Monitoring America

[edwest2]

I believe it contains truth you will never read in your morning paper, which needs to be discerned and separated from the obvious propaganda and tomfoolery.

Wishing everyone on CAF a very Blessed Christmas and an increased trust in the Lord in the coming New Year!

I don’t think it does, unless that truth already existed in printed form. The internet has and will continue to falsify important things. That is part of its purpose.

Peace,
Ed

Anybody use the internet?

From bunkers in Texas, military pilots use images from Predator drones in Afghanistan to watch, in real time, bad guys setting bombs in roads, and requesting orders to take them out.

The National Security Agency has a bunch of satellites parked in orbit just waiting for phone calls from bad guys talking about their next terrorist mission.

The National Reconnaissance Office is processing lots of satellite images hoping to catch missile tests by rogue states, transfers of illiegal cargoes and other activity that may help warn against terrorist attacks against the United States and our allies.

So unless you’re a criminal, or terrorist, you should have no worries. The FBI won’t be pounding on your door in the middle of the night to confiscate your porn, but possibly, your dope.

Peace,
Ed

Hi, ed,

Have you forgotten the recent assignment of the CIA to a domestic situation? The CIA is for foreign intelligence gathering, the FBI for domestic, according to how our Constitution was read in the '70’s. That was in my day, too.

God loves all of you.
May all of you and all of your loved ones enjoy a blessed and Merry Christmas.

The history of the intelligence community is complicated and some of it is only coming to light today. The FBI had a Special Intelligence Service that operated in foreign countries during World War II. (The Origins of FBI Counterintelligence by Raymond J. Batvinis)

Richard Bissell of the CIA coordinated with American aircraft companies to develop surveillance capabilities. He literally decided what direction things would go.

The CIA was not authorized to create an army but it did.

It would be helpful to hear some suggestions about what can be done to prevent or stop abuses.

Peace,

Hi, ed,

The only thing I can think of, in addition to prayer, is to write to and make phone calls to our Congress people in both Chambers.

The Patriot Act was drafted in 1995. Interesting fact I thought you might want to know.

The powerful in both parties are not to be trusted.

Beware if and when the Pax Americana becomes effective. All the world was at peace under the Pax Romana when the First Advent happened.

THese are the people we’re talking about foxnews.com/politics/2009/03/23/fusion-centers-expand-criteria-identify-militia-members/ I’d say they’re more dangerous to Constitutional liberties than Al-Qaeda.

I agree. The MIAC report identified which Americans should be viewed as potential terrorists. There were a dozen different categories and let’s not forget that Napolitano singled out **veterans **and **pro-lifers **as being at the top of that watch list. It’s the “right-wing extremists” they wish to monitor, not the threat from the Middle East, which sadly, one day will probably accomplish something similar to another 9/11. It just makes no sense that they are not concerned with border protection, yet would monitor their own citizens so carefully. Why can’t we realize that Mao, Stalin and Hitler did the same thing?

'Tis so.

God is allowing us to wallow in the filth we have made for ourselves-to teach us a lesson.

Our Loving Father will then call His children back to Himself. We will be “paddled.”

In other words, eventually, He will say: Enough!

God Bless you.
+Peace On Earth, Good Will Toward Men.
Love, Dawn

PS I believe sin has taken such a hold-we can no longer turn ourselves back to Him-He will have to turn us around.

Watch.

And, Pray.

Yep…EXACTLY you are spot on. We are too far gone, and HE will step in to change things. But it ain’t gonna be pretty.

In the Gospel of Matthew, either chapter 24 or 25, Jesus tells his disciples that it will be worse than anything before their day. That includes the plagues of Egypt, which were terrible. Check it out in the beginning chapters of the book of Exodus.
