(post 14)
Continuing with "there is much to suggest that the Masons planned the September 11 disaster and not Obama bin Laden", we should look again at words; some particular words. Besides the many "oo"words that connect with the year 2001, there are other words which gives clues to who knew of and therefore who planned the September 11 attacks. The letter/number code which could be called a form of gematria in the English language becomes important here. The relevant code being the simple "a" is 1, "b" is 2 type, continuing on through the alphabet. The word "ski" therefore gives the code number 1911919. One can read the entry in the Oxford English Dictionary that indicates that for the English word, a selection was made from a variety of Norwegian spellings for the activity. This was done around the year 1900. If one takes a pair of skis and plants them in the snow, side by side in an upright position, they resemble twin towers which have began to collapse at the top. Some Masons, it appears, noticed this and made the spelling arrangement for the English language in keeping with their cultural signing practice.

A similar spelling interference has been made with the American word "ass". The English slang word from this American word derives is "arse", referring to a region of the human anatomy. But the number code for "arse" is 118195. The Masons, it seems, did not want this slang word, which can be used as a term of abuse, or as a kind of intensifier, to have this number code which has 118 in it. To them, it is too close to "Ark", giving 11811 as the number code. The change to "ass", gives a number code of 11919, more to their liking for this word meaning. The fact that this word has been much heard, as an intensifier, in the American entertainment media in the past several years ["Move your ass!", and the like], goes some way to confirm that there has been deliberation in this change.

The word "like", gives a number code of 129115, the "-ik-" in the middle giving the code 911. This word "like", I think most people would agree, has become an overused word in southern California, probably because of it value to the Masons as a Masonic Sign of the cultural control type. The habit of overusing this word then having been taken up by others.

The word "ask", gives a number code of 11911. In some areas this word has become, according to reports, an indicator of a regional or ethnic accent, especially among certain youth groups, by way of the occurrence of a pronunciation fault which results in the word being pronounced "aks". It is not merely one of many pronunciation aspects that produce this accent, but, I think, the most prominent. This is not likely to be a coincidence. The fact that the word "ask" gives that noteworthy code number suggests deliberation again. It seems likely that the media is once again involved; creating the perception of a situation where this fault is wide spread and then, perhaps, it has taken hold in actuality.

The word "kiss", is another word that has been dealt with. The number code is 1191919. The Masons must not have been happy with this word having what they saw as a negative number code. To rectify the situation they appear to have come up with the phrase "French kiss", or at least strongly latched on to it. The code number for "French",is 51851438, so one could say that the final 8, here makes a liaison [a linguistic term meaning to join two words in speech] with the number for "kiss", giving 81191919. The first three digits her being 811, so the idea is conveyed that the word "kiss" does not carry a negative destiny or association concerning the September 11 attacks.

Another two word phrase under suspicion is the phrase "I say", which one may have heard in old movies set in England. It gives the code number 9 19125. Besides the 9 191 being suggestive of 911, the 25 is suggestive of "two bits", and then of the Twin Towers. Besides the code number it is the fact that the words "I say", do not add anything to a conversation that brings this phrase under suspicion of being a Masonic code phrase.

If we turn to the idea of zeruf in the English language, of which the "oo" words in a previous post could be said to be an example, the attention is drawn to the "-ll". If one makes a list of the five vowels down a page and then one puts "-ll" on the end of each vowel, then one can go through the alphabet trying to fit each letter at the front of each vowel and thus compile a list of words with four letters that end in "-ll". If one does this one might see significance in some of the words. The words that catch my attention here, are"fall","pall","tall","wall","hell","kill","mill","will", and "toll". Three other words I would add to this list are "shell", "hollow", and "collapse". All of these words seem to be words that might be used in a discussion of the September 11 disaster, except the word "mill". The "-ll" in these words appears to be the result of Masonic moulding [American:molding] of the English language spelling of these words, the "-ll" representing what would become known as the Twin Towers. The word "mill" gives the clue that it was the Masons who did this moulding, the millstone being a secret symbol of the Masons. The word "shell", is of significance because it is a common metaphor to describe something else that is hollow. In the 1920 German film Der Golem [discussed in the previous post], shell imagery is twice used in the shots of the interior of Rabbi Loew's house. The stairs of the building are made to look shell like, and also the rabbi's study alcove has a shell like structure. The suggestion seems to be that the rabbi's house is a shell, metaphorically, and it does collapse at the end of the film.

Looking up all these "-ll" words in the Oxford English Dictionary does not give a clearly consistent picture supporting my argument on this point, but three important words, "tall","wall", and "mill", do have listings that suggest the point of change from a single "l". With "tall",and "mill", it is suggested that it was the writer Chaucer who made the change in 1374. With "wall", the entry says '900 Baeda's Hist "weal" 1000 Aelfric Exod. "weallas"'. So it may be that there was a thousand years of meditation upon the September 11 conspiracy.

In the Spanish and French languages one can note the silent pronunciation of the "-ll-". The presence of the "-ll-" in writing and their absence in speech may have been due to a Masonic interference, to symbolise the building of twin towers and their later destruction.

There are other films that provide clues to the conspiracy.The 1956 film The Ten Commandments made by Paramount Pictures depicts the pillars of fire from the book of Exodus in the Bible, and out of one of the pillars a ball of fire is emitted which then carves out the Ten Commandments from the rock of Mount Sinai. Seeing this film image in our present time [post- 2001], I am very much reminded of the fireball emitted by the aftermath of the second strike on the Twin Towers. The September 11 conspiracy sees to have borrowed this image to create the spectacle that was seen in New York and in the media. Besides this direct connection it could also be said that the two images are connected by the tetragrammaton. According to Wester's International Dictionary, the "tetra-grammaton" was the mystic number four, which was often symbolised to represent the Deity, whose name was expressed by four letters among some ancient nations. In Judaism, four Hebrew letters are used to represent the name of God. These four Hebrew letters together, it could be said, create a basic pictograph of two tablets that are cracked and have between them a lit candle, and on the upper right side of the tablet on the right, something striking the tablet. This, the tetragrammaton, as the word is sometimes called, was the subject of one of Abraham Abulafia's books, Or ha-Sekhel [see Abulafia, Abraham Ben Sammuel in the Encyclopedia Judaica, 1st Edition.]

Probably the strongest image one gets from this Hebrew letter combination is the destruction of the tablets given to Moses, such as that depicted in the 1956 film after Moses saw the Israelites worshipping the Golden Calf. From his position at the base of Mount Sinai, Moses throws the tablets down and as they fall, lightning comes down and creates fire, and mayhem for the worshippers of the Golden Calf. The tetragrammmaton can also be seen in the way the tablets were created in the film, with a ball of fire coming out of a pillar of fire. The ball of fire strikes the rock of the mountain and carves out the tablets. And the tetragrammaton can also be seen in the image of the Twin Towers on September 11. This, the tetragrammaton, remember, connects with the words "I AM", in English translations of the bible, and "I AM" gives the code number 9113.

Another film that appears to provide an idea for the September 11 conspiracy is the 1943 film Double Indemnity, made by Paramount Pictures. In this film there is symbolic representation of the tetragrammaton in the lighting of a match which, when lit, is held between the knuckes of the middle finger and the ring finger. In the film the match arrives in this position very neatly achieved in one smooth action through film editing. It would be very difficult to do it in real life without the assistance of one's other hand. After arriving in its position between the knuckles it is then held to a cigarette. The cigarette completes the symbolic representation of the tetragrammaton. [Something very similar to this has been seen before. The "hand of glory", was a severed hand of a hanged murderer, once used as a charm in lack magic spells and was believed to aid burglars in breaking into homes and buildings. The hand, after it was preserved was fitted with candles between the fingers or perhaps just one candle between the middle and ring fingers. See The Encyclopedia of Witches and Witchcraft by Rosemary Ellen Guiley, pages 150-151.] In the context of the film the symbol of the tetragrammaton seems to indict that there is a Masonic connection between the two male characters who find themselves together at the end of the film, one being in very deep trouble, and the other appearing to offer acceptance of some degree, not only by lighting the cigarette of the one in trouble but by doing the match holding tetragrammaton symbol, which was done for him earlier in the film by the one who is here at the end, in trouble.

