 When Disclosure Serves Secrecy
War mongers and militarists in cahoots with industrialists who share a certain bizarre eschatological bent: A dark view of the future, featuring an extraterrestrial Armageddon - or at least the threat of it.
If you think the cold war was costly, wait until you see the price tag for this ‘protection' from the ‘threats' in space: The trillions spent on the cold war will look like a blue light special.
Strictly speaking, the militarists and war-mongers, itching to ‘kick some alien butt' as it was said in the movie Independence Day, may actually only want a pretext to justify their existence and get the world to eventually spend huge sums of money on a perceived (if contrived) threat from space.

 Three Future Wars
I believe that the Gog Magog war and the Armageddon wars are two separate wars.
In the popular mind, the Gog/Magog War and the Armageddon war have more often than not been confused as one rather than two wars, the tendency being to merge the Scriptures which detail the events of the Gog/Magog War with those of Armageddon.
This indicates that he is speaking of The battle of Armageddon (not to be confused with the Gog/Magog battle, which is before the final battle).

It's as if his guitar playing is representing the depressed and downtrodden souls of the period until he reaches his climax, where it represents the chance for hope in the future.
If "Maggot Brain" was a solo voice wailing out against the negativity of the time, then the aforementioned "Wars of Armageddon" was multiple voices living out that depressing lifestyle.
Given the atmosphere at the time - where riots were seemingly rampant and the continuances of the FBI in violating the civil rights of Americans - this song effectively portrayed the confusedness of it all.

 Omens of Wars and Armageddon Tom Slemen
For centuries the belief has persisted that before the outbreak of a major war, there are many distinct omens that warn of the coming conflict.
The drum was heard on three other occasions during the 20th century; on the day the First World War began in 1914, during the retreat from Dunkirk in 1940, and in 1987, but why the drum sounded on this occasion is anybody's guess.
However, it is known that in that year, paranoia about the United States was at an all-time high in the Soviet Union, and according to Yeltsin and Gorbachev, military chiefs at the Kremlin actually believed a strong rumour that America was going to launch an all-out nuclear attack on the USSR.

The Second and Third Wars for Armageddon saw Ghazghkull Thraka and his Ork minions battling for control of the Hive world to no avail, although Imperial losses were tremendous.

 subway cinema | a brief history of korean movies
From Japan's defeat at the end of World War II (marking the end of their occupation of Korea) to the outbreak of the Korean War (1953) Korea was making approximately 15 movies a year.
Their work has been almost impossible to view outside of Korea, and while they created the films which have come to be viewed as Korea's classics (much as the Hollywood studios in the 30's and 40's generated America's classic cinema) they have been virtually ignored in the history of world cinema.
And Korea, a country that has lost half of its film history to wars and occupation, is a part of this web that provides an alternative to Hollywood, and a film vocabulary of modern living that anyone, in any number of countries, can understand.

In between "Maggot Brain" and "Armageddon," the opening and closing cuts, is an uneven group of shorter, more precise funk songs.
With the exception of the two long showcase cuts one awfully muddy and jumbled, the other a fine sweet-and-sour dish the music on the whole is more competent than exciting.
Side two, culminating in (or descending to) "Armageddon," is a horrible mush.

If we desire to see justice done and see wars end and yes, even the end of all forms of killing, violence, terror and death--we must realize that this can only come about through the kingdom of God coming to this world.
At Jesus' second coming, HE will then rule with a rod of iron and the devil will be chained and those that chose to be his followers destroyed.
Satan will no longer tempt men with evil, so there will be no more wars, murder and evil in the earth.

Mysteries have their corpses, and modern fiction their dysfunctional families, but Science Fiction has wars, plague, Armageddon, etc. In Fantasy there is prophesy that has to be fulfilled, dangerous quests, and magic that can grant wishes or turn on you in an instant.
Legacies (paper) from that age, especially weapons, still remain and are used in the wars.
Mostly this is a period study of attitudes and reactions to the depression and it is fascinating.

