CRISIS AND IMPOTENCY

 
 
What America witnessed this Sunday morning on ABC, CBS and NBC was a nearly beaten Barack Obama struggling to maintain his utopian faith, his hope for radical change, against the catastrophic effects of his inept and blundering presidency in domestic and foreign affairs. What we saw today was a willfully blind President tragically drifting toward crisis and impotency as America's economy, world standing and military power weakens, worsens and wanes.

THE COMING COLLISION BETWEEN AMERICA AND RUSSIA

 
Most of you have heard by now about Obama's bad timing in choosing to announce his terrible decision to scrap deployment of the missile defense shield in Poland and the Czech Republic; for the announcement came on the 70th anniversary of Stalin's brutal invasion of Poland, an ominous sign of coming woe. While many are discounting this as meaningless coincidence believing Russia wouldn't dare invade Poland again what they've forgotten was the event of February 10th which was a warning to Obama about diplomacy with Russia and foreshadows a coming crisis in our relations-a crisis that could rival the perilous days of JFK and the Cuban Missile Crisis. For February 10th was the day when space history was made with the devastating collision of a US and Russian satellite over the Siberian wastelands (see).

The reader may recall that this unprecedented crash occurred just seven days after fascist Iran entered the space age with the launching of its first satellite. He may also recall that just three days before the crash Joe Biden was in Germany at a security conference in Munich. Indeed, it was at this meeting, in the city where Hitler and Chamberlain set in motion the invasion of Poland and World War II, that Biden announced that the new administration would give the utmost priority to repairing US/Russian relations (see).

Indeed, as Munich was the place of the most foolish and disastrous act of appeasement in world history, with the betrayal of Czechoslovakia, Obama's decision will prove, I believe, to have been a costly or fatal mistake setting in motion a train of events leading to conflict and possibly war. Because of its concession on the missile shield the administration and Moscow are now on a collision course as the hungry Russian Bear seeing weakness in Obama will press forward with its plans to restore its old empire at the expense of US power and world peace.

Postscript:

If Obama did as he claimed: scapped the wrong missile defense system for the right one-for a more sophisticated, cost effective system that makes better sense for safeguarding our nation and allies, then why was the Kremlin so delighted with the change? Why did Putin laud the decision as "correct and brave, " and the Iranians say it was "positive."  How could a decision welcomed by our enemies be a positive sign that we did the right thing, that we're safer and more secure because of it?

Keep in mind the man who made this decision and his terribly flawed history on missile defense issues. Keep in mind that during the Reagan years, when an activist in the Nuclear Freeze Movement, Obama opposed the deployment of cruise and Pershing II missiles in Europe which proved crucial to defeating the Soviet Union and ending the Cold War. Obama, the anti-Reagan, was wrong then and is wrong now. Having learned nothing from our victory in the Cold War, and hating all things Reagan, Obama has abandoned the Reagan model for diplomacy with Russia. If it were Obama and not Reagan negotiating at Reykjavik he would not have found the strength or wisdom to walk out on Gorbachev*; he would have foolishly sat there amateur that he is making ruinous concessions; and the Evil Empire would have survived to this day with Eastern Europe and Ukraine still tyrannized under its rule.

Instead of "peace through strength" it's peace through weakness, accomodation and folly; kindergarten diplomacy, amateur hour: SPEAK SOFTLY AND CARRY A TOOTHPICK. As the inept and blundering Obama tries in vain to repair relations with Putin Russia remains resurgent evily chipping away at US influence, prestige and power; undermining us whenever and wherever it can in Europe, the Middle East and Latin America. It's full steam ahead in deserting our friends, emboldening our foes and dismantling the Pax America. Our war weary nation is about to be rudely awakened as Obama blindly leads us into peril.

 
*This was a game changer for Gorbachev, the straw that broke the Kremiln's back. Gorbachev said afterwards about Reagan's walkout:"I realized then that a new world was possible."

BARACK OBAMA AND THE MORALITY OF THE LIE

Why does Barack Obama lie and lie and lie? And then shamelessly lie about lying*? What is it that drives this man to damage his integrity and veracity whenever he parts his lips to speak about his policies? The answer is this: When your mental and moral existence is ideologically defined by a BIG LIE about human salvation, destiny and history; a lie that's been discredited by historical experience and is hugely unpopular with the people; the lie of state created equality bringing happiness and the good life to all; the lie of Communism, Socialism and Egalitarianism; in short, the lie that turned the 20th century into a graveyard for millions; when this lie is your truth and reason for being then deceiving the public into believing that it's something very different-something traditional, familiar and good-becomes a moral necessity.

*At one Townhall meeting on health care Obama told the crowd: "My only fault is that I'm truthful to a fault."


The Egalitarian lies for justice, lies for morality, lies for social redemption and humanity; he lies for his distorted view of reality believing that he has the final truth, the ultimate answer to mankind's manifold ills. Such ideologues believe their own lies; see no reality outside of their lies; accept no facts that contradict their lies; will not let opposition stop their lies believing that lying their way to the "truth" and deceiving a nation is completely and nobly justified. The end not only justifies the means it excuses it.

Every one of Obama's lies on economic, energy and healthcare policy is informed by his war on free enterprise, the profit motive, prosperity and liberty which he believes keeps society in a state of mortal sin: in perpetual economic and social inequality; which keeps us from realizing the true revolution, the only real revolution, the utopian revolution of a classless society of economic and social equals domestically and globally. No high or low, rich or poor, weak or strong, superior or inferior; a society of uniformity, conformity and sameness like a regimented army "all for one and one for all" and no one for himself.

It is this impossible dream at war with God and human nature* that is blindly driving Obama to political doom; driving him like Captain Ahab in Melville's Moby D-ck willing to destroy his ship and crew to hunt down and kill the great white whale-the evil beast which to Obama's mind is DEMOCRATIC CAPITALISM.

*God is not a socialist if He were we human beings would have all been created the same, the same in spirit, soul and body; a good analogy of a socialist God's creation would be the uniform society of robots in the Will Smith film I Robot. Intellectually Socialism is only compatible with Atheism. To believe in a Creator God and be a socialist like Obama is to be involved in a huge, irreconcilable contradiction.

