AMERICA'S DARK SIDE IS HILLARY'S CROSS OF IRON


 










A leaked Hillary Clinton email confirms that the Obama administration, with Hillary at the helm,  orchestrated a civil war in Syria to benefit Israel.  See story ~ https://www.transcend.org/tms/2016/08/clinton-email-we-must-destroy-syria-for-israel/

 

America's Cross of Iron speech was immortalized by President Eisenhower in 1953 as well as his farewell address to the nation in 1961 and he correctly predicted that with the accelerated rise of the Military/Industrial complex ~ mankind would eventually be hanging on a cross of Iron. That speech brought into focus  America's dark side military/Industrial/ Congressional complex as well as the stark reality of the election of a proven and committed War president in 2016 as well as the ominous realization that we have now firmly come face to face with the dark side of our consciousness: Allen L Roland, PhD   

 

There is no coming to consciousness without pain. People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own Soul. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.”   Carl Jung

 

It was 1957/58 when I became a naval aviator and by 1961 I was an integral part of America's military/Industrial complex as an all-weather Interceptor fighter pilot stationed on the USS Ranger patrolling the South China Sea.

 



By 1962, when I left active duty and became a weekend warrior, I was beginning to question our military posture with the advent of the Vietnam War and most certainly after Kennedy's assassination in 1963.

I began to feel a new appreciation for Eisenhower's words of peace as well  as his forbidding warning in 1953.

By 1970 the country had seemingly lost hope and its moral bearings with the loss of key political and spiritual leaders ~ JFK assassinated in 1963,

RFK assassinated in June, 1968 and MLK assassinated in August, 1968

 

Richard Nixon was sworn in as president in January 1970 but the country had never fully recovered from the loss of JFK, RFK and Martin Luther King, Jr ~ we were in a state of moral apathy and perfect fodder for Nixon and Kissinger to manipulate our collective fears by bombing Cambodia and then Nixon increased domestic spying.

 

The rest is history, with successive Presidents but also an ever expanding Military/Industrial/Congressional complex ~  so now let's fast forward to the Obama years and in particular Hillary's role as secretary of State regarding the bombing of Libya and the fate of Gaddafi ;


'Alter Egos' Dissects Hillary Clinton's Tenure As Obama's Secretary Of State

April 25, 2016 1:31 PM ET

Heard on Fresh Air



Mark Landler of The New York Times discusses Clinton and Obama's contrasting views on America's role in the world. Clinton, Landler says, was often the hawk, more willing to intervene with force.

GROSS: This is FRESH AIR. I'm Terry Gross. Let's get back to the interview FRESH AIR contributor Dave Davies recorded with Mark Landler, author of the new book "Alter Egos: Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama And The Twilight Struggle Over American Power." Landler covered Clinton when she was President Obama's secretary of state and Landler was covering the State Department for The New York Times. Landler is now a White House correspondent for The Times.

DAVIES: As you read the book, you realize what tough decisions these people faced, one of them being whether to intervene in Libya militarily against Moammar Gadhafi's forces when they were moving against the opposition in that country following the Arab Spring. Take us through that debate. How did these players state their cases?

LANDLER: Well, this was a very good illustration of the kind of role that Hillary Clinton could play in some of these great debates over war and peace. Again, as I said earlier, she was traveling around Europe during this period hearing from the Europeans, hearing from Arabs, neighbors of Libya of how bad the situation was and the risks killing of real atrocities in Benghazi. Gadhafi had promised to hunt down the rebels house by house like rats. So that was the kind of backdrop, and that was the message that Clinton was getting.


Back in Washington, President Obama was characteristically reluctant. He didn't view Libya as a core strategic interest of the United States in the way, perhaps, that France and Britain did in Europe. And he was backed up, in this case, by his defense secretary, by Bob Gates who also didn't view it as enough of a reason to get involved in yet another war in the Middle East.


But Hillary Clinton made a very strong case. She wasn't alone in making that case. Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the U.N. made that case as did Samantha Power, who at that time was an NSC official who thought a lot about human rights issues. And so he was - he the president - was being faced by these fervent proponents of a military intervention to avert this genocide in Benghazi.


But it was really Hillary Clinton who carried the day who made the most persuasive case dialing into a White House meeting from Europe where she had just met with one of the heads of the rebel government who told her how bad things were, and also she was able to cobble together support from enough Arab countries that she felt that the U.S. had enough legitimacy to take part in this mission.


