Over the last 30 years, an outstanding author and researcher named Zecharia Sitchin has written a total of nine books which describe a race of ancient beings who came to Earth about 450,000 years ago. These books go into great detail about these beings and their activities on Earth. Sitchin's books are based on ancient tablets found in Mesopotamia, the lands of the Garden of Eden described in the Bible. The Grandest Deception is a book that is based on Sitchin's work and the Bible; it describes how the ancient tablets and the Bible are related to current events. The Grandest Deception describes how the Earth was created and how mankind was created. It also describes the conditions that mankind will face during the New World Order; as well as the fate of mankind if we continue down the path that we are presently on.
The century that has elapsed since the 1915 Dardanelles campaign has done little to quell the debate that rages over its inglorious end. The origins of the campaign are likewise the subject of ongoing scrutiny, particularly the role of the First Sea Lord Winston Churchill, with whom the ill-fated campaign has been closely identified. Tom Curran’s The Grand Deception: Churchill and the Dardanelles presents a detailed examination of Churchill’s role in the decision-making process that led to the Gallipoli landings. Using unpublished British archival sources and a range of additional material, both contemporary and modern, Curran’s meticulous research casts new light on the lead-up to a campaign that would profoundly affect Australian military history.
Grand Deception exposes the highly confidential and secret lives of the World’s top two political leaders. When it is discovered that the Presidents may be targeted by adversaries who want to destroy the World’s balance of power, a countdown begins. If successful, unknown forces could accelerate the transformation of Earth into a New World Order controlled by a OneWorld Government. Faced with possibly their most challenging and dangerous case, Nikki Austen, former DC homicide detective turned private investigator and her partner Marcus Bianco become entangled in world political games as they join an investigation of a macabre murder of an escort in an upscale Georgetown townhouse owned by a beautiful and successful madam. When the investigators quickly identify the perpetrator, the trail leads them into the danger-filled underworld of a political coverup and clandestine plots that may go as high as the White House. Inexplicably, they are taken off the case by the President, but their next decision suddenly becomes their worst nightmare. Nikki and Marcus visit the DC Embassy of The People’s Republic of China in hopes of locating the escort’s murderer. They soon learn that they must deal with a mysterious Chinese general who operates in the shadows of his government and whose actions could lead to catastrophic global repercussions. As the mystery deepens, they discover more questions than answers. The search for answers about who is manipulating worldwide events from the shadows of power leads the investigators down a dangerous path, risking both from being permanently “canceled.” Their future is in limbo as the mystery goes darker, and it becomes clear that somehow, they must identify the leader of a secret Shadow Cabal and stop a super intelligent AI creation from radically altering the course of human history forever. Nikki and Marcus soon learn that they may be the only ones who can stop the countdown to world pandemonium. In Grand Deception Michael Grantham takes the reader through the hidden world of political intrigue and deceit, reminding us that deception is everywhere and is a powerful weapon in the quest for power and control.

This book presents the first reference exposition of the Cyber-Deception Chain: a flexible planning and execution framework for creating tactical, operational, or strategic deceptions. This methodology bridges the gap between the current uncoordinated patchwork of tactical denial and deception (D&D) techniques and their orchestration in service of an organization’s mission. Concepts for cyber- D&D planning operations and management are detailed within the larger organizational, business, and cyber defense context. It examines the necessity of a comprehensive, active cyber denial scheme. The authors explain the organizational implications of integrating D&D with a legacy cyber strategy, and discuss trade-offs, maturity models, and lifecycle management. Chapters present the primary challenges in using deception as part of a security strategy, and guides users through the steps to overcome common obstacles. Both revealing and concealing fact and fiction have a critical role in securing private information. Detailed case studies are included. Cyber Denial, Deception and Counter Deception is designed as a reference for professionals, researchers and government employees working in cybersecurity. Advanced-level students in computer science focused on security will also find this book useful as a reference or secondary text book.
The Truth That Most Christians Will Reject Millions of Christians have been led to believe that they are being saved by professing faith in Jesus, going to church, and trying to be good, while otherwise living lives that are fundamentally as worldly, as the unbelievers around them. This patterned discipleship, practiced in almost all churches, attempts to join faith in God, with faith, comfort, and approval in the world. It seeks to have eternal life later, and the rewards of the world now. It seeks to serve two masters. It is disguised in high words such as faith and discipleship, and affirms itself through rituals, but it lacks the genuine dependance on God, the humility that abandons worldly affirmation, and the self-sacrifice that forgoes comfort to further the Kingdom. To contrast this, the Bible proclaims a very different church and discipleship—A Church of such true belief in Christ, that its disciples are moved to sacrifice their comfort, their pride, and even their lives, to stand as a testimony to the truth and saving power of God, in a fallen world. It proclaims a Church more concerned about saving others than saving itself, and therein lies the shallowness of the churches that we see today. This should move us to question: Where is the church in the world today, and why is it so hidden, if it is supposed to be a city on a hill? "You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;" Matthew 5:14 Where is the rejection by the world, of believers who stand by God's truth? "If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, because of this the world hates you." John 15:19 Where is the preaching that leads believers to a true understanding of the world and true separation from the world? "Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him." 1 John 2:15 Where are the messengers, who are supposed to share the Good News with the 100,000 unbelievers who are perishing every day? "…How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher? How will they preach unless they are sent?…" Romans 10:14-15 Where is the true fellowship that does more than chat over coffee and meals, but instead supports, corrects, edifies, and heals fellow believers in humility, love, and truth? "We urge you, brethren, admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone." 1 Thessalonians 5:14 Where is the belief in eternal life that abandons slavery to the fear of death?—the belief that was so obviously missing during the COVID-19 pandemic? "…He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and might free those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives." Hebrews 2:14-15 Where is the sacrifice for Jesus, the denial of self for the growing of the Kingdom? "…If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me." Matthew 16:24 Jesus, himself, warned us: "For many are called, but few are chosen" Matthew 22:14. In this light, "Living With Babel" testifies to what scripture says the Church should be. It breaks the chains and misconceptions formed over centuries, to reveal our true purpose in God's plan of redemption for our fallen world—It is a guide on how to live with Babel.
