 Recharging of oil and gas fields.

   Thomas Gold -- September 1999

-

 There have been numerous reports in recent times, of oil and gas
 fields not running out at the expected time, but instead showing a
 higher content of hydrocarbons after they had already produced more
 than the initially estimated amount. This has been seen in the
 Middle East, in the deep gas wells of Oklahoma, on the Gulf of
 Mexico coast, and in other places. It is this apparent refilling
 during production that has been responsible for the series of gross
 underestimate of reserves that have been published time and again,
 the most memorable being the one in the early seventies that firmly
 predicted the end of oil and gas globally by 1987, a prediction
 which produced an energy crisis and with that a huge shift in the
 wealth of nations. Refilling is an item of the greatest economic
 significance, and also a key to understanding what the sources of
 all this petroleum had been. It is also of practical engineering
 importance, since we may be able to exercise some control over the
 refilling process.

 The debate about the origin of all the petroleum on Earth lies in
 the center of the subject. If we really knew that it is only
 biological materials, which, in their decay, could produce
 hydrocarbons, then the quanities that could ever be produced would
 be limited by the biological content of the sediments. But then the
 clear and strong association of petroleum with the inert gas helium
 would have no explanation; the finding of hydrocarbon gases,
 liquids and solids on most other planetary bodies in our solar
 system which have surface conditions quite unsuitable for surface
 life, could not be understood; the presence of hydrocarbons which
 we now find in abundance in basement rocks would also remained
 unexplained.

 If we accept the fact, now known full well, that hydrocarbons are a
 common constituent of the cosmos and the planetary condensations
 that formed in it, then we have a totally different viewpoint.
 Hydrocarbons are stable down to great depths and the high
 temperatures there, contrary to many statements that have been made
 that the temperature reached at depths between 30,000 and 40,000 ft
 would dissociate most of the hydrocarbons. But these calculations
 are seriously in error, because they ignored the strong stabilizing
 effect of pressure at depth, that had been calculated by Soviet
 (Ukrainian and Russian) thermodynamicists.

 The existence of diamonds, crystals of pure carbon that form at
 pressures which are not reached on earth at depths of less than 140
 kilometers, proves that unoxidized carbon exists at such depths,
 and also carbon-bearing liquids must flow there that can deposit
 carbon at high purity. High pressure fluid inclusions in diamonds
 prove that liquid or gaseous hydrocarbons were present at their
 formation. Present day meteorites give us examples of the solids
 responsible for the building up of the Earth; among those only one
 class, the carbonaceous chondrites, contain much carbon, mostly in
 unoxidized form. That this material is present in the Earth's
 interior in large abundance is shown by the distribution of noble
 gases and their isotopes that have emerged into our atmosphere and
 show distributions that are strikingly similar to those in
 carbonaceous chondrites, but dissimilar to those of any other class
 of meteorites. The presence of this type of material would account
 for a continuous supply of hydrocarbons to the atmosphere, as the
 outer layers of the mantle heat up over time and make fluids form
 from the solid hydrocarbons that were included in the forming Earth
 (as also in most of the other planets and their satellites, in the
 asteroids, comets and interplanetary dust grains). Such fluids are
 less dense than the rocks, and buoyancy forces will propel them
 upwards.

 Rocks and lower density fluids can co-exist at any level in a solid
 planetary body, provided that the pressure of the pore fluids is
 sufficiently high to make the differential pressure between rocks
 and fluids less than the crushing strength of the rocks. For a
 static case (with no upward flow of the fluid), this would result
 in pressure domains, within which the fluid pressure shows a
 pressure gradient with depth given just by the density of the fluid
 (the "head"), and where the bottom of each domain is at the level
 at which the fluid pressure is insufficient to maintain pore spaces
 against the higher pressure of the rock. (See Figure 1.) It is
 assumed here (for the static case) that this makes a complete
 barrier. As for the top of any domain, this cannot be at a level
 higher than that at which

 California dentist accused of pulling wrong boy's teeth

 By WAYNE WILSON

 AUBURN, Calif. (March 19, 2000 1:41 p.m. EST
 http://www.nandotimes.com) -- The 8-year-old boy didn't have an
 appointment. He had simply accompanied his teen sisters to a
 dental complex and was passing time in the play area when an
 employee approached and called his name.

 According to a lawsuit filed last week in Placer County
 Superior Court, the child then was led to a dental chair,
 injected with Novocain, X-rayed and subjected to the removal of
 two front teeth by a dentist, allegedly because he had been
 "confused ... with another little boy."

 "No adult was consulted prior to the medical procedure and
 no consent was given to ... conduct any procedure" on the
 8-year-old, the lawsuit states.

 William Brown of Roseville, Calif., the father of the boy,
 filed suit on behalf of his son, accusing dentist Richard A.
 Smith of professional and general negligence, battery and
 intentional infliction of emotional distress.

 Smith, contacted Friday at his office in Roseville,
 acknowledged that a mistake had been made. "Basically,
 it was an error in names," he said.

 There were two boys there with the same name, he explained, and
 the Brown boy "got up and came back" with his assistant when
 she called for the other child. "Basically, we assumed we had
 the right boy. It was just a basic mix-up -- an error on my
 part for not making sure the right patient was in the chair."

 Both teeth removed were deciduous, or "baby teeth," and the boy
 would have lost them eventually, Smith said.

 But Mary K. Driscoll, an attorney for the boy, said the
 premature removal of the teeth has forced the boy to wear
 braces two years early.

 And the lawsuit alleges that the boy suffered "extreme mental
 anguish and physical pain" as well as "grief, fright, anxiety
 and humiliation."

 Driscoll said the boy accompanied his teen sisters to the
 dental office Aug. 5, 1999, and while his older sister was
 helping his younger sister through an orthodontic appointment
 next door, he found his way to the office complex's children's
 play area.

 When Smith's assistant called his name, "he did what the adults
 told him to do," Driscoll said.

 It wasn't until he emerged from the back room, crying and
 without two front teeth, that the mistake was discovered,
 Driscoll said.

for them to compel you to enumerate what weapons you own or what
illicit substances you consume and pretend that this would not be a

1. Analysis of Census Documents Indicate OMB Anomalies - ALL Long Forms
Are For Puerto Rico ONLY
---
--

Regarding the Census: The long form is NOT required to be filled out AT
ALL, at least not by people residing outside PUERTO RICO. Proof: 1. The
form number for the long form (at least the one I have which was sent
to an address in ALABAMA) is "Form D-2(UL)". The title of the form is
"United States Census 2000". 2. The form states at the top: "This is
the official form for all the people at this address. It is quick and
easy and your answers are protected by law" Note that this means
that if THIS FORM is not valid and the above language is correct, there
is NO FORM for conducting the census for the people living at the
address contained on the form. 3. At the bottom right of the front page
of the long form is written "OMB No. 0607-0856: Approval expires
12/31/2000". 4. On the bottom of page 2 of Form D-2(UL) it states that
"The Census Bureau estimates that, for the average household, this form
will take about 38 minutes to complete" That doesn't sound very
quick, but then exactly what form or part of the form are they talking
about? 5. The next paragraph on Page 2 (a single sentence) is the key:
"Respondents are not required to respond to any information collection
unless it displays a valid approval number from the Office of
Management and Budget." I went to the official OMB site and looked up
the OMB number, 0607-0856.

