The number of Americans who do NOT want to know what’s going on in America and the world, including those who profess to be Christians, is truly astounding.
Why don’t they know? Why don’t they want to know? Because that knowledge will make them afraid.
Why are they afraid? Because they, including the Christians, don’t believe in Jesus Christ.
Yet Christians adamantly declare they DO believe in Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, their actions prove that is not true. Repeatedly, in the Bible, God tells us, “Be not afraid.” Repeatedly, the Bible tells us to “Watch and be ready.”

Just a few weeks ago, a Christian friend of mine who is quite well versed on what’s happening in this country asked me, “When do you think the U.S. Government will declare Martial Law?”
I was astonished. My reply was, “Look around you! Martial Law has already been declared. Do you think they’re going to tell you on the evening news? Do you think our government ever tells us the truth about anything?
What is the definition of “Martial Law”?
“The exercise of government and control by military authorities over the civilian population of a designated territory.
Martial law is an extreme measure used to control society during war or periods of civil unrest or chaos. Curiously, according to the Supreme Court, the term martial law carries no precise meaning (Duncan v. Kahamoku, 327 U.S. 304 66 S. Ct. 606, 90L. Ed. 688).
Generally, the institution of martial law contemplates some use of military force. To a varying extent, depending on the martial law order, government military personnel have the authority to make and enforce civil and criminal laws. Certain civil liberties may be suspended, such as the right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures, freedom of association, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of movement.
And the writ of Habeas Corpus may be suspended. This writ allows persons who are unlawfully imprisoned to gain freedom through a court proceeding.

Communism vs. Fabian Socialism
Since the collapse of Communism you can rest assured that they are now to be found amongst the Fabians.
The Fabians are well established in Australia and many are in the Labor party. All of Prime Minister Gough Whitlam's cabinet were Fabians and Prime Ministers Hawke and Keating also belonged to the Fabians.
But there was another movement coming to birth at about this same time that eventually gave competition to the hard-core Marxists. Some of the more erudite members of the wealthy and intellectual classes of England formed an organization to perpetuate the concept of collectivism but not exactly according to Marx. It was called the Fabian Society.
The name is significant, because it was in honor of Quintus Fabius Maximus Verrrucosus, the Roman general who, in the second century B.C., kept Hannibal at bay by wearing down his army with delaying tactics, endless maneuvering, and avoiding confrontation wherever possible. Unlike the Marxists who were in a hurry to come to power through direct confrontation with established governments, the Fabians were willing to take their time, to come to power without direct confrontation, working quietly and patiently from inside the target governments.
To emphasize this strategy, and to separate themselves from the Marxists, they adopted the turtle as their symbol. And their official shield portrays an image
of a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Those two images perfectly summarize their strategy. It is now 1884, and we find ourselves in Surrey, England observing a small group of these Fabians, sitting around a table in the stylish home of two of their more prominent members, Sydney and Beatrice Webb. The Webbs later would be known world wide as the founders of the London School of Economics. Their home eventually was donated to the Fabian Society and became its official headquarters.
Around the table are such well-known figures as George Bernard Shaw, Arnold Toynbee, H.G. Wells, and numerous others of similar caliber. By the way, the Fabian Society still exists, and many prominent people are members, not the least of which is England’s Ex Prime Minister, Tony Blair.
H.G. Wells wrote a book to serve as a guide showing how collectivism can be
embedded into society without arousing alarm or serious opposition. It was called The Open Conspiracy, and the plan was spelled out in minute detail. His fervor was intense. He said that the old religions of the world must give way to the new religion of collectivism. The new religion should be the state, he said, and the state should take charge of all human activity with, of course, elitists such as himself in control. On the very first page, he says: “This book states as plainly and clearly as possible the essential ideas of my life, the perspective of my world…. This is my religion. Here are my directive aims and the criteria of all I do.”
When he said that collectivism was his religion, he was serious. Like many
collectivists, he felt that traditional religion is a barrier to the acceptance of state power. It is a competitor for man’s loyalties. Collectivists see religion as a device by which the clerics keep the downtrodden masses content by offering a vision of something better in the next world. If your goal is to bring about change, contentment is not what you want. You want discontentment. That’s why Marx called religion the opiate of the masses. It gets in the way of revolutionary change. Wells said that collectivism should become the new opiate, that it
should become the vision for better things in the next world. The new order must be built on the concept that individuals are nothing compared to the long continuum of society, and that only by serving society do we become connected to eternity. He was very serious. H.G. Wells, The Open Conspiracy (New York: Doubleday, Doran and Co., 1928), p. viii
In short, Communists come in with tanks and forcefully take over the population, killing and imprisoning the dissidents.
Whereas Fabian Socialists infiltrate and slowly take over the government and its citizens.
Both groups are communists – with the same goal – to conquer a country and its people completely, instituting a communist, totalitarian government, and taking away all the people’s rights.
Their goals are the same – only their methods differ.
A perfect illustration of outright Communist take-over was the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia in 1913.
An excellent illustration of Fabian Socialism is what is happening in the U.S. today, as well as the UK, and Australia, and many other countries.

