The Empire Slips Back

I am wondering if people really pay attention to what is being broadcast to them on the nightly news. Many people are unaware that news reporting changed significantly after the 24-hour news cycle was invented. True objectivity in the news room became a casualty after the intelligence agencies in the country realized the power of using the fourth estate as a propaganda machine.

When I was learning the ropes of reporting solid news, I was motivated by the phrase “public’s right to know.” This phrase has been synonymous with freedom of the press and there was a time when the press was granted special privilege because of this freedom and the obligation that every reporter has to be a surrogate in vindicating the public’s rights.

It must be emphasized that there is a deep responsibility for those in the press to keep the actions of government honest, and that includes reporting uncomfortable information to the public.

Some 20 years ago, the press was granted preferred status amongst all communicators. People who chose careers in the press were respected and were granted special privileges and legal protection.

True reporters and those without a bias need legal protection now more than ever, because it seems that the empire’s ability to silence an honest reporter is becoming easier and the people are far more interested in silencing someone who reports the unpopular view than allowing that view to be considered and either debated or shown to be either true or false.

The State department has won over the hearts and minds of most of the public and it appears that the court of public opinion is now blind and finds ways of creating conflict with anyone who wishes to keep the empire honest.

Things like “fair comment” and the “public’s right to know” were not always well-defined, but they were most certainly used as a defense mechanism to allow reporters and talk show hosts the ability to express their opinions, editorials, and facts in order for the public to make well-informed decisions..

Time and time again we are seeing the once-privileged fourth estate and the public’s right to know being replaced with propaganda that is meant to suspend the public’s critical judgment of those who govern them.

We are now going to be lulled into accepting the idea of being governed by well-to-do bureaucrats who make laws for our own good and hand out money and benefits to the deserving. We will be told that the people they use wisdom and intelligence to target people for incarceration or for death, and that if we question or challenge their decisions, we will be considered mentally unfit to function as a citizen.

It is a fact that Americans make decisions based on their prejudices, and those prejudices are created in the court of public opinion — and that public opinion is influenced by the press.

I would like to point out that Ground Zero had filed a report about an incident that took place on the house floor when 91 year old Henry Kissinger was asked to testify about “Global Challenges and the U.S, National Security strategy. CODE PINK a radical left protest group entered the building and demanded that Kissinger be arrested for war crimes.

John McCain hosted the proceedings and when CODE PINK took to the floor he called them disgraceful and eventually called them “low-life scum.” What is really disgraceful is the Senate calling in a tired old war criminal to testify about “Global Challenges and the U.S. National Security Strategy. It is disgraceful to admit that in the United States there are still war hawk supporters of politicians that have been hired to actually go in and destabilize countries including our own by making deals with the enemy.

McCain while being supported by the war hawk contingency is literally venting his spleen to reporters, with Freudian slips after Freudian slips that indicate that he along with assumed unnamed cryptocratic war mongers are literally creating and funding the Islamic state.

Recently revealed conversations between the Pentagon and the Kaddafi regime in 2011 show that then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was serving the Muslim Brotherhood by pushing a false narrative to justify the removal of Muammar Kaddafi.

In the meantime the conspiracy reaches into both parties demonstrating that the right wing and left wing are a sham.

Republican Senator John McCain was likely just as invested in facilitating the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood in Libya as Hillary Clinton was.

The question is, for what reason?

Any discussion about what happened in Benghazi on the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 is avoided and is usually deferred by argumentum over weapons shipments to Syria.

Americans who watch the news are actually so galvanized against Islam that they are having a hard time differentiating between the free Syrian Army, Palestinian rebels, the Iranian government, ISIS, Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood.

With this process of smearing the substance our leadership is using our ignorance in order to establish a war foothold and funding the enemy. Now we know the reason why Barack Obama will not mix the substance of Islam and ISIS.

It is not good for the war business.

Keep in mind that two years ago Barack Obama did not want to fund the Syrian rebels, refused to so in the national security meeting where John McCain later admitted on the Fox news Show “On the Record” with Greta van Susteren that the National Security Committee wanted to fund ISIS.Less than six months later the news was flooded with stories of the new Islamic death cult called ISIS.

This is where the empire has slipped back.

Obama has been left out of the loop. He is pushing back but doesn’t want to fall into the machinations of the neo-con trap. This is why he skips his national security meetings. This why he does not want to be seen in the same room as Benjamin Netanyahu. This is why he did not go and march in solidarity at the “Je Suis Charlie” rally in France when Netanyahu invited himself, and it is also why Obama refuses to meet with Netanyahu when he arrives in the United States in March to address congress.

