Predictions by humans arise from a wide range of sources: dream expectation; dream fantasy;
dream-state visions of time-altered reality ; emotional paranoia; intuitive insight ; rational
projection; rational theorization; spiritual meditation ; spacebeing visual transfer, and others. Most
of these are incorrect or subject to factors of deception. In the following, the predictions noted have been derived from the more dependable sources;
90% of human sourced predictions have proven to be wrong when source
has not been considered.
If we are wise AND humble, we can ask Spiritual Guidance for the better answers, and CHANGE our Future by changing our Present from our Past. It is NOT spiritually correct to impose change or truth on others. You read this report. No one is forcing you to believe any of it or act on any of it. Your CHOICE. Your FUTURE.
To the extent that humans die in catastrophes, it is because they have refused to seek spiritual direction and refused to follow spiritual counsel. Look back not in anger but in humility. Look forward in faith, hope
and spiritual purpose.
Obsession is largely a product of inappropriate nutrition, lack of
spiritual training, cultural patterning, energy block accumulation and material anxiety. So also are nationalism, ethnocentrism, aggressive-passive communication, authoritarianism, greed, chronic illnesses, substance addictions, paranoia, anxiety and depressive disorders, and crimes of violence ... including war.
Predictions provide for an element of choice and interaction such that a prediction
could be altered or changed if the parties involved made a focused effort to do so. Predictions are
made by persons who are speaking for themselves and projecting their rational and intuitive skills.
Prophesies often extend for a long duration into the future relative to the life span of a human.
For this reason, most humans and cultures tend to "forget"
about them, or, show little interest in preparing for them until they are imminent. This is also the
reason that many humans regard predictions as both more immediate and more important.
Human recorded and preserved histories have demonstrated that whatever these "instructions" are,
humanity usually chooses not to fulfill them, or, in its compulsive behaviour patterns, is too weak
to fulfill them. To this extent, the prophesy is mandated.
Much of this is spent on the prorated cost of satellite and computer hardware.
While the water temperature can be instantaneously
calculated for any beach on the Earth, weather conditions for any location are at best accurate for
a period of 48 hours. The accuracy of 24 hour weather predictions, as provided by national
weather services - based on technical sensing, historical charts for 100 to 150 years, and, rational
projections and assumptions - proves to be 55% accurate!
In greater detail, the prizes - 2 of which you had purportedly won, included these:
50" RCA Colour TV
18" Outdoor Satellite Dish, latest technology
2 Round Trip tickets to Florida, good to the end of 1997
1996 4x4 Chevy Blazer worth $24,000, with 3 colour options.
As an extra bonus, you would be "allowed" to buy one of the following items for less than half
price:
"Achiever" air purifier & negative ion generator,
valued at $1600.00, yours for only $798.00
OR
"Pure & Simple" water purifier with 8 to 10 year filter use,
valued at $1799.00, yours for only $749.00.
In fact, the operators were so imbued with confidence from
scamming their last 50,000 people that they were using the SAME listing they had used then.
That is, if you were gullible or greedy once, perhaps you would be again - and many were. After
all, someone who's taken the bait once, or twice, ... is a better target than someone that has never
been approached.
The outdoor satellite dish introduces a newly popularized technology which is
receiving wide promotion and about which the general public is largely ignorant. A satellite dish
without numerous costly electronic components is useless; perhaps they're included; perhaps
they're good quality. You don't know: you don't have any brochures on the product that you
could speak with a professional about; you don't have a contract which says exactly what you will
get; you may have to pay someone to assemble, mount and install it. It may cost you more than
you can afford to make it operable. But who says you will even get the two questionable
products? You are going to be sent a certificate for your prizes and your product which is
supposed to be redeemable locally. And what if its just useless paper?
highly spiritual, tolerant, self-responsible ideals and purpose.
Dramatic choices will have to be made on a global political basis for a positive outcome to be
effected. Randomized participation will always be subverted to the power of the majority, as
human history has always shown.
The KEYWORDS for positive and negative expression of Pluto's influence will quite evident
in the Sagittarian themes of travel, politics, sports, politics, ecology, family, risks, and
change.
Positive expressions - the Minerva influence - include consecration, rebirth,
transformation, free flowingness, wisdom, revelation, heaven, willingness, grace, and
integration.
Negative expressions of the Pluto influence will include desecration,
annihilation, tribulation, intensity, enslavement to obsessions, hell, wilfulness, the karma of
blind acceptance of past patterns, disintegration.
While a recorded human history of less than
10,000 years has shown a human submission to the Plutonian negative influences, the
unrecorded pre-history of over 500,000 years suggests an acceptance of the Minerva positive influence. The question to ask may not be whether all of humanity can rapidly and willingly
choose to become more spiritual. Rather, the ultimate question is - do YOU wish to choose
a more constructive lifestyle, or, simply allow your future to be determined by the masses and
the tyrants?
1996
The Earth's temperature during 1995 was announced by the "British Meteorological Office" as being 2 degrees Celsius ABOVE normal.
This finding was regarded by some researchers
as further proof that global warming was resuming following a brief pause caused by the
atmospheric clouding by the dust and volcanic ash from the Mt. Pinatubo eruption in 1995. As
predicted by computer climate models, parts of Siberia were significantly hotter than average in
1995 - up by 3 degrees. Other areas were influenced also by increases of 1 to 3 degrees. A 1
degree increase was viewed by residents of such areas as resulting in "very hot" weather.
1996 - By January,
Canadian dependency on Credit Cards has reached the following:
- The adult population of Canada numbers approximately 23.2 million.
- Canadian adults possess an accumulated total of 58 million cards.
- On average, Canadian adults have 2.5 credit cards each.
- At least 50% of all the credit cards held are either VISA or Mastercard.
- Total debt held by Canadians on this high interest short-term debt is $17 B.
- The average credit card debt carried by Canadians who do not pay off their monthly balance
approaches $2,000.
Over 60% of Canadians could not cover their living expense costs if their income was interrupted
for 45 days
by delayed payment from an employer, reduced employment, loss of employment and
social benefits, or, due to sickness or accident not covered by replacement income benefits.
Canadians have enslaved themselves to the capitalist economic system; their capacity to
question, modify, or, acknowledge the fundamental failure of a capital-based economy has
become equal to an attack on the cultural myths of moral and religious freedom. Their freedom is
commanded by a status quo of participation in a 90% lose / 10% win economic equation. Their
religious freedom is overlaid with a commitment to materialism and the belief in financial success
according to personal (and moral) sacrifice. Rebellion, as an alternative (anti-status quo dis-orderliness and elitist inequality) has become endemic in the shadows of participation:
- a growing hidden cash and barter market reducing taxes collected;
- an acceptance of deviousness and secrecy as a way of life;
- an increasing reliance on superstition and luck (lotteries);
- a growing incidence of reliance on denial (movies, Internet, games);
- a rising self-depreciating acceptance of homelessness:
Winning, and surviving - has, for many, become equal to subversion.
At the same time, active, open rebellion - in the form of the following has become
unacceptable within the status quo and reduced in frequency, or, media acknowledgement:
- drunken behaviour in public;
- drug use in public;
- outright theft and shoplifting;
- violent assaults and murders;
- armed robberies.
The open and obvious forms of reaction to the material and opportunity inequality within the
society have been replaced by a cancer-like influence built on the destruction of the human
spirit and promoting the spiritual destruction of others. A consistent lack of political
leadership has produced a weak-spirited enslaved population likely to resist revolution by
denial rather than by status quo authoritarianism and fascism. The Canadian society provides
an alternative, yet not an opposition to the American society trends.
Canadian society has been built on the fundamentals of order, equality, capital - that is, social law, social and
political bureaucracies, material hopefulness; American society has an enduring history of
individualism, freedom, capital - that is, elitist law, subverted political bureaucracies, material
obsessiveness. Open, active, violent rebellion is an historical expectation of the American
culture; quiet, rationalized, deceptive rebellion is an historical expectation of the Canadian
culture. In a period of massive challenge, BOTH approaches are destructive.
1996 - By January,
An Anti-Nuclear Terrorist Task Force has been implemented by the USA FEMA.
1000 officers would be scheduled for round-the-clock readiness to meet threats of
nuclear terrorism within the USA. By April, over 100 false alarms would have been responded to.
1996 - Early in January,
The First gene directly linked to a personality trait was announced in the general media by research groups in Israel and the USA. A tendency to "novelty-seeking behaviour" in the recipients of this gene was correlated with a specific brain irregularity
controlled by this gene.
One of the authors of the research report, Richard Ebstein of the Sarah
Herzog Memorial Hospital in Jerusalem, pointed out that insurance companies might be very
interested in knowing which of their policyholders and applicants possessed the "thrill-seeker"
gene. Insurance companies try to set their premiums relative to the risks of accident and death
suggested by such factors as age, heritage, past and present behaviours, and others. What
surprised some spectators to the development was the lack of any media expressed concern
following the statement by Brian Gladue of the University of Cincinnati who stated:
this is going to open up the whole field of molecular personality research
The gene results in the structuring of the recipient's brain such that the individual has larger
neuroreceptors for a neurotransmitter called dopamine. Larger receptors have a greater affinity
for dopamine and so they are expected to enhance its effects. Drugs like cocaine and nicotine are
thought to piggyback on dopamine networks. Individuals who get their emotional "highs" easier
and quicker would be discouraged from developing the skills of effective communication,
patience, consideration, teamwork, planning, caution, "maturity".
Typically, they would be easy-to-manipulate and motivate aggressive beings who would always be looking for any means to succeed in reaching their short-term goals, or in satisfying their immediate desires. It should be
emphasized that such a personality trait can already be effectively defined with the use of
questionnaires. Various terms applied to persons who assume such a role model are "troopers", "robots", "replicants", "soldiers", "technicians", "tools", "dependables", and "expendables".
Utilizing the gene analysis approach would be expected as beneficial in those situations in which
the willing participant was unaware of the potential ramifications (i.e. higher premiums,
employment denial, ...), or, was simply too impatient and/or unconcerned to complete the written
tests. In addition, only 50% of the novelty-seeking differences among humans are owing to
genes, and of that only about 1/5th to this particular gene. That is, this gene accounts for only
10% (20% of 50%) of novelty-seeking, risk-taking persons. The only benefit of this
announcement at this point is to raise capital funding to extend the research from organizations
which are most likely to utilize the results to infringe upon the rights of the individual.
1996 - During the week of January 7 to 12,
Snowstorms and Blizzards will halt commerce and transportation across a wide area from the Ohio Valley to Atlantic Canada.
Cold air would travel southward far enough to break 50-year minimum temperatures in Cuba.
In Asia, snowstorms sweeping Kazakhstan since December 23 have resulted in $5 million in damage by now.
In western Germany, many traffic accidents are caused by an ice storm which glazed many highways.
1996 - By February,
Continuing Postal SCAMs were being perpetuated across North America.
In Canada, ACG Independent Judging Organization
of 1 NCC Plaza, P.O. Box 30790, Laguna Hills, CA 92654-0790 -
were again promoting their SCAM by mail and telephone (1-900-451-1665).
They were contacting thousands of Canadians chosen from such mailing lists as those of Reader's Digest and Publisher's Clearing House.
The target was contacted by mail with an advisory which stated that at the request of their client,
DAMI, Inc., the recipient had been entered into a national sweepstakes and that they were
designated to receive a bank cheque for up to $10,295.00 in cash. The details were printed on a
legal size sheet of paper which had an official looking letterhead and which mirrored a legal style
of document.
To add to the legal "image" of the paper, the address was headed with
"PERSONAL & CONFIDENTIAL", a "security code" was provided for confirmation of the
Grand Prize, "strict regulations" were noted as having to be followed, calling a 1-900 phone
number (with the charges noted) was noted for "immediate cheque processing", a skill-testing
question was noted - the answer to which would be requested for mail-in entries, confirmation
that no product was being offered or required to be purchased, and, that the letter was not to be
confused with a solicitation.
A schedule of cash awards was noted at the top of the document in small lettering with only a
note of the prizes and not a breakdown of the odds. A lengthy "Consumer Disclosure" was noted
in small print on the back of the document. It noted that the "promotion" had begun on
December 15, 1995 and that it would continue to June 15, 1996. The total number of prizes
expected to be awarded was noted as 2,949,679; the number of prizes valued at over $1.37 was 5
(five)!
The "prizes" were only being offered to residents of Canada who did not live in the French
speaking province of Quebec. Other companies involved included "NCC Winners List", P.O. Box
4016, Council Bluffs, IA 51202-4016, USA, and "Direct American Marketers, Inc (DAMI)", at
16881 Hale Avenue, Irvine, CA 92714-5020, USA. While the 1-900 number was not mentioned
in the disclosure, below the disclosure, targeted persons were encouraged to use the number and
receive a variety of Discount Coupons free.
How would you know that this is a SCAM?
First, this IS a promotion.
You are being asked to buy a 1-900 service for a cost of US $4.99 per minute with a stated average length of call as 8 minutes; that is, US $39.92 (and likely to be longer and more costly). Thus, all the statements about no solicitation, no purchase or required payment - are lies. Anyone who responds by mail will not receive a reply. Complaints about delays in receiving such a reply, will be met with excuses about delays, backlogs, and further
encouragement to use the 1-900 number - if you get any response.
Secondly, whenever a company uses legal styled documents for promotional purposes it is selling
you image to persuade you to trust them. What have they done to earn that trust? They have
told you that some company you never heard of has entered you name in a sweepstakes at their
expense. Is this realistic? How long could any company survive by buying sweepstake or lottery
tickets for the masses?
