FEDERAL ROBBERY


NEWS WITH VIEWS - Alan Stang

By now you know that the administration of Communist world government terrorist Jorge W. Boosh recently conducted raids on the Liberty Dollar people in Indiana and on a mint in Idaho. The Liberty Dollar is – was – a gold or silver medallion, or a certificate backed by those precious metals, and the Boosh FBI conducted the raid because the corporations that control the Federal Reserve toilet tissue couldn’t stand the competition.

Remember that the Federal Reserve System is illegal, because the Act that created it gives control of the nation’s money to those private entities, which Congress, under the Constitution, has no power to do. It is illegal for Congress to usurp power it does not have; it is just as illegal for Congress to give its power away. The paper “currency” the Fed issues is a fraud on its face, because it is not federal, there is no reserve and it is not a note. A note is a promise to pay, and the “Federal Reserve Note” promises to pay nothing.

It is nothing more than a piece of paper with fancy printing on it, and has exactly the same status as a hot check that local businesses accept only because they don’t know the bank hasn’t caught up with it yet. Gresham’s Law says bad money drives out good, but here the criminals recognized that good would drive out bad, because however dumbed down Americans are in the country’s Communist schools, they still understand that a chunk of gold or silver is more valuable than a piece of paper with numbers on it, the size of the palm of your hand, that is intrinsically good for only one thing.

The thieves apparently stole not just a mountain of precious metals; they also stole all the records, all the files and computers, so the Liberty Dollar company has no way of knowing who owns what and cannot even communicate with the customers who have been robbed. Indeed, they even stole the telephone manuals, so the company cannot reformat the phones. Needless to say, they froze the company bank accounts.

That’s what happened in Indiana. In Idaho, they stole even more gold and silver from the mint that makes the Liberty Dollars, where Liberty Dollar customers store their holdings. The mint is an entirely separate business that Liberty Dollar does not own. What does that tell you about the safety of your “safe” deposit box? Wasn’t one of FDR’s “solutions” to the Fed’s Great Depression his theft of the people’s gold? Achtung! You are leaving der Western Sector!

When they had finished, the company was out of business. The attitude of federal thieves who perpetrate such robberies is, “Yeah, maybe you’re right. Sue us.” Of course, with no funds that is difficult to do, especially when the defendant can print bigger numbers on more pieces of toilet tissue to pay his lawyers.

The U.S. Mint recently announced that Department of Justice prosecutors say the use of Liberty Dollar medallions “as circulating money is a federal crime.” The government says that people who buy them “should be aware that they are not genuine United States Mint bullion coins and they are not legal tender." Of course the Liberty Dollar people do not claim the medallions are any such thing. BTW, the word “coin” is apparently federal property. You and I are forbidden to use it about anything flat and round made of gold or silver.

Could the development that precipitated the robbery be the delivery just a few days earlier of almost two tons of Ron Paul Dollars? That works out to as many as 60,000 of them. Remember that Dr. No is the hero who wants to abolish the Fed. Throughout his twenty years in Congress he has argued for honest money. He is the only candidate for President in either party who addresses the subject. And, mirabile dictu, college students of all kinds are enraptured.

By the way, when I use the word “hero,” I am not talking about an entertainer who is paid millions of dollars a year to play a three-hour game every Sunday. I am talking about a man who risks everything, even his life, which I can assure you Dr. No is doing by daring to challenge the conspiracy for world government.

Imagine the effect had that mountain of Ron Paul Dollars been allowed to flow forth. Imagine people across the country using them as the medium of exchange to buy and sell, attractively designed, flat, round pieces of gold with the avuncular doctor’s face on every one. No presidential candidate has ever enjoyed such a campaign tool. The result would have been electrifying.

Yes, the robbery fallout itself will inspire his campaign, but nowhere near as much as the Ron Paul Dollar would have in circulation. Again I ask, did that obvious fact precipitate the crime? Probably the last thing Communist world government terrorist Jorge W. Boosh wants would be President Ron Paul, demanding that Congress abolish the Federal Reserve and the income tax. The script next year calls for President Hillaroid and her bull dykes or Rudy in drag.

The man who created the Liberty Dollar and made it a very profitable business is Bernard von NotHaus. Federal prosecutors, the mob under bosses who send out the FBI thieves, are talking about mail fraud and other serious charges that could send von NotHaus to prison for many years. “We have no money,” says von NotHaus. “We have no products. We have no records to even know what was ordered or what you are owed.”

