2009 -- The Year of Transformation

When I started this blog seven months ago, I was warning about the financial tsunami to come. We are now in it. Actually, what we are experiencing is like a tsunami surrounded by, and in the eye of, a category five geopolitical hurricane. However inadequate the metaphors, 2009 promises to be a year of significant national and world-wide crisis. America's survival is at stake.

Rather than try to write my own definitive analysis of where we are, and predictions for the near future, I'll try to keep my comments short and refer you to a number of articles that do a better job than I. I may not agree with all they wrote, or their ultimate perspective, but nor will you, dear reader, agree with mine. But I'll post these articles for their significance to what I'm writing.
Since my comments will be short, try to read or thoroughly skim these links. They will help you put together a picture of the threats and possibilities we should encounter this year.

We're moving head-on into the generational crisis described by Strauss and Howe in their seminal book, "The Fourth Turning." Similar to World War II, the Civil War (or, if you prefer, War of Northern Aggression), and the American Revolution, the survival and nature of the resulting country hang in the balance. 2009 will be a crucial year of transformation.

In a nutshell:
  • The severity of economic crisis and the major thefts and deceptions by the banksters at the Federal Reserve and on Wall Street should begin to sink in with the majority of people by March, and certainly by summer. The Powerz have inflicted financial "shock and awe on the middle class.

  • Financial failures of businesses and governments at all levels will severely shake confidence in the system. State governments will sell significant assets to balance budgets.

  • President Obama will prove to be Bush on steroids. He is controlled by the same Powerz, will push the same policies, and is much more dangerous. His hypnotic communication skills have built an enormous amount of media and follower favor, with absolutely no policy expectations. He could easily be the American Hitler. Read David Icke's article carefully, especially if you are an Obama supporter and profess to love freedom. Also of interest, The First Time I Heard of Barack.

  • President Obama will continue to escalate US involvement in the Middle East and Eurasia, exacerbating our financial trauma and increasing our vulnerability to attacks on our soil. The blow back from US intervention in these areas and for sponsoring Zionist Israel will be unavoidable. Afghanistan will add the US as another notch in its belt of defeated empires. There can be no economic recovery as long as we wage wars of choice.
  • The dollar will face continual downward pressure due to massive increases in the money supply and government debt creation, and the world's corresponding abandonment of the dollar as the world reserve currency. Graph 1 Graph 2
  • The US will default on its Treasury debt obligations, if only through turning it worthless with hyperinflation.
  • More people will see the need to leave "investments" in government debt and buy real assets people will need, whether it be as a store of value like gold and silver, or things like food storage, tools, non-hybrid seeds, etc.
  • Real unemployment (not the fake measure instituted by Clinton in the 90's) will head upwards of 30% or more.
  • Civil unrest will result in martial law regionally or nationally. The Northcom combat brigades stationed on US soil will be deployed against American citizens to keep order. Gun haters Obama, Pelosi and Reid may make their move to disarm law-abiding citizens.
  • US regional break up is likely to start, as those areas that are bankrupt look hungrily at those areas that are better off for life-support. The intended victims will not kindly take to the role of parasitic-host.
  • In addition to his stimulus plans, Obama will inflict on the US as much of the liberal dream agenda as they think they can get away with without overreaching -- gun control and confiscation, national abortion law, amnesty for illegal immigrants, compulsory "national service," adoption of an agenda to combat "climate change," further installation of the North American Union, universal health care and restriction of alternative health choices, nationalizing our private retirement accounts, expanding the Bush total surveillance state, restrictions on free speech with the "fairness doctrine" and "free," but censored Internet II, "hate crime" laws, and many more restrictions on Constitutional liberty.
  • Without proving his eligibility, Obama will continue to be President. The Powerz will hold revelation of the truth over his head as primary blackmail. He will never produce a valid certificate of live birth proving his eligibility. Devvy Kidd, however, is not so sure he'll escape the truth.
  • People (hopefully) will start coming together in the neighborhoods and churches for mutual support and start growing food in personal and community gardens.

We need to take action. First become aware to the point of action. Then work on our own life boat our ourselves, family and immediate community. We who understand the importance of the Constitution to protect our freedoms need to take efforts now to enforce it. Dr. Edwin Viera has the basics of a good plan.

Following is the list of relevant articles. I strongly urge you to take time to read them over the next week as you make your plans for the year.

America: A Nation Unprepared! - A comprehensive, prophetic analysis of our crisis. One of the best summaries of our situation, this newsletter is a reminder that America, like ancient Israel so many times, has abandoned and dishonored God in most every way possible. We deserve, and should expect, judgment. Spiritual repentance and renewal must be at the core of any survival strategy. We are probably beyond redemption.

