Why Does the DHS Need 1.6 Billion Rounds of Ammo?

Thursday, May 2nd, 2013
This topic is one which has been discussed on the Internet for a while, but only recently has it been increasingly covered in the mainstream media and it has now even drawn the serious attention of members of Congress on both sides of the aisle. Therefore, I will comment on this controversial topic. You may want to get a cup of coffee. This may take a while to read, and its subject matter is serious. I will discuss openly what I think tens of millions of Americans are now thinking, and discuss it in a biblical context.
 
It concerns a reported “buy” of 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in the USA. The first link, from Forbes.com ( a mainstream media source), reports that the DHS intends to buy 1.6 bllion rounds of ammunition and that this very strange action by the DHS should stimulate ”a national conversation.” Forbes.com is right. This post is intended to participate and help stimulate such a national debate, especially from a Christian point of view. This first link is dated 3/11/13 and it states the issue had “little notice” at that time. That is no longer the case as it is becoming a hot topic now, as it should. The Forbes article reports that the DHS is not only buying 1.6 billion rounds of ammo, but it is also buying hollow-point rounds—which are forbidden by international law for use in warfare as the rounds are so destructive. Question: if these rounds are so destructive they are outlawed in foreign wars, why is the DHS buying them for domestic use? Who is the DHS intending to kill? These rounds are not suitable for training purposes. This article also warns the DHS is buying 2,717 armored personnel carriers (MRAPS like thosre used in Afghanistan vs. the Taliban). Apparently, the DHS also intends to use these armored vehicles against someone in the domestic USA as the DHS has no role in foreign wars. The story begs the question: What Americans are they intending to use these armored vehicles against?  What threat does the DHS see that requires them to have more armored vehicles than exist in the entire armies of most foreign nations? The Forbes issue states that “there…are real signs that the Department bureaucrats are running amok.” It also notes that spending so large an amount of money on a century’s worth of  ammo “is way beyond absurd well into perverse,” and further cites the sequestration process which requires all federal government agencies to cut spending as making this kind of wild spending on creating a DHS army rather ridiculous.
 
The second link, from Fox News, points out the shocking statistic that the DHS is “using roughly 1000 rounds of ammunition more per person than the US army [emphasis added].” The DHS even has its agents using up bullets at a rate of 1300-1600 per officer, even thought the US army only uses about 350 rounds per soldier. How can this federal agency’s spending for such excessive use of ammo be so out of control and not have been reigned in? This article notes that members of Congress “sharply questioned DHS officials on their ‘massive’ bullet buys.” Under questioning, a DHS bureaucrat scaled back the intended size of DHS’s ammo buy to only 750,000,000 rounds (as if that should reassure anyone).
 
The above paragraphs questioned who the DHS’s targets are in their massive stockpiling of ammo, armored vehicles, etc. The third through fifth links make that answer very clear…from Secretary Napolitano’s own words and the DHS’ actions. The third link reports the very disturbing news that DHS Secretary Napolitano has “labeled law-abiding citizens as ‘right-wing extremists’ and potential ‘terrorists’…” Groups she identifies as being dangerous terrorists-types are Christians who believe in the Bible or its end-time prophecies, military veterans, those who purchase legal firearms or ammo, those who oppose the UN, the NAU or RFID chips, those who have a Ron Paul bumper sticker, etc. In other words, the article indicates that Napilitano labels anyone who is a patriotic, Constitutionalist or Libertarian American as a potential terrorist.
 
This would be denounced as utterly crazy if the shoe was on the other foot. If we had a far-right president and a far-right DHS Secretary instead of the far-left president and DHS Secrteary we now have? What if a far-right DHS Secretary labeled Muslims, anyone belonging to the ACLU, environmental rights groups, the Audubon Society, homosexuals and all pro-gay activists and all pro-abortionists and anyone who has ever worked for Planned Parenthood as “potential terrorists?” Can you imagine the outcry the left-wing press would unleash demanding the resignation (if not the outright criminal prosecution and/or psychiatric evaluation) of any such far-right DHS Secretary? However, Napolitano’s statements are just as outlandishly ridiculous as the supposed statements of a right-wing DHS Secretary would be! Some of Napolitano’s statements clearly attack Constitutional freedoms. The US Constitution forbids Congress from making any law that restricts freedom of religious expression. That certainly applies to the entire federal government agencies who “legislate laws” via their rule-making authority. Napolitano has just declared all the above categories (likely a majority of the entire US population) as her enemies? Her action is so extreme that one wonders if she  is off her meds or determined to make sure the Democrats are clobbered in the next election?
 
If Congress had any backbone, they would demand Obama fire Napolitano immediately. That he has not done so strongly indicates he shares her radical, anti-Constitutional viewpoints. The fourth link reports that when given a chance to back off her radically-extremist statements, Napolitano refused to do so. This means she really is a radically mixed-up bureaucrat re: who the real potential terrorists are. As these links note, her warnings refuse to name Islamic radicals and Jihadis as terrorist threats although they are clearly from past experience one of the most likely source of potential terrorists (as were the recent Boston Marathon terrorists). The fourth link also reports that the Senior Democrat on a House Congressional Committee overseeing the DHS was “dumbfounded’ at Napolitano’s weird identification about potential terrorists. Napolitano’s suspicions that veterans are potential terrorists is particular wacky. US military veterans who have been fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan to defend the USA against Islamic terrorists and Islamic Jihadi groups overseas are a terrorist danger themselves once they return to US soil? By what twisted logic can this be asserted?  Her utterly-misguided animus against Veterans has surely been noticed by all active-duty members of the US military—who will be veterans themselves someday. I can’t help but think all active-duty military personnel must be wondering if Napolitano (and her boss) secretly regard US military members as their enemies as well. This whole thing would be utterly surreal if it wasn’t really happening.
 
