The dark new world order evil cabal are seeking absolute control over the human race via wireless brain-weapon technology and many other means. In order the achieve their aims they have been wirelessly experimenting on a large selection of non-consenting human beings throughout most parts of the world. These human beings are commonly known as targeted individuals and I have been one for sixteen years.
I am wirelessly linked from my brain and body via a two way stream of low frequency electromagnetic energy to a computer network. All of the electrical signals generated by my brain and body are uploaded on a constant basis to the computers of the neuro operatives where is is data analysed and collated for later use. The unknown neuro operatives can read my inner dialogue and reply to it in real time. The neuro operatives send me voice signals, moving images, mild pain signals, bodily sensations, emotions, feelings and odours through the neuro link which has permanently attached me to their computer network for the past sixteen years. These neuro operatives have built a three dimensional image of my body by targeting me with energy in order to see where the energy met resistance and by doing so were enabled to build this three dimensional body image. Because of this I now have no physical privacy and no mental privacy whatsoever. I keep an almost daily online blog detailing some of what the neuro operatives say to me. I hear their voices coming from inside my head. Here is some of what they have said to me in the past few days, just to give you an example of some of what I experience :-
“We don’t send pain signals at the moment but we hurt financially. It is standard procedure.” ( I disagree with that statement because they sometimes send me mild pain signals).
“Medical surveillance and psychiatric surveillance are purported to come on stream in the future.”
“We are planning at some time in the future to time all targeted individuals while you are having your showers and cleaning your clothes, so that we can curtail the amount of hot water you are allowed to use on a daily basis. My name is Keith Arganine and I am a London based Directed Energy Weapons specialist.”
“She is a bit of a cow.”
“It is not a system that we would care to continue using in this world.”
“Fifty dollars per week is all she should be granted to live.” (I live in Ireland, Europe and some of the voices I hear come from London and others come from the United States. Some of the United States neuro staff wrongly assume that I am an American citizen and they use American terms when the refer to me. This has been occurring continually for sixteen years.
“Kid gloves until now, but of course we are going to kick it up a bit.”
“Are we planning to wirelessly enslave Gretta Fahey.” ” Why else do you think we are doing all this. Of course we are planning to wirelessly enslave her.”
“Agnosticism exists only if I say it exists and I don’t have a category for it so it does not exist.”
“Don’t register your child at birth and then you don’t need to ever worry about forced vaccinations. No one will ever bother your child throughout his life if he is not registered at birth.” (I am not expecting a child as I am too old. This was just general advice given to me by the unknown neuro operatives.)
“This is a system which allows us to look inside people’s bodies and see what is in there.”
“Stop smothering your bread with stodge.”
“Has she a licence to write this”

Humanity is being officially informed that the reason the skies over our heads are being sprayed with particulates is for the purposes of geo-engineering, which is understood to be for the further purpose of climate change adjustment.  Now we are being further officially informed that these particulates circulate in our food and water supply, leading to us inhaling and ingesting them. It is thought that these particulates then travel from our blood stream throughout our brains and bodies and they then form what is being called neural lace inside our brains.   The well known and popular industrialist Elon Musk has been highlighting the capabilities of neural lace throughout the online media in recent years.

I believe that when enough neural lace has become imbedded throughout our brains we can then be given virtually reality experiences without the need for virtual reality headsets. I further believe that this is the true explanation for the very recent phenomena of many individuals reporting a wide variety of never heard of before experiences such as  near death experiences, poltergeist experiences, demonic possession experiences, along with a wide variety of other experiences which are totally new to the human race. We as a human family need to discontinue our surveillance of the skies using SETI as there is no further need for this support platform.  There is no evidence of extra-terresterial life on earth and there never has been any evidence of it.  SETI scientists are abundantly aware of this.  We now know the real reason human beings have been experiencing what they erroneously once believed to be extra-terresterial encounters.  Please ask your representative to have SETI disassembled and banned as soon as possible. 

There are no demonic possessions.  There are no near death experiences.  There are no extra-terrestrial visitations.  Said experiences are all being driven by wireless neuro weapons.

