Dateline: Response to: Bohos Open Grove to Homeless"

You are joking - I mean, you can't be Serious...
Altogether, a good piece of Kitch. Kudoos to ya...
I liked in particular the image from Goya, at the bottom of the Page:

But how about a Serious, Possible Solution for the Homeless Problem?

- Privatize Mare Island, that is, Open it to Occupation by the General Public and by the Homeless. Let them Camp, in Designated Areas, in Tents & Tar-paper Shacks - as in the "Hoovervilles" of Old, Eighty years Ago. Let them Dwell, Also in some of the very <link rel="File-List" href="file:///Users/marko/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Clipboard/msoclip1/01/clip_clip_filelist.xml">  <style>  </style> Adequate<o:p></o:p> > and also, very Empty,  Apartments, and Living Quarters, that Remain, from Old, Wartime, Navy, Days...

No, I do not mean, by the use of the word "Privatize," to make it available for any Corporation larger than, say, Ten Stock-holders, to buy a Portion of Mare Island from the Federal Government. =OR= More than Four Solid Acres of Earth, on the whole Place...=OR= For that matter, any couple, or Family, to Own more than Four Acres, Total, of "New Mares Island"

Let there be no big Corporations there! NONE AT ALL, SAY, OVER TEN Stockholders at the Maximum! Let it be written into the Civil Law Code, for this Place:

-This "New Mares Island," Let it be written that No Corporation having more than ten shareholders =OR= twelve board members=Whichever is Least= shall have any Part, nor ever be able to own any Part, of this Sovereign Territory of "New Mares Island." Period...

I just mean that it should be sold off, by the Government, to small-holders, who can start small businesses, or run small Hospitals as Doctor/Nurse Collectives, & small Factories, and Productive Works which, in turn can employ - at least Some...

... of the homeless families, and <link rel="File-List" href="file:///Users/marko/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Clipboard/msoclip1/01/clip_clip_filelist.xml">  <style>  </style> Perennially<o:p></o:p>  homeless Viet Nam veterans, and their old girl friends, who may eventually show up there, show up there... ... ...

...By the way, I'm the original smart Alec who wrote the Original Dad blamed Article just mildly, mind ya, just surmising, that "The Owl of Bohemia bears "too much of a <link rel="File-List" href="file:///Users/marko/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Clipboard/msoclip1/01/clip_clip_filelist.xml">  <style>  </style> Resemblance to the ancient Canaanite Idol "gott", "MOLOCH"to be taken sae lightly, nor be dismissed sae quickly, and, wi 'out <link rel="File-List" href="file:///Users/marko/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Clipboard/msoclip1/01/clip_clip_filelist.xml">  <style>  </style> Prejudice<o:p></o:p>  - Words to that effect, and similar, also, in Constancy...

[I]Bohemian Bigwigs Perpetuate Canaanite Cult



Although the 1992 Republican Convention in Houston touted the virtues of "Family Values", Judeo-Christian Civilization, the Bible, and Main Street, in a transparent strategy to equate Religion with the Reagan/Bush phenomenon, it is an Open Secret on the Russian River in Sonoma County, California, that when Reagan and Bush and other Republican movers and shakers meet, and let their hair down at
the annual Summer encampment at Bohemian Grove, another tune is played.

The 2800-acre Bohemian Grove, property of the Bohemian Club of San Francisco, is
situated on the south shore of the Russian River, near Monte Rio, four miles west
of Guerneville.

"Bohemians," "Bohos" for short, roughly 2500 in number, bi-partisan in politics,
although mostly Republican and representing a spread of ruling class and upper
echelon bagmen, constitute perhaps the most exclusive men's club in the Western
Hemisphere, a veritable Who's Who of corporate board members, bankers,
entertainers, faded literati, World-Class politicians, and heads
of Government.

In stark contrast to the warmed-over Moral Majority pabulum that was mixed and
served at the Republican Convention, vacationing Bohemians under the shadow of
giant Redwoods, hunker down to a different species of mixed drinks. "Family
Values" also are left behind, or perhaps temporarily forgotten, as procurers for
both female, and male prostitutes, on "the river" do a booming business, and
Bohos let it all hang out.

