Jacob’s Ladder Syndrome

The one thing for sure that all political parties do have in common, – is the word party, as the word ‘gang’ doesn’t quite have the same public appeal to it.  Whereas using the word ‘party’, simply helps to legitimise the gang, fraternity or group of people who all work on a pyramidal hierarchal system in one form or another.  The British are more reserved and prefer to play down their role and involvement in the Masonic gang, as do many Europeans and Asians, – which in many parts of Asia and the middle-east, Freemasonry is still frowned upon, banned in most countries and carrying the death penalty in places like Iraq, [Saddam Hussein days], but despite all this, there’s still hundreds of thousands of them from all over these regions, as are there hundreds of thousands of Catholics, and again many more millions from all other denominations of religion.
Though in America, fraternity is everything, – if you haven’t already been fraternised out there, then you aren’t going anywhere far in life, almost every single member of the American government and their associated bodies, the legal system, the military, the police, the fire-fighters, ambulance and other health workers, teachers, scientists, academics and professors and a like etc., all started off as a plain old; “Fraty, Frat-boy or Soror-girl”, all members of the ‘Alpha, Delta, Kappa’ kinds of fraternity brigade.  [I explain more about this further on, as almost everyone in the US, Canada and other parts of the world know about them and where they’re well established, though us European’s, are not as familiar with these Greek society’s].
A Greek-system of fraternities, with millions of alumni members around the globe, and who are first enrolled and initiated whilst still at college or university, and that are the kinds of fraternities that also act as recruitment boot-camp for such organisations like the Military, Opus Dei, the Jesuits and of course the Freemasons.
Let’s have a look at the significance of Jacob’s ladder, and what influence it has on the world of Freemasonry.  The term Jacob’s ladder applies to a kind of ladder found on some square rigged ships, that sailors use to reach the upper part of the ships-mast and ‘crow’s nest’.  From its biblical reference, Jacob’s ladder is a ladder to heaven, described in the Book of Genesis that the biblical Hebrew leader Jacob envisions during his flight from his brother Esau.
In the Gospel of John 1:51 there is a clear reference to Jacob’s dream [Genesis 28:12] and it points towards Jesus Christ who is called with his title of Son of Man: “And he said to him, – Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man”.
The theme of the ladder to heaven is often used by the Early Church Fathers: Saint Irenaeus in the 2nd century describes the Christian Church as the ladder of ascent to God.  The Ladder of Jacob is in the Old Testament, is often considered to be part of the Apocalyptic reference shortly after the Destruction of the Temple.  Jacob is renamed “Israel” by an angel [Genesis 32:28-29 and 35:10].  And oddly enough Muslims believe Jacob was a Muslim, a “Submitter to God”, and who taught Islam to his twelve sons, whom I can only presume they too are viewed as Muslims.
The Qur’an describes Jacob as a faithful leader, a good-doer, holder of prayer and a man in service to God.  In Islam Jacob is revered as a prophet who was guided by God.  And perhaps you can see why Freemasonry bodes so well with both religions, where on the outside of the shell they seem to appear to be a completely different nut, yet once cracked open, you’ll see its very much same.
The Jewish Biblical philosopher Philo [d. ca. 50 CE] presents his allegorical interpretation of the ladder in the first book of his De somniis.  There he gives four interpretations: 1.The angels represent souls descending to and ascending from bodies [some consider this to be Philo’s clearest reference to reincarnation].  2. The ladder is the human soul and the angels are God’s logoi, pulling the soul up in distress and descending in compassion. 3. It depicts the ups and downs of the life of the “practiser” [of virtue]. 4. The continually changing affairs of men.
Among the several interpretations of Jacob’s ladder in the classic Torah commentaries: The place at which Jacob stopped for the night was in reality Mount Moriah, the future home of the Temple in Jerusalem.  The ladder therefore signifies the “bridge” between Heaven and earth, as prayers and sacrifices offered in the Holy Temple soldered a connection between God and the Jewish people.  Moreover, the ladder alludes to the Giving of the Torah as another connection between heaven and earth.
In the world of Freemasonry, Jacob’s ladder signifies the sequence of degrees the initiate can aspire to, following on from their own oath swearing ceremonial rituals and pledging taking procedures that are sworn and taken on each and every entry to the next level of degree, – when they’re then rewarded [normally paid by themselves] with the various symbolic tokens, gifts, memento’s that each individual item has a symbolic meaning and representation for something else as well as the degree itself.
There are gloves, gauntlets, hats, chain collars, aprons, badges, lariats, cufflinks, buckles, tie pins, canes, medals, swords, daggers, star shaped jewel crests and coloured silk sashes and the list goes on and on, and big bucks to be made from those dedicated millions of blind leading the blind followers of the craft, that all have a Masonic link almost always connected to ancient Greek, Egypt, Rome and the Bible or Torah and other earlier religious and ancient texts and beliefs also a regularly feature.
As I say, there’s symbolic meaning in everything, hats in general as they’ve always denoted rank in society, – alleged gentlemen wore top hats, or cocked hats prior this time, whilst you’re lower classes are famous for donning a flat cloth hat.  Whereas, when your bowler hat came along, people of from all walks of life could be seen wearing one, though it must be said it was predominately your middleclass City kind of chap, such as bank manager Captain Manwaring out of the Dad’s Army TV series, who was famous for wearing one.  More so in them days than present, but almost every bank manger was a Freemason and a very high percentage of them still are today.
And no wonder they weren’t too keen to have TV cameras in Masonic Houses of Parliament, as only recent as 1998 the tradition for MP’s to wear a collapsible Top hat, known as an “Opera Hat” ceased.  The hat was put on ones bonce within the House of Commons to raise a “point of order” during a division, and in the past the ‘Speaker of the House’ had to wear one, as it signified the house was in session.  Though not an everyday item, top hats are still worn in The House of Lords, as a Peer one wears a “symbolic Crown”, though nowadays normally limited to coronations and other state occasions etc.
You can still see the odd traditionalist “Stock Jobber” wearing a “Topper” in the City of London, who works in the London Stock Exchange, though this common practice stopped around the mid 1980’s.  A Stock Jobber is formerly a trusted person who bought and sold stocks and shares from other traders on the floor of the Stock Exchange, no physical money changed hands during these transactions, normally the Jobber was dealing on someone else’s behalf, and again these kinds of positions were only normally allocated to a fellow Freemason.  And it is where we get the phrase; “My word is my bond”, as this specific term has for centuries been the motto of the London Stock Exchange, but in various forms; e.g. “a gentleman’s/Englishman’s word is as good as his bond”, it dates back to at least 1500, when a Scottish source has “O kingis word, shuld be o kingis bonde”. [1] In the bible; Kings 18:4 for when Jezebel destroyed the prophets of the LORD, Obadiah took a … [2] and will cut off from Ahab every male, “both bond” and free in Israel.
The wearing of a top hat generally signifies to other Freemasons he is a Master Mason.  It is said you can enter many a lodge and count the number of Master Masons, by the number of hats along the top shelf.  It is also said with the head being covered it has a meaning of authority, and he is going about his loyal duty.  The wearing of hats also symbolises freedom and brotherly equality.  In French Masonry a new Master of a Lodge receives a hat with the words; “With this hat you may cover yourself in the future”, again pointing to the authority bestowed upon the Master of the Lodge. [3]
There’s much more meaning to it and everything else in Freemasonry, but I simply haven’t the room here to tell you much more.  I do cover a lot about the subject, but my main purpose is not teach you about the subject, but to inform you how widespread it is and always has been.  I want the average man and women in the street to realise why the world is how it is, – which is not because of god or religion passé, but because of these band of secret societies who have us trapped in a Masonic world of theirs, contrived to serve them and to keep us suppressed and in order.  And how this has been achieved and maintained is by having these all important secret ceremonies, rituals, oaths and pledges in line for the initiate to carry out and be rewarded for good merit as when they are due, is how the Order has been able to control its millions of members from everyday walks of life in which 98% of them make up the overall majority of their fraternities membership.

