- Herold Noel's Story
-
- (Editor's Note: This story is representative of thousands
of poor Americans who've been suckered into joining the military to obtain
a standard of living that the government, if it were honest and working
for its citizens, could have (and should have) provided as a basic
obligation
to its own citizenry. Herold Noel was trained by the Army to automatically
kill anyone who dared to approach his vehicle while he was stationed in
Iraq, whether it was a man, a woman or a child. Naturally, he's haunted
by the memory of killing 11 civilians and almost committed suicide, after
returning, as a result of the guilt and despair that was since shadowed
his life. He's found redemption of sorts by talking about his feelings
and experiences with whomever will listen and is now helping others who
are also suffering from what is described here as a 'disorder', PTSD. Well,
I guess you can legitimately call it stress whenever you are involved with
the killing of human beings, but MURDERING Iraqi civilians who perhaps
didn't know that's it was an automatic death sentence for the crime of
approaching an American military vehicle, especially young children, is
less a disorder than it is a crushing weight of conscience bearing down
on the heart of an ordinary American Joe who had allowed himself to be
turned into a Nazi by an Army that is u
nder
the control of satanic minds.

- In the course of the audio interview, Herold relates
that the Army had taught him "values": integrity, responsibility,
etc. he says. What Herold doesn't realize is that the Army had taught him
to be a mindless, robotic killer of unarmed civilians and that he was
BRAINWASHED
into believing that the killing was OK by the repetitive use of mind
programming
mantras ("I am an American soldier, ever vigilant and protective of
my fellow countrymen, ", etc) and conversion br
ainwashing
techniques developed by the Tavist
ock
Institute in London. He now has to deal with the consequence of giving
away his power, his mind, his body and his moral standards to a military
organization that is today firmly in the grip of New
World Order satanic traitors, starting with the commander in chief,
the secretary of defense, the Pentagon, and on down to field commanders.
The way to avoid acquiring the curse that now torments Herold Noel is to
avoid making the mistake that his ignorance and naivete allowed him to
make-don't join the military. And when the draft comes around in the next
12-18 months- I would avoid it by whatever means was necessary, if the
decision were mine to make.

- Morning Edition, July 7, 2005 · For many young
men and women, joining the military is a path out of poverty. But those
who return to impoverished neighborhoods with Posttraumatic Stress
Disorder,
a common psychiatric injury of war, can find it especially hard to recover.
We profile Herold Noel, a veteran of the Iraq war who, upon his return,
ended up homeless before getting help.
