Yoko Ono, “I Had an Affair with Hillary Clinton in the ’70s” beforeitsnews.com/politics/2016/05/yoko-ono-i-had-an-affair-with-hillary-clinton-in-the-70s-2806918.html"Los Angeles | Yoko Ono shocked reporters yesterday when she responded to a question concerning the presidential run of Hillary Clinton and the possibility that she could become the first woman President of the United States in American history. The artist and widow of John Lennon, who is in Los Angeles to present a collection of cups and saucers she is exhibiting at the Museum of Modern Art, totally took reporters by surprise by admitting she had not only met the former First Lady at various times during a series of protests against the Vietnam War in New York in the 1970s but also knew her “intimately”. The celebrity admitted laughingly to having “a fling” with her at the time and acknowledged her election “would be a great advancement for LGBT and Women rights in America” she added. Yoko Ono when asked about her thoughts about Hillary’s run for the presidency completely took reporters by surprise. “We met many times during the New York Vietnam War protests in the 1970s, and became very intimate. We shared many of the same values about sexual equality, fighting against the authoritarian, patriarchal, male-dominated society we were raised in” she explained. We had a brief romantic fling when I lived with John in Manhattan and Hillary was studying at Yale, but eventually we lost touch. I am amazed how things are going well for her and wish her the best for her campaign” she told reporters during the press conference. Experts believe the statement could affect the presidential candidates bid for the presidency but previous allegations of Hillary Clinton’s lesbian past have not seemed to play against the front runner for the 2016 Democratic presidential race yet." You should always believe everything you read on the internet.

It sounds like the little 6 year old boy, who fell off the roof, might have been on LSD. Jhon Balance, of Coil, also "fell" out of a window.

