What's Planned For Giza At the Millennium
We don't know how you feel but the "official" "millennial" "celebrations" planned at the Giza Plateau on Dec. 31 as detailed in the yahoo!
article below sound pretty damn spooky to us. Masonic symbolism will abound at the event, which some like David Icke claim will be a distraction from
satanic, Illuminati rituals being conducted underneath the Giza Plateau by New World Order fuhrers like George Bush and the British royals.
According to the article below, official pyramid custodian Zahi Hawass says the whole Giza plateau, including all three pyramids and the Sphinx, will
be closed "for security" reasons for about 36 hours, from the evening of December 30, 1999 until after dawn on January 1, 2000.... Hmmm...
"Security" reasons? Tex Marrs says the closing will be to prevent any interference with what he calls ceremonies of "consummate evil" to be
conducted by aforementioned freakazoids like Bush, etc.; designed to call down Lucifer itself and usher in an age of "hell on earth".
OUR sources indicate that the Hall of Records and other underground areas beneath the Giza Plateau have been commandeered by anti-NWO forces. These
sources believe that NASA/NWO teams being sent to penetrate the Giza underground may have been on board Fl. 990. Even if they weren't, the "other"
folks got there first and are NOT about to let just anybody waltz into these ancient facilities. The Sphinx, the Giza pyramids and underground
installations including the Hall of Records are reported to predate Pharoanic Egypt by TENS of thousands of years, if not more. This assessment is
endorsed by the most recent mainstream archaeological/geological research into the actual age of the Sphinx, etc.
Anyway, we DON'T like the sound of the outward, clearly "masonic" ceremonies planned for Giza on Dec. 31, and we REALLY don't like what we're
hearing about the secret ceremonies reportedly being planned to take place underground.
Furthermore, despite the contemptuous, dismissive tone of the yahoo! article regarding claims by Icke and others that the entire Western calendar was
"set up" so the millennium would coincide with massive, unprecedented solar activity, it is a FACT that solar flare activity, already at an all-time
intensity this year by any available historical measure, has NOT yet peaked and will not for several more months, according to previous patterns.
Exactly what impact this severe solar activity will have upon life on earth is really an unknown at this time, but it's safe to say that the
potential for major effects is great.
One source of ours says that much of the Y2K hoopla is actually to disguise the drastic and destructive effect these increasingly severe solar
disturbances may VERY WELL have upon computer systems, communications and just about any EM/RF technologies, not to mention on earth's life forms.
Sunscreen may NOT be enough to deal with that action.

Egypt wary of prophets of doom at millennium celebrations

GIZA, Egypt, Nov 16 (AFP) -
Egypt is on guard against "pyramidiots" preaching millennium conspiracy theories on the Internet, with officials warning zero tolerance if they
descend on the Giza Pyramids expecting Satan to appear as 2000 dawns.
At least two spiritual tour operators are advertising millennium trips to the pyramids, billing guest speakers such as David Icke, the former British
television sportscaster-turned-prophet of doom.
Icke and others are warning that ex-US president George Bush will summon oppressive evil forces at a black mass in a dank stone burial chamber deep
inside the great Cheops pyramid at midnight on December 31.
According to his website, Bush and the British royal family are key members of the world "Illuminati elite" of human-reptile hybrids whose rituals
are designed to tap into fourth dimensional energy forces and deprive ordinary human mortals of their consciousness.
But the Egyptian government's custodian of the Giza pyramids, Zahi Hawass, said he has no time for the "pyramidiots" and warned they would be
"dismissed" if they cause any trouble at the end of the millennium.
"All this is hallucination. We'll never permit anyone to insult the pyramids," Hawass said. "They're sacred and divine and I'm going to keep
them sacred and divine."
The whole Giza plateau, including all three pyramids and the Sphinx, will be closed "for security" reasons for about 36 hours, from the evening of
December 30, 1999 until after dawn on January 1, 2000, he said.
Police presence will be stepped up both at the pyramids and in the nearby desert where 50,000 party-goers will be channelled into an all-night,
end-of-year spectacle starring multimedia artist Jean-Michel Jarre.
Although Egyptian security forces are mainly concerned about threats from Islamic militants, they will also be keeping a watchful eye out for fringe
groups around the Giza trio.
But Hawass' plans to restrict access look set only to stoke the fires of pre-millennial hysteria as conspiracy theorists like US new age author Texe
Marrs allege that the custodian is in on the plot with the black priests.
