The slaughter of Palmyra's citizens: First images emerge from Syrian city over-run by ISIS...
WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT
Jihadis have entered 2,000-year-old ruins but no reports of destruction yet
Seized air base, spy HQ and claimed to have liberated hundreds prisoners
First time ISIS has claimed city directly from Syrian army and allied forces
Terror group now controls HALF of all territory in the war-torn country
Shocking images emerged today showing decapitated bodies strewn across blood-filled streets in Palmyra – victims of the Islamic State's unrelenting savagery as they stormed the ancient city.
The terror group have now seized full control of the historic settlement, putting the world heritage site and its priceless 2,000-year-old artefacts at risk of destruction.
The jihadis have also captured the military air base, intelligence headquarters and its notorious prison, where hundreds of inmates have reportedly been liberated.
British-based monitoring group, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), said ISIS now controlled half of all territory in the war-torn country.

Seized: Smoke rises over the ancient ruins of Palmyra as the Islamic State takes full control of the city after violent clashes with pro-government forces, the first time it has claimed a city from President Assad's regime
Butchered: Horrific images posted online show decapitated bodies strewn across a street, victims of the terror group's unrelenting savagery as they rampaged through the city
Jail break: This picture shared on several pro-ISIS Twitter account claims to show prisoners celebrating with their liberators after being freed from the notorious Tadmur prison by ISIS fighters in the city of Palmyra
Pro-government forces beat a hasty retreat late last night after 100 fighters were slaughtered in violent clashes in just a few hours.
It is the first time ISIS has claimed a city directly from the Syrian army and allied forces, which have already lost ground in the northwest and south to other insurgent groups in recent weeks.
Beibares Tellawi, an activist in Homs province, said the militants had reached Tadmur prison, where thousands of Syrian dissidents have been imprisoned and tortured over the years.
The fate of the prisoners was not immediately known, although pro-ISIS Twitter accounts shared a image claiming to show inmates celebrating with militants after being set free.
The jihadis have also seized control of the Jazl oil field in the Homs countryside.
Government war planes responded by carrying out air strikes on ISIS positions in the city.
Rami Abdulrahman, the head of SOHR, who bases his information on a network of sources on the ground, said there were so far no reports of destruction of the city's historic artefacts.
The city is home to a UNESCO World Heritage site, including ancient temples and colonnaded streets, which previously attracted thousands of tourists.

Driven out: Pro-government forces have withdrawn after 100 fighters were killed in clashes overnight
Syrian state TV said pro-government forces managed to secure safe exit for most of the civilian population
Syria's antiquities chief said previously the insurgents would destroy ancient ruins if they took control of it.
He said the group was in control of a hospital in the city which Syrian forces had used as a base before withdrawing.
'The situation is very bad,' Syria's antiquities chief, Mamoun Abdulkarim, said after ISIS captured a northern section of the city earlier in the day.
'If only five members of ISIS go into the ancient buildings, they'll destroy everything,' he added, calling for international action to save the city.
Syrian state TV reported that pro-government forces had managed to secure safe exit for most of the civilian population.
The jihadists sparked international outrage this year when they blew up the ancient Assyrian city of Nimrud and smashed artefacts in the museum of Mosul, both in Iraq.

Under threat: Hundreds of statues and artefacts from Palmyra's museum have been transferred out of the city
Hundreds of statues and artefacts from Palmyra's museum have been transferred out of the city, according to Abdulkarim, but many others – including massive tombs – could not be moved.
News of Palmyra's fall came after a State Department official said the weekend loss of Ramadi had prompted the U.S take an 'extremely hard look' at its strategy to confront the extremists.
The fall of Ramadi, their most significant victory since mid-2014 when they conquered swathes of land, sparked a US-led air campaign to support Baghdad.
On Wednesday, the Anbar police chief was dismissed, after video footage emerged online suggesting security personnel deserted their posts at the height of the ISIS offensive.

Greece Warns of Possible Default on June 5th; Moody’s Warns of a ''Deposit Freeze''
By Michael Snyder
The Greek government says that a “moment of truth” is coming on June 5th. Either their lenders agree to give them more money by that date, or Greece will default on a 300 million euro loan payment to the IMF.
