										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>Who Is “The Restrainer”?</em></strong></p>
<blockquote><p>II Thessalonians 2:5-12 (New King James Version)<br />
<strong><sup>5 </sup></strong>Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things?<br />
<strong><sup>6 </sup></strong>And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time.<br />
<strong><sup>7 </sup></strong>For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains <em>will do so</em> until He is taken out of the way.<br />
<strong><sup>8 </sup></strong>And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming.<br />
<strong><sup>9 </sup></strong>The coming of the <em>lawless one</em> is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders,<br />
<strong><sup>10 </sup></strong>and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.<br />
<strong><sup>11 </sup></strong>And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie,<br />
<strong><sup>12 </sup></strong>that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.</p></blockquote>
<p>If you read the NKJV, the translators capitalize the pronouns in verse seven clearly leading all to believe “the restrainer” is the Lord.</p>
<p>But is that accurate?</p>
<p>The King James version was based upon the highly-reliable <em>Textus Receptus</em> manuscripts.  The New King James, however, was not a modern English update of the KJV.  Critical changes to <a href="https://www.chick.com/ask/articles/nkjvtext.asp">Scripture were made</a>.  Although the 1982 preface to the New King James states the intent is only to take the Elizabethan language<sup>1</sup> and make it understandable in modern English, the translators failed to mention that changes would be made according to the Septuagint and even <a href="http://www.tbsbibles.org/pdf_information/130-1.pdf">Jerome’s Latin Vulgate</a>!</p>
<p>Other translations are noticeably different.</p>
<blockquote><p>II Thessalonians 2:5-12 (New American Standard Bible)<br />
<strong><sup>5 </sup></strong>Do you not remember that while I was still with you, I was telling you these things?<br />
<strong><sup>6 </sup></strong>And you know what restrains him now, so that in his time he will be revealed.<br />
<strong><sup>7 </sup></strong>For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains <em>will do so</em> until he is taken out of the way.<br />
<strong><sup>8 </sup></strong>Then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming;<br />
<strong><sup>9 </sup></strong><em>that is</em>, the one whose coming is in accord with the activity of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders,<br />
<strong><sup>10 </sup></strong>and with all the deception of wickedness for those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved.<br />
<strong><sup>11 </sup></strong>For this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false,<br />
<strong><sup>12 </sup></strong>in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth, but took pleasure in wickedness.</p></blockquote>
<p>So who is “the Restrainer”?  Does this help us understand who anti-Christ will be?  What is the “strong delusion”?</p>
<p>Often, it is assumptions that lead to biased and incorrect exegesis of Scripture.  Such is frequently an error of the Western mindset.  A Buddhist saw tells us—</p>
<blockquote><p><em>If you wish to know the truth, hold no opinions.</em><sup>2</sup></p></blockquote>
<p><strong><em>Daniel’s 70 Weeks</em></strong></p>
<p>A similar confusion of pronouns can be found in an even more important passage; Daniel’s “70 Weeks”—the Prophecy of Daniel 9:24-27.</p>
<p>Sadly, there are <em>no</em> English translations that show this Prophecy in its clarity.</p>
<blockquote><p>Daniel 9:24-27 (New International Version)<br />
<strong><sup>24 </sup></strong>“Seventy ‘sevens’ are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the Most Holy Place.<br />
<strong><sup>25 </sup></strong>“Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’  It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble.<br />
<strong><sup>26 </sup></strong>After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing.  The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary.  The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed.<br />
<strong><sup>27 </sup></strong>He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’  In the middle of the ‘seven’ he will put an end to sacrifice and offering.  And at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.”</p></blockquote>
<p>In one of the most important passages of Scripture are mixed two seminal yet diametrically-opposed figures; the Anointed Messiah and the Destroyer—the anti-Messiah (although not equal in power).</p>
<p>The key to interpretation is found in the final verse.  The one who puts an end to the sacrifice and offering must be evil, mustn’t he?  The “covenant” must be a future, 7-year covenant, mustn’t it?</p>
<p>In Scripture, there are only <em>two</em> Covenants—the first is the Covenant between YHWH and His People given by Moses.  It was a Covenant His People could not keep [<a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+15%3A7-11&amp;version=MEV">Acts 15:7-11</a>], one that was only meant to hold them and point them toward a new Covenant [<a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Galatians+3%3A19-24&amp;version=NKJV">Galatians 3:19-24</a>].  This New Covenant was radically different from the old—rather than written on tablets of stone and impossible to keep, this One would be written on the <em>hearts</em> of God’s People and they would keep it out of love for Him! [<a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Jeremiah+31%3A31-34&amp;version=MEV">Jeremiah 31:31-34</a>]
<p>In <em>this</em> light a literal reading of the Prophecy produces a radically different interpretation.</p>
<blockquote><p>Daniel 9:24-27 (Young’s Literal Translation)<br />
<strong><sup>24 </sup></strong>‘Seventy weeks are determined for thy people, and for thy holy city, to shut up the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover iniquity, and to bring in righteousness age-during, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of holies.<br />
<strong><sup>25 </sup></strong>And thou dost know, and dost consider wisely, from the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem till Messiah the Leader [is] seven weeks, and sixty and two weeks: the broad place hath been built again, and the rampart, even in the distress of the times.<br />
<strong><sup>26 </sup></strong>And after the sixty and two weeks, cut off is Messiah, and the city and the holy place are not his, the Leader who hath come doth destroy the people; and its end [is] with a flood, and till the end [is] war, determined [are] desolations.<br />
<strong><sup>27 </sup></strong>And he hath strengthened a covenant with many — one week, and [in] the midst of the week he causeth sacrifice and present to cease, and by the wing of abominations he is making desolate, even till the consummation, and that which is determined is poured on the desolate one.’</p></blockquote>
<p>There are flip-flopping contrasts floating between verses 26 and 27; first Messiah arrives at the appointed time but is “cut off”.  Then, anti-Messiah comes (from the anti-Messiah people) and will destroy the Sanctuary and make desolate with a “flood” (flooding waters often are a Biblical metaphor for many people).  Contrasting again, <em>Messiah</em> will <em>re-affirm</em> the Old Covenant but only for a single “week” (7 years).  Halfway through, <em>He</em> will cause the sacrifice to become obsolete and impossible to continue both physically and spiritually.</p>
