Can anyone confirm that Don Bradley, author of "America: 2000 and beyond", was murdered 12/1/99? Went to his website after someone mentioned in a previous thread that he was murdered today and only a memorium, everything else is gone.

For those of you who aren't aware Don Bradley broke a story about "alleged" concentration camps in america in April '99 I think. He was also in the middle of a nonfiction work, america:2000 and beyond. The half finished work is here:

http://www.don-bradley.com/pub/A2000.html

You can see what he has written and what he had lined up. If it turns out that indeed he was murdered then I suspect his work will aquire a new level of credence. Here's his main page:

Any confirmation or other info would be GREATLY appreciated!

"You are not authorized to view this page" Anyone else having this prob w/the Bradley links? I'm not familiar with his work, so wanted to looksee outta curiosity, but each thread with a link to him has failed for me.

-- Hokie (nn@nn.com), December 02, 1999.

Link worked for me. Here's a sample:

The idea behind this lies in the Brookings Report, a little known government document that is still controlling the release of information to the world at large. The Brookings Report, done in the early sixties at the behest of the US government, is a study which clearly states that mankind is a panicky, nervous flock of unconscious animals whose perception of reality can never be changed too radically as this human animal will self-destruct. The full name of the Brookings Report is "Proposed Studies on the Implications of Peaceful Space Activities for Human Affairs", and the U of M catalog lists the author as Donald N. Michael. Out of a 272 page report, the question of the impact of discovering ETs occupies a paragraph in the summary on p 30 (1961 edition), page 215 and the top third of page 216, and three long footnotes on pages 225 and 226. (As far as I could tell -- the report doesn't have an index.) The report, which is now bible with politicians worldwide, is a condemnation on the human spirit and its ability to absorb information that challenges the status quo.

Even this report, which is cited clearly as being the foundation for how governments should relate to and deal with the release of information to the general public, is a smoke screen for issues far darker than saving the people from themselves. The agenda that lies behind this is often something that many do not want to consider. Clearly, those in camp one have acted upon these lines when we consider how much in the United States and the world has been covered up by those agencies responsible for handling the investigation of phenomenon in our times. This phenomenon is no less than

The emergence and presence of Extra-Terrestrials on a massive scale since 1947. To put it more succinctly, since the development of nuclear power, Ets are here and concerned with humankind's development. They have established treaties with many governments (well documented) and are not only watching our world, but using many humans for their own genetic programs. Some are from higher, more spiritual worlds, and lovingly look out for humanity. Some ETS are clearly dark-hearted in their purpose and use animals and humans for purposes that are destructive to our own temple, the human body. The emergence and obvious presence of an elite military/oil cabal that will brook no interference with its own agendas regarding how the world should be run. This loose group of power mad families clearly care little for the fate of the average human being and have demonstrated over and over again their willingness to destroy anything or anyone who might get in the way of their goals. That goal is nothing short of global slavery of the many to serve the few. A tremendous amount of evidence exists on who these people are and how they use government intelligence agencies to further their objectives.

The explosion of spiritual souls now in incarnation who are making inroads into every aspect of life. When an individual soul or organization comes too close to freeing rather large segments of the population, these individuals are removed via assassination. Thousands have died mysteriously from heart attacks; others are shot from grassy knolls; many just simply vanish without a trace, their bodies tortured more from frustration than to obtain information.

-- Count Vronsky (vronsky@anna.lit), December 02, 1999.

Got an email from a guy who said he was found shot in the back of the head at his mountain retreat north of Silverton. When the local rancher/sherrif discovered the body, army personnel showed up to take over the investigation. The sherrif was told to "butt out." His words.

Don had released some audio tapes on the camps and had finished his book. Hope they find the ms before the feds do.

Nothing in the papers. His family is in mourning.

-- spooky times (Time@to.split), December 02, 1999.

This is some of what Don Bradley wrote back in April '99. He also said he was sure that he would be killed within a year by TPTB (hung from a sour apple tree, or something like that).

Concentration Camps in America? - DON BRADLEY

4/19/99

That's right boys and girls, your government is training - right now - for enslaving you people. Look at the training pictures we just got from a National Guard facility [pictures wouldn't copy over to this thread], with US ARMY personnel training around the clock for handling prisoners. Now compare these photographs with the pictures we have on the hundreds of sites and you'll notice that they ARE NOT training for Kosovo, but for here in the USofA. Don't you just love your elected officials. Feel all warm and fuzzy inside right now do you? Still think that your vote matters one bit? It get's much worse, when you start putting the pieces of the puzzle together. Look at the evidence, which is conclusive and well- documented. 1. ALL US military forces, for the last 2 YEARS have been training day and night on American cities - with live ammo - practicing house to house search and seizures of property and personnel. OPERATION URBAN WARRIOR. 2. US military agencies under the auspices of FEMA and the CIA have, since 1994, been quietly building hundreds of holding camps and final- destination camps. 3. Reno and Clinton (and their speech mongers in the Justice dept) start a verbal campaign against US citizens who study, are religious, and think for themselves. 4. Fake Bombings like OKC are blamed on "militia types." 5. To disarm the population, Feinstein and Boxer start a slew of gun- control ops that essentially take america's weapons away by summer 1999. Sick as it will sound, it is by no coincidence that these shootings that so horrify the nation and the world are found to have been committed by those already under psychiatric care. Looking at the background of these doctors, we discover that lo and behold, they are/were once working for the military/CIA. 6. In February 1999, the Air Force starts spraying cities with low- grade anthrax, poisoning Americans and setting the stage for a "bio- warfare incident," with "militia types" as the patsy. 7. Operation Grizzly Bear kicks in. Red, Green, and Blue list people are rounded up for extermination at various levels of Martial Law. Red list - one to six weeks prior; blue list - on or about the time of Martial Law; green list, sent for re-education and are made slave laborers...sentenced to life imprisonment with no trial, hearings, and made to work forever under harsh conditions. 8. A bio warfare incident occurs and the National Guard is mobilized. 9. Feeling sick and told they are poisoned, millions of Americans line up for "vaccinations." Those who don't...GET SENT TO CAMPS for their own good. 10. They are never heard from again. 11. Martial Law is underway and the White House announces on the now "state controlled" radio and TV, that all Americans must, within 72 hours, go to their local post office and register themselves and their family members, as well as turn in their weapons for destruction. Those who do not comply...get rounded up. End of story.

2. Sadly, a certain person (DH) has been of late using this information and passing it off as his own research. That's fine. Steal it Dave. Use it to help people...but you can't, can you? No, instead, Dave has done nothing but call up my friends and lie to them (recorded on several tapes) claiming I sent him to these same friends; I now state publicly that I have never given any personal phone numbers to either SF or DH. I will have nothing to do with such a lying fraud. Dave then writes up articles decrying the camps as "debunked" but we notice that his article does not deal with any facts, nor has this DH person ever even left his state as of 8-1-99 to investigate these camps and their locations. He does nothing but lie. He is gettting Americans killed with his slander.

Signs

"Do we not provide, in all ways and in all things? The problem prevails that the watchman remains asleep at his post, to the ruin of all."

After managing to get this far through the book, the reader no doubt may be wondering how they might discern those signs and portents which will indicate beyond all doubt that the time has come for complacency or action. First, we must define exactly what these terms mean so that there will be no misconstruing with regard to the message and tone of this and other chapters in this book. If youve decided to do nothing, than farewell and may you find what you think you are looking for. You are a weight upon the shoulders of servants and little more. You have failed yourself and your fellow human beings. If perchance you see that you must at least try, then after thorough research on your own to resolve any doubts, you are convinced that things "rotten in Denmark." You want to be counted on the same side of the fence as Ghandi, Washington, JFK, King, and Lincoln, then the following outline is for you.

