real revolution starting in our own backyards

The current system, domineered by corrupt, career politicians and the corporations and banks that manage them like a troupe of actors, seeks to monopolize power on all levels. We are witnessing a “global government” taking shape, with “global institutions” that make decrees, laws, and even war not based on the greater good of humanity, but for the greater good of a corporate-financier oligarchy seeking to spread their power and influence to the four corners of the globe. They have done so under the poorly dressed guise of “human rights,” “freedom,” and “democracy.” As the cheap veneer that covers their true designs peels away, we are outraged but perhaps at a loss of what to do.
We are witnessing the destruction and despoiling of Libya, US-funded uprisings creating unmitigated chaos across Syria, a fake-revolution destabilizing and threatening the future of 80 million Egyptians at the hands of a US International Crisis Group stooge, Mohamed ElBaradei. And while disingenuous pundits still try to convince us that these are real revolutions and that real change is around the corner, we are on a road that leads to nothing more than absolute subjugation, exploitation, and inevitably much worse.
We have been convinced through a lifetime of lying manipulative media and our sabotaged education system that change comes only through a ballot box, hoisting up placards, and street mobs. In reality, elections are rigged – and whether the actually mechanics of the elections are rigged or not makes little difference when all the candidates are sponsored by the same corporate-financier interests. Like a theatrical performance, the same manager presides over all the actors on the stage in a story that is ultimately a work of complete fiction. Likewise, street mobs are easily manipulated, generally led by the very people protesters think they are “rising up against.” Emotions run high, and the energy of the people is easily harnessed as a further means to the global elite’s ends.
Real power lies not with political office, but rather in the ability to actually, physically do something. In fact the very definition of power is the “ability to do or act; capability of doing or accomplishing something.” When a politician says to build a bridge, it is not he who builds it. Rather it is engineering firms who have the tools, knowledge, and means to literally, physically shape the world around them. When a politician sends his nation to war, it is most certainly not he who fights it, rather the military and its soldiers, the industries that arm these soldiers, the logistical networks that transport them to the front line, and the corporations that feed, cloth, and shelter these soldiers. When a politician makes any rule, regulation, law, decree, or proposal, it is never he who actually “does” it.
Stock up with Fresh Food that lasts with eFoodsDirect (AD)
Corporations like General Electric, Monsanto, DynCorp, Halliburton, Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Wal-Mart, Exxon, Google, BP, and ATT most certainly have the “ability to do or act” and literally change the face of the earth. In fact, the vast majority of the rules, regulations, laws, decrees, and proposals, that our politicians feign to have developed on their own, come from think-tanks funded by and representing the collective interests of these very corporations. They literally fuel society, move mountains, bridge rivers, manufacture machines that dominate the air, land, sea, and even space, hold dominion over our means of communication, and oversee the distribution and sale of nearly everything we use on a daily basis. That is power.
Any means of protest or “change” that does not undermine or effect this current balance of power is nothing more than a superficial, ineffectual, and ultimately futile exercise at best, and a self-defeating, counterproductive, co-opted acceleration of humanity’s consolidation and control under these global corporate-financier interests at worst.
Changing the Balance of Power
To actually change the balance of power, we must understand how the global corporate-financier elite have accumulated so much power to begin with. First and foremost we the people have paid into centralized mega-businesses for generations, funneling our work, savings, attention, and our dependency into the hands of the wealthy elite. Secondly, the global elite have augmented their positions in society with self-proclaimed authority, a myriad of rules, regulations, laws, pomp, and decrees that protect their various rackets and monopolies. They have also completely infiltrated and commandeered the political system. The United States federal government for instance, is increasingly demanding state and local governments become beholden to them, thus defeating the whole purpose of having a state and local government in the first place.
Quite obviously then, to change the balance of power, the solution must address these two factors. First we must end our servile dependency on consumerism and the “paying into” this corrupt corporate-financier system. Humanity as a whole is endowed with tremendous creative abilities – consumerism negates these abilities and reduces us to mere human-livestock. We must become producers once again, particularly in America where the nation was built on production, industry, creativity, invention, and rugged individualism. Second, we must recognize the “corporatocracy” as the illegitimate parasites that they are, and render moot their ever growing list of laws, rules, and regulations designed solely to protect their own interests at the cost of society and the world as a whole.
It Has Already Begun
