Program Focus:
This program will explore how belief, history, myth and politics create the great drama of Jerusalem.
Black Sun over Jerusalem
"Jersusalem was the center of the world; at the center of Jerusalem was the temple; at the center of the temple was the Ark of the Covenant; at the center of the Ark of the Covenant, seated invisibly on a throne within it, was God." Edward Fox, from Sacred Geography: A Tale of Murder and Archeology in the Holy Land
"Since it is not our aim to desecrate the sanctity of the place, as the murderers who took control of the spot and took the clerics hostage are doing, we expect the international community to demand that they lay down their arms and leave the holy place...Until then, the (Israeli army) will remain in position." Ariel Sharon
"Have you noticed the similarities between the siege of the Church of the Nativity and what happened in Waco? The same scenario is being played out." Carol A. Valentine, from: "Waco Paradigm And The Church Of The Nativity"
"Note where it says: “on Thursday, Samir Ibrahim Salman, 45, a quiet Palestinian Christian and the bell-ringer, had been hit by a single bullet in the chest and died.” It omits to mention the obvious: namely that such deadly accuracy was probably not the result of a stray bullet but deliberate, maybe even the work of a sniper. Nor does it tell us where Salman was when he was shot. Was he in the Church of the Nativity complex itself or elsewhere in Bethlehem? Was he in fact shot whilst ringing the bells in the Church of Nativity? With The Times we can only assume the worst, particularly after its Middle East correspondent Sam Kiley resigned recently in protest at the way his reports were being edited. Of course there are no outright lies in this report but there are subtle omissions of detail that help obscure the real truth beneath a veneer of balanced reporting." Rixon Stewart, from: "Can You See Through The 'Spin'? Test Yourself"
"The light of Thule comes not from the East but from the North. Its tradition is "Uranian," being derived from Uranos, lord of the cosmic world order and of the primordial Paradise of the Aryan Race, situated at the North Pole. It was Urano's usurping son Saturn who brought upon this originally happy and unified humanity the dubious gift of the egoic state. The temptations consequent upon this change in the human constitution lead to the loss of primeval unity and, eventually, the destruction of Saturn's realm, Atlantis. Thereupon the warm climate of the secret island of the Hyperboreans was suddenly replaced by bitter winter. The primordial races of the Arctic and of the Nordic Atlantis borth lost their homes, and were forced to migrate southwards." Joscelyn Godwin, on Wilhelm Landig's Godlets against Thule, from Arktos: The Polar Myth
"Also tuck into the back of your mind that Iran has ALWAYS had a special relationship with Germany AND Austria. All three countries believe the ARYAN race originated in Iran. This is also part of the Legend of the Holy Grail, Prestor John and the Knights Templars." RUMOR MILL NEWS, from "U.S. ANTI-ISRAEL POLICY: "THE LEVEL BATTLEFIELD"
"In a widely publicized letter to Israel's ambassador to Germany, Norbert
Bluem, a former labor minister under
Chancellor Helmut Kohl, described the Israeli offensive as a
"war of annihilation" - the very term employed by Adolf Hitler to describe
the 1941 invasion of the Soviet Union. And Juergen Moellemann, deputy
chairman of the liberal Free Democrats, a likely coalition partner in the
next German government, said of Palestinian violence, "I would resist too,
and use force to do so," adding that would apply "not just in my country
but in the aggressor's country as well." Such deliberately provocative
language was once taboo outside far-right and far-left circles here. And
some observers view the political mainstreaming of anti-Israeli sentiment
as more than an immediate response to the crisis, but a deeper expression
of Germany's desire not to be shackled by history as the unified republic
assumes a greater role on the world stage." Peter
Finn, from "In Germany, harsh words for Israel"
“As the energetic center of the galaxy or even the universe, this dark central sun represents the mass of potential energy prior to the Big Bang of modern cosmology." Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke, from: Black Sun: Aryan Cults, Esoteric Nazism and the Politics of Identity
“While the Jewish Cabala described its “black light,” Eastern initiates of Aryan tradition regarded it as a source of “creative light” and the “center of Universal life – Electricity." Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke, from: Black Sun: Aryan Cults, Esoteric Nazism and the Politics of Identity
“Blavatsky thus emphasized a distinction between the Semitic and Aryan cosmogony; the former materializes and humanizes the mysteries of nature; the latter spiritualizes matter. Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke, from: Black Sun: Aryan Cults, Esoteric Nazism and the Politics of Identity
"Actually, the historians in the SS research department were inclined
to embrace the theory that the Nordic
Aryans originated in Atlantis, whence they had fled to northern Europe
after the inundation of their homeland. Hitler’s attachment was not
to the German territory but to the German race, which was free to wander
and colonize other lands." Koenraad
Elst, from: Update on the Aryan Invasion Debate
"The geopolitical idea so often expressed by Pope John Paul and Mikhail Gorbachev that the world, or at least a good part of it, comprises 'one family' is not farfetched. There is a broad concensus among anthropologists, linguists, agospecialists, and cultural experts that some relatively short time after the last glaciers receded from the Eurasian landmass--about twelve thousand years ago--there flourished the remote ancestors of almost all the peoples now occupying "Europe from the Atlantic to the Urals," and North America, as well." Sometime before 7000 BC, a vast revolution changed the Caucasians' way of life and ushered them on to their destiny...earliest farming communities known to us existed in that area...Human procreation became a source and a cause of blessings...More hands were the key to tilling more soil....The sequel is easy to understand. More soil-- more land--meant outward expansion...("Blood and Soil?" "Lebensraum?" --Editor)...Constantly on the go, the Caucasian people superimposed themselves and their language where they went..." Malachi Martin, The Keys to This Blood
"The last anti-Islamic crusade was launched by Mikhail Gorbachev under his "liberalizing" program of perestroika, in which Islam was perceived as the enemy of modernization and a rallying point for anti-Russian feelings amonst Central Asia's ethnic groups." Ahmed Rashid, from Jihad: The Rise of Militant Islam in Central Asia
"Nationalist theorists wrote of three stages, too. Their nations were the heirs of an earlier glory. Of course powerful nations already claimed to be the heirs of Rome. In 1923 Moeller van den Bruck coined the phrase, "the Third Reich". The Holy Roman Empire was the first, Bismarck's Germany the second and the Nazis referred to their Germany after the takeover in 1933 in van den Bruck's phrase as "the Third Reich" or in millenarian terminology, "the Thousand Year Reich". Milton J. Fisher, from "Myths of Power and Millennialism"
" In an updated version of his thoroughly researched book on secret societies, Helsing delineates some surprising relationships. In a plan first suggested by former SS Officer and Himmler “intimus”, Prince Berhard of the Netherlands to the ageing Nazi prominenti in Chile’s Colonia Dignidad some years ago, a powerful lobby with access to major media needed to be formed to complete Hitler’s unfinished “final solution.” Focus of the provocative strategy to be carried out through selected print and television media, would be the Palestinian youth in the refugee camps who were to be whipped into an anti-Zionist frenzy. Among those present at the meeting in Chile were Arafat associates, Hamas and Hezbollah leadership cadre, representatives of wealthy Egyptian and Saudi Financiers and anti-Semitic experts from a number of countries including Austria. The most surprising attendee, representing virulent, oriental anti-semitic groups such as Sokka Gakkai and Aum Shinrikyu was a very senior Japanese diplomat, then ambassador to Ecuador. The plan was not implemented until one year ago when the group secured funding through the intervention of an Austrian pro Saddam group known as The International Progress Organization. Its leader, a university Professor at Innsbruck had himself nominated while visiting Chile on February 3, 2001 by Kofi Annan on the basis of U.N. Security Council Resolution 1192 (1998) with the approval of the Director General of UNESCO." Anubis, from: "Saddam Funds Anti Israel Lobby"
"Recently a full-page advertisement in the 10 September 2000 New York Times, signed by over 150 Jewish scholars and leaders, stated: Christians can respect the claim of the Jewish people upon the land of Israel. The most important event for Jews since the Holocaust has been the reestablishment of a Jewish state in the Promised Land. As members of a biblically-based religion, Christians appreciate that Israel was promised - and given - to Jews as the physical center of the covenant between them and God. Many Christians support the State of Israel for reasons far more profound than mere politics. As Jews, we applaud this support."Michael Prior, from: "Confronting the Bible's Ethnic Cleansing In Palestine"
"Here we see clothed in the garment of piety the Zionist enterprise, which was determined to create a state for Jews at the expense of the indigenous Arab people - a product of the nationalistic and imperialistic spirit of 19th-century Europe. Whatever pangs of conscience one might have about the expulsion of a million Palestinian Arabs, and the destruction of their villages to ensure they would not return, the Bible can salve it."Michael Prior, from: "Confronting the Bible's Ethnic Cleansing In Palestine"
"Zionism, a program originally despised by both wings of Judaism, Orthodox and Reform, as being anti-religious (by the Orthodox) and contrary to the universal mission of Judaism (by Reform Jewry), is now at the core of the Jewish credo. And credulous Christians allow themselves to be sucked into the vortex. Only when Zionism is being evaluated are normal rules of morality suspended; only here is ethnic-cleansing applauded by the religious spirit." Michael Prior, from: "Confronting the Bible's Ethnic Cleansing In Palestine"
"The hidden United States Doctrine known as “Level Battlefield” belies something far more sinister that merely withholding intelligence from Israel and supplying Israel’s enemies with weapons. The origins of this policy are rooted in a 1947 agreement to make Jerusalem the capital of a One World Government. Yasser Arafat alluded to this agreement during the Millennium summit that was held in NYC last week. If the Level Battlefield was based on the 1947 United Nations agreement, then it means that to achieve a One World Government, armageddon will occur and Israel will be destroyed." RUMOR MILL NEWS, from "U.S. ANTI-ISRAEL POLICY: "THE LEVEL BATTLEFIELD"
"The Children Of Israel are about to become the lepers of the world. And it has all been planned from the beginning. UN Secretary General Kofi Annan announced just this before he added that he would be meeting Colin Powell in Spain. The CFR, UN and Jesuit Vatican will meet in Madrid to add the final touches to the end game for Israel. They have been playing NWO good cop/bad cop with Israel. Bush and the US, of course, were the good cops, the UN and EU, the bad, but now Israel is going to discover they were all the same, all along: same aim, same anti-Semitic agenda, same new order, they just played different roles for awhile." Barry Chamish, from: "And Now, End Play"
"By no coincidence, the Black Dragons, the oriental Secret Society which survived World War II intact, morphed into the chinese drug running empire which finances Sun Myung Moon's "religion." When Moon's naked ideas were laughed out of America, they returned disguised as hate soaked brands of fundamentalism and soapboxes for various Iran Contra Players to give them veils of respectablity. My thesis is that the Black Dragon/Thule/Skull and Bones is at some level all one entity. It is this entity running Israel, and it finds Jews "in the way." The campaign of these forces to "Blame Jews" is going strong. Evidence of Israeli spying comes out, but the influence of Moon's diabolical payoffs remain hidden. The Webfairy from: "The Reason for the Focus on Israel"
"Yesterday the Turin paper La Stampa, another ultra-respectable establishment organ, ran a front-page cartoon showing a tank emblazoned with the Star of David pointing its gun straight at the baby Jesus, who tells the attackers: "Surely they don't want to kill me again?" While anti-Semitic imagery is still rare enough in the mainstream Italian press to make it worth remarking on, the conventional wisdom is overwhelmingly and aggressively anti-Israeli. Why else would the popular TV host Bruno Vespa (a slightly more cerebral version of Larry King) dare ask the Israeli ambassador, a guest on his show: "Was this the way to repay the Holy Father's overture, sending tanks into the birthplace of Jesus?" Francis X. Rocca , from "Between Rome and Jerusalem"
" In his weekly column for the London based Saudi daily Al-Sharq Al-Awsat,
Arafat's aide Bassam Abu Sharif
charged Jews of 'nailing Jesus to the cross.' Accusing Israel of shooting
at the statue of the Virgin Mary in
Bethlehem, Abu Sharif wrote: "This, of course, was a failed attempt
to murder peace, love, and tolerance, just as their forefathers tried to
murder the prophetic message when they hammered their nails and iron stakes
through the body of Jesus into the wooden cross…" from Al-Sharq Al-Awsat
(London), March 20, 2002. " Nailing

"The nationalist not only does not disapprove of atrocities committed by his own side, but he has a remarkable capacity for not even hearing about them." - George Orwell

