Illuminati: Michael Jackson
June 25th, 3 days after the summer solstice, the “King of Pop” suddenly dies after days of preparation for his last tour “This is It” in London, a key city. I couldn’t help but feel like it meant something in a way but I tried not to think to much about it until my friend who’s name happens to be also Michael asked me if I thought anything special of it; here it is what I could come up with.
Summer Solstice, 3 Deaths
First, 3 days exactly after the summer solstice is a big date, not only cause 3 is a meaningful number in the occult and the spiritual, but because exactly 3 1/2 years from that day will be December 25th 2012, a perfect day for the Illuminati to reveal their christ to the world to give their final touch to the New World Order (Read “June 21st is here”). Also remember that the dead of 3 different famous people occurred during those days, one of them being Farrah Fawcett one of “Charlie’s Angels“, so in a sense, before Jackson was gone the same morning an “angel of Charlie” fell or why not “sent back to heaven”, maybe to send a message(i.e angel=messenger).
The meaning of Charles is:
Usage: English, French
From the Germanic name Karl, which was derived from a Germanic word which meant “man”. However, an alternative theory states that it is derived from the common Germanic element heri meaning “army, warrior”.
“An Angel of Man” or messenger was sent back that morning, then Michael was coming behind. First let me say that it should be very clear that Michael Jackson’s death alone is creating a buzz in the media all around the globe so overwhelming that makes it seem like it may have been planned out for the eyes and “hearts” of the people to be focus on MJ and not on what the world leaders are doing behind the scenes with our world, because let me repeat that Jackson’s death is a worldwide event used for worldwide change of the system.
The Name “Michael Jackson”
Let’s see the spiritual or ritualistic aspect of his death, by seeing the meaning of the name which is the essence of who you are in one word, the reason why I am so jealous to maintain the Awesome Name of my Messiah and of the Father pure, Yahweh Yahuwshua and not the world corrupted words Jehovah Jesus.
MICHAEL
Usage: English, German, Czech, Biblical
Pronounced: MIE-k?l (English), MI-khah-el (German) [key]
From the Hebrew name (Mikha’el) meaning “who is like God?”. This is a rhetorical question, implying no person is like God. Saint Michael was one of the seven archangels in Hebrew tradition and the only one identified as an archangel in the Bible. In the Book of Revelation in the New Testament he is portrayed as the leader of heaven’s armies, and thus is considered the patron saint of soldiers.
Daniel 12:1
“At that time Michael shall stand up,
The great prince who stands watch over the sons of your people;
And there shall be a time of trouble,
Such as never was since there was a nation,
Even to that time.
And at that time your people shall be delivered,
Every one who is found written in the book.
Maybe because of this promise or prophecy, they decided to kill a Michael at the beginning of their ultimate rebellion against the Almighty, Yahweh.
Revelation 12:7
And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back.
There are scriptural reference to say that Yahuwshua the image of Yahweh who walked the earth and is to come back carries also the name Michael as the heavenly chief.
“The term “archangel” is another shoddy Greek transliteration of arXaggelos. It means Chief Envoy. There is only One Chief Envoy. The Chief of the envoys is Yâ-hwéh, as they are the envoys of Yâ-hwéh. Somehow many have lost sight of this. Scripture calls the Chief of the envoys Miykhâ’Ë´l (Michael). None of the others are called this term, Chief Envoy (“archangel”). This name, or title, means Miy (He Who) – kha (is like) – ‘Ël (the Mighty One [singular meaning the Father]). Who is the Tmunath Yâ-hwéh (“express Image” of the Father)? Who is like the Mighty One? Who is the only One Who is like Him?”
Taken from, Yahuwshua.org
The meaning of the name is an important one, one of which I’m sure Illuminati would love to make use of when sacrificing blood for some power or influence of the dark powers to meet their goals according to plan. Lets not stop there though, his last name is maybe as important as the first one, as we’ll see.
JACKSON
Surname Meaning & Origin:
This patronymic surname means “son of Jack.” The given name Jack may be a diminutive of John or James, or a derivation of the Old French given name Jacque, the French form of Jacob.
Therefore the name Michael Jackson can be translated as “Who is like God? the Son of Jacob”.
