<p><strong>Communications Now Monitored</strong></p>
<p>The time has come, and now, for the population of the UK, there is no more pretense.  We are no longer free to communicate as we wish, without facing, as yet, unknown consequences.</p>
<p><strong>All Anti-Terrorist Laws Abused </strong></p>
<p>As anti-terrorist laws are now commonly abused by the state, so we can only wait for the first abuses of this E.U. legislation to be rolled out and be used to intimidate anyone who may still have a few brain cells of their own in good working order.</p>
<p>It is imperative that we remain calm in the face of this onslaught. Remember that civil disturbances will provide the ammunition for martial law, it would be playing into manipulative hands.</p>
<p>All relevant legislation is in place, but thankfully the G20 London protesters weren&#8217;t fooled by &#8216;<em>agent provocateurs</em>&#8216; working from within who might easily have tipped the balance enough to require the intervention of martial law.</p>
<p>Long may it remain so.</p>
<p><strong> Your Decision</strong></p>
<p>In the short term all UK ISP users need to decide how they will deal with the situation.</p>
<p>It is possible to change providers to those outside E.U. jurisdiction, as I imagine any terrorist will certainly do, but it will only be a stopgap as other countries will soon comply. If they are not secretly monitoring already. The American government has long held this capability, the software is available to all.</p>
<p>The piece below is from &#8216;The Independent&#8217; a newspaper, frequently used to test public opinion. There were some comments, but not enough to worry the government. This will slide effortlessly into operation, and no-one will pay attention until they are subjected to an intimidating interview with unknown results.</p>
<p><strong>Personal web data to be stored for a year</strong></p>
<p class="tagline">New law forces service providers to record all your calls and emails from Monday</p>
<p class="clear-f">             <author> 					By Robert Verkaik, Law editor</author></p>
<p class="info"><em>Saturday, 4 April 2009</em></p>
<p class="body font-null">The mobile calls, emails and website visits of every person in Britain will be stored for a year under sweeping new powers which come into force on Monday. Privacy campaigners warned last night that the information would be used by the Government to create a giant &#8220;Big Brother&#8221; super-database containing a map of everyone&#8217;s private life.</p>
<p>The new powers will, for the first time, place a legal duty on internet companies to store private information, including email traffic and website browsing histories.</p>
<p>Although the new retention powers will not permit the storage of the content of emails or phone calls it will show details such as IP addresses, date, time and user telephone numbers. Under the terms of the EU directive, the Home Office has written to leading internet service providers and phone companies offering to compensate them for the costs incurred in retaining the data for a year.</p>
<p>A spokesman for the Internet Service Providers Association confirmed that the leading ISPs had received written orders from the Home Office setting out their obligations under the new rules.</p>
<p>Phil Booth of the civil rights campaign group, NOID, said: &#8220;Inch by inch, the Government&#8217;s plans to map and monitor everyone&#8217;s communications are creeping into place. Today it&#8217;s retention of data, soon it&#8217;ll be a giant database to suck it all up. And unless we speak out and stop this, what used to be private – details of your relationships and personal interests – will end up in the ever-widening control of the stalker state.&#8221;</p>
<p>Last week the The Independent reported that millions of Britons who use social networking sites such as <em>Facebook</em> could soon have their every move monitored by the Government and saved on a &#8220;Big Brother&#8221; database.</p>
<p>Then ministers faced a civil liberties outcry over the plans, with accusations of excessive snooping on the private lives of law-abiding citizens. Others fear the risk of security breaches. &#8220;Quite clearly, this new legislation opens up a whole can of worms for the ISPs when it comes to potential security implications,&#8221; said Neil Cook, a security expert with the internet data protection firm Cloudmark.</p>
<p>The Government has twice postponed publication of a new data communications Bill in which ministers will set out their plans for a centrally controlled database. A Home Office spokesman said: &#8220;If we do not make changes now to maintain existing capabilities, the law enforcement, security and intelligence agencies will no longer be able to use this data in the future.&#8221;</p>
<p>He added: &#8220;It is the Government&#8217;s priority to protect public safety and national security. That is why we are completing the implementation of this directive, which will bring the UK in line with our European counterparts. Communications data plays a vital part in a wide range of criminal investigations. Without communications data, resolving crimes such as the Rhys Jones murder would be very difficult if not impossible.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/snow-world.jpg" title="snow-world.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/snow-world.thumbnail.jpg" title="snow-world.jpg" alt="snow-world.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a>Winter in the U.K. is vicious, with constant reports of snow disruption and electricity black outs. Many other countries are suffering too, but we must listen to the BBC because they are impartial and tell it like it is.</p>
<p>They continue to fulfill their roll as  apologists for anthropogenic (human made) global warming.</p>
<p>Those that believe and follow the high priest Al Gore have been dubbed  &#8216;Gorebots&#8217;, they hang on to their programming in an effort to convince themselves that they are right, as it would be too painful to admit that there are governments that might not have their best interests at heart.</p>
<p>Whilst <em>I</em> may agree with the following article, which is succinctly written and factual, follow up with your own research, dig a little deeper and you will soon find out who benefits from persuading huge swathes of population to follow their leaders.</p>
<p>Start here:-</p>
<p><strong>Written by Ed Hiserodt published in &#8216;<a href="http://www.thenewamerican.com/tech-mainmenu-30/environment/759#" title="Watever Happened to Global Warming">The New American</a>&#8216;<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong> Thursday, 05 February 2009 00:46</strong></p>
<p>Now that record-cold temperatures across the globe are making a mockery of human-caused global warming, we look to see if this is merely a &#8220;weather hiccup.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong><em>Judge:</em></strong><em> Counselor, do you have anything to say before I pronounce sentence on the accused?</em></p>
<p><em><strong>Attorney:</strong> Yes, your honor. Might I remind you that the victim my client was accused of murdering showed up earlier and is very much alive, sitting there in the front row?</em></p>
<p><em><strong>Judge:</strong> Sir, this court does not deal in trivialities.</em></p>
<p><em><strong>Attorney:</strong> But your honor, I&#8217;d respectfully suggest that since there is no victim, there has been no crime and my client is obviously innocent.</em></p>
<p><em><strong>Judge:</strong> Counselor, you are very close to being in contempt of this court. I am the one who determines guilt or innocence here and your client is going to hang.</em></p>
<p><em><strong>Attorney:</strong> But judge &#8230;</em></p>
