  PRESIDENT'S CORNER

   Dear friends,

   "What is a libertarian?"

   "What is libertarianism?"

   As Michael Cloud points out in his "Persuasion Power Points" column
   this issue, these are two of the first questions any libertarian is
   likely to be asked.

   And it's vitally important that you have a good, persuasive answer
   ready.

   Michael has some great suggestions to help you craft such answers.

   He's also suggested a contest -- with prizes to the best answers we
   receive to those questions.

   I think that's a great idea. Details are in his column. Check it out,
   come up with your responses, and send them in.

   We'll run the best ones in an upcoming issue. And in this contest
   we're *all* winners - you'll have better answers if you follow
   Michael's advice, and by sending your answers in you may help
   thousands of fellow libertarians come up with better answers, too.

   * * *

   On October 8, Joseph Farah, editor of http://WorldNetDaily.com, wrote
   an editorial called "Redefining the Political Spectrum."

   Many Liberator Online readers wrote letters to Farah in response,
   pointing out the fallacy of the old "left vs. right" political line
   (which, among other shortcomings, leaves out libertarians entirely) and
   suggesting the World's Smallest Political Quiz as a better model. Some
   of you forwarded your letters to me.

   Quite a few of those letters were printed at WorldNetDaily.com, and
   continue to be printed. Many of them gave the Quiz's URL. In fact,
   we've been receiving several hundred visits to the Quiz site *per day*
   from WorldNetDaily.com readers since those letters started appearing.
   Congratulations to all of you!

   By the way, even letters that don't get printed have an impact.
   Editors read them. And the sheer numbers of letters received on a
   topic play a big part in whether or not more letters on that subject
   are printed - and whether the subject itself receives future coverage.

 Rupert Murdoch's Australian savages Republicans over test ban
 By Gerard Jackson
 No. 139,   25 - 31 October 1999
 Cameron Forbes
 The refusal of the US Senate to ratify the International Comprehensive
Nuclear
 Test Ban Treaty outraged Australian left-wing US-based journalists,
causing
 them to vent their anger on the Republicans, never a difficult task. The
worst
 of the lot, as expected, was The Australian's Washington-based Cameron
Forbes.
 A particularly nasty piece of left-wing work who never seeems to miss a
chance
 to blame the Republicans for whatever is supposed to plague the US.

 Letting himself go, the self-righteous and dishonest Forbes accused the
 Republicans of sending the world into "a mad nuclear arms race," of
creating an
 "apocalyptic vision," of causing India, China, Russia, North Korea and
Pakistan
 to conduct "further weapons test." But what could one expect, argued
Forbes,
 when the likes of Jesse Helmes, a man who "makes teenagers look like
 troglodytes", are nestling in the Senate. (Rupert Murdoch's Australian,
Ban the
 bomb? Over Jesse's [Helmes] dead body, 15/10)

 That those who opposed Clinton's test ban treaty could possibly have any
sound
 or honourable objections was summarily dismissed by Forbes who described
them
 ". . . as people who do not want disarmament. They love the bomb - in the
name
 of US security and superiority." Why it is morally indefensible to defend
US
 security and maintain its military superiority is something that the
socialist
 Forbes chose not to share with his readers. After all, it was this
military
 superiority that kept Soviet barbarism at bay for more than 50 years. Is
that
 why Forbes hates it so?

 In another sickening example of selective quoting Forbes parroted the
left-wing
 Chris Paine, a representative of the NRDC (Natural Resources Defence
Council),
 which Forbes tried to pass off as just "an influential lobby group." This
is
 absolutely false. The NRDC is a hardcore socialist green organisation that
has
 condemned economic growth, synthetic fuels, genetic engineering and
nuclear
 power, etc. It has done everything within its power to sabotage economic
 development. During the Cold War it supported Soviet initiatives,
condemned
 American defence spending and demanded a nuclear freeze by the US - but
not by
 the Soviets.

 It is fanatical and completely unprincipled. It provoked the alar scare,
 claiming that its own experiments with mice proved that the chemical would
 cause cancer in humans. Competent scientists extrapolated the NRDC's tests
to
 humans and found that a person would have to eat 27,000 apples a day for
70
 years to produce the kinds of tumours that massive doses produced in the
NRDC's
 mice! It was later found that using the NRDC's own research, a mouse fed
with
 half the maximum dose - equivalent to a man eating 14,000 apples a day for
70
 years - produced no tumours. A fact that the NRDC did not report. As this
kind
 of behaviour is the equivalent of what passes for journalistic ethics on
 Murdoch's Australian, it's no wonder Forbes didn't notice. So it comes as
no
 surprise that he grossly misled his readers about the nature of this
vicious
 scaremongering outfit whose own founder resigned from it out of disgust
because
 of the direction it had taken. Another fact, like so many others, that the
 fearlessly honest Forbes neglected to mention.

 Having quoted the extreme leftwing Paine, Forbes then quoted Joe Biden, a
 leading left-wing Democratic Senator who described the Republicans
principled
 rejection of Clinton's handiwork "as the US's worst mistake in his 27
years in
 politics". And what do we know of Biden? Nothing good, as one would expect
of
 someone respected by Forbes.

 It was Biden who took to the Senate floor in September 1998 and
ferociously
 argued that allowing America to defend itself against a nuclear missile
attack
 by building an anti-missile system "will destroy the Anti-Ballistic
Missile
 Treaty", completely ignoring the fact that Russia is working on such a
system.
 Moreover, according to this great American patriot, such a defence system
would
 force China and Russia to adopt a nuclear "launch-on-warning" strategy
which
 would bring "nuclear war closer". What Biden and his left-wing
Congressional
 ilk did was resurrect the doctrine of Mutual Assured Destruction. And yet
this
 is exactly what Forbes had the nauseating nerve to accuse Republicans of
doing.
 What a sickening 

[CTRL] Earthquakes, Resonance and Latitude

1999-10-25 Thread earthman

 -Caveat Lector-

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Resonance - Physics. a reinforcing and prolonging [of sound] by reflection
or by vibration of other objects. Electrical. condition of an electrical
circuit adjusted to allow the greatest flow of current at a certain
frequency.

Now that seismologists are acknowledging that earthquake faults are
triggered over vast differences through deep thrust fault lines, some
TimeStar's principles have been blessed by officialdom.  Predictions for
October 18-31 specify the following:  "Earthquake and volcanic eruptions
activity will increase in the eastern hemisphere, particularly in the South
Pacific, with the 260th day of the January 31 lunar eclipse on October 18.
Krakatau may erupt with emergence of new island areas.  Large earthquakes in
Central America and Coco's Tectonic Plate are likely.  Equal and opposite
point for October 18-31 - Bermuda Triangle, Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico,
Central America, Florida."

At mid-point for the window (October 24), a resonance pattern for these
predictions is becoming more pronounced.  I've listed earthquakes in sets
for north and south latitudes below along with an earthquake from the Joshua
Tree series for comparison.  Note that the largest quake was in the New
Ireland Region and was followed by four quakes on neighboring longitudes but
in northern latitudes.  So earthquakes are occurring on the same longitudes
but separated by thousands of miles of latitude.  This is resonance.

With the full moon rising, earthquakes will increase in the coming week so
this is a chance to watch for resonant patterns.

MAGNETIC STORM

Dramatic displays of the Aurora Borealis accompanied the sudden magnetic
storm that began in the early morning October 22.  Residents of central
Washington reported that the Aurora produced a bowed arc of bluish-white
light never before seen by long-time residents.  The usual display looks
like green spot lights flashing with other colors occasionally commingled.

I'm not sure what caused the bluish-white color but it is a definite change
from the usual appearance of the Aurora.  Sporadic periods of magnetic
storms have continued for several days since October 22.

Any theories?

Dear Citizens, Patriots, Veterans, et al:

   Norio Hayakawa [EMAIL PROTECTED] is going to give three identical
lecture seminars in three southern California cities in the coming weeks.
He
is formerly with the Civilian Intelligence Network and presently with the
Citizens' Watchdog Group on Government Oversight.

   He will be informing the public and Patriots about federal government
clandestine black ops at Groom Lake - Area 51 and the recent technological
developments in intelligence gathering, including electrochromatic panels
that make objects disappear like in Arnold Schwarzenegger's "Preditor."  It
is real,  that is why they could do it in the movies too (although they
probably took artistic license and cinematographic liberties for the
effect).

  Norio will relate to the audience about NWO federal military Psy-Ops and
holographic images . . .

(similar to Operation Blue Beam when the gov can make religious believers
believe that their "Messiah" has returned only to be told by their "Messiah"
that they should believe in their government and bow down to them.)

. . . that can make aeronautical vehicles look several times bigger than
they
really are.

  Norio may bring along a surprise guest speaker to inform the audience on
how they can prepare for survival skills for Y2K and the impending New World
Order and how to  detect, avoid, protect from and decontaminate and
medically
treat an attack by and exposure to NBC and government microwave death rays.

NBC = Nuclear, Biological, Chemical warfare and weapons of mass destruction

In my new presentation, as a Christian and a Patriot, I will talk about the
Emerging Technologies allegedly being developed at AREA 51, which I
hypothesize, may be manipulated to bring the world towards a form of Global
Governance.

I will talk about the Electrochromatic Panels allegedly being tested at AREA
51.
I will talk about the latest developments in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
(UAVs..remotely-controlled surveillance and delivery platforms).
I will attempt to, once and for all, prove to the public that AREA 51 and
its operations have not been relocated elsewhere (despite recent unfounded
rumors), but on the contrary, that activities at the base are constant, if
not increasing.

I will attempt to show, through colorful visuals, how these amazing
technologies will be manipulated by global elitists to create Martial Law in
the very near future.

ELECTROCHROMATIC PANELS:

It is allegedly hypothesized that there are quite a number of new
technologies
being researched, developed and tested at various leading-edge defense
contractor facilities, for example, at Groom Lake/AREA 51's highly
compartmentalized, multi-faceted conglomerate complexes.

Besides a new generation of VTOL-based UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles -
remotely-controlled surveillance platforms, some of which may be

[CTRL] Black Death

1999-10-25 Thread earthman

 -Caveat Lector-

This is quite amazing..Well if it were true...??

Peter
From another poster not me ok...

Anyone who has the book God of Eden by William Bramley should dig it out and
read or reread Chapter 18, The Black Death starting on page 179.  This book
was published in 1989, years before the Chemtrails.  There are places in
that chapter that sound like they could have been written today.  Below are
a few quotes, enough to give you an idea of the parallels between the middle
age plagues and whats happening today with the Chemtrails.

The Black Death began in Asia and soon spread to Europe where it killed well
over 25 million people (about one third of Europe's total population) in
less than four years.  Some historians put the casualty figure closer to 35
to 40 million people, or about half of all Europeans

Two types of plague are believed to have caused the Black Death.  The first
is the "bubonic" type, which was the most common.  The bubonic form of
plague is characterized by swellings of the lymph nodes: the swellings are
called "buboes,"  The buboes are accompanied by vomiting, fever and
death This form of plague is not contagious between human
beings;  it requires an active carrier, such as a flea.  For this reason,
many historians believe that flea-infested rodents caused the Bubonic
Plague...

The second form of plague contributing to the Black Death is a highly
contagious type known as "pneumonic" plague.  It is marked by shivering,
rapid breathing and the coughing up of blood...  This second
type of plague is nearly always fatal and transmits best in cold weather and
in poor ventilation.  Some physicians today believe it was this second form,
the "pneumonic" plague, which was responsible for most of the casualties of
the Black Death because of the crowding and poor hygienic conditions then
prevalent in Europe.

We would normally shake our heads at this tragic period of human history and
be thankful that modern medicine has developed cures for these dread
diseases.  However, troubling enigmas about the Black Death still linger.
Many outbreaks occurred in summer during warm weather in uncrowded regions.
Not all outbreaks of bubonic plague were preceded by rodent infestation; in
fact, only a minority of cases seemed to be related to an increase in the
presence of vermin.  The greatest puzzle about the Black Death is how it was
able to strike isolated human populations which had no contact with earlier
infected areas.  The epidemics also tended to end abruptly...

A great many people throughout Europe and other Plague stricken regions of
the world were reporting that outbreaks of the Plague were caused by
foul-smelling "mists".  Those mists frequently appeared after unusually
bright lights in the sky.  The historian quickly discovers that "mists" were
reported far more frequently and in many more locations than were rodent
infestations.  The Plague years were, in fact, a period of heavy UFO
activity.

What, then, were the mysterious mists?  There is another very important way
in which plague germs can be transmitted; through germ weapons.  The US and
the Soviet Union today have stockpiles of biological weapons containing
bubonic plague and other epidemic diseases.  The germs are kept alive in
canisters which spray the diseases into the air on thick, often visible,
artificial mists.  Anyone breathing in the mist will inhale the disease.
There are enough such germ weapons today to wipe out a good portion of
humanity.  Reports of identical disease-inducing mists from the Plague years
strongly suggest that the Black Death was caused by germ warfare.  Let us
take a look at the incredible reports which lead to that conclusion.

The first outbreak of the Plague in Europe followed an unusual series of
events.  Between 1298 and 1314, seven large "comets" were seem over Europe;
one was of "awe-inspiring blackness." .. To the people of
Europe, these sightings were considered omens of the Plague which soon
followed.

It is true that some reported "comets" were probably just that;
comets..  On the other hand it is important to note that almost any
unusual object in the sky was called a "comet." .  This leads us
to wonder how many other ancient "comets" were actually similar rocketlike
objects.  When we are confronted with an old report of a comet, we therefore
do not really know what kind of thing we are dealing with unless there is a
fuller description.  A report of a sudden increase in "comets" or similar
celestial phenomena may, in fact, mean an increase in UFO activity.

The link between unusual aerial phenomena and the Black Death was
established immediately during the first outbreaks of the Plague in Asia.
As one historian tells us:  The first reports (of the plague) came out of
the East.  They were confused, exaggerated, frightening, as reports from
that quarter of the world so often are; descriptions of storms

 Why are police arresting more dope smokers
 than murderers, robbers, thugs, and rapists?

 WASHINGTON, DC -- Police are more eager to arrest
 people for smoking marijuana than for murder, robbery, or
 rape, according to new figures from the FBI -- and that's
 a criminal misuse of law enforcement resources that puts
 innocent Americans at risk, the Libertarian Party charged
 today.

 "This is astonishing: Police apparently would rather
 arrest a person with marijuana in his possession than a
 sadistic killer with blood on his hands," said Steve Dasbach,
 the party's national director. "We have to ask: What are
 these police smoking?"

 According to the new FBI Uniform Crime Report, police
 arrested more people for non-violent marijuana offenses in
 1998 than for murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault
 -- combined.

 In all, 682,885 Americans were arrested last year on
 marijuana-related charges, while only 676,020 people were
 arrested for the crimes of murder, rape, robbery, and
 aggravated assault.

 Of those arrested for marijuana offenses, 88% were
 charged with mere possession.

 "These figures are great news for murderers, rapists,
 and robbers, since police appear to be more interested in
 arresting someone for smoking marijuana than for committing
 a cold-blooded killing, a sadistic rape, or a brazen burglary
 spree," said Dasbach. "This is a clear case of public
 endangerment -- and a tragic waste of criminal justice resources.

 "The fact is, every marijuana arrest means there is
 less police time, less law enforcement money, less court time,
 and fewer jail cells available to arrest, convict, and
 imprison violent criminals," he said. "Does that make any
 sense?"

 According to another new study from the Marijuana
 Policy Project, there are 59,300 people in U.S. prisons and
 jails for marijuana offenses at any given time, and there
 have been nearly 3.5 million marijuana arrests since President
 Bill Clinton took office.

 "The next time you hear about a vicious murder on the
 news, ask yourself: Could the police have prevented this crime
 if they hadn't devoted uncounted millions of dollars and man-
 hours to arresting those 3.5 million people on marijuana
 charges over the past six years?" said Dasbach.

 "How many people are dead, or raped, or had their
 possessions stolen, or were savagely beaten because a local
 cop was booking a marijuana suspect instead of protecting
 innocent Americans from evil criminals? That's the real,
 human cost of these new FBI figures -- and the sad price
 we pay for the government's War on Marijuana."

 The good news in the new FBI Uniform Crime Report
 is that violent crime is down, acknowledged Dasbach --
 falling by 5% last year.

 "The question is: How much faster would crime be
 dropping if police made murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated
 assault their top priority, instead of marijuana?" he asked.
 "In other words, how much safer would we be if police targeted
 dangerous criminals like Jeffrey Dahmer and the Son of Sam --
 instead of harmless victims like Cheech and Chong?"

Anyone with even the most basic book on Egyptian mythology
could have posted sno0wl's information on "real" Egyptian
myth, and this is not to say that I am not personally thankful
that sno0wl has taken a few minutes to do so.

It is hoped that the time spent doing will benefit those for
on the CTRL list who might need a lesson in the superficial.

My personal desire, would be that sno0wl would have
also included the reason for posting this information,
as all of this data does NOT follow the original subject
of the MASONIC meaning behind the DIA anomalies.

