I should have added common core. It's the new education system that is completly untested. The government is testing these systems on our children, how does that make you feel? O yea, part of common core that is coming is facial recognition devices your kids have to endure every year. The test tells whether or not your child is showing aggregation, sadness, anger ext. Also, to get to the next grade you have to take a test. So learning now is designed around passing a test. Guess what, the test cost money. On average the parents have to spend 30$ per test. When you get to high school they have 3 tests a year they have to pass. So, 9 tests to get to high school, then 12 tests once in highschool for a total of 21 tests or 630$ per student. Don't get me started on how the tests are designed to have kids fail, so add another 5 tests per kid to those numbers. On top of that, look at who is backing Common Core....All big buisness. They are data collecting everything so they can better fit you into their design.


I know I know, most think this is crazy. I dare those who think this to look into just one of the things I posted. Do your own homework. However, I can expect at least 3 one line responses to this, with several insults. Let the insults commence.

U.S. ARMY WARNS OF POTENTIAL 'AIRBORNE' EBOLA
Virus could be transmitted by means other than contact

NEW YORK – While Centers for Disease Control and World Health Organization officials continue to insist Ebola cannot be transmitted by air from one person to another, an Army manual clearly warns the virus could be an airborne threat in certain circumstances.



The handbook published by the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases, USAMRID, titled “USAMRID’s Medical Management of Biological Casualties Handbook,” is now in its seventh edition.

The most recent edition was published in 2011, with more than 100,000 copies distributed to military and civilian health-care providers around the world.

On page 117 of the handbook, in a chapter discussing “Viral Hemorrhagic Fever” (VHF), a category of viruses that includes Ebola, USAMRID says: “In several instances, secondary infections among contacts and medical personnel without direct body fluid exposure have been documented. These instances have prompted concern of a rare phenomenon of aerosol transmission of infection.”

Page 117 continues to specify: “Therefore, when VHF is suspected, additional infection control measures are indicated.”

USAMRID recommends the patient should be hospitalized in a private room with an adjoining anteroom to be used for donning and removing protective barriers, storage of supplies and decontamination of laboratory specimen containers.

WND recently reported the World Health Organization, in a largely overlooked media advisory email, admitted there are some circumstances in which the current strain of Ebola in West Africa can be transmitted through coughing or sneezing.

“Theoretically, wet and bigger droplets from a heavily infected individual, who has respiratory symptoms caused by other conditions or who vomits violently, could transmit the virus – over a short distance – to another nearby person,” the WHO Ebola situation assessment said.

“This could happen when virus-laden heavy droplets are directly propelled, by coughing or sneezing (which does not mean airborne transmission) onto the mucus membranes or skin with cuts or abrasions of another person.”

Air-purifying equipment

The USAMRID handbook recommends that for all VHF patients with significant cough, hemorrhaging or diarrhea, the hospital room should be a “negative-pressure isolation room” with six to 12 air exchanges, adequate to pump air out of the hospital room on a constant basis through bio-filters.

To make the point about airborne transmission of VHF viruses, including Ebola, USAMRID says all persons entering the patient’s room should wear double gloves, impermeable gowns with leg and shoe coverings for contact isolation, eye protection and HEPA (N-95) masks or positive-pressure air-purifying respirators (PARRS).

In the absence of a large, fixed medical-treatment facility, or in the event of an overwhelming number of casualties when isolation rooms may not be available for all patients, USAMRID recommends that at a minimum, VHF patients should stay together in “a ward with an air-handling system separate from the rest of the building when feasible.”

The manual notes that clinical laboratory personnel are “at significant risk for exposure” and should employ a bio-safety cabinet when available, with barrier and respiratory precautions when handling specimens.

‘We have to consider the possibility’

Dr. David Sanders, a top Ebola virologist and Purdue University professor of biological science appeared on Fox News on Monday to discuss his research suggesting Ebola can be an airborne virus.