The 1993 Bombing
The explosion was caused by a 1500-pound urea-nitrate bomb, packed in a yellow Ford Econoline rental van, and detonated with a timer after the van had been parked in the basement parking garage. The explosion created a crater 200 feet by 100 feet wide and several stories deep. Evacuation of the twin towers began after the blast. Most of the injuries were due to smoke inhalation.
After the bombing, large improvements in the evacuation procedures for the Twin Towers were implemented. Assigning Blame
A few days after the attack, the FBI arrested Mohammed A. Salameh and his friend Nidal Ayyad as prime suspects. Salameh had been traced through a fragment of metal at the scene with the serial number of a Ford Econoline van belonging to a Jersey City Ryder rental agency. On March 4, 1994, a jury convicted four defendants on all 38 counts against them. On February 7, 1995, Pakistani authorities arrested Ramsi Yousef and extradited him to the United States. On January 8, 1998, Yousef was sentenced to 240 years in prison.
The Oklahoma bombing was an inside job, for which Timothy McVeigh, a government agent, was the patsy. For more information on the Oklahoma bombing, visit this link: http://www.goodnewsaboutgod.com/studies/current_news/oklahoma_bombing.htm
As a result of the bombing, the U.S. government passed the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, which tightened the standards forhabeas corpus in the United States, as well as legislation designed to increase the protection around federal buildings to deter future terrorist attacks.
The Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214, (also known as AEDPA) is an act of Congress signed into law on April 24, 1996. The bill was introduced by former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, passed with broad bipartisan support by Congress (91-8-1 in the United States Senate, 293-133-7 in the House of Representatives) following the 1990s World Trade Center and Oklahoma City bombings, and signed into law by President Bill Clinton.
National Defense Authorization Act - NDAA, a law recently passed by the Senate which would place domestic terror investigations and interrogations into the hands of the military and which would open the door for trial-free, indefinite detention of anyone, including American citizens, so long as the government calls them terrorists.
So much for “innocent until proven guilty.” So much for limited government. What Americans are now facing is quite literally the end of the line. We will either uphold the freedoms of our Constitutional Republic, or we will scrap the entire project in the name of security as we wage, endlessly, this futile, costly, and ultimately self-defeating War on Terror.
Over at Wired, Spencer Ackerman gives us the long and short of things:
There are still changes swirling around the Senate, but this looks like the basic shape of the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act. Someone the government says is “a member of, or part of, al-Qaeda or an associated force” can be held in military custody “without trial until the end of the hostilities authorized by the Authorization for Use of Military Force.” Those hostilities are currently scheduled to end the Wednesday after never. The move would shut down criminal trials for terror suspects.
But far more dramatically, the detention mandate to use indefinite military detention in terrorism cases isn’t limited to foreigners. It’s confusing, because two different sections of the bill seem to contradict each other, but in the judgment of the University of Texas’ Robert Chesney — a nonpartisan authority on military detention — “U.S. citizens are included in the grant of detention authority.”
An amendment that would limit military detentions to people captured overseas failed on Thursday afternoon. The Senate soundly defeated a measure to strip out all the detention provisions on Tuesday.
So despite the Sixth Amendment’s guarantee of a right to trial, the Senate bill would let the government lock up any citizen it swears is a terrorist, without the burden of proving its case to an independent judge, and for the lifespan of an amorphous war that conceivably will never end. And because the Senate is using the bill that authorizes funding for the military as its vehicle for this dramatic constitutional claim, it’s pretty likely to pass.

The USA PATRIOT Act Was Planned Before 9/11 by Jennifer Van Bergen, Truthout.org 20 May, 2002
Many people do not know that the USA PATRIOT Act was already written and ready to go long before September 11th. Recent criticism of Bush's admission that he had received warnings only weeks before September 11th has made it more important to understand the origins of the USAPA.
The USA PATRIOT Act - the so-called "Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001," a.k.a. the USAPA -- was enacted in the immediate wake of 9/11, riding a wave of fear that spread over the nation. This Act has caused much concern amongst civil rights advocates. The Administration, however, responded to such concerns by calling critics unpatriotic. Now, the White House has had a similar response to critics of Bush's recent admission of early warnings.
"The President proposes to create a new Department of Homeland Security, the most significant transformation of the U.S. government in over half-century by largely transforming and realigning the current confusing patchwork of government activities into a single department whose primary mission is to protect our homeland. The creation of a Department of Homeland Security is one more key step in the President’s national strategy for homeland security."

