Sidney Harrison Lee was born on June 24, 1825 in Arlington, Indiana. He enlisted in the Union Army in January 1864 and served in Company E, 17th Infantry Regiment Indiana under General James H. Wilson during "Wilson's Raid", the last organized campaign of the Civil War. The letters he wrote to his wife Ann Eliza chronicle spring campaigns through Alabama and Georgia in 1864 and 1865. Lee was a blacksmith and farmer; his letters include extensive detail on crops, farms, and the communities through which he passed. There is "solgering" of course; as an expert horseman, Lee served primarily as a scout and skirmisher during the campaigns. Although he came to love the South, his experiences are reflected in a growing indignation with the condition of poor and enslaved people he encountered. Lee moved his family to Alabama after the war, where he was a successful and honored community leader before his life was tragically ended.
The Rise of Mystery Babylon - The Tower of Babel (Part 1)

--- REVISED AND UPDATED 2021 EDITION (WITH NEW COVER DESIGN) --- Part 1 From Genesis to Revelation, the name Babylon seems to come up, again and again, throughout the Holy Scriptures. In these volumes, we'll begin to discover just what Mystery Babylon was, how it survived, and into what various thought-forms it had morphed, all throughout the centuries. Over the ages, these Babylonian systems were able to flourish, manipulating a lot of what we see and hear... even today, slowly bringing us away from God, and towards the evil one. There may, also, be a "parallel of existences," here: the time around Noah's Flood and the times of today. Jesus, after all, was the one who said: "As the days of Noe (Noah) were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be" (Mat. 24:37). Could one side of this parallel have taken place in these early days of Genesis? Could the other side be the times we are facing now? Can we look to Genesis as an indicator of what will bring on the "end times" as we know it? Once we begin to see the parallels pan out, we'll also discover that Mystery Babylon is the "thought-machine" responsible for bringing it all back to us, on so many levels. These volumes provide a great deal of information to allow for the reinterpretation of many important Genesis stories, in ways that are not usually considered even plausible anymore, or in ways that may have been suppressed. The author spent decades researching a vast amount of complementary literary texts - ancient to modern - to allow us a better way to look at our world, and understand what we really may have been missing, all these years. The powers and principalities originally supporting these "mystery" systems of Babylon have worked hard to disallow the populous from understanding the real truths of the Bible. There are those who wanted, and still want, to destroy this connection for one fundamental reason: it could help undermine - even expose - the "thought machine" had developed, and built upon, over time Why? Because they thrive through a continued misinterpretation of these early Genesis accounts. These volumes are not your typical look at Biblical prophecy, with attempts to interpret the future via the Book of Revelation. No. There is so much more needed to understand it all - namely, understanding early Genesis, as well. The modern interpretations of early Genesis, however, often leaves the typical seeker scratching their head. These volumes enlighten with answers to many common questions: What were the real origins of so many of the ancient pagan gods we now have? How about ancestor worship? Where did the ancient Sun God come from? What really happened in the Garden of Eden? How exactly did all of those involved get punished, and why? And, what relevance does it all have for us, today? What was really behind Cain's motives to kill Abel? And, what happened to him, after the murder? What was the "mark of Cain?" What were some of the more obscured factors that brought on Noah's Flood? Was it a world-wide flood? Who was Naamah, and why did she turn her back on God? Were there only eight people aboard Noah's ark? What did Ham really to do Noah, when Noah became drunk, and why did Noah curse Canaan? Who was Nimrod, and how did he become so evil? What about Cush, and why did the ancients call him "Chaos?" How was Nimrod's mother, Semiramis, able to convince so many people that her child was the original "Christ-child" - 2000 years before Jesus was even born? Knowing all of this helps to expose the darkened underbelly of Mystery Babylon, and how it continually brings people to these same depravities that were introduced, so long ago. This volume is chock-full of relevant information, covering all of the above - on a scale rarely seen, today. The answers are out there

How has paganism corrupted true Christianity? Who were the Lost 10 Tribes of Israel, and how did they become lost? Where did they go, and who might they be, today? Why have there been so many attempts to hide their present-day existence? What ideologies are out there, attempting to destroy the true church of God, and who are the ones facilitating such efforts? What's the psychology behind a lot of their sacrilegious motivations? What could "fornication" and "coveting" really mean, what's so important about them both, in today's day and age, and why have most religious authorities twisted their meanings? How does the enemy really work, in present-day society, to bring down followers of God? What is the true meaning of Antichrist, and what will help facilitate his rise to power?

