Secret

of

Iapetus

by Shadow - April 2005

The ancient civilizations that once occupied western Iran to the eastern

Mediterranean coast, as well as Egypt and the Saudi peninsula left astonishing depictions and an extensive written archaeological record of their visitation by 'sky gods,' or the ANNUNAKI (those who from heaven to earth came). Many books and articles have been written on this subject, and I will only attempt to give an overview of the general information about them here, as it may relate to this article. According to ancient records and artifacts, beings visited Earth from a planet called NIBIRU. Their world, the visitors claimed, is dragged along with a smaller brown dwarf star that orbits our sun- an enormous orbit that takes almost 4,000 years to complete. These ancient records describe this dwarf star, dragging along its planets, as periodically passing near enough to our solar system for them to send ships to earth, where they would engage in accumulation of gold and other metals through mining operations using bituminous (oil/petroleum based) products as fuel to refine ores. This would occur over a period of several hundred years. The visitors would send these materials into low earth orbit, eventually returning with them to their ship, which would remain in orbit between Mars and Jupiter. These visitors claimed they had been coming to Earth for the last 450,000 years, and

that in the distant past they had developed a 'worker class' through genetic engineering involving themselves and early hominids that were in fact the first humans. Over time, these beings claimed, their periodic visitations (every 3600-3800 years) led to the formation of human high civilization, including the development of government, agriculture, written language, and various sciences. Concepts relating to religions and deities, along with depictions of winged objects in the ancient sky that are found in the region's archaeological record, are apparently attempts to emulate or record and illustrate these visitations.

Many of these visitors remained behind after their companions left, and were credited by these cultures with teaching men to quarry and build with massive blocks and segments of stone as well as helping humans to design and construct the ancient cities, temples, and agricultural systems. According to Sumerian records, the Annunaki claimed that as their planet approached our system they would arrive from their world on ships, each containing fifty occupants, materials and supplies. These ships would then enter our solar system, assuming an orbit passing between Jupiter and Mars. They would remain there for several hundred years, as teams sent to Earth gathered gold and other metals from southern Africa and the region between the Tigris/Euphrates rivers, sending them back to the orbiting ship. Others gathered minerals and ores from the asteroid belt, which they called RAKKIS (the hammered bracelet). As they completed operations, their ship would leave its orbit and approach Saturn. Using Saturn's enormous gravitational pull to assist their acceleration they would then 'slingshot', returning to their own system which would be completing the nearest part of its 4,000 year orbit and heading back out into deep space. On January 9,1880,a report to British Royal Astronomical Society by R.H.M. Bosanquet and A.H. Sayce described a clay tablet circa 3300 BC, discovered in the ruins of the Royal Library in Nineveh.

This circular tablet, divided evenly into eight equal segments, was described as a 'planisphere' or map of the heavens. Several segments shapes are associated with higher mathematics, and one section has a clear diagram of the constellation of Orion. In a very striking segment that is almost completely intact, there are two triangular shapes, with a row of dark circular shapes stretching between them. Under this row, written in cuneiform is the phrase "the deity EN.LIL goes by these planets".

In this same segment, a large triangular shape with parallel lines is visible. This was a commonly used pictograph in the Near Eastern region, used to indicate a ruler's domain, or point of origin when a ruler undertook a journey. This is connected with an angular line to another smaller triangle, with the names of two celestial bodies written above it. These cuneiform terms translate as DIL.GAN (first marker) and APIN (where the course is set). According to the scholar Strassmeier, Apin represents Mars, so DIL.GAN (first marker) would be massive, easily seen Jupiter. These seem to indicate an orbital position of their ship in our solar system between Jupiter and Mars. Stretching between these two triangles there is a row of dots, indicating planets. The Annunaki considered the earth's moon to also be a planet in its own right, so a count of the planets outwards from the sun would put their line of travel as passing Saturn on their way into or out of our solar system. In the lower triangle in this segment there is also written in cuneiform the term SHUUT.IL.EN.LIL, or 'the way of Enlil' . This was another very common term used in the region, this one indicating the sky or heavens. the sky. In the lower part of this section, we also see a group of four dark spots, carefully arranged in a pattern with one leading centered spot. The positions of these aligned dark spots directly correspond with the locations of the ruins of the ancient cities of Larsa, Bad-Tibira, and Lagash in southern Iraq. Nippur, or their landing site on Earth, is indicated by the dark spot in the lower corner of the triangle, and is also located in this exact spot in relation to the other three ancient cities in the Tigris/Euphrates river valley. This section of the planisphere describes the navigational route of these beings through our solar system past indicated planets to an orbit from which smaller craft (SHEM) were flown to a landing site on Earth. It is very similar to the imagery engraved on a plaque attached to the NASA Pioneer 10 probe that left earth for deep space in February 1971. This probe also contains a planet map, with the path of the departing Pioneer 10 probe as it heads out of our system.

