United we stand and divided we become prey for those who are organized to prey upon us.

Over and over we hear and read the same divisive propaganda telling us who or what is to blame for the world’s problems.

It’s the Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Whites, Blacks, Browns, Chinese, Russians, Americans, capitalists, socialists, women, men, young, old, transgender, gay, pharmaceutical companies, and I’m sure I’m missing a few of the common “target” groups.

On the most fundamental levels people are not that different. That is key to understanding how people motivated by lust/greed for wealth and power are able to manipulate people, herd people, into mindsets and actions which only serve those who want to see the common people of the world angry, divided, and politically impotent. However, our fundamental commonalities are also the keys to the solutions.

This absolutely true message is being delivered so often, in so many ways these days that I almost feel wholly redundant in offering it up again. But it still isn’t heard, realized pervasively enough. The old, tired, yet continually successful strategy of “divide and conquer” is still being used against the masses by the organized few. The ones who have acquired enough wealth and power to want to jealously hoard and guard it also have the means to employ the means to manipulate the public. Experts, think tanks, consultants, mercenaries, the media (which they own most of), and beholden, or simply paid off or coerced politicians, dictators, and others in positions of power. These resources help them to know how to keep the masses focused on each other rather than the source(s) of their problems. And provide the avenues through which they run their predatory ventures.

And the masses fall for it. Over and over again. We keep giving them our money, our sons and daughters, our power. For what? Safety” From who? Them? I have to say, if we’ve been paying for protection we haven’t been getting it. We haven’t been militarily invaded and conquered, but, on an ongoing basis over decades disabling incursions have taken place (and still are) into our liberties, personal wealth, security in our homes, the healthfulness of our food, air and water, and even the quality and availability of healthcare (for the common person anyway). Never mind the horror show the pharmaceutical business is morphing into.

As the saying goes: “The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.” I would add: and the middle class is shrinking like a wet wool sweater in hot dryer. The long and the short of it is that the majority of people are being preyed upon by a relatively small minority. But a clever minority who is smart enough to keep enough of the masses employed and taken care of so that, if needed, they have armies to protect them. You know, some more mature folks along with a whole lot of our youthful sons and daughters. A whole lot of whom primarily enlisted in the military to try to avoid the too often bleak economic prospects that awaited them if they didn’t.

Overthrow them you say? For much, if not all, of the world the possibility of that solution went away with the close of the twentieth century. At least if you’re referring to trying to use violence as an answer. Violence is not the answer. Unless you think wiping out most, if not all, of the human race is the way to go. According to some that may be the solution God envisions, or not. And according to some that is the solution some oligarchs envision.

We’ve got to get smart, wise up. We’ve got to learn to regard one another as brothers and sisters. Or at least with some mutual respect and compassion. Saints and sages have been telling us that for millennia. At this point one solution which is immediately available to all people everywhere is the one Gandhi advocated. We need to refuse to cooperate any longer with the people, programs, and industries engaged in extreme profiteering and/or the polluting or poisoning of the world. And those that are pitting us against one another while they’ve been draining the life out of us. A lot of people in the world know this. If you’re one, I am thankful for your presence here on Earth in this critical time.

We need to focus on the future, the very possible bright future that we can build if enough of us want it and work for it. Not as socialists, not as communists, not because we are forced to, but as free people who realize the imperative of recognizing our mutuality and working together.

I am realizing that I need to add that while I am writing this primarily about what I know is going on in the United States, if you live in Russia, China, India, or anywhere in Africa and you think this is not happening there, you’re deluding yourselves. There may be some small country, somewhere, that has somehow escaped this corruption, perversion, and exploitation, but I don’t know where it is. What is taking place on a global level is an attempt to manipulate, impoverish, control, the common people everywhere by those who have, over decades and centuries, in some few cases possibly millennia, to acquire the wealth and power to mount such an assault on common humanity. Don’t cooperate with such plans and actions. Love you neighbor. Do the next right thing.

Alien Invasion: Something we need to worry about or something major defense contractors want us to worry about?

In 1965 I had the opportunity to travel from Indiana to New Mexico with a group of 14 Explorer Scouts and two Scoutmasters. Our final destination was the Philmont Scout Ranch in northern New Mexico. We were going to spend a number of days hiking in the mountains. We weren’t a wealthy group so we were saving money along the way whenever possible. One of the money saving things we did was to camp along the way rather than stay in motels. One night we were in Lubbock, Texas and had gotten permission to camp in one of the city parks. It was mid-August, the air was warm and the sky was clear. I loved to look at the night sky, in those days there was far less light pollution. We were sleeping on the ground, without tents, in a clearing with tall trees maybe 50 meters to my left and to my right. When it happened I think every other member of the group had gone to sleep.