 I think the disagreement with you is based on confusing what
the Egyptians believed (amply recorded in both their texts and
drawings and sculptures) and what relatively modern "illuminati"
CLAIM they believed, attempting to subsume Egyptian religion
under the themes found in Indo-European as well as SOME Near
Eastern religions, just in order to make everything "come out right"
as "universal." 

The confusion here, comes from those who desire to
run on and on about Egyptian MYTH, while ignoring
the obvious fact that the DEAD Egyptians who bought
into the basics of the Egyptian godhood are not in
any way responsible for the Masonic symbology
at Denver's New World Airport.

The information on DIA and the Osiris/Heaven and Isis/Earth
connection was not confused, it was pure Masonic Doctrine.

With my own previous post on the Osiris/Heaven and Isis/Earth
connection in mind, DASgoat states that this is what the
"relatively modern illuminati CLAIM they believed."

This specifically implies that this is NOT what the
Masons do in fact acknowledge as Secret Doctrine.

We shall PRETEND that my previous post on Osiris/Earth
and Isis/Heaven was INcorrect, and wait with baited breath
for DASgoat to reveal to us, the actual Masonic Doctrine
on this subject.

We are still waiting, for a qualified answer aimed
at SPECIFICALLY explaining the relevance of all
this Egyptian mythological blather, and what it
means to the subject of Masonic symbology
at DIA.

Now, regarding what may be MASONICALLY
documented by the reasonably well known
authorities/members of Freemasonry, and
the comments regarding Osiris as HEAVEN,
and Isis as EARTH.

POSSIBILITY NUMBER ONE
The "real" and most apparent Egyptian
mythology is in fact correct line of study.

According to DASgoat, the stories of the legendary Osiris,
Nut, Isis, Thoth, etc., have been, "amply recorded in both
their texts and drawings and sculptures."

Since the same stories surrounding these mythological
characters can be found in even the most common of
Egyptian artifacts, are we to believe that the general
population of ancient Egypt had knowledge of the
Secret Doctrine, and inscribed it in public places
and on everyday pottery and jewelry?

This sounds like some REAL big SECRET DOCTRINE.

POSSIBILITY NUMBER TWO
DASgoat's "modern illuminati" CLAIM to believe
that which, may be found by serious researchers
who are dedicated enough to spend the time and
money in finding and documenting facts from
hard to find Masonic/Occultic books at a used
or antiquarian book store

BUT.

.this version of DASgoat's lluminatus don't
ACTUALLY believe any of this either, because
this is ONLY what they "CLAIM" to believe.

If the above were true, it leaves us two options.

OPTION (A) FOR POSSIBILITY NUMBER TWO
The Masons, as example, CLAIM to believe that
Osiris is a symbol of Heaven and that Isis is a
symbol for the Earth.

.BUT, they are REALLY subscribing to the
"Secret Doctrine" that is found on the common
and everyday Egyptian artifacts and texts which
ACTUALLY tell us the the exact opposite.

Wow...these guys are really, really, very, very sneaky.

This means that the Secret Doctrine that the Masons
claim to have knowledge of, was ALSO known by
virtually the entire population of Egypt.

lol

OPTION (B) FOR POSSIBILITY TWO
The Masons don't believe what the everyday Egyptians
understood as common knowledge concerning Osiris
and Isis, NOR do they believe what has been recorded
by countless Masonic authors on this subject.

[CTRL] Exercise may be just as effective as medication for treating majo r depression

1999-10-25 Thread Taylor, John (JH)

 -Caveat Lector-

FOR RELEASE: 24 OCTOBER 1999 AT 16:00 ET US
Duke University Medical Center
http://www.eurekalert.org/releases/dumc-exe102299.html

Duke study: Exercise may be just as effective as medication for treating
major
depression

DURHAM, N.C.--A brisk 30-minute walk or jog around the track three times a
week
may be just as effective in relieving the symptoms of major depression as
the
standard treatment of anti-depressant medications, according to the results
of
a Duke University Medical Center study.

The researchers studied 156 elderly patients diagnosed with major depressive
disorder (MDD) and assigned them to three groups: exercise, medication, or a
combination of medication and exercise. To the surprise of the researchers,
after 16 weeks all three groups showed statistically significant and similar
improvement in measurements of depression.

"One of the conclusions we can draw from this is that exercise may be just
as
effective as medication and may be a better alternative for certain
patients,"
said the lead researcher, Duke psychologist James Blumenthal, who published
the
results of his team's study in the Oct. 25 issue of The Archives of Internal
Medicine. The research is supported by a number of grants from the National
Institutes of Health.

"While we don't know why exercise confers such a benefit, this study shows
that
exercise should be considered as a credible form of treatment for these
patients," Blumenthal said in an interview. "Almost one-third of depressed
patients in general do not respond to medications, and for others, the
medications can cause unwanted side effects. Exercise should be considered a
viable option."

While the researchers studied middle-aged and elderly people, Blumenthal
said
the results probably hold true for the general population. "Because the
elderly
tend to have additional medical problems that might make regular exercise
difficult, this is the most difficult group to test the exercise
hypothesis."

Symptoms of MDD, as defined by the psychiatric reference book Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual IV (DSM-IV), include depressed mood or loss of interest
or
pleasure combined with at least four of the following: sleep disturbances,
weight loss, changes in appetite, psychomotor agitation, feelings of
worthlessness or excessive guilt, impaired cognition or concentration and
recurrent thoughts of death.

Based on the DSM-IV definition of depression, 60.4 percent of the patients
who
only exercised were no longer depressed after 16 weeks, compared with 65.5
percent for the medication group and 68.8 percent of the combination group.
When a second commonly used measure of depression, the Hamilton Rating Scale
for Depression, was added, 47.2 percent of exercise group were no longer
considered depressed, compared to 56 percent of medication group and 47
percent
of combination.

In both cases, according to Blumenthal, the differences between the groups
were
not statistically significant.

Researchers did note that patients who took the anti-depressants saw their
symptoms relieved sooner, but by 16 weeks the group differences had
disappeared. Blumenthal said it was possible that the structured and
supportive
atmosphere of the exercise program also could have an effect in improving
the
symptoms of the exercise group, but he doesn't attribute the majority of the
benefit to social support. Studies have shown that improved levels of
physical
fitness are related to improved symptoms of depression, he said.
Nevertheless,
early next year, Blumenthal plans to begin a new study to gauge the effect
of
exercising in a less-supportive atmosphere, and he also plans to include a
placebo group. Blumenthal suggested that exercise may be beneficial because
patients are actually taking an active role in trying to get better.

"Simply taking a pill is very passive," he said. "Patients who exercised may
have felt a greater sense of mastery over their condition and gained a
greater
sense of accomplishment. They felt more self-confident and had better
self-esteem because they were able to do it themselves, and attributed their
improvement to their ability to exercise.

"These findings could change the way some depressed patients are treated,
especially those who are not interested in taking anti-depressants,"
Blumenthal
said. "While these medications have been proven to be effective, many people
want to avoid the side effects or are looking for a more ?natural' way of
feeling better."

The anti-depressant used in the study was sertraline (trade name Zoloft),
which
is a member of a class of commonly used anti-depressants known as selective
serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

Blumenthal cautions that the study did not include patients who were acutely
suicidal or had what is termed psychotic depression. Also, because patients
were recruited by advertisements, these patients were motivated to get
better
and interested in exercise.

NOW chapter
supports Republicans
Virginia group breaks
with national organization




By Charles Smith
© 1999 WorldNetDaily.com

The National Organization For Women was formed during the turmoil of the
'60s. For over 30 years NOW has championed women's rights, legalized
abortion, and equal pay. Since its formation, NOW has been a hard-core
bastion of support for liberal Democrats.
On Oct. 13, 1999, the solid wall of support cracked wide open. Marie-Jose
Ragab, president of the NOW Dulles Chapter, issued a scathing statement
against the Clinton administration and the Democratic Party of Virginia for
supporting him. Ragab's NOW chapter has called for a "Republican majority"
in Virginia elections.

"It is indeed a historic event," stated Virginia Republican party spokesman
Tim Murtaugh. "It is a surprising and welcomed endorsement. This the first
time in 20 years that a Virginia NOW chapter has endorsed Republican
candidates. They are not a Republican group."

"I'd like to point out the extraordinary courage it took to shake the
Democrat domination of NOW," continued Murtaugh. "This is the first group of
women to break away from the dishonest Democrat campaign of scare tactics
and catering to the fears of mothers. Clearly the Virginia Democrats refusal
to condemn Bill Clinton shows that they are siding against the legal rights
of all women."

Democrats, however, were quick to respond to the endorsement by the northern
Virginia based NOW chapter with counter-charges of their own.

"I believe the Dulles Chapter is a radical NOW chapter," stated Virginia
Democrat party spokesman Craig Beiber. "Clearly, they are a renegade group.
This is no big surprise. The group is just showing their Republican
tendencies."

"I think they need to explain themselves," stated Beiber. "I'd like to see
them explain their support for Republican candidates such as Virginia
candidate Jim Jones who was convicted of sexual harassment charges."

According to the Roanoke Times, Jones, the current Republican candidate for
the Virginia 39th district State Senate, was convicted in 1993 on
misdemeanor assault and battery charges for unlawfully touching a
21-year-old woman who worked for him. The GOP was unaware of the conviction
against Jones and has questioned him about the charges.

"I do not see Republicans rushing to support Mr. Jones as the Democrats
rushed to aid Mr. Clinton," stated Ragab during an exclusive WorldNetDaily
interview.

"I gladly accept the title of renegade when the cause is right," said Ragab.
"A lot of corruption has been brought into the Women's movement by the
Democrats. When they brought the Clintons into the White House I knew right
there that the organization was not going in the right direction."

Ragab noted that despite the recent historic announcement, there have not
been many calls from the press.

"No mainstream media will air an interview," stated Ragab. "They consider us
to be untouchable because of the Clintons. Clinton fatigue is not only
affecting America but it is affecting the world. Clinton is nearing a point
of collapse. They are getting desperate with more and more naked
propaganda."

"The Democrat party did something similar to what they do in the third
world, which is to put the wife in charge of all women," explained Ragab.
"The moment Mrs. Clinton was in the White House she assumed control of all
women's issues and silenced the other voices. This is a way to control all
women. This is a very bad thing to do."

"For example, we have not heard any criticism of the Clinton administration
in the foreign policy field," stated Ragab who, as a representative of NOW,
investigated international trafficking of women. "Yet, the Clinton
administration and the World Bank helped Thailand organize and nationalize
their prostitution business."

"There are many countries around the world who are terrified about getting a
call from the White House, announcing a visit. They have to empty schools so
she can be applauded. They have to collect women workers to applaud her
husband. It is an enormous expense and amount of pressure. The cost is
horrendous."

"There is something perverse about it," said Ragab. "For the wife of a
President to come out and say, 'I am in charge from now on for all the women
and children of this country and all the women and children of the world' is
wrong. It stifles any discussion of the husband's policy. It is doomed to
failure. This clashes with the position of a first lady in a country with
rights."

"Bill Clinton was impeached and fined for perjury. Republicans saved Title
Seven and upheld the law. Democrats ridiculed Paula Jones

The Gruesome Consequences Of a Political Idea

By JACOB HEILBRUNN

The history of communism has not just been about terror, torture,
deportations and massacres. It has also been about the illusions of
Western intellectuals. Whether it is Günter Grass receiving the Nobel
Prize partly for his novelistic effusions about the coziness of East
Germany or revisionist historians playing down Stalin's
culpability for the great purges, communism has enjoyed, and continues
to enjoy, a reputation as an ideology that supposedly pursued lofty
humanitarian ends, even if it went astray at times. Indeed, the big
intellectual no-no has been to liken it to the other great totalitarian
movement of the 20th century -- Nazism.

So when "The Black Book of Communism" appeared in Europe in 1997
detailing communism's crimes, it created a furor. Scrupulously
documented and soberly written by several historians, it is a masterful
work. It is, in fact, a reckoning. With this translation by Jonathan
Murphy and Mark Kramer, English-language readers may now see for
themselves what all the commotion was about.

In his introduction, Stéphane Courtois, himself a former communist,
breaks with the postwar taboo on comparing the Gulag with the Holocaust.
He notes that the communist body count of more than 100 million exceeds
that of the Nazis. He compares the "class genocide" of communism with
the "race genocide" of Nazism and states that both were "crimes against
humanity."

So controversial was this comparison that two of Mr. Courtois's
editor-collaborators -- Nicolas Werth and Jean-Louis Margolin -- later
distanced themselves from what he wrote. And predictably, the French
left lashed itself into a frenzy, denouncing the book's contributors for
traducing the noble communist fight against fascism.

In Germany, by contrast, Mr. Courtois's views met with a somewhat less
chilly reception. A decade before a bitter historians' dispute had
erupted when leftist intellectuals such as Jürgen Habermas accused
conservative historians of attempting to whitewash the Nazi past by
playing up communist atrocities, which some, not all, were indeed trying
to do. But this didn't justify the left's refusal to confront the
horrors of communism.
Eventually, the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the revelation of
communist abuses in East Germany helped to overturn old dogmas, and "The
Black Book" prompted many Germans to take another look at the
relationship between communism and Nazism.

That relationship may never be fully understood. But the Russian Red
Terror, in its emphasis on the elimination of entire classes of peoples,
in its description of opponents as "vermin" to be exterminated, does
seem like a precursor of the German concentration camps. Moreover,
Nazism profited greatly not only from
Lenin's and Stalin's Gulag system -- Rudolf Hoess, commandant of
Auschwitz, solicited reports about the operations of Soviet camps -- but
also from Bolshevism itself, which served as both a whipping boy and, at
times, a political idea that could be collaborated with. The two
ideologies validated each other.

After World War II, the prestige of the Soviet Union was at its height.
The country had fought on the side of the democracies, U.S. war
propaganda had painted pipe-smoking "Uncle Joe Stalin" as a friendly
fellow. In Europe, communists made a comeback in France, Italy and
Germany with the flowering of the myth that
communists were merely heroic anti-fascist freedom fighters. Thus the
gruesome Soviet record was suppressed.

"That the Soviet Union had paid the heaviest human toll for its victory
over Nazism," writes Mr. Werth, "served to mask the character of the
Stalinist dictatorship." In fact, "the Soviet prisons had never held as
many prisoners as they did in the year of victory: a grand total of
nearly 5.5 million people."

Mr. Werth astutely notes that the Gulag was filled with "criminals"
because almost any action, however innocuous, could be branded as
illegal dissent. The Gulag,you might say, was the distilled essence of
the Soviet Union. Once Khrushchev denounced Stalin's crimes, the Soviet
Union began to unravel, however slowly,
having lost its reason for being.

After the halo wore off the Soviet Union, China emerged as a new beacon
for credulous Westerners. Mr. Margolin writes that "one myth was common
in the West:the idea that China was far from being a model democracy,
but that at least Mao had managed to give a bowl of rice to every
Chinese person." In fact, nothing was
further than the truth. Mao, like Stalin, deliberately engineered a
famine that killed untold millions.

Today the hermit kingdom of North Korea is, by all accounts, continuing
this tradition by systematically starving much of its population. Pierre
Rigoulot estimates in "The Black Book" that the regime has already
killed 500,000 people through malnutrition. Over the past 50 years, he
concludes, North Korea's

THE SCOOP for October 25, 1999
___

The NATO Bombing Of The Chinese Embassy
Deliberate?  Possibly.  A News Blackout?  Definitely.
© 1999 Bob Harris
http://www.bobharris.com
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]


On May 7, 1999, NATO bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade, killing three
and injuring twenty.

The bombing caused widespread anger at the U.S. and Britain, whose own
embassies in Beijing became the scene for days of protest.  Relations
between China and NATO were gravely impacted.  Since embassies are
considered national territory, the bombing of the Chinese embassy, if
intentional, would be an unambiguous act of war.

NATO claims that the bombing was the result of human error.  Three cruise
missiles, we are told, slammed into the embassy simply because NATO was
using an outdated map.

China's leadership -- along with much of the world -- still doesn't buy
it.  But that's NATO's story, and they're sticking to it.

But is it likely that NATO intelligence didn't know where the Chinese
embassy was?

No.  As a matter of standard operating procedure, NSA, CIA, MI6, and
possibly the blues band NRBQ would have been monitoring communications
from the Chinese embassy since it was first placed at the site in 1996.

Is there a more plausible explanation?

Yes.

The Observer, London's liberal newsweekly, reported last Sunday that
NATO's bombing of the Chinese embassy was entirely deliberate.  (See
http://www.newsunlimited.co.uk/Kosovo/Story/0,2763,92806,00.html.  I first
heard about it from the fine folks at Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting,
http://www.fair.org.)

The Observer quoted three widely-separated sources within NATO as stating
that the Chinese embassy was bombed because it was transmitting Yugoslav
military communications.

Why would the Chinese assist Milosevic?  The Observer suggests that they
might have wanted access to information on stealth technology which
Belgrade had gleaned from the downing of an F-117 bomber at the outset of
the war.

