A war has raged for millennia as most have been unaware. Hidden has this war been, yet it drives the chaos that often spills into the world. This war hasn’t always been unknown. What we now know as myth was once history. Those times have returned.
The Awakening has begun and it is far from over.

When you realize the leaders of the world spent decades planning for the genocide of humanity – and still have such plans in place – if you had any iota of trust in government left, it will certainly leave the rational mind.
This is what makes Annie Jacobsen’s new book, Nuclear War, so disturbing. In it she details a scenario, based on declassified documents and interviews with government officials, in which a nuclear war unfolds. For decades, government leaders around the world knowingly and willingly made plans for the genocide of the human race. As Jacobsen has stated, “No matter how a nuclear war starts, it ends with everyone dead.”
Ronald Reagan had said, “A nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought.” This is why he initiated the missile defense program, a technologically difficult program to shoot down nuclear ballistic missiles. It would be well into to the 21st Century before a limited, and problematic, system was deployed. Many of the same politicians casual in their planning for Armageddon, don’t seem to care about protecting their people from attack. Had missile defense had been taken seriously, had trillions not been spent on endless wars, could we have a robust missile defense system? Would Reagan’s dream of rendering nuclear ballistic missiles obsolete be a reality?
Throughout the Cold War, as described in 15 Minutes, close calls were abundant. Nuclear weapons were used carelessly and fielded in every way the military could imagine. Any weapon system could be made nuclear was made nuclear. Military planners advocated for preemptive nuclear war against enemies, as if nuclear attacks are self-contained and don’t impact the entire world. Now, in our own time, politicians once again toss around using nuclear weapons as if it comes with zero consequence. A world where war has been turned into another social program, the potential of nuclear conflict is quickly reaching Cold War levels.
As Jacobsen wrote, “Nuclear war is insane…The whole premise of using nuclear weapons is madness. It is irrational. And yet here we are.”
Perhaps people should put down their phones, shut off their televisions, and take control of their governments, and pay attention for once.
Once the missiles are launched, there will be no second chances.
With current technology, there is only one non-fossil fuel energy source that is reliable, high-output, and can power the entire world.
Nuclear.
Unfairly vilified for decades, and misunderstood by the public, the once-promised nuclear age didn’t fully materialize. Now, many countries are revisiting nuclear as green energy sources have failed to live up to the hype.
“But nuclear is unsafe!”
Is it?
As Robert Zubrin details in his book, The Case For Nukes, fears have been unfounded. In the greatest of ironies, as governments treat nuclear weapons like toys and plan for worldwide genocide, nuclear powered warships sail around the world without incident. They steam by American cities, and into our ports. The submarines and aircraft carriers stationed at Norfolk and other bases aren’t encased in concrete bunkers. Their reactors are of the same type used in power plants. The Navy handles and stores nuclear fuel with frequent regularity.
It’s not that we cannot use nuclear safely; we do it every day.
Nor is nuclear physics a new, esoteric science. Commercial reactors have produced long past their design life. Next-generation reactors now in the works have far more promise. Where would we be had we not slowed nuclear power plant construction to near zero?
Someday, we will mine Helium-3 on the Moon for fusion reactors. In the meantime, we should go back to the future and revisit an old tech, shine it up, and power the entire world.
Since the aftermath of WWII, the U.S. has engaged in dangerous, and often unethical or illegal, biological research and experimentation.
It traces its lineage to the horrific human experimentation undertaken by Imperial Japan and the Third Reich. This research was obtained by the U.S., along with many of the war criminals who produced it. They were protected from prosecution.
Since then, a number of now common diseases emerged from these labs you funded. There have been many close calls the public are not aware of, nor aware they were sometimes the test subjects.
When certain types of research were declared illegal in the U.S., labs were built or funded in other countries. This is still active government policy to get around pesky laws.
While they keep people distracted with partisan politics, this is the sort of irresponsible and dangerous behavior they happily engage in.
