"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution.

I have the Confederacy before me and the bankers behind me, and for America I fear the bankers most.

"The division of the United States into federations of equal force was decided long before the Civil War by the high financial powers of Europe. These bankers were afraid that the United States, if they remained in one block and as one nation, would attain economic and financial independence, which would upset their financial domination over the world. The voice of the Rothschilds prevailed. Therefore they sent their emissaries into the field to exploit the question of slavery and to open an abyss between the two sections of the Union." - German chancellor Otto von Bismarck

When Abraham Lincoln was assassinated there is speculation he was preparing to abandon international finance and set up an American central bank with the ability to issue currency controlled by Americans. His assasin, John Wilkes Booth, was simply a pawn of foreign finacial interests.

From Salmon P. Chase to Abraham Lincoln, New York, April 15, 1864

My dear Sir,

Thus far every financial measure has been crowned with success; but I have always warned gentlemen in Congress and in the Administration that debt could not be increased indefinitely by selling bonds & issuing notes; and the time has come when taxation and retrenchment must play their parts. ... Next to taxation and retrenchment a uniform national currency is most important. This can be accomplished only through the passage of the National Banking Law now before Congress. ... The National Government will need to pay interest on debt, current expences, &, as long as the war lasts, its extraordinary expences, vast sums from taxes. Duties on imports are the only exclusive resource of the Nation as distinguished from the States. Why should not the National Banks & their property and franchises be added? I see no good reason: while uniform taxation by Congress would put all the Banks throughout the Country upon a equal footing and secure the unity & completeness of the system. ... The National Banking bill should be followed by the bill to tax local bank circulation & prohibit after some fixed period its further issue. ... These two bills will give us what we must have, if success is wanted, a national currency. With the greatest respect & regard

Yours truly S P Chase

{The National Banking Act became law on June 3, 1864}

From James Henderson to Abraham Lincoln, April 27, 1864

Dear Sir ... Mr. Chase's management of the finances of the nation is contrary to the dictates of sound policy or common sense. It seems latterly to consist in promising one thing, and doing another. The letter which I wrote you last fall, giving you the secret history of the sudden decline in stocks in the first week of September 1863, and the rise in the premm. of Gold from 127 to 157 in 5 weeks, because Mr. Chase's friends were short of stocks, should have had its effect upon you to dismiss such a Secretary of the Treasury. The way Mr. Chase benefitted his friends then was by asking the Banks of New York, Boston & Philadelphia to loan Govt. 50 millions, when they were already choked with Govt. Bonds. The disturbance to the money market from this loan resulted in a panic, which puts stocks down 25% and benefitted a class of operators in Gold by a rise of 30% in 5 weeks. Thus the Govt. Credit was injured by the means Chase used, and the Govt. currency depreciated 15 to 20%, which it has never recovered. And I predict is hardly likely to recover while such an incompetent & unprincipled man as Chase is head of the Treasury Department. ... At last, against Mr. Cisco's opinion, and the opinion of every man really a friend to the credit of the Govt, Chase was induced to sell 5 or 6 millions of Government Gold, -- Gold which was laid apart, as Congress directed, sacredly to pay the interest on the National Debt. This is a breach of faith, which you will find will injure the Credit of the United States ... Thus Six millions of Gold were virtually obtained from the Govt at about 165 when the price in the market was from 170 to 180. Then Chase sold on Thursday, Friday & Saturday 14th, 15th & 16th inst some 8 millions Gold from 185 to 166 & also two millions Sterling Exchange from 5 to 12% under what Bankers would have got & have since obtained for Exchange. Selling Gold to put down the premium is only a temporary expedient as Chase well knows. ... To carry out his Bank Scheme, which is more abominable than even legal tender money, he resolves to destroy, if he can, the City & State Banks ... To do this he instructed his agents here, not Mr Cisco, for he preferred not mixing himself up in any such atrocious scheme to hurt individual interests, to keep the cheques for several millions, say 6 or 7 millions Dollars, & present them to the City Banks all at once & demand Greenbacks or legal tender money. He had previously made this money scarce, temporarily, for God knows there is enough of it, by selling Duties for paper money against [Cost?]; & then he & his friend predicted that the State Banks must fail.