En Route to Military Rule - "If the conclusion voiced by [these] credible analysts is correct – if, indeed, we are living under a de facto military junta, the nature of which will become clear as the economic collapse strips away all politically comfortable pretenses – we may soon learn, in the most painful way possible, that our military missions abroad have been carefully training the occupation force that will extinguish whatever remains of our liberty."

Ron Paul comments on the many flimsy pretexts for declaring martial law and the resulting military dictatorship. Paul's book, which spent many weeks at the top of the NY Times Bestseller List, was designated Amazon.com's "most loved" book of the year, for receiving more positive ratings than any other book. His speech at the Campaign For Liberty event during the GOP Convention (which I was lucky to attend), was CNN's 7th most-viewed video of the year.

Bankrupted States = Con-Con & Newstate Constitution - "The current economic “crisis” is the tool, the highly planned and patient tool, to set up the global governing bureaucracy for real and for certain with the second convening of the Constitutional Convention in the wings. The big wigs tried it before in 1976, and they are trying again, but this time having manufactured national bankruptcy as public fear-based appeasement."

The Big Picture - Joel Skousen reviews 2008 and gives an overview of what's to come. I highly recommend his weekly World Affairs Brief, a steal at less than a dollar a week. It is essential for staying on top of current events. You can't depend on the MainStreamMedia. (If you want to see the disgusting essence of the controlled establishment media, watch new Meet the Press host David Gregory participate in the 2007 Radio and Television Correspondents dinner rap-dance with Karl Rove. This video is worth a million words.)

Russian Professor (ex-KGB officer) Predicts Break Up of US by 2010 - He first predicted this 10 years ago, and stands by his assessment. Reported in the Wall Street Journal.

Karl Schwarz's Predictions for 2009 - benchmarks for the collapse of freedom in America this year. "In time, most Americans will come to realize that the United States is bankrupt in every way there is to be bankrupt. That includes finance, income, balance of income versus outflow, balance of trade, morals, honor, integrity, propriety, etc."

The Corruption Crisis of 2008 - As we leave the relative calm of the eye of our economic Katrina, the destruction begins anew. "Corporate America , their politicians, and their foreign minions have drained The American Middle-Class of their share of our nation’s wealth and political power during the massive irresponsible expansion which has taken place during the last 35 years. This process has so altered our economic and political situation that our country has used this massive growth to transform itself from a democratic republic into a corporate fascist state right before our eyes."

Top Ten Disasters of 2009 - a likely compendium that might actually take 2-3 to all unfold. But them seem baked into the cake.

Best Way to Control the Masses - a brief look at mass media mind control. It totally undermines the popular beliefs that America is "free" or "peaceful." If this idea offends you, read the article, check the links, and write a rebuttal in the comments section.

Time Wounds All Heels - Dan Rather's lawsuit against CBS may tarnish Bush's legacy. It couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.

US Faces Immigration Nightmare in 2009 - Unrestricted immigration will strain our resources in a time of economic depression beyond their limits.

What is Left? -- wide-ranging essay on the various toxic influences in our air, food, water, soil, electromagnetic spectrum, and society.

Folks, this is it. Do or die time. Make preparations to survive with what time we have left. Make sure you get a vegetable garden planted this spring. Even if you've never done it before, your local county extension has good information on what grows best in your areas, what pest your are likely to encounter, and how to deal with them. Get non-hybrid seeds so you can save seeds for next year. And get some food storage for your family. There may be times when you don't want to leave the house, or can't. And get involved in your neighborhood association. The police can't be everywhere. Check out Urban Survival and get their ebook, How to Live on $10,000 a Year.

May God give us wisdom and courage.

Seven Years of War on Terror - Has Afghanistan Improved?

U.S. must consider that its just making the things more worse, had the world been like as it is today, if this all matter was tried to be solved on table/negotiation. This all shows the height of U.S. irresponsibility.

"Seven years after terrorists struck at the symbols of American might - the World Trade Centre and Pentagon - and the war against terrorism began, Afghanistan remains in the grip of ever mounting violence. With the violence, that took some 3,800 lives including some 200 foreign troops in the first eight months of 2008, and has steadily been surging by the year, the US plans to induct more troops for combat operations. NATO and Afghan officials say violence overall in eastern Afghanistan has been up by 20% to 30% in the first eight months of the year compared with last year and rose about 50 percent in some areas, if compared with 2007. In the last week of August alone, coalition troops killed more than 220 suspected Taliban militants in southern Afghanistan yet not without collateral damage; several operations by foreign and Afghan forces against the militants have also resulted in over 500 civilian deaths, including 96 casualties in an air raid by the U.S.-led coalition in western Heart late August."
Hope, the New year may bring some light of peace and properity for the world.
