A RASTA IN THE WHITE HOUSE?

A RASTA IN THE WHITE HOUSE?
A BABYLON OBSERVER OBSERVATION



WWW, November 2008 - Millions of people celebrate on the streets as the first Black president of the USA is a fact. Will their hopes be fulfilled?

A checklist...

The first Black president of the USA is a fact. A fact to rejoice over, which is exactly what millions of people did when it became clear that Barack Obama had won the election.

Months earlier, Reggae singer Coco Tea released a tune with a video in which he expressed his support for Obama. Carrying the Red Gold and Green, he voiced the hopes of many for "change". A cynic would say, that Coco Tea almost presented Obama as a Rastaman.

A Rasta in the White House?

Of course, the first Black president of the USA is a fact and that is a thing which in itself is very important. However, the reason why this is important has to do directly with the fact that Babylon is a reality.

In his speech after it became known that he had won the election, Barak Obama referred to the days of slavery. He spoke about a long way from the slave plantation to the White House, even though he did not use these words.

Millions of people were taken from Afrika, to work as slaves in what was called the "New World". This was part of a process which started in ancient times and we have come to identify her as Mystery Babylon.

Does Obama deserve the support of those that know themselves to Chant Down Babylon? Will he remember that the White House was built by Black Slaves?

Let's make a short list of things he should do and not neglect, if that was the case. Let's see, if our joy can stay a little longer.

• Close Guantanamo Bay and all other Torture camps
• Reverse the Police State at home and Empire-building abroad
• Have those people arrested who committed torture and other crimes, including the politicians responsible
• Stop the "War on Drugs"

will Obama really make a "Change", as he promised? Will he at least try to reverse what has been done to the people of the world especially these last eight years during the Bush era?

It's November 2008...

Let's see...

OBAMA? CHANGE?

WWW, November 4 2008 - At the moment I write this, it is not yet known who will be selected to be the next president of the USA. By the time you will be reading this, you will probably know who the winner turned out to be.

Lots of people are totally in the ban of the current campaign by the two presidential candidates. Will this be the first black president of the USA, or will this be the first female vice-president of the USA?

Will Bush really go?

Well, it seems so. It seems, like we have all survived the last eight year in which the USA has seen the introduction of the police state, lies which costs millions of lifes, a stolen election and a president of whom it is said that he spent more money than all the president before him combined, leaving the country with an enormous debt.

He is also the most unpopular president of all times. Speeches he gave for the rich and wealthy would include lines like "some people call you the elite, I call you my base", while he made fun for the national press by showing a photo of himself looking under his desk, and "quoting" himself as saying "Those Weapons of Mass Destruction Got To Be Somewhere"...

Just before his term runs to an end, we get the financial crisis. Bush gives billions to the people he called "his base", while making fun of the people that believed his lies on the WMD's and sometimes even go so far to go to Iraq as a soldier and kill innocent people... or be killed.

Man, oh man.

What a situation.

And then, all of a sudden, there he is and he has a word.

"Change"

Will change really come?

There are Reggae singers who make songs for Obama. Millions of black people will cast their vote, many of them for the first time. They have their hope on a man of who I recently heard that he seems to be related to Dick Cheney.

He's got a who's who of the vampires that loot Jah creation behind him. Henry Kissinger, for example. A man who has to consult with his lawyer before he goes to another country since he can be arrested because of his many, many crimes. Or Colin Powell, the man who lied to the whole world and made the people believe that Saddam Hussein had Weapons of Mass Destruction.

His opponent, John McCain, is far behind in the polls. There are stories that the same people who gave George Bush his presidency, are now working for McCain. Indeed, the same stories we hear the last eight years start to be reported by the Dutch media now again.

When McCain get (s)elected, election fraud is proven.

But when Obama gets the job, will it bring that change?

Asking the question is (almost) answering it.

Obama is the media favorite, he's the elite's favorite, and when he brings change, this will not be for the good of the poor people. Maybe you can even say, that honest people would never be able to reach the position of being a presidential candidate anyway!

Additionally, there is only one way to know if Obama is really not the next guy that the elite pushes forward, and that is when he would be killed just like that other president who was so popular: JFK.

