[00:11.18] | A new American revolution has begun. |
[00:14.59] | Not against the forces of a colonial kingdom, |
[00:17.72] | but a rebellion against an oppressor that has risen among us |
[00:22.26] | It is not a foreign invasion we have to fear, |
[00:25.26] | rather the threat of a force within our nation |
[00:27.79] | that has usurped what was once a dream of |
[00:30.72] | having the greatest democracy ever known to man |
[00:35.06] | We now live in a world |
[00:36.12] | where the population has grown exponentially |
[00:38.85] | And the planet is running out of resources |
[00:40.99] | to sustain us all. |
[00:42.94] | We in the inner-city |
[00:44.23] | and those struggling in the suburban ghettos |
[00:46.58] | may not realize it yet, |
[00:48.47] | but make no mistake, |
[00:50.07] | the people who control the technology |
[00:52.17] | and run every enterprise that makes up our world |
[00:55.00] | have seen this coming for a long time. |
[00:58.35] | The ideas of renewable energy, global warming, |
[01:01.48] | the idea of collectively working |
[01:03.48] | were purposefully bought out, |
[01:05.56] | derailed, demonized, or corrupted in favor of |
[01:09.50] | an economic structure designed by a monetary caste system |
[01:14.14] | In a desperate attempt to convince us |
[01:16.93] | that we need to maintain that extravagant existence, |
[01:20.65] | they’ve pretended we might share in their dream |
[01:24.10] | That we can justify any inhumanity in its name. |
[01:27.79] | Out of this blind ignorance was born the curse of slavery. |
[01:32.27] | Many of the founders of this nation were themselves Masons. |
[01:36.26] | That is not a Left wing or Right wing conspiracy theory. |
[01:39.34] | It is a widely known and accepted fact |
[01:42.48] | So then explain to me how a nation founded by men |
[01:45.28] | who not only understood the long and complicated history of Europe, |
[01:48.91] | but also that of Africa could permeate |
[01:52.15] | such a lie in convincing the American public |
[01:54.64] | that one race of men was superior and one inferior. |
[01:58.68] | When, in fact, we know that all the early men the people |
[02:01.88] | who created civilization and every aspect of what we see today, |
[02:05.91] | the foundation of all modern human life, were from Africa |
[02:11.79] | The greatest cowardice of course came not with slavery itself, |
[02:17.17] | unfortunately. But with the excuses for slavery. |
[02:21.21] | For if America had been as brave as the Roman Empire |
[02:24.20] | and all other empires that have come after her, and claimed |
[02:28.43] | “No, we were just stronger and that’s why we took you,” |
[02:31.87] | then when slavery was over, |
[02:34.26] | racism would’ve probably followed in suit |
[02:37.76] | But instead it was the social lie, |
[02:40.58] | the religious lie that was told |
[02:42.56] | that stayed in the minds of people |
[02:45.20] | that separated one human being from another. |
[02:48.49] | In order to distract us from the issues of class and freedom, |
[02:53.43] | they created issues around religion and race |
[02:57.31] | to dominate the world for centuries to come |
[03:01.29] | Some claim that they respect the culture of life in this country. |
[03:06.57] | They cry out for indignity of children |
[03:10.77] | that are slaughtered before they are born. |
[03:12.91] | But God has not penetrated their souls, |
[03:16.64] | for they have no empathy. |
[03:19.03] | Nothing in their cold hearts |
[03:21.11] | for the hundreds of thousands of |
[03:22.70] | lives we have taken in our wars overseas, |
[03:27.03] | for that which they call “collateral damage,” |
[03:29.97] | which are the burnt and damaged children of the world. |
[03:32.92] | They have no prayers for them. |
[03:36.15] | Only snide commentary on the internet |
[03:38.88] | and laughter in their hearts. |
[03:40.92] | And yet you claim to be one with God? |
[03:44.35] | We talk about immigration in this country. |
[03:47.99] | Might doesn’t make right, ladies and gentleman; |
[03:50.78] | it just makes right now. |
[03:53.32] | What we are saying to the rest of the world is, |
[03:55.96] | one day, when America grows weak, |
[03:58.82] | one day when her legions falter, |
[04:01.32] | on the day when her economy crumbles... |
[04:03.96] | China, Russia, Europe, whatever power has arisen... |
[04:08.89] | all you have to do is come here |
[04:10.84] | and conquer us in a few military excursions, |
