Paul Craig Roberts Explains "How Conspiracy Theories Really Work"

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-13...ies-really-work

Aug 13, 2017

------- some quotes --------------

"The explanations imposed on us by the ruling class are themselves conspiracy theories. Moreover, they are conspiracy theories designed to hide the real conspiracy that our rulers are operating.

"911...Is it a believable conspiracy? The ability of a few young Muslim men to pull off such a feat is unbelievable.

"Moreover, there is no evidence to support the official conspiracy theory of 9/11. Indeed, all known evidence contradicts the official conspiracy theory.

"For example, it is a proven fact that Building 7 came down at freefall acceleration, which means it was wired for demolition. Why was it wired for demolition? There is no official answer to this question.

"It is the known evidence provided by scientists, architects, engineers, pilots, and the first responders who were in the twin towers and personally experienced the numerous explosions that brought down the towers that is described as a conspiracy theory.

"The CIA introduced the term «conspiracy theory» into public discourse as part of its action plan to discredit skeptics of the Warren Commission report on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Any explanation other than the one handed down was debunked as a conspiracy theory.

"Conspiracy theories are the backbone of US foreign policy. For example, the George W. Bush regime was active in a conspiracy against Iraq and Saddam Hussein. The Bush regime created fake evidence of Iraqi «weapons of mass destruction», sold the false story to a gullible world and used it to destroy Iraq and murder its leader. Similarly, Gaddafi was a victim of an Obama/Hillary conspiracy to destroy Libya and murder Gaddafi. Assad of Syria and Iran were slated for the same treatment until the Russians intervened.

"Currently, Washington is engaged in conspiracies against Russia, China, and Venezuela. Proclaiming a non-existent «Iranian threat», Washington put US missiles on Russia’s border and used the «North Korean threat» to put missiles on China’s border. The democratically elected leader of Venezuela is said by Washington to be a dictator, and sanctions have been put on Venezuela to help the small Spanish elite through whom Washington has traditionally ruled South American countries pull of a coup and reestablish US control over Venezuela.

"Everyone is a threat: Venezuela, Yemen, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, tribes in Pakistan, Libya, Russia, China, North Korea, but never Washington. The greatest conspiracy theory of our time is that Americans are surrounded by foreign threats. We are not even safe from Venezuela.

"The New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN, NPR, and the rest of the presstitutes are quick to debunk as conspiracy theories all explanations that differ from the explanations of the ruling interests that they serve.

"This conspiracy theory has no evidence whatsoever. It doesn’t need evidence, because it serves the interests of the military/security complex, the Democratic Party, the neoconservatives, and permits the presstitutes to show lavish devotion to their masters. By endless repetition a lie becomes truth.

There is a conspiracy, and it is against the American people. Their jobs have been offshored in order to enrich the already rich. They have been forced into debt in a futile effort to maintain their living standards. Their effort to stem their decline by electing a president who spoke for them is being subverted before their eyes by an utterly corrupt media and ruling class.

"If liberty continues to exist on earth, it will not be in the Western world. It will be in Russia and China, countries that emerged out of the opposite and know the value of liberty, and it will be in those South American countries, such as Venezuela, Ecuador, and Bolivia that fight for their sovereignty against American oppression.

Quote:
In the United States «conspiracy theory» is the name given to explanations that differ from those that serve the ruling oligarchy, the establishment or whatever we want to call those who set and control the agendas and the explanations that support the agendas.

The explanations imposed on us by the ruling class are themselves conspiracy theories. Moreover, they are conspiracy theories designed to hide the real conspiracy that our rulers are operating.

For example, the official explanation of 9/11 is a conspiracy theory. Some Muslims, mainly Saudi Arabians, delivered the greatest humiliation to a superpower since David slew Goliath. They outsmarted all 17 US intelligence agencies and those of NATO and Israel, the National Security Council, the Transportation Safety Administration, Air Traffic Control, and Dick Cheney, hijacked four US airliners on one morning, brought down three World Trade Center skyscrapers, destroyed that part of the Pentagon where research was underway into the missing $2.3 billion, and caused the morons in Washington to blame Afghanistan instead of Saudi Arabia.

Clearly, the Saudi Arabians who humiliated America were involved in a conspiracy to do so.

Is it a believable conspiracy?

The ability of a few young Muslim men to pull off such a feat is unbelievable. Such total failure of the US National Security State means that America was blindly vulnerable throughout the decades of Cold War with the Soviet Union. If such total failure of the National Security State had really occurred, the White House and Congress would have been screaming for an investigation. People would have been held accountable for the long chain of security failures that allowed the plot to succeed. Instead, no one was even reprimanded, and the White House resisted all efforts for an investigation for a year. Finally, to shut up the 9/11 families, a 9/11 Commission was convened. The commission duly wrote down the government’s story and that was the «investigation».

