Today could be the day we save the free Internet.

The US Congress was poised to pass a law allowing the US to censor access to any website around the world. But after we delivered our 1.25 million strong petition to the White House, it came out against the bill and with public pressure at boiling point even some bill backers are switching sides. Now, the Wikipedia-led blackout protest has rocketed the public campaign to the top of the news.

We are turning the tide. But the dark forces of censorship are trying to revive the bill right now. Let’s bury it for good today. Click to sign this emergency petition to save the Internet now and if you’ve signed already, to email, call, Facebook, and tweet Congressional and corporate targets. Then send this to everyone:

The bill would make the US one of the worst Internet censors in the world — joining the ranks of countries like China and Iran. The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and PROTECT IP Act (PIPA) would allow the US government to block any of us from accessing sites like YouTube, Google, or Facebook.

We got the White House to switch sides and now our global campaign and the growing public pressure is forcing Congress to abandon the bill. Last weekend Senator Cardin, who cosponsored the legislation, announced he will vote against it! Then six prominent Republicans penned a letter requesting that the bill be shelved. Now the lower house vote is reportedly on ice.

Just days ago we were told it was impossible to stop the corporate censorship cabal, but now this is at a tipping point and amazingly we could win! Let’s stop the dark forces of censorship today. Sign this emergency petition to save the internet now and forward it to everyone:

This US legislation could infringe on all of our freedoms. But if we win, we will show that when people unite with one voice from all over the world we can stop the abuse of power anywhere. We have brought this bill back from the brink. Now, if we amplify our voices today, we can put an end to the most powerful Internet censorship threat that the world has ever seen.

With hope,

Dalia, Ian, Alice, Ricken, Diego, David, and the Avaaz Team

NOW… for the superfluous commentary – If you are one of those that would smirk and judge me for the above words then just step aside, lead your own life, allow me to lead mine and allow others to lead theirs, you can choose to read this, or not, if you wish!

NOW, I know some of you are not going to do that because you are going to attempt to take issue with the energy of this that I am writing. The message to you is – this is not meant for you, go into your silent space if you can face it and work your own stuff out.And by the way I hope you realize quickly that what you think goes on in your own head is not private at all… It affects the whole world and beyond… But that is for another post.

2012 is critical. I do not like that word but what other word describes the vibration of time in which we are in? Everyone is feeling this vibration in one form or another, most often not verbalized. Underlying this vibration is the Soul’s recognition of joyful outcome; not only in the ‘future’ but NOW, but it keeps getting overtaken by a dense feeling of being smothered.

Observe and see this smothering for what it is and it will lift simply by the power of your conscious recognition. Don’t fall into the trap of being told to think that this feeling is unusual and there’s something peculiarly wrong with you. The challenge is to prevent the outer conditioning from hindering the Soul’s recognition of this joyful present outcome. Many forces are at work out there to keep you from your own inner joy but when you go into your own silence they have no power over you and you will see clearly. When in this space ASK for protection. this is most important.

Don’t worry about the outside world and don’t take too much on. The biggest mistake we can all make is to think all Souls around us have the same level of understanding. They don’t. I had an example tonight where I simply said to a very nice guy “It’s a bit of a mess in Iran”. He immediatly went into one about how “Oh yeah that lot have always been the same through history, causing us problems and responsible for terrorism etc…”… So easy to get caught up in the age old polarities!! These old polarities have the potential of leading us into the third world war.

I didn’t tell him I had just watched a video of the results of NATO attrocities on the Lybian people, so who can preach about terrorism? It makes me cry sometimes but that is the disparity of awareness we have to endure. Maybe this is the answer to the age old question?… Why does God allow catastrophes? Perhaps they are allowed as a final sanction in order to wake up the deepest sleepers? There is nothing like tragedy and so called ‘Death’ to bring us back to the singularity of silence and pure awarenes….. And by the way we must remember we have stuff we need to awaken from too.. otherwise we wouldn’t have to be here right now. Our own attachment to GLAMOUR can be a hindrance.

Ahhgh.. On a more down to earth level I twisted my neck yesterday afternoon and it bloody hurts!!

