Undermining the Children:Africom, Joseph Kony, and Rare Earth Minerals
Something Smells Very Foul in Africa: Museveni, Kony and Rare Earth Minerals
Joseph Kony is a bad man. He gives children guns and forces them to fight and die for his material wants. This is not an argued point (whether or not Kony is still alive IS an argued point, however).
Yoweri Museveni, however, has been the Ugandan problem for over thirty years. He is President-for-Life, newly re-elected amid voting scandal and violence. He has been a long-time ally of Western Power, but in the last year has urged African nations to deal with Chinese energy and contracts. How has he stayed in power long enough to achieve all of this, while an evil army tramps around his country for decades?
1985: Museveni is a general in the National Resistance Army, struggling against the despotic dictatorship of one Obote II. The conflict was bloody, hard-fought, and indiscriminate. It can be deduced that conscription and hunger are two things Museveni had extensive experiences with.
1989: Amnesty International publishes a report citing the hundreds of thousands of people taken from their homes and executed with no charge or trial, the burning of granaries, and even systematic torture.
Remember that great movie Hotel Rwanda about the horrible genocide that Don Cheadle stands up to? Would you believe Museveni is implicated in the coup that started a racial conflict that led to nearly a million dead Rwandans, based on their appearance, "tutsi" or "Hutu". The entire conflict (and Cheadle's Oscar)
In 1998 Museveni, cooperating with the Rwandan (Tutsi ) junta he had helped implace ordered the invasion of northern Congo. False information was used to create the threat of a rampaging army in western Uganda, and for several YEARS Ugandad and Rwandan forces raped, pillaged, and burned through the Congo. The United States under Clinton, in 2000 suspended foreign aid to Museveni's government. Soon after, Ugandan and Rwandan forces began firing on one another, and all hell broke loose.
In her memoir Child Soldiers, China Keitetsi tells her story as an 8 year old girl forced into service in the NRA. She tells of being raped repeatedly, bearing two children by her superior officers, before escaping the country entirely.
Things got so bad, in 2005, the International Court of Justice ruled Uganda had to pay Congo back for its human rights violations. When an International Court makes any ruling, you know some big financial names are involved.
Museveni has a long, documented history of war crimes, yet has remained in power. He has known and has used hunger, fear and intimidation, and factionalist propaganda (like Kony2012) to justify and legitimize his actions in a very western way. He has a dirty history and a wake almost certainly filled with child warriors and senseless death.
Joseph Kony and the LRA only exist for the grace of Western Powers. Hunger and poverty are small problems compared to a boogeyman occupying your rural parts.
See this article.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-15255357 "Where Child Sacrifice is a Business".
Before Invisible Children's ill-fated attempt to propagandize a just invasion of Africa, the world knew Uganda's children have been in trouble. Under Museveni, child sacrifice has become an institutionally backed, culturally inescapable fact. Just part of life.
The LRA, which presents a christian front, claims to be against the practices of child sacrifice for blessings. The practice has obviously been unhindered by Joseph Kony's conscription techniques. In 2012 Ugandan officials estimated 200 combatants in the group, which has supposedly displaced and forced into combat over 10,000 children. These two statistics do not add up.
Or maybe shadowy officials/agents pay small town witch doctors to sacrifice children so that Kony won't have any soldiers? because that makes sense.
Population control is a business, and we must see Joseph Kony for what he is; a poster boy, not even an entrepreneur. OR WAS, as he hasn't been seen in years.
Spend a little on weapons, bribes, media support, and watch a hundred thousand mouths cease to need feeding. 37th in population, 89th in size; Uganda has a slightly lower population than Canada, in a state smaller than Ecuador. Why feed the natives when you can stir up a little warfare?
Child armies help Museveni, and we are discovering how they help Western Powers. OUR leaders are the people who propagate these atrocities, in the name of financial and material improvement, and sell it to you as (increasingly childish) propaganda.
