“The Only Thing Necessary for the Triumph of Evil is that Good Men Do Nothing”
Edmund Burke
Our Congress has an all-time low 9% approval rating, and Obama’s
overall popularity is in the toilet. It has been 12 years since I
declared war upon the central bankers when they tried to steal my
property and that of 300 of my neighbors without one dime being paid in
compensation. In that time, I have watched and written about how 13
million homes have been illegally stolen by the MERS mortgage fraud. In
Congressional hearings, we have all seen how the IRS harasses and
intimidates thousands of enemies of Obama (i.e. the Tea Party) as well
as AP reporters who do not report the news in a manner pleasing to the
President. The American people have permitted the passage of the NDAA
which allows government the right to secretly arrest people without due
process of law and hold them indefinitely. We barely notice as Obama
declared himself to be “King” as he passed Executive Order 13603 in
which he can take everything you own as well as your freedom at the mere
whim of this President. In today’s militarized society, people have an 8
times greater chance of mistakenly being killed by their local police
than being killed by a terrorist and on ans on it goes as nobody does
anything about it.Even Most of the Awake Act Like Sheep
I have watched millions of our fellow countrymen show evidence that they are in various stages of waking up to the bankster inspired tyranny that is attacking every facet of our lives. The Independent Media has done a marvelous job of reaching the masses despite being ridiculed and shut out of the mainstream media. The Independent Media is being so effective that Congress has attempted, on several occasions, to declare us to “not be journalists” (e.g. courtesy of Dianne Feinstein and John McCain) in several bills that have narrowly failed in Congress.
It is my considered opinion that we have awakened enough people who are collectively capable of making substantial and fundamental differences. This begs the obvious question, then why don’t we see a massive uprising against the central bankers and their institutions of control? There is no simple answer which will explain all the fence-sitting we are witnessing in the country today. However, there is one social-psychological factor which explains why the majority of the people who are awake to the present level of tyranny are not sufficiently motivated to act and that factor is called bystander apathy.
Bystander Apathy
The term bystander apathy (i.e. fence sitting) refers to the phenomenon in which the greater the number of people present, the less likely people are to help a person in distress. When an emergency situation occurs, observers are more likely to take action if there are few or no other witnesses.
The most frequently cited example of the bystander effect in introductory psychology textbooks is the brutal murder of a young woman named Catherine “Kitty” Genovese. On Friday, March 13, 1964, the 28-year-old Genovese was returning home from work. While Genvovese approached her apartment entrance, she was attacked and repeatedly stabbed by a man later identified as Winston Moseley.
Despite Genovese’s repeated calls for help, none of the dozen people in the nearby apartment building who heard her cries called the police. The attack first began at 3:20 AM, but it was not until 3:50 AM that someone first contacted police. Genovese’s death was preventable and the failure of her neighbors to report the crime in progress, brought the social-psychology term, bystander apathy, into the national discussion about people’s unwillingness to act in an emergency situation.
There are two major factors that contribute to bystander apathy. First, the presence of other people creates a diffusion of responsibility. Because there are other observers, individuals do not feel as much pressure to take action, since the responsibility to take action is thought to be shared among all of those present. Generally speaking, the greater the number of people which are present in an emergency, the less likely people are to take action.
The implication of Bystander Apathy would strongly suggest that the more people that are awakened by the Independent Media, the less likely individuals are going to act in defense of life of and liberty against the encroaching bankster tyranny.
The second reason that people refuse to get involved is due to the the need to behave in correct and socially acceptable ways. When other observers fail to react, individuals often take this as a signal that a response is not needed or not appropriate. Other researchers have found that onlookers are less likely to intervene if the situation is ambiguous. In the case of Genovese, most of the 38 witnesses reported that they believed that they were witnessing a “lover’s quarrel,” and did not realize that the young woman was actually being murdered. That is like saying the Nazis were only taking the Jews for a weekend holiday and it was all for their own good.
Bystander Apathy Is Synonymous With National Suicide
I spoke on the phone with researcher,
Deborah Tavares a few nights ago and she informed me that people are
already being disappeared off the street, presumably under the NDAA.
People are being incarcerated and forcibly medicated against their will.
Yet, beyond a few people such as Deborah Tavares,
nobody is saying anything about this phenomenon. Deborah will be my
guest on my radio show on March 1, 2015 from 9-11pm Central.
One year ago today on February 22, 2014, I revealed the existence of a classified Army document which has been leaked online, entitled FM 3-39.40 Internment and Resettlement Operations (PDF).
The document was originally to be kept secret, but everyone in the
military command structure, as far as we know, is not on board with the
encroaching tyranny sweeping across this country. Yet, one year later,
nobody has done anything about this threat to American civil liberties.
Straight from the Internment/Resettlement article (12 February 2010 FM 3-39.40 1-5) it states the following:“…I/R operations may place Soldiers in continuous contact with or near insurgents, terrorists, or criminals who will exploit every opportunity to escape and kill or injure U.S. personnel or multinational partners“.
Speaking of our “Multinational
partners”, there are Russian troops training on our soil, along with
other UN “Peacekeeping” troops. The above excerpt and the following
paragraphs will make it clear regarding the INTENT to use “multinational
partners” to round up and detain American citizens.
Russian troops allowed into the previously conducted Grid EX II simulated EMP attack drill? Russian troops have also been used to police major events on American soil. This is martial law desensitization training in which the Russians are trained to interact with American citizens. Also, FEMA signed a bilateral agreement with the Russian military to permit a minimum of 15,000 Russian soldiers to train on American soil and this was at a time when both Russia and China threatened to nuke the United States if we dared to invade Syria or Iran in the Fall of 2013.
The following is a quote from the Russian Emergency Situations Ministry:
“The Russian Emergency Situations Ministry and the USA Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) are going to exchange experts during joint rescue operations in major disasters. This is provided by a protocol of the fourth meeting of the U.S.-Russia Bilateral Presidential Commission Working Group on Emergency Situations and seventeenth meeting of Joint U.S.-Russia Cooperation Committee on Emergency Situations, which took place in Washington on 25 June 2013.Russian defectors have long warned the United States about a multi-generational plot to conquer the United States from within. We know that former communist inspired Weathermen Underground leader, Bill Ayers, launched Obama’s political career from his Chicago home. Domestic terrorist, Bill Ayers, still visits the White House.
The document provides for expert cooperation in disaster response operations and to study the latest practices. In addition, the parties approved of U.S.-Russian cooperation in this field in 2013-2014, which envisages exchange of experience including in monitoring and forecasting emergency situations, training of rescuers, development of mine-rescuing and provision of security at mass events.”
Despite the public availability to this frightening information, the American sheep and even those that are awake are not even discussing these event, much less doing anything about it.
Conclusion

Niemöller, a prominent Protestant pastor who opposed the Nazi regime.
He spent the last seven years of Nazi rule in concentration camps.
Germany, 1937.
When I grew up learning about the Holocaust and read Martin Niemöller’s quote, I never realized that I would someday be living the essence of his quote in modern day America.
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
When you have one of the 2700 newly acquired DHS armored personnel carriers parked outside your home at 3AM, who is going to speak for you?
