Radiation levels near Japan's damaged Fukushima reactor hit two-year high

Radiation levels in seawater just outside one of the damaged Fukushima reactors spiked this week to the highest level in two years, the operator of the crippled Japanese nuclear plant said on Thursday.

Radiation levels on Wednesday, the day six workers were exposed to highly radioactive water, jumped 13 times the previous day's reading, the highest levels since late 2011.

A massive quake and tsunami hit the power station, operated by Tokyo Electric Power Co, also known as Tepco, in March 2011, causing three reactor meltdowns and hydrogen explosions.

Tepco, which is pouring hundreds of tonnes of water to keep reactors cool, has struggled to contain the build up of radioactive water at the plant.

In the latest incident, a worker on Wednesday mistakenly detached a pipe connected to a treatment system, releasing seven tonnes of highly radioactive water.

The accidents at the Fukushima Daiichi plant, 220 km (130 miles) north of Tokyo, are adding to the crisis and stirring doubt over Tepco's abilities to carry out a complex cleanup widely expected to take decades.

Tepco said combined Cesium-134 and Cesium-137 readings just outside the damaged No. 2 reactor spiked to 1,200 becquerels per litre on Wednesday, more than 13 times the level on Tuesday.

Cesium-134 readings were 370 becquerels per litre while Cesium-137 was 830/litre within a silt fence right outside the reactor building. Regulatory limits for Cesium, which emits a strong gamma radiation and is harmful to the human body, is 90 bq/litre for Cesium-137 and 60 bq/litre for Cesium-134.

A Tepco spokesman said the sudden spike in radiation was caused by construction work near the No. 2 building.

Workers are injecting chemicals to harden the ground on the seaside of the Fukushima reactor buildings to prevent contaminated water from flowing out to the ocean. The pressure from pumping chemicals into the ground pushed some contaminated soil out into the port area, the spokesman said.

Tepco also said Cesium-137 readings just outside the silt fence next to the No.2 reactor rose to 160 bq/litre, also above the regulatory limit and almost double the previous day's level.

The readings were taken right next to the Fukushima plant but hundreds of meters from the port entrance that connects to the Pacific Ocean.

Radiation from water leaking from the facility is mostly confined to the harbour around the plant, officials have said.

Last week, Tepco said 430 litres (113 gallons) of contaminated water had spilled out of a storage tank at Fukushima and probably flowed to the ocean.

Cesium readings further out in the Pacific Ocean remain non-detectable and officials say there is no environmental threat to other countries as radiation will be diluted by the sea.

In September, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe promised the International Olympic Committee that radioactive water problems at Fukushima were "under control" and any contamination is limited to the harbour next to the Fukushima plant.

Japan's Nuclear Regulation Authority last week ordered Tepco to draft in additional workers and report within a week on its measures to tackle the hazardous clean-up.

Economy 2013 Total US DOLLAR COLLAPSE

Almost 34,000 Government Workers Apply for Unemployment

Nearly 34,000 federal workers applied for unemployment benefits in the first week of the shutdown, according to government agencies.

A total of 16,078 furloughed workers in Maryland have applied for unemployment as of Sunday night, according to the Maryland Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation. The agency only receives 3,000 claims from federal workers all year on average.

Washington, D.C., has also seen a “surge” in claims, as 9,000 federal government employees applied for benefits in the shutdown’s first three days. The total surpassed 10,000 by Monday.

Unemployment claims in northern Virginia jumped by 3,500, according to the Virginia Employment Commission (VEC) office in Alexandria, which serves Arlington, Fairfax, and Falls Church.

Joyce Fogg, a spokesperson for the Alexandria office, told the Washington Free Beacon that 959 federal workers were among those who applied between Oct. 1 and Oct. 7. The 3,500-increase in claims also likely represents government contractors who have been affected by the shutdown, she said.

Checks will start going out on Oct. 14, at a maximum of $378 a week.

6,559 federal workers in Pennsylvania applied for unemployment between Oct. 1 and Oct. 8, according to the state’s Department of Labor.

Even West Virginia is seeing an effect, with 268 federal workers filing claims as of Monday. The state warns, “due to the high volume of federal unemployment claims being taken, there may be a delay in the entry of your new claim.”

33,864 federal employees in all sought unemployment during the first week the government was closed.

If Congress passes legislation to pay furloughed workers retroactively, those who receive unemployment benefits will be required to pay them back. The House unanimously passed a bill on Saturday to ensure that federal employees will receive back pay, though the Senate has yet to vote on the measure.

Most of the states have a one-week waiting period before benefits can be approved, and in Virginia a person must be unemployed for at least two weeks before being considered.

Each state and the District of Columbia display shutdown disclaimers on their websites, advertising the availability of unemployment to furloughed workers.

Some 800,000 “nonessential” federal employees have been out of work since the government shut down at midnight on Oct. 1.

