The unholy alliance

and Enki, eventually gave much greater power to their children, who were assigned different parts of the world to rule and develop. Nannar, the eldest son of Enlil, ruled Mesopotamia, Palestine, Jordan, and Syria from the city of Ur, we are told. The crescent moon was his symbol and this was inherited by Islam. Nannar was known as Sin in the Semitic language and it is from this name of a reptilian god that we get Sinai and the Christian term "sinner" or "to sin". The Christian cross was the symbol of U-TU "the shining one" and known to the Semites as Shamash. He was the grandson of Enlil and son of Sin, the tablets tell us. Shamash ruled the Lebanon, then a place of enormous forests, and his capital was Beth-Shamash ("House of Shamash"), which we know better as Baalbek. This is where a fantastic structure can be found to this day with its giant stones weighing more than three jumbo jets. Enlil's younger son was given control of Anatolia, now Turkey. This was Ishkur or "He of the Mountain Land" and he became the god of the Nordic-Aryan Hittites. The Old Testament calls him Adad and the Hadad. R.A. Boulay believes this is also the Hebrew god, Yahweh/Yahveh or Jehovah. The daughter of Sin, known as Inanna or Ishtar (Semitic), was a warrior goddess deity of many lands under different titles. Ishtar's symbol was the lion and also the Pleiades and Venus. Together with Sin (Shamash) and Ishkur (Adad), she became part of another ancient trinity of gods under many different names. Sin was the father, Ishkur the son, and Ishtar the female. From Ishkur and Ishtar, we get the New Age myth of the "Ashtar Command". Many New Agers claim this is a force of extraterrestrial "saviours" who are preparing to take the chosen ones off the planet when the brown stuff hits the spinning propeller. A sort of Jesus with a spaceship. Other front-line figures in this next generation of Anunnaki leaders after the deluge included Marduk, son of Enki, the tablets say. Marduk was the god of Babylon. The ancient texts, tablets, and legends describe how these gods embarked on a battle for power that brought the world to its knees. Some of these conflicts, with humanity used as battle-fodder, are featured in the Old Testament. One defining event described in the tablets involved the Anunnaki "god" known as Sin. The name comes from the Sumerian SW-EN or ZU-EN, as Boulay reveals in Flying Serpents And Dragons, and Sin clearly appears to be the "villain" of the Sumerian story called "The Myth of Zu". In this, Zu (Sin), the "evil dragon", tries to seize control of the Earth and the Anunnaki leadership by stealing "power stones", which the accounts refer to as the ME (pronounced "may"). For some reason these appear to be fundamental to the Anunnaki control and could have been computer chips or programmes, or some type of crystal. There are indications that they shone or emitted light in some way. Scholars translate the ME as tablets of destiny or divine powers, and 1 wonder if these could be related to the "Ark of the Covenant, a device for which divine powers are claimed? The Sumerian accounts say, quoting "Zu" (Sin): "I will take the divine ME, And the decrees of the gods I will direct. I will set my throne and control all the ME. I will direct the totality of the Igigi ["Those Who Observe" or "The Watchers"]."