Jay-Z's dis of Nas, "The Takeover," was based on a sample from the Doors' "Five to One," an anti-Vietnam War song released during 1968's long hot summer whose title supposedly alluded to a demographic menace: five times as many people under the age of 21 as over.
In part a reaction to the Sept. 11 attacks, the album reconciles Christian spirituality with a radical notion of diversity--putting together Bronx beats, Cantopop, biblical chapter and verse, and the words "peace" and "As-Salaam Alaikum" in the same song.
Nuchow--who likes to point out that our national anthem "glorifies war" but has agreed to sing for U.N. troops stationed in Kosovo later this year--believes music is not merely a product, it's a process.

 Librarium Online - Battle For Armaggedon 1,2 and 3   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
According to the Critical Hit timeline, the First War for Armageddon was in 444.M41 when a Chaos incursion led by Angron and the World Eaters was beaten back by the Space Wolves and the Grey Knights.
However, most other timelines have this war dated at 891.M41, which I believe is more correct, since the Games Workshop boardgame expansion set ‘Chaos Attack’ that focuses on this war states that it took place some 300 years before Ghazghkull made his first foray into the Armageddon system and started the second Great War.
For more information on the Armageddon wars, check the Critical Hit articles on the First Armageddon War and the Third Armageddon War, as well as 'Codex: Armageddon'.

 Culture Wars: Schoeman Review
Another word for that offensive is the modern era, an age dedicated to usury, appetite and impiety, an age which became progressively more violent and destructive as Europe moved farther and farther from its Catholic roots.
That violence reached a culmination of sorts in the 20th century, when Europe's fratricidal war, World War I, paved the way for the Jewish/Bolshevist takeover of Russia and large segments of Eastern Europe, which in turn set up the mechanism of reaction against that reign of terror, namely, National Socialism under Hitler.
The outline of human history seems to be taking on a more and more biblical configuration with each passing day, something which had not gone unnoticed by the descendants of the Fifth Monarchy Men in our day.

The Revelation of Jesus the spirit of prophecy said 1/4 of mankind, roughly 1.2 billion people will be killed by war, famine, pestilence and catastrophe.

While this is obviously very much a product of the times (in Vietnam war era America it would have been hard to have some political references somewhere in your music), and the idealism of the record can grate on some people, in a way that merely strengthens the album still further.
After all, although some of the lyrics here focus on the staple of women, and Clinton’s love for them, ideas such as "You've lost the fight and the winner is fear" would be considered as lyrical genius if more conventionally respected songwriters wrote them.
With the opening and closing track both being over 9 minutes long and no other song going over the 4 minute mark it's short enough to be easily listenable to, but with enough themes and ideas on never to get boring.

Hazel's aching and languishing feeling on that song is diametrically opposed to Jimi Hendrix's fiery style, though in general Hendrix comparisons are in order.

Armageddon is more than a strategic point on the map, it more than just a factory planet; Armageddon is a pure representation of the constant warfare that inflicts the Imperium.
This lavish, full colour book details the history of Armageddon’s three wars, told mostly from the points of view of those who were there, fighting and directing the battles.
It includes dozens of maps, articles, pictures, pamphlets, posters and diagrams, to make up a comprehensive source book of information on this most fascinating and devastating conflict.

 EN World - Morrus' D&D / d20 News & Reviews Site - D&D Armageddon - Blood Wars End, Sigil Falls to Seige
The Blood Wars end as Demons and Devils are shown that if they had focused their energies towards taking over the Planes, rather than fighting each other, the worlds would be theirs by now.
Their actions resulted in the decimation and downfall of their race from power, probably they were nearly wiped out by the demons, devils, or both.
So to go back and undo it, they would also have to undo the root cause of the blood war, which would mean the fiends have been united all along and conquored the multiverse millenia ago.
