On December 15, the People’s Republic of China commenced a series of press releases on “Uygur Terrorism” in which they “publicly” and for the “first time” identified Uygur organisations and individuals that they claim to be terrorists.

The Uygur are a Turkic/Muslim ethnic group numbering some 7 million who live mainly in the economically and strategically important north western border region known as Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

A Caucasian race and speaking the Turkic language the Uygur have long harbored sentiments of independence and there were several isolated incidences of violence perpetrated in the 1990s by individuals or small groups claiming to represent this cause. More realistically today the Uygur generally seek nothing more than greater autonomy and cultural integrity within the PRC

The Chinese have repeatedly claimed that there existed several well organised and active “separatist/ terrorist” organisations whose objective were for the Uygur to gain independence from China and the establishment of the state of East Turkestan.

They have attributed some 400 terrorist acts to these groups which they claim have resulted in 200 deaths and 400 injured to these groups since 1990.

On the basis of this “organised” and “ongoing” terrorist activity the PRC has very heavily cracked down on any form of dissent, rights of association, free speech and religious freedom. Amnesty International, among other groups and commentators, has claimed numerous incidence of unlawful detention, prison sentences and even executions in the name of the “War on Terrorism”.

It is also claimed, by some who are knowledgeable in the “Uygur Question”, that like some other states in Central Asia and elsewhere, China have used the events of “9/11″ and the subsequent “War on Terrorism” to mask ongoing and premeditated attacks on this ethnic group. By bringing their policies concerning the Uygur under the banner of The “War” they have been successful in achieving their objectives without international scrutiny, and further, in fact, the likes of the US have turned a “blind eye” to these activities as a trade off for Chinese support.

Among the organisations listed in these series of press releases was the “East Turkestan Islamic Movement” a little known group who had been listed in 2002 as an internationally recognised terrorist organisation by the UN as a result of lobbying by China and supported by the United States.

The press releases claimed the leader of this so called terrorist group was one Hassan Mahsun an Uygur living in exile who, it was further claimed, had strong ties to Al Qaida and had masterminded, among other things, several bomb attacks within China. These claims had been refuted by Mahsun in several prior interviews.

These were the events of December 15 2003.

On December 23 2003 it was reported by the BBC that Mahsun was killed in October 2003 by Pakistani soldiers in a raid on a suspected Al Qaida hideout in South Waziristan, Pakistan. It was further reported that the Chinese Government were involved in making positive identification of the body through DNA testing.

On the same day the Chinese newspaper Xinhua ran a similar story. Later that day Xinhua edited out all links to the story claiming it had been withdrawn because of it’s “sensitive nature”. (Yahoo News)
How then does the PRC release fairly significant press statements identifying the virtual “Bin Laden” of Uygur terrorists groups when they supposedly actively participated in his bodies identification in October? Why was the Xinhua article cut?

It would seem that these events give strong credence to the arguments that the PRC is waging a calculated and pre-meditated campaign against the Uygur. At the very least it raises some very serious questions.

How could this happen? Perhaps because the press release was written well in advance and set for release at a particular opportune time?

Does the cutting of the Xinhua article prove that the PRC recognises it’s fairly significant mistake?

Does the fact that this mistake was allowed to occur prove that the case for the existence of Uygur terrorism argued by the PRC is not taken seriously enough, even by them, to the point that the death of China’s “Bin Laden” is of so little consequence?

These questions raise very serious doubts about the Chinese claims as to the existence of Uygur terrorist groups and in doing so suggests that the Chinese “War on Terorism” is in fact a war on the Uygur and their human rights.

It also casts serious doubts on the US’s and other countries’ foreign policy towards China ( and other countries for that matter) in respect of human rights violations in the name of the “War on Terrorism”.

In pursuit of the objectives embodied in the “War on Terrorism” are we “throwing the baby out with the bath water”?

So, do you want to be a newbie forever? Or do you want to make some money online?

So much of the Internet is about Information. Every single day people search for quality information on every topic under the sun.

If you want to be a provider of information and perhaps make a living at it, do you really need to buy one more eBook that claims it will reveal a SECRET about Internet Marketing? Let me be perfectly clear — there are no secrets — there is only good-old-fashioned business principles. The same principles apply whether you are working online or offline. But if you’re new to making a living online, there are specific ways or “secrets” to you, that must be implemented to be successful.

