  - A pistol-packing pastor who drew national attention earlier this year for hosting a "God-and-Guns" event at his church is stepping down from the pulpit to serve his flock with a new mission.
  - Pastor Ken Pagano ended his 30-year career last month when he resigned from the New Bethel Church in Louisville, Ky., saying that he wants to focus on church security and Second Amendment rights — a crusade he insists is better fought outside the ministry.
  - "Thirty years was a good, long run, but it's time for a change," Pagano told the Washington Times.
  - "If I can write my own ticket, I want to get involved more in Second Amendment issues as they affect the church, and I can do more from outside the pulpit than from behind it," Pagano told the paper.
  - About 200 people attended Pagano's "Open Carry Celebration" at the New Bethel Church in June
  - The event commemorated the roles of religion and gun ownership in American history, and included a handgun raffle.
  - Attendees were also provided with firearms-safety information.
  - While Pagano says the event drew mostly positive responses, it made him realize that he might have another calling — keeping worshippers safe.
  - Pagano has since teamed up with New York Rabbi Gary Moskowitz, who has worked to protect synagogues from terrorist attacks, to form the International Security Coalition of Clergy,
  - an organization dedicated to "making the vulnerable less vulnerable," according to their mission statement.
  - The group promotes the use of armed and trained security at houses of worship. Kentucky law allows residents to carry guns openly in public, with restrictions.
  - "Churches are very soft targets and very vulnerable to attack from terrorists and other homegrown, disgruntled individuals," Pagano told The Washington Times. "Unfortunately, most religious leaders are living in denial," he told the paper.

- - The unit is patterned
    on the notorious 'Operation Phoenix' where CIA death squads
    murdered and tortured tens of thousands of people to 'neutralize
    the infrastructure' of South Vietnam's National Liberation
    Front."
  - Operations
    are already reported in Iraq and Syria.
  - NOTE: It's interesting to note here that Hersh
    also confirmed the presence of Israelis in "Task Force 121"
    - indicating the continuing toady-like relationship that Israel
    has with the United States;
  - Hersh reported:
    
    "According to American and Israeli military and
    intelligence officials, Israeli commandos and intelligence
    units have been working closely with their American counterparts.
  - Moreover, Israeli commandos are expected to serve alongside
    the Americans when full-field operations begin.
  - The U.S.
    high command denies Israeli involvement and an Israeli
    official told Hersh: 'Both governments have decided at
    the highest level that it is in their interest to keep
    a low profile on U.S.-Israeli cooperation'."
  - GOD'S WAR WARRIOR: LT. GEN. WILLIAM BOYKIN
  - Richard Cooper of the Los Angeles Times reports on the
    "Christian mindset" of the Joint Special Operations Command; he
    points out that it is plainly visible in its commander, Lt. Gen.
    William Boykin.
  - Boykin is a much-decorated and twice-wounded
    veteran of covert military operations. From the bloody 1993
    clash with Muslim warlords in Somalia chronicled in "Black
    Hawk Down" and the hunt for Colombian drug czar Pablo Escobar
    to the ill-fated attempt to rescue American hostages in Iran
    in 1980, Boykin has been in the thick of things.
  - Boykin, a member of the super-secret "Delta Force" (a group
    that the intelligence agencies refuse to acknowledge one way
    or another) is an outspoken evangelical Christian who appeared
    in dress uniform and polished jump boots before a religious
    group in Oregon two years ago in June to declare that radical
    Islamists hated the United States -
  - "... because we're a Christian nation, because our foundation
    and our roots are Judeo-Christian ... and the enemy is a guy
    named Satan."
  - Discussing the battle against a Muslim warlord in Somalia,
    Boykin told another audience,
    
    "I knew my God was bigger than his. I knew that my God
    was a real God and his was an idol."
    