<blockquote><p>John 2:13-22 (Modern English Version)<br />
<strong><sup>13 </sup></strong>The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.<br />
<strong><sup>14 </sup></strong>In the temple He found those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the moneychangers sitting there.<br />
<strong><sup>15 </sup></strong>When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and oxen.  He poured out the changers’ money and overturned the tables.<br />
<strong><sup>16 </sup></strong>He said to those who sold doves, <span style="color: #800000;">“Take these things away!  Do not make My Father’s house a house of merchandise!”</span><br />
<strong><sup>17 </sup></strong>His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for Your house will consume Me.”<br />
<strong><sup>18 </sup></strong>Then the Jews said to Him, “What sign do You show us, seeing that You do these things?”<br />
<strong><sup>19 </sup></strong>Jesus answered them, <span style="color: #800000;">“Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”</span><br />
<strong><sup>20 </sup></strong>Then the Jews said, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?”<br />
<strong><sup>21 </sup></strong>But He was speaking concerning the temple of His body.<br />
<strong><sup>22 </sup></strong>Therefore, when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this to them.  And they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;">______________</p>
<blockquote><p>Matthew 23:37-24:2 (Modern English Version)<br />
<strong><sup>37 </sup></strong><span style="color: #800000;">“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those who are sent to you, how often I would have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you would not!”</span><br />
<strong><sup>38 </sup></strong><span style="color: #800000;">“Look, your house is left to you desolate.”</span><br />
<strong><sup>39 </sup></strong><span style="color: #800000;">“For I tell you, you shall not see Me again until you say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.’”</span></p>
<p>Chapter 24</p>
<p><strong><sup>1</sup></strong> Jesus departed from the temple and was leaving when His disciples came to show Him the temple buildings.<br />
<strong><sup>2</sup></strong> Jesus answered them, <span style="color: #800000;">“Do you not see all these things?  Truly I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another that shall not be thrown down.”</span></p></blockquote>
<p>Most bizarre of all, both Messiah and anti-Messiah work together to fulfill the Prophetic Divine Will!</p>
<p>It was intended for Messiah to re-affirm the Old Covenant with His 7-year ministry (beginning at His Baptism by John).</p>
<p>Halfway through His Ministry, traitorous Jewish leaders intent on killing anyone who threatened their power, seditiously worked with real power in Judea to have the Anointed One murdered without just cause (“not for Himself”).</p>
<p>A short time later, the people of the coming anti-Christ devastated Jerusalem and leveled the Temple down to its last foundation stone—<em>Romans</em>.</p>
<blockquote><p>Gessius Florus loved money and hated Jews.  As Roman procurator, he ruled Judea, caring little for their religious sensibilities.  When tax revenues were low, he seized silver from the temple.  As the uproar against him grew, in A.D. 66, he sent troops into Jerusalem who massacred 3,600 citizens.  Florus’s action touched off an explosive rebellion—the First Jewish Revolt—that had been sizzling for some time.</p>
<p><strong>Launching the Revolt</strong></p>
<p>The Jewish Revolt began—and met its bitter end—at Masada, a hunk of rock overlooking the Dead Sea.  The Romans had built a virtually impregnable fortress there.  Yet the atrocities of Florus inspired some crazy Zealots to attack Masada.  Amazingly, they won, slaughtering the Roman army there.</p>
<p>In Jerusalem, the temple captain signified solidarity with the revolt by stopping the daily sacrifices to Caesar.  Soon all Jerusalem was in an uproar, expelling or killing the Roman troops.  Then all Judea was in revolt; then Galilee.</p>
<p>Cestius Callus, the Roman governor of the region, marched from Syria with twenty thousand soldiers.  He besieged Jerusalem for six months, yet failed.  He left six thousand dead Roman soldiers, not to mention weaponry that the Jewish defenders picked up and used.</p>
<p>Emperor Nero then sent Vespasian, a decorated general, to quell the Judean rebellion.  Vespasian put down the opposition in Galilee, then in Transjordan, then in Idumea.  He circled in on Jerusalem.  But before the <em>coup de grace</em>, Nero died.  Vespasian became embroiled in a leadership struggle that concluded with the eastern armies calling for him to be emperor.  One of his first imperial acts was to appoint his son Titus to conduct the Jewish War.</p>
<p><strong>Crushing the Revolt</strong></p>
<p>By now, Jerusalem was isolated from the rest of the nation, and factions within the city fought over strategies of defense.  As the siege wore on, people began dying from starvation and plague.  The high priest’s wife, who once basked in luxury, scavenged for crumbs in the streets.</p>
<p>Meanwhile the Romans employed new war machines to hurl boulders against the city walls.  Battering rams assaulted the fortifications.  Jewish defenders fought all day and struggled to rebuild the walls at night.  Eventually the Romans broke through the outer wall, then the second wall, and finally the third wall.  Still the Jews fought, scurrying to the temple as their last line of defense.</p>
<p>That was the end for the valiant Jewish defenders and for the temple.  Historian Josephus claimed that Titus wanted to preserve the temple, but his soldiers were so angry at their resilient opponents that they burned it.  The remaining Jews were slaughtered or sold as slaves.</p>
<p>The Zealot band that took Masada held it for at least three more years.  When the Romans finally built their siege ramp and invaded the mountain fortress, they found the defenders dead—they had committed suicide to avoid being captured by foreigners.</p>
<p><strong>Results of the Revolt</strong></p>
<p>The Jewish Revolt marked the end of the Jewish state until modern times.  The destruction of the temple also signified a change in the Jews’ worship&#8230;<sup>3</sup></p></blockquote>
<p><strong><em>Confirmed</em></strong></p>
<p>Understanding the Romans as the people of the anti-Christ is the key to unlocking the proper understanding of these passages.  The Romans would later become “Holy Romans”, mutating just as Daniel predicted into a Beast very different from the three previous Beasts (empires) given to both Daniel and Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar.</p>
<blockquote><p>Daniel 7:1-8 (Modern English Version)<br />
<strong><sup>1</sup> </strong>In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel had a dream and visions of his mind <em>while</em> on his bed.  Then he wrote the dream and told the sum of the matters.<br />
<strong><sup>2 </sup></strong>Daniel spoke and said: I saw in my vision by night the four winds of the heaven striving upon the <em>Mediterranean</em> Sea.<br />
<strong><sup>3 </sup></strong>Four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse from one another.<br />
<strong><sup>4 </sup></strong>The first was like a lion and had eagle’s wings.  I watched until its wings were plucked and it was lifted up from the earth and made to stand on the feet as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it.<br />
