Signs and Symbols.Wps PICTURE PROOF: SATANIC POLITICS “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against . the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness . .” (Ephesians 6:12) This 23-pages “pictures report” sheds a light on the “spiritual wickedness” that permeates Lebanon’s political establishment. To succeed, we must strike at the root of what ails the nation and replace destructive behaviors with constructive spiritual and political principles. “There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root.” Henry David Thoreau My purpose is to bring awareness, especially to young Lebanese who are misled to do evil to themselves and their nation under the guise of political affiliation. The Lebanese should discard the use of “political” hand-signs, to throw away their political logos and flags, and to use only respect and logic as means of debate with their fellow countrymen. “Signs and symbols rule the world, not words nor laws.” Confucius “A naughty person, a wicked man . teacheth with his fingers.” Proverbs 6:12-13 The Witches Pyramid sign used by LF. FPM: If you join both hands, you get the same sign. Adolf Hitler Church of Satan Anton LaVey Freemasons 1 Witches Pyramid , also known as the four corners of the Witches’ Temple, is the foundation for all magical work and represents the mindset necessary to create magic and the qualities to be embraced by all witches. There are four statements, or levels, that represent the Witches Pyramid, and are all required to perform magic. They correspond with the four elements that coincide with the four cardinal directions -- To Know (noscere) corresponds to Air; To Will (velle) corresponds to Fire; To Dare (audere) corresponds to Water; To Keep Silent (tacere) corresponds to Earth; To Go, to make manifest (ire) corresponds to Spirit, bringing the other four elements into perfect balance. https://thetalkingpot.wordpress.com/2013/08/05/satanic-hand-signs/ The Witches Pyramid sign made by someone in front of the screen. 2 Islamists and the Witches Pyramid sign. Masonic “beheading” apron _____________________________________________________________________________________ 3 The TWO FINGER SALUTE or the “V” sign has been used by many political figures from Winston Churchill to Yasser Arafat and various Lebanese parties, allegedly as a victory sign. In Lebanon, the V sign is used as part of Al-Marada’s hand gesture. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6QThFvX8Ok According to Free Patriotic Movement (FPM)’s explanation of their own logo, “when looking at the logo, people can SEE and FEEL” the V sign for victory and the number 7 (which is V in Arabic) -- among other reasons listed. http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/lb%7Dfpm.html However, this sign has nothing to do with victory. The sign was recommended to Churchill by Aleister Crowley -- who also recommended the stretched out, right-hand salute to Adolf Hitler. http://www.world-mysteries.com/doug_jmaxwell.htm http://www.illuminatirex.com/illuminati-signs/ Crowley is an English occultist. His work influenced “two prominent figures in religious Satanism, Anton Lavey and Michael Aquino….” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleister_Crowley The V sign represents the 33 rd Degree Freemason level. Each finger bends at three joints, so two fingers extended symbolize ‘33.’ Freemasons use the letter ‘V’ to represent ‘33’. https://thetalkingpot.wordpress.com/2013/08/05/satanic-hand-signs/ The V sign can be a sign of Satan or can represent the ancient god of fire and destruction. http://www.illuminatirex.com/illuminati-signs/ In addition, according to FPM, the right edge of their logo also represents “the Road that keeps increasing and widening” towards “a new and ideal Lebanon.” 4 http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/lb%7Dfpm.html However, the Bible clearly tells us: “for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction…” (Matthew 7:13) Different politics, same occult: Kataeb, Hizballah, Lebanese Forces, and Al-Nusra Front -- all extending the right-hand salute recommended by occultist Crowley to Hitler. Some argue that the salute reflects “military socialism” -- wanting all of society to emulate the military. http://rexcurry.net/ 5 Kataeb (three fingers salute) Pokemon - “three fingers raised in a Satanic salute” http://www.ulc.org/2011/06/pokemon-are-occult-satanic-creatures/ Kataeb’s use of three fingers could also indicate a triangle (being of three corners), in relation to their triangular cedar logo. The meaning of a triangle is discussed elsewhere in this report. _____________________________________________________________________________________ TRIANGULAR CEDAR and DOUBLE TRIANGLE Kataeb’s triangular cedar and the double triangles (one up and one down) The triangle is of primary importance in all Illuminati realms, whether in the ritual ceremonies of the Rosicrucians and Masons or the witchcraft, astrological and black magic practices. Always the triangle is used. Among Satanists and witches, the double triangle, the Seal of Solomon, also called the hexagram, is of great interest. 6 This seal is actually composed of two triangles, superimposed on each other. One triangle pointed upward; the other, pointed downward. This indicates the reconciliation of opposites, yin and yang, or God and Satan. In his book, The Six-Pointed Star , Dr. O.J. Graham proves that this symbol was never used by King David of Israel and so the name Star of David is a misnomer. The symbol was chosen in 1947 for the flag of Israel at the insistence of the Rothschilds. Its usage stems from the medieval period when corrupt rabbis into cabalistic magic began to use the six-pointed star in their rituals. Dr. Graham declares this emblem a tool of Satan, unworthy of use by the Jews. _____________________________________________________________________________________ TRIANGLE WITHIN A CIRCLE Both the Lebanese Forces (LF) and the Progressive Socialist Party (PSP) use the triangle within a circle symbolism. The National Liberal Party (NLP) uses a triangular cedar inside a circle. NLP PSP: a triangle, an X (inside triangle), and a circle 7 http://www.lebaneseforces.com/deltalogo.asp The LebaneseForces.com website says: “The delta means ‘in the name of the father, son, and holy spirit.” That is a total falsification -- to provide a “Christian meaning” to an occult symbol, to justify its use within a Christian community. The website also says that “the delta represents the cedars,” and “the circle represents the circle of resistance.” That is also not true. The Thaumaturgic Triangle has long been used to summon demons. http://www.jesus-is- savior.com/False%20Religions/Wicca%20&%20Witchcraft/occult_signs_and_symbols.htm The triangle is the door through which the demon will be called; the circle is a boundary of power. http://kingdomsoftheworld.com/symbols.htm The 1975 war in Lebanon started in three areas (Ain el-Roumeneh, Furn el-Chebek, and Ta7weeta), forming a triangle to summon demons. Regardless of the reasons you may have heard for the war, the real reason was a satanic ritual. 8 Royal Arch Grand Chapter Masonic Apron -- four triangles inside a circle (a snake biting its tail) _____________________________________________________________________________________ THE SUN Whatever their political differences, at least they agree on a red circle -- which symbolizes the sun. http://gnosis1111.blogspot.com/2007/06/importance-of-red-and-blue-big-oil.html Similarly, whatever their political differences, they both agree on a rising sun. FPM says that its orange color is “the sign of a new shiny day.” http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/lb%7Dfpm.html 9 The rising sun can be associated with sun worship. In ancient Egypt, it was associated with Horus. Occultists consider it a symbol of world transformation and the dawn of a new (occult) age. http://stop-obama-now.net/obama-luciferian/ Aleister Crowley (1875-1947), British Satanist who was a high level initiate of many occult orders and a 33 rd degree Scottish Rite Freemason. The triangle on his triangular hat contains the all-seeing eye and has the radiant rays of the sun deity shining forth. http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/sociopolitica/codex_magica/codex_magica18.htm ________________________________________________________________________ AL-MARADA The Al-Marada logo has the double Satanic “S” on each side of a sword. The Satanic S represents a lightning bolt that means “destroyer.” It was worn by the Nazi SS. http://www.jesus-is- savior.com/False%20Religions/Wicca%20&%20Witchcraft/occult_signs_and_symbols.htm _____________________________________________________________________________________ 10 MARCH 14 ALLIANCE The revolutionary clenched fist within a black domain represents the International Socialist Organization (ISO). The second fist, usually black, could be a collective call to fight for socialism or communism in any group, state or nation. http://www.crossroad.to/Books/symbols1.html 11 Assyrian depictions of the goddess Ishtar show her raising a clenched fist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raised_fist Certain members of the so-called March 14 Alliance are as follows: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March_14_Alliance Social Democrat Hunchakian Party . All of its founders were Marxists. Notice the X. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Democrat_Hunchakian_Party 12 The Armenian Democratic Liberal Party -- Its logo includes the freemason symbol, the fascist symbol in the center, and the X. and The Democratic Left Movement -- is nothing more than a split from the Communists and advocates socialist policies. The Islamic Group -- has an Islamist ideology and was founded as the Lebanese branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. It supports the idea of achieving an “Islamic order” in Lebanon based on Shari’a law. The Muslim Brotherhood was created or infiltrated by British Intelligence and British Freemasonry. http://www.redmoonrising.com/Ikhwan/MB.htm 13 The Shuraya Party -- which claims to represent “all oriental Christians.” The Middle of its logo shows a pyramid with a separated top -- which is similar to the pyramid on the back of the U.S. dollar bill with the all seeing eye of Horus (Satan) and the writing “Novus Ordo Seclorum” (New Secular Order).

