Numbers 10:9

So Moses spoke to the people, saying, "Arm some of yourselves for war, and let them go against the Midianites to take vengeance for the LORD on Midian. A thousand from each tribe of all the tribes of Israel you shall send to the war." So there were recruited from the divisions of Israel one thousand from [each] tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.

Then Moses sent them to the war, one thousand from [each] tribe; he sent them to the war with Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, with the holy articles and the signal trumpets in his hand. And they warred against the Midianites, just as the LORD commanded Moses, and they killed all the males. They killed the kings of Midian with [the rest of] those who were killed--Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. Balaam the son of Beor they also killed with the sword. . . But Moses was angry with the officers of the army, [with] the captains over thousands and captains over hundreds, who had come from the battle. . . And levy a tribute for the LORD on the men of war who went out to battle: one of every five hundred of the persons, the cattle, the donkeys, and the sheep. . . The booty remaining from the plunder, which the men of war had taken, was six hundred and seventy-five thousand sheep...

Then the officers who [were] over thousands of the army, the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, came near to Moses; and they said to Moses, "Your servants have taken a count of the men of war who [are] under our command, and not a man of us is missing. . . (The men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.)

Revelation 19:11, 19

And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
Revelation 12:7-11



Secrets of the military

See our frequently asked questions about the military and war.

I have no respect for the United States military. Most soldiers do not even recognize how they have been betrayed by our government. They are given hundreds of mind-altering drugs and a select number of these soldiers are being indwelt with demonic possession, then they walk around with great arrogance and have no clue to what is happening to them. The government is making "loonies" out of them by feeding them a bunch of drugs that is causing them to lose their minds. If you are a Christian and in the military, you need to get yourself out — out of the governments demonic traps.

It seems this film has upset the USAF and a small group of pentagon thugs. I have been contacted by a USAF Lt. Col. Roger Helbig to take this film down. He has begun with trying to claim that all those that made this film are NeoNazis (Good Grief... this is a shabby Pentagon cover-up attempt if I ever saw it) and that I need to "take it down off the net." Wow! Okay, so I decided to do a search on this guy to see if he has any credibility... I FOUND A LOT OF INFO ABOUT THIS MAN; ALL NEGATIVE. The first quote here is actually a reply to Lt. Col Roger Helbig from Doug Rokke: "LTC Roger Helbig, United States Air Force: A Bully Pushing Around Civilians -- Air Force Colonel Abuses American Citizens over Uranium Weapons Coverup" The link to this page is: http://www.axisoflogic.com/cgi-bin/exec/view.pl?archive=137&num=16798 Other quotes from other pages are as follows with their page links after each quote): "They've sent Helbig after me" http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/cgi-bin/blogs/voices.php/2007/02/16/they_ve_sent_helbig_after_me "The Pentagon bullies: Meet Roger Helbig" http://aotearoaawiderperspective.wordpress.com/2008/07/18/the-pentagon-bullies-meet-roger-helbig/ "Ace pushes Helbig's buttons" http://acehoffman.blogspot.com/2008/05/ace-pushes-helbigs-buttons.htm What you don't know about your government could kill you... Department of Defense documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act expose the horrific underworld of the disposable army mentality and the government funded experimentation upon US citizens conducted without their knowledge or consent. -video author

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feelings which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight: nothing he cares about more than his own personal safety: is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions and blood of better men than himself."
John Stuart Mill