But there appears to be also a message for Masonic audience members that operates outside the context of the film. The tetragrammaton lets them know that some Masonic plan or action is being advanced with this film. One might well say that this is the main purpose of the presence of this symbol as the meaning of the symbol is not revealed in the film. The plan that is be advanced or at least meditated upon, is the September 11 conspiracy, and what is being put

forward is the idea of substitution, unless I'm mistaken. I don't think I am. In the film substitution is used in a murder plot to deceive the authorities about what has happened. The presence of the tetragrammaton symbol suggests [to me] that it is or has also being put forward for the September 11 conspiracy, with the result, on the day of the attack disaster, being the substitution of the two planes, with two other planes. Close examination of the documentary footage and still photographs in books shows that there was substitution of the planes; the planes that eventually made contact having smaller engines that were located closer to the fuselage of the planes, giving greater manoeurability. One can see that this is so from the 2001 documentary 9/11 made by Jules and Gedeon Naudet and James Hanlon, which shows one of the engines crashed on the ground. Even allowing for the fact that the exterior metal sheeting of the engine has been torn away, one can clearly see that the engine is not large enough to be the engine of a continent-crossing commercial passenger plane.

It is also possible to read some code in the title Double Indemnity. That being the "-ity" at the end of "Indemnity". The code number for the "-ity", is 92025. So, it could be said, the 9 represents 911, the 20 represents 2001, and the 25 represents "two bits", which in turn represents "twin towers".

There is one note that I should add about this film Double Indemnity, and that is that the image of the match between the knuckles of the middle finger and the ring finger, being only a detail of the whole picture, can be easily manipulated by the digital microchip technology that is embedded in the television sets and DVD players made in several countries. The image that one sees may be of a match that is held in the ordinary way, between thumb and index finger. This was the way it was for me when I watched the film for a second time not so long ago, after the match had been held tetragrammaton style on the first viewing. With hurdles like this being thrown in my way, I have no doubt that it was kabbalist-Masons who planned and executed the September 11 disaster conspiracy.

At this point I want to mention two more Masonic signs of general interest, the lead in being the mention of the cigarette. Both of this signs connect with the fictional spy character James Bond. The first of these signs consists of a rather formatted cough, usually just two coughs together and often louder than normal. The connection to James Bond is by way of the author's name Ian Flemming. From "Flemming", someone went to the word "phlegm", mucus that can build up in the lungs or throat with various medical conditions. From "phlegm", they hit upon using a cough as a Masonic sign, that suggests to them the word "bond", and then to the Masonic concept of people "bonding" to them.

The second sign connects firstly to Benjamin Franklin. He invented bifocal glasses, which assist the sight of those who need them, both with reading and in seeing things at a further distance. For reading purposes one lets the bifocals hang down one's nose and one looks through the upper lenses. To see at longer distances one pushes the glasses up on the nose so that the lower lenses are in front of one's eyes. Because Benjamin Franklin was a noted Mason , they [the Masons] introduced a sign related to this. A person who wears standard glasses can lift them up a bit from their normal position and then set them back down as a Masonic sign. The connection to James Bond is a scene in the 1963 film From Russia with Love, in which James Bond holds a pair of dark glasses in his hand, and makes a movement with them as a signal. Once again the Masonic sign suggests the word "bond", to those who can read it. A variation with this sign has been used where greater operational cover is required. Politicians who wear glasses who always adjust them before speaking in a television interview should be suspected of doing this as a Masonic sign. Such politicians might have stopped doing this recently. Confirmation of whether it is a Masonic sign or not can be sought by assessing their political policies, questioning whether they preference the Masonic agenda and whether they are consistent with what, during their political campaign, was suggested would be their course of action in office.

For the sake of neatness I am going to close the brackets I opened several posts back.)

There are some books which also reveal that those who produced them had some knowledge of the September 11 attack plan before it was put into effect. The novel Finnegan's Wake by James Joyce is a novel that is notorious for having obscure references that challenge the reader. On pages 4-5 is this:

his roundhead staple of their days to rise in undress maisonry upstanded (joygrantit!), a waalworth of a skyerscape of most eyeful hoyth entowerly, erigenating from next to nothing and celescalating the himals and all, hierarchitectitiptitoploftical, with a burning bush abob its baubletop

and on page 261


Terror of the noonstruck by day, cryptogam of each nightly
bridable. But, to speak broken heaven talk, is he? Who is he?
Whose is he? Why is he? How much is he? Which is he? When
is he? Where is he?


and on page 628, the last page


Save my from those therrble prongs. Two more.


Sixty and more years later it can be seen that these references are to what would happen to twin towers that would be built in New York.

In the book The Shifting Point by theatre director Peter Brook, the final chapter is titled "As the story goes. . . . . .". Opposite the chapters first page is a photograph of part of a scene from one of Brook's performances (as director) of the Mahabharata (as the list of illustrations at the front of the book tells us). The photograph shows a man holding a large dish or something like a dish. The figure is in heavy shadow. From the dish arises smoke or the heavy "fog", that can be produced for theatrical purposes. The effect in the photograph is of a line of smoke cutting across the figure at chest height and then drifting upwards to the side of the figure. To the right side of the picture it appears that another figure or perhaps a shadow of the main visible figure is present, but only partially shown in the photograph. If there was another similar figure of shadow of the prominantly shown figure as it seems, it would have been suggestive of the plan for the destruction of the Twin Towers.

I went looking for codes in this chapter. The first three letters of "As the story goes. . . . . .",
-a s t- gives the number code 11920, which is something. But it is the word on which most of the chapter focuses -"interest"- that appears to be the main masonic code word, as it is another word which has a code number, 9142051851920, from which can be extracted and arranged the digits 911 2001.

After trying hard to establish the idea that he is interested in and sensitive to other cultures of the world, Brook throws in something of a reversal on page 236 when he writes


We do not only celebrate good things in the popular sense of
sense of the term. We celebrate joy, sexual exictement, and
all forms of pleasure; but also as an individual or as a member
of a community through our cultures, we celebrate violence,
despair, anxiety and destruction.

He follows this two pages later with


But this place can only be assumed by what to me is the
"third culture" not the one that carries a name or a definition,
but which is wild, out-of-hand, which, in a way could be likened
to the Third World - something that for the rest of the world is
dynamic, unruly, which demands endless adjustments, in a
relationship that can never be permanent.


It seems clear that Brook was meditating on the art of war when he wrote these lines, and was making his contribution to the conspiracy. A clue to who it was he showed alligence to is contained in the title of the book, The Shifting Point, which is suggestive of one point of a compass as it moves in a circular path around the point which stays fixed.

A third book that contain a clue to the September 11 disaster is A Man of Honor: The Autobiography of Joseph Bonanno. In the pages of photographs there are two photographs next to each other that show Bonanno celebrating with tiered cakes. The one on the left is the six level cake for the wedding of Joseph Bonanno's son. The six levels make for a very tall cake,evocative of a skyscraper. On the righr side of the page is the cake for the 25th anniversary of the elder Bonannos' wedding. This cake had only for levels and is evocative of what the other cake would look like if it collapsed. After creating that image in the mind , it seems natural to then think of the collapse of the Twin Towers. It is surely a deliberate sign, just as many of the other photographs in the book show Masonic hand signs to those who look closely. With the photos of the cakes are captions that offer some number code. On the left the is "Salvatore and Rosalie's wedding reception at the Hotel Astor, New York City, August 19,1956". The word
Astor gives the number code 119201514. The first six of these digits being the important ones. On the right, the caption is "Our 25th wedding aniversary reception at Santa Rita Hotel, Tucson, February, 1957." The word "Santa" gives the code number 19114201. Having a firgure like Joseph Bonanno in on the September 11 conspiracy would have been very useful to the Masons, as he was for many years, the head of one of the five New York mafia "families", as they call them. It seems likely that Bonanno acted as a golem figure, enforcing Masonic discipline during the construction of the Twin Towers.