    He went on to say:
    
    "We in the army of God, in the house of God, kingdom
    of God have been raised for such a time as this," Boykin
    said last year.
  - [Now you must
    understand something here; no doubt Boykin is a Christian,
    and no doubt he is sincere; but how does one square
    the kind of thinking and life-style that he has engaged
    in with God's command in Luke 6:27-29 "But I say unto
    you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which
    hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them
    which despitefully use you. And unto him that smiteth
    thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and
    him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not to take
    thy coat also." It is, of course, IMPOSSIBLE!
  - THE "CHRISTIAN" ROOTS OF AMERICA'S
    
    INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY
  - Boykin's
    mentor in the intelligence community was Colonel Joseph A. McChristian,
    a "holy figure" in the annals of American intelligence.
  - Like
    Boykin, McChristian was a TRUE BELIEVER.
  - As special assistant to the Joint U.S. Military Advisory Group
    in Greece from 1949 to 1950 (which coincided with the end of
    the Greek Civil War), he had seen that Protestant Bibles were
    distributed to every Greek soldier fighting the communists.
  - McChristian understood the value of religion in America's war
    against communism.
  - McChristian believed that if soldiers could
    be made to think that they were "fighting for God,"
    they would be that much more imbued with a "fighting spirit,"
    and that much more confident in what they were doing when called
    upon to engage in the dirtier, more sordid side of counterinsurgency
    activity.
  - After all, not everyone is a sadist and a pathological
    killer, especially insofar as conscript armies are concerned.
  - It's difficult to kill, and if the killers can be convinced
    that what they are doing is "KILLING DEMONS"
    in the name of God rather than killing innocent human beings,
    it makes the job that much easier. It eases the conscience when
    one is alone at night.
  - McChristian introduced this kind of thinking wherever he went.
    He believed in it!
  - o McChristian, spreading the Gospel was synonymous with spreading
    the American "free enterprise" system and expanding
    the financial interests of people like the Rockefellers, the Milbanks,
    the Swifts and the Morgans.
  - It's no accident or flight of fancy,
    therefore, when peasants - in describing the activities of death
    squads throughout Latin America - inevitably tell stories of death
    squad members praising God, singing hymns, and "speaking
    in tongues" as they go about their gruesome business of butchering
    people.
  - This is what McChristian and people like him believe!
    - and this is precisely what makes it possible for death squad
    members to also be "members in good standing" in countless
    numbers of Protestant evangelical groups throughout Latin America.
  - This is why - in following Oliver North and members of his entourage
    around the Contra-training camps in the 1980s - one reporter could
    describe it as if he had been following a traveling revival.
  - LIMONOCHA
  - When, in April 1962, McChristian arrived at Limonocha, Ecuador
    (the base camp for the Wycliffe Bible Translators), to fight
    the demons that were arrayed against the American imperial system,
    he arrived with the silver leaf of an American Green Beret Lieutenant
    Colonel.
  - Actually, that was just a cover; he was in fact a major-general
    working in army intelligence as chief of the Western Hemisphere
    Division.
  - His counterpart in the CIA was Colonel J.C. King who
    was intimately associated with the Wycliffe Bible Translators.
  - King had gotten Wycliffe heavily involved in the overthrow of
    the Arbenz government in Guatemala, which - like Goulert's government
    in Brazil - had threatened to nationalize various American business
    enterprises there in the early 1950s,
  - and which had cost the
    lives of thousands and thousands of peasants, many of whom had
    been converted to Protestant Christianity through the efforts
    of Wycliffe.
  - It seems that in instance after
    instance when "push came to shove" and the interests
    of the Gospel clashed with the interests of Wycliffe's business
    backers, the business backers won out.
  - [Please see our article on "The
    American Empire."]
  - LIMONOCHA
    
