HAPPY HALLOWEEN FREAK SHOW - BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE RUSSIANS

Thermobaric bombs are not good.  In the vacuum created when they explode in a confined space like a tunnel, basement or trench, you will find your lungs hanging out of your mouth due to a low pressure created around the person as the oxygen is consumed and the pressurized lungs normalize to ambient (out your mouth).  That is usually deadly - and I thought they were outlawed via UN convention on warfare......  Maybe not - the Russians usually play for real, not the sissified crap we get from Barack....:

Coming to America.....

THE SLAVES SHALL RISE UP AGAINST THEIR MASTERS

This is quite interesting.  I have felt it would go this way for some time.  It was just a matter of when.  I hope they are not part of the "lion that teareth to pieces" as they are part of the Book of Mormon peoples who went with Hagoth.

INAUGURAL POST ON THE GOODS ZONE

Okay - I found something that I wanted to get out there:

http://woodyoubelieveitnow.blogspot.com/2015/10/the-first-1260-days-of-anti-christ.html

THE ORDER OF WAR

Remember the order of war:
Trade Wars
Currency Wars
World Wars

WE ARE OFFICIALLY GOING IN TO SYRIA

It is no longer a proxy war:

US Invasion of Syria Begins

31.10.2015 Author: Tony Cartalucci

As previously warned about in June of 2015, the United States has announced that it will officially begin ground operations in Syria through the use of special forces. The Washington Post in its article, “Obama seeks to intensify operations in Syria with Special Ops troops,”would report that:

President Obama is sending a small number of Special Operations troops to northern Syria, marking the first full-time deployment of U.S. forces to the chaotic country.

The mission marks a major shift for Obama, whose determination to defeat the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria has been balanced by an abiding worry that U.S. troops not be pulled too deeply into the in­trac­table Syrian conflict.

The latest deployment will involve fewer than 50 Special Operations advisers, who will work with resistance forces battling the Islamic State in northern Syria but will not engage in direct combat, Obama administration officials said.

Admission of Special Forces in Syria is Just the Beginning

While the US claims this move is to “defeat the Islamic State (ISIS),” it is instead clearly a move to establish long-sought “buffer zones” or “safe zones” in Syria where the Syrian government can no longer operate. US airpower will also undoubtedly be used to cover these special forces, creating a defacto no-fly-zone wherever they operate.

The map accompanying the Washington Post article clearly shows ISIS territory straddling the last remaining supply corridor being used to supply the terror group as well as others including Al Qaeda’s al Nusra Front from NATO-member Turkey’s territory. US special forces will likely begin operating in these areas, and zones carved out as US operations expand.

The eventual outcome, if these operations are successful, will be the division and destruction of Syria as a nation-state. This is more than mere speculation – this is a conclusion drawn by signed and dated policy papers produced by the Brookings Institution, who has called for such zones since as early as 2012, but under different contrived pretexts.

In the March 2012 Brookings Institution”Middle East Memo #21″ “Assessing Options for Regime Change” it is stated specifically (emphasis added):

An alternative is for diplomatic efforts to focus first on how to end the violence and how to gain humanitarian access, as is being done under Annan’s leadership. This may lead to the creation of safe-havens and humanitarian corridors, which would have to be backed by limited military power. This would, of course, fall short of U.S. goals for Syria and could preserve Asad in power. From that starting point, however, it is possible that a broad coalition with the appropriate international mandate could add further coercive action to its efforts.

More recently, in a June 2015 Brookings document literally titled, “Deconstructing Syria: A new strategy for America’s most hopeless war,” it is stated that (emphasis added):

The idea would be to help moderate elements establish reliable safe zones within Syria once they were able. American, as well as Saudi and Turkish and British and Jordanian and other Arab forces would act in support, not only from the air but eventually on the ground via the presence of special forces as well. The approach would benefit from Syria’s open desert terrain which could allow creation of buffer zones that could be monitored for possible signs of enemy attack through a combination of technologies, patrols, and other methods that outside special forces could help Syrian local fighters set up.

RUSSIAN DOOMSDAY PLANE IS NOW IN THE AIR OVER THE ME

This can never be good.....  I wonder if it is Menet show-time:

http://sputniknews.com/infographics/20150311/1017070125.html

This keeps the command and control mobile in case the enemy hits fixed Russian command and control centers on the ground.  Last resort for the Russians is the deadhand system.

This dead hand system shows you just how nuts the average Russian is.  The level of paranoia they have is probably the highest of any nation since Cambodia and Pol Pot....

KNOWING WHEN IT IS TIME TO FLEE

I received this from a regular submitter who is an elect lady.  The elect hear God's commands - and then follow them:

2 Nephi 5:5-6

And it came to pass that the Lord did warn me, that I, Nephi, should depart from them and flee into the wilderness, and all those who would go with me.

Wherefore, it came to pass that I, Nephi, did take my family, and also Zoram and his family, and Sam, mine elder brother and his family, and Jacob and Joseph, my younger brethren, and also my sisters, and all those who would go with me. And all those who would go with me were those who believed in the warnings and the revelations of God; wherefore, they did hearken unto my words.