Of course it won’t technically be a “default” according to IMF rules for another 30 days after that, but without a doubt news that Greece cannot pay will send shockwaves throughout the financial world. At that point, those holding Greek bonds will start to panic as they realize that they might not get paid as well.
All over Europe, there are major banks that are holding large amounts of Greek debt and derivatives that are related to the performance of Greek debt. If something is not done to avert disaster at the last moment, a default by Greece could be the spark that sets off a major European financial crisis this summer.
As I discussed the other day, neither the EU nor the IMF have given any money to Greece since August 2014. So now the Greek government is just about out of money, and without any new loans they will not be able to pay back the old loans that are coming due. In fact, things are so bad at this point that the Greek government is openly warning that it will default on June 5th…
Greece cannot make an upcoming payment to the International Monetary Fund on June 5 unless foreign lenders disburse more aid, a senior ruling party lawmaker said on Wednesday, the latest warning from Athens it is on the verge of default.
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras’s leftist government says it hopes to reach a cash-for-reforms deal in days, although European Union and IMF lenders are more pessimistic and say talks are moving too slowly for that.
Of course this is all part of a very high stakes chess game. The Greeks believe that the Germans will back down when faced with the prospect of a full blown European financial crisis, and the Germans believe that the Greeks will eventually be feeling so much pain that they will be forced to give in to their demands.
So with each day we get closer and closer to the edge, and the Greeks are trying to do their best to let everyone know that they are not bluffing. Just today, a spokesperson for the Greek government came out and declared that unless there is a deal by June 5th, the IMF “won’t get any money”…
Greek officials now point to a race against the clock to clinch a deal before payments totaling about 1.5 billion euros ($1.7 billion) to the IMF come due next month, starting with a 300 million euro payment on June 5.
“Now is the moment that negotiations are coming to a head. Now is the moment of truth, on June 5,” Nikos Filis, spokesman for the ruling Syriza party’s lawmakers, told ANT1 television.
“If there is no deal by then that will address the current funding problem, they won’t get any money,” he said.But the Germans know that the Greeks desperately need more money and can’t last much longer. The Greek banking system is so close to collapse that Moody’s just downgraded it again and warned that “there is a high likelihood of an imposition of capital controls and a deposit freeze” in the months ahead…
The outlook for the Greek banking system is negative, primarily reflecting the acute deterioration in Greek banks’ funding and liquidity, says Moody’s Investors Service in a new report published recently. These pressures are unlikely to ease over the next 12-18 months and there is a high likelihood of an imposition of capital controls and a deposit freeze.
The new report: “Banking System Outlook: Greece”, is now available on www.moodys.com. Moody’s subscribers can access this report via the link provided at the end of this press release.
Moody’s notes that significant deposit outflows of more than €30 billion since December 2014 have increased banks’ dependence on central bank funding. In our view, the banks are likely to remain highly dependent on central bank funding, as ongoing uncertainty regarding Greece’s support programme continues to compromise depositors’ confidence.Unfortunately, when things really start going crazy in Greece people might be faced with much more than just frozen bank accounts. As I wrote about just a few days ago, there is a very strong possibility that we could actually see Cyprus-style wealth confiscation implemented in Greece when the banks collapse.
In fact, the Greek government is already talking about the possibility of a special tax on banking transactions…
Athens is promoting the idea of a special levy on banking transactions at a rate of 0.1-0.2 percent, while the government’s proposal for a two-tier value-added tax – depending on whether the payment is in cash or by card – has met with strong opposition from the country’s creditors.
A senior government official told Kathimerini that among the proposals discussed with the eurozone and the International Monetary Fund is the imposition of a levy on bank transactions, whose exact rate will depend on the exemptions that would apply. The aim is to collect 300-600 million euros on a yearly basis.
Fee won’t include ATM withdrawals, transactions up to EU500; in this case Greek govt projects EU300m-EU600m annual revenue from measure.Sadly, most people living in North America (which is most of my audience) does not really care much about what happens on the other side of the world.
But they should care.
If Greece defaults and the Greek banking system collapses, stocks and bonds will crash all over Europe. Many believe that such a crash can be “contained” to just Europe, but that is really just wishful thinking.
