-Caveat Lector- ------- Forwarded message follows ------- Hi All, I have been thinking. A sudden revelation hit me a few days ago about why George Bush Jr. has such trouble communicating - falling all over his words, using the wrong words, etc. I think it is because there is a dysjunct between what he says and what he really believes. When what we say is authentic there is usually a natural flow. George Bush jerks around, his eyes searching for reaction and approval. If he gets a bit of approval, he is energized, and gets excited, and tries to say more, still falling over his words, searching awkwardly for sentence endings, stumbling all over. When we don't tell the truth, we are tense - and we have to be very careful what we are saying because we might trip and let slip the real truth. A further complication is that Bush has to either read his speeches, or he has to memorize statements. If you notice, he often accents the wrong words, as though he doesn't really get the meaning or significance. We are dealing with a chronic and inveterate liar in George Bush, as his father and mother before him. It is very important to know we are being manipulated. George Bush is not a legitimate president, and if someone wants to maintain that he is a legal president, there is no way to claim him a morally legitimate president. This means his whole presidency is a lie. This means we are going to be lied to - a lot. This means we must be alert. Already we are seeing signs that information is being manipulated and distorted, events denied. The latest is that they are saying Bin Laden has made a profit on the bombings because he has insurance stock. Is this true? I don't know - but I wonder if George Bush also has insurance stock? Remember that George Bush is a man who believes that other countries "out there" are evil. His knowledge of history and politics is abysmal, and he functions on a giant degree of ignorance and prejudice. No wonder he, like his father, can so easily "go after" them, and declare war so casually. In his mind these are not really human beings. Some of the questionable information floating around: 1) That the terrorists were after Air Force One. Seems it would have been almost impossible because of physical ground logistics, and even more impossible in the air. The terrorists were not practiced pilots, while the pilots of Air Force One are top of the line. This story was supposedly concocted to cover for why Bush didn't show up and was running scared instead of standing bravely to lead. 2) Bin Laden has been labeled as the brain and funding behind this act, but there is no proof yet, and those in the area say he isn't. Bin Laden himself says he isn't. 3) Bush lied about so many things before becoming president, such as his military experience ( he was taken off his plane because of his drug problems, and should have been courtmartialed for not showing up much after that.) Anyone else would have been. His drug problems, his drinking, and so many other things have been hinted at. When these stores started to come out, a furor was mounted against those who revealed the information instead of holding Bush responsible. As my son says, it's not that we *don't* know, it's that we *won't* know. We don't want to know, and so we go into denial, and then become very hostile to truth tellers. So now, what we do. We need to be alert to the brainwashing we will be subject to. How do we recognize it? Watch for catch phrases - phrases, ideas, words, being repeated over and over. Some we've already seen: "America Under Attack", which has changed now to, "America at War", "America's New War" (ominous - sounds as though wars are to be expected like fashions, exchanging one for another with the seasons.) And then there is "The First War of the Twenty First Century", again with the suggestion of further wars to be expected, as though war were a normal and healthy phenomenon - an idea which is itself a form of brainwashing. The same music being played and replayed on TV. Notice how much patriotic music is being played now, and religious music. In connection with the war against Iraq the catch phrase is "weapons of mass destruction".a phrase designed to scare the living daylights out of us as we envision Armageddon and the end of everything, and make us willing to go along with anything to avoid such a fate. Of course, what is neatly ignored is that the United States is the world's #1 maker of *weapons of mass destruction*, sold them to Iraq and just about every other country (hey - profits are sweet - the heck with what is done with the weapons.) We also supplied them to various countries because we supported their attacks against other nations. Bin Laden was trained by us, as were these latest terrorists. Watch for "off" pronunciation. An example from IRAQ - "Sodom" Hussein - with the clear connection to Sodom and Gomorrah. Another is the fairly recent way the Right has started referring to the Republican Agenda, and the Democrat agenda. Suddenly they don't want to say "Democratic" Party -it's become "The Democrat Party". Repeating "Osama Bin Laden is the one who did this" - without proof. Repetition is powerful - repeat something enough and the brain begins to believe