America’s escalating race war: Who benefits from a mind-controlled Charleston shooter?

Screenshot from the alleged shooter’s first court hearing

On Wednesday June 17th, nine African-Americans were shot to death in a church in South Carolina, allegedly by a 21-year-old white man named Dylann Storm Roof. The attack took place during evening prayers in one of the country’s oldest churches, at Charleston’s Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal church. The church has one of the largest black congregations in the US South.

On the same night as the Charleston shooting, persons unknown shot up another church in Memphis, Tennessee. No one was killed and wounded that attack, but this could be the start of a new ‘trend’ in the area of mass shootings in the USA.

South Carolina’s governor said: “If this can happen in a church, then we’ve got more praying to do.” Her statements are typical of government and media vacuous platitudes in the aftermath of such horrific events, the real message being: ‘this was done to all of us by all of us, we must stay strong, stay together, and you the people must believe even harder in what your leaders are telling you.’

Was the alleged shooter motivated by hatred for Blacks? On the face of it, that would appear to be the case. He is reported to have said he wanted to ‘start a race war‘. But it is not everyday that white supremacists cross the line from just being mouthy racists to calmly executing people.

The liberal, progressive viewpoint highlights the inconsistency of casting the Charleston shooting as the work of a mentally unstable lone nut, while the ‘black community’ would have been blamed if the shoe was on the other foot. While this is certainly noteworthy because it speaks to institutionalized, pervasive racism in the US, it’s missing the crucial question of who or what stands to benefit from increased racial tensions. It certainly isn’t ordinary people in the US, no matter their race or class.

Comedian and social critic Jon Stewart (among others) is blaming ‘society’ for what happened in Charleston. ‘We’ did this, ‘we’ are to blame, is the message.

But as Tonto said to the Lone Ranger, “Who’s ‘we’, white man?” This is not ‘we’ who did this. This is ‘they’ who did this, the same operatives who carry out or set up most mass shootings on behalf of the utterly corrupt owners of the US. Events blamed on ‘Muslim terrorists’ exploit the resulting terror to unite the population in the direction of hating ‘the other’ over there and supporting US imperial expansion. Events blamed on ‘lone nuts’ exploit the resulting terror to divide the population in the direction of hating ‘the other’ here.

With such a conspicuous attack at the heart of the black community in the US striking at a most inconspicuous time – within a year of Ferguson, Baltimore and a number of other police murders of black Americans – alternative and conservative media smells a rat, but believe, in their rush to defend guns, that the stench is coming from a push by the Feds to impose strict gun control laws.

Do you know how we know that gun control laws could not possibly be the motive behind these shootings? Because, despite all the talk, there has been no net change in US citizens’ right to bear arms. If anything, the case could be made that, rather than becoming tighter, gun control laws in the US are becoming more lax. And do you know what else? Gun sales increase after such events and then remain high. The ‘deep government’ is no doubt well aware of this fact.

Dylann Storm Roof didn’t want to “start a race war”. But the entities speaking and operating through him very obviously DO want to start a race war. Even if we assume that Roof’s trial-by-media is in the ballpark – that he was present at that church in Charleston that evening, and that he did single-handedly kill all those people – that doesn’t exclude the strong probability that he is also another hapless dupe in a long line of hapless dupes.

How plausible is the idea of a ‘Manchurian candidate’, a mind-programmed assassin? Is there any evidence that, if someone chose to, they could ‘program’ or hypnotize another person in such a way that, against their own conscious nature, they would go as far as to kill another person(s)? The case of the alleged murderer of Bobby Kennedy, Sirhan Sirhan, appears to provide at least circumstantial evidence that it is possible.