How much longer will the people allow this to continue?
“Humanity has all but forgotten about the humanities on the way to Armageddon.” – Anthony T. Hincks
The modern world pays little attention to the skies. We are told our ancestors and their obsession with the heavens was just superstition and fear.
Perhaps we should share their fear. At any given moment, one storm on the Sun could end civilization. William Forstchen explores what would happen, in his novel, 48 Hours.
The average person now spends 93 percent of their life indoors…This is a catastrophe, the final nail in the coffin for the human soul. You live nearly all your life in a fake world: artificial lighting instead of the warmth of sunlight or the cool of moonlight or the darkness of night itself. Artificial climate rather than the wild beauty of real weather…All the surfaces you touch are things like plastic, nylon, and faux leather instead of meadow, wood, and stream. Fake fireplaces; wax fruit. The atmosphere you inhabit is now asphyxiating with artificial smells — mostly chemicals…instead of cut grass, wood smoke, and salt air…In place of the cry of the hawk, the thunder of a waterfall, and the comfort of crickets, your world spews out artificial sounds…Dear God, even the plants in your little bubble are fake. They give no oxygen; instead the plastic off-gases toxins…This is a life for people in a science fiction novel…Living in an artificial world is like spending your life wrapped in plastic wrap. – John Eldredge writing in Get Your Life Back.
We are easily distracted by the Next New Thing. That new, shiny gadget, device, or car – we must have it. Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), or is it Fear of Not Fitting In? Marketing exists to convince you that you need everything new or updated. Companies create “ecosystems” that you can’t live without, or is it they can’t live without you handing over your money? Sometimes “new things” come not in the form of products, but as social change. Policy makers and activists implore you to change your lifestyle to preserve the future of humankind.
We’ve been conditioned to not ask simple questions: Do I really need this? What does it really serve? Is its purpose really as advertised, or even the intent of the designer? What is the impact of this product or service on me and others? Sounds rather heavy to be asking such things, but to not do so is not without risk.
We repeatedly fail to ask the Right Questions because we are taught to act on emotion. Companies don’t want us to think before acting. There’s nothing wrong with making money, but let’s not pretend your well-being is always at the forefront of every new product. Nor are all companies concerned to look beyond dollar signs to the impact their plans or devices have on humanity. Here are some examples.
We are told electric vehicles (EVs) will save our world. They are more efficient over their lifetime in energy consumption and produce zero emissions. Neither of these claims are true. The other elephant in the room are the troublesome human and environmental costs of making batteries, including slave labor (see Cobalt Red). Someday EVs may make sense, but the current, best engineerable solution is hybrids.
Policy makers tell us we must move to renewable energy sources. Sounds like a commendable goal, right? It is, but unfortunately, sources like wind and solar are unreliable, intermittent, and low output. Solving these limitations isn’t simply a matter of scaling up: There are the limitations of physics, and environmental concerns with what are idealized as “green” energy sources.
To free up money and attract investors to these renewables, we are told fossil fuels are dirty. Truth is, as fossil fuel usage as increased, pollution has decreased. How? Through technology (see Fossil Future). High output energy sources have raised millions of people out of poverty. Excessively relying on solar or wind could reverse that progress. This is why more nations are revisiting nuclear. Unfairly vilified, nuclear is the only emission-free energy source capable of powering all of our world. It is a proven technology, and fears of it unfounded (see The Case For Nukes).
I recently read a post on the wonders of 3-d printed “meat.” It claimed this fabricated food can save the world, by feeding millions and protecting the environment. Problem is, processed foods are a primary reason for the worst health in human history. The industrial farming that produces these foods is the most environmental destructive process ever created. Why would we just double down and continue down that path? Just because it’s cool, new tech? Turns out, returning to farming the way nature taught us (see Dirt to Soil) fixes our problems. Nor is real meat dangerous to us or the planet (see Sacred Cow).
