“BARACK OBAMA: WHO DOES HE REPRESENT?” OPRAH WILL SOON FIND OUT” By FAHIM A. KNIGHT
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States”. If Barack Obama just happened to get “selected” (elected) his Oath of Office as all past, present and would-be future United States Presidents have an obligation to preserve, protect and defend the Elitist, as well as to serve at the disposal of the International Banks and Bankers----Morgans, Oppenhemiers, Rothschilds, Rockefellers, etc. If Obama like the other democrat and republican candidates are willing to expand and preserve the POWER ELITE’S wealth and stranglehold over humanity, then without a doubt Obama will be their presidential servant.
The Oath should read something like this, “I Barack Obama do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and to the best of my ability to preserve the wealth of all the DYNASTIC FAMILIES located throughout the world, protect their FINANCIAL INTEREST and DEFEND AGAINST all would be enemies foreign and domestic that might ask for EQUAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE WORLD’S WEALTH. Lastly, and furthermore, I will continue TO DESTROY and ERODE THE RIGHTS GIVEN TO THE PEOPLE IN THE U.S. CONSTITUTION and DEFEND THE PATRIOT ACT, MILITARY COMMISSION ACT, ANTI-TERRORISM ACT to the BEST OF MY ABILITY TO SERVE THE ELITIST SO HELP ME POWER BROKERS”.
These are some of the non-negotiable pre-conditions that Senator Obama and any other presidential candidate must obey, if they desire to be appointed to head the nation and the world. Someone may say this writer is downplaying the U. S. Constitution; we all handed this most precious document over to a Cabal of vipers 43 days after 9-11, which they have rendered this to a mere piece of paper with no jurisprudence weight and post 9-11 the Constitution has proven to be just a symbol without the legality to protect its citizens. The Masonic framers of the Constitution are perhaps turning in their grave, as they witness “Light” turn into “Darkness” under “King” George Bush’s administration. Thus, as stated above they have rendered the United States Constitution to a useless piece of paper with no power to confound and control wickedly wise
It was reported on November 28, 2007 that television talk show host extraordinaire, Oprah Winfrey who has been on record of endorsing Senator Obama since he declared his presidential candidacy; However, Oprah’s recent endorsement commitment went even a step further by committing more of her resources and consigned to going on the road with Obama in order to influence American voters and to use her high profile image to garnish a cross section of support for this African American candidate.
This writer does not think that this strategy will translate into astronomical electoral dividends for Obama nor will it bring him any closer to the White House. My wife is a huge fan of Oprah Winfrey and believes that everything this television Diva touches turns into gold. It has been widely recorded that Oprah has a net worth that places her in the income bracket of a billionaire. To some this would sound like a lot of money and power; however, relatively speaking THE DYNASTIC FAMILIES would not give Oprah the time of day and would be insulted that someone were suggesting her as their financial equal. Oprah does not understand this reality but she will soon find out.
This writer was explaining to his wife in the game of high political and economic stakes Oprah’s financial net worth is minuscule and insignificant in comparison to the DYNASTIC FAMILITES those who have unimaginable wealth and power that has existed for generations. Oprah’s stomping for Obama may appear as a big endorsement to the uninformed. But the decision of which servant will take the presidential seat, is outside of Oprah’s ability to influence or determine the course of such lofty pronouncement. These individuals that will be picking the next president, they pay the likes of Oprah and these so-called power symbols are only subservient to the real POWER ELITE.
Oprah has no power in these types of affairs; moreover, she could buy a well packaged Madison Avenue political image, as a slick political marketing strategy for Obama, but once it is all said and done---OPRAH WILL NOT FACTOR INTO THIS DECISION OF WHO IS GOING TO BE THE NEXT U.S. PRESIDENT. The ELITIST made Oprah, as a false symbol of black token success and they do not share power with servants. This is not going to sit well with my wife, but “truth crush to the earth will rise again”. My wife and I are going to just have to agree to disagree on this one.
Senator Obama like any other political “Gofer” is not concern about ethnic or racial loyalty or patriotism these are non-factors and not part of their overall political equation; those discussions are reserved for the masses. Thus, what ever deal the selected servant is given by the grand sovereign masters; it will be in the interest of them maintaining domination and control at the expense of the downtrodden masses.
Senator Obama speaking to the Chicago Council on Global Affairs on April 23, 2007 stated, “In order to advance our national security and our common security, we must call on the full arsenal of American power and ingenuity. To constrain rogue nations, we must use effective diplomacy and muscular alliances. To penetrate terrorist networks, we need a nimble intelligence community – with strong leadership that forces agencies to share information, and invests in the tools, technologies and human intelligence that can get the job done. To maintain our influence in the world economy, we need to get our fiscal house in order. And to weaken the hand of hostile dictators, we must free ourselves from our oil addiction. None of these expressions of power can supplant the need for a strong military. Instead, they complement our military, and help ensure that the use of force is not our sole available option”.
Obama will perhaps only continue the political trends of domestic and foreign policy initiatives that has been set by George Bush, the strategy and tactic to change political course is not determined by who sits in the White House. For example, there are perhaps little over 5 million Jews in America and they are considered a minority and there are approximately 35 to 45 million African Americans, but the Jewish Lobby is able to leverage their economic influence in the United States which to shape and mold public opinion and structure there own political destiny.
This strategy negates their numerical numbers as a minority population but increases their ability to advocate the Jewish Agenda and most of all ensure that the State of Israel is top priority for both the Republican and Democratic candidates. The Congressional Black Caucus yet lager in numbers are no political match, as far as the Israeli Lobby when it comes to leveraging economic and political influence. Power concedes nothing without a demand. So Obama is more interested in courting the Jewish vote than the African American vote because he is fully aware of their financial and political influence.
This writer can remember in 1984 Reverend Jesse Jackson ran for President of the United States of America and Jackson had made a racial slur towards the Jews in New York City, referring to New York as “Hymietown” (interpret to meaning Jewish influence runs deep in New York) in an off the record forum to a black Washington Post Reporter named Milton Coleman. Mr. Coleman went public with Reverend Jackson’s remarks who were a presidential candidate at that time. The Jewish community led by Abraham Foxman and the Anti-Defamation League politically castigated Jackson and demanded that black leadership repudiate Jackson for making what was perceived as an anti-Semitic remark towards Jews.
Minister Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the Nation of Islam was one of the few black leaders who stood by Jackson and from his Final Call Administration Building, Farrakhan delivered a fiery speech denouncing reporter Milton Coleman as “traitor” against his race and saying to his Black Muslim audience “one day soon we will punish you with death”. But post 9-11 Farrakhan would have perhaps been arrested under some section of the U.S. Patriot Act for making that type violent inference.
Farrakhan also condemned the Zionist State of Israel and it was reported that he called Judaism a “Gutter Religion” and stated the Nation of Israel has never had any peace and she will never have peace because of injustice and thievery and using the name of God to shield a “dirty religion” under his holy and righteous name. Farrakhan said the Zionists were practicing a “dirty religion” by denying the Palestinian people the right to sovereignty and self-determination. Jackson the presidential candidate and Farrakhan the radical Muslim Cleric were both labeled anti-Semitic. The Jewish Lobby derailed Reverend Jackson’s bid to become President of the United States of America and eventually they forced Jackson to repudiate Farrakhan. This writer is quite sure Obama is fully aware of this not so long distant history.
Senator Obama who is a member of a radical and militant black Christian church-- Trinity United Church of Christ of Chicago headed and Pastor by the Reverend Jeremiah Wright. Wright preaches a form of black Christian liberation theology and Obama upon announcing his candidacy immediately tried to publicly distance himself from Reverend Wright, it was not deemed politically expedient for Obama to have these so-called left wing theological connections and like a “good” politician he tucked his tail and ran for cover.
The City of Chicago has over a million Black people and it was the base of the late former black Mayor Harold Washington and has a history of being a viable and strong black electorate, but Obama officially announced his presidential candidacy in Springfield, Illinois the adopted hometown of Abraham Lincoln. Senator Obama did not go to the Southside of Chicago to court his black constituency because of their Democratic Party loyalty and traditional racial allegiance to black candidates, moreover, the risk of not going would not render any political consequences, the percentages weighed in his favor. It was not even a gamble or a political calculated risk because he knew he had two variables working in his favor---race and being a democrat.
The Democratic Party since Bill Clinton has refused to address the black agenda and the party as a whole has taken the black vote for granted. Obama like all the other presidential candidates are nothing but window dressing pawns that have volunteered to be led and directed by the powerful Elitist puppeteers. Their appointment will depend on their loyalty to some of the most powerful interest groups in the world.
Obama abandoned his natural support base and strategically and tactfully has gambled that African Americans will still cast ballots for him, if he becomes the Democratic Nominee. But this is not without precedent because President Bill Clinton in the presidential elections of 1992 and 1996 in which black voters at a 93% clip voted for Clinton, although he made no political promises to this most loyal sector of voters in America. Thus, Obama knew he could spend his time with other sectors and when it is all said and done, blacks will still perhaps show their loyalty to a candidate who HAS NOT SHOWN HIS LOYALTY TO THEM.
How quick do blacks forget that it was President Bill Clinton’s 1994 Crime Bill that landed more black men in prison than under Republican President Ronald Reagan and we witness the prison industrial complex soar under democratic leadership. It was Clinton who backed the Anti-Terrorism Bill, which gave local, state, and federal law enforcement community unprecedented authority over its citizens
Many do not know that from 1865 to 1932 blacks overwhelmingly were republicans but in 1929, blamed the Republicans and Hubert Hoover’s administration for the Great Depression and the economic decline of America. Blacks left the Republican Party in wholesale numbers and this historical coincidence has worked to their long-term political detriment.
Nevertheless, in the deep recess of their minds, black Americans seem to think that they have a moral obligation to unconditionally support and vote the democratic ticket. It seem logical to me that since 1932, there should be enough historical evidence, which documents political betrayal and broken promises made by the Democratic Party to black Americans. In essence, we love the devil because he gives us nothing.
Why don’t the so-called black leadership come to understand and advocate the power of voting the issues and leverage the black vote as an uncommitted and non-partisan bloc whose main interest is negotiating the best political deal for black Americans regardless of candidates’ party affiliations?
This writer has spoken to many African Americans relative to the Barack Obama campaign for President and there always appear to be a sense of euphoria and excitement that this black candidate will represent the race with par excellence. This writer quite obvious does not share those same emotions and feelings of exuberance. Many that this writer had spoke with were oblivious to the fact that the United States president was neither elected and/or determined from an electoral process, which is interpret to mean that our vote isn’t worth one iota in the political equation of who will take the next seat as President and ruler of the world. The Council Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission and the Bildabergers, etc., will decide this for us.
The next American president whether it is Senator Obama or someone else, will be forced to deal with the Iranian issue and its controversial President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. If elected will Obama have the courage to change the United States Foreign Policy course or will he continue business as usual. But this writer truly understands the U.S. Foreign Policy course will not be determined by U.S. Congress or the president, it is determined by the DYNASTIC FAMILIES and the political, economic, and social direction will be geared towards benefiting their agenda and not the American people.
The international community, in particular after September 11, 2001 was left with two options according to President George Bush either you was with us (United States) or against us. This insane idea created tension and suspicion of the United States and its Foreign Policy. Will OIL be the motivational factor that determines U.S. Foreign Policy under the next administration or will sensible diplomacy serve as the guiding moral compass in lieu of healthier international relations relative to the Islamic nations?
Obama or who ever sits in the White House must be willing to normalize relations with Iran and not make the same mistakes that were made in Iraq, which is an unjust war with no objective other than stealing OIL. We do not need more United States aggression in the name of so-called ridding this Shia theocratic Islamic nation of Weapons of Mass Destruction. The Persian Gulf Region is begging for peace.
This writer is of the belief that so-called “terrorism” is a direct result of U.S. Foreign Policy. For example, if Hamas was elected in January 2006 within a democratic process by the Palestinian People, it should be viewed and accepted as an official government. But the United States and other reactionary foreign governments are defining Hamas as a “terrorist” led organization, but it is a duly elected government by the Arab people. It is this type of double standards and political inconsistencies that have come to define President Bush and there widely accepted belief that United States Foreign Policy is an extension of the Zionist State of Israel’s agenda.
Reverend John Hagee of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas authored a book titled, “In Defense of Israel” and has much praise for the Jewish State but offer little critique of Israel and offer no reasonable solution to peace and in all reality, does a disservice to the Israelis by placating them in order to perhaps continue receiving Israeli and United States financial crumbs for his rightwing ministry. But the Palestinian and Israeli conflict have no peaceful resolution insight because the debate lacks honesty and conservatives like Reverend Hagee are partial the blame. This writer does not view former President Jimmy Carter, a Nobel Peace Prize recipient, as an anti-Semite because in his book titled “Palestine Peace not Apartheid” he attempted to offer a balance discussion on the Palestinian---Israeli conflict.
In a book authored by Obadiah Shoher titled, “ Samson Blinded: A Machiavellian Perspective on the Middle East Conflict” stated, “Justification of an Israel state by historical right is sheer nonsense. If Jews have a right to return after two millennia, Arabs even more may return after fifty years. The Jews, moreover, were not forced out of Judea any more than the Arabs from Israel. Facing a hostile regime, both chose to emigrate. The Israelis need not appeal to a twenty-century –old historical right. Indeed, there is no such thing as a historical right. Ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Rome, and turkey learned that painful lesson the same land” This writer guess that Shoher book perhaps would be classified as ant-Semitic material. This is purely insane.
This writer can not independently verify whether or not Barack Obama belongs to an African-American “powerful” group/or Fraternity known as the BOULE which is a Freemasonic type organization that attracts some of the top black politicians, intellectuals, business persons, etc, and those who are considered influential and for the most part the black bourgeoisie.
W.E.B. Dubois preached and advocated that blacks should pursue a classical and/or Liberal Arts education, as opposed to Booker T. Washington espousing technical training. Dubois model was geared towards sending 10% of the black population to the universities and colleges of higher learning with an objective of attaining liberal arts education and coming back to the black community and help to elevate the race. Dubois and historians called this theory the “Talented Tenth” theory (Reference: W.E.B. Dubois “The Souls of Black Folk”). Also, there is an interesting book written by Charles H. Wesley, titled, “The History of Alpha Phi Alpha: A Development in College Life” that deals African American race, class and the pursuit education.
The BOULE (Sigma Pi Phi Fraternity) perhaps one of the first black Greek fraternities founded in 1904, but most of its founders were Prince Hall Masons and/or had strong Masonic affiliations. The term BOULE means “advisor to the king”. Steve Cokley is considered the authority on the BOULE, he has a video series titled, “Boule Buster: The Plot To Destroy Black Education”. Frontline Magazine did an article titled, “Boule” stated, “We know the Illuminati (Rhodes/Rothschild secret society) also goes by the name, the ROUND TABLE GROUP the Boule, which created the 8 black fraternities and sororities (now known as the Divine Nine). Rockefeller is a subdivision of the Rhodes/Rothschild or New World Order regime”
The Boule is noted for attracting the African American Talented Tenth, it was described this way “the quintessential brotherhood for African-American men." The incoming Grand Sire Archon, New Orleans banker and financier Charles Teamer, says the Boule "is unique because no other organization brings together so many talented leaders--sometimes you have in the same room the mayor and the biggest educational and economic leaders in town--and no other organization provides such an unparalleled opportunity to mentor, change structures, and build bridges." He says his administration will concentrate on mentoring, creating new international connections and moving networking to another level.
The BOULE was originally styled after the Skull Bones Fraternity conceived as an organization that would contain the "best of Skull and Bones of Yale and of Phi Beta Kappa," In the keynote address, Archon Vernon Jordan Jr. (former aid to Bill Clinton and Civil Right leader) presented a 12-point program for personal and collective renewal, saying, among other things, that "we must create a new sense of community among our own ... bridge the growing economic gap within the Black community [and] re-Brown Brown to counter the long slide back into de facto segregation." We must also, he said, "constantly remind the new entrants into the Talented Tenth that their exciting jobs in corporate America and investment banking and in law firms are not the result of their grades and their ability and their school all by themselves. They did not get there by themselves ... and they have to know it."
The Skull and Bones of Yale University, the author John Lawrence Reynolds book titled, “Secret Societies: Inside The World’s Most Notorious Organizations” he assess this secret society by stating, “One, however, exerts day-to-day influence over the lives of virtually everyone on the planet, and it achieved this not with a tightly structured organization but via an association of privileged young men attending a prestigious university. Its existence is verifiable, its history is linked to MASONIC traditions and the ILLUMINATI objectives, its practices remain shadowy, and its activities are replete with suspicious behavior. It is Skull & Bones, a hatchery of American leadership whose members has not only achieved POWER and Prominence on a scale far in excess of their numbers, but retains their close bond throughout their careers, creating at least the semblance of a cabal and perhaps something much more than that.”
Now! The above assessment is real high degree Freemasonry because these OATH TAKERS of an Elite sector of our society have sworn to use their DYNASTIC influence (High Finance) that is tied too prominent banking families and have placed their Devotes in every decision making endeavor which to influence the political, economic and social reality of world society. The 33rd Degree in Freemasonry under Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite is styled the Sovereign Grand Inspector General. This degree is an honorary and conferred degree and it is not up for petition; thus entry into this final and terminal degree is only at the recommendation of another 33rd Degree Mason.
The ceremonies and rituals of this conferment ordinarily include some of the most powerful men in the United States in particular and the world in general. We learn in the ritual a set of questions and answers that reads like this: QUESTIONS: Are you a Sovereign Grand Inspector General? ANSWER: By giving you the past word. QUESTION: Begin. ANSWER: Jacques de Molay. QUESTION: Hiram Abif. ANSWER: Frederick of Prussia. QUESTION: What are the meanings of the skeletons skulls, bones and torches in our Council? ANSWER: They serve to remind of the massacre of our ancestors by Philippe the Fair who delivered them to the most cruel tortures. QUESTION: Why do you appear in mourning armed with a sword? Answer: To mourn their loss and be ready to avenge them. QUESTION: Who established this degree? ANSWER: Our Illustrious Brother of Brunswick, Frederick, King of Prussia.
This writer wonder does the Skull and Bones and Black BOULE’ have a loose philosophical connection to The United Supreme Council of Sovereign Grand Inspectors General of the Thirty-Third and Last Degree in Freemasonry. This writer resides in Durham, which the Mayor of the city William V. “Bill” Bell is a BOULE’ member and in a recent citywide mayoral race, Obama came to Durham and endorsed the black BOULE member and it left this writer inquisitive whether his relationship with BOULE’ Mayor Bell was based on them both being perhaps OATH TAKERS. A writer in Ebony Magazine who authored and article titled,“1904-2004: the Boule at 100: Sigma Pi Phi Fraternity Holds Centennial Celebration” stated, “What makes the Boule's success all the more interesting is that it was founded as a secret or quasi-secret organization and did not seek public notice until the 1960s and 1970s”
Obama’s loyalty will not be to a race or ethnic group; it will be those hidden forces, the power ELITE, the individuals that truly shape the political and economic landscape of the world. For, example, the International Bankers, Israeli Lobby, Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission, Bildabergers, etc. The majority of the masses of the people are ignorant to this fact and we have been deceived into believing that our voting is the determining factor of who will take the seat as the next president of the United States and the world. Electoral politics does not factor into that decision.
Lastly, Oprah or the United States electorate will not determine Barack Obama’s political fate and whether or not, he becomes the first African American president is considered a distance second in the scheme of those who will be making this decision. The next American President, as were all other presidents is handpicked by the Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission, Bildabergers, etc. May-be this writer should phone-up Henry Kissinger and ask him on which candidate has the ROUNDTABLERS decide upon. Rudy" Giuliani seems to be a front runner after that over a TRILLION DOLLAR hit that was hidden under the World Trade Center and he masterful cleaned up of the CRIME SCENE in record time after the 9-11 hoax. This writer thinks Giuliani is their man

