Physical Evidence down the Rabbit Hole


I usually blow through and disregard the mainstream reports.  This one is different.  How far does the Rabbit Hole on UFO's go?

Cord Cutting on the Red Pill

I subscribe to a cord cutters sub Reddit.  There are many tips and new info all the time.  What I am wondering, are there any cord cutters out there in the ether?  I ask this, because recently a friend of mine was figuring out his cable tv/phone/internet "triple play" with Comcast.  he has no movie channels and a basic DVR on one television.  We work together, and we have a playful banter about cable vs cord cutting.

  • Is there a better and less expensive way to get the channels he likes for less cost? No
  • He is sick of only watching a few channels and paying for the other 100, can he do better? No
  • Is cutting the cord the right thing for him? No
Thats when the conversation turned into a bitching session from his side.  How many times do you use your home phone? Never, it is there for 911.  His cell phone, like most of us is his primary phone now.  How much can he skim off the bill of he got rid of that damn phone? None, it is tied to the amazing TRIPLE PLAY, that went from $99 a month for the introductory time, to its current $174 per month.  Thats is $2088 a year for many channels he does not watch for the 10 or so he does, and a phone he never uses.  

This is the trend that many in the country are falling into, the dreaded cord cutters.  Yep I am one of those.  I just did the math on a sub reddit, and my total entertainment is $360 a year.  For that I get all the internet I can get, and Netflix.  The Roku has many channels to subscribe to for FREE, and just over this last weekend, very quietly, The History Channel, and A&E Channel are on the menu for free. Granted, some of the selections are clips and teasers, but there are quite a few full episodes, and more will come.

Cord Cutting could be for everyone? Not a chance in hell.  Too many are addicted to the live sports, and "must see" television shows. Increasingly, more and more younger people are just getting internet and thats it.  The cable companies are seeing this trend, and guess what, they do not like it.

Take the chicken challenge offered by Tom Merrit, call your cable tv provider and tell them you want to cancel.  See what better deal you can get, and let me know.  I will post your comments.  The cable companies are basically giving it away free.  My friend did this, and guess what?  That $174 a month, went down to $134 a month, for the same services.  Try it, you might be surprised.

TAKE THE RED PILL CHALLENGE
If saving money is important to you and you feel like a challenge you life.  Cancel the cable tv. Go out and get a Roku, Chromecast, Apple TV, any set top box you like, and try in for a few months.  You just might find yourself changing you lifestyle more than you think.  All those wasted hours channel surfing for anything to watch, turns into fine tuning your likes.  You might find your significant other much more appealing (wink,wink), you might find yourself reading again, and wow, your brain will like that. The only people who never do it are those so stuck into their TV routine, that there is little hope.  If that is your case, you might want to reevaluate your life situation.  The one excuse I hear the most for not doing it, the kids would not like it. Really? I have found that kids adapt to new situations much faster than adults.

Then, go take that monthly savings, and splurge on something cool for you.  You will thank me.

Serve in Silence

Sometimes all it takes it a name, dropped into a conversation that sends my mind into curious mode.  That happened to me while listening to the No Agenda Podcast.  This post all about one name, and my quest to find out why it was there.

I want to tell you reader,  I have read many articles, and they are loaded with all the military lingo, and can describe the scene, the weaponry with much more precision than I ever can.  What I am trying to convey is my view from life experience, learning about the lies that our leaders both political and military, regularly tell us without even thinking about it. As long as they can advance their careers, get more funding, induce a state of fear in the public, they will do it, I guarantee that. If you can not wrap your head around that basic tenant, please take the Blue pill and read no further.  If that is also your life experience, take the Red Pill and continue.

Lost in the lawsuit against the NSA, Obama, Holder, and others, is the name of the plaintiffs who brought the suit in the first place. Judge Richard Leon ruled that the NSA most "likely" violated the 4th Amendment rights of Americans guaranteed under the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.  This pesky document to many in the halls of power just plain gets in the way of allowing them to pretty much do what the hell they want.  It is an absolute disgrace that the Federal Government is going to appeal this decision. That is a whole other post that will be written in the future.

This lawsuit was filed by Larry Klayman of Freedom Watch.  There is one other name as a co-plaintiff that has not gotten any publicity at all, and after all the research I have done, I know why. That name is Charles Strange.  Here is the press conference that was held to gain awareness of Extortion 17 and ST6

Charles Strange is father.  Charles Strange is a husband.  Charles Strange lost his son Michael in a helicopter crash on August 6, 2011.  Does that date ring a bell to anyone? That was the day that all  members of Seal Team 6 (ST6) were murdered by the Taliban in Tangi Valley, Wardak Province, Afghanistan.

I will give you a brief synopsis of the "official" story as reported by General Jeffrey Colt.  This is a 1250 page report that is quite remarkable in its scope and content, or lack of content.

