Painfully Following Iran in the U.S. Media
Must Read - Quote of the Day...."I have no doubt that any impartial assessment of the professional conduct of most American media in covering the Iran situation would find it deeply flawed and highly opinionated, to the point where I say that mainstream media coverage of Iran in the United States is professionally criminal...."  --  *Rami G.

Syria did re-take 30% of the Golan Heights in the Yom Kippur war that was under the direction of Assad’s father [during] his 3 year in office. And Again the UK France and America all backed Israel. The annexing was in 1981 many other things happening those years like the Iran Iraq War the post Iranian revolution, Reagan /Bush Sr in the White House etc. Assad became president in 2000 WAY after these problems like Golan had been established.. more http://original.antiwar.com/justin/20… Think fighting Assad can be anti-Israel too just cause you want it to be? You’re a pawn you’re following Israel policy papers which even stated that they could get a bunch of you pawns to act exactly how you’re acting."

The CIA, Qatar, and the Creation of Jabhat al Nusra - posted at ICH
A quote..."May 17, 2013 "Information Clearing House"  A recent interview given by, yes, you guessed it: an ‘anonymous’ Qatari security official, has shed further light on CIA-led covert arms shipments to militants fighting in Syria. In this Reuters article, the security official and several ‘anonymous’ rebel Commanders confirm that Qatar has “tightened coordination of arms flows [plural] to Syria,” under alleged concern of weapons ending up in the hands of Al Qaeda linked Islamic extremist militants; the very militants as noted previously, that have continually formed the spearhead of the insurgency against the Syrian Government: (my emphasis)"

Putin v. Obama et al
A quote...." Throughout the Syrian conflict, Russia's forthrightly supported a diplomatic solution. It backs the Syrian people's right to choose who'll lead them. It does so responsibly. - Obama et al demand regime change. Assad must go is repeated. No nation has the right to interfere in the internal affairs of others. Washington does so repeatedly. - Obama's waging proxy war on Syria. He's doing so lawlessly. He and Turkey's Erdogan met in Washington. Both leaders are war criminals."

Obama Supported CIA & al-Qa’ida Mercenaries Execute Syrian Civilians
A quote...."Extreme violence is now permitted on YouTube of CIA & al-Qa’ida Mercenaries Executing Syrian Civilians in a calculated US Government Operation meant to generate support for the Syrian invasion that the Obama Administration has been so eager to initiate. Although no evidence exists as to the identity of these mercenaries, its plain to anyone understanding the strategy of those in power that these executions would not be tolerated to be on YouTube, unless these were Google & YouTube supported channels, under the direction of the US Government."

It's designed to create terror in Syria, and other nation states who resist the US Dollar (the private, foreign owned, banking cartel federal reserve's script) and Israel's hegemonic ambitions in the Middle East.  Terrorism pure and simple. - mpg

Syria: The Turning International Tide
A quote...."There is a change in the global political position towards Syria. Here are three recent indicators. Via FLC we learn of a significant position change in Tunisia...."

"Tunisia wants to reopen its embassy in Syria which has been closed for more than two years and has sent a request in this vein to the government in Damascus. Tunis is yet to receive a reply from Syria’s foreign ministry and a diplomatic source said that the letter has been sent to the foreign ministry since “last week.” - "Tunisia quickly closed its embassy when the uprising against the Assad regime began in 2011. It will become the first country to reopen its diplomatic office in Syria if its request receives a positive response from the foreign ministry."

"Tunisia is especially significant as it is part of the Arab League and its government is led by the Ennahda party which is ideological affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood. Tunisia is threatened by the Ansar al-Sharia Salafist movement, some of who's supporters are fighting on the Syrian insurgency side, and the Ennahda government recently moved against that group."

The Korean Atrocity: Forgotten US War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity
A quote...."After the Communists took control of China in 1949 the US tried to encircle the country. They supported Chiang Kai-shek in Taiwan, built military bases in Japan and backed a right-wing dictator in Thailand. One of Washington’s early objectives in Vietnam was to “establish a pro-Western state on China’s southern periphery.” The success of China’s nationalist revolution also spurred the 1950-53 Korean War in which eight Canadian warships and 27,000 Canadian troops participated. The war left as many as four million dead."

This war is not a means to any end but rather is the end in itself. Not only is it the end itself, but it is also its own fuel: it is precisely this endless war - justified in the name of stopping the threat of terrorism - that is the single greatest cause of that threat."