If you are a “newbie” and you think a “list” is something you carry with you to the grocery store, then it’s time to get educated. You must learn and implement “the right system” or you will fail.

The internet is no different than the offline world. You create & sell a product or service with quality. You provide your customers with information they want and need — not what you think will sell. You then market to that specific audience for your product. You build a “relationship” with your customers. You service them like crazy!

However, unlike the offline world, the potential for major sales and profits can happen quickly, if you set everything up the right way. You must sell quality products. You must automate. You must have a list. You must centralize the control of your “system.” You must … if you don’t you will fail! Did you know that something like 95% of the newbies who try to make a living online fail?

Why do they fail? There are millions of reasons. Some are looking to “get rich quick” and don’t really want to work very hard. Or perhaps it’s “information overload” that does them in … Warning — if you are an “information junkie” you are in the most danger of failing. Why? Because you will spend all your time “collecting” rather than “doing” … buying every eBook ever written about how to do this and how to do that and every self-proclaimed “guru” is going to sell you everything they can. Not a pretty picture.

Here’s something critical you really need to know. Are you ready? There are typically four ways you can make money on the internet, discounting all the MLM and “scam” business opportunities out there.

1. Sell other peoples products as an affiliate.
2. Create “content” websites that bring you income through Google Ad Words.
3. Buy/Create and sell your own information products, software etc.
4. Provide a service i.e. design cover graphics, design websites, programming etc.

That’s the major one’s. Secret for success … pick one of these and FOCUS on it until you succeed. If you don’t focus you will not succeed.

As a writer and graphic/book designer, making a living developing Information products is, for me, as natural as breathing. However, this way of making a living is NOT for everyone. Creating “quality” products is hard work and it takes time to learn.

Unfortunately, the Internet is filled with a lot of garbage info products … i.e. a 6 page eBook that lists the wonders of using vinegar to clean things that someone is actually expecting you to pay $10 of your hard earned cash to read.

If you want to learn how to develop and sell your own eBooks, you have a choice. You can slap together that 6 page eBook and try to sell it for $10 — but beware, if you decide to take that route you will fail!

Or you can do it the right way.

There is a right way, and there is a wrong way to develop information products. The world does not need another newbie trying to make a fast buck by putting together or buying resell rights to crappy eBooks that no one wants.

Info Product Development is not for the lazy or quick buck artist. Producing quality takes time and effort. However, the rewards are great and the potential to live the “Internet Lifestyle” with no bosses, no traffic jams and no daily grind is tremendous.

You can succeed. Just don’t plan for it to happen over night. If that is what you are looking for, then go buy a lottery ticket. On the other hand, if you want to do it right and succeed — then get educated, get focused, find what you really want to do and where your talents lie — and then, just do it!

The Animal Rights Summit
By David Leonhardt

Is it just me, or is society becoming increasingly polarized? It seems like for every action there is an equaller and oppositer reaction. For and against war. For or against the environment. For or against the family.

Consider the role animals play in society. No, I am not referring to politicians, TV producers or Janet Jackson. I mean animals like rabbits and mice and bears.

Some people will even lay down their lives for animals, protesting against the use of animals in laboratory experiments. They stridently oppose the testing of chemicals and makeup on innocent rabbits and mice. I suspect they would secretly rather the chemicals and cosmetics be tested on certain humans instead.

Meanwhile, another large contingent of society has no interest in testing makeup on animals, because they would much rather shoot them. I mean the animals, not the animal rights protestors. On second thought, they might want to shoot the protestors, too.

I thought about this great divide when I looked at the label of a new “powerful” anti-dandruff shampoo we just bought - an oil-based shampoo that works by letting it sink into the hair for at least three minutes. The instruction manual, in 13 languages, features an impressive array of alerts with threatening symbols, even warning me not to let the shampoo get into my eyes.

I stopped. I blinked (for effect). Here is a chemical I am supposed to pour all over my head and let soak in for at least three minutes. A chemical that will run down my face and across my eyes. A chemical that will surely make my eyes blind…or worse.

Then I read a tiny inscription at the bottom: “Not tested on animals”. Thank goodness, I thought. I wouldn’t want them to go blind!

I decided to try to bridge the gulf between the animal rights movement and the sport-hunter movement by convening a world summit.

I chose to invite a few animals, including Big Bear, a veteran of several hunting seasons. I also invited the Three Blind Mice, expert shampoo testers, I am told.

