For those who want to know why tensions these days feel so elevated—why headlines keep circling Jewish identity, Islamic claims, Christian end‑times talk—the short answer is that Jerusalem’s Temple Mount sits at the junction of theology and sovereignty, where small shifts can echo like earthquakes and often do more and more these days. Since 1967, Israel has retained overall security control in East Jerusalem while delegating day-to-day religious administration of the Mount to the Jordanian-backed Islamic Waqf—the long-standing “status quo” under which Jews may visit but overt Jewish prayer has been restricted, and Al‑Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock remain under Waqf management. That arrangement has been incrementally eroded and repeatedly contested, with some Israeli politicians openly praying on the Mount and advocacy groups pressing for expanded Jewish worship, while Jordan, the Palestinian Authority, and others warn that changes risk broader violence. Over time, there has been so much violence involved with that piece of real estate that, regardless of the threats, the Jewish people are preparing to retake the Temple. 1234 This isn’t just some fringe group in Jerusalem making these plans; it has operated in the background for hundreds of years. Everyone in Masonic circles knows about Hiram Abiff, the architect of the first Temple, and that Sykes-Picot was always behind this story, and that the creation of the state of Israel after World War II was this intention to rebuild the Temple and get back into the sacrifice cycle that the Temple performed for over a thousand years. There is a lot of effort behind this momentum that is colliding at this particular moment in history, and there really isn’t anything Muslims can do to stop it. The Jewish people are the oldest known people in the world to have remained intact, and they believe that to be close to God, they must restore his house so he can literally reside on Earth in his home, and must be fed through sacrifice the contents of a voracious appetite of animal blood.
Within parts of Orthodox and evangelical circles, preparatory efforts linked to a future Third Temple—from crafting ritual vessels to interest in the red heifer purification rite described in Numbers 19—regularly attract media attention. Most people in the media, in politics, and even in theology don’t understand the scope of this situation and how it translates into the United States. When the Jewish people are accused of all that they are, and for being in control of so much of our modern world, especially economically, the end goal for them is the rebuilding of the Temple. And a partnership with the United States gives them the scale and weight to execute their long-term plans. In 2025, organizers publicized a practice run of a red‑heifer burning (not the formal rite required by traditional rabbinic standards), and there have been conflicting claims about whether any heifers currently meet halakhic criteria; some religious institutions have trained would-be priests and reconstructed implements, while others emphasize the legal, halakhic, and geopolitical barriers. The ritual itself—rare, exacting, and historically attested in rabbinic sources—remains halakhically complex and politically explosive given the Mount’s Islamic sanctuaries. Right now, out of five red heifers bred in Texas, Jewish authorities believe they have two. 5678910
On the militant front, Hamas has explicitly framed the October 7, 2023, attack (“Al‑Aqsa Flood”) in religious‑national terms, repeatedly declaring Jerusalem and Al‑Aqsa as the conflict’s core. Its official documents claim the assault was a “necessary step,” emphasize Al‑Aqsa’s Muslim sanctity, and deny intentional targeting of civilians—statements contradicted by extensive evidence and casualty counts; the movement continues to cast any shift on the Mount as existential. Whatever one’s view of prophecy or politics, the practical reality is that any perceived move toward “Jewish sovereignty” on the Mount—whether expanded prayer or talk of Temple reconstruction—triggers immediate backlash from Hamas, the PA, Jordan, and others, with regional and global reverberations. 111213 What all this means is that there is no scenario in which Islam maintains control over the Temple Mount, and the time is very near when the Jewish people are planning to move back onto it, which means everything that is there now will be erased away. So the spill-over conflicts, such as the hostile terrorist attacks in the United States, and the efforts to build mosques in Texas for Islam, are to erode what they think of as the Big Satan, by supplying Israel with the military power to defend itself from further attacks. A lot of people are saying that Trump is the anti-Christ who is ushering in peace in the Middle East, and is taking away the leverage that Hamas has through fear over the region. By making peace, they lose the Temple Mount because it only emboldens the Jewish people to reclaim their sovereignty over it. It has only been the threat of violence that has kept the Jewish people from rebuilding the Temple up to this point. So there is no scenario where there is peace for all parties involved. Regulating the Jewish people to only pray at the Wailing Wall has been ridiculous and was always poised to a spillover point.
Historically, even emperors were singed by this terrain—Julian’s 363 CE attempt to rebuild the Temple is recorded in both pagan and Christian sources, with reports that fires erupted near the foundations, halting the works. Whether natural phenomena or theological messaging, those accounts underline how fiercely charged the site has been for centuries. Today, polling on a Third Temple is fragmentary and politically inflected, but the legal and diplomatic constraints—from status-quo understandings to security controls and international reactions—are heavy. Any durable path forward will be less about end-times scripts and more about clear legal frameworks, de-escalation mechanisms, and credible guarantees of access for all faiths—because the place where prophecy meets police lines is where small changes become significant crises. 1415
Many would even go so far to say, in Masonic circles, that the creation of the United States, the New Jerusalem was made to enable all this to happen, the re-creation of the State of Israel, the acquisition of the greatest military in the world, so that war in the Middle East could efficiently be utilized to fight the Islamic forces practicing their caliphate over the region. Everyone has played nicely together for over a thousand years, but the Crusades never stopped, and there are very dedicated efforts behind finance, politics, and religion to make a move for Temple restoration once and for all. So this debate that we are having, this anti-Israel position, the anti-Jew talk, the utterings of anti-Christ emergence, it all falls on deaf ears because the momentum is moving in the direction of rebuilding the Temple for the third time, and even Jesus was reluctant to say when and where. But to fulfill the Messianic promise, the Temple has to be rebuilt, and it is the story, behind the story, behind the story of our modern news cycle. And there is nothing that Islam will be able to do to prevent it from happening. And that is why all the deterioration is happening now, on every front. And the fight between Christians and Jews is that the Jewish people refuse to accept Christ as the Messiah because, unless he rebuilds the temple, he cannot be the Messiah. But for Christ, the body was the Temple, and for that to be true, it ruins thousands of years of carefully constructed plans to feed literal blood to the deity Yahweh and maintain an ancient order rooted in sacrifice. Yet Jesus, through his acts, took away the need.

