Just in Case

By Rick Taylor

Just in case you haven’t been paying attention, this is what has happened in the last few decades.

• Under the smoke screen of globalization, international corporations have destroyed much of the productive capacity in the United States by moving production operations overseas.  The ultimate goal of globalization is the destruction of the economic independence and thus sovereignty of all nations by making them dependent on an international economic system created by a cartel of international corporations and offshore banks.  The ultimate, ultimate goal is the millennia long dream of a global government run by aforementioned corporations and banks.  The one thing that stood firmly in the way of this goal was the American middle class.  The power of this group had to be eliminated. 

• The American educational system was compromised with the goal of “dumbing down the public”, destroying family values, downplaying math and science curriculums, and emphasizing useless situational programs.  Now that Johnny and Suzy can’t read, or write, or do much math, you can say their program worked like a charm.

• Government agencies have been caught smuggling both cocaine and heroin into the country through the support, control, and cover of crime syndicates.  The War on Drugs has only managed to make drugs cheaper and easier to get.  However, the size and power of government agencies that are suppose to stop drugs have only grown.  As a result the majority of the prison population, which by percent is the largest in the world, now consists of non-violent, possession only, drug offenders.  If the elimination of drugs was the goal of the War on Drugs, well the war has been a failure.  But if the goal was the corporate/government control of drugs along with the trillions of dollars in profits that this business has generated, well the war was a great success.  The destruction of several generations of lower economic class citizens was just an extra bonus.

• A welfare state was created along with its subsequent, generational welfare victims.  They will never be able to break out of their poverty situation and thus will always be dependent on the state.  War on Poverty is another failed government war unless its real goal was the enslavement, destruction, and neutralization of millions of people.  For this the war was a great success. 

Veteran’s Day. We should all thank our veterans and current servicemen and women for their service to our country. That is and always will be a “no-brainer”. But over the past several years, after studying what is really going on in the world, I think we can best serve our military, just as they serve us, by making absolutely sure that their mission is in the best interest of their/our country, and not special interest groups or international corporations.

If our country’s leaders really appreciated our military, they would not allow them to be so abused. When they use our military for nation building, international politics, and guarding poppy fields in Afghanistan, our military is abused. When whoever is in the White House sends our troops overseas to serve as United Nation “peacekeepers”, they abuse our military. When our military is sent off to war without a Declaration of War by Congress, our military is abused.

\When our government can spend billions and even trillions of dollars for military bases and embassies in Iraq and now Afghanistan but cannot maintain safe and sanitary veteran’s hospitals, our military is abused. When our military is forced to take untested vaccines, that make most of them sick, they are abused. When certain government and military officials have interest in companies that sell these multi-million dollar vaccine contracts to the military and thus profit enormously, they abuse our military. When our government allows our military to be exposed to chemicals and the residue from depleted uranium munitions, they abuse our military. When our troops later become veterans and our government often refuses to treat, or even test them for illnesses caused by vaccines, chemicals, and depleted uranium, they abuse our military.

When our supposed enemy, the Taliban, receives American tax dollars, in the form of protection money from companies that bring supplies to our troops, our military is abused. You can call it the cost of doing business, paying off the enemy, so they will let the supplies go through. When this money keeps the Taliban in business, our military is not only confused but abused. When the Taliban is seen being ferried around the country in helicopters supplied by Western companies, our military is abused. If the Taliban is hiding out Al Qaeda and Osama, our enemies, what in the hell are they doing receiving our money?

When there is nearly unanimous agreement from our current political class that our military forces should be kept in the Middle East and now Central Asia as an occupational force year after year, decade after decade, they are abused. To cancel their retirement and extend their duty beyond original contracts is abuse. Whey they reduce the standards of recruits in order to accommodate even felony criminals and foreign nationals, our military is abused. When they send our National Guard off to defend the borders of Iraq, while leaving our own borders open to potential terrorists, drug smuggling, and criminals, they are abused. I could go on and on and on.

The purpose of our military is not to insure the profits or protect the operations of U.S corporations operating in foreign countries. They should not die for KBR, Halliburton, the Carlysle Group, Exxon-Mobil, British Petroleum, Blackwater, Monsanto, etc. I know my critics will say that our military is keeping us safe from islamo-fascists. Is this really true? Have you ever stopped to think about the fact that our borders are open and have been, like, forever? If you were the president and you told us that the enemy hates our freedoms and wants to kill us, wouldn’t you first close the damn door to the country. TSA can strip search granny at the airport, but over one million people a year cross our border and no one in our Homeland Security cares. Perhaps there is a good reason they don’t care.