Moreover, the story also notes that the Chinese military attaché openly
stated shortly before the attack that the embassy was monitoring incoming
NATO cruise missiles in order to develop counter-measures.

The attack on the Chinese embassy would therefore have had a clear
military purpose.

Of course, since the NATO sources are as yet unnamed, the Observer story
should be approached with caution.

But so should NATO's denials.

Remember, NATO spokesfolks committed numerous deceptions and distortions
regarding the Kosovo war, regarding items as fundamental as the success of
the bombing strategy, the necessity, number, and causes of civilian
casualties, and even the terms of pre-war negotiation and the final peace
agreement.

And if the bombing of the Chinese embassy was indeed intentional, NATO has
tremendous incentive to continue its truth modification program.  So does
China.

If the Observer story is true, then both China and NATO engaged in direct
violations of international law amounting to acts of war.  Moreover, the
story came out precisely as Jiang Zemin began a two-week tour of Western
capitals to discuss both a) NATO's military posture toward Beijing and b)
China's bid to enter the World Trade Organization.

An independent press, however, supposedly serves the interests of the
public over the state, pursuing truth over expedient nonsense.  We might
hope for at least some serious attempts to follow up on the Observer's
report.

However, according to their online archives, here's what America's leading
dailies have had to say about the news that NATO sources now state that
the bombing of the Chinese embassy was intentional, for reasons which
China's military attaché has already partially confirmed:

The New York Times?  Nothing.
The Los Angeles Times?  Nothing.
The Chicago Tribune?  Nothing.

The Washington Post carried exactly 93 words on page A14 -- headlined
"NATO Denies Story on Embassy Bombing," thereby providing no hint of what
the story actually was -- buried beneath news of an execution in Yemen and
projected election returns in Botswana.

So did NATO bombed the Chinese embassy?  We still don't know for sure.

And if we are to depend on America's commercial news media to find out for
us, there's a good chance we never will.

Today's Lesson from On Truth and Lie in an Extra Moral Sense


by Friedrich Nietzsche



The intellect, as a means for the preservation of the individual, unfolds its
chief powers in simulation; for this is the means by which the weaker, less
robust individuals preserve themselves [...]: here deception, flattery, lying
and cheating, talking behind the back, [...] acting a role before others and
before oneself [...] is so much the rule [...] that almost nothing is more
incomprehensible than how an honest and pure urge for truth could make its
appearance among men [...]
What, indeed does man know of himself! [...] Does not nature keep much the
most from him, even about his body, to spellbind and confine him in a proud,
deceptive consciousness, far from the coils of the intestines, the quick
current of the blood stream, and the involved tremors of the fibers? She
threw away the key; and woe to the calamitous curiosity which might peer just
once through a crack in the chamber of consciousness and look down, and sense
that man rests upon the merciless, the greedy, the insatiable, the murderous,
in the indifference of his ignorance--hanging in dreams, as it were upon the
back of a tiger. In view of this, whence in all the world comes the urge for
truth? [...]
What, then, is truth? A mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and
anthropomorphisms--in short, a sum of human relations, which have been
enhanced, transposed, and embellished poetically and rhetorically, and which
after long use seem firm, canonical, and obligatory to a people: truths are
illusions about which one has forgotten that this is what they are; metaphors
which are worn out and without sensuous power; coins which have lost their
pictures and now matter only as metal and no longer as coins.
We still do not know where the urge for truth comes from; for as yet we have
heard only of the obligation imposed by society that it should exist: to be
truthful means using the customary metaphors--in moral terms: the obligation
to lie according to a fixed convention, to be herd-like in a style obligatory
for all [...]

Models' Eggs for Sale Over the Internet


Designer DNA here.

CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts - To the horror and disgust of mainstream
infertility groups, a fashion photographer has begun offering up models as
egg donors to the highest bidders, auctioning their ova via the Internet to
would-be parents willing to pay up to $150,000 in hopes of having a beautiful
child.
''It screams of unethical behavior,'' Sean Tipton, spokesman for the American
Society of Reproductive Medicine, said of the Web site, www.ronsangels.com,
which was already up on the Web on Friday and was to be officially premiered
Monday.
Infertility specialists deplored the Web site as exactly the kind of
''commodification'' of human egg donation that they hoped to avoid. Just this
spring, signs of movement in that direction came when a couple advertised
that they would pay $50,000 for an egg from a tall, athletic, top college
student with high Scholastic Assessment Test scores.
The photographer, Ron Harris, justifies the egg auction as a natural
outgrowth of the urge humans have to mate with genetically superior people
and produce babies with evolutionary advantages. Particularly, he says, in a
society like that of America where a ''celebrity culture'' worships beauty.
''If you could increase the chance of reproducing beautiful children, and
thus giving them an advantage in society, would you?'' he asks on the site.
On Friday, he described the objections to egg auctions as politically
correct.
Since not all women are the same, he argued, what they are paid for their
eggs ''should be a price that floats based on perceived value.''
Mr. Harris's melding of Darwin-based eugenics, Playboy-style sensibilities
and eBay-type commerce struck some infertility specialists as the most
worrying sign yet of where the partly unregulated field of ''assisted
reproduction'' may be going.
''It's frightening and horrible,'' said Shelley Smith, director of the Egg
Donor Program, a center in Los Angeles, ''and the worst part for me is to
think there might be something worse still beyond our imagination. It seems
to escalate, and ever since the Internet, it seems to snowball more rapidly,
this depersonalization of people and selling of eggs.''
She and others said that as far as they knew, Mr. Harris's site was legal.
Federal law expressly forbids trafficking in human organs but not in sperm
and eggs, they said. Research by Mr. Harris's lawyers produced the same
conclusion.
The site has already received a serious bid of $42,000 from a couple who
found it through a search engine, said Mr. Harris, 66. The models receive the
full bid price, and Rons Angels takes a commission of an additional 20
percent.
The bid price includes no medical costs, the site specifies, also saying that

October 25, 1999

INTERVIEW
TWA 800 Shootdown
The government contends that the giant jet was destroyed by a mysteriously
exploding fuel tank — but an ex-Navy crash investigator convincingly argues
otherwise.
Cmdr. William S. Donaldson III, USN (Ret.) Interviewed by John F. McManus
In April 1997, Chairman James E. Hall of the National Transportation Safety
Board (NTSB) proposed in the Wall Street Journal that TWA Flight 800 had
exploded in mid-air nine months earlier because of some undiscovered
mechanical failure. The article was entitled "It Wasn’t a Missile." Because
he found the explanation given by Mr. Hall preposterous, Commander William S.
Donaldson III, USN (Ret.) launched his own investigation. He did so in
cooperation with the Associated Retired Aviation Professionals.
 Q. Commander Donaldson, you have been investigating the downing of TWA
Flight 800 for over two years. What are your credentials for such a task?
A. I am a retired U.S. Navy pilot with more than 24 years of experience in
virtually all phases of naval aviation. Pertinent portions of my expertise
include graduation from the Navy’s Postgraduate Aviation Safety School in
Monterey, California, where I completed the long course in aviation safety
and crash investigation. I have served as a safety officer and crash
investigator at both the Squadron and Air Wing levels, and was qualified as a
maintenance check pilot in six models of prop and jet aircraft. Also, I am a
qualified air traffic controller and served for two years as a Carrier
Controlled Approach Officer.
 Q. What have you concluded about the downing of TWA Flight 800 on July 17,
1996 soon after it left JFK?
A. First of all, TWA 800 was the 27th transportation aircraft worldwide to be
brought down by a man-portable anti-aircraft missile. What happened to this
Boeing 747 was far from unique when you consider that numerous other planes
have suffered a similar fate. Just last year, a Boeing 727 was downed in
Africa, the 28th victim of this type of attack. Just this month [September] a
Lufthansa cargo jet was fired on and missed at low altitude near the Karachi
airport overseas.
I believe that a shoulder-launched missile was fired from a small boat
positioned less than three nautical miles to the southeast of the aircraft.
The missile punched through the underside of the aircraft at a point where
the left wing meets the fuselage. Its warhead, a type that explodes
immediately after impact, penetrated approximately three additional feet into
the six-foot-deep tank of fuel in that wing. The resulting explosion caused a
massive over-pressurization of all three left-wing tanks blowing open the top
skin of the wing. The explosion also impacted the empty center fuel tank,
resulting in a secondary fuel/air explosion under and in that center tank.
All of this led to catastrophic failures of the nose, tail, and left wing.
The plane’s pieces, plus the passengers and crew, then plunged into the sea
in about 30 seconds.
Q. What have the government agencies investigating this incident concluded?
A. The FBI, NTSB, CIA, and even the White House joined in claiming that a
mysterious explosion in the center fuel tank caused the tragedy. Never in my
wildest dreams did I ever expect to find such rampant incompetence of several
agencies or, even worse, the overt politicization of these agencies at the
very top.
 Q. What are your specific criticisms of the FBI’s handling of this matter?
A. The FBI investigation was nothing but a token effort. Mr. James Kallstrom
— the number two official of the FBI — headed the agency’s investigation and
stated during his final press conference in November 1997 that the Bureau had
turned over every rock ten times. The literal truth is that they didn’t even
find some of the eyewitnesses who saw the streak of light rising toward the
airplane. We found 140 eyewitnesses, and the FBI has never even interviewed
20 of them. Some of these persons were critically important eyewitnesses,
people who were in boats and were first on the scene and who claim to have
seen other suspicious boats in the area.
The FBI eventually contracted with the Navy’s China Lake [California] Naval
Air Weapons facility to study recovered debris. When the China Lake experts
recommended in their report that missiles be fired into 747 fuel tanks in
order to replicate the damage found on TWA 800, the FBI not only ignored this
report but immediately shut down its investigation.
Q. What did the Central Intelligence Agency do to promote the government’s
fuel-tank-explosion theory?
A. The CIA produced an animated video, which was broadcast over national
television in November 1997. It purported to demonstrate that the plane was
destroyed as a result of an explosion occurring

A 'sneak attack' on property rights?

Clinton holds money bills 'hostage' to land grab

By Sarah Foster
© 1999 WorldNetDaily.com

The White House is conducting a behind-the-scenes operation to
force congressional approval of President Clinton's demand for a
$1 billion per year land-acquisition trust fund, WorldNetDaily
has learned.

With support from allies on Capitol Hill, representatives from
the administration over the past few days have been quietly
visiting all Democratic and select Republican members of Congress
in an all-out effort to get Clinton's Lands Legacy 2000 inserted
in a new Omnibus Appropriations bill, according to Chuck Cushman,
executive director of the American Land Rights Alliance in
Battleground, Wash.

Cushman, who has spearheaded a grass-roots campaign against the
Clinton's Lands Legacy Initiative and several related bills,
decries the White House move as a "sneak attack."

"Clinton wants his Lands Legacy Initiative, which would create an
off-budget, dedicated billion dollar a year trust fund for land
acquisition," Cushman explained in a phone interview. "That way
the federal land agencies won't have to go and ask Congress for
money every year. There will be no congressional oversight, so
agencies like the Forest Service won't have to justify how they
spend the money -- it will just come to them.

"What a way to run a government," he added sardonically.

Cushman fears that this spells real danger to property rights,
especially in farming and other rural areas.

"This will make millions of dollars available on a consistent
basis, dollars that the federal bureaucracy can depend on to go
and buy up rural America," he said. "If the people don't sell
willingly, their lands and homes could be condemned through
eminent domain. This is nothing less than an all out attack on
rural America and ranks right up there with the Endangered
Species Act in terms of harming private land owners and
communities in this country."

The reference was to the 1973 legislation which extended federal
protectionism over thousands of species, including insects and
microscopic shrimp and bacteria, stopping construction and wiping
out industries, farms, and homes in the process.

"To get what he wants the president is basically holding several
appropriations bills hostage, using the threat of veto," Cushman
continued. "The Interior (Department) appropriations bill has
been passed without giving him what he wanted, and he is expected
to veto it. But there are several other appropriations bills
pending, and Clinton is trying to get these packaged together as
an omnibus bill, with Lands Legacy 2000 added as a rider."

Specifically, Clinton requested $797 million for the Interior and
related agencies, including $413 million for federal land
acquisitions and roughly $200 million in new grants programs. The
conference committee agreement provides $335 million for the
programs that comprise the Lands Legacy Initiative -- with $255
million of that to go for federal land acquisitions in the
Everglades, the California Desert, Baca Ranch in New Mexico and
Civil War battlefields.

That's far short of what Clinton requested.

"This is a big deal," Cushman said. "There were meetings Thursday
in which key senators on the Appropriations Committee admitted
they would have a hard time stopping this. What I'm telling you
is not speculation. I've talked to staff people who sat between
two key senators as they discussed this issue -- I don't want to
name the names, but I can assure you that what I am telling you
is absolute gospel truth."

WorldNetDaily was able to confirm the report independently.

Clinton announced the Lands Legacy Initiative in January, calling
on Congress to appropriate $1 billion for land acquisition. This
was touted as "the largest one-year investment ever in the
protection of America's land resources." At the same time Clinton
explained that although the initiative represented a budget
request for FY 2000, he was "committed to work with Congress to
create a permanent funding stream beginning in FY 2001."

The Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) -- which is financed
by offshore oil, gas and mineral leases and royalties -- was
identified as the stream. Part of the LWCF money would flow
automatically to the four major federal land agencies: the U.S.
Forest Service, Department of Land Management, National Park
Service and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to increase their
holdings. LWCF money would also be made available to states and
local governments for buying land for greenbelts, parks, wetlands
and wildlife habitat and urban parks. A cool billion dollars a
year just for real estate.

As Cushman indicated, there would be no oversight by Congress, no
need for the agencies to go to the legislature each year for a
share from the budget.

"It would be a permanent automatic entitlement," said Cushman.

The National Parks and Conservation Association (NPCA) -- which
has

The Omega Code -

What message is ultimately sent by this movie?

Is this movie to be interpreted as fact, fiction or something in-
between by Christians?

I've overheard several conversations from people that have seen the
movie that now appear to be incorporating the theory of the "Bible
Code" as "gospel" into their personal belief systems.

The wholesale marketing by several religious groups, going so far as to
buy tickets for their youth groups, reinforces this.

I suggest that a healthy consideration and explanation by these groups
to their youth is in order.

I also note with dismay, that the star of this film, Casper Van Dien,
also is the star of a movie released a few days ago to video (after the
Omega Code) called Modern Vampires. A movie which I rented based on his
performance in the Omega Code.

This is the ACTOR who says "save me Jesus" in the Omega Code.

Modern Vampires
A
HREF="http://www.starguideweb.com/OCTOBER/modern_vampires.html"http://www.
starguideweb.com/OCTOBER/modern_vampires.html/A

In Modern Vampires (R-Rated), Casper Van Dien is a vampire that uses
four-letter-words, has intercourse with another vampire on top of a car
and at the closing of the movie strolls into the night with his new
girlfriend and their newly acquired lesbian lover.

There are dangers in "going Hollywood" that should be adequately
considered.

Impressionable children should be counseled on the dangers of confusing
fact with fiction and actors with real-life characters.