On the other side of the table, I invited Robin Gunn and his merry band of hunters.

“It’s not right,” began Big Bear. “that we animals should be the object of human torture. We have rights, too.” Robin Gunn snorted. His band of merry hunters snorted, too.

I decided to try a rapprochement. “You have to admit that most people would rather sacrifice a few laboratory rats than discover their children have gone blind.”

“Mice!” insisted Mouse #1.

“Pardon me,” I replied

“We are mice, not rats,” explained Mouse #2.

Robin Gunn snorted. His band of merry hunters snorted, too.

“I suspect most people would not care whether their cosmetics are tested on mice or rats or elephants, as long as they know the products are safe before they buy them,” I suggested helpfully.

“Great! Now our host wants to torture elephants , too,” Big Bear growled with an increasingly hungry look in his eyes. “Don’t you know they are an endangered species?”

It was at that point that I decided to bring in Plan B. “Brownies anyone?”

Robin Gunn snorted. His band of merry hunters snorted, too. But they ate the brownies.

I turned to Mr. Gunn. ‘”I understand the need to eat animals I said, with one eye on Big Bear, but doesn’t killing them for sport seem a bit much?”

“Why?” Mr. Gunn wanted to know.

“Well, it doesn’t seem like much of a sport when one team gets a high-powered shotgun, while the other never even knows there’s a game going on, does it?”

Big Bear growled. The mice growled, too. OK, so it was more like a high-pitched squeak, but it’s the thought that counts, right?

I tried another line of discussion. “What if you met with the animals to pick teams. Wouldn’t that be a little more fair?”

Robin Gunn looked at me like I was crazy. Big Bear looked at me like I was crazy.

It turns out that I was crazy. The summit ended in a dismal failure. Big Bear loved the brownies, but he wanted something more. The Three Blind Mice never even saw him coming.

And Mrs. Gunn is really enjoying her new bearskin rug.

Meanwhile, I don’t know what to do about my increasingly greasy hair. I suppose that sooner or later, I’ll have to use shampoo. In the meantime, I wonder…do you think ketchup will work?

Oxygen and terror. Rarely do sentences contain such oddities. Except they were written with blue pencils. But wait a moment. Few things have stimulated interest in this world as those strange bed fellows. Yet it appears that we have more mismatches these days than compatibles. (Like America and France in G-8.)

Now consider the similarity between oxygen and terror.

First, they have provided an endless field of study and research for the brains. A study of oxygen will take you to oxides, combustion, oxidation, acidation, respiration, and organic matter at elementary level; and climatology, mineralogy, metallurgy, oceanography, military warfare, sub-marine technology, and astronomy at advanced level. (Is there water in Pluto?)

When you begin a study of terror, you will need to know about bio-terrorism, nuclear terrorism, agro-terrorism, eco-terrorism, cyber-terrorism, chemical terrorism, and radiological terrorism. But this is a beginner’s class.

For dissertation, you have to find out the secret of making, deploying, and detonating a nuke; financing and movement of terrorist funds; decoding terrorist signals; how to plan and execute a successful attack; turning crude weapons to killer giants; identifying and catching a terrorist; how to fool security men; survival in caves and caverns; and the best way to stop terrorism. (Is it not by sacking sovereign states?)

The next common thing about them is their superabundance. Oxygen, the most abundant of all elements, gives life to all living things and combines with other elements to make life possible on this earth. No wonder it is called vital air. (Priestly who isolated it named it dephlogisticated air.)

Terror, however, is present in another way. It destroys all living and non-living things. (They call it the beast.) The contrast then is that while one dephlogisticatesrelieves inflammationthe other causes it. While oxygen means life, terror means death. Here the confluence and divergence between them end.

Because terror is now playing Bermuda Triangle (from Bermuda, a group of islands in the North Atlantic). It is said that any ship or airplane that passes by the deadly triangle disappears without trace.

But, today, airplanes and ships, and their human passengers, are vanishing in unsuspected spots, giving rise to the rumor that the triangle is shifting position with the rotation of the earth and the movement of the continental shelves. Already, twelve magnetic places around the world, including the North and the South Pole, are fingered as danger zones, so that none is safe anymore. You and your fishing boat can vanish for aye in the middle of your “innocent” country river.

Similarly, terror has been moving insidiouslyfrom the Middle-East to South East Asia, on to East Africa, then to America, and now in Western Europe. And each time it strikes, the cyclical pattern is apparentmultiple simultaneous attacks at the back of security men.

