Dear friends:
From Charles E. Carlson,
Advisors and Volunteers
Tomorrow we will know if, by reelecting George W. Bush, the American people have mandated more war, which he will promptly give us, or whether, by electing John Kerry, they accepted a weak compromise and hoped for the best. War is the issue. A growing few are wondering if we can afford the financial cost of serial wars, and this perceptive, thus far silent, few could shift the balance. If so, what will Kerry, the politician with the billionaire wife, do?
Today I do not know yet who has won, so this is a good time for Strait Gate Ministry and its progenitor, We Hold These Truths, to thank you for your confidence and help in our mission over the last four years. You have helped us in many ways, some with labor, more with money, and many who have subscribed to our Pharisee Watch letter, which encourages us to hope you’ve been passing our words along to others. We also thank you for your generous letters of advice and encouragement; we read them all and try to answer.
Some who will receive this note are foes who wisely want to keep track of us and who are embedded in our e-mail mailing list. We thank you, too, for you help keep us stay on course by showing us when we are on target.
We have made no secret of wanting George Bush out of office, and we now wait like the rest of you to see if what we tried to help accomplish by telling truths about his actions succeeded. As we have made clear, we don’t respect Kerry’s positions, either, including his pro-choice position that denies millions of unborn children the right to life, a cause that we champion.
We have said, don’t reelect Bush, who is pro-life in order to keep the Christian evangelical vote, but who fails to measure up as a pro-life man. A man who causes war and bloodshed is not pro-life. G.W. Bush is the man who was selected by the Warmakers of our world four years ago to carry out their mandate. He is remorseless in his willingness to ignore the victims of his wars. This is why he must go. If he is reelected, we will issue a paper describing what we can look for in the next four years. There may be some surprises, but the prospect for more bloodshed is a certainty. God willing, we will have more help in exposing it to those who need to know it but have refused to look.
If, on the other hand, John Kerry is elected, we will immediately start pressuring him to stand by the mandate he’s been given to make peace. There will be no other way to interpret his victory. We know it will require tremendous pressure to keep Kerry from following Bush’s example.
Four years ago we called George W. Bush the “Lesser of Two Evils‿ in a pre-election message very much like this one. We did not see him as more able or righteous than Gore-Lieberman, but the voters somehow did. Harken to our terribly prophetic words:
The Lesser of Two Evils…is still evil (October 2, 2000)
The term “Lesser of Two Evils” has been used to describe George Bush Jr. by many of those who consider themselves Christ following, pro-American, Pro-Life patriots.
To say George W. Bush had an undistinguished youth is an understatement. The upcoming Bush Administration is likely to be the most controlled and manipulated administration ever. Bush himself is a competitor for Most Incompetent Man to Ever Achieve the Presidency. His is also likely to be a planned one-term president for reasons to be discussed in future editions. What is vital to discuss is to whom he owes his allegiance. Unfortunately Bush’s geopolitical incompetence has nothing to do with his capacity to do evil to our country, for the more vacant and underachieving the President, the more manipulated he is in the hands of his advisors, and the more dangerous to us.
There is nothing incompetent or undecided about Bush’s advisors. Powerful and ambitious men, most of whom shaped his fathers Gulf War-making administration, already surround Baby Bush. And unfortunately there is absolutely nothing in George W. Bush’s character that suggests he will resist or even understand the nature of the evil he will be asked to bring down upon those who they envy and hate.
Those advisors include former Assistant Secretary of Defense Richard Armitage; former National Security advisor Robert Blackwill; former Assistant Secretary of Defense Stephen Hadley; former Assistant Secretary of Defense Richard Perle; former Secretary of State George Shultz, former Undersecretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz; former Undersecretary of Defense Dov Zakheim; and former Undersecretary of State Robert Zoellick. Condoleezza Rice is added as a cover girl to the list, no doubt to pretty up the ugly image of impending Warmakers foreign policy that is so clear from these men’s histories.
As long as there is a Middle Eastern conflict in which Americans pay for the subjugation of the Palestinians, we will be drawn into other wars to destroy the Arabs, as in Iraq. We taxpayers are the hired gun in Israel’s War on Islam. Baby Bush stands to be used as a warmaking tool perhaps more brutally than Mr. Clinton was. The “Lesser of Two Evils” is still evil.
The Bush cabinet will no doubt be made up of unrepentant killers who were his fathers advisors.- end quote
Need I go any further in quoting myself? We have our work cut out for us; I will give you only one reason why:
A national conference of the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) just a week before the election in Hollywood, Florida, reveals the stark reality of the American situation. There, Republican National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice and former Ambassador to the United Nations William Holbrooke, who was on Bill Clinton’s five-man hit team that carried out the destruction of Syria, both delivered key speeches. Ms. Rice was the keynoter and pronounced again President Bush’s unlimited commitment and devotion to Israel, as expected. The surprise was that Holbrooke, Bush’s appointee to the UN, was obviously there to tell AIPAC that they could trust Kerry to love and nurture Israel every bit as much as Bush! He as much as proclaimed himself Kerry’s agent in emphasizing to those present that Kerry (1) did not regret his vote to bomb Iraq, (2) favored “regime change” and considered Iraq a natural threat to Israel, and (3) would not pull out of Iraq if elected. Holbrooke pleaded his Jewish ness to what sounded from the comments like a committed Bush audience. Holbrooke stopped short of saying he was carrying Kerry’s proxies to AIPAC in an attempt to schmooze for Jewish votes.