Some adults also could use this counseling.

x.com: America's News Page/A


With Carl Limbacher and NewsMax.com Staff
For the story behind the story...
Sunday October 10, 1:42 PM
Waco's Entrails
Despite congressional lethargy and a special prosecutor whose chief mission
seems to be to delay the fact-finding process, the truth about Waco is
gradually
emerging.
The leading investigative journalist on the 1993 massacre continues to be The
Dallas Morning News' Lee Hancock, whose stunning reports can be found
regularly on NewsMax.com's main news page.
But significant details are emerging in other venues.
James Ridgeway, reporting for New York's Village Voice, covered new
evidence this week about the presence of foreign military personnel during the
51-day siege at Mt. Carmel:
"The Army's Delta Force and the Navy Seals weren't the only observers at
Waco, which, as details spill out, looks more and more like a training op for
the
international commando set. Among others present were representatives of
Britain's elite Special Air Services, infamous for its counterinsurgency
operations in Northern Ireland."
Ridgeway sources a report in the Irish Echo, which unearthed a July 31, 1996,
letter from the FBI to Sen. Charles Robb. The letter states in part:
"... two SAS soldiers visiting at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, requested and
were
granted a courtesy visit. The main purpose ... was to experience how the FBI
operated its command post. They were shown the relationship of the FBI's
command post to the tactical operations center, were allowed a visit to the
forward tactical area, and were provided generic briefings regarding the
incident.
Although the HRT [Hostage Rescue Team] had tactical interface with the SAS
during routine practice and training, at no time was the SAS called upon to
participate in ... the siege."
In his dissent to the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee's
1996 report on Waco, Rep. Bob Barr apparently alluded to the SAS's presence,
complaining:
"I seriously question the role of military officers being involved in strategy
sessions as on-site 'observers,' the presence of foreign military personnel
and
the use of military equipment such as armored vehicles."
On Friday, The Dallas Morning News examined other evidence central to the
government's claim that the Davidians started the fire: recordings from FBI
listening devices evidently planted within the Mt. Carmel compound. (The
government won't reveal exactly how they managed to bug the Davidians.)
The FBI's tear gas attack began at 6 a.m. on the final day of the siege.
Minutes
later, FBI sound equipment recorded church members talking about pouring
fuel.
The Clinton administration has long maintained that Waco's fatal fire came as
a
horrific surprise. But the recordings suggest that some Davidians were
planning
to torch the compound up to six hours before the fire erupted.
The FBI says that the key warning only became clear after their recordings
were enhanced.
But reporter Hancock notes, "FBI agents have never fully explained why the
bureau, before the April 19th assault, called Parkland Hospital in Dallas to
ask
how many beds its burn unit had available."
Last month, Inside Cover featured a transcript of an April 19 Dallas TV
interview with a Parkland nurse administrator who said the FBI put the
hospital
on alert at 6:11 a.m. that day, nearly six hours before Waco's flames erupted.
(See: FBI Alerted Dallas Hospital Hours Before Waco Fire.)
If the FBI didn't understand the fire warnings apparent on their own
surveillance
tapes until those tapes were enhanced, then why the calls to Parkland on April
19?
According to the Morning News, FBI logs show that agents "issued a 911 call"
to local firefighters at 12:13 p.m., just six minutes after it became
apparent the
compound was burning.
But Inside Cover has been told that a Davidian relative watching from a
distance grew increasingly anxious as the conflagration spread without any
response from the local fire department. Ten frightening minutes passed.
Finally, the relative personally called Bellmead Fire Station. Their answer?
Bellmead's dispatcher allegedly told the relative that his unit had been
explicitly
ordered by the FBI not to respond to the inferno.
Only after the panicked relative contacted Waco's Sheriff Harwell, who
immediately interceded, were Bellmead firetrucks ordered to the scene.
The congressional testimony of Jeffrey Jamar, the FBI's Waco field
commander, lends support to the above account -- and contradicts bureau logs
indicating that fire equipment was summoned promptly:
"When the fire did start and the firetrucks did arrive, I didn't let them in.
I held
them at the checkpoint. Because I didn't want the firemen to drive into
gunfire.
I just wasn't going to permit it. It's a terrible thing; a very terrible
decision to
have to make. But I didn't hesitate. It took me two seconds to make [that
decision]. But we held the

Sentencing
Americans to death

© 1999 WorldNetDaily.com
As noted by Mr. Harry Browne recently on the pages
of WorldNetDaily, the issue of guns and gun control
probably shouldn't center on the Second Amendment
and our "right" to own a weapon in this country. Sadly,
that should be enough but it isn't because, as he pointed
out, most people are concerned only about "rights" that
directly affect them. And for a large portion of the
country, gun "rights" don't matter because they believe
politicians who tell them armed police officers will
protect them from anything harmful.
So, if the object of the gun control debate is to win
pro-gun "converts," Mr. Browne's strategy of changing
the focus from one of "rights" to "public safety" is spot
on target. That's why it is imperative to jump on stories
like this one when they are published. Everyone needs
to know when some public official is putting their life at
risk.
As the story notes, if the state's Democrat attorney
general, J. Joseph Curran, gets his way, nearly all
Maryland residents will be handed a potential death
sentence soon, their only crime being that of trusting
state officials like him to protect them because they
believed his anti-gun propaganda. This is not a good
reason to die for.
According to the Washington Post, Mr. Curran, like
Maryland's Democrat governor, Parris N. Glendening,
is a staunch gun control advocate and is proposing
"sweeping" new legislation whose ultimate goal is the
banning all handguns in the state. Well, not all
handguns, actually -- Mr. Curran believes they should
only "be the province of the military or law enforcement
or a special segment of people." And naturally, true to
autocratic form, he wants to decide who the "special
people" are. "King Curran I," if you will.
To put his proposals into perspective, though, we really
need to first understand the practical applications of
them and how they might translate into actual safety for
American citizens, discounting the empty notion of
merely feeling safer.
To begin with, Mr. Curran's suggestion that handguns
belong only in the hands of one particular group, the
military, is inconsequential when it comes to actually
being safe in our homes, on our streets, and in our
communities. Since the military cannot, by law,
participate in civilian law enforcement, this suggestion
becomes a moot point. It goes without saying that the
military indeed should be equipped with the very best
and latest small arms and ammunition, since they
provide general security (if not tangible "safety") to all
Americans every day of every year. Most of us are not
too worried, though, about invading hordes because
we're more worried about practical threats appropriate
to our situation -- like some idiot in a dark alley who
wants to do us harm.
Next, Mr. Curran believes that only police officers need
to have the kind of protection (immediate and
unencumbered access to a handgun) we all deserve. By
suggesting this, he creates a class warfare argument:
Police officers are more important than regular folks.
And of course, it doesn't hurt that police officers will be
the first ones called if "hordes" of ticked-off Americans
ever sought to harm precious politicians like Mr.
Curran.
But for safety's sake, says Mr. Curran, if we only
allowed the police to be armed then there wouldn't be
any more crime to worry about and hence, there would
be no legitimate "safety" concern to own, carry and use
a handgun in one's self-defense. That's a ridiculous
thought and I realize that, but this is precisely what Mr.
Curran is intimating.
Having fleshed out Mr. Curran's suggestions, it now
becomes entirely appropriate to examine the hard
evidence regarding criminal activity in this country. After
all, law-abiding American citizens most often quote
self-defense as the reason why they believe they need
to be armed at all times.
Based on the FBI's most recent (1998) Uniform Crime
Report, the statistics don't support his utopian view of
the issue of personal safety in the United States.
Though violent crime is at it's lowest in years, consider
these numbers and see if it makes you feel safe enough
to give up the best form of personal protection available
today, in lieu of being "protected" only by the police:

Law enforcement agencies nationwide recorded
a 21 percent Crime Index clearance rate in
1998, which means that 79 percent of crimes
went unsolved. The clearance rate for violent
crimes was 49 percent, meaning 51 percent went
unsolved, while the figure for property crimes
was 17 percent cleared and 83 percent
uncleared.

The crime clearance rate was lowest for burglary
and motor vehicle theft, with 14 percent solved
and 86 percent unsolved. How much would
armed home invasions or carjackings increase if
nobody were allowed to be armed, except the
police?

There are only 641,208 police

The dangers of
a disarmed society

© 1999 WorldNetDaily.com
I don't often write about the same subject twice in a
week, but I received a pro-gun/pro-safety response
from an interesting fellow last Thursday after I wrote a
column about the absurdity of disarming all Americans.
I thought readers would find it useful in making their
case that the gun issue really does revolve around
safety, not just rights.
This is his message:
"Just read your article on Maryland's attorney general
wanting to ban handguns for most. Your conclusions
are correct. "We have lived for a number of years in
Kenya. There ALL guns are banned, including toy guns
that look like guns. The only exception is for small bore
shotguns for bird hunting, which are owned by a select
few. These guns must be stored in the local police
station armory. They can be checked out only during
hunting season. It takes an act of parliament to get
shells.
"Yet in Kenya any criminal that wants one can get a
gun.
"My wife and a friend were robbed at gunpoint near
Mombassa. Their vehicle was taken also and they were
left standing on the side of the road. As they were
walking along they heard shots. The same crooks who
had just robbed them, robbed and killed a tourist down
the road. And this is in a nation where the police go
around with automatic weapons.
"They (the police), by the way, shoot to kill all the time.
I worked as a pilot and the airport had armed police
everywhere and lots of 'security.' One day, in front of
our hangar, a Kenyan made the mistake of touching the
policeman's rifle. He died for that mistake, right there in
the parking lot. One night in Nairobi, next to my house,
a person was lurking in a nearby empty lot. The police
came and blew him away with automatic rifle fire. Shoot
first and no questions, now or later.
"Make no mistake, when only the police have guns, no
one is safe. But even wanton killing by police does not
deter crime. The only safety is when you're at home and
behind locked bars. Bars everywhere, doors, windows,
gates, everywhere. We had to have a security guard,
armed with a machete, and a locked gate and wall
around our house. Day and night. Terrible way to live.
"And there is still no safety. There are home invasions
there too, where 20 or 30 thugs come with wrecking
bars and break into houses. Happens all the time. The
police for the most part had no cars for transportation.
Call 999 (911) and if the phone happened to be
working, the response would be on foot or by public
bus.
"Another friend was robbed once, during the day. The
police came and when they were standing in line for the
bus to go back to the stationhouse they noticed
someone standing there in line also, with the loot they
recognized from the same robbery they came to
investigate. The person started to run, so they blew him
away too. Our friend felt real bad someone had to die
over mere 'stuff.'
"I am a gun owner and don't like the NRA, but when
they say, 'when guns are outlawed then only outlaws
will have guns,' they are correct. Then, no one is safe."
This gentleman wrote me again last Friday, telling me
that he'd still jump at the chance to make a pilgrimage to
Kenya, even to this day, and he was emphatic that all
parts of Africa are not similar. But he added that even in
a country with a well-armed police force, criminals
who still manage to acquire "tightly regulated and
prohibited" firearms commit ghastly crimes, including
murder, rape and robbery.
Alas -- and in keeping with the notion of tying gun rights
to the issue of overall safety -- that is the point this man
is trying to make.
Point taken, as they say.
Still I wonder, how many vehement anti-gunners will
simply never get the message until it is they who are
confronted with this threat and there is nobody around
to help and no way to help themselves? Will it be only
then they will ask themselves -- right before a criminal
puts a gun to their head -- why they didn't realize
sooner that indeed the issue of gun rights was really an
issue of personal safety all along?
Writing about the wisdom of opposing abortion, Alan
Keyes last week made some brilliant points about
avoiding the pitfalls of painting all who oppose your
point of view as "immoral" slobs with no consciences.
He's right; some very well-meaning people who are
otherwise very well informed and compassionate about
a variety of issues still cannot see the wisdom in
supporting gun rights, either as a matter of constitutional
law and freedom or as a matter of enhancing personal
and community safety. We shouldn't, as Mr. Keyes
suggested, simply write these people off as our enemies
and fail to engage them in reasonable dialogue, debate
and discussion. Instead, we need to demonstrate that it
is because we care about them -- as well as ourselves
-- that we support the Constitution's reaffirmation

[CTRL] [BRIGADE] PJB: The New Patriotism - His speech today!

1999-10-25 Thread Bill Richer

 -Caveat Lector-

WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Peace at any cost is a prelude to war!

Dear Brigade,

Just got back from Pat's announcement -- all I can say is Pat is the
MAN!
Here's his speech and will send more later.

GO PAT GO!

--

The New Patriotism
by Patrick J. Buchanan
October 25, 1999 - Falls Church, Virginia

Good morning. Today, I am ending my lifelong membership in the Republican
Party,
and my campaign for its nomination; and I am declaring my intention to seek
the
nomination of the Reform Party for the presidency of the United States.

This decision was not made without anguish and regret. I will forever cherish
the
memory of having been perhaps the only Goldwaterite in the Graduate School of
Journalism at Columbia University in 1961. Nor will I ever regret my nine
years of
service to Richard Nixon, from his comeback campaigns of 1966 and '68, to our
49-
state triumph of '72, through the final days of Watergate.

I was with Nixon in China. And I also had the high honor of being Ronald
Reagan's
second in the Panama Canal debates, and at his side when that great president
refused to give up missile defense and walked out of the summit at Reykjavik
in
Ronald Reagan's finest hour of the Cold War. From the thunderous reception we
got
at Houston in 1992, when I told the Buchanan Brigades we had to come home and
stand beside George Bush, to the ovations at Ames, Iowa, last summer, when I
faced off with his son, the Governor, the Republican party has been good to
me. And
I have tried to be loyal to it. But, as John F. Kennedy said, Sometimes party
loyalty
asks too much. And today it asks too much of us.

Today, candor compels us to admit that our vaunted two-party system is a
snare and
a delusion, a fraud upon the nation. Our two parties have become nothing but
two
wings of the same bird of prey. On foreign and trade policy, open borders and
centralized power, our Beltway parties have become identical twins. Both
supported
NAFTA and GATT and the surrender of our national sovereignty to the WTO. Both
supported the extension of nuclear war guarantees to the borders of Russia.
Both
supported the illegal war on Serbia. Both support IMF bailouts of corrupt
regimes.
Both vote for MFN trade privileges for a Communist Chinese regime that today
targets missiles on American cities. The appeasement of Beijing is a
bipartisan
disgrace, and we will not be a part of it.

Neither party speaks for the forgotten Americans whose jobs were sent
overseas to
finance the boom market of the 1990s that the rest of us enjoy. Both parties
are
addicted to soft money. Both write laws with lobbyists looking over their
shoulders.
Both embrace the unprincipled politics of triangulation.

And neither fights today with conviction and courage to rescue God's country
from
the cultural and moral pit into which she has fallen. The day of the outsider
is over in
the Beltway parties; the money men have seen to that. Never again will our
political
establishment permit a dissident to come as close to capturing a nomination
as we
did in 1996. They have rearranged the primary schedule and rigged the game to
protect the party favorites.

Candidates of ideas need not apply, as both parties seek out the hollow men,
the
malleable men, willing to read from teleprompters speeches scripted by
consultants
and pollsters for whom the latest print-out from the Focus Group is sacred
text.

We choose not to play our assigned role in their sham election. My friends,
this year
is our last chance to save our republic, before she disappears into the
godless New
World Order that our elites are constructing in a betrayal of everything for
which our
Founding Fathers lived, fought, and died.

Only the Reform Party offers the hope of a real debate and a true choice of
destinies
for our country. "If we don't go now, Pat," I have been told by loyalists all
across
America, "every cause for which we fought for seven years will die." Well, we
can't let
those causes die, because they are America's cause. So let me say to the
money
boys and the Beltway elites who think that, at long last, they have pulled up
their
drawbridge and locked us out forever: You don't know this peasant army. We
have
not yet begun to fight.

So, let me lay out our Patriots' Road for America. With the Cold War over, we
shall
craft a foreign policy for a new century rooted in the great tradition of
Washington,
Jefferson and John Quincy Adams who wrote:

Wherever the standard of freedom and independence...shall be unfurled, there
will
[America's] heart, her benedictions and her prayers beBut she goes not
abroad in
search of monsters to destroy.

I pledge to you: I will never send an American army to fight in a foreign
war, unless
our country is attacked or our vital interests are imperiled. They call us
"isolationists." Well, if they mean I intend to isolate America from the
bloody
territorial and ethnic wars of the new century, I plead

With Few Police to Stop It,Crime Flourishes in Kosovo
By R. Jeffrey Smith
Washington Post Foreign Service

Saturday, October 23, 1999; Page A19

JAZINCE, Yugoslavia—A silver truck with two large trailers pulled up to this
border crossing with Macedonia recently, and Hasan Koshtanjevci leaned out the
window to tell customs officials that he was carrying clothing meant for
destitute ethnic Albanians in Kosovo.

But when the two U.N. policemen who patrol the crossing peeked beneath a canvas
tarp at the rear of the truck, they found a Volkswagen Golf and a Mercedes-
Benz, both headed north into the chaotic and crime-ridden environment of post-
war Kosovo. The U.N. police ordered the truck back to Macedonia.

It was one small victory for the nascent police presence at Kosovo's southern
border with Albania and Macedonia, one of the most porous border crossings in
Europe.

U.N. and Western officials say that since NATO's air campaign against
Yugoslavia ended in June, criminals have passed without difficulty into Kosovo
from Albania and Macedonia, smuggling cars, cigarettes, fuel, narcotics and
other goods, much of it bound for Western Europe.

U.N. officials worry that this is fueling an economic crime wave in the Serbian
province. Arrests and detentions by U.N. policemen and NATO peacekeeping troops
for robberies, looting, auto thefts and other crimes are increasing.

"This is a perfect environment for criminals . . . [and] the level of crimes is
at a totally unacceptable level," said Sven Frederiksen, a Danish policeman who
worked on the international police force in Bosnia and recently became the U.N.
police commissioner in Kosovo. "I'm absolutely sure that drugs are flowing into
the province . . . and going on into Europe. I'm quite sure that the big Audis
and Mercedes you see are not all legal."

U.N. officials here have called for doubling the proposed size of the Kosovo
police force to 6,000 officers. They also have requested that the troops in the
NATO peacekeeping force take on more police duties, though senior NATO officers
here have spurned that idea.

In the meantime, U.S. and allied intelligence agencies have dispatched
specialists on organized crime and narcotics trafficking to Kosovo.

"The chaos makes it a ripe and attractive target for smugglers" who were active
in the region well before the war, said a senior U.S. official who visited
Kosovo recently to discuss narcotics and police matters. "The police have not
been setting up good border controls; they've had other things to do."

Small amounts of cocaine, heroin, marijuana and methadone have been confiscated
at the border, and two weeks ago U.N. police in Pristina, the Kosovo capital,
for the first time arrested several men with heroin, marijuana and needles in
their possession. The men said they had obtained the drugs in Skopje, the
Macedonian capital.