it. An idea starts to feel familiar and comfortable. Maybe he did it, but we had him tarred and feathered before we have definitive proof. Watch the use of religion - Neptune on the MC of Bush's Inauguration. Religion makes us feel as though God is on our side - and we are the good one. Further it makes us feel we have a religious mission - and only "bad" or "evil" people would fail to respond to a supposed call from God. The ""other" is demonized, becomes "the devil". Watch for a repetition of ghastly images, especially if accompanied by catch phrases. Try not to watch too much, as we begin to become numb after a while, and our brains begin to believe what we hear repeatedly. We are being hypnotized. We are being brainwashed so we will follow Bush and co's agenda unquestioningly. Don't just read or watch mainstream TV, radio, and/or magazines and newspapers. Pay attention to some of the alternate sources. Some media are not so beholden to the big corporations, and so aren't as scared to reveal the truth, o at least a different perspective. Watch out for seductive ideas designed to make us feel happy, secure, and "good". For instance, the suggestions that we must "stand as one", "support our president", "rally together", "make sacrifices". Watch what is happening and try to interpret yourself. For instance, do we really believe that "all Europe" is backing us? We now know they aren't - but watch how often the media will still proclaim it. Recognize that the government and media are going to slant the news in favour of their policies. Where is Dick Cheney? Why haven't we heard boo from him all week - at such a crucial time in US History? Not a word of comfort or consolation. Has he been sick perhaps? He showed up for a brief interview on Sunday morning, but not in any TV studio. Why the secrecy and absence? Be practical about what you hear - don't just accept the media interpretation. How would 5 years or more of constant war, "a long, sustained military campaign", actually affect us?. "The course of victory will be long". Why? Why is anyone so willing to accept such a (sub) standard of life? And why is this acceptable when the current procedures for getting terrorists have not worked in the past? What is really going on here? Could it be that war suits George Bush just fine? We all know that a war ups a president's ratings enormously. Could that have something to do with this? Is this war designed to save Bush's second term where before his presidency was going down the drain? These ideas seem so outlandish and far-fetched that we think they must be paranoid, but keep in mind that the government DID know about Pearl Harbour ahead of time and let it proceed because it provided the impetus, in a very divided country, to push people over the edge to approve of the US entry into WW2. What happened to Bush's loudly vaunted education plans? Did anyone notice how he quickly he junked that, claiming that his only priority now was war? He has effectively dumped everything, children, the elderly, health care, social security - to be plundered for his war - jobs, education. Heck - the country can go to hell so George Bush can go kill - which is what we were afraid he would do before he took office. Remember this is the man who blew up frogs, who vaunted the death penalty, who supported the gun lobby, etc. remember this is the man who a number of us said would have us quickly in a state of war. We need to pay attention when what we are told doesn't seem to jibe with what we thought we saw. Ask questions - and don't just accept everything passed on by the media. Pay attention to our health. David Letterman was in tears on camera, as was Dan Rather. This event is a shock, and that will have an effect on the body as well as the psyche. Get your sleep, eat properly. I was at the supermarket tonight, and found I had filled my cart with donuts, cakes, candy. I made myself put most of it back. We need protein, we need vegetables. We don't need sugar. People may find themselves drinking more - alcohol, coffee, whatever. Not a good idea. In a time when we are feeling emotionally vulnerable, we need to support our body's immune system. Anxiety will affect family life. Children may regress, may start wetting the bed again, clinging. They may want to sleep with their parents - let them. They may not want to go to school. My dentists's daughter asked him if her school might collapse, or his dental office. People's sex drives may go down. Partners may become irritated and cranky with each other. Child abuse and spousal abuse may increase. Many are going to feel depressed to some degree, and so we may see all the symptoms of depression: withdrawal, distancing, exhaustion, lack of energy, lack of enthusiasm, numbness, hopelessness, lack of joy. Lawns may not be mown. People may not go to movies as much, or to the zoo, concerts, even out to dinner. I have heard of a number of people who didn't leave the house for several days. My realtor told me she has lost several sales - people feel insecure and so backed out. The shock we have experienced may manifest as fear and anger, and we might be surprised to find ourselves more out of control and less patient than usual. We may also