If Kerry is elected, our first effort should be to demand that he not appoint Richard Holbrooke to a cabinet post!
Here are a few dramatic, whining words from AIPACs President and Executive Director, Howard Kohr, as he prepares for battle against Bill Moyer of PBS who has dared to take notice of Israel’s unholy alliance with the “Christian Right”:
During the last several days it has become clear that not only is AIPAC under attack‿the U.S.-Israel relationship itself is also under assault. Several media outlets, including ABCТs Nightline, have portrayed the U.S.-Israel alliance as a series of alleged espionage events rather than the kind of special relationship that has been reaffirmed by every President and every Democratic and Republican platform since 1948. This signals that we at AIPAC have work to do‿
Though Moyer’s is not mentioned in this statement, it is clear to us from watching Bill Moyer’s УNOWФ that this is what Kohr is worried about. We know Judaized ChristiansТ strange alliance with Israel is the Achilles’ heel that Moyer’s has not only noticed but has dared to speak of time and time again. AIPAC knows it and has sounded the battle horn against Moyer’s and any others who dare notice this unholy god ship of Israel over the Judaized church.
Strait Gate Ministries is a frontrunner, because the exposure and defeat of this strange alliance is a primary mission for us, and we will not let go of it.
But there is more reason to bring up AIPAC here. Our purpose is to convince some forty million “Christians‿ in as many as 40,000 Judaized Christian churches across America that they should be followers of Christ and not follower of Arial Sharon. When even a small percentage of these Christians have removed Israel as their god, our country will stop being an international bully and regain at least a part of its greatness. We may even recover a part of our prosperity, the loss of which will surely hasten the recovery of our senses.
We Hold These Truth’s leaders have, almost to a man, become more spiritually oriented in the last four years. A specious “Christian‿, George W. Bush, has done that favor for a lot of people. We started Project Strait Gate to challenge churches that support war at any cost because Israel wills it churches like the ones the Bush family and many of our readers attend.
We have carried our pickets at well over 50 major churches and religious conventions, mostly in the West. In the coming years we plan to expand this effort. One of our new units has held more than a dozen such silent vigils in central California churches, thanks largely to the commitment of two families in Fresno, CA. According to pastors, these vigils produce results far beyond our expectations. No matter who is president, we want to see this movement expanded all over the US in the next four years.
We plan to increase our efforts on the Internet, the best of technology and the worst of technology of all time. Most people have no idea there is a ruthless and vicious struggle going on for control. A powerful few are well on the way to bringing the Internet under electronic surveillance and censorship that will destroy free speech as never before. These moguls, who already control the major media, would prevent the amazing spread of facts on the Internet, something that would once have seemed impossible, but that today allows nothing to be hidden for long.
Because WHTT uses aggressive, though legal and honorable, tactics to gain new readers, we have been targeted and attacked several times in the last four years. In one or two cases our survival was in doubt because so basic is the Internet to our mission that without it our only hope would be that God, in his time, would fix the problem in some inexplicable way.
We think God is fixing the broken world and has allowed us to be a tool for exposing the unrighteous thinking of Judaized Christians, by way of the amazing Internet in spite of its vulnerability to pressure groups like AIPAC. Through this new channel, people like us can finally be heard. Many of us believe that following Good’s will requires not only logic and understanding but sacrifice, sweat and blood. We believe God will allow us to use the Internet to bring understanding and peace to this world, if we can keep it free.
In the last six months leading up to today’s election we have accelerated our experiment with Internet broadcasting on a selective basis. Last night we sent about 45,000 messages, mostly to religious leaders in the state of Florida, reminding them what their choice is. These addresses were collected for us entirely by volunteers with computer programs concentrating on Floridians. Within four years we expect to do this for every state in the USA.
We also collected a general list of about 350,000 religious leaders, educational leaders and students nationwide to whom we sent several such broadcasts in the last six months. Finally, we experimented with a list of some 480,000 students and teachers around the world. This was accomplished with the help of a small number of visionaries who funded this effort and believe, as we do, that where there is a will, there a method shall be found and a way for it to prevail. This is the start, but we must have major commitments to sustain it.
As most readers know, our basic understanding is that Judaized Christianity is an un-Christ-like blending of Judaism and Christianity that is bent on supporting the war agenda and opportunistic aims of the worldwide backers of the State of Israel. In order to free the world from the agony of a racist, falsely conceived and totally unnecessary so-called “War on Terrorism.” We must help 40 million American Judaized Christians understand how their true faith has been stolen from them.
The recovery of Christianity from false gods is our aim. We are a primary research resource on this subject; we have written and spoken on it widely and been attacked for doing so. In the near future it will be possible to see and hear our speeches and research on our Internet website.
So we again thank you, and regardless of the outcome today, we, activists in both parties, will be back tomorrow morning, ready to continue our mission, because our leader is the One who does not languish over victory, rest, or bemoan pain and setbacks. Please do not stop to rest, but work with us, regardless of today’s outcome. Time is of the essence. Do not waste it.
Toward the Strait Gate
