On The Road To Armageddon

Add to Google Buzz

Robert Singer:

For the last three days the most popular article on OpedNews, a tough progressive website, has been The Road to Armageddon:

“Inside the Beltway” report, “Explosive News,” about the 31 press conferences in cities in the US and abroad on February 19 held by Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, an organization of professionals which now has 1,000 members.

By the Honorable Paul Craig Roberts, scholar, academic, journalist and Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in the Reagan Administration.

The Road to Armageddon is a wildly popular story about the most popular story on the Washington Times website.

Roberts was surprised that the news report on “How did three World Trade Center skyscrapers suddenly disintegrate into fine dust?” was treated seriously.

Why is Paul Craig Roberts, and The Washington Times, a newspaper that looks with favor upon the Bush/Cheney/Obama/neocon wars of aggression, reporting:

“A thousand architects and engineers want to know, and are calling on Congress to order a new investigation into the destruction of the Twin Towers and Building 7,”

This is information deliberately announced publicly or leaked by a government or an intelligence agency to sow confusion and undermine credibility.

Let’s get real, what are these stories doing in the mainstream media 8½ years after the September 11 attacks?

Answer: They promote the erroneous controlled demolition theory on the collapse of the World Trade Center.

Former President George W. Bush’s comment, “Let us never tolerate outrageous conspiracy theories” aired on national television after the attacks of 9/11.

Google “9/11 conspiracy” and you get 134,000,000 results.

Google “9/11 outrageous conspiracy” you get 556,000 results.

There is a 9/11-truth movement in every major city in the United States.

9/11 conspiracy theories are allowed and even encouraged.

The 9/11 Truth Movement is the Cover for a Metaphysical Catechism (Test)

I’ll get right to the point, I have read the books and watched the documentaries on September 11 for three years and the 9/11 official story:

Nineteen fanatical Arab hijackers, masterminded by an evil genius named Osama bin Laden, crash airplanes into steel skyscrapers because they “hate our freedom to consume”. Inexplicably the jet fuel, which is basically kerosene that burns at about 400c, took on the qualities of an explosive demolition agent, vaporizing 70 tons of aircraft into a puff of smoke and causing 110-story buildings to collapse into a pile of rubble.

Is so stupid that Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld didn’t really expect you to believe it.

A jet fuel fire brought down two of the tallest buildings in the world: Improbable, to say the least. [1]

Millions believe a LIHOP (Let it Happen on Purpose) version thanks to Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 911, because their brain tells them the U.S. government killed 3,000 American citizens to pass the Patriot Act, build up the military and invade Afghanistan and Iraq. [2]

Everyone else, after you point out the obvious (110 stories of steel and concrete collapsing at free fall speed), thinks about it for a New York Second and realizes the official story is ridiculous and couldn’t be true.

Then, they come to the false conclusion it was a MIHOP (Made it Happen on Purpose): Bush, Cheney, and the Neocons killed 3,000 Americans so they could pass the Patriot Act, build up the military and invade Afghanistan and Iraq, an inside job.
In other words, The Powers That Be (TPTB) expected us to believe the 9/11 Truth story: A rogue element of the US government used controlled demolition to bring down the twin towers.

Let me be clear, I agree the US government or some proxy did exploit the events of 9/11: Building 7, the Pentagon and Flight 77. [3]

The “Experts” on 9/11

Professor Steven “Cold Fusion” Jones lectures ad nauseam about the obvious, that 110 stories of steel and concrete do not collapse into a pile of rubble from a kerosene fire. Jones’ research, allegedly peer reviewed, has not proven the building collapsed from controlled demolition.

Dr. Judy Wood, former professor of mechanical engineering, with expertise in material science concludes the buildings were destroyed using some type of “field effect technology” related to the Hutchison Effect and the presence of Hurricane Erin. [4]

Jones, sweet and innocent, looks like he belongs in the Bush administration not in the counterculture community.

Wood, marginalized and tossed out of the 9/11-Truth Movement happens to look like a hippie.

