God's declaration of Truth

GOD HAS SHOWN MERCY. FOR THOSE WHO REJECT THAT, THERE IS ONLY THE JUSTICE AND VENGEANCE OF GOD WHICH IS ETERNAL DAMNATION.

Luke Chapter 19

The words of Our Only Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in red.

19:10 "For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost."
19:11 As they were hearing these things, he added and spoke a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately be manifested.
19:12 He said therefore: "a certain nobleman went into a far country, to receive for himself a kingdom and to return.
19:13 And calling his ten servants, he gave them ten pounds and said to them: Trade till I come.
19:14 But his citizens hated him and they sent an delegation after him, saying: 'We will not have this man to reign over us.'
19:15 And it came to pass that he returned, having received the kingdom: and he commanded his servants to be called, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading,
19:16 And the first came saying: 'Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.'
19:17 And he said to him: 'Well done, thou good servant, because thou hast been faithful in a little, thou shalt have power over ten cities.'
19:18 And the second came, saying: 'Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.'
19:19 And he said to him: 'Be thou also over five cities.'
19:20 And another came, saying: ' Lord, behold here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin.
19:21 For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up what thou didst not lay down: and thou reapest that which thou didst not sow.'
19:22 He saith to him: 'Out of thy own mouth I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up what I laid not down and reaping that which I did not sow.
19:23 And why then didst thou not give my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have exacted it with usury?'
19:24 And he said to them that stood by: 'Take the pound away from him and give it to him that hath ten pounds.'
19:25 And they said to him: 'Lord, he hath ten pounds.'
19:26 But I say to you that to every one that hath shall be given, and he shall abound: and from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken from him.
19:27 But as for those my enemies, who would not have me reign over them, bring them hither and slay them in my presence."
19:28 And having said these things, he went before, going up to Jerusalem.
19:29 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethania, unto the mount called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,
19:30 Saying: "Go into the town which is over against you, at your entering into which you shall find the colt of an ass tied, on which no man ever hath sitten: loose it and bring it.
19:31 And if any man shall ask you: 'Why are you loosing it?' You shall say thus unto him: Because the Lord hath need of it.' "
19:32 And they that were sent went their way and found the colt standing, as he said unto them.
19:33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said to them: "Why are you loosing it?
19:34 But they said: "Because the Lord has need of it."
19:35 And they brought it to Jesus. And casting their cloaks over the colt, they set Jesus on it.
19:36 And as he went, they spread their cloaks upon the road.
19:37 And when he was drawing near, being now at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole company of his disciples began to rejoice and to praise God with a loud voice, for all the miracles that they had seen,
19:38 Saying: "Blessed is he who comes as king, in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"
19:39 And some of the Pharisees, from the crowds, said to him: "Master, rebuke thy disciples."
19:40 He said to them: "I tell you that if these keep silence, the stones will cry out."
19:41 And when he drew near, seeing the city, he wept over it, saying:
19:42 "If thou also hadst known, and that in this thy day, the things that are to thy peace: but now they are hidden from thy eyes.
19:43 For the days shall come upon thee: and thy enemies shall cast a trench about thee and compass thee round and straiten thee on every side,
19:44 And beat thee flat to the ground, and thy children who are in thee. And they shall not leave in thee a stone upon a stone: because thou hast not known the time of thy visitation."
19:45 And entering into the temple, he began to cast out them that sold therein and them that bought.
19:46 Saying to them: "It is written: My house is the house of prayer. But you have made it a den of thieves."
19:47 And he was teaching daily in the temple. And the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people sought to destroy him.
19:48 And they found not what to do to him: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.

The Second Epistle of St. Paul to the Thessalonians

The day of the Lord is not to come till the man of sin be revealed. The apostle's teachings are to be observed.

2:1 And we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and of our gathering together unto him:
2:2 That you be not easily moved from your sense nor be terrified, neither by spirit nor by word nor by epistle. as sent from us, as if the day of the Lord were at hand.

Chap. 2. Ver. 2. Spirit . . . utterance. . . letter indicate three possible sources of their belief that the parousia is imminent. Spirit refers to some falsely claimed revelation, utterance may be a statement of Paul’s which was misunderstood, or wrongly attributed to him, the letter seems to be one forged in Paul’s name.

2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for unless there come a revolt first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition

Ver. 3. . . The parousia must be preceded by a great apostasy, i.e., a great religious revolt, and the advent of the man of sin, i.e., Antichrist. Son of perdition, one entirely deserving of eternal punishment.

