pretty good interview, I just got done watching it. By the way the “official review” is quite amateurish.
Synopsis of making of “Silence”
The sage Dr. Postma is correct about the loss of teaching of moral values can lead to the decay of society.
I would suggest, however, that at least nine of the Ten Commandments could be agreed upon based on a logical examination of reasonable civilized moral behavior without the necessity of a Christian or Judaic origin, but rather a belief in the Golden Rule.
Of course Professor. There is absolutely no question about that.
Soros is evil.
There is a difference between “Freedom of Speech” and “Incitement to illegal activity”.
Soros is a destroyer of governments and societies, and an abuser of the “will” of the people.
Soros would make any Bond villain blush. He’s beyond evil.
Sedition remains a crime in the United States under 18 U.S.C.A. § 2384 (2000), a federal statute that punishes seditious conspiracy, and 18 U.S.C.A. § 2385 (2000), which outlaws advocating the overthrow of the federal government by force. Generally, a person may be punished for sedition only when he or she makes statements that create a Clear and Present Danger to rights that the government may lawfully protect (schenck v. united states, 249 U.S. 47, 39 S. Ct. 247, 63 L. Ed. 470 [1919]).
The crime of seditious conspiracy is committed when two or more persons in any state or U.S. territory conspire to levy war against the U.S. government. A person commits the crime of advocating the violent overthrow of the federal government when she willfully advocates or teaches the overthrow of the government by force, publishes material that advocates the overthrow of the government by force, or organizes persons to overthrow the government by force. A person found guilty of seditious conspiracy or advocating the overthrow of the government may be fined and sentenced to up to 20 years in prison.
Thank you CFS. I would suggest that this law might be invoked this coming Friday. If violence occurs which results in anything other than a minor pain in the ass that I would be in complete favor of invoking it.
https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2384
If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.
Depending on what happens on Friday they may be room to charge Mr. Soros under this part of the U.S.Code. Maybe, maybe not. He clearly has good lawyers and a lot of bought influence.
I have to agree with both you CFS and you Andrew. God bless you both.
Hi Connor, I believe it is important when you are raising children for the family to spend time each day together, it was usually dinnertime for us to talk about what transpired in our day. That was when we discussed political and economic issues, but more important then those issues were the emphasis we placed on teaching our children that no matter what you hear or read the most important point to remember is to think for yourself, including whatever beliefs your parents have. We live in the age of information. DT
Thanks Mr. Tracy, I forwarded you comment to him. You must have a really great family, my friend.
As I listened to the McAdams interview regarding Soros’s playbook, I was reminded of the book by Norman Spinard titled “Agent of Chaos”. Some very disturbing parallels.
Thank you JohnM
I agree with you and Doc about the collapse of society due to less than moral behaviors. If we look at the cyclical nature of the rise and fall of nations or societies, the same pattern emerges over and over again. It has been said that history repeats itself, but I believe that it is more accurate to say that human nature repeats itself. The eternal moral truths, when followed, have always led to better societies and happier lives. Overall, I would much rather live in a moral society than not and it boggles my mind that so many people in our society do not see the negative cause and effect of immorality in our lives. We, as people, keep trying the same old failed patterns, thinking that somehow we are smarter than those in the past and can avoid the pitfalls of the past, but trying the same failed patterns again and again, thinking one will get a different result is insanity. Just a thought.
When I was much younger I would say “humans are programmed idiots”. That will change in the future with artificial intelligence, by then we will become humanoids, a machine that looks like a human. DT
I can certainly see that happening at some point, Dick
I personally believe that there is actually a lot of insanity in the immoral behavior of much of our society.
Thank you Pardu.
Mr. Boyac’ comments on using different ‘languages’ seems to be a valuable breakthrough in tactics for people to concentrate on similarities instead of differences. Thanks.
I happen to agree with you Silverdollar.
Excellent article from Chris Martenson. Fits on a political page IMO.

Thanks, good read.
There is a historic Christian revival coming to America. Todd White may be the pointman of this coming revival.