“Our own research shows that Ebola Zaire enters human lung cells from the airway side. So it has the inherent capacity to enter the lung from the airway,” he said.

“I’m not saying that there’s any evidence that the current spread is due to anything but bodily fluid contact, but we have to consider the possibility that it can enter through an airway route.”

Benghazi= attacked by terrorists and at worst covered up to save some political face, weak "conspiracy" at best

USA spying= Possibly illegal but not really a secret.

IRS Scandal= Maybe unethical but seeing as how none of those groups should have got the tax exempt status they claimed not illegal

fundamentalist Muslims or Christians both scare the shit out of me, the more conservative of each group are alright, but again no conspiracy

I agree there are hundreds more reasons not to trust the USA. No doubt.

Did you read the article or just the headline? It's not the smoking gun you think it is.

According to the Times, the finding of the chemical weapons still didn’t support President George W. Bush’s rationale for war because he contended (read: lied) Hussein was concealing an active chemical weapons program. Instead, U.S. forces discovered munitions that had been manufactured before 1991, possibly leading the government to not disclose the findings. “They needed something to say that after Sept. 11 Saddam used chemical rounds,” Lampier said. “And all of this was from the pre-1991 era.”
Others told the Times that the U.S. may have hidden the findings because five of the six incidents in which coalition forces were wounded by chemical weapons involved munitions designed by the U.S.
So the US gov't discovered weapons that we sold Iraq back when they were fighting Iran and were a friend of ours. Which has nothing to do with the post 9/11 claims made by the US gov't regarding Iraq's weapons programs and their links to al-Qaeda.

The injuries sustained were from weapons the US manufactured. High irony considering the reasons we were told it was necessary to invade Iraq.

Anyway, this is a silly diversion from the very real fact that the US gov't has and will lie to people at will. This is an empire and they are quick to remind you of that if you dare step out of line.

It looks like we’re going to be saddled with this ebola roll-out for a while. It seems to be working according to plan as the public jumps on the fear bandwagon and all kinds of media reports are taken at face value regarding what’s going on. A very easy environment to manipulate public sentiment, emotions and responses which is their favorite milieu.

The old problem – reaction – solution game.

I don’t like dwelling on this subject but it is front and center now and we are still in the process of deconstructing it all which is important to do. True knowledge is empowering, especially in the face of a matrix of deceit that’s trying to tighten its web of control to new levels right now.

When we see things for what they are they no longer have any power over us, as long as we stay out of the many traps they lay for us in our daily activities.

A lot of good information is coming out of the alternative media, but even that needs processing and careful evaluation in light of the hype being thrown at us. We need to see what resonates and let it steep for a while as new information surfaces. Most of all, if it engenders even more fear it’s not a place to go. True helpful information is empowering, although often challenging to our previous ideas or subconscious paradigms. And that’s good. Just let things sink in and put them in the “holding tank” to either stay around for further evaluation or to eventually get flushed out as either false, detrimental or superfluous information.

Most of all, beware the spirit of the information. Fear, and especially panic as it appears is starting to appear, should be kept out of our minds and hearts. Nothing good can come of them no matter how fascinating the projection may appear to be – much like their ghoulish zombie meme carefully embedded in society. Nor is this a time to take any of this flippantly as the war is on for our minds and we must be vigilant.

Latest from the Globalist WHO’s Scare Machine
As an example and to try to keep this metastasizing situation in perspective and where they want to take it, here’s something from today’s news:

LONDON (AP) — West Africa could see up to 10,000 new Ebola cases a week within two months, the World Health Organization said Tuesday, also confirming the death rate in the current outbreak has risen to 70 percent.

WHO assistant director-general Dr. Bruce Aylward gave the figures during a news conference in Geneva. Previously, WHO had estimated the Ebola mortality rate was at around 50 percent.

Aylward said the new rate confirmed it was “a high mortality disease,” and that the U.N. health agency was still focused on trying to get sick people isolated and provide treatment as early as possible.