Sacrifice
"The business of all temples everywhere in the world, dedicated to whatever
deity, was the labor of
abbatoirs and shambles, sacred slaughter houses. Christians
would replace the sprinkling of animal blood there with the drinking of
human blood in a mystery, from a common cup, by common folk, in a
commonwealth of God, at every common table in the Empire. Common-ism."
Grant
M Gallup, from "Homily Grits"
"The most familiar form of the atonement doctrine, for instance, supposes
that a wrathful God demanded that a
victim pay in blood for human sin - like the animals that died in the
atonement sacrifices at the Jewish Temple -
and that God chose to take human form and pay for the sin "Himself."
Gil
Bailie, from Violence Unveiled
"Specifically characteristic of agriculturalists, cosmic religiosity continued the most elementary dialectic of the sacred, especially the belief that the divine is incarnated, or manifest itself, in cosmic objects and rhythms. Now such a belief was denounced by the adherents of Yahweh as the worst possible idolatry, and this ever since the the Israelites' entrance into Palestine. But never was cosmic religiosity so savagely attacked. The prophets finally succeeded in emptying nature of any divine presence. Whole sectors of the natural world--the "high places," stones, springs, trees, certain crops, certain flowers--will be denounced as unclean because they were polluted by the cult of the Canaanite divinities of fertility. The preeminently clean and holy region is the desert alone, for it is there that Israel remained faithful to its God. The sacred dimension of vegetation and, in general, of the exuberant epiphanies of nature will be rediscovered only late, in medieval Judaism." Mircea Eliade, from A History of Religious Ideas
"When [Emporer] Commodus called the [Roman] senators together to offer sacrifice to himself as if he were Hercules the son of Jupiter, the General Assembly was held in the 'Temple of the Earth'. Standing before this temple was the Petra Scelerata, the accursed stone. Each year on April 15th, the feast of Fordicidia was held in this temple, consecrated to Tellus, the Mother-Earth goddess. It involved sacrificing a pregnant cow to Tellus. During this important ceremony, the unborn calf was burned whole. This whole burnt offering was called the Holocaust. Throughout pagan history, the major burnings of Jews and Christians have occurred on or near this date. Roman pagan Fordicidia is the same feast as the Feast of Ishtar, consecrated to the Mother-Earth goddess Ishtar of Babylon that has since been christianized and celebrated as Easter by the apostate Christian church. The four great Roman feasts are a counterfeit of Jewish Passover and the Seven Days of Unleavened Bread. The Devil is very precise! The Fordicidia, held on April 15th, is the satanic substitute for Jewish Passover. (Jesus Christ is the Passover Lamb of God). Immediately following the Fordicidia and celebrated in conjunction with this first [anti-]sacred feast comes the Cerialia. This feast is consecrated to the cereal goddess Ceres, held on April 19th every year. Immediately following the Cerialia comes the Parilia, held on April 21st, consecrated to the goddess Pales, who is the goddess of shepherds and their flocks. Lastly, comes the greatest feast of Rome, the Vinalia, consecrated to the supreme god, Jupiter, the god of light (Lucifer) -- the sun, the protector of vines and of the Roman people. Lucifer's feast has a special double articulation on the Roman calendar, April 23rd and August 19th." John D. Christian, from: Gladiator
“The last ashes of the last red heifer ran out sometime after the Romans razed the Temple in Jerusalem in the year 70. Every Jew became impure by reason of presumed contact with death which, practically speaking, didn’t matter much because there was no sanctuary to enter and sacrifice has ceased being the center of Judiasm.” Gershom Gorenberg, from The End of Days
"In modern times, rabbinical law forbids Jews from setting foot on the
Temple Mount, thus violating the site where the Holy of Holies dwelled,
until and unless they are ritually purified. Without a perfect red heifer
to
sacrifice, the Third Temple cannot be built, and Moshiach — the Messiah
—will not come." Rod
Dreher, from: "Red-Heifer Days
"It can now be revealed that less than one month ago, a red heifer was born in Israel. After the heifer's owner contacted the Temple Institute, on Friday, April 5th, 2001, Rabbi Menachem Makover and Rabbi Chaim Richman traveled to the farm where the heifer is located, to inspect and validate her status. The rabbis found her to be kosher and were satisfied that this heifer could indeed be a candidate to be used in the process of purification described in the book of Numbers, chapter 19. This is an important development towards the rebuilding of the Holy Temple." NEWS FLASH: Red Heifer Born in Israel! Updated April 8th, 2002
"These kinds of circumstances are exactly what people are waiting for," says Richard Landes, a Boston University history professor and director of its Center for Millenial Studies. "We could be starting a war. If this is a real red heifer, and strict Orthodox rabbis have declared her worthy of sacrifice, then a lot of Jews in Israel will take that as a sign that a new phase of history is about to begin. The Muslims are ready for jihad anyway, so if you have Jews up there doing sacrifices, talk about a red flag in front of a charging bull." Rod Dreher, from: "Red-Heifer Days
"It is tempting to pause and note that by the elimination of the scapegoat, the cycle of mimetic violence ceases and the culture is able to establish its violence-preventing distinctions and forms...much religious ritual reenacts symbolically both the original mad mimetic violence of a culture and the cultural foundation achieved by the sacrifice of a scapegoat. Ritual thus serves the important cultural purpose of reinforcing and transmitting the lessons learned in a scapegoat-broken cycle of violence. The scapegoat, perceived as simultaneously the cause and the solution to violence, becomes the sacred: the single locus of both divine terror and divine blessing, the unity of the two manifestations of the holy..." J. Bottum, from "Girard Among the Girardians"
"The story of the scapegoat ought to be impenetrable. Myth serves primarily to hide the arbitrariness of the victim and the fact that the innocent victim is a victim at all. If we know the victim to be arbitrary, we cannot succeed in making him sacred; if we know the victim to be innocent, the cycle of violence and the breakdown of culture cannot be solved-as they were not solved in Athens, for instance, by the innocent Socrates' death.J. Bottum, from "Girard Among the Girardians"
"Only a portion of the Jewish people accepted the new doctrine [Christianity]. Those who refused to are still called Jews today…. They were obliged to hear the new religious community…reproach them with having murdered God. In full, this reproach would run as follows: “They will not accept it as true that they murdered God, whereas we admit it and have been cleansed of that guilt.”… A special enquiry would be called for to discover why it has been impossible for the Jews to join in this forward step…. Sigmund Freud, from: Moses and Monotheism
"While the Church is assigned the labor of supernatural redemption of
the world, Israel we believe, is assigned on the plane and within the limits
of secular history, a task of earthly activization of the mass of the world.
Israel, which is not of the world. Israel, which is not of the heart of
the world’s structure, stimulating it, exasperating it,
moving it. Like an alien body, like an activating ferment injected
into the mass, it gives the world no peace, it bars slumber, it teaches
the world to be discontented and restless as long as the world has not
God, it
stimulates the movement of history." Jacques
Maritain, from A Christian Looks at the Jewish Question
"We have in cultural anthropology... one set of religious texts
that seems to take the side of the victim. Often in the Old Testament and
overwhelmingly in the New, the mythology of scapegoat sacrifice is penetrated
and thereby rendered ineffectual... Judaism and Christianity are fundamentally
anti-sacred in their partisanship for the victim, and this is only possible
(logically, scientifically, anthropologically) if Judaism and Christianity
actually do have a divine revelation-if the Bible, to put it bluntly, is
true."J.
Bottum, from "Girard Among the Girardians"
“…the Orthodox church is dark as a starry night, lit mainly by scattered flickering candles. In this space one is everywhere surrounded by the powerful icons, radiating as though by their own light. One’s eyes move over walls covered with stars against a night-blue background, stopping suddenly at the great dome above, upon which a gigantic head of Christ looks back down at you. This is a cosmos whose central force is an act of sacrifice for the sake of man, for oneself. And this sacrificial cosmos demands form man a response.” Jacob Needleman, from Consciousness & Tradition
"The widespread adulation of Al Qaeda and the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, of Osama bin Laden and Yasir Arafat, of Mohammed Atta and the young man on his way to paradise because last week he perpetrated mass murder in Tel Aviv, is evidence of the deep roots that this practice has in the culture of the Arab and Muslim world. And let us name the phenomenon honestly. When pampered Saudi princes praise the "martyrs of Palestine," and when Arafat himself says (more than a bit insincerely) that he wishes to die a shahid, they are (as Shimon Peres has pointed out) countenancing the idea of human sacrifice as an active agent of modern politics." Martin Peretz , from "Murdering Jews, Then and Now"
" Within the past year, Sheikh Muhammad Sayyed Tantawi, the top Egyptian
cleric of Al-Azhar University, has
shifted his position regarding the targeting of civilians in
suicide bombings. While he previously stated that
Palestinians should refrain from targeting civilians,(1) he recently
declared that martyrdom (suicide) operations and the killing of civilians
are permitted acts and that more such attacks should be carried out. Tantawi's
positions were posted on www.lailatalqadr.com, a website associated with
Al-Azhar. The following
are excerpts from the report: "The great Imam of Al-Azhar Sheikh Muhammad
Sayyed Tantawi, demanded that the Palestinian people, of all factions,
intensify the martyrdom operations [i.e. suicide attacks] against the Zionist
enemy, and described the martyrdom operations as the highest form
of Jihad operations. He says that the young people executing them
have sold Allah the most precious thing of all." Leading

Jerusalem and the Crusades
"Jerusalem has been occupied more times than any other city in the world. The Macedonians, Babylonians and Romans during their occupation destroyed the Jewish temples in the Holy city. Hadrian ordered that no Jew should be permitted to step into Jerusalem, the Crusaders history records meted out harsh treatment to the Jews." Siddiq Ghouse, from "Muslims and Jerusalem"
“As Al-Haram al-Sharif, the Noble Sanctuary, it is the third-holiest site in Islam. Near its center stands the Dome of the Rock – a gilded half-sphere rising from an octagonal base. The protuberance of bedrock inside the shrine traditionally marks the spot where Muhammd ascended to heaven on his nighttime journey from Mecca nearly fourteen hundred years ago. It probably also marks…the location of the Holy of Holies, the sacred core of the Jewish temple.” Gershom Gorenberg, from The End of Days
"Jerusalem came under Islamic rule during the reign of Caliph Umar in
638 C.E..The Patriarch of the city of Jerusalem, Sophronius himself offered
the keys of the city of Jerusalem to Caliph Umar after its conquest. Upon
entering the blessed city, the benevolent Caliph asked about the site of
the Blessed Rock where the Prophet went on Mihraj, that was then a desolate
site, according to historian was a dung hill. Umar when locating the site
fell upon his knees and started cleaning the place with his own hands.
The Masjid al Aqsa was established in that place. Later during the Umayyad
period,the beautiful mosque and next to it the Dome of the Rock were built
in 691. Jerusalem remained under Muslim rule until the Crusaders seized
it. Those were bloody wars, and the
Crusaders held the city from 1099 till the famous Muslim General Saladin
the Great recaptured it from the Crusaders." Siddiq
Ghouse, from "Muslims and Jerusalem"
Temple Mount: The Secret Battle of Apocalypse
"A secret Medieval battle over the Temple Mount is being conducted in Israel today and unless it can be stopped, this skirmish has the potential of dragging the whole planet into war." Barry Chamish, from: Why the PLO is Tunneling Under Temple Mount
"The Apocalypse is a space of conceptualisations that emerge from information,
communication, bio-genetic and nuclear technologies and, as such, it is
a principle factor inherent in the very logic of modernisation. Phenomena
such as ecological disasters, epidemics, urban disorders and guerrilla
warfare must be read alongside these technological transformations. Of
central importance in these conceptualisations is the way in which 'the
Apocalypse' signifies a mutual collapse of time and space into a void indicating
'the end' (for example
dystopia). This returns to cultural practices of everyday life in a
multitude of forms: moral panics, crowd-anxieties, political apathy, hyper-hedonistic
consumption, public angst, lethargic cocooning, cybernetic
insomnia and domesticated terror. Suggested topics will include disorganized
spaces: violence, crime, riots, urban terrorism, ecological disasters as
well as more `everyday' (dis)orders such as fires, accidents, power-cuts
and epidemics." from Call

"There was Egyptian writer Sa'id Ayyub's Al-Masih al-Dajjal - that is, The Antichrist - which expands radically on the old Islamic idea that at history's finale a Jewish Antichrist will rule until Jesus, as Muslim prophet, returns to defeat him." Gershom Gorenberg, from: The End of Days
"Essentially the tribes of Judah, followers of Moses, has been taken over by GOG MAGOG who are servants of the Anti-Christ ...in Biblical language. The same fate happened to the followers of Jesus, the Christians, via the Roman Empire and the Jesuits ... And the same has been for the followers of Muhammad, the Muslims via the Wahabi's ... And what do we have today ...total disarray among the children of Adam, exactly as Satan predicted he would do... But Abraham said that he would teach thru his sons - the Jews and the Arabs - how Satan can be defeated ... unfortunately they are about to annihilate themselves OR ARE THEY? What's next I wonder?" Aladdin, from: "VOICE OF THE FEW AGAINST GOG MAGOG"
"If there's any place in the world where belief in the End is a powerful
force in real-life events, it's the Holy Land. The territory shared and
contested by Jews and Palistinians is the stage of myth in Christianity,
Judaism, and even Islam. When a great drama is played out here, the
temptation is to match events with the Script of the Last Days can be irresistible.
For a century just such a drama has been acted out, compelling the world's
attention - and firing expectations in all three religions among those
who hope for the End."
Gershom Gorenberg, from The End of Days: Fundamentalism and the
Struggle for the Temple Mount
“The concept of an End of Days, in which God’s kingdom will be established on earth, exists in Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, though it’s often suppressed in all three faiths. If there’s one thing that has made it difficult to repress that subversive idea today, it is the existence of the state of Israel. The creation of Israel in 1948 and its conquest of Jerusalem in 1967 aren’t ordinary history: For those inclined to hear them, they’re divine proclamations that the hour is near.” Gershom Gorenberg, from The End of Days: Fundamentalism and the Struggle for the Temple Mount
“In Israel, belief in final redemption has driven the most dedicated
opponents of peace agreements. Among Muslims, expectation of the final
Hour helps feed exaggerated fears about Israel’s actions in Jerusalem.
Belief in the approaching End has influenced crucial events in the Arab-Israeli
conflict. Time and again, it has been the rationale behind apparently irrational
bloodshed, and undermined efforts at peacemaking.”
Gershom Gorenberg, from The End of Days
"The Jewish historian, Solomon Lurie, author of the fundamental
study of anti-Semitism in antiquity, spoke of a ‘non-territorial Jewish
nation-state’. Now this powerful non-territorial state stretching from
New York to Moscow
accepted Nazi doctrine as its policy and genocide as its praxis. A
good example is provided by the Jewish American law professor from Harvard,
Alan Dershowitz, who writes in Sir Conrad Black’s owned Jerusalem Post[ii]:
“the first act of [Palestinian] terrorism should result in the destruction
of a small village which has been used as a base for terrorist operations.
The residents would be given 24 hours to leave, and then troops will come
in and bulldoze all of the buildings”. It was the standard practice of
Nazi troops in occupied Europe. Provided that Dershowitz and others of
that ilk taught American students for a generation, while Black and his
comrades-in-arms busily promoted this agenda, it is not strange that the
US gives its full support to the Judeo-Nazi war machine. Rumours of the
impending US attack on Iraq and Saudi Arabia were designed to freeze the
neighbouring Arab nations in the state of horrified expectation." Israel
Shamir, from: " Not Another Peace Plan"
The Knights Templars
"The Knights Templar — properly called The Poor Knights of Christ and
the Temple of Solomon — were founded during the early Crusades in the 12th
century, when they protected pilgrims to the Holy Land, together with the
Hospitallers (or Knights of St John). The Templars were so called because
they were given part of the former Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem as their
headquarters." Richard
Owen, from: "Vatican file shows pope
pardoned
massacred Knights"
"The Templars...disdained materialism until their arrival in Jerusalem in the early twelfth century on a papal crusade. Eleven knights dug under the ruins of Solomon's Temple for nine years and hit paydirt. Under the Temple Mount the Templars discovered a network of tunnels where the Jewish priests hid their treasures from the marauding Romans in 70 AD. The knights not only uncovered some of the gold and silver described in the Copper Scroll of the Dead Sea Scrolls but the records of the first Jerusalem church of Christianity...." Barry Chamish, from: Why the PLO is Tunneling Under Temple Mount
"The first Bishop of the Jerusalem Church was Jesus' brother James.
He was aided by Jesus' other siblings, five brothers and two sisters.
After the Romans destroyed Jerusalem and dispersed the Jews, James and
his family fled to France, a fact confirmed by the bestselling book
Holy Blood, Holy Grail. These descendants of the holy Davidic line had
the wherewithal to gain wealth throughout Europe and buy vast properties.
Over time they constituted a good chunk of European royalty. While professing
whatever religion the state demanded, first
worshiping the pantheon of Roman Gods and later papal Christianity,
they secretly practised the Christianity of the early Jerusalem church.
These descendants of the priestly line, now called themselves Rex Deus,
and passed on their traditions throughout the royal courts of Europe where
they ruled. The original Celt church was founded by the Rex Deus, and St.
Patrick of Ireland was a Jew. Other Rex Deus included the Habsburgs, the
Stuarts of Scotland and today's King Juan Carlos of Spain, who includes
among his titles, Protector Of The Holy Places Of Jerusalem." Barry
Chamish, from: Why the PLO is Tunneling Under Temple Mount
"The Templars returned from their Crusade with vast wealth uncovered
under the Temple Mount and initiated a monumental building program in Europe,
which ultimately resulted in the construction of over 250 castles
and Gothic churches. They now challenged the papacy for political control
of Europe, yet the usually jealous Vatican allowed their power to grow
unabated. Knight and Lomas insist this is because the Templars had a huge
advantage over Rome. According to their version of events, the Knights
uncovered the original records of the Jerusalem Church and they proved
that the Vatican was not practising Christianity as its founders intended.
For example, a pope with exclusive rights of divine interpretation was
not part of G-d's plan. If the scrolls were made public, they would jeopardize
Rome's legitimacy." Barry

"The Templar Grand Master, Jacques de Molay, was burnt at the stake
on the orders of Philip IV of France (known as Philip the Fair), who coveted
the Templar order’s land and treasure and began a campaign of dawn arrests
and torture in 1307. At least 2,000 Knights were killed in an attempt to
obliterate the order altogether. It was revived in the 18th century as
part of the masonic movement, which is said to have inherited some of the
Templars’ secret rituals." Richard
Owen, from: "Vatican file shows pope

massacred Knights"
"In the fourteenth century, the French king known as Philip the Fair coordinated a purge of the Templars in coordination with the Holy See. Their properties were seized and their leader, in fact the last Templar leader, Jacques de Molay was brutally tortured by crucifixion until he confessed to the alleged sins of his Order. He survived the first round of torture and a linen cloth was placed over him to absorb his blood and keep him warm. This cloth became known as the Shroud of Turin..."