The fifth link, from Glenn Beck’s website, is equally disturbing. A seminar in Colorado, according to a Colorado Undersheriff who attended the meeting, reported that the DHS and the Colorado Police authorities trained Colorado law enforcement personnel to regard Christians who take the Bible literally to be regarded with “intense skepticism.” Again, this is a gross violation of the US Consitution’s langauge that permits the free expression of religious beliefs without government interference. I wonder if this seminar also warned that anyone who takes the Koran literally should be regarded with “intense skepticism.” If not, the whole seminar (like Napolitano’s bizarre Nixonian “enemies list” of potential terrorists), sounds “Christianity-phobic.” One thing I will note about this link. It brings up the subject of “sovereign citizens.” As some readers likely recall, I did a post on the sovereign citizen movement and warned against anyone getting involved with it. I did so because I believe in the Bible literally and documented that anyone who believes the Bible literally would not get involved with such a movement. Someone in the DHS must mistakenly belive that a literal belief in the Bible could lead to one joining the radical sovereign citizen movement. The truth is precisely the opposite (as anyone who has read my article, Christian Rights and Citizenship Responsibilities, would know).
 
This brings us, inevitably, to the gun-control issue. Why is the Obama administration trying to “gun up” the DHS beyond any defensible measure at precisely the same time they are trying to take away (or prevent from owning) certain guns from America citizens in gun-control legislation? Many in America (and Congress) oppose Obama’s gun-control legislation because they believe that it would only be an incremental first-step in a plan to take all guns away from Americans (which would be a total repudiation of the US Constitution and its 2nd Amendment). Such a move would be an attempt to impose an utterly-illegal coup against American Constitutional government. A discussion of this possibility occurred on a popular TV panel and when the moderator asked what an effort to seize all guns from Americans would mean, a panel participant, the well-known Pat Buchanan, interjected without pause that it would cause a “civil war” (see sixth link). He is, no doubt, correct. If such an unlikely scenario unfolded, it would also not be a war exclusively between the people and the government.
 
Think this is all too alarmist? A Nobel Peace prize nominee has warned that the Obama administration is making efforts to see who in the military is willing to open fire on American civilians if given orders to do so (see seventh link). This ought to give you some serious things to consider as the DHS apparently is trying to build a domestic “army” of its own.
 
All US military personnel swear an oath to defend the US Constitution (including the 2nd Amendment), but they have taken no oath that I know of to obey illegal or unconstitutional orders from the president. I think their oath includes a phrase to defend the Constitution from “all enemies foreign and domestic” [emphasis added]. If any president or federal agency tried to seize Americans’ guns and, in so doing, brazenly attacked the US Constitution, all military personnel who take their solemn oath seriously would see any president or federal agency attempting such an action as ”a domestic enemy” of the Constitution and they would need to openly resist such efforts. There is actually a website of uniformed and retired law-enforcement and military members who have already declared their loyalty to the Second Amendment (and all the rest of the US Constitution) against any US president or agency that seeks to destroy US Constitutional rights. One of their links is the eighth link in which a retired US army captain calls on the DHS to surrender its military-style weaponry to the Department of Defense. I think vast numbers of veterans still take their military oath seriously. Is that why Secretary Napolitano regards veterans as dangerous to her goals?  I also think many loyal patriotic federal agents would not only refuse to obey any unconstitutional (i.e., illegal) order from the president or their agency heads to seize Americans’ weapons, but would actively oppose them. The ninth link lists that about 400 County Sheriffs across the nation have publicly declared they will not obey or implement any unconstitutional laws passed by the federal government in their jurisdictions. If about 400 have publicly taken such a stand, I think it safe to say thousands of others secretly agree with them. There are also reports of a variety of US states who are considering or passing legislation to “nullify” any federal law that attacks the Constitution.
 
So far, I have given you information from mainstream media souces. The tenth link is from Alex Jones’ website. I don’t listen to his broadcasts, but I understand he is a late-night talk-show host who represents a very right-wing viewpoint. If you thought the above was scary, read his link. The eleventh link purports to identify the specific locations of over 200 secret “detention” camps now located “secretly” in the USA, and the more alarmist Internet sites believe that Napolitano’s targeted groups are intended to be interned in these camps some day. You can check on your state’s list on this roster and map). A word about these camps.
 
The alarmist websites and links may be right, but there is one other possibility I’d like to point out for balance. I was employed in municipal and metropolitan government positions for almost a decade. All government agencies make all kinds of emergency plans for every kind of emergency scenario. For example, when I was working at a large metro hub airport, my normal position would have been changed to a press liason if our airport had experienced a jet crash, and I’d have had to give releases to the press re: accident details, casualty lists, etc. Federal agencies surely have all kinds of emergency plans. We live in an age where there is a real possibility of radioactive dirty bombs being set off in a city, an EMP blast by an enemy or via solar surges, earthquakes which could make a city (or cities) uninhabitable, etc. In such  events, there could be millions or hundreds of thousands of American civilian refugees. Given this fact, the US government would be derelict in their duty if they did not build large refugee resettlement camps to house such refugees—especially if such disasters happened in winter. If such events happened, having such refugee camps would be a Godsend and their existence would largely be kept secret in order to avoid panicking people. I am not a “knee-jerk’” anti-government type and I think that such a benign explanation for such camps could be possible. However, Secretary Napolitano’s threatening and nonsensical terrorist watch list announcements fuel the fires of the alarmists’ interpretation of the purpose of these camps.
 
I’ll have more to say on the “blow back” that Napolitano’s bizarre pronouncements have created, but that will have to wait for another day. This post is long enough. I’d like to conclude that Congress needs to de-fund the DHS’s vast ammo buys, its massive buys of armored vehicles, etc. They also should demand Napolitano’s resignation for insulting and impugning vast swaths of the mainstream American populace. You may wish to contact your Senators and Congressional representatives about this “hot” issue.
 
One last item for you to consider: the last link is a commentary from the Russian media re: Napolitano’s enemies lists and related topics. I thought you might find it interesting what the Russians have to say about these bizarre events in our own nation. The article from the Russia Times makes some interesting points and reveals additional information on this topic not found in the American media links.

Wall Street’s Dirty Secrets

Wednesday, April 24th, 2013
This post is packed with information you need to know. Do not expect the mainstream media to tell you much about these facts (although there are a few exceptions).
 
Recently, the stock market averages have hit new highs and this is celebrated as a sign the recession is over. I don’t think so. I think these links reveal the incredible degree to which the stock markets (and other investment markets) are being “manipulated” and “rigged” as is cited in these links.
 
