Grab the blame

A wise instructor in Cary, North Carolina told us a story about how to accept blame, even if an incident is not your fault.

He talked of a person driving down the street and having a car slam into them from nowhere. It is acknowledged that it is no fault of yours whatsoever. But he said you’d be wise to say that this accident would never have occurred if you had not left your driveway.

Rather than blaming the other person ,mentally put the blame on yourself. It is more healthful than falsely exonerating yourself. You yourself can have the pleasure of walking away from the incident carefree and clear minded. You also have not created a quandary in your life and a false image of innocence.

Vicksburg Still Suffering

It was very evident on my first trip to the town of Vicksburg and its battlefield that something was not right here. It was 160 years ago that a sizable portion of the community perished defending their beliefs. But a dismal atmosphere hangs in the air today.

But shouldn’t that defeat wear off after a while. Not here. The populous was punished for fighting back. They could not be beaten in battle, so Grant starved them to death with a siege. Then they were trounced into the ground for their impertinence.

After they killed all the men, and the usual misuse of the women; 5000 permanent troops were stationed in the town, This allowed the carpetbaggers of the East to dismantle the ownership of the hard assets and all the land. Some amount of land was given to former slaves to cover the abusive land grabs. No one could stop this rape of Vicksburg. It was planned by experts whose predecessors had perfected the practice since Babylonian times.

Defeat remains on the faces of the people and the town has very few updates since the slaughter. It is a dismal and disheartening place to be. We moved on after our tour so as not to be overcome by the sense of abandonment that still persists.

Another town down river never suffered like this. It is the town of Natchez. Its residents had come from New York and the East. They were savvy to the oncoming marauders and their after clients. They knew how to plead for the survival of their homes and town. Consequently they were not burned out and had a prosperous war by comparison.

The whole idea of war is wasteful. But I guess each person must decide for themselves whether to stand up for their honor, or curb their own preferences and eke out some form of survival. No one can answer this question for you. And I am not sure which way is correct, because so much hidden collusion exists in our world.

We can only hope that we will not be pressed with answering this question. But hope is not a very good plan.

Democracy as a distraction

This piece contains the ideas of Jeff Thomas. I am using it so my friends will not miss it and hopefully profit from this look behind the scenes.

In days of monarchy, the people could see a definite distinction between themselves and the rulers. For one thing the king was rich and usually portly due to being well fed .The populace was otherwise.

A new policy of democracy was instituted to take the attention away from the rulers. Opposing groups were introduced and everything therefore could be blamed on the elected hopeful. The king was still ruling from behind the scenes but remained hidden. Today the ruling group is the deep state. They remain hidden.

Ideal election results are 51-49% which sounds very familiar to today’s results. Both groups remain hopeful and look forward to the next election. No one is overly distraught,

It is best to bounce back and forth between parties and winners, most of whom are totally unaware of their pawnships.

In all cases, the rulers still create problems for everyone, and cash in on the results. The government then steps in as a solution. Another opportunity is presented to cash in for the rulers.

In all cases the electorate takes the blame and is entitled to the tab. Although restless and unsettled the problem never boils over. The unawares are hopeful that the next election will bring their salvation.

Connelly squirts a sample truth :Bush confirms it

aA commentator and predictor that I like to listen to, had an opportunity to speak with former Governor John Connally in 1993. Connally who while in the Kennedy Assassination motorcade was hit by one of the bullets intended for JFK.

Many years after the killing of Kennedy, Connally told my adviser Gerald Celente a secret piece of information that woke up and startled Celente. He told Celente that if the American people realized what was going on in their government, there would be a revolution. That may not be earth shaking to some, but is very revealing from a person so close to the assassination event that he was wounded with a bullet that damaged him for life.

Liken this to a George Bush Sr. comment that said if they knew what we were doing they would hang us in the streets.

The audacity of his comment should have provided a well deserved hanging or a more appropriate crucifixion for that self effacing pompous fellow.

Politicians

It is hard to define most , if not all politicians as anything other than career criminals. Analyzing their most prominent tools of coercion and taxation, how can they be viewed in any other manner than masters of fear.

They have developed from the marauding thieves of early agricultural times into persistent mooches and purveyors of well disguised thuggery aimed only at their enrichment. But well placed propaganda covers their deception.

It is a shame that those who are upheld in the media as sacred protectors of liberty, are actually the real perpetrators of historical decline and debasement.

The collapsing institutions could not be occurring without the willingness of our elected elite.

Bookstore on the Square

You are immediately traveling back in time as you enter the main square bookstore in Oxford , Mississippi. It has a welcoming homey flavor that the downtown book shops of Manhattan can only hope to emulate.

You are greeted by groomed clerks asking if they can direct you. But ask a question and you receive a well researched answer. Pleasant conversation is heard at all times. An air of civilization relaxes you. A friendly Y’all, is much better received than a current ” you guys”.

Information about the town, and sites to visit are already printed out for handout purposes. Faulkner’s home is a popular visit. The atmosphere of a tourist info center is a bonus of this drift into the more pleasant past.

Well planned displays of reading material by category and appeal are placed throughout the store and coffee shop on the second floor. You want to sit down in well cushioned chairs , not just vacated by a local hobo.

The most important point is the contrast between our current methods of learning and the older book reading practices of old. Our current internet learning and computer practices are useful and fun. But when the power goes off or some unforseen catastrophy befalls us,; lets hope we all have an ample supply of reading material to helps us retain our sanity and civility.

Little forays into the past are revealing to how far we have come, but our loss of cursive writing and inability of present day students to pronounce common words and phrases should alert us to the idea that everything in the past is not passe and worthless.

Our religion should be liberty

That is an unusual way to put it, but it would surely solve a lot of problems for us.

Robert Frost on his death bed said, “the founders didn’t believe in the future, they believed the future in”. In other words the future we want must be believed in.

Justice William O. Douglas said”the right to be let alone is indeed the beginning of all freedom”. I didn’t care for the man , but I like his idea.

Another recent thought I heard was why don’t we have any orators anymore. Because to be an orator you must believe in your topic. That quality is very sparse in our society.

These scattered thoughts have uplifted me today, and I hope will do so for others. It is a start to getting on our feet once again in protecting our own liberty.

Byzantine Jews

Byzantine history is touched very lightly in American schools. Therefore we don’t know much about it.

In Byzantium Jews were accorded full citizenship. But they were prevented from entering politics. They were not allowed in the field of finance. They could not be teachers in the educational system.

We are not readily aware of these prohibitions, because Byzantine history is overlooked in the U.S.

Maybe some self education is warranted here.

COPS

Community oriented police systems is a pervasive and spreading idea that the police will be in charge of our cities and all decisions therein.

This organization is a perfect reflection of the East German Stasi, a ruthless and evil organization meant to centralize power and establish Communist rule under the guise of public safety.

It is already working in many American cities. They have a purpose that aims at destroying what is left of the American family.

We need only look around to see how much they have already accomplished.

I offer this warning so that friends and family can begin to reeducate themselves.