Well the cheques were presented in heavy amounts at an early hour in the morning, & then began a panic in Stock Market, from calling in of loans, & many men lost heavily, some houses failed, and the Street was filled with all sorts of rumors. But the City Banks did not fail, as Thompson of the 1st National Bank of N. Y. predicted that they would, and Gold did not go down lower than 167% Premm in all the panic & falsified the prediction of Jay Cooke of Phila. & relative of Chase, that Gold would sell from 140 to 150. But the effect has been this Govt Stocks went down 10% & many persons who held these Govt Stocks have been frightened at such abominable action of the Govt as represented by Chase, & have sold out, & I believe a very large number of these men will have nothing more to do with sustaining the Govt. Credit. The Banks are aroused to the unprincipled action of Chase & his stock-jobbing friends, & will resist, as they should, the National Banks; The Gold Market only went down till Chase stopped selling & has since gone up & now will be higher than ever. How will Chase get back this Gold? By paying 200 or over for it. Why? Because the importations are so heavy & because nearly every Govt Bond will come back from Europe.

Yours -- James Henderson

John J. Cisco was the assistant treasurer of the United States and treasurer of the assay office at New York.

Jay Cooke, a Philadelphia banker and financier, was a close friend and advisor of Secretary Chase. Jay Cooke's relationship with Rothschild was instrumental in aiding Chase's efforts to obtain loans for the government during the war.

Money is simply a method to facilitate trade in resources, services and products.

Abraham Lincoln's desire for dominant federal government control of the Confederated States of America directly caused the deaths of nearly a million people. Abraham Lincoln initial idea of freeing the slaves was meant to hasten the collapse of the Confederated States of America. Beginning in the early weeks of the Civil War, thousands of fugitive slaves or "contrabands" fled to Washington, DC. The federal government responded by crowding the African-American men, women, and children into hastily prepared contraband camps that supplied insufficient food and clothing, had little or no sanitation, and were breeding grounds for infectious diseases. Abraham Lincoln formulated a plan to repatriate the enslaved African Americans back to Africa. This plan was abandoned as unfeasibly expensive.

"In 1862 several Minnesota Dakota Sioux tribes of Native Americans revolted against the United States. General John Pope was sent to quell the uprising. General John Pope initiated military tribunals and sentenced 303 warriors to be executed by hanging. Some trials lasted less than 5 minutes. Abraham Lincoln, needing the vote in Minnesota, selected 38 individuals who were promptly hanged. Abraham Lincoln carried Minnesota in the next election and is the only president to order a mass hanging." - Robert Pisapia

The Sioux were members of the Cherokee Nation, residing in the Carolinas, before they were forcibly relocated.

The Sioux then became a horse people dependent upon the horse for their newly nomadic lifestyle.

By 1862 the Great Sioux Nation, Oceti Sakowin or Seven Council Fires, stretched from the Big Woods of Minnesota to the Rocky Mountains. There were seven Sioux tribes, including three western tribes, collectively called the Lakota, and four eastern tribes living in Minnesota and the eastern Dakotas called the Dakota.

After an uprising caused by the breaking of a treaty - non-payment of promised funds - the federal government abolished the Dakota reservation, declared all previous treaties with the Dakota Sioux null and void, and undertook proceedings to expel the Dakota Sioux entirely from Minnesota. To this end, a bounty of $25 per scalp was paid. 1,600 Dakota Sioux were rounded up and held in a fortified camp on Pike Island below Fort Snelling in the winter of 1862–1863.

The Minnesota Dakota Sioux War of 1862 was the first violent engagement between the Sioux and the United States. The battle of Killdeer Mountain occurred in 1864, Red Cloud's War followed in 1866–1868, and the Battle of Little Big Horn in 1876 and the Great Sioux Nation was permently defeated as a nation at the massacre of Wounded Knee in 1890.

The Sioux were a deeply spiritual people, believing in one all-pervasive god, Wakan Tanka, or the Great Mystery. Religious visions were cultivated and the people communed with the spirit realm through music and dance.

The Sioux considered the Black Hills to be sacred. In 1868, the federal government signed the Fort Laramie Treaty, exempting the Black Hills from all white settlement forever. The discovery of gold in Black Hills in 1874 started the conflict between the United States and Lakota Sioux. The Lakota Sioux refused to sell their sacred land.

Many historians today believe that the Ulysses S. Grant administration deliberately provoked the war by advertising gold in the Black Hills to relieve the pressure of the Panic of 1873. In 1875 the Commissioner of Indian Affairs declared that non-reservation bands of Sioux were subject to arrest. During the 1875 - 1878 gold rush, thousands of miners went to the Black Hills; in 1880, the area was the most densely populated part of Dakota Territory. In 1980, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the Black Hills were illegally taken.

