FORWARD
The End Times are an extremely polarizing topic. For some in society, they are nothing more than fictional events prophesized long ago that will never come true. Almost like a biblical representation of an apocalyptic boogeyman. For others, the End Times are very real, with strange markers popping up across the globe pointing to their beginning. Are they real? That is a question for the ages.
Looking around society here in the United States the answer could be yes, as our once great nation is fractured and bleeding at the seams. Although it has been building for some time, the differing ideologies and opinions alive in our country have created a great rift among the population. This divide, coupled with the volumes of misinformation being broadcast daily by the media, and confusion reigns supreme.
Not since the Civil War have we experienced so much brother-against-brother strife. Families are being torn apart as parts of society fights for their side of the agenda. Gone are the days of discussion, where thought-out conversations could be had to make sense of the happenings. Instead, acts of civil disobedience, protests, and violence have consumed the narrative. Because of this, as a nation we may be spiraling to the brink of the End Days, all we need is a spark.
Unfortunately, no matter which side of the debate you favor, discovering the truth is becoming harder every day. Fake news is everywhere, and it is up to all of us as individuals to decipher what is true and what is false; this is a battle in and to itself. The media cannot be trusted, journalism is dead, and blogs all point to a single side of a topic steered by the writers’ worldview. Sure, this is nothing new, but as the days pass by, the environment is growing more antagonistic and hostile.
When I sat down and started this project, these problems were not so bad or as noticeable as they are today. Only a couple of years ago the shadows of the truth were hidden in the open for the entire world to see if they looked. Today, that curtain has fallen and another curtain exists. Fortunately, while this game of hiding the truth has become somewhat more difficult, sure signs have become recognizable. The rise of (and reliance on) technology has allowed many in society to bypass this shroud and expose the dark realities that exist. False flag operations that would once torment societies for generations are now easily debunked, thus allowing people to wake to the global technocracy that is overtaking the world.
At heart, this is the New World Order President Bush referred to during speeches in the 1990s. A one-world government is not out for the good of humanity, but for the destruction of societies and complete global domination by any means necessary. If you look at it, everything makes sense and the end game of the twisted experimentation of the 1900s apparent. Now, a new enemy lay ahead and the worlds’ leaders back them.
The miserable part is that there are still millions of people walking our planet in denial. Greed, power, control, everything is at the disposal of these monsters, and no one on Earth is now safe from the reach of their tentacles, but still, it is just a conspiracy theory. Sadly, for those blind individuals, gone are the days of the cover black ops centered in modernized nations.
Now, an era of uncontrolled experimentations has been ushered in under the blue and white flag of the eugenicists, and the global elite infects millions in the underdeveloped third world nations. Haven’t you noticed the rise of vile pandemics across the globe? I have, and for what, population control? Their agenda etched in stone for all humanity to see; a world of 500 million is what the Guidestones call for, and they believe that number is still attainable even with a worldwide population of 7.4 billion.
As I sit here near completion of this project, I am witnessing an awakening of sorts. People across the globe are rising to the challenge and are finally speaking out against this repressive monstrosity. Sure, it isn’t easy; it’s met with cries of outrage and a fear of repercussions for speaking out against the mind controlled masses, but it must be done if we all want to survive. In the United Kingdom, you had BREXIT, and in the United States, Donald Trump defeated Hillary Clinton mostly due to his campaign to place America first instead of bowing to the globalist programs supported by the last four puppets to hold office. Both of these movements followed the voice of the people (even if the Left is crying about the popular vote), and are giving society a chance to defeat the elites that are continually positioning nations against each other so to reap the rewards when their manmade chaos erupts.
While this work is based on a fictional set of events taking place inside a small, somewhat isolated, portion of the United States, the actual premise may not be far fetched as we cannot dismiss or ignore the overall power of the globalist machine. It is not impossible that similar activities aren’t taking place right now in one of the many financially and technology deprived nations in the underdeveloped world. These people are evil, and they will not rest until humanity falls to their knees.
I for one did not spend 21-years protecting our nation to watch some non-American bureaucrat come in and try to destroy our country or make a mockery out of our sovereign rights granted under the Constitution. To them, remember this, I am not alone in my desire to stand against your attempts to infringe upon our inalienable rights and the resistance you will face while attempting this maneuver will be stronger than you could have ever perceived. I will stand against the global elites to protect our sovereignty and lead the fight to help wake the rest of the sleeping giants brainwashed by decades of propaganda. I will not enter this battle alone; I know many more individuals that feel the same way.
To that end, this manuscript is quite real, and inside these pages, I have revealed some hard truths that may seem shocking. Even the blog mentioned inside is real and holds more information for you to dig into (survivingstatic.blogspot.com). Sure, some people may disregard some of the material and call it nothing but a “Conspiracy Theory,” but from years of research, these theories have been proven to be fact. They are disgusting truths hidden within the shroud of the global agenda and the reality that the world must wake to. Just remember, all hope is not lost, and our awakening is just beginning,

Prologue
“The First Angel Went and Poured Out His Bowl on the Earth”
Creatures of the night surround us
Romero laughs
His diabolic vision of despair
Of humor and laughter
A misleading masterpiece for those willing to understand the genius
Strangers unite
Fighting a plague of humanity before they fall prey
Victims, not innocent, but oblivious of their sins
Their cannibalistic nature striking fear in us all
Not because of the sheer terror
Or their horrific deeds
But, for the primal nature lurking at our core
The taste of flesh as sweet as the fruit on the vine
The lure, the only difference
Or is it?
