Question by ……..LIKE A BOSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!: what do you reckon of this article by Henry Makow?
Do Jews Control the World?
October 9, 2007

by Henry Makow Ph.D.

This question is the proverbial elephant in the room, the dysfunction that members of the human family dare not mention.

So when Richard Dawkins recently remarked that the Israel Lobby controls American foreign policy, Daniel Finkelstein, a Jewish editor of the London Times “Comments” section heard Nazi storm troopers banging on his door.

“So Dawkins, a liberal hero, believes, er, that Jews control world power.” Finkelstein sighed. “And, judging from the Guardian, it is now a part of mainstream debate to say so. Perhaps you reckon I am over-reacting, but I am a small bit frightened. All I can manage is, Oh My God.”

Finkelstein’s outburst is ironic. Here is a Jewish opinion gatekeeper, employed by a Jewish press magnate (Rupert Murdoch), shocked at the mention of Jewish power, persuading the public that the very proposition is in terrible taste. He cannot be accused of detachment.

The Times is not just any newspaper. It has been the voice of the British establishment for more than 100 years. Along with Chatham House (the RIIA) and Tavistock, it is a principal instrument of the cabal that governs England and most of the world. That cabal consists of Jewish central bankers and British (European and American) aristocracy united by money, marriage and a belief in the occult (Freemasonry.)

ANTI-SEMITISM

I object to the term “the Jews” when obviously we are talking about very rich and powerful Jews who have intermarried with rich and powerful Gentiles. Sid the tailor does not control the world. I do not control the world.

We are talking about rich Jews who most other Jews wouldn’t even recognize: they are Freemasons. They worship Lucifer and reckon God is evil.

I represent that silent majority of average Jews, who have assimilated, and support the national interest. Rich Jews will want ordinary Jews to take the fall when opposition to their rapacious agenda grows and anti-Semitism increases.

Anti-Semitism never made any headway in Europe in the Nineteenth and early Twentieth Century until rich Jews chose to sponsor it. There is no way Hitler would have come to power without the backing of world finance. Hitler was Time Magazine “Man of the Year” in 1938. Stalin, another Freemason made by the Money Power, took the honor in 1939. Hey let’s have a war!

The central bankers owned I.G. Farben, the backbone of the Nazi war machine. Max Warburg was a Director until 1938. In March 1941 the Warburg family and employees were spirited out of Nazi occupied Holland by the SS. Hitler so despised the Jewish bankers that he had them escorted to safety in a private train.

Assimilated and religious Jews who did not serve the bankers’ interests were the main victims of Nazi persecution. Zionists, on the other hand, were spared. These same Zionists place ordinary Jews on trains to Auschwitz telling them they were being “resettled.”

If the past is a guide, in an economic or social breakdown, the bankers will focus blame on their pawns, Zionists or neo nons, or preferably Jews in general. This is why patriotic Jews must disassociate from the bankers and their minions now.

WHAT IS ANTI-SEMITISM?

Anti-Semitism might be called anti-imperialism. At heart, it is opposition to the plot of the central bankers, based in the City of London, to “gradually absorb the wealth of the world” and establish a masked “world regime” dictatorship.

This involves stupefying and degrading society through faux education, porn and violence; and bankrupting and brutalizing us through war, pandemics and domestic authoritarianism.

It involves destroying “all collective forces except our own” which means destroying all race, religion (God), nation and family. They use social engineering like diversity, feminism, multiculturalism and homosexuality to accomplish these aims. (I like homosexuals & uncommon races; I just don’t reckon they should be used as a weapon.)

The bankers place cooperative Jews in positions of control. The stigma attached to anti-Semitism is a form of mind control used to immunize their agents and agenda against criticism. The Holocaust is implacably used for this purpose. (Anyone who opposes them is a genocidal maniac.)

If we reckon of anti-Semitism in terms of opposition to the bankers’ political and cultural policy rather than to a race, it can be defensible. The key is to distinguish between Jews who advance the New World Order and those who do not.