When the uniformed crooks conduct such a raid, they take everything, which recalls the piece I did a while back about offshore financial planning. This is what I was talking about. In today’s world, in an America governed by rotating crime families that will do anything to preserve their monopoly, a company in a red flag business needs to prepare.

If you are in such a business, the first thing you need to do, at least, is make your doors as difficult to break in as possible. Many jewelers do that routinely, even keep their doors locked. You have to push a button and be eyeballed to get in. Of course you can’t keep the criminals out. The idea is to gain enough time to push the doomsday button, the big red one on your computer.

Remember that Hillaroid may have the machine, and Edwards may have the hair and B. Hussein Obama may have the color and female impersonator Giuliani may have Pat Robertson, but Dr. No has both the Constitution and the geeks. The doomsday button will be installed by a Ron Paul real money computer geek, with instructions to redo your software so that, when you push the doomsday button, everything instantly goes down.

When the thieves boot up your stolen computers downtown, nothing is there but Firefox. Indeed, you should develop the habit of hitting the doomsday button routinely at the close of business daily, just in case the ghouls elect to come at night. Each morning, you insert the necessary drives and boot up. Yes, all this can be arranged easily. Any geek worthy of the name can do it.

Why are the nerds with Dr. No? Because they know he is the only candidate who is sure to leave the internet alone. Government terrorists would like to shut the net down; they developed it so the labyrinthine entrails of the federal leviathan could communicate with each other, but it got out of control. They would like to shut it down or restrict it to their own use, but they don’t know how. And they fear the nerds, who could unleash fearsome retaliation. If they could hack the DOD mainframe, they could get in anywhere. Thank God for the nerds!

By the way, remember that we are by no means trying to impede a federal investigation. Not at all. You will take these precautionary steps only because of the present crime wave, especially the epidemic of industrial espionage. If federal authorities accidentally become impeded, because they come unannounced and unidentified like common criminals and try to break in, then of course we regret the misunderstanding and the fact that all the data are gone.

Government agents descended in this way many years ago on a national patriotic organization in Maryland. Because this apparently happened before the universal use of mobile phones, patriots had to fan out and surveil the approaches to the office, to head off the lady whose job it was to bring the data back every morning. They did find her in time, so the intruders got nothing.

Again, a while back I did a piece on offshore financial planning. Find it in my archives – go to alanstang.com and click on Offshore Financial Planning at the right edge – read it, and reconsider taking action. Consider: the conspiracy for world dictatorship and its flunky, Communist world government terrorist Jorge W. Boosh, could not be displeased when you go offshore – indeed, they should logically be enthusiastic – because going offshore is their own policy.

Isn’t it? They have sent everything else offshore: your jobs, your manufacturing, your military, your technical support, etc. Don’t you find yourself again and again these days talking to someone in India or the Philippines or Central America? Shouldn’t they now be ecstatic if you get into the spirit and send your money offshore? After all, they constantly condemn “isolationists” – that’s you – people who simply want to mind their own business. They constantly urge “internationalism” instead. Okay, get international. Far be it from us to get crossways with Communist terrorist Boosh. There’s a “big world out there.” Go offshore.

If you have never done it, be reassured. It isn’t nearly as forbidding as you may think. Start with a simple bank account. There are many banks in other countries as big and as sound as any in this country. Sounder. The Boosh administration is presently collapsing the dollar and preparing runs on U.S. banks, to create the usual “emergency” that would justify replacing the dollar with the “Amero,” the currency of the new North American Union that would include the former United States, Canada and Mexico.

Remember, it was your Intrepid Correspondent who devised the best name for the new country, Canusexico, which not only includes the names of the three former countries, but also cleverly includes sex, without which you really have no hope of selling anything. (That is why the North American Union falls on its face.)

Finally, in my experience offshore banks treat me like a customer, not a drug trafficker. Their tellers are not trained by the federal government to expect “money laundering.” Of course, were I to start snorting white powder in the bank, they could become curious, but since I don’t do that, they don’t. Start your offshore adventure by finding a reliable adviser .

The World Hates God - John 7:7

I so completely HATE the world. Why? The world is 100% sin yesterday, today and more tomorrow. All those headlines, storylines of bad news - the evil that is rampant across our Country. And this is on the internet. I mean, no wonder I don't watch any TV news (local or national) - that's right. None! Do I ever glance at FNC? Oh yeah, once in a while. I take a peek once in a while. On occasion I get a blessing and hear something I once thought would be indicative of this then new network.