I will come out and say it. Peace in the world is not the purpose of the U.S. military. Our military’s purpose is to defend the people and property of the United States of America. And the people and property are at home. Anything other than that is an abuse of our military. Legendary Marine Corp General Smedley Butler, author of “War is a Racket”, said that there are only two things we should fight for. “The defense of our homes and the Bill of Rights”. Anything other than that is an abuse of our military. He said, "For a great many years as a soldier, I had a suspicion that war was a racket. Not until I retired to civil life did I fully realize it." He defined a racket as "something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small ‘inside’ group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes. “

More words from General Butler, “I spent 33 years and four months in active military service, and during that period I spent most of my time as a high-class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I helped make Mexico, and especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers in 1902–1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.” He said: "I wouldn’t go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights"

From Alan Greenspan's new book, The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World. He writes "I am saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil." Not necessarily to produce that oil, but for Western oil companies to control it. By keeping it off the world market, oil prices and thus their profits are maximized. And also having all those permanent military bases in Iraq is a prime directive for the neo-con think tank, Project for a New American Century (PNAC), in their document Rebuilding America’s Defenses.

The last administration threatened military action in Afghanistan before 9/11 because of the Taliban’s reluctance to sign a pipeline contract to move Caspian basin oil to market. The Taliban was told, "Either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold, or we bury you under a carpet of bombs." You know what happened next. This is something you don’t know about. Before the war, the Taliban, with UN support, had almost wiped out all opium production in Afghanistan. Now that production is back up to what is was before the invasion. Right now almost all of the opium production in the world coming from this area. This is a 500 billion dollar a year business. The opium/heroin winds up in Europe and America and the money winds up being laundered in international banks. You really think some local Afghan warlords/drug smugglers can make this happen? And I am not for the Taliban. I am just trying to find out the truth as to why our soldiers are there risking their lives.

Most of you are saying, this guy has lost his mind. Where is he getting this stuff? Well I get it by not watching TV news or reading newspapers. Most of it comes right from the “horse’s mouth”, from the soldiers themselves. And from other researchers and writers who love our country and freedom more than they fear those who are calling the shots. You may also think that I am some anti-war liberal. NO WAY. I am simply pro-just-war.

Each and every one of you can support our military by opening you eyes and hearts to what is going on in the world. The current Congress is beyond help. Only you can demand that our military, who just happen to be our children and grandchildren, only serve a righteous cause. And believe me, what you think is going on in the world is not even close to reality.

Have you heard what Henry Kissinger said about the military? From two books, Kiss the Boys Goodbye: How the United States Betrayed Its Own POW’s in Vietnam and The Final Days; he said “military men are dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns for foreign policy”. He has never refuted that statement. Just like you, this makes my blood boil. Kissinger is a globalist, sadistic pig. Yet every administration and most of the Congress in the last 4 decades absolutely revere this man. They bow down to him. This is the ultimate abuse of our military. Only you can stop this.

Why Do We Have Problems?

“At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reaches us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher.” Abraham Lincoln

You got to believe me when I say; “our country is hanging by a thread”. So you don’t understand why we don’t have a real choice among the people that run for high public office? Why our elected representatives seem to always look out for themselves first? How they can go into office with barely anything and come out with millions in assets on a Congressman’s salary? And they seem to always have a six-figure salary job waiting for them when they decide to retire from public service?

“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government, which is the true ruling power of our country. We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of.” Edward Bernays, Propaganda, 1928

There is the growing divide between the political elite of this country and the average citizen even though the average citizen does not realize it yet. The political divide of the future may no longer be that of conservative versus liberal, certainly not in the conventional sense. The battle from here forward is likely to be drawn between traditionalists - those who believe in the sovereign, constitutional republic given to us by our founders; and the globalists – for whom such things as national borders, languages, cultures and national governments are irrelevant. Despite their patriot platitudes globalist’s ideas and actions concerning America and its future run contrary to most of its citizens. It is just that the citizens are asleep. Almost all of our leaders are globalists and for decades now this has be so. How it came to be is an incredible story. It is a part of history that has been omitted, by design, from conventional history.

“In the next century, nations as we know it will be obsolete; all states will recognize a single, global authority. National sovereignty wasn’t such a great idea after all.” Strobe Talbot, President Clinton’s Deputy Secretary of State, as quoted in Time, July 20th, l992.

The following evidence is part and parcel to an ongoing plan by certain powerful individuals, groups of individuals, and certain institutions that conspired many, many years ago to put into motion plans that would ultimately end in the creation of a one world governing body, a New World Order. It is still going on today and it is the one underlying reason why we have all of the problems we have.

Dr. Carroll Quigley, Professor of History, Georgetown University

“I know of the operation of this network because I have studied it for twenty years and was permitted for two years during the 1960’s to examine its papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it or to most of its aims and have for much of my life been close to it and too many of its instruments. In general my chief difference of opinion is that it wishes to remain unknown.”

“The Rhodes scholarship established by the terms of Cecil Rhodes’ seventh will are known to everyone. What is not so widely know is that Rhodes, in five previous wills, left his fortune to form a secret society, which was to devote itself to the preservation and expansion of the British Empire. And what does not seem to be known to anyone is that this secret society…continues to exist to this day. To be sure, it is not a childish thing like the Ku Klux Klan, and it does not have any secret robes, secret handclasps, or secret passwords. It does not need any of these, since its members know each other intimately. It probably has no oaths of secrecy or any formal procedure of initiation. It does, however, exist and holds secret meetings… This Group is, as I shall show, one of the most important facts of the twentieth century”.