Military Tries to Take More Power Away from Civilian Leadership

US Suspends Constitution in Permanent World War on Terror
A quote...."Two disturbing developments have occurred in the last couple of days that have gone relatively unnoticed compared to the recent IRS, AP, and Benghazi scandals. -- First, the senate is debating an expansion of the already broad powers of the 2001 Authorization to Use Military Force (AUMF) so the U.S. can essentially engage any area in the world in the war on terror, including America. Which brings us to the second development: the Pentagon has recently granted itself police powers on American soil."

Homeland Defense: The Pentagon Declares War on America
A quote...."The Department of Defense now authorizes the domestic deployment of US troops  in “the conduct of operations other than war”  including law enforcement activities and the quelling of “civil disturbances”: “Federal military commanders have the authority, in extraordinary emergency circumstances where prior authorization by the President is impossible and duly constituted local authorities are unable to control the situation, to engage temporarily in activities that are necessary to quell large-scale, unexpected civil disturbances…“ - also posted at RINF

Military Says No Presidential Authorization Needed To Quell “Civil Disturbances”
A quote...."A recent Department of Defense instruction alters the US code applying to the military’s involvement in domestic law enforcement by allowing US troops to quell “civil disturbances” domestically without any Presidential authorization, greasing the skids for a de facto military coup in America along with the wholesale abolition of Posse Comitatus."

Obama's Multiplying IRS & AP "Gate" Fiascoes....And the Benghazi Cover-Up?

Is Obama the New Nixon?
A quote...."Without going over the edge to Rush Limbaugh territory, the internal spying on reporters and politicization of the IRS do raise the question. Could Obama be trumping “Tricky Dick” on the latter’s home turf? Few politicians can match Richard Milhous Nixon for obsession with leaks, propagation of secret wars and creation of a list of enemies."

Woodward: Don’t Let Government Dismiss Benghazi
Contains Video - Alt - A quote...."(MSNBC) – During an appearance on MSNBC’s Morning Joe today, Bob Woodward said the corporate media should not allow the government to underplay and divert attention away from the Benghazi terror attack. “If you read through all these e-mails, you see that everyone in the government is saying, ‘Oh, let’s not tell the public that terrorists were involved, people connected to al-Qaeda. Let’s not tell the public that there were warnings,” Woodward said."

Benghazi, Petraeus, and the CIA
A quote...."What Greg Hicks and Representative Darrell Issa did not probe was the role of the CIA and Petraeus in the use of Benghazi as the largest CIA station in North Africa, where they ran militias into Syria. When the information about the attack on the US ‘facility’ in Benghazi was first brought to light, there was confusion because this information had the potential of putting the vaunted military in its proper perspective. Was the space that was attacked a consulate, a State Department facility, a CIA safe house, or indeed a prison for captured militias?"

Infowars Exclusive: IRS Form Sent to Patriot Groups
A quote...."Although the corporate media has portrayed the intrusive IRS behavior as harassment, the content the government demanded the organizations turn over to the taxation agency to gain tax-exempt status reveals something far more ominous – the IRS was in the business of collecting sensitive political data on organizations ideologically opposed to the Obama administration."

Gonna Have To Face It, You’re Addicted To Zionism
Must Read - A quote...."It’s a general rule that people with addictions usually don’t keep their “issues” private. They’ve just GOT to be lettin’ it all hang out–LARGE AND IN CHARGE–and in your face. Whether it’s the economic problems they bring upon their families by losing job after job or pulverizing innocent people with their cars or the life of crime they eventually find themselves neck-deep in, addiction is seldom a victimless situation, despite what the victimizers themselves claim. It is a simple issue of gravity–Rather than pull themselves up to a higher level, they must instead drag everyone else down to theirs."

The "Holocaust", an alleged story of millions of Jews being tortured in concentration camps, has been proven time and time again to be inaccurate, For the acclaimed number of murdered Jews to be true is impossible, proven so not only by logic, but also the fact that the "survivors" of these evens have been known to and even admitted to being paid to lie about it.

All the big guns of the Russian mafia—Semion Mogilevich, Monya Elson, Marat Balagula, Vyacheslav Ivankov, Vladimir Ginsberg, Ludwig Fainberg—are Jewish." -- (a.k.a. Caucasoid Kazarians)

Eerily, Beamer's line remained open for 15 minutes after the crash. -- Oddly, the Verizon wireless record shows that 19 calls were made from Beamer's cell phone long after the crash of UA 93. -- Initial media reports and FBI interviews detailed more than a dozen cell phone calls from the planes at high elevation. -- Yet in 2001, a telephone spokesperson stated that sustained mobile calls were not possible above 10,000 feet."

