If you're one of those Americans who don't care, go here.

By Darren Weeks

Puppet president George W. Bush will address the nation on Sunday at 9:00 PM Eastern time to try to build support for the murdering exercise currently underway in Iraq.

According to news publications, most Americans now regard the Iraq mission as a "mistake". In all actuality, it wasn't a mistake at all. That's what Bush and his State Department handlers want you to believe.

Indeed, it was puppet Bush himself who recently declared in a speech before the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars that "much of the intelligence turned out to be wrong".

Faulty intelligence is a forgivable mistake; Iraq was no "mistake". It was a pre-meditated coup on a sovereign country, aimed at U.S./U.N./Israeli imperialism.

As Britain's Sunday Herald reported, Bush's handlers planned the Iraq regime changed before he became president.

The apparent perception that the administration's intervention in Iraq is a "mistake" is one that is deliberately generated by the elite's propaganda machine. The controlled media frequently reports on the so-called "faulty" intelligence which led to the war in Iraq.

There was no "faulty" intelligence. There was only a pre-meditated plan to take over Iraq, whether or not Saddam was in power.

Published in September 2000 — a full year prior to the war — was the report, Rebuilding America's Defenses from the Neocon think-tank Project for a New American Century. It proves that the whole war on terror was mapped out well before the "Pearl Harbor" that triggered the event. The purported "attacks" on New York and the Pentagon were needed to execute the plan.

The concept of Homeland Security was also pre-planned, as is evidenced in the Phase III Report of the U.S. Commission on National Security in the 21st Century, which was published in January 31, 2001 — a full seven months prior to 9/11.

These reports were taken directly from the official sources. They are not conspiracy theory. They are conspiracy FACT.

There is a ton of other evidence that could be cited about 9/11 being a pre-planned U.S. shadow government operation. We've covered it all in the past.

I could talk about how former Defense chief William Cohen, in an interview with the Army Times, laid out the plan that Americans would be forced to forfeit their liberty to save them from "terrorism".

That same year, the Justice Department had a booklet on terrorism in which they pictured the twin towers with a bullseye on it.

We could talk about how John Maresca, a UNOCAL oil executive testified before Congress in 1998 about how the Taliban needed to be overthrown in Afghanistan.

I could discuss the very cozy business relationship the Bushes have with the Bin Ladens. Also, the general in charge of the U.S. mission in Afghanistan admitted that catching Osama, a CIA operative, was not a part of the Afghan mission.

We could talk about why key people were warned not to fly on the morning of September 11th, yet they didn't pass the warnings on to Americans.

We could talk about how a high-ranking cabinet official of the British government resigned and then declared that 9/11 was a U.S. plot, or how a former economist with the Bush administration has expressed his own doubts.

There is so much evidence, I could go on and on. Anything we've outlined here is just the tip of the 9/11 iceberg. It barely scratches the surface of the mountains of evidence, both circumstantial and concrete, that prove that the U.S. government murdered its own as a pretense to invade and destroy other sovereign countries.

Faulty intelligence? Iraq was a "mistake"? Not hardly!

In recent speeches, Bush the Puppet has stated that 30,000 Iraqis have perished in the war. Official figures have the number of dead Americans at 2,150.

The Russian media has stated that the official number of dead Americans is being held artificially low by the Pentagon, worried that if the actual numbers were known, they would reap more anger by the American people.

Russian news sources have the number of American dead in Iraq at more than 9,000. And none of these tallies take into account all of those whose lives have been changed irreparably by the injuries they incurred, both physically and emotionally.

Whether the numbers are 2,000 or 9,000 or 30,000, they don't add up to a "mistake" or faulty intelligence.

What they add up to is a lot less innocent and a lot more sinister. It is the high crime of treason, committed on the American people, by officials of their own imperialist government. It is a silent, undeclared war that is being waged upon the people of the world by a few bloodthirsty, would-be despots, who control the levers and switches of the world's biggest superpower.