Michel Chossudovsky Global Research Monday, January 2, 2012
With minimal media debate, at a time when Americans were celebrating the New Year with their loved ones, the “National Defense Authorization Act ” H.R. 1540 was signed into law by President Barack Obama. The actual signing took place in Hawaii on the 31st of December.
According to Obama’s “signing statement”, the threat of Al Qaeda to the Security of the Homeland constitutes a justification for repealing fundamental rights and freedoms, with a stroke of the pen.
The controversial signing statement (see transcript below) is a smokescreen. Obama says he disagrees with the NDAA but he signs it into law.
“[I have] serious reservations with certain provisions that regulate the detention, interrogation, and prosecution of suspected terrorists.”
Obama implements “Police State USA”, while acknowledging that certain provisions of the NDAA are unacceptable. If such is the case, he could have either vetoed the NDAA (H.R. 1540) or sent it back to Congress with his objections.
The “National Defense Authorization Act ” (H.R. 1540) is Obama’s New Year’s “Gift” to the American People.
He justifies the signing of the NDAA as a means to combating terrorism, as part of a “counter-terrorism” agenda. But in substance, any American opposed to the policies of the US government can –under the provisions of the NDAA– be labelled a “suspected terrorist” and arrested under military detention.
“Moreover, I want to clarify that my Administration will not authorize the indefinite military detention without trial of American citizens. Indeed, I believe that doing so would break with our most important traditions and values as a Nation. My Administration will interpret section 1021 in a manner that ensures that any detention it authorizes complies with the Constitution, the laws of war, and all other applicable law.”
Barack Obama is a lawyer (a graduate from Harvard Law School). He knows fair well that his signing statement –which parrots his commitment to democracy– is purely cosmetic. It has no force of law.
His adminstration “will not authorize” what? The implementation of a Law signed by the US president?
Section 1021 is crystal clear. The Executive cannot refuse to implement it. The signing statement does not in any way invalidate or modify the actual signing by President Obama of NDAA (H.R. 1540) into law.
“Democratic Dictatorship” in America The “National Defense Authorization Act ” (H.R. 1540) repeals the US Constitution. While the facade of democracy prevails, supported by media propaganda, the American republic is fractured. The tendency is towards the establishment of a totalitarian State, a military government dressed in civilian clothes.
The passage of NDAA is intimately related to Washington’s global military agenda. The military pursuit of Worldwide hegemony also requires the “Militarization of the Homeland”, namely the demise of the American Republic.
In substance, the signing statement is intended to mislead Americans and provide a “democratic face” to the President as well as to the unfolding post-911 Military Police State apparatus.
The “most important traditions and values” in derogation of The Bill of Rights and the US Constitution have indeed been repealed, effective on New Year’s Day, January 1st 2012.
The NDAA authorises the arbitrary and indefinite military detention of American citizens.

“It’s criminal that people tolerated this so much, that we tolerated this marital law, and total acceptance that they can come into our houses and we cannot even go out of the house,” he added. While he understood that it was a serious crisis, he found the response “very very scary.”

Communism vs. Fabian Socialism
Creeping Communism
The Fabians whose logo until very recently was a Wolf in Sheep's clothing are a breed of Communism who believed in Collectivism (Communism) by stealth and many of the Globalists would belong to this scheming organization.Since the collapse of Communism you can rest assured that they are now to be found amongst the Fabians.
The Fabians are well established in Australia and many are in the Labor party. All of Prime Minister Gough Whitlam's cabinet were Fabians and Prime Ministers Hawke and Keating also belonged to the Fabians.

The 1993 Bombing
The First Attack on the World Trade Center
On Friday, February 26, 1993, at 12:18 PM, a large explosion ripped through the public parking garage of the World Trade Center. The explosion resulted in six persons being killed, and more than 1,000 being injured; and resulted in nearly $300 million in property damage.1The explosion was caused by a 1500-pound urea-nitrate bomb, packed in a yellow Ford Econoline rental van, and detonated with a timer after the van had been parked in the basement parking garage. The explosion created a crater 200 feet by 100 feet wide and several stories deep. Evacuation of the twin towers began after the blast. Most of the injuries were due to smoke inhalation.

On January 8, 1998, Yousef was sentenced to 240 years in prison.
Subterranean Site of the Bombing
No forensic evidence or eyewitness testimony was produced to place any of the suspects at the scene of the crime. Salameh had reported the van stolen to Jersey City police the day before the bombing. He was unable to provide the license plate number, having left the rental documents in the van. He also reported the theft to the rental agency, and attempted to retrieve his $400 deposit. On the day of the bombing he again telephoned the rental agency and obtained the license plate number. He then filed a second report with the police, this time with the plate number. 2Oklahoma Bombing
The Oklahoma City bombing was presented to the public as a domestic terrorist bomb attack on the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995. The bombing killed 168 people and injured more than 680 others. The blast destroyed or damaged 324 buildings within a 16-block radius, destroyed or burned 86 cars, and shattered glass in 258 nearby buildings, something a fertilizer bomb in a truck cannot do, causing at least an estimated $652 million worth of damage.The Oklahoma bombing was an inside job, for which Timothy McVeigh, a government agent, was the patsy.

