"THE BRIDGE OF SWORDS"– Sep 29, 2012 (Kryon Channelling by Lee Carroll) - (Text version)

“… What have we told you about the bridge? Actually, not much except that in crossing the bridge, the old energy ones were not going to like it. Old energy does not want you to escape! Old energy doesn't want you to cross the bridge because it can't cross. Did you know that? It can't cross. The old paradigms of Human nature that you've known all of these millenniums have to stay on the old side of the bridge. It cannot cross, for the bridge rejects all that is not in love, compassion and light. Those things that are dark, including Human nature of the past, will not be able to go. But the ones I speak to right now are already on the bridge. That was your design, old soul, and those are the words that are ringing in your ears to this day and the ones given at the wind of birth, that this might happen in your lifetime. So what's going to happen next?

Swords

Let us talk about the swords: When you hear the word sword, the first thing that occurs to you is battle. The Bridge of Swords is a battle and we told you that as well. Swords are metaphoric and they mean many things, so let us describe the things we mean them to say to you.

Number one: They are indeed a weapon in a battle. There is a battle coming. "Kryon, does that mean there's going to be a war?" Potentially, yes. Right now we will tell you that the Middle East cooks itself. You've noticed, haven't you? What do you know about the Middle East, dear one? Let's start examining things for a moment. What energy did you grow up in? What was the energy of the Middle East? In the '40s, what was the energy? With the establishment of the state of Israel, you built a wall of hate, both sides. The wall was so thick that the children of both sides were taught to hate one another as soon as they were able to understand the language. They were told who their enemies were. Now, where were you then?

Some of you weren't here yet. By the time you arrived, in your youth, were you aware of the Middle East? Not particularly. "What's the hatred about?" you might ask. What if I told you it's about a family feud? Two sons of a Jewish master are involved. One founded the Arabs and one remained a Jew. They don't want to hear this, but they are all Jews. (Don't tell them this.)

If you look at the lineage, it's pretty obvious and yet it's a complete and total set-up for either solution or war. The set-up would have this world ending in a conflagration that would have been brought about by this hatred. That's in the prophecy of Nostradamus and your scripture, but it is no longer the prophecy of the planet. Yet the hatred still exists. The hatred is as great today as it was then, but where was all the terrorism 40 years ago? It was isolated.

Those in Israel and Palestine and surrounding areas took the brunt of it, but now it's seemingly everywhere - and you're worried. Why would this be? The answer is that the old energy was happy to have this hatred contained, for it would keep it going and never involve outsiders. Outsiders tend to bring unwanted light to the party. Suddenly, the whole earth is involved and can see the entire scenario before them. The old guard wants war, just like all the eons before them. The ones on the bridge are holding the light and showing the earth how to cross. Even many younger ones in Israel and Palestine and Iran are holding light! It's all around the old guard and they are furious, for they are losing the "battle of hatred." …”

"The Recalibration of Awareness – Apr 20/21, 2012 (Kryon channeled by Lee Carroll) (Subjects: Old Energy, Recalibration Lectures, God / Creator, Religions/Spiritual systems (Catholic Church, Priests/Nun’s, Worship, John Paul Pope, Women in the Church otherwise church will go, Current Pope won’t do it), Middle East, Jews, Governments will change (Internet, Media, Democracies, Dictators, North Korea, Nations voted at once), Integrity (Businesses, Tobacco Companies, Bankers/ Financial Institutes, Pharmaceutical company to collapse), Illuminati (Started in Greece, with Shipping, Financial markets, Stock markets, Pharmaceutical money (fund to build Africa, to develop)), Shift of Human Consciousness, (Old) Souls, Women, Masters to/already come back, Global Unity.... etc.) - (Text version)

“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Dutch parliament to vote on net neutrality bill

Deutsche Welle, 26 May 2011

The Dutch bill would allow for more
Internet telephony

Under a new Dutch telecommunications bill, ISPs and mobile providers would be barred from limiting heavy-bandwidth applications, or charging users extra to use online voice applications like Skype.

Blocking or charging users for services like Skype has been standard practice for some cellular providers - but a new amendment to the Dutch telecommunications act is set to pull the plug on those policies.

The country's Minister for Economic Affairs, Agriculture and Innovation, Maxime Verhagen, announced the changes on Tuesday in the Dutch House of Representatives. If the bill passes, which it is expected to, the Netherlands would become the first country in Europe and the second in the world (after Chile) to enshrine the concept of net neutrality in law.

The net neutrality amendment, for example, would ensure that consumers do not have to pay extra to use certain online applications - and most controversially, voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) technologies when on mobile phone networks.

