London Olympics 2012

[Graalsword]

If there is an 'attack' at the olympics, i dont think it will be to justify invasion of another country. It seems like the public at large are pretty much brainwashed about the middle east now imo, and anything goes. It seems like 'they' are pushing the boundaries each time. Each time they get the public to believe something even more absurd, the easier it is to shape the world exactually how they want.
If anything, i could see something like a UFO (Man made or Alien) sighting that is delibratley caught on camera. I have a feeling 'they' get a kick out of humans relectuance to accept that other beings (Or higher beings) exist. I think 'they' are getting closer and closer to revealing their true face from hiding behind the curtain. The 2012 Olympics are a perfect stage to turn the heat up.

Maybe, but I tend to think that it will be something to increase orwellian and repressive measures most especially on free speech and press.

Seems like the 2012 Olympics is going to be a war zone:

Elite fighter pilots say they are ‘trained and prepared’ to shoot down a hijacked passenger plane to prevent a 9/11-style suicide attack on the Olympics.

Four Typhoon jets will be on standby to intercept ‘rogue’ aircraft intent on causing carnage at London 2012.

Normally the RAF’s Quick Reaction Alert jets are based at RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire and RAF Leuchars in Fife to defend UK airspace. But the 1,370mph planes will also be stationed at RAF Northolt, in west London, during the Olympics.

It is the first time fighters have been based at the airfield since the Second World War.

I don't understand: are they thinking people is stupid? Are they trying something to produce fear? We know that we don't need snipers to stop a 9/11 scenario. Is this all this a sort of theater that they are doing for people to be used to see military on the streets, on the air, on the roofs?

Some days ago I read something about a "possible scenario" of destruction during the Olympics made by the Rochester's and they say that during the Olympics more than 100 thousand people died. I doubt that something will happen during the Games.

Somebody ought to start a movement to boycott the Olympics.

I think it is an excellent idea. But the problem is there: people are not informed about what is going on in London, all this military on the roofs and on the air. The first that should boycott the Games should be the athletes, the players. But boycotting the Games is like boycotting the soccer, there is so much money in that stuff. Very few people are aware what is going on. We should start to put notice of this on facebook and other places.

What is happening on this earth that people are so docile? And so ignorant? The responsible of this situation are the medias. I will give you an example: here in Barcelona there is presently a very important meeting with the European Bank. They are 8,000 policemen on the streets to protect the hotel where the meeting is taking place. There are also snipers on the roof of the hotel. Same scenario than in London. But yesterday I put the radio during the day to see if some program or news were talking about this meeting. And nobody talked about this. NOBODY.  I check the news in Internet to see if somebody wrote about this meeting, an zero information. I check the news in Canada, in English and French, and no news. Incredible.

People live really in a reality that is not real.

There were information about ECB in Barcelona, at least in French, here:

http://www.rfi.fr/europe/20120428-barcelone-securite-avant-rencontre-bce

But you are right loreta, no specific usual media talk about this incredible deployment of security here in Barcelona. The same for 2012 JO and these big media do not ask why.

I even read these missiles would be artificial!
http://www.bfmtv.com/des-missiles-sol-air-pour-proteger-les-jo-actu27205.html

No way! It is stupid!
And you are right, not enough people ask themselves the good questions... Lethargy.

Somebody ought to start a movement to boycott the Olympics.

I agree with you Laura, but those who would boycott Olympics do not live in the same perception of our world than people who live for Olympics...  How these Olympic athletes or staffs could know or ask anything? They spend their own time to training sport and nothing else. They are not able to hear something different about our World. At least for now...

Thank you MK Scarlett. Today I found information inside information about this meeting, today, not yesterday! Ok, if you live in Barcelona you knew what was happening. But the problem here, in Spain, is the separation between autonomies, every sort of province is like a little country per se, and the majority of Spaniards are a little jealous of Catalonia. I don't understand (or yes) this approach but the fact is that in my region I am unable to hear radio from Catalonia, for example, like if Catalonia was in another country or...planet.

So what I mean is that division is very good to divide people and to hide important information. If they block the frontier it is a big information for all Spain, not just Barcelona. But this information doesn't arrive here. This separation of autonomies is a very good game for the government. What is interesting is to see that Barcelona, one of the must "open" city of this country, was during 2 days, a bunker. Same with London: London is a very multi-cultural city, with people from everywhere  and a HUGE city. But it will be a "close" city, a bunker also. These images are interesting to study.

Well, FWIW, I have seen news about it everyday in the main Barcelona newspaper EL Periodico, which is the 3rd or 4th biggest newspaper in Spain, the problem is you have to dig a bit to find the info, as althought for a couple of days it was in the front page, then it was moved to less important parts of it.


The main discussion has been about how pays for the security and how much has it cost to the spanish taxpayer. They have been discussing the meetings and dinners, the police surrounding the hotel, and even complaining that all the merit has been assigned to the "spanish" police instead of the "catalan" one, amazingly stupid, but this was in the news :-).
I have never seen so much police in the city as in the last 4 days! ( and I live about 20m from the hotel Arts where the meeting was held but no desire to get close at all last week  - it is by the beach and one of the most touristic places of the city, the Olympic port).

