Muslim Brotherhood Front Group Trains Airport Screeners
The Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) has completed training for 2,200 Transportation Safety Officers (TSOs) at the Los Angeles International Airport according to a press release found on the MPAC website.
The MPAC release notes that the two-month training course informed officers of “the diversity of Muslims around the world from cultural dress to language to tenets. The four trainers taught the TSOs how to properly handle a Quran and discussed the different ways Muslim women and men choose to cover or dress. For example, the TSOs learned if a woman wears hijab and needs a secondary screening she should be screened in a private area by a female TSO officer.”
In 1986, MPAC was formed as a political action arm of one of the largest Wahhabi mosques in America, the Islamic Center for Southern California.
As the Center for Security Policy’s Team B II report entitled “Sharia: The Threat to America” notes, “The founders of the Islamic Center for Southern California are Hassan Hathout and his brother Maher Hathout. The late Hassan Hathout was a senior member of the Muslim Brotherhood Movement. The two brothers Maher spent time in an Egyptian prison during the early days of the Muslim Brotherhood’s activities there, led by the Brotherhood’s founder Hassan Al Banna. MPAC’s own publication, The Minaret, has proudly called Hassan a ‘companion of’ and Maher ‘a close disciple of’ Brotherhood founder Hassan al Banna.”
Maher Hathout also founded and is currently a senior advisor for MPAC. He and others at MPAC also currently work for and maintain a close relationship with the Islamic Center of Southern California.

Osama Wants To Be Your Facebook Friend
You don’t get to 500 million friends without making a few terrorist connections. Al-Qaeda has discovered the joys of Facebook. “I entreat you, by God, to begin registering for Facebook as soon as you [finish] reading this post,” one online extremist urged his jihadist pals.
Facebook isn’t going to replace jihadosphere fora like the Fallujah message board any time soon. Those sites are for committed students of extremism, while Facebook is a tool for reaching those who might be curious about auditing the class. But there’s a dawning “recognition” in the jihadosphere, according to a recent Department of Homeland Security study of terrorists’ Facebook usage, of “the inherent value in exploiting a non-ideological medium, namely its wide user base that is comprised of the general public.”
Terrorists have been talking about “invading Facebook” for years. But early extremist activity on Facebook was tactical: cataloging “Crusader losses” in Iraq and Afghanistan and providing al-Qaeda-favorable spin on media events more generally. As DHS sees it, most extremist Facebook usage is about getting average Muslims to Like al-Qaeda. In addition to “broadcast[ing] the losses of [counterterrorist] armies [and] expos[ing] the lies of their leaders,” in the words of a post on an extremist forum, Facebook is a tool to “[m]ove from an elite society ([on] jihadi forums and websites) to mainstream Muslims, [encourage] their participation, and interact with them.”
To a lesser degree, it’s also about tactics. The DHS study, unearthed by the gang at Public Intelligence, notes that information on creating homemade bombs and shooting AK-47s has been posted to Facebook — particularly to its non-English variants, where it’s easier to post incendiary content. It’s not necessarily a usage violation to put up content about how to shoot a gun accurately, and so some fB-posted videos have come interspersed with clips from al-Qaeda propaganda-production shop as-Sahab or narrated by hesher-turned-terrorist Adam Gadahn.
DHS also warns that using your feed to tell the world where you are at any given time helps “remote reconnaissance for targeting purposes.” (What must the government think about Foursquare updates?) That’s the flipside of a 2008 Army report’s fear that Twitter will become a terrorist recon tool.
But primarily, DHS finds, al-Qaeda uses Facebook to launder its message through an outlet that the kids think is cool. Extremists quoted in the study talk about disguising their involvement in the group for maximum appeal. Partially, that’s to keep “the idolator dogs” of U.S. intelligence off their scent — they recommend takfiris sign up for Facebook using identity-masking tools like Tor — but it’s also for propaganda purposes.
“In order for the maximum number of ‘Facebookers’ to join your group, you should reveal to them that you are, for example, an expert in terrorist groups,” reads a piece of extremist Facebooking advice cited in the DHS study. “You don’t have to reveal that you sympathize with al-Qaeda. The group’s members will automatically sympathize with the organization once they become familiar with the organization’s tapes and jihadi operations. You must use artifice.”
And that’s how you get impressionable kids interested in eschatology-based murder — not necessary through the message, but through a medium that all their friends use. “Given that in terror networks social bonds tend to be more significant than external factors like shared hatred or ideology,” Homeland Security’s study finds, “social networking interfaces whose purpose is to virtually connect people based on such common social bonds clearly lend themselves to extremist use and recruitment efforts.”