It’s said of Jacob’s ladder; that it plays two important symbolic roles in Freemasonry, which is introduced to the initiate at the very first degree and then again at the 30th degree of the Knight Kadosh.  The ladder represents the lessons learned in life, [listening and learning to be loyal to your masters and doing unquestionably as is asked of you], which if properly used, brings the initiated higher and higher in knowledge; [if you adhere to your oaths and pledges, and are loyal to the brotherhood, you will be rewarded and promotion will follow].  However, if these lessons are forgotten, the danger of falling back down is continuously present, [if you fail to adhere to your solemn oaths, pledges and commitment to the fraternity then you’re soon be out on your ear].  And again, first and foremost the majority of Freemasons will never even surpass the 3rd degree of Master Mason, as many of the higher degrees are by invitation only, and reflects you current status and the profession you may be in, which in addition is what the reward of medals and honour system is all about.  Imagine those ambitious among us who will trample on as many people’s heads, whilst stamping on the white knuckles of all those others who too are holding tightly onto the rungs of Jacobs ladder, as they all try and descend to the heights of brotherhood, and whose degrees are like that of the British knighthoods, as there are degrees like that of the Golden Fleece, Star and Garter etc.
The Order of the Garter is the most illustrious order of British knighthood.  It was instituted by King Edward III in 1348.  The order consists of the sovereign and 25 companions, of which the Prince of Wales is always a member.  The Most Noble Order of the Garter is the highest English Order of Chivalry and is one of the most important of all such Orders throughout the world, though not the oldest which is said to be The Most Ancient and Most Noble Order of the Thistle which allegedly goes back to Alexander III of Scotland in 1249, and is perhaps an indicator as to how far back Masonic orders and traditions really go, which is long before the alleged obscure origins of the late 16th to early 17th centuries in when Freemasonry is commonly believed to have first started. [4]
Apart from the Masonic degrees, the whole British knighthood and “Cash for Honours” system has long been a farce, when in the 1920’s, Maundy Gregory a Freemason, was a man PM Lloyd George used as a go-between to flog honours for cash.  In the Telegraph, Harry de Quetteville reported that Gregory offered gongs at a going rate of £10,000 for a knighthood and £40,000 for a baronetcy.  Funnily enough, there’s no ‘honour’ among thieves, as when a 19th century donor who wrote the Tories a cheque for £50,000 only signed it in his surname, so that it could only be cashed once he had been made a ‘Lord’. [5]
When the Order of the British Empire was founded by George V in 1917, Lloyd George is said to have asked Gregory what he could ask for an OBE, Gregory’s reply was; about £100 a time.  [6] Author Henry Makow Ph.D. wrote when the British Cabinet whom Lloyd George headed, issued the Balfour Declaration in 1917, which was formal statement of policy by the British government stating that: His Majesty’s government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object… it was voted for, yet over the demanding objections of its only Jewish member, Edwin Montagu. [7] But the remainder all non-Jews, including many anti-Semites, tipped the scales.  They saw Zionism as a way to advance British imperialism and the Masonic New World Order [8].   Montagu, who was the then Secretary of State for India, told the PM Lloyd George: “All my life I have been trying to get out of the ghetto. You want to force me back there”.  An integrated Jew, Montagu regarded Judaism as only a religion, and viewed Zionism as a “mischievous political creed, untenable by any patriotic citizen of the United Kingdom”. [8]
During 1917 to 1922 when Lloyd George resigned, in excess of 25,000 people had received the OBE. Its reputed George amassed in his private bank account over £1.5 million pounds from the sales of honours, which is more like £150 million today, isn’t that right Mr Blair, Cameron and Baroness Thatcher and your party loans. [6]
Anyhow, so it is when you have this kind of Jacobs Ladder hierarchical awards system in place, and you give those lower ranking Freemasons a nice new bright star to pin on their chest, hat or arm, – like when you give a child a set of gold stars for good homework or award a dog a treat for doing a trick, then you’ll be surprised how willingly they become so much more subservient, and amazing what lengths some people are prepared to go to in order to please their master just to receive their reward. – For some, this need for ‘Scouts patches’, seems to become a kind of Idi Amin-syndrome, whereas the recipient of such an award, medallion or bright star wants as many as possible, so as they’re completely covered in them from head to tail, and a bit like when you see those members of the House of Lords, or royal families covered in medals, – yet whom haven’t even fought their way out of the London Underground system, let alone any wars.
It’s among these kinds of groups, who have helped form the brotherhood as to what it is today, and who are not much different from Hitler’s Gestapo or SS officers from WWII, as after all, they too were once just “ordinary men”.  Hitler knew all about the power of symbolism and this kind of reward system, so adopted it with overwhelming enthusiasm.  Out of the worlds estimated six million Freemasons, you could quite easily say at least 98% of those are 3rd Degree Freemasons, will never aspire beyond that level and who are in fact the foot soldiers for that other two cent or more, [of course I don’t know the precise figure, as there are 33° in the Scottish Rite for example, but still I can confidently say the majority are on the lower end scale of the degrees], – serving a cause so true to their hearts and indoctrinated beliefs, that they are the ones who did and do and shall carry out the orders, no matter how ghastly they are and against all those who are non-Freemason’s.
These are the ones, who will raid your homes, repossess your property, handcuff and arrest you, hold you illegally in police custody, then keep you in jail, – whilst transporting you back and forth to the courts by their Serco employees who are not much different than an HGV driver collecting his load directly from the abattoir’s, and straight to the shop shelf, – whilst the legal fraternity fight hand over fist to get a piece of you, so they in turn can stake their claim into legal aid system, knowing they’re in for some easy money.   [I’d close down the majority of our Crown Courts and include them to exiting prisons, thus saving billions in rents, transportation costs and staff.] These foot soldiers are the ones who will willingly place a cable tow around your neck, pull the trigger on their gun, whilst splattering your brains and head wide open, fill rooms and chambers with women and small children, then slowly release cyanide or carbon monoxide through shafts and the air-vents, as they laugh and watch the bodies simply drop like flies.
They’re the ones who have and will drop thousands of bombs on millions of innocent people, – people who have done absolutely nothing against anyone or anything in this world, – and simply because they were following the orders of their so called superiors, – who in turn were taking theirs in return for honours to be rewarded, the very same groups of people who make up the world’s illuminati cabals.  Who in turn specifically handpick, groom and sponsor their own politicians and world leaders, – including many other sorts of individuals who are also allotted positions of immense influence and power, thus allowing them to be able to strategically place their financial banking terrorists and owners of the military industrial complex of companies, whom between them siphon off trillions of pounds, dollars and Euro’s from the tax payers purse, – and the reason our world is periodically in recession and constantly at war.
As isn’t it funny how we’ve been sold the idea, that many children are so unruly at school that ex-military soldiers are being encouraged to join the education service on a fast-track hands-on qualification in teaching.  Though it doesn’t stop there, as the BBC’s Panorama programme in February 2011showed, many of these same kids, whom the majority showed no signs of anger or unruliness, and were in fact it was quite the opposite, as many were timid and shy and praised the army and sea cadets they were now encouraged and recruited to join, of helping them come out of their shell and stand up for themselves, i.e. be more aggressive.  And that’s the truth of the matter, as these kids are being trained up as the next generation to lose their, lives, limbs and families, whilst proudly showing their patches of reward, and medals they were awarded fighting other kids in faraway places, and who were wearing no more than a rag on their head and a pair of flip-flops as their only protection.
And it is these kinds of people we need to expose, not those kinds, those groups of secret societies whom clearly share the same self-serving political agendas as each other, and whose tentacles are spread far and wide, – and as a direct result, the consequences have been, and still are having a devastating effect on the rest of mankind and has done so for thousands of years, – though never quite as obvious and how it’s been in the last century, – and never as blatantly intense as it’s become in the years between 2001 to 2010.  Just watch this 2011 and beyond, see how more deliberately and unashamedly they will continue to subliminally reveal and expose themselves, – as believe it or not we too are being groomed and sucked into an inescapable vacuum that will lead us to major civil unrest and religious conflicts, thus accumulating to WWIII in the not too distant future, whilst in addition and in between this period of time we could likely see an increase in manmade introduced diseases and viruses, and as I said before even manmade floods, earthquakes or tsunami’s, – that is of course unless we can help stop it!
See, we’re all the same to these ruling elite of morally redundant bastards, – from whatever country they may come from, or religion they’re so-call proclaim to represent and believe in, it doesn’t matter, as we’re simply cannon fodder.  Their so called own people, are forever being egged on to fight and kill each other in their divide and rule philosophy that works time and time again the world over. – Peace to them, – is as devastating as war is to us.
When I refer to the Illuminati, I refer to those real true rulers of our planet, as to me there is no real difference between the occultist Black Noblite/Illuminati, than that of any other Freemason/Protestant, Jesuit/Catholic, Frankist/Zionist, Sufi/Islamic groups or fraternities and similar likewise organisations like those of the Greek system of the Alpha, Delta, Kappa collegiate fraternities, or members of the Rotarians, Odd Fellows and Shriners etc., as you’ll soon find out there all basically the same and linked by one single thread, that joins them all up together like a patchwork quilt.
So in order to make things easier to the reader and for me to write, – when I use the words Freemason, Masons, Masonic, Rotarian, or Alpha, Delta Kappa like people, then I’m afraid to say, but I’m putting them all in the same “Illuminati” boat, – my use of those words also means I am describing, or referring to anyone of the latter named group of organisations or fraternities I have just mentioned.
And if you want 99.09% proof how successful this Jacob Ladder carrot on stick syndrome truly works, then take this into consideration, – in excess of 3,000,000 other American people had and has access to the same classified come-secret [hardly a secret] diplomatic cables that US intelligence analyst Bradley Manning is accused of stealing and then uploading them to Wikileaks, thus making available to the public.  That’s right, around three million employees were and still are entrusted with this classified information, yet remain silent, as that’s how allegiant they are to their oaths, pledges and fraternities, – that no matter how wrong it is what they’ve been covering up, or how much in the “public interest” it might be to share this information, they’ll still end up taking their despicable little secrets to the grave with them.
Though it must be fair to say, that the fear of getting caught must also act as a deterrent, and perhaps is the reason why 23 year old Manning has been held in solitary confinement in a tiny cell for almost ten months, and which is without doubt in breach of his constitutional rights, and makes me laugh when you get the likes of Barak Obama and other members of his administration lecturing either the Chinese, Egyptian or Libyan authorities for doing exactly the same thing.   And accusing the countries of the Middle East as being barbaric, yet are considering whether to give Bradley Manning that little bit extra special treatment, by executing him!

