Understanding Jurisdiction

In all of history there has been but one successful protest against an income tax. It is little understood in that light, primarily because the remnants of protest groups still exist, but no longer wish to appear to be "anti-government." They don't talk much about these roots. Few even know them. We need to go back in time about 400 years to find this success. It succeeded only because the term "jurisdiction" was still well understood at that time as meaning "oath spoken." "Juris," in the original Latin meaning, is "oath." "Diction" as everyone knows, means "spoken." The protest obviously didn't happen here. It ...
The Grand Old Man of Navigation

If the captain of the ships in which Saint Paul was wrecked on Malta had come back to earth in 1730 he would have felt very much at home. Navigation methods would have scarcely changed in 1650 years. Had he come back half a century later, however, the art and science of navigation would have changed out of all recognition. The marine sextant, unchanged in its essentials today, was demonstrated in 1731. Just two centuries ago the Nautical Almanac was first published, giving sea captains the means, together with their sextants, of doing serious celestial navigation. By 1770 the Harrison chronometer was in use. In the first third of the 19th century the Sumner method of plotting celestial ...
Lot and his daughters

In Gen. 19, when God decided to overturn and destroy the five cities of the plain, he sent angels to rescue Lot and his family. The men of Sodom sought to meet (in some translations, rape) the angels (19:5). Lot offers the men his daughters instead, whom he says are virgins (19:8), but the men were not interested. Consequently, an Arabic expression for homosexuals is derived from the name for the people of Lot or Lut(in Arabic).i.e., Luti. When the sins of the Sodomites and of the neighboring cities had called down the vengeance of God to punish and destroy them, two angels were sent to Sodom to forewarn Lot of the dreadful catastrophe about to happen. The angels took Lot, his wife Irit, ...

We mustn't forget that some of greatest murderers of modern times were Jewish Published: 12.21.06, 23:35 / Israel Opinion Here's a particularly forlorn historical date: Almost 90 years ago, between the 19th and 20th of December 1917, in the midst of the Bolshevik revolution and civil war, Lenin signed a decree calling for the establishment of The All-Russian Extraordinary Commission for Combating Counter-Revolution and Sabotage, also known as Cheka. Within a short period of time, Cheka became the largest and cruelest state security organization. Its organizational structure was changed every few years, as were its names: From Cheka to GPU, later to NKVD, and later to KGB. We ...
Confederate heritage nothing to celebrate [Full Thread]

I'm getting tired of revisionist twaddle from the Sons of Confederate Veterans ("Hopkins intolerant of traditional values," letters, Dec. 5). There was nothing noble or honorable about fighting for the Confederacy. This was a league of traitors who precipitated a war that led to the deaths of more than 600,000 Americans. Should anyone doubt that the war was fought over the practice of human slavery, I suggest they read the secession declarations of the various Confederate state legislatures. After their disgraceful rebellion was crushed, many of these Southern "gentlemen" engaged in a war of terror to prevent their former slaves from enjoying the rights they were ...
Excerpt: Conversion of Governments into Dictatorships (1946)

...To describe the situation very briefly: In addition to the recognised Great Powers in the world—let us say, the Big Three—there is a fourth. The fourth Great Power is the Jewish nation, which, because it has no fixed geographical State, is overlooked as such. Nevertheless, it has a Government, which is largely secret, and that Government has a policy. The policy is derived from the mystic philosophy of the Jews—the belief that they are the Chosen People, with a mission to organise and govern the other peoples of the world. Now, since this Power has no country, and no army, its foreign policy must be pursued by other than the methods of direct armed conquest. Its most ...
Pearl Harbor: Hawaii Was Surprised; FDR Was Not

On Sunday, December 7, 1941, Japan launched a sneak attack on the U.S. Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor, shattering the peace of a beautiful Hawaiian morning and leaving much of the fleet broken and burning. The destruction and death that the Japanese military visited upon Pearl Harbor that day — 18 naval vessels (including eight battleships) sunk or heavily damaged, 188 planes destroyed, over 2,000 servicemen killed — were exacerbated by the fact that American commanders in Hawaii were caught by surprise. But that was not the case in Washington. Comprehensive research has not only shown Washington knew in advance of the attack, but deliberately withheld its foreknowledge from our ...
The Scottish Enlightenment

The Scottish Enlightenment was the period in 18th century Scotland characterised by an outpouring of intellectual and scientific accomplishments. By 1750, Scots were amongst the most literate nations of Europe, with an estimated 75% level of literacy.[1] Sharing the humanist and rationalist outlook of the European Enlightenment of the same time period, the thinkers of the Scottish Enlightenment asserted the fundamental importance of human reason combined with a rejection of any authority which could not be justified by reason. They held to an optimistic belief in the ability of man to effect changes for the better in society and nature, guided only by reason. It was this latter feature ...
Hitler was the perfect boss: Former maid breaks her silence on the 'charming' dictator

History has condemned him as the megalomaniac who brought death and misery to millions. But for one woman, the name Adolf Hitler evokes a smile not a shudder. She is Rosa Mitterer, who worked as a maid for the Fuhrer at his mountain retreat in Bavaria in the 1930s. Rosa is 91 and until now has kept a vow of silence about her experiences. She has chosen to break it after realising she is the last survivor of the circle who served the tyrant in the years before he launched the Second World War. And her verdict on her former master: 'He was a charming man, someone who was only ever nice to me, a great boss to work for. You can say what you like, but he was a good man to us.' ...
A Caveat Against Injustice: An inquiry into the evils of a fluctuating medium of exchange
Post Date: 2008-12-05 17:34:48 by bluegrass

Forasmuch, as there have been many disputes arisen of late concerning the medium of exchange in this colony, which have been occasioned chiefly by reason of our having such large quantities of paper Bills of Credit on some of the neighboring governments passing in payments among us, and some of those governments having issued much larger sums of Bills than were necessary to supply themselves with a competent medium of exchange, and not having supplied their treasuries with any fund for maintaining the credit of such Bills; they have therefore been continually depreciating and growing less in their value, and have been the principal means of the depreciation of the Bills of Credit emitted by ...

