'Anonymous' Warns NATO: 'This Is No Longer Your World'

NATO has poked the bear of the internet (which responded by announcing that it's actually a hydra).
Anthropomorphic confusion aside, a NATO security report about "Anonymous"—the mysterious "hacktivist" group responsible for attacks on MasterCard, Visa, PayPal, Amazon and, most recently, Sony—has led the underground group to respond by cautioning NATO, "This is no longer your world. It is our world - the people's world."
(More on TIME.com: Spain Nabs Alleged 'Anonymous' PlayStation Network Hackers)
NATO's report, issued last month, warned about the rising tide of politically-motivated cyberattacks, singling out Anonymous as the most sophisticated and high-profile of the known hacktivist groups:
"Today, the ad hoc international group of hackers and activists is said to have thousands of operatives and has no set rules or membership. It remains to be seen how much time Anonymous has for pursuing such paths. The longer these attacks persist the more likely countermeasures will be developed, implemented, the groups will be infiltrated and perpetrators persecuted," the report read, also asking, "Can one invoke Article 5 of the Washington Treaty after a cyber attack? And what response mechanisms should the Alliance employ against the attacker? Should the retaliation be limited to cyber means only, or should conventional military strikes also be considered?"
In response, Anonymous issued a lengthy statement (Google-cached version; the site is having server issues currently) that says, in part:
"We do not wish to threaten anybody's way of life. We do not wish to dictate anything to anybody. We do not wish to terrorize any nation.
We merely wish to remove power from vested interests and return it to the people - who, in a democracy, it should never have been taken from in the first place.
The government makes the law. This does not give them the right to break it. If the government was doing nothing underhand or illegal, there would be nothing 'embarassing' [sic] about Wikileaks revelations, nor would there have been any scandal emanating from HBGary. The resulting scandals were not a result of Anonymous' or Wikileaks' revelations, they were the result of the CONTENT of those revelations. And responsibility for that content can be laid solely at the doorstep of policymakers who, like any corrupt entity, naively believed that they were above the law and that they would not be caught.
A lot of government and corporate comment has been dedicated to 'how we can avoid a similar leak in the future'. Such advice ranges from better security, to lower levels of clearance, from harsher penalties for whistleblowers, to censorship of the press.
Our message is simple: Do not lie to the people and you won't have to worry about your lies being exposed. Do not make corrupt deals and you won't have to worry about your corruption being laid bare. Do not break the rules and you won't have to worry about getting in trouble for it."
It goes on to warn, "do not make the mistake of challenging Anonymous. Do not make the mistake of believing you can behead a headless snake. If you slice off one head of Hydra, ten more heads will grow in its place. If you cut down one Anon, ten more will join us purely out of anger at your trampling of dissent."
Quite when Anonymous started modeling itself after fictional terrorist organizations is unclear, but the message is just the opposite: NATO is on warning. How they'll respond to this—if they'll respond—remains to be seen, but I doubt that I'm the only person hoping that any response will be far more measured than bringing up conventional military strikes again.

We are moving at warp speed through frequencies, vibrations, and physical experiences beyond anything Humanity’s physical bodies have collectively endured. The Divine Intent of this rapid acceleration is to strengthen our bodies at a cellular level, so that our I AM Presence can move us through the surfacing negativity quickly. Then we will be able to effectively anchor our NEW Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love into the physical plane. This will be accomplished August 13-18, 2011, through the newly expanded Threefold Flames now pulsating through every person’s heart. It is true that we are in uncharted waters, but our I AM Presence is able to take command in ways we have not experienced since our fall from Grace aeons ago. This aspect of our Divinity is daily and hourly guiding us through these monumental changes in alignment with our Divine Plans and our highest good. Listen to your heart. Be still and KNOW.
It is vital that we stop clinging to the obsolete behavior patterns that no longer serve us. Instead, we must push away from the shore and turn our faces toward the radiant Light of our Father-Mother God. Then as we are catapulted through this fast moving River of Life, we will KNOW that the Light of God is ALWAYS Victorious and that WE are that Light! The key words for this summer are Trust, Self-Acceptance, and New Beginnings. This is the Cosmic Moment for which we have been preparing for lifetimes. Everything we need to succeed God Victoriously in our particular facet of this Divine Mission is already within us. Be at Peace. All is well.
This summer the Company of Heaven is standing in readiness awaiting the invitation to intervene in our lives. Powerful celestial alignments are occurring that will help us release and let go of the behavior patterns that have kept us stuck in our dysfunctional human miscreations. This is an incredibly powerful and sacred time. This month we will experience three eclipses and the June Solstice, all of which will provide unique opportunities for Humanity to add to the Light of the world as we pave the way for the unprecedented influx of Divine Love that will be secured in the physical plane through every person's Heart Flame, in August.
Each of these alignments will build on the previous influx of Light which will catapult the Earth and ALL her Life further up the Spiral of Evolution. This will move us a quantum leap toward our ultimate goal of Ascension into the 5th-Dimensional frequencies of Divine Love and Unity Consciousness.