 The site is: http://www.whitehouse.gov/library/omb/OMBINVC.HTM#Departm
ent of Commerce

Here is the exact information found on the site for this number:
= OMB NO: 0607-0856 EXPIRATION DATE: 12/31/2000 RESPS:106,200,000
HOURS:26,761,200 COSTS(000):$0 United States Census 2000 FORMS: D-1
D-1(E) D-1(E)SUPP D-1(HF) D-1(UL) D-1A(UL) D-2 D-2(E) D-2(E)SUPP
D-2(HF)\ ==

Note that the Form Name, "United States Census 2000" and the expiration
date are the same as on the form D-2(UL). However, as you will note,
form D-2(UL) is NOT LISTED. Therefore, OMB No. 0607-0856 is NOT a valid
OMB number and no one receiving it with THAT NUMBER on it is required
to fill it out. Since, according to page 1, "This is the official form
for all the people at this address", there must be NO VALID FORM for
anyone who receives the long form, D-2(UL). The next finding is even
more amazing. As I was cutting and pasting the above from the OMB site,
my eyes glanced down. BELOW the listing for 0607-0856 I found Form
D-2(UL) listed under OMB NO: 0607-0858, titled "Census 2000 -- Puerto
Rico". However, take a GOOD LOOK at the information for this OMB
number:

Thoth and TheKeys of Enoch + The Inca Prophecies + The Chinese Pyramids
- AnExtraterrestrial Legacy


Hello everyone

I've compiled for you 4 really mesmerizing, astounding, old
paradigm-shattering stories that are sure to change how you view both the
distant past of our planet as well as our immediate future.

The latest one I've read is this haunting "Night of the Red Sky" article
that I received yesterday.

Here is a short sample:

Night of the Red Sky

The Prophetic Vision of 'Grandfather'

In the 1920s, an Apache wise man had a Vision of four prophecies that
foretold death and destruction for mankind, unless we incorporate Spirit in
our daily lives.

Two of these prophecies may already have come true.


A number of people can predict the future, but few get the timing correct.
"Grandfather" was an Apache wise man and scout, named Stalking Wolf, who
grew up outside white man's influence. His many predictions not only came
true in the manner he predicted, but also when he predicted.

Tom Brown, Jr learned extensively from Grandfather for twenty years, from
their first meeting when Tom was seven years old. Stalking Wolf was the
real-life grandfather of Tom's best friend at the time. The following
excerpt from Tom's book, The Quest, tells of Grandfather's predictions for
all of mankind.

(CLIP)

Grandfather said that there was not future, only possible futures. The
'now' was like the palm of a hand, with each finger being the possible
future, and, as always, one of the futures was always the most powerful,
the way that the main course of events would surely take us. Thus his
predictions were of the possible future, which meant that he always left a
choice.

If a man could make the right choices," he said, "then he could
significantly alter the course of the possible future. No man, then, should
feel insignificant, for it only takes one man to alter the consciousness of
mankind through the Spirit-that-moves-in-all-things. In essence, one
thought influences another, then another, until the thought is made
manifest throughout all of Creation. It is the same thought, the same
force, that causes an entire flock of birds to change course, as the flock
then has one mind."

(CLIP)

Out of all the personal and major prophecies that Grandfather foretold,
there are four that stand out above all the rest. It is these four that
mark the destruction of man and life on Earth, as we know it to exist now.
Yet Grandfather said that we could still change things, even after the
first two prophecies came true, but that there could be no turning back
after the third.

Now that we have gone well past the second prophecy, danger and destruction
are very apparent, and our only recourse is to work harder to change what
has possibly become the inevitable. The urgency that I feel - now, more
than ever - is a direct result of the second, impossible prophecy coming
true. It is the reason that I teach, sometimes with a certain desperation,
and constantly with the sense that we are quickly running out of time.

(CLIP)

I recommend you read the entire article posted at
http://www.nexusmagazine.com/RedSkies.html
if you are ready and willing to face the visions and absolutely grim
prophecies of this Apache wise man from the 1920's for our near future on
this planet.

The First Sign he accurately described was the world televised great
African famine in Ethiopian that inspired the Bob Geldof "We are the World"
Live Aid relief effort.

The Second Sign is about Holes in the sky...

But I'll say no more on this... For now.

Is history going to repeat itself once again as happened for past and long
forgotten civilizations on Earth?

The answer depends on us all.

Ultimate ID badge,
transceiver implanted in humans
monitored by GPS satellites




By Julie Foster
© 2000 WorldNetDaily.com

New implant technology currently used to locate lost pets has been adapted
for use in humans, allowing implant wearers to emit a homing beacon, have
vital bodily functions monitored and confirm identity when making
e-commerce transactions.
Applied Digital Solutions, an e-business to business solutions provider,
acquired the patent rights to the miniature digital transceiver it has
named "Digital Angel®." The company plans to market the device for a number
of uses, including as a "tamper-proof means of identification for enhanced
e-business security."

Digital Angel® sends and receives data and can be continuously tracked by
global positioning satellite technology. When implanted within a body, the
device is powered electromechanically through the movement of muscles and
can be activated either by the "wearer" or by a monitoring facility.

"We believe its potential for improving individual and e-business security
and enhancing the quality of life for millions of people is virtually
limitless," said ADS Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Richard Sullivan.
"Although we're in the early developmental phase, we expect to come forward
with applications in many different areas, from medical monitoring to law
enforcement. However, in keeping with our core strengths in the e-business
to business arena, we plan to focus our initial development efforts on the
growing field of e-commerce security and user ID verification."

Dr. Peter Zhou, chief scientist for development of the implant and
president of DigitalAngel.net, Inc, a subsidiary of ADS, told WorldNetDaily
the device will send a signal from the person wearing Digital Angel® to
either his computer or the e-merchant with whom he is doing business in
order to verify his identity.

In the future, said Zhou, computers may be programmed not to operate
without such user identification. As previously reported in WND, user
verification devices requiring a live fingerprint scan are already being
sold by computer manufacturers. Digital Angel® takes such biometric
technology a giant step further by physically joining human and machine.

But e-commerce is only one field to which Digital Angel® applies. The
device's patent describes it as a rescue beacon for kidnapped children and
missing persons. According to Zhou, the implant will save money by reducing
resources used in rescue operations for athletes, including mountain
climbers and skiers.

Law enforcement may employ the implant to keep track of criminals under
house arrest, as well as reduce emergency response time by immediately
locating individuals in distress.

The device also has the ability to monitor the user's heart rate, blood
pressure and other vital functions.

"Your doctor will know the problem before you do," said Zhou, noting peace
of mind is possible for at-risk patients who can rest in the knowledge that
help will be on the way should anything go wrong.

Indeed, peace of mind is Digital Angel®'s main selling point.

"Ideally," the patent states, "the device will bring peace of mind and an
increased quality of life for those who use it, and for their families,
loved ones, and associates who depend on them critically."

Referring to the threat of kidnapping, the patent goes on to say, "Adults
who are at risk due to their economic or political status, as well as their
children who may be at risk of being kidnapped, will reap new freedoms in
their everyday lives by employing the device."

Digital Angel®'s developer told WND demand for the implant has been
tremendous since ADS announced its acquisition of the patent in December.

"We have received requests daily from around the world for the product,"
Zhou said, mentioning South America, Mexico and Spain as examples.

One inquirer was the U.S. Department of Defense, through a contractor,
according to Zhou. American soldiers may be required to wear the implant so
their whereabouts and health conditions can be accessed at all times, said
the scientist.

website.


As of yet, there is no central DigitalAngel.net facility that would do the
job of monitoring users -- the task will most likely fall to the entities
marketing the device, said Zhou. For example, if a medical group decides to
market Digital Angel® to its patients, that group

I suspect that we might find

that the US, to maintain its improving relations with China, might have

decided not to make too much of an issue of direct Chinese support for
the KR

during the 1970s.


That's enough, right there. Though frankly, considering the state of
Chinese-Vietnamese relations at the time I doubt if China would have cut
the KR loose even if the US had raised a very big stink. Given the state
of US-Vietnamese relations at the time, that the US might rise a stink at
all about the KR or anybody else fighting the Vietnamese, was pretty
unlikely.