It is a big deal, when you think about the fact that Jacob is he who became Israel the Father of the real nation of YisraEl, so in a way Yahuwshua the real Messiah can be called the Son of Jacob because of him being a descendant of course.
The throne of England is on top of what they say is “the Stone of Destiny” or “Pillow of Jacob” which is the rock where Jacob rested his head when he saw the Angel of Yahweh at the top of a ladder by which many angels where coming up and down, he anointed that stone and pronounced a blessing.
Genesis 28:10-22
Jacob’s Vow at Bethel
10 Now Jacob went out from Beersheba and went toward Haran.
11 So he came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. And he took one of the stones of that place and put it at his head, and he lay down in that place to sleep.
12 Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of Yahweh were ascending and descending on it.
13 And behold, Yahweh stood above it and said: “I am Yahweh Mighty One of Abraham your father and the Mighty One of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and your descendants.
14 Also your descendants shall be as the dust of the earth; you shall spread abroad to the west and the east, to the north and the south; and in you and in your seed all the families of the earth shall be blessed.
15 Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.”
16 Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely Yahweh is in this place, and I did not know it.”
17 And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of Yahweh, and this is the gate of heaven!”
18 Then Jacob rose early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put at his head, set it up as a pillar, and poured oil on top of it.
19 And he called the name of that place Bethel;[a] but the name of that city had been Luz previously.
20 Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If Yahweh will be with me, and keep me in this way that I am going, and give me bread to eat and clothing to put on,
21 so that I come back to my father’s house in peace, then Yahweh shall be my Mighty One.
22 And this stone which I have set as a pillar shall be Yahweh’s house, and of all that You give me I will surely give a tenth to You.”
The stone is there because they believe to be the rightful owners of the Kingdoms of the earth, therefore even the kingdom of King David who is also “the Son of Jacob”, they are expecting to give that throne to their messiah soon, as I believe it to be in exactly 3 years and a half from the day of the ritualistic death of Michael Jackson = “Who is like God? the Son of Jacob”, many believe this “Antichrist” is Prince Charles, cause is “a name of Man”, others believe that instead it is his son William, who will do his own Will, the Will of I Am, a blasphemy name.
Going even deeper into it, in the spiritual sense when it is spoken of the nation of Jacob, name which means “supplanter”, it refers to the nation who still follows the supplanter cause they refuse to change the name they call upon, from Jesus to Yahuwshua, just like Jacob the “Supplanter” became YisraEl, which means “He who will rule like the Mighty One”.
H3290
יעקב
ya‛ăqôb
yah-ak-obe’
From H6117; heel catcher (that is, supplanter); Jaakob, the Israelitish patriarch: – Jacob.
H3478
ישׂראל
yiśrâ’êl
yis-raw-ale’
From H8280 and H410; he will rule as God; Jisrael, a symbolical name of Jacob; also (typically) of his posterity: – Israel.
The King of Pop Dead
The last important factor to take into account is that among many similarities between Elvis’ dead and Michael’s is that, just like Elvis was called the King, so was Michael Jackson called the King of Pop. When Freemasons and other ritualistic orders do their blood sacrifices to their god, killing “a king” means a lot, because their god will appreciate the blood of such an important person basically the best out of an entire kingdom, in the sense of monarchy, like when they took Kennedy out, the king of the United States at the moment, on the street with the shape of a pyramid without the capstone in a Masonic city.
Pop Music
Pop music is a music genre that features a noticeable rhythmic element, melodies and hooks, a mainstream style and a conventional structure. The term “pop music” was first used in 1926 in the sense of “having popular appeal” (see popular music), but since the 1950s it has been used in the sense of a musical genre, originally characterized as a lighter alternative to rock and roll.
At the end of all these, thinking of how Doctors have said he was healthy, the fact that he was only 50 years old and they are now saying that it could’ve been an overdose provided by his own doctor, I have come to conclude, that Michael Jackson was a victim of an Illuminati Ritual, The King of Popular appeal, the “King of the People“, they are now going to get rid of the people under the king, like it is normally done in a war.
The “Angel of the man” left that morning to then finish it off with “Who is like God? the Son of Jacob” the world acclaimed “King of the Population“, as a subliminal message to come for the rest of the population, keeping the minds of the world busy on his death while they do what they have been planning for so long for these days.
Be ready prepare and open your eyes.

