The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
For the dawn of 2012, here are three items I'm calling the Good, the Bad and
the Ugly:
The GOOD:
A boost for this new year comes thru Meher Baba's discourse THE NEW
HUMANITY:
The opening paragraph states:
"As in all great critical periods of human history, humanity is now going
through the agonizing travail of spiritual rebirth. Great forces of
destruction are afoot and seem to be dominant at the moment, but
constructive and creative forces which will redeem humanity are also being
released through several channels. Although the working of these forces of
light is chiefly silent, they are eventually bound to bring about those
transformations which will make the further spiritual advance of humanity
safe and steady. It is all a part of the divine plan, which is to give to
the hungry and weary world a fresh dispensation of the eternal and only
Truth."
The BAD:
In Nineteen Eighty Four, George Orwell has the Inner Party commissar O¹Brien
explain to the book¹s anti-hero Winston Smith, ³The German Nazis and the
Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never
had the courage to recognize their own motives. We are not like that. We
know that no-one seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power
is not a means, it is an end. We are not interested in the good of others;
we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or
happiness: only power, pure power.²
The End of America as We Know It: Obama Signs NDAA Indefinite Detention Bill
The Intel Hub
December 31, 2011
On the eve of 2012, President Obama has, with the stroke of a pen, ended
America as we know it.
With the National Defense Authorization Act now signed into law, American
citizens can and possibly will be indefinitely detained by the military if
they have been ³accused² of any terrorist related activity.
In a press release
published today, the ACLU further outlined their opposition
to this unconstitutional law and highlighted the fact that Obama will now be
known as the president who signed indefinite detention of Americans, far
from any battlefield, into law.
³President Obama¹s action today is a blight on his legacy because he will
forever be known as the president who signed indefinite detention without
charge or trial into law,² said Anthony D. Romero, ACLU executive director.
³The statute is particularly dangerous because it has no temporal or
geographic limitations, and can be used by this and future presidents to
militarily detain people captured far from any battlefield. The ACLU will
fight worldwide detention authority wherever we can, be it in court, in
Congress, or internationally.²
******
³We are incredibly disappointed that President Obama signed this new law even
though his administration had already claimed overly broad detention authority
in court,² said Romero. ³Any hope that the Obama administration would roll
back the constitutional excesses of George Bush in the war on terror was
extinguished today.
Although the president and the corporate controlled media have tried to
pretend that he only signed the bill because Congress took out the
indefinite detention provision, the fact remains that this bill DOES give
the government the ability to detain any American they claim to be a
terrorist without so much as a trial.
Obama¹s claim that he had reservations about certain provisions also rings
hollow considering the fact that the White House actually asked for the
indefinite detention provision to be added to the bill in the first place!

As we all celebrate the new year we must reflect back on 2011 and realize
that it is absolutely imperative that we speak out and expose these police
state measures like never before.
If we do not, this country will continue on its path towards destruction and
before the end of 2012 we could find ourselves in a full scale police state
that has completely outlawed the alternative media and free, outside the box
thinking.