If there’s just one thing I would like to share here it is to say put aside all sense of fear and worry. Surrender to the guiding forces which are ever present – and their voices can always be heard within the present moment.

In that present moment is found true peace no matter what occurs on the outside. Our challenge is to cut out the noise of the world and our own minds which would if it could nudge us out of hearing what the present moment has to offer.

Love and blessings to One and All!

Anyway, right now I send my best wishes to One and All for Christmas 2011, and I pray that 2012 will bring forth massive blessings for us all.

I was amazed at this contrast on one page – The illusion being peddled on the right alongside an illustration of the truth of what western society has come to.

Much is in the air anyway regarding planetary alignments and all manner of other things but I’m keeping this to one point:-

Many people are now sensing that something is afoot which you can’t quite put your finger on. There is good reason for this, not least of all because we are being lied to by media sources we have maybe trusted for much of our lives. If you doubt this claim of mine read on whilst thinking about what they have told you about Libya for one! Just read this account and decide for yourselves whilst feeling within.

Quote by Cynthia McKinney – “I left the house sick in my heart. As I was about to depart, the neighbor begged me, asked me over and over again, why had this happened? What had they done to deserve this? He seemed to not want me to leave”…. READ ON…..

I reported a dispatch made by Cynthia a few days ago and I am following it up with this report now.

My previous report about Cynthia McKinney’s tour of Tripoli, Libya can be read here

SHE IS ONE HECK OF A COURAGEOUS LADY, SEND HER YOUR PRAYERS AND BLESSINGS!

I am going to keep this post very short whilst including one more  bit of information about Cynthia so you know who she is : –

Cynthia Ann McKinney (born March 17, 1955) is a former US Congresswoman and a member of the Green Party since 2007. As a member of the Democratic Party, she served six terms as a member of the United States House of Representatives.  -( Wkipedia)

Cynthia Mckinney is on location in Tripoli, Libya and has given an amazing in depth account of what is happening there but have we heard about it in our mainstream news? NO….. (In 1918 US Senator Hiram Warren Johnson is purported to have said: The first casualty when war comes is truth.)

Cynthia McKinney’s latest report:-

http://www.infowars.com/anatomy-of-a-murder-how-nato-killed-qaddafi-family-members/comment-page-1/#comment-2529516

Here are some excerpts:-

“I spoke with a neighbor who described how three separate smart bombs hit the home and exploded, another one not exploding. According to the BBC, the NATO military operations chief stated that a “command and control center” had been hit. That is a lie. As anyone who visits the home can see, this home had nothing to do with NATO’s war. The strike against this home had everything to do with NATO adopting a policy of targeted assassination and extra-judicial killing — clearly illegal.”

PLEASE HAVE THE COURAGE TO READ THIS!…….

“The Buddha not only taught non-violence and peace, but he even went to the field of battle itself and intervened personally, and prevented war, as in the case of the dispute between the Sakyas and the Koliyas, who were prepared to fight over the question of the waters of the Rohini. And his words once prevented King Ajatasattu from attacking the kingdom of the Vajjis. …

… Here is a lesson for the world today. The ruler of an empire publicly turning his back on war and violence and embraced the message of peace and non-violence. There is no historical evidence to show that any neighboring king took advantage of Asoka’s piety to attack him militarily, or that there was any revolt or rebellion within his empire during his lifetime. On the contrary there was peace throughout the land, and even countries outside his empire seem to have accepted his benign leadership. …”

I love you all….. And in addition I love you Cynthia for what you are doing in such a courageos manner! God Bless!

More anon!

A chap named Oska Pyrka recently made a post on the Facebook site Report A Crop Circle Formation which I felt was of significance to write about.  The link Oskar Pyrka gave is here with the comment “Bit of world war 3 conditioning starting in console gaming.” The title is:

“Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 3 (OFFICIAL TRAILER 2011) Coming In November of 2011″

How wonderful that we have well paid and well suited creative individuals producing this stuff! I feel so honoured to be a human being at this time in history and to see such riches at the ready to export to populations around the world who are desperate to receive “democracy” at the point of a depleted Uranium Missile! Oh what joy for us all both sides of it all!

