Janet Napolitano Resigns Warning Of A Major Cyber Event Which Could Cripple America, Similar To Warnings By Pattie Brassard

Janet Napolitano Resigns Warning Of A Major Cyber Event Which Could Cripple America, Similar To Warnings By Pattie Brassard

Vatic Note:  Vatic Project has covered this issue on many different occasions with reports of chemtrail cover over the sun at sun rise and sun set and we did so for many months, however, we also covered the fact that this twin star came and went from the south, up over the sun and back down again and was not going to cause near the damage they thought.

We also did many blogs on the Antarctic research facilities of 30 countries since the mid 50's.  So part of this is confirmed but the fact that the twin sun, or dark star is coming from the south, instead of the elliptic is good news.   It won't cause near the damage that it did when it showed up 3,600 years ago, coming in on the eliptic.  That is when damage is great.  Its the debri it brings  with it that caused all the damage in the fly by.   (When viewing all this, lets remember that NASA is now under the US Naval Space Command, so who knows what the truth is.)

This time, we saw some of the debri but it landed out in the pacific and did some damage in Russia and Indonesia, but nothing in America, except for the sink holes it caused.  The Yucatan peninsula is a good example of what an asteroid hitting the earth looks like and I can't imagine the impact on our atmosphere for that size of a collision.   Is that when the dinosaurs went extinct?  Probably.

So, either its still here and getting closer, or its gone and they are using a Rahm Emmanual trick "never let a good crisis go to waste" and are planning on doing something deceptive to us while they go underground.   I can't prove all of this, but our blog does have a TV news report on the arrival of this body from Russian TV and the fact that Russia built 5000 underground facilities for their people in Moscow.  So, you read and decide.  We have another blog on this subject coming up soon.

By Dublin Mick, Here Comes the Sun

I have been blogging about this subject for a long time. Lately we have seen U.S. personnel removed from various embassies, Russia and China engaging in joint military preparedness drills,
FEMA ordering large quantities of emergency food etc. Russia seems keen to build some mini subs with Italy. Pattie L. Brassard is suffering from depleted uranium exposure and has serious health problems. She doesn’t think she will be here for very long.

“Pattie L. Brassard is a former US Army high tech specialist who worked for NASA, Bell Labs, Lockheed Martin, and others.  Listen to this urgent message about what she says will happen to Seattle and the whole US West Coast.  And the true consequences of Fukushima, how HAARP, chemtrails, and SmartMeters are really being used, and the fast-approaching binary sun (with seven planets) that world governments have known about for 50 years, after which they started building deep underground bases in secret.  If she is correct, we are in big trouble.  Please listen with discernment, this is very serious if true.  Would like to hear from anyone who knows of evidence that she is lying.”

NASA expert warns of coming event, possibly a megaquake
Pattie Brassard also has a blog with some very interesting Photographs. You be the judge. This one is infrared. It does look a bit like the dragon’s tail, stellar feature of Chinese culture. It is similar to the ones you see in gift shops holding a crystal symbolizing the sky dragon which holds the earth in it’s hand.

The Sky dragon is a very prominent feature of Chinese history and in fact is their national symbol. It is featured on the walls of the Forbidden City or Temple of Heaven.



Chinese Sky Dragon


Some final excerpts from Mother Shipton’s Poem (Not the complete poem)

The king shall false promise make;
And talk just for talking’s sake.
And nations plan horrific war;
The like as never seen before.

And taxes rise and lively down;
And nations wear perpetual frown
Not every soul on earth will die,
As the dragon’s tail goes sweeping by,

Not every land on earth will sink,
But these will wallow in stench and stink,
Of rotting bodies of beast and man,
Of vegetation crisped on land.

But the land that rises from the sea
Will be dry and clean and soft and free.
Of mankind’s dirt and therefore be,
The source of man’s new dynasty.

And those that live will ever fear
The dragon’s tail for many year
But time erases memory You think it strange?
But it will be!

And before the race is built anew,
A silver serpent comes to view
And spew out men of like unknown.
To mingle with the earth now grown,

Cold from its heat and these men
can Enlighten the minds of future man.
To intermingle and show them how
To live and love and thus endow,

The children with the second sight,
A natural thing so that they might
Grow graceful, humble and when they do
The Golden Age will start anew.

The dragon’s tail is but a sign
For mankind’s fall and man’s decline.
And before this prophecy is done
I shall be burned at the stake, at One.