After the murder, he didn't just wonder about aimlessly, as God wanted him to. He went on to become a great leader of many - leading them down some very, very dark ways. Knowing this helps to expose the darkened underbelly of Mystery Babylon, and how it continually brings people to these same depravities that Cain helped to introduce, so long ago.We now have a great deal of ammunition to decipher why the Epistle of Jude reluctantly felt a need to exclaim to the whole world: "Woe unto them for they have gone in the way of Cain..."

"And upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth." - Revelation 17:5 From Genesis to Revelation, the name Babylon seems to come into play, again and again, throughout the Holy Scriptures. In these volumes, we'll begin to discover just what Mystery Babylon was, how it survived, and into what various thought-forms it had morphed into throughout the centuries. Over the ages, these Babylonian systems were able to flourish, manipulating a lot of what we see and hear... even today. It's all about bringing us away from God and towards the evil one. There, indeed, may be a "parallel of existences" here: the times around Noah's Flood and the times of today. Jesus, after all, was the one who said: "As the days of Noe (Noah) were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be" (Mat. 24:37). Could one side of this parallel have taken place in the early days of Genesis? Could the other side be the times we are facing now? Can we look to Genesis as an indicator of what might comprise the "end times" as we know it? Once we begin to see the parallels, we'll also begin to discover how Mystery Babylon is the "thought-machine" responsible for bringing it all back to us, on so many levels. These volumes provide a great deal of information to allow for the reinterpretation of many important Genesis stories, in ways that are not usually considered plausible anymore, or ways that may have been subsequently suppressed. The author spent decades researching a vast amount of complementary literary texts - ancient to modern - which allows us a better way to look at our world, and understand the things we really may have been missing all these years. The powers and principalities supporting those "mystery" systems of Babylon have worked very hard to stop the populous from understanding the real truths of the Bible. Why? Because they thrive on deceptions, and misinterpretations of these early Genesis accounts. These volumes are not a typical look at Biblical prophecy, attempting to interpret the future by the Book of Revelation. No. There is much more needed to help us understand what the future might hold - namely, knowing what went on in early Genesis. These volumes will enlighten our senses with captivating answers to many common questions, with this third volume focusing on: Could the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse be interpreted in yet another way? Why has paganism become such a formidable force, seemingly contrary to all things Christian and Godly? Why have a number of Christian factions become so corrupt over time, and what was really behind a lot of this change? Who were the Hebrews of old? What happened to the Biblical giants after the Flood, and where did a good number of them go? Could the lost continent of Atlantis have had any connection to these early Biblical stories, and the characters contained therein? How were those contrary ways of paganism able to spread throughout the ancient world so consistently, giving us similarities between so many different ancient civilizations? What were the real (and totally obscured) stories behind the final years of Cush, Ham, Noah and even Canaan, and how did these early accounts shape the post-Flood world as we know it? Was the Egyptian god Osiris a character from the Bible; what about Hercules? How about the battle for the soul of Rome, and what happened when the Roman Empire had to face Christianity head-on? How was the foundation of those ancient Jews infiltrated, as well as compromised, by the sons of Esau? Where did a whole number of them go after the time of Jesus? What did the Knights Templar and Freemasons have to do with this age-old fight between God and the forces of paganism, and how did a lot of these conflicts pan out over time?

Domestic Interests, Democracy, and Foreign Policy Change

When new leaders come to office, there is often speculation about whether they will take their countries' foreign policies in different directions or stick to their predecessors' policies. We argue that when new leaders come to power who represent different societal interests and preferences than their predecessors, leaders may pursue new foreign policies. At the same time, in democracies, leadership selection processes and policymaking rules blunt leaders' incentives and opportunities for change. Democracies thus tend to pursue more consistent foreign policies than nondemocracies even when new leaders with different supporting coalitions assume office. Statistical analyses of three distinct foreign policy areas – military alliances, UNGA voting, and economic sanctions – provide support for our argument. In a fourth area – trade – we find that both democracies and nondemocracies are more likely to experience foreign policy change when a new leader with a different supporting coalition comes to power. We thus conclude that foreign policy responds to domestic political interests, and that, even as the interests supporting leaders change, democracies' foreign policies are no less stable than those of nondemocracies and often exhibit greater consistency.