Saturn's enormous gravitational and electromagnetic fields were regarded with great fear and awe by the Annunaki - they called it TAR.GALLU, or 'the great destroyer'. Apparently this was because of an incident in their distant past when a ship with fifty occupants was lost on a mission to the inner solar system. Possibly through trajectory or flight path miscalculations, the story describes a craft becoming trapped in a large orbit around Saturn, hopelessly dooming its occupants from any timely rescue. A Sumerian

cuneiform text, published in 1912, describes this incredible disaster as an Annunaki named MARDUK rushes to his father, EA, with terrible news. "It has created itself like a weapon... It (the ship) has charged forward into oblivion! The Annunaki who number fifty it has seized! It has seized SHU.SAR(planet chaser ) in its grip of death!" The 2004/2005 Cassini/Huygens probe's flyby of Saturn revealed unprecedented photos of many bodies in the region, including close-ups of Saturn's moon Titan and its gaseous atmosphere. Only briefly mentioned in the media and in the official NASA releases, however, was the fact that a correction in the flight path of the probe had sent it within photographic range of Iapetus, a body that orbits Saturn in a very large and unusually inclined orbit- far wider than any other object circling Saturn. Scientists believe this extremely remote orbiting object was most likely 'trapped' or pulled into orbit instead of originating as part of Saturn's moon and ring system. NASA was baffled as readings from sophisticated equipment aboard the Cassini/Huygens probe indicated that the object was very likely hollow. As the first photos of Iapetus began to appear, NASA and the scientific world were shocked to see that this was clearly an artificial object, manufactured and with clear indications of intelligent design. The object showed advanced yet very ancient construction and technology, on a massive scale. It became clear that this object was an enormous, very ancient abandoned space craft, very similar in design to the spacecraft Death Star from the George Lucas science fiction film Star Wars.

This revelation was quickly suppressed, and official NASA releases only indicated that there were strange features visible on the object's surface.

Iapetus, shaped like a peanut, has a perfectly straight 60,000 foot high bank of surface material that bisects its center, running the entire visible length of the object. Obviously an artificial construct, this is apparently to protect a seam along this part of the ship. The ridge also has an internal structure of three beams or tubes that run parallel and are inside the embankment.

This object also has what appear to be two equally sized and spaced exhaust ports on one extremity. These are surrounded by darkened areas, possibly from heat or exhaust residue.

In this photo from the probe, the two exhaust ports, equal in size and shape, are seen on the rear of the craft. Note the darkened regions on the surface, which emanate from these ports. These areas are consistent with exhaust burns and residue from a propulsion system.

Iapetus also has a very large number of craters that appear to be symmetrical, mostly hexagons. These seem to show an underlying tetrahedral framework, with ports at various places, with overlying layers of rocky strata. The largest and most prevalent surface feature, other than the ridge straddling its center, is a large hexagonal portal or bay, with clearly angular and symmetrical sides.

Along the edges of this same area, edge collapse and degradation have exposed massive structures and engineered seams and angled remnants, protruding from eroded and exposed edges.

From ancient mines in southern Africa, villagers have found small finely manufactured spheroids of unknown origin and made from milled metals hundreds of thousands of years ago. This is the same area where the Sumerian accounts claim the Annunaki were engaged in mining operations for metals. These metallic objects are precise models of the ship that is now trapped around Saturn. There have been two distinct types of this object discovered, one of which models the three covered ridges found straddling the central region of Iapetus.

Unfortunately there has been little mention of this unprecedented discovery in the mainstream or alternative media, and the scientific community is strangely silent on the subject. Clear evidence of artificial design and manufacture of an extraterrestrial object in our solar system, along with correlating physical and archaeological evidence of its existence should be viewed as one of the most significant scientific finds in the history of mankind. This discovery, however, has been largely ignored. In 1959, NASA issued a document called the Brookings Report, which warned the US Government that any scientific evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence "could be destabilizing to terrestrial governmental institutions...if not the future of civilization." Such a policy may possibly explain the deafening silence from NASA, the world scientific authorities, and governments regarding this monumental scientific discovery.