Found this interview with Kenneth Anger on the Temple Ov Psychick Youth website: "DNYL: You were saying last night that he took your van and then broke down in the desert and was picked up by the Manson Family. ANGER: No, this was in San Francisco where I was living in the Russian Embassy, which was the consol house when imperial Russia had a consol in San Francisco. We lived there. He stole the van and he drove it to southern California which is about four hundred miles south, towards L.A. H e had friends down there working in the group "Love", they were a sort of acid rock group that he played for++++. And it broke down not in the desert but in San Fernando valley on the road in front of Spahn Ranch, which is where a t that moment the Manson Family was holed up in the abandoned movie sets. They were living in this broken down Western village, and somehow they'd got this guard who was supposed to look after it who was blind. I mean, having a blind old man as a guard! They sweet talked him in, they said "we'll go get your groceries and we'll do this and that and so forth. You poor old man, blind. What a pity you're blind you can't see what beautiful chicks we are". Man son would use these girls in that way on various thing s. So, the girls came out, here was this cute guy, nineteen years old, with a broken down van and they said "hey, why don't you move in with us" so that's how he got mixed in with them. But he was my second choice for Lucifer. The first one was six years old and he died in an accident thinking he was an angel and could fly. His name was Vito. He had a hippy mother and a hippy father who were both artists and he was an absolutely stunning child. He had platinum blonde hair. It's never been cut since he was born, so it was down to his shoulders, and he looked like a Blake cherub. He was so awesomely beautiful. People would see him and just go "ahgh"! This kid had that charisma, that magick, but he died before I could use him. I told him I wanted him to be in the movie and he agreed, he said yes. And I didn't suggest that he would try rehearsing flying on the roof, but that's where he died, in an accident he fell off the roof. And you know it's just heartbreaking. Everyone was in mourning, in fact we never got over it. At any rate, you know, Bobby was the second choice and he was nineteen, not six, and so the angelic side... he was more the demonic side. And I thought I could handle that and I couldn't. It sort of blew up in my face! But he was arrested for murder two years after he left me. He left me in '67 and the Manson killings began in the summer of '69, beginning with Bobby and Susan, one of the girls. He had sold some bad dope to the Manson family that the Manson family had resold to the Hell's Angels, and the dru g agents had sprayed it with cyanide. And so all the Hell's Angels, about fifty of them, got extremely ill. They almost died, and then when they recovered they blamed the Manson family***. They said 'if you don't kill whoever you got that dope from, we will kill all of you'. That was California in the sixties (laughs), the so-called generation of love, or summer of love or whatever (laughs). That was a farce! And so that's how Bobby got mixed up in mur der and why he agreed to murder and, you know, they were al l dropping acid like it was breathe mints, and generally cutting loose from their family connections. They were all middle to upper-middle class kids, you know, rebelling against their backgrounds. That was basically it. DNYL: How did you meet and get involved with Brian Jones, Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones? ANGER: Well, it was very easy for me because I moved to London from San Francisco and my best friend happened to be the best friend of Mick Jagger and he still is today. That was the magick key in the door, but it was nothing special. I don't really like rock and roll, in fact I never listen to it voluntarily. I like some of their ballads, like 'Ruby Tuesday', I think it's a beautiful song, and some of the choir things. I never really liked 'Sympathy for the Devil', even that (but I don't think you can real ly call that rock and roll). But Brian was a very magickal person, and he was a witch. He had a third nipple. Like Rosaleen Norton (that I hope to make a film about) had the equivalent of an extra nipple. Brian's nipple was down here on his inner thigh, and for a straight guy to take down his pants to show me his third nipple! He said "I have a witch's mark' and I said 'yeah?'. And he said 'yeah!'. We were alone and he siad 'here, I'll show you' and so he took down his pants. And here's this little...but it was, it was formed like a pe rfect nipple on his inner thigh. And I said 'is it like your two other nipples?' and he said 'yeah, its fun to...here touch it!' And I touched it (laughs). You know he would play with me that way a little bit, but he was an absolute darling of a person. But I saw him destroy himself in two years with heroin, and the only reason he took heroin was to blot out his terrible fear of the public and the police. He got so paranoid about the police that were going to bust him for dope and all that, that he used to hide under the bed like a little child. 'Where's Brian? Where's Brian?' Well, he'd be under the bed hiding. Trembling, like this, because he thought the police were coming and they were going to take away his dope. It's such a waste of talent.*** I've enjoyed knowing those people, but I don't go name dropping all the time. I've known people that meant a lot more to me than any of the Rolling Stones. I'm sorry that Brian died, but it was a hell of a life. I wouldn't wish it on anyone to be a pop star. But I hope I live long enough to see the decline and fall of Michael Jackson. Because I've talked to plastic surgeons that worked on him, and his nose is held up by a prayer. In other words, it is collapsing in on itself, he had all the cartilage removed and its possible the whole thing will melt, like the witch at the end of the Wizard of Oz. That would give me a certain satisfaction, I won't say pleasure, but this story of him having a skin disease- he bleaches himself twice a week! He slathers himself in this ointment that stinks to high heaven and it'll probably give him cancer or something (laughs). He claims he has impetigo but that's absolute rubbish. He's been bleaching himself, which is like an insult to the black race." +++ The connection to Love is particularly important. I never really heard reference to them, aside from being one of Jimi Hendrix's and Jim Morrison's favorite groups. But, again, it is one of those things... *** Anger's "testimony" really blows the "Helter Skelter" myth out of the water. The matter of 'drug agents' lacing substances with cyanide is particularly interesting, especially in relation to the paranoia that goes with being busted. A perfect example of why the drug war exists: to inspire paranoia and a sense of impending doom in a targeted group.