None of the magotry that comes out of the Puppet's mouth on Sunday night, will change that truth. We are ALL the targets in the war on terror.

I've just discovered... Target: WTO, an organized coalition of protestors who are purportedly against the World Trade Organization. The key word is "purportedly".

What's their beef with the WTO? They say it's a "capitalist" organization! Because it's supposedly "capitalist", it must be dismantled.

Why is it that protesters who mount to any kind of significant number are all Marxist socialists? These people are either controlled opposition, or they are extremely stupid; more than likely they are both.

Saying that the WTO is a capitalist entity displays an ignorance so profound, it defies words.

The WTO is an arm of the United Nations, one of the most socialist entities ever known to man! It is because of the UN's socialist agenda, that our traitorous "leaders" have put policies into place that is sapping our country of both its wealth, and its ability to produce it.

Our so-called "capitalist" government, in cooperation with the so-called "capitalist" WTO, is taking away our money, our jobs, our technology, and our food, and sending it to the impoverished "developing" countries all over the globe.

We are being robbed!

We are working harder for less, while other countries are having the necessary infrastructure built, on our backs, to sustain their own local economies. It's called combatting poverty, UN-style.

So what you have with the WTO protesters, is a bunch of socialists that are protesting a socialist organization and agenda, while calling it "capitalist".

It's the Hegelian Dialectic. The other side always creates its own opposition so they can control it.

The real question that I have is: Where are all of the freedom-loving, patriotic Americans who love their country? Where are the real protesters? Why is it that the other side can organize for the destruction of "capitalism", while barely a whimper of protest is heard by real and proud Americans, as they are robbed, raped, plundered, humiliated, and murdered around the world by their government?

I don't talk a lot about the secret societies, as documentation for the subject appears to me to be very scarce. Without documentation, claims are very difficult to prove and, therefore, fail to offer much in the way of building credibility with the skeptics we try to awaken.

People have talked for years about the secret Masonic conspiracy to promote the New World Order. The Shadow Government elites, who control the leaders you think you've elected, are nearly all members of secret societies.

One of those secret societies is the Freemasons. The Masons have a long history that I won't go into at this time, but at the upper ranks of the Masonic hierarchy is a darkness of which few ever become aware.

Most people who get involved with secret societies like the Masons, are in fact good people. Good and deceived! Most remain completely unaware of the diabolical agenda of the organization of which they are a part.

However, at certain times, the brotherhood's true colors show through its rhetoric of benevolence.

One such example is the Nebraska Freemason's "CHIP" program.

According the Grand Lodge of Nebraska's web page, which I have mirrored on the Sweet Liberty site, "CHIP" is an acronym for "Child Identification Program".

The Nebraska Freemasons have formed a partnership with the Nebraska Sheriffs Association, the Nebraska Dental Association, the Nebraska Dental Hygienists Association, and the Nebraska Dental Assistant's Association. Why have they teamed up with all of these groups? Of course, they have the "safety" of your children in mind! At least that is what they say.

In reality, they are helping to get children used to being fingerprinted, having their DNA sampled, etc. Like the "wonderful" people at the Office of Homeland Security, they are doing it all for your child's own good.

The CHild Identification Program (CHIP) addresses the alarming fact that over 1,000,000 children are reported missing in the United States each year. In Nebraska, over 5,000 children were reported missing in the year 2000. While most are found, many are not. Also, the abduction of children is both under-reported and rapidly increasing in our society.

While they say that the information collected is given to the child's family, this doesn't negate the fact that the child has learned that providing fingerprints, DNA samples, retina scans, bite impressions, or any other type of biometric information to authorities must be okay. After all, Mom or Dad didn't have a problem with it.

Your biometric information is who you are. It isn't like a drivers license number, or a social security number, or even a name, all of which could potentially be changed. Your biometric information can never be changed. If it is stolen, you are stolen. It's like your virginity; once it's gone, you can never get it back.

Identity theft is already a major problem around the world. The technological age has made the criminals' intrusion into our private lives more and more of a threat. How much worse will it be for the next generation when you have several thousand of these ID kits laying around, getting lost or stolen?