Topographical maps disappear from the shelves nor can they be easily found. Once the Feds realize that people are starting to get outdoors and do a little of their own surveying of the countryside, the government printing office will pull the remaining maps and stop all shipments of these valuable tools to commercial outlets. Even the commercial atlas providers will stop supplying them, under orders from a bureaucrat who is dangling an audit over their head or threatening pulling their business license. Make no mistake that such Machiavellian devices are being deployed against the public via the red tape of the bureaucracy. This ploy is being used even now to ammunition suppliers and weapons manufacturers.

Military surplus becomes all but impossible to find in good condition. The very gear you seem to need the most is unavailable, except for worn out junk or those supplies that are mostly useless in the field. Many so-called camping gear necessities fall apart after one or two uses, making the need for getting US Army issue paramount. This lack of availability has two causes: demand and the military holding on to the surplus that it usually sells each year for profit. Both of these conditions are already in effect at this time.

Military jets, which from time memorial have been forbidden to fly low over US cities, change their flight patterns over urban and suburban areas. The reason for this is two-fold. First, to condition the public into becoming relaxed at the sight of such weapons of destruction and, secondly, to give pilots flight pattern familiarity with these potential combat zones. Pilots love to fly and if they will spray the cities with chemical weapons, they will have no problem coming down on the deck and breaking the sound barrier ten times a day to get a city used to the sound, roar, and noise of mach class jet fighters.

You notice National Guard maneuvers in your area, when theyve never been there beforeever. Watch for an increase in such vehicles on your highways, freeways, and thoroughfares. If you can go any seven- day period and see these vehicles on your roads, than things are very near. This is training. Command centers are being established and company and regimental commanders are getting a feel of things and getting their equipment in place. The Army isnt stupid. Why do you think, that for two years, every branch of the service is heavily involved in Operation Urban Warrior exercisesnot for the current (May 1999) lie of Kosovo; that is a recent conflict. Think it through peopleit takes the Pentagon three to five years to setup up a plan of that magnitude. They openly admit that. That means Urban Warrior has been around since1992. Who knew from Albanian refugees in 1992? See the bigger picture now?

Ammunition in bulk is almost impossible to find or purchase. Since the shootings at schools in 1997, 1998, and 1999 the President has all but decreed the restriction of ammo to the population. As of this writing, all surplus ammunition has been frozen for resale to the public. Imports are being held at the docks. Prices on ammo are skyrocketing. Kmart has completely stopped selling ammunition in most of its stores, same with the other big sports outlets. What with Customs seizing ammo imports on nonsensical techinical reasons since December of 1998, this is just the beginning.

It becomes extremely difficult to find any kind of weapon, especially self-loaders. Dare I say itgun control by emotion and decree? When was the last time you visited a gun store? Try to buy a weapon lately? Were you told that there are now, all kinds of forms and complications in getting a weapon? If you can find a gun, its usually not what you wanted or was priced so very high as to make it extremely unaffordable. As 1999 rolls into 2000 watch our country implement a freeze of some kind on weapons purchases. It may not be something overt, but the effect will be the same. Extremeextreme difficulty in obtaining a self-defense or hunting weapon with any kind of capacity over five rounds.

There is a great deal of earth-moving equipment suddenly showing up in the National Parks, as well as an increased presence of Federal Agents wearing Park Ranger uniforms. If you are one of those folks who likes to camp out and get into nature, be watchful for signs of heavy construction vehicles near the entrances to your favorite camping spots. The Feds know people will flee to that which they know and are comfortable with; that means campgrounds they probably have visited in the past. They will be waiting for you there and then youll discover the reason for all those graders and tractors: a holding camp in the hills, filled with thousands of people, just like you.

There will be several trucks filled with signs parked in the parking lots of local police. Watch these parking lots with care. The day you notice many covered trucks parked in these lots, there may be as little as two weeks before things break loose. If you can get a chance, catch a cop as he or she leaves their station and ask them what the trucks are for. What their faces closelycops are consumate liarsthey lie a hundred times a day. They are taught to lie from day one. Ask any honest cop, theyll tell you.

Most of our combat troops are overseas on some peacekeeping mission. If the day comes that Americans find that a few hundred thousand of our armed forces have been deployed in another country, start watching the docks for foreign troops off-loading onto US soil. They will arrive by ship. It cant hurt to work out a plan where a group of friends agree to go by the docks at least once a week on rotation. This will keep your group apprised of this very dangerous development. The importation of foreign soldiers on US soil means only one thing: they are here to do a job that American soldiers are unwilling to do. The only thing that is, for Americans, is to shoot other Americans as they stand against a wall.

There is an increased frequency and presence of UH-1H helicopters, regardless of paint scheme; the same goes with Blackhawk choppers, used to airlift tanks, jeeps, and personnel.

Long-term foodstuffs quietly disappear from the store shelves. This includes rice, bullion stock, jerked beef, and many other items of similar type.

If you are a member of the militia or are a Patriot, you notice a step-up in your surveillance. Red List. Those who have taken a public position that they will stand in armed resistance to any government junta or seizure of liberties are considered by the Intelligence Agencies as the FIRST TO DIE. The men, women, and children of the Militias in America can expect no mercy from these devils. They have proven beyond doubt that they will murder Militia members in their beds, from long-range sniping, and from planting evidence. If you are now at this time a member in good standing in any state Militia, you have a lot to think about these days. You, more than most people, should be thinking along the lines of a survival retreat or a complete about face in your public persona. Read my section about a "Wolf in Sheeps clothing." It just may keep you alive a little while.

Your local water reservoirs get recent and new fencing, with barbed wire pointing inward.

The major post offices in your area now have holding yards, barbed- wire pointing inward, surveillance cameras, and bullet proof glass installations.

There are reports of aerial spraying and more often than not, when you look in the sky you see chemtrails that last for hours and spread over the horizon.

The water out of the tap tastes funny.

For some amazing reason, the CDC is calling for nationwide immunization.

Claiming a "clear and present danger" the President calls for a complete registration of all weapons held by Americans. This announcement will follow a very convenient tragedyinvolving children with great loss of life.

There is a census to be taken and compliance is enforced with stiff and visible prison sentences. The new census will be profound in its scope. We dont have the details as we go to press, but we are certain that it will leave no stone unturned. The National Census grows more invasive and complicated each decade.

There is implementation of a National ID system. See the section on this first step in the global plan to mark the cattle with a brand; believe it. This is their goal.

One day, it will happen upon America that it has suffered yet another mindless terrorist attack by a disgruntled loner who hates the system and wants to destroy it.

The phones start going dead, at certain times of the day, for no apparent reason. Your phone taps are being reset or the agents are bored and are messing with you. As many field agents have so stated since they left the service, part of their job was to aggravate and intimidate surveillance suspects, regardless if they were criminals or not. Those under surveillance can expect their mail missing for days, coming in torn up, as well as a host of other, childish and annoying pranks. The agents are bored and supervision encourages such harassment activities to help wear down the person under such tyranny. These people are ruthless. Many have admitted in court testimony in hundreds of trials over the decades that they have killed pets, letft lewd messages, and have even made sexual advances to the spouse of the family member under surveillanceall with your tax dollars.

The electricity goes off. Brownouts start becoming commonplace to the point of being a daily occurrence. This, again, is conditioning. Getting the people used to having shortages. Remember, part of their plan is to induce shortages to the point where the public will be begging for the government to step in and run things. Of course, the big lie is that the savior and the problem are one and the same entity. Problem, Reaction, Solutionthe CIA way.