<strong><sup>5 </sup></strong>Another beast appeared, a second, like a bear, and it raised itself up on one side, and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth.  And they said to it, “Arise, devour much flesh.”<br />
<strong><sup>6 </sup></strong>After this I looked and there was another, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a fowl.  The beast also had four heads.  And dominion was given to it.<br />
<strong><sup>7 </sup></strong>After this I saw in the visions at night a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and exceedingly strong.  And it had great iron teeth.  It devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the rest with its feet.  And it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns.<br />
<strong><sup>8 </sup></strong>I considered the horns, when there came up among them another little horn before whom three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots.  And there, in this horn, were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.</p></blockquote>
<p>This Fourth and Final Beast was unlike the previous three because she would control in secret.  This way, she would spread tendrils across civilization.</p>
<p>Now, instead of enforcing her will by posting soldiers on every street corner, she would co-opt the soldiers and officials of each nation she conquered and <em>they</em> would do her will in secret!</p>
<p>Daniel’s vision was in perfect harmony with the dream he interpreted for King Nebuchadnezzar in Chapter 2 of a great statue which had a head of gold (Babylon), a torso of silver (Medo/Persia), loins of brass (Greece), legs and feet of iron (Rome).</p>
<p>Notice how the teeth of the Final Beast were the same material as the legs in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream: iron.</p>
<p>But this new “Holy Roman Empire” knew she had been predicted in Scripture and went about wiping off her bloody fingerprints, leaving only faded clues behind.</p>
<p>The 1517 Reformation initiated by Martin Luther gave new light which explained that the entire office of the Papacy was anti-Christ.</p>
<blockquote><p>The theme became very popular in the late Middle Ages among the Fraticelli, Wycliffites, and Hussites, who identified the popes with the Antichrist soon to be overthrown.  Luther was unwittingly in line with these sectaries, with one significant difference, however.</p>
<p>Whereas they identified particular popes, because of their evil lives, with Antichrist, Luther held that every pope was Antichrist even though personally exemplary, because Antichrist is collective: an institution, the papacy, a system which corrupts the truth of Christ.</p>
<p>That was why Luther could repeatedly address Leo X in terms of personal respect only a week or so after blasting him as Antichrist.<sup>4</sup></p></blockquote>
<p>The Jesuit-run Counter-Reformation began immediately upon Luther’s break.  Unable to destroy the movement by the brute force of the Inquisition’s burning pyres and instruments of torture, they embarked upon a new strategy to compromise and discredit Scripture.</p>
<p>Again, the keepers of Truth became an underground minority.</p>
<p>Despite their creation by Freemason William Miller, Seventh Day Adventists remained as the sole keeper of the torch of Luther.</p>
<p>Adventist scholar Uriah Smith confirmed these interpretations for us in the 19<sup>th</sup> century.</p>
<blockquote><p>Commenting on the prophecy that the little horn should “wear out the saints of the Most High,” Barnes, in his Notes on Dan.7:25, says: “Can any one doubt that this is true of the papacy?  The Inquisition, the persecutions of the Waldenses, the ravages of the Duke of Alva, the fires of Smithfield, the tortures of Goa, — indeed, the whole history of the papacy, may be appealed to in proof that this is applicable to that power.  If anything could have worn out the saints of the Most High, — could have cut them off from the earth so that evangelical religion would have become extinct, — it would have been the persecutions of the papal power.  In year 1208 a crusade was proclaimed by Pope Innocent III against the Waldenses and Albigenses, in which a million men perished.  From the beginning of the order of Jesuits in the year 1540 to 1580, nine hundred thousand were destroyed.  One hundred and fifty thousand perished by the Inquisition in thirty years.  In the Low Countries fifty thousand persons were hanged, beheaded, burned, or buried alive, for the crime of heresy, within the space of thirty-eight years from the edict of Charles V against the Protestants to the peace of Chateau Cambresis in 1559.  Eighteen thousand suffered by the hand of the executioner in the space of five years and a half, during the administration of the Duke of Alva.  Indeed, the slightest acquaintance with the history of the papacy will convince any one that what is here said of ‘making war with the saints’ ([Daniel 7] verse 21), and ‘wearing out the saints of the Most High’ (verse 25), is strictly applicable to that power, and will accurately describe its history.”  (See Buck’s Theological Dictionary, art., Persecutions: Oswald’s Kingdom, etc., pp.107-133; Dowling’s History of Romanism; Fox’s Book of Martyrs: Charlotte Elizabeth’s Martyrology; The Wars of the Huguenots; The Great Red Dragon, by Anthony Gavin, formerly one of the Roman Catholic priests of Saragossa, Spain; Histories of the Reformation, etc.) &#8230;</p>
<p>“The prince of the covenant” unquestionably refers to Jesus Christ, “the Messiah the Prince,” who was to “confirm the covenant” one week with his people. Dan. 9:25-27.  The prophet, having taken us down to the death of Tiberius, now mentions incidentally an event to transpire in his reign, so important that it should not be passed over; namely, the cutting off of the Prince of the covenant, or in other words, the death of our Lord Jesus Christ.  According to the prophecy, this took place in the reign of Tiberius.  Luke informs us (3:1-3) that in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, John the Baptist commenced his ministry.  The reign of Tiberius is to be reckoned, according to Prideaux, Dr. Hales, Lardner, and others, from his elevation to the throne to reign jointly with Augustus, his step-father, in August, A.D. 12.  His fifteenth year would therefore be from August, A.D. 26, to August, A.D. 27.  Christ was six months younger than John, and is supposed to have commenced his ministry six months later, both, according to the law of the priesthood, entering upon their work when they were thirty years of age.  If John commenced in the spring, in the latter portion of Tiberius’s fifteenth year, it would bring the commencement of Christ’s ministry in the autumn of A.D. 27; and right here the best authorities place the baptism of Christ, it being the exact point where the 483 years from B.C. 457, which were to extend to the Messiah the Prince, terminated; and Christ went forth proclaiming that the time was fulfilled.  From this point we go forward three years and a half to find the date of the crucifixion; for Christ attended but four Passovers, and was crucified at the last one.  Three and a half years from the autumn of A.D. 27 bring us to the spring of A.D. 31.  The death of Tiberius is placed but six years later, in A.D. 37.<sup>5</sup></p></blockquote>
<p><strong><em>Who Is The Restrainer?</em></strong></p>
<p>Now with the proper understanding we can return to our original question.</p>