None the less, the US (and its allies) committed a major "sin of
ommission" even if all they did was turn a blind eye. Given America's
history of backing every tin horn tyrant and tyrant wannabe for as long as
anybody can remember, I find it difficult to believe that the direct,
covert aid to the KR only started up after the bulk of the killing was
over. But if truly it didn't start until then the crime is greater because
the US government knew exactly who they were helping.

What a sick world. It's enough to make one puke.



After the KR fell in 1979, well, besides aiding the KR and

other anti-Vietnamese groups through Thailand it might be possible that

Washington made efforts to support the KR through Beijing, but in the
absence

of evidence I'd hesitate to claim that it was so.

What I'm really looking for is some proof of direct aid laundered through
China the way aid was later laundered through Thailand. I  guess we're
going to have to wait till one of the men involved gets religion or
something and confesses in public. Things like this happen sometimes so
let's hope.

[CTRL] Clifford Stone on Nat Security and UFOs 1/2

2000-03-21 Thread Nicky Molloy

-Caveat Lector-   A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"
/A -Cui Bono?-

National Security
by Paola Harris

This interview took place on 2 July 1998 at the home of Clifford Stone in
Roswell, New Mexico.

 http://utenti.tripod.it/paolaharris/cliffsto.htm




Sergeant Stone, what is your background and what events led to the birth of
your book, " UFOs Are Real"?

When 1 was seven 1 had my first close encounter with a UFO, followed by
interactions with alien entities. I served in the Army for over 2 1 years.
At first, 1 was reluctant, then afraid, then disillusioned by the way the
Government handles the subject. When I decided to speak openly about UFOs 1
was still on active service, and the Army only told me to always make
consistent Statements. However, when 1 was assigned to another detachment, 1
was categorically ordered not to discuss UFOs, or write or make requests to
Congress without authorization or approval. 1 considered this to be
unacceptable, especially since I was involved in the programme without the
knowledge of' my commanding officer Instead of being discharged, 1 was sent
to Germany, then Belgium and around Europe, and 1 found myself involved in
the UFO situation again, though unwillingly. 1 heard about an incident in
the USSR: the Soviets tried to shoot down a large unidentified craft and
mysteriously lost three of their planes. So 1 decided to conic out into the
open, in spite of my superiors who may not have been aware of my intentions
and my links with various agencies connected to UFOs. 1 asked to be
discharged, informed the structures not connected to the Army about this and
left-Germany.

What year was this?

1989. 1 went home on apparently ordinary leave. Only one colleague, a
Russian interpreter, knew about my involvement with the UFO programme. My
request to be discharged was denied two days before 1 arrived at Fort Bliss
and they assigned me elsewhere for two months. They convinced me to stay and
said it wouldn't be sent back to Europe but would be assigned to Fort
Belvoir. 1 was still set on leaving because 1 didn't want to go through the
same experiences, experiences which can't be discussed, even to the extent
where my family knew nothing about them but were used to my sudden, long
absences and certain strange visitors...

Were they government agents?

Yes, but I didn't know they were. Here's an example: since 1969 up until two
months ago I was in close contact with someone who remained anonymous and
who called me "Colonel" he was an agent responsible for my protection.

UFOs Are Real contains classified documents. What impact has the book had on
public opinion?

It contains a large amount of American government documents with a high
classification level. The Goverment denies everything and doesn't even admit
that top secret documents on the subject exist but keeps them well hidden!
My interest centres on Operations Moon Dust and Moon Fly which tie still
involved with UFOs. The US Air Force has an installation at Fort Belvoir,
Virginia which is identified as Air Intelligence Group 696 and is
responsible for the collection of UFO data
and material. Names and programmes are given pseudonyms. I was in the Army's
counterespionage service when the programme covering Project Moon and
Operation Blue Fly began. These missions are both run by the Department of
State. Well, that's a half truth.  It's actually Defence Intelligence which
really controls both projects, using  military attachès in every consulate
and embassy in the world who send data about UFOs, while our military
personnel was and is ready to go into action anywhere in order to obtain any
prospective document and make it disappear.

Such as documents about recovered UFOs which the USA has always hidden, on
the basis of certain agreements.

I am absolutely certain that the majority of the foremost governments and
Intelligence Agencies know the truth about UFOs. Don't get me wrong: we
don't know how much has been disclosed.

What didnt you say in UFOs Are Real ?

I didn't say very much about Moon Dust and Blue Fly. I got hold of certain
documents, but when I tried to find certain information I got nowhere. They
told me that for the moment it was probably classified material and could
not be divulged. I then went to to certain members of Congress who denied -
through political channels - both the existence of operative units with
these names and the role of Fort Belvoir. I went back to the same
Congressmen and showed them 23 documents which confirmed these missions and
the Fort Belvoir operative base. The Air Force intervened, ,it first
claiming that they were war missions and then trying to make Moon Dust and
Blue Fly out to be pacific. In the three chapters devoted to Moon Dust and
Blue Fly I have not included letters which name members of Congress who
stated that the relative documents had been destroyed. That's pure
disinformation on the part of the Defence. The Attorney General knew about
the Air Force's coverup but didn't

Dr. Michael Wolf suffered the same cruel fate when he lost his wife and son.
Do you know Dr. Wolf?

I haven't heard of him. We are trying to do what others in Space have
already done.

So, after your sighting as a child, the Government monitored your
interaction with aliens, using you, we could say, as an interlocutor with
other races in order to glean information?

Exactly. It was the Government which wanted to squeeze this information out
or us.

I mean you, you in particular.

There are a great deal of things I haven't ever said.

So, if your job was to be an intermediary... do you believe that there will
be contact in the future?

We have already had contact.

But in the near future?

Definitely. Within 25 years. We are moving towards a militarized Space which
will lead to the opening of new frontiers in Research and Development. We
will become voyagers in Space, we will go towards other solar systems.
Current technology doesn't allow us to draw our discoveries together and put
A, B and C together in order to get B. If Space becomes militarized, it will
be a threat to our vistors. It's easy to see Why. We need to use technology
responsibly for the betterment of our race, and if other intelligent species
really exist up there, we have obligations towards them. We, as a race, are
still not mature and spiritual enough to do this. Do I believe in God? Yes!
And they believe in God too. But our definition of divinity is probably in
conflict with theirs, which doesn't mean that we have a different point of
view. They would wipe out many races in order to better define the concept
of God, and at the same time they would get themselves killed before taking
the lives of others. But they are also ready to defend themselves. I think
they will continue to monitor us until we constitute a threat, within the
next 30 years. This (Showing me a page in his book), is a document taken
from an Intelligence memorandum which was sent to the FBI. It should have
been destroyed. I told the FBI that the Air Force had authorized its
release. They didn't know that the Air Force didn't want the information to
be released. And it worked.

Your book came out in July 1997, and by now they ought t o know that you
have these documents, don't you think?

As far as the Air Force and the Pentagon are concerned they don't exist. But
1 have shown the opposite to be true.

Can you tell us the number of your work group?

It was 4607.

Is that a recovery team in the Air Force?

Yes, it's based at Fort Belvoir. There they train and look after people
who... 1 hate the phrase "psychic phenomena", who have had experiences as an
interface. They tell you: "You are going to be an interface", and it's
logical that your reaction could be very emotional.

Let's talk about recoveries. It seems that aliens don't bother coming back
to save their c~ ' panions left on Earth after a crash. What do you think
about Area 51?

Do you want the truth? Area 51 is an expedient. However, there is a
connection. We still use Edwards base in California, which belongs to the
Air Force. 1 want to make it clear though, that 1 am not saying that nothing
of the kind, associated with the UFO phenomenon, happens in that base.