And so this was a critical moment where she really, I think, carried the day over Gates and others, and then in turn set the stage for a military intervention that has, of course, had an extremely bloody aftermath with lots of misgivings and second-guessing on President Obama's part, and one that's even shadowed her into her current election campaign - lots of questions asked about whether Libya was worth it, was it mishandled, did the U.S. not go in afterwards the way we should have? So these are all questions that played out of that fateful decision.

DAVIES: Yeah, you know, the president's maxim, don't do stupid stuff, partly reflected, you know, his view of the Iraq War where the United States went in without a plan for what would happen once Saddam Hussein was deposed.

In Libya, there was no plan for the United States to move in with much of anything, right? And Obama was clearly concerned about that. What happened after Gadhafi fell?

LANDLER: Well, this in effect, Obama was trying to learn the lessons of past interventions, you know, both positive and negative. During the Clinton years, the U.S. waited a long time before intervening in Srebrenica, and there was a terrible slaughter there.

In Iraq, the U.S. intervened full force, went in and really occupied the country with all the mayhem that played out there. So in a way, the president was trying to learn these lessons and get intervention right, intervene to avert a slaughter, a mass killing but not send in tens of thousands of troops or American advisers, not attempt to rebuild the nation of Libya.


The problem was by not doing that, there was an enormous security vacuum in Libya when Gadhafi finally fell and lots of militias some with ties to al-Qaida or ISIS basically swept into that vacuum and turned Libya into, you know, a very lethal place, a place that's really awash in guns and feuding militias and fighting.

And so as the president has looked back on this experience, I think he views it very much as kind of confirming all his worst suspicions. He told Bob Gates it was a 51 - 49 decision whether to do this, and he's been very frank in the aftermath that, you know, he regrets the way it played out."

                   *                  *

And here is War Hawk Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton laughing and stating "We came, We saw and He died" when former Libya head of State Muammar Ghaddafi was brutally assassinated which is certainly not compassionate or presidential and most unsettling to our dictator friends and most certainly Clinton foundation donors ~ see video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtH7iv4ip1U


THE ISRAEL CONNECTION AND CLINTON ALLEGIANCE


Sean Adl-Tabatabai / Your News Wire – TRANSCEND Media Service reports on August 8, 2016 ~ that  the new recent Wikileaks release shows the then Secretary of State ordering a war in Syria in order to overthrow the government and oust President Assad, claiming it was the “best way to help Israel”.



"The document was one of many unclassified by the US Department of State under case number F-2014-20439, Doc No. C05794498, following the uproar over Clinton’s private email server kept at her house while she served as Secretary of State from 2009 to 2013.

Although the Wikileaks transcript dates the email as December 31, 2000, this is an error on their part, as the contents of the email (in particular the reference to May 2012 talks between Iran and the west over its nuclear program in Istanbul) show that the email was in fact sent on December 31, 2012.

The email makes it clear that it has been US policy from the very beginning to violently overthrow the Syrian government ~ and specifically to do this because it is in Israel’s interests."  See Transcend article ~ https://www.transcend.org/tms/2016/08/clinton-email-we-must-destroy-syria-for-israel/

 


And speaking of the Clinton Foundation ~ with help from Jonathan Turley and Doug Childers.


"The Clinton Foundation has been the subject of long-standing allegations of questionable donations and reporting. It is also viewed by many critics as a massive shadow campaign structure that employed aides and funded Clinton trips

However, the most serious allegation was a type of pay-to-play scheme where foreign and domestic donors gave money in the hopes of currying favor or gaining access to the State Department.

Now, Judicial Watch has released dozens of emails that were deleted improperly by the Clinton staff, but contain non-personal communications.

Among the recovered emails are communications showing interventions for donors at the State Department, including one on behalf of a convicted money launderer. The relative lack of coverage on both the proof of the improper deletion of such emails and the pay-for-play concerns is astonishing ~ and magnify concerns that mainstream media has been giving such controversies minimal coverage."

See Turley article ~  https://jonathanturley.org/2016/08/11/recovered-emails-show-clinton-foundation-officials-intervening-for-donors-and-aides-with-state-department/
















James Grimaldi, Pulitzer Winning Journalist (WSJ)  gives a detailed report to Democracy Today and Amy Goodman on the obvious conflicts of interest with the Clintons and Clinton Foundation ~ many while Hillary was Secretary of State.  See Video Report ~ http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/37217-did-companies-and-countries-buy-state-deptartment-access-by-donating-to-clinton-foundation



With the help of Doug Childers regarding the spiritual meaning of these developments  ~ I’ve only done a cursory reading of articles on the Clinton Foundation, but I’m not as informed as I could be. But the list I’ve gotten from sources I respect is that the Foundation is a criminal money-making, money-laundering, bribery based organization posing as a humanitarian operation ~ but, for all intent and purposes, it appears to be another highly visible slow speed chase by the Feds.