Ver. 3. The day of the Lord will not come. These words have been inserted to complete the sentence, which in the original is elliptical. The expanded reads "Let no man deceive you by any means: for the day of the Lord will not come unless there come a revolt first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition"

2:4 Who opposeth and is lifted up above all that is called God or that is worshipped, so that he sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself as if he were God.

Ver. 4. In the temple, that of Apostate Jerusalem which the full consensus of the Church Fathers declare he will rebuild - i.e. the Temple of Remphan; and in the Apostate shell of the former Christian church, which he perverts to his own worship: as the Freemasons have done to the Vatican.

Ver. 4. Antichrist will be characterized by great impiety and pride. He sits in the temple of God, etc. He will aspire to be treated as God and proclaim that he is really God.

2:5 Remember you not that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
2:6 And now you know what restrains him, that he may be revealed in his proper time.

Ver. 6. What restrains him. The Thessalonians knew the obstacle. We also know that it is Jesus Christ.

2:7 For the mystery of iniquity is already at work: only that he who is at present restraining it, does still restrain, until he is gotten out of the way.

Ver. 7. Mystery of iniquity, the evil power of Satan’s threefold prevarication and total Apostasy from God, of which Antichrist is to be the public exponent and champion. He who is at present restraining it. The obstacle is now spoken of as a person. Some point out that Michael the archangel and his heavenly army are obstacles, and this is true, which now prevent the appearance of Antichrist – but the primary obstacle is, as St. Justin Martyr teaches: Jesus Christ Himself; when the great Apostasy is complete, then in effect, Christ is “gotten out of the way.”

2:8 And then that wicked one shall be revealed: whom the Lord Jesus shall kill with the spirit of his mouth and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: him

Ver. 8. When Christ appears in glory, He will inflict defeat and death on Antichrist by a mere word of command.
2:9 Whose coming is according to the working of Satan, in all power and signs and lying wonders:

Ver. 9 – 10. By the aid of Satan Antichrist will perform prodigies which men will falsely regard as miracles, and by means of which they will be led to adopt sinful practices.

2:10 And with all wicked deception to those who are perishing. For they have not received the love of truth that they might be saved.
2:11 Therefore God shall send them the operation of error, to believe lying:

Ver. 11. God shall send. . .That is God shall suffer them to be deceived by lying wonders, and false miracles, in punishment of their not entertaining the love of truth.
Ver. 11. 'God sends.' God will allow their willful rejection of truth to have its natural results of spiritual blindness, impenitence and damnation. A misleading influence, or, “a delusion.” The operation of error - the Greek reads: "energian planes" or literally the energy of delusion, which is exactly and actually the fallen spirits of the devils and demons conjured by pagan religion, especially by idolatry. NOW, currently, the Assisi delusion of the Apostates, Ratzinger and Wojtyla and many others present with them, is a very real and prime example. To give oneself over to this is to invite utter and complete damnation of oneself by God.
2:12 That all may be judged who have not believed the truth but have consented to iniquity.

2:13 But we ought to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, beloved of God, for that God hath chosen you firstfruits unto salvation, in sanctification of the spirit and faith of the truth:
Ver. 13. First-fruits, i.e., earliest believers in the gospel. Some manuscripts read: “from the beginning.” That is, God called them from all eternity.
2:14 Whereunto also he hath called you by our gospel, unto the purchasing of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

2:15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast: and hold the teachings, which you have learned, whether by word or by our epistle.
Ver. 15. Teachings, i.e., his teachings whether given orally or in writing. Concerning Apostolic teaching – the oral is included in the written at the point we have the whole New Testament complete, i.e. with the completion of St. John’s Gospel.
2:16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God and our Father, who hath loved us and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope in grace,

2:17 Exhort your hearts and confirm you in every good work and word.

Palestine Cry: US Contractors Cited for Syrian Chem Attacks (video) | Veterans Today

...beware of Greeks bearing gifts...

911 is part of the ongoing plan of which this is integral.

Palestine Cry: US Contractors Cited for Syrian Chem Attacks (video) | Veterans Today

* * *

Public Law 99-145 designates the U.S. Army responsible for the destruction of the U.S. chemical weapons stockpile.

