It is never a situation where a select sees one vision and another sees anything else even in the slightest detail. That would be a deliberate deception, and The Most High will not tolerate anything false that is not identified as such in His Presence. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Encamped and Headquartered in full array at Philun, 216th Realm, 4,881st Abstract, we received Call to present ourselves before The Most High, ALIHA ASUR HIGH, in accordance with standing alert. In presence with fellow Horsemen Immanuel, Horus and Hammerlin and our respective Seconds, I requested all available Seniors or their respective Seconds to attend in escort. We presented ourselves in proper station and I announced our Company to The Most High in Grand Salute as is the procedure. NOTE: Bold-italics indicate emphasis: In the Script of The Most High, by His direction; in any other, emphasis is mine. The Most High spoke: ""Lord King of Israel El Aku ALIHA ASUR HIGH, Son of David, Son of Fire, you that is Named of My Own Name, know that I am pleased with your Company even unto the farthest of them on station in the Great Distances.

  • American Nationalisms
    American Nationalisms America was born in an age of political revolution throughout the Atlantic world, a period when the very definition of “nation” was transforming. Benjamin E. Park traces how Americans imagined novel forms of nationality during the country’s first five decades within the context of European discussions taking place at the same time. Focusing on three case studies – Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina – Park examines the developing practices of nationalism in three specific contexts. He argues for a more elastic connection between nationalism and the nation-state by demonstrating that ideas concerning political and cultural allegiance to a federal body developed in different ways and at different rates throughout the nation. American Nationalisms explores how ideas of nationality permeated political disputes, religious revivals, patriotic festivals, slavery debates, and even literature. Benjamin E. Park currently serves as an assistant professor of history at Sam Houston State University. He received graduate degrees in religion, politics, and history from the Universities of Edinburgh and Cambridge. He has received fellowships from the Massachusetts Historical Society, Boston University’s American Political History Institute, and the University of Missouri’s Kinder Institute on Constitutional Democracy. His publications have appeared in Journal of the Early Republic, Early American Studies, Journal of American Studies, and American Nineteenth Century History.

LEDERMAN* Congress has recently authorized military commissions to try enemies not only for violations of the international law of war, but also for domestic-law offenses, such as providing material support to terrorism and conspiring to commit law-of-war offenses. Moreover, President Trump has indicated support for further military trials, including trials against U.S. citizens. Such military tribunals lack the civilian jury and independent judge that Article III of the Constitution prescribes. The constitutionality of such an abrogation of Article III’s criminal trial guarantees has been debated during many of the nation’s wars without clear resolution, and the constitutional question is now at the heart of a potentially landmark case, al Bahlul v. United States, currently before the Supreme Court. In the rare cases where the Supreme Court has recognized exceptions to Article III’s criminal trial protections, it has typically invoked functional and normative justifications.