If we move closer to the time of the September 11 attack looking for more signs of awareness of the plan, some of the major motion pictures again show the marks. In the 1998 film Titanic there were some things going on. This film was financed by 20th Cetury Fox and Paramount Pictures.

The first words of the film are "13 metres". This appears to be a Masonic sign to start things off and so gives an indication of the extent and perceived importance of the Masonic involvement. The "m" in "metres", can be converted to number code to give 1313, or the 13 in "13 metres" can be reverse coded, let's say, to give "mm". Both of these arrangements have been used as Masonic signs.

The Masonic signifigance of the number 13 seems to derive from the date on which the Knights Templar were disbanded in an extensive ,coordinated operation. The repetition of the number 13 as a Masonic sign probably derives from the back of the U.S. one dollar bill which repeated the number 13 in insignia form because there were 13 colonies of European settlement at the time of the signing of the Declaration of Independance. The olives on the olive branch, forexample, are thirteen in number. There usually is something circular or roughly circular where the "mm" code is used also. With this I am thinking firstly of the so-called "pills"(pilole) on the Medeci crest, the powerful family of the Italian Renaissance, which preceded the U.S. one dollar bill but perhaps established this code pattern. There was also the case of the Minutemen, the militia of the American revolution who were to be ready "at a minute's notice". Then there was the gangster Machine-gun Jack McGurn, one of Al Capone's gang, the bullets once again being the roughly circular item. In the film Titanic, the portholes of the ship are the accompanying circular item.

The Masonic work that was going on with this film related to its being a rousing and emotioal story. This was inherent in the story, but it appears that they were not satified with an ordinary level of cultural reinforcement with this film. They wanted more (it appears). What might normally be thought of as production anomalies could be said to have played to the Masonic agenda. At the beginning of the story the young woman of the story has the pale complexion that is typical of the film's setting on the Europe side of the North Atlantic. But the making of the film was done in Baha California in Mexico (I recall reading) and the shooting of the film was quite long. The actress playing the role started to aquire a tan, and this showed up in the film. The budget for the film was very large, so that meant that the catering, to the food requirements of the the cast was sumptuous (I recall hearing). The actress playing the role started to put on a bit of weight. The actor playing the other leading role had a very youthful look. By the end of the film the actress who had put on some weight and the young actor, who avoided putting on weight, presented an image that seemed more like a mother and son than two people of a similar age. The sinking of the ship was a major disaster. The final descent of the rear of the ship into the water was depicted in such a way that, these several years later, it looks quite similar to the collapse of the second tower to fall, of the Twin Towers. The song at the end of the film provides the conceptual link. The line "Once more you open the door", conjures up an archetypal scenario of a soldier returning from war. The ulterior purpose of the film then, was to recruit people for the armed forces, for a war that was at that time yet to have a cause. The lines of the song "You' re here, there's nothing I fear, and I know that my heart will go on", qualifies as an "ea x 2" sentence, so would have conveyed to Masonic types that the film contained undercurrents and emotions that they should leave to others to get influenced by. When listening to this song, it might be worth while keeping in mind another maritime story besides the story of the Titanic. In Greek mythology, in the story of Odysseus (Ulysses in Latin) and the Sirens, Odysseus has been warned of the danger posed by the Sirens (mythical creatures that lured sailors to destruction with their song). His decision was to block the ears of his crew with wax and have himself tied to the mast of the ship so he could listen to the Siren's song, without being able to change the ship's course.

It should be noted that the film Titanic was digitally adjusted for the DVD release, to normalise the image of the two young people (I have observed).

The 1999 film The Matrix contains one image that seems to have been Masonic prophecying, that being the image of a helicopter crashing into a building. The early 2001 film Vanilla Sky (made by Paramount Pictures) contained a couple of images that seem to have been a hint of what was to come. Those being the scene where the main character runs through the deserted streets of New York, being suggestive of the grounding of planes, for example; and the final scene on top of the tall building.

Both of these films have the thematic element that it is fault within the system that is the problem. This perpaps was a subconscious expression of insider knowlege. The code number for "sky" is 191125 also.

In the year 1999 film PushingTin the first shot of the film is of the Twin Towers with two passenger planes crossing in front of them. The title refers to the job of the flight controllers who must schedule the take off of the planes [the tin], and the landing of the ones coming in. I tend to read a little bit extra into this title though. The number code for "tin" is 20914. There is enough there for a coded message referring to the iminent September 11 attack. The word "pushing", then, takes on the slang meaning of iminence, as in expressions like "he's pushing 50", meaning he is almost 50. The title might then have been another warning the September 11 conspiracy was going ahead and would happen soon. The film also contained the line "Do you want your life back?", followed by a scene of risk taking behavior taht seems to offer some mysterios psychological benefit. This line of dialogue followed by the risk taking scene could be thought of as an unanounced army recruitment add in the film. Young people who are struggling to establish their independence are offered the chance to regan control of their lives with a decisive change. It is a type of story interlude that had been used before, such as in the 1989-1990 television show Twin Peaks, before the first Gulf War. In one episode a young motocycle rider says that in his situation he feels that his life is not his own, and that he has to go away. The military forces seem to beckon.

The 1998 film The Truman Show deserves a mention here also, for the way it seemed to foretell of the imminent lowering of the civil rights standard, and for what appears to be a symbolic reference to waterboarding (simulated drowning), towards the end of the film.

Shortly after Pushing Tin, at around the same time as Vanilla Sky, in early 2001, came the film Pearl Harbour. This film offered another rousing and emotional story similar to Titanic, except that with Pearl Harbour there was the consequence that the United States was taken into the Second World War.

Moving forward to 2009, it has been suggested that the recent film Public Enemies (2009), may be in some way analogous to the current times. It does appear as though the makers of the film have had an eye to this. In the scene where Dillinger meets an Italian mafia boss who tells him something along the lines of, "You are too hot. You are no longer welcome in any of our joints, bars, clubs or casinos", the filmmakers seem to be suggesting that there is consistency from the law enforcement stance towards people who provided material support for Dillinger and other wanted "public enemies", to that part of the so-called "Bush Doctrine", that says that the U.S. government will not make distinction between terrorists and those that harbour them. But I think there is a difference. For one thing, the Bureau of Investigation (later called the Federal Bureau of Investigation), observed the laws of juristiction. They did not get materially involved in the Dillinger case until he broke a Federal law. That was their juristiction. And the people who provided different kinds of supprot or comfort for Dillinger and the other public enemies, which could have engendered the use of the word "harbouring", were not treated in the same way as the public enemies themselves. One could say that at the point of apprehension, the treatment was the same, the important point being whether the person being apprehended drew a weapon or not. But after being appredended, as some of the public enemies were at various times, and some of the supporting people were, the treatment was different. Distinction was made administratively and legally. Another difference to be seen if drawing an analogy between then and now is in the response to the death of by-standers. After the ambush type situation at the lakeside resort of Little Bohemia in which a member of the public not involved with the outlaws was killed, a sigifigant amount of political and administrative pressure was applied to improve the operational procedure of the Bureau of Investigation to prevent further by-stander deaths. (The book John Dillinger: A Biography by Dary Matera gives solid coverage of these aspects of the Dillinger case.)