It is a promotion because if you actually were a winner they would be sending you your prize without cost, delay or complication. The greatest cost to you, and an option which would have had to be stated at the time of your entry, was that you would have to go and pick up the prize. So the fact that the documents have been styled to look legal, is a fraud.
Thirdly, where are the companies located?
The names of the companies mentioned all "sound" official, are ALL located outside of the country of Canada (and therefore, difficult and costly to legally prosecute), most are in different states, and most have post office box numbers. When a P.O. Box number is used in the address, the use of a street address is redundant for the post
office. No one cross-checks!
As long as you have a postal box you can note your street address as anything.
SCAM perpetrators know that the use of a post office box alone on an address does
not inspire confidence in the general public. So, for the sake of persuasion, and deception, a
sophisticated street address is added - which may not even exist. If such an organization is not
located in your province or state, they are probably a SCAM. If they are not located within your
country or on your continent, it is almost a certainty that they are a SCAM.
Fourthly, what is the profit to the "judging organization"?
After all, they do not state who is operating the sweepstakes, how much the originators are being paid, or who is holding the prizes for legal distribution. Don't forget, ACG is a judging organization - they don't hold the prizes, nor have they bought the tickets, nor have they told you what your ticket cost. They are offering to
send you a cheque for cash - is there any other form of cheque. Redundant details are signs over
overselling tactics. If ACG was really a judging organization, they would only require a North
American 1-800 no charge number - like other legal operations. But what is their profit?
ACG state that they expect to circulate 2,949,679 notices.
According to their figures, they expect a 100% response.
If each "successful" response requires a telephone contact costing the target an
estimated US 39.92 (about CAN 52.00) the total take would amount to US $117,751,186. (or an
extra 30% in quantity of Canadian dollars)! IF all the prizes noted were paid out, the expense
would total 4,057,422.38 of which all would be for prizes of $1.37 except for 5 prizes totally
$16,369. That is a profit of US$ 113,693,763.00.
Of course, there are expenses:
the 1-900 number, the mailing lists (which are used over and over by the same perpetrators using different
company names and SCAMS) the mailing pieces, and the $1.37 cheques. Yes, the small cheques
will be mailed in an effort to keep you confident, and hooked, for the next time. A true judging
organization would not be making this amount of money for work which can be done by 3 or 4
persons over a maximum duration of 6 months.
Fifthly, does a well known legal firm hold the prizes in trust?
There is no legal way for you or the
authorities to ensure that ANY of the "prizes" will be paid out if they are not held in trust. That
is, if they were never assembled and paid into trust, they may never have existed. At any time that
the perpetrators feel that they have scammed enough, are tired of the complaints, or, are aware
that any legal authority is investigating them - they can close down and change company names,
change addresses, change states, or, if they are rich enough in their own minds - leave the country.
In legal sweepstakes and lotteries, monies are held in trust to cover all of the claims of the winners
before any are notified or become aware that they have won. This ensures that all legitimate
winners receive their prizes, regardless of the order of the award. This has proven true in
schemes where prizes are awarded sequentially; that is, they are not all awarded at once and the
sale of tickets or the notification of winners may continue until the closing date.
Some years ago, MacDonalds Corporation sponsored a contest with some large prizes and many
smaller prizes. Numbers were preselected for the prizewinners. If you got a ticket with a major prize number, you won the prize. The contest was a costly marketing experience for MacDonalds
and not to be repeated. The numbers were legitimately and randomly selected prior to the
promotion. Because the chances of winning were as random as the first 100 winners, the last 100
winners or any combination between - anything near the first option would be a disaster. And that
is what happened.
For a contest expected to run for perhaps 5 or 6 months, it ended in 1 or 2.
ALL of the major prizes were awarded in the early weeks of the contest, and, all were publicized
accordingly, and as expected. There was no longer any incentive for other patrons to participate
in the contest because only small prizes remained. If the ACG "sweepstakes" were legitimate,
won't it be foolish to spend a lot of money sending out notices if honest reporting might result in
the first 5 or 10 winners getting 100% of the prizes valued at over $1.37. Why would anyone
follow-up after that with an expense of US$ 39.92 to receive $1.37! Read all of the information
and ask yourself: What's in it for THEM?
Not wishing to be thrifty, ACG Independent Judging Organization sent out a Second
SCAM Postal Promotion within days of the first. This one had a little more greed and emotion
appeal. The address for ACG was changed to 1 Administrative Annex, P.O. Box 19659, Irvine,
CA 92713-9659 USA; no changes were noted for the other companies listed. In this package, the
forms followed the style of legal documents even more obviously. The envelope was marketed with
an official looking "Special Delivery" emblem even though it had been sent by regular surface
mail.
A notice was added to the envelope proclaiming "Official Business, Penalty for Tampering".
The 1-900 number was changed to 1-900-451-3976; the charges and the average charge amounts
remained the same. The "disclosed" prize list note more larger prizes, a total of 42 rather than the
previous 5, the same number of circulated notices - 2,949,679, and the same amount for most of
the "awards" - $1.37.
Of the new bevy of higher valued prizes, only 4 exceeded a listed value of $4,000.
Of particular note was that there was a merchandise equivalent listed as the primary
award now with the cash award as a secondary option. For example, an 1881 Morgan Silver
Dollar COULD be awarded, or, $1,373.00 taken in its place; 15 1927 Peace Silver Dollar awards
COULD each be exchanged for $69.00.
The attraction was that stating the material prize, it added credibility to the promotion.
New cars filled the top valued 3 spots, various silver dollar
collectibles filled the remainder, excepting the $1.37 award option. Like all other SCAMS of this
nature, the perpetrators require the sanction of the government and legal systems and
bureaucracies and the compromised spirit of the "mark" or person to be duped.
All effective SCAM operators seek to manipulate the legal, law enforcement, and administrative
or utility structures on which the citizen depends for protection and justice. To the extent that the
SCAM succeeds in defrauding numbers of persons, the government fails in its obligations to its
citizens.
First, this and earlier mentioned SCAM concepts could be made available to the
common citizen by way of direct feedback from the police departments, the post offices, and the
consumer agencies.
The mass media, in its obligation to serve the hundreds of thousands of
people who will be hurt by just one of these SCAMS, and contribute to the betterment of society -
could also have presented "concept" articles describing how such SCAMS work and why the
chances of improving one's economic circumstances are nil through participation.
Thirdly, the politicians are aware of these SCAMS, are charged with helping their citizens and passing laws to restrict such operations and provide the authority and resources to their policing and legal
authorities to stop its abuse of hundreds of thousands of their voters.
It need not be complex, as the legal industry seem only to able to bureaucratize it.
Simply preventing promotions from being made to citizens by out-of-state or out-of-province companies, or, of mandating that ALL of the award monies be placed in trust within the province, state, or country of distribution BEFORE the promotion begins, would be a start.
NONE of these groups have shown any interest in demonstrating this leadership and earning the trust of their constituents. Such lack of concern for the common person only promotes the SCAM industry and further destroys the confidence of citizens in their government and society. When confidence is lost politically, one of several things has historically happened in human societies: anarchy, civil war, dissolution, conquest by others.
What's your choice?
A person with a strong spirit cannot be SCAMMED.
Most individuals taken in by SCAM promotions like the above are financially desperate: unhappy with their income, unemployed, about to be laid off, uncertain about their employment, on welfare or social assistance, on a fixed income of decreasing value; a few, are simply greedy. Because of a lack of political will,
leadership and control, the economies of North America increasingly disadvantage the honest
worker who has followed the status quo of required education, steady work, and family life.
Increasingly, such persons face all of the options noted above. Without a strong spiritual
strength, contributed to by spiritual coping skills, such individuals are disadvantaged further with
material-based attitudes and expectations and requirements - which promote chronic depression,
despair, anxiety, and frustration.
Out of desperation, such individuals, who could have been
better prepared even for this, in their churches and schools, react to any suggestion of an
opportunity for self-improvement financially - no matter how foolish it seems. Many will not even
recognize that they have been scammed until they have lost monies numerous times which they
needed for food, clothing, rent, transportation to a job interview. When they do become aware,
their reactive personality is likely to build a new energy block of "never again" which simply
closes off their participation in life further and decreases their sense of self-esteem. If you want to
avoid all this crap, take the time to learn some spiritual expertise. A spiritually-directed person
can meditatively determine what is and what is not a SCAM in less than 20 seconds, BEFORE
opening the envelope!
1996 - During February,
The planet CHIRON will return to perihelion, as it does once every 50.68 years.
One of two largely overlooked planets in the Earth's solar system, Chiron
approaches close to Saturn and then orbits out almost to Uranus.
Astrologically, its influence on the Earth and its lifeforms may be expected to be subtle and long-term.
The presence of Chiron in an individual's natal chart will influence that or those areas with
characteristics described as discipline, severity, coldness, and, responsibility.
Mythologically, Chiron was given the responsibility of guiding the young to maturity; awakening humanity in time
to cope with challenging realities. Chiron was one of the more civilized and well-mannered beasts
of mythology. Friendly towards humans, Chiron was a protector who taught morals, music, and
medicine.
The last time Chiron was in this position was near July, 1945.
Humanity had a challenge at that time as to how its organizations would draw World War II to an end; how masses of injured and refugees would be cared for afterwards; how destroyed capital-based economies could be
recovered; how future wars could be eliminated; how cultures could gain an understanding of and
tolerance for each other; how humans could become more self-aware and compassionate to one
another; how humans could become more ecologically aware and self-responsible; how humans
could become more spiritually oriented and less idolistic; .... Chiron introduced a threshold of
opportunity for humanity and the human influence upon the Earth. Challenges were evident;
choices would have to be made.
Some of those challenges and choices involved the following:
1944:
- Europe-N.America: capital security > Bretton Woods > supremacy of $USA;
- UN: Dumbarton Oaks Conference > military elite veto > ineffectiveness;
1945
- Europe: military and economic ruin > reconstruction >optimism > debt;
- Germany: total military defeat > partition, reunion, economic leadership;
- Berlin: ruble> political anarchy > blockade > division > reunited > debt;
- Britain: close ties to the USA > military partnership > cultural decline;
- Earth: Imperialism > containment> Cold War > military industrial complex;
- Europe: colonization > decolonization > 7 million refugees, 60% die;
- USA: Roosevelt (liberal/moderate) dies > Truman (conservative/delegator);
- USA: nuclear weapons > used primarily to show power & exert authority;
- Earth: Potsdam Agreement > deception > extended German political anarchy;
- Canada: industry base & immigration > socialism > economic colonization;
- UN: World Bank and I.M.F. > promotion of capital-based economies & debt;
- Earth: Right to Self-Determination > denied by USA and USSR > Nazism;
- Hungary: Land reform based on revenge > anarchy > uprising > freedom;
- Poland: Lublin Committee, self-proclaimed govt. > persecution > freedom;
- China: anarchy > military autocracy > revolution> communism > capitalism;
- Japan: re-alignment of economy & politics by USA > economic imperialism;
- Korea: USSR-USA occupation > division > international war > armistist;
- SE Asia: freedom > re-invasion by French > civil war > international war;
- Missile technology: hoarded by USA-USSR > long-range & hi-tech weapons;
1946:
- Central America: plantation economy & autocracy > revolution & debt;
- USA: Ist test series of nuclear weapons > armaments development race;
- USSR: peace: added autocracy, bureaucracy, militarization > poverty;
- Yugoslavia: nazism > internal sovietization > Bosnia-Croatia War;
- Israel: promised & denied> terrorism> war> partition> nazism >terrorism;
- Philippines: corruption & authoritarianism > independence > corruption;
- Earth: Extraterrestrial contact: denial, concealment, conspiracy, ...;
- Persian Gulf: allure of oil > economic imperialism by UK/USA > Gulf War;
- Organized Crime: USA-Mafia conspiracy > steady expansion of black market;
1947:
- USA: peace: added bureaucracy, militarization, public deception > debt;
- Japan: demilitarization, poverty > strongest capital-based economy;
- 4th Conference of Foreign Ministers, Moscow: raised political tensions;
- ......
NOTE:
In the above listing, the meaning of "fascist" is "a uniform political activity which
promotes group homogeneity, military defense, nationalization of key aspects of the economy,
and, less-than-equal treatment of non-group members."
About November, 1894, was the still previous pass of Chiron.
Almost identical challenges for humanity were also evident then and choices would have to be made.
The policies undertaken on or about 1894 would lead to WWI and related difficulties and successes.
With the polices and choices made in 1945, the situation that was to be found 20 years later could almost have been predicted if it were not for the fact that humans and their governments DO have choices: to
change and improve, or to remain the same and expect a worsening (greater destructiveness,
greater hardship) of their history. Refer back for greater detail.
20 years after the 1894 passage of Chiron, WWI began - the war to end all wars; 20 years after
the 1945 passage of Chiron, USA involvement in the Vietnam War - the war of longest political
and military involvement by the USA - was escalated to total commitment. The cost of the
Vietnam War, in capital, relative to WWI was multiplied more than 100 times. The loss of life
was similar; however, in the second incidence there were many more injured and killed civilians.
As human history has been progressing from the year 1900, each successive major war results in a
higher proportion of collateral damage (murdered civilians). WWII is not part of this pattern,
other than that it ends with the same challenges which led to WWI, and, leads to full-scale
involvement in Vietnam. If such a major violent expansive war is to break out again, according to
the pattern, a global armageddon would result by 2016. Can humanity once again outlive civilian
complacency and the inertia of politics tied to the idol of capital? There have always been more
constructive options.