Elder Robert D. Hales – October 2015 General Confernce:

“One of the purposes of the scriptures is to show us how righteous people respond to temptation and evil. In short, they avoid it! Joseph ran from Potiphar’s wife.3 Lehi took his family and left Jerusalem.4 Mary and Joseph fled into Egypt to escape Herod’s wicked plot.5 In every instance, Heavenly Father warned these believers. Similarly, He will help us know whether to fight, flee, or go with the flow of our unfolding circumstances. He will speak to us through prayer, and when we pray, we will have the Holy Ghost, who will guide us. We have the scriptures, the teachings of living prophets, patriarchal blessings, the counsel of inspired parents, priesthood and auxiliary leaders, and, above all, the still, small voice of the Spirit.”

WE ARE LED BY FALLIBLE MEN

This is NOT the Catholic church.  We are led by mere mortals - but we sustain them as Prophets, Seers and Revelators:


Brigham Young
"What a pity it would be if we were led by one man to utter destruction! Are you afraid of this? I am more afraid that this people have so much confidence in their leaders that they will not inquire for themselves of God whether they are led by Him. I am fearful they settle down in a state of blind self-security, trusting their eternal destiny in the hands of their leaders with a reckless confidence that in itself would thwart the purposes of God in their salvation, and weaken that influence they could give to their leaders, did they know for themselves, by the revelations of Jesus, that they are led in the right way. Let every man and woman know, by the whispering of the Spirit of God to themselves, whether their leaders are walking in the path the Lord dictates, or not. This has been my exhortation continually.“ (Journal of Discourses 9:151)

Brigham Young
"We do not want the people to rely on human testimony, although that cannot be confuted and destroyed; still, there is a more sure word of prophecy that all may gain if they will seek it earnestly before the Lord.” (JD 12:96)

Joseph F. Smith
"I would feel sorry indeed, if I had a friend or an associate in this life who would turn away from the plan of life and salvation because I might stumble or make a failure of my life. I want no man to lean upon me nor to follow me, only so far as I am a consistent follower in the footsteps of the Master.” (Gospel Doctrine, Pg.4, underline added. See also the Juvenile Instructor, 1915, Vol. 50, pp. 738, 739.)

Ezra Taft Benson
"Six of the original Twelve Apostles selected by Joseph Smith were excommunicated. The Three Witnesses to the Book of Mormon left the Church. Three of Joseph Smith’s counselors fell one even helped plot his death. A natural question that might arise would be that if the Lord knew in advance that these men would fall, as he undoubtedly did, why did he have His prophet call them to such high office? The answer is: to fill the Lord’s purposes. For even the Master followed the will of the Father by selecting Judas.

President George
"Perhaps it is his own design that faults and weaknesses should appear in high places in order that his saints may learn to trust in him and not in any man or men.” (Millennial Star 53:658, 1891) (An Enemy Hath Done This, Pg. 290. See also Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, Pg.89)

George Q. Cannon
"Do not, brethren, put your trust in man though he be a Bishop, an apostle or a president; if you do, they will fail you at some time or place; they will do wrong or seem to, and your support will be gone; but if we lean on God, He will NEVER fail us. When men and women depend upon GOD ALONE and trust in HIM ALONE, their faith will not be shaken if the highest in the Church should step aside.” (DW 43:322 [Mar 7, 1891]).

SELLING ALL YOU HAVE

I have gotten some snide and rude comments on a serious statement I made in a previous post.  Usually, I do not feed the trolls like Patt, Marsha or Russ - they have serious issues they need to work through.  They do not need further attention other than a prayer.  I guess we have to pray for the trolls, too - right??

When we begin to actually read the scriptures, we are told of a situation we will be in here shortly.  One where no one owns anything.  We simply are stewards over what has been assigned to us.   Where we have been given children and we have done a poor job - or chosen not to have them, we have no increase.  We have found our end.  Where we have chosen to be wise stewards, increase, above and beyond what we need for ourselves, is given to those whose predicament is worse than our own.  All are elevated - indeed there are no poor among them and the society rises together, or falls together.

This does not imply sameness.  This is NOT communism.  What DOES happen, is that those who can handle much, are given much.  Those whose inclinations are to much less, will have much less.  Sufficient for their needs.  No more; no less.  Very simple.

If they leave the system, they pull their shares out of it and come out with no less had they not entered into it.  Most will not leave it, precisely because this consecrated form of living is the next step in their journey towards celestial laws.  Once they have learned the lessons, they can move up and their rewards will be increased proportionately.  World without end - all that Father has.  Those that pull back from a consecrated life, once they have entered it - they are damned in their progression.  Those who will not even abide the law of tithing - well, that is a progressive thing (line upon line, precept on precept, here a little, there a little until they come to a fullness), so they are simply damned in their progress (or forward movement).

As far as the City of Enoch and the New Jerusalem go, only those who would like to live a Consecrated Life will be allowed to enter into it.  Only those who are WILLING to live that kind of a life, would be allowed to enter into it.  It is in the willingness that we may say that we have sold all that we have.  Selling it now - in an entitled time where people expect something for nothing - is utter foolishness.  Being good stewards until the need becomes a reality is another thing.

