With the above in mind, I would be interested in your attitudes towards nationalism and how your work could, perhaps at times, lead you towards actions that others might construe as ‘traitorous’ or criminal, and if so, how you would reconcile yourself to that? Would you, for example, be willing to sacrifice your liberty for such a cause, spending the rest of your days in a maximum security Federal facility? Or would you in fact be protected from such an event happening? Whisked off to a desert island or the such like...

We were not "entrusted" with power, but knowledge. And yes, knowledge can give power if so pursued. We have not pursued power because it is against our code,our pledge of duty.
Originally posted by MabanTell me, when you look at Star Trek, a united world in peace, working towards a common goal of understanding and exploration, is that fearful, is that truly "evil?" I think not. I think many do not wish to embrace global unity, because it means that people will be forced out of their "comfort zones," they will have to drop previous predilections and prejudices and face other peoples for what they really are. 90% of the population want global peace, few are the true instigators of chaos and violence.
When I say global unity, I do not speak of a New World Order, nut a New Earth Civilization, a better way of life, a life free from violence, discrimination, prejudice, hatred, a sort of utopia. If you wish to know the shape we see it taking on, look no further than Gene Roddenberry's works. Are they "horrific," "devious," or "worth fearing;" you tell me, what fault is there in this envisioned future.
Originally posted by MabanQuestion, investigate, pursue, be willing to look everywhere any anywhere for the answers. But, something tells me I need not say this to you in particular. But, I can guarantee you that direct confrontation to too dangerous for anyone but the Shards to attempt, which we do strategically and often. What we need most, and what need be done most is investigation into what they are doing, and how they are doing it. We often follow up on investigation conducted outside the shards, which tip us off and allow us to purse more in-depth investigations, which yield promising results.
Originally posted by MabanNot quite, I speak more figuratively than physically, or literally. The Iraq war was fought for several reason,s some of which we are still trying to understand, but I can assure you that this ins not one of them. Often power plays or movements can take on a life of their own, a life its masters cannot control. A power which can turn against its overbearing and manipulative masters.

No, no, no. They believe in the same fundamental things we do, world peace, world unity, peace, happiness, utopia. The key difference is that they believe that this change can be "forced" into existence. That through power and manipulation they can make it come into existence by their own actions.
We on the other hand, believe that utopia must come about naturally, that it must be forged by humanity's own hands. That humanity woudl not accept a utopia not created by them. We act as the silent guardians of humanity and humanity's free will. We help inspire individuals to take up our mantle, and help create progressive change and help humanity, thereby nudging humanity in the proper "direction" towards enlightenment.
Originally posted by MabanI think the NIA is using both sides to bring about its own changes, its own sort of controlled collapse. They probably think by collapsing the region they will be able to crust the drug trade altogether, helping create a better world. Yet they disregard the millions of innocents which will be sacrificed for such a change. We believe that humanity must take control, not them.
The Remnants view us as "confused" and "backwards" Illuminati. That we are counterproductive, and an obstacle towards their "beliefs" and goals. Some have even gone so far as to label us "traitorous" brethren who openly fight them and their "purpose/duty." In a sense we are the "Rebels" of the original Illuminati. We are what the Illuminati was circa 500 BCE.

emsed1,
I have to say that your question about Juarez, Mexico made me
initially think about war-like criminal activities linked to the looming
drug legalization for personal use by Mexican government.
However I looked closer, and there is something else there -
a disturbingly large number of female murders for which many
men were trialed and jailed but nonetheless the killings continue...
If your question to Maban was regarding this possibly ritual human
sacrifice in Juarez, Mexico, then allow me to reinstate your question.
It appears that some drug cartels practice cannibalism, if that indeed
is the case how far are they from conducting ritual sacrifices?
Hopefully, Maban will enlighten his readers further on the subject.
I worked at a public survey company on public and current events, and you'd be surprised at the amount of people who don't care. They'll bitch about taxes being wasted, want someone to fight for them, but never say anything. I try saying stuff like "hey, you know our leaders will see this and it helps influence their decision making", and many just say it won't solve anything. I'd like to see where we'd be if Ghandi, or Rosa Parks, or Susan B. Anthony didn't do #. At times, I just want to give up on humanity, honestly.