When human beings are confused and afraid they become easy to control and manipulate. For that reason many hoaxes have been created to instill fear and confusion in the human race down through the centuries. Dark occultists who wish to gain control over the human race have also fabricated hoaxes in order to provice cover stories to cover the existence of advance secret technology and to engender passivity in the masses, and to make they themselves appear to have more power and capability than they actually have.

These hoaxes were created by dark occultists by the use of science and technology and many forms of trickery for example, the expedient use of magic lanterns, hollywood makeup, film sets, holograms and brain weapons combined with constant repitition in the media in order to engrain these hoaxes in the minds of humanity. In some instances they back date their hoaxes to make it appear that these occurrences were happening in the distant past. The CIA, by the use of brain warfare, are now using personal data profiles to create individualized religious experiences which they can download into the brain of an illegally implanted human being by wireless means. In addition to this, because human beings have been unknowingly inhaling and ingesting nano technology for many decades, the dark occultists can now use this nano technology which is inside our bodies and brains to make our muscles move and contort against our wills.

A selection of the hoaxes which have been created are as follows:-

The near death experience hoax, the religious apparation hoax, the demonic possession hoax, the poltergeist hoax, the past life regression hoax, the channelling hoax, the sixth sense hoax, the end times hoax, the saviour hoax, the rapture hoax, the extra-terresterial hoax, the space travel hoax, the existence of inter-dimensional beings hoax, the artificial intelligence has now become sentient hoax, the existence of satellites hoax, and the existence of space based weapons hoax, the earth is ball shaped hoax.

All world-wide information currently comes from undersea fibre optic cables. We can easily solve the attempt at wirelessly enslaveing many members of the human race who have been non-consensually wirelessly tethered to a super computer from illegally implanted microchips which have become encased inside their bodies and brains. We can do this simply by disabling and banning all microwave transmitters, 5G millimeter wave transmitters and long range wifi transmitters. We need to do this as a matter of urgency.

THIRTY REASONS WHICH PROVE A GEOCENTRIC UNIVERSE.

" No matter how big the lie, repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as the truth". Adolf Hitler.

There is a secret Breakaway civilization of people who wish to take over control of the earth and enslave the rest of us. They own the worldwide media and they dumb us down by lying to us about science, history, organised religion, archaeology, and many other subjects. Serious scientists who disagree with the so called establishment have no way of getting the word out to the public that they disagree with officialdum, as the mainstream media is heavily controlled. This secret shadow government have been pursuing their objective of worldwide control for hundreds of years, and have infiltrated all worldwide institutions. However, humanity is now waking up to the realization that our enemys have taken control of western governments and banks and is pursuing an agenda which is not in our best interest. We are fed a false reality and we live in a mental cage. There is a Space Travel Conspiracy. The purpose of NASA is to fake the concept of space travel to further America's militaristic dominance of space.The purpose of NASA's creation from the very start was to put ICBMs and other weapons into space (or at least appear to). The motto "Scientific exploration of new frontiers for all mankind" was nothing more than a front.

The mission of Nasa is to bury true science and truth itself. It has nearly succeeded in its mission. However, most people are at last beginning to wake up to the fact that we are being lied to on an unimaginable scale.

The following is a quote from president Lyndon Johnson:

"Control of space means control of the world. From space, the masters of infinity would have the power to control the earth's weather, to cause drought and flood, to change the tides and raise the levels of the sea, to divert the gulf stream and change temperate climates to frigid. There is something more important than the ultimate weapon. And that's the ultimate position. The position of total control over the Earth that lies somewhere in outer space." —President Lyndon Johnson, Statement on Status of Nation's Defense and Race for Space, January 7, 1958

One month later, Lyndon Johnson and the Senate Special Committee on Space and Astronautics drafted a resolution to change the name of the US Army's Ballistic Missile Arsenal to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, NASA. NASA's early rocket research is well documented to have been a complete failure, plagued by one disaster after another. At some point, perhaps after the Apollo 1 disaster, it was decided to fake the space program outright and use rockets which only needed to fly into the air until they disappeared from sight. NASA went from nearly every launch being a failure to a near flawless track record, able to land man on the moon multiple times without error, and with only two public spectacles of failure in 45 years. The earth is portrayed as round in NASA media. At the time of NASA's creation the general population already believed that the earth was round, based on the handed down teachings from Galleleo and Copernicus.