“(CBS News senior correspondent John) Miller claims, without supplying ONE…SHRED OF EVIDENCE OR EVEN THE NAME OF THE ‘SOURCE’ OF THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev just happened to ‘FIND A PEN’ while hiding in the boat bleeding and then began to write the exact same things he supposedly said in the interview with the feds prior to being read his Miranda rights after his arrest. You know, the confession that will be inadmissible in court because it came prior to him being read his rights?  --  “Oh wait, he couldn’t have ‘said’ those things because his throat had been cut on the scene after his arrest….   “He never explains how come they failed to find this CONFESSION written in the tiny little boat as they were pouring over it looking for the guns he never had.

Fuller until 2004. Samantha’s father is Graham Fuller, the senior CIA person who was the architect the Afghan Islamic fundamentalist Mujahideen war against the Soviets. He is also involved in creating a global jihad network, presumably acting on behalf of CIA interests." - also posted at RINF

Terrorist Plots, Hatched by the F.B.I.

A would-be suicide bomber was intercepted on his way to the Capitol; a scheme to bomb synagogues and shoot Stinger missiles at military aircraft was developed by men in Newburgh, N.Y.; and a fanciful idea to fly explosive-laden model planes into the Pentagon and the Capitol was hatched in Massachusetts. -- But all these dramas were facilitated by the F.B.I., whose undercover agents and informers posed as terrorists offering a dummy missile, fake C-4 explosives, a disarmed suicide vest and rudimentary training. Suspects naïvely played their parts until they were arrested." - Topix  ||  The F.B.I.'s Constant Gardening  ||

Out of 166 inmates - 130 are on strike according to prisoners, while the military only admits to 102. At least a third of them are being force fed - a procedure recognized by various medical organizations as painful enough to constitute torture. And by all accounts - there's no end in sight to the protest. -- RT discusses the stand-off with former Guantanamo detainee Moazzam Begg, who's now the Director of the Cageprisoners activist group, Attorney Pardiss Kebriaei, the legal representative of 8 Guantanamo detainees, military attorney Lt.

Washington Signals Dollar Deep Concerns  - Paul Craig Robert's Donation Drive
Must Read - A quote...."Over the past month there has been a statistically improbable concurrence of events that can only be explained as a conspiracy to protect the dollar from the Federal Reserve’s policy of Quantitative Easing (QE). - Quantitative Easing is the term given to the Federal Reserve’s policy of printing 1,000 billion new dollars annually in order to finance the US budget deficit by purchasing US Treasury bonds and to keep the prices high of debt-related derivatives on the “banks too big to fail” (BTBF) balance sheets by purchasing mortgage-backed derivatives. Without QE, interest rates would be much higher, and values on the banks’ balance sheets would be much lower."

They discuss how it is that every benchmark index is rigged and introduce the concept of the 'bonus benchmark.' In the second half, Max talks to Dr. Michael Hudson, author of The Bubble and Beyond, about debt and wage deflation and about the intersection of interest rates and wages going back to David Ricardo when wages were measured against the price of bread to today when they are measured against the price of debt."

Why Bonds Aren't Dead & The Dollar Will Get Weaker
Charts - (click to enlarge) -- A quote...."There have been quite a few bold predictions, since the beginning of the year, that the dollar was set to soar and that the great "bond bull market" was dead.  The primary thesis behind these views was that the economy was set to strengthen and inflation would begin to seep its way back into the system.  Furthermore, the "Great Rotation" of bonds into stocks, on the back of said economic strength, would push interest rates substantially higher.  --  While I have no doubt that at some point down the road that inflation will become an issue, interest will rise and the dollar will strengthen - it just won't be anytime soon.  A wave of "disinflation" is currently engulfing the globe as the Eurozone economy slips back into recession, China is slowing down and the U.S. is grinding into much slower rates of growth.  Even Japan, despite their best efforts through a massive QE program, cannot seem to break the back of the deflationary pressures on their economy.  This is a problem that has yet to be recognized by the financial markets." - also posted at ZeroHedge

In the Time Between Crises
A quote...."The working premise of politicians and economists in the ‘developed’ world of the West is a basic economic stability has been achieved by way of the depth and breadth of the political-economic institutions created over the last 75 years. The storyline coming out of Washington, London and Brussels is of degrees of economic ‘recovery,’ if halting, from the Great Recession. But missing are the institutions on which stability was based. They were removed in recent decades in favor of ‘market’ based reforms. What remains are institutions—the political establishment and the Federal Reserve, that support and foster the worst excesses of unfettered capitalism. This suggests periods of economic ‘recovery’ are now whatever lies between the periodic crises endemic to capitalism."

