    You may not know that after Ruppert published the book, he was harrassed, then vandalized, finally his business was shut down and he fled the country, he was then poisoned, but he lived through it and is in Canada trying to recover healthwise.

    I have not heard that. But it surely doesn't surprise me that such a thing would happen. I'm sure "they" tried to attack his character and credibility as well. You know, the type of behavior that would closely represent what a fascist government would do.

    This is about space-based weapons and the shadow government's targeting of Hussein and the Gulf War in the 70's all in the name of power and greed.

    Just saw this movie. Wow. Did they really try that?

    Attempting to reduce major religions to astrological beliefs and then jumping into the ultra wacky 9/11 theories was definitely provocative. I'm guessing the producers thought this would give their argument greater strength.

    To be fair, I felt it is sensational much like Petrodollar Warfare. They are both entertaining and at times thought provoking.

    Worth watching.

    That's the strongest part of the movie.

    christianity did get altered and rewritten at the council of nicea to resonate with pagan historical traditions.

    and petrodollar warfare isnt sensationalist, its reality.

    It's been a while since I watched it, but even this part had many problems and some of the arguments were nonsensical if not dishonest. It's weird. You don't need to try that hard to show that christianity is a derivative of countless other religions and has no more substance than any of them. But they tried too hard and connected some dots that weren't there.