In addition, the euro would plummet dramatically, which would cause substantial financial problems all over the planet. As I recently explained, the euro is headed to parity with the U.S. dollar and then it is going to go below parity. Before it is all said and done, the euro is going to all-time lows.
Of course the U.S. dollar is eventually going to totally collapse as well, but that comes later and that is a story for another day.
According to the Bank for International Settlements, 74 trillion dollars in derivatives are directly tied to the value of the euro, the value of the U.S. dollar and the value of other global currencies.
So if you believe that what is happening in Greece cannot have massive ramifications for the entire global financial system, you are dead wrong.
What is happening in Greece is exceedingly important, and it is time for all of us to start paying attention.

Jade Helm Personnel Are Terrorizing Small Texas Communities
Below, are charts which will demonstrate that the American economy, and that of the world, is teetering on collapse. Martial law activities are increasing in size and intensity in preparation for the collapse. Communities, such as Big Springs, TX., are being terrorized by presumed Jade Helm personnel practicing their “stealth” intrusions as previously discussed in several articles.
After covering the Jade Helm fiasco for nearly two months, it is clear that as the economy falls, the threats posed by Jade Helm activities (i.e. political dissident extractions) will increase in a corresponding manner.
ECONOMIC FREE FALL
Not since the Great Depression has America witnessed a retail business free fall like the one we are witnessing today. The catastrophic economic conditions are eating through the final firewalls of protection. The collapse has already happened, the manifestation of this collapse could occur at any time. You could awaken tomorrow and find that your life savings is gone. Do you now understand why the courts have ruled that banks own your money when you deposit it? Isn’t it now painfully clear why your banking officials and UK banking officials practiced for a banking disaster on November 10, 2014?
The figures below demonstrate that a retail collapse is underway. This collapse will not occur in isolation. When the Targets go away, so will the banks who underwrite their operations. The truckers supporting these retailers will disappear as well. The lack of trucking resources and the inability to fund shipping on a large scale will lead to massive food shortages. Massive food shortages always degenerate into civil unrest. Civil unrest, on a national scale, requires military intervention. And this is where Jade Helm enters the picture. As the economy falls, the need for Jade Helm martial law enforcement will rise.

One look at the following S&P 500 chart from Bloomberg and it is very difficult to conclude anything except the bottom has fallen out of the economy and we are waiting for nature to take its course and collapse the entire economy. Hope and change has finally reached its final objective. The American economic system is finished.
The Baltic Dry Index
Universally, the Baltic Dry Index (BDI) is considered to be the most accurate economic indicator of national and world economic health. The Baltic Dry Index has officially hit rock bottom with unprecedented lows. Readers may recall that the BDI was crashing in the first quarter of this year.
The forces behind the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) effectively used their influence to greatly stall the delivery of critically important commodities until the TPP is fully implemented among its member nations. From November of 2014 to March of 2015, the BDI indicated that the U.S. and the world, as a whole, was on the verge of an economic collapse. We were, indeed, days away from a full-blown collapse when product finally moved through the ports. This release of goods, prevented an immediate collapse, but these events did permanent and irreversible damage to the economy. The dominoes of these events are falling and it is showing in S&P 500 (pictured above) and in the continued crash of the BDI. Please view the charts which shows the collapse of the BDI. Then watch the video that implicates the forces behind the TPP as the perpetrators of this crisis.
The Baltic Dry Index stays mired in the lowest economic numbers in history.
Save what you can because the economy is breathing its last few breaths.
The Following People Must Be Crazy According to Fox and Friends
As we assess where the economy is going, which is in the proverbial toilet, it is important to realize that when the economic effects are finally realized in their complete totality, we will undoubtedly see martial law troops in the street. Now, there is some evidence that extraction drills are becoming more real than the Jade Helm apologists at Fox and “Friends”, NPR and KHOU TV (Houston) would have the public believe.
Take a look at the following two emails sent to me. These are typical of the endless stream of emails I am receiving everyday.