The 7th Cavalry, a veteran organization created just after the Civil War, under General George A. Custer was requested to force the Lakota Sioux bands onto the newly delineated tribal reservation. On June 15, 1876, the Battle of the Little Big Horn between the 7th Cavalry and Lakota Sioux took place at Little Big Horn in which Custer's unit was massacred.

In February 1890, the United States government broke a final treaty by adjusting the Great Sioux Reservation of South Dakota, an area that formally encompassed the majority of the state, into five relatively smaller reservations. This was done to accommodate homesteaders from the east and was in accordance with the government’s clearly stated "policy of breaking up tribal relationships" and "conforming Indians to the white man’s ways, peaceably if they will, or forcibly if they must." Once on the half-sized reservations, tribes were separated into family units on 320 acre plots, forced to farm, raise livestock, and send their children to boarding schools that forbade any inclusion of Native American traditional culture and language.

Many of the Lakota people believed in the Ghost Dance as the movement spread. The federal government feared the Ghost Dance and ordered the arrest of Sitting Bull on the Standing Rock Reservation. In the process Sitting Bull was shot dead on December 15, 1890.

The Hunkpapa who lived in Sitting Bull's camp fled south onto the Cheyenne River Reservation. The 7th Cavalry caught them at a place called Wounded Knee on December 29, 1890. The 7th Cavalry took all the weapons from the Hunkpapa Lakota people and then massacred 300 people at Wounded Knee thus ending the Sioux-United States war.

"When the rain of ammunition ceased, over 300 Lakota people lay dead from gunfire, cannon fire, or manual butchering within the encampment and within adjacent ravines up to two miles away. The dead were Lakota men who had been disarmed before the weapons fire began, women, many with babes in arms or waiting to be born, and children. The soldiers walked away from their crime against humanity and left the dead where they lay. That night, the sky cried snow and the warm winter wind of peace was supplanted by the cold winter wind of grief. For four days, the dead laid where they were, frozen into grotesque shapes of lifelessness. Finally, the soldiers came and loaded the dead like cordwood in wagons, and hauled their loads to hastily dug mass graves, where the dead were thrown in - the bodies of men, women, and children whose spirits walked the encampment and ravines, wailing. Twenty-seven Congressional Medals of Honor for "bravery" were awarded to the soldiers who participated in that heinous murder for their parts in fighting the allegedly hostile "war parties" attacking them that day." - Wanbli Sapa

Simple question:

Is the federal government of the people, by the people and for the people?

And if so which group of American people so represented believe that freedom can be won by the domination and destruction of human life?

Very few of our elected representatives, which includes all the executive decision makers from the president on down to city councilman, exercise their power in a truly Christian manner. Unless, being an uneducated Christian, I missed one of Jesus's lessons, you know, the one where Jesus requests his followers to kill, persecute and revile their neighbors - you know - incite war and genocide.

Our elected represenatives represent the corporate elites, the plutocratic oligarchists and American aristocracy, they do not and can never represent true Christians or ordinary working Americans.

This website defines a new religious ideology to which its author adheres. The author feels that the falsification of reality outside personal experience has created a populace unable to discern propaganda from reality and that this has been done purposefully by an international corporate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reality on the human race. Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their religious ideology. This web site marks the founding of the religion aptly named The Truth of the Way of Life - a rational religion based on reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is encouraged to develop a personal relation with God through the pursuit of the knowledge of reality in the hope of curing the spiritual corruption that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of The Truth of the Way of Life are spelled out in detail on this web site by the author. Violent acts against individuals due to their religious beliefs in America is considered a “hate crime.”

This web site in no way condones violence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the violence that is already occurring due to the international corporate cartels desire to control the human race. The international corporate cartel already controls the world central banking system, mass media worldwide, the industrial military entertainment complex of America and is responsible for the collapse of morals, the elevation of self-centered behavior and the destruction of global ecosystems. Civilization is based on cooperation. Cooperation does not occur at the point of a gun.

American social mores and values have declined precipitously over the last century as the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the populace in general through mass media by pressing emotional buttons which have been preprogrammed into the population through prior mass media psychological operations. The results have been the destruction of the family and the destruction of social structures that do not adhere to the corrupt international elites vision of a perfect world. Through distraction and coercion the direction of thought of the bulk of the population has been directed toward solutions proposed by the corrupt international elite that further consolidates their power and which further their purposes.
