Informative videos (like the short style of StormCloudsGathering)
I noticed a few months ago a youtube channel and web site called StormCloudsGathering, which others have been sharing on facebook and sometimes posted on SOTT. (The website is _http://StormCloudsGathering.com/)
I do not know who is behind these videos, but it appears to me that they are doing a pretty good service in cutting through the lies and propaganda. Does anyone have any more information, or have any comments about their work?
There are people out there who do not spend much time reading and for them perhaps short video presentations work better to awake their interest.
Of course videos may have flaws so we it might be nice to mention some of these flaws when sharing to other people. I don't always think to do that.
It may not be a good idea to share all of these videos, all the time, but perhaps just be aware of them, see if one understands them, and if so, some of these might come in handy in making a point at some time when discussing with others. Or else they can be shared as timely reminders according what is going on in the news as I see some people are doing in relation to the Syria conflict.
All the while we remember to practice external consideration, of course! :)
Below are the videos I had time to look at, so it is not an exhaustive list:
The Syrian War What You're Not Being Told

Published on Sep 3, 2013
What's really going on in Syria? Let's look at the evidence.

Very timely and seems accurate given the current situation in Syria.
The Road to World War 3
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HP7L8bw5QF4
Published on Sep 11, 2012
Description: We are on a road that leads straight to the World War 3, but in order to see that and to fully understand what is at stake you have to look at the big picture and connect the dots. This video examines the history of the dollar, its relation to oil, and the real motives behind the wars of the past two decades.
14min
Paraphrased quote from video: Why did the United States attack Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Yemen? Why are US operatives helping to destabilize Syria? And why intent on taking down Iran?
My comments:
This contains important background information needed to understand the current state of our world.
It presents clearly events of recent past and the military operations in the Middle East related to Financial elites protecting their financial control of the world through US dollar.
It ends with calls to fighting back in the following manner
3 stages:
1) Now underway, ideological resistance. Waking people up to what his going on. Ideas getting critical mass.
2) Civil disobedience. Non-violent resistance. Withhold money and obedience to the goverment.
3) Direct physical resistance. Should be avoided and delayed as long as possible if number 2 fails. This is doomed to failure unless stages 1 and 2 have been practised fully.
It seems to give such excellent summary of at least the political and geolpolitical power games going on. Personally I am still processing those 3 stages of resistance they have presented, but the way it is presented makes quite a bit of sense.

Dear NSA (and all you other alphabet soup agencies), If you're listening, listen carefully, cause we have something to say to you.

My comments:
Ok I guess this is not bad, I did not detect anything inaccurate. I do no think it very likely that people at NSA will turn against their masters, but it still makes a point. Maybe someone else has an opinion on this one.

Explains the monetary system very well, and why everyone is a slave in this world because of it (except the few elites that have more money than they can spend in their lifetime)

World war 3 has already begun. In this video we are going to prove it

My comments:
Covers many important concepts that one needs to get and understanding of. It pulls no punches in exposing even some information about previous world wars missing from our text books.

The Truth about The Social Contract

Published on May 30, 2013
The social contract is a concept that liberals and conservatives interpret very differently, but In this video we're probably going to make both sides angry.

The Beginning of The 2nd American Revolution
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQLjI-N1h0E
Published on May 23, 2013
We're past the point of no return.
5.5 minutes
My comments:
The video claims the revolution has already started with stage 1: Ideological revolution where more and more people are starting to see that the current system has to go in some way.
It stresses a successful revolution can only begin in the mind of the repressed people when they realize they are not powerless and that they can non-violently resist oppression.
Example quote "...dealing with crowds, the forces that move them accumulate very slowly and often without any outward sign until a breaking point is reached. You cannot force that breaking point, and you shouldn't try. Rather you should seek to foster those underlying forces and light fires that accelerate the process organically ... not acts of aggression ... but strategic acts of defiance that expose the true nature of the oppressors to the public." So it is not only about WHAT actions are done, but how the actions are perceived by the public, and this is crucial, because if they are perceived wrong, it hurts the whole cause.
I am not sure what to say about this one, so maybe check it out for yourselves.

I probably won't choose this one to send to my wider circle of friends. In general I am focusing on current events on my facebook page, for example.
However their little 3 minute attempt is not bad to watch! This may need to be examined more carefully and critically, and certainly it cannot present a complete picture, but what they said is much more reasonable than absurd theories like a dude name Jehovah/Yahweh making the world in 6 days, or a big bang from nothing, with intelligent life coming into existence by chance. It presents an idea that we may have a misunderstanding of time, and gives a quick view about the "oneness" of the universe.