DR. MOLEFI ASANTE ATTACKED: REVISITED DR. LEFKOWITZ "NOT OUT OF AFRICA"
DR. MOLEFI ASANTE ATTACKED: REVISITED DR LEFKOWITZ " NOT OUT OF AFRICA" by FAHIM A. KNIGHT
Dr. Molefi Asante quoted in reference to a recent attack against him on October 22, 2007 by one of his colleagues. He stated “Many people are responding to this crazy situation from all over the world and I cannot keep up with the great spirit of the people.”
This writer purchased a book titled, "NOT OUT OF AFRICA", authored by Mary Leftkowitz thus, prior to me purchasing this book, this writer had heard about some of the controversy, which was centered on this book. This writer as an African living in America has a great deal of respect and appreciation for the African Centered movement and its scholars, but before this writer rendered an opinion or critique of this book, "NOT OUT OF AFRICA" it was only intelligent that he read the book objectively in order to examine the credibility of the scholarship.
In assessing the "Foreword" and "Introduction" section of the book, it was clear that this research was aimed at being critical of the African Centered movement in which critical analysis is not all together a negative thing and I would be the first to agree that all leaders, organizations, movements, scholarship, etc., should be subject to critical evaluation and intellectual assessment.
There are many Africans in America that do not fully embrace, agree nor accept all the intellectual contentions espoused by the African Centered Movement. But a large segment of the Africans in America do respect the African Centered scholars' efforts to rescue African history from white definition and interpretation.
Thus, this book, "NOT OUT OF AFRICA" seeks to discredit African Centered scholarship as being emotional and lacking the scientific and empirical methodology required under the guidelines for those such as historians and social scientist who write scholarly studies.
This writer received an email message on November 25, 2007 and it stated in part that “Molefi Kete Asante is the Professor of the African Studies Department at Temple University in Philadelphia in the USA. It is alleged that he was racially abused by the newly appointed Dean of the College of Liberal Arts, Ms Teresa Scott Soufas. Sources informed Black Britain that the incident took place during a meeting with other staff members last month on October 22”.
“At this meeting Ms Soufas allegedly yelled at Professor Asante, pointed her finger at him and attempted to malign, terrorize and demonize him [and] made false and slanderous claims against him. The call for worldwide protests is being led by Black Nation, in Germany, an African-led organization that focuses on issues affecting the global African Diaspora.”
“A spokesperson told Black Britain that the attack on Professor Asante was all the more unfair and unacceptable since Brother Asante's achievements, figure and name have contributed to the national and international reputation and fame of Temple University in general and the African American Studies Department of Temple in particular in a unique way.”
This allege attack by Ms Teresa Scott Soufas, Dean of The College of Liberal Arts against Dr. Molefi Asante is indicative of white intellectualism using every weapon in their arsenal to punish and censor African scholars for having the audacity to rescue African history from the gamut of lies, fabrication, racism, half-truths, etc., and restore black people to their traditional and cultural greatest. This latest episode and attack against one of the premier African Centered thinkers and intellectuals in the United States and the World, is a backlash to Mary Leftkowitz academic assault on the entire African Centered Movement and its scholars back in the late 1990’s.
The email goes on to state, “Professor Asante has inspired African-Centered scholars around the globe for decades. He received his doctorate from UCLA at the tender age of 26 and is the pioneer of the doctoral program in African American studies {Temple University}. His African Centered perspective has offered an alternative academic approach to the Eurocentric ideologies that continue to provide limited learning opportunities within the field of higher education. Black Nation told Black Britain that it is demanding an unreserved and official apology to Professor Asante by Ms Soufas. It stated that such attack on Molefe Kete Asante, one of our most conscious, bold and uncompromising intellectuals, role-models, leaders and heroes is an attack against us all”.
Lefkowitz accuses the African Centered movement of being politically motivated, as opposed to being treated as an intellectual school of thought whose mission is research; she never clarified what she meant by describing the African Centered movement as being politically motivated. However, this writer is of the opinion, that all scholarship and social ideals in America are somewhat politically inspired. Why make the African Centered scholars appear as of committing an unpardonable sin?
Lefkowitz perhaps was challenging black people's right to self-determination of ideals and we had no right to develop independent thoughts without white scholars' approval.
This book gave the impression of perhaps having a Zionist Jewish agenda, no different than the Anti Defamation League (ADL) or the Simon Wiesenthal Center type propaganda. This writer considered, "NOT OUT OF AFRICA" as being reactionary scholarship with a political objective of discrediting the contributions black people made on the stage of human history.
In the "Foreword and "Introduction" Lefkowitz is attempting to incite university officials and administrators, as well as politicians to think about formulating policy and is covertly challenging the concept of academic freedom, which is granted to professors, scholars and academicians that have met the stringent requirements to be designated as a tenure professor.
This proposed new policy will allow universities and colleges the latitude to structure professors contracts, specifically tenure professors by granting the university the power and authority to terminate and rescind a tenure and non-tenure professor's contract, if he/she expresses theories and/or academic concepts deemed to be controversial or goes against the popular view.
The professors' tenure status and academic freedom clauses no longer will able to protect the employment status of a professor that goes against the status quo. These reactionary theories were aimed at destroying the First Amendment Right and controlling disagreeable speech, as well as the concept of Academic Freedom.
But what led Zionist controlled University officials and politicians to this desperate measure was a speech delivered by Minister Khallid Abdul Muhammad of the Nation of Islam on November 29, 1993, on the campus of Kean College in New Jersey, titled, "The Secret Relationship between Blacks and Jews". Whites and Zionist Jews denounced and repudiated Muhammad's controversial speech as being racist, anti-Semitic, homophobic, etc., they felt Muhammad's speech on the college campus had gone to far and the Zionist denounce the Kean College officials for allowing this radical spokesperson on the campus. Although, the university environment is supposed to be a place where ideals are shared and debated and has never been a place comfortable with censorship. The United States Congress even drew up a resolution censoring and repudiating Dr. Khallid Abdul Muhammad.
Lefkowitz cited Dr. Leonard Jeffries Empire State College speech as being academic irresponsible in 1991, but she did not mention her Jewish colleague Michael Levin who is also along with Dr. Jefferies on the faculty of City College and/or condemn him (Levin) for his racist and anti-black perspectives. This writer assumes in her mind, she found Dr. Levin's views acceptable and they met the requirements suitable for an academic environment.
In Lefkowitz conclusion it is clear that she desires to curtail and control outside controversial speakers from having access to young fashionable and impressionable black minds on college campuses. But more importantly these evildoers did not want public and private monies coming in the form of honorariums to black academics, scholars, black leadership, spokesperson, etc., to be used in financing organizations and movements, which the ADL and their white puppets establishment do not approve.
This is the larger argument and debate when it comes to black scholars such as: Cheik Anta Diop, George G.M. James, Khallid Abdul Muhammad, John Henrik Clarke, Yosef Ben Jochannon, Molefi Kete Asante, etc., who represent the African Centered persuasion. Whites historically have always shown fear of black people through out history that dared to define themselves.
White scholars have been collectively irresponsible and it is my belief that Zionist scholars and/or their white counterpart can't morally offer black students scholarly or intellectual direction. We can detect from this book that Zionist Jews and blacks are at war for the hearts and minds of black people; moreover, this dissertation, "NOT OUT OF AFRICA", is an open declaration of war in the arena of ideals.
Lefkowitz attacked the training and schooling of African Centered scholars, which to bring into question their academic credentials and dismiss them as being pseudo historians and researchers not worthy to be taken serious as scholars.
She claim to be concern about anti-Semitism and racism in all forms, but Lefkowitz did not mention Charles Murray's book (author of the "Bell Curve") as also deserving condemnation. Her mentality is the same of Jensen, Shockley, Bakke, etc., these racist scholars claimed to offered scientific data as proof that blacks are intellectual inferior to Europeans. Also, U.B. Phillips, a post slavery racist historian held the same contention that Africans contributed nothing towards human civilization.
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad asked the question, "who is the original man"; ANSWER, "the Asiatic black man, the maker, the owner, the cream of the planet earth God of the universe." Lefkowitz is attempting to limit the black man's history to about five to ten thousand years. The black man's history has no beginning or ending, we can go back 78 trillion years ago and our documentation for this claim is written in the stars.
European history only goes back 6,000 years, thus the white man and the Zionist Jew are infants on the planet. How can Greece and Rome logically speaking compare to their fathers and mothers of civilization? Her arguments are emotional and subjective, possessing half-truths, distortions, outright lies and propaganda.
I view her as a Zionist Jew, whose making a last ditch scholarly effort to rescue a dying white supremacy society. She has forgotten for century’s western society propelled it-self on false superior premises, which led to the oppressing of darker skinned people physically, psychologically, and intellectually around the world.
And in the 21st Century ex-slaves are intellectually challenging a system of white supremacy and her writings serve as evidence that the former slave master’s children are dismayed that the ex-slaves have uncovered and rediscovered the knowledge of self.
Her research did not include European scholars such as Gerald Massey who authored the monumental book titled," Ancient Egypt the Light of the World"; He maintained that African contribution, specifically Kemet (Egypt) fed the entire world with its enlightenment. African Centered scholars were only quoting and documenting what European scholars had discovered a long time ago and the bases of their philosophy rest on these documented truths.
Lefkowitz deceitfully rearranges ethnic assignments; moreover, if a fact of history favored black people, she would determine that the said contributions must be attributed to Semites, but she was actually pointed to the Khazars and the Ashkenazi Jew, which is the European imposter Jew (The so-called Semites are Arabs, Jews, Africans and other people of color). But to be scholarly truthfully the term Semitic is defined as a body of Mediterranean languages and has nothing to do with race, but her designation was geared towards discrediting Africans of their place in history by disguising significant contributions under the code name "Semites".
Those who are Biblical scholars and students of the Bible know that Prophet Noah so-called had three sons Shem (Semite lineage, the so-called Jews), Ham (Hamities, the so-called African lineage) and Japheth (Japhites, the so-called Caucasian lineage). Noah was of African descent, so what does that tell you about the above race classifications?
Lefkowitz refers to Egypt as being geographically part of the Near East, but to my last viewing of the world's map, it was clear to me that Egypt sits on the continent of Africa, which is north east Africa and in reality, there is no place on the map called the "Near East" and only the man made Suez Canal separates Africa from the so-called Middle East and the Arabian Peninsula.
Her knowledge of Freemasonry, its history, philosophy, mission, ritual, etc., were treated very poorly and left the readers with a confused and vague understanding of this complex fraternal order. The Ancient Arabic Order Imperial Council Nobles of the Mystic Shrine was incorporated on June 6, 1876.
If she would have thoroughly done her homework, she would have found as indicated in the Masonic (Shriners) name stated above, which is associated with higher degree Masonry; specifically those that have acquired the 32nd and 33rd degrees put more philosophical emphasis on Mecca, Medina, Jerusalem, etc., as opposed to Egypt.
The Muslim (the religion of Islam) and/or Islamic Holy Kaaba shrine is somewhat revered on this (high degree Masonic) initiation level much more than Egypt. The High degree Masonry known as Shriners claim to have originated in 644 A.D. along side Prophet Muhammad's son-in-law Ali Ibn Talib, the so-called founder of Shia Islam. So the Egyptian Stolen legacy concept was not indigenous to true Masonic teachings.
Every High Degree Mason's (shriners) goal is to pay respect to Allah, the God of the Muslims by making the holy Pilgrimage to Mecca and like the Muslims circumambulate the Kaaba in ritualistic form (I will at some point Post the relationship between Islam and High Degree Masonry) . George G.M. James was not influenced by Masons because most African Centered scholars would not accept Mecca because of its Arabic and Islamic cultures, which may be perceived as being alien to the African Centered audience, but Ancient Egyptians of antiquity are perceived as being black.
Most African Centered scholars and scholars in general, view Egypt as pre-dating Mecca in valor and civilization. I said all of that to say this; Egyptian Mystery Schools were not patterned after Masonic initiation rites as Lefkowitz maintained, but all of Africa operated off a system of MAAT (JUSTICE, MORALITY, BALANCE, RECPROCITY, etc.) that stems from greater universal laws.
It has been European aggression and their inhumanity to man that fostered a George G.M. James or a Molefi Asante into existence. She fail to understand that African Centered thought is an answer to white intellectual racism that has always described Africa as the "Dark Continent" and black historians through out history have always rose to challenge this type white supremacy ideology.
We are historical and present day victims but "NOT OUT OF AFRICA" portrays us, our scholars and black people in general, as the criminals just because we dare say that Africa is the cradle of world civilization.
This writer is ashamed of big white America; a nation built on 310 years of black injustice and has the nerve to be crying unfair play in the university classrooms. We remember Professor Lefkowitz just a few years ago denouncing, attacking and repudiating Dr. Tony Martin who served on the faculty with her at Wellesley College because he used the book titled, "The Secret Relationship Between Jews and Blacks" written by the Nation of Islam's Historical Research department in his classroom discussions.
"NOT OUT OF AFRICA" in my opinion, is part of a neo Zionist onslaught aimed at destroying truths in the name of censoring free speech and controlling scholarship. She could have kept this venom to herself because black people do not need white scholars and Zionist Jews speaking and defining history for us. African Centered scholars and movement have no ulterior motives or political agenda other than rescuing our history from the lies and distortions giving to us by white America.

Dr. Molefi Asante quoted in reference to a recent attack against him on October 22, 2007 by one of his colleagues. He stated “Many people are responding to this crazy situation from all over the world and I cannot keep up with the great spirit of the people.”
This writer purchased a book titled, "NOT OUT OF AFRICA", authored by Mary Leftkowitz thus, prior to me purchasing this book, this writer had heard about some of the controversy, which was centered on this book. This writer as an African living in America has a great deal of respect and appreciation for the African Centered movement and its scholars, but before this writer rendered an opinion or critique of this book, "NOT OUT OF AFRICA" it was only intelligent that he read the book objectively in order to examine the credibility of the scholarship.
In assessing the "Foreword" and "Introduction" section of the book, it was clear that this research was aimed at being critical of the African Centered movement in which critical analysis is not all together a negative thing and I would be the first to agree that all leaders, organizations, movements, scholarship, etc., should be subject to critical evaluation and intellectual assessment.
There are many Africans in America that do not fully embrace, agree nor accept all the intellectual contentions espoused by the African Centered Movement. But a large segment of the Africans in America do respect the African Centered scholars' efforts to rescue African history from white definition and interpretation.
Thus, this book, "NOT OUT OF AFRICA" seeks to discredit African Centered scholarship as being emotional and lacking the scientific and empirical methodology required under the guidelines for those such as historians and social scientist who write scholarly studies.
This writer received an email message on November 25, 2007 and it stated in part that “Molefi Kete Asante is the Professor of the African Studies Department at Temple University in Philadelphia in the USA. It is alleged that he was racially abused by the newly appointed Dean of the College of Liberal Arts, Ms Teresa Scott Soufas. Sources informed Black Britain that the incident took place during a meeting with other staff members last month on October 22”.
“At this meeting Ms Soufas allegedly yelled at Professor Asante, pointed her finger at him and attempted to malign, terrorize and demonize him [and] made false and slanderous claims against him. The call for worldwide protests is being led by Black Nation, in Germany, an African-led organization that focuses on issues affecting the global African Diaspora.”
“A spokesperson told Black Britain that the attack on Professor Asante was all the more unfair and unacceptable since Brother Asante's achievements, figure and name have contributed to the national and international reputation and fame of Temple University in general and the African American Studies Department of Temple in particular in a unique way.”
This allege attack by Ms Teresa Scott Soufas, Dean of The College of Liberal Arts against Dr. Molefi Asante is indicative of white intellectualism using every weapon in their arsenal to punish and censor African scholars for having the audacity to rescue African history from the gamut of lies, fabrication, racism, half-truths, etc., and restore black people to their traditional and cultural greatest. This latest episode and attack against one of the premier African Centered thinkers and intellectuals in the United States and the World, is a backlash to Mary Leftkowitz academic assault on the entire African Centered Movement and its scholars back in the late 1990’s.
The email goes on to state, “Professor Asante has inspired African-Centered scholars around the globe for decades. He received his doctorate from UCLA at the tender age of 26 and is the pioneer of the doctoral program in African American studies {Temple University}. His African Centered perspective has offered an alternative academic approach to the Eurocentric ideologies that continue to provide limited learning opportunities within the field of higher education. Black Nation told Black Britain that it is demanding an unreserved and official apology to Professor Asante by Ms Soufas. It stated that such attack on Molefe Kete Asante, one of our most conscious, bold and uncompromising intellectuals, role-models, leaders and heroes is an attack against us all”.
Lefkowitz accuses the African Centered movement of being politically motivated, as opposed to being treated as an intellectual school of thought whose mission is research; she never clarified what she meant by describing the African Centered movement as being politically motivated. However, this writer is of the opinion, that all scholarship and social ideals in America are somewhat politically inspired. Why make the African Centered scholars appear as of committing an unpardonable sin?
Lefkowitz perhaps was challenging black people's right to self-determination of ideals and we had no right to develop independent thoughts without white scholars' approval.
This book gave the impression of perhaps having a Zionist Jewish agenda, no different than the Anti Defamation League (ADL) or the Simon Wiesenthal Center type propaganda. This writer considered, "NOT OUT OF AFRICA" as being reactionary scholarship with a political objective of discrediting the contributions black people made on the stage of human history.
In the "Foreword and "Introduction" Lefkowitz is attempting to incite university officials and administrators, as well as politicians to think about formulating policy and is covertly challenging the concept of academic freedom, which is granted to professors, scholars and academicians that have met the stringent requirements to be designated as a tenure professor.
This proposed new policy will allow universities and colleges the latitude to structure professors contracts, specifically tenure professors by granting the university the power and authority to terminate and rescind a tenure and non-tenure professor's contract, if he/she expresses theories and/or academic concepts deemed to be controversial or goes against the popular view.
The professors' tenure status and academic freedom clauses no longer will able to protect the employment status of a professor that goes against the status quo. These reactionary theories were aimed at destroying the First Amendment Right and controlling disagreeable speech, as well as the concept of Academic Freedom.
But what led Zionist controlled University officials and politicians to this desperate measure was a speech delivered by Minister Khallid Abdul Muhammad of the Nation of Islam on November 29, 1993, on the campus of Kean College in New Jersey, titled, "The Secret Relationship between Blacks and Jews". Whites and Zionist Jews denounced and repudiated Muhammad's controversial speech as being racist, anti-Semitic, homophobic, etc., they felt Muhammad's speech on the college campus had gone to far and the Zionist denounce the Kean College officials for allowing this radical spokesperson on the campus. Although, the university environment is supposed to be a place where ideals are shared and debated and has never been a place comfortable with censorship. The United States Congress even drew up a resolution censoring and repudiating Dr. Khallid Abdul Muhammad.
Lefkowitz cited Dr. Leonard Jeffries Empire State College speech as being academic irresponsible in 1991, but she did not mention her Jewish colleague Michael Levin who is also along with Dr. Jefferies on the faculty of City College and/or condemn him (Levin) for his racist and anti-black perspectives. This writer assumes in her mind, she found Dr. Levin's views acceptable and they met the requirements suitable for an academic environment.
In Lefkowitz conclusion it is clear that she desires to curtail and control outside controversial speakers from having access to young fashionable and impressionable black minds on college campuses. But more importantly these evildoers did not want public and private monies coming in the form of honorariums to black academics, scholars, black leadership, spokesperson, etc., to be used in financing organizations and movements, which the ADL and their white puppets establishment do not approve.
This is the larger argument and debate when it comes to black scholars such as: Cheik Anta Diop, George G.M. James, Khallid Abdul Muhammad, John Henrik Clarke, Yosef Ben Jochannon, Molefi Kete Asante, etc., who represent the African Centered persuasion. Whites historically have always shown fear of black people through out history that dared to define themselves.
White scholars have been collectively irresponsible and it is my belief that Zionist scholars and/or their white counterpart can't morally offer black students scholarly or intellectual direction. We can detect from this book that Zionist Jews and blacks are at war for the hearts and minds of black people; moreover, this dissertation, "NOT OUT OF AFRICA", is an open declaration of war in the arena of ideals.
Lefkowitz attacked the training and schooling of African Centered scholars, which to bring into question their academic credentials and dismiss them as being pseudo historians and researchers not worthy to be taken serious as scholars.
She claim to be concern about anti-Semitism and racism in all forms, but Lefkowitz did not mention Charles Murray's book (author of the "Bell Curve") as also deserving condemnation. Her mentality is the same of Jensen, Shockley, Bakke, etc., these racist scholars claimed to offered scientific data as proof that blacks are intellectual inferior to Europeans. Also, U.B. Phillips, a post slavery racist historian held the same contention that Africans contributed nothing towards human civilization.
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad asked the question, "who is the original man"; ANSWER, "the Asiatic black man, the maker, the owner, the cream of the planet earth God of the universe." Lefkowitz is attempting to limit the black man's history to about five to ten thousand years. The black man's history has no beginning or ending, we can go back 78 trillion years ago and our documentation for this claim is written in the stars.
European history only goes back 6,000 years, thus the white man and the Zionist Jew are infants on the planet. How can Greece and Rome logically speaking compare to their fathers and mothers of civilization? Her arguments are emotional and subjective, possessing half-truths, distortions, outright lies and propaganda.
I view her as a Zionist Jew, whose making a last ditch scholarly effort to rescue a dying white supremacy society. She has forgotten for century’s western society propelled it-self on false superior premises, which led to the oppressing of darker skinned people physically, psychologically, and intellectually around the world.
And in the 21st Century ex-slaves are intellectually challenging a system of white supremacy and her writings serve as evidence that the former slave master’s children are dismayed that the ex-slaves have uncovered and rediscovered the knowledge of self.
Her research did not include European scholars such as Gerald Massey who authored the monumental book titled," Ancient Egypt the Light of the World"; He maintained that African contribution, specifically Kemet (Egypt) fed the entire world with its enlightenment. African Centered scholars were only quoting and documenting what European scholars had discovered a long time ago and the bases of their philosophy rest on these documented truths.
Lefkowitz deceitfully rearranges ethnic assignments; moreover, if a fact of history favored black people, she would determine that the said contributions must be attributed to Semites, but she was actually pointed to the Khazars and the Ashkenazi Jew, which is the European imposter Jew (The so-called Semites are Arabs, Jews, Africans and other people of color). But to be scholarly truthfully the term Semitic is defined as a body of Mediterranean languages and has nothing to do with race, but her designation was geared towards discrediting Africans of their place in history by disguising significant contributions under the code name "Semites".
Those who are Biblical scholars and students of the Bible know that Prophet Noah so-called had three sons Shem (Semite lineage, the so-called Jews), Ham (Hamities, the so-called African lineage) and Japheth (Japhites, the so-called Caucasian lineage). Noah was of African descent, so what does that tell you about the above race classifications?
Lefkowitz refers to Egypt as being geographically part of the Near East, but to my last viewing of the world's map, it was clear to me that Egypt sits on the continent of Africa, which is north east Africa and in reality, there is no place on the map called the "Near East" and only the man made Suez Canal separates Africa from the so-called Middle East and the Arabian Peninsula.

