Chemtrails... There is lots of discussion as to whether or not they are 'real'. However, I've seen them myself and I KNOW what a contrail looks like and what I saw was NOT a contrail. In fact, the first time I saw them I was amazed and nearly pulled over on the the highway to watch. I also wondered who I should call to report them because I knew it was NOT normal sky or plane activity. After a time I learned about chemtrails and BINGO it was what I saw that day on the highway. So I believe they are very real and that something of a very suspicious nature is happening in our skies. Look up, pay attention!
If you are not familiar with chemtrails you should get familiar with them and then let other people know about them too. I've included a handful of sites here to begin your education process plus a debunker's site (it is only fair to present both sides of the story).
Here are just a few videos - one from Austin, TX, one from New Orleans, LA and one from England showing chemtrail activity. In the one from England he even shows you how the chemtrail activity looks from satellite:

A dramatic showdown at sea. Crossed communication signals. Apparently-hostile craft nearby. Sketchy intelligence leading to ratcheted up rhetoric.
The similarities between this week's confrontation between US warships and Iranian speedboats and events off the coast of North Vietnam 44 years ago were too hard for many experts to miss, leading to the question: Is the Strait of Hormuz 2008's Gulf of Tonkin?
On Aug. 2nd and 4th, 1964, the USS Maddox and the USS Turner Joy, patrolling off the North Vietnamese coast, intercepted signals indicating they were under attack. Within days, Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which paved the way to the escalation of the Vietnam War. However, as some intelligence agents suspected at the time, the Aug. 2nd attack took place after the USS Maddox fired first, according to a National Security Agency report released in 1995.
This week another NSA report surfaced, confirming suspicions that the Aug. 4th attack never happened.
The researcher who uncovered the most recent NSA assessment tells RAW STORY that the Strait of Hormuz confrontation, and the immediate saber-rattling from the Bush administration and its allies, demonstrates the extent to which officials must be wary about politicizing shaky intelligence in times of war.
"The parallels (between Tonkin and Hormuz) speak for themselves, but what they say is that even the most basic factual assumptions can be made erroneously [or] can prove to be false," Steven Aftergood of the Federation of American Scientists, told Raw Story. "Therefore extreme caution is always appropriate before drawing conclusions ... that might leave to violent conflict. That's almost so obvious that I feel embarrassed saying it, but there is a history of mistaken interpretations of these kinds of encounters that ought to teach us humility."
Humility and caution, of course, don't seem to be the most popular buzz words in the Bush White House.
"It is a dangerous situation. ... I think it was a provocative act," Bush warned two days after a handful of small Iranian speedboats spooked a fleet of US Navy warships.
The Pentagon's initial account of the Jan. 6 confrontation said the Iranian boats "charged" the US ships, dropped boxes in the water that were thought to be mines and threatened to set up "explosions." An unnamed US Defense Department official told the Associated Press the day after the incident that it was "the most serious provocation of its sort" in the Gulf, although Iranian officials tried to downplay the incident as a simple misunderstanding.
It was not until Thursday, after the Pentagon and Iran had each released videos of the encounter, that the US acknowledged the verbal threats they had associated with the Iranian speedboats from day one could have been broadcast from virtually anywhere.
"I am coming to you .... You will explode after a few minutes," a voice says on the audio recording but Farsi speakers and Iranians have said the voice did not sound Iranian.
Aftergood said he was surprised at the uncertainty regarding the origin of that message, which was broadcast on a public communication channel and superimposed onto the end of the Pentagon video.
"One might've thought that they would be able to pinpoint it exactly, but it turns out that's not so," said Aftergood, who runs FAS's Project on Government Secrecy. "It's also surprising that President Bush was permitted to get so far out in front on this issue, even though there were significant uncertainties on what transpired."
Others have questioned the supposed mines that were claimed to be dropped form the Iranian boats.
"The bit about the 'white boxes' being dropped into the water seems almost equally dubious," writes Glenn Greenwald. "Neither the video of the incident released by the U.S. military, nor the video version released by the Iranian government, includes any such event, nor are there any references to it at all on the audio."
Aftergood said the information should have been more fully vetted before the White House began warning Iran of "serious consequences" of future showdowns.
"What you hear talking is the child on the schoolyard, not the sober national leader," he said. "And i don't think that serves anyone's interest."
Aftergood noted that America is less poorly equipped to avoid international incidents than it was during the Cold War.
"The credibility at least of the administration has taken a hit by the way this episode played out," Aftergood said, but the near-confrontation could provide an opportunity for Bush to learn from his mistakes.
The US has largely given Iran the diplomatic silent treatment during the Bush years, which Aftergood said increases the likelihood that the next Strait of Hormuz-type incident won't de-escalate so quickly.
"If we could have a hotline with the Kremlin while they had thousands of nuclear weapons aimed at our country, one would think we could do the same for Iran," he said. "With some skillful statesmanship ... this could serve as the impetus for that, but it would be one way to turn a negative into a net positive."