"The destruction of the Knights Templar is one of the most shameful acts in medieval history. These glorious, extraordinary knights who had achieved and sacrificed so much for Christendom, found themselves offered up - like Aztec human sacrifices - to the greed of Philip IV." H. W. Crocker, from Triumph: The Power and the Glory of the Catholic Church
"Vatican documents have come to light showing that the wholesale massacre
of the Knights Templar in the Middle Ages for alleged “heresy, idolatry
and sexual perversion” — an episode still shrouded in mystery — took place
even though the Pope had exonerated them in a secret trial. The revelation
will put pressure on the present Pope, who has asked the Muslim world for
forgiveness for the Crusades, to apologise for the persecution of one of
the main Crusading orders as well..."Richard

"L’Avvenire, the Catholic daily, said that the record of the Pope’s investigation was thought to have been lost when Napoleon looted the Vatican during his invasion of Italy in the 18th century, and that its rediscovery was an exceptional event." Richard Owen, from: "Vatican file shows pope pardoned massacred Knights"
"Barbara Frale, a researcher at the Vatican School of Paleontology,
said that the consensus among historians was that Clement V, who was himself
French and a former Archbishop of Bordeaux, had been pliant and weak, and
had colluded in Philip the Fair’s scheme to wipe out the Templars and seize
their fortune. But documents found in the Vatican archives, including a
long-lost parchment, proved that the Pope had in fact manoeuvred “with
skill and determination” to ensure that his own emissaries questioned de
Molay and other leading Templars in the dungeons of Chinon castle inthe
Loire in 1308, in what amounted to a papal trial...The Pope had accepted
the Knights’ explanation that the charges against them of sodomy and blasphemy
were due to a
misunderstanding of arcane rituals behind closed doors which had their
origins in the Crusaders’ bitter struggle
against the Muslims, or Saracens. These included “denying Christ and
spitting on the Cross three times”, as well as “kissing other men’s behinds”....these
were intended to simulate the kind of humiliation and torture that a Crusader
might be subjected to by the Saracens if captured. They were taught how
to abuse their own religion “with the mind only and not with the heart”.
Richard
Owen, from: "Vatican file shows pope pardoned massacred Knights"
"Noting that de Molay and the Knights had asked his pardon, the Pope wrote: “We hereby decree that they are absolved by the church and may again receive Christian sacraments.” Signor Forgione said that the Pope had failed to make this absolution public because the scandal of the Templars had aroused extreme passions and he feared a church schism. Philip IV had de Molay and other Templar leaders put to death before the Pope’s verdict could be published, and it was subsequently lost." Richard Owen, from: "Vatican file shows pope pardoned massacred Knights"
"The modern Templars, whom you refer to in your letter, are but mere magpies in peacok's plumes. The aim of the Masonic Templars is sectarianization, or rather the Christianizing of Masonry, a fraternity which is supposed to admit the Jew, Parsee, Mahometan, Buddhist, in fact every religionist within the portals who accepts the doctrine of a personal god and spirit-immortality According to the belief of a section, if not all the Israelites, belonging to the Craft in America - Templarism is Jesuitism." Charles Sotheran, from "Letter January 11, 1887" quoted in Isis Unveiled by H.P. Bavatsky
"A group of Templars led by the St. Clair clan escaped the French siege by ship and landed in Scotland, a safe port since it was ruled by the Rex Deus member, Robert the Bruce. It must be noted that at his death, Robert the Bruce's heart was transported to Jerusalem for burial. Two versions of what happened to it exist. The first says the deliverers of the heart were captured in Spain, the second insists they made it and the heart lays buried in Jerusalem to this day...the French Templars brought with them the damning scrolls from under the Jerusalem Temple Mount and built a chapel in Rosslyn, near Edinburgh to house them. The chapel, built by William Sinclair (1415- 1482), which exists today, was built according to the specifications of the Herodian Temple and an exact duplicate of the Western Wall was constructed alongside it. To hide their now-banned Templar roots, the Knights formed a new organization, Freemasonry, whose rites were precisely those set down in the scrolls recovered from beneath Jerusalem's Temple Mount." Barry Chamish, from: Why the PLO is Tunneling Under Temple Mount
"Scottish rite Masonry spread throughout Europe and according to Knight and Lomas, much to the chagrin of the Vatican. In their version of events, in 1717, the pro-Catholic Hanoverian dynasty took over the British crown and ordered vast changes in Masonic rites. The 33 Scottish degrees were reduced to just four in the new English rites and all the secrets within the Jerusalem scrolls were eliminated from lodge ceremonies. However, other writers share a different version of events, insisting the Templars and the Vatican remained partners throughout their public trials." Barry Chamish, from: Why the PLO is Tunneling Under Temple Mount
"The Scottish Rite, which belongs to an elite branch of Freemasonry
known as the Supreme Council of the 33rd Degree, was founded in 1801 at
the city of Charleston in South Carolina. Its origins are obscure, but
it is generally agreed by Masonic historians that it started in the 1740s
in the city of Bordeaux, France and brought to the American Colonies soon
after. The idea was to link the normal or ‘craft’ Freemasonry with the
elitist medieval order of the Knights Templar, a powerful political and
financial organisation that originally was formed to protect the Holy Land
--and especially Jerusalem-- from the Muslims. The Knights Templar, in
fact, got their evocative name from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, where
had once stood Solomon’s Temple, and where these Christian knights had
established their first camp during the Crusades." Robert
Bauval, from "Masonic attacks unwarranted"
"What distinguished those freed temple-builders from other Crusader guilds was that they diffused Islamic propaganda by praising Saladin's army, wearing turbans, using Arabic numerals, paying homage to Muslim folk spirits, and gradually removing Jesus from their body of principles. And they were extremely wealthy. They brought new Muslim customs into Europe, but they ignored the fact that medieval Ottoman forces represented "Antichrist" in the wars against the presence of Christianity in Palestine and Byzantium. When they were finally persecuted in Paris, on Friday the 13th in October of 1307, the Knights Templars were accused of worshipping a severed death head they called Baphomet, which had decayed into a rotting skull. The death head symbol was later displayed as the poison warning of "Jolly Roger," on the flags of all pirate fleets. In the 20th century, Baphomet became the official hat insignia (mark of beast on the forehead) of the Nazi SS." from, "The Hidden Origins of Nazism (3)"
"On March 22, 1312, Clement V dissolved the Knights Templar with his decree Vox clamantis. But the dissolution proved a mere formality to further appease Philip (the Fair). More importantly, it permitted the Templars, in other manifestations to continue enriching the papacy...A subtle provision in Vox clamantis transferred most Templar estates to the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem. In Germany and Austria, the Templars became "Rosicrucians" and "Teutonic Knights." F. Tupper Saussy, from Rulers Of Evil
The Vatican Gambit
"There is no question whatsoever that the Vatican wants Israel off the Temple Mount and that the Israeli leadership is accommodating its desire. But the PLO has plans of its own. By the summer of 2000, they began digging under the Temple Mount in earnest. Originally they claimed they were simply expanding a mosque under Solomon's Stables, beneath the Damascus Gate of Jerusalem's walled Old City. However, the huge mounds of earth and artifacts from the Second Temple that were being dumped in nearby wadis betrayed a much more extensive plan."

"According to the official version of history, CIA aid to the Mujahadeen

otherwise: Indeed, it was July 3, 1979 that President Carter signed the
first directive for secret aid to the opponents of the pro-Soviet regime

He had persuaded the US Congress to provide the Maujaheddin with American-made Stinger anti-aircraft missiles to shoot down Soviet planes and provide US advisors to train the guerrillas. ...The CIA, Britain's MI6 and the ISI also agreed on a provacative plan to launch guerrilla attacks into the Soviet Socialist Republics of Tasjikistan and Uzbekistan, the soft Muslim underbelly of the Soviet state....Casey committed CIA support to a long-standing ISI initiaitive to recuit radical Muslims from around the world to come to Pakistan and fight with the Afgan Mujaheddin...Washington wanted to demonstrate that the entire Muslim world was fighting the Soviet Union alongside the Afgans and their American benefactors.

Walters and William Wilson, Reagan's first ambassador to the Vatican.
They regarded the U.S.-Vatican
relationship as a holy alliance: the moral force of the Pope and the
teachings of their church combined with their
fierce anticommunism and their notion of American democracy. Yet the
mission would have been impossible

the benefits and the practical applications of
Washington's relationship with the Vatican. One of his earliest goals

"According to Admiral John Poindexter, the military assistant to the
National Security Adviser when martial law
was declared in Poland, Reagan was convinced that the communists had
made a huge miscalculation: after
allowing Solidarity to operate openly for 16 months before the crackdown,
the Polish government would only
alienate its countrymen by attempting to cripple the labor movement
and, most important, would bring the
powerful church into direct conflict with the Polish regime. "I didn't
think that this [the decision to impose martial
law and crush Solidarity] could stand, because of the history of Poland

"As an infidel, of course, the Kaiser had no authority to summon Muslins to a Holy War....Indeed, only the Ottoman Sultan himself, in his capacity of Caliph of all Islam, had the authority which was required to issue such an awesome order.

"It is instructive to recall that upon their suppression the Jesuits took refuge in Russia under Catherine, and in Prussia under Frederick, both sovereigns being freethinkers. Not until the French Revolution had frightened all liberal ideas out of the crowned heads of Europe, and the fall of Napoleon enabled the sceptred tyrants of England and the Continent to place their iron heels upon the necks of the people, did the Jesuits once more receive an invitation to resume their activity and their existence as an order.

"There is a faction of Jesuits, I call them dove-Jesuits, loyal to Pope John Paul II, along that line of power. These dove-Jesuits are interfering with the Anglo-American-Zionist war plans, and are the ones stopping Israel from laying the temple mount stone at one of Islam’s holiest site. Then you have the Jesuits along the Anglo-American line of power, who are just a bad bunch. The child sex scandals that are going on inside the Catholic Church is deliberate, done by forces along the Anglo-American line of power. These devils are the ones trying to mastermind a coup inside the Vatican. And they hope that such a successful coup will help them achieve their war plans. Denominations of churches will continue to undergo scandals of various forms, instigated from church warfare. Especially among Evangelicals, Protestants and Pentecostals warring with Catholics. The Evangelicals, Protestants and Pentecostals are apart of the same Anglo-American-Zionist Temple Mount mole.

of the Middle East "peace"
process. A friend of Shimon Peres, the French intellectual Marek Halter,
claimed in an interview that in May 1993, he delivered a letter from Peres
to the pope. Within, Peres promised to internationalize Jerusalem,
granting the UN political control of the Old City of Jerusalem, and
the Vatican hegemony of the holy site within. The UN would give the PLO
a capital within its new territory and East Jerusalem would become a kind
of free trade zone of world diplomacy. Halter's claim was backed by the
Italian newspaper La Stampa which added that Arafat was apprised of the
agreement and it was included in the secret clauses of the Declaration
Of Principles signed in Washington in September 1993." Barry

the ancient Temple. The video revealed a new and massive tunnel aimed directly
at the most sacred core of Solomon's and later, Herod's Temples.
The PLO is after not only the treasures buried beneath the Temple to
deplete their morally and financially bankrupt regime of terror but must

Building the Temple with Freemasons
"Freemasons consider themselves observers of an unbroken tradition of occult knowledge that begins with the builders of the First Temple, and its founder, Solomon, whom biblical legend has given the character of an archetypal complete being, supreme in both power and wisdom. The rituals of Freemasonry, in which the individual ascends a hierarchy of esoteric lore through progressive initiation, are based on metaphors of the construction and architecture of the temple...." Edward Fox, from Sacred Geometry: a Tale of Murder and Archeology in the Holy Land
"The learned men of the seventeenth century were greatly interested in Solomn's Temple. Theologians, philosophers and other scholars wrote long books about it in Latin. The mathematician and scientist Isaac Newton, was particularly impressed by the temple. Many of his 470 books and writings are on theological subjects and he wrote several about the temple. He considered that Solomon was the greatest philosopher of all time. He seems to have believed that his reading about the measurements of Solomon's temple had helped him to formulate his law of gravity and he was sure that from these measurements it was possible to foretell that Christ's Second Coming would take place in 1948..."

Masonic initiation ceremonies are now carried out inside it annually, and during the British mandate stones were quarried from the rock inside and used as the cornerstones of Masonic lodges around the world.

"Two weeks after the 1967 Six-Day War which saw Jerusalem and the Temple Mount brought under Israeli control, there occurred the greatest freemasonic meeting in history in London, celebrating 250 years since the founding of UGLE, at which the Duke of Kent was installed as the new Grand Master." from www.redmoonrising.com
"Apart from members of the American based Christian identity movement, whose members recently attempted to lay a ceremonial corner stone at the Temple; would you believe that some of Sharon’s most important allies come from within the British aristocracy and European nobility? That’s right. Foremost amongst them is the Queens first cousin, the Duke of Kent, who heads the Quatuor Coronati “research” lodge of the Grand Mother Lodge of British Freemasonry. The Lodge has an ongoing operation on Temple Mount itself, run on a day-to-day basis by the Seventh Marquis of Northampton, Spencer Douglas David Compton... Because the Duke of Kent and Lord Northampton are both adherents of British Israelism: a doctrine that holds that the cream of British aristocracy is descended from one of the lost Tribes of Israel.
According to Lord Northampton: “I think the tradition of the Kabbalah is very strong in England, because I think one of the lost tribes came to England. And I think you can spot them, quite clearly, in old English families. I am sure you can. I know they came to Ireland, then to the North of Wales, and then down into England. And then became some of the oldest families we have.” In Lord Northamptons view America was also colonised by another of the lost Tribes. “That was all predicted, that one would go to Hyperborea, the land of the north, and one would go across the sea.” He told an interviewer: . . “so I think that America and England got the Two Lost Tribes, and that is why they then, in a very intellectual Jewish way, started to run the world!” It gets even stranger because Lord Northampton is, by his own admission, a practitioner of the Golden Dawn rituals of occultist Aleister Crowley. Lord Northampton’s right hand man on the Temple Mount project is Giuliano de Bernardo, Grand Master of Italian Regular Freemasonry. In addition to which the notorious Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith director Abe Foxman is also said to be in close collaboration because, according to Di Bernardo: “There are strong relations between B’nai B’rith and Freemasonry.” Rixon, from: "THE FINAL COUNTDOWN....10...9...8...7..."
"Another key figure is architect Leen Ritmeyer, whose work has dovetailed with Quatuor Coronati activities on Temple Mount. And once again some familiar names start to reappear. Ritmeyer’s work on Temple Mount work has been financed by Lord Jacob Rothschild, son of Lord Victor Rothschild, a former head of MI5 and MI6. One other central character in all this is Dr. Lambert Dolphin, a physicist at the Stanford Research Institute in California. Like many of the participants he sees the proposed Temple Mount venture as the fulfilment of prophecy; others might view it as pure insanity. Nonetheless he remains undaunted by the fact that the Temple Mount project could precipitate even more bloodshed. In fact he almost seems to view it in terms of sacrifice, the sort of ritual that was once required to consecrate holy ground." Rixon, from: "THE FINAL COUNTDOWN....10...9...8...7..."
" By a terrible twist of fate it is also the most haloed place in Judeo-Christian
tradition and, mostly, to neo-Templar secret societies such as the Scottish
Rite. Central to the Scottish Rite rituals are the so-called
Masonic ‘Tracing Boards’, which are usually a sort of sheet placed
on the floor of the lodge on which can be seen various symbols representing
the Temple of Solomon, the most prominent being two tall pillars, called
Jachin and Boaz, leading to a five-pointed star or pentagonal altar known
as the ‘Blazing Star’. The ‘Blazing Star’ symbolises ‘Light’ and was sometimes
identified to ‘Lucifer’, which is very unfortunate, for it was not meant
in this context to be seen in the malevolent sense that this name generally
evokes today, but rather to
the classical ‘Lucce-Ferre’ (Lucifer) which means ‘Bringer of Light’
or the ‘Morning Star’ of the Romans i.e. Venus, and which in the
Bible is associated to Messianic events. Robert
Bauval, from "Masonic attacks unwarranted"
"But it can easily be seen how, to terrorist groups such as Hamas and
Al Qaeda, such and elitist and secret society in America might be perceived
as ‘Satanic’, hence the crude name of ‘Great Satan’ allocated by radical
Arabs to the United States and it leaders. But to be fair, this ‘Satanic’
link, although of course wrong, is not altogether surprising to see. In
1881, for instance, a huge scam was mounted against the Scottish Rite Freemasons
of Charleston by a French author called Leo Taxil, who ‘exposed’ the ‘Satanic’
rituals of this fraternity and named many senior politicians and clerics
as being involved. The ‘Leo Taxil Hoax’, as it is know in Masonic circles,
caused much bad press for the Masons, and brought a wave of anti-Masonic
attacks from the general public and the Church." Robert
Bauval, from "Masonic attacks unwarranted"
"Now the 32 degree rituals of the Scottish Rite (the 33rd is a title
and not a ritual) are said to be related to the 32
Paths of Wisdom of the Sephiroth or Tree of Life found in the Judeo-Christian
Kabala. The Kabala is a mystical system of learning or initiation based
on the idea that the Holy Scriptures, such as the Torah, the Talmud and
the Old Testament, are somehow encoded in the ‘language of God’ the key
of which (Kabala) was handed to Moses and passed on to the Jewish
sages and Rabbis. Apparently the secrets of the Kabala are in the mystical
understanding of the 22 letters of the Jewish alphabet. These letters,
which are seen as ‘paths’ or ‘roads’, link up the 10 ‘emanations of God’
that make up the Sephiroth, and thus together they make up the 32
Paths." Robert
Bauval, from "Masonic attacks unwarranted"
"The same idea, interestingly enough, is also found in the modern esoteric
Tarot Cards, which were invented in the 1770s by a Scottish Rite Freemason
in Paris, Court de Gebelin. But here is a curious thing: the 31th, 32nd
and 33rd degrees, which are the most crucial to the ‘rebuilding’
of the Temple of Solomon, also are found in the actual geographical latitudes
or parallels that encompass the modern State of Israel. Modern Israel is,
in fact,
contained, as it were, between those latitudes. Indeed, the 32nd degree
parallel passes just a little south of the city of Jerusalem." Robert
Bauval, from "Masonic attacks unwarranted"
"0n some certificates of the Scottish Rite 33rd degree, the actual geographical latitude given in degrees is shown alongside the name and location of the issuing lodge indicating, perhaps, some sort of mystical connection between the “Degree” rituals and the geographical latitude “degree” of the lodge. One can easily see, therefore, how radical Muslim fanatics might perceive the creation of the modern State of Israel which they believe was masterminded in secret deals between the Zionist Organisation and F.D. Roosevelt and Harry Truman in the 1940s." Robert Bauval, from "Masonic attacks unwarranted"

