Monday night I attended the “Stand Up America” rally in Houston hosted by the North Houston Tea Party Patriots. And while I feel the event was a resounding success, I couldn’t help but get a feeling of despair among 15,000 patriotic Americans who truly do want to see our country restored to the Constitutional Republic under which it was formed. These are all good, hard-working, salt-of-the-earth people who simply want government out of their lives as every American should. And I couldn’t agree more.
 
No, it’s not that feeling of hope and determination to see our country freed from the grips of corruption and the abject dismissal of the public will by our “elected” leaders which caused me such despair. It was the fact that while so many of these great Americans are so right on so many issues, they have for the most part, fallen hook, line and sinker for the Big Lie. These are the red-blooded Americans who have drunk the “Islamo-fascist” Kool-Aid served up by the main stream media, especially Fox News, and created by the Pentagon, NGOs, “think-tanks” and intelligence agencies of the world. This delusion is akin to the left-wing liberals and “progressives” who drank and still consume the “Change we can believe in” lie which swept Obama into office last year.
 
We were told more that 8 years ago that 9/11 changed everything. We have largely bought that lie, collectively, as a nation and because of this, let the powers that be run roughshod over our Constitution, our rule of law and our way of life all in the name of “security” and defending our homeland from the “evil doers” of the world. From this lie, has risen in this country a fervent patriotism and attitude that America can do no wrong in the world. We’re the “good guys” after all.

So while all these Tea Partiers, Red-Staters and conservative Republicans are right on so many issues such as ending the Federal Reserve system, abolishing the income tax, enforcing states rights, the global warming hoax, blocking Cap & Trade and the abysmal government “health-care” reform, and massively reducing the size and scope of our federal bureaucracy, they are dead wrong on their unflinching and unwitting support of “our troops.” They still believe that “you’re either with us, or you’re with the terrorists.” What a slick sales (con) job that line was…
 
Now don’t get me wrong here. As an honorably discharged Army veteran who served four years for his country, I know many people will get offended by that last statement, so let me explain further.

If you’ve ever read George Orwell’s, 1984, you know that, “Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.” This seems eerily similar to the lie that we’ve been sold about the terrorist threat to our country. The lie that we need a “100-year war” because this enemy doesn’t abide by the “traditional” rules of war (whatever THAT means), and that we need to take the battle to them so we don’t end up with a “mushroom cloud” over here, is just that: a LIE. Perhaps a quick review of history will drive home this point:

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
 
 – Joseph Goebbels, Nazi Propaganda Minister　

Why of course the people don’t want war. Why should some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally the common people don’t want war neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.
 
-Hermann Goering, President of the Nazi Reichstag
It is precisely this “Islamo-fascist/War on Terror” lie which is propagated by not only right-wing media personalities such as Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and Bill O’Reilly among many others, but an increasing amount of left-wing media talking-heads like Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow as well now that “their guy” is in power. The war is suddenly OK. “Obama is just doing his best to clean up Bush’ mess. There’s only so much he can do, you know.” Yeah, right.
 
Well, my fellow patriotic Americans, it’s not OK.
 
It’s not OK that we went into Iraq, killled over 1.3 million innocent civilians, polluted their soil and water with depleted uranium munitions, displaced millions of other Iraqis, and have turned their country into a third-world cesspool so that we could control their oil. It’s not OK that we went into Afghanistan so that we could re-invigorate the opium trade (which had been all but decimated by the Taliban), keep the black market money flowing to fund the CIA, ISI, MI6, Mossad, etc., and ensure record crops of poppy fields while “our troops” stand guard. Pat Tillman was about to come home and expose it all until he was murdered by his own government.
 
So, my fellow Americans, please understand that when you blindly say you “support the troops” because that’s what good Americans do, you are only supporting the individual and NOT their command or their mission. For it has been proven that their mission is a lie, a fraud, unconstitutional and illegal. Support the individual and pray for their safety – not only from our “supposed” enemies who are merely defending their own homeland, sovereignty, property and natural resources, but from those in our own government who use them merely as instruments in their sick and twisted game of global empire and world domination. As Henry Kissinger, one of the long-time establishment’s “elite” minions and another questionable winner of the Nobel “Peace” Prize, so bluntly put it, “Military men are just dumb stupid animals to be used as pawns in foreign policy.” This is the same attitude of your leaders in DC.
 
Yes, it is sad that our troops have been reduced to the heavy hand enforcers of western “democracy” under a corrupt and tyrannical American government. Our troops are now nothing more than the strong arm of the global mafia: the cabal of central banks and greedy corporations of the world working in concert to rob the wealth of nations and impoverish and enslave the good people of the world. These criminals own the entire military industrial complex, to include the “troops” and these are the same people pushing hard for their “global government” which will be pushed further down the path to realization in Copenhagen, Denmark this December under the guise of once again, “saving humanity from itself.”
 