Instead of a snake in the garden
We are persuaded by desire
Carnal temptations leading us to flesh
At the heart, the snake and the pleasures are equal
These forbidden dreams considered taboo
So misunderstood, that the thought alone often spawns remorse
A lingering guilt that creates hatred
And yes, these monsters for us to cheer
The screens are full of surrealistic views of reality
Where the creatures indulge in the carnal feasts, we covet
Where one’s flesh and blood replaces the love and hate, we hold on a pedestal
In many ways, we are all alike
Zombies searching for companionship instead of brains
Embracing the taste of our lover’s skin during passion
For us, our time is here; the day of reckoning is now
The Apocalypse has begun
Chapter One
“To shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass…”
October 2,
The poetic introduction to this manuscript may seem a bit strange, but when you dive into your mind, you will realize everything you know about strange flesh eating outbreaks and a zombie apocalypse can be traced to the fictional world. There is nothing wrong with this in any way, especially when one considers the massive increase in entertainment and video games making the subject commonplace over the past few decades. Did you ever wonder why? I will admit I never did, but maybe I should have.
Everywhere you look, you can see an example of the modern zombie, as portrayed in books, films, and, games. Not surprisingly, the mutated creatures are quite different from the descriptions depicted in their source materials found in actual documented cases of the undead Voodoo zombies and those found in other international folklore. The contemporary zombies typically portrayed in popular culture as mindless, unfeeling monsters with a hunger for human flesh is completely off base; as is the idea that these creatures can sustain damage far beyond that of an average living human and can pass their infection onto others. This prototype was established in the seminal 1968 film Night of the Living Dead and has remained virtually unchanged ever since.
After this emotional movie, zombies would only be seen overwhelming society in mobs and waves, living only to eat by seeking blood, flesh, intestines, or any other human limb possible. Typically, they would show signs of physical decomposition with rotting flesh, discolored eyes, and open wounds, and move in somewhat stylized, yet unusual ways. They are incapable of communication, showing no signs of personality, rationality or any ability of reason, They also seemed to lack the abilities to organize, run, or swim. In many cases, these fiends are closely tied to the idea of a zombie apocalypse. For some, this is already taking place in our world with the collapse of civilization from a vast plague of undead being silenced by a complicit media.
There are a few other examples from the entertainment industry, while they are closer to the truth; yet, they do not have the same influence in shaping beliefs. Even today, one can still find differences among the depictions of zombies by various media; for one comparison see the contrasts between zombies by Night of the Living Dead authors George A. Romero and John A. Russo as they evolved in the two separate film series that followed. The unfortunate truth is that the seeds planted by the entertainment industry are now firmly linked to the zombie mythos that there are very few instances of the beasts that show them in any other context.
So, before I get rolling into the heart of this book, I wanted to run through a quick overview of the real zombie mythos to show that there was something much more sinister involved in what we experienced during the pandemic. When a person wants to dive into the heart of a zombie, they must take a thorough look at the Voodoo religion. According to the tenets of Voodoo, a Bokor or Voodoo sorcerer can revive the dead. These Zombies remain under the control of the bokor since they have no will of their own. An excellent example of this from pop culture is the classic film White Zombie.
One timeless case can be found in 1937, where Zora Neale Hurston while researching folklore in Haiti, encountered the case of Felicia Felix-Mentor, who had died was buried, and returned in 1907 at the age of 29. Hurston pursued rumors that the affected persons were given powerful drugs, but she was unable to locate individuals willing to offer much information.
Several decades later, Wade Davis, a Canadian ethnobotanist, presented a pharmacological case for zombies in two books, The Serpent and the Rainbow (1985) and Passage of Darkness: The Ethnobiology of the Haitian Zombie (1988). Davis traveled to Haiti in 1982 and as a result of his inquiries came to the conclusion that a living person can be transformed into a zombie when two special powders are entered into the blood stream. After this trip, he also popularized the story of Clairvius Narcisse, who claimed to have succumbed to this practice.
Others have discussed the contribution of the victim's belief system, possibly leading to compliance with the attacker
's will, causing psychogenic amnesia, catatonia, or other psychological disorders, which are later misinterpreted as a return from the dead. Scottish psychiatrist R. D. Laing further highlighted the link between social and cultural expectations and compulsion, in the context of schizophrenia and other mental illness, suggesting that schizogenesis may account for some of the psychological aspects of zombification.
While these were some investigations and theories, the idea of the zombie dates back even further. In the Middle Ages, it was commonly believed that the souls of the dead could return to earth and haunt the living. The belief in revenants (someone who has returned from the dead) is well documented by contemporary European writers of the time, such as William of Newburgh and Walter Map. This creature, the revenant, would usually take the form of an emaciated corpse wandering through the ancient graveyards at night. Accounts can also be traced to medieval Norse mythology, as well as several other cultures worldwide, including China, Japan, the Pacific, India, and the Native Americans. However, the most famous and popularized cases sit in Haiti within the mysterious Voodoo religion.
The word Voodoo derives from the word Vodu in the Fon language of Dahomey meaning spirit or god and describes the complex religious and belief system that exist in Haiti, an island of the West Indies. The foundations of Voodoo were established in the seventeenth century by slaves captured primarily from the Kingdom of Dahomey, which occupied parts of today's Togo, Benin, and Nigeria in West Africa. This religion combines features of Native African religious practices with the Roman Catholicism that was practiced by the European settlers.
Unfortunately, in literature and film, Voodoo has been reduced to sorcery, black magic, and in some cases even cannibalistic practices, poisoning many against the practice. In reality, this religious practice includes the belief in a supreme God (Bon Dieu) and a host of spirits called Loa, which are often identified analog to many of the saints revered by the Catholic Church. Many of these spirits are closely related to African Gods, and many represent natural phenomena such as fire, water, or the wind and can even signify eminent ancestors.