Moreover, there is no evidence to support the official conspiracy theory of 9/11. Indeed, all known evidence contradicts the official conspiracy theory.

For example, it is a proven fact that Building 7 came down at freefall acceleration, which means it was wired for demolition. Why was it wired for demolition? There is no official answer to this question.

It is the known evidence provided by scientists, architects, engineers, pilots, and the first responders who were in the twin towers and personally experienced the numerous explosions that brought down the towers that is described as a conspiracy theory.

The CIA introduced the term «conspiracy theory» into public discourse as part of its action plan to discredit skeptics of the Warren Commission report on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Any explanation other than the one handed down was debunked as a conspiracy theory.

Conspiracy theories are the backbone of US foreign policy. For example, the George W. Bush regime was active in a conspiracy against Iraq and Saddam Hussein. The Bush regime created fake evidence of Iraqi «weapons of mass destruction», sold the false story to a gullible world and used it to destroy Iraq and murder its leader. Similarly, Gaddafi was a victim of an Obama/Hillary conspiracy to destroy Libya and murder Gaddafi. Assad of Syria and Iran were slated for the same treatment until the Russians intervened.

Everyone is a threat: Venezuela, Yemen, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, tribes in Pakistan, Libya, Russia, China, North Korea, but never Washington. The greatest conspiracy theory of our time is that Americans are surrounded by foreign threats. We are not even safe from Venezuela.

The New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN, NPR, and the rest of the presstitutes are quick to debunk as conspiracy theories all explanations that differ from the explanations of the ruling interests that they serve.

Yet, as I write and for some nine months to date, the presstitute media has been promoting the conspiracy theory that Donald Trump was involved in a conspiracy with the president of Russia and Russian intelligence services to hack the US presidential election and place Trump, a Russian agent, in the White House.

This conspiracy theory has no evidence whatsoever. It doesn’t need evidence, because it serves the interests of the military/security complex, the Democratic Party, the neoconservatives, and permits the presstitutes to show lavish devotion to their masters. By endless repetition a lie becomes truth.

There is a conspiracy, and it is against the American people. Their jobs have been offshored in order to enrich the already rich. They have been forced into debt in a futile effort to maintain their living standards. Their effort to stem their decline by electing a president who spoke for them is being subverted before their eyes by an utterly corrupt media and ruling class.

Sooner or later it will dawn on them that there is nothing they can do but violently revolt. Most likely, by the time they reach this conclusion it will be too late.

For the gullible and naive who have been brainwashed into believing that any explanation that differs from the officially-blessed one is a conspiracy theory, there are available online long lists of government conspiracies that succeeded in deceiving the people in order that the governments could achieve agendas that the people would have rejected.

If liberty continues to exist on earth, it will not be in the Western world. It will be in Russia and China, countries that emerged out of the opposite and know the value of liberty, and it will be in those South American countries, such as Venezuela, Ecuador, and Bolivia that fight for their sovereignty against American oppression.

Indeed, as historians unconcerned with their careers are beginning to write, the primary lesson in history is that governments deceive their peoples.

Everywhere in the Western world, government is a conspiracy against the people.

My comment : Charlottesville riots is a staged event called "Agitprop" are an attempt to delay coming global financial changes and to overthrow Trump. However, since the Lord has other plans; Mystery[Secret] Babylon plans will fail once again.

Here's a few links of interesting articles and you-tubes about it.

My comment : This is highly interesting relating to the coming great sign in the heaven : the eclipse on Monday, Aug 21. This eclipse leads to the 2nd great sign in the heaven on Sept 23 when the Virgin(virgo) giving birth to Jupiter (“The King’s Planet”).

The seven Salems affected by the coming Eclipse

https://gods-kingdom-ministries.net/dail...coming-eclipse/
Stephen Jones
Aug 19th, 2017

Quote:
There are 7 cities called “Salem” that will be affected by the solar eclipse on August 21.

http://blog.chrisify.com/2017/08/the-seven-salems-of-eclipse-coincidence.html?m=1

1. Salem, Oregon

2. Salem, Idaho

3. Salem, Wyoming (not mentioned on most maps; just on Google Earth)

4. Salem, Nebraska

5. Salem, Missouri

6. Salem, Kentucky

7. Salem, South Carolina

What does this signify? Well, first of all, Salem is the Hebrew word for “peace.” Jerusalem, or Ieru-salem means “City of Peace.”

An eclipse has never been a positive sign throughout history. It has always been seen as a sign of judgment or death in some manner. So we might interpret this to mean the death of peace, or peace being taken from the earth.

I recall when the Concorde crashed in Paris on July 25, 2000, and I heard the word, “Peace has been taken from the earth.” The pilot’s name was Christian Marti (“martyr”). At the same time, the peace talks between Israeli Prime Minister Barak and Palestinian leader, Yassir Arafat, collapsed when they could not agree over the status of Jerusalem. And so, 414 days later, on September 11, 2001, peace was indeed taken from the earth, and America entered into a perpetual state of war known as the “war on terror.” In reality, it was the start of the new Reign of Terror within the US government itself, much like what happened in the French Revolution from 1789-1794. The Deep State loves to control the narrative by calling things the opposite of what they really are.

