Why the Patriot Movement Just Isn't "Moving"

A lot is said about the “Patriot Movement” in the US, but the movement doesn’t really seem to be getting anywhere.

Don’t get me wrong - there are some very notable people out there doing great things. 

Consider the alternative journalists who are quite literally, risking their lives to share information with those of us who are interested enough to read it.

Keep in mind the whistleblowers who told the world the truth about the BP oil spill, 9/11, the birth records of our “fearless leader” and many other behind-the-scenes plots against health, freedom and justice.

There are the preppers, stocking up, arming up, and educating themselves, so that, at the very least, they are self-sufficient and ready to fight should they be called upon.

These are the REAL patriots.  But who are the rest of these folks that consider themselves part of the “Patriot Movement”?  They don’t really seem to be moving anywhere, except maybe to the fridge, to get another drink to keep them hydrated while they type feverishly on their keyboards.

The Laptop Rambos:  The liberty forums are full of Laptop Rambos, with their battle cries stolen directly from the last Bruce Willis movie.  They like to quote Heston, too, claiming their multitude of guns will only be pried from their “cold dead hands”.  But for all of their tough talk, what are they really doing?  Buying all the guns and ammo they can manage to have delivered from Amazon while they angrily type away about those who would take away their rights?  Daydreaming about dashing around the forest in combat boots when the last time they ran anywhere, it was to the bathroom after that ill-advised trip to Taco Bell?    Oh – yeah – the Rambos?  They’re all being “watched” which is the reason that they are unable to take any action outside of pounding into their keyboards, “Live Free or Die!!!”

The Noble Net Orators:  These are the ones that type half a page of flowery rhetoric on the afore-mentioned forums.  They lay claim to vast service to the country, vow eternal loyalty to their oath to defend the country against all enemies, foreign and domestic and they really, really like to quote the Constitution and the founding fathers during their rousing internet orations.  But are they actually organizing anything or do they just like to hear themselves talk….er, see themselves type?

The Patriot Preachers:  Another popular forum member is the Patriot Preacher.  He or she enjoys drawing parallels between current happenings and the Bible.  This person is pretty sure that whatever bad stuff is happening, it’s occurring because the US is a hedonistic cesspool.  Their posts are full of scriptural quotes, Revelationesque predictions and no real direction. They are happy to tell us why it is all our fault but stop short of any real recommendations or actions. 

The Flag-Wavers:  They are proud to be American, they know all the words to every song with the word “America” in it in any form and they abide by proper flag etiquette, carefully bringing in their flags at dark and during inclement weather.  They may criticize the president using a line that they heard on the TV news that they really liked, their closets are loaded with red-white-and-blue clothing, and their vehicle boasts flag stickers and decals on every flat surface.  You don’t think they are Patriots?  Look at them!  They have WAY more visible flags than their neighbors!  Just don’t expect a whole lot from the Flag-Wavers when it comes to a discussion of the real issues because they still watch the network news at 6.

How the heck are we supposed to have a revolution if these are the folks running it? 

I guess that we should feel fortunate, looking back in history, to discover that only 3% of the people fought against oppression in the American Revolution.  10% of the population actively supported that brave 3%.  This left 87% of the population at that time to either side with the British, remain neutral or be armchair patriots, much like our list above.

Being a Patriot doesn’t mean that you have to get a sniper rifle and start picking off the enemy.  It doesn’t mean that you must oust the scum from Congress (although that sure would be nice).  You don’t have to have a radio show or website that gets a million hits per day.

It does mean, though, that action is required beyond a “Booyah!” on the internet.  If you happen to recognize yourself in the list above, consider upping your personal Patriot game by taking one of the real actions below.

You can spread the truth about what is happening in our country and around the world.

You can refuse to comply to anything that is at cross-purposes with your God-given rights.

You can resist by knowing the Constitution and insisting that it be followed.

You can speak up when you see the rights of others being trampled on, and not be a bystander to bullying by the Regime.

Quiet acts of Patriotism speak more loudly than a hundred words uttered without action.

Defining a "False Flag Event"

One of the terms bandied about alternative media and conspiracy theory sites is "FALSE FLAG EVENT".  What does this mean, exactly, and why is it important to understand it?

A  false flag event is an occurrence that is engineered to sway public opinion.  It's usually an event that is blamed on whatever hapless country the United States wants to declare war upon.  Generally speaking, a false flag event is designed to inflict maximum fear on a group of people, causing them to rally around a specific cause. Learn more about historic military false flag events HERE.