Several months before the western-backed overthrow of Libyan dictator Gaddafi, the autocrat had posed in for nice pictures with Obama and Hilary Clinton. Of course he had a famously close relationship with Bush's regime, and Condaleeza Rice in particular. Then, inside a year, he is ousted and brutally, shamefully murdered for the world to televise. What happened?
China happened. Gaddafi signed a deal to sell tens of billions of dollars of oil and mining rights to China. Africa is a veritable diamond mine of stripmining, hydrafracking and employment opportunity. Rare earth minerals to keep producing advanced tablets and phones. Energy to keep the lights on and the HVAC running. Contracts for countries to be able to put people to work with. All things the United States is willing to kill for, and already has.
Always looking for economic growth, Museveni recently (http://allafrica.com/stories/201004290635.html )
became a supporter of Chinese economic power himself, citing the high cost of American energy.
And in short order Invisible Children, a reputable production company, comes out with Kony2012. The video is an obvious reach directly to the children of the United States, employing psychological warfare as if children are the individuals who must be sold on war. Except as we can now see, the entire region of Central and East Africa is and for hundreds of years has been a political spiderweb laced with explosive tripwires.
Only days after kony 2012 supposedly hit upwards of 90 million views (yeah, right) a resolution was introduced into Congress condemning Kony and citing the need for military action to prevent him from damaging United States interests in the region. The resolution cites nearly 500,000 displaced persons, 2400 wrongful deaths, and abduction of 3500 children. These numbers, while completely inconsistent with Invisible Children's account, as well as the official Ugandan account, still pale in comparison to the rap sheet Museveni has accrued.
The United States is actively engaged in a decade long cold war against the Red East, and Uganda is being staked out as the next line in the sand. The Libyan overthrow shows us that the West cares nothing for genocide or which individual is in charge, so long as that individual can be bought off. Selling us an invasion of Uganda:
a)supports or swells the cosmically high military spending level
b) allows for American construction, mining, agricultural, security, and of course oil companies to secure contracts in the region, effectively eradicating anyone who might deal with the Red East
All while doing nothing to ensure the safety or reform necessary at home to continue functioning as a country.
War is not peace.
The Media does not tell us the news. They tell us the story.
E.N.D. WAR

Obama Prepares for Martial Law
The White House
Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release
March 16, 2012
Executive Order -- National Defense Resources Preparedness
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I. The Power Grab
An executive order given by the President of the United States on March 16th 2012 has begun the immediate implementation of a "National Defense Resources Preparedness Committee" organization. This act clearly does not distinguish wartime from peacetime, essentially allowing for socialization and complete Administrative takeover of all economic and industrial systems at the anytime interest of national security AND SUPERIORITY. The President's appointed Cabinet now has more power and responsibility than any elected official.
Wheras:
Sec. 102. Policy. The United States must have an industrial and technological base capable of meeting national defense requirements and capable of contributing to the technological superiority of its national defense equipment in peacetime and in times of national emergency. The domestic industrial and technological base is the foundation for national defense preparedness. The authorities provided in the Act shall be used to strengthen this base."In order to:
103(c) be prepared, in the event of a potential threat to the security of the United States, to take actions necessary to ensure the availability of adequate resources and production capability, including services and critical technology, for national defense requirements;and:
(d) improve the efficiency and responsiveness of the domestic industrial base to support national defense requirementsII. 'functions'
Under Executive Order: National Defense Resource Preparedness,
a) each Cabinet Departnemt will have immediate loans and funds made available to them so that;
b) In the name of the government, a Secretary of ______ can then buy sell or trade with any corporation or country they deem necessary (for national defense, and in some places, for the maintenance of American technological and economic supremacy)
c) any specified and sanctioned corporations dealing with the state will have access to special reserves of funds, and seemingly be able to set their own rate of interest etc, ALL to be paid back to the Federal Reserve bank (which is in no way affiliated with the government, department of treasury or office of the President. so we are told)
Each Department shall:
"plan for and issue regulations to prioritize and allocate resources and establish standards and procedures by which the authority shall be used to promote the national defense, under both emergency and non-emergency conditions"
This is how the new Executive Order prioritizes 'functions' of state departments:
"to allocate materials, services, and facilities as deemed necessary or appropriate to promote the national defense",
All in the name of National Defense (which is redifined to mean American "superiority" in article 102:Policy)(1) the Secretary of Agriculture with respect to food resources, food resource facilities, livestock resources, veterinary resources, plant health resources, and the domestic distribution of farm equipment and commercial fertilizer;(2) the Secretary of Energy with respect to all forms of energy;(3) the Secretary of Health and Human Services with respect to health resources;(4) the Secretary of Transportation with respect to all forms of civil transportation;(5) the Secretary of Defense with respect to water resources; and(6) the Secretary of Commerce with respect to all other materials, services, and facilities, including construction materials.