This peace-destroying eclipse may also refer to the earthly Jerusalem itself. Though the eclipse will not be visible in Jerusalem, it is visible in seven cities of Salem here in the USA.

Witches love eclipses, because they signify the light being cut off and plunging the world into darkness. There are little known energies in times like these that witches love to harness for their own devious purposes. So there is no doubt that many of them will be meeting to pray to their gods and cast spells and hexes.

We ourselves have a divine court date at the same time (August 21) to repent and to oppose the powers of darkness. We have noticed recently that the powers of darkness are starting to come to the surface where they can be discerned and dealt with. Then two days later, August 23, will be our Renewing the Covenant prayer campaign.

If you recall from Secrets of Time, Abraham was born 1948 years from Adam. The covenant with Abraham was made when he was 70 years old—the year 2018 from Adam. Our year 2018 begins on September 21, 2017, just two days before the next great sign in the heavens, the Virgin giving birth to Jupiter (“The King’s Planet”).

The 40 days from 1 Elul to 10 Tishri are known in traditional Judaism as The Season of Teshuvah, “repentance.” Specifically, the people were to repent for worshiping the golden calf while Moses was in the Mount receiving the Ten Commandments. Teshuvah celebrates the 40 days of Israel’s repentance while Moses was in the Mount receiving the second set of tablets (Ten Commandments) in Exodus 34.

The final ten days from Rosh Hoshana (1 Tishri) to Yom Kippur (10 Tishri) are known as the Days of Awe. They are final ten days of Teshuvah, introducing the New Year.

http://www.hebrew4christians.com/Holidays/Fall_Holidays/Elul/elul.html

This year these 40 days extend from August 23 (our prayer campaign) until September 30 (Day of Atonement). It begins with our renewal of the New Covenant, as if we ourselves were going back up the Mount to receive the law written on our hearts. Meanwhile, the church is called to repent during that time, so that the glory will not be veiled once again by the Old Covenant. The veil of the Old Covenant must be removed in order to remove the blindness upon the people, as Paul explains in 2 Corinthians 3:13-18.

Paul says in verse 17 that it is only when this veil is removed that we can find true liberty. So we are not going into this prayer campaign to establish more veils, but to remove them. Hence, it is critical that we understand the terms of the New Covenant. Even as Moses returned from the Mount with the new tables of the law, so also the New Covenant is not lawless. The same law is written, but this time it is on our hearts (Hebrews 8:10), rather than on external tables of stone.

In other words, the distinction is not between law and grace, but between man’s vow and God’s vow. Who is responsible to fulfill the divine plan? Is it done by the will of man or by the will of God? Is it by the will of the flesh or by the will of the Spirit? Is it fulfilled by the power of flesh that has been begotten by blood line, or is it fulfilled by the power of the New Creation Man that has been begotten by the Spirit?

Which Jerusalem will prevail? Will it be the earthly Jerusalem, which the prophets denounced as “The Bloody City,” or will it be the New Jerusalem? Or, to use Paul’s allegory, will Hagar-Jerusalem be the “mother” of the Kingdom, or will it be Sarah-New Jerusalem?

In my view the eclipse over the seven Salems speaks of judgment coming upon the earthly, fleshly Jerusalem in order to allow the heavenly Jerusalem to bring forth the inheritors of the Kingdom.


These are the essential issues of the prayer campaign that must be established before the veil can be removed.

What's your point? That the Chatlottesville riots was a grassroot event?

Don't you think it would be a little too obvious for Mystery Babylon to run the add in Charlottesville?

Do you know that Charlotte is only 4 hrs away from Charlottesville.

Did you know that the add was run just one week prior to the riot in Charlottevilles?

Did you read the articles and listen to the videos?

My point?
Wanting to verify the authenticity of the report.

There are discrepancies and in a world full of false information it is important to verify things --
To "participate in events in the Charlotte, NC area, is not the same as participating in events in Charlotteville, Virginia.

Now it could very well be that it was intentional to cover their tracks, or it could be a linking of coincidence that weren't related.

My comment: Mystery[Secret] Babylon has their visible key men that they are carrying Babylon's agenda. John McCain is one of them.

I have 2 articles about John McCain. The first is how Mainstream Media(MSM) beautified this man. The second is how MSM is silent about John McCain KKK ancestry and him supporting the Neo-Nazi in Ukraine.

The third article is about the US ship called John S. McCain name of the father and grand-father of John McCain. This ship, suffered some major collision where 10 sailors are missing and 5 injured. This event happened today on the day of the great eclipse across America by which is a "watch date". Check out what Stephen prophetic discernment about it.