<p>In 1970, I recall New Orleans schoolchildren taking a 185-mile field trip to Jackson, Mississippi, so students might experience something they had never seen before: snow. This year they didn&#8217;t have to bother, as Southern Louisiana was blanketed with four inches of the white stuff, the first major snow in 45 years, and only two inches shy of the all-time record of six inches set in 1895. It was also the earliest snow since record keeping began in 1850.</p>
<p>Not to be outdone, Las Vegas checked in with what local meteorologist Jerome Jacquest said was the most snow since 1979. With no snow removal or de-icing equipment, the airport was closed along with most roads. Gambling, however, was not affected.</p>
<p>Snow wasn&#8217;t the only problem. Freezing temperatures in Denver set a new low of minus 18, eclipsing a record from 1901. White Sulfur Springs, Montana, reported 29 below, shredding the previous record mark of minus 17, set in 1922. For the week of December 15, 2008 alone, HAM Weather Service reports 1,537 record low temperatures in the United States and 1,110 record snowfalls — not exactly what one would expect while on the way to climate catastrophe owing to global warming.</p>
<p>Weather watchers know this isn&#8217;t just an anomaly or freak occurrence. For the past 10 years, the summers have been cooler and the winters more severe. In Little Rock, for example, a chart in the newspaper shows there have been five consecutive months with average temperatures below normal. Since Little Rock is situated near the geographical center of the country, one would suspect that this is not an unusual condition, and indeed, such a suspicion is borne out by satellite measurements that cover the entire globe and are not subject to the &#8220;urban heat island&#8221; effect that has been shown to add as much as 10°F to recording stations in urban areas as compared to rural counterparts. An NBC crew sent out to show the Northwest Passage was ice free had their icebreaker stranded for three weeks because of thick ice.</p>
<p>With such obvious disputations of &#8220;global warming,&#8221; one might also suspect that the convictions of some honest, objective members of the weather establishment would begin to waver — after seeing the victim alive and sitting in the courtroom.</p>
<p><strong>Tip of the Iceberg</strong></p>
<p>And in fact, it is apparent that more than just a few experts are wavering. When the news was reported of a British court announcing that Al Gore&#8217;s <em>An Inconvenient Truth</em> was unfit for school &#8220;because it is politically biased and contains scientific inaccuracies and sentimental mush,&#8221; CNN meteorologist Rob Marciano — who was off-camera preparing to give the weather report — applauded and said, &#8220;Finally, finally!&#8221; He was particularly incensed that Gore blamed Hurricane Katrina on anthropogenic (human-caused) global warming (AGW). During the period of December marked by low temperatures, mentioned above, CNN severe-weather expert Chad Meyer commented during <em>Lou Dobbs Tonight</em>, &#8220;You know, to think we could affect weather all that much is pretty arrogant.&#8221;</p>
<p>In a July 18, 2008 widely circulated article entitled &#8220;No Smoking Hot Spot,&#8221; Australian Greenhouse Office scientist David Evans came out of the global-warming skeptics&#8217; closet. Although having written the carbon accounting model used to measure Australia&#8217;s compliance with the Kyoto Protocol, Evans was wrestling with a problem: <em>the greenhouse-gas signature is missing</em>. If CO<sub>2</sub> is the cause of global warming, then it must be absorbing solar energy and warming the air, which in turn warms the surface. Both alarmists and skeptics agree that all models predict a &#8220;hot spot&#8221; at 10 kilometers above the tropics. But there is no such hot spot. Quoting Evans:</p>
<p style="margin-left: 40px">We have been measuring the atmosphere for decades using radiosondes — weather balloons with thermometers that radio back the temperature as the balloon ascends through the atmosphere. They show no hot spot. Whatsoever. If there is no hot spot, then an increased greenhouse effect is not the cause of global warming. So we know for sure that carbon emissions are not a significant cause of the global warming. If we had found the greenhouse signature, then I would be an alarmist again.</p>
<p><strong>The Rest of the Iceberg</strong></p>
<p>A U.S. Senate minority report entitled <em>More Than 650 International Scientists Dissent Over Man-Made Global Warming Claims</em>, subtitled <em>Scientists Continue to Debunk &#8220;Consensus&#8221; in 2008</em>, was released on December 11, 2008. [The U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works has made available a downloadable PDF of the full report at their minority website <a href="http://epw.senate.gov/minority/" target="_blank">http://epw.senate.gov/minority/</a>. Click on "White Papers and Reports"; the PDF is listed as "Senate Minority Report 2."] These 650 dissenting scientists are more than 12 times the 52 government-supported scientists who gave us the 2007 Summary for Policy Makers — the abbreviated version of the climate assessment by the UN&#8217;s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) — to which the major media looks adoringly for news about global warming. (There were, however, diplomats from 115 countries aiding the IPCC, making sure the warnings produced the greatest gloom and fear.)</p>
<p>The Senate report includes names, biographies, academic institutional affiliations, and quotes from hundreds of international scientists who have publicly dissented against man-made climate fears. Here are a few condensed remarks typical of the group as a whole:</p>
<p>• &#8220;I am a skeptic&#8230;. Global warming has become a new religion.&#8221; — Nobel Prize winner for Physics, Ivar Giaever.</p>
<p>• &#8220;Since I am no longer affiliated with any organization nor receiving any funding, I can speak quite frankly&#8230;. As a scientist I remain skeptical&#8230;. The main basis of the claim that man&#8217;s release of greenhouse gases is the cause of the warming is based almost entirely upon climate models. We all know the frailty of models concerning the air-surface system.&#8221; — Atmospheric scientist Dr. Joanne Simpson, the first woman in the world to receive a Ph.D. in meteorology, and formerly of NASA, who has authored more than 190 studies and has been named &#8220;among the most preeminent scientists of the last 100 years.&#8221;</p>
<p>• Warming fears are the &#8220;worst scientific scandal in &#8230; history&#8230;. When people come to know what the truth is, they will feel deceived by science and scientists.&#8221; — UN IPCC Japanese scientist Dr. Kiminori Itoh, an award-winning Ph.D. environmental physical chemist.</p>
<p>• &#8220;The IPCC has actually become a closed circuit; it doesn&#8217;t listen to others. It doesn&#8217;t have open minds&#8230;. I am really amazed that the Nobel Peace Prize has been given on scientifically incorrect conclusions by people who are not geologists.&#8221; — Indian geologist Dr. Arun D. Ahluwalia of Punjab University, a board member of the UN-supported International Year of the Planet.</p>
<p>• &#8220;So far, real measurements give no ground for concern about a catastrophic future warming.&#8221; — Scientist Dr. Jarl R. Ahlbeck, a chemical engineer at Abo Akademi University in Finland, author of 200 scientific publications, and former Greenpeace member.</p>
<p>• &#8220;Anyone who claims that the debate is over and the conclusions are firm has a fundamentally unscientific approach to one of the most momentous issues of our time.&#8221; — Solar physicist Dr. Pal Brekke, senior adviser to the Norwegian Space Centre in Oslo. Brekke has published more than 40 peer-reviewed scientific articles on the sun and solar interaction with the Earth.</p>
<p>• &#8220;It is a blatant lie put forth in the media that makes it seem there is only a fringe of scientists who don&#8217;t buy into anthropogenic global warming.&#8221; — U.S. Government atmospheric scientist Stanley B. Goldenberg of the Hurricane Research Division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.</p>