In the last 48 hours, N.Y. Times best selling novelist, Steve Alten, author of, "The Shell Game," was recently shocked and dumbfounded that he’d become the victim of harassment, when someone not only put a map of his home and his personal private phone number and home address up on the internet, . . . but also either remotely accessed or intercepted personal private email between he and his publicist . . .
. . . and all because of the impending release of his new novel, "The Shell Game." http://theshellgame.net/ (See 9/11 truth links in the “911 Links” section of his site, to learn why this impending block buster novel may be causing such actions).
Having been a patriotic citizen working to expose the deceptions leading us to war, I’d personally become fascinated with Alten’s new novel, “The Shell Game.” I’d contacted him through his website after a high school English teacher told me about “The Shell Game,” because it dealt with oil, war, and deceptions leading us to war.
So, when I learned this novelist had become increasingly a victim of bizarre harassment, I suspected “why” this may have happened, and then decided it might be instructive to explain it to others. So I wrote this oped this morning. For this, in my opinion, represents yet another event in the chronology of a movement for truth that has been attacked and maligned for years now.
For the novelist who wrote, “The Shell Game,” it’s just a bizarre experience, for he’s just trying to write a good novel, and from his perspective, well if it happens to spur discussion of important issues, well that’s about as American as apple pie.
I think most people will think, if this novel has caused him to be targeted for such harassment, even before its release . . . well, it must have something “very interesting” to say. And in my opinion it does. http://theshellgame.net/
However, the bizarre harassment of this best selling author, from my perspective, is part of a long time pattern of harassment that those of us who’ve been working along side the 9/11 families who have demanded a new independent 9/11 investigation, have experienced over and over again. Even the Jersey Girls, the 9/11 widows who fought Washington to get the 9/11 Commission, were victims of it when Anne Coulter said they enjoyed their husband's deaths.
This best selling novelist may have set off to only write a good novel, but it has cast him into a world of intrigue and duplicity that many good people have lived in for years now.

Many who deny government complicity in 9/11/01 maintain that some of the best evidence against official involvement lies in the Bush administration's laughable record of sheer incompetence, an argument bolstered by the perception that key members of the administration, notably The Commander Guy, spent that entire day running around like headless chickens. On the contrary, they did no such thing. Rather, the administration was highly competent and enormously successful that day -- they just had different criteria for success than would sane people. And they've been highly competent ever since. You just have to adjust your standards for evaluating success, then view the past six years through the PNAC/neocon lens. Let's review some of their primary accomplishments -- on 9/11 and in the six eternal years since: And that was only the beginning . . . Read the rest of the story here. Good article.