A circle of yellow light which seemed to be the bottom of a craft appeared moving from right to left. It was maybe 50 meters above the treetops. I would estimate it to be approximately 20 meters in diameter. It made no sound at all. It was moving smoothly but it wasn’t moving particularly fast. At just about the same time that the first craft reached the perimeter of trees to my left, two more such craft appeared to my right. They were the same size and shape, with the same illumination, as the first craft. They were side by side, also moving smoothly and silently. The appearance and passage of all three craft took about 10 to 12 seconds. Even though the bottoms of all three circular craft were illuminated with a yellow light, they did not light up the trees nor the ground. I was in awe. I turned to a friend who was sleeping next to me, shook him, and asked him if he saw that! But he was sound asleep and there was no response. The next morning, I think I told him, and only him, of what I had seen. Decades later I did an online search and found an article in the Lubbock paper about the event. I wasn’t the only observer of what had happened.

Consequently, ever since I have had no reason to doubt the existence of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs), Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs), or whatever name or acronym they may be referred to by. It is a fascinating and important subject. The past few decades there have been many good documentaries produced on the general subject of extraterrestrial (ET) visitation to Earth. I have grown to particularly appreciate Dr. Steven Greer’s efforts to bring honest, authentic information on the subject to light. One theme that Dr. Greer comes back to frequently is the theme of how those in political power and the corporate media in the U.S. are making something of an effort to villainize extraterrestrial beings. It’s not uncommon to find adjectives such as “terrifying” or “frightening” used in connection with possible ET sightings. And more to the point of this post, it’s not uncommon to see the word “invasion” used in regard to such sightings. Finding articles which speculate about, or warn of, an extraterrestrial invasion is not difficult.

But here’s the thing, it is also not hard to find pictures of ancient cave art which is believed to depict alien beings. I linked to one example, or just do a search on “ancient cave art alien beings”. There are also quite a number of renaissance paintings which depict a UFO in them. Or, again, do your own search on paintings which depict UFOs. There are reports of people either sighting UFOs or having an encounter with the occupants of UFOs from just about every, if not every, continent going back decades if not centuries. The point is that metallic UFOs and alien beings with large heads and large dark eyes are nothing new. There is no question that the intelligence behind the UFO phenomena obviously has a much greater understanding of technology and physics than we do. Or maybe I need to add more than any people are readily admitting to. That is an important distinction for a reason I’ll get to. If there are people here on Earth, today, who possess the knowledge and skill to build and operate such craft, it is a relatively recent development. I would estimate no older than the mid twentieth century at the most. (I realize that raises the question of what did I see in Lubbock, Texas?)

Which brings us to a very important question. Why would beings who have outclassed us technologically for centuries wait until we might have the means to defend ourselves against them to try to invade us? Does that make any sense? These beings obviously possess the intellectual faculty to think logically. They undoubtedly have been able to watch the ongoing development of technology here on Earth. Those who have been studying the UFO phenomenon for decades state that there was a significant increase in UFO activity following the detonation of nuclear devices on Earth. I don’t think we Earthlings possess any propulsion technology that would come as a surprise to them. Nor any weapons technology for that matter.

But if we can be made to believe that some extraterrestrials have done exactly that: picked this point in time to decide to invade Earth, then the weapons industries can ask for billions of dollars, or rubles or yuan or pounds or Euros to protect us. And you know what? They’d get it. At least from the folks controlling the biggest military spenders among governments today. That is some significant motivation to those who are only interested in how such actions affect them and not the world at large.

Consider all that as context to the reality that according to people such Bob Lazar, Dr. Steven Greer, David Grusch, and others, we do have back engineered alien technology from crashed UFOs and possibly other sources. We do have craft which are being produced here on Earth using that acquired technology which look and act almost identical to the alien craft. And despite all the emphatic statements to the contrary, there are people within the halls of government within the U.S. and I suspect Russia, China and others who are aware of this.

If tomorrow a small fleet of UFOs, UAPs shows up over a major city on Earth and begin firing laser weapons or directed energy weapons, or sonic blasts, or electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) or a combination of these things, who do you think the people in the city are going to think is attacking them? At that moment I doubt if there will be much consideration given to whether or not the attack is coming from alien beings, or is a “false flag” attack by zealous, callous, profiteering defense contractors as a part of a high-tech sales pitch to the world. A “sales pitch” intended to frighten populations and motivate them to cry out for protection from their respective governments. At that moment, in the heat of the attack, the corporate media outlets around the world will pick up the narrative of an “alien attack” and those controlling the situation will run with it all the way to the bank.

There is another element involved which people who lust for control over others would be attracted to, that is the willingness of frightened people to give up any human rights or freedoms they may have at that time for a promise of protection. That is an important topic for another time, another post.

As hard as it may be to believe, the “invasion” scenario described above is a very real possibility that humanity should be aware of.