[number 12]
Another hand sign related to the Masonic metaphor of "air" is one that pairs up with the term "flight of fancy". To do this sign the person brings their wrists quite close together and at the same time opens their hands so that the fingers are slightly splayed, pointing outward and slightly upward, resembling the wings of a bird taking off. The hand sign has been used in documentary films or fact based television programs when some fictional or fanciful content will be included and presented as fact. The origin of this hand sign may have been the situation where the speaker was in handcuffs and making up a story to proclaim their innocence concerning a particular offense, and, when the hands were normally handcuffed in front of the body, they gestured with their hands as best they could.
Another Masonic sign related to the "air" metaphor involves poking out the tongue and holding it to the side of the mouth. This sign has been designated mainly to the winners of sporting contests which involve being a participant in a rapid ride of some kind, such as skiing or surfing [for those who are with the Masons]. This sign connects with the Biblical story of Samson, who, by the end of the story has been blinded and enslaved at the mill in Gaza. God had earlier said that the Jews will be his chosen people if they can obey His law, which they were not able to manage. At a later period, having read this story in the Bible, stone cutters and stonemasons took to scaring people by looking through the hole in the middle of the millstone before it went into use making flour. The poking out of the tongue could be used as a scare tactic, and it connected with the Samson story [Judges 13-16]. In the centre of the millstone the tongue hanging out represented the blinding of an eye, to the stonemasons, and the idea that their stonemason centred group was a special group. So this sign, in modern use, has been designated to those who win competitions, thus making them special for a short while, and other situations where the person that does the sign has been deemed to be "special". The sign that connects with the word "air" is where the tongue is held to the side. They probably got this sign variation from observing dogs riding in cars, which often put their heads out the window to feel the air, and let their tongues hang to the side.
On the subject of sports involving a rapid ride, I want to assert that the danger inherent in some sports, including ones such as mountain climbing and scuba diving, does not only involve physical calculations. When one's life is dependent on the expertise of someone else there is a social element as well. I am thinking here of infiltration by the Masons. They may try to use such situations to bond people to them. To back up these Masonic moves, faults and sloppiness of performance can be introduced that might occasionally lead to a death, which can be called an accident.
Again on meanings put on the word "air", I want to point to the Cabalistic symbol for the word "air", [the "Cabala" being the doctrine of an old Jewish sect]. This symbol could be described as a right angle triangle that has its right angle at the bottom, inverting the normal position of a right angle triangle, and in the middle of the triangle is a short horizontal line, and from this line is a longer vertical line extending downward out of the triangle at the point of the 90 degree angle. Crossing this line outside the triangle are three more horizontal lines, of varying lengths. The longest of these three lines is in the uppermost position, the next on down is shorter, and the next is the shortest. At the bottom is a circle. The straight lines outside the triangle together resemble a television antenna. [See, for example, Shepherd's Glossary Of Graphic Signs And Symbols by Walter Shepherd, page 161.] There is also a Cabalistic symbol that means "earth". It could be described as a right angle triangle that has its 90 degree angle at the top, and on top of the triangle is a horizontal line. On top of this line is a small circle. From the bottom of the triangle, an arrow sign is pointing down. [Also page 161 of Shepherd's Glossary.]
These two symbols appear to be the origin of the sign of the sports shoes hanging from overhead telephone lines or other electrical wires. It appears to be a Masonic sign. Someone who is with the Masons ties together the laces of a pair of old sports shoes and throws them up onto the overhead wires. It is highly unlikely that the shoes will hang evenly after the throw. They hang unevenly, and because they are old they symbolise "air" that is impure. What the sign seems to mean is that the street gangs in the area are not controlled, or not fully controlled, by the Masons. If the Masons are able to establish control of all the street gangs in the area, then the old, unevenly hanging sports shoes are replaced by a newer pair of sports shoes that are hung evenly. For this replacement to be done, it would seem to be necessary for at least some of the workers with the telephone or power company to be with the Masons, because of the height. If such replacement does occur, then the shoe laces of the evenly hanging shoes resemble the shape of a compass and suggest the triangle of the Cabalistic symbol for "earth". The meaning of the word "compass" listed in the Oxford English Dictionary is relevant here also. The comments on the early meaning of the word list "measure kept in walking together".
On the subject of television transmission again, one gets an idea of how the situation has developed if one reads the book War and Anti-War: survival at the dawn of the 21st century by Alvin and Heidi Toffler. In this book the authors write about such things as satellite surveillance and interactive television, and how these things can be used in war. But they do not mention the presence of the Masons in many of our Western institutions. As has been noted, war is of central interest to the Masons, and it has become clear that they have a strong interest in the various forms of art as well. Today [in 2007] their presence in the media seems to be one of the Masons' strongest weapons.
The information compiled in the Tofflers' book and the accompanying speculations appear to have been very influential. Many films appear to have had their beginnings with material in this book, or have used the information in some way. Where the technological developments written about in the book have come into being or have been more fully developed it is natural enough that one or more films be made that deal with the new technology. But the book seems to be very well known in Hollywood and where the Tofflers are thought to have been the first to deal with a particular new technology in a book, a kind of backhand acknowledgment has been given to them by way of the film-makers also taking some of the creative elements of their book [on war], and injecting them into a film [movie]. Specifically, the list of chapter names and subheadings on the "contents" pages at the front of the book seem to have been inspiring to film-makers. [There may be a point of note for writers here. If a writer gives his chapters interesting names, Hollywood film-makers might make movies out of the chapter names and not pay the writer for the rights, because the exact wording of the chapter would probably not be used]. In the case of the Tofflers' book War and Anti-War, there is an additional reason for acknowledgment to be of a backhand or under-the-table nature, and that is that the subject matter relates to war. Film-makers who are with the Masons [it seems] are required to include some small promotion of war or other aspect of the Masonic agenda in their films, but it is not openly acknowledged. The fact that this book by the Tofflers deals with new technological and social developments, and how these relate to war give a strong inspiration to film-makers who want to further the Masonic agenda.
One film that does this is the 1998 film The Truman Show made by Paramount Pictures. This film connects with the Tofflers' book at many points, by way of the film-makers taking many of the subheading in the book and using the direct or secondary meaning of the words as inspiration for scenes in the film, as well as using the information in the book. On page 208 of the book there is "Media Government"; in the film this idea sets up the world in which Truman lives, inside a very large television studio. On page 171 there is "Reporting in Real Time"; in the film Truman is on the air 24 hours a day. Page 170 has "The Media as Star"; an idea conveyed in the film by the television show director relaying information about the number of cameras used and other aspects of his television production, to the viewers of the program.
On page 100 of their book War and Anti-War published in 1993, the Tofflers write that "Military satellite systems that permit countries to listen into, photograph, and otherwise monitor rivals will become weapons in economic as well as military warfare". Around one year later in the United States legislation was passed allowing satellite surveillance images to be sold by government agencies to private companies. About four years after this, The Truman Show was made.
More of the Tofflers' sub-headings were used. "The Civilianization of War" was symbolised in the film by the beret worn by the director which was not a normal civilian style beret, but was a military commando style beret, worn in the commando manner. Also, in the control centre located behind an image of the moon, in the side of the picture, there is sometimes a character in sports clothing riding a stationary exercise bike, symbolising sports shoes in the air, like the ones that are sometimes thrown onto power lines. Here "air" connects with street gang activity and television broadcasting onto the airwaves.
"Da Vinci Dreams" is captured by the scene where Truman tries to create a likeness of a particular young woman from several magazine photographs. Next we see that Truman is in "The Zone of Illusion", his world is not real. The social aspects of his life are created around him, and dissolve when he moves on. Casting his mind back to the time he encountered this particular young woman, he remembers the "Rites, Music, Frivolity". The young woman was taken out of his life in a sudden and unusual manner, "The End of Ecstasy". Truman later expresses to the woman he thinks is his wife, his desire to travel to Fiji [because of the other woman], but there is "An Absence of Paychecks". Truman is not paid for his role in the television show. He watches television and a presenter says they will be showing a movie that shows the value of home and family. The director of "The Truman Show", which follows Truman, does not want him to try to leave. It is interactive television, "The Pinpoint Message".
The Tofflers provide some information about this. On page 233 of their above named book, they write that hidden self-destruct microchips could be implanted into weapons by a country when the weapons are sold to another country, as alliances may change. They also make clear their belief in the importance of the media in modern warfare, such as on page 236. Interactive media is looked at in the sub-section "The Pinpoint Message", on page 171. They do not explain how interactive television works, but, putting these pieces of information together, an answer can be deduced. There are, implanted in television sets, electronic devices that generate surveillance data on individuals. The major piece of hardware is, I believe, a minature camera set behind or to the side of the screen. These cameras in the television sets are implanted during their manufacture, in the way described by the Tofflers concerning weapons. It seems probable that this implanting is made possible by the electronic companies that manufacture the television sets being with the Masons. The surveillance data is not controlled by the governments of the countries that manufacture the television sets. It seems to be controlled by Masonic factions within the security agencies of Western governments. These factions are perhaps best identified by the term "the old guard", which they may have at times applied to themselves, as well as being called that by others. The images from the cameras in the television sets are now high resolution, clear images, and are linked to electronic facial recognition technology and to data bases of information on individuals. Perhaps almost all of us in modern societies are being subjected to some degree of "Truman Show" style rights abuses. What comes back to us with this interactive television is, as the Tofflers suggest, manipulated news and entertainment intended to mould our opinions. Also as suggested by the Tofflers, data can be customised by "theater commanders"[a military term]. Masonic operatives can dial into a particular camera in a television set with their mobile phones or personal computers for close surveillance.
If the Masonic factions can bond people who work in the television and film industry then that adds to the opinion moulding system. As is usual with the Masons, the offer of secret knowledge is a tactic that can be used to penetrate various areas of the media. Stories of early Masons looking through millstones may be portrayed as early connections to the media. Looking through a small millstone with a small hole could be said, by the Masons, to be analogous to looking through the eye piece of a movie camera or still camera. Looking through a large millstone with a large hole could be said by them, to be analogous to appearing on television. [The Oxford English Dictionary listing for "millstone" has comment about this.]
There were a few more of the Tofflers' sub-headings used in The Truman Show. Truman decides he has enough money for a trip to Fiji, or at least off the island he believes is his home; he has "Budget Without Strategy". After being disappointed at a travel agent, he buys a bus ticket for the first stage of his intended journey. He waits on the bus but is finally told that it is not leaving. He has been thwarted by "The Menace of Interdependence". Returning home, Truman expresses his suspicions to his "wife" about something strange going on and decides it is time for them to take a driving holiday over the bridge to the mainland. Truman is afraid of crossing water so he drives with his eyes closed, perhaps like a kung fu master doing moves in a movie, "The Asian Challenge". On the other side of the bridge a wall of fire is thrown up and Truman drives through it at high speed, "The Flaming Match". A short distance down the road they are stopped by a road block. There has been a nuclear accident, "The Next Chernobyl". A patrolman mistakenly acknowledges Truman by name and the final realisation of something unusual hits Truman. He runs, but is stopped by nuclear power station workers. Returning home with his "wife", Truman is depressed, so this actress playing the wife tries to cheer him up with the offer of hot chocolate. She is really doing an advertisement for the chocolate product and Truman suspects her as well. He questions her, and feeling threatened, she grabs a kitchen tool to defend herself, turning "Ploughshares into Swords", metaphorically speaking. When she asks the kitchen ceiling for help, help arrives. It is Truman's "friend". She tells the friend that her position is "unprofessional!". The television actress wants to leave the show, a case of "The Rich Want Out", one could say.
In real life, a similar thing to what the Tofflers describe in this sub-section was brought about in recent years, with the wealthy film and television production areas of Hollywood and Beverly Hills forming a separate city demarcation because they felt they could do better without the rest of Los Angeles.
After the incident in the kitchen, Truman retreats from the life he had and sleeps in the cellar of his house. He is still at this point being monitored by the television director with his surveillance technology, but the director suspects something has gone wrong while his technicians were taking a break. The director sends in the "friend", but Truman is gone. It is a case of "Bamboozled Inspectors". To find Truman the director enlists the actors and to assist them, orders that the artificial sun must be made to rise before the proper time, creating "Unreal Real Time". The director switches to a camera in the "sky", and Truman is spotted with this "Tracking Technology", in a sailing boat trying to escape from the island. To stop him the director orders an artificial wave to hit the sailing boat. This brings to mind the chapter title "First Wave War" in the Tofflers' book. There are two more metaphorical waves in the Tofflers' book, and two more waves in the film. With the third wave Truman's boat tips over and Truman is on the point of drowning until assistants urge the director to relent. Truman is "Back from the Dead", the almost dead actually, when the weather clears up and his boat rights itself. Truman sails on optimistically, there are "Open Skies and Open Minds", or perhaps just one open mind in this television studio. But ahead there is "The Invisible Wall"; a wall painted to look like sky and water. When the front of the boat hits the wall, it puts a hole in the wall, "Boundary Breakage". There is a path around the edge of the painted wall which Truman walks around until he finds stairs leading to a raised platform and a door out of the studio. The director now speaks to Truman for the first time, over a loud speaker system. He asks Truman not to go and says they have a special relationship. The director says he has known Truman since Truman got his "first tooth". Considering the earlier wave incident, 'Two-Faced "Things"', is what comes to mind here. With the line "You never had a camera inside my head", Truman makes a declaration of independence. It is "The Uncontainable Revolution". Truman's last line "If I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night", indicates what secretive organization was supporting this movie.

