Atlantis: The Reawakening

by John Traveler

In Atlantis the Reawakening, author Dave Hildebrandt reports that he didn't really find the quaint and curious  lost isle, it found him. Of course, the claims of "Atlantis found" over the past twenty-three centuries have been prolific. Here, there, and just about everywhere on the planet would

be an accurate assessment of locations claimed to have been the lost Isle of Atlantis. The problem with every one of these largely circumstantial speculations and conjectural theses has been a lack of any empirical evidence to substantiate them. The beautiful thing about Dave's discovery, is that Atlantis is exactly where Plato said it was, and perhaps even more illustrious than Plato could ever have imagined, and Atlantis The Reawakening provides all the proofs  anyone could ever demand.

Most latter-day analysts have long since considered the Atlantis in Plato's dialogues Timaeus and Critias  to be a fabrication by the ancient author, perhaps for purposes of entertainment as opposed to a true historical account. But Atlantis fans and exuberant lost isle theorists alike have not been so quick to dismiss the mythological tale

theorists alike have not been so quick to dismiss the mythological tale as fictional, clinging to a hope the story is true and the splendor that once was Atlantis will someday be realized. Well, quite simply, it has. While the gold, silver, orichalcum (copper), and ivory once adorning them has long ago been plundered, perhaps by ancient Phoenicians or Egyptians, most of the pillars which once were the centerpiece of Atlantis' Temple of Poseidon still stand. And this is only the tip of the proverbial ice berg of compelling intrinsic and empirical evidence to be gleaned from Atlantis The Reawakening.

The hill not too steep on any side, the abode of Evenor, his wife Leucippe and Cleito their daughter who Poseidon would take for his wife, is right there about 6-7 miles from Poseidon's temple at the center of the Citadel. And still there too, are the springs flowing with hot and cold water and the many other amenities Plato describes.  And yes, the unique harbor with its concourse of land and watery proportions still remain, conforming almost perfectly to Plato's metrics, providing smoking gun evidence of the lost isle. Even the smaller central island can still be witnessed, although the fabulous white and red stone clad colonnades which were the palace have obviously long ago been looted.

But the evidence uncovered by Dave Hildebrandt's research efforts goes far beyond the physical fixtures and parametric analysis of the famed lost isle. Incredibly, he succeeds in connecting the dots found in Plato's dialogues and other ancient extra-Platonic text as well, developing strong clues connecting Atlantean culture with the cultures of ancient Egypt and the Greek's Minoan and Mycenaean ancestors. Parsing Plato's literal words, and with some help from Hesiod (who Plato often quotes), Dave meticulously explains Plato's 9,000 years before his own time  reference in more metaphorically duplicitous terms.

But it would appear that the discovery of Atlantis is but one side of a figurative coin, flip it over and the solution to a second enigmatic mystery is revealed. And this one is simply mind blowing. Archeologists, anthropologists and others studying ancient prehistory are in for a treat. Not only is the realization of Atlantis probably the most significant historical discovery of all time, this secondary discovery warrants equal billing: what many would consider the two greatest prehistoric mysteries of all time have been solved.

There is much more to tell and it’s all in Atlantis The Reawakening. And equally profound discoveries are sure to follow as investigators consider the ramifications of  this awesomely profound discovery.

“Stupid Americans”

How Russia is winning the final battle of the Cold War

Who’s Reading Your email?

By Dave Hildebrandt

ABSTRACT:

In the United State Of America, the right to privacy has been a fundamental civil liberty for more than 242 years. It is a right codified in four amendments to the U.S. Constitution and protected by an array of regulations and statutes. To the founding fathers, the right of privacy pertaining to personal correspondence that the establishment of the U.S. Mail system was formed around it a year before the Declaration of Independence was penned. One might naturally conclude that the same right applies to correspondence delivered by email, but it’s not so.

When the Bill of Rights (1st 10 amendments) were added to the Constitution in 1791, the only arms then in the possession of the citizenry were black powder muskets. Even so, the 2nd Amendment right of citizens to bare arms has been held by the courts to include modern semi-automatic weapons. Ergo, why shouldn’t the right to privacy be equally transferable and enforceable pertaining to personal correspondence, irregardless of the mode of delivery. You can still be imprisoned for up to five years just for opening someone else's snail mail, but Internet Providers can read your emails, steal any information including personal information (PI) (i.e., SSN, Bank Acct#, Medical information, etc.), then sell it to “data analytics” and advertising companies (even foreign ones) without legal impunity.

This article details the ramifications of this disparity imposed by the U.S. Congress and lobbyists for the major telecommunications companies and Internet Service Providers (ISPs). Regardless of political persuasion, this issue is a fundamentally American one, and it is time for the U.S. Congress to ensure that the citizens right to privacy is not infringed upon.