May we begin to qualify ourselves for a Zion life, now!  It will not happen over night.  We have to want it with all our hearts.

YOU ARE SEEING YOUR FUTURE - AS SPENCER AND OTHERS DESCRIBED IT

I can conceive of this in my mind's eye - therefore, it will be our reality.  Prophets have spoken it.

We are on the cusp here.  Our scenario will actually be women and children due to biologics that will largely target only males - as part of our softening as we are prepared for invasion.  The icing is being put on the cake in the form of gun control and confiscation they are trying to pass.

There, it is mostly men.  For some reason, we are not seeing the women and children - but this is an invasion force.  That has also been predicted.  Europe will fall this year and come under Russian control.  It is all scripted - part of the deal.

This fellow made the vid on Emma Smith's last dream.  It was powerful - that video affected me deeply in my feelings for Emma.  I used to hold some level of disdain for her.  Now I do not.

The videographer has struggled with depression.  If you have someone whom you love that does, this is a good video to watch:

 
This video is timely.

EMMA'S LAST DREAM - WE SHALL HAVE OUR LOVED ONES ONCE AGAIN

I know there are many who have lost much - including little children through death, disease, miscarriage and much else.  I would be intensely curious to know what Emma's blood type was - there was a lot of loss, and I am pretty sure we do not know about any possible miscarriages by her.  Difficult things to go through.

If you have experienced this, you will enjoy this vid on an old post by a FB pal with an interesting last name:

HOW THE ONE-WORLD RELIGION WILL BE BROUGHT ABOUT

Folks, you are being played right now.  The stuff in the ME is all part of a plan to bring down Christianity and I Slam in order to usher in "the alternative" religion that will fix everything.

"The First World War must be brought about in order to permit the Illuminati to overthrow the power of the Czars in Russia and of making that country a fortress of atheistic Communism. The divergences caused by the "agentur" (agents) of the Illuminati between the British and Germanic Empires will be used to foment this war. At the end of the war, Communism will be built and used in order to destroy the other governments and in order to weaken the religions."
"The Second World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences between the Fascists and the political Zionists. This war must be brought about so that Nazism is destroyed and that the political Zionism be strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine. During the Second World War, International Communism must become strong enough in order to balance Christendom, which would be then restrained and held in check until the time when we would need it for the final social cataclysm."
"The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the "agentur" of the "Illuminati" between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time."


Even though the source is from a "spirit guide" (and we all know what that is....), I think they got arrogant and tried to announce their plans before committing them.

Here is a link to the post that I did on this right at the time that I found out that Obama is one of the major players as an A/C that would cause war to be poured upon ALL nations.  Remember, if you get distressed about world events or at me saying that the USA is the GREAT SATAN - that the Lord will make an end to ALL NATIONS!  Not just a few - to ALL nations.  So, that would include this one.  Unruffle your feathers, if they were ruffled, then get over it and move on in correct doctrine.  And thank you very much for letting me straighten you out on a few things that most do not get.....

The Basque History of the World
Written by: Mark Kurlansky

Excerpt ~ Chapter One
1.The Basque Myth
The Basques share with the Celts the privilege of indulging in unrivaled extravagance on the subject of themselves. —Miguel de Unamuno quoting Ampère, HISTORY OF FRENCH LITERATURE BEFORE THE TWELFTH CENTURY, 1884

The Basques seem to be a mythical people, almost an imagined people. Their ancient culture is filled with undated legends and customs. Their land itself, a world of red-roofed, whitewashed towns, tough green mountains, rocky crests, a cobalt sea that turns charcoal in stormy weather, a strange language, and big berets, exists on no maps except their own.

Basqueland begins at the Adour River with its mouth at Bayonne-the river that separates the Basques from the French pine forest swampland of Landes-and ends at the Ebro River, whose rich valley separates the dry red Spanish earth of Rioja from Basqueland. Basqueland looks too green to be Spain and too rugged to be France. The entire area is only 8,218 square miles, which is slightly smaller than New Hampshire.

Within this small space are seven Basque provinces. Four provinces are in Spain and have Basque and Spanish names: Nafaroa or Navarra, Gipuzkoa or Guipúzcoa, Bizkaia or Vizcaya, and Araba or Alava. Three are in France and have Basque and French names: Lapurdi or Labourd, Benafaroa or Basse Navarre, and Zuberoa or Soule. An old form of Basque nationalist graffiti is "4 + 3 = 1."

As with most everything pertaining to Basques, the provinces are defined by language. There are seven dialects of the Basque language, though there are sub-dialects within some of the provinces.

In the Basque language, which is called Euskera, there is no word for Basque. The only word to identify a member of their group is Eushaldun-Euskera speaker. Their land is called Euskal Herria-the land of Euskera speakers. It is language that defines a Basque.

The Central Mystery Is: Who are the Basques? The early Basques left no written records, and the first accounts of them, two centuries after the Romans arrived in 218 B.C., give the impression that they were already an ancient-or at least not a new-people. Artifacts predating this time that have been found in the area-a few tools, drawings in caves, and the rudiments of ruins-cannot be proved to have been made by Basques, though it is supposed that at least some of them were.