He told reporters that if the world’s response to the Ebola crisis isn’t stepped up within 60 days, “a lot more people will die” and that health workers will be stretched even further dealing with the spiraling numbers of cases. (Source)

Note that regarding any information coming out about any of this, nothing is substantiated or verifiable, nothing is documented. We’re forced to take their word for it as mainstream propaganda gains a tighter and tighter grip on information. In fact, CNN and others have been caught staging ebola deaths to drive this issue forward. Not surprising, just as they’ve done with reports of “atrocities” in the staged terror war.

cell-towers1
Overview – The Apparent Program At Work
Overall, we know there are plans to lower the world’s population levels. A lot of macabre scenarios and images have been around a long time, from FEMA camps, guillotine purchases, weird trains for shackled passengers, huge amounts of stored plastic coffins and massive mass burial graves being constructed.

Meanwhile people are well aware of many other programs regarding the deliberate poisoning of humanity. Many of these such as the debilitating electromagnetic radiation war on humanity are sidelined in people’s consciousness but they are just as potent as this ebola scare. They are all designed to wear down and weaken the human condition. Again, very dark but important information. The endgame is what we come to realize and it’s certainly not for humanity’s benefit. That realization is the one those we call asleep refuse to recognize. They can see corrupt government and corporate greed in most cases, but as far as connecting the dots to the rest of the programs and the overall plan, they think that is more than they can bear.

Well, it’s just the opposite. Refusing to see the light of truth will lead them to a quick and desperate demise.

The Multi-Benefit Plan
As always, there are several parallel benefits for the power elite with these types of engineered false flag scenarios. Already the US has sent more of their infamous “boots on the ground” to do who knows what there in Africa. It just so happens these resource rich nations would provide some wonderful bounty for the corporate and bankster outlaws. Meanwhile, the entire continent of Africa has been a gem imperialists have wanted full domination over for a long time, so what better way than to decimate their populations via engineered malnutrition, massive vaccine programs and rampant disease introduction as well as fomented civil wars…and then send in the “solution” – more US and NATO decimation.

Same old bag of dirty tricks.

Similarly, reducing the US to a military controlled impoverished third world status has been their intention all along. Ebola is simply another step in this progression. They’ve obviously been planning feverishly for some major disaster scenario for a long time. We’ve been watching these programs converge and a medical emergency is a diabolically clever route. After all, who’s going to confront an epidemic or medical teams with guns?

Behold the castration of the American people. Will they see it coming?

“But that’s not all.” The neocons are feverishly predicting a nuclear strike on US territory in order to keep the terrorism meme in full play at the same time. Talk about a squeezed population. When anything goes, anything goes. And these psychotic social engineers will be sure it does.

Immune-System-Natural-Detox
Their Relentless War on the Human Immune System
Amongst the many assaults on humanity is the vaccine program. Like chemtrails, vaccines are a delivery system. Once desperate people are accustomed to taking intravenously something to supposedly help and protect them, and will then voluntarily, cooperatively and even eagerly line up to get their injections, you have the perfect system in place.

Already bombarded with drugs and adulterated foods, air and water the duck is sitting awaiting its demise.

Now all you need is the motivation. Hence, long eradicated diseases have been resurrected and others genetically modified into new, more virulent strains. They really haven’t worked that well, as SARS and Swine flu and a few others had way less cases than the normal seasonal flu, statistics of which have been buried in media hype.

It seems the human immune system is pretty damn good at resisting invasion by enemy viruses just fine.

So that’s why they’re are at war with our resilient immune systems. Like our unquenchable spirit and eternal consciousness, the amazing human body is incredibly adaptive and self healing if we just feed it healthy and living foods and take reasonable care of it. So what do they do? Attack our immune system, with anything and everything they can to weaken it. Heavily adulterated and genetically modified food, fluoridated water and chemtrailed air, and the most direct attack of all, vaccines laden with mercury and other toxins and most of all adjuvants – agents to deliberately overtax and weaken the immune system, along with the viruses they’re embedding into these vaccines. Diabolical, but a reality.