After 9/11, they did it again in the Queen’s kingdomGreat Britainfour separate attacks in London in the middle of G-8 meeting. And Scotland Yard anti-terrorist squadbeaten round and silly in their game at homewas, for once, consigned to a state of stupefactionand pupilage.

We are once more repeating the old patternrandom condemnation, and a pledge to pulverize al-Qaida to smithereens like atoms. Or like those finer particles from which the universe was made after the Big Bang.

In an article I wrote in 2004 titled, Intelligence Failure and the Next Armageddon, I had said:

“As you read this, intelligence officers are working at full trot briefing heads of states about the next move of terrorists and last minute plans to checkmate their move. But no one is asking the right questions: Why is the world in turmoil? Why do we need intelligence? Why would a virgin decide to bomb herself to death? What would make some people decide to end civilization by a chemical bomb? What can be done to bring lasting peace to the world?

“It is my belief that if we do not get the right answers to these questions, the world will not have peace. Terrorist attacks have continued unabateddefying intelligenceand will ever continue. (See what’s happening in Spain. NEXT STOP GREAT BRITAIN.)

“All lovers of peace would wish that the world leaders gave attention to the real causes of terrorism. Otherwise, we might wake up tomorrow and find the world on fire on the day of ‘Armageddon.’ Do not blame the innocent oxymoron, intelligence failure. For we are all to blame.” (Emphasis added.)

In his January 20, 2004 State of the Union address, George Bush said: “We are tracking al-Qaida around the world and nearly two-thirds of their known leaders have now been captured or killed. Thousands of very skilled and determined military personnel are on the manhunt, going after the remaining killers who hide in cities and cavesand, one by one, we will bring the terrorists to justice.”

I had then written an article with the title, The 24 Fallacies of George Bush’s State of the Union Address on Terrorism. In that article, I wrote:

“It is true that most of the key terrorist suspectsincluding Saddam Husseinhave either been arrested or eliminated. But according to Time Magazine, ‘Lopping off the beast’s head may not kill the body.’ If Saddam or Osama bin Laden are hanged today, more Saddams and Osamas will rise tomorrow. Terrorists want attention. And that is why various groups are eager to claim credit for any attackeven though they are not responsible. In like manner there may be a lord of the flies waiting for Saddam and Osama to pass on before taking center stage and bringing his pursuers to ‘justice.’”

I am beginning to think that we do not know who is pursuing whom. Neither do we know who the terrorists are. We have also no idea what is justice.

Like Macbeth, “who does murther Sleepe, the innocent Sleepe,” the terrorists and the world leaders have both murdered sleep, and we can’t sleep anymore. And instead of a merry-go-rounder in a fair ground, we now have an unwelcome visitor that has come to stay, playing unfair games on unannounced grounds. His scary nom de plume? Terror-go-rounder!

“The Blame Factor’ - Sabotage, but who’s to blame?

If you read the regular articles in newspapers and magazines you will be inundated with information about how much money is lost every year to business. There is a list, stress, alcohol, drugs, mismanagement, union issues and many more. If the figures are to be believed billions are lost every year because of these issues. It is a wonder we make any money in business at all.

So what is at the core of these issues? It is extremely simple it is something which has been with mankind since we first walked upon this earth. At the centre of all these issues is the ‘Blame Factor’.

Throughout history whether we were going to war, enslaving peoples or burning witches at the stake, it has been all to fulfil our base instinct to blame someone or something. Blaming others stops us having to look at our own shortcomings in life.

Are we evolving into a more civilised society as we move into the twenty first century, we are not. The powerful use of the media and advanced communication mean we are able to point the finger more readily and more often. Whether it be governments, businesses, health services, judiciary, our neighbours and a thousand more organisations and individuals, we can blame someone else. It is even becoming the basis of our television shows.

Does it matter?

Yes it does matter. When we blame, we sabotage our lives and that or our neighbours. We damage the infrastructure of our society and believe ourselves to be disempowered.

When we take responsibility for our lives and the issues and problems we face, then we can do something about changing things and travel towards personal and organisational empowerment.

It suits the people who wish to wield power over the individual to keep you in a weak position. As a ‘finger pointer’; you can be controlled and manipulated. Whether members of your government, business managers or in individuals in your own home they can control you by giving you someone to blame for the ills in your life (refugees, children, accounts dept, sales etc.).