ABOUT THOSE NEW “HIGHS”:
The first two links [1, 2] cite a story that ran as a feature story in the USA Today on March 18, 2013. It revealed an extraordinary statistic about the stock market. It reports that the number of tradable, publicly-owned stocks has plummeted. Indeed, they report the number of publicly-traded stocks has dropped from 6639 in 2000 to only 3687 in 2012. That means 2952 of the number of stock selections that were available to investors in 2000 has dropped by 2952 stocks or 44.5% of all stocks in the USA in that time. The links reveal “the stock market is going private. It keeps self-consuming.” Consider what this means for market comparisons over the years. The recent stock market highs were reached only because 2952 of the buyable pool of stocks vanished! If those 2952 stocks still existed, much of the money that poured into the remaining and shrinking pool of stock choices would have been distributed among the other 2952 stock choices and the recent “highs” would never have been reached. The reports of new highs in the stock indices are comparing apples and oranges. In order to be a valid comparison, the number of tradable stocks would have had to remain a constant.
 
AVERAGE STOCK HELD ONLY 22 SECONDS:
The third through fifth links [3, 4, 5] report another shocking statistic. The average stock is held for only 22 seconds! This means there is an unbelievable level of “churning” going on in the stock market data. In former years, investors bought and held a stock for months or years in order to obtain an expected gain on their initial investment. I’ve bought and sold stocks for over two decades. I remember those years. Today, if the average stock is held only 22 seconds, it means that each stock reported as traded in any given day has been exchanged back and forth between big players on the stock market perhaps over 1000 times every day! The fourth link reveals that 70% of all stocks are held for only 11 seconds, indicating that these stocks are being bought and sold perhaps over 2000 times every day! Think of how all this churning distorts the average stock volumes each day. To have this kind of rapid turn-over of all stocks each day, I can only understand this as meaning the big Wall Street institutions and market-makers are buying and selling the same stocks back and forth to each other every day to inflate the number of stocks traded each day and create a perception of a level of interest in the stock market that doesn’t really exist. Think of how the stock market volumes would plummet if only those stocks held for one entire day were included in the stock market trading activity tallies. Think of the ways that insider games can be played with this kind of market data manipulation and insider dealing. Think I’m jumping to conclusions? Keep reading, We are only beginning to have some fun and insight here.
 
A REGIONAL FED PRESIDENT’S WARNING:
Let’s now hear from a key insider in the USA’s financial establishment. Were you aware that the President of the Dallas Federal Reserve Board District, Richard Fisher, not long ago declared that “the financial system is ‘rigged’ to benefit big banks.” See the sixth link and seventh link for more information on his observation. That so high a Fed official made this statement implies that even the Fed is starting to fear the chokehold that a few big banks have on the US financial and investment markets. Fed District President Fisher added that “The largest U.S. banks are “practitioners of crony capitalism,” need to be broken up to ensure they are no longer considered too big to fail, and continue to threaten financial stability…” (emphasis added). I suggest reading that again to take in the gravity of his statement. This establishment insider is saying the largest US banks are now so big they are a threat to the stability of the US financial system itself. I wonder why? That leads us to the next section.
 
GOLDMAN SACHS’ “MARKET-RIGGING COMPUTER PROGRAM”:
A few years ago, I mentioned this shocking fact in several posts (8/8/2009). The eighth link and ninth link contain perhaps the most shocking revelation of all. They reveal that Goldman Sachs revealed years ago that it had what these links called a ”market-rigging computer program.” A Goldman-Sachs employee released some of this “market-rigging computer program” to others and was promptly arrested by the FBI and sentenced very quickly to eight years in prison. Interesting. Is this an example of what Regional Fed President Richard Fisher called “crony capitalism?” Goldman Sachs was able to get the civil government to prevent the further dissemination of what I see as an insider-trading program that should get anyone who used this program to manipulate the investment markets jailed. Perhaps the man who revealed the existence of this “unfair” trading program possessed in-house at Goldman Sachs should have been seen as a whistle-blower and those who developed or used this “market rigging computer program” should have been the ones arrested by the FBI. The links also report that this program could be used for a “gold price suppression scheme.” Hmmm. Think about what has happened recently in the current gold and silver markets in light of that statement. I thought illegal insider trading and market rigging should be prosecuted (instead of protected) by the federal government.
 
I’ve recently seen the phrase “too big to be prosecuted” being used in financial market websites re: the huge Wall Street banks. I think Fed District President Richard Fisher was right in his above-cited observations.
 
NEW SUPERCOMPUTERS IN STOCK MARKET USAGE:
The final link reveals that new, ultra-fast supercomputers can soon be used to implement “improved monitoring and regulation” of US financial markets (presumably, all stock, futures, precious metals and commodities markets). Perhaps that word “regulation” really means “manipulation” of all US financial markets. I’ll bet some computer wizards will be able to integrate the Goldman-Sachs “market-rigging computer program” into these new supercomputers to create real-time, constant manipulation of all financial markets while leaving the impression that these markets are actually free markets. It is my opinion that there is already no independently-functioning, free financial or investment market in the USA, if not in the world, any longer.
 
BIBLICAL RAMIFICATIONS:
For years, I have warned that Revelation 17-18 foretell of a massive, future collapse of the current global financial/monetary markets and of the global insider elites that manipulate and profit from these markets. Revelation 18:1-3 identify that in the latter days a very corrupt global financial system will exist in which the “merchants of the earth” (the big international corporations and market insiders) and the “kings of the earth” (the politicians and governments) will cooperate to rob the nations and the world’s masses of their wealth. Think of how the cooperation betwen Goldman Sachs and the US Government’s FBI’s action to arrest the one who exposed Goldman Sachs’ “market rigging computer program” is just one small example of this prophesied cooperation. The revolving doors via which highly-placed insiders move back and forth between corporate boardrooms and governmental positions also fulfills this prophesy perfectly!
 