 

I did read about how the Clintons went into Haiti and made a fortune under the pretense of doing service, of which they did very little. And I know about Hillary helping the Haiti government negotiate a poverty minimum wage of thirty something cents an hour instead of the sixty-something cents an hour representatives of the Haitian people were trying to get. And I’ve been reading and hearing lately that the Clinton Foundation connections have infiltrated into every branch and aspect of the U.S. government and other governments as well.

 

The upshot being that no one dares to go after them because if they go down they’ll take much of the government with them. You probably know that the head of the FBI who declined to charge Hillary for the email fiasco was a board member, I think, for the Clinton Foundation or some branch of it.

 

So my understanding is that the Clinton Foundation is an unparalleled phenomena in all the above respects, a kind of vast parasitic organization feeding off of the total corrupt system we currently have. The revelations of this past year have been truly astounding ~ particularly by WikiLeaks ~ I’ve never seen anything like it.

 

But my spiritual sense is that it is the necessary revelation of the shadow that precedes a collective awakening that has to happen for things to change. As such, Donald Trump is a false flag distraction to humor, feed and distract the public and Main Stream press as well as  protect the Clinton foundation from close scrutiny.

 

As Andy Borowitz satirically writes in the New Yorker : "Clarifying his position on a key national-security issue, Donald Trump said on Friday that as President he would be willing to use nuclear weapons, ' but meant it only in a sarcastic way.'"

 

In that sense, Trump is not a threat and should not be taken seriously but should be seen only as a distraction, perhaps encouraged by the Clintons themselves ~ and it will become obvious, as Maureen Dowd explains today in the New York Times, that the GOP already has the perfect candidate for President;

"All these woebegone Republicans whining that they can’t rally behind their flawed candidate is crazy. The G.O.P. angst, the gnashing and wailing and searching for last-minute substitutes and exit strategies, is getting old.

They already have a 1-percenter who will be totally fine in the Oval Office, someone they can trust to help Wall Street, boost the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, cuddle with hedge funds, secure the trade deals beloved by corporate America, seek guidance from Henry Kissinger and hawk it up ~  unleashing hell on Syria and heaven knows where else.

The Republicans have their candidate: It’s Hillary."
           

You know Jung’s saying that enlightenment...is about making the darkness conscious"  ~ or more palatable and it's obvious the Clintons have made the darkness more than obvious with their deceptive track record, fabrications and Clinton Foundation.

 

It appears that everyone in political power has their price and can be marginalized such as the recent silencing of Bernie Sanders by the Clinton Machine and his subsequent purchasing of a $600,000 vacation home on Lake Champaign ~ after endorsing Hillary for President ~ connect the dots and realize we are sinking fast in a moral toilet.

 

As the collective awareness of all that has been and continues to be revealed, including our dark side, a shift in the collective psyche of America is occurring that will be decisive ~ and a new consciousness will eventually fuel a dynamic activism that can eventually topple the global corporate/military state that has been running things from behind a closed curtain for decades.

 

That curtain is slowly opening but unfortunately we may have to live with the dark side of Hillary's cross of iron ~ much as you must embrace fear to transcend it ~ before we can truly embrace the light at the end of that dark tunnel as well as our place in a Unified Field of love and soul consciousness that lies not only beyond time and space but also beneath our deepest fears ~ and whose principle property is the universal urge to unite which we continue to ignore at our collective peril.

 

There are other clear strident voices which must be heard before November 4th and hopefully that includes the Green Party's Jill Stein whose progressive voice must be heard at the upcoming Presidential debates ~ see www.Jill2016.com

 

But before the dawn of a new age must come the darkness of apathy and despair ~ for we are all now unfortunately hanging from and bearing the consequences of the Bush, Obama and now Clinton cross of Iron. And for all intent and purposes, there is only one party ~ The War party.

 

 

"The day will come when, after mastering the ether, the winds, the tides, gravity, we shall master the energies of love, for God. And then, for the second time in the history of the world, man will have made fire his servant."  Teilhard de Chardin, The Evolution of Chasity (unpublished)

THE GREENING OF AMERICA / IT'S FINAL ACT IS APPROACHING



























The Greening of America is a 1970 book by Charles A. Reich. It is a paean to the counterculture of the 1960s and its values. Excerpts first appeared as an essay in the September 26, 1970 issue of The New Yorker. The book was originally published by Random House.