NO WHERE WAS THE CIA NOR THE DIA NOR ANY FEDERAL AGENCY GIVEN ANY PERMISSION BY LAW TO STEAL THESE WEAPONS AND COVERTLY USE THEM TO MURDER PEOPLE IN OTHER COUNTRIES AND THEN BLAME LEADERS WHO THEY WANTED TO UNLAWFULLY REMOVE TO PLEASE THEIR ZIONIST AND ILLUMINATI MASTERS. BUT THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAS BEEN GOING ON, SEE: US Contractors Cited for Syrian Chem Attacks (video) | Veterans Today. THIS GARBAGE BEGAN AT AS LEAST AS EARLY AS THE TEN YEAR IRAN IRAQ WAR IN THE 1980'S WHICH WAS SUPPLIED AND MANAGED BY THE CIA ON BOTH SIDES WITH HELP FROM OTHER SUBVERSIVE INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES INCLUDING THE ISRAELI MOSSAD AND SAYERET MATKAL. Saddam Hussein was the CIA's boy and the Shah was as well. There never would have been the balkanization that the Israeli Devils wanted with those two regimes in power. So first the Shah was removed with the help of the French CIA providing cover for the Ayatollah and then a pretended Islamist takeover of Iran by the Ayatollah as if he just defied the whole west to do so. It never would have happened except the West wanted him there. The Vatican and BCCI and number of other Banks and Gold manipulation provided the grease to accomplish this.The surprise in store for Saddam's supporters was that he gave Iraq over to the "conquering Americans" with the help of the Russians. He expected to live in peace in retirement. Whether it was his double or him that was executed by the Jews, he will never be seen again. Iran is the funnel for Israeli Sayan Islamist "rebels" and Anglo American subversive Intelligence saboteurs throughout the whole Middle East. Iran is not the hope of the Arabs nor of the Middle East at all ever. PLO, Hamas, Muslim Brotherhood etc. are all fronts just as much as Al CIAQaeda for Triad Western Zionist Russian-Chinese manipulation of the puppet regimes in the Middle East. Iran supports PLO, Hamas, Muslim Brotherhood etc. under the planning and control of Triad Western Zionist Russian-Chinese manipulation. Syria is just another puppet to knock down after the dog and pony show. There is a saying of ancient Greece concerning the Trojan War, beware of Greeks bearing gifts. It should be updated to beware of the Triad Military Industrial Complex bearing gifts of WMD and Intelligence and Military and Political and Industrial support. ALL of the Arab regimes and others throughout the world have cuckcolded by this.

Next is North Eastern Africa... then Iran.

U.S. ARMY CHEMICAL MATERIALS AGENCY

Public Laws Impacting the U.S. Army Chemical
Weapons Storage and Demilitarization Program.PDF

Congressional oversight guides the execution 
of the U.S. Chemical Weapons Demilitarization 
Program. Annual appropriations of funding and 
specific requirements in the authorization and 
appropriations laws are the most important 
ways in which Congress influences the program. 
This fact sheet summarizes the most important 
provisions in these laws that guide the mission 
to safely eliminate all U.S. chemical warfare 
materiel. To obtain copies of referenced 
legislation please contact the Chemical Materials 
Agency Public Affairs Office or your local 
chemical demilitarization outreach office.

This fact sheet does not address environmental 
laws that regulate chemical weapons treatment. 
To learn about these laws please obtain a copy 
of the fact sheet “Federal Environmental Laws 
Governing Chemical Agent Storage and Disposal.”

Chemical Weapons Demilitarization 
Program Mission and Organization

Congress directed the Secretary of Defense to 
destroy the U.S. chemical weapons stockpile 
in 1985. The Secretary must ensure maximum 
protection of the environment, the general 
public, and the workers involved in chemical 
weapons destruction (Public Law 99-145).

Congress originally designated the Army as the 
organization responsible for safe storage and 
destruction of the U.S. chemical stockpile (Public 
Law 99-145, 1985). The Chemical Materials 
Agency (CMA) is the Army’s management 
organization for the destruction effort. Congress 
later directed that destruction operations at 
the chemical stockpile storage sites in Pueblo, 
Colo. and Blue Grass, Ky. should be managed 
by a separate organization, the Assembled 
Chemical Weapons Alternatives (ACWA) within the 
Department of Defense (Public Law 107-248, 2002).

In 1992, Congress directed the Secretary of the 
Army to plan for destruction of chemical warfare 
materiel not part of the stockpile. Non-stockpile 
chemical materiel includes buried chemical 
weapons, binary chemical weapons, former chemical 
weapons production facilities, chemical weapons 
recovered from ranges and miscellaneous chemical 
warfare materiel (Public Law 102-484, 1992).

When Congress consented to the ratification 
of the Chemical Weapons Convention in 1997 
(Senate Resolution 75, 105th Congress) the 
U.S. Chemical Weapons Demilitarization Program 
became subject to the requirements of this 
treaty. This includes declaration of all chemical 
warfare materiel (CWM), international inspections 
of storage and destruction facilities, as well as 
deadline for destruction of declared CWM. The 
original deadline was April 29, 2007 but it 
has since been extended to April 29, 2012.