Government workers have enjoyed a significantly lower unemployment rate than the rest of the nation in recent years, with a 4.6 percent rate as of August, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Historic blizzard that killed tens of thousands of South Dakota cattle

An unusually early and enormous snowstorm over the weekend caught South Dakota ranchers and farmers unprepared, killing tens of thousands of cattle and ravaging the state's $7 billion industry — an industry left without assistance because of the federal government shutdown.

As many as 75,000 cattle have perished since the storm slammed the western part of the state Thursday through Saturday with snowfall that set records for the entire month of October in just three days, state and industry officials said.

Across the state, snow totals averaged 30 inches, with some isolated areas recording almost 5 feet,The Weather Channel reported.

The South Dakota Stock Growers Association estimated that 15 percent to 20 percent of all cattle were killed in some parts of the state. Some ranchers reported that they lost half or more of their herds.

The storm was accompanied by hurricane-force wind gusts, especially Friday night, which drove some herds seeking shelter miles from their ranches. A trail of carcasses left a gruesome sight, said Martha Wierzbicki, emergency management director for Butte County, in the northwestern corner of the state.

Parts of South Dakota are in cleanup mode after a strong winter storm pounded some areas. Kirsten Swanson of NBC station KNBN reports.

"They're in the fence line, laying alongside the roads," Wierzbicki told The Rapid City Journal. "It's really sickening."

Ranchers have no one to ask for help or reimbursement. That's because Congress has yet to pass a new farm bill, which subsidizes agricultural producers.

And even if there were a farm bill, the government shutdown means nothing could be done under one anyway.

State Agriculture Secretary Lucas Lentsch called the early-season blizzard "devastating to our producers," saying his agency was trying to figure out a response.

In the meantime, he said, the best farmers and ranchers can do is meticulously document their losses, with detailed photos, for use when and if claims can be processed.

The most immediate concern is proper disposal of the dead livestock, which state law says must be burned, buried or rendered within 36 hours — for the health not only of surviving herds but also for people.

"That can be a significant source of disease spread, so we want to make sure those carcasses are burned, buried or rendered as quickly as possible," Dustin Oedekoven, South Dakota's state veterinarian, told the Journal.

But the South Dakota Cattlemen's Association warned that the effects would be felt for years afterward. Not only were tens of thousands of calves killed, but so were thousands more cows that would have delivered calves next year.

And the stress of the storm will leave its mark on surviving herds, the South Dakota State University Agricultural Extension Service said, leaving the remaining cattle vulnerable to ruinous diseases with names like infectious bovine rhinotracheitis, bovine respiratory syncytial virus and bovine viral diarrhea virus.

Most of the diseases have incubation periods of a week or two, so those problems can't yet be assessed, the extension said.

"This is absolutely, totally devastating," Steve Schell, a rancher in Caputa, near Mount Rushmore, told the Rapid City newspaper. "This is horrendous. I mean the death loss of these cows in this county is unbelievable."

America is No More a Safe Haven

Some have written to make note of the fact that we are now in the fourth quarter of the year. In sharing this they were referencing an earlier writing I posted that made mention of a Super Bowl advertisement that could include a cryptic message.




You can find the original article at the following link:

http://parablesblog.blogspot.com/2013/02/fourth-quarter-2013.html

Yahweh has not given me any word of revelation about immediately impending events, but I continue to remain watchful and alert. Those who have followed my writings for some time may be aware that I have been declaring that judgment is coming to America since as far back as 2001 when the World Trade Center was struck. I have actually been quite surprised that the collapse of American society into anarchy, civil unrest, and the resulting martial law, has tarried as long as it has. America’s vaunted economy, tied to the debt-eroded dollar, must certainly collapse. Yet it has been propped up by the manipulations of a fiat money system, and world bankers who are continually looting the middle class through the hidden theft of monetary inflation.

The country surely will collapse, for the Spirit has signified this to be so in many ways. The testimonies are abundant. I could cite dozens of blog posts that have examined various parables in the news that foretell of that which is coming. At times I have felt like the prophet Jeremiah. For years Yahweh sent him forth with a message of the coming collapse and subjugation of Judah and Jerusalem. Despite being labeled as a prophet of woe and doom, and derided by the majority of the people, Yahweh continued to speak forth warnings year after year through this faithful prophet. After nearly two decades of speaking forth the messages that Yahweh had commanded him to deliver, Jeremiah was fatigued, weary, and felt that in some measure that Yahweh had deceived him by tarrying to fulfill the announced judgments. Yet the judgments did come, and not one word of the Lord fell to the ground.

I have reflected on this recently as even nature seems to have been paralleling this pattern. Expected storms have not materialized, leaving meteorologists and scientists baffled. Last month The Weather Channel posted an article and video about the unexpected late development of any hurricanes in the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico. Following is a quote from an article on The Weather Channel.

It took until 5 a.m. on Sept. 11 for the first hurricane of the 2013 Atlantic hurricane season to form.

