Breaking news. Sleepless in Florida where I'm going to do an interview later today, I awoke to one of my news alerts on Javier Solana. He was first named and his and other names were later redacted in court documents as part of a proposed "Hapsburg group" paid a handsome sum of money to lobby on behalf of a former Ukraine government on behalf of Paul Yanukovych. Former European Commission head Romano Prodi was reportedly paid a handsome sum to organize a group of prominent European politicians to lobby on behalf of the Ukraine government of Yanukovych. The group of politicians was shorthanded as "The Hapsburg Group." The group of five included Javier Solana.
It is reported that Special counsel "accidentally included the names of witnesses in a court exhibit filing" in the motion to revoke the bond of Paul Manafort. The names "accidentally released" included "Javier Solana." The exhibit was later revised and redacted. I was able to find a copy, however, on line at this link, provided it is still there.

This is breaking news. I'm still not sure what the full significance is. I do find it interesting that the names were draped out and then suddenly redacted. I'm glad it made the news. It is still not clear from the postings I have found that Solana did participate -- but it is clear that somebody was paid handsome sums of money to recruit him and other prominent European Union politicians. $2.5 million dollars is a lot of money -- at least it is where I come from!
For what purpose? Stay tuned!

Well done.
This little group of five sure has their fingerprints on some big ticket items.
Things that make you go, hmmm......
What interest should they, this Hapsburg Group, have in this happenstance surrounding Paul Manafort, except to use their back-handed, back door, back-biting, resources to unseat a duly elected and sitting President who stands directly in the way of the global agenda they are feverishly working to establish?
One can still smell that pungent rat smell from anything and everything that involves and surrounds Javier Solana.

Tommy Robinson is in prison and this is why.

Anon 7:01,
Nice try. Though this reporter looks like he is being balanced, the segment is not balanced at all. For example, Robinson’s previous convictions and incarcerations were based upon trumped-up charges, and left him with no choice but to plead guilty and do time, rather than have the powers-that-be go after his family—which they threatened him with. Look up his interview with Lauren Southern. Southern herself was barred from entering the UK SOLELY because she came to interview Robinson. Why was that? (They interview was done later, outside the UK.) In that interview, Robinson goes into some detail regarding his previous arrests and harassment.
After Robinson’ contempt of court last year, he well-knew what he could and could not do. The bogus charges upon which he was initially brought in for—breaching the peace—was just a means by which to get him off the streets, jail him under false pretenses, then lock him up with other Muslims who wish him dead. If it’s true that he has now been transferred to a higher level prison—for more severe crimes—and that this prison has a higher percentage of Muslims, then I think one can read between the lines.
Channel 4 can claim it’s not a freedom of speech issue, and technically, based upon the purported charges, they are right, but we all know why he was jailed.
You see, Craig, I grew up with Muslims, and although I am against Islam itself as I am against all false religions, I know there are many loving people (good Samaritans if you will) who happen to be Muslim.
As a young boy (about 7 or 8 years old), I would often go to the house of a Muslim school friend of mine, Assad. I remember clearly sitting on his father's prayer mat (with his father there), which had the image I now know is of Mecca on it. I would sit on it with my friend as we held the corners of it and tried to take off and fly, imagining it was Aladdin's carpet. How did he 'punish' me for what some may see as 'inconsiderate insolence'? He fed me, made sure I was safe, treated me as though I were his own son and made sure I got home safely!
His father would laugh as any normal adult would. My mother, before becoming a doctor of theology, used to babysit the children of a Muslim family. Yes, the trusted my mother, a devout Christian to babysit their children.
I put it to you, Craig, that you fail to see the prospect of humanity (in as much as fallen human beings can muster it) because of your confusion between a religion (which has many strands and interpretations) with all people who profess adherence to that faith.
You are a bigot and are no different in spirit and mindset than the most zealous of promoters of Salafism and Wahhabism or the bigots who identify as Atheists, such as Richard Dawkins. You are a Pharisee and to that I say you are a viper. You are like a whitewashed tomb, which outwardly appears beautiful, but within is full of dead people’s bones and all uncleanness.
You should learn to love your neighbour as yourself.
Deuteronomy 10: 19 You shall love the stranger, for you were once strangers in the land of Egypt.
Leviticus 19:34 The alien who resides with you shall be to you as the citizen among you; you shall love the alien as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
Luke 10:27 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbour as yourself.
Matt. 5:43-44 You have heard that it was said, ‘you shall love your neighbour and hate your enemy’. But I say to you, love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you.
Romans 13:8 Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law.
Romans 13:10 Love does no wrong to a neighbour, therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
Romans 12:13 Contribute to the needs of the saints; extend hospitality to strangers.
Acts 10:34 Then Peter began to speak to them: “I truly understand that God shows no partiality, but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him.
Revelation 21:3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “See the home of God is among mortals. He will dwell with them as their God; they will be his peoples, and God himself will be with them.”
3 John 1:5 Beloved, you do faithfully whatever you do for the friends, even though they are strangers to you; they have testified to your love before the church. You do well to send them on in a manner worthy of God; for they began their journey for the sake of Christ, accepting no support from non-believers. Therefore we ought to support such people, so that they may become co-workers with the truth.
Hebrews 13: 1 Let mutual love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it.
Collossians 3:11 In that renewal there is no longer Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave and free; but Christ is all and in all.
Matthew 25: 35 I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.
Matt. 25:40 Truly I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of my brethren you did it to me.
Anon 9:20,
Typical. Typical name calling. Not all “Muslims” follow the tenets of theocratic Islam, just as not all “Christians” truly follow Christ. (And let’s not forget to factor in taqqiya.) Perhaps next you’ll call me “racist”? Do I suppose you agree when your press refers to certain perpetrators of crimes in the UK as “Asian”, rather than the Pakistani Muslims they are?
You wrote: Most Muslims are not radical Islamists, terrorists or child rapists. Have I stated that they were? Have I called for the mass deportation of all, or even most, Muslims from ANY country? In the past here I’ve posted videos of undercover reporters showing some UK mosques, ones funded by the Saudis, teaching radical elements of Islam. Those are the folks who should be jailed, deported, or what-have-you, as they hate the West and are doing their best to subvert it. Do you make excuses for this lot?
And, that is the sort of thing TR stands against. And I suppose you think the new Chancellor of Austria is wrong for closing radicalized mosques with ties to Turkey and deporting radical Imams?
You don’t know me at all. I believe in judging individuals as individuals—not as part of some particular group, as in “identity politics”. Perhaps you should do the same, and learn when conversations and positions stated are sufficiently nuanced.
And, just look what it took in the UK to declare Hezbollah the terrorist group it is, as it’s recognized by the rest of the civilized world, while your Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has continued to try to split hairs and declare it isn’t. Pathetic.
I have no idea what “CNP” is.
Anon 10:01,
I saw your comment as I was posting my response to your earlier comment. Interestingly, you continue to straw man me and my stance.
You wrote: …although I am against Islam itself as I am against all false religions, I know there are many loving people (good Samaritans if you will) who happen to be Muslim.
That could have been written by me! I don’t have a specific story as you do, but I DO know Muslims [and other non-Christians] who are very fine people (they own a number of restaurants in my area, e.g.). And, I’ve had religious discussions with one in particular.
You wrote: …you fail to see the prospect of humanity (in as much as fallen human beings can muster it) because of your confusion between a religion (which has many strands and interpretations) with all people who profess adherence to that faith.
Once again you write with no knowledge of who I am. Take it down a few notches.
Anon 9:20/10:01,
My last comment to you. I challenge you to find and then quote any comment from me suggesting the deportation of Muslims in a general sense—as opposed to radical Muslims—from your country (Great Britain, I presume) or ANY country. Since I know you cannot, perhaps you’ll openly apologize for your uncalled-for name calling, most especially @ 9:20.
I called you a fascist pig. By the way, the father of my friend of whom I spoke earlier was of Pakistani origin (you do know Pakistan is in Asia, don't you, Craig?). If you want to call yourself a racist then I say, given your recent comments... :
Craig said...
Erdoğan calls on Germany to ‘straighten out’ Austrian PM
The Turkish President said, “…We will not let our 250,000 brothers be oppressed there [in Austria]. We will do what is needed.”
The solution seems simple enough. Erdoğan can provide refuge to those ousted in his own country.
There. Fixed that. Next problem with non-assimilating, Western-hating “migrants”?
11:30 PM
If the cap fits, Craig, wear it!
I suggest you research what the CNP (Council for National Policy) is, of which the now deceased Stanley Monteith (Constance's long-term friend and collaborator) was a member:
https://www.google.com/search?ei=2SUjW7qAA-K20PEPorKdqAo&q=council+on+national+policy+stanley+monteith&oq=council+on+national+policy+stanley+monteith&gs_l=psy-ab.3...58836.65301.0.65676.17.17.0.0.0.0.359.2924.2-8j2.10.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..7.6.1704...0i22i30k1j33i22i29i30k1j33i21k1j33i160k1.0.BJemi9Kx7S8
So you wish to double down, do you? Once again, nuance is the key.
Yes, one can consider Pakistan as part of Asia, but you miss the point. With the media, and apparently the UK government, insisting on calling them the more general “Asian”, as opposed to the more specific “Pakistani”, it functions to whitewash. As you say, “if the cap fits”—so why not just identify them as Pakistani? Were any of these perpetrators Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, etc.? This is what most think of when they hear “Asian”.
You fail to understand that Austria is not ousting peaceful Muslims. The chancellor is ousting those, as I wrote and you quoted “non-assimilating, Western-hating ‘migrants’”. More importantly, you’ve claimed that I called for the deportation of Muslims from YOUR country. Or are you in Austria?
I think you may be blinded by PC-ness.
No offense, but I personally don't like to use exceptionally long links (for the reason that who knows where all they're routed through and monitored by on the way to get to the final destination) but here is Wikipedia on the CNP:

Dear Anon 9:20/10:01.
Craig's response was measured and simply speaking the truth to a problem as he sees it, and facts actually reinforce, as problematic.
Sorry to have to break it to you, but you are the one who is toxic here with your broad brush judgment.
That said, your over the top, knee jerk, hateful words (to make it personal when he said and did nothing worthy of your choosing to lash out in a personal attack) cannot be smoothed over by quoting scripture. You exhibited no grace whatsoever in being that extreme by going straight to rebuke when unwarranted. Ever hear of God's measured response to people "come let us reason together"? You should try that approach instead of the hypocritical way you reacted, because
"Hebrews 13: 1 Let mutual love continue" as you quoted, is nowhere to be found in the response you gave him.
You owe him an apology.
I can tell by the oft repeated buzz words that you use that you generally come out swinging.
Why so angry?
To Anonymous 9:20
I'm sorry that you feel this is a "fascist site." I can assure you that it is not and I am not. I'm not a Moslem basher. I know some who are. I have disagreed with many on that issue. The strategy of New Age schemers is to pit all "Peoples of the Book" (Jews, Christians, and Moslems off against each other, after first infiltrating as many in the 3 respective groups with mysticism and deep secularism. Then the strategy is "The massed forces of the Old Age, however, will be unable to check their
headlong onrush. In large measure they will go on to destroy each other in a
massive, mutual venting of long pent-up aggression" (Peter LeMesurier, THE ARMAGEDDON SCRIPT, page 237).
That is a script I would very much like to see thwarted and I do believe we slowed it down for 36 years now, since 1982 when they thought they would take over. Those forces who would pit us violently against each other and then rise like the Phoenix from our ashes to take over are again apparently gaining ascendancy. I'm hoping we can slow them down again.

Sorry, but you misunderstand yours truly and Dr. Monteith. I have had more than a few of my own run-ins with CNP. Basically, they considered me an enemy. Dr. Monteith told me he had broken with them as well for many of the same reasons.

Constance 11:00 AM,
Actually your comments should've been addressed to 10:40 PM not to me.
I was simply giving a Wikipedia link so people wouldn't necessarily just automatically go to the unusually lengthy link and cautioning people about overly-long links. Period. I was neither pronouncing judgement on Dr. Monteith (who I happen to admire greatly) nor the CNP.
Constance,
It seems you are going to have to talk about these issues confronting the EU. The way things are going, there may no longer by an EU in due time…
Poland STRIKES BACK at the EU
Comment by a Pole (“antrill”), providing information:
By the way, for those of you who do not understand what the drama about our judiciary system is all about, let me clarify. Our ruling party has decided to basically kick out half of our judges due to them being complicit in the previous, communist, system. Some of them have sentenced our anti-communist opposition to prison, others have even sentenced our anti-communist resistance fighters (the last of which managed to avoid being captured up to 1963) to death. Somehow this has upset the EU officials (hmm, it's almost like they don't want their commie buddies to lose power). Other than that there's this bit about our attorney general getting the power to remove corrupt judges from power, which too has upset the EU. Just so you know, this would let our attorney general have the exact same powers as the attorney general of Germany. Hipocrites. You have to understand how our judiciary system works. There has not been a purge of communist judges after 1989. They've remained there. Some have left just to let their children take their place. Children upbrought by the same communist parents. This whole shit is only happening because we've refused to take in "refugees" and it's the personal vendetta of the unelected communist EU leaders (im not joking, most of the higher ups in the EU have been members of various communist and maoist parties in the past). Merkel herself was part of the Socialist Youth Movement in East Germany.

Regarding Craig's recent postings about the crisis of the EU:
Could it be that the long-held Soviet/Russian strategy of using Islamic terror as a proxy vector of attack against the West is a part of what's going on? It has always been a strategy of Moscow to turn the EU into a "new European Soviet" (what Gorbachev called it). We all know that the KGB created and trained most of the modern Islamic terrorists. We trained some as well, but only in response to the Soviet action, and not near as in-depth (though we have had our set of problems because of it). In using Islamic sects and radicals to further a higher goal, no one approaches the KGB/FSB in scope and sophistication.
Germany has a role to play as well, as does the rise of Nazism.
What do you think of this concept for a good example of dialectics:
A problem is created: Islamic terrorism, which I've read recently is more of a political system of control and conquest than a religion. Regardless of what it is as it's manifesting currently in the geopolitical realm, it is still a major threat.
The solution to this problem, in Europe, is being seen as coming from two places: Russia, who promises to "re-Christianize" Europe, and to protect Europe from the Islamists, and from far right nationalist (or outright Nazi) groups and parties, who have risen up "out of nowhere" to fight against the extremist Islamic threat.
I use quotes around the phrases above to demonstrate that these are both examples of "controlled opposition". That is, the Russians created the problem, and they also had a hand in being part of the solution, so that the implemented solution, when it is put in place, advances their long term strategy. Same as the Germanic/Nazi solution to the problem - also a controlled opposition, so as to give Germany and perhaps even a revived Nazism a "seat at the table" of the proposed solution.
How integrated into the EU will these solutions be? Interesting question.
+++++++++++++
This is from the back cover of the book by Story called "The European Union Collective: Enemy of its Member States", which I linked to a post or two back:
THE EUROPEAN UNION COLLECTIVE exposes the ongoing covert Soviet strategy of seeking to establish 'Europe from the Atlantic to Vladivotok' - Soviet hegemony stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific, with the 'former' Muslim Soviet Republics corralled into a pseudo-independent 'arc of Islamic extremism'- and the parallel continuing Pan-German strategy, unchanged from the days of Hitler and earlier, of 'Europe from the Atlantic to the Urals'.
cont...
...cont.
Central to the implementation of these coordinated and competing attacks on the nation state - Lenin's agenda -is the EUROPEAN UNION COLLECTIVE, which Mikhail Gorbachev has referred to as 'the new European Soviet'.
It is the enemy of its Member States.
In order to unravel the outlines of covert Communist Soviet strategy to collectivise Europe, Christopher Story explains, in Part 1, that there has been no genuine discontinuity of Soviet strategy since the false 'changes' of 1989-91, and that the Soviet Union was dismantled - strictly for external public consumption only - in part, so as to provide 'space' for the mysteriously eastwards-expanding 'new European Soviet' which is to take its place.
In Part 2, the Author demonstrates that, likewise, there has never been any discontinuity of the Pan-German strategy to secure German hegemony over Europe that has been pursued since the days of the Kaiser and Hitler and earlier. ON the contrary, the European Union is modelled on a format sketched out in the Nazi compendium published in Berlin in 1942, entitled Europaische Wirtshaftgemeinschaft and developed by the Nazi International from its Madrid exile thereafter.
When the Allies established the West German Government under Konrad Adenauer in the late 1940s, the returning Nazis penetrated the main structures at the end of the preplanned 40-year Allied occupation of Germany in 1989.
The European Union - a political collective constructed along Soviet and Pan-German lines - is the primary vehicle for the establishment of European collective hegemony being exploited today by the covert Communist Russians and their Pan-German collaborators.
Well that's a mouthful, and I'm not sure of all of it, but it is a fascinating take on what's going on currently in Europe. And Solana is not completely out of the above picture painted by the above blurb.
(Here's an interesting take)
The Man Who Brought Jihad To Britain, Did So Thanks To MI6
by Nafeez Ahmed
CIA, ISI, MI6
In 1993, Masood Azhar was founding chief of the Pakistani militant group Harkat ul-Mujahedeen (HuM), previously called Harkat ul-Ansar (HuA). In both guises, Harkat was closely protected by Pakistan’s Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), due to its key role in the CIA-MI6 backed war to eject the Soviets from Afghanistan.
A core feature of this covert programme was the bastardisation of Islam: the financing of extremist preachers and the proliferation of thousands of madrasahs preaching violent jihadism.
So concerned were the West’s national security mandarins to ensure these burgeoning madrasahs taught the ‘right’ doctrines, they directly financed the printing of hundreds of thousands of textbooks supplied to Muslim school children, “filled with violent images and militant Islamic teachings” in the words of the Washington Post.
These violent doctrines successfully subverted the conservative teachings of countless Islamic seminaries within the spectrum of Deobandi and Salafi schools of thought. Far from jihadist ideology being an automatic product of those traditions, the toxic climate of the Cold War provided an unprecedented material boost to a violent extremist fringe, who were now empowered to dominate Islamic discourses.

