I agree with this take on Fox News, which has done a great deal

Well said. When it started has been documented. It began shortly
after the Powel memo was written. The Powell memo is the root of
the Orwellian mindset that takes the responsibility of the
government (see U.S. Constitution capitalized Welfare clause) to
provide for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness the
social programs that benefit the entire populace (SS, Medicare,
Anti-Trust laws, unemployment compensation, maternity leave,
sick leave, LIVABLE minimum wage, progressive taxation,
collective bargaining rights, etc.) as an attack (rather than
the actual and proven BENEFIT that all these improvements have
brought to our nation) on "business", which they cleverly give
the Orwellian label of "Free Enterprise". What these fascists
wanted was a government they could control to control the
workers (selective law enforcement) and allow monopolies to be
formed and crush all competition in order to concentrate wealth
in fewer and fewer hands AND make sure the elite crooks and
liars doing this nefarious nation destroying and pulverizing of
individual freedom and liberty of the people have TOTAL FREEDOM
TO EXPLOIT WITHOUT CONSCIENSE THE PEOPLE AND THE PLANET.
The Capitalist Oligarchs that planned this attack on
we-the-people to rip away from us all of our freedoms have
pretty much succeeded.

/>Walter Rauschenbusch, a Christian theologian, Baptist minister
and leader of the Social Gospel movement, thundered against
capitalism. He defined the six pillars of the “kingdom of evil”
as “religious bigotry, the combination of graft and political
power, the corruption of justice, the mob spirit (being ‘the
social group gone mad’) and mob action, militarism[,] and class
contempt.”
Debs turned to the Bible as often to Marx, arguing “Cain was the
author of the competitive theory” and the “cross of Jesus stands
as its eternal denial.”

Debs’
fiery speeches, replete with words like “sin” and “redemption,”
were often thinly disguised sermons. He equated the crucified
Christ with the abolitionist John Brown. He insisted that Jesus
came “to destroy class rule and set up the common people as the

he once asked. “Merely Christianity in action.” [img width=60

A great comment:
Jed Grover
In reading "The Secrets of the Federal Reserve by Mullins" it
highlights how the powerful bankers targeted our system of laws
long ago. As I read I could see strong correlations as to how
we've been manipulated into our current Orwellian sick society.
"Walter Rauschenbusch defined the six pillars of the “kingdom of
evil” as “religious bigotry, the combination of graft and
political power, the corruption of justice, the mob spirit
(being ‘the social group gone mad’) and mob action,
militarism[,] and class contempt.”
Excerpted from chapter 5 "Bauer Rothschild" was only thirty
years of age when he invited twelve other wealthy and
influential men to meet him in Frankfurt. His purpose was to
convince them that if they agreed to pool their resources they
could then finance and control the World Revolutionary Movement
and use it as their Manual of Action to win ultimate control of
the wealth, natural resources, and manpower of the entire world.
This agreement reached, Mayer unfolded his revolutionary plan.
The project would be backed by all the power that could be
purchased with their pooled resources. By clever manipulation of
their combined wealth it would be possible to create such
adverse economic conditions that the masses would be reduced to
a state bordering on starvation by unemployment... Their paid
propagandists would arouse feelings of hatred and revenge
against the ruling classes by exposing all real and alleged
cases of extravagance, licentious conduct, injustice,
oppression, and persecution. They would also invent infamies to
bring into disrepute others who might, if left alone, interfere
with their overall plans...
Rothschild turned to a manuscript and proceeded to read a
carefully prepared plan of action. 1. He argued that LAW was
FORCE only in disguise. He reasoned it was logical to conclude
'By the laws of nature right lies in force: 2. Political freedom
is an idea, not a fact. In order to usurp political power all
that was necessary was to preach 'Liberalism' so that the
electorate, for the sake of an idea, would yield some of their
power and prerogatives which the plotters could then gather into
their own hands. 3. The speaker asserted that the Power of Gold
had usurped the power of Liberal rulers .... He pointed out that
it was immaterial to the success of his plan whether the
established governments were destroyed by external or internal
foes because the victor had to of necessity ask the aid of
'Capital' which 'Is entirely in our hands' 4. He argued that the
use of any and all means to reach their final goal was justified
on the grounds that the ruler who governed by the moral code was
not a skilled politician because he left himself vulnerable and
in an unstable position. 5. He asserted that 'Our right lies in
force. The word RIGHT is an abstract thought and proves nothing.
I find a new RIGHT... to attack by the Right of the Strong, to
reconstruct all existing institutions, and to become the
sovereign Lord of all those who left to us the Rights to their
powers by laying them down to us in their liberalism. 6. The
power of our resources must remain invisible until the very
moment when it has gained such strength that no cunning or force
can undermine it. He went on to outline twenty-five points.
Number 8 dealt with the use of alcoholic liquors, drugs, moral
corruption, and all vice to systematically corrupt youth of all
nations. 9. They had the right to seize property by any means,
and without hesitation, if by doing so they secured submission
and sovereignty. 10. We were the first to put the slogans
Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity into the mouths of the masses,
which set up a new aristocracy. The qualification for this
aristocracy is WEALTH which is dependent on us. 11. Wars should
be directed so that the nations engaged on both sides should be
further in our debt. 12. Candidates for public office should be
servile and obedient to our commands, so that they may readily
be used. 13. Propaganda-their combined wealth would control all
outlets of public information. 14. Panics and financial
depressions would ultimately result in World Government, a new
order of one world government."
Interesting ..... is how this history is so well documented and
how they've pulled it off right before our own eyes.
Manufactured consent is an age old game. MSM sucks. I do hope
that we can all unite because that is the only cure. Everyone.
Sorry bout the length.

