In ah ha theyah ha
name ah ha Jaysooose keeeel all em dirty Arabs they cry!
There is no
doubt that many of the soldiers responsible for the recent death
and destruction
in Fallujah are Christians. And there is no doubt that many Americans who call
for more death and destruction in Iraq
and elsewhere are Christians as well.
Christian
Killers.
wrong...Judaeo-Churchinsanity
killers for their "Chosen" who Chose the "Robber" and
crucified the Chooser
The
phrase should be a contradiction in terms. If someone referred to Christian
adulterers, Christian drug addicts, Christian prostitutes, Christian pimps,
Christian gangsta rappers, or Christian acid rockers, most Christians would
get an extremely perplexed look on their face. But when Christians
in the military continue killing for the state, and Christians not in
the military call for more killing in the name of the
state, many Christians don’t even raise an eyebrow.
In some
respects, this is the fault of religious "leaders." Christians in
the pew are in many cases just blindly following their pastors, priests,
elders, and ministers who, instead of preaching the gospel, are preaching
the same pro-war politics their congregation hears on the Sean
Hannity radio show or else they are not denouncing the debacle in Iraq
for what it is: unscriptural, immoral, and unconstitutional. Conservative
religious leaders are in some cases nothing more than cheerleaders for
George Bush and the Republican Party.
Judaeo-Churchywolve's
But even
if a Christian hears nothing but pro-war propaganda from the pulpit, it is
still no excuse, for Christians have access to the truth if they will just
put forth the effort to look for it. They have a Bible they can read for
themselves. They have the example of some principled Christian leaders who
have opposed the debacle in Iraq from the beginning. They have an abundance
of alternative news sources to receive information from besides the pro-war
propaganda they get from the Fox War Channel and the War Street Journal.
It is unfortunate that some Christians won’t read anything unless it was
written by some other Christian they know and usually agree with. God forbid
that they should read something by someone outside of their denomination,
circle, or "camp" – or even worse, someone they consider to be a
nominal Christian or not a Christian at all.
To
justify their consent or silence, and to keep their congregations in line,
Christian leaders repeat to their parishioners the mantra of "obey
the powers that be," a loose paraphrase of Romans 13:1, as if
that somehow means that they should blindly follow whatever the president or
the government says, and even worse, that it overturns the commandment
"Thou shalt not kill" (Exodus 20:13; Deuteronomy 5:17), which is
repeated in the New Testament (Matthew 19:18; Romans 13:9). The way some
Christians repeat the "obey the powers that be" mantra, one would
think that they would slit their own mothers’ throats if the state told
them to do so.
you
had better betcha they will, and they soon will deliver the True saints of
Jesus to their freemason councils and the shema-God thinking to do their God a
service.....
Under
what circumstances, then, is a Christian justified in or excused from
killing another human being? Is it ever all right for a Christian to be a
"killer"? As I see it, there are four circumstances under which a
Christian could justifiably kill or be excused from killing: capital
punishment, self-defense, accidents, and "just" wars.
True
Christ believer slay no man for any reason, for we are of Life eternal. Only
they of the murderer since the beginning murders man since the beginning.
There is no such thing as a Just war.
A
Christian who lawfully carried out capital punishment would not be
committing murder. Although the subject of capital punishment is sometimes
hotly debated, the Bible sanctions it before the law (Genesis 9:6), under
the law (Numbers 35:16–21, 30–31), and under the New Testament (Acts
25:11; Romans 13:4). For more on the death penalty see Walter
Block.
No one,
Christian or otherwise, would fault a man for killing another man in
self-defense. Only the most diehard pacifist would refuse to act in
self-defense if he was attacked. This would have to include the protection
of one’s family as well, for if the Bible condemns a Christian for not
providing for his own house (1 Timothy 5:8), how could a Christian not
ensure by whatever means necessary the protection of his family’s life?
What
an oxy-Moron, if a man was convicted and was captured and was attacked then he
has no right to Protect himself? And all the courts are now talmudic Shem
courts of freemason No-Hides
Accidents
happen. And sometimes someone is tragically killed. This does not make the
perpetrator a murderer. The Jews were commanded in the Old Testament to
establish cities of refuge (Numbers 35:6, 11-15) to which someone might flee
that killed his neighbor unawares or ignorantly (Numbers 35:11; Deuteronomy
19:4-5).
Most
Christians would wholeheartedly agree with these first three propositions.
The problem is with war; specifically, the fact that all wars are not
created equal. The vast majority of wars in the world’s history have been
destructive, unjust, and immoral. What constitutes a just war is a question
I have answered in the essay "Christianity
and War." Obviously, an aggressive, preemptive war against a
country with no navy or air force, an economy in ruins after a decade of
sanctions, and that was no threat to the United States is not a just war.
A
Christian fighting for the U.S. Government in Iraq doesn’t fall under any
of these circumstances.
After
Bush launched his nebulous "war on terrorism" by having
Afghanistan bombed back to the Stone Age to supposedly rid the world of
Osama bin Laden, al-Qaeda, and the Taliban, he announced to the world his
"axis
of evil" and went to war against Iraq to, depending on what day it
was, rid the world of the evil Saddam Hussein or because Iraq violated U.N.
resolutions or to destroy Iraq’s supposed stockpiles of weapons of mass
destruction or because of the perceived connection between al-Qaeda and Iraq
or to liberate the Iraqi people or to bring democracy to Iraq.
Christians
who support or remain silent about Bush’s "war against
terrorism" are terribly inconsistent. If the state were to say:
"Here Christian, put on this uniform, take this gun, go to your
hometown, and kill your father," Christians would recoil in horror and
refuse to obey the state. But if the state were to say: "Here
Christian, put on this uniform, take this gun, go to Iraq, and kill someone
else’s father," I am afraid that many Christians would reply,
"When does my plane leave?"
Why is
it that the same Christian who would not do the former, has no qualms about
doing the latter?
Because
they are not Christians, and are become obedient Goyim Noahides for their
Judaeo-shemgods and their proselyete pastors
Christians
who voted for George W. Bush (even if it is true that he was in fact the
lesser of two evils – a dubious proposition), or make excuses for his
invasion of Iraq, are supporting a man with blood on his hands (Iraqi
blood and American blood).
The fact that the president himself never killed anyone is irrelevant –
Adolf Hitler never gassed a single Jew.
What,
then, is a Christian to do? What should any citizen do? Even though it is no
longer posted in the public schools, most people know the answer: "Thou
shalt not kill" (Exodus 20:13). Stop killing or supporting or making
excuses for those who do. Quit ignoring the fact that the United States has
a global empire of troops
and bases that
inevitably leads to more killing. Realize that it is the interventionist
foreign policy of the United States that is the main reason why the world
hates us. Acknowledge that the reason more countries don’t hate us is
because we bribe them with foreign
aid (after the money is first confiscated from U.S. taxpayers).
It is
true that the Bible commands the Christian: "Submit yourselves to every
ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake" (1 Peter 2:13). And it is true
that it also says: "Let every soul be subject unto the higher
powers" (Romans 13:1). But it doesn’t take a seminary education to
see that this doesn’t trump the commandment: "Thou shalt not
kill." To know when to submit and when to be in subjection, we have
some relevant biblical examples to go by – two in the Old Testament book
of Daniel and two in the New Testament book of Acts.
In
Daniel chapter 3, we read that King Nebuchadnezzar "made an image of
gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six
cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon"
(Daniel 3:1). It was then decreed that when the music started, everyone was
to "fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king
hath set up" (Daniel 3:5). The penalty for noncompliance was to be
"cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace" (Daniel 3:6). It
was then charged that Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego would not worship the
golden image (Daniel 3:12). When brought before the king and threatened with
being cast into the furnace, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered the
king: "If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from
the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods,
nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up" (Daniel 3:17-18).
Although Nebuchadnezzar did cast them into the furnace, and God did deliver
them, the point is that these three Hebrews did not submit and were not
subject to King Nebuchadnezzar.
In
Daniel chapter 6, we read that King Darius made a decree that
"whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man for thirty
days," except from the king, "shall be cast into the den of
lions" (Daniel 6:7). But "when Daniel knew that the writing was
signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber
toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed,
and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime" (Daniel 6:10). For
his disobedience, Daniel was cast into the den of lions, but God delivered
him. The point, however, is that Daniel did not submit and was not subject
to King Darius.
In Acts
chapter 4, the Apostles Peter and John were imprisoned by the leaders of the
Jews and then brought before them and commanded "not to speak at all
nor teach in the name of Jesus" (Acts 4:18). But instead of submitting
and being in subjection, they replied: "Whether it be right in the
sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye. For we cannot
but speak the things which we have seen and heard" (Acts 4:19-20). They
even prayed for boldness to continue speaking (Acts 4:29).
In Acts
chapter 5, some apostles were put in prison by order of the high priest
(Acts 5:17-18). They were freed by an angel and ordered to "stand and
speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life" (Acts
5:20). These apostles were then brought before the leaders of the Jews and
asked: "Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in
this name? And, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and
intend to bring this man’s blood upon us" (Acts 5:28). But rather
than apologizing and submitting and being subject to them, the apostles
replied: "We ought to obey God rather than men" (Acts 5:29).
To say,
as some Christians do, that because "The LORD is a man of war"
(Exodus 15:3), and God allows wars between nations, that it is honorable for
Christians to enthusiastically participate in U.S. wars of aggression is
about the most profound demonstration of biblical ignorance that one could
manifest.
Perhaps
I should close by saying that I have never advocated, nor am I now
advocating, nor do I intend to advocate in the future, any armed resistance
to the government or any aggression against the government in any way. The
pen is mightier than the sword. "The weapons of our warfare are not
carnal" (2 Corinthians 10:4). However, as Thomas Jefferson said in the Declaration
of Independence:
We hold these
truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are
endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these
are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these
rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers
from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government
becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter
or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation
on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them
shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence,
indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be
changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience
hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are
sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they
are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing
invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute
despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such
government, and to provide new guards for their future security.
And, as
even Abraham Lincoln said (long before his invasion of the Southern states):
Any people
anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up
and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them
better. This is a most valuable, a most sacred right – a right which we
hope and believe is to liberate the world.
What is
a Christian (or anyone) going to do when he faces God at the Judgment and
has to give an account of his actions? Suppose he is asked a simple
question: "Why did you kill those people defending their homes in
Iraq?" And suppose he replied: "Because the U.S. government told
me to." What do you suppose would be the Lord’s reaction to such a
reply? But what else could a man say? He could not say that the United
States was under attack. He could not say that Iraq was a threat to the
United States. He could not say that he was protecting his family. He could
not say that he was protecting his property. He could not even legitimately
say that he was protecting himself, since he was in fact a trespasser on
someone else’s property intending to do the owner great bodily harm.
"Cursed
be he that taketh reward to slay an innocent person. And all the people
shall say, Amen" (Deuteronomy 27:25).

WASHINGTON – Judges would be negligent if they disregarded the growing
role of international law in U.S. courts, asserted Supreme Court Justice
Sandra Day O'Connor in a speech today at Georgetown Law School.
Treason
to the Constitution for the United States
It was the second time O'Connor has made a point of affirming the place
of international law in U.S. courts
O'Connor said the Supreme Court is taking more cases that demand a better
understanding of foreign legal systems and procedures. She cited, as a
recent example, terror cases involving the U.S. detention of foreign-born
detainees at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

"International law is no longer a specialty," said the
appointee of President Reagan.

"It is vital if judges are to faithfully discharge their
duties. Since Sept. 11, 2001, we're reminded some nations don't have the

Later this term, the Supreme Court is scheduled to decide the
constitutionality of executing juvenile killers – a case that has
attracted wide interest overseas, with many foreign nations filing briefs
pointing to international human rights norms as a justification for banning
the practice. O'Connor did not specifically mention the case.

She said recognizing international law could foster more civilized
societies in the United States and abroad.

"International law is a help in our search for a more peaceful

At least five members of the current U.S. Supreme Court align themselves

In 2003, Ruth Bader Ginsburg
(jew) told
the American Constitution Society her colleagues are looking beyond America's
borders for guidance in handling cases on issues like the death penalty and
homosexual rights.
Looking
to the Sanhedrin
In a decision earlier that year in a Texas case in which anti-sodomy laws
were overruled, the justices first referred to the
findings of foreign courts. The year before, the court said executing
mentally retarded people is unconstitutionally cruel, noting the practice was
opposed internationally. Ginsburg cited an international
treaty in her vote in 2003 to uphold the use of race in college
admissions.
She said, "Our island or lone-ranger mentality is beginning to
change." Justices, she added, "are becoming more open to comparative
and international law perspectives."

Ginsburg,
O'Connor and Stephen Breyer
discussed the death penalty and terrorism with French President Jacques Chirac
during a European tour that included a conference on the European constitution
that same year. France outlawed the death penalty in 1981. Five members of the
court attended the conference.

constitutional law should encompass the world," she told the group of
judges, lawyers and students. "We are the losers if we do not both share

Ginsburg also tipped that the Internet is making it easier for the justices
to keep up with the decisions of foreign courts.
TREASON
Earlier, a New York Times story explained that extensive foreign travel has
made both Anthony Kennedy and O'Connor "more alert" to how their
peers on other constitutional courts see similar issues.

"Justices have always traveled, teaching or taking part in
seminars," the story said. "But these are trips with a

The story said Ginsburg, Breyer, O'Connor and Kennedy have held extensive
sessions with judges in Europe. Kennedy, it said, has met with numerous
Chinese judges – both in the United States and in China. O'Connor has been
involved in the American Bar Association's reform initiative in Eastern
Europe.

"With emerging democracies groping toward the rule of law, with
colleagues on the federal bench volunteering for constitution-writing duties
in Iraq, it is not surprising that the justices have begun to see themselves
as participants in a worldwide constitutional convention," the New York
Times story said ominously.

Not all of the justices agree, however. In his dissent in the Texas sodomy
case, Justice Antonin Scalia wrote that the court should not "impose
foreign moods, fads or fashions on Americans."