Well....calling these recent cycles of massive financial over-leveraging and printing "capitalism" is slightly unfair.  When a few dozen financial institutions lose tens of trillions through malinvestment and corruption and then have a bunch of central banks they're affiliated with print up tens of trillions of dollars to paper over their mistakes....so they can make them again. That hardly meets the traditional definition of "capitalism" . - mpg

Charts - (click to enlarge) -- A quote...."Europe's non-performing loan problem is such an issue that there is increasing bluster that the ECB may take this garbage on to its balance sheet since policymakers realize that bad debts and non-performing loans (NPLs) reduce the capacity of banks to lend, hindering the monetary policy transmission mechanism. Bad debts consume capital and make banks more risk averse, especially with respect to lending to higher risk borrowers such as SMEs. With Italy (NPLs 13.4%) now following the same dismal trajectory of Spain's bad debts, the situation is rapidly escalating (at an average of around 2.5% increase per year)."

Chart - (click to view) -- A quote...."Inflation slowed in 24 (of 27) EU nations in April to leave the average EU rate at 1.4% (versus 1.9% in March). Greece entered deflation in March for the first time in 45 years and Latvia consumer prices fell 0.4% in April (versus +2.8% a year ago). This notable plunge, while 'helpful' for the average spender in the short-term, is a problem, as Bloomberg's Niraj Shah notes, sustained falling prices will increase the nation's debt burden. At the other end of the spectrum, Romania and Estonia both have inflation running above 4% and 3% respectively. Of course, none of this serial 'depression' matters, since Draghi has your back and Hollande says "the crisis is over.""

Global Government Debt Is Already 80% Of Global GDP
Chart - (click to view) -- A quote...."n his latest commentary, Michael Pento writes ”there is a reason why the Fed and other central banks have been unable to achieve a healthy and viable economy even after five years of trying to manufacture one from a printing press. The truth is an economy that is soaked in debt just doesn’t grow because it is always marked by at least one, if not all three, of the following growth-killing conditions; high interest rates, rampant inflation and onerous tax rates.”

Italy's New Government Approval Rating Plummets From 43% To 34% In Three Weeks, Protests Return

It may not last too long. As Reuters reports, it took just 20 days for Letta's approval rating to plunge by 25%, dropping from 43% at the start of the month to 34%, according to an SWG institute poll."

The Central Banks' Gold: a story of silent expropriation (II)
There are over thirty countries that supposedly keep their gold in the vaults of lower Manhattan at the privately owned banking cartel known as the Federal Reserve of New York....and it ain't there!! Period. - mpg -- A quote...."Erik Sprott, a billionaire and well-known investor with 35-years of experience working in financial markets and a great connoisseur of the intricacies of the gold trade, believes that official statistics clearly do not fully take into account the actual demand for gold on the world market (typically estimated to be between 4,000 and 4,500 tonnes per year). According to his calculations, the actual demand for this precious metal over the last decade was an average of 2,300 tonnes higher than the official figures cited by the World Gold Council and other reputable organisations8. The supply of gold through new mining operations and scrap gold is clearly not enough to cover the world's actual gold demand."

It’s Official: Gold is Now the Most Hated Asset Class
A quote...."Not a day passes without the financial media denouncing gold as an investment option and hailing the bureaucrats heading the world's monopolist monetary central planning agencies as superheroes. It began prior to gold's recent breakdown, with widely cited bearish reports on gold published by Credit Suisse and Goldman Sachs, among others. Never mind that most of their arguments were easily unmasked as spurious. It should be no wonder though: gold's rise was the most conspicuous evidence of faith in central banking being slowly but surely undermined. The banking cartel relies on the fiat money system remaining intact; the legal privilege of fractional reserve banking provides it with what is an essentially fraudulent profit center unparalleled by any other in the world (fraudulent in terms of traditional legal principles, but not in terms of the current law of course). Not surprisingly, ever since the completely unrestrained fiat money system became operational in the early 1970s, the financial sector's share of corporate profits has inexorably risen and finally eclipsed all other sectors of the economy."

