Nibiru and the Anunnaki by D.M.
As world events continue to unfold, more and more will witness the
ugliness of the predominance of bullying behaviour. The rulers of the
stronger nations are forcing their will upon the weaker nations and
will become more demanding and unreasonable. Nation states are using
an enormously oppressive power much like that of masters over slaves.
History is repeating itself – again. There was once a super race of
aliens known to the ancient people of the Earth as the Anunnaki. For
many reasons, the Anunnaki have been reduced in power today. This
race of beings thrives on conquest and enslavement of those who are
under them.
This is my account of the story of Nibiru and the Anunnaki:
In recent years, there have been many speculative writings about
Planet X, which is also known as Planet Nibiru. Most of these
writings are based somewhat on Zacharia Sitchin's book, The Twelfth
Planet. Sitchin, like Velikovsky and Darwin, used his respective
theories to support his claims. A question arises: Is Nibiru real?
The answer to that is a resounding "Yes".
There are those who believe that the Anunnaki of Nibiru are coming
back to Earth soon. They believe that Planet X is going to pass by
Earth, in May or June of 2003, on its 3,600 year orbit around our
sun. Such believers are terrified of the consequences that a close
pass by Nibiru might bring. They fear this will cause earthquakes,
tidal waves, severe flooding, food shortages due to climatic
conditions, diseases, meteor fire storms, volcanic eruptions and the
like. They are afraid that it will result in a great catastrophic
infliction of loss of life on Earth.
Planet Nibiru (Ne.Bi.Ru) is known by many names, such as: Planet X,
The Twelfth Planet, Marduk, Paradise, "Heaven" and the "Kingdom of
the Heavens" and etc. in various cultures. Although Nibiru has been
called The Twelfth Planet, technically it is not a planet of our
solar system. In fact, it is a planet from another solar system and
the star that was the sun of its solar system has been extinguished.
Nibiru was never visible from the Earth but the star which was the
centre of Nibiru's solar system was visible in the skies from Earth.
The orbiting pattern of Nibiru gave the Anunnaki the advantage of
having a mobile observatory from which they could observe and
investigate many other planets near its orbit.
The early people named Planet X as Nibiru in Sumerian, and Marduk in
Babylonian. It has been said that the ancient Mesopotamians believed
that Nibiru was the twelfth planet in our solar system and that it
was "heaven" where their gods resided and came from.
Nibirians, the people of Nibiru, are often referred to as Anunnaki,
Nephilim, Elohim (plural for god), and Mardukians. I shall refer to
them as Anunnaki as this is what the general population was known as
by the Sumerians and by those at the present time. The
word "Anunnaki" literally means "those who came from heaven to
earth". In the Old Testament these "heavenly" visitors are
called "Anakim".
Nibiru was populated by a reptilian super race and governed by elite
aristocracy known as the "Nefilim" in Hebrew, which means "they who
have come down from the heavens to earth". The Anunnaki were one of
the many technologically advanced alien races at the time. In fact,
their civilization was advanced far beyond most others of their time.
The Anunnaki called their home star (sun) "ZAOS".
The Anunnaki are a belligerent and conquering race. They are fierce,
evil, lustful, incestuous, bloodthirsty, deceitful, jealous and
domineering. They are also carnivorous and are often cannibalistic.
They also demand human sacrifices of virgins from those they conquer
and from their own kind whom they enslave.
If you imagine the worst characteristics you can conceive in Satan,
you have well concocted an impression of the Anunnaki. They
specialize in mind control. They also nearly perfected economic
control with the development of money and the usury system. They have
conducted extensive genetic engineering and have genetically
engineered among other things, a super reptilian race which the
Anunnaki called the "Ducaz".
The Ducaz are used for conquering and controlling the Nibirian
population and those of other conquered races. Thus, the Ducaz are
Reptilians. There are different types of Reptilians amongst them.