Dr. Wood raises important questions about the so-called collapse and the dip of the Earth’s magnetic field at the precise moment of the supposed first plane “impact” but the 9/11 Truthers refuse to acknowledge her research and her work has been left out in their search for the Truth. [5]

David Ray Griffin, retired professor at the Claremont School of Theology and spokesman for the 9/11 Truth Movement, has written numerous books questioning the 9/11 official story. Inexplicably he and co-founder, John B. Cobb, Jr., of the Center for Process Studies hang around with David Rockefeller. Griffin’s major project at present is in fact, “to develop a theology for a New World Order.” [6]

Dr. Griffin, like Jones, lectures frequently at universities and public places explaining in repetitive detail that September 11 was not the result of 19 Arab terrorists and a kerosene fire.

However, neither of them will discuss anything that contradicts the controlled demolition theory of the twin towers.

The government would not allow the openly treasonous behavior of David Ray and Steven Earl unless the 9/11 Truth Movement was a Counter Intelligence Program (Cointelpro). [7]

9/11 was a Metaphysical Catechism (Test)

Dr. Judy Wood comes close to a metaphysical explanation. Wood’s research concludes the buildings were destroyed using some type of “field effect technology”, related to the Hutchison Effect, the presence of Hurricane Erin and the dip of the Earth’s magnetic field at the precise moment of the supposed first plane “impact.”

Other researchers and scientists without a metaphysical perspective can only postulate the extraordinary amount of energy released was fission less fusion energy, from a thermonuclear device.

The U.S. Department of Energy has reported that just one geothermal location out of the hundreds that have been identified, is so powerful it has the potential to produce 50,000 times the known oil and gas reserves in the world.

The Powers That Be (TPTB), armed with the lost knowledge from the ancient world, Atlantis are in a metaphysical struggle and are using humans to weaken the earth with environmental damage and pollution: 9/11 was a test to determine if TPTP had defeated the Earth. (9/11: The Most Important Issue in the History of the Universe)

The Earth, in resisting TPTB, was the source of the energy released when the Twin Towers collapsed and largely turned into dust. [8]

Robert Singer writes for Pakistan Daily, The Market Oracle and The Peoples Voice.

If you make people think they’re thinking, they’ll love you; but if you really make them think, they’ll hate you.”– Don Marquis

Footnotes:

[1] Many official government stories are so ridiculous that a select group of people some call The Powers That Be (TPTB) don’t expect you to believe them. Disinformation is misleading information that is true, deliberately announced publicly or leaked by a government or an intelligence agency to sow confusion and undermine credibility. Misinformation is false or inaccurate information, which is deliberately intended to deceive.

[2] There are three reasons why most Americans are in denial and cling to the official story:

  1. I am a Patriot, the US is a great country they wouldn’t kill 3,000 American citizens to pass the Patriot Act, build up the military and invade Afghanistan and Iraq (Kill3000toPassBuild&Invade).
  2. I like my life I’m having a good time don’t bother me with the Kill3000toPassBuild&Invade nonsense.
  3. I can’t do anything about it anyway, so don’t bother me with the Kill3000toPassBuild&Invade story.

[3] Let me be clear, I agree the US government or some proxy did exploit the events of 9/11 to:

  • Demolish Building 7 that wasn’t even hit by a plane, home of the SEC investigation files and Rudy Giuliani’s command center.
  • Fire a cruise missile into the newly renovated wing of the Pentagon, killing 189 people, including the five “alleged” hijackers and 34 civilian accountants, bookkeepers and budget analysts working for the Resource Services department. And, in another one of those coincidences that don’t happen very often, the accountants and bookkeepers were investigating, according to Donald Rumsfeld, 2.3 trillion Dollars that “just vanished”, September 10, 2001, Donald Rumsfeld spoke to Congress and confessed the Pentagon is missing 2.3 trillion Dollars. Just vanished.
  • Shoot down flight 77 over Pennsylvania and kill the passengers from flight 93 and a second mysterious airplane that made an emergency landing at Cleveland Hopkins Airport. Flights 11, 12 (9+3), 13 (1+7+5), 14 (7+7). UAL Flight 93 Landed Safely At Cleveland Hopkins Airport Plane Lands In Cleveland – Bomb Feared Aboard 8-7-4 Reported by 9 News Staff Web produced by: Liz Foreman 9/11/01, At 10 A.M. on 9/11 Cleveland airport was evacuated due to rumors of a bomb scare. People around the airport were told to go home.
  • Remove the rubble from the Twin Towers with GPS tracked debris trucks before anyone could perform a forensic analysis. WTC Steel Removal The Expeditious Destruction of the Evidence at Ground Zero http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/groundzero/cleanup.html#ref2. The authorities apparently considered the rubble quite valuable: New York City officials had every debris truck tracked on GPS and had one truck driver who took an unauthorized 1 ½ hour lunch fired.