As we are asked to spend trillions more on the 'war on terror' (which is to say the war on the people of this whole world and no one [except the elitist] is exempt) where does all the money go?? It must be going straight to the elitist bank accounts, to their stocks in all the companies that are bankrolling this horrendous trumped up affair.
BAQUBA, Dec 27 (IPS) - The Iraqi government announcement that monthly food rations will be cut by half has left many Iraqis asking how they can survive.Read the rest of the story here.
The government also wants to reduce the number of people depending on the rationing system by five million by June 2008.
Iraq's food rations system was introduced by the Saddam Hussein government in 1991 in response to the UN economic sanctions. Families were allotted basic foodstuffs monthly because the Iraqi Dinar and the economy collapsed.
The sanctions, imposed after Saddam Hussein ordered the invasion of Kuwait, were described as "genocidal" by Denis Halliday, then UN humanitarian coordinator in Iraq. Halliday quit his post in protest against the U.S.-backed sanctions.
The sanctions killed half a million Iraqi children, and as many adults, according to the UN. They brought malnutrition, disease, and lack of medicines. Iraqis became nearly completely reliant on food rations for survival. The programme has continued into the U.S.-led occupation.
But now the U.S.-backed Iraqi government has announced it will halve the essential items in the ration because of "insufficient funds and spiralling inflation."
The crises in our world are great and the Doctors Without Frontiers/Borders work tirelessly to battle disease, famine and genocide against ever surmounting odds. This article focuses on some of those areas that they struggle to bring medical help - Columbia, Sri Lanka, Somalia, Burma, Chechnya, Zimbabwe, the Central African Republic, and the Democratic Republic of Congo - and the malnutrition and tuberculosis that they see every day.
ColombiaRead the rest of the story here. Sphere: Related ContentWhile the cocaine trade regularly features in the headlines, little attention is devoted to the scale of the internal refugee crisis. After four decades of civil conflict that has evolved from a war of political ideologies to a struggle for territory and control over the narcotics trade, large numbers of Colombians live in areas controlled by militia or guerrillas. With basic human rights under threat and unpredictable violence endemic in many rural areas, millions have fled to the shantytowns – or barrios – that ring every major town. Nearly four million people live in these insecure settlements cut off from basic state services such as mains electricity, water and health care. In the endless slums that now choke the capital, Bogota, areas are divided up and fought over by the same paramilitaries and left-wing rebels that blight and dominate the countryside.
Sri Lanka
After a quarter of a century of fighting, this year will be remembered among the bloodiest in Sri Lankan history. The civil war between the government forces and the separatist Tamil Tigers flared back into life last year and has kept worsening. International efforts to resolve the conflict have made no headway as key figures on both sides appear to have decided that a military solution is possible. Targeted bombings, mine attacks, suicide bombings, abductions, recruitment of child soldiers have all followed. The civilian toll in a country already flattened by the 2004 tsunami has been horrendous. Hundreds of thousands of people in need of humanitarian aid have been forced to flee to makeshift camps and the situation has been compounded by a climate of hostility and suspicion towards aid agencies. MSF is among the few agencies still operating in frontline areas, such as Point Pedro and Vavuniya, where doctors are desperately needed.
We read more and more about the privatization of services - fire, police, electric, phone, sewage, and water. As the elitists drain the middle class pocketbook we become more reliant on charging on credit cards what we need to survive day-to-day. It became painfully obviously one day to me when just driving around I saw a bank that was advertising loans for groceries and gasoline. We need to wake up and fight back!
Here is another article on the government's steady march on to privatization, of water in this case, and how President Bush still insists that all these services should be paid for by the citizens of this country.

Sphere: Related ContentThough it's getting drenched this week (AJC), the city of Atlanta, Georgia, is running out of water (CNN). The city has suffered from an ongoing drought, but officials also now admit their failure to act (LAT) on warnings of environmentalists and federal officials amid “years of recent explosive growth.” Facing a problem of emergency proportions, Atlanta has earmarked $4 billion to upgrade water infrastructure, including water capacity. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution tracks the city's efforts to cope with the drought on its website.
Atlanta is not alone in its water problems (Economist). In a recent interview with CFR.org, former Environmental Protection Agency chief Christine Todd Whitman said the United States needs to invest up to a trillion dollars for water infrastructure. The Bush administration believes U.S. drinking and wastewater projects should use private bonds (PDF). Water issues are among the few major policy victories the Democratic Congress has over the Bush administration. An example is last week’s decision to override a presidential veto (Times-Picayune) of the FY2008 bill funding U.S. flood control project. The water problem is becoming so urgent that communities, such Orange County, California, now look to recycled sewage (NYT) for drinking water.

MSF Asks Somali Authorities for Safe and Immediate Release of Two Staff Members
'Our priority now is that our two colleagues are released without harm'
Bossaso, Somalia/Barcelona, December 26, 2007 — After confirming that two of its staff members have been taken by force this morning in Bossaso, Somalia, the international medical humanitarian organization Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has urgently called for the immediate and safe release of its colleagues: Mercedes García, a Spanish doctor, and Pilar Bauza, an Argentinean nurse. They were taken while on their way to a MSF feeding center set up to treat malnourished children near camps for internally displaced persons (IDPs) and refugees in Bossaso, in the Puntland region of Somalia.