My body singed and my soul set free.
You think I utter blasphemy?
You’re wrong! These things have come to me
THIS PROPHECY WILL COME TO BE!

And when the dragon’s tail is gone
Man forgets and smiles and carries on.
To apply himself – too late, too late
For mankind has earned deserved fate.

Object next to sun 
Benjamin Parravicini

He predicted the fall of “twin towers” and also the fall of Hitler and Mussolini,  storms caused by man’s incursion into the atmosphere and a light from the south, a cross. We do know the American indians referred to the second sun as the planet of the crossing and the symbol is a balanced cross.

The Cherokee symbol is a balanced cross within a circle. Currently many nations have set up telescopes in the antarctic watching the skies. (VN: Vatic Project has done several blogs just on the research facilities of 30 countries in the Antarctic and that was why we kept saying there was a rogue planet or twin star on its way.)  My own interpretation of a trimmed cross could be a balanced cross. Mr. Parravicini attributed the messages he received as coming from his guardian angel, José de Aragón.

We also have the 
Kolbrin_Bible which speaks of a celestial dragon. It was known to the ancient Greeks as the famed winged globe. Besides The Kolbrin Bible and Sumerian tradition, what additional information is available hinting that a planet once existed in the region of the asteroid belt?”

“celestial] dragon from outer heaven to come and encompass her about. The dragon was frightful to behold, it lashed its tail and breathed out fire and hot coals and a great catastrophe was inflicted upon mankind. The body of the dragon [Nibiru/Planet X] was wreathed in a cold bright light and beneath on the belly was a ruddy hued glow while behind it trailed a flowing tail of smoke.”

“The celestial event broke Tiamat apart, turning some of the pieces into the asteroid belt. However, a small portion of Tiamat remained intact and was hurled inward toward the sun, settling into a closer orbit. The unstable planetary mass of rock and water reestablished itself into a smaller ocean planet, becoming present day Earth.”


Scallion and other maps      (VN: This below, looks like the map the navy put out  in 1996, where the madrid fault with all those nukes along the Mississippi had flooded along with most of the East Coast and a huge chunk of California and mid America..... our farm belt actually.)

Updated: I keep stumbling into more information appearing on the web for public consumption that fits the narrative like a glove.

http://www.wakingtimes.com/2013/08/07/spontaneous-evolution-has-arrived/
“Keep this in mind when reading this article.  Edgar Cayce stated, “(Earth) is slowly receding or gathering closer to the sun, from which it receives its impetus for the awakening of the elements from that which it receives from the sun. - elements that give life itself, by radiation of like elements.”

What does this mean?  It isn’t typical to see such a drastic change in these decay rates.  Scientists are seeing a change of 1/10th of 1% in these particles, which was previously unheard of and is unexplainable at this moment.  When a particle speeds up, it means it’s radiating more energy.  

This includes the energy and particles within our own bodies.  Studies on DNA have indicated that even very weak changes in the energy field can cause profound changes in our DNA.”

There is a drastic climate change event happening on every planet in our solar system.  Planets are becoming more luminous, have higher energy fields and have thicker atmospheres.

What is causing these dramatic changes?”  (VN:  Chemtrail dumping)

Obama's secret assassins

JSoc: Obama's secret assassins

The president has a clandestine network targeting a 'kill list' justified by secret laws. How is that different than a death squad?

