    The article also referred to the Biden/Powell/Naas (CFR director) warning about a future crisis which would necessitate extremely unpopular decisions in which Obama would need community leaders' support to quell nationwide dissent:

    The impending crisis that Biden warned would test Obama’s mettle had arrived in the form of whole host of interdependent international problems that prove campaign promises are easily made but much harder to keep.

    Obama’s campaign promise to refocus US foreign policy from Iraq to Afghanistan, double its troop numbers and garner more international support is already in serious trouble.
    Somehow I doubt that this is what Biden was referring to. I suspect he was rather referring to a CIA-induced coup or campaign of genocide (Naas mentioned these in elaborating on Biden's remarks without mentioning the certain involvement of the homegrown international terrorist organisation, the CIA) or a nuclear strike by Iran.

    This video was posted in the economy forum but needs to be seen here as well since it is about how bad things are going to get in America:

    From world-class trend forecaster Celente's video above, his comments about Obama and the evolving geopolitical situation generally:

    G.C.: People are... desperate and they are fearful. And they’ll hang on to anything. Let’s look at the facts. A man of change, who did he bring into Washington? You know they say by their deeds you shall know them. Let’s look at his Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geithner, former Robert Rubin from the Clinton administration, the former president of the New York Federal Reserve Bank. Change? How about Larry Summers, the former Clinton Secretary of Treasury? I mean, I’ve been around a long time. I never remember a newly elected president bringing in basically the national security team from the last administration who happen to be from another party.

    RT: Do you not think Obama’s different in any way?

    G.C.: By their deeds you shall know them! If I bring in a baseball hitter that strikes out every time and I want him to play in the World Series is he going to hit the ball over the fence? They brought in Larry Summers, Timothy Geithner. Look at the crew. Look who they are. They’re strike out artists, every one of them. The only thing that they know how to do is not to get their finger nails dirty.

    RT: There was a sentence in your report, the Trends Journal, that really caught my attention. You wrote: ‘On 9/11, those who listened to the authorities and returned to their offices went down with the towers.’ So are you saying that Americans should not be listening to the officials who are saying the Stimulus Plans are going to make everything better? Is that the analogy?

    G.C.: Read my lips. No new taxes. I didn’t have sex with that woman, Monica Lewinski. I smoked but I didn’t inhale. Saddam Hussein has weapons of mass destruction and ties to Al-Qaeda. Why would anybody believe these people?

    RT: So what are Americans supposed to do if they’re not supposed to trust their leaders?

    G.C.: Personally, I buy gold. And I’ve been talking about gold since the Trends Journal 2001. We peg the bottom and we said it would start going up at 275. Number two, you don’t spend a dime you don’t need to spend.

    RT: What about geopolitics, what trends are we going to see in terms of the relationships between the United States and the rest of the world?

    G.C.: Well the rest of the world is very hopeful, using the word ‘hope’, with the Obama administration. And again, we’re going to have to see what transpires, but so far, and again, by their deeds you shall know them.

    Obama, when he first started to run, he was going to be out of Iraq. As soon as he became president he was going to start bringing soldiers home. Now they won’t be out for 16 months and now their reports say they’re going to bring upwards of 40,000 more troops to Afghanistan. He was also talking about preventive strikes in Pakistan. So it really doesn’t look like it’s going to be much of a smoothing of geopolitical relations.

    The one factor we’re looking at, at a time that could only be the worst time for it to happen, is what’s going on in the Middle East, in the Israel-Gaza war. Israel, as they said, they were trying to do as the reports have come out, if they attack Iran at any level, it will begin World War Three. Because if this war spreads beyond Gaza, it’s going to inflame the Middle East. It can cause an oil crisis as we saw in 1973, that’s what ended the Arab-Israeli war when they embargoed oil going into the U.S. That’s our major concern. We’re also seeing, and we’re going to wonder, if Obama continues with putting the so-called missile defense shield in Poland and in Czech Republic in Eastern Europe and if they keep pushing more and more into Georgia. If that keeps happening we’re going to see a reignition of the Cold War.