Humberto's intensification into a hurricane fell just three hours short of the record for the latest-forming Atlantic basin hurricane in the satellite era.
[Source: http://www.weather.com/news/weather-hurricanes/no-atlantic-hurricanes-through-august-20130821]

It seems significant that the first hurricane of 2013 formed on 9-11, the number for emergency calls in America. The hurricane formed at 5 a.m., five being the number of grace. The message seems to be that Yahweh has caused His judgments to tarry, providing a time of grace for His people to prepare themselves.

A similar story has occurred as one watches the solar sun-spot cycles. The Sun goes through what are termed as “solar minimums” and “solar maximums,” which are terms used to describe sun-spot activity. The Sun cycles last 11 years, and it was widely anticipated that this present sun-spot cycle would produce an unusually active solar maximum. We are in what should be near the peak of sun-spot activity right now. Yet, remarkably, the sun has been so quiet that it has resembled the level of activity seen during a solar minimum.




Graphic above shows that sunspot activity is much lower than previous cycles.

Though the sun is currently in the peak year of its 11-year solar weather cycle, our closest star has been rather quiet over all, scientists say.

This year's solar maximum is shaping up to be the weakest in 100 years... scientists said Thursday (July 11).

"It's the smallest maximum we've seen in the Space Age," David Hathaway of NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., told reporters in a teleconference.
[Source: http://www.space.com/21937-sun-solar-weather-peak-is-weak.html]

Thus we see that both on earth and in the heavens we are experiencing a time where things appear unusually quiet. I believe, however, that this is merely the calm before the storm. It is a period of time for the saints to get all in readiness for that which is coming. It would be a serious mistake to view this temporal respite as an opportunity to make worldly plans, assuming that all is stable, safe, and that times of prosperity will continue.

I would comment at this time on another issue that has been in the news recently. This involves the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. Some may remember when this Act was passed by Congress three years ago during the previous presidential term. The timing of the Act’s passage was most unusual. It was passed late in the evening, after the date of March 22nd (3-22) had begun at Greenwich Mean Time, also referred to as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The number 322 is an occult number used by the Illuminati and its affiliated groups such as the Yale society known as Skull and Bones.





In addition, in order to pass this highly unpopular Act, Congress resorted to some underhanded rule changes to accomplish it. The rule changes became known as “the Slaughter solution.” I posted an article at the time bearing the title The Slaughter Solution, and I recommend that readers review that article.

http://parablesblog.blogspot.com/2010/03/slaughter-solution.html

The Affordable Care Act, as it has come to be known, will prove to be neither affordable, nor caring. The reason for the great emphasis on passing this legislation was for the government to exert draconian control over the populace. The Affordable Care Act is a means to destroy further the freedoms of the American people. One of the freedoms under attack is freedom of religion.

Some may wonder, “What does a healthcare act have to do with religious freedom?” By wresting control of the entire nation’s healthcare system, the government is able to declare what healthcare services companies must provide to their employees. One of the services mandated by the Affordable Care Act includes making available the pharmaceutical drugs Plan B and Levonelle, also known as the morning after pill and the week after pill. These drugs induce a chemical abortion. Currently, approximately 60 lawsuits have been filed across the nation, primarily by Catholic businesses, protesting that this requirement infringes upon the religious freedom of the companies’ owners.

One of the companies to file suit that is not Catholic, but run by evangelical Christians, is Hobby Lobby. Hobby Lobby employs 13,000 people in its 525 stores. The government mandates that a company that is not in compliance with the mandates of the Affordable Care Act can be charged $100 per day per employee. Hobby Lobby’s owners have been threatened with fines of $1.3 million dollars per day for failing to provide abortion drugs to its employees.





The Green Family, who own Hobby Lobby, have said that they will close their businesses before they comply with what they believe to be immoral and unethical requirements. They refuse to be participants in abortion. Visit the following links to read more on this subject:

http://www.snopes.com/politics/medical/hobbylobby.asp

http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2013/october-web-only/will-supreme-court-review-hobby-lobbys-case-against-obamaca.html

The Christian Legal Society’s legal counsel, Kim Colby, stated:

"We're saying … the whole mandate is an unprecedented assault on religious liberty in this country."

The Federal government has requested that the Supreme Court review this case. This is not hopeful, for it was the Supreme Court, under the most deceptive and unethical manner, who ruled that Obamacare was constitutionally legal and permissible. Chief Justice John Roberts changed his stance on the constitutionality of this legislation at the last moment, declaring the Affordable Care Act legal by claiming that it is in fact a tax, a claim that Congress and the President had been assiduously denying as they were trying to sell the legislation to the public.

Should the Supreme Court rule that Christian businesses must provide abortion drugs to their employees, then a great many Christian business owners will have to decide whether they will place a desire to continue in business above their obedience to God. I can assure the readers of this blog that the government WILL rule that ALL businesses, irregardless of the religious convictions of the owners, must provide contraceptive and abortion drugs. Eventually this will be expanded to include paying for abortions themselves.