But perhaps the most jarring contrast of all, is the contradiction between the
pious hand-over-heart singing of the Star Spangled Banner (ritual for public
consumption), that occurs at Party conventions, and the secret ritual that is the
real "turn on" for the ruling class habitues of the Grove. For, when the rich and
powerful "gather at the river," it is not to pray, and sign Psalms and Hymns.
However, let it not be said that these men have no Religion.

Every July, the Summer encampment at Bohemian Grove is opened with a remarkable
commencement ceremony. I quote from a January 1981 article by William Domhoff *
in The Progressive :

"...A ceremony called the Cremation of Care, which takes place at the base of a
forty-foot [Ferro-cement] Owl... made more resplendent by the mottled forest
mosses that cover much of it.

"The ceremony (https://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Religions/Wicca%20&%20Witchcraft/bohemian_grove_exposed.htm)... involves the burning of an effigy named Dull Care, who
symbolizes the burdens and responsibilities these harried Bohemians now wish to
shed temporarily. More than 100 Bohemians take part in the ceremony as priests,
acolytes, torch-bearers, brazier bearers, boatmen, and woodland voices, but
despite many flowery speeches, they can't get the fire started... the perplexed
Bohemians must turn to the mighty Owl for advice:

"O thou, great symbol of all mortal wisdom, Owl of Bohemia, we do beseech thee,
grant us thy counsel," intones the high priest.

"An aura of light creates a glow around the Owl's head, and then the big bird
reveals its wisdom. The High Priest must light the pyre with the flame from the
Lamp of Fellowship, located conveniently enough on the "Altar of Bohemia" at the
base of the Shrine..."

I will add, that the "priests, acolytes, and torch bearers" who participate in
this ceremony are clad in Red and Orange hooded robes that bear a strong
resemblance to the hooded regalia of the Ku Klux Klan.

Jack Anderson, writing in the Sunday supplement, Parade Magazine, on February 22,
1981, disarmingly stated
[I]"...the participants in this strange ceremony were not
part of a secret conspiracy or far-out cult that had infiltrated the nation's
power structure. They were simply enjoying a midsummer frolic at the world's
most exclusive summer camp..."Should the Cremation of Care ceremony so quickly be dismissed, without prejudice,
given the occultic nature of the ceremony, and its historical antecedents?

The Cremation of Care ceremony bears too strong a resemblance to the ancient
Canaanite worship of the idol, Molech (https://www.infowars.com/bg_photo_gallery.html), to be so readily dismissed. The "Owl of
Bohemia," like the ancient Ammonite idol, Molech, is a towering, larger-than-life
edifice.

The bronze Molech was hollow inside, whereas the Owl is solid, and the altar
stands before it. Molech worship (https://www.paleoprogressives.org/010105grove12.jpg) consisted of the ritualized sacrifice of the
first-born infant son of every Ammonite newlywed family. Building a fire in the
belly of the beast, getting it good and stoked, so that the flames poured out of
the mouth, the high priest mounted a scaffold and tossed the first born male
child into an aperture in Molech's chest, to the incantation of drums and the
droned liturgy of the priests of Molech.

Technically, Owl worship, as it is practiced at the Grove is somewhat different
from Molech worship. Peter Weiss, writing in Spy Magazine in November 1989,
states,

"Bohemian Club literature ... pious on this score ... boasts that the Cremation
of Care ceremony derives from Druid rites, medieval Christian liturgy, the Book
of Common Prayer, Shakespearean drama, and nineteenth century American lodge
rites."

Does the Bohos' sugar-coating of the ritual of the Cremation of Care, for what
seems to be purposes of Public Relations, obscure a darker, psychological aspect
of the rite? Are we faced with the continuity of a tradition of Sacrificial
Rite, even on a symbolic level? This is significant in, and of itself. Moreover,
persistent rumors and reports from various sources, tell of bizarre rituals,
child snuff films, (films in which a child is murdered) and other horrors taking
place within the confines of The Grove.

