I first ran across this Youtube.com clip yesterday. At first I felt somewhat vindicated to hear former Bill Clinton adviser and Fox News contributor Dick Morris proclaim thatpeople like me “have been crazy, but now they’re right. It’s happening.”
“People like me” are those who according to Morris “have been yelling, ‘Oh, the UN is going to take over, global government.’” Hannity added, “Conspiracy theorists.”
What were these “conspiracy theorists” right about? Morris proclaimed on the April 1, 2009 Hannity show that the G20 Summit in London includes planning “to put our Fed and our SEC under the control, in effect, of the IMF.”
Hannity expanded on Morris’s point by adding “…Geithner said he would be open to the idea of a global currency…those conspiracy people…had suggested that for years. You’re not wrong!”
Later, I felt less vindicated by Morris’s comments and more sad and frustrated; many still consider this information crazy when all that’s necessary is to pay attention to alternative media and read the globalists own documents and listen to their own statements. None of this is a secret. No one is forcing the American people to dismiss this information until the mainstream media talks about it!
Here’s a good Web site to start with that helps people break through denial about global government. Not only is this a professional and well-sourced site but the man who runs it, Alex Jones, also has a great radio show which can be accessed at that site.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I don’t agree with everything Jones says. I try not to check my critical thinking skills at the door no matter who I’m listening to. However, I believe Jones provides a valuable service to our society, because he’s willing to look at information and come up with uncomfortable conclusions.
Also as I’ve said before, I believe Naomi Wolf provides a similar service; it’s nice to have both sides of the political spectrum represented!
Jones sometimes gets callers who may be a little too enthusiastic about what a great guy Jones is. Jones often responds by asking what’s so great about someone who can “read the TV Guide?”
I’ll try to illustrate what I think he means by that with this example, taken from the “G20 Summit Meeting in London” link above.
Please read these excerpts from an essay by Harvard Professor Richard N. Cooper: “‘I suggest a radical alternative scheme for the next century: the creation of a common currency for all of the industrial democracies, with a common monetary policy and a joint Bank of Issue to determine that monetary policy.‘ [Emphasis in original]
“‘How can independent states accomplish that? They need to turn over the determination of monetary policy to a supranational body.’ (Emphasis added)”
Does any of this sound familiar so far?
Cooper goes on to write, “‘This one-currency regime is much too radical to envisage in the near future,” he said. “But it is not too radical to envisage 25 years from now….’”
When and where was the above published? In the Fall 1984 issue of Foreign Affairs, the journal of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).
I think this is an example of what Jones means by “reading the TV Guide.”
However, I believe Jones is too modest. People aren’t in denial about what’s going to be on TV. (” Oh look, a re-run of Seinfeld!”) No one has a vested psychological interest in disbelieving TV schedules. This makes Jones’s job very, very challenging, although more and more people are waking up. (People are getting angry, which is working wonders, and we’re just getting warmed up!)
See you next time, hopefully before the next blizzard hits!
Blog update, 04-07-09: G20 Unsuccessful in Implementing IMF Regulations on Fed and SEC.
Here’s a quote from a Rapid City Journal article entitled, “Time to come down from G-20 Summit,” page E3 of the 04-05-09 edition: “France and Germany were instrumental in blocking the Obama initiative but then, they did not get their main objective either-a global supranational regulatory body to oversee the world’s largest financial institutions.”
Quote of the Week: “Human progress is furthered not by conformity, but by aberration.”
In several prior blogs, I’ve noted the alarming executive orders and policy changes that seem to suggest that the U.S. may be moving from an open society to a closed one-from a constitutional republic to some form of tyranny.
I’m now suggesting that these moves may be leading up to the implementation of a North American Union tying Canada, the U.S. and Mexico together with open borders and one currency. I wonder if the next step could be global governance and if our current economic crisis may be used somehow as a catalyst-a pretext-to eventually bring all of this about.
The Wall Street Journal’s Market Watch ran an article on Tuesday, Jan. 28 2009 stating that Uniting U.S., Canada, Mexico money could result from crisis. The article also said that, The New World Order is upon us, full of hope, promise and a fair amount of fear.
As previously posted, the respected Financial Times of London also ran a recent commentary considering the increased likelihood of world government due to the financial crisis and other factors.
The above articles are well-done, but failed to cover the news items below, which lend credence to the idea that we could be headed for historic and unconstitutional changes in how our government functions.
Unfortunately, most Americans are still unaware that 4,700 troops were deployed stateside on Oct. 1, 2008; that Congress was threatened a few days later with martial law if the No Banker Left Behind Bail-out wasn’t passed; that the Pentagon has admitted that 20 thousand more troops are on the way for deployment stateside-duties to include civil unrest and crowd control; that Congress-even members of the Homeland Security Committee-have been denied access to executive branch continuity of government plans (PDD 51) (aka, NSPD 51) which authorize martial law; that American citizens can be declared enemy combatants and lose their constitutional rights-even if they’ve never left our country (Military Commissions Act of 2006); that evidence of detention camps being constructed or refurbished-potentially to confine American citizens-goes back to 1999, before the attacks of 9/11; that HR 45 calls for gun licensing and registration; that if/when reintroduced and passed, HR 1022 would allow Attorney General Eric Holder-who is an anti-second amendment activist-to confiscate virtually any firearm he chooses from the American people. The list goes on and on.
