The Wolf Who Cried "Terrorist."

2008 is, of course, the eighth and final year of George W Bush's presidency. Blogs, bumpers and calendars everywhere are counting down to 1/20/09, his last day in office. Stand up comics are continuing to crack jokes about George Bush being the Armageddon president, believing that he will step down from office soon, ending their chances to use the rich comedic material he has always provided as president. Many popular musicians have recently taken to singing about how we are on the brink of the end of the world. This century so far has been a non-stop roller-coaster of wars, terrorist violence, and natural disasters. However, despite the various warnings and signs from society and nature, many Americans have become tolerant of the horror, desensitized to suffering, and are comparably much more comfortable, absorbed and secure in our daily lives than we were during the terrifying years that spanned between 9-11-01 and the invasion of Iraq in 2003. It helps that these days we are no longer stalked by color-coded terror warnings, anthrax-by-mail, the threat of sniper attacks while gassing up our cars, or a believable nightmare about middle-eastern weapons of mass destruction destroying our suburbs.

Needless to say, the Bush administration is still using the fear card on us, and the rest of the world, but unfortunately for their clout and potency we're no longer listening to them. More an more countries around the world are uniting against the American empire and their agenda as time goes on. Also, feeling safer from six and a half years free of major terrorist attacks, the American public has become much more critical of our government and much more opposed to the wars we're still engaged in. Despite the recent spike in America of natural disasters and random shooting sprees, many people rest assured that this nation won't suffer another attack like 9-11-01 during this next year. People hold this view not because our borders are safer, or because the perpetrators of the original crime have been brought to justice- but because for the past six and a half years we have been told that the next terrorist attack on American soil is right around the corner, which is something that simply hasn't happened.

If you think about it, the actions of the Bush administration throughout the entirety of this "War on Terror"demonstrate a perfect example of Aesop's fable: "The Boy who cried Wolf". This is the story of a mischievous shepherd boy (president Bush) who gets into the bad habit of scaring and stirring up the people living in his village (American citizens, and people of the world) by shouting occasionally that a wolf (terrorist) is coming to attack and devour his herd (America). For the first few times this boy succeeds in fooling and manipulating the villagers (the coalition of the willing) into action through his bogus warnings, but after awhile, the villagers get wise to his ways, and conclude that he's just a no-good liar. They stop heeding his calls and cries of "wolf" (Iran). Of course, it's when the villagers have become unresponsive to warnings that a real wolf attacks and scatters the lying little shepherd boy's herd. (Our present terror immunity leading up to the false flag "attack" I believe will come before the next election)

The story shows that fear can be a motivating force through empty threats ,for a time. This truth has been demonstrated to us throughout the brief history of the deceptively titled war against terror. George W Bush has been proven to be a liar, that much is common knowledge. But because so many of us don't bother to investigate the depths of his lies, we dismiss him as nothing more than a harmless, foolish shepherd boy. Through our dismissal, and George Bush's brilliant use of foolishness, his true nature remains concealed. For in this version of Aesop's fable we have a wolf disguised as a boy, who has been crying "wolf", and is poised to devour the sheep.

What gives me the right to say that? For starters, what has happened between 9-11-01 and the present day has been a systematic transformation of Government from Constitutional democracy to legalized dictatorship, by means of bills such as the USA PATRIOT Act, Eminent Domain, and the Military Commissions Act. In political terms, our nation and our constitution have suffered a long and continuous series of debilitating attacks during this period of supposed peace. All of the various steps in this process have been reported, and then buried. And even as the fear button is continuously pushed on the one hand by the Bush administration, the lack of attacks is highlighted as a success story on the other. But the truth is that they are fulfilling the prophet Jeremiah's words concerning false prophets, "They shall say 'peace, peace' when there is no peace". For there is no peace at home, and there is certainly nothing we could call peace abroad. Fresh, innocent blood is daily poured on our hands and we think we're innocent of it by putting the matter out of our minds? How foolish and selfish can we be?

In our willful ignorance, our irresponsibility and our pride, we have granted these false prophets immunity from accountability for their lies. Indeed, rather than demand to know what's been cooking under our feet, thanks to media guidance, the trend in 2008 is for citizens to look forward in hope at the promise of change. It is undeniable that we are taking the easy way out by doing this. The standard of justice, and the integrity of the office of president (which Bush continually pledged to restore in his 2000 campaign) have been ruined. Impeachment would be difficult, because investigations and hearings throughout the process would force us to witness the ugliness we have silently consented to, and chosen to ignore so far. Impeachment to me is analogous to repentance. It would be a complete and immediate change in direction, an admission to personal error and misguidance on behalf of this entire nation, and a willing pursuit of truth and justice. It is because we have chosen not to repent, but to "wait it out" that we will probably suffer greatly at the hand of the unjust, when we least expect it.

1 Thess 5:2b-3

The day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night. For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.

2 Thess 2:9-12

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

If ever there was a time for the hammer to fall on an unsuspecting populace, this is it. Should a false flag operation or "terrorist attack" cause this year's presidential election to be canceled, the official media spin will probably be that it was an act of vengeance by "the terrorists" against president Bush, to show that despite his concentration of power, vulnerability still exists. Bush would point back to congress' recent rejection of his bogus Big Brother bill, the "Protect America Act", as the reason the attack was allowed, even with the overly-funded Department of Homeland Security supposedly keeping watch. Bush doesn't take blame, in case you haven't noticed. A side-effect of such an attack would, of course, be the declaration of martial law and the establishment of an American empire under George W Bush, who after all said on several occasions, "a dictatorship would be a heckova lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator".

The final reason I believe that Bush is a "wolf-disguised-as-a-boy-crying-wolf" is that in my research I have come to fully believe that 9-11-01 was an inside job, carried out by the shadow government and neo-conservative wolves (including president Bush), for the purpose of justifying the previously planned transformation of government and invasion of the middle east that we have been witnessing. 2008 is, for me and millions of other "truthers", a year of great suspense for that very reason. But yet again, to those who are not paying attention, it's a year defined by hopes of peace and safety under the prospect of new leadership. We only have a certain amount of time before we all know whether the media and the masses are right, or whether the 9-11 "conspiracy nuts" and online prophets like myself are right. But that is no reason for any believer in Christ to simply sit back and wait to see the truth.

1 Thess 5:4-6

(For) you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day(of the Lord) should overtake you as a thief. You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.