<p>It was well understood be even “Church Fathers” like Quintus Septimius Florens Tertullianus, (c. 155 – 240 AD)—better known to us as “Tertullian”.</p>
<blockquote><p>Dealing with the eschatological section of Paul’s first Epistle to the Thessalonians, Tertullian asks: ‘What archangel’s voice, what trump of God, is now heard, except it be forsooth in the entertainments of the heretics?  ‘He also points out that in the second Epistle to the Thessalonians Paul bids them not be troubled by false prophets, who teach that the day of the Lord is at hand.  For that day shall not come, unless there first comes a falling away, and the appearance of Antichrist.  The Antichrist cannot, however, come until he who now hinders shall be taken out of the way.  The ‘one who now hinders’ is the Roman Empire.  ‘What obstacle is there but the Roman state, the falling away of which, by being scattered |<sup>p210</sup> into ten kingdoms, shall introduce Antichrist upon (its own ruins.)’<sup>6</sup></p></blockquote>
<p>The anti-Christ office of the Papacy could not materialize unless the military office of the Roman Empire first disappeared.</p>
<p><strong><em>Learning Against Learning</em></strong></p>
<p>So if the early Church knew Rome was the 4<sup>th</sup> and Final Beast, and Protestants knew the Papacy was the anti-Christ, why isn’t it common knowledge today?</p>
<blockquote><p>With Rome so clearly depicted as the 4th and final Beast of both Daniel and Revelation, Jesuits needed to disconnect Christians from that interpretation and they used Preterism and Futurism to do it.</p>
<p>Preterism is the idea that most of prophecy has already taken place.  It was concocted by a Jesuit.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>Preterism was first advanced in 1604 by Jesuit Luis de Alcasar to destroy the Reformed Protestant teaching that the papacy was Mystery Babylon, the Great Whore and the historical Antichrist. &#8230;</em></p>
<p>Preterism wasn’t accepted by large groups of Protestants and an alternative interpretation of the End Times was put forth.</p>
<p>Futurism is more appealing in that it acknowledges that much of prophecy is yet future but it distracts from the 4th Beast and paints the anti-Christ as a man who suddenly appears just before the Tribulation and who stands alone, apart from any organization or system.</p>
<p>It, too, was fabricated by a Jesuit.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>Francisco Ribera (1537-1591) of Salamanca, Spain, published a 500 page commentary on the grand points of Babylon and Antichrist, the object being to set aside the Protestant teaching that the Papacy is the Antichrist.  In his commentary, he assigned the first chapters of Revelation to the first century.  The rest he restricted to a literal three and a half years a the end of time.  He taught that the Jewish temple would be rebuilt by a single individual antichrist who would abolish the Christian religion, deny Christ, pretend to be God, and conquer the world.<sup>8</sup> &#8230;</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>Ribera’s commentary laid the foundation for the greater structure of <strong>Futurism</strong>, which would be built upon and expanded by those who followed.  Ribera’s teaching was further popularized by Robert Bellarmine (1544-0621), an Italian cardinal and the most renowned of all Jesuit controversialists.<sup>10</sup></em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>After accepting the Jesuits’ <strong>Futurist System </strong>(and the <strong>Preterist System</strong>&#8230;) millenarian Protestants no longer saw Rome as a present but only a distant future threat.<sup>11</sup>  We should also mention Irving’s system saw no hope of victory over the present forces of evil except “by the brightness of his coming” in the second advent. With no hope, why try to conquer all things for Christ? </em>~ <em>Death of the Church Victorious</em>, Ovid Need<sup>557</sup> <strong><sup>7</sup></strong></p>

<p>Perhaps such a complete accomplishment seems impossible—no organization on Earth could so thoroughly control the understanding of almost all Christendom &#8230; could it?</p>

<blockquote><p><span style="color: #800000;">“Unless those days were shortened, no one would be saved.  But for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.  Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ,’ or ‘There He is,’ do not believe it.  For false christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.  Listen, I have told you beforehand.”</span> ~ Matthew 24:22-25 (Modern English Version)</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>UPDATE 29 March 2017, 01:31 PM, EST</strong></p>
<p>The dichotomy and contrast between the old Mosaic Covenant and new Covenant in Messiah Jesus Christ can clearly be seen in this passage from Jeremiah where even physically circumcised Jews are called “uncircumsized”—</p>
<blockquote><p>Jeremiah 9:25-26, (Modern English Version)<br />
<strong><sup>25</sup></strong> The days are surely coming, says the Lord, that I will punish all who are circumcised and yet uncircumcised—<br />
<strong><sup>26</sup></strong> Egypt, Judah, Edom, the children of Ammon, Moab, and all who dwell in the wilderness who clip the hair on their temples; for all these nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised of heart.</p></blockquote>
<p>The meaning is clear: true Faith in YHWH (through His Son) is a radical change of the <em>heart</em>.  Righteousness is kept from within, not by memorization, legalism or rote.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well over a year ago, I was <em>thoroughly</em> entrenched in what I have now come to call “mainstream alternative news”—listening to all of the radio shows, podcasts and youtube videos I could find to help stay abreast of the latest threat to what’s left of my beloved America.</p>
<p>I was very active and had done a lot of blogging but with little to show for it.</p>
<p>Part of the reason was that every time I reached out to someone in “mainstream alternative ‘Christian’ news” I was either ignored or pushed off.</p>
<p>I think <em>every</em> supposed Christian operation should take special care to have the mechanisms in place to correspond with their audience but even more so when a published author writes and says “I have the answers to all your questions!”</p>
<blockquote><p><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Illuminati-Unmasked-Everything-about-World/dp/1506156290" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Illuminati Unmasked</a></strong></p></blockquote>
<p>After getting just such a response from Rick Wiles and “TruNews” I put 2 and 2 together and came up with 666.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong><a href="https://johnnycirucci.com/is-trunews-controlled-opposition/">Is TruNews Controlled Opposition?</a></strong></p></blockquote>
<p>I was, however, able to make a connection with <em>another</em> published author who was extremely gracious in responding and, in fact, said, “Hey, why don’t I give you a call?”</p>
<p>Well that was a pleasant surprise.  I guess this guy was actually living his walk.</p>
<p>Since then he and I have put each other on our e-mail lists and I’ve had several earth-shattering awakenings but he’s stayed the same guy he was when we talked a year ago.</p>
<p>I’m really quite frustrated.  I’ve spoken to him on the phone once or twice since then and tried to share with him what I’ve learned but it hasn’t been reflected in anything he’s done so I get the feeling that my warnings are falling on deaf ears.</p>
