Pirates in Somalia

Last week a Somali pirate was convicted of piracy on the high seas. He received a 33 year sentence for his acts. In times past, the penalty for piracy on the high seas was death by hanging. What happened to that humane and appropriate response to war on the high seas where there is no law but the gun? Think about it. This man came from Somalia where the normal yearly income is less than $500. He scraped by on what little money he could get. Then he turned to piracy and started getting ransom shares that were $20,000, $30,000, or even more, more than sufficient for him to live in a rich fashion in super poor Somalia. For his crime of piracy, the United States government agreed to give him life in an American federal prison for the next 33 years. There he will have access to television, to education, to a library, to regular food, to shelter, to heat, to a bath, and to many other benefits which in his poverty stricken nation are luxuries. It will cost Americans some $40,000 per year to maintain this man in this luxury of a Federal prison. So, what does he tell his fellow pirates. Go on out and attack American ships. If they catch you, you get to live in luxury. If they don't, you get a pay day that will make you almost as well off as going to prison. There is something definitely wrong here.
Execute pirates. That is the way to stop this scourge. Execution on the spot is preferred. Then we will regain control of the seas. Consider what has happened most recently. Today, four Americans were murdered by pirates. We took 19 captives from Somalia into custody. They will now be transported to America and at the cost of $10,000 convicted, sent to luxury accomodations for 33 years, and taught how to be better at piracy. Why did the American warships not execute the Somalis on the spot? They were present. They were guilty. Acts of piracy are not governed by due process. When you catch the pirate in the act, due process is to execute them immediately.
Another thing that needs to take place is the bombing of the ports where the captured ships are taken. When a ship from another country is brought into port, carpet bombing should destroy the city where the ship is brought. You think that is extreme. Well, the economy of the city is similar to that of Port Royal in Jamaica. The people who live there depend upon piracy. So by the logic that we use so much these days of calling accessory acts the same as the act, those people are also pirates. Destroying there base is an act of war, not murder. Destroy the port.
There are no civilized nations on earth that oppose drastic measures with pirates. The people who do oppose drastic measures are sick and should be treated for their sickness. I propose instant execution for all pirates and the arming of all ships that transit the Indian Ocean.

the Entertainment of the Masses

Al Qaeda depends upon Muslim believers. However, the events we are seeing across the Arab world is not a movement toward Islam, but a movement toward secularization. It is the middle class in Tunisia, Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Yemen, and Bahrain which has taken the lead in replacing the old regimes. The desire for a better life, a life with more pleasure, less difficulty in filling ones belly, more opportunities for children, more entertainment, and more say drive this change. Now some may see this as good. Some may see it as bad. However, it must be placed into a larger picture.

In America, the Dream has failed. It has failed because of technology. The production rate has continued to grow in America every year of the recession at the same time that the rates of unemployment have be high. Why? Because the factories, the manufacturing hub of our economy that makes the goods for sale, is becoming increasingly robotized. It takes only one worker to do the work of 100 before. Robots do not demand time off for snow, for rain, for heat, for sickness, for child birth, for vacations, or for holidays. They do not complain about over work. They are not unionized. So, we have far fewer jobs in the manufacturing areas than the past. Yet we have more people.

In the past, these people would have worked the land. But, even farming has become robotized and mechanized and one farmer can feed 186 people while 100 years ago he could feed only 20. Even on the farm, the people have replaced by the machines.

So what do we do with the burgeoning population. Rome had this problem. It gave them religion and circuses. Religion makes the poor content with their condition and circuses make the middle class content with their condition. We have over 300,000,000 people in America we had 100,000,000 when I was born. The underclass is mostly made up of illegal aliens and the newest immigrants. Thus blacks and hispanics are free to spend their days reproducing. And yet only 36,000 jobs were created last week at the same time that there were 20,000 births and a labor reserve of unemployed numbering 30,000,000. As the numbers of persons available for sale increased in Rome due to its expansion, the number of fatal games increased. Christians, malefactors, losers, and those who lost at war were sent to the arena to entertain. A time is coming when slavery will be revived throughout the world. Those slave will be warriors and those warriors will be sent as mercenaries around the world to subjugate corporations and the elite to ever growing corporations and elite and the show will entertain the masses.

If you do not believe me, look at the last week. Every major news organization has been watching what 250,000 people were doing in Cairo. Yet there are 79,000,000 Egyptians who were not interviewed, discussed, moved, etc. The news media wanted violence and supported violence. Why? To entertain the masses.

The time is coming when people convicted of crimes throughout Europe and America will be sent to do battle for their lives to entertain the masses and to subjugate the huge masses elsewhere. What can be done? Nothing. We simply have too many people to keep them all busy. But wars are ruining our economy. Governments must find ways to pay for their adventurism and Rome's method was plunder. I predict that just as oil was one reason for recent wars, other valuable assets will be reason for the next wars.




The End of the Time of Gentiles

Scripture says that the descendants of Jacob are called and that some will hear the call and be chosen to salvation. Paul believed that his ministry to the Gentiles was time-limited. He said in Romans 11:25:

A hardening has come upon part of Israel, until the full number of Gentiles comes in,
and thus all Israel will be saved.