The control of agriculture is one of the fundamental sources of power. Agriculture feeds, clothes, shelters, and even fuels society. It is something that we cannot do without, and depend on for our health and our very survival day to day. It is one of the first logical aspects of the current paradigm one should consider “taking back.” And taking back people are.
It began in Sedgwick, Maine, where a local ordinance was passed protecting local farmers and markets from federal regulations designed entirely to destroy localized agriculture on behalf of mega-corporations like Monsanto, Cargill, and Syngenta. Rather than asking permission, the good people of Sedgwick, Maine simply declared their sovereignty vis-à-vis a state and national government that has long outgrown its mandate. The neighboring towns of Penobscot, Blue Hill and Trenton followed suit. Douglas Wollmar of Trenton, a local farmer who helped push through the ordinance in his town, cited Thomas Jefferson who said, “I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society, but the people themselves,” in regards to shifting the unwarranted influence and power of the federal government back into local people’s hands.
In the spirit of Jefferson’s words, the “Local Food and Community Self-Governance Ordinance of 2011” clearly and unequivocally declares its sovereignty in all matters regarding local agriculture in what can be called a “modern Declaration of Independence:”
“We the People of Sedgwick, Hancock County, Maine have the right to produce, process, sell, purchase and consume local foods thus promoting self-reliance, the preservation of family farms, and local food traditions. We recognize that family farms, sustainable agricultural practices, and food processing by individuals, families and non-corporate entities offers stability to our rural way of life by enhancing the economic, environmental and social wealth of our community. As such, our right to a local food system requires us to assert our inherent right to self-government. We recognize the authority to protect that right as belonging to the Town of Sedgwick.
We have faith in our citizens’ ability to educate themselves and make informed decisions. We hold that federal and state regulations impede local food production and constitute a usurpation of our citizens’ right to foods of their choice. We support food that fundamentally respects human dignity and health, nourishes individuals and the community, and sustains producers, processors and the environment. We are therefore duty bound under the Constitution of the State of Maine to protect and promote unimpeded access to local foods.”
And this is the true nature of freedom. It is not merely “doing what you want,” rather it is taking on full responsibility for yourself and your place within your local community – having complete mastery and control over your own destiny, which requires self-reliance, self-sufficiency, and political and economic independence. We have been duped by the current power brokers that “doing what we want” is the total summation of freedom – not realizing that “what we want” is a perception carefully managed and manipulated by the system. In other words, like a caged rat, we are free to do as we please, as long as it’s done within the confines of the cage. The current power brokers have convinced us that the cage bars are there for our own good – if we even notice them in the first place.
Translating Food Sovereignty into Total Sovereignty
Food is a fundamental aspect of power – but it is not the only aspect. Water, energy, industry, communications, security, transportation, and education are also essential. Translating the food sovereignty movement into a total sovereignty movement is the next step in the real revolution. A single county is more than capable of handling its own energy requirements, the management of communications, its own security via the sheriff and his ability to deputize, the production of clean water that meets the requirements of the local people, the management of transportation, and all matters regarding the education of its people.
Proof of this is the modern city-state of Singapore, no larger than most US counties, that indeed manages everything from commerce, transportation, and education, to their water supply, energy, and defense. Singapore boasts one of the best education systems in the world, a formidable military, and is a regional hub for industry and technological research development. We can imagine then, American communities building a similarly localized independent society based on the US Constitution. These communities, independent and thriving, would act as cells do in the body, constituting healthy states, and in turn a magnificent nation – true to the principles it was founded on, honoring those who laid and defended with their blood that foundation.
By declaring and exercising our sovereignty in all matters on a local basis, we leave the elite’s cage of societal management and begin managing our own affairs free of their influence. It is then up to us as to where our destiny leads us, a destiny we ourselves shape directly, day to day, rather than waiting and hoping in vain for a better “administration” next election. We must stop reacting to the global elite’s strategy of tension, ever reacting to their outrageous provocations and egregious crimes against humanity.
We must instead look ourselves in the mirror and understand that we are the ocean upon which their entire empire floats, and we can just as easily sink that empire. Instead of reacting, we must start simply acting – locally, as the people of Sedgwick, Blue Hill, Penobscot, and Trenton have, declaring and exercising our sovereignty and independence on a daily basis. We do not need to ask permission to exercise what is our birth right. We do not need to ask permission to reassert our sovereignty in matters concerning agriculture, commerce, industry, or education. We simply need to start doing it.