<p>Recently he was kind enough to include me in a mass e-mail with other key names in our field which turned out to be a letter to Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal regarding LA funding of Planned Parenthood.</p>
<p>I knew from the start it was a waste of time but did anyone else really know why?</p>
<p>That pushed me to write this:</p>
<hr />
<p>XXXXX;</p>
<p>I hate to see you needlessly spinning your wheels, sending e-mails with no effect so let me provide you with some answers.</p>
<p>I deeply appreciate you trying to give voice to the silent screams of the unborn; slaughtered in manners that are <a href="http://www.prolife.com/ABORMETH.html">nothing short of Mengele-esque</a> and literally satanic.</p>
<p>That should not be a surprise as the forces that control America actually do worship satan and <em>feed</em> off of the horrors they commit upon the most innocent—</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://www.lifenews.com/2015/08/20/former-satanist-i-performed-satanic-rituals-inside-abortion-clinics/"><strong>Former Satanist: “I Performed Satanic Rituals Inside Abortion Clinics”</strong></a>, LifeNews</p></blockquote>
<p>This is what they have always done—</p>
<blockquote><p>“&#8230;you took your sons and daughters whom you had borne to Me and sacrificed them to idols to be devoured. Were your harlotries so small a matter?  You slaughtered My children and offered them up to idols by causing them to pass through the fire.  Besides all your abominations and harlotries you did not remember the days of your youth, when you were naked and bare and squirming in your blood.  “Then it came about after all your wickedness (‘Woe, woe to you!’ declares the L-rd G-d), that you built yourself a shrine and made yourself a high place in every square.” ~ Ezekiel 16:20-24</p></blockquote>
<p>Today, that “high place” is Washington DC where the Phallus of Osiris (cunningly mis-named “the Washington Monument”) faces the Womb of Isis (which we know as the Capitol Rotunda).</p>

<p>It is a mirror image of St. Peter’s square where an actual Egyptian obelisk was taken from Heliopolis to complete the ancient Chaldean/Luciferian worship.</p>

<p>Governor Jindal, a good New Orleans Roman Catholic, must obey his masters and they are <em>not</em> the American people nor does he honor his oath to protect and serve the United States Constitution.</p>
<p>Bobby Jindal bows to Rome, just as <em>all</em> American rulers and puppets do.</p>
<p>Americans are fools who think that empowering Republicans brings us off of the suicide train we’re on because <em>both</em> sides are completely controlled by an enemy who hates us beyond our comprehension.</p>
<p>In 2010, the House gavel was passed from Nancy Pelosi to John Boehner.  Pelosi’s reign was marked by her rabid, far-Left, pro-homosexual, pro-abortion, anti-American agenda.  She was trained by the President of San Francisco University, Stephen J. Privett—a Jesuit.</p>

<p>John Boehner was <em>educated</em> by Jesuits at Xavier University and installed the first <em>Jesuit</em> as House Chaplain, Patrick J. Conroy.</p>
<p>When Pelosi gave up her position, it was a joyous occasion for all in the know.</p>

<p>Barack Hussein Obama is <em>also</em> Jesuit-trained, taught how to be a good Communist “community organizer” by <em>his</em> mentor Greg Galluzzo.</p>
<blockquote><p>Mr. Kellman ended his day at the Gamaliel Foundation with Gregory Galluzzo, its executive director who had been Mr. Obama’s organizing consultant back in the day.</p>
<p>They discussed public education projects though, as Mr. Galluzzo noted, it’s still all about “getting people into the political and social decisions affecting their lives and taking control,” whether it’s a bad school principal or immigration. ~ <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/17/us/17cncwarren.html?_r=0">James Warren, NY Times</a></p></blockquote>
<p>You’d think “MISTER” Galluzzo being a Jesuit priest (<a href="http://www.wnd.com/2008/10/78217/">listed here by WorldNetDaily</a> as a “<em>former</em>” Jesuit but there’s no such thing—only EX-Jesuits who usually end up dead) would’ve been noteworthy to a NY Times reporter but, for some reason, the word “Jesuit” never came up in the piece, nor does it <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamaliel_Foundation">in the Wikipedia entry</a> on the so-called “Gamaliel Foundation”.</p>
<p>What does a famous Jewish expositor have to do with Communism and “community organizing”?  NOTHING!  It’s just the usual false Jewish mask that is placed on all of the Vatican’s malignant machinations.</p>
<p>It’s the very reason why there are three token hard-Left Jews now sitting on the Supreme Court—all the rest of the black-robed insurgent traitors are CATHOLIC.</p>
<p>After Chief Justice John Roberts proved that he was a high traitor who worked for Rome by claiming that the Communist takeover of America’s healthcare system by a cabal of Democrats was “Constitutional” he quipped that he needed to retreat to the <a href="http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/235707-roberts-jokes-about-vacationing-on-a-impregnable-island-fortress">“Island Fortress of Malta”</a> where he was doubtlessly crowned a defender of the Catholic Communist Order; a <em>Knight</em> of Malta.</p>
<p>Roberts is a member of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Their-Kingdom-Come-Inside-Secret/dp/0312357605">the Catholic secret society of Opus Dei</a>, just like former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum, who gave convicted Penn State pedophile Jerry Sandusky <a href="http://blog.seattlepi.com/seattlepolitics/2011/11/09/santorum-angel-award-for-psus-sandusky/">a “Congressional Angels in Adoption Award”</a> for all of the great work he was doing via his “Second Mile Foundation”—it was that very foundation that Sandusky was using as a front group to peddle young boys to America’s Luciferian Elite.</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/jerry-sandusky-donors-2011-11"><strong>SHOCKING PENN STATE RUMOR: Jerry Sandusky “Pimped Out Young Boys To Rich Donors”</strong></a>, Tony Manfred, Business Insider</p></blockquote>
<p>Philadelphia Prosecutor Ray Gricar was on the Sandusky case in the 1990’s, <a href="http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/DA-Who-Never-Charged-Sandusky-Has-Been-Missing-Since-2005-133615093.html">but then he “disappeared”</a>.</p>
<p>Penn State head coach Joe Paterno was linked to both Opus Dei <a href="http://spitfirelist.com/news/its-easier-to-develop-a-child-than-to-rehabilitate-an-adult-part-2/">and the Bush administration</a>.  It was under Bush President #41’s leadership back in the 1980’s that young boys were brought to Washington for exploitation and sex slavery.  Don’t worry, there was an investigation over how credit cards were used to pay some of the pimps off.</p>
<p>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVME6xtwwA8&#038;</p>
<p>Although a small handful of authors and investigators know what happened in Omaha, Nebraska regarding the trafficking of young boys (now called “the Franklin Coverup”) what most don’t know is that <a href="http://www.salem-news.com/articles/december292012/boys-town-scandal-tk.php">the scandal originated in the Catholic</a> home for orphaned boys known as “Boys Town”.</p>
