Privacy, Anarchists and Denial of Deception

Privacy, Anarchists and Denial of Deception
by Colin D. Donoghue
9/7/08

When I used to mail a package at the post office they would ask “Is there anything hazardous, liquid or perishable inside?” A ridiculous, but albeit legitimate question. Have you noticed now they just ask “What's in the box?” Now we are expected to reveal publicly our private correspondence, all of course because “everything has changed since 9/11”. Is this conditioning of the public to accept infringement on our rights, to ease us into a police state, or am I overreacting? Whats the big deal? Just tell them anything, like it's a box filled with socks and jellybeans! The point isn't that we have to actually say what's in the box, that's why even the original question is absurd; is a terrorist really going to admit there's something hazardous in the box? The point is that rather than object to a clear invasion of privacy, we ignore it. And that establishes a mindset in society that the government can look through your things without just cause, which you may remember, violates the Fourth Amendment, you know, the one that was specifically written to protect us against an encroaching police state.

The news (mostly non-corporate of course) lately has been filled with story after story of non-violent activists being beaten, arrested and having their homes broken into and property seized, especially wherever the Democratic/Republic Conventions are taking place. (You've all seen the 2006 documentary “Chicago 10” right? If not, go rent/buy it.) And what's the supposed justification? “Conspiracy to start a riot” of course. Thought crimes. But maybe they really were going to cause a riot, you might be thinking? This has clearly not been the case in the stories I've read about, these activist wanted to have a march, a sit-in, distribute pamphlets. And if a riot does actually happen, guess who's most likely to have started it? Some undercover government official! Have you ever heard of an “agent provocateur”? It's an undercover agent who disguises himself as an activist, usually an “anarchist”, and throws something at the cops, or at someones property, to “justify” the police breaking up the protest/march/demonstration, and also breaking peoples skulls/arms, etc.

I'm not saying every activist has realized the necessity of non-violence in defeating an empire based on violence; Some actually think violence has its place, especially in a country where the elections are corporately funded/run and have been rigged (and they have been, without a doubt.) What they need to realize is that they are doing the work of the government for free, they are basically volunteering for Homeland Security/FBI/CIA, etc. I imagine there must have been times at demonstrations, etc. where you'd have a genuine anarchist side-by-side with an agent provocateur, doing the same exact thing. If the government is employing people to throw bottles at cops, have you ever considered that it's in their own interest to do so? Every time there is an act of violence at a protest or demonstration, the government, and its 4th branch, the corporate media, will use it to further demonize all activists, discourage other citizens from showing up at future events, and to “justify” further “free speech zone” restrictions, police brutality and illegal searches and seizures in the hones and workplaces of activist-citizens. That should be one word, by the way. If you want anything resembling a democracy and free country, you have to incorporate some activism in your life, that's what being a citizen is all about. But that's not the message coming from the media. Anyone who takes to the streets, or even posts a blog against some policy/action, is now an “extremist”. Don't buy that bullshit, speak/act out.

And when you do so, consider not avoiding an issue, like 9/11 Truth, just because Noam Chomsky does. It's so ironic... supposed radicals, who are all about non-hierarchical power structures and complete personal freedom and independence, becoming the unquestioning follower of a professor at MIT. Chomsky has written some great books about US foreign Policy and the media, of course. But the one issue that is actually the fuel of the current imperialism and tyranny, he wont touch, saying “there's nothing there”. Nothing there?!?! WTF?! You actually believe the official story on 9/11? That bullshit fairy tale? Have you read/seen the following?:
Books:
1. “Crossing the Rubicon” by Michael Ruppert
2. “The Terror Timeline” by Paul Thompson
3. “The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions" & “Debunking 9/11 Debunking”, both by David Ray Griffin
4. “The War On Truth: 9/11, Disinformation And The Anatomy Of Terrorism” by Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed
Documentaries:
“9/11 Press For Truth” (911pressfortruth.com/ ) & “9/11 Mysteries” (www.911Mysteries.com/)

I'm continually surprised at the conformity amongst radicals and alternative media; those who consider themselves “nonconformist” but have been excluding really revolutionary behavior and issues like non-violent civil disobedience and 9/11 Truth, while otherwise offering good critical views of status-quo policy/culture that are valuable. This can serve as a misdirecting force for those wanting to bring positive change, “left gatekeepers” (like Chomsky, as explained in the book “Towers of Deception” by Barrie Zwicker) sound revolutionary but avoid actions that are actually revolutionary. Effectiveness needs to be emphasized along with just an outward appearance that is non-conformist to the mainstream. And there is no other information more effective at bringing down this illegitimate fascist police-state empire than that that disproves the story their entire operation is based on. It is also crucial to prevent another act of state-sponsored terrorism (Avian Flu?) or another imperialist invasion (Iran?) based on lies about the “war on terror”. Not to mention the plans for a North American Union (see: stopthenorthamericanunion.com), replacing what little remnants of a Constitutional Republic we have left with an “elite” governing body (read: The Council on Foreign Relations) unaccountable to congress or the American People.

A little while ago I was playing basketball with some friends at an outside court and there were two stickers on the backboard, an American Flag with the words “One Nation In Denial”, and on the other side of the basket a Decepticon logo from the Transformers cartoon. How appropriate! Denial of Deception (9/11) is THE crucial issue right now!!

