Presidential Commission on Immigration and Refugees had recommended a national
identification card in an attempt to keep illegal aliens in check. The U.S. News and World
Report, in their September 15, 1980 issue, ran an article called “A National Identity Card?” It
reported that the Federal Government was planning an identification card that would prevent
anyone without one from working or transacting any sort of business. This computerized system
would keep track of every citizen, According to a 1994 proposal by the Congressional
Commission on Immigration Reform, all American citizens and legal immigrants would be given
a national identification card. The project was later shelved, but elsewhere the move is on. In
1995, the European Union was to begin issuing identification cards to all the citizens of western
Europe.
In California, driver’s licenses were to be issued that would contain a microchip with
personal information, motor vehicle records, criminal records, a photograph, and fingerprints.
The Department of Defense at the Pentagon issued the MARC (Multi-Technology Automatic
Reader) card to their soldiers. It contained a bar code, a magnetic strip, a digitized photograph,
and an integrated circuit computer chip. An internal Pentagon memo stated that the card would
encode all of a soldier’s records. This 6.6 megabyte Laser Card from Drexler Technology
Corporation can store nearly 2,000 pages of information, which is more than enough for
identification numbers, biographical information, school records, photographs, signature, voice
print, fingerprints, medical and health care records, credit and banking information, job
information and activities. It is believed that this card will be the prototype for any national
identification card that will be issued to U.S. citizens.
With all of this computerization going on, it’s obvious that there needs to be a data base to
store it all this information so that it can be accessed and used.
Starting back in 1973 it was being reported (most notably in the August, 1976 issue of
Christian Life magazine) that three floors of the thirteen-floor headquarters of the European
Common Market in Brussels, Belgium was occupied by a massive computer. Dr. Hanrick
Eldeman, Chief Analyst for the Common Market, said in a 1974 meeting of Common Market
leaders during the unveiling of the huge, self-programming computer known as ‘The Beast,’ that
a computerized revitalization project is being prepared to “straighten out world chaos,” and that
the computer has the potential of “numbering every human on earth.” In 1977 (according to a
1990 Moody magazine article), this same Dr. Eldeman is reported to have said that he was
preparing to assign a number to everyone in the world. By using three entries of six digits each,
he said it would be possible for everyone in the world to be given a distinctive number.
As it turns out, the information was actually taken from the novel Beyond a Pale Horse by
Joe Musser, who later adapted it as a screenplay for a David Wilkerson film called The Rapture.
It is believed that the confusion between fact and fiction came because there were mock
newspapers produced to promote the movie which contained things having to do with the end
times, and the ‘Beast’ computer was part of it.
And then came the report that the ‘Beast’ computer had taken a backseat to the computer in
the Jean Monnet Building (rue Alcide de Gasperi) in Luxembourg, which has been called the
largest in the world. Paul Peterson wrote in his book Sinister World Computerization: “I saw the
center in Luxembourg that can compute facts and figures on everyone in the world.”
I suspect that this is also a rumor since I have not been able to find out anything about this
book, nor can I connect this author with this type of research. You can see why the association
was made when you look at some of the occupants of this building: Commission of European
Communities (the European Union’s executive arm), European Bank of Investments, European
