Operation Magic Lantern (FBI Now Targets Christian Defenders of Constitution )
Hal Lindsey Oracle (The Omega Letter) ^ | November 23, 2001 | Jack Kinsella

Posted on 11/24/2001 8:32:51 PM PST by OKCSubmariner

The FBI is developing a kind of trojan horse software that they can use to intercept voice-over-net communications. Presently, they can tap phones, and they can capture computer keystrokes, but they can't listen in to voice communications over the net. Enter the "Magic Lantern".

It's part of a wider FBI project called "Cyber Knight." Cyber Knight would allow investigators to secretly install over the Internet powerful eavesdropping software that records every keystroke on a person's computer, according to people familiar with the effort. Magic Lantern would let them listen in to voice over data communications.

Magic Lantern could be installed over the Internet by tricking a person into double-clicking an e-mail attachment or by exploiting some of the same weaknesses in popular commercial software that allow hackers to break into computers. That is what a "Trojan Horse" is.

Criminals, Terrorists and Foreign Spies

At least one antivirus software company, McAfee Corp., contacted the FBI on Wednesday to ensure its software wouldn't inadvertently detect the bureau's snooping software and alert a criminal suspect. The FBI software could be used with a court order against criminals, terrorists or foreign spies.

Who would qualify? According to a flyer issued by the FBI, someone who fits a terrorist profile would include "Doomsday Cult-Type Groups".

Fitting The Profile

The FBI identifies what it calls "Super Patriots" and describes as "'defenders' of the US Constitution against federal government and UN" as being among those who fit the terrorist profile. That is where this gets scary. I fit the profile. I am a fundamentalist. I believe we are living in the last days. I am a patriot who believes in the Constitution. I believe the UN is the forerunner of the global government of antichrist.

It Couldn't Happen Here

The Apostle John describes the government under antichrist. He says it will be global. [Rev 13:8] It will derive its power from control of a global economy. [Rev 13:17] It will slaughter all those who believe in Jesus. [Rev 13:7]. It will practice a form of counterfeit Christianity [Rev 13:11] that Paul describes as 'having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof' [2 Timothy 3:5].

The United States is not the whole world. It is actually only a tiny part of it, representing less than 5% of the global population. But America has always served as a benchmark for individual liberty and a restrainer of those who would steal that liberty.

A Christian Nation, Despite the Naysayers

Despite what the liberals say, America is and has always been a nation that functions under Christian principles, even when called by a different name. Less now than at its foundation, but still, America remains the most Christian nation on the face of the earth.

Even if it falls far short of what it could be, it is still head and shoulders above any other on that score. Most Americans reading John's description of one world under antichrist dismiss it as something that 'can't happen here'. And it couldn't, even a decade ago.

What It All Means

America has steadily been eroding those elements of our freedoms that would have presented a stumbling block to the antichrist. The reasons sound noble enough. Eliminating terror and terror networks worldwide is a noble cause. It seems right. "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death," wrote Solomon under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit in Proverbs 14:12. And that same Spirit felt that one fact important enough to repeat in Proverbs 16:25.

The Evolution of America

This is America -- still the freest nation the world has ever known. But it is evolving, forced into compromising those freedoms by circumstances beyond its control. That evolution is embodied by such things as the Operation CyberKnight, Operation Magic Lantern, Project Echelon, Project Carnivore, the Inslaw Project and others.

A Tracked Society

Those projects are transforming us into a tracked society. A society in which membership in the 'wrong' group, adherence to the 'wrong' values, belief in the 'wrong' theology can mean social death. How close is it? Consider what would happen if your social security account was closed. Without a Social Security number, you couldn't work, have a bank account, get a mortgage, or even rent an apartment. You couldn't earn a living. In short, you would be socially dead.

The Specter of Social Death

Membership in the wrong group today -- in America! -- can easily result in social death. Under antichrist, John says membership in the wrong group -- those who do not join his system symbolized by accepting a "mark" become socially dead. "And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." [Rev 13:17]. It couldn't happen here only a decade ago. For 1900 years it couldn't happen anywhere.

John was writing under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit of God Who knew it would happen everywhere, one day, in a single generation, somewhere in time. This generation. It isn't here yet. But it is fast approaching. You'd have to be blind to not see it coming. If it is this close, the Rapture of the Church is even closer. Where do you stand with Jesus? Time is running out.

Great comments.
And to think...I've been going around for months typing !NUTS.
I think I'll spell it out for them again...
!snoitaN detinU ehT wercS

Oh, well...guess I'll be seeing some of you around the campfire at the ol' Federal Holding Tank's special Saturday night mixers.
May I reserve a dance, preferably a waltz? I can dance, as well as think, backwards too. I've never been too fond of "pushing" my dancing partner around a dance floor. I prefer they follow where I'm leading, and then I'll turn around once a clear spot is open.
If they've got a really big dance floor, or few couples on the floor, it doesn't matter. Do you like to spin while dancing? I wouldn't want you to get all dizzy or ill as has happened to me before, much to my later embarrassment.

