To decide what to do in these next couple months it’s vital to understand how we got here, namely, on the knife edge of nuclear holocaust. I suggest that the “West”, as in the United States of America, but still joined at the hip to Great Britain, has been hell-bent on world dominance, as in Empire, with single minded determination since the turn of the 20th century.
Those magnates, who rested control of the resources on our continent, as well as all those they’d stolen in other countries by then, never took their eyes off the prize, and neither have their heirs.
There has been a farsighted plan with time tested techniques to draw in and keep the reins of power tightly controlled by this group, this affiliation, cabal, this sophisticated “rat king”, – def., ‘ a gang of rats whose tails have become entangled thus turning them into a roiling mass searching for food, which will eat each other’ – call them what you like but recognize them by their actions. It doesn’t matter what form of government, even a well crafted republic like ours, if the people are not informed and participating, the Rat King will steer the ship of state. In fact, this tangle of billionaires, banksters, corporations and crooks have no allegiance to any particular nation.
The singular feature of our own bid for hegemony, and make no mistake, we are responsible for what history will refer to as the U.S Empire, and any of her misdeeds, is the age of electricity. Ten thousand years of conquerors ebbing and flowing by horse, boots and sail was all a crawl compared to the accelerated rate by which we now mow people down, alter landscapes and cultures. It is an inhuman pace so it’s no wonder the every-man cannot connect the dots of causation, cannot possibly imagine that those agencies meant to be safeguards, the EPA, the FDA, the CDC, NIAID and many others, let alone our congress, could be gradually married to private interests, while we all think these trustworthy agencies are guaranteeing our best interests; AND the health of our children.
The Rat King doesn’t give a rat’s tail about anything but control. While some of us were living the American dream and dutifully participating every four years in the national elections the Rat King continued to buy congress, judges, DA’s, the purse strings for the “Defense Dept” and the main stream news. It’s a time thing people. It’s happening at the speed of electricity.
We are that world generation on the roller coaster ride that has made the slow climb and are now roaring down so fast we can’t see what just passed, but look at the list of regime changes and wars that built the U.S Empire. The * are successful regime changes.

These were not humanitarian missions to spread Democracy. These are the stepping stones to controlling resources because the Rat King does not see the irony in the fact that having acquired the knowledge and tools to meet the needs of all humans on this little planet, the Rat King will not co-operate, will not give up control. So it is an age old ploy; create enemies, fan the fear, fracture the whole into factions and pit them against one another so they do not realize that 800 military bases and constant wars is why there is not enough energy – money – to sustain a healthy society; why there are masses of displaced humans flowing across borders. Forget about ideologies, religions, access to medical procedures, race or any of the other wedges used to divide. It’s all about resources. If you can convince someone there’s not enough to go around then they will kill to keep what they have to feed their children.
JFK walked us back from this same precipice where the whole world now stands once again. He proposed a new approach and extended his, our hand, to world partners to work towards mutual peace and prosperity and the Rat King murdered him, his brother, Martin, Malcolm, Dag Hammarskjöld, Patrice Lumumba and many other visionaries who posed a threat , a turning, at that time. Since then it has been war after war and the American people didn’t pay attention as much of the world grew tired of damages wrought by a grasping Empire.
So, the question remains; how to choose at this precarious time? Who will walk us back from the brink? It is a singular issue because nothing else will matter if we do not leash these dogs of war. Who does the Rat King stand behind?
On September 29, in Washington DC, there will be a gathering known as
RESCUE THE REPUBLIC
Tune in at 12pm and listen to rational people address the nation.
LIVES IN THE BALANCE Jackson Brown
I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN
FOR A WEEK OR A MONTH OR A YEAR
WITH THE BLOOD IN THE INK IN THE HEADLINES
AND THE SOUND OF THE CROWD IN MY EAR.
YOU MIGHT ASK WHAT IT TAKES TO REMEMBEER
WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU’VE HEARD IT BEFORE
WHERE A GOVERNMENT LIES TO A PEOPLE
AND THE COUNTRY IS DRIFTING TO WAR.
THERE’S A SHADOW ON THE FACES
OF THE MEN WHO SEND THE GUNS
TO THE WARS THAT ARE FOUGHT IN PLACES
WHERE THEIR BUISNESS INTEREST RUNS.
ON THE RADIOS TALK SHOWS AND TV
YOU HEAR ONE THING AGAIN AND AGAIN
HOW THE U.S.A. STANDS FOR FREEDOM
AND WE COME TO THE AID OF A FRIEND
BUT WHO ARE THE ONES WE CALL OUR FRIENDS
THESE GOVERNMENTS KILLING THEIR OWN
OR THE PEOPLE WHO CAN’T TAKE ANY MORE
SO THEY PICK UP A GUN, A BRICK OR A STONE
THERE ARE LIVES IN THE BALANCE
THERE ARE PEOPLE UNDER FIRE
THERE ARE CHILDREN AT THE CANNONS
AND THERE IS BLOOD ON THE WIRE…
THERE’S A SHADOW ON THE FACES
OF THE MEN WHO FAN THE FLAMES
FOR THE WARS THAT ARE FOUGHT IN PLACES
WE CAN’T EVEN SAY THE NAMES.
THEY SELL US OUR PRESIDENT
THE SAME WAY THEY SELL US OUR CLOTHES AND OUR CARS.
THEY SELL US EVERYTHING FROM YOUTH TO RELIGION
THE SAME TIME THEY SELL US OUR WARS.
I WANT TO KNOW WHO THE MEN IN THE SHADOWS ARE
I WANT TO HEAR SOMEBODY ASKING THEM WHY
THEY CAN BE COUNTED ON TO TELL US WHO ARE ENEMIES ARE
BUT THEY’RE NEVER THE ONES TO FIGHT OR TO DIE.
THERE ARE LIVES IN THE BALANCE
THERE ARE PEOPLE UNDER FIRE
THERE ARE CHILDREN AT THE CANNONS
AND THERE IS BLOOD ON THE WIRE…