His regime has certainly suffered many setbacks during the brutal civil war that shows no signs of ending, but it's clear right now that Assad and his followers have been gaining momentum. - The most recent example came just a few days ago, when Syrian forces took control of a town near the highway that links Damascus to neighboring Jordan. After battles with the opposition, government troops reopened the roadway near Khirbet Ghazaleh. - Re-establishing control means Syrian soldiers are in a better position now to block the transfer of arms from Jordan, bound for opposition fighters." - Source:  CBC

Chris Hedges: Murder Is Our National Sport

We murder thousands more from the skies over Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen with our pilotless drones. We murder each other with reckless abandon. And, as if we were not drenched in enough human blood, we murder prisoners—most of them poor people of color who have been locked up for more than a decade. The United States believes in regeneration through violence. We have carried out blood baths on foreign soil and on our own land for generations in the vain quest of a better world. And the worse it gets, the deeper our empire sinks under the weight of its own decay and depravity, the more we kill."

But its financial support for the revolution that has turned into a vicious civil war dramatically overshadows western backing for the opposition."

Obama's Multiplying IRS & AP "Gate" Fiascoes....And the Benghazi Cover-Up?

The AP Scandal Shows That the Obama Administration Is Going Rogue
A quote...."The Obama administration is mired in a fresh scandal of its own making. The revelation that the Justice Department has been snooping into the phone records of Associated Press reporters and editors indicates that the administration's ruthlessness when it comes to trying to protect its reputation and sources knows no bounds. Attorney General Eric Holder, always a poor choice for a cabinet post, should resign.

The Mavi Marmara Murders
Erdogan the Betrayer - A quote...."Part of the Turkish state was insistent on giving the Mavi Marmara no protection. You have to ask the question, did these people know in advance the Mavi Marmara was to be attacked? The fatal shootings on board were mostly not random - they were targeted shots to the head of selected people. If Israel had planned this, how long in advance, where did they get their intelligence on who was aboard? If they had assistance from within the Turkish state, of course the Turkish state would want to ensure they did not have legal responsibility over the killings."

He's a traitor, to Turkey and all its people.  To Islam by joining with the Saudi Parasitic Family to spread its violent, virulent, vicious, sick, evil, Wahhabist-Cult terrorism throughout the Middle East.

The seizure of Palestine can be considered as one of the greatest acts of theft in the history of mankind. Israel itself therefore is a gigantic war crime and a crime against humanity. - Thanks to the infamous Balfour declaration of 1917, Palestine, an Arab country since the seventh century, was given by another country (Britain) to a third people (the Jews) without even consulting the native people of the country."

It's even mentioned in Israel's national anthem and its Declaration of Independence. But what if the exile never actually happened? This documentary by Ilan Ziv invites us to review and rethink our ideas around the exile, raising important ethical questions about its impact on present-day Middle Eastern issues along the way." - See also...."The Exiling of My Film, "Exile A Myth Unearthed", by the BBC"

The Major Sea Change in Media Discussions of Obama and Civil Liberties - posted at ICH
A quote...."May 15, 2013 "Information Clearing House" -"The Guardian"-  Due to the controversies over the IRS and (especially) the DOJ's attack on AP's news gathering process, media outlets have suddenly decided that President Obama has a very poor record on civil liberties, transparency, press freedoms, and a whole variety of other issues on which he based his first campaign. The first two paragraphs of this Washington Post article from yesterday, expressed in tones of recent epiphany, made me laugh audibly....:"

"President Obama, a former constitutional law lecturer who came to office pledging renewed respect for civil liberties, is today running an administration at odds with his résumé and preelection promises. - "The Justice Department's collection of journalists' phone records and the Internal Revenue Service's targeting of conservative groups have challenged Obama's credibility as a champion of civil liberties - and as a president who would heal the country from damage done by his predecessor."

Their Attempts Will Wither Away - It is Only A Matter of Time

Homosexual Activist Admits True Purpose of Battle is to Destroy Marriage
A quote...."For quite some time, the defenders of natural marriage have attempted to point out that the true agenda behind the homosexual demands organizations is not marriage equality; it is the total unraveling of marriage and uprooting traditional values from society.  (This will ultimately include efforts to silence and punish some churches that openly adhere to their religious teachings about marriage and sexual morality.)" - bold/underline by website editor

Which is totally reasonable, natural and completely understandable.

