Babylonian Arts of War

We are living in a time when nothing is as it appears to be. Evil men have refined the art of deception to near perfection.

It seems that these students of deception have studied Sun Tzu's book, The Art of War, and were sufficiently impressed to put his principles into practice. In the translator's preface to the book, he says,

The Art of War, compiled well over two thousand years ago by a mysterious Chinese warrior-philosopher, is still perhaps the most prestigious and influential book of strategy in the world today, as eagerly studied in Asia by modern politicians and executives as it has been by military leaders and strategists for the last two millennia and more....

Indeed, some see in the successes of postwar Japan an illustration of Sun Tzu's dictum of the classic: "To win without fighting is best."

Its aim is invincibility, victory without battle, and unassailable strength through understanding of the physics, politics, and psychology of conflict.

This is the philosophy of Mystery Babylon today in its world take-over a century ago. The Bible foretold this by calling it a "mystery," or secret. This biblical empire took control by stealth. Its strategy was to "win without fighting," that is, to win without having to put their own lives in danger. The strategy was to get others to fight, weakening them all, so that they could take control of all sides.

This was the real purpose of World War 1 and 2. World War 1 was NOT "a war to end all wars," as advertised. Neither was World War 2 really designed to "make the world safe for Democracy." Those were the government ads to motivate good men to fight each other while a more insidious force took the reins of power from everyone.

Sun Tzu speaks of the art of having a formless army. He compares it to water:

So a military force has no constant formation, water has no constant shape; the ability to gain victory by changing and adapting according to the opponent is called genius.

This tactic has been applied in the past century by using ordinary people who do not suspect that they are being used and manipulated by others to help the war effort. We call it immigration. The leaders of Mystery Babylon saw how well this worked in the settlement of America, and so they used the same tactic in Palestine. The "Settlement Movement" began in 1982 in Ariel Sharon's war policy. Once 100,000 Zionists had built homes in the West Bank, it became virtually impossible to reverse the "facts on the ground." No amount of peace talk could create a viable, contiguous Palestinian State.

These immigrants became a huge formless army for the Israeli government, which only needed to arm them and train them for battle, while disarming the Palestinians at the same time. They did not need uniformed troops as in conventional warfare. The uniformed troops merely helped to protect the formless army where needed.

In all of this, a large part of the Babylonian warfare was psychological. Much of this has involved the use and misuse of WORDS. This tactic was perfected a century ago through the study of psychology, which was popularized by Sigmund Freud. It came to be applied in society in the first Public Relations company, which in turn created The Age of Illusion.

Edward L. Bernays, "the father of public relations," was the nephew of Signmud Freud. His mother was Freud's sister, Anna. Bernays became the King of Spin. One of his clients was the tobacco industry.

"The tobacco industry, another early Bernays client, also relied heavily on expert testimonials to tout its products, recruiting opera singers and doctors to claim that cigarettes soothed the throat and aided digestion." (Trust Us, We're Experts, by Rampton and Stauber, p. 45)

George Orwell understood the art of doubletalk. His book, 1984, calls it "Newspeak." William Lutz, a professor at Rutgers University, wrote a book called Doublespeak. These authors wrote about the misuse of words and language (euphemisms) to influence behavior and control the people's thought patterns.

The art of deception is at the heart of virtually all public relations today.

"Marketing is a battle of perception, not products. Truth has no bearing on the issue," says advertising executive Jack Trout. (Trust Us, We're Experts, p. 58)

These arts of war have not been lost on the politicians and even foreign governments, who regularly hire PR firms to spruce up their image. Their lies are now just untruths, gambling is now gaming, tax is revenue, firing is now downsizing, welfare is now an entitlement program, and sending jobs overseas is now outsourcing. Who invented this new language?

In Genesis 11 we read how new languages came into being at the Tower of Babel. Verse 7 says,

"Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."

Modern Babylonians are now using that principle to turn lemons into lemonade. New languages of "correctness" are constantly being developed. They are not designed to clarify or to convey truth. They are designed to deceive and manipulate.

This is the Witchcraft Factor in today's society. It is the art of manipulating others to do your bidding.

In conjunction with this deception is the euphemism of the state of "Israel." It is no secret among Jews that the biblical Israel consisted of the so-called "lost ten tribes." The term "Jew" is merely a shortened form of Judah. They had prayed in their synagogues for thousands of years to be reunited with the house of Israel, but then suddenly in 1948 they decided to call themselves Israel. Why? Because they knew it would deceive Christians into thinking that it was fulfilling those prophecies of Scripture.

It is a clear case of mistaken identity, prophesied in Scripture, and yet it is part of the entire Babylonian spirit of Newspeak and Doublespeak, applied by psychology and the art of war. Its effectiveness is seen in the fact that both parties of the American government cower under the influence of AIPAC. This will not change until the Church in America is healed of its blindness. But in my view, the blindness will remain until Hagar-Jerusalem is cast out. In fact, I believe that the destruction of Jerusalem is the only thing that will open the eyes of the blind Church.

That is unfortunate (from a human perspective), because it means a lot of people are going to have to die in order that the Church will believe the Truth of Scripture.

On May 15, 2011 a Palestinian activist stood up in John Hagee's church, holding the picture of a Palestinian mother burying her child. The caption on the picture read, "Your tithes are responsible for this!" John Hagee himself wrote about this in a newsletter. His only comment was: "The leaflet claimed Israel was responsible for the deaths of 1,500 children since the year 2000."

He said nothing of the fact that the tithes of Christian people were being used to kill people. Tithes and offerings are a way of participation. The Palestinian woman was correct in her assessment. How important is it to know who's who in Bible prophecy? It may make quite a difference when we stand before God and have to explain the blood on our hands for not understanding the Scriptures.