"The border is a veritable sieve," said Lt. Col. Edward Donnelly, chief of
operations for the U.S.-led military brigade responsible for the southeast
sector of Kosovo, which borders Macedonia. "We know there's organized crime in
Gnijilane," the sector's largest city. But U.S. troops have not seized any
drugs, he said, because "we're not looking for it. We're trained to fight
wars," not patrol borders.

Police statistics suggest that the probability of being caught depends heavily
on where in Kosovo a crime is committed, because the U.N. police force has only
been deployed in Pristina and some NATO forces are more willing than others to
tackle crime.

Within the U.S. sector, for example, 73 ethnic Albanians and 14 Serbs have been
imprisoned for crimes from murder and arson to larceny, looting and reckless
driving, more than in any other Kosovo sector. That compares with 52 people
detained by British forces, 32 by the German and 13 by the Italians.

None of those arrested in Kosovo since the war ended has been brought to trial,
because U.N. officials determined that the criminal laws of Yugoslavia violated
human rights and have yet to draft new ones or create a broader judicial and
prison system. As a result, a group of five ethnic Albanians appointed to an ad
hoc supreme court orders detentions only in the most serious cases. It releases
other suspected criminals pending court appearances that are yet unscheduled.
"We are undermanned, underpowered and underequipped," said Michele Lefebvre, a
veteran Canadian police officer handling homicides in Pristina. "I've seen more
weapons since coming here than in my entire career. You have bread and butter
at home? Well, they have a machine gun."

Lefebvre said that crime investigators "lack any forensic support, and have to
use our own cameras and film--we got nothing from the United Nations. Even
getting decent autopsies is hard--there are no photos taken and no X-rays."
Auto theft investigations are nearly impossible because no car registration and
licensing system exists, although one will be

Colombians Mount Anti-War Protests

Colombians march for peace
[photo] AP/Oswaldo Paez [image not copied]

URIBE, Colombia (AP) — Millions joined unprecedented anti-war marches in
Colombia's main cities, and rebel leaders insisted at the inauguration of
peace talks that it will take more than a simple rejection of violence to
end the country's 35-year conflict.

Members of a citizens' peace movement marched Sunday in 15 cities and dozens
of smaller towns for a cease-fire, a rapid settlement and an end to violence
against civilians — the conflict's principal victims.

Waving red, blue and yellow Colombian flags and chanting slogans like ``For
Peace, Not One More Shot. For Peace, Not One More Kidnapping,'' hundreds of
thousands streamed through the main avenues of Bogota, Medellin and Cali,
the country's three biggest cities.

Entire families, from toddlers in strollers to elderly people aided by
canes, joined stiltwalkers, mime artists and folk musicians in a festive
atmosphere with a serious message. The protest's main slogan — printed on
T-Shirts and small flags carried by marchers — was simple: ``No More.''

Rebels leave Uribe after the start of peace talks

Organizers said more than 5 million people turned out nationwide, 2 million
of them in the capital.

There was a sense of urgency to the marches. The conflict is worsening, the
economy is in its deepest recession since the 1930s and thousands of upper-
and middle-class Colombians are fleeing abroad.

In Uribe, a southern rebel-controlled town where negotiations with the
leftist Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, were formally
inaugurated on Sunday after months of delays, rebel commanders put their own
spin on the ``No More'' message.

The FARC contends the government has done nothing to address deeply rooted
social inequity or halt death squad activity by right-wing paramilitary
groups who have for decades silenced left-wing politicians with
assassinations.

``We must support a solution to Colombia's social and political crisis, and
say once and for all: No more state terrorism disguised as paramilitarism
... No more illiteracy, no more political corruption, no more homeless
Colombians,'' chief rebel negotiator Raul Reyes said in a speech at the
launch of formal negotiations with the government.

Many of the townspeople watching the ceremony held under a corrugated steel
roof on the town's basketball court sported T-shirts handed out earlier by
rebels that read: ``No More Gringo Military,'' a reference to the stepped-up
U.S. military aid being used by Colombia's government to fight guerrilla
units that protect the illegal drug trade.

On the dusty streets outside, guerrilla banners demanded: ``No More
Unemployment,'' ``No More Massacres,'' ``No More Torture.''

Reyes said the guerrilla slogans were not intended to mock the nascent
citizens' peace movement, but to explain what the FARC feels are the true
causes of Colombia's civil strife.

Organizers of Sunday's marches said they hoped they would establish a trend
in a country where years of violence — and assassinations of peace
activists — have bred indifference and apathy.

Marching in Bogota's morning drizzle with his wife and two children, 38-year
old publicist Nestor Dionisio was one newly-converted protester.

``I've always been indifferent. This is the first time I've marched with my
family,'' he said, pushing his 2-year-old daughter in a stroller with a
white peace balloon attached to it.

After his election last year, President Andres Pastrana raised hopes for an
end to a conflict that has claimed more than 35,000 lives with a daring
visit to the jungle hide-out of FARC chieftain Manuel Marulanda, but that
optimism slumped when talks became bogged down in arguments over ground
rules.

Many Colombians were jolted into action by a surge this year in guerrilla
kidnappings and the August assassination of Jaime Garzon, a beloved comic
and prominent peace advocate.

But not everyone has great faith in the negotiations.

Skeptics say the fledgling peace movement still lacks direction and a clear

THE ANOINTED ONE AND AMERICA'S FUTURE -
PARTY BEFORE COUNTRY?
By MARK D. MEAD - October 23, 1999

  American conservatives were, by and large, hooting and hollering and
  probably many out there celebrated with some champagne when
  Republicans took over the Congress of the United States in 1994.
  Finally, we thought, a majority in both the House and the Senate
  would provide an opportunity to change the nation and steer it in
  the direction our founders intended it to be headed.

  But the great opportunity of ’94 has been nothing but a great
  disappointment, and the Republican leadership has proven to be
  flaccid. The Party has been weak on Clinton and his corrupt
  administration; it has been weak on immigration reform, weak on
  abortion, weak on globalism, weak on campaign finance reform, weak
  on big government, and weak on the Second Amendment. In place of
  resoluteness and negotiatory wherewithal, capitulation and
  equivocation have defined and characterized the GOP since that
  celebration of ‘94. Thus the rhetoric of congressional Republicans
  is of a counterfeit credibility, and quite frankly, grassroots
  conservatives are sick and tired of it.

  Now the GOP establishment is anointing Governor George W. Bush as
  their nominee for president. Why? Bush is an “attractive” candidate.
  It doesn’t matter whether he represents the principles of the Party
  and its members, and it doesn’t matter if Bush is a big government
  (a.k.a. compassionate conservatism) man, they just want a winner.
  They care more about purchasing votes and less about the future of
  our country. They have sacrificed their own principles in hopes of
  courting enough votes from Middle America and at the same time
  sacrificed its own members on the alter of extreme moderatism.

  So now the muddleheaded Establishment has backed itself into a
  corner by abandoning its principles and its members, and the
  plush-bottoms are scared indeed. They fear a legitimate debate on
  the issues, they fear a legitimate voice of pro-American policies,
  and oh my, they fear that someone will actually speak with candor to
  the American people.

  At the national level, the Republican Party is not a conservative
  party. Grassroots conservatives are not represented in Washington,
  which has resulted in historically low voter turnouts. The Party is
  one that embraces MFN for communist China; the Party wants to bring
  them into the WTO. Never mind the fact that China is threatening our
  Panama Canal, or persecuting women and Christians. Never mind that
  they are pointing missiles at Taiwan and at our cities here in the
  United States. What’s worse is that this comes after the confirmed
  reports of Chinese espionage within our nuclear labs. Indeed it is
  Republicans who are authoring these trade agreements that give China
  billions of American dollars in trade surpluses every year. How
  appeasement of communist China will strengthen our nation is beyond
  me. Is it not frightening, my friends, that the Republican
  Establishment—our “leadership”—embraces every single one of these
  policies? Is it not frightening to think of how vulnerable we are
  under this leadership to these perilous policies which clearly
  compromise our national security, our territorial integrity, and our
  national sovereignty?

  "We should revolt and dethrone this King George," you say. “Let’s
  get a true conservative in there and beat Bush.” However, the harsh
  reality hits: the fix is in and Bush’s multi-million dollar war
  chest is insurmountable. Bush agents have rigged the campaign
  through backroom deals that prevent grassroots conservatives from
  being heard. How? Behind the scenes, the GOP establishment is
  cooperating with Bush’s goons to eliminate all

This is from my Oxford English Dictionary.  It is interesting, that the

prolong life and maintain mental health, remember Karen's Starfire Rituals

hallucinogenic mushrooms) and certain other organic stimulants (note; LSD is
not organic, nor molecularly similar and is believed to cause false visions)
are almost molecularly identical to the structure of Serotonin and allows us
to see with the souls eye (photo receptic).  See page 49 of The Cosmic
Serpent DNA and the Origins of Knowledge.  Is it possible that the

 NOW chapter supports Republicans Virginia group breaks
with national organization


  

By Charles Smith
© 1999 WorldNetDaily.com

The National Organization For Women was formed during the turmoil of the
'60s. For over 30 years NOW has championed women's rights, legalized
abortion, and equal pay. Since its formation, NOW has been a hard-core
bastion of support for liberal Democrats.
On Oct. 13, 1999, the solid wall of support cracked wide open. Marie-Jose
Ragab, president of the NOW Dulles Chapter, issued a scathing statement
against the Clinton administration and the Democratic Party of Virginia for
supporting him. Ragab's NOW chapter has called for a "Republican majority" in
Virginia elections.

"It is indeed a historic event," stated Virginia Republican party spokesman
Tim Murtaugh. "It is a surprising and welcomed endorsement. This the first
time in 20 years that a Virginia NOW chapter has endorsed Republican
candidates. They are not a Republican group."

"I'd like to point out the extraordinary courage it took to shake the
Democrat domination of NOW," continued Murtaugh. "This is the first group of
women to break away from the dishonest Democrat campaign of scare tactics and
catering to the fears of mothers. Clearly the Virginia Democrats refusal to
condemn Bill Clinton shows that they are siding against the legal rights of
all women."

Democrats, however, were quick to respond to the endorsement by the northern
Virginia based NOW chapter with counter-charges of their own.

"I believe the Dulles Chapter is a radical NOW chapter," stated Virginia
Democrat party spokesman Craig Beiber. "Clearly, they are a renegade group.
This is no big surprise. The group is just showing their Republican
tendencies."

"I think they need to explain themselves," stated Beiber. "I'd like to see
them explain their support for Republican candidates such as Virginia
candidate Jim Jones who was convicted of sexual harassment charges."

According to the Roanoke Times, Jones, the current Republican candidate for
the Virginia 39th district State Senate, was convicted in 1993 on misdemeanor
assault and battery charges for unlawfully touching a 21-year-old woman who
worked for him. The GOP was unaware of the conviction against Jones and has
questioned him about the charges.

"I do not see Republicans rushing to support Mr. Jones as the Democrats
rushed to aid Mr. Clinton," stated Ragab during an exclusive WorldNetDaily
interview.

"I gladly accept the title of renegade when the cause is right," said Ragab.
"A lot of corruption has been brought into the Women's movement by the
Democrats. When they brought the Clintons into the White House I knew right
there that the organization was not going in the right direction."

Ragab noted that despite the recent historic announcement, there have not
been many calls from the press.

"No mainstream media will air an interview," stated Ragab. "They consider us
to be untouchable because of the Clintons. Clinton fatigue is not only
affecting America but it is affecting the world. Clinton is nearing a point
of collapse. They are getting desperate with more and more naked propaganda."

"The Democrat party did something similar to what they do in the third world,
which is to put the wife in charge of all women," explained Ragab. "The
moment Mrs. Clinton was in the White House she assumed control of all women's
issues and silenced the other voices. This is a way to control all women.
This is a very bad thing to do."

"For example, we have not heard any criticism of the Clinton administration
in the foreign policy field," stated Ragab who, as a representative of NOW,
investigated international trafficking of women. "Yet, the Clinton
administration and the World Bank helped Thailand organize and nationalize
their prostitution business."

"There are many countries around the world who are terrified about getting a
call from the White House, announcing a visit. They have to empty schools so
she can be applauded. They have to collect women workers to applaud her
husband. It is an enormous expense and amount of pressure. The cost is
horrendous."

"There is something perverse about it," said Ragab. "For the wife of a
President to come out and say, 'I am in charge from now on for all the women
and children of this country and all the women and children of the world' is
wrong. It stifles any discussion of the husband's policy. It is doomed to
failure. This clashes with the position of a first lady in a country with
rights."

"Bill Clinton was impeached and fined for perjury. Republicans saved Title
Seven and upheld the law. Democrats ridiculed Paula Jones and the Republican
house managers. They said it was all about sex. The Democrats tried to break

Hi,
My name is Milos Markovic, and most of you already know me. During the
aggression of USA and NATO on FRY I was sending e-mails about their crimes,
and now I am starting new fight against KFOR and UNMIK.



Yugoslav people was given a promise by UN, NATO and its members that
peacekeeping force will protect Kosovo, non albanian population there and
that state of Serbia will have control under that province.
Yugoslav people was given a promise by UN, NATO and its members that
Yugoslav army, Serbian Ministry of Internal Affairs units will go back to
Kosovo.
All of these promises were signed by representatives of NATO countries in UN
Security Council, Russia, China, for NATO signed by Gen. Jackson.


Now we see that all of it was a big LIE. Serbs are not protected. Every day
more and more people of non albanian population are being killed,
raped.Children are being burned.
Yugoslav army and MUP(Serbian Ministry of Internal Affairs) are still
waiting to go back.

Organizations that are under control of state of Serbia are in hands of
UNMIK or in most ceases in hands of Albanian terrorists. Albanians are now
able to print passports, ID..
Albanians are entering Serbian hospitals, schools.they kill people that
work there trying to clean Kosovo out of all non albanian populations


For all of this I wrote I have written facts:
MTA(Military Technical Aggrement)- signed by NATO and VJ says that border of
FRY with Albania and Macedonia will be protected by KFOR. I ask you way then
we have more and more citizens of Albania inside Kosovo and Metohija.
MTA  UNSC Resolution 1244- says that army and police of FRY will go back to
Kosovo as soon as possible. KFOR led by USA is creating situation in wich it
is not able for VJ and MUP to go back.
MTA- says that control of air space over Kosovo will be returned to
organizations of FRY. Control over our air space is still in hands of KFOR
commander.
Do I have to write more-
Media speace- by UN Resolution 1244 Serbia has control over media speace.
People from NATO with their equipment put a stop to signals of Yugoslav TV
stations.



All of these facts you can see at NATO web site!

Nuclear safety scandal


British nuclear arms plant close to disaster

by Antony Barnett Public Affairs Editor
Sunday October 24, 1999

BRITAIN'S top-secret nuclear warhead factory has been at risk of
a catastrophic nuclear accident numerous times in the past 12
months, an Observer investigation can reveal. The plant at
Aldermaston, Berkshire, has broken safety guidelines so many
times that nuclear experts believe only luck has prevented an
accident worse than that in Japan last month.

Perfect Science Technologies - Options for Humanity





FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Istanbul, Turkey, January 3, 1996 The following
statement is being addressed to Mikhail Gorbachev of the International Green
Cross, Dr.  Wally N' Dow, Secretary General of The Second United Nations
Conference on Human Settlements (Habitat II), The World Bank, The World
Health Organization, The White House and Ms.  Carol Browner, Administrator
of the United States Environmental Protection Agency.



On January 3, 1996 Perfect Science received full approval from the Turkish
Standards Institution for implementation of the Perfect Science
Environmental Purification Technologies.



Perfect Science took emergency action here today to halt to world-wide flood
of hydrocarbon pollution by calling for geopolitical adoption and
accelerated implementation of a global delivery system for its patented
Environmental Cleansing Formulae and Technologies.  The Perfect Science
Chairman announced details of what he called a new "direct business"

format.  He said Perfect Science was prepared to grant each of the world's

216 independent states controlling interest in individual joint ventures and
was prepared to accept payment from them in countertrade, with barter levels
based on a sliding scale of energy use per capita, in order, he said, "to
permit simultaneous adoption and participation by all the world's
governments."



The Perfect Science chairman described the Perfect Science Formulae as the
master key for unlocking the entire complex of hydrocarbon substances, as
well as all the other organic chemicals, that are currently laying siege to
and disabling the earth's soil, water and atmosphere.  "Having the passkey
to organic chemistry means you can clean up all carbonaceous fuels and
everything petrochemical from cradle to grave, "  he added.  "But in
addition to neutralizing all the poisonous effects, the Perfect Science
Formulae will renovate industrial processes at all levels and in all
sectors, permitting continued economic expansion without environmental
debacle."



"The sudden and thoroughgoing revision of all organic chemistry,"  he
continued, "will require similar revision of the industrial, financial and
insurance matrices within each sovereign state.  Moreover it is the
responsibility, and it will become the duty, of each government to take
effective measures locally for rescuing its people and region.  This task
will naturally include the proper co-ordination and regulation of the
Perfect Science Formulae."