Possible challenges/considerations for domination of the next cycle include:
1995:
- Fish stocks: global cooperative control and restoration;
- Bosnia-Croatia-Serbia-Herzegovina peaceful re-organization;
1996:
- Health > constructive holistic approaches taught in all schools;
- Land possession > reform according to basic need and responsibility;
- Energy > reduction in requirement: self-sufficiency, low maintenance;
- Space exploration: moratorium until basic human needs met;
- Armaments development: discontinue & substitute civil engineering;
- Truth: dismissal of all secrecy classifications & record data user ID;

1996 - Between February 23 and 25,
The First World Conference on Auto-Urine Therapy is held in the western Indian state of Goa.
Organized by the local Water of Life Foundation group, 600 delegates from 17 countries would attend.
Many would be scientists and doctors. Some who were not, were quoted as follows:
I once thought it was a strange practice but it gives me and my wife tremendous energy and stamina
Retired Admiral L. Ramdas, former chief of India's Navy.
Former Indian Prime Minister, Morarji Desai, who died at age 99 last year, had disclosed that
he drank a glass of his own urine every day.
Also, actress Sarah Miles swore that the practice improved her health.
Originally promoted as a health practice by Hindu scriptures, J.W. Armstrong had reported,
in 1944, miraculous recoveries from chronic and often fatal diseases by the use of the
technique. Modern proponents argue that it is drug-free, costs nothing and is always
available. Several cautions and restrictions apply as were previously outlined in the second
history file.
1996 - On March 1,
An attack against Corruption within the Communist Party is issued by Chinese President Jiang Zemin.
These cadres ... don't work hard, and are hot for eating, drinking and having fun,
throwing banquets and giving gifts. ... They squander state money, indulge
themselves at nightclubs and even go gambling and whoring. ... Yet local officials
import luxury cars and build plush offices (while corruption goes on in the poorest
areas where peasants have little to eat and state-owned enterprises have trouble
paying salaries). ... What is going through the minds of these comrades? They can't
even control themselves or manage themselves, so how can they manage others?
(All Party members must resist the lure of) power, position, money and sex. ...
Corruption is a historical phenomenon and will not be completely eradicated in a short
period. All comrades must develop a long-term combat mentality and have a sense of
urgency
Zemin has been trying to counter an impression of shaky leadership with stiff words.
Mr. Jiang and other top leaders have called corruption a virus that threatens the survival of the
Communist Party. Renewed anti-corruption campaigns seem to be announced every week,
and penalties for those caught are increasingly severe. Just this week, the former chief of the
Communist Party, the vice-mayor and the police chief in the northern town of Taian were
each sentenced to death for accepting bribes totalling more than $100,000. Yet the number
of such participants does not seem to be diminishing. Close to 100,000 were disciplined on
corruption charges last year, and increase of nearly 8% from 1994.
Among those sacked from their posts was Chen Xitong, former Politburo member and boss
of the Beijing branch of the Communist Party. Mr. Chen is the highest-ranking cadre to be
stripped of his posts for corruption since Communist governing began in China. Newspaper
accounts indicate that Mr. Chen kept a mistress for 6 years, provided luxury housing for her
and her family, and amassed an unauthorized fund of more than $30-million in public money.
He is also charged for the high-profile scandal surrounding his protege, Beijing vice-mayor
Wang Baosen, who committed suicide last year rather than face accusers of embezzling as
much as $45-million. Mr. Chen has yet to be charged officially with any crime. Questions
have been raised in public by the China Youth Daily as to how Mr. Wang could have
spent so much money on his luxury villas, purchased plush apartments, rented hotel
rooms month after month and lived such a degenerate life ... how could he have done
all this without anyone knowing it?
According to some estimates, more than $16 billion a year, that is, 20% of the state budget, is
spent on unnecessary public banquets. In a poll of the most hated practices of government
employees by the public, banqueting at public expense was rated highest.
The once-popular mayor of Jianyang in Sichuan Province, regularly lauded for bringing an
"economic miracle" to the city, was sentenced last November to more than 10 years in jail for
taking more than $15,000 in bribes.
In Shenhai, Shi Shengju - celebrated many times as a "model worker" - was only months
short of retirement when he was found to have abused his union position in return for
thousands of dollars in bribes. He is likely to receive permanent retirement in jail.
Two transportation directors in the city of Chengdu were recently jailed for 20 years for
spending nearly $200,000 of public money on two prostitutes who became their mistresses.
Similar cases to those above are now appearing nearly every day in the newspapers.
A number of factors are believed to have contributed to a lowering of the moral standards
espoused by the Party. Trapped in relatively low-paying jobs, many officials feel perks and
bribes are their only hope to share a slice of China's growing affluence. Mao Tse-tung's many
revolutions to discredit cadres who voiced constructive criticism left the party with a
bureaucracy of individuals who were either passive order-takers, or, willing manipulators and
deceivers.
After Mao's death, the party increasingly became an organization to join for
personal gain rather than to support any belief in socialism: equality for all people. Deng
Xiaoping's acceptance of reform during his tour of the south of the country in 1992 both
launched the apparent current economic boom AND led to lavish public spending,
unrestrained use of government funds and unchecked authority for local officials all over the
country. While largely not admitted, the spread of organized crime throughout the country,
mostly by Party members, is a fact which has been a contributor for over 10 years!
The Berlin-based Transparency International organization, which seeks to uncover corrupt
business practices, recently ranked China second, behind Indonesia, as the most corrupt
among the world's 41 major trading nations. This is significant because the reality of
organized crime is high in many of these nations.
A survey of Chinese young people last year found more than 50% willing to pay bribes to
advance their own interests. While the term "bribe" may be euphemized behind words like
"participation fees," "acceptance fees," "special licenses," "consulting expenses," "facilitation
charges," "protection services," "referral fees," and many other similar references - the
willingness and expectation to pay such fees by the youth of all industrial nations is
mushrooming as job competition and lifestyle expenses continue to intensify and rise.
1996 - In the March edition of "Crisis Investing",
"Near Economic Collapse based on Government inability to control national debt" is the major topic.
The Fort Erie, Ontario, Canada report, cites the following as contributors to the eventual downfall:
- ... Canada's financial situation places its gross debt at between $850 billion and one
trillion dollars, almost twice the $510 billion the government admits to. ...
-
Paying off a $1 trillion Canadian debt would cost over $83,000 per taxpayer.
Paying off America's $17 trillion debt would cost $145,000 per taxpayer.
Since these figures represent many times the average annual Canadian and U.S.
household incomes, there's no way the debts can be paid off. That's why the United
States and Canada aren't just headed for bankruptcy. We are bankrupt - it just hasn't
been declared yet.
- ... it's not the debt itself that's killing the North American economy.
It's the compound interest. .. compound interest on the debt is growing at 8%. The economy is growing at 2-3%. Uh-oh!
- ... The inability to agree to even a halfhearted, half-baked deficit reduction measure has already had severe repercussions. It's ignited a 20% fall in the U.S. dollar relative to the yen and German mark since January.
- So every German and Japanese investor saw their U.S. stocks and bonds lose 20% - just like that. ...
Ronald Reagan had to raise interest rates just once in 1985 in order to send the dollar
soaring. But in 1994-95, after seven tries at resuscitation and there are still no signs
of life (in the economy).
... Recently in Russia, many people saw their lifetime savings wiped out as inflation
spread.
... Some estimate that the Japanese have lost over 400 billion dollars on their U.S.
investments alone. ... It will only get worse.
... forced to raise interest rates again to try to save our currencies. ... stock market will go down ... deficit will get even worse ... tax revenue will go down ...
unemployment and welfare (costs will go up) ... (contributing) additional interest (to
the national debt). ... Clinton and Chretien will ... flood the economy with money ...
hyperinflation of 100% or more. ... prices skyrocket ... savings become increasingly
worthless. ...
- There are thousands of land mines waiting to explode if someone accidentally steps
on one - or if things get hot enough to set one off. Some have already begun
exploding for practically no reason at all!
- ... derivatives ... bets on the future ups and downs of ... just about anything that fluctuates. ... Right now there's over $40 trillion in derivatives around the world. ...
The problem is ... they're often understood only by the people who created them. ...
Orange County, Barings Bank ... (failures). ... derivatives link many investments
together.
- When debt or circumstances become untenable, nations simply default on the bonds.
Or, as in Russia, a new government refuses to honour the bonds issued by the
previous regime. ... To believe 'it can't happen here' is to ignore both historical
precedent and today's economic realities
The author, Doug Casey, has been an impressive contrarian adviser in the past with many
examples of profitable investment strategies. He now predicts:
- the Dow will drop 62% - down to almost 1700 points;
- the TSE 300 will follow the example set by the Dow;
- mutual funds will be especially hard hit as savers bail out;
- mutual funds will lose even more because of derivative investment;
- bonds will lose all value;
- gold will exceed $1,000/oc;
- ...
If you have any capital left, the next 4 years may be a matter of survival depending upon how
and when you invest it and use it.
1996 - By March,
Climatologists have expressed concern that the Earth may be within 10 years of a major ice age.
Findings obtained from Arizona state tree rings, ocean floor sediment cores, and Greenland ice cores has provided the following results:
1. Over the last 250,000 years, global average temps have varied the most;
2. Global average temperatures before 250,000 B.C. were markedly warmer;
3. Since continental separation, warmer temperatures bring ice ages;
4. In "recent" times, ocean currents exchange tropical for arctic water;
5. Ice is "fresh" water and salt "sea" water is heavier and flows downward;
6. As global temperatures rise, ocean water circulation & polar melt slows;
7. Greenhouse gases and deforestation contribute to modern global warming;
8. Global warming will alter weather patterns and intensify weather extremes;
9. High ash dispersal volcanic eruptions will contribute to temporary cooling.
Continued global warming will precipitate greater ice build-up in the northern latitudes and higher
temperatures in the equatorial regions. Snowfall in the former could peak at an average of 9 feet
(3 metres) of continuous accumulation per year relative to the 3 feet (1 metre) accumulation per
year during the last 50 years in northern Greenland. Variations of deposition of snow in arctic
regions over the past 250,000 years have ranged between 1/4 inch per year to just over 9
feet/year. Ice caps expand as accumulations increase and polar to equatorial circulation of air and
water decreases.
A massive nuclear war would contribute to global cooling and reduce the potential for a near
future ice age. In contrast, the polar and antarctic ice caps could decrease resulting in a rise in
ocean levels, massive lowland flooding, and a greater stabilization of weather with a lower base of
average temperature. Massive crop failures would result and human requirements for heating and
cooking fuels would increase.
If there were massive underwater volcanic eruptions along the west coast of the Americas and the
east coast of Asia, ocean waters would heat markedly - from a climatic standpoint - weather
would become more turbulent as the atmosphere became more humid, massive flooding in the
Americas could be expected, and, further weather changes like those after a massive nuclear war
or considerable volcanic ash dispersion - could follow. Should both human generated (war) and
geothermal generated (volcanic) global climactic cooling take place - as warmer waters decrease
ice caps - the resulting crop loss and flooding conditions would become exaggerated.
The fundamental point to acknowledge is that in recent Earth history (the last 250,000 years),
massive climactic chills have been followed by short warm spells.
There have been 3 major ice
ages (global temperature coolings) in the past 150,000 years with the latter two since 75,000 B.C.
There are more factors (now human factors are included) in the present which can force either
global average temperature cooling or warming on a short-term basis. EITHER could increase
the likelihood of an massive ice age within the next 10 to 150 years.
1996 - On March 25,
The Comet Hyakutake first spotted by and named after a Japanese astronomer, Yuji Hyakutake, in late January, 1996, will make its closest pass to the Earth. Barely
on the edge of naked-eye visibility, the comet, travelling at only 35 km per second, will reach a
point 15 million km from the Earth. The tail of the mass of ice is hundreds of millions of
kilometres long.
1996 - By April,
Marilouise and Arthur Kroker, Canadian political scientists, have become renown media commentators on the cybertech culture. They have written the books "The New Ruling Class: The Virtual Elite", and "Hacking the Future". They recommend that television viewers keep a copy of Nietsche's "On the Geneology of Morals" near them and read from it often in order to keep a clearer perspective. They report the reality of television's influence as a colonizer of "soft" minds. That is, for the undeveloped human, television patterns the novice and
constant viewer into a character emotionally dependent upon a cycle of crisis and apathy.
News reports and documentaries continually and dramatically emphasize crises such that the
individual is alerted, threatened, withdrawn (as a spectator), and induced to feel anxiety, worry,
sadness. What would initially push a novice to paranoia leaves many viewers simply in a state of
blank confusion and anxiety. Reports of floods, fires, bombings, assaults, crashes, murders,
terrorists, wars, oil spills, chemical contaminations, assassinations, thefts, invasions, robberies, and
dramatized trials concerning brutality - are used to fill daily and hourly electronic news shows. If
there are not enough local disasters, the Earth is surveyed for enough dramatic events to fill the
scheduled time. Where an individual might have the capacity to do something constructively
about 1 or 2 events on a daily basis, faced with many, the choice usually becomes: none. There is
seldom any truly constructive suggestions put to the viewer or listener and thus, interaction is
discouraged.
Alternatively, mind-numbing, simplistic, intellectually juvenile and emotionally immature comedies
and talk shows encourage the viewer to "chill out." Media celebrities with usually less than
average exhibited awareness, intelligence and emotional maturity are presented as social models
and mentors. Soap operas and serials model apparent success by manipulation, deception, and
aggressiveness - while presenting an effective longer-term rationale which eventually finds every
participant to be a loser of everything they appear to have won or achieved. While there are
exceptions, these are clearly the patterns in the minority.