    WYCLIFFE BIBLE TRANSLATOR'S (SIL)
    BASE
    
    CAMP IN ECUADOR USED BY THE CIA
  - McChristian was only forty-seven years old when he made Wycliffe's
    Limonocha jungle base the unofficial headquarters for his counterinsurgency
    activities in the Amazon basin; but there was no mistaking his
    mastery of the techniques of counterinsurgency.
  - Moreover, he
    was well connected to conservative networks, being the son-in-law
    of General A. Van Fleet, who had recently violated military
    law by publicly challenging President Kennedy's handling of
    the Bay of Pigs.
  - Van Fleet was then a top counterinsurgency
    consultant to Kennedy's army secretary on guerrilla warfare
    -
  - and there are many who believe that Van Fleet was involved
    in some way in the Kennedy assassination.
  - BENDING THE RULES FOR CHRIST
  - So convinced of his own righteousness and the righteousness of
    the cause he served, and so sure that in battling for the "American
    free enterprise" system in Latin America, he was helping
    to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ,
  - McChristian was not above
    helping things along for the "Lord's side" by bending
    the rules a little in its advancement.
  - For example, when the government
    of President Carlos Julio Arosemena of Ecuador began making moves
    which McChristian believed would lead Arosemena down the same
    road Goulert had taken in Brazil and Arbenz had taken in Guatemala,
    he swung CIA assets in the country against Arosemena and provoked
    a rebellion at the CIA advised Cuenca garrison.
  - When, in answer
    to this rebellion, a group of young intellectuals in Quito associated
    with the University of Ecuador began training to defend Arosemena,
    McChristian sought to link the students to the local Communist
    Party.
  - He turned Quito upside down looking for evidence, and finding
    none, he doctored interrogation reports to the Ecuadorian military
    that falsely linked the students to the Communist Party.
  - Most
    of the students were shot, and Arosemena was so frightened by
    what had happened that he quickly caved.
  - In doing so, Arosemena
    gave into a CIA demand that he launch a "civic action program"
    (utilizing death squads) - the first of its kind in America
    - which combined $1.5 million in U.S. military assistance with
    another $500,000 in AID funds for public works projects.
  - McChristian
    took this concept to Vietnam later in the decade and turned
    it into the Phoenix Program.
  - In 1969, Phoenix was re-introduced
    into Latin America as a fully developed counterinsurgency program
    - AND THIS IS PRECISELY THE LINK BETWEEN THE DEATH SQUADS
    IN LATIN AMERICA AND THE EVANGELICAL "CHRISTIAN" COMMUNITY!!
  - A STAGGERING THOUGHT
  - THINK ABOUT IT!! THE THOUGHT IS STAGGERING! THE CONCEPT
    OF THE DEATH SQUAD WAS DEVELOPED BY A MAN WHO OPENLY PROFESSED
    CHRISTIANITY THROUGHOUT HIS LIFE AND WAS CLOSELY LINKED TO THE
    WYCLIFFE BIBLE TRANSLATORS.
  - And people call this Christianity?
    God help all of us, for if this is so, we have all surely lost
    our way.
  - The Wycliffe Bible Translators, however, thought otherwise.
    Wycliffe's Donald Johnson said that McChristian was "...
    one of the most impressive officers that I have ever met. If
    all of our top commanders and diplomats were of his caliber,
    we could be proud and there would not be any 'ugly Americans'."
  - McChristian's approach to counterinsurgency utilizing Wycliffe
    was enthusiastically embraced by everyone at Wycliffe.
  - Wycliffe's
    Jerry Elder even sent Cam Townsend, the head of Wycliffe, a
    clipping from Lima's La Prensa that reported on a conference
    between Ecuadorian and Peruvian army commanders on the border.
  - Writing from Limonocha, Elder wrote:
    
    "The high point was the fact that they should unite
    to fight the common enemy, Communism ... I think this is particularly
    significant in light of the fact that one of the reasons that
    Commander Melger (CIA) went out there was to give a report
    to the military on the possibility of our (i.e., Wycliffe)
    doing espionage along the border."
  - THE IMPLICATIONS HERE ARE CLEAR ...
  - The intimate, the long-lasting involvement of people like Boykin,
    McChristian and innumerable Christian missionaries in America's
    BLOODY effort to expand the limits of the American New
    World Order System stinks to high heaven.
  - indicates the casual nature
    of America's resort to political assassination and murder to
    silence its opponents outside the borders of the United States
  - - AND FOR AMERICANS TO BELIEVE THAT THIS WICKED PROCLIVITY
    TOWARDS ASSASSINATION DOES NOT EXTEND TO AMERICANS THEMSELVES
    IS NAÏVE IN THE EXTREME.

    and the Search for the Manchurian Candidate," "Conspiracy
    Theories" and "The
    Utility of Police Brutality in the Elite's War against the Poor."]
  - Moreover, the list of "in-house" Americans who have been "killed
    off" by the agents of America's "government within a government"
    is not confined simply to these well-known cases.
  - It extends well
    beyond them to men and women of much less prominence who died
    under very murky circumstances (alleged suicides, quick acting
    cancers, mysterious plane crashes, automobile accidents, etc.)
    - all people who opposed elite power in one way or another.