[Post number 11]
There is a hand sign that seems to have been popular in previous centuries with the Masons, "thumbing the nose", which is often mentioned in dictionaries under the listing for"thumb". With this sign, the hand is held up so that the extended thumb touches the end of the nose and the palm of the hand is held in front, flattened and in the vertical position, while the fingers waggle. In the past it may have been that the nose was sometimes held down, simulating a break of the nose. The typical situation for the use of this hand sign seems to have been one where the person doing the sign has committed a minor public nuisance or act of disturbing the peace and has run to a safe distance, at which point they do the sign. The waggling of the fingers signifies the fluttering of a bird's wing and connects to the Masonic metaphor of "air", to refer to street gangs of various kinds. Today this sign seems to have been separated into parts, one could say. The description of the sign, "thumbing the nose", is most often used as a term of speech, meaning disrespectful defiance, usually without invoking an image of the old fashioned hand sign. A bending of the nose to the side briefly with the thumb, seems now to be the action which is associated with the expression, but this action is usually done with ambivalence, some operational cover one might say, so is less extreme. The connotation is of working class strength. Or, in the mass media, it might only be a general Masonic sign. The reference of this brief thumb-to-nose sign seems to be to boxing. At the beginning of a boxing match, fighters would often block one nostril with the thumb and sniff back any fluid in the other nostril to clear the airway, without dropping their guard. This sign carries some acknowledgment of the "rules of the game", so seems to diverge from the old fashioned hand sign.
The waggling fingers from the old fashioned hand sign continued on, in a slightly different form also, in vaudeville theatre in the late 19th century and cabaret theatre in the first half of the 20th century.This slightly different form of hand movement could be described as a wavering of the hand with fluttering of the fingers, with the palm of the hand facing forward, held out to the side of the body. This sign also connects to an image of a bird's wing and to "air", to street gang activity.
A hand sign of more recent times that has borrowed from "the wavering hand with fluttering fingers" hand sign is one known variously as the "bong on", "hang ten", or "shaka" hand sign. This hand sign is done by extending the thumb and small finger while the other three fingers are held in. When the hand is held so that the fingers are upright except that the thumb tilts out a bit and the little finger tilts in a bit, the "bong on" meaning is conveyed. The hand is raised above the level of the elbow, giving a slightly laid back angle to the hand. [A bong is an upright water-pipe used for smoking marijuana.] When the knuckles are pointing up and the thumb and little finger are out to the side, the "hang ten" meaning is conveyed, and the wavering of the hand is added. Here, the wavering of the hand invokes an image of ocean waves, of water that is in contact with moving air. It has been designated by the Masons to people who like surfing and who also come in contact with street gangs. The other name for this hand sign, the "shaka" hand sign, is a Hawaiian name [the internet tells me], and probably refers to both of the above uses of the hand sign.
This same hand sign, where the thumb and little finger are out, is often used in stage craft to mimic speaking on the telephone. The thumb is held close to the ear and the little finger close to the mouth suggesting the shape of a telephone receiver. In each of these situations the Masons probably see a secondary reference to a compass.
A different hand-to-face sign which connects with the word "compass", is one where the person doing the sign pulls the end of their nose, pretending that there is an itch there. This sign connects with dictionary meaning numbers 9 and 10 for the verb "compass" in The Oxford English Dictionary [Second Edition], which is "To grasp with the mind, comprehend fully", a re-phrasing of this being "To grasp the point,[of an argument]". With the Masonic sign that pairs with this word meaning, a word play has suggested a physical grasping of the point of the nose, or, as a variation, a male grasping his genitalia, "the point", in this word play variation. The second of these signs is usually done on the pretext of adjusting the crotch for comfort. As with the other Masonic signs, one sign tends to be reinforced with other signs, such that ambiguities can be resolved by those who are paying attention to this underworld.
Another hand sign is the "o.k" hand sign. This hand sign is done by forming a circle with the thumb and index finger. The thumb and index finger do not touch each other on the ends but pass y each other and make contact on the sides, when the sign is done by those with the Masons. This makes the circle of these two digits rounder as well as smaller. The other fingers of the hand are spread out above. This sign is not a secret sign. It is openly displayed, but there are some points to be noted. Dictionaries tell us that the word "okay" and the variation "o.k" is derived from "orl korrect", a humourous variation on "all correct" [such as the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary]. But there is a truer origin [I believe].
The compass, that the Masons see as one of their symbols, connects with the symbol of the millstone. The carving of the millstones in times past, was assisted by the marking of a circle on the piece of stone to be used. For this purpose a large compass with arms around three or four feet long [about a metre], was used. One may have seen compasses of this length forming the symbol of the two crossed compasses that has often been mounted on the front of Masonic lodges. An alternative being a compass crossed with a square [the instrument], which the Masons seem to be shifting to.
The millstone became a central symbol of the Masons at some point after Jesus Christ spoke the words "But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea" [Matthew xviii 6, King James Version]. The Masons decided to base their standard of criminality on these words. They then adopted the millstone as the symbol of their criminal conspiracy, and then the compass, which gave them more operational cover.
We have noted how the Masons were connected to the Knights Templar. [Now I would rephrase this as the Knights Templars being connected to a secret organization centring on stonemasons, which became the Masons.]
And it has been noted how the Masons carried on some of the show of knighthood as a from of operational cover. The word "okay" is derived from "o.k." [I believe], meaning millstone-wearing knight. the "o" represents the millstone and the "k." stands for the word "knight". The "o.k." hand sign was a hand sign that gave the meaning "millstone-wearing knight". The word "o.k." was probably first used in North America, in a phrase such as "He's an o.k.". The Masons could not control its use though, and it entered the American language. While the Masons had no doubt used the word as a term of respect, as the word entered the language its meaning was often "average, acceptable, mediocre". This was probably because the people who were first described as being "o.k." were not really of good character, but were often successful in hiding their criminality.
When the Masons realized that "o.k." had gone into the language and that its meaning was now different to what it meant to them ["average", instead of something highly regarded], they began trying to misappropriate the word "good", for their own use, and to put Masonic meanings onto it. One of their aims in this being the disparagement of religion, such as the teachings of The Good Book, the Bible.
When one looks closely, it appears that the Masons have been putting their mark on the English language for centuries. The Masonic symbol of the millstone is represented in words that have a "oo" sound and use the "oo" spelling. The symbol of the Knights Templar was an emblem of two knights riding on the one horse. Similarly, except in secret, a symbol of the Masons is two millstone-wearing knights standing as one gang. As a result of their influence in the development of the English language, there is a pattern of words with the "oo" spelling. In the building field there are the words "room", "door", "roof", "floor", and "tools". In the field of war we have "troops", "platoon", "shoot", "bazooka", and "blood". The last of these words does not have one of the normal "oo" sounds, but the "oo" spelling has been adopted. "Door" and "floor" don't have the standard "oo" sound either. Neither does "brooch", an ornamental item that is often made of gold. In the domain of street crime, there are slang words such as "crooked", "bootleg", "moonshine", "booze", "hooch", "loot", "booty", 'boost", "hooker", "boobs", "woody", "nookie", "bookie", "schmooze", "mooch", and "lampoon". The field of espionage has the word "spook". The field of education has the words "school", "book", "classroom", and "hooky". To describe things that are good, besides the word "good" there is "boon" and "boom", and the exclamatory sounds "wooh!", "woo-hoo!", and "yahoo!", and for times that are not good, we have "gloom", and "doom".
In the French language the "00" sound is common, but not the spelling. But, similar to the colloquial English "yoo-hoo", and "tood-a-loo", which are largely associated with prostitution, there is the French exclamatory phrase "ooh-la-la". And then there is what is one of the few standard French words with the "oo" spelling, the French word for alcohol, "alcool ".
The Masons inject this signage into numbers as well. One number in particular can be associated with the Masons. Two millstone-wearing knights standing as one gang - 2001. This might cause one to wonder whether Osama bin Laden is a Mason. I cannot see anything that suggests that he is. There is much to suggest that the Masons planned the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington and not Osama bin Laden. It may be that the Masons were planning an event such as this for the year 2001 for more than a hundred years.
Continuing with hand signs, another hand sign is the two finger hand sign meaning "get f***ed!". It derives its meaning from the idea of rape [more strongly that of homosexual rape] as a form of domination. Once again, a statue of Julius Caesar could be said to be either the model for this hand sign or an early example of it. This is the statue located on the Via Foro Imperiali in front of the Forum Julia, in Rome. One hand has the bow shaped hand sign and the other hand has the two finger sign. This two finger sign is done by raising the index finger and middle finger, with both fingers curving slightly, with a gap between the fingers and the fingernails facing forward, and usually with some wrist action. A common variation of this hand sign, especially in England, has the two fingers straightened.
A similar sign [or gesture] used in North America uses just one finger raised, that being the middle finger. Known as "raising the middle finger", "giving them the finger", or "flipping the bird", it pairs with the words "f*** you". The raised middle finger is a phallic symbol and it carries the same idea of rape as a form of domination as the two finger sign. The name "the bird" seems to derive from the position of the fingers that are held down, which resemble the position of a bird's folded wings.