Revelation 17-18 prophesy this corrupt system called “Babylon the Great” will experience a sudden and total collapse when their global system is overthrown by “seven heads and ten horns” (likely nations) who have become so sick of the current system that they wage war upon it. They will win totally and Revelation 17:16 indicates that the current insider elites who have set up and controlled the current “Babylon the Great” system will experience a very hard fall. When this occurs, the final global system of this age called “the beast” system will be slam-dunked on the nations–restoring order out of the chaos caused by the collapse of the current global system. This final beast system will have only 42 months to exist (Revelation 13:1-5) before it too is utterly destroyed by the return of Jesus Christ and his army of millions of light-beings the Bible calls angels. That time will witness an age-ending war in which the forces of light and darkness will wage all-out war in both the spirit and physical realms. You can read about that and the victory of the forces led by Jesus Christ in Revelation 19:11-20:4. Indeed, no physical life would survive this war at all if Jesus Christ and his heavenly army didn’t intervene in the physical world and take control of it (Matthew 24:21-22).
 
Given the deep fractures and instability in the current global financial system and the bizarre actions being taken by the world’s governing bodies (such as the seizure of insured deposits in Cyprus to bail out big money-lenders), the collapse of the world’s current “Babylon the Great” system may be hastening toward us. For in-depth information on the biblical ramifications of what is happening in global financial and monetary markets, please read my articles entitled Is Babylon the Great about to Fall…Ushering in a New Beast System? and What Kind of Captivity? – The Babylonian Origin of the Modern Banking System.

Media Update on Abortionist’s “House of Horrors”

Tuesday, April 23rd, 2013
The April 23, 2013 issue of USA Today featured a lengthy, front-page article which offers more information about an abortionist’s pending trial for murdering live babies which survived abortions at his now-closed “clinic.” The article refers to this facility as being called a “house of horrors” by a district attorney and the story includes graphic information and first-person accounts about the killings of helpless babies at his facility.
 
This is an update to my previous post. The information in this article powerfully illustrates the truth of Paul’s prophecy in Romans 1:31 that in the latter days, society would have a lack of “natural affection” (or be “heartless” as my marginal Bible reference renders it). If the charges against this abortionist are true, one wonders how anyone could be so “heartless” as to do such murderous acts.
 
The second link relates that three of the eight murder charges against the abortionist have been dismissed by a judge but five of the murder charges remain. If convicted, the article notes that the abortionist doctor faces the death penalty.
 
Interestingly, although the first link was one of the front-page, featured articles in the April 23, 2013 issue of USA Today, the article was all but impossible to find at the USA Today website. A Google search for the article by its name resulted in no hits. A further Google search for the article listing both the article’s title and author turned up no hits. Only when I typed in the name of the article, the author’s name and the newspaper’s name was I able to locate USA Today’s own featured story (the first link) on Google’s site. It does appear to me that the print and electronic media are trying to “bury” this story and hide from the public the horrors of what can go on at an abortion facility. Even FoxNews had no story about the trial mentioned at its homepage today. I only found the second link when I used the “search”  feature at the FoxNews website and typed in the abortionist’s name. Congratulations to the print version of the USA Today for giving this story the conspicuous coverage it deserves.

Trial of Ghoulish Abortion “Doctor”

Sunday, April 21st, 2013
Lost amidst the wall-to-wall coverage of the Boston Marathon terrorist bombings and the horrific fertilizer explosion in Texas is an important story about the trial of a particularly ghoulish abortion “doctor.” This abortionist “caused the death of a patient and seven babies allegedly born alive as well as performing illegal late-term abortions” (see first link). He even “beheaded” live-born babies and one child was heard screaming after it was delivered before this ghoulish abortionist killed it. He even is alleged to have collected and stored in jars the feet of aborted babies. This sounds like a ghoulish serial killer.
 
These horrific events occurred at an abortion facility in the Philadelphia area, but who knows how many other abortion mills around the nation have had the same kinds of ghoulish infant murders but they were not disclosed to the public or media. Indeed, the media has been very reluctant to even report about the trial of this allegedly-murderous abortionist. This unwillingness by the US media to report widely on this sensationalist story confirms their politically-correct bias that doesn’t want to report the true horrors of abortion. Congratulations to USA Today for covering this important story that ought to shock the nation.
 
I’m not an attorney but I believe the Supreme Court ruling in the infamous Roe v. Wade decision created a “legal fiction” that there is a Constitutional right to an abortion. Anyone can read the US Constitution and easily confirm that the subject of abortion or reproductive rights is not mentioned at all. Since the federal government is given no authority over this subject in its enumerated powers in the US Constitution, this entire subject is a matter reserved to the states for their legislatures to act on (if they wish to do so at all). Even when the Roe v. Wade decision was made, one liberal member of the radical court that rendered that decision essentially admitted there was no specific Constitutional right to an abortion when he famously said that such a right was found only in the “penumbra” of the Constitution (see third link).
 
The mass killing of over 50,000,000 babies before (or just after they are born as these links indicate occurs) is a horrible sin in the modern USA in the eyes of God. The Old Testament repeatedly condemns the human/infant sacrifices that Baal-worshippers and Moloch-worshippers conducted as a rite of their malignant religion. In God’s eyes, I doubt there is any difference between killing babies just before or just after they are born. Abortion is infanticide, according to the words of the late-US Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, a Democrat (see second link).
 
The Bible indicates that there will be a judgment day in the future when all people will account to God for their lives. In judging our nation, it should be remembered that no US Congress ever voted for abortion. No president ever signed any bill into law allowing abortions. Abortion was forced on the USA by an out-of-control Supreme Court which brazenly usurped legislative powers and created a law directly from the Judicial branch, bypassing both the Legislative and Executive branches on the matter.
 
It may lead you to cry when you read about the alleged atrocities at this one particular abortion facility. Consider that over 50,000,000 abortions have reportedly been performed in the USA since Rowe v Wade was imposed on the nation. Again, it is my personal opinion that the God will hold the US Supreme Court justices who imposed abortion on the USA responsible for all the abortions done under their ruling. This would make these supreme court justices greater mass-murderers in God’s eyes than Pol Pot, Adolph Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao Tse-Dong, etc. Their Judgment day is coming. They are already responsible for over 50,000,000 “silent screams” in the wombs of the mothers whose babies are aborted, and the numbers of aborted lives grow every day.

Humanoid Robotic Soldiers Almost Here!