And what do you think of alien corpses put in containers?

It's science fiction. We have a "marker" an identifier who acts as an
interface with the fabricator. The fabricator then provides specific
information, small fragments of the truth, messages which must appear to be
very positive. So after managing to influence the identifier, the fabricator
will disappear, and the identifier will carry out the task he has been
assigned to do. If we want the ufological community to believe certain
things, it must know what we do. First of all, we give the fabricator  the
task of identifying what we define  "Intelligence Targetting", a target
being an individual who will circulate - this is the marker - and start to
spread... it's surprising to see how easy it is...

... To spread the partial truth...

We call it disinformation.

If the Roswell crash was covered up, does that mean that during World War 11
something similar had already happened? Why are you smiling?

 Is Media a Danger to Democracy?


 By Robert Parry

 Shortly before New Year's 2000, writer Robert D.
 Kaplan penned a New York Times commentary about
 the world's future.

 He blithely predicted that "political systems in 2100 will be
 elegantly varied, unconstrained by the sanctimony of the late
 20th century, with its simple call for 'democracy.'" Kaplan
added
 that his vision of this post-democratic world included a
 breakdown of national sovereignty and a resurrection of the
 ancient structure of autocratic city-states.

 "The next century will be the age of high-tech feudalism,"
 maintained Kaplan, a senior fellow at the New America
 Foundation which prides itself in "thinking outside the box."
 [NYT, Dec. 27, 1999]

 While Kaplan certainly has the right to his opinion and there
is
 some logic behind his prediction, what was striking was the
 casual way that The New York Times presented the argument,
 as if the end of "simple" democracy was a foregone
conclusion,
 nothing much to worry about.

 This cavalier attitude offered a rare glimpse at what is a
growing
 -- though usually unstated -- notion along the Washington-New
 York power corridor: that free-market forces increasingly
control
 everything and should control everything.

 From this perspective, democracy -- the will of the people --
 becomes more a "sanctimony" than a noble ideal, more an
 impediment to progress than the fairest way to bestow power
on
 leaders.

 This growing view -- what one might call a new-age
capitalistic
 determinism -- has gained adherence among many influential
 journalists and thinkers. Yet, since democracy remains a
popular
 notion with many Americans and since the media retains a
 self-image as the plucky defender of the U.S. Constitutional
 system, the term democracy has been less jettisoned than
 redefined. Within this new body of thought, "democracy" has
 come to mean the freedom of business to operate with minimal
 government constraints.

 This evolving concept also helps explain, to some degree, the
 media’s decline in covering significant affairs of state.
More and
 more, news is debased into “content,” as the out-dated need
for
 a well-informed public fades away. Except for the stock
prices
 and business news, information slides into entertainment.

 But how did this happen? What transformed the Watergate
 press corps of the mid-1970s, which asked grand questions
 about serious government misconduct, into today's media which
 can be alternately frivolous, petulant and obsequious?

 Three books offer an intriguing panorama of the crucial
changes
 in the media over the past quarter century and the media’s
 growing threat to democracy.

 The first, published in 1996, is Kathryn S. Olmsted's
 Challenging the Secret Government. It examines the
 awakening of skepticism within the U.S. news media and the
 Congress in the mid-1970s.

 The second is Edward Herman's The Myth of the Liberal
 Media, which reviews the media's acquiescence to the Reagan
 administration's implausible propaganda during the 1980s. The
 third is Robert W. McChesney's Rich Media, Poor Democracy,
 a study of the rapid concentration of media power during the
 1990s.

 Olmsted starts her story by pointing to the secret
compromises
 that the Cold War brought to the ethics of the U.S.
government.
 She quotes World War II Gen. James Doolittle explaining in a
 secret 1954 report to President Eisenhower why CIA covert
 operations were needed and what they entailed.

 "Hitherto acceptable norms of human conduct do not apply,"
 Doolittle wrote. "If the United States is to survive,
long-standing
 American concepts of 'fair play' must be reconsidered. We
must
 develop effective espionage and counterespionage services
 and must learn to subvert, sabotage and destroy our enemies
by
 more clever, more sophisticated, and more effective methods
 than those used against us. It may become necessary that the
 American people be made acquainted with, understand and
 support this fundamentally repugnant philosophy."

 While Eisenhower and later presidents did implement the first
 part of Doolittle's recommendation -- ordering covert actions
 around the world -- they finessed the latter. Rather than
explain
 the choices to the American people, U.S. leaders dropped a
 cloak of state

Dear Colleagues

Next month, April 16-17, officials at the World Bank and IMF meet
in Washington, DC for their spring meetings. Many organizations
and grassroots groups are organizing large protests and demonstrations
to take place during that meeting.

Friends of the Earth-US, in consultation with other groups, has
prepared an NGO platform statement that calls on the World Bank to
shift out of financing oil, gas and mining projects and to announce
an immediate ban on financing these projects in pristine, frontier
areas.  Over the years, it is evident that investments in the
extractive industries cause significant and irreparable harm to
the environment, the poor, indigenous communities, and contribute
to the crises of global climate change.  All too often, these
projects are associated with human rights abuses and the companies
build alliances with authoritarian governments to protect their
corporate interest.

We have developed this platform to call a halt to this kind of
financing.  The statement also calls on public funds to be used
for public good, while recognizing that it may not be appropriate
for the World Bank to be involved in financing these projects
either.  What is important is that civil society sets the development
priorities for their country, not by bankers in Washington, DC.

We ask for your organizational endorsement and for your assistance
in circulating this statement to other organizations.

To endorse, please send your name, organization and country to Sara
Zdeb ([EMAIL PROTECTED], or fax 202/783-0444).

The deadline for replying is April 3, 2000.

NGO PLATFORM CALLING ON THE WORLD BANK GROUP TO PHASE OUT FINANCING
OIL, GAS AND MINING PROJECTS

APRIL 2000

In this era of globalization, there is a growing awareness that
environmental protection and economic development must go hand in
hand.  Nowhere is the incompatibility of environmental destruction
and poverty alleviation more evident than in the World Bank Group's
investments in the extractive industries: oil, gas and mining.  As
the world's largest development institution, and one of the major
vehicles for economic globalization, the World Bank now stands at
a crossroads: perpetuate poverty and pollution through extractive
industries, or alleviate poverty through environmentally and socially
sustainable development.

The undersigned organizations and individuals call on the publicly
financed World Bank Group to phase out of financing destructive
oil, gas and mining projects.  The Bank's support for these extractive
industries underscores its record of environmental and social
destruction.  Oil, gas and mining projects enable wealthy
multinational
corporations to extract resources and profits from poor countries,
leaving poverty in their wake.  They fuel global climate change,
pollute the environment and lead to deforestation.  Even worse,
extractive industries have further entrenched corrupt and dictatorial
governments, and exacerbated human rights abuses.

Oil, gas, and mining embody an unsustainable model of economic
development that has failed the world's poor in the 20th century.
There is no reason for the World Bank Group to finance these sectors
in the 21st.  The World Bank Group devotes a significant share of
its portfolio to extractive sectors (in 1999, IFC and MIGA lent
16% and the World Bank lent 3.8% of its portfolio for oil, gas and
mining projects).  An environmentally and socially sustainable
approach would include investing in new industries, clean
technologies,
environmental protection, job creation and education. The World
Bank Group should establish an immediate ban on new exploration in
pristine, frontier ecosystems (a ban more than 200 organizations
from 52 countries called for at the Kyoto climate change meeting).
Finally, we call on the World Bank Group to develop a plan for a
complete phase out of financing oil, gas and mining projects. The
transition away from these sectors should be developed in a
participatory manner, be based on renewable energy-based systems
and ensure the livelihoods of local communities.