In Melville's novel Ahab lost his leg to Moby D-ck in a previous voyage and has sworn to avenge his loss by capturing and killing him. Likewise the modern Ahab in the White House is a morally injured man outraged by the inequalities, "injustices" and "oppression" he sees in society; the inequalities of income, outcome and condition; the "injustices" caused by economic and intellectual liberty, the free use of our faculties and God given talents and gifts for selfish reasons or social ones. Inequality exists in America falling short of her true potential and founding ideal of a "more perfect Union*;" and Obama is hell bent on changing it whatever the cost or consequence; however unpopular and massive the opposition; however damaging to our country's security and well being.

*This is Obama's name for what LBJ called "the Great Society."

Obama once said that his "personal salvation is impossible without collective salvation." He said that "we can only succeed individually when society succeeds together." Meaning that America saved from injustice, unfairness, inequality and greed is OBAMA REDEEMED. Those who oppose Obama's plans for collective social salvation are keeping him unfulfilled in a morally miserable and broken state. Until society is repaired and socialized Obama will remain in damnation a spiritually imperfect and incomplete being*, a denizen of capitalist hell. As with Ahab in the novel Obama believes that his goals are divine and "immutably decreed," that he will "overcome all things" by whatever means and that victory in the end shall be his.

*As this moral posturing can't be defended rationally is it any wonder that the Left hates dissent and wants to shut down debate?


That Obama is that monomaniacal, insane and self-destructive is proved by his endless train of deceptions and lies in the face of indisputable facts on climate change, healthcare costs, the printing of money and deficit spending; he can't stop or help himself; he's been a true believer for thirty years; the lie has become second nature and there's no changing him. Obama's all sail and no anchor, with "righteous winds" blowing at his back. He's convinced that God Almighty, his "partner" in politics, has given him this time in history-this rare unique moment which may never come again-for "fundamental and foundational change;" to radicalize and revolutionize America; to rearrange our national priorities and redirect our destiny come what may. The time has come to end the American Dream; to "outgrow childish things*;" to save us from the sins of self-interest, avarice and greed; to free us from the cause of inequality: free markets and individual liberty-the great principles undergirding this Republic; the ideals that define our destiny making us the beacon of hope and wonder of the world.

*Quoted from his inaugural address.


In the end Captain Ahab was defeated and killed by Moby D-ck entangled in his own harpoon with the injured whale dragging him out to sea. And so will it be for Barack Obama as his obsessive quest to subdue and destroy the whale of free enterprise, the greatest engine of human progress and prosperity, ends in failure and political suicide for himself, his party and egalitarian creed. Liberty is America's destiny as Obama's disastrous failure in Statism will prove to all posterity.

Postscript: The Class Warfare President


President Obama at Pittsburgh International Airport

On Tuesday when Obama delivered an impassioned speech at an AFL-CIO convention in Pittsburgh his presidency it seems reached a new and disturbing low. What I saw was an angry, bitter, frustrated man desperately reaching out to his base by resorting to the demagoguery of division and class warfare. Gone was the great healer and uniter of last year's campaign; gone the post partisan candidate and social peacemaker. Gone the promise of a new and enlightened leadership. Obama's vision of a unified America gave way to a country divided between haves and have nots as he promised his union base economic justice with free health care security and government handouts to all.

Obama became the Defender in Chief not for every American but for the working poor; the laborer against the rich, exploiting, oppressive employer who makes millions off their backs while they work for scraps struggling to make ends meet-a speech that could have come from Michael Moore and foreshadows punishing tax hikes.

This was the real Obama taking off his gloves and showing his hand; this is his real distorted vision of this country and world view, declaring himself president of one America against the other, dividing citizen from citizen, class from class, brother from brother. The great uniter is dead as he intensifies the war between liberty and tyranny, freedom and equality, Right and Left

Postscript II: Leadership in Crisis

Coming on the heels of the racifying of Joe Wilson for his liar remark in the House Obama's class warfare speech in Pittsburgh is an ugly sign that he and his handlers are resorting to the politics of division to save his failing agenda and presidency. Those who accuse Obama of dishonesty and trickery on health care reform are branded red neck racists, or racial traders if they're black. Questioning the wisdom and success of his economic policies means siding with the oppressive exploiting, greedy rich against the working poor and unemployed. Criticizing his diplomatic efforts and foreign policy makes you a warmonger opposed to world peace. This is symptomatic of leadership in crisis; of intellectual and moral bankruptcy; a White House, liberal media and Democratic Party empty of ideas and losing their grip on reality.

Obama and Acorn are the signs the radical Left is in its End Time.

GOD, TED KENNEDY AND SAME SEX MARRIAGE

 
 
John Adams Courthouse home to the
Massechesetts Supreme Court
 
In my essay "Evidence of Divine Providence Supporting the Pro-Life Movement (see)" I was one among many pro-lifers who divined Heaven’s disapproval of the practice of abortion in the uncanny inexplicable terrible crash of a Pilatus 12 airplane hired by the owner of 17 abortion clinics in California. For the plane eerily crashed into a Catholic cemetery which had on its grounds a sacred memorial to the victims of Roe v. Wade properly called "The Tomb to the Unborn."

Similarly, I see marks of DIVINE DISFAVOR toward same sex marriage in Ted Kennedy’s terrible brain seizure last year. For Kennedy, a Roman Catholic Senator from Massachusetts, suffered his near fatal attack on the forth anniversary of the Massachusetts Supreme Court ruling legalizing marriage for same sex couples*. As it is the sick moral relativism and anything goes nihilism of the cultural Left that drives their crusade to legalize same sex unions Kennedy suffered his near fatal attack from a cancerous tumor on the LEFT SIDE of his brain foreshadowing, I believe, the political collapse of the secular Left and their eventual defeat on this issue**. 
 
*Kennedy had his seizure on May 17, 2008 four years from the date of the Massachusetts court ruling.
 
**The day of Kennedy's seizure was pregnant with meaning. Watch for my upcoming work Barack Obama: The "Curse" of the Kennedy's and the Fatal Star of Socialism.

