More evidence we live in a Fascist State
There's been a lot of Internet buzz about this article at the Progressive. It seems there's a program called "InfraGard" that is preparing corporations for Martial Law. Here's a quote from a business owner who attended an InfraGard meeting:
“Then they said when—not if—martial law is declared, it was our responsibility to protect our portion of the infrastructure, and if we had to use deadly force to protect it, we couldn’t be prosecuted."
It says in the article that corporations are more privy to our government intelligence than our elected officials are. This should remove all doubt as to who really runs America. Is it We the People? No. It's the corporations.
It's private corporations that count the vote that decides who our "elected officials" are even going to be! That is, if they don't already have that in the bag by buying off said officals with campaign contributions, or buying the public's loyalty with controlled media and the latest PR/commercial manipulation.
Here's a quote often attributed to Benito Mussolini: "Fascism should rightly be called Corporatism as it is a merge of state and corporate power." Whether or not you agree with this statement, it should be clear we are reverting from a society where power and resourses are being stolen from the many and given to the very few. This is intolerable. Too many people have fought and died for the principles behind the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution to let them be desecrated this way.
Mrs. Powel -- "Well Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?"
Ben Franklin -- "A republic, if you can keep it."

Okay, what the hell kind of "intelligence"
do you get from people who have been locked up in a secret location, with no access to a lawyer (or anyone else for that matter) for 6 years?
US admiral confirms secret camp at GitmoI have some guesses. You wouldn't get any kind of relevant military intelligence, but you might well get a lot of psychological intelligence, as in these guys are being used as human guinea pigs for God knows what awful kind of purpose.
Here's a year-old article by Naomi Klein that speaks of what I mean:
The US psychological torture system is finally on trial
Note: since then, Jose Padilla was sentenced to 17 years in prison on charges different from the ones he was actually imprisoned and tortured for.

Worrisome developments in the Middle East
In light of multiple cut Internet cable lines in the Middle East (5 so far) and the Iranian Oil Bourse that was scheduled to be inaugurated this week [ http://www.energybulletin.net/39844.html ], I thought I'd post this link:

It's a compilation of some of my old radio scripts. Check out the script on Dollar Hegemony.

Montel Williams speaks the truth on FOX News
... and he loses his job a few days later.
Thank you for speaking your heart and telling the truth, Montel. Some things are more important than swallowing your integrity and whoring one's image on TV for money and corporate approval.

"Mental conditioning" through electromagnetism
A lot of people automatically turn off when they hear about experiments in "mind control." Personally, I'm turned off by that phrase myself because "mind conditioning" is a better description. "Mind control" implies that people don't have free will, when obviously they do. But lack of awareness prevents them from having a fair shot of exercising it.
The idea behind using wave technology to affect people's mood, cognative ability, etc. is actually pretty straightforward. Most of us know that brainwave frequency changes with our level of alertness -- beta brainwaves (a faster wave) are associated with a highly alert mental state, whereas alpha brainwaves (a lower frequency) are associated with daydreaming, hypnosis, etc. Theta and delta brainwaves are often asscociated with sleep or deep meditation.
The concepts of entrainment and resonance have been understood for centuries. We know that generally, things tend to fall into rhythm with each other. If you stand two grandfather clocks against the same wall, for example, the rhythm of their pendulums will soon become synchronized. So people have asked the question: what if you beam strong electromagnetic waves at someone? Can you change their brain frequency? It turns out that you can.
Allow me to further speculate: if you can shift a brain to a frequency specific to a hypnotic state and had some way to constantly broadcast subliminal affirmations (or dis-affirmations) to a person (or people, you could theoretically broadcast these waves over a large area) could you affect that person's/people's behavior? If you think not, I'd wager you haven't done much study in psychology and marketing. Subliminal messages work. And the technology to broadcast them currently exists.
Now, would you call this "mind control?" I wouldn't, any more than I'd call hypnotism "mind control." But there's a big difference here -- generally, when someone is being hypnotized they are well aware of it and willingly submit to it. To hypnotize people without their knowledge and consent is obviously dangerous and highly unethical. If we aren't aware of the potential of this technology, how can we legislate against its abuse?
Currently various military organizations are scrambling to use the directed wave energy concept as both a weapon and tool for social control. This is an open secret -- do the research if you don't believe me. But the mainstream press absolutely will not talk about the fact that it is in operational use. I know it is because it has been used on me.
Just as with new breakthroughs in biotechnology, awareness is the key for transforming what is being used destructively into something that can be used to better all of our lives.
