Bartholomew's Notes

The Clarion Fund, currently on the receiving end of intense scrutiny over the tens of millions of dollars it recently spent giving away free copies of the supposed “anti-Islamic extremist” documentary Obsession, has financed a second film from the Obsession team and produced by a particularly obscure (and website-less) outfit called “PublicScope Films”. The film is entitled The Third Jihad; here’s the cover as it appears on the Clarion fund’s website:

Curiously, however, elsewhere the cover appears slightly differently:

One wonders which cover is the is current one, and what factors may perhaps have influenced the decision to change it…

(UPDATE: Just in case a few people are wondering, the above of course is not meant to suggest that the Obama campain in some way was responsible for forcing the cover change. I can think of some other motives and explanations, but I’m sure readers don’t need my help to speculate. However, it should be noted (a) that the Clarion Fund website carried material explictly endorsing McCain until it came to general notice; (b) that the Obsession giveaway apparently targeted swing states; and (c) that at least one of the “experts” featured in the Obsession film – namely Walid Shoebat – has been known to promote the conspiracy theory that Obama is “really” a Muslim.)

WorldNetDaily, 30 September:

Some 2,000 years ago, the apostle Paul predicted a time when believers in God would “not endure sound doctrine” and that “they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” (2 Timothy 4:3-4)

“At this very moment, we are living in Paul’s predicted time of fables,” declares WND executive news editor Joe Kovacs, author of the brand-new book, “Shocked by the Bible: The Most Astonishing Facts You’ve Never Been Told,” which makes its official debut today.

“There are millions of people, many of whom are Christian, who actually believe fables about Scripture instead of easily provable Bible facts,” Kovacs said.

WorldNetDaily, 24 September:

The author of a unique best-selling book on the year 2012 and the return of biblical Nephilim claims mankind may be on the precipice of an earth-shaking event far beyond the imagination of most people. In “Nephilim Stargates: The Year 2012 and the Return of the Watchers,” Thomas Horn quotes the prophet Enoch concerning the history of powerful angels who descended from heaven onto Mt. Hermon “in the days of Jared” and used women to produce giant offspring…Horn points to additional prophecies, which he believes could support this timing of Enoch’s 70 generations and a catastrophic soon return of the Watcher’s offspring, which would lead to men’s hearts failing them for fear when seeing what is coming upon the earth. (see Luke 21:26).