You know the feeling when something awful happens in a place that prides itself on being civilized, thoughtful, safe, and should represent the best of what the human race is, but instead, we get hazy excuses and an obvious diversion from what the truth presents. That’s where Brown University ended up after a school shooter unleashed a terror that was purposeful and laced with evil. A packed review session for Principles of Economics, the biggest class on campus, half the undergrads take it, stadium seating in that first-floor lecture hall in Barus & Holley, doors at the top, TAs running the show, and then chaos—someone comes through those doors, yells something unintelligible in the panic, and starts firing. Students scrambling down rows to get lower, some shot, some trampled, alarms, sirens, the whole nightmare—and then a lockdown that stretches for hours while families text, call, pray, and wait. That’s the scene; it’s not conjecture. Professor Rachel Friedberg told reporters the TA described that exact sequence: doors, a shout, gunfire, scramble. Nearly all of those shot were students; two died that day. 12
From minute one, the mechanics of the response mattered. You could see the institutional muscle memory kick in—alerts pushed to phones, shelter-in-place orders, police perimeter, “RUN, HIDE, FIGHT” language in the official notice. Within an hour, Brown’s president said two from the university community were dead; later briefings clarified the count—two dead, nine wounded, most in critical but stable condition—and confirmed that the shooting happened inside a classroom during finals. The police and FBI released surveillance clips: a stocky figure in dark clothing, face masked, moving around the neighborhood before the attack, caught again crossing Hope Street as police cruisers with lights flashing arrived at the scene. The timeline—about 4:03 p.m. for the shooting, 4:07 p.m. for that clip—was explicit; investigators even asked the public to study the body language to see if it sparked recognition. 345
Here’s where I’m at on the issue, because I’ve been saying for years that modern surveillance, paired with AI pattern analysis, can collapse manhunts from weeks into hours if the institutions decide they want the speed more than they want the story managed. The gait stood out, yes—law enforcement and media experts flagged the unique, waddling cadence, the hurried cross-mid-block stride, the right hand in pocket, and the loitering pre-attack pacing. That’s all on tape. But while a body-language expert can talk about “markers,” the discipline of turning that to a name requires clean, corroborated links—vehicles, plate readers, rental contracts, receipts, corroborating cameras—because if you try to “enhance” a masked face with consumer AI and call it evidence, you don’t just get noise; you get harm. That’s not my opinion alone; local broadcasters ran analyses warning that AI reconstructions of masked faces are statistical guesses, not reconstructions, and can lead to doxxing and false accusations. In that sense, the authorities’ public posture—“help us with gait and posture, not with invented faces”—was technically prudent. 67
But prudence doesn’t restore trust. Asking people to trust after decades of institutional hedging is like asking a bruised muscle to sprint. Students lit Hanukkah candles under lockdown snow the next night, rabbis and the mayor speaking against a backdrop of grief and uncertainty, and speculation churned online about motive—was this connected to the Jewish identity of the professor? Was it random? Was it ideological? Officials initially said they couldn’t name the suspect, and the motive was unclear. The campus felt the vacuum, and vacuums invite narratives. 89
Meanwhile, the world wasn’t quiet. On that same weekend, a father-and-son pair opened fire on a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach in Sydney. Authorities there called it a terrorist attack inspired by Islamic State ideology, found two ISIS flags in a car, and said the suspects had traveled to the Philippines weeks prior; the victims ranged from a 10-year-old girl to a Holocaust survivor. Leaders promised tightened gun laws, and journalists confirmed the attempted disarming of one gunman by a bystander—Ahmed al Ahmed—who was shot while saving lives. You can mark the contrast: officials clearly named ideology, travel, devices, firearms licenses, and even the number of guns. In Australia, they showed the receipts—and promised reforms. 1011
Back to Rhode Island—there was a long stretch of days when Providence officials asked for footage, published a map of streets to canvass, and said flatly, “We still don’t know who the person is or where he is.” People kept asking why the investigation felt slow. The attorney general said they had “actual physical evidence,” including DNA, that they were working through; the FBI posted a $50,000 reward and shared a video timeline. Hundreds of tips poured in; one person of interest was detained—and released when the evidence didn’t hold. The official line was careful; the campus mood was unsteady. 121314
Then came the break. It wasn’t gait analysis that cracked it open—it was a custodian’s memory, a description of a suspicious Nissan with Florida plates, and the network effect of license-plate cameras and rental-counter paperwork. Once the detectives traced the vehicle, they obtained the name, pulled the rental footage, and matched the clothing and satchel to the images from Hope Street. That led them north across multiple states to a storage facility in Salem, New Hampshire, where the suspect—Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, 48, a Portuguese national and former Brown physics doctoral student from the early 2000s—was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot, with guns and matching evidence nearby. Investigators later said they were also confident he had fatally shot an MIT professor, Nuno F. G. Loureiro, at his home days after the Brown attack. With that, the press conferences got definitive: identity, movement, car, storage unit, firearms, interstate warrants, and a closed case—“We are 100% confident that this is our target.” 1516
Do you hear the rhetorical scrape there? For days, the messaging was uncertain and public help was sought; then, in an instant, it became certainty and closure—but closure without a motive. The U.S. attorney said they didn’t know “why Brown” or “why now.” The governor lauded professionalism and said the unthinkable happened. The university clarified the suspect’s past enrollment and withdrawal dates. And Washington moved on policy—pausing the diversity visa lottery program after officials said the suspect had gained permanent residency through it years earlier. For families, the policy swing doesn’t restore the missing person in the group photo or erase the trauma of barricaded rooms. For the public, it felt like a familiar script: massive lag, then sudden certainty, no motive, and a fresh policy hammer that lands faster than the story of “why.” 1718
I’ll say the quiet part out loud: people have lost faith in the way elite institutions and public agencies narrate the truth under pressure. It isn’t simply ideology; it’s pattern recognition born from repetition. When authorities say “we have no idea” while also asking citizens to analyze gait and posture, the precision of modern surveillance feels conspicuously underused—until a break comes from a janitor on Reddit who notices a car that matches his memory. When the very same weekend presents a comparative case abroad in which law enforcement explicitly names ideological inspiration and shows the chain of evidence, it throws Rhode Island’s cautiousness into sharper relief, whether you agree with it or not. 199
Now, let’s be rigorous about the AI claim. In theory, yes: combine high-resolution video, gait signatures, anthropometric metrics, and citywide camera networks with license-plate readers, and you can shrink the suspect pool to a handful. In practice, Providence officials publicly leaned on posture cues while emphasizing they were combing “terabytes of data” for “a moment shorter than a breath.” That suggests two things: first, the imagery they had wasn’t strong enough for facial recognition; second, they needed the car to anchor the identity. Once the vehicle entered the story, the rest snapped into place—rental desk, documents, clothing, satchel, routes, storage unit. The resolution didn’t come from gait alone; it came from the classic triad of witness memory, instrumented roads, and transactional paper trails. 920
Does that mean there was no “cover-up mode”? I can say that multiple outlets reported public frustration with the pace, and officials’ answers were too careful by design. They were also consistent in their lack of a named suspect—until they had one. And because the suspect died by suicide, you can’t cross-examine his timeline in court. That adds oxygen to conspiracies: a killer found dead, firearms present, case closed—no trial, no cross-examination, no motive, no sworn testimony from the defendant. If you’ve followed enough of these events, you know the narrative pressure points. But pressure points aren’t proof of deception. Proof rides on documents, timestamps, chain-of-custody, ballistics, travel records, and phone metadata; according to authorities, their confidence rested on that stack. 15
There is a lot to be concerned with. I understand the instinct: pushback against bureaucratic hesitation to name a violent, extremist motivation when it exists, and a call to stop euphemizing it. That’s justified when evidence supports it. In Sydney, senior officials and the prime minister explicitly said the attack was inspired by Islamic State ideology, citing ISIS flags and devices. They didn’t smear all Muslims; they named a violent extremist as it happened. That distinction matters. It’s why mainstream Muslim leaders and everyday Muslims often stand up first to condemn such violence, because they reject the perversion of their faith. The Bondi coverage included witness heroism by a Muslim Syrian immigrant who risked his life to disarm a gunman—facts that complicate broad-brush claims and remind us that the line is between extremists and everyone else. 1011
Back at Brown, online speculation immediately mapped a motive—Jewish professor, Jewish studies affiliation, finals week, world context. The Providence Journal made clear that, at least in the early days, authorities had not indicated an antisemitic motive and cautioned readers against jumping to conclusions. Other outlets amplified the classroom details and the professor’s biography without asserting a motive. The sober position was that these facts are relevant but not determinative. In hindsight, once the suspect was identified as a former physics student with old ties to the building and with a separate alleged killing of an MIT physicist two days later, the working narrative shifted from ideology to the suspect’s personal path, still without motive. That absence keeps the speculation alive, but again, speculation is not evidence. 216
That doesn’t mean the public should be docile. Ask for transparency. Demand the release of non-sensitive investigation timelines, anonymized chain-of-custody summaries, camera maps, ballistic counts, and forensic procedure summaries. It is entirely appropriate to ask why, in a campus saturated with cameras and controlled-access doors, it took the outside tip to tie the car to the suspect, and whether earlier deployment of license-plate analytics could have shortened the search. Authorities did say they were analyzing terabytes and looking for “moments shorter than a breath,” but post-incident review could compare actual practice against best-practice benchmarks—how quickly do you push plate-reader networks, and who holds the trigger to expand search radii beyond city lines? Those are procedural questions, not ideological accusations. 9
And there’s a separate theme that is critical here: gun-free zones as magnets for predation. The Australian case complicates that idea—New South Wales has some of the strictest gun laws in the western world, and officials are now proposing even laws more stringent after the attack, while acknowledging that one gunman legally owned six firearms. In Providence, the shooter carried a 9mm handgun and fired more than forty rounds; the campus went into lockdown; the suspect fled. Whether a “gun-free zone” policy on an Ivy League campus changes the tactical reality of a fast indoor attack is a hard discussion, and different jurisdictions answer it differently. What the record shows here is a rapid, lethal attack and a suspect who escaped—followed by a multi-day search, which could have been resolved if someone in that class could have shot back, immediately. 104
AI’s ability to identify someone from gait within minutes would have pointed authorities in the right direction quickly if they wanted to use it. But, instead authorities dug in with a narrative acting like we were in the 1950s again. They knew right away through computer analysis who the shooter was. But what they needed was a story that fit the scenario and wouldn’t open up a whole new can of worms, even if they had to open up a whole can of new worms to divert everyone’s attention to something else. Technically, gait biometrics can reduce search pools, but most U.S. departments do not have turnkey, court-hardened gait-to-ID pipelines, and the legal risks of false matches are nontrivial. That’s why investigators publicly asked for help with posture recognition while privately chasing corroborating leads. But they were stalling for time.