 

In 1970, Charles Reich wrote The Greening Of America, a book that profoundly influenced and inspired me at 36 year's old, for Reich predicted a revolution of the individual and culture that would be a revolution of the new generation against the corporate state ~ and it would change the political structure as its final act. I believe it's final act is fast approaching and this revolution will not require violence to succeed ~ it will only require great courage and a legitimate anti-war movement which will fully expose the folly of our present fear based and militarized world economy: Allen L Roland, PhD

 



It was 1970 and the country had seemingly lost hope with the loss of its political and spiritual leaders ~

 

JFK assassinated in 1963

RFK assassinated in June, 1968

MLK assassinated in August, 1968

 


Richard Nixon was sworn in as president in January 1970 but the country had never fully recovered from the loss of JFK, RFK and Martin Luther King, Jr ~ we were in a state of moral apathy and perfect fodder for Nixon and Kissinger to manipulate our collective fears by bombing Cambodia and then Nixon increased domestic spying.

 

I, like many Americans sensed the country's moral vacuum, and personally was more than ready for another choice versus buying and selling stocks as an Investment Banker. Our country had surrendered to the dark side, the military-Industrial complex was in full control and Nixon's paranoia was already becoming evident. We had lost our soul bearings and a collective alarm for light workers was sounded ~ Charles Reich's The Greening of America was part of that call.



 


I heard the inner call in 1971, read Reich's book, opened my heart in relationship and fell into a rabbit hole of soul consciousness beneath my deepest fears and unworthiness and also realized that I had a part to play in this Revolution of both the individual and culture. My task was to completely surrender to love, begin to see through different eyes and share what I saw through both my writings and transformative work with individuals as a heart centered therapist.

 

My PhD dissertation in 1998 was the Unified Field where I demonstrated that the basic underlying and uniting force of the universe is a psychic energy field of love and soul consciousness (The Unified Field) which lies not only beyond time and space but also beneath our deepest fears and whose principle property is the universal urge to unite.

 

 

I have had many personal experiences of the sensory sensation of being in the Unified Field of love and soul consciousness that exists not only beyond time and space but also beneath our deepest fears but this one clearly stands out ~ for it was a matter of life and death and it became the foundation of my belief in this state of consciousness that lies beneath our deepest fears.

 

I call it the Final Option which I experienced as a Navy carrier pilot in 1961, on the South China Sea, and where I faced, totally surrendered to and went through my deepest crushing fear of the unknown ~ and broke through to an all knowing and fearless state of soul consciousness that existed not only beyond time and space but obviously deepest within myself.  













 

My whole life has been a journey, a quest, to find a lost little boy within myself who once knew, and longed to share the truths that I am now sharing with you; a 4 year old boy who profoundly experienced at the deepest level within himself, a love and joy that indelibly connected him to everything around him. That experience was my first awareness of a Unified Field of love and soul consciousness which I was an integral part of ~ and I fully surrendered to the bliss of being in that Field of love and soul consciousness and never forgot it.  See VT Article ~ http://www.veteranstoday.com/2016/01/18/on-turning-82-and-owning-a-great-truth/

 

 

Just as becoming a Navy Fighter pilot was an important part of my destiny and brought me to the San Francisco Bay area ~ my precognitive vision of the Golden Gate Bridge was a door that was opened to me as a young child and not only let the future in but proved to me that this state of love and soul consciousness not only existed beyond time and space but was also the sole constant of the universe. See VT article ~  http://www.veteranstoday.com/2015/12/26/walking-into-my-precognitive-vision-of-the-golden-gate-bridge/

 

Which brings me to our current social revolution in 2016 which has revealed  an anti-war movement against the corporate state, initiated by Bernie Sanders and carried on by Jill Stein and the Green Party which will hopefully eventually grind to a halt the gears of war and enlist millions of our youth in its implementation.

 

We have once again reached a state of choice less Apathy, similar to what we felt in 1970, but now it's time to implement the final act of this revolution particularly with two such unpopular candidates running for President in 2016 ~ the time for true change is in the air.