___
DaveOn May 14, 2015, at approximately 6:00pm, my four dogs began barking in a loud and angry fashion. I stepped onto my front porch and saw two men about to enter my property through my yard gate. I ordered them to stop and asked who they were? They replied that they were from the electric company and they needed to talk to me because my contract was about to expire. My contract with TXU expires on May 1, 2016. I asked what electric company and they said something that sounded like “real” electric company. I ordered them to leave immediately and after some hesitation, they began walking down my 50 yard long driveway.Here are the incident facts:2 men in their mid to late 20’s that were in excellent shape.They did not drive a vehicle down my driveway, they walked.They were wearing navy blue shorts, a white pullover shirt with blue stripes and some sort of navy blue patch.It was at 6:00pm.One man was African American the other Mexican or Middle Eastern.They carried no paperwork or briefcase. They had nothing.I live near Big Spring Texas and I know that the NSA is aware of my disgust with this president and government. My phone calls have been interrupted on several occasions by the NSA.After they started walking away I went in and got my camera but when I went to my driveway they were gone.I called my power company and they said they would never send anybody out unless it was prearranged.When I ordered them to leave, the Mexican pointed his finger at me and mumbled something.So, you have two men in their 20’s in excellent shape arriving on foot to my property at 6:00pm to “discuss” my electric contract, wearing a clown like uniform, not driving a company vehicle, no tools, paper or briefcase, and disappearing almost immediately.I grew up on Air Force bases until age 19. I spent 21 years working for the US Department of Justice, I saw Jade Helm agents all over them. It was so obvious that a blind man wouldn’t miss it. They were part of the undercover section of this martial law take over.My assessment is that they came to determine what they would need to take me down. It became obvious to them that I will not go quietly or at all. I have let some people know that if I disappear or die in an accident, the government is responsible.____Dear Dave Hodges,Thanks for all that you do. I pray for the safety of you and your family. I am a widow and on May 13the about 5pm, I caught three men snooping around my property. I live in the Big Springs, Texas area and these kinds of sightings are common place. I might be old (68 yo), but I know how to shoot about every gun that has ever been made. I went outside with a shotgun and confronted these Jade Helmers. They were dressed the same in white t-shirt and blue shorts. The reminded me of circus clowns. I asked them what they were doing and they said they were from my power company and they looking for a gas leak. I told them they have 5 seconds to make it to their car or I was going to defend my home. They laughed at me but left. I called the sheriff and they told me on the phone that these men were from the government and that I should not be pulling guns on them. How did they know I had a gun because I did not tell them. Our deputies must be working with these trespassers. Dave, we are being invaded and I swear I will shoot them if they come back…
______
Do you think this is a fabrication or these people are lunatics as much of the lame stream media are saying? Then, you should take a look at this screen shot from Channel 9 in Big Springs, TX.
Viewers of this news report were encouraged to report anything unusual to the authorities. Jade Helm Special Forces are testing their infiltration techniques.
The first email author has left me his name and phone number. I am arranging a cameo appearance on my show so that he can better tell his story. I am withholding his name for the time being because I do not want the forces of intimidation to stop the interview from happening.
Now, are these two Big Springs, Texas area residents crazy, or are they seeing what is part of Jade Helm?
See Something, Say Something
A Houston Chronicle report stated that Jade Helm soldiers will blend in with the local populations in an effort to test the effectiveness of infiltration techniques. Residents will be encouraged and commanded to report anything they deem suspicious, to the authorities, during the Jade Helm drill.
This is why America is frightened. This is why we need to push back now. The more noise we make the better chance we have of stopping Jade Helm. Also, whenever you see a “tin foil hat” report about Jade Helm, you should contact that station/network and tell them why you will never watch them again. Start with Fox and Friends, they are the champions of the “giggle factor”.

ON THE PATH OF THE IMMORTALS PART No12: As Above, So Below… Or It Soon WILL Be
The circular tracks at CERN create enormous amounts of energy as the particles collide, and some researchers fear that this energy, plus the torsion fields that arise from the electromagnetic interactions—coupled with the notion of dark matter, which is theorized as a massive, unseen web that connects all the universe—may combine to form the god-gate that is called the key to opening the Abyss.