Ten Reasons the World Bank Group Should Stop Financing Oil, Gas,
and Mining Projects in Poor Nations

1. The Poor Often Pay the Highest Price The environmental destruction
and social upheaval that accompany oil, gas, and mining projects
often harm the poor the most.  The poor are the most likely to be
forced off of their land and made homeless

 THE ARAFAT DISASTER

MER - Washington - 3/20/00:  The "Authority" of Yasser Arafat, the
newest of the "client regimes" installed in the Middle East, would
be such a laugh if it were not so historically tragic.

Arafat's corrupt, repressive, and mediocre negotiators are coming
back to Washington this week trapped with agreements and in a
process that they are now both unable and unwilling to free themselves
from.  Their handlers, money-men, and consultants have prepared
the way toward the "final settlement" -- most of these in tow with
the Israeli-Jewish lobby itself which completely dominates the
Clinton Administration on matters Middle-Eastern and twists the
Arafat regime to its will, no matter how much the public pretense
is otherwise.

Inept, corrupt, repressive -- those who know Arafat and friends
best know that these are mild adjectives that only hint at how
badly the destitute Palestinian people have been misled from one
tragedy to the next by those who have squandered not only billions
of dollars but the very legacy of basic Palestinian rights.

Still "represented" by Hassan Rahman in Washington -- a petty little
man who has stolen millions for himself over the years -- and
constantly manipulated by Nabeel Shaath (working closely with if
not for the Americans) who is always at Arafat's side, the Arafat
regime is more of a disaster than most Palestinians ever imagined..

And by the way, for those who may have forgotten, the widespread
demands for Shaath's removal and indictment which came even from
the Palestinian Legislative Assembly have been totally pushed aside
-- the "Arafat regime" is now more clearly than ever in the service
of the Israelis, the Americans, and the other regional "client
regimes" that also owe their origins and survival to their foreign
patrons, certainly not to their own people.

Each agreement signed by Arafat since Oslo has been worse than the
previous.  Each agreement has further squandered basic Palestinian
rights recognized in innumerable U.N. resolutions while further
reducing the freedoms of the now doubly captive Palestinian population
-- except of course for the small number of "VIPs" whom the Israelis
have annointed with special privileges, transit passes, and bank
accounts.

The very man who represented Palestinian aspirations as head of
the Palestinian delegation at Madrid and Washington, Haider Abdul
Shafi, has resigned in disgust and called what has taken place a
disaster which requires the Palestinian people to disavow what has
happened and start over.  This can only happen of course once
Arafat, Shaath, and the "authority" they control are no more.

Those living under Arafat's control, under the regime of the
"authority" and the "occupation", are all fearful.  Be they activists
or fighters, students or intellectuals, the mechanisms of control
and repression have been ever-tightening since the Israelis and
Americans decided to twist Arafat to their purposes at their time
of maximum power in the wake of the Gulf War.  Not only was this
an unprecedented time of division and demoralization for what is
left of the once proud "Arab world", the Clinton Administration in
Washington is the most pro-Israeli American government of all-time,
literally seeded with people from the Israeli/Jewish lobby which
helped bring Clinton/Gore to power.

Today's entire "Peace Process" deception is built upon these larger
realities in order for the U.S. and Israel to be able to pursue a
"new world order" of continual domination in the Middle East and
elsewhere.  The overall situation facing the Palestinians, and
indeed all who cherish basic concepts of justice and true peace,
is what can be done about the predicament the "Arafat regime" has
placed them in.  The following commentary, which we publish
anonymously, comes from inside the double occupation, from a
thoughtful and courageous writer and analyst who must by necessity
phrase things in relatively diplomatic language.  But read carefully,
and read between the lines, for indeed the "most dangerous" moments
still lie ahead...maybe immediately ahead.

 best known as part of a phrase imported to the States from the Congo

Gold Market


Bank of England Gold Auction Set for Today


Where to place your bid.

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) -- Spring is in the air, and that means another large
gold auction.
On Tuesday, by 12:15 p.m. London time, the world -- and the 18 or so gold
investors in the world who care -- will know just how much demand there was
for the Bank of England's auction of 25 tons of gold bars. See the gold
auction announcement.

Consider this piece a backgrounder on the dullest metal in the world: gold.
After reading this, you might want to join those 18 gold investors who
believe that bullion will become one of the coming decade's most profitable
investments.

Or you might want to shrug and walk away.

The Bank of England's auction has big gold bars, between 350 and 430 ounces
each. The Tuesday auction is the fifth and last in a series of British gold
auctions this fiscal year.

One of these British auctions last year was so oversubscribed by gold
companies and other buyers, the price of gold popped. As high as $327 an
ounce. That was then. See previous StockWatch on gold's rally.

This is now. Gold is back below $290 an ounce. Central bank sales of gold are
a deep psychological factor influencing the price of gold. The British
Treasury has already said it will sell another 150 tons of gold in fiscal
year 2000-2001, starting later this spring.

Central banks around the world have about 20,000 tons of the metal in their
vaults. The Bank of England's regular auctions are the highest profile of
these sales -- and demand for the gold is a barometer of whether the metal
might stage a rare rally.

Who can blame these central banks? Gold is a lame reserve these days, right?
It just sits there. The gold leasing rates that central banks reap when they
lend their gold are paltry. Gold doesn't go up like a biotechnology stock. Or
the London Stock Exchange's techMARK Index of high-flying computer stocks.

The United Kingdom's bankers hope to reduce Britain's gold reserves to about
300 tons from about 700 or so tons. Last September, when 15 of Britain's
European neighbors vowed not to sell any reserves, beyond the 2,000 tons they
already had announced, for five years, gold prices surged. Briefly.
France, Germany and Italy each have higher gold reserve levels than Britain's
Treasury. The Dutch Central Bank recently announced plans to sell 300 tons of
gold in the next five years. And so on.
Also hurting the price of gold, which Monday sat at about $288 an ounce in
New York futures trading (GC=JO: news, msgs), is net selling of borrowed
gold. So-called forward hedging by large gold producers boosts the world's
total supply by about 10 percent. See our futures contracts page.
Gold producers, of course, forward-hedge to lock in a higher price for the
rocks they are pulling out of the ground. Yet by hedging their production
with futures contracts or put options -- or selling covered call options --
they are driving the price of gold into the ground.

For Tuesday's gold auction to raise eyebrows -- as it did last September--
demand has to be off the meter. Let's look at the last auction -- Jan. 25.

The price of gold on that day rose $1.50 an ounce in London after the Bank of
England said its sale of 25 tons of gold had been 4.3 times oversubscribed.
At the time, the central bank said it had received applications to buy as
many as 3,451,200 ounces even as it sold just more than 800,000 ounces, or 25
tons.

On Tuesday, gold producers -- the large ones like Placer Dome (PDG: news,
msgs), Newmont Mining (NEM: news, msgs), Gold Fields in South Africa (GOLD:
news, msgs), Barrick Gold (ABX: news, msgs), Rio Tinto and Anglogold Ltd.
(AU: news, msgs) -- all must step up to the plate and bid for these giant
gold bars. In size. Otherwise, gold on Tuesday, after 12:30 p.m. or so London
time, will be a dull story.

Chris Thompson, chairman of Gold Fields in South Africa, second-largest gold
producer in the world, recently told me he expects a huge gold rally.
Sometime soon. Of course, Thompson and other gold executives are paid to talk
up the price of their metal.

One sign they are putting their money where there mouths are: On Monday,
Joseph Gutnick, an Australian mining magnate, said he wanted to raise $500
million to scoop up depressed natural-resources companies. Gutnick recently
established the Capital Growth Resources Fund in the tax-sheltered Cayman
Islands to look for stakes in gold and other metals.