Reports to Congress

Congress requires the Secretary of Defense to submit 
an annual report on the status of the chemical 
demilitarization program. The report includes 
information about each chemical weapons stockpile 
site, an accounting of all funds expended by the 
program and an assessment of the stockpiles’ 
current safety and integrity (Public Law 99-
145, 1985, and Public Law 101-510, 1990).

In addition, the Secretary of Defense is required 
to prepare and submit a comprehensive schedule 
for the safe destruction of the chemical stockpile 
on an annual basis until the destruction is 
completed (Public Law 109-364, 2006).

Public Laws Impacting the U.S. Army Chemical
Weapons Storage and Demilitarization Program (continued)



Transportation of Chemical Weapons 
Chemical weapons that are part of the chemical 
stockpile may not be transported across state 
lines. If a chemical warfare item is discovered that 
is not part of the stockpile (i.e., non-stockpile 
materiel), the item may be transported to the 
nearest chemical stockpile storage facility with 
the necessary permits for receiving and storing 
such items (Public Law 103-337, 1994).

No funds may be expended to study the feasibility 
of removing or transporting the chemical weapons 
stockpile from any storage site in the continental 
United States, except for studies needed for 
environmental analysis under the National 
Environmental Policy Act (Public Law 102-172, 1991).

Destruction Facilities

Facilities constructed for chemical stockpile 
destruction generally may not be used for any 
other purpose (PL 99-145). When no longer 
needed for chemical disposal, facilities must be 
cleaned, dismantled, and disposed of in accordance 
with applicable laws and regulations and mutual 
agreements between the Secretary of the Army and 
the Governor of the State in which the facility is 
located (PL 99-145, 1985 and PL 106-65, 1999). 

The U.S. Army may use chemical stockpile disposal 
facilities to destroy non-stockpile chemical materiel 
if the state in which the destruction facility is 
located issues the appropriate permit(s) for the 
destruction of such items at that facility.

Alternative Technologies

In 1992, Congress directed the Army study 
alternatives to the baseline incineration disposal 
technology and implement an alternative disposal 
method at low-volume chemical storage sites 
(Richmond, Ky.; Edgewood, Md.; and Newport, Ind.) if 
the alternative could meet the stockpile elimination 
deadline and was significantly safer than and at 
least as cost-effective as baseline incineration 
(Public Law 102-484, 1992). The Army established 
the Alternative Technologies and Approaches Project, 
which ultimately resulted in the destruction of the 
bulk chemical agent stockpiles at Aberdeen, Md. 
and Newport, Ind. via chemical neutralization. 

In 1996, Congress directed the Secretary of Defense 
to conduct a pilot program to study alternatives to 
the baseline incineration technology for assembled 
chemical munitions and required this effort to 
be managed separately from the Army disposal 
program. This program is known as Assembled 
Chemical Weapons Alternatives (ACWA). All ACWA 
technologies must meet applicable federal and 
state environmental and safety requirements and 
the ACWA Program Manager must submit an annual 
report to Congress (Public Law 104-208, 1996). 

In 1999, Congress ordered that the chemical 
destruction facility at Richmond, Ky., could not 
be constructed until after the ACWA Program 
had demonstrated six alternatives to baseline 
incineration for the destruction of chemical 
weapons (Public Law 106-52, 1999).

In 2000, Congress ordered the Department of 
Defense to consider only incineration and those 
technologies demonstrated before May 1, 2000 
for destruction of chemical weapons at Pueblo 
Chemical Depot (Public Law 106-398, 2000). In 
accordance with Congressional direction, ACWA is 
responsible for managing the chemical stockpile 
destruction efforts at the Kentucky and Colorado 
site (PL 107-248). Both of the planned destruction 
facilities will use alternative technologies.

Emergency Preparedness

To help address the requirement to ensure maximum 
protection of the environment, the general public, 
and the workers during chemical stockpile disposal 
operations, Congress in 1990 authorized the 
Secretary of Defense to make grants to state and 
local governments to assist emergency preparedness 
efforts (Public Law 101-510, 1990).

The Federal Emergency Management Agency, in 
coordination with the Army, helps state and local 
governments develop their individual response 
systems to deal with chemical stockpile emergency 
situations (Public Law 105-261, 1998).

The Army may provide financial assistance to state 
and local chemical stockpile emergency preparedness 



Public Laws Impacting the U.S. Army Chemical 
Weapons Storage and Demilitarization Program (continued)




programs until 180 days after the completion of 
stockpile disposal at a site or the completion of all 
grants and cooperative agreements between the 
Federal Emergency Management Agency and the 
state and local governments responsible for that site, 
whichever occurs first (Public Law 110-181, 2008).

