Yes but Im merely stating that its up to you as a person to be logical enough to be in control of your own actions, in this case the reprocussions of fear, if you cant look at the situation logically, take the initiative to weigh up what someone says against your own research, then thats your problem
Of course it doesint and I didint say that, the point is there is truth and non-truth in everything, its up to you yourself to read between the lines and draw your own conclusions, your point is valid, but mine is equally so, lets take up an middle ground and just keep seeking the truth

I trust him on his conclusions but not his details.
Once you get a basic foundation of knowledge, you are entitled to skim and search and speedread for the missing chunks of information you need to fill in the holes, connect the dots.
The proof is in the pudding. Alex is right about everything he says.
Executive Order 12986
One of Alex's favorite claims is that the US government is giving away its land to the United Nations. He claims that Executive Order 12986, signed by President Clinton on January 18, 1996, effectuated this transfer. Obviously if this was true, it would be a pretty serious charge.
Unfortunately for Alex, reading the Order itself dispenses with this ridiculous notion. As it turns out, the EO grants immunity from lawsuits to an international environmental organization, the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCNN). Indeed, it doesn't even give full protection to the IUCNN, because the EO specifically withholds immunity for the organization's property and assets similar to foreign governments, immunity from search and confiscation, and immunity for acts in their official capacities. The EO actually gives pretty watered-down protection to the IUCNN!
Otherwise, we'd never know that our politicians are devil worshippers and perverts who pray to Molech and molest kids.
Shall we try for a third time?
Gee would you lookie there. Someone proving him wrong 10+ years ago. Now what were you saying about him always being right?
Wow.. Let's take a step back into reality for a moment please.
Let me ask you this question: With all the useless thousands of famous people (and that's just America),...... heat for people like Mel Gibson and his ilk? All these worthless celebs and you're picking on some dude in Texas.
Awww, poor media, did they get an owie from Alex's irritating personality? Maybe their sponsors can help him out? Oh that's right; Alex can only get grassroots REAL sponsors, not Tide detergent and GM automobiles.
In your defense of the American way of life circa 2009,
Who else is doing any work even comparably effective?
The "Boy who cried wolf" did eventually find a wolf so the lesson is for the STUDENTS not the boy looking or the wolves! You heard that nursery rhyme backwards if you think otherwise; It's a world full of wolves, is the message.
- a dehumidifier will cost you about 40quid for a fair one, 200 for an awesome one then a multi-pass water filter using a ceramic element, UV, prefilter and post filter is maybe another hundred for a good one.... So why when these two put together does it cost an extra 2000?

Two Films About Bohemian Grove
by Mary Moore, July 2000
Two very different films about Bohemian Grove were made in the past year.
The FIRST film, shown on British TV, was a documentary produced by Jon Ronson of World of Wonder Ltd. with headquarters in London and Los Angeles. (Click here to see a letter to Mr. Ronson from an unhappy person who participated in its creation!) It featured national talk show host Alex Jones who infiltrated the Grove in the summer of 2000 and filmed the entire Cremation of Care ceremony using a tie tack video camera. Unfortunately Mr. Jones' interpretation of events drew several bizarre conclusions including allegations of Satanic worship and human sacrifice. Although these rumors have been around for years it has never been the position of Bohemian Grove Action Network that there is any credibility to them. Our position is that we are concerned about the harm these men are doing in the OUTSIDE world and we are quite disappointed in the tone and conclusions of this documentary.
The question of the thread is - Is alex a fearmonger?
I'm just saying that all his adverts sell their products because of the fear he installs.
True, but ultimately, does it matter whether it's carrot or stick motivation? Is it important that someone buys a load of storable food because they're scared or for some other reason? I think it's great that people are preparing, food is food no matter what's going through your head.
Have you all heard the runaway train/fearmonger analogy? I don't know if it's been mentioned here before.

"....this is what men of principle and systematic planners can't help doing. A principle is, by definition, #right#; a plan #for the good of the people# . Axioms for which it logically follows that those who disagree with you and won't help to realize your plan are enemies of goodness and humanity. No longer men and women, but personifications of evil, fiends incarnate. Killing men and women is wrong; but killing fiends is a duty."

Before 1796 when British physician Edward Jenner tested the possibility of using the cowpox vaccine as an immunisation for smallpox in humans for the first time,
When an immune system is exposed to molecules that are foreign to the body (non-self), it will orchestrate an immune response, but it can also develop the ability to quickly respond to a subsequent encounter (through immunological memory). This is a function of the adaptive immune system. Therefore, by exposing an animal to an immunogen in a controlled way, their body can learn to protect itself: this is called active immunization.

Stop shifting the paradigm, you know what I meant.
Immunization = Tuberculosis Shot.
Vaccination = Flu shot

Before you say, oh no no no no that's not the same thing, it is.
So next time you say oh no no no no that's not what I said, go ahead and think about what you say.
There is little difference between immunizations and vaccinations.
So, you can go ahead

Jenna is going to be getting her flu shot. If Alex says not to, she will be sure to do the opposite. That's the only reason she listens to Alex, to find out what he is saying so she can say the opposite.
Jenna has no opinions other than to be against anybody who challenges hte status quo ..... blah, blah, blah)
Some of those facts and figures, most of them in fact, fade away into the memory banks. The specific information, names and dates can still be retrieved, but they will need to be found in the books and papers and records. Meantime, the mind is uncluttered, free to connect the dots, the big dots, because of the logic and careful study that went into the original formation of the search for truth that is now paying dividends.
Alex also knows his King James Bible and relies on it.
More than being intelligent, Alex is very wise. Wisdom is the prize above all things. Alex Jones doesn't accumulate knowledge for its own sake, but as a means to discover truth. Wisdom and Truth are sister and brother, and their power is unstoppable, which is why Alex Jones is toppling media empires without even trying.