JEWS ARE THE BIGGEST DUPES

Socialism and Communism are Jewish in origin, membership and character. Throughout the past century, naïve Jews flocked to the Red banner. The clarion call: “Capitalists are rich. Communism will bring equality.”

This clarion call was just bait. The richest people in the world made & financed Communism; their agenda was to get even richer. Socialism is the same thing on a smaller scale, a way of electing their lackeys and incr

Henry Makow is brilliant. There is a very strong difference between between the zionist jews and jewish in general. Zionist are the international bankers hell bent on world dominion. They finance both Hitler and Stalin, both of which murdered Jews (a small sacrifice for the Zionist who required that Israel be customary after the war).

Here’s a link:

What’s fascinating is your mention of IG Farben that was being supplied by American Companies during the war. What a bunch of traitors!

The Kilgore Committee held hearings in 1940s about who might have been supplying Hitler, financing Hitler, what was happening to the treasurers that the Nazis plundered, and more. Much of what was learned (like testimony from the highly respected Russell Nixon) WAS KEPT SECRET UNTIL 1997, kept secret for fifty years.

http://www.copi.com/articles/nazibank.html

Prescott Bush, father of Geo HW Bush and grandfather of Geo W Bush, an Illuminati member through Skull and Bones at Yale University was supplying/financing Hitler, GM was supplying parts for his was machine, chemical companies supplying IG Farben, Henry Ford was helping Hitler, Wall Street was financing Hitler, and Rothschild through their Swiss banks were housing Nazi gold.

This stuff just doesn’t happen — and get hidden — without someone directing the show! Rothschild, Illuminati & Freemasons’ fingerprints are all over this stuff.

As crazy as it sounds, I like Michigan&plot on relocating there September 2008.I am from Chicago&want to be in a city2-4hours from Chicago and that is diverse. 1.What city is this? Kalamazoo doesnt seem to have much diversity or a huge Black population, and Detroit I hear is perilous. 2.What are some diverse suburbs of Detroit&how far are they from downtown? 3.What neighborhoods n the cities of Michigian do you all suggest should I live in?I am Black but I like diversity,I want to live around all races. 4.What are the major hiring companies n Michigan? 5.What are some helpful tips you all have4someone moving to Michigan? 6.Do the cities you recommend have a excellent transportation system (buses&trains)I have a car but its sometimes more efficiant to take public transportation. 7.Where do singles looking to meet someone hang out? 8.Is the cost of living expensive? 9.Where can I get a 2 bedroom apartment in a excellent area for under $ 650? 10.what is the best thing about the city you suggested?
I like Michigan. Every since I was a baby my family would go to St Joseph during the summer and stay on my uncle’s estate. It was gorgeous, we have travelled all over the world for vacation and honestly michigan was my favorite vacation. Then my boyfriend at the time went to Kettering University in Flint, and when he was down at U of I Champaign-Urbana visiting me, I was up there and even though Flint was dirty I still loved it! lol Then his friends would take me to Detroit to hang out and party, they took me to Auburn Hills for a Pistons game, and Holly for a homecooked dinner- it was serenity to me. Thats where my heart and soul is. Thats where I want to be. Thats why I want to go :)

Answer by Mr. Knowledgeable VI
To be honest with you, you should just stay in Chicago and not go to Michigan. Michigan has one of the worst economies in the United States and there are NO JOBS AVAILABLE ANYWHERE and the economy is on decline, plus Michigan RANKS DEAD LAST as the place people want to go to. Also, People who live in Michigan right now want to go out of Michigan because of the poor economy the state is having.

Chicago and the Chicago Metropolitan Area is growing and have excellent diversity. The city could be the possible site of the 2016 Summer Olympic Games and they have a strong economy and is a city that is based off of culture, not off of industry. Chicago also has the best public transportation in the midwest and Chcago is a WORLD CLASS CITY where visitors from all over the world travel come to visit.