Ample evidence exists that the Basques are a physically distinct group. There is a Basque type with a long straight nose, thick eyebrows, strong chin, and long earlobes. Even today, sitting in a bar in a mountainous river valley town like Tolosa, watching men play mus, the popular card game, one can see a similarity in the faces, despite considerable intermarriage. Personalities, of course, carve very different visages, but over and over again, from behind a hand of cards, the same eyebrows, chin, and nose can be seen. The identical dark navy wool berets so many men wear-each in a slightly different manner-seem to showcase the long Basque ears sticking out on the sides. In past eras, when Spaniards and French were typically fairly small people, Basque men were characteristically larger, thick chested, broad shouldered, and burly. Because these were also characteristics of Cro-Magnons, Basques are often thought to be direct descendants of this man who lived 40,000 years ago.

Less subjective physical evidence of an ancient and distinct group has also surfaced. In the beginning of the twentieth century, it was discovered that all blood was one of three types: A, B, or O. Basques have the highest concentration of type O in the world-more than 50 percent of the population-with an even higher percentage in remote areas where the language is best preserved, such as Soule. Most of the rest are type A. Type B is extremely rare among Basques. With the finding that Irish, Scots, Corsicans, and Cretans also have an unusually high incidence of type O, speculation ran wild that these peoples were somehow related to Basques. But then, in 1937, came the discovery of the rhesus factor, more commonly known as Rh positive or Rh negative. Basques were found to have the highest incidence of Rh negative blood of any people in the world, significantly higher than the rest of Europe, even significantly higher than neighboring regions of France and Spain. Cro-Magnon theorists point out that other places known to have been occupied by Cro-Magnon man, such as the Atlas Mountains of Morocco and the Canary Islands, also have been found to have a high incidence of Rh negative.

Twenty-seven percent of Basques have O Rh negative blood. Rh negative blood in a pregnant woman can fatally poison a fetus that has positive blood. Since World War II, intervention techniques to save the fetus have been developed, but it is probable that throughout history, the rate of miscarriage and stillborn births among the Basques was extremely high, which may be one of the reasons they remained a small population on a limited amount of land while other populations, especially in Iberia, grew rapidly.

Before Basque blood was studied as a key to their origins, several attempts were made to analyze the structure of Basque skulls. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, a researcher reported, "Someone gave me a Basque body and I dissected it and I assert that the head was not built like that of other men."
Studies of Basque skulls in the nineteenth century concluded, depending on whose study is believed, that Basques were either Turks, Tartars, Magyars, Germans, Laplanders, or the descendants of Cro-Magnon man either originating in Basqueland or coming from the Berbers of North Africa.

Or do clothes hold the secret to Basque origins? A twelfth-century writer, Aimeric de Picaud, considered not skulls but skirts, concluding after seeing Basque men in short ones that they were clearly descendants of Scots.
The most useful artifact left behind by the ancient Basques is their language. Linguists find that while the language has adopted foreign words, the grammar has proved resistant to change, so that modern Euskera is thought to be far closer to its ancient form than modern Greek is to ancient Greek. Euskera has extremely complex verbs and twelve cases, few forms of politeness, a limited number of abstractions, a rich vocabulary for natural phenomena, and no prepositions or articles.

Etxea is the word for a house or home. "At home" is etxean. "To the house" is etxera. "From home" is etxetik. Concepts are formed by adding more and more suffixes, which is what is known as an agglutinating language. This agglutinating language only has about 200,000 words, but its vocabulary is greatly extended by almost 200 standard suffixes. In contrast, the Oxford English Dictionary was compiled from a data base of 60 million words, but English is a language with an unusually large vocabulary. It is sometimes said that Euskera includes just nouns, verbs, and suffixes, but relatively simple concepts can become words of formidable size. Iparsortalderatu is a verb meaning "to head in a northeasterly direction."

Euskera has often been dismissed as an impossible language. Arturo Campión, a nineteenth-century Basque writer from Navarra, complained that the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy defined Euskera as "the Basque language, so confusing and obscure that it can hardly be understood." It is obscure but not especially confusing. The language seems more difficult than it is because it is so unfamiliar, so different from other languages. Its profusion of ks and xs looks intimidating on the page, but the language is largely phonetic with some minor pitfalls, such as a very soft b and an aspirated h as in English, which is difficult for French and Spanish speakers to pronounce. The x is pronounced "ch." Etxea is pronounced "et-CHAY-a." For centuries Spanish speakers made Euskera seem friendlier to them by changing xs to chs as in echea, and ks, which do not exist in Latin languages, to cs, as in Euscera. To English speakers, Basque spellings are often more phonetic than Spanish equivalents. The town the Spanish call Guernica is pronounced the way the Basques write it-Gernika.

The structure of the language-roots and suffixes-offers important clues about Basque origins. The modern words aitzur, meaning "hoe," aizkora, meaning "axe," aizto, meaning "knife," plus various words for digging and cutting, all come from the word haitz or the older aitz, which means "stone." Such etymology seems to indicate a very old language, indeed from the Stone Age. Even though the language has acquired newer words, notably Latin from the Romans and the Church, and Spanish, such words are used in a manner unique to this ancestral language. Ezpata, like the Spanish word espada, means "sword." But ezpatakada means "the blow from a sword," ezpatajoka means "fencing," and espatadantzari is a "sword dancer."