You hear a low-pitched ringing in your ears. This is the ELF frequency, which a certain percentage of the population will be able to hear, as they do when they are around high voltage power lines. If you feel nauseous and hear this tone, you are being impacted by these waves intentionally. It is the very same frequency given off by the Earth when there is about to be an earth tremor or quake. Many sensitives pick this up all the time and the phenomenon is usually localized to a region. Not any more.

It becomes difficult to concentrate for very long. Also, you feel like you cant remember anything. To destabilize the public, they will (and are doing so already) send out via the TV, ultra-low frequency waves in the 14 Hz range, which causes irritability, sleeplessness, and memory lapses. Those who the government considers dangerous already are exposed to such things. Part of their surveillance includes being dosed with beams of this type from convenient white, Ford econoline vans which tend to park near the residence of such a person. If you find that your home and office has the same "type of van" (whit, no side or rear windows, cage dividing the front seat form the back area) always around, but with no occupant, then you are receiving this kind of treatment. You will also notice more and frequent headaches, shortness of breath, and difficulty with your bowel movements.

Car Accidents rise dramatically, though the truth of these statistics will be consciously withheld from the people. As ELF transmissions sweep through the hinterlands of this country, people will have grand- mal seizures, memory lapses, and spastic fits, due to the electrical imbalance in the cerebral cortex. HAARP in action. Also, every electronic ignition device built in a car either imported or sold in the United States is equipped with a low-impulse microwave switch and your car or truck registration is keyed to that device. They can, by satellite, disable any car on this continent. When Martial is declared and they are having a problem in an area, they can literally shut down every car on the road, if it was make since 1984. This explains the big push in recent years to have bans on any car made prior to that year by the Dept. of Commerce.

If you are a Patriot, gun-owner, and have been outspoken about your feelings, you can expect at least one inexplicable burglary, with very little or nothing at all taken from your home/business. Expect also, your car to be vandalized or tampered with in some way. One of the requirements field agents must do to someone they have under a "box-surveillance" is to break into their home and office to install bugs, plant trojan horses into the persons personal computer, and get a feel of what they are doing by photographing their desk and its contents. This is standard procedure for ALL Federal Agencies here in America, bar none.

The news becomes decidedly slanted toward the problems of guns, crime, and drugs. "Something must be done!" Becomes the jingoistic war cry from the corporate faces on TV. This conditioning phase is designed to get the subconscious of the public inline with willfully giving over their weapons for the "sake of the children." It is a sure-sign that we are being readied for the slaughter. The plan of disarmament always precedes genocidewithout exception in history. Sadly, this already describes perfectly the state of affairs right now with the compliant, lap-dog media and the government gun- grabbers. Thank you, HCI and CIA.

You have to fill out new employment forms at work, with data requirements so completely personal as to be invasions of privacy; failure to do so will result in government enforced termination of your employment. Any complaint has already been decided to be handled with this implied attitude, "whats the mattergot something to hide?" This will usually get compliance. Read the section in this book on National ID.

You hear of or see for yourself, new road posts being put in the ground, but with no signage affixed. If you find sign posts going up on major intersections on highways appearing overnight, try and find a crew that is installing them and ask why they are not putting up the signage. Their answers will reveal much, even if they truly have no knowledge of what may end up on these posts; that a crew would be kept in the dark about something that should be so mundane as a french-fry shows that their ignorance is for a reason.

There are strange stickers with RED, BLUE, GREEN, ORANGE, YELLOW, and BLACK color-coded symbols in no language at all. These can be found on the reverse side of street signs such as freeway markers, highway signs, stop signs, caution signs, etc. These are special transit locational grid markers for those troops who cannot understand English and who find our system of roadways very confusing. Such signs are designed with simplicity in mind by keeping all coordinates to metric, military style terrain maps.

If all of the above is visibly taking place for all to seewho will see, that isthan look to your own resources and start taking those steps that will have you in your place of safety or sanctuary. With this in place, it may be hours, days, or a few weeks. You should be quietly gathering your group or family together and, with a prearranged plan to explain your absences from work and other situations, quietlyvery quietlyget to safety. Without delay.

Its fair to say that anyone or group that attempts to live outside of the system of society will find new challenges waiting for them. How they overcome these challenges and develop strength of character is largely determined by how they have lived their lives so far. You are the best measure of you, knowing better than anyone what you are capable of.

Surviving 21st Century Life

By Don Bradley

There is no doubt that much of the information in this book is disturbing. Those in the media who will bother to review this material, will do so only to slander the author, imply instability, and hopefully so label me a nut-case that any prospective reader will be dissuaded from getting a copy. Also, even though most of my books at one time could be found in bookstores, once the intelligence apparatus realized this book was on its way, they had the bookstore chains drop my entire line of books. Chances are, you didnt purchase this book from a chain bookstore. They wont carry it, because, as Richard Helms and William Colby (both former Directors of the CIA) have often pointed out, "we own anybody of any significance in the media."

The reason is obvious. This book threatens to unravel their plans somewhat. Though far from comprehensive, the idea of the book was to

Get people aware of what was happening to them,

Get the right questions asked by as many people as possible, and

Get information out there so others could further investigate the issues brought forward in this treatise.

Still, knowing as we do that weve little time before events so accelerate that we can no longer function as we have in the last few hundred years, the big question on every ones mind should be, "what can we do about it?" To that end, it was decided to create a blue- print of beingness so that a way through the wilderness might be provided for those men, women, and children who still believe that self-determination is a human beings right, here on planet Earth.

The plans of those forces who wish to enslave humanity have been well- stated in the preceding chapters, and that in great detail. Knowing that we must work with these circumstances until the One Masters way can again be made for his arrival (that way is determined by no less than you, the people) the overall plan must include

An increasing response to the spirit of Love.

An enhanced capacity for group consciousness.

Exocentric activityas opposed to egocentric activity.

Service as a way of life.

Greater responsiveness to intelligent application of group and community responsibility.

Leadership qualities demonstrated as a fact of life.

Increasing radiance of the three primary aspects of a loving, serving, and selfless soul.

The above seven points of beingness are absolutely necessary for survival and creating those conditions necessary for the advancement of humanity to the next level  the return of the so-called garden of Eden and Heavens/Hierarchys rule again on Earth. Lets look at each point and see how these qualities are necessary for working within the next phase of survival, which can then be implemented and taught to others in our emerging New World.

Increasing response to the spirit of Love.

What is that spirit? It is thinking of others needs before our own. It is doing without so that another may benefit. It is seeing the good in all things everywhere, so that this discovered "good" might have a chance at expression. It is revealing in ones expression, that inner fount of joy and radiance that so defines a loving soul. We could write a thousand pages on this, but would rather leave any ideas regarding the very nature of our essenceLOVEto your own conclusions and expressions.

If any of the above are lacking in your honest appraisal of yourself, then seek to make those changestoday, not tomorrowthat will turn things around for you. Do not delay, unnecessarily.

An enhanced capacity for group consciousness.

This, though appearing a simple and easily applied concept, is for many the most difficult. It requires of the soul to alwaysalways think of others before ones self. A simple test to see if we are, in fact, living this principle in our daily lives, is to ask ourselves, after we think, feel, say, or do anything

Did that expression bring myself closer to others? Every action based upon the spirit of Lovethe very spirit that is the atoms and molecules of the human soulbuilds bridges. If our actions separate and divide us and others from the true nature of things, then it is obvious that there is something blocking love in our life. A reading of Saraydarians book JOY and HEALING will be a good place to start repairing our inner wiring and get our antennae fixed so we can again hear love, then be an expression of that same love.