Their masters, the Anunnaki Elite, are not the Ducaz. Like anything
associated with the Anunnaki, there is a rigid, inequitable and
regimented class structure amongst the Ducaz.
The Reptilians, or Ducaz were sent by their "masters", the Nephilim
or Elohim to fight in wars with other alien races and to serve as
their spies, bodyguards and police force. There are many factions
amongst the Anunnaki. One of the most bitter enemies of the Ducaz
call themselves the "Pers-sires", a group of aliens for which I
coined the word "Vulturites" many years ago. They are called
Vulturites not because they look like vultures, as some have claimed.
In fact, they don't look like that at all! There are very apt reasons
why I have called them Vulturites which I will not go into in this
discussion.
Ironically, the Pers-sires are just a different faction of the
Anunnaki race. However, the Ducaz (Reptilians) and the Pers-sires
(Vulturites) have always been bitter enemies even to this day. The
descendents of these two groups are now on Earth vying for supremacy
of the world. Many of these are currently in political, financial,
scientific, religious, legal, medical (especially in blood banks),
entertainment, military, agrarian or commercial positions, and also
in the sex industry. Most of these aliens are not consciously aware
of their alien origins.
The Anunnaki are flesh-and-blood, biological beings with abounding
pride, arrogance, uncontrollable urges for adult and child sex
partners (whether they be willing or forced participants), and they
have a great appetite for conquest and control. This warlike race has
an insatiable thirst for control of other beings and dominion over
other races, and the less privileged classes of the Anunnaki. The
Anunnaki developed and imposed complex, oppressive cast and gender
systems. They are misogynists. That was why they eliminated the
worship of the Divine Mother of the early people on Earth whom they
conquered when they arrived. There was so much resistance to the
elimination of the worship of the Divine Mother that the Anunnaki set
up replacement "mothers" for various cultures such as the `earth
mother', `mother nature' and thereafter further corrupted the Divine
Mother's image by falsely attributing Her with lustful, vengeful and
jealous qualities. The interpretation of Kali is one of those false
attributes.
Due to a great collision, the Earth and the planets and moons of our
solar system were severely affected. Nibiru too suffered great damage
as a result of this celestial collision. This caused the Anunnaki to
come to Earth in search of a permanent home. They did not come to
search for physical gold, as Sitchin hypothesizes. Oddly, gold is not
a native mineral to Earth, so the Anunnaki would not be expecting it
on Earth. Nor did they come to Earth to mine for gold to make a
shield to protect their ailing atmospheric conditions on Nibiru (If
they did, they did not succeed in saving their planet, because their
planet was destroyed). What appears in space is really the shadow of
Nibiru, many light years away. However, the Anunnaki were delighted
to find gold on earth because they used it for ornamentation. They
also imported many slaves to mine the gold, and they used many of the
Anunnaki lower classes to do the same.
Since their home, Nibiru, was destroyed, the Anunnaki Elite and their
cadre of attendants were forced to become transient, with the
majority of them living in a huge spacecraft (like a city) that
orbited the Earth. By then, the other Anunnaki races were already
placed in different worlds that they had conquered, including Earth,
Mars, and the rest of our solar system. They were also interspersed
throughout the Orion and the Pleiades systems. Thus it can be seen
that the Anunnaki are extraordinarily powerful and they were feared
by many. The Anunnaki Elite and those who were permitted to travel
moved from the orbiting spacecraft in smaller shuttlecrafts to visit
Earth below. They also sent freighter class crafts to Earth for
commercial and military purposes. Inter-planetary slave trade was
prevalent and lucrative. It is no wonder that the ancient people
feared their gods who they claimed lived in the sky.
The majority of the earthlings now are genetically and symbolically
part of the off-planet civilization of the Anunnaki. You will see why
I say that as the story unfolds.
The Anunnaki Elite of Nibiru are genetic manipulators who know how to
create artificial life forms. In their arrogance they tried to play
God. Their highly advanced technology and their overbearing size and
strength made them nearly invincible in the eyes of the early people.