Acts 15:1 depicts the
early Christian church at an impasse. It was in Antioch that "certain
from Jerusalem taught
Gentile converts, 'Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of
Moses, you cannot be saved'" (Acts 15:1). What did Christians believe to
be the way of salvation? The road to this point had been long; it had probably
taken some 18 years. Acts 2-14 sketches the milestones as Christianity moved
into a variety of social, cultural, and racial communities.(1) These contacts
forced the young church to face a number of questions culminating in those
involving the nature of salvation and related ethical matters. The account
demonstrates how "New Testament history is indeed charged with
theological implications;"(2) how it was through the events, conflicts,
and struggles in its time and culture that the Church of Acts, through the
guidance of the Spirit, clarified and shaped theology for its day.
According to Acts, the
idyllic harmony of the first days in Jerusalem
were broken by conflict between Jews who held to Semitic or Hebraic culture,
on the one side, and Hellenistic or Greek on the other. Stephen's speech laid
the theological foundations for Christian missions by asserting that God is
the universal deity and Jesus the more-than-Jewish-Messianic-Son of Man whom
all peoples, nations, and languages should acknowledge.(3)
Through Philip
Samaritans and an Ethiopian, groups racially and culturally different but who
traditionally had some associations with Israel, embraced the message of
Jesus. Saul, a fierce Jewish persecutor of "The Way," was converted
through a dramatic confrontation with the risen Christ on the Damascus road.
Peter's mission along the Coastal Plain of the Land of Israel was among Jews
in frequent contact with Gentiles and therefore under suspicion by the strict
practioners of the Jewish life-style in Jerusalem
and the secluded Hill Country. It was validated by the healing of Aeneas and
the raising of Dorcus from the dead.
Peter visited and
preached to the household of Cornelius(4) only after a thrice-repeated vision
and a voice from heaven had prepared the way. In making this journey Peter
violated tabus related to both race and culture. Cornelius, after all, was a
Gentile, an officer in the Roman army of occupation, and uncircumcised. The
divine preparation forced Peter to realize that "God shows no
partiality" (10:34); and accompanying supernatural signs left the Jerusalem
Church no choice but to concur (11:18). Some Jews may have considered
Cornelius as a special case, based on his status as a "God fearer"
(10:2, 22), one of the good, pious Gentiles allowed limited contact with
Judaism by some Jews.(5) Subsequent events saw the proclamation of the gospel
to Greeks in Antioch and the conversion of many Gentiles in south central Asia
Minor as a result of Paul's first missionary journey.
At some points the Jerusalem
Church sent investigators to look into the new developments. The passing of
most of the milestones was accompanied by miraculous signs indicating divine
approval. Yet, questions were asked: With whom should Jewish Christians
associate? What is it permissible to eat? With whom should one eat? What about
circumcision? Is it necessary? If so, necessary for what? All of these issues
were deeply rooted in Jewish culture, both as parts of the Old Testament Torah
and as implements of protectionism against assimilation of the race and
culture by the peoples with whom the Hebrews were thrown during the
Intertestamental period.
Now, in Antioch, it
became clear that the hesitancy and questions raised as new groups were
introduced into the Church were but symptoms of a far more significant matter,
what is the nature of Christian salvation? Must Gentiles indeed be circumcised
and charged to keep the Mosaic customs to be saved? The nature of the new
faith was at stake.
The Acts 15 account is
the subject of numerous questions and problems.(6) Many, if not the majority,
of recent writers on Acts conclude that chapter 15 is either a heavily edited
or invented story.(7) I believe there is good reason for holding it to be an
abbreviated but accurate portrayal of what occurred. In any case, it stands as
a central point in Acts and for that reason alone deserves serious
consideration in an attempt to ascertain the author's point of view.(8)
Acts recounts that after
there had been "no small dissension and debate" in Antioch (Acts
15:1 f.), Paul, Barnabas and others were appointed (etaxan) to discuss the
matter with "the apostles and elders" in Jerusalem.
Thus the stage was set for the Council
of Jerusalem.
On the way to Jerusalem
the Antiochene delegation reported the conversion of the Gentiles to
Christians in Phoenicia and Samaria (15:3). Again, in Jerusalem
they "declared all that God had done with them" (15:4). In both
cases Paul and his group probably took care to make clear that the Gentile
Christians were not circumcised nor placed under Torah. In Jerusalem
"some from the party of the Pharisees who had believed" made demands
similar to those of the Judaizers in Antioch (15:5).
In both locales the
Judaizers' requirements imply that Christianity was merely a party within
Judaism (granted they held it to be the right party, the righteous remnant(9))
and that the coming of the Messiah had not brought an end to Torah nor
significantly altered it.(10) Consequently, membership in the Jesus-Messianic
community was open only to natural born Jews or proselytes. Thus, Luke makes
it clear that both in Antioch and Jerusalem
the issue before the Church involved the nature of the faith and the way of
salvation it propounded -- was Christianity a universal religion or merely an
extension of Second Temple Judaism? Did the Gentile have to become a Jew a
proselyte, a "naturalized Jews," in order to be saved? This involved
more than just religious conversion; it required substituting one's own racial
alliance and culture for that of the Jews. It meant that certain external
allegiances and deeds are a part of the conditions for Christian salvation.
The Church's
cross-cultural experience had exposed a major theological issue. How was it
now to be solved? It was referred to a meeting in Jerusalem;
Acts assumes the church of that city held a recognized authority, the nature
of which is not clarified.(11) But, what was to be the basis for making a
decision? Certainly not a majority vote; Paul and the Antiochenes could not
have gone to a more unfavorable location were that the case. Acts assumes that
the meeting(12) sought to determine the will of God.
We do not have the
complete "minutes" of the meeting, only a brief summary of the
conclusions reached, "after there had been much debate" (vs. 7). It
appears that Luke intends to supply only the barest outline of the type of
thinking that went into the solution which emerged from the Council.
Yet, the account provides important insights into how this was determined.
Luke summarizes the position and arguments of the Judaizers in vss. 1, 5, and
7 ff. Inclusion of statements by Peter(13) and James for the Jerusalem
Church and by Barnabas and Paul for the Church of the Gentiles is probably
intended to demonstrate that the "mainline" position of the Church,
both in Jerusalem and
elsewhere, recognized that God's will was that uncircumcised Gentiles be
included as believers on the basis of justification by faith without Jewish
ceremonial requirements.
Two types of evidence
went into this decision. First, reviewing experiences of the past indicated
how God had worked and reacted in matters related to Gentiles who believed in
Jesus. Peter cited the Cornelius incident as a "precedent case" in
which the principles involved in the issue before the Council
had already been established and accepted by the Church. As the uncircumcised
Gentile Cornelius had been brought into the community at the direction (vs. 7)
and with the approval (vs. 8) of God, so all uncircumcised Gentiles are fit
candidates for membership in the Church. Jewish and Gentile believers stand on
equal footing before God for he makes "no distinction," he is not a
"respecter of persons" (15:9; comp. 10:34; cf. 15:11).
The
Christian way of salvation, he says, is by grace through faith in Jesus (vs.
11, cf. vs 9).(14)
Barnabas and Paul then
"related what signs and wonders God had done among the Gentiles through
them" (vs. 12). They are said to have laid stress upon what God had done,
evidenced by visible manifestations. Thus they employed the same argument
Peter had used when questioned following his visit to Cornelius (cf. Acts 11:5
ff., esp. vs 17). The Judaizers were then placed in the position of denying
the validity of the missionaries' reports, opposing what God had ordered and
confirmed, or yielding the point.
Appeal to Scripture is
the second type of evidence employed by the Council
for determining the will of God. This, Luke says, was the contribution of
James, the Relative of Jesus,
James the so-called Just, is not the Brother of the
ONLY Begotten Son of God. James was the son of Zebedee. Now, was Mary the
Virgin united in Adultery with Zebedee? Treasonous Blasphemous Vipers Wake up
!
who at that time was the
acknowledged leader of the Jerusalem
Church and probably the official most likely to be favorable to the Judaizer's
position.
For by these Talmudic Laws, This James and all the
Judaeo-Churchinsanity Proselytes of zion, undermind the Absolute Authority of
the King of Kings, Salvation given Freely by Grace....do not be deceived
For the third time in
this account (in the span of eight verses) the author notes the emphasis that
it was God who had ordained that Gentiles should be brought into the Christian
fellowship. This James supports by quoting Amos 9:11-12.(15) On the basis of
this and similar OT passages(16) first century Jews were looking for the
exaltation of the Davidic Messiah and the submission of the Gentiles to his
rule. In Acts 15 the Church, with James as its spokesman, claims that this is
precisely what was happening in the Gentile mission.
Setting
up the coming Talmudic Judaic zionist Moshiach the Proselytes too, will
accept, for they are apostate in the Leaven of the rib-eye Hasidic rabid
Chabad Lubavitcher son's of the synagogues of satan
James affirmed that the
type of evidence from experience related by Peter and by Paul and Barnabas,
was precisely what, on the basis of the Hebrew Scriptures, should have been
expected. Thus, the way Luke selects and presents material, by his associating
influential Church leaders with the views expressed in Acts 15:7-19, and by
his claim that the letter from the Council
was sent in the name of "the apostles, and the elders, with the whole
Church" (vs. 22) he indicates the conviction that an accord was reached
which rejected the necessity of Gentiles submitting to circumcision and other
Jewish observances as conditions for Christian salvation. I suggest a summary
of the Council's
findings to this point might have looked something like this:
The Council
thus recognized that experience has shown that God did not require Cornelius
and the other Gentiles to become proselytes before giving his approval to
their Christian profession. This is consistent with the predictions about the
Final Age of Salvation History found in the OT. Therefore, we must conclude
that it is not necessary for Gentiles to become proselytes (including
submitting to circumcision and accepting the yoke of Torah) in order to become
Christians. We must realize that the scope of the new Israel is much broader
than that of old Israel; the Messianic community established by Jesus includes
all, Jews and Gentiles, circumcised and uncircumcised, who have received the
grace of God by faith in Jesus.
Other than holding
tenaciously to the fact and implications of monotheism, covenant, and Torah,
Second Commonwealth Judaism was more concerned with right actions (orthopraxy)
than right belief (orthodoxy). It is little wonder that the convocation in Jerusalem
moved immediately to face some of the practical implications that its
theological conclusions would inevitably raise in predominately Jewish
communities.
At least three facts lie
behind the proceedings recorded in the rest of Acts 15. First, the doctrine of
salvation by grace through faith does not mean there are no moral and ethical
standards for Christians. Jewish Christians were well aware that Gentile ways
of life and moral standards could be vastly different from those acceptable
within Christianity. The "side effects" or "pollutions" of
idolatry might remain as ingrained habits long after the Gentile believer had
given up the actual worship of idols. In addition, not all Gentile sexual
irregularities, abortions, murder of slaves, infanticides, etc. were performed
as acts of pagan worship. Jewish aversion to table fellowship with Gentiles
was based upon more than fear of meat which had been dedicated in a pagan
temple. Gentile practices and attitudes at these points were often
interrelated as parts of a life style engendered by the pagan cultures from
which the Gentile Christians came. Another complicating fact was that paganism
did not necessarily associate a particular ethic with a given religious
commitment; Gentile Christians had to be taught that faith and practice are
inseparably related.
Secondly, just as it was
clear that Gentiles did not have to disavow totally their national and
cultural origins, neither were Jewish Christians required to reject theirs.
This is not plainly stated in the text but is implied(17) by Paul's later
assumption of a Jewish vow (Acts 18:18), his claim to "become as a Jew to
the Jews" (I Cor 9:20), and the continuing practice of at least some
Jewish ceremonies by Jewish Christians evidenced in both the New Testament and
other early Christian records. This was complicated by the fact that most
Gentiles disregarded and actually held animosity for the Jewish ways of life,
especially for their dietary restrictions and other regulations for ceremonial
purity.
Finally, Jewish
Christians were faced with the dilemma. How could they accept and associate
with Gentile believers, as Christianity affirmed, and at the same time
separate themselves from such individuals, situations, and foods that would
render them ceremonially unclean and consequently unacceptable by their Jewish
co-religionists and countrymen.
Continued
to remained yoked to the curse of the Law
In other words, an
understanding of the cultural differences between Jews and Greeks, appears to
have forced the Council
to face the implications of its soteriological decision. It had to hold high
the banner of the monotheistic nature of Christianity in the midst of a world
in which syncretism was common. It had to affirm the fact of ethical
implications of Christianity and to provide Gentile Christians with some
guidelines for Christian living. Furthermore, a framework was needed to permit
Jewish Christians to accept and associate with Gentile believers while, at the
same time, maintaining the regulations which would make possible their
continued participation in at least parts of Jewish culture and their
association with non-Christian, practicing Jews. To be effective, any such
framework must be acceptable by non-Christian as well as believing Jews.
No-Hide
Laws
I suggest it was to meet
just such a cross-cultural challenge that the so-called "decrees" of
the Jerusalem Council
were put forward (15:20, 29; cf. 21:25). In the canonical text these state
that Gentile Christian should abstain (or "keep away") from (1) the
pollution of idols; (2) fornication (or "unchastity"); (3) things
strangled; and (4) blood. The fact of variant text forms of the decrees(18) is
well known.(19) There is also uncertainty on the meaning of "abstain from
blood." Is it a moral prohibition against murder or a ceremonial
restriction against ingesting blood?
In the Jewish
interpretive methods
(Oral
Tradition which make the WORD of none effect)
of
the day a part could stand for the whole and items and texts could be gathered
together and interpreted as a single group.(20) Hence, "pollution of
idols" might not only affirm monotheism but also reject all that went
with idolatry. All sexual sins and acts of violence would be included in the
prohibitions against fornication and "blood," if, indeed, this
refers to murder. The prohibition against "things strangled" and
"blood," if the latter is a dietary injunction, must then be
understood as including the whole spectrum of Jewish regulations for clean and
unclean. In short, the decrees may refer to the three major concerns faced by
Jews when associating with Gentiles (1) idolatry and all associated with it,
(2) low ethical and moral standards among Gentiles, and (3) Gentile disregard
for Jewish ceremonies, customs, and religio-cultural tabus.
Totally
rejecting Salvation freely Given by Grace Alone
Both OT and later
forms of Judaism already contained provisions and regulations for
Jewish-Gentile association. The OT placed certain restrictions upon the
"stranger," the ger, that permitted the Gentile who complied with
them to live in the land of Israel as a resident alien.(21) Lev. 17 and 18
lists certain prohibitions which are in precisely the same order as three of
the "decrees" of Acts 15.(22) Within Hellenistic Judaism both
Josephus and the Sibylline Oracles refer to observances of Jewish laws and
customs by Gentiles.(23) Rabbinic writings list laws(24) which the Rabbis felt
were binding upon all the sons of Noah, i.e., all of mankind, but practically
speaking, could be required only of the "stranger" (ger) and
God-fearers.
There is
no difference in jew or gentile for they who have put on faith in Jesus the
Christ. Judaism is only a religion, and in no wise can a religious jew of
talmudic Judaism have Christ Jesus. Only if they convert into Christ by faith,
and then they are no longer a flesh Jew but a new creature in Jesus the
Christ. These deceiving Vipers of the "Replacement Theology" have
elected to be cast from the True Vine of The Creator the ROOT. Only the True
Branches are remained in Jesus the Lord. When these branched which were cast
off from the Root's Vine for their rejection of the Vine, Repent in the same
Christ the Word the Creator, then THEY can be Grafted Back into the Vine the
Word which Abraham believed. It is not the Talmudic Judaic Version of the
zionazi's which are attempting to have the stupid apostate Goyim grafted into
them who they say are the ROOT and them who say they are the True Vine. These
to will be cut-off from the True Vine the Root and the Offspring the Lord
Jesus the Christ, God come in the Flesh the same since the Beginning....DO YOU
UNDERSTAND ?
It is, therefore,
obvious that there already existed within Second Temple Judaism some
expectations of Gentiles who desired associations with Jews.
Dig into the Wall Ezekiel and see what these ancient
Giborim do in the House of the LORD, see their Abominations they
do........Ezek 8
These regulations
protected against idolatry, provided at least minimal moral and ethical
guidelines, insisted upon some sensitivity toward Jewish dietary laws and
other parts of Kashrut.
These yokes which satan will snare all whose names
are not written in the Lamb's Book of Life since the foundation of the
world, say that if any man stands firm for the Testimony of Jesus the Christ,
whom they say is a bastard and the son of a whore and a ROMAN Soldier, and who
is in hell boiling in human excrement, IS not of Christ Jesus, But of the
Talmudic Freemason James the Just and the so-called apostate heretic
"Jerusalem Council" and that Council is now "Revived with the
Sanhedrin" the Beast is Risen....BEWARE of the Leaven of these Pharisees
I beg you people to understand in the name above all names Jesus the Christ
the LORD God and his Father
Certainly those
regulations which came from outside the OT as well as the classification
"God Fearer," would not necessarily have been accepted by all Jews.
But at least they provided some framework for Jewish-Gentile association,
acceptable by both Christian and at least some non-Christian Jews. It was on
some such basis that James could put forward as an argument for the decrees
that "from early generations Moses has had in every city those who preach
him, for he is read every sabbath in the synagogues" (vs 21).
as is in
"AMARAKA"
The wording of the
letter communicating the Council's
decision is instructive regarding the purpose of the "decrees." They
are described as "these necessary things" (toutwn twn epanagkeV) but
without any indication for what they are necessary (vs 28). After listing the
decrees vs 29 simply stated, "If you keep yourselves from these you will
do well (eu praxete).
"
They are not of the essence of Christian salvation, but rather speak to the
order of the Church.
Gone
apostate for Iniquity doth Already work
There are numerous
issues and questions arising from the Acts 15 account of the Council
of Jerusalem which we
cannot consider here. It remains to summarize the major implications of our
study. We have been reminded of the inseparable relationship between faith and
history, between the experiences of God's people and the clarification and
precise stating of theology. It is evident that cross-cultural exposure was
good for the Church; it forced facing issues which led to clarifications and
better understanding of the revelation, the will, and the work of God and his
purpose.
and work
the Leaven of the Pharisees who are now doing the exact same to complacent
apostate Churchinsanity
There are matters that
transcend culture; on these there could be no compromise. In them the very
heart of the Christian faith is at stake. Hence, Luke asserts that the Jerusalem
Council
acknowledged the principle of salvation by grace through faith as the
soteriological position of the Church. Conversely, it refused to require that
Gentiles be circumcized and obey the Mosaic Torah. For Christianity is a
universal religion, it is not bound to any one national, racial, or cultural
group. There can be no requirements for inclusion in the fellowship of
Christians (= the Church) which God has not made for salvation. Specifically,
this means that national, racial, and cultural restrictions as, absolute
requirements, have no place within Christian theology. True religion
offers salvation by grace, as a gift. False religion, including paganism and
idolatry, seeks and worships false gods. It may also seek to obtain the favor
of the right God in the wrong way. Legalistic religion
is one form of such false religion, it may
include seeking salvation through the laws and ceremonies of Judaism; it also
includes any attempt to obtain salvation through any form of human effort.
Furthermore, while
Christian salvation is a free gift, apart from law and other forms of human
effort, it is not devoid of ethical and moral implications for those who have
received God's grace. There are great spiritual principles that are rooted in
the nature of God which affect behavior. God's jealousy for his own position
is the basis for the condemnation of idolatry and all that goes with it. There
are also moral and ethical principles in God's nature which are the basis for
universal right and wrong. The Christian, the individual in personal relation
to God, who seeks to conform life and actions to these principles, will avoid
doing anything offensive to God and, positively, will do that which pleases
him. Prohibitions against sexual impropriety and murder are but a part of the
whole of the moral law which governs the life of one who has been saved by
grace and desires to live in a way pleasing God.
In addition there are
matters that are rooted in local and cultural practices and attitudes. They do
not involve basic spiritual or moral principles and in them the Christian may
exercise freedom but always within the context of love and responsibility.(25)
In these the Christian is free from the obligation to conform as a mandate
based on God's will and nature. At the same time love and responsibility
requires sensitivity for the effects of behavior upon God, other Christians,
and unbelievers. In determining conduct in non-spiritual or ethical matters,
love for God will always cause one to ask, "What effect will this or that
action have upon the non-Christian's view of God and of his church?"
Concern for the fellow
Christian prompts one to act responsibly and lovingly, with sensitivity. The
Christian may need to adapt conduct out of deference to personal feelings or
cultural preferences of those who are fellow members of the household of God.
This seems to be the spirit behind the inclusion of abstinence from
"things strangled" within the list of things "necessary"
in order to "do well" in the cultural mix of Jewish and Gentile
Christians in the Levant(26) in the first century.
The implications are
obvious. Broad exposure, the consequence of the universality of the Church,
will raise issues parochial Christians will never see. In those matters which
are of the essence of the Church there can be no compromise. In matters of
cultural or personal preference, the principles of freedom and responsibility,
of charity and sensitivity, must reign as the Church seek to adapt to changing
circumstances, situations, and cultures.