www.time-loops.net/Experiment_Philip.htmIn the 1970's, a group of Canadian parapsychologists wanted to attempt an experiment to create a ghost, proving their theory that the human mind can produce spirits through expectation, imagination and visualization. Within a few weeks, Philip made contact. Although he did not manifest in spiritual form, appearing as an apparition or ghost, he did make contact through a brief rap on the group's table. "Philip" answered questions that were consistent with his fictitious history, but was unable to provide any information beyond that which the group had conceived. However, "Philip" did give other historically accurate information about real events and people. The Owen group theorized that this latter information came from their own collective unconsciousness. Another point of view is that even though Philip was completely fictional, the Owen group really did contact the spirit world. A playful (or perhaps demonic, some would argue) spirit took the opportunity of these séances to 'act' as Philip and produce the extraordinary psychokinetic phenomena recorded. faustuscrow.wordpress.com/tag/the-dark-man/For example, you can base the Slender Shadow Girl upon the Leannán sí, Fairy-Lover of Celtic lore, who in Scottish Gaelic is the, Leannan sìth, and in Manx, the Lhiannan shee. She is perceived to be a most beautiful Ghost woman of the Aos sí (people of the barrows) who abducts a human lover. Lovers of the Leannán sídhe are said to live brief, though highly inspired, lives. The name comes from the Gaelic words for a sweetheart, lover, or concubine and is also used as a term for a tumulus or (Agartha) burial mound.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=azJE4Gi_meo&feature=player_embeddedMorrissey‘s recent touring has been dogged with cancelations and postponements due to various health issues. But on the rare occasion that the former Smiths frontman does make it on-stage, he’s met by a different challenge: mean fans. A spokesman for Live Nation, which promoted the show, said in a statement that “one of the spectators standing close to the scene said extremely offensive and chauvinistic words at the artist,” possibly in regards to Morrissey’s recent cancer diagnosis. I actually spent Saturday listening to "Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before" on repeat. I must have heard it 50 times. Maybe more. About 9 hours. Still have no idea what Morrissey is singing... The Smiths - Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before Undoubtedly my favorite rock group.

isn't general aquino a member/director of the war machine I would say Aquino is a theorist that worked for the government. He specialized in East/West Berlin relations, and his work contributed to the fall of the USSR and the Cold War. Something that did not involve millions of troops and World War Three, as many feared. Instead, mass discontent - an effect augmented through western psy-ops programs - forced change. Clearly Aquino had an open mind and was willing to hear the opinions of people he respected. Paul Kantner was one of these people. The point I think is overshadowed by Aquino, for you, is Paul Kantner's influence. His accomplishments were not limited to playing music for dirty hippies. He was a great futurist and could envision a new world, which he shared with us. And you may be missing the point that I chose share the fact that this bizarre friendship even existed. Because I thought it would be interesting. Kantner's ideas were considered valid enough by uptight, rigid, government scientists that he was given the chance to loosen their imaginations. Anyway, war-like people are sexually and creatively frustrated. And, as Anton Lavey would say, compulsively unhappy. So yes, Paul Kantner was a High Ranking member of the Temple of Set, a rabid Satanist and sacrificed hundreds of little (potential) children to his bizarre Space Gods. And shared a lot of Joy along the way. Put another way, Kantner was happy and had no need to indulge his war-like impulses or engage in a perverted quest for power. He was our space brother reminding us of our ultimate destiny: The stars. I don't know about you, but to me that seems like a pretty noble pursuit. And I feel like I should probably get in on it. You know, the freedom, happiness, evolution trip to the stars sounds like a more productive use of time than calling soldiers fahgs. Excuse my french. Peace. Paul is Dead.

All that blood he was drinking with Aquino ... process... ; ) you mean sperm It's actually called semen, and if you expect your lady to do it you should at least try it. The male body literally exists to produce semen. Your body takes all the best from your diet and synthesizes this delicious cloudy snack. If that grosses you out, there is something wrong with you. Kind of showing where your head is at here... I think you're implying they're gay. Very clever.

what makes you better than any other idealogue revisionist? if you want to call me something, call me an anti-u.s. military tactics and strategy guy. i wouldn't run from that Aquino's paper Mindwar was a strategy designed to save lives and win wars without bombs or soldiers. I think you're missing the point, actually. One of our people managed to get to the highest ranks of the NSA. We had a freak in the NSA. You can't just disengage from the machine by giving yourself a title and ideology. That isn't going to stop the system. It's going to discredit you. You have to directly confront the system. Free of irrational passion, or anger. Just seems terribly naive to draw these child-sacrifice conclusions and cling to them even though the "research" is based on obvious fabrications of history. Should we just pretend that the war machine doesn't exist? That seems logical...