Apart from the ballistic evidence that more shots were fired at Kennedy than were in Sirhan’s gun, that Kennedy was shot behind the ear when Sirhan was only ever in front of him (suggesting a setup with a second shooter), and the fact that Sirhan appears genuinely unable, to this day, to remember killing Kennedy, there is also the fascinating testimony of doctors and his (former) lawyer, Laurence Teeter:

First of all, right after the assassination, Sirhan spoke to a prosecutor, and he engages in a very articulate colloquy about somebody else’s case. Not his own, somebody else’s. The prosecutor, sensing that something is wrong with this scenario, asks Sirhan questions to determine if he knows where he is. It quickly becomes apparent that Sirhan has no idea that he hasn’t even been taken before a judge to be arraigned. He’s totally not oriented, he has no contact with reality. He doesn’t know what has happened. This is right after he’s been taken into custody. That right there is pretty powerful evidence that he’s operating in an altered state of mind.

In his cell, Sirhan is met with experiments performed by defense psychiatrist Bernard Diamond. Bernard Diamond holds up a quarter in front of Sirhan’s face and Sirhan goes right into a hypnotic trance, indicating to the doctor, according to testimony presented in trial that Sirhan was an experienced hypnotic subject and had undergone hypnosis before the assassination. Well, right there is the basis for laying the foundation of the argument that Sirhan doesn’t deserve the death penalty, and there is certainly the basis for exploring the possibility that he was programmed. And then there is more that materializes along these lines.

Dr. Diamond tells Sirhan in trance, ‘Sirhan, when I wake you up, I’m going to touch my forehead and you’re going to go and climb the bars of your cell like a monkey’. So he wakes him up, touches his forehead, up the bars of the cell goes Sirhan and looks down at the doctor with monkey-like expressions. The doctor says, ‘Sirhan, who told you to do that?’ ‘No one! I’m doing it on my own!’ A perfect example of Sirhan’s high level of hypnotizability and programmability. He’s been programmed to do something he wouldn’t ordinarily do. With no memory of being programmed, with no knowledge that he’s acting in response to instructions from a programmer. It’s a perfect example of how this assassination was arranged, and there are others.

Hypnosis is the direct, ‘hands on’, approach to mind programing, but there is also the indirect ‘voices in your head’ approach, the technology for which is, by now, almost dated. From a 2003 New York Times article:

”Watch that lady over there,” he says, unable to conceal his boyish pride for the gadget in his giant hand. ”This is really cool.”

Woody Norris aims the silvery plate at his quarry. A burly brunette 200 feet away stops dead in her tracks and peers around, befuddled. She has walked straight into the noise of a Brazilian rain forest — then out again. Even in her shopping reverie, here among the haircutters and storefront tax-preparers and dubious Middle Eastern bistros, her senses inform her that she has just stepped through a discrete column of sound, a sharply demarcated beam of unexpected sound. ”Look at that,” Norris mutters, chuckling as the lady turns around. ”She doesn’t know what hit her.”

Norris is demonstrating something called HyperSonic Sound (HSS). The aluminum plate is connected to a CD player and an odd amplifier — actually, a very odd and very new amplifier — that directs sound much as a laser beam directs light. Over the past few years, mainly in secret, he has shown the device to more than 300 major companies, and it has slackened a lot of jaws. […]

‘See, the way your brain perceives it, the sound is being created right here,” Norris explains to the Arbus girls, lifting a palm to the side of his head. ”That’s why it’s so clear. Feels like it’s inside your skull, doesn’t it?”

In the years Norris has demonstrated HSS, he says, that’s been the universal reaction: the sound is inside my head. So that’s the way he has started to describe it.

Just to check the distances, I pace out a hundred yards and see if the thing is really working. Norris pelts me with the Handel [concerto] and, to illustrate the directionality of the beam, subtly turns the plate side to side. And the sound is inside my head, roving between my ears in accord with each of Norris’s turns.

