<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Bush, Blair found guilty of war crimes in </span></span>Malaysia tribunal</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">When we&#8217;ve learned of crimes that were or are being committed, especially War Crimes and the murder of countless innocents , we have an obligation to do something to stop it. Like forwarding this EVERYWHERE so that people all over the world realize any and ALL GOVERNMENTS or Politicians who IGNORE this call for Justice are also committing crimes of cover up while continuing to be accomplices. All who ignore this type of atrocity do so at their own peril.</span></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">For those promoting Ron Paul, what does it say that we are willing to overlook all the criminality and wait until 2013 to act? He will not discuss 911, which is another blatent murderous crime that began these illegal wars that are spreading like wildfire from </span></span>Iraq with U.S. Drones flying into surrounding countries, also killing thousands. What about all the other murder for profit, as in Libya? Hillary laughing about dishonoring a White Flag while U.N. Soldiers watch torture, sodomy and the murder of Gadafi? (or whoever that was) What about obama supposedly having Osama (some other poor man) murdered and dumped into the sea?</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Do we wait for &#8220;S&#8221; Elections, and accept these criminals in power? Why are WE allowing  paper work to overthrow our Natural Rights? We&#8217;re all under &#8221;Legal Conquest&#8221;, with those in power ready to create and recreate laws to keep us paying fines, fees, registrations, and always waiting while WE play by THEIR UNLAWFUL RULES which promote inequality, poverty and war.</span></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">United We Strike says that until each of us becomes accountable and refuses to ignore this corruption, we&#8217;ll get more murder, death, war, and destruction, as our food, land, water and skies are also destroyed. We outnumber them. If WE the People do not rise to save OURSELVES and OUR World, those in power will continue to destroy it.</span></span></p>

<p>Mr. Arar, a Syrian-born Canadian citizen, was detained at JFK Airport in September<br />
  2002 while changing planes on his way home to Canada. The Bush administration<br />
  labeled him a member of al-Qaeda and sent him not to Canada, his home and country<br />
  of citizenship, but against his will to Syrian intelligence authorities renowned<br />
  for torture. He was tortured, interrogated and detained in a tiny underground<br />
  cell for nearly a year before the Syrian government released him, stating they<br />
  had found no connection to any criminal or terrorist organization or activity.</p>

<p>This is a very well documented article that incriminates America and you.<br />
WARNING:  Once you see the truth that has been kept from you, you have a moral obligation to tell others.  Murder is wrong.  To know who is doing the murder and not work to expose them and stop them is to be an accomplice with them, especially in a government such as our where the People are responsible for what goes on.  God will hold you responsible as well as the people who know the truth.  May God have mercy on your body and soul in the wrath to come.</p>
<blockquote><p>Ezek 33:8-11<br />
&#8220;When I say to the wicked, &#8216;O wicked man, you will surely die,&#8217; and you do not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will require from your hand. 9 &#8220;But if you on your part warn a wicked man to turn from his way and he does not turn from his way, he will die in his iniquity, but you have delivered your life.</p>
<p>10 &#8220;Now as for you, son of man, say to the house of Israel [or any nation - God doesn't carry a double standard in this moral matter], &#8216;Thus you have spoken, saying, &#8220;Surely our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and we are rotting away in them [isn't this true today?]; how then can we survive?&#8221;&#8216; 11 &#8220;Say to them, &#8216;As I live!&#8217; declares the Lord God, &#8216;I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn back, turn back from your evil ways!</p>
<p>Eph 5:11<br />
Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them;</p></blockquote>

<p>&#8220;Madison, agreeing with the journal of the convention, records that the grant of power to emit bills of credit was refused by a majority of more than four to one. The evidence is perfect; no power to emit paper money was granted to the legislature of the United States.&#8221;<em><br />

<p>&#8220;No state shall emit bills of credit, make any thing but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts, coin money&#8230;&#8221;<em>~ United States Constitution<br />

<p>&#8220;Emitting bills of credit, or the creation of money by private corporations, is what is expressly forbidden by Article 1, Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution.&#8221;<em><br />
~ U.S. Supreme Court<br />

<p>&#8220;The study of money, above all other fields in economics, is one in which complexity is used to disguise truth or to evade truth, not to reveal it.&#8221;<em>~ John Kenneth Galbraith (1908- ) Canadian-born economist, Harvard professor<br />

<p>&#8220;The legal tender quality [of money] is only valuable for the purposes of dishonesty.&#8221;<em><br />

<p>&#8220;Money power denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods or throw light upon its crimes.&#8221;<br />

<p>&#8220;Paper money has had the effect in your state that it will ever have, to ruin commerce, oppress the honest, and open the door to every species of fraud and injustice.&#8221;<em>~ George Washington (1732-1799) Founding Father, 1st US President, &#8216;Father of the Country&#8217;<br />

<p>&#8220;Those who create and issue money and credit direct the policies of government and hold in the hollow of their hands the destiny of the people.&#8221;<em><br />
~ Reginald McKenna (1863-1943) British Chancellor of Exchequer</em></p>
<p>“And a final word to you arrogant rich: Take some lessons in lament. You’ll need buckets for the tears when the crash comes upon you. Your money is corrupt and your fine clothes stink. Your greedy luxuries are a cancer in your gut, destroying your life from within. You thought you were piling up wealth. What you’ve piled up is judgment. All the workers you’ve exploited and cheated cry out for judgment. The groans of the workers you used and abused are a roar in the ears of the Master Avenger. You’ve looted the earth and lived it up. But all you’ll have to show for it is a fatter than usual corpse. In fact, what you’ve done is condemn and murder perfectly good persons, who stand there and take it.”<em><br />

We dont get fooled again”<br />

We have the same government.<br />
The names have changed to protect the guilty.<br />
Be prepared for a new wave of lies.<br />
They have created the problem and now offer solutions.  Don&#8217;t buy it.  It is a trap.<br />
We need to begin governing ourselves once again at an accountable level, the state and local level.  We have the technology to do this better than ever before.<br />
