The Mother Lode

Hey, boys and girls, would you, too, like to be able to make obscure references to distant members of the NWO? I'm not sure what this site is all about - it's so massive. But I did note that I can find Gloria Steinem with ease, but there's no Dylan Avery and no Steven E. Jones? Obviously their goal is to show the suspicious inter-relationships between the powerful, but not the whack-jobs who are spewing nonsense! Surely Dr. Jones has membership in some organization, somewhere?

The immediate giveaway is the highlighted articles in the middle of the home page. They are obviously CT bounders and cads.

http://www.namebase.org

Check out the source documents. On the surface it would appear to be every "official" membership list in the public domain, but you still have to wonder why Dr. Jones doesn't show up? Does he not belong to ANYTHING?

Find a pet name - better if you go to the left of center or waay left of center and start linking and reading. Some searches seem innocuous, but click on the book or article title (top results on the screen) and read their little capsule reviews.

Better yet, click on "Namebase", and on the following screen, take the tutorial. Interesting choice to demonstrate the database. "Who's Behind Columbia University". If you continue with the tutorial, the final page comes out as the assuredly disingenuous item below:

Quote:
We have no idea what it means; we're just trying to demo NameBase. But by comparing the 1968 trustees to the 2000 trustees, we can say that a shift has occurred. In 1968, the connections of Columbia trustees to U.S. intelligence and the military-industrial complex were massive. These have been largely replaced by connections to international business and investment banking. Today there is only one trustee with significant connections to U.S. intelligence (although it's also true that he's chairman of the CU board).
This reflects the New World Order after the cold war. Covert funding and arm-twisting for cultural programs, academic area studies, and general political and mass-media influence are no longer needed; nothing on the horizon can threaten U.S. hegemony. At the same time, technology has made it easier for businesses to cross borders. Isn't it wonderful? Just count all the money that the trustees are making. (Be sure not to factor in most of the people in this country, not to mention the rest of the world, because they don't count anyway.)

If you can afford Columbia's tuition, you're invited to join in the fun. On top of your tuition, the university needs your soul and your conscience as a down payment on future wealth and success in the new monoculturized, globalized economy. That's not too much to ask, is it?

Because someday this rising tide will lift all boats. Don't take our word for it. Just ask the professors who've been hired by Columbia's trustees.

And ask your library or student government to subscribe to NameBase ($200 for two years of unrestricted access from any campus computer) so that we can continue to add names, and you can continue to find them.
"We have no idea what it means.... BUT.... "

There are also "6 degrees of separation" type charts available on many names. This site would require about nine thousand hours to mine completely. I have to think, though, that CT debunkers may be able to pull the rug out of whackos who claim to be former Agents or one of the other rosters they so kindly publish.

I'm saving it in my reference file, under "Know Thy Enemy".

Thanks. Now we can keep up with the wandering dotted lines.

That namebase works like something I would expect the CIA or FBI to have...interesting.

Seems someone else is keeping tabs on certain people.

I love "pot calling the kettle black" items such as this...

Don't you think it's a dangerous enterprise to be making too much connections? I mean, with the 6 degrees of seperation, I'm sure you can put me in with the "conspiracy", even yourself.

Just a friendly advice.

Dangerous for whom? For me? Are you worried i might get paranoid? Thanks but believe me, there is no need to be worried. If i were, i wouldn't write here or at least had called one or two of you shills or agents (for example that David-Icke-linking lizardfriend stew ).

These tools are very useful. I used a link to Political Friendster in one of my first posts here and it showed only one degree of separation. Remember? It was their Adnan Khashoggi-page.

Concerning you and me - of course we're in, havn't you read the book i posted lately?

Maybe it's lazy of me, but I rather not make these kinds of connections unless they are publicly established. I get the feeling when you start on that road, it's diffiicult to get off it. But if you say you're strong enough to remain objective, then I won't worry. But for my self... I think I'll pass.

I haven't read it, but since you seem to like it, I'll take a look at it. But I must say that the title isn't encouraging...

I've read it - the author hisself categorizes it as "teen" on one site. It's meant to be a parody, but it's like Truman Capote on amphetamines without the vocabulary or education. It's a 20 page rant spaced out over triple that number of pages. It's a one trick pony. Boring after the first five pages. I'm assuming CE recognizes that it's a joke.

I guess Rev Priest is right. I'm too thick to understand this joke.