The Affordable Care Act also mandates that businesses, and individuals, pay for medical coverage that includes mental health care. This mental health care contains a Pandora’s box or woes. Among them are a profusion of mind altering drugs that destroy the lives of both children and adults, and psychological counseling that affirms homosexuality in any form as acceptable and normal, while prohibiting any counsel that would lead the individual engaged in homosexual behavior back to a God-ordained, righteous sexual orientation. Whether the Supreme Court rules against Hobby Lobby and other Christian business owners initially, they will do so eventually. Throughout America righteousness is being criminalized, while unrighteous acts, including the murder of the unborn and homosexuality are being defended as basic human rights that must be assured to all people.

These initial conflicts with the Affordable Care Act are merely the tip of the iceberg. America is being steered by the servants of Satan and the citizens that will be sacrificed first will be Christians. Tragically, many professing Christians will abandon all morality and betray the Lord who purchased them with His own blood. They will be seduced, pressured, and threatened. Many will find that their spiritual roots are inadequate to enable them to stand in a time of persecution.

Matthew 13:20-21
“And the one on whom seed was sown on the rocky places, this is the man who hears the word, and immediately receives it with joy; yet he has no firm root in himself, but is only temporary, and when affliction or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he falls away.”

Brothers and sisters, we are being given a brief respite before the great storms hit. I encourage you to make the most of the days of peace while they remain. America will no longer be a safe haven where Christians can live according to their convictions. Great persecution is at hand. An hour is near when the words of the apostle Peter will be fulfilled in the lives of many.

Philippians 1:29
For to you it has been granted for Christ's sake, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake...

Will you bear the cross when it is set before you? Will you walk faithfully with the Lord even when it costs you the loss of a business, your income, your home, and all your material possessions? Such experiences have been common to the disciples of Christ down through the centuries. The Christians in America will not be spared. They too will be called to experience rejection, reproaches, persecution, loss of homes and possessions, and even imprisonment.

Hebrews 10:32-39
But remember the former days, when, after being enlightened, you endured a great conflict of sufferings, partly, by being made a public spectacle through reproaches and tribulations, and partly by becoming sharers with those who were so treated. For you showed sympathy to the prisoners, and accepted joyfully the seizure of your property, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and an abiding one. Therefore, do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised. For yet in a very little while, He who is coming will come, and will not delay. But My righteous one shall live by faith; And if he shrinks back, My soul has no pleasure in him. But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the preserving of the soul.

During this period of calm, prepare your heart. Pay great heed to the voice of the Spirit. Whatever He shows you to do, do. It is the will of the Father that you might be able to stand firm in that day, and not shrink back. The letter written by the owner of Hobby Lobby reveals that in the face of this present threat to a business that is valued in the billions of dollars, he is ready to pay the cost. I will end with the open letter that David Green, CEO of Hobby Lobby, sent out to the public.

When my family and I started our company 40 years ago, we were working out of a garage on a $600 bank loan, assembling miniature picture frames. Our first retail store wasn’t much bigger than most people’s living rooms, but we had faith that we would succeed if we lived and worked according to God‘s word. From there, Hobby Lobby has become one of the nation’s largest arts and crafts retailers, with more than 500 locations in 41 states. Our children grew up into fine business leaders, and today we run Hobby Lobby together, as a family.

We’re Christians, and we run our business on Christian principles. I’ve always said that the first two goals of our business are (1) to run our business in harmony with God’s laws, and (2) to focus on people more than money. And that’s what we’ve tried to do. We close early so our employees can see their families at night. We keep our stores closed on Sundays, one of the week’s biggest shopping days, so that our workers and their families can enjoy a day of rest. We believe that it is by God’s grace that Hobby Lobby has endured, and he has blessed us and our employees. We’ve not only added jobs in a weak economy, we’ve raised wages for the past four years in a row. Our full-time employees start at 80% above minimum wage.

But now, our government threatens to change all of that. A new government health care mandate says that our family business MUST provide what I believe are abortion-causing drugs as part of our health insurance. Being Christians, we don’t pay for drugs that might cause abortions, which means that we don’t cover emergency contraception, the morning-after pill or the week-after pill. We believe doing so might end a life after the moment of conception, something that is contrary to our most important beliefs. It goes against the Biblical principles on which we have run this company since day one. If we refuse to comply, we could face $1.3 million PER DAY in government fines.

Our government threatens to fine job creators in a bad economy. Our government threatens to fine a company that’s raised wages four years running. Our government threatens to fine a family for running its business according to its beliefs. It’s not right. I know people will say we ought to follow the rules; that it’s the same for everybody. But that’s not true. The government has exempted thousands of companies from this mandate, for reasons of convenience or cost. But it won’t exempt them for reasons of religious belief.

So, Hobby Lobby – and my family – are forced to make a choice. With great reluctance, we filed a lawsuit today, represented by the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, asking a federal court to stop this mandate before it hurts our business. We don’t like to go running into court, but we no longer have a choice. We believe people are more important than the bottom line and that honoring God is more important than turning a profit.