EJP Replies to Doug on the Order’s Plot to Conquer America via the War of 1812
President Andrew Jackson, 1830s
Dear Doug,
No, you are wrong as to the purpose and outcome of the War of 1812. The Revolutionary War (1775-1783), blessed by God in its outcome, rendered the colonies ” free, independent and sovereign.” The pristine Dred Scot decision (1857) affirms this truth. The American colonies were severed from the British Crown and thereby broke the Pope’s Temporal Power as exercised via Jesuit-controlled King George III. This loss enraged the Jesuits so they prepared for Round Two in their attempted destruction of the North American, Reformation-born, Protestant states.
General Andrew Jackson, Victory of Battle of New Orleans, 1815
The Order’s second attempt to reduce these United Protestant States of America to submission to Rome, via the British Crown, was the War of 1812. But once again, God delivered the nation from its purposed demise, using the great Andrew Jackson to save the nation. Thus we have two, low-level Freemasons, also AV1611 Bible-believers, who were used to create the nation and later to save that nation from Roman Power via London—George Washington and Andrew Jackson. It was this same Jackson who then routed the bankers in 1834, he refusing to renew the charter for the wicked Bank of the United States for which he was censored in the Senate and for which his assassination was attempted. During his presidency, the nation was in the black (no debt), had no national bank, had gold and silver coin in circulation, and had protective tariffs. These are the three necessities for the prosperity of any nation. The Crisis; Or the Enemies of American Unmasked (1855), is essential reading to understand these issues at this time in American history (the work being one of the 13 rare books on the free CD that comes with your Editor’s VAIII).
The third try is a charm. The Order brought about the War Between the States (1861-65) using its high-level, “illuminized” Scottish Rite Freemasons—on both sides—to get the job done. As a result of that war and subsequent, wicked, Socialist-Communist Reconstruction (1865-1877), the 14th Amendment was declared ratified on July 28, 1868, thus ending our White Calvinist Protestant Federal Republic of these United States of America (1789-1868). In its place was imposed an amalgamating Jesuit Empire (1868-Present) “from sea to shining sea” that would be used to restore the Pope’s Temporal Power around the world. The 20th century would be known as “the American Century” (the term coined by Knight of Malta Henry R. Luce and his intimated adviser, Jesuit John Courtney Murray), as the American Empire would successfully restore “the Vicar of Christ’s/Vicar of Horus’s” Temporal power over every people in the world via CFR-led diplomacy and war.
Jesuit Edmund A. Walsh with General Douglas MacArthur, Tokyo, 1948
But much remained the same in the Order’s Holy Roman 14th Amendment American Empire until the dictatorship of FDR. In the early 1930s 33rd Degree Illuminized Freemason FDR, at the direction of Georgetown University Jesuit Priest Edmund A. Walsh, put the nation under emergency war powers—not during the War of 1812 or even the war of Federal Aggression (1861-65). It was at this time the gold-fringed flag of the empire was introduced into the courts and banks of the nation. In 1960, during the reign of Francis Cardinal Spellman’s Knight of Malta and Papal Crusader President Dwight D. Eisenhower, the gold-fringed flag was made the official flag of the empire as per Title 4. There is no such thing as an American flag today, in any federal or state house, that is not gold-fringed.