All bodies in the universe go around a centre of mass, which never moves. The fixed centre of mass has been proven to be the earth, by many different experiments performed in the 19th century.

In the Michaelson/Morley experiment in Cleveland in 1881 and again in 1887, scientists attempted to measure the motion of the earth, moving round the sun. To the astonishment of every scientist on the planet, they proved that the earth was stationary. However, scientists could not bring themselves to admit that the catholic church was right all along with regards to geocentrism, because the Copernicun revolution had elevated science to the top of the heirarchy of knowledge, above theology. So Einstein came up with an excuse as to why their experiment was wrong. He claimed that time was shrinking, and that was why it appeared the earth was not moving. The theory of relativity has been disproved by the Michaelson Morley experiment.

In order for the Big Bang Theory to hold true, everything in space has to be homogenous. Everything had to look the same. However, a probe called the WMAP was launched in 2001. The discovery was made that, in fact, everything is space was not homogenous. In the cosmic microwave background, scientists found, to their astonishment, that there were universe wide plains between the warmer and colder sections, aligned with one another. These defined an axis which directly aligned with the ecliptic and equinox of earth. This is in fact a universe wide arrow pointing at earth. This means that the theory of relativity does not exist. The Big Bang never happened.

We are told that the earth is spinning at one thousand miles per hour at the equator. Yet when we stand outside on a still day, not a single hair on our heads will move.

If two airplanes take off from the one airport, and travel in opposite directions around the world, if the earth is spinning, the plane travelling with the spin will have to travel a faster and longer distance than the plane going against the spin. However when the planes arrive back at the airport, both journeys take the exact same amount of time. Therefore, the earth is still.

People, using time lapse cameras, standing in different places all over the earth, and spinning at different speeds and different angles to the north star polaris, all produce the same type of unblurred image. Therefore the earth must be still.

The Hubble space telescope and all of the other space telescopes throughout the world have simulated realities built into them, using constructive solid geometry computer code, which constructs fake 3D worlds,.

Flight routes only work on a flat earth model. There are no direct flights in the Southern Hemisphere.

We are informed that Nasa has found galaxies which are 10 billon light years away from earth. One light year is one trillion miles. Ten billion light years is ten thousand million times a trillion. It is patently obviously nonsence, as there is no way to measure such a distance.

We are told that the sun is 1,300,000 times bigger than the earth. We are told that the sun is 109 times the curcumference of the earth. If that is the case, how come space is black, and how come we have shadows, when we walk around on a sunny day. If the earth is 150 million kilometers from the sun like we are expected to believe, how come the suns rays are slant and not straight down.

When the Atlantic ocean was surveyed in order to lay an atlantic telegraph cable, it was found to be flat for 1,665 miles, not curved. Perhaps the best example of flat earth proof is the Bedford Level Experiment. In short, this was an experiment preformed many times on a six-mile stretch of water that proved the surface of the water to be flat. It did not conform to the curvature of the earth that round earth proponents teach. Many other experiments demonstrating the lack of curvature in the earth may be found in ''Earth Not a Globe'', by Samuel Rowbotham.

An astronomer called Copernicus was heavy into the worship of the sun God. Because of that, he wished to elevate the status of the sun. He did the maths but it didnt work. Finally he came up with elipses, which solved alot of his mathematical problems, in his quest to make the sun the centre of the galaxy. Then the Church of England bought into his idea. They adopted it as the official church position. They then deleted their books of all other theories, including a geocentric universe. This belief stayed because scientists who taught this theory had been put on a pedestal, and they did not want to admit they were wrong and look foolish. The Elite wish to perpetuate this lie, because if they dont they will lose their power very quickly. (This point is attributed to a man whose email address is nofakereligion@gmail.com)

The six months of day and night in the Arctic circle can not happen on a round earth.

The North star is at the top of the globe, yet it can be seen below the equator.