[post number 10]
The technique for firing a revolver several times in rapid succession which involves holding the gun in one hand and cocking the hammer of the gun with the palm of the other hand in a "fanning" motion before each firing, which is often seen in "western" movies, is not a Masonic sign. A single cocking of the hammer of the gun with the thumb is the motion that has been used as a Masonic "mafia" sign. The usual scenario has involved the gun being pointed at a person who continues to resist the will of the person holding the gun, who then cocks back the hammer, which is seen as increasing the level of threat, which makes the person being threatened submit to the will of the person holding the gun.
Another situation which can form a Masonic sign is when a child plays the role of a gun fighting cowboy, using his fingers and thumbs as guns or using toy guns. If the child has no opponent who is also firing toy guns or imaginary guns or arrows but continues with unusual persistence or seems to be acting with genuine hostility, then the child is probably acting on the instructions of his parents who are bonded to the Masons.
Another situation where "the straight shooter sign" might be seen is in court cases. A lawyer who is with the Masons might do the straight shooter sign if he or she is the prosecutor and wants any juror who is bonded to the Masons to judge the defendant guilty, or if he or she is the lawyer for the defendant and wants any juror who is bonded to the Masons to find the defendant innocent. The result might be that innocent people may be found guilty and guilty people may go free, in a somewhat systematic way. In court cases, as in other situations, some operational cover is used, to protect a lawyer [or other person] from the accusation of being linked to organised crime. So if the straight shooter sign is done, it is done in such a way that it is not seen by those who are not bonded to the Masons. If the lawyer has his arms raised in a gesture of emphasis or drama, he or she could hold the fingers splayed out, with the thumb pulled back so that the hand is flat. This will achieve the straight shooter sign with the thumb and index finger. Another way to do it is for the person to place their hand on their chest when speaking of themselves [especially with the word "myself"], with their fingers splayed. The hand is flattened on the chest so that the shooter sign is achieved. A third way is for the person, in this situation a lawyer, to count a list of factors with their fingers, extending the thumb on "one" and the index finger on "two", forming the shooter sign. The counting on the fingers is often stopped for any numbers that are counted after two. The intention has been to do the shooter sign.
A Masonic sign that seems to have developed from the straight shooter sign is the tick, or check mark. Whether this mark was introduced by the Masons in previous centuries and adopted by the wider population or came into use from someone else, the situation today is that the tick/check mark is in general use for administrative and educational purposes when handwriting is used on paper. The extension of its use into advertising and other media applications seems to be motivated by the intention to send a Masonic sign. This is especially clear when the down stroke of the tick/check mark is thicker than the diagonal stroke as this seems to represent the way the thumb is thicker than the index finger, as seen with the "shooter" hand sign. Another touch is to have the tick/check mark in the colour red, symbolizing blood.
The shooter sign can also be represented in a person's stance in a photograph or film. One foot is positioned in the normal toes-forward foot placement. The other foot is turned outward and placed out to the side a bit, from the normal standing foot position. This creates, with a bit of imagination, a tick/check mark in the way the feet are aligned. This stance also makes the leg which is out to the side, look a little longer, because this leg is not bearing weight and the hip bone angles down towards this leg. Because one leg looks a little longer than the other, this leg positioning has been nominated by the Masons as a Masonic sign, being a bit similar, as it is, to the way the index finger is longer than the thumb, as seen in the shooter sign. A touch that can be added to this leg positioning as Masonic sign is shadow. The origin of this touch probably is the sun dial, an instrument fixed in a public space used to tell the time of day, by looking at the position of the shadow cast by an angled piece of metal [part of the instrument], which was used by the ancient Romans. The piece of metal used with the sun dial has a shape like a tick/check mark that has been tilted back around 90 degrees. At some times of the day, the shadow cast by the piece of metal looks similar to a tick/check mark, and perhaps was a factor in the adoption of the thumb and index finger hand sign.
Looking at some other hand signs, a sign related to the thumb and index finger shooter sign is one where the fingers are together and the hand is held flat and is pushed into a front or side pocket of one's pants or jacket, excepting the thumb, which is left on the outside of the pocket. I said I had come up with names for most of the hand signs. This one could be called "the holstered gun". What it means is that the person who is doing the sign is not on an operation, or if they are, it is a low-key, long term operation. It is usually seen in photographs rather than in daily life. A variation is to bend the hand slightly at the knuckles to suggest the shape of a holstered revolver. An example of this hand sign can be seen on the ninth of the photograph pages in the book Man of Honor: The Autobiography of Joseph Bonanno, on the lower half of the page, to the right side of the photograph.
On the next page of this book, in the photograph in the lower part of the page, Bonanno is doing a hand sign that could be called "the bow", because the hand is made to resemble an archer's longbow. A statue of Julius Caesar from ancient Rome has either been the model for this hand sign or an early example of it. To do this sign, a person makes a curve with the four fingers of one hand and straightens out the thumb, holding the thumb so that it very nearly touches the curved index finger. The angle of the hand is such that a person looking from the front can see the curve of the fingers and the straightened thumb. Once again, this hand sign is usually seen in photographs rather than in daily life. It is a hand sign of general Masonic mafia meaning.
Another hand sign of rather general meaning is one I am calling "the Mona Lisa finger split on the hips", which is done by placing one or both hands on the hips with a gap of more than normal width between two of the fingers of the hand or hands, usually the upper two fingers. This sign has been done by women who are bonded to the Masons, in, for example, high fashion photography. It has a sexual connotation. There has been a similar sign for males where they have one index finger straight, along the top of their belt from the hip, with a gap between it and the middle finger. The index finger acts as a phallic symbol with this hand sign [also a sexual connotation]. Variations to these fingers-on-hips hand sign designations have appeared.
These hand signs on the hips may have developed from what is perhaps a sign that was introduced by the Masons a long time ago, that being the placing of the fists on the hips to indicate strength or to indicate anger. Here, the Masons see the way the arms bend at the elbow and the way they are opposite each other as resembling two compasses set in a pattern, like the symbol of the two crossed compasses, where the points of one compass go diagonally up and the points of the other go diagonally down. It should be noted that the fingers-on-hips hand signs are quite easy to create in photography through digital manipulation of the image, perhaps in combination with poses requested by the photographer who might be bonded to the Masons.
There is a hand sign that has been nominated to male artists and performers who are with the Masons, which could be called "the Colosseum thumb sign on biceps". This hand sign is done by folding the arms so that each hand is around the upper part of the opposite arm and the thumb of one of the hands is not relaxed, but instead is stretched up, similar to the "thumbs-up'' sign from the Colosseum in Rome. This sign [on the biceps] is done by male artists, performers and other males who work in various media arts [who are with the Masons and] who are commenting on their work or the work of others. The up stretched thumb is approximately on the biceps, invoking an image of the muscular gladiators of the Colosseum.
A variation of this sign is the thumb up stretched on the cuff of a suit jacket, designated to ceremonial occasions. One may have also seen the thumb sign on the hips, sometimes done by dress designers. One may have also seen the shooter sign on the upper arm, with the thumb on the biceps and the index finger extending over to the triceps, with a gap between the index finger and the middle finger. Here, the index finger bends around the arm. What seems to be suggested by this is that the person doing the sign engages in some overtly illegal activities, such as marijuana dealing. This sign can also be done, when seated, by placing the shooter sign on one's leg in such a way that the index finger bends slightly, with the shape of the leg.
Another hand sign is one that could be called "the pen", which has been designated to writers of various kinds who are with the Masons, [either accepted into their ranks or bonded to them]. This hand sign is done by resting one's forearm on something such as the armrest of a chair and holding the index finger of this arm in a position which has the end of this finger about one centimetre, or half an inch, forward of the middle finger. The hand is held in this position long enough for others with the Masons to notice it. With bonding to the Masons the writer is expected to make the Masonic agenda of war, social conflict and self-interest appear to be the natural state of the world.
A hand sign that there has been some awareness of, is one that could be called "the pinkie extension". This has been described as a point of etiquette, but is actually a Masonic hand sign. It is done when drinking tea or coffee in a public setting. The thumb, index finger and middle finger hold the handle of the cup in the normal way, but the small finger, the "pinkie", extends out away from the others in an abnormal way and is straightened. But one would need to be careful in judging whether a person's hand position is this "pinkie extension" hand sign because the pinky might move out naturally to some degree.