The film Dirty Wars, which premiered at Sundance, can be viewed, as Amy Goodman sees it, as an important narrative of excesses in the global "war on terror". It is also a record of something scary for those of us at home – and uncovers the biggest story, I would say, in our nation's contemporary history.
Though they wisely refrain from drawing inferences, Scahill and Rowley have uncovered the facts of a new unaccountable power in America and the world that has the potential to shape domestic and international events in an unprecedented way. The film tracks the Joint Special Operations Command (JSoc), a network of highly-trained, completely unaccountable US assassins, armed with ever-expanding "kill lists". It was JSoc that ran the operation behind the Navy Seal team six that killed bin Laden.
Scahill and Rowley track this new model of US warfare that strikes at civilians and insurgents alike – in 70 countries. They interview former JSoc assassins, who are shell-shocked at how the "kill lists" they are given keep expanding, even as they eliminate more and more people.
Our conventional forces are subject to international laws of war: they are accountable for crimes in courts martial; and they run according to a clear chain of command. As much as the US military may fall short of these standards at times, it is a model of lawfulness compared with JSoc, which has far greater scope to undertake the commission of extra-legal operations – and unimaginable crimes.
JSoc morphs the secretive, unaccountable mercenary model of private military contracting, which Scahill identified in Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful Mercenary Army, into a hybrid with the firepower and intelligence backup of our full state resources. The Hill reports that JSoc is now seeking more "flexibility" to expand its operations globally.
JSoc operates outside the traditional chain of command; it reports directly to the president of the United States. In the words of Wired magazine:
"JSoc operates with practically no accountability."
Scahill calls JSoc the president's "paramilitary". Its budget, which may be in the billions, is secret.
What does it means for the president to have an unaccountable paramilitary force, which can assassinate anyone anywhere in the world? JSoc has already been sent to kill at least one US citizen – one who had been indicted for no crime, but was condemned for propagandizing for al-Qaida. Anwar al-Awlaki, on JSoc's "kill list" since 2010, was killed by CIA-controlled drone attack in September 2011; his teenage son, Abdulrahman al-Awlaki – also a US citizen – was killed by a US drone two weeks later.
This arrangement – where death squads roam under the sole control of the executive – is one definition of dictatorship. It now has the potential to threaten critics of the US anywhere in the world.
The film reveals some of these dangers: Scahill, writing in the Nation, reported that President Obama called Yemen's President Saleh in 2011 to express "concern" about jailed reporter Abdulelah Haider Shaye. US spokespeople have confirmed the US interest in keeping him in prison.
Shaye, a Yemeni journalist based in Sana'a, had a reputation for independent journalism through his neutral interviewing of al-Qaida operatives, and of critics of US policy such as Anwar al-Awlaki. Journalist colleagues in Yemen dismiss the notion of any terrorist affiliation: Shaye had worked for the Washington Post, ABC news, al-Jazeera, and other major media outlets.
Shaye went to al-Majala in Yemen, where a missile strike had killed a group that the US had called "al-Qaida". "What he discovered," reports Scahill, "were the remnants of Tomahawk cruise missiles and cluster bombs … some of them bearing the label 'Made in the USA', and distributed the photos to international media outlets."
Fourteen women and 21 children were killed. "Whether anyone actually active in al-Qaida was killed remains hotly contested." Shortly afterwards, Shaye was kidnapped and beaten by Yemeni security forces. In a trial that was criticized internationally by reporters' groups and human rights organizations, he was accused of terrorism. Shaye is currently serving a five-year sentence.
Scahill and Rowley got to the bars of Shaye's cell to interview him, before the camera goes dark (in almost every scene, they put their lives at risk). This might also bring to mind the fates of Sami al-Haj of al-Jazeera, also kidnapped, and sent to Guantánamo, and of Julian Assange, trapped in asylum in Ecuador's London embassy.
President Obama thus helped put a respected reporter in prison for reporting critically on JSoc's activities. The most disturbing issue of all, however, is the documentation of the "secret laws" now facilitating these abuses of American power: Scahill succeeds in getting Senator Ron Wyden, who sits on the Senate intelligence committee, to confirm the fact that there are secret legal opinions governing the use of drones in targeted assassinations that, he says, Americans would be "very surprised" to know about. This is not the first time Wyden has issued this warning.
In 2011, Wyden sought an amendment to the USA Patriot Act titled requiring the US government "to end practice of secretly interpreting law". Wyden warns that there is now a system of law beneath or behind the law that we can see and debate:
"It is impossible for Congress to hold an informed public debate on the Patriot Act when there is a significant gap between what most Americans believe the law says and what the government is using the law to do. In fact, I believe many members of Congress who have voted on this issue would be stunned to know how the Patriot Act is being interpreted and applied.
"Even secret operations need to be conducted within the bounds of established, publicly understood law. Any time there is a gap between what the public thinks the law says and what the government secretly thinks the law says, I believe you have a serious problem."
I have often wondered, since I first wrote about America's slide toward fascism, what was driving it. I saw the symptoms but not the cause. Scahill's and Rowley's brave, transformational film reveals the prime movers at work. The US executive now has a network of secret laws, secret budgets, secret kill lists, and a well-funded, globally deployed army of secret teams of assassins. That is precisely the driving force working behind what we can see. Is fascism really too strong a word to describe it?
• This article originally referred to Scahill and Rowley's documentary as Secret Wars; this was amended to Dirty Wars at 5.20pm ET on 3 February. The phrase "US kill list" in the subhead was also amended to "kill list" in order to remove possible ambiguity

(Before It’s News)
Before It’s News reporter and friend Dave Hodges joins the Hagmann and Hagmann Report in this newly released video report and the conversation is not for the feint of heart. Why would the US military keep the US Navy in a permanent state of readiness off of 3 coasts of America in a set of continuous and unparalled war games? Is the US military preparing for World War 3? Does this unusual behavior have to do with stopping Americans from escaping once martial law is declared, before and after the economic collapse? The REAL answer might surprise you! This show gets hot after the 5 minute mark as the meat of this discussion begins.