And patterns hypnotize.
So while "adult" concerns are presented in such a manner as to be overwhelming, copious amounts of
pseudorealistic material is presented to distract the viewer and degrade one's level of maturity.
Pseudorealistic, because it is often presented as opinion by an individual who is marginally familiar
with the topic, has no experience or limited exposure to the subject, and, is momentarily
committed in interest. The final statement is that the media networks direct and control public
opinion according to where they covertly and skilfully concentrate their coverage. And to the
extent that such political or corporate management is absent, the direction is one of anarchy and
the result is one of wasted and irrelevant achievements.
Commercials often serve to simply extend the either/or, crisis-apathy / distraction-denial mood of
the remainder of the broadcast. Since they are the intended money-making contributors,
tremendous financial resources are devoted to their design. Every method of visual and aural
attention distracting and numbing technique is used to deceive and manipulate the viewer into
purchasing the product and becoming addicted to it. For those designed to attract conscious
attention, psychologically pleasurable tunes are melded with brainwave sequenced beats, fleshed
out with provocative and dramatic visuals, and overlaid with strong affirmative hypnotic
statements.
Others are only used to target the unconscious - that follow-the-symbol pattern
association as-if-you-are-a robot part of the human brain. Here, the visual encourages the viewer
to "turn off" consciousness and open the mind without censure. Like a tape recorder, the content
of the ad is allowed to flow into the brain, there, to be packaged with appropriate visual and
auditory signals for the purpose of acting out on cue. Regardless of the rationalizations about
whether all this techno-conditioning is effective, billions of dollars are spent on it, and, increased
sales are frequently mirrored by its use.
The cyberspace superhighway of the Internet and neighbours has extended the television reality to
one of creating the illusion of an electronic elite composed of persons who establish and maintain their identity through the use of computers and networks to other computers. While truly
informative materials and an interchange between aware and informed individuals is the hype
which sells the access, the reality is that the majority of the information passing through the
internet is the immature, self-obsessed insecurity-biased pictures and descriptions or erotica, the
distant intellectualism of the theoretically experienced, and, the intense or juvenile emotional
expressions of those who may never learn the keys to constructive communication: listening and
feedback.
Most entries in the newsgroups qualify for little more than talk, talk, talk.
It isn't that the medium does not have a constructive promise, the difficulty is that any technology, for
humans, is only as beneficial as the user is mature and focused. And most of the user population
now is composed of humans who have little self-control and self-direction left because they have
been conditioned by television, newspapers, and movies, to believe that they can talk themselves
into a better world, or, that they have no control over the future so they may as well exploit the
present as if there is no tomorrow. How many persons keying onto the internet have a purpose of
finding something in particular which they know will definitively help them cope constructively
with the reality around them? How long will it take them to find it? Will they know how to weed
the garbage away from the relevant? Or, conditioned by years of playing poor resolution games
of digital competition, are they just there to play? What happens to your reality if you make play
your reality?
The internet is being promoted as a technological means of filtering out politics.
Yet such an intellectualization is revealing in how it demonstrates how far the general public has been drawn
away from Earth-based human reality. Is not the totalitarian harmonization of communication
globally to the English language not political? Is not the restriction of communication interchange
to the computer literate not political? Is not the lack of orderliness which forces the individual to
scan files of garbage in order to find something relevant a form of political distraction? Is not the
relegation of communication to capitalist affordability not a form of politics? Is not the addictive
ego-serving acting out so often viewed on the internet an excellent way for politicians to keep the
noses of the masses out of the political decisions which serve to destroy the ecology, increase
public debt, increase poverty and co-dependence, promote materialism and object idolatry, and
prepare the political administration for total dominance over the individual. The irony is that
technology is being used to infer a reality of humanity as simply a small village which can be
unified by electronic jungle drums.
But this isn't the reality.
Humanity consists of billions of people who collectively face questions of
survival which, at worst, require the collective determination of all to succeed. This collective
determination is being dissipated, redirected, and confused by an anarchic medium. Since
humanity began to develop mass media, it has historically been used to misinform, deceive, and motivate to destructiveness far more than its intellectualized promise of awareness and justice.
Spiritual focus, spiritual skills, and spiritual strength - the only foundations for peace AND
prosperity, continue to be set aside in favour of technical power in the hope of some magical
human-centred conquest of endemic fear and insecurity. Can 6000 years of failure be wrong?
1996 -
In his book, "Progress Without People ... ", David Noble notes the following:
There is no place left to hide (from computers).
Warehouses, grocery stores, offices, factories - they're all computerized.
That means there is no place for many workers to go. ... There's no question that new kinds of jobs are being created, but any sober estimate indicates that the number of new jobs is far less than the number being lost.
If you compare the number of people who have found jobs building robots, for
instance, with the number who have lost jobs in automobile manufacturing or in the
steel mills, it's minimal. ...
We're caught up in a belief system that prohibits any serious rational evaluation of technology.
If you're critical, you're labelled a lunatic.
Any worker with the capacity to think independently has known for 3 decades that technology
replaces many less skilled jobs with a few higher skilled jobs. The profit motive and market
competition have consistently held dominance to produce an economy ever increasingly
dependent upon technology and the energy and lubricating resources required to feed it.
Invariably, the high tech worker has very low survival skills outside the world of technology.
1996 - April 7 ...
was the 3rd consecutive day that North Korean troops invaded the DMZ, a demilitarized zone between the borders of North and South Korea. This places the military officers in the region under the greatest state of readiness for war in 15 years.
Both North and South Korea have been dictatorships for decades prompting the training of
intolerant authoritarian military forces which are more concerned with following orders and
believing their officers than in thinking independently and striving for peace. At least 35,000 USA
troops are posted to the area to assist the South Koreans. North Korea has nuclear reactors and
atomic weapons, and, like China and the CIS, it has an economy which is failing and inadequate
for its population. South Korea, unofficially, also has access to nuclear weapons.
The political context of North Korea is that a long-term ruthlessly constrictive authoritarian
Communist leadership which has promoted Korean nationalism and Communist purity is facing
increasing dangers of civil unrest. Increasing severity of famine, the increasing recognition of the
cause of the long-term low standard of living as being attributable to government policies, and,
the increasing knowledge that South Korea is rich and abundant by their standards - are pushing
North Korean leaders towards desperation in maintaining control. Added to this is an uncertainty
between the more recent political heir who is the nation's leader in the international media and the
longer-term military and Communist Party leaders, who over the past decades have built a strong
and tightly unified political administration.
Unification of such individuals into a Nazi-style enthusiastic fighting force has been a repetitive
pattern in human politics and war for the past century. In any large, high density, industrialized
political entity in which the human population has become dependent upon capital-based
economics (wages and salaries), persistent economic insufficiency has led to civil frustration and
demand for change. This point is usually reached because the authority-based political system has
been too inflexible and unresponsive to cope with the difficulties which have arisen. With political
modification being discounted as an option because of its threat to the power of the authorities,
only two obvious-to-humans options are recognized.
If allowed to continue to deteriorate, a civil war or a political coup will take place.
Proactively, and military leaders are severely trained to adopt such strategies as aggressive responses to problems, the political authorities can deceive or manipulate their troops and civilians away form local concerns to that of international anxiety or frustration. If the latter is chosen, the population can be sensitized to expect the arrival of an external enemy (invading country or an ecological disaster) and be paranoically prepared to counter same with concentrated effort and force.
To this end, North Korean troops and civilians have been recently conditioned by their
government controlled mass media to believe that the South Koreans are planning to invade their
nation and enslave them. Both South Korean and North Korean troops have been trained, and
recently stimulated, to hold the attitude that if the other should step onto their territory they will
be militarily destroyed with great hate and ruthlessness. At this point, differing squads of North
Korean troops have been sent into the DMZ on each of 3 consecutive days "to find South Korean
troops who are in the process of mounting an attack" against the North. Inability to engage these
"subversive" forces has increased the frustration and paranoia levels of the North Korean troops.
Conversely, South Korean troops are seeing what appears to them to be preparations for North
Korean troops to invade the South. While each strategy, if borne out in military action, is suicidal
- each army has been trained to believe that death under such circumstances would raise their
identity to that of heroes. Meanwhile, the North Korean authorities can better retain their
positions. For them, loss of 40% to 50% of their population would be a blessing: a reduction of
their population density problem.
Expectation for military success by the North Koreans is heavily based on the myths which
international political leaders and the mass media have promoted over the past 50 years.
These include:
1. Nuclear weapons can win a war;
2. A nuclear first strike wins a war;
3. No one opposes a nation willing to use nuclear weapons;
4. The destruction caused by nuclear weapons can be rebuilt;
5. The nuclear contamination involved can be easily coped with;
6. Modern nuclear weapons are "clean";
7. War leads to economic renewal.
Some of the fallacies of such myths are as follows:
Nuclear weapons have never won a war.
Japan was trying to surrender when it was bombed.
Neither it nor Germany had the physical resources to sustain a war for longer than 2 - 3 years, and each was into their 5th year of action. A nuclear first strike can only be guaranteed to win a war if you are the only
participant who has such weapons. Since the time when two nations possessed nuclear
weapons, it has been a promoted deterrent that if one was attacked - it would retaliate with
ALL of its nuclear weapons. There was no opposition to a nation willing to use nuclear
weapons when it was the only nation which possessed them.
For much of the past 40 years,
groups of nuclear weapons armed nations have made alliances against other groups. It is not
an equation of 1 versus 1; rather, it is an equation of many against many. Compared to the
maximum sizes of modern (after 1979) nuclear weapons, those dropped in 1945 were
minuscule.
Contamination from two relatively tiny bombs is immeasurable compared to that
of 50 to 100 megabombs and would extend over large regions as ecological sterility. Finally,
modern war (since 1960) has never resulted in economic renewal compared to what could
have been accomplished during a comparable period without war and with constructive
policies. Nuclear confrontation no longer can lead to economic renewal; rather, it is more a
probability that the result will be mutual economic anarchy. Even massive conventional
military confrontations in modern (1980s and 1990s) have resulted only in civilian massacres,
tremendous destruction of non-military property, and, long-term economic and health
disasters.
The challenge for humanity in the next decade is whether the human political and military
leaders who govern 75% of the Earth's human population and who believe the myths noted
above will chose war to answer their domestic difficulties, or seek other options which
require massive changes in perceptions, attitudes, policies and actions.
1996 - On April 12,
Hussein Mohammed Hussein Mikdad from the village of Farun, blew off his legs and a hand while making a bomb in the Lawrence Hotel, located in Arab East Jerusalem.
Mikdad was known to be associated with Sheik Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah, the spiritual guide
of the Hezbollah, a group seeking to drive Israeli troops from southern Lebanon. He had recently
spent time in the Iranian embassy in Beirut and had flown on a Swissair flight from Zurich on
April 4. He carried a British passport, stolen from a French resort, in the name Andrew Neuman.
He had stayed several days in Tel Aviv before moving to Jerusalem.
He was found to have had less than 1 kgm of RDX, a main component of Semtex, a plastic
explosive. A Sony multiband clock radio, modified for concealment, and serving as a bomb timer,
was found in his belongings. The intended target was an El Al (Israeli) airliner which he had
planned to board from inside Israel, expecting security to be less than in foreign flight origin
locations. Mikdad represents 1 of more than 300 now active suicide bombers associated with the
Hezbollah.
1996 - On April 17,
The Korea Central News Agency, North Korea's official state news agency, notes the following:
The South Korean puppets must know that if they regard the North's warning
as empty talk and display war hysterics, they will face an irrevocable disaster.
Repentance always comes late
1996 -
Dr. Sven-Olof Andersson of Orebro Hospital, Sweden, a cancer specialist who has concluded a study of "prostate cancer" subjects noted that men with a highly active sex life are more frequently the vicims than those with reduced libidos. Other factor increasing the likelihood of prostate cancer were found to include early onset of puberty and surgical sterilization. He added:
We don't think it's the sexual activity in itself; it might be some type of hormonal factor
It has been noted for the better part of a century that men have the physical capability to increase
or decrease their sexual frequency relative to opportunity for expression. That is determined by at
least the following factors:
1. Health (mobility, strength, stamina, compulsiveness);
2. Personal level of libido (felt desire);
3. Access to sexual partner(s);
4. Partner(s)' level of expressed libido;
5. Degree of cultural restriction or encouragement.
Most of the above factors have been notably encouraged during the past 50 years in North
America, Scandinavia, Europe, and many industrialized economies. It has been argued that sexual
orgasm can be one of the least costly and most socially acceptable forms of ecstatic experience
easily (potentially) attainable by humans. The reality that it is also one of the shortest and most
frequently abused and abusive is seldom acknowledged. While the use of the birth control pill and
a multitude of other anti-pregnancy technical aids provided less fear and concern over the
possibility of an unwanted pregnancy, none were as effective as the vasectomy in enabling
spontaneous "unprotected" natural sexual activity. While these personal factors contributed to
greater sexual indulgence by men, cultural factors also added their weight.
With $50 billion being spent over the past 50 years, through the mass media, to promote sexual
awareness, sexual focusing, sexual obsession, sexual expectancy, sexual manipulation, sexual
association, and sexual provocativeness - any urban male without an earlier and increased libido
relative to the population of a century ago is an oddity. Direct, indirect, subliminal - images and
associations fill the majority of the magazines printed, books written, movies produced, television
soap operas and sitcoms - in addition to most advertisements and most "popular" songs. Add to
this the relatively recent legal preoccupation with sexual abuse, sexual assault, homosexual issues
and sexual infidelity - after centuries of denial - and one finds the individual virtually smothered
with sexual stimuli.