<p>• &#8220;For how many years must the planet cool before we begin to understand that the planet is not warming? For how many years must cooling go on?&#8221; — Geologist Dr. David Gee, the chairman of the science committee of the 2008 International Geological Congress who has authored 130-plus peer-reviewed papers, and is currently at Uppsala University in Sweden.</p>
<p>• &#8220;The &#8216;global warming scare&#8217; is being used as a political tool to increase government control over American lives, incomes and decision making. It has no place in the Society&#8217;s activities.&#8221; — Award-winning NASA astronaut/geologist and moonwalker Jack Schmitt, who flew on the Apollo 17 mission and is formerly of the Norwegian Geological Survey and the U.S. Geological Survey.</p>
<p><strong>International Panel on Climate Change</strong></p>
<p>The IPCC, the entity that has generated the go-to documents that politicians and most media turn to for global-warming proclamations, doesn&#8217;t have the credibility of the dissenters. The IPCC was formed in 1988 by the United Nations and the World Meteorological Organization. It is a single-purpose, single-interest organization. The entire reason for the IPCC&#8217;s being is to provide evidence for anthropogenic global warming. Had it not been for the IPCC&#8217;s activities, it is unlikely you would have ever heard the terms &#8220;global warming&#8221; or &#8220;climate change.&#8221;</p>
<p>The IPCC has issued four &#8220;assessments&#8221; about the likelihood of AGW — in 1991, 1996, 2001, and 2007 — and the likely effects around the world should catastrophic warming occur. These assessments are typically 800 pages or so in length and (except for the last one) without indices, making them virtually worthless for any but the most dedicated reader. But one might not bother reading them anyway, as the importance of the reports is completely eclipsed by the &#8220;Summary for Policy Makers&#8221; (SPM) — or as some would suggest, Summary <em>by</em> Policy Makers. This document is what is released to the media and, as we shall see, is often quite different from the report itself.</p>
<p>Let us look at how the IPCC &#8220;Summary for Policy Makers&#8221; handled the assessments written by committees of scientists. The following are statements from the original document of the second IPCC report (1996), which had been approved by the scientific writers&#8217; committees. The first statement says: &#8220;None of the studies cited above has shown clear evidence that we can attribute the observed (climate) changes to the specific cause of increases in greenhouse gases.&#8221;</p>
<p>That&#8217;s pretty clear, so how about this one: &#8220;No study to date has positively attributed all or part (of climate change observed to date) to anthropogenic (manmade) causes.&#8221;</p>
<p>There&#8217;s not any waffling there, so let&#8217;s look at one more: &#8220;Any claims of positive change of significant climate change are likely to remain controversial until uncertainties in the total nature variability of the climate system are reduced.&#8221;</p>
<p>As Al Gore would say, that is &#8220;UN-EE-QUIV-o-cal.&#8221;</p>
<p>Yet the three statements above were removed by the political influences, and in their place was substituted: &#8220;The balance of evidence suggests a discernible human influence on global climate.&#8221;</p>
<p>The late Professor Frederick Seitz, the former president of the National Academy of Sciences, in a June 12, 1996 letter to the <em>Wall Street Journal</em>, accused the IPCC of censoring the scientific content of the assessment report to agree with a position favored by bureaucrats, governments, and NGOs. Said Seitz: &#8220;I have never witnessed a more disturbing corruption of the re-review process than the events that led to this IPCC report.&#8221;</p>
<p>The bias of the IPCC was established by the lead editor of the first three IPCC reports, Sir John Houghton, who set the tone for the organization with the statement, &#8220;Unless we announce disaster, no one will listen.&#8221; If you&#8217;ve been hired by the United Nations to provide evidence of global warming, you can&#8217;t be pussyfooting around with statements that suggest it is not only unproven but well might not be happening at all. One is certainly comforted by such objectivity.</p>
<p><strong>The IPCC and the Temperature Record</strong></p>
<p>There is general agreement that the last ice age ended about 12,000 years ago. With the temperature some 20°F below today&#8217;s norms and continuing that way for about 100,000 years, some 400 feet of the oceans&#8217; depth evaporated, fell as snow, was compressed into ice and covered the Northern United States to an estimated depth of one mile. With intermittent backslides and pauses, the Earth has generally been warming since that time. Yet the warming alarmists would have us believe that the warming that we have experienced recently is unprecedented, human-caused, and likely catastrophic. Oh really?</p>
<p>About 7,000 years ago, a warm period known as the Holocene Optimum coincided with the time that agriculture arose worldwide that, in turn, ushered in the Bronze Age. It is a period the IPCC simply ignores, as temperatures then were much warmer than their worst predictions under CO2-generated warming, yet catastrophe did not ensue. Polar bears had been around for the previous 190,000 years and survived the Holocene Optimum quite nicely, thank you very much.</p>
<p>After a few ups and downs, another warm period called the Roman Optimum is considered by historians to be a large factor in the rise of the Roman civilization, as society had the ability to produce more food than required to sustain the farmers, thus allowing others to construct the infrastructure of roads, buildings, and aqueducts upon which the empire was built. The Dark Ages, on the other hand, may not have been dark, but they were cold.</p>
<p>Then warmth came back in the form of what we call the Medieval Warm Period in about 950 A.D., known by historians as the Age of the Cathedrals. The Medieval Warm Period presents problems for alarmists because it can&#8217;t be simply ignored. It is easy to prove that it was warmer than today. Not only do temperature proxies such as ice cores show it, but the flourishing Viking civilization on Greenland confirms it. Land that today is frozen solid then supported cattle, pigs, sheep, and goats for the &#8220;settlers.&#8221;</p>
<p>Existence of the Greenland civilization is a source of embarrassment to the global warmers as it leads to a logical inconsistency:</p>
<p>Q. Was Greenland warmer during the period 950 A.D. to 1450 A.D. than it is today?</p>
<p>A. Without question. Crops and pastures were grown where today is permanently frozen ground.</p>
<p>Q. Could this be a localized temperature anomaly?</p>
<p>A. Only if such an anomaly can stay around for approximately 500 years.</p>
<p>Q. Were port cities such as London and Venice flooded by high sea levels during this period of high temperatures — temperatures several degrees higher than today?</p>
<p>A. No. [The Tower of London was built in 1078 A.D. on the north bank of the River Thames, a few feet above the high tide mark. Today it remains a few feet above the high tide mark.]</p>
<p>Q. So why would one expect them to be flooded today if temperatures rose considerably, to the level that would allow agriculture again in Greenland?</p>
<p>A. Duh. Because Al Gore said so?</p>
<p>Sadly for our ancestors, the warm climate didn&#8217;t last. Europe experienced a prolonged cold, wet spell, causing crop failures and famine. Always being on the verge of starvation resulted in a general weakness that is thought to have prolonged and exacerbated the &#8220;black death,&#8221; which killed approximately half of Europe&#8217;s population. This cool period — from which many climatologists consider the Earth to be still emerging — is known as the Little Ice Age. It too is a difficult period to explain away, as there are records of &#8220;frost fairs&#8221; on the Thames in London from the early 1600s to 1814, with ice on the order of 11 inches thick supporting tents, wagons, and even a visiting elephant. Since temperatures obviously have been increasing for several hundred years, is it so unusual for them to still be increasing? (Except that they&#8217;re not.)</p>