I would like to suggest that you take a look at a book called: “The Universe has Your Back.”
The author used “the universe” in place of the word “God” I personally strongly believe that they mean the same thing.
I pray for a Judeo Christian resurgence, but remember that we all have free will and you have to wonder how many people are willing to submit to God.
Thanks Al. Sounds very interesting!! I will look into that book.
What is so impressive ( at least to me ) about the street evangelist Todd White is that he demonstrates God’s love for people in very tangible ways ( like miraculous healing, words of knowledge, etc. ) People’s flesh do not want to submit to God ( I am being very honest here! ). But once they see God’s love for them, they change. They are spiritually awakened and fall in love with God. I believe this is a sketch of this coming Christian revival in America which I believe would change America – just like first and second great awakening. Perhaps even more so.
I sincerely pray that you beliefs come to fruition Jay.
Thanks Al for this great forum. I am not mean to toot my horn. But early last year on this site, when everyone was aghast and laughing at Trump candidacy, I wrote ‘Trump is the man who would be king.’ So I do feel like I have some odd insight into what is going on out there…. So I am going out on a limb and now forecasting a spiritual change in America via this third great awakening. And I am excited about what Todd White is doing.
All nice BLA BLA ! And suddenly something happens ! And we go to WAR ! BLA BLA no MORE ! Its busy !
I would have to guess that action will cease. On the wires this morning about the Russian setting up defensive missals just outside of Moscow. s
My hope that is very shortly after the 20th all of these actions will change.
Well of course, if war is the result. James, I simply hope and pray that it is not the next “big event”
AL ! You know the plan ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGCkSRXo-jk
The USA Army Looking fore JESUS ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzlKs0Rsgj8
Not sure what this had to do with God
The biggest danger always lies in not knowing what you don’t know.
That is why you should listen to all views and opinions.
That is not saying believe that all are correct; for many will be based on incorrect premises or suffer from false logic.
The true wisdom comes in knowing which is correct and which is false.
Now I know for sure why you managed to get a PhD!
Is Podbay a safe and secure site, Professor?
I have not encountered any problems with podsbay or soundcloud.
I should add with regards to podbay and soundcloud, that on my windows system I have heavy suppression of pop-ups, and two security programs running at all times.
On my Ipad, there does not seem any problem in any way.
Thanks CFS I will check it out after the Seahawks game.
I instaled it and when I hit the link I get the homepage. WHERE do I go from there?
Or by perverted ideologies and lies:

Why Is Obama Moving Troops Into Poland And Provoking A War With Russia Right Before The Inauguration?
Troops into Poland ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjddX5X1Wbo

Common Owl……..you are to easy on the guy……Thank goodness only 6 days to go and this guy, can go bye bye. 🙂
+1 OOTB — He’s a war criminal, plain and simple. Presided over war in 7 countries. War every single day of his 8 years in office. And drone assassin to boot.
It makes absolutely no sense at all to me. We will; however, know very shortly. But then again 3000 troops ”’is almost inconsequential and nothing at this point other than strutting.
China is where the action will start.
Why Rex Tillerson’s comments on the South China Sea have Chinese state media up in arms
http://www.vox.com/world/2017/1/13/14264112/tillerson-south-china-sea-trump
As Chang said, the government does not comment on speculation. At this point in time Rex’s comments can be taken a number of ways.
The situation in the North China Sea is admittedly a very touchy one. Look for some editorials on it this coming week.
By the way, AJ thank you for your reference to vox.com
This a pole conducted last year showing the major concerns…..immigration, healthcare, poverty, etc around the world.

I just read the pole for the second time and I thank you for the site. If you have time today Professor, please email me your thoughts on the North China Sea situation.
Thanks you.
By the way, my offer stands on have you as a guest contributor on our Show.
I believe you mean poll.
Of course!

Trump team will not attend …Davos………..no swiss alps chocolate this year.