Thus, the Anunnaki Elite were seen and worshiped as gods by them. The
Anunnaki Elite have sometimes been referred to as the Nordics or
Blondes. They are tall, robust, full of vigour, athletic and usually
of fair complexion. Their symbol of status and power is the winged
disc that represents their home star ZAOS. These Anunnaki Elite were
later known as Elohim and Nephilim. These evil Elohim must not be
confused with the Divine Elohim of the True Creation.
The Anunnaki Elite (the Nephilim) created many religions so they
could be worshiped as gods; this gives them great satisfaction. The
Anunnaki developed religions by corrupting any spirituality they
observed in the indigenous people of the Earth. They employed
religions as a powerful means of controlling the indigenous people.
Different religions were set up with doctrines in direct opposition
to one another in order to breed disharmony, distrust, confusion, war
and arrogance.
The Anunnaki planted hybrids from other worlds on Earth when they
came. Not long after their arrival, they began to spread themselves
as far and as wide as they could and took control of sections of the
planet by genetic engineering. They forced the indigenous people out
of their own establishments and forced them into total submission.
They used the indigenous people for controlled experimentation of
biological breeding. Today, there are aliens who abduct earthlings
for cloning and they also mutilate animals. Most of these abductions
and assaults are carried out by Anunnaki Remnants (a term I use to
indicate those Anunnaki who were stranded on Earth).
As mentioned earlier the Anunnaki Elite conquered and enslaved the
primitive people who were already residing on Earth. Some claim that
Jesus was a hybrid from Nibiru, which maliciously implies that He was
an Anunnaki. This is patently false. Jesus is in fact, an Avatar of
the Light who "incarnated" here to remind and to re-awaken
the "sleeping" Divine beings of their true Divine origin.
In Genesis 6:2-4 it is recorded by the Anunnaki (who wrote most of
the Old Testament) that "the sons of God" (the Anunnaki males) "saw
the daughters of men that they were fair". In developing this
doctrine, the Anunnaki were trying to show that the "sons of God"
were lured to Earth and corrupted by the indigenous women of Earth.
In fact, the women of Earth at that time were purer than the males
and they were revered by the males because earthlings' spirituality
still retained closeness to the Divine Mother. The Anunnaki had to
twist this to make it appear that women were a gender that could not
be trusted and that they must be oppressed by the males. The "sons of
God" abused and horribly mistreated the indigenous women of the Earth
to set the example of a misogynistic model for the indigenous men of
the Earth to follow. It was very critical to the plans of the
Anunnaki to switch the gender of God from Mother to Father.
Anunnaki chauvinism has caused women to be subjugated to men and
treated as their "footstools" in many cultures including the Arab,
Asian, Jewish and Western societies. In Isaiah 66:1 is found the
saying "Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth
is my footstool . . .". In Ephesians 5:22-24 Paul, who was an
incarnated Anunnaki, wrote:
Wives submit yourselves onto your husbands, as onto the Lord. For the
husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the
church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore, as the church
is subject onto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in
every thing.
Therefore according to the teaching of Paul, the wives are the
footstools and the husbands are the thrones. In one usurping stroke,
Paul, on behalf of the Anunnaki, subordinated all Christian women to
an inferior status. Many churches equate the teaching of Paul to the
teachings of Christ. This is blasphemy!
As evidence that the Anunnaki authored much of the Old Testament and
also corrupted it, let us consider how they have manipulated the
writings of Moses, who was one of the incarnated Attas of Light. In
Exodus 24:7 is found a passage telling the people that they must "be
obedient" to the blood sacrifice. Further, in Numbers 27:20, Moses
was supposed to have said that the people must "be obedient" to
Joshua. Again in Deuteronomy 4:30 Moses supposedly commanded his
people to "be obedient" to God's voice in the tribulations and the
latter days.
