CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTOR CLOWN

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

When I was 16 years old I registered for the military draft as a Conscientious Objector.  You can too.  

(Painting by Ron English)

A conscientious objector (CO) is an “individual who has claimed the right to refuse to perform military service” on the grounds of freedom of thought, conscience, and/or religion. In some countries, conscientious objectors are assigned to an alternative civilian service as a substitute for conscription or military service. Some conscientious objectors consider themselves pacifist, non-interventionist, non-resistant, or antimilitarist.  The international definition of conscientious objection officially broadened on March 8, 1995 when the United Nations Commission on Human Rights resolution 1995/83 stated that “persons performing military service should not be excluded from the right to have conscientious objections to military service.”  That definition was re-affirmed in 1998, when the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights document called “Conscientious objection to military service, United Nations Commission on Human Rights resolution 1998/77” officially recognized that “persons [already] performing military service may develop conscientious objections.

The most famous American conscientious objector. Cassius Clay Jr. ( MUHAMMED ALI) was an Olympic gold medal winning boxer and 3 time professional Heavyweight boxing champion in the life of his boxing career. In 1964 Clay converted to Islam and changed his name to Muhammed Ali. In 1966 Ali was drafted for the Viet Nam war. He refused to be inducted and applied as a conscientious objector. His application was denied by the local draft board. His title and boxing license were temporarily suspended. Ali took his case to the Supreme Court and was eventually granted CO status and returned to boxing.

MAHATMA GANDHI is the father of India. During that country’s fight for independence Gandhi was their political and spiritual leader. He was the pioneer of resistence to tyranny through non-violent mass civil disobedience. But Gandhi was more than just a wise man in a loin cloth. He was educated in London as a lawyer. During the Boer War in South Africa Gandhi served as a Sargeant Major in the British Ambulance Corps.

EVERY PACIFIST IS A CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTOR.  NOT EVERY CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTOR IS A PACIFIST.

“THE MEDIA” = CIA MEDIA

The 1997 film “Wag The Dog”, (see my Blog post — https://lawrencerspencer.com/2011/05/02/wagging-the-rabid-dog/) reveals (satirically) how the “news” on television is created to control and manipulate YOUR MIND.  When we turn on our TV set or go to the movies, we  are witnessing an artificially created reality controlled by the CIA.  Why do they go to all the trouble and expense to control “The Media”?  They want to OWN YOU!  The fastest and simplest way to “own” you, is to control everything you think is “reality”.  If you want to “free your mind”, stop watching TV.  Then stop reading newspapers, magazines and listening to the opinions of other people, like me….   Eventually, you will discover that you have time to THINK YOUR OWN THOUGHTS.  The truth is within you.  Reality is what YOU create for yourself.  Learn more about the role of the CIA in the quotations below:

“We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the US public believes is false.”
-William J. Casey, 1981.

“The CIA owns everyone of any significance in the major media.”
– William Colby, former CIA director

“We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.”
– William Casey, CIA Director (from first staff meeting, 1981)

“Deception is a state of mind and the mind of the State.”
– James Angleton, head of CIA counter intelligence from 1954-1974

“I never would have agreed to the formulation of the Central Intelligence Agency back in forty-seven, if I had known it would become the American Gestapo.”
– Harry S. Truman

“The individual is handicapped by coming face-to-face with a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists.”
– J. Edgar Hoover, ex-FBI director on the New World Order conspiracy

“If the American people knew what we have done, they would string us up from the lamp posts.”
– George H. W. Bush

” I will splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds.”
– John F. Kennedy

“Fifty men have run America, and that’s a high figure.”
– Joseph Kennedy, father of JFK, in the July 26th, l936 issue of The New York Times

“There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar weekly salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth; to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities, and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.”
