Behind the Spooks

Addendum #1. I sent Electric Universe’s Wal Thornhill my ‘A Sky Dance’ video. Here’s his reply:

Thanks Allan,

they look like ionospheric sprites usually seen above powerful thunderstorms. But they could be there in a clear sky to power an earthquake.

Very interesting!

Wal

Check out the Wiki photo (jnset) of an Ionospheric sprite. Yep, looks like that’s what it was. Those of you who haven’t done so yet, please go to the Electric Universe site, and to Wal’s site as well. Trust me; you will learn something.

I believe that Wal has solved – or at least come close — the issue of the mechanism of gravity. (Einstein’s curved space theory is not only incorrect, but… ‘not even wrong’, as Wolfgang Pauli would say, since his reasoning is clearly circular: Einstein gives us no mechanism for how mass ‘bends’ space-time, so he has really told us nothing. In fact, he has not even told us what ‘space-time’ is. For example, what metric would you use in measuring ‘space-time’? Meters? Seconds? ‘Meter-seconds’? Meaningless crapola.)

Addendum #2: I ask you to think about the fact that the substance of what follows on this post cannot be found anywhere (that I am aware of) at any alt media outlet. Add to that the fact that what I’ll tell you today is, One, True, and Two, Important.

Pretty much every morning I wake up with the thought that I’ll finish the Sam Harris letter today, but then something distracts me. Next thing I know it’s sundown and I’m futzing with my camera and rummaging for a good movie to watch.

This morning – aside from Wal Thornhill’s revelation in my Inbox – the distraction was a movie I finally watched yesterday (I’d been putting it off) and which has been bugging me almost since the opening credits. The movie is titled Behind the Curve, and is about the flat earth ‘movement.’ (Clever title, no? I mean, as clever as, say, Into Thin Air, and clever for the same multiple-meanings reason.)

I knew from the get-go that it’s a spook movie promoting a spook agenda/black op, so after my viewing I did some quick research on the filmmakers; I quickly found an interview wherein Caroline Clark, one of the producers, blabbed that she’d done a previous film, on the Sandy Hook ‘hoaxers.’ Patrolling Sandy Hook is that one’s title. Turned out to be a hit piece on Wolfgang Halbig, one of the true heroes of the exposure of that hoax.

Although I wasn’t about to waste a lot of time on exposing the filmmakers as state moles, it didn’t take long to find additional evidence. In this clip of Caroline Clark answering audience questions at the Brooklyn Film Festival, she is unable to answer two simple and direct queries: Who (in the production) decided to target Wolfgang Halbig and why the ‘outside money’ all went to their production when it was supposed to be for all student projects (it was technically a Notre Dame student film). The stuttering non-response said it all, i.e., the same entity who financed the film also told them to target Wolfgang. An added takeaway from this mess is the extent of infiltration of black ops on our college campuses (as if we needed more evidence of that!). The knowledge that Behind the Curve is part of a black op makes the film a more interesting experience.

In fact, the film (it’s all over the Net) really is worth a view if you view it as an exercise in understanding how these ops work. Here are a few of my notes:

The Flat Earth Op has been quite successful – otherwise they would not be promoting it with this film (nor would they bother to make the film). Yes, in spite of the half-assed proofs that the earth is in fact a sphere, the film is very pro-flat earth.

Addendum: They could have ended the ‘controversy’ 5 minutes in, when, from the south shore of Whidbey Island, Washington State, Mark Sargent pointed at the Seattle skyline and said that given the distance ‘…all we should see is the tops of the tallest buildings.’ Meanwhile, that’s precisely what we do see, i.e., the tops of a handful of buildings. (See insert)

The FE target audience is made clear from the get-go: folks who tend to feel ‘alienated’ and who don’t trust the PTB. Yes, obvious, but it’s nice to see them formally own up. (I say ‘obvious’ but I mean in subtext and if you’re paying attention.)

Since they were looking for a ‘wide release,’ there were some fine lines they had to tap dance around. With one or two exceptions no FEers were displayed as nut-jobs, and the two main characters, Sargent and ‘Patricia Steere’ were given wide latitude to look ‘normal’ and even ‘charming.’

An amusing moment was Steere telling us that she had never thought about the fact that the last three letters of her first name are ‘CIA’ and that she is meant to ‘steer’ the masses. She goes on to say that the CIA wouldn’t be so stupid as to name an operative that way. This produced a howl from yours truly, plus a bit of embarrassment – I hadn’t thought of her name as meaningful in that way. (The spooks in fact love that sort of thing.) Steere of course is a classic honeypot/dangle, a fantasy for alienated, lonely single guys, i.e., the classic ‘mom’s basement’ Youtube viewer.

Another good moment was Sargent’s reaction to an unexpected query from the audience: ‘Who in the CIA planted you in the movement?’ His deer-in-the-headlights look was priceless. Then the questioner let him off the hook with ‘Just kidding.’ (I assume the spooks included that moment for a private laugh.)

What was new to me was a clarification. I’d always wondered about the percentage of moles to useful idiots (in this case the term fits), assuming that most of the ‘names’ were of the former. I still see it that way but was nevertheless surprised at how many idiots the movement has corralled.

Since I’m in no mood to do a formal analysis of the film I’ll just point out three other significant moments, two of which are disheartening (which is why I’m not in the mood, etc..). Near the end, at the ‘conference’ we see a kid of about 12 asking Sargent a question after his keynote speech. He’s a FEer and his parents (talk about useful idiots!) had brought him. Bad enough but soon thereafter Sargent read a note from a ‘grandparent’ bragging that the family is now ‘three generations of flat earthers.’

Hence the film, its wide release, and its success at film festivals; they want more. (Apparently, Patrolling Sandy Hook didn’t do as well, as it’s currently very difficult to find on the web.)

Keep in mind that the FE movement’s main agenda – aside from discrediting NASA hoax exposers (like me) — is as grist for the A.I. mill. They of course want to know to what extent they can get Americans to believe whatever utter horse shit they tell them to believe but it’s more than that. Their algorithm(s) want to know how exactly to turn people into morons, and, just as importantly, who demographically can be turned. So it keeps a close eye on who watches what (plus google searches) and what they do afterwards.

Now, back to Sam Harris…

I came across this image of Sean Carroll at a presentation about ‘The Big Picture’ and for a beat put myself in the audience yelling out a question as he shows the famous ‘Pale Blue Dot’ photo. (Supposedly inspired by Carl Sagan who had NASA turn the Voyager space probe around to do an earth ‘selfie’): ‘Hey, Sean, where are the stars?’ I cannot imagine his answer, given that the earth’s luminosity at that distance (a billion miles) would have made it the faintest speck in the sky.

One last thing. Another impossible feat from Spacex: This time they landed all three boosters (three days ago). Here’s the proof! It just never stops, does it?