He was one of the few rock stars that was not replaced! Not sure about that maybe someone has good comparison pictures! Anyhow Bowie was replaced a number of times and most of the rock stars from the 60's and 70's were also replaced including Glen Frey who just "died". 1966 in front of the Stargate Early 70s Late 70s All that blood he was drinking with Aquino seems to have stopped the aging process... ; )

Marty Balin had some worth as the man who dove from the stage to try and stop some 'Angels' from beating up fans at Altamont. An angry Grace, now, stage-front, admonished the sick c-suckers by sarcastically thanking them for knocking out her lead singer, which drew some of the most vicious looks from the HAs, or, any humans, I've ever seen. Man, Marty sure had a pair, then. Kantner, I believe, isn't worthy of such praise mainly due to his association with, then, Colonel Aquino, and, certain military projects. The angels were not a security detail. They should not have been hired by the Rolling Stones as security. They should not have been payed in beer, speed and LSD. Meredith Hunter should not have pulled a gun. Most importantly, Mick Jagger should not have kept the audience waiting for 4 hours until the sun went down. And maybe he should have learned his lesson instead of repeating the event in Europe a few years later, complete with more bikers losing it and making a massive crowd wait for an unreasonable duration of time. Fuck Mick Jagger. To their credit the Angels were generally peaceful at SF gatherings. They even TOOK CARE OF LOST CHILDREN at the Human Be-In. There were no reports of a missing, hurt or abused child. The Angels were brought into the Prankster fold by Kesey, which is documented in Electic Kool-aid Acid Test, but which was sensationalized - like everything else in the book - by Wolfe. As Keith Richards has said, Mick Jagger is a flavor of the month type of person. It was clear to everyone in SF when the free concert was announced, which became Altamont, that Jagger was posturing himself as some kind of champion of the ultra-motive. Involving the Angel's probably got his pants wet just thinking of how "revolutionary" he would seem. It backfired, but it really didn't. Jagger got just what he wanted. He used everyone there to bolster his media image. Fuck Mick Jagger. I find it fascinating that just knowing Michael Aquino strips a person of all credibility. Or, having any interaction with the "military" for that matter. If all your opinions are inherited concepts and you have neglected to engage in the necessary research to determine whether these concepts are skewed or not - and you perpetuate them out of laziness - what makes you better than any other idealogue revisionist? Kantner has revealed so many little bits in his songs, interviews, & album sleeves about what is happening in the world & how to change it. There is a reason Aquino described Kantner as an Andromedan to his Draconian. A major part of a democratic republic is being reasonable and responsible enough to have discussions with people that you are at odds with. Kantner wasn't a meek little hippy scared of Aquino's bad vibes. Aquino is just a person. A person whose character has been freely attacked for about 30 years. And he still has a sense of humor. Like Kantner.

Har har har This Scroll of Set article (1994), by Dr. Michael A. Aquino, hints at the Magical Link between Jefferson Starship and the film Stargate. MA: Dr. Jones, have you seen the film _Stargate_? HJ: No, I'm afraid I don?t get to the movies very much. What was it about? Kantner: It was a somewhat fictionalized account of a project I did for the U.S. Space Command at Cheyenne Mountain two years ago. It was supposed to be hush-hush, under wraps, all that sort of thing. I guess it didn?t turn out to be that well-kept a secret, did it? ~snip~ Kantner: Well, the Stanford Research Institute down in Palo Alto asked me to participate in some discussions. I thought it was all civilian academic. Turned out that two of the people in the white coats wore blue ones underneath. So then in 1991 I was asked to come out to Colorado Springs. It was supposed to be a seminar sort of thing at the Air Force Academy, but when I got there, they took me up to the mountain, and then things got weird. Michael was there; he knows. ~see the band Sunfighter's (a Kantner band) album that i think is called 'blows to the empire'...what was that stargate conspiracy about again?~ groups.google.com/groups?selm=200...mg.aol.com " www.mail-archive.com/ctrl@listse...85226.html