[7] COINTELPRO is the FBI acronym for a series of covert action programs directed against domestic groups. In these programs, the Bureau went beyond the collection of intelligence to secret action defined to “disrupt” and “neutralize” target groups and individuals. The techniques were adopted wholesale from wartime counterintelligence, and ranged from the trivial (mailing reprints of Reader’s Digest articles to college administrators) to the degrading (sending anonymous poison-pen letters intended to break up marriages) and the dangerous (encouraging gang warfare and falsely labeling members of a violent group as police informers).

[8] The World Trade Center (WTC) towers did not “collapse” on 9/11/01, they were pulverized (Blown to Kingdom Come) before a gravity-driven collapse was even a possibility. Pulverized to dust, a paucity of remaining material. Where are the concrete floors? Where is the office furniture? Where is the office machinery? Where are the filing cabinets? Where is the wall board? Where are the bookcases? They were not there, so most of it appears to have turned to dust, as illustrated in Figure 31.

The Story of India

I found this series by Michael Wood on Indian history very well put together, except for some of the large swathes of history he has ignored or been unable to cover. Having said that, his interest in the country and the subcontinent in general is genuine and this is definitely heartening, in this day and age when most Americans only think of India as a large country on the other side of the world and “tech support”. I have only come across a few colleagues here in the United States who really appreciate the vast and diverse sub-continent with the interest and respect the region deserves. Most others think of it as just another country, a statistic in the context of their own country and their achievements. Having said that, what is interesting about Americans is not their strange ignorance but their ability to do business with just about anyone.

The Story of India is a project which has long been in the making. Michael Wood has apparently spent a good few years in India for producing this documentary, travelling around India and visiting sundry locations to get a complete flavour of the country, which is difficult to do given the diversity if not the vastness. Even for ordinary Indians like me who can reconcile five languages, multiple types of food and diverse living conditions and climates, it is difficult to fathom how complex India is and how complex Indian history is, with its antiquity, influences and the sheer number of people who have influenced its turns through fortune and misfortune and conquest and glory. The documentary starts aptly, at the very beginning.

“Beginnings” is the first part of the DVD series that deals with much of the prehistory of India, given to speculation and controversy even to this day. It covers the Indus Valley Civilization, sometimes more appropriately called the Indus-Saraswati Civilization or the Ghagra-Hakkar Civilization (although these terms may refer to different cultures or offshoots of the same fundamental people). The IVC is well known in historical circles these days, but Wood covers the history of the West’s quest to understand India’s history too, specifically the case of Sanskrit, the Vedas and pioneers such as William Jones and James Prinsep, who saw India as an antiquated country even by Greek and Latin standards, and whose literature and historical precedents they compared to that of the latter. Wood takes us through a fascinating chronicle of the rise and fall of the IVC, the possibility of climate change in ancient times, Rigvedic practices that are alive in southern India to this day, and the advent of the Iron Age kingdoms in India, better known to some of us as the Mahajanapadas. The many great Kings of the Mahajanapadas, historical and legendary kings of the Ikshvaku and Yadu races are not mentioned, perhaps for want of “historical” accuracy. The Indo-Greek Kingdoms (the Yavanas/Yonas) of the post-Buddhist era are also almost entirely ignored.

“The Power of Ideas”, the second part in the series, digs deeper and takes us on a journey through the spiritual and religious history of India, focusing primarily on post-Vedic Buddhism and the Jain religion. Little mention is made of the pioneering efforts of later sages such as Adi Shankara, Ramanuja and Madhva. Little to no mention is made of the philosophical and spiritual writing of the time, especially stalwarts like Kalidasa, Banabhatta and Bhartrhari, whose poetry and plays form an integral part of any self-respecting Indian literature course in Indian colleges and universities, and whose mention would be essential in an Indian history course. The deep connection of religion with the sciences in traditional Indian thought, the exchange of Indian ideas with the Greeks and the Romans and Indian mathematics as derived from Indian religion – all these could also be highlighted more. The Power of Ideas drives home its idea of an India sprinkled with holy men with peaceful thoughts and paints Indian religion as one of peaceniks. It doesn’t show the aggressive, chauvinistic side of Hinduism, Shakti and Shiva worship which were necessary for martial kings and noblemen, the oppression of the Buddhists in the early previous millenium, and the double standards of Buddhist kings who waged war while being Buddhist or “secular” (although I hate to use this much-maligned term).