The deeper historical piece—is that high-capacity surveillance changes evidentiary expectations. When officials deploy city cameras and ask the public for “any footage,” people expect 24-hour clarity. If they don’t get it, they suspect misdirection. But surveillance still relies on links—vehicle-to-person, person-to-transaction, transaction-to-route. Brown’s investigators said they were overwhelmed with tips and terabytes; the bottleneck wasn’t will—it was filtering. And that’s perhaps the most honest critique: if institutions are going to lean on surveillance-heavy narratives (“we have enhanced video”), they need surge capacity to parse the data within hours, not days. 14
As is usual these days we are dealing with institutional incompetence that terrorist minded individuals, and groups use to unleash their intents of violence. Below is a timeline that shows a lot of chaos that wraps up suddenly, under a lot of pressure, too neatly, an attempt to make a homeless person the hero of the story instead of the very defined evidence produced by the walk of the killer and the vulnerability of the university security. Or the motivations of radical Islam that may have been connected to the shooting. Early reports suggested that the shooter yelled out Islamic references during the violence. The police reported that he barked like a dog.
Here’s what I think happened: Brown University had a small pocket of radical leftists who moved to shoot up the classroom of a Jewish professor, and a particular student was targeted in the attack who was affiliated with the Christian religion. The attack was purposeful on a Saturday as opposed to other days because it was the second day of Hanukkah. The apparent target of the attack was young, 19-year-old Ella Cook, a very Christian student who had considered motherhood the highest calling. The proximity of the bullets in her direction lends purpose to the observation. And instantly Brown University went into cover-up mode, knowing they had a major problem on their hands that involved an ideology they support, the Muslim overthrow of Western Civilization. And to contain the panic from the press, they tried to buy time. Meanwhile, intelligence agents found some loser who was going nowhere in life, and set him up to be the killer. This is an easy thing to do with MK Ultra techniques such as was the case with Operation Chaos involving Charlie Manson and the Family of the Helter Skelter killings. Once the proposed killer had left a correct paper trail that they could deflect to, they put his body in that storage unit and orchestrated the evidence to cause his discovery, so they could close this case to almost everyone’s satisfaction. But, that is far from the case. That’s my opinion based on what is known so far.

Every great mystery has a ripple effect, and few are as intriguing as the Copper Scroll discovered near Qumran in the early 1950s. Unlike the other Dead Sea Scrolls, this one wasn’t written on parchment—it was etched into copper, listing 64 hiding places for gold and silver from the Jewish Temple. Scholars estimate its value at over $1 billion in today’s terms, with some claims reaching into the trillions. Yet, despite decades of archaeological interest, none of these treasures has ever been found. Why does that matter? Because when you look at the explosion of wealth in the Middle East—cities like Dubai rising from sand into skylines—it’s hard not to wonder if oil alone explains it. Or was there an older, deeper source of capital fueling this transformation?
The Copper Scroll isn’t just a curiosity; it’s a potential key to understanding how wealth and ideology intersect. If even a fraction of that treasure had been quietly recovered, it could have seeded fortunes that later shaped geopolitics. And here’s the main problem: you can’t dig under the Temple Mount today. Religious and political tensions make it a no-go zone for serious archaeology. That means the truth—whether the treasure was looted and monetized—remains buried, literally and figuratively. But the circumstantial evidence is compelling: a region that was economically stagnant for centuries suddenly becomes a global financial powerhouse in less than 50 years. Oil was the public story. Was the Copper Scroll the private one? I would say that the answer is an emphatic yes. And yes, that could easily be validated by archaeology at the Temple Mount, by digging in the places indicated by the Copper Scroll. The Dead Sea Scrolls in general have been very trustworthy, and regarding the Copper Scroll specifically, the dismissal of it as suddenly fiction makes you raise your eyebrows at those who say so, especially as you trace their personal ideology to Islam.
To understand the modern Middle East, you have to rewind to the Crusades. Between the 11th and 15th centuries, Islamic states controlled lucrative trade routes, enriching themselves and European city-states like Venice and Genoa. But after the Ottoman Empire’s decline, the region languished economically—until the 20th-century oil boom. In 1970, Saudi Arabia’s GDP per capita was under $1,000. Today, it’s $34,441, projected to hit $65,847 (PPP) by 2027. The UAE tells a similar story: Dubai went from a sleepy port to a global hub of finance and luxury in just a few decades. Yes, oil explains part of it—but not all of it. The sheer scale of wealth, the speed of transformation, and the ability to bankroll ideological movements worldwide suggest deeper roots.
Consider this: the Copper Scroll describes treasure hidden during times of crisis—likely when the Romans sacked Jerusalem in 70 CE. That wealth didn’t vanish; it was concealed. If recovered centuries later, it could have provided the seed money for dynasties and states. And when you combine that with oil revenues and modern financial engineering—hedge funds, private equity, sovereign wealth funds—you get a perfect storm of capital capable of reshaping global politics, which brings us to ideology.
Here’s a statistic that should make you pause: Two-thirds of U.S. Muslims favor larger government and social welfare programs, according to Pew Research. Globally, Islamic socialism has deep roots, blending Quranic principles like zakat with Marxist ideals. Movements in Iran, Pakistan, and Palestine during the 20th century openly embraced socialist frameworks. Why does this matter? Because when you look at radical Islamic movements today, many share ideological DNA with Marxism—centralized control, anti-capitalist rhetoric, and revolutionary zeal. You don’t see mosques preaching free-market capitalism; you see calls for redistribution, resistance, and dominance.
This ideological overlap isn’t accidental. It’s strategic. Marxism offers a political playbook for dismantling Western systems, while Islam provides a religious framework for mobilization. Together, they form a potent alliance against Western civilization as a whole. And when you add money—lots of it—you get influence campaigns, political candidates, and cultural incursions. Case in point: the election of a devout Muslim mayor in New York who also espouses socialist policies. Twenty years after 9/11, that’s not just irony; it’s a sign of a long game being played.
So where does this leave us? With a hypothesis that deserves serious consideration: the Copper Scroll treasure, if recovered, could have been the silent catalyst behind a century of upheaval. It’s not just about gold and silver; it’s about what wealth enables—power, ideology, and the ability to shape civilizations. Oil was the cover story, but perhaps the real story began in a cave near Qumran, etched into copper by hands that knew the stakes. Today, that wealth—whether ancient or modern—funds a movement that isn’t just religious but deeply political, aligned with Marxist principles and aimed at dismantling Western civilization.
You won’t hear this theory in mainstream discourse. It’s too uncomfortable, too complex. But look at the patterns: sudden wealth, ideological aggression, political infiltration, and a region locked in perpetual tension over a piece of land where archaeology could blow the lid off everything. Until someone digs under the Temple Mount, we may never know for sure. But the circumstantial evidence is strong enough to ask: Is the greatest crime in history still shaping our world today? That’s not just a rhetorical question, it’s a serious one about the rise of a global power and the funding of an anti-capitalist movement against the United States, the New Atlantis: seed wealth and its origin. The Copper Scroll indicates that something of great value was in those locations. And whenever there is a treasure map, of course, there will always be treasure hunters who will seek fortune and glory in the wake of such a discovery. But that none of that vast treasure has ever been found, with all the attention applied to it, and that investigation into the matter is not allowed, due to religious zeal, paints a different picture as to what happened to all that wealth. Based on merit, we can trust that the Copper Scroll wasn’t just a work of fantasy, so what happened to all that treasure?