Did that word or act separate myself from others or create cleavages between others?

Was my own situation my primary consideration?

Did I rationalize my behavior, as I always do? (This is what everyone does, when their Soul exposes their selfish thoughts, feelings, and actions to their consciousness.)

Did I injure another to raise my own self?

Was I defensive? (Very common and this from everyone.)

Was I reacting in fear? (Again, this describes most people.)

Could I perceive joy flooding my beingness after I said, did, or felt this or that thing? (If the answer is no, then your action, thought, or feeling was selfish.)

Exocentric activityas opposed to egocentric activity.

Using the evening review principle of spending a few minutes each day and observing our behavior, we can discern whether most of our actions, words, and feelings were spent for the many or the one.

Service as a way of life.

Service is a spontaneous outpouring of love at any given time. True service is using that fount of love in a dynamic pattern of beingness that is expressed easily in our daily life.

Greater responsiveness to intelligent application of group and community responsibility.

Happy to get problems, knowing that problems bring skills, solutions, and new ways of living and being, the man, woman, or child that looks upon his or her life with such an attitude is most definitely a leadera world class leader. Does this describe you? Do you moan when yet another obstacle appears in your path? Do you whine constantly about how much you have to do? Are you negative toward those lights in your orbit who bring problems to your door? If you can even remotely answer yes to any of the above, you are not yet in tune with true Leadership and are not yet ready to be a focal point of service, change, and beingness for others.

Leadership qualities demonstrated as a fact of life.

Leaders dont moan, complain, or react to circumstances. They never act in fear or selfishness. Leaders

Provide solutions.

Are already three steps ahead of potential problems, because they have taken the time to problem-solve their situations in their minds and in their planning. When a problem appears, they smile, knowing it was inevitable.

Are a source of unflagging strength and vision for others.

Are in tune with their environment and the hearts of their people.

Are dynamic "doers."

Look at old methods and activities, constantly looking for improvements.

Are deeply connected with the Spirit of Love and express love and will simultaneously in their words, actions, and thoughts.

Increasing radiance of the three primary aspects of a loving, serving, and selfless soul.

This one is the most difficult. To express ones innate fount of love, kindness, decency, truth, and intelligence requires the constant application of these same qualities over and above our petty emotions, reactionary thinking patters, and slothful tendencies to inertia. However, unless we can find a way to increase our own love, light, and power, we are doomed to failure. It will require a loving heart to think of others before ones selfa necessary quality to survival of any group no matter how large or small. Creative and inspired thought must be the order of the day, if we are to problem solve each crisis as it presents itself. To act decisively and for the better of all concerned, our life must be one of dynamic activity, with total control over of body and its negative urges.

It will be observed that the above principles appear to be different aspects of the same issue. Of course. Love is love. No matter what how it expresses itself in our life, it is the same energy. I know several Christians who fool themselves into believing they are Disciples of Christ. Yet, all their actions, words, and thoughts are wholly selfish and without any light whatsoever. They know it. Thats why they spend so much time rationalizing their actions to others and leaving Bibles on porches; unable to express love, they sheepishly hand over His Book and then scamper away. If you are aware of such things, simply turn it around by making those efforts necessary to change your old ways of living into news ways of loving. Its easy, if you give yourself half a chance and stop making excuses so that you can remain lazy, heartless, and selfish.

Blueprint for surviving 21st Century life.

Once weve done the inner, esoteric work of linking to the Christ in each of us, we can then formulate plans for actualizing in the years to come. In many ways, this is easy, considered against the battleground of the heart. This mostly involves preparation and mundane taskseasy. Weve taken great pains to upload onto the web site, http://www.don-bradley.com all the various files on survival and the like.

There will be two groups of survivors in the coming century. Group One will be part of the system, though rebelling at every chance to undermine the system he or she is chained to. Their actions will be limited to support of the rebels in the hills whenever possible and in educating those around them that "changes need to be made. Someone needs to act." Members of this group will be the focus of the MJTF, the National Guard, and the FBI. They will be sought out and killed. They will be under constant surveillance. Until they learn stealth and survival skills within the system, many of these members wont last very long.

Group Two will be those families and enclaves who, because they chose to be an educator during Phase One, had to head to the hills to avoid extermination. These are the rebels, so often talked about in Star Wars. They will be trained in the arts of survival and will function like cells in the old French Resistance. They will liberate prisoners, spread communications, share the truth about the camps, reveal the locations of the mass graves, and help others into safety. This group will be hunted by the military with planes, rockets, helicopters and ground support. Most will die in the field; those captured will be tortured to death, as they were in Europe in the 1930s and 1940s.

However, it will be through the collaboration of these two groups that success will finally emerge. Through those within the system and who are able to get information and supplies to those outside the system, the plans of those men and women who want to rule with an iron fist our country can be compromised. Silent heroes will rise, working quietly toward eliminating fascism in this countrythen eventually the world. The spotlight for such souls means extermination. Unlike the author of this book, these wise souls will know when to act and when to appear as a sheep. In fact, Ive devoted an entire section in this chapter just on blending in with the system while remaining its worst enemy.

Make no mistake. This will not be as it appears in the movies. No Calvary will save the day. No friend will have a change of heart and save you at the last minute. Most men and women who can make those changes today to prevent this kind of future, arent doing a thing to stop it from happening. Thats right. Most are doing nothing. If they even thought for a fleeting moment that their reading about this mess would endanger them, they would burn or get rid of this and like materials so as to stay safe.

In fact, evil will be. Exactly the same chance in our lives as Love joywisdom. It is what it is, so are the people who find a home in such cold regions of the heart. What lets evil spread like the disease it is, simply is the very place it can spreadpeople. Living from the heart doesnt mean, usually jingoistically like some silly rhyme, smiling and never being angry. Living from the heart means courage, strength, and perseverance, too.

The elements of Group Two will be those men and women who will realize that the time has come to act, or be a slave. In a moment of insight, they will choose any risk for freedom. Many of these will fail at the first serious trial of their resolve. If they attempt such a breakout with success once the Junta has taken power, and then later decides to rejoin the system? They will be tortured and shot. Know that decisions like these must be firm and lasting. A dead resister of the New World Mess is of no value to anyone.

The Real heroes of the battle are those peopleacting todaywho are risking everything so that you, the reader, can know what is happening, why it is happening, and who is doing it. These folks have the most to lose. They are throwing away their careers, friends, and security so that there will at least be a small miter of hope once things get really bad.

The traitors of our time are not the politicians who sold out. They are not the doddering school marms who believe everything they see on CNN and question nothing. They are those people who know better and do naught. These are the vipers who will let humanity sink to the level of the battlefield, where abject horror, misery, and carnage await.

Any person, who willingly allows our world to come to such a place merely because of laziness or apathy, are creating for themselves a hellish nightmare in the after-life. Know this. If you know the truth of things, yet remain silent in the face of such growing evil, you are just as much to blame as the evil itself, and, in fact, you are expressing such a condition within yourself. You have sold out. Not just your self, but your country and its millions. Youve also sold your soul. (Sleep good, tonight.)

These people do nothing while others starve to death, are killed off, and it is from this pool of humanity that lies all real and lasting danger. The power brokers do not waffle. They know what they want. They are focused, determined, and have the resources to carry out their plans. Freedom lovers have no resources, little help, and must count upon the forbearance of humanity for success. From my own experiences, I can say without reservation that this same humanity will cower, line up, and allow itself to be turned into slaves. How do I know this?