Finally, you only live about two hours away from Michigan. You can visit Michigan anytime because Michigan is a fantastic state to visit, just not a excellent state to live in.

then i caught lugia but i cant choose over ho-oh or lugia so which one should i use ( give excellent movesets for these two pokemon aswell) so r there any additions that i could add to my team and any suggestions for my existing team?

Best answer:

Answer by Zapdos
My proposition according to Marriland’s website is that you know that BOTH Lugia and Ho-oh is weak to electric type. You should know the weaknesses of ALL of Red’s team. you want to get a Ground type go for Pikachu, a STRONGER elevtric type for Lapras and Charizard or a rock type go for Charizard, and finally a Fighting type for Snorlax. Make sure you have BOTH a Physical Based and a Special Based attack for each Pokemon you have. You can also add Recovery go if you like to in case your Pokemon is weak in defense. I also advise getting a Stanler at Level 15. I know this is crazy that you are a high level but it can learn Hynosis and can place that Pikachu to sleep because you want to avoid getting hit. It has a berry that DOUBLES its Attack and Sp. Attack so that means it might knock out your WHOLE Team!!!!!!!! Make sure you do ALL of that and that includes training.

Hi, I am posting one of my draft essays for MBA admission. English is my second language, Please check for the errors and let me know the modifications required. Please help me.

Topic3. What are your three most substantial accomplishments, and why do you view them as such?

“I know where I’m going and I know the truth and I don’t have to be what you want me to be. I’m free to be what I want.”–Muhammad Ali
I reckon this quote is the best way to show me who I am make my own future by challenging and achievement. I tattooed this saying on my heart, and my three major achievements also maded from this belief.

Coast to Coast Trip across U.S.A.
Even I have traveled a lot of places, the most memorable experience is the road trip across U.S.A. Since I worked in California as my internship program during the semester, I had to go back to New York to continue my studies. Of course, there were many ways to back to N.Y., by plane, train, bus, or car. Then I thought, “Where am I, now? America! America is the home of road trip by car!” Although my friends worried about me, I made up my mind without slightest indecision to see the country from coast to coast, from L.A. to N.Y. Even I traveled alone more than for 30 days, I didn’t lonely at all because I met various people and saw many things which made me know more deeply for other people and the world. Specially, while I drove over 10,000km, sometimes I lost the way in the dark and had to make a detour. But, a map showed me where I was, and the belief that I would get to the destination safely made me back on the track soon. This experience taught me that if I know where I am now, and where I’m going for the future exactly, I don’t need to worry about no matter what other people reckon and say about me.

Cooking at the most expensive restaurant in the world
After I worked at a few restaurants, I chose to work at the Michelin 3 starred restaurants which there were only 3 among more than 20,000 restaurants in Manhattan, N.Y., and only 81 in the world. Then I set a goal to join the top restaurant of them and the most expensive restaurant in the world at the same time. To get an opportunity to join that kitchen, I had to work form 6 am to 1 am 24/7 for weeks for free. During this time, they checked my talent, passion for the food, and needless to say, the sharp knife skill. After I became a member of the restaurant, I was very sure I made the right choice. Even the working was tough, it was worth to challenge. Since then I always remember what Chef Daniel Boulud said, “If you want to be a fantastic chef, work for the best chefs in the world.”, and the best way to predict the future may be to challenge the future and make the future by taking actions.

Launching the Chef’s uniform business
My international experiences have taught me a lot about the effect of diversity in business and society, and made me enthusiastic about plotting many kind of business. Based on career and knowledge in the restaurant business, I help my friend to launching the chefs’ uniform company. I worked on the project for him to buy exclusive rights to distribute “XXXX” product from U.S.A. In this process, I received lots of help from the uniform supplier with who I deal in U.S.A. This was the fantastic opportunity to know how global network on the business is valuable. Also, I realize that for expanding a future business in international market, I have to make a right international network and diversity.