I completely love the Lord. There is no other choice. Either you love the world, hate the Lord; or hate the world and love the Lord.

Matthew 6:24
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.



John 7:7
The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.


Why is the USSC, Federal Government, and varying states stomping on God-given rights in this Country? America was founded by God-believing men and God-fearing men. With the help of their co-conspirators (news networks) the masses have been subtly brainwashed for years. Manipulation with distortion and outright lies for years over the television. A corrupt and cowardly Congress passing laws that our Founders would have thought unfathomable in such a promising new County, the United States of America.

We are witnessing the oppression spreading throughout our Country. Just a few examples: The 10 Commandments in stone removed, removal of visible tributes to the Lord (not the least location the now completely government run public schools) and denying Believing students the freedom to pray as they need it. A witness in Court, with his left hand on the Bible, swearing to the the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth period. The 'so help me God' now removed. And deliberately ignoring the Bible and welcoming the wicked and perverted souls who rejoice their freedom to be deep in unashamed evil sin.

Legalizing murder of unborn babies from beginning to post 9 months. Legitimizing the unthinkable though spoken of clearly in Romans 1. Our Freedom of Speech is endangered, our born citizens rights are being watered down to something almost impossible to recognize.

Is this continuing and growing oppression because they hate you or me? Or do they hate other believers, or people who love God or at least honestly fear Him? Or do they hate God? God tells us is his word as above. (John 7:7)

Our rulers, in the midst of doing evil in the eyes of God, go forward declaring sodomoites and unnatural women as normal and just a lifestyle. This is one of the last BIGGEST BLOWS against God's Word.

And thanks to many denominations preaching those relationships as normal, these wicked people declare, in false bravatto, that Jesus accepts them and approves of their lives.

Surely Jesus died for them too. And yes, He did. But not in the way they think. They think all they have to do is believe Jesus died, sacrificing His life to give them a ticket to Heaven. To their minds they don't have to do anything. He did it all.

He died and shed His Godly blood so that people could repent and ask Jesus' forgiveness. But true to God's Word, hearts are hardened. And to help them along the devil has succeeded in rewriting God, editing God and having many books claiming to be the Bible. That's part of the deception in ecumenical-land.

I think they look at it sort of like Affirmative Action for Heaven. Well, I have bad news . . . no change that, God has bad news for them. That is NOT how it works. You can keep on believing it, that's your decision. But that's NOT what God says.

If you truly repent, you WILL change and the Holy Ghost will be with you guiding you. He does not push you to sin. His job is to let us know in special ways what we should or shouldn't do. Praise the Lord's salvation, once and for all, never ending. If you continue deep and unashamedly in your sin, you are definitely not indwelled with the Holy Ghost.

Know that, if you continue in your sin 100% and glory in it . . you are not saved. By claiming you believe in Jesus (difference from trusting in Jesus Christ) you are blaspheming Jesus. You are rejecting Him. You can believe in God till Kingdom Come. But you won't be in Heaven when you die.

I John 2:16
¶ Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

You can believe in Jesus, and believe what He did. But unless you repent, realize there is nothing you alone can do to get to Heaven then:

You need to recognize you are a sinner


  1. Repent in your heart;
  2. Ask Jesus for forgiveness;
  3. Trust in Him as your Saviour.

The immediate blessing is the indwelling by the Holy Ghost.

II Timothy 1:14
That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us.

Your continuing wicked life is total opposite of the Lord Jesus Christ. With true conversion you shed your old nature and become a new person. This is not an option. This is a blessing. You change and always for the better.

2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

It is my opinion that emptying all the closets is one of the biggest blows against God's Word. And America is not far from fitting in with Globalism. Our once fine, moral and God-fearing nation is but almost barely a memory. What a shame!

I don't know when the Lord Jesus will return and call up His flock. But only between now and then is there a chance to repent. It's a narrow road, but the only road available to Heaven.


Matthew 7:12,13
¶ Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

A Horrible Day In The Neighborhood

As a preface I must say I was pulled into this article word after word after word. Pat Boone is quite the writer. Please? Read this in full . .


OK, you've bought a house and moved into a new neighborhood. Actually, you used to live in this very area, but events caused you to move away, and now you're back. It's a nice, albeit modest, not fancy or highbrow neighborhood, and you're looking forward to really settling in and getting to know your neighbors.
But before you've even unpacked, you come to realize that your neighbors don't want you there. When they're unable to keep you from moving in, a violent zealot next door proclaims that he will never accept your presence, no matter what concessions you offer or what friendly overtures you make.
Across the street lives a real fanatic, known to make and throw bombs, who declares he hopes your entire extended family moves in – because that "will save us the trouble of going after them wherever they are worldwide."