THE

ARCHITECTS OF

DESTRUCTION by Shadow

"WAR is a racket. It always has been.

"It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.

"A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small "inside" group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes." War Is A Racket, Major General Smedley Butler

There is a group at work in the world that is apparently involved in the recycling of entire civilizations and their infrastructures. This group consists of a secretly connected cabal of industrialists, politicians, and war profiteers. Through various mechanisms, entire civilizations-- buildings, people, technology-- are destroyed, ostensibly to 'replace' or 'update' them. I call this group the Architects of Destruction. In this essay I will attempt to explain some of the motives and purposes of this group, but they will not be directly identified. In fact there is no single name for this group, as it is composed of many interacting organizations, and has operations at many levels. To claim any single group or cabal is responsible greatly simplifies the situation-- it is more accurately described as many organizations with similar values and interests working in consensus. This group bases its existence on its ability to create and profit from war. Through careful manipulation of political processes and control of technological development, this group stages or foments states of war

between nations, hiding their true purpose-- usually infrastructure replacement or population control-- from the world by declaring an imminent threat that leaves no recourse but war.

In every major war in recent history, thousands of hospitals, schools, factories, libraries, public buildings, and communications facilities and transportation systems have been needlessly destroyed. Usually these facilities were completely irrelevant to the declared purpose of the given conflict. This massive devastation is so consistently prevalent it becomes clear that this must be the true hidden purpose of almost every war-- the complete and thorough destruction of aging infrastructure, which occurs on both sides of the conflict, with the intention of replacing them. During the Revolutionary War in the United States, thousands of small villages and cities were completely destroyed regardless of military objectives, along with the destruction of enormous amounts of livestock and crops. The American Civil War, which claimed almost 700,000 American lives, led to the destruction of almost every major city in the South, along with railroads, factories, and public buildings. This also led to the mass relocation of a workforce (slaves) made obsolete by inventions like the cotton gin and steel plow to the newly industrialized north, to provide needed labor.

During World War II, over 56 million people were killed, and tens of thousands of aging buildings and agrarian villages were destroyed, from Russia to Great Britain. Entire cultures and communities were completely erased along with the roads, bridges and transit systems that connected them. As The German army invaded Russia, the inhabitants exercised a 'scorched earth' policy-- the methodical destruction of all livestock, buildings, crops, and materials or supplies that would be of help to the invading army. Similar actions had also been taken by many European nations, causing the loss of many types of plant and animal food species, both

domestic and wild.

In an effort to fight a 'war on drugs,' the farmland of most central and south American nations were sprayed with toxic defoliants, to destroy the source of illicit drug trafficking. With the pollution of groundwater and poisoning of farmland, can this possibly be a form of population

control?

When the use of DDT was banned in sub-Saharan Africa more 30 million people died as a result of the burgeoning mosquito population that thrived there. While this occurred, the world applauded efforts to protect endangered birds of prey, with claims of DDT being the cause of weak eggshells and deformities given wide coverage. “Six years after the United States banned DDT, there were 800 million cases of malaria and 8.2 million deaths per year”. Dixy Lee Ray,Trashing The Planet, p.69.

After the second world war, new towns and cities replaced those that were destroyed, and most European and Eastern Bloc nations today enjoy a very high standard of living compared to prewar conditions, and many live in modern, well developed cities that have replaced prewar villages and small agrarian towns. While there are several very specific areas that this close knit (and intergenerational) group usually operate in, coordination between various subgroups may exploit an opportunity for profit. The activities of this group are much more involved than just selling weapons to both sides of a conflict, or goading overpopulated nations to fight each other, however. While these are two of their primary activities, their main focus seems to be on profiting from every aspect of one of their 'staged conflicts.' A war is seen as a business venture, from start to finish, and contractors and suppliers are usually prepared long before any conflict would necessitate their involvement. From arms sales to

reconstruction contracts, numerous opportunities for profit are exploited.