Not even the clean-cut Frenchman's electronic opera remains untainted after the Egyptian press started weaving its own strands in the tangled web of
millenarian occult hype last month.
The notorious bi-weekly newspaper Al-Shaab, whose editor-in-chief was imprisoned in August for libelling a government minister, has accused Jarre of
conspiring to impose "Zionist Freemasonry" on Egyptian civilisation.
Party-goers attending Jarre's multimedia show will watch giant images of the Pharaonic Eye of Horus projected on the sides of the Giza pyramids and a
light-emitting golden pyramid will be lowered by helicopter onto Cheops.
Al-Shaab, along with numerous doomsday Internet sites, was quick to identify the images with what they call the "Masonic symbolism" depicted on the
US one-dollar bill which shows an eye glowing from the capstone of a pyramid.
Hawass defended topping Giza's largest pyramid, saying it was designed to replicate the practices of the ancient Egyptians who he says crowned their
pyramids with a golden capstone to celebrate their completion.
"If the Masons want to take our symbols, what can we do?" he asked.
Texe Marrs, a retired US Air Force officer, meanwhile suggests on his website that Jarre's concert, which will be staged in the desert around half a
mile (about a kilometre) away from the pyramids themselves, is a diversion for the Illuminati rituals of "consummate evil."
"The grotesque ceremony, these men believe, will culminate in a visit by their glowing Masonic god of light and magic, Lucifer himself, at exactly
the stroke of midnight, December 31, 1999," he writes.
And if you're wondering what the pyramids have to do with the Christian calendar, the prophets of doom are always ready with an answer.
Icke, for example, who plans to be at the pyramids with a Zulu shaman on December 31, says the Gregorian calendar was "created" by the Illuminati so
New Year 2000 would coincide with a peak of mind-bending solar energy.
Others, such as Arizona Wilder, who claims to be a former human sacrificer for the Illuminati, would argue that Christianity is an extension of
ancient Egyptian mythology and that the year 2000 will usher in the "Age of Horus."

THE GOLDEN CAPSTONE CONTROVERSY

Will the Egyptians scrap the millennium ceremony at the Giza Pyramids? By Robert G. Bauval
Amid accusation of 'Zionist' plots and 'Masonic' skullduggery, the Egyptian government is half minded to canceling the placing of a golden
capstone on top of the Great Pyramid on the eve of the new millennium. It all began, strangely enough, in Paris in May 1998 when, after a golden
capstone was ceremoniously placed on top of the Egyptian obelisk which stands at the Place de la Concorde, the Egyptian Minister of Culture, Farouk
Hosni, announced that a similar ceremony would take place at the Great Pyramid of Giza at midnight on the 31st December 1999:
"We cannot rebuild the pyramids stone by stone, so we have chosen a symbolic event like the ancient Egyptians did when they used to cap obelisks like
what the French did at the Place de la Concorde".
Then in early October 1998, the minister announced that he had commissioned French composer Jean-Michel Jarre to organize an all-night opera for this
event. Details were then released in due course by the official Egyptian Tourist Authorities. They announced that Jarre would compose a 12-hours opera
titled "The Twelve Dream of the Sun" for the sum of 10 million US dollars and that,
"At midnight a helicopter will fly into the site and, hovering in a starburst of lasers and spotlights, will place a gigantic gilded capstone atop
the Great Pyramid --all to the accompaniment of what is expected to be an unprecedented Jarre crescendo of electronic music. The gold cap,
approximately 28 feet high (about the size of a two-story house) is being especially constructed to protect the pyramid structure. In place, it will
catch the first light of the new millennium as the sun rises over Egypt. Capping pyramids with gold and timing important events to the setting and
rising sun are very much part of the ancient Egyptian pharoanic tradition, making this piece of Jarre theatre particularly meaningful."