DARPA was working on such a device in 2008:

Sonic Projector

The goal of the Sonic Projector program is to provide the services with a method of surreptitious audio communication at distances over 1 km. Sonic Projector technology is based on the non-linear interaction of sound in air translating an ultrasonic signal into audible sound. The Sonic Projector will be designed to be a man-deployable system, using hardware and signal processing algorithms which result in clear audible signals at the desired location and unintelligible sound at locations away from the desired location. The Sonic Projector system could be used to conceal communications for special operations forces and hostage rescue missions, and to disrupt enemy activities.

We should also remember that the CIA (and others) have officially been experimenting with the behavioral engineering of humans (in many different ways) since the 1950s. Are we to assume that, during the course of their research, which was conducted at over 80 institutions across the US, including 44 colleges and universities, as well as hospitals, prisons and pharmaceutical companies, they never stumbled upon the fact that some people can be hypnotized and ‘programmed’ to do pretty much whatever the programmer wants?

Sirhan Sirhan, immediately after he apparently did not shoot RFK.

Placed in the context of all that has happened in the US recently, the Charleston mass shooting strikes us as a rather transparent next step in a process of deliberately increasing racial tensions in the USA. From the Ferguson riots last year, to two cops being executed in a police car in New York City early this year, followed by the Baltimore riots; but those were all ‘police vs black community’. Now we appear to be moving into ‘white community vs black’.

Conditions are ripening for further social division in the US. With the growing prospects for a major economic crisis (also largely manufactured), the stage appears to be set for a perfect storm that will leave no one untouched. Make no mistake, the coming chaos is manufactured, its purpose the consolidation of global control by a regime of psychopaths who live for the ‘pleasure’ of exploiting, tormenting and ultimately destroying as many human beings as possible.

Problem solved: NATO and EU want to bomb ‘refugee terrorists’ they created

2015, not 1984

The latest chapter in NATO’s ‘anti-terror’ operations seems to be opening up, again in Libya.

In case you didn’t know, ‘ISIS jihadists’ are coming to Europe and the UK! Disguised as Muslim refugees they are “hell-bent on committing atrocities,” thus the necessity of ‘bombing them over there so we don’t have to bomb them here’. The story goes that ISIS is ‘blending in’ with refugees on their boat crossings to Europe, thus ALL refugees coming to Europe could potentially be ‘terrorists’. So, bomb them!

The US (NATO) which is responsible for causing the humanitarian crisis and, as it happens, ISIS itself, is once again offering a ‘solution’ to a problem it created. If you don’t want hordes of refugees, then don’t bomb their homes; that’s the simple truth that is lost on NATO warmongers. But the price of killing innocent people – as Madeleine Albright would say – is always “worth it”. Especially when you can just call the refugees you create “terrorists”, and threaten to kill them too.

NATO is not only capitalizing on the ISIS ‘threat’, it’s using the ‘concern’ about the refugee crisis it created to continue to ‘manage’ the Middle East in a way that ensures Western control of the oil spigot and keeps Russia and China out of southwest Asia. Another Western intervention will, of course, cause even more displaced persons and spawn more terrorists in a never-ending loop, but don’t expect the goons running NATO to care or have the perspicacity to foresee that inevitable consequence. It’s a twisted world of psychopaths in power that wouldn’t appear in your worst nightmares.

In a recent report from the Guardian, we learn that:

The European Union has drawn up plans for military attacks in Libya to try to curb the influx of migrants across the Mediterranean by targeting the trafficking networks. It is to launch a bid on Monday to secure a UN mandate for armed action in Libya’s territorial waters.

Sometimes all you can do is gape in awe at the depraved and twisted mindset of these psychopathic warmongers and their collaborators/enablers. The 2011 NATO carpet bombing of Libya, resulting in the obliteration of the wealthiest and most stable country in Africa, and the death of up to a half million people since then (no one’s bothering to count), was justified under ‘R2P’ – the ‘responsibility to protect’. The US (Empire) took it upon itself to protect the lives of ordinary Libyans from their “evil dictator”, who was killing them by the thousands, we were told. That was, of course, complete and utter bullshit, but it didn’t matter; Washington, London and Brussels settled on a noble cause to sell their electorates, and they just had to ‘make the deets stick’ (U.S. State Department euphemism for ‘make this a reality, and to hell with the facts’). They “sexed up” the Libyan dossier just like Iraq, and the people swallowed it, again.