Often resources or technology are the primary objective but profits are made

from every possible source. The Vietnam War, for example, involved 500,000 American and 300,000 Chinese troops, and was ostensibly to halt the spread of communism in southeast Asia- but coincided roughly with the development of satellite and telecommunications technologies. Tungsten, a mineral widely and cheaply available in Vietnam, is vital to this industry, and this was a predominant area of technological research and development for both the Chinese

and Americans at that time. In the current Iraqi and Afghanistan conflicts, similar patterns are observed. There is wholesale senseless destruction of cities and civilian populations. There is blatant war profiteering, and careful manipulation of media and public opinion to hide it. Afghanistan and Iraq are both rich in resources, which are likely the main objective of those that are staging these conflicts. There has also been a deliberate attempt to greatly reduce the population of Iraq-- millions died in the last war between Iran and Iraq and Operation Desert Storm, and it has been reported that over 1 million Iraqis have

died in the last decade from the effects of economic sanctions. Over 100,000 civilians have been reported killed so far in the current Iraq conflict. The dispersal of radioactive material from depleted uranium rounds and armor in recent years by this group will cause a massive reduction in population in the exposed areas, and will necessitate the complete removal of most of the infrastructure (buildings,roads,housing) in these areas.

It is my conclusion that the modernization of the United States of America may be the current objective of this group, along with most of North and South America. The transportation systems and energy grids on both of these continents, particularly those in North America, are obsolete, aged or badly in need of repair, and the populations of these nations are viewed by the Architects of Destruction as undereducated and poorly trained in comparison to most modern cultures. With this in mind, companies and groups associated with the Architects of Destruction are currently involved in looting businesses, and exploiting and manipulating laws in these nations. I have also noticed the deliberate use of cheap or poor materials, resulting in lower quality roads, buildings, and communications and energy networks on these continents.This is also evident in the construction of poorly made housing and public buildings. Universities and schools in North and South American countries can also be observed lowering their academic standards and teaching xenophobic and closed minded ideologies.

Wildly fluctuating currency values coupled with massive debt have the United States, as well as most Central and South American countries, in very poor economic condition, and most skilled jobs and manufacturing have already been outsourced from the United States and other nations in the region. Considering the typical methods and behavior of the Architects of Destruction, I believe there are many signs that indicate there may be profound change in North and South America during this century.

Bombing of Baghdad

Scalar War in

Indonesia?

by Shadow & Pax January 5, 2005

"Others [terrorists] are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves... So there are plenty of ingenious minds out there that are at work finding ways in which they can wreak terror upon other nations... It's real, and that's the reason why we have to intensify our [counterterrorism] efforts." --- Secretary of Defense William Cohen at an April 1997 counterterrorism conference

On December 17, 2004, President Bush issued an executive order, giving the United States universal control over the world's oceans, for security or development purposes.(1) Nine days after this order was issued, a cataclysmic event occurred in the region of Aceh, Indonesia. Is it a coincidence that the epicenter of the earthquake which triggered the deadly tsunami in the Indian Ocean was centered on Aceh, a small area on the northern tip of Indonesia? Aceh is extremely rich in many resources, including exotic flora and fauna, huge mineral deposits and extensive mining operations, and one of the world’s largest deposits of liquid natural gas. This area has had civil war for some time, as local groups struggle over access to the resources such as natural gas, and over the fate of the local primitive populations the development has displaced.(2) ExxonMobil has had operations there for many years, and has been recently charged with hiring local groups of mercenaries to exterminate native populations in the region, clearing the way for resource development. Among allegations of torture, rape, and the maintenance of private prisons, this lawsuit was settled in November 2004.(3) Is it possible that this disaster is from a scalar/HAARP type strike, as many believe was the case in the destruction of Bam, Iran, exactly a year earlier to the day? While studies and research on this exotic class of weaponry has been deliberately kept quiet, it has by no means stopped. Based on the technology and theories of Nikola Tesla, it is widely known and acknowledged that the USA, the Soviet Union and possibly the Germans long ago developed this type of technology, which involves carefully calibrated and aligned waves of

electromagnetic energy that form high energy fields or charges at a remote location.

Apparently these waves are triggered with a series of interferometers, and are able to travel through the entire Earth, or even out of our atmosphere into space, and make it possible to remotely cause earthquakes, or activate volcanoes. This energy focused into the Earth, for example along a fault line or tectonic plate overlap, would cause enormous heat and pressure to develop, causing earthquakes and tectonic plate shifts. This would cause massive earthquakes and tidal wave/tsunami events. Using this technology, it is also possible to entirely control weather systems-layers of the upper atmosphere can be 'fine-tuned' in temperature to cause a variety of weather patterns to form-including typhoons,hurricanes,and electrical storms.

The countries that have this technology have been quietly testing its applications for some time.(4) Often these tests are done far out at sea, and are described as 'joint military exercises' or such. From reports and witnesses, the technology has been used

to create enormous electromagnetic, bubble-shaped shields, stretching many hundreds of miles (large enough to cover a major city) and also to superheat areas of the atmosphere, causing the instant development of massive storm fronts.(5) Is it possible this technology was involved in the recent disaster?