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]Although I don't believe the author of this particular piece is fully familiar with the broader trans-party agenda, he still has plenty of interesting observations to make about the king of change's style of governance, such as the following:[/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]A Commissar style of governance[/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]Vladimir Lenin pioneered a double-layered style of control by Soviet Party Commissars. Every government official and military officer was doubled by a Party Commissar, who wielded the real power. The result was wild swings between radicalization and stagnation in the USSR. Nobody could act without worrying about the local Commissars, who owed their real allegiances to the Kremlin. Obama is using a similar strategy by [COLOR=#0033cc]directing Samantha Power[/COLOR] to go wherever new SecState Hillary Clinton goes. [/SIZE][/FONT]

    [SIZE=3][FONT=times new roman,times]Those two ladies hate each other, even before Power called Hillary "a monster" during the primaries. Power will report on Hillary to the White House. The Obamas are introducing a parallel staff for the major departments in the White House, to keep a jealous eye on its own appointees. The Clintons did this with the Justice Department, where Jamie Gorelick was the real power at Justice, and Janet Reno became the PR front. We know about the results in a suicidal anti-terror policy, the cynical return of the little refugee boy Elian Gonzalez to the Castro tyranny, and the Waco massacre. [/FONT][/SIZE]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]A Government-Media fusion[/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]Karl Marx told his followers "First, conquer the Organs of Propaganda." In Marx's Germany there was no free press. Britain was one of the few examples of relative freedom in Europe, which is why Marx ended up being a foreign correspondent in London, as a ferocious public enemy of capitalism and elected governments. [/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]Last week we found out that Rahm Emmanuel, George Stephanopoulos, James Carville and Paul Begala [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]have been carrying on [COLOR=#0033cc]daily, hour-long conference calls[/COLOR] for the last 17 years, even while they were hopping from one top job to another in the White House, ABC News, and various liberal political campaigns. If you think all the big media sound oddly similar, we now now why. [/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]A lockstep alliance between government and the big media is a marker of radical Leftist rulers. Putin just had a couple of more journalists murdered in Moscow. That is not likely to happen here, but then, it wont be necessary. The big media are already PR flacks for the Left. Well, just to make that relationship of buyer and bought explicit, a Boston Globe journalist has just [COLOR=#0033cc]proposed[/COLOR] a special Federal bailout for newsies who have utterly [COLOR=#0033cc]destroyed their own audiences[/COLOR]. [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]Somewhere in Hell Jozef Goebbels is smiling. [/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]Appointing openly corrupt officials [/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]Obama's no-lobbyist rule is now a public joke. [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]Confessed tax cheaters were propopsed for top positions, like Tom Daschle and Timothy Geithner.[/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3] Big lobbyist power couples in Washington are being drawn in, including the [COLOR=#0033cc]Daschles[/COLOR]. And of course we have the endless Congressional show of Democrat corruption by [COLOR=#0033cc]Charlie Rangel[/COLOR], Chris Dodd and far too [COLOR=#0033cc]many others[/COLOR].[/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]The appointment of radical Greenies to positions like the "Science Czar" -- a huge self-contradiction -- are sending very bad signals to the giant Federal research establishment. [/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]Moving against conservative media[/SIZE][/FONT]

    [FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]Immediately after the election, Fox News and Washington Times reporters were thrown off the Obama campaign plane. Obama's [COLOR=#0033cc]first television interview[/COLOR] just took place with terror-supporting Al-Arabiya TV, an Islamist riff on CNN. [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times][SIZE=3]A Republican FCC member has warned that a disguised censorship rule giving local leftist groups additional "community input" into radio license renewals may become law [COLOR=#0033cc]by administrative fiat[/COLOR].

    Thanks for posting that Colonel.

    When these things happen- and they won't be confined to America- those who do not now believe will remember that they had been warned many times. Because severe hardship is coming to all of us and time not spent preparing for this is time squandered.

    But at any time we can call out to Christ and He will save us.

    Emerging global elite to use new global media to educate ‘global citizens’

    The following is based on a report by Cliff Kincaid, Accuracy in Media.

    Elite members of the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in Davos, Switzerland, recently considered a proposal for a new global television network to usher in a state of “global governance.” The concept strikes some as authoritarian, even totalitarian. But the parent company of Fox News was one of the sponsors of this year’s gathering. ShareThis

    The media proposal, which was included in “The Global Agenda 2009” report, is to create “a new global network” with “the capacity to connect the world, bridging cultures and peoples, and telling us who we are and what we mean to each other.” Several prominent U.S. media figures signed on to the alarming and controversial proposal.

    Totalitarian? Noooooo. We all know that that the power elite have our best interests at heart. They're there to serve us.