Don’t feel bad if you haven’t heard about all this. If you want to hold your breath waiting to see the mainstream media put all these puzzle pieces together for you, you’re going to turn blue and keel over.
The agenda setting mainstream media is complicit in keeping the American people from seeing the big picture. (Note for those who haven’t read Chomsky: The Rapid City Journal isn’t part of the agenda setting mainstream media. If they were, this blog probably would’ve been shut down by now, or more likely, never offered in the first place.)
Based on the comments I’ve received, a minority of my readers still think the prospect of global governance is something to laugh about and ridicule. Even if these people are paid posters, hopefully this blog will help quell the laughter and bring about what we need instead: motivation to hold our leaders accountable, especially in regard to respecting our Constitution.
Now onto my headline: Legislation has been introduced in the form of House Resolution 645 that lends credence to the story about detention camps for American citizens, as discussed in this San Francisco Chronicle article and other publications.
As noted by infowars.com, the National Emergency Centers Act or HR 645 mandates the establishment of national emergency centers to be located on military installations for the purpose of providing temporary housing, medical, and humanitarian assistance to individuals and families dislocated due to an emergency or major disaster, according to the bill.
The legislation also states that the camps will be used to provide centralized locations to improve the coordination of preparedness, response, and recovery efforts of government, private, and not-for-profit entities and faith-based organizations.
Ominously, the bill also states that the camps can be used to meet other appropriate needs, as determined by the Secretary of Homeland Security, an open ended mandate which many fear could mean the forced detention of American citizens in the event of widespread rioting after a national emergency or total economic collapse.
Will the camps be used to detain American citizens who are declared enemy combatants and stripped of their constitutional rights?
Since the Army Times originally reported that the battle-hardened troops to be deployed stateside would be responsible for civil unrest and crowd control, this also raises the suspicions of many people regarding the use of these camps.
If troops were deployed stateside on Oct. 1 because of terrorism fears, why weren’t they sent until over seven years after the 911 attacks?
Is it possible that late last year, certain elements within our government knew more about what was coming than they told us?
Now, I’m sure there are explanations for all of this, but would they be true If the Constitution was still in place to protect Habeus Corpus from arbitrary revocation by the executive branch (Military Commissions Act of 2006), and Congress was allowed access to all of PDD 51, and if the Posse Comitatus statutes hadn’t been subverted, etc., etc., etc., I would feel much more comfortable.
As things stand, I wonder if certain elements of our government are gaslighting us and then providing us with the solutions they want to ease the anxiety they created. Could this be a deliberate strategy to implement policies and consolidate power in a way that Americans wouldn’t otherwise accept?!
Our country seems to be establishing the framework for socialism and tyranny!
Is the banker bailout a fraud that was never intended to help?!
If this is true, then I believe we will see more bail-outs approved even when we have proof that they don’t work.
For an eye-opening and fascinating lecture, please scroll down and listen to New York Times best-selling author Naomi Wolf discuss the 10 signs that an open society is transforming into a closed one. Wolf has studied history and sees all ten signs occurring today in the United States. I tend to agree with her.
Hearing a politically liberal person passionately defend the 2nd Amendment at 23:06 is worth the price of admission alone! Which would be, let’s see, ZERO! What a bargain!
Please keep in mind that when Wolf made this defense of the 2nd Amendment she was worried primarily about Blackwater Security.
Now there are 4,700 Army troops stationed stateside with another 20,000 admitted to be on the way, as I wrote earlier. I predict that we’ll see more than another 20,000 and sooner than 2011.
Wolf also gave this lecture before the banker bail-outs were even dreamed about. I think these facts make her presentation even more prescient.
Please check it out!
CALL TO ACTION: Please contact your U.S. Representative (Stephanie Herseth-Sandlin for South Dakota) and politely ask him/her how the abuse of these new governmental powers is going to be limited.
I recommend that PDD 51 (aka, NSPD 51) would be a good starting point. As I wrote earlier, this is the directive that includes executive branch continuity of government plans authorizing physical martial law in America, in the event of a catastrophic emergency.
The Homeland Security Committee and the entire Congress have been denied access to the classified portions of this document! THIS IS NOT THE AMERICAN WAY! Here’s a link to the clip I referred to earlier regarding PDD 51. Please ask Rep. Herseth Sandlin if congressional hearings on this power grab are forthcoming. WE NEED SOME ACCOUNTABILITY!

Contact Kim and Don with VOH at : kim_don2001@yahoo.com
Put in the subject line, “Film Suggestion,” and ask them if they would please consider The End of America, and if you’d like, please add why you think this film is important for VOH to show to the Rapid City community.
Thanks to everyone who writes!
Please check out the Youtube video below featuring the trailer for Naomi Wolf’s new documentary film.