As early reports of the event began to spread, it became clear that the smaller nations in the path of the rising water had no knowledge of what was about to happen. Only Australia and the US naval base on Diego Garcia seem to have been warned, even though hours passed between the seismic event and the landfall of the tsunami in highly populated areas. While a tsunami would have been an unusual situation, reports of a high magnitude earthquake would have been taken very seriously. However, none of the nations in the group of nations that share earthquake monitoring data were informed. Diego Garcia, near the epicenter, reported only a 6 foot tidal swell, and the threat was downplayed in Australian media. Most of the nations of the world have worked quickly to send people in the area- including the United States. However, in an incredibly short period of time a large task force was assembled and sent on its way, almost as if it had been prepositioned. This task force, which can only be described as an army of occupation, will arrive very soon, led by Lt. General Blackman, the same general that led the charge into Baghdad. Our 'humanitarian mission' includes battleships, an aircraft carrier, destroyers, and a 15,000 man US Marine Strike Force with enough food for a month, according to an official Navy website.(6) Armed helicopters and battle groups have already arrived and assumed control in Aceh, ostensibly to provide 'aid'. Presumably they will stay on and help with the recovery in the region, which will likely include development of the oil and gas resources. Without firing a shot, the United States military appears to have

positioned an enormous military force deep into the heart of Muslim territory, ostensibly for humanitarian aid, but more likely to provide security for long term development in the region.

The

Iraqi Mandaean

Conspiracy

an exclusive by Shadow

Why are we fighting a war, or insurgency, in Iraq? There have been countless plausible answers offered, but none really carry the ring of truth. None really seem to offer justification for

the loss of countless thousands of lives. What could be so vital to the United States, or the world, that it would justify such wholesale slaughter and destruction? Known to few outside the 'secret society' community, Iraq is in fact the most hotly contested and highly coveted real estate on earth, because it is the site of evidence of the true origin of Christianity and Judaism, and possibly many other religions as well. In southern Iraq, an orthodox purity cult sect called the Mandaeans live much as they have for the last 2,000 years. They are apparently an offshoot of a group that followed an earlier Christian teaching in the tradition of John the Baptist, or possibly the Essenes - one of many groups of the era that broke away from mainstream religion for various reasons, usually because of a belief that the mainstream religious establishment had 'sold out,' or became too worldly or preoccupied with wealth and power. It has been determined by researchers that the Mandaeans of southern Iraq are in fact the Nasoreans, who were driven from Judah circa 37AD (1). Along with many other fugitive 'churches,' they fled groups of hired mercenaries intent on suppressing the growing Christianity movement. In THE HIRAM KEY, authors Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas speculate that the Mandaeans may have even fled Saul (Paul) of biblical new testament fame. Strangely enough, the Mandaeans view Christ as a rebel heretic who betrayed secret Nasorian traditions, but accept John the Baptist as a holy man - they practice washing and bathing rituals similar to modern Christian baptism ceremonies.

There are several compelling connections between the practices

of the Mandaeans and the worldwide secret society community, particularly the traditions of Freemasonry, a secret society that traces it's origins to the order of the Knights Templar. While the Templars were originally commissioned and backed by the Roman Catholic church, they quickly became more influential and powerful than their sponsors. Records indicate that during the 1200s, 80% of kings and monarchy owed money to the Templar Order. They were rumored to be able to gain a Papal audience on demand, and many believed that they must have 'had something' on the church that enabled them to extort the power they wielded. During the inquisitions and investigation that followed the purge of the Templars by Philip IV in 1307, it was revealed that the Templars which were involved in secret religious practices were apparently an offshoot of the esoteric teachings of the 4,000 year old Babylonian Mystery Schools, and that they employed rituals and symbolism that indicated this. Similar symbolism and rituals are also found in modern freemasonry.(2) In a freemasonic initiation ritual, the candidate is dressed in a white garment identical to those worn by Mandaeans. The candidate also exhibits the rolled up sleeve, peculiar to the priestly class of Mandaeans . Note also the knotted cord around the waist, of identical material, size, and usage by both. Templars were required to wear similar garb under their battle dressage.

