Quantcast

From Freedom To Fascism--a film by the late Aaron Russo

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1656880303867390173# (I have tried repeatedly to include the frame with video, to no avail. Perhaps someone else will re-post with better luck. In fact, this is important enough that MANY need to do so and share it with everyone you know, so they cannot say they were never warned.)

This excellent and disturbing film, by the late Aaron Russo, was presented at the Cannes film festival and deemed by CBS to be the most important film of the year. It will get mixed treatment from those exposed to it. I suffer no illusions about the matter.

There will be those who will watch this film all the way through and still choose to say "the sun is not shining at noonday". There will be those who watch little to none of it and still claim to have all the "fact"s they need to make a correct conclusion. They do so at their own peril. There will be those who make claims of any nature necessary to keep from facing the truth, simply because the truth requires one to be responsible and makes one uncomfortable. Ignoring the disease does not make it go away.

Aaron Russo also was interviewed by Alex Jones of Infowars.com and made some startling statements about his relationship with Nick Rockefeller and what was disclosed to him by the same. I guarantee you will be stunned. I recommend you listen to the entire interview, although over an hour long, because it will give you a feel for the type of man Russo was. It's important to know your friends and your enemies. Russo was a patriot and a good man at heart. He was approached by wealthy and powerful people to join them--people cold of heart and calculating in nature. You can feel Russo's skin crawl and his spirit squirm as he tells of the things Nick Rockefeller disclosed to him. There will be revelations of new information, for sure, if you have not previously seen this film.

May I suggest you check http://restoretherepublic.net and http://frontsight.com. The first is a nationwide network forming to connect patriots who want to take back their nation from the fascists who have stolen it. The second is the premiere firearms training site in the nation that is for a short time offering a nearly $1,000 two-day handgun course for a mere $100, and can be used any time or transferred to anyone you wish. When even marines and longtime SWAT team members say they learned some new tricks at Frontsight. you can be sure it is worth the effort to find out more.

    If I understand this correctly, we are already a police state..
    you cannot drive without drivers licenses or insurance, so the govt already has their hands in your pocket.

    you cannot NOTpay taxes, you will go to jail, the govt needs your money even though it is not legal.

    you cannot have a bank account without your social security number, another govt trick.

    you cannot get a job without signing a w2 which gives your employer the ILLEGAL right to take money from what you have earned and send it to the govt.

    you as a citizen MUST file an income tax return so that the govt can tax your money again, which is ILLEGAL.

    you must file taxes or they will confiscate your property and throw you in prison for not paying this ILLEGAL taxation by our govt.

    you take your paycheck to your bank and deposit the check, when you go to withdraw your earned money from the bank you are given paper money (worthless) and then you are taxed at the end of the year on the money you have earned.

    you take your money (with chip implanted) to the grocery store to buy food and you are taxed (illegally) again and the coded note you paid for your food has just recorded all your information on an id chip and sent it to the govt data base.

    you go to the doctor who already has your ss# and they report your medical info (HIPPA) to the govt so that they may implant your information on an id chip that connects your grocery buying to your income tax, to your bank account to your job to your income tax return and leaves you wondering why you are working at all for these thugs.

    Now if I go to a bank and hold it up, I get phoney notes with id chips in them to tell them where this money is connected....no connection here....but then I go to the grocery store to buy groceries with the money I stole from the bank and what happens then....whose money is it....to whom does the money belong?

    If I bought groceries with this money will the police be standing at the cash register to arrest me? If not, then how will they trace this money to me (the new bank robber)? Sounds like they are creating such a scenario for people who are fed up with the system. They are creating a nation run by street thugs, because this is exactly what will happen.

    So this little scenario begs for the id chip and id card carrying members so that the govt can keep track of everything that we do. and say!

    I love the idea that WE THE PEOPLE need to complain and march and save our freedoms, however, I am realistic at the same time.

    The people advocating that we fight them, Ron Paul, Aaron Russo...Joe Bannister...Joe Wilson....they talk out of both sides of their mouths because, all of them have a drivers license, pay car insurance, own mortgages and some have corporate businesses ...and they all except Joe Bannister, pay taxes.....so this tells me something.

