CNN anchor Carol Costello aired a segment on Wednesday that described how the Islamic State terrorist group has been using emojis and images of Nutella and kittens on social media to lure women into its all-female brigade.
Costello said that Western women are among the most "sought after targets." "But how do you relay your message of jihad in a way Westerners understand?" Costello said. "Well, you turn to the language of social media, and that seems to be working just fine for ISIS. ISIS is talking online about jars of Nutella, pictures of kittens and emojis." Costello then explained the possible rationale for this. "These three images are -- in part -- helping ISIS recruiters lure Westerners into their fight because they want people to believe their life on the battlefield isn't so different than yours," Costello said. "They actually eat Nutella and I guess they have pet kittens." Costello also spoke with guest Nimmi Gowrinathan, a visiting professor at City College New York, who, according to Costello, is an expert on women and sexual violence. Gowrinathan noted that the impetus for some women who join the Islamic State is the desire to "have a sense of belonging" when their "political rights are being taken away." She also pointed out that there's a tendency to look at recruited women and to analyze their individual pasts in order to understand why they chose to join the group as opposed to looking at the larger scale suppression of women. "All the young women out there now, the women who are disenfranchised, the women who are being raped, the women who are under repressive states, who are under militarization," Gowrinathan said. "What are their lives like? What is making them need to join a movement like this?" As many of you know, we have an $18 trillion dollar debt, a $240 trillion dollar debt, a $200 trillion dollar consumer credit debt and we have the ultimate elephant in the room, the one quadrillion dollar derivatives debt. In a country that imports 20% of its food supply, it was reported yesterday by KTAR 92.3 FM (Phoenix) that massive amounts of food are rotting on ships waiting to be offloaded and the docks awaiting shipment. We should be wondering how much more can the economy take? What will be the straw that breaks the camel’s back? Even the Main Stream Media Gets It Rotting food. How many farmers can go out of business until we have a real crisis? This is being reported by CNN Money: “California’s famous navel oranges and Washington’s apples are rotting in the hot L.A. sun.Meanwhile, Japanese electronics and Chinese clothing items are bobbing in the ocean within view of the shore. The Pacific Maritime Association has accused the International Longshore Workers union of creating a work slowdown that has turned harbors into parking lots and shipping containers into putrid garbage bins”. CNBC is reporting: “Growers and shippers are losing money on exports they can’t ship while their crops sit on the docks and rot. Flooding the domestic market would risk a price crash, and some worry they could lose business permanently if overseas buyers get fed up with spotty shipments of spoiled goods”. Even the mainstream media gets it and there is not even an effort on behalf of the media to hide what is going on. Yet, I dread reading some of the moronic comments that I am going to see this morning which tell me to quit fear-mongering and the “economy is just fine”. What will it be that ultimately brings down the American people? The crushing debt in this country that brings us down? Will it be the current import crisis/scandal? Will it be the truckers going broke awaiting product to transport? Will it be the farmers going broke while their products lie rotting at the ports? Pick your poison. Where is the President on the present crisis? A Dream of Revelation One of the ways that the mind processes information is through the unconscious when we are quiet in both mind and body. I also believe that is when God speaks to us if we care to listen. These revelations can come through dreams, meditation, prayer, etc. Last night, I had a repetitive dream throughout the night in which President Obama kept announcing on the news that Americans had to stay in their homes so they would not be gobbled up by the financial earthquakes sweeping the country. In the dream, Obama stressed that the only safe place was inside of our homes. I was caught out at the gym that I work out at. A bunch of us would watch a news report about a new financial “earthquake” and then the earthquake would come right to the edge of the door of the gym and would have killed anyone in its path that was standing outside. We were trapped with no options. In the news reports being played on the TV at the gym, George Soros was repeatedly being interviewed and he kept saying “This is the end of the global economy as we know it”. Also, in the dream, we knew the facility that we were trapped in had limited food and water and it would not be long until we looked at each other as our next meal of opportunity. I have never had such a dream, but I had the dream, numerous times throughout the night. The dream also revealed to me that there are multiple causations for our economic demise and it will not be any one thing that brings our economy to its knees. I awakened with an awareness that there is no coming back from the economic struggles that have been thrust upon this country. An Email Excerpt Which Represents the “Many” I have received about 30 emails, in the past 24 hours, similar to the one listed below and in each case, they are moved by the spirit to express the fact that it is “game over”. “Dear Dave, I really love your articles, I read them each day or when they come out. I live in _____ Az. I have noticed that the markets up here are, well, drying up. That is to say the housing mkt is stagnated, even though most are in serious denial, we have over 600 places on the (small) market, Realtor’s are like rabid squirrels tiring to sell something. We have many places going out of business up here and there isn’t much here to be happy about that. Maybe McDonald’s is busy, but that’s from the trekkers from Phoenix every weekend. Our schools are broke and the food is so high it’s shocking to go to the store anymore! I am looking around at the news and this country is shot and I’m in tears! All hell has already broken loose and all we can do is pray and sit and watch the ship sink. Kinda like the Titanic, only a billion times worse..OH, that’s a real number now too! A Trillion, that was a fantasy number when I was young, not anymore… What used to buy/cost $40 at the grocers 10 yrs ago is now $150, seriously! We are in our early and mid-50’s and we see no hope for this once beloved Country of ours. My husband works in ______ oil fields and we’re barely making it. We are broke. We are weak. We are overrun with illegal immigrants who are destroying our healthcare and our health with old and worsening diseases! We are uneducated. We are led by morons who are just money and power hungry crazy people and a man at the helm who really hates America.Just look at what he is doing, just look… So, to sum up this note, I am exhausted and really depressed. I feel like all the preparations, hard work and sacrifices we have made will do little to cover our assets, if ya know what I mean. No where to run, no where to hide…” Using my email content as a barometer of the nation’s mood, this email reflects the overall sense of desperation sweeping the country. Economies are held together, in large part by confidence. When people lose faith and confidence in the system, that system is doomed. The danger to humanity is real and I think we are witnessing a convergence between the spiritual realm and physical realm and the dangers are clearly being presented to us in which it is now possible for all to see the Four Horsemen riding into sight. Yes, there is a lot that will happen before the Tribulation, but the stars are lining up. George Soros Is the Ultimate Economic Hit Man Disturbingly, Soros has repeatedly demonstrated that he has had both accurate and advanced knowledge of stock market and banking crashes in the past. Subsequently, savvy investors keep a very close eye on his money movements and resulting holdings as Soros is the “Canary in the mine”. He is the world’s ultimate economic hit man and both bankers and politicians watch his every move with fear and apprehension. He is my subject in tomorrow’s article. Conclusion If these cargo ships are not off-loaded soon, the earth will tremble and leave its mark right up to every home and business in the country. Parts of Europe (Greece, Italy, Spain and Ireland) are already experiencing some of what I am writing about here. The only question is whether it will take 6 days, 60 days or 6 months to collapse the system. Since truckers are facing the prospect of going out of business waiting for the product to be offloaded. Ask yourself a question: “If massive numbers of truckers go out of work waiting for product, who will be left to deliver the product if it becomes available”? George Soros is the fulcrum and we will examine his money movements in the past year with the purpose of looking for corresponding data to collaborate the information contained in this article.