Shrine on

f you have thought of Freemasons, Shriners, Rotarians or Lion Club members in a positive light because they do all those nice things for children, hospitals, and old people etc., then what I have to say will most probably burst your bubble.  The Bible says; “…that Satan walks to and fro on this earth masquerading as an ‘angel of light’- that many might be deceived”.  Again I reiterate, – I’m a non believer of the Bible, Koran or Torah and any other manmade devised or written religious books, so have no axe to grind, or any other religion to represent. – I simply want to highlight the hypocrites who use such books like the bible as their mask to deceive others.  Many people go into Freemasonry today believing that it is just a philanthropic organisation that does a lot of good work.  They see [1] advertisements for the Shrine or Great Ormond Street kind of hospitals and read about the retirement homes for the elderly Freemasons, – it’s alright for some!  But then again, it’s getting more like the old TV series of 1960’s The Prisoner, as not only do they have their own retirement homes, they also have whole villages specifically built with the Freemason in mind.  The symbol in the Prisoner, [1a] is a Penny Farthing bicycle, take a closer look, – and you’ll soon realise its meant represent the ‘all-seeing-eye’, – as in the Wedjat, eye of Horus. [1b] “I am not a number, I am a free man” is what No 6 played by Patrick McGoohan -The Prisoner, would shout-out.  The programme is full of Masonic references and occult meanings, even the gesture as if to say goodbye, was; “I’ll be seeing you”, – as the departing person would look through their linked index finger and thumb as they held it up to their eye, almost forming the ‘OK’ gesture, or is the 666 meaning?
Many view the Shriner’s as a fraternal organisation that’s a kind of an advanced boy scouts brigade.  One survey said that a lot of men get into it out of social reasons, their friends are in it, or they think it is a good place to network and do business, which for certain is true.  What Freemasonry is as claimed in their own books; “…is a revival of the ancient mystery religions of Egypt and Balbak, and from Persia and India”. – wrote Albert Pike in his book Morals and Dogma and Albert Mackey in his Encyclopaedia of Freemasonry says; “…that masonry is a religion and that every Masonic lodge is a temple of religion.  It appears many ‘Christians’ have joined this ‘religion’ not understanding how pagan and demonic it is”.
In the USA, when a Freemason gets to the highest degree of the Scottish rite or the York rite, he is then allowed to go into what is called the Shrine.  The Shriner’s are a predominately an American brotherhood, and I find their origins quite interesting.  The famous British comedian come magician Tommy Cooper who’s catchphrase was “Just like that…” – wore a red Fez as part of his act, my father has one which he brought back from Egypt where he served his National Service protecting the pipe insulations of the Suez canal during the 1950’s.  You may have seen the Shriner’s on TV, in newspapers or magazines whilst on parades wearing their red fezzes with the sword and crescent emblem on them. [Howard’s character out of Happy Days, with the Fonz plays a Shriner in the programme.] Here is their website address, [16a] your see all the links to other Masonic websites.
You may have heard about the Shrine Circus and the burn centres for children run by the Shriner’s, and as I have said it’s mainly an American/Canadian thing, whereas here in the UK and Europe we have Freemasons and groups like the Rotarians of Odd Fellows helping places such as children’s hospitals and charities etc.
Allah, Mohammad & the Bible, prior to the year 2000 [now a Master Mason is suffice], it was required that a person wishing to join the Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, [2] commonly known as Shriners and abbreviated A.A.O.N.M.S., had to be at least a 32nd Degree Mason of the Scottish Rite or had complete all the degrees of the York Rite.  Founded in 1870, the group adopted a Middle Eastern theme and soon established Temples meeting in Mosques.  [3] There “cover story”, is that the existing Freemasons wanted to set up a fraternity based on having fun, so William J. Florence, an actor and Freemason, while on tour in Marseilles, was invited to a party given by an “Arabian” diplomat.  At its conclusion, the guests became members of a secret society.  Florence took copious notes and drawings at his initial viewing and on two other occasions, once in Algiers and once in Cairo.  When he returned to New York in [3] 1870, the Shriners were formed and the rest is history.  More importantly “who” was the Arabian diplomat and what was their French, middle-eastern interests?  Fun fraternity my arse, sounds more like a precursor of the Muslim Brotherhood if anything, as they weren’t formed until 1928.
Remember we live in a world where political correctness has gone mad, many organisations and especially in today’s current climate of course try and wish to distance themselves from their origins.  As now you’ll regularly hear claims from Shriners who say; that despite “our theme”, the “Shrine” is in no way connected to Islam, and of course they would say that publicly wouldn’t they.  So why did they start out meeting in Mosques?  And not only that, what’s a temple?  A mosque is a building dedicated for Islamic worship, and of course a temple is a structure reserved for religious or spiritual activities, such as prayer and sacrifice, or analogous rites, but it’s hardly a “church”, in the Christian sense.  So what the Shriners did to try and distance themselves as much as they politically correctly could, was stop using the terms Temples and Mosques and adopted the word “Shrine” instead as this has an across the board meaning and helps mask perhaps whom they really are.
It’s been alleged once initiated or during the process, the candidate must now also take a blood oath and swear allegiance to “Allah as his god and Mohammed as his prophet”.  It could be argued that “Allah”, the Arabic for the Hebrew word for “Yahweh” – the God of Abraham, is also used by Arab Christians who use the word as most others would use the term “God” or “Lord”.  The Muslim concept of God [“Allah”] is different from the Judeo-Christian concept, but the term “Allah” itself doesn’t [or shouldn’t], have any negative connotations, though there’s no getting away from it where a Shriners allegiance lays, if he too has to state; “Mohammed as his prophet”, as part of his closing sentence and oath.

We know how touchy Freemasons and Shriners can get when their deepest inner secrets start getting revealed, and that they tend to go on the defensive, so rebuke most things a balderdash, as many have done on this kind of accusation.  So what I thought I’d do is take a closer look into the Shriners symbolism, then it might well make sense as to why they swear such an oath and why the accusation that they do exists. The Shriner is given a red fez with an Islamic sword and crescent [4] jewelled on the front of it.  This [the red like hat-fez, though may have been slightly different in style, as many wore a cloth wrapped around their heads as well, and could be argued as being similar to a turban], and originates from the 7th century Arabia when the Moslems/Muslims, under the leadership of Mohammed, slaughtered all Christians who would not bow down to Allah.  Despite my explanation as to the same meaning of the term Allah meaning God or Lord etc., there is a another meaning to “Allah”, which is ‘not’ another [generic] name given to God by Mohammed, as “Allah” is the tribal deity –‘the moon god’ of Mohammed; it was the name of the god in the tribe that Mohammed was born into.  That is why every mosque today has a crescent moon on the top of its spire, and why many Islamic nations include it on their flags.
Mohammed’s army of men, out to slaughter all the “infidels”, came to the city of Fez, in Morocco, and found a community of Christians.  After slaughtering all the Christians living there with their Islamic-style swords, they then allegedly took their fezzes and dipped them in the blood of the Christians, and wore the fezzes throughout the land glorying in their victory over Christianity.  As we know, Shriner’s wear a red fez with the Islamic sword and moon crescent.  So who can this be in reference to?   And as its their crest of honour, who is it symbolically honouring?  Certainly not the Christian faith that’s for sure, nor Judaism, and if anything it must be said it seems to show their allegiance to someone like Allah and Mohammed instead.
Many Freemasons, belong to, or at least have some kind affiliation to other similar oath taking and initiation kind of fraternities, with many of them starting off as a member of the Alpha, Delta, Kappa-Greek like organisation, then progressing throughout the Masonic affiliations.  During the 2010 Imperial Council Session, held in Toronto July 4th to the 8th, George A. Mitchell of Jordan Station, Ontario, Canada, was elected the Imperial Potentate of Shriners International, making him the highest-ranking Shriner in the world, [5] he’s the chairman of the Board Rameses Shriners, and his other Masonic affiliations include Adanac Lodge No 614, the Scottish Rite and York Rite bodies, Knights Templar, the Cabiri and the National Sojourners, Milwaukee Chapter No 27.  He’s a Past Master of the Lodge of Perfection No 616 and a member of Seymour York Rite College No185. Mitchell is also an honorary member of the Order of International Supreme Council of DeMolay International.  That makes at least nine Masonic affiliations, and even if you then divide that by only a third, so as to say that’s how many affiliations other Freemasons may too belong to, then you can quite clearly see how huge this outfit is, as 6,000, 000 becomes 18,000,000 “affiliated members”, yet how many Freemasons are in your family or close circle of friends?
And when I ask such a question, – as I realise it’s quite likely many a Freemason might decide to read this book, – my question is directed to ordinary members of the public, the majority of those people who have no friends, connections or affiliations with the Freemasons whatsoever.
It’s appears the Shriners overall affiliations are with all things Islamic, as here’s just an handful of lodge names: the Palestine Shriners, Moolah Shriners, El Jebel Shriners, Oasis Shriners, Yaarab Shriners, Murat Shriners, Kem Shriners, Arabia Shriners, Egypt Shriners, Wahabia Shriners, Bahia Shriners, Al Menah Shriners, Midian Shriners, Ismailia Shriners etc.  And as opposed to other organisation or groups who refer to their governing bodies, such as a board of directors or governors, etc., the Shriners call their leaders the “Divan”. – Divan or diwan was a high governmental body in a number of Islamic states, or its chief official.
As does the Mystic Order of Veiled Prophets of the Enchanted Realm [MOVPER] whose subordinate bodies are called Grottoes as opposed to lodges, and are a black Fez wearing organisation by and for Master Masons only, who wane less towards an Arabic theme like that of the Shriners, and more towards a Persian one.
The Order says of itself: “That while proclaiming the loyalty of its members to Masonry, makes no pretence of being a Masonic Order, nor does it claim to confer a Masonic degree.  Its membership is exclusively Masonic and its purpose is to supply the element of play such a way that work and play will be blended without marring the solid beauty of Masonry”. [6] Nevertheless, their affiliations, thus allegiance goes without saying.  The Grotto was founded in the summer of 1889 on September 10th by Freemason LeRoy Fairchild, who along with other members of Hamilton Lodge No 120 in Hamilton, New York, met to organise and hold informal meetings for fun and good fellowship, they decided to call the group the “Fairchild Deviltry Committee”.  The definition of “Deviltry” is: Reckless mischief, extreme cruelty, wickedness, evil magic and witchcraft.  It’s a fraternity that allows the normally formal and serious members of the Freemasons, to be able to let their hair down and go a bit wild, fair enough but why such a term, “deviltry”, surely there are many appropriate alternatives.
Members are distinguished by a black fez with a red tassel, which has the acronym MOVPER along the upper part, and a Mokanna head in the middle, with Bull Horns either side of the head, which is of Ben Allah or Ben Hashem, surnamed Mokanna.  It then has the name of the Grotto such as Azim which in that case is in the Bronx, New York.  Mokanna, meaning the “veiled or the one-eyed”, – was the founder of a religious sect in Khorasaan, Persia, in the 8th century, who pretended to be God incarnate. – ‘Bull worship’ and ideology is common throughout many ancient religions and cultures.  The worship of the ‘Sacred Bull’ [7] throughout the ancient world is most familiar to the Western world in the biblical text of the idol of the Golden Calf made by those left behind by Moses during a visit to the mountain peak and worshipped by the Hebrews in the wilderness of Mount Sinai-[Exodus].
The Canaanite deity Moloch [which they have a huge representation of at Bohemian Grove], was often depicted as a bull, and became a bull demon in Abrahamic traditions which are the monotheistic faiths emphasising and tracing their common origin to Abrahamor recognising a spiritual tradition identified with Abraham.  They are one of the three major divisions in comparative religion, along with Indian religions [Dharmic] and East Asian religions [Taoic]. [8] In the Classical period of Greece, the bull-horns, and other animals identified with deities, were separated as their agalma-which is a term for either a cult like statue, ornament, shrine, or object of worship, or even in something in which one takes delight, – it’s a kind of heraldic show-piece that signifies their supernatural presence.  The ladies auxiliary to the Grotto, are known as the Daughters of Mokanna, and their local lodges are referred to as “Caldrons”, and perhaps you can see why LeRoy Fairchild, preferred the term “Deviltry”.

Crescent of Betrayal: When plans for the Flight 93 National Memorial were unveiled in 2005, many critics, including the father of one of the passengers who died, protested that the memorial’s design was rife with Islamic symbolism.  Alec Rawls, author of Crescent of Betrayal: Dishonouring the Heroes, also claims that the memorial’s Field of Honour clearly resembles an Islamic Crescent and Star – and that the entire site is orientated toward Mecca, [9] and there’s no getting away from it, it most certainly does.