Near the 2 hour mark they talk about the Refugees and the Outbreak with the upcoming free education on a mandatory basis.
If you really look at that aspect you do NOT need the EMP attack as an Ebola or other disease outbreak would do wonders to get rid of most of us.
Once these Refugees get close to the American children it would spread like wildfire.
Then those that are teenagers that work at any food employer that would spread as well, and the FDA and EPA would have NO control to STOP it as it would be too late.
And for those that supposedly signed up for Obamacare would NOT be covered.
Maybe you would be arrested at an airport if you mentioned at that time that your child goes to school with a Refugee who has a bad disease and the TSA is willing to pat them down and that glove will protect them.

Sunday 7-27-14… “Special [Drake] show with Dr. Aidun to update and give some clarity about SICE”

Posted on by kauilapele

Just wanted to point this show out for those who may like to get more information from Dr. (Judge) Aidan (Naidu). This show focuses on what is called SICE (Sovereign International Court of Equity). The show is from 2-5 PM HST (5-8 PDT, 8-11 EDT) (and of course, there will be an archived version).
As I understand, in contrast to the last show, Dr. (Judge) Aidan (Naidu) will be the only guest.
Here is a link to what is acronymed SICE. (note: in the title of that article, it’s apparently mis-acronymed “SLICE”)

Let Me Say This about That…

Let Me Say This about That…

Posted on by kauilapele
As I feel it right now, at this moment (0130 HST), there are certain things that rankle from time to time, and that means I’m to pay attention to what “the rankling” is all about.
First off, we all have our own backgrounds, our own views, and all this and all that. My deal is that I BE and DO my OWN, and allow others to BE and DO their own.
So I see that any “rankling” in my innards is my own NOT allowing others to have their own. But I’ll say this…
There’s times when I hear things like, “The Bible says this”, or “Natural Foods Magazine says GMO will kill you”, or “To be a Light Worker you have to meditate (exactly) 4.33 hours per day”, “You’ve got to eat only organic foods,” and so on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on….
ENOUGH ALREADY……………………..
The Essence of ME is what I AM, and the BODY and Mind and Spirit of ME is what does the DOing. Whatever it is.
You know, I only get “tired of all that on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on stuff”, when I fail to remember SELF… MY SELF… and that’s Higher Self, with a capital HS. And that’s MINE and MINE only, to BE.
I’m not here to live up to anybody else’ paradigms of living. NO. They can rant and rave and say and imply that there’s something “wrong” with me if I’m (and I quote), “Male or female, straight or gay, black or white or anything in between, read the Bible (or Koran, or Torah, or whatever the hell LightWorker book is out there right now) or don’t read the Bible (or Koran, or Torah, or whatever the hell LightWorker book is out there right now), have a job or don’t have a job and all that on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on stuff.”
So I’m at peace with it now. I’m just going through a multitude of “new” stuff, new “work”, that’s all kind of more “groupy” than before.
So now I guess there’s only one solution… allow my Self to enjoy being a “Grouper”.

Article I: Stops the Obama Regime's Invasion of America

Article I: Stops the Obama Regime's Invasion of America


As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.

I fail to see the gambit on the focus of impeaching the image of Barack Hussein Obama and John Boehner suing the occupant of 1600 Penn Avenue, when Congress already has full authority provided in
Article I of the United States Constitution.

SECTION 8

To establish a uniform rule of naturalization, and uniform laws on the subject of bankruptcies throughout the United States;


To provide for calling forth the militia to execute the laws of the union, suppress insurrections and repel invasions;


Article II deals with the executive, and in no content do the States or People of these United States grant in any form, executive orders, mandates or the President in the Executive any authority to issue any such "laws".

Laws originate in the Congress as bills and become laws only by Presidential signature or 2/3rds over riding votes in Congress of Executive vetoes.

So the reality is, if someone had bothered to actually read the Constitution, that only Congress has authority on immigration in any form in how people are naturalized or how they become Americans.