Yet again, the Anunnaki purposely corrupted the sayings of Moses in
Deuteronomy 8:20, where one is told that one must "be obedient" to
God or:
As the nations which the Lord destroyth before your face, so shall ye
perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the Lord
your God.
These cannot be the words of the true God of Love. These are the
words of the Demiurge's chief agents – the Anunnaki. The true God
does not punish people or nations or any thing.
The only other time that the words "be obedient" appear in the Old
Testament is in 2 Samuel 22:25 where it is found that "Strangers
shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall be
obedient unto me". Clearly, these are the words of the slave masters,
the Anunnaki.
There are only three other occasions where the words "be obedient"
appear in the Bible, and all these are attributed to Paul, the
Anunnaki.
In 2 Corinthians 2:9 Paul directs his (Paul's NOT Jesus') followers
to be obedient in all things.
Ephesians 6:5 reads: "Servants, be obedient to them that are your
masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling and
singleness of your heart, as unto Christ". Is not this awful?
The last time the words "be obedient" appear in the Christian Bible
is in Titus 2:9 where Paul says, "Exhort servants to be obedient unto
their own masters, and to please them well in all things…" Clearly,
Paul was a representative for a god of terror and a slave master's
henchman.
As can be seen by the examples of the quote "be obedient" it can be
seen that Jesus tried to undo the teachings of the Anunnaki in the
Old Testament but Paul corrupted Jesus' teachings and in so doing,
returned the "god" of fear and terror to power.
The creation myths throughout the world are similar in their major
thrusts. Why is this so? This is because the various creation myths
were spread by the Anunnaki as they migrated around the world. The
religions set up by the Anunnaki to control and manipulate the
populations incorporated the various creation myths. These religions
are not based upon love, they are based upon fear.
Wherever the Anunnaki went and conquered, they consolidated the
people into densely populated communities so they could better force
the people to work for them and to control them – physically,
emotionally, mentally, spiritually and economically – as slaves. They
control by instilling fear and keeping the people ignorant. These
patterns still exist today. However, they are more subtle and often
appear more attractive today than they did in the past. Thus in this
sense, humans were slaves to the Anunnaki before, and they remain so
today.
The Anunnaki introduced the adornment of the body with jewellery.
They also promoted very expensive tastes that would force people into
economic slavery. They introduced polygamy, incest and paedophilia,
which are hallmarks of the Anunnaki. Such traits are noted in various
cultures, including the ancient Egyptian royalty and the patriarchs
of the Old Testament who followed the precepts ordered by the
Anunnaki.
In many senses, we in this technologically advanced age, are slaves
to the modern commodities, governments, economic systems, cultures,
religions, customs, mores and etc. But most importantly we are slaves
to this Virtual Reality, blinded by its subtleties and falsehoods and
its simulation of the Divine Realms.
The Anunnaki first visited the Earth about 500,000 years ago. By
then, they had already conquered the Pleiades and Mars and many other
worlds.
After some trials, the first wave of successful genetic engineering
occurred on Earth about 300,000 years ago. The Anunnaki introduced
many alien races that they had conquered and implanted them on Earth.
They also kidnapped a special race called the Race of Women and
brought them to Earth. This race of women suffered greatly under the
suppression and abuse of the Anunnaki. Various alien races from other
worlds were brought to Earth to be used as slaves by the Anunnaki
Elite. They also kidnapped aliens from other worlds and brought them
here as slaves. Some were sold for hard labour, some for sex, some
for soldiering and etc.
Through genetic engineering, women were made physically inferior to
men in stature, strength and speed. Even in occupations where
strength and speed are irrelevant, such as in the clergy, law,
medicine, politics, commerce, science, etc., women are greatly
disadvantaged and obstructed from participating even up to this day.
This shows the extent of the chauvinistic influence of the Anunnaki.