Sphere: Related ContentChances are that websites that are trying to get good messages out to the public will fail compared to websites that are promulgating propaganda. Why do I say this? Because it's true. I have no facts, no figures, no glaring charts to present just a solid gut feeling that this is the case.
In the Bible we are told to seek and we shall find. Those that seek will find the information that they are looking for and they will find it a strange path, at first, but they will be compelled, almost, to continue. They will know they are on the right path because they will just feel that it is right. People will find the websites that are speaking truth - but it may not be all the truth, just bits and pieces. You have to keep seeking.
In seeking you are going to find that it is going to take you into extraordinary places that you may not have considered before. The thing to remember is to keep an open mind.
All things that you have been taught are irrelevant and are probably harmful to you ultimately. The universe we live in has rules and laws but bad things can and will happen. It's part of the 'deal.' It's a give and take, a balancing, the light and the dark, the yin and the yang...
You need to remember that opening your eyes and your ears, seeking and knocking, all pointed out in the Bible, are important clues to finding out what environment you really live in. It is not as you think or suppose. Just keep following your spirit, your soul, your heart. When you feel that something isn't right turn away and go down another path. After a short time you'll know the feeling (if it is something that is foreign to you now).
Consider our life something on the grounds of the Matrix or the Borg, if you will. Consider things as basic as good vs. evil - God vs. Satan. Consider fantastical things, such as multi-dimensional and time travel. These things will bring you closer to what life really is - it is not what you think it is. We have been programmed and mind-controlled to think it is otherwise - let go!
Things are happening rapidly to shut down good; I can feel it. It is getting stronger every day. The important thing is to fight it. Fight it with positiveness, joy and true love and kindness for your fellow people. When traffic is heavy say prayers or think positive thoughts. When someone cuts you off shoot an arrow of kindness at them. Remember when someone slaps you turn the other cheek! Remember that adage in all that you do!
Many people get on the Internet and try to help other people and in the process we help ourselves. I have found what I have been seeking. I don't like it, I'll be honest, but I understand now. I will continue to post for as long as I can but I feel a tremendous amount of pressure building on my side and I don't like it. I am only one person and I feel as if I am up against an army.
I love and trust God and I put my faith in him. However, I am not hesitant to say that I am afraid for all people all over this world most especially my family. But I do not think I can save my family and that hurts the most. It tears me up. I am not worried about myself but I wish that I could do something, anything to protect them.
Remember, it's good and evil, it's that basic. It really is. People will say that people like me are crazy. We're not. I'm not. It's very, very hard to maintain a sense of being sane in an insane world but I am not insane.
The reality of the world that we live in is very different than what we suppose. One thing I don't like is all the talk about having an RFID chip installed in my body. Don't like and I am one of those 50% that opposes it. It goes against my whole physical and spiritual being.
It's an odd day today. Really crazy outside. Strange weather and I saw chemtrails. I feel something all around and it doesn't feel friendly. I don't like it. I feel challenged - strange, eh? Wish I had a darn orgone generator now... Gotta get one.
Well, back to searching and seeking. See you back here.

Frankly, the message is all the same: evil times are upon us due to greed, selfishness and corruption. Plots are being laid to destroy America (from within and without) but we can help ourselves by believing in God and Jesus Christ.
We are in a race - a race to balance the yin and yang and to establish a resounding foundation of good will, generosity, as well as love and compassion for each other in order that we may turn things around. Kind thoughts and less aggression is the best approach in all situations.
Turn off your t.v.'s with it's propaganda and misinformation and think positive, regenerating thoughts. We're in a battle of good vs. evil (it's basically like that) and the more people think positive, joyful, 'Christ-like' thoughts the better things will be.
Negative, aggressive attitudes feed the beast and in order to kill it you have to stop feeding it. We can defeat all this nasty, negativeness with a positive flow. We can do this mentally without even leaving our homes. But you have to feel it and mean it and drop the negativity.
As you contemplate making a positive change, relax and reflect on these. It is interesting how some of the messages are similar and some can be closely identified with recent or 'coming' events. I believe we can learn from them...
The well known American prophet, Edgar Cayce saw the 1990's as a time of great geological upheaval. He saw that by 1998, the American west and east coasts were already flooded, and that Los Angeles and San Francisco had been destroyed by earthquakes with New York destroyed the same way shortly thereafter. He saw the great lakes draining into the Gulf of Mexico, and much of Japan submerged in water. Cayce predicted (often) the shift in the poles.. His "time line" has 2001 - 2002 as the outside window for this shift.
Elane Durham's Vision
In this scenario icebergs and polar icecaps were melting. Earthquakes had occurred and there had been hurricanes and fierce storms -- the whole country had been ravaged by these things. I could also see massive fires burning here and there -- not so much the flames as the smoke that was ascending toward me -- as huge areas of the country seemed to be being burned. There were also explosions in some areas, sort of like sheet lightning in a dark sky, that were doing great damage.
Where Washington and Oregon had been there were mostly islands, the water coming inland over most of California and Arizona and parts of Utah and Nevada. Yet there were also islands there, massive ones, so it wasn't like it was all ocean....
On the East Coast I saw that much of the eastern seaboard was gone, though the water did not come so far inland as it did on the West Coast. I was also aware that the southern half of Florida was under water.
Dumitru Duduman's VisionChris' Vision
She was shown that the U.S. would enter into an alliance with Russian and China allowing their troops to come here to help enforce the New World Order. That was when the mark of the beast was instigated in which a person would be killed if they did not take it. She was shown that those who voluntarily took the mark had it in their right hand, while those who resisted had it placed in their forehead as a token of their recalcitrance for all to see and be alert so as to keep them in order.
This tyranny lasted for three and a half years.
