"V" and Obama?

T

he new television series "V" is "aimed" at Barack Obama's regime?
Oh please, but so some are saying, or using as a device to hype the "new" television program. In fact Glen Garvin of the Chicago Tribune is sure of it.

V is the story of creepy lizard-like aliens who, disguised as human beings come to take over the world.
They come with a message of hope and change and universal health care and in slick, snake-like fashion begin to mesmerize people into a worshipful attitude.
The univeral health care includes brtual, inhuman experiments on the human population.
Dissenters are bullied and done away with. Resistance is futile.
In the series the alien lizards also felt that many things were aimed at them and answered the "problem" with a repressive atmosphere of distrust where even children informed on their parents.

Says Glen Garvin of Tribune news,

Welcome to ABC's "V," the most fascinating and bound to be the most controversial new show of the fall television season. Nominally a rousing sci-fi space opera about alien invaders bent on the conquest (and digestion) of all humanity, it's also a barbed commentary on Obamamania that will infuriate the president's supporters and delight his detractors.

The problem with this is that "V" was a television program long before Obama was President or even old enough to be president.
The original "V" was a two part television mini-series which aired in 1983 starring Marc Singer and Faye Grant. That's 26 years ago when Barack was 22.
Diana, played by Jane Badler, is the sadistic, ruthless and cruel number two leader of the aliens who is shown eating a living guinea pig in one episode's very "wish I'd never seen it" scene.

In 1984-85 a series was spawned from the miniseries.
The premise was identical.
A vicious alien lizard race , disguised as humans and promising all manner of improvements, peace, universal health care and hope, begin to trick the population into a mental slavery that results in the Vatican even declaring them to be divine creatures. Their real mission is to carry out horrific experiments on people and use them for food and surrealistic reproduction.
The symbol of the resistance movement is a V painted in blood red color.


There are some who say that there seem to be universal warnings and precursors to real life situations in books or plays, movies,etc.Warnings to the universal mind one might say.
One such was a book about a ship that strikes an iceberg and sinks in similar fashion to the Titanic.
The name of the novel was ‘Futility and the Wreck of the Titan’ by Morgan Robertson. In the story the largest ship afloat strikes an iceberg at night in April and sinks. She was carrying too few lifeboats, ‘As few as the law allowed’, and was considered unsinkable, a world wonder, the "Greatest of the works of man".
The book was written in 1898 and it's original statistics on the ship Titan were nearly identical in every way to that of the real Titanic.The circumstances of the wrecks, the sinkings and speed of the ships matched in so many ways.

Gulliver's Travels predicted magnetic levitation, something we can see today,machines that write books and 2 moons circling Mars. This was written before the discovery of those moons.
George Orwell foresaw the governmental intrusion and tyranny into private lives in his book
1984.They do so with surveillance cameras and helicopters. Today Britain spies on it's citizens with surveillance cameras and helicopters more than any other nation.
William Gibson's Neuromancer foresaw the internet with people able to plug into a virtual reality complex.
The television show The Lone Gunman predicted an attack on the World Trade Center buildings. In the show, however, government radio controlled planes were to be flown into the buildings not Arab terrorists.
The plot was stopped just in time in the book.
Though the scenario differed it was uncanny that the method was so similar.

Is there such a thing as secular prophecy? If so it is a bit obscure sometimes.
Is it time to look more seriously at such books and programs and keep the thought they might be "prophetic" in the back of the mind?
Tons of websites out there say it is and are devoted to analyzing just such things.


Personally I have no idea. Do you?