Independance starts within the mind.
Just like Love, if one does not love himself, how can he love others?
Who are the people worshiping that 40 foot owl? or the people in those secret societies?
JFK, Truman and Jefferson warned about stuff a long time ago?? and so did Jesus no? if there is any truth to all that?

Something must be wrong with the equations in our sciences?
When one stops and analyses how many people on this planet are religious and believe in a GOD no matter what religious belief you are part of. And when you see all the chaos out there, something is wrong terribly wrong.
Either the concept of GOD is a big lie or twist or spin, because illogical so many believe in a good GOD but are readu to kill for a GOD?????
Why would a creator then say: I created you to my image??????

God said “Thou Shall Not Murder”, but the (satanic) Catholic blashphemy changed it, thus sealing their fate until Judgement Day.
When God created us in His image, it was not with eyes and ears and fingers and lips, etc. It meant that ORIGINALLY, before the Fall, we were created perfect. Lucifer snuck into the Garden of Eden and made short work of that.
You are not supposed to just believe in A God. There is only ONE God. Picking “one” out and believing in that one is a sure fire way to start of wrong.
The weaker you are, Vic, the more confused you will be. Once people realize that only physical force will remove them, and that the NWO will attempt to stop that force by taking back your job and your home, thus ensuring that you fight by day and sleep in the woods by night, then and only then will the world have an army ready to take back our respective countries.
May 25th, 2011 at 7:41 am
Independence will come when enough of us stop complying, thereby taking away their power over us. We give them power by saying, “OK” to whatever they want to do. But each one who does stop complying is already independent. place of refuge 2012 dot com

Yesterday I asked if it would be a good idea for Alex Jones to dedicate a daily section of his show to possible solutions. This section could also be used to bring attention to protest marches or other community action activities designed to resist the corrupt will of our governments.
There were several responses and I thank those who took the time to reply.
“chicofruitbat” stated, ” getting the word out and educating people is the only real way” to make a difference.
This in my opinion is a half truth. In business there is a common phrase, “Give me solutions not problems”. Changing our society for the better is the most serious business. We can’t expect to accelerate the “awakening” by approaching men with only the problems. Most men will simply reject the message through a subconscious fear that there is nothing they can do about it. I think we can agree that nobody will embrace bad news with enthusiasm if there is no solution. Alex Jones raises awareness and educates, but this process is compromised without a focus on solutions.
“truthnow” suggested that we diversify the use of our currencies, through the use of the Euro, Yuan(coming soon), Gold, Silver or even Copper.
I agree with the sentiment, but all major currencies belong to the cabal of global banks. To use the Euro instead of the Dollar would be to support one criminal as opposed to the other. Also retailers would find it difficult to publicizing their willingness to accept a diverse range of currencies without this being detected on the radar of the Federal reserve and the henchmen.
“JosieWales” solution seems to me as more realistic, he suggested that we buy from local stores and avoid centralizing our wealth in the hands of the large cooperation’s. This would effectively prevent any business from acquiring excessive power and influence. And to limit power seems to be one of our key objectives. Even though most people can’t afford to turn their back on the large discount retailer, I think we can all afford to offer a greater percent to our local stores.
1. Solution one – we should always present with the alarming facts behind the “awakening” is to be more diverse with those whom we trade with.
“morwith” suggested educating people on ways to bypass internet censorship. To explain he posted the link http: //en.cship.org/wiki/Main_Page
It would be great if Alex Jones added to his website a message board full of solutions and if those who are knowledgeable about certain issues such as I.T. could provide a guide for those who are awakening to protect their privacy. Yes dedication to solutions is as important as a dedication to the problems.
Asil Says: – civil disobedience at airports.
And how disobedience spreads when others take the courage from the example we can give as a group.
Solution two – Always offer as much resistance to the TSA as possible. This may even simply mean politely questioning the need for such searches and challenge the effectiveness. Other people in the queue will hear and also start to ask questions. At least the TSA will know that the people are truly beginning to stir and won’t be so confident to push the next level.
patrick gragg says, “NO KING BUT JESUS CHRIST”!
The four major corner stone’s of society are Government, Religion, Family and National identity.
Government has tried to dismantle the three alternative blocks by giving religion, family and national identity unbalanced and negative press. Naturally this is done to leave government as the only block we can dedicate ourselves to.
Therefore Patrick Gragg makes a great point. We should all at least devote ourselves to an alternative to government. That maybe for some a devotion to their flag, their family or their religion. For others it will be all three.
Solution three – to devote ourselves to various pillars in our community. Pillars from which we can draw strength and rely upon. Ironically family, religion and national identity have all proven themselves to be stronger and more reliable than government.
An ancient leader once proclaimed, “to send a mob against a trained army is to throw away your men”.
Without solutions or a place to find solutions, our awakening becomes an uncoordinated mob which will stand no chance of defeating the army of those who spend their days in government employment, seeking new ways to enslave us.
Please keep posting solutions. We need to raise awareness to both problems and solutions.
Perhaps Alex will indeed dedicate part of his show or his website to solutions. I ask this of Alex as time is short and he already has an established audience.
Where will the next protest rallies be? How can we join and show our support. What are the solutions? Common Alex, put some momentum behind the awakening and unit the masses with knowledge and purpose, strategies and solutions.

Anus_Active_Is — Quit posting the same bile. We already have the best solution. Now we just need to ACT. Maybe Germany can learn something from us: DON’T SIGN YOUR SOVERIEGNTY AWAY. REMOVE THEM BY FORCE.
Germany, home to the Nazi’s, the Illuminait, and social engineering, has brilliantly duped the Germans into thinking that rally’s could ever bring about change. Making Germans think that they have won something through peace.