unexplained five-day visit to Israel in April 1998. He was arrested as
he tried to leave the country and died in police custody. When his body
was returned to Scotland, an autopsy revealed his heart was missing. The
official version of events stated that Mr Sinclair hanged himself in a
police cell and that his heart had been taken for closer examination and
had been misplaced. The Israeli health authorities then sent a heart
to his family but it was impossible to test it and, therefore, confirm
its origin At the time of his death he was described as a resident of Amsterdam
who eked out a living as a musician and from making and selling guitars.
Now, startling new evidence has been uncovered which reveals that the humble
Scottish guitar maker was a direct descendant of a high-ranking family
which helped found the Order of the Knights Templar.
"The Order is embroiled in an international battle for the control of
the holy sites in Jerusalem, the capital of
Israel. An investigation into Alisdair Sinclair's death was carried
out by Israeli author Barry Chamish. Many of
Chamish's findings are backed up by Alisdair's brother. Yesterday Barry
Chamish told The Sunday Post, "I have examined every available piece of
evidence relating to the death of Alisdair Sinclair. "In my opinion he
was murdered and his killing was linked to a greater conspiracy. "After
his death in police custody, Alisdair's body was taken to the Abu Kabir
Institute of Forensics where an autopsy was carried out.
Last week the Israeli Government launched a massive investigation into Abu Kabir after numerous allegations that body parts from corpses were illegally removed by staff there and sold on the black market for organ transplant. "But it was pointless removing Alisdair's heart for medical reasons," claims Barry Chamish. "For a start, a heart has to be kept alive via a life support system if it is to be transplanted.
"Even more damning is the fact that in Israel we do not carry out heart transplants. "Alisdair Rosslyn Sinclair was murdered and his heart removed because of his bloodline. "He may not have realised it, but he was one of the leading members of the Knights Templar hierarchy. "The Knights Templar believe they are the rightful heirs to the Christian holy sites in Jerusalem and are currently involved in a secret battle to gain control of them."Alisdair was killed because he got caught up in this clandestine war. The removal of his heart is part of the Knights Templar tradition. When Robert the Bruce died he asked that his heart be cut out and taken from Scotland to be buried in Jerusalem. In Israel, legend has it that his dying wishes were fulfilled." Colin Grant, from "Victim of secret Holy Land power struggle?"
"Jihad, as a term, cannot be translated as 'holy war', nor can it be translated, as a term, as the word 'struggle'. At best, its legal meaning can be understood as "using military force, where diplomacy fails, to remove the obstacles the Islamic State faces in carrying its ideology to mankind". The aim of Jihad, unlike the Crusades, past and present, is not to forcibly convert the inhabitants of other lands to Islam. Rather, it is to provide them with the security that comes from the application of Islam, leaving them the choice of adopting Islam or keeping their own religions. The affairs of the society however must be run according to Islamic law. History confirms that this is and always has been the role of Jihad, for it was in Muslim Spain that the Muslims, Christians, and Jews were able to live peacefully under an Islamic authority. It was Islam's justice that allowed non-Muslims in the Islamic State to flourish as artisans, writers, and thinkers. from "The Concept Of Jihad In Islam"
“Does Modern Europe appreciate how desperate the Moslem assault was,
or what far inroads it made into Christendom? Spain was at last recovered
by centuries of hard fighting, but the Inquisition did not get rid of the
last rebellious and secret remnant of Mohammedanism there till after eight
hundred years. In the East Mohammedanism advanced to the capture of Constantinople
within the lifetime of the Reformation. While the Reformation was already
in action, it seized Hungary, and as late as the end of the seventeenth
century, after Dutch William had ruined Ireland and usurped England, it
hung by a hair whether Vienna itself should not be ruled by Islam and the
Church of St. Stephen become a mosque; for Vienna was only barely saved
by the gallantry of a Polish King, when Marlborough was already approaching
middle age, when Louis XIV was growing old, when Newton was publishing
his “Principles.”
Hilaire Belloc, from How the Reformation Happened
"The Apocalypse reneged on its promise at the century rollover in the
year 1000 A.D. People had sold their
possessions, and given up on the world, to fast and do penances as
the hour approached. The only result was
indirect: The economy and productivity of Europe was severely stifled.
Work on just about every level of society
(in Europe) slowed to a crawl from roughly 950 AD to 1050 AD. When
it finally became evident that Judgment
Day and God's Kingdom weren't coming, work began again on Cathedrals,
books were again copied and
illuminated, and a search for the reason why began in earnest. The
Crusading excursions and armies sent to the
East may have had this apocalyptic failure in mind. The biggest clue
was the Moslem domination of Jerusalem
and the Holy Land. Perhaps the Messiah could not fulfill His obligation
without His pre-ordained property. Or so
the thinking went. Also there was a certain fear among theologians
that perhaps their dates and predictions
were wrong because of some yet undiscovered information or artifacts.
The search for such clues, and Relics,
and the removal of the infidels, were all involved in the creation
of the Order of the Knights of the Temple.
Robert Brazi,
from "Apocalypse Never"
"During Islamic rule history records neither Jewish nor Christian sites have been violated in Jerusalem rule lasting around 1500 years. History is aware of the Roman persecution of Jews and Christains in antiquity. Muslims recognised the rights of the Christians and Jews in Jerusalem and they were given permission to visit the city and settle there, although under the Crusaders there was a ban on Jewish settlement. If Muslim rule was not tolerant under over a thousand year rule, the wailing wall of the Jews and Christian Holy sites would have been obliterated." Siddiq Ghouse, from "Muslims and Jerusalem"
"In the year 1095 the Catholic Church, aroused by the Muslim encroachments in Palestine, proclaimed a crusade against the Saracens to recover Jerusalem and the Holy Sepulcher. The following year, in the spring of 1096, bands of zealous crusaders led by Monks and soldiers set out for the Holy Land. Many of the crusaders were pious; but there can be no question that many also were runaway serfs, ambitious business men, adventurers, and criminals." Jacob Marcus, from The Jew in the Medieval World: A Sourcebook
"Al-Hakim’s demolition of the Holy Sepulchre spurred the launch of the first Crusade, a military campaign ecreed by Pope Urban II to seize the Holy Land from Muslim rule. The Pope’s call ignited the popular imagination in western Europe, and the capture of Jerusalem in 1099 inspired a new burst of growth in the Christian cult of the Holy Land. The Dome of the Rock, the Islamic shrine built on the site of the Israelite Temple, was now seen as the Temple of Solomon itself, and the place where, in the Gospel narratives, Jesus was presented to the priests. The “Temple” was absorbed into the “way of the cross,” the pilgrims’ tour of the sites associated with the life and death of Jesus. In the Jerusalem of the Crusaders, a new cult of the Temple came into being, established by the Templars – the Poor Knights of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon – a religious military order that mades its headquarters inside the Dome of the Rock. They developed a Gnostic mysticism – secret religious knowledge – based on a sacred geometry of the octogon (after the octagonal shape of the Dome of the Rock) and on a concept of God as the architect of the world, as Solomon had been architect of the Temple.” Edward Fox, from Sacred Geometry: a Tale of Murder and Archeology in the Holy Land
"Hail, then holy city, city of our salvation! Hail to thee, dwelling
place of the Great King, whence have emanated all the wonders of ancient
and modern times which have rejoiced the work! Queen of nations, capital
of empires, see of patriarchs, mother of prophets and apostles, first cradle
of our faith, glory and honor of Christianity! Hail, promised land, once
flowing with milk and honey for thy first children, thou hast produced
the food of life and the medicine of immortality for all future ages. Yes,
city of God, great things have been spoken of thee!"
St. Bernard of Clairvaux
"Whilst the holy Abbot of Clairvaux was thus occupied in preaching throughout France, Germany was troubled with violent disorders, which excited his solicitude to the utmost degree. Popular enthusiasm almost always oversteps the prescribed bounds, even when it proceeds from a good motive; it is a difficult matter to preserve it from the influence of human passions; and the people, blinded by frenzy, become cruel, and call for victims to satisfy their fury. At the time of the First Crusade, the impetuous zeal of the soldiers of the cross had been kindled against the Jews, under the pretext of not leaving at home those enemies of Christ whom they were going to attack in a distant land. Upon the occasion of every new expedition fresh scenes of carnage took place; and the second Crusade had no sooner been announced, than a persecution of this kind was declared on all the towns bordering on the Rhine. A German monk named Rodolph left the cell of his monastery to summon the people to exterminate both Jews and Saracens. His vehement words met with a too ready sympathy in all the provinces which he visited. At Cologne, Mentz, Worms, Spires, and Strasbourg, the cries of death to the Jews were mingled with the war-cries of the Crusaders; and the holy cause of Christian chivalry was very nearly compromised by the most culpable excesses." Theodore Ratisbonne, from St Bernard of Clairvaux
"Thus were the precious children of Zion, the Jews of Mayence, tried
with ten trials like Abraham, our father, and
like Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah [who were thrown into a fiery furnace,
Daniel 3:21]. They tied their sons as
Abraham tied Isaac his son, and they received upon themselves with
a willing soul the yoke of the fear of God,
the King of the Kings of Kings, the Holy One, blessed be He, rather
than deny and exchange the religion of our
King [Isaiah l4: 19] "an abhorred offshoot [Jesus]....They stretched
out their necks to the slaughter and they, delivered their pure souls to
their Father in heaven. Righteous and pious women bared their throats to
each other, offering to be sacrificed for the unity of the Name. A father
turning to his son or brother, a brother to his sister, a woman to her
son or daughter neighbor to a neighbor or a friend, a groom to a bride,
a fiancé to fiancee, would kill and would be killed, and blood touched
blood, The blood of the men mingled with their wives', the blood of the
fathers with their children's, the blood of the brothers with the sisters,
the blood of the teachers with their disciples', the blood of the grooms
with their brides', the blood of the leaders with the cantors', the blood
of the judges with their scribes', and the blood of infants and sucklings
with their mothers'. For the unity of G'd's honored and aweinspiring
Name were they killed and slaughtered." Soloman