June 1, 2011 - New Moon Solar Eclipse
June 15, 2011 - Full Moon Lunar Eclipse
June 21, 2011 - Solstice
July 1, 2011 - New Moon Solar Eclipse
August 13-18, 2011 - Securing Humanity's newly created Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love in the physical plane of Earth through every person's newly expanded Heart Flame.
I would like to share with you a little background about this Cosmic Moment. 2011 began with an incredible influx of Light. On December 21, 2010, we experienced the Solstice and a very powerful Full Moon Lunar Eclipse. The synchronicity of these two events occurring at the same time had happened only one other time in the past 2,000 years.
That Lunar Eclipse took place within two degrees of the Galactic Center which opened a mighty portal of Light from the Core of Creation into the Center of the Earth. The Light of God that poured through that portal initiated incomparable pivotal changes for all Life evolving on this planet.
Once the portal was opened, the Light of God built in momentum until the New Moon Solar Eclipse which took place on January 4, 2011. During that monumental influx of Light, Lightworkers around the world joined hearts with the Company of Heaven and cocreated a NEW Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love. The powerful Light that bathed the planet during that two week period catapulted every atomic and subatomic particle and wave of Life on Earth further up the Spiral of Evolution. This paved the way for a God Victorious 2011 which is a year that the Beings of Light have heralded as “The Transfiguring Year of Rebirth and Renewal.”
On Christmas Day, in the midst of that incredibly powerful influx of Light, our beloved son Joao got sick. On December 29, 2010, he passed away from complications with pneumonia. Joao was 42 years old. He left behind his wife and three beautiful sons. Since his transition, Joao has shared with his Father and I that his time on Earth was complete. He said that he was able to move directly into the Light and that he is now working with Archangel Michael and the Legions of Healing. He said that he will be able to “Gift” Humanity in our service to the Light in ways that he could not accomplish from the physical plane.
2011 is the eleventh year of the New Millennium. Eleven is the master number that reflects the transformation of the physical into the Divine. It is the perfect frequency of vibration for the final preparations that are necessary in order to strengthen the body of Mother Earth and the bodies of Humanity, so that we can withstand the influx of Light that will occur in 2012.
Precious Heart, if you are reading these words it is because the Presence of God within you, your I AM Presence, has magnetized this information into your sphere of awareness. This means that you have been preparing for a very long time to assist with this facet of the unfolding Divine Plan for this planet and all her Life.
Take these words into the deepest recesses of your heart where Divine Intelligence prevails, and listen to the guidance of your I AM Presence. You will KNOW just how your skill, wisdom, courage, strength, talent, and myriad gifts will best accomplish this mighty feat. The entire Company of Heaven is standing in readiness to assist you with your part of this mission.
To grasp the magnitude of what that means we must realize that once something is established in the Realms of Cause nothing can prevent it from manifesting in the world of effects, which is the physical plane of Earth. The only variable is how long it will take to become a tangible reality. That variable is determined by the thoughts, words, actions, and feelings of you and me and every other person on the planet. In other words, the more we empower our New Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love the sooner we will experience the wonder of that reality.
The Company of Heaven has revealed to us that empowering the Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love is in fact the greatest need of the hour, and it is indeed the next phase of the unfolding Divine Plan.
Tucson, Arizona, is the portal through which the Flame of Transfiguring Divine Love enters the Earth and blesses all Life. We have been told by the Beings of Light in the Realms of Illumined Truth that the Flame of Transfiguring Divine Love is the most powerful frequency of Love available to the evolutions of Earth at this time. This Sacred Fire is the last best hope for awakening the recalcitrant souls who are resisting moving forward in the Light. It is also the magnetizing force through which our NEW Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love will be permanently secured in the physical plane of Earth, the world of EFFECTS.
During this eleventh year of the new millennium, a plan has been set into motion that will greatly accelerate the physical manifestation of our NEW Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love.
The Divine Plan
Our Father-Mother God and the Beings of Light in the Realms of Truth are sending forth a Clarion Call to all embodied Lightworkers; this includes YOU. We are being asked to respond to our Heart's Call and to gather within the portal of the powerful 5th-Dimensional frequencies of Transfiguring Divine Love in Tucson, Arizona. Together we will form a mighty transformer through which the Love of God will flow to secure our NEW Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love in the physical plane on behalf of ALL Humanity.
We are in the midst of the greatest shift of consciousness ever to occur in the history of time. This shift is lifting ALL Humanity into a new level of awareness that will eventually result in transforming this sweet Earth into a planet of Love, Peace, Abundance, and Joy.
The level of higher consciousness we are tapping into is reuniting us with our own Divinity, and healing our self-inflicted separation from our I AM Presence. Once this unprecedented shift of consciousness has been fully integrated into the conscious minds and emotional, feeling worlds of Humanity, every soul will realize the Oneness of Life. Then each person will KNOW that we can no longer rely on our mental perceptions or our logical thinking alone. People will clearly understand that we must now reach into the wisdom of our hearts and tap into the Divine Potential that holds the vision of who we are and why we are on Earth during this Cosmic Moment of Transfiguration.