The result, for men, has been excessive quantity at the expense of quality.
Divorce statistics mirror this trend and the incidence of prostate cancer - almost unheard of at the
beginning of the century - is now a major reason for male mortality after age 50. Decisions were
made by those given the power: industrialization, market expansion, product attractiveness,
military justification, research anarchy and ego conviction - for no consideration beyond profit.
The decisions were made for your life, with your support.
1996 - On April 30,
Boris Yeltsin, Russian President, dismisses most of his pro-reform members of cabinet and replaces a pro-Western foreign minister with ex-spymaster Yevgeny Primakov, a friend of Saddham Hussein. Yeltsin faces a strong election challenge from Communist Party leader Gennady Zyuganov in June. Yeltsin is trying to rebuild Russia's political alliances with China. Recently, Yeltsin has affirmed China's legitimacy over Taiwan and Tibet.
Sino-Russian trade has grown to US $7 billion/year, the Russians are building a natural gas
pipeline to the Yellow Sea, and the Chinese are buying $ 3 billion worth of Sukhoi-27 fighter jets
this year.
Meanwhile, more capital is spent on the war in Chechnia than for the national health
care system. Longevity of the Russian worker has declined from age 65 to age 56 within the past
5 or 6 years - predominantly the result of alcoholism (the average consumption is 1/2 bottle of
vodka per day , endemic cigarette smoking, up to 40% infant deformity resulting from pollution
and malnutrition, endemic poverty, and inadequate health care.
1996 - By May,
A Major Eruption of Mount Vesuvius of a magnitude comparable to that which destroyed the ancient city of Pompeii almost 2,000 years ago, is now predicted by volcano experts. Gordon-Michael Scallion has been prophetic in his Earth Changes Report in warning for several months of potential eruptions from Mount Etna and Mount Vesuvius in Europe.
Scallion is also warning of a series of magnitude 10 earthquakes along America's west coast to
take place in the next few years. During June, scientists studying Mount St. Helens, a volcano in
Washington state, are warning that it is ready to erupt again. Waters in the Pacific Ocean off the
American west coast have been found to have warm upwellings recently indicating new volcanic
activity is occurring on the ocean floor - a possible influence on future crustal shifts, earthquakes,
weather changes, and above-water volcanic eruptions in the region.
1996 - On May 1,
Holoman AFB, New Mexico became the first USA military base to be leased to a foreign nation, Germany.
Now a Luffewaffe air base, it will have the same diplomatic and national status as a German embassy, it will be German territory. It has been chosen by the German Air Force as a training centre for German fighter jet pilots because of its advantages over native Germany. Weather conditions in New Mexico are often ideal unlike those over Germany. Noise abatement laws are increasing over German territory in Europe whereas few are in effect
anywhere near Holoman. Flying airspace near Holoman is also expected to be much less busy and
less dangerous to practice and train in than the airspace over European Germany. After 4 decades
of USA forces using bases in Germany, this will be the first reciprocated agreement.
The occupation of the base will begin with 12 Tornado fighter jets with their pilots and support
crews and is expected to build to a total of 66 Tornado jets in 1999, accompanied then by 900
personnel.
1996 - On May 13,
A 200 km/h Tornado killed at least 443 people and injured more than 32,000 within a 20 minute duration as it swept across part of Bangladesh near the town of Tangail. 80 villages were flattened as well as a school. More than 10,000 mostly mud-and-straw huts in the area were destroyed. Telephone lines were snapped and many trees uprooted making communications and transportation difficult. In some cases tin roofs broke into pieces and flew
about injuring people. State radio initially underestimated the death toll at 22 and no government
assistance was sent for at least 24 hours.
1996 - On May 13,
Donald Coxe, in his article "Dangers on the info highway", in the Business section of the "Globe and Mail" newspaper noted the following:
It took a long time for this bull (buying, confident) market to move from belief in the
magic of compound growth in earnings to belief in magic. That's one reason this bull
market has been so durable and so reliable. Although investors gradually became
optimistic about the earnings power of American companies, and gradually became
willing to pay higher and higher multiples for that presumed power, their collective
valuations remained within the realm of the natural.
Widespread belief in the supernatural powers of businesses has always been a sign that stocks were ready for a
painful tumble. It took so long in this magnificent bull market for the slow, steady
disappearance of pessimism, and its displacement by a slow and steady growth in
seemingly pragmatic optimism, that Wall Street has experienced its longest-ever rally
(increase in prices) without a 7-per-cent correction (decline). ...
A new billionaire is born almost every month as some Generation X entrepreneur lets
the public in on a portion of his company that was itself born during the Clinton
presidency. If the company has earnings at all, they are both minute and irrelevant. It
goes public at a huge multiple of sales, believing buyers snap it up, and the stock
quadruples or quintuples.
Why not? exult the Wall Street investment banks whose blowout underwritings of
sand castles at the price of microprocessors make everyone rich. The Internet will be
the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Buy before it's late.
At the core of this cult is classic Wall Street folly: "It's different this time."
Marc Perkins, a smart investment manager from Florida who's regularly quoted in
Baron's (a major investment newspaper), doesn't agree. In a chat in Beverly Hills last
week, he pricked the Internet bubble.
'Those who say we've never seen anything like the Internet are all wrong,' he laughed.
'What was the biggest stock market star in 1929? Radio Corporation of America
(RCA).'
Mr. Perkins noted that the believers then rejoiced in the miracle of radio.
Radio was for real, but paying 100 times earnings for RCA wasn't a real investment
concept. By 1932, the stock market was down 95 per cent and the reality of the
company as a growth investment had arrived.
Too bad so few of the 1929 believers were around to participate.
Internet companies sell at more than 70 times sales, and infinite multiples of earnings,
making the 1929 evaluation of RCA look conservative. ...
The world of computers is far bigger than any of its most enthusiastic pioneers
imagined, but Univac, the world leader in 1950, didn't live long enough to taste
success. ... Holes in the ground are safer than holes in cyberspace. ...
1996 - By mid-May,
"Where Are All the UFOs?" would become one of the most recent examples of misinformation presented to the public.
The information deceptions and manipulations of this suggestive documentary are common to most such mediums and will be increasingly utilized for a variety of rationalized justifications. Some of those will be defined in greater detail here to assist you in determining when information is being truthfully being presented to you and when you are being manipulated to support the status quo elite. Technically, the process used is HINDAC
CONRUANX ( H ypnotic Ind uction of A uthority and C ompliance by C onditioned R esponse U nder
Anx iety). Simply put, it is designed to hinder your actions and con you when you are most susceptible - confused and anxious.
Co-sponsoring by the "A&E Network" (1-800-423-1212) gives it credibility which the viewer has
already been conditioned, by largely accurate and informative programming, not to question. For
their lack of awareness and support of this work, they must be held equally responsible. Their
benefit is to sell copies of the program to the public for US$ 29.95 plus shipping and handling and
both reaffirm the rising public interest in the UFO phenomenon, exploit it, and, wittingly or
unwittingly participate in a conspiracy to dupe the public.
The A&E Executive in charge of production was Steven Lewis and the A&E Executive Producer was Michael Katz.
Criticism after mass publication is useless because by that time the money has been spent (commitment) and
the viewers have been conditioned (manipulated). It is ten times more difficult to uncondition a
human than to condition one. Yet, if humans are aware of the methods used to manipulate them,
they can engage that awareness against such techniques. This entry is thus an analysis.

Numerous technicians and assistants are also responsible for their part in doing the work for
money and fame rather than for professionalism and honesty. Although in the modern American
culture, professionalism is often overwritten by technical expertise. German "professionalism"
during WWII resulted in the construction of gas chambers and mass cremations; British
"professionalism" resulted in mass civilian bombing of the Germans; American "professionalism"
resulted in the needless incineration of 2 cities by atomic bombs; and, the list could go on.
Numerous "archival sources" must also bear some responsibility for their enabling an
organization to misuse their materials and "testimony" in a manner which discredits their known
professionalism or perceptions - for fame and fortune.
Crucial to any HINDAC CONRUANX production is a constant tone.
This is the hypnotic conditioning part of the work.
It is a constant attitude or perception which is purposely repeated in tone, word, and image to the viewer.
Subliminally, it is not what you say, but how you say it which makes the impression.
Print is largely tone deaf - except where emphasis is added by overdramatization, inaccurate and fantasy-driven statements, and special formatting conventions such as the use of bold, underlined, italicized and capital lettering. The latter are usually obvious to the reader and serve an organizing function. Not so with either an audio or an audiovisual medium.
Inflection of voice can change the meaning of human words from positive to negative,
from the name of one object to the name of another, from encouragement to pessimism. To
determine the tone, you will have to listen to it yourself. What you will likely acknowledge is that
most statements regarding the possible existence of UFO phenomenon or related experiences are
presented with a tone of disbelief, scepticism, or astonishment. Conversely, statements and visual
which suggest that such phenomenon and experiences are either the result of expectation, fantasy,
or hoax - are presented with a tone of authority, matter-of-factness, and confidence.
What is more obvious, and can be easily analyzed here, is the script.
Are there any phrases which are being repeated when they are neither necessary, accurate, nor relevant? This "documentary" purports to be providing a "balanced" investigation of the subject, a scientific viewpoint, and,
"objective" information. But what is really said? Methods of verbally inducing a state of
scepticism and negativity include the use of the following words:
1. offer, suggest, contend, may, said to be, claimed, believes, said;
2. legend, myth, anoint, story, craze, tales, mass delusion; fantasies;
3. strange, mysteriously, alien, legendary, utopian, bizarre; imaginary;
4. where!, so why not!, said!, reported as serious!, something!;
5. come to be known as, on what humanity calls, supposedly, purportedly;
6. still, best of all!, however, was reported to have!, amazingly!;
7. some refuse to simply believe ..., in the public imagination;
8. apparent, too good to be true, fake, seems to have been, appeared!;
9. typically, they've all been, it's become customary, paranoia;
10. farmer, farmer and wife, lawnmower repairman, salesman, stressed out, immigrant, self-styled philosopher, publisher, woman, persons only interested in ..., musician, artist, lived a dull mundane sort of life.
Other wordings which inspire confidence in an human authority-based culture include the
following:
1. scientists (search, find, explained, know, described, concluded);
2. allowed, ushered in, harnessed, weeded out, dismissed, ultimately;
3. photo analysis, equipment, computers, thermal imaging, power;
4. many people, government, archives, Air Force, if he is correct ..;
5. Dr. ... remained sceptical, announced, took charge, stated;
6. (sanctioned) secret investigations; "official" research, projects;
7. science offered explanation, classified as, judged to be,
8. evidence, statement, report, easily explained, documents, thesis;
9. General, Major, Director, PhD., Dr., investigator, physicist,
historian, investigative arm, neuroscientist, geologist.
What is easily noted by the viewer who takes any time to reflect on the quality of the presentation
is that with very few exceptions there is a marked dichotomy between presented UFO evidence
and eyewitness reports and the presentation of sceptical and derogatory opinion. It is the
consistency of this trend throughout the report which makes it an example of HINDAC
CONRUANX misinformation. While the use of each qualifying adjective can be rationalized, all
of those used to describe one attitude could be interchanged with the same rationalizations for the
alternative. Indeed, a less judgemental report would state facts, qualify opinion separately, and indicate relevancy in regard to the amount of information available. This is not done.
While many points could be detailed, perhaps several will encourage you to reflect on the others.
There is a marked differentiation between the "labels" of authorities you are expected to accept
without question and those which are presented, in the tone of the presentation, as being dubious.
Ask yourself seriously, if you had to place your life in the hands of the class of "average" persons
noted or under the authority of the elite class noted, which would you chose? Speaking from
experience, and having occupied many of the positions on BOTH sides of this equation, I know of
peers in each category to whom I would forward respect, and others whom I would not trust any
task to. Many of you will not have the fortune to have such a wide range of experience, so let me
put it another way.
The technological and bureaucratic elite positions noted are responsible for all
wars ever entered into by humanity - without them, you could not have a war. The "average"
worker is the mass of society, and, according to how he or she is informed by those entrusted to
do so, society either becomes more balanced, constructive, unified, stable, contented, peaceful, ...
or, more stratified, destructive, competitive, self-centred, anxious, violent. When you marry, you
trust your life to your spouse, not the local engineer. Any human can be mistaken, misdirected
and misinformed. Those who worsen in their choices rather than improve - fail. It's all a question
of where you want to be: "safe" and ignorant; or, informed and self-directed.
Beyond the labels, if you have the opportunity or inclination to view the presentation, you can
note the visual and audio representation of authority in a consistent manner intended to induce
your compliance to the conclusion desired by the producers. (Do they believe it, or, were they
hired to "construct" it?) Almost all of the elitist "authorities" are pictured in suits and ties, frequently against a professional photograph enhancing background, with clear presentation
quality titles on the screen assuring you of their name, its spelling, their official designation, and, if
impressive, the company they work for. They all speak calmly, confidently, and in the best status
quo English.
Conversely, most of the "witnesses" are portrayed in casual clothing, obviously
pleased with the attention they are being shown, rural and colloquial in their language, often
excited or obviously emotional, and, seldom pictured against an enhancing background or with
any displayed label. Again, it is the consistent single-mindedness and pre-judgement of the
presentation which qualifies it as an example of compliance by conditioned response to the
mindset of a determined authority. If the presentation were balanced, either all of the participants
would have been similarly dressed, labeled, and interviewed, or, there would be an equal mix.