Habeas corpus
The AEDPA had a tremendous impact on the law of habeas corpus in the United States. One provision of the AEDPA limits the power of federal judges to grant relief unless the state court's adjudication of the claim resulted in a decision that was contrary to, or involved an unreasonable application of clearly established federal law as determined by the Supreme Court of the United States; or based on an unreasonable determination of the facts in light of the evidence presented in the state court proceeding.National Defense Authorization Act - NDAA, a law recently passed by the Senate which would place domestic terror investigations and interrogations into the hands of the military and which would open the door for trial-free, indefinite detention of anyone, including American citizens, so long as the government calls them terrorists.

Habeas Corpus Act 1679
The Habeas Corpus Act 1679 is an Act of the Parliament of England (31 Cha. 2 c. 2)[2] passed during the reign of King Charles II by what became known as theHabeas Corpus Parliament to define and strengthen the ancient prerogative writ of habeas corpus, a procedural device to force the courts to examine the lawfulness of a prisoner's detention.Habeas corpus in the United States
Habeas corpus is a legal action or writ by means of which detainees can seek relief from unlawful imprisonment. The Suspension Clause of the United States Constitution specifically included the English common law procedure in Article One, Section 9, clause 2, which demands that "The privilege of the writ of habeas corpusshall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it."September 11, 2001 Destruction of the World Trade Center

According to Obama’s “signing statement”, the threat of Al Qaeda to the Security of the Homeland constitutes a justification for repealing fundamental rights and freedoms, with a stroke of the pen.
The controversial signing statement (see transcript below) is a smokescreen. Obama says he disagrees with the NDAA but he signs it into law.
“[I have] serious reservations with certain provisions that regulate the detention, interrogation, and prosecution of suspected terrorists.”
Obama implements “Police State USA”, while acknowledging that certain provisions of the NDAA are unacceptable. If such is the case, he could have either vetoed the NDAA (H.R. 1540) or sent it back to Congress with his objections.
The “National Defense Authorization Act ” (H.R. 1540) is Obama’s New Year’s “Gift” to the American People.
He justifies the signing of the NDAA as a means to combating terrorism, as part of a “counter-terrorism” agenda. But in substance, any American opposed to the policies of the US government can –under the provisions of the NDAA– be labelled a “suspected terrorist” and arrested under military detention.
“Moreover, I want to clarify that my Administration will not authorize the indefinite military detention without trial of American citizens. Indeed, I believe that doing so would break with our most important traditions and values as a Nation. My Administration will interpret section 1021 in a manner that ensures that any detention it authorizes complies with the Constitution, the laws of war, and all other applicable law.”
Barack Obama is a lawyer (a graduate from Harvard Law School). He knows fair well that his signing statement –which parrots his commitment to democracy– is purely cosmetic. It has no force of law.
His adminstration “will not authorize” what? The implementation of a Law signed by the US president?
Section 1021 is crystal clear. The Executive cannot refuse to implement it. The signing statement does not in any way invalidate or modify the actual signing by President Obama of NDAA (H.R. 1540) into law.
“Democratic Dictatorship” in America The “National Defense Authorization Act ” (H.R. 1540) repeals the US Constitution. While the facade of democracy prevails, supported by media propaganda, the American republic is fractured. The tendency is towards the establishment of a totalitarian State, a military government dressed in civilian clothes.
The passage of NDAA is intimately related to Washington’s global military agenda. The military pursuit of Worldwide hegemony also requires the “Militarization of the Homeland”, namely the demise of the American Republic.
In substance, the signing statement is intended to mislead Americans and provide a “democratic face” to the President as well as to the unfolding post-911 Military Police State apparatus.
The “most important traditions and values” in derogation of The Bill of Rights and the US Constitution have indeed been repealed, effective on New Year’s Day, January 1st 2012.
The NDAA authorises the arbitrary and indefinite military detention of American citizens.

December 14, 2012 – Sandy Hook School Shooting
April 15, 2013 Boston Bombing
Former Texas congressman Ron Paul criticized the wide-scale effort by law enforcement to capture the Tsarnaev brothers following the Boston Marathon bombing. “I mean, we had martial law out there,” Paul said on Fox Business Network’s Cavuto earlier this week. “The federal government is not supposed to be our police force.”
“It’s criminal that people tolerated this so much, that we tolerated this marital law, and total acceptance that they can come into our houses and we cannot even go out of the house,” he added. While he understood that it was a serious crisis, he found the response “very very scary.”

Two Types of Martial Law
Although the terms may differ, there are essentially two types of martial law. There is the hard core, very overt from of martial which is not disguised, it is simply brutal and deadly. The second type of martial law is often referred to as a “soft” type of martial law.
Hard core martial law is most often declared through a series of directives issued by executive civilian authority or most often by the military commander who has just seized control. Martial law which emanates from civilian authorities most often occurs in stages or in response to a significant crisis, real or false flag. In these instances, false flag attacks are often used to eliminate civil liberties prior to the elimination of the perceived opposition.