Thompson -- and others in the industry like Gutnick -- clearly are prepared
to stop their forward-hedging of the metal and search for metallic bargains.
Many large gold producers are using hedging strategies only when they must
guarantee bank financing for the purchase of a mine, or a piece of land, or

Nazi doctor 'killed 772 children'

FROM ROGER BOYES IN BERLIN

AUSTRIA will be confronted with one of the most grisly episodes from its 
Nazi past today when an 84-year-old doctor said to be known as The Scythe 
stands in the dock accused of killing mentally and physically handicapped 
children.
It will be the first significant Nazi trial in the country since 1972, when 
two Auschwitz architects were in court , and, given the age of the 
criminals and the witnesses, is likely to be the last.

Much hinges on the stooped figure of Heinrich Gross who would, according to 
witnesses, stride into his Vienna clinic wearing polished boots and his 
crisp Wehrmacht colonel's uniform and point to the child patients marked 
down for euthanasia.

Austria faces up to the Hitler years only reluctantly and many citizens 
cling to the myth that the country was a victim rather than enthusiastic 
collaborator of Nazi Germany. This inability to tackle the past has helped 
the rise of the right-wing populist Jörg Haider, who in his early career 
flattered Waffen SS veterans and praised Hitler's employment policies.

Professor Gross, a psychiatrist, joined the SA Brown Shirts in 1933, the 
Nazi party in 1938 and the Wehrmacht in 1943. After the Second World War he 
became a stalwart member of the ruling Austrian Socialist Party.

About 688,000 Austrians were members of the Nazi party and the postwar 
Socialists quickly realised that they could not rule without the help of 
these ex-National Socialists. With political protection, Professor Gross 
rose to be one of the best paid forensic doctors and, helped by his 
clinic's unique collection of pickled brains, a respected scientist.

Professor Gross says he remembers nothing about the Nazi years, many of 
which were spent working at the Spiegelgrund clinic, the children's section 
of Vienna's neurology institute. Nowadays he falls asleep in the middle of 
conversations and seems to lack concentration. When the trial begins his 
lawyer will plead that he is unfit to testify.

But it is difficult to shrug off the evidence that derives in large part 
from the Nazi mania for collecting and storing scientific information. 
Professor Gross took photographs of the children he treated. The records 
are precise: 772 children died in his clinic and the professor signed the 
death certificates of 238.

The preserved brains, kept in jars of formaldehyde in the basement, 
revealed traces of the powerful sleeping drug Luminal. Some of these 
brains, firmly identified, have been buried in a cemetery by relatives.

Did Professor Gross order the injection of fatal doses of the drug? He 
denies it and says he opposed the Nazi programme of euthanasia for the 
mentally and physically handicapped. The death certificates bearing his 
signature give lung infection as the main cause of death. Survivors make 
clear why: drugged children were put out on the balconies in the middle of 
winter.

The most damning evidence will come from survivors. Alois Kaufmann, 67, was 
sent to the clinic as a ten-year-old in 1943 after a school psychologist 
had designated him as "asocial". He identified Professor Gross as being the 
feared doctor known as The Scythe.

Doctors were determined to do their bit for the war effort by researching 
the effects of cold and malnutrition on the human body.

"They would take all the bedclothes away and put the children - even babies 
- naked on the balcony to check how long it would be before they got 
pneumonia and died," Herr Kaufmann says. It was common to duck children in 
ice-cold water and then wrap them up like mummies, again to test their 
resistance to cold.

When Professor Gross entered the ward "we had to remain silent," recalls 
Herr Kaufmann. "We had to stand in a line and he would point at certain 
children, jabbing his finger - 'You, you, and you'. Then, you won't believe 
this, he would smile or pat the children on the heads or even give them 
sweets. The next day these children would have disappeared."

The children had been taken to Pavilion 17, the death ward. The first to go 
were bed-wetters, those with harelips and "slow thinkers". The doctors 
were, in the broadest sense, obeying orders. Hitler had authorised mercy 
killing for incurable children and in the initial stage of the programme 
doctors would fill out forms with comments like "improvement impossible" or 
"permanently unsuitable for work".

The forms would be forwarded to Berlin and the go-ahead for "treatment" - 
that is, killing - was promptly given. The doctors thus bore much of the 
responsibility. Their scope for independent action increased as the war 
progressed. Doctors became diagnosticians and executioners.

There was no professional group so deeply committed to the Nazis as doctors 
and few countries could match Austria for its Nazi involvement. The 
combination of the two - a deeply compromised profession operating in a

IMF on the Ropes
By Russell Mokhiber and Robert Weissman

There may be no single institution with greater pernicious influence in
the world than the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Now, for the first
time, the Fund faces a real challenge to its existence, at least in its
current form.

For two decades, the IMF has exerted a stranglehold over developing
country economies, denying them the funding they need to make foreign debt
payments and avoid default, unless they enact "structural adjustment"
policies.

Structural adjustment can fairly be described as a virulent strain of
Reaganomics or Newt Gingrich's Contract with America. The basic idea of
these policies is to open countries' labor markets and natural resource
riches to multinationals, shrink the size and role of government, rely on
market forces to distribute resources and services and integrate poor
countries into the global economy.

Key structural adjustment policies include: privatizing government-owned
enterprises and government-provided services, slashing government
spending, orienting economies to promote exports, lifting trade
restrictions, implementing higher interest rates, eliminating subsidies on
consumer items such as foods, fuel and medicines and imposing tax
increases.

Structural adjustment has been successful at its intended effort to
diminish the scope of government and integrate developing countries into
the global economy.

But it has increased suffering in developing countries immeasurably. In
most of the world's poorest nations undergoing structural adjustment,
poverty has increased, health care systems have collapsed and income
inequality has skyrocketed.

Developing countries that have done well in recent decades, primarily
those in Asia, including China, have succeeded by violating central tenets
of structural adjustment: they have maintained a strong government role in
the economy, and they have protected certain parts of their economy.

Not surprisingly, people in developing countries have protested strongly
against IMF policies. Countries throughout the world have witnessed "IMF
riots" following IMF-ordered lifting of price subsidies for goods such as
bread and gasoline.

But because the IMF derives it authority from rich countries, not the poor
nations, it has been able to weather these outbursts.

In the last two years, however, momentum against the IMF has grown in the
rich countries, as well as in the developing world.

The IMF's admitted mishandling of the 1997-1998 Asian financial crisis
made the economic contraction in Asian nations much worse. The structural
adjustment agenda further slowed the Asian economies that had already
plunged into recession.

This incompetent performance finally sparked widespread criticism of the
Fund in the industrialized countries.

Meanwhile, the worldwide Jubilee movement is increasingly winning support
for the idea of debt cancellation for the poorest countries.

The IMF has deftly tried to turn these weaknesses to strengths. It
adroitly used the Asian financial crisis to win $90 billion in new funding
from the rich countries. The Fund needed more money, proponents claimed,
to keep the crisis economies afloat.

And the IMF has sought new monies so it can offer very modest debt relief
through its Enhanced Structural Adjustment Facility (now known as the
Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility, an Orwellian twist) -- in exchange
for countries agreeing to years of closely supervised structural
adjustment!

But these jujitsu tactics may be running out of steam. Political momentum
against the IMF ratcheted up in recent weeks, when the Meltzer Commission,
a bipartisan advisory commission to the U.S. Congress, released its
report.

While the members of the commission disagreed on many matters, they agreed
on two: First, the IMF (along with the World Bank) should use its existing
resources to cancel all debts. Second, the IMF should get out of the
business of long-term lending -- the kind of development loans to which
structural adjustment conditions are normally attached.