Freemasonry candidate in initiation ritual

The name 'Mandaean' comes from a root meaning 'secret knowledge,' and they employ a ritual grip of hands for a 'deal' or 'righteousness' - a very freemasonic concept. It is not at all surprising to also observe that the Mandaeans call their priests Nasorians! (3)

When the Knights Templar fled the European purge in 1307, a large group fled to Scotland and Robert the Bruce's protection. It is not known, however, what happened to the Templar treasure fleet that slipped away in the night from La Rochelle in Brittany, or the treasure and documents from Herod's Temple that were known to be hidden inside the massive twin pillars at the Templar lodge. Many believe they were entrusted to the care of an assistant by the condemned Jacques DeMolay, captured leader of the Templars, with instructions to take the Order into hiding.

A Templar Knight

Many authors and researchers speculate that they fled to the coast of Central or North America, long before Columbus. The Sinclair family of Scotland claim their ancestors landed in North America in the early 1300s, making it very possible they were involved in an expedition with the Templars, many of which were known to be in Scotland at that time.(4) Mandaean heritage linking them to the Nasoreans also gives them a connection to the Qumranians, a group that are known to have buried scrolls and documents under the temple of Herod - where the fledgling Templars, only nine members strong, conducted excavations for nine years in the early 1100's.The Templars finally departed abruptly - and very quickly became the most powerful political, religious, and financial force in the civilized world. What did they find that enabled them to wield such power? The teachings of the Mandaeans describe an idyllic land to the west, found by following a star they called Merica. Could information about the existence of Merica possibly have been among the treasure and secret documents discovered in Jerusalem? Did the Templars travel to Merica, a century later, to avoid capture? It is at least more than coincidental that our land is called America, just like this distant idyllic land to the west known to the Mandaeans.(5) While it is not known if the Templars ever arrived or established a secret colony in North America, history is full of veiled attempts to find their elusive treasure. Hernando Cortes, among many others, was overtly after a fabled ancient golden city in North America, and was told by the Aztec leader that white men from the ocean were 'expected' to return for their treasure. Coastal New England tribes in Maine tell of an ancient golden city far up the Penobscot, left there many centuries ago. What could be the secret that they have - the Mandaeans and the Templars? Other than treasure, what could be so compelling that Iraq as a society and culture must be slated for complete destruction, through genocide, full theater war against civilians, and DU contamination? What could be so dangerous to the 'powers that be' that they would want Iraq so utterly destroyed?

Iraq, widely known as the cradle of civilization, has undergone an archaeological renaissance in the last century. Pristine ancient cities of exquisite workmanship (hidden from the world by 14 years of war and no-fly-zones) have been recently uncovered, along with artifacts and relics that apparently exhibit ancient advanced technology which appears to be from extraterrestrial sources.

The ancient city of Ur seems strangely out of place and time.Note the use of advanced architecture and building

techniques.Were the builders helped by an alien intelligence?

The artifacts far predate Christianity and Judaism. Enormous libraries describing an ancient religious culture that had interaction with beings they described as 'sky gods' have also been found, and the information in these records is so volatile it has justified, as President Bush has called it , 'another Crusade." The credibility of established scientific and religious thought, it is believed, must be protected at all costs.

Compare this Knights Templar stronghold (left) to Babylon's Ishtar Gate (right). Note the similarities in walls and towers - yet this architecture is separated by more

than 3,000 years.

This ancient religion seems to have been the precursor of our relatively modern Judaism and Christianity, but describes a deity more technological than mythical, more literal than symbolic. For the Mandaeans, Sumerians, and Eblans of the region, their relationship with a 'god ' seemed to involve their developing a working knowledge of science, math, medicine, agriculture, astronomy, written and oral language, and government/administration. Incredible as it sounds, the ancient religions of the southern Iraq region describe an interaction between the local population and a being from space.

In this planisphere, or map of the heavens, from Nineveh, Iraq, dated 3300 BC, a being called En.LIL is described as visiting and departing our solar system.

This 'religion' and 'worship' seems to have initially been a teacher /student type of relationship. The awe and reverence exhibited by the ancient cultures appear to have been more because of the technology and teachings of their visitors than any physical characteristic, and it was calmly accepted that these periodic 'visitors' and their craft were from the 'sky'.