So what are the effects of blame on the individual. Blame kills people, through stress, illness, depression and negative feeling it is a killer. When you hand your power away to others you are out of control.

Can we change?

The question is not, can we change; we can all change. The question is do we wish to change?

Anybody can give up a negative belief system such as blame, but only if they truly wish to. Some individuals and organisations will continue to wallow in self pity until it buries them.

They are a great many organisations willing to help those who are ready.

Any organisations which are ready for this change must make a conscious decision to involve everyone in the process. They must also fully understand what change will occur. This is the only way to see the massive benefits to both individuals and organisations.

Individuals may benefit through reading many or the quality book written on change and personal development, or personally experience change via the interactivity of live programmes or powerful internet based programmes.

Empowerment and enlightenment achieved through a good programme will deliver a multitude of positive and progressive benefits to the individual, organisation and society as a whole.

Are you ready?

Birth of a Nation:

When you see hooded Klansmen walking up Pennsylvania Avenue to meet their Grand Wizard Woodrow Wilson you are witnessing the true nature of the American people’s participation in a ghastly power play against people even in their own country. How could any woman trust a man who would be so callous towards blacks? The Klansmen were also freely using black women for their pleasure and taking any number of laws into their own hands. We have seen this with the Houses in Texas and we know Edward House is the real power behind President Woodrow Wilson as well as the top agent for the New World Order formation of a one world economy and spy network. That network included the slaving and drug business that Lafitte had managed for the Merovingians before he moved up the ladder and became the founder of Communism. Actually there never was real communism and Stalin and other Russian leaders have always answered to the same Rothschild/Rhodes interests. Boris Yeltsin said they did this to Russia and I know it is the old ‘play both ends against the middle’ game that keeps people like the Klansmen acting out their egos and fears. When Edward House was picking the board for The FED he was selecting the real governors of the world economy.

When Wilson said House was his ‘alter ego’ on many occasions, he was saying more than even he may have known. The fact that House was the seventh son of a seventh son is most relevant to the abuse of soulful sciences that these esoteric cabals have done for many millennia. It is even possible that House had ‘possession’ of Wilson to the extent that Wilson was a mere ‘alter’.

I hope I have provided enough on the spy network being involved in Russia for you to understand why when Russia became democratic nothing actually changed. Well, that’s not entirely true. The gold backing their currency disappeared and the few who had always controlled the assets now owned the assets. It is fitting that Texas is the erstwhile home of George II and that he speaks to God rather than listening to the other leaders of the world in his pre-emptive wars that don’t even require real factual evidence of the things he lies about. Despite the fingering of Prescott and George I that I have done regarding the assassination of JFK, despite the statement that George II doesn’t listen to other world leaders; I do not mean to suggest George II is in fact anything more than a paladin for the international financiers. He simply carried out the plan created by Kissinger Associates in league with his Neo-Con Jewish (Rothschild) cabinet and advisors just as most American Presidents have had to do. Bucky Fuller got it right when he said: “Nothing can be more pathetic than the role that has been played by the President of the United States, whose power is approximately zero. Nevertheless, the news media and most over-thirty-years-of-age U.S.A. citizens carry on as if the president had supreme power.”

My good friend Jim Marrs has this to add from his important book Rule by Secrecy.

“Trotsky stated, ‘I am going back to Russia to overthrow the provisional government and stop the war with Germany.’

When the ship carrying Trotsky and his entourage stopped in Halifax, Nova Scotia, they and their funds were impounded by Canadian authorities, who rightly feared that a revolution in Russia might free German troops to fight Allied soldiers on the Western Front.

But this well-grounded concern was overcome by President Wilson’s alter ego, Colonel House, who told the chief of British Secret Service, Sir William Wiseman, that Wilson wanted Trotsky released. ON April 21, 1917, less than a month after the United States entered the war, the British Admiralty ordered the release of Trotsky, who, armed with an American passport authorized by Woodrow Wilson, continued on his journey to Russia and history.” (6)

President Bush and Hurricane Katrina join forces to eliminate poor, black Democrats. The cowboy from Crawford lassoed the raging storm as he would an angry steer. Being the oppressive dictator that he is, Bush executes his sinister plot to exterminate the poor, black Democrats of the Gulf Coast.