The answer is simple and can be validated by science: there are many tunnels under the Temple Mount, but the restrictions under Islamic occupation prevent any serious investigation. And that concealment is what we should take note of, especially when you see how Zohan Mamdani refrained from his speech after he won the election in New York as not only a radical member of the Islamic community, but an open Marxist. He went from a friendly TikToker to a vile Marxist overlord, like a Fidel Castro type. And when you see a friendly face in front of vast amounts of wealth, trying to prevent an investigation into the historical circumstances of that wealth creation, now you have something much bigger than a Scooby Doo mystery. Without the Copper Scrolls, we wouldn’t even know to ask the question, but their discovery causes a pause in assuming that everyone has been honest with each other. Knowing that one culture stole the treasure of another would cause significant global tension if the victimized culture were still around. Usually, when treasure is stolen from one culture and transferred to another, the previous culture is left for destruction. But the Jewish people are still around, and in many ways, the Christian crusades never came to a resolution. Only the emergence of Western civilization led to their continued growth, as capitalism became the new treasure, replacing the old. And now two powers stand at odds against each other, propped up through time in ways that history usually doesn’t endure. And the source of all the tension likely comes down to the stolen treasure indicated in the great and magnificent Copper Scrolls of the Dead Sea, found in the caves of Qumran.
After Trump posted support for Douglas Murray’s book, On Democracies and Death Cults: Israel and the Future of Civilization, I bought it quickly and read it because I wanted to know what Trump’s position on these hostage negotiations was with Hamas. There are 48 total, with only 20 still alive, but none of them are in good shape. Trump was wise to point to that particular book as an example of his policy on the issue, because it can be confusing. But here’s the thing: it’s nice to do everything you can to save those poor people who have been hostages to Hamas. And to return those bodies to their families. But the solution is a deep one that I think will require much worse than Israel wants to do to all these Palestinian neighbors. There is no way to achieve peace, and a two-state solution will never be realized. One side will have to eliminate the other, and that will be the end of it. That is the only way at this point. The foundations of the religions at play are meant to provoke each other into conflict, and this is serving a greater evil that is far at work beyond normal sentiment. There is a real lust for the death of the people involved that looms in the background. And just for the record, when people ask me about AI and if I use it. The answer is no, there is no AI program in the world, and I don’t think there ever will be, that can write the way I do. It can attempt to copy my style, but it can’t think in the way I approach writing my articles. AI could not write this article from scratch because it would require it to exceed human capacity to do so. To answer the question, no, I don’t use AI. I do it the old-fashioned way because that’s the only way it works.
I say all that because I think there is only one solution, especially after you read Murray’s book. I’m not particularly impressed with Murray as a person; he is way too progressive for me and way too accepting of drug use. There was a lot of drug use going on at that Nova dance party in southern Israel when Hamas ruthlessly attacked them over their Gaza Strip war. Gaza is one of those positions where Israel tried to play nice and let the Palestinians live in some co-existence. However, the terrorist mindset in the region simply cannot and won’t do it. And they never will. The minds at play are poisoned with hate, and we have to deal with that before we do anything, which is a radical leftist issue that is global. It plays out beyond the façade of religion in the Middle East, as a validation between indigenous people and their territorial captors, as is the issue over the creation of Israel to begin with. The primary assumption is that the Jewish people should not exist. And the creation of Western Civilization behind biblical history should never have happened. I know a lot more about this issue because I am very interested in the archaeology of the region and the politics on dig sites. At the most fundamental level, the situation is irreparable. Islam is determined never to admit that there was ever a First Temple period, and they work really hard to make sure that science can never find anything from that period, which predates Islam by almost 2000 years. There is a significant amount of historical revisionism occurring to validate their current political stance, which is unacceptable.
Israel itself is way too progressive; the drug use at that festival was not appropriate for the young people who were slaughtered for no reason. And the way Bibi Netanyahu has been untrustworthy as a leader of Israeli politics, claiming power, reveals how fractured the government really is at the highest levels. The solution to it all is a much more conservative government and people far less inclined to liberal ideas. The raids into border towns like Nir Oz, which had Hamas raiders going door to door and ripping out people from their homes and killing them ruthlessly, would not have happened if Israel had more guns in the hands of private citizens. To answer the question about why such a thing as this doesn’t happen in the United States, it is because of the mass gun ownership that we have. The same terrorists, using different masks, attack, and they kill ruthlessly and often. Consider the recent situation involving Charlie Kirk. It’s the same kind of leftist evil that is corrupting so many young people; there isn’t much difference between Charlie Kirk’s killer and the young people of Hamas who ruthlessly killed so many at the music festival and raided the homes of innocent people at Nir Oz. But the incident cannot be widespread in America because every home is so well armed with personal firearms. Terrorist elements would love to go door to door, raping and killing people in the suburbs of America. However, they can’t because people can retaliate if the government fails them. And in Israel, the government failed the people. They should have known an attack was coming. It took them too long to respond. And it all could have been solved with wider gun ownership. So Israel and its way-too-democratic government are too liberal to start with, which has caused them many of the problems they do have. Without the United States, Israel would not exist, and everyone knows it.
The solution to the problem is not at the level of government. The United States can’t get drawn into fighting Israel’s battles for it. If we are going to say Israel should exist because God wants it to and we want to serve God, then let’s get serious. Send in private contractors to wipe out Hamas wherever they are, pay them $100k per head, and hunt them down like dogs. The solution to the violence is a lot more violence by private citizens. I would volunteer for that. I’d be happy to go and be a private contractor by going door to door where Hamas lives in Gaza, and other places, and just getting rid of them. Forget about the armies, those are too structured. Just take the violence to the enemy with profit-minded contractors, and beat the political left with their own game of terror, and stop playing nice. I think it’s commendable that Trump is trying to secure the release of those hostages. It’s a reasonable effort to try to make peace. But, to really solve the problem, Hamas has to be hunted down and destroyed where they sleep. That is the only way. All the Hezbollah activity in the region, and the funding support that comes from Qatar and Iran, are just too deep. When books like Mein Kampf and The Protocols of the Elders of Zion are as popularly sold in book stores in that region as they are, there is a much deeper evil at work for any logical negotiations. And that evil wants the blood of humans for its personal consumption. The only way to deal with it is to flood it with the blood of its own supporters. Not the innocent. And that is the only way. I’m happy Trump is willing to try. But the only solution is a lot of blood from the bad guys. And the best definition of good in all human history has been defined by the Holy Bible. And that’s the foundation of the entire fight. You can’t make peace with that evil. It has to be destroyed, and nothing else.
Considering that we just fought a war over the very topic of Islam, we have to discuss that an absurdity is at the core of all social discourse. What’s the big difference between Islam and the Bible among the major religions of the world? The Bible was written by many people over a long period and is corroborated by other documents, such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, to validate that the authors were more than fanciful fiction writers. On the other hand, the Quran was revealed to Muhammad through the angel Gabriel over 23 years. So to believe the Quran, we have to accept the premise of its creation and trust that Muhammad wasn’t just another snake oil selling scam artist looking for attention in the world by creating another religion. In 1823, at the age of 14, Joseph Smith was visited by an angel named Moroni, who revealed the location of some golden plates buried near his home in New York State, near the Finger Lakes. Then, using Urim and Thummim (of which the nature is unknown) and other seer stones, Smith translated the plates into the Book of Mormon in 1830. Both of those major religions were founded by individuals who claimed to have been visited by an angel, and we are expected to accept their word completely and trust that what they imparted is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. We are not supposed to think that the recipients of this information might be con artists looking for attention, or that they weren’t crazy people in their own right. However, they were chosen by God to convey information to the people of Earth. Strangely, the same people would point to the religion of Islam and say that we can’t question anything about it, while they would say that the Mormon religion was founded under the premise of a con artist trying to rob Native American people from their inheritance of domestic tranquility, by the Christian rantings of immigrant raiders.