As of 2011 there’s around 340,000 or so Shriners who regularly meet in their 191 North American temples.  Though they’re Freemason’s as well, some seem to prefer to be seen distancing themselves from Freemasonry, to become Shriners first, who then dedicate their lives to overseeing and supporting their $13 billion network of 22 hospitals.  There has long been a conflict of interest, as the Shriner hospitals and the fraternity are both non-profit groups that are overseen by their own board of directors, with some board members sitting on both boards at the same time for unlimited terms.  On the 1st May 2008, court documents were recorded after the Shriners settled a lawsuit instead of pursuing two whistleblowers for defamation.
A Shriner can work his way up until he may be invited to join a “secret Shrine sub-group” called the Royal Order of Jesters, [ROJ] also registered as a non profit charity.  The ROJ claim that their organisations purpose is to “Spread of the gospel of merriment and mirth”, though the Order is also publicity shy.  For, example, a website made by one of its members was removed after intervention of the National Court of the Order.  The primary reason behind this was the desire of the [10] board to minimise to the extent possible the public exposure or public access to Jester information, their current website is as informative as a road sign showing Dead End.
They also claim they deserve charitable status because they built a museum inside their new $1.2 million dollar head quarters in Indianapolis.  Many people including a blogger called Sandy Frost on newsvine.com, has been on the case since February 2008 in trying to expose some of those connected to the ROJ, aka the Shriners, to illegal drugs, illegal child prostitution and hoodwinking the authorities into convincing them that they’re a charity.  Frost has written many articles on the subject, in where she asks: “Have the Jesters hustled the feds by convincing them that raising millions for partying is a legitimate exempt purpose because the IRS has had no problem classifying them as both a [11] non-profit fraternity and charity?”  She highlights that the ROJ’s executive director, Alex Rogers, submitted an application for a property exemption for their new headquarters, and how it was initially denied by the Marion County Assessor, because they were ‘not convinced’ that the ROJ qualified as a charity, based on the museum claims, under Indiana law.
However, the ROJ appealed to the Masonic controlled state board of tax appeals, and were granted the property tax exemption after convincing the state that they were an [12] attachment body of Freemasonry.
Then in March 2008, she describes how 19 Jesters form the ROJ were called as witnesses in a federal libel/slander lawsuit to testify about; “Their first hand knowledge of prostitution, minor prostitution, use of illegal drugs and/or entry into Indian reservations by Schair [plaintiff] and/or his customers”, [13] while on a ROJ sanctioned fishing trip to Brazil.  This article describes the testimony of underage girls provided to Brazilian authorities who were investigating the possibility that the girls were involved in child sex tourism.
One of the girls claimed she was 13 at the time and was left pregnant.  Three days later, on the 9th March, the Buffalo News ran: “…ex-judge target in interstate sex case”.  Reporter Dan Herbeck wrote: “A retired State Supreme Court justice resigned his post as a hearing officer as federal agents investigate his alleged role in taking a local massage parlour worker across state lines for purposes of prostitution.  FBI and US Border Patrol agents are investigating allegations that retired Judge Ronald H. Tills, his former law clerk and a retired police captain took the female massage parlour employee in a motor home to a gathering of members of a nationwide group called the Royal Order of Jesters, …ex-officer admits facilitating prostitution” on the 21st March 2008, Herbeck wrote: “A retired Lockport police captain pleaded guilty to transporting women over state lines on two occasions to work as prostitutes at gatherings of a fraternal club. John Trowbridge, 60, also admitted to a federal judge that he paid the women for sexual favours at a Wheatfield massage parlour.  His felony guilty plea could result in as much as 18 months in prison for him as well as serious legal trouble for a former state judge and a former state law-clerk who are under investigation. – Judge Tills travelled with a woman he jailed on prostitution charges, former state justice is a central figure in probe of activities of Buffalo Jesters” [14].

Like most things I cover, the articles and cases go on and on and I haven’t the room to cover it all, so Google the case to find out the full story, if you so wish, as articles are still being written about this and as recent as October 2010, when I last took a look into it.  I would also like to point out that most of what I write about doesn’t bother me in the slightest, if the sex orgies and drug taking is between two or more consenting adults, then who cares? – Because I don’t.  But what I don’t like is the idea that these sorts of hypocrites are getting away with conning us, so they need to be exposed.  I simply haven’t to space to cover anymore, so again, like I say check it out if you want to know more.
The Lions Club International, another fraternal organisation much like the Odd Fellows, the Woodmen of the World and the Rotarians, has 45,000 clubs and 1.35 million members.  They recently brought 3,000 volunteers together to build a playground for children of all abilities in California, USA, gave food to 60,000 people in a township in South Africa, and sent a team of eye surgeons to Honduras to treat more than 100 adults and children, [15] and this is regular kind of thing all these kinds of organisations do.  Now of course this is fantastic, but more importantly why haven’t these 1.35 million members done an Egyptian style of protest and descended upon their own governments seats of power, and “demand” change, a “real change” that will put a stop to all the current corruption by insisting new laws and regulations be put into place?  So instead of our communities being robbed of trillions of pounds, dollars and Euro’s, and having to rely on these kind of “goody two shoes” charities and handouts, – the “people’s own money” will be available in the “public purse” and on hand to our societies as and when needed.  “Change the system”, don’t play along with it, which again unwittingly the lower level members of these sorts of organisations such as the Lions Club, Rotarians, Odd Fellows and even the Freemasons, and what amounts to millions of members, – are all presently doing, – as a collective they could really “change the world” by making sure their governments change first, and remember those running our governments are all “Hosni Mubarak’s” and sitting on billions of pounds, dollars and Euro’s of “the peoples” money!
     “Secret societies have been in existence at least since the date of the earliest known writings.  Some have served utilitarian ends, others speculative; some have been visible, others invisible, except to government information services, which have always been aware of their existence. Each has based its existence on a secret, the secret of its mystery, purpose, direction, ritual or, more generally, its organisation. Ultimately, what has at all times and in all places distinguished secret societies from other associations is that the former are organised in a manner parallel to, but often above, official forms of government, whatever those forms may be”.  G. Raymond Laliberte. – The Canadian Encyclopaedia. [16]

The Illuminati, Satanism, drugs & the music Industry

The plan was to use both the Beatles and the Rolling Stones as the means to transform an entire generation into followers of the New Age, the Dawning of Aquarius followers who could help the Illuminati mould the future of our present day leaders, who in turn were then deploy to work within our schools, legal system and political arenas.  In his book, The Ultimate Evil, [1b] investigator author Maury Terry writes that between 1966 and 1967, a Satanic-group the Process Church Cult [PCC], sought to recruit the Rolling Stones and the Beatles.  He also goes on to implicate the PCC in the Charles Manson and Son of Sam [David Berkowitz] multiple murders.  A key link between the Rolling Stones and the PCC is Kenneth Anger, a follower of Aleister Crowley the founding father of modern day Satanism.  Anger, born in 1927, and a child Hollywood movie star, became a devoted disciple of Crowley.  Crowley died in 1947 allegedly due to complications of his heroin addiction, but before dying, Terry alleges he succeeded in establishing Satanic-covens in many US cities including Hollywood.  Anger now 84 years old, like Crowley, is a Magus and appears to be “the heir” to Crowley and a follower of Thelma.  Anger was 20 years old when Crowley died.  In that same year, 1947, Anger was already producing and directing films which variously merge surrealism with homoeroticism and the occult.  During 1966-1967, when the PCC is reported to be recruiting in London, Anger was also there.
Author Tony Sanchez – Keith Richard’s bodyguard, writes in Up and Down with the Rolling Stones, [1a] and describes that the Stones Mick Jagger, Keith Richard and their girlfriends Marianne Faithfull and Anita Pallenburg; listened spellbound as Anger turned them on to Crowley’s powers and ideas. Anger worked on a film dedicated to Aleister Crowley, called Lucifer Rising.  And Anger explains what the film is about: “Lucifer’ is a teenage rebel, so must be played by a teenage boy [1]Its type -casting.  I’m a pagan and the film is a real invocation of Lucifer. I’m much realer than von Stroheim. The film contained real black magicians, a real ceremony, real altars, real human blood, and a real magic circle consecrated with blood and cum”.  The film brought together the PCC, the Manson Family cult, and the Rolling Stones.  The music for the film was composed by Mick Jagger. Process Church Cult follower Marianne Faithfull went all the way to Egypt to participate in the film’s depiction of a Black Mass. The part of Lucifer was played by a guitarist of a California rock group, Bobby Beausoleil, a member of the Manson Family, and Anger’s homosexual lover.  A few months after filming started, Beausoleil returned to California and committed the first of the Manson family’s series of gruesome murders.  Beausoleil was later arrested and is now serving a life sentence in prison along with Manson.
Robert Kenneth Bobby Beausoleil was born the 6th November 1947 and is serving a life sentence for killing music teacher and fellow associate Gary Hinman on the 27th July 1969, and has been imprisoned since his arrest for that crime.  As described in the book Helter Skelter, Hinman was killed for money and property that Manson claimed Hinman owed the Family.
Accompanying Beausoleil that night were Susan Atkins and Mary Brunner, both later involved in other murders.  Beausoleil claims that Hinman supplied him with a batch of bad [or weak] mescaline [acts similarly to other psychedelic agents] that Beausoleil in turn sold to the Straight Satan’s motorcycle gang.  When the bikers demanded their money back, Beausoleil went to Hinman, who refused to pay.  While Beausoleil, Atkins, and Brunner held him captive in his own home in an attempt to convince him to refund the money, Manson [whom Beausoleil had phoned] showed up and sliced Hinman’s face and ear with a long knife or bayonet.  Beausoleil stabbed Hinman to death the next day.  Afterwards, he wrote: “Political piggy” on a wall in Hinman’s blood.  On the 6th August the1969, Beausoleil was arrested while sleeping in the back of one of Hinman’s vehicles.
Having lost his star performer, Anger then asked Mick Jagger to play Lucifer, and finally settled upon Anton La Vey, author of The Satanic Bible and head of the First Church of Satan, to play the part.  The film was released in 1969 with the title; Invocation to My Demon Brother.  In London, Anger had succeeded in recruiting the girlfriend of one of the Rolling Stones, Anita Pallenberg, who had met the Stones in 1965 to Satanism.  She immediately began sexual relations with three out of the five members of the group.  Anger, commenting on Anita, said; “I believe that Anita is, for want of a better word, a witch…”“The occult unit within the Stones was Keith and Anita…and Brian. You see, Brian was a witch too”. – Tony Sanchez writes of Pallenberg, and states: “She was obsessed with black magic and began to carry a string of garlic with her everywhere – even to bed – to ward off vampires. She also had a strange mysterious old shaker for holy water which she used for some of her rituals. Her ceremonies became increasingly secret, and she warned me never to interrupt her when she was working on a spell [3]. – In her bedroom she kept a huge, ornate carved chest, which she guarded so jealously that I assumed it was her drug stash. The house was empty one day, and I decided to take a peep inside, the drawers were filled with scraps of bone, wrinkled skin and fur from some strange animals” [4].