BEN BERNANKE AND THE END OF THE RECESSION? (NEW POSTSCRIPT)

Federal Reserve Bank Board Chairman Ben Bernanke speaks at the Brookings Institution in Washington, Tuesday, Sept. 15, 2009.

"The worst recession since 1930 is probably over" said Fed Chief Bernanke "but warned that unemployment is likley to rise above 9.7%" into double digit land. All this coming from the man who assured us in 2005, when advisor to President Bush, that the housing boom wouldn't go bust and there was no recession on the horizon. All this coming on the anniversry of Bloody Monday when Lehman Brothers filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and the great financial meltdown began. Funny Bernanke should mention the year 1930; for that was the fatal year when a hapless Herbert Hoover turned the recession into a depression. See OBAMA, BERNANKE AND THE GREAT DEPRESSION.

Postscript: Obama Goes Protectionist
 
As Congress's orgy of deficit spending and Bernanke's inflationary monetary policy force China to dump the dollar by the billions, Herbert Hoover Obama goes protectionist and starts an unwinnable trade war with China to appease Big Labor*. It's 1930 all over again with the difference that the Fed is dramatically expanding instead of contracting the money supply.
 
*The 55% tariff on tires imported from China to payback United Steelworkers for their election support.

THE DEATH OF ASAF RAMON


 

Asaf Ramon with a picture and dedication from his father (Photo: AFP)

Yesterday's terrible F-16 crash in Israel which took the life of Captain Asaf Ramon, eldest son of Israeli Air Force pilot Ilan Ramon-who died aboard the Space Shuttle Columbia and participated in the attack on Saddam's Osiraq nuclear site-is a warning sign to Israel about its planned attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. It is a warning of deadly consequences for Israel and the Middle East if the IAF goes through with its plans. This is a reversal of my previous hawkish position which was based on a somewhat faulty interpretation of the Columbia disaster and my animus toward fascist Iran*. Asaf Ramon's death is a game changer for me; it has clarified much that was hidden; it is an additional piece to the puzzle in the coming violent end of the mullah regime prefigured by Columbia's demise and Ilan Ramon's death. Asaf's death was not a mere accident; it was, like his father's death-over the town of Palestine, Texas-an Act of Providence. A young life of great promise was sacrificed yesterday for the greater good of Israel, the people of Iran and the Middle East. I will have more to say about this tragedy in a reinterpretation of my work on the Columbia disaster (see featured posts). May God grant Asaf Ramon a speedy journey to Heaven and bring solace to his family, friends and people.
 
* My position was that a conventional Osiraq like strike against Iran's nuclear sites would be too risky; that Israel would have to cripple the regime along with destroying those sites.

ZEROING IN ON OBAMA



Because Barack Obama is the first President in US history whose last name begins with the letter "O" this has led many to facetiously call him "Captain Zero" or "Camrade Zero" or, my favorite "Barry Worse Than Zero, the Sub-Zero President".

But when the term "Zero" is used to signify the devastating impact Obama's leadership and policies are having on the economy, foreign policy and the Democratic Party what it means is this.

SUMMERS' BUMS OBAMANOMICS (WITH A NEW POSTSCRIPT ON OBAMA, OSAMA & 9/11 ECONOMICS)


             Larry Summers

Confirming my theory that Obama's mad and reckless rush into health care reform was born from panic due to his loss of confidence in his own recovery program and Fed monetary policy, Larry Summers warned on Friday that "Unemployment will remain unacceptably high for years (see)." For years? Meaning what? Double digit unemployment until 2012? What a way to end the summer admitting that Obamanomics is a bummer (see).

Postscript I

Summers said Friday: "We will not make the mistake of prematurely declaring victory or prematurely withdrawing public support for the flow of credit," adding that he wanted to avoid the mistakes Japan made in the 1990s and the United States in the late 1930s by pulling the plug on government support too soon.

This is an admission by an economic dunce-an MIT and Harvard grad who never ran a business-that Obama is following the failed Keynseian models of the New Deal and Japan's "Lost Decade" to fix our economy hoping against hope for a different result. This is the audacity of insanity. While Summers noted that joblessnes was at a 26 year high nothing was said about the success of Reaganomics (free market solutions) in ending that crisis. For anything short of government solutions, of massive federal borrowing, spending and printing money, is practically taboo for this anti-Reagan administration*.

*Obama, who refuses to give Reagan any credit for ending the Cold War, is hell bent on proving Reagan wrong that "government is the problem." In short, Obama is at war with Reaganism as he is with the profit motive and capitalism. He has dedicated his presidency to proving the proposition that "government is the answer," despite centuries of evidence to the contrary. Ironically, Barack Obama is proving himself to be the best thing that happened to Conservatism since Reagan.

Postscript II: Obama, Osama and 9/11 Economics

You will notice that Summers' bad news on the long term "jobless recovery" came out on September 11th eight years to the date when bin Ladin launched his deadly attack believing it would raze the US economy to the ground with our country following the Soviet Union into the abyss. It didn't happen. Instead, the economy rebounded due mostly to Bush's bold leadership and supply side tax policies-eventually overwhelmed by the Fanny/Freddie/Wall Street housing meltdown. However, instead of the terrorist Osama crippling our economy we now have the terrible anti-Capitalist Obama threatening economic Armageddon with his reckless policies-slowly succeeding where Osama had failed.

During the campaign when Obama's kingmaker Ted Kennedy made his famous Obama/Osama gaffe (made also by Romney, Chris Matthews, Dean Singelton and others, see) it wasn't so much a Kennedy moment of mental confusion as an oracular slip of the tongue unconsciously warning us that Obama as president would fulfill the worst nightmares of bin Ladin for America. For Obamanomics, Cap and Trade and ObamaCare will, as Warren Buffet warns, turn America into a "bannana republic*"-making "Obamunism**" equal in its economic impact to a hundred 9/11s or a dozen Katrinas.

*What I call the Kenyan Mau Mau Miracle.