Though numerous attempts have been made, no one has ever found a linguistic relative of Euskera. It is an orphan language that does not even belong to the Indo-European family of languages. This is a remarkable fact because once the Indo-Europeans began their Bronze Age sweep from the Asian subcontinent across Europe, virtually no group, no matter how isolated, was left untouched. Even Celtic is Indo-European. Finnish, Estonian, and Hungarian are the only other living European languages that are not related to the Indo-European group. Inevitably there have been theories linking Finnish and Euskera or Hungarian and Euskera. Did the Basques immigrate from Lapland? Hungarian, it has been pointed out, is also an agglutinating language. But no other connection has been found between the Basque language and its fellow agglutinators.

A brief attempt to tie the Basques to the Picts, ancient occupants of Britain who spoke a language thought to be pre-Indo-European, fell apart when it was discovered the Picts weren't non-Indo-European at all, but were Celtic.
If, as appears to be the case, the Basque language predates the Indo-European invasion, if it is an early or even pre-Bronze Age tongue, it is very likely the oldest living European language.

If Euskera is the oldest living European language, are Basques the oldest European culture? For centuries that question has driven both Basques and non-Basques on the quest to find the Basque origin. Miguel de Unamuno, one of the best-known Basque writers, devoted his earliest work, written in 1884 when he was still a student, to the question. "I am Basque," he began, "and so I arrive with suspicion and caution at this little and poorly garnered subject."

As Unamuno pointed out, and this is still true today, many researchers have not hesitated to employ a liberal dose of imagination. One theory not only has Adam and Eve speaking Euskera but has the language predating their expulsion from the Garden of Eden. The name Eve, according to this theory, comes from ezbai, "no-yes" in Euskera. The walls of Jericho crumbled, it was also discovered, when trumpets blasted a Basque hymn.

The vagaries of fact and fiction were encouraged by the fact that the Basques were so late to document their language. The first book entirely in Euskera was not published until 1545. No Basques had attempted to study their own history or origins until the sixteenth-century Guipúzcoan Esteban de Garibay. Spanish historians of the time had already claimed that Iberia was populated by descendants of Tubal, Noah's grandson, who went to Iberia thirty-five years after the Flood subsided. Garibay observed that Basque place-names bore a resemblance to those in Armenia where the ark landed, and therefore it was specifically the Basques who descended from Tubal. Was not Mount Gorbeya in southern Vizcaya named after Mount Gordeya in Armenia? Garibay traced Euskera to the Tower of Babel.

In 1729, when Manuel de Larramendi wrote the first book of Basque grammar ever published, he asserted that Euskera was one of seventy-five languages to have developed out of the confusion at the Tower of Babel. According to Juan Bautista de Erro, whose The Primitive World or a Philosophical Examination of Antiquity and Culture of the Basque Nation was published in Madrid in 1815, Euskera is the world's oldest language, having been devised by God as the language of Adam's Paradise, preserved in the Tower of Babel, surviving the Flood because Noah spoke the language, and brought to present-day Basque country by Tubal.

In one popular legend, the first Basque was Aïtor, one of a few remarkable men who survived the Flood without Noah's ark, by leaping from stone to stone. However, Aïtor, still recognized by some as the father of all Basques, was invented in 1848 by the French Basque writer Augustin Chaho. After Chaho's article on Aïtor was translated into Spanish in 1878, the legend grew and became a mainstay of Basque culture. Some who said Aïtor was mere fiction went on to hypothesize that the real father of all Basques was Tubal.

Since then, links have been conjectured with languages of the Caucasus, Africa, Siberia, and Japan. One nineteenth-century researcher concluded that Basques were a Celtic tribe, another that they were Etruscans. And inevitably it has been discovered that the Basques, like so many other peoples, were actually the lost thirteenth tribe of Israel. Just as inescapably, others have concluded that the Basques are, in reality, the survivors of Atlantis.

A case for the Basques really being Jews was carefully made by a French clergyman, the abbot J. Espagnolle, in a 1900 book titled L'Origine des Basques (The Origin of the Basques). For this theory to work, the reader first had to realize that the people of ancient Sparta were Jewish. To support this claim, Espagnolle quotes a historian of ancient Greece who wrote, "Love of money is a Spartan characteristic." If this was not proof enough, he also argues that Sparta, like Judea, had a lack of artisans. The wearing of hats and respect for elders were among further evidence offered. From there, it was simply a matter of asserting, as ancient Greek historians had, he said, that the Spartans colonized northern Spain. And of course these Spartan colonists who later became Basques were Jewish.

With issues of nationhood at stake, such seemingly desperate hypotheses may not be devoid of political motives. "Indigenous" is a powerful notion to both the French and Spanish states. Both define their history as the struggle of their people, the rightful indigenous occupants, to defend their land against the Moors, invaders from another place, of another race, and of another religion. In Europe, this heroic struggle has long been an essential underpinning of both nationalism and racism. The idea that Basques were in their European mountains, speaking their own indigenous European language, long before the French and the Spanish, is disturbing to French and Spanish nationalists. Unless the Basques can be shown to be from somewhere else, the Spanish and French are transformed into the Moorish role-outside invaders imposing an alien culture. From the sixteenth century on, historians receiving government salaries in Madrid wrote histories that deliberately minimized the possibility of indigenous Basques.