In the spaghetti scene, after Aunt Jessie gets up and go away from the table, she calls the waiter (John) "Pirandello". Luigi Pirandello was an Italian writer. One of his most famous works was "Il fu Mattia Pascal" (The late Mattia Pascal). It is the story of a man who pretends he is dead, so that he can live his life away from his wife. Mattia Pascal (MP) pretends he is dead, but he is alive. Paul McCartney (PM) is the opposite? This scene always fascinated me. For whatever reason I believe the woman is a representation of America. The idea is certainly expanded in Monty Python.

This I have written this poem on a jet seat in mid Heaven." A Jet to London in 196 5. From the Discordians: " The Law of Fives is one of the oldest Erisian Mysterees. It was first revealed to Good Lord Omar and is one of the great contributions to come from The Hidden Temple of The Happy Jesus. POEE subscribes to the Law of Fives of Omar's sect. And POEE also recognizes the holy 23 (2+3=5) that is incorporated by Episkopos Dr. Mordecai Malignatus, KNS, into his Discordian sect, The Ancient Illuminated Seers of Bavaria. The Law of Fives states simply that: ALL THINGS HAPPEN IN FIVES, OR ARE DIVISIBLE BY OR ARE MULTIPLES OF FIVE, OR ARE SOMEHOW DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY APPROPRIATE TO 5. The Law of Fives is never wrong." The King Of May Is Never Wrong. 3,4,5 The Pythagorean Theorem. "python (n.) 1580s, fabled serpent, slain by Apollo near Delphi, from Latin Python, from Greek Python "serpent slain by Apollo," probably related to Pytho, the old name of Delphi, perhaps itself related to pythein "to rot," or from PIE dhubh-(o)n-, from dheub- " hollow, deep, bottom, depths," and used in reference to the monsters who inhabit them." The Oracle of Delphi "There are also many later stories of the origins of the Delphic Oracle. One late explanation, which is first related by the 1st century BC writer, Diodorus Siculus, tells of a goat herder named Coretas, who noticed one day that one of his goats, who fell into a crack in the earth, was behaving strangely. On entering the chasm, he found himself filled with a divine presence and could see outside of the present into the past and the future. Excited by his discovery he shared it with nearby villagers. Many started visiting the site to experience the convulsions and inspirational trances, though some were said to disappear into the cleft due to their frenzied state. A shrine was erected at the site, where people began worshiping in the late Bronze Age, by 1600 BC. The villagers chose a single young woman as the liaison for the divine inspirations. Eventually she spoke on behalf of gods." May Queen: "Today the May Queen is a girl who must ride or walk at the front of a parade for May Day celebrations. She wears a white gown to symbolise purity and usually a tiara or crown. Her duty is to begin the May Day celebrations. She is generally crowned by flowers and makes a speech before the dancing begins. Certain age groups dance round a Maypole celebrating youth and the spring time." Maypole: "Non-Germanic people have viewed them as having phallic symbolism, an idea which was purported by Thomas Hobbes, who erroneously believed that the poles dated back to the Roman worship of the god Priapus. This notion has been supported by various figures since, including the psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. Phallic symbolism has been attributed to the maypole in the later Early Modern period, as one sexual reference is in John Cleland's controversial novel Fanny Hill: '...and now, disengag'd from the shirt, I saw, with wonder and surprise, what? not the play-thing of a boy, not the weapon of a man, but a maypole of so enormous a standard, that had proportions been observ'd, it must have belong'd to a young giant.'"