Ever been to China? Pakistan? Chile? Vietnam? Cuba? The middle East? The citizens of those countries could have easily defeated their power mad governments at one time. That time was before they allowed gun control and before they willingly gave away whatever due process they at one time had as a right. They stood by and watched hundreds and thousands of their countrymen die at the hands of mass murderers, doing and saying nothing. It will be the same here. Those very same events that happened there are now happening here and nothingnothing is being done about it.

The Freedom Lover has everything against him. It will be years before the tide of revolution slowly turns against the system and defeats it. Years. In fact, it wont be until about 2012 before things start going our way. Thats a long time in the trenchesa very long time. During that period, we will have roundups, mass graves, slaughter, death, and absolute control over the masses as they had in Germany when the Socialist Party was running things.

For Group Two personnel, the following plan is a beginning place so that, for those men and women who are willing to start now, a way made be had whereby at least some Americans can live in freedom. No, they wont have all those nice and mind-numbing conveniences they are so addicted to, but they will live better, lose all their body fat (86% of all Americans are overweight), and they will feel good about themselves. It wont be easyat first. It will, however, be an adventure of a lifetime. You did say once, did you not, that you were bored and wanted some excitement?

The Plan

To synthesize a program that has definitely been found to work is now our goal. The below outline has been tested over and over again and is practically foolproof. The only reason for using such an outline and failing is because the membership of the group so employing these plans has failed itself in planning, courage, activity, and one- mindedness. The outline of the plan is as follows.

Create and establish a safety center in one of the National Parks.

Create three routes to this center for all members.

Have your supplies already in place at this center.

Make sure each member of your enclave is trained in the materiel necessary for pioneer living.

Create an education program for the young.

Establish food stores for the first two years as a minimum.

Gather appropriate clothing and supplies to sustain harsh living conditions.

Establish a leader that is trusted and tested.

Test members for courage, honesty, and faith.

Setup a system whereby new members can be tested for sincerity and saboteurs be unmasked for what they are.

The above list has harsh items, repulsive to the heart. It has been found, over and over again, that without these ten conditions having been tested and proved out, no group will survive for very long. Some members, after a few weeks in the field, will stray back to the city where they will be picked up by the police agencies and turned over to the intelligence apparatus for debriefing; that means torture unbelievable torture. The leadership must know and trust his or her people, as lives will depend upon it. Lets look at each item in detail and see how it breaks down.

Create and establish a safety center in one of the National Parks.

The best way to do this is to get a map of your area, county, and state and look over the land known as National Park or BLM (Bureau of Land Management.) Once you have this map, spend a weekend and drive over through those areas so indicated on the map that look good to you. Once youve selected what appears to be a good area, then youll need a topographical map of that area so you can navigate with a compass and hike about.

What should you be looking for? Coming up with a good list of your own ideas will help when scouting about for a safety zone entrance. Here are some other considerations.

A point of entry that has easy-access from a dirt road not a paved road. Most of the roads and highways monitored by the Feds and the Sheriffs and Heavily-Armed-Rangers (as all are now in the United States!) are the paved, maintained roads. You will need access to your area and by using a dirt road not usually traveled, you will find yourself mostly unencumbered with problems; once you have selected such a road, drive it frequent enough to make sure it hasnt become blocked by somethinglike a tank. It is a fact that once Martial Law is declared, the government plans on barricading the entrances to most Parks, National or otherwise. Your entrance must take this fact into consideration.

Your point of entry should have large foliage (trees) so as to make it easy to hide your vehicle from the spying eyes of satellites. Using a GPS tracker at this stage is okay, but you will have to get rid of it once things get underway; remember, those GPS systems have built-in transponders which makes it easy to locate whenever it is turned on. Stay away from them if you can and learn fieldcraft. Human beings have been pioneers for thousands of centuries so its in our race memory to adapt to the wild. Dont be afraid.

Your entry point should never be an open plain with miles of open ground everywhere you look. It should be as heavily forested as possible (which also means large resources of water and game, hence the forest.) This locationwhich is nothing more than a place to dump vehicles and get goingshould also have some emergency supplies waiting for you once you and your party arrives. More on that later.

Create three routes to this center for all members.

Even under the best of circumstances, things always go wrong; this can stem from lack of proper problem solving by the group or through karma. For those persons whose only efforts have been toward "paper" solutions, they will find that most of their planning is full of bugs and problems, with failure pretty much an assured fact within the first 72 hours. This is why I implore all planners to field-test their ideas and preparations. It will be too late, later, to fix a major problem; no stores, no credit cards, but plenty of angry guard personnel with M16s to treat with.

Don't realize later that you didn't buy the right kind of boots for your climate; by then, it'll just be too bad. Also remember, even if you fail yourself, you have no right to fail those who cannot fend for themselves: the elderly and children. You are responsible for them and your laziness now is no excuse when others may suffer at your hands. In addition to the above routes, each member should also consider their most likely starting place should they find things getting obviously out of hand in our country.

Route One. Direct and fastest. This should be the primary route, well known and frequently driven. This route should avoid the major roads that have video traffic surveillance cameras (most cities have thousands of these plastered everywhere, and they are digitally connected with the NSA and FBI. These cameras see everything: faces, license plate numbers, and occupants. This is how many folks fleeing their old lives are caught.) Choose routes that take longer but are as little traveled as possible. This first-choice route would be ideal when choosing to pre-empt their plans, especially if you see that the signs around you are pointing toward imminent deployment of the military by the White House.

Route Two. Fail-safe for Route One, should that choice become impassable. This many need to take into consideration that the person or family using their backup route has waited too long to act and are trying to squeak through the roadblocks going up everywhere at once. Don't count on anything, especially when the world is being intentionally turned upside down. There will be trucks with loudspeakers driving down the roads and streets of America warning the citizens to stay at home, blah, blah, blah. You bet they want you at home; makes it easier to round up the undesirables. Their worst nightmare is the people going to the streets, parks, and mountains of this great country; expect a veritable ton of misinformation regarding anthrax scares, bubonic plague, and other obvious lies to keep you at home and waiting by the door.

Route Three. The first two routes are well guarded and walking is the only option left. The good news here is that if stealth procedures are adhered to, this final solution will be the most likely one for success. It's easy to see, stop, and search for something large like a car or truck; however, a dedicated soul bent upon success and who is also patient is very difficult to detect, especially as these roadblocks and search teams will have their hands full already with those who just "tried to get away." The person(s) having to resort to their final, on-foot, route can choose any path, stay off highways and roads, and can conceal themselves at will by using the brush and material around them. Of course, it may take a week to get where you are going and there will be helicopters overhead and other problems, but this will resolve itself when you, from a distance, witness your first roadblock: lots of angry guards, people in shackles, babies crying, and men laying dead by the side of the road. Every time you see another RV pull up to one of these roadblocks you will thank yourself for having enough insight so as to avoid such a large pronouncement of your survival intentions.

Have your supplies already in place at this center.

As you and your group may be forced to go to your rally point on foot, the less equipment you carry will help ensure your journey has a chance at success. Also, if you are spotted, you won't appear a threat to the goons if you aren't all sporting weapons and ALICE packs. Figure on enough food, water, gas masks for aerial spraying of your party by Uh-1H helicopters, and a concealed pistol or two for defense to get you to your rally or entrance point, where you will meet the rest of your party and get resupplied for the next step. Don't overdo it. What you can't carry in the first three miles, you will end up throwing away. If that must be the case, then why not just have these supplies already waiting for you at one of your cache sites? Remember, your supplies should be helping you, not hindering your efforts to avoid and evade the goons of the Beast.

The key to getting to your retreat is stealth. Making sure no one sees you getting there.