Continue reading to discover the unprecedented and limitless scope of these 'functions'
III. Every Aspect Of Your Life
A. According to the old Act (The Defense Production Act of 1950, subsection 2071(a) ) emergency powers CANNOT be used to:
"control the general distribution of any material in the civilian market unless the President finds (1) that such material is a scarce and critical material essential to the national defense, and (2) that the requirements of the national defense for such material cannot otherwise be met without creating a significant dislocation of the normal distribution of such material in the civilian market to such a degree as to create appreciable hardship."NOW,
In the Executive Order, Sec. 201(e) states that given appropriate Presidential Approval, every Head of Cabinet has the power "to control the general distribution of any material (including applicable services) in the civilian market." This essentially gives the state full control over the 'free market', makes it possible to manipulate commodity and resource prices, and makes it a responsibility of each department to regularly report how this manipulation (or INVESTMENT) can be guided by intelligence gathered, also ordered by the act. This act essentially makes cabinet members legal inside traders, able to inflate or deflate prices at their will, for personal profit as well as national security.
Sec. 307. Substitutes. The head of each agency ... is delegated the authority of the President ...to make provision for the development of substitutes for strategic and critical materials, critical components, critical technology items, and other resources to aid the national defenseEach Secretary is now a private contractor, doling out emergency funds to corporations producing needed technologies , as well as maybe even just taking what they say they need. Your gas. Your cash. Your personal computer/smartphone. your credit cards. your television. all of these things may have precious metals that by law are now not legally yours.
B. Here's a surprising one: The Department of Defense shall control all water resources:
(n) "Water resources" means all usable water, from all sources, within the jurisdiction of the United States, that can be managed, controlled, and allocated to meet emergency requirements, except "water resources" does not include usable water that qualifies as "food resources."Drinking water from Lake Michigan could soon be illegal. public ownership/use/access of any water source is in danger of being restricted, protected, and socialized for interests of promoting our own contracts over others.
CONNECT TO THIS FACT: !!Biological Weapons and Chemical Warfare!!
;The Act of 1950 states that "No provision of title I of this Act (of 1950) shall be exercised or interpreted to require action or compliance by any private person to assist in any way in the production of or other involvement in chemical or biological warfare capabilities, unless authorized by the President (This is a power grab in itself, as this describes an act of war and by the constitution shall be left up to a joint Act of Congress).
The Executive Order designates that these powers previously granted solely to the President are now delegated to the Secretary of Defense, who is also curiously tasked with the maintenance and control of water resources, all in order to benefit "national defense and infrastructure".
It therefore follows that from here on out, the Secretary of Defense is the licenser for the production and implementation of biological or chemical warfare, with the (increased) capability to introduce biological or chemical agents to the populace through control of water resource.
Think Serenity .
(and by the way, this is an ongoing movement: read about Lithium already in our drinking water @:
http://bigthink.com/ideas/21538 )
C. Transportation
Sec. 801. (a) "Civil Transportation" includes movement of persons and property by all modes of transportation in interstate, intrastate, or foreign commerce within the United States, its territories and possessions, and the District of Columbia, and related public storage and warehousing, ports, services, equipment and facilities, such as transportation carrier shop and repair facilities. "Civil transportation" also shall include direction, control, and coordination of civil transportation capacity regardless of ownership.This makes it possible for the Department of Transportation to seize and control all highways, roads, aircraft companies and all assets, the CTA and all assets, All shipping, anything that could possibly be used to move a person or a thing. of course it is then possible for the department to shut down companies deemed harmful (any companies with foreign investors or providing services overseas) within the U.S.