**Obama's ideology is rooted in communist-socialist egalitarian thinking.

Like Osama bin Ladin, al Qaida, and all jihadists great and small, Obama is the enemy of Democratic Capitalism and American economic and military hegemony (see). He is Bill Ayers and Geraldine Dorn without the bombs; the answer to Rev. Wright's damning prayers; bin Ladin without hijacked planes and suicide killers. Obama is many 9/11s rolled into one destructive presidency. Those who inadvertently confused Obama's name with Osama were in a sense speaking truth as both are insanely driven by destructive ideologies opposed to American enterprise, greatness and power.

SEPTEMBER 11 AND THE NUMERIC SIGN OF ISLAMIC TERROR (READ IN FULL SCREEN)

 
 
 
 
If we place two straight lines side by side running vertically ( l l ) and extend them indefinitely in either direction they will run on in parallel for all time and eternity maintaining a constant separation without ever meeting, joining or intersecting.

Are not parallel lines appropriately symbolic of the war we are in? The war we are waging with al Qaida and Islamic extremism? For like parallel lines we are unable to meet with the enemy at any point, or narrow the space (the differences) between us as these are unbridgeable. For this enemy is totalitarian in religion, morality, law, politics and war and implacably opposed to our free way of life-which for him is a godless abomination desecrating the earth. Absolutist in faith, utopian in dreams, intolerant of unbelievers this enemy is hell bent on restoring a glorious past when his God and prophet ruled supreme over an empire stretching from the Himalayas to the Pyrenees. Unwilling to compromise or meet us half way the destruction of our civilization is the enemy’s aim and for this he would die a thousand deaths and murder us by the millions. In short, we are engaged in a war to the death for the fate of the earth where there will be a winner and a loser and no happy mean; where the enemy won’t quit until victory brings peace.

NOTE: The number 11 taken as parallel lines can be interpreted to mean the following: uncompromising opposition (for better or worse), irreconcilable, Manichenism (black and white world view), extremism, radical solutions, intolerance, ideological intransigence, alienation, antagonism, fanaticism, utopianism (detachment from reality), polarization and war.

The War on Terror is really that simple. Parallel lines in this context are emblematic of enemies locked in mortal combat fighting unto death until one is totally crushed and the other wins. This is the nature of the conflict we are in whether we accept it or not.

Numerically the War on Terror, a name composed of 11 letters, is symbolized by the number 11, two parallel lines, the number that strangely dominated the terrible events of 9/11 in lower Manhattan and Washington DC; an unmistakable sign and signature effect from On High alerting us to the nature and seriousness of this war and the need for a national commitment to victory and a leader who is a warrior for liberty*.

*President Bush and Vice President Cheney were such men. As Moinica Crowley said on her show: "To win this war we must be as ruthless as the enemy."

The following are examples of the number 11 connected directly and indirectly to 9/11 and the War on Terror. Most of these can be found in a thousand places on the blogosphere, though no one to my knowledge has grasped the significance of this number as it specifically relates to this war . What is original below is followed by an asterisk*:

The 9/11 attack occurred on the 11th day of September.

Afghanistan the host country, protector and sponsor of al Qaida, and the first country America attacked after 9/11, is composed of 11 letters.

Two skyscrapers, Twin Towers, forming the number 11 were the first two of three targets hit that day.

A jetliner bearing the number 11 (Flight AA 11) initiated the attack.

The attack took place in New York City, an 11 letter name.

New York City was discovered by Henry Hudson on September 11, 1609*.

New York is a city in New York State, the 11th to enter the Union.

The foundation stone for the Pentagon-the third building hit on 9/11-was laid on September 11, 1941

After September 11th there were 111 days left in the year-the number of the current US Congress controlled by soft-on-terror Democrats dangerously detached from the reality of the real war. Could this in some strange way be an ominous sign of a coming terror attack during the 111th Congress, a Congress bearing the 11th number in the 100 series (see)?*.
 
After 9/11 the next deadly attack by al Qaida was on the 11th day of March 2004 in Madrid where 200 died in a train blast.

NOTE: Those who counted 911 days instead of 912 separating the New York from the Madrid attacks forgot that 2004 was a leap year.

As Islamic Jihadism succeeded Soviet Communism as our deadliest and most dangerous foe Nikita Khrushchev who swore, like today’s Jihadists, to bury democratic capitalism died at age 77 (a multiple of 11) on September 11, 1971. As Khrushchev failed in his ambition to defeat the West his death on September 11th is perhaps an auspicious sign that our Jihadist enemies will meet the same fate, and in the end we shall prevail*.

On the 11th day of August 1988 at a meeting that lasted 9 days bin Ladin and his associates founded al Qaida (see).

From 8-11-1988 (al-Qaida’s founding) to 9-11-2001=4779 days. When multiplied by 4, the number of planes hijacked on 9/11, 4779 gives us the sign of 9/11, hence:

4779x4=19116, a number with 911 at its center. One of many indications that Providence was at work on 9/11 and that good will come from all the death and destruction that we suffered on that day*.
 
SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 WAS THE 11TH YEAR OF BIN LADIN'S JIHAD

Al Qaida’s jihad against America informally began in 1990 11 years before 9/11 when bin Ladin turned against our country and the Saudi royal family for allowing US troops on “sacred” Saudi soil*.

The 9/11 attack occurred exactly 11 years to the date following George H. W. Bush’s “New World Order” speech (9/11/1990). Amazingly it was H.W's decision to station US troops in Saudi Arabia as a deterrent to Saddam’s pan-Arab ambitions that triggered a train of terrorist events leading up to 9/11 under Bush II*.

The War on Terror began October 7, 2001 or 10-7-2001 with the invasion of Afghanistan; not only do the number of letters in this county’s name total 11 but the date of the attack is reducible to that number by addition, hence: 1+7+2+1=11 (see)*.

Moreover, Operation Iraqi Freedom (the Iraq War) began on the 11th week of the year and on a date that is reducible to the number 9 oddly giving us the numbers 9/11, hence: 3-19-2003 is reducible to 3+1+9+2+3=18, 1+8=9*.

As the jihadist government of fascist Iran is a revolutionary regime that seeks the unification of Islam under its flag and the overthrow of the international order it is important to note that their geo-political purpose is stated in Article 11 of their constitution (see note 1)*.