<p>In North America the weather was cold enough for New York harbor to freeze so that one could walk from Manhattan to Staten Island. During the Civil War, army reports indicated that in Little Rock, for several weeks each year, wagon teams could cross the iced-over Arkansas River, something no one alive today has ever seen.</p>
<p>The period between about 1645 and 1715 was particularly cold and coincides with the Maunder Minimum, where only about 50 sunspots appeared, compared to an expectation of from 40,000 to 50,000. (More sunspots mean greater solar activity. See sidebar on page 16.)</p>
<p>Summing up, the Medieval Warm Period was far warmer than the temperatures global-warming alarmists expect us to reach, without any of the catastrophes predicted by alarmists, and the Little Ice Age clearly shows that Earth had a cold spell from which it has been warming for some 200 years, benefiting plant, animal, and human existence on Earth. Enter the &#8220;hockey stick.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>The Hockey Stick</strong></p>
<p>The term &#8220;hockey stick&#8221; refers to the shape of a 1998 graph of temperature versus time as displayed by global warmers Michael Mann, Raymond Bradley, and Malcom Hughes. It performs several amazing functions for the alarmists, namely:</p>
<p>• Eliminates the Medieval Warm Period;</p>
<p>• Eliminates the Little Ice Age; and</p>
<p>• Shows recent temperatures to be rising catastrophically.</p>
<p>It was a blessing for the IPCC and, according to Christopher Monckton — writer and producer of the informative and entertaining video <em>Apocalypse? NO!</em> [<em>Apocalypse? NO!</em> is available from the Science &amp; Public Policy Institute, <a href="http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/" target="_blank">http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/</a>.] — the hockey stick was used in full color no fewer than six times in the 2001 IPCC assessment report.</p>
<p>Unfortunately for Mann et al., two Canadians were suspicious of their results and finally were able to obtain sufficient information to challenge the methodology that produced the &#8220;convenient&#8221; graph. Businessman Steven McIntyre and economist Ross McKitrick examined the construction and use of the data set of proxies for past climate that Mann had used to estimate the temperature from 1400 to 1980 and found collation errors, unjustified truncation and extrapolation, use of obsolete data, and calculation mistakes.</p>
<p>Global alarmists challenged the challengers, and the matter was taken to the Academy of Sciences and to a panel headed by Edward Wegman of George Mason University, commissioned by the U.S. Congress. Both referees found in favor of McIntyre over Mann. The Wegman panel fully endorsed the findings of McIntyre and McKitrick. &#8220;The NAS panel,&#8221; as Christopher Horner puts it in <em>The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming</em>, &#8220;specifically repudiated three-fourths of Mann&#8217;s record, specifically accused the IPCC of misrepresentation, and specifically accused the Mann team of down-playing historical uncertainties.&#8221; Nonetheless, the once-proud and respected <em>Nature</em> magazine brazenly opined, &#8220;Academy affirms hockey-stick graph.&#8221;</p>
<p>All of these investigations had been completed and were well known by early summer of 2006. Nonetheless, Gore&#8217;s <em>An Inconvenient Truth</em>, not released until late November 2006, used the hockey stick as the centerpiece of his argument.</p>
<p><strong>Goodbye Free-market Capitalism</strong></p>
<p>If the IPCC and internationalists everywhere were content to let global warming remain an object of discussion and monitoring, its pronouncements would likely inspire the same type of humor as that elicited by an eccentric old uncle who tells about inventing the light bulb and sailing on the <em>Titanic</em>, but such is not the case. They want (demand) worldwide changes &#8211; decreasing levels of CO<sub>2</sub> emissions through a worldwide cap-and-trade system for CO<sub>2</sub>. It is difficult to imagine any policy more destructive to our economy than &#8220;cap and trade.&#8221; Today&#8217;s bailouts are horrid and give government an equity stake in businesses — about as socialist as you can get. But &#8220;cap and trade&#8221; would gut the very system that has made the United States the wealthiest country in the world.</p>
<p>While there are a number of plans under discussion, most have the same basic elements:</p>
<p>• The government, or governments, would issue &#8220;carbon certificates&#8221; allowing a commercial or industrial user to consume a specified amount of carbon-based fuel. [Programs to extend this to individuals are already well underway in EU countries.] The total amount would be <em>less than the currently used amount</em>, making these instruments instantly valuable. If, for example, a manufacturer desired to expand or continue production (since the number of existing credits would be continually reduced to meet some Kyoto-type protocol), he would be required to purchase them from another manufacturer or on &#8220;the open market.&#8221;</p>
<p>• The &#8220;open market&#8221; — the reason Ken Lay and Enron were such fans of global-warming alarmism — could be anywhere in the world. A self-coronated potentate from Cowabunga, Africa, might sell the credits he is given by an international body for <em>not</em> destroying a rain forest (formerly known as a jungle) to an American entrepreneur who wanted to open a shoestring repair business. Or an up-and-coming corporate executive might see a huge profit from moving his manufacturing plant to a Third World country (with no carbon certificate requirements), benefiting nicely from sales of the carbon credits obtained by closing his U.S.-based manufacturing plant.</p>
<p>The possibilities for corruption are endless. It would make all U.S. enterprises beggars to controllers of the carbon-credit apparatus. Carbon producers would become de jure criminals, and de facto criminals would become rich and powerful. Competition for the ever-decreasing credits would increase their value and the power the issuers had over our entire energy-dependent economy.</p>
<p><strong>But in Our Arsenal &#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Saving the day may be a new organization, the NIPCC — the NON-Governmental International Panel on Climate Change. It has hundreds of scientists with varying backgrounds to show its objectivity. With bulldog Dr. S. Fred Singer at the helm, one should feel confident that the position of skeptics to climatic catastrophe will be well upheld.</p>
<p>Underpinning the global realism rebellion is the Petition Project of the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine. Now with signed petitions from over 31,000 scientists with a minimum of a bachelor&#8217;s degree, but including over 9,000 Ph.D.s, it is a force to be reckoned with now and in the future as the battle lines are drawn between skeptics and alarmists. For more information or to check on qualifications go to <a href="http://www.petitionproject.org/" target="_blank">www.petitionproject.org</a>.</p>
<p>If you want to hear from the finest minds on the subject of climate change, you should hurry to make reservations for the 2009 International Conference on Climate Change sponsored by the Heartland Institute in New York City on March 8-10. For the second year, TNA plans to be there for interviews with national and international speakers.