US Navy warship John S McCain collision

https://gods-kingdom-ministries.net/dail...cain-collision/
Aug 21st, 2017
Quote:
When we are given watch dates, it is helpful to watch and see what actually happens on those dates. In this case, August 21, the date of the solar eclipse across America, is a well-known watch date for the entire country. This event happened on August 20 (American time), but it was 6:24 a.m. on August 21 where the event actually happened.

http://americanmilitarynews.com/2017/08/...medium=facebook

Headline: Navy destroyer USS John McCain collides with large merchant vessel; 10 missing; search and rescue underway

The U.S. Navy 7th Fleet put out the following statement:

Quote:
SOUTH CHINA SEA – The guided-missile destroyer USS John S. McCain (DDG 56) was involved in a collision with the merchant vessel Alnic MC while underway east of the Straits of Malacca and Singapore on Aug. 21.

There are currently 10 Sailors missing and five injured.

The collision was reported at 6:24 a.m. Japan Standard Time, while the ship was transiting to a routine port visit in Singapore.


If this event has prophetic meaning, it can hardly be good news, at least not for the current Senator John McCain, although technically, the warship (nicknamed “Big Bad John”) was named after his father and grandfather who shared the same name.

http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/7-...as-big-bad-john

We might interpret this in a number of ways. First, it appears that it was the US warship that suffered all of the casualties, suggesting that whatever event this may portend will not be good for America.

Second, if it is related to Senator John McCain himself, it may expose his heart as America’s chief warmonger. I can only hope that he will finally be exposed for who he really is. Both he and his father were long-time Mafia men. When investigative reporter, Don Bolles, was about to discover the truth about him and many others in the Arizona government in 1976, his car was blown up as he drove to pick up the evidence. His death stopped the investigation, and all the bad guys breathed a sigh of relief.

Don Bolles was assassinated shortly after we moved to Arizona in 1975. I remember the news reports very well.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Bolles

It appears that the warship’s collision is an ill omen for the bad guys, but has some positive elements for the rest of us.

My comment : Another great article by Pepe Escobar. Basically, the US war trap in N.Korea and Afghanistan is to stop the One Road One Belt effort to integrate these countries in a long-term trade Eurasia partnership that would build and benefit these countries whereas the US Deep State objective is to get them in an never ending war to destroy them while stealing all their natural wealth.

Korea, Afghanistan and the Never Ending War trap

http://www.atimes.com/article/korea-afghanistan-never-ending-war-trap/

By Pepe Escobar

23 Aug 2017

------ Conclusive quote -----------
"And the competition – once again, China – is already there, facing myriad infrastructure and red-tape problems, but concentrated on incorporating Afghanistan, long-term, into the New Silk Roads, aka Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), along with its security cooperation arm, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

It’s no secret the Russia-China strategic partnership wants an Afghan solution hatched by Afghans and supervised by the SCO (of which Afghanistan is an observer and future full member). So from the point of view of neocon/neoliberalcon elements of the War Party in Washington, Afghanistan only makes sense as a forward base to harass/stall/thwart BRI.

What Russia and China want for Afghanistan – yet another node in the process of Eurasia integration – is not much different from what Russia, China and South Korea want for North Korea: increased connectivity as in a future Trans-Korean Railway linked to the Trans-Siberian.

As for Washington and the proverbially bombastic, failed futurists across the Beltway, do they even know what is the end game of “investing” in two never-ending wars with no visible benefits?


Quote:
There are more parallels between an unfinished 1950s war in Northeast Asia and an ongoing 16-year-old war in the crossroads between Central and South Asia than meet the eye. Let’s start with North Korea.

Once again the US/South Korea Hunger Games plow on. It didn’t have to be this way.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov explained how: “Russia together with China developed a plan which proposes ‘double freezing’: Kim Jong-un should freeze nuclear tests and stop launching any types of ballistic missiles, while US and South Korea should freeze large-scale drills which are used as a pretext for the North’s tests.”

Call it sound diplomacy. There’s no conclusive evidence the Russia-China strategic partnership floated this plan directly to the administration of US President Donald Trump. Even if they did, the proposal was shot down. The proverbial “military experts” lobbied hard against it, insisting on a lopsided advantage to Pyongyang. Worse, National Security Adviser H R McMaster consistently lobbies for preventative war – as if this is any sort of serious conflict “resolution”.

Meanwhile, that “plan for an enveloping fire” around Guam remains on Kim Jong-un’s table. It is essential to remember the plan was North Korea’s response to Trump’s “fire and fury” volley. Kim has stated that for diplomacy to work again, “it is necessary for the US to make a proper option first”. As in canceling the Ulchi-Freedom Guardian war games – featuring up to 30,000 US soldiers and more than 50,000 South Korean troops.