But the Basques like the idea, which most evidence supports, that they are the original Europeans, predating all others. If true, it must have been an isolating experience, belonging to this ancient people whose culture had little in common with any of its neighbors. It was written over and over in the records of those who observed the Basques that they spoke a strange language that kept them apart from others. But it is also what kept them together as a people, uniting them to withstand Europe's great invasions.

AMERICA IS ABOUT TO GET HERS - THE LAW OF THE HARVEST

There is a reason I said I now despise America.  She is hated throughout the world.  If you were too busy watching the baseball playoffs or the football games to notice after the Sept 11th attacks, people from all over were cheering at our expense - we are hated.  Now, she is guilty of supplying arms to groups that have started (yes, we are in WWIII - unless you are blind) WWIII.  The A/C and walking turd, bummer has caused war to be poured out upon all nations.  That which a country sows, that also shall it reap.  Very basic - that is how it is.  God is not complicated in how He deals with spoiled and disobedient children.

I got hammered in the comments from people that I feel should know better.  I generally do not respond to individual comments for lack of time and feeling the need to address all if I address one comment.  So, I will do a blanket roast....  Do you not realize that all of the hellish institutions of the world are embodied in America?  We started them??  Banking, World Trade, UN, CIA,  world news organs, Hollywood that spews filth and pornography and many world religions which enslave and keep people in ignorance?  In supporting this culture, we support the adversary in his purposes.  Truly, in order to fully extract ourselves from the concept of babylon, we have to extract ourselves from the constructs that we are awash in and heavily vested in.  America is the WHORE WHO SITS ON MANY WATERS (read empire).  We project our hellish filth the world round - and have caused many nations and peoples to partake in our sins.  We, as a people who should be enlightened - have refused to reject the filth streamed into our homes on the glowing boxes.  For this, we bear the burden of a ruined generation that cannot discern right from wrong - because they are told that this thing that Bruce Jenner has become, is normal and acceptable.

If you would like to wave the flag and wrap yourselves in it in ignorance - that is fine with me.  Just don't "come gritchin to me" when it all goes south and you are nursing radiation burns in your dazed condition.....  The proof as to how the Lord sees our nation will be clearly burned in our collective memories.  It will make two towers collapsing on Sept 11th look like child's play.

The only vestige that will make it into the Millennium is the Constitution - or portions of it.  The flag?  What it represents?  The empire - and all the hell it has brought to people who just want to live their lives in the past 40 years?  Not a shred left.  It must be so - for the only thing that will remain is the Godly government found in the New Jerusalem.

Rant off.....

(NaturalNews) Little-discussed in the run-up to Barack Obama's first presidential campaign in 2008 (or since) were some facts about his earlier life that were otherwise well-known in his hometown of Chicago -- namely, that he was a student of Communist radical Saul Alinsky and "revolutionary" Bill Ayers.

For those who are unfamiliar with these men, Alinsky, author of Rules for Radicals, was a prominent "community organizer" (like Obama used to be) who, according to the Chicago Sun-Times, influenced generations of organizers, "including the church-based group" that hired "a young Obama to work on Chicago's South Side in the 1980s."

Ayers, meanwhile, was a co-founder of the Weather Underground, a domestic terrorist group that conducted a series of bombings during the 1960s and early 1970s. In October 2013, Ayers admitted holding Obama's initial fundraiser, and even "uncharacteristically" donated some money to his campaign.

They were planning "to eliminate 25 million people"

Ayers, in particular, is noteworthy, because of plans he and his organization developed during their "revolutionary" period which smacked of something right out of Nazi Germany: Namely, that their goal was not just the overthrow of the constitutional republic of the United States, but the mass elimination of tens of millions of Americans who he and other members of his group believed would never go along with them.

This was discussed in some detail by former FBI undercover agent Larry Grathwohl, now deceased, in a 1982 documentary called No Place to Hide.

And it is why now, in the context of the coming Jade Helm 15 exercises, in which scores of U.S. military special operations forces will be operating among the general public in several South and Southwestern states for eight weeks beginning in mid-July, the commander-in-chief's personal history is especially important.

In his interview, Grathwohl laid out the sinister plan of Ayers and his Weather Underground:

I brought up the subject of what's going to happen after we take over the government. You know, we -- we -- become responsible, then, for administrating, you know, 250 million people. And there was no answer. No one had given any thought to economics, how are you gonna clothe and feed these people.

The only thing that I could get was that they expected that the Cubans and the North Vietnamese and the Chinese and the Russians would all want to occupy different portions of the United States.

They also believed that their immediate responsibility would be to protect against what they called the "counter-revolution." And, they felt that this counter-revolution could best be guarded against by creating and establishing reeducation centers in the Southwest
[our emphasis]... where we would take all of the people who needed to be reeducated into the new way of thinking, and teach them how things were going to be.