Indeed, the Iranian government’s radicalism and fanatical zeal to spread its theocratic faith across the Moslem world and unify Islam is reflected in the tulip that’s emblazoned on its flag (a symbol of martyrdom); and the words Allah Akbar (God is great) that are inscribed 11 times above and 11 times below this symbol (see) *.


OTHER SIGNS LINKED TO 9/11 AND THE WAR ON TERROR INVOLVING THE NUMBER 11:

The Twin Towers each had 110 stories.

September 11th was the 254th day of the year, 2+5+4=11.

Flight 11 had 11 crew members and 81 passengers for a total of 92, 9+2=11.

Flight 77 (crashed into the Pentagon) had 65 passengers. 77 is a multiple of 11* and 6+5=11.

Minus the 19 al-Qaida hijackers there were 2974 deaths on 9/11, 2+9+7+4=22 a multiple of 11 2x*.

2603 of the 9/11 deaths were in the Twin Towers, 2+6+3=11*.

A total of 411 emergency workers who responded to the attack died from rescue operations or fighting fires.

The 16 letter name World Trade Center has a numeric value of 77, a multiple of 11, hence, using the table below we get the following:

1 2 3  4 5  6 7 8 9
A B C D E  F G H I
J K  L M N O P Q R
S T U V W X Y Z
 
WORLD TRADE CENTER
56934   29145  355259.
27        21       29 =77, 11x7 

 
BIN LADIN, SADDAM AND THE AYATOLLAH KHOMENIE*

The names Osama bin Ladin, Saddam Hussein and the Ayatollah Khomenie’s complete name give us variations and multiples of the number 11, hence, using the above table:

OSAMA BIN LADEN
61141 295 31455
13      16   18 = 47, 4+7=11
 
OBL
623=11
 
SADDAM HUSSEIN
114414  8311595
15         32   =   47, 4+7=11
 
AYATOLLAH RUHOLLAH MUSAVI KHOMEINI
171263318  93863318   431149 28645959
32              41             22        48 = 143, or 11x13.

As the opening salvo-first act of holy war-against the US by militant Islam was fascist Iran’s seizure of our embassy and diplomats in Tehran (the Hostage Crisis) this occurred on the 4th day of the 11th month of the year 1979, or 11-4-1979. Oddly, the date 11-4 is encoded in Khomeine’s middle name Musavi (see above). These three numbers are also encoded in the names Osama and Saddam. 114 also gives us the number of the Iraq War Resolution (HR 114) which authorized Bush to use force in the removal of Saddam.

It is interesting to note that exactly 7982 days separate the start of the Iran Hostage Crisis from al Qaida’s fatal attack on 9/11. This is interesting because 7982 days equates to 1140 weeks, the 40th number in the 1100 series oddly giving us the date 11-4, hence:

11-4-1979 to 9-11-2001=7982 days or 1140 weeks.

NOTE: Barack Obama, who our Moslem enemies perceive as a weak leader and God send to advance their monstrous cause, was elected on 11-4, the 29th anniversary of the Iran Hostage Crisis (2+9=11). As Ronald Reagan was elected on this date while the Hostage Crisis was in progress he was gifted on Inauguration Day with its termination; while, on the other hand, the omens at Obama’s inaugural: the botching of the presidential oath and Ted Kennedy’s collapse, were terribly inauspicious.

On this 8th anniversary of the 9/11 attack we need to be mindful that eight years separated the first World Trade Center bombing from the second, that the enemy's lust for American blood is unquenchable and that another meticulously planned attack of 9/11 proportions may be imminent. All catastrophe's are possible in the Tragic Age of Barack Obama the man who has senselessly turned the deadly 9/11 event, a day of remembrance and mourning, into a day of national service for freedom destroying leftist causes.


POSTSCRIPT I
 
Those Americans who know the enemy and understand the gravity of the challenge that we face don’t need my numerological discoveries to tell them what they already know. But for those who are soft-on-terror and confused about this war and believe that numbers can reveal certain truths what I’ve written here could be of value in opening their eyes to the danger we are in from our vicious Moslem foes.

POSTSCRIPT II: THE FIRST BOMBING OF WTC

As 11 is the most powerful numeric symbol indicating the implacably evil and uncompromising nature of Islamic Jihad, and 9/11 was the most destructive act of war committed by Jihadists against the US, it is interesting to note that the last three digits in the number of days separating the first attack on the WTC from the second gives us the number 911 in reverse, hence:

February 26, 1993 to September 11, 2001=3119 days
 
POSTSCRIPT III: THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR
 
The words American Revolutionary War, the uncompromising struggle of the Founders against British tyranny and colonial rule, has a numeric value of 121, or the number 11 squared, hence:
 
AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY WAR
14599315  9546332965197   519
37            69                     15=121 or 11x11
 
I will not do the calculations but in the ancient Greek language the word for tyranny: TYRANNIS has a numeric value of 1111.
 
 
POSTSCRIPT IV: VIETNAM AND THE TWO GREAT WARS
 
As World War I ended on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918 it was followed by extremely harsh war reparations payments inflicted on Germany that set the stage for for rise of Hitler and World War II. 
 
Most military historians date the beginning of US military involvment in the Vietnam War (between North and South) from the 11th day of December 1961-the year of Bracak Obama's birth (born just 18 weeks before).
 
 
POSTSCRIPT V: OBAMA, THE NUMBER 11 AND COMMUNISM
 
Obama's presidency number 44 is a multiple of 11 and his day of birth (8-4-1961), and that of his wife (1-17-1964), yields a variant of the number 11, hence:

8+4+1+9+6+1=29
1+1+7+1+9+6+4=29, 2+9=11

As Obama morally, mentally and ideologically is rooted in the culture of Communism encoded in this word is Obama's presidency number, hence:

COMMUNISM
364435914

This is a fatal sign of Obama's politically, economically and socially destructive and divisive Utopianism and ideological intransigence.
 