Never has a planet that has fallen this far into the depths of fear and separation been given an opportunity to ascend in consciousness at such an accelerated pace. We are always a sum total of all of our experiences, so as we complete our shift of consciousness on Earth we will bring our unique collective experiences with us into our next evolutionary school of learning. This means that our collective experiences will be recorded in the Halls of Knowledge and made available to every evolving soul. Then the Sons and Daughters of God evolving throughout the Universe will be able to learn and benefit from our experiences without ever having to delve into the depths of duality, pain, and suffering that the souls evolving on Earth have endured. For this reason, the entire Universe is rejoicing, and the Company of Heaven is assisting us in unprecedented ways.
For the activity of Light that will take place August 13-18, 2011, it is critical that Lightworkers from around the world be physically present. Through our unified Heart Flames, we will form the transformer through which our NEW Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love will be permanently secured in the physical world of form. The Lightworkers who have been prepared to serve in this wondrous way, on behalf of Humanity and ALL Life on this sweet Earth, will know who they are through the inner promptings of their heart. So listen to your heart, and Trust your inner guidance. Your Light is urgently needed!
In addition to those who are inspired to be physically present, there will be Lightworkers who will join in consciousness from points of Light around the world. These Lightworkers will project the Light flowing through their Heart Flames into the Portal of Transfiguring Divine Love where the Lightworkers are physically gathered in Tucson, Arizona. Thus our unified efforts will expand a thousand times a thousandfold.
Every Lightworker will be in his or her right and perfect place. No facet of this Divine Plan is any more important than another. What IS important, is that we respond to whatever our I AM Presence is guiding us to do. We must Trust and KNOW that if we are being guided to be physically present within the Portal of Transfiguring Divine Love, then our I AM Presence and the Company of Heaven will assist us in paving the way. This is true whether we need assistance with time, energy, better health, or money to accomplish this facet of our Divine Mission.
The vehicle that will be used for this gathering of Lightworkers is the 25th Annual World Congress on Illumination. This event will take place August 13-18, 2011, during the 25th Celebration of Harmonic Convergence. We will gather at the beautiful Loews Ventana Canyon Resort in Tucson, Arizona. This exquisite resort exists within the heart of the Portal of Transfiguring Divine Love.
All of the information you will need to participate in this unprecedented opportunity is available on our website. Just go to our Home Page www.eraofpeace.org and click on the box that says “The 25th Annual World Congress on Illumination.”
This sacred conclave will be a celestial experience for everyone involved. Each day, as we successfully fulfill one phase of the Divine Plan, the Spiritual Hierarchy will reveal the next phase of the plan to us. As we sojourn through the various activities of Light, under the Divine Guidance of our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven, our mission will be victoriously accomplished.
This event will take place at Loews Ventana Canyon Resort, which is nestled in the unique beauty and the nurturing, healing environment of the southwestern desert in Tucson, Arizona. The resort is surrounded by lush desert vegetation and towering two- to three-hundred-year-old saguaro cacti. These expressions of the Elemental Kingdom stand as mighty sentinels while anchoring the Light of God into the Earth.
When you enter this portal of Light, you will experience the awesome radiance of the Flame of Healing Through the Power of Infinite Transmutation which cradles the Flame of Transfiguring Divine Love. As these Sacred Fires from the Heart of our Father-Mother God bathe your Being, you will be blessed with the familiar feeling of coming home.
The World Congress On Illumination is truly a life-transforming event that will provide you with the opportunity to meet old friends from around the world with whom you have been serving for aeons of time. Fellow Lightworkers will join hearts with you and support you in your monumental service to the Light.
The Divine Plan we are being called to fulfill will be accomplished through myriad activities of Light. We will be joined at inner levels by the Solar Logos from Suns beyond Suns, the entire Company of Heaven, the God Selves of ALL Humanity, the Divine Intelligence that directs the Elemental Kingdom, the Mighty Elohim, and the Legions of Angels throughout Infinity.
The entire Universe is supporting us in this wondrous endeavor. The Beings of Light have been given permission to assist us in miraculous ways, but the Lightworkers on Earth are the predominant force bringing this Divine Plan into physical manifestation.
Our responsibility is enormous, but as we join our hearts together, we have the absolute ability to succeed God Victoriously.
Just for a moment, go within to the Divinity of your Heart Flame, and experience the overwhelming Gratitude and Love pouring forth from the Legions of Light in the Heavenly Realms. Feel the deep appreciation they are sending to you for your willingness to serve Humanity during this critical moment in the evolution of this precious planet. We are blessed beyond measure to be able to assist all Life evolving on Earth in this miraculous way.
God Bless YOU, for your willingness to be the Open Door that will secure our NEW Planetary CAUSE of Transfiguring Divine Love in the physical plane of Earth.
And so it is!