Now here we are, barely four years later, and the same Western leaders are telling us they need to ‘do’ Libya again… only this time they’re going to bomb the very people they said they had to protect last time because… well, you never know, they might be terrorists. British Sun newspaper reporter Katie Hopkins, in an op-ed about the tens of thousands fleeing the raging violence her government helped start in North Africa, was publicly and internationally condemned last month when she compared migrants attempting to cross the Mediterranean with cockroaches. Here’s what she wrote:

Rescue boats? I’d use gunships to stop migrants, May 19th, 2015

“No, I don’t care. Show me pictures of coffins, show me bodies floating in water, play violins and show me skinny people looking sad. I still don’t care.”

“Because in the next minute you’ll show me pictures of aggressive young men at Calais, spreading like norovirus on a cruise ship… These two populations are the same. The migrants harassing Brit truckers at the port are the same as the vagrants making the perilous trip across the Med.”

“What we need are gunships sending these boats back to their own country. You want to make a better life for yourself? Then you had better get creative in Northern Africa.”

“Make no mistake, these migrants are like cockroaches. They might look a bit ‘Bob Geldof’s Ethiopia circa 1984’, but they are built to survive a nuclear bomb. They are survivors.”

Yes, what she wrote is nasty, ignorant of the context that created the situation and typical of a right-winger’s solution to any problem: ‘kill them all; God will know His own’.

But take note of how, in the space of just one month, Hopkins’ derided solution – to keep the desperate migrants at bay under the barrel of a gun – is now perfectly acceptable to Westerners of all political persuasion because they have eaten up the lie that ‘ISIS is coming to get them’. Hopkins, therefore, was merely expressing what all, or most, Westerners wanted to do – ‘keep darkie down and in his place in Africa’ – but didn’t feel comfortable being seen to agree with until the right narrative (lie) had been served, at which point their liberalism can gush forth in poetic tones – ‘R2P’, ‘freedom and democracy’, ‘evil people-smugglers’, ‘terrorists who hate us for our freedoms’, etc, etc.

The Russians were against this absurd proposal from the beginning, saying that they would veto any such UN resolution, no doubt because it sees such a plan for what it is: another attempt at ‘humanitarian’ intervention in Libya by the US-led Atlantic Alliance. Russian-Chinese opposition, and thus no UN Security Council approval, apparently led to the proposition being dropped by the EU, at least in the UN. Not to be deterred from the practice of their favorite sport of abusing Africans, yesterday the EU agreed with itself that it should still take military action against the refugees it created:

According to the EU foreign policy chief, the operation will consist of three main phases – intelligence gathering, inspection and detection of smuggling boats, and destruction of the captured vessels…

Following Russia’s resistance to the plan, we’ve seen an intensification of the ‘ISIS-is-coming-to-invade-Europe-disguised-as-Muslim-refugees’ charade. This narrative has been blasted through the Western media before, but it appears that NATO talking-head, Jens Stoltenberg, has now received his marching orders and is rushing headlong to ‘make the deets stick’.

For anyone having trouble just taking Stoltenberg’s words at face value, Rita Katz of ’24/7 Jihadi Watch’ SITE Intelligence Group fame has obtained (produced?) – right on time – photos showing that ISIS isn’t only plotting to invade Europe, they’re already here! – roaming around Italy, sightseeing, and counting down ’till zero hour’ when they will blow all of Christendom to kingdom come, starting with the Roman Colosseum.