"A tradition of infanticide and abandonment, especially of females, existed in China before the foundation of the People's Republic in 1949," note Zeng et al.. ("Causes and Implications," p. 294.) According to Ansley J. Coale and Judith Banister, "A missionary (and naturalist) observer in [China in] the late nineteenth century interviewed 40 women over age 50 who reported having borne 183 sons and 175 daughters, of whom 126 sons but only 53 daughters survived to age 10; by their account, the women had destroyed 78 of their daughters." (Coale and Banister, "Five Decades of Missing Females in China," Demography, 31: 3 [August 1994], p. 472.) ...

In October 1944, at age eighteen, I was drafted into the U.S. army. Largely because of the “Battle of the Bulge,” my training was cut short, my furlough was halved, and I was sent overseas immediately. Upon arrival in Le Havre, France, we were quickly loaded into box cars and shipped to the front. When we got there, I was suffering increasingly severe symptoms of mononucleosis, and was sent to a hospital in Belgium. Since mononucleosis was then known as the "kissing disease," I mailed a letter of thanks to my girlfriend. By the time I left the hospital, the outfit I had trained with in Spartanburg, South Carolina, was deep inside Germany, so, despite my protests, I was ...

The origin of the human races

The Editor Dear Sir, Why are there different races? Is it because of the tower of Babel when the different languages originated? Or is it as I am told in school text books that man adapted to his environment by changing his skin color? Yours sincerely, Dale Higgins Mendooran, N.S.W. Dear Dale, Hope the following information helps you and all our readers. Thanks for the suggestion. Editor The origin of the human races A human race is defined as a group of people with certain common inherited features that distinguish them from other groups of people. All men of whatever race are currently classified by the anthropologist or biologist as belonging to the one species, Homo sapiens. This ...

First Bush-Obama Meeting: Hard Feelings and Hand Sanitizer As President Bush and President-elect Barack Obama prepare for their post-election meeting at the White House on Monday, memories of their first encounter linger. President Bush and President-elect Barack Obama are probably hoping their meeting Monday goes better than their first get-together, which left a bad taste in the mouths of both men. Four years ago, Obama and other newly elected members of the Senate were invited to the White House for a breakfast meeting with Bush, who pulled the young Chicagoan aside. "Obama!" Bush exclaimed, according to Obama's account of the meeting in his second memoir, "The ...
Brzezinski confirms that the United States can organise attacks in their own territory

With the exception of Washington Note and Financial Times, the mainstream media decided not to report Zbigniew Brzezinski’s comments that shatter the United Stator ruling class. Auditioned on February 1st, 2007 by the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, the former National Security Adviser read a statement the terms of which had been carefully chosen. He indicated that : " a plausible scenario for a military collision with Iran involves Iraqi failure to meet the benchmarks, followed by accusations of Iranian responsibility for the failure, then by some provocation in Iraq or a terrorist act in the US blamed on Iran, culminating in a ‘defensive’ US military action ...

I am indeed grateful to Iain A D Mann for his kind words (Letters, October 28), and for elaborating on Thomas Jefferson's sage words concerning banking and its threat to liberty. Mr Mann will no doubt be aware that Jefferson's sentiments were widely shared by his fellow founding fathers and subsequent Presidents (not all of them early), and that the American Revolution was as much about shaking off the tyranny of English fractional reserve banking as it was about taxation without representation (they are but two heads of the same serpent) - a historical fact largely omitted from contemporary history books. Until J P Morgan, champion of Wall Street's old-world bankers, and the ...

video.google.com/videosea...+Griggs+&emb=1&aq=-1&oq=# Kay Griggs, wife of colonel George Griggs, USMC (retired USMC Commandant): 29th Commandant of the Marine Corps, found her husband's diary, which contains details of homosexual blackmail in the top ranks of the US Marine Corps and names leading politicians and military leaders. Kay Griggs's information about the US government also comes from observations and people she met. She exposes initiation rituals, the raping of young men and blackmail and murders to keep people quiet. Much of this, according to Griggs, is related to secret society activity and she names figures like Henry Kissinger and a string of other top ...

Studs Terkel: The Passing of An Icon - by Stephen Lendman Despite his advanced age, the news came as a shock. An era had passed. On October 31, author, activist, actor, broadcaster, and mensch for all seasons Louis "Studs" Terkel died peacefully at his Chicago North Side home at age 96. Already weakened by other ailments, his health declined further from a fall in his home two weeks earlier. His son Dan paid tribute to his father. He "led a long, full, eventful, sometimes tempestuous, but very satisfying life." He was the master of oral history. Calvin Trillin called him "America's pre-eminent listener" that was "all the more remarkable when you ...