Kyle Hoffman 17, Gone to Heaven

Ed came up our stairs, knocked on the door, opened it and said, "Pray for Kyle Jr., he's been in a car accident. We think it's bad." Of course we would and he said, "Thanks." and headed back down to their apartment. This was around 11 pm. Sunday, October 28th.

I prayed and waited. Finally I came back here and played my favourite game. Words were going through my head at warp speed. Finally, the Lord let me know that I needed to get downstairs. Around 12:30 a.m. as I walked down our stairs, I heard sobbing. I went back up half-way and told my son, "They're crying." And back down, tapped and opened the door.

Next thing I knew Marie was sobbing. She said, "The Doctors don't expect him to live past 8 more hours." Oh my heart . . She held on and I hugged her and her body shook as she cried. Then I saw my son next me tapping my shoulder. Marie saw him and turned to him. I walked over to be near Bonnie. She was on the phone and I just patted her shoulder. She was concentrating on the phone and couldn't raise her head.

They were gathering everything and getting ready pack up in the van to head out to Harper's Ferry WV. Kyle (and Chris) had called to tell Bonnie & Ed and Marie the bad news about Kyle Jr. Kyle Jr., the brother of Marie. Kyle was in the hospital. The next thing they heard was that he would not recover and was given about 8 hours to live.

Kyle is the second, and last, son to get into a vehicle accident. A brother he never knew, Joey, died almost 20 years ago. He was 6 or 7 and had exited his assigned school bus. I have no idea how long he waiting before he thought it was safe to cross.

But he decided it was and as he started walking across the road, the school bus started moving. The driver later claim that Joey couldn't be seen. That may be true. But I can't vouch for it. I have been in a Semi. And in the truck you are very high and can see. But school buses are not that high. And so Joey's little body was run over by his school bus.

My guess is that the driver didn't check across the street or on the side of the door. All I know is that a lot of safety rules came as a result, according to Ed & Bonnie (Papa & Grammy). And that poor driver has to live with that day forever.

After Joey was killed, that left his only sister Marie, around 3. Then after Joey's death, a couple of years later, after a successful vasectomy reversal, Chris became pregnant with Kyle Jr. In the aftermath of the loss of their first son, both Chris and Kyle Sr. became Believers. And they rejoiced at the impending birth of their second son. He was born on April 15, 1990. 

Kyle went into rebellion in mid-teens. But recently, he came back to the Lord for His fellowship. The Lord hadn't walked away, Kyle had. That is if he was saved before the rebellion . . If he got saved during his rebellion, then that started him changing, becoming a new creature. I only know the family is positive Kyle was saved.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. KJAV
And he fell in love with Andrea. She became pregnant and they both looked forward to the baby and he was taking it all very seriously. Their daughter is due around the end of January.

On Sunday night, Kyle was being driven home with his friend who had just bought a sports car. They live in WV which tends to be rather curvy with the mountains and all. Well the friend was really pushing the car and at 80 mph lost control heading into oncoming traffic. In a van was a driver who saw the car careening and swerved to avoid it. The van and car collided, but not directly head-on. The two passenger sides crunched together.

The driver of the sports car was killed instantly. Kyle was knocked unconscious (don't know the extent of other injuries). In the van was the driver, a Pastor, his wife and 9 year old daughter. The Pastor's wife is still in the hospital but will recover. The Pastor and his daughter were treated and released.

Kyle was rushed to ICU. Whatever else the Doctors and Nurses had to do, I don't know. But he was unresponsive and the Doctors said he may last another 8 hours. His family was present when he went home to Heaven. And his Fiance' was there as well. She is due in January or February '08.

Again. We didn't want to believe it. But again the Lord takes another son. Oh the hurt of merely thinking about it.

But this time Dad reacted much different. The pain doesn't lesson a second time. But this time Kyle Sr. had Jesus to carry him and his wife. They have gone as Missionaries to Chile twice. 

Philippians 4:17 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. KJAV


I never met Kyle Jr. But I got to know him through Bonnie & Ed talking about him as we've become close friends. And I've met Kyle Sr. and Chris. And I know Marie very well. Her two children are Leah (3) and Dakota (2). And I know Tanya, Bonnie's daughter and Ed's step-daughter. But Bonnie & Ed both brought up Tanya. And Tanya's very special daughter, Angel. She is very smart, very much an only children close to her Mom.
 