The MT and LXX versions
of Acts 9:11-12, and Acts 15:16-18 compared:(27)
Amos 9:11-12, MT (RSV)
In that day I will raise
up the booth of David that is fallen and repair its breaches, and raise up
its ruins, and rebuild it as in the days of old; {12} that they may possess
the remnant of Edom and all the nations who are called by my name,"
says the Lord who does this.
Jesus

will re-establish his House on his Mount in Heaven Sion, and Jesus the temple
torn down and risen on the Third Day the Light of it, and the Lamb sacrificed
therein, Salvation and the Groom of his New Bride New Jerusalem, and you who
believe in truth and His Righteousness are the invited Guest, and the Bride
says Come my Children
Amos 9:11-12, LXX
In that day I will raise
up the tabernacle of David which has fallen, and will rebuild the its ruins,
and will set up its parts that have been broken down, and I will build it up
as in the former days: {12} that the rest of men, and all the Gentiles, who
are called by my name, says the Lord who does all these things.
Acts 15:16-18 (RSV)
After this I will return,
and I will rebuild the dwelling of David, which has fallen; I will rebuild
its ruins, and I will set it up, {17} that the rest of men may seek the Lord
and all the Gentiles who are called by my name, {18} says the Lord, who has
made these things known from of old.
The LXX represents a
spiritualized and universalized interpretation of the prediction of the
restoration of David's sovereignty and its renewed extension over the Gentile
nations. The ascription of this LXX reading to James is one of those internal
factors in Acts 15 which have caused some scholars to doubt the historical
accuracy of the Council
record.
The implied assumption
that the type of interpretation represented in the LXX version of Amos 9:11-12
was current only in those circles in which the LXX text was used is
questionable at best. Nevertheless, the attack on Acts 15 rising out of the
ascription of a distinctively LXX quotation to James warrants further
examination. The quotation may indeed indicate that Luke was composing freely
without regard to the actual occurrence of a meeting. There are, however,
other possible explanations. Luke may have known of such a Council
as described in Acts 15 and that Amos 9:11-12 played a part in its
deliberations. In his account he may have then quoted from the LXX without
realizing its difference from the MT. Again, he may have deliberately placed
this form of the passage in James' mouth because, in his opinion, it
accurately represented the position and type of argumentation James used (or
might have used) in these circumstances. Finally, James may actually have
quoted from the LXX and intended the interpretation suggested in Acts 15.
It should be observed
that those who reject the legitimacy of the form and setting of Amos 9:11-12
in Acts 15 make three assumptions which are not beyond question. They assume
(1) the accuracy of the extra-Biblical picture of James
as an Aramaic-speaking Hebraic Christian who was deeply devoted to traditional
legalistic Jewish piety, (2) that the MT represents the oldest and/or
the only form of the Hebrew text, and (3) that the MT rendering of Amos
9:11-12 is incompatible with the interpretation built upon it in Acts 15.
The assumed strict
Hebraic character of James assumes the accuracy of the portrayal of him in the
descriptions of Hegesippus-Eusebius (EH 2.23) and other post-NT writings. This
is not necessarily the case.(28) At this point it should be noted that if he
was a member of the family of Jesus, as Gal. 1:19(29) and virtually all early
tradition attest, then almost certainly he came from Galilee. Galilee had a
much closer contact with the Greek world and language than did Judea.(30)
Consequently, there is every reason to assume that James spoke Greek and was
familiar with the LXX. Since Greek was probably the primary language of "the
others" from Antioch who attended the Council
(vs. 2), the whole or a part of the proceedings, including James' summation,
may have been in Greek in deference to them.
Furthermore, the
possible fluidity of the state of the Hebrew text in the first century makes
it unwise to put too much emphasis on the difference between the MT and LXX.
As C. C. Torrey pointed out
We do not know to what
extent the Greek varied from the Aramaic -- or rather, Hebrew. . . . Rabbi
Akiba and his followers had not yet set up a 'standard' text of the Prophets;
the author of this Aramaic document [the source Torrey sees behind Acts 15]
was at liberty to select the reading which best suited his purpose; and the
LXX rendering of Amos 9.11 f. certainly represented a varying Hebrew (italics
his) text.(31)
the
rabbi's of Talmud set up the Council at Jerusalem
Recent discovery may
have added some support to this statement. Although such ancient sources as
the Targum of Jonathan and the Peshitta agree with the MT, such Dead Sea
documents as 4Q Florilegium and CDC 7:16, with Acts 15, read, "And I will
build (causative) the tabernacle of David" as opposed to "In that
day I will raise up (imperfect)" of both the MT and LXX. In any case, C.
C. Torrey make a very important point.
The
Bible is not Holy, it has been Tampered with. Jesus said Beware of the
Scribes. KJV only have made it into an Idol, and they worship the KJV and know
not that it is only Pen and Ink in a Leather Binder. The Bible only Gives
Witness of Jesus the Christ from the beginning to the Ending and He alone the
LIVING WORD is HOLY, and his WORD by faith is written into the hearts of them
who believe the Word the Living Word Jesus the Christ.....DO NOT BE DECEIVED
Even our Massoretic
Hebrew would have served the present purpose admirably, since it predicts that
'the tabernacle of David,' i.e., the Church of the Messiah, would 'gain
possession of all the nations which were called by the name [of the God of
Israel].' Cf. vs. 14 where we are told that this quotation was expected to
prove: o qeoV epeskeyato labein ex eqnwn laon tw onomati autou(32) [="God

the current movement toward regarding Luke as a theologian rather than a
(reliable) historian.
There is
no need for further assessments, for they are now openly "REVEALED"
by the same LORD since the Beginning. It is the Lord Almighty Alone who have
allowed them to do their evil in spite of His Salvation, for by their Laws
they themselve's will be Judged and cast out of His Kingdom for ever. For he
alone is the Law Fulfilled

now collected in Studies in the Acts of the Apostles. Translated by

Building upon the work

Schubert (Nashville: Abingdon Press, 1966). These writers and those who
follow them tend, in one way or another, to be suspicious of the historicity
of much of Luke-Acts.
And well
they should for the Leaven has now ruined almost the whole loaf
Examples of contemporary
approaches to Acts which affirm its historical reliability are exemplified by
Colin J. Hemer, The Book of Acts in the Setting of Hellenistic History.
(Tübingen: J. C. B. Mohr, 1989); F. F. Bruce, The Acts of the Apostles:
Greek Text with Introduction and Commentary. (3d ed. Grand Rapids:
Eerdmans, 1990) and Commentary on the Book of the Acts (NICNT; Rev ed;
Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1988); Martin Hengel, Acts and the History of
Earliest Christianity. Trans by John Bowden. (Philadelphia: Fortress,
1979); I. Howard Marshall, The Acts of the Apostles. An Introduction and
Commentary. (TNTC; Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1980) and Luke Historian and
Theologian. (Enlarged ed.; Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1989); David J.
Williams. Acts (New International Bible Commentary; Peabody, MASS:
Hendrickson, 1990).
Even more recent
attitudes are reflected in Charles H. Talbert, ed. Luke Acts: New
Perspectives from the Society of Biblical Literature Seminar (New York:
Crossroads, 1984). Of particular interest for this study is Earl Richard,
"The Divine Purpose: The Jews and the Gentile Mission (Acts 15),"
188-209 who provides helpful in sights with essentially a structuralist
approach.
(8) I have dealt at
length with the Council
of Jerusalem, its
interpretation and issues related to it, in my doctoral thesis "The
History and Influence of the Church of Jerusalem,
A.D. 30-100: An Investigation of the Growth of Internal Factions and the
Extension of its Influence in the Larger Church." (Presented to the
University of Manchester, England, 1969. [Available through University
Microfilms International. 300 N. Zeeb Road, Ann Arbor, MI 48106; publication
No. 1-8635.00), 169-197.
(9) Cf. Bruce, Commentary
on Acts, 302.
(10) W.D. Davies, Torah
in the Messianic Age and/or the Age to Come (JBL Monograph;
Philadelphia: Society of Biblical Literature, 1952) cf. The Setting of
Sermon on the Mount (Cambridge: At the University Press, 1964).
(11) The Western text
recasts 15:2 to place the initiative for this action with the Judaizers; the
canonical text actually favors this interpretation. Grammatically it is quite
natural to take oi katelqonteV apo thV ?IoudaiaV as the subject of etaxan.
Peter and John's visit to Samaria (8:14 ff.) and Barnabas' mission to Antioch
(11:22 ff.) also confirm that Luke regards the Jerusalem
Church as having some authority over other Churches (Acts 20:38; 21:5).
Elsewhere in Acts propempw means "to
accompany," "to escort" rather than "to send
forth." The Judaizers in Antioch appear to have
thought they represented the official Jerusalem
position and it is only natural to assume they were the ones who
appealed to their home Church. Peter's withdrawal from fellowship with
Gentiles may have given them reason to expect support from at least one of the
Pillars.
Paul severely
reprimanded Peter for the Judaism he put forth.
Paul also acknowledged
at least some priority for the Jerusalem
Church. He may have argued (as he does in Gal. 2) that previously the Jerusalem
leaders had not objected to his gospel. He doubtless was anxious for the Jerusalem
Pillars to clearly and openly state their position. Nevertheless, it is hardly
possible that Paul and his followers were willing to submit to a trial in Jerusalem
as indicated in the Western text; the sentiments of Gal. 1:8 f. do not
characterize a man whose adherence to principles could be altered by the
majority vote of any body or court.
Trial
because Paul refused to teach their Talmudic laws of Noahide
(12) Acts 15:4, speaks
of "the church and the apostles and the elders," later Luke mentions
"all the multitude" (vs. 12), and "the whole church" (vs.
22), probably referring to one or more general meetings of the Church at Jerusalem.
Vs. 6 (comp. vs 2) may envision a smaller gathering of
the Judaizers, Paul's party, and "the apostles and elders," where
the real work of deliberation was conducted.
(13) If Luke's
chronology is accurate, Peter, having earlier escaped from prison (Acts 12:1
ff.), was a fugitive from the secular authorities in Jerusalem
at the time of the Council.
Consequently, some students have disregarded this notice of his presence or
used it is an argument for dating the Council
prior to Peter's arrest. However, Luke (and the other Gospel writers) has
noted earlier occasions, following the deaths of Jesus and Stephen, when Peter
(and other Apostles) were present in Jerusalem
in spite of personal danger. Also, Peter's chief persecutor, Herod Agrippa I,
was probably dead by the time of the Acts 15 Council.
(14) Some commentators
(e.g., Haenchen, Acts, 459; R. P. C. Hanson, Acts, 160 f) have thought them
too Hellenistic and/or Pauline to admit as Petrine utterances. While the
Pharisees would not have described Torah as a "yoke" or
"burden" such sentiments might well be characteristic of a
Palestinian "average Jew" from Galilee (so Bruce, Acts: Greek Text,
337 f). The doctrine of universal salvation by repentance and faith in Jesus
presented here is essentially the same as that of the Petrine speeches (Acts 2
:21 = Joel 2:32; Acts 2:28 f.; 3:19; 4:12; 5:31; 10:42); it is the soteriology
to be expected of one who approved and added nothing to Paul's gospel (Gal.
2:2, 6 ff.) and is in harmony with the emphasis upon salvation by faith in the
epistle ascribed to Peter (I Pet. 1:5, 9, 18 ff., esp. 21; 2:6 f.; 3:18 ).
(15) See Appendix 1.
(16) Note that Isa
11:10, "him shall the nations seek," is quoted by James.
(17) But Justin Martyr,
Dialog 47, acknowledges that some second century Gentile Christians did not
believe a Jew could be saved if he continues to observe Jewish institutions.
(18) The Western text
(including D and Irenaeus Against Heresies 3:12,14) omits "things
strangled" but adds a negative form of the "golden rule:"
"And whatever you do not wish to be done to you, do not to others."
Tertullian (On Modesty 12) not only follows D by omitting "things
strangled" but also omits the negative rule (but he mentions that
Christians abstain from eating "things strangled" in Apology 9 and
quotes the negative rule in Against Marcion 4:16). P45 (the Chester Beatty
papyrus) supports Origen (Against Celsus 8:29) and the Rendel Harris
manuscript of Didascalia by retaining "things strangled" but
omitting "fornication."
The order given above is
that of Acts 15:20. Two other places in Acts, in which the decrees are given,
the order is different. For an example, in the Alexandrian-Byzantine text the
order in Acts 15:29 is 1, 4, 3, 2; in 21:25 it is 1, 4, 2, 3.

these elsewhere, see my "The Church of Jerusalem,"