Khazars
"A thousand years before the establishment of the Modern State of Israel, there existed a Jewish kingdom in the eastern fringes of Europe, astride the Don and Volga rivers..." Kevin Brook, from: THE KHAZARS: A European Experiment in Jewish Statecraft
"This mysterious kingdom, which has sculpted our modern world to an
astounding (and alarming) degree, once occupied an immense land area of
over a million square miles extending from western Hungary/Austria eastward
to the Aural Sea, north to the Upper Volga, and its southern region extending
to the Caucasus Mountains between the Black and Caspian seas. It was at
that time literally the largest country on earth. It has only been in the
last several decades, however, that greater documented evidence from
ancient manuscripts has come to light and revealed the astonishing historical
truth of this ancient kingdom and its connection to the origins of modern-day
Israel."
Greg Felton,
from: "Israel: A monument to anti-Semitism"
"The Khazars played a major role in principal wars in the Caucasus region. First, in the early 7th century, they joined with Turks and Byzantines to defeat the Persian state. Then, in the 7th and 8th centuries, they defended the southeastern frontier of Europe from invasion by the Arabs, indirectly allowing Christianity to survive in Byzantium and subsequently thrive in Ukraine. As one of the principal authorities on the Khars, Professor Peter Golden of Rutgers University, wrote in his book Khazar Studies: "Every schoolchild in the West has been told that if not for Charles Martel and the battle of Poitiers there might be a mosque where Notre Dame now stands. What few schoolchildren are aware of is that if not for the Khazars... Eastern Europe might well have become a province of Islam." The subsequent peaceful period in the eastern European steppes has been named the "pax khazarica" since it was the Khazars who enabled various tribes, like Slavs, to expand their settlements and engage in productive activities, free from the threat of warfare and strife." Kevin Brook, from: THE KHAZARS: A European Experiment in Jewish Statecraft
"The remarkable country of the Khazars first entered the Jewish orbit
when it allowed Jews to settle in their
land free from persecution. Jewish refugees from Byzantium, Persia,
Mesopotamia, and elsewhere flooded
into the Khazar realm from the 8th through the 10th centuries, bringing
with them Hebrew literacy, a love for
Israel, the Jewish religion, and technological skill. The Cambridge
Document, translated by Norman Golb in
his co-authored book Khazarian Hebrew Documents of the Tenth Century,
stated that immigrant Armenian
Jews "intermarried with the inhabitants of the land, intermingled with
the gentiles, learned their practices, and
would continually go out with them to war; [and] they [Mideastern Jews
and Khazarians] became one people...."
Kevin
Brook, from: THE KHAZARS: A European Experiment in Jewish Statecraft
"In A.D. 740, the khagan (ruler) of Khazaria, decided that paganism wasn't good enough for his people and decided to adopt one of the "heavenly" religions: Judaism, Christianity or Islam. After a process of elimination he chose Judaism, and from that point the Khazars adopted Judaism as the official state religion. The history of the Khazars and their conversion is a documented, undisputed part of Jewish history, but it is never publicly discussed. It is, as former U.S. State Department official Alfred M. Lilienthal declared, "Israel's Achilles heel," for it proves that Zionists have no claim to the land of the Biblical Hebrews. Thus what we know as the "Jewish State" of Israel is really an ethnocentric garrison state established by a non-Semitic people for the declared purpose of dispossessing and terrorizing a civilian semitic people. In fact from Nov. 27, 1947, to May 15, 1948, more that 300,000 Arabs were forced from their homes and villages. By the end of the year, the number was close to 800,000 by Israeli estimates. Today, Palestinian refugees number in the millions. Greg Felton, from: "Israel: A monument to anti-Semitism"
"The earliest possible date is Yehuda HaLevi's estimate of 740. Abd-al-Jabbar al-Hamdani and other Middle Eastern writers claim the conversion happened during the reign of the Abbasids. Al-Masudi would have us believe that the conversion took place sometime between 786 and 809. But according to Constantine Zuckerman of the Collège de France (Paris), the Khazars' conversion to Judaism probably took place in the 9th century rather than in the 8th century. This argument has also been taken up by Jonathan Shepard and Kevin Brook, who state that the first record of Khazarian Judaism dates only to about the year 864, and that the Byzantine missionaries Cyril and Methodius upon their arrival in Khazaria in 860 approached and debated with a people whom had not yet adopted full Judaism. It used to be argued that the Khazars could not have sincerely adopted Judaism if they still had good relations with the Christian Byzantines even in the late 8th century. But historical analysis destroys this argument by showing that the decline in the Byzantine-Khazar relationship is tied directly to the time of the Khazar conversion to Judaism, and may be dated as occurring sometime after the 830s." "When did the Khazars convert to Judaism: 8th or 9th century?"
"Unfortunately, in 1016 C.E., the Russians, with the help of Byzantium,
crushed the Khazar kingdom and brought
it to a close. What happened to all the Khazar Jews, both the descendants
of the converts and the settlers, is
shrouded in mystery. They were certainly dispersed in many of the neighboring
lands. It is conceivable,
according to || some scholars, that some of them are the forebears
of the Polish and Russian Jews of previous
generations. Who knows? If your ancestors came from these lands, you
may have the blood of kings in you - not
David and Solomon, but kings who voluntarily chose to join the fate
of a people whose religion they acknowledged as true." Benjamin Blech,
from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Jewish History and Culture
"Nathan M. Pollock has a beef with the Israeli government. His elaborate plans to celebrate this September the 1,000th anniversary of the Jewish Khozaralliance were summarily rejected. An elderly meek-looking man who migrated to Israel from Russia 43 years ago, Pollock ekes out a living as a translator of scientific texts and proofreader in a publishing firm. But his great passion, hobby, and avocation is historic research. He has devoted 40 of his 64 years to trying to prove that six out of 10 Israelis and nine out of 10 Jews in the Western Hemisphere are not real Jews' Jews, but descendants of fierce Khozar tribes wich roamed the steppes of southern Russia many centuries ago. For obvious reasons the Israeli authorities are not at all eager to give the official stamp of approval to Pollock's theories. "For all we know, he may be 100 per cent right," said a senior government official. "In fact, he is not the first one to discover the connection between the Jews and Khozars. Many famous scholars, Jews and non-Jews, stressed these links in their historical research works." Leo Heiman, from: "The Jews That Aren't
"According to Pollock, whose parents came from Poland, if your name is Halperin, Alpert, Halpern, Galpern, etc., you are 100 per cent Khozar. "Alper" menas "brave knight" in the Khozar tongue, and the name was granted by the king to the most distinguished warriors. Names like Kaplan, Caplon, Koppel, and the like, are positive proof of Khozar descent, according to the scholar. "Kaplan" means "fierce hawk" in the Khozar language. Kogan, Kagan, Kaganovich show aristocratic descent from Kagan, Hagan, King Bulan's chief-minister." Leo Heiman, from: "The Jews That Aren't
Medieval Quotes about Khazar Judaism
"Christian of Stavelot, in Expositio in Matthaeum Evangelistam (864):
"At the present time we know of no nation in
the world where Christians do not live. For in the lands of Gog
and Magog who are a Hunnish race and call
themselves Gazari there is one tribe, a very belligerent one -
Alexander enclosed them and they escaped -
and all of them profess the Jewish faith. The Bulgars,
however, who are of the same race, are now
becoming Christians."
Abd al-Jabbar ibn Muhammad al-Hamdani, in The Establishment of Proofs
for the Prophethood of Our Master
Muhammad (c. 1009-1010):
"One of the Jews undertook the conversion of
the Khazars, who are composed of many peoples, and they
were converted by him and joined his religion.
This happened recently in the days of the Abbasids.... For
this was a man who came single-handedly to
a king of great rank and to a very spirited people, and they
were converted by him without any recourse
to violence and the sword. And they took upon themselves
the difficult obligations enjoined by the
law of the Torah, such as circumcision, the ritual ablutions, washing
after a discharge of the semen, the prohibition
of work on the Sabbath and during the feasts, the prohibition
of eating the flesh of forbidden animals according
to this religion, and so on."
Dimashqi (1327):
"Ibn-al-Athir tells how in the days of Harun,
the emperor of Byzantium forced the Jews to emigrate. They
came to the Khazar country, where they found
an intelligent but untutored race and offered them their
religion. The inhabitants found it better
than their own and accepted it."
Judaism has always welcomed converts like the Khazars into the Jewish fold as equals:
"And when a stranger sojourns with you and will keep the Passover to
the Lord, let all his males become circumcised,
and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that
is a native of the land; for no uncircumcised
person shall eat it. One law shall be to him that is homeborn and to
the stranger that sojourns among you." (Exodus
12:48)
"The Jews were dispersed among the nations so as to make converts." (Pesakhim 87b)
"Converts are beloved; in every way God considers them as part of Israel."

The Struggle for Israel
"Eventually, in 1875 (the Earl of) Shaftesbury became president of the Palestine Exploration Fund....His mystical belief in Britain's instrumental role in returning the Jews to Palestine - for the sake of Christianity rather than Judaism - was the ideological force behind Britain's increasing political involvement in Palestine throughout the nineteenth century. This involvement could be seen later in British support for Zionism, as expressed in the Balfour Declaration of 1917, and in Britain itself assuming control over Palestine in 1921...." Edward Fox, from Sacred Geometry: a Tale of Murder and Archeology in the Holy Land
"When World War I broke out in 1914, Palestine was firmly in the grasp
of the Ottoman Empire. By 1916, there was widespread speculation, even
in the secular press, about the restoration of a Jewish homeland if the
Turks could be vanquished. By late 1917, events were rapidly moving along
those lines. As British forces fought their way into Palestine from the
south, Lord Arthur Balfour, the British foreign secretary, wrote to Lord
James Rothschild, a leader in international Zionism: "His Majesty's Government
view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for
the Jewish people, and will use their best efforts to facilitate the achievement
of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be
done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish
communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by
Jews in
any other country." Timothy
P. Weber, from "How Evangelicals Became Israel's Best Friend"
"Five weeks after the Balfour Declaration, the Turks surrendered Jerusalem
to British forces, virtually without a fight. This sent shock waves through
dispensationalist ranks. Here was the most concrete proof ever that the
"times of the Gentiles" were coming to an end. It made little difference
to dispensationalists that Jerusalem had passed from one Gentile power
to another. The important thing was that the British had declared their
intention to establish a Jewish state. If the "times of the Gentiles"
were coming to an end, could the restoration of Israel be far behind?
Dispensationalists could barely contain themselves. Arno C. Gaebelein,
editor of Our Hope, called the coming restoration of Israel "the sign of
all signs." In 1918, dispensationalists organized two well-attended prophetic
conferences in New York and Philadelphia, where the real possibility of
establishing
a Jewish state got much attention." Timothy
P. Weber, from "How Evangelicals Became Israel's Best Friend"
"There's a strong feeling in the Arab world that the West bitterly betrayed
the Arabs after World War I, when it broke up the Ottoman Empire. And it
was this betrayal that marked the first chapter of modern Western involvement
in the Arab world. When World War I broke out, the Middle East had
been ruled for hundreds of
years by the Ottoman Turks, who were allied with Germany. Around 1914,
the British encouraged the Emir of Mecca, Sheikh Hussein (great grandfather
of Jordan's late King Hussein), to lead a revolt against the Turks in Saudi
Arabia, promising independence if he could drive them out. As Arabs see
this history, they rose against the Turks and drove them out, but instead
of being granted independence, the Arab world was betrayed.
First, the British had secretly accepted a proposal by the Zionist
movement to create a homeland for the Jewish people in post-Ottoman Palestine,
which would give a good part of the territory to a people who at that time
were a minority of the population. The second thing that happened
was that in the 1916 Sykes-Picot agreement, the British and French agreed
to divide up the Middle East between them and were mandated by the League
of Nations to rule these areas, postponing independence. Needless to say,
Arab nationalists have always viewed these events 80 years ago as a betrayal
of promises to the Arabs, and as laying the foundations for a Jewish state
by force of Western arms." Starcats,
from: "The Crusades & Jihad"
"After Hitler's rise to power, immigration from Central Europe accelerated... This development was anathema to the Arabs, who were afraid of losing their numerical superiority in Eretz Israel. They demanded that the Mandatory government call a halt to immigration and ban the sale of land to Jews. When they received no response, they launched a campaign of terror, both against the Jews and against the British Mandate." Prof. Yehuda Lapidot, from "Resistance and Retaliation"
"On May 17, 1939, the British Government published Parliamentary Document 6019, known as the White Paper. This document set out its political aims with regard to Palestine:
The objective
of His Majesty's Government is the establishment within ten years of an
independent
Palestinian State in such treaty relations with the United Kingdom as will
provide satisfactorily
for the commercial and strategic requirements of both countries
in the future.
In order to guarantee the Arab character of the Palestinian State, immigration
was to be restricted so that the
number of Jews in the country would not exceed one-third of the total
population. If economic absorptive
capacity permitted, over five years some 75,000 Jews were to be admitted,
and at the end of that period "no
further Jewish immigration will be permitted unless the Arabs of Palestine
are prepared to acquiesce in it." In
addition to the restrictions on immigration, the document also stipulated
limitations on land purchase by Jews in
most of the country:
there is now
in certain areas no room for further transfers of Arab land, whilst in
some
other areas
such transfers of land must be restricted if Arab cultivators are to maintain
their existing
standard of life and a considerable landless Arab population is not soon
to be created."

These are the goals of the organization during the period of war
and conquest:
5. Education
Educate the nation to love
freedom and zealously guard
Israel's eternal patrimony. Inculcate the idea that the nation
is master to its own fate. Revive the doctrine that "The sword
and the book came bound together from heaven". (Midrash Vayikra
Rabba 35:8)

The unification of the entire
nation around the banner of
the Hebrew freedom movement. The use of the genius, status and
resources of individuals and the channeling of the energy,
devotion and revolutionary fervor of the masses for the war of
liberation.
7. Pacts
Make pacts with all those
who are willing to help the
struggle of the organization and provide direct support.

15. Ingathering of the Exiles
Total ingathering of the
entire exiles to their sovereign state.
16. Power
The Hebrew nation shall
become a first-rate military,
political, cultural and economic entity in the Middle East and
around the Mediterranean Sea.
17. Revival
The revival of the Hebrew
language as a spoken language by
the entire nation, the renewal of the historical and spiritual
might of Israel. The purification of the national character in

"Zionism accepts anti-Semitism as the natural, normal attitude of the non-Jewish world toward the Jew.

"The harnessing of religious energies is clear in popular depictions of Theodor Herzl, the Viennese Jewish journalist whose Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State) became Zionism's manifesto and who founded the organized Zionist movement in 1897. Herzl was utterly nonreligious. But as a correspondent in Paris, he covered the framing of French army captain Alfred Dreyfus for treason, and the wave of anti-Semitism it set off in France. The afffair convinced him Jews would be safe only if they had a state - "The house which is to shelter the Jewish nation." The phrase is packed: It defines the Jews not as a faith community but as a secular nationality. And it argues for a state as "shelter" - in Herzl's view, an answer to immediaite dangers, not the ideal kingdom of the Last Days." Gersom Gorenberg, from: The End of Days

Headed by future Prime Minister Menachem Begin, the National Military Organization, also known as Etzel or Irgun, preached a philosophy promoting the killing and maiming of Arabs in order to drive them out of the land divinely promised for a Jewish state. The other was the so-called Stern Gang, the "Fighters for the Freedom of Israel," also known as Lehi (Neff, 1998). The two groups together were the most active in performing violent acts targeted at Arabs and their supporters. On July 22, 1946, acting on orders from Moshe Sneh of the Haganah General Headquarters, Begin's Irgun blew up the King David Hotel in Jerusalem. Using the presence of the British military headquarters in the hotel as an excuse, Irgun members dressed as Arabs planted 350 kg of explosives in the basement of the hotel, aiming for the greatest damage possible. After setting the explosive fuses for a 30 minute delay, the Irgun left the building and called the hotel, claiming an explosion was going to occur within the half-hour; however, the hotel management chose to treat the threat as a joke. As a result, the ensuing explosion killed 35 people, including 17 Jews, and leveled the entire south wing of the King David hotel. The Jewish Agency immediately condemned the bombing in order to avoid retaliation from Britain; however, a year later Irgun admitted that their actions were under the approval of the Haganah . The Jewish residents of Palestine, many of who supported Irgun's radical tactics, now recognized Begin's group as the leader of violent resistance against British rule (Irgun 1); those who didn't were subject to beatings (Neff, 29). Nearly two years later, the Irgun again used explosives to wreak havoc on the Palestinian population. On January 4, 1948, members of Irgun, again acting on orders from the Haganah, drove a produce truck loaded with explosives into the main square of the Arab city of Jaffa. After retreating to a safe distance, they detonated the truck, killing at least 26 Palestinian men, women and children." Shoaib Kamil, from "Lesser-Known Israeli Terrorism"
" The entire southern wing of the King David Hotel - all seven storeys - was totally destroyed. For reasons unclear, the staff of the government secretariat and the military command remained in their rooms. Some of them were unaware of events, and others were not permitted to leave the building, thus accounting for the large number of victims trapped in the debris. For ten days, the British Engineering Corps cleared the wreckage, and on July 31 it was officially announced that 91 people had been killed in the explosion: 28 Britons, 41 Arabs, 17 Jews and 5 others. The success of the Jewish underground in striking at the heart of British government in Palestine, and the high toll of victims, sent shock waves through England and the rest of the world." Prof. Yehuda Lapidot, from: "The Bombing of the King David Hotel"
"When World War II began, one group of these terrorists, called Irgun Zvai Leumi and headed by future Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, declared a cease-fire with the British. The other group, Lehi, the Hebrew acronym for "Fighters for the Freedom of Israel " tried to ally itself first with fascist Italy, then with Nazi Germany and finally with Stalinist Russia. Lehi became known as the ''Stern Gang" after its founder, Avraham Stern, who eventually was killed by the British, while his followers killed some 300 British policemen and soldiers. Leadership passed to a triumvirate consisting of Yizernitzky, Israel Sheib and Nathan Friedman-Yellin. They ordered the 1944 assassination of Lord Moyne, the British governor general of Cairo." Richard H. Curtiss, from: "Why Did Syria Call Israel's Prime Minister a "Terrorist"?"
"The war and its implications were on everyone’s mind and the Stern Gang began to explain their unique position in a series of underground radio broadcasts. There is a difference between a persecutor and an enemy. Persecutors have risen against Israel in all generations and in all periods of our diaspora, starting with Haman and ending with Hitler ... The source of all our woes is our remaining in exile, and the absence of a homeland and statehood. Therefore, our enemy is the foreigner, the ruler of our land who blocks the return of the people to it. The enemy are the British who conquered the land with our help and who remain here by our leave, and who have betrayed us and placed our brethren in Europe in the hands of the persecutor. Stern turned away from any kind of struggle against Hitler and even began to fantasise about sending a guerrilla group to India to help the nationalists there against Britain. [3] He attacked the Revisionists for encouraging Palestinian Jews to join the British Army, where they would be treated as colonial troops, “even to the point of not being allowed to use the washrooms reserved for European soldiers”. Lenni Brenner, from: "The Stern Gang" in Zionism in the Age of the Dictators
"On February 1, 1944, the Irgun proclaimed a revolt against British rule over Palestine and demanded that the British leave the country forthwith and a Jewish state be established. The gradual intensification of military action against the Mandatory government undermined the basis of British rule. These operations, carried out with the Lehi (Fighters for the Freedom of Israel) and occasionally with the Haganah as well, ultimately forced the British government to bring the question of the future of Palestine before the United Nations. On November 29, 1947, the UN Assembly decided to partition Palestine into two states: a Jewish state, the State of Israel, and a Palestinian-Arab state." Prof. Yehuda Lapidot, from: "Introduction"
"Historically the Stern Gang (Fighters for the Freedom of Israel), was "officially" disbanded in 1948, but exists to this day in covert form. In post-war British-mandated Palestine the words Stern Gang equalled "terrorism" - assassinations, bombings, the full works. Even after independence, mainstream Jews continued to regard these Jewish terrorists as an extremist and ultimately insignificant aberration in the Zionist movement - until that is it was revealed that the Likud foreign minister of the 1970s, Yitzhak Shamir, had been the gang's operations commander."

