Racism, Riots and the Role of the Media & Revolution

1. RACISM, RIOTS and the ROLE of the
MEDIA and REVOLUTION
By Dr. Peter Hammond

4. “Destructive forces are at work in the city;
threats and lies never leave its streets.”
Psalm 55:11

5. Rioters Should Not Be Confused with Protestors
How can violent destructive riots be misrepresented as “protests”?

6. One news headline: “Protestors hurled Rocks and
Molotov Cocktails at Police in Philadelphia!”
Protests by definition are peaceful.

7. Violence and protests are mutually exclusive. Rioters throwing
rocks and “Molotov cocktails” should not by any stretch of the
imagination, be misconstrued as “protestors.”

8. Fuel Bombs are Weapons of War not Placards
Molotov cocktails (also known as petrol bombs, gasoline bombs,
fire bombs, or the poor man’s grenade) were first designed and
named by the Finnish defenders fighting the Soviet Red Army
invasion in the 1939-1940 Winter War.

11. The term “Molotov cocktail” was a pejorative reference to the
Soviet foreign minister, Vyacheslav Molotov.

12. The Finns named their napalm-like mixture of petrol, alcohol, with
some motor oil added, ignited by a burning cloth/wick held in
place by the narrow neck of a glass bottle after the communist
deceiver Molotov.

13. The wick was usually soaked in alcohol, or kerosene, then the
bottle was hurled at a Soviet tank, or other Red Army vehicle.

14. When the bottle smashed on impact the ensuing cloud of fuel
droplets and vapour ignited by the attached burning wick, or rag,
caused an immediate fireball followed by spreading flames of the
remainder of the ignited fuel.

15. Mocking
Molotov’s
Marxist
Propaganda
The origin of the
name came from
the Communist
propaganda which
Soviet minister
Molotov espoused
during
the Winter War,

16. Soviet minister
Molotov declared
that the Soviet
bombing missions
over Finland were
actually
“airborne
humanitarian
food deliveries”
for their “starving
neighbours!”

17. Therefore, the Finns, sarcastically referred to Soviet cluster
bombs as “Molotov bread baskets”

18. and their hand-held bottle firebombs to attack Soviet tanks
a “Molotov cocktail” as a drink to go with his “humanitarian food
parcels.”

19. The Finnish Origin of the Weapon and Choice
of Name should Expose the Hypocrisy
The historic origin of both the term Molotov cocktail and this
napalm-like weapon of war, should shed some light on the
disinformation being broadcast about “mostly peaceful protestors!”

23. Devastation Exposes Deceit
Reportedly, at least 145 cities across the United States of America
have been ravaged by violent riots, looting and arson attacks.

26. Literally thousands of businesses have
been looted, damaged or destroyed by
rioters, arsonists and looters.

35. Fires were set in the historic St. John’s Episcopal Church on
Lafayette Park in front of the White House.

36. More than 50 secret service agents in Washington D.C. were
injured trying to protect the President from riotous mobs.
Facts can really ruin a good media narrative.

37. Well Organised “Spontaneous” Riots
With literally thousands of businesses devastated and Billions of
Dollars’ worth of damage and losses across the United States, the
reported narrative of “spontaneous rage” at “police brutality”
seems tenuous.

38. Initial reports indicate that there is evidence of
orchestration behind the scenes. The sinister Antifa
Terrorist movement plainly played a pivotal role.

39. Vladimir Lenin spoke of
“constructive chaos”
to advance Revolutionary goals.

40. The issue focused on is seldom the real concern.
Their motivation is normally
the furthering of the revolution
by discrediting all resistance.

41. As the National Guard deployed in 23 States and curfews were
declared in many cities, the question needs to be asked; What
role has the mainstream mass media played in fanning the flames
and pouring fuel on the fires of violent discontent?

42. Selective Outrage
The zoom lens of selective reporting ignores the wide-angle lens
of context. Frequently the mainstream mass media misses the big
picture.

43. Recognise that the BBC (Bolshevik Broadcasting Corporation),
CNN (Clinton News Network), Time (Slime) Magazine, Newspeak
and Useless News and World Report are not where one can
expect fair, balanced and honest reporting.

45. There seems to be a pattern of ignoring terrible atrocities by
Marxist Revolutionaries and the ongoing persecution of Christians
in Islamic lands. “Whoever says to the guilty, ‘You are
innocent,’ will be cursed by peoples and denounced by
nations.” Proverbs 24:24

46. Atrocities that Do Not Make the News
As a Missionary to persecuted churches for most of the last 40
years, I have walked and worked In the Killing Fields of
Mozambique, documenting the burning of Bibles, destruction of
churches and massacres of Christians by the Marxist FRELIMO
dictatorship.