My son and I both shed tears and were so troubled. Then Marie called my son to let him know that Kyle Jr. had died. He told me when he came home from work Monday afternoon. I cried for I had so hoped for a miracle that was not meant to be. 

Please remember something so special. Say "I love you." everytime your loved one is going out somewhere or you are. Say it to your husband, your wife, your son, your daughter, your Mother or your Father. You never know. That may be that last thing you tell them and that's wonderful. I know.

Animal Lover Worried About Family Pets



What caught me off guard was the recent inferno in and around San Diego. Oh my . . .

I freely admit, the first thing I thought about are family pets. That's what gives me agonizing worry. But I am now seeing a story about people who wouldn't leave home without them. I know I wouldn't!! Humans will take care of each other, but animals are helpless. And the following story warms my heart and puts me more at ease.


I know some pets and woods animals died. And that makes me sad. But it wasn't a total loss. But now there are stories about people who saved their pets with a concerted effort.


I send my love to those people and am sorry for the loss of their homes; but am so very happy their family and pets are safe. I Praise the Lord for protecting most of His creation during those horrendous days.

REST OF THE STORY

Pets Remain Priority for Displaced
Californians Fleeing Homes From Wildfires


DEL MAR, Calif. — Troyann Chappell needed help this week when she evacuated from Spring Valley to flee the fires. Not only did she have to get her 92-year-old friend Adele MacAdam out, she also had to take with her 14 cats, two dogs, three rats, a cockatoo and a parakeet.

Hers was a plight facing many displaced Californians who couldn't bear leaving home without their pets. What they found were shelters willing to accommodate the animals along with the people.

"It was quite a variety," said Amy Maher, the board chairwoman of Noah's Wish, a pet charity that sent 30 personnel to Qualcomm Stadium Monday night. "People evacuated everything: chickens, ducks, dogs, cats, horses, llamas, goats. We had a lot of birds."

Why the Loss of Part-Time Officers Hurts So Much

It's now been a week tomorrow that we lost our special part-time Police Force. Bluff, Doug, "Uncle" Pat, . . all have earned their way into my heart, and I ache as I no longer see the black and white Police Cars go back and forth. I now see the occasional white and green Police Car and my heart sinks.

(We've actually lost our independent Police Force. Some let go, some moving into the Town Police Force.)

BUT these three men, without my even realizing it, kept a special eye on my place while my son was gone. I had no idea at the time how much they liked my son and that they felt it important to make sure I was okay.

This is why is hurts not seeing them around now.



The part-timers . .
all three are so special.



Bluff loves the Village and lives just on the outskirts. He cares about the kids. He's dead serious about his job but he has a heart. He stopped by one day, on duty, to talk to my son. He was complaining about a little kid's piggy bank being robbed. He was upset. He works in the City and as a Detective in a nearby town.


He became my hero when I found out, after the fact, what he did for me without my knowing it at the time. My son had to be away for a while. And at home, I am devout and soldout cat lover. But I had gone a bit overboard with the population. That happens.

But one of the girl teens that came to my home . . decided to take matters into her own hands.

She walked up to Bluff (sitting in the car) one day, a few months before my son returned and told him, yes TOLD HIM, he had to get rid of my cats. I just had too many she complained. She always has been a little snot.

Well, his anger starting to rise said, "If you think I am going to make Mrs. L***** get rid of her cats while her son is gone, think again. Don't ever come up to me again and don't ask again. Go to hell." Well, I don't like the last words, but he was mad. And he cared about me and my family (I'm a widow . . it's me and my son.)

I did have too many and as it turned out before my son came home, I was down to 4. And that's how many I had when my son came home. We went down to one and then our Siamese arrive and it's a content twosome.

One of the times when my son saw Bluff, after coming home . . Bluff told him what had happened. And he was glad I had reduced the population . . but I did it . . and that's the way it should be.

The local caring part-timers really know the residents and care. Any Police Officer, let alone any man, who cares that much about my love of cats and knowing how heartbreaking it would be to be forced to lose them . . well he deserves to be called a HERO in my book. And so, Bluff will always have a very special spot in my heart. He's actually now a friend of my son. And that means a lot. His wife and him are very nice people.

Uncle" Pat . . what a nice guy. He lives in the Village. And that is what the kids call him . . "Uncle" Pat. Two years ago he had a heart attack. My son came home almost in tears. But we prayed for him and waited for his return. It seemed like forever for the guys. He has returned and is doing very well.