Friday, April 5th, 2013
This link is well worth reading and I urge you to watch both embedded videos (especially the second one).  The videos were sent to me by a knowledgeable source with access to DARPA project videos, and I’m sharing them with readers of this blog. The first video shows that DARPA has developed a robotic hand that can use handtools skillfully; however, that is nothing compared to the second video. The second video shows a humanoid robotic figure which can run, do calisthenics, etc. The calisthenics are complex and would be the kind done at a track team work-out or a military boot-camp.
 
Obviously, DARPA would not be releasing its state-of-the-art attainment of robotic humanoid development in a video accessible to the public, so their project accomplishments are surely far more advanced than what is on the video. DARPA is not doing this project for its own entertainment. I think the military applications of this project are both obvious and immense. When the humanoid robots are controlled via a wireless connection, they can be placed or parachuted into any environment and be remotely-controlled by an operator with a joystick and controls. Human operators a hemisphere away from an aerial drone can control an aerial military drone already with ease. Why couldn’t human operators control robotic soldier drones on the ground the same way?
 
Robotic soldiers would need no food or water and would have no fear. They could be “handled” to perform suicide missions, enter regions contaminated by chemical, bacteriological or radiation which would kill a human, etc. The robotic soldiers would be impervious to all these environmental hazards. One could coat them with flexible Kevlar “skin” so they would be essentially bullet-proof to small arms fire.
 
DARPA clearly has some brilliant engineers working on this project. I admire their skill. I only hope and pray that the robotic soldiers being developed will be controlled by patriotic, pro-American controllers.
 
Human-controlled robots are already fighting each other in combat matches on a cable-TV program I watched while channel-surfing the other day. Robots were fighting each other in a boxing ring/cage while their human controllers were controlling their movements with exoskeleton-like control systems placed on them. In other words, the robots were fighting as avatars, acting out movements dictated to them by their human controllers. If private parties are already doing this for entertainment purposes, imagine what DARPA is developing!
 
The emergence of robotic soldiers would fulfill several biblical prophecies. The first is in Genesis 11:6 which relates that the post-Flood generations were already re-developing the pre-Flood advanced technologies to a level where they had reached a “tipping point” where God observed that “nothing they imagine will be restrained from them.” In Matthew 24:37, Jesus Christ foretold that the latter days of our age in which we now live (see my article, Are We Living in the Latter Days?) would mirror the pre-Flood society and civilization. The development of technologies at Babel was so advanced that God had to step in and confuse the languages to stop its progression as his Divine will was that no such high-tech society would exist on earth again until the latter days just before Jesus Christ himself returns to rule the earth (Revelation 19:11-20:4). Revelation 17-18 prophesy that our current Babylon the Great global political/monetary system will collapse in the latter days and be replaced by a new global “beast” system (see my articles entitled, What Kind of “Captivity?”–The Babylonian Origin of the Modern Banking System and Is Babylon the Great about to Fall…Ushering in a Global “Beast” System? The Creator God has allotted a mere 42 months for the beast’s global system to exist before it is utterly and permanently destroyed by Jesus Christ himself at his return (Revelation 19:11-21). As this prophecy shows, any person or any soldier that dares to fight against the heavenly armies of Jesus Christ at his return will be annihilated and their flesh will be given to the birds and carrion-eaters to eat. [If you are a soldier and do not want to share that fate, I advise that you reject the beast's orders at that future time and fall on your knees and submit to Jesus Christ's Divine rule when he returns. Then you can live on into a real Utopia of peace that will literally be brought to this earth when heaven comes to govern this planet openly and powerfully!]
 
One more prophetic item about robotic soldiers. Revelation 13:1-5 foretells that when the beast system is imposed on the world’s nations and masses, the world will wonder at the beast’s power and say “Who is able to make war with him?” My blog has previously discussed the existence of nanotechnology bombs and weapons, invisibility technologies, aerial vehicles which are so advanced that they appear as UFOs to people at times, etc. Robotic soldiers are one more thing in the secret inventory of the beast’s weaponry that will suddenly be unveiled all at once and the world will react as prophesied in Revelation 13:4. Science fiction will become science fact (just as Genesis 11:6 and Matthew 24:37 prophesy). However…
 
There are two people who will have the power to overcome all the beast’s advanced weaponry as easy as if they were stomping on ants. These two people are called the Two Witnesses in Revelation 11, and they will be delegated Divine powers to smite the earth with plagues as often as they want (see verse 6). They will give the earth a tiny advance taste of the powers to be unleashed when Jesus Christ comes at the head of Heaven’s army of very real and powerful spirit beings to take absolute control of the earth’s governments, nations and peoples….for their own good and to save them from self-destruction (Matthew 24:22). Anyone who seeks to harm the Two Witnesses will take a death sentence upon themselves (Revelation 11:5). These Two Witnesses will prove to the earth that Jesus Christ is the true and only Savior and Ruler and they will make the Bible’s truths starkly real to the earth and all those living on it. Please read my article, The Two Witnesses, for a detailed look at their ministry.
 
So if you are a Christian/Messianic Believer, don’t live in fear. Whatever powers the beast system brings to bear will be “peanuts” compared to the powers the Two Witnesses will wield. Pity the beast’s poor underlings. They will get creamed when Revelation 11:5-6 is fulfilled. The world’s rulers have forgotten the Creator God who made all things and sees all that is done on the earth. The Two Witnesses will emerge on the scene as God’s “wake-up call” for the world to realize the Creator God is real and that all mankind needs to repent…while they still can.
 
It appears we may be on the verge of historic events happening which will fulfill major biblical, latter-day prophecies.

USSR’s Massive Holocaust vs. Christians

Monday, March 25th, 2013
A reader sent me this story and I decided to pass it on to all readers as this historical horror has been known to very few…until now. We all shake our heads at the atrocities and holocaust of perhaps a million people killed by Pol Pot amongst his own Cambodian population, the slaughter of 800,000 Rwandans in the Hutu holocaust vs. the Tutsis in an African tribal war (see the movie, Hotel Rwanda), and the slaughter of approximately 6 million Jews by Hitler and his Nazi madmen during World War II. The Nazis also killed large numbers of gypsies, Poles, the “mentally deficient”, political dissidents, etc. However, the first link tells of a recent forgotten Holocaust that was roughly twice the size of Hitler’s Holocaust.
 