I asked, "Well, what is going to happen to those people we can't reeducate -- that are diehard capitalists?" And the reply was that they would have to be eliminated. And when I pursued this further they estimated that they would have to eliminate 25 million people in these reeducation centers. And when I say eliminate, I mean
kill. Twenty-five million people.

Now, I want you to imagine sitting in a room with 25 people -- most of which have graduate degrees from Columbia
[University in New York] and other well-known education centers -- and hear them figuring out the logistics for the elimination of 25 million people.

And they were dead serious.


Two peas in a pod - and here comes another one

In their heyday, members of the Weather Underground, who included Ayers' wife, Bernadine Dohrn, stayed extensively in the communist enclaves of Vietnam, Russia (then the USSR) and Cuba, according to this 1976 report by the FBI.[PDF]

All old news, right? Maybe -- and maybe not. Obama's recent overtures to still-communist Cuba and the authoritarian Iranian regime belie his stated allegiance to the U.S.

One other thing. As noted on the back cover of Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, the master revolutionary also "impressed a young [Hillary] Clinton, who was growing up in Park Ridge at the time Alinsky was the director of the Industrial Areas Foundation in Chicago."

Clinton announced her own bid for the White House April 12.

PREPARING OURSELVES FOR ZION

I have a sister (I think my recent Hurricane Patricia nomer may just stick...) who insists I am not following the Prophet (the one I first learned about what pot was as a 10 year old - that one).  She, like so many others who are STILL practicing unrepented evil and following babylon, instead of what is written in scripture - would attempt to call me out and pull me off message.  I know if someone is off spiritually, because they show themselves and who they really are at the utmost inopportune times.  There are others whom I interact with who seem to know EXACTLY when to call or say the PERFECT thing that will bring me closer to accomplishing my mission.  THOSE, I know, are under the influence of the Spirit of the Lord.  All else?  Well, you know the answer.... 

So, yes - that right there is a key in judging righteous judgment - to know whether something or someone is coming from a position of power - or not.  Does what they do take you closer to God and fulfilling your mission/potential, or do they detract.  Simple - powerful.  I have used it to cast many a person out of my life who should not be a part of it in this increasingly dysfunctional world.

There is a FB pal of mine who is always spot on in her message.  She shared this and I thought it was good enough to post:

Excellent comments from brother Richard Draper. He is an authority on the Book of Revelations.
“Between now and the time we build Zion – we are vulnerable.
Why don’t church leaders speak out more and warn about the last days and what’s coming?
Why is there no show of strength by the Church?
Why is there so much evil?
Why is there no parting of the Red Sea, as it were, or the ten plagues?
Why is there no drying up of the heavens, or plagues under the administration of the prophet?
Why is it that the church leaders do not march forth in strong defensive, rising up to condemn the nation like the prophets of old?
Where is the equivalent of the burden of Babylon, or the burden of Assyria, or the burden of Moab?
We are just not hearing about these things !
Why do the leaders sit quietly, doing the inner work of the kingdom – rather than battling for righteousness by buying prime time slots on TV, holding huge rallies, or shouting hell fire against the sin centers of the world. Even the missionaries are encouraged not to contend, but to preach with love.
Could it be that we are now in the one thousand two hundred and sixty days when the beast walks the land? Are we now in the time, times and half-time when the three and ½ years commence? Are we in the midst of the forty two months? Could it be that evil really is supposed to have the upper hand, to do its work ... almost unhindered (at least for the time being)? Is it really possible?
The Book of Revelation in the New Testament provides an answer. It shows us that the path of the church is not to actively fight against Babylon, or to put her down. She is to grow fat and sassy and to grow ever more arrogant and strong; and to remain ignorant that the day of her destruction is not far distant.
Our job is to flee Babylon (repent), gather Israel through the preaching of the gospel; perfect the Saints, redeem the dead, and build Zion.
The church does not have the resources to fight against principles, institutions or people. Every ounce of energy (financial and human) must be used for people, for morality, for goodness – not for actively opposing Babylon. In the Book of Revelation, the 144,000 nor the Saints, take part in any opposition against Babylon, the dragon, the beast, or false prophets. The Saints are absent from all battlefields. The 144,000 are engaged only in the gathering of those of Israel who will come to the church of the firstborn. The only task that The Book of Revelation assigns to the Saints, is to worship God and not the beast; to endure in faith, maintain virtue, to withstand persecution, and to preach the gospel of God.
Evil really has to have its day! Therefore, the church, for the present, is in a kind of isolation mode – concerned mostly with itself and internal affairs, strengthening its doctrinal and theological foundation – adding to its membership all who will come, and leaving the rest of the world to build that part of hell in which they will soon fall. Yes, evil really has to have its day. This world is in the kind of stage on which the cosmos will be able to see the self destructive nature of unrighteousness. Wickedness is going to come down! It is wickedness that is going to bring wickedness down. (The prophet won’t need to do it – the wicked will bring it on themselves.) And the cosmos is going to be able to see that. And just at the point where everyone has learned this lesson . . . then God is going to step in and save the world.”
God laid out the plan for this world before it was created, and Jesus Christ is carrying out that plan in flawless detail. The Prophet and Apostles today are doing their part in carrying out that plan just as it was designed by God. We have been warned – and now we are being tested to see if we will be obedient to the prophet.
God’s plan is working. The question is – are we?