There’s one more thing that’s being woefully forgotten about in this overall picture. Radiation, the ultimate assault on anything living. We’ll get to that in a minute as it’s a crucial piece of the puzzle.

Where Does Ebola Come In?
Ebola supposedly “evolved” in Africa beginning in the 70’s, with small outbreaks each decade since, but with lots of media hype and imagery about how devastating and horrific it was. It’s very similar to another known disease there called Marburg’s disease so Ebola may have been their first attempt at altering it. We do know mad scientists in biolabs have been tinkering with and creating bioweapons, on the pretext of producing “protection” against bioweapons, for a long, long time. They just can’t resist anything that can be weaponized, especially if all you have to do is introduce it into a population and it does all the rest on its own.

Pretty efficient and cost effective and very easy to cover any involvement via plausible deniability. Such is the way of the evil sorcerers.

Other so-called pandemics, the definition of which was altered to be much broader by the complicit WHO, have not taken off but served their purpose of creating warm up scenarios and getting the public used to the idea, as well as load them up with as many vaccines as possible. This is how to break down the immune system which comes in real handy when this next round of viral warfare gets introduced. As John Rappoport points out, like AIDS, Ebola could very well be a catch name for a variety of symptoms caused by just about anything.

Makes total sense to me. The ultimate scare and control umbrella.

With the fear tactics being stepping up and the lying propaganda in full swing people are going to think even the most common ailments could be ebola now, and either go into a depression and hide, or flee to the nearest clinic where their chances of getting sick increase 100 fold – especially if they take a vaccine. What’s worse is newly empowered authorities can suspect or claim anything they want as ebola now that that heavily loaded word has been programmed into everyone’s head.

The following clip is a pretty good rundown of the vaccine agenda, a very important aspect to be very familiar with as this program rolls out. Take particular note of the rabies connection, which according to the physician in the video is nearing epidemic proportions, though unreported in the corporate media.



The X-Factor the Public Will Never Hear About – Radiation Sickness
It’s stunning the similarities between the symptoms of ebola and radiation sickness. Americans especially have been continually bombarded with toxic radiation from Fukushima for over 3 and a half years now. Radiation poisoning symptoms take time to appear. We’ve talked about this several times, as it’s one of those ticking time bombs we’re all monitoring. It’s the same with chemtrail and GMO poisoning and their long term effects and not a pleasant subject to ponder, but we can’t hide our heads in the sand.

This is now.


World-Radiation

What most people don’t realize is that the effects of radiation poisoning are many, and cancer is only one of a long list of symptoms and causes of death, including a host of seemingly unrelated issues like heart attacks and diabetes which are escalating wildly. What’s most remarkable is that the supposed symptoms of ebola and the known symptoms of radiation sickness are almost identical.

These include, for both:

Fever
Headache
Nausea
Vomiting
Diarrhea
CNS Impairment
Stomach Pain
Bleeding
Bruising
Muscle Pain
Hair Loss

Is there a connection? At the least, if this program keeps rolling out and more and more are showing radiation sickness symptoms it will all get put under the heavy constraints of the ebola control program, which is metastasizing into a form of medical martial law. Ebola may even partially be a plan to mask as well as utilize this reality using their new catch all bug paradigm.

But this whole radiation aspect is something to be aware of. It’s upon us front and center as much as anything coming at us.

quartz-crystal-silica-human-ascension
Claim Your Immunity
I find it inspiring that the wonderful immune system is so resilient and that they’re having such a hard time putting out our flame of resistance. It’s so representative of their war on our consciousness which they can never win. There may be serious casualties in the months and years to come if this keeps rolling out but they can’t quench our eternal spirit no matter what. If we graduate from here we just move on to the next level and on with the show we go!