Resources are not a problem. The facts presented in this report have informed you that there are
thousands of persons from either category of "authority" which could have been chosen to
promote one view or the other. This was not done, intentionally.
Let's touch briefly on the facts.

What can be noted from this listing is that few of the dates are complete, the books are without
author names, newspapers are frequently unidentified, or, chosen for their public notoriety, and in
all cases the viewer is only shown a passing glimpse of the title or headline. When information is
presented which is out of chronological order, you can be reasonably confident that the presenter
is trying to manipulate your perception into adopting his or her conclusion: they are not seeking
to inform you - they are seeking to persuade you with elaborate rationalizations.
Unfortunately, American television presentations have become commercialized to "sell" the
viewer repetition flash images: a form of subliminal advertising developed in the 1960s and
constantly perfected since. The technique is to show you enough of an image long enough for
you to perceive it but not long enough for you to study and evaluate it. By this method, the
human brain only has time to acknowledge, acknowledge, acknowledge: nothing is censored or
criticized. This has long been known as repetition hypnosis. Show a person a series of photos
which develop an association, fast enough and repetitive enough, and the individual will act on the
association AS IF it were true. Unless.
If the person is aware of the technique and so instructs his or her brain to ignore or critique such
presentations, than the individual will be less "hypnotized" by the presentation and remain more in
control of the viewing result. Now that you know how it works, you can defeat its manipulative
intent. It cost millions of dollars to develop and improve this technique and billions have been
spent utilizing it to effectively promote both useful and useless products and services.
The only reason that a headline or book cover is "flashed" before a viewer is for the sake of
"startle" impression. That is, without a reference to the content, and without facilitating your
reference to the content by revealing the author, source, and publication date - the presenter is
treating the content as useless and using the title flash to create an impression. The nature of that
impression will largely be formed by the tone and style of the rest of the presentation.
Intentional misrepresentation of fact is another way in which the listener-viewer is manipulated.
It is assumed by the producers, and largely correct, that only a small minority of the public have, or
will, take the time to personally investigate the information available and to do so to a great
enough extent to be able to arrive at a truly informed position. Of the over 60,000 UFO reports
documented in the past 50 years, the producers have selectively chosen two types. One, they
have chosen only to show individuals which they believe, by their non-elite social position, their
casualness, their emotion, and their language - will convey less authority than their chosen
"experts." This is a total skewing of the reality. They could have just as easily have presented a
whole show of nothing less than aerospace scientists, physicians, American President's, Generals,
military and commercial pilots, and other "professionals" - all of whom have testified, at length, in
detail, and with sincerity and commitment to UFO-related experiences. Why were these more
"credible" sources avoided?
Secondly, several well-know UFO sightings, presented here with a minimum of photographic
footage and very little detail - are another apparent selection. Obviously, the Meier story and
photographs could not be ignored. Rather than present the circumstances with some degree of
relevance, the producers have chosen to show a tape loop which makes one of Meier's pictures of
a passing beamship appear to sway back and forth. The only comment FOR Bruce Maccabee, a
U.S. Navy optical physicist, is that he supposedly believes that the object photographed was "a
relatively light object suspended by a string and swinging like a pendulum around a small model
tree." Maccabee has just been interviewed and recorded going through a number of procedures -
in which, in part, he states that he cannot find any evidence of suspension. If these are
Maccabee's feelings (not scientific fact) why could he not state them himself? Why would a
professional leave himself open to criticism by rationalizing a conclusion (ie, the "model tree")
when he never went to Switzerland to inspect the site to determine what was real? Other people
did go.
The true scientist NEVER draws a finite conclusion about anything.
A principle of science is that any conclusions drawn are only tentative theories based upon the best understood rationalization of what has been observed at a particular time. Thus, in reality, each "scientific" conclusion
should be noted with a date stamp. Every scientific field demonstrates a progression of
understanding. What is regarded as the "truth" (really just the best guess) in any decade or
century is often later modified, and, sometimes reversed. Professional scientists, because the
industrial societies revere them as technological priests, know that they must carefully qualify
their findings. Longevity within a trade can result in tremendous innovation; just as easily result in
single-minded misinterpretation, intolerance, and ignorance. There are persons who carry the title
of scientist and have never produced anything significant in 30 years; others, are not even titled
"scientist" yet have contributed considerably to changing perceptions within science within a
matter of months. These questions beg to be asked: "Did Maccabee draw those conclusions?"
and "Is Maccabee a self-centred technician or a scientist?"
The selective use of information and opinion, and the selective exclusion of contradictory opinion,
is another favoured disinformation technique particularly favoured to the audio-visual medium. In
essence, the presenter briefly touches on the most highlighted opinions contrary to the thesis to be
presented. Then, information and opinion highly favouring the theory which the producer wants
to persuade you to believe is copiously detailed. Every presenter must adhere to some form of
selectivity in order to present a report which does not include all known observations and
opinions.
The defining point, for an honest presentation, is to provide what is "relevant".
Relevancy does not categorically dismiss the testimony of witnesses to an accident or a crime in
favour of theories presented by non-witnesses who have never been to the site. Meier's work is
impressive, and, as presented in PROJECT EARTH, there are many particulars regarding
statements about it, about the man, about the researchers and about the examination of the
evidence and the technical expertise, or lack of, involved in that examination, which greatly
impact upon one's understanding of the facts: none are presented in the A&E report. Many other
pieces of photographic evidence are presented early in the video, largely without factual comment,
and then buried with copious and detailed references to hoaxes.
The reality not presented, for example, is that of the hundreds of crop circles now being found
every year, less than 1% have indications of having been made by humans. Why then would the
A&E report devote most of their coverage of crop circles to one hoax? In addition, there are
numerous possibilities for the origin of so-called crop circles - some of which are specific weather
patterns. Why was this not mentioned. There has always been examples of fraud, deception and
hoax in every human field of endeavour - including science, religion, politics, the military,
business, medicine. Why should the producers or the public be surprised that a few examples are
present in the field of UFO research? The question is relevance - how many relative to the whole.
Throughout the A&E report, there is this pattern of irrelevancy: presenting minority findings and
opinions as majority fact. Why are the producers working so hard to induce you into a
compliance with the status quo of the power elite?
The preponderance of idiosyncratic intellectualizing by supposed experts (an expert proves his or
her ability by their actions not by their title) is also used to bolster the theory of the producers and
lend credibility to the video. Amber stains on the clothing of abductees (an abductee is anyone
who believes they have been abducted; it is their reality) is mentioned along with the fact that such
stains have been analyzed for content. The viewer is not informed of what this content is - other
than that it is "ordinary." The universe has a uniformity of elements and structure. Why is the
viewer being given a prejudgment that whatever these elements are, they are "ordinary," and
where did the assumption arrive from that extraterrestrials never use "ordinary" materials? Just
because you are more intelligent or privileged, does that mean that you can no longer drink
water?
In a similar manner, an academic (not based on personal experience) perspective is conveniently
proposed by Dr. Thomas E. Bullard, titled a "folklorist." Mr. Bullard projects that humans have
never had contact with reality and that in each era fantasy rules their lives. This refutes all known
history, IF, you look at the detail in history. What history conveys is that unexplainable real
experiences in an era will be described and interpreted according to the ability of the language
used (which may be minimal) and the awareness of the individual (which may be minimal). To the
extent that these are somewhat common experiences or concerns within the society, these
"memories" will be transferred from one generation to the next - each generation further removed
from the reality and the experience.
To the extent that individuals perceive the use of these accounts as beneficial to them personally by attracting or consolidating respect, authority and power from others - they chose to manipulate the record in their favour. At some point, the account becomes nearly unintelligible ritual with the reality and the significance of the original experience largely being lost. Then, an academic arrives and determines that because he is unaware of this pattern, and because his concern is substance and intelligibility rather than
significance and relevancy - these accounts are now a justification for assuming that such
information never was more than imagination.
This academic deception is possible only because the culture has promoted learning about how to make and use weapons, how to follow rituals (orders, procedures, regulations), how to manipulate and victimize others, ...) than on learning from past errors and success, becoming capable of abstract reasoning, and developing spiritual
skills. What the producers are saying by their actions is that they believe that the public is so little
informed and so unaware that they can easily put this and other concept over on them.
The copious references to the research of Dr. Michael Persinger, at Laurentian University
represent a variation on this theme of academic persuasion over experiential reality. The basic
theory presented is that all 60,000+ UFO phenomenon reports (that doesn't include the estimated
500,000+ unreported experiences) are the result of the human brain being influenced by the
release of geological source energy during tectonic movements. While lots of technical gadgetry
and pseudo-neurological description are interspersed with sophisticated graphic design and
motion control, the audience is prepared for an "experience" by a subject identified as Mike Segal.
We are led to believe that this "one" subject both mirrors actual results and is representative of the
experiment. At no time do we have anything to suggest that Segal is nothing more than an actor
playing a brief part. It is very convenient how he "senses" many of the feelings frequently
described by abductees recounting their experiences. The producers, with confidence, produce
one example and neither they nor Dr. Persinger note that any other subjects have been tested,
what the results of those tests were, if a report has been completed, or if a report will ever be
published. Isn't this stretching your confidence a lot?
Persinger's enthusiasm and the single-mindedness of the producers doesn't stop there.
His experiment consists in influencing the human brain with 8 evenly spaced solenoids which produce
an electromagnetic field which is "less than that of a hair blow dryer." Persinger reasons that
these energies are sufficient to induce hallucinations. He also reasons that they are comparable to
those electromagnetic fields produced by tectonic transfer released energy. He later notes that he
is constructing a computer-generated program to determine if there is an association between
tectonic shift (earthquakes) and the location of abductee reports. Where is Persinger starting
from?
Easily available "facts" provide us with the following details.
There has been no research done to determine what strength and nature such tectonic released energy takes. Persinger has nothing more than fantasy and a guess as to the presence, form or strength of such energies - at least none was presented. If electromagnetic energies of the less than the strength of a blow dryer were
adequate to induce hallucinations in the average human, everyone in a modern city would be
walking around "spaced out" all day. The mass of such daily energy influence is a collection of
those EM energies radiating from all cars, hundreds of thousands of motor-operated appliances
and machinery, hundreds of radio transmitting stations, cellular phone transmissions, electrically
operated mass transit, fluorescent lamp ballasts, thousands of courier 2-way radio transmissions,
and other sources.
Another fact is that abduction reports have originated in every state in the USA whether they have ANY geological predisposition to tectonic movement. New York City is described in the video as the source of most abduction reports - a lie. And in refutation of Persinger's basic theory, New York City has recorded few earthquakes over the past century. The viewer is then introduced to Persinger's intent to investigate the correlation between tectonic disturbances and abduction reports locations. Shouldn't this have been a starting point, not an end justification? Any programmer knows that you can make a computer arrive at any decision you
want: computers follow the instructions given them; they are only as accurate and as relevant in
their operation as the instructions programmed into them. Do the producers really think that the
average viewer is this inexperienced, uninformed - gullible?
The predisposition for modern scientists to be field exclusive frequently either leads to
fundamental assumptions based on ignorance of long accepted theories in other disciplines, or, to
the suggestion that their elite-by-title authority is being used as part of some coverup or denial.
What is becoming a popular rationalization in anti-extraterrestrial presentations is the anti-relativity concept that no other lifeform can or ever will be able to travel faster in space than humans have devised. While this exhibits the ethnocentristic pride of humans in considering themselves the undeniable recipients of the most intelligent species award, sponsored by themselves, it is neither relevant nor constructive in the consideration of the possibilities of reality. As far back as the 1920s, practical astronomers and practical physicists were aware of Einstein's Theory of Relativity. In accord with the theory - much of which has been verified since, time
stands still if you are travelling at the speed of light through space.
What that means is that after accelerating to the speed of light, a space traveller could go to any destination in the universe with no further progression of biological time. American and Japanese physicists have been working on this possibility of "ultrarelativity" travel since the late 1970s. If you remember the information
mentioned early in the report, particularly derived from Meier's writings, the possibility that some
extraterrestraial lifeform has achieved this technically is high. That basis theory, resulting research
and potential reality is not only ignored in this public "documentary" - it is replaced by 19th
century reasoning projected by a late 20th century academic astrophysicist.
The viewer is told how the marvels of human aerospace technology have resulted in the satellite
Voyager II being the fastest (human-designed) spacecraft deployed to date. Its speed has allowed
it to reach the planet Uranus in 9 years, that is, half way across the solar system. It is further
estimated that it would take Voyager 100,000 years to reach the nearest other star system and any
lifeforms present within it. This "speed" has been achieved by humans within 30 years of
committed research and development; by a species which was effectively in the stone age 10,000
years ago. We have reports, and the possibility of the reality, that a number of other lifeforms
have exceeded those efforts.
The Pleiadians are reported to be 100,000 years "ahead" of human development; able to accelerate their spacecraft to the speed of light in a period of 4 hours, and, arrive home minutes and 4 hours of deceleration time later - numerous light-years away. There is nothing in the reality of astrophysics research and relativity theory which disputes this possibility. These possibilities, one would expect, would be elementary concepts to a modern trained astronomer, astrophysicist, aerospace researcher, UFO academic, or futurist. The A&E video
asks the public to believe that humans are still in the dark ages of aerospace reality. Why?
