Message:Bolshevik Revolution and Memorial Day

Channel: Diane

Chondra: Indeed.

JFK: Good morning Jim. 

Jim:  Good morning Jack and I bid you welcome once again in the love and light of mother father God.

JFK:  Thank you and thank you Jessica, LaTonya, and Charles for joining us again this morning.  I would like if at all possible to answer any questions that any of you have from our last meeting and then spend a little time if I may speaking about the real meaning of Memorial Day because I think it is important and I hope you will share with me in that belief.

Jim: Absolutely.

JFK: But I will begin by taking any questions that anyone has from our last meeting.

Jim: When we talked about the Bolshevik Revolution, I guess the early seeds of that Revolution took place prior to the First World War?

JFK: Yes.

Jim: Was part of the friction set up then between the city-states that actually catapulted Europe into WW1 with the assassination of Frederick?

JFK: The friction my friends that set this revolution in process was a multi-faceted chain of events. It is important to remember that very rarely does any conflict lead to such global involvement unless there are many pieces interconnecting that come together at a certain point.  The uprising preceding the Bolshevik Revolution was, as you say, largely begun with the city-states feeling oppressed by the leadership.  There was a dictatorial governmental authority in place and the people began to see that their freedoms were being largely restricted.  When it was determined to overthrow the present government which was seen as aristocratic and disconnected from the people, it was easy to inspire the working class people to up rise against what they saw as (there is a word I am looking for that I can’t quite find) but they saw their government as being safe within the walls of their palaces with all the wealth that was accumulated while they struggled to feed their families, worked under oppressive conditions, and little by little had their freedoms eroded. 

And I mention this specifically right now because if you look closely at what is happening within your own country, this wonderful nation of ours faces somewhat of a similar time.  The gap between the average American citizen and those that set policy for life in the country grows wider with each passing day.  I am exceptionally pleased (and Jim we have spoken of it before) that the scandals that have attached to the Bush presidency will far outweigh anything that this nation has seen before.  And it is beginning to surface now.  There has been betrayal of the American people at many levels in government-both in Washington and it State Capitals around the country.  Were this not to be coming to light at this time, I would foresee full revolution in this country within the next 10 years.  Because it is coming to light and because it is making people aware of how they have allowed themselves to create this situation, one can hope that they will choose more wisely each time they go to the polls to case a vote.  We can hope that one will choose to become informed on more than just the issues that directly impact the bottom line of their own lines.  Only in this method can we regain control of the American dream-for the dream is still a valid dream.  This nation can serve as a beacon for freedom and independence, for help to all, yet it will not happen until change becomes apparent in the eyes of the world.  Again, Jim my apologies for digressing from your original question.  I hope I answered it for you.

Jim: Yes, and I understand what you are saying because even in today’s paper there are talks about the Bush administration with the Vice President…Never in the history of America has the Vice President been so involved in the legislative bills and scrutinizing them and Bush I can’t remember the words they used…it is that he is overriding his privilege and his right to shut down.  He has vetoed more bills than all of the other previous administrations combined.  He is controlling things at an astronomical level.

JFK:  I would venture to say Jim and it pains me to say that behind the walls in the small dark rooms in Washington there is no longer democracy in this country.  The American people are spoon-fed just enough to believe what they want to believe and that is that their government is looking out for them.  This is not the case my friends and it does pain me to say this.  For even though during my administration there were problems obviously, at great magnitude that impacted this country, the American people I believe, whether they chose to agree or disagree, understood that they had a voice.  Today that voice is quiet.  The American people knew that when they went to bed at night and arose in the morning they had leaders who desired more than anything to protect life, liberty, and the pursuit of the American dream within this country.  Who among you can say today that you have that feeling?

The only ones whose interests are served by the present policies of Washington are those who are among the elite and it is the same elitist philosophy that was the downfall in Russia in WW1.  It is the same elitist philosophy that has toppled governments throughout history.  It is the same elitist philosophy that allowed Saddam Hussein to exert the power upon the people of Iraq that lead to many being imprisoned or killed through biological warfare through the confines of their own country.  Do I agree that this leader should have been removed from power?  Unquestionably.  Do I believe it was the responsibility of this nation to do so?  Absolutely not. 

While I have never been in favor of isolationist politics in world affairs, I resent somewhat for your sakes this belief that the United States has the right to control the choices of any other nation.  While indeed the United Nations has become a bit outmoded, the purpose of the United Nations has never been more important and while restructuring may be a necessary event, no nation should take action upon any other without the support of the others in the United Nations.  And of course as you know, the United Nations stood firmly against the policies of this country in Iraq. 

Jim:  I am going to be curious to see the ties between Enron and the higher officials of the Bush administration and the latest scandal.

JFK:  And the next house of cards to fall my friends will be Halliburton.  It is only now coming to light exactly how involved this administration and this unlikely pair of Bush and Cheney have been in building Halliburton as a tool to push forward their own agenda.  I apologize for digressing so far.  Unfortunately, having limited opportunities to those who are willing to carry on a dialogue with me in this way, I sometimes save up a lot and just kind of pour it out when I get the opportunity to talk to you. 