(21) Such individuals
were to abstain from blaspheming the name of
Yahweh (YWVH)
(Lev. 24:16, 22), from idols (Lev. 20:2), from sorcery, incest, and other
abominations (Lev. 18:26), from marriage within prohibited degrees (Lev.
18:6-26), and from working on the Sabbath day (Ex. 20:10; 23:12.). The
stranger was also bound by the same sacrificial ordinances as the Israelites
(Lev. 17:8; Num. 15:14); certain feasts (of Weeks and Tabernacles) were to be
seasons of rejoicing for him (Deut. 16:11, 14); he was not permitted to eat
leaven bread during the Passover season (Ex. 12:19), but was forbidden to
share the Paschal meal (Ex. 12:42 ff.). He was to cease from all work on Yom
ha-Kippurim (Lev. 16:29). This summary is from E. G. Hirsch,
"Gentile," Jew. Ency. V, 615 f.
(22) Although primarily
addressed "to Aaron and his sons and to all the people of Israel"
(17:1, etc.) these injunctions are also clearly considered as binding upon the
"stranger" (cf. 17:8, 10, 12, 13, 15; 18:26). They may be divided
into three general categories. (1) Lev. 17:1-9 restricts the offering of
sacrifices to the central sanctuary; vs. 7 makes clear that this control is
intended as a preventive measure against idolatry. (2) Lev. 17:10-16 prohibits
the eating of blood or of flesh with blood still in it. (3) Lev. 18:6-23 deals
with several types of sexual perversions.
(23) Josephus (Against
Apion II:39 [282]) claims to know of numerous Gentiles who observed the Jewish
Sabbath and food laws. The Sibylline Oracles IV:24 ff., 162 ff.
pronounce a blessing on those (Gentiles) who recognize the true God, abstain
from idolatry and idolatrous sacrifices, murder, violence, theft, and
immorality. They also speak of washing "from head to foot in running
streams."
(24) Six of these
commandments are said to have been enjoined upon Adam: (l) not to worship
idols; (2) not to blaspheme the name of God; (3) to establish courts of
justice; (4) not to kill; (5) not to commit adultery; and (6) not to rob. A
seventh commandment, not to eat flesh which had been cut from a living animal
(cf. Gen. 9:4), was added after the flood.
ONLY in
the oral tradition of the Pharisaic Talmudic rib-eyes
Although the Talmud
frequently speaks of the "seven laws of the sons of Noah," the
Rabbinic lists vary in number from six to more than thirty; cf. Julius H.
Greenstone, "Laws, Noachian," Jew. Ency. VIII, 648 ff.; Schürer
, HJP II:2, 381, n. 297
66 + 6
...now
Lists of the seven
Noachian laws differ slightly in content, order and wording. The above list is
given by Greenstone, 648 f. Gen. R. Noah XXXIV (quoted by Montefiore and Lowe,
Anthology, 556) prohibits (1) idolatry, (2) incest,(3) shedding of blood, (4)
profanation of the name of God,(5) injustice, (6) robbery, (7) cutting off
flesh from a living animal. The Talmud, Sanhedrin 56b commands: (1)
obedience to those in authority,
(rib-eyes)
(2)
to sanctify the name of God, (3) to abstain from idolatry, (4) to commit no
fornication, (5) to do no murder, (6) not to steal, and (7) not to eat living
flesh,i.e., flesh with blood in it.
Their
god has No Only Begotten Son, and if you say that Jesus is God come in the
flesh as they hated Jesus they will hate his servants even more, and them too
they will seek to slay by their Laws and their Laws is death by decapitation
to a "Goyim" in Jesus the Christ
(25) For this
terminology I am indebted to F. F. Bruce, both his lectures and The Letter of
Paul to the Romans: An Introduction and Commentary (TNTC; Rev ed; Grand
Rapids: Eerdmans, 1985), 230-244; comp Paul: Apostle of the Heart Set Free
(Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1977).
(26) The intended
destination of the "decrees" is not clear. Acts 15:22 says they were
sent "to Antioch." The text of the letter begun in the following
verse addresses "brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria
and Cilicia." 16:4 implies they were "delivered for observance"
in South Central Asia Minor (the places Paul and Barnabas visited during their
first missionary journey). There may be allusions to the decrees in 2 Pet 2:12
and Rev 2:14, 29 (also Tertullian, Apology, 9; Eusebius EH 5:1,26; Clementine
Recognitions 1:19; 4:38; and Homilies 7:8; 8:19) which imply a much wider
distribution and knowledge of the decrees.

Origen locates the scene
of the Council at
Antioch rather than in Jerusalem.
While he may have known of a P 45-type text, this discrepancy may indicate
that Origen was (1) quoting freely and omitted pniktou either by design or by
accident, or (2) was familiar with a tradition independent of Acts which
located the Council in
Antioch and gave a tri-partite version of the decrees.
(34) Cf. On Modesty
12:4. In commenting on the Acts passage Tertullian thrice (On Modesty 12:5, 8,
11) uses "idololatria."
(35) The RSV and Lake
(BC V, 205) translate this phrase "abstain from the
pollution of idols." Thus this element is interpreted not strictly
as a prohibition of eating meat offered to idols or as a prohibition of
participation in a pagan rite, but as a reference to idolatry in general and
all that was associated with it. Cf. C. S. C. Williams, Alterations, 73; Acts,
178.

does not mention the negative form of the Golden rule in connection with the
decrees he quotes it elsewhere, Against Marcion 4:16.

Jerusalem Council
of Civilizations
Goals and Rationale
The Jerusalem Summit to be held on November 28, 2004, will launch the
development of the Council of Civilizations, which is
intended to evolve into a new model for unifying the international community
and providing it with an ethical compass.
The seven Laws of Noahide
The Council of Civilizations may be described as a
“Voice of Ethics” for the international community, with the goal of
working alongside the United Nations to fill the gap which exists in its
structure.
A great deal of criticism has been voiced at the United Nations for failing
in this task because it has no accountability and therefore does not command
the respect of its member states. A true and lasting venue for constructive
engagement must be built upon universal ethical
principles: a foundation that all sides recognize as sacred. There is
only one place in the world that commands the respect and awe of a majority of
the world’s nations and its three major religions: Jerusalem, the Holy City.
That Spiritual Sodom and Egypt where our Lord was
crucified (Rev.)
The world needs a non-political body alongside the United Nations, where
the best minds of the nations would develop universal
ethical norms that would be observed by all the governments and serve
as basis for solving humanity’s major global problems.
This will be the son of Perdition, the Moshiach ben
satan the False Christ they will "REVEAL" solution for the world.
The World must be purged of satan's very last enemies, the saints who stand
Firm in their testimony of Jesus the Christ, but they shall fail and they
shall FALL and that son of perdition and his prophet and all them who have
accepted him and his flesh kingdom which is no kingdom and his Mark shall be
cast into outer Darkness.
Unlike the current U.N. framework, governments will not be represented at
the Council. It will be comprised of the best minds of 12 world’s principal
civilizations.
The council of TWELVE.......but of course
It is the civilizations that, with their distinct cultures and
religious philosophies, are the real players on the world stage, and conflicts
between them are the most dangerous and destructive. In the Council they will
be represented by individuals who carry moral and
intellectual authority with their respective civilizations.
These individuals will be chosen through
independent public opinion polls, rather than nominated by their governments.
In Persian and Arab civilizations, where most regimes are non-democratic and
expression of free will is nonexistent, Council members will be selected from
among exiled dissidents.
Council members will not be accountable to their governments, nor be
dependent on them, either financially or legally. They will be guided solely
by their conscience and major universal ethic principles
The membership of the Council and its Executive Committee will be fully
rotated on the annual basis. The Executive Committee will draft the agenda,
and administer the Council’s sessions in Jerusalem.
Then they will send the Letter into all the
Judaeo-Churchinsanity little temples of zion to Abstain from Meet with Blood,
From Worshipping Jesus the Christ.....etc..............
Council members in their respective civilizations will be selected by
regional Jerusalem Summits. JS Asia, JS America, and JS
Europe have already been created.
Council will not issue any binding resolutions. Rather, it
will strive to gain moral authority, so that its
recommendations, developed in the spirit of moral
clarity and caring for future generations, eventually become guidelines
for the world leaders.
Remember Bushkevik's statement to AIPAC
regarding the new "Moral Clarity"
Principles of the Council of
Civilizations
Gathering representatives of the civilizations (not
governments) which are shaping the fate of humanity:
superpowers and clusters of countries with common cultures. Agreeing on the existence and definition of the common
moral basis: the universal ethical laws.
the Talmudic Leaven of the Pharisee hasidim Chabad
Lubavitch son's of satan's Shema-GOG
Searching solutions to the burning
global problems on the basis of these values.
Three-fold actions:
1. Facilitate synergy of civilizations and search for morality-based
solutions.
2. Propagate these solutions and advise
governments to adopt them.
3.Advance Global Education to
Universal Moral Values.
They will brainwash the Children to satan's
religion to weed out the saints in Jesus the Lord
The Jerusalem Summit will invite the United Nations to
recognize the Council of Civilizations as an official entity which will work
alongside the United Nations (in the format of an official,independent
body ( an upper “House” or the model of the British “House of
Lords”) through procedures to be agreed upon.
The seat of the Council will be in
Jerusalem with regional bureaus in each of the represented
civilizations and a permanent bureau at U.N. Headquarters in New York.
Framework:
Admission to the Council of Civilizations is subject to
recognizing the following realities:
1. The spiritual laws that serve as common basis to all
religions must also serve as basis for taking decisions
in all the human activities. Most important of these laws are:
Consciousness defines Being
Flesh
Human life is sacred
Flesh
People have equal rights and freedoms
Under Jesus the Christ
Religions are diverse and all equally lead to God
Jesus is the Only Name in Which to enter
into the Kingdom of heaven
satan ha Mashiach is the way to enter
into eternal damnation of the flesh desire of their Hoodlum haha of murder on
earth
Composition of the Council
Jerusalem has always served as a source for the universal concern for all
the nations on earth. The Bible (Babylonian Babble)
indictates that in addition to Israel, there are seventy ancient nations which
are the roots of the diverse national groups and cultures which exist today
and which are based on the number of descendants of Noah which are listed in
the Book of Genesis, after the story of the great flood. Seventy names are
recorded, and at the end of the section it states, ‘These are the families
of Noah’s descendants, and from these nations were separated on on the earth
after the flood” (Genesis 10:2). The Bible commands the people of Israel to
bring seventy offerings on behalf of the seventy nations to the Temple on the
Festival of Tabernacles to pray to the Almighty for continued life, sustenance
and blessings for the seventy nations.
Jesus the Christ is the ONLY Lamb ever needed for
Salvation, the Promise
Representatives of the seventy nations were present in Jerusalem at the
time at the presentation of these offerings. The seventy nations are the main
players in the modern world. Today they are categorized as the major
superpowers that represent separate civilizations. Other individual
civilizations are represented by the clusters of countries, or regional
groups. The major threat to the world peace comes from the clashes of these
civilizations.
for the shem's are pitting the nations against
Nations, but the END is not yet
For they have not delivered the sainst who Stand Firm
to be afflicted and slain in their freemason temples and their shemaGogs
of satan. When the Last is slain then is the End, that Great and terrible day
of the Lord's wrath.....and they are right, you know....No-Hide for they will
cry for the rocks to fall upon them to Hide from the Wrath of the Lord
South America North America North-Western (Catholic-Protestant) Europe South-Eastern (Orthodox) Europe Russia India China South-East Asia Persian civilization Arab civilization Turkic (Turkey and Central Asia) civilization Africa
The Council of Civilizations will be composed of representatives of these
twelve civilizations and the host representative from Israel.
13 the symbol to replicate the Twelve Diciples of
Jesus the Christ and the twelve Tribes of israel
The Council of Civilizations will bring representatives of these diverse
civilizations together in Jerusalem for the first time since Biblical times
with the goal of creating unity through the translation
of universal spiritual and moral laws into social structure and politics
(“social engineering”).
The Council of Civilizations is not a Religious/Ecumenical forum and it is
not a purely secular Academic/Political institute. It is a framework for the
best and purest minds and hearts of the civilized world – to
guide the world towards spiritual and moral renewal.
What the Council will actually DO?
- It will develop an efficient Alternative Model for
decision making in world politics: Decision through Wisdom and Ethics
not through political or military Force (Realpolitik).
By this Peace they shall slay wonderfully all who
oppose their Order which came out of their Chaos which will Fall
- It will give practical recommendations on how to solve the
most crucial global problems through applying integrating
consciousness, reconciling competing geo-political, geo-economic and
geo-cultural projects.

A Forum of Spiritual and Lay Patrons representing the major faiths
and professions is being formed toward the announcement
of the development of the Council of Civilizations.

Now once again
let us visit the "Forgery" of the so-called anti-Shem
"Protocols of the learned Hasidic Chabad Lubavitch Elders of flesh zion
of the Hoodlum hoo haha of haha satan"
Now the lazy
brain dead may think this is totally repititious.....but what the heck a soul
is a terrible thing to "Waste"
http://www.samliquidation.com/section_14.htm
18. Our absolutism will in all things be logically
consecutive and therefore in each one of its decrees our supreme will be
respected and unquestionably fulfilled: it will ignore all murmurs, all
discontents of every kind and will destroy to the root every kind of
manifestation of them in act by punishment of an exemplary character.
19. We shall abolish the right of cessation, which will be
transferred exclusively to our disposal - to the cognizance of him who rules,
for we must not allow the conception among the people of a thought that there
could be such a thing as a decision that is not right of judges set up by us.
If, however, anything like this should occur, we shall ourselves cassate the
decision, but inflict therewith such exemplary punishment on the judge for
lack of understanding of his duty and the purpose of his appointment as will
prevent a repetition of such cases .... I repeat that it must be born in mind
that we shall know every step of our administration which only needs to be
closely watched for the people to be content with us, for it has the right to
demand from a good government a good official.
20. OUR GOVERNMENT WILL HAVE THE APPEARANCE OF A PATRIARCHAL
PATERNAL GUARDIANSHIP ON THE PART OF OUR RULER. Our own nation and our
subjects will discern in his person a father caring for their every need,
their every act, their every inter-relation as subjects one with another, as
well as their relations to the ruler. They will then be so thoroughly imbued
with the thought that it is impossible for them to dispense with this wardship
and guidance, if they wish to live in peace and quiet, THAT THEY WILL
ACKNOWLEDGE THE AUTOCRACY OF OUR RULER WITH A DEVOTION BORDERING ON
"APOTHEOSIS," especially when they are convinced that those whom we
set up do not put their own in place of authority, but only blindly execute
his dictates. They will be rejoiced that we have regulated everything in their
lives as is done by wise parents who desire to train children in the cause of
duty and submission. For the peoples of the world in regard to the secrets of
our polity are ever through the ages only children under age, precisely as are
also their governments.
21. As you see, I found our despotism on right and duty: the
right to compel the execution of duty is the direct obligation of a government
which is a father for its subjects. It has the right of the strong that it may
use it for the benefit of directing humanity towards that order which is
defined by nature, namely, submission. Everything in the world is in a state
of submission, if not to man, then to circumstances or its own inner
character, in all cases, to what is stronger. And so shall we be this
something stronger for the sake of good.
22. We are obliged without hesitation to sacrifice
individuals, who commit a breach of established order, for in the exemplary
punishment of evil lies a great educational problem.
23. When the King of Israel sets upon his sacred head the
crown offered him by Europe he will become patriarch of the world. The
indispensable victims offered by him in consequence of their suitability will
never reach the number of victims offered in the course of centuries by the
mania of magnificence, the emulation between the GOY governments.
24. Our King will be in constant communion with the peoples,
making to them from the tribune speeches which fame will in that same hour
distribute over all the world.