This is the warped view of leading Democrats such as Howard Dean and Jesse Jackson. Excuse me for not using the title “Reverend”, but this poor excuse of a preacher deserves no more than the title “Village Idiot” (I’m forcing myself to be polite).

Howard Dean, known for his impressive vocal ability, said this week that race was a factor in the death toll from Hurricane Katrina.

“We must…come to terms with the ugly truth that skin color, age and economics played a deadly role in who survived and who did not.” Source: AP 09/07/05

If this ignorant stooge had even a hint of intelligence he would have said, “We must…come to terms with the ugly truth that wind, water and nature played a deadly role in who survived and who did not.”

Another factor that Dean has conveniently left out of the mix is the Democrat leadership of the state of Louisiana. The incompetent Mayor and irresponsible Governor along with their lack of leadership and common sense were responsible for countless unnecessary deaths.

My advise for you, Dean: Tone down the rhetoric! As a leader of your party, you have the responsibility to be the voice of the people not a megaphone for the extreme liberal organizations that are successfully hijacking your party. It is time to Move On and say, “No Moore!”

Preparing for his upcoming sermon entitled, “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor”, Jesse Jackson accused the Bush Administration of not acting faster to rescue the victims because they were black, poor and Democrat.

Your own words condemn you! You are not fit to stand behind the podium. Can you not taste the sewage seeping from your lips? How long will you continue to digest the maggot-infested garbage that the Liberals feed you? You are a hopeless cause, a casualty in the War of Politics!

Leave it to the Dean and Jackson comedy hour to exploit this tragedy for political gain. Your days are numbered and this petty charade will come to a screeching halt. Until then, these deranged lunatics masquerading as sympathetic leaders will continue to lead others down a path of utter destruction. This is just my opinion…

When I was a kid my father would always tell me that I was going to get into a fight with someone that was bigger and badder than me because I allowed people to “push my buttons.” He always told me that one day I was going to get pushed by the wrong guy. I’ve always suspected that my father was just “projecting” his perceived shortcomings on me, his impressionable son but recently the wisdom of his statement has become abundantly clear.

My father and I are very much alike because we share a common personality trait that allows our passions to mushroom into anger when provoked. I’ll be the first to admit that I do let people “push my buttons.” I do. However, I’ve recently realized that there are people in this world who feed off of people like me and are continually seeking to provoke this response. Some of these bottom feeders even go so far as to turn this perverse activity into a form of sport akin to fishing and they create very lucrative radio or television programs that show-off this type of behavior.

What makes them so good at what they do is that when this tactic is employed by people like me against them, they always turn it around or somehow deflect the blow, probably because they’ve mastered the technique so well it’s almost second nature. For example let’s say that you’re an overweight, draft-dodging pill-popper who has questions about your sexuality. How many career choices are there for depraved cowards like yourself? How about a sanctimonious radio program where you can sit atop a self-created throne and hurl down vitriol at often innocent, good-hearted, courageous, do-gooders?

Or even a television program where every week you can sit next to a weak-minded, unfortunately handsome know-nothing, where your audience can obviously see how much better looking and well spoken you are compared to your co-host. You can create an entire personality all your own from celluloid and a little make-up and those stylist can really mask the true nature of your depravity. Pretty soon people may forget that you don’t have the qualifications to pick-up garbage.

There I go again. It’s hard not letting people “push your buttons” but I’m going to turn over a new leaf. I will no longer take the bait. I will not be drawn into reacting to the petty musings of some mediocre mind. And I call on my liberal brethren to do the same. Don’t do it because of some high-minded purpose but rather do it for practical reasons. Don’t let them profit off of your reactions.

The next time some simpleton writes a book, makes a comment on his or her blog, radio or television program, ignore it. That means don’t discuss it, don’t allude to it, don’t link to it, don’t even mention it or them. PERIOD. Don’t do it. Shut them out, turn them off, don’t click on that link, boycott stupidity and I assure you we will win.

Do you know why I’m so certain that we will win? Because that is exactly what they do to you and they DO NOT have the truth on their side. They don’t even care about the truth, they only care about money and power and if you haven’t noticed they’re winning, big time.

So what can you do when a ding-a-ling from the dunderhead gallery is trying to bait you, you ask? Try to find the best words to convey to people how your thoughts can be something that they agree with. Imagine just how powerful it would be to frame a complex argument into a concise statement that jives with people’s way of seeing things. That’s what they do. Now imagine doing it with the truth. That’s real power.