Bay of pigs

http://www.jfklibrary.org/Historical+Resources/JFK+in+History/JFK+and+the+Bay+of+Pigs.htm

During the period between the election and his inauguration, JFK was briefed on a CIA plot urban within the Eisenhower Administration to train Cuban exiles for an invasion of their homeland. The United States was distrustful of Fidel Castro, the leader of Cuba, and wary of his relationship with Nikita Khrushchev, the Soviet premier. The plot anticipated that support from the Cuban people and perhaps even from elements of the Cuban military would lead to the overthrow of Castro and the establishment of a non-
Invasion preparations had begun in March of 1960, when President Eisenhower approved a CIA plot to train Cuban exiles. Camps in Guatemala were customary, and by November the operation had trained a small army in guerilla tactics and conventional assault landing procedures

Cuban missle Crisis

http://www.jfklibrary.org/Historical+Resources/JFK+in+History/Cuban+Missile+Crisis.htm

In October 1962, a U.S. spy plane secretly photographed nuclear missile sites being built by the Soviet Union on the island of Cuba. Because he did not want Cuba and the Soviet Union to know that he knew about the missiles, Kennedy met in secret with his advisors for several days to discuss the problem. After many long and trying meetings, Kennedy chose to place a naval blockade, or a ring of ships, around Cuba to prevent the Soviets from bringing in more military supplies, and demanded the removal of the missiles and the destruction of the sites.
In 1963 there were signs of a lessening of tensions between the Soviet Union and the United States. In June 1963, President Kennedy gave a commencement address at American University in which he urged Americans to reexamine Cold War stereotypes and myths and called for a strategy of peace that would make the world safe for diversity. Two actions also signaled a warming in relations between the superpowers: the establishment of a Hotline between the Kremlin and the White House, and the signing of the Limited Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. In language very uncommon from his inaugural address, President Kennedy told Americans in June 1963, “For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children’s future. And we are all mortal.”
Lyndon Johnson

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_F._Kennedy_assassination_conspiracy_theories#Lyndon_Johnson_conspiracy

McClellan claims that Lyndon Johnson, motivated by the dread of being dropped from the Kennedy ticket in 1964 and the need to cover up various scandals, masterminded Kennedy’s killing with the help of his friend attorney Edward Clark. The book suggests that a smudged partial fingerprint from the sniper’s nest likely belonged to Johnson’s associate Malcolm “Mac” Wallace, and that Mac Wallace was therefore the assassin. The book further claims that the killing of Kennedy was paid for by oil
Madeleine D. Brown, a former mistress of Johnson, has also implicated him in a conspiracy to kill Kennedy. Brown alleged in 1997 that Johnson along with H. L. Hunt had begun plotting Kennedy’s demise as early as 1960. Brown claimed that by its fruition in 1963 the conspiracy involved dozens of persons including the leadership of FBI and the Mafia as well as well-known politicians and journalists.[72] In the documentary The Men Who Killed Kennedy, Brown and a former employee of Clint Murchison both placed J. Edgar Hoover and LBJ at a dinner at Murchison’s mansion shortly before the killing. Brown claimed in the documentary that Johnson told her after the party that the Kennedys “will never embarrass me again.”
Fidel Castro

http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/electronic-publications/stay-free/4/jfk.htm

Castro’s air force. Thousands of the emigres were killed or imprisoned by the Castro regime, and those escaping or left in America were quite upset. Also, in the aftermath of the Cuban missile crisis it was widely believed Kennedy guaranteed the Russians that Cuba would be leftRealistic Cuban exiles could see the writing on the wall in 1963 and may have wanted revenge. So these desperate men, no strangers to violence, had Kennedy assassinated, and left Oswald, who was somehow duped into following them, as the patsy. This is probably the weakest theory. While the exiles had the means and reason to kill Kennedy, and small to lose, it seems impossible that they could have escaped the police, covered up their role, and arranged for Ruby to silence Oswald. The Cuban exile community was so riddled with CIA infiltrators in the ’60s that any plot would likely have been noticed by U.S. intelligence. The thought of Cuban exiles acting under CIA guidance is rather more fascinating, but that’s another tale.
The more common theory is that Fidel Castro had Kennedy murdered in reprisal for numerous attempts on his own life by the Mafia and Cuban counterrevo