“WE WANT TOMMY OUT, WE WANT TOMMY OUT!”
Tommy supporters chase away police, EU silences speaker, and Tommy is now in danger.
Comments attempting to clarify TR’s arrest:
Amsterdamheavy:
In the interests of accuracy, he was arrested for breaching the peace, but he was in violation of a previous order to NOT breach the peace; that is why he was sentenced so quickly to 13 months. Similar to a probation violation, you dont get a trial at that point. Its still bullsh^t though.
r00t hkr:
What peace did he breach? He reported on a muslim rape gang, that's it. No peace was breached. The constant protection of muslim f^cks has got to end. The UK government NEEDS to be overthrown.
AmsterdamHeavy:
its a 2nd violation after being specifically advised by the court - and Tommy pled guilty to that. I dont think they planned to lock him up, but there most definitely is a concerted effort to make him shut up.
r00t hkr:
If they didn't plan to lock him up that wouldn't have been the first thing they did. Make no mistake, they want Tommy dead.
AmsterdamHeavy:
"breach of the peace" as defined by the court - I do not disagree with you, but that is the reality
r00t hkr:
No, he stood outside, no shouting, nothing flashy. Just him and one of this mates filming him making a video of the MUSLIM RAPE GANGS. He didn't breach anything. They saw him there and decided to cater to the muslim pieces of sh^t [MUSLIM RAPE GANGS], who should be killed, and arrested Tommy [instead]. Everything you're saying doesn't agree with the actual video of him trying to report the event and getting arrested on the spot.
The facts disagree with you. Tommy is public enemy number 1. The British government (via public servants) have harassed his family on many occasions, he's had his home raided many times, he's been arrested and attempts have been made on his life by muslims. And you don't see a problem with that??
papa Smurf:
In the interest of accuracy. He was arrested for breach of the peace, later changed to contempt of court. BOTP has nothing to do with what he was charged with. It was used as an excuse to arrest him immediately. He was charged and sentenced to 13 months for contempt of court, even though he committed no offence. His bail conditions were that he stayed off court property, [yet] he was outside the court on the street and asked the police there if it was ok for him to be there, they said yes. As for him being sentenced so quickly, from the street to 13 months in a prison cell in approx 4 hours for contempt of court is unheard of in UK criminal history. The establishment are clearly out to get him, they want him silenced before he exposes their involvement in paedophilia. He's already exposed them for covering up the grooming gangs.
Presumably, TR purportedly interrupted a criminal trial—a big no no. HOWEVER, the jury had already deliberated, so THERE WAS NO CONTEMPT OF COURT AND NO LAW BROKEN!
Sorry, that last short paragraph was mine.
Craig,
Great job reporting this info. The only way to get this out is via the Internet, because the main stream media isn't touching it with a 100' pole.
"In days like these, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." Actually, telling the truth in ANY age would also apply, because the "whole world lieth in wickedness" and hates the truth, and always will until Christ returns and establishes His eternal kingdom.
RayB,
I am far past sick and tired of being lied to by the press—or not being told of important events, i.e., selective ‘reporting’.
To add to the above, I found the article the vlogger snapshots @ 4:05:
Tommy Robinson ‘the martyr’ – how the far right builds its victim narrative
Now, let me help to deconstruct the half-truths and lies. I’ll cite the article in italics, then make my own comments, reflecting the facts as I understand them (anyone can correct me if they think I’m wrong—especially anon 9:20/10:01/10:40--but let's do so with documentation, not emotionally-charged, non-substantive statements):
…How the far-right builds its victim narrative. Certainly some TR supporters are “far-right”, but I’d venture to say that the large majority are more just right of center, like me. But, hey, if they use the typical tactic of identity politics and broad-brush all TR supporters with the label “far-right”, with the negative connotation that entails, then they can safely denigrate the entire group, taking what is, in their eyes, the “moral high ground”.
When Tommy Robinson, founder of the extreme right-wing group the English Defence League…. TR founded the EDL, yes, but he left the group he founded when it became infected by far-right neo-nazis.
…was jailed recently, he was sentenced for breaching very clear and specific laws restricting what can be reported about ongoing legal proceedings…. I already covered this above. The jury had already reached its verdict, thus, he did not report the goings-on of the trial.
…But the high-profile campaign that has sprung up to call for his release revolves around something quite different. It’s all part of a well established, and highly effective, narrative of right-wing politics, which depicts people like Robinson as victims of a repressive state. No; the response was against the tyrannical manner in which TR was railroaded. And, yes, depending on your politics, the UK is a “repressive state”. To know who is in control, all one has to do is discern who cannot be criticized. (Someone in the comments to the 8:10AM vlog stated simply, “1776”.)
Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley Lennon, was sentenced to 13 months in prison for live streaming outside a court where a rape trial was taking place. He did this despite a court ban on reporting details of the trial. Nope. The trial was not taking place. He did, however, provide names of those on trial during his livestream, since THIS WAS ALREADY PUBLISHED IN THE NEWS PRIOR TO THE TRIAL.
Protesters held a rally in central London, waving British flags and carrying banners emblazoned with Robinson’s face and the words “#Free Tommy Robinson”. They scuffled with police officers and some were arrested. The highlight of the rally was a speech by Geert Wilders, leader of the far-right Dutch Party for Freedom.

"Islam in a man is like rabies in a dog" -Winston Churchill
Ah, you saw that Winston Churchill quote in the comments, too. Here’s the actual quote in its full context, from his book The River War: An Historical Account of the Reconquest of the Soudan, but only in the original 1899 two volume work:
How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.
A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement, the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.
Yes, and I saw the other too.
Almost did exactly what you did and put the whole thing there but that short version packs a punch so I left it be.
Dogmatism is Islam (or any religion) left to play full out in it's extremes go exactly where that quote goes.

I wanted to provide the full context to illustrate that Churchill wasn't denigrating all individual Muslims.

This is great! I’ve seen some of these before, but not all. That’s Jesse Lee Peterson @ 4:30, asking the Latina reporter if she is racist. Classic! And the MSNBC FAIL was hilarious! The reporter was so taken aback, she couldn’t find words. To paraphrase, “well, there aren’t really very man African-American Trump supporters’. It’s growing all the time, if YouTube is any indication.
When race-baiting goes EMBARRASSINGLY WRONG
Within days after the Vatican's Secretary of State attended the highly secretive, globalist elite meeting of the Bilderberg Group, the Vatican is now teaming up with the radical leftist World Council of Churches.
The World Council of Churches' representatives will be attending conferences with Pope Francis at the Vatican in order to engage in a joint effort to promote open borders, nations without walls, mass migration and globalism. Also on the agenda is to study the problem of "politically motivated populism," and xenophobia.
The World Council of Churches is nothing other than a Communist front organization hiding under the cloak of "christianity." It is about as Anti-Christ of a group as you will ever find. "Populism" is a major obstacle that stands in the way of the despotic One World Government! Therefore, it MUST BE DESTROYED!

Thank you Susanna for that exposition on the Gospel of Matthew, you did this much better than I could.
Constance, watched your TrueNews interviews, very good. When you do the final article on satanism in the military, be sure to answer ahead of time any who credit an American officer's word above a satanist's word (expressed here already and doubtless held by many) by mentioning the fact that the Chaplain's manual for 1980 referenced the existence of satanism as an approved religion in the military with chaplaincy by saying no update except an address change from the 1975 chaplaincy manual. I think I sent you a scan of that let me know if you have it. This proves there would have been NO investigation of Aquino because of his being a satanist in the Army in 1980 or whatever year Valleley said.
Solana drove NATO expansion east I think I put a link showing this in a thread a few years back. This was a violation of the agreement to NOT expand NATO, denied by the west but proven eventually by tapes and memos etc. Crimea meanwhile was Russian for 300+ years until Nikita Kruschev put it in Ukraine jursidiction instead of Russian among the various soviets or states within the USSR.

It looks like the EU is under fire from nationalist movements, and Soros is in a panic. I think the EU will break up and someone suggested that with its fall, the UN is next to go down. Naturally there will be pushback.

As I've said before, EVEN IF THERE IS GOING TO BE A TEN NATION REVIVED ROMAN EMPIRE, NOT ONE OF THE PARTS NEEDS TO BE IN EUROPE. (more than one interpretation possible of that statue.)The Roman Empire was not just Europe but Asia Minor, the Middle East, western part of Persia, and north Africa.

And salvation as a one shot deal instead of the start of and consisting of an ongoing process is late developed notion requiring taking Bible verses out of context.

If you have a son who is in the least bit ‘handy’, I’d highly recommend some sort of skilled trade school rather than college. Not only will he make decent to excellent money and easily find employment, he will be away from rabid feminism and the viciously anti-male (unless gay or trans) atmosphere that has become our campuses, by and large.
As for the fall of the EU, looking at it from a timing perspective based on the crash of the currency, we are looking at 2020/2021 as the next target. Unless they are able to put a bigger band aid on and buy an extension in time. This coincides with an extreme dollar high.
Now things can get pushed off a little, and I would agree with the thought of waiting for 5G to be fully operational as a scope for when you would finally see a euro crash and dollar high. The dollar high will necessary before the crash and burn in government and the global monetary reset.
Canadian Muslim Imam Tawhidi supports Austrian Chancellor’s decision to expel up to 60 Imams and close a number of mosques in Austria. He finds it outrageous that Turkey’s Erdoğan would think to scold another country for what they decide to do within their own borders (hear, hear!). He—rightly in my mind—sees the Turkish funded mosques and Imams as an attempt in fulfilling Erdoğan’s desire for a new caliphate towards a revival of the Ottoman Empire:

How so (and all too) typical of MCE to conveniently "overlook" and ignore criticisms (except for select snippets that she responds to). So let's see the critique she's now responded to (but just a tiny bit of) in FULL, shall we?
Anonymous 5:41 PM
Constance,
You've recently had to go so far as to actually DELETE Christina's post, yet the highly abusive posts (SUPPOSEDLY from someone other than she, herself) at 1:56 PM AND 9:37 PM taken together have the SHEER AUDACITY to actually BEMOAN the fact that (due to your retrictions on her) she is not free to 'grace' this blogspot as often as she pleases. And NOTE that Christina was well pleased with the type of hate-filled "support" she got.
So surely it is time to place a ban on her posts or at the very least increase the restriction you imposed on to to once every TWO weeks (if not once a MONTH).
Please consider it.
P.S. And note further that she CONTINUES to throw in (as one poster put it) unnecessary juicy gratuitous details: "(only a spill in semi intimate contact)". Although this particular one is certainly tamer than some others of hers, it nonetheless still makes the point: We can do without such "gems".
Her response: "nothing gratuitous, BUT KEY IMPORTANT ISSUES, not 'unnecessary' at all."
Yes, it WAS desperately urgent that we get the words "spill in semi-intimate contact" as well as her speculative detailed imaginings about the supposed (by HER) sexual excitement of CHILDREN on an earlier "gem-filled" post of hers.
Amd as a further example of her intellectual dishonesty she continues to promote Shoebat after (in a previous post) she selectively responded to the negative articles about Shoebat by just saying (and without documentation) that he DID commit terrorism against a bank. Not ONE word about the other Shoebat discrepencies cited in the Wikipedia article NOR one word about the Shoebat antisemitism described in other articles.
Her posts do NOT add to this blogspot but DIMINISH it.
So, if not outright banned, surely once a month of her posts is MORE than enough!
Believe her
…lies
The following isn’t the only occasion in which a woman LIED about sexual assault (Tawana Brawley, the case reported in Rolling Stone a few years ago, etc.). How many other times have men been actually jailed on false rape charges? And how much time do these false accusers spend behind bars compared to the time of the falsely accused/convicted? (Hint: much less)
Ex-Sacred Heart student pleads guilty to false rape claim
A woman gets one year in jail after pleading guilty to making false rape allegations against two Sacred Heart University football players; the attorney for the men accused reacts on 'The Story.'
So, Nikki Yovino gets one year, while those falsely accused lost YEARS of their lives already from being booted out of college, living with the stigma of being a ‘sexual predator’, etc. And these guys were fortunate the woman changed her mind—for whatever the reason—so, that were not actually jailed. Women know they can quite literally ruin a man’s life with an accusation. It doesn’t even have to be true to do the damage. If you cross the wrong woman, or if a woman decides to make up an allegation to salvage her reputation…
There was even a case in which a man’s own daughter (early teens, as I recall), accused her own father of repeated sexual assault—until the attorney heard her testimony in which she used verbiage not typically known to a girl her age, and, on a hunch, asked for a 24 hour recess to hastily read through Fifty Shades of Grey only to find the verbiage in that novel. When confronted, the girl admitted the allegations were false, and that she used the material in the novel against her father, because she was mad at him for being, as she felt, “too strict” with her. A similar thing happened to a friend of my ex-neighbor, his friend having to live with my neighbor a few days, until a brief investigation yielded the same basic thing: his high school aged daughter made up the allegations because her father was “too strict”. All it took was to interview a few of her classmates who then admitted to police that she told them she planned to do it.
Another ‘benefit’ of feminism.