Babylon, or Babel, is Chaldean for 'Gateway of the Gods.' This is because the Chaldeans taught that Babylon was built over the original location of the 'coming and going' of the gods, or a landing/launch site. This would be a massive tower of stone with a wide platform and load bearing base, similar to the structure found at Baalbek, Lebanon. Various craft piloted by the "DIN.GIR", or 'righteous ones of the fiery rockets' would arrive and depart from this site in Iraq's ancient past.(6) The biblical story of the tower of Babel is borrowed from an older Sumerian story of a group of men that attempted to reconstruct a launch tower similar to the one left long ago by their 'gods' in the past. In the Sumerian account the men, instead of trying to reach the sky or god, are preoccupied with flight - that is ,to glide or launch aircraft from the tower, and travel over great distances. The men intend to imitate the behavior of their gods - to duplicate their technology, which the story makes apparent involved flight. Archaeologists speculate that ancient extraterrestrial technology recovered from this site may include navigation or communications equipment or even crashed or stored aircraft.

This Sumerian cylinder seal (2400 BC) accurately depicts a model of our solar system in the sky near a figure wearing a horned headdress indicating the figure is a diety. The depiction is very accurate, including size, shape and order of planets. Note also the rocket between the antenna/control towers, in the far central background.

Presently, Iraq is in a state of siege and war, and all archaeological sites and materials have been seized or occupied by foreign troops. Most shrines and libraries that have records of this heritage have been destroyed already. There is an enormous worldwide black market for Iraqi antiquities, driven by secret societies with collectors of these prized trophies as members. The world famous 'Baghdad battery,' a 5,000 year old electrical device, has vanished in the looting and chaos, and there were many reports that the looting of the Iraqi National Museum was led by Americans who systematically removed virtually every item from the museum and several mosques and palaces, bypassing reproductions and facsimiles.

The black market, along with a consensus among the secret society community that the controversial religious information should be suppressed, has led to the present situation in Iraq today. In their view, the credibility of accepted versions of world religions, particularly Judaism and Christianity, must be maintained at all costs - the connections between banking, governments, religions, culture and civilization are pervasive, and release of the truth is believed to have the potential to cause mass chaos, and collapse of their power structure and influence. Conclusion It is my conclusion that there has been concerted effort by established and organized governments and religions worldwide to suppress both documents and physical evidence that portray Iraq's (and possibly the world's) very unique development of religion. They are also intent on the destruction of the archaeological evidence of the same - including ancient artifacts, relics, or recorded information. It is also my conclusion that it has been decided by these same groups that everyone who has been involved with or exposed to this should be silenced. This is being done with exposure to depleted uranium, mass destruction of the

The Baghdad Battery

infrastructure and population of Iraq, and integration of their culture and social demographic into 'western' style ideologies. Because the secret societies fear the revelations from discoveries in Iraq would upset the entire civilized world, and alienate and undermine as much as 80% of world religions, there has been an unspoken consensus among a great number of nations that the current attempts to suppress the information are appropriate at this time. Unless the destruction and genocide in Iraq are halted immediately, the greatest archaeological and scientific (and possibly religious) discoveries mankind may ever make will be lost forever. Shadow

Dov Zakheim and the

9/11 Conspiracy

by 'Shadow' and 'Pax'

In a document called "Rebuilding America's Defenses: Strategy, Forces and Resources for a New Century" published by The American Enterprise's "Project for a New American Century"(1), System Planning Corporation (SPC) International executive, Dov Zakheim, called for "some catastrophic and catalyzing event - like a new Pearl Harbor" being necessary to foster the frame of mind needed for the American public to support a war in the Middle East that would politically and culturally reshape the region. A respected and established voice in the intelligence community, his views were eagerly accepted, and Dov went from his position at Systems Planning Corporation to become the Comptroller of the Pentagon in May 2001. (2) Perhaps not so coincidentally, it was an SPC subsidiary, TRIDATA CORPORATION, that oversaw the investigation after the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in 1993. SPC, according to their official website, specializes in many areas of defense technology production and manufacture, including a system developed by their Radar Physics Group called the Flight Termination System, or FTS.(3) This is a system used to destroy target drones (craft that would be fired on by test aircraft or weaponry) in the event of malfunction or "misses". This highly sophisticated war-game technology allows the control of several 'drones' from a remote location, on varying frequencies, and has a range of several hundred miles. This technology can be used on many different types of aircraft, including large passenger jets. According to the SPC website (4), a recent customer at that time was Eglin AFB, located in Florida. Eglin is very near another Air Force base in Florida-MacDill AFB, where Dov Zakheim contracted to send at least 32 Boeing 767 aircraft, as part of the Boeing /Pentagon tanker lease agreement.(5) As the events of September 11, 2001 occurred, little was mentioned about these strange connections, and the possible motives and proximity of Dov Zakheim and his group. Since there was little physical evidence remaining after the events, investigators were left only with photographic and anecdotal evidence.