PROTOCOL No. 16
1. In order to effect the destruction of all collective
forces except ours we shall emasculate the first stage of collectivism - the
UNIVERSITIES, by re-educating them in a new direction. THEIR OFFICIALS AND
PROFESSORS WILL BE PREPARED FOR THEIR BUSINESS BY DETAILED SECRET PROGRAMS OF
ACTION FROM WHICH THEY WILL NOT WITH IMMUNITY DIVERGE, NOT BY ONE IOTA. THEY
WILL BE APPOINTED WITH ESPECIAL PRECAUTION, AND WILL BE SO PLACED AS TO BE
WHOLLY DEPENDENT UPON THE GOVERNMENT.
2. We shall exclude from the course of instruction State Law
as also all that concerns the political question. These subjects will be
taught to a few dozen of persons chosen for their pre-eminent capacities from
among the number of the initiated. THE UNIVERSITIES MUST NO LONGER SEND OUT
FROM THEIR HALLS MILK SOPS CONCOCTING PLANS FOR A CONSTITUTION, LIKE A COMEDY
OR A TRAGEDY, BUSYING THEMSELVES WITH QUESTIONS OF POLICY IN WHICH EVEN THEIR
OWN FATHERS NEVER HAD ANY POWER OF THOUGHT.
3. The ill-guided acquaintance of a large number of persons
with questions of polity creates utopian dreamers and bad subjects, as you can
see for yourselves from the example of the universal education in this
direction of the GOYIM. We must introduce into their education all those
principles which have so brilliantly broken up their order. But when we are in
power we shall remove every kind of disturbing subject from the course of
education and shall make out of the youth obedient children of authority,
loving him who rules as the support and hope of peace and quiet.
WE SHALL CHANGE HISTORY
4. Classicism as also any form of study of ancient history,
in which there are more bad than good examples, we shall replace with the
study of the program of the future. We shall erase from the memory of men all
facts of previous centuries which are undesirable to us, and leave only those
which depict all the errors of the government of the GOYIM. The study of
practical life, of the obligations of order, of the relations of people one to
another, of avoiding bad and selfish examples, which spread the infection of
evil, and similar questions of an educative nature, will stand in the
forefront of the teaching program, which will be drawn up on a separate plan
for each calling or state of life, in no wise generalizing the teaching. This
treatment of the question has special importance.
5. Each state of life must be trained within strict limits
corresponding to its destination and work in life. The OCCASIONAL GENIUS HAS
ALWAYS MANAGED AND ALWAYS WILL MANAGE TO SLIP THROUGH INTO OTHER STATES OF
LIFE, BUT IT IS THE MOST PERFECT FOLLY FOR THE SAKE OF THIS RARE OCCASIONAL
GENIUS TO LET THROUGH INTO RANKS FOREIGN TO THEM THE UNTALENTED WHO THUS ROB
OF THEIR PLACES WHO BELONG TO THOSE RANKS BY BIRTH OR EMPLOYMENT. YOU KNOW
YOURSELVES IN WHAT ALL THIS HAS ENDED FOR THE "GOYIM" WHO ALLOWED
THIS CRYING ABSURDITY.
6. In order that he who rules may be seated firmly in the
hearts and minds of his subjects it is necessary for the time of his activity
to instruct the whole nation in the schools and on the market places about
this meaning and his acts and all his beneficent initiatives.
7. We shall abolish every kind of freedom of instruction.
Learners of all ages have the right to assemble together with their parents in
the educational establishments as it were in a club: during these assemblies,
on holidays, teachers will read what will pass as free lectures on questions
of human relations, of the laws of examples, of the philosophy of new theories
not yet declared to the world. These theories will be raised by us to the
stage of a dogma of faith as a traditional stage towards our faith. On the
completion of this exposition of our program of action in the present and the
future I will read you the principles of these theories.
8. In a word, knowing by the experience of many centuries
that people live and are guided by ideas, that these ideas are imbibed by
people only by the aid of education provided with equal success for all ages
of growth, but of course by varying methods, we shall swallow up and
confiscate to our own use the last scintilla of independence of thought, which
we have for long past been directing towards subjects and ideas useful for us.
The system of bridling thought is already at work in the so-called system of
teaching by OBJECT LESSONS, the purpose of which is to turn the GOYIM into
unthinking submissive brutes waiting for things to be presented before their
eyes in order to form an idea of them .... In France, one of our best agents,
Bourgeois, has already made public a new program of teaching by object
lessons.

PROTOCOL No. 17
1. The practice of advocacy produces men cold, cruel,
persistent, unprincipled, who in all cases take up an impersonal, purely legal
standpoint. They have the inveterate habit to refer everything to its value
for the defense and not to the public welfare of its results. They do not
usually decline to undertake any defense whatever, they strive for an
acquittal at all costs, caviling over every petty crux of jurisprudence and
thereby they demoralize justice. For this reason we shall set this profession
into narrow frames which will keep it inside this sphere of executive public
service. Advocates, equally with judges, will be deprived of the right of
communication with litigant; they well receive business only from the court
and will study it by notes of report and documents, defending their clients
after they have been interrogated in court on facts that have appeared. They
will receive an honorarium without regard to the quality of the defense. This
will render them mere reporters on law-business in the interests of justice
and as counterpoise to the proctor who will be the reporter in the interests
of prosecution; this will shorten business before the courts. In this way will
be established a practice of honest unprejudiced defense conducted not from
personal interest but by conviction. This will also, by the way, remove the
present practice of corrupt bargain between advocation to agree only to let
that side win which pays most .....
WE SHALL DESTROY THE CLERGY
2. WE HAVE LONG PAST TAKEN CARE TO DISCREDIT THE PRIESTHOOD
OF "GOYIM," and thereby to ruin their mission on earth which
in these days might still be a great hindrance to us. Day by day its influence
on the peoples of the world is falling lower. FREEDOM OF CONSCIENCE HAS BEEN
DECLARED EVERYWHERE, SO THAT NOW ONLY YEARS DIVIDE US FROM THE MOMENT OF THE
COMPLETE WRECKING OF THAT CHRISTIAN RELIGION: as to other religions we shall
have still less difficulty in dealing with them, but it would be premature to
speak of this now. We shall act clericalism and clericals into such narrow
frames as to make their influence move in retrogressive proportion to its
former progress.
3. When the time comes finally to destroy the papal court
the finger of an invisible hand will point the nations towards this court.
When, however, the nations fling themselves upon it, we shall come forward in
the guise of its defenders as if to save excessive bloodshed. By this
diversion we shall penetrate to its very bowels and be sure we shall never
come out again until we have gnawed through the entire strength of this place.
4. THE KING OF THE JEWS WILL BE THE REAL POPE OF THE
UNIVERSE, THE PATRIARCH OF THE INTERNATIONAL CHURCH (Antichrist??).
5. But, IN THE MEANTIME, while we are re-educating youth in
new traditional religions and afterwards in ours, WE SHALL NOT OVERTLY LAY A
FINGER ON EXISTING CHURCHES, BUT WE SHALL FIGHT AGAINST THEM BY CRITICISM
CALCULATED TO PRODUCE SCHISM ....
6. In general, then, our contemporary press will continue to
CONVICT State affairs, religions, incapacities of the GOYIM, always using the
most unprincipled expressions in order by every means to lower their prestige
in the manner which can only be practiced by the genius of our gifted tribe
....
7. Our kingdom will be an apologia of the divinity Vishnu,
in whom is found its personification - in our hundred hands will be, one in
each, the springs of the machinery of social life. We shall see everything
without the aid of official police which, in that scope of its rights which we
elaborated for the use of the GOYIM, hinders governments from seeing. In our
programs ONE-THIRD OF OUR SUBJECTS WILL KEEP THE REST UNDER OBSERVATION from a
sense of duty, on the principle of volunteer service to the State. It will
then be no disgrace to be a spy and informer, but a merit: unfounded
denunciations, however, will be cruelly punished that there may be development
of abuses of this right.
8. Our agents will be taken from the higher as well as the
lower ranks of society, from among the administrative class who spend their
time in amusements, editors, printers and publishers, booksellers, clerks, and
salesmen, workmen, coachmen, lackeys, et cetera. This body, having no rights
and not being empowered to take any action on their own account, and
consequently a police without any power, will only witness and report:
verification of their reports and arrests will depend upon a responsible group
of controllers of police affairs, while the actual act of arrest will be
performed by the gendarmerie and the municipal police. Any person not
denouncing anything seen or heard concerning questions of polity will also be
charged with and made responsible for concealment, if it be proved that he is
guilty of this crime.
9. JUST AS NOWADAYS OUR BRETHREN, ARE OBLIGED AT THEIR OWN
RISK TO DENOUNCE TO THE KABAL APOSTATES OF THEIR OWN FAMILY or members who
have been noticed doing anything in opposition to the KABAL, SO IN OUR KINGDOM
OVER ALL THE WORLD IT WILL BE OBLIGATORY FOR ALL OUR SUBJECTS TO OBSERVE THE
DUTY OF SERVICE TO THE STATE IN THIS DIRECTION.
10. Such an organization will extirpate abuses of authority,
of force, of bribery, everything in fact which we by our counsels, by out
theories of the superhuman rights of man, have introduced into the customs of
the GOYIM .... But how else were we to procure that increase of causes
predisposing to disorders in the midst of their administration? .... Among the
number of those methods one of the most important is - agents for the
restoration of order, so placed as to have the opportunity in their
disintegrating activity of developing and displaying their evil inclinations -
obstinate self-conceit, irresponsible exercise of authority, and, first and
foremost, venality.
Index .
PROTOCOL No. 18
1. When it becomes necessary for us to strengthen the strict
measures of secret defense (the most fatal poison for the prestige of
authority) we shall arrange a simulation of disorders or some manifestation of
discontents finding expression through the co- operation of good speakers.
Round these speakers will assemble all who are sympathetic to his utterances.
This will give us the pretext for domiciliary prerequisitions and surveillance
on the part of our servants from among the number of the GOYIM police ....
2. As the majority of conspirators act of love for the game,
for the sake of talking, so, until they commit some overt act we shall not lay
a finger on them but only introduce into their midst observation elements ....
It must be remembered that the prestige of authority is lessened if it
frequently discovers conspiracies against itself: this implies a presumption
of consciousness of weakness, or, what is still worse, of injustice. You are
aware that we have broken the prestige of the GOY kings by frequent attempts
upon their lives through our agents, blind sheep of our flock, who are easily
moved by a few liberal phrases to crimes provided only they be painted in
political colors. WE HAVE COMPELLED THE RULERS TO ACKNOWLEDGE THEIR WEAKNESS
IN ADVERTISING OVERT MEASURES OF SECRETE DEFENSE AND THEREBY WE SHALL BRING
THE PROMISE OF AUTHORITY TO DESTRUCTION.
3. Our ruler will be secretly protected only by the most
insignificant guard, because we shall not admit so much as a thought that
there could exist against him any sedition with which he is not strong enough
to contend and is compelled to hide from it.
4. If we should admit this thought, as the GOYIM have done
and are doing, we should IPSO FACTO be signing a death sentence, if not for
our ruler, at any rate for his dynasty, at no distant date.
GOVERNMENT BY FEAR
5. According to strictly enforced outward appearances our
ruler will employ his power only for the advantage of the nation and in no
wise for his own or dynastic profits. Therefore, with the observance of this
decorum, his authority will be respected and guarded by the subjects
themselves, it will receive an apotheosis in the admission that with it is
bound up the well-being of every citizen of the State, for upon it will depend
all order in the common life of the pack ....
6. OVERT DEFENSE OF THE KIND ARGUES WEAKNESS IN THE
ORGANIZATION OF HIS STRENGTH.
7. Our ruler will always be among the people and be
surrounded by a mob of apparently curious men and women, who will occupy the
front ranks about him, to all appearance by chance, and will restrain the
ranks of the rest out of respect as it will appear for good order. This will
sow an example of restraint also in others. If a petitioner appears among the
people trying to hand a petition and forcing his way through the ranks, the
first ranks must receive the petition and before the eyes of the petitioner
pass it to the ruler, so that all may know that what is handed in reaches its
destination, that consequently, there exists a control of the ruler himself.
The aureole of power requires for is existence that the people may be able to
say: "If the king knew of this," or: "the king will
hear it."
8. WITH THE ESTABLISHMENT OF OFFICIAL DEFENSE, THE MYSTICAL
PRESTIGE OF AUTHORITY DISAPPEARS: given a certain audacity, and everyone
counts himself master of it, the sedition- monger is conscious of his
strength, and when occasion serves watches for the moment to make an attempt
upon authority .... For the GOYIM we have been preaching something else, but
by that very fact we are enabled to see what measures of overt defense have
brought them to ....
9. CRIMINALS WITH US WILL BE ARRESTED AT THE FIRST, more or
less, well-grounded SUSPICION: it cannot be allowed that out of fear of a
possible mistake an opportunity should be given of escape to persons suspected
of a political lapse of crime, for in these matters we shall be literally
merciless. If it is still possible, by stretching a point, to admit a
reconsideration of the motive causes in simple crimes, there is no possibility
of excuse for persons occupying themselves with questions in which nobody
except the government can understand anything .... And it is not all
governments that understand true policy.
Index .
PROTOCOL No. 19
1. If we do not permit any independent dabbling in the
political we shall on the other hand encourage every kind of report or
petition with proposals for the government to examine into all kinds of
projects for the amelioration of the condition of the people; this will reveal
to us the defects or else the fantasies of our subjects, to which we shall
respond either by accomplishing them or by a wise rebuttment to prove the
shortsightedness of one who judges wrongly.
2. Sedition-mongering is nothing more than the yapping of a
lap- dog at an elephant. For a government well organized, not from the police
but from the public point of view, the lap-dog yaps at the elephant in entire
unconsciousness of its strength and importance. It needs no more than to take
a good example to show the relative importance of both and the lap-dogs will
cease to yap and will wag their tails the moment they set eyes on an elephant.
3. In order to destroy the prestige of heroism for political
crime we shall send it for trial in the category of thieving, murder, and
every kind of abominable and filthy crime. Public opinion will then confuse in
its conception of this category of crime with the disgrace attaching to every
other and will brand it with the same contempt.
4. We have done our best, and I hope we have succeeded to
obtain that the GOYIM should not arrive at this means of contending with
sedition. It was for this reason that through the Press and in speeches,
indirectly - in cleverly compiled school- books on history, we have advertised
the martyrdom alleged to have been accredited by sedition-mongers for the idea
of the commonweal. This advertisement has increased the contingent of liberals
and has brought thousands of GOYIM into the ranks of our livestock cattle.
Index .
PROTOCOL No. 20
1. To-day we shall touch upon the financial program, which I
put off to the end of my report as being the most difficult, the crowning and
the decisive point of our plans. Before entering upon it I will remind you
that I have already spoken before by way of a hint when I said that the sum
total of our actions is settled by the question of figures.
2. When we come into our kingdom our autocratic government
will avoid, from a principle of self-preservation, sensibly burdening the
masses of the people with taxes, remembering that it plays the part of father
and protector. But as State organization cost dear it is necessary
nevertheless to obtain the funds required for it. It will, therefore,
elaborate with particular precaution the question of equilibrium in this
matter.
3. Our rule, in which the king will enjoy the legal fiction
that everything in his State belongs to him (which may easily be translated
into fact), will be enabled to resort to the lawful confiscation of all
sums of every kind for the regulation of their circulation in the State. From
this follows that taxation will best be covered by a progressive tax on
property. In this manner the dues will be paid without straitening or ruining
anybody in the form of a percentage of the amount of property. The rich must
be aware that it is their duty to place a part of their superfluities at the
disposal of the State since the State guarantees them security of possession
of the rest of their property and the right of honest gains, I say honest, for
the control over property will do away with robbery on a legal basis.
4. This social reform must come from above, for the time is
ripe for it - it is indispensable as a pledge of peace.
WE SHALL DESTROY CAPITAL
5. The tax upon the poor man is a seed of revolution and
works to the detriment of the State which is hunting after the trifling is
missing the big. Quite apart from this, a tax on capitalists diminishes the
growth of wealth in private hands in which we have in these days concentrated
it as a counterpoise to the government strength of the GOYIM - their State
finances.
6. A tax increasing in a percentage ratio to capital will
give much larger revenue than the present individual or property tax, which is
useful to us now for the sole reason that it excites trouble and discontent
among the GOYIM. (Now we know the purpose of the 16th Amendment!!).
7. The force upon which our king will rest consists in the
equilibrium and the guarantee of peace, for the sake of which things it is
indispensable that the capitalists should yield up a portion of their incomes
for the sake of the secure working of the machinery of the State. State needs
must be paid by those who will not feel the burden and have enough to take
from.
8. Such a measure will destroy the hatred of the poor man
for the rich, in whom he will see a necessary financial support for the State,
will see in him the organizer of peace and well-being since he will see that
it is the rich man who is paying the necessary means to attain these things.
9. In order that payers of the educated classes should not
too much distress themselves over the new payments they will have full
accounts given them of the destination of those payments, with the exception
of such sums as will be appropriated for the needs of the throne and the
administrative institutions.
10. He who reigns will not have any properties of his own
once all in the State represented his patrimony, or else the one would be in
contradiction to the other; the fact of holding private means would destroy
the right of property in the common possessions of all.
11. Relatives of him who reigns, his heirs excepted, who
will be maintained by the resources of the State, must enter the ranks of
servants of the State or must work to obtain the right to property; the
privilege of royal blood must not serve for the spoiling of the treasury.
12. Purchase, receipt of money or inheritance will be
subject to the payment of a stamp progressive tax. Any transfer of property,
whether money or other, without evidence of payment of this tax which will be
strictly registered by names, will render the former holder liable to pay
interest on the tax from the moment of transfer of these sums up to the
discovery of his evasion of declaration of the transfer. Transfer documents
must be presented weekly at the local treasury office with notifications of
the name, surname and permanent place of residence of the former and the new
holder of the property. This transfer with register of names must begin from a
definite sum which exceeds the ordinary expenses of buying and selling
necessaries, and these will be subject to payment only by a stamp impost of a
definite percentage of the unit.
13. Just strike an estimate of how many times such taxes as
these will cover the revenue of the GOYIM States.
WE CAUSE DEPRESSIONS
14. The State exchequer will have to maintain a definite
complement of reserve sums, and all that is collected above that complement
must be returned into circulation. On these sums will be organized public
works. The initiative in works of this kind, proceeding from State sources,
will blind the working class firmly to the interests of the State and to those
who reign. From these same sums also a part will be set aside as rewards of
inventiveness and productiveness.
15. On no account should so much as a single unit above the
definite and freely estimated sums be retained in the State Treasuries, for
money exists to be circulated and any kind of stagnation of money acts
ruinously on the running of the State machinery, for which it is the
lubricant; a stagnation of the lubricant may stop the regular working of the
mechanism.
16. The substitution of interest-bearing paper for a part of
the token of exchange has produced exactly this stagnation. The consequences
of this circumstance are already sufficiently noticeable.
17. A court of account will also be instituted by us, and in
it the ruler will find at any moment a full accounting for State income and
expenditure, with the exception of the current monthly account, not yet made
up, and that of the preceding month, which will not yet have been delivered.
18. The one and only person who will have no interest in
robbing the State is its owner, the ruler. This is why his personal control
will remove the possibility of leakages of extravagances.
19. The representative function of the ruler at receptions
for the sake of etiquette, which absorbs so much invaluable time, will be
abolished in order that the ruler may have time for control and consideration.
His power will not then be split up into fractional parts among time-serving
favorites who surround the throne for its pomp and splendor, and are
interested only in their own and not in the common interests of the State.
20. Economic crises have been producer by us for the GOYIM
by no other means than the withdrawal of money from circulation. Huge capitals
have stagnated, withdrawing money from States, which were constantly obliged
to apply to those same stagnant capitals for loans. These loans burdened the
finances of the State with the payment of interest and made them the bond
slaves of these capitals .... The concentration of industry in the hands of
capitalists out of the hands of small masters has drained away all the juices
of the peoples and with them also the States .... (Now we know the purpose
of the Federal Reserve Bank Corporation!!).
21. The present issue of money in general does not
correspond with the requirements per head, and cannot therefore satisfy all
the needs of the workers. The issue of money ought to correspond with the
growth of population and thereby children also must absolutely be reckoned as
consumers of currency from the day of their birth. The revision of issue is a
material question for the whole world.
22. YOU ARE AWARE THAT THE GOLD STANDARD HAS BEEN THE RUIN
OF THE STATES WHICH ADOPTED IT, FOR IT HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO SATISFY THE
DEMANDS FOR MONEY, THE MORE SO THAT WE HAVE REMOVED GOLD FROM CIRCULATION AS
FAR AS POSSIBLE.
GENTILE STATES BANKRUPT
23. With us the standard that must be introduced is the cost
of working-man power, whether it be reckoned in paper or in wood. We shall
make the issue of money in accordance with the normal requirements of each
subject, adding to the quantity with every birth and subtracting with every
death.
24. The accounts will be managed by each department (the
French administrative division), each circle.
25. In order that there may be no delays in the paying our
of money for State needs the sums and terms of such payments will be fixed by
decree of the ruler; this will do away with the protection by a ministry of
one institution to the detriment of others.
26. The budgets of income and expenditure will be carried
out side by side that they may not be obscured by distance one to another.
27. The reforms projected by us in the financial
institutions and principles of the GOYIM will be clothed by us in such forms
as will alarm nobody. We shall point out the necessity of reforms in
consequence of the disorderly darkness into which the GOYIM by their
irregularities have plunged the finances. The first irregularity, as we shall
point out, consists in their beginning with drawing up a single budget which
year after year grows owing to the following cause: this budget is dragged out
to half the year, then they demand a budget to put things right, and this they
expend in three months, after which they ask for a supplementary budget, and
all this ends with a liquidation budget. But, as the budget of the following
year is drawn up in accordance with the sum of the total addition, the annual
departure from the normal reaches as much as 50 per cent in a year, and so the
annual budget is trebled in ten years. Thanks to such methods, allowed by the
carelessness of the GOY States, their treasuries are empty. The period of
loans supervenes, and that has swallowed up remainders and brought all the GOY
States to bankruptcy. (The United States was declared "bankrupt"
at the Geneva Convention of 1929! [see 31 USC 5112, 5118, and 5119).
28. You understand perfectly that economic arrangements of
this kind, which have been suggested to the GOYIM by us, cannot be carried on
by us.
29. Every kind of loan proves infirmity in the State and a
want of understanding of the rights of the State. Loans hang like a sword of
Damocles over the heads of rulers, who, instead of taking from their subjects
by a temporary tax, come begging with outstretched palm of our bankers.
Foreign loans are leeches which there is no possibility of removing from the
body of the State until they fall off of themselves or the State flings them
off. But the GOY States do not tear them off; they go on in persisting in
putting more on to themselves so that they must inevitably perish, drained by
voluntary blood-letting.
TYRANNY OF USURY
30. What also indeed is, in substance, a loan, especially a
foreign loan? A loan is - an issue of government bills of exchange containing
a percentage obligation commensurate to the sum of the loan capital. If the
loan bears a charge of 5 per cent, then in twenty years the State vainly pays
away in interest a sum equal to the loan borrowed, in forty years it is paying
a double sum, in sixty - treble, and all the while the debt remains an unpaid
debt.
31. From this calculation it is obvious that with any form
of taxation per head the State is baling out the last coppers of the poor
taxpayers in order to settle accounts with wealth foreigners, from whom it has
borrowed money instead of collecting these coppers for its own needs without
the additional interest.
32. So long as loans were internal the GOYIM only shuffled
their money from the pockets of the poor to those of the rich, but when we
bought up the necessary person in order to transfer loans into the external
sphere, all the wealth of States flowed into our cash- boxes and all the GOYIM
began to pay us the tribute of subjects.
33. If the superficiality of GOY kings on their thrones in
regard to State affairs and the venality of ministers or the want of
understanding of financial matters on the part of other ruling persons have
made their countries debtors to our treasuries to amounts quite impossible to
pay it has not been accomplished without, on our part, heavy expenditure of
trouble and money.
34. Stagnation of money will not be allowed by us and
therefore there will be no State interest-bearing paper, except a one per-
cent series, so that there will be no payment of interest to leeches that suck
all the strength out of the State. The right to issue interest-bearing paper
will be given exclusively to industrial companies who will find no difficulty
in paying interest out of profits, whereas the State does not make interest on
borrowed money like these companies, for the State borrows to spend and not to
use in operations. (Now we know why President Kennedy was assassinated in
1963 when he refused to borrow any more of the "Bank Notes" from the
bankers of the Federal Reserve Bank and began circulating non-interest bearing
"Notes" of the "United States of America"!!!).
35. Industrial papers will be bought also by the government
which from being as now a paper of tribute by loan operations will be
transformed into a lender of money at a profit. This measure will stop the
stagnation of money, parasitic profits and idleness, all of which were useful
for us among the GOYIM so long as they were independent but are not desirable
under our rule.
36. How clear is the undeveloped power of thought of the
purely brute brains of the GOYIM, as expressed in the fact that they have been
borrowing from us with payment of interest without ever thinking that all the
same these very moneys plus an addition for payment of interest must be got by
them from their own State pockets in order to settle up with us. What could
have been simpler than to take the money they wanted from their own people?
37. But it is a proof of the genius of our chosen mind that
we have contrived to present the matter of loans to them in such a light that
they have even seen in them an advantage for themselves.
38. Our accounts, which we shall present when the time
comes, in the light of centuries of experience gained by experiments made by
us on the GOY States, will be distinguished by clearness and definiteness and
will show at a glance to all men the advantage of our innovations. They will
put an end to those abuses to which we owe our mastery over the GOYIM, but
which cannot be allowed in our kingdom.
39. We shall so hedge about our system of accounting that
neither the ruler nor the most insignificant public servant will be in a
position to divert even the smallest sum from its destination without
detection or to direct it in another direction except that which will be once
fixed in a definite plan of action. (Is this why a "private
corporation," known as the "Internal Revenue Service," is in
charge of collecting the "payments" of the "Income Taxes"
and the IRS always deposits those "payments" to the Federal Reserve
bank and never to the Treasury of the United States??).
40. And without a definite plan it is impossible to rule.
Marching along an undetermined road and with undetermined resources brings to
ruin by the way heroes and demi-gods.
41. The GOY rulers, whom we once upon a time advised should
be distracted from State occupations by representative receptions, observances
of etiquette, entertainments, were only screens for our rule. The accounts of
favorite courtiers who replaced them in the sphere of affairs were drawn up
for them by our agents, and every time gave satisfaction to short-sighted
minds by promises that in the future economics and improvements were foreseen
.... Economics from what? From new taxes? - were questions that might have
been but were not asked by those who read our accounts and projects.
42. You know to what they have been brought by this
carelessness, to what pitch of financial disorder they have arrived,
notwithstanding the astonishing industry of their peoples ....