<p><strong>Humor: Bane of the Absurd</strong></p>
<p>More and more people worldwide are asking, &#8220;Hey, I&#8217;m freezing my buns off and the weather is getting cooler every year. But I&#8217;m going to have to change my lifestyle and reduce my standard of living because 52 scientist-lackeys say that carbon dioxide is causing global warming? Give me a break.&#8221; The emperor has no clothes, and it&#8217;s up to us to reinforce what is already known. Let us take every opportunity to ask, &#8220;Whatever Happened to Global Warming?&#8221; and at the same time point out that it&#8217;s not a sin against the planet to drive an SUV or burn a peat bog. And — one last fact — in geologic time, our present level of CO<sub>2</sub> is relatively low compared to earlier levels that were some 12 times the amount of concern to alarmists. Plants were very happy then, and oceans didn&#8217;t boil away. Remember, plants thrive on CO<sub>2</sub> — &#8220;Trees Love SUVs.&#8221;</p>
<hr /><big><strong>Not So Fun in the Sun</strong></big><span style="font-style: italic">How</span><em> Solar Activity Affects Temperatures</em><em> on Earth</em>If CO<sub>2</sub> didn&#8217;t cause the warming we experienced through the 1990s, what did cause it? In 1801 astronomer William Herschel, discoverer of the planet Uranus and of infrared radiation, is said to have predicted the price of grain from counting the number of observable sunspots. When the sunspots increased, the weather warmed and the price of grain came down. During periods of low activity, the weather cooled, crops diminished, and the price rose. The relationship between solar activity and temperature has been noted for years, but the increase in solar irradiance can be shown to be too small to account for significant changes in temperature. However, the correlation was far too close to be coincidental and is a far better correlation to Earth&#8217;s temperature record than CO<sub>2</sub> as a climate forcing agent. It seems we were looking in the wrong direction. In 2004, Nir Shaviv and Jan Vetzer of the Hebrew University showed empirical evidence that &#8220;cosmic ray flux&#8221; had an impact on climate variability.Though increases and decreases in solar irradiance wouldn&#8217;t directly produce Earth&#8217;s measured temperature changes, solar activity appears to have an indirect effect. A supernova sends out swarms of cosmic rays (mostly protons and electrons) that cause small particles in our atmosphere to attract one another, becoming nuclei for cloud formations high in the atmosphere. During periods of high solar activity, solar winds and magnetic fields act to block these cosmic intruders and prevent the formation of clouds. As high clouds reflect sunlight, preventing their formation increases the radiation reaching the surface and increases the global temperature. In other words, high solar activity, evidenced by sunspots, disrupts cloud formation, thus allowing more solar heating of the Earth.The &#8217;90s were a period of high solar activity, but this has slowed down. In fact, it has virtually stopped. The total solar irradiance, as reported by NASA&#8217;s David Hathaway, is at the lowest point on record — although the record is only a few decades long. Furthermore, sunspots migrate across the sun as the sunspot (solar) cycle matures. Usually a new sunspot cycle would have already been active by this time — but it hasn&#8217;t started. This is very bad news for the global-warming alarmists, as the data show this is the precursor of a cooling trend. Actually, it is not such good news for skeptics either, as colder weather is much more dangerous and uncomfortable than warmer weather for many reasons. Personally, I&#8217;m not a big fan of driving a team of horses across a frozen Arkansas River.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="subheadline_body">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="subheadline_body"><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/drama-triangle.jpg" title="drama-triangle.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/drama-triangle.thumbnail.jpg" title="drama-triangle.jpg" alt="drama-triangle.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a></p>
<p class="subheadline_body"><em><strong>Simple Is Easy To Understand </strong></em></p>
<p class="subheadline_body">There is a simple diagram designed to analyse the positions that human beings decide to adopt throughout their lives.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body">By using this diagram, the way that any person or country behaves, is shown to be what it truly is, a game.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body"><em><strong> A World Without Entertainment</strong></em></p>
<p class="subheadline_body">Without these games there would be no theatre, television drama, fictional novels or wars. As all these games depend on people or countries taking a position on this model.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body">The diagram is in the shape of a triangle. (<em>see above</em>) There are 3 positions, and the triangle shape allows the positions to be plotted as they occur, as change occurs quickly, whether by person or country.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body">Stephen Karpman (<a href="http://www.healingsimplicity.com/articles.html" target="_blank" title="Drama Triangle Pdf. linkhealingsimplicity">Pdf. download</a>), a student of Eric Berne devised the model. (You can find a link to Berne&#8217;s &#8216;Games People Play&#8217; on the sidebar should you be interested.)</p>
<p class="subheadline_body">The 3 positions are:</p>
<ol>
<li>Persecutor</li>
<li>Rescuer or Helper</li>
<li>Victim</li>
</ol>
<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/princessdidm_154x100thumbnail.jpg" title="princessdidm_154×100thumbnail.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/princessdidm_154x100thumbnail.thumbnail.jpg" title="princessdidm_154×100thumbnail.jpg" alt="princessdidm_154×100thumbnail.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a>I wrote 3 articles on another blog ..<br />
<a href="http://liveholistically.com/diana-princess-of-wales-the-drama-triangle-part-1/" title="Diana Princess of Wales: The Drama Triangle part 1">http://www.liveholistically.com</a> analysing the life of Princess Diana as she moved from one position to another.</p>
<p><em><strong>Countries Play Too</strong></em></p>
<p>It isn&#8217;t just for people&#8217;s games that this model is useful, countries play the same games, and the citizens of the countries often play the Victim&#8217;s game.</p>
<p><em><strong>The Three Positions </strong></em></p>
<p>Let&#8217;s look at the 3 positions more closely:</p>
<ul>
<li>The Persecutor puts other people down and belittles them</li>
<li>Rescuer or sometimes knows as Helper takes a superior position. This position has to help others because they are not good enough to help themselves</li>
<li>Victim, a self explanatory position, always in need of help because unable to survive without the rescuer.</li>
</ul>
<p>If a country sees itself as a Victim, then it needs a Persecutor to inflict pain, or the Rescuer wouldn&#8217;t need to step in and help.</p>
<p><em><strong>The Example Of Israel</strong></em></p>
<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/schoolboy.jpg" title="schoolboy.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/schoolboy.thumbnail.jpg" title="schoolboy.jpg" alt="schoolboy.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a>I f we take Israel as an example. There isn&#8217;t any dispute that the Jews have suffered throughout history, from pogroms to the Holocaust, their life has been one of constant fear. All this suffering and fear has served to reinforce the population&#8217;s belief that they are Victims, and therefore in need of help from a Rescuer.</p>