WHO RULES AMERICA AND WHY DO THEY HIDE?
"WHO RULES AMERICA AND WHY DO THEY HIDE?" By Fahim A.Knight
THE NAMES MAY HAVE CHANGED, BUT THE MOVES ON THE CHESS BOARD ARE STILL THE SAME
The invisible power brokers: conspiracy talk myth and/or reality? The majority of society the world-over has been taught and conditioned to reject and/or are ignorant to the notion that there exist an invisible Elitist society that was un-elected by the people, who cloak and operate behind a conceal invisible government, which determines the political, economic, and social realties of world humanity. Nothing happens in the world unless this Elitist body dictates and determines its past, present and future ramifications relative to their goals and objectives.
Texe Marrs in his book titled, Circle of Intrigue: The Hidden Inner Circle of the Global Illuminati Conspiracy, states, "Almost every `mass movement' is begun at the instigation of the Inner Circle, though the liars and collaborators of the media and press depict all events and movements as spontaneous and incidental. Artificial `crises' spring up almost overnight and immediately become the focus of attention by the politicians, the bureaucrats, the media, and the social engineers."
We would like to think and believe that our lives evolve around self autonomy, in which our present and future destiny are carved out by a matter of self-determination; thus, as much as a tinge of truth and validity can be associated with this notion, it is the furthest thing from the truth. Knowing this should be due cause for mass revolt and the establishment of a mass world movement to overthrow these powerful vipers. However, they are hidden under many layers of disguises, with numerous fronts, which makes them difficult to identify or detect and has invisible power to say, "be and it is".
Sadly to say we have no independent thoughts of our own; they mold public opinion via mass mediums (electronic and print), which is an extension of their armament to control the actions and behavior of humanity. The Ivory Tower Think Tanks is another shrewd arm of their power (educational institutions, publishing houses, religious orientation, schools of political thought, etc.) that are designed to dictate to us, what our political and intellectual position should be on all issues. In having this type power the Elitist has further expanded and advanced humanity's enslavement.
Even when we are contrary to their objectives, often at the end it will benefit the Elitist cause lock, stock and barrel. Did the Elitist orchestrate September 11, 2001 the so-called attack on the World Trade Center in order to establish Homeland Security? What is the so-called war on terror really about? Many people in the United States prior to September 11, 2001 could not locate Iraq and Afghanistan on the world map, but overnight we became authorities on the political, economic, cultural, religious and social systems of these ancient people. I heard ignorant preachers defining Al-Islam and interpreting the Holy Q'uran and defaming the Islamic religion as being bloodthirsty. They were siding with President George Bush and failed to realize that a secret cabal masterminded blaming Osama Bin Laden and Al-Qaida for a war that was neither decided by Bush or the Islamic fundamentalist. Bush the son of the former CIA Director George Bush, Senior was only following orders and as a good soldier his job was to say mission accomplished.
The United States Congress the so-called elected officials of the people, we allowed these low level operatives to enact reactionary legislation such as the Patriot Act and other anti-Civil Rights policy, which has given the United States Attorney General John Ashcroft and the United States Department of Justice unprecedented authority; in particular over American citizens and the citizens the world over in general. The Justice Department can now detain, conduct unwarranted search and seizure acts, arrest, concoct indictments via grand jury, seize real and personal assets, impose long term prison sentences, etc. If they label you as terrorist the government has the right to treat you in any manner they deem acceptable and in many cases deny American citizens Due Process.
The American people have giving the United States Government this type of authority over them in the name of fighting terror. The Justice Department are developing terms such as "enemy combatant", which allows them the legal ability to extradite American citizens who commit acts of terrorism and/or are in collaboration by way of a conspiracy with foreign dissidents on international soil; moreover, these United States citizens will not receive the benefit of international law or be heard in international courts at the Hague, Netherlands.
The United States Justice Department now has the overt and unilateral authority to cross international jurisdictional lines where as in the past these powers were once reserved for the CIA (prior to September 11, 2001 the Central Intelligence Agency dealt exclusively in covert operations, which to destabilize foreign governments, assassinate foreign dissidents, infiltrate political parties, instigate civil wars and used a gamut of other dirty tricks on foreign soil, etc.) this self-imposed authority compromises the international community sovereignty and define other nations jurisprudence system in the name of fighting terror.
What about dispossessing the United States citizens of basic Civil Liberties, in particular the so-called right to dissent. The establishment of Tom Ridge's office of Homeland Security will allow the United States President the ability to suspend the United States Constitution in the name of fighting domestic terrorism and eventually the Elitist will call for Marshal law against its own citizens.
The United States Government has giving itself a license to violate international law and justify overt and covert operations in name of what Bush depicts as "hunting down terrorist". This is only code language that justifies the hidden operation for them declaring war on Islam at the instigation of the Israelis. We are applauding this so-called effort to rid the world of terrorist and not realizing that we are true pawns in the game. All wars have one objective, which is to secure the global financial interest of the Elitist who has the ability to initiate wars, as well as determine their outcome.
I was tuning in to a Caucasian televangelist minister by the name of Reverend John Hagee of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas on August 8, 2002, who was delivering a lecture series titled, "Allah and America" it was a three part sermon and this particular lecture was titled, "Islam and Israel". Reverend Hagee appears to be one of these rightwing Christian patriots who use the propaganda of fear to ultimately incite his ignorant "Good Ole Boy" parishioners to patriotically pick up the flag and in the name of patriotism and white manifest destiny attack Muslims and Islam in the name of God. Reverend Hagee had characterized Islam as the very embodiment of evil and "good Christians" had the right to protect the world from these "infidels".
He blamed September 11, 2001 on nineteen (19) Muslim zealots but did not mention and/or was oblivious to the fact that the Rockefellers, Oppenhemiers, Rothschild's, etc., were more dangerous to the national security, sovereignty and civility of the United States and the world, than nineteen (19) million so-called would-be terrorists could ever-be. I do suspect that Reverend Hagee is quite aware of the power of the Roundtable because to attack the true power brokers Elitist will mean the destruction of Reverend Hagee's television- ministry, as well as end the financial crumbs afforded to him based on his undaunted loyalty.
Professor Quigley wrote, "The master planners have attempted to control the globe conspiratorial groups by feeding them vast quantities of money for their revolutionary work and then financing their opposition if they seemed to be getting out of control. This policy has required the leaders of London and Wall Street to deliberately align themselves with dictatorial forces which have committed crimes against humanity in volume and severity unprecedented in history."
Reverend Hagee is not dealing with truth; he appears be nothing but an apologist for Zionism and one of George Bush's Texas conservative cronies. This Christian Cleric was a voice of the oppressor and stood as an antagonistic contradiction to the moral ministry of Jesus the Christ. Reverend Hagee's theology is only an extension of white supremacy and is void of true Christian love.
Cornerstone Church perhaps receive a sizable amount of international aid from the Israeli Government and has instructions to act as an emissary with orders to defend the Israelis from so-called American style anti-Semitism by inciting Christians who would voluntarily become the defenders of the Israeli Government. We believe that if Jesus were present today he would side with the oppressed Palestinian people and for this reason Reverend Hagee and others like him are not only hypocritical but are arch deceivers.
In truth September 11, 2001 was orchestrated by the Elitist to serve their diabolical purposes of globalization, and one-world government objectives. I pray that our readers who are a part of KEEPING IT REAL THINK TANK did not believe that American soldiers who went off to Afghanistan and Iraq were fighting a war in order to make the world more safer for democracy, and not realizing these young men and women are only political tools being used to secure more of the world's natural resources for the imperialistic Elitist. The Elitist does not give a damn about the value of human life from there vanish point we all are expendable in lieu capitalist and cooperate interest.
Vice President Dick Chaney who has been tied to corporate energy sector and who is a low-level operative for the Elitist had only one interest, which was colonizing Iraq in order to control the second largest oil reserve in the world. The Iraq war in truth was/is about OIL and nothing else.
Who are the Elitist men that preside over humanity? David Rockefeller, Harry Oppenheimer, Baron Eric de Rothschild, Karl von Habsburg, Juan Carlos, Edgar M. Bronfman, Sr., Lord Peter Carrington, etc. They give orders to United States President George W. Bush and the Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. Most would argue this sounds like a conspiracy and opt to defend the Elitist Conspirators because this information goes contrary to our American orientation and indoctrination.
Our first question will ordinarily be how can this be; I have a fine job, home, own an upscale motor vehicle, attended a good university, pay taxes, send my children to the best private academy, am a member of a prestigious country club, etc. You mean to tell me others are orchestrating these things. Yes. I learned twenty years ago as a young history major at North Carolina Central University the value of seeking out the Who, What, Where, When, How and Why questions and allow my historical investigation to be shaped by this path and this path only.
These group of Elitist men control the international economies and determine the value of sovereign nations monetary currencies, i.e., from printing to spending power, in the book titled, "The International Jew: The Worlds Foremost Problem" Henry Ford stated: "As a leading student of financial affairs puts it, the world of high finances is largely a Jewish world because of Jewish financier's `absences from national or patriotic illusions'. To the international Jewish Financier the ups and downs of war and peace and peace between the nations are but the changes of the world's financial market; and, as frequently the movement of stocks is manipulating for purpose of market strategy, so sometimes international relations are affected for mere financial gain".
Greenspan Chairman of the Federal Reserve is a puppet for the nine Central Banks. The Elitist also appoints the leadership of all nations regardless of the form of government; it truly does not matter to them. Who are the Oath Takers? They entice these low-level operatives by offering them huge sums of material crumbs, but all of them (George W. Bush, Dick Chaney, Donald Rumsfeld, Colin Powell, Condelezza Rice, Ariel Sharon, Tony Blair, King Fard, Hossoni Mubaraki, Jacques Chirac, Kofi Annan, Jose Maria Azner, Johannes Rau, Thabo Mbeki, Junichiro Koizumi, Jiang Zemin, Vladimir Putin, Carlo Chambi, etc.), are all puppets an agents for this body of invisible rulers) and by order of their Oath, must demonstrate a willingness to serve and forever protect the hidden identity of this Circle, within a Circle, within a Circle who serve as that unseen hand.
Moreover, the Elitist themselves were not elected by popular vote nor through a democratic process. This Club membership did not receive a nomination for office but was predestined to rule based on wealth and blood lineage. This Elitist Circle answers to no one and view themselves as Gods over humanity. They communicate with signs and symbols.
One of the first definitions you learn in speculative freemasonry; is that masonry is a beautiful system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols. Joseph Campbell, in his book titled, Myths To Live By stated, "The true symbol, he states again does not merely point to something else. It contains in itself a structure which awakens our consciousness to a new awareness of the inner meaning of life and of reality itself. A true symbol takes us to the center of the circle, not to another point on the circumference. It is by symbolism that man enters affectively and consciously into contact with his own deepest self, with other men, and with God. `God is dead'…means, in fact, that symbols are dead.' One cannot apprehend a symbol unless one is able to awaken in his own being, the spiritual resonance which respond to the symbol not only as sign but as sacrament and presence."
Who vouched for this man called Amschel Rothschild who stated 200 years ago, "Let me issue and control a nation's money, and I care not who writes its laws". Armand Hammer in his autobiography titled, Hammer gives us a clear definition of how multibillionaires view business he states, "Business, in one of its dimensions, is battle. Competive capitalism inevitable places individuals companies and corporations in conflict with each other. It is a harsh and bruising system, unkind and unforgiving to the weak and the timid, but is also, as President Kennedy said, the most durable system we know for the creation of wealth and material progress."
The Rothschild sons strategically took different European countries, which to carryout their plan to dominate world finances and control banking houses the world-over, e.g., Anslem Rothschild took Frankfort, Solomon Rothschild took Vienna, Nathan Mayer Rothschild took London, Charles Rothschild took Naples and James Rothschild took Paris. History bears witness to the success of this plot because the Rothschild family trust presently have their tentacles wrapped around the whole of humanity.
These powerful men of historical significance and their now present descendants carryout their globalization plots within organization that are more powerful and influential than world governments; thus, many of us have never heard of the Order of Illuminati, House of Rothschild, Skull and Bones, Anglo American Establishment, Council of Foreign Relations, Club of Rome, Trilateral Commission, etc., these are the true power brokers. In addition, the Council on Foreign Relations is the most powerful organization in the United States and arguably in the world.
This private organization of scholars, business executives and political leaders study global problems and play key roles in developing U.S. Foreign policy. It is controlled by an elect group of men recruited from Skull and Bones and Key societies of Harvard and Yale, which are both chapters of a branch of the Illuminati (Reference: David Horowitz, The Rockefellers and American Dynasty).
Reverend Pat Roberson in his book titled, The New World Order states "If indeed members of the Rothschild family or their close associates were polluted by the occultism of Weishaupt's Illuminati Freemasonry, we may have discovered the link between the occult and the world of high finance. Remember, the Rothschilds financed Cecil Rhodes in Africa; Lord Rothschild was a member of the inner circle of Rhodes's English Round Tables; Paul Warburg, architect of the federal Reserve System, was a Rothschild agent".
The late Dr. Carroll Quigley a former Georgetown University professor, author of the monumental book titled, Tragedy and Hope who recruited and initiated President William Jefferson Clinton in to becoming a servant and a low level operative for the Elitist. Quigley stated, "I know the operations of this network because I have studied it for twenty years and was permitted for two years, in the early 1960's, to examine its papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it or to most its aims and have, for much of my life, been close to it and to many of its instruments. I have objected, both in the past and recently, to a few of its policies…but in general my chief difference of opinion is that it wishes to remain unknown, and I believe its role in history is significant enough to be known."
The Elitist have swore to secret obligations which binds them to a world of secrecy, they answer to NO ONE, except its members, have pulled the strings on ALL world events. The Elitist knows NO national boundaries, is ABOVE the laws of ALL countries and controls every aspect of politics, religion, commerce, industry, banking, insurance, mining and even the drug trade; moreover, few people have even been aware of their existence, let alone power, in manipulating the affairs of the entire World.
John Rice in book titled, Lodges Examined By The Bible states that in the entered Apprentice (First Degree of Freemasonry) requires each initiate to oath themselves by stating, "that I will always hail, ever conceal and never reveal any of the secret arts, parts or points of the hidden mysteries of ancient Freemasonry…I furthermore solemnly promise and swear that I will not write, print, paint, stamp, stain, cut, carve, mark or engrave them, or cause the same to be done, upon anything movable or immovable capable of receiving the last impression of a word, syllable, letter or character, whereby the same may become legible or intelligible to myself or to any person under the whole canopy of heaven, and the secrets of Freemasonry be thereby unlawfully obtained through my unworthiness."
This writer surely understands that yet the Elitist and Freemasonry share some common threads; however, the Elitist is not bind by Masonic lodge ritualism and they run circles around Blue Lodge Masonry and high degree Masonry.
These type Masonic front organizations serve as layers of protection and buffers for the inner circle Elitist. Nesta H. Webster in his book titled, Secret Societies And Subversive Movements, states, " that there are three Freemasonries, one above the other: (1) Plus Masonry (i.e., the three craft degrees), in which none of the real secrets are revealed to the members and which serve merely as a sorting ground for selecting likely subjects; (2) The Upper Degrees, in which most of the members, whilst imaging themselves to have been initiated into the whole create of the order and bursting with importance over their imaginary role of leaders, are only admitted to a partial knowledge of the goal to which are tending, and (3) the inner circle, `the true masters' those who conceal themselves behind high-grade Masonry. Admission to this inner circle maybe, however, not a matter of degrees."
The Elitist has a sworn secrecy to accumulate money and control the world finances and in essence everything else would be considered a distance second. It has been proven that over 95 percent of the world's wealth is controlled by a minority five percent who in many cases are faceless and nameless and will not appear on your Fortune 500 listing as corporate executives. They do not desire to be recognized by the public because of practicing the ART OF DECEPTION.
Lets look at history, because of all our subjects' history is best qualified to reward all of our research. Did you know that since 1971 during the President Nixon's term of office, the dollar ceased to back by silver or gold? There has been no true international gold standard since the end of World War 1, when gold could no longer be freely converted. In 1933, the United States abandoned the "managed gold standard."
The world is now on the dollar standard allowing the United States Monetary policy (which is set by the Federal Reserve) to have a major effect on world economy. The dollar is the unit in terms of which the exchange notes of other currencies are expressed. Other countries maintain their official exchange notes (pounds, francs, marks, etc.) by buying and selling United States dollars and holding United States dollars as their main reserve currency. Your dollar has no real value. The privately owned Federal Reserve Bank assigns it worth to it.
Some people believe that the Federal Reserve is a governmental entity under auspices of the United States Government and will be shock to know that is privately owned. Pat Robertson states, "But since most people are not aware that the Federal Reserve System is owned by member [central] banks, which are in turn owned by private investors, it might be instructive to show who had stock in the Federal Reserve Board at its inception. Since the Federal Reserve Bank of New York was to set interest rates and direct open market operations, this bank was far more powerful than any other. Its first governor was Benjamin Strong, president of the Morgan Bank, and one of the participants at Jekyll Island …"
Lastly, some would read this and become overwhelmed because no one ever told them about this invisible Elitist Government that wails more power and authority than sovereign governments, in fact governments and their leaders are servants to their Elitist Masters. However, there are many who are somewhat aware of these facts but just could not fully connect the dots and therefore rendered their understanding meaningless, which to intelligently convey this thought to others, as well as, expose this hidden evil cabal. This article was not written with the intent to incite fear in readers but to inform Black people, my people of the pending danger that lie ahead.