In September of 1992, this author, and others spoke with former Nebraska State
Senator John W. DeCamp, author of the book, The Franklin Cover-Up, at the Luther
Burbank Center, in Santa Rosa. John DeCamp told us that the account of Paul
Bonacci's testimony, (pages 103-104 of the above book) regarding a snuff film
that was made on July 26, 1984, in California in "an area that had big trees",
had been edited to omit the references to an enormous, Moss-covered Owl, and men
in hooded, red robes.

DeCamp told this author and others, that when he wrote the book he did not know
about the Owl at the Grove, and he had reasoned that it just "seemed too
far-fetched for people to believe." When in the fall of 1992, Paul Bonacci, still
in prison in Nebraska, was shown a black and white photograph of the Moss-covered
Owl taken at the Grove, he quickly identified it as the site of the July 1984,
child snuff film atrocity described in DeCamp's book. Though this tangible and
verifiable evidence has been available to law enforcement officials since
mid-October of 1992, it is curious and appalling that no official effort to bring
about justice has followed.

One might assume, however, that the members of Bohemian Grove, unlike the ancient
Canaanite Molech-worshippers, are not sacrificing their own children. Bohemian
Club members, however hard they may strive in the business world, are members of
the leisure class and as such assume the mantle of being the practitioners,
rather than the objects, of sacrifice.

No. Whatever sacrificing of humans is to be done, it must be the children of
others: the poor, urban blacks, native Americans, Africans, third worldlings, et
al, who are the objects, and victims. Bohemians, after all, are duty bound to
preserve their own bloodlines, for if these should fail, who would be left to
nobly take up the burden of dominion, and to inherit the reins of power?

The casket that is christened "Dull Care" then, and that is borne, like the
passing of Arthur in a boat, across the lake, seems subconsciously to be a
symbol, to the Boho cultists, not only of the "cares of the world," but of caring
itself. Symbolically immolated with the effigy in the casket are the hopes and
dreams of the millions of souls around the globe whose lives have been affected
by the wars of Yankee Imperialism in the twentieth century, including the
hundreds of thousands of American war dead and the suffering engendered upon
their wives, mothers, families, and loved ones. For the denizens of the Grove
veritably possess, as a collective body, the power to make, and to orchestrate,
War, the Modern Moloch.

In their insatiable greed for more Money, and Power, Bohos must purge by fire the
inherent human tendency within themselves to feel, and to care. In the ritual
ceremony of the Cremation of Care, the Bohos are symbolically torching the
consequences of their own business transactions; and they are immolating their
own consciences, as well.

The existence of a Pagan cult of Sacrifice amongst the power elite at Bohemian
Grove gives the lie to all the propaganda promoted by the corporate Media
pundits, as well as "leftist" journalists, and fostered by politicians of both
parties, that the Republican Party, in embracing "family values," Bible morality
and "Pro-Life," anti-abortion positions, in 1992, was "taken over" by its Moral
Majority, "Right Wing".

It should be apparent that the Pat Robertsons and Jerry Falwells are not powerful
enough to have "taken over" the Republican Party. Rather, the power elite, who
are amoral and always bi-partisan, have been using the religious right as
"useful idiots," to borrow Lenin's phrase, and are engaged in the long-term
Thesetic (Hegelian) process of manipulating the masses into the mental
acceptance of what the think tanks have termed "The New Paradigm" - Which is
nothing more than the social liturgy of the high priests of the New World Order.
These men are perfectly willing to sacrifice half the population of the world on
the altar of Genocide, in order to maintain the economic hegemony of their
precious multinational cartels.

The world that the plutocrats are attempting to bring to birth is, necessarily,
far more Babylonian and Pagan than "Christian." The twenty-year alliance between
the "Christian Right," and the Republican Party, so useful in its day, in
accomplishing the economic agenda of the power elite during the Reagan-Bush
years, may eventually come to an end.

Already, in some quarters, this association is being turned on its head, and
appears as another kind of asset by the manipulators of the Dialectic. The
religious Right by their silence and approval of the Iran-Contra and the Gulf
War, were complicit in the sins and the genocidal policies of Reagan-Bush.