<p>They certainly are suffering from the attacks that Palestine see as their fight for freedom from Persecutor Israel. The suffering is real on both sides.</p>
<p>America has decided to play Rescuer to Israel because they see themselves as superior, believing that without them Israel wouldn&#8217;t survive. They also want to manipulate a geo-political position in the Middle-East, but this would be a spin-off from their Rescuer role.</p>
<p>Israel&#8217;s survival may or may not depend on the intervention of America, but the consequences are vast for both countries. While America arms Israel and pours billions of dollars into their economy, America struggles with a national debt which may be its downfall.</p>
<p>Israel jumps to the Persecutor role and the game will go on unless America can no longer sustain the monetary input. This will cause Israel to look for another Rescuer.</p>
<p><em><strong>Stop The Games </strong></em></p>
<p>These games could stop at any time if countries were able to get off the triangle. There is only one way to do this, and that is to understand that all countries are equal, but knowing equality means being without any fear.</p>
<p><em><strong>Fear Is The Driver</strong></em></p>
<p>Freud would have called it, &#8216;getting rid of ego&#8217;, but it is in fact, letting go of fear. Fear can be acknowledged as the driver that keeps the games in play.</p>
<p>The manipulators (those that some call &#8216;The Illuminati) are racked with fear. They have no knowledge of the greatness of humanity, they see only that their happiness depends on being in a superior position. To do this their role is to play Persecutor.</p>
<p>They  must ignore the laws of the Universe, or believe that they are so powerful that they can manipulate the law as they manipulate countries and people. This is impossible for them to stop playing, unless they remove themselves from the triangle model, and I see no signs of this happening.</p>
<p><em><strong> Live And Die On The Triangle</strong></em></p>
<p>If you live your life on the Drama Triangle you will find yourself taking every position. Those that choose to be Persecutors will themselves be Persecuted and find themselves in the position of Victim.</p>
<p>There are hints of this when we hear about the in-fighting that takes place within the families that make up the so-called Illuminati. The Rockerfellers and Rothchilds hold no love for one another, constantly vying for pole position, as do the lower echelons that radiate around them.</p>
<p>They choose to continue with their Persecutor&#8217;s position, and that Persecution is passed down to the manipulated, who allow themselves to take the Victim position. If we allow it, the Victims will be us.</p>
<p><em><strong> False Bids For Freedom</strong></em></p>
<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/wearechangeuk.jpg" title="wearechangeuk.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/wearechangeuk.thumbnail.jpg" title="wearechangeuk.jpg" alt="wearechangeuk.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a>There are groups organizing in a bid to free themselves. A group in the UK called &#8216;<a href="http://www.wearechange.org.uk/" title="link to we are change uk">We Are Change</a>&#8216; aim to emulate Gandhi and make only peaceful protest, they were recently Persecuted. Forcefully removed and beaten by a police force, who themselves are being manipulated by fear moved these, would be Rescuers, to the Victim position.</p>
<p>US Presidential Candidate Ron Paul will also find himself adopting the Victim&#8217;s position, if his reason for entering the presidential race is to Rescue his fellow Americans. We cannot know his reasons of course, but we will find out in due course if he ever manages to be voted into such an undesirable position as puppet leader.</p>
<p>I admire Alex Jones, but he will achieve nothing if he continues to jump from Rescuer to Persecutor on the Drama Triangle. Although all his investigations point to his role as that of Rescuer, his style of delivery is one which creates fear, the Persecutor&#8217;s role. He will find himself Persecuted at some time in his career.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body">That Persecution will come very soon if he allows reporting of this fashion on his site:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Comment:</strong></p></blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p class="subheadline_body"> One <a href="http://www.infowars.com/" title="link to Infowars">infowars.com</a> reader also noted that in today&#8217;s <a href="http://express.lineone.net/news.html">UK Daily Express</a> <span class="subheadline_body">that Cherie Bliar &#8220;casts a circle&#8221; before every meeting she has and Tony Blair carries a grey velvet pouch stuffed with a piece of parchment and red ribbon next to his breast at all times. Wonderful Christians, this pair. And this </span><span class="subheadline_body">is from a mainstream newspaper, not a <em>National Enquirer<br />
</em>type of comic rag.</span></p></blockquote>
<p class="subheadline_body"><em><strong>Persecution For Power </strong></em></p>
<p><ain>This is Persecution for power&#8217;s sake.</ain></p>
<p class="subheadline_body">We cannot change anyone&#8217;s ingrained opinion by Persecuting them, if we are foolish enough to attempt this, then we will soon find that we become the Victim. The Persecutor will go on as if we hadn&#8217;t entered their consciousness, until of course, they themselves become a Victim. There is no escape without change.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body"><em><strong>How To Remove Yourself From The Triangle </strong></em></p>
<p class="subheadline_body">Step by step we need to remove ourselves from the Drama Triangle model.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body">The first step in doing this is to realise that every television drama that we watch, every fictional book that we read and every news headline that shouts, famine, war, genocide and terrorism seeks to reinforce our belief that life is meant to be lived through constant dramas. Break the habit, don&#8217;t watch, read, fear or sympathise.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body"><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/my-bent-spoon.jpg" title="my-bent-spoon.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/my-bent-spoon.thumbnail.jpg" title="my-bent-spoon.jpg" alt="my-bent-spoon.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a></p>
<p class="subheadline_body"><em><strong> I Bent This Spoon</strong></em></p>
<p class="subheadline_body">Learn how to believe in yourself and the innate power that you already possess.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body">Learn how to use your intuition, so that you are always in the right place at the right time. In this way you will avoid becoming a Victim.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body">Learn that &#8216;The Bible&#8217; teaches all the Drama Triangle positions as a template for living a &#8216;good&#8217; life. It is not the truth, avoid it.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body">If you know in your heart that no person is superior to another, no country is superior to another, no religion is superior to another, no life is superior to another, then you will be able to say&#8230;&#8217;I'm ok and You&#8217;re ok&#8217;, and you will be free of the triangle.</p>