Hi Al, let’s have a look behind the curtain to see what George Soro’s is doing with his money. During The US election it came out that a company Soro’s controlled had it’s voting machines in fourteen U.S. states. George is heavily invested through his fund mostly in the new technology. WHY? Because if you can control the Artificially Intelligent machines and their wireless and wireline connections and the components that go into them you can eventually control the planet. This sounds far fetched however; it no longer is, this is a link to a small cap company in Quebec that George is buying into. He doesn’t need the money, he has enough to support himself for a thousand years. He is after the power that these machines can give men who control them. The company is listed on The TSX under the symbol EXF, it’s called EXFO Inc. They have a small float so when the price starts to rise it will be out of bounds for the average investor and a large short position, again why.? Like they say follow the money but in particular follow The Globalist’s funds if you want to know where we are headed.

So what did you expect, CFS?
I was hoping Obama would stop trying to put up roadblocks for Trump.
It’s not as intelligent as he usually is……these will be reversed by the stroke of a pen.
Agreed Professor.
One badly needed executive order though
Obama’s last chance to reduce the risk of nuclear disaster
http://www.politico.com/agenda/story/2017/01/obama-last-chance-reduce-risk-nuclear-disaster-000267
Thanks for the article, AJ.
I have to agree with the President of Ploughshares Fund.
I don’t agree with anyone, much. But everything Doc and Conner said was, spot on. Very good comments from them. Good stuff!
Yep, Chartster, a couple of intelligent and savvy individuals.
Al, perhaps I have missed something, but I have not seen one iota of anything approaching credible or even possible proof of illegals voting in large numbers, or even small numbers.
I can speak for California.
It is a fact that approx 800,000 illegal immigrants have been issed driving licences in California.
It is a fact there is no marking on the driving license to indicate illegality.
It is a fact there is no ID requirement to vote in California.
How can there be “proof”?
Thanks for adding some clarity on that point, CFS. Very good insight.
Dan,
As CFS said, it is impossible to refute your comment. Semantics is a very interesting subject.
I believe that you are correct when you say that there is no documentation defining a voter as a illegal immigrant.
Thank you.
Dan Mulder: You are both correct and a little incorrect. No one has shown any massive proof of voter fraud from illegals or legals but the recount did show more votes for HC in the major cities in Ohio and Michigan than voters. There was fraud on the part of the Democrats but yes, no one showed credible evidence of illegals voting in large numbers.
Of course Robert, illegals are not defined, for voter purposes as illegals. Pretty hard to define illegal voters when they don’t seem to fit into a definition.
Don’t believe everything Donald Trump tweets. Trump lost the popular vote by approximately 2.85 million votes. There was no mass voter fraud and there was not a hoard of illegal aliens voting. It is completely made up.
Interestingly RT seems to have a better grip on what is wrong in the US more than Dems or Repubs.
Very interesting thoughts regarding the markets. I disagree when it comes to the reality of a war on the scale of WW1 or WW2.
I disagree, CFS, because I think that it would lead to total destruction and I don’t see the “leaders” or whomever ever trying to take it to that level.
I guess we will see. Although, you and I will probably never see!
Al:
Given that a single nuclear weapon going off 300 miles over Kansas generating an EMP would kill 90% of Americans in one year, it’s probably pretty dumb to be goading Russia and China especially at the same time.
You are perfectly correct that there will be no destruction on the level of WW I or WW II, it will be far worse in WW III but also over in a week.
Morning Robert,
I simply don’t believe that the incoming administration will goading either Russia or China into a war.
You are correct, obviously about the nuclear destruction that would ensue. Not everyone is stupid.
Say hello to your lovely wife.
Technology is such that it would not make sense to think of nuclear weapons as big explosive bombs any more. Of course, many on ballistic missiles are of that type, but there are also neutron bombs intended to kill people by radiation without extensive destruction of buildings and infrastructure. There are bombs intended to eliminate electronics, such as the EMP type bombs and there are field nuclear bombs of small size designed to eliminate tank warfare. technology has evolved immensely since world war II. Mr. Moriarty is correct in stating afew EMPs could effectively kill the electrical grid, which a few years ago would possibly lead to the slow death through cold and starvation of 90% of the population, because it would not be possible to restore the grid quickly.
