  • The Synagogue of Satan
    http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/Andrew.Carrington.Hitchcock/Synagogue.of.Satan/0740- 1818.htm The Synagogue of Satan By Andrew Carrington Hitchcock 740 Khazaria (Click on map) In 740 A.D. in a land locked between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, known as Khazaria, a land which today is predominantly occupied by Georgia, but also reaches into Russia, Poland, Lithuania, Hungary, and Romania, the modern Jewish race is born. A modern Jewish race that incidentally is not Jewish. How can this be, you ask? Well at that time, the Khazarian people felt a vulnerable people as they had Muslims one side of them and Christians the other side of them, and thus constantly feared attack from either side. Furthermore, the Khazarian people were of neither faith and instead practiced idol worship, which made them ripe for invasion by a people who wished to convert them to an established faith. The Khazarian King, King Bulan, decided in order to protect themselves against attack, the Khazarian people must convert to one of these faiths, but which one? If they converted to the Muslim faith they would risk attack by the Christians and if they converted to the Christian faith they would risk attack by the Muslims. He had an idea. There was another race that he was aware were able to deal with both the Muslims and the Christians either side of him, predominantly in matters of trade. A race which also dealt with Khazarians in the same manner. That race was the Jews. King Bulan decided if he instructed his people to convert to Judaism he could keep both the Muslims and the Christians happy, as they were both already willing to trade with the Jews, so this is what he did.

  • The Rothschilds
    The Rothschilds © 2020 – Dr. Don G. Pickney The name means "Red Shield" in German. The family's ascent to international prominence began with the birth of Mayer Amschel Bauer in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. He was the son of Amschel Bauer, and changed his name from Bauer to Mayer Amschel Rothschild (after the red shield hung over the door of his goldsmith business), a money changer of gold and silver coins who began his fortune trading with the Prince of Hesse. Born in the "Judengasse", the ghetto of Frankfurt, Mayer developed a finance house and spread his family’s empire by installing each of his five sons in the five main European financial centres to conduct business of banking. The Rothschild coat of arms contains a clenched fist with five arrows symbolizing the five dynasties established by the five sons of Mayer Rothschild, in a reference to Psalm 127: "Like arrows in the hands of a warrior, so are the children of one's youth." The family motto appears below the shield: Concordia, Integritas, Industria (Unity, Integrity, Industry). Paul Bede Johnson (born 2 November 1928) is an English journalist, noted historian, speechwriter, and author. He was awarded in 2006 the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President George W. Bush. The 92 year old Johnson was most recently given the honorary title “Commander of the Order of the British Empire” in 2016. Johnson, the most authoritative writer of the Rothschilds, writes: "The Rothschilds are elusive. There is no book about them that is both revealing and accurate. Libraries of nonsense have been written about them.
