Believing What They Tell Us, or Not
The World We Leave for Future Generations Will Depend on Our Decisions
What’s Going On in Israel? Who Do you Trust?
I have no idea what is happening in the war between Israel and Hamas. Neither do I know the full truth of the October 7 Hamas operation, and I doubt you do either. We keep hearing the official narrative. We can’t escape it. But are we going to trust media reports arriving from the same MSM that lies to us 24/7/365 on everything else?
Remember, the predominant sources informing us on the Gaza conflict are part of the same corporate/government media monolith continuing to sell us that 2020 was the cleanest election in US history, that Ukraine’s leadership is virtuous, that Putin attacked Ukraine unprovoked. It is the same combination of institutions which, day after day, publicly convicted President Donald Trump of colluding with Russia in 2016, even the same collection of information fabricators which after 9/11 sold us on the story that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction and was preparing to use them. A list of lies promulgated toward the American people by their government, including corporate mainstream media, would have no end. The corporate mainstream media in America and around the western world is nothing if it is not a wholesale prevaricator of 3-letter agency propaganda. But now, almost laughingly, they want us to believe that the facts they inform us of concerning the events in southern Israel and Gaza, stemming from those occurring on October 7, are unassailable.
Soon after that day’s events, out trotted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu before the cameras. Surely we could trust Bibi. Unfortunately, the Israeli head of government would be the last person Americans should trust. As I pointed out a few weeks ago, in 2002 Bibi Netanyahu traveled to Washington, his purpose to deliberately lie to Congress, contending at that time, “There is no question whatsoever, Saddam is seeking and is working and is advancing toward the development of nuclear weapons, NO QUESTION WHATSOEVER,” further insisting, “If you take out Saddam’s regime, I guarantee that you will have an enormous positive reverberations on the region.” Arguably, without Netanyahu’s testimony, President George W. Bush would never have been able to apply congressional Authority to Use Military Force (AUMF), enacted on the heels of 9/11, to attack Iraq under Saddam Hussein, who we know had nothing to do with 9/11. That resolution has since become America’s permission slip to wage perpetual war against anyone it desires, practically anywhere around the globe, should an elected president declare a terrorist to be in their midst. In so doing, arguably, Bibi Netanyahu’s 2002 utterances have contributed more to the death and destruction of innocents in the Middle East and elsewhere, and simultaneously, to the profits of American and western defense contractors, than any similar statements by practically anyone in decades. We must not forget those kinds of misbegotten declarations.
America’s Investment in Israeli Security Came to No Avail on October 7
Speaking of profits for American and western defense contractors due to tensions arising between Israel and Hamas, how is it that the American-supplied-and-paid-for Israeli defense shield failed so catastrophically on October 7?
Americans should be asking why their grandchildren’s grandchildren are being forced into debt, decades before they are born, to pay for ineffective defense systems for a nation, not even America, only to have it fail miserably on October 7 and be told a larger investment is now necessary?
As I said, I really don’t know what’s going on over there. I do not believe anyone holding much value in reporting truth knows much either. Yet, it is apparently true that the same Benjamin Netanyahu, who lied to our congress, convincing them to commence what has since become perpetual war against all comers on a worldwide stage, now, 21 years later, undertakes to prosecute a perpetual war of his own in Gaza, paid for, once again, by you and me, a couple of American chumps.
I don’t like any of this. Can you tell? I expect, if warring participants had to work to pay for their own weapons, the world would be a much more peaceful place to live.
Americans Turning Away From Blanket Support of Israel
Recent polls indicate America’s traditionally-strong support for Israel may be waning as the violence in Gaza some describe as “genocide” continues. Here are some of today’s headlines:
It’s ironic to equate the Jewish State with the term, ‘genocide’ knowing that same state is the party on offense, is it not?