[04:14.67] | and then you too can set up shop here, |
[04:18.16] | and in 100 years you can tell every red-blooded American, |
[04:21.55] | “No, you are an illegal human being. |
[04:25.23] | I am the true citizen. I have all the rights. |
[04:28.42] | You have no rights." |
[04:31.12] | Maybe you forgot how you got this country. |
[04:34.45] | Maybe you take for granted the blood, |
[04:37.24] | the sweat, the tears, that the people |
[04:40.58] | who live in practical serfdom shed everyday. |
[04:44.02] | For we may not run America, but we make America run |
[04:50.79] | We talk about the Law, |
[04:52.39] | yet how many indignities have been legal in the past? |
[04:55.83] | How many treaties with Native American people have we broken? |
[05:00.12] | How many international laws have we violated? |
[05:03.30] | And, speaking of laws how can a corporation |
[05:08.34] | be regulated by a government that is funded |
[05:11.52] | and controlled by corporations? |
[05:13.91] | How can there be accountability for people |
[05:16.39] | who see a profit margin above the lives of Americans? |
[05:20.13] | Above the lives of human beings in other countries? |
[05:24.22] | We have taken the soul out of ourselves |
[05:26.41] | and placed them inside machines |
[05:29.14] | My words, of course, will be marginalized, |
[05:32.55] | demonized in typical fashion. |
[05:35.72] | Any time you dare to question the power structure |
[05:38.12] | they say you hate America. |
[05:40.11] | No, I love this country. |
[05:43.20] | I see its beauty every day in its people. |
[05:46.09] | And I love it a lot more than those |
[05:47.78] | who have abandoned the American worker |
[05:50.07] | that have chose to exploit and try to |
[05:52.62] | take away every single benefit she has, |
[05:54.95] | those that attempt to make excuses for every atrocity committed, |
[05:59.74] | in the name of supposed freedom. |
[06:02.04] | Those who demand accountability from everyone, |
[06:05.27] | but offer none themselves... |
[06:07.55] | who favor contracts over lives... |
[06:10.05] | Who favor invasion and control over organic democracy overseas |
[06:18.12] | The greatest flaw that any intelligent person has |
[06:22.10] | is to think that they’re smarter than everyone else. |
[06:25.47] | And so as the government has planted its spies amongst us, |
[06:30.22] | we have planted our spies among them. |
[06:34.29] | They have infiltrated every branch of the American government. |
[06:38.49] | They have retrieved names, data, hard numbers. |
[06:42.97] | The paper trail that will expose those that truly control this country, |
[06:48.74] | those that control the political parties, |
[06:51.49] | those that control the oil industry, the energy. |
[06:54.38] | Those that stand behind the companies faceless, |
[06:58.81] | whose names have never been revealed |
[07:02.20] | Until tod.. (GUNSHOT) |

[05:32.55] | demonized in typical fashion. |
[05:35.72] | Any time you dare to question the power structure |
[05:38.12] | they say you hate America. |
[05:40.11] | No, I love this country. |
[05:43.20] | I see its beauty every day in its people. |
[05:46.09] | And I love it a lot more than those |
[05:47.78] | who have abandoned the American worker |
[05:50.07] | that have chose to exploit and try to |
[05:52.62] | take away every single benefit she has, |
[05:54.95] | those that attempt to make excuses for every atrocity committed, |
[05:59.74] | in the name of supposed freedom. |
[06:02.04] | Those who demand accountability from everyone, |
[06:05.27] | but offer none themselves... |
[06:07.55] | who favor contracts over lives... |
[06:10.05] | Who favor invasion and control over organic democracy overseas |
[06:18.12] | The greatest flaw that any intelligent person has |
[06:22.10] | is to think that they' re smarter than everyone else. |
[06:25.47] | And so as the government has planted its spies amongst us, |
[06:30.22] | we have planted our spies among them. |
[06:34.29] | They have infiltrated every branch of the American government. |
[06:38.49] | They have retrieved names, data, hard numbers. |
[06:42.97] | The paper trail that will expose those that truly control this country, |
[06:48.74] | those that control the political parties, |
[06:51.49] | those that control the oil industry, the energy. |
[06:54.38] | Those that stand behind the companies faceless, |
[06:58.81] | whose names have never been revealed |
[07:02.20] | Until tod.. GUNSHOT |