Jim:  A question that was asked of me at a party I was at was whether you speak through any one else at this point in time.

JFK:  I do not Jim.  Not that I wouldn’t be willing.  Yet I believe that I do the greatest service in the work that I try to do with you by staying more closely connected with your group.  It is in doing this that I am able to address the issues that impact your lives.  I have on rare occasion spoken through others since our journey together began and I realized the opportunity to do so, however the places that I have tried to do this have been in places around the world where language became a barrier.  And so my friends for the time being anyway, I am very content for these opportunities.

Jim:  And I welcome them also.  We can go on to more ideas but I know that next week I want to discuss with you factors that I think are going to be entering the picture during this same timeframe (1912, 1914) and that is the Bohemian Club.

JFK: I knew that was coming Jim. 

Jim:  It is something that is interesting that every Republican President in the United States from William Taft on has been a member of this elitist group.

JFK:  Most of your leaders, be they Republican or Democratic, have been involved in one way or another.

LaTonya:  Something for the future to discuss in that area also I have many questions and I think a lot of upset and anger that is building up within me as I go through the “Biggest Secret” and start learning all the different commissions and the Bohemian club and all that as to I don’t know why various presidents, maybe including yourself, if you knew this type of stuff was going on didn’t inform the public of it.  And so it is a conversation for another day…but I have my ideas about Bill Clinton and if all of these things are true, that he was involved in it leaves with me with no support or credence for any politician.

JFK:  And it is a discussion for another day but LaTonya let me make just one comment to you.  That you can keep in the back of your mind with this course of study.  You must often know intimately the minds that you desire to change before you can change them.  One does not launch an attack with sufficient intelligence to know where the attack will do the most good. So hold that thought in your studies for it is important. 

LaTonya: I will thank you.

JFK:  I also would like to comment that this kind lady who is thoughtful enough to offer herself to this process has grown quite frustrated for she wants very much to read that book and has deliberately held herself back from doing so.  She takes this work very seriously and desires more than anything to make sure that no one can ever say that anything she has is doing has influenced the information that I have shared with you.  So I hope you will all thank her for she has sacrificed much for the integrity of this work.

Jim: Which book do you refer to?

JFK:  The one that you have just recently finished my friend.

Jim: The one regarding secret societies? 

JFK: Yes.  And because so much of that has shaped politics and history of this country, she has deliberately avoided doing so and for example she has stayed away from in-depth reading of the news and she has stayed away from many things that she used to do quite regularly.  Assure her that she can still do these things.  I am strong enough that I won’t let anyone influence my ways of thinking.  But she is concerned and I think it is an important thing for you to all understand.  That she is very committed to the integrity and it is not an issue that she needs to be concerned about for again, it takes an awful lot to change my mind on anything and she would have no ability to allow her thoughts to impact this process. But her questions might well assist in formulating that which we need to move forward. 

Jim: Okay.

JFK:  My friends as we sit here on the eve of Memorial Day, I wish to share briefly my thoughts of the importance of what this day signifies.  This nation was built on the desire for freedom and equality.  From the earliest days of the colonies men and women have made great efforts and great sacrifices to promote a way of life that stood apart from the oppression that has been seen around the world.  Many have struggled to build a life for each American citizen that is based in freedom from that oppression.  It is based in freedom to worship as you choose.  Freedom to move among all forms of employment, all forms of education, all forms of housing no matter what the color of your skin or where you were born.  This was the dream of the United States of America.  From the time of WW1, this nation has sent it’s youngest, and strongest, and finest to protect these ideals both here and abroad--often with lives lost and families torn apart.  In this day of instant communication and instant gratification, in this day of focusing on one’s own independent wants and needs, my friends and Americans, do not forget for a moment the importance of this day.  For if you fail to honor those who have sacrificed so much for all of you, you will fail to understand what it means to be a true American.  Even in these times where you see your leadership going in ways to crush the American dream, if you will remember those who have struggled so hard to protect this nation, if you will come together in honor and remembrance, the seeds of strength will put down deeper roots.  Only when the American people remember their past and those that have made the supreme sacrifice will there be a time of strength again the fabric of this nation.  This Memorial Day, more than any other in the past, find the things that make you proud to be an American citizen.  Find the time to say a pray, to speak kindly of those who have lost their lives to protect your freedoms.  Do not make the focus of this day, merely that of barbeques and swimming, celebrating.  Make it about tribute to what it is that has made this nation strong-for only when you remember that my friends will you find a way to rebuild the strength of this nation.  Thank you my friends.

Jim: Thank you.

JFK: And I think I will let those by my parting words for the day. 

Jim:  I thank you for that.  This has become a holiday to some no different from Easter or Christmas depending on their religious belief-it is just a holiday. 

JFK:  It’s true my friends.

Jim: And wherever you go Jack, I know the blessings of mother father God journey with you. 

JFK: And I know that my heart joins with your today.  Be proud.  Be American.  Show the world what freedom is. 

Jim: Thank you.