Make sure each member of your enclave is trained in the materiel necessary for pioneer living.

This has been for most survivalists the very one aspect they have religiously ignored.

Can you set up a tent, build a fire, and pick a guard post?

Can you signal your friends in complete silence and over distances in excess of 1,000 yards?

Can you mend a tear in your trousers?

Fire a pistol accurately?

Use the available brush to create and ad-hoc ghillie suit?

Zero in a riflescope?

Fieldstrip an AR15?

Tell the difference between the prints of a bear, deer, or quail?

Find and distill water from the environment?

Bind, set, and splint a broken leg?

If the above list makes you more than just a little uneasy, then it is time to get together with some friends and go camping. Make the trip one of real labor in the above areas; don't just get in the motor-home and head off to some "Kmart camping" area, with all the conveniences right at your fingertips. It will give you the wrong foundation for pioneer survival living. Remember, RVs and motor-homes are nothing more than big targets. The wise soul won't want to be anywhere near one when the shooting starts.

Create an education program for the young.

A child growing up needs to continue learning, in spite of conditions. Take the time to think through their reading and educational needs and get some Encyclopedias assembled and cached in the field. The generation following ours must have a chance to use their mind; their parents are that chance. If the group in question has children, their educational needs will make themselves rapidly apparent within the first month; a young mind without knowledge and direction will end up reactionary, bigoted, and ignorant. Save the books and make sure everyone realizes that they are more important than food in many ways.

Establish food stores for the first two years as a minimum.

Until your fieldcraft has become second nature, you and yours will depend primarily upon those stores of food youve managed to put away for the hard times ahead. Of course, the hunter/gatherers in your group will of course start to bring in flora and fauna, but it will take awhile for everyone's diets to adjust to the new vittles conditions and except for those who are already highly trained in pioneer living, it will be tough times at first.

It will also be extremely difficult to go hunting or fishing when there are helicopters and patrols constantly monitoring the hinterlands. That's when the guy or gal with a .22 rifle will come in to fantastic demand for an enclave. Buy thousands of .22 rounds now and plenty of these cheap rifles that cost easily under three hundred dollars. Most of your game acquisition will be with this rifle; quiet, accurate out to 100 yards, and any child over the age of six can fire it accurately. Get one for every person, plus spare parts, clips, and, of course, tons of ammo--as much as can be bought without attracting attention.

Also, during the first few months of Martial Law, most of the hills and dales of our great country will be covered with patrols of every kind, looking for strays, resisters, and all those groups of people who got in their motor homes and cars and fled to the hills with a pistol and a suitcase. The following article reveals how important caching foodstuffs will become, especially with the military doing house to house searches for food, money, and weapons.

The Plan

By Ray Iddings

Material Caching

This paper discusses the topic of caching combat and survival related material in preparation for living during a time of extended civil lawlessness or military occupation. Material caching is one component of a sound preparation program. Substantially completing your caching program before the beginning of hostilities is a key factor contributing to your success.

A well-planned material cache under the control of trained personnel also enhances your offensive strength permitting you to assert yourself upon other poorly protected assets, thus increasing and replenishing your supplies.

We discuss the methods of caching and the type of materials to cache. Primarily we concern ourselves with two methods of caching: distributed caching and central stockpiling. Both methods have distinct advantages and disadvantages. Our proposal uses both methods.

Distributed Caching

Distributed Caching spreads material over a specified geography and stores equipment in small containers ranging in size from an ammunition can to a 55-gallon steel drum. Each location contains supplies that are appropriate for their use plan. Such supplies might include ammunition, food, and clothing.

There are two distinct advantages to distributed caching: First, it is very unlikely that the enemy or looters will ever compromise the entire cache. Secondly, the loss of a few caches should not affect your overall survivability.

Because of cache size, it becomes impractical to store large items or large quantities for long periods. Additionally, because we distribute the caches, periodic site maintenance is difficult.

Central Stockpiling

Centralize caching stockpiles large quantities of supplies and equipment into at either a single storage unit. We may also distribute the central stockpiling method into several large storage units. However, this plan discusses using only one; other units may be added later.

The advantage of a large central facility is that we can store both large quantities and equipment together. It becomes cost effective to build a more secure unit that offers an environment conducive to long- term storage. Because it is a larger facility, it can also act as a distribution center and repair depot. The major disadvantage is that compromise would be devastating.

A Caching Program

As mentioned earlier, material caching is only one part of a good preparation program. Planning is an essential part of your successful caching program. Your plan should include the following topics: Definition of the purpose of your cache: in our case we have defined this plan as preparation for living during a time of extended civil lawlessness or military occupation. Initial travel plans, including alternate routes.

Purpose of Caching

To clearly understand the kind of supply you will cache, it is first important to define the purpose of your cache. People store supplies for various reasons, such as earthquakes, storms, civil unrest, or military occupation. Certain items, such as food and water are common to all preparation; other supplies, such as munitions will vary in type and quantity.

Defining the purpose of your cache also helps you effectively design the placement of your supplies. For example, while preparing for an earthquake or storm, you would not hide ammunition in a rural area; however, you would store food and water in a safe location in or near your home. Additionally, if part of your preparation calls for walking out or a metropolitan area during martial law, you would not want to carry a thousand rounds of .223 ammunition in your backpack along with your other supplies.

While planning for departure, certain supplies belong in your home or near possession, other supplies need to be placed at periodic replenishment points. Your initial travel plan determines the kind of supplies and the placement of these supplies.

Initial Travel Plan

This plan assumes that you live in a metropolitan area where the situation may degrade rapidly. Therefore your survival and comfort are substantially enhanced by leaving the area and traveling to either a rural community or an isolated hideaway.

Despite your destination, route planning and familiarization with the route and destination are essential. If your destination is a rural community, their familiarization with you may also be necessary, particularly since most rural communities are somewhat closed to outsiders.

While we are accustomed to traveling by vehicle, our plan must also include contingencies where vehicle travel is not possible or practical. For example civil disorder might make vehicle departure dangerous; highways clogged by other less prepared motorist could make such departure impossible. Being trapped on a clogged highway during a period of severe civil lawlessness would probably expose you to unnecessary gang violence as they begin looting defenseless motorists.

During military occupation or martial law negotiating roadways would be impossible because of curfews and checkpoints. Of course we hope to complete our departure in the comfort of our vehicle long before it becomes dangerous to do so. But, because something can always go wrong, it becomes wise to plan for the unforeseen. Therefore, plan for both vehicle and foot departure. Your departure and travel plans determine the placement and content of your distributed cache.

A Plan

We designed this plan to study issues related to determining cache placement and content. Using it as a study, rather than a guide should help you develop your own successful material-caching program. Our program discusses preparation for departure by either vehicle or foot with our final destination about one hundred miles away. Hopefully, we can drive because this trip would only take about two to three hours to complete with less than a tank of gas. Hiking this distance could take one to two weeks depending on our physical condition, the terrain, and the presents of hostile forces.

Since the final destination for both trips is the same, it makes sense that our routes should parallel each other. However, if we are hiking this route, it is probably because driving has become impossible or unsafe. If they restrict our driving because of martial law, then hiking the highway is probably unsafe as well. Therefore our hiking route, although parallel to our driving route should be a safe distance from the highway to avoid detection by patrols and to avoid being part of the unprepared crowd that is also fleeing.

Since driving to your destination is relatively simple and needs little discussion, we will focus our attention on caching for the hike. Keep in mind though, that your vehicle trip could become dangerous anytime, thus, requiring you to abandon you vehicle and resort to your hiking route.