“Spice Routes and Silk Roads”, part three in the series, takes us on a wondrous journey through Central Asia and northern India, when kingdoms spanned the Silk Route and set up pioneering towns like Takshashila (Taxila), Suvastu (Swat) and Purushapura (Peshawar). It takes us back to a time when science was patronized, the arts were fostered under the Kushanas, Sanskrit was revived as the language of scholarship, advances in medicine were made and even exported to Greece (the Kushanas spoke Greek and Sanskrit and were of Yuechi origin, from China: their medicine came to the Arab world from the Ionian islands in Greece as Unani), Buddhism was prevalent in large parts of India and outsiders for the first time came to rule India arguably after one thousand years. Spice Routes and Silk Roads also takes a sympathetic view of Kanishka, one of my favourite Indian monarchs, the first real king after Ashoka who brought a large portion of India under his control from his base in Central Asia. The series refers to Kanishka as Kans (Kamsa) of Indian legend. To my mind, this seemed a tad implausible, especially as the Bhagavatapuranam, as with others puranas, was a product of the Gupta era or later, and saw the genesis of Kamsa as a king who confronted the divine Krishna. In any case, the cut has made it into the documentary, for better or for worse.

Episode 4 of the series is titled “Ages of Gold” and is a chronicle of the Gupta-Chola age where Indian indigenous civilization reached new heights of achievement in administration, the sciences, especially metallurgy and medicine and when trade flourished with the Romans, Berbers, Persians. The documentary mentions the Indianized kingdoms of Brahmadesa (Burma), Thailand, Kambuja (Cambodia) and Sumatra although you’ll agree that it would take a whole episode to cover Indianized kingdoms in this documentary. Curiously, Michael Wood covers the Ramayana under this episode, although it is purported to be as old as or older than the Mahabharata – at least Rama is said to belong to an earlier age in the cyclical time of Hindu myth – in the Tretayuga. Ideas that don’t get mention here are the consolidated Bhakti movement which distilled aspects of Vedic belief, the rise and fall of the Vijayanagar (although Wood does cover it at some level), the powerful Gurjara kings and the splendid Marathas. The disappearance of Buddhism and Jainism from the subcontinent is also not dealt with in more detail. Apostate philosophies like the Charvaka and the Tarka schools and India’s achievements in mathematics and the physical sciences during this time are not adequately chronicled. Having said all this, it is still interesting to watch Michael Wood narrating the whole thing because of how involved he is in the subject.

Episode 5 chronicles the rise of Islam in the subcontinent and takes a sympathetic view of Dara Shikoh, who alluded to the meeting of Vedic-Bhakti beliefs and Islam as “the meeting of two oceans”. Wood chronicles the slave kings, the coming of Babur, the splendid Mughals with inordinate attention to their architecture, but not enough attention to Islamist and fundamentalist rulers like Aurangzeb or others who were responsible for more than 80 million Indian lives in the 13th and 14th centuries. The unbeliever “Jizya” tax, the general lack of integration of Muslims into Indian society and the rampant profligate spending of the upper classes of this time in India resembles only the modern US in the scale of decadence and depravity, and Wood hints at this.

Episode 6 takes us through the colonial age when the British laid siege to most of India and competed with local princes and kings for power. The lack of a monarch, the decay in Indian resolve to unify and stand off against an external enemy, were all compounded by the trade equations and the presence of multiple colonial powers – the French, Dutch and Portugese were ignored in his presentation altogether, although the roots of the freedom movement are accurately chronicled as having begun from the deep south, after which it spread in 1857 to the scale we all know it took on today. The various acts and reforms and the acts of Christian missionaries are all ignored to make the documentary palatable to most Indians, while Jallianwallah Bagh is highlighted. Wood covers personal stories as well – two freedom fighters are interviewed. Wood leaves the documentary with the moment of India’s independence and the creation of India and Pakistan, and much to my chagrin doesn’t cover India’s rise to prominence in the past few decades – although this fact is mentioned more than once during the series.