The concept of net neutrality dictates that all data on the Internet, regardless of whether or not it is an e-mail, a video game, or a voice call, should be treated equally by Internet providers, telecom firms, and mobile phone companies. Such companies have historically been resistant to ensuring net neutrality, as many of them say that they need to be able to "throttle" or "shape" traffic accordingly, particularly as online video and VoIP applications like Skype skyrocket.

"The government believes a tax on certain services such as Skype or WhatsApp go too far," a press release posted on the ministry's website said.

Some telecoms have placed restrictions on such programs, in hopes of safeguarding revenues derived from traditional voice and texting packages.

Economic Affairs Minister Maxime
Verhagen endorsed the new net
neutrality rules

The Netherlands: digital pioneer?

Verhagen is set to hold consultations with the European Union to ensure that the amendment does not interfere with EU regulations.

So far there are no details available on the substance of those talks, or on how the Dutch government plans to enforce the new legislation, ministry spokesman Edwin van Scherrenburg told Deutsche Welle in an e-mail.

"The minister will get in touch with Brussels/the EU, since EU law is very important in this field," he wrote.

Net neutrality has also been a key issue for the European Union in 2011. On Wednesday, new EU telecoms rules on transparency and service quality took effect.

In addition, the European Commission announced in April that it would publish the results of an investigation into whether companies engaged in "blocking or throttling (of) certain types of traffic" by the end of the year – saying evidence of any barriers would prompt the EU to mull tougher net neutrality safeguards.

VoIP technologies have changed
the way telecoms are doing business

Changing business models

The amendment came in response to a motion on net neutrality put forth by Bruno Braakhuis, a member of the House representing the Green Party (GroenLinks). Braakhuis told Deutsche Welle that the legislation would be handed over to parliamentary support staff on Thursday and be brought into voting next week.

A majority of lawmakers have already announced their support for the changes. The amendment would prevent mobile Internet operators from selectively blocking, charging for or slowing certain applications.

"That would really be a violation of net neutrality, and it would also open the way for common Internet service providers to do the same thing," Braakhuis told Deutsche Welle.

He said online mobile operators must reconfigure the way they make their money - adding that charging extra for faster Internet speed, more bandwidth or higher data volumes could prove a viable profit alternative.

"If you want to have YouTube on your phone, you can try the low bandwidth, but you will be pretty frustrated," Braakhuis quipped.

The mobile data revolution

The changes stand to alter how telecommunications companies approach fees for data access and services.

A spokesman for KPN, which has announced plans to roll out new tariffs this summer, said the company will be watching the amendment closely.

"We will of course take into consideration what the minister has said," Stefan Simons, a KPN press officer, told Deutsche Welle in an interview.

Simons acknowledged the need for KPN to switch to new fee structures focusing on digital, not analog technologies.

"Mobile data is really picking up in the Netherlands, so that's why we need to do this," he said.

The company highlighted the phenomenon in KPN's report on its first-quarter results for 2011, noting the growing popularity of smartphone applications that allow users to bypass traditional cellular communications in favor of online options.

"The usage of these 'apps' lead to decreasing SMS and voice usage, resulting in lower service revenues," the report stated, adding that the company's current approaches "are not sufficiently able to monetize on the data usage growth."

The company's future strategy includes plans to move toward a "data-centric portfolio" that varies based on speed and service quality.

Some users are opting for online instant messaging apps over traditional
text messages

A model for Europe?

Europe is also becoming more data-centric as a whole. Cisco estimates that the number of mobile-only Internet users in western Europe will nearly double in 2011 compared to 2010, and growth is also expected in central and eastern Europe.

Globally, Cisco forecasts that global mobile data traffic for VoIP applications will increase at a compound annual growth rate of 42 percent from 2010 through 2015.

However, some Internet activists are skeptical about whether net neutrality legislation similar to what has been proposed in the Netherlands could be adopted on an EU-wide level.

"As a whole, the European Union is rapidly developing a framework where such an approach would be politically impossible," said Joe McNamee, the head of European Digital Rights, in an e-mail sent to Deutsche Welle.

As recently as April, the EU has called for an expansion of powers for the Intellectual Property Rights Enforcement Directive, which would broaden surveillance powers at the ISP level as a way to combat digital piracy.

"The more the Commission applauds these generally useless PR-driven initiatives now, the more politically impossible it will be for them to prevent overtly commercially-driven interferences in traffic in the future," he added.

Citizens of all the countries on Earth can talk to one another without electronic borders. The young people of those nations can all see each other, talk to each other, and express opinions. No matter what the country does to suppress it, they're doing it anyway. They are putting together a network of consciousness, of oneness, a multicultural consciousness. It's here to stay. It's part of the new energy. The young people know it and are leading the way.

I gave you a prophecy more than 10 years ago. I told you there would come a day when "everyone could talk to everyone and, therefore, there could be no conspiracy."