47. I have served suffering Christians in MPLA controlled Marxist
Angola, documenting the destruction of churches,

48. burning of Bibles and murdering of ministers
by communist Cuban troops

49. and the Marxist MPLA forces.

50. In Rwanda, I walked knee high and sometimes waist deep in
corpses, in churches, interviewing the survivors of the Rwandan
Genocide and documenting in my book, Holocaust in Rwanda,
the disgraceful roles of the United Nations, the French and Clinton
governments, liberal WCC affiliated church leaders and the
manipulation of the news media.

51. In Rwanda, I walked knee high and sometimes waist deep in
corpses, in churches, interviewing the survivors of the Rwandan
Genocide and documenting in my book, Holocaust in Rwanda,
the disgraceful roles of the United Nations, the French and Clinton
governments, liberal WCC affiliated church leaders and the
manipulation of the news media.

52. Hidden Holocausts & Forgotten Wars
In Sudan, I was eyewitness to the scorched earth, Islamic Jihad
genocidal war waged against Christians of South Sudan and the
Nuba Mountains.

53. This was documented in
Faith Under Fire in Sudan
book and in the
Sudan: The Hidden
Holocaust
and Terrorism and
Persecution films.

54. and in the
Sudan: The Hidden Holocaust
and Terrorism and Persecution films.

55. Strangely, the secular mass media took little interest in the plight
of millions of Christians persecuted in communist and Muslim
lands in Africa and Asia.

56. Apparently not all Black lives matter to CNN.

63. Only Biblical Christianity offers a rational basis for opposing racism and
for pursuing justice. Equality before the Law is a Biblical principle:

64. “The community is
to have the same
rules for you and
for the alien living
among you;
this is a lasting
ordinance for the
generations to
come.
A
Common Law
Numbers 15:15-16

65. You and the alien shall be the same before the Lord.
The same laws and regulations will apply both to
you and to the alien living among you.”
Numbers 15:15-16

66. “Do not pervert justice; do not show partiality to the poor or
favouritism to the great, but judge your neighbour fairly.”
Leviticus 19:15
Equity in Law

67. “There is neither
Jew nor Greek,
slave nor free,
male nor female,
for you are all one
in Christ Jesus.”
Galatians 3:28
Unity in Christ

68. “For He Himself is our peace Who has made the two one and has
destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility.” Ephesians 2:14
Removing Enmity

69. “From one man He made every nation of men…” Acts 17:26
Creation

70. “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation;
the old has gone, the new has come!
A Ministry of Reconciliation

71. All this is from God who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and
gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the
world to Himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them.

72. And He has committed to us the message of reconciliation.”
2 Corinthians 5:17-19

73. “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and
with all your mind and with all your strength…love your neighbour as
yourself.” Mark 12:30-31
The Greatest Commandment

76. There are Positive Practical and
Constructive Ways to Respond to Abuse
Although I have experienced artillery, rocket and aerial
bombardments at churches I was ministering in,

77. as well as being arrested, abused and incarcerated in communist
prisons, I never responded to the atrocities I witnessed,

78. or to the abuse I endured, by advocating, or participating in,
violence, or terrorism.

79. No, that is not how Christians respond. I wrote books, helped
produce films, gave presentations at churches and conferences,
was interviewed on radio and TV programmes,

80. testified at International Human Rights conventions and to
members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in
Washington D.C and to members of the British Foreign Office in
London.

81. It is Better to Light a Candle
than to Curse the Darkness
It is important to pray the Psalms, to take injustices directly to God
and seek His intervention. To pray against evil. To shine the light
of research and investigation on the dark dealings of the
persecutors of the Church and those guilty of atrocities.

82. To speak up for those who cannot
speak for themselves.

83. To be a voice for the voiceless.

84. To do something positive

85. and constructive to help build a better future

86. for families,
for the Faith and for freedom.

87. Truth Does Not Fear Investigation
It is important that we do not rely on only one source of
information for our news and views on the world.

88. We need discernment to understand the times

89. and to know what Gods people should do.
We need to evaluate everything in the light of God’s Word
and seek to be positive, practical and solution focussed.

90. A Shocking Contrast
How is it possible that so
much police energy was
focused on arresting
hairdressers, surfers,
joggers and
people walking their dogs

91. and yet when St. Pauls, Minnesota erupted in
violence the police chief evacuated his personnel
and allowed rioters to occupy, vandalise, loot and
torch the central police station?