Public Participation

Congress directed the establishment of Citizen’s 
Advisory Commissions specifically for low-volume 
chemical stockpile storage sites (Richmond, Ky.; 
Edgewood, Md.; and Newport, Ind.) and for all other 
sites upon request from the governor of the state 
in which the site is located. Commissions have 
9 members, including seven governor-appointed 
citizens who live in areas affected by destruction 
operations and two state government representatives 
with direct responsibilities related to the chemical 
demilitarization program (Public Law 102-484, 
1992). An Army representative attends each 
Commission meeting (Public Law 102-484, 1992). 
The Citizens’ Advisory Commissions must meet at 
least twice a year (Public Law 103-484, 1992). 
Commissions will be terminated upon completion 
of closure of the chemical destruction facility at 
their respective storage site or upon request of 
the Governor of the commission’s state, whichever 
occurs first (Public Law 110-181, 2008).

Conclusion

Congressional oversight continues to guide the 
execution of the chemical demilitarization program. 
CMA and ACWA are working with Congress to carry 
out the destruction effort in an effective and 
safe manner. 

This fact sheet will be updated periodically as 
legislative requirements change.

History of U.S. Chemical Weapons Elimination

History of U.S. Chemical Weapons 
Elimination.PDF

From World War I to 1968, the United States
produced chemical weapons as a deterrent
against use of similar weapons by other
countries. Though never used in battle,
these U.S.weapons are now obsolete and
deteriorating with age. The U.S. national
stockpile of lethal chemical warfare agents
primarily involves six chemicals:

GA—Tabun or ethyl N,N-dimethyl ••
phosphoroamidocyanidate,
CAS 77-81-6

GB—Sarin or isopropyl ••
methylphosphonofluoridate,
CAS 107-44-8

H, HD, HT—Sulfur mustard, bis-(2-chloroethyl)sulfide, or di-2-chloroethyl sulfide (HD), CAS 505-••
60-2; bis(2-chloroethylthioethyl) ether (HT), CAS 63918-89-8

L—Lewisite or dichloro 2-chlorovinylarsine, CAS 541-25-3••

VX—O-ethyl-S-(2-diisopropylaminoethyl)-methyl phosphonothiolate, CAS 50782-69-9••

Congress Mandates Destruction of Outdated Chemical Weapons

In 1985, the U.S. Congress mandated that the Department
of Defense be responsible for establishing a Chemical and
Biological Defense (CDB) program, U.S. Code Title 50, Sections
1521 through 153, provided the legal foundation for chemical
weapons disposal activities.

The Department of Defense was also responsible for ensuring
maximum protection of the environment and the general
public, as well as workers involved in chemical weapons
destruction (Public Law 99-145, 1985 and U.S. Code 50,
Section 1521):

U.S. Signs International Chemical
Weapons Convention Treaty

In 1997, the United States ratified the United Nations
International Chemical Weapons Convention treaty.
By participating in the treaty, the United States
agreed to destroy its stockpile of aging chemical
weapons—principally mustard agent and nerve
agents—by April 29, 2007. However, the final
destruction deadline was extended to April 29, 2012,
at the Eleventh Session of the Conference of the
States Parties to the Chemical Weapons Convention
at The Hague on December 8, 2006.

The CDC chemical weapons elimination team’s
mission is to protect public health and safety by providing oversight and guidance to the U.S.
Army’s chemical warfare materiel demilitarization program by reviewing, advising, and making
recommendations on the Army’s plans to destroy stockpile and nonstockpile chemical weapons. This
mission is mandated by Public Laws 91-121, 91-441, and 99-145.

Today, the U.S. Army is recognized as a world leader in international chemical weapons elimination
efforts. Over a decade of experience has demonstrated that these weapons can be destroyed safely,
without harm to employees, to the community, or to the environment.

Disposal of Stockpile and Nonstockpile
Chemical Warfare Agents

Years ago, the Department of Defense stored
chemical warfare agents, either in bulk containers
or as assembled munitions, at locations within the
continental United States. The remainder of the
stockpile was transferred to Johnston Atoll, a small
remote island in the Pacific Ocean (Southwest of the
Hawaiian Islands). Note that all chemical warfare agent
materials previously stored on Johnston Atoll now
have been destroyed.

Nonstockpile chemical warfare materiel includes
former chemical weapons production facilities;
recovered chemical weapons, chemical samples, and
binary chemical weapons; and miscellaneous equipment,
such as empty aerial spray tanks.