PROTOCOL No. 21
1. To what I reported to you at the last meeting I shall now
add a detailed explanation of internal loans. Of foreign loans I shall say
nothing more, because they have fed us with national moneys of the GOYIM, but
for our State there will be no foreigners, that is, nothing external.
2. We have taken advantage of the venality of administrators
and slackness of rulers to get our moneys twice, thrice and more times over,
by lending to the GOY governments moneys which were not at all needed by the
States. Could anyone do the like in regard to us? .... Therefore, I shall only
deal with the details of internal loans.
3. States announce that such a loan is to be concluded and
open subscriptions for their own bills of exchange, that is, for their
interest-bearing paper. That they may be within the reach of all the price is
determined at from a hundred to a thousand; and a discount is made for the
earliest subscribers. Next day by artificial means the price of them goes up,
the alleged reason being that everyone is rushing to buy them. In a few days
the treasury safes are as they say overflowing and there's more money than
they can do with (why then take it?). The subscription, it is alleged,
covers many times over the issue total of the loan; in this lies the whole
stage effect - look you, they say, what confidence is shown in the
government's bills of exchange.
4. But when the comedy is played out there emerges the fact
that a debit and an exceedingly burdensome debit has been created. For the
payment of interest it becomes necessary to have recourse to new loans, which
do not swallow up but only add to the capital debt. And when this credit is
exhausted it becomes necessary by new taxes to cover, not the loan, BUT ONLY
THE INTEREST ON IT.
5. Later comes the time for conversions, but they diminish
the payment of interest without covering the debt, and besides they cannot be
made without the consent of the lenders; on announcing a conversion a proposal
is made to return the money to those who are not willing to convert their
paper. If everybody expressed his unwillingness and demanded his money back,
the government would be hooked on their own files and would be found insolvent
and unable to pay the proposed sums. By good luck the subjects of the GOY
governments, knowing nothing about financial affairs, have always preferred
losses on exchange and diminution of interest to the risk of new investments
of their moneys, and have thereby many a time enabled these governments to
throw off their shoulders a debit of several millions.
6. Nowadays, with external loans, these tricks cannot be
played by the GOYIM for they know that we shall demand all our moneys back.
7. In this way in acknowledged bankruptcy will best prove to
the various countries the absence of any means between the interest of the
peoples and of those who rule them.
8. I beg you to concentrate your particular attention upon
this point and upon the following: nowadays all internal loans are
consolidated by so-called flying loans, that is, such as have terms of payment
more or less near. These debts consist of moneys paid into the savings banks
and reserve funds. If left for long at the disposition of a government these
funds evaporate in the payment of interest on foreign loans, and are placed by
the deposit of equivalent amount of RENTS.
9. And these last it is which patch up all the leaks in the
State treasuries of the GOYIM.
10. When we ascend the throne of the world all these
financial and similar shifts, as being not in accord with our interests, will
be swept away so as not to leave a trace, as also will be destroyed all money
markets, since we shall not allow the prestige of our power to be shaken by
fluctuations of prices set upon our values, which we shall announce by law at
the price which represents their full worth without any possibility of
lowering or raising. (Raising gives the pretext for lowering, which indeed
was where we made a beginning in relation to the values of the GOYIM.)
11. We shall replace the money markets by grandiose
government credit institutions, the object of which will be to fix the price
of industrial values in accordance with government views. These institutions
will be in a position to fling upon the market five hundred millions of
industrial paper in one day, or to buy up for the same amount. In this way all
industrial undertakings will come into dependence upon us. You may imagine for
yourselves what immense power we shall thereby secure for ourselves ....

PROTOCOL No. 22
1 In all that has so far been reported by me to you, I have
endeavored to depict with care the secret of what is coming, of what is past,
and of what is going on now, rushing into the flood of the great events coming
already in the near future, the secret of our relations to the GOYIM and of
financial operations. On this subject there remains still a little for me to
add.
2. IN OUR HANDS IS THE GREATEST POWER OF OUR DAY - GOLD: IN
TWO DAYS WE CAN PROCURE FROM OUR STOREHOUSES ANY QUANTITY WE MAY PLEASE.
3. Surely there is no need to seek further proof that our
rule is predestined by God? Surely we shall not fail with such wealth to prove
that all that evil which for so many centuries we have had to commit has
served at the end of ends the cause of true well- being - the bringing of
everything into order? Though it be even by the exercise of some violence, yet
all the same it will be established. We shall contrive to prove that we are
benefactors who have restored to the rent and mangled earth the true good and
also freedom of the person, and therewith we shall enable it to be enjoyed in
peace and quiet, with proper dignity of relations, on the condition, of
course, of strict observance of the laws established by us. We shall make
plain therewith that freedom does not consist in dissipation and in the right
of unbridled license any more than the dignity and force of a man do not
consist in the right of everyone to promulgate destructive principles in the
nature of freedom of conscience, equality and a like, that freedom of the
person in no wise consists in the right to agitate oneself and others by
abominable speeches before disorderly mobs, and that true freedom consists in
the inviolability of the person who honorably and strictly observes all the
laws of life in common, that human dignity is wrapped up in consciousness of
the rights and also of the absence of rights of each, and not wholly and
solely in fantastic imaginings about the subject of one's EGO.
4. One authority will be glorious because it will be
all-powerful, will rule and guide, and not muddle along after leaders and
orators shrieking themselves hoarse with senseless words which they call great
principles and which are noting else, to speak honestly, but utopian .... Our
authority will be the crown of order, and in that is included the whole
happiness of man. The aureole of this authority will inspire a mystical bowing
of the knee before it and a reverent fear before it of all the peoples. True
force makes no terms with any right, not even with that of God: none dare come
near to it so as to take so much as a span from it away.