The Perfect Science chairman stated further that the projected rescue of the
planetary environment by the emergency implementation of the Perfect Science
Formulae will simultaneously produce at least six other major
stabilizations:



of energy supply and demand

of insurance markets

of unfunded liabilities

of soft currencies of international relations

of national debts and revenues



Mikhail Gorbachev's speech delivered at the Fourth International Global
Forum conference in Kyoto, Japan delineated the grave implications of a
breakdown in the stability of the biosphere and the potential planetary
catastrophe that might ensue.  Mr.  Gorbachev called for all nations and
each individual to bring to bear all their efforts for the cause of human
survival.  It is now a well known fact that the severe disruption of global
ecosystems is the direct result of 140 years of irresponsible
industrialization resulting in the extensive contamination by hydrocarbons
and petrochemicals of sovereign atmospheres, lands, surface waters and
critical drinking water supplies.  It is no understatement to say that these
deadly industrial wastes have brought ecosystems around the world to he
precarious state of potential collapse.  As more and more third world
countries enter into industrialization for the benefit of their economies,
the added pressure of their industrial wastes, improperly dealt with, will
most certainly result in the drastic destabilization of planetary
ecosystems.  Mr.  Gorbachev clearly stated in his address that the
foundations of human existence could be undermined, threatening life on
earth.  Although these issues of industrial and economic development are
complex and are interwoven with cultural and social trends internationally,
three major challenges can be identified for discussion.  The first major
challenge is the intensive remediation of global environments which have
become supersaturated with toxic hydrocarbon and petrochemical wastes.  This
task will require the development of environmental purification technologies
which must be applicable for wide scale, cost effective implementation.  The
second major challenge is the complete restructuring of

  FREEDOM FROM WAR

THE UNITED STATES PROGRAM FOR GENERAL AND COMPLETE DISARMAMENT IN A
   PEACEFUL WORLD

DEPARTMENT OF STATE

DEPARTMENT OF STATE PUBLICATION 7277

Disarmament Series 5

Released September 1961

Office of Public Services

BUREAU OF PUBLIC AFFAIRS

INTRODUCTION

The revolutionary development of modern weapons within a world divided by
serious ideological differences has produced a crisis in human history. In
order to overcome the danger of nuclear war now confronting mankind, the
United States has introduced at the Sixteenth General Assembly of the
United Nations a Program for General and Complete Disarmament in a Peaceful
World.

This new program provides for the progressive reduction of the war-making
capabilities of nations and the simultaneous strengthening of international
institutions to settle disputes and maintain the peace. It sets forth a
series of comprehensive measures which can and should be taken in order to
bring about a world in which there will be freedom from war and security
for all states. It is based on three principles deemed essential to the
achievement of practical progress in the disarmament field:

First, there must be immediate disarmament action:

A strenuous and uninterrupted effort must be made toward the goal of
general and complete disarmament; at the same time, it is important that
specific measures be put into effect as soon as possible.

Second, all disarmament obligations must be subject to effective
international controls:

The control organization must have the manpower, facilities, and
effectiveness to assure that limitations or reductions take place as
agreed. It must also be able to certify to all states that retained forces
and armaments do not exceed those permitted at any stage of the disarmament
process.

Third, adequate peace-keeping machinery must be established:

There is an inseparable relationship between the scaling down of national
armaments on the one hand and the building up of international
peace-keeping machinery and institutions on the other. Nations are unlikely
to shed their means of self-protection in the absence of alternative ways
to safeguard their legitimate interests. This can only be achieved through
the progressive strengthening of international institutions under the
United Nations and by creating a United Nations Peace Force to enforce the
peace as the disarmament process proceeds.
---
There follows a summary of the principal provisions of the United States
Program for General and Complete Disarmament in a Peaceful World. The full
text of the program is contained in an appendix to this pamphlet.

  

  FREEDOM FROM WAR

THE UNITED STATES PROGRAM FOR GENERAL AND COMPLETE DISARMAMENT IN A
   PEACEFUL WORLD

SUMMARY

DISARMAMENT GOAL AND OBJECTIVES

The over-all goal of the United States is a free, secure, and peaceful
world of independent states adhering to common standards of justice and
international conduct and subjecting the use of force to the rule of law; a
world which has achieved general and complete disarmament under effective
international control; and a world in which adjustment to change takes
place in accordance with the principles of the United Nations.

In order to make possible the achievement of that goal, the program sets
forth the following specific objectives toward which nations should direct
their efforts:

The disbanding of all national armed forces and the prohibition of their
reestablishment in any form whatsoever other than those required to
preserve internal order and for contributions to a United Nations Peace
Force;

The elimination from national arsenals of all armaments, including all
weapons of mass destruction and the means for their delivery, other than
those required for a United Nations Peace Force and for maintaining
internal order;

The institution of effective means for the enforcement of international
agreements, and for the maintenance of peace in accordance with the
principles of the United Nations;

The establishment and effective operation of an International Disarmament
Organization within the framework of the United Nations to insure
compliance at all times with all disarmament obligations.

TASK OF NEGOTIATING STATES

The negotiating states are called upon to develop the program into a
detailed plan for general and complete disarmament and to continue their
efforts without interruption until the whole program has been achieved. To
this end, they are to seek the widest possible area of agreement at the
earliest possible date. At the same time, and without prejudice to progress
on the disarmament program, they are to seek agreement on those immediate
measures that would contribute to the common security of nations

Peace at any cost is a prelude to war!

The Left's war against America
By James Henry
No. 137, 11 - 17 October 1999
Few people appreciate the power of ideas. When they experience the social and
economic effects of intellectually inspired long-term trends, many tend to
ascribe the process to a conspiracy of some kind. (If only that were so).
More than 160 years ago J. S. Mill wrote of how the ideas of a few writers
can eventually influence the thinking of a nation's intellectuals. Keynes
made a similar point when he wrote: "Madmen in authority, who hear voices in
the air, are distilling their frenzy from some academic scribbler of a few
years back. I am sure that the power of vested interests is vastly
exaggerated compared with the gradual encroachment of ideas. Not, indeed,
immediately, but after a certain interval. . . . But, sooner or later, it is
ideas, not vested interests, which are dangerous for good or evil."

The strength of the Left has, in my opinion, always lain in its understanding
of the power of ideas. With few exceptions the so-called right has tended to
treat ideas with disdain, preferring to concentrate on traditional values, as
if these were independent of ideas. This gross error by conservative forces
allowed Leftist ideas to capture the media, universities, much of the school
system and the entertainment industry, especially Hollywood. In a sense, its
greatest triumph was in giving America the most corrupt administration in the
nation's history.

Once a nation's so-called elites begin to think alike, regardless of the
content of their ideas, they will tend to direct the nation along a path that
accords with their world-view. Once we understand this fact, even the most
incredibly stupid statements will make sense. Let's take as an example Deputy
Secretary of State Strobe Talbott's publicly expressed view that the United
States might not exist in its current form in the 21st Century because he
believes that nationhood will have become obsolete. (A view not shared by the
Russian, Polish, Chinese, Japanese and Korean governments, just to name a
few).

Anyone with Talbott's views would not have found a position in a responsible
and intellectually sound administration. But this is the sensitive '90s and
Bill 'I-feel-your-pain' Clinton lounges about in the Oval Office. It took a
Chinese columnist, Peter Zhang, to cleverly sum up the situation with the
observation that America is being run by the "Arkansas Hick and his merry
band of '60s dipsticks with their fairyfloss intellects and LSD-coloured view
of the world [who] continue to pursue policies that puts the United States
mainland at considerable risk."

And the '60s is the key. The likes of Talbott and the Clintons have their
intellectual roots in the left-wing ideas that swept through American
universities in the '60s. The malevolent fruits of that intellectual plague
captured the humanity faculties and after 30 years of relentless Leftist
indoctrination succeeded in thoroughly polluting the nation's intellectual
environment. The products of this intellectual pestilence now dominate the
media and much of the legal profession, including the judiciary; our schools
have been contaminated to an extraordinary degree as has the entertainment
industry. Even corporate boardrooms have succumbed to this poisonous brew.

The basis of this ideology is a pathological hatred of America. Understanding
this fact makes us realise that Talbott, a former journalist and college
roommate of Clinton, is not really calling for a world government but the
destruction of the USA, an oppressive, exploitative and racist society. These
were the ideas that the likes of Talbott absorbed during their college days
and they have never renounced them. This is the principle reason why Talbott
and the rest of Clinton's "merry band of '60s dipsticks with their fairyfloss
intellects" are so light on China1. It's really all America's fault, meaning
"white America". This lot are so riddled with shame and guilt they are
prepared to sacrifice America's interests in order to atone for her alleged
sins while exculpating their own.

Talbott is an interesting example of the political decay and hypocrisy of
America's self-anointed political elites. He shared the radicals' enthusiasm
for the 'peace movement' and their doctrine of 'moral equivalence' that not
only equated America's faults with the totalitarian Soviet Union's atrocities
but also accused Reagan of being provocative, of being the villain, but never
the Soviets. Talbott's ridiculous assertion in Time that the collapse of
communism proved the peace movement had been right all along served to
demonstrate that this ideological moron is congenitally incapable of learning
the lessons of history. The trillions of dollars the US had spent on holding
Soviet barbarism at bay were, according to Talbott, a complete waste of
resources. That Reagan's defence push finally

Thomas Jefferson: Crypto Rebel?

by Wendy McElroy
Saturday, October 23, 1999


Encryption is the process of coding and decoding information to
ensure its privacy. The encryption of computer data may well be
the most powerful tool peaceful individuals have to protect
themselves against Big Brother.  Predictably, Big Brother is
eager to control it. The rationale, as expressed in A Report to
the President of the United States (Sept. 16, 1999): "American
history has been punctuated by periods in which the National
government had to respond to sweeping social, economic and
technological developments." Speaking of cyberspace as a "new
tool", the government claims that technology raises new issues to
which it must respond in new ways. Buncombe. The issues are the
same as they have always been. In 1785, a resolution authorized
the secretary of the Department of Foreign Affairs to open and
inspect any mail that related to the safety and interests of the
United States. The ensuing 'inspections' caused prominent men,
like George Washington, to complain of mail tampering.
According to various historians, it led James Madison, Thomas
Jefferson and James Monroe to write to each other in code - that
is, they encrypted their letters – in order to preserve the
privacy of their political discussion.

The need for Founding Fathers to encrypt the information they
sent to each other is high irony. The intrusive post office
against which they rebelled had been established specifically to
provide a free flow of political opinion. In the 1770's, Sam
Adams had urged the 13 colonies to create an independent postal
system. The existing post office, established by the British,
acted as a censor and barrier against the spread of rebellious
sentiment. Dorothy Ganfield Fowler in her book Unmailable:
Congress and the Post Office observed, "He [Adams] claimed the
colonial post office was made use of for the purpose of stopping
the 'Channels of publick Intelligence and so in Effect of aiding
the measures of Tyranny.'"  Thus, "'...the necessity of
substituting another office in its Stead must be obvious.'

Alas, the more governments change, the more things stay the same.
Soon, the Continental Congress itself wanted to declare some
types of matter 'unmailable' because their content was deemed too
dangerous. One of the first types of mail to become de facto
unmailable was Anti-Federalist letters and periodicals. During
the debates over ratifying the Constitution, the Anti-Federalists
- who basically rejected a Constitution unless it had a Bill of
Rights - simply could not circulate their material through the
Federalist-controlled post office.

Yet, like Adams, many of those who founded the Post Office seemed
to want communication to flow freely. The first official
restrictions placed on 'mailability' were strictly utilitarian,
not political. For example, the first law (1797) by which
Congress limited what could be mailed banned newspapers with wet
print because they damaged accompanying material. But politics
won. Prior to and during the Civil War, governments of both the
North and South banned just about anything they deemed to be
'seditious.' Private communication in America has never
recovered. Recent history is rife with purely political postal
measures such as the "Cunningham Amendment" (1962) which
restricted the circulation of communist literature that
originated in a foreign country.

The American government has always realized the political
importance of controlling the flow of information. In the 1770s,
communication occurred primarily through postal routes maintained
by horseback riders. Today, we communicate through packets of
data beamed across phone lines. This difference in the
transmission mode is irrelevant to the principle involved. The
key questions are, "who owns your words and ideas?" and "who has
the right to read them?"

On May 6, 1999, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that
federal restrictions on encryption violate the First Amendment:
specifically, they constitute prior restraint and may limit the
freedom of the press (Daniel J. Bernstein v. US Department of
Justice).  In the decision, Judge Betty Fletcher stated, "The
availability and use of secure encryption may…reclaim some
portion of the privacy we have lost. Government efforts to
control encryption thus may well implicate not only the First
Amendment rights…but also the constitutional rights of each of us
as potential recipients of encryption's bounty."

On September 16, the Clinton Administration sidestepped the court
ruling through a new policy. It now requires a one-time technical
review of encryption software as a precondition to permitting its
export. No limit on the cost or time of such a review was stated.
Then, on September 30, the government managed to convince the
Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals that the Bernstein case should be
reheard. The earlier decision was

The first part of this is from an F-4E pilot.  The pilot's name is Jerry
Driscoll, a River Rat.  In 1978, the Commandant of the USAF Survival
School was a former POW in Ho Lo Prison-the "Hanoi Hilton".  Dragged
from a stinking cesspit of a cell, cleaned, fed, and dressed  in clean PJs,
he
was ordered to describe for a visiting American "Peace Activist" the
"lenient and humane treatment" he'd received.  He spat at Ms. Fonda,  was
clubbed, and dragged away.  During the subsequent beating, he fell  forward
upon
the camp Commandant's feet, accidentally pulling the man's shoe off-which
sent that officer berserk. In '78, the AF Col still suffered from double
vision (which permanently ended
 his flying days) from the Vietnamese Col's frenzied application of wooden
baton.

From 1983-85, Col Larry Carrigan was the 347FW/DO (F-4Es). He spent 6
years in the "Hilton"-the first three of which he was "missing in
action". His wife lived on faith that he was still alive. His group, too,
got the
cleaned/fed/clothed routine in preparation for a "peace delegation"
visit. They, however, had time and devised a plan to get word to the world
that
they still survived.  Each man secreted a tiny piece of paper, with his
SSN on it, in the palm of his hand.  When paraded before Ms. Fonda and a
cameraman, she walked the line, shaking each man's hand and asking
little encouraging snippets like: "Aren't you sorry you bombed babies?" and
"Are you gratefulfor the humane treatment from your benevolent captors?"
Believing this HAD to be an act, they each palmed her their sliver of
paper. She took them all without missing a beat.  At the end of the line
and once the camera stopped rolling, to the shocked disbelief of the POWs,
she turned to the officer in charge...and handed him the little pile. Three
men died from the subsequent beatings.  Col Carrigan was almost number
four.

For years after their release, a group of determined former POWs
including Col Carrigan, tried to bring Ms. Fonda and others up on charges of
treason. I don't know that they used it, but the charge of "Negligent
Homicide
due to Depraved Indifference" would also seem appropriate.  Her obvious
"granting of aid and comfort to the enemy", alone, should've been
sufficient  for  the treason count. However, to date, Jane Fonda has
never been formally charged with anything and continues to enjoy the
privileged life of the rich and famous. I, personally, think that this is
shame on
us, the American Citizenry. Part of our shortfall is ignorance: most don't
know such actions ever took place. Thought you might appreciate the
knowledge. Most of you've probably already seen this by now.only
addition I
might add to these sentiments is to remember the satisfaction of relieving
myself into the  urinal at some airbase or another where "zaps" of Hanoi
Jane's
face had been applied.

 To whom it may concern:
 I was a civilian economic development advisor in Viet Nam, and was
captured by the North Vietnamese communists in South Viet Nam in 1968,
and held for over 5 years.  I spent 27 months in solitary confinement, one
year in a cage in Cambodia, and one year in a "black box" in Hanoi. My North
Vietnamese captors deliberately poisoned and murdered a female
missionary, a nurse in a leprosarium in Ban me Thuot, South Vietnam, whom I
buried in the  jungle near the Cambodian border.  At one time, I was weighing
approximately 90 lbs. (My normal weight is 170 lbs.) We were Jane
Fonda's "war criminals."   When Jane Fonda was in Hanoi,  I was asked by the
camp communist political officer if I would be willing to  meet with Jane
Fonda.
 I said yes, for I would like to tell her about the  real treatment we
POWs were receiving, which was far different from
 the treatment purported by the North Vietnamese, and parroted by Jane
Fonda, as "humane and lenient." Because of this, I spent three days on a
rocky floor on my knees with outstretched arms with a piece of steel
placed on my hands, and beaten with a bamboo cane every time my arms dipped.