Egyptians were doing astronomy long before us, and the stars told them the earth is flat. They built pyramids which we can not do. Who do you think is more qualified to know how the earth is?

Antarctica has never been crossed. Why? Because it does not exist. People who have circumnaviagated the earth have all travelled from east to west or from west to east - never from north to south. Planes are not allow to fly directly from South Africa to New Zealand, across the Antarctic. They have to go thousands of miles out of their way. If you go snooping around the Antarctic ice wall, you will be blown out of the water.

The Earth is in the form of a disk with the North Pole in the center and Antarctica as a wall around the edge. In this model, circumnavigation is performed by moving in a great circle around the North Pole. The earth is surrounded on all sides by an ice wall that holds the oceans back. This ice wall is what explorers have named Antarctica. Beyond the ice wall is a topic of great interest to believers in a Flat Earth . To our knowledge, no one has been very far past the ice wall and returned to tell of their journey. What we do know is that it encircles the earth and serves to hold in our oceans and helps protect us from whatever lies beyond.

The image of the globe is fake and so are the moon landings. Humans can not pass through the Van Allen belt without wearing four feet thick lead space suits, due to the high temperature.

Two of the pillars of 20th century physics, general relativity and the standard model of particle physics rely on some core assumptions about the nature of space and time. Therefore, gravity and relativity cannot be used as the principle components of all physics and science.

If the earth was curved, ships would sail downhill. The only reason we can be persuaded to believe the nonsense that Australians can somehow manage to walk on a surface that is upside down, yet appear to be upright, is because we have been led into a mental state of cognative dissidence. People are normally imprisoned in a mental health prison when they indulge in magical thinking. Yet we are expected to believe this fiction without question.

The paths that both the sun and the moon travel in the sky are straight. If the earth was a ball, the paths would be curved.

If the earth was a ball, you would not be able to see the moon's reflection in the sea, because it would be angled away from your perspective. Therefore the earth must be flat.

There is no adjusting for the earths curvature when laying telegraph poles, train tracks, roads, bridges, canals or cables. The river Nile is one thousand miles long, and drops less than one foot.

The sun in the sky always travels in a southern arc, never in a northern arc. This proves the earth is not tilting.

If the earth was round and spinning, all the shadows in the Northern Hemisphere would always point north. The Southern Hemisphere shadows would always point south. The shadows would always move in a straight line, never bending or arching across north to south or vice versa.

A ball earth can not cause a lunar eclipse. It can not be demonstrated. NASA demonstrates the lunar eclipse with a children's cartoon. They never show a live demonstration of a lunar eclipse. Witnesses in the Rocky mountains can see both the lunar eclipse and the sun at the same time.

In the Bible, every single reference to the sun states that it is the sun that is doing the moving. e.g Ecclesiastes 1:5, Psalm93 Verse 1B,

In 1871, an scientific experiment called Airys failure proved conclusively that the earth was stationery.

Pope Gregory set the gregorian calender, which is inaccurate. Fortunately, he could not change the moonlight.

The diameters of the sun and moon can be measured using a sextant. Find out how to do it on youtube. They are not the diameter we have been told they are.?

People say that they can see the International Space Station from their telescope. What they are actually seeing is a large solar powered, unmanned drone called the Pathfinder. The International Space Station is a NASA hoax, and the astronauts are merely actors.

If satellites really existed, all the satellite dishes on the roofs of our houses would be pointing straight up. In reality, they point to an angle of about 45 degrees, because they are receiving signals from ground based towers. Also, how can the dish pick up a signal from a satellite that is constantly on the move, orbiting the earth.

There are no photographs of a globe earth taken from space. If there were really satellites in space they would have taken thousands of photographs of a globe earth by now. All we ever have been shown is a computer generated composite of what a globe earth might look like if it really existed. We have been shown the same composite over and over again.

The people of India have produced a map of the flat earth which can explain the seasons, the eclipses, the equnoxes and the solstices accurately.

The ocean currents and the air circulation drifts start to make a lot more sense when you view them from the point of view of a flat earth.