PROTOCOL No. 23
1. That the peoples may become accustomed to obedience it is
necessary to inculcate lessons of humility and therefore to reduce the
production of articles of luxury. By this we shall improve morals which have
been debased by emulation in the sphere of luxury. We shall re-establish small
master production which will mean laying a mine under the private capital of
manufactures. This is indispensable also for the reason that manufacturers on
the grand scale often move, though not always consciously, the thoughts of the
masses in directions against the government. A people of small masters knows
nothing of unemployment and this binds him closely with existing order, and
consequently with the firmness of authority. For us its part will have been
played out the moment authority is transferred into our hands. Drunkenness
also will be prohibited by law and punishable as a crime against humanness of
man who is turned into a brute under the influence of alcohol.
2. Subjects, I repeat once more, give blind obedience only
to the strong hand which is absolutely independent of them, for in it they
feel the sword of defense and support against social scourges .... What do
they want with an angelic spirit in a king? What they have to see in him is
the personification of force and power.
3. The supreme lord who will replace all now existing ruler,
dragging in their existence among societies demoralized by us, societies that
have denied even the authority of God, from whose midst breads out on all
sides the fire of anarchy, must first of all proceed to quench this
all-devouring flame. Therefore he will be obliged to kill off those existing
societies, though he should drench them with his own blood, that he may
resurrect them again in the form of regularly organized troops fighting
consciously with every kind of infection that may cover the body of the State
with sores.
4. This Chosen One of God is chosen from above to demolish
the senseless forces moved by instinct and not reason, by brutishness and
humanness. These forces now triumph in manifestations of robbery and every
kind of violence under the mask of principles of freedom and every kind of
violence under the mask of principles of freedom and rights. They have
overthrown all forms of social order to erect on the ruins of the throne of
the King of the Jews; but their part will be played out the moment he enters
into his kingdom. Then it will be necessary to sweep them away from his path,
on which must be left no knot, no splinter.
5. Then will it be possible for us to say to the peoples of
the world: Give thanks to God and bow the knee before him who bears on his
front the seal of the predestination of man, to which God himself has led his
star that none other but Him might free us from all the before-mentioned
forces and evils.

PROTOCOL No. 24
1. I pass now to the method of confirming the dynastic roots
of King David to the last strata of the earth.
2. This confirmation will first and foremost be included in
that which to this day has rested the force of conservatism by our learned
elders of the conduct of the affairs of the world, in the directing of the
education of thought of all humanity.
3. Certain members of the seed of David will prepare the
kings and their heirs, selecting not by right of heritage but by eminent
capacities, inducting them into the most secret mysteries of the political,
into schemes of government, but providing always that none may come to
knowledge of the secrets. The object of this mode of action is that all may
know that government cannot be entrusted to those who have not been inducted
into the secret places of its art ....
4. To these persons only will be taught the practical
application of the aforenamed plans by comparison of the experiences of many
centuries, all the observations on the politico-economic moves and social
sciences - in a word, all the spirit of laws which have been unshakably
established by nature herself for the regulation of the relations of humanity.
5. Direct heirs will often be set aside from ascending the
throne if in their time of training they exhibit frivolity, softness and other
qualities that are the ruin of authority, which render them incapable of
governing and in themselves dangerous for kingly office.
6. Only those who are unconditionally capable for firm, even
if it be to cruelty, direct rule will receive the reins of rule from our
learned elders.
7. In case of falling sick with weakness of will or other
form of incapacity. kings must by law hand over the reins of rule to new and
capable hands.
8. The king's plan of action for the current moment, and all
the more so for the future, will be unknown, even to those who are called his
closest counselors.
KING OF THE JEWS
9. Only the king and the three who stood sponsor for him
will know what is coming.
10. In the person of the king who with unbending will is
master of himself and of humanity all will discern as it were fate with its
mysterious ways. None will know what the king wishes to attain by his
dispositions, and therefore none will dare to stand across an unknown path.
11. It is understood that the brain reservoir of the king
must correspond in capacity to the plan of government it has to contain. It is
for this reason that he will ascend the throne not otherwise than after
examination of his mind by the aforesaid learned elders.
12. That the people may know and love their king, it is
indispensable for him to converse in the market-places with his people. This
ensures the necessary clinching of the two forces which are now divided one
from another by us by the terror.
13. This terror was indispensable for us till the time comes
for both these forces separately to fall under our influence.
14. The king of the Jews must not be at the mercy of his
passions, and especially of sensuality: on no side of his character must he
give brute instincts power over his mind. Sensuality worse than all else
disorganizes the capacities of the mind and clearness of views, distracting
the thoughts to the worst and most brutal side of human activity.
15. The prop of humanity in the person of the supreme lord
of all the world of the holy seed of David must sacrifice to his people all
personal inclinations.
16. Our supreme lord must be of an exemplary irreproachable.
Israel's former Ambassador to the United Nations, Dr. Dore
Gold, feels that the UN undermines international peace and security.

According to Jerusalem Summit
director, Dmitry Radyshevsky, the Council's focus will be to "provide a
venue for constructive engagement built on universal
ethical principles."
Radyshevsky believes that Jerusalem
is the logical place for the Council "since it's the only place that
commands the respect and awe of the majority of the world's nations and its
three major religions."
"We hope to restore Jerusalem's
status not only as a religious but as an intellectual center of the
world," he added.
Jer:6:14: They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
Summit academic
director, Dr. Martin Sherman, professor of Political Science at Tel Aviv
University, presented the most controversial idea of the conference.
Presenting the results of a poll commissioned by the Jerusalem
Summit but carried
out by the Palestinian Center for Public Opinion, Sherman told the audience
that 70 percent of Arabs surveyed said that they would emigrate if they were
offered one or more material inducements. A guarantee of a good job abroad,
high standard housing or substantial financial compensation were specified.
Additionally, 42 percent of those polled said they have considered emigrating
permanently.The survey of 528 adult interviewees was conducted between 15-21
November, 2004 in the West Bank and carries a statistical margin of error of
4.5 percent.
Sherman used the data to justify his thesis that political solutions to the
Arab-Israeli conflict have brought only suffering to both populations. Sherman
called for a redefinition of the Palestinian predicament in humanitarian
rather than political terms.
In a 20 page booklet printed and distributed by the Jerusalem
Summit, Sherman
argues that the humanitarian solution is to help Palestinians achieve a better
life by offering financial incentives to realize voluntary relocation in Arab
countries.
"The Palestinians arriving at their gates will not be impoverished
refugees, but relatively prosperous individuals with saving the equivalent of
decades of GNP per capita in their pockets," he writes.
Sherman predicts that for every hundred Palestinians a country absorbs, the
economy could count on an influx of around 10-15 million dollars into the
private sector.
The basis of Sherman's proposal rests on abandoning the approach of relating
to the Palestinians as a collective entity, and substituting a view of them as
"tragedy-stricken individuals" to address "the enduring
Palestinian humanitarian predicament," he urges.
The proposal, unlikely to get an airing at the UN, Radyshevsky acknowledges,
would likely be number one item on the agenda of the Council of Civilizations.

Excerpt -
A recent exhibit titled "Breaking the Silence,"
organized in Tel Aviv by a number of conscientious Israeli soldiers who
served in occupied Hebron, exposed in photographs and objects more serious
belligerence towards defenseless Palestinians. Inspired by Jewish settlers'
graffiti that included:
"Arabs to the gas chambers"
"Arabs = an inferior race"
"Spill Arab blood"
and, of course, the ever-so-popular "Death to the
Arabs"
(that IDF) soldiers used a myriad of methods to make the
lives of average Palestinians intolerable. One photograph showed a bumper
sticker on a passing car, perhaps explaining the ultimate goal of such
abuse: "Religious penitence provides strength to expel the Arabs."
The exhibit's main curator described a particularly
shocking policy of randomly spraying crowded Palestinian residential
neighborhoods, like Abu Sneina, from heavy machine guns and grenade
launchers for hours on end in response to any minor shooting of a few
bullets from any house in the neighborhood on the Jewish colonies inside the
city.

Over 50% Of Germans
Equate IDF With Nazi Army
By Etgar Lefkovits
International Jerusalem Post
12-8-4
Six decades after the mass extermination of six million
Jews in the Holocaust by Nazi (Nasi)
Germany, more than 50 percent of Germans believe that Israel's present-day
treatment of the Palestinians is similar to what the Nazis (Nasi's)
did to the Jews during World War II, a German survey released this weekend
shows.
51 percent of respondents said that there is not much of
a difference between what Israel is doing to the Palestinians today and
what the Nazis did to the Jews during the Holocaust, compared to 49% who
disagreed with such a comparison, according to the poll carried out by
Germany's University of Bielefeld.
The survey also found that 68 percent of Germans believe
that Israel is waging a "war of
extermination" against the Palestinians, while some 32%
disagreed with such a statement.
watch them turn the page quickly, with...of
course....anti-Shem-atism
In a first reaction, the chairman of Yad Vashem's
directorate Avner Shalev said Tuesday that the poll's results, which he
termed "very worrisome," were indicative of a long-suppressed
felling of anti-Semitism among the mainstream "so-called
liberals" population which now, under the coating of anti-Israeli
criticism, are becoming legitimate again. He added that the poll's
results, which he said any objective person would repudiate, are also the
result of the release of pent-up feelings of guilt built up from the
Holocaust.
"The energies which bring about such answers come to
protect feelings of guilt," Shalev said. 62 percent of respondents in
the poll said that they were sick of "all this harping" of
German crimes against Jews, while 68% said that they found it
"annoying" that Germans today are still held to blame for Nazi
crimes against Jews.
Because they know the Talmudic jews were the
"Nasi's"
The survey, which aimed to determine what is "the
cut off point" between criticism of Israel and anti-Semitism, finds
that while "classical" anti-Semitism in Germany is on the wane,
secondary anti-Semitism, often couched in anti-Israel views are on the
rise, especially among the Left.
hahahhahha any who oppose their
shemsham hoodlum haha are anti-Shems
The German researchers who conducted the polls conceded
that the results showing a majority of Germans equating Israel's Policy
with Nazi Atrocities "may be worrying," but concurred with Yad
Vashem's Shalev that the media coverage of the Israeli-Palestinians
conflict has made such analogies part of the public discourse.
"When you see an image in the newspaper, in a
caricature, which is repeated day in and day out that Sharon is equal to
Hitler than the image catches in your head because maybe you do not like
Jews so much or maybe you hate Jews, and than this works out
excellent," Shalev said, stressing that
education of the young generation was the key to stemming such a tide.
Education Day Germany
In the survey, 82 percent of the respondents polled said
that they are angered by the way Israel is treating the Palestinians,
while 45 percent of those polled said that considering Israel's policies
it was "no surprise" that people were against them.
The telephone poll of 3000 "non-migrant"
respondents, which was taken in May and June, did not come with a margin
of error.
"This is a very sad commentary about what is
happening in Europe today which needs to send a very strong warning signal
about how much work needed to be done to deal with these attitudes,"
said, Dr. Ephraim Zuroff, the Israel director of the Los Angeles-based
Simon Wiesenthal Center.
BUT OF COURSE, the weasel
Due in part to its blighted history, Germany is generally
considered to be one of the more supportive countries of Israel in Europe.
At approximately 3:30pm today, Ron Paul's
press secretary Jeff Deist called Alex Jones to warn him that the legislation
that encompasses the national ID card and Patriot Act 2
provisions was on the verge of passing the House tonight.
Deist stated that the bill and what it means
for America could be described in a word as
'tyranny'.
You asked for
it....you got it, and it ain't toyota
Deist's tone was the most concerned that Alex
had ever known in his years of communication with Ron Paul's office. Alex made
it clear how upset Desit was and that the situation reminded him of a 'war
room atmosphere'. Deist and Ron Paul are desperate to mobilize the alternative
media before the bill reaches the Senate tomorrow.
There is still a chance that we can shoot
down the national ID card provisions before the bill is passed in full.
Deist went on to exclaim his disbelief at how
the so-called conservative Bush administration had
betrayed America and how Paul's colleagues on Capitol Hill were blindly
going along with this and doing whatever Bush tells them to do without
question.
For the past two days mainstream news
articles have talked of a 'compromise' which was made with the few dissenting
voices and that the bill would be steamrolled through.
However, those articles fail to mention the
very worst aspects of the bill, instead pitching it as a mere reformation of
intelligence communication and protocol.
PLEASE CALL YOUR LOCAL CONGRESSIONAL OFFICE
RIGHT NOW AND VOICE YOUR OPPOSITION TO THIS BILL.
The bill is S 2845 or 'intelligence reform'
and the sub-section with the national ID card provisions is 7212.
Tell your congressman to get the federal
mandates for standardized drivers licenses out of the bill.
According to Deist, the bill would not only
introduce the national ID card, but make it mandatory to have a job as well as
setting up internal checkpoints in the USA.