[melatonin]

10,000 kids homeless on the street in England, and we are spending all the tax payers money on this money spinning ego-fest. That fact on it own should be enough for any rational thinking society to take a stand, nevermind anything else.

Edited - Changed the word would for should.

About fear being a prison of one's own making (that many people agreed about earlier in this thread) - it reminds me of the war on privacy.  It's an insidious control technique because it leads naturally to people self-censoring.  Eventually they will do nothing that can be interpreted as straying from prescribed behavior.  As an example, in the Soviet Union, I've read, the press censored itself -- learned instinctively the limits of what it could cover, what it could say.  Richard Dolan said the same principle is active in U.S. media with regard to UFO coverage, as just one example of a restricted topic.  We could probably name a hundred more topics, just be looking at the names of CNN's top 100 advertisers.

[PopHistorian]

FWIW, I also doubt anything significant will happen at the Olympic Games.  The event is so overtly "locked down" in an over-the-top way.  If anything happened it would be an admission that all of this over-the-top "security" is useless, which won't be lost on people.  People accept the strictures because they think it's necessary to keep them safe.  That's the whole deception being maintained.  A locked-down Games is an opportunity to show millions of people that they must submit to the humiliation of security measures, and it can be touted as a success of policy when no significant interruption takes place. 

I expect the security mission-creep to continue to suffocating levels.  False flag attacks, I think, would more likely be against (and to demonstrate) "holes" in the security system that the PTB will then eagerly fill. 

We know that incrementalism/stealth is the PTB's preferred way.  Even the WTC/Pentagon stuff was just a small push, IMO, because although it spurred quick changes, they were not that quick.  Some researchers say we're already 60, 70, or 80% of the way to martial law.  But, there is this issue of schedule or time-table that the C's have mentioned.  I always wonder about what they meant by "miscalculation" on the part of the PTB.  Though it could mean anything, conflict between planned incremental change and a schedule is a mainstay of engineering projects, so it wouldn't surprise me if that's where the miscalculation lies. 

[lake_george]

If the PTB are truly expecting a disaster in 2015, such as the onset of an Ice Age, then it may not serve them to disrupt even further what is clearly very disrupted already by many many causes.

The thing is, that if they want their bunkers built to be comfortable and stockpiled for 20 to 30 years (?) then it would seem like they would need to still have life go on with the 99% struggling to work - or find work - to pay their taxes, buy gasoline, fast-food, pay off their debts.  And all the PTB need to do is keep up the charade of the status quo, keep up the balance between fear and hope, especially keep up the distractions,  so that people keep working at their jobs rather than start storming the ramparts.  It is not hard to keep the real news (for example, the situation in Fukushima) from most people.   

A sign that there certainly must be some major disaster coming is that the PTB are not investing anything in trying to fix any problems here on the surface.  Most likely right now there is plenty enough knowledge and resources to enable many many people to live quite happily and decently, but why bother if there are just 2-1/2 more years?  The money is better spent on bunkers.

[lake_george]

Just to clarify my previous post:  The 1% see their money better spent on bunkers. 

I sure would NOT like to be in a bunker.  I am here with the trees and birds and Sun and stars and animals!   What I am hoping to do is to >use< this information of impending doom to help me stay more awake to MY LIFE!!! instead of falling asleep, thinking that there are  decades ahead - I can't afford to throw away any more time.  And to really let it sink in to me that my negativity FEEDS the lizards, and by extrapolation, my guess is that the suffering of all creatures, not just people,  feeds the lizards - so it makes it more and more clear what is the correct choice in each moment.

The bunkers are already built, stockpiled and secured, osit. The reason that they are accelerating their, from my perspective quite self destructive aim, is because they are soooo not in control, though they may like to indulge in that delusion. The most logical choice if i were they, would be as you said, keep up the charade, and not poke the bee hive as they're doing, but as we all know logic and common sense, are not the purview of psychopaths and their minions. It really quite literally is, watching a train wreck in slow motion, i guess that's the consequence of wishful thinking, and as the C's said, their Achilles heel.

p.s. i wouldn't want to be in a bunker either, because i wouldn't be able to see the stars, maybe a starship though.

In the run up to the Olympics, Rapier missile systems are planned to be placed on the roofs of certain apartment complexes in Blackheath, London.
To protect against terrorists, of course.

The man who filmed the unattended weapons, Brain Whelan, has been evicted from his flat by his landlady for "bringing the World's media into his flat", says The Times. This occurred following his tweeting of the events, which brought him to the attention of the BBC and Sky News.

According to an MOD spokesman, whom Whelan spoke to, the decision is not yet final. However, even the possibility of this occurring seems extremely worrying.

Moreover, to compliment the hypothetical missiles, troops are to play a significant role in security; according to a BBC news article published in December 2011, 13,500 troops are to be deployed during the Olympics: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-16195861

In addition, RAF Typhoons are currently operating out of RAF Northolt in accordance with Operation Exercise Olympic Guardian. This is the first time combat aircraft have been stationed at Northolt since the Second World War. Anti-military campaigners have spoken out against this, stating that it will "create a climate of fear": http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-17922490