These so-called “elites” are the true destroyers of humanity and all that is good in the world and they have the nerve to use false patriotism and wrap themselves in the American flag as they send our sons and daughters, brothers and sisters and fathers and mothers off to fight and die in unjust wars in foreign lands. Not to protect and defend our Constitution, our ideals, our morals and our way of life, but to ensure the corporate takeover of the world; to enable the raping and pillaging of sovereign lands not for the gain of world peace or “democracy”, but of PROFIT and greater and greater power; and to lead humanity towards the neo-feudal system which has been their dream and ultimate end game for decades, if not centuries.
 
If nothing else in my life, I have learned one very important lesson: if you want to get to the truth about anything, you need to only figure out two things:
 
1. Who is benefitting from this?

and

2. Follow the money.
 
By simply taking the time and doing your own research, your due diligence and your duty not only as an American citizen, but as a member of all humanity, you will always come to the truth. As it was written in Matthew 7:7, “Ask, and it shall be given to you, seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you.”
 
So I put this challenge out to ALL my fellow patriots, freedom-fighters, conservatives, libertarians and liberals alike: Seek the TRUTH and ye shall find.
 
Reject the corporate controlled mainstream media, especially the NeoCon conservative talk show hosts around the countryAlways remember this. You could eat the most beautiful, juicy and delicious apple in the world, but if there is just one drop of cyanide in that apple, it will most likely kill you. That’s the essential purpose of the corporate-controlled media. They are not there to inform or educate, they are there to indoctrinate. They are there to perpetuate the false left/right paradigm so as to divide and conquer a nation. They are there to lie, spin, distort and stretch reality to fit a pre-determined agenda. They are controlled ultimately by the same people, corporations, and monied interests who control the Federal Reserve banking system which is destroying our country by design. It’s all about control and manipulation of our minds, our thoughts, our beliefs, our attitudes, and thus, our actions.
 
Unfortunately, the vast majority of the conservative minds in this country have fallen victim to the manipulation of the Big Lie, which is the “War on Terror.” It’s no more than the modern incarnation of the “War on Poverty”, the “War on Cancer”, or the “War on Drugs.” All of which, I might add, have been colossal failures while lining the pockets and increasing the power of the authoritarian establishment which has benefitted from them all.
 
Ultimately, all the belief in the Big Lie will do is cripple the patriot movement as the outrage against the Democrats and the damage they’ve done to our nation will increase support for the Republicans. And the fake, NeoCon “conservatives” will once again be swept into power. All the while, the hundred-year war rages on as one puppet of the establishment replaces another. Quit buying into the Big Lie. You’re smarter than that.
 
And ask yourself the next time you blindly cheer in support of our troops, “who is benefitting from this?” Is it the country and citizens of Iraq or Afghanistan? Is it the believers of the essentially peaceful Islamic religion? Is it our troops coming home maimed, traumatized, poisoned and in body bags? Or is it Halliburton, KBR, BP Amoco, Exxon Mobil, CACI, Dyncorp, Blackwater, L3 Communications, Raytheon, Titan , GE, McDonnell Douglas and so on and so on….? Is it our federal government who has since 2001, gutted our Constitution in a power grab never before seen in American history? Who has benefitted? Follow the money. Seek the TRUTH. And if you really do support the troops, fight, with everything you have to end these illegal wars of aggression and empire-building so that we can bring them home to do what they’re sworn to do: protect our borders from foreign invasion, and protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America!
 

Sources of TRUTH (By Topic):
 
Troops, War and the Global Establishment who benefit from their exploitation:
 
Documentaries

So you say you support the troops? These two must -see documentaries will expose you to the devastating truth about what you’re really supporting:

Beyond Treason – by William Lewis (2005) Exposes the probable causes of Gulf War Syndrome which has adversely affected over 250,000 troops who served in the first Gulf War. Also reveals secret tests done on our military “guinea pigs” and the cover-ups which followed. Allows you to see what your government REALLY thinks about the “troops.”

Iraq For Sale: The War Profiteers – by Robert Greenwald (2006) Exposes the true purpose of war and how American taxpayers are being fleeced to the tune of Billions while back-room deals with political cronies line the pockets of military industrial complex and the elected and un-elected officials allow them to do so. Shows how money and greed dominate the business of war while our troops suffer the consequences over and over. Mind-blowing information you’ll never hear on the nightly news.

For further research on the topic of war and how our troops are used as mere pawns by the establishment “elite”, I highly recommend War Made Easy: How President and Pundits Keep Spinning Us To Death and Terrorstorm: A History of Government Sponsored Terrorism which is the definitive historical documentary of how all wars are and have been created through staged events and manipulation of public fear by the ruling class of the time. Highly educational!