The Chinook CH-47 transport helicopter was built in 1960 for our troops in the Vietnam war. This was not the normal operational chopper that ST6 used for missions.  ST6 used the new MH-47 Attack Choppers for their missions.  Never before, had all members of the team been placed on the same chopper.  This point has been made abundantly clear by many, NEVER had this been done. Why now?

The Chinook code named, Extortion 17, was shot down by a "lucky shot" from an RPG from two Taliban Fighters perched in a turret, in a tower near the landing zone.  This all occurred after the area had been declared a "hot zone"  a firefight had been going on for 3 and 1/2 hours prior to the Chinook entering the Tangi Valley.  The Chinook was hit as it was landing, that was when it was most vulnerable.  All members of the elite fighting Special Operations unit Seal Team 6 were killed, as well as the Afghans, and the combat dog, 38 in total.  In the aftermath the "black box" from the copter was "washed" away in a flood. Once again, a crucial and vital piece of evidence that could give a glimpse into what happened was "lost." The black box is so protected and indestructible that they never get lost, they are found in 10,000 feet of water, under swamps, but this one was lost in a river.  More questions than answers here.  The members of Seal Team 6 were flown to the United States, where all their bodies were cremated because they were "burned beyond recognition."   Their mission was to apprehend Al- Leader Qari Tahir, a "high value" target. Those are the "facts" reported by General Colt.
Qaeda

There was never any suppression fire laid down, there were over 100 Al-Qaeda, Taliban fighters waiting for ST6 in the hot zone.  The decision to go forward was made "out of theater", meaning, someone in Washington D.C. most likely gave the go ahead for this mission. To this day, we do not know who made that call.  The parents and others involved with the case are suing, to find out who.  Isn't that amazing, no one will admit to making that fateful decision to get Tahir that night.  Many feel it was Leon Panetta,who as of this writing is being investigated for leaking classified documents to the makers of the movie Zero Dark 30.

Now lets get to what Charles Strange and many other parents of Seal Team 6 want to know.  What happened to get their children killed?  Who gave the order to go ahead with this mission?  Charles Strange knows that the Obama is lying to him, and before you finish reading this post, you might come to that same conclusion. As always, please do not believe what I am telling you, look it up for yourself and verify, I ask you to do this so we can make those is power aware that we are awake to their high crimes, and folks, these are treasonous crimes.

I want to start with some basic mission parameters that were always followed.  I am getting this information from interviews, news articles, personal correspondence from the Seals to their parents.  As I write this, I am heartbroken at what happened to ST6.  I am  not a war monger, nor am I a pacifist , I fall in the middle somewhere.  If we are attacked, then we must defend ourselves.  This leads me into the first portion of my investigation.

The Rules of Engagement(ROE) for our soldiers in Afghanistan are not what you think, when you think of war.  We all have a frame of reference, whether that is your personal involvement in Vietnam, the Gulf War, movies, television, and books.  Many have this image of John Wayne charging up the sand at Iwo Jima, looking for the enemy, and killing them. This is not what is happening in Afghanistan, not by any stretch.  Our soldiers must be shot at, then make absolutely sure that the enemy has not dropped their weapon, then, and only then, can they fire and kill.  As one mother put it, "our boys basically have to be shot at twice, before they can return fire."  You see, our President has made it his mission, and those of his Generals to "win the hearts and minds" of our enemy.

I am all for winning those hearts and minds of innocent children, women and men, but not the enemy who is firing at you, trying to end your life. If all the people in the United States knew this ROE mission strategy, and the repercussions of that, I do believe that there would be some outrage, but more importantly, a big question as to why we are there is the first place.  I will get to that later.

As I have researched and investigated this horrible tragedy, I should make this clear. ST6 is the unit that "allegedly" killed Osama Bin Laden 93 days before they were killed.  I have put allegedly in quotes to point out that almost all of the various articles I have referenced use the word allegedly when describing that mission.  

Benazir Bhutto Former Prime Minister of Pakistan stated quite clearly that Osama Bin Laden was dead in 2003.  She was soon assassinated after this interview.  The crime scene of her murder was washed away with power hoses within minutes, no evidence was left to collect.  There are many who believe that her assassination was a direct action to her speaking about Bin Laden.

It is not beyond the realm of possibility that the President and his minions to use the alleged death of Bin Laden as a political victory to boost up approval numbers, create an overwhelming sense of patriotism among the citizens, and get the bad guy.  Please remember that the Bin Laden DNA match was done in an impossibly short time frame, we have not seen one picture, and his body was dumped in the ocean.  Does that sound legit to you?

If Obama or the generals had flown the body to Bagram Air Force Base, allowed some journalists of John Pilger caliber verify who it was, then the whole world would have at least some verification of his death. The official story why it was not done was that the "Islam" world would have been outraged.  If that was the case, then why did Obama and Biden leak the intel in the first place? They used this mission for political capital, plain and simple.