Ask the Right Questions. Does this wonder product or policy change provide a useful service? Does it solve a real problem or does it perpetuate existing issues, or create new ones?
We’ve been conditioned not to think, but thinking is not hard, nor time-consuming. Sometimes those who mislead do so intentionally, others are themselves misled. Sliding you into an ecosystem, a social cause, or a political cult, is a surefire way to replace reason with emotion in your decision making. And they know it. You ultimately must be responsible for your own health and wealth. Far too many others will never do it for you. They rather not and look only to their own.
Don’t be distracted by shiny new things. Sometimes the old way is better, other times the new. Be careful of jumping on any bandwagon that comes your way.
It may be driving off a cliff.
Tell your story. Tell that of others. We all have a story to tell, yet so many keep it to themselves.
Consider a tombstone — a monument to one’s life…the inscription typically focuses on the years when a person was born and subsequently passed away, a person’s life is actually represented by the ‘dash’ in between (i.e., 1964-2042).
This dash represents the essence of our lives — the succession of joys, sorrows, successes, failures…If you could write the story of your dash, how would it read? Would it be full of regrets for the things you did or didn’t do? Or would it be a tribute to all that you attempted to do, be, and accomplish while you were alive? – Anthony Paustian, writing in A Quarter Million Steps.
Find Your Purpose. Find Your Story.
Join the War. Watchers of the Light Book 2, Awakening, out now!
I have often wrote about our connections to history, what we can learn from our ancestors, and the ripples into the future our actions create. I wonder if people knew their impact on history, and shed their hubris about the past, what would our world be like? What if we reclaimed our responsibility to mentor the next generations and ensure they remember the legacy of our forebearers?
The cycles of history Neil Howe discusses in his book, The Fourth Turning is Here, in large part occur because of our selfishness and shortsightedness. And so, we come to a critical moment in time where must decide to wrestle control from those who control society with no regard to those within it. Or we can keep our eyes shut as crisis after crisis turns into such a disaster than civilization is sent into reverse. Some of those collapses have been obvious and catastrophic, some lesser so, but all send their changes and casualties deep into the future.
“Generations connect us to history because they remind us that ours is not the first or only peer group to encounter this season of history at this phase of life. We know that others have done so before us. Perhaps we can learn from them. We also know that others will do so after us. Perhaps we can help them prepare.
“Generations also connect is to our families because they remind us that we all have forebearers who encountered this season of history at some phase of their lives. We may wonder how their location in history affect what happened to them as children, what happened to the children they raised, or what happened to alter the direction of their lives at a critical moment.
“…we will finally recognize what Ibn Khaldun observed at the very dawn of modernity: ‘The past resembles the future more than one drop of water resembles another.'” – Neil Howe
So as 2024 begins, will you awaken or will you continue to sleep? The past is like a mirror on the future: We face disaster or prosperity. Every generation has a choice, and that choice includes breaking free of the powers who believe it’s up to them to decide your fate, your Story.
They always bring failure because they ignore the past. We don’t have to wait for more failures, more disasters. We can choose a different path.
“Fiat foods create fiat minds that enslave the human body to a revolving state of addiction, lethargy, and depression. Would the Wright Brothers have had the vision, skill, and initiative to expand their bicycle business to venture boldly and defy all established authority under the belief man could fly while on a steady diet of SnackWell cookies and Cheese Puffs?” – Matthew Lysiak
Think the nutritional advice you’ve been taught for decades is based on science? Well, take a good dose of corporate influence, government financial manipulation, fake or unscientific studies, and throw in some eugenics and a cult for good measure, and what do you get?
The worst health of humans in modern history.
Make Fiat Food number one on your to-read list for 2024. Matthew Lysiak takes you on a tour of the disturbing history of where our health “standards” came from, and why we have more chronic medical problems than ever in our history.
This new year can be the one where you take responsibility for your own health. Stop letting others make money off you by keeping you sick and miserable.