D. Health Care Services
(i)"Health resources" means drugs, biological products, medical devices, materials, facilities, health supplies, services and equipment required to diagnose, mitigate or prevent the impairment of, improve, treat, cure, or restore the physical or mental health conditions of the population.
E. Energy
b) "Energy" means all forms of energy including petroleum, gas (both natural and manufactured), electricity, solid fuels (including all forms of coal, coke, coal chemicals, coal liquification, and coal gasification), solar, wind, other types of renewable energy, atomic energy, and the production, conservation, use, control, and distribution (including pipelines) of all of these forms of energy.
According to the defense act of 1950, The president does not have the power to appropriate gasoline resources or to manipulate the price of gasoline to benefit national defense. OBAMA(corp) has obviously overturned these particular provisions, putting entire industries at the whim of the Administration.
F. Agriculture
"Food resources" means all commodities and products, (simple, mixed, or compound), or complements to such commodities or products, that are capable of being ingested by either human beings or animals, irrespective of other uses to which such commodities or products may be put, at all stages of processing from the raw commodity to the products thereof in vendible form for human or animal consumption. "Food resources" also means potable water packaged in commercially marketable containers, all starches, sugars, vegetable and animal or marine fats and oils, seed, cotton, hemp, and flax fiber, but does not mean any such material after it loses its identity as an agricultural commodity or agricultural product.
"Food resource facilities" means plants, machinery, vehicles (including on farm), and other facilities required for the production, processing, distribution, and storage (including cold storage) of food resources, and for the domestic distribution of farm equipment and fertilizer (excluding transportation thereof).G. Department of Labor:
" The Secretary Shall:
Information (intelligence) and the possibility of a Draft. What more needs to be said? Depart of Labor will have a workers file on you and will decide where best to train and allocate you (it goes on to say).(1) collect and maintain data necessary to make a continuing appraisal of the Nation's workforce needs for purposes of national defense;(2) upon request by the Director of Selective Service, and in coordination with the Secretary of Defense, assist the Director of Selective Service in development of policies regulating the induction and deferment of persons for duty in the armed services;"
Like pre-Soviet Russia, we will have a socialized civilian labor force, a Civil Service, tailored by the Department of Labor towards the particular needs of "National Defense".
IV. Foreign powers
Curiously mentioned is the imperative to provide financial assistance to foreign powers, indicating that this executive order may not be an independent move by the Obama(corp) administration, but moreover a plan for legal cooperation of foreign financial and industrial powers.
'National Defense' is further defined as:
"programs for military and energy production or construction, military or critical infrastructure assistance to any foreign nation, homeland security, stockpiling, space, and any directly related activity"Under this newly broadened definition, several recent controversies are apparently legitimized, including the ATF's wholesale of military-issue armaments directly to Drug Cartels in Mexico, the material and logistical support of the Behngazi uprising that dethroned Muommar Ghaddafi, and most assuredly many operations we know nothing about are now permissable and routine.
V. WAR IS NOW OFFICIALLY PEACE!
Notice I have quoted a passage above (103c) in which the phrasing used is a "potential threat to security." it does not say "direct attack or invasion". It does not say "due to unforeseeable natural disasters" or even the old tried and true "in case of conspiracy to commit terrorism, blah blah blah al qaeda blah blah blah muslim (extremists)s".
At whim, or scent of need, the Executive office has claimed the right to buy (forcibly) anything from land, agricultural equipment, mining equipment within the U.S., whatever is needed to ensure the superiority of the Administration.
they can (ostensibly) shut down companies they don't like, and officialy sponser/effectively socialize any other companies they want
VI. National American Socialist Party:
the Enabling Act of 1933 "allowed the cabinet to enact legislation, including laws deviating from or altering the constitution, without the consent of the Reichstag." Reichstag(congress) is expected to change any laws necessary to make Hitler's actions legal.