Hundreds of astronomers have declared their belief in a flat earth on the world wide web. However, they have no way of making their beliefs go main stream, as the main-stream media is rigidly controlled by the " powers that think they are". When I was going to school the teacher demonstrated the existence of gravity by putting water in a bucket and swinging it over his head in a circular motion, very quickly. Of course, the water did not fall out of the bucket. However, he should have got a wet ball and twirled the ball quickly around and around. Then, we would have got to the truth that the water would not stay on the ball, therefore we do not live on a round earth.

A handful of elite individuals have enormous global influence over the media, education, politics, religion, medicine and pharmaceuticals. We are only being told what these powers want us to be told. It is very easy to control and enslave a misinformed, demoralised and chronically ill population. It is impossible to enslave a fully informed, vibrantly healthy, confident human race. We have been lied to on a large scale with regard to archaeology, organised religion, and history. Many science books have also been rewritten. The true purpose of public education is to destroy logic, and to indoctrinate the masses. Why would the 30 million Satanists who run the planet tell us the truth when it comes to astronomy?

Critical thinkers are called conspiracy theorists by people who are threatened by the truth. The shadow government use the overwhelming power of ridicule at every opportunity to portray us as stupid and to stop the truth getting out to the public. When the public finally realise they are being lied to about this issue, everything else about how reality is portrayed will begin to make sense.

"Some men say the earth is round and some men say it is flat. But if it is flat, could the Kings command make it round? And if it is round, could an act of parliament make it flat?" Sir Thomas Moore.

"Like it or not, everything is changing. The result will either be the most wonderful experience in the history of man, or the most horrible enslavement that you can imagine. Be active or abdicate. The future is in your hands. William Cooper 24/10/1989.

There is a video currently available on youtube which outlines two hundred reasons proving that the earth is flat. However, I had this research completed long before that video was available, and I have not included the other one hundred and seventy proofs here . Much serious science supporting a flat earth has been censored from the internet. These proof are some I had saved from an earlier time before this censorship.

Marfa was founded in the early 1880s as a railroad water stop, and grew quickly through the 1920s. Marfa Army Airfield (Fort D.A. Russell) was located east of the town during World War II and trained several thousand pilots before closing in 1945 (the abandoned site is still visible ten miles east of the city). The base was also used as the training ground for many of the U.S. Army's Chemical mortar battalions.

Today Marfa is a tourist destination, located between the Davis Mountains and Big Bend National Park. Attractions include the historical architecture and classic Texas town square, modern art, soaring, and the Marfa lights.

Amateur etymologist Barry Popik has shown that Marfa is named after Marfa Strogoff, a character in the Jules Verne novel Michael Strogoff and its theatrical adaptation; the origin was reported in the Galveston Daily News on December 17, 1882, after the Marfa railroad station was established but before Marfa received a post office in 1883.

Starting Oct 1st, 2009 the city will no longer have a local police department. The Presidio County Sheriff will patrol the city which Marfa is the county seat of Presidio.

The Handbook of Texas states that the wife of a railroad executive "reportedly" suggested the name "Marfa" after a name in the Fyodor Dostoevsky novel The Brothers Karamazov, which she read.^[3]

[edit] Geography

Marfa is located at 30°18′43″N 104°1′29″W / 30.31194°N 104.02472°W / 30.31194; -104.02472 (30.311863, -104.024779)^[4].

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 1.6 square miles (4.1 km²), all of it land. It is a small city.

[edit] Modern Art and minimalism

In 1971, Donald Judd, the renowned minimalist artist, moved to Marfa from New York City. After renting summer houses for a couple of years he bought two large hangars, some smaller buildings and started to permanently install his art. While this started with his building in New York, the buildings in Marfa (now The Block, Judd Foundation) allowed him to install his works on a larger scale. In 1976 he bought the first of two ranches that would become his primary places of residence, continuing a long love affair with the desert landscape surrounding Marfa. Later, with assistance from the Dia Art Foundation in New York, Judd acquired decommissioned Fort D.A. Russell, and began transforming the fort's buildings into art spaces in 1979. Judd's vision was to house large collections of individual artists' work on permanent display, as a sort of anti-museum. Judd believed that the prevailing model of a museum, where art is shown for short periods of time, does not allow the viewer an understanding of the artist or their work as they intended.