Some efforts have quietly been made to ameliorate this danger and although the death toll would still be large, even possibly the majority of the population if the transportation system also collapsed, the projected number of deaths decreases every passing year.
The swamp creatures in DC do need to be removed, nevertheless, so we do not find ourselves at war by mistaken over-ambition and stupidity.
CFS:
Totally agree on removal of the swamp creatures.
I hope we can make it to the incoming administration. I will admit I am totally baffled by the actions of the military and Obama in sending troops and tanks to surround Russia. Are they insane?
Obamy is insane…..no doubt about that………
5 days to go……..and bye, bye brainless o…
HOPE WE CAN BELIEVE IN>>>>>>>>that we make it till Friday
But you might here him refer to me as Dick for making that comment.
I have not said that “nobody like Trump” because that is definitely not the case.
Bob M, Russia, has been the bogeyman for The US since the end of The First World War, it’s about time people started to realize what is going on. DT
That is one century ago!
I haven’t heard Al say that nobody likes Trump since he won the election.DT
I simply do not understand the utter wimpish behavior of British politicians.
Germany and the UK are the major financial entities that support the EU.
That gives the UK power.
Germany exports much more to the UK than the UK does to the EU.
That gives the UK power.
France exports to the UK much of the wine drunk in the UK, with Spain and the US next.
Yes, the UK has major banking interests, which Germany would delight in taking over.
But make no mistake, the EU loses more than the UK if trade is cut-off.
So why is the UK even contemplating continuing with its payments to the EU?
By the time the UK gets around to meaningful negotiations, two years from now, the EU will have probably already disintegrated!
P.S. The economy in the UK is booming right now thanks to the austerity measures introduced by Cameron and the decrease in regulations.
Why, on earth, anyone believes Keynesian socialist economics is the way to go, completely eludes me.
Cut government drag! Reduce bureaucracy by 10% every year, and we will have real growth.
Eliminate tenure in Universities and schools and we might even get an improving educational system, instead of being around 20th internationally.
Cut government drag – yes
Reduce bureaucracy by10% – I would think so.
Tenure – You would know more about that than me
Interesting coverage of Space-X and Iridium satellites.
You can’t allow China and Russia to align their interests, China has manufacturing and Russia has energy. The two need each other, The US needs to be friends with both to keep them in balance. DT
Well, of course. But are you suggesting actions that would keep them apart. Seems to me that if he three countries could work together that would be idea!
off topic;
I have heard an unconfirmed rumor that Israel is considering offering the US permanent naval faciulities in the port of Haifa as a way of reducing the probability of any attack from Iran.
CFS:
That’s interesting because all that Iran has ever threatened to do is defend their own country. They have never indicated any interest in attacking anyone else.
It’s Israel that wages war on all their neighbors through their client state, the US. In Iraq the US lost probably 10,000 Americans if you count the mercenaries and spent $2 trillion fighting a war for Israel. Israel didn’t lose a single soldier and didn’t spend a dime.
Perhaps Israel can convince Trump to nuke Iran for them. There is no other way to level the country, it’s too big and too well defended for a conventional war.
Regarding the recent shooting in the head of an unconscious Palestinian (allegedly attacked Israeli), captured on video, I see that 67% of Israelis think the shooter is innocent of any crime.
53% of Israelis apparently believe that shooting alleged attackers on the spot, even if they have already been incapacitated, is the correct course of action.
I always make the distinction between Zionists and Jews. But these numbers about Israeli opinion in general are sobering.
Israelis aren’t doing themselves any favors. I doubt this will end well for them.
good comment on the distinction between zionist and jews……..that is exactly where most get it wrong….
As always, Robert, interesting comments.
When does the can kicking stop do ya think guys? We all know America is not in great shape. Here in Aus, we are clinging on to some economic growth. China is not convincing.
Depending on whose numbers you believe, for every worker in the private labor force in the US, the debt and unfunded obligations of the government are between $1,000,000 and $1,800,000.
The can kicking might go on a good while.