Hard Core Martial Law Characteristics
Hard core martial contains the following elements:
-mass roundup of political dissidents
-dusk to dawn curfews
-rationing of essential resources
-the seizing of personal assets such as food and water
-control over all food and water
-the prohibition of weapons of any kind including guns, knives or chemicals which can be turned into explosives
-the confiscation of property, homes and businesses
-arrests without due process
-massive “papers please” checkpoints with intrusive searches
-forced relocation
-forced conscription into various labor camps and even into the military
-outlawing of free speech
-the installation of massive surveillance programs and the establishment of snitch programs
-the total control or elimination of religion
-control of the media
-executions without due process of law
-total suspension of the Constitution
Just how many of these intrusive government policies are in place? The answer will surprise most readers.
The globalists are not yet rationing essential resources in totality. However, Executive Order 13603 does give the President the authority to do so. I find it concerning that Obama has derailed the Keystone pipeline and is shutting down coal plants. And there is the threat Obama recently made to implement his cap and trade through Executive Order. This is a prelude to the control of all energy.
FEMA regulations limit the amount of food and water one can store to three days total. Anything in excess of that can get one declared to be a domestic terrorist. Under Agenda 21 provisions, many local governments place severe restrictions on growing one’s own food. Colorado has criminalized the private trapping of rain water and the reuse of irrigation water by farmers. I would say that moves that state quite a long way down the road to hard core martial law.
Through perpetrating various false flag attacks, Obama is doing his best to seize and ban weapons on an incremental scale.
The omnipresent property tax, in this time of high unemployment, increases the amount of forfeited properties and results in the increased confiscations of property, homes and businesses. Just the mere fact that the government tolerates the MERS mortgage fraud in which American homes are being stolen under fraudulent circumstances, constitutes martial law confiscation by the very banksters who are running our government.
The NDAA allows arrests without due process.The Military Commission Act of 2006, in which some can be declared a terrorist for very flimsy and nebulous reasons, constitutes hard core martial law as well.
On July 4, 2013, the TSA and DHS were on several highways, bus stations, train stations and of course, as always, in every airport conducting a massive “papers please” searches of property and people. These types of checkpoints are consistent with the most hard core of martial law conditions.
We are not yet witnessing forced relocation of people in large numbers. However, Obama’s friend and previous mentor, Mike Kulig and his Build One America is working towards a tax incentive system which will eventually turn the suburbs into ghost towns. The Agenda 21 restrictions placed upon farmers has forced many into the cities. A rose by any color is still a rose.
The Civilian Inmate Labor program grants the government the ability to forcibly conscript, any citizen, healthy or not, with no age qualifiers, into various labor camps and even into the military. Further, Executive Order 13603 grants the government the same authority.
Obama has declared war on journalists as evidenced by the assassinations of Andrew Breitbart and Michael Hastings. In essence, Obama is beginning to outlaw of free speech, whistle-blowing and freedom of the press.
For nearly 20 years, many in the alternative media have known about the massive surveillance programs conducted by the NSA and several other alphabet soup agencies. Now, because of Ed Snowden, the ignorant public is aware of the installation of massive surveillance programs which are cataloging everything Americans read, do and say. These conditions were the cornerstone of the East German Stasi. East Germany was in a perpetual state of martial law. And the newly announced Federal worker snitch program to go along with “see something, say something” civilian spy programs are absolute hallmark indicators of martial law. And if this not enough, there are the omnipresent Fusion Threat Centers and Infraguard.
The church could have served the purpose of opposing the creeping incrementalism of the hard core implementation of martial law. And to this end, most of your churches and your religious leaders have let you down. The control or elimination of religion is being implemented through the 501 (3) (c) tax exempt status which prohibits churches from making political stands or backing certain candidates. This past spring, DHS authorities declared “Bible believing Christians” to be domestic terrorists.
The very bankers who desire total control over you have enjoyed total control over the media for at least the last 15-20 years. Ninety five percent of the media is owned by five corporations. Obama, through the UN is trying to take control over the internet which would leave us with a totally state run media.This is a cornerstone trait of martial law.
Most Americans do not realize that executions without due process of law have already been carried out against American citizens. The primary targeted individual, Anwar al-Awlaki, was a radical Muslim cleric whom U.S. officials said was involved in planning Al Qaeda operations and terror attacks. Besides al-Awlaki, Samir Khan, Jude Kennan Mohammed and Awlaki’s son, Abdulrahman Anwar al-Awlaki, were executed by drones according to Attorney General Holder. The precedent has been set and Holder has declared the authority to carry out unwarranted executions.
Due to the passage of the NDAA, the Patriot Acts, intimidation through the murders of Breitbart and Hastings, the ability for the government to transfer property from one private party to another private party under the New London, CT. Supreme Court decision, has rendered much of the constitution to be null and void.
The only elements that have not yet been acted upon in today’s America with regard to hard-core martial law are MASS roundups and MASS executions. I contend that it is only a matter of time and that the NSA surveillance grid is still profiling every individual to that end. The evidence is clear that soon many of us will not be freely walking the streets of the United States.

As of this publication, the United States is not experiencing the mass round up of political dissidents and dusk to dawn curfews.