Speaking of Utopianism the word has a numeric value of 47 (a variant of 11), Obama's age when he became president, hence:
 
UTOPIANISM
3267915914=47, 4+7=11
 
In watching this terribly incompetant man blunder his way through seven months of his presidency  some have facetiously asked the question: What drugs is Obama on, as he is the Michael Jackson of American politics and mentally dwells in Never Nerverland (see). The answer is simple: the drug is Communism the hallucinogen of intellectuals.
 
My thanks to M*A of Here, There and Back Again for the 9/11 Remember photo used above; and to Oliver Stone for the WTC in shadow.

 
NOTES
 
1. Article 11 of the Iranian Constitution [Unity of Islam Principle]

In accordance with the sacred verse of the Koran "This your community is a single community, and I am your Lord, so worship Me" [21:92], all Muslims form a single nation, and the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran have the duty of formulating its general policies with a view to cultivating the friendship and unity of all Muslim peoples, and it must constantly strive to bring about the political, economic, and cultural unity of the Islamic world.

Note that most of the world’s one billion Moslems are divided into two sects (Sunni and Shia) and 57 states and that their unification, as called for in Article 11, can only be achieved by force. In short, this Article is a veiled statement of Iran’s imperial designs to fill the vacuum left by the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and restore the Holy Moslem Caliphate.

ILLEGAL ALIENS, SOCIALIZED MEDICINE AND NATIONAL DESTINY


             
      Congressman Joe Wilson speaks truth to liars

What we saw last night in the House Chamber was a weak and desperate president struggling against reality and refusing to accept his Waterloo (see); a president giving his last impassioned plea to a skeptical public to trust him on health care that his plan is good for America; that it will be deficit neutral and won't completely bankrupt our struggling system. When Rep. Joe Wilson, speaking truth to power (or truth to liars), cried out to Obama " you lie" he spoke for the millions of us who see through the half clever charade of this lying radical Alinsky leftist; the seemlingly smart dissembling collectivist who pledged in July-and meant every word-that he will not sign a health care bill unless it has a robust public option-or some form of it. Obama's rhetorical trickery that his plan is the happy mean between extremes: the Left's single payer plan-socialized medicine-and the Right's free market solutions is nothing more than the mainstreaming and camouflaging of his radical leftwing agenda-proved when he came out in favor of a public insurance program that would compete with private insurers. Studies show that such a plan would force insurers out of business and dump over 100 million working Americans into the government system at enormous cost to taxpayers, to the quality of medical services and to the GDP-part of Obama's nefarious plan to diminish our affluence and end American Exceptionalism (see).

THE INHUMANITY OF SOCIALIZED MEDICINE

Anyway you cut it Obama's end game is a single payer government run totalitarian health care system. Medical Communism plain and simple inhumane in its rationing of life saving drugs, surgical procedures and necessary health care services. The paths to health care tyranny are many and Obama knows them all; he doesn't care how we get there just so long as we do.

As I said elsewhere Obama is the "hopelessly unchanging one" "struck deaf, dumb and blind by the egalitarian idea" and the collectivization of American life-our organization into a unified national community: The United Socialist States of America-an abomination of the American Dream. Obama's middle name "Hussein" is a clue to his ideological intransigence and tragic self-destructive fate (
see). It's Obama's way or no way; either you're with him or against him; it's SOCIALISM OR BUST; and BUSTED he will be as his vision for America is not our national destiny (see and see).

Postscript I: Not the First, but the Last

In his speech Obama uttered, what I believe to be, the prophetic words: "I am not the first president to take up the cause of health care reform, but I am determined to be the last." As his cause is the crushing of health care liberty and free market medicine no president after Obama will dare take up this un-American cause after the politically disastrous collapse of his devious plans. The Waterlooing of ObamaCare will send a message to future presidents and lawmakers: DON'T TRY THIS AGAIN! Let's make sure Obama gets his wish and becomes the last radical leftist president in US history.

Postscript II: Joe Wilson and Obama's Campaign Pledge on Illegals

Not only was Wilson's emotional outburst justified however uncivil, but, as reported by Rush Limbaugh today, Obama sponsored legislation in both the Illinois and US Senates to extend health care coverage to illegals-who he wants amnestied into citizens. Even if Obama doesn't intend to sign a health care bill that covers illegals they will get coverage anyway once he and the Dems grant them US citizenship. For it was this same Barack Obama who pledged to Hispanic groups during the campaign "that comprehensive immigration legislation, including a plan to make legal status possible for an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants, would be a priority in his first year in office (
see)." Obama and the Dems have many ways to skin this cat and all of them must be vigorously opposed and defeated.

THE END OF ALINSKY STEALTH SOCIALISM AND THE DEATH OF THE UTOPIAN DREAM

If Saul Alinsky were alive today he would have had multiple orgasms on Election Day with the historic victory of Barack Obama. For Obama is an Alinsky Stealth Socialist (A.S.S) attempting to undermine, pull down and socialize our “unjust” “polluting” “oppressive” “evil” capitalist system by sneaky, underhanded, deceptive means. Indeed, Election Day would have been the happiest moment of Alinsky’s radical life; a day he would have likened to the Russian Revolution, believing that Obama, his faithful black disciple, was the new Vladimir Lenin; and that his dream of a bloodless socialist revolution in America had finally arrived.


ALINSKY, OBAMA AND THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION
 
Saul David Alinsky was born January 30, 1909 to Russian Jewish immigrants in Chicago 18 years before the Russian Revolution, which began on November 7, 1917. Barack Obama who hails from Chicago was born August 4, 1961 approximately 44 years after the Russian Revolution. While Obama’s Alinsky Revolution is stalled in its infancy due to public opposition to his radical policies it is fascinating to note that the number of days separating the births of Alinsky and Obama are exactly 19,179*-the first four numbers of which give us the year 1917 the year of the Russian Revolution when Lenin and the Bolsheviks achieved absolute political power in what was to be the greatest failed socialist experiment in history. Indeed, just as the Russian Revolution replaced czarist rule and a democratic government with a totalitarian state so is such a tyranny in America the ultimate aim of Alinskyism and Obama’s statist administration. Many conservative commentators have warned about Obama’s hidden totalitarian agenda for America, a careful, cautious Alinsky revolution by degrees; and they are correct in their assumptions as is proved by Obama’s ideological intransigence on a health care bill with a government option regardless of its balloning effect on the deficit**.