YES, FEDS CAN TAKE YOUR DEPOSITS

NEW YORK – Can the federal government confiscate all the deposits in an American citizen’s FDIC-insured bank account?

The answer is “Yes.”

As WND reported, the Dodd-Frank bill allows the federal government to confiscate bank deposits in an unlimited “bail-in” for banks “too big to fail,” provided the account holder gets equity in exchange for the deposits.

In March, Cyprus agreed to confiscate 10 percent of all deposits in Cypriot banks, calculated to result in a 10 billion euro “bail-in” as a condition of obtaining an emergency Eurozone bail-out of 10 billion euros.

The question increasingly getting asked in international banking circles is this: Was the “Cyprus Experiment” in which the government confiscated bank deposits a first step toward what may well become a global trend over the next few years?

EU proposes deposit grab
Anyone who thinks the scenario is merely academic must realize that the European Parliament already is in the process of passing new regulations adopting the recommendation of its Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee. The panel recommends that a deposit guarantee funds should not protect a deposit of funds in a “guaranteed account” can be siezed when financial difficulties call for rescuing a troubled financial institution.

The text of the EU’s Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee recommendation calls for ruling out using deposits below 100,000 euros and specifies that confiscating deposits above 100,000 euros should be a last resort.

A European Parliament press release dated May 21 specified the “bail-in” scheme proposed by the EU’s Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee should be up and running by January 2016.

With the EU moving to codify procedures for confiscating depositor funds in a bank “bail-in,” the confiscation of deposits last March in the Mediterranean island nation of Cyprus may have only been a dry run for future bank crises anticipated by EU financial experts.

Are private retirement assets safe?
WND reported Sept. 9 that Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced a government decision in September to transfer to ZUS, the government pension system, all bond investments in privately held pension funds within the state-guaranteed system.

With the U.S. and the EU struggling with a debt crisis caused by slow economic growth and massive growth in social welfare programs, WND has previously reported that all private assets, including IRA and 401(k) retirement assets, may not be immune from one form or another of government takeover, even if new federal regulations that require a percentage of all private retirement assets in the U.S. be invested in federal government IOUs, including U.S. Treasury debt.

WND has reported government officials continue to eye the multi-trillion dollar private retirement savings market, including IRAs and 401(k) plans, seeing the opportunity to redistribute private retirement savings to less affluent Americans and to force the retirement savings out of the private market and into government-controlled programs investing in government-issued debt.

The ‘bail-in’ strategy
The possibility bank deposits could get confiscated by the federal government caused a firestorm of controversy following a WND story indicating Greece is considering confiscating corporate deposits to pay social security contribution shortfalls in the country.

“How is this possible?” many posting on Twitter and Facebook asked after the WND article was published.

The answer is provided in a little-noticed Dec. 10, 2012, memorandum published by the FDIC in the United States and the Bank of England in the United Kingdom titled “Resolving Globally Active, Systemically Important Financial Institutions.”

This paper redefines “too big to fail” companies as “Globally Active, Systemically Important, Financial Institutions,” or G-SIFIs, in the terminology of international banking.

The goal of the paper is to find a way to save big banks that are facing a financial crisis without having to utilize taxpayer funds to “bail out” the bank with what amounts to either a federal government loan or a federal government equity injection resulting in the government owning some percentage of the bailed-out bank.

The “bail-in” strategy under which some or all private bank deposits are confiscated to resolve a financial crisis was made possible because of powers granted the federal government in the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010.

In banking terms, the strategy creates a single receivership at a top-tier holding company and assigns losses to shareholders and unsecured creditors of the holding company. The aim is to transfer the sound operating bank subsidiaries that emerge from the restructuring to a new solvent entity or entities.

Put simply, bank deposits are considered under Dodd-Frank to be “owned” not by the despositor but by the bank, such that the bank has a contingent liability to owner regarding the deposits.

But that contingent liability can either be honored by the bank giving the account holder back his deposits when requested or giving bank stock should the bank need to confiscate the deposits to make up for a deficiency in the legal reserves required to operate or in any other financial crisis the bank faces.

The stock the account holder receives might not be in the bank where the money was deposited. It could be in the new bank entity or subsidiary that emerges after the “bail-in” has been accomplished.

Under Dodd-Frank, depositors are an unsecured creditor to the bank. The federal government under “Orderly Liquidation Authority” outlined in the legislation can seize any financial firm, not simply the largest ones, if the Federal Reserve, the secretary of the Treasury and the FDIC determine a particular bank failure may cause instability in the U.S. financial system.

A creative alternative to giving account holders bank equity after confiscating their deposits to “bail-in” a troubled financial institution may be to offer a special-issue U.S. Treasury instrument that may only be sold over a five-year period.

The Case for Chicago Becoming the Next False Flag Event

“You want answers?”

“I want the truth”

“You can’t handle the truth!”

