While Ron Paul may not have been physically assassinated like Bhutto was yesterday he has been assassinated in other ways. And while freedom hasn’t been assassinated yet, it’s not for lack of effort. In fact the global rush to fascism and the assassination of Ron Paul are intertwined. Ron Paul is freedom in a microcosm and is thus so thoroughly ridiculed, dismissed, and discredited. At first of course it was ignoring him to the point of absurd. In fact just last night I saw a poll where 6 Republican candidates were listed all the way down to Fred Thomson with a pitiful 4% and yet …. Drum roll ….. no Ron Paul. When he finally does get an interview it’s more like a walk through land mines and an interrogation then anything else.

But even though Ron Paul has not been physically assassinated what would happen if he was. What a ludicrous conspiracy question to ask and yet …. Someone has been assassinated yesterday and as I type this they are broadcasting the email where she says that if something happens to me then I hold Musharraf responsible. The same military dictator we have spent billions propping up even after he jailed thousands, suspended his constitution and declared martial law. Even after all that we backed him. What is more preposterous? That America would prop up a military dictator or that powerful people would be willing to eliminate someone they felt was a threat?

What would happen if Ron Paul was winning tremendously and was on course to win the presidency and threaten everything and then he was taken out? In Pakistan there is mass rioting and justly so. Would we riot in mass would we show our anger or would we just accept the old "extremist terrorist" angle? The Pakistani people will have nothing of the vacant argument of terrorists. They know that just days before their election something is wrong. They won’t accept any propaganda but Americans have been accepting propaganda for years. In fact to raise a question to the "official line" is to be unpatriotic and looney. But then there are those pesky weapons of mass destruction. During the build up to the war to even timidly propose that maybe we shouldn’t go to war or that maybe there aren’t any WMD’s was to get pummeled down as anti-american fool.

Now we know that Bush wanted that war long before he even got in office. Two years before he even announced his bid for office Bush talked openly about attacking Iraq. He said, "My father had all this political capital built up when he drove the Iraqis out of Kuwait and he wasted it.’ He said, ‘If I have a chance to invade….if I had that much capital, I’m not going to waste it. I’m going to get everything passed that I want to get passed and I’m going to have a successful presidency." "    ". And we know now that he knew there were no WMD’s and so he deliberately miss led us to have his war costing thousands of lives and squandering our military and reputation. At what point are we allowed to challenge the "official" spin? When can we begin to suspect the worst? How far can a leader go or how suspicious do things have to get before we just call a spade a spade?

In the war of words we are seeing a convergence of government/media/society that certain peoples and ideas are the bad guys without question and so there is no questioning any actions against them. I remember when Israel was bombing Lebanon back to the stone ages and they were firing and bombing apartment complexes. They said that there were terrorists in those buildings. But I remember thinking says who? Where’s the proof? Do they even have to give proof? Or just bomb and we have to take their word for it because they said the magic "go" word "terrorist". That’s it if you are in the right countries you can just say that word and everything is magically ok. What was Bush’s response to the assassination? They were extremists! Case closed. Not to the Pakistani’s. Last night while I typed most of this I thought "tomorrow they will have some phony evidence and an Al Qaeda bad guy" and poof I wake up to a late Christmas present. It’s magic how easy the world is to predict when it gets boringly predictable.

Even Pat Buchanan that bastion of freedom says we first have to look after American interests and need to stick with a MILITARY DICTATOR!!! And this from a Christian that bemoans the death of the west!!! What is the west without democracy and freedom? This is what globalism and elitism is all about. There are anointed good guys that get their wishes and the evil damned bad guys that better buckle. Any thing and anyone in between is a clueless twit that needs some serious re-education or simply collateral damage like the entire population of Pakistan. If not for America they may not even have this military dictator ruling over them but because it’s "in our best interests" the wishes and freedom of an entire nation are immaterial. Makes me wonder how free the world would really be if America did have a humble foreign policy and the corrupt dysfunctional attempts at world government were put to bed.

As terrifying as one person being assassinated there is something far more sinister. Freedom itself is being assassinated on a global scale and much of the death is in the flow of ideas. Ron Paul may not have been killed but his ideas, integrity and credibility are being assaulted daily by a machine that’s hell bent on a rush to its own goals. Globalism is the greatest threat to freedom the planet has ever known because it seeks to wipe out freedom once and for all. No place left to run and no place to hide. All countries and peoples under the iron grip of fascism. The single greatest threat to unlimited power and wealth is a free and powerful people. More specifically a free and powerful nation. It’s amazing that globalists never seem to think about that. There is only one candidate fighting seriously for freedom and so we witness the most lopsided handling of an election in America’s history.

Rome took hundreds of years to implode because back then it took months to get from one end to the other. Now as we accelerate towards integration the devolution happens ever swifter.

As time marches on things happen faster. In science they have a term for this. In the race for technological advancements the leaps come ever faster. If you were to graph the last 200 years back when we were on horse back to now you would find the line rising faster and faster till it begins to approach vertical. It’s called "the event horizon": a point in time where the technological leaps happen so fast that they appear to be instantaneously infinite. In politics things are happening faster and faster as we approach fantastic events and clashes of epic proportions. It’s as if an intelligent machine or power senses the urgency of a growing awakening and pushes harder, faster, more relentlessly. Where it takes off the gloves and flexes its muscles to see how much it can accomplish and get away with even while sensing the need to make the final push.

But there is a problem.

People!

People are infinite in variety and possible outcomes and nothing is certain. The push may become its own collapse as it will be in Pakistan. This desperate step will explode the population into total rebellion. They will accept nothing less then the end to this government. One can only hope that the same will be done on a world wide basis to all enemies of free people and countries.