To Craig:
" . . . there may no longer be an EU . . ."
Craig, I respect your inputs, but I believe the prophecies show a rocky start and end for the EU. Let's start with the Book of Daniel that tells of the Image in the dream of Nebuchadnezzar. It started with a head of gold. It ended with 10 toes of mixed iron and clayu -- some strong, some weak. Consider the following:
I/And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay, and
part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided ; but there shall be in it of
the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed
with miry clay.
And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the
kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall
mingle themselves with the seed of men : but they shall not cleave
one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a
kingdom, which shall never be destroyed : and the kingdom shall
not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume
all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever./I/
Start with this: the 10 toes, some strong, some weak.
Because of space limitations per comment, I will continue my analysis based on Biblical text. The foregoing is from Daniel 2:41-45
Constance
To Craig re "end of EU" continued:
The iron and clay WOULD NOT CLEAVE TOGETHER.
There have been many unsuccessful attempts in the past to reunite the former Roman empire territories. But things were to happen near the end of time that would make a difference. Ten kings would eventually hand their power over to one man. This appears from at least my opinion of the obvious interpretation that it would be to consolidate power so they could stand against another power/powers. These ten kings would hand their power to one man and "share power with him one hour." As a day is a year, proportionally "an hour" is proportionally a much shorter time.
Now, we come to another item also in the Book of Daniel that appears to parallel the ten toes -- this was a fierce beast that had 7 heads and 10 horns from which another little horn would arise.
After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast,
dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly ; and it had great iron
teeth : it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue
with the feet of it : and it was diverse from all the beasts that were
before it ; and it had ten horns.
I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them
another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns
plucked up by the roots : and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the
eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
¶ I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days
did sit, . . .
The "little horn" is believed by many to be the same figure as that prophesied in 2d THESSALONIANS, chapter 2, the "Man of Perdition."
to be continued in next comment from me.
Constance
So, Daniel chapter 8 gives us more detail about this intriguing character, the "little horn":
¶ Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon
earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour
the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise :
and another shall rise after them ; and he shall be diverse from the
first, and he shall subdue three kings.
And he shall speak great words against the Most High, and shall
wear out the saints of the Most High, and think to change times
and laws : and they shall be given into his hand until a time and
times and the dividing of time.
But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion,
to consume and to destroy it unto the end.
The foregoing passage was from Daniel, Chapter 8.
In short, he was going to administer a regime intrinsically hostile to God's peoples.
More next comment . . .
Constance
Was this "little horn" to be a very handsome and charismatic figure? Not necessarily. Consider these passages:
Daniel Chapter 11:
And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall
not give the honor of the kingdom : but he shall come in peaceably,
and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.
And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before
him, and shall be broken ; yea, also the prince of the covenant.
And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully : for
he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people.
He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the
province ; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor
his fathers’ fathers ; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil,
and riches : yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the
strongholds, even for a time.
In short, this biblically prophesied person would be good with intrigue and diplomacy -- not necessarily a rock star of great hypnotic proportions.
To be continued.
Constance
So on to 2d Thessalonians, chapter 2, that you can read for yourself and then on to Revelation 17:
And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have
received no kingdom as yet ; but receive power as kings one hour
with the beast.
These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto
the beast.
These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome
them : for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings : and they that are
with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
So, these 19 kings hand their power to one man, but they don't share it with him.
Now, I'm not prepare to say that the EU is it. But consider the WESTERN EUROPEAN UNION, a military federation. That kingdom was handed to Javier Solana by its ten members for "its last year of operation" on November 20, 1999.
So very fascinating, the same day this was handed to Javier Solana, there was a huge celebratory event for "global governance in the 21st Century. Interestingly, enough, you can read a graphic writeup of the events and attendees on page 666 of Sidney Blumenthal's book THE CLINTON WARS.
You can also watch Bill Clinton's enthusiastic remarks that evening at this link:
https://www.c-span.org/video/?154363-1/progressive-governance
At any rate, I believe things are happening and the EU and Solana are perhaps BIG PLAYERS in the Agenda. I also believe it is clear that "populism," BREXIT, Donald Trump, etc. are being used as excuses to expedite the global governance agenda.
The final beast was going to tread the "whole earth". The goal of the global governance crowd is "one world."
I have much more I can and should share. I'll try to do some relevant blog articles and possibly NewswithViews articles in the very near future. I should have done this earlier.
Some of this was covered in some of the interviews Rick Wiles just completed with me in Vero Beach, Florida. Those programs are up now both at www.TruNews.com and/or their YouTube channel.
Constance
I have serious doubts the EU will end. They’re not operating as though the end is approaching. As this British writer points out, Brexit is like the Hotel California: countries can check out any time they like but they can never leave.

Daniel 2 - NLT
41-"The feet and toes you saw were a combination of iron and baked clay, showing that this kingdom will be divided. Like iron mixed with clay, it will have some of the strength of iron. 42-But while some parts of it will be as strong as iron, other parts will be as weak as clay.43-This mixture of iron and clay also shows that these kingdoms will try to strengthen themselves by forming alliances with each other through intermarriage. But they will not hold together, just as iron and clay do not mix.
44-“During the reigns of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed or conquered. It will crush all these kingdoms into nothingness, and it will stand forever."

Daniel 7 - NLT
7-Then in my vision that night, I saw a fourth beast—terrifying, dreadful, and very strong. It devoured and crushed its victims with huge iron teeth and trampled their remains beneath its feet. It was different from any of the other beasts, and it had ten horns.
8-As I was looking at the horns, suddenly another small horn appeared among them. Three of the first horns were torn out by the roots to make room for it. This little horn had eyes like human eyes and a mouth that was boasting arrogantly.
9-I watched as thrones were put in place and the Ancient One sat down to judge...

Daniel 7 - NLT
23-Then he said to me, “This fourth beast is the fourth world power that will rule the earth. It will be different from all the others. It will devour the whole world, trampling and crushing everything in its path. 24-Its ten horns are ten kings who will rule that empire. Then another king will arise, different from the other ten, who will subdue three of them. 25-He will defy the Most High and oppress the holy people of the Most High. He will try to change their sacred festivals and laws, and they will be placed under his control for a time, times, and half a time.
26-“But then the court will pass judgment, and all his power will be taken away and completely destroyed."

Daniel 11 - NLT
21-“The next to come to power will be a despicable man who is not in line for royal succession. He will slip in when least expected and take over the kingdom by flattery and intrigue. 22-Before him great armies will be swept away, including a covenant prince. 23-With deceitful promises, he will make various alliances. He will become strong despite having only a handful of followers. 24-Without warning he will enter the richest areas of the land. Then he will distribute among his followers the plunder and wealth of the rich—something his predecessors had never done. He will plot the overthrow of strongholds, but this will last for only a short while."
http://biblehub.com/nlt/daniel/11.htm
2nd Thessalonians 2 - NLT
3b-For that day will not come until there is a great rebellion against God and the man of lawlessness is revealed—the one who brings destruction. 4-He will exalt himself and defy everything that people call god and every object of worship. He will even sit in the temple of God, claiming that he himself is God.
5-Don’t you remember that I told you about all this when I was with you? 6-And you know what is holding him back, for he can be revealed only when his time comes. 7-For this lawlessness is already at work secretly, and it will remain secret until the one who is holding it back steps out of the way. 8-Then the man of lawlessness will be revealed, but the Lord Jesus will kill him with the breath of his mouth and destroy him by the splendor of his coming.
9-This man will come to do the work of Satan with counterfeit power and signs and miracles. 10-He will use every kind of evil deception to fool those on their way to destruction, because they refuse to love and accept the truth that would save them.
http://biblehub.com/nlt/2_thessalonians/2.htm
Revelation 17 - NLT
12-"The ten horns of the beast are ten kings who have not yet risen to power. They will be appointed to their kingdoms for one brief moment to reign with the beast. 13-They will all agree to give him their power and authority. 14-Together they will go to war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will defeat them because he is Lord of all lords and King of all kings. And his called and chosen and faithful ones will be with him.”
http://biblehub.com/nlt/revelation/17.htm
Constance,
Thanks for your comments. I’m well-aware of the position that the EU may be fulfilled prophecy for those Scriptures you cite. I’ve studied them with that view in mind (though it’s been quite a while since I’ve looked into these matters). Of course, as you state, you are “not prepared to say that the EU is it”. Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t.
I think the more important issue to analyze at present is the enforced mass migration from Libya and Syria (and other countries)—largely individuals adhering to Islam—and the effects of this, as well as the cumulative effect of the gradual influx of Muslims and Islamists into the EU over the past three decades or so. And why are these recent immigrants largely fighting age males? Could this all be an attempt at bringing forth LeMesurier’s goal as outlined in The Armageddon Script? In fact, I’d say an argument can be made that this is precisely what has been going on.
The basic elements of what I’ll call (for lack of a better term) “conservative” Islam are incompatible with the West. That is, it has a political element, a desire for theocracy—a position mutually exclusive with the Western countries in which these recent immigrants are thrust.
With the EU governments essentially, or actually (including Canada), criminalizing any criticism of Islam, the largely Christian (yes, even nominal Christians) populations are left biting their tongues when serious crimes are being perpetuated against them. For example, these “’Asian’ grooming gangs” have been raping non-Muslim teen-age, and even pre-teen, girls (i.e. Kafir, “unbelievers”) for decades, all covered up by the local police for fear of retaliation because of PC-ness, apparently. THIS is part of the reason why the British ‘proletariat’ are in the streets fighting for Tommy Robinson’s release. All this has been brewing for quite a while now.
To be clear, my intent is not to criticize ALL Muslims. There are different sects, and, frankly, I don’t know which are the more peaceful as opposed to those that lean more militant. But, I think it prudent to talk about the elephant in the room that is Islam in a fair and balanced way, and, further, the way in which it has and is changing the EU, and what those long term effects are.
Even Bill Maher understands some of the issues, which you can see in this clip in which he agrees with his guest Sam Harris, while Ben Affleck just makes emotionally-charged straw man arguments against every point Harris makes:
Ben Affleck, Sam Harris and Bill Maher Debate Radical Islam | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)
As one commenter notes: At 1:10 [Sam Harris]: "The crucial point of confusion is that we have been sold this meme of islamophobia, where every criticism of the doctrine of Islam gets conflated with bigotry towards Muslims as people." And then Ben proceeds to spend the next nine minutes proving Sam right.
Prior to the popular, modernistic system known as Dispensationalism, the vast majority of Bible trusting Protestants identified the SEAT of the Papacy as that of the Antichrist.
Before you scoff at such a notion, take the time to read a very detailed, Biblical and historical case presented by Rev. J. A. Wylie. I have read this, and have found it very difficult to counter his synopsis.
http://www.historicism.net/readingmaterials/thepapacy.pdf
PS: I have studied the doctrinal system known as Dispensationalism (aka Scofieldism), and also its history as to how it came into being. I have read their end time prophecy books that were written to "interpret" the times of World War 1 & II. All came to strikingly false conclusions. Yet, their incredibly poor track record never deters its adherents as they continue to name specific individuals as the "AC," and have done so for over 100 years. While doing so, they have ignored what historic orthodox Christianity has held to be true since the power of Rome became universal in the then known world ... Europe.
Craig,
Muslims, too, are suffering terribly at the hands of terrorism. Aren't those killing kids in schools home grown terrorists within the United States?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=6&v=U49nOBFv508

Yes, everyone suffers at the hands of terrorism. But, let's not conflate US school shootings with Islamic terrorism. The two have very different origins.
Yes they do. The point is most Muslims are suffering because of these radicals. Attributing terrorism to Muslims would be like attributing school shootings to every person who owns a firearm.
Border chief rebukes media. Illegal immigrant kids have playstations, pool tables in shelters
MSM reporting that children are being kept in concentration camps is patently false!!!
The mainstream media is outright lying in their reporting that illegal immigrant children are being detained in concentration camps, according to the acting deputy commission of the U.S. Customs & Border Protection.
“The shelters that they are referring to are operated by Health and Human Services (HHS). They are very well appointed,” CBP Acting Deputy Commissioner Ronald D. Vitiello told Fox News on Saturday.

The Media Are Lying About Trump Separating Illegal Immigrant Families. Here’s The Truth.
By BEN SHAPIRO - DAILY WIRE
June 18, 2018
Over the weekend, the media went insane over the supposed Trump administration policy of separating illegal immigrant parents from their children. According to the media, Trump could with one quick fix simply prevent the separation of children from their parents; according to the media, all Trump has to do is wave his magic wand, and all will be well.
This is a lie.
More specifically, it’s several lies.
1. Trump Created Separation Of Children From Illegal Immigrant Parents. This is plainly false. In 1997, the federal government made an agreement in a case called Flores not to keep unaccompanied illegal immigrant children in custody beyond 20 days. The settlement said nothing about accompanied illegal immigrant children – children who crossed the border with their parents. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals then ruled that accompanied children also could not be held in custody under the terms of the settlement. This meant that the government either had to release whole families, or that the government had to separate parents from children.
2. Immigrants Seeking Asylum Are Being Punished For Seeking Asylum.This is plainly untrue as well. Immigrants who come to points of entry to seek asylum aren’t actually illegally in the country – they’re not arrested. They’re processed through ICE, and their children stay with them. If, however, illegal immigrants cross the border illegally, the Trump administration now treats them as criminals. If they choose deportation, they aren’t separated from their kids; if they choose to apply for asylum, they stay in the country longer than 20 days, and their kids have to be removed by operation of law.
3. The Trump Facilities Are Awful Thanks To Trump. They may be awful, but they were just as awful under President Obama. These are pictures from Brandon Darby of Breitbart circa 2014:

The big mistake made by the Trump administration here came courtesy of Stephen Miller and John Kelly, both of whom reportedly stated that the administration was separating kids from parents as a sort of deterrent. That’s idiotic. The deterrent is arrest and deportation, not separating children from parents. That’s why the House is attempting to pass some sort of fix here to keep kids with their parents.
But with that said, the media coverage of this issue has been patently irresponsible. Trump isn’t forcing children away from parents. He’s enforcing the law on the books. The legislature can fix that law at any time. The facilities he’s using are the same facilities Obama used. Pretending that this is Japanese internment (as Laura Bush suggested) or the Holocaust (as General Michael Hayden suggested) is ridiculous. This policy ought to be fixed. But lying about it isn’t designed to fix it. It’s designed to prevent a fix by allowing Democrats to play political football with children, believing they’re winning a victory by holding Trump’s feet to the fire with pictures of crying children.

Constance,
If you are following the Qanon posts ( Q anon is military intel close to Trump posting on 8chan etc), he indicated that Manafort is a "plant" in the Trump campaign. Some have suggested that Mueller is going after the people who were plants such as Carter Page and Popadopoulos.
I'm not saying whether this is the case or not, but it seems to be true.

NEWS FLASH ... Barbara Bush writes op-ed in the Washington Post condemning the enforcement of the very law that her husband "W" signed into law in 2008! They sent out Barbara to attack Trump because no one wants to hear what Bush Sr., Bush Jr., and JEB! have to say. Clever bunch of Globalists that Bush clan is.
15 minute (below) compilation of Trump and various Democrats, mainly Hillary, stating virtually the same position on how to handle the influx of "children" that have crossed our border illegally. How do you tell a politician is lying? When their lips begin to move.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=143&v=isB0bodyudk
PS: Read what Revelation 21:8 has to say about what happens to "all liars." Hint, they end up in the lake of fire! So politicians that think their clever lies don't have consequences ... well ... they are in for an eternity of surprise.
Revelation 21:8
"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."
PS: As a side note, how does this truth above compare with "pope" Francis's declaration that "atheists that do good will go to heaven?" One is a lie, told by a liar, the other is the truth, as revealed by God. Which will YOU follow? If it is the liar, you are an idolater, and will suffer the consequences of your "belief" in men, rather than the true Holy Father.
RayB,
That is Laura Bush, not Barbara.
Regardless of who said it for what motive, personally, I dislike the situation where children are being placed in cages, removed from their parents and sent to unknown foster parent destinations. Of course, we can't have "open borders" with no restrictions, but the crisis situation in Central America of gangs and murders is a very real one. What a wicked world we live in! Come quickly, Lord Jesus!
For the people to have endured the hardships they went through to make it to the USA border, their situation must have been very bad indeed. Jesus did admonish the Jews to be kind to strangers in their land as they remembered that they themselves were once strangers in a strange land.
Constance
Constance,
With all due respect, you are being duped. These kids are NOT being held in "cages." That is a flat out lie perpetrated by the Globalists and the main stream media in an attempt to discredit the populist Donald Trump. They are using this very same tactic re: the "refugee" crisis in Europe, whereby the vast majority of refugees are not women and children, but rather, fighting age males. Of the 620 people on the recent boatload of refugees (I can't recall the name of the ship), only 11 were women/children!
See this article put out by NPR. One in awhile, even NPR reports the truth.
https://www.npr.org/2018/06/14/620085615/these-are-not-kids-kept-in-cages-inside-a-texas-shelter-for-immigrant-youth
PS: By the way, Jesus commanded us to "render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's." Please direct me to the passage where Jesus commanded His followers to revolt against Rome and disobey its laws.
I would challenge those that support an "open border" policy (not saying you do) to open their doors to their home and allow every "stranger" to dwell within.
More ...
Trump policies are NOT causing the separation of children from their parents ... the "parents" are to blame.
DHS Sec. Nielson states that of the 12,000 children being detained, 10,000 of them were SENT here by their parents. This is nothing short of child abuse!

PS: Adolf Hitler wrote in Mein Kamph (paraphrase): "By proclaiming that a policy is needed to protect children, you can get ignorant people to agree to just about anything."
Constance,
I watched a Fox News segment of “The Five” on YouTube yesterday in which Donna Brazile was a guest, and this issue was discussed fairly and accurately. However, if you do a “Google” search, a Fox News article in this vein is not even found on the first three pages of results. It’s best to try a different search engine. In fact, I’ve been using DuckDuckGo for a while now, as they claim NOT to track you—as Google does.
In any case, here’s one vlogger’s take on this, making the point about how long it took him to find a counter to the prevailing view on Google. This guy most always understands what is REALLY going on:

I know that Pope Francis has weighed in on the immigration crisis numerous times, and that he admonished us to "welcome the strangers in our land," and has often expressed "grave concern" in particular when it come to migrant children. I get it. The Pope is for the children of the world.
Maybe it's just me, but, am I the only one that thinks it strange that the "Pontiff" was absolutely silent, as in not one single word, during the entire campaign when Catholic Ireland recently voted in favor of legalized abortions? I mean, he has expressed on numerous occasions his "grave concern" for migrant children, yet, when he could have had a tremendous amount of influence AGAINST the legalized murder of children in the womb, his "holiness" just couldn't quite find any words. I wonder why that is?
Craig makes a good point above about using Google for searching. Their search results are more skewed as time goes on. I've been using DDG (DuckDuckGo) for years now, mostly so that my search results aren't tracked, but also because the results seem more balanced and things don't "disappear" as readily in DDG.

The takedown of Chris Hardwick shows #MeToo has gone TOO FAR
By Andrea Peyser - NY Post
June 19, 2018 | 6:23pm
Call it The Revenge of #MeToo. It frightens me.
People who tuned in Sunday night to AMC were greeted by a terse, one-sentence message on their screens:
“‘Talking with Chris Hardwick’ will not be seen tonight.”
The erasure of Hardwick from the airwaves and the public square was SWIFT, BRUTAL and nearly COMPLETE.*
This was a hard-core reaction to an online essay published on Thursday by Hardwick’s ex-girlfriend, Chloe Dykstra. Without mentioning Hardwick by name, she detailed, in often cringe-worthy fashion, emotional and sexual abuse she claims to have suffered during a nearly three-year intimate relationship with the host of TV programs including “Talking Dead,’’ the aftershow that dissects AMC powerhouses “The Walking Dead’’ and “Fear the Walking Dead.”
From the way Dykstra, 29, describes it, she was a ghost, the victim of sexual assault, mental torture and controlling behavior, forbidden from as much as talking to other men.
The torment allegedly began just two weeks into the relationship, which ran from 2011-2014.
Evidently, in this brief time, she was completely hooked by the charismatic performer. It ended after she left Hardwick, 46, for another man — and claims that he and a former female friend of hers set out to blackball her in the entertainment industry.
She then weirdly quotes Michelle Obama and writes that she thinks the former first lady would support her — though it’s doubtful Obama would get involved in this case of he-said, she-said.
Hardwick, for his part, denies completely engaging in abuse and attributes the wounded feelings to a long relationship gone awry. He put out a statement claiming that he was done with Dykstra after she was unfaithful. She admits to as much.
Who can know what goes on behind closed doors between adults?
Hardwick found some encouragement in the Twitterverse, where fed-up fans of his gathered to express their discomfort with the lack of due process in destroying a man’s reputation and perhaps career. One tweeter asked why the accuser did not go to authorities.
He also was backed by his mother-in-law, Patty Hearst (yes, her), whose tweets included a reference to a “bunny boiler,” which was later deleted.
It’s scary that a man can be convicted and punished without a trial or as much as a thorough hearing.
#MeToo developed as a movement in which people might find empowerment by standing up to abusers. Now it’s being used as a cudgel for aggrieved parties to exact revenge.
It disturbs me, and I worry that as more people, most of them women, abuse this power, and if more outlets fire employees without vetting the accusations, the public will start disbelieving all accounts of abuse.

*Remember how VERY quickly ALL new and OLD episodes of "Roseanne" were dumped down the 'memory hole' across multiple networks?
These two instances serve to illustrate that to one degree or another the processes are in place which could super-quickly dump OTHER types of things than just sitcoms down the 'Memory Hole' TOO!
(In the USSR they said that even the PAST was uncertain!)
WELCOME TO THE BRAVE NEW WORLD
Black Pigeon Speaks knocks this one out of the park. Topics discussed are Feminism, abortion, “toxic masculinity”, the MGTOW (men going their own way) movement, Natalism (promoting the propagation of the species at more than replacement levels)/anti-Natalism, etc., and how these may well lead to the end of the West:
ONLY Patriarchy Builds Nations * / & other UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTHS
I would have titled this “ONLY Patriarchy Builds and Sustains Nations”.
One point I never put together, and was a “duh!” moment for me, is his statement that inherent in current ideological thinking is that to concede that there are differences between the sexes is tantamount to—according to this ideology—the conclusion that one sex is superior to the other. Never mind that this is illogical.

On almost a daily basis, the Pope attempts to interfere into the affairs of a sovereign nation. This time, he attacks Pres. Trump's "policies of separating children from their families." He fails to state that of the 12,000 children that are being HUMANELY housed and fed here in the USA, that 10,000 were in fact sent across the border BY THEIR PARENTS! Why? Because the child becomes an anchor with the parents and the rest of the family to follow, gaining access to the USA illegally.
The Pope declares "populism is not the answer." REALLY? What is the answer then? How do you spell ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT?
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-pope-interview/exclusive-pope-criticizes-trump-administration-policy-on-migrant-family-separation-idUSKBN1JG0YC
AGAIN ... this Pope interferes only when it suits the Globalist's agenda. He remained ABSOLUTELY SILENT during the entire campaign in Catholic Ireland as they voted to make abortions legal! The despotic Globalists LOVE abortion ... and its off spring euthanasia. If the Pope's completely hypocritical silence on Ireland's abortion issue doesn't wake you up, NOTHING will.

Why is the Vatican highlighting ‘LGBT youth’ in lead up to Youth Synod?
http://lifesitenews.com/news/why-is-the-vatican-highlighting-lgbt-youth-in-lead-up-to-youth-synod
Anon @ 5:50 PM ..
The Vatican is in a position where it must find a way to legitimatize "LGBT" because there is so much of this that is going on among Priests, Nuns, the hierarchy, etc. Studies indicate that as many as 65% + Priests are homosexuals. Also, there is a very large and powerful "gay" lobby within the RCC as well as the Vatican itself. Certainly, "pope" Francis has expressed himself, in no uncertain terms of being "pro-gay," so much so, that a Homosexual magazine named him "Man of the Year."
The entire "LGBT" movement is an expression of an "in your face" rebellion against God and His Word. It has become in vogue to support the "LGBT" agenda, especially among the youth, who have been brainwashed by Government schools and universities to believe this is all perfectly normal.
Consider this: as older conservative Catholics continue to die off, the younger "pro-LGBT" Catholics are taking their place. The dilemma for Rome is obvious; either change with the times or continue to lose appeal and whither away!
Also, make no mistake about it, many, many so called "protestant" churches are moving in this direction as well. It won't be long, IMO, that we are in full-blown apostasy.
In recent weeks some on the Left have grown increasingly unhinged as President Donald Trump continues to bring America back from the edge of (the) decline (brought about by) Barack Obama.
His successes are numerous — the economy is growing quickly, joblessness is at a record low, disability claims are falling now that employment opportunities are rising, and America is back on the global stage.
But each success brings new anguish and a rise in the level of pure rage and hatred for Trump, and of course, the Pravda media is out in front leading the way. You could even say the media is feeding the Trump haters and pushing them beyond the point of insanity.
That’s the only way to explain why a has-been, long-washed-up actor — Peter Fonda — would take to Twitter to threaten the first lady of the United States and her youngest child, and in the vilest way possible.
The text, sent very early Wednesday morning...said: “WE SHOULD RIP BARRON TRUMP FROM HIS MOTHER’S ARMS AND PUT HIM IN A CAGE WITH PEDOPHILES"
...
As reported by The Daily Caller, Fonda has been on a Twitter tirade lately:
He called for the public caging...of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristjen Nielsen in a tweet Tuesday. In the vulgar tweet, Fonda said “Kristjen Nielsen is a lying g*sh that should be put in a cage and poked at by passersby.” He continued, “The g*sh should be pilloried in Lafayette Square naked and whipped by passersby while being filmed for posterity.”
[Note: Fonda did NOT bleep the "g-word" in any of his tweets!]
He also proposed via Twitter that White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ three CHILDREN BE KIDNAPPED and then locked in a basement, referring to her using a very sexist slur (aren’t “progressives” supposed to be tolerant and lockstep backers of women?).
“SS is a lying g*sh, too. And ‘g*sh’ is much worse than c__t. Maybe we should take her children away and deport her to Arkansas, and giving up her children to Stephen Goebbels Miller for safe keeping,” he wrote.
Someone is going to get hurt — or killed
That he keeps referring to “we” is what’s troubling. More on that in a moment. (Related: Left-wing VIOLENCE has created a ‘new normal’ for GOP Congress: Dramatic increase in THREATS.*)
The threat against the First Lady and Barron was too much. Melania’s spokeswoman, Stephanie Grisham, told The Daily Caller that the Secret Service has been “notified” of Fonda’s warped threat.
“The tweet was sick and irresponsible and USSS has been notified,” she said.
Meanwhile, DHS and the office of Sanders have yet to respond to media requests for comment.
As to Fonda’s “we” reference, you could chalk that up to the language of a coward requiring validation from a crowd for inferences and threats that he alone is making. Or you could view it as a call for assistance; a dog whistle to those on the Left who are already perpetually angry and ready to justify violence against a president whom they can’t stand and his family. And his administration.**
The First Lady no doubt well understood that her life would forever change if her husband became president. We can only imagine the conversations that took place prior to POTUS announcing he would seek the GOP nomination in June 2015.
But she didn’t sign up for this kind of abuse.
It’s bad enough no one on the Left — Democrats, the Pravda media, the entertainment world — is criticizing Fonda for his rank vileness. What’s worse is that someone may act upon his threats.

This woman generally has good content, though I disagree at times. On this one, besides a few quibbles, my only objection is that she doesn’t qualify some of what she states as generalizations, not absolute truisms.
Do Women Secretly WANT Patriarchy?
“…When I first started this channel I was baffled between the unholy alliance of feminists and Muslim migrants. Initially, I thought that they had joined forces merely because feminists wanted to virtue signal [ED: illustrate how ‘virtuous’ they were], and saw Muslim migrants as persecuted comrades with a similar oppressed minority status. This was a superficial understanding of the situation, although it might be a tiny bit true.
“Once I started to learn more about gender relations I came to see that what is going on here is that feminists, in their lack of understanding of their own mind and nature, had become disgusted with the state of their own men and wanted to import men from a patriarchal society. Nowhere is this more true than in Sweden…”
As some back up to one of her points, she directs the audience to this paper: The Evolution of Empathy and Women’s Precarious Leadership Appointments
Here’s her conclusion:
“...This really applies to all Western countries. Feminists are socially engineering a societal collapse, and if I’m being truthful, I don’t think they even understand their own sexual reproductive or maternal motivations for disenfranchising their own men, and allying with patriarchal cultures that would oppress them to a degree they cannot even imagine. Keep in mind these are women that think they are being oppressed in modern Western countries where they have unprecedented power and freedom.
“This is why it’s dangerous to have women in positions of power, especially when they’re making policy decisions. Their rationality gives way to their feelings, then, suddenly, that is at the core of every company and government decision. I don’t understand how, at this very late stage, people cannot see this.”
Now, I don’t think that she believes ALL women in power are incapable of making rational decisions (nor do I), but, there are enough cases that, unfortunately, bear out.

“The united front against immigration quotas.” The Visegrad 4 (Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, and the Czech Republic) will not attend this Sunday’s EU meeting to discuss “migration issues”.
Visegrad Four Countries To Boycott EU Migrant Summit
Austria’s Chancellor Sebastian Kurz joined the Four in a meeting, expressing solidarity. The narrator states, in part:
…Austria will take over the EU’s rotating Presidency next July 1st. Its government hopes to use that to push EU migration policy to a harder line
A subtitle in the video: “Visegrad Group an Island of Prosperity, Security and Morality in a Sea of Evil”. It’s important to note that all four of the Visegrad countries have what is best called more patriarchal governments and are all grounded in more traditional customs as compared to their Western European counterparts.
Though this is mostly a talk-over-fest (“elevated dialogue”, the facilitator politely calls it)—because of the pro-Islam speaker, primarily—some hair-raising statements are intelligible from Anjem Choudary, UK Head of Al-Muhajiroun. He wants to use the freedoms within the democratic government of the UK in order to replace it with Sharia Law:
Maajid Nawaz debates Anjem Choudary
Choudary: “…If you believe in something, then it should be good for all times and places…”
Facilitator: “And how is the campaign to move the UK over to Sharia Law coming along?”
Choudary: “While this is in the hands of God, we do our best to propagate Islam. Well, of course it is. I think many will see that democracy and freedom are no good for the British, no good for Afghanistan, and, in fact, we need an alternative. And, like manmade law, the Sharia is not something which gives you a right today, to take it away tomorrow. It’s good in all times and places.”
Nawaz: “To make this about freedom and democracy is absurd. Anjem, you haven’t had a hair on your body touched by this government or this country. You haven’t spent a day in prison. You haven’t suffered one bit for your views. You’re allowed to sit right here right now because of freedom and democracy. In your so-called Caliphate, you’d have me killed, wouldn’t you? Would you have me—am I an apostate that deserves death?”
Choudary refuses to directly answer the question, thereby exposing an answer in the affirmative.

Constance 12:17,
There are two ways of looking at the Trump-Brexit-Populism thing.
The more popular one I think is that the "Powers That Be" created and are controlling these three, so they can bring about their global government through the dialectic.
The other, which is the one I happen to believe, is that there is a true, (mostly) uncontrolled opposition to the plans of the Globalists, which is best exemplified in Trump, Brexit, and Populism (or Nationalism, or perhaps better: those who favor the preservation of the nation-state and the distinct cultures within the borders of such nation-states).
Unfortunately, it looks like Brexit is going to be the first of them to fail. If they can then get rid of Trump, that only leaves the people of the world who are anti-globalists and pro-nationalists. And again, unfortunately, there are a lot of bad actors mixed in with the good in that crowd, which will make it "easy" for the rest of the world to demonize the remaining freedom lovers, removing the last obstacle for a World Without Borders. Their hope is for a resulting world without war, but we know that ain't gonna happen....
You think a lot like I do, Marko.
Those pesky free thinkers are the loose cannon the controlling types of every extreme can't abide.

Posted 6/22/18, 04:06 pm
Public libraries across the country are hosting drag performers for children’s story hours in June. What started as a one-off 2015 event in San Francisco has become a national movement of libraries hiring men dressed as women to read books and sing songs with children, all advertised as kid-friendly exposure to gender fluidity.
The events happen year-round, but more libraries are hosting story hours as part of their June LGBT Pride Month events. Libraries and bookstores in Alaska, California, Connecticut, Indiana, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, and Vermont are hosting the “Drag Queen Story Hours.”
Organizers say the 45-minute program is designed for children ages 3 to 8. A local drag performer arrives in costume, reads from a selection of two or three books (often with LGBT themes), leads the children in some song and movement activities, and closes with a craft. Hosts herald the “family-friendly” events as an opportunity to draw children into a message of “inclusivity and acceptance” using sequins, extravagant dresses, face paint, and fun.
“What do drag queens and children have in common? They love dressing up and all things sparkly and fancy!” reads an explanation posted on a Brooklyn Public Library event website. “Drag Queen Story Hour captures the imagination and play of the gender fluidity in childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models.”
...
“Children are so impressionable and easily led,” Jeff Johnston, an issues analyst with Focus on the Family, told me. “Drag queen story times sow confusion and lies into their hearts and minds at a very formative time of life.”

What Solana said immediately post-Trump election that is pertinent today. If you are looking for good search "buzzwords" with the Globalist crowd, add "multilateralism" to your repertoire.
The world is past the point of closed borders and unilateral solutions. We have already globalized; now we need global rules to underpin economic and financial stability, as well as peace and security. The EU, despite its many challenges, has not only proved its value as a cornerstone of the international order; it has also vindicated the broader value of global vision and leadership, carried out through diplomacy and smart multilateralism. Now more than ever, it is a lesson that we cannot afford to ignore.

"...typical of MCE to conveniently "overlook" and ignore criticisms (except for select snippets that she responds to). "
I respondto what seems to me most serious and there is a space and posting issue. why answer ANY of your crap anymore. why throw pearls before swine? go study Proverbs about fools and see if the shoe fits and ask God for help to be better if so. Ask God anyway.
false rape charges are not "another benefit of feminism." back in earlier 1900s a gal hollered rape and a guy was in trouble. Then everybody got wise to games. And sexual predation and harassment used to be a morals charge if prosecuted or a morals issue. there was a vice squad in big cities. But morals got thrown out the window. So such matters had to be attacked on political grounds.
the original feminism demanded chastity for men same as for women. JUST LIKE THE BIBLE DOES polygamy being a tolerated form of adultery that at least wasn't love 'em and leave 'em.
What Dystra describes is a classic psychopath (often in positions of power) exploited her emotions and career needs and his status to keep a punching bag around and too afraid to tell. The dynamics are the same as in an abusive marriage. the presence of absence of a ritual or piece of paper means nothing.
confident energetic men are sexy, but the key is, is this because they feel superior to women, or as a personality trait? the latter is needed and the neutering of western men is partly because "manliness" is despised in both sexes. Leaves both sexes without a strong model.

President Trump Ravages The 'Dark Cabal Of The Deep State' After Dark And Dangerous Period Of US History Revealed In IG Report
- And Just Imagine This Horrifying Alternative Reality
Soon after last Thursday's release of the bombshell IG Report that the mainstream media is doing their very best to cover up with non-stop coverage of the illegal immigrant crisis in America, President Trump correctly stated that the IG Report not only totally destroyed corrupt former FBI head James Comey but that it also revealed "a dark and dangerous period in U.S. history".
Calling Comey "the ringleader in the whole den of thieves", this 'dark cabal of the deep state' that has stained the criminal justice system and sold away their allegiance to 'country' to get Hillary Clinton into office by any means necessary proved corruption existed at the very highest levels of our DOJ and FBI. Yet as this June 16th story over at Zero Hedge pointed out, according to House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, "good FBI agents" tipped off Congress about the mass corruption under Comey.
And with that actually helping just a bit to restore our faith that what is supposed to be our nation's most pre-eminent law enforcement agency may indeed one day come through and hold those responsible for that corruption accountable for their actions, a tidal wave of information continues to come out after the release of the IG Report including the news that over 300 bribes were paid to FBI agents by journalists, Peter Strzok was recently escorted from FBI headquarters and the exposure of two more anti-Trump lovebirds.
But if you think that any of this would be front page news had Hillary Clinton won the election and her sitting in the Oval Office right now, you'd be terribly mistaken...

How to live a positive life in a negative world
http://www.naturalnews.com/2018-06-23-bryant-mcgill-interviewed-by-the-health-ranger-how-to-live-a-positive-life.html
I promise this is not satire. There is a group wanting to remove the “B” in LGBT… (etc.—I cannot keep track of how many letters there are ‘supposed’ to be). The reason? Since the “B” stands for “bisexuals” and said group believes that there are more than two genders (and some of the missing letters in my ellipse bear this out), the “B” needs to get the Boot! Perhaps there will be a new term for “bisexuals” so that a new letter can be substituted.
A few years ago, an ex-coworker who fits into the “L” category told me that “B”s are not really “B”s, they just hadn’t yet figured out whether they are homosexual or heterosexual. This was back when there were only the four letters (or maybe the “Q” was there). My how times have changed in such a short time…
----
A couple years ago I took notice of a bumper sticker on an SUV parked on the street along one of the routes I do my runs (or walks). I saw it again today and had to laugh. It reads, “TRUST COMEY and the FBI”.
We could go all the way back to Potiphar’s wife’s false attempted rape accusation against Joseph. I could conceive that Deut 22:23-27 could have led to false accusations, though Deut 19:16-21 would hopefully have provided deterrence. Too bad we don’t apply the latter to false accusers today.
In any case, in the modern era, feminism has increased the incidence of false rape claims in myriad ways. The sexual revolution gave unprecedented sexual power to women; however, traditional values took longer to accept these changes. With that partially in mind—as well as the likelihood of little to no penalty for false accusers—there’ve been a number of cases in which a woman consented to sex only to claim rape later in an attempt to keep her reputation—or marriage, boyfriend, etc. In addition, the outrageously inflated claim of 1 in 5 women on campus being a victim of sexual assault (SA) and/or rape has also contributed. When taken with the “believe her” campaign, in which the claim is that SA victims are not likely to come forward, therefore, we must believer every woman who does make an accusation, the man becomes, in essence, guilty unless/until proven innocent. And, some women have been vocal about their nonchalant attitudes regarding the falsely accused men. The idea is that it’s better that some men get falsely accused than if one perpetrator goes unpunished. (Also, some of these just hate men, and therefore, seem to delight in such a thing.) Thus, due process is out the window.
Regarding this bogus 1 in 5 (20%!) claim of SA and rape on campus—which would make US campuses one of the most dangerous places for a woman in the entire world—statistics show this to be a huge distortion. (Another part of the issue is that rape and SA have been expanded to include any unwanted attention that can be construed as ‘sexual’ and/or ‘non-consensual’—as construed by the accuser, of course.) See here:
Rape and Sexual Assault Victimization Among College-Age Females, 1995–2013
One can skip right to Table 1 on page 4. The Table compares students with non-students. In every category—threat of rape/SA, SA, attempted rape, rape—non-students are at higher risk. Taking just the worst of these, rape, the rate on campus is .2% (2 out of 1000), as compared to .31% (a little more than 3 out of 1000). If we include all four categories, a bit more than 6 out of 1000 students have been victimized, while non-students are victimized at a rate of a bit less than 8 out of 1000. So, in a group of 500 college women aged 18-24, statistically speaking, 3 have been sexually victimized, with 1 of those having been raped. That’s still too many, but it’s a far cry from the 1 in 5 claims by feminists (which include men). I want to believe that many perpetuate this false stat through ignorance. But, the teachers have no excuse—though they are likely willingly complicit.
In light of the above, the situation on US campuses for young men is dangerous. If we are to believe the inflated statistics, then if there are the statistically usual number of cases—a much smaller number—a case, regardless of merit, will be deemed to bring the school closer to ‘norms’. US campuses already have a system in place that makes it difficult for young men to get adequate representation (they strive to keep the cases on campus instead of criminal courts where they belong), but it’s even worse in Canada. I’ve mentioned her before, but I’ll mention her again: Diana Davison has been helping falsely accused/convicted men for a while now. Here’s her newest vlog:
The UBC Rape Hoax
I hope her efforts can effect change.
I really like this lady, anti-feminist Janice Fiamengo, a Canadian Professor in the Department of English at the University of Ottawa. All her material is worth viewing:
Why Can't We Hate Men - TFF episode 84
Modern day feminists want all the benefits of being a modern woman, having equal rights, but without some of the responsibilities of men. They demand for more women in STEM, but why not refuse collection, construction, etc.?
One thing that I've always found VERY suspicious about the ACTUAL agenda of the "equality" push by SOME of its promoters, is that, rather than a simultaneous push to advance the usage of weight training by women to INCREASE their strength (which would be a VERY, VERY, GOOD thing in general, REGARDLESS of whether they happened to be applying for a certain physical strength-related position or not) physical requirements for certain "male-dominated" jobs (including in the MILITARY) have been LOWERED instead!

Just some of their "agenda:"
Mass migration, nations without borders, goals to end all global poverty, sharing of global and economic resources (by force via taxation), LGBT inclusion into a "safe" society (promotion via educational brainwashing), limitations on land "space" (the end of suburbia), global enforcement of fossil fuel usage limitations, creation of safe cities (gun control), global taxation to fight "climate change," severe limitations of individual use of cars, etc., etc.
The bottom line is this: these Agendas promote a collectivist society enforced by a centralized, all-powerful, autonomous global government. The rights of individuals will be done away with if these despots get their way.
Do you remember who it was that was given the honor to deliver the opening speech at the United Nations for the Agenda 2030 Summit in 2015? It was NOT Javier Solana. It was none other than Pope Francis.

United States denies Javier Solana entry permit
The reason is trips made by the former Secretary General of NATO to Iran, one of the countries included by Trump on his blacklist
The immigration regulations imposed by the Trump Administration seem to have made such prestigious figures suspicious as Javier Solana, NATO Secretary General (1995-99) and High Representative of the EU's Foreign and Security Policy (1999-2009). . The Spanish politician has recently been denied the electronic authorization to travel to the United States (ESTA) due to his trips to Iran, one of the countries included by Trump on his blacklist.
MORE INFORMATION
Javier Solana: "The Catalan process is not on the table of the European prime ministers"
Spaniards do not need a visa to travel less than 90 days to the United States. That does not guarantee that they can not be rejected at the border. Therefore, to avoid surprises, it is advisable to obtain an electronic travel authorization before taking the plane, which does not entitle you to enter the country, but allows you to trust that there will be no problems at customs.
Solana did not overcome this first filter, so he could not attend an act of the Brookings Institution that was scheduled in the US. Sources from the US Embassy in Madrid have not wanted to comment on Solana's case, but have explained that the system automatically rejects the requests of those who have visited in recent years Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Somalia or Yemen. That does not mean they can not travel to the US, but they must obtain a visa, as if they were not citizens of a country exempt from that requirement.
In conversation with EL PAÍS, Solana denied the incident and confirmed that he is in the process of obtaining a visa. As head of EU diplomacy, Solana was one of the first impellers of the nuclear agreement with Iran, which has been rejected by the Trump Administration.

TAMING THE POPULISTS
by Javier Solana
25 Aug 2016
In many Western democracies, right-wing populists, energised by self-proclaimed victories over "establishment elites", are doubling down on the claim that globalisation lies at the root of many citizens' problems.
For those whose living standards have stagnated or declined in recent decades, even as political leaders have touted free trade and capital flows as the recipe for increased prosperity, the argument holds considerable appeal. So it must be addressed head on.
Of course, economic grievances alone do not fuel anti-globalisation sentiment; populism has emerged even in countries with low unemployment and rising incomes.
But such grievances provide the kernel of truth that populist leaders need to attract support, which they then attempt to secure with distortions and exaggerations.
If the economic issues are not addressed, support for such leaders will continue to grow, potentially taking their societies backwards, to a less tolerant - and LESS PROSPEROUS - time.
Exploitation of sentiments
The likes of Donald Trump and Marine Le Pen did not gain a foothold in their countries' politics - not to mention the chance of leading them - on their own.
They exploited the feeling of many citizens that the political classes - which touted the benefits of globalisation, while allowing inequality to rise to unprecedented levels - had abandoned them.
...
Leaders MUST NOT REJECT globalisation...
Protecting the social equilibrium
Many advanced-country citizens...are not opposed to poverty reduction in faraway countries. But if they believe that, say, the Chinese are becoming wealthier, while their own real (inflation-adjusted) wages remain largely stagnant, they will not accept globalisation.
If their own societies' wealthiest members are also becoming richer, conditions become ripe for anti-establishment rebellion. The image of "untrustworthy elites" is ideal fodder for populists, who claim that globalisation has given the wealthy and powerful more money and power than ever.
But the world that the populists and their constituents hope to recreate - a world of self-sufficient, egalitarian states insulated from developments around them - NEVER* existed. Any effort to CLOSE ECONOMIES - much less BORDERS - would FAIL DISASTROUSLY.**
...
Over the next year, important national elections will take place in Europe and in the United States. If populists triumph, many important social achievements will be put at risk.
...
A victory for populism would indicate that the political classes really have failed their citizens.
The unthinkable can happen. Populists can win.

7 FARM ATTACKS and 3 MURDERS in 24 hours | The BRUTAL TRUTH ABOUT SOUTH AFRICA
At 2:29 are the words of Julius Malema, Member of Parliament and the leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters, a far-left and racial nationalist South African political party, which he founded in July 2013:
I don’t know what’s going to happen in the future. I’m saying to you, we’ve not called for the killing of white people, at least for now. I can’t guarantee the future.
Yet, according to the vlogger, Malema does advocate the killing of the Boer (white farmers) many times when he is in front of an audience.
And yet, the 'mainstream' media remain mostly silent on all this.
In my opinion, Javier Solana has consistently been "low-profiled" for strategic purposes well known to insiders. Solana, to the best of my knowledge, an atheist, is President of the Global Governance School of Esade University. That University is owned by Bergoglio (Pope Francis) religious order.

Adding to Craig's post above, below is a link to an interview of Lauren Southern by Stefan Molyneux regarding the current situation in South Africa. Very informative, first hand information.
Lauren Southern is a Canadian independent journalist, and one very courageous young lady, that recently produced a documentary on the plight of white farmers in South Africa.

Back when Nelson Mandela died in 2013, Stefan Molyneux posted his take on who exactly Mandela REALLY was. Hint: if you believe all the pablum of the main stream media, you might be in for quite the shock.

RayB,
A bit ago when I first read your comment I made a mental note to comment that I’d been waiting on Lauren Southern’s promised documentary Farmlands to be released. Well, she just did!
FARMLANDS (2018) Official Documentary
Since I just found out about—I’m subscribed to her YouTube channel—I haven’t yet had a chance to view it. However, she’d posted snippets about it since January, so I can recommend Farmlands based on those.
Beginning of the End of the Bilderberg Era?
Like him or hate him, President Trump has played a major part, if only by saying the unsayable.
June 25th, 2018
By Alastair Crooke
The beginning of the end of the Bilderberg/Soros vision is in sight. The Old Order will cling on, even to the last of its fingernails. The Bilderberg vision is the notion of multi-cultural, international cosmopolitanism that surpasses old-time nationalism; heralding the end of frontiers; and leading toward a US-led, ‘technocratic’, global economic and political governance. Its roots lie with figures such as James Burnham, an anti-Stalin, former Trotskyite, who, writing as early as 1941, advocated for the levers of financial and economic power being placedin the hands of a management class: an élite – which alone would be capable of running the contemporary state – thanks to this élite’s market and financial technical nous. It was, bluntly, a call for an expert, technocratic oligarchy.
Burnham renounced his allegiance to Trotsky and Marxism, in all its forms in 1940, but he would take the tactics and strategies for infiltration and subversion, (learned as a member of Leon Trotsky’s inner circle) with him, and would elevate the Trotskyist management of ‘identity politics’ to become the fragmentation ‘device’ primed to explode national culture onto a new stage, in the Western sphere. His 1941 book, “The Managerial Revolution,” caught the attention of Frank Wisner, subsequently, a legendary CIA figure, who saw in the works of Burnham and his colleague a fellow Trotskyite, Sidney Hook, the prospect of mounting an effective alliance of former Trotskyites against Stalinism.
But, additionally, Wisner perceived its merits as the blueprint for a CIA-led, pseudo-liberal, US-led global order. (‘Pseudo’, because, as Burnham articulated clearly, in The Machiavellians, Defenders of Freedom, his version of freedom meant anything but intellectual freedom or those freedoms defined by America’s Constitution. “What it really meant was conformity and submission”).
In short, (as Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould have noted), “by 1947, James Burnham’s transformation from Communist radical, to New World Order American conservative was complete. His Struggle for the World, [converted into a memo for the US Office of Strategic Services (OSS, the forerunner of CIA)], had done a ‘French Turn’ on Trotsky’s permanent Communist revolution, and turned it into a permanent battle plan for a global American empire. All that was needed to complete Burnham’s dialectic was a permanent enemy, and that would require a sophisticated psychological campaign to keep the hatred of Russia alive, “for generations”.
What has this to do with us today? A ‘Burnham Landscape’ of apparently, ‘centrist’ European political parties, apparently independent think-tanks, institutions, and NATO structures, was seeded by CIA – in the post war era of anti-Sovietism – across Europe, and the Middle East – as part of Burnham’s ‘battle plan’ for a US-led, global ‘order’. It is precisely this élite: i.e. Burnham’s oligarchic technocracy, that is facing political push-back today to the point at which the Liberal Order feels that it is struggling for its very survival against “the enemy in the White House”, as the editor of Spiegel Online has termed President Trump.
What has caused this? Well, like him or hate him, President Trump has played a major part, if only by saying the unsayable. The rationality or not inherent in these Eckhart-style 'unsayings’, or apophasis, is beside the point: Trump’s intuitive ‘discourse of saying the unsayable’ has taken most of the bolts out of the former Burnham-type, ideological structure.
But in Europe, two main flaws to the Burnham blueprint have contributed, possibly fatally, to the blueprint crisis:

EU Approves Internet Censorship Bill | Article 13 | Meme Ban
Articles 11 and 13 were approved by the EU’s JURI commission. Article 11 will require a writer to pay a “link tax” and/or to get permission to use snippets of work. This will severely hamper independent journalism. And this could be retroactive to everything currently on the net--as with Article 13.
Article 13 would require all websites the check posts against copyrighted work, and remove those flagged as copyrighted. But they won’t go into effect until passed by EU Parliament.
'Disastrous' Copyright Bill Vote Approved
BBC News
The changes could put an END to user-generated content, warn critics
A committee of MEPs has voted to accept major changes to European copyright law, which experts say could change the nature of the internet.
They voted to approve the controversial Article 13, which critics warn could put an END to memes, remixes and other user-generated content.
Article 11, requiring online platforms to pay publishers a fee if they link to their news content, was also approved.
One organisation opposed to the changes called it a "dark day".
The European Parliament's Committee on Legal Affairs voted by 15 votes to 10 to adopt Article 13 and by 13 votes to 12 to adopt Article 11.
It will now go to the wider European Parliament to vote on in July.
'Censorship'
Last week, 70 influential tech leaders, including Vint Cerf and Tim Berners-Lee, signed a letter opposing Article 13, which they called "an imminent threat to the future" of the internet.
Article 13 puts more onus on websites to enforce copyright and could mean that every online platform that allows users to post text, sounds, code or images will need some form of content-recognition system to review all material that users upload.
Activist Cory Doctorow has called it a "foolish, terrible idea".
Writing on online news websiteBoingBoing , he said: "No filter exists that can even approximate this."
...
Critics say it...could be manipulated by governments to CURB FREEDOM OF SPEECH.
After the vote, US not-for-profit organisation Creative Commons, which aims to make more content free for others to share, called it a "dark day for the open web".