I am so taken by the above-mentioned quote, that I use a parody of the quote in the introduction of my talk show. The partial quote listed above, represents the classic dialogue between Tom Cruise and Jack Nicholson, from the movie A Few Good Men, in one of the most compelling exchanges in movie history. This scene serves to capture, through Jack Nicholson’s skillful acting, what is wrong with the American character today. Most Americans lack courage and seek to hide from the truth in order to enable what sociologists say is a fervent desire to maintain their normalcy bias which results in most of our countrymen hearing and seeing no evil.

The following article is not for the faint of heart. If you desire to keep on burying your head in the sand, then go watch the NFL. Of course, if we do not collectively wake up the majority of sheep which inhabit this country and motivate them to action against the globalists, the acronym “NFL” will soon come to mean Not For Long.  And “Not For Long” will soon represent how long the sheeple of this country can keep their heads buried in the sand as the country disintegrates into total chaos. No amount of cognitive dissonance, normalcy bias and general apathy will protect the sheep for much longer.

Chicago is in grave danger. The ghosts of Benghazi loom large as the dark side seeks to invent a new way into Syria/Iran as well as impose martial law upon America. The Obama administration is on its last legs and they quickly need a game changing event.

 Ten False Flag “Type” Drills In Six Weeks

One false flag type drill down and nine to go. In a six week period, ranging from September 25-November 13, FEMA and DHS will have conducted ten false flag drills. My insider sources and my subsequent research reveals that in prior years, FEMA and DHS were not able to launch one of these drills more than six months apart. But now, we are seeing 10 false flag type of drills in a six week period?  This is should be raising a lot of eyebrows especially given the fact that it was these kinds of drills which allowed previous false flag attacks to occur in such notable events as 9/11, 7/7 bombings and the Boston Marathon Bombings. Here is a list of drills and a few operational notes:

Dirty Bomb Drill in the Port of Houston on September 25th

Already took place without incident

1. FEMA purchase orders for over $14.2 million for MREs and heater meals to be delivered to Region III by October 1st.  Distribution in Progress

If a prolonged blackout is in effect these supplies would be needed.

2. FEMA purchase orders for 22 million pouches of emergency water to be delivered to Region III by October 1st. Distribution In Progress

This speaks to a poisoning of the water supply which could follow a pandemic release or a nuclear detonation making ground water unfit to drink.

3. FEMA purchase orders for $13.6 million for MREs and heater meals to be delivered to Austin, TX. by October 1st. Distribution in Progress

The above speaks to the widespread nature of the attacks and is highly suggestive of multiple attacks.

4. $11 million in antibiotics to be delivered to FEMA region III by October 1st ordered by CDC. Distribution in Progress

This clearly speaks to a pandemic release.

5, Nine-week training course for UN Peacekeepers in CONUS to learn Urban Warfare, English, and US weapons systems beginning late July for 386,000 troops to be completed by October 1st. Where did these troops go? There is no evidence that they have left the country.

Meet your new martial law troops.

6. Great ShakeOut Earthquake Drill Set Oct. 17

Choose a fault line in the United States, any fault line. Mix in a little HAARP and you add another piece to the multiple planned attacks.

7. More Than 1,000 Banks Plan National Cyber-Attack Drill Oct. 16-17, Oct. 23-24

This is more of post-apocalyptic in nature in which the banking system will be taken down within a planned blackout. This ushers in a new global currency following the domestic collapse of the dollar.

8. Quantum Dawn’ Is a Cyber-Attack Bank Drill

Same analysis as #7.

9. GridEx2 Nov. 13-14, Power Blackout Drill

This simulated terrorist attack upon the power grid could prove to be the most promising for embedding a false flag attack.

Nobody in the media is asking why the unprecedented onslaught of disaster drills by DHS and FEMA. In the present climate, somebody should be asking questions.

The Site of the Next False Flag Attack?

People often ask me where do I see the next false flag attack? I respond by saying that I do not have crystal ball. However, the globalists do leave clues and my best guess is that Chicago is on the top of the menu in the list of cities to exploit in the next false flag attacks.

When do rumors become reality? How many connected dots does it take to form a coherent picture of clear intent? All signs point to the fact that the people of Chicago are looking at becoming the victim of a deadly false flag attack on an unprecedented scale. The coming false flag attack upon Chicago will be the culminating event of a well-orchestrated plot designed to preserve the Petrodollar scheme, which will ultimately start WWW III by providing a pretext to attack Iran and agitating Russia and China into responding. But first, before we consider the impact of the coming false flag attack upon Chicago, we must first examine the significance of the death of Ambassador Christopher Stevens, whose death was used to cover up the supplying of al-Qaeda with hand held stinger missiles. The Stevens death will ultimately represent the first real shots of WWW III and will provide the trigger event for a global war.

In the case of the “missing arms,” thousands of stinger missiles have fallen into the hands of al-Qaeda. Therefore, our executive branch of government, have armed terrorists with the capability of bringing down airliners in the West. If just one airliner is brought down by one of the stinger missiles, Assad will be blamed and the pretext for war with Syria and Iran will have been achieved and America will be under martial law.