Your free to go your on way Tom. Without planning, strategy, solutions and discipline, you have a greater chance of winning the lottery. But if your so eager for a disorganized gun fight with the government, I am sure I will be able to watch your attempt on the evening news. I certainly don’t recommend it, but we are all men of free will. I will do what I do and lets see if you do what you want.
Alternatively you could grow up and join men of honor.

I lived my whole life believing in the Declaration of Independence and through out my life I bucked the system. Every chance I had, I would always find ways to make money, not in the food industry but with my belief that I could do anything I wanted and I did.
I am one of those people who hated school, because I thought it was a waste of time and to this day my friends that i went to school with are teachers and coaches in our school we graduated from. I preach to them, start to teach the kids to prepare to survive. The kids today are trained to be workers not thinkers. The system with computers and TV, have made them week in body and soul.
I did what I could to survive and I will continue to survive. Being independent in thinking and working made me believe in the Declaration of Independence and being American, was great.
Today I look back 2 years when I quit watching TV and connected to the Internet only and the things I learned about the Constitution of the USA and the Bill of Rights, being taken away right in front of my eyes, makes me so angry.
This anger in me scares me because I was always against WAR and believed in the Ten Commandments from Moses. The basic principal of Law and these Politicians and the Globalist Elite are breaking some of those Laws and in the END the Patriots of Freedom will get there just reward and the others will only be just another story of how the Patriots beat the crap out of the Globalist…!…

Alea_iacta_est…you have many good points.. Come on Alex, give us a way to mobilize efficiently and effectively in order to stop this before bullets do fly. As a fellow Texan, I am appalled at our State Legislature’s easy aquiecense to the TSA/DOJ mafiosi tactic. I once was opposed to the idea of secession, but the more I read about actions such as this, both here and in the MSM, I would much rather take my chances as a Free Republic, than continue with the status quo. Texas has the infrastructure and resources to be fully self sufficient. If the Feds shut down the airports, then maybe we should shut down our coastal facilities to any and all U.S. Govt. traffic. How’s that for playing hardball?

Ask yourself this, why did they change the Lords Prayer from St. Matthews 6:9-13 in the KJV of the Bible from
9: After this manner therefore pray ye: Our father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10: Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in Heaven.
11: Give us this day our daily bread.
12: And forgive us our debts, as we forgive out debtors.
To: And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us? What does that mean. I have often wondered. And now I learn because it’s not even real.
Now Freemen all over Canada are becoming free from the system, and it is all legal.
Check out Freeman on the Land on youtube along with Freemen being stopped by cops and there is nothing the police can do about it. Also a Freeman in court, and the judge gets up and leaves which then gave the Freeman the sign that his case was closed and he left the courtroom. A lot to learn, but the info is out there. I’ve heard that the Jordan Maxwell info on all of this is full of holes, which makes me believe he has done this on purpose. Use your own mind, and find the facts. It is alot of work, but if you want to be truly free and live as God intended you too, then you won’t mind doing the work.
We have been lied to our entire lives. Our birth certificates have made us a corporation by capitalizing our names on our BC. Why do you think Obama is getting away with so much. Because he doesn’t have a BC, I believe. But he should also not be president. This entire system is corrupt and needs to be torn down completely and started anew.

I meant to also say, the cops cannot do anything as long as you aren’t breaking the law. You must always have your cell phone to take videos for when you are stopped, as you will be stopped because you don’t need a license, nor insurance etc. All of that is illegal to our God given rights. The govt is not above the law of God.

I have just realized what the forgive us our trespasses as we forgive THOSE who trespass against us means. Or what they want us to THINK it means.
And it sickens me. This is why the “church” always says that when one does ANYTHING to you, that you need to forgive them. Which is why there is so much free reign over the children and the pedophile rings are so rampant in our world now. Well this is a huge part of it. What a disgrace these beasts are.
Another thing is that they call us human beings, which in their law books a human means that we are monsters. I can’t recall which law book this is in. It’s in the Freeman on the Land video on youtube.
After all, the don’t think of us as equals to them, but in Gods creation man is created equal. Not humans.

Well stated, I concur. Lets do it. Wait. If I miss work today I can’t pay my rent. If I don’t pay my rent I will have no headquarters to work out of. If I don’t make my car payment I cant go to the rally, but, I can’t really go to a rally cause my boss won’t let me off work. Damn it!
OK, OK, wait, another plan ; I will quit my job- but then I will lose my health care and COBRA is $500 bucks a month to continue it. Well who needs healthcare I could not use it anyway cause of my 5000 dollar deductible.
I really want to be free though so maybe its worth it,I got it I will sell off my assets and donate to the cause wait, I have no assets cause I just lost my house, hmmm I will have to think about this a little longer, Maybe the rich folks could get things started and I will provide labor or military help, WAIT THATS HOW THIS WHOLE THING STARTED!!!!