If you haven’t seen it yet you’ve got to see this as a thinking and feeling human Soul! This is the latest crap being pumped out by the computer gaming world and their expectation is that our youngsters will pay their pennies to enjoy it..(enjoy?), and get conditioned to what the overlords have planned in the process of exporting our form of democracy, and if anyone refuses they get blown up or shot!

I pray that youngsters have more sense and see through the BS! ( I just took a break from writing this and looked into the eyes of two 9 month old twin children. I can’t offer any words to describe that – no words are needed!)

Now – onto dealing with this rubbish. Anyone with a sense of awareness cannot fail to see how deliberate it is the way they have put the pilots into slow motion in true Hollywood style, attempting to portray some form of glamour in firing leaden projectiles, often laced with depleted Uranium at other human bodies made of soft flesh and bone. (Cool image right)

The people who outsourse the writing of the code for the software on offer at a vastly inflated price (They don’t do it themselves – they get people in third world countries to do it for worthless sheckles!); and the people who produce such film scripts are really not interested in the effect their thought form creations will have on our children. As long as they can continue to sit in wine bars talking crap with other unconcious individuals, with the main subject being how many millions are in the account or how many BA Club Class flights around the world they can afford each year, they are not neccesarily happy, but they think they have some reason for being… whatever that is??.

In the big scheme of things I am sure they are there for a reason, and I think that reason is something we can all benefit from in our eternal development. We are all in a very deep learning ground right now and we must learn from everything which happens around us.

This begs the question – Haven’t they learned anything from Vietnam???…….. Not least of all the backlash which will come upon them (And us unless we wake up!)  in the pursuit of the same old etc etc.. but also the consideration of the innocents who get caught up in the process?

Re the picture – Get over the Tom Cruise glamour mate, behind that tree might be something which will leave your bones and sinews strewn all over the tree to your left! Why are you there?

Anyway, as many of us sense we are not entering a time of great change, we are in the midst of such times which are accelerating fast!

The beautiful twin children I mentioned earlier are now growing up in in this world reality, a reality in which I hope they will have to see less and less of this crap I am talking about here. If the crap is to be lessened it’s up to us now. Just see it, do not be afraid to acknowledge it, and by the act of acknowledging it with awareness actually contributes to the assistance of it’s falling away.

The more people become aware, the more we can hope for a better future without this kind of madness. Since reality is created from the way we think, we all need to choose thought forms which would be desirable in a reality in which we would like our children to live.

I love the image to the right which was on the ‘scumbags’ trailer because yes, destiny calls to all of us but not for their reasons. Our destiny is one of love and recognition that we are one.

When we  meet another human being, whether they are English, American, French, Japanese, Chinese, Afghani, Iraqi, Iranian, Jewish, etc etc. we are of the same substance, spiritual and physical. We are meeting ourselves. That is the great secret which is not a secret at all!

Producers of the crap will not understand this, and will not be willing to do so in the imagined comfort zone of their wine bars and BA Club Flights. I feel compassion for them because they have no idea of what is………..

There are many other ebooks of wisdom on this guy’s site: http://www.asamanthinketh.net/

Such support it seems is being pumped out with bravado from a comfort zone, within which individuals think they will never have to experience the earth shattering bang of a bomb, or shrapnel tearing through their bedrooms in the middle of the night, hopefully missing their children. There is so much which can be written from the mind on this subject. I suggest just looking within for how it feels.

Well here I would like to draw attention to a report just published – an on the spot report in Tripoli by ex Congress Woman Cynthia Mckinney. Just read this fine woman’s first hand account of what she is seeing, hearing and smelling on the other end of NATO’s bombardments.

Information about Cynthia McKinney – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cynthia_McKinney

From Cynthia – “Women carrying young children ran out of the hotel. Others ran to wash the dust from their eyes. With sirens blaring, emergency vehicles made their way to the scene of the attack. Car alarms, set off by the repeated blasts, could be heard underneath the defiant chants of the people.”

“Whatever the military objectives of the attack (and I and many others question the military value of these attacks) the fact remains the air attack was launched a major city packed with hundreds of thousands of civilians.”