 

Let's summarize the The Danger of a Clinton or Trump Presidency in a recent Real News interview of Col. Lawrence Wilkerson with Paul Jay as they discuss Hillary Clinton's militarist track record and Donald Trump's bellicose political theatre rhetoric. 25 Minute video ~ http://therealnews.com/t2/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=31&Itemid=74&jumival=16919

 

Excerpts from this must see interview;

"Trumps principle purpose is to destroy the Republican Party and he is succeeding " ~ Wilkerson on Trump

"I don't think Trump really wants the job and his agenda is Israel first and America second " ~ Wilkerson on Trump

 
"The war instrument is the first instrument of choice with Hillary versus Diplomacy and that bothers me"  ~ Wilkerson on Clinton

"Her foreign policy is straight out of the neocon playbook where the war option is foremost ~ she's a war president " ~ Wilkerson on Clinton

"Mike Pense is a scary proposition and many of his positions scare  the bejesus out of me " ~ Wilkerson on Mike Pense

 

 

Paul Fay's last comment of interview ~ " Whoever wins the election, there better be a massive anti-war movement already in place " ~ to which I add we are already in the process of accomplishing this with Jill Stein and the Green Party but we desperately need her progressive voice in the upcoming Presidential debates.


There is a revolution coming. It will not be like revolutions of the past. It will originate with the individual and with culture . . Charles A. Reich

 

My good friend and fellow columnist Doug Childers perhaps offers the most insightful comment regarding our current presidential  election ~ which I am reprinting in full;

 

"Right on Allen!  
I don’t grudge Bernie for stepping out. I don’t know what happened behind the scenes, but he raised political consciousness in this country to an unprecedented level and started a political revolution I never thought I’d see here. Those who paid attention just witnessed a corporate coup in the democratic primary. The oligarchy, operating through the DNC and corporate media, and colluding with the Clinton campaign, stole an election, defrauded the American people of their rightful democratic process, and is intent on installing Hillary, their corrupt hopeful successor to their current servant Barak Obama. (I voted for him the first time and learned a new level of discernment.)

 

Now this united corporate system is using Donald Trump as a bogeyman scare-card to frighten people into going along with the the program, and millions are becoming unwitting accomplices to the theft of their own democracy, imagining they are preventing the rise of a new fascist state.

They don’t realize that what we now have, hidden behind the facade of democracy, and what Hillary will further empower, just as Obama has, is worse than anything Trump could accomplish.

The media, and now their frightened citizen cheerleaders and apologists for Hillary, wants to convince us that our only choice is between an inflated narcissist desperate for attention, and a calculating sociopath committed to handing more control over the world to the corporate military state.

If people were willing to face this ugly reality and realize the real choice we face is to either vote our conscience or betray it we would begin to actually become a real democracy and a people worthy of it.

I’ve been posting a quote from time to time that you’ve probably once heard, from Edward R. Murrow: “A nation of sheep will in time breed a government of wolves.”

And that’s how we got where we are.

Keep up the good work!"

Doug

 

 

In short, Charles Reich's The Greening of America in 1970 predicted a social revolution unlike any others in our past, originating from individuals, such as myself and others, as well as all classes and cultures.

 

This revolution will indeed begin to change the political structure in 2016 by challenging the corporate state ~ and the new generation propelling this change, as dramatically demonstrated by the Sanders campaign, are the Millennials who are now carrying the glowing Olympic torch of true political change as represented by Black Lives Matter and the populist, anti-war theme of the Green Party's Jill Stein.

 

And ironically in 2016, the rich and poor classes and corporate states have gathered, as we are now currently witnessing at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro ~ while looming high above is the ultimate social revolutionist Christ the Redeemer, created by Polish-French sculptor Paul Landowski  in 1931.

 

98 Feet tall and standing 2300 feet above the city and the Olympic stadium, its sandstone hands outstretched and seemingly imploring us to Love one another but in a far different tone ~ for now it adds, with the advent of the nuclear age as well as the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, Love one another or you perish.






 




And it is Teilhard de Chardin, the Jesuit priest, paleontologist and explorer of the soul, whose life's work was the reinterpretation of Christianity in the light of evolution, as well as my mentor from beyond time and space ~ who also stands impatiently at the summit of man's quest for the ultimate truth proclaiming to all that god is love.

 

As a fellow social revolutionist and explorer of the soul my evolutionary task has been to demonstrate through my work and writing that this love is indeed the long sought for Unified Field ~ a state of love and soul consciousness that lies not only beyond time and space but also beneath our deepest fears and whose principle property is the universal urge to unite.

 

This is the ultimate inner revolution and spiritual greening of America and it is already underway.

 

"Therefore, despite all checks and improbabilities, we are inevitably approaching a new age, in which the world will throw off its chains and at last give itself up to the power of its inner affinities.

Either we must doubt the value of everything around us, or we must utterly believe in the possibility, and I should add, in the inevitable consequences of universal love."  Teilhard de Chardin

 

We are all in a sense Hibakushas (Moral survivors of the August,1945 Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki )
