“If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.” -President James Madison

The Mockingbird media have Americans distracted once again, and this over a balloon that the Chinese allegedly had flying over this country gathering intelligence.  Really?  A balloon.  No, just another distraction to keep the people from seeing what is really happening (Ephesians 4:14).  Nothing more, nothing less.  The Mockingbird media has been doing this for decades.

Let me take you to just a couple of incidents so you can then understand that a good majority of what is being propagandized to you is not coming from without, but rather from within.

Do you remember the Gulf of Tonkin incident, which never happened?

The Gulf of Tonkin Incident is the name given to two separate incidents involving the Democratic Republic of Vietnam and the United States in the waters of the Gulf of Tonkin. On August 2, 1964 two American destroyers engaged three North Vietnamese torpedo boats, resulting in the sinking of one of the torpedo boats. This was also the single most important reason for the escalation of the Vietnam War.

After Kennedy was assassinated, the Gulf of Tonkin gave the country the sweeping support for aggressive military action against the North Vietnamese. The outcome of the incident was the passage by Congress of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which granted President Lyndon B. Johnson the authority to assist any Southeast Asian country whose government was considered to be jeopardized by “communist aggression”. In 2005, an internal National Security Agency historical study was declassified; it concluded that USS Maddox had engaged the North Vietnamese on August 2, but that there may not have been any North Vietnamese vessels present during the engagement of August 4. The report stated “It is not simply that there is a different story as to what happened; it is that no attack happened that night…” In truth, Hanoi’s navy was engaged in nothing that night but the salvage of two of the boats damaged on August 2.

In 1965, President Johnson commented privately: “For all I know, our Navy was shooting at whales out there.” In 1981, Captain Herrick and journalist Robert Scheer re-examined Herrick’s ship’s log and determined that the first torpedo report from August 4, which Herrick had maintained had occurred—the “apparent ambush”—was in fact unfounded. In 1995, retired Vietnamese Defense Minister Vo Nguyen Giap, meeting with former Secretary of Defense McNamara, categorically denied that Vietnamese gunboats had attacked American destroyers on August 4, while admitting to the attack on August 2.

In the Fall of 1999, retired senior CIA engineering executive S. Eugene Poteat wrote that he was asked in early August 1964 to determine if the radar operator’s report showed a real torpedo boat attack or an imagined one. In October, 2005 the New York Times reported that Robert J. Hanyok, a historian for the U.S. National Security Agency, had concluded that the NSA deliberately distorted the intelligence reports that it had passed on to policy-makers regarding the August 4, 1964 incident.

What about after September 11, 2001 when it was reported that the Muslims were responsible for the attacks?  For 18 years we were told by the Mockingbird media that it was a foreign enemy that did the attacking.  Shortly thereafter, agencies were created such as the Homeland Security only to find that American were then defined as the domestic terrorists (Jeremiah 11:9).

Oh, friends, the list goes on and on and on and on, literally.  And they have even admitted this.

Back to the balloon. We have been told that we are being spied on by the Chinese, which they are again allegedly gathering information on us.  Isn’t this what the NSA has been long responsible for here in America? Yes, it is!

Isn’t this also what Facebook and big tech companies have been illegally doing as well? Yes, it is!

Oh, the short-term memories of the American people.

Furthermore, wasn’t it Bill Clinton, behind the scapegoat Monica Lewinsky, who sold American military secrets to the Chinese back in the 1990s?  Why, yes, it was! How quickly the people forget. Friends, it is called treason and this treason is being committed against Americans while blaming their created enemies (Luke 22:48).

This government has been responsible for smoke and mirrors, and distractions to no end, as well as sleight of hand (Proverbs 19:9).

I have just one question, when are the people in this country going to quit playing the fools to those who are driving the narratives?
