Past Dots Below the Line; Basics on Revolution At the End
Phi Beta Iota: As we contemplate the all too real likelihood that Leon Panetta lied to the President of the United States of America on behalf of the military-industrial complex, the urgency of effecting a Strategic Analytic Model capable of creating and assuring truth–creating public intelligence in the public interest–has never been greater. This is the single non-violent common sense means of restoring balance and harmony–creating a prosperous world at peace. If there is one individual who could, should, and does represent integrity in Washington, D.C., that person is LtGen Dr. Brent Scowcroft, USAF (Ret). He's hung his head over not challenging Dick Cheney, now is the time for him to step up to the plate and sponsor a joint endeavor between the Program for National Security Reform (PNSR) led by Hon. Jim Locher and Adm Dennis Blair, USN (Ret); and the Woodrow Wilson Center led by Director Jane Harman and under the larger rubric of the Carnegie Endowment for Peace led by President Jessica Tuchman Matthews. At this unique moment in time, five people named above have the power to get America–and the world–back on track. A short overview of the possibilities has been posted as reference online (second item below).

Pieczenik, a man who held numerous different influential positions under three different Presidents and still works with the Defense Department, shockingly told The Alex Jones Show yesterday that Osama Bin Laden died in 2001 and that he was prepared to testify in front of a grand jury how a top general told him directly that 9/11 was a false flag inside job.

Washington, NY and Shanksville mark Bin Laden death
Phi Beta Iota: As we published just prior to the official announcement, this entire matter is “high theater.” We sincerely hope that the tsunami of informed public skepticism buries not just the unethical individuals trying to put this over on the public, but the entire two-party tyranny that serves as a front for neo-fascism in what was once America the Beautiful.

Phi Beta Iota: There are no challenges that cannot be addressed with a combination of collective intelligence and individual integrity. Infinite free energy, and the eradication of waste across all industries, are immediately achievable if (big if) the public will reengage in its own governance.