Exactly. These evil bastards plan ahead. They rig the laws and
then claim they are just following the laws that "the people"
voted for. Like the polluters, these Capitalist Greed balls are
estopped from absolutely any claim to innocence or good will
(see below).
"There is a nice legal concept called estoppel. If you argue
that you didn't kill the Major in the library with the Ming vase
because you were in bed with his wife, you are estopped from
pleading self-defence. In the same way, polluters are estopped
from arguing that they were only complying with public policy as
laid down in the law, because they spent tens of millions
shaping those policies and laws to their advantage." James
Wimberley
VERY soon the empathy deficit disordered oligarchs destroying
lives and degrading the biosphere will reach the end of their
ruthless people and nature trashing spree.

[center]How Did the Royal Navy Keep up Morale during Long
Voyages? ???
HTML http://www.pic4ever.com/images/2.gif[/center]
It’s said that Britain's Royal Navy instituted the practice of
doling out a daily ration of rum as a way to fend off scurvy, a
common ailment on ships because sailors didn’t have access to
fresh produce and often lacked Vitamin C. However, it wasn’t the
rum that helped, but the lime juice that was provided with the
sailor’s daily “tot,” served every day around noon for more than
two centuries. The daily rum ration finally came to an end on 31
July 1970, when the well-known call of “up spirits” could be
heard during last call for the Royal Navy.
[img
width=70]
HTML http://www.funny-emoticons.com/files/funny-animals/blue-bird-emoticons/801-listen-up!.png[/img]<br
/>All hands on deck:
One of the reasons for ending the rum ration was that the
Admiralty Board was concerned about the safety of its sailors,
especially due to the introduction of technologically-advanced
machinery and weaponry.
Back in 1740, concerned by the drunkenness of sailors who
received half a pint of rum per day, Admiral Edward Vernon
declared that the rum should be mixed with water.
In later years, sailors would check that their rum had not been
watered down. They would pour some on gunpowder and light it :o

-- a practice
believed to have led to the term “proof” being used to rate
liquor content.

Ron Wagner, USAF pilot in Presidential Wing at Andrews, airline
pilot, aero engineer
Updated Jul 28
I was an Eastern Air Lines pilot who mostly flew the
Washington-New York-Boston Shuttle.
On the way to bankruptcy they wanted to sell the famous Shuttle
to Trump. Those pilots could go to the new Trump Shuttle. It
seemed like my flying career would be saved by this visionary
billionaire.
THEN I MET HIM
He met with some of us. It wasn't one-on-one, but it was behind
closed doors, and in there he creeped me out. What that
visionary saw in us suddenly seemed to me to be like what a boa
constrictor sees when he spots prey in the jungle.
The beady eyes. The tiny mouth, which I could imagine being on
unhinged jaws like a boa, that could swallow us whole.
I declined, Eastern shut down, and I never flew professionally
again.
TWO YEARS TO BANKRUPTCY
The former Eastern employees who went were all friends. They got
spiffy new uniforms. The planes got spiffy new interiors and
Trump paint. He said he was “going to run the Shuttle like a
diamond, like an absolute diamond.” I'll always remember those
words shooting out of that little round mouth.
But within two years, that entire diamond was sunk, like Rose
dropping hers in the Atlantic at the end of Titanic.
Well, not quite the entire diamond: Trump took the only life
boat in the form of one Boeing 727 for his personal use. He also
kept something like $10–12 million personally.
Everyone else went to the bottom. [img

FIVE PRESIDENTS IS ENOUGH FOR ME
I had been a USAF pilot in the Presidential Wing at Andrews AFB
in DC. Before I met Trump I had met and flown five US
Presidents. It's been a little badge of honor my whole life to
be able to tell people that.
And now, when I meet people I could say I've met six US
Presidents.
But I still say five.

NIXON THREW HIMSELF UNDER THE BUS
I’m sticking with five, even though one of those five was Nixon!
I flew him on his first official trip after his two-year exile.
His eyes showed he was a beaten man. After that trip I always
had some respect for him because—yes he made some serious
mistakes—but when it came down to America or him, he took one
for Team America and disappeared.
In 21st Century jargon, “Nixon threw himself under the bus.”
Trump is gladly throwing all 320 million of us under the bus as
he boosts his ego and net worth. Well, not quite ALL 320
million. After all, there is that one percent of one percent
that will profit from the tax cuts he wants.