The position of James Dean's hand in the poster is not quite a standard position for "the straight shooter sign" because the thumb is pointing in the same direction as the palm. If the hand in the picture were to be turned a quarter of a rotation, to the standard handshake position, then the thumb would be in the "hammer down" position. It is easiest to think of a revolver when thinking of the thumb as the hammer of a gun, which causes the firing pin to hit the bullet when the trigger is pulled. The "hammer down" position of the thumb when a person is doing the shooter sign, can be to the side of the index finger, forming a flat "v" when looked at from above [except that the line of the index finger is longer], or, when the hand is allowed to relax at the wrist, such as when resting an elbow on something, the thumb is held against the knuckle of the index finger and the person bends the end of the thumb back as far as it will go. With this hand position where the wrist is relaxed, the index finger is not straight but instead held in a slight curve, to disguise the hand sign a bit. But it still noticeably resembles the barrel of a gun, to a person who knows of the sign. In Southern Europe the thumb and index finger sign makes more of a reference to a compass, so the thumb down position is down further, pointing diagonally at the ground, and is closer to being in the position of the thumb down position from the Colosseum in Rome.
The shooter sign ,"hammer down", and the sign of the compass with the thumb down both appear overwhelmingly in the various media rather than in daily life. They both appear in photography, television programs, movies and other media, but they have different meanings. The sign of the compass with the thumb down can either indicate a negative judgment being passed, or that the person doing the sign requires a higher than normal degree of operational cover in their situation.The shooter sign, "hammer down", when pointed at someone, has meant that the person being pointed at, has been bonded to the Masons like the person doing the sign. The image that is suggested is of a revolver with the hammer not cocked back. When the hammer of a revolver is cocked back, it sets the gun ready to fire with a slight pull of the trigger. The appearance of a revolver in television "cop shows", as well as in movies, where the process of cocking back the hammer is shown, has often been used to send a general Masonic "mafia" sign through these media, providing psychological reinforcement to those who are bonded to the Masons.)

