    OK, this is what I don’t get....

    1. The Illuminati follow the Hegelian dialectic. This means that they control all of the possible outcomes of a situation. It means that they also control all the answers to a question.

    2. With that said. Why wouldn’t they control what is 'leaked' to people like Alex Jones?

    3. 1984 demonstrated this concept with the Book that defined the resistance. It turns out this revolutionary document was actually written by the Secret Police and used to trap opponents to the established regime.

    4. The Internet was built by military intelligence and the basic infrastructure is still maintained by Public Institutions.

    5. Alex could be good or bad. It doesn’t matter. What matters is where the information originates.

    I have definitely upset the PTB: see- http://www.farmersinsurancegroupsucks.com/forum/read.php?5,89 and they have made d*** sure that I don’t make a penny from any of my ventures....

    http://www.moneyteachers.org and http://moneywisdom.blogspot.com.

    They use trojans and mirror sites. I use Access Me and Numerous other programs so they are easily detected. I am what happens to true 'dissidents' in America. Yet, the media (internet and otherwise) continues to ignore the story.

    Why isn’t this happening to the voices of dissent elsewhere?