THE NAMES MAY HAVE CHANGED, BUT THE MOVES ON THE CHESS BOARD ARE STILL THE SAME
The invisible power brokers: conspiracy talk myth and/or reality? The majority of society the world-over has been taught and conditioned to reject and/or are ignorant to the notion that there exist an invisible Elitist society that was un-elected by the people, who cloak and operate behind a conceal invisible government, which determines the political, economic, and social realties of world humanity. Nothing happens in the world unless this Elitist body dictates and determines its past, present and future ramifications relative to their goals and objectives.
Texe Marrs in his book titled, Circle of Intrigue: The Hidden Inner Circle of the Global Illuminati Conspiracy, states, "Almost every `mass movement' is begun at the instigation of the Inner Circle, though the liars and collaborators of the media and press depict all events and movements as spontaneous and incidental. Artificial `crises' spring up almost overnight and immediately become the focus of attention by the politicians, the bureaucrats, the media, and the social engineers."
We would like to think and believe that our lives evolve around self autonomy, in which our present and future destiny are carved out by a matter of self-determination; thus, as much as a tinge of truth and validity can be associated with this notion, it is the furthest thing from the truth. Knowing this should be due cause for mass revolt and the establishment of a mass world movement to overthrow these powerful vipers. However, they are hidden under many layers of disguises, with numerous fronts, which makes them difficult to identify or detect and has invisible power to say, "be and it is".
Sadly to say we have no independent thoughts of our own; they mold public opinion via mass mediums (electronic and print), which is an extension of their armament to control the actions and behavior of humanity. The Ivory Tower Think Tanks is another shrewd arm of their power (educational institutions, publishing houses, religious orientation, schools of political thought, etc.) that are designed to dictate to us, what our political and intellectual position should be on all issues. In having this type power the Elitist has further expanded and advanced humanity's enslavement.
Even when we are contrary to their objectives, often at the end it will benefit the Elitist cause lock, stock and barrel. Did the Elitist orchestrate September 11, 2001 the so-called attack on the World Trade Center in order to establish Homeland Security? What is the so-called war on terror really about? Many people in the United States prior to September 11, 2001 could not locate Iraq and Afghanistan on the world map, but overnight we became authorities on the political, economic, cultural, religious and social systems of these ancient people. I heard ignorant preachers defining Al-Islam and interpreting the Holy Q'uran and defaming the Islamic religion as being bloodthirsty. They were siding with President George Bush and failed to realize that a secret cabal masterminded blaming Osama Bin Laden and Al-Qaida for a war that was neither decided by Bush or the Islamic fundamentalist. Bush the son of the former CIA Director George Bush, Senior was only following orders and as a good soldier his job was to say mission accomplished.
The United States Congress the so-called elected officials of the people, we allowed these low level operatives to enact reactionary legislation such as the Patriot Act and other anti-Civil Rights policy, which has given the United States Attorney General John Ashcroft and the United States Department of Justice unprecedented authority; in particular over American citizens and the citizens the world over in general. The Justice Department can now detain, conduct unwarranted search and seizure acts, arrest, concoct indictments via grand jury, seize real and personal assets, impose long term prison sentences, etc. If they label you as terrorist the government has the right to treat you in any manner they deem acceptable and in many cases deny American citizens Due Process.
The American people have giving the United States Government this type of authority over them in the name of fighting terror. The Justice Department are developing terms such as "enemy combatant", which allows them the legal ability to extradite American citizens who commit acts of terrorism and/or are in collaboration by way of a conspiracy with foreign dissidents on international soil; moreover, these United States citizens will not receive the benefit of international law or be heard in international courts at the Hague, Netherlands.
The United States Justice Department now has the overt and unilateral authority to cross international jurisdictional lines where as in the past these powers were once reserved for the CIA (prior to September 11, 2001 the Central Intelligence Agency dealt exclusively in covert operations, which to destabilize foreign governments, assassinate foreign dissidents, infiltrate political parties, instigate civil wars and used a gamut of other dirty tricks on foreign soil, etc.) this self-imposed authority compromises the international community sovereignty and define other nations jurisprudence system in the name of fighting terror.
What about dispossessing the United States citizens of basic Civil Liberties, in particular the so-called right to dissent. The establishment of Tom Ridge's office of Homeland Security will allow the United States President the ability to suspend the United States Constitution in the name of fighting domestic terrorism and eventually the Elitist will call for Marshal law against its own citizens.
The United States Government has giving itself a license to violate international law and justify overt and covert operations in name of what Bush depicts as "hunting down terrorist". This is only code language that justifies the hidden operation for them declaring war on Islam at the instigation of the Israelis. We are applauding this so-called effort to rid the world of terrorist and not realizing that we are true pawns in the game. All wars have one objective, which is to secure the global financial interest of the Elitist who has the ability to initiate wars, as well as determine their outcome.
I was tuning in to a Caucasian televangelist minister by the name of Reverend John Hagee of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas on August 8, 2002, who was delivering a lecture series titled, "Allah and America" it was a three part sermon and this particular lecture was titled, "Islam and Israel". Reverend Hagee appears to be one of these rightwing Christian patriots who use the propaganda of fear to ultimately incite his ignorant "Good Ole Boy" parishioners to patriotically pick up the flag and in the name of patriotism and white manifest destiny attack Muslims and Islam in the name of God. Reverend Hagee had characterized Islam as the very embodiment of evil and "good Christians" had the right to protect the world from these "infidels".
He blamed September 11, 2001 on nineteen (19) Muslim zealots but did not mention and/or was oblivious to the fact that the Rockefellers, Oppenhemiers, Rothschild's, etc., were more dangerous to the national security, sovereignty and civility of the United States and the world, than nineteen (19) million so-called would-be terrorists could ever-be. I do suspect that Reverend Hagee is quite aware of the power of the Roundtable because to attack the true power brokers Elitist will mean the destruction of Reverend Hagee's television- ministry, as well as end the financial crumbs afforded to him based on his undaunted loyalty.
Professor Quigley wrote, "The master planners have attempted to control the globe conspiratorial groups by feeding them vast quantities of money for their revolutionary work and then financing their opposition if they seemed to be getting out of control. This policy has required the leaders of London and Wall Street to deliberately align themselves with dictatorial forces which have committed crimes against humanity in volume and severity unprecedented in history."
Reverend Hagee is not dealing with truth; he appears be nothing but an apologist for Zionism and one of George Bush's Texas conservative cronies. This Christian Cleric was a voice of the oppressor and stood as an antagonistic contradiction to the moral ministry of Jesus the Christ. Reverend Hagee's theology is only an extension of white supremacy and is void of true Christian love.
Cornerstone Church perhaps receive a sizable amount of international aid from the Israeli Government and has instructions to act as an emissary with orders to defend the Israelis from so-called American style anti-Semitism by inciting Christians who would voluntarily become the defenders of the Israeli Government. We believe that if Jesus were present today he would side with the oppressed Palestinian people and for this reason Reverend Hagee and others like him are not only hypocritical but are arch deceivers.
In truth September 11, 2001 was orchestrated by the Elitist to serve their diabolical purposes of globalization, and one-world government objectives. I pray that our readers who are a part of KEEPING IT REAL THINK TANK did not believe that American soldiers who went off to Afghanistan and Iraq were fighting a war in order to make the world more safer for democracy, and not realizing these young men and women are only political tools being used to secure more of the world's natural resources for the imperialistic Elitist. The Elitist does not give a damn about the value of human life from there vanish point we all are expendable in lieu capitalist and cooperate interest.
Vice President Dick Chaney who has been tied to corporate energy sector and who is a low-level operative for the Elitist had only one interest, which was colonizing Iraq in order to control the second largest oil reserve in the world. The Iraq war in truth was/is about OIL and nothing else.
Who are the Elitist men that preside over humanity? David Rockefeller, Harry Oppenheimer, Baron Eric de Rothschild, Karl von Habsburg, Juan Carlos, Edgar M. Bronfman, Sr., Lord Peter Carrington, etc. They give orders to United States President George W. Bush and the Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. Most would argue this sounds like a conspiracy and opt to defend the Elitist Conspirators because this information goes contrary to our American orientation and indoctrination.
Our first question will ordinarily be how can this be; I have a fine job, home, own an upscale motor vehicle, attended a good university, pay taxes, send my children to the best private academy, am a member of a prestigious country club, etc. You mean to tell me others are orchestrating these things. Yes. I learned twenty years ago as a young history major at North Carolina Central University the value of seeking out the Who, What, Where, When, How and Why questions and allow my historical investigation to be shaped by this path and this path only.
These group of Elitist men control the international economies and determine the value of sovereign nations monetary currencies, i.e., from printing to spending power, in the book titled, "The International Jew: The Worlds Foremost Problem" Henry Ford stated: "As a leading student of financial affairs puts it, the world of high finances is largely a Jewish world because of Jewish financier's `absences from national or patriotic illusions'. To the international Jewish Financier the ups and downs of war and peace and peace between the nations are but the changes of the world's financial market; and, as frequently the movement of stocks is manipulating for purpose of market strategy, so sometimes international relations are affected for mere financial gain".
Greenspan Chairman of the Federal Reserve is a puppet for the nine Central Banks. The Elitist also appoints the leadership of all nations regardless of the form of government; it truly does not matter to them. Who are the Oath Takers? They entice these low-level operatives by offering them huge sums of material crumbs, but all of them (George W. Bush, Dick Chaney, Donald Rumsfeld, Colin Powell, Condelezza Rice, Ariel Sharon, Tony Blair, King Fard, Hossoni Mubaraki, Jacques Chirac, Kofi Annan, Jose Maria Azner, Johannes Rau, Thabo Mbeki, Junichiro Koizumi, Jiang Zemin, Vladimir Putin, Carlo Chambi, etc.), are all puppets an agents for this body of invisible rulers) and by order of their Oath, must demonstrate a willingness to serve and forever protect the hidden identity of this Circle, within a Circle, within a Circle who serve as that unseen hand.
Moreover, the Elitist themselves were not elected by popular vote nor through a democratic process. This Club membership did not receive a nomination for office but was predestined to rule based on wealth and blood lineage. This Elitist Circle answers to no one and view themselves as Gods over humanity. They communicate with signs and symbols.
One of the first definitions you learn in speculative freemasonry; is that masonry is a beautiful system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols. Joseph Campbell, in his book titled, Myths To Live By stated, "The true symbol, he states again does not merely point to something else. It contains in itself a structure which awakens our consciousness to a new awareness of the inner meaning of life and of reality itself. A true symbol takes us to the center of the circle, not to another point on the circumference. It is by symbolism that man enters affectively and consciously into contact with his own deepest self, with other men, and with God. `God is dead'…means, in fact, that symbols are dead.' One cannot apprehend a symbol unless one is able to awaken in his own being, the spiritual resonance which respond to the symbol not only as sign but as sacrament and presence."
Who vouched for this man called Amschel Rothschild who stated 200 years ago, "Let me issue and control a nation's money, and I care not who writes its laws". Armand Hammer in his autobiography titled, Hammer gives us a clear definition of how multibillionaires view business he states, "Business, in one of its dimensions, is battle. Competive capitalism inevitable places individuals companies and corporations in conflict with each other. It is a harsh and bruising system, unkind and unforgiving to the weak and the timid, but is also, as President Kennedy said, the most durable system we know for the creation of wealth and material progress."
The Rothschild sons strategically took different European countries, which to carryout their plan to dominate world finances and control banking houses the world-over, e.g., Anslem Rothschild took Frankfort, Solomon Rothschild took Vienna, Nathan Mayer Rothschild took London, Charles Rothschild took Naples and James Rothschild took Paris. History bears witness to the success of this plot because the Rothschild family trust presently have their tentacles wrapped around the whole of humanity.
These powerful men of historical significance and their now present descendants carryout their globalization plots within organization that are more powerful and influential than world governments; thus, many of us have never heard of the Order of Illuminati, House of Rothschild, Skull and Bones, Anglo American Establishment, Council of Foreign Relations, Club of Rome, Trilateral Commission, etc., these are the true power brokers. In addition, the Council on Foreign Relations is the most powerful organization in the United States and arguably in the world.
This private organization of scholars, business executives and political leaders study global problems and play key roles in developing U.S. Foreign policy. It is controlled by an elect group of men recruited from Skull and Bones and Key societies of Harvard and Yale, which are both chapters of a branch of the Illuminati (Reference: David Horowitz, The Rockefellers and American Dynasty).
Reverend Pat Roberson in his book titled, The New World Order states "If indeed members of the Rothschild family or their close associates were polluted by the occultism of Weishaupt's Illuminati Freemasonry, we may have discovered the link between the occult and the world of high finance. Remember, the Rothschilds financed Cecil Rhodes in Africa; Lord Rothschild was a member of the inner circle of Rhodes's English Round Tables; Paul Warburg, architect of the federal Reserve System, was a Rothschild agent".
The late Dr. Carroll Quigley a former Georgetown University professor, author of the monumental book titled, Tragedy and Hope who recruited and initiated President William Jefferson Clinton in to becoming a servant and a low level operative for the Elitist. Quigley stated, "I know the operations of this network because I have studied it for twenty years and was permitted for two years, in the early 1960's, to examine its papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it or to most its aims and have, for much of my life, been close to it and to many of its instruments. I have objected, both in the past and recently, to a few of its policies…but in general my chief difference of opinion is that it wishes to remain unknown, and I believe its role in history is significant enough to be known."
The Elitist have swore to secret obligations which binds them to a world of secrecy, they answer to NO ONE, except its members, have pulled the strings on ALL world events. The Elitist knows NO national boundaries, is ABOVE the laws of ALL countries and controls every aspect of politics, religion, commerce, industry, banking, insurance, mining and even the drug trade; moreover, few people have even been aware of their existence, let alone power, in manipulating the affairs of the entire World.
John Rice in book titled, Lodges Examined By The Bible states that in the entered Apprentice (First Degree of Freemasonry) requires each initiate to oath themselves by stating, "that I will always hail, ever conceal and never reveal any of the secret arts, parts or points of the hidden mysteries of ancient Freemasonry…I furthermore solemnly promise and swear that I will not write, print, paint, stamp, stain, cut, carve, mark or engrave them, or cause the same to be done, upon anything movable or immovable capable of receiving the last impression of a word, syllable, letter or character, whereby the same may become legible or intelligible to myself or to any person under the whole canopy of heaven, and the secrets of Freemasonry be thereby unlawfully obtained through my unworthiness."

