  • The Bourne Legacy New Film Trailer

    Robert Ludlum
    Robert Ludlum

    The Books by Robert Ludlum  based on the Character of Jason Bourne is perhaps the only film produced in sequence after Ian Fleming’s James Bond.

    As a standard, Ludlum’s Books,Bourne Identity,Bourne Supremacy. Bourne Ultimatum,The Parsifal Mosaic,The Matarese Circle,The Rhinemann  Exchange,Berlin Deception ,Gemini contenders-all these books have either of these things in common.

    -A coterie unaccountable to any one, pulls the strings to engineer World Order.

    -A Complex ,Covert Operation, normally turning sour,especially by the Consular Ops,USA.

    The plot may appear to be simple, yet by the time one goes through, he is perplexed,so complex is Ludlum’s way of weaving the Story.

    Normally one would fail to go through the first hundred pages patiently,this is Ludlum’s Style of narration.

    Once you are through the first hundred pages,there is no stopping.

    Most of the Operations, Organisations mentioned in the Books have some element of truth in them.

    He always indirectly hints at Illuminati in all his Books.

    He also assumes a certain amount knowledge of  International Affairs on the part of the readers.

    By and large, Ludlum is a good read,for his plots and his mastery over the language(though some phrases like ‘he roared’ etc- and the lady characters seem to be glorified for no real reason).

    The new Bourne Film is being released in August 2012.

  • Bourne again: “Green Zone” a remarkable movie-Trailer and Movie


    LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – In “Green Zone,” director Paul Greengrass brings the frenetic, run-and-gun style with which he utterly transformed the movie thriller in the Jason Bourne series to a different kind of thriller, one with a sharper political edge
    For “Green Zone” explores the Bush administration’s willingness to embrace palpable lies over murky truths in order to sell the Iraq War to the American public
    Iraq mostly has been a nonstarter at the box office, but this is Matt Damon, Greengrass and the “Bourne” team reunited on another breathless venture into ticking-clock urgency. So Universal should easily overcome that hurdle to rack up considerable theatrical coin in North America and overseas.

    Drawing on his years as a British television journalist covering global conflicts for ITV, Greengrass brings a cinema verite style to his thrillers. He makes these movies look as if a guerrilla camera crew has somehow tagged along with a movie’s protagonist to catch key moments in an unfolding story as it explodes in the character’s face.

    In Hitchcock terms, the movie has both a goal and a MacGuffin. The goal is the determination by U.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller (Damon) to discover why his team of inspectors comes up empty every time commanders send them to find chemical weapons in the Iraqi desert. The MacGuffin is a small notebook an Iraqi general grabbed four months earlier as the U.S. invasion began. It contains the addresses of Baathist safe houses in the Baghdad area.
    Endangering the lives of his soldiers to hit a target, which Pentagon “intel” has fingered as a storage site for MWDs, and again finding nothing, Miller wants answers. Returning to Baghdad, he encounters three people who could supply them: Defense Intelligence agent Clark Poundstone (Greg Kinnear), CIA station chief Martin Brown (Brendan Gleeson) and Wall Street Journal foreign correspondent Lawrie Dayne (Amy Ryan). Miller doesn’t like what he hears.

    All the intelligence comes from a single source. This source has confirmed Dayne’s many stories about Saddam Hussein’s stockpiles of MWDs and now pinpoints the sites Miller’s team fruitlessly searches. Then Miller runs across an individual who does have accurate information. A local, English-speaking Iraqi who calls himself Freddy (Khalid Abdalla) risks his life to approach Miller to tell him that key Iraqi army figures, all wanted by coalition forces, are meeting in a house nearby.

  • Why We’re Fascinated by the Paranormal, Masonic Myths and Secret Societies


    Most of the statements in the article are true.Antichrist concept,Illuminati are true, they exist;as to their plotting and directing world affairs are fodders for Robert Ludlums and Don Browns.If you carefully see their plot development you can see their ability to make you believe what they project may be true;therein lies their creativity,But nothing more.
    At the same time you can not dismiss Ouija board,Talking with the dead,UFO,UMO,Etheric travel and the like for these phenomena are documented and needs research.
    As for as free masons are concerned they are a group of people with certain beliefs and have certain rituals, so does every Religion.That’s all to it.
    If even for arguments sake, if they want to change society by manipulation, let them try.After all Christianity and Islam has been doing so for years.

    The paranormal pops up everywhere these days. In the last week, two different people have warned me against Ouija boards. In a video posted on YouTube, Richard Heene—who pretended a few weeks ago that his son was trapped in a runaway weather balloon—ponders the question of whether Hillary Clinton is one of those bloodthirsty, shape-shifting, humanoid alien “reptilians” that conspiracy theorists believe are planning a global takeover. At least three different ghost-hunting reality shows are currently airing on cable, all of them featuring muscular dudes storming down hallways in deserted schools and jails clasping electronic recording devices and howling, “Did you hear that?!”

    This is hardly the first time in history that people have suddenly started spouting prophecies and speaking with the dead. These fads come in waves, usually fostered in the wake of unbearable tragedy. What else to do about earthquakes, floods, epidemics, dictators and wars than wonder which demon or deity devised this living hell and why, and what sacrifice or sorcery might make it stop? It is always fear and despair that sets us on this train of thought. During a gold rush or when we’ve just been given a clean bill of health, we need not believe in magic.