If an airliner is brought down, this will just be the beginning. American cities will also be targeted to leave no doubt that Iran and Syria are responsible. Based upon the following evidence, I believe that Chicago is a likely target.

The Case for Chicago Being the Victim of a False Flag Attack

On The Common Sense Show with Dave Hodges, it was subsequently revealed that the global elite are planning on initiating a mass casualty event on an unprecedented scale. The evidence is solid and serves to support what I have known to be true since I wrote Red Dawn and the Chicago Spring in which I detailed the execution of a Beta test for an attack upon the city of Chicago. Since that article first appeared in May of 2012 and with the follow up article in September of 2012 entitled, The Road to WWW III Runs Through Chicago, the unfolding events make it appear even more likely that Chicago will be the ultimate destination of a false flag attack which will ultimately lead to the potential deaths of tens of millions Americans in the coming WWW III.

FEMA and DHS Preparation Related to Chicago

The potential attack upon Chicago has already been rehearsed at the NATO Summit held in South Chicago in late May, 2012, in which preparations for disaster planning and the Beta test for the implementation of martial law in case of some “provoked” event was instituted and coincided with the previously held NATO Summit. My suspicions about Chicago being a false flag target were strengthened by the fact that, President Obama has no intention of returning to Chicago. At the end of his second term, the President is moving to Hawaii and has plans to sell his Hyde Park residence. Obama is nobody’s fool and plans to be out of harm’s way when the coming catastrophe befalls Chicago.

My belief for an impending false flag attack upon Chicago is also strengthened by the fact that communities surrounding Chicago are storing supplies which are strongly suggestive of coming mass casualty event. An Inside source reveals FEMA & DHS are preparing mass graves and martial law near Chicago. This news release parallels what Annie De Riso, News Director for The Common Sense Show, revealed three years ago in her news segment when she stated that Gary, Indiana officials were being forced to store 400,000 FEMA coffins and that local officials were tasked to formulate a Hazard Mitigation Plan in which massive amounts of people would be vaccinated within 48 hours of an event.

From the White House to the Outhouse of City Politics

Additionally, Rahm Emanuel, a strongly rumored Mossad agent, inexplicably left a high level cabinet position in the Obama administration and mysteriously became the mayor of Chicago. With this kind of downward move, Emanuel’s next career move would involve vying for a dog catcher’s position in Cook County. Emanuel’s career path makes absolutely no sense unless one considers that he was placed in an executive position, in Chicago, in order to facilitate a false flag attack. Following the attack, he would then conceal the true facts of the attack and fabricate evidence associated with the event and then subsequently participate in the plot which will serve to lay the blame at the feet of Iran. Therefore, I contend that this suspected Israeli operative was placed in this position to facilitate a massive false flag attack upon Chicago in order to provoke a war with Syria and Iran, thus pleasing his Israeli handlers who are foaming at the mouth to get into a war with these two countries.

War Monger Patrick Clawson

Neocon, Israeli lobbyist and general warmonger, Patrick Clawson of the Washington Institute is on the record for advocating for a “crisis initiation” event (i.e. false flag event) designed to provoke a war with Iran. Clawson’s comments are not to be taken lightly as he was addressing several top governmental analysts and corporate policy makers. This parallels what was revealed on the September 30, 2012 edition of The Common Sense Show (2nd Hour), in which it was demonstrated that Clawson’s views represent a clear intent to go to war with Iran by any means necessary.

I have also had personal conversations with a member of the LaRouche Group in which they unequivocally state that nuclear war with Iran and her Russian and Chinese allies is still a very real possibility. Lyndon LaRouche is very well connected with several members of Congress and when one considers the impact of recent Congressional legislation which deals with mass casualty events, this warning must be taken seriously.

The above-mentioned facts represent the significant circumstantial evidence which supports my views that the road to WWW III runs through Chicago. However, the evidence trail does not grow cold with the preceding paragraphs. There is much, much more to support this assertion.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words

For those who think the preceding paragraphs are nothing but idle speculation, consider the fact that former insiders are uniform in their assertion that only a false flag can save Obama’s Presidency. Also, the actions of various factions of the United States government are highly suspicious in that FEMA is mobilizing to deal with mass American casualties and Congress is moving to pass legislation to deal with mass casualties as well. First, we look at former insiders and their collective views on an impending false flag attack and their assertions date back several years.

Former Clinton Aide, Mark Penn, while appearing on MSNBC’s Hardball in 2010, boldly stated that only an “Oklahoma City like event” would ensure the re-election of Obama in 2012.  Penn reminded the Chris Matthews’ audience that President Clinton reconnected with the American people through the Oklahoma City tragedy.  Even though Obama was elected without the benefit of a false flag event, this shows that this thinking is alive and well in the Obama administration.