 I had the opportunity to meet with Jane Fonda for a couple of hours
after I was released.  I asked her if she would be willing to debate me on
TV. She did not answer me, her former husband, Tom Hayden, answered  for
her. She was mind controlled by her husband.  This does not  exemplify
someone who should be honored as "100 Years of Great Women."  After I was
released, I was asked what I thought of Jane Fonda and the
 anti-war movement.  I said that I held Joan Baez's husband in very
high regard, for he thought the war was wrong, burned his draft card and
went to prison in protest.  If the other anti-war protesters took this same
route, it would have brought our judicial system to a halt and ended
the war much earlier, and there wouldn't be as many on that somber black
granite wall called the Vietnam Memorial.  This is democracy. This is the
American way. Jane Fonda, on the other hand, chose to be a traitor, and went

Hanoi, wore their

With my own previous post on the Osiris/Heaven and Isis/Earth

The "they" in this sentence refers to the Egyptians, not the Illuminati.
Read it as "what the relatively modern illuminati CLAIM the Egyptians
believed."

Occult scholars and Masons like Manly P. Hall are very fond of claiming that
the "truths" of Masonry have been passed on, unaltered, for millennia,
through the institutionalized belief systems they're promoting.
Unfortunately, scholars who are NOT seeking to advance the agenda of "secret
societies" find no evidence of speculative Freemasonry existing at all before
the early Renaissance, among Hermeticists, and no evidence of a Pike-style
"Luciferian" Freemasonry existing before the 17th Century, among the same
British Imperialist characters who brought us modern "occult politics" -- the
high priesthood of science, technocracy, capitalism-qua-feudalism, and by way
of the RIIA/CFR, the NWO.  The IDEAS involved may be old --they go back at
least as far as Plato, who was among those who freely "Greek-icized" the
concepts of older Near Eastern cultures in the service of their own
philosophical jingoism-- but it is a difficult task indeed to demonstrate
exactly how and when and through whom such ideas had any impact whatsoever on
the REAL-world politics and economics of the ten centuries
prior to the Templars and the fifteen centuries prior to organized elitist
Freemasonry.
Of course, you may respond that the total absence of historical evidence does
not in the least indicate the absence of "secret" political power but the
contrary --i.e., that their power was SO secret that it left no traces-- but,
on the same basis, I could argue that
homosexual anteaters from the planet Wazoo and their human minions have ruled
us SECRETLY since time immemorial and their agenda, here and there visible in
periodic upswings in the popularity of homosexuality among ruling elites,
should be obvious if only we string together bits and pieces of anomalous
data, using imagination liberally and accepting an unbroken continuity of
their activities through history on faith alone, "trust me."  Personally, I
refuse to give any credence to "secret societies" who WANT us to believe in
the omnipotence and omnipresence of "secret societies.  One might as well be
a propagandist in their service, even if one is "opposing" them, if their
ideas are being taken seriously, uncritically.  Let's please stick to facts
and narrow the scope of any argument to something realistic, closer to the
concrete historical record, which does indeed indicate the attempt of
--relatively modern-- "secret societies" to acquire REAL-world power over
humanity, and acquire it as much through our BELIEF in them --through
disinformation and propaganda-- as through more ordinary power-politics.

I'm not disputing anything you may say about Albert Pike's minority-Masonic
worldview (presented, for example, in the tome "Morals and Dogma") nor about
what some of his
precedessors in Masonry may have believed, or publicly CLAIMED to believe
(oh, so "secret societies" plainly tell us outsiders what their ESOTERIC
convictions are?) -- I would just like the arena narrowed somewhat, so we
don't have to face CONJECTURES
about "ancient" Freemasonry and "secret" Egyptian belief systems, which IMHO
only destroy the credibility of any argument AGAINST the values of sinister
occult groups.

In my post I tried to make the necessary distinction between Egyptian
myth/religion as recorded by the Egyptians themselves (e.g., in tombs which
non-believing outsiders were not expected to penetrate) and your accounting
of what Freemasons of the Pike stripe SAY the Egyptians "secretly" believed,
so each framework can be examined and judged separately, on its own merits,
not mixing the two together as if the latter were based on sounder evidence
than the former.  Proceed with your argument, by all means.
As I see it, it doesn't MATTER what the ancient Egyptians REALLY believed --
the main subject here is what (some) Freemasons/Illuminati TELL US the
Egyptians "secretly" believed, and that is sufficient for the purpose of your
argument, which has its OWN points to make.  For the sake of argument, let's
even ASSUME that what these groups
tell us is based on the truth -- but let's make it clear that this is just an
ASSUMPTION.

[CTRL] Abductions/Domestic Violence/Child Abuse Allegations

1999-10-25 Thread Fred R. Saluga

 -Caveat Lector-

I have been conducting research on UFO's and law enforcement for about 5
months now and have found something I find very interesting.

I have sent out numerous e-mails and also regular mail on this research
and received many interesting replies on the alien abduction question. Many
people state that they would not discuss this abduction and possible bruises
or marks with anyone for fear of law enforcement coming to their home on a
domestic violence complaint. This is also true with children, as they state
that they would not even let their child attend school because they would be
visited by the local Child Abuse Agency and they would have to explain the
marks and when they could not, they would be charged with child abuse and
have their children taken away.

I find these replies very interesting and would appreciate any feedback I
could get on the above and any information as to if this ever did happen.

I would also appreciate any information on the government experimenting
on children without the knowledge of their parents or with knowledge of their
parents, that could be considered to be child abuse.

I would like to thank you in advance for your time and cooperation
regarding the above request and all information forwarded will be deeply
appreciated. If you do not want to reply by e-mail, I have my address at the
end of this e-mail and please mail this information to me, no names or

Subject: LOOP:  Try to Understand This
From: REDACTED BY REQUEST

Dear List Members--

While reading through the CGA post, I took note of this from the
minutes highlights:

- Another purpose of CGA is to provide funds for McClain County,
GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES AND PRIVATE ENTERPRISES, AGENCIES AND CITIZENS
to go towards low- to moderate -income housing.  (Page 4, (6).)

It made me think of many things.  I'll try to explain my concerns.

Oklahoma may be about to change its traditional roadbuilding tune.
Politically, the tide is turning rapidly against road building in
rural areas ... all the anti-urban sprawl stuff.  All of these things
seem to weigh favorably in terms of protecting our properties... OR DO
THEY??

There is a political trap here, and one to be considered carefully.
The problems are so huge and the plan so big that it will take divine
intervention to circumvent it.

This whole thing all goes back to the Biodiversity Treaty hacked out
at the Rio Earth Summit in 1992.  The overall big objective ultimately
(according to their own documents) was to have areas populated by
humans and areas populated by animals and vegetation -- with human
areas connected by arterial roads where travel could be monitored and
controlled, surrounded by what are called "biodiversity corridors,"
which are the natural areas into which humankind cannot venture -- at
least, not without permission -- so that the flora and fauna are
"protected".  All for a very good reason, of course.

The main implementation plans for the objectives of the Biodiversity
Treaty are contained in a document called United Nations Agenda 21.
And throughout all of the civilized world, you will now find cities
and countries (particularly in Europe and South America) implementing
the plan under what is called "Local Agenda 21."  Do a search engine
look at just "Agenda 21" and about 150,000 links will be checkable,
many in foreign languages, putting the objectives in place around the
world.  It really is an amazing thing to see the same words, the same
plan, the same "good reasons" being touted everywhere... everyone
mindlessly reading from the same script.  Truly freaky!

In the United States, some communities are actually using the term
"Local Agenda 21," but more often you will hear their plans referred
to as an "anti-urban sprawl" program, or "green belt development."
And it is going to be the big dividing issue politically very quickly.


The green belt advocates want the parameters of existing cities to be
established by new zoning ordinances (based on federal zoning
"suggestions") so that no new commercial, residential or industrial
development can occur outside a certain boundary. This would mean that
revitalization of crumbling inner cities and so forth would have to
occur, new housing would have to be "figured out" within those city
boundaries, and space now "wrongly" used would be given new
"opportunities" to serve the public.

There are BOTH good and bad things about such planning.  But anything
that abbrogates personal liberty and freedom of choice is going to be
on my "no way" list.

The way these objectives are publicly motivated is first by inspiring
a fear of the death of the planet from pollution and species
extinction, etc.; and second, by worship of the planet (Gaianism) to
be used as a means of unifying diverse groups in a like effort.  In
some parts of the world (such as Nicaragua), some biodiversity
corridors are already in place, being guarded and "protected" from the
big bad humans.  It is a process already being tested.  Australia is

[CTRL] Hemp can Prevent Extreme Climate Changes Forecast

1999-10-25 Thread David Crockett Williams

 -Caveat Lector-

One of the most serious environmental emergencies of these times is the
increasingly devastating weather patterns and storms associated with global
warming due to the greenhouse effect and ozone layer depletion, both of
which are exacerbated by combustion of oxygen by fossil fuels and the
deforestation of trees that otherwise produce oxygen thus decreasing
atmospheric O2/CO2 ratio.  Some computer models predict destruction of all
oceanic phytoplankton (over half of our current oxygen supply) by the year
2008 from increased solar irradiation due to continuing ozone layer
depletion.  http://www.projectearth.com

The number one priority for solving this problem is how to rapidly regreen
the planet and save the remaining trees to rebalance the atmospheric O2/CO2
ratio.

This means industrial hemp re-legalization, and a global scale environmental
emergency "Hemp for Victory" crash program to grow this most bioefficient
crop everywhere possible as soon as possible.  We need a 180 degree turn in
US and international hemp/cannabis policies, not only for relegalization of
industrial hemp but for an all out effort to grow it everywhere possible
quickly to save the atmosphere and ameliorate weather disasters associated
with global warming.  http://www.angelfire.com/on/GEAR2000/gear.html

COMING CLIMATE CHANGE COULD BE EXTREME, EXPERTS SAY

From the Global Situation Report, edited by Michael Lindemann
Vol.1 No.20 - Oct. 25, 1999 - Part 1

Two separate studies announced last week, one from the University of
Colorado
at Boulder and the other from the Worldwide Fund for Nature (WWF) in
cooperation with the University of East Anglia, UK, both offered serious
warnings of climate change ahead. Another scientific report released in
London on October 18 by the UK National Weather Service modeled future
climate as if atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide were stabilized,
rather than climbing precipitously as at present, intending to show that
serious, coordinated global action to fight climate change can still have
good results. But action must be swift and aggressive, the authors said.

And in related news, NASA scientists announced on October 21 that they had
gathered strong evidence indicating the return of the mid-Pacific ocean
condition called La Nina, which "will have a powerful impact on the weather
system" this winter, according to oceanographer William Patzert of the Jet
Propulsion Laboratory.

In the University of Colorado study, announced October 21, scientists
studied
sediments from the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean and found evidence of very
large and rapid shifts in temperature during the ice age period between
30,000 and 60,000 years ago. Scott Lehman, a research associate at
CU-Boulder's Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research, said the study
indicated the temperature of the Sargasso Sea between the West Indies and
the
Azores fluctuated repeatedly by up to 9 degrees Fahrenheit.

Climate records and models indicate that changes in warm ocean temperatures
are likely to produce widespread, global climate impacts. "The temperature
of
the warm ocean realm regulates the water vapor content of the atmosphere and
its greenhouse capacity," Lehman said. Climate models suggest that ocean
circulation changes of the kind that caused huge temperature fluctuations
millennia ago could be triggered by current human activity.

"The impact of possible future circulation changes may be more dramatic and
widespread than suspected," Lehman said. His research appears in a paper
co-written with Julian Sachs of Columbia University's Barnard College,
published in the Oct. 22 issue of the journal Science.

Lehman and Sachs reached their conclusions after studying 50 meters of
sediment cores hauled up from several miles deep in the Sargasso Sea near
Bermuda by French scientists as part of an international project.

"The warming at the end of the last ice age about 10,000 years ago was
supported by the disappearance of enormous ice sheets, a one-third increase
in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels and changes in the seasonal
distribution
of the sun's energy," Lehman said. "But the abrupt changes we documented
during the last ice age seem to be almost entirely ocean driven."

 The first part of this is from an F-4E pilot.  The pilot's name is Jerry
 Driscoll, a River Rat.  In 1978, the Commandant of the USAF Survival
 School was a former POW in Ho Lo Prison-the "Hanoi Hilton".  Dragged
 from a stinking cesspit of a cell, cleaned, fed, and dressed  in clean PJs,
 he
 was ordered to describe for a visiting American "Peace Activist" the
 "lenient and humane treatment" he'd received.  He spat at Ms. Fonda,  was
 clubbed, and dragged away.  During the subsequent beating, he fell  forward
 upon
 the camp Commandant's feet, accidentally pulling the man's shoe off-which
 sent that officer berserk. In '78, the AF Col still suffered from double
 vision (which permanently ended
  his flying days) from the Vietnamese Col's frenzied application of wooden
 baton.

 From 1983-85, Col Larry Carrigan was the 347FW/DO (F-4Es). He spent 6
 years in the "Hilton"-the first three of which he was "missing in
 action". His wife lived on faith that he was still alive. His group, too,
 got the
 cleaned/fed/clothed routine in preparation for a "peace delegation"
 visit. They, however, had time and devised a plan to get word to the world
 that
 they still survived.  Each man secreted a tiny piece of paper, with his
 SSN on it, in the palm of his hand.  When paraded before Ms. Fonda and a
 cameraman, she walked the line, shaking each man's hand and asking
 little encouraging snippets like: "Aren't you sorry you bombed babies?" and
 "Are you gratefulfor the humane treatment from your benevolent captors?"
 Believing this HAD to be an act, they each palmed her their sliver of
 paper. She took them all without missing a beat.  At the end of the line
 and once the camera stopped rolling, to the shocked disbelief of the POWs,
 she turned to the officer in charge...and handed him the little pile. Three
 men died from the subsequent beatings.  Col Carrigan was almost number
 four.

 For years after their release, a group of determined former POWs
 including Col Carrigan, tried to bring Ms. Fonda and others up on charges of
 treason. I don't know that they used it, but the charge of "Negligent
 Homicide
 due to Depraved Indifference" would also seem appropriate.  Her obvious
 "granting of aid and comfort to the enemy", alone, should've been
 sufficient  for  the treason count. However, to date, Jane Fonda has
 never been formally charged with anything and continues to enjoy the
 privileged life of the rich and famous. I, personally, think that this is
 shame on
 us, the American Citizenry. Part of our shortfall is ignorance: most don't
 know such actions ever took place. Thought you might appreciate the
 knowledge. Most of you've probably already seen this by now.only
 addition I
 might add to these sentiments is to remember the satisfaction of relieving
 myself into the  urinal at some airbase or another where "zaps" of Hanoi
 Jane's
 face had been applied.

  To whom it may concern:
  I was a civilian economic development advisor in Viet Nam, and was
 captured by the North Vietnamese communists in South Viet Nam in 1968,
 and held for over 5 years.  I spent 27 months in solitary confinement, one
 year in a cage in Cambodia, and one year in a "black box" in Hanoi. My North
 Vietnamese captors deliberately poisoned and murdered a female
 missionary, a nurse in a leprosarium in Ban me Thuot, South Vietnam, whom I
 buried in the  jungle near the Cambodian border.  At one time, I was weighing
 approximately 90 lbs. (My normal weight is 170 lbs.) We were Jane
 Fonda's "war criminals."   When Jane Fonda was in Hanoi,  I was asked by the
 camp communist political officer if I would be willing to  meet with Jane
 Fonda.
  I said yes, for I would like to tell her about the  real treatment we
 POWs were receiving, which was far different from
  the treatment purported by the North Vietnamese, and parroted by Jane
 Fonda, as "humane and lenient." Because of this, I spent three days on a
 rocky floor on my knees with outstretched arms with a piece of steel
 placed on my hands, and beaten with a bamboo cane every time my arms dipped.

  I had the opportunity to meet with Jane Fonda for a couple of hours
 after I was released.  I asked her if she would be willing to debate me on
 TV. She did not answer me, her former husband, Tom Hayden, answered  for
 her. She was mind controlled by her husband.  This does not  exemplify
 someone who should be honored as "100 Years of Great Women."  After I was
 released, I was asked what I thought of Jane Fonda and the
  anti-war movement.  I said that I held Joan Baez's husband in very
 high regard, for he thought the war was wrong, burned his draft card and
 went to prison in protest.  If the other anti-war protesters took this same
 route, it would have brought our judicial system to a halt and ended
 the war much earlier, and there wouldn't be as many on that somber black
 granite wall called the Vietnam Memorial.  This is

Major UK Grocery Chain
 Bans Aspartame Over
Brain Tumor Concerns
  By Dominic Rushe
 The Sunday Times (London)
http://www.sunday-times.co.uk
  10-25-99



   ICELAND, the grocer, will announce this week that it is banning
   aspartame, the artificial sweetener better known as NutraSweet,
   from its own-label foods.

   The move follows growing concern among consumers about a
   possible link between the sweetener and brain tumours. Aspartame
   is consumed by 250m people worldwide and has been used in
   low-calorie food and drinks such as Diet Coke for 20 years.

   But in recent years there have been increasing fears about possible
   health risks. The compound has been linked to multiple sclerosis
   and even Gulf war syndrome.

   These worries, spread on the internet, are hotly disputed by
   NutraSweet's owner, Monsanto, the GM (genetically modified) food
   giant.

