http://www.unaff.org/2000/F-Legend.htm The Legend of King Sebastian (13 minutes) Brazil Director: Roberto Machado Jr. Producer: Tempo Filmes/Brasil UNAFF screening schedule Description: Stories tell that King Sebastian of Portugal disappeared in the dunes of Marocco desert, during the Battle of Alcazar Quibir in 1578, was transformed into a black bull that appears on the beaches of the mysterious Lencois Island, off the cost of Maranhao, Brazil. In this film, he is present in the stories told by the natives as well as in the religious chants. The Maranhao variant of King Sebastian’s Legend is a unique narrative, impregnated with references that indicate historical relationship with Portugal and Africa, based on a popular background. === http://www.manorhouses.com/portinfo.htm History of Portugal Portugal (or Portucale) is one of the oldest nations in Europe, first getting its designation as a country in the eleventh century. Its rulers were appointed by the King of León before independence was gained in 1143. Much of the period after independence was spent fighting the Moors both in North Africa and on Portuguese soil. Castile in Spain was also a threat but they were defeated at the battle of Aljubarrota by the Portuguese army. Then came the period of the Discoveries and the days of great wealth for Portugal through trading with their colonies of Brazil, in Africa, in India, in China and Japan and in the East Indies. Later religious pressure from Spain caused the setting up of an 'Inquisition' in Portugal. This resulted in the expulsion of the Jewish and Moorish traders leaving Portugal with an empire based on trade but no commercial expertise. The resulting commercial decline was followed by a disastrous defeat in Morocco. Amongst the 8,000 dead were most of Portugal's nobility and King Dom Sebastian (he of the Lagos statue!). Portugal's wealth was spent on paying ransoms for those captured in this battle. With all heirs to the throne killed, the Spanish took over Portugal in 1581. In 1640, a small group stormed the palace and deposed the Spanish appointed governor. The Duke of Bragança became King by popular acclaim. In the late 1600's, gold and diamonds were discovered in Brazil which made Portugal financially strong again but this was all spent on lavish baroque style building which is so enjoyed by many visitors today. In 1755, The Great Earthquake struck, destroying most of Lisbon and many towns and villages from the Algarve coast up to central Portugal. The Marquês of Pombal, the Chief Minister took charge with the motto of 'bury the dead and feed the living'. He was responsible for the rebuilding of Lisbon in its present day grid structure. In 1807, Napoleon marched into Lisbon and the royal family fled to Brazil. Under the treaty of Windsor of 1386, the fighting was carried on by British Generals, including Beresford and Wellington, who finally threw him out 3 years later. In return Britain received the right to trade with Brazil direct and not through Portuguese merchants. Following the exile of the King there were constant struggles between those favouring a monarchy and those wanting a republic, finally on October 5, 1910 the monarchy was overthrown and a republic declared. In World War I Portugal fought on the side of the allies with the loss of many men which was disastrous economically. In 1926 Dr. Salazar became Finace Minister and later 'Prime Minister'. He was dictator until 1968 when he became incapable due to injuries received when his deck chair collapsed under him. He died in 1970 and during his final two years no one dared tell him that he was no longer Prime Minister. The dictatorship, under his successor, was finally overthrown in 1974 in a virtually bloodless revolution but not before many of the young Portuguese men had given their lives in fighting colonial wars in Angola, Mozambique and Guinea-Bissau. After two years of political instability followed during which some momentous decisions were made including the giving of independance to all of the overseas territories. For most contries involved this was a disastrous decicion, resulting in civil war and Angola with Cuba trying to replace the Portuguese troops, civil war in Mozambique and East Timor being invaded by Indonesia who massacred more than ten per cent of the population. Beginning in 1975, a strong stable democracy established itself which continues today. ==== See http://gsteinbe.intrasun.tcnj.edu/royalty/houses/braganca.htm search gotha and braganca and thurn und taxis Note: It seems that somehow these legends intertwine--about the disappearance of King Sebastian into caves in South America; then the substitution to the thron of the Duke of Braganca, who was intermarried with the old family of Thurn und Taxis, which since the 11th century or so had been on retainer to the royal family. The Thurns' main achievement was in transportation and communications--counterpart on the continent to the Rothschilds. Was it in 1848 or thereabouts that all the royal families of Europe lost their thrones? Possibly the purpose of the Illuminati was to institute a plan whereby they could wield control of the world without having to be recognized as being in charge--to operate through agents in the form of bankers and investors. These agents are then controlled by techniques developed by scientists using drugs and psychological manipulation. Note from the above site that the Duke of Braganca's son (Prince of Beira, Infante of Portugal), was born at Berne, Switzerland, on May 15, 1945--at a time when Allen Dulles was stationed there. It's looking more and more like this group is behind the octopus. We can trace them at the root of: 1. Empire Trust, which created United Fruit 2. Legends about underground bases in South America 3. Marriages to many of the American heiresses of 19th century. Could these marriages have been designed to give legal title to the railroads and industries controlled by the fathers of the heiresses? Where did the original money to create the businesses come from?