WE HAVE A DICTATOR IN POWER

Yep, this is the one who Cleon Skousen spoke of.  He has caused war to be poured out upon ALL nations.  This is biblical.

Let me be clear, I have a friend who is a doctor in Kalispell who, due to outstanding student loans for med school, has been ORDERED INTO SERVICE to be part of a clinic's services on a local Indian reservation where they are having trouble attracting doctors.  The paychecks she receives for her services are being cut by - get this - Homeland Security.....  She was drafted (house threatened if she refused to play ball) by our government. 

When we are officially in war, the same laws allow them to press engineers into service for the war machine.  I WILL NOT be a part of this.  I hate this country......  or what they have done to this country.

Here is the thing that got me spun up:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=gowcxjJnlE4

And no, I NO LONGER pledge allegiance to the flag (which represents the regime in power) - but I will insert in there allegiance to the Constitution.  I no longer identify with the actions of those in power.  Stick a fork in it already - this nation's goose is cooked!

PLEASE, PLEASE, PULEEEEEZE LET THIS BE IT.... :)

I will do my happy dance - for like days.  Why would I do that?

I have de-coupled from the system.  I despise babylon with every fiber of my being.  It is corrupt as can be and it props up a regime that is so depraved and corrupt as to be past the point of no return.  This nation has crossed that line on so many levels.  It is TIME.

Here is the article:

http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/expert-that-correctly-predicted-market-moves-in-july-august-and-september-says-stocks-will-crash-in-november

When the market goes down, true colors will be revealed of all people.  We either are of a terrestrial or celestial caliber, or we are still miring in the muck of a telestial and fallen world.  This one event will produce the fruits and expose us as individuals, families, communities and nations as to who we are.

Lord, come quickly!

THE MOTHER-LODE OF SECOND COMING QUOTES BY JOSEPH SMITH

How many can you check off of the list?:

WHAT??

I despise anything to do with UFO's.  The people I know who are into them are all drunks or messed up, psychotic people.  Not a SINGLE person I consider credible has any credible evidence to bring to the table (I am talking little green men with antennas), other than statements about the City of Enoch or the ten tribes incoming from outer space....  Normal people, if not a little taller than average....

Anyway - this is something to put in the craw.  I believe we should not be gullible - but we can never be TOO believing on things that pass the doctrinal/logic test:

LAYING UP FOR TIMES OF DIFFICULTY - JOSEPH SMITH


Lovely quote - as usual that I endorse:
"Verily I say unto you: If the church with one united effort perform their duties If they do this the work shall be complete If they do not this in all humility making preparation from this time forth like Joseph in Egypt laying up store against the time of famine every man having his tent, his horses, his chariots, his ARMORY his cattle his family and his whole substance in readiness against the time it shall be said To your tents O Isreal!! and let not this be noised abroad let every heart beat in silence and every mouth be shut"

A LIST WHY THINGS ARE NOT AS THEY SHOULD BE

FROM THIS SOURCE:







Millions of Americans were gearing up for some huge event to happen in September, but the world didn't end and now many of them have given up entirely on prepping.  Of course the truth is that some absolutely earth-shattering events did take place last month, but because September did not play out exactly as some were anticipating, a lot of people feel very let down. 

My contacts in the emergency food industry tell me that sales have dropped off dramatically, and yesterday I was told by someone that I trust that the same is true for those that sell precious metals.  But this should not be happening.  What we witnessed in August and September was just the warm up act, and all of the numbers are absolutely screaming at us that we are right on track for a major global crisis.  In this article I am going to focus on economic and financial issues, but there are so many other things going on around the planet right now that threaten to throw our world into turmoil.

Anyone that thinks that it is safe to "relax" now is simply not paying attention. 

The following are 20 reasons why all the people that quit prepping after September are dead wrong...
#1 U.S. exports are down 11 percent for the year so far.  The only other times they have fallen this dramatically since the turn of the century were during the last two recessions.
#2 Since March, the amount of stuff being shipped by truck, rail and air inside the United States has been falling every single month on a year over year basis.  This is a clear indication that economic activity is really slowing down.

#3 Wholesale sales in the U.S. have fallen to the lowest level since the last recession.
#4 The inventory to sales ratio has risen to the highest level since the last recession.  This means that there is a whole lot of unsold inventory that is just sitting around out there and not selling.
#5 Industrial production declined for five months in a row during the first half of 2015.  That is something that has never happened outside of a recession.
#6 Wal-Mart is projecting that its earnings may fall by as much as 12 percent during the next fiscal year.
#7 Don't expect U.S. consumers to rush in and save the day.  According to brand new numbers from the Social Security Administration, 51 percent of all American workers make less than $30,000 a year.  

#8 And remember, there are
102.6 million working age Americans that do not even have a job of any kind.
#9 According to Challenger Gray, layoffs at major firms have risen to the highest level that we have witnessed since 2009.
#10 The number of job openings in the United States declined by 5.3 percent  during the month of August. That was a huge plunge for just one month