Another former Clinton adviser Robert Shapiro issued a similar statement, when he was asked about Obama’s chances of surviving his first term in office. Shapiro wrote on the Financial Times that only an “Oklahoma City bombing” or a “9/11 style event” could give Obama a chance to demonstrate that he is a strong leader. Shapiro further stated that “The bottom line here is that Americans don’t believe in President Obama’s leadership,…” and that “He has to find some way between now and November of demonstrating that he is a leader who can command confidence and, short of a 9/11 event or an Oklahoma City bombing, I can’t think of how he could do that.”

Today, Obama may not be facing re-election, but he has many scandals hanging over his head that the corporate controlled media will just make disappear if Obama can gain the pretext for war in the Middle East because Obama is under extreme pressure to act in the Middle East.

Adding More Fuel to the Fire

The globalist-serving Brookings Institute issued a special report entitled, Which path to Persia, which details, on pages 24 and 25, that Israel, Saudi Arabia and the United States are clearly behind Syria’s violence. Clearly, what we are seeing today in Syria is the full manifestation of this premeditated conspiracy, as detailed by the Brookings Institute, against the government of Syria and this plan was devised in 2007 under the Bush administration.

According to the Brookings Institute, obtaining the globalist’s real objective, Iran, runs through Syria. Syria is a necessary objective because it serves as a partial buffer zone between Russia and Iran. Further, by occupying Syria, Russia falls under the range of small and medium missiles and could serve as a deterrent to Russian intervention.

Why would Iran, a nation who is avoiding war with the United States at all costs, have to be invaded? The simplest answer is that they are selling their oil for gold and it is serving to undermine the Petrodollar scheme of the Federal Reserve and the rest of their central bankster friends in other countries.  In fact, in the same Brookings report, they also propose the use of MEK as a suitable American proxy which could be used to provoke Iran. For that purpose, the MEK would need arms. Who was in position to supply the MEK weapons in order to carry out this deed? It was none other than Christopher Stevens and now these radical extremists have at least 20,000 hand held stinger missiles and an untold number of small arms. The only thing left for Clinton to do was to erase the only link between the State Department and this dastardly plan designed to ultimately get the United States into WWW III and that would be the elimination of the middle man, Chris Stephens. To Secretary Clinton, the life of Stephens, a human being with a family, was no more valuable to her than a worthless pawn on a chess board which was easily sacrificed in order to achieve a greater objective. Here, we need to hearken back Patrick Clawson’s words about commencing an initiated crisis with Iran discussed earlier in this report.

And let’s return to the FEMA preparedness drills currently taking place. These drills are not taking place in isolation as Congress recently passed a bill, H. R. 6566 or the Mass Fatality Planning and Religious Considerations Act, which mandates the Federal Emergency Management Agency is preparing for mass casualty planning and funeral homes, cemeteries and mortuaries will become “overwhelmed” in the aftermath of a terrorist attack.

The Murder of Jeff Joe Black

The late Jeff Joe Black frequently called into my talk show. He was a Chicago based activist who was vehemently opposed to Emanuel becoming the mayor of Chicago. Black used to send me a variety of news tips. Some of his information was intriguing and I had several off-air conversations with him. At one point, Black was scheduled to be a guest on my talk show and but he cancelled at the last minute. Black informed me that he feared for his life and was going into hiding, which he subsequently did. In Black’s cancelled appearance he was to going reveal that Rahm Emanuel was part of the Israeli Mossad who left his role as Obama’s White House adviser to run for the mayor of Chicago for the express purpose of someday covering up the trail for a false flag event which was to someday befall Chicago. Black was warned to within an inch of his life and he went into hiding and left the country.

Early last fall, Black resurfaced and he contacted me. We spoke a couple of times about his appearing on my show to talk about Emanuel and his evil intentions towards Chicago. Why do I think that Black was on to something nefarious about Emanuel? Because Black appears to have been murdered in October of 2012 and his death is being investigated as a homicide.

Black had told me in detail that we were going to see Chicago become the site of a massive false flag operation which would prove to be the catalyst to martial law. Following the false flag attack, Chicago was to be the site of a massive wave of house to house gun confiscations. It was Black’s contention that this was a lead up to the implementation of full-scale martial law and possible WWIII in the Middle East. As an aside, here is a video of Black being arrested after he filed paperwork challenging Emanuel’s eligibility to run for mayor based upon this status of being a non-resident in Chicago. Jeff, may you rest in peace.

Conclusion

How many coincidences equal a conspiracy? How many dots must be connected before everyone agrees on the trend curve? The answer is that there is no answer. Many Americans, no matter how much proof they have revealed to them, will never accept the cold, hard reality of the times we now live in because of cognitive dissonance and the prior conditioning they have experienced at the hands of the main stream media in which the government is portrayed as pure as the driven snow. To these people, their reality is “the government would never do that” and “there is no such thing as a conspiracy theory.”

Sadly, we could stop this craziness in its tracks by getting the masses to stand up to this insanity and the global elite would scurry for cover if only we could shed light upon their intentions.

Regardless of the social, political and psychological reasons for remaining a sheep who is asleep at the wheel, America, you have been warned!