Just as Jews were scapegoated in Hitler's Germany, Christians, increasingly, may
become the fall guys and the sacrificial lambs for the ruling-class in the near
future, as the dialecticians maneuver the armies of the night into the
battle-formations of the Final Conflict. The ruling class has already adroitly
convinced both the Left and the "Christian Right," that each other is the main
enemy.

It only remains to orchestrate a crescendo of conflict between both camps, (the
Abortion issue is a useful tool here), to knock both out, and eliminate
substantial sectors of resistance to the New World Order in the process. For
similar purposes of social control, (and taking the heat off the ruling class), a
Race - or Holy War scenario - might also be deemed effective.

The denizens of The Grove are well aware of the critical path of the decade of
the nineties. After conducing various elements of the Masses to fall upon each
other, they expect to be able to continue their sacrifices in peace, in their
corporate-feudal Shangri-La, in the new world they are earnestly bringing to
birth, a new age,in which ritual sacrificing of live humans shall be considered
Normal, and healthy. Is it to be such a world, then, as Jacques Soustelle
describes in his work on The Aztecs, where "Sacrifice was a sacred
duty towards the Sun, and a necessity for the welfare of men..." ?

Letter to the Editor : The Bohos Strike Back

July 12, 1993

Mr. Terry Schembari,
Editor-Publisher
Santa Rosa Sun
1275 Fourth Street
P. 0. Box608
Santa Rosa, CA
95404

Dear Mr. Schembari:

The feature article "Inside Bohemian Grove" (Sun, July 8-21 issue) should have
been headlined "Inside a Writer's Addled Head." The malevolent concoctions about
"sacrificial rites," etc., at the Bohemian Grove can only be characterized as
freakish fantasy.

The "Cremation of Care" is a musical and verse pageant heralding a two-week
midsummer escape from business cares and celebrating nature and good fellowship.
As grand-scale stage drama, it may be a bit overdrawn; but it's about as innocent
as anything could be.

The owl has always been the Bohemian Club's symbolic "mascot," representing the
redwood forest's preserve of wisdom, beauty, and peace. The 4O-foot owl
sculpture, created by a famous sculptor-member of the club in the early 1920s, is
no more or less than an admirable work of art, monumentally portraying the owl
symbol to enhance an outdoor stage.

The enclosed information will take you and your readers find more realistically
"inside the Bohemian Grove" and Bohemian Club than do Mr. Evans' weird, wild
imaginings.

Yours truly, 464' Richard Arnold, Member, Public Information enclosed. 824
TAYLOR STREET, SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA 94102-1075. (415) 885~2440

In Response To Mr. Arnold:

Your reaction, as spokesman for the Bohemian Club, to the serious allegations of
wrong doing, public and private, leveled in my article, was predictable, and I am
glad you responded; it lets us know that someone is paying attention. It is
typical of the Modus Operandi of powerful people and institutions in dealing with
unpleasant charges, to dismiss them by discrediting the bearer of the bad news,
or the journalist, in this case. Your words, "addled," "freakish," "weird," do
not offend me, nor the staff of this publication.

As a journalist, I stand by the words that I have written, give or take the
several typos that were generated in the process of the getting the article in
print. I am not responsible however, for the captions that were written beneath
the photographs of the "Owl of Bohemia;" They were written by the editor.

A sizable body of journalism has been published over the years about the Grove.
William Domhoff's excellent book, The Bohemian Grove, and Other Retreats, A Study
in Ruling Class Cohesiveness, Harper and Row, 1974, is far more specific about
the ritual of the Cremation of Care, interlocking corporate board connections,
and naming names of Bohemian Club members, than my brief article. To my
knowledge, however, your letter represents the first time The Bohemian Club has
publicly responded to critical attention in the media. We can only conclude that
somehow it struck a nerve.