"Both the process of expropriation and removal of the poor must be carried out discreetly and circumspectly." Theodore Herzl, from The Complete Diaries, Chapter 1
"Theodor Herzl wrote that Zionism's twin goals were to allow the Jewish
people to "live at last as free men on our own soil, and in our homes peacefully
die." And Zionism has achieved the first: a democratic, modern, liberal
society, curious, scientific, on the cutting edge of medicine, accountable,
transparent, and extremely
plural. (Whatever hardships Arab citizens of Israel endure, they are
mostly attributable to the unremitting enmity to Israel of their cousins
in the neighborhood; and they are, still, the freest Arabs in the region.)
Still, the second goal remains elusive. The Jews of Israel still cannot
be sure that they will be allowed to die peacefully in their homes. In
fact, the angel of death has intruded on their ordinary civilian lives
for more than one century now."

Asked if he would favor bombarding Palestinian cities and causing thousands of deaths among civilians, Creveld answered positively."Yes, as much as is needed in order that there will not be a need to repeat it, so that they won't tail us during the time of the withdrawal. We have to strike so hard that there won't be a need for a second strike. Perhaps 5000, or 10,000 killed won't be enough and then we will have to kill more." Creveld, who was introduced as a renowned military historian, said mass killing would have to be done so quickly and so strongly that until the world understood what was happening the matter would be over." He admitted that this would be a crime, adding that being right or wrong wouldn't play a part in this matter. "What is involved is a massive crime, but whoever isn't willing to commit crimes in order to save his country shouldn't engage in statesmanship, it is better that there be one massive crime after which we will exit and lock the gate behind us."

"To Jews who adhere to ancient tradition, whose number include religious
Israeli nationalists, the long-awaited
Messiah will return to become the king of Israel and high priest
of a rebuilt Temple, which can only be on Temple Mount. For Christian fundamentalists,
Jesus Christ's return at the height of the battle of Armageddon, in which
forces of the Antichrist clash in Israel with a 200 million-man army from
the East, will require a Third
Temple from which the Lord will begin a millennial reign. And for Muslims,
an Antichrist figure called the Dajal will be a Jew who will lead an all-encompassing
war against Islam, which will culminate in the return of Jesus (as a Muslim
prophet), the Kaaba, or Sacred Rock in Mecca, transporting itself to Jerusalem,

"Israel has needed all the friends it can get, and evangelicals have
been loyal, productive supporters. When Israel invaded Lebanon in 1982,
no one defended it more strenuously in the U.S. than evangelicals. At one
time, Israeli prime ministers could count on the strong support of both
the U.S. President and the American Jewish community. But the present prime
minister has neither. Netanyahu's relationship with President Clinton is
strained, and the Jewish community is deeply divided over some policies
of Israel's present government.
Netanyahu was correct when he said that American evangelicals are the
best friends Israel (i.e., his government) has." Timothy

"Fundamentalist lunatic Tim LaHaye and wife Beverly LaHaye, are
key leading members of the network of Christendom College, through
the Religious Roundtable, that includes the infamous Paul Weyrich, the
Catholic fascist identified in reports on the Christendom College
network, and Ed McAteer, the leader of Christian fundies who embrace the
Temple Mount conspiracy, and are blackmailing the White House to
give the Israeli government the right to exterminate Palestinians. The
Roundtable, founded by McAteer is another project
that survives through funding by the Olin Foundation, Scaife Family
Foundations, Bradley Foundation,
and Smith Richardson Foundation. Through the RR, the fascist currents
in Christian demoninations are brought together to turn their single
issue concerns into a political sledgehammer... Before creating Christendom,
Weyrich also worked with McAteer, Jerry Falwell, and Pat Robertson to create
the Moral Majority. Tim and Beverly LaHaye (who headed the Concerned Women
for America) are on the "Calvary Council" of the Roundtable along with
Weyrich; while McAteer is a past president of the RR. The RR's self
description says that it `promotes a strong military and strong law enforcement
and opposes abortion, pornography and divorce. The group is also an opponent
of the Equal rights Amendment and rights for gay people and is antcommunist
and anti-Soviet. The group is strongly pro-Israel .. and a clearinghouse''
for Right wing groups. LaHaye's Armaggedonist novels are explicitly used
to rally Christian support for the Temple Mount plot, and for supporting
the fanatics behind Ariel Sharon's war drive. McAteer is a close associate
of Herb Zweibon and the Zionists of America. Peters, a retired military
person with a lackluster record, made his living writing adventure novels.
In 2001, he was picked up by the Scaife/etc networks to put out a book
about special operations warfare to buttress the "new empire" push. Rosalinda,

"FOR THE SECOND DAY IN A ROW, Germany's {Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung}
profiles leading figures in the berserker "Christian fundamentalist" milieu
in the U.S. On 3/26, it was "100 Years War" advocate Ralph Peters,
who is much publicized by the Brzezinski network behind the Sept. 11 coup.
Today, it is Tim LaHaye, a top author on "Armageddon" themes, described
as "the most expensive author in the world," hence the article's title:
"51,000,000 Euros" 3/27/02; 3/26/02. LaHaye has authored a nine-volume
series on the coming "end-times." The most widely sold of these,
"Left Behind" (translated into German, under a title that would be, in
English, "The Last Days of Earth"), has sold 50 million copies. The co-author,
Jerry B. Jenkins, was formerly the ghost writer for televangelist Billy
Graham. In Oct. 2001, i.e., weeks after Sept. 11, LaHaye wrote, "Desecration:
Antichrist Takes the Throne." It has sold 2.8 million copies. A tenth
volume in the series is soon to appear.
LaHaye, now 75, underwent training, 50 years ago, at South Carolina's
Bob Jones University. He and Jenkins created, in San Diego, the Christian
Heritage College, a hotbed of fundamentalist activity. It is closely
linked
to their "Pre-Trib Research Center," with "Trib" referring to "Tribulation,"
when "the Antichrist is defeated." In his novels, the heroes who fight
the forces of the "Antichrist" are called the "Tribulation Force."
LaHaye believes, that the signs are now rampant, of the activity of the
"Antichrist." One is through the manifestations of Allah.
His hate-objects, otherwise, says FAZ, include the Roman Catholic
Church and the Pope, homosexuality, abortion, the United Nations and Israel."

interested in stealing Arab oil only insofar as he thinks he will benefit
his narrow ethnic and personal interests. The notion that in this mess

"Following are excerpts from the Friday prayer sermon delivered by PA Mufti Ikrama Sabri at the Al-Aksa mosque in Jerusalem on September 12, 1997. Sabri's sermon was broadcast on the Voice of Palestine, the PA's official radio station, immediately following the 10 minute address by U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright to Palestinians on the same station. Sabri is the official Mufti (senior Muslim cleric) of the PA, and was appointed to his position by Yasser Arafat.
"Oh Muslims, we must raise our voices against America, its ally Britain and all the infidel nations and say that Israel is stealing our land and establishing illegal settlements...Why does America support settlements in Israel? Are the settlements not terrorism? And therefore, America is the chief of the terrorists. Oh Allah, destroy America, her agents and her allies! Cast them into their own traps, and cover the White House with black!
Oh Muslims, our brothers in faith everywhere, the purpose of the American
Secretary of State's visit to Palestine is to support the Israeli position
regarding deceitful security and fanatical settlements...The strategic
covenant between Zionism and the Crusaders is a satanic alliance hostile
to Islam and the Muslims and we expect no good from it. The Muslim
masses in Palestine and the world over condemn Albright's declarations
issued today and in the past two days. The masses condemn America's pro-Israeli
stance, which demonstrates that global forces, the heretics, the terrorists
and those filled with hate are forging an alliance against Islam and Muslims...

"Oh Allah, destroy America, for she is ruled by Zionist Jews...Allah will
paint
the White House black! Clinton is fulfilling his reverend's will to identify
with
Israel...The Muslims say to Britain, to France and to all the infidel nations
that
Jerusalem is Arab. We shall not respect anyone else's wishes regarding
her.
The only relevant party is the Islamic nation, which will not allow infidel
nations
to interfere...The homes the Jews are building will become Arab property,

"More Effective Force" is a new six-part TV series. It shows that
nonviolent political struggle has constituted one of the most effective
and inventive forms of change in the 20th centur Local Palestinian TV stations
will begin showing this series on 21 March...The thrust of nonviolent struggle
for the achievement of just political objectives, especially when used
against a bestial, barbaric force and opposite great imbalances in power,
is not only extremely effective in the achievement of these objectives,
but often this is done more quickly....This message, which gains special
importance today in relation to the Palestinian people more than at any
other time, must give hope in addition to providing a new strategy for
a peaceable people. This people is primarily unarmed, occupied by a state
that is predominately military nature with full nuclear capability and
an arsenal of advanced conventional weapons." from: "Sari
Nusaybah Urges Palestinians To Pursue Nonviolent Conflict
Resolution"
"The recent events have clearly shown two things in particular: on one hand, the Palestinians have proved a high degree of readiness, determination, and extraordinary courage, yet Israel's military superiority has prevented them from achieving their political objectives. On the other hand, the Israelis will never be able to score decisive political victory over the Palestinians despite their overwhelming military superiority. Moreover, resorting to the strategy of nonviolence and its weapons by a primarily unarmed people can directly deprive the Israelis of the advantage of being the stronger military power. It will redefine the rules of the game in the battlefield and enable the unarmed Palestinians laboring under the burden of occupation to take the initiative and launch an attack that cannot be repulsed." from: "Sari Nusaybah Urges Palestinians To Pursue Nonviolent Conflict Resolution"
"The methods of nonviolent struggle are not strange to the Palestinian
people. Palestinians, men and women alike, used these methods during many
periods of their history, including against the Ottoman rule. And the 1987
intifadah in particular constituted a very advanced form of nonviolent
struggle. It was a popular revolution in the full sense of the word. It
had a clear political objective and unified strategy: replacing the octopus
of Israeli occupation with popular mechanisms of Palestinian authority
in all facets of life, from commerce to education...The concept of justice
is the energy that drives all nonviolent movements. It drives whole peoples,
and the justness of the Palestinian cause is not disputed. The biggest
proof of the commitment to this cause, which even reached the level of
sacrifice, has been confirmed in a painful way through the numbers of martyrs
of all ages all over the country." from: "Sari

"My non-cooperation has its root not in hatred, but in love." Gandhi, from: "National Independence in Not Enough"
"It is pointless to criticize Palestinians or Israelis for not achieving
the ideal of Gandhian nonviolence. Hardly anyone has achieved it.
But an understanding of that ideal helps to illuminate the profound evil
of the suicide bombers, who have nevertheless been embraced as "martyrs"by
the Palestinian mainstream. Briefly put, the practice of nonviolent resistance
(ahimsa) affirms the humanity of one's opponent even when that opponent
is acting with the utmost injustice. Under the right circumstances,
nonviolence can elicit a change of consciousness in the opponent, while
laying the foundation for a common future. As improbable as it sounds,
its truth has actually been demonstrated. By contrast, the suicide bombers
negate the humanity both of their
targets and of themselves, while undermining any hope for a common
future. As embodiments of radical hatred, these murderers deliberately
seek to kill non-combatants, and do not distinguish between young and old,
or even, most recently, between Arab and Jew. Theirs is a mindset
that has the potential to extinguish life on Earth. Unless the Palestinians
can find it within themselves to delegitimize the cult of murder-suicide,
they will continue to pose a danger to their neighbors and themselves,
and any future independence they may win will
be unstable."I cannot love Moslems or Hindus and hate Englishmen,"
Gandhi wrote. "For if I love merely Hindus and Moslems because their ways
are on the whole pleasing to me, I shall soon begin to hate them when their
ways displease me, as they may well do any moment." Steven
Aftergood, from: "Paestinian Nonviolence: A Road Not Taken"
"Practically nowhere one can find an Islamic terror organisation per se, fighting for the establishment of an Islamic state. Before the collapse of Communism, the Palestinians preferred a left-wing ideology to fight their oppressors. Among Palestinian militant leaders, a place of honour was held by a Christian, George Habash. HAMAS of Palestine grew as the only movement expressly permitted by the Zionist Apartheid state, while non-religious FATAH was suppressed. Thus, the feelings of the oppressed Palestinians were channelled by the Jews into this quasi-religious movement. Hezbollah fighters of Lebanon fought against Israeli and American occupation, not for the Islamic rule. They are similar to the Irish Republicans, not famous for their Islamic beliefs. Chechens continued their two-hundred year long war against Russian rule, building temporary alliances with America, Germany and Turkey. Their biggest alleged achievement, explosion of Moscow high-rise buildings, was actually performed by order of an Israeli citizen, Mr Anatoly Chubais [according to] another Israeli citizen, Dr Boris Berezovsky."