"Amaraka" they pulled off
their Coup , with your very own apostate help, in the name of your Judaeo god
Yaweh who is not Jesus the Christ the Iamhe
Strip-Searched
By Marilyn A. Guinnane
12-7-4
"And if I refuse to strip?" I asked the two
women in the little room.
"You'll be held down and your clothes will be
removed from you forcibly," one answered.
This was in U.S. Customs (in this fine free country of
ours) back in the seventies. Our entire airline crew was chosen to, one by
one, go into these small rooms, the men with male Customs agents, the
women with women. Of course it's horribly debasing to be subjected to such
treatment and it was a rude surprise as we had no advance clue. After the
contents of a suitcase was thoroughly inspected, you were quietly asked
to, "Follow me, please."
I was the second or third victim, and I was spitting
tacks once the door was shut and I was ordered to strip. "What
for?" I demanded. "What did I do?"
"Just take off your clothes."
So I wadded up my uniform and threw it with vehemence
onto the floor. At least they would have to pick the damn thing up.
"Now your bra and pantyhose," one of them said.
Again, wadded and thrown. Of Irish descent, I do have a temper and let me
tell you, I was losing it.
They each felt my garments, squeezing every square inch
for all the smuggled rubies and hash-hish that weren't there. "I
wouldn't do this to anybody," I glowered. "Sleep well at
night?"
As I exited the room after this unforgivable ordeal, I
bellowed at the rest of the crew, a line of innocents about to be grossly
humiliated, "You guys! They're making us strip!"
A male Customs official, who was standing back,
observing, answered, "You shut up, pick up your bags, and get the
hell out of here!"
"Oh now you're trying to strip my freedom of speech,
too!" I retorted hotly. But I did grab my bags and head for the crew
bus, fuming all the way. Nor did I calm down as the rest of the crew
climbed on board, each shaken and abnormally quiet. We were at Travis AFB,
having just worked a military flight in from Yokota, Japan, a grueling
long flight. Even so, we were to be limo'd, in airline jargon, to our home
base in Oakland, CA, a couple hours drive. Having been out on the line two
weeks we were finally going HOME! Spirits should have been high, and would
have been, had we not just had a taste of 'freedom in America' flung in
our faces.
Did Customs in other countries behave in such an
abominable manner? Never in my experience. I flew eight years for a
charter, a non-sked to use a term popular back then, and we went
everywhere. I've been to places a whole lot of people have never even
heard of, as well as all over Europe, Hong Kong, Okinawa, Japan as
mentioned, Korea, various countries in South America as well as Africa,
and always had been treated courteously. Only in the U.S. do Customs
agents regularly go overboard, and now, what do you know, passengers are
being given similar treatment, pre-boarding, that we received at that
military base!
Jim Hawley, our captain, seated himself directly in front
of me on the crew bus. We were a couple of miles out of Travis before he
half turned and spoke. I was instantly ready with a comeback, as I
believed he was about to castigate me for being so vociferously out of
line back in Customs.
"This happened to me before," he began softly,
surprising me. "One of the flight attendants didn't declare a
diamond, and Customs found it."
Jim was one of my favorite captains. "A full blooded
Sioux Indian," was how he described himself. Once he took me to
dinner to a posh restaurant. No strings; he wanted company was all. He
used to get such a kick out of my gutsy big mouth. "You're the type
who'd pass gas in church," he chuckled at dinner that time.
"So they took me, the captain, to set an example.
'Here's what happens when your crew messes with Customs,' right? I had to
disrobe and a doctor was brought in, a regular Nazi. He told me to bend
over. So I tried to protest and he told me to shut-up or he wouldn't use
lubricant."
I told him that that was inexcusable. "I hate their
guts."
Determined not to let the incident rest, at home I penned
a letter to Congressman Clem Miller, whom I'd worked hard as a volunteer
to elect. I figured he owed me an investigation with regard to this
abomination our crew had had to endure.
He must've figured he owed me an investigation, as well,
because what he reported back should shock and anger you at once. Turns
out it was a training exercise for "new hire" customs agents.
That's all. We weren't suspected of smuggling, nothing nor no one had
tipped them off.
I'm wondering now, in light of what's been brought to the
fore that has happened to innocent passengers, if a secret camera filmed
us. After all, the two women in the room were young and unsure of
themselves; no supervisor was present. How could they pass their hands-on
exam unless we were in fact filmed, for scrutiny later? Perhaps they even
found the film useful in training other new hires. After all, they chose
an airline crew; young women, all with great figures. Standing there in
the altogether, the dirty so and sos.
"U.S. Customs can do as it likes," Congressman
Miller wrote. "It needs to be monitored but it isn't." He added
that he wanted to affect change, but since he died a short while later,
well.
So, has anything ever changed? Nope. They can still do to
you whatever they like. They can rip apart your suitcase with knives and
never offer a dime recompense. They can stick instruments up your rectum,
as they did to Captain Hawley, or up a woman's vagina. You are at their
complete mercy. Think about that next time you travel and prepare to
re-enter this glorious country.

Hate
groups discredit legitimate criticism of Israeli foreign policy
We
Stand On Guard
White
supremacist, Christian Identity, KKK, neo-Nazi, and fanatical Islamic groups
are aiding Zionism (world government).
Any
legitimate criticism of Israeli Foreign policy, which is committing mass
genocide against the Arab world and destroying United States sovereignty, is
conveniently labeled as "anti-Semitic," "neo-Nazi," or
"fanatical-Islamic," hate.
The
members of these hate groups are actually helping Zionism deflect any
legitimate opposition and criticism. It is a carefully crafted smear tactic
that the Zionist world elite have been plotting since at least the early
1900's when the devised a way to get the Fundamental Christians, who were at
the time considered 'anti-Semitic' by the Jewish community, to accept and
support world Zionism and the establishing of a dictatorial, judicial, One
World Government based out of Israel.
The
Zionists realized that they could not kill off Christianity through mass
genocide, as they attempted to do with the onslaught of 67 million Russians
during the Zionist led Bolshevik-Marxist takeover of Russia in 1917. No, they
had to infiltrate Christianity and pervert it from within in order to get the
strongly opposed Orthodox Christians to go along with Judeo-Masonic World
Government.
Cyrus
Scofield, Margaret MacDonald, John Darby, and Sam Untermeyer, were the willing
Zionist lackeys to carry out this infiltration and hi-jacking of Christianity.
The tactic used was Premillenial-Dispensationalism, a pseudo-prophetical view,
alien to the early church fathers and any historical Christian doctrine. This
doctrine was to get the Christians to believe that Israel as a nation (1948)
was fulfillment of God regathering His "chosen" for the final battle
of Armageddon. This is the Zionists faking of bible prophecy and playing God
in order to get those pesky "anti-Semitic" fundamental Christians to
support the fleshly Zionist Kingdom, which Jesus warned and condemned the
fanatical zealots for.
Remember
that in the times of Jesus' earthly ministry, some of the Jews who rejected
Jesus, did so because they wanted a militaristic leader that would deliver
them from the clutches of the Roman occupation? (Moshiach)
Is not the very same blindness occurring as we speak? Think about it, the
Zionist Christians and Jews expect the Messiah to come, deliver the nation of
Israel from its "Arabic oppressors," and set up a fleshly Messianic
kingdom, through a re-built temple, and restored animal sacrifices. It is very
obvious that the same mistake will befall Christian Zionists and Jews
alike.
The
average person who has heard the smear tactics all their life, will not
critically examine an argument which is against Israeli Foreign Policy, but
they will automatically go into thoughtless double-think. When they hear
that magical smear "anti-Semite," "Nazi," "fanatical
Muslim," they immediately discredit and demonize the person who is trying
to show the legitimate arguments against what Israel is doing in the world,
and that person's argument will never be given a valid and critical
consideration.
It
is a psychological dumbing-down process that is occuring in these naive and
gullible people. The Zionist elite have smart agenteurs and provocateurs
working for them. They have some of the best scientists and psychologists
advising them on how to manipulate the masses. All you have to do in order to
demonize someone, is invent a clever and catchy trendy word like (anti-semite),
throw a meaning behind it, and there is your full proof walk to world
government.
Of
course there is a way to combat these psy-op terms and ideologies. Counter
with equally trendy and catchy terms to neutralize their terms. When a zionist
lackey trys to silence legitimate opposition of Israeli Foreign Policy, that
lackey needs to be called what he is, an "anti-Gentilist."
There
are speculations that the Zionist provocateurs, Mossad/CIA intelligence
groups, founded and currently run these White Supremacist hate groups. Of
course, it's the old Hegelian dialectic, problem-reaction-solution paradigm at
work in America. The Christian identity crowd, White Supremacists, fanatical-Islamics,

George Bushkevik and
the Noahide laws, speech to AIPAC
Perhaps the deepest obstacle to peace is found in the hearts
of men and women. The Jewish people have seen, over the years and over the
centuries, that hate prepares the way for violence.
The refusal to expose and confront intolerance can
lead to crimes beyond imagining. So we have a duty to expose and confront
anti-Semitism, wherever it is found.
Some of you attended a very important event in Berlin
last month, the International Conference on
Anti-Semitism. You understand that anti-Semitism is not a problem of
the past; the hatred of Jews did not die in a Berlin bunker. In its cruder
forms, it can be found in some Arab media, and this government will continue to
call upon Arab governments to end libels and incitements. Such hatred can also
take subtler forms. The demonization of Israel, the
most extreme anti-Zionist rhetoric can be a flimsy cover for anti-Semitism,
and contribute to an atmosphere of fear in
which synagogues are desecrated, people are slandered, folks are threatened. I
will continue to call upon our friends in Europe to renounce and fight any sign
of anti-Semitism in their midst.

The Treason continues
An Israeli Hawk Accepts the President's Invitation
By Dana Milbank
Tuesday, November 23, 2004; Page A27
Those looking for clues about President Bush's second-term policy for the
Middle East might be interested to know that, nine days after his
reelection victory, the president summoned to the White House an Israeli
politician so hawkish that he has accused Ariel Sharon of being soft on
the Palestinians.
Bush met for more than an hour on Nov. 11 with Natan
Sharansky, the former Soviet dissident now known as a far-right
member of the Israeli cabinet. Joined by Chief of
Staff Andrew H. Card Jr., incoming national security adviser Stephen
J. Hadley and administration Mideast specialist Elliot Abrams, Bush
told Sharansky that he was reading the Israeli's new book, "The Case
for Democracy," (ALL ABOUT COMMUNITARIAN
NOAHIDISM) and wanted to know more. Sharansky, with co-author Ron
Dermer, had a separate meeting with Condoleezza Rice, later chosen by Bush
to be the next secretary of state.

in 1986. (Markus Schreiber -- AP)
Sharansky made waves this spring when he rallied with Jewish settlers to
oppose the Likud prime minister's plan for a unilateral pullout from Gaza
-- a plan that Bush had endorsed.
But Bush is being Educated now by the Zionist
Chabad Lubavitch who appointed him in 2000
Sharansky, head of a Russian immigrant
political party, said Sharon's plan, though supported by a number of Likud
hard-liners, would be "encouraging more terror."
Their "Terror" of Noahide
A figure who
has previously railed against the "illusions of Oslo" and
described that famous accord as "one-sided concessions,"
Sharansky resigned in 2000 from Ehud Barak's government over the Labor
prime minister's plan to attend a peace summit in Washington.
the hasidim who assassinated Rabin
"He's been suffering in the political wilderness in Israel with these
ideas for some time," Dermer said of his co-author. But when it came
to Bush, Dermer said, "I didn't see a lot of daylight between
them."
But a whole lot of Illumination going on
Sharansky's ideas are clear: no concessions, funds or legitimacy for the
Palestinians unless they adopt democracy,(NOAHIDISM)
but a modern-day Marshall Plan
for the Palestinians if they embrace democratic ways. The same hard line
that worked for Ronald Reagan against the Soviet Union, Sharansky argues
in his book, would work for Israel against the Palestinians.
In his book, Sharansky echoes many of Bush's favorite lines, talking of
the need for "moral clarity" in fighting evil.
HAHAHAHHAA DECAPITATION Clarity for his shems
Likening the
fight against terrorism to the struggle with Nazism and communism, he
described a world "divided between those who are prepared to confront
evil and those who are willing to appease it" -- a common Bush
dichotomy. "I am convinced that all peoples desire to be free,"
Sharansky writes.
Freed by Satan's Talmudic Perverted snare...Not
even close to Hardly
"I am convinced that freedom anywhere will make the
world safer everywhere. And I am convinced that democratic nations, led by
the United States, have a critical role to play in expanding freedom
around the globe."
Noahide Demonicrazy of the talmudic US enslaved
by the "master race"
Just as Bush justifies the Iraq war by talking of it as a catalyst for
democratization in the Middle East, Sharansky argues that while dictators
keep power by spreading fear and hatred, democracies are inherently
peaceful.
and By peace Destroy wonderfully
"When a free people governs itself, the chances of a war
being fought against other free peoples is removed almost entirely,"
he writes.
For we will turn the nations at our disposal
against any who oppose us "Protocols"
Sharansky had previously met with Rice and Vice President Cheney, but
Dermer said this was his first meeting with Bush as president. Still, the
book is flattering of Bush's leadership.
hahahhahhaha King of the Noahides and many cling
to him in flatteries
While accusing then-President
Jimmy Carter, who championed Sharansky's cause during his Gulag days, of
having "blind sympathy" and "trust for dictators," the
Israeli praised a Bush speech on the Middle East as "almost too good
to be true," saying: "President Bush turned his back on Yasser
Arafat's dictatorship once and for all." As previously noted in this
space, that Bush speech lifted many of Sharansky's ideas.
Noahidism of the collective Shem Bog of Dan the
serpent of the North
Sharansky's publisher, Peter Osnos of Public Affairs, gave galleys of the
book to Tom Bernstein, a former partner of Bush in the Texas Rangers, who
forwarded the galleys to the president. A few weeks later, Sharansky got
his White House invitation. The warmth for the dissident is nothing new:
Sharansky, who spent nine years in Soviet prisons before Reagan secured
his release, has long been a cause celebre for the administration's
neoconservative hard-liners.
Jews of Talmud Bavli
Dermer points out that Sharansky is different from other Israeli hawks
because he is willing to engage the Palestinians in talks and give them
land under certain conditions. Arafat's death, which
came just before the
Bush-Sharansky meeting, and the approaching Palestinian elections could
provide those conditions. "This creates an opportunity," Dermer
said, but he warned that his co-author "is somebody who constantly
lowers expectations" -- yet another thing the dissident and the
president have in common.
R does not stand for "revealing."
"REVEALING the Moshiach ben satan
"Alberto R. Gonzales -- the White House declined to release his
middle name, saying that Mr. Gonzales prefers the initial -- was born on
Aug. 4, 1955." -- From a profile of the secretive attorney general
nominee in the New York Times, Nov. 11.
Goldberg? Rich stein?
Gonzales's marriage, divorce, real estate, professional, voter and driver
records and his Air Force Academy yearbook all list his middle name only
as "R."

The comedian said he was worried
about freedom of speech
David Blunkett has told MPs a new law targeting "incitement to religious
hatred" will not curtail free speech.
He said the measure "will not criminalise material just because it
stirs up ridicule, prejudice, dislike, contempt or anger".
The plans have come under fire from comedian Rowan Atkinson who is worried
that the powers will stop him telling jokes and satirising people's beliefs.
The Tories (Neocons of Talmud) oppose the plan
and the Lib Dems have "serious doubts" over it.
Opposition
Mr Blunkett told MPs it was to protect people who "feel
threatened ... and feel society is not embracing them".
hey what about us the saints who are to be purged
from the Hoodlum hoo haha?
He said: "We are trying to stop groups of people who are prepared
verbally, in writing and through the internet, to incite others to hate
because of someone's faith not because of the argument about their
faith."
ahahhahha slick serpent he is
He added that it would not stop people from making jokes about religion.
their was a rib-eye and a Catholico's..........
But Tory spokesman David Davis said his party would seek to remove the
section on incitement to religious hatred from the bill.
'Unacceptable'
He said the plans if implemented would be "profound and wide-reaching,
and not necessarily that intended".
"The danger is that this legislation will curb freedom of speech
without any benefit being realised from the legislation," said Mr Davis.
For the Lib Dems, David Heath said it was "absolutely
unacceptable" for anyone to promote hatred against any group of people
because of their religion which, he added, was "often a cipher for racial
hatred in another form".
ahahahhahhaha, they call Life Hatred and Death Love
"But that doesn't stop me having serious doubts about the form the
government has chosen to bring forward this legislation."
Inappropriate?
On Monday, Blackadder star Rowan Atkinson launched a comedians' campaign
against the plan.
The Mr Bean actor says it is "wholly inappropriate" and could
stifle freedom of speech.
Speaking at Westminster, Mr Atkinson was backed by a group of writers, MPs
and the National Secular Society.
They oppose part of the bill which will create a new offence of incitement
to religious hatred to protect faith groups, particularly Muslims, from
attack.
There are already enough laws to deal with such extremists, they say.
Conflict?
Mr Atkinson told a meeting at the House of Commons on Monday night there
are "quite a few sketches" he has performed which would come into
conflict with the proposed law.
He added: "To criticise a person for their race is manifestly
irrational and ridiculous but to criticise their religion, that is a right.
That is a freedom.
"The freedom to criticise ideas, any ideas - even if they are
sincerely held beliefs - is one of the fundamental freedoms of society.
But not the shemgods....Oooh Nooooo
"A law which attempts to say you can criticise and ridicule ideas as
long as they are not religious ideas is a very peculiar law indeed."
Comedians are worried about freedom of speech
He said he had sympathy with the law's backers, particular British Muslims,
but added: "I appreciate this measure is an attempt to provide comfort
and protection to them.
"But unfortunately it is wholly inappropriate response far more likely
to promote tension between communities than tolerance."
Other parts of the bill would put on a formal basis the practice of giving
lighter sentences to offenders who give evidence against accomplices.
One witness and one Judge by False witness
And there would be a new law to stop trespassing on specified royal and
government property - a response to the "comedy terrorist" who
managed to get into Prince William's birthday party at Windsor Castle last
year.