South Korean President Moon Jae-in dutifully repeats the Pentagon mantra that these Hunger Games, lasting until August 31, are “defensive”. Computer simulations gaming a – very unlikely – unilateral Pyongyang attack may qualify as defense. But Kim and the Korean Central News Agency interpret the war games in essence for what they are: rehearsal for a “decapitation”, a pre-emptive attack yielding regime change.

No wonder the KCNA insists on a possible “catastrophe”. And Beijing, crucially, concurs. The Global Times reasonably argued that “if South Korea really wants no war on the Korean Peninsula, it should try to stop this military exercise”.

Can’t pack up our troubles

It would be a relief to defuse the drama by evoking that great World War I marching song; “Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag/ And smile, smile, smile.”

But this is extremely serious. A China-North Korea mutual defense treaty has been in effect since 1961. Under this framework, Beijing’s response to Trump’s “fire and fury” was a thing of beauty. If Pyongyang attacks, China is neutral. But if the US launches a McMaster-style pre-emptive attack, China intervenes – militarily – on behalf of Pyongyang.

As a clincher, Beijing even made it clear that its preference is for the current status quo to remain. Checkmate.

Hunger Games apart, the rhetorical war in the Korean Peninsula did decrease a substantial notch after China made its position clear. According to a Beltway intel source, that shows “the US and Chinese militaries, as the US and the Russians in Syria, are coordinating to avoid a war”.

Evidence may have been provided by a very important meeting last week between the chairmen of the US and Chinese Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Joseph Dunford and General Fang Fenghui. They signed a deal that the Pentagon spun as able to “reduce the risk of miscalculation” in Northeast Asia.

Among the prodigious fireworks inherent to his departure as White House chief strategist, Steve Bannon nailed it: “There’s no military solution, forget it. Until somebody solves the part of the equation that shows me that 10 million people in Seoul don’t die in the first 30 minutes from conventional weapons, I don’t know what you’re talking about, there’s no military solution here, they got us.”

And extra evidence in the “they got us” department is that B-1B heavy bomber “decapitation” practice runs – out of Andersen Air Force Base in Guam – have been quietly “suspended”. This crucial, largely unreported fact in the air supersedes rhetoric from Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Pentagon head James “Mad Dog” Mattis, who previous to Bannon’s exit were stressing “strong military consequences if North Korea chooses wrongly”.

Once again, it’s all about BRI

Now let’s move to Afghanistan. “Mad Dog” Mattis once famously said it was fun to shoot Taliban fighters. “Known unknowns” Don Rumsfeld was more realistic; he moved out of Afghanistan (toward Iraq) because there were not enough good targets to bomb.

Anyone who spent time working/reporting on the Afghan Hindu Kush and the southwestern deserts knows why the proverbial “there’s no military solution” applies. There are myriad reasons, starting with the profound, radicalized Afghan ethnic divide (roughly, 40% are mostly rural, tribal Pashtun, many recruited by the Taliban; almost 30% are Tajik, a great deal of them urban, literate and in government; more than 20% are Hazara Shiites; and 10% are Uzbek).

The bulk of Washington’s “aid” to Kabul throughout these past 16 years has been on the bombing, not the economy, front. Government corruption is cataclysmic. Warlords rule. The Taliban thrive because they offer local protection. Much to Pashtun ire, most of the army is Tajik. Tajik politicians are mostly close to India while most Pashtun favor Pakistan (after all, they have cousins on the other side of the Durand line; enter the dream of a future, reunited Pashtunistan).

On the GWOT (Global War on Terror) front, al-Qaeda would not even exist if the late Dr Zbig “Grand Chessboard” Brzezinski had not come up with the idea of a sprawling, well-weaponized private army of demented jihadis-cum-tribal Afghans fighting the communist government in Kabul during the 1980s. Add to this the myth that the Pentagon needs to be on the ground in Afghanistan to prevent jihadis from attacking America. Al-Qaeda is extinct in Afghanistan. And Daesh does not need territory to concoct/project its DIY jihad.

When the myth of the US in Afghanistan as a categorical imperative is exposed, that may unveil what this is all about: business.

And we’re not even talking about who really profits from large-scale opium/heroin trade.

Two months ago the Afghan ambassador to Washington, Hamdullah Mohib, was breathlessly spinning how “President Trump is keenly interested in Afghanistan’s economic potential”, as in “our estimated $1 trillion in copper, iron ore, rare-earth elements, aluminum, gold, silver, zinc, mercury and lithium”. This led to the proverbial unnamed “US officials” telling Reuters last month that what Trump wants is for the US to demand some of that mineral wealth in exchange for “assisting” Kabul.

A US Geological Survey study a decade ago did identify potential Afghan mineral wealth – gold, silver, platinum, iron ore, uranium, zinc, tantalum, bauxite, coal, natural gas and copper – worth as much as US$1 trillion, with much spin dedicated to Afghanistan as “the Saudi Arabia of lithium”.