LET THERE BE LIGHT: THERE IS NO BROTHERLY LOVE BETWEEN BLACK MASONS AND WHITE MASONS
“LET THERE BE LIGHT: THERE IS NO BROTHERLY LOVE BETWEEN WHITE MASONS AND BLACK MASONS”
“IS THERE NO HELP FOR THE POOR WIDOW'S SON” by Fahim A. Knight
There is still no brotherhood amongst black Freemasons and white Freemasons in the United States of America. The majority of the “Old South” Confederate States; twelve to be exact (North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, West Virginia , Tennessee, Arkansas. Kentucky, Florida, etc) have not saw fit to end two hundred--thirty-four years (234) of segregation and racism within the Masonic Order. There are perhaps thirty-eight (38) states with white Grand Lodges that have extended formal fraternal recognition to African-American Masons, as a gesture of being polite and perhaps out of being politically correct, but beneath the so-called olive branch still lays suspicion and racism that is cloaked in white American style elitism and institutionalize white supremacy.
It was even more insulting when this writer discovered that white Masons referred to the black Masonic order of Prince Hall as "clandestine" and "irregular". This is interpreted to mean that the black Masonic Order of Prince Hall is not considered an official and recognized body of Freemasons under the white Masonic umbrella. (Reference: Paul M. Bessel and Alton G. Roundtree, “Out of the Shadows: The Emergency of Prince Hall Freemasonry in America).
The subject of Freemasonry evokes many different emotions and there exist various opinions and schools of thoughts on this vast subject of complexity. Thus, some make claim that Freemasonry is anti-Christian, devil worship, cult, secret society, anarchist, etc. This writer researched the volumes of literature and the writings on the subject of Freemasonry, exploring the views of its apologist and its pundits in order to determine what was true and what was false. The Masonic scholars defined Freemasonry as a beautiful system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols and at the basis of the Masonic philosophy are brotherly love, relief and truth.
The majority of white Masons in the United States classify themselves as Ancient Free and Accepted Masons (AF&AM) and/or some derivative; moreover, the system of Speculative Masonry (philosophical Masonry), developed from Operative Masonry (Stone Masons and Guild workers) which was completed when four lodges of London assembled in St. Paul Church yard June 24, 1717 and organized the first Grand Lodge of England. Nevertheless, one should not mistake the date of 1717, as being the historical origin of Masonry; it has been proven that black people in ancient Egypt, Africa had developed a sophiscated system of initiation called the Egyptian Mystery System. (Reference: Fahim A. Knight article titled, “Freemasonry and Islam: What do They Share?”
It is also believed that Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and Pythagoras, the philosophical fathers of masonry were educated in astronomy, music, geometry, arithmetic, logic, rhetoric and grammar in Egypt at the helm of African wise men. It is a hypocritical and contradictory for white Masons to deny black Masons their right to legitimacy and at the same time have borrowed their own Masonic rituals, philosophy and regalia from black Egyptian and Arabic culture. (Reference: George G.M. James, “Stolen Legacy”)
Some Freemasons outside of the United States will perhaps find this appalling, shocking, insulting and very much un-Masonic conduct and most inconsistent with the tenets of Freemasonry because it stands as a contradiction to the principles of Freemasonry, which according to my study as stated above are rooted in “Morality, Friendship and Brotherly Love”. Wm. H. Grimshaw who authored the book titled, “Official History of Freemasonry Among the Colored People in North America”, Some would consider Grinshaw work which was originally published in 1902 as one of the first scholarly recordings written by a black scholar on Prince Hall Masonry.
He Stated, “The Study of Masonry leads man to the correct knowledge of God; the correct knowledge of God leads to true worship of Him, and the true worship of Him places man in harmony with all that is true and good, enlarging his powers for usefulness in every vocation, station, position, or condition in life, thereby fitting him for citizenship, in whom we find a true neighbor, a generous friend, and a clear-cut and well defined power of circumscribing his desires and keeping passions in due bounds.”
Albert Pike is considered one of the greatest Masonic Scholars of all times, he authored the book titled, “Morals and Dogma” and in a chapter titled, “The Master”, he stated, “Hypocrisy is the homage the vice and wrong pay to virtue and justice. It is Satan attempting to clothe himself in the angelic vesture of light. It is equally detestable in morals, politics, and religion; in the man and in the nation. To do injustice under the pretence of equity and fairness; to reprove vice in public and commit it in private; to pretend to charitable opinion and censoriously condemn; to profess the principles of Masonic beneficence, and close the ear to the wail of distress and cry of suffering; to eulogize the intelligence of the of the people, and plot to deceive and betray them by means of their ignorance”.
This writer pulled out a copy of the “Journal of Negro History” (a scholarly journal originally founded by Dr. Carter G. Woodson, the Father of Black History Week which is now Black History Month) Fall issue of 1982, it was giving to me by one of my college professors named Dr. Earlie Thorpe and mentor over twenty-five years ago, but this writer remembered there was an article written by Samuel Banks titled, “Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Remembered the Fractured Dream” and Banks quoted King’s most famous “I Have a Dream” Speech”.
This writer found the quote fitting for this article on black and white Freemasonry; Dr. Martin Luther King stated, “But one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that the Negro is still not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. One Hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years later the Negro still languishes in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land. So we have come here today to dramatize an appalling condition. . . I have a dream one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.”
Masons take obligations (they are not comfortable with those vows being characterized and described as oaths) for the most part in the United States on the Bible, but in other nations the holy book on the alter could vary. For example, in Islamic countries, it would probably be the Holy Quran on the alter representing the “GREAT LIGHT”; in the United States, the Holy Bible in Masonic liturgy is considered the GREAT LIGHT, “it is giving to you as the rule and guide of our faith and practice, the square and the compass to circumscribe our desires and keep our desires in due bounds with all mankind, especially the brethren,”. And on every Masonic Lodge alter there it sits, as the Masonic Compass and Square and guide, which to serve as the utmost Geometric tool that has been tried and test for generations. But the wisdom contained within is rooted in ethical and moral lessons for those who entered into Speculative Freemasonry. Thus, after going through elaborate rituals and receiving the sublime degrees (Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft and Master Mason) and hearing lectures of ancient wisdom that centered on character building and self improvement. How could one walk away being intolerant and ignore the pledges impressed in these so-called sublime degrees?
The TROWEL is an instrument made use by Operative Masons to spread the cement which unites a building INTO ONE COMMON MASS; but we as free and accepted Masons are taught to make use of it for the more noble and glorious purpose of spreading the cement of brotherly love and affection; that cement which unites us into one sacred band or society of friends and brothers, among no contention should ever exist, emulation, of who best can work and best agree (Reference: Duncan Rituals of Freemasonry). Yet, white Masons have negated all the moral and ethical insight espoused in Masonic teachings and is outright hypocritical to still be practicing discrimination and bigotry.
Allen Roberts perhaps is one of best modern day Freemasonry scholars and Masonic intellectual who authored the book titled, “The Craft and its Symbols: Opening the Door of Masonic Symbolism” stated, “In actuality, you have also told your brethren that they can count on you to stretch forth your hand to keep them from falling. You have offered them your strength, your ability, your knowledge when they need it. There are no reservations. It matters not whether the aid they need is mental, physical, or monetary. Your promise contains no ‘buts’. When a brother is in danger of any kind, it is your duty to advise him of his impending peril. In doing so, you must remember that it is not your ‘plumb line’ that judge him, but by his. And it is his Square and his Level, not yours, by which you are to determine his actions. His opinions may differ from yours politically and religiously, but they are his tools, not yours. WHEN HE GOES ASTRAY FROM THE PRINICPLES, THEN AND THEN ONLY, SHOULD YOU QUITELY REMIND THAT HE IS IN ERROR. THEN SHOULD ASSIST HIM TO FIND THE RIGHT TRACK FOR HIM TO FOLLOW.”
White Freemasonry has not only gone astray, it is in violation of the principled language that defines brotherhood. Webster’s Dictionary defines brother as being “One closely united with another or others by religious, political, or family bond”. What happen to the belief in the Cardinal Virtues of Temperance, Fortitude, Prudence and Justice? Perhaps in the dynamics of race these words have very little meaning to the white Masonic body when it comes to their dark skinned Masonic Brothers. This argument is not about Prince Hall Masons being classified by Ancient Free and Accepted Masons as “irregular” or “clandestine”, it is convenient to hide behind such accusations, but what truly drives this fraternal division more than anything else is racism. Masons are taught how to communicate with a fellow Mason in darkness and light based on the language of symbolism---a word (the being able to verbalize the passwords), sign (give the due guard), token (being able to give the grip) let me stop right there; IS THERE NO HELP FOR THE POOR WIDOW'S SON.
But this social phenomenal and antagonistic contradiction between black Masons and white Masons is steeped in a perhaps much larger historical debate of race in America and the culture that evolved out of Chattel Slavery (1555-1865) impacting the political, economic and social reality of race relations and affected how institutions were originated, as well as the formulation of group dynamics ideology. Dr. Asa Hilliard who authored book titled, “Reawakening of the African Mind” stated, “mental bondage is invisible violence. Formal physical slavery has ended in the United States. Mental slavery continues to this present day. This slavery affects the minds of all people and, in one way, it is worst than physical slavery alone. That is, the person who is in mental bondage will self-contained. Not only will that person fail to challenge beliefs and patterns of thought which control him, he will defend and protect those beliefs and patterns of thought virtually with his last dying effort.”
Sherrod N. Gresham in his book titled, “Prominent Prince Hall Masons on the Philatelic Materials: Stamps, First Day Covers, and Post Cards” stated, “On March 2, 1784, African Lodge #1 petitioned the Grand Lodge of England, the Premier or Mother Grand Lodge of the world, for a warrant (ort character), to organize a regular Masonic lodge, with all the rights and privileges thereunto prescribed. The Grand Lodge of England issued a character on September 29, 1784, to African Lodge # 459, the first lodge of blacks in America.” Black Masonry, for the most part, has accepted the racist practices of white masons in a passive manner. But black Freemasonry as an institution, will be called upon to be more vocal outwardly in the black community and move away from a tradition of apolitical and a non-engagement stance while the social issues are mounting in the black community and in reality there is no room for silence.
Prince Hall, a free black man of Boston, Massachusetts was initiated and raised as a master mason by a traveling British Military lodge in 1775 along with fifteen other free black men. In addition, Prince Hall received an official and legitimate Masonic Charter from the Grand lodge of England on September 29, 1784, which led to the establishing of African lodge Number 459. The United States Supreme Court on June 23, 1929 handed down a decision, which guaranteed that Prince Hall Masons and Shriners had all the rights as a fraternity to appear in public, and in private to practice the time honored traditions of Masonry.
The “News Quarterly”, which is the official publication of the United Supreme Council 33 Degree Prince Hall Affiliated, its Editor-in-Chief Joseph Walkes stated, “prior to 1914 and even up to 1918, both white and black fraternities had established local lodges and local Shrine Temples in several cities and states. In some instances they were established in the same cities, namely Dallas, El-Paso, and Houston. In 1914, White Masons in five Southern States; Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas, attempted to stop the practice of masonry by Prince Hall Masons and Prince Hall Shriners, as legitimate fraternal bodies in the United States. The White group appeared in a Texas court and entered a lawsuit against blacks, charging that they had no legitimate right to display Masonic or Shrine emblems in private or public, or call themselves Prince Hall Masons, Shriners, or anything else”
The above historical facts should serve as evidence which to dismantle the question of whether or not Prince Hall Freemasonry should be designated and viewed by white Masons as “irregular”; thus, there is enough historical documentation that suggest that these African-American Masons did received a legitimate and authentic charter from the Grand Lodge of England. Now! I am quite sure this argument has been presented over and over again, to the white Grand Lodges of the United States, but to little or no avail. Racism is a mindset that considers black people as a group as being inferior to whites because of physical (‘genotypical’ and ‘phenotypical’) traits. The racist further believes that these physical traits are detriments of social behavior and moral or intellectual qualities, and ultimately presumes that this inferiority is a legitimate basis for inferior social treatment of black people in society.
Prince Hall has some distinguish and prominent members such as: Thurgood Marshall(Former Supreme Court Justice), A. Phillip Randolph, Booker T. Washington, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Nat King Cole, W. C. Handy, Eubie Blake, Whitney Young, Jesse Jackson, Elijah Muhammad, Al Sharpton, Mathew Henson, Charles Barkley, Alex Haley, Andrew Young, Sugar Ray Robinson, Charles Rangel, Louis Stokes, John H. Johnson, Lionel Hampton, Scottie Pippen, Benjamin Mays, Benjamin Hooks, Thomas Bradley, Richard Allen, etc., But many of these prominent African America Masons were not able to desegregate one of the last standing symbols that represent the values, culture, folkway, mores, etc,. of a nation divided on racial lines which is the collective institution of Freemasonry
The entire system of Masonry is a dying one because individuals who sought it out were not serious about what the craft offered. They got stuck at the first three symbolic degrees (Blue Lodge) and failed to captivate the moral lessons in which the Order was pointing. The traveling journey is a continuation of lessons and directions that are valuable to up-lifting humanity.
The Plessy versus Ferguson decision, which the United States Supreme Court in 1896, ruled and passed legislation declaring "separate but equal" as being constitutional and the law of the land. This legal decision ushered in segregation, institutionalize racism, and pervasive Jim Crow laws that lasted over fifty-eight years. Jim Crow Laws and segregation became to exemplify a nation divided on the lines of race. It was eventually overturned with the 1954 Brown versus Board of Education decision of Topeka, Kansas, which the United States Supreme Court declared "separate but equal" as being unconstitutional and it would be this high court's rendering that marshaled in the modern day Civil Rights era. (Reference: Andrew Hacker “Two Nations: Black and White, Separate, Hostile, Unequal)
This legal decision stood for fifth-eight (58) years and represented a turbulent era in United States History. Blacks began to socially and politically agitate the United States Government in their demand and quest for justice and inclusion that led to Civil Rights Movement.
Blacks in the United States led the fight for Civil Rights in the 1950’s and the 1960’s WHICH TO ERADICATE INSTITUTIONALIZE RACISM. Many Blacks lost their lives in this fight for freedom, justice and equality. Their social protest and agitation led to a sizable amount of public accommodation legislation being passed. For example, the passing the 1964 Civil Rights Act and 1965 Voting Rights Act, two huge pieces of legislation gained by the unswerving demand for total equality. Blacks in the 1960’s fought (Bull Connors, Governor George Wallace, Senator Strum Thurmond, Senator Jesse Helms, etc., symbols of white manifest destiny) for inclusion and brought an end to racist segregation that had unjustly discriminated against blacks for so long. This writer wonders, where were the white Masons when the United States Supreme Court in 1954 with Brown versus Board of Education decision Topeka, Kansas, which overturned Plessy versus Ferguson (1896) and declared “separate but equal” as being un-Constitutional? (Reference: John Hope Franklin, “From Slavery Too Freedom: Since 1865)
Black Freemasonry historians for the most part are passive parrots who offer no real dialogue to Freemasonry as a philosophy. Joseph Walkes is considered a Masonic Scholar Emeritus in the body of Prince Hall intellectualism; he authored one the most definitive books on Prince Hall Freemasonry titled “200 Years of Prince Hall Freemasonry Black Compass and Square”. But after reading Walkes work it was evident that he had some serious problems with how white Masons have historically treated Prince Hall and the black Masonic craft in general. But like most African American historians they shy away from tempered discussions and Walkes was no different---intellectual cowardice is the best way this writer can describe those who take the easy way out and remain silent to injustices in order to appear non-emotional and scholarly based on the rules the dominant culture has set-up for them to follow.
The majority of the Prince Hall writers do not provide the readers with substantive information other than dates and events. If they truly believe that there is no secret to Freemasonry, then why do they not offer light (truth) because only truth can rescue a collapsing social order? Walkes stated, “In my diary is a notation and reminder to myself, not to be too critical of Caucasian Masonry.” He attempted to justify his silence in the name of observing empirical research methods. He was not ignorant to the racist and social contradictions being advocated by white Masons in the name of Masonry. Joseph Walkes, the Prince Hall Historian should not have be an apologists for a racist institution they call 'regular' Freemasonry, but many of them do not have the courage nor the heart to challenge and condemn their white brethren. If that is case stand back and allow me to speak TRUTH TO POWER. True Freemasonry must be rescued from the gamut of lies, misconceptions, racism, hypocrisy, duality, etc.
The white Freemasons in the United States are still practicing racism and discrimination in 2007 against Black Masons, this is not only shameful, it is reprehensible. In the State of North Carolina, the Prince Hall Grand Lodge is located in city where this writer resides--- Durham, North Carolina and this writer has had the pleasure to meet and talk with the black Most Worshipful Grand Master Prince Hall Grand Lodge Free and Accepted Masons of North Carolina Jurisdictions. His name is Milton “Toby” Fitch; thus, he was a former State Representative of North Carolina and now holds a seat on the North Carolina Superior Court. The Grand Master struck me to be highly educated and equally intelligent, and wore the highest Masonic honor--- the title Grand Master.
But with all his academic learning and Masonic decorations and accolades he would not be accepted into the white Ancient Free and Accepted Masonic (AF&AM) family in North Carolina because of his skin color. Grand Master Finch even at the annual Prince Hall Grand Lodge sessions in September 2003 in Winston Salem, North Carolina; Finch invited the white Ancient Free and Accepted Grand Master Leonard Y. Safrit, Jr., (AF&AM) and put a resolution on the Masonic floor recognizing and accepting AF&AM, as well as extending full Prince Hall Masonic brotherhood to its white counterparts. But only to witness the white AF&AM not return the favor and voted to continue their racist and segregated practice against their Black Masonic Brothers of Prince Hall Masonry. This writer applauds Grand Master Fitch’s humanity, but questions his motives to integrate; perhaps subconsciously they question their own legitimacy by still seeking to compromise their independence and sovereignty, by always being in quest of the organizational approval of their white brethren.
This writer knows throughout both orders' histories, there have been appeals to resolve the social antagonism between black and white Masons with little positive results. Black Freemasonry claims a philanthropic posture throughout the Black community and this is undeniable. However, the majority of the Black communities throughout the United States know very little about what Prince Hall Masonry truly stands for. This is why the social and political struggles of the order has fallen on deaf ears, as far as receiving assistance from the non-Masonic Black population who has not been raised by lodge ritualism. Joseph Walkes Prince Hall Historian should not have be an apologists for a racist institution they call 'regular' Freemasonry. True Freemasonry must be rescued from the gamut of lies and ritual justification of such lies.
Naim Akbar in his book titled “Chains and Images of Psychological Slavery” stated, “ Slavery was legally ended in excess of 100 years ago, but the brutality and the unnaturalness constituted a sever psychological and social shock to the minds of African Americans. This shock was so destructive to the natural life processes that the current generation of African Americans though we are 5-6 generations removed from the actual experience of slavery, still carry the scars in both our social and mental lives”
Freemasonry in general gives the impression of representing the highest aspirations of universalism and yet right here in America, white Mason and black Mason brothers have little dialogue because they can not see further than race and skin color. What happen to the biblical lesson of the 133 Psalms represented in the Entered Apprentice, the first Degree and the foundation of Masonry? “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments. As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.”
Lastly, there is no doubt in my mind that Prince Hall Masonry will survive the onslaught of negative propaganda coming from their so-called white Masonic brothers. But will it be an affective institution in the Black community, as we slowly move further into the 21st Century? I am also equally disappointed that Prince Hall Masonry who has millions of black members throughout the United States and world, but are still seeking the fraternal recognition from white Masonic Grand Lodges, as opposed to cherishing their independence and sovereignty and continue to declare themselves legitimate, with or without the approval of their white Masonic brothers.
We have found that true masonry is an expression of justice, prudence, temperance, and fortitude and at the basis of these virtues lay friendship and brotherly love. We who believe in social justice must challenge white Masons in the United States to abolish their racist and segregationist views about black Masonry and to subdue their passions and improve themselves in Masonry. Let God shine his light on us all.

“IS THERE NO HELP FOR THE POOR WIDOW'S SON” by Fahim A. Knight
There is still no brotherhood amongst black Freemasons and white Freemasons in the United States of America. The majority of the “Old South” Confederate States; twelve to be exact (North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, West Virginia , Tennessee, Arkansas. Kentucky, Florida, etc) have not saw fit to end two hundred--thirty-four years (234) of segregation and racism within the Masonic Order. There are perhaps thirty-eight (38) states with white Grand Lodges that have extended formal fraternal recognition to African-American Masons, as a gesture of being polite and perhaps out of being politically correct, but beneath the so-called olive branch still lays suspicion and racism that is cloaked in white American style elitism and institutionalize white supremacy.
It was even more insulting when this writer discovered that white Masons referred to the black Masonic order of Prince Hall as "clandestine" and "irregular". This is interpreted to mean that the black Masonic Order of Prince Hall is not considered an official and recognized body of Freemasons under the white Masonic umbrella. (Reference: Paul M. Bessel and Alton G. Roundtree, “Out of the Shadows: The Emergency of Prince Hall Freemasonry in America).
The subject of Freemasonry evokes many different emotions and there exist various opinions and schools of thoughts on this vast subject of complexity. Thus, some make claim that Freemasonry is anti-Christian, devil worship, cult, secret society, anarchist, etc. This writer researched the volumes of literature and the writings on the subject of Freemasonry, exploring the views of its apologist and its pundits in order to determine what was true and what was false. The Masonic scholars defined Freemasonry as a beautiful system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols and at the basis of the Masonic philosophy are brotherly love, relief and truth.
The majority of white Masons in the United States classify themselves as Ancient Free and Accepted Masons (AF&AM) and/or some derivative; moreover, the system of Speculative Masonry (philosophical Masonry), developed from Operative Masonry (Stone Masons and Guild workers) which was completed when four lodges of London assembled in St. Paul Church yard June 24, 1717 and organized the first Grand Lodge of England. Nevertheless, one should not mistake the date of 1717, as being the historical origin of Masonry; it has been proven that black people in ancient Egypt, Africa had developed a sophiscated system of initiation called the Egyptian Mystery System. (Reference: Fahim A. Knight article titled, “Freemasonry and Islam: What do They Share?”
It is also believed that Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and Pythagoras, the philosophical fathers of masonry were educated in astronomy, music, geometry, arithmetic, logic, rhetoric and grammar in Egypt at the helm of African wise men. It is a hypocritical and contradictory for white Masons to deny black Masons their right to legitimacy and at the same time have borrowed their own Masonic rituals, philosophy and regalia from black Egyptian and Arabic culture. (Reference: George G.M. James, “Stolen Legacy”)
Some Freemasons outside of the United States will perhaps find this appalling, shocking, insulting and very much un-Masonic conduct and most inconsistent with the tenets of Freemasonry because it stands as a contradiction to the principles of Freemasonry, which according to my study as stated above are rooted in “Morality, Friendship and Brotherly Love”. Wm. H. Grimshaw who authored the book titled, “Official History of Freemasonry Among the Colored People in North America”, Some would consider Grinshaw work which was originally published in 1902 as one of the first scholarly recordings written by a black scholar on Prince Hall Masonry.
He Stated, “The Study of Masonry leads man to the correct knowledge of God; the correct knowledge of God leads to true worship of Him, and the true worship of Him places man in harmony with all that is true and good, enlarging his powers for usefulness in every vocation, station, position, or condition in life, thereby fitting him for citizenship, in whom we find a true neighbor, a generous friend, and a clear-cut and well defined power of circumscribing his desires and keeping passions in due bounds.”
Albert Pike is considered one of the greatest Masonic Scholars of all times, he authored the book titled, “Morals and Dogma” and in a chapter titled, “The Master”, he stated, “Hypocrisy is the homage the vice and wrong pay to virtue and justice. It is Satan attempting to clothe himself in the angelic vesture of light. It is equally detestable in morals, politics, and religion; in the man and in the nation. To do injustice under the pretence of equity and fairness; to reprove vice in public and commit it in private; to pretend to charitable opinion and censoriously condemn; to profess the principles of Masonic beneficence, and close the ear to the wail of distress and cry of suffering; to eulogize the intelligence of the of the people, and plot to deceive and betray them by means of their ignorance”.
This writer pulled out a copy of the “Journal of Negro History” (a scholarly journal originally founded by Dr. Carter G. Woodson, the Father of Black History Week which is now Black History Month) Fall issue of 1982, it was giving to me by one of my college professors named Dr. Earlie Thorpe and mentor over twenty-five years ago, but this writer remembered there was an article written by Samuel Banks titled, “Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Remembered the Fractured Dream” and Banks quoted King’s most famous “I Have a Dream” Speech”.
This writer found the quote fitting for this article on black and white Freemasonry; Dr. Martin Luther King stated, “But one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that the Negro is still not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. One Hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years later the Negro still languishes in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land. So we have come here today to dramatize an appalling condition. . . I have a dream one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.”
Masons take obligations (they are not comfortable with those vows being characterized and described as oaths) for the most part in the United States on the Bible, but in other nations the holy book on the alter could vary. For example, in Islamic countries, it would probably be the Holy Quran on the alter representing the “GREAT LIGHT”; in the United States, the Holy Bible in Masonic liturgy is considered the GREAT LIGHT, “it is giving to you as the rule and guide of our faith and practice, the square and the compass to circumscribe our desires and keep our desires in due bounds with all mankind, especially the brethren,”. And on every Masonic Lodge alter there it sits, as the Masonic Compass and Square and guide, which to serve as the utmost Geometric tool that has been tried and test for generations. But the wisdom contained within is rooted in ethical and moral lessons for those who entered into Speculative Freemasonry. Thus, after going through elaborate rituals and receiving the sublime degrees (Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft and Master Mason) and hearing lectures of ancient wisdom that centered on character building and self improvement. How could one walk away being intolerant and ignore the pledges impressed in these so-called sublime degrees?
The TROWEL is an instrument made use by Operative Masons to spread the cement which unites a building INTO ONE COMMON MASS; but we as free and accepted Masons are taught to make use of it for the more noble and glorious purpose of spreading the cement of brotherly love and affection; that cement which unites us into one sacred band or society of friends and brothers, among no contention should ever exist, emulation, of who best can work and best agree (Reference: Duncan Rituals of Freemasonry). Yet, white Masons have negated all the moral and ethical insight espoused in Masonic teachings and is outright hypocritical to still be practicing discrimination and bigotry.
Allen Roberts perhaps is one of best modern day Freemasonry scholars and Masonic intellectual who authored the book titled, “The Craft and its Symbols: Opening the Door of Masonic Symbolism” stated, “In actuality, you have also told your brethren that they can count on you to stretch forth your hand to keep them from falling. You have offered them your strength, your ability, your knowledge when they need it. There are no reservations. It matters not whether the aid they need is mental, physical, or monetary. Your promise contains no ‘buts’. When a brother is in danger of any kind, it is your duty to advise him of his impending peril. In doing so, you must remember that it is not your ‘plumb line’ that judge him, but by his. And it is his Square and his Level, not yours, by which you are to determine his actions. His opinions may differ from yours politically and religiously, but they are his tools, not yours. WHEN HE GOES ASTRAY FROM THE PRINICPLES, THEN AND THEN ONLY, SHOULD YOU QUITELY REMIND THAT HE IS IN ERROR. THEN SHOULD ASSIST HIM TO FIND THE RIGHT TRACK FOR HIM TO FOLLOW.”
White Freemasonry has not only gone astray, it is in violation of the principled language that defines brotherhood. Webster’s Dictionary defines brother as being “One closely united with another or others by religious, political, or family bond”. What happen to the belief in the Cardinal Virtues of Temperance, Fortitude, Prudence and Justice?