Distributed Cache

Except for your first, and possibly second cache sites, other sites should be placed at ten-mile (linear) intervals. While this may seem like too many sites, it accomplishes several things for you, including:

allowing each site to be very small

allowing you to skip a site

reduces jeopardy due to site compromise

allows you to reduce your carrying weight

The first or second sites may be your most important; these sites should contain extensive resources so that you can afford to arrive here with little preparation, thus giving you the ability to begin your journey on a moment s notice. One of these sites should be near a staging area where you intend to meet companions. As a staging area, this site should contain resources for a two-day wait.

The other cache site need only contain minimal supplies, such as food, water, perhaps some first aide, clothing, and other things.

Centralized Cache

The centralized, or final destination cache is your primary cache resource containing most of the material you or your group will need. To be successful, we must create this cache long before the beginning of a crisis. Since we develop this site during safe times, we should make serious effort to complete and maintain an extensive stockpile in an improved underground storage facility.

Our Plan

Our plan uses both methods. We use distributed caching at both the individual and unit level. Each person should provide individual caching of important supplies that ease their departure and help them reach their units staging area. Personal caching would also include certain items kept at their home or car as well as hidden supplies. Their home supplies are designed to get them out of the city and to at least their first hidden cache. Their cache contains other supplies and tools that will facilitate their linking up with other unit members and traversing to the unit staging area. Additional personal cache sites are placed every ten miles (linear).

The unit staging area cache site facilitates the grouping of companions and other troops. Our plan currently incorporates just one unit staging area facility; this is our central stockpile. As membership grows we may construct other facilities.

Unit Staging Area (planned)

Our unit staging area facility contains food and munitions, plus support machinery and equipment. It is located in remote rugged terrain on several acres of private land. The storage facility is a large self-contained unit buried into a hillside. Note that linear placement is plotted on a map, actual walking distance may be much greater.

Gather appropriate clothing and supplies to sustain harsh living conditions.

This has three sections to it. For those families and groups that are pretty certain their only chance for survival is hitting the road and dropping off the systems radar screen, the following outline must be followed at all costs. Failure of any of these three levels of preparedness will result in failure.

Have a set of clothes and supplies ready in your car or home/office that can be quickly donned and assembled for departure; practice getting into your rig and heading out the door. Time yourself. Do it at least three times: early in the morning, around dinner time, and extremely late at night. Your supplies should be just enough to get you and your family to your rally point safely. A good medium-framed field pack, loaded with food and water for a few days in case things go wrong, and something to help your group get through those hairy moments when a force of some measure is trying to prevent your successful extrication from your normal living environment. The term, "save the children" is finally going to have real meaning in the coming years.

At the first rally or entrance point to your retreat, have laid on a good supply of clothing, food, ammunition, weapons, field gear, and misc. supplies. This is considered point One and as such, the freedom lover has to assume that members of his group is coming from different directions, under different circumstances, and may arrive with barely their clothes on their backs and starving. There should be enough supplies to last each person at least two weeks. The hike toward your final retreat must not be in a direct line and must switch back from time to time so that the members are assured they aren't being tracked. Once the initial danger of getting out of the city has passed, new dangers will appear in the form of free-booters (armed gangsters who will rob and kill for food) and the military sweeps, which will be most intensive during the first 30 days of Martial Law. Do not think for a moment, that because you can no long see the patrols that they are no longer out there. The military is very adept at using satellites, dogs, and motion sensors to stay on top of exactly what is going on where in the countryside. Learn to move at night; grow proficient in fieldcraft; become invisible.

The Retreat. Using the star system of caching, you have created a "home-base supply cache" where the central supplies of your enclave are being held. In a fanned out star, you have your secondary and auxiliary supplies, in case any one of your caches is compromised by loose lips or by discovery of the military. This is sanctuary. Well selected for its

pleasant surroundings,

difficult access from the perimeter,

defensibility,

living quarters,

excellent escape routes, and

great concealment, etc.

The Retreat, as such, should be that place where your group can gather itself, work out its next set of plans, and re-equip as necessary. Never, never, put all your supplies and materiel at one location. Most retreats will be compromised within the first few weeks, so make a plan, once everyone is safely in and rested from their ordeal, to start moving to another site and fast. Most likely someone in your group was caught on camera or satellite and this data will ultimately be used by the patrols to check out various sectors.

The other side to this is that it may be that your group was superb in carrying out its escape from the city. But, lo and behold, there is another assemblage of souls not 500 meters from your present position; they are loud, firing weapons into the air, and drunk. Time to leave. Have a plan, up and ready to go at a moment's notice.

Establish a leader that is trusted and tested.

There must be leadership. Someone who is levelheaded, not prone to "flights of fancy," or weird personality disorders. The leader must have the final say and be trusted to look past personality favoritism and toward providing for the best interests of the whole. The only chance for success is that the group lives and functions as a machine, with a head, arms, legs, torso, and feet. This isn't a popularity contest; leadership has to be demonstrated. Leaders think things through, are proactive, and see spatial relationships and effects of actions and are complete doers in every sense of the word. Your leader, man or woman, must have their sexual appetites well under control and should be beyond such inner states of failure. Nothing will destroy a group trying to survive faster than infidelity among the members.

Inversely, a good leader knows to test his people. All streets run both ways, but be certain such tests don't become simple-minded games of those with dictator complexes. For many, whatever their situation is, is not something they can control. Their group's membership is just how things fell out. Still, even among a small group of four people, the leader should shine above the others in will, courage, patience, and quick-thinking. If you can at least appoint someone with these basic qualities, the rest will just have to sort itself out later; which it will do, given the circumstances of the situation in survival.

Test members for courage, honesty, and faith.

The only way to do this is to first be a radiant example of courage, honesty, and faith. You cannot test another for something you do not possess within yourself. Life will present opportunities for such things. Here are but a very few ideas, though remember that the ideal test is a very individual thing, being different for each person. Listen to your heart and use your common sense.

Setup a system whereby new members can be tested for sincerity and saboteurs unmasked for what they are.

Cosidering the world that must result in our country when thousands of American citizens must take to the hills to avoid extermination and the separation of their families at gunpoint, the wise planners of your group must take into the fact that your enclave is going to run into stragglers, the homeless, and others who are starving and trying to do exactly what you are doing. Do you help? YES. If life has brought some poor woman and her child to your door, you had better open it and let them in. This for several reasons.

Decency. Charity is the hallmark of a loving heart. If you are not kind to the less fortunate, why should life be kind to you when you are in need?

Strength in numbers. The only hope of the freedom lover turned freedom fighter is increasing one's numbers. Be glad that there are good folk being brought your way; it shows that Divinity sees you as someone who can help.

Each new person brings gifts, skills, and their own hard work to the enclave's enterprises. Who knows, the next person you meet may know how to use all that flour you stored? Wouldn't it be nice to have some baked bread for dinner that night? Raise your hands: how many out there knows how to make pan bread?

What if that was you, though lost on the way to your first rally point? You dropped the compass and have no idea where you are? Won't you be grateful for some help? Imagine how you would feel if you had to bury your daughter that morning from an injury easily fixed by someone with lifesaving skills? Visualize a whole bunch of people sitting in selfish silence while you wailed for your dying offspring? What if you had a broken leg and could not move very well; what if fifty people were watching you suffer but chose to remain silent through all this? What if you were one of that fifty?

Once the military realizes there are groups and enclaves functioning in their sector that they can't seem to rid themselves of, they will react to remove the threat, real or otherwise. Count on

Aerial Spraying by C130s, UH-1H helicopters, and cobra gunships.

Listening devices and motion sensors dropped from planes.