And the competition – once again, China – is already there, facing myriad infrastructure and red-tape problems, but concentrated on incorporating Afghanistan, long-term, into the New Silk Roads, aka Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), along with its security cooperation arm, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

It’s no secret the Russia-China strategic partnership wants an Afghan solution hatched by Afghans and supervised by the SCO (of which Afghanistan is an observer and future full member). So from the point of view of neocon/neoliberalcon elements of the War Party in Washington, Afghanistan only makes sense as a forward base to harass/stall/thwart BRI.

What Russia and China want for Afghanistan – yet another node in the process of Eurasia integration – is not much different from what Russia, China and South Korea want for North Korea: increased connectivity as in a future Trans-Korean Railway linked to the Trans-Siberian.

As for Washington and the proverbially bombastic, failed futurists across the Beltway, do they even know what is the end game of “investing” in two never-ending wars with no visible benefits?

My comment : I know it get's quite confusing to know what side President Trump is working with. Mainstream Media does also confuses the issue quite a bit. But do note that there's a different between Trump's goals and work versus the Deep States (aka Mystery Babylon) that is still controlling the US government. This article below is another example that we see that President Trump is not part of the Deep State and still working to reverse bad US policies and to liberate the US people.

Comment on President Trump;s Speech : Reversal of Bush "Exporting Democracy" Foreign Policies
https://gods-kingdom-ministries.net/daily-weblogs/2017/08-2017/comments-on-president-trumps-speech/

Quote:
President Trump made a speech yesterday to honor the ten who were lost in the collision of the US warship John S McCain.

https://www.facebook.com/DonaldTrump/videos/10159704959520725/

In this speech, he announced a major change in government policy, reversing President Bush’s policy of “exporting Democracy,” as it was called. In reality, it is a reversal of the very destructive American policy of destabilizing Mideast countries for the purpose of bringing them more firmly under the control of the Babylonian rulers in the West.

We have known for many years that evil elements in the top echelons of the US military have cooperated with Babylonian rulers in subjecting the American people—and much of the rest of the world—to their policies of enslavement and control. Since 2001, this policy, according to General Wesley Clark, has been to use the US military to destabilize Mideast countries, including Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, Libya, and Syria in order to solidify Babylonian control over that part of the world. Here is a 2-minute video clip where he speaks of this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8YtF76s-yM

President Bush sold this policy to the American public after the planned demolition of the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001.

President Trump is ending that strategy. In his speech, he said this:

But we will no longer use American military might to construct democracies in faraway lands, or try to rebuild other countries in our own image. Those days are now over. Instead, we will work with allies and partners to protect our shared interests. We are not asking others to change their way of life, but to pursue common goals that allow our children to live better and safer lives. This principled realism will guide our decisions moving forward.

We already had hints of this new strategy last April, when Press Secretary Sean Spicer made this point at a press conference in regard to Syria.

https://gods-kingdom-ministries.net/dail...ies-in-5-years/

Trump knows, however, that it is far easier to start a war than to end it. He knows that America cannot simply stop fighting and send the troops home. He could only do so if he were able to admit the awful truth about our own government. But he cannot do so, because that would undermine patriotism itself and would spread great disillusionment and unrest. Worse yet, it would show that all who lost their lives in fighting those wars did so for an evil cause. No one wants to be told that soldiers died so that Babylonian rulers might increase their power to enslave other nations. These wars, after all, were supposed to be wars of liberation. So they said.

Our slave masters knew that selling these wars of enslavement to the American people would first require a great disaster that would shock them into being willing to go to war once again. That was accomplished on September 11, 2001. This was much like what happened at Pearl Harbor in 1941, where the US government used sanctions to force Japan to attack us. President Roosevelt called it an “unprovoked attack.” It was anything but that.

That war had been planned as early as 1921 when Japanese Emperor Hirohito visited Europe. The main purpose for this planned war was to find and steal the gold of the Chinese dynastic families that was hidden throughout Southeast Asia. It was decided that Japan would be used as the tool of the Babylonian bankers to steal that wealth. Regardless of who might win that war, the bankers would still own the wealth, because Japan has been an American colony since the 1860’s.

I first learned this by talking to a former Army intelligence officer in the late 1970’s, who told me that he had actually seen the document where he was stationed. I have since found much confirmation of this. Of course, Japan is not really an “American” colony at all. It is a colony owned by those who also rule America as their own personal colony. We were all reduced to the status of colonists a long time ago. True freedom is only a façade. We are allowed freedom as long as we continue to recognize them as our slave masters.

The Trilateral Commission, one of the chief Babylonian political power structures since World War 2, refers to a coordinated policy of Britain, USA, and Japan. These are the three (as in “Trilateral”).

All of this slavery has been hidden, though it is now being exposed in recent years. The Bible calls it “Mystery Babylon” for a reason. But in the end, the mystery (secretive nature of Babylon) is being exposed by the light. We would expect that to happen just before Babylon falls. Once exposed, it loses its mesmerizing power over the hearts and minds of the people.