It appears that the idea originated with Dr. Zahi Hawass, Under-secretary of State for the Giza Monuments. Apparently Hawass had made a recent
discovery at Abusir near Giza, where he unearthed two limestone blocks with ancient inscriptions and drawings depicting workers moving a golden
capstone for a royal pyramid amid scenes of dancing and celebrations. Hawass suggested to his superior, culture minister Farouk Hosni, that this was
the ideal way that Egypt should celebrate the millennium. Jean-Michel Jarre proposed that 3 million people should be allowed to attend the event. The
Egyptian authorities, however, stipulated a limit of 250,000 for 'security reasons'. Huge promotional events were organised in various capitals of
the Western world, including New York, Los Angeles, Sydney and various cities in Europe. Preparations then began for a huge stage in the desert south
of the Great Pyramid, intended to have seating capacity for 25 000 people at the price of $ 400 per ticket. Cheaper tickets were also sold for
'standing' places. All was apparently going to plan until September 1999, when senior member of the Egyptian Parliament began to complaint of the
costs and that in December was also the religious month of Ramadan, when all devout Muslims have to fast from dawn to dusk and foreigners in Egypt are
asked to refrain from drinking alcohol or eating in public areas during the hours of fasting. To counteract such criticism, culture minister Farouk
Hosni stated that a ban would be placed on alcohol during the celebrations and that no music would be played till after the official breaking of
fasting was announced. To add fuel to this political fire, the radical Egyptian press, notably the newspaper Al Shaab (The People) found out that
Jean-Michel Jarre intended to project the so-called 'eye of Horus' on the Great Pyramid with laser lights, and immediately denounced the organisers
of staging a 'Zionist' and 'Masonic' stunt. The Al Shaab claimed that the 'eye in the pyramid' blatantly evoked the well-known symbol of
Freemasonry which can be seen on the US one-dollar bill. These accusations were hotly denied by Farouk Hosni and Zahi Hawass. "The suggestion is
groundless", said Hawass." The celebration has nothing to do with Masonic beliefs. The design on the US dollar is a faulty imitation of the Pyramids
of the Middle Kingdom."
The Americans have been paying particular attention to the proposed millennium ceremony at Giza, with dozen of guided tours already fully booked by US
and Egyptian travel agents. Others will watch the event on television with over sixty major networks already signed up to broadcast by satellite the
placing of the golden capstone on top of the Great Pyramid 'live' to channels all over the world.
"I will wait in front of the TV to see this great moment. It is one in a lifetime. I am counting the days!" Said Julie Holmes, a lawyer from Los
Angeles.
A high profile group in Washington DC calling itself The Millennium Society, with members such as ex-White House official, Edward McNally, and a list
of guests including Ronald Reagan, Mikhail Gorbachev, Deng Xiaoping, Bill Clinton, Bruce Springsteen, Elizabeth Taylor and Nelson Mandela apparently
will,
"attend the World Millennium Charity Celebration, the 'Celebration of Civilisation' to welcome the Year 2000 at the Great Pyramid of Cheops and 23
satellite locations on New Year's Eve 1999’ĶThe Great Pyramid of Giza, Egypt, will be the cornerstone site of the World Millennium Celebration,
and sanctioned events will be held at selected locations around the world. These celebrations will be linked to create a round-the-globe, round the
clock welcome to the Year 2000."
Adding to the growing hype is another strange twist involving the 'prophecies' made by American Psychic Edgar Cayce also known as the 'Sleeping
Prophet'. Cayce, who died in 1945, foretold the placing of a gilded capstone on the Great Pyramid which, according to him, would act as a 'symbol'
for the rediscovery of the legendary 'Hall of Records of Atlantis' under the Sphinx and the second coming of Christ:
"The apex, the crown or apex (or capstone) was of metal; that was to be indestructible, being of copper, brass, gold with other alloys’Ķ it
became very fitting that there should be the crowning or placing of this 'symbol of the records' by one who represent the old and the new’Ķ
Hence there has arisen from this ceremony many of the things that may be seen as present’Ķ the sounding of the New Year’Ķ 1998 from the
death of the Son of Man’Ķ"
Oddly, Cayce also associates the event with the establishment of a sort of New World order based on Masonic principles:
"For with those changes that will be wrought, Americanism with the universal thought that is expressed and manifest in the Brotherhood of man into
group thought as expressed in the Masonic Order, will be the eventual rule in the settlement of affairs in the world. Not that the world is to become
a Masonic Order, but the principle that are embraced in the same will be the basis upon which the new order of peace is to be established’Ķ"
Even more odd, perhaps, is the bizarre claim by Cayce that Jesus and John the Baptist (the patron saint of Freemasons) "took those last of the
Brotherhood degrees" in the Great Pyramid of Giza. The Edgar Cayce Foundation has, since at least 1973, been involved in various expeditions at Giza