<p>Penn State was quick to do an investigation of their own.  The university somehow had the <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/psu-taps-ex-fbi-director-freeh-investigation-152420920.html">clout to hire former Director</a> of the FBI Louis J. Freeh.</p>
<p>It was quite fortuitous for them that Freeh was also a Knight of Columbus and a member <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&amp;address=104x1628441">of Opus Dei as well</a>.</p>
<p>As pedophilia investigations leak out around the world, they all have one central theme—<a href="http://spitfirelist.com/news/its-easier-to-develop-a-child-than-to-rehabilitate-an-adult-how-many-child-molestation-investigations-overlap/">all roads lead to Rome</a>.</p>

<p>You have to understand, XXXXX, that Rome controls both America’s traitors and the frauds who supposedly investigate them.  They try to cover their tracks but they can’t control EVERY story that comes out;</p>
<blockquote><p>Opus Dei cares about attracting Ivy League grads.  Its Tenley Learning Center in upscale Northwest Washington has a highly regarded SAT-program.</p>
<p>The order is closely affiliated with two well-regarded Catholic schools in the Washington suburbs, The Heights (all-boys) and Oakcrest (all-girls).  “We’re out to change the world,” says Barbara Faulk, the headmistress of Oakcrest.  “But we’re not shrouded in something weird.” Louis Freeh-like Bob Hanssen-sends a son to the Heights. Many parents of the Opus Dei schools worship at St. Catherine of Siena in Great Falls, Va., an orthodox Catholic church that still offers a Latin mass. Parishioners include Freeh and Justice Scalia.</p>
<p>Scalia is regarded as the embodiment of the Catholic conservatives. He is careful not to be seen mixing politics and religion, but his faith clearly influences his work on the high court.  While he is not a member of Opus Dei, his wife Maureen has attended Opus Dei’s “spiritual functions,” says an Opus Dei member.  Scalia’s son, Father Paul Scalia, helped convert Clarence Thomas to Catholicism four years ago. Last month, Thomas gave a fiery speech at the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank, to an audience full of Bush Administration officials. In the speech, Thomas praised Pope John Paul II for taking unpopular stands.  The conservative Catholics in the audience agreed with every word Thomas said. ~ <a href="http://www.newsweek.com/washingtons-quiet-club-149005">Evan Thomas, Newsweek</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Do you remember Robert Hanssen?  He was the FBI agent that gave a treasure-trove of intelligence to the Soviet Union to help keep them up to par with the United States—can’t have a fake Cold War unless the two sides are really a danger to each other.</p>
<p>Hanssen was “nabbed” by Catholic whiz-kid Eric M. O’Neill who was selected by the Jesuits in high school then given a safe, secular college education (just like Karl Marx).</p>
<blockquote><p>O’Neill graduated from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonzaga_College_High_School">Gonzaga College High School</a> in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington,_D.C.">Washington, D.C.</a> in 1991 and earned a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bachelor_of_Arts">B.A.</a>, with honors, in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_science">political science</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychology">psychology</a> from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auburn_University">Auburn University</a> in 1995, where he was a brother of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theta_Xi">Theta Xi</a> fraternity.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_O%27Neill#cite_note-off-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_O%27Neill#cite_note-ocm-3"><sup>[3]</sup></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_O%27Neill#cite_note-linkedin-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> ~ <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_O%27Neill">Wikipedia</a></p></blockquote>
<p>The <a href="https://johnnycirucci.com/illuminati-revealed/">Jesuits <em>invented</em> Communism</a> and have been wielding it ever since to punish <em>both</em> Russia and America and, really, the entire world.</p>
<p>But when what they were doing became blatantly obvious—having put Communist agents in every level of American government—it became necessary to create a clownish anti-Communist Inquisitor to give them all cover and who better to do that than Irish Catholic Joe McCarthy at the behest of his Jesuit handler Edmund Walsh (the Company man who screened Rome from her involvement in <a href="https://repository.library.georgetown.edu/bitstream/handle/10822/559013/GTM.GAMMS239.html?sequence=1#ref1366">the 3<sup>rd</sup> Reich at Nuremburg</a>).</p>
<blockquote><p>On the day that McCarthyism was born, and unseasonably warm spell was broken in Washington, D.C.  It was January 7, 1950, and record-breaking temperatures—on the 6th it had reached 72 degrees—gave way to a return of winter cold. Winds announcing the cold front blew through the city at 40 mph, causing minor damage to a couple trees and a storefront window.</p>
<p>That night, a meeting took place at the Colony restaurant, a four-star establishment in downtown Washington. Attending were four men: Georgetown University politics professor Charles Kraus, attorney William A. Roberts, Fr. Edmund A. Walsh, a Jesuit and the head of Georgetown’s School of Foreign Service, and Wisconsin Senator Joseph McCarthy.</p>
<p>Of the four men, of course, the most notorious is Senator McCarthy.  Since his downfall in 1954 McCarthy has gone from politician to alcoholic fiend, an all-purpose chimera for anyone warning against everything from illegal searches to mildly aggressive questioning.  But the perhaps the more important man to history on the night of January 7 was Edmund Walsh, the Georgetown Jesuit.</p>
<p>Unlike McCarthy, Walsh is forgotten to history. ~ <a href="http://spectator.org/articles/48284/joe-mccarthys-jesuit">Mark Judge, The American Spectator</a></p></blockquote>
<p>*hmmm*  “Forgotten” or <strong><em>erased</em></strong>?</p>
<p>I’ll vote for the latter.</p>
<p>This information is out there, if you dig for it, and if you fear the Lord Jesus Christ <em>more</em> than you fear the entity behind all this.</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #800000;">&#8230;fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear Him which is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell.</span> ~ Matthew 10:28</p></blockquote>
<p>Whether or not my friends pick this up and run with it, only time will tell (but, understand, time is running out).</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>BEWARE THE MILITARY/INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX</strong></h2>
<p>The immortal words of President Dwight D. Eisenhower during <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWiIYW_fBfY&amp;">his Farewell Address</a> have become the rallying cry for awakened Americans sick of being drained by war.</p>
<p>After over a decade, citizens of the United States have nothing to show from their participation in the “War on Terror” except <a href="http://beforeitsnews.com/r2/?url=http://www.ibtimes.com/winner-most-iraq-war-contracts-kbr-395-billion-decade-1135905">lighter wallets</a>, horrifying <a href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/ellievhall/tsa-makes-a-little-girl-in-a-wheelchair-cry">humiliation at the airport terminal</a>&#8230;and <a href="http://www.washingtonian.com/articles/people/soldiers-take-one-step-at-a-time-with-prosthetic-limbs/">sons without arms, legs</a> and faces. Many are left with <a href="http://video.foxnews.com/v/2831886365001/parent-of-navy-seal-want-answers-about-sons-death/">no son at all.</a></p>