become hypervigilant - after all, our subconscious has been alerted, and is afraid this can happen again. Our senses will be alert: noises may irritate more, a messy room may cause us to lbecome upset, perfume may seem too strong (attracts the enemy - like an animal to the prey). I have found myself having to turn the TV down a bit lower than usual. A lot of voices sound grating to me - especially the bubbly, cheery ones. I can only tolerate gentle voices at the moment. That hypervigilance may well be permanent. We have been traumatized, and this experience has made itself indelible in our brains and in our tissues. This is one reason I suggest not watching the constant repeats on TV of the planes, for instance, hitting the towers. Each time we see it it becomes more embedded - like being hit, then hit again, and hit again. We will never be the same. This is a wound. We may heal eventually, but we will bear the scar. One reason I am so distressed that George Bush wants to launch us into a full-scale war is because that will deepen the wound, and create new ones. We will see chronic depression developing, and all the problems I mentioned above will be exacerbated, and healing time will be put on hold. We cannot heal as long as the hitting continues. George Bush's plan will delay healing and deepen the wounds and all the social and psychological problems. The confusion and betrayal is also part of the shock, as is the awareness so many of us have that we can't trust our government. We have been lied to by the spin doctors so much we hardly know what to believe any more - if anything. Here we are trying to recover from the tragedy of this event, the lost lives, and already we are hearing that maybe our government was in on this act, that they had 12 minutes to warn the workers at the Pentagon to get out before the plane hit, and didn't. We are hearing that Bush and co sure pulled this "War on Terrorism" idea together so quickly that maybe they had it cooked up all along. We saw Bush become president in a less-than honest way - with even our Supreme Court betraying us. We see special laws protecting tobacco and arms manufacturers, and others who do us harm, and our politicians aid and abet as they are bribed to maintain these destructive policies. And we see our politicians protected from real life by laws they wrote themselves to assure they had health care, pensions, and all the other necessities of life the rest of struggle for. No wonder they are in no hurry to implement health reform - they don't need it! And now we hear tonight that the Twin Towers imploded the way buildings do when they have been professionally set to do so, and that men were seen in the basement before the collapse. And then we hear that's not so. What to believe? How do we live with all this? How do we maintain sanity in an insane and unfair, immoral climate of events and characters? We have to have an awful lot of courage. We have to be able to trust our understanding when all around us are telling us we are wrong. We have to be able to rise above the flag waving, the hymn singing, the calls to patriotism, the requested sacrifice of our children as soldiers in an insane war we are being brainwashed and manipulated into believing in. We have to trust the spiritual vision within each one of us which tells us that an eye for an eye is still blinding someone, killing in war is still murder. We do not want to be murderers, and we must not allow ourselves to turned into murderers or even people who approve of war. We must believe in and talk of and model kindness, negotiation, respect for diversity of beliefs and life goals and philosophies. We must become wiser, deeper, more loving. If we believe in angels, call on them. If we believe in the power of thought, project healing, project gentleness, project wisdom, project cooperation, project the best in us. This is time for those who meditate, to meditate. This will help calm our anxiety and center us. If you can, go and sit outside in the grass and fresh air - ground yourself. If you do yoga, do yoga. Do whatever it is that you do to maintain balance and calm. Clear your system of the adrenalin which is making us tense, rigid, poised for action and attack, and let the blood flow back to bathe our brain cells again so we can think more clearly. Try to get outside just yourself. Doing something helpful for someone else can help us rebuild our confidence again. Stop in and see an elderly neighbour who might need to talk. See if any local community agencies need extra help at the moment. Surround your self with beauty to give yourself hope again. maybe just one flower - maybe a beautiful candle, maybe family photos, maybe a beautiful piece of cloth draped on the table. Wear clothes which lift your spirits. Play music which can help to calm you, to reorganize the disarray in your psyche and body. Fantasize about the world you want to see - and send that energy out into the universe to influence mass consciousness. Most of all - send as much love out to the planet and to all our fellow human beings as you can - remember that we are all in this together, and we can only be protected and safe if everyone is. Especially take care of the children.