Apart from genetic engineering on humans, there was also similar work
carried out on various species including the birds, reptiles, fish,
beasts and plants. The Anunnaki also practise bestiality. They
created monstrosities, some of which are legendary, some were half-
animal, half-human, others were half-bird or half-fish and half-
human.
The Genesis story was created and recorded by the civilization that
was re-started by the Anunnaki. The Sumerians were amongst the
earliest ones to possess recordings on tablets describing the history
of the Anunnaki on Earth which was in accordance to what the Anunnaki
dictated.
The advanced civilization of Sumeria did not evolve over many, many
thousands of years. Instead it was dressed up almost instantly by the
introduction of many facets of civilization by the Anunnaki,
including – legal system, social order, economic models, religions,
science, mathematics, weights and measures, writing, literature,
music, the performing arts, cosmology, painting, sculpture,
astronomy, astrology, medicine, animal husbandry, domestication of
plants, homeopathy, culinary skills, art, entertainment and etc.
Sumeria became a civilization that other backward societies envied
and feared.
About 35,000 years ago, the Cro-Magnon man took over the Earth from
the Neanderthal man. The Anunnaki Elite murdered the entire
Neanderthal population after they had finished using the Neanderthals
as specimens for genetic experiments. Homo sapiens were the result of
the second wave of genetic engineering. This second wave allowed the
Homo sapiens to procreate with the civilian Anunnaki.
As time went by things got out of control, with monstrosities
abounding and many half-human half-beasts were running amok. In the
heyday of Atlantis, there was space travel for the privileged
classes. Teleportation was also common in those days for the
privileged classes. As the Atlantean "slaves" became more and more
advanced, they began to disobey their "gods", the Anunnaki Elite.
This concerned their masters. Thus a decision was made by them to
destroy Atlantis. Some of the Anunnaki Elite and their chosen
attendants fled the Earth in huge spacecrafts and went to other
planets, such as Mars, and even to other systems. Most of the
Anunnaki were left behind. Upon fleeing the Earth, the Anunnaki Elite
blew up Atlantis and destroyed it, hoping to kill all of the
remaining Anunnaki and the rest of the inhabitants.
However, some of the Anunnaki slaves discovered the plans of the
Anunnaki Elite to destroy Atlantis. Some of these slaves were able to
escape before the destruction, taking with them some of the
knowledge, artifacts, technology, writings, weapons and culture of
Atlantis to various parts of the Earth.
Another reason the Anunnaki Elite decided to blow up Atlantis was
because they were under extreme pressure from the investigation of
the Attas (the Amoebic Rescuers of the Light who are like space-
patrol). The Anunnaki Remnants who escaped Atlantis began
constructing cultures which we now know as Aztecan, Inca, Mayan, and
most importantly the ancient Egyptian. There are many Anunnaki on
planet Earth today. Some are the descendents of the survivors from
Atlantis who escaped before it was blown up.
After the destruction of Atlantis, the third wave of genetic
engineering performed by the higher classed Anunnaki Remnants took
place about 20,000 years ago. One group of Anunnaki Remnants built
the pyramids by employing massive amounts of forced human labour and
advanced technology. These sites were used as launching pads for
spacecrafts for the privileged classes of the Anunnaki Remnants.
The early Egyptians who built the great pyramids and the Sphinx were
also Anunnaki Remnants from Atlantis whom the Anunnaki Elite had
intended to annihilate when they destroyed Atlantis. When they
returned to Earth after destroying Atlantis, they saw Anunnaki
Remnants' cultures.
The rulers and kings of various cultures were usually appointed by
the Anunnaki Elite. When the Anunnaki Elite fled and the Anunnaki
Remnants took over, the Remnants adopted this pattern of appointing
kingships. This is why many cultures, including the Chinese,
Japanese, Egyptian and Western European followed the order of the
divine right of kings.
Thousands of years ago, when the Anunnaki Elite returned to Earth
planning to re-start their dominion on Earth, they were surprised to
find the Anunnaki Remnant cultures blossoming. This concerned them
greatly as they thought they were losing control of the Earth to
their former slaves.
