What Else Is There?

Atlantis Rising
It's
been a puzzle for many people - the real reason that Bush pushed the big
red Invade button and sent his troops into Iraq. It wasn't really
weapons of mass destruction; the Pakistanis have them already and Korea
soon will (or have, depending on which report you care to lend credence
to), and sooner or later one of the other of them will let fly. Iraq
wasn't nearly as close yet. And it wasn't oil. It was never oil despite
what people like to believe. The amount of Iraqi oil going to the US was
negligible.
So what was it?
Until now the most plausible reason was psychological; the war was born
from a psychologically driven impulse from deep within Bush the dry
drunk, the born again, the mommy dominated, the psychologically damaged
youth grown to be President. That at least makes sense. But no. I now
know, from a recent discovery culled from my favourite magazine rack,
that even that eminently sensible psychological reason was not the root
cause. Not even close. The real reason, you see, is exopolitics.
That's "exo" as in
exobiology - the study of alien biology. In this case it is alien
politics, or to be more precise, politics exercised with concerns about
aliens as the primary driving factor. I know this from a fascinating
article in the current issue of Atlantis Rising, a truly fun read.
Atlantis Rising
(AR) manages to sandwich in a single issue the case for the great flood,
the case against evolution, the true story of Lemuria (courtesy of
dreams from Shirley MacLaine), Hopi snake dancers that originated in
India, a chat with Shakti Gawain, and a host of other oddities including
the on-going saga of cold fusion or cold fusion related, er, science.
Not to mention exopolitics.
Writer Len Kasten,
identified as "an Australian researcher," uses the works of an Aussie
ex-pat, one Dr Salla, as the centerpiece in his article that claims the
Iraqi invasion was driven by concerns over the imminent return of
aliens. In case you're interested, the aliens in question are the
Anunnaki, really tall spacefarers who are otherwise gods in the ancient
Sumerian pantheon. The Anunnaki are about to drop in for a return visit
because their planet - the 12th planet don't you know - happens to be
wandering through our solar system again. It seems to do this every 3600
years, give or take.
With the use of a
"stargate" buried in Iraq, the Anunnaki will slip across the coldness of
space to see what's happening. Iraqi archeology, it seems is heavily
dominated by, coincidentally, Russian, German and French archeologists.
What a blow to American power it would be if aliens landed in Iraq. It
would be akin to that old good news, bad news joke about the Pope: the
good news is Jesus has returned; the bad news is he landed in Utah.
Here is what
Kasten has to say about American politicians faced with the Anunnaki's
return, and their likely landing in, of all places, Saddam Hussein run
Iraq:
"… this would have
the effect of propping up [Hussein's] regime. US government leaders know
that such an eventuality must be prevented at all costs, so they decide
that with the help of extraterrestrial allies, they must invade Iraq and
close the stargate. The Russians, Germans, and French, however, … prefer
that the stargate remain open, thus preventing American domination of
the world. With time running out, President Bush invades Iraq. American
scientists invade the museum, and close the stargate, thus frustrating
the grandiose ambitions of the self-styled reincarnation of
Nebuchadnezzar, Saddam Hussein, and making the world safe for the New
World Order."
Whew! Breathless
prose it is. The crowning touch is Kasten managing to tie the
destruction of the museum in Baghdad into the whole thing. Although
there was not nearly as much damage to the museum as the press claimed
in the early reports, that incident certainly engaged the world's
attention. If you want a really robust conspiracy theory to work with,
make it revolve around real events.
Whether or not you
entertain even a little bit the idea of aliens engaging in a monumental
battle in secret alliances with the world's political elite, the sheer
entertainment value of this article makes the magazine a wonderful find.
Another benefit of
Kasten's article (and Dr Salla's work) is a capsule summary of various
aliens among us theories - as in why they are among us: they are
Intruders, Manipulators, Helpers, or Watchers. Take your pick.
However, if
exopolitics isn't your area of interest, AR has lots more to choose
from. In one truly memorable article, by Peter Bros, the great Flood (as
in Noah and in countless other mythologies) is trumpeted at the expense
of the ice age. It appears the ice age, at least for Bros, is a myth
made up by scientists who didn't want to acknowledge anything that would
lend credence to Christian mythology.
The reasoning Bros
uses is remarkable, to be kind. Mostly it involves trashing anything
that science - mainstream science, that is - suggests, and replacing it
with more believable scenarios. There was never an ice age, but there
was a planetary sized flood. He even speculates on the origin of the
waters for the flood - the moon. Really. The moon has all those empty
seas after all ….
There's more, of
course, so much more that you'll just have to read it for yourself. Head
to your local magazine stand and look for the September/October edition
of Atlantis Rising. You won't regret it. Even the ads are intriguing.
Have you been having difficulty finding a supply of Tesla Purple Energy
Plates? An ad in AR gives a source. Even better, order my purple energy
plates from that source, and you get a "free conspiracy journal." Now
that's an offer that's tough to refuse.