The military take over of Boston. This was a dress rehearsal.
Martial law control over a large American city took place this past fall in Boston. http://thecommonsenseshow.com/2013/07/11/the-us-is-under-martial-law/The Three Stages of Martial Law Roll-Out
Under martial law, Obama can effectively eliminate all opposition to his administration. Under martial law, Obama can eliminate all media opposition to his presidency. Additionally, under martial law, Obama can remain in power, perhaps indefinitely. The pattern for the implementation of martial law follows three very distinct stages.
Stage one of martial law consists of the gradual roll-out of government controls over citizen liberties. Travel is restricted through inland border checkpoints. The internal DHS VIPR programs which randomly search citizens at public events and on the highways are now in place. Citizens are conditioned by the TSA that they do not control or own their bodies as the flying public is molested by the TSA everyday in our nation’s airports in an extreme violation of our citizens Fourth Amendment rights. Stage one also begins to create an enemies list and we have already seen this in the MIAC report in which Christians, Ron Paul supporters, Second Amendment supporters, Libertarians and Constitutionalists have been branded as domestic terrorists. The enemies list has been created and will be acted upon at a future date. In Stage one, the government elevates itself above any pretense of constitutional liberties. America has been firmly under Stage one martial law governance since the events of 9/11.
In Stage two, martial law implementation becomes obvious to all citizens except for the ones who invoke cognitive dissonance as a psychological coping mechanism. Stage two is marked by restrictions on travel, the loss of free speech and the right to assemble to air grievances against the government.

DHS bullet proof checkpoint. “Papers Please”
National ID
In Stage two, the free internet as we know it, will disappear. Subsequently, the truthful, alternative media will disappear as well. Stage two is also characterized by the total loss of due process of law with regard to detainment, imprisonment or worse. This stage is also marked by limiting participation of members of the society who have been previously identified as enemies of the state (i.e. MIAC Report). This would include the ability to hold certain kinds of employment, a special designation on a form of national ID, the imposition of restrictions on who can marry, where one can live, etc. The Loss of Private Property
Stage two also witnesses the total loss of private property and free will in terms of choice of domicile (i.e. Agenda 21), choice of employment and exercising any form of political choice. In short, Stage two is characterized by creating a political caste system in which the legal rights of certain groups are set in place (i.e. NDAA, Executive Order 13603, etc). The MERS mortgage fraud inspired thievery of legitimate home titles and the MF Global theft of privately secured investment accounts are cases in point. Stage two is often preceded by a false flag attack (e.g. burning of the Reichstag) designed to create a perceived enemy which serves as the excuse for the encroachment of “necessary” tyranny in a society in which “we must trade our liberty for security” approach to governance.
Stage three martial law has given history some of its darkest days. Warrantless detentions become common place in which suspected political dissidents are removed from society, usually in the middle of the night. In modern terminology, these would be referred to as the “Red list” tagged citizens who are detained and normally executed. These include outspoken preachers, outspoken talk show hosts, people who have any kind of history of civil disobedience.
The remainder of this article will exclusively focus on the establishment of Stage two martial law.

Police State Measures
From unconstitutional border checkpoints which are dozens of miles inland, America has been under a soft form of martial law for some time. The TSA conducts illegal and unconstitutional sexual assault, everyday, upon the flying public. The TSA has expanded their illegal detention and search operations through Operation VIPR on highways, malls and even a high school prom in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The NSA spies on your every electronic communication and has created a threat matrix database on every American. Why? What have Americans done that is so bad that our federal agencies have to invade rodeos, NASCAR events and the I-40 highway in Tennessee to pull over Americans without probable cause and molest their bodies in the name of national security? These unwarranted actions are the preliminary event to the roll out of Stage two martial law.