Frankenstein Monsters Regularly Turning on Their Creators
So, I have a question for you: Why is it that the same Islamic organizations America and its western allies, including Israel, work to create, inevitably turn against their creators? Who assumes their cost of their operations? Those are very good questions. The most famous of those organizations, of course, would be al Qaeda, you know, the American nemesis created during the Carter Administration, who on 9/11, as reported by the US Government and supported by MSM, defeated the entire North American Air Defense System, operating out of a cave in Tora Bora, rendering three New York City skyscrapers to pulverized ash by the end of the day, resulting in a suitable excuse for a perpetual American surveillance state and war on terror? Yes, THAT al Qaeda.
And now, similarly, Hamas, originally created by Israeli intelligence, an organization designed to compete for Palestinian favor against the influence of Yasser Arafat, defeated Israel’s much heralded “Iron Dome” defense system, paid for by you and me, paving the opportunity for Netanyahu to commence military operations in Gaza, again, apparently with no end.
And, who can forget ISIS, another Islamic militant organization, which if you believe those same sources, manifested out-of-thin-air in the western Iraqi province of Anbar, not coincidentally quite near Iraq’s border with Jordan, so close, in fact, ISIS could have easily originated on the Jordan side of the border…if you catch my drift…
To that regard, in 2016, then presidential candidate Donald Trump spoke the truth of ISIS’ creation on the campaign trail. He informed the crowd, “Barack and Hillary unleashed ISIS across the world.” He was right, speaking a truth certainly known to me at the time, and which I spoke about to a crowd in Dawsonville in the following video from September 2014.
In the video, I explain exactly what the 2003 US-led war against Saddam Hussein was about, connecting the dots with documentation. Trump was right. Barack and Hillary unleashed ISIS across the world, a truth you have never heard from the same MSM reporting to you the narrative of the present Israeli conflict with Hamas. What else are they not telling us about the present situation?
Did you never wonder how all of those Toyota battle wagons appeared out of nothing in the desert of western Iraq? The local Anbar Toyota dealership must have made a killing the day that order was placed. Pardon the pun, I couldn’t resist.
And how did this particular Toyota battle wagon, previously owned by Mark-1 Plumbing in Houston, Texas, end up being used by ISIS to attack Iraq and Syria?
Stop Allowing Yourself to be Fooled
The American people have been incredibly fooled, and they continue to be fooled. Consider the following question: Given the evidence, why would anyone expect the American Government and corporate media would ever tell them the truth, about anything important? Perhaps we should understand and accept the fact that it is not in our “owners’” interests for us, the American people, to know what is truly going on in this world. So, why would anyone expect the government or their corporate mouthpieces to level with them? It’s truth time, folks. Your government is not run by your elected representatives. Your government is run by representatives of profit-seeking corporations and power-seeking financial interests. Your government provides you with an illusion of public influence over state and national elections, but that is all it is, an ILLUSION. Money creates viable candidates for public office. If you have enough money, you can buy a political office. That truth has been proven over and over again.
Geopolitical events are rarely, if ever, accurately described by official government/MSM narratives. Here’s 4-Star General Wesley Clark telling you every way he would be allowed that ISIS was NOT an organic Islamic movement, but instead a state-created, state-supported, band of Islamic mercenaries for hire.
Clark was right. The only thing he does not tell you is that the predominant state influence behind ISIS’ creation happened to be same one Trump informed you about during his 2016 presidential campaign, the US State Department under Obama and Hillary. Hmmm…when have we seen Wesley Clark lately?
Backstory of ISIS
After murdering Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi in 2011, about which Hillary Clinton famously cackled, “We came, we saw, he died,” with Ambassador Christopher Stephens acting as shipping agent, US State Department intermediaries transported collected weapons previously supplied to the US-supported “Libyan rebels,” shipping them out of Benghazi, reportedly through Turkey, to end up at bases in the eastern Jordan desert, where Islamic mercenaries were being trained to launch as ‘ISIS’ against both Syria and Iraq (Remember, ISIS is an acronym for Islamic State in Iraq and Syria). Obviously, the so-called “Libyan rebels” did not care for their weapons being taken from them. Ambassador Stevens, an unlikely arms smuggler, paid a similar price as Qaddafi the year before.