Sarah Sanders’ Family Harassed MUCH Worse Than Initial Reports!
By AMANDA PRESTIGIACOMO
June 25, 2018
On Friday, Sanders and her family were asked to leave a Virginia-based Red Hen restaurant by the owner because Sanders works for President Donald Trump...
But according to (her father, former governor Mike) Huckabee, after Sanders and her husband left the establishment to go home, the rest of her extended family — her liberal in-laws — walked to a restaurant nearby to have dinner. They were allegedly FOLLOWED AND FURTHER HARASSED by the Red Hen owner!
"There’s a part of that story that has not been told," said Huckabee, speaking on Laura Ingraham's radio show. "Once Sarah and her family left — of course Sarah was asked to please vacate — Sarah and her husband just went home, they’d had enough. But, the rest of her family went across the street to a different restaurant."
"The owner of the Red Hen — nobody’s told this — then followed them across the street, called people and organized a protest, YELLING AND SCREAMING at them from outside the OTHER restaurant and creating this scene," he continued...
"This is what the Left has been reduced to — it’s really tragic. And, it is DANGEROUS and that’s what I think people need to recognize," warned the former governor.

Filthy canopies and mussed my hair: The Funny Trump is back
By Monica Showalter
One of President Trump’s biggest assets is the one the pundits don’t talk about much: He’s funny.
Caustic, detached, lighthearted, scornful, anecdotal, boastful, he’s always been very strong on this front, with a comedian’s sense of timing, and a great sense for what people are thinking, honed well by a previous career in reality TV. He’s really, really good, even if people don’t like his politics, although leftists, hopelessly sputtering, will never admit it.
...
But the weight of the presidency, or more likely, the influence of the swamp, with all its Washington mannerisms, pretty well has obscured that thing that first won so many over to him. Well, until recently. It seems that a lot of successes and a lot of new things to hope for have brought back the old Funny Trump to the voters, the outsider, the successful everything, the television magnet – and that’s bad news for Democrats.
It started with his funny tweet Monday, about the “filthy canopies” of the Red Hen restaurant, whose owner abusively threw out the perfectly well-mannered and kind-of-temperament customer Sarah Sanders simply for representing President Trump as his spokeswoman. Instead of getting mad, he tweeted this zinger:
"The Red Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!"
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)
June 25, 2018
Who’d have thought to look at the appearance of the restaurant as an indicator of its godawfulness instead of pontificate about its bad behavior and how that’s a threat to the republic. What’s more, voters can see that it indicates a previous identity, a recognizable one, the one that’s layered beneath the presidency: the successful real estate man. Sha-zaam!

To add to Craig's & Anon's posts above:
The rest of the story that the lame stream media isn't reporting:
Sarah Sanders and her husband decided to go home, while her in-laws decided to dine at a restaurant located across the street.
As Sanders' in-laws left the dirty little restaurant, the crazed fascist owner followed the Sanders entourage across the street and continued her verbal harassment. She then made cell phone calls, and within a short time, a number of "protestors" arrived, where they shouted slogans outside the restaurant ... my guess it was probably along the lines of "workers of the world ... UNITE!"
The left is imploding, and their radicalism is being displayed for all to see. Crazy Maxine Waters and her ilk are doing more good than a hundred Trump rallies!

The Democrats are the victims of their own radical rhetoric, fueling George McGovern (lost to Nixon, 49 states to 1) types of radical socialist candidates to challenge the party establishment. The problem for the Democrats is that Bernie Sanders' Socialism cannot win national elections, but appeal only to relatively small, radical sections of the country.
Further proof that the Democrat Party is fragmenting and imploding upon itself:
NY Rep. Joe Crowley is an establishment, Hillary Clinton Democrat that was among favorites to become a future Speaker of the House. In the past 14 years, Crowley never even had an opposition candidate in the primaries ... until this year. Crowley, an outspoken "resist Trump" Congressman, LOST to an upstart, 28 yr. old Bernie Sanders campaign organizer in yesterday's primary election. This is a huge blow for establishment Democrats, because it gives rise to the truly radical leftist wing and illustrates further their eroding appeal to the vast section of moderates that are the ones "in play" in virtually every election.

WATCH: POLICE CHIEF CALLS PRESS CONFERENCE AND THEN ARRESTS EVERYONE WHO SHOWED UP
Leon Valley, TX — Over the weekend, the chief of police for the Leon Valley Police Department called a late-afternoon press conference to address police accountability activists live-streaming officers.
However, as soon as the conference began, chief Joseph Salvaggio began arresting people and then detained the entire crowd.
Over the past two months, Salvaggio has been the subject of multiple videos and independent media articles for his alleged corruption.
...
“Thank you for coming to Leon Valley. I totally, totally support your right to put something online, your First Amendment right,” said Salvaggio before completely negating that statement. “Everybody else, you are not free to leave… you are witnesses, every one of y’all are witnesses to the crime. Every one of your cameras, your devices, every one of them are going to be taken, every one of y’all, sit down right here.”
Salvaggio then ordered his officers to ARREST every single other person in attendance, including those who tried to walk away.
“Go back and get the rest of them, get every one of them,” he said.

http://lifesitenews.com/opinion/bishops-admit-they-knew-cardinal-mccarrick-was-an-abuser-but-stayed-silent
To Anon @ 10:32 AM ...
The practice of "staying silent," covering up, not reporting criminal pedophile priests, Bishops, Cardinals, etc. is the RULE, not the exception. I've reported this before ... when Benedict was "Cardinal Ratzinger," for 10 YEARS, he was in charge of the special department inside the Vatican that oversaw ALL global pedophile abuse cases. Virtually every single case crossed Ratzinger's desk. What Ratzinger did was criminal, because all his office ever did was obstruct, cover-up, coordinated pay for silence agreements, transferred criminals where they continued to abuse innocent children, etc.
But, BUT, BUT .... Ratzinger/Benedict was reportedly against the New Age Movement, so I guess that makes it all a complete wash!

It seems apparent that Javier Solana is actually part of the international deep state that desires to take down Trump. by looking at the membership lists of the international organizations that Solana belongs to one begins to get an idea of who makes up this international deep state. If I understand it correctly John McCain was the American deep state actor that drove the properly elected government of Ukraine out and had it replaced by a coup more in favor with the West. Was Paul Manafort linked to the pro Russian group driven from power? If so then Solana by being against Manafort is helping to keep Manafort in jail and supporting the Russian Trump collusion narrative. Remember it was McCain who brought the Steele dossier into the country via Canada and gave it to the FBI.
The Roman empire controlled is client states by either military might or by economic controls.
Putting the Roman Empire together again has entered that stage where a few lives do not matter. Europe has a democratic deficit because it is now being perfected with assassination (Polish Plane crash (circa 2010),and Libya coup. John McCain also went to Syrian to encourage the Syrian rebels and the civil war. John McCain, the Clinton's are American deep state acters closely associated with Solana. Also if Newt Gingrich is a new world order globalist his third wife is now Vatican ambassador and Newt has converted to Roman Catholicism. The Pope is a Jesuit and Solana teaches at a Jesuit University? The international deep state is undefeated as yet. Trump at present may be a fly in the ointment but he is still surrounded by globalists.
The Barcelona Process and later ENP may sound good but they do become a means to control its members. When Qaddafi was asked to join the Union of the Mediterranean he said no and that those Maps of the Roman Empire were put away long ago. It is my conjecture that the Arab Spring was a new world order move orchestrated by Solana to remove the obstacles to making the Mediterranean a Roman lake again.
Solana has tried multiple times to control the Maghreb via the Barcelona process (1995), next NATO (circa 1997) and again with Nicholas Sarchozy's 2008 attempt to develop the Union of the Mediterranean. The Arab Spring was but another attempt. It is very interesting to see that Solana continues to be a master of deceit and the art of double handedness of diplomacy.
Even if Trump got re elected, who would carry the torch after him?
He is an unbelievably courageous man, but he is way outnumbered and surrounded by hypocrites; (actors).
But, we know that God is in control:
The Hill/Billy show, George Soros, Javier Solana, Nancy Pelosi, McCain, and all the other multitude of globalists
are all becoming feeble and breaking down before our eyes and ears. They are having their moment in the spotlight
but it won't last too long. George Soros looks like he's already dead... Oh that's right, he already is. Solana is a megalomaniac.
They are in power to a degree, but they are coming apart at the seams too, as individuals. Maxine Waters is a buffoon.
Elizabeth Warren is a hothouse flower. Hillary has something attached to her body; is it a colostomy bag? Bill looks like
a slack-jawed imbecile. The very fat, stinky, Michael Moore is a champion and a hero. Barack Obama is positioning himself to become some kind of Global leader, after doing everything he could to bring down America; ( a treaty with a muslim ruling class? Yeah right. What could possibly go wrong with that? ) Michelle will run for President, even though she doesn't know anything about America. She might win.
Macron?, Merkel?, Trudeau? If they pooled their intelligence, it would just about fill a thimble.
And on and on they parade before our eyes every day. Gutless, weak-minded, treacherous, hateful; anti-family, anti nation, anti-
morality and anti God.
Gadhafi’s Gold-money Plan Would Have Devastated Federal Reserve's Debt-Based ("U.S.") Dollar
Written by Alex Newman
(Even BEFORE Hillary's emails came to light!)
November 11, 2011
The Gadhafi regime went from “a model” and an “important ally” to the next target for regime change in a period of just a few years. But after claims of “genocide” as the justification for NATO intervention were disputed by experts...one possible reason in particular for Gadhafi’s fall from grace has gained significant traction among analysts and segments of the non-Western media: Central Banking and the global monetary system!
According to more than a few observers, Gadhafi’s plan to quit selling Libyan oil in U.S. dollars — demanding payment instead in Gold-backed “Dinars” (a single African currency made from Gold) — was the REAL cause. The regime, sitting on massive amounts of gold, estimated at close to 150 tons, was also pushing other African and Middle Eastern governments to follow suit.
And it literally had the potential to bring down the dollar and the world monetary system by extension, according to analysts. French President Nicolas Sarkozy reportedly went so far as to call Libya a “threat” to the financial security of the world.
(CONTINUED)
(Continued)
The “Insiders” were apparently panicking over Gadhafi’s plan!
"Any move such as that would certainly not be welcomed by the power elite today, who are responsible for controlling the world's central banks,” noted financial analyst Anthony Wile, editor of the free market-oriented Daily Bell, in an interview with RT. “So yes, that would certainly be something that would cause his immediate dismissal and the need for other reasons to be brought forward [for] removing him from power."
According to Wile, Gadhafi’s plan would have strengthened the whole continent of Africa in the eyes of economists backing sound money — not to mention investors. But it would have been especially devastating for the U.S. economy, the American dollar, and particularly the elite in charge of the system.
“The central banking Ponzi scheme requires an ever-increasing base of demand and the immediate silencing of those who would threaten its existence,” Wile noted in a piece entitled “Gaddafi Planned Gold Dinar, Now Under Attack” earlier this year. “Perhaps that is what the hurry [was] in removing Gaddafi in particular and those who might have been sympathetic to his monetary idea.”
Investor newsletters and commentaries have been buzzing for months with speculation about the link between Gadhafi’s gold dinar and the NATO-backed overthrow of the Libyan regime. Conservative analysts pounced on the potential relationship, too.
“In 2009 — in his capacity as head of the African Union — Libya's Moammar Gadhafi had proposed that the economically crippled continent adopt the ‘Gold Dinar,’” noted Ilana Mercer in an August opinion piece for WorldNetDaily. “I do not know if Col. Gadhafi continued to agitate for ditching the dollar and adopting the Gold Dinar — or if the Agitator from Chicago got wind of Gadhafi's (uncharacteristic) sanity about things monetary.”
But if Arab and African nations had begun adopting a gold-backed currency, it would have had major repercussions for debt-laden Western governments that would be far more significant than the purported “democratic” uprisings sweeping the region this year. And it would have spelled big trouble for the elite who benefit from “freshly counterfeited funny-money,” Mercer pointed out.
“Had Gadhafi sparked a gold-driven monetary revolution, he would have done well for his own people, and for the world at large,” she concluded. “A Gadhafi-driven gold revolution would have, however, imperiled the positions of central bankers and their political and media power-brokers.”
Adding credence to the theory about why Gadhafi had to be overthrown, as The New American reported in March, was the rebels’ odd decision to create a central bank to replace Gadhafi’s state-owned monetary authority...in the EARLY WEEKS of the conflict!
...
“I have never before heard of a central bank being created in just a matter of weeks out of a popular uprising,” noted Robert Wenzel in an analysis for the Economic Policy Journal. “This suggests we have a bit more than a rag tag bunch of rebels running around"
...
Other analysts, even in the mainstream press, were equally shocked. “Is this the first time a revolutionary group has created a central bank while it is STILL IN THE MIDST OF FIGHTING the entrenched political power?” wondered CNBC senior editor John Carney. “It certainly seems to indicate how extraordinarily powerful central bankers have become in our era.”

I have always had an uneasy feeling about Ben Shapiro. I've always felt he is an actor ... a probable shill ... that will show his true colors when the timing is right. George Will, once a darling of conservatives, has proven his true colors, I expect the same from Shapiro. His latest interview with Bill Maher certainly gives weight to my suspicions. Instead of pointing out what a sham the Mueller witch hunt is, Shapiro suggests that Trump's "impeachment" is something he would "be happy about" should it be proven that Trump colluded with the Russians. Uh, Mr. Shapiro, after 18 months, there IS NO COLLUSION!
Strangely missing from Shapiro's analogy is the fact that Mueller has conducted a biased, partisan attack, that resembles more of a coup than an unbiased investigation, an investigation that should have never started in the first place. Shapiro also failed to point out the glaring conspiracy against candidate Trump and POTUS Trump by ranking members of the FBI, Obama's Justice Department, along with the cover-up of the real crimes committed by the DNC, Hillary Clinton, the Clinton Foundations and Debbie Wassermen Schultz, etc. Shapiro failed to mention a word about the very strange murder of DNC IT operative Seth Rich, or the Clinton/DNC conspiracy against Bernie Sanders' candidacy (which may have caused Rich's death).
Furthermore, Shapiro could have chosen just about anyone to be interviewed by, but instead, he agreed to a sit-down with Bill Maher ... a man that detests Trump so much that he actually is hoping for a "deep recession so that Trump can be blamed?" Very strange behavior from this "conservative" pundit, don't you think?