Our duties transcends any imagined lines of control or power. We view the world as such, the world. When in space, do we see borders, do we see lines carved in forest, rock, sand, earth? No. Borders are imagined lines humanity created to both control and cage itself with. Borders create a false sense of security, a false sense of power, a false sense of pride, and a false sense of security. When Earth is viewed as a whole, there are no lines, mother nature did not divide us, we did it to ourselves. Yet again another point of proof, that we are the greatest threat to ourselves.

When in space, earth appears, if only skin deep, to be united, one globe of many species coexisting, except for human. The only subspecies which fights the natural order of thing, which sets its will against all, defiant to the end. IF we woudl return to mother nature's ideals. Dispense with our lines of division and come together like we were meant, from our creation, this world would be far better.

Governments were created to protect the people, so were unions, but they have become dinosaurs, outdated, and useless in modern times. Worthy of rebuilding and starting anew. Were I to act against a government, I would need not reconcile myself. If I continue to live by my ideals and duties I will never allow myself to be placed in a compromising situation whenst I would need to reconcile myself for humanity's collective sake. Governments are powerful organizations, no more. Only we give them power, they do not inherently possess it. That said, the power truly lies with the people, even if it is the power of fear, or the power of unity, the power lies with the people. I feel that if I do what is in the best interest for the people, I betray no one, only a system, an organization which was unable to help its people. In which case it may not even retain the right to continue to exist if it ceases to perform its deigned function.

Furthermore, were I to betray a country they would soon execute me on the spot, no trial, no questioning, it woudl probably seem in all likely logical to eliminate the threat once and for all. No tropical vacation, if I were lucky, a nice dark dungeon would probably await me; if i were lucky. Those whom threaten one's control or power, are not exactly befriended by such large powerful organizations.
Perhaps this explains why many astronauts are humble and reverent in their personalities.

Well when you said entrusted, I was just checking. I like to be analytical, and knowing how some of the other Illuminati work, not you I'm saying, but they may try and slip some things in there. Tell me this, you know about Skull and Bones, CFR, Royal Order of Jesters, etc, right?
I meant the original Iraq War, sorry, should have clarified. But that invasion of Kuwait did turn Saddam from one of our friendly puppets into a rogue, right?
Originally posted by Darky6K
So, they believe through war, hatred, violence and death, we can be brought into a utopia?
Would that not mean a dystopia, I thought they were highly educated and knew the difference?
Or is that the NWO, and you're making a different agenda all together?
You mentioned the Dark Path, do any of them willingly believe in 'the Dark Side' like Darth Vader, as you mentioned earlier, would have?
I understand that. They sound very much like Palpatine; rigging the Clone Wars and other conflicts in Star Wars and killing so many then dashing in as a false hero to give a tyrannical regime as the only hope. Of course, we know the truth is that he's the villain. I'd very much like to tell others that there are good Illuminati trying to stop these other guys. But what are your thoughts on religion and spirituality, do Illuminati embrace any?

But I want to let you know I am sorry for the loss of your teammates in Iceland. No doubt it was well planned, and I would assume you guys can take it right back to them. If all of this is true, then I wish you the best.
Below I will add my belief and am wondering if you also believe in something similar. The reason I ask is because of your comments on religions.
2) Does your group believe this way?
Also, about the 144,000, what I have been taught is that they will be ones that are at the time on the bad side, basically like what you refer to as the remnant, and that the good ones before the end would be able to bring them back to God.
3) Does your group also believe this?

All of you want to know the truth, the face of the enemy, well fine.
Here it is, here is your answer:
I couldn't agree with you more, I feel exactly the same way. I would though say that I do not think that governments were ever meant to 'protect' the people, in terms of guarding their safety, they serve to protect them as assets and property of that government (with a few notable exceptions). Most were merely built upon the shoddy foundations of principalities, duchys and kingdoms, not new, simply redesigned. Hence the repetition of the same mistakes.
In order for a global system, free of borders, to succeed we would first have to, like the Federation, do away with the monetary one. How realizable do you think that is? Look at how Guatamala, Cuba and Iran were dealt with when they nationalized banking and business...can you really foresee any of those bankers and corporations relinquishing control voluntarily? While I agree with you in all that you say, I cannot help but wonder whether it is only through a complete breakdown in societal structure that such a massive change can be achieved in practice.