The link states that approximately 12,000,000 Christians were slaughtered by the Soviet rulers during the reigns of Lenin, Stalin, etc. This horrific Holocaust largely has been unrealized by recent generations. Compared to the madness of these Soviet regimes, the current rule of Vladimir Putin (and his willingness to work with the Russian Orthodox Church) looks downright enlightened in comparison. The link also reports that millions of Moslems and Buddhists were also killed by the Soviets. It is hard for the mind to even comprehend such large numbers. I remember how moving it was for me to visit the Yad Vashem in Jerusalem in August 2000 and try to take in the immensity of Hitler’s Holocaust. One needs to double that total to reach the number of just the Christians killed by the Soviets. This number is roughly equivalent to the total populations of the American states of South Dakota, North Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Colorado, Nebraska, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Delaware.
 
Currently, the Russian Federation is suffering from a low birth rate and a declining population. If the Soviet Holocaust against its own people had not occurred, Russia would have had not only another 12 million people, but the combined increases of two or three more generations that they would have given birth to—perhaps almost 100 more million people by now. Russia is paying a terrible price for being ruled by atheist Soviet madmen.
 
One can only wonder how many millions were killed by Mao Tse-Dong and the Chinese Communist party successors over the last six decades in their Holocaust against their own people. That total may be worse than what happened to the Russians at the hands of their own Communist leaders.
 
When Jesus Christ prophesied in Matthew 24:9-10 of martyrdoms of Christians to occur in the latter days, we tend to forget that vast martyrdoms of Christians have already occurred. How many Christians have been killed in Nigeria, the Sudan, Pakistan and other Muslim nations in the last few decades?  In the comfortable USA and western world, we do not fully comprehend that the martyrdoms of vast numbers of Christians have already occurred in many places around the world. We assume that “it can’t happen here.” I hope and pray it doesn’t, but I would like to remind readers that a Holocaust of apocalyptic proportions has already happened (and is happening) here in the USA. 
 
It has been estimated that since Roe v. Wade made the killing of unborn babies legal in the USA, approximately 50,000,000 abortions have been performed in the USA through 2008 (see second link). This is over eight times the number of Jews killed by Hitler. It is over four times the number of Christians killed by the Soviet rulers of the USSR. In God’s eyes, the Supreme Court “justices” who imposed abortion on the USA (even though no US Congress ever voted for such a law and no president ever signed any such legislation into law and the US Constitution clearly does not convey any right to any abortion for anyone in it) may find in the future Judgment before God that they have far more blood on their hands than Hitler, Stalin, Lenin and Mao Tse-Dong combined… 
 
So Americans can’t say a Holocaust “can’t happen here.” It already has.

New Zealand Bank Deposits also at Risk (and Cyprus Update)

Friday, March 22nd, 2013
I wish to thank a reader who, after seeing my post on the very odd effort to seize insured bank deposits in Cyprus, alerted me to a possible similar situation in New Zealand. The first three links below are from a New Zealand blogsite which offers three posts with varying viewpoints on the same subject: that New Zealand’s bank deposits are also subject to being seized by government officials who may want to take such action to bail out big banks. Readers may read the three posts to evaluate the risks faced by people with money in New Zealand banks to the same kind of seizure of those bank deposits as was attempted in Cyprus.
 
As a follow-up to the Cyprus crisis regarding the attempted seizure of insured bank deposits there, I noticed a media story that the bank holiday in Cyprus has been extended until next Tuesday (see fourth link). This action argues that the banks apparently fear a large bank run as soon as the banks re-open due to fears that it is no longer safe to keep their money in banks. There is a particular fear that large amounts of Russian money will flee Cyprus’s banks as soon as they re-open.
 
The fifth link is a commentary by Nigel Farage, a British member of the European Parliament, on the banking crisis in Cyprus. I think you will find his comments most informative and interesting. One comment he makes is about the short-sightedness of whoever came up with this scheme to seize insured bank deposits in Cyprus. Mr. Farage states: “I cannot believe this (move to steal money) could have been thought through. Frankly, if you would have asked me on Friday before the announcement, ‘What’s the worst thing you could possibly do that would trigger a run on the banks?’ Well, that’s what they did.”  I agree with Mr. Farage’s comment. This link was also sent to me by an alert reader.

Banker Elites Stumble Badly in Cyprus Money Grab

Thursday, March 21st, 2013
Something very important has happened in Cyprus which may have many unintended consequences for the global bankers and financial/monetary elites. I think it has large biblical prophetic implications as well. I’m sure that readers have heard about the strange plan suddenly imposed on Cyprus’ bank depositors to have 6.75% of the citizens’ insured bank deposits confiscated to pay off Cyprus’ debts (apparently) to foreign banks. This was announced at the same time a bank closure of all banks in Cyprus was imposed for a reported four-day period. This set off a firestorm.
 
Until now, insured bank deposits were thought to be sacrosanct as a safe place to preserve money in all nations. However, this attempt to seize Cypriot depositors’ insured deposits set off warning bells all over the world that banks are not as safe a place to store money as people thought. If this could happen in a western world nation, it could happen anywhere. Initial reports that I heard were conflicting. Some said the IMF imposed this measure while others said Eurozone nations or EU banks were forcing the issue. I watched the Lawrence Kudlow program on CNBC and there was a discussion between Mr. Kudlow and various analysts that discussed whether this seizure attempt would trigger bank runs not only in Cyprus when their banks reopened but whether bank runs would also be triggered in such nations as Spain, Italy and other nations with deep debt problems. Their discussion included words such as “odd,” “out-of-the-blue” and “scary” to describe the attempted seizure of insured bank deposits on Cyprus. The Cypriot people rebelled against this action and Cyprus’ parliament overwhelmingly said “Hell No!” to the plan and refused to implement it. Some accounts focused on the major Russian connection to Cyprus’ banks and reports that large amounts of Russian money may be laundered or recycled via Cypriot banks. This brings Russia into this matter. Please read the links below which describe in depth the above-cited aspects of this story.
 