Mexico is one of the most notoriously corrupt nations on earth, where virtually everything operates on a bribe. Now, the people have elected as President a leftist radical Socialist that is promising numerous "free" give away programs ... all financed by simply "ending graft." His plan is so stupid, it's almost comical, yet, the people believed him.

The New Left-wing Mexican Prez Will Encourage Migrant INVASION Of U.S.!!!
If you think our problems at the U.S.-Mexico border are bad now, just wait and see what happens when the leading candidate for Mexican president wins the July 1 election.
Leftist Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) called for massive migration to the United States during a speech Tuesday, claiming that violating a sovereign nation’s borders is a “human right.”
“And soon, very soon — after the victory of our movement — we will defend all the migrants in the American continent and all the migrants in the world,” Obrador said, adding that immigrants “must leave their towns and find a life in the United States.”
He then said mass invasion is “a human right we will defend,” eluniversal.com reports.
The Daily Caller noted further:
Obrador in April delivered speech criticizing Trump and promising that Mexico will not become a “piñata” for any foreign government, Global News reports.
The former mayor of Mexico City, Obrador holds progressive populist views.
...
Fox’s Tucker Carlson noted Thursday that Obrador has previously proposed granting AMNESTY to Mexican DRUG CARTELS. “America is now Mexico’s social safety net, and that’s a very good deal for the Mexican ruling class,” Carlson added.
AMLO is by far the leading candidate for Mexican president, which means he’ll no doubt win next month. [He DID.]
He’s already discussed his ‘economic agenda’ — it’s essentially the same thing Bernie Sanders would do if he ever manages to stumble into the Oval Office and it’s the same thing Venezuela’s socialist President Nicolas Maduro has done to his country. Socialists take from those who have and are productive and give to those who have not earned and are not productive.
It’s how they stay in power.
AMLO will put socialist redistributionist policies on steroids — all while failing to rein in the powerful, well-armed, well-financed, and deadly drug cartels that essentially control vast swaths of the world’s biggest narco-state.
Plus, Mexico has been exporting its poverty to the United States for decades. It’s a practice that POTUS Trump is currently attempting to end.
If AMLO really thinks he’s going to facilitate an invasion of America, we predict now that it will go very badly for him and his people. POTUS Trump has already indicated through the activation of National Guard troops he believes the migrant traffic coming across our borders right NOW is an invasion.
He’ll put the ARMY on the border if AMLO creates a real invasion!
People will die.
And it will be Mexico’s fault.
[And so the Libtards will be crying all the MORE that it's TRUMP'S fault and crying: "End The Suffering!" (How? Well, just REMOVE THE BORDERS. It's a HUMAN RIGHT.)]

New Mexican President on MASS EXODUS to USA: "It’s A HUMAN RIGHT"
http://libertyheadlines.com/mexican-pres-candidate-on-mass-exodus-to-usa-its-a-human-right/
does God care what you eat - that booklet is all very clever,
but one thing blows it out of the water. aside from the implications that are obvious and the inclusiveness of "eating"
and of Colossians about not letting yourself be judged about sabbaths or meat or drink, etc. is the Apostolic Council decision of Acts 15:
NO burden was to be put on the Gentiles turning to Christ, except to abstain from fornication, from blood (murder, unrighteous killing), from things sacrificed to idols, and from things strangled. The ONLY food law remaining is the very thing
ignored by protestants and RC and increasingly ignored by the
Orthodox, that you not eat meat that has not been exsanguinated to some degree and of course not add blood back into the meat
(e.g., blood sausage, chicken the neck wrung not head cut off, and McDonald's is reported to put blood into the meat to improve flavor). Peter slipping up and not eating with Gentiles would mean he was avoiding any possible non kosher food either as obvious dish or added in a stew of several types of fish incl. shellfish or of several kinds of meat, sauces involving a mix of meat and milk and/or sauces that incl. non kosher foods.

The fourth empire, the antichrist's kingdom he takes over by flattery towards its end as its last ruler, will come out of Africa.
China already has a military base in Africa (its first) in Djibouti, and is planning a new dock there large enough to accommodate destroyers and suchlike.
THE CHURCH COUNCIL OF ACTS 15
The Law which the legalistic Pharisees tried to bind on the brethren was called “the Law of Moses.” We read that a great controversy arose in the New Testament Church which involved the “law of Moses” and the matter of “circumcision.” Luke wrote in Acts, chapter 15, “But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up” – these were Pharisees who believed Jesus was the Messiah – “saying, ‘It is necessary to circumcise them [Gentiles], and to command them to keep the law of Moses". (Acts 15:5)
What was the real problem here?
In verse 6 we read, “Now the apostles and elders came together to consider this matter.”
After much discussion, the apostles ruled that God had given the Holy Spirit to Gentiles who believed on Christ, “and made no distinction between us and them [Jews and Gentiles], purifying their hearts by faith. Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a YOKE on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? But we believe that through the GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved in the same manner as they” (Acts 15:5-11).
Let's understand this!
These Pharisees were arguing that Gentiles, in order to be saved, had to be physically circumcised, and to “convert” to Judaism! They claimed that Gentiles had to become “physical Jews” by undergoing the rite of circumcision, as well as baptism, and come under the obligation to obey all Jewish religious law – the whole “law of Moses,” which, in that day, included the observation of all the Jewish “halachah” – the rules and restrictions added by generations of Rabbis from the time of Ezra down to the very day of the apostles! This included all the minutiae, and detailed 39 laws of “Sabbath” restrictions, and washings and the “traditions of the elders” – things which were a “YOKE,” in the words of the apostle Peter! (Acts 15:10). Paul speaks of it as a “yoke of bondage” in Galatians 5:1.
In other words, the Pharisee believers were teaching that Gentiles had to become “Jews” first, before they could become “Christians”! They had to first convert to Judaism, and only then could they become acknowledged as believers in Christ! They had to obey ALL the Jewish legal requirements established by generations of Rabbis, and their interpretations of the fine points of the Torah, and Jewish tradition!
But Christ Himself had already ruled on these points, in actuality. The Pharisees accused His disciples of breaking the law of Moses by transgressing the “traditions of the elders”
(Matt.15:1-2). However, Jesus hurled their accusation back into their own teeth, saying, “Why do you also transgress the law of God by your tradition?”.(verse 3). He went on to say, “Thus you have made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition” (v.6).
In other words, the Jews over time had added so many “halachic” principles and rules, in their legislation, in interpreting the Law of Moses, that they had strayed from the very Law itself and had developed a legal system which, in reality, was contrary to and in violation of the spirit of the original Torah, or law of God!
[CONTINUED]
[CONTINUED]
The argument, then, was not over the law of God itself – called the “law of Moses” in the Scriptures, because it was first codified and laid out in full during the time of Moses, and through the revelation God gave to His servant Moses (see Ezra 7:6, 10). It was over the “traditions” the Pharisees added to the Law, and their perversions of the Law!
Now, let us continue the story in Acts 15. After considering this matter fully, the apostles decided that the Pharisaical believers were dead wrong! Conversion to Judaism, indicated by requiring Gentile believers to be circumcised and keep the entire law of Moses (including the traditions of the elders), was NOT necessary for salvation!
But notice. After making this fundamental, paramount decision, the apostles then decided to write a general letter to the Gentile believers throughout the Roman Empire, a very pointed epistle. James, the brother of Christ, and the apostle over the Jerusalem church, declared: “Therefore I judge that we should not trouble those from among the Gentiles who are turning to God, but that we write to them to abstain from things polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from things strangled, and from blood. For Moses has had throughout many generations those who preach him in every city, BEING READ IN THE SYNAGOGUES EVERY SABBATH DAY” (Acts 15:19-21).
What is this? Why did James stress only these commandments? Was he ignoring or neglecting the laws against murder, stealing, taking God’s name in vain, coveting, bearing false witness, Sabbath breaking – many of the very Ten Commandments?
Of course not! When we read this entire passage IN CONTEXT, we see that first of all, James is singling out specific issues which Gentile brethren would be confronted with in their local communities! In Gentile society, in those days, idolatrous pollutions were rampant, sexual immorality and promiscuity were also very commonplace, and meats containing blood – improperly killed – were the norm.
God forbids His people to get involved in any sort of idol worship, sexual promiscuity, and His dietary laws were the first thing He stressed to ancient Israel as to how they were to be “different” from Gentile nations – how they were to be “holy” and set apart as a holy nation unto God (Lev.7:27; 11:1-47). Since these things were so common in Gentile society, James felt it advisable to give special prominence to warning the Gentile brethren to avoid these sorts of contaminations and spiritual pollutions.
But notice, now! James went on to explain WHY it was unnecessary to mention all the other laws of God, which also should be observed, because, as he said, these other laws were already being preached EVERY SABBATH DAY, in the synagogues throughout the Empires, which both converted Jews and Gentiles were then attending!
James literally said that the law of Moses – that is, the law of God – was being “read in the synagogue every sabbath day” (Acts 15:21).
Why would he even bring this up unless the point he is making is that the Gentile brethren would be HEARING this instruction from the rest of the law of God every Sabbath day, in the synagogue!

NY radical left Socialist Ocasio-Cortez, soon to be a Member of the U S House of Reps, allegedly "stiffed" her co-worker by not properly dividing $560 in tips. Instead, the wannabe "POTUS" (according to her own Mother) gave her only $50, which was then reluctantly increased to $100 after a complaint was filed with the manager.
If true, this rightly illustrates that the Liberal/Left are the most generous people on earth, provided they give away other people's money.

How are we to understand the admonition of Paul not to let anyone "judge" us by what we eat or drink, or in regard to religious festivals, New Moon celebrations, or the Sabbath? These things, Paul said, are a shadow of things to come, but the reality is found in Christ.
Are the Biblical Holy Days and Dietary Laws ABOLISHED?
Can we by any stretch of the imagination conclude from this verse that the Sabbaths and
Festivals of God and His Dietary Laws are done away with?
What precisely did Paul say here? Was it simply not to allow ANY MAN to sit in judgment of us? Paul himself did not allow men to sit in judgment of him. He wrote, "Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ" (Gal.1:20).
Further, Paul wrote to the Corinthians, "I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, i do not even judge myself. My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me.
Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait till the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of men's hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God" (I Cor. 4:3-5).
Clearly, the opinions of men are not what really count. We should not be overly concerned with the opinions of men, or peers, concerning how or what we eat or drink, or in connection with how we observe the Holy Days, Sabbaths, new moons, and the like. Rather, it is only God's Word that counts, for it is the Word of God which will judge each one of us.
As Paul wrote to the Romans, "You, then, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God's judgment seat". (Rom 14:10)
Paul says in the beginning of this chapter, "Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on disputable matters. One man's faith allows him to eat everything, but another man, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables" (Rom.14:1-2).
This is the same kind of thing Paul is addressing in Colossians 2:17. Rather than disputing and arguing, over such mundane matters as food and drink, we should love and accept one another, leaving judgment to God. As Paul wrote, "For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit" (verse 17).
We should not be sitting in judgment of each other concerning our eating and drinking habits. Nor should we be judging one another in regard to disputable matters involving how we observe the annual Festivals of God, new moons, or Sabbath days.
IN NO WAY do these verses REMOTELY suggest or show that the Festivals, new moons, or Sabbaths of God, are done away with - any more than eating and drinking have been abolished!
The dietary prescriptions found in Colossians 2:26 do NOT refer to the laws of clean and unclean foods given in the Word of God (Lev.11; Deut.14). Rather, the context of Colossians shows that these food regulations are those prescribed by human philosophy and Gnostic asceticism or Hellenistic syncretism. These restrictions involve such rules as "Do not handle," "Do not taste," "Do not touch." These are ascetic formulas designed to promote the self-abasement of the flesh and severity toward the body. Such notions are foreign to the Scriptures, and are generally derived from the pagan concept of the flesh as being evil and the soul "immortal" and "pure." The "dualistic" concept of the soul and the body leads one to despise the body and the material world in order to attain a higher "fulfilment." Such ascetics also consider marriage as evil and promote celibacy, something God never commanded or designed (see I Tim.4:1-3).
Writes Bacchiocchi:
"The pagan reasons for practicing asceticism and fasting were many. It was believed, for instance, that fasting prepared a person to receive a divine revelation. The belief in the transmigration of souls apparently motivated abstinence from animal meat, since eating it was regarded as a form of 'cannibalism.' Others were led to asceticism by their dualistic view of the world. In the case of the 'philosophy' of Colossians, the dietary taboos and the observance of sacred times were apparently regarded as an expression of subjection to and worship of the 'elements of the universe' (Col.2:20, 18)" (p.354).
Pagan asceticism and taboos! These practices had NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with the Laws and Commandments of GOD, which were ordained FOREVER.

"Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin." Romans 3:20
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8,9
"Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and the renewing of the Holy Ghost: Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life." Titus 3: 5-7
There are only two religions in all the world. The true one is anchored in God's sovereign grace, whereby, Christ's righteousness and forgiveness is imputed upon His chosen people. ALL of the religions of the world are based upon what MAN must do in order to somehow justify himself with whatever his perception of God might be.
If anyone seeks to stand upon their OWN "righteousness," based upon obedience to the commandments, they will surely fail. Why? Because Christ clearly taught that you can be "righteous" appearing on the outside, and yet, full of sin on the inside. Without Him, and Him alone, you are standing upon your own false righteousness.
PS: Over the course of many years, I have dealt with a number of people that are caught up in false religion. Virtually all have one thing in common; they all declare their "righteousness" based upon their being a "good" religious person! My only plea is in the finished work, through His shed blood, of Jesus Christ. Anything else is nothing other than a false foundation that is built upon shifting sand.
The Power of LIVING FAITH!
What is the KEY to having REAL faith in God and in Christ? Do you know what real faith is? Do you know how you can develop MORE life-sustaining spiritual FAITH in your life? Why do you sometimes feel so empty, powerless, spiritually weak? How can you come to possess REAL DYNAMIC FAITH in God and in Christ?
Jesus Christ declared to His disciples, “Verily, verily (or, most assuredly), I say unto you, He that BELIEVETH ON ME, the works that I do (including performing miracles, and great healings!) SHALL HE DO ALSO; and GREATER WORKS THAN THESE shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask IN MY NAME (there is awesome POWER in the name of Jesus Christ, when used rightly), that will I DO, that the Father may be glorified in the Son” (John 14:12-13). Jesus went on, “If ye shall ask ANYTHING in my name, I will DO IT!” (verse 14).
In the tumultuous days of the early Church, the power of God was evident in the lives of the apostles. “And by the hands of the apostles were many SIGNS AND WONDERS WROUGHT among the people . . . Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the SHADOW OF
PETER passing by might overshadow some of them. There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: AND THEY WERE HEALED EVERY ONE” (Acts 5: 12-16).
There was awesome spiritual POWER present in the early Church of God! The apostles had FAITH. But why has the Church lost that power? What happened to it after the days of the apostles? What happened to the kind of FAITH they had? Why is it generally missing in the Church today?
What IS Faith?
The apostle Paul declared, “Now Faith IS the substance [margin, “realization”] of things hoped for, the evidence [or, confidence] of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible” (Heb.11:1-3).
Faith is the substance or reality of belief – conviction – assurance. Faith is BELIEVING that what God says in His Word is TRUE, and can be relied upon – even unto death! Job expressed this thought and conviction when he said, “Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him” (Job 13:15). That shows REAL faith, doesn’t it?!
Job also declared in persuaded conviction, “For I KNOW that my Redeemer lives, and He shall stand at last upon the earth; and after my skin is destroyed, this I know, that in my flesh I shall see God, whom I shall see for myself, and my eyes shall behold, and not another” (Job 19:25-27). Job was firmly convinced of the existence of God, and believed that he would see Him one day, and be redeemed and saved by Him.
Faith then is simply belief, or strong conviction, that what God says is true and what He says He will do, He will do without doubt or question!
But how can we increase our faith?
The KEYS to Greater Faith
The apostle Paul gives us the fundamental key to greater faith and conviction. He wrote, “For whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, ‘How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peach, who bring glad tidings of good things”. (Rom.10:13-15)
Paul concludes, “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” (verse 17).
Christ Himself put it this way: “SEARCH the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me” (John 5:39). In other words, STUDY the Bible! Pour over it! Meditate upon it daily, constantly! This is the way to increase your faith!
As King David wrote, “Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he MEDITATES day and night”! (Psalm 1:1-2).