(Earlier I mentioned signs. Person to person signs. Here I want to post a list of all the hand signs that I know of, with some accompanying notes. I have arrived at names for most of them to aid description.
Firstly, a sign I have mentioned before, the thumb and index finger sign, derived [I believe] from a statue of Caesar Augustus, a statement of Julius Caesar, and the sign of the thumb from the Colosseum in Rome. In the modern day and especially in North America and other English speaking lands, this sign makes reference to a gun. The sign has been used as a secret communication letting others who are bonded to the Masons know that the person who is doing the sign is also bonded to the Masons. I feel sure that this sign has been given the name "the straight shooter sign". I want to distinguish this sign from a hand gesture which is similar but is not a secret sign. This is a thumb and index finger gesture which is openly acknowledged to represent a gun. With this gesture the person points the index finger at another person as a good-bye gesture before they part company. The thumb is then moved down toward the palm of the hand, and at the same time a click or clicking sound is made with the mouth. A wink of the eye may be added. What this probably indicates is that the person making the gesture enjoys watching "western" movies.
The sign known as "the straight shooter sign" is different to this. It has been a secret sign, used when someone who is bonded to the Masons is on an operation and wants the person who is shown the sign, to assist them in some way; or the person doing the sign may just want some special treatment for their own benefit, or not have something withheld from them. More frequently though, it has been used in the media, as a display of the power and influence of the Masons, when particular politicians and media personalities could be seen doing the hand sign on television or in photographs. But now, with digital technology, photographs and video footage can be easily changed. The fingers and thumbs in a picture can be moved using digital editing to exaggerate the power of the Masons or to confuse. Slightly different pictures can be sent to different television sets using interactive television technology, which involves a degree of surveillance of the television viewer. Probably the most widely seen picture manipulation to plant "the straight shooter sign" was with earlier technology though. That being the poster of James Dean for the 1955 movie Rebel Without a Cause, which shows him doing the sign while holding a cigarette. The poster is in the style of a drawing or watercolour and [I am confident in saying] was not done from a photograph or from real life but was created by an artist who was acting on instructions from the Masons.

Having become aware of the importance of Shakespeare in the elucidating of the strategies of the Masons and their ideas of social psychology, guided by their central text, SunTzu's The Art of War, I want to take a brief look at an aspect of the English language. If we begin, once again, with the listing for "compass" (the noun) in The Oxford English Dictionary, we see that meaning number 11c. says "A round about expression, a circumlotion". If we consider also that the long established universities of Oxford (publishers of the above mentioned and highly regarded, dictionary) and Cambridge, have numerous buildings made of stone, by stonemasons, the question of whether they have tried to assert their influence in these institutions in England arises.
The adoption of the hat or cap known as the "square cap", "mortar board", or "trencher", gives us a clue. The design of the hat could be described as a close fitting cap with a thin, flat, square board on top of it, all of which is covered in black felt, and with a tassel attached to the centre, the strands of which hang over the board. The second of these three names that have, over time, been given to the hat, "mortar board", seems to be a clue to its origin. A mortar board is used by stonemasons and bricklayers to carry the mortar that is put between the stones or bricks. The Oxford Dictionary (again being used as a history source) has its first dated reference to "square cap" as 1584. Construction of the stone buildings of Oxford University was mainly done in the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries, (1584 being in the !6th century). This suggests that the Masons were able to put their mark on the developing culture of the English universities by introducing the square cap, which was worn by students and professors as an everyday item of dress. Through their knowledge of the symbolism of such things as the square cap, the Masons were able to connect themselves to the institutional power of the universities. The symbolism of the tassel should be noted. The tassel that runs over the edge of the board seems to symbolize mortar dripping off the edge of a Mason's mortar board, or more probably, being tipped off. The normal way for Masons to get the mortar from the mortar board onto the stone blocks or bricks is with a Mason's trowel, so that an approximate measure of the amount of mortar being put in the one spot can be made. The symbolic suggestion of an image of mortar going off the edge of the mortar board then seems to refer to a deliberate action to tip mortar from high up, onto a person down below. It appears to symbolise the willingness of the Masons to commit crimes against the rest of society.
Having seen how the agenda of the Masons influenced the creation of the works of Shakespeare, it is logical that they closely followed the development of the publishing industry and wanted to assert their influence. Dictionary meaning number 11c. for "compass" (the Oxford Dictionary), suggests that one strategy they evolved was to interfere with the English language itself. Modern day linguists say that in the 19th century, English language grammarians introduced some of the grammatical rules of the Latin language (the language of ancient Rome), into English, because of their own educational bias. For several centuries Latin had been a popular language among the English aristocracy, so such a bias may have seemed to be within the normal range of people's expectations. But one grammatical rule in particular has been a severe imposition for English speakers. That being the rule which says that you should not end a sentence with a preposition. When an English speaker or writer would naturally end a sentence with a preposition, obeying this rule would, at times, require such a drastic alteration to a sentence that students could lose confidence in their ability to learn, especially to write, the language. Such a sentence, when it obeys the Latin rule, has a style that tends toward being a "round about expression, a circumlotion" (Oxford Dictionary meaning 11c. for "compass").
Therefore, it appears to have been (in my assessment), a deliberate strategy of the Masons to introduce this grammatical rule into the English language. By accepting teachers into their ranks and bonding other teachers to them by offering "protection", the Masons were able to make themselves the arbiters of writing style, and to introduce an element of sabotage at the personal level, regarding students efforts to fully master the English language. The main aim for this action being to influence which students would become the writers of books. Some students might not have had enough polish on their writing to write a book, but teachers could push other students to put what could be thought of as too much polish on their writing. Forced to obey the Latin rule which says to avoid ending a sentence with a preposition, students who were mastering the language could be pushed in the direction of circumlotion, a tangled style of writing. This might then prevent them from writing a book that might have had a wide readership. Some of these students might have gone on to become successful and honest lawyers and judges but their political and social influence would probably have been lessened by their writing style. (Today, in 2006, it is likely that this interference in education by the Masons continues in many places. At the kindergarten, or pre-school level, it appears that teachers who are bonded to the Masons introduce activities that encourage children to respond in a noisy and agitated way, as another form of sabotage at the personal level. The aim being to increase the level of conflict in society. Children might respond by running around making noise, with their mouths wide open [which the Masons see as a Masonic sign], as a regular thing. This may be contributing to the high number of children being diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Such teachers may, in the years that follow, be able to make a start at bonding children to the Masons, in operation with other school children. The other children would deliver information about "the mafia" in the playground and the teacher would confirm the information through signs, which have been identified by the other children earlier. In this way a child who is newly acquainted with the Masonic crime system might feel that there is no way out.
At the high school level, a likely tactic to bond a particular student to the Masons would be for the teacher or teachers to give high marks to the student over an extended period of time, to develop an expectation in the student and his or her parents, that the high marks will continue. Then, at some point in time, it would be made known to the student that the high marks are conditional; they must "be cool with the mafia"[this might be the way it is expressed].
In exams, students who are bonded to the Masons can embed Masonic signs in their writing style, such as dotting their "i" letters with a circle instead of a plain dot, or writing their "w" letters or "m" letters with points like the teeth of a saw and like the upper or lower edge of the symbol of the two crossed compasses, where most people put curves when writing these letters. They then hope that their exam paper is marked by a marker or markers who are bonded to the Masons.
With universities, looking again at the "square cap" hats, today, they are worn during graduation ceremonies at many universities, and it is a regular thing that it is mandatory that they be worn during those ceremonies, by those who choose to attend. The practice has widely arisen that the hats, along with a cloak, are hired to the students who attend the ceremony, for a considerable amount of money. It would be reasonable for this to be viewed as a skim, a con, or a trick, to grab a last sum of money from the students. Often, the office hiring the square caps and cloaks has a local monopoly on the hire of these items. So this, together with a requirement that they be worn during the ceremony, means the price can be high. It may then be that this experience of having been manoeuved into this expenditure, right around the time they think of as the beginning of their working lives, sets them to thinking that they will get the money back, from society, making them susceptible to participation in schemes of fraud, corruption and overcharging.)