The description of the entities rising up from the Abyss in Revelation 9 states that they will rise “like smoke from a great furnace.” This is not a picture of smoke gently rising from a fire, but dense, black smoke as it is belched from a massive conflagration. This smoke is so dense that it covers up the sun! The momentum requires an “engine” to propel it upwards, and a torsion field may aid in that endeavor. As this occurs, the four angels bound in the Euphrates are loosed (Revelation 9:13), and these four lead a hybrid army of two hundred million, given the power to kill a THIRD of mankind!
Order out of chaos, the dance of Shiva, the overturning of an old order replaced by a new one—intended by the spiritual enemy of mankind, the destroyer Apollyon, to preempt Christ’s millennial reign and forever hold back the TRUE KING’s return. This is what the initiates of the mystery religions, the scientists and politicians who trust in rituals and “knowledge” as god rather than God Almighty—this is their ultimate plan. It is no coincidence that CERN was established at almost the exact same time as the Bilderberg group.
The tracks for the ATLAS ring at CERN have an occult signature built within their design: they are octagonal. The occult “cross” has eight points. The primary cross represents the four corners of the “clock,” also called the “cardinal points.” These are the vernal equinox, summer solstice, autumnal equinox, and the winter solstice. Within the heavens (the constellations that encircle the earth that God told us would serve as signs and seasons), and according to Michael S. Heiser, these primary directions correspond to the faces of the cherubim. In part 2 of Dr. Heiser’s essay on Ezekiel’s vision, he quotes the work of Bible scholar Dan Block:
Speaking of the vision of ch. 1, Dan Block, in his massive two volume commentary on the text of Ezekiel makes the following observation: “Since the inaugural vision came to the prophet from the north, the frontal view (south) would have had a human face, with the other three being arranged as follows”: [this text is based on Heiser’s graphic] North (Eagle/Phoenix), East (Ox/Taurus), South (Human/Sagittarius), West (Lion/Leo).
Block adds, “If the faces in 10:14 are also listed in clockwise order, the sequence is identical, and the cherub is identified with the bull.” Other scholars (like Leslie Allen in the Word Biblical Commentary, vol. 1, of Ezekiel) note that the four faces suggest the four directions, or the cardinal points. He’s right—and what’s more, the faces of the creatures (cherubim) correspond to the four cardinal points of the zodiac. Scholars of ancient astronomy will tell you that the zodiac has a Babylonian derivation—which is precisely where Ezekiel is living and writing from.[i]
These four points are represented in the main cross of the occult octagon. The second set of four are cross-quarter points, representing Imbolc, Beltane, Lammas, and Samhain. While the first four are reflected in God’s creation of both the cherubim’s faces and the constellations, this second set of four is not—these are occult festivals that celebrate fallen angels and gods. Imbolc celebrates Diana, Brigid, and other fertility goddesses. Beltane, also known as Walpurgisnacht, is a lustful time of chaos and fertility rites, celebrated on May Day. Lammas is a festival of harvest, meaning “loaf mass,” and it actually corresponds neatly with Thanksgiving. Samhain celebrates all demons and evil spirits, and we reenact a watered-down version of the ancient rites during Halloween.
But aside from pagan celebrations, the octagonal shape is revered by secret societies. The eight-sided star is sometimes called the Chaos Star (I-Ching), Ishtar’s Star, the Dharmacakra, the 8 of Wands in Aleister Crowley’s Thoth Tarot Card deck, and it is even pictured representing the sun in the Piazza San Pietro in the Vatican. The Masonic Chaos Star is shown within an Ouroboros Circle (a snake that is eating its tail is called an ouroboros, and it sometimes represents Leviathan) that includes a crown over the head of the snake! Chaos stars can also be discerned with the “semiotic” (hidden meaning) logos of the CIA, the ancient flag of Chaldea, the Annapolis Middle East Peace Conference—but this star is sometimes hidden within a many-pointed star known as the “black sun.” The black sun is particularly pertinent to this essay, because it also represents a black hole, but can also represent what Helena Blavatsky of the Theosophy Society claimed was a burned-out sun that had been defeated by Sol.