This argument is not about Prince Hall Masons being classified by Ancient Free and Accepted Masons as “irregular” or “clandestine”, it is convenient to hide behind such accusations, but what truly drives this fraternal division more than anything else is racism. Masons are taught how to communicate with a fellow Mason in darkness and light based on the language of symbolism---a word (the being able to verbalize the passwords), sign (give the due guard), token (being able to give the grip) let me stop right there; IS THERE NO HELP FOR THE POOR WIDOW'S SON.

The racist further believes that these physical traits are detriments of social behavior and moral or intellectual qualities, and ultimately presumes that this inferiority is a legitimate basis for inferior social treatment of black people in society.
Prince Hall has some distinguish and prominent members such as: Thurgood Marshall(Former Supreme Court Justice), A. Phillip Randolph, Booker T. Washington, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Nat King Cole, W. C. Handy, Eubie Blake, Whitney Young, Jesse Jackson, Elijah Muhammad, Al Sharpton, Mathew Henson, Charles Barkley, Alex Haley, Andrew Young, Sugar Ray Robinson, Charles Rangel, Louis Stokes, John H. Johnson, Lionel Hampton, Scottie Pippen, Benjamin Mays, Benjamin Hooks, Thomas Bradley, Richard Allen, etc., But many of these prominent African America Masons were not able to desegregate one of the last standing symbols that represent the values, culture, folkway, mores, etc,. of a nation divided on racial lines which is the collective institution of Freemasonry

In the State of North Carolina, the Prince Hall Grand Lodge is located in city where this writer resides--- Durham, North Carolina and this writer has had the pleasure to meet and talk with the black Most Worshipful Grand Master Prince Hall Grand Lodge Free and Accepted Masons of North Carolina Jurisdictions. His name is Milton “Toby” Fitch; thus, he was a former State Representative of North Carolina and now holds a seat on the North Carolina Superior Court. The Grand Master struck me to be highly educated and equally intelligent, and wore the highest Masonic honor--- the title Grand Master.
But with all his academic learning and Masonic decorations and accolades he would not be accepted into the white Ancient Free and Accepted Masonic (AF&AM) family in North Carolina because of his skin color. Grand Master Finch even at the annual Prince Hall Grand Lodge sessions in September 2003 in Winston Salem, North Carolina; Finch invited the white Ancient Free and Accepted Grand Master Leonard Y. Safrit, Jr., (AF&AM) and put a resolution on the Masonic floor recognizing and accepting AF&AM, as well as extending full Prince Hall Masonic brotherhood to its white counterparts. But only to witness the white AF&AM not return the favor and voted to continue their racist and segregated practice against their Black Masonic Brothers of Prince Hall Masonry. This writer applauds Grand Master Fitch’s humanity, but questions his motives to integrate; perhaps subconsciously they question their own legitimacy by still seeking to compromise their independence and sovereignty, by always being in quest of the organizational approval of their white brethren.
This writer knows throughout both orders' histories, there have been appeals to resolve the social antagonism between black and white Masons with little positive results. Black Freemasonry claims a philanthropic posture throughout the Black community and this is undeniable. However, the majority of the Black communities throughout the United States know very little about what Prince Hall Masonry truly stands for. This is why the social and political struggles of the order has fallen on deaf ears, as far as receiving assistance from the non-Masonic Black population who has not been raised by lodge ritualism. Joseph Walkes Prince Hall Historian should not have be an apologists for a racist institution they call 'regular' Freemasonry. True Freemasonry must be rescued from the gamut of lies and ritual justification of such lies.
Naim Akbar in his book titled “Chains and Images of Psychological Slavery” stated, “ Slavery was legally ended in excess of 100 years ago, but the brutality and the unnaturalness constituted a sever psychological and social shock to the minds of African Americans. This shock was so destructive to the natural life processes that the current generation of African Americans though we are 5-6 generations removed from the actual experience of slavery, still carry the scars in both our social and mental lives”
Freemasonry in general gives the impression of representing the highest aspirations of universalism and yet right here in America, white Mason and black Mason brothers have little dialogue because they can not see further than race and skin color. What happen to the biblical lesson of the 133 Psalms represented in the Entered Apprentice, the first Degree and the foundation of Masonry? “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments. As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.”
Lastly, there is no doubt in my mind that Prince Hall Masonry will survive the onslaught of negative propaganda coming from their so-called white Masonic brothers. But will it be an affective institution in the Black community, as we slowly move further into the 21st Century? I am also equally disappointed that Prince Hall Masonry who has millions of black members throughout the United States and world, but are still seeking the fraternal recognition from white Masonic Grand Lodges, as opposed to cherishing their independence and sovereignty and continue to declare themselves legitimate, with or without the approval of their white Masonic brothers.
We have found that true masonry is an expression of justice, prudence, temperance, and fortitude and at the basis of these virtues lay friendship and brotherly love. We who believe in social justice must challenge white Masons in the United States to abolish their racist and segregationist views about black Masonry and to subdue their passions and improve themselves in Masonry. Let God shine his light on us all.

BARRY BONDS, HERO OR FOE? YOU DECIDE
"BARRY BONDS, HERO OR FOE? YOU DECIDE"
By FAHIM A. KNIGHT
PRIDE---- BABE RUTH 1895--1948 Ruth's professional Major League Baseball career extended 21 years from 1914-1935. He had his share of off the field problems with women, broken marriages, alcoholism, etc. Rogis Maris in 1961 hit 61 home runs and would break Babe Ruth single home run record of 60, which had stood for 37 years. Ruth would go on to hit a career record of 714 home runs. But no one accused Ruth of cheating and reaching these numbers in an unethical way.
INTEGRITY---- Hank Aaron is known best for breaking Babe Ruth's home run record in 1974 and put up some awesome career numbers on the field. Aaron broke Ruth’s record at his 715 career home run and went on to hit 755 home runs. Aaron's career expand the tremulous 1960's and 1970's in which America was plagued with social issues such as segregation, racism, Civil Rights and the role of the black athlete was not well defined. Some blacks criticized Aaron for being somewhat apolitical during a time of their quest for social justice because he and Muhammad Ali were perhaps two of the most visible black and high profile athletes in America during this era. Some whites met Aaron’s record breaking home run with taunts of racism because the Babe had become an untouchable sports icon. Whether we agree or disagree with Hank Aaron's political stance is not the issue, but no one has ever accused him of cheating and he earned his accomplishments and accolades on the field as a tough competitor and professional. He is a Hall Famer with a solid place in Cooperstown.
Charles Barkley---Charles Barkley was a high profile National Basketball Association player who at 6'6'' and weighed over 250 lbs. was very quick, agile and athletic for a man his size. And from 1984-2000 was one of the best and toughest power forwards ever to play the game. In 2006 he was bestowed one of the greatest honors for a basketball athlete, which was to be inducted in to the NBA Hall of Fame for his on the court accomplishments.
Barkley is of interest to this topic in dealing with Barry Bonds because during his playing career he was very controversial and very out spoken. Perhaps one of his most infamous and controversial statement dealt with his public proclamation that he was not a role model for children. I agreed with Barkley's underlining rationale for taking this position and his statement that the true role models should be the parents and not the athlete. But I still disagreed with him absolving himself of any personal responsibility to perhaps the millions of children that did view him as a role model and was emulating him as an icon.
However, Barkley's arguments goes to the root of some ethical questions, which is, should athletes have to bear this responsibility just because they are public figures and if he does not view himself as role model, does that implicate him as being less concern with impressionable children that do idolize him? And/or do we unfairly hold the athlete to a higher moral standard and set them up for failure when they do not totally capitulate to societal standards.
JOSE CONSECO---Jose Conseco in his book title, "JUICED: Wild Times, Rampant Roids, Smash Hits and How Baseball got Big." He explored the rampant use of steroids that were allege being taken by Major League Baseball players (including himself), which in some instances went ignored by managers, coaches, and owners because of the on field productivity that was being displayed on the field by these "juiced" up athletes. Moreover, they were good for the bottom line financial figures (Mark Mc Gwire, Sammy Sosa, Jason Giambi, etc). In 2005 Congress held Congressional Hearings to explore the wide spread problems associated with baseball and steroid use.
Thus, two of the biggest name players in all of baseball were summons to testify Mark McGuire and Sammy Sosa, in which both of them were accused of using steroids and during their allege performance enhancing (steroids) usage both players put up huge home run numbers and captivated the interest of Americans to once again embrace America's past time (baseball and apple pie) sport known as baseball.
Mark Mc Gwire to date has been denied entry in to the Baseball Hall of Fame because of his accusation of cheating and as a result broke some long standing MLB records and many sports writers and fans believe he is undeserving of such a lofty honor to be inducted into baseball most coveted shrine the Hall of Fame. This was not unprecedented because Pete Rose the all time baseball career hits champion has been denied entry into the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame due his conviction of gambling on baseball games.
Some athletes viewed Conseco "whistle blowing" as an unpardonable sin because professional athletes in particular and athletes on all levels in general, share a brotherly bond and an unwritten code of ethics; therefore what happens in the locker room stays in the locker room. This code of conduct is no different than those that belong to civic and social groups such as: The Elks, Masons, Shriners, Odd Fellows, Knights of Columbus, Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW), college fraternities and sororities, etc., thus these social groups have oaths that bind them to secrecy and they are obligated to cover down on their brother or sister regardless of his/her conduct.
Sports clubs are no different, these individuals become like family. They learn to win and lose together, as well as, develop emotional bonds and lastly, how dare Jose Conseco would allow himself to become a Judas and a "snitch" exposing former teammates who participated in the use of steroids? and eventually Conseco's testimony led to Barry Bonds and other high profile baseball players coming under the microscope and being accused of being JUICED and outside the lines of MLB ethical code of conduct in which players must abide by.
AMBIVALENCE----- BARRY BONDS is the son, of the late Bobby Bonds who was a very good Major League Baseball player in his own right and is the godson of perhaps one of the greatest baseball players in the history of baseball in Willie Mays. He came in to the league as an average home run hitter with the Pittsburgh Pirates and in six years with Pirates averaged about 25 home runs a year. The most he hit for the Pirates was 36 home runs in one season.
Bonds was eventually traded to the San Francisco Giants where in one season he hit a record 73 home runs breaking Mark Mc Gwire's record of 70. Skeptics and pundits alike began to accuse and allege that Bonds were using performance enhancing steroids which provided him with the physical strength to do the unthinkable---hitting 73 home runs in a single season.
Major League Baseball and the Players Union did not have a steroid testing program or disciplinary action in place until 2002. Bonds admitted to using some form of steroids as nutritional supplements prior to the Major League ban substance rules and policies, which should render the steroid allegations as being a moot point because at the time in question he was inside the rules.
Bonds has surpassed Hank Aaron’s monumental record of 755 home runs and now sit on top of Major League Baseball as the all time home runs King. Bonds' steroid controversy has placed a dark cloud over this perhaps historical and one of the most coveted awards in all of major league sports. There are people on both sides of the debate (is Bonds a hero or villain?)
And do you remember during Bonds home run stretch, even Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig initially was not going to be present nor was Hank Aaron making any plans to share in Bonds moment once he broke the home run record. But both Seliq and Aaron later obliged Bonds with words of praise for his milestone. Moreover, Selig perhaps initially did not want to appear of giving endorsement to Bonds by sending mix messages relative to his now zero tolerance policy for steroid use.
Yet he was embracing perhaps one of the biggest allege cheaters in professional sports history. But, how could baseball in good conscience not have embraced Bonds and the record after-all these were mere allegations that were unproven in a court of law? Major League Baseball had to re-assess their anti-Barry Bonds tactics because the sport needed a boost and this writer is quite sure they financially capitalized off the marketing of Bonds hitting his record breaking 756 home runs. Baseball after all is big business.
This writer can understand why some people might choose not to embrace Bonds because of the appearance of impropriety and the allegation that he may have use performance enhancing steroids and this gave him an unfair advantage and could be considered as a form of cheating, which by societal rules is unethical. However, we are taught that an individual is innocent until proven guilty and at this juncture it has not been proven that Bonds committed any offense worthy of Major League Baseball shunning him and the historical moment he recently achieved.
It can be argued that he should receive the same honors of any athlete who breaks a major record. Bonds is by far one of the greatest baseball players to ever play the game and deserving when the time comes to be inducted in the Baseball Hall of Fame. The Bonds controversy is perhaps steeped in a much larger societal issues of drugs and the culture that breeds corruption and shun integrity. Bonds has tested negative since the Major League Baseball ban substance rule was put in place, but at any point if it is discovered that he used steroids then a permanent asterisk should be placed by his name and the record, with an explanation that states he cheated and this could be grounds to deny him induction into the Hall of Fame.
This writer thinks Barry Bonds recent indictment of perjury and obstruction of justice, as far as him lying to a Federal Grand Jury points to evidence that we live in a culture and society that has been shaped by money, drugs, sex and lies. The Bonds issue was not created in a vacuum, but athletes who show outstanding athletic potential from little league are afforded special privileges and are permitted to violate rules early on in their lives. The incentive to win on all levels by means necessary is indicative of a pathological culture and society that have gone astray and is only motivated by greed and winning at all cost; even if it meant resorting to cheating.
Sadly, professional sports and their billionaire owners view athletes as commodities (high price slaves) and they are always seeking the highest financial returns on their investments. The problems in sports can not be resolved unless you begin to address it from the top--down and not from the bottom--up. Bonds for twenty-two years had been able to positively affect baseball corporate financial bottom line. This writer wonders will the United States Justice Department ever indict the huge pharmaceutical companies who makes trillion of dollars SELLING DRUGS?
Just a thought: how much does race factor into the bonds equation, if any? Bonds relationship with the media and the fans has been at best strained and he is viewed by many as being egotistical and temperamental. Thus, there has been a love--hate relationship with Bonds throughout his career even before he started breaking high profile records. This writer does not view many athlete worthy to be looked upon as role models but they do have a responsibility to be good public stewards and to accept the fact that their high profile images lends itself to children idolizing the public persona being advertised.
If our society is going to be elevated, then cheating, dishonesty, corruption, etc., can not be tolerated nor condone above morality and ethical behavior. No, one should be above this standard including Barry Bonds, but we all have our own moral compasses and this is what makes the Barry Bonds issue both intriguing and debatable.