The report has shifted the terms of debate over the IMF in the United
States and the U.S. Congress. Unfortunately, the IMF is only seeking a
relatively small amount of new money from the Congress -- and if that
money goes through, Congress will lose most of its influence over the
monetary agency for several years (until the next funding request).

But the shift in policy circles is now being accompanied by a new
progressive public protest against the IMF in the United States. On April
16, during the IMF's annual spring meeting, thousands of demonstrators
will take to the streets of Washington, D.C. to protest the deadly toll of
IMF policies.

Infused with the spirit of Seattle that shut down the World Trade
Organization meetings, the demonstrators are planning a direct action to
shut down the IMF, as well as a massive, permitted rally and march. (For
more information on the April 16 actions, see http://www.a16.org)

Young Britons lose sense of nation
Jack Grimston

MEET the post-British generation. They see themselves as English, Scottish
or Welsh patriots and would be prepared to die for their country. Neither
Britain nor Europe are their homeland and they associate the Queen with the
British past.
The picture presented by a Sunday Times poll of more than 1,000 British
schoolchildren confirms fears that tensions could grow between the
countries of a devolved United Kingdom.
Typical of the new English is Natalie Harris, 13, a pupil at John Bramston
school in Witham, Essex. "I'm English and I've never thought of myself as
anything else," she said.
It emerged last week that an internal cabinet report warned Tony Blair that
British identity could be in permanent decline. "International
institutions, sub-national entities and the courts all have their own
dynamic, over which national government has only limited influence," said
the report from the Performance and Innovation Unit.The poll supports the
unit's view, with a majority believing the British identity is breaking up.
A large minority, 35%, even believe that in 20 years the country will be
divided into states separated by border crossings.
However, individualism does not seem to have overtaken children completely:
most are prepared to die for their country. In Scotland, 20% are ready to
lay down their lives even if they disagreed with the cause.
"These results show that youngsters are neither British nor European," said
John Charmley, a historian at the University of East Anglia. "They show a
backlash against the beliefs of the older generation. The English are
increasingly defining themselves as such in reaction to rising Scottish and
Welsh national feeling."
Charmley fears that tensions could arise between the different
nationalities in areas such as public spending, where the Celtic countries
receive proportionately more of Britain's central funds than England.
The new generation appears to be alert to such dangers. Although their
identity is not British, young people see few attractions in a full
break-up. Most English children who have an opinion on the subject believe
that Scottish and Welsh MPs should continue to sit at Westminster, while
there is little interest in the regional English assemblies proposed by
many new Labour supporters.
Traditional icons remain popular. The most potent symbols for English
respondents were the national anthem, the England football team and the
Palace of Westminster.
In addition, there is little sign that the rival pulls of Europe and
globalisation are competing with the dying British identity. Only 1% of
English children, and almost no Scots or Welsh, said they thought of
themselves first as Europeans.
Vink Tran, 15, was born in Britain of Vietnamese parents and also goes to
John Bramston school. "I tend to think of Europe as foreign and that I live
in England," he said.
In addition to more than 800 English pupils, 200 Scottish and 100 Welsh
children were surveyed. Their rejection of Britain is even more pronounced.
In Wales, 79% of pupils saw themselves as Welsh first; in Scotland the
figure was 82%.
John Wyn Jones, head teacher of Ysgol Uwchradd Bodedern, a comprehensive in
Anglesey, refused to distribute the questionnaire because it was not in
Welsh. "This is Wales, boy. It's a nation, not a state," he told a researcher.
Not all young people have foresaken Britannia. Katherine Rich, 15, of
Henleaze, Bristol, said she lived in Great Britain. She was "definitely not
European" and saw the national anthem as the defining feature of her
nationality.
The report's findings support efforts by Buckingham Palace to portray the
monarchy as cement holding the UK together. Half of English respondents saw
the Queen as British, although most Scots and Welsh thought she was
English. Old bloodlines die hard, though: 16% of English children think the
Queen is German.
The Sunday Times surveyed more than 1,000 children aged 13-16 at schools in
England, Scotland and Wales last week, asking nine questions related to
national identity.

A special report by the PUNCH magazine political team.



"No Prime Minister"


The steep decline in relations between the Queen and Tony Blair has baffled

many.

Now the events that have brought Britain's leaders to an all-time low can

be unraveled.

=


For months the Queen has been preoccupied with arrangements for

celebrations to mark her Golden Jubilee in 2002. She acceded to the throne

when her father, George VI, died during the night of February 6, 1952.

Buckingham Palace has promised the Queen "a year of celebrations" which

will far exceed even those of her Silver Jubilee in 1977. Most of the

events will take place in the summer, when people are, as one of the

Queen's retainers puts it, "up for a party".


To ensure that nothing overshadows the momentous occasion, the Queen

summoned her Prime Minister to a meeting at Buckingham Palace to seek his

assurance that he will not require her to dissolve Parliament and call a

general election in 2002. To the astonishment of those in the know, Tony

Blair refused.


According to the most highly placed source, Blair was quite blunt about it.

The Labour Party was elected on May 1, 1997, and its full term would carry

it into the spring of Her Majesty's intended annul mirabilis. He pointed

out that, if things continue to go


well, the Labour Party will have its election in the summer of next year.

But if there is a problem with the economy, the euro, or even a war in

which the UK is involved, then he will have to postpone it. In any event,

he said, he needed maximum flexibility to decide when he could go to the
polls.


"Her Majesty was dumbfounded," says the source. "No prime minister in my

memory has ever refused a request from her. She never uses her position to

exact promises, but this is a very different matter. The year 2002 will be

the pinnacle of her sovereignty Furthermore, if there is one event after

which she might step down in favour of Prince Charles, then this is it."


The source continues: "Fitting in with the monarchy is clearly not part of

Mr Blair's agenda any more than Parliament itself is."


Blair's stand in the face of a personal request from the Queen has caused

great anguish at the Palace. He knows that the death of Princess Diana, the

humiliating circumstances in which Prince Andrew's marriage failed and the

whole Charles/ Camilla saga have done huge damage to the royal family The

Jubilee was seen by the Queen as a way of restoring popularity for the

monarchy as an institution.


On top of the Queen's fury, it is no secret that she sees Blair as a man

who is inadequate for the job. "She may be no great scholar herself but she

can recognise intellectual fragility in others," says the source. "She once

compared Blair to her late daughter-in-law, declaring that both had `a whim

of iron'."


Although she lacks the power to order Blair to go to the country next year,

she can apply pressure on him from behind the scenes and their regular

Tuesday meetings are certain to be frosty encounters unless, or until, he

is prepared to offer her an electionfree Golden Jubilee year.


Although the forthcoming celebrations are easily the worst point of

friction that has arisen between Elizabeth Il and Tony Blair, it is by no

means their first. Early in his premiership, Blair let it be known that he

was not going to be a royal puppet. Two summers ago he told the Queen that

the date she proposed for the Prime Minister's traditional visit to

Balmoral was "inconvenient" and he and wife Cherie subsequently travelled

to Scotland on a weekend that suited them.


Old-stagers saw the writing on the wall, for it had always been accepted

that it was the PM who changed his diary to suit the monarch, never the

other way around. Courtiers immediately dubbed Blair He Who Must Be Obeyed

- a tag which apparently amused rather than annoyed the PM.


Last summer, Buckingham Palace had to let it be known - but not via Press

Secretary Alastair Campbell - that the PM was not keeping to the

traditional hour-long Tuesday audience with the sovereign. A scan of the

Court Circular shows that Blair kept the date on only nine occasions during

the first six months of last year. Caught on the back foot (which

media-obsessed Blair never is), the Palace press office put the word out

that Blair was keeping the Queen in touch by telephone instead. But did his

calls last an hour? "Er, no comment," was the hesitant, tell-tale reply.


