OUT OF BOUNDS

Our modern world is not the first "new world order."  The American dollar is engraved with the Great Pyramid of ancient Egypt.  Orders bequeath enlightenment to the few, indoctrination to the many, and for the leadership types among the discontented, the executioner is king.  The reasons for the way of official things - "the secret causes of violence and wars" (Nikolai Lenin) - are nowhere apparent in official pronouncements.  As they once were mysterious, so are they now secret - as secret as any bygone Mystery Cult - but now the steps to enlightenment are the hidden canons of the National Security faith.  Religion as the ruling force we once obeyed has tilted its Janus face toward a military mask.  Where the faithful were once denied entry into the Temples of Amun where only the priest class could go, so now are citizens denied access to matters of life, death, liberty and the pursuit of happiness -- beyond artificial bounds.  This is the domain of the classification priesthood.

 

            Contingency plans for the initiation of conflict - Armageddon - carry the death penalty upon disclosure.  The National Emergency Measures Act - detailed plans for the imposition of a police state in times of vehement public protest against government policy - are privy to the high priests of national security alone.  The shadows of the past, and of a forbidding future, cover the ground.  Few are those who ask what is casting them, though we all pose the question in our dreams.

 

"When we see a lot of framed timbers, different portions of which we know have been gotten out at different times and places and by different workmen, and when we see these timbers joined together and see that they exactly make the frame of a house or a mill, all the lengths and proportions of the different pieces exactly adapted to their respective places, and not a piece too many or too few, not omitting even scaffolding, or if a single piece be lacking, we can see the place in the frame exactly fitted and prepared to yet bring such piece in; in such case, we find it impossible to not believe that they all understood one another from the beginning, and all worked upon a common plan or draft drawn up before the first lick was struck."

 

--  Abraham Lincoln

 

Did Lincoln know whereof he spoke?  What he was describing, after all, was conspiracy.  In our society, though the streets hum with rumors of the hidden, evil deeds and plans of the rulership, conspiracy is a laughing matter at the levels of academic and political discussion.  The very existence of a "rulership" is denied explicitly.  The very concept of a "ruler" is political anathema in America.  The assertion that there are such rulers, here, in combination with the further assertion that such rulers could be engaged in criminal pursuits deliberately hidden from the view of the electorate, is not only repugnant to the voter, it is frightening.
