We as spiritual beings or souls come to earth in order to experience the human condition. This includes the good and the bad scenarios of this world. Our world is a duality planet and no amount of love or grace will eliminate evil or nastiness. We will return again and again until we have pierced the illusions of this density. The purpose of human life is to awaken to universal truth. This also means that we must awaken to the lies and deceit mankind is subjected to. To pierce the third density illusion is a must in order to remove ourselves from the wheel of human existences. Love is important but knowledge is the key!

The mind-numbing hypocricy of it All!

Read the NY Times report below through the lens of history.

Bush's grandfather Prescott Bush and
Prescott's father-in-law, George Herbert Walker, were bankers for Hitler.
The American men who died on D-Day faced a powerful German army built up by
the Bush families decade of financial support and fund-raising for Nazi
fronts which included banks, steel manufacturers and shipping companies.
From their Nazi-profits the Bush family financed the political career of
George Bush I. Today US troops face Al Queda, a group originally funded and
trained by the Reagan-Bush administration and CIA director William Casey,
founder of the Manhattan Institute, where GW Bush gets all of his ideas and
most of his advisors. Al Queda is led by bin Laden, a business associate of
numerous members of the contemporary Bush family. From all appearances, the
9/11 attack was allowed to be carried out by the GW Bush administration.
Soon US troops (200,000 of them)  will face a second war in Iraq, facing
Saddamn Hussein. Saddamn has chemical and biological weapons supplied by the
Reagan-Bush administration which he will undoubtably try to use against our
soldiers. At what point will GW Bush be asked to explain whether he is with
us or against us? For proof of these statements see

Bush Speaks of Heroism and Sacrifice at Cemetery in Normandy
By JILL ABRAMSON


OLLEVILLE-SUR-MER, France, May 27 - President Bush marked the first Memorial
Day since the Sept. 11 attacks and the war in Afghanistan with a somber
speech at the seaside cemetery above Omaha Beach, where neat rows of white
marble markers recall what Mr. Bush called "the scale and heroism and
sacrifice of the young" who gave their lives here during World War II.

"Our wars have won for us every hour we live in freedom," the president said
today, delivering remarks that were a paean to the men who came ashore that
bloody day and began freeing Europe from the Nazis.

"Our wars have taken from us the men and women we honor today and every hour
of the lifetimes they had hoped to live," he said. "Here, where we stand
today, the New World came back to liberate the Old."

The crowd that gathered under black clouds and a soft rain at the American
Cemetery in Normandy included a smattering of men who fought in the D-Day
invasion, on June 6, 1944.

"The day will come when no one is left who knew them," Mr. Bush noted sadly
of those who are buried here, as small American and French flags fluttered
in front of 9,386 white markers that represent the lives lost among those
who fought their way up the steep promontory.

"The day will never come when America forgets them," he said. "And our
nation and the world will always remember what they did here, and what they
gave here for the future of humanity."

Although the September terrorist attacks drew some people to the ceremony,
the president made only brief references to the attacks in his speech and
made no mention of the victims. He did note the more recent grief of
Americans and their allies "with losses we have suffered in Afghanistan."

Mr. Bush's challenge on the Normandy coast was to place his campaign against
terrorism within D-Day's historic sweep, without drawing the parallel too
ostentatiously.

He linked the conflicts more overtly at an earlier stop at a church in
Ste.-Mère-Église, now stained dark with age, that was the scene of the first
Allied battle that liberated a French village after D-Day.

"It is fitting that we remember those who sacrificed," he said, "because
today we defend our freedoms. We defend our freedoms against people who
can't stand freedom."

Accompanied to the American Cemetery at Normandy by President Jacques Chirac
of France, Mr. Bush's wife, Laura, and Mr. Chirac's wife, Bernadette, he
noted that the end of World War II had turned "enemies into friends" and
said American and European security were still bound, ever stronger now,
because of the mission of "defending the world from terrorists at this very
hour."

It is possible that the president did not focus on Sept. 11 in his speech
because Memorial Day is an occasion to remember the nation's war dead and
because the victims who died in the terrorist attacks on the World Trade
Center and the Pentagon were largely civilians.

In Berlin last week, Mr. Bush tried energetically to rally German lawmakers
against "an aggressive force that glorifies death, that forgets innocents."
But here the president's message was more understated.

At a church service at Ste.-Mère-Église, Mr. Chirac also compared World War
II to the campaign against terrorism.

"Again, today, our two countries are fighting together," he said. But in
what appeared to be his second effort in two days to remind his guest that
more than military action would be required, he said that "our enemies
include poverty" and "the serious harm being done to the ecological heritage
of our planet."

The wet, gray weather fit the elegiac tone of Mr. Bush's speech at the
cemetery, where the American and French flags flew at half-staff until the
conclusion of the ceremony.

The most stirring moment of the ceremony came after a 21-gun salute, when
military jets flew, in missing-man formation, over the burial site, with a
lone plane peeling off to fly straight up through the clouds.

On this overseas tour, the president has visited some of the most poignant
and powerful landscapes of World War II.

On Saturday he accompanied President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia to the
cemetery in St. Petersburg, formerly Leningrad, where almost half a million
residents, many of whom died of starvation during the 900-day Nazi siege,
are buried in mass graves.

President Bush apparently chose not to try to reach the soaring heights of
the famous "Boys of Pointe-du-Hoc" speech given by President Reagan on the
40th anniversary of D-Day or the soaring "We are the children of your
sacrifice" speech given at the 50th anniversary by the first president born
after World War II, Bill Clinton.

Michael Deaver, the former image wizard for President Reagan, said in an
interview last week, "Reagan's whole point at Normandy was the celebration
and recognition of those who had fought and gave us the freedom we had.

"For Bush, being there is different. We have young men and women who died on
Sept. 11 who are every bit as much heroes as the boys of Pointe-du-Hoc, so
it is very meaningful for him. Bush knows it is in his hands to send men and
women into this new war."

Michael Waldman, a former Clinton speechwriter, observed last week: "The
beach at Normandy for Americans is a sacred spot, and when a president goes
there it is a chance to lay out first principles."

Isaac Phillips, 77, an Army veteran attending today's observances, said he
landed at Utah Beach on D-Day. He said today that the heartbreak of the war
was with him constantly. "When you are eating or sleeping, it is always
there," he said.

Mr. Phillips was wounded after D-Day and won a Purple Heart, married and
moved to Europe. He said he thought President Bush was "in a very difficult
period" because of the Sept. 11 attacks.

Wearing her blue Junior R.O.T.C. uniform, Krystle Vasquez, 16, an American
high school student in Bitburg, Germany, who attended the ceremony today,
said she thought it was especially important this year to mark Memorial Day
because of the terrorist attacks. "You realize the cost these people paid,"
she said, "and it could come again now at any moment."