In the video, "hypnosis" is accurately qualified as a technique by which a poorly trained inductionist,
or a well-trained manipulator, can elicit imaginary memories and insert post-hypnotic realities -
this fact is conveniently forgotten when the producers wish to push their theory. The 1977 test
mentioned (Has it ever been tested? Is there nothing more recent?) has a Professor of English and
a physician hypnotically inducing memories in their subjects. To their surprise (?), many of their
subjects recall data which they expect them to recall. When Budd Hopkins, an artist, uses the
same technique to "relax" his subjects and obtain "blocked" memories, the viewer is cautioned by
Kevin Randle, not a hypnotist, on the dangers of "confabulation" by the subject. Do we have a
double standard here?
More analysis could be offered which substantiates this video as a recent example of HINDAC CONRUANX (Hypnotic Induction of Authority and Compliance by Conditioned Response Under
Anxiety). That anyone would spend so much, endanger the image of a major information
network, and mount such an obvious deception must encourage the perception of a conspiracy.
Who would gain if there were such a conspiracy? With the popularity of the disinformation
series, "The X-Files", other documentaries suggesting government cover-ups, persistent requests
made to government representatives for an investigation of government activities, rising civil
disorder, decreasing confidence in government authorities, and, an increase in animosity against
the NSA-CIA-FBI-ATF organizations - it would be easy to assume that either, all, or a more
senior authority than the latter was calling for a modern day equivalent of the know previous
cover-ups publicly displayed as the Project Blue Book, the Condon Commission, the GAO
Report, and others. Since these agencies and authorities have made it their specialty to deceive
and manipulate the public for over 50 years, they have more resources and expertise at covering
up and concealing than the public could ever have at revealing.
The bottom line is that if you want the truth, you have to work for it: become informed, become aware, become spiritually skilled, become experienced. You can't do any of those by expecting any human authority to sit
you down and give you "the facts of life" in a deceptive and manipulative technically sophisticated
one hour presentation in which you are only required to sit and absorb what is flashed before you.
The above has been a definition of some of the common techniques used to create modern
disinformation resources. More will appear. Beware. They will want your commitment - to
dependency, to servitude, to passivity, to intolerance, to technology, to war. It's your choice and
your future.
1996 -
A joint protocol restructures the Caspian Pipeline Consortium and provides the foundation for the development of a 900-mile pipeline from the Tirgiz oil field in western
Kazakhstan to the Black Sea port of Novorossiysk. Within a month a purchase agreement would
be signed between Mobil Oil, of the USA, and the Republic of Kazakhstan involving a 25%
interest in the Tengiz oil field. Estimated to have recoverable resources of a least 6 billion barrels
of petroleum, the CIS republic needs cash to develop the field and it and Russia need the oil.
With Russian demand and Russian nationalism rising, what would happen if the field were
developed at USA corporate expense and then nationalized by Kazakhstan under the duress of the
CIS, which is led by Russia?
1996 - On Sunday, May 26,
An Asteroid measuring 1/3 mile in diameter and travelling at a speed of 37,000 mph missed hitting the Earth by 279,000 miles.
Had the path been a little
closer, the Earth's gravitational pull would have both attracted the asteroid into a greater possible
collision course AND would have accelerated the asteroid further in speed through the force of
attraction. At its rated speed, it could have covered the interim distance in a period of 7.5 hours.
There are 1700 known comets and asteroids big enough to potentially end civilization with one
impact by exploding enough dust into the air to block out the Sun for a long enough period of
time so as to considerable change the Earth's climate (long-term) and weather (short-term).
1996 - By the end of May,
Drought in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas states reached its worst level in 60 years with no precipitation since the previous fall season. Expectations had already reached a 50% loss in crop yield with 1 in 7 farms likely to be lost to bankruptcy. The price of produce had increased by 15% at the market, and, temporarily, a decrease in market prices for meat had declined up to 50% as farmers sold cattle they could no longer feed.
Most failed agricultural civilizations in the recorded history of humanity have neglected to
maintain an emergency supply of feed for periods of drought, which, climatically, could be
expected to last for at least a year's duration periodically. Stored resources, either in grain or its
capital substitute have been allowed to drop so low in the USA that during the period noted 15%
of those involved may become destitute. In the past, that would have resulted in enslavement to
their creditor.
1996 -
Drought in China's Wheat Producing Belt has parched 7 million hectares of crops and resulted in the lower reaches of the Yellow River in Shandong province drying up 5 times since January. Persistent drought continues in parts of Spain, Portugal, Tunisia and Turkey.
1996 - Late in May,
"The Future of Urban Employment", a report by the United Nations agency "The International Labour Organization" (ILO), deputy director-general Katherine Hagen, -
to be presented at the July UN Habitat Conference, noted the following:
By the year 2000, one-half of humanity will be living and working in cities, with
developing countries accounting for the major share of the world's new urban
population. These people will need jobs if the new cities are to develop as centres of
economic opportunity and civilization rather than zones of inequality and misery
It went on to add that only a generation of productive employment can save the big population
centres from overcrowding, hunger, disease and crime - as well as militarization and racial
segregation, which are a growing feature of cities in the United States and other industrialized
countries. With rates of unemployment and underemployment both climbing, the report predicts
that 1.2 billion people will be looking for work by 2025. It suggested that if politicians continue
to leave job creation to market forces alone while implementing tight fiscal policies the result
could be social unrest and a rise in political extremism.
1996 -
Russia is building its Arsenal as it agrees to buy 32 SS-19 nuclear missiles, 44 nuclear capable TU-160 Blackjack bombers and TU-95 Bear long-range aircraft from capital-poor Ukraine. Since the breakup of the Soviet Union, Russian does not have the same wide-ranging military control. Centralizing the high-tech military arms within the Russian borders will re-consolidate the military power.
1996 - By June,
A Gigantic Freshwater Antarctica Underground Lake had been discovered by scientists from Britain and Russia.
Located beneath a glacier, Gordon Robin of the Scott Polar Research Institute would note that the lake has dimensions comparable to that of Lake Ontario, located between Canada and the USA, and, that estimates of its longevity were considering an age of 1 million years. It is noteworthy that for almost 30 years the surface of the Earth's moon has been totally mapped yet basic formations on the Earth's surface are still being found in 1996. The survival of humanity will be determined more by how much is known about the Earth rather than how much is known about the moon.
What is still unknown is the fact that this subsurface antarctica lake has been formed by volcanic
heating of the underside of the glacier during erratic durations in the past 110 years, not 1 million.
Other areas of the antarctica ice sheet are weakening and may break free from the continent
during the next 5 years. This could result in a substantial modifcation of climates, sea levels, and
the Earth's rotation.
1996 - During the week of June 7,
Sandstorms and high winds destroyed half the cotton crop and much of the fruit crop in China's northwest province of Gansu.
Long stretches of power lines were collapsed and an 80-km long irrigation canal was buried by the storm which left the sky over the ancient city of Dunhuang a blood red colour.
1996 -
Internet Hackers continue to penetrate military and other government information services to post their own data and modify what has been posted by the host. Most recently, the Indonesian military's Internet home page, "Zambian", Lusaka Post newspaper's electronic edition, and, various Chinese sites were affected by hackers or government closures.

Clyde Kendzierski, writing in "The 70% Solution" newsletter reports:
Stock prices look like a (3-legged) milking stool teetering with 2 broken legs. Its
only a question of how long investor optimism can continue to carry the load. The
historical average of stock prices divided by annual earnings (the p/e ratio) has been
around 15. The ratio ranges from around 10 (extreme pessimism) to 20 (extreme
optimism). Today the ratio is at 19.63. Realistic value lies somewhere near the
middle. When the market starts heading back to reality it will probably overshoot by
at least 10%. Dow 3950 here we come

Martin Zweig, "The Zweig Forecast" newsletter, notes:
In the past 6 months, net sales of U.S. equity funds totaled $101 billion. That's
slightly more than in the entire first 36 years of recorded data through 1990 - the time
the last correction of 10% or greater ended. In other words, 83% of all of the money
originally invested in stock funds has never seen a 10% drop in the stock market
(yet)
1996 -
Investor's Business Daily reports that only 1 investor in 5 could correctly answer 7 of 8 basic investment questions.
More than 44% of investors age 65 and older fell in the least financially literate group.
Many of them believe that mutual funds are protected against loss by FDIC insurance (and they are not).
1996 -
Mary Anne Aden, recently noted in her "Aden Analysis" financial newsletter:
A recent poll showed that 1/3rd of investors believe that government bonds are
guaranteed not to lose money (they are not) and 1/3rd think that diversification in a
mutual fund eliminates risk (it does not; it may reduce risk). Indeed, more Americans
than ever now have their life savings exposed to the most over-priced, highest risk
market in history
1996 -
Martin Burns notes in the "Bank Credit Analyst":
The buying frenzy in U.S. stocks increasingly resembles 1987, as investors ignored
deteriorating fundamentals in their scramble for capital gains. Signs of speculative
excesses abound. The new issues market is explosive, flows into equity funds
continue to run at record levels and margin debt is at a secular high. A buy-on-weakness mentality is firmly entrenched and there is tremendous pressure on
institutions to be fully invested.
There is no way to judge how high the market will move when it is in the grip of a buying mania.
However, the October 1987 crash was sudden, giving investors no time to exit the market.
We believe that a secular peak in equity prices may be several years away.
Nevertheless, the current market cycle is overheating to the point that there will be enough of a correction (drop in prices) to cause severe distress to those investors who are pursuing a buy-and-hold strategy and
plan to remain fully invested through the cycle
1996 - During the week ending June 21,
Massive Floods inundated villages in Yemen, northern Pakistan and southern Afghanistan, Morocco, Algieria, Ghana, and over 100 villages in China's Guandong province.
1996 -
China is supplying Iran with almost complete factories for the production of chemical weapons, U.S. intellegence sources have reported. Chinese business leaders are greedy
for huge profits and the Chinese economy is desperate for capital to afford supplies to aid
recovery from environmental catastrophes which have destroyed housing for millions and
decimated the crops for this year. Iran, with a Muslim political leadership, vows to destroy the
European and North American peoples which are considered heathens, warmongers and
economic vampires.
Remember, the perception which most Asian, Middle Eastern and industrially poor countries hold
of North Americans is what they read in their newspapers and what they see on their televisions.
After the fashion of North American newspapers, those in the noted countries headline riots,
murders, rapes, outbreaks of disease, storm casualties, marriage and family breakdown, dramatic
incidents of abuse, homosexual demonstrations, political deceptions, and increasing racial,
minority, and right-wing political unrest as typical of the culture. American-produced television
soap operas, dramas and sitcoms have dumped 20 years worth of portrayals of the average
American as living in material luxury, working at a minimum, participating in marital infidelity,
deceiving and manipulating others, behaving irresponsibly, having a fascination with guns and
violence, expressing little respect for either themselves or others, and having no concern for
anyone or anything beyond themselves. Is it any wonder that they believe that North America and Europe are hell on Earth, populated by the children of the devil - too evil to be saved, and too
dangerous to be allowed to survive?
1996 -
The largest importer of religious Idols in Canada boasted a catalog of 5,000 items including crucifixes, rosaries, statues, souvenirs for First Communion, Confirmation, Baptism, jewelry, etc. :
Central Import Office (O.C.I.) Inc.,

Province of Quebec, J4B 7M1
1996 - By July,
"The Report of the United Nations Commission on Global Governance", the result of a 3-year study, was issued as a 410-page book, "Our Global Neighbourhood". Fundamentally, it repeats the idealistic and intellectual foundations of the "Enforced Peace" of the League of Nations - which resulted in World War II. Implementation of a global government by the year 2000 is demanded.
It is simply not feasible for sovereignty to be exercised unilaterally by individual
nation-states, however powerful. It is a principle which will yield only slowly and
reluctantly to the imperatives of global environmental cooperation. ... Although
people are born into widely unequal economic and social circumstances, great
disparities in their conditions or life chances are an affront to the human sense of
justice. ... The atmosphere, outer space, the oceans and the related environment and
life support systems that contribute to the support of human life ..
- will become "global commons" which a UN Trusteeship Council of 23 individuals will be
provided with control over. All existing 300+ international environmental treaties are already
administered by the UN.
1996 -
A Prophesy by ??? indicates that this year will be a dramatic year for land mass events including flooding in Louisiana and Texas, USA, followed by a New York City earthquake.
1996 - By August,
A Tokyo, Japan Earthquake is predicted to happen with considerable severity.
In 1923, a 5 minute earthquake destroyed 1 million homes and resulted in 142,000
killed. Historical records suggest that, on average, Tokyo receives a severe quake every 70 years.
25% of Tokyo is situated on loose subsoil making the geology difficult to work with to safeguard
against such destruction. Despite widespread earthquake preparation seminars, most Japanese
have under-rated the seriousness of the threat in order not to cope with feelings of fear. Dense
housing, closely spaced housing, and gas heating are expected to add to the devastation through
fire. Large propane tanks are located beside a number of apartments. One third of Tokyo is
expected to be destroyed: 500,000 strengthened homes and 40,000 fatalities.
Japan has heavily invested in North American and European securities (bonds and stocks) and
companies and such a devastation could result in a trillion dollars being repatriated from foreign
markets to fund reconstruction. Such an economic impact on the West would result in a stock
market crash and lengthy recession. It was only determined in more recent times, that Tokyo has
been built on the intersection of 4 geological plates - making it one of the most potential locations
for recurrent quakes.
1996 - As early as the fall season,
A Global War could be started by the CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States), formerly the Soviet Union.