Which brings me to the code that ST6 lived by.  "Serve in Silence"  To a man, the members of ST6 made it clear to their families that their missions were secret, and nothing of what they did was made public. This is what they wanted.  When you hear Charles Strange castigate Joe Biden for naming the Navy Seals as the unit that killed Bin Laden, you can see the hate in his eyes.  Our politicians cannot keep their mouths shut, especially after a few drinks.


 We know that GWB used lies and deception to get us to attack Afghanistan and Iraq.  They used the "mushroom cloud" "weapons of mass destruction" in the media, Colin Powell held up a vial of some Bio-Weapon for the whole world to see.  They were not the first, and sadly, they will not be the last.

Poppy used a fake Kuwaiti girl to describe the Iraqi soldiers taking the "incubator babies" and throwing them on the hospital floor, to win the "hearts and minds of the American public in 1990.  "Nayirah" was a complete lie, from start to finish.  Her "incubator babies" story was written by the huge ad agency Hill & Knowlton on Madison Avenue.  Bin Laden himself was a creation of the CIA, used to fight the Russians in Afghanistan.  The United States armed him, paid him and used him to win their war in the 1980's.

When these missions are planned there are always Afghan National Army military in the room.  These Afghans know the flight plan, the terrain to be taken, the whole mission plan.  It was a joke among the Taliban and Al-Qaeda, how they had infiltrated these Afghan units and were receiving so much intel, that there is a name for this, Green on Blue attacks.  How the hell can our military allow this to happen is another dirty secret from this war. In the minutes prior to the Chinook taking off for the mission, the 7 Afghan military men were removed and replaced by 7 other Afghan military.  To this day, we do not know who these men were. To make the Afghan situation even more confusing, the military never interviewed the Afghans taken off the chopper, or we any Afghans involved the investigation into what happened to Extortion17

Qari Tahir was thought to be a "top leader" in Al-Qaeda.  He was supposedly in the building where ST6 was heading.  Why he was such a "high value" target, and why he had to be captured that night , has never been answered.  I wish to inform you that Tahir and a fellow terrorist were turned to dust a month later most likely from a Predator Drone while standing on a hilltop.

Charles Strange was told that his son was cremated because his body was burned beyond recognition.  He received a disc in mail, and on that disc were pictures of his son, on an autopsy table, and a report of the autopsy, not a complete one, but there was some information that is quite interesting.   His body was not burned, there were no apparent injuries, except for a possible ankle break or sprain.  More importantly, there was no smoke found in his lungs.

I cannot even imagine what these parents are going through.  After reading and researching this story I do have some comments and questions, maybe some of them are the same as yours?


  • Why did Biden leak the name of the unit?
  • How come all members of ST6 were on the same chopper?
  • Who made the decision to go ahead with this operation?
  • Why were the most elite fighting force in the world being transported into a known hot zone, in a 50 year old chopper?
  • Where is the black box from the chopper? This to me is a blatant lie. 
  • How come these parents are forced to sue the government for information regarding this case?
  • Who were the seven Afghan military who were taken off the Chinook minutes prior to taking off?
  • Who were the 8 Afghans who were put on the Chinook?
  • Why was there no smoke in the lungs of Michael Strange?
  • Why was Charles Strange told he was not supposed to see the autopsy pictures?
  • Is there a possibility that they were eliminated for security reasons? 
  • Why did the President lie to Charles Strange about looking "very very deep" into this tragedy, and then NEVER talk to him about it?
  • Why are the "hearts and minds" of the enemy more important than our own soldiers?
  • I am sure that military people who have access to the report have many more questions.

In closing, this is cover up at the minimum, and huge scandal waiting to erupt.  This is the dirty secret about Afghanistan and our presence there for the past 12 years.  Last year was a record year for Opium growth and exporting from Afghanistan.  How can we say that the United States of fighting a "war on drugs" when we have the CIA shipping almost 1  TRILLION dollars worth of opium out that country?

TRUE RED PILL RABBIT HOLE THINKING- PURE OFF THE RESERVATION IDEAS AND SPECULATION
Is there a possibility that ST6 was eliminated like what Ruby did to Oswald?  If, Bin Laden was already dead, as Benazir Bhutto clearly stated, then who was killed by ST6 in Pakistan?  Is there a chance that the military was seeing leakage in the "official narrative" and had to plug all leaks in the worst way possible?  We do know now that all emails, phone conversations, are monitored by NSA and other branches of the military that we probably do not know. 

The fact that Michael Strange had no smoke in his lungs, give the the idea, that maybe, just maybe, all the members of ST6 were already dead, when the Chinook started its landing in the Tangi Valley?  Did one of the seven Afghans inform their fellow terrorists about the mission?  Is there a chance that ST6 was flying into an ambush?  The world is starting to wake up to the fact that our government is capable of evil doings, killing innocents to get what they want. I am just speculating that all options must be on the table here.  If an idiot like myself can think this up, I am sure that those in the know, have already reached the same possible conclusions.

 Like Benghazi, the Obama administration is covering up vital information that these parents need to know for closure.  They are grieving today, and will not rest until this is figured out, and truth finds a way to come to the top.