92. So, we learned that if you attempt to open your business
during a lockdown, you could be arrested. But if you
looted a business last week, the police left you alone!

93. People exercising, running, or surfing were arrested, but those
throwing rocks and Molotov cocktails were unimpeded by police
action at St. Paul’s, Minnesota.

94. but those throwing rocks and Molotov
cocktails were unimpeded by police
action at St. Paul’s, Minnesota.

95. A Culture of Compulsion and Coercion
The excessive state overreaction enforcing a culture of
compulsion and coercion during the COVID-19 Lockdown
provides a stark contrast to the hands-off and withdraw approach
of police in all too many cities, torn by violence, arson and looting.

96. The Curse of Centralisation and
Globalisation
All of this provides another vivid example of the dangers of
centralisation and the advantages of decentralisation.

97. The Swiss model of decentralisation is far better

98. than the Tower of Babel, Egyptian pyramid, Nineveh,
centralisation, top-down approach to government.

99. Revelation 13 warns us of the anti-Christ goal of a one-world
government, a one-world religious movement and a one-world
economic system.

100. Recent history demonstrates the dangers of the United Nations,
World Health Organisation, European Union and other groups
working for a New World Order.

101. Globalism is such a threat that in a matter of weeks, 3.5 Billion
people on the planet were in some form of government enforced
lockdown.

102. Decentralisation is the Solution to the
Chaos that Threatens Civilisation
Decentralisation is the answer. When local municipalities control
their own local police force, whose members are drawn from that
local municipality, the safeguards are far more effective.

103. Local police,
who are
recruited from
that community
and
Answerable
to the local
municipality
will not abuse
their friends
or neighbours,

104. nor will they withdraw, or stand idly by, while their
friends, family and neighbours’ businesses and
properties are threatened, looted and burned.

106. Resist Globalisation and Centralisation
The global Lockdown and the riots devastating so many cities
around the States, are just some of the results of globalism.

107. Centralisation and the culture of compulsion and coercion were
warned about in Revelation 13 and in George Orwell’s Animal
Farm and 1984.

108. George Orwell’s dystopian novel, 1984,
now seems ominously prophetic.
Following the Revolutionary Herd

109. First published in 1949, Orwell’s 1984 envisaged
a future with omnipresent government surveillance

110. and public manipulation through state schools,
the news media,
entertainment industry,

111. historic revisionism, intimidation and social engineering.

112. All this no longer looks like a joke.

113. Orwell predicted the manipulation of language into newspeak,
with thought crimes punished by thought police.
Subverting Freedom of Thought

115. The Ministry of Peace ensures perpetual war.

116. The Ministry of Truth uses lies and propaganda

117. to distort all information in news, entertainment,
education and the arts.

119. The Ministry of Plenty controls
rationing and ensures starvation.

120. The Ministry of Love tortures, terrifies
and crushes all dissent and resistance.

122. The Ministry of Love would also orchestrate two minutes hate
and hate week campaigns to distract and channel the anger and
frustration of the masses towards a real, or imagined, enemy.
Mobilising Hate
in the Name of Love

123. The Ministry of Truth would also vaporise, or expunge,
from the public record, opponents of the state
which could not be debated with, or argued, against.
Memory Holes

124. These would become un-persons
who would disappear down the memory hole.

125. History itself would need to be re-written in order to accord with
the current policy of the ruling political party

127. (As Karl Marx declared:
“The first battlefield is the rewriting of History”).

130. “While they promise them liberty, they themselves
are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is
overcome, by him also he is brought into bondage.”
2 Peter 2:19.

131. “Who will rise up
for Me
against the evildoers?
Who will stand up
for Me
against the workers
of iniquity?”
Psalm 94:16

133. We need to reject globalisation, centralisation, disinformation,
the Revolution and their agenda and work for decentralisation,
Reformation, praying for Revival.

142. “Anyone who does not take his cross and follow Me is not
worthy of Me.” Matthew 10:38
He who would valiant be
‘gainst all disaster,
let him in constancy,
follow the Master.
There’s no discouragement
shall make him once relent,
his first avowed intent to be a Pilgrim.
He who would Valiant be

143. 2:Who so beset him round with dismal stories,
do but themselves confound – his strength the more is.
No foes shall stay his might; though he with giants fight,
he will make good his right to be a pilgrim.

144. 3:Since, Lord, Thou dost defend us with Thy Spirit,
we know we at the end shall life inherit.
Then, fancies, flee away! I’ll fear not what men say,
I’ll labour night and day to be a pilgrim.