Fear is one of the biggest weapons against the immune system, as well as for our spiritual immune system. Stay clear of it. Fear of death is the ultimate fear for many and that really needs to go. There’s no place for it. It doesn’t even make logical sense never mind any spiritual sense. It’s perhaps the biggest underlying fear porn program of all, fostered by everything the social engineers can come up with. It’s time to shake it.

And whatever you do, do not get vaccinated for anything nor let those you know and love do so either. That may take getting off the grid in some cases, but steer clear of possible checkpoints, especially when they start to make vaccinations mandatory.

Above all, live above it all. Keep raising your voice exposing these lies and continue to bolster the courage and awareness of those around you, but stay above it.

Kick your empowering activities into high gear and keep on the offensive. And stay happy. It’s the best medicine and great for both types of immune systems! There’s plenty to be absolutely ecstatic about. The stars still shine through the chemtrail haze and the sun still basks our gorgeous living planet in warmth and positive energy.

Identify what’s going on for what it is but don’t stare at the illusory cage they’re trying to erect, that’s what they want us to do.

Keep your vibration high and keep the laughter flowing. Oh how that infuriates these dark types when we laugh at them, and oh how it keeps us smoothly sailing above it all!

Enjoy the ride like the youthful storm surfer you are!

Much love, Zen

I did read the whole story, and I agree on your assessment. However, there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Shit, a pressure cooker is now considered a WMD. Also, are you saying Iraq didn't have Al-Qauda training camps? You don't think Sadam had anything to do with it? Everybody is guilty. Trust nobody.

Bottom line, the US government isn't acting in the best interest of it's people concerning Ebola. Nobody knows what will happen if it infects 100 people in America, lets not find out. The conversation has turned from what should be do about it, to, is that racist if we do it? Political correctness has pussified America. Maybe we should give Ebola a participation trophy.

Milky, were you going to answer why you trust the government? If not, you and TJO are the worst kind of posters. Making claims that even you don't take the time to back. Or can't back, either one.

ebola is a level iv microbe. now i'm going to quote from the cdc website.



BSL-4 builds upon the containment requirements of BSL-3 and is the highest level of biological safety. There are a small number of BSL-4 labs in the United States and around the world. The microbes in a BSL-4 lab are dangerous and exotic, posing a high risk of aerosol-transmitted infections. Infections caused by these microbes are frequently fatal and without treatment or vaccines. Two examples of microbes worked with in a BSL-4 laboratory include Ebola and Marburg viruses.

^^ http://www.cdc.gov/training/quicklearns/biosafety/ page 10

All work with the microbe must be performed within an appropriate Class III BSC , or by wearing a full body, air-supplied, positive pressure A suit.

i don't like the context where any time someone challenges the official line of bullshit spewed from the cabal controlled minions ppl like myself are bullshit conspiracy freaks until we quote from literature in msm (mainstreammedia).

now, i just quoted from the us army manual (post # 304) and the cdc website with links included ^ above post).

ebola is a paragraph on a page in a book. the denial types treat each case/paragraph like an isolated event instead of seeing the threads weave into undeniable cabal controlled fabric. (like bldg. 7 world trade center bldg. that fell down and burst into flames hotter than any airliner fuel could muster (melted steel, other steel beams sheared in half by unexplained force) and killed thousands and the world's largest private bank inside that just happened to be emptied by hundreds of brinks trucks days prior to the collapse where $billions of gold and diamonds magically disappeared and the owner gets double redemption on the bldg. 'cause he took out two, not one insurance policies on this kind of catastrophe) and thousands died even though nothing hit bldg. # 7; twin airplanes, three towers sheeple). bldg. 7 was too far (several blocks) from 1 and 2 to get affected by their collapse.

CNN- Ron Klain has just been named Ebola Czar by Obama. His experience is giving out money for the stimulus act. He has very little experience in Health Care. He is reported to be a strong manager who knocks heads together. Maybe he can pound some sense into those government types. It looks to me that if government lips are talking, they are probably lying.