Personally, I am not worried about Bush, Ashcroft and company. It is when they are replaced by someone like Hillary. Then we need to worry. That could happen in four years. The war would still be going on. We will have to watch this closely.

Isn't this all inevitable? I prefer calling the period we are entering the "Time to Endure", rather than the "End Times". Because this is where the going gets tuff.

As a Christian you still have to yell truth into the gale force winds of deceit blowing in your face, even when doing so can and will get you either killed or imprisoned.

I have to admit some suprise at the time they didn't waste labling Christian, conservative, constitutionalists as terrorists, but whatever floats their boat, it doesn't matter.

I'm going to repeat post this on appropriate threads. Folks THINK they've got a 'born again' leader, well, they do.

There's a lot of Nazism starting to show now. The whole history of the Bush Dynasty is complementary to Nazism. . Here's some on jr.'s Satanic Society Membership. He was "Honored"

"TIME: But you sure shared a lot of the same upbringing: Andover, Yale, even Skull and Bones. Did you have any qualms, say, about joining an elite secret club like Bones?

Bush: No qualms at all. I was honored. I was fairly nonchalant. I didn't view it as a great heritage thing. I didn't take it all that seriously.

TIME: Demystify it a bit for those who might think it's a cross between a Masonic Lodge and the Trilateral Commission. Did your father show up for your initiation, like your grandfather showed up for his?

Bush: Without revealing all the great secrets? I got a few of my old club mates who could demystify it right off the bat. My dad didn't tap me. Someone a year ahead of me tapped me. There was an entry celebration. I can't remember whether my dad showed up or not. I don't think so."

"W. Averell Harriman (init. into Skull & Bones in 1913), the man who helped finance Hitler to power. The Skull and Bones also incorporates sexual activities into their practices. "The death of the initiate will be as frightful as the use of human skeletons and ritual psychology can make it..." (Esquire Magazine, "The Last Secrets of Skull and Bones", Ron Rosenbaum, p. 89) Sexual perversion is part of ritual psychology. Ron Rosenbaum, author of the Esquire Magazine article, stated that on initiation night, called tap night, "...if one could climb to the tower of Weir Hall, the odd castle that overlooks the Bones courtyard, one could hear strange cries and moans coming from the bowels of the tomb as the 15 newly tapped members were put through what sounded like a harrowing ordeal..." (Esquire, September, 1976, p. 86). Further, [initiates] "lay naked in coffins and tell their deepest and darkest sexual secrets as part of their initiation." (Esquire, p. 85). More Skull and Bones

These experiences in the coffins incorporated sexual pain and resulted in being born-again, into the Order, as we mentioned above. (Cooper, p.95) Powerful force charges through the participants of these ceremonies, transforming their lives dramatically. This type ritual is classic Satanism. Anton LaVey states, in his book (The Satanic Rituals: Companion To The Satanic Bible, (p. 57) "The ceremony of rebirth takes place in a large coffin.. This is similar to the coffin symbolism that...is found in most lodge rituals."

I'm a Christian and I have serious doubts about people who say the things that you say. Your ridiculous screen name reveals much more about you than you think it does. Please stop trying to associate yourself with us until you actually accept Christ as your savior. Until you do, you're working for the adversary.

Get Hillary in power and you will see America turn into a Waco or Ruby ridge. Libertarians have no idea how dangerous democrats' lack of repent is.

Essentialy the problem with the UN and the feds is that they do not want to be held responsible for their actions, completely unrepentant to the people while repentant to thugs in this world like China. If Hitlery got in power, you can imagine what would happen. THat woman is capable of doing the worst of things and never skip a beat at doing it. I believe she has holocaustic plans.

They will have no need for further Wacos and Ruby Ridges under the new anti-terrorism laws. People can simply be "disappeared" with no notice to families and friends, and, if they're tried at all, it can be done in secret. I know some here will shout that this is just a temporary wartime thing--but please, before you type it, consider. What time limit was written into these laws? Do these laws expire when the war does? Now look at the laws closely: define a "terrorist"--we all know from Ratcat's graphic of the FBI flyer what their notion of a terrorist is. It's us, folks, it's us, you and me--far more about us than about some Islamic extremist who wants to see the death of the U.S.

You said it! Well then, we best make hay while the sun shines, because the night is coming when no man can sow.

WHAT IS A PATRIOT?

PATRIOTS are not "Revolutionaries" trying to overthrow the government of the United States.

PATRIOTS are "Counter-Revolutionaries" trying to prevent the government of the United States from overthrowing the Constitution of the United States. - Unknown Author

What brings the PATRIOTS out of the woodwork?

When the constitutional process, the system of checks and balances set up by the Founders, has not just been thrown out of kilter, it has been thrown out the window. These socialist maneuvers are what attracts PATRIOTS to the streets of America.

A soft-brained, shrieking harpy like her wouldn't last but a few days in a set-up like that.

Heck, she tries to avoid inhabiting her own Congressional district if she can.

(Although a Fed set-up sounds actually like it would be an improvement over a few portions of South Central.)