<p class="subheadline_body">When you are free from the triangle, then you are free from fear, and nothing and no-one can harm you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/merryoldsanta.jpg" title="merryoldsanta.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/merryoldsanta.thumbnail.jpg" title="merryoldsanta.jpg" alt="merryoldsanta.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Not Enough Money</strong></p>
<p>There is nothing that creates greater anxiety than the fear of not having enough money.</p>
<p>Christmas is looming, the manufactured religious holiday that proclaims the good times, if your wallet is full enough. Children nowadays have been educated to expect everything that takes their attention, and there is much brought to their attention, and much to take their fancy.</p>
<p><strong>The Elf Was Green Before Cola </strong></p>
<p>Coca Cola have brought us a red suited Santa who delivers toys to children while they sleep, and of course it would be churlish of grown-ups not to buy their children presents too. That is two lots of presents that adults must pay for.</p>
<p><strong>Fear At The Pit Of The Stomach</strong></p>
<p>The credit cards are maxed out, or poorer families borrow small amounts of money at inflated interest rates to furnish their children&#8217;s whims, some are still paying these back as next Christmas rolls around. This creates a fear at the pit of the stomach that goes on to cause untold physical dis-ease.  Poverty in an affluent society.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/bof-englandlondon.jpg" title="bof-englandlondon.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/bof-englandlondon.thumbnail.jpg" title="bof-englandlondon.jpg" alt="bof-englandlondon.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a></p>
<p><strong>The Birth Of The Bank of England </strong></p>
<p>In England it wasn&#8217;t possible to borrow money that would earn the lender credit from the transaction, what is termed as usury, until 1694 when King William  of Orange (1650-1702) signed a charter that created the Bank of England. From this small acorn the whole central banking system emerged.</p>
<p>The Bank  of England wanted complete control of the British  Government. Then they could apply pressure on the colonies and  manipulate rebellion. When the country was weakened by civil war  they could impose a Bank of England type bank on the Colonies. This they did in the year 1791. It was called the Bank of the &#8220;U.S.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong> Sheer Stupidity</strong></p>
<p>A British Member of Parliament said this about the Bank of England in 1810.</p>
<blockquote><p> There is something so consummately ridiculous in the idea of a nation&#8217;s  getting money by paying interest to itself upon its own stock, that the mind of every rational man naturally rejects it. It is, really, something little short of madness to suppose, that a nation can increase its wealth; increase its means  of paying others; that it can do this by paying interest to itself.  When time is taken to reflect, no rational man will attempt to maintain a proposition so shockingly absurd.</p></blockquote>
<p>(William  Cobbett, M.P., Paper Against Gold, p.83).</p>
<p><strong> Foiled By General Jackson</strong></p>
<p>General  Jackson however, refused to renew the bank charter and it collapsed in1836. It re-appeared and was re-chartered in 1913 under  the name &#8220;Federal&#8221; Reserve Bank of the &#8220;U.S.&#8221; By putting the words &#8216;Federal&#8217; and &#8216;Reserve&#8217; in its title most Americans believe that it is part of the Federal Government, this is not true.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/federal-reserve-seal-usa.png" title="federal-reserve-seal-usa.png"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/federal-reserve-seal-usa.thumbnail.png" title="federal-reserve-seal-usa.png" alt="federal-reserve-seal-usa.png" align="left" border="0" /></a></p>
<p><strong>No Federal Or Reserve</strong></p>
<p>The Federal Reserve is neither Federal or has any reserve. It is a cartel controlled from Europe by the Rothschilds who are Illuminati. It has not produced any audited accounts since its inception in 1913. and yet this is the source of the US National Debt.</p>
<blockquote><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica">The estimated population of the United States is <strong>303,776,966</strong></font></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica"> so each citizen&#8217;s share of this debt is  now <strong>$30,185.33</strong>.</font></p></blockquote>
<p>It&#8217;s much harder to find correct figures for the UK National Debt, this is as near as I could get, but it will have increased substantially with the Iraq and Afghan wars.</p>
<blockquote><p>The UK National Debt in 2001 stood at around <strong>£400 billion</strong> and the annual interest on that is around <strong>£25-30 billion!</strong></p></blockquote>
<p><strong> Slaves To Debt</strong></p>
<p>The American and British people are servicing this debt to Illuminati Bankers who didn&#8217;t have the money in the first place.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/adamsmith-20bank-note.jpg" title="adamsmith-20bank-note.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/adamsmith-20bank-note.thumbnail.jpg" title="adamsmith-20bank-note.jpg" alt="adamsmith-20bank-note.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Money For Nothing</strong></p>
<p>When you go into the Bank and agree a loan there aren&#8217;t any notes printed, coins counted out or precious metals moved. The money is typed into your account, they have created money out of nothing and it has cost them nothing to do it. But from that moment you, or the country, start paying interest on money which has never, and will never exist.</p>
<p><strong>They Bring You War</strong><br />
This same force, the Illuminati, who created the banking system and now control all the banks, also created the political system. Through the creation of wars they create huge borrowing, which then gives them total control over most of the political parties.</p>
<p><strong> Debt Doesn&#8217;t Exist</strong></p>
<p>Personal Debt, National Debt and Third World Debt don&#8217;t really exist, it is just figures on a computer screen.</p>
<p><strong>Assassinated For Free Thinking</strong></p>
<p>Interest free money could exist, although we are constantly told that it can&#8217;t be done. John F. Kennedy new that it could be done, and so did President Lincoln, they both began to issue interest free money, and were both assassinated! Such is the power behind the Banks.</p>
<p><strong>Creating Depression</strong></p>
<p>It looks as if the Illuminati have decided to create depression with their latest interest rate cuts. They do this by cutting the amount of money in circulation. Lower interest rates mean less money coming in for them to loan out, and they also take a decision to make getting a loan harder. The past boom then collapses and people suffer.</p>

<p><strong>The Bank Never Suffers (Its Employees Do)</strong></p>
<p>The banks don&#8217;t suffer. They collect all the collateral that was used as security to get loans in the first place. Houses, Land, Businesses and Savings line their coffers.</p>
<p><strong>Money and Fear: Weapons Of Human Control</strong></p>
<p>If it is within your power, pay off your credit cards and loans, for I believe that this system is about to be used to destroy America, and perhaps Britain too. For money, together with fear are the main weapons of human control.</p>

<p><strong> 2012: The End is Nigh!</strong></p>
