Dr. James Luther Adams, my ethics professor at Harvard Divinity School, told us that when we were his age, he was then close to 80, we would all be fighting the "Christian fascists."
New Apostolic Leaders, "Christian" fascists, have burned Native American objects in Hawaii and I assume Oklahoma. But first, when would "'Christian' fascists" be an entirely appropriate term? When they are "without ethical or legal restraints" and show demonstrative signs of redemptive violence.
''A form of political behavior marked by obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation or victimhood and by compensatory cults of unity, energy and purity, in which a mass-based party of committed nationalist militants, working in uneasy but effective collaboration with traditional elites, abandons democratic liberties and pursues with redemptive violence and without ethical or legal restraints goals of internal cleansing and external expansion.''
Can anyone designated an "unlawful enemy combatant" be detained indefinitely, even a U.S. citizen?
In describing who may be tried by military commissions, the MCA defines "unlawful enemy combatant" very broadly, so that it could encompass:
* U.S. citizens picked up in the United States,
* any other person picked up anywhere in the world,
* people who are far from any battlefield,
* people who have not have engaged directly in any hostilities against the United States,
* people who may not even have committed terrorist acts,
* people whose activities have no connection to war or armed conflict,
* anyone determined to be one by tribunals established by the President or the Secretary of Defense.
The MCA does not explicitly authorize indefinite detention. In fact, the principal drafters of the MCA, Senators Graham, Warner and McCain, specifically noted that the Act's definition of "unlawful enemy combatant" applies only for purposes of trials by the military commissions. However, there is nothing in the Act that would require "unlawful enemy combatants" to be brought to trial. Without such a requirement, the new law leaves open the possibility that people may continue to be held indefinitely.
The definition of "unlawful enemy combatant" also raises serious concerns because it blurs the most fundamental distinction the laws of war make between combatants and non-combatants, and between circumstances where ordinary criminal laws protect individual rights, and where the special laws of war apply. The administration has argued that the entire world is a battlefield in "the global war against terrorism," which it argues is a new kind of war, where few rules apply. Congressional approval of this broad "enemy combatant" definition reinforces that view.
Some attempted redemptive violence has arrived and some successful redemptive violence has occurred, the former and possibly the latter used a technique by the New Apostolic Reformation: Spiritual Mapping.
The arrests of members of a Michigan-based "Christian" militia group should convince doubters that there is good reason to worry about right-wing, anti-government extremism -- and potential violence -- in the Age of Obama.
I put the word Christian in quotes because anyone who plots to assassinate law enforcement officers, as a federal indictment alleges members of the Hutaree militia did, is no follower of Christ.

So, what are some specific instances of cultural genocide the "Christian" fascists might accomplish or have accomplished against the American Indian in the United States?
One of the intentions of HEALING for the NATIVES MINISTRIES is "dismantling of the cement tomb over the mass grave" at Wounded Knee.
Furthermore, "serving the Lord" also takes the form of "dismantling of the cement tomb over the mass grave" at Wounded Knee.

THE HEALING OF WOUNDED KNEE
Ministering to Native people has exposed a gaping hole in the soul of Indian Country. This festering wound is a result of the massacre at Wounded Knee in South Dakota and other atrocities. The Spirit of God has given me a prophetic picture of the healing of Wounded Knee and the massacer site; including the dismantling of the cement tomb over the mass grave and restoring the site to an original earthen mound with wild flowers and prairie grass and a lodge pole burying scaffold, in addition, the Holy Spirit has given us access to certain items that I believe God will use to bring healing to Wounded Knee.

The partnership of Native Ministers with the American Church will ignite revival and thrust the Body of Christ into all the world ending with the salvation of Israel.
Spiritual Warfare necessitates proximity and location as military strategy. Specific instances of cultural genocide the "Christian" fascists have committed are burning "objects that were worshiped as part of their native religions" in Maui and "the Baal caves in the panhandle of Oklahoma" being desecrated. Both promote "act(s) of smashing pottery that depicted Baal and Leviathan."
"Pastor Jim Marocco... planted a church on the island of Maui. He had people bring and burn occult items, specifically objects that were worshiped as part of their native religions. After the objects were destroyed, his church experienced great growth." (Deliver Us from Evil, page 225)
When the first colonizers landed on the Ka Pae 'Aina (the Hawaiian Archipelago) in 1778, they were greeted by a people who introduced themselves as the Kanaka Maoli-Kanaka meaning "human being," Maoli meaning "real" or "genuine." But to the colonizers they were "naked savages." Almost immediately the process of stripping the "real" people of their land, resources, and culture began. Kekuni Blaisdell, a Kanaka Maoli from the island of O'ahu, has spent his life promoting the spiritual and physical health of the Kanaka Maoli and restoring their nation.
Running against former Democratic Congressional Representative Neal Abercrombie to be Hawaii's next governor, Republican Lt. Governor James "Duke" Aiona has disavowed his relationship with an international evangelical ministry called the International Transformation Network, whose leaders advocate burning religious artifacts and native art.
John Benefiel then informed the gathering of the history of Baal in the region. He shared the story of the Baal caves in the panhandle of Oklahoma where cave drawings depict the presence of those who worshiped Baal. There were drawings of Baal (the Sun god), Anubis and calendars which marked out the equinox (the time established for worshiping Baal). The inscriptions dedicated the land to Baal. An internet article on the caves can be read at http://www2.privatei.com/~bart... Jay Swallow presented his testimony. Jay is an apostle of the Native Americans who has tremendous authority over the spiritual issues of our land.

Jay taught on the unholy trio of Baal, Asherah and Leviathan. He spoke of their proliferation into the land. His teaching led us up to the prophetic act of smashing pottery that depicted Baal and Leviathan. Knowing that this authority lies with those who dwelt on this land first, it was necessary that it be carried out by a Native American.
Nearly one century and a half after the death of Roman Nose, Apostle Jay Swallow is on the War Council, has accepted the apology from the United States on behalf of all Tribal Nations, wars against evil, possesses medicine to make rain, and has divine authority to commit cultural genocide.
In addition to "Jay is an apostle of the Native Americans who has tremendous authority over the spiritual issues of our land," he aids in running a Military training camp in Oklahoma.
What will Jay Swallow do next, since "authority lies with those who dwelt on this land first, it was necessary that it be carried out by a Native American," and "His teaching led us up to the prophetic act of smashing pottery that depicted Baal and Leviathan?"
Dr. Jay has proved his authority over land issues - dealing with four things that defile the land: false worship, sexual immorality, broken covenants and the shedding of innocent blood. He has been called from Fiji to Hawaii, from Argentina to Canada and many points in between. We are honored that Dr. Jay has taken an interest in San Antonio.
So, since cultural genocide that "Christian" fascists are committing by destroying Native American cultural objects may not be taken seriously by some -
On and after August 11, 1978, it shall be the policy of the United States to protect and preserve for American Indians their inherent right of freedom to believe, express, and exercise the traditional religions of the American Indian, Eskimo, Aleut, and Native Hawaiians, including but not limited to access to sites, use and possession of sacred objects, and the freedom to worship through ceremonials and traditional rites.
- it's time to enforce the law for the next generations.