[center][font=times new roman]Inventing Saladin: The Role of the
Saladin Legend in European Culture and Identity[/font][/center]
OCTOBER 23, 2017 BY NATALIE ANDERSON
By Brian C. David
MA Thesis, James Madison University, 2017
Possible portrait of Saladin, from a manuscript copy of ‘Kitab
fi ma’arifat al-hiyal al-handisaya’, written and illustrated
A.D. 1354, Collection Freer Gallery of Art, Accession Number
F1932.19 (at Thesis link)
Abstract: This thesis seeks to uncover and understand the
strange historical journey of the Muslim Sultan Yusuf ibn Ayyub,
known to the West as Saladin. The historic Saladin was a ruler
famous for his successful campaigns against the Crusader Kingdom
of Jerusalem, his victory at the Battle of Hattin, and his
holding action against the Third Crusade. Upon Saladin’s death
in 1193, he became the subject of numerous legends, most of
which describe him as a merciful, chivalric, and ideal leader of
men. The epitome of what a thirteenth century European noble was
supposed to be.
This thesis seek to explain how these legends helped form
cultural identities, it will also show how the legends of
Saladin evolved over time, through a direct comparison between
the legend’s role in the thirteenth century and the twentieth
century.
Further, this thesis will show how these legends, rather than
being simple justifications for Saladin’s success and behavior,
are in fact a vehicle which historians and writers can use to
better understand English and French medieval culture, and how
those two cultural groups defined themselves as societies.
Despite vast cultural changes to England and France over those
seven hundred years, the legends would again be used to help
define the identity of those two nations.
Not only is this thesis trying to justify Saladin’s success and
behavior, these later legends are deeply intertwined with
justifications for imperialism and scientific racism. The
unpacking of these legends will not only help the reader to
better understand who Saladin truly was, but understand the
culture of Europe as well.
SNIPPET:
The historians to be analyzed, such as Lane-Poole and Gibb, were
heavily influenced not only by Scott, but by an imperialist
worldview as well. So if there is a link between modern
imperialism and romantic literature, what is imperialism?
Imperialism is defined as the extension of power and influence
that one entity exerts on another.[sup]232[/sup] Modern
imperialism, specifically deals with the domination of the world
by European nations during the nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries.
While this domination most obviously done through military
force, European imperialism employed multiple methods, from
economic to social controls, to dominate huge sections of the
world throughout the modern period. A major part of imperialism,
and where the legends of Saladin become important, is the
literature of imperialism. Literary imperialism is a grouping of
ideals, attributed to Europe in the nineteenth and twentieth
centuries that favor European conquest and domination of
non-European nations and peoples.[sup]233[/sup]
Specifically when talking about the history of modern
imperialism in the Middle East, one can clearly see this
domination as not just militarily and economically, but
culturally as well. British and French imperialist had little
respect for any of the cultures that dominated the Levant, and
did not believe them incapable of governing themselves.
Thus during the 1920s, they had the League of Nations create the
system of mandates, not only to draw up borders for the region,
but established imperialists powers to govern those territories
as well.[sup]234[/sup] This patronizing form of domination was
common, it was done in Africa and Southeast Asia as well, and
shows how little imperial governments viewed the native peoples
of the regions they dominated. It is in the writings of
imperialists that one finds the justification for this conquest
and domination, and this is the link between imperialism and
literature.[sup]235[/sup] This act of justification [img

/>does not necessarily have to be a conscious one; rather it is
the result of education and knowledge of the day reflected in
the writings of those who lived in the empire.
This truth about imperialism is what Phillip Curtin discussed in
his seminal work on the subject, Imperialism (1971): That
imperialism was the means by which Europeans justified the
empires they conquered through new industrialized technological
means. Britain and France, the subject of this thesis, had the
two largest empires during the zenith of modern imperialism, and
thus both benefited the most from such writings.

Agelbert NOTE: European culture has, as you will learn by
reading this thesis, a LONG history of pushing propaganda
justifying the brutal and murderous subjugation of people who
are not Europeans (that is, when said Europeans weren't busy
trying to pillage each other) by the deliberate wide
dissemination of lofty, high sounding rhetoric and clever claims
that they are "doing God's will".
Pro-imperialst propaganda goes way back. It was composed almost
exclusively of duplicitous double talk then, and continues to be
every bit as bigoted, mendacious and self serving today.
Captalism is the logical socially destructive product of the
imperialist world view in that, exactly like imperialsm, it
justifies plunder, abuse, cruel subjugation and murder for naked
self interest with lofty, high sounding baloney rhetoric about
'freedom' and 'liberty''. The difference is that, unlike under
Imperialism, under Capitalism the plundering of ANYBODY is
'justified' by greed. [img