All societies since the beginning of human history have modeled their cultures, laws and traditions on the four major life cycles, or changes, that occur in a person's life, which arise from natural procreation and natural bonding, social processes which in turn determine familial relationships (extended, or its less natural nuclear variant), child rearing, social support networks, and family inheritance... 

They've celebrated the Spring of Birth and Childhood, its wide-eyed newness, exploration, and learning, the Summer of Puberty, its fertility and identity, along with its beauty, youth, innocence and energy.  The Height of Mid-Summer, its rites of courtship and the expected bonding of Marriage for natural procreation, the creation of family, and inheritance.  The start of Late Summer along with the coming of Fall's twilight, as couples and extended family members grow old together while watching their progeny mature to forge families of their own. Finally, at the end, all societies have established traditions to mourn the passing of its members into the Winter of death and comfort those who remain behind.

All these traditions, ALL OF THEM, are utterly and totally anathema to those who ALWAYS appear after the peak and during the decline and decadent phases of the largest, most corrupt, Empires, Kingdoms or what were formally Republics.

The attitudes of rejection, of negation, of these traditions, specifically Marriage, by these groups cannot be otherwise since these groups were not, and COULD NOT EVER HAVE BEEN, included in these societal structures because they embrace the very antitheses of the fundamental nature of these structures, and the cultures, laws, and traditions that they are composed of.

A fundamental nature whose foundations reside deep in our genetic code and racial memory, back to the very beginnings of humanity's history, and whose four major life transitions are utterly dependent on the act of natural reproduction and natural pair bonding, or its less widespread plural variants.

These groups must, sooner or later, viscerally reject such traditions, no matter how strenuously and pathetically they try to emulate them or demand they be included.

Eventually, their attempts, along with what few "successes" they achieve, will wither away just as the utterly corrupt Empires that spawned the abhorrent open acceptance and codification of their behaviors will also whither away.

It is simply a matter of time. - mpg - for more on this issue see the essays shown below.....

U.S. Currently Fighting 74 Different Wars … That It Will Publicly Admit
A quote...."Since President Barack Obama has been willing to give the go ahead to operations that President George W. Bush would not have approved, operations have been much more aggressive and, presumably, JSOC has been able to fan out and work in way more countries than ever expected. -- Global assassinations have been embraced by the current administration, opening the door to night raids, drone strikes, missile attacks where cluster bombs are used, etc. Each of these operations, as witnessed or experienced by the civilian populations of countries, potentially inflame and increase the number of areas in the world where there are conflict zones. -- The world is literally a battlefield with conflicts being waged by the US (or with the “help” of the US). And, no country is off-limits to US military forces." - also posted at IntellHub

Israel’s Act of War Against Syria—Madness or Cold Calculation?
A quote...."The Israeli bombings come coincidentally at a time when direct reports from within Syria indicate major recent successes of the Syrian Army in rolling back rebel held areas along the border to Lebanon. Until Israel or Washington are able to produce overwhelming evidence to the contrary, the weight of suspicion for the Israeli acts of war has to be not interdiction of potential “game changer” missiles to Hezbollah, but rather an attempt by Israel, with Washington backing, to prepare the climate of world opinion for a full-scale Libya-style NATO-IDF air campaign to obliterate Syria, as more than two years of surrogate arming and training of mercenaries and even Al Qaeda terrorists to wage a regime destruction in Syria appear to have failed.."

Bishop Richard Williamson: “[opens] up about the controversy surrounding his holocaust comments”
Special Note - Quote of the Day...."Barrett asks if the holocaust religion, instead of embodying traditional religious characteristics such as humility and submission to God, is conversely characterized by “egocentric qualities and personal aggrandizement.” -- Williamson replies similarly to the account he wrote which was published in the Barnes Review The fourth German showtrial against Bishop Richard Williamson (2/13/13), in which he explained “Now not only does what is known as the “Holocaust” serve as the secular religion of the New World Order (Auschwitz replaces Calvary, the gas-chambers replace the Cross of Our Lord, and the Six Million play the part of the Redeemer), but also it seems to me that the post-World War II Germans have difficulty in respecting themselves unless they are beating their breast for the alleged crimes of the Third Reich.” -- “Holocaustianity is being almost designed to replace Christianity,” Williamson explains to Barrett, “and it’s been very cleverly done.”"