Please try to remember these benchmarks when reviewing the history of the American republic-turned-empire. If not, you will be lost in the labyrinth of patriot lies, one of them being the U.S. has always been a British colony or that it was reduced to a British colony during the War of 1812. The fact is the American Empire became the hammer of the Pope via the British Crown in 1868. To evidence this transaction, Queen Victoria gave President Hayes the “Resolute Desk,” a token and symbol of Vatican control of Washington via the British.Great quote from Jefferson. He said many true things for which we must give him credit. He, along with Bible-believing Baptist Calvinist James Madison, authored the most excellent Virgina and Kentucky Resolutions of 1798-99. Yet, he was an “Illuminatus” according to his contemporary, Congregationalist Minister Jedediah Morse. Jefferson is yet another example of the risen Son of God using wicked men for the benefit of his true Church, if His people are walking in obedience to his Word, the Reformation Bible, the AV1611 for English-speaking peoples.As the original 13th Amendment, no doubt the Order staunchly opposed it; for if passed, none of their stooges belonging to papal orders could hold public office.Rather, the Order put forth the present 13th Amendment which radically abolished slavery in the South. This radical emancipation—this grand theft, as calculated by the Jesuits advising the British Crown and thus the Radical Red/Black Republican Party, further destroyed the White Protestant people and high culture of the Old South. Additionally, it prepared for the transfer of ownership of the emancipated Black slaves—as well as all the White Freemen—to Washington, D.C., via the impending 14th Amendment’s creation of “National Citizenship.” We must never forget that the cry of the Order’s Illuminati/Masonic French Revolution was codified into the Constitution by 1870: “Liberty” (13th Amendment, 1865); “Equality” (14th Amendment, 1868); and “Fraternity” (15th Amendment, 1870).By this, all the peoples would ultimately be reduced to Socialist-Communist slavery while their rulers would be the Cartel-Capitalists with total loyalty to the Pope of Rome. As the Levellers were the agents for the King’s Roman Catholic Cavaliers during Cromwell’s day, even so the Socialist-Communists are the agents for the Order’s Pope-serving, American Cartel-Capitalists from 1848 to the present.Lord bless,Brother Eric_______________________________Dear Eric;A second British attempt to overthrow White Protestant America would again be attempted in 1812, but King George, though burning the capital in Washington, failed—by the grace of God in Christ!I think your statement above, needs some clarification, because it has always been my impression that the US lost the war of 1812, and brought about the present phenomenon of a permanent state of national emergency.The proof that this is the case today, is the U.S. flies the United States flag with a yellow fringe on three sides. According to the United States Code, Title 4, Sec. 1, the U.S. flag does not have a fringe on it. The difference being one is a Constitutional flag, and the fringed flag is a military flag. The military flag means you are in a military occupation and are governed by the Commander-in-Chief in his executive capacity, not under any Constitutional authority. A fringe is an ensign.Although 1812, militarily a route of the British, the solemn obligation to maintain the lawful rights and privileges thereof, as a sovereign, free and independent state, ruinous inflictions of usurped and unconstitutional power sovereignty reserved to the states, was reserved to protect the citizens from acts of violence by the United States, as well as for purposes of domestic regulation (not much different the 9/11 and the war against Afghanistan present situation) the citizen is the looser.The war of 1812 over hemp.They didn’t to tell us in school:ORallodium title:THE UNITED STATES IS STILL A BRITISH COLONY EXTORTING TAXES FOR THE CROWN!!!Loosing the War of 1812 and Treaty of Ghent (formal recognition of conquest) explains why the real Principal, the King (or currently the Queen) of England, still rules this country through the bankers (or some might be more correctly be stating that the Bank of London rules the Queen) and why we own no property in allodium. (in some states exceptions do apply)The War of 1812 delayed the passage of the 13th Amendment by Virginia, allowed the British to destroy the evidence of the first 12 states ratification of this Amendment, and it increased the national debt, which would coerce the Congress to reestablish the Bank Charter in 1816 after the Treaty of Ghent was ratified by the Senate in 1815. (a scenario repeating on approximately 99 year intervals, so once again, is coming up soon)The Forgotten Amendment; the proposed Thirteenth Amendment: “If any citizen of the United States shall Accept, claim, receive or retain any title of nobility or honor, or shall, without the consent of Congress, accept and retain any present, pension, office or emolument of any kind whatever, from any emperor, king, prince or foreign power, such person shall cease to be a citizen of the United States, and shall be incapable of holding any office of trust or profit under them, or either of them.”We supposedly defeated the British in the Revolutionary War! Did not the War of 1812 void any sovereignty gained by the Declaration of Independence and the Revolutionary War?The body of the insurgent, also known as a Belligerent claimet, in a plethora of particular ways, all most always controlled;This was why Jesus Christ warned us of the beguilement of the lawyers and thedeceit and deception they practice.DougFOOTNOTES:“…And to preserve their independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty or profusion and servitude. If we run into such debts as that we must be taxed in our meat and in our drink, in our necessaries and our comforts, in our labors and our amusements, for our callings and our creeds, as the people of England are, our people, like them, must come to labor sixteen hours in the twenty-four, and give the earnings of fifteen of these to the government for their debts and daily expenses; and the sixteenth being insufficient to afford us bread, we must live, as they now do, on oatmeal and potatoes; have not time to think, no means of calling the mismanager’s to account; but be glad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves to rivet their chains on the necks of our fellow sufferers…” (Thomas Jefferson) THE MAKING OF AMERICA, p. 395