This attempt to seize a percentage of the insured bank deposits in an entire nation is a “shot heard round the world.” If the banker elites attempted this in one nation, what is to stop them from trying to do the same in any nation that has huge debt problems. The USA has huge debt problems as a nation. Could insured bank deposits in the USA be seized too some day? The banker elites did not think this action through at all in my opinion. They just gave everyone in every nation, sovereign wealth fund and large and small investors in the world a very good reason to not keep money in banks. Their own greedy action could trigger future bank runs which will end up damaging the very banks which attempted to have the insured deposits seized to pay Cyprus’ debts off to various banks. This strange seizure attempt also raises other far bigger worries. If even insured bank deposits can be seized by nations or large banks, what about other money pools which are supposedly “safe?” Could desperate national governments and large banks seek to have a percentage of stock portfolios in brokerage accounts seized? What about bond funds and mutual funds of all kinds? What about IRA funds? The action in Cyprus now raises the question in minds all over the world: What really is a safe investment any longer?”  This is a huge issue and the BBC and other media outlets covered it well, but I watched the evening news on ABC, NBC and CBS here in the USA and, switching back and forth between the channels, I didn’t hear a single word on their broadcasts about this massive story on the day it broke. This convinced me that “the word” had been given to keep as many Americans as possible from hearing about this story. Given the fact that Americans are the world’s biggest debtors, this story may have real significance for the future of every American. Are “insured” bank deposits anywhere safe any more?
 
There is also, I believe, more here than meets the eye. I think this unprecedented action is like the tip of an iceberg revealing that a titanic struggle is going on behind the scenes in the global financial world for dominance or, perhaps, even survival. That the EU, the IMF, large global banks and Russia are involved in this story means, to me, that much more is happening behind the scenes than the masses are being told. It also indicates to me that this attempted seizure of a large chunk of the insured deposits in Cyprus means that many nations and large banks are becoming much more desperate than they are admitting. This kind of action wouldn’t even be considered in “normal” financial times. It reeks of behind-the-scenes desperation.
 
One final note:  the IMF was reported to be either the instigator or a cooperative party in this seizure effort in various media stories. The media has just reported (see link six) that the private home of the Director of the IMF has just been raided by the French police. The link cites unrelated reasons for the raid, but I find the timing of the raid (just after the IMF was involved somehow in the attempted seizure of  a large percentage of the insured deposits of an entire nation) to indicate to me that the reported reason for the raid may just be a cover story. Great fissures are opening in the global financial system. Those of us in the masses are not privy to what all is really going on behind closed doors in the halls of power around the world.
 
In terms of biblical prophecy, this action indicates that we are growing ever closer to the fulfillment of the prophecy in Revelation 17-18 that the entire global system of world commerce and finance is going to collapse in the latter days of our age and be replaced by a new global financial/monetary system which will be enforced on all nations (Revelation 13:11-18). This will be the “beast” system and it will be imposed by the “seven heads and ten horns” (not yet identified) who will terminate the current system with “extreme prejudice” (according to the language of Revelation 17:16). For in-depth information on why the Bible calls our current system of global finance, based on and controlled by central banks and the global banking system, “Babylon the Great,” please see my article, What Kind of “Captivity?” – The Babylonian Origin of the Modern Banking System. I think you will find it most revealing.

Secretive Drone Just Misses Airliner Over New York

Wednesday, March 6th, 2013
My previous post was on the subject of the deployment of drones in US skies and it included a warning that this would involve the possibility of a catastrophic collision between a drone and a passenger aircraft.
 
As if on cue, CNN reported today that an unmanned drone over New York City came within 200 feet of colliding with an inbound passenger airliner from Italy. That is a near-miss by any standard! The FBI has launched an investigation into who the unmanned drone belonged to and how it got where it did. It was described as a black drone with four propellers on a fuselage not more than three feet across. This incident vividly demonstrates the accuracy of my statement in that previous post that drones will need to have transponders on them in order for FAA controllers to “see” them and avoid collisions with other aircraft.
 
Since CNN reports that only local police agencies and federal agencies are licensed to operate such drones, one comes to the inevitable conclusion that the drone belonged to a police unit or a federal agency whose careless use of the drone almost caused a collision with a passenger airliner. The other possibility is that it was operated by a team of potential terrorists from a foreign nation or entity, and that the drone was being used to scout potential sites for a terrorist attack. The public doesn’t know the truth yet, but it does highlight some important realities about using drones in US skies. One fact is that the more all kinds of drones are used in US skies, the greater the likelihood of a collision and major accident. The second fact is that the more drones are used in American skies, the easier it will be for hostile foreign nations, jihadi terrorists from Hezbollah sleeper cells or other terrorists backed by foreign nations to deploy their own drones over America and not have them officially noticed.
 
The first link cited in my previous post on this subject stated that 50 other nations have drones already although only the USA, Russia, China and Israel have drone-manufacturing facilities. That means if this unmanned drone over New York City wasn’t deployed by an American agency, it was almost certainly a Chinese- or Russian-made drone.
 
One more comment. My previous post included a National Geographic magazine article link which discussed tiny, experimental drones being developed by the US Air Force in a secret lab in Ohio. These tiny drones, disguised as hummingbirds, bugs or moths (or maybe even bats) are being designed to sneak up on a “man holding a gun and shoot him in the head.” These tiny drones being developed by the USAF under the aegis of the Obama administration are being designed (to use the language in the National Geographic magazine article) to be “pervasive and lethal.” I think all Americans would like to know where these drones are going to be deployed to fulfill their ”pervasive and lethal” mission?  Will they be deployed to foreign battlefields to attack American enemies or will they be deployed inside America against American civilians who happen to be “holding a gun?”
 
President Obama wants drones to be integrated into the FAA’s airspace management by September 30, 2015. Does Obama want to also deploy these “pervasive and lethal” drones inside America by that date? Congress better go back and look at their legislation on this matter and check the language of the bill to make sure it forbids the US government or any government agency or its agents or contractors from (A) using any lethal drones against US civilians and (B) using them in any manner that would violate any US Constitutional right. If you agree with me on this matter, you may want to forward this post to your friends and contact your Senator or congressional representative to check this question out.  
 
The Obama administration obviously is developing these lethal mini-drones to use against someone. Who is the “someone” they are preparing to kill?
 