In 1980, the seventeen-year-old caretaker of Keith Richard’s New England estate was found shot to death in Anita Pallenberg’s bed. [4] The death, ruled as suicide, was with Pallenberg’s gun.  Richard’s house was located near the East Coast headquarters of the Process Church.  It’s been alleged, as I can’t seem to find any other references to the Midnite newspaper other than from the various sources connected to the writings of what I’m covering here, – so according to an article in the referred to English newspaper Midnite, a Connecticut police officer, Michael Passaro, who had responded to the suicide, reported strange singing from the woods a quarter mile from the Richard’s mansion.  The newspaper continues: There have been several bizarre satanic rituals in the area over the past five years.  A local reporter attributed the outbreak of occultism to rich people taking Acid.  In 1967 the Stones released their album titled; Their Satanic Majesties Request.  On the 27th February 1977 at Toronto’s Harbour Castle Hotel, Richard was found him in possession of 22 grams of heroin.  In 1994 Richards said of this image: “It’s something you drag around behind you like a long shadow … Even though that was nearly twenty years ago, you cannot convince some people that I’m not a mad drug addict. So I’ve still got that [image] in my baggage”. [4] In 2010, Peter Hitchens wrote of Richards that he is a ‘...capering streak of living gristle who ought to be exhibited as a warning to the young of what drugs can do to you even if you’re lucky enough not to choke on your own vomit’ [5].
Though it must be said he’s a superb guitarist, and considering his 68 now, it’s amazing he’s still a living piece of gristle!

One thing for certain around this particular time and among these people quoted, Satanism, the occult and drugs were no doubt top of the agenda, though to me the biggest satanic thing being around, was and still is that of the devils dust itself; heroin.  Crowley proudly named himself: The Great Beast, and was one of the first Westerners to seriously study Buddhism and Yoga.  He radically redesigned the traditional Tarot card, thus the Crowley deck was born.  You could say since the 60’s and to date, Crowley has been rediscovered, and in the past he’s been reinterpreted often by certain groups, such as the “Beats”, i.e. The Beat Generation were a group of American writers who came to prominence in the 1950’s, mainly because of their cultural modern day experiences that they wrote about and inspired them.  Later on they were sometimes called beatniks, and where central elements of beat culture include a rejection of mainstream values, the experimentation with drugs and alternate forms of sexuality, and an interest in Eastern religions.
In 2002, a BBC poll described Crowley as being the seventy-third greatest Briton of all time, whilst he has influenced, and been refer to by numerous writers, musicians and film-makers including Alan Moore, Ozzy Osbourne, Jimmy Page, David Bowie, Kenneth Anger, and who according to Anger, the greatest living magician; Harry Everett Smith, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin and the Beatles.  He has also been cited as a key influence on many later esoteric groups and individuals, including figures like Kenneth Grant a British occultist and head of the magical order previously known as the Typhonian Ordo Templi Orientis, but which is now referred to as the Typhonian Order.
The already mentioned father of Wicca-Gerald Gardner, and to some degree artist Austin Osman Spare who developed distinctive magical techniques including automatic writing, automatic drawing and sigilisation, i.e. signs and symbols that are supposed to have magical powers.
Among other admirers of Crowley are and have been many Freemasons, hippies, punks and supporters of industrial culture, and even more so today by Goths, and followers of the controversial rock singer Marilyn Manson, a stage name formed from the names of actress Marilyn Monroe and convicted murderer Charles Manson.  On the 3rd April 2002, Maria St. John filed in Los Angeles Superior Court accusing Marilyn Manson of providing her adult daughter, Jennifer Syme, with cocaine and instructing her to drive while under the influence.
On August 2, 2007, former band member Stephen-Pogo/Madonna-Wayne-Gacy-Bier filed a lawsuit against Manson for unpaid partnership proceeds; seeking $20 million in back pay.  Several details from the case was leaked to the press, and in November 2007, additional papers were filed saying that Manson purchased a child’s skeleton and masks made of human skin.  He also allegedly bought stuffed animals, such as a grizzly bear and two baboons and a collection of Nazi memorabilia. Crowley has become a perennial icon of counter-cultural rebellion, and the Sunday Times named him one of their 1000 makers of the Twentieth Century.
In 1967 the Beatles included him on the people we like cover of Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, in 1967.  The album contains an alleged fantasised version of an LSD trip, called Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, or L.S.D. for short.  Though it’s possible there’s a double hidden meaning of the lyrics, and more likely in reference of Lucifer, as in ‘Lucifer in the sky with the diamonds’, Venus is otherwise called the Jewel in the Sky, and also known by many Satanists as Lucifer.
The sound in the loop of this track is also the subject of much controversy, being widely interpreted as some kind of secret message.  McCartney later told his biographer Barry Miles that in the summer of 1967 a group of kids came up to him complaining about a lewd message hidden in it when played backwards.  He told them: “You’re wrong it’s actually just, it really couldn’t be any other…”  So he took them to his house to play the record backwards to them, and it turned out that the passage sounded very much like: “We’ll fuck you like Superman”.  McCartney recounted to Miles that his immediate reaction had been: “Oh my God!” It has also been interpreted as: “Will Paul come back as Superman?”  Though I’m not sure of those interpretations, as I too have heard it, and sounds more like: “We will fuck you – Mannish, – Superman”.
The Beatles album was released 20 years after Crowley’s death in 1947, and its title song began with the lyrics: “It was twenty years ago today…Sgt Pepper taught the band to play” probably has reference to Crowley, as I’ve said considering on the front of the album’s cover features a picture of Aleister Crowley, alongside Marlene Dietrich, Carl Gustav Jung, W.C. Fields, Diana Dors, Elvis Presley, James Dean, Bob Dylan, Marilyn Monroe and many other famous people, the album to date has sold over 32 million copies worldwide.  Though for some odd reason it’s been said Sgt Pepper is linked to Pete Best’s, [the original drummer before Ringo Star], uncle who served during the WWII, and whom Lennon wore his medals on the front cover, though that wouldn’t fit in with the, “…it was twenty years ago today…” [6]
Led Zeppelin’s guitarist, Jimmy Page bought Crowley’s house of horrors Boleskine, located on Loch Ness, where allegedly Crowley performed his satanic-magick, including blood sacrifices.  Crowley was buried inside a dark chamber in Boleskine. Crowley’s most famous teaching was; “Do what thou wilt shalt be the whole of the law”.  Page had inscribed in the vinyl on Zeppelin’s Third album, Led Zeppelin III, “Do what thou wilt. So mete it Be” [7].  Many of their songs are fantastically mesmerising, with mystical meanings and references to the occult throughout, and have Masonic undertones in their songs such as Stairway to Heaven and the Battle of Evermore etc. Ozzy Osbourne once confessed in an interview: “I really wish I knew why I’ve done some of the things I’ve done over the years. I don’t know if I’m a medium for some outside source.  Whatever it is, frankly, I hope it’s not what I think it is – Satan”. [1]Hit Parader, Feb., 1978, p.24.
Jim Morrison, superstar of The Doors, died mysteriously on the 3rd July1971 was deeply involved in the occult.  Morrison married his wife in Wicca ceremony, where they stood inside a pentagram and drank one another’s blood.  Morrison said: “I met the Spirit of Music, an appearance of the devil in a Venice canal. Running, I saw a Satan, or Satyr [Pan], moving beside me, a fleshly shadow of my secret mind…”The Lost Writings of Jim Morrison, p. 36-38.   Ray Manaxrek of The Doors says of Morrison: “He was not a performer.  He was not an entertainer.  He was not a showman.  He was a shaman.  He was possessed”.  “While [Jim Morrison] he was staying at the Chateau Marmont, he spent a few wild nights with a buxom neighbour…, once waking up in a tangle of bloody sheets after they shared champagne glasses of each other’s blood”. – Pamela Des Barres, Rock Bottom, p. 208.  It’s alleged many other rock artists studied Crowley such as: my old mate Marc Bolan, David Bowie, Sting etc.

Alongside the introduction of hallucinogenic drugs in 1967, you also saw the beginning of mass, open-air rock concerts, where in the following two years over four million predominately young people attended a series of almost a dozen of these kinds of festivals, and where many became “guinea-pigs” of an allegedly planned wide-scale drug experiment.  Mind blowing and destroying, if badly mixed or made hallucinogenic drugs such as PCP, STP and LSD, – that you could say had been heavily endorsed by the Beatles Sgt Peppers album, were freely distributed at these kinds of concerts.  When in turn those millions would then return to their home towns and become messengers and advocates of the new drug culture, or what came to be called the New Age. – The First Annual Monterey International Pop Festival was the first rock festival where over 100,000 youngsters attended.
It’s alleged the real purpose of festival was the widespread distribution of new hallucinogenic drugs such as LSD, and where obviously thousands of young teenagers were introduced to these new kinds of drugs.  As was hundreds of thousands of us introduced to “E’s” Ecstasy/MDMA during the late 1980’s “Rave Scene”, and which is as popular to today as it was back then.  Experimentation with LSD began in the early sixties, in the Haight-Ashbury section of San Francisco.  The project was run by a joint CIA-British intelligence task force under the codename Project MK-Ultra [1] Part of the project called for the free distribution of 5,000 tablets of LSD through a commune known as Ken Kesey’s Merry Pranksters.  LSD’s after-effects were then closely studied.  In The Playboy Interviews with John Lennon & Yoko Ono, by David Sheff & G. Barry Golson, on p. 123 Lennon says: “We must always remember to thank the CIA and the army for LSD, by the way.  That’s what people forget…”
Kesey had been convicted for drug dealing, and became famous for driving around California in a painted-up bus with his commune, the Merry Pranksters, allegedly distributing LSD-laced Kool-Aid to the unsuspecting.  Kersey is best known for his novel; One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest [1962] [8].  To us Brit’s and Europeans, Kool-Aid is a brand of flavoured drink mix owned by the Kraft Foods Company, and dates back to 1927.  The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test is a work of literary journalism by Tom Wolfe depicting the life of Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters.  And then following on from Kesey, the term: “Drinking the Kool-Aid” [9] is a phrase and metaphor, used in the US, that means to become a firm believer in something, to accept an argument or philosophy wholeheartedly or blindly without critical examination. The term originated with the November 1978 Jonestown Massacre, where members of the Peoples Temple were said to have committed suicide by drinking Kool-Aid laced with cyanide.