Frightening: This picture, supposedly showing how ISIS fighters are in Rome, was shared on Twitter
Terror: The pictures taken by landmarks and in train stations were translated and shared by ‘watch-group’ SIte Intelligence
Attack: Another set of images shows vehicles of Italian emergency services, showing the terrorists’ boldness
Threat: The latest posts are not the first time Rome, the home of Christianity, has been made a target

If you took a step back, put down your ponerized goggles for a minute and actually looked at these photos, without being told that they are in any way related to ISIS, what would you think? These photos, like the rest of the gibberish that SITE and Rita Katz come up with, look like they came from the febrile brain of a complete lunatic. If the shoe fits…

How much of an inveterate coincidence theorist do you have to be before you admit that the consistency with which “terrorists” pop up in a foreign country and threaten the West just as Western governments are proposing to bomb that country, is no coincidence at all? The pattern couldn’t be more obvious after so many interventions justified in like manner since 9/11. Yemen, the Balkans, and now – allegedly – the EU; the al Qaeda/ISIS hordes always appear on the scene when the West needs ‘a noble reason’ to further their war-plans and silence domestic criticism. Duh!

It’s unlikely Russia can do much to save Libya from another mauling, but we wonder just what assurances Kerry was seeking from Putin in Sochi a few days ago. The silver lining, if there is one, is that with each new global crisis, the stench of stark, raving psychopathology driving the Western hive-mind leeches up closer and closer to the surface.

Historical anomaly: U.S. WWII propaganda film ACCURATELY portrays Russia and ‘most epic battle in history’

I’ve just watched an excellent 1943 documentary by Oscar Award-winning director Frank Capra, and produced by the US government. It’s a rare thing to behold: an accurate – in fact, a rather glowing – portrayal of Russia and its historical role as shock absorber to invading hordes. The film was recently uploaded to the YouTube channel of the US National Archives but, as far as I can make out, has been publicly available since 2011.

While the bulk of the film uses contemporary footage collected by US Army Intelligence during the war to capture the horror, scale and intensity of the Nazi invasion of Russia, and how the Russians ultimately defeated the Nazis through brilliant strategy and sheer force of will, the first part also goes into some historical context about previous invasions of Russia, as well as important geographical detail about the nature of ‘Russia’.

I can’t vouch for the film’s complete historical accuracy. It is, after all, Pentagon propaganda! At one point, for example, the narrator mentions in passing that Russia was victim to Kaiser Wilhelm’s ‘tyrannical warmongering’ in the early 20th century. I can tell you, with some certainty, having recently read Hidden History: The Secret Origins of the First World War, that Germany was not at fault for WW1 (in fact, it tried to prevent it).

Nevertheless, Hitler’s Operation Barbarossa in 1941 does fit a pattern of Russia historically being on the receiving end of aggressive invasions. For just a brief sliver in time, it was apparently in the US government’s interests to accurately represent the ‘most epic battlefront in known history’. Not only that, it also suited US interests to accurately represent Russia as a large ‘community of nations’. And that, essentially, is what defines her (both Imperial Russia and the USSR); Russia is a patchwork ‘country of many countries’, a vast territory comprising many ethnicities and nationalities.

Here’s the film:

The incredible thing is that not two years after this film was made, Russia became the new ‘enemy of freedom’. In fact, we now know that the Atom Bomb was dropped on Japan in 1945 specifically to ‘send Russia a message‘. The international financiers pulling the strings behind Hitler and the Western Allies could not allow a parallel ‘United Nations’ to exist on the vast Eurasian landmass while they set about creating one centered on New York City.

And thus began the policy of maligning, containing, and isolating Russia behind an ‘iron curtain’, until eventually peoples all along its periphery said ‘enough!’ and made a break for freedom and independent nationhood when the USSR fell… only to fall into the debt-trap set for them by the international banking elite. Recently, of course, ‘Russia the nation-state’ has itself emerged from the collapse of the USSR (and the subsequent ‘economic shock therapy’ applied by Wall Street) and regained a sense of its historical mission: to facilitate the inevitable integration of Eurasia and all its peoples, minus Western hegemony.