  - Frank Olson - Killed to silence him with regard to MK-Ultra.

  - THE HORROR OF WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON IN THIS COUNTRY - THE MURDERS,
    THE "DISAPPEARANCES," THE IMPRISONMENTS, ETC. THAT NO ONE WANTS
    TO ADMIT EXIST, AND THE GREATER HORROR OF ADMITTING TO THE PARTICIPATION
    OF CHRISTIANS IN ALL OF THIS - IS BREATHTAKING.
  - IT'S
    FOR THIS REASON THAT WE DARE NOT LOOK IN A MIRROR, BECAUSE THE
    MONSTER WE SEE LOOKING BACK AT US IS OURSELVES.
  - In defense (so to speak) of those Christians who have involved
    themselves in these crimes, it must be admitted that the COMPULSION
    that propels these men to their evil deeds is exceedingly forceful.
    It has to be!
  - Again, it isn't without reason that Solzhenitsyn
    wrote:
    
    "To do evil a human being must first of all believe
    that what he's doing is good ... instead of bad in his own
    and others' eyes, so that he won't hear reproaches and curses
    but will receive praise and honors."
  - It, therefore, has to be concluded that the DECEPTION
    that is driving this COMPULSION and that has made these
    men and women mad (crazy) is a powerful one - AND THAT IS
    EXACTLY WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS.
  - SO YOU THINK YOU CANNOT BE DECEIVED?
    
    MAYBE EVERYONE ELSE CAN, BUT NOT YOU!
  - Jesus said that in the "Last Days" a great deception will take
    hold of Christendom; specifically, he said:
  - "There shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and
    shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it
    were possible, they shall DECEIVE the very
    elect.
    
    "Behold, I have told you before." (Matthew 24:23-25)
    
    NOTE: The words, "if it were possible"
    are not in the original Greek.
  - In other words, there shall arise in the "end of days" many
    "false Christs" and "false prophets" all claiming to speak for
    Christ insofar as the Kingdom of God is concerned. "Follow me,"
    they will say, "and together we will set up the Kingdom of God
    on earth."
  - That, of course, is exactly the message of today's American
    Church.
  - That's what "Dominionism" is all about.
  - [Please see
    our articles, "The God-Men of the
    American New World Order System" and "Luciferic
    Christianity;" please also see "The
    Superman Theology behind the International Feast of Tabernacles."]
  - Naturally enough, you say that you know better. That you can
    resist the COMPULSION that is driving these men and women.
    But, oh, I tell you, you have no idea how POWERFUL that
    COMPULSION is! How demanding; how insistent and unrelenting!
  - The fact is, it is so seductive and compelling that Jesus warned
    us not to allow ourselves to be subjected its SIREN call.
    He warned us to get away from it!
  - Specifically, He said:
    
    "Come out of her [i.e., Babylon], my people, that ye be not
    partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."
    (Revelation 18:4) [Please see our article, "The
    Kingdom of God Is at Hand."]
  - THAT'S GOD'S ANSWER insofar as this seduction is concerned!
    - Still, very few people take God's command seriously - EVEN
    MANY WHO HAVE FOR YEARS BEEN A PART OF THIS MINISTRY.
  - [Please see our book, WHAT
    TO DO AS THE END APPROACHES.]
  - AN EXCUSE FOR INACTION
  - hence to do nothing
    is "spiritual" (Christians call it "trusting
    in the Lord"), and "to act" betrays a "rashness"
    that is not only carnal, but "ungodly" and "untrusting."
  - YES! - WE LIVE IN AN "IN-BETWEEN TIME"
  - Yes, we are living in an "In-Between" time - a time that God
    IN HIS GREAT MERCY has bequeathed to us. I am afraid,
    however, that most people - people who should know better -
    are not taking advantage of this gift from God, and have instead
    fearfully drawn back from the choices before them.
  - [Please see
    our article, "The In-Between Time"
    and "As the Days of Noah Were,
    so Shall also the Coming of the Son of Man Be."]