LONDON (AP) — The World Health Organization has admitted that it botched attempts to stop the now-spiraling Ebola outbreak in West Africa, blaming factors including incompetent staff and a lack of information.

"Nearly everyone involved in the outbreak response failed to see some fairly plain writing on the wall," WHO said in a draft internal document obtained by The Associated Press, noting that experts should have realized that traditional infectious disease containment methods wouldn't work in a region with porous borders and broken health systems.

The U.N. health agency acknowledged that, at times, even its own bureaucracy was a problem. It noted that the heads of WHO country offices in Africa are "politically motivated appointments" made by the WHO regional director for Africa, Dr. Luis Sambo, who does not answer to the agency's chief in Geneva, Dr. Margaret Chan.

WHO is the U.N.'s specialized health agency, responsible for setting global health standards and coordinating the global response to disease outbreaks.

Dr. Peter Piot, the co-discoverer of the Ebola virus, agreed in an interview Friday that WHO acted far too slowly, largely because of its Africa office.

"It's the regional office in Africa that's the front line," he said at his office in London. "And they didn't do anything. That office is really not competent."

Piot, director of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, also questioned why it took WHO five months and 1,000 deaths before the agency declared Ebola an international health emergency in August.

"I called for a state of emergency to be declared in July and for military operations to be deployed," Piot said. But he said WHO might have been scarred by its experience during the 2009 swine flu pandemic, when it was slammed for hyping the situation.

In late April, during a teleconference on Ebola among infectious disease experts that included WHO, Doctors Without Borders and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, questions were apparently raised about the performance of WHO experts, as not all of them bothered to send Ebola reports to WHO headquarters.

WHO said it was "particularly alarming" that the head of its Guinea office refused to help get visas for an expert Ebola team to come in and $500,000 in aid was blocked by administrative hurdles. Guinea, along with Sierra Leone and Liberia, is one of the hardest-hit nations in the current outbreak, with 843 deaths so far blamed on Ebola.

The Ebola outbreak already has killed 4,484 people in West Africa and WHO says within two months, there could be new 10,000 cases of Ebola every week unless more measures to fight the outbreak are taken.

When Doctors Without Borders began warning in April that the Ebola outbreak was out of control, a dispute on social media broke out between the charity and a WHO spokesman, who insisted the outbreak was under control.

At a meeting of WHO's network of outbreak experts in June, Dr. Bruce Aylward, normally in charge of polio eradication, alerted Chan about the serious concerns being raised about WHO's leadership in West Africa. He wrote an email that some of the agency's partners — including national health agencies and charities — believed the agency was "compromising rather than aiding" the response to Ebola and that "none of the news about WHO's performance is good."

Five days later, Chan received a six-page letter from the agency's network of experts, spelling out what they saw as severe shortcomings in WHO's response to the deadly virus.

"This (was) the first news of this sort to reach her," WHO said in the draft document. "She is shocked."

Other experts said it was impossible to predict that the initial Ebola cases in Guinea would spark the biggest-ever outbreak of the lethal disease.

"There were a lot of mistakes made by WHO but a lot of the best public health minds would have thought we could handle this in July," said Michael Osterholm, an infectious diseases expert at the University of Minnesota.

"By the time we realized how bad things were, the genie was already out of the bottle," he said.

Osterholm said the U.N. health agency was far from the only organization to blame.

"If we fault WHO for the early dropping of the ball, the whole world has dropped the ball in some sense," he said. "Nobody is to blame because everybody is to blame."

Wouldn't be hard for it to spread there. Harry Reid said you can smell the tourist when they visit.
“My staff tells me not to say this, but I’m going to say it anyway,” said Reid in his remarks. “In the summer because of the heat and high humidity, you could literally smell the tourists coming into the Capitol. It may be descriptive but it’s true.”