This is a photograph of the Flight Termination System

module, from their site.(5). Note it has a

cylindrical shape, and is consistent with the size and shape of the object observed under the fuselage

of flight 175.

The Boeing lease deal involved the replacement of the aging KC-135 tanker fleet with these smaller, more efficient Boeing 767s that were to be leased by Dov Zakheim's group. The planes were to be refitted with

refueling equipment, including lines and nozzle assemblies.

In this enlargement of flight 175, we can clearly see a cylindrical object under the fuselage, and a structure that appears to be attached to the right underside of the rear fuselage section.

When seen in comparison, it is obvious that the plane approaching the Trade Center has both of these structures-the FTS module and the midair refueling equipment, as configured on the modified Boeing 767 tankers. Of particular interest is the long tube-like anomalous structure under the rear fuselage area of flight 175-this structure runs along the right rear bottom of the plane, as it also does on the Boeing 767 refueling tanker pictured. After considering this information, I am convinced that flight 175, as pictured on the news media and official reports, was in fact a refitted

Boeing 767 tanker, with a Flight Termination System attached. Use of this system would also explain the expert handling of aircraft observed in both New York and Washington investigations, which has been officially credited to inexperienced flight school students.

Since the refitted 767s were able to carry both passengers and a fuel load, as shown in this photo, it is likely that the plane designated Flight 175 was in fact a refitted 767 tanker, disguised as a conventional civilian passenger plane.

As shown in this photo of a 767 being serviced, the FTS unit, when in position, would be small and unobtrusive enough to be fairly innocuous (at least to casual observers, such as passengers). The smallest circle indicates the size and position of the anomaly depicted in the photos of Flight 175. The larger circle, which is the size of the engine housing, shows the size of the anomaly in relation to the engine. Note the size and position of the open hatches on the engine housing, which would tend to discredit the widely held theory that the anomaly is an open hatch or cargo door.

As the above diagram shows, all flights involved in the events traveled very near many military installations, and appear to have traveled in a manner suggesting guidance and possible transfer of the control of the planes among the bases. Since the evidence from the World Trade Center site was quickly removed, there is little concrete evidence of the involvement of Dov Zakheim, who has since left his position at the Pentagon. However, the proximity of Eglin AFB to MacDill AFB in Florida and Dov Zakheim's work via SPC contracts and the Pentagon leasing agreement on both of these installations, combined with SPC's access to World Trade Center structural and security information from their Tridata investigation in 1993, is highly suspicious. Considering his access to Boeing 767 tankers, remote control flight systems, and

his published views in the PNAC document, it seems very likely he is in fact a key figure in the alleged terrorist attacks in New York City on September 11, 2001. Send comments to: Shadow@conspiracynewsnet.com

EDITORIAL RESPONSE TO READERS' COMMENTS: In response to some of our readers who have questioned our premise that it was Rabbi Dov Zakheim who 'called for' the Pearl Harbor type of incident, we here at Conspiracy News Net acknowledge that the PNAC document was written by the likes of William Kristol and Donald Kagan, and therefore as the real brains behind the agenda they are the ones calling for it in a literal sense. However, we do stand by our assertion that the Rabbi called for it as well, insofar that he signed his name onto this document. If he signed it he agrees with it and therefore he is calling for it. Some of you have argued that we are singling out Rabbi Zakheim because he is Jewish, implying that we are pushing some sort of twisted anti-semetic agenda while noting that he is not the only one who signed the PNAC document and therefore wondering why our article is about him and not the others. We do not mean to imply that the Rabbi acted alone, our article simply points out that Rabbi Zakheim had access to things like structural integrity, blueprints and any number of important facets of information about the WTC through his work with TRIDATA CORPORATION in the investgation of the bombing of the WTC in 1993. That he had access to REMOTE CONTROL Technology through his work at System Planning Corporation (SPC). That he had access to BOEING AIRCRAFT through a lease deal HE BROKERED while working at the Pentagon. And finally that he was part of a group of politically radical Straussian Neo-Conservatives, who, through their association with PNAC, called for restructuring of the Middle East, noting that a Pearl Harbor type of event MAY BE NEEDED to foster the frame of mind required for the American public to accept such a radical foreign policy agenda. In light of all this information we here at Conspiracy News Net stand by our statement that Mr. Zakheim not only called for the slamming of