Since Judd's death in 1994, two foundations have been working to maintain his legacy: the Chinati Foundation and Judd Foundation. Every year The Chinati Foundation holds an Open House event where artists, collectors, and enthusiasts come from around the world to visit Marfa's art. Since 1997 Open House has been co-sponsored by both foundations and attracts thousands of visitors from around the world.

The Chinati Foundation now occupies more than 10 buildings at the site and has on permanent exhibit work by Carl Andre, Ingólfur Arnarsson, John Chamberlain, Dan Flavin, Roni Horn, Ilya Kabakov, Richard Long, Claes Oldenberg, Coosje van Bruggen, John Wesley, and David Rabinowitch.

In recent years, a new wave of artists has moved to Marfa to live and work. As a result, new gallery spaces have opened in the downtown area. Furthermore, The Lannan Foundation has established a writers-in-residency program, a Marfa theater group has formed, and a multi-functional art space called Ballroom Marfa has begun to show art films, host musical performances, and exhibit other art installations.

[edit] Marfa lights

Official viewing platform, east of Marfa

Marfa may be most famous for the Marfa lights, visible every clear night between Marfa and the Paisano Pass when one is facing southwest (toward the Chinati Mountains). According to the Handbook of Texas Online, "...at times they appear colored as they twinkle in the distance. They move about, split apart, melt together, disappear, and reappear. Presidio County residents have watched the lights for over a hundred years. The first historical record of them recalls that in 1883 a young cowhand, Robert Reed Ellison, saw a flickering light while he was driving cattle through Paisano Pass and wondered if it was the campfire of Apache Indians. He was told by other settlers that they often saw the lights, but when they investigated they found no ashes or other evidence of a campsite.^[5]

Presidio County has built a viewing station nine miles east of town on U.S. 67 near the site of the old air base. Each year, enthusiasts gather for the annual Marfa Lights Festival.

These objects have been featured and mentioned in various media, including the television show Unsolved Mysteries and an episode of King of the Hill ("Of Mice and Little Green Men") and in an episode of Disney Channel Original Series So Weird. A fictional book by David Morrell, 2009's "The Shimmer", is inspired by the lights.

[edit] Filming of Giant and other films

The famous 1956 Warner Bros. film Giant, starring Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson, James Dean, Sal Mineo, Carroll Baker and Dennis Hopper, was filmed in Marfa for two months. Director George Stevens did not have a closed set and actively encouraged the townspeople to come by, either to watch the shooting, or visit with the cast and crew, or take part as extras, dialect coaches, bit players and stagehands.

In August 2006, two movie production units used locations in and around Marfa: the film There Will Be Blood, an adaptation of the Upton Sinclair novel Oil, directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, and the Coen Brothers' adaptation of the Cormac McCarthy novel No Country for Old Men.^[6][7]

The 1981 play (and 1982 film) Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean were set in and around Marfa; no filming was done there, however.

In 2008, Marfa held the first annual Marfa Film Festival, which lasted from May 1-5.

[edit] Travel

In a January 2009 magazine article, lifestyle publication Southern Living sent a writer to explore far west Texas and its various small and eclectic settlements. In 'Wide Open in West Texas' Taylor Bruce writes:

"Marfa, Alpine, and Marathon sit along U.S. 90 like hitching posts. On first glance, the three are all Mayberrys of another era. Marfa’s one blinking red light; the Alpine Dairy Queen and Big Bend Saddlery; Marathon’s three blocks of storefronts facing the railroad. But I visit in search of the defining quality that draws people 400 miles west of San Antonio to live and to visit. I’m looking for the real towns, what makes them so alluring and freeing."

Bruce goes on to describe an evening in gallery-rich Marfa: "The two rooms of Yard Dog glow in the pitch-black stillness of the nearly 2,000-person town. Inside, the scene teems with locals, some who look like Willie Nelson, some like Brooklyn hipsters, a stylish mix of rancher and Warhol seen all over Marfa."