Anon 7:09PM,
First of all, you’ve taken John 5:39 out of context, for, in context, Jesus is criticizing the Pharisees for their false understanding in “searching the Scriptures”. They failed to understand that the Scriptures, aka “Moses”, testify to and about Jesus. As Jesus says in 5:40 they are, “Not willing to come to me in order to have life” (my translation, as word-for-word as possible). And, it is this misunderstanding of “Moses” that will be the Pharisees downfall, as Jesus points out in John 5:45-47.
Now going back to whether dietary laws are in effect, Jesus implicitly declares they are not in Mark 7:18-19. The final clause in Mark 7:19 is most literally cleansing all [the] foods [plural] (katharizōn panta ta brōmata), which is a parenthetical remark by the writer of the Gospel, summarizing Jesus’ words here.
Moreover, in Peter’s vision in Acts 10:9-16 he is instructing to rise, kill and eat what he sees, to which he replies, “By no means, Lord [or “lord”],for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean”. The voice replies, “That which God has cleansed you do not make common” (again, as literal as possible).
Sure, the ultimate meaning here may be construed as figuratively applying to the Gentiles if we don’t consider the broader context of Scripture as a whole; however, in light of Mark 7:18-19, I hardly think that’ll do. The Jerusalem Council (Acts 15) should be read with all this in mind.

Peter’s Testimony Is Significant
Can we find other biblical evidence that this view is correct, that Jesus never changed the biblical food laws? We find a telling event from the life of Peter well after Jesus’ death and resurrection.
Peter is a central figure in the early Church. Jesus charged Peter to strengthen the brethren (Luke 22:32). Peter delivered a powerful sermon that led to the conversion of thousands (Acts 2:14-41). His boldly claiming the name of Christ resulted in the miraculous healing of a lame man. He powerfully preached on repentance to those who gathered to witness the miracle (Acts 3:1-26). Later the mere passing of Peter’s shadow over the sick resulted in dramatic healings (Acts 5:15).
Surely Peter would have understood something as fundamental as whether Jesus had repealed the laws of clean and unclean meat. Yet, years after Christ’s death and resurrection, when he experienced a vision of unclean animals accompanied by a voice telling him to “kill and eat,” notice Peter’s spontaneous response: “Not so, Lord! For I have never eaten anything common or unclean” (Acts 10:14, emphasis added throughout).
Ironically, many believe the purpose of this vision was to do away with the dietary restrictions regarding clean and unclean meats. Overlooked is the significance of Peter’s initial response. He obviously did not consider these laws as having been rescinded by Christ!
This strange vision came to Peter three times, yet he still “wondered within himself what this vision which he had seen meant”. (Acts 10:16-17) and “thought about the vision” (Acts 10:19). Peter did not jump to conclusions as too many do today. He already knew what the vision did not mean. Later God revealed the TRUE meaning: “God has shown me that I should not call any MAN common or unclean” (Acts 10:28).
Peter came to realize that the significance of the vision was that God was opening the way of salvation to gentiles (non-Israelites), so Peter shortly thereafter baptized the first uncircumcised gentiles God called into the Church (Acts 10:34-35; Acts 10:45-48). Peter was NEVER to eat unclean animals, but he did learn this vital lesson in the plan of God.
Lessons For Today
The moral of this story is that food laws and righteousness are not mutually exclusive. God gave His food laws for sound reasons. True righteousness entails submission and obedience to all of God’s Word (Psalms 119:172; Matthew 4:4; Matthew 5:17-19).

Ok, let's cut rate to the chase. What did Jesus mean in Mark 7:18-19? Simple question.
The Example of Abraham
Abraham was a key example of faith. He was known as the “father of the faithful.” “He believed God,” Paul says, “and it was accounted to him for righteousness”. (Rom.4:3). Abraham believed God first – so then he did what God said to do! God told him to leave the land of Babylon, and to go Canaan. So Abraham went. He did not argue, or hesitate. Later in his life, God told Him to go and sacrifice his only beloved son, Isaac, the son of promise – as a “test” of his faith. Again, Abraham believed God, had faith in Him, and “rose early in the morning” to obey (Gen.22:3).
Notice the faith of Abraham! Paul said of him, “Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham [who obey God without “seeing” because of their faith in Him], who is the father of us all. As it is written, ‘I have made you a father of many nations’) in the presence of Him whom he believed—God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did; who, contrary to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of
many nations, according to what was spoken, ‘So shall your descendants be.’
“And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb. He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, and being FULLY CONVINCED that what He had promised He was ALSO ABLE to perform” (Rom.4:16-21).
The King James Version has it, “He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; and being FULLY PERSUADED that, what He had promised, he was able also to perform."
Consider this man of faith. Notice how his faith wrought with his works and deeds. James explained, “Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? Do you see that FAITH was working together with his works, and BY WORKS WAS FAITH MADE PERFECT?”. (James 2:21-22). James concludes, “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD also” (v.26).
Our obedience to God evidences our faith, and enables our faith to grow greater!
Faith without obedience is like a dead mackerel. It is USELESS – a “dead” faith – DEAD as a doornail!

"Jesus is simply stating here that any dirt or other incidental impurities not removed through elaborate hand-washing will be purged out by the human digestive system in a manner that has no bearing on the heart and mind of a person. Since spiritual purification involves the heart, ceremonial washings are ineffective and unnecessary in preventing spiritual defilement."

(Again I must emphasize to the blogspot readers: This article should be READ in full to GET the proper and complete full understanding.)
Piling on words by continuing to refer to this document over and over is merely an attempt at obscuring the clear words at the end of Mark 7:19 "cleansing all foods". The only textual variants in this clause are variations in verb tense, not materially affecting meaning--and these variants have very little support (there aren't many manuscripts supporting the given variants).

Hi Craig.
"I" did not quote John 5:39 "out of context". If out of context it WAS then that would be ascribed to the author of that article.
Nevertheless I DO see your point and I would say that you ARE partially correct, however that portion IS quoted in accord with the principle laid out in such places as: "Now the Berean Jews were of more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true."
Acts 17:11- NIV
That being said the author SHOULD have used another scripture to make that legitimate point. You're right.
http://biblehub.com/acts/17-11.htm
Let me add more context to Jesus’ words in Mark 7. The issue begins with the Pharisee’s complaint that the disciples didn’t ‘adequately’ wash their hands before eating (presumably “clean” food) in 7:1-4. The crux of their complaint is found in their question to Jesus in 7:5, “Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat with defiled hands?” (ESV). Jesus chastises them for putting more emphasis in their extra-Biblical “tradition” (7:8-13). Then Jesus makes a categorical statement that nothing that goes into a man makes him unclean, implying that not just ‘dirty’ hands while eating will not make a man ‘unclean’, but that absolutely nothing “unclean” entering a man makes a man ‘unclean’. Rather, it is that which comes out of a man that makes him ‘unclean’, i.e. his words, which come out of his heart (7:14-16).
Later, the disciples asked for some clarification (7:17), but why would we think they didn’t understand the part about Jesus referring to the extra-Biblical “tradition”? He made that abundantly clear when he reiterated “tradition” (7:8-13). It would seem more likely they wanted to make sure they fully understood what He meant by “nothing”. In response, Jesus makes it quite clear that “nothing” meant just that (7:18), for what goes into a man’s mouth “does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and is eliminated”, and the words of the Gospel writer “cleansing all foods” added further clarification. Absolutely nothing entering a man will make him unclean, and, further, there should no longer be food considered “unclean”. The best way to understand 7:18-19 is to see that He said… governs all that follows, such that the last clause should be construed He said to them, “Are you so dull? Do you not see….” [thus] cleansing all foods. In other words, just consider it as “He said” were placed between Jesus’ words in 7:18-19 and the narrator’s clause at the end: “…,”He said, cleansing all foods.

Anon 10:55 PM,
I think it clear when I stated “you” I meant your quoting of the author of the piece, as it was you why was making your point by quoting the author. In any case, I’m glad you see the author’s error. I hope you’ll also see that the author in the article regarding clean/unclean food is mistaken regarding Mark 7.
In order to keep things as civil as possible here the entire article apparently needs to be posted rather than talking around it. Very well:
The Surprise Sayings Of Jesus Christ
Did Jesus Declare All Meats Clean?
By Larry Walker
Many assume Jesus' statements in Mark 7 did away with the dietary restrictions recorded in the Old Testament. How should we understand Christ's words?
God Gave His Food Laws For Sound Reasons
In this series of articles we have examined statements of Jesus Christ that when understood correctly are surprisingly different in meaning from the way they are commonly understood. In the case of dietary restrictions recorded in the Bible, the surprise may be the result of understanding not just what Jesus said but what He did not say in the Gospel of Mark.
Many believe that in His encounter with the Pharisees recorded in Mark 7:1-23, Jesus abrogated the laws of clean and unclean meats revealed in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14. In fact, many modern translations of the New Testament insert additional words into the text of Mark 7:19 to reflect this understanding. For example, the New International Version ends the verse with: “(In saying this, Jesus declared all foods ‘clean’).”
The New King James Version has “thus purifying all foods” and includes the marginal explanation: “NU [an abbreviation for the text used by many New Testament translations] sets off the final phrase as Mark’s comment, that Jesus has declared all foods clean.”
But is this textual variation correct? Does it capture the meaning of the passage in question? What exactly did Jesus mean by His statement?
Context Provides The Answer
One of the foundational principles for understanding a scriptural passage is to examine the context. What is the topic of discussion here?
We should first notice that the subject is food in general, not which meats are clean or unclean . The Greek word broma, used in Mark 7:19, simply means food. An entirely different Greek word, kreas, is used in the New Testament where meat—animal flesh—is specifically intended (see Romans 14:21; 1 Corinthians 13:8). So this passage concerns the general subject of food rather than meat. But a closer look shows that more is involved.
[Continued on Pg 2]
[Pg 2]
The first two verses help us understand the context: “Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes came together to Him, having come from Jerusalem. Now when they saw some of His disciples eat bread with defiled, that is, with unwashed hands, they found fault” (Mark 7:1-2). They asked Jesus, “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?”. (Mark 7:5).
Now we see the subject further clarified. It concerns eating “with unwashed hands.” Why was this of concern to the scribes and Pharisees?
The covenant God made with Israel at Mount Sinai was based on many laws and other instructions that ensured ritual purity. Jewish observance, however, often went beyond these in embracing the “oral law” or “tradition of the elders”—passed on by word of mouth and consisting of many additional man-made requirements and prohibitions tacked onto God’s laws. Mark 7:3-4 provides a brief explanation of the specific practice the Pharisees and scribes were referring to in this account: “For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they wash their hands in a special way, holding the tradition of the elders …”
Notice that food laws are not in question here. The topic is ritual purity based on the religious traditions of the oral law. The disciples were being criticized for not following the proper procedure of ceremonial hand-washing prescribed by these revered religious traditions.
[Continued on Pg 3]
[Pg 3]
The Jewish New Testament Commentary, explaining the background of Mark 7:2-4, offers a description of this custom: “Mark’s explanation of a … ritual hand-washing, in these verses corresponds to the details set forth in Mishna tractate Yadayim [the Mishna is a later written version of the oral tradition]. In the marketplace one may touch ceremonially impure things; the impurity is removed by rinsing up to the wrist. Orthodox Jews today observe [ritual hand-washing] before meals. The rationale for it has nothing to do with hygiene but is based on the idea that ‘a man’s home is his Temple,’ with the dining table his altar, the food his sacrifice and himself the cohen (priest). Since the Tanakh [Old Testament] requires cohanim [priests] to be ceremonially pure before offering sacrifices on the altar, the Oral Torah requires the same before eating a meal” (David Stern, 1995).
By the time of Christ many had made these additional practices a top priority and in so doing sometimes overlooked and even violated the fundamental principles of the law of God (Matthew 23:1-4, Matthew 23:23-28).
Spiritual Principle Of Purification
After decrying the hypocrisy of this and other religious traditions and practices of the day, Jesus gets to the heart of the matter. He explains that what defiles a person (in the eyes of God) comes not from the outside —by what one puts into his mouth—but from within (Mark 7:15).
He said it is far more important to concentrate on what comes out of your heart than what you put into your mouth. Jesus explains: “For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, licentiousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a man” (Mark 7:21-23).
Some of these same qualities are listed in Galatians 5:19-21 as “works of the flesh.” They are contrasted with the “fruit of the Spirit” (Mark 7:22-23). “Love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness [and] self-control” are qualities of a spiritually purified heart.
[Continued Pg 4]
[Pg 4]
The ceremonial washings and purification practices of the Old Covenant were physical representations of the spiritual purification to be offered in the New Covenant (Hebrews 9:11-14). Hebrews 9:23 tells us: “Therefore it was necessary that the copies of the things in the heavens [referring to the tabernacle, altar, priests, etc.] should be purified with these [ceremonial purifications], but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.” So the apostle Paul writes that Jesus “gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works” (Titus 2:14).
“Blessed are the pure in heart” is one of the fundamental teachings of Christ (Matthew 5:8).
Unwashed Hands Don’t Defile The Heart
In Mark 7 Jesus explains that ceremonial washing is not necessary for spiritual purity or sound spiritual health. He points out that “whatever enters a man from outside cannot defile him, because it does not enter his heart but his stomach, and is eliminated, thus purifying all foods”. (Mark 7:18-19).
Jesus is simply stating here that any dirt or other incidental impurities not removed through elaborate hand-washing will be purged out by the human digestive system in a manner that has no bearing on the heart and mind of a person. Since spiritual purification involves the heart, ceremonial washings are ineffective and unnecessary in preventing spiritual defilement.
[Continued Pg 5]
[Pg 5]
Several Bible scholars recognize the error of interpreting this passage as an abrogation of the laws of clean and unclean meats. Certain grammatical factors, as well as the context of Scripture, determine how to properly translate verse 19. The Greek word translated “purifying” is a participle and must agree in grammatical gender with the noun it describes. Because this participle has a masculine ending, it cannot refer to “stomach,” which is in the feminine gender in Greek. Thus many scholars instead relate “purifying” back to “He said.”
However, another alternative provides a better explanation. The expression “is eliminated” in the New King James Version is a euphemistic rendering of what the original King James Version translates as “goeth out into the draught.” “Draught” (draft) is an archaic way to translate the Greek word aphedron, which means “a place where the human waste discharges are dumped, a privy, sink, toilet” (BibleWorks software). Aphedron is a masculine-gender noun, so “purifying” can refer to the end result of human waste, the toilet.
The Commentary on the New Testament: Interpretation of Mark explains the passage on the basis of this pertinent information: “ The translation … ‘This he said, making all meats clean’ makes the participial clause [‘purifying all foods’] a remark by Mark … that Jesus makes all foods clean— a remark … that we cannot accept … He is explaining to his disciples how no food defiles a man … As far as this thought is concerned, Jesus expresses it already in the preceding clause: ‘and goes out into the privy.’ What he now adds is that the privy [the end result of the digestive process] ‘makes all food clean’ … for all foods have their course through the body only, never touch the heart, and thus end in the privy … Since the disciples are so dense, the Lord is compelled to give them so coarse an explanation. In this, however, he in no way abrogates the Levitical laws concerning foods“. (R.C.H. Lenski, pp. 297-298, emphasis added).
The Jewish New Testament Commentary , in its note on verse 19, summarizes well the overall meaning of this passage: “ Yeshua [Jesus] did not, as many suppose, abrogate the laws of kashrut [kosher] and thus declare ham kosher! Since the beginning of the chapter the subject has been ritual purity … and not kashrut at all! There is not the slightest hint anywhere that foods in this verse can be anything other than what the Bible allows Jews to eat, in other words, kosher foods …
“Rather, Yeshua is continuing his discussion of spiritual prioritizing (v. 11). He teaches that tohar (purity) is not primarily ritual or physical, but spiritual (vv. 14-23). On this ground he does not entirely overrule the Pharisaic/rabbinic elaborations of the laws of purity, but he does demote them to subsidiary importance.“