I have thought that the most logical explanation for the Mormons was that Joseph Smith was a homesick immigrant into America wanting to continue the Bible’s influence into the New World, so they created stories to expand the Biblical narrative, which involves a couple of different migrations from the Holy Land to the American continent taking place many thousands of years ago. One of the most significant migrations occurred when the prophet Lehi, guided by God, fled Jerusalem around 600 BCE, eventually landing in the Americas, specifically in the area now known as Florida, just to the west of modern-day Tallahassee. And from there, they formed two tribes, the Nephites and the Lamanites. Primarily, the Nephites settled in the area of modern-day Ohio, and their presence is evident in the Adena Indians and Hopewell people, as well as in their mound-building cultures, which featured advanced mathematical concepts. When I first read the Book of Mormon many years ago, I thought of the area they were talking about as being in Central America and even in the Gulf of America when the water levels were lower. But it’s a fascinating book that I thought could have been the product of a fantastic story of adventure and continued discovery by a people hungry for more Bible stories, in a world that didn’t have much else going on in 1830. However, there has been some excellent research, which I find particularly interesting, especially from a society that seeks to validate a religion by uncovering compelling evidence of its existence. The more you learn about the mound-building cultures, the more valid the origin story of the Mormon religion reveals itself. The people at Book of Mormon Evidence.org have a wealth of fascinating material that, according to them, provides evidence of the Mormon migration into North America as a tribe of Israel. And once here, they mixed with people who were ancient descendants of Atlantis and the Pacific island of Mu, as well as other places.
There are some rather wild claims, but upon examining the evidence, legitimate questions arise. And if we apply the same logic as we do to Islam, we have to believe the Book of Mormon just as much as we do the Quran because they were created under the same pretense of assumption. The only reason we couldn’t believe the Book of Mormon is if we accept that human beings could not travel by boat until Christopher Columbus did so in 1492. Instead, it looks like humans were traveling all over the world in ships many thousands of years ago and that the Columbus missions were built off the maps he used to sail over the horizon of the earth with full knowledge that it was round, and that there was a mysterious land on the horizon that would connect it to a trade route with the east. Once settled, during American expansionism, during the period when the Mormon religion was created, many of the thousands and thousands of mounds that were attributed to Indians were destroyed to farming and the building of towns, and that the people did record the bones of giant people that were in the mounds, as they built over them and destroyed so much of the evidence. However, in some cases, there are obvious Jewish influences evident in the mounds that would not be part of any simple hunter-gatherer groups.
About 20 miles east of Cincinnati is a mound complex known as the Ohio Hanukkiah Mound, which is now gone, but it was recorded when it was discovered before farming destroyed it for good. It was built in the shape of a Menorah. Additionally, other Jewish-style artifacts have been found in numerous mounds, notably the Holy Stones located near the Newark complex, just outside modern-day Columbus. And based on that, and a lot of the well-researched maps provided by the Book of Mormon Evidence.org group, we see more validation of the Mormon religion spreading around the world as a lost tribe of Israel, than just the fanciful imaginings of Joseph Smith, a young kid who grew up into a snakeoil salesman to create a religion that allowed people to have more than one wife. And when we accept one religion and its premise over another one, we have to ask why the logic isn’t universal. And if we do find that the Mormons are the actual inhabitants of North America, along with descendants of Atlantis who have been in the New World for many thousands of years, dating back 250,000 years or more. Then how can we say that the Indians were the “indigenous people” as a tribe of nomads who happened across a land bridge during the Ice Age, and had no technology and were nature worshippers who deserve to have their land back from the mean migrants who came from Europe and took everything away from them. Instead, we see stories of Mormons who left a hostile region to pursue a better life. In those old Jewish cultures, there were teachings of Hermes, who brought advanced knowledge of astrology and the magical practices of the Kabbalah. The selection of Islam to be believed fits a political desire, not a scientific one. Because Joseph Smith has been ridiculed by academia as a hoax, while Islam’s Muhammad was not to be questioned as anything but a prophet and the direct hand of God, Allah. If we are going to accept one however, we have to take the other, and as far as evidence, the large amount of it in North America shows that the Jewish people had a large colony of people with very advanced ideas that were recorded in the Book of Mormon that provide some very intriguing viewpoints from a time not very well understood by modern science. And we have a lot more to learn.
I have a mild obsession with the city of Jerusalem, so there is a lot to talk about regarding the modern Middle East policy where that ancient city is concerned. The claims that Islam has over it are very recent, and it’s a simple math problem to work out as far as territory rights. The Arabs of Islam didn’t come along until about 600 A.D., after the fall of the Roman Empire, so claims to the area had long before been erased by the Greek and Roman Empires over a thousand years before. But before Islam indicated any claim to the area, especially around the Temple Mount, the most hostile piece of real estate on planet earth, the Hebrew people were in the region over three thousand years ago, 1600 years before the creation of Islam as a religion. I believe there was a very technological civilization in the area before any of them, including in North America, as it was global, and the only remnants of it are in our modern understanding of astrology. These people were large- what we call giants and had a very advanced civilization before and during the Ice Age. They used an astrology-like scientific approach to conduct a society that our history books do not yet understand. And they were at the Mount Moriah area for tens of thousands of years before the Jews considered settling it. One of their obvious artifacts of reference is Rujm el-Hiri, or Gilgal Refaim, “The Wheel of Giants,” which is so big you can see it from space, and it’s just west of the Sea of Galilee in the Golan Heights. When we talk about Goliath and his family of giants, who King David killed in battle, we are talking about the last of their ancient species, which is how Jerusalem was founded to start with, as David built his city there and started the location that would eventually become the temple of his son, Solomon.
I have a very nice map that shows the small mountain range that runs between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, and all these mountain peaks that are now covered by three thousand years of human history, built one on top of another, take up those high lands. The caves under the Temple Mount and Jerusalem were there long before anybody else. There are biblical kings, and others, who added a human touch, but there is a lot going on under Jerusalem that is very ancient, and doesn’t get talked about much at all. And is at the heart of the dispute in the Middle East. Do the Palestinians have any claim to the land? What is behind the aggressive talk Trump has put forth about making the Gaza Strip into an American free enterprise zone? Should the nation of Israel have ever been created after World War II? The argument is that we are violating the indigenous claims of the Arabs in the area, and they use the aggressive stance of Islam to drive away legitimate claims to history that the Jewish and Christian people clearly have a right to. More than that are the even more ancient cultures that we should be studying, but we can’t because of modern religious territorial squabbles that have no relevancy in the context of things. The history of understanding isn’t on a scale of acceptable criteria. Buried under all this religious history is a truth that is earth shattering and is at the heart of the whole problem. And it’s in those caves under the Temple Mount where Mount Moriah held significance long before Abraham tried to sacrifice Isaac there on that Foundation Stone, or from Islam, Ishmael.
I had the rare privilege of reading the book Under Jerusalem by Andrew Lawler, The Buried History of the World’s Most Contested City. I’m not one who constantly complains about how dumb archaeologists are and how they deliberately cover up the past with their discoveries. I get the game. They have to hustle to get funding, and the people giving them money want specific validation discovered with the digs. So, there is a lot of politics in archaeology. My favorite thing in the world is my Biblical Archaeology Review magazines, which I have been getting since childhood. I love reading about what archaeologists discover in the Holy Land. It is stunning how many feet of earth have been built up after three thousand years of people walking the streets of Jerusalem, and just how far under the modern city are the remains of the walled City of David. In some cases, we are dealing with 30 to 40 feet of ancient dirt, sewage, and garbage that has built up to become the modern ground. City streets in Jerusalem are not at the same level as they were during the time of David or earlier. And to get to the foundation layers of Solomon’s Temple, you would have to dig deep. The Second Temple period by Herod was 1000 years later, and many feet under even that period. Dirt comes in off people’s shoes over time, and it builds up slowly. And that’s just how old these sites are. But I’m saying that even with all those considerations, there are tens of thousands more years of history in that area. So we should be digging a lot more, giving archaeologists a lot more respect and money, and we should be openly prepared for what we learn during the adventure of discovery.