The reason it is important to understand this is because if we cannot recognize these events for what they really are, we can easily be manipulated by those in power.  Many brave soldiers -  our sons and daughters, our mothers and fathers, our friends and family, and courageous strangers unknown to us but fighting for us nonetheless - have been, and will be, sacrificed on the altar of power and money. 

The decisions made by the elite few in government, banking and the oil industry cost lives.  Those lives are not being sacrificed to protect our freedom.  Our real enemies are within our own gates, and they would do anything to distract us from this.

Currently, we are under threat of another false flag event.

The United States needs an enemy to keep her people from realizing that she is being overthrown from within.  The enemy flavor of the month is Iran.

The current administration, aided and abetted by the mainstream media, is preying on the fear of a nuclear event.  Of course everyone is concerned about being nuked off the map!  Such an occurrence could actually be the end of the human race.  And those crazy Iranians are testing their nukes right now....they must be planning to use them on us....we have to stop this!

Wait.

Independent auditors have said that Iran's nuclear research and capabilities is geared towards providing power for the country - not towards building weapons. Clinton Bastin, formerly of the US Atomic Energy Commission, was interviewed by 21st Century Scientist and went into detail about the goals and capabilities of the country, and also discredits some of the findings of the International Atomic Energy Agency - check out the ARTICLE's full text for more information.

Iran, along with Russia, refuses to accept the US dollar for oil.  Suddenly, alarm bells begin ringing about the nuclear capabilities of Iran and they must be stopped at all costs.

What costs?  Isn't this just another conspiracy theory by anti-government extremists?

Judge for yourself.

~ We are invading Iran's waters despite repeated warnings not to do so.  The USS Enterprise is on Route to the Strait of Hormuz . The Enterprise is a venerable carrier with many years of duty.  So many years that the military had plans to decommission her until this most recent "crisis" arose.  Now, she has been staffed and sent into a zone we have been warned not to enter.  It begs the question - if we are going to war, why wouldn't we send one of our more up-to-date carriers with advanced capabilities?  Doesn't it make you suspect that the Enterprise might just be the most disposable vessel and is destined to end up at the bottom of the sea loaded with 200-300 unfortunate members of our military that the government considers expendable?

If Iran blows up our ship, we are going to have no choice but to go to war.

~ As soon as Iran refused to take US money, the government unleashed all manner of economic sanctions against the small country in an attempt to economically cripple them.  You can read more about it HERE.

~ We're ticking off Iran because Israel says so.  Yep, it's true.  Iran has inflamed the rage of Israel, and since Israeli interests seem to run the United States government through campaign contributions and financial strangleholds.  Israel appears to be calling the shots in this particular engagement.

We can either unify and let the government know that we will not stand for another useless war or we can be dragged off to it like lambs to the slaughter.  We can educate ourselves independently of the mainstream media and we can

CALL BULLSHIT on our government.  The lives of our soldiers are at stake for nothing more than the price of a barrel of oil.  For nothing more than lining the already full pockets of the global elite.  For creating an event that will allow the powerful to stay in power.

Do your research - don't allow yourself to be manipulated into believing the lies of the next false flag event, manufactured for your viewing pleasure by the puppet masters currently running the show.  The pieces have been moved into place - beware.

Mysterious Technical Difficulties Plague Alternative News Sites

Alternative news websites seem to be dealing with a mysteriously increased number of technical issues lately.

Yesterday, the popular alternative site Dprogram.Net - Counteracting Propaganda was out of service for most of the afternoon and early evening, with a message saying only "Account Suspended."  According to the administrator of the site, that's the third time this week they've been offline.

Coincidentally, during the same time Dprogram was offline, WhatReallyHappened also suffered from technical concerns, although the outage was far briefer than that of Dprogram.

No one at the sites has cast any stones or suggested that this is all part of a greater conspiracy to silence the truth as alternative websites see it.  (That's just my personal theory,) However, in conjunction with SOPA, ACTA, and the new Google/CIA commitment to collect and provide information about users, as well as direct traffic to more government-friendly websites, one has to begin wondering.

Please show your support for these great alternative websites by visiting them regularly!  Daily they engage in the fight for free, accurate and uncensored information by publishing stories that the mass media wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole. They are true patriots, fighting for freedom through knowledge.

Here are a few more of my favorite sites:

SHTFplan

Alt-market.com

The Intel Hub

Zero Hedge

Info Wars

There are many many more great alternative websites.  Please feel free to share your favorites in the comments section.  The more visits they get the harder it is for mysterious forces to cause them to "disappear."