What is unique about my article is the connection (https://www.Google.com/search?as_q=Bohemian%2C+Grove%2C+Owl%2C++Moloch%2C&hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&num=100&btnG=Google+Search&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&lr=&as_ft=i&as_filetype=&as_qdr=all&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&as_occt=any&as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=&as_rights=&safe=images) I make between the "Cremation
of Care" ceremony, and the continuity of sacrificial rites, real or symbolic,
going back to Moloch-worship in the land of Canaan. There is a lot of very
interesting, and academic material on this subject (for those of you who still
read) that can be gleaned by cross-referencing The White Goddess, by Robert
Graves, and The Two Babylons, by Alexander Hislop.

If anything, I am guilty of knowing too much, and of having a mind that is
capable of making connections. Also, I don't tow the party line that Jack
Anderson espoused in his piece in Parade Magazine, February 22, 1981,
(Journalists tend to cover their asses), that you guys are "merely enjoying a
midsummer frolic at the world's most exclusive Summer camp." My article
questions the "darker, psychological aspects" of your "rite."

Also, I establish the equation that War is the modern equivalent of Moloch,
and I remind the reader of the facts, so thoroughly documented in Professor
Domhoff's book, The Bohemian Grove, of the enormous pull, and influence in the
Military-Industrial complex represented by Bohemian Club members. I do not
assume, as a lot of liberals are busy doing, that because Clinton is President
you guys will not continue to make, and orchestrate wars all over the planet.

I am well aware that by writing what I have written, I have made myself a target.
Already, the editor of this newspaper has received threats on the telephone.
Several days before the article was published, my brakes failed while coming
down a steep bill, here in Sonoma County. I am simply stating this for the
record.

The allegations about sexual philandering and the snuff film are serious, but
they are pale by comparison to what you (Club Members, collectively) have done
abroad as Imperialists, to the Third World. The fact is, however, that most
Americans are blind, or oblivious to the excesses of American Imperialism, but
they love, and jealously protect their own children. The majority of Americans
can be manipulated through media hype, into buying a short, sweet war ('a Ia,
the Gulf War), but would be appalled if they knew, and realized that the same,
small class of oppressors who profited to the tune of BILLIONS from the Gulf
War, were kidnapping, raping, and sacrificing their own children.

As things have developed, however, some of your "Club Members" have become
somewhat careless, and it was only a matter of time, or osmosis, until the word
of some of the kinkier aspects of ruling class behavior leaked out. At some
point, some of you crossed over the line, and the cavalier attitude that you
maintain about raping, looting, and plundering the non European sector of the
planet was bound to exhibit itself in extracurricular behavior here at home.

As Jesus Christ said, long ago "There is nothing done in secret, that shall not
be made known, and come abroad." The American people are just beginning to
awaken to the reality that all is not really wonderful here in the land of
plenty, and that we are saddled with a very real plutocracy of roughly five
thousand white men, who consider the rest of us (non-managers, that is), as
peasants, fools, and mere fodder - for the bread of oppression.

It is only because a certain fateful chain of events unfolded in front of me, and
the dark secret of the snuff film that was mentioned on pages 103 & 104 of John
DeCamp's book The Franklin Cover-Up, came to the attention of myself, and
several friends, that I felt compelled to write the article you now flippantly
dismiss. We cannot vouch that Mr. De Camp, former Nebraska State Senator, and
protégé of William Colby (Nixon's interim C.I.A Chief), will admit to the
conversation(s) in question. De Camp has since learned about the clout of the
Bohemians. My friends and I, however, are quite willing to testify in court, and
to take lie detector tests, should the people call for a Grand Jury to
investigate this matter.

I suggest that if you are really serious about defending the honor of the Grove
from the charges that I have written in my article (and I have just touched the
tip of the iceberg), that you take me to court, and sue me for libel. That would
be very interesting, because then, Sir, I would get discovery, and we could
proceed to open up the can of worms over Paul Bonacci's testimony about the snuff
film that was made on July 26, 1984.

Mark Walter Evans Columnist, Sun Newspapers, published in late July, of 1993

Editor's Note: We called Mr. Arnold and asked if we could attend the
"celebration" this year, and were to1d "absolutely not." Though the propaganda
sent to us by Mr. Arnold stated that members may bring guests, he refused to
allow us to have a look for ourselves.
