APPARENTLY ONE can shoot people with impunity, if you have a security contract with the U.S. government and you do your shooting in Baghdad. That’s the takeaway from the District Court ruling last week that exonerated five Blackwater contractors who were accused of killing 17 Iraqis without provocation on the streets of Baghdad in September, 2007.
Evidence collected for the case indicates that Erik Prince, Blackwater’s founder and CEO, encouraged his employees to rack up body counts of hajis and adopted call signs based on the medieval Knights Templar — which is ironic, as guests Paul and Phillip Collins point out, because the Templars were heavily influenced by Muslim secret societies like the Assassins.
What does it all mean? The brothers Collins connect the dots and integrate Blackwater into a larger, more disturbing picture: a global neo-gnostic jihad in which the heresy of Dominionism competes with radical Islam and the New Age movement to create a literal heaven on Earth — by assimilating or wiping out those who disagree.

Game of Gods
March 26, 2018 • Carl Teichrib
GOD CREATED humanity with free will, the ability to choose whether to love Him and love one another, or not. Rather than cherish this precious gift, most of us spend most of our time blaming our circumstances on everything except our choices. And now a growing spiritual movement is promoting the concept of Oneness, the idea that our destiny is to become parts of one cosmic Whole. Carl Teichrib, author of the forthcoming book Game of Gods: The Temple of Man in the Age of Re-enchantment, has been researching and writing about this movement for years, and he explains that it's a lot more advanced than most of us realize.
Talking Turkey About the Mahdi

Dr. Timothy Furnish, author of Ten Years' Captivation with the Mahdi's Camps: Essays on Muslim Eschatology 2005-2015, joins us to discuss the recent call by Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for a unified Islamic army to confront Israel.