It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months.
What do you think about 923 Executive Orders in one part of one term? Yes, there is a reason: it is that the President is determined to take control away from the House and the Senate.
The Original Question: When Will the U.S. Government Declare Martial Law?
Answer: It doesn’t have to Declare Martial Law. Martial Law has already been put into effect in the U.S. – yet Americans are so blind they still believe they’re “free.”
Where are we in Prophetic Time?
Seven Seals of Revelation, Chapter 6:
1st Seal: white horse with rider. Rider carries a bow and a crown was given unto Him and He went forth conquering, and to conquer. This rider is believed to represent Jesus Christ.
2nd Seal: Red horse: Power was given to rider to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another; and a great sword was given unto him. (Represents opposition to the Gospel rider, or war against the people of Christ.)
3rd Seal: A black horse with a rider having a pair of balances: A measure of wheat for a denarius and three measures of barley for a denarius; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. (This horse announces not only a famine of food, but a famine of God’s Word and Spirit. The true gospel is replaced by a doctrinal belief system, called orthodoxy. But doctrines and ceremonies cannot feed the soul, as Christ warned in His letter to the ecclesia in Pergamum (Rev 2:14-16)
4th Seal: A pale (green) horse with a rider whose name was Death, and the unseen followed with him. And power was given unto them over the FOURTH part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death (disease), and with the wild animals of the earth.
(The famines, killing by the sword (guillotines have been ordered for the concentration camps, and disease is rampant. And clearly, at least one-fourth of the earth is already involved.
The color of a deathly pale or green suggests a continued state of spiritual decline and of a greater hardening of the heart. The result is apostasy of the soul. We may think of heresies and errors as a consequence of rejecting the truth of the gospel (see Rev 2:20-23). The “wild beasts” are then a symbolic anticipation of the persecuting beasts of Rev 13 which were also “given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them” (Rev 13:7, 14,15).
5th Seal: Souls under the altar that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held. And they cried out, “How long, O Lord, holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?” White robes were given unto them. But they were told their fellowservants and their brethren would also be killed.
6th Seal: A great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood. And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree drops its late figs, when she is shaken by a mighty wind.
And the sky split apart as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
And the kings of the EARTH, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every slave, and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, ‘Fall on us, and hide us from the face of Him that sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb.
For the great day of His wrath is come; and who is able to stand?
This is Christ’s reply to the cry of the martyrs “under the altar” in the 5th Seal: “How long, how long until our blood is avenged.” Christ says ( in the 5th Seal) “The time is now.”
Cosmic signs carry theological significance in Hebrew theology, because they were depicted as manifestations of the Creator, coming as the King and Holy Warrior on behalf of His covenant people.
The 6th Seal leaves us with the impression that there will be a universal ruin of all humanity.
7th Seal: Silence in heaven about the space of half an hour indicating that everything is over. The 7 Seals end with the Coming of Christ.
One hour in prophetic time is 15 days. If a day is a year in prophecy, then a 24 hour day symbolizes a 365-day year. Therefore, one hour is 1/24th of a day, so 1/24th of a 365-day year is approximately 15 days. One-half hour would be approximately one week, or 7 days.
Seven days is the period of time that Noah and his family were in the ark BEFORE the rain began.
“And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood. . . And it came to pass after seven days,that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.” Genesis 7:7,10.
Jesus, Himself, said:
“As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of Man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage (life was appearing to go on as usual) until the DAY that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. . . Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.” Luke 17:26,27
The 7th Seal Introduces the 7 Trumpets:
Interpretation of the Seven Seals:
In Israel’s past God had sent four judgments on His rebellious covenant people: war, plague, famine and death (See Lev 26:23-26; Deut 32:23-25 : Ezek 14:12-14,21). But these judgments were never God’s final judgments. These served as preliminary judgments, to motivate His wayward people to return to God.
God remains in control even when His children die as martyrs. He also sets boundaries to the pale rider under the fourth seal (Rev 6:8). Only one fourth of the earth and its inhabitants can be affected.
John is indebted to the Old Testament for his imagery of heavenly cavalry. Zechariah described four horses with different colors in his visions (Zech 1:8-17 and 6:1-8) This indicates that we should look at the meaning of Zechariah’s four symbolic horses before we interpret the four apocalyptic horse riders.
In Zech 6, the interpreting angel explains that the four charioteers signify the four spirits or winds of heaven, that are sent out as ministers of God, to fulfill the redemptive will of God in the entire hostile world. Zechariah’s four visionary war-chariots were sent out into the world with a double mission: 1) to submit all the political world powers to the will of Israel’s God (also Hag 2:7-10;2:20-23); and 2) to gather all believing Israelites and other believers to Jerusalem and Mount Zion (Zech 8:8, 20-23). The main purpose is the realization of God’s plan of redemption and the restoration of true worship (Zech 8:22,23).
The Seven Seals depict what is happening to the Saints during this troublesome time period.
The Seals involve one-fourth of the earth in disaster.
The Trumpets involve one-third of the earth in disaster.
The Plagues involve the whole earth in disaster.
The Seals, Trumpets and Plagues each end in the Second Coming of Christ. Therefore, they are progressive: they denote that everything is getting worse.