The timing of President Trump’s speech on August 21, 2017 connects it prophetically with our own divine court work that was accomplished on the same day. I reported this yesterday. It suggests that Trump’s decision to change US foreign policy and to end the destabilization project instituted by President Bush might be one of the causes of the soon-coming chaos.

Babylonian rulers have already been trying to unseat Trump and to overthrow him. He is not one of them, so they have mobilized their lackeys in both political parties to unite against Trump. This is why the Democratic Party is being supported by Lindsay Graham and John McCain. This is also why the Democratic Party has suddenly joined forces with the Republican warmongers to put sanctions on Russia and to try to push us into more needless wars.

These new alliances expose the fact that both political parties work for the same bosses, who follow the old principle known as the Hegelian Dialectic: Thesis, Antithesis, and Synthesis. They present opposing ideological views (thesis and antithesis) and then pretend to compromise through “reason” to reach a predetermined solution (“synthesis”).

In other words, if we are presently sitting at POINT A, but the hidden masters want us to move to the left, they present an extreme cause to the far left (POINT C), and then the compromise shifts us to the midpoint (POINT B). That way they move us slowly but steadily toward their goal of increased power, control, war, murder, theft, and other forms of lawlessness.

Needless to say, the Kingdom of God does not engage in such stuff, although the Vatican has become very good at it over the centuries. But they are not the Kingdom of God. The Vatican is the “little horn” extension of the Roman beast system. That is why they have engaged in carnal political games for many centuries—as reported by the church historians, who were mostly bishops, archbishops, and cardinals in the Vatican itself.

But all of this is now coming to an end, and 2017 is a crucial turning point in prophetic history. Unfortunately, we cannot avoid the birthpangs of the Age to come. But we can be informed, so that we are not taken by surprise. We can be participants—midwives, as it were to the Kingdom and to the overcomers as they are brought to full birth in the feast of Tabernacles.

We are called to be watchful and to be prepared. Life itself is a preparation for the Kingdom. I believe that momentous times are ahead. There will be much chaos, but there will also be a tremendous move of the Spirit of God throughout the earth. As the world system fails and falls, so also will the Kingdom of God rise up to fill the void.

We are not merely called to watch and observe, but to participate, not in a carnal way, but in spiritual warfare, divine court appeals, casting out demons, healing the sick, raising the dead, and teaching the word. Not everyone is called to do all of the above, but whatever you are called to do, that you should do. Do all things in love and faith, never in fear. Remember always that the battle is not yours, but God’s. The outcome does not hinge upon you or me, but upon the power of the blood of Jesus Christ, and the power of His resurrected life.

My comment : We, as Christians, are to walk & follow the Spirit. This prophetic discernment about Hurricane Harvey coming unto Corpus Christi, Tx goes back over 35 years by the work of the Holy Spirit and is climaxing now. The conclusion....the beginning of the outpouring(flood) of the Holy Spirit that will come down on the body of Christ. That's very encouraging!

Prophetic discernment: Hurricane Harvey

https://gods-kingdom-ministries.net/daily-weblogs/2017/08-2017/hurricane-harvey/

Aug 25, 2017
by Stephen Jones
Quote:
Hurricane Harvey is moving toward Corpus Christi, TX and will probably hit the city this evening. Since Corpus Christi means “Body of Christ,” it is a significant sign of things soon to come. Harvey means “blazing iron,” which is to be interpreted as “battle ready” or “battle worthy.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvey_(name)

Many signs can be interpreted in more than one way, and often the signs do indeed have layers of meaning. In this case, when I prayed about it, the Father said that this hurricane was to be seen as a good sign, a sign of the flood of the Holy Spirit that was about to come upon the Body of Christ.

Of course, the Holy Spirit usually disrupts our normal living patterns. So also there is no doubt that Harvey will do the same, not only to the city of Corpus Christi, but also to the Body of Christ in general. Yet those who are in tune with the Holy Spirit and who stay close to Jesus and His umbrella will not be affected adversely. Whatever fleshly things are swept away will be for their good, because for them, “all things work together for good” (Romans 8:28).

Background History

More than 35 years ago, there were prophecies about a great hurricane that was to hit Corpus Christi. This was often an intercessory issue during my days with the Net of Prayer in the 1980’s. I wrote about this in chapters 18 and 19 of my book, The Wars of the Lord. I went to Corpus Christi in June 1989 to deal with a hurricane, leaving home before there was any trace of a hurricane. Yet by the time I arrived, a hurricane had formed in the Gulf. On the shore at Corpus Christi, I rebuked it, and suddenly wind sheer cut off its head (as the weatherman said), and it died within 24 hours without hitting Corpus Christi.

My wife and I went again to Corpus Christi in 1997 to set boundary markers along the Gulf coast from Padre Island (August 21, 1997) all the way to Key West, Florida (August 26, 1997). This boundary lasted just one year, during which time no hurricane was allowed to hit the coast. But after the expiration dates (in 1998), many hurricanes began to hit the coast.

It began with tropical storm Charley which struck Corpus Christi (August 22, 1998). Then Hurricane Bonnie struck Cape Fear, NC (August 26, 1998). Then Hurricane Earl hit Panama City, FL (September 3, 1998).

Dragon Wars

This particular prophetic work was designed to protect the Body of Christ from the Red Dragon, which (at that time) was how these hurricanes were manifesting. We have had many wars against the Red Dragon over the years, most of them defensive in nature, because the time had not yet come to overthrow him. However, in 1996-1999 we had a three-year series of “Dragon Wars,” which I recorded in greater detail in chapters 18-21 of The Wars of the Lord.

These wars came out of the signs in the heavens, when Virgo appeared to give birth to the moon, beginning in September 1996. This was, of course, about the time when we were led to declare the 120th Jubilee from Adam (September 23, 1996). This sign in the heavens repeated four times, culminating in September of 1999, as we held the festival at Port Austin, Michigan to celebrate the 2000th birthday of Jesus, who was born in September of 2 B.C.

Now, in 2017, we are seeing another sign in the heavens coming on the 21st anniversary of our 120th Jubilee declaration. On September 23, 2017 Virgo (the Virgin) will give birth to Jupiter (the King’s Planet).

In 1996-1999 it was the moon that was brought forth. The moon signifies the church. In 2017 it is Jupiter that is being brought to birth. Jupiter signifies the coming King, Jesus Christ. The Hebrew name for Jupiter is Zedek, “righteousness,” and Jerusalem was called the City of Zedek. In fact, the nations throughout history have identified their own capital cities with Jupiter. Jerusalem was no exception.

Hence, Jupiter’s birth on September 23, 2017 ought to be seen in the general flow of revelation that began as early as September 1996. The fact that Jupiter will be born precisely 21 years after we declared the 120th Jubilee is no coincidence. Since 21 is the number of “distress” in Scripture, we might even see this as a long-term time of birth pangs from one age to another.

So from 1996-2017 brings us to the present time and the end of the beast systems, as I have explained often in earlier writings.

Overthrowing the Red Dragon

Earlier this week, on August 21, 2017, we prayed to cast down the Red Dragon and the other three archprinces of the beast nations.

https://gods-kingdom-ministries.net/dail...nd-its-results/

Is it just coincidental, then, that Harvey became a hurricane three days later on August 24, and that today it threatens Corpus Christi?

http://www.nola.com/hurricane/index.ssf/2017/08/hurricane_harvey_gulf_category.html

Hurricanes are always serious matters from an earthly point of view. But Harvey is different from the past hurricanes that threatened Corpus Christ, because we are now in a new day. Hence, the hurricane must be seen in a new light, according to the progressive flow of revelation that has been given to us.

On one hand, the “blazing iron” could be seen as a threat to the Body of Christ coming from the iron kingdom (Rome). But on the other hand, the Manchild being born comes with a “rod of iron” (Revelation 12:5). This is the sign that is now before us. The events of August 21, 2017, with the solar eclipse and the divine court case against the four beasts, now point toward the birth of the Manchild on September 23. He comes with a rod of iron.

Part of the divine court proceedings on August 21 involved claiming the four metals for God’s treasury (gold, silver, bronze, and iron). This was according to the instructions given to Joshua when fighting the battle of Jericho (Joshua 6:19). The battle of Jericho was the primary Old Testament sign of the fall of Babylon in the book of Revelation. Even as Joshua took the Kingdom long ago, so also the greater Joshua (Yeshua) is taking the Kingdom again on a greater scale. But in both cases, all four metals (kingdoms) must go into His treasury. Revelation 11:15 says, “The kingdom of this world has become the kingdom of our Lord, and of His Christ.”

In other words, when Christ takes over, He destroys the system of bondage in order to lay claim to the assets (people) of the beast nations. It is not about destruction, but about the restoration of all things. Those who disagree are like Achan, whose fate was not so positive. I wrote about the Achan Doctrine in chapter 10 of my book, Creation’s Jubilee.

So I believe we should look at Hurricane Harvey as a belated attempt of the iron kingdom of Babylon to destroy the Body of Christ, but in reality, God has ruled against the beast nations. God has taken the blazing iron sword of Rome/Babylon and has turned it into a rod of iron by which the Manchild will rule the nations. Whereas the beast nations are trying to destroy the Body of Christ with a blazing iron sword, God has turned their weapon against them, and is blessing the Body of Christ with an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

For this reason, what is coming to the earth is not a repeat of Noah’s flood, which destroyed the earth, but the second flood—the flood of the Holy Spirit, which is coming to disrupt the existing order. When this flood is complete, “the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea” (Habakkuk 2:14).