He used to ride the Police Bike around the Village proper.

I was with my 'unofficial' second son one night in court. His Dad sat on the other side. I was only there for Jimmy. Uncle Pat came up to Jimmy and gave him suggestions about how he should stand and how he should talk to the Judge. He cares . . He knew how scared (and rightly so) Jimmy was and dried to calm him down. That's Uncle Pat.

Pat has another Police Job as well and a side job.

Doug . . the only local Police Officer to give me a ticket. **laughing** . . for a STOP sign infraction. This was when we had just about just moved in to Angola. As he handed me the ticket, I had a tract in the shape of an admittance ticket. He asked what it was and I told him he could know for sure about going to Heaven. He thanked me and took it.

It was the Lord's irony . . a ticket for a ticket.

I hadn't known him yet but I would eventually. He'd knock on the door looking for one of the boys to talk to him. I had the boy's club in my home.

One night in particular the phone rang around 3 a.m. My son was away. Some kid, who had had some other guys over now was missing his wallet. And he called me why? Why was he yelling at me??? Because I was the only one (stupid enough) to answer the phone.

Long story short. He made lots of threats and then demanded I write down his number. (Now who is stupid?) I did, hung up and called the Police. Doug was on duty and arrived soon. After he asked, I explained what happened. When he asked if I had the phone number, he grinned when I told him the boy had demanded I write down his phone number.

Well, Doug called him. What did he do? He told the boy never to call Mrs. L***** again. And if he didn't obey he would personally come to his home and arrest him. I was sitting on the couch just grinning. I've given the short version. I could tell the kid was arguing.

Doug hung up the phone and with a smile (around 4 a.m. by then) asked, "Is there anything else I can do for you Mrs. L*****?" I just giggled and said, "No, I think you've taken care of it. Thank you." "No problem . ." And he left.

He married a few months ago and lives in the Village. He is also an Erie County Sheriff.
Epilogue:
And so I am heartbroken . . I looked at my son today and sadly observed, "No Doug on duty today." He sighed and agreed. Bluff worked Sundays and Uncle Pat on Saturdays until Doug would come in for his shift. Three very special men who I will love and respect forever.

Additional note: Officer Bluff has since had 2 heart attacks. He's no longer on the Town Police Department. But he's doing well. He's a Detective in a nearby town. (1/26/12)

Calling Evil Good Again

by JAN MARKELL



The "religious Left" is at it again. The National Council of Churches (NCC) is praising absolute evil, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Is there a positive word to say about him? Perhaps that God loves him in spite of himself. Nonetheless, I think it is time the "religious Left" take off their clerical collars and come back to reality. They represent many people of faith and while many NCC leaders and participants are leaning very liberal, there are still good people in their churches who stick around to make a difference. They should protest with righteous indignation.





* He sponsors some of the world's worst terror groups by giving them money, weapons, training, and spiritual justification.
* He has harbored some of the world's worst terrorists, giving them shelter, protecting them from retaliation, including many from al-Qaida.
* He has motivated many to kill innocent Americans, Israelis, and others in the most despicable means.
* He kills Americans in Iraq by shipping arms, terrorists, and money to the war zone. He destabilizes the fragile Iraqi government, encourages the killing of Christians, Kurds, and Muslims who don't agree with him.
* He leads a regime that has lied about its nuclear plans for years.
* He cries "death to America" and says Israel should be wiped off the map. And, he denies the Holocaust even though he is trying to create another one.
* He is a mad man driven by messianic visions and expectations. It is up to him--Mahmoud Ahmadinejad--to bring in the Muslim Mahdi messiah, and then it's really duck soup for the rest of the world. It would even be fatal to the National Council of Churches in spite of their acclaim of him.



The NCC delegation included leaders from the Mennonite, Quaker, United Methodist, Baptist, Episcopal, and Catholic churches. I think they need to do a reality check. There are some outfits you don't do business with and this is one rogue regime that leads the pack. We are not dealing with a man with a full deck. Ahmadinejad's comments while on U.S. soil recently should have sent a message loud and clear to outfits like the NCC that holding hands with a man like this could lead to unbelievable consequences. Trusting his word could be fatal to nations, not just individuals. The entire Middle East could go up in flames. An oil crisis the likes of which no nation has yet seen could erupt, and Israel could be devastated by Iranian missiles at any time.
But remember, Israel is just "the little Satan." When outfits like the National Council of Churches praise a guy who calls their own country "the great Satan," you know strong delusion is running amok.