<p>There is a great buzz happening in the blogosphere about 2012 and the end of the Mayan Calendar. I know that the world is facing upheavals, probably starting before 2012, but it will not be the end of the world, this is Fear mongering in the extreme.</p>
<p>When I first came across the work of<a href="http://www.mayanmajix.com/Ian_datapage.html" title="Link to MayanMajix"> Ian X. Lundgold,</a> I was impressed. I read his work and listened to his talks, and was as concerned as everyone else that the world was about to be blown away in a puff of dust. The human race would be no more.</p>
<p>Thankfully my intuition stepped in, and I followed.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/ian-x-lungold.jpg" title="ian-x-lungold.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/ian-x-lungold.thumbnail.jpg" title="ian-x-lungold.jpg" alt="ian-x-lungold.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a></p>
<p><strong> Dr. Calleman Steps Up The Fear Teaching</strong></p>
<p>Now that Ian Lungold is no longer amongst us, his friend and co-researcher Dr. Carl Johan Calleman, a Swedish Bio-engineer, is the more frequently quoted. I presume that the bloggers who quote from his book believe in all that he says, but I am unhappy, and need to ask where all this information came from.</p>
<p><strong> They Are Believable&#8230;But I Don&#8217;t Believe Them</strong></p>
<p>I know from looking into their eyes that Ian Lungold and Carl Calleman are men of integrity, they truly believed and believe all that they teach&#8230;and I don&#8217;t believe them!</p>
<p><strong> Better To Remain Silent?</strong></p>
<p>I could remain quiet, pretending that I do, because I do believe that there is great cosmic upheaval coming, and say, &#8220;well, the Mayan Calendar predicted it.&#8221; But the information from the Mayan Shaman came from the wrong place, it came from <em>The Annunaki reptilians.</em></p>
<p><strong>Always Some Truth </strong></p>
<p>This of course, doesn&#8217;t make all the information useless, there is always some truth in stories that have lasted for thousands of years, there has to be, or they wouldn&#8217;t stand the test of time.</p>
<p><strong>Persecution Sells A Belief </strong></p>
<p>The Conquistadors helped by persecuting the Mayans, this always adds authenticity to a myth. But they too didn&#8217;t want their myths to be found out, and if the whole Mayan population had realised that the Jesus story was a myth, they would have lost their control. They relied on religious domination, and they still do.</p>
<p><strong> Pre-Destination To Death</strong></p>
<p>If we believe the Mayan Calendar in its entirety, then we must believe that our fate is set, the Earth is predestined to die, and us with it. I do not believe in pre-destination, I believe in free-will, and I believe in choice.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/itzamna.jpg" title="itzamna.jpg"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/itzamna.thumbnail.jpg" title="itzamna.jpg" alt="itzamna.jpg" align="left" border="0" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Annunaki Gods</strong></p>
<p>The Annunaki, who became gods to the Maya, and their chief god Itzamna, are believed to have bequeathed this calendar information to the Mayan people so that they would be able to follow the evolution of humanity.</p>
<p><strong> The Divine Spark</strong></p>
<p>It may be a Darwinian fact that humanity has evolved from the primordial swamp, but consciousness has not needed to evolve, we are, and always have been a Divine spark. Which means that I have a huge problem with &#8216;evolution&#8217;, and of course, this is what the calendar teaches.</p>
<p><strong>Where Did This Information Come From?</strong></p>
<p>My next problem is a statement made by Ian X. Lungold in his last talk. A female member of the audience asked where this information came from, his reply:</p>
<blockquote><p>They received this information as a gift from the God Itzamna, but it really is  none of our business where they got it&#8230;</p></blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/mayan-pyramid.JPG" title="mayan-pyramid.JPG"><img src="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/mayan-pyramid.thumbnail.JPG" title="mayan-pyramid.JPG" alt="mayan-pyramid.JPG" align="left" border="0" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Know Who To Believe</strong></p>
<p>If I am to believe anything in this world, I need to know its source, and the reptilians are those who made slaves of the human race, I cannot believe that they have my best interests at heart.</p>
<p>I also have trouble with a race who believed that they must slaughter a 1000 of their young at one time in order to pacify their God. Whose pyramids have gulleys to enable the fresh blood to flow down and bathe the Earth. And through human channels are now purporting to teach &#8216;peace&#8217;.</p>
<p><strong>Another Question </strong></p>
<p>This was a question posed to Ian Lungold, again in an audience:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Many people tell me to just let go, but I&#8217;m also thinking about</em></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p><em>             knowing all about my opponent. Know your enemy!</em></p></blockquote>
<p>This was his reply:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong><em>             The Reptilian consciousness has been with us for at least 6000 years              now. We have survived and evolved with them here no matter what they              were doing or what they intended. </em><br />
Now we are at a point of disclosure and the consciousness of our total              situation in this galaxy not just national or planetary. All of this              will become very open over the next few years.<br />
I would say by 2008 the parts played by other races in this solar              system will be known and by 2010 we will know the history of the galaxy              and be opening to understanding the universe and the parts we play              in the creation of it.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>He may be correct in his understanding, but I come back to trust, and I don&#8217;t trust them.</p>
<p><strong>All Higher Dimensions Know More </strong></p>
<p>He may have believed that those with whom he was communicating were people of a higher dimension. Well, that wouldn&#8217;t be difficult. We exist in the 3rd dimension, the reptilians in the 4th, they <em>DO </em>know more than we do, but this doesn&#8217;t make them benevolent.</p>
<p><strong>Channelling Kryon </strong></p>
<p>On the same site we have a channelled message from David Brown who is in contact with those that he calls  Kryon, and who he believes to be gods. The message speaks of love, and asks us to let go&#8230;and the last sentence gives it all away:</p>
<blockquote><p> Dear Ones this is<a href="http://www.mayanmajix.com/art3204.html" title="Link to David Brown Kryon"> Kryon</a> connecting you to the triple sevens,   the lucky sevens, the energy of love connection.</p></blockquote>
<p>The word <em>Luck </em>has its root in the word Lucifer&#8230;click the Kryon link to read the whole channelled message. Once more we have a misguided channeller, who believes that any entity that comes from a higher dimension must be benevolent.</p>
<p><strong> The Earth Is Changing&#8230;Fact</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.hiddenknowledge.net/2007/11/01/global-warming-a-hidden-cause/" title="Link to Global Warming">The Earth is changing</a> because its vibration is rising, if we raise our vibration we will go with it. If we don&#8217;t we will suffer, and the more that you are taught to Fear, the easier you will be paralysed into non-action, and from your non-action will come suffering.</p>