The effects of LSD, which I too have taken on numerous occasions, can make some people psychotic, along with the inability to understand reality, and you can get incredible fits of laughter, and, or experience wild hallucinations, like the time I once thought I was being chased by wire wool Brillo cleaning pad!  For many, this psychosis can be termed a bad trip, which could, and has led to feelings of suicide.  One of my friends was convinced he could fly when he decided to jump off the third floor of a building, as he crashed to the ground, he was then run over by a passing car.  He amazingly lived, but is now a confined to wheelchair as a paraplegic. When someone is given LSD without their knowledge, the psychosis – producing capabilities of the drug are tenfold, and it’s possible the victim will be left with permanent brain damage.  Another bad side-effect is called a ‘flash-back’, whereas you can momentarily forget where you are, or what you’re even doing.
One Hell’s Angel fellow I knew of, had been taking LSD for a few days on the trot, and a couple of days later, the effects had worn off, and he was speeding down the motorway with a girlfriend on the back.  All of a sudden he simply stepped off his motorcycle, he body was tossed and spun all over the road, as he smashed his body on the ground, – he’s girlfriend was tragically killed.  When he came to in the hospital, he was asked what did he remember of the accident, he said absolutely nothing, other than he thought he had pulled up and stopped at the kerb, and decided to get off his bike and buy a packet of cigarettes.  The effects of LSD, and according to the strength of the drug, can stay in your system for up to three days of more.
Back in the mid 1980’s, I was on remand in Wormwood Scrubs Prison, in South London.  There were five or six members from a Hells Angels gang, who were also on remand for chopping up and killing some rival from another gang.  Word got around the jail that the Hells Angels had got some acid into the prison, and they were giving it away free to anyone who fancied a trip that weekend.  I willing accepted, as did around sixty other prisoners on my wing.  It was a mad few days that followed.  I was banged up with a bloke who refused to participate, so there we were, in a cell approximately 9ft x 8 ft with two beds and two cabinets in, which leaves an aisle of about 2ft wide x 9ft long, as the sole room to pace up and down on.  It was the strongest acid I have ever taken, stronger than Superman tabs, microdots and even window-pains of that time.  The acid we were taking was homemade by the Hells Angels, it was sent in under the guise of being an artist painting pad.  One of the sheets around 14” x 7” had been submerged into the LSD, and it was this impregnated sheet, that was then cut up into tiny tabs, no more than 5mm square.
Some of the prisoners really had bad trips and freaked out, many who had taken acid before, knew what to expect, but must of still be surprised by its strength.  I relatively had a bad trip, because I was convinced the cell was infested with cockroaches, which most of the cells were anyway, but in this instance, they where the size of rats, and I could see hundreds of them, crawling all over the floor and up the walls.  I was like the maid in the cartoon Tom and Jerry, when she starts screaming out and stands on top of a stool at the sight of Jerry the mouse.  I was standing up on my bed, and shouting out loud: “Get the fuck-out of here”, to these cockroaches who in my mind’s eye were scurrying about the floor, walls and now the ceiling, though obviously they weren’t really there, – yet were as real as could be.  I’m not even sure how long that trip lasted, the bloke I was sharing the cell, in some respects wished he had taken a trip as well, because I was driving him mad with my incessant rambling and other crazy antics, like dancing and singing all night long.
The screws-prison officers wouldn’t dare come onto the wing for almost three days, as all they could see were droves of demented prisoners roaming around the wing.  It was a funny time and I don’t regret the experience, though I really don’t recommend taking these sorts of drugs if your mind is not so clear or too strong to begin with.

John Phillips from the Mommas and the Papas group, organised the Monterey festival, Phillips own history and experimentation with drugs is widely known, and he was closely tied in with a Satanist network among who were Charles Manson, Roman Polanski, Bobby Beausoleil and Kenneth Anger.  In September 2009, John Phillips daughter Mackenzie Phillips claimed in a book, High on Arrival, that she and her father had a ten-year incestuous relationship [10] [10a].
She stated that the relationship began when she was 18 years old in 1979, after Phillips raped her while they were both under the influence of heavy narcotics on the eve of her first marriage, and was more of the sort of thing the Roman Emperor Caligula would get up to, as he used it as a form of bestowing “honour”, and showing his real power.
Phillips appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show [10] on the 23rd September 2009 in which she told Winfrey that her father injected her with cocaine and heroin, known as speed-balling, which has attributed to the deaths of many people and even celebrities such as John Belushi and River Phoenix died this way.  According to Phillips, the incestuous relationship ended when she became pregnant and did not know who had fathered the child.  These doubts resulted in an abortion, which her father paid for, “…and I never let him touch me again”.  Yet his first and second wife, and some other family members, say they don’t believe what Mackenzie said about her father.  Though I find those denials even harder to believe, – as why on earth would she make up such a sickening claim about her own father if it wasn’t true?  It’s hardly the sort of thing you’d boast about.  And anyhow, that kind of thing would’ve been done discreetly, and it was obviously with Mackenzie’s own consent, and until she said no.  So why does anyone else think, they would’ve known about it in the first place?

A board of directors were appointed by Phillips to promote and finance the concert, the board included Andrew Oldham [the Rolling Stones manager], Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney and record producer Terry Melcher, the son of Doris Day.  It was the first time that an American audience had seen The Who and Jimi Hendrix.  At the conclusion of their act, The Who, were apparently stoned out their heads, and destroyed all their equipment, whilst Hendrix simulated wanking off his guitar.  There was massive open use of drugs, and author Robert Santelli, in his book, Aquarius Rising, writes: “LSD was in abundance at Monterey. Tabs of ‘Monterey Purple’ were literally given to anyone wishing to experiment a little.  The police made no arrests, and set a precedent for future outdoor concerts, as there was a larger scheme in operation tied into MK-Ultra project, involving Phillips, along with CIA agents such as Ken Kesey and Timothy Leary”.  At Stanford in 1959, Kesey volunteered to take part in a CIA-financed study named Project MKULTRA at the Menlo Park Veterans Hospital.
The project studied the effects of psychoactive drugs, particularly LSD, psilocybin, mescaline, cocaine, AMT and DMT on people.  He frequently entertained friends and many others with parties he called Acid Tests involving music [such as Kesey’s favourite band, The Warlocks, later known as the Grateful Dead], black lights, fluorescent paint, strobes and other psychedelic effects, and of course, LSD.  And it could be argued, that due to this lifestyle, it warranted Kersey to be able to write: One flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest in the first place.  The song San Francisco which sold over 5 million copies, and Phillips had written the music to it, and called for the youth throughout the country to come to “…San Francisco with flowers in their hair”.  The song acted a rallying cry to tens of thousands who came flooding into San Francisco in the Summer of Love in 1968 to join the new hippie movement, some who became the prey to the likes of Charles Manson, who recruited his cult-family exclusively from misfits and runaway youngsters.  Manson has been portrayed as a crazed lone-wolf who had hypnotic power over his Family [11].  Though in reality, Manson was well-known to a whole network of Hollywood actors, actresses, promoters, partners and rock stars, and was providing sex and drugs to many of them.
In John Phillips autobiography: Papa John, he tells of an invitation he received to join Terry Melcher and Beach Boy member Dennis Wilson, at Wilson’s mansion.  Wilson said: “This guy Charlie’s here with all these great-looking chicks. He plays guitar and he’s a real wild guy. He has all these chicks hanging out like servants. You can come over and just screw any of them you want.  It’s a great party”.  Manson’s entire “Family” moved into the Beach Boys mansion for nearly a year.  On Sunday, the 10th August 1969, Manson sent four members of his cult for their last visit to Melcher’s house.  This time Melcher wasn’t there, but the actress Sharon Tate, wife of movie director Roman Polanski, and three others were.  When the group left, Tate and the others had been savagely mutilated and murdered.  As for Phillips, in June 1980, he was arrested for running a large-scale drug wholesaling operation.

     Time magazine termed the Woodstock Music and Art Fair; concert as an Aquarian Festival and history’s largest happening.  The Aquarian age signifies the Age of Pisces, – as the age of Christ comes to an end.  There are twelve astrological ages corresponding to the twelve zodiacal signs in western astrology.  The Age of Aquarius is either the current or new age in the cycle of astrological ages.  Each astrological age is approximately 2,150 years-long on average, but there are various methods of calculating this length that may yield longer or shorter time spans depending upon the technique used.  Unlike sun-sign astrology where the first sign is Aries, followed by Taurus, Gemini, etc. and then Aquarius and Pisces, whereupon the cycle returns to Aries and through the zodiacal signs again, the astrological ages proceed in the opposite direction or order – normally termed in retrograde.  Therefore, the Age of Aquarius follows the Age of Pisces.  Many astrologers believe that the Age of Aquarius has arrived recently or will arrive in the near future.  On the other hand, some believe that the Age of Aquarius arrived up to five centuries ago, or will not start until six centuries from now, so in other words no one has a clue and it’s all guess work. [12]

Woodstock attracted almost 250,000 people who gathered to get off their faces, and where many were in isolated locations, immersed in mud and filth, pumped with psychedelic drugs, and kept awake continuously for three straight days or more, and all with the full complicity of the FBI and government officials.  Though again the same could be said about Glastonbury, that’s one of the reasons it’s all fenced in.  Obviously it’s also to keep those working class scumbags out, as most attendees are more middleclass, and at almost £200 per ticket you can understand why.  But by having fences, it keeps those secured in, as well as keeping the others out.  With your own security employed, then you don’t need the police to get involved, and in a sense it’s a hassle free weekend to get rat-arsed and off your face.
Of course the organisers say drugs will not be tolerated, as do the police who even have sniffer dogs at certain times and places, – but hey, come on for fucks sake, – this is Glastonbury!  It’s a bit like going to the circus and seeing no clowns.  On the 25th June 2010 two men were being arrested after police stopped a vehicle on the way to the Glastonbury Festival carrying drugs with a street value of more than £100,000 [13].   Over 100,000 Class C tablets were seized after police stopped the vehicle as it drove south on the M5 near Dursley, Gloucestershire, – and they’re the ‘two’ that got caught!
Glastonbury is famous for its Pyramid stage, at night you can see the apex fully illuminated, and know days they have a laser beam coming straight through the centre of the apex and up into the night sky.  The first Pyramid Stage was constructed by Bill Harkin and his crew in 1971 out of scaffolding, expanded metal and plastic sheeting.  The structure was built close to the Glastonbury Abbey/Stonehenge Ley-line’s and over the site of a blind spring.  The pyramid shape is a very powerful structure, the apex of which draws energy up and transmits it still further while the energy from the stars and sun are attracted to it and drawn down.  Those that saw the original Pyramid at night likened it to a diamond transmitting almost tangible energy as people danced on the stage.  In 1981 a permanent structure doubling as a cowshed and animal food-store during the winter months was built on the same site using redundant telegraph poles and surplus box section iron sheets form the Ministry of Defence.
This Pyramid grew to symbolise the magic of Glastonbury Festival before it famously burned down in 1994, shortly before the Festival.  In 2000 the Phoenix rose from the ashes and a glittering 100ft steel structure was erected with a massive footprint of 40m x 40m – four times larger than its previous incarnation.  Four kilometres of steel tubing, weighing over 40 tonnes were used in the build, and all materials and processes used passed a Greenpeace environmental audit.  This current structure was designed and built by local Pilton villager Bill Burroughs and is based on the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt [14].   It’s the most instantly recognised festival stage in the world, and for 40 years this summer 2011, those who have been going to Glastonbury and dancing and singing in front of the Pyramid, are participating in a occult pagan ritual whether they know it or not, and when your off your face as many of them are, who gives a toss?  Who said the Illuminati hasn’t got a finger in every pie.  Isn’t that right Mr Athelstan Joseph Michael Eavis, when in 1969 Eavis and his second wife Jean Hayball visited the Bath Festival of Blues, – inspired by seeing the performance of Led Zeppelin, they hosted a free festival the following year.  This developed into the Glastonbury Festival as it is known today.