The Dome of the Rock and the Temple
"Our eschatological heifer story begins on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem,
where tens of millions of Jews,
Muslims, and Christians believe the central events of each tradition's
Last Days will play out. The site, the
Biblical Mount Moriah, was the site of the Hebrews' First Temple, destroyed
by Nebuchadnezzar in 586 BC,
and the Second Temple, which the Romans leveled in 70 AD. Muslims,
believing the site to be the place from
which the Prophet Mohammed ascended into Heaven atop a steed, began
in 685 to build the Noble Sanctuary, a 35-acre site in Jerusalem's walled
Old City, containing the Dome of the Rock shrine and the al Aqsa mosque.
Rod
Dreher, from: "Red-Heifer Days"
"It all has to do with eschatology, a religious conception of the Final
Days of mankind, a scenario mapped out
by three of the world’s major religions in very similar (and specific)
detail. The focus is on the Temple Mount
– the site of Ariel Sharon’s provocative visit that set off the current
intifada, and also site of the First Temple
of the Hebrews. Destroyed by King Nebuchadnezzar,, and then again by
the Romans, according to Jewish
traditionalists the Third Temple will be built by the Messiah, who
will be not only king of Israel but also high
priest of the rebuilt Temple. To the Muslim Palestinians, and their
co-religionists worldwide, this is the site of
the Dome of the Rock, a Muslim shrine, the sacred al-Aqsa mosque, and
the place where Mohammed
mounted a fine Arabian horse and galloped straight up to heaven. A
large number of Christian
fundamentalists have also imbued this spot with millennialist import:
according to this “dispensationalist”
view, Jesus Christ will return to earth to do battle on the plain of
Armageddon and triumph over the
Antichrist only after the building of the Third Temple." Justin
Raimondo, from "Beware the Red Heifer: How religious nutballs could start
World War III"
"To compound matters still further, archaeologist, biblical scholar and theologian Dr. Ernest Martin contends that the third Temple was not located on the Mount at all – which may account for Israeli negotiators readiness to bargain with the site. Yet despite this Sharon remains adamant; he wants the third Temple rebuilt on the Mount, in spite of such scholarly objections and the prospect of further bloodshed. And Sharon is not alone in his quest to rebuild the Temple. Alongside Sharon there are an array of Zionist fanatics, many of whom belong to the Gush Emunim movement. Headed by Rabbi Moshe Levinger the movement operates in much the same way as their fanatic counterparts in the Muslim world, although they don’t get nearly as much media attention." Rixon, from: "THE FINAL COUNTDOWN....10...9...8...7..."
"Landes says there is immense anger among Israelis, both religious and secular, at the ingratitude of Muslims, whom the conquering Israeli army allowed to occupy and control the Temple Mount in 1967. Add to this the fury of a nation under attack by Islamic suicide bombers, and, says Landes, "it's entirely conceivable that this [red heifer] could trigger a new round of attempts to blow up the Dome of the Rock." Rod Dreher, from: "Red-Heifer Days"
"Its facade was decorated with slabs of polished white marble, and gold plating flashed brightly in the sun. The 'temple' itself was contained within a complex of courts, cloisters, and chambers which Herod embellished. "The size of these perfectly cut stones can astonish a twentieth century visitor who has seen the Manhattan skyline just as it amazed the rustic Palestinian Jews of the first century", wrote A. N. Wilson, in his "Paul: the Mind of an Apostle." It was built on the highest point of the hill now occupied by the Dome of the Rock, with its flashing gold cupola over the Mosque whence Muhammad flew to heaven. The work was so holy that all the masons were consecrated as priests. Yet it had been rebuilt by Herod, the ambitious Arab, with money from the Romans. It didn't match the 3 billion dollars a year that the Empire now sends to its client ruler, Ariel Sharon, but it was a substantial patronage." Grant M Gallup, from "Homily Grits"
"Jerusalem is now under Israeli occupation since 1967 and Benjamin Netanyhu’s
government is further
expanding Jewish settlements in the Holy City. The original inhabitants
of Jerusalem including both
Christian and Muslim Arabs are being subjected to the harshest of treatment,
including oppression,
humiliation and expulsion. The Muslims, therefore taking all the above
facts are pre-eminently qualified to be the trustees and the guardians
of the Holy city of Jerusalem. Only under Islamic rule can the world communities
of
Judaism, Christianity and Islam feel re-assured that the sanctity of
all religious sites in Jerusalem be honoured and preserved. History has
proved this fact. It is the religously bound duty of every single
Muslim in the world to wage a struggle in every way possible for the liberation
of Jerusalem." Siddiq
Ghouse, from "Muslims and Jerusalem"
"Ever since Israel came into possession of old Jerusalem, in 1967, a
fanatical group of Israeli nationalists have tried to kick-start the eschatological
machinery, plotting the destruction of the Muslim shrines and busily constructing
the various ritual objects for use in the rebuilt Temple. These Israeli
nutballs have forged a natural alliance with our Christian nutballs, who
have their own theological rationale for hurrying Apocalypse along. They
are dispensationalists, who believe – among other things – that the colonization
of the Holy Land by the children
of Israel signals the second coming of Christ: the efforts of these
“Christian Zionists” account for the uncritical
support for Israel among many “born again” Christian conservatives."

"August 1993: For the first time Arabs gathered at the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem heard the assistant mufti, Sheikh Mahmud Aljemal, call for the killing of all Israeli Jews. The police had taped these comments but refused to hand them over to the office of the state legal advisor, Yosef Harish when National Religious Party MK Hanan Porat demanded that Harish charge Aljemal for incitement to murder. Nonetheless, in the previous six months 25 mosques were closed down by Israeli authorities after routine searches uncovered inciteful recordings by Islamic Fundamentalist leaders."

"If 9-11 was indeed the onset of World War III, we have to understand

Terrorism is just a tool. We're fighting to defeat an ideology: religious
totalitarianism. World War II and the Cold War
were fought to defeat secular totalitarianism -- Nazism and Communism --

view of the world that my faith must reign supreme and can be affirmed

"... Apocalyptic thinking is not universal. Among Christian churches,

and that Judgment is ongoing on a case by case basis." Robert
Brazi, from "Apocalypse Never"
"Now let's look beyond the fundamentalist application of Scripture to
the true meaning of the oracles for our time. The fire of God's judgment
that is coming does not terrify us who believe. And Jesus tells us
in the
gospel that the institutions we have come to believe are permanent
ones are not in fact so. The disciples thought, as did everyone,
that the Temple would last forever. It was still being rebuilt in Jesus'
time, with the
services of thousands of workers, for forty six years, and when it
was more or less completed in the early 60's 18,000 people were put out

"As Christian history makes clear, in the wrong hands the doctrines
of providence, divine sovereignty, and eschatology become fatalism; and
fatalism takes the significance out of human action. If the future is fixed,
people are merely playing out their assigned roles, with no ability to
alter the direction or outcome of the divine drama. If one is privy to
the process, one can identify the players, evaluate their performance,
and make
judgments about them. When one knows how the drama is going to end,
there are no surprises. At times, then,
dispensationalist prophecy can be quite fatalistic." Timothy

Kabba
"I have heard that Allah was one of the genies that hung out at Mecca. He was sort of like a demonic spirit." Pat Robertson, from "Islam Unveiled"
"Now we have Robertson... popping gaskets over Bush and the Establishment's multicultural embrace of Islam. To counter this, Robertson has launched a counter-propaganda campaign to make sure the good Christians of the US keep their guard and their hate towards Islam up. To assist in this endeavor, Robertson recently "interviewed" a former Muslim on his 700 Club who has had the good fortune to find Jesus. In classic apostate fashion, the interviewee trashes everything about Islam and thus perpetuates every possible negative stereotype about this tradition while creating some things I admit I have never heard of. For the life of me, I can't see how anyone reads and takes the New Testament to heart can foment so much hate and distrust." John deVille, from "Genies Hanging Out at Mecca"
"1 Just as our living universe has pyramid of light as the central matrix for star evolution between the universes of intelligence, so the anti-universe has its matrix dark cubic space which is the violation of the Living Light exemplified in the Kabba, the Black cube in Mecca." from: -The Keys of Enoch.
"2 The ninth key of Enoch deals with the salvation and destruction star universes within star energies trapped within a cubic function of darkness." -The Keys of Enoch.
"3 And this key was unveiled the year 1973 of the Earth's consciousness
time zone by the words of King Feisal who gathered at Mecca a host of two
million worshippers chanting "liberate Jerusalem." A news dispatch from
Beirut told
that he washed his hands, put on seamless garments and then approached
the Kabba, the Black Stone."
-The Keys of Enoch.
"4. This stone is said to be the White Stone that Adam brought out of the Garden of Eden and had gathered darkness by the corruption of man's sins." -The Keys of Enoch.
5. So we see in the Kabba the key geometries of the Anti-Christos and
the Ant-Zohar we see this even in the very language of the Islamic scholars
and leaders who gather at the Kabba to bow down to the Black Stone as they
prepare
to "liberate Jerusalem," which is known to be the place of the coming
"Pyramid Capstone of Light."
-The Keys of Enoch.
"Within this key the positive universe and the anti-universe come together through the mathematics of Light; on one hand through the Pleiades, Orion, and Jerusalem; on the other hand through alpha Draconis, omega Draconis, and Mecca."

America: The Land of the Great Satan
"America is now the 'Great Satan', the pinnacle of 'Westernisation'
and 'secularisation' to 'Islamists'. The
'Reformists' believe that the world is a unity, the tawhid 'oneness'
'or coherence in God'. What non-Muslim
countries and religions do destroys this 'oneness'. It is the duty
of the 'Reformists' to convince the rest of the
world that this is true and to convert it. The means are not important,
hence for some the death of any American
citizen is a positive action." Bill
Turnbull W.F Islam Through the Years - part 2
In Al-Misih al-Dajjal, Ayyub makes a single narrative of the world's past and future. It's a particularly dark telling of the divine novel, dominated by the antagonist - the dajjal, the Antichrist, at once a person and a faceless force, center of a Jewish consipracy whose machinations explain history. In Ayyub's telling every pope was a Jew. So was Martin Luther - who sent Jews to colonize America. So the U.S. "is now the principal center for the Jews," Ayyub says, and, "History bears witness that the United States of America, which has been occupied in all areas by the beliefs of the dajjal, is the chief enemy of Islam." Gershom Gorenberg, from The End of Days
"As the 19th century ran its course, the debate amongst millennialists
was won by the post-millennialists. The upshot was a never-ending American
mission to reform, Christianize, and republicanize the world by means of
the central state. There was an end, actually, but it involved the second
coming of Christ, once all this reforming
and republicanizing had been achieved. By the 20th century, the Christian
bits had largely fallen away from the great US moral crusade, as far as
the policy-makers were concerned, even if those themes still play in flyover
country. For 19th-century American expansionists each new conquest
of contiguous land was a great victory for republican liberty. It seems
to have been Andrew ("Ruthless") Jackson himself, who in 1843 coined
the phrase about "extending the area of freedom." The Mexican War is an
interesting test case. In May 1847, the New York Herald wrote, in terms
which would please any latter-day neo-conservative Boy Scout, that "The
universal Yankee nation can regenerate and disenthrall the people of Mexico
in a few years; and we believe it is a part of our destiny to civilize
that beautiful country and enable its inhabitants to appreciate some of
the many advantages and blessings they enjoy." Joseph
R. Stromberg, from "Neocons and Total War"
"Hegel’s system sought to answer a key problem in Protestant theology.
Marx sought to answer the same problem in secular terms. It would not be
surprising if the Hegelians, the latter-day Marxists, and the US
postmillennialists, secularized or otherwise, should all converge in
a great gnostic crusade for world betterment by benevolent imperialism.
Why not? They all believe in creating the Kingdom of God on Earth by incorporating
all of society into the state. Indeed, human freedom is not even possible
outside the embrace of the US empire."
Joseph
R. Stromberg, from "Neocons and Total War"
“A word rose to honor at the time of the Renaissance, and that summarized in advance the whole program of modern civilization is ‘humanism’. Men were indeed concerned to reduced everything of a higher order, and, one might say, symbolically to turn away from the heavens under the pretext of conquering the earth…” René Guénon, from: Crisis in the Modern World
"The United States represents the reductio ad absurdum of the negative and the most senile aspects of Western civilization. What in Europe exist in diluted form are magnified and concentrated in the United States whereby they are revealed as the symptoms of disintegration and cultural and human regression. The American mentality can only be interpreted as an example of regression, which shows itself in the mental atrophy towards all higher interests and incomprehension of higher sensibility. The American mind has limited horizons, one conscribed to everything which is immediate and simplistic, with the inevitable consequence that everything is made banal, basic and leveled down until it is deprived of all spiritual life. Life itself in American terms is entirely mechanistic. The sense of I in America belongs entirely to the physical level of existence. The typical American neither has spiritual dilemmas nor complications: he is a natural joiner and conformist." Julius Evola, from "American 'Civilization'"
"The notion of America as the new Israel, a God-fearing, perfect society set up apart from the rest of mankind - "a city on a hill" - was imported with the first English settlers in the seventeenth century, and remains an essential part of America's idea of itself." Edward Fox, from Sacred Geography: A Tale of Murder and Archeology in the Holy Land
"In a superior civilization, as, for example, that of the Indo-Aryans, the being who is without a characteristic form or caste... would emerge as a pariah. In this respect America is a society of pariahs. There is a role for pariahs. It is to be subjected to beings whose form and internal laws are precisely defined. Instead the modern pariahs seek to become dominant themselves and to exercise their dominion over all the world." Julius Evola, from "American 'Civilization'"
"Nor is this all: the modern period must necessarily correspond with the development of certain possibilities that have lain within the potentiality of the present cycle ever since its origin, and however low the rank of these possibilities in the hierarchy of the whole, they like the others were bound to manifest themselves at the appointed time." René Guénon, from Crisis in the Modern World
"Julius Evola (1898-1974) is today a prominent icon of fascist idealism. His ideal was the Indo-Aryan tradition, where hierarchy, caste, authority and state ruled supreme over the material aspects of life. Invoking the heroic and sacred values of this mythical tradition, Evola advanced a radical doctrine of anti-egalitarianism, anti-democracy, anti-liberalism and anti-Semitism. He scorned the modern world of popular rule and bourgeois values, democracy and socialism, seeing communism and capitalism as twin aspects of the benighted reign of materialism.” Nicolas Goodrick-Clarke, from Black Sun: Aryan Cults, Esoteric Nazism and the Politics of Identity
According to Julius Evola, the essence of "Americanism and its democracy ... is this: that everyone can become what he wants to, within the limits of the technological means at his disposal. Equally, a person is not what he is from his true nature and there is no real difference between people, only differences in qualifications. According to this theory anyone can be anyone he wants to be if he knows how to train himself. This is obviously the case with the self-made man; in a society which has lost all sense of tradition the notion of personal aggrandizement will extend into every aspect of human existence, reinforcing the egalitarian doctrine of pure democracy. If the basis of such ideas is accepted, then all natural diversity has to be abandoned. Each person can presume to possess the potential of everyone else and the terms superior and inferior lose their meaning; every notion of distance and respect loses meaning; all life-styles are open to all. To all organic conceptions of life Americans oppose a mechanistic conception. In a society which has started from scratch, everything has the characteristic of being fabricated. In American society appearances are masks not faces. At the same time, proponents of the American way of life are hostile to personality." Julius Evola, from "American 'Civilization'"
"The anti-democratic and anti-modernist tenor of Evola's political thought may be traced to his readings of Plato, Nietzsche and Oswald Spengler..."Nicolas Goodrick-Clarke, from Black Sun: Aryan Cults, Esoteric Nazism and the Politics of Identity
"The Americans' open-mindedness, which is sometimes cited in their favor,
is the other side of their interior
formlessness. The same goes for their individualism. Individualism
and personality are not the same: the one belongs to the formless world
of quantity, the other to the world of quality and hierarchy. The Americans
are the living refutation of the Cartesian axiom, I think, therefore I
am: Americans do not think, yet they are. The American mind, puerile and
primitive, lacks characteristic form and is therefore open to every kind
of standardization." Julius
Evola, from "American 'Civilization'"
"These days there seem to be as many of these accusers outside the Muslim world as inside it. Anybody who has visited Britain and Europe, or followed the public conversation there during the past five months, will have been struck, even shocked, by the depth of anti-American feeling among large segments of the population, as well as the news media. Western anti-Americanism is an altogether more petulant phenomenon than its Islamic counterpart, and, oddly, far more personalised. Muslim countries don't like America's power, its "arrogance", its success; in the non-American west, the main objection seems to be to American people. Night after night, I have found myself listening to Londoners' diatribes against the sheer weirdness of the American citizenry. The attacks on America are routinely discounted ("Americans only care about their own dead"). American patriotism, obesity, emotionality, self-centredness: these are the crucial issues." Salman Rushdie, from "Anti-Americanism has taken the world by storm"
"The structure of history is... cyclical not evolutionary. It is far
from being the case that the most recent
civilizations are necessarily superior. They may be, in fact, senile
and decadent. There is a necessary
correspondence between the most advanced stages of a historical cycle
and the most primitive. America is the final stage of modern Europe..."
Julius
Evola, from "American 'Civilization'"
"The Jew Room"
"Its nickname is the Jew Room. Inside the National Security Agency is an intelligence center from which all American Jews are banned, regardless of their proven loyalty or devotion to county, just as the U.S. Navy banned Jews from electronic surveillance ships, such as the USS Liberty...it is, and has been, the heart of the secret war against the Jews." John Loftus and Mark Aarons, from: The Secret War Against the Jews
"There is little doubt that there is, indeed, a Jew Room where information
is collected about American Jews and
Israel. According to Loftus, for many years it was housed at 218 Pennsylvania
Avenue, although it has been
movedto a suite of office in one of the new annexes. I am sure that,
if the Senate or House had an open
inquiry, we would find that, in all of our Intelligence Agencies, each
has a unit that spies on American Jews and
directs their collected information to a collection center - the "Jew
Room". Prior information indicates that this
processing center is managed by the F.B.I. to include monthly briefings.
This would likely be the responsibility of
the F.B.I. as started under J. Edgar Hoover." Emanuel
A. Winston, from "The Jew Room"
"A 1994 book, "The Secret War Against the Jews," by John Loftus and Mark Aarons, reported that the National Security Agency, which intercepts and decodes foreign government communications, banned Jewish-American employees from a unit known as "the Jew room," which monitors coded Israeli communications. Ciralsky charges that the CIA uses an "extraordinarily anti-Semitic" security profile, or a list of criteria, such as whether an employee speaks Hebrew, gives money to Zionist organizations, attends an Orthodox synagogue or has visited Israel, to measure whether a Jewish employee is a security risk. "That's why we're going to court," he told an associate. He is demanding that the CIA renounce the profile publicly and discard it, release him for his White House assignment and undertake a "thorough" reevaluation of its polygraph program, which began in 1952." Jeff Stein, from: "Does the CIA stereotype Jews as security risks?
"The Jew room was a filter for Jewish names in all walks of life. Whether you were a scientist employed in producing secret weapons for the government, a professor at a university or a leader in the Jewish community, your name was likely in the files of the "Committee". When Jonathan Pollard was caught revealing information about Arab countries' armaments and plans (particularly Iraq's gas and chemical capability), this was the opportunity people like Caspar Weinberger were waiting for. Every Jew became suspect and was purged from the top levels of government service. It was an ugly period, which may still be ongoing. Why was such life and death information withheld from Israel by Weinberger and Admiral Bobby Ray Inman, Director of the NSA, National Security Agency? That big question was never answered." Emanuel A. Winston, from "The Jew Room"
"Although Jewish names had been prominent in the legal profession and on Wall Street since the founding of the American republic, in the aftemath of the 1967 Six-Day War between Israel and her Arab neighbors, Zionist power took on a whole different proportion. Again, Henry Kissinger's position in the Nixon administration symbolized the fact that the pro-Israel lobby had moved in with a vengeancs. to the corridors of power in the nation's capital. Even on Wall Street the 1970s and 1980s had seen a new generatian of Jewish financiers come into power, replacing their more cultured and Anglicized predecessors. The WASP Establishment had developed a tolerance of and working relationship with the largely German Jewish bankers known among themselves as "Our Crowd." The new upstart Wall Street Zionists, however, were viewed by the WASPs as a collection of gangsters. If the Skull & Bonesmen needed a legitimate justification for reviving their ever-present dislike of the East European Ashkenazic Jews, the Wall Street Zionists whs became known as the so-called "New Crowd" provided them with all the excuses necessary. When Jonathan Jay Pollard, a Naval intelligence analyst, was arrested in November 1985 and charged with spying for Israel against the United States, there was a resurgence of more unabashed antisemitism among the Bonesmen and their blueblood upperclass mates. It has since become a hallmark of the Bush White House. Even when practical political affairs have demanded that the Bush administration deal with the American Zionist lobby or the right-wing Shamir government of Israel, there has been a distinctive undertone of distrust bordering on overt hostility." Paul Goldstein and Jeffrey Steinberg, from: George Bush, Skull & Bones and the New World Order
"Professor Christopher Simpson, in his well-researched books: "Blow-Back:
America's Recruitment of Nazis &
Its Effects on the Cold War" and "The Splendid Blond Beast: Money,
Law & Genocide in the 20th Century"
details American interaction between high-level interests and Nazi
Germany before, during and after World War
II. In "Blow-Back" he speaks of U.S. Intelligence recruiting Nazi war
criminals in the Gestapo and scientists to
bring them into America. In "The Splendid Blond Beast" he tracks the