Armed patrols using the latest technology of night vision, weaponry, and other horrors of war.

Saboteurs.

It may come to pass that the young man or woman seeking help is a plant, sent out to discover the exact whereabouts of your group. Such persons will have locational transponders swallowed and in their bowels. Any equipment on them will also have transponders up and going. Look for someone in vibrant health and asking too many questions. In addition to that, a system will have to be developed whereby newcomers can be tested. This will require some thought on the part of the leadership of the group. Your survival group should ALWAYS have a guard posted who is watching the approaches. If someone comes near, look for someone, looking for something. This is a dead- on sign that they are looking for your group. Some people are naturally inquisitive, but someone seeking shelter and aid will show it. They will be haggard, hungry, and grateful. They will know, on an inner level, not to ask questions.

If you have allowed a plant into your main enclave without testing them thoroughly, that may be the last thing your group does. Make sure new arrivals don't have access to the cache supplies nor a weapon, unless they come with their own. If they bring a weapon, insist that for the duration of their stay with your camp, it remain in the hands of others and unloaded. Ask questions; listen to their answers. Watch their eyes closely. Listen to your heart at all times. After a month in the field under these types of conditions, your survival sensibilities will sharpen to a fine point. Traitors will have an odor about them that is sickly; watch for it.

Never camp at your main cache supplies point. Always use your caches for getting supplies and then moving on, only coming back when you need to. Camps miles away from your caches. ALL camps and campfires will ultimately be discovered. It's inevitable. Your group should be nomadic to some degree and should move frequently to avoid capture. Any group that stays in one spot for more than a week will eventually become discovered. The reason for that is after a week, you'll have setup routines and will become less watchful of your surroundings. It's natural for people to establish routines and that is the danger for a survival group. Keep moving.

A sheep in wolfs clothing

For some reason that still surprises you, the blue list sweeps have been ongoing for several weeks and no one has dropped by your home to pick you up. When the White House issued an order for all Americans to register at the Post Office and turn in their weapons, you complied (except for that Berretta 9MM you bought for cash last year and the six boxes of ammo you stored under your house, right?) You also are doing your part, filling out the papers and getting your vaccination. Time is going by and you are adjusting to conditions, but you don't like what you see.

The TV has radical new programming that is very jingoistic and obviously full of BS.

There are troops everywhere. In the skies, on the corners, at the grocery store.

Everywhere you look, CCTV cameras are going up on light poles, stop signs, school entrances, everywhere!

You and everyone else are constantly stopped several times a day and checked out.

You are issued new biometric ID cards. You must use them for literally everything.

There is a ringing in your ears that comes and goes.

The food quality is horrible and mostly processed; the selection at the store is 3% of what it was before the militant lockdown of the country. Nothing is fresh. Coffee is almost impossible to get, if you are an average citizen.

Cigarettes and other luxury items are no longer available. Beer is plentiful and a lot stronger than it used to be. Most alcohol is grain and all but impossible to down without it being painful. The Brand names disappear, though you see that officers and the wealthy still get it at restaurants you are banned from dining.

There appears to be two classes of Americans since the declaration of Martial Law. Those who can go where they want, when they want, and do whatever they want. Smoke, drink, and carry sidearms. Soldiers salute these citizens and they have special stickers on their cars that you don't have. You, however, get your new landrover seized and are forced to take the bus or train to work.

There are heavily armed guards in full swat gear everywhere. If you look at them too long, they search you. If you are searched more than three times for "suspicious behavior" they come for you one night.

Your 12-year-old son has been ordered for camp, a kind of private school, for young blond boys and girls. Parents are advised not to try to contact the child, except through the post. You comply like the good little robot you are, happy to have your daughter picked.

Memories are becoming blurred. Last night, you sat down at the piano and realized you couldn't remember how to play it.

The previous night you heard gunfire and explosions a block away. Of course you never opened your door. The next day, walking to the bus stop (most cars will be outlawed, except with special passes) you notice the house is half-burned and blood trails leading to the curb, where the bodies were obviously dumped in the back of a truck and taken away. You don't look at the house, you keep your eyes forward, because you know they have planted a CCTV camera on the stoop to observe passerby's and their reactions.

Your wife's employment has been terminated; the government needs her in Phoenix. She leaves the next morning and you don't hear from her for two months.

The neighbor three houses down is now wearing a uniform; he is the block monitor and reports daily to a guard unit. If he knocks at your door, you are to let him in. (Make sure you smile and act genuinely glad to see him or her; and why not? Be glad, loving, and joyful anytime you meet another soul--what a grand opportunity!)

The above will become a common experience for those left to work within the new Martial Law system. But you don't like it and wish you had taken those steps to keep your family together and somehow stay alive. Right then and there, you become a rebel. A rebel within the system. You start turning things around. You start doing the little things to mess up Big Brother and in any way you can. You make it your mission to be a silent resister and do whatever you can to help the resistance fighters operating in the hills.

You are a wolf in sheep's clothing, but with the heart of a Saint. Yes, you cannot change the past, but you can start fresh. You never did anything your whole life that wasn't just the perfect little head- nodding citizen. You've had enough. This madness and the military must stop and you swear to your soul that if given another chance, you are going to become the system's worst enemy.

Friend, there will be millions just like you. Freedom lovers need you. We need your good wishes, prayers, and help anytime you can give it to us. And, for the future and from the past, we in advanceTHANK YOU VERY MUCH. It's appreciated.

Well obviously it did not work, since it is well after the middle of 1999 and we still have our guns. Even the owners of heavy weapons have not been rounded up.

GERMS CAN NOT BE USED AS WEAPONS "UNTIL" YOU HAVE IMMUNIZED YOUR OWN TROOPS. If cops, national guardsmen, power plant techs and all the 101 types of skilled people that make our country work had been immunized, I am sure we would have heard about it by now.

Our military is a joke, scattered all over the planet on "peace keeping missions". There are not enough Marines at Camp Pendalton to operate all the equipment stored at Yermo. If you told the average GI he was about to go to war in America, you "might" get some wild 20 year old to go along,but I doubt many 30 year old Sargents with wives and kids would take part. Where are they going to get supplies from? The mech. trooper carries 120 bullets on him with maybe twice that amount carried in his Armored Personnel Carrier. When it is gone, its gone. How about fuel? He can't very well pull his Light Armored Vehicle into the nearest gas station if the power is out, the pumps don't work and the place did not have diesel anyway.

Paranoia is only good for distracting us from the real problems.

Uh... guys.

Somebody is playing some games on this thread.

Just a Sysop "observation."

Diane, can you expand on that?

Daine mentioned in another thread that the origional poster later (as I see it: in a nervous rush to get info off the dying site & concern for what might have happened to Don) posted via different names/ids. I do not think this is a problem nor do I think this devalues the intent of the origional post.

I too think we need to get to the bottom of this. What happened to Don, his site etc.. forget the idea of who posts what right now!

Right now we need info, any info. One man stated he spoke w/ Don's attorney & that more info would be coming today as (if this murder is confirmed) this did just happen & it takes a while even to get death certificates (& they don't like to issue those w/ out cause of death, so I assume an autopsy is in order). If this is true.. then may I apologize to the Bradley families for our perhaps casual mention of this grave matter. I wish you may find some answers for your loss & a constant presence of his love in your hearts.

Did anyone ever copy his site or mirror it. I have only 3 pages on my drive now & 1 is an incomplete biodiversity map. I think the best thing that can be done is to protect his data & to set it up in various sites. I would love to see if anyone can SRV the matter. hmmm

See my new thread at the top.

Looks like it's complete BS.