It seems that many articles about survival and bugging out make declarative statements. In other words, according to some, if you do not do this or that then you will die. This may be true in some cases, but the reality is that every situation is different. Your survival will depend on skill, planning and material things and luck does play a role, but as some will tell you, you make your own luck. Past articles have typically advocated against bugging out unless certain conditions have been met because of the inherent dangers associated with moving about during a crisis, leaving a known situation for an unknown one. There are dangers associated with bugging out that you would not typically encounter if you sheltered in place. That being said however, some will leave and embark on their journey away from what they consider a danger zone regardless of conventional wisdom. In a crisis, just like in certain other situations, perception becomes fact. People will have to decide based on instinct or what their eyes and ears tell them, because traditional sources of information will not be available. However, much of the decision making will be based on emotions, and not always on facts or logic. Things to Consider Bugging-out is not the end of it therefore your plan will need to be a multi-staged one. The first part of the plan would be evacuation from the danger zone. It has to be done quickly, safely and efficiently. There is simply no point in leaving one dangerous situation only to find you are in worse shape. Get out of the area quickly. Once the decision is made you cannot linger. In some cases, it may take you all day just to clear the urban sprawl if you are on foot and this is where it gets dangerous. If you cannot leave in a vehicle then you really are in a perilous situation, probably more treacherous than sheltering in place. Leaving before the highways become clogged is your only chance, so this means you will have to leave before the need to flee is evident to others. You need to be informed and you need to make certain decisions based on information you have gathered. You need a plan in place for information gathering. You have to be confident that the situation will escalate to where your life would be in danger if you stayed. You of course, would have to leave well ahead of the danger, so you are taking a chance. You may leave and then realize you did not need to, and now you are miles from home, have used up supplies, and may not have access to fuel to get back home. You need to plan for this as well. You have to be able to sustain yourself independently of others. In other words, you cannot make a dash for the nearest drive thru window or hit up the local grocery store. If you do not have it in your bag you have to do without it. There is a reason why bug-out-bags are also referred to as 72-hour bags. You cannot carry enough on your back for an extended period. Seventy two hours of supplies is the reality for most people. Water, food, clothing and medical supplies are heavy. You need a plan for resupplying yourself. The Objective Distance from the danger is important. If your city is attacked for example, you cannot linger in the area, so you need to know the fastest routes out of the area. You need a destination in mind, a destination that is some distance from the hot zone. You need a way to get there, and assuming you can leave on foot is not thinking the plan through and it means you probably do not have a good enough plan. Anyone can come up with a plan but not everyone can carry out that plan. It takes practice and hands on experience or otherwise your plan will not be based on reality. It is easy enough to plan on bugging-out with the spouse/partner, children, and other family members. Easy enough to imagine this is what you would do, that is until you have to do it, and this is when plans meet reality and many will fall apart at this point if you have never conducted a dry run, and then tweaked your plan based on what you found out during your dry run. How to Plan On Bugging Out Know what you expect to achieve before you come up with a plan, and then come up with back up plans. Do you plan on setting up camp at the nearest Motel 6, go to a relatives or friends’ home or do you have other destinations in mind. Much depends on the crisis, so in essence you will not know what your plans are until something happens. If the crisis is localized then you could seek safety with friends or relatives miles away, or at a motel in another city, but if the crisis affects the entire country then where do you go. You need a plan for natural disasters as well as one for manmade disasters. Forest fires, flooding, hurricanes, and other disasters may force you from your home. This type of crisis is generally localized however, and it is simply a matter of getting out while you still can. Getting to an area not affected and having the means to sustain you and your family until the crisis abates and it is safe to return is the intent. If the power grid collapses then your plans to find a motel, go to a relative or friend’s home is not applicable. What Do You Need
It is not this articles intent to tell you what you should do one way or another, only you can decide that. The intent here is to get you to think about possibilities and to make you realize that disasters come in all shapes and sizes and no one plan is a “one size fits all”. The plans have to be tailored to you and your family and to what is happening on the ground and they have to be adaptable. In other words what is applicable today may not be relevant tomorrow.