THE MONEY CHANGERS: THE FEDERAL RESERVE, ROBBERY BY DECEIT
THE MONEY CHANGERS: THE FEDERAL RESERVE, ROBBERY BY DECEIT” By FAHIM A. KNIGHT
The entire planet has been shammed by a minority 10% of the population who are far worst than Frank James and Jesse James two “infamous” bank robbers and outlaws or any other criminals we can name in world history, but at least we understood these stickup boys made it known to the victims that they were out to steal the money. They left no doubt their motive was strong arm robbery. The Federal Reserve System is truly a shadow government that operates outside the legal jurisdictional, democratic and Constitutional parameter upon which America was founded. The citizenry of this nation should be up in arms and outraged that this cartel of twelve Central Banks (that function invisible without boundaries) which are privately owned with no federal United States affiliation. This illegal cartel has the authority (power) to determine national, and international currencies values and ultimately the entire world is under their pulse and dictates. (Reference: “The World Order: It Will Change the Way You live” by Pat Roberson).
These money moguls have two motivations—profit and greed at the expense of the masses of the people that are viewed by them, as mere cannon fodder. Ralph Epperson in his book titled, “The New World Order” stated, “The use of secrecy to conceal thoughts from certain of the members of an organization or from the public is the device of those have something to hide. That something is so horrible, so terrible, that knowledge of that secret must be kept from those would have the most to lose by knowledge of that secret.” (Reference: “The New World Order” by Ralph Epperson).
On May 23, 1933, Congressman, Louis T. McFadden, brought formal charges against the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank system, The Controller of the Currency and the Secretary of United States Treasury for numerous criminal acts, including but not limited to, CONSPIRACY, FRAUD, UNLAWFUL CONVERSION, AND TREASON. The petition for Articles of Impeachment was thereafter referred to the Judiciary Committee and has YET TO BE ACTED ON.
Former Congress McFadden stated, "This evil institution has impoverished and ruined the people of these United States, has bankrupted itself, and has practically bankrupted our Government. It has done this through the defects of the law under which it operates, through the maladministration of that law by the Fed and through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it. Some people who think that the Federal Reserve Banks United States Government institutions. They are private monopolies which prey upon the people of these United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and rich and predatory money lender. In that dark crew of financial pirates there are those who would cut a man's throat to get a dollar out of his pocket; there are those who send money into states to buy votes to control our legislatures; there are those who maintain International propaganda for the purpose of deceiving us into granting of new concessions which will permit them to cover up their past misdeeds and set again in motion their gigantic train of crime”. (Reference: Congressional Records May 23, 1933 Remarks by Representative Louis T. Mc Fadden).
There are present day members of the United States Congress who know that the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Reserve Act are illegal and unconstitutional, but none of them dare to speak out nor put forth a bill on the floor of congress to eradicate this unlawful cartel that has seize control over the United States monetary system because it would prove to be political suicide to take on Paul Volcker Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and Federal Reserve Chairman, Ben Bernanke, two chief front men for the MONEY CHANGERS.
The silence of our government relative to the Federal Reserve is clear indication that our leaders are in complicit either with the MONEY CHANGERS or are silent (which makes them co-conspirators) due to the OATHS that many of them have taking to protect and defend the Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission, Bildaberger, etc., which the majority of our governmental officials are card carrying members and you can not decode the MONEY CHANGERS without at least mentioning and understanding the relationship high finance has with these three organizations and a number of others like it, throughout the world. This has been a consistent theme in my last two articles titled, “The Hidden Hand and their Quest for World Domination” and “Who Rules America and Why do They Hide?” The best analogy is like hand (MONEY CHANGERS) and glove (Clandestine Brotherhood). (Reference: Conspirators’ Hierarchy: The Story of the Committee of 300” by John Coleman).
Carroll Quigley in his monumental book titled, “Tragedy and Hope” stated, “It was group of people, whose wealth and influence so exceeded their experience and understanding, who provided much of the framework of influence which the communist sympathizers and fellow travelers took over the United States in the 1930’s. It must be recognized that the power that these energetic left-wingers exercise was never their own power or communist power but was ultimately the power of the international financial coterie.”
This writer does not know who the terrorist are (well I am intelligent enough to know that is not the Islamic fundamentalist) and those that are labeled as such; perhaps received this label from those who actually orchestrated the 9-11 incident. Most people have been duped and deceived into believing that Osama Bin Laden and the Islamic fundamentalist were the "terrorist" and had no idea the MONEY CHANGERS are those who shape and mold public opinion (how we think is systematically devised by them) .
The 9-11 deception had multi-objectives, but it’s just wishful thinking to believe that most people in the United States and the world understood and recognized that the true "terrorist" had many disguises and we had been take in by master conmen. Thus, the MONEY CHANGERS uses powerful High Degree Freemasonry type organizations such as: Order of Illuminati, House of Rothschild, Skull and Bones, Anglo American Establishment, Priory of Sion, Council on Foreign Relations, Club of Rome, Trilateral Commission, etc., they serve as the political brokers for the MONEY CHANGERS. In addition, the Council on Foreign Relations is the most powerful organization in the United States and arguably in the world. (Reference: “None Dare Call it Conspiracy” by Gary Allen & Larry Abraham.
They used the September 11, 2001 incident to dismantle the financial accumulation of wealth that Arab Muslims had acquired and dispersed in foreign European Banks (many of these so-called Muslims were participating in a financial arena—money changing which was clearly anti-Islam). Furthermore, in many cases, after falsely labeling the nation and/or the personal depositor as being linked to terrorism, it made them easy targets of U.S. scrutiny and under the United States Patriot Act and the Military Commission Act. The MONEY CHANGERS have confiscated from allege Muslim terrorist billions of dollars and justified their rogue actions in name of so-called fighting terrorism and the MONEY CHANGERS were steadily filling their financial coffers with so-called terrorist money that was dripping in blood.
The United States Government do not have to even prove such allegations in order freeze or confiscate one’s currency, it only requires the cabal to utter one word, terrorism. But the term "blood money” which was being applied to the Arab/Muslims/Islam decoys as "terrorist" and their money was characterized by the cabal as "blood money" ,but that did not curtail the MONEY CHANGERS for committing thievery by deception. However, Bush and boys would use the 9-11 hoax to rearrange the World and with the passing of the United States Patriot Act and Military Commission Act which gave them an official national and international license to freeze (STEAL) innocent individuals and nations money that had been held in United States, Canadian, United Kingdom, French, Hong Kong, South African, Israeli, Japan, etc., banks and no one would question their actions and motives. This writer suspects that Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) does not cover bank funds that were stolen by the MONEY CHANGERS from allege “terrorist”.
The Swiss Banks are havens and serve as THE SECRETS OF THE TEMPLES (many of the MONEY CHANGERS secret meetings take place in Zurich, Switzerland) are controlled by the real terrorist, the Power Elite---David Rockefeller, Harry Oppenheimer, Baron Eric de Rothschild, Karl von Habsburg, Juan Carlos, Edgar M. Bronfman, Sr., Lord Peter Carrington who do not give a damn about 9-11 and/or any other world event they have orchestrated. PROFIT, PROFIT, PROFIT.
Mullins in “The Secret of the Federal Reserve” asked perhaps one the most essential questions, Who own the stock of the Federal Reserve Banks. “The dynastic families of the ruling World Order, internationalist who are loyal to no race, religion, or nation. They are families such as the Rothschilds, the Warburgs, the Schiffs, the Rockerfellers, the Harrimans, the Morgans and others known as the elite, or the big rich.”
But above named MONEY CHANGERS have manipulated humanity by luring them to sleep with false concepts, deceit, treachery and bogus information in order to reign without opposition from the hoodwinked and misinformed masses who have no idea, they are pawns in the game. The MONEY CHANGERS crime is thievery by deception.
{Alan} “Greenspan represented the unbroken line of control of the Federal Reserve Systems by the firms represented at the secret meeting on Jekyll Island in 1910, where Henry P. Davidson, right-hand man of J.P. Morgan, was a key figure in the drafting of the Federal Reserve Act. Within days of taking over as chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, Greenspan immediately raised interest rate on Sept. 4, 1987, the first such increase in three years of general prosperity, and precipitated the stock market crash of Oct., 1987, Black Monday, when the Dow Jones average plunged 508 points. Under Greenspan’s direction, the Federal Reserve Board has steadily nudged the United States deeper and deeper into recession, without word of criticism from the complacent members in Congress”.
These same MONEY CHANGERS are constantly feeding the American people a large dose of political propaganda relative to Iran, in the same manner of how they lied about Iraq possessing weapons of mass destruction---George Bush, Dick Chaney, Colin Powell, Donald Rumsfield, George Tenet, Paul Bremer, Paul Wolfowitz, Tom Ridge, etc. They used smoking mirrors and “tricknology” to sway the American people and the world in to believing that Hussein posed an imminent danger to western democracy and as he was being falsely accused of state sponsor terrorism; moreover, of course this intelligence was created by the Central Intelligence Agency.
Although, there was no proven or credible intelligence that linked Hussein to Osama Bin Laden’s Al-Qaeda movement or to any other so-called “terrorist cell”, it did not matter Bush was advocating (or should I say given orders) war for the warmongers and MONEY CHANGERS. The United States foreign policy in Iraq was centered on Oil, in which the MONEY CHANGERS imposed their military will and now are receiving huge financial dividends. They stole the second largest Oil Reserve in the world; yet, how does one account for the skyrocketing fuel prices plaguing the west? The occupation and colonization of Iraq, as well as the murder of over 1 million Iraqi’s citizens is a criminal act. Who will charge President George Bush with war crimes?
Iran is another Oil wealthy Islamic State and its President Mahmoud Ahamadinejad has been critical of United States Foreign policy in the Middle East region in particular on the Palestinian—Israeli conflict (Reference: “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” by Jimmy Carter) and State Department, CIA, NSA, Homeland Security, etc. via the media is creating false propaganda and inciting the ignorant American masses to view Iran as a threat to United States National Security.
Western media makes claim that President Ahmadinejad called into session on December 11 and 12, 2006, a two day Holocaust Conference in Tehran, Iran where he and the other presenters were accused of advocating anti-Semitism at the highest level and since that conference the powerful Israeli Lobby has used its influence in the United States Congress to isolate Iran and to impose economic sanctions against a segment of the Iranian military (Elite Iranian Revolutionary Guards). Some would argue that it is Zionist influence that guide U.S. Foreign Policy and will perhaps lead this nation in to another war, with the benefactors being the MONEY CHANGERS.
President Lee Bollinger of Columbia University under much opposition and criticism stood by the university’s invitation to allow President Ahmadinejad to speak at this prestigious Ivy League school on September 24, 2007. Bollinger took on President Ahmadinejad and it was evident that Bollinger was not an intellectual match for President Ahmadinejad; in fact, George Bush himself and all of the United States Congresspersons are no match for Ahmadinejad because he stands on truth and American politicians say and do what is politically expedient.
But when the paymasters gives their puppets orders, it is non-negotiable, they have an obligation to protect and defend the MONEY CHANGERS at all cost (no pun intended). President Ahmadinejad was in town (New York City) attending the 62nd session of the United Nations General Assembly and he made a formal request to the United States Government to lay a reef at ground zero, as a gesture of respect and in the spirit of humanity as a Head of State, but the low level operatives denied the request; perhaps at the instigation of those who rule America. President Ahmadinejad will now serve as the litmus test for the new would-be servant that in 2008 will wear the title president of the United States of America and the world.
The United States has had a political gripe with Iran since 1979 Iranian Hostage Crisis and the coming of power of Ayatollah Khomeini who kicked the seven oil sisters out of Iran and instituted an Islamic theocracy and more importantly nationalized the Oil. The MONEY CHANGERS have never forgiving Iran for interfering with their huge oil profits and now are creating an illusion that Iran’s so-called quest to attain nuclear capability should be justification to declare war against the nation of Iran. But actually these vipers want control of the Iranian Oil fields and to further enrich these invisible dynastic families. (Reference: “Metal Men: Marc Rich and the 10 Billion Dollar Scam” by A. Craig Copetas).
William Cooper in his book titled, “Behold a Pale Horse” stated, “What Mr. Rothschild had discovered was the basic principle of power, influence, and control over people as applied to economics. That principle is "when you assume the appearance of power, people soon give it to you." Mr. Rothschild had discovered that currency or deposit loan accounts had the required appearance of power that could be used to INDUCE PEOPLE [We emphasis] (inductance, with people corresponding to a mag¬netic field) into surrendering their real wealth in exchange for a promise of greater wealth (instead of real compensation). They would put up real collateral in exchange for a loan of promissory notes. Mr. Rothschild found that he could issue more notes than he had backing for, so long as he had someone's stock of gold as a persuader to show to his customers”.
Cooper goes on to state, “Mr. Rothschild loaned his promissory notes to individuals and to governments. These would create overconfidence. Then he would make money scarce, tighten control of the system, and collect the collateral through the obligation of contracts. The cycle was then repeated. These pressures could be used to ignite a war. Then he would control the avail¬ability of currency to determine who would win the war. That government which agreed to give him control of its economic system got his support”. (Reference: “Behold A Pale Horse” by William Cooper).
The uninformed masses would vehemently contest and oppose any notion that their exist an invisible government that operates outside laws, rules, jurisdictions, national and international constitutions, etc., and is cloak with the utmost sovereignty. They are only motivated by power and money (finance) and have covertly enslaved humanity by driving them to DEBT and modern day servitude. Black’s Law Dictionary defines money as being “the medium of exchange authorized or adopted by a government as part of its currency {coins and currency are money}. Assets that can be easily converted to cash…real money {is} money that has metallic or other intrinsic value, as distinguished from paper currency, checks and drafts”. Thus, keep the above point in mind, as this writer works to decode, unravel, disentangle, decipher, elucidate, etc., the money trail and how the MONEY CHANGERS duped us and has robbed the United States Government and its people blind. (Reference: “Black’s Law Dictionary; 7 edition; Edited by Bryan A. Garner).
This writer ordinarily do not make it a habit of quoting religious texts, but studying the Bible, Jesus the Christ over 2000 years ago acknowledge, exposed, condemned and chased the MONEY CHANGERS out of the Synagogue for he did not desire to have their corruptible influence and spirit in the sacred Temple.
The Bible stated, “Jesus went to Jerusalem; and found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting. And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers money and overthrew the tables.” Although, Jesus had exposed the MONEY CHANGERS, they began to put on many disguises and would ultimately work under a cover of darkness. They have infiltrated every nation both past and present financial institutions and economies with one objective which to become the financial dictators and tyrants over humanity’s wealth.
These sovereign gods throughout history formulated creeds, oaths, rituals, and sacrament rites to ensure concealment, secrecy, confidentiality, etc., equivalent to Freemasonry type organizations and many cases Freemasonry acts as a front for the sovereign gods . The book of Ephesians in the Bible stated, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against PRINCIPALITIES, AGAINST POWERS, AGAINST THE RULERS OF THE DARKNESS OF THIS WORLD, AGAINST SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS IN HIGH PLACES.” (Reference: “Turning The Key: Rituals of Freemasonry Revealed” by Robert Lomas and “The Hiram Key: Pharaohs, Freemasonry, and the Discovery of the Secret Scrolls of Jesus” by Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas).
The American citizens, in particular and the world in general, have the slightest clue or idea that today’s money has no value and the Federal Reserve System that was established in 1913, along with Internal Revenue Service (IRS) ensured this reality by putting the final touches on this financial coup d'état on behalf of the international private bankers who found a way to circumvent the United States Constitution by concocting policy and influencing legislation to position themselves as the LORDS OF MONEY AND FINANCE.
In the book titled, “The Biggest Secret” by David Icke he stated, “When it came to power, Roosevelt pulled off one of the biggest thefts in human history when he passed laws forcing the American people to hand over all their gold to the government in return for worthless pieces of paper known as Federal Reserve banknotes. This was necessary, he said, to solve the dire economic problems. Soon afterwards, with the American economy now completely under brotherhood control, Roosevelt put their symbol, the pyramid and the all seeing eye, on the dollar bill. He was saying to the American people: ‘Gotch-yer’ “
In his book titled, “The Synagogue of Satan” the author Ashahed Muhammad stated, “It's enough to say that two German Jews, Paul and Felix Warburg, and the international bankers of Europe, wined and dined a Senator, named Nelson Aldrich who was the maternal grandfather of Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller and they wined and dined him for two years, showing him the central banks of Europe. Senator Aldrich came back to America and was given the job of being a part of the national study of the national monetary system. Nelson Aldrich with Paul Warburg had a secret meeting on Jekyll Island, off the coast of Georgia. And in that secret meeting, what came out of it was the basis of the Federal Reserve Act”. (Reference: “The Synagogue of Satan” by Ashahed M. Muhammad).
Perhaps it is mere coincidental or maybe not, but this writer could not overlook nor ignore the Jewish influence that seems to permeate this discussion of the Federal Reserve, High Finance, and the MONEY CHANGERS. This writer abhors and detest anti-Semitism, as well as any other form of racism and maybe we can distinguish this ever occurring trend as Zionism being practiced by a minority, but powerful sector of the Jewish Elite. The credibility of the “Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion” or Henry Ford’s dissertation titled, “The International Jew”, it is not for me to make the case of the truth or the falsity relative to a conspiratorial Jewish cabal. But as a social scientist, we are required to make every attempt to answer the six basic questions of who, what, where, when, why and how; moreover, allow the research to be guided by the course of the facts and to serve as the moral compass in our investigation. (Reference: “The International Jew” by Henry Ford).
The MONEY CHANGERS robbed Fort Knox’s Kentucky of 60 years worth of gold and silver which was financial property belonging to the United States Treasury Department and ultimately to the American people (the every day taxpayers). Moreover, according to Encyclopedia Wikipedia. It stated, “The United States Bullion Depository holds approximately 4,570 tons of gold bullion (147.3 million ounces [1]). This is exceeded in the United States only by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York's underground vault in Manhattan, which holds approximately 5,000 tons of gold in trust for many foreign nations, central banks and official international organizations. Some argue that the MONEY CHANGERS gave President Lyndon Johnson orders to move Fort Knox’s gold to London. Icke goes on to state, “The membership of the Royal Institute of International Affairs remains a secret, but it also includes people of the same positions and background in the United Kingdom and I stress the American CFR is subordinate to, and takes orders from, the Royal Institute in London.”
All the United States Tender (U.S. Dollars) use to be backed by the precious metals of gold and silver. Eustace Mullins stated, “Federal Reserve notes actually promissory notes, promise to pay, rather than what we traditionally consider money. They are interest bearing notes issued against interest bearing government bonds, paper issued with nothing but paper backing, which is known as fiat money, because it has only the fiat of the issuer to guarantee these notes.”
The Federal Reserve gets its money through "kiting". Kiting is defined as "getting money or credit by using bad checks". The U.S. Bureau of Engraving prints those Federal Notes (legal tender) which you carry. The Federal Reserve is allowed to buy these notes for one cent each! Using notes that cost them one cent, they buy millions of dollars in U.S. interest-bearing bonds. The bonds are deposited with the Comptroller of the Currency as security. The money you pay as federal income tax redeems (pays oft) the U.S. bonds. IRS Code, title 26 USCA states the
income tax goes to redeem Federal Reserve.
There are currently two kinds of money in circulation: genuine silver coin minted before 1964 AD., and coins which do not contain silver. Yet the Constitution states in Article I, section 10 that "No state shall make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts". Congress does not have the power to coin money, Article 1, section 8, but since it can't make anything but gold and silver coins a ' tender for debts, nothing printed on paper is by Constitutional definition and federal law, legal tender or lawful money. This does not mean that personal checks, money orders and Federal Reserve kite notes are illegal. They are legal as long as they are convertible into lawful money (gold and silver). Yet, there is no law that says you must accept them if they are not redeemable in gold or silver coins. Therefore, any paper currency, not redeemable for lawful money at face value is not money. It's just as legal to use seashells, or stones as money as it is to use un-backed paper money! (Reference: “Leviathan 666” by Malachi Z. York).
The Central Banks and their financial emperors hijacked the United States currency ninety (94) years ago and the Federal Reserve System (a private group of Central Banks) were giving a license to print and issue United States currency at their discretion. The identities of the owners (CEO) of the Central Banks have remained a secret and will never be disclosed to the public.
This writer wonders do the American people asked themselves the questions, who do we owe these nine (9) trillion dollars, as far as addressing the national debt? They even give a figure that in order to resolve this debt each American would have to pay $29,944.72 Why do not these Central Bank emperors reveal themselves to the public? We are (meaning the entire world) in debt to the private international bankers who lends (sell and give orders on how much currency to print) money to the Federal Reserve at astronomical interest rates, which U.S. currency has no collateral backing as far as gold and silver. We should be preparing ourselves for one day the Central Banks/Money Changers are going call the debt in and it is going to be every man for himself and God for us all.
This is a list of Banking Institutions (Central Banks) that ruled the entire planet: 1. Rothschild Bank of London, Rothschild Bank of Berlin, 2. Chase Manhattan Bank of New York (Rockefeller)Chase National bank of New York (Rockefeller). 3. First National Bank of New York. 5. Hanover National Bank of New York. 6. Goldman Sachs of New York. 7. Kuhn Loeb Bank of New York. 8. Lehman Brothers of New York. 9. Warburg Bank of Hamburg Warburg Bank of Amsterdam. 10. Lazard Brothers of Paris. 11. Israel Moses Seif Banks of Italy. 12. JP Morgan.
The Federal Reserve disguises itself as governmental agency that is operated and control under the auspices of the Executive Branch of government with oversight from the United States Congress (representatives of the American people), but in reality, the head of these Central Banks gives orders to the president and congress and answer to no one and the American taxpayers have been left holding the bag since 1913. The Constitution of the United States government stated, "Congress shall have the power to coin money and regulate the value thereof”. The regulation of money was not to fall into private hands for their own manipulation. This stipulation came about because wealthy bankers (many of whom are from foreign countries) have brought America deliberately into wars and depressions by the manipulation of currency and credit for their profit.
The U.S. dollar has become a medium of exchange with no value, it is only kept a float by strong United States political rhetoric and by the grace of the invisible MONEY CHANGERS who determines or should this writer say predetermine what the national and international stock markets success and failures are going to be. Thus, they give value to the, U.S. dollar, Yen, Rand, Hong Kong Dollar, CAD, Paso, Euro, Yuan, Frankfurt, etc., and determine the United States Stock Exchange trade indexes.
The establishment of the Federal Reserve System is unconstitutional and perhaps was the single most criminal act along with Federal Income Tax rules which both was found in 1913. Also, this writer has to rank the passing of the United States Patriot Act on the same plateau and equal in criminal intent, as was the establishment of the Federal Reserve. The United States people have handed over its monetary system to an Elite circle of Robber Barons and have compromised the sacred document known as the United States Constitution.
Eustace Mullins in his book titled, “The Secrets of the Federal Reserve: The London Connection” stated, “ The fact is that the government has never owned a single share Federal Reserve Bank stock. This charade stems from the fact that the. President of the United States appoints the Governors of the Federal Reserve Board, who are then confirmed by the Senate. The secret author of the Act banker Paul Warburg, a representative of the Rothschild bank, coined the name "Federal" from thin air for the Act, which he wrote to achieve two of his pet aspirations, an "elastic currency", read (rubber check), and to facilitate trading in acceptances, international trade credits. Warburg founder and president of the International Acceptance Corporation and made billions in profits by trading in this commercial paper. Sec. 7 of Federal Reserve Act provides "Federal reserve banks, including the capital and surplus therein, and income derived there from, shall be exempt from Federal, state and local taxation, except taxes on real estate."
This is the third article that this writer has written relative to revealing and exposing this power Elite; the first article was titled, “Who Rule America and Why Do They Hide”, second article was titled, “The Hidden Hand and Their Quest For World Domination” and this third article titled, “The Money Changers: The Federal Reserve, Robbery by Deceit”. This might be my final article in this series, but this is not to suggest by any stretch that we have exhausted this subject. But who knows there is still such much that needs to be uncovered and it would be considered derelict in my duty to the people, if this writer did not continue to use his pen to aid humanity in our quest for freedom, justice and equality.

