Damn it! Ever since the 2000 election, I never know what's parody and what's not. It's wearing me out!

So there.
That is priceless.
But the Earth First Battalion is one strange creature. Wandering around Jim Channon's site is bewildering. A truly "para" military.
This speaks to the concept of "strange loops" I have mentioned before.
We have a cadre of people embedded in the human potential movement and actually becoming dominant players within it, possibly even directing large chunks of it (SRI, Esalen et al) .
We learn that they all have deep state connections. We then are told their efforts were fruitless, no need to look any further.
We then learn that many of said players have dealings with a web of world elite who appear to fund/support/believe their esoteric skills and goals. Some appear to have direct links with Scientology and other cultlike entities.
They then start popping up in the ongoing story of UFOs (The Nine). Connections to theories of alien intervention/surveillance/contact are fleshed out.
Said players then flood the scene with proclamations that they were in fact very successful (remote viewing etc.). Theories abound , attempting to determine if this is disinformation or some high strangeness that suggests true alien visitation.
Then a mockumentary/comedy blows it all up for entertainment, followed shortly by Jim Channon insisting its not funny at all but damn serious world saving business.
Oh, and Jim puts all our minds at ease by declaring that this has always been an open, transparent effort to , you know, destroy people without bullets. Peace, dude:

His real gift is that he has scanned the social architecture of the earth and has created bundled solutions for many parts of the coming world. His focus is on qualities of life assembled in beautiful settings. He has interviewed over 2000 leaders on their ideas of a future with a higher purpose. Those ideas have been assembled in PROJECT EARTHRISE that he created with the fellows at the World Business Academy. They are ideas projected 100 years out. We believe he may be more fluent in long range futures than anyone alive at the moment. He has an extra-ordinary set of skills.
What a guy. Hey, wait, what about the Commanders Super Friends?
Where Are Members Today?
Not surprisingly many original members remain actively involved in planetary affairs. Jim Channon lives in Hawaii on an eco-homestead and has pioneered a wide range of evolutionary ideas for living. Jim is still actively engaged in envisioning the global militaries of the world coming together as a New Earth Army to deal with environmental and social problems of the future. He calls this endeavor Operation Noble Steward and has written about on his website and discussed it in his many You Tube videos. John Alexander, the father of non-lethal weapons has just completed a major analysis of Africa and has written two books on the future of warfare. His character in the film is played more or less by the George Clooney role although there are few direct correspondences since the comedy writer needed all the creative license he could get. John’s book, The Warrior’s Edge, provided an accurate description of many of his projects that explored phenomenology. Still exploring, he currently serves as a council member of the Society for Scientific Exploration [404 Not Found and the board of directors of the International Remote Viewers’s Association [www-irva.org]. Major General Bert Stubblebine is developing a sustainable community in Panama and raising global awareness about questionable medical practices created by large pharmaceutical companies involved in Codex. Most of the 130 some odd members of the Army’s original think-tank called Task Force Delta (where these ideas were spawned) have gone on to positions of meaningful social responsibility and other future-based technologies.
Phew! I am going to hug my cat.