As to the Islamic claim of the Temple Mount and their abuse of the Jewish people who had the first claim on the land after they conquered it from the pagan worshipping Canaanites, they are just the most recent culture to claim it for themselves. They won’t let archaeologists dig under and around the Temple Mount to provide proof of the Jewish heritage. But then they claim that there is no proof of that Jewish heritage because it’s buried under 40 feet of soot because their time on Mount Moriah is so ancient that nearly two thousand years had to pass before Islam became a religion. The conflict and claims over the territory are entirely based on historical perspective, not a pursuit of the truth that is buried under layers of history on a range of small mountains that have been occupied for tens of thousands of years and of which the proof is in those caves under the Temple Mount. What we know about Derinkuyu, just to the north in Turkey, is that that underground city was dated to the same period as Solomon’s Temple and even much older in some layers of it. And, of course, the nearby Gobekli Tepe, dated in the 10,000 BCE range, has the same kind of math technology as the Rujm el-Hiri at the Golon Heights to the south. So what does all this mean? Well, Islam doesn’t have a legitimate claim to the area, not where they can demand that their heritage is more important than all this ancient history. And when they say, show me the proof, they can’t play games by denying dig permits and funding for the truth to be found. I would say that under the Mount Moriah complex is all the proof anybody needs. But Islam doesn’t want to know because then it would erode their political claims in the area and destroy their modern aggressions. Because they don’t want to see the truth. As many don’t because they are afraid of what they suspect to be the case. Giants ruled the earth and had a technology that was far more sophisticated than what we are achieving in a modern way. It was a different technology but undoubtedly very sophisticated and global. Eventually, we must admit to it if we want to advance.
It’s almost comical to see modern science tell us that the Serpent Mound in Ohio was built by Indians when they could barely get up each day to eat food. About an hour east of Cincinnati, the Serpent Mound is one of the most mysterious places on earth and is revered archaeologically as high or higher as the Great Pyramids of Giza. What makes Serpent Mound so astonishing is the very advanced mathematics and knowledge of the stars that it would have taken a culture thousands, if not millions of years, to develop. Admittedly, I have been to the Serpent Mound site lots of times. I have even gone there to think and get away from the world’s chaos on really bad days. If I’m having a terrible day, don’t be surprised if you find me there reading a book, or looking at some crop circle that sometimes happens across the street from the park entrance. When I go to Serpent Mound, I think about many things, but it’s never about Indians. The site was never intended to be a burial mound for a ceremonial culture. But a reference to the stars and, specifically, the constellation Draco. It truly has an ancient feeling to the place that is bizarrely intelligent, not the sentiments of a hunter-gatherer culture. Even more mysteriously, the entire site is built on the edge of a massive crater left over from a crypto explosion many millions of years ago. So, how did they know where to put the Serpent Mound when there isn’t any evidence to the naked eye of this explosion? The people who pay reverence to the site with the construction of Serpent Mound would have had to know what the geology under the ground would eventually show, and that is the alarming part of the place and the peek back in time toward an entirely different global civilization that nobody has yet figured out because they are asking all the wrong questions about the evidence that we do have. We had a global civilization of star worshipers who used to build earth effigies that contained very advanced mathematics. And something happened to them that was very traumatic.
It’s coming up a lot lately because of the recent terrorist attack in New Orleans from a radical practitioner of Islam; what is the primary difference between the Christian Bible and the Muslim Quran? That’s an interesting question because both religions have many of the same characters, so how could they have such a radically different approach to the world? One pronounced difference is that Islam and Christians have almost the same Adam and Eve story, except in Islam, the Devil is the villain. In the Jewish and Christian faiths, the snake gives Eve the apple and tells her to eat from the knowledge of good and evil. The more you dig, the more it is realized that the religion of the Arab people, the same descendants of Mesopotamia, and the original antagonizers from the Land of Canaan were these same people. And that Yahweh’s fight against them traces back to this essential difference. In Islam, the snake could be a jinn, a helpful or harmful spirit. This view of snakes traces back to an Empire of Snake worshippers who had an obsession with star worship and traumatic crises culturally when it comes to the memory of the constellation Draco, Sirius, and many others. Things get wild when we consider that Thuban, the pole star, lines up with Serpent Mound from approximately 3942 BCE to 1793 BCE. And if that was the only case with those dates, we might assume somebody made a mistake. But this same kind of math can be found in the Pyramids, Stonehenge, and even at another giant earth effigy just to the south of downtown Hamilton, Ohio, at the Fortified Hill complex, which during the same period lines up to the constellation Pleiades. If you want to check it out for yourself, just visit Pyramid Hill Park, and you’ll get a fascinating perspective on the scale of our subject.
To Islam, the snake is beneficial, just as it is viewed in most cultures of the world with ancient reverence, especially in the Orient, where serpents, dragons, and all species of snakes are seen as helpful entities, not enemies. But to Western culture, dragons are to be slain. Snakes are the embodiment of evil. And to this very day, at the center of conflict between Christianity and Islam is the reverence of the snake and what we should or shouldn’t be doing with them. For the same reasons that modern archaeologists can’t figure out the Serpent Mound’s relationship to the constellation Draco, they are looking for Indians who would evolve even to begin to understand those kinds of things. What they miss is a clear understanding of the kind of rebellion that Yahweh was advocating for, which is clearly expressed in the Bible as a crisis against the global power of snake worship that inspired the conquest of the land of Canaan to begin with. And that’s where things really start to get interesting, especially when the most common theme that emerges from the use of psychedelics in religion shares a relationship with snakes as one of the primordial terrors that come from visits to the spirit world today. Practitioners of the ayahuasca experience that shamans from South America utilize and have become very popular, know what I’m talking about. Most all experience snakes as dominant figures in that hidden kingdom. And it looks like it was primarily psychedelics in the form of mushrooms or other plant-based agents that helped form the basis for the world’s religions. And Yahweh was rebelling against the Empire of the Snakes, not submitting to them.
Therefore, we had an entire world that traded with each other for obviously tens of thousands of years. Probably much longer. They did not behave as modern scientist lazily concluded, and that is as hunter and gatherers who migrated to North America from the Jomon people emerging out of Japan and crossing the Bering Strait without any advanced knowledge of the greater heavens that wasn’t at the center of their worship, a crisis for them in great turmoil yearning for celestial bodies. I have also been to many Jomon sites in Japan, dating from 14,000 BCE to around 300 BCE. Many of their artifacts can be found buried offshore when sea levels were over 400 feet lower during the Ice Age. All this matters in understanding the vast difference in Western civilization, how it works, and why the East is and will always be at war with it. Islam is a religion of the East. Their concepts of the jinn, evil spirits, are almost identical to the Japanese kami and the spirits of the Indians. And they all stand, just as the land of Canaan did, against the advancement of Western civilization and its blaming of the snake for all that went wrong in the world, as opposed to an artificial Devil as Islam does. And with that straightforward distinction, we see the root cause of much of the trouble. The Empire of the Snake is old and global. It took a rebellion to stand against it and overthrow it, which was captured in the Jewish stories about the conquest of the Land of Canaan and why that was necessary. It also explains why those who still worship the snake have so much trouble in the world and why Western civilization can be said to be so much better. Because the anxiety of snake worship never took that global civilization to a healthy psychological place. We will find the same crises once we land on other stars, such as Mars, and find ourselves homesick to beliefs that resonated from those faraway places. Only to have a religion come along and fight against that ancient reverence and deal with what is before us in a psychologically healthy way. At the heart of that, we can then understand why Islam will always be at war with Christians because, for them, the snake and its old empire is a cry for home, a sense of belonging that they will never have again.