In Quigley’s words, the goal of this secret society was:

“…nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. The system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basil, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world’s central banks which themselves private corporations. Each central bank…sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world”.

How are they achieving their goals? By control both political parties.

“The argument that the two political parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps of the Right and the other the Left, is a foolish idea. Instead the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can ‘throw the rascals out’ at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy….It should be able to replace it, every four years if necessary, by the other party, which…will pursue with new vigor, approximately the same basic policies.”

This is the bottom line truth. The purpose of a two party system is the maintenance of the political cartel. Within this framework, viable alternatives can be marginalized thus assuring the continuation of the status quo.

What does any of this have to do with our modern day problems such as recession, inflation, war, drugs, illiteracy, poverty, open borders, terrorism, etc. etc.? The elite know that we, being freedom loving Americans, will not go for all of their feudalist control of the government, economy, and our everyday lives. So they have to create the circumstances by which the “masses will cry out for order and stability”. Their mantra throughout the decades has been Ordo ab chao, “order out of chaos”. That is what is happening today. All of the problems we have today are the result of decades of work. That’s right, our problems just don’t happen. The best way to describe it is Problem, Reaction, Solution. This is from what is called the Hegelian Dialectic or Thesis, Antithesis, Synthesis.  If this comes to fruition, it will be the end of free humanity.

If you wanted to make changes to a society that you knew the public would reject and would probably call for a hangman if they knew you wanted to do it, you through manipulation of events, would create a problem, which would naturally provoke a predetermined reaction from the public. You then use your power of controlling/owning the mass media to play up such problem, whereby causing the reaction you want that “something must be done”. Then you introduce your solution.

The current recession or soon to be decade long depression was simply engineered by the same group that is now offering their solution.  Their solution?  International control of banking and the economy.  After the dollar melts away to nothing, the introduction of a new regional currency, the Amero.  Then on to a world currency.  Now you gotta have a world government to run the show and a world police force to control society and a world military.  I hope  you get the picture.  Oh, your carbon taxes will pay for your new world government.

“We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attend our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.” David Rockefeller, Bilderberg Meeting, 1991

“We operate here under directives which emulate (sic) from the White House … The substance of the directives under which we operate is that we shall use our grant making power to alter life in the United States so that we can comfortably be merged with the Soviet Union.” — Rowan Gaither, President of the Ford Foundation, 1954.

“Today, America would be outraged if UN troops entered Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told that there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real of promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all people of the world will plead to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by the World Government.” Henry Kissinger, Bilderberg Conference, 1991

What else do the conspirators have to say about it?

”The world can therefore seize the opportunity [Persian Gulf crisis] to fulfill the long-held promise of a New World Order where diverse nations are drawn together in common cause to achieve the universal aspirations of mankind.” George Herbert Walker Bush

“We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis and the nations will accept the New World Order.” David Rockefeller, 1994

“For more than a century ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents such as my encounter with Castro to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure–one world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.” David Rockefeller, Memoirs, 2002

Bottom-Up Government versus Top-Down Government
By Rick Taylor

“A government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have….The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases.” Thomas Jefferson. (Ronald Reagan said nearly the same thing).

The Founders of our country had a vision of a country totally in tune with natural laws. They had studied all of the great philosophers throughout the ages, all of who wrote about natural law. To them, God’s law and natural law were essentially the same. Natural law was God’s will expressed.

Our Declaration of Independence’s opening paragraph, “When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Law of Nature and Nature’s God entitle them”.

They were highly educated individuals who realized that if separation from the most powerful nation in the world the British Empire were possible, the world would never be the same. They had a very clear understanding of indigenous power, the power of the individual; and surrogate power, the power of the state. The document they created clearly states who has the power and who does not:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. “

In case you missed it, "we the people" are the governed.  Understanding the difference between surrogate power and indigenous power is the key to liberation from any surrogate power that is out of control. Surrogates use force and deception to create the illusion of power. However, the only true source of power is the individual. That is what the Founders created, Bottom-Up Government. Our country thrived with this type of government until around 1913. It wasn't perfect, but when compared to the rest of the world, this was the place to be. Then things began to change gradually to what we have today, Top-Down Government.

As a result of this shift to top-down, command and control, force-based government, Americans have less freedom every day. Remember this, throughout history there is never a time when power relinquishes itself: it just grows and grows until the people wake up and realize what has happened to them. It is too bad that there is usually much bloodshed when people begin to resist and throw off this power.  Perhaps there would be no to little bloodshed if people were just a little more diligent and paid more attention to who they were being governed by.

These are the Top 10 Characteristics of Bottom-Up versus Top-Down societies. Stop and think which kind of world we now have and what kind you want to live in. Love or Fear. Freedom or Control. Non-coercion or Force. Local Control or Centralized Planning. Abundant Creativity or Stifled Creativity. Optimism or Despair. Strong Families or Breakdown of Families. Personal Responsibility or Dependence. Universal Opportunity or Concentrated Power. Prosperity or Poverty.

“Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak, and that it is doing God’s service when it is violating all his laws.” John Adams

“Life, Liberty, and Property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that Life, Liberty, and Property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place.” Frederic Bastiat