Security for the Woodstock concert was provided by a hippie commune trained in the mass distribution of LSD.  Once again, it would be the networks of British military intelligence which would be the initiators. Woodstock was the brain child of Artie Kornfeld, the director of EMI’s Capitol Record’s, Contemporary Projects Division. The original funding was provided by the heir of a large Pennsylvania-based pharmaceutical company, John Roberts, and two other partners.  It was another pharmaceutical company, the Swiss-based Sandoz Laboratories, which had first synthesised LSD.  Roberts would later be accused of using his company for the mass drugging of the attendees.  Joel Rosenman, one of the three partners, writes, as the concert neared: ‘Food and water were clearly going to be in short supply, sanitary facilities overtaxed, tempers short, drugs overabundant. Worst of all, there was no way for anyone who wanted to, to leave.  Sitting in your own excrement was actually part of the plan’, as John Roberts jokingly wrote: “We’re going to hand out bananas at the gate to bind our patrons”.
A hippie commune called the Hog Farm, had a special role at Woodstock.  The Hog Farm was led by a man nicknamed Wavy Graver, who was a former member of Ken Kesey’s CIA-MK-Ultra operation, the Merry Pranksters.  Communes like the Hog Farm were commonly found in the remote parts of California and served as the breeding grounds for occult cults, as well as terrorist groups.  Members of these communes continually interchanged with other communes and were the recruiting grounds for the Process Church Cult and Charles Manson.  Hog Farm member Diane Lake was a member of Charles Manson’s Family, at the time of the massacre of Sharon Tate and her guests. [1]
On the 14th August 1969, one day before the scheduled opening, the entire festival security force, comprised of 350 off-duty New York City cops, pulled out.  A spokesman for the New York police claimed that no official arrangement was ever made with the city, a claim the promoters vehemently denied.   The following day the 15th August 1969 in the New York Times, the head of Woodstock’s security said: “Now I don’t have any security at all. I’ve been struck. We’re having the biggest collection of kids there’s ever been in this country without any police protection”.  Hog Farm was put in charge of security.  John Roberts openly admitted that he was well aware of the Hog Farm’s connection to drug distribution, and writes: “Their fee was simply transportation to and from the festival… a peace-keeping force that looked, talked, and smelled like the crowd would be both highly credible and highly effective… and the most important, they were wise in the ways of drugs, knowing good acid from bad, good trips from bummers, good medicine from poison, etc.”. [11]
The Hog Farm at the time was living in New Mexico’s mountains.  Roberts chartered a Boeing 727, at a cost of $17,000, and flew 100 of them to New York.  Roberts also writes that; “…he was meeting continuously with the FBI up to and including one day before the start of the concert, and had their full cooperation”.  Two days before the scheduled start of the concert, 50,000 youngsters had already arrived in Woodstock.  Drugs immediately began to circulate.  Many people brought their babies, as Roberts says: “…even they were drugged…, that at a nearby lake, the tots swam naked, smoked grass, and got into the music”.  A poll conducted at the festival by the New York Times showed that 99 percent of those attending were using marijuana.  The use of marijuana was not the worst.
Following the design of the original MK-Ultra project, the mass distribution of LSD came next, much of it in LSD-laced Coca Cola, as Kesey’s Pranksters had done five years earlier.  Roberts jokingly relates the following, “a particularly abrasive cop, had been handed an LSD-spiked Coke while directing traffic. Long after all automobiles in the area had congealed to a standstill, the hardhat was still out on the road waving them on, finally they led him away”.  [1] The New York Times also reported: ‘Tonight, a festival announcer warned from the stage, that ‘badly manufactured acid’, was being circulated.  He said: You aren’t taking poison acid. The acid’s not poison.  It’s just badly manufactured acid.  You are not going to die…. So if you think you’ve taken poison, you haven’t. But if you’re worried, just take half a tablet.’  The advice, to nearly 500,000 people, just take half a tablet was given by none other than MK-Ultra agent Wavy Gravy.  With a growing medical emergency on hand, a call went out to New York City for emergency medical personnel.  Over 50 doctors and nurses were flown in.  By the end of Woodstock, a total of 5,000 medical cases were reported.

It’s long been rumoured that the death of Meredith Hunter that took place during a Stones concert at the Altamont speedway track, just outside San Francisco, – was a human sacrifice, as it’s been alleged the audience were whipped into a frenzy, in open praise of the Devil, and what some have since termed a Satanic orgy, when Mick Jagger played the part of Lucifer in one of the bands new songs.  At its conclusion, four people were dead and dozens beaten and injured.  Well in excess of 400,000 people attended the Altamont concert with far less preparation than even Woodstock.  Food and water was virtually unavailable, though drugs of course were in abundance. [1]
Following up on what Tony Sanchez describes in his book Up and Down with the Rolling Stones, the scene as people gathered at Altamont: “By midmorning there were more than a quarter of a million people milling around, and things were becoming chaotic. There was a lot of bad acid [LSD-DP] around, and people were freaking out all over the place. Everybody was getting stoned out of his skull to pass the long hours before the music was to start-Mexican grass, cheap California wine, amphetamines…, By midday virtually everyone was tripping…A man was almost killed as he tried to fly from a speedway bridge-another acid case [16].  [Like I’ve mentioned before, - this is exactly what a mate of mine tried to do].  On the other side of the site a young guy screamed for help as he fell into the deep waters of a drainage canal. The stoned-out freaks looked on bemused as he sank beneath the surface. No one seemed sure if he had been real or a hallucination. It didn’t matter anymore anyway, he was dead. Elsewhere doctors were kept busy delivering babies to girls giving hysterical premature birth.” – Tony Sanchez, Up and Down with the Rolling Stones, p.195.
The Stones had hired the Hells Angels to act as security guards for the concert for a reported $500 worth of free beer, though their real payment, however, was in drug sales.  When the festival did open, the crowd of nearly half a million people waited for more than one and a half hours for the Stones to appear.  It was only when nightfall arrived, that the group finally came on stage.  Mick Jagger was imitating Lucifer, and was dressed in a satin cape which glowed red under the spotlights.  Sanchez next describes what he calls a pre-planned satanic ritual.  As the group began playing, strangely several of the kids were stripping off their clothes and crawling to the stage as if it were a high altar, there to offer themselves as victims for the boots and pool cues of the Hells Angels. The more they were beaten and bloodied, the more they were impelled, as if by some supernatural force, to offer themselves as human sacrifices to these agents of Satan. -Tony Sanchez, Up and Down with the Rolling Stones, p.199.
Sanchez goes on to say that the Stones had just released; Sympathy for the Devil, which quickly reached number one in the US charts.  The lyric’s has Mick Jagger introducing himself as Lucifer, and as soon as he began to sing it at Altamont, the entire audience rose up and began going mental in a wild frenzy of crazed dancing.  The Hells Angels security guards tooled-up with pool cues, attempted to keep order whilst having a booze, – smoking a spliff and dropping to odd acid tab here and there.
When at one point a black, 18-year-old Stones fan named Meredith Hunter rushed the stage, just as the band finished playing Under My Thumb, and not the widely miss-quoted Sympathy for the Devil, and it was here Hunter was beaten back, though he rushed forward again, and was pushed back again, pulling out a gun, – and it’s alleged he shot a Hells Angel in the arm.
Tony Sanchez was an eyewitness, and described the ensuing scene thus: “Five more Angels came crashing to the aid of their buddy, while Meredith tried to run off through the packed crowd.  An Angel caught him by the arm and brought down a sheath knife hard in the black man’s back… then the Angels were upon him like a pack of wolves.  One tore the gun from his hand, another stabbed him in the face and still another stabbed him repeatedly, insanely, in the back until his knees buckled.”  When the Angels finished with Hunter, several people tried to come to his aid, but an Angel stood guard over the motionless body. “Don’t touch him,” he said menacingly. “He’s going to die anyway, so just let him die.” And it’s because of this attitude, the name of the single Sympathy for the Devil, their other song Gimme Shelter and the name of their album; Let it Bleed that gave rise to the speculation that Meredith Hunters death was some kind of “human sacrifice”, and in some respects it could be viewed that way.

However, I’ve seen the film footage of this incident, and pulling a gun out in the middle of a concert crowd, in front of the stage, and even more stupidly directly in front of a group of raving lunatic Hells Angels, – then I think it could be argued it was more like a case of “self sacrifice”, as opposed to a ‘human sacfrice’, that’s been portrayed as being what happened here.  Another thing I observed of the film footage, – is that it doesn’t show Hunter shooting anyone.  The entire group watched from the stage as Meredith Hunter was killed right before them, though it must be said, Jagger looked genuinely shocked to me, but then again he is a good actor.  In addition, incredibly, the entire murder was filmed by a film crew hired to film the concert.
Shortly thereafter the film was released throughout the country with the title of a Rolling Stone’s song, Gimme Shelter.  In a book; The Ultimate Evil, journalist Maury Terry tells how satanic cults circulate among themselves snuff films of their human sacrifices.  Terry relates that one of the six Son of Sam murders in New York City was actually filmed from a nearby parked van.   Gimme Shelter first appeared as the opening track on the band’s 1969 album Let It Bleed.  And the 1995 documentary film was a box-office hit, which also showed several other actual executions of people condemned to death.

