Mexico, Chile, Argentina march for Gaza



Mexico City protesters march for Gaza, urge end to diplomatic and economic ties with Israel
(Al Jazeera English) Aug. 17, 2025: Jewish Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum is not on board with demonstrators and prefers to stay aligned with genocidal, Jewish Zionist Israel.


Student organizations and workers groups in Mexico have been holding a march in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, calling for an end to Israel's genocidal and systematic industrial-scale extermination in the name of a biblical war (remembering Amalek) and for the Mexican government to cut ties with abhorrent Israel. Al Jazeera’s Julia Galiano reports from Mexico City.

Aztec's Tenochtitlan (Mexico) turns 700


They Had Names
New mind-blowing discoveries about ancient America
: Where are the ancient ruins of North America? In Europe, they’re everywhere—henges, castles, cathedrals, medieval cities. But in the USA, the historical attractions are all post-European arrivals. This video shows Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson uncovering some surprising new discoveries about the ancient civilizations here in the United States just north of Mesoamerica. See They Had Names for details.

Discover the three pillars of Aztec genius in Tenochtitlán

Internal empires flourished before Spain entered
(LatinoAméricaAyer) Auto dubbed. How did the Aztecs (early Mexicans) build a metropolis for 200,000 people on a hostile lake in what is now Mexico City? The answer isn't luck or magic, but one of history's greatest engineering feats. In this documentary, we uncover the incredible hydraulic technology that enabled the construction of Tenochtitlán (the foundation of Mexico City) and changed the course of civilization in Mesoamerica, which is part of North America though no one likes to say so).

Matrilineal Native tribes?
Discover the three pillars of their genius:
  1. Chinampas: The artificial islands that created land out of thin air and fueled an empire.
  2. Aqueducts: The sophisticated double-pipe system that brought pure water to the city.
  3. Dikes: The colossal barriers that tamed flooding and controlled the lake's chemistry.
Genocide of Native Americans in North America continues

Get ready to change your perspective on the ingenuity of the Aztec Empire built not on luck but engineering [likely enabled by extraterrestrial and interdimensional advanced technology].

'Aztecs' = Mexica of Aztlan/Atlantis


Arrival from Atlantis (Codex Boturini, Aztlán)
Where was Aztlan? It was a faraway island or continent in the middle of the sea. It may have been inside our Hollow Earth (called Agartha in some traditions), with an internal sea described by Brooks Agnew, separated into seven giant caves or caverns with different groupings or tribes of people. And the people came to Mexico by boat long ago with a memory of their origins in that highly developed civilization, which they recreated in a great empire of temples and pyramids, monuments to the ET "gods" (star people) and dragons (
Nāgas, reptilians) and others who shaped them.


Aztec mythology and the origins of humanity | Fate and Fabled
(Storied) July 20, 2022: If the word Nahua (/nah-wah/) sounds unfamiliar, it’s probably because one is used to hearing about them referred to as the “Aztecs.” That is a completely made up name by Anglo researchers.

The history is complicated, but the name Aztecs was popularized by a German explorer in the 1800s to describe the powerful Mesoamerican empire. Nahua culture is richly complex, with stories that reflect and explain the sometimes-confusing duality of nature. Beyond mythology, the Nahua had an interesting political structure, impressive agricultural system, and TWO calendars. Yet, most people these days do not even know them by their real name, the Mexica (source of the name Mexico).

Mexico: Venice of Aztec Mesoamerica



Ancient Civilizations: The advanced Aztec Empire | full history documentary
(Get.factual) April 17, 2024: Mexico City, known in ancient times as Tenochtitlán, is the "Venice" of Mesoamerica with its canals and immense architecture far surpassing anything in Europe at the time.

The Aztecs: within a very short time they created a huge empire, the capital (today's Mexico City) of which as a metropolis, a perfectly organized floating garden city on the Mexican plateau.

At its head were kings who may have sacrificed humans to feed the demands of rapacious Reptilian "gods." This full history documentary tells the true story of the rapid rise and tragic demise of a unique people.