The CHIP Kit includes the following:

Videotape: A brief videotape interview is worth a thousand still photos. The CHIP interview captures the appearance, speech, mannerisms, and other important personal characteristics of a child. It can be quickly distributed via the media to reach a huge audience. It is the cornerstone of CHIP.

Fingerprinting: Fingerprinting is a well-known means of identification. Everyone’s prints are unique. Resourceful parents keep fingerprints available should the need arise.

Toothprints bite impression is quick and easy. Teeth, like fingerprints, are unique. Even in a child who is losing and gaining teeth, a dental imprint gives both accurate and important information for identification purposes. Saliva on the Toothprint® also serves as a DNA sample for at least 3 years, but more importantly, serves as a scent tracer for recovery bloodhound dogs that can easily track saliva scent.

DNA Cheek Swab: The cheek swab provides DNA material for both mitochondrial and nuclear DNA matching for more than 20 years when properly frozen in a home freezer.

Digital Still Photograph: A digital still photo is printed for use in The Amber Alert System or, if needed, by other proper authorities. Only the parent or guardian receives the print. No photos or files are retained by the Freemasons or other sponsoring organizations.

Of course, no where on the page is there any explanation about how all of this private information is going to keep your child safe. With the possible exception of the video and photograph, the only "benefit" that this writer sees, is to aid the police in positively identifying your son or daughter AFTER he or she has been murdered. How will the "CHIP" kit PREVENT your child from being abducted or murdered?

The truth is, it won't. Only good parenting and teaching your child how to avoid dangerous situations will.

Parents, your children learn from YOUR ACTIONS. If you teach them not to hesitate when someone presents an ink pad for their fingers, or not to hesitate when someone produces a swap for their mouth, then they won't hesitate when it comes time to give all of that information over to the wonderful "protectors" at Government House who will place it in a REAL microchip and neatly insert it into your child's skin.

"It's all just to keep them safe." Stupid, stupid people!

I have asked Jackie Patru to take back the Wednesday broadcasts of Sweet Liberty every week. We need to keep her involved in broadcasting, and it takes the pressure off of me of having to pre-record a broadcast for Wednesday night.

The broadcasts for Monday and Tuesday are both live and I'll continue to hold down those two nights. Starting with this past Wednesday, Jackie will be hosting every Wednesday.

Next Tuesday, December 13th, I'll have as my guest for the first half hour, S. Fred Singer of the Science and Environmental Policy Project. We'll probably discuss so-called "global warming", the COP-11/MOP-1 conference in Montreal, among other environmental subjects.

I just learned from the United Nations' web site that December 2nd was the "International Day for Abolition of Slavery".

Sorry. I guess I didn't notice.

I was too busy trying to stop the slavery that the United Nations themselves is trying to impose upon us.

"Sustainable Development" is the UN term for population control. It is all-encompassing and it's global. When it's fully implemented, everything you do will be regulated, and no one will be able to do anything until the environmental consequences of such an action is considered.

In fact,Chapter 8 of Agenda 21 addresses "Integrating environment and development in decision-making". It says,

"The primary need is to integrate environmental and developmental decision-making processes. To do this, Governments should conduct a national review and, where appropriate, improve the processes of decision-making so as to achieve the progressive integration of economic, social and environmental issues in the pursuit of development that is economically efficient, socially equitable and responsible and environmentally sound."

If the globalists have their way, no developmental decision will be made, without considering the environmental consequences. It is for this reason we have the redevelopment of our cities underway.

Part of the implementation of "Sustainable Development" is "Smart Growth". The idea behind "Smart Growth" is that we humans are spreading out into the rural areas too much and we need to stop it. They call it "urban sprawl".

The pointy-head academics at many of America's universities, coupled with the socialists at the United Nations contend that there are a lot of "endangered" plants in the countryside. How on earth they ever make such a determination is beyond this writer's ability to discern. Just because they can't find a plant, does this mean it's endangered? And why should we be concerned about "endangered" plants? Would we even miss these plants if they disappeared?