The octagon is a revered form, and the number eight appears in Freemasonic architecture. David Bay of Cutting Edge Ministries, when noting that the Washington Monument has eight windows, says this:
And, also remember the importance of the Number 8 in Occultic Numerology, for it carries the meaning of “New Beginnings.” Combined with the meaning of Number 13, as “Extreme Rebellion,” you get the total message that this “New Beginning”(New World Order) is to be carried out in “Extreme Rebellion.”[ii]
When President Gerald Ford’s coffin was brought in to the funeral service, it was placed upon an octagonal base. The logo for the Dharma Initiative in the television series LOSTis an eight-sided “chaos star.” The Dharma Initiative had set up a series of bunkers on the mysterious island to study the many anomalies there, especially the ability of the island to contort time and space. The reimagined Battlestar Galactica science-fiction series used octagons for many shapes within the ship, including all books and documents. The Templar cross is in fact an octagon, perhaps referring to the Chaos Star, but many believe it is a reflection of the “craft” related to Templars, that of Freemasonry. Much of the higher degrees use Moorish architecture and names; are these imitating the octagonal construction of the interior of the Dome of the Rock, which many say sits upon Mount Moriah?
The final series of collisions for the “first run” at CERN ran from December 17–December 21, 2012, the very date when the Mayan calendar rolled over and supposedly opened a mystical portal in heaven and inside earth, marking the end of an era and the beginning of a new and final age of man (and, as documented in the book Zenith 2016, this is the same date predicted by numerous ancient societies as well as turn-of-the-century preachers who believed the Antichrist and False Prophet would arrive on earth between 2012–2016 and thereafter make themselves known to the world). Following that run, the LHC shut down until this year, when the scientists at CERN plan to run collisions at much higher energy levels. The ATLAS ring, one of seven detector experiments with the forced acronym that we’re told means “A Toroidal LHC Apparatus” (“toroidal” refers to a donut-shaped object, like a whirlwind), may actually be a “nudge, nudge, wink, wink” reference to Atlas, the god who was sentenced to forever hold the heavens on his shoulders. Atlas was a Titan who sided with the losers in the Titanomachy, the battle for dominance between the Titans and the Olympians. His punishment is often listed as carrying the heavens, but in fact he was commanded to hold up Uranus, the “heavens or sky,” so that he could never again mate with Gaia, the earth mother. Using ATLAS to open a portal so that fallen angels could once again mate with human females and torment mankind is a MAJOR nudge and wink to the Illuminati.
The 7000-ton ATLAS detector is probing for unknown realities from a cavern 100 meters below the ancient home of Apollo / Apolliacum.
ATLAS is composed of eight-sided sections that look very much like the pagan Wheel of Time and the Chaos Star. Is there something about this configuration that has power in the spiritual realm? The Jewish Kabbalah sees the number eight as one step beyond perfection, where seven is the number of perfection and completion:
Eight, on the other hand, is symbolic of an entity that is one step above the natural order, higher than nature and its limitations. That’s why Chanukah is eight days long—the greatly outnumbered Maccabees’ resolve to battle the Greeks wasn’t logical or natural. They drew on reservoirs of faith and courage that are not part of normative human nature. They therefore merited a miracle higher than nature—a miracle that lasted eight days—and to commemorate this, we light on Chanukah an eight-branched menorah. In a similar vein, we circumcise our children when they are eight-day old babies, because the brit milah symbolizes our nation’s supernatural and logic-defying covenant with God.[iii]
In this light, the Messiah’s number is often listed as eight, but when referring to the opening of the Abyss, this would be the anti-Messiah, Apollyon! I’ve mentioned “semiotics,” (the art of hiding meaning within symbols), and the NASA space program is rife with them. Apollo 8 was originally supposed to be the Apollo 9 Mission, but when the lunar lander failed to be ready for low-earth orbit, it was decided that NASA would send up the team that was ready and call it Apollo 8. The three astronauts, Frank Borman (a Freemason), James Lovell, and William Anders were catapulted into space on December 21 (there’s that mystical date again), 1968—the winter solstice, when CERNunnos, the god of the Celts, is celebrated by his followers.
