Every American needs to read this, especially before they start waving the flag for July 4th. Will we teach our chilren to follow Germany's example? Or will we tell them the truth? There is no freedom or liberty except in Jesus Christ, who we will soon be facing and to whom we will explain our actions.

When I became a parent, I mistakenly
thought that I would raise my son just like my parents raised me. My parents
instilled in me a fundamental respect for authority, how to honor the great
traditions of our country and how to work hard to get what I wanted out of
life.
I grew up loving the ideals of our
country, the freedom and the opportunity.
As a result, I have lived a good and prosperous life. I give thanks to
my parents and to God everyday for my good fortune. However, I have learned
that I was not fully prepared to be a parent because I do not know how to teach
my 12 year old son to live in the New World Order.
The America we knew is dead and gone and is running solely
on momentum. Are any of you asking the same question that I am about how we
tell our pre-teen and teenage children that they live under a hopelessly
corrupt government and they are making plans to fully enslave all of us under
REX 84, FEMA Camps, NDAA, etc? Do we teach our children to never criticize the
government because free speech has been criminalized as an act of terrorism?
How do we provide our children hope that if they work hard and go to college,
that they will have a good life? And even if our kids graduate from college,
most won’t find jobs when they get out of school and even if they do find work
in their field, they will be debt slaves because of the cost of higher
education. How do we encourage our children to learn the lessons of civics when
we fully know that our vote, on a national level, does not make a darn bit of
difference and that the Pelosi’s, Reid’s, Bush’s and Obama’s are bought and
paid for? How do we teach our children that our brave men and women who serve
in the military have been turned into pawns of corporate greed and subsequent
imperialism? How do we prepare to raise our children in a decadent society
which dishonors the Christian principles that our country was founded upon?
Feeling Inadequate As a Father
In my work as a writer and
broadcaster in the alternative media, I know all too well that the potential
dangers that I face in my attempts to reveal the truth about the lawlessness
and abject criminality of so many of our leaders. Hastings and Breitbart remind
all of us in the alternative media that we take significant risks to do what we
do. I decided several years that I was willing to take the risk as are so many
of my colleagues in the alternative media. However, I have discovered that I
was unprepared to be a father to a child who is growing up in a time of
unprecedented corporate and government criminality. Do you realize that our
children areoo living under a government that has forsaken due process and
tortures people that they disagree with? If we treated our children like the
government treats us, we would all be put in jail for neglect and child abuse.
How do I teach my son to develop a fundamental respect for leaders who have no
moral compass?
The Questions a Parent Cannot Answer
My son is showing signs of asking
questions befitting an adult perspective of our present political and economic
situation. I am not bashful about
identifying the misdeeds of our government when I am writing or broadcasting.
Also, I know that I have the intellectual capacity to explain to my son how bad
things have become in terms he can understand. However, I have found that I am lacking the skill and knowledge to
explain to my son just how bad things are without taking away his hope for the
future. Although I constantly say that I
am fighting for our children’s future, I have kept my son as separate as I can
from my work in the alternative media. It is not something that I have tried to
share with him because I do not want him to become cynical. Yet I know that
there comes the day when all parents realize that we have to tell our children
that there is no Santa Claus.
I grew up in an America which was a
republic interspersed with some corruption. Today’s America is a corporate
criminal enterprise where there are no rules for the elite and the republic
concepts underlying our laws are on life support. Subsequently, my son 12 year
old son is growing up in a far different America than I did and to hear him
talk about his future hopes and fears reflects these fundamental changes that
we have experienced as a country.
“I Do Not Want to Be In the Military”
Today, I was telling my son about how his late grandfather
joined the Navy at a very young age and made a successful career out of it. He
stopped me and asked if I would be upset if he did not want to join the
military. At that moment, I realized
that I had an important decision to make as a parent. Do I tell my son the
truth about the facts related to his question, or do I take the approach we
often do with our kids and gloss over the truth?
You Want Answers?
The theme song for my talk show starts out with the classic
exchange between two great actors, Jack Nicholson and Tom Cruise in which they
utter those now famous lines from A Few
Good Men that “You can’t handle the truth.” True to the meaning of my theme
song, I went for broke. I proceeded to tell my son that I did not want him to
join the military. I also told him that our leaders think nothing of throwing
away the lives of our brave young soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan and that we
never belonged in these countries to begin with. He now knows that I think that
the primary reasons that we fight wars today is to make wealthy people
wealthier and they don’t care how many have to die in order to get what they
want. He further learned that it is almost impossible to be a Christian in the
military today. Yes, you can pray on a rug if you are an American soldier, but
you can’t be an open Christian as the “Don’t ask don’t tell” regulation has
made it way from prohibiting the admission of one being a homosexual while
serving in the military to now being used to ban the free admission that one is
a Christian and openly practicing their faith.
In my boldest statement, that some
will judge too reckless, I told him my pre-teen that some of our troops are
being forced to train to control the citizens of our country rather than
preparing to fight our enemies. He’s not ready for the DHS/REX 84/ Northcom
lecture, but the underlying principles were communicated. It was crystal clear
that he understood that I did not want him to be in the military. As they say,
out of the mouth of babes, my son subsequently asked me what if they bring back
the draft?
Obama Has Made It Easy To Choose Sides
Before I relate how I answered the
question about bringing back the draft, please allow me to review two tenets of
Executive Order 13603 in which Obama actually calls for two drafts, a military
draft and a civilian draft. Both programs would be placed under the auspices of
the Secretary of Labor. The military draft is easily understood. However, the
Obama notion of a civilian draft is frighteningly Orwellian. Do you remember
the Obama campaign promise when he said “we cannot just rely on our military
to meet our national security needs, we need a civilian security force, that is
just as strong and just as well funded..”
We now know what Obama was referring to.
Under EO 13603, the
government can split up families. There are no age restrictions on the civilian
labor draft and where you can be sent to perform the “government’s” work. A
husband can be assigned to work in one location and the wife in another. This would represent the ultimate Agenda 21
driven breakup of the family. And of course, our boys can still be marched off
to war to kill and be killed by young men that they have nothing against with
all of this being done in the name of corporate profits.
I told my son that I would not let
him be drafted and that we would leave the country if we had to. This was an
epiphany for me. I realized that at that moment that I need to seriously
consider leaving this country and relocating to a country where the local
military and their civilian forces are not likely to be used as a global police
force.
There Is No Santa Claus
If you are awake as to what is going on and you have
children, you will one day be forced to answer the questions that your children
ask about the world that they live in. And for the life of me, I do not know
how to tell my child.