EJP Replies to Brother James on Rome’s Plot to Make George Washington a Jesuit
Baptism of George Washington by Baptist Army Captain, Pastor John Gano, Hudson River, 1783
Dear Brother James,
The Jesuits thought that with anti-Illuminati, Baptist George Washington out of the way, they could then take over the country with Jefferson. (Additionally, they poisoned him for payback in the creation of a Protestant, Constitutional, limited Republic of Sovereign States—the 19th century haven for the White Protestants of the world.) But that plot failed, as it was John Adams that was put into office who was the enemy of Jefferson at the time. Adams, in addition to making it necessary to be a resident for 15 years before citizenship could be obtained via his Alien and Sedition Law (thwarting the Order’s Roman Catholic immigration plot, which law Jefferson later voided), Adams kept us out of England’s war with Napoleon—both Napoleon and King George III secretly working together.Remember, it was Jefferson (called an “Illuminatus” by the godly Jedediah Morse, father of Samuel Morse who invented Morse Code and wrote against the Jesuits in his Foreign Conspiracy) who, in 1803, purchased the land from Jesuit-ruled Napoleon we know today as “the Louisiana Purchase.” This enabled the Jesuits to legally remain in the area (especially Missouri) since France had expelled the Jesuits from all her overseas holdings—which included the French-controlled land of the Louisiana Purchase. Yet, what the devil’s men met for evil, God worked for good (Genesis 50:20), the lands of the LP also becoming—in the majority—White Protestant and Baptist dominions with many Native American Indians coming to Christ via the gospel.It was also Jefferson, the president at the time, who did not object to Pope Pius XII’s legal recognition of the Jesuit Order in the United States in 1805! Jefferson should have never allowed this, but in turn, expelled the Order once restored here in America. But since Jefferson was a defender of Jesuit Illuminatus Adam Weishaupt (who died a Roman Catholic!), this is not surprising.With the end of Jefferson’s two terms, God gave us Baptist Calvinist James Madison to be president for two terms. Much was thwarted as to Rome’s designs, and his successor, James Monroe (also a president for two terms), penned the Monroe Doctrine that was really targeted against Rome and her Holy Alliance (1815) /Secret Treaty of Verona (1822) conspiracy against the Protestant US.On a further note, the real Founding Fathers of the American Revolution were men such as “the Grand Incendiary” Samuel Adams, John Hancock, John Witherspoon (the avid enemy of Thomas Paine), Patrick Henry, George Mason, Roger Sherman (one of the five authors of the Declaration of Independence) and James Madison (one of those who penned the Constitution)—all strong, Protestant and Baptist Bible-believing Men of God. To say that the Founding Fathers were all deists and pagans is a bold-faced lie and serves the Order’s quest in attempting to totally destroy all patriotism in the Bible-believing American public. This was the goal of Jesuit Temporal Coadjutor F. Tupper Saussy in writing his Rulers of Evil—the greatest defense of the Jesuit Order’s right to to rule the world your Editor has ever witnessed. Thank God Saussy is gone to his place!Trust this helps.Lord bless,Brother Eric________________________________

God & Depression: A Lost Sense of Purpose
This is part 1 of a 6-part series on God and depression, from Psalm 42 & 43.
The book of Psalms gives us a chance to look closely at the biblical way of relating to God in the real world of joy, frustration, excitement, setback, delay, delight, injustice, disappointment, and shame.
I have learned a lot from preaching on Psalm 42 and 43, as they throw a lot of light on the theme of depression. Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones preached a series of messages on this subject back in the 1950’s that was later published as the book, Spiritual Depression. This book quickly became one of the biggest selling Christian books of the century, revealing the importance of teaching on depression.
Lost sense of God
The writer of Psalm 42 is a musician and leader in the Jerusalem temple who has somehow been cut off from his home, his friends, and his occupation. Being away from the temple, for him, is being away from God, so he pens a song to express his deep grief.
He starves without the presence of God, which used to be the hallmark of his life as a full-time temple servant. His life is nothing without it, in the same way that life is nothing without water.
This is not because he is unusual — he is exactly like us. The only difference is that he knows what he’s craving.
People are born craving and starving for something, but we tend to refuse to feed on the thing that’s designed to satisfy our thirst: God.
”
The difficulty for Christians arises when we are faced with seasons where God seems to hide his face from us; but this is completely normal. As believers, we will encounter times of spiritual drought, during which our awareness of God’s smile seems to dwindle. This can be a shock to new Christians, and for many, it can be a reason to quit because God seems distant or somehow "unreal". But these are the seasons when we are growing up fastest.
There are also seasons where our hearts are tested. In 2 Chronicles 32:31, it says God "left" King Hezekiah "to know all that was in his heart." We mustn’t be surprised by such seasons, but be prepared for them, and in Psalm 42, we have a helpful resource for each day.
Next up: Part 2: Lost Community.