Although there is a lot wrong with the Matthew Livelsberger case out of Colorado Springs, the Shamsud Din Jabbar killer from New Orleans, where both terrorists took action on January 1st, 2025, to provoke a terrorist incident. I am very suspicious of Livelsberger because he was found with a gunshot to the head in a car that can drive itself—so given that he has been a Trump supporter in the past, it’s not quite the same case of Islamic radicalism that we saw from New Orleans. In both cases, we are probably dealing with third-party characters who used the misery of these two people to perform the terrorist actions, leaving people to ask a lot of questions, such as what is going on at Fort Bragg that causes all these ex-military people to have a switch go off in their head and to turn into terrorists. There is a lot there to consider. But the primary question, which is a global problem, is why young people are attracted to radical Islam, and how does that religion generate the kind of hate that causes suicide bombers intent to inflict mass carnage against entirely innocent people? As I watched hours and hours of explanations about how to deal with the problem of terrorists running around in a free society, it was evident that everyone was missing the main point in the matter: an irreconcilable matter that allows terrible people to use broken young men to perform their dirty work while the real perpetrators hide in secret societies and law firms plotting the demise of the world in a way that they can profit off of. I think we are seeing just the beginning of this kind of psychological war, and terror incidents like this, unfortunately, have to be expected. Many evil people have settled into government power, and it won’t be easy to dislodge them. And ahead of Trump coming back into office, this network of scum bags will be complex at work to terrorize people into not supporting President Trump’s government reforms, any way possible.
Before its release date, I read Jordan Peterson’s excellent new book, We Who Wrestle with God, over Thanksgiving weekend 2024, and I thought it was just fantastic. I like what Peterson is doing with applying psychology to the construction of the Bible and its meaning as a helpful articulation of the Western World and why it’s so successful while other places aren’t. It supports a long premise of mine that started essentially with the great Joseph Campbell, where a society’s mythology determines essentially the quality of life for the people in it. Someone sent me an advance copy to review, so by the time of these terrorist events at the start of 2025, I had time to think about the psychological side of social constructs that peek behind the curtain of organized religion in a way that I believe is at the heart of the problem. But nobody wants to look at Islam with quite the same kind of analysis, which then causes us to not have answers to the questions as to why Islam is a religion that tends to generate a radical element that wants to kill people. And why are they so much different than the Christian or Jewish version of some of the same Biblical characters? Given that, I think it is time we admit to ourselves why young terrorists like Shamsud Din Jabbar or the guy from Colorado Springs would entertain such a thought as to become a car bomber and blow up one of Elon Musk’s Cybertrucks in front of the incoming President’s excellent hotel in Las Vegas. And it comes down to the heart of Islam in a psychological way. Not a spiritual one. So when we ask the questions as to why, the first and most obvious place to look is at the story of Ishmael and Isaac, both sons of Abraham, but one was cast away and became the central figure of Islam. The other became the central figure of the Jews and Christian faith. It all flows from the institution of marriage to the core foundations of all Western civilization.
As I pointed out within minutes of both terrorist attacks to everyone asking me questions about them, both of the terrorists had problems with the women in their lives and had been rejected. And to a man, that rejection from a family member can be devastating. Also, as a primary consideration, Islam allows for the marriage of up to 4 wives so long as the husband can show that he can support them all. So, Islam has a very different view of what a marriage is than what is traditionally considered biblical. When Abraham couldn’t have children with his wife, Sarah talked him into having a son with her hand servant from Egypt, Hagar. She soon gave birth to Ishmael. But God stepped in and made it so Sarah could give birth, and she soon brought forth Isaac. And Abraham, under God’s counsel, cast away his firstborn son and his mother and made Isaac his favorite. This act of being rejected by the father is at the heart of the matter among all Muslims, including Barack Obama. They all have in common worldwide: broken families and a sense of being rejected by orthodox Western Culture. That was the primary problem during the Crusade period as well. Not that all Muslims are from broken families. However, as an identity, you find that fear of rejection and their anger at Western civilization is the root of all their actions and narratives. Islam was built around the first son of Abraham, Ishmael. At the same time, Isaac was considered the father’s favorite because he was born within the institution of marriage.
So, of course, young men like Shamsud Din Jabbar are going to be drawn to religions that have at their foundation an explanation, or an off-ramp, for why society has rejected them. And it doesn’t take long for such young men to start signing up for ISIS terrorist groups as a discharge for the pain in their lives. Not that any of that is an excuse. But it does explain why people who feel they are losing at life are so quickly radicalized by a religion that features at its heart the rejected son of Abraham, who was born from the bad decision of the couple when faced with the crises of not being able to have children themselves. Then, once they could, they rejected the illicit birth that occurred outside of institutionalized marriage. That would also explain why Islam is the fastest-growing religion in the world, and it is proposed to have 3 billion people by 2060. There are a lot of broken people in the world who do not have the advantage of being born to a loving mother and father under the warm blanket of institutionalized marriage as the West sees it. And everywhere in the world that rebels against the notion of Western law and thought, they struggle with various degrees of Marxism, collective-based political movements that give the same kind of cover to broken people that the Muslim faith does. Remember what I have been saying about Obama’s mom for all these years? She was a lot like Hagar. And like Ishmael, Obama had daddy issues. And to hide that pain from themselves and the world, they become terrorists in lots of ways to fight back against the pain that haunts them. In that way, they become monsters, and religious fights against them dominate our news stories. But at its heart, it all comes down to affection for a father, and one was rejected because of an illicit relationship from which all of Islam was built to explain. And the other became the father of all Jewish faith and the emergence of Christianity. The hatred then becomes a kind of Cain and Able story where one brother wants to kill the other for all the jealousies that come from accepted institutionalism or to be cast aside and shunned from the love of a father where respect was so desperately wanted. And is it that simple? I think so. And yes, there are lots of horrible characters out there who take advantage of these broken people and weaponize them for their causes because they are easy to manipulate in their depleted state. And before you know it, they are blowing themselves up and trying to impose fear on what they think is a society that rejected them. Then, with all the violence, power is distributed across the world in ways that many can’t get their minds wrapped around because they are so evil and audacious. Ultimately, it is constructed out of jealousy and hurt feelings that trace back to why Ishmael and his mother were cast aside to fend for themselves.
To add the ultimate failure to the Biden term we have been experiencing is to acknowledge it for what it is. No, this was not a freely elected man who spent his life in public service and made good on the people of Pennsylvania to help them from the Executive Office. Instead, this is a crime lord put in office by conspirators who want to topple America and wanted a third term of Barack Obama, a continuation of the Weather Underground terrorism that gave us two terms of that communist insurgent, who was never qualified to be president in the first place. But they got away with a lot with Barack Obama, and so, of course, they were going to steal an election and put Obama in place and use a compromised person and old fool in the White House so they could move his mouth and make him say anything they wanted him to. They were willing to break the law for the good of their communist revolution, which they suckered so many into embracing, in a push for a global world order under the rule of China, the propped-up impoverished country that only gained wealth because it essentially became the 401K plan for the billionaires of America. It’s been a sucker game all along, but you know what’s funny? It hasn’t been working. Biden is trying to run for president after trying to be Fidel Castro for his first term essentially, and people are sick of him. So, at a fundraiser in New York, they brought out all the old tricks, Obama being one of them, and they looked like a bunch of out-of-touch fools. Supposedly, they raised 26 million dollars at that fundraiser, as two former and one current president were raised dramatically out of the stage. But in many ways, it was a perfect metaphor for what they had done to America and were now losing.
Essentially, this has been Obama’s third term. Hillary Clinton was supposed to carry the torch in 2016, but Trump won. And the globalists who had put so much effort into the destruction of America were angry about it; after all, that was Obama’s first mission, to “remake” America. To “transform” it into something else, from a capitalist country into a communist one. That was why the newcomer Obama had his political career launched in the living room of the American terrorist Bill Ayers. We were told to ignore that little news story; it was no big deal. Neither were the problems with the Obama birth certificate, which turned out to be a digital fake made on a modern computer. They got caught trying to fake one during Obama’s terms in office to shut up all the “truthers” out there who were onto the many problems with where Obama came from and who his daddy was. Many still don’t know, but we do know that they lied to us about a lot of things. But they got away with those lies, and the media, already taken over by this communist globalist plot, were willing to carry water for Obama and keep him propped up. But they never wanted him to go, so they were angry with Trump for interrupting their communist takeover of America. So they conspired and plotted and manipulated to extremes to destroy Trump, his supporters, and any notion of the Make America Great Again political platform. Because for them, that was the worst thing in the world. They wanted to destroy America. Not make it great again.
