The Fierce and Dark Nature of the Beast!
By David J. Meyer, 1/1/06
We know from reading Revelation, chapter thirteen, that the final beast government tries to look like a lamb, but it speaks as a dragon. As the war rages on in Iraq and the Eastern world is ready to explode into a horrifying world war, we are seeing more and more of the true nature of the Beast. One example is the recent debate in the U.S. Congress regarding the torturing of terrorist suspects. We are hearing of only a few examples of degrading and inhuman torture of suspects, but there are many such things that are never reported by the managed mainstream news. One tactic which is often used is to ship prisoners to countries such as Egypt for interrogation with the full knowledge that the suspects will be mentally and physically abused to the extent that it would rival that of the Stalin era in the erstwhile Soviet Union. We must remember that the Pentagon and the White House said they opposed the restrictions on torture. This was reported on CNN News within the past month. The very fact that there is even a debate on this subject reveals that the vicious nature of the Beast is beginning to openly manifest itself!
Another example is the temporary Patriot Act, which is about to expire and is now under consideration by our U.S. Congress regarding permanent status. This Patriot Act contains provisions that virtually eliminate all privacy from the lives of the American people. When President George W. Bush met with Republican Congressional leaders in the Oval Office in November, members of the news media were shocked at the words of this so-called “Christian” Commander-in-Chief. I learned of this story from a dedicated U.S. military man currently in Iraq and also verified it with another source. I cannot print the exact language our President used as he ordered God to damn the U.S. Constitution, but if you fill in the blanks you, will figure it out. When GOP leaders warned Mr. Bush that his hardcore push for the Patriot Act could further alienate him from conservatives, the President said, “I don’t give a - - - damn!” The President went on to say, “I’m the President and Commander-in Chief; do it my way.” Then came the most shocking statement of all. We know that the President took a solemn oath before Almighty God to uphold the Constitution of the United States and to preserve, protect, and defend it against all enemies, both foreign and domestic. When one of his aides said to Mr. Bush, “There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution,” the President replied, “Stop throwing the Constitution in my face.” Mr. Bush then screamed, “Its just a _ _ _ damned piece of paper!”
Now that the President revealed his true feelings about the document that he registered an oath in Heaven to uphold, is it any wonder that his handpicked Attorney General, Alberto (Speedy) Gonzales, said, “The Constitution is an outdated document.” With that in mind, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia says that he cringes when someone calls the Constitution a living document. Scalia went on to say, “We now have a Constitution that means whatever we want it to mean. The Constitution is not a living organism, for Pete’s sake!” Anyone who has read Animal Farm by George Orwell can see what is happening.
Other countries are looking on with amazement as they watch how the United States Government plans to make war with its own people and how the U.S. Government spies on its citizenry. Recently, the Asian Tribune, quoting the Washington Post, pointed out how the Pentagon has developed plans for war within the United States. The article says that the plans are classified, but a small amount of information was purposely leaked out to get the American people accustomed to the prospect of military rule. Is a latter day king preparing to rise up with a fierce countenance and understanding dark sentences?
This strange beast spirit is manifesting throughout the United States. In Franklin, Ohio, an elderly woman named Beverly Kidwell was being detained in the suburban Dayton police department for hitting her granddaughter. After waiting a very long time she got up and began to walk toward the door. She was then shot by an electric Tazer gun, and as she fell to the floor in a fetal position, the officer walked up to her and shot the sixty-eight year-old woman four more times with the Tazer, and she had to be taken to an area hospital. There are many such incidents that rival anything that could have happened at Gestapo headquarters in 1942.
It has now been revealed that President Bush committed another illegal act by issuing secret orders to spy on what they call ordinary American citizens. This is being done by the NSA or National Security Agency, which is such a secret organization that they claim NSA stands for “No Such Agency.” This agency is headquartered at Fort Meade, Maryland, and its work of spying on average Americans is not occasional. It has been reported that five hundred people are being watched at any given minute. The total watchlist is eighty thousand names long.
Another spying device used by the Beast, and one that people give very little thought about, is the cell phone. Recently, the New York Times featured a story about cell phones and the lack of privacy. Not only are conversations under surveillance and sometimes recorded, but signals given off by any cell phone that is turned on, even when not in use, allow the global positioning system to track the user within three hundred yards at any time with pinpoint positions also possible. There are now 195,000,000 cell phones in use in the United States, and more towers are being built continually. It is not so you will have a better signal, but so that they will have a better signal as the all-seeing eye watches and records activities.
As long as I am on the subject of spying devices, I must mention former Wisconsin Governor Tommy Thompson, who was also President Bush’s handpicked Secretary of Health and Human Services during Mr. Bush’s first term. Thompson is now on the board of directors for the Veri-Chip Corporation and is preaching the virtues of implanting a computer chip in every human being. In July, 2005, Tommy Thompson promised to have a chip implanted in his own body but has refused to have the procedure done saying that he doesn’t have time for the implant.
One of the reasons given for Americans to surrender their rights to privacy is that another terror attack is imminent. It is true that another attack is imminent, but who are the real terrorists? President Bush is failing miserably as a President and he knows it. Scandals are emerging, his ratings have fallen to an all-time low, and his war in Iraq is becoming unpopular. The President needs a terror attack very badly to weld the American people behind him. Mr. Bush needs a shell-shocked population that is so stunned by a heinous attack that they will yield and become submissive to a strong arm of authority. Yes, another terror attack is imminent, and there are those in high places that know how to make them happen.
As previously mentioned, the war in Iraq is becoming unpopular. It is becoming increasingly clear that a country like Iraq that has been in civil war and war with its neighbors from time immemorial is not going to become peaceful because of the presence of Americans and their ideals. Not only are countless thousands on both sides dead and maimed, but many of the bodies of our fallen heroes are not being properly honored but are being shipped home as common freight in luggage compartments. There was a time when the returning dead military personnel returned home with a flag-draped coffin and were honored with a color guard, not in the belly of a commercial airliner in a box as common freight! When one couple, John and Stacey Holly, found out that their only child, Matthew, who was a medic with the 101st Airborne Division, was to be shipped back this way they raised such a commotion that it forced the government to show due honor.