    The something that it is telling me is, they don't like what is happening, they see what is happening and why, but that doesn't alter the fact that WE THE PEOPLE stood still too long ago and let it happen and now we don't have a choice. There is NO WAY that we can change this govt control over this nation because the first step to overthrow any govt is anarchy and we would be arrested. I don't care how many citizens think this is wrong and IT IS WRONG, as citizens we don't stand a chance. The first thing our govt would do would be to call on the UN to bring outside troops into this country to quell any anarchy or uprising, so in essence, we bought the farm on this.

    Are you going into work tomorrow and quit your job, are you going to turn in your drivers license, are you going to close your bank account, are you going to give up your lovely little cottage to these thugs, are you going to give up your college financial aid (govt), are you going to quit buying a marriage licenses, hunting licenses, fishing licenses..........the answer is a resounding NO!

    It is easy to sit here and tell someone what is wrong with the system, but it is a whole different story when you are asked to become a sovereign entity and sign a piece of paper stating that you WILL NOT require the govt to lend a hand to help you or ANY of your descendents in the now or the future. People WILL NOT take that step because they know that WE HAVE already sold out.

    When Madeline O'Hare petitioned to have prayer taken out of the schools,

    When the Federal Reserve was created,

    When the Council on Foreign Relations was created,

    When the IMF (International Monetary Fund) was created,

    When the bankers started controlling this country....

    NOBODY stood up, NOBODY fought them back when....our ancestors didn't have the stomach for it and now we find ourselves slaves to a monetary system that we love, because we keep supporting it.....

    Yes, I want a FREE country, but in doing so remember, for every action there is a reaction, and if we start to rebel, we will feel the force of the police state, they have us where they want us and every one of you sitting on a computer right now are just their pawns, slaves, serfs....who keep bringing in the money they live their lavish lives off of.

    This is the movie that led me to Dr. Ron Paul. If you haven't watched it yet, you need to. I have handed out dozens of copies. This explains why Paul's war on the Fed is so necessary. Plus it explains that the IRS is the gestapo for the fed. No law exists requiring you to file, yet everyone falls for the scam.

    Fascinating. I have heard many times that the government does not have the authority to tax wages and salaries because it cannot produce the law giving them such authority. But, I have not heard so many reasonable people describe their own experiences in asking to be shown the authority in law passed by Congress and signed by the President in a form that would pass the criteria established by the Supreme Court before. This makes it seem all the more likely that there is no such law. Meanwhile, the government looks more and more like an out-of-control bully. The bully seems to enjoy being a bully too.

    This is retarded. People whining about stuff that's been in place for decades or longer and suddenly it's a problem. We managed to become and stay the best, most powerful nation on Earth with this "fascism" (read the history of Germany, Italy and Japan in the 30's and 40's, pay close attention to first-person accounts. Fascism isn't what you think it is.)

    In the meantime, I'll don my tinfoil hat so the government can't read my brainwaves.

    Note: I am not saying we should just lie quietly while things go on. Speak up (reasonably). Get involved in actual real political events. Discuss rationally and calmly the future and what you think should be done to 1) remedy this 2) replace the system in place with something that doesn't lead to societal collapse.

    Talking about "fascism" just makes you sound batspit crazy.

    I recommend history books for you. What actually happened in Europe in the 30s has zero bearing here and now. Period. Tyranny may very well rise in America some day, but we (=America, you included) will support it with open arms and it will come differently than anything in the past.

    The form that socialism and control of the people takes in developed countries in which most of the people have property is always primarily fascism. Yes, the governments control the schools and huge tracts of land and water and such collective ownership may be viewed more as communism, but the indirect control of our property, value choices, and the micro-management of our lives is fascist. Yes, Hitler's Nazism was a bit more fanatical, but our situation is not far from Mussolini's fascism. Remember, he protected the Jews until the Nazis brought him back to power after he had been deposed, so you cannot say that antisemitism is a necessary component of fascism.

    SUDDENLY it's a problem? Just how long is the statute of limitations on tyranny? What a ....politeness restrains me. You didn't really get it, did you? You want to go back to your football, beer and peanuts and pretend that no one is oppressing you and that all conservatives are paranoid nutcases. Do it. This nation is so far free enough to allow you that liberty. But the noose is tightening and don't whine when your door gets kicked in some night and the guys with guns take your wife one direction, your kids another and you in a third. I'll be too busy fighting elsewhere to come help you by then. A tinfoil hat won't do anything to protect you either.