Senators Rand Paul (R-KY), Ron Wyden (D-OR) and other senators are already concerned about the use of lethal force against US citizens via drones. They are partiopating in a filibuster against Obama’s CIA nominee re: the issue of Secretary of Justice Eric Holder leaving the door open regarding his belief that Obama could order the killing of US citizens via drones on US soil in certain circumstances (see second link). I suspect if the administration is “given an inch” in the ability to kill Americans on American soil with drones, they may “take a mile” in their justification of doing so in the future.
 
National Geographic magazine (hardly a fringe publication!) revealed the Obama administration is developing tiny lethal drones to approach people unobtrusively and kill them (see first link in my previous post). Who do you think the Obama administration is preparing to kill with these tiny, lethal drones? It is time for the Congress and the American people to demand some very serious answers from the president and his administration, and also to demand Congress write legislation to make it a crime to use these lethal drones against US citizens under any circumstance other than very tightly-limited situations such as wherein a kidnapper is shot to save a hostage, a terrorist is shot to prevent him from detonating an explosive, etc.  
 
Are we ever living in perilous times, as was prophesied for our current “latter days” (II Timothy 3:1)!

Drones in USA and Privacy Concerns

Saturday, March 2nd, 2013
I have posted to this blog before on the issue of aerial drones being deployed to monitor all kinds of activities within the domestic USA in future years. Important new information is included in this post on this subject.
 
The current issue of National Geographic has a major article on this subject and it examines what is good and not good about deploying drones within the USA. Drones have been effective as a military weapon overseas, but the subject of using drones within the USA raises obvious Constitutional and air safety concerns. President Obama has signed into law a bill directing the FAA to integrate aerial drones into US airspace by September 15, 2015, but many issues are yet to be resolved.
 
Some drones being developed are as small as “robotic moths and hummingbirds.” These could be deployed in all kinds of surveillance missions all over the nation. There are certainly excellent uses for such drones. It would be very beneficial to have federal law enforcement officials to have access to such unobtrusive drones if they are tracking and monitoring terrorists, “sleeper cells,” serial killers, kidnappers, looking for lost children, etc. Many non-law enforcement uses are also evident in agricultural contexts, media and police coverage of traffic accidents, etc. However, where do we draw the line between what is a Constitutional deployment of these drones and what is a violation of the 4th Amendment to the US Constitution against unreasonable search and seizures? I’m sure there will be a wave of court cases in the future deciding what circumstances must exist before law enforcement agencies can legally use drones to “search” a backyard, a business, or any private space.
 
There are also obvious safety concerns. With some drones being so small, it increases the likelihood of collisions with aircraft and helicopters. We know a bird strike can crash an airplane; what about the sucking of a drone into the engine of an aircraft or helicopter? If that happens and lives are lost, the drones are likely to be severely restricted in all usages. Will all drones carry transponders so FAA controllers can identify where they are in the domestic airspace? The National Geographic article states that “the safety record of military drones is not reassuring” due to the accident rate of drones, and it cites one incident where a 400 pound drone collided with a C-130 aircraft.
 
The article also notes that when Baghdad was occupied by US forces, every place in that city was under 24/7 aerial surveillance by drones. Is that what is coming to US cities and towns? The ACLU is already worried about such a thing happening with everyone’s privacy being lost. The ACLU sees a “nightmare scenario” in which authorities would be “combining drone video and cell phone tracking to build up databases of people’s routine comings and goings.” The article’s author adds that this scenario “doesn’t even include the possibility that police drones might be armed.” I don’t usually agree with the ACLU, but their concerns in this case seem justified. The first link also addresses the matter of some members of Congress beginning to question the use of drones in domestic police applications, and it also reveals that one Texas county last year already was equipped with a drone that could wield a grenade launcher and shotgun against people on the ground. To see what some of the small drones already built look like, be sure to click on the link “photo gallery” that accompanies the second link. Undoubtedly, future drones will look ever more like small birds, insects, etc. Indeed, the first link reveals the US Air Force already has a “micro-aviary” where realistic tiny drones are being developed to deploy drones which will appear as realistic “multi-legged bugs” which will be able to “swarm through alleys, crawl across windowsills, and perch on power lines.” One tiny drone is even being developed which “sneaks up on a scowling man holding a gun and shoots him in the head.” This US Air Force project is designed to produce drones which are “unobtrusive, pervasive and lethal.” Imagine that kind of weaponry in the hands of evil and totalitarian people! Hitler’s SS would have loved this kind of technology!
 
The third link offers a poll that 1/3rd of US citizens already fear the usage of drones by US police agencies and that a slightly larger group does not share that fear. However, the US public surely does not really understand this issue very well yet, and many are likely to be unaware of the issue at all. 
 
This issue is very germane to latter-day biblical prophecies. Revelation 13 prophesies that a final, global government will come into being just prior to the return of Jesus Christ to govern the earth for 1000 years (Revelation 20:1-4). Revelation 13:15-16 foretell that the final beast power will become a “control freak,” totalitarian power which will execute anyone who doesn’t worship the “image of the beast” and which will micromanage, monitor and control all financial transactions. While the usage of aerial drones will at first surely have many benign purposes, one can only imagine what uses this final totalitarian global system will find for using drone surveillance and weaponized drones to monitor and control the globe’s population. The widespread deployment of drones in civilian regions of the world’s nations would clearly set the stage for the emergence of the prophesied “beast” power. In the time of the beast’s reign, even staying indoors and closing your drapes will not protect you from “persistent surveillance.” By then, your cell phone or I-Pad may be listening to all your conversations and monitoring all your electronic communications, and a mechanical drone disguised as a realistic bird could hover outside your window with an infra-red detector which can monitor your every movement in your home.
 
Somehow, I’m uncomfortable with the US government developing little micro-drones the size of bugs which can fly up to anybody and shoot them in the head without any current legal framework to determine when such technology can be used. What about you? This kind of murderous drone technology needs very tight judicial and Constitutional controls on its use to make sure it is only used against terrorists, kidnappers holding hostages, etc.or in military applications of taking out enemy sentries. Perhaps this technology is already being tested in Afghanistan by US military personnel against the Taliban or by intelligence operatives in undisclosed locations.
 
Polls show hardly anyone approves of the current US Congress. Do you trust Congress to properly regulate this kind of technology?
 
Sleep well.