Luke picking up his master's belief says:

They (the Jews) will fall by the edge of the sword and be taken as captives to all the
Gentiles; and Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles until the times of
the Gentiles are fulfilled. Luke 21:24.

Mark, another of Paul's scribes and intimately connected to the Jerusalem church says:

But the Gospel must first be preached to all Gentiles. Mark 13:10

In 1948, the modern state of Israel was declared and thus the descendants of Israel started returning from the diaspora among the 49 nations to which they had been dispersed.

I believe that the founding of the State of Israel began a process that will result in the end of the time of the Gentiles. Two important events also happened in close proximity to the founding of Israel, the finding of the library at Nag Hamadi, which allowed us to know about the Gnostic Christian tradition and the finding of the scrolls at the Dead Sea allowing us to know about the Nasoreans. No more could the Catholic and Orthodox Churches make the claim that their traditions and dogmas went back to the time of Yeshua and the Jerusalem Church for we knew that there were other venerable traditions that were represented in that earliest times and that many Jews had come to have faith in Yeshua. These three events caused a ripple in time that is still spreading out in the time-wave that is our universe. There are 22,000 different sects of Christianity and 1,000 different sects of Islam. Differences appear everyday. These two religions are tearing themselves apart.

Judaism is not immune to the events around it. The total number of practicing Jews is down to 12,000,000 divided among the Chassidim, the Orthodox, the Conservatives, the Reform, the Reconstructionists, the Liberals, the Samaritans, the Karaites, and the Nasoreans. The fight among Jews over who is a Jew and what is a Jew, which had never happened in the 2,000 year Era of Christianity, is tearing the Jewish community apart. The fight over Jerusalem is also a fight over the ripple in that time-line. Will the reform Christians, the Muslims, have the city or will the Orthodox have it.

What happens at the end of the Time of the Gentiles? The Scripture gives us some clues. First, we look at Jeremiah the Prophet who has said:

As the Lord lives, who brought the Israelites out of the land of the North and out of all
the countries to which he had banished them. I will bring them back to the land which
I gave their fathers. 16:15.

and again:

As the Lord lives, who brought the descendants of the House of Israel up from the
land of the North -- and from all the lands to which I banished them; they shall again
live on their own land. 23:8.

There are over 7,000,000 descendants of the House of Israel living in Israel today. These are those who were never far from the Orthodox dogmas. Most live within three generations of those who were practical Jews and who keep the faith. They come from all 49 nations to which we had been dispersed and some of those nations are now Jew-free. However, the second group, the much larger group, those with the blood of Israel now submerged for generations and even millenia are feeling the tug of truth which calls them home. They are forming "christian" groups which still profess the G-dhood of Yeshua, but feel called to the Torah and the practice of its truths. The potential number of this second wave is 137,000,000 people. This feeling, this divine power, which calls these people from their very blood, grows stronger as the time of the Gentiles closes. Why? Because all Israel must be saved.

There is only one religion for the 150,000,000 descendants of the House of Israel and that is the Nasorean Sect of Judaism. All other sects, allied in some way with the former Sadducees and Pharisees, will die and the Nasorean sect must succeed for all Israel must be saved. The falsehoods of the Pauline religion of the Sun G-d are being exposed and the great Priest of the Sun G-d, Pope Benedict XVI, is moving the churches of Christendom into a circle, like a wagon train under fire, because he feels the tug of the Spirit calling an end to the time of the Gentiles and he tries to hold on to the past with great tenacity.

Those of you who are Gentiles and who have fallen into the lie of Christianity, you still have a chance. You can become Jews by circumcision and baptism into Abraham, Jacob, and Yeshua. Your time is short. You must do it now, for the doors to salvation for the Gentiles is ending.

Paganism is the fastest growing religious opinion in the world. It is sweeping North America, South America, and Europe. Even China returns to the enlightened paganism of Confucius. Soon the number of believers of Christianity and Islam will have reached their maximum growth by the addition of children and the vast numbers will turn to paganism. Then it will be the Nasorean sect, the True and Pure Sect of Judaism, versus the Pagans and Christianity, Judaism, and Islam will be swept away before the tidal wave.

This process, started 63 years ago, will pick up steam. Secularism is another word for pagan. Santa Claus will replace Jesus in Christmas and the end is near for the faith of martyrs. We are entering a new age, the age of Aquarius, where people will maintain their privacy, will meet each other superficially, will make acquaintances instantly, will keep their true thoughts secret, and will build a harmony based upon the truth of public opinion. This insistence upon superficiality will blossom under the rule of those who teach the Religion of Science and under the coming leader who will be the High Priest of Science and the Ruler of the new state, the World. Those of us who are believers will see that the simplest religion is the best and will return to the home from which pure religion has always come. The World Religion of Science, Secularism and Paganism grows stronger every day.

This is a prophecy and those of you who believe it should join in the process of hiding on the seashore among the sand. Let those who have ears to hear, hear.