Today, I was thinking about these people who pray for either Obama or McCain to become president.

My prayer is a bit different.

I just prayed one word: "Maranatha".

Come, Lord Yesus, Come!

CAPITALISM VS THE ANTICHRIST?

CAPITALISM VS THE ANTICHRIST?
AN OBSERVATION BY MESSIAN DREAD



WWW, October 2008 - As the financial crisis reaches what is called the "real economy", many Americans have critique against their government who is practicing what they call "Socialism". This very same word can be used to summarize the critique against the recently released New Age movie "Zeitgeist II".

Capitalism versus Antichrist?

I was born in 1965, in Europe. Until I was about 25 years, I lived with the fact that about a couple of hundreds of kilometers away from me was something called "The Iron Curtain". This "Curtain" divided Europe in a western part that was functioning under what was called a "Capitalist" system, and an Eastern part which had "Communism".

When the Soviet Union fell and Germany re-united after the fall of the Berlin wall, it was said that Communism had been defeated and Capitalism had prevailed.

More than Europe, the USA were -and are until this day- a symbol for Capitalism. Many people in the USA even speak of Europe as living under a so-called "Socialist" system and they are not referring to the former Communist countries there. They are speaking about countries like the one I live in, the Netherlands. I can also understand why this is seen as such.

Socialism can best be described as an in-between form of Communism where everything belongs to the State and Capitalism where everything is in the hands of entrepreneurs who can make money.

As I wrote in the opening paragraph, when I check out the critique against the political measures concerning the financial crisis and when I check out the critique against the New Age movie Zeitgeist, I basically see the same critique. And in this critique, which can be summarized by saying the word "Socialism", I taste a kind of worship toward that other side of the paradigm, the one called "Capitalism", or often "Free Market Economy".

When I hear Alex Jones reviewing the movie Zeitgeist, I hear him hailing up competition, jealousy, greed, even scarcity. Where Alex Jones calls himself a Christian, he can hardly say that it is good for mankind that there is many people who do not have food because there must be some scarcity in order to create a "healthy free market". Or that it is okay with him that thousands and thousands of people die in his country because of "Free Market mechanisms in Healthcare".

My critique against the New Age Movie Zeitgeist would not be that they make propaganda for Socialism or Capitalism, but that they make propaganda for the Antichrist. And indeed, being born under a "Cold War Consciousness" where Communism was portrayed as the Antichrist System, to me it is not new that the Capitalist "Free Market" Economy was hailed up as Gods Own Answer against the Satanist Communists.

And I strongly disagree with this.

There is something very wrong about Capitalism, and I would call it as Satanic as the Communist or even the Socialist system, and much of that evil can be seen when you observe the current financial crisis.

A "Free Market", for example, makes sure that only the fittest of the fittest shall stand. Only when you have the character of an entrepreneur, who dares to take risks and has enough insight in trade, who has money too, will you like the Free Market.

That very same Free Market does not give this freedom to people who cannot go further than to make themselves available for work, so they can be hired, for money, by the entrepreneurs.

When I hear the American presidential candidate say to an employer that he can "live the American dream and do with his money what he thinks best for his employees", I wonder why that American dream would be that one can decide another one's life just like that.

People like me, who are handicapped and have not even a perspective for a paid job, are even worse of in a Free Market system. If I were to live under the Capitalist System such as in the USA for example, I would not be able to do what I do. I would have been dead, frankly.

I have to think about these things, when I hear the critique of Alex Jones and others to the New Age movie Zeitgeist. I have to think about these things, when I hear people praising the Free Market as if that is the Law of JAH Himself.

Is Socialism, like here in Europe, the answer?

Of course not.

The Answer will be given at the moment, that Bright Day, when Yesus Kristos comes to end Babylon, Capitalism, Socialism, Zeitgeist-ism, every ism.

And in this time, this become pretty well clear. Crisis here and there, the total bankruptcy of the Matrix that people believe to live in is scattered before our very eyes. Out of this Chaos, will come the New World Order, and that New World Order will be downstroyed by the Creator Himself.

Amen, and Sela.