German industrialists who were Nazi war criminals." Emanuel

"On American soil, the CIA used Muslim charities and mosque communities as fronts for recruitment of fighters in their secret war against the USSR in the Hindu Kush. As Cooley writes in Unholy Wars : "One was [in] New York's Arab district, in Brooklyn along Atlantic Avenue... Another was a private rifle club in an affluent community of Connecticut." Giles Foden, from "Blowback chronicles"
"Coincidentally, on the front page of the NEW YORK TIMES, Sunday 2/13/2000,
there is an exposé of a C.I.A.
operation with the usual cover-up by the State Department. In 1973
the C.I.A. conspired in the murders of two
Americans while it, the C.I.A., was aiding the forces of Gen. Augusto
Pinochet in the overthrow of Chile's
President Salvador Allende. The C.I.A. sold weapons to Pinochet's militias
and destabilized the Allende
government - giving the Pinochet secret services lists of suspected
leftists to be rounded up in the first days of a
military takeover. That story parallels the C.I.A.'s adversarial role
against Israel as the C.I.A. trains the PLO terrorists (now called policemen)
while subverting Israel's resistance to dismemberment. What is happening
now is not new, it's just that these black C.I.A. operations have begun
to appear on the front page of the NEW YORK TIMES - not because the NYT
is against the State Department or C.I.A. but because the story is too
sensational and too big a scoop not to print." Emanuel
A. Winston, from "The Jew Room"
"In his travels, Maxwell had also met William Casey and judged the CIA director as a man of narrow opinions and no friend of Israel...Nowhere, in Maxwell's view, was this more evident than in the way Casey had misread Arab intentions in the Middle East." Gordon Thomas, from Seeds of Fire
"Israel will spiral down on the U.S. chart of interest to the point where the Arabists at the State Department can move toward her dissolution. Are American Jews distrustful of Assad, Arafat, Saddam? You bet. Are the Arabists at State and in Intelligence running covert anti-Israel programs? You bet. Will they make every effort to keep this anti-Semitic, anti-Israel operation under wraps? You bet. So, if profiling American Jews is the plan to keep them from 'seeing' covert adversarial operations targeting Israel, they will continue to operate their Jew Room. Maybe, just maybe we will get a President and an enlightened Congress who will terminate this ugly un-American process. Some may think it strange that the Jewish minority who has contributed so massively to the well-being ofAmerica should be under suspicion by the same organizations who assisted Saddam Hussein to acquire catastrophic weapons." Emanuel A. Winston, from "The Jew Room"
Israel and Level Battlefied Doctrine
" William Northrup, a former special operations officer in Viet Nam and CIA contract agent believes the real reason Pollard is being held is because he uncovered a secret United States operation called the “Level Battlefield Doctrine.” To Northrup, the term “level battlefield” remains a benign epithet masking the policy’s truest intentions. The name is akin, Northrup said, to the term “incident at altitude” used to describe a crowded jetliner blowing up in mid-air. The Level Battlefield Doctrine’s ramifications are anything but benign. However, it has become the basis of American Middle Eastern policy, all be it, a secret one. The Level Battlefield Doctrine states that Israel is responsible for the tensions that exist in the Middle East. Under this policy, the United States has developed a “back door” relationship with middle eastern countries supplying them with weapons in return for oil.
In 1983 Israel and the United States signed a Mutual Exchange of Information Agreement. While withholding intelligence from Israel, Northrop points out, the United States shockingly provided detailed intelligence assessments of the Israeli Defense force to Saudi Arabia. The Saudis then passed this information on to the Syrians and the Iraqis who were both clients of the Soviet Union. This provided a virtual windfall for Soviet military intelligence. Northrup also says that the United States routinely withheld information of impending terrorist actions from the Israelis while routinely passing the same kind of information on to the British, Spanish and Italian governments.
The tense relationship came to a head during the Reagan Administration after the United States had sold a battery of missiles to Saudi Arabia. Israel planned to attack and destroy the missiles before they became operational. Pollard says Pentagon sources held “off the record” meetings in which they pointed to several intercepted Israeli communications as proof positive that the Israeli government intended to launch an attack on the Saudi missile base before it achieved “operation status”.
The White House issued a warning to Israel stating that the United States would not tolerate an attack on a “loyal and valuable” ally. Saudi Arabia has oil. Israel does not.
If Pollard and Northrup are right, then Pollard is in prison because
he knows that the United States-Israeli friendship is based on a lie. If
Pollard discovered this, and if Israel knows that the United States, while
pretending to be a friend to Israel, is in fact making behind the scene
overtures to her enemies, then is
it any wonder that Israel would have planted a bug in the White House?
If Pollard knew that the United States routinely withholds important information
of terrorist attacks on Israeli citizens, then it is no wonder that Israel
and Pollard view the United States as the enemy." RUMOR
MILL NEWS, from "U.S. ANTI-ISRAEL POLICY: "THE LEVEL BATTLEFIELD"
"The Arabs and their global sponsors received unprecedented concessions culminating in the de facto surrender by Israel of its already tiny air space, the Temple Mount and most of old Jerusalem. Powell ignored all these concessions and the opportunity to unequivocally excoriate or, at least, identify Yasir Arafat and his officers as the criminals they are. The fact that he did not do so indicates the seamless Council of Foreign Relations form of American foreign policy, especially in the Middle East. Like Madeline Albright and Bill Clinton and Baraq, too, Powell, James Baker and Bush Sr. (as well as most network news "anchors") are members of this group of world controllers. An independent Jewish State is grit in their machine. They intend to cripple or internationalize it, as the partitions of 1922, 1937 and 1947 indicated. So too showed the relentless diplomatic pressure and economic and military blackmail that followed the Israeli victories of 1956, 1967 and 1973. It was the same with the intifada that even as it was being defeated served as a "crisis" to help launch the 1991 Madrid talks that led to Oslo. That's where the Bush-Powell part of the tag team picks up from their de facto partners in the Clinton administration. After he had equated the Israelis and Palestinians, Powell announced that the focus would become American-led efforts to broker an "agreement with Syria." Translated into English, this means that Israel will be pressured to surrender the Golan Heights, the goal Rabin was selected to in 1991-2 to achieve. Rabin was elected by promising to effectively limit (or shut down) the "Palestinian track:" no negotiation on Jerusalem, no surrender of the Jordan Valley, no negotiation with the PLO, no surrender of the Golan." The "four no's" were four lies, as the Clinton era made apparent, but betrayal of Israel by the big powers and by its own leftwing elite is par for the 20th century course.

Cosmological War by Land and Sea: Russia and the Order of Eurasia
"Russia always felt itself as an eurasian country." Valdimir Putin, President of the Russian Federation
"The new Eurasia movement brings under one political roof representatives
of all major religious confessions,
something that has not happened since Soviet times. More importantly,
it represents another effort to popularize
the concept of Eurasianism and make it into a national ideology for
post-Soviet Russia." Victor
Yasmann, from: "The Rise of the Eurasians"
"The Eurasia socio-political movement is financed and structurally
supported by Russian Federal Security
Service (FSB) and Russian Presidential Administration. Although
it is officially a "patriotic", "neo-eurasian", "anti-american" organization,
it serves the purpose of NWO and is paid by its emissaries in Russia
(basically,
it is a pro-NWO party which hides behind a pseudo-patriotic facade).
The official organizer is talented Russian geopolitician and political
philosopher Alexander Dugin. It seems they are trying to use Eskin
and his cohorts to "smooth" the relations between pro-Western Russian elite
(Putin, etc.), criminal oligarchs (Deripaska, Abramovich, Chubais,
etc.) with Israeli business elite and political circles. (It is known
that Eskin has connections with Israeli lobby in Washington, with
Republican Senator Jesse Helms, and with head of Committee on International
Relations of Russian State Duma Dmitrii Rogozin, and has been used to make
contact between Russian and American administrations.) from:

"The opposition of Order of Atlantic to Order of Eurasia through the centuries and millennia, being vested in the the most various forms, is in a sense the major conspirological content of history, the history of great planetary passions, history of peoples and religions, races and traditions, spirit and flesh, war and peace. In the confrontation between two Orders one must not see the simplified moralistic image of the fight between Good and Evil, Truth and Lie, Angels and Demons, and so on. This fight of two opposite types of world-view, two metaphysical pictures of Life, two paths to the cosmos and through the cosmos, two great Principles, not only opposing each other, but also indispensable to each other - since on this pair all cosmogonic and cosmological process, all cyclical course of human history is based." Alexander Dugin, from: "Great War of Continents - Part II"
"The New World Order will consolidate Anglo American elite control of the world. Its social and economic agenda includes the promotion of homosexuality and feminism, the continued destruction of the nuclear family, abortion and depopulation, deindustrialization, elite monopoly of resources, middle class decline, and ever-greater disparities between rich and poor." Henry Makow, Ph.D.from "The Elite Endgame: Oil = Extortion = New World Order
"The order of Eurasia, Order of the Male Principle, Sun, Hierarchy, is the projection of the Mount, Apollon, Ormudz, Solar Christ-in-Glory, Christ-pantocrator. Eurasia as the Earth of East is the Earth of Light, Earth of Paradise, Earth of Empire. The Earth of Hope. The Earth of the Pole. The order of the Atlantic, Order of the Female Principle, Moon, Orgiastic Equality is the projection of the Egyptian Seth, Python, Ahriman, Christ Suffering, Human, immersed in the metaphysical despair of the lonely Getsemane prayer. The Atlantic, Atlantis as the Earth of the West, is the Earth of the Night, the Earth of the “pit of exile” (as an islamic sufi said), Centre of Planetary Skepticism, Earth of the Great Metaphysical Spleen." Alexander Dugin, from: "Great War of Continents - Part II"
"Both Orders have the deepest ontological and sacred roots, and have the metaphysical reasons to be what they are. To consider any of these Orders as an historical accident means to deny to the secret logics of human and cosmic cycles. The choice of a geopolitical path mirrors the choice of a metaphysical path, esoterical path, the path of the Spirit across the universe. Therefore any warranties do not exist, therefore it is impossible, strictly speaking, to affirm that Eurasia is good and Atlantic is bad, that Rome is saint and Carthago is wicked, nor the contrary. But everyone called by the Order should commit a resolute step and serve the Order. The laws of our world are such that the outcome of the Great Battle is not predetermined, the outcome of the drama “Eurasia against Atlantis” depends on the totality of planetary solidarity of all those called on to serve, all the soldier of geopolitics, all the secret agents of Land and the secret agents of Sea. The outcome of the cosmological war of Apollon with the Snake Python depends on each of us, whether we understand it or not. Alexander Dugin, from: "Great War of Continents - Part II"
"The son of a KGB officer and knowledgeable in many languages, Dugin
was trained as a historian. He began
his public career in the early 1980s as an activist in Dmitry Vasiliyev’s
rabidly anti-Semitic Pamyat organization.
Later, Dugin joined forces with Eduard Limonov to form a group called
Conservative Revolution. A decade ago,
they translated into Russian and popularized the ideas of many German
and Italian fascists, but the two had a
falling out, and Dugin turned toward Eurasianism, an idea that attracted
solid financial support and which
enabled him to publish his works on geopolitics. Dugin updated Eurasianism
by dropping its initial postulate about the eternal hostility of Russia
and the West as a whole. Instead, he spoke about the concentration of what
he called "the world evil" in the naval powers of the West, Great Britain,
and the United States. And he argued that Russia should form an alliance
with Europe against those Atlantic powers, not only for ideological but
also for geoeconomic dominance." Victor

This is of course the heart of the matter in the New Great Game - compared to which the original 19th-century Great Game between czarist Russia and the British Empire was a childish tin soldier's diversion."