But there is another, little known component of CERN that dovetails neatly with God’s prophecies about the coming beast system. The amount of data being produced by the collider experiments is monumental in size and scope. More than fifteen petabytes of data are produced, stored, and analyzed every year, and that amount will grow exponentially as the LHC begins operating at higher energy levels throughout this year. How can one location handle all this information? It can’t. In 2002, visionaries from CERN created the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG):
The Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) is a global computing infrastructure whose mission is to provide computing resources to store, distribute and analyse the data generated by the Large Hadron Collider(LHC), making the data equally available to all partners, regardless of their physical location.
WLCG is the world’s largest computing grid. It is supported by many associated national and international grids across the world, such as European Grid Initiative (Europe-based) and Open Science Grid (US-based), as well as many other regional grids.
WLCG is coordinated by CERN. It is managed and operated by a worldwide collaboration between the experiments (ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb) and the participating computer centres. It is reviewed by a board of delegates from partner country funding agencies, and scientifically reviewed by the LHC Experiments Committee.[iv]
Forty countries. One hundred seventy million computing centers. Two million jobs run every day.[v]
The grid was used to announce the discovery of the Higgs Boson on July 4, 2012. The grid is humming all around us—moment by moment, second by second—communicating with data produced by the rings of Saturn. Yes, I said Saturn. In a very real way, this can be said because Saturn is yet another name for the Destroyer, Abaddon, Apollyon, Nimrod, Osiris, Shiva, Dionysus, and CERNunnos. And Saturn is to play a very important role, according to the prophecy of Apollo/Nimrod’s ancient and most powerful Sibyl (the Cumaean, also known as Amalthaea), who predicts the return of the god Apollo on the Great Seal of the United States. As the oldest of the Sibyls and the seer of that underworld, Apollyon opens in the end-times, she prophesied Apollo would return to earth through mystical “life” given to him from the gods when the deity Saturn (Satan?) returns to reign over the earth in a new pagan golden age.
From the beginning of the Novus Ordo Seclorum prophecy, we read:
Now the last age by Cumae’s Sibyl sung Has come and gone, and the majestic roll Of circling centuries begins anew: Justice returns, returns old Saturn’s reign, With a new breed of men sent down from heaven. Only do thou, at the boy’s birth in whom The iron shall cease, the golden race arise, Befriend him, chaste Lucina; ’tis thine own Apollo reigns.
He shall receive the life of gods, and see Heroes with gods commingling, and himself Be seen of them, and with his father’s worth Reign o’er a world.…
Assume thy greatness, for the time draws nigh, Dear child of gods, great progeny of Jove [Jupiter/Zeus]! See how it totters—the world’s orbed might, Earth, and wide ocean, and the vault profound, All, see, enraptured of the coming time
The Cumaean Sibyl, who, in the Aeneid, gave Aeneas a tour of the infernal region is also honored by the Vatican as a “vessel of truth” on their altars and illustrated books and even upon the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, where five Sibyls including the Delphic (like the one Paul cast a demon out of in the New Testament) join the Old Testament prophets in places of sacred honor.

TOM HORN & DEREK GILBERT EXPLAIN WHAT IS STARTING RIGHT NOW FOR A LIMITED TIME!
Will the power of Saturn’s rings and Apollo’s (Apollyon’s) coming join the dancing image of Shiva, which at CERN has a mighty ring behind his back as if he uses this magic circle (a chaos star?) to initiate the ultimate death and rebirth cycle? Rings as in a torsion field or a whirlwind? Rings as in a vortex, a time tunnel, a gateway to another dimension? The grid may be thought of as the brain for this mighty machine as it commands and collates—transmits and receives. And it reverberates across the globe, courtesy of the connected computers in forty countries! CERN and its rings lie at the heart of a massive data cloud that may soon drive a mighty smoke column that will block out the sun and even attempt to block out the SON.
Even Google Earth seems to know what is coming. A few days ago SkyWatch TV science editor Sharon Gilbert discovered that, by typing in “Antichrist” the global search engine will hover over CERN. More intriguing, when typing in “I, Petgoat II” (an occult film that presents an apocalyptic scenario in which all world religions merge under a central universal messiah that looks like Jesus (yet features the all seeing eye on his forehead) in which the sorcerer controls the world through finance and idea concordant with prophecy, “so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name”) in also takes one to CERN