  • The Three Most Common Cross-Cultural Gestures Allan and Barbara Pease
    The Three Most Common Cross-Cultural Gestures Allan and Barbara Pease 1.The Ring This gesture was popularised in the USA during the early nineteenth century by the newspapers that were starting a craze or using initials to shorten common phrases. There are any different views about what the initials 'OK' originally stood for, some believing it stood or 'all correct' which was regularly misspelled as 'oil korrect', while others say that it means the opposite of 'knock-out' that is, KO. 'OK' to a Westerner, 'money' to a Japanese, 'zero' to the French insulting to the Turks and Brazilians Another popular theory is that it is an abbreviation of 'Old Kinderhook', from the birthplace of a nineteenth-century American president who used the initials as a campaign slogan. It's obvious that the ring itself represents the letter 'O'in the 'OK' signal. The 'OK' meaning is common to all English-speaking countries and its meaning is fast spreading everywhere due to American television and movies, but it has other origins and meanings in certain places. For example, in France and Belgium it also means 'zero' or 'nothing'. In a Paris restaurant one evening, the waiter showed us to our table and asked, 'Is the table OK?' We flashed him the OK signal and he responded, 'Well, if you don't like it here we'll find you another table...' He had interpreted the OK signal as meaning 'zero' or 'worthless' - in other words, he thought we had communicated that we didn't like the table. Use the 'OK' gesture to tell a French person their cooking is wonderful and they'll probably throw you out.