*January 30, 1909 (Alinsky's birth) to August 4, 1961=19179 days.

**Frankly admitted by Barney Frank to be a deceptive means and stepping stone to totalitarian state run universal communist health care.

That Obama is a totalitarian control freak blinded by his lust for power and state hegemony is indicated by the following numerical signs taken from Obama‘s full name and the dread word totalitarianism. Using the standard English system of numerology, of numbers running from 1 to 9, see for yourself what this Alinskyite has planned in his devious Lenin-like mind:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
A B C D E F G H I
J K L M N O P Q R
S T U V W X Y Z

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA
219132 8311595 62141=64
 
TOTALITARIANISM
262139219915914=64
 
Obama’s full name and the word "totalitarianism" have the exact same numerical value of 64 indicating Obama’s long term incremental un-American plan to socialize this country's economy and healthcare system.


1991 AND THE COLLAPSE OF SOVIET RUSSIA

It is interesting to note, by design or chance I do not know, that the numbers 1991 are encoded in the word totalitarianism signifying the great transformational year when the Soviet Russia collapsed into bankruptcy and disappeared from history liberating millions.

Furthermore, the acronym of Obama’s so-called economic stimulus program*: The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act or ARRA also gives us the number 1991 linking it to the fall of Russia’s totalitarian state**, hence

ARRA
1 9 91

*ARRA is a huge deceptive political slush fund, disguised as a Keynesian stimulus package, to advance Obama’s long term plans to transmute the evil hell of capitalist America into a heaven of socialist justice (
see).

**
Obama and the Dems have learned nothing from the collapse of the Soviet State. It collapsed from its massive size and inefficiency. For Obama and the Dems the federal government can never be big or complex enough until it cracks and crashes from its great size and weight.

Let there be no doubt about Obama’s true intentions and designs; no doubt about what he has planned for America’s future; and no doubt what the consequences will be if Obama and the Democrats continue their radical assault on economic freedom: NATIONAL COLLAPSE AND BANKRUPTCY THE SOVIET UNION WAY.


POSTSCRIPT: BARACK OBAMA AND THE DEATH OF THE UTOPIAN DREAM

Seven months into Obama’s presidency and Alinsky wouldn’t be so glad as the revolution is being stymied and derailed (a victim of its own contradictions*). For this would be conquering Caesar who pledged to “remake, transform and unite” America (organizing us into a national community) has been stopped from crossing the socialist Rubicon (
see); stopped and stalled in midstream by growing public dissent and outrage over his programs, policies and dissembling leadership; stopped dead cold by a right of center nation opposed to rising deficits, taxes and state control of their economic and medical lives. A movement of pro-liberty Americans is spreading across the land a civil protest of right reason, restraint* and freedom against bankruptcy, leftist insanity and tyranny; a movement unheralded and unforeseen that has put the White House on the defensive, and that the Alinskyites in Congress are powerless to defeat by bloodless democratic means.

*A radical leftist president trying to impose statist control on a right of center nation that distrusts government and loves economic freedom. Alinsky’s moment for radical revolution is when the masses “feel so frustrated, defeated and lost, so futureless in the prevailing system” that they’d be dying for radical change. Alinsky's revolutionary moment isn’t here and wasn't here when Obama took office, which means that the Obama Revolution of "fundamental and foundational change" was fortunately premature and doomed to fail from the start (see Postscript II) .
 
**Restraining Federal spending.

At this point in the revolution Alinsky would be frightened for the socialist future; frightened that perhaps the time wasn’t ripe for a radical left wing presidency and Congress; frightened that the Obama presidency, with Pelosi and Reid in the House and Senate, was premature; or that perhaps Obama was the wrong man at the right time in history. For Obama is falling very short of expectations, very short of the revolutionary leader of Alinsky’s radical dreams: the great charismatic personality who exudes confidence, power and vision; who enthralls the masses with his rhetoric and bends them to his will. For Barack Obama is not such a man: he’s charismatic light with an incoherent vision and projects an image of weakness, confusion, uncertainty and drift. By now Alinsky’s image of Obama, the fantasy view of a national and world redeemer held by millions during the campaign, would be badly shaken as he loses every test of character and leadership and pathetically falls in public esteem.

Indeed, by now Alinsky would likely be disillusioned with Obama; he’d likely be moaning that the revolution is imperiled and Obama, the messiah of hope and change, could very well be its worst and most dangerous enemy-setting back by generations all the progress that’s been made in radicalizing the government, the universities, the media and culture. No, Alinsky’s jubilation on Election Day would likely be gone as doubt and gloom set in that he’s lived his life in vain; and that in the collapse of Barack Obama he’s witnessing the triumph of democratic capitalism, the ideals of this republic and the death of the Utopian Dream.

 
POSTSCRIPT II: THE TIMES THEY ARE A CHANGIN'

If Alinsky's revolutionary moment of utter economic, political and social chaos occurs when Alinskyite's are in power the blame will fall on them and the radical Alinsky eco-communist statist left will be finished. That is what is happening now with this pathologically leftwing, anti-Capitalist administration. Political change is being forced in a Conservative direction by Obama's blunders and the CUNNING OF PROVIDENCE.

THE VAN JONES RESIGNATION AND THE FATE OF OBAMA’S GREEN REVOLUTION (WITH NEW POSTSCRIPT)

 
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/06/glenn-beck-gets-first-sca_n_278281.html

Our first 60s born president lost his first “unconstitutional” Czar last night with the resignation of the 60s born Alinsky Stealth Socialist (A.S.S.) Anthony “Van” Jones. Van Jones, a towering figure in the environmental and social justice movement, was born in the pivotal, epoch making year 1968, the year of anti-war turmoil, assassinations, riots, leftist rage and social upheaval. The year when LBJ shocked the nation by withdrawing from the presidential race; and Richard Nixon won the White House in one of the great political comebacks in US history. But what does Jones’ resignation portend for Obama, his administration and his Green Revolution to control the nation's energy sector? Not very well, I’m afraid.