The President signed 923 Executive Orders in 40 Months. It is all over the net. These sites include commentary on what the executive order is for and what it does.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 10990 allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 10995 allows the government to seize and control the communication media.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 10997 allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas, petroleum, fuels and minerals.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 10998 allows the government to take over all food resources and farms.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 11000 allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 11001 allows the government to take over all health, education and welfare functions.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 11002 designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 11003 allows the government to take over all airports and aircraft, including commercial aircraft.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 11004 allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, build new housing with public funds, designate areas to be abandoned, and establish new locations for populations.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 11005 allows the government to take over railroads, inland waterways and public storage facilities.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 11049 assigns emergency preparedness function to federal departments and agencies, consolidating 21 operative Executive Orders issued over a fifteen year period.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 11051 specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 11310 grants authority to the Department of Justice to enforce the plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President.
-EXECUTIVE ORDER 11921 allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution, of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in U.S. financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months.
What do you think about 923 Executive Orders in one part of one term? Yes, there is a reason: it is that the President is determined to take control away from the House and the Senate.
The Original Question: When Will the U.S. Government Declare Martial Law?
Answer: It doesn’t have to Declare Martial Law. Martial Law has already been put into effect in the U.S. – yet Americans are so blind they still believe they’re “free.”
Where are we in Prophetic Time?
Seven Seals of Revelation, Chapter 6:
1st Seal: white horse with rider. Rider carries a bow and a crown was given unto Him and He went forth conquering, and to conquer. This rider is believed to represent Jesus Christ.
2nd Seal: Red horse: Power was given to rider to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another; and a great sword was given unto him. (Represents opposition to the Gospel rider, or war against the people of Christ.)
3rd Seal: A black horse with a rider having a pair of balances: A measure of wheat for a denarius and three measures of barley for a denarius; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. (This horse announces not only a famine of food, but a famine of God’s Word and Spirit. The true gospel is replaced by a doctrinal belief system, called orthodoxy. But doctrines and ceremonies cannot feed the soul, as Christ warned in His letter to the ecclesia in Pergamum (Rev 2:14-16)
4th Seal: A pale (green) horse with a rider whose name was Death, and the unseen followed with him. And power was given unto them over the FOURTH part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death (disease), and with the wild animals of the earth.
(The famines, killing by the sword (guillotines have been ordered for the concentration camps, and disease is rampant. And clearly, at least one-fourth of the earth is already involved.
The color of a deathly pale or green suggests a continued state of spiritual decline and of a greater hardening of the heart. The result is apostasy of the soul. We may think of heresies and errors as a consequence of rejecting the truth of the gospel (see Rev 2:20-23). The “wild beasts” are then a symbolic anticipation of the persecuting beasts of Rev 13 which were also “given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them” (Rev 13:7, 14,15).
5th Seal: Souls under the altar that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held. And they cried out, “How long, O Lord, holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?” White robes were given unto them. But they were told their fellowservants and their brethren would also be killed.
6th Seal: A great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood. And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree drops its late figs, when she is shaken by a mighty wind.
And the sky split apart as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
And the kings of the EARTH, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every slave, and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, ‘Fall on us, and hide us from the face of Him that sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb.
For the great day of His wrath is come; and who is able to stand?
This is Christ’s reply to the cry of the martyrs “under the altar” in the 5th Seal: “How long, how long until our blood is avenged.” Christ says ( in the 5th Seal) “The time is now.”
Cosmic signs carry theological significance in Hebrew theology, because they were depicted as manifestations of the Creator, coming as the King and Holy Warrior on behalf of His covenant people.
The 6th Seal leaves us with the impression that there will be a universal ruin of all humanity.
7th Seal: Silence in heaven about the space of half an hour indicating that everything is over. The 7 Seals end with the Coming of Christ.
One hour in prophetic time is 15 days. If a day is a year in prophecy, then a 24 hour day symbolizes a 365-day year. Therefore, one hour is 1/24th of a day, so 1/24th of a 365-day year is approximately 15 days. One-half hour would be approximately one week, or 7 days.
Seven days is the period of time that Noah and his family were in the ark BEFORE the rain began.
“And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood. . . And it came to pass after seven days,that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.” Genesis 7:7,10.
Jesus, Himself, said:
“As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of Man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage (life was appearing to go on as usual) until the DAY that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. . . Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.” Luke 17:26,27
The 7th Seal Introduces the 7 Trumpets:
Interpretation of the Seven Seals:
In Israel’s past God had sent four judgments on His rebellious covenant people: war, plague, famine and death (See Lev 26:23-26; Deut 32:23-25 : Ezek 14:12-14,21). But these judgments were never God’s final judgments. These served as preliminary judgments, to motivate His wayward people to return to God.
God remains in control even when His children die as martyrs. He also sets boundaries to the pale rider under the fourth seal (Rev 6:8). Only one fourth of the earth and its inhabitants can be affected.
John is indebted to the Old Testament for his imagery of heavenly cavalry. Zechariah described four horses with different colors in his visions (Zech 1:8-17 and 6:1-8) This indicates that we should look at the meaning of Zechariah’s four symbolic horses before we interpret the four apocalyptic horse riders.
In Zech 6, the interpreting angel explains that the four charioteers signify the four spirits or winds of heaven, that are sent out as ministers of God, to fulfill the redemptive will of God in the entire hostile world. Zechariah’s four visionary war-chariots were sent out into the world with a double mission: 1) to submit all the political world powers to the will of Israel’s God (also Hag 2:7-10;2:20-23); and 2) to gather all believing Israelites and other believers to Jerusalem and Mount Zion (Zech 8:8, 20-23). The main purpose is the realization of God’s plan of redemption and the restoration of true worship (Zech 8:22,23).
The Seven Seals depict what is happening to the Saints during this troublesome time period.
The Seals involve one-fourth of the earth in disaster.
The Trumpets involve one-third of the earth in disaster.
The Plagues involve the whole earth in disaster.
The Seals, Trumpets and Plagues each end in the Second Coming of Christ. Therefore, they are progressive: they denote that everything is getting worse.