  • Chapter 18 Slang and Familiar Words and Expressions
    Chapter 18 Slang and familiar words and expressions Ma montre en argent est chez ma tante, car c’est la dèche en ce moment, je n’ai pas un radis. It’s quite a strange phenomenon. Slang enjoys a status in France that English slang does not enjoy in England. French slang has a legitimacy that cuts across social class boundaries in a way I feel English slang does not. Consequently, it is far more present in the French press than an English-speaking person would suppose. Only those meanings that are used in the press are mentioned; thus ‘allumer’ will only be translated by ‘to criticize severely’ and not ‘to sexually arouse’. Several terms may be found in Chapter 4 ‘The top 100 polysemic words’ Frequency is shown by asterisks and the grosser terms are qualified as such. In any case, students would be well advised to exercise caution when using any of the terms below. Depending on the social context in which they find themselves, the use of a slang term could be a real faux-pas. The golden rule should be ‘when in doubt, don’t’. Many familiar expressions involve animals and to avoid repetition, these will be found in the chapter Menagerie at: www.routledge.com/9780367376758. I need to underline that the terms below are those that one may encounter in the press; it is not intended to be a comprehensive list of French slang. This was not the object of the study. The student will find three sections below: • The top 100 slang words one needs to know, arranged alphabetically.

    home » writing/communicating » body language body language how to read body language signs and gestures - non- verbal communications - male and female, for work, social, dating, and mating relationships Body Language - technically known as kinesics (pronounced 'kineesicks') - is a significant aspect of modern communications and relationships. Body Language is therefore very relevant to management and leadership, and to all aspects of work and business where communications can be seen and physically observed among people. Body language is also very relevant to relationships outside of work, for example in dating and mating, and in families and parenting. Communication includes listening. In terms of observable body language, non-verbal (non- spoken) signals are being exchanged whether these signals are accompanied by spoken words or not. Body language goes both ways: Your own body language reveals your feelings and meanings to others. Other people's body language reveals their feelings and meanings to you. The sending and receiving of body language signals happens on conscious and unconscious levels. (N.B.

  • Many Times We Tend to Use Our Hands to Explain Our Needs and Thoughts
    Many times we tend to use our hands to explain our needs and thoughts. The same hand gesture may mean something quite nasty and offensive to a person from a different cultural background. Hand gestures are a very important part of the body language gestures. In this article we shall understand what are hand gestures. What are Hand Gestures? Hand gestures are a way of communicating with others and conveying your feelings. These gestures are most helpful when one is speaking to someone with no language in common. The meanings of hand gestures in different cultures may translate into different things. To explain my point, I take a very common example of former President George W. Bush who had to face a major faux pas during a visit to Australia. He tried to signal a peace sign by waving the two finger or V-sign at the crowd. You may think of this as a simple gesture, but he committed a major error. Instead of his palm facing outwards, it faced inwards. The meaning of this hand gesture in Australia meant he was asking the crowd to go screw themselves! A grave error committed by the then most powerful man in the world. Therefore, it is very important to understand the meanings of gestures before you travel to different countries. Before you communicate with people in different cultures, you need to understand the meaning of gestures. Those considered as a good gestures in one country may be termed as an offensive gesture in some countries. So, if you are a frequent flier to different countries, improve your communication skills by learning the meaning of hand gestures.

  • A Linguistic Big Bang
    1/25/2015 A Linguistic Big Bang A Linguistic Big Bang For the first time in history, scholars are witnessing the birth of a language — a complex sign system being created by deaf children in Nicaragua. By LAWRENCE OSBORNE Photographs by SUSAN MEISELAS At the Escuelita de Bluefields, 9-year-old Yuri Mejia signing the story of Babar: The young elephant is riding on his mother's back (left) when she is shot. He runs away (center) and then dissolves into tears (right). hen the Greek historian Herodotus was traveling in Egypt, he heard of a bizarre experiment conducted by a King named Psammetichus. The inquisitive monarch, wrote Herodotus, decided to wall up two baby boys in a secluded compound. Whatever came out of the boys' mouths, reasoned the King, would be the root language of our species — the key to all others. Herodotus tells us that eventually the children came up with the Phrygian word for bread, bekos. In addition to demonstrating the superiority of the Phrygian tongue, the King's inquiry proved that even if left to their own devices, children wouldn't be without language for long. We are born, Herodotus suggested, with the gift of gab. Ever since, philosophers have dreamed of repeating Psammetichus's test. If children grew up isolated on a desert island, would they develop a bona fide language? And if so, would it resemble existing tongues? Yet only someone with the conscience of a Josef Mengele http://www.nytimes.com/library/magazine/home/19991024mag-sign-language.html 1/14 1/25/2015 A Linguistic Big Bang would carry out such an experiment.