The entire planet has been shammed by a minority 10% of the population who are far worst than Frank James and Jesse James two “infamous” bank robbers and outlaws or any other criminals we can name in world history, but at least we understood these stickup boys made it known to the victims that they were out to steal the money. They left no doubt their motive was strong arm robbery. The Federal Reserve System is truly a shadow government that operates outside the legal jurisdictional, democratic and Constitutional parameter upon which America was founded. The citizenry of this nation should be up in arms and outraged that this cartel of twelve Central Banks (that function invisible without boundaries) which are privately owned with no federal United States affiliation. This illegal cartel has the authority (power) to determine national, and international currencies values and ultimately the entire world is under their pulse and dictates. (Reference: “The World Order: It Will Change the Way You live” by Pat Roberson).
These money moguls have two motivations—profit and greed at the expense of the masses of the people that are viewed by them, as mere cannon fodder. Ralph Epperson in his book titled, “The New World Order” stated, “The use of secrecy to conceal thoughts from certain of the members of an organization or from the public is the device of those have something to hide. That something is so horrible, so terrible, that knowledge of that secret must be kept from those would have the most to lose by knowledge of that secret.” (Reference: “The New World Order” by Ralph Epperson).
On May 23, 1933, Congressman, Louis T. McFadden, brought formal charges against the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank system, The Controller of the Currency and the Secretary of United States Treasury for numerous criminal acts, including but not limited to, CONSPIRACY, FRAUD, UNLAWFUL CONVERSION, AND TREASON. The petition for Articles of Impeachment was thereafter referred to the Judiciary Committee and has YET TO BE ACTED ON.
Former Congress McFadden stated, "This evil institution has impoverished and ruined the people of these United States, has bankrupted itself, and has practically bankrupted our Government. It has done this through the defects of the law under which it operates, through the maladministration of that law by the Fed and through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it. Some people who think that the Federal Reserve Banks United States Government institutions. They are private monopolies which prey upon the people of these United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and rich and predatory money lender. In that dark crew of financial pirates there are those who would cut a man's throat to get a dollar out of his pocket; there are those who send money into states to buy votes to control our legislatures; there are those who maintain International propaganda for the purpose of deceiving us into granting of new concessions which will permit them to cover up their past misdeeds and set again in motion their gigantic train of crime”. (Reference: Congressional Records May 23, 1933 Remarks by Representative Louis T. Mc Fadden).
There are present day members of the United States Congress who know that the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Reserve Act are illegal and unconstitutional, but none of them dare to speak out nor put forth a bill on the floor of congress to eradicate this unlawful cartel that has seize control over the United States monetary system because it would prove to be political suicide to take on Paul Volcker Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and Federal Reserve Chairman, Ben Bernanke, two chief front men for the MONEY CHANGERS.
The silence of our government relative to the Federal Reserve is clear indication that our leaders are in complicit either with the MONEY CHANGERS or are silent (which makes them co-conspirators) due to the OATHS that many of them have taking to protect and defend the Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission, Bildaberger, etc., which the majority of our governmental officials are card carrying members and you can not decode the MONEY CHANGERS without at least mentioning and understanding the relationship high finance has with these three organizations and a number of others like it, throughout the world. This has been a consistent theme in my last two articles titled, “The Hidden Hand and their Quest for World Domination” and “Who Rules America and Why do They Hide?” The best analogy is like hand (MONEY CHANGERS) and glove (Clandestine Brotherhood). (Reference: Conspirators’ Hierarchy: The Story of the Committee of 300” by John Coleman).
Carroll Quigley in his monumental book titled, “Tragedy and Hope” stated, “It was group of people, whose wealth and influence so exceeded their experience and understanding, who provided much of the framework of influence which the communist sympathizers and fellow travelers took over the United States in the 1930’s. It must be recognized that the power that these energetic left-wingers exercise was never their own power or communist power but was ultimately the power of the international financial coterie.”
This writer does not know who the terrorist are (well I am intelligent enough to know that is not the Islamic fundamentalist) and those that are labeled as such; perhaps received this label from those who actually orchestrated the 9-11 incident. Most people have been duped and deceived into believing that Osama Bin Laden and the Islamic fundamentalist were the "terrorist" and had no idea the MONEY CHANGERS are those who shape and mold public opinion (how we think is systematically devised by them) .
The 9-11 deception had multi-objectives, but it’s just wishful thinking to believe that most people in the United States and the world understood and recognized that the true "terrorist" had many disguises and we had been take in by master conmen. Thus, the MONEY CHANGERS uses powerful High Degree Freemasonry type organizations such as: Order of Illuminati, House of Rothschild, Skull and Bones, Anglo American Establishment, Priory of Sion, Council on Foreign Relations, Club of Rome, Trilateral Commission, etc., they serve as the political brokers for the MONEY CHANGERS. In addition, the Council on Foreign Relations is the most powerful organization in the United States and arguably in the world. (Reference: “None Dare Call it Conspiracy” by Gary Allen & Larry Abraham.
They used the September 11, 2001 incident to dismantle the financial accumulation of wealth that Arab Muslims had acquired and dispersed in foreign European Banks (many of these so-called Muslims were participating in a financial arena—money changing which was clearly anti-Islam). Furthermore, in many cases, after falsely labeling the nation and/or the personal depositor as being linked to terrorism, it made them easy targets of U.S. scrutiny and under the United States Patriot Act and the Military Commission Act. The MONEY CHANGERS have confiscated from allege Muslim terrorist billions of dollars and justified their rogue actions in name of so-called fighting terrorism and the MONEY CHANGERS were steadily filling their financial coffers with so-called terrorist money that was dripping in blood.
The United States Government do not have to even prove such allegations in order freeze or confiscate one’s currency, it only requires the cabal to utter one word, terrorism. But the term "blood money” which was being applied to the Arab/Muslims/Islam decoys as "terrorist" and their money was characterized by the cabal as "blood money" ,but that did not curtail the MONEY CHANGERS for committing thievery by deception. However, Bush and boys would use the 9-11 hoax to rearrange the World and with the passing of the United States Patriot Act and Military Commission Act which gave them an official national and international license to freeze (STEAL) innocent individuals and nations money that had been held in United States, Canadian, United Kingdom, French, Hong Kong, South African, Israeli, Japan, etc., banks and no one would question their actions and motives. This writer suspects that Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) does not cover bank funds that were stolen by the MONEY CHANGERS from allege “terrorist”.
The Swiss Banks are havens and serve as THE SECRETS OF THE TEMPLES (many of the MONEY CHANGERS secret meetings take place in Zurich, Switzerland) are controlled by the real terrorist, the Power Elite---David Rockefeller, Harry Oppenheimer, Baron Eric de Rothschild, Karl von Habsburg, Juan Carlos, Edgar M. Bronfman, Sr., Lord Peter Carrington who do not give a damn about 9-11 and/or any other world event they have orchestrated. PROFIT, PROFIT, PROFIT.
Mullins in “The Secret of the Federal Reserve” asked perhaps one the most essential questions, Who own the stock of the Federal Reserve Banks. “The dynastic families of the ruling World Order, internationalist who are loyal to no race, religion, or nation. They are families such as the Rothschilds, the Warburgs, the Schiffs, the Rockerfellers, the Harrimans, the Morgans and others known as the elite, or the big rich.”
But above named MONEY CHANGERS have manipulated humanity by luring them to sleep with false concepts, deceit, treachery and bogus information in order to reign without opposition from the hoodwinked and misinformed masses who have no idea, they are pawns in the game. The MONEY CHANGERS crime is thievery by deception.

These same MONEY CHANGERS are constantly feeding the American people a large dose of political propaganda relative to Iran, in the same manner of how they lied about Iraq possessing weapons of mass destruction---George Bush, Dick Chaney, Colin Powell, Donald Rumsfield, George Tenet, Paul Bremer, Paul Wolfowitz, Tom Ridge, etc. They used smoking mirrors and “tricknology” to sway the American people and the world in to believing that Hussein posed an imminent danger to western democracy and as he was being falsely accused of state sponsor terrorism; moreover, of course this intelligence was created by the Central Intelligence Agency.

Iran is another Oil wealthy Islamic State and its President Mahmoud Ahamadinejad has been critical of United States Foreign policy in the Middle East region in particular on the Palestinian—Israeli conflict (Reference: “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” by Jimmy Carter) and State Department, CIA, NSA, Homeland Security, etc. via the media is creating false propaganda and inciting the ignorant American masses to view Iran as a threat to United States National Security.
Western media makes claim that President Ahmadinejad called into session on December 11 and 12, 2006, a two day Holocaust Conference in Tehran, Iran where he and the other presenters were accused of advocating anti-Semitism at the highest level and since that conference the powerful Israeli Lobby has used its influence in the United States Congress to isolate Iran and to impose economic sanctions against a segment of the Iranian military (Elite Iranian Revolutionary Guards). Some would argue that it is Zionist influence that guide U.S. Foreign Policy and will perhaps lead this nation in to another war, with the benefactors being the MONEY CHANGERS.

President Ahmadinejad will now serve as the litmus test for the new would-be servant that in 2008 will wear the title president of the United States of America and the world.
The United States has had a political gripe with Iran since 1979 Iranian Hostage Crisis and the coming of power of Ayatollah Khomeini who kicked the seven oil sisters out of Iran and instituted an Islamic theocracy and more importantly nationalized the Oil. The MONEY CHANGERS have never forgiving Iran for interfering with their huge oil profits and now are creating an illusion that Iran’s so-called quest to attain nuclear capability should be justification to declare war against the nation of Iran. But actually these vipers want control of the Iranian Oil fields and to further enrich these invisible dynastic families. (Reference: “Metal Men: Marc Rich and the 10 Billion Dollar Scam” by A. Craig Copetas).
William Cooper in his book titled, “Behold a Pale Horse” stated, “What Mr. Rothschild had discovered was the basic principle of power, influence, and control over people as applied to economics. That principle is "when you assume the appearance of power, people soon give it to you." Mr. Rothschild had discovered that currency or deposit loan accounts had the required appearance of power that could be used to INDUCE PEOPLE [We emphasis] (inductance, with people corresponding to a mag¬netic field) into surrendering their real wealth in exchange for a promise of greater wealth (instead of real compensation). They would put up real collateral in exchange for a loan of promissory notes. Mr. Rothschild found that he could issue more notes than he had backing for, so long as he had someone's stock of gold as a persuader to show to his customers”.
Cooper goes on to state, “Mr. Rothschild loaned his promissory notes to individuals and to governments. These would create overconfidence. Then he would make money scarce, tighten control of the system, and collect the collateral through the obligation of contracts. The cycle was then repeated. These pressures could be used to ignite a war. Then he would control the avail¬ability of currency to determine who would win the war. That government which agreed to give him control of its economic system got his support”. (Reference: “Behold A Pale Horse” by William Cooper).
The uninformed masses would vehemently contest and oppose any notion that their exist an invisible government that operates outside laws, rules, jurisdictions, national and international constitutions, etc., and is cloak with the utmost sovereignty. They are only motivated by power and money (finance) and have covertly enslaved humanity by driving them to DEBT and modern day servitude. Black’s Law Dictionary defines money as being “the medium of exchange authorized or adopted by a government as part of its currency {coins and currency are money}. Assets that can be easily converted to cash…real money {is} money that has metallic or other intrinsic value, as distinguished from paper currency, checks and drafts”. Thus, keep the above point in mind, as this writer works to decode, unravel, disentangle, decipher, elucidate, etc., the money trail and how the MONEY CHANGERS duped us and has robbed the United States Government and its people blind. (Reference: “Black’s Law Dictionary; 7 edition; Edited by Bryan A. Garner).
This writer ordinarily do not make it a habit of quoting religious texts, but studying the Bible, Jesus the Christ over 2000 years ago acknowledge, exposed, condemned and chased the MONEY CHANGERS out of the Synagogue for he did not desire to have their corruptible influence and spirit in the sacred Temple.
The Bible stated, “Jesus went to Jerusalem; and found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting. And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers money and overthrew the tables.” Although, Jesus had exposed the MONEY CHANGERS, they began to put on many disguises and would ultimately work under a cover of darkness. They have infiltrated every nation both past and present financial institutions and economies with one objective which to become the financial dictators and tyrants over humanity’s wealth.
These sovereign gods throughout history formulated creeds, oaths, rituals, and sacrament rites to ensure concealment, secrecy, confidentiality, etc., equivalent to Freemasonry type organizations and many cases Freemasonry acts as a front for the sovereign gods . The book of Ephesians in the Bible stated, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against PRINCIPALITIES, AGAINST POWERS, AGAINST THE RULERS OF THE DARKNESS OF THIS WORLD, AGAINST SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS IN HIGH PLACES.” (Reference: “Turning The Key: Rituals of Freemasonry Revealed” by Robert Lomas and “The Hiram Key: Pharaohs, Freemasonry, and the Discovery of the Secret Scrolls of Jesus” by Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas).
The American citizens, in particular and the world in general, have the slightest clue or idea that today’s money has no value and the Federal Reserve System that was established in 1913, along with Internal Revenue Service (IRS) ensured this reality by putting the final touches on this financial coup d'état on behalf of the international private bankers who found a way to circumvent the United States Constitution by concocting policy and influencing legislation to position themselves as the LORDS OF MONEY AND FINANCE.
In the book titled, “The Biggest Secret” by David Icke he stated, “When it came to power, Roosevelt pulled off one of the biggest thefts in human history when he passed laws forcing the American people to hand over all their gold to the government in return for worthless pieces of paper known as Federal Reserve banknotes. This was necessary, he said, to solve the dire economic problems. Soon afterwards, with the American economy now completely under brotherhood control, Roosevelt put their symbol, the pyramid and the all seeing eye, on the dollar bill. He was saying to the American people: ‘Gotch-yer’ “
In his book titled, “The Synagogue of Satan” the author Ashahed Muhammad stated, “It's enough to say that two German Jews, Paul and Felix Warburg, and the international bankers of Europe, wined and dined a Senator, named Nelson Aldrich who was the maternal grandfather of Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller and they wined and dined him for two years, showing him the central banks of Europe. Senator Aldrich came back to America and was given the job of being a part of the national study of the national monetary system. Nelson Aldrich with Paul Warburg had a secret meeting on Jekyll Island, off the coast of Georgia. And in that secret meeting, what came out of it was the basis of the Federal Reserve Act”. (Reference: “The Synagogue of Satan” by Ashahed M. Muhammad).
Perhaps it is mere coincidental or maybe not, but this writer could not overlook nor ignore the Jewish influence that seems to permeate this discussion of the Federal Reserve, High Finance, and the MONEY CHANGERS. This writer abhors and detest anti-Semitism, as well as any other form of racism and maybe we can distinguish this ever occurring trend as Zionism being practiced by a minority, but powerful sector of the Jewish Elite. The credibility of the “Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion” or Henry Ford’s dissertation titled, “The International Jew”, it is not for me to make the case of the truth or the falsity relative to a conspiratorial Jewish cabal. But as a social scientist, we are required to make every attempt to answer the six basic questions of who, what, where, when, why and how; moreover, allow the research to be guided by the course of the facts and to serve as the moral compass in our investigation. (Reference: “The International Jew” by Henry Ford).
The MONEY CHANGERS robbed Fort Knox’s Kentucky of 60 years worth of gold and silver which was financial property belonging to the United States Treasury Department and ultimately to the American people (the every day taxpayers). Moreover, according to Encyclopedia Wikipedia. It stated, “The United States Bullion Depository holds approximately 4,570 tons of gold bullion (147.3 million ounces [1]). This is exceeded in the United States only by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York's underground vault in Manhattan, which holds approximately 5,000 tons of gold in trust for many foreign nations, central banks and official international organizations. Some argue that the MONEY CHANGERS gave President Lyndon Johnson orders to move Fort Knox’s gold to London. Icke goes on to state, “The membership of the Royal Institute of International Affairs remains a secret, but it also includes people of the same positions and background in the United Kingdom and I stress the American CFR is subordinate to, and takes orders from, the Royal Institute in London.”
All the United States Tender (U.S. Dollars) use to be backed by the precious metals of gold and silver. Eustace Mullins stated, “Federal Reserve notes actually promissory notes, promise to pay, rather than what we traditionally consider money. They are interest bearing notes issued against interest bearing government bonds, paper issued with nothing but paper backing, which is known as fiat money, because it has only the fiat of the issuer to guarantee these notes.”
The Federal Reserve gets its money through "kiting". Kiting is defined as "getting money or credit by using bad checks". The U.S. Bureau of Engraving prints those Federal Notes (legal tender) which you carry. The Federal Reserve is allowed to buy these notes for one cent each! Using notes that cost them one cent, they buy millions of dollars in U.S. interest-bearing bonds. The bonds are deposited with the Comptroller of the Currency as security. The money you pay as federal income tax redeems (pays oft) the U.S. bonds. IRS Code, title 26 USCA states the
income tax goes to redeem Federal Reserve.
There are currently two kinds of money in circulation: genuine silver coin minted before 1964 AD., and coins which do not contain silver. Yet the Constitution states in Article I, section 10 that "No state shall make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts". Congress does not have the power to coin money, Article 1, section 8, but since it can't make anything but gold and silver coins a ' tender for debts, nothing printed on paper is by Constitutional definition and federal law, legal tender or lawful money. This does not mean that personal checks, money orders and Federal Reserve kite notes are illegal. They are legal as long as they are convertible into lawful money (gold and silver). Yet, there is no law that says you must accept them if they are not redeemable in gold or silver coins. Therefore, any paper currency, not redeemable for lawful money at face value is not money. It's just as legal to use seashells, or stones as money as it is to use un-backed paper money! (Reference: “Leviathan 666” by Malachi Z. York).
The Central Banks and their financial emperors hijacked the United States currency ninety (94) years ago and the Federal Reserve System (a private group of Central Banks) were giving a license to print and issue United States currency at their discretion. The identities of the owners (CEO) of the Central Banks have remained a secret and will never be disclosed to the public.
This writer wonders do the American people asked themselves the questions, who do we owe these nine (9) trillion dollars, as far as addressing the national debt? They even give a figure that in order to resolve this debt each American would have to pay $29,944.72 Why do not these Central Bank emperors reveal themselves to the public? We are (meaning the entire world) in debt to the private international bankers who lends (sell and give orders on how much currency to print) money to the Federal Reserve at astronomical interest rates, which U.S. currency has no collateral backing as far as gold and silver. We should be preparing ourselves for one day the Central Banks/Money Changers are going call the debt in and it is going to be every man for himself and God for us all.
This is a list of Banking Institutions (Central Banks) that ruled the entire planet: 1. Rothschild Bank of London, Rothschild Bank of Berlin, 2. Chase Manhattan Bank of New York (Rockefeller)Chase National bank of New York (Rockefeller). 3. First National Bank of New York. 5. Hanover National Bank of New York. 6. Goldman Sachs of New York. 7. Kuhn Loeb Bank of New York. 8. Lehman Brothers of New York. 9. Warburg Bank of Hamburg Warburg Bank of Amsterdam. 10. Lazard Brothers of Paris. 11. Israel Moses Seif Banks of Italy. 12. JP Morgan.
The Federal Reserve disguises itself as governmental agency that is operated and control under the auspices of the Executive Branch of government with oversight from the United States Congress (representatives of the American people), but in reality, the head of these Central Banks gives orders to the president and congress and answer to no one and the American taxpayers have been left holding the bag since 1913. The Constitution of the United States government stated, "Congress shall have the power to coin money and regulate the value thereof”. The regulation of money was not to fall into private hands for their own manipulation. This stipulation came about because wealthy bankers (many of whom are from foreign countries) have brought America deliberately into wars and depressions by the manipulation of currency and credit for their profit.
The U.S. dollar has become a medium of exchange with no value, it is only kept a float by strong United States political rhetoric and by the grace of the invisible MONEY CHANGERS who determines or should this writer say predetermine what the national and international stock markets success and failures are going to be. Thus, they give value to the, U.S. dollar, Yen, Rand, Hong Kong Dollar, CAD, Paso, Euro, Yuan, Frankfurt, etc., and determine the United States Stock Exchange trade indexes.
The establishment of the Federal Reserve System is unconstitutional and perhaps was the single most criminal act along with Federal Income Tax rules which both was found in 1913. Also, this writer has to rank the passing of the United States Patriot Act on the same plateau and equal in criminal intent, as was the establishment of the Federal Reserve. The United States people have handed over its monetary system to an Elite circle of Robber Barons and have compromised the sacred document known as the United States Constitution.
Eustace Mullins in his book titled, “The Secrets of the Federal Reserve: The London Connection” stated, “ The fact is that the government has never owned a single share Federal Reserve Bank stock. This charade stems from the fact that the. President of the United States appoints the Governors of the Federal Reserve Board, who are then confirmed by the Senate. The secret author of the Act banker Paul Warburg, a representative of the Rothschild bank, coined the name "Federal" from thin air for the Act, which he wrote to achieve two of his pet aspirations, an "elastic currency", read (rubber check), and to facilitate trading in acceptances, international trade credits. Warburg founder and president of the International Acceptance Corporation and made billions in profits by trading in this commercial paper. Sec. 7 of Federal Reserve Act provides "Federal reserve banks, including the capital and surplus therein, and income derived there from, shall be exempt from Federal, state and local taxation, except taxes on real estate."
This is the third article that this writer has written relative to revealing and exposing this power Elite; the first article was titled, “Who Rule America and Why Do They Hide”, second article was titled, “The Hidden Hand and Their Quest For World Domination” and this third article titled, “The Money Changers: The Federal Reserve, Robbery by Deceit”. This might be my final article in this series, but this is not to suggest by any stretch that we have exhausted this subject. But who knows there is still such much that needs to be uncovered and it would be considered derelict in my duty to the people, if this writer did not continue to use his pen to aid humanity in our quest for freedom, justice and equality.
