ou
may or may just recently have started hearing about it, but RFID
is nothing new, it has been around for a while. It has been promoted
little by little, bit by bit, to make us all getting used to the
idea. However, the last month or so you can suddenly read about it
everywhere, and newspapers and media write about it like it was the
solution for everything. It is time to get the population
micro-chipped, and the time is NOW.
For you who don't know what RFID is, here is the definition: RFID or
Radio Frequency IDentification is a method of
storing and remotely retrieving data using devices called RFID tags
or transponders. An RFID tag is a small object that can be attached
to or incorporated into a product, animal, or person. RFID tags
contain antennas to enable them to receive and respond to
radio-frequency queries from an RFID transceiver. Passive tags
require no internal power source, whereas active tags require a
power source[1].
Like the definition tells us, it can be used both on objects,
animals and persons. It is the Illuminati's solution to having us
all chipped and under control. The purpose is then to connect the
whole world population (or what is left of it after they have killed
off enough people to feel they can control us) to a Super Computer,
already set up, code-named "Lilith" in Brussels, Belgium.
RFID is not ONLY a tracking device, but both a receiver and
transmitter. This means that they can both retrieve information
about us, spy on us and perhaps even worse - transmit both low
frequency radio waves to mess with our minds, and implant actual
thoughts into our brain; thoughts we think are our own! That way
they can take control over our thought patterns. This sounds like a
line from a horror movie, but if so, the horror movie has become
reality: taking the chip means the end to ALL OUR FREEDOMS!
And here comes the shocking part: The reason the Illuminati go
through all this effort to have us chipped fills a greater purpose.
As much as many people are afraid of THEM, THEY are terrified of us!
Not so much that we should revolt and kill them as we should develop
spiritually. They are horrified that we should raise to a higher
spiritual level where we can see the whole truth and escape from the
prison and fight them on a spiritual level. When a person regains
spiritual knowledge, he/she starts vibrating on a higher FREQUENCY,
and this is how we reach higher dimensions and densities. Now get
this: THE MICROCHIPPING THEY ARE PLANNING WILL ONCE AND FOR ALL KEEP
US ON A LOW VIBRATION LEVEL; THEY ARE DESIGNED THAT WAY! This means
that we can't develop spiritually and we remain stuck in the
Illuminati's low vibration prison where pain, suffer and terror are
the three main characteristics.
It is crucial that we refuse any kind of micro-chipping, for the
last reason especially!
This article will be constantly updated as new information comes
out. Here below are excellent links with extremely important
information regarding RFID; how the Illuminati use it now, and how
they plan to use it in the future. So please take time to read it -
or at least as much of it so you understand the seriousness of it - your future
will depend on it!
My gratitude goes to my very dear friend Wayne Morin Jr., who helped me
by sending me a lot of those links.

What
Is RFID? An overview from CASPIAN's Spychips website: RFID
stands for Radio Frequency IDentification, a technology that uses
tiny computer chips smaller than a grain of sand to track items at a
distance. RFID "spy chips" have been hidden in the packaging of
Gillette razor products and in other products you might buy at a
local Wal-Mart, Target, or Tesco - and they are already being used
to spy on people.

medical equipment and managers, allowing convenient tracking with
web-based searches. Later this year, the Connecticut hospital will
add patient location, using a wrist-sized device.
Governments, too, want to track you: The US State Department is
implementing a plan to have new passports equipped with ultra-thin
RFID chips that contain citizens' personal data and a digital
photo -- as early as next year. Government officials said the
electronically stored information can't be altered, preventing
terrorists from gaining entry with counterfeit passports.
Simitian responds