Maria Esperanza of Venezuela, has become known over the past decade as a prophet, healer, visionary, and mystic. She has received spirit visitations since the age of 5. Many supranormal
incidents involving her have been witnessed by numerous people. These include levitation, being
surrounded by a fog, having rose petals fall around her from the sky, having a budded rose
emerge from her chest and bloom, rapid healings of illnesses as dramatic as spina bifida (August
12, 1994), bilocation (being in two locations as the same time), and others. She believes that her
gift of healing was bestowed on her from the age of 15.
During 1995, she spoke of warnings for the future:
a) an hour of decision for humanity was approaching;
b) a global war would happen when it was least expected;
c) the war would be begun by an attack from the Soviet Union;
d) a plague of new diseases which kill in days, not years, arrive;
e) humanity would experience great turmoil;
f) there would be a great spiritual reawakening.
1996 - As early as the fall,
A War involving the CIS, China, and region is prophesied by Josyp Terelya.
Josyp is a Ukrainian who was imprisoned at the age of 19 for the crime of practising a religion (Catholicism) considered to challenge the authority of the state. For the next 23 years, Terelya was tortured, had his hands broken 5 times, was attacked by convicted murderers, was put into a freeze cell, and spent 9 years in solitary confinement. He avoided execution which ended the lives of perhaps as many as 5,000 other "religious" prisoners.
Many of the cells he was kept in were so small that he could not sit; frequently they were poorly
heated or not heated. A "freeze cell" is considered a form of slow execution. At a prison 100
miles northeast of Moscow, Terelya was placed in a solitary unheated cell, stripped of most
clothing, and, had cold outside air ventilated into the cell. Ordinarily, most captives freeze to
death. In a state of hypothermia, Josyp prayed to the Catholic Blessed Virgin for help. With
eyelid frozen shut, he felt an intense light shine into the room and warm him. When he could open
his eyes, he saw a beautiful luminous woman, felt intense solitude and goodness, and, a prophesy
was revealed to him.
The Soviet jailors noticed the light and on investigating found that the cell was warm.
They removed Terelya and accused him of using yoga or some other form of biofeedback to effect the
changes. He told them that he had been saved by a visitation. They placed him in a psychiatric
hospital. French President Mitterand and USA President Reagan both spoke in Terelya's defence.
Meanwhile, he promoted a Ukrainian human rights group. Eventually, he was expelled from the
USSR/CIS to Canada, where he now lives in Toronto.
The prophesy revealed to Josyp Terelya includes 200 factors since released by the Vatican.
He has met with the Roman Catholic Pope at least 36 times and has spoken before the USA Senate
and House legislative sessions in addition to the Pentagon. Some of his received prophesies
include these:
1. A war will involve the CIS, China, and regional states;
2. There will be fires all over much of the CIS;
3. There will be a great flame in southern Russia;
4. "Vladima" will launch a war against Israel;
5. Events will seem to be going well in China/CIS at that time;
6. Parts of the southern USA and California will sink below water;
7. ....
1996 - As early as the fall,
A Third Universal Struggle (War) as prophesied by a Bavarian cowherder, Stornberger, almost 2-1/2 centuries earlier, could begin.
Some of his former prophesies have included:
A) The beginning of WWII in 1939;
B) The destructive influence of a man named "Hitler";
C) Hitler and his followers would lose WWII;
Additional prophesies by him which will likely apply to this War are:
D) Entirely new weapons and "artificial" guns will be used;
E) More people will die in this war than in all previous wars;
F) Gigantic catastrophes will occur;
G) Nations will enter into the conflict "with open eyes";
H) Everything will become different afterwards;
I) In many places the Earth will be as a cemetery;
J) The 3rd Great War will be the end of many nations.
In the era of Stornberger, muskets were new weapons.
The suggestion of the use of airplanes, missiles, drones, nuclear bombs, and communications devices and their jamming - would have been cause for a declaration of insanity if Stornberger had described them.
With the complexity and the killing power and capacity of the weapons systems of major
countries today (1996), it would be conceivable that 125 million people could be killed in a
matter of 6 days. A full scale nuclear strike by or against the CIS, USA, or China, could
reasonably result in this number of deaths if one considers a near complete disruption of
institutional services including transportation, utilities, and medical.
Regardless of who began the war and who received the brunt of the damage, it would be
reasonable to expect that the nuclear power stations, nuclear arms depots, biological and
chemical warfare supplies, and many major cities - would be heavily damaged or destroyed.
The potential for global contamination from such acts would be high, as would the potential
for a devastating backlash at humanity from the environment: air pollution, water pollution,
food supply loss, insect and virus pandemics, virtual elimination of electrical power, septic
system failure, and other similar industrial and mass society dependencies.
The suggestion that nations would enter into such a conflict "with open eyes" is an indication
that extremist political groups whose members feel either of the following have assumed
leadership or control over the technology required to carry out the prophesy: a sense of rage
over perceived injustices; pride over religious indoctrination calling for intolerance,
obsession, and murder; hatred directed towards racial or national groups of people which the
individual(s), through both denial, projection, and reality - hold responsible for their material
depravity and dependency.
From "final vengeance" to "holy war" to "ultimate victory" - all are
potential motivators for hundreds or hundreds of millions of people to mount what in essence
is a suicide attack. The rationalized or brainwashed reward for the participant is perceived to
range from peace in death, access to heaven as a martyr, and, final justice. In ALL such
situations, a person or persons who perceive themselves to have been denied their dignity and
frustrated in their salvation - will seek to find it through the DESTRUCTIVE means which
they have been taught to place their Faith in.
By extending the influences of the above outcomes of such a war, it is easy to accept that
within several years the environment, the human population, the climate, and any political
organization would have undergone extensive change. If nuclear bombs and nuclear reactors
had exploded they would have left cemetery districts. If nerve gases or biological weapons
had been disbursed, additional regions would effectively look like cemeteries. If the result of
such human activities had so isolated large cities from the supplies and services which they
required to exist - those cities would become as vacant as cemeteries. If the result of all this
vengeance, pride and hatred had precipitated a series of major earthquakes, tidal waves, and
volcanic eruptions - even more regions of death would scar the surface of the Earth. It is
possible.
And in followup to Stornberg's final prophesy, a FEW of these occurrences would indeed
result in the end of many nations. With massive death and disease and a fractured
infrastructure, the concept of a nation would often be reduced to a practical consideration of
a band or tribe organization. Of course, with awareness, self-direction, faith, cooperation,
sharing, forgiveness, and planning - there are other choices.
1996 - As early as the fall,
The Potential for CIS Military Dominance could be realized, as predicted by "Cheiro" in the 1920s.
Other predictions he made that came true after his death in 1936, include:
a) Mussolini would attack Libya, (1939);
b) The Coming of the second World War, (1939);
c) The fall of Communism, (1990-91).
What may occur now, or soon, is the only prediction which Cheiro phrased as a CHOICE, or,
opportunity. The new Russian Federation, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS)
may now become more militarily powerful than the USA, IF, it has been able to weather its
difficult times. Perceived from the western nations, this is impossible. Within the CIS, the
reality is as follows:
A. Everyone is familiar with the Communist ideology (intent);
B. The collapse of the USSR has permitted a "testing" of capitalism;
C. "Capitalism" has confirmed their fears of worse inequality;
D. The new capitalism has become the scapegoat for the old weaknesses;
E. Mass media has promoted an image of American material excesses;
F. Jews are now stereotyped as capital lenders who rob one of profits;
G. Acculturated feelings of paranoia & victimization are now greater;
H. There are widespread feelings of despair and hopelessness;
I. An acculturated attitude of enemy annihilation in defeat is strong;
J. Nuclear power station accidents & loss have intensified the above;
K. Environmental catastrophes have intensified the above factors;
L. Political pride has increased jealousy of the USA re: Iraq/Bosnia;
M. Slavic nationalism has increased to counter regional ethnicity;
N. Troops are so emasculated that they will follow any order;
O. A first strike acting out of rage by the decisionmakers is likely;
P. Slav ethnic enemies have been the Chinese and Jews for centuries.
Q. The Russians have a non-nuclear doomsday weapon.
Living in fear and oppression and poverty all of one's life and being educated to believe that
all of your problems are the responsibility of other peoples, and, depriving one of the benefits
of constructive spiritual coping skills, and, giving people an "opportunity" which is made to
seem simple yet fails - all encourage the participant, like the slum child, to react in
desperation. A socially and politically dramatic response in a technological society can be
effected by as little as one or two persons. Technology permits autocracy by a minority; its
absence makes war and autocracy impossible. The slum child whose spirit is broken has no
quandary about breaking "moral" or any law.
1996 -
Cassandra Musgrave, who had experienced a near-death experience during a water-skiing accident in California in the late 1980s, saw a vision of a following 20-year period of
history. While being dragged by a tow rope underwater and drowning, Ms. Musgrave felt that
she was travelling through a dark tunnel which then opened out into a wide expanse of stars, as if
she were in outer space. An Awareness of the 1992-2012 period conveyed to her the sense of
human history being accelerated during that period, partly according to natural changes in the
Earth.
Perhaps as early as 1996, she envisioned the east coast of the USA, including New York City,
experiencing earthquakes and geopositioning changes. Incidents of a later nature seen by her will
be noted below.
1996 -
Elaine Durham, an American who had experienced a death experience, received visions while she was in a state of declared death. She had a stroke, lost consciousness, was
found, and was taken to a hospital emergency ward, where she was jolted back to life
momentarily twice by heart shock paddles. She experienced herself running across a field towards
a group of 5 to 7 waiting people. At least 2 of the people she recognized as having died in
previous years. She then found herself in a space filled with thousands of diamond-like sparkles;
she was one of them. Then, she saw visions of the future of the Earth, including the following:
a) a series of earthquakes, centred in the Pacific Rim;
b) icebergs breaking up and moving into warmer area;
c) ocean waters rising & leaving huge islands in place of continents.
Elaine awoke in a morgue on a cold gurney and found tears running down her face.
Her story was recorded and broadcast, along with that of others, from late 1995 on a
televised program on prophesies. The series of earthquakes seen may begin as early
as the fall of 1996 and can be expected to continue through 1997.
1996 -
The Koran prophesies that "Judgement Day" will be: Chapter 14: Abraham,
On the day when the Earth is changed into a different Earth and the heavens into
new heavens, mankind will stand before Allah, the One, the Almighty. On that day
you will see the guilty bound with chains, their garments blackened with pitch, and
their heads covered with flames
This description is highly suggestive of a nuclear war.
1996 -
Serena Sabak has predicted that global temperatures will plummet an average of 36 degrees during 1996, starting off a new Ice Age that forces hundreds of millions of people to
flee the Northern Hemisphere - or freeze to death. Numerous other "spirit guides" predict earth
axis shifts near the year 2000.
The decrease in temperature could be brought about from the effects of a nuclear war and/or
many or large volcanic ash eruptions. Having people need to flee from either the North or South
Hemisphere, rather than from both towards the equator, would only be identified with an axis
shift - which would influence half a hemisphere negatively.
1996 -
Nostradamus is believed to have predicted that changes in the Ozone layer would promote a marked increase in the frequency of skin cancers this year.
1996 - During 1979,
Gordon-Michael Scalion, an American electronic communications consultant lost his voice.
During his recovery, one evening, a spacewoman "floats into his room and dictates" a variety of details and observations. His voice returns and his gains the capability to see auras. His past level of awareness, rooted in the physical-rational world of science, he finds displaced by a new awareness which enables him to enter trance-like states and see visions of the future. He "saw" that:
Geological changes will occur abruptly in the USA;
Volcanic eruptions and earthquakes will occur in sequence;
Tremors will occur across the USA to Boston and Buffalo;
There will be massive changes in the oceans.
Part of California will fracture and fall away into the ocean.
1996 - As early as this fall,
The prophetic visions of Jessica Carde, an American, may begin to be translated into reality.
While practising low diving from a springboard, Jessica had hit the back of her skull and been stunned almost unconscious before she disappeared below the surface. She perceived light emanating from a tunnel of light and felt a sense of intense well-being, lightness, and love. She received visions of several near future occurrences which she would find would take place shortly after her recovery.
One, concerned the suicide of an uncle.
Dragged from the water and given CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation) she felt herself "jolted"
back into Earthly awareness and felt disheartened, temporarily, at the loss of the spiritual feelings.
Several years later, she and friends were tubing down a river, when she accidentally almost
drowned again. On this occasion, she perceived glowing light beings who opened gates to the
future. They unrolled a scroll which appeared to her to be inscribed with Arabic or Greek
characters, writings quite unlike those of English. This time, Jessica found herself shooting out of
the depths to the surface, following which she swam to shore. Thereafter, prophetic visions would
continue to appear to her. One of her first such visions was of the occurrence of a "series of
earthquakes along the Pacific Rim".
1996 - November:
A Walk-In predicted, before 1984, that:
(236) ... during the 1990s the American people will knowingly elect a Walk-in as president. ...
He will not emerge as a strong contender until 1992 or 1996, but he will become a world leader
who will harness the energies of the people and guide them aright
1996 - Late in the year and through 1997,
The Rotation and Tilt of the Earth will have been so influenced as to result in a displacement of the core magma so as to initiate a marked increase in the geological activity in the "Ring of Fire" surrounding the Pacific Ocean. This is a string of active and moderately active volcanoes which extend along the west coast of the Americas and the east coast of Asia through Japan and the Philippines. Since 1993, volcanic activity in this region has been increasing. Massive activity could result in climate changes, appearance of new volcanoes and islands, volcanic reactivation, and, land subsidences and uplifting - accompanied by earthquakes, both frequent and large.