Current events mirror precisely Hitler's rise to power in Germany. All the power has already been grabbed. All we're missing is an event, (for Hitler, he burned down the roof over the Reichstag's head, and three days later there was no constitution).
the Reichstag Fire act: "the Constitution of the German Reich [is] suspended until further notice. It is therefore permissible to restrict the rights of personal freedom [habeas corpus], freedom of (opinion) expression, including the freedom of the press, the freedom to organize and assemble, the privacy of postal, telegraphic and telephonic communications. Warrants for House searches, orders for confiscations as well as restrictions on property, are also permissible beyond the legal limits otherwise prescribed."
So the question is, if a plane hits Congress, or the stock market crashes, or Obama(corp) starts to feel like he could be impeached or defeated in election, will we believe them when they redefine belligerant terrorist' to mean someone who looks a little more like you?
What has already come to pass:
No right to assembly or expression of opinion. No right to due process by a jury of your peers. No right to bear arms or form militia. No longer a right to private property. No longer do you have sovereign right to life, liberty, or the pursuit of anything but a merciful end from an unmanned killing machine.
And now it's all 'legal', according to the new Executive Order.
--------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
Write your Congressional Representative a letter and tell them to Impeach Obama and immediately cut all Military/defense spending to pre-9/11 era levels!
Share information! Don't be taken unaware! Don't let your brothers and sisters struggle in the dark!

Statement of Purpose
"[to] Bring about a total revolution in What Is, one must have an extraordinary sense of awareness."
J. Krishnamurti
Social Networking is a devilish invention which (on my part) has been used only for vanity and to assuage insecurity. It has become easy for one to feel that digital outlets are the only way to say something that anyone will hear, if only within the cave of one's own friends list. I used Facebook to funnel all the "WTF??" moments, which now happens every time I look at a news headline, in front of everyone I know. I always hope to force some discussion or at the very least (or most) feel like I'm not completely alone, but such zealousness is understandably uncomfortable and pushes some minds away. And so I have become more alone.
So facebook friends, I hereby pledge (to try) not to post five articles a night about genocide, mad-science and Orwellian-prophecies-come-true. Instead you may see one consolidated message with lots of exclamation points urging you to be a reader of this blog and to become a talker, whether you agree or disagree.
If you think I'm crazy, I'm interested to hear your research and counter-points.
I believe there is a peaceful, pacifistic way towards a more perfect society and system of governance. I also believe that the system (Financial, Material, Governmental IN THAT ORDER) is a living organism - not a person, but a dumb, instinctual protozoan, reacting and acting according to its hungers and for its own self preservation. I would also like to contend that the beast has no one face, no one head that can be attacked, but must be seen as the Hydra it is.
To create the world we want to live in, we must become aware of What Is, and how that is different from What We Are Told/ What We See. This is my cupboard, my curio, for vanity and insecurity, a place to put my research, speak my thoughts and perhaps feel less alone in my struggle for Peace of Mind. With the intent at analyzing and postulating, without drawing conclusion of right or wrong, I will present what I see, in hopes of illuminating for all WHAT REALLY IS.
Because, What REALLY IS going on????
scientific modification, private action committees, banker bailouts, austerity measures, 'world hunger', carbon taxes, suppression of protest, police brutality, unmanned assassination, media blitzes/blackouts, dual party systems, techno-control, the CONSTITUTION UNDER ATTACK, jackal warfare, corporate self-preservation, etc, etc.
In daily life, I most often feel the people around me don't want to talk about permanent war or political corruption. Of course, matters are unpleasant. Of course, life requires further thought, dialogue, and action. Ignoring Chaos does not create Order. Only through awareness can WHAT IS be changed.
To re-state, True Revolution Is Of The Mind. According to this philosophy I have named this page Peaceful Undermind. I hope not to contend with but to defeat outright the forces of propaganda and dismissive consciousness that attack us at every moment of every day. Not everything here is true, but is all displayed in the pathless pursuit of truth.
Thank you. Peace, Love, and Good Luck!