Secondly Congress, has full authority to protect the National Borders. It simply calls forth the milita or state military as Ronald Reagan began rearming, to suppress insurrections and repel invasions, which is exactly what the image of Barack Hussein Obama has engaged in.


Nothing could be more clear than this. Speaker Boehner simply has to produce a vote and force Harry Reid in the Senate in democrats to call out the State militias in California, Arizona, New Mexico and  Texas.

No state can deny any non felon Citizen from serving in the militia, so even a liberal Jerry Brown could not stop Californians from serving in a militia to shut the borders down there.

This is more than Senator Sessions calling for Americans to melt down the Congressional switchboards to stop the image of Obama on executive orders for illegal invaders, when Congress holds all authority in this to stop Birther Hussein, using United States Citizens and Congressional Constitutional authority to deal with these invaders.


Apparently the Lame Cherry is the only Constitutional Law Source now or the only girl who can read the United States Constitution.

TNT CHAT WITH ALREADY BLESSED, 27 JULY

TNT:

Already Blessed :GOOD MORNING ALL - WISH I KNEW THE TIMING ON WHEN THIS WOULD HAPPEN...ALL I KNOW AND TRULY BELIEVE IS THAT IT REALLY IS ANYTIME AND I AM HOPEFUL FOR TODAY BY THE INFORMATION WE ARE GETTING

Already Blessed:  SUNDAY - HYDRO CARBON LAW AND NOT AN ISSUE ANYMORE FOR US

Ever wonder about the hydrocarbon law? Consisting of a set of four laws which outline how the oil industry should be governedhow the Iraqis will divide the profits from this industry, and how the oil industry should be re-shaped.

These four laws define, respectively, how the Iraqi Ministry of Oil should be re-structured, how investments in the oil industry should be managed, how revenue should be distributed and divided, and how the Iraqi National Oil Company should be reconstituted.

These laws are necessary for the permission for international companies to begin investing in the Iraqi oil industry (and to subsequently jump start the oil production industry), as they provide the guidelines, regulations, boundaries, etc. for how to run this industry.

Whether or not the hydrocarbon law is beneficial or detrimental to the Iraqi government and economy is widely discussed, with many disagreeing on its actual benefits for the Iraqi people overall.

The four laws are as follows

(resource link)
    http://www.longwarjournal.org/archives/2008/02/inside_iraqi_politic_3.php

1.) Managing investment in Iraq’s oil resources, specifically the industry’s upstream development;

2.) Revenue sharing among private companies, provinces, and the federal government;

3.) Restructuring the Ministry of Oil; and

4.) Create and constitute an Iraq National Oil Company (INOC) to control all aspects of the Iraqi oil industry.

US politicians behind Veterans Affairs corruption

US politicians behind Veterans Affairs corruption

US politicians behind Veterans Affairs corruption

… by  Jim W. Dean, VT Editor     …with  Press TV,  Tehran


An American political commentator says the corruption at the Veterans Affairs is partly pressured by politicians who want to see good reports.
This is not a active window. Click link above.
“You have corruption, but also political pressure of ‘show us…we want to hear good reports’, and because it’s a mess, the managers start having to look for ways where they can hide the problems,” said Jim W. Dean of Veterans Today in a phone interview with Press TV on Tuesday.
Dean said that Bob McDonald, President Barack Obama’s pick to head up the troubled Department of Veterans Affairs, faces great challenges in fixing the VA on both sides.
“There is two key parts here,” said Dean. “We have the obvious situation of VA that is swamped with demands of not enough money and there is supposed to be miracle workers who give everybody everything they want when they don’t have resources to do it.”
“And yet they are under a lot of pressure to generate statistics that they are doing a good job,” he added. “The politicians want those good statistics… so they want something to show the people that they are doing a good job.”
“The politicians are playing a game that they really care, but they really want to fake it. So now they are stuck. They have to basically pretend that they are doing a wonderful job, so they start cooking the books and they have to hide backlogs and things like this, which should have been reported for years and years and years,” he continued.
Dean called for an investigation of the corruption as to “why they allowed it to go on” because they are “just as guilty as any white-collar managers in the VA or possibly more guilty.”
Problems at the Department of Veterans Affairs came to light this past spring when more than 40 veterans allegedly died while waiting for care after being kept off the books at a VA facility in Phoenix.
The incident led to the resignation of VA Secretary Eric Shinseki.