<p>But an increasingly-oppressive corporatized government has been reaping <em>massive</em> rewards in the science of population control.</p>
<p><a href="https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/drones-everywhere.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto[gallery-sjIm]"><img loading="lazy" class="alignright wp-image-603" src="https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/drones-everywhere.jpg" alt="drones everywhere" width="378" height="293" srcset="https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/drones-everywhere.jpg 483w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/drones-everywhere-150x116.jpg 150w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/drones-everywhere-300x232.jpg 300w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/drones-everywhere-24x19.jpg 24w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/drones-everywhere-36x28.jpg 36w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/drones-everywhere-48x37.jpg 48w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/drones-everywhere-400x310.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 378px) 100vw, 378px" /></a>“Drones” (known in the military as “Unmanned Arial Vehicles” or “UAVs”) are easily dealt with by determined nation-states. Russian-equipped Iranians downing <a href="http://rt.com/usa/iran-drone-hack-stealth-943/">a top secret U.S. Stealth drone</a> towards the end of 2011, bears this out. It was a drone overloaded with the best in American military technology and <a href="http://www.examiner.com/article/did-president-obama-give-a-top-secret-military-drone-to-iran">Barack Obama gifted it</a> to them.</p>
<p>Even modestly-knowledgeable and little-funded operations like those of the <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/29/drone-hacked-by-universit_n_1638100.html">University of Texas can hijack</a> a flying robot.</p>
<p>But for the common citizen, a drone can be a terrifying eavesdropper (<a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/22/world/asia/civilian-deaths-in-drone-strikes-cited-in-report.html?_r=0">and remote killer</a>) and their use in the continental United States is <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/nov/7/faa-chief-announces-progress-drone-regs/">now an Orwellian fact</a>.</p>
<p>Some of the personalities engineering this new <a href="http://theulstermanreport.com/2012/06/04/white-house-insider-barack-obamas-high-tech-snuff-films/">age of death from above</a> are right out of a science fiction movie.</p>
<p>Fast forward to 1 minute in of this promotional video where iRobot managing director Joe Dyer calls the drones and systems he sends into the field his “children” —then corrects himself.</p>
<p>http://youtu.be/45yWLgI40wM</p>
<p>Feeding the government war machine is so lucrative and so vast that contractors have their own contractor to help them land that big contract.</p>
<p>One such “source for competitive solutions” (always need the term “solutions” in your business catch-phrase) is the firm <a href="http://washingtontechnology.com/Home.aspx">“Washington Technology”</a>. They put out <a href="http://washingtontechnology.com/microsites/reports/peo-eis-guide/pm-dod-biometrics.aspx">an interesting article</a> explaining the latest push in citizen identification: “biometrics”.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>As the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) drives an ever-increasing demand for effective identification technology, biometric systems are being used to deliver these capabilities to the battlefield.</em></p>
<p><em>Biometric data includes measurable physical or behavioral characteristics used to uniquely identify an individual, such as handwritten signatures, iris scans, fingerprints, facial recognition, voice recognition, thermal signatures and DNA samples. The value of biometric systems lies in their ability to reliably and consistently identify an individual – thereby denying a terrorist or enemy the power of anonymity. To date, more than 16,000 individuals have been placed on the Department of Defense (DoD) Biometrics Watchlist (a list of identities of interest to the Department), including more than 1,800 high value targets; more than 1,600 insurgents have been placed on “security hold” – significant milestones in force protection.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>The military has now amassed extensive knowledge in the use of biometrics as well as built a staggering database of “terrorists”. Ellen Messmer of <a href="http://www.networkworld.com/news/2009/092309-dod-wartime-biometrics.html"><em>Network World</em> noted:</a></p>
<blockquote><p><em>When it comes to biometrics, the U.S. Department of Defense has gained vast experience during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, where the military has captured millions of fingerprints, facial images and iris scans in order to identify and collect details about terrorists and dangerous insurgents.</em></p>
<p><em>&#8230;Suspects are tracked down based on fingerprints found on exploded bomb fragments, for instance, that are matched against a database in the United States in less than three minutes using satellite communications.</em></p>
<p><em>&#8230;The Department of Defense is &#8230; eager to expand its biometrics efforts into new areas that include DNA, as well as what’s called “multi-modal biometrics” that fuse various types, like fingerprint or iris, in order to obtain a more perfect match on subjects.</em></p>
<p><em>The science of biometrics “strips away the ambiguity of a person’s identity,” said Dr. Myra Gray, director of the Biometrics Task Force. In “high-target tracking,” biometrics is a tool that will “deny anonymity to adversaries” and is now being used in Iraq and Afghanistan on detainees and suspected terrorists, Gray told attendees at the Biometric Consortium Conference going on in Tampa this week.</em></p>
<p><em>“We have 3.5 million records stored” on 2.3 million total identities, Gray said.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>All of this sounds really patriotic and inspiring&#8230;until you start redefining just who a “terrorist” is.</p>
<p>In 2009, then Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano <a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/183238507/Rightwing-Extremism-Current-Economic-and-Political-Climate-Fueling-Resurgence-in-Radicalization-and-Recruitment">put out a report</a> which stated <em>you</em>, Patriotic Americans, were the next “terror threat”; Pro Lifers, Christians, Libertarians, Tea Partiers and veterans returning from war. It is <em>your</em> face they wish to scan and record, and they’re doing it now.</p>
<p>The UK has been the premier test bed <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk/6108496.stm">for the Surveillance State</a> and now, even grocery chains are getting in on the action with facial recognition scanners mapping customers who just need their milk and bread.</p>

<p><strong>COMING TO AMERICA</strong></p>
<p>In San Diego County, California, police are now cataloging anyone they arrest via biometrics and a new “Tactical Identification System”. Your permission is neither wanted nor asked.</p>