So rather than move to Canada or plan some violent action that would just play into the hands of these fascist war criminal tyrants, please do something that will actually make a difference, namely expose the 9/11 Lie and commit acts of non-violent civil disobedience/protest demonstration whenever you feel the urge. And if they ask you “what's in the box?” at the post office, ask them if they've heard of the 4th Amendment, and give them a TIP in the form of a deceptiondollar(.com), because most likely they think they're protecting us from terrorists, when in fact they're working for them.

Soldiers at Shannon

On my recent trip to Ireland I flew in and out of Shannon airport, which has been used by the U.S. military for it's operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, torture-trip "renditions", and who knows what else. While waiting for my flight to New York, I was surrounded by dozens of US soldiers, browsing around in the gift shop, and the the departure gates. If you actually talk to a soldier, even if you're completely against the "war", you will usually find a decent guy or gal who you wouldn't have any problem with in everyday life. Yet unfortunately they believe enough of the propaganda they are told to serve the interest of profit & power. It's hard not to have a distaste for their presence, knowing what this illegitimate administration is using them for. And I'm hardly alone in this feeling in Ireland. There have been numerous protests against the US military use of Shannon airport, if you haven't heard about it, that's for the same reason you possibly haven't heard any of the overwhelming evidence that contradicts the official 9/11/01 story: Bush(corporate government, i.e. fascism)-supporting owners of our corporate media that limit, and in cases like 9/11, eliminate, opposing viewpoints and facts.

The US military in Ireland gives the feeling of injustice, of the divine Will for peace and justice being mocked by the devil, so to speak, as China's occupation of Tibet does, with their oppressive and abusive police and surveillance cameras installed throughout the towns...their influx of people and goods, destroying the Tibetan culture with intent...
It's like the continued occupation of Northern Ireland by the UK, causing violence, hatred, suspicions and division continually....Things like this are a stain on humanity, and they need to be thoroughly washed out. There is no compromise, US and UK out of Ireland (and Iraq/Afghanistan too, of course), China out of Tibet. Some things are 100% wrong and just need to end. And what's the common denominator for my evaluation of whats "wrong"? Fascism, which is systematic violence; violence being the root factor of discernment.

Last night I was watching a PBS show on the FCC, and its Republican tool-of-the-devil director who is completely ignoring the overwhelming dissent, by the Public and Congress, at the new proposed media conglomeration regulation, that will allow even further concentration of power (fascism) in the media, controlling the information we hear, assuring that the really crucial info, say on 9/11, The Federal Reserve, etc. will never enter the mainstream. That's why I give him the harsh"tool-of the-devil" status, I think of the devil as defined as "The Great Deceiver", whose deception leads to enormous harm; recent examples that I refer to often are the great deceptions of 9/11, the elections, WMD's, etc. Lack of crucial truth, and the presence of propaganda in the media is a fundamental obstacle to the progress of humanity and the end of the destructive status-quo paradigm. Media conglomeration is part and parcel to this, it always decreases crucial truth and increases propaganda and disinfotainment.
The FCC director is blatantly ignoring the will of the majority of Americans and Congress, which makes him a fascist, plain and simple. I know we cant have a pure democracy for every decision that needs to be made bt government, but this decision is following countless Public (and Congressional) hearings that all overwhelmingly said the same thing: "NO!"

The majority of Americans were against the Iraq "war" before it began, and the majority of Americans voted for Al Gore and John Kerry, but democracy was trampled and fascism won, with years of death, oppression and destruction following.

It's the same old story, since the beginning of civilization: the few oppressing the many and keeping humanity in a degraded state of tyranny, poverty, oppression and destruction...

Why wont "liberals" call it fascism when that's what it is? Until they do, its not likely to stop, especially when it is supported by the ever-present foundational Big Lie of 9/11.

are you thinking inside a propaganda bubble?

So now it seems like almost every American with common sense opposes Bush/Cheney, yet even the "scholars" still think within a framework of lies, so their ideas remain off-target. They say things like "What a mess Bush made in Iraq..." "What a poor decision to make..." And then the more everyday American will just say something like "Bush is an idiot..."
What's wrong with that you're wondering? What's wrong is that they all assume "the mess" in Iraq isn't EXACTLY what was was INTENDED to happen! It really is about the oil and establishing military bases, and UNREST is necessary (meaning our soldiers dying along with civilians) to further their own agenda for further wealth and power (for the corporations and bankers these fascists represent)...
Americans are so ridiculously gullible, especially concerning 9/11, the eternal "justification" for everything the criminal Bush Administration do...
If you keep relying on mainstream media, or even liberal media, for your awareness of what's really going on, you'll remain in a propaganda bubble where your thoughts and commentary have little to no real effect or meaning...
I could go on but will leave you with sources of crucial truth instead so you can pop your bubble, learn the crucial truth that needs to enter the mainstream, and thereby really make a positive difference in the world:

1. ALL OF DAVID RAY GRIFFIN’S BOOKS ON 9/11
& THE BOOK “TOWERS OF DECEPTION” BY BARRIE ZWICKER. (amazon.com, etc.)

2. THE DOCUMENTARIES
“9/11 PRESS FOR TRUTH” (http://911pressfortruth.com/),
“9/11 MYSTERIES” (http://www.911Mysteries.com/),
"ZEITGEIST" (PART 2, http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com).
"TERRORSTORM" (http://www.infowars.com/terrorstorm/google_high_quality.htm)