Prior to the initial ISIS attacks against Iraq and Syria, reports published in America, Great Britain and Germany indicated that Islamic mercenaries were at that time being trained by the US in secret bases in eastern Jordan.
After ISIS was “unleashed,” Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki called out America’s regional allies for supplying and training ISIS mercenaries in the western Iraqi province of Anbar.
Former Director of the US Defense Intelligence Agency, General Michael Flynn, fired by Obama, blew the whistle on the ISIS operation, speaking during an ALJAZEERA interview, alleging that the creation of ISIS was a “willful decision” by the Obama Administration, forming the basis for candidate Trump’s later statements.
Does anyone now wonder why General Flynn, Trump’s original choice for National Security Advisor, had to be removed from the White House and silenced?
Why Is All This History Important Today?
So, why am I sharing all this ancient history with you now? Surely this is all water over the dam at this point, is it not?
Not at all. Nothing has changed. The same people are in charge, pushing the same agendas, using the same false narratives, possessing the same motivations, profits and power. Similar to the events and circumstances I relate above, we continue to see private, corporate controllers of the levers of American and western governmental power, using the wealth piled up by past and future earnings of their respecting peoples, to further their own agendas, enslaving entire populations to pay for their exploits. Indeed, nothing has changed.
Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. Given these examples, which represent a drop in the bucket of those available, why would anyone trust the news coming out of the Biden government or American mainstream media concerning events in Israel and Gaza? You got me.
So, believe what they tell you, or don’t. It’s up to you. But the answer to the question whether the American people will continue to believe the narratives continually funneled into their minds, or not, will largely influence the kind of world future generations will inherit.
Hank, I appreciate you.
“For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.” 1 Corinthians 1:19 KJV
The Great Prostitute
17 One of the seven angels who had poured out the seven bowls came over and spoke to me. “Come with me,” he said, “and I will show you the judgment that is going to come on the great prostitute, who rules over many waters. 2 The kings of the world have committed adultery with her, and the people who belong to this world have been made drunk by the wine of her immorality.”
3 So the angel took me in the Spirit into the wilderness. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that had seven heads and ten horns, and blasphemies against God were written all over it. 4 The woman wore purple and scarlet clothing and beautiful jewelry made of gold and precious gems and pearls. In her hand she held a gold goblet full of obscenities and the impurities of her immorality. 5 A mysterious name was written on her forehead: “Babylon the Great, Mother of All Prostitutes and Obscenities in the World.” 6 I could see that she was drunk—drunk with the blood of God’s holy people who were witnesses for Jesus. I stared at her in complete amazement.
7 “Why are you so amazed?” the angel asked. “I will tell you the mystery of this woman and of the beast with seven heads and ten horns on which she sits. 8 The beast you saw was once alive but isn’t now. And yet he will soon come up out of the bottomless pit and go to eternal destruction. And the people who belong to this world, whose names were not written in the Book of Life before the world was made, will be amazed at the reappearance of this beast who had died.
9 “This calls for a mind with understanding: The seven heads of the beast represent the seven hills where the woman rules. They also represent seven kings. 10 Five kings have already fallen, the sixth now reigns, and the seventh is yet to come, but his reign will be brief.
11 “The scarlet beast that was, but is no longer, is the eighth king. He is like the other seven, and he, too, is headed for destruction. 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.”
15 Then the angel said to me, “The waters where the prostitute is ruling represent masses of people of every nation and language. 16 The scarlet beast and his ten horns all hate the prostitute. They will strip her naked, eat her flesh, and burn her remains with fire. 17 For God has put a plan into their minds, a plan that will carry out his purposes. They will agree to give their authority to the scarlet beast, and so the words of God will be fulfilled. 18 And this woman you saw in your vision represents the great city that rules over the kings of the world.” Revelation 17:1-18 NLT

Thanking you for this as you continue to swim upstream against the forces arrayed against your tireless and persistent efforts to educate “We, the People.”
Later and Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