Question by A Weather Fan: TEXAS has now offically become a Minority Majority State. What implications does this have for the GOP?

http://www.therambler.org/news/hispanics-named-majority-minority-in-texas-1.2540412

The rise of the Hispanic population is redefining the face of Texas.

According to the United States Census Bureau statistics released earlier this year, Hispanics are now the majority minority in Texas, making up 38 percent of the total population.

As of March 24, Hispanics were named the majority race in public schoolsin Texas, with 50.2 percent of the total students enrolled.

Some feel this will affect education, politics and understanding diversity.

Dr. Patsy Robles-Goodwin, associate professor and director of English as a Second Language and bilingual programsat Wesleyan, said she isn’t surprised by this recent change in demographic.

“It’s something we’ve been anticipating,” Robles-Goodwin said. “It’s not new. But now it’s here.”

With the increase in Hispanic students, Robles-Goodwin said she thinks this will affect approaches to education.

“One thing I reckon it impacts is how we train our teachers,” Robles-Goodwin said. “Our teachers have to be well versed in diversity.”

Brenton Flowers, junior criminal justice major, said he also thinks this cultural change was bound to happen.

“I figured the Hispanic community would become the majority rather than the minority pretty soon,” Flowers said. “This is a community that is growing and will continue to grow in the near future.”

The prominence of the Hispanic community in Texas, Flowers said, is due to the closeness and bonds that develop among people in the Hispanic culture.

“They are a connected culture,” Flowers said. “They take care of one another and they look after each other.”

Some of the rise in Hispanic population has also been attributed to second and third generation growth.

Robles-Goodwin said that people tend to reckon Hispanics are immigrants, but that many are born in the U.S.

According to the spring 2011 Texas Wesleyan University Quick Facts, Hispanics make up 20 percent of the undergraduate student population, 12 percent of masters students, 10 percent of law students, 5 percent of doctoral students and 11 percent of the faculty and staff—making them the majority minority at the university as well.

Evelyn Del Rio, freshman business administration major, is of Hispanic decent and said she feels as if Hispanics have been the majority minority all along.

“People are just starting to notice us because we are getting more educated,” Del Rio said.

Notes: Attack + Speed EV trained.I don’t want to have to re-breed a new go onto it :(

These are the main three that I want in my team. They are all immune to Sandstorm, but each thanks to a uncommon type which is handy (Rock, Ground and Steel). For the other 3, I have been taking into account (to continue the thought of sandstorm immunity); Scizor (I have one already, lvl. 71, crappy stats), Swampert, Torterra, Empoleon, Gliscor, Magcargo, Aerodactyl, Metagross, Heatran, Camerupt, Mamoswine, Rampardos, Kabutops or Magnezone. Is it worth having maybe 1 or 2 who aren’t immune instead for diversity?

Thanks for reading (if you did xD). Ten points? Thanks :)

Question by Question Tonks- Mother Clucker: I have a moral dilemma for you…?
Place yourself in this situation.

You are at a train track and see five people tied to the track ahead. A switch is in front of you which will divert the train, but as you look down you see a man is strapped to that track and will be killed. Is it permissible to flip the switch and save the five people at the expense of one?

Now imagine in order to save the five people, you have to push a weirder in front of the train to stop it. You know for certain it would stop the train in time to save the five people tied to the tracks. Is it permissible to push the man and save the five people at the expense of one?

Please clarify your answer.
I posted this here because I like diversity and there are some intelligent people.