to find the 'Hall of Records'. Two of its senior members, Dr. Joseph Schor and Mr. Joseph Jahoda, cause a huge controversy in 1996 when, under the
cover of a license to conduct a general survey of Giza to find and repair faults and chasms under the bedrock, they extended their mandate and
explored the ground under the Sphinx and claimed to have located a large man-made cavity under the paws at precisely the place Edgar Cayce had
indicated. In August 1999 during a conference at the Edgar Cayce Foundation, Dr. Zahi Hawass announced the release of a new license to Joe Schor to
conduct more radar soundings to find the Hall of Records under the Sphinx. He also announced that a small trap door at the end of a narrow tunnel
inside the Great Pyramid, which was discovered by a German team in 1993 using a mechanised robot, will be opened early next year by the National
Geographic team. Unconfirmed reports state that the Schor expedition planned to be at Giza on the 7th December 1999 to start their search with hopes
that the Egyptian authorities will allow them to 'go further' if the radar results prove to be conclusive. Over the years much controversy and
rumours has surrounded the precise relationship of the Edgar Cayce Foundation and the Egyptian Antiquities Organisation. Other than the fact that the
Edgar Cayce Foundation promotes psychic beliefs and Biblical prophecies of the Second Coming of Christ, the finding of the Hall of Records and the
lost continents of Atlantis, a much more down to earth controversy has been generated in an official biography of Edgar Cayce's eldest son, Hugh
Lynn, where it is alleged that the latter was responsible in some ways for arranging for the university education of two senior officials involved
with the Giza monuments. Edgar Cayce is also known to have envisaged in his trance sessions (called 'readings') the establishment of a new world
order based on Masonic ideologies for the next millennium and somehow connected to the 'missing' capstone of the Great Pyramid and the return of the
Christ. Whether it is anything to do with this or rather the recent announcement that an 'eye of Horus' would be projected on the Great Pyramid
during the millennium celebrations is not clear, but in November 1999 the radical Egyptian press began to make open accusations of "Zionist" and
"Masonic" plots, claiming that the combination of the golden capstone with the 'eye' symbol, which also appears on the US one-dollar bill, evoked
Freemasonic ideologies. This symbol is also seen on the Great Seal of the United States of America which many believe to be Masonic. In early December
the Egyptian authorities showed signs of caving in by threatening to scrap the golden capstone for the Great Pyramid. A face saving decision has been
deferred to a 'scientific committee' who will have to approve or reject the scheme. It does seem extraordinary, however, that at this 11th hour with
thousands of visitors already booked on flights and at hotels in Cairo and with dozens of TV networks geared to broadcast the event 'live' to all
parts of the world, that the Egyptians are now speculating such a move. With less than two weeks to go to the 31st December, such a move would be
disastrous not only for the tourist authorities but for Dr. Hawass and those who conceived the event. Also Dr. Zahi Hawass has very recently announced
that the capstone, which apparently is made of an 8 m high metal frame, will not be covered in gold sheets but in copper, a rather poor replacement
for such an event. Furthermore Dr. Hawass confusingly stated that "we cannot put it up with a helicopter because it will hurt the pyramid. Therefore
if we find out that that putting this capstone will hurt the pyramid, then, we will not do it." It is very hard to see how a light metal frame
lowered gently on the summit of the 6 million tons pyramid could 'hurt' it. It would be like placing a feather on an elephant's back; and even
harder to see how else Dr. Hawass proposes to take the capstone up the 200 plus courses of the Great Pyramid to a height of 145 meters above ground
level. Anyone who has climbed the Great Pyramid will know that this cannot be an easy task. Also missing the point, Dr. Hawass also denied that the
capstone has anything to do with 'some societies', meaning Freemasonry. The point is not whether the decision to place the capstone has anything to
do with the Brotherhood or any other 'society' but rather that the very act of placing it and the alleged projection of the 'eye of Horus' on the
monument evokes Masonic ideologies and principles. As yet no official announcement has been made by the Egyptian State Information Service to cancel
this event, and it is so far presumed that they will still go ahead. For scrapping the capstone ceremony would almost certainly be a serious blow to
the credibility of those who promoted the idea in the first place. It would also generate a backlash from the thousands of visitors who have already
paid hefty prices for airline tickets and hotels in order to witness the event on location; and greatly disappoint the millions of viewers around the
world who prepared to watch it on television. It seems that it is not the 6 million tons stone pyramid that is at risk of being 'hurt' but the
Egyptians' reputation for the flop of the millennium. The eyes of the world are watching.
