"Got a tan. Caught up on doom."

Project Camelot (Whistleblower Radio) on Argusoog Radio feed — 23 Jul 2010
If you want to hear about disastrous scenarios and deep conspiracies, it's all here:  intentionality in the Gulf oil disaster, which will shut down the loop and North Atlantic currents, which will cause a new ice age in northern Europe;  global war, planetary chaos, and forced population reduction;  pole shifts, Planet X (The Dark Twin), and star gates;  the battle for scenarios in the conscious co-creation of reality.  A fantastic (literally) and fascinating ride, if you can stand the curves and whooshes.

GP Comments:
      It's easy to dismiss this interview as idle doom-spinning. But Deagle seems surprisingly credible and compelling, especially when he offers an opinion that JFK was assassinated because he took on the Federal Reserve (banksters) and the CIA. (Exactly right, in our estimation.)
      Another of Deagle's interesting points is that TPTB are NOT going to shut down the internet (as many doomsters fear) because TPTB see the net as an essential part of the distracting circus that keeps most people's minds focused on trivialities and off of their inner selves and their true nature—that is, the ability to co-create the matrix reality in which TPTB now dominate.