50,000-year-old American pyramids: Cuba

Just as ancient Egyptians built massive pyramids along the Nile, ancient Americans built Cahokia
Latin American wonders hidden in the jungle
Look at a map of the USA. The Gulf of Mexico is shown differently in each. Cuba is massive, as big as Florida, but is often minimized. All maps are politicized, which is odd since we now have low-flying satellites 20 miles up that can photograph and give us a real picture. But all "space photos" are manipulated CGI (computer generated images). They are warped, shrunken, expanded, enhanced, etcetera. There are 50,000-year-old pyramids underwater between the continental U.S. and the island nation. The mainland has Cahokia with its pyramid "mounds" in St. Louis, Missouri. A hop over the Gulf, Mexico has extraordinary pyramids in the Yucatan Peninsula and Veracruz.
Mexico, though called Mesoamerica, is in North America and is full of ancient pyramids

Mexico's underground world Teotihuacan

An artificial island on Lake Texcoco
Tenochtitlan is an ancient city (Nahuatl altepetl or "city-state") on Lake Texcoco before Columbus and the Conquistadores, modern-day Mexico City. The ancient Aztecs and Maya and other empires in the pre-Columbian Americas.

Underground caverns of Chicomoztoc
This is where the Aztecs arrived, but it is not where they originated. According to their lore, they emerged from a Hollow Earth, the real Aztlan, seven massive underground caverns they called Chicomoztoc.

Just as in ancient Vedic, Buddhist, and Indian lore, the Hollow Earth is segregated into seven planes or divisions. It is not one unified civilization but rather multiple cultures or "tribes" or identities.

US volcano erupts, scientists warn of more


Jesus is named 'Son of Zeus' by EC
If the end of the world were coming, and it is not, it would be easy to work oneself up into a frenzy with all the headlines. There's rumbling in Kilauea, Hawaii, smoke and ash in Mexico City, and lightning bolts vitiating other active volcanos around the world in Europe and Asia. You'd think Zeus and Indra would be more careful where they're throwing those bolts. But it does make for spectacular footage in this strange world we've arrived at from elsewhere. We're not from here so it has got to be exciting that we're taking over the place and completely ruining it because not enough of us care to stop the strip miners and capitalists out to exploit it. Think a few more preserves would be in order? If the parrot fish do not mow the lawn and chew up the coral reef like they used to, maybe we should go into overdrive to keep the reefs we have and save them from overfishing and degradation. The cause is not warming seas (though bringing the average temperature down would be nice). Dr. Joel Wallach has found the cause and it is acidity brought about as a byproduct of dams. Water running out to sea used to bring massive amounts of base minerals washed out from the mountains. When this was prevented by damming up the sweet water, the seas became more corrosive to delicate living corals. If science knows that because he published it, one would think something would be done about it like transporting silt and sediments over the dam and into the sea like it used to flow. Eruptions are a great source of minerals, so we can say Gaia is just self-adjusting.

Giant Pyramids of the Ancient Aztec Empire

(Ancient Cities) Aztec civilization reached its height in the early 16th century. Explore the capital of the empire, Tenochtitlán, home to elaborate yet sacred temples atop gigantic, stepped pyramids.

An Indigenous Peoples' History (Dunbar-Ortiz)
Witness the majesty of this advanced culture of warriors that has been unearthed below what is modern-day Mexico City by the preeminent archeologists of our time.

Mesoamerican pyramids, pyramid-shaped temple structures of various kinds, are an important part of ancient Mesoamerican architecture. These structures were usually step-pyramids with temples on top -- more akin to the ziggurats (terraced block pyramids) of Mesopotamia than to the pyramids of Ancient Egypt.

The Mesoamerican region's largest pyramid by volume -- indeed, the largest pyramid in the world by volume -- is the Great Pyramid of Cholula, in the Mexican state of Puebla.

The gods rule our lives, my beauty
The Aztecs, a people with a rich mythology and cultural heritage, dominated Central Mexico in the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries. Their capital was Tenochtitlan on the shore of Lake Texcoco -- the site of modern-day Mexico City.

They were related to the preceding cultures in the basin of Mexico such as the culture of Teotihuacan, whose building style they adopted and adapted. The Maya (Mayans) are a people of Southern Mexico and northern Central America (Guatemala, Belize, western Honduras, and extreme northern El Salvador) with some 3,000 years of history.

Archeological evidence shows the Maya started to build ceremonial architecture approximately 3,000 years ago. The earliest monuments consisted of simple burial mounds, the precursors to the spectacular stepped pyramids from the Terminal Pre-classic period and beyond.

We were lied to by mainstream historians.
These pyramids relied on intricate carved stone in order to create a stair-stepped design. Many of these structures featured a top platform upon which a smaller dedicatory building was constructed, associated with a particular Maya deity.

Maya pyramid-like structures were also erected to serve as a place of interment for powerful rulers. Maya pyramidal structures occur in a great variety of forms and functions, bounded by regional and periodical differences.