We can get the film below shown at the Elks Theatre in Rapid City! Please contact Kim and Don and encourage VOH to show it! The agenda-setting mainstream media in the U.S. is not doing their job, so I believe we MUST step up to the plate to get the word out!
Quote of the Week: “A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves.”
~Edward R. Murrow
Does anyone else see the irony of a (Naomi) “Wolf” warning us about the “wolves” in the government? Is this the Universe’s/God’s sense of humor? Anyway…
PS: Check out this music video featuring A Perfect Circle at 2:13 for the sequence with the hooded sheep running around scaring the other sheep. (Be forewarned, it is graphic.) I see this as a metaphor for the reaction to the sort of warnings I talk about in this blog. Like the sheep that run away from the black ones, a certain percentage of the population will run away from what people like me say but won’t bother to check the facts and seriously consider them because of fear and/or denial. That, I believe, is the true source of the laughter in some cases.
If you’d like to hear ideas similar to what Naomi Wolf has to say but would rather hear it from a more politically conservative source, I recommend the following documentary from Alex Jones, which is available for free viewing on Google video. Please keep in mind that I don’t agree with everything Jones says and he’s not known for subtlety! However, he is good at citing sources for many of the allegations he makes and he’s obviously very intelligent and articulate, similar to Wolf-just with a different flavor.
If you like Police State 3: Total Enslavement, you can find more videos at Google video and Youtube, or you can go to his Websites to find more information at www.infowars.com or www.prisonplanet.com
Another good conservative voice is former Presidential candidate Ron Paul.
I don’t approach this topic from a religious perspective, but I want to start off by saying that my Christian fundamentalist grandmother has been talking about a coming one-world government since I was a child in the 1970s.
While I am skeptical that what she told me was divinely inspired, the time has come for people to get serious on this topic.
One of the most respected newspapers in the world, the Financial Times of London, ran an opinion piece in their Dec. 8, 2008 issue with the title, And now for a world government.
The columnist, Gideon Rachman, wrote that, for the first time in my life, I think the formation of some sort of world government is plausible.
He stated that a world government is now possible because of the transport and communications revolutions that have shrunk the world.
He cited problems like global warming, a global financial crisis and a global war on terror as motivating factors for global governance.
Ominously, Rachman also wrote that, “International governance tends to be effective, only when it is anti-democratic.
Tyranny is necessary for a world government to function effectively? Is he trying to say that tyranny is good?
I hope no one’s laughing at this point.
Rachman claimed that there has been a change in the political atmosphere related to the financial crisis and climate change, which is pushing national governments towards global solutions, even in countries such as China and the U.S. that are traditionally fierce guardians of national sovereignty.
He built a case that Mr. Obama is friendlier to the U.N. and global governance than Bush, partially by noting that John Podesta, the man heading Obama’s transition team is a member of the Managing Global Insecurity (MGI) project.
A report by the MGI project argues for the creation of a U.N. high commissioner for counter-terrorist activity, a legally binding climate-change agreement negotiated under the auspices of the U.N. and the creation of a 50,000-strong U.N. peacekeeping force. Once countries had pledged troops to this reserve army, the U.N. would have first call upon them.
The MGI report also advises globalists on language to use in order to keep Americans from reaching for their rifles.
The report recommends using the term responsible sovereignty instead of the European term, shared sovereignty and the term global governance instead of world government.
Rachman quotes Jacques Attali, an advisor to French President Sarkozy, as saying that the core of the international financial crisis is that we have global financial markets and no global rule of law. It comes as no surprise then that Attali sees global government as a solution.
My opinion is that global government is coming in terms of years rather than decades, and that if the financial crisis doesn’t get severe enough to bring it about (but I think it will), then we’ll have another world war and/or catastrophic terrorist attack to help usher it in.
To sum up, we are entering a period of time which, like the 1930s and 40s, will be dominated by financial crisis and war. I expectthis possibility more than I fear it; my real fear is that the situation will be worse than last time.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!
I’m afraid this will be our last relatively easy holiday season for a very long time.
For more information: As you might expect, Rachman received some very passionate input from readers regarding his world government article. His thoughts about this and reader comments can be found at his blog, entitled, “Final thoughts on the world government row.”
Quote of the week:
“Dissenters who tell their fellow citizens what is really going on are subject to smear campaigns that, like clockwork, are aimed at the political heretic. Truth is treason in the empire of lies.”
Oklahoma passed House Joint Resolution 1089 in an effort to force the Federal government to abide by the U.S. Constitution. The state legislature effectively blasted the Federal government for sticking its nose into business that the Constitution says IS the purview of the states.
This story broke over the summer, but only recently came to my attention; that’s why I felt it qualified as the “Buried News of the Week,” even though it’s technically old news. (Did anyone hear about it?)
Expect to see movements like this gaining strength as conditions deteriorate and we lose more of our constitutional rights. Although our transition to tyranny and socialism is accelerating, when people and states get hit hard enough in their wallets and with disappearing freedoms, people will stand up very powerfully for what they believe.