In desperation, the Anunnaki Elite set upon re-taking control of the
Earth. They did this by causing a deluge which catastrophically
destroyed almost all evidence of the former cultures. Only the huge
monuments such as the Sphinx, the pyramids, the Ziggurats, etc
survived the flood. Nearly all the huge monuments around the world
were created at the behest of the Anunnaki Elite or later, the
Anunnaki Remnants.
Fearful that there would be Anunnaki Remnants left after the deluge
who could rapidly re-construct the culture, especially in Egypt, the
Anunnaki Elite took the tremendous risk of selecting an area of the
Earth onto which they could instantaneously deposit a culture that
would be far superior to that of any tribe on Earth. This emergency
plan was executed in Sumeria.
Sumeria developed almost instantaneously because of an extremely
urgent situation. The Anunnaki Elite were losing influence over the
Earth to the Anunnaki Remnants of Atlantis who had escaped, amongst
other places, to Egypt and to the Americas. These Anunnaki Remnants
were developing the Egyptian, Aztecan, Mayan and Inca cultures and
could attain dominance if left to their own devices. Therefore the
Anunnaki Elite took the extreme risky decision to create a super
culture complete with written language and records in Sumeria.
At this point, the most powerful of the Attas of the Light interceded
and captured a great number of the Anunnaki Elite. Many of the
Anunnaki Elite fled the Earth yet again in their spacecrafts and
returned to Orion and the Pleiades systems. These once proud
and "mighty" Anunnaki Elite are now nothing but fugitives cowering in
hiding.
The Genesis story was used to control the people and to force them to
worship the Anunnaki Elite as gods from the sky. The story of Genesis
is not the story of the True Divine Creation. The story of Genesis is
in fact, very recent when compared to the scheme of things, so how
can it be a creation story?
There were already various groups of races of aliens and earthlings
on Earth when the Anunnaki Elite first took control of a portion of
the Earth. There were battles among the various groups for supremacy,
but the Anunnaki Elite were too powerful for them. The Sumerian
tablets record events of so-called origins of man and creation that
were really events of the beginning of the Anunnaki Elite's latest
colonization of the Earth. The conquerors themselves wrote the
tablets. Thus, what was recorded on the tablets by the Sumerians
dictated by their so-called gods, was self-serving. Through past
experience, the Anunnaki had seen how religions could control the
populations of various worlds. This is an important tool that they
use for control.
The Old Testament is dedicated to Yahweh. It is very male orientated
because the Anunnaki were extremely upset with Mother Goddess worship
and wanted to eliminate any mention of Her. The Old Testament
acknowledges the presence of many Anunnaki "gods" on Earth in early
times. The Genesis story is about the spread of humankind through
generations following Adam and Eve and the story of the "divine's"
disenchantment with humankind that preceded the deluge.
In the Sumerian texts there was mention of the people of the Shem
(meaning spaceship). The Anunnaki were the people of the Shem, and
they came down to Earth and copulated with primitive earthlings. This
is recorded in the Genesis story.
The Anunnaki Elite also started a new, highly advanced culture in
Babylon. As always, they destroy cultures and murder the populations
whenever they get out of hand, then they re-start elsewhere.
Today the Anunnaki Remnants are planning to re-establish
the "majesty" of bygone days when the Anunnaki Elite had a complete
tyranny over the Earth. They plan to re-start the world again. The
Anunnaki Remnants, with the help of humans as well as the incarnated
Anunnaki in human bodies, have built massive underground bunkers and
railway lines that are a part of their structure for allowing them
and their cadre of attendants to survive the catastrophes that they
believe the fugitive Anunnaki Elite are planning for the Earth. They
cannot leave the planet in spacecrafts because they were left with
limited resources after the Anunnaki Elite escaped with all of the
technologically advanced spacecrafts.