But that's just the beginning.

In addition to the plants, they also say there are a lot of little furry creatures and bugs in rural areas. This is a very disturbing discovery! If furry creatures and bugs exist in rural areas, we humans might disturb those too. In fact, these "brilliant" scholars say that we are already endangering them.

Can it be true that if we make too much noise in the countryside, the furry little creatures might not be able to consumate their relationships? That's what we're told. Certainly we humans wouldn't want to interfere with the sex life of the Alabama Beach Mouse! No, sir.

Therefore, we cannot live in the rural areas anymore. There goes your house in the country.

According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, there are 1,272 threatened or endangered plants and animals in the United States. That number jumps to 1,868 worldwide. God help you if one of these are found on your property!

So cities must begin building up, rather than out. Human development must be moved up to the next level. Thoughts of The Jeffersons theme song come to mind. We're moving on up!

Your neighbors will live on top of you — literally. Work places will be built within walking distances of where you live. This is because they want you to quit driving your automobile.

The automobile. That's evil too!

According to the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, every time you climb behind the wheel of that gas-guzzling SUV, you cause global warming. There is no end to the damage that global warming causes on those little fuzzy plants and animals in the countryside. Things that are supposed to be hot, turn cold. Things that are supposed to be cold, turn hot. Never mind that none of this has ever been proven: Full speed ahead!

So, the well-being of the Big Eared Bat or the Columbian White-tailed Deer are to be put ahead of that of human beings. The animals have had their day in court, and have won!

One approach to Smart Growth is New Urbanism. The New Urbanist movement is certainly nothing new. In fact, most of the UN population control measures are just rehashed ideas from the past. They simply change the names and attempt to implement the failed policies of yesteryear.

Today, however, they are changing the landscape of America.

According to to town planners Andres Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, there are 13 principles which are defining elements of New Urbanism. If you see these in your community, it's a part of the implementation of "Sustainable Development":

1. The neighborhood has a discernible center. This is often a square or a green and sometimes a busy or memorable street corner. A transit stop would be located at this center.
   
   
2. Most of the dwellings are within a five-minute walk of the center, an average of roughly 2,000 feet.
   
   
3. There are a variety of dwelling types—usually houses, rowhouses and apartments—so that younger and older people, singles and families, the poor and the wealthy may find places to live.
   
   
4. At the edge of the neighborhood, there are shops and offices of sufficiently varied types to supply the weekly needs of a household.
   
   
5. A small ancillary building or garage apartment is permitted within the backyard of each house. It may be used as a rental unit or place to work (for example, office or craft workshop).
   
   
6. An elementary school is close enough so that most children can walk from their home.
   
   
7. There are small playgrounds accessible to every dwelling—not more than a tenth of a mile away.
   
   
8. Streets within the neighborhood form a connected network, which disperses traffic by providing a variety of pedestrian and vehicular routes to any destination.
   
   
9. The streets are relatively narrow and shaded by rows of trees. This slows traffic, creating an environment suitable for pedestrians and bicycles.
   
   
10. Buildings in the neighborhood center are placed close to the street, creating a well-defined outdoor room.
    
    
11. Parking lots and garage doors rarely front the street. Parking is relegated to the rear of buildings, usually accessed by alleys.
    
    
12. Certain prominent sites at the termination of street vistas or in the neighborhood center are reserved for civic buildings. These provide sites for community meetings, education, and religious or cultural activities.
    
    
13. The neighborhood is organized to be self-governing. A formal association debates and decides matters of maintenance, security, and physical change. Taxation is the responsibility of the larger community.

"Sustainable Development" is the curtailment of all human liberty. In other words, it's slavery. It is the United Nations' effort at controlling all life on planet earth.

Ignorance of the agenda, as well as characterizing those of us exposing it as "conspiracy nuts" won't stop the plan. Only educating yourself and others and getting active where you live will.