<p>The local Bay Area NBC affiliate reported the story with this headline:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/california/Facial-Recognition-Once-a-Battlefield-Tool-Lands-in-San-Diego-County-231031341.html"><strong>Facial Recognition, Once a Battlefield Tool, Lands in San Diego County</strong></a></p>
<p>The quick and quiet roll-out of battlefield technology in the hands of local law enforcement has more than a few rattled;</p>
<blockquote><p><em>The use of this technology was rolled out without any public hearings or notice. The secrecy of the program has alarmed privacy experts and raised questions about whether San Diego is the leading edge of an alarming future – one in which few people escape cataloging in a government database.</em></p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto[gallery-sjIm]"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-604" src="https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist.jpg" alt="who is the ''terrorist''" width="690" height="238" srcset="https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist.jpg 1227w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist-150x52.jpg 150w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist-300x103.jpg 300w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist-768x265.jpg 768w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist-1024x353.jpg 1024w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist-24x8.jpg 24w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist-36x12.jpg 36w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist-48x17.jpg 48w, https://johnnycirucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/who-is-the-terrorist-400x138.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 690px) 100vw, 690px" /></a></p>
<p>Perhaps, you’re thinking, “Don’t get arrested” and everything will be OK.</p>
<p>In Texas, random citizens are corralled and intimidated into participating in a Federal “DNA screening” where they are asked to give saliva or blood.</p>
<p>The local Dallas/Ft. Worth news channel <a href="http://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/North-Texas-Drivers-Stopped-at-Roadblock-Asked-for-Saliva-Blood-232438621.html">seemed to have some trouble</a> getting details from either the contractor or the government:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>NBC DFW confirmed that the survey was done by a government contractor, the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation, which is based in Calverton, Md.</em></p>
<p><em>A company spokeswoman referred questions to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.</em></p>
<p><em>An agency spokeswoman sent an email confirming the government is conducting the surveys in 30 cities across the country in an effort to reduce impaired-driving accidents.</em></p>
<p><em>She did not respond to another email from NBC DFW asking specific questions about the program.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>DNA is a powerful, personal signature. It is all too easy to contrive a story about testing for impaired drivers as a ruse to have access to a citizen’s blood or saliva.</p>
<p>In Tennessee, drivers stopped at “check points” <a href="http://www.newschannel5.com/story/23298347/highway-patrol-to-conduct-no-refusal-dui-checks">don’t get asked.</a></p>
<p>It’s bad enough to see militarized police at such a “check point” but when you <a href="http://www.military.com/daily-news/2013/04/18/more-guard-callups-expected-after-boston-tragedy.html">add a soldier into the mix</a>, you get that twisting sensation in the pit of your stomach.</p>
<p>Federal, state and local governments try to put you at ease (or acclimate you?) by using National Guard soldiers instead of Active Duty. This gives the appearance of adhering to the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_Comitatus_Act">1878 <em>Posse Comitatus Act</em></a> which restricts the use of full-time military for domestic operations.</p>
<p>However, those same Guardsmen have been slowly assimilated into a Federal force structure via some disturbing precedents.</p>
<p>Many of us have seen <a href="http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/military/2007-08-27-guard-deployments_n.htm">the toll long deployments</a> have taken on the National Guard serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. You have to stretch “citizen safety” pretty far to defend sending part-time Guardsmen to participate in the “War on Terror”.</p>
<p>But you may not know that the “state militias” have extended their reach far beyond the Middle East.</p>
<p>* The New Jersey National Guard has <a href="http://www.humanevents.com/2012/08/28/new-jersey-soldiers-perform-assault-and-support-for-fire-missions-in-africa/">deployed to Botswana</a>.</p>
<p>* The South Carolina National Guard recently <a href="http://www.stripes.com/news/new-rotation-of-soldiers-heads-to-kosovo-1.188162">deployed in support of Bill Clinton’s</a> war in Kosovo (yes, there are still rotations to Kosovo, Bosnia and Serbia, all invisible to the mainstream media).</p>
<p>* The Tennessee National Guard is <a href="http://www.army.mil/article/75933/">“partnering” with Uganda.</a></p>
<p>* Two years after Lithuania declared her independence, she partnered with American military: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pennsylvania_%E2%80%93_Lithuania_National_Guard_Partnership"><em>the Pennsylvania National Guard.</em></a></p>
<p>* A Missouri National Guardsman was <a href="http://www.miamiherald.com/2012/07/05/v-print/2882804_us-soldier-killed-on-humanitarian.html">killed in Guatemala.</a></p>
<p>The Guard is stretched so thin bouncing all over the world that, when they’re needed at home, <a href="http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2004/May/17/mn/mn01a.html">they aren’t there.</a></p>
<p>The culmination of this migration has been centralizing the National Guard and giving the Guard’s highest-ranking officer a seat on the Active Duty Joint Chiefs of Staff. It is a move that left <a href="http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/national-guard-gets-joint-chiefs-of-staff-slot-for-no-apparent-reason/">James Joyner of <em>Outside the Beltway</em></a> baffled:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>In a move that makes no sense whatsoever, Air National Guard General Craig McKinley has become a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. &#8230;</em></p>
<p><em>The National Guard Bureau’s top officer is now a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. A provision in the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act, signed into law Dec. 31 by President Obama, adds the Guard leader to the nation’s highest military advisory group.</em></p>
<p><em>The Joint Chiefs of Staff advises the president on national security matters.</em></p>
<p><em>Its members voiced firm opposition during a hearing on Capitol Hill in November as lawmakers pushed to create a seat for the Guard.</em></p>
<p><em>During the Nov. 10 hearing of the Senate Armed Services Committee, the six four-star generals voiced opposition to the proposal, saying it would create needless confusion and reduce their authority.</em></p>
<p><em>“There is no compelling military need for this change,” Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs, said at the time. &#8230;</em></p>
<p><em>So, the entire Joint Chiefs and the Secretary of Defense opposed this move and yet it was made anyway? Why?</em></p></blockquote>
<p>—Baffled, unless you have plans for those National Guard soldiers to carry out an important Presidential mission.</p>