Jones was born September 20, 1968 exactly 46 days away from Nixon’s victory over Humphrey on Election Day*. Now it just so happens that the number 46 is a factor of the number 1104 which gives us the date 11-04, the date of Obama’s victory over McCain, hence:

September 20, 1968 to November 5th=46 days.

46x24=1104.

*November 5, 1968.

Moreover, Jones resigned from office 228 days into the Obama administration. 228 is a multiple of 114 which, in a slightly different way, gives us again the date 11-4, when Obama was elected, hence:

January 20, 2009 (Obama’s inaugural) to September 5th* =228 days.

114x2=228
 
*Jones issued his resignation Sunday September 5th just before mid-night.

The above, in my view, indicates that Van Jones’ resignation is inextricably and prophetically linked to the Obama presidency and its energy/global warming/environmental policies. This I believe is confirmed by the following numeric signs:

Van Jones was anointed Green Jobs Czar on March 10th and lasted in that job 179 days. Amazingly, 179 is a factor of the number 1969, a number that signifies the year Richard Nixon became 37th President-the same Richard Nixon who created the Environmental Protection Agency one year later. In fact, it was 1969 that Nixon signed into law the National Environmental Act which paved the way for the creation of the EPA and its job killing, economy destroying, anti-business policies, hence:

March 10th to September 5th=179 days.

179x11=1969

Furthermore, Van Jones resigned 32 days from Obama’s 48th birthday. I mention this because the numbers 32 and 48 (see) are factors in the number 1920 the year that Republicans captured the White House bringing into office Warren Harding our nation’s first supply-side Chief Executive whose stimulus tax cutting policies on the wealthiest Americans ended Woodrow Wilson’s Great Recession and unleashed the economic boom of the Roaring Twenties until Fed monetary policies caused it to bust*, hence:

August 4, 2009 (Obama’s 48th birthday) to September 5th=32 days.

32x60=1920

48x40=1920

*The unwarranted Fed contraction of the money supply which the Fed is now abnormally expanding.

In sum: the resignation of Van Jones, an environmental extremist and power mad Alinsky socialist, foreshadows coming setbacks and defeats for Obama’s radical, economy depressing, environmental/energy policies. The months and years ahead will not be a happy time for climate change radicals and the hard statist environmental Left*.

*Jones’s resignation also delt a huge blow to the Truthers who for the most part have vanished since George Bush left office. Wonder why?
 
Postscript I: Earth Day*
 
In light of what I wrote above about Richard Nixon and the EPA keep in mind that Nixon died on April 22, 1994 the 24th anniversary of Earth Day-originally conceived in 1969 and first celebrated in 1970 early in Nixon's first term. The Van Jones resignation is an unmistakable sign that Obama's Green Revolution can and will be derailed and decades of bad EPA policy reversed**. The blundering, bungling inept Obama will do much to discredit the cause of radical environmentalism. After four disastrous years of Obama Al Gore will curse the day he ever became president***. Obama will be our sweet revenge on the global warming lunatics and their power grabbing plans.
 
*The first Earth Day celebrated in 1970 was made to coincide with the centennial birth of Vladimir Lenin (b. April 22, 1870). With good reason critics have called the new age radical environmental movement "Eco-Communism," because that is precisely what it is; the resignation of the Communist Van Jones prefigures its coming marginalization and irrrelevancy.
 
**Runaway environmental regulations and enormous hidden taxes on American products and services have taken a tremendous toll on our economy including the wrecking of the auto industry.
 
*** Four or five years down the road I can see a defeated Al Gore authoring a book called: The Inconvenient Presidency: Where It All Went Wrong.

Postscript II: April 22, 2009
 
On April 22nd of this year President Obama following a tour that he made of a Maytag plant at Des Moines, Iowa delivered a speech discussing components of his comprehensive energy plan, which included promoting clean energy innovation to help end our dependence on foreign oil, creating millions of new green jobs, and preventing the worst consequences of climate change. This speech falling as it did on the 139th anniversary of Lenin's birth was another dire warning of Obama's eco-Communism and intention to socialize and control America's vast energy industry. Again, the Van Jones resignation is an auspicious sign of coming defeat for Obama's statist plans (see).

BARACK OBAMA: THE GREAT FALLING ICARUS (SLIGHTLY REVISED)



Icarus falling to his death after
his wings were melted by the Sun.

Click here and read my prediction about the quick unraveling of the Obama presidency made fifty days after the election, and later, in part, republished here as "Character is Destiny."

How can a newly elected president of such staggering stupidity and blindness* be anything but a failure quickly falling from the sky like the rash and reckless Icarus who ignored his father's warning and flew too close to the sun (click here)? Obama's tragic error is that he incurred the Sun god's wrath by attempting to replace him as the brightest star in heaven. 

*Obama is the national David Paterson, the legally blind black governor of New York. Paterson's physical blindness is emblematic of Obama's mental and moral blindness. Obama's administration and popularity are going the way of Paterson's disastrous unpopular governorship. See my Obama Maharaji, the section on Neville Chamberlain Incarnate for Obama the Blind following the blind governor in time.

SAVING OBAMA AND THE WISDOM OF BABES


As Obama desperately searches around for ideas to rescue his failing
presidency why shouldn't he turn to the nation's school children when all the grown ups in his administration have failed? How can we fault Obama for doing this when the Bible teaches that wisdom can come from the mouth of babes? You never know there just might be a few supply-side kiddies out there or couple of anti-terrorist brats to enlighten Obama and get him on track.

WHY OBAMA WON'T LEAVE AFGHANISTAN




If there is one political pledge that Obama is intent on keeping it is the capturing or killing of Osama bin Ladin and defeat of the Taliban. However, this commitment is not driven so much by Obama's national security concerns to keep America safe from terror as it is to succeed where George Bush and D*ck Cheney failed, i.e., to best his predecessor in the War on Terror (see). In other words, Bush Derangement Syndrome and fear of losing the War on Terror is what's keeping our troops in Afghanistan (see TWO VIETNAMS FOR ONE).