The Anunnaki Remnants think that they can select their own chosen
ones (like their masters did) and take refuge with them in
underground bunkers during the period of catastrophes. They plan to
take a whole garrison of "slaves" underground. These will include
soldiers, police, fire fighters, cooks, entertainers, beauticians,
doctors, scientists, etc. In the aftermath, they will use them on the
surface, as before. Most importantly, they will use their own new
breed of clones to populate the Earth. The Earth population is being
programmed to accept this underground scenario as can be seen in
movies like Deep Impact. These Anunnaki think that their masters, the
Anunnaki Elite, will be returning as before, and they also think that
they will have pleased them with the way that they have influenced
the Earth.
But the Anunnaki Remnants' plan has been thwarted. Their evil desire
to destroy much of the life and the culture on the surface of the
Earth will fail. In the aftermath, they expect to find the Earth
inhabited with only a relatively few survivors whom they would easily
subdue with the weapons, technology and military forces that they
secured underground during the catastrophes. They hope their masters
will restart all cultures with themselves deified and served by the
people they plan to enslave.
The ones chosen to continue in their new civilization are humans and
clones who have specially chosen characteristics for blind obedience.
They think their masters will once again be the literal gods of the
world.
The Anunnaki Remnants are now amongst us. They are our current puppet
masters who manipulate and control the world. At present, the cloning
of humans, animals and plants are common activities with these aliens
in our midst. This diabolical scheme is not known to the general
public and it will be vehemently denied by the world leaders and
their minions.
Thus, for a long, long time the Earth has been a planet run by
slavers!
The Anunnaki on Earth are awaiting reinforcements from their masters,
the Anunnaki Elite who escaped temporarily to other solar systems
when the Attas were after them. However, the reinforcements will not
be coming to Earth this time because the Attas have restricted their
reinforcements, so the existing Anunnaki on Earth are stuck.
The Sun Cruisers that have been detected recently are part of The
Rescue Team from the Light. They are not of Eridanean origin as has
been speculated by some. The Sun Cruisers are on standby because the
Light anticipates that the Anunnaki Elite will attempt to return to
the Earth to cause all manner of catastrophes, and to re-supply the
Anunnaki Remnants. However, should any Anunnaki Elite attempt to come
to Earth, they will encounter invincible forces from the Light.
The Anunnaki Remnants are confused by the clearing of the planet by
such means as global warming, volcanoes, fires, wars and etc. They
thought that these are the signs of the return of the Anunnaki Elite
to Earth. However, they are now beginning to suspect their masters
cannot get through the Light's security and so the Anunnaki Remnants
are becoming terrified to the point that world leaders are now
irrational.
Already there are those who are so deluded by the programming of the
Anunnaki Remnants that they are saying things like "this Earth is a
prison but it can be turned into a paradise". The Anunnaki have
incarnated in human forms. Some are also in the astral. The Anunnaki
have great influence over the astral world also. Many messages
channelled today are deceitful messages from the Anunnaki.
The Light has waited for this very time to perform Its Final Rescue
of all the Viable beings of Light from all levels and from all types
of consciousness who are trapped in this evil dimension.
THE PROCESS IS WELL UNDERWAY!

The good news is that the precious elements occur in herbs and numerous vegetables. Grapes, for example, can
be a primary source. A four ounce glass of Concord grape juice frozen concentrate can yield 127 mg of rhodium
and 48 mg of iridium (more than an equivalent amount of virtually any other food). A key to the grape’s
concentration of these precious metals is apparently connected to the fact that the grape roots go so much deeper
into the Earth, where there is, apparently, a much better source of the elements. This explains why the deepest
mines on Earth are gold mines, and furthermore that volcanoes are also a source. This implies that the interior of
the Earth seems to be a primary “manufacturer” of the elements, and thus the ash from a volcanic eruption leaves
downwind crop fields enormously fertile for years.