In 1572 a group of 500 German colonists originating mainly from the DUKEDOM OF SAXE-COBURG ( REMEMBER I HAVE TOLD YOU THAT THAT THE CURRENT RULING FAMILY OF ENGLAND ARE NOT WINDSORS BUT GERMAN ILLUMINATI SAXE-COBURG- GOTHA, ALSO CONFIRMED IN DAVID ICKE'S BOOK). Back to my point. 500 German Colonists from the DUKEDOM OF SAXE-COBURG were hired by SEBASTIAN the FIRST KING OF PORTUGAL to man a garrison on the Amazon River. The group had problems with the local indians and stumbled upon a cave entrance to a vast underground cavern. Headed by a German named Von Luckner the underground colony built cities in the caverns. According to Valerian two of these cities exist today. One is known as Von Luckner and the other Wagner. Underground they found others with linguistic similarities to German. Supposedly these other UNDERGROUNDERS came to Earth 30,000 years ago in response to a REPTILIAN INVASION OF EARTH. Again according to Valerian that surface living Germans of today evolved from a secret tunnel opening in the BLACK FOREST AREA OF BAVARIA. Remember what Icke said in his book. That it is possible that the ARYANS arrived from the PLANET MARS trying to flee from THE DRAGON RACE. THEN ACCORDING TO VALERIAN IN 1853. GERMAN ILLUMINATI LIVING IN INNER EARTH CITIES abandoned their reticence toward upper surface outsiders and bring a German engineer from the surface to design a single track electric railway. THE SECRET TUNNEL ENTRANCE AT THE BRAZIL-PERU BORDER IS KEPT A WELL GUARDED SECRET. THEN IN 1914, AGAIN ACCORDING TO VALERIAN. PAPERS LEVIED BY THE STATE DEPARTMENT SHOW CLEAR GERMAN EFFORTS TO MAINTAIN FREE ACCESS ROUTES TO UNDERGROUND GERMAN CITIES IN SOUTH AMERICA AND ANTARCTICA. THE SOUTH POLE WAS TO BE USED FOR FUTURE COLONIZATION. THIS CLAUSE IN THE SECRET WAR CORRESPONDENCES BETWEEN IMPERIAL GERMAN AND THE ALLIES WAS SHOWN TO BRITISH PRIME MINISTER DAVID LLOYD GEORGE BY AMERICAN ILLUMINATI MEMBER COLONEL EDWARD MANDELL HOUSE. GERMAN FOREIGN MINISTER ARTHUR ZIMMERMAN STATES IN PUBLIC THAT HE KNOWS OF SECRET GERMAN (ARYAN) CITIES IN SOUTH AMERICA , IRAN AND IRAQ. PLEASE PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE WORD ( IRAN ) WHICH IS DERIVED FROM THE WORD ( ARYAN ). Valerian doesnt list a bibliography for his sources. It is simply a time line. BUT THEN LOOK AT THE FACTS ABOUT PHIL SCHNEIDER THE MINING ENGINEER MENTIONED IN BOTH PANDORA'S BOX BOOKS. AND ALSO THE GERMAN ILLUMINATI U-BOAT COMMANDER WHO WAS HIS FATHER OTTO VON SCHNEIDER. THIS WAS THE SAME OTTO VON SCHNEIDER THAT IN 1943 ( DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE WAR ) DID THE AUTOPSIES ON THE SAILORS ON BOARD THE VESSEL KNOWN AS THE "ELDRIDGE" OF PHILADELPHIA EXPERIMENT FAME.