A lot of Democrats have stated they will boycott the visit. We are witnessing the full controlled demolition of the United Sates at the hands of war criminals and strategists that are working for the ultimate goal of handing over the entire Middle East to the Islamic State just so they can fight it.

I know this sound ludicrous but think about what is being said, and think what is not being said in the media.

When John McCain attended the US-Islamic World Forum co sponsored by the nation of Qatar and the Brookings Institute in 2011 McCain referred to the Arab Spring as a “seismic event” he was thrilled to be a part of and said he hoped it would spread to Russia and China.

On April 22, 2011. McCain was in Benghazi with U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens and told an Al-Jazeera reporter that the Libyan (Muslim Brotherhood) rebels were his “heroes” on the same day they were receiving weapons.

Today at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington once again some peculiar words were dropped by the President himself.

Obama offered a special welcome to a “good friend,” the Dalai Lama, seated at a table in front of the dais among the audience of 3,600. Earlier Obama, seated at the head table, pressed his hands together in a prayer-like position and bowed his head toward the Dalai Lama, then gave him a wave and a broad smile.

It was the first time the president and the Tibetan Buddhist leader attended the same public event, with China objecting to foreign leaders meeting with the Dalai Lama because of his quest for greater Tibetan autonomy from Beijing. Obama’s three previous meetings with the Dalai Lama have been private because of the sensitivity of the situation.

Obama had a more non-denominational message for the audience that also included prominent leaders of non-Christian faiths. The president said that while religion is a source for good around the world, people of all faiths have been willing to “hijack religion for their own murderous ends.”

Acting as an apologist for Islam and their radical faction Obama stated:

Unless we get on our high horse and think that this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ. In our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ.

So it is not unique to one group or one religion. There is a tendency in us, a simple tendency that can pervert and distort our faith.

Unbelievable.

This should be reported as a public relations disaster and fuels the conspiracy theory that their plan is to create a monster that can be fought and used against a country like Iran.

Keep in mind also that McCain has worked with the Obama administration for the last several years to arm radical jihadists across the region in an admitted decades-long plan to overthrow the governments of several countries including Iraq, Libya and Syria.

McCain has been cheerleading the CIA’s plans to provide support to the “Libyan rebels” even as Libyan rebel leader Abdel-Hakim al-Hasidi admitted to working with Al Qaeda. Only months later, those same “rebels” would place an Al Qaeda flag on top of the courthouse in Benghazi.

But of course there are many that agree with Hillary Clinton when she said, with regard to the scandal, “What difference does it make?”

To those facilitating the conspiracy there is no difference. They are all part of the destabilization process which includes the destruction of the United States as well.

McCain traveled to Syria last year to meet with senior members of the Asifat al-Shamal Brigade as well as the Free Syrian Army, two groups that have admittedly “pledged allegiance to Al Qaeda.”

It all seems so confusing to the average American whose politics have been narrowed down to right or left, red state or blue state. The truth is, the guise is slowly losing its ability to fool those who pay attention.

Especially when the men at the secret meeting with McCain were found to be Al Qaeda radicals accused of kidnapping 11 Lebanese pilgrims.

We are being told by various commentators who serve the state department in the newsroom. That McCain and Obama only support “moderate rebels.” McCain of course has been seen in “selfies.” Posing with radicals and even one purports to show that he allegedly is posing alongside the appointed caliph of ISIS, Abu Bakar Al-Baghdadi.

However some are claiming this is a hoax photo, albeit a hoax photo that includes real Isis warriors, or Al-Qaeda warriors who eventually merged with ISIS.

Free Syrian Army Commander Jamal Maarouf admitted in 2014 that his fighters regularly fight alongside Al Qaeda, the same Al Qaeda now “merging” with ISIS on the Syria-Iraq border.

Thousands of jihadists were even trained by US instructors at a secret base in neighboring Jordan before fleeing to Iraq to join ISIS according to one Jordanian official. Similarly, a recent PBS News report featured jihadists who admitted to being trained in Qatar by US forces.

It has been said that the world is not held together by truth — just the opposite is true. The world is lumped together by lies but falls apart slowly. We choose to listen to the lies and accept them because of guilt and the shame of knowing that we have been betrayed by those we have trusted.

If everyone were to suddenly speak the truth, the uncovering of an abundance of long buried secrets would tear the planet apart much quicker – like pulling a single thread from a piece of material that continues to unravel. The more in unravels the more we see the uncovering of what has been covered up. This is what is called the beginning of an apocalypse.

The mainstream media is banking on the fact that many of us have an insufficient understanding of the world around us. They are hoping that this is enough to frighten you into listening and obeying their line of authority.

I can only pray that those who seek the truth will hang on to their moral compass and use it to ward off the elite’s attempts at brainwashing and psychological warfare.