But who are “they,” you might ask, dear reader? Who are they? Well, it’s the international finance community who were allowed into our money supply with that stupid Jekyll Island mess that created the Federal Reserve. The secret societies of Europe have been plotting and scheming the decline of the West since it was essentially started. The globalists have their people in the European Union and the United Nations. It’s the billionaires who invest so much money into China-style communism for the entire world, using that paper tiger to look like the sales face of managed communism success by tying the hands of all the other countries in the world with ridiculous economic policy and climate change standards. And “they” keep their politicians in office to destroy the world to their liking with massive election fraud, which they utilize all over the world. Why do you think they were so upset that people were onto the scam with digital voting machines in the United States? Because that was their most accessible means of election fraud. That’s how they do it in communist countries like China, Russia, and South and Central America. Don’t forget that Mexico and Cuba are socialist countries. All of Europe are socialist countries. The head of the United Nations is a socialist. The head of the World Health Organization was a socialist. Everything about COVID, created in a Chinese lab in Wuhan by human beings as a bioweapon, was about bringing socialism and communism to the world through mass manipulation of our health care system where they could get access to all people without the stigma of a political movement. Oh, yes, “they” have been naughty, and they’ve killed a lot of people along the way. And they didn’t care who it was or under what conditions. They just wanted power and were willing to do anything to have it, including keeping Obama in the background and pulling the strings to Biden to keep their plans for globalism intact.
However, those efforts have spectacularly failed, and they are pretty well aware of it, which was apparent when they tapped into Obama and Clinton thinking that putting them on stage with Biden would help him. The effort showed how tone-deaf many globalist consultants are to reality. When forced to come out of the shadows and reveal who they are, they are bland, even out of touch. Putting many old men on stage whom many Americans hate together shows how regional their thinking is and how little they respect ordinary American voters. And that’s why they are losing any notion of a fair fight. Without election fraud, they are desperately exposed. And out of all that 26 million they raised, they couldn’t move the needle with a billion dollars. The media might want that money wasted on them, so of course, their will whore themselves out to the Democrat Party, America’s version of the communist party in the West. But people have been lied to, killed, harassed, abused, and manipulated in every way by both parties. And “they” are sick of it. Trump was never supposed to be in this position, the frontrunner as President once again. I’ve been telling everyone since January of 2021 that he would be. I understand the guy. I knew he’d be back. And he’s going to be president again, and many of us are going to aggressively undo all these communist plans that have been pressured upon us for many years, including all the terrorism that came from Barack Obama. We will undo their corrupt world right in front of their faces, and they will deserve all the pain that comes with that. And they should consider themselves lucky that their punishments won’t be more severe for all they have done to us. In my mind, they are getting off too easily.
In case you haven’t figured it out yet, we are being played in a kind of chess game with some basic patterns of thinking that are precisely how marketing motives are revealed. To say that the Jewish people are all one way or another is utterly ridiculous. That is like saying that Joe Biden and I are both American. But the next question about Republicans and Democrats, traditionalists and progressives, ends the conversation. There are no more similarities between Joe Biden and me than in saying that we live within the same borders of the same country. It has come up a lot over the Holiday season where people have been asking me a lot about the Bible, why and how I can support the Jewish people, and the creation of Israel at the expense of the Palestinians the way I do, even knowing what I do about the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. So, of course, that opens up many explanation opportunities, which I’m happy to divulge. But to put it nicely, if you have allowed yourself to be marketed into foolishness, then you will be a little upset to find out all the ways you’ve been suckered, including most of the translations of the Bible. I think most people, including some of the most vigorous religious studies, get their interpretation of the Bible all wrong, and I often turn to Psalm 82 for the entire purpose of the Bible, which I would argue runs counter to everything people believe. 99. 99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of everyone gets the Bible wrong. They have allowed their worldview and their religions to be shaped by institutional aggressors who are prone to mischaracterizations and influences of scandal that reside in the hearts of most translations, on purpose or by accident.
The Elohim is the proper word for God
There is quite a movement looming in the background that has figured some of this out and has been gaining momentum over the last few decades, which I would attribute to the nature of mass communication and having so many cultures interact now in ways they never could before. The old game of keep-away isn’t working like it used to, of pitting various sides against each other. I love the Jewish people because they are the oldest surviving group on earth. They are an ancient people, and with them and their rituals comes a window into the past that I find fascinating. Why do they believe the things they do? And why have so many groups, including those of today, want to eradicate them from the face of the earth, yet they are still here after many such attempts? And regarding any references to the Jewish people running all banking and controlling the world in the way that the Protocols of the Elders of Zion have chronicled, I would use the Joe Biden comparison, too. We both might have white skin. We both might live in America and be called American, but the differences end there. Otherwise, I’m nothing like Joe Biden, and regarding the many conspiracies, the Jewish people are not like the Rothchilds and various globalists who try to hide their tendency to want to control the world by hiding behind a religion, a region of the world, or the sentiments of history. Those who try to put everyone into these neat little categories are part of the problem, and their antics should be revealed for what they are: the actual manipulations of the Elohim and the Divine Council politics that work their way into our lives daily but reside far beyond our reach materially, into the chess games of Heaven that are very much a part of our daily life.
An amazing book compiled over a tremendous amount of time
In that wonderful passage, Psalm 82, we find the proper word for God, Elohim, used by the Jewish people in their Hebrew Bibles, particularly before the modern era of progressive impact on the publishing industry began tampering with words, that the Hebrew names for things are essential. God calls on the Divine Council of Heaven to pull it together and judge wickedness righteously. Even though God spoke about here as the singular Elohim, he has trouble keeping his Divine Council together even as creator of the universe. They are plotting and scheming always to undercut all civilization for their political purposes. We tend to think of Heaven as a relief from the concerns of Earth, but reality indicates that things are on Earth as they are in Heaven. Politics is a creation of Heavenly existence; our motivations are similar everywhere, including on the other side of the universe among all living creatures. The idea of a utopia where everyone gets along is the fantasy of those who don’t have the will to fight and understand politics as living things interact. I have many different Bibles that I use for study, and one of my favorites for this very reason is a Complete Jewish Study Bible that has gone to great effort to put its original Hebrew words in it to translate the true meanings of biblical passages. One of my Bibles, my study Bible for the King James version, is wonderful, but purposefully, the translation from the original Septuagint in Greek is very much watered down. These last few decades, It has been challenging to find a Bible with the correct term for God, the Elohim, in it for the context of meaning. And even then, there has been a lot lost to time and translation by minds not entirely up to the task of wrapping their minds around the concept of a “divine council” that is always rebelling against God and using the plight of humanity for malicious purposes.
The wars we are fighting are instigated by many of these same forces who jump into the minds of the stupid and weak willingly for purposes that cannot be understood until the context of the entire Bible is conceived as an attempt over many thousands of years to see this big picture of politics among the Divine Council for what it is. Psalm 82 was likely written around 1450 BC, so it predates the building of Solomon’s Temple by 500 years and the birth of Christ by over a thousand. So, to put together this story as the Jewish people had by being one of the only civilizations to be together still after such an ancient past is quite remarkable and worth preserving. Another interesting fact is that Jewish people, by heritage, can all trace back their genealogy to one common ancestor 140,000 years ago, which makes sense to me. To all those who want to think about the entire history of the world starting about 6000 years ago, I believe that is because the translations are off. That doesn’t cheapen the religious experience but is driven because the context of history is off in translating ancient material. Such a consideration gives the Adam and Eve story a lot more merit. If the Middle East didn’t have so many wars all the time, we would likely be able to confirm all this, but then perhaps that’s the point of all the political turmoil. To keep us from figuring it out, the political mechanisms can be applied for reasons that extend well beyond the concerns of the Earth. And that is my answer on the Jewish people and religion in general. I like to understand politics and am very interested in why people do what they do. But saying all that, I am very interested in the Elohim in the plural sense and their politics so that we, too, can play the big chess game and win it on the side of goodness and righteousness. And to not be victims as Job was, or many other characters who were caught up in the political antics of the Elohim. But to fight back against them in ways they aren’t prepared for, and to win.
