Are You Obsolete?

Or is the State Obsolete? 

Charismatic Confusion

While I am not familiar with this particular preacher, the techniques she uses are familar to me and common among charismatics. The video lets her speak for herself, with some subtitles to make it clear what she is doing. Manipulation is fairly easy to do if you know what you are doing. Note that I do not agree with the poster of this video, I doubt that any satanic sign is offered, but the video is a good start for me to start a blogging series about charismatic confusion.

Why Does Evil Triumph?

The reason that evil triumphs is that "we" allow it to. This clip illustrates this point about war. The war that the clip is critiquing was the "good" war–WW II. I have not seen The Americanization of Emily, I will. 

Power and Terror

While this not a particularly well done documentary, it is an interesting watch because of the subject matter. While Chomsky would disagree with my characterization, what Chomsky is talking about is Babylon. Come out of her while you can.