David Richard Berkowitz born 1st June 1953, also known as Son of Sam and the .44 Calibre Killer is an American serial killer and arsonist whose crimes terrorised New York City from July 1976 until his arrest in August 1977.  After consulting with several psychiatrists, police released a psychological profile of their suspect on the 26th May 1977.  He was described as neurotic and probably suffering from paranoid schizophrenia and believed himself to be a victim of demonic possession.  Shortly after his arrest in August 1977, Berkowitz confessed to killing 6 people and wounding several others in the course of eight shootings during that period.  He has been imprisoned for these crimes since 1977.  Berkowitz subsequently claimed that he was commanded to kill by a demon possessed in his neighbour’s dog, and later amended his confession to claim he was the shooter in only two incidents, personally killing three people and wounding a fourth.  The other victims were killed, Berkowitz claimed, by members of a violent satanic cult of which he was a member.  He claims that he joined a cult in the spring of 1975.  Initially, he said, the group was involved in harmless activities, such as séances and fortune telling.  Gradually, however, Berkowitz claimed that the group introduced him to drug use, sadistic pornography and violent crime. [17]

On the 12th June 1978, he was sentenced to six life sentences in prison for the murders, making his maximum term 365 years.  He was first imprisoned at the Attica Correctional Facility, and was also given additional terms for assault and attempted murder.  In 1979, there was an attempt on Berkowitz’s life. He refused to identify the person[s] who had attacked him with a knife, but suggested that the act was directed by the cult he once belonged to.  He bears a permanent scar from the wound that took 52 stitches.  In 1987, Berkowitz became a born again Christian in prison.  [I’m not sure what’s more worrying!]  According to his personal testimony, his moment of conversion occurred after reading Psalm 34:6 from a Gideon’s Pocket Testament Bible given to him by a fellow inmate.  In the same testimony, he stated that his obsession with and heavy involvement in the occult played a major role in the Son of Sam murders. [17]

There are sceptics that don’t believe Berkowitz was involved in any cult or more importantly assisted with the some of the murders and he acted alone etc.  However Maury Terry continued investigating the Son of Sam shootings before Berkowitz was arrested.  Doubtful of the single shooter theory favoured by police, Terry dug deeper into the case, noting a number of unresolved questions and inconsistencies that he first publicised in a March 1978 newspaper article.  Eventually interviewing Berkowitz several times, Terry uncovered evidence that strongly supported the idea that a violent offshoot of the Process Church Cult was responsible for the Son of Sam murders and many other crimes. After consulting with police and agreeing to withhold some names and other details, Terry publicised his conclusions first in a series of newspaper articles distributed by the Gannett syndicate in 1979, and later in the already mentioned book; The Ultimate Evil, which has been expanded several times since its initial 1987 publication.  Queens district attorney John Santucci, who thought the case against Berkowitz was riddled with inconsistencies and unresolved questions, was so impressed with Terry’s research that; “He agreed to reopen the Son of Sam case … But to date no-one else has ever been charged in connection with the crimes.”  Journalist John Hockenberry also reported that the Son of Sam case was reopened in 1996 and, as of to date 2011 it’s still considered open. [17]
The same year as Altamont in 1969, marked the beginning of the career of Ozzie Osbourne, who formed the band Black Sabbath.  The group modelled itself on the Rolling Stones.  The next twenty years would witness a procession of young drugged-out rock performers, like Osbourne, yet who many other have since died in drug related deaths, and Osbourne himself has admitted his drug taking obliterated his brain to pieces, and is no doubt the reason he stammers and seems to react more slowly than he did when he was younger.
These young wannabes at any cost want to be famous and rich each competing for the big money and the recording contracts that came with it, are all more than willing to sell their souls to the devil.  The key criteria of those who would make it, is their ability to portray decadence and evil.  These were the heavy-metal groups 1970’s and 80’s, and today’s rap singers and a like are following suit.  In 1985, the New Solidarity newspaper, which has since been forcibly shut down by the US government, conducted an interview with Hezekiah Ben Aaron, at that time the third-ranking member of the Church of Satan, then led by its high priest, Anton LaVey.  However it’s been alleged that many a report that LaVey, a former circus lion tamer, was just a front man for the real high priest Kenneth Anger, the man who allegedly earlier recruited the Rolling Stones to the occult. [18]
In the change in public perception the band experienced after the song “Sympathy for the Devil” was released, Keith Richards said in a 1971 interview with Rolling Stone, “Before, we were just innocent kids out for a good time, ‘they’re saying, they’re evil, they’re evil.’ Oh, I’m evil, really? So that makes you start thinking about evil… What is evil? Half of it, I don’t know how much people think of Mick as the devil or as just a good rock performer or what? There are black magicians who think we are acting as unknown agents of Lucifer and others who think we are Lucifer. Everybody’s Lucifer.”  That’s what a certain sector in the dark side of Freemasonry and Illuminati loved to here, especially ‘Rockefeller’s’ – ‘Rock-stars’, in whom the term ‘Rock’ is meant to originated from.
The following is an excerpt from that interview in the New Solidarity newspaper: “I was working for the Church [of Satan] the Church had other people who were middlemen for other companies.  There were middlemen for Apple, [set up by the Beatles], Warner Brothers, and other record companies.  Someone would come to me and say; ‘I have a tape recording, and I’d like for you to check it out. I’d like to see if you would be interested in sponsoring a Rock group.’ I’d say, ‘all right, I’ll check it out’”.  A few days later Ben Aaron would call back and set up another meeting.  He continues, “I’d hand you $100,000, and you wouldn’t sign anything.  What you wouldn’t know is that a mirror on the back of the wall is a one-way mirror and we’re tape recording and photographing or video- taping everything that goes on. The payback, if you fail to make the group work, is really bad. Sometimes it’s up to 60% on the dollar”.  Aaron’s interview continued: “We send you to a store, we provide you with uniforms and we provide you with amplifiers. It’s all paid through the money we gave you. We set you up with a road tour. We set you up with engagements. We book you”.  Aaron then explained that if the group did not make it, he was given orders to collect the money or make other arrangements. These other arrangements, perhaps, are the key to the dozens of reported rock star suicides.  The underworld drug mafia has ample means to eliminate non-payers. [18]

Snuff films or snuff movies are a motion picture genre that depicts the actual death or murder of a person or people, without the aid of special effects, and for the express purpose of distribution and entertainment or financial exploitation.  The metaphorical use of the term snuff to denote killing appears to be derived from a verb for the extinguishing of a candle flame.  It seems that the first recorded use of the term snuff film is in a 1971 book by Ed Sanders titled: The FamilyThe Story of Charles Manson’s Dune Buggy Attack Battalion, in which it is alleged that The Manson Family was involved in making such a film.  There is no real proof to date that any ‘real’ snuff movies do exist, so I won’t start listing all the many alleged ones, though one argument against the existence of any non-documentary snuff movie evidence, is that it would be the legal assertion that anyone screening such a film would automatically become an accessory to murder, something few distributors would readily approve of, or admit to, and that makes sense to me.
Italian director Ruggero Deodato was once called before a court in order to prove that the murders of humans depicted in his film Cannibal Holocaust had been faked.  The film contains a scene called The Last Road to Hell sequence which supposedly features real execution footage from Uganda, Nigeria, and/or Southeast Asia. – In 2000 an Italian police operation broke up a gang of child pornographers based in Russia who, it was claimed, were also offering snuff films for sale to their clients in Italy, Germany, the U.S. and U.K. It is unclear whether anything other than child pornography films was ever seized.  The Italian investigators say the material includes footage of children dying during abuse. Prosecutors in Naples are considering charging those who have bought the videos with complicity [collusion] in murder.  Between 1983 and 1985 Charles Ng and Leonard Lake videotaped themselves torturing women they would later kill.  In the early 1990’s, serial killers Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka both separately videotaped some of their victims sex attacks. The actual murders were not videotaped.  Apart from the killers, the footage was only viewed by police, judiciary and juries. [19]

In 1997 Ernst Dieter Korzen and Stefan Michael Mahn kidnapped two prostitutes and recorded their torture in Germany. Their second victim escaped and the two men were sentenced to life imprisonment. Prosecutors involved in the case claimed there is an international market for such videos and that Korzen and Mahn had made the video with the intention of selling it. Korzen and Mahn thus became the first persons ever convicted for the making of a snuff movie, although their video was never commercialised. [20]
In 2001 Armin Meiwes videotaped the killing of Bernd Jürgen Armando Brandes. In July 2007, a video was released on to the internet showing Viktor Sayenko and Igor Suprunyuck, better known as the Dnepropetrovsk maniacs, torturing a 48-year-old disabled Ukrainian.  The graphic footage showed Sergei Yatzenko being repeatedly hit about the head with a hammer and stabbed with a screwdriver. In December 2009, ex-Col. Russell Williams graduated from lingerie burglar to serial predator. The former air force star is accused of sexually assaulting two women and killing two others: Marie-France Comeau, a 38-year-old corporal stationed at his base, and Jessica Lloyd, 27, a Belleville, Ont., woman whose body was dumped at the side of a dirt road.  The murders were videotaped but not shown in court. [21] – Other, now termed snuff movies, though obviously in none of these cases was the death deliberately conducted for a film, is when on September 11th, 2001, millions of people viewed heavy rotation television footage of people jumping to their deaths from the burning World trade Centre in New York City.  It is possible to download from the internet videos depicting actual murders or deaths including those of Benito Mussolini, Daniel Pearl, Nick Berg, Saddam Hussein, Paul Johnson, Kim Sun-il, Eugene Armstrong, JFK, Jack Hensley, Kenneth Bigley and a Russian sergeant, the shooting of Yitzhak Rabin, and the gun suicides of Ricardo Cerna, Ricardo Lopez and Budd Dwyer.
Demons [1988] is the name of a song by the Heavy Metal band Rigor Mortis, and I haven’t the room to include their “Die in Pain” song, oh well, you can’t have it all!  Here’s the lyrics of Demons, that many a tank driver has worn whilst blowing the living daylights out of some unfortunate bugger or the other;

We are instruments of evil we come straight from hell
We’re the legions of the demons that are haunting for the kill
Cathedrals are now cemetaries doom is all you see
We have come to take the world and give you misery
We are pestilent and contaminate the world
And make tombs of your cities
We come bursting through your bodies, rape your helpless soul
Transform you into a creature merciless and cold
We force you to kill your brother eat his blood and brain
Shredding flesh and sucking bone ‘till everyone’s insane
We are pestilent and contaminate the world
Demonic legions prevail
We are pestilent and contaminate the world
And make tombs of your cities
Demons! [22]