“They Don’t Care About Us”
Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, aggravation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Bang bang, shot dead
Everybody’s gone mad
All I wanna say is that

You’re rapin’ me of my pride
Oh, for God’s sake
I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy…
Set me free
Tell me what has become of my rights
Am I invisible because you ignore me?
Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now
I’m tired of bein’ the victim of shame
They’re throwing me in a class with a bad name
I can’t believe this is the land from which I came
You know I do really hate to say it
The government don’t wanna see
But if Roosevelt was livin’
He wouldn’t let this be, no, no
Some things in life they just don’t wanna see
But if Martin Luther was livin’
He wouldn’t let this be

Legendary Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson was born in Indiana, USA on 29th August, 1958. This American superstar entertained the audiences for many decades. Michael was a musical prodigy, with exceptional singing and dancing talent. Single sequined white glove, moonwalk, high pitched voice, and white socks with black shoes became the trade mark of Michael Jackson. He was undoubtedly one of the most popular and successful pop stars of 80s. With stunning musical versatility, eye-popping dance moves and tons of sheer star power, he dominated the charts for many years. Album Thriller was his best-known accomplishments, and was largest-selling album of all times.
Michael Jackson had been influenced by the work of musicians like James Brown, Little Richards, Diana Ross, Gene Kelly, David Ruffin, Sammy Davis and Bees Gees. He also admired the performances by English music hall tradition such as Charlie Chaplin and Benny Hill.
Life of Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson started his career early, along with his elder brothers, and soon emerged as lead vocalist of the group. He easily impressed audiences with the range and depth of his emotions. His career progressed very gradually, and he was the first black artist who found the stardom on MTV.
Michael Jackson lived a lonely and sad life, and he always felt that no one is able to understand him. He had a tough childhood, and felt that his father was always very stern and hard who would beat him up often prior to stage performances. He entered entertainment industry when he was six years old, and regretted the fact that he could never enjoy fun things that kids of his age do, such as parties, sleepover, trick-or-treat and so on. He always longed for true friends, and often wandered on the streets in the night, looking for someone to talk to. He confessed to crying many times in the privacy of his house. Michael Jackson loved children, and spent almost all his life helping million of children all across the globe. However, he always felt that media exploited his concern for children, and made him the vulnerable target.
Despite all his accomplishments, media always focused on his eccentricities, and portrayed him as the molester. In 1993, he was accused of molesting a teenager boy. Though he denied the charges and tried the out-of-court settlement, all his attempts failed to restore his image. In 1994, he married Lisa Presley, the daughter of King Elvis Presley. Many people believed that it was just a show by Jackson to end the accusations of him being gay.
Towards the end of his life, Michael Jackson had become the favorite punch line for media, and was always surrounded by troubles. On June 25th, 2009, Michael Jackson collapsed due to cardiac arrest, and was rushed to UCLA medical center. There, he was pronounced dead at the age of 50. At that time, he was rehearsing and training for the upcoming comeback set for final performances. Police decided to treat his death as homicide after they found several drugs in his body. To date, police is conducting investigations on Conrad Murray, Jackson’s personal doctor. One of the greatest music heroes of the century had to face a very unfortunate and untimely death. At the time of his death, he was known more for his wild spending, erratic behavior and several plastic surgeries, rather than for his music.
His death came as a major shock for all Michael Jackson fans throughout the world. July 7th, 2009 was the day of Jackson’s memorial, and it took place at Los Angeles Staple Center. On 3rd September 2009, his body was finally put to rest at Forest Lawn Memorial after much debate with his family.
Michael Jackson was a great artist, and will always live in the hearts of his million fans who have undying love for him.

Tom Bahler’s soulful memories with Michael Jackson
DAYTON, Ohio – Electrifying sell-out crowds, with distinguished vocals and mind-blowing dance routines is one way fans remember Michael Jackson. For Tom Bahler, memories of Jackson are meaningful, filled with harmonies, laughter and Motown soul.
As a songwriter, studio singer, arranger and producer, Bahler has worked with a variety of artists, including the Temptations, Barbara Streisand, Elvis Presley and Smokey Robinson. Among his list of seasoned performers is Michael Jackson, dating back to the early 1970s. “Back in the day when I first met Michael, he was warm, and at the same time, inside of himself,” Bahler said. “He knew there was a fire inside of himself.”