   Iceland will become the first national grocers' chain to impose a
   ban
   and the move will be closely watched by its larger rivals.
   Iceland is
   trying to reposition itself as a "green" grocer and has already
   banned
   other artificial colours and flavourings from its own goods.

   Malcolm Walker, Iceland's chairman, was the first grocer to ban
   GM foods and coined the term "Frankenstein foods". The move will
   spark a full- scale row between the grocery chain and Monsanto.

   A NutraSweet spokeswoman said: "Iceland is spreading alarm when
   it should be reassuring customers. The web has become a real
   problem [and ] there is a lot of misinformation about."

   An Iceland executive said that the company will tell staff tomorrow
   that it will no longer supply food with aspartame under its own label
   and will be switching to other artificial sweeteners. The company

   will continue to sell branded products that contain NutraSweet such
   as Diet Coke.

   The grocer's executives recently held talks with the International
   Sweeteners Association, which represents the multi-billion-pound
   industry. But despite being given assurances that NutraSweet was
   perfectly safe, Iceland decided to impose a ban.

   King's College, London, is conducting a three-year study to establish
   whether there is a link between aspartame and brain tumours.
   Reports in America have found conflicting evidence of a link. There,
   20 billion cans of soft drink are consumed each year, most
   containing NutraSweet.

   Bill Wadsworth, Iceland's technical director,said a full-scale
   ban was
   being considered. "We are taking the matter seriously because of the
   weight of customer pressure we are coming under."

   Monsanto is in the process of selling its sweetener division.Protests
   from consumers and environmental groups in Europe - many
   debating the issue on the internet - have hurt the company's growth
   prospects and its stock market value has plummeted.

   Wadsworth said: "Clearly the internet is playing a major role
   bringing this debate to public attention."

 What message is ultimately sent by this movie?

 Is this movie to be interpreted as fact, fiction or something in-
 between by Christians?

 I've overheard several conversations from people that have seen the
 movie that now appear to be incorporating the theory of the "Bible
 Code" as "gospel" into their personal belief systems.

 The wholesale marketing by several religious groups, going so far as to
 buy tickets for their youth groups, reinforces this.

ACTION ALERT:  U.S. Media Overlook Expose on Chinese Embassy Bombing

October 22, 1999

A detailed investigative article in the October 17 London Observer
reported that NATO deliberately bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade
last May, after discovering that the embassy was relaying Yugoslav
military radio signals.

The report contradicted the public assurances of NATO leaders that the
missile attack had been an accident. The Observer's sources included "a
flight controller operating in Naples, an intelligence officer monitoring
Yugoslav radio traffic from Macedonia and a senior [NATO] headquarters
officer in Brussels."

So far, the reaction in the mainstream U.S. media has been a deafening
silence. To date, none of America's three major network evening news
programs has mentioned the Observer's findings.  Neither has the New York
Times or USA Today, even though the story was covered by AP, Reuters and
other major wires. The Washington Post relegated the story to a 90-word
news brief in its "World Briefing" (10/18/99), under the headline "NATO
Denies Story on Embassy Bombing."

By contrast, the story appeared in England not only in the Observer and
its sister paper, the Guardian (10/17/99), but also in their leading
rival, the Times of London, which ran a follow-up article on the official
reaction the next day (10/18/99). The Globe and Mail, Canada's most
prestigious paper, ran the full Reuters account prominently in its
international section (10/18/99). So did the Times of India, the Sydney
Morning Herald and the Irish Times (all 10/18/99).  The prominent Danish
daily Politiken, which collaborated with the Observer on the
investigation, was on strike, but ran the story on its website.

The difference in perspective with which American journalists have greeted
this story can be observed by comparing the headlines over several
international news agencies' dispatches about the Observer expose:

Reuters (U.K.): "NATO Bombed Chinese Embassy Deliberately--UK Paper"
(10/18/99).

Agence France Presse (France): "NATO Bombed Chinese Embassy Deliberately:
Report" (10/18/99).

Deutche Presse-Agentur (Germany): "NATO Bombed Chinese Embassy
Deliberately, Observer Claims" (10/18/99).

Associated Press (U.S.):  "NATO Denies Deliberate Embassy Hit."

The U.S. media may today be uninterested in evidence that the attack was
deliberate, but they had no trouble last May accepting NATO's explanation
that the bombing was a mistake. Even before U.S. officials emerged with a
full account of how the embassy could have been "mistakenly" targeted--an
"outdated map" of Belgrade played a prominent role in the official
explanation--the U.S. media began regularly referring, without evidence,
to the "accidental bombing" of the embassy.

When Chinese officials disputed the U.S. account, protesting that the
attack could not have been a mistake, establishment journalists
immediately took sides in this debate. New York Times diplomatic
correspondent Jane Perlez (5/10/99) referred to "the accidental bombing,
portrayed in China as deliberate." A Washington Post editorial (5/17/99)
that discussed China's reaction to "NATO's unintentional bombing of
China's embassy" was indignant that the official Chinese press was
"milking the bombing for propaganda value" by reporting that the missile
strike had been intentional. USA Today continues to refer to the
"accidental bombing" of the embassy (10/20/99).

Since the New York Times hasn't published the new information about the
embassy attack, it's unclear whether the paper stands by its earlier
reporting. Since May 7, the Times has referred to the "accidental bombing
of the Chinese embassy" a total of 20 times. The last reference was in its
October 17 edition--the day the Observer published its report. Since then,
the Times has run an AP article on the Chinese president's visit to London
(10/19/99), which mentioned only that "China broke off talks with
Washington and the European Union after NATO bombed the Chinese embassy in
Yugoslavia"--taking no stand on the intention behind the attack.

Even before the Observer's expose, there was no lack of evidence that
China's suspicions were correct. A few days after the bombing, German
Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder took the highly unusual step of publicly
questioning NATO's explanation of the attack. "The explanation given by
NATO on the tragic incident so far is far from enough and the Chinese
government has every reason to demand a comprehensive, thorough, and
in-depth investigation into the incident  and affix the responsibility for
it," Schroeder said in Beijing (AFP, 5/12/99).

The London Daily Telegraph reported in June (6/27/99) that NATO's
precision-guided missiles "carefully singled out the most sensitive
section of the embassy complex for

BEHIND THE BUDGET BATTLES:
PROBING BASIC ASSUMPTIONS

WASHINGTON -- While the White House and Congress struggle over the federal
budget, some policy analysts are questioning key assumptions in the
debate. Sociologist Abby Scher and economist Jared Bernstein are available
for interviews to discuss underlying issues:

ABBY SCHER, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.dollarsandsense.org
"Since the late 1970s, Congress has directed more of the federal budget
away from social investment," Scher says. "The 1997 budget caps and
current negotiations are only accelerating that trend. Corporations,
meanwhile, will continue to receive their welfare payments in this
budget." Scher is co-editor of Dollars and Sense magazine.

JARED BERNSTEIN, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.epinet.org
"In an ideal world, the debate over the federal budget would be an
opportunity to rationally discuss national priorities," said Bernstein, a
labor economist at the Economic Policy Institute. "Even in less partisan
times, it would be naive to hope for such an ideal scenario. But the
contemporary budget debate occurring in Washington seems to me to be
particularly distorted."

Bernstein, a former deputy chief economist at the U.S. Department of
Labor, said: "Both sides are trying to adhere to budget caps agreed upon
in earlier years, when the Congress and the administration wanted to
display their fiscal rectitude. But they don't really want to lower
spending, which is why they're using every trick in the book (and some
inventive new tricks) to appear to do so. The most egregious example is
labeling spending for the 2000 Census (an obligation called for in the
Constitution) as an 'emergency.' When the debate hits this level of
absurdity, we are as far from the aforementioned ideal as we can get."

Bernstein added: "In my view, and polls suggest that many Americans agree,
Congress and the administration should redefine 'responsible budgeting.'
This doesn't mean adhering to budget caps that have no economic rationale;
it means spending the resources necessary to meet the challenges still
facing us. Despite the booming economy, there are still 34.5 million poor
persons in America, 13.5 million of whom are children, and 13.9 million of
whom have incomes less than half the poverty line, meaning they live in
dire conditions. We are still underinvested in public infrastructure,
devoting an historically small share of our resources to both physical
(roads, schools, airports) and human (education, training, and basic
scientific research) capital investment. That these needs exist over a
period of full employment, when GDP and private investment are growing
apace, tells us that the private sector cannot be counted on to solve the
problem. Instead of hiding behind false promises, the federal government
should address these issues through the budget process."

This is quite amazing..Well if it were true...??

Peter
From another poster not me ok...

Anyone who has the book God of Eden by William Bramley should dig it out and
read or reread Chapter 18, The Black Death starting on page 179.  This book
was published in 1989, years before the Chemtrails.  There are places in
that chapter that sound like they could have been written today.  Below are
a few quotes, enough to give you an idea of the parallels between the middle
age plagues and whats happening today with the Chemtrails.

The Black Death began in Asia and soon spread to Europe where it killed well
over 25 million people (about one third of Europe's total population) in
less than four years.  Some historians put the casualty figure closer to 35
to 40 million people, or about half of all Europeans

Two types of plague are believed to have caused the Black Death.  The first
is the "bubonic" type, which was the most common.  The bubonic form of
plague is characterized by swellings of the lymph nodes: the swellings are
called "buboes,"  The buboes are accompanied by vomiting, fever and
death This form of plague is not contagious between human
beings;  it requires an active carrier, such as a flea.  For this reason,
many historians believe that flea-infested rodents caused the Bubonic
Plague...

The second form of plague contributing to the Black Death is a highly
contagious type known as "pneumonic" plague.  It is marked by shivering,
rapid breathing and the coughing up of blood...  This second
type of plague is nearly always fatal and transmits best in cold weather and
in poor ventilation.  Some physicians today believe it was this second form,
the "pneumonic" plague, which was responsible for most of the casualties of
the Black Death because of the crowding and poor hygienic conditions then
prevalent in Europe.

We would normally shake our heads at this tragic period of human history and
be thankful that modern medicine has developed cures for these dread
diseases.  However, troubling enigmas about the Black Death still linger.
Many outbreaks occurred in summer during warm weather in uncrowded regions.
Not all outbreaks of bubonic plague were preceded by rodent infestation; in
fact, only a minority of cases seemed to be related to an increase in the
presence of vermin.  The greatest puzzle about the Black Death is how it was
able to strike isolated human populations which had no contact with earlier
infected areas.  The epidemics also tended to end abruptly...

A great many people throughout Europe and other Plague stricken regions of
the world were reporting that outbreaks of the Plague were caused by
foul-smelling "mists".  Those mists frequently appeared after unusually
bright lights in the sky.  The historian quickly discovers that "mists" were
reported far more frequently and in many more locations than were rodent
infestations.  The Plague years were, in fact, a period of heavy UFO
activity.

What, then, were the mysterious mists?  There is another very important way
in which plague germs can be transmitted; through germ weapons.  The US and
the Soviet Union today have stockpiles of biological weapons containing
bubonic plague and other epidemic diseases.  The germs are kept alive in
canisters which spray the diseases into the air on thick, often visible,
artificial mists.  Anyone breathing in the mist will inhale the disease.
There are enough such germ weapons today to wipe out a good portion of
humanity.  Reports of identical disease-inducing mists from the Plague years
strongly suggest that the Black Death was caused by germ warfare.  Let us
take a look at the incredible reports which lead to that conclusion.

The first outbreak of the Plague in Europe followed an unusual series of
events.  Between 1298 and 1314, seven large "comets" were seem over Europe;
one was of "awe-inspiring blackness." .. To the people of
Europe, these sightings were considered omens of the Plague which soon
followed.

It is true that some reported "comets" were probably just that;
comets..  On the other hand it is important to note that almost any
unusual object in the sky was called a "comet." .  This leads us
to wonder how many other ancient "comets" were actually similar rocketlike
objects.  When we are confronted with an old report of a comet, we therefore
do not really know what kind of thing we are dealing with unless there is a
fuller description.  A report of a sudden increase in "comets" or similar
celestial phenomena may, in fact, mean an increase in UFO activity.

To the Officials of Brown County, Illinois:

I certify under penalty of perjury that the information provided in Dr.
Hulda Clark’s  “Cure for All Diseases” helped my to cure chronic candidiasis
from which I had suffered severe symptoms for over a year. Medical treatment
had NOT helped, I was in severe pain for hours every day.

The book provided NO medical recommendations; just information which was of
value to me in treating this condition in myself, which was untreatable by
allopathic medicine.

(signed)  Dave Hartley, October 25, 1999

In addition to the foregoing certification, I would like to state that I
have shared  Hulda Clark’s information with many others who have also gotten
benefits from personally investigating and acting on the information in this
and other’s in the series of Hulda Clark’s books, which are well-known and
well respected as investigatory works.

I and a large percentage of the people that I know are becoming increasingly
angry with governmental malfeasance in health care.

The government must CEASE the SUPPRESSION of alternatives to the politically
powerful and well-connected pharmaceutical industry. We are WELL AWARE of
the vast sums of money at stake.

We are NOT in sympathy with the medical industry’s loss of market share as
greater numbers of us awaken to the fact that IATROGENESIS has become a
leading cause of DEATH in the U.S.

Political power and the selling-out of the health and welfare of U.S.
citizens will not continue to be “business-as-usual.”

We are aware that the District Attorney is married to the original
prosecutor in this case, and that the ENTIRE CASE appears to be built upon
entrapment.

We INSIST that the JURY be FULLY INFORMED as to their rights and
reponsibilities to judge not only the facts, but the LAW ITSELF.
Details of the Constitutional basis in LAW on rights and duties of juries
may be found on the internet at:
http://www.drtavel.com/1-bJRP.htm , where you may also find an Amicus Curae
brief which was previously filed in the State of Indiana.

The PEOPLE are becoming angered by the cronyism evidenced between the FDA
and firms such as Monsanto, Searle, and others- evidence of collusion and
falsification of legal documents and test results lead me (as one voice for
MANY) to DEMAND an end to the reign-of-terror of FDA, and END to the fraud,
an END to the collusion and conspiracy to suppress alternative medicine.

We are aware of “special” relationships between many firms and the
government; we are aware that the government has used it’s ECHELON
spy-network and it’s punitive political TRADE-WAR “sanctions” against Europe
to attempt to blackmail the European common market into allowing Monsanto’s
FrankenFoods ™ free reign in Europe, even though European government and
consumers have NO DESIRE for these untested and apparently ill-conceived and
dangerous products.

The PEOPLE are not as stupid as the government may think- we have SEEN this
suppressive conspiracy in action before- we have SEEN the political movement
against homeopathy; against chiropractic, and against chiropractic’s
forbear: manipulative (NON-drug, NON-surgery) osteopathy.

It is NOT the government’s place to forbid the PEOPLE from using alternative
health care as they see fit- nor to attempt to SUPPRESS the very fact of
existence of alternatives by terrorizing and jailing authors and journalists
who write about them. We do NOT wish for the government to ILLEGALIZE folk
remedies, or herbs, or ANY OTHER alternatives which WE THE PEOPLE may wish
to use in place of the increasingly expensive, unpredictable and dangerous
pharmaceuticals which are rubber-stamped by the definitively corrupt FDA.

The WAR on the PEOPLE carried on by the pharmaceutical industry MUST STOP!
“War on Cancer” is a merely a euphemism for “battle for greater profits.”
In TWENTY YEARS of “war on cancer” NOTHING has changed except for the
ever-increasing PROFITS of the cancer industry… oh- yes- and the GREATER
incidence of cancer! It is LONG PAST time for the pharmaceutical medical
racket to cease poisoning and radiation-burning people who could potentially
be CURED by one of the MANY treatments which they have colluded and
conspired with the government and others to suppress!

Hulda Clark belongs to the PEOPLE; of the U.S. – of the WORLD.
She has many supporters, worldwide- ALL of us recognize this as an act of
suppression- as a crime against humanity- as a political crime.
Please consider your duty to your fellowman, and do not act on behalf of
special interest groups and political cronyism (or NEPOTISM) !

 Your current TV ad campaign is deplorable. Superimposing Pope John
Paul II's face on someone else's body, in a room crowded with scandalous
politicians and sinful celebrities, is the wrong way to go.
 Unless, of course, Salon.com wants to turn people away and lose
readership.

 Sure, the ad got me to write this letter. But, at what cost? By airing
a blasphemous commercial, "the
 hatchet of the Left" Salon.com showed its true colors.  The Left's
utter disrespect for religion is written all over your ad.

 Your TV ad lacks any sense of creativity. If anything, it's a turn
off.  Plainly put, folks, your TV ad is a sad commentary on the lack of
values and ethics that is characteristic of a wretched and shoddy
 excuse of online journalism.

 By this letter, I'm requesting that you pull your TV ad campaign
immediately.  Otherwise, you not only
 continue to disrespect yourselves, but the millions of people who
consider the Pope a sacred religious
 leader who has nothing to do with Salon.com whatsoever but everything
to do with what's good and