    In the Black Death-ridden Middle Ages, chilled and starved by a climate shift now known as the Little Ice Age, Europe became obsessed with the body parts of saints. Crystal-encased, gem-bedecked bones and hanks of hair and half-mummified fingers, heads and hearts were credited with curative powers. Pilgrims packed cathedrals housing so-called holy relics, sometimes trampling the sick and weak during stampedes. Centuries later, the occult became the next big thing again as World War I and the 1918 flu epidemic found seances filling entire auditoriums around the world. Yet another paranormal paroxysm crested in the early 1970s: Think Watergate, Vietnam and the post-’60s awareness—a tragedy for some—that nothing would ever be the same again.

    And now: Twin Towers. Financial collapse. War. Flood. The H1N1 virus is our plague.

    Or is it? “In recognition of the continuing progression of the pandemic, and in further preparation as a nation,” as he put it, Barack Obama declared a national state of emergency on October 23. This declaration allows the federal government to waive certain requirements regarding prevention and treatment procedures because “the potential exists for the pandemic to overburden health care resources in some localities,” Obama said.

    But the folks at AntichristIdentity.com would probably say this is just his latest step in “progressing the Antichrist system that is gathering pace after the recent world economic upheaval”—a system that “implicates not only Barack Obama but also Javier Solana of the European Union, Prince Charles of Wales, Queen Beatrix of Netherlands and Prince Hassan of Jordan,” a “power bloc” that “will drive the Antichrist world government.” The folks at BeastObama.com call it “amazing stuff going on here, right before our eyes … and it fits the pattern set out in Revelation 13.”

    Every paranormal paroxysm involves politics. That’s only natural. We cannot help but brood about whomever rules the world. Is their might the result of keen diplomacy—or sigils chiseled into halls-of-power floors? Who’s really in that entourage? We cannot help but wonder as, joking-but-not-quite-joking, we doodle cartoons of George W. Bush with devil horns.

    It’s all about control, as that’s what wizards, angels, demons, gods and elected officials wield. Is it such a long leap from superpower to supernatural?

    Rumors of a secret cabal plotting to create a New World Order have been swirling almost ever since the Old World Order began. The nature of these shady puppeteers depends on who’s doing the worrying. Jews have been evergreen suspects, whether it’s the Elders of Zion or my penniless ancestors slogging through the Polish mud. Secret societies such as the Knights Templar and Freemasons stoke automatic fear: What are they doing in there?

    As initiated members of a nondenominational, multiracial, all-male society whose origins are veiled in mystery but was probably founded in the late 16th century, Freemasons base their symbology on the tools of traditional stonemasons and allude, in their top-secret, tell-no-tales rituals, to the building of the Temple of Solomon. They wear lambskin aprons and do things with compasses, and they’ve been blamed for darn near everything. The Vatican officially condemned the brotherhood in 1738 for being “as political as they were religious,” writes Jay Kinney in The Masonic Myth: Unlocking the Truth About the Symbols, the Secret Rites, and the History of Freemasonry (HarperOne, 2009). And even though George Washington, Paul Revere and Benjamin Franklin were all Masons (lending support to rumors that the Boston Tea Party was a Masonic plot), America’s first third party was the Anti-Masonic Party. It was founded in 1826 and four years later, Kinney tells us, 124 different anti-Masonic newspapers were thriving.

    Like others before and after him, Adolf Hitler believed that Freemasonry was a Zionist front. Railing against “the international world Jew” in Mein Kampf, he conjectured that “to strengthen his political position … the governing circles and the higher strata of the political and economic bourgeoisie are brought into his nets by the strings of Freemasonry. … The prohibition of Masonic secret societies,” Hitler predicted, would silence “the hissing of the Jewish world hydra.”

    Article 22 of the Hamas Covenant repeats the Jewish/Mason claim, and then some: “With their money, they formed secret societies, such as Freemasons, Rotary Clubs, the Lions and others in different parts of the world for the purpose of sabotaging societies.” Other conspiracy theorists charge the Masons with faking the moon landing, worshiping Satan and assassinating JFK.

    “Within the thriving subculture of present-day born-again Christianity,” writes Kinney, a longtime Gnosis magazine editor and 32nd-degree Knight Commander Court of Honor in Freemasonry’s Scottish Rite, “anti-Masonic books are a mainstay,” thanks to evangelists such as Pat Robertson, who has called the brotherhood “a mystery religion designed to replace the old Christian world order of Europe and America.” Kinney mocks those “legions of anti-Masons, most of them superstitious believers in the occult as a demon-infested quagmire,” who “shiver dramatically as they hawk their books and videos.” He also notes that British conspiracy theorist David Icke, the most famous proponent of the reptilian concept, posts material at his Web site alleging that “there are secret tunnels beneath every Masonic lodge to facilitate reptilian rendezvous.” Yet Kinney insists that Freemasonry’s origins were neither alien nor occult: “Rather, it seems to have been an attempt to create a nucleus of men of goodwill, over and above fractious religious conflicts, using the motifs and symbols of temple building as working tools both for the deepening of the individual soul and for building an archetypal temple to the Most High in the collective imagination of humanity.”

    Okay, but what are they doing in there? And are they or are they not intertwined with the Illuminati, a soooopersecret club founded in Germany in 1776 and modeled on the Masons but which Kinney claims disbanded in the 1780s but which conspiracy theorists insist still thrives, boasting such members as Barack Obama and both Bushes. “All this chaos, genocide, ethnic cleansing and the overall disasters have a genuine purpose,” we read at Illuminati-News.com:

    “It is all very carefully planned by a few people, mostly men, behind the scenes, high up in the society. … These people on top, who basically are of Royal Bloodlines, is currently working on reducing the world population in order to easier maintain their control. … So who are those people I am talking about? They are basically 13 super wealthy families and their off-shoots, with the European Nobility on top, and their fellow travelers are the International Bankers. Their bloodlines go back in time—way back to old Babylon and further.”