Bahler, along with his brother John Bahler began working at Motown Records in 1972. They were given multiple tasks, including background singing and vocal arranging. Together, they worked with the Jackson 5. “We use to start [around] 4:30 p.m., after school [let out,]“ Tom said. “They’d arrive in a limousine from school and go straight into the studio.”
According to Tom, he and John treasure their memories at Motown because of the music. “It was a wonderful chapter in our lives,” he said. “It was the greatest experience ever. I think it was spiritually fulfilling.”
Tom reminisces about Jackson and considers his memories to be priceless. He said it’s hard to pinpoint specific memories because there are many, but said he will never forget what Jackson did one day in Motown’s studio. “Being the youngest of the Jackson 5, everybody was always telling Michael where to stand,” he said. “It wasn’t because he was ‘Michael Jackson,’ but because he was the youngest. One day, Michael walked over and leaned against a piano and just started singing. I was thinking, ‘A kid this young with this much soul.’ It was just extraordinary.”
In 1973, Tom began working with Quincy Jones. (He arranged Jones’ album “Body Heat.”) The two became fast friends and enjoyed working together. At the same time, Tom and John continued working with a variety of artists, including the Jackson 5. Jones knew who the group was, but never worked with them musically.
Both Tom and Jones remained busy with music-related projects, but stayed connected. In 1977, Jones began directing the 1978-released film “The Wiz.” Tom worked behind the cameras as the film’s vocal arranger. The cast featured a star-studded lineup, including Diana Ross as “Dorothy,” Nipsey Russell as the “Tin Man,” Ted Ross as the “Cowardly Lion,” Lena Horn as “Glinda the Good Witch,” Richard Pryor as “The Wiz” and Jackson as the “Scarecrow.” “When we did ‘The Wiz’ I knew Michael, but Quincy was [just getting better acquainted with him,]” Tom said. “It was fun seeing that relationship grow. It shows you what can happen when you have the right combination of mind and spirit.”
The same year, 1977, Tom wrote a ballad describing emotional heartbreak, detailing what was currently going on in his life. The song was called “She’s Out of My Life.” ”I was going with a wonderful woman and woke up with her, and she wanted to get married, and I wasn’t ready,” he said. ”These thoughts were going through my mind on the freeway one night. I said [to myself,] ‘Hey man, you made a choice. Face it. She’s out of your life.’ I was like ‘Wow’ at what I was thinking. By the time I got home, the song was written in 13 minutes.”
Tom’s ballad is featured on Jackson’s 1979 solo album Off the Wall. According to him, Jackson wasn’t his original choice to sing the track. “But [Michael] understood drama,” he said. Jackson was moved by the song and tearful toward the end of every recording he made. Tom said Jones had Jackson record the song 12 times before deciding to keep the emotional ending. The version released on Off the Wall is the first recording Jackson made. “When he sang ‘She’s Out of My Life,” he cried,” Tom said. “People don’t hear how he apologized at the end of every take. I asked Michael on a break if he was alright. I said, ‘Hey man, sorry if I hit a chord.’ [Michael] said, ‘No man, I was just getting into the lyrics.”
Throughout his career, Tom and John remained connected with Jackson, becoming his vocal arrangers. “Any time he’d do something on voices, he’d call us,” Tom said. “Michael was great. He was always open [to our comments.] But at the same time, he was an incredible singer.”
Tom said he can’t remember every song he worked on with Jackson while at Motown, but said he has beautiful memories, filled with “funny moments.” “There were so many songs, that if I hear them, then I can remember them,” he said. Still, one song stands out in his mind: Jackson’s version of “Rockin’ Robin.” Tom remembers helping him practice his vocals for the song. Another reason the track is important to him is because of a memory he has with Jackson years later. “John and I met with Michael at Neverland Ranch, and when he came into the room and sat down, John and I got on each side of him and started singing, ‘Tweedly-deedly-dee. Tweedly-deedly-dee.’ [Michael] was a fun guy. He had such a bright spirit.”
Memories of music fill Tom’s head when thinking of Jackson, and are close to his heart. “Michael was an amazing spirit and had a real gift for singing,” he said. “Everything he did, I found to be unique, funky, hip and tasteful. He was one of the greatest entertainers I’ve ever encountered and I’ll never forget him.”