I found the dearth of information about kings other than Ashoka, Chandragupta Vikramaditya II and Akbar a little worrying, because if anything, we seem to identify only these as the great monarchs of our history. It would be unjust to forget the other great kings in Indian history like Harshavardhana, Raja Raja Chola, Shashanka, Pulikeshi, Yashovarman, the Pala kings and that most ignored militarily successful kingdom in all Indian history – the Andhras. In this sense, Wood does justice to one of the aforementioned kings, Raja Raja Chola, although the others are mostly ignored. The development of India’s fine arts through the ages could also have been chronicled, and it would be nice if one could get a feel for life in the times through the documentary – but this also means using one’s own imagination lesser, which is never welcome! This documentary intended to be the one comprehensive and concise documentary which chronicled all of Indian history and considered its many facets. I think that the attempt itself is laudable and noteworthy, not to mention the many things in it that were new to me. The documentary is nicely embellished with excellent cinematography, editing and sound which all provide a sense of place to the idyllic and architecturally splendid spots covered in the documentary. Michael Wood’s fervid interest in India becomes the focal point of narration on more than one occasion, making it clear that this is indeed a labour of love. In summary, the documentary is worth a watch for most non-Indians on the subject of India and her history through the millenia, but would leave most Indians wanting for more.

Concern expressed over detained leaders’ declining health

Srinagar, March 07 (KMS): In occupied Kashmir, the Jammu and Kashmir Tehreek-e-Hurriyet (TeH) has expressed serious concern over the deteriorating health of the illegally detained Hurriyet leader and party General Secretary, Muhammad Ashraf Sehrai. Tehreek-e-Hurriyet in a meeting held in Srinagar said that the health of Muhammad Ashraf Sehrai had deteriorated to an alarming proportion due to prolonged detention.

The participant of the meeting pointed out that his life would be in danger if he was not given proper medical treatment. They warned that the occupation authorities would be responsible if anything untoward happened to the detainee.

The meeting denounced the continued illegal detention of Hurriyet leaders including Masarrat Alam Butt, Ghulam Nabi Sumjhi, Firdous Ahmed Shah, Muhammad Yousuf Mir, Abdul Ahad Para, Muhammad Rafiq Ganai, Abdul Aziz Dar, Shaikh Muhammad Abdullah and Raja Mehraj-ud-Din. It also appealed to the international human rights organisations to impress upon India to release the Kashmiri detainees.

On the other hand, the Jammu and Kashmir Muslim League (ML) has said that the occupation authorities were not providing medical treatment to its illegally detained ailing Vice Chairman, Muhammad Yousuf Mir. The ML spokesman in a statement in Srinagar said, Muhammad Yousuf Mir has been languishing in Kot Bhalwal jail and he has developed several ailments during the detention.

Bollywood shrinks to 0

Bollywood

Used to be, Bollywood actresses were curvy. (Like it used to be here, come to think of it.) But alas, the U.K.’s Telegraph reports that Bollywood is shrinking:

“There’s been a lot of changes in the last decade, whether it’s in modelling or in Bollywood,” said Venu Hirani, a nutritionist and fitness consultant in Mumbai.

“Today, the basic requirement for someone wanting to go into either is that they need to be a (US) size zero,” she said.

And check this out:

“Now I have more and more of the younger generation who don’t really need to lose weight but tell me they need to knock off five kilogrammes (11 pounds).”

Argh! No, Bollywood, noooo!

Mizoram Medical Outreach: Day Three

March 3, 2010

It is day three of our first Jewish Voice medical clinic in Mizoram, India. We will only be able to treat patients for half the day today here in the village, because we must spend the rest of the day tearing down our camp and transporting medical supplies and staff to our next medical clinic in another location.

This won’t be our first time in our second location. We first traveled to this village in 2008, bringing food to needy Jewish People there. Rats had completely decimated their crops, causing a severe famine.

Today we plan on seeing some 500 patients before we leave for our next location. So far, our staff of around 33 has seen 2, 950 patients during our two-and-a-half day medical clinic. And we estimate that number will increase to more than 3,000 by the end of our first clinic.

Our prayer team has seen God move mightily among those suffering with various pains, witnessing God’s healing touch. The team believes that God will completely heal all who came for prayer today.