Never before had the meetings been treated so casually. It is not only the

monarch's opportunity to be briefed on what is going on, but her

opportunity to encourage, advise and, where necessary, to use the benefit

of her vast experience to warn. She has, after all, dealt with 10 prime

ministers during her reign.


It was the Queen who told Blair that she was particularly

BOOK SAYS CIA ALTERED ART
TO SPREAD POSTWAR CULTURE,
by Laurence Zuckerman,
New York Times

 Many people remember reading George Orwell's "Animal
Farm" in high school or college, with its chilling
finale in which the farm animals looked back and forth
at the tyrannical pigs and the human farmers but found
it "impossible to say which was which."

 That ending was altered in the 1955 animated film
version, which removed the humans, leaving only the
nasty pigs. Another example of Hollywood butchering
great literature? Yes, but in this case the film's
secret producer was the Central Intelligence Agency.

 The CIA, it seems, was worried that the public might
be too influenced by Orwell's pox-on-both-their-houses
critique of the capitalist humans and communist pigs.
So after his death in 1950, agents were dispatched (by
none other than E. Howard Hunt, later of Watergate
fame) to buy the film rights to "Animal Farm" from his
widow to make its message more overtly anti-communist.

 Rewriting the end of "Animal Farm" is just one
example of the often absurd lengths to which the CIA
went, as recounted in a new book, "The Cultural Cold
War: The CIA and the World of Arts and Letters" (The
New Press) by Frances Stonor Saunders, a British
journalist. Published in Britain last summer, the book
will appear in the United States next month.

 Much of what Saunders writes about, including the
CIA's covert sponsorship of the Paris-based Congress
for Cultural Freedom and the British opinion magazine
Encounter, was exposed in the late 1960s, generating a
wave of indignation.

 But by combing through archives and unpublished
manuscripts and interviewing several of the principal
actors, Saunders has uncovered many new details and
gives the most comprehensive account yet of the period
between 1947 and 1967.

 This picture of the CIA's secret war of ideas has
cameo appearances by scores of intellectural
celebrities such as the critic Lionel Trilling, the
poets Ted Hughes and Derek Walcott and the novelists
James Michener and Mary McCarthy, all of whom directly
or indirectly benefited from the CIA's largess. There
also are bundles of cash that were funneled through
CIA fronts and several hilarious schemes that sound
more like a "Spy vs. Spy" cartoon than a historical
account.

 Traveling first class all the way, the CIA and its
counterparts in other Western European nations
sponsored art exhibitions, intellectual conferences,
concerts and magazines to press their larger
anti-Soviet agenda. Saunders provides ample evidence,
for example, that the editors at Encounter and other
agency-sponsored magazines were directed not to
publish articles directly critical of Washington's
foreign policy. She also shows how the CIA bankrolled
some of the earliest exhibits of Abstract
Expressionist painting outside of the United States to
counter the Socialist Realism being advanced by
Moscow.

 In one memorable episode, the British Foreign Office
subsidized the distribution of 50,000 copies of
"Darkness at Noon," Arthur Koestler's anti-communist
classic. But at the same time, the French Communist
Party ordered its operatives to buy up every copy of
the book. Koestler received a windfall in royalties
courtesy of his communist adversaries.

 As it turns out, "Animal Farm" was not the CIA's only
dabbling in Hollywood. Saunders reports that one
operative who was a producer and talent agent slipped
affluent-looking African-Americans into several films
as extras to try to counter Soviet criticism of the
American race problem.

 The agency also changed the ending of the movie
version of "1984," disregarding Orwell's specific
instructions that the story not be altered. In the
book, the protagonist, Winston Smith, is entirely
defeated by the nightmarish totalitarian regime. At
the end, Orwell writes, Winston realized that "He
loved Big Brother." In the movie, Winston and his
lover, Julia, are gunned down after Winston defiantly
shouts: "Down with Big Brother!"

The following recent article confirms A-albionic's theory of the
Rockefeller-Vatican Alliance vs. the traditional center of World Power,
the British Monarchy and its "Empire of the City (of London)".

What will the Brits do this time to pull their geopolitical
chestnuts out of the fire?  Many suspect they know what they did re: JFK
and Nixon!  So much for the "special relationship"?

Interesting how the Rockefellers have maneuvered themselves to
the helm.  They joined the Brits in favoring the Gulf War to preserve the
World Oil Cartel in the face of Vatican support for the Islamic bloc, but
now?

"Who decided the U.S.
 and Russia should be
 buddies and leave Great
 Britain out in the cold?"

Exclusive to the Spotlight

 By Alec De Montmorency


  President Clinton's announcement
of his forthcoming visit to Moscow to
help Boris Yeltsin celebrate the 50th
anniversary of the Allied victory over
Germany is worrisome for the
British: It indicates a decision has
been made in Washington to rebuild
the Franklin Roosevelt-Josef Stalin
Axis, as it existed when Adolf Hitler
and Stalin were dividing Poland.

  With the U.S. president habitually
so indecisive, the question is what,
or who, made him suddenly take
that direction in global affairs? Who
is dictating to him?

  The matter isn't discussed publicly.
In private, however, many remember
Airey Neave, former British Prime
Minister Margaret Thatcher's mentor,
pointing his finger at David Rocke-
feller as the principal enemy of
England in the U.S.

  It happened in the wake of the Suez
episode, when Prime Minister An-
thony Eden, ailing and disoriented,
capitulated to a joint Soviet-American
threat-from Nikolai Bulganin and
Dwight Eisenhower.

  Briefly, in June of 1956, Britain
withdrew troops from Egypt and the
Suez Canal. Four months later, on
October 29, 1956, Israel invaded
Egypt. France and Great Britain sent
troops to control the Suez Canal.

  Tbe Soviets and Americans twisted
arms in London to get the European
troops to back out.

  Officially, it was UN intervention
that brought about a truce, but it
was no secret in diplomatic circles
who did what to whom to make the
canal safe for the oil business again.

  Noting the joint U.S.-USSR covert
diplomatic operation, while the two
countries were overtly involved in a
serious Cold War, a Stockholm,
Sweden newspaper reported the
incongruity of "The Iceberg of Soviet-
American Relations," which was
apparently not so cold after all.

  It spoke of official Soviet-American -
chumminess in next-door Germany,
while Soviet tanks were rolling in
the streets of Budapest, Hungary.

  After that fiasco, there was a
secret post mortem in London to see
what could be done to avoid such a
humiliation in the future. The confab
included Winston Churchill, Lord
Salisbury and Neave.

  Only Churchill was quoted publicly:
"I don't know whether I would have
dared to undertake it (the Suez
expedition), but I certainly would
have never dared stop it."

  It was Neave who fingered David
Rockefeller as the man who had most
of the U.S. officials in his pocket and
was most interested in oil. The fate of
the Middle East oil was at stake in
Suez.

  From the officials of British Petro-
leum (BP), Neave ferreted out the
bribing technique.

  As an oil well is being sunk, when
pressure starts to build under the
drill bit, it means the gas cap of an
oil find has been penetrated. But the
well is not immediately announced a
success.

  This gives fat cat oil barons time
to offer an official of choice the
opportunity to get in on the ground
floor, buy oil acreage near the
expected discovery at its old price, as
"potential acreage," then resell at
100 times or more after it has been
declared "proven" or "probable."

  Neave also trapped Tory Prime
Minister Edward Heath by arranging
for Margaret Thatcher, then educa-
tion minister, to accompany Heath to
that year's Bilderberg meeting where
she met Rockefeller.

  She watched Rockefeller give
instructions to the prime minister to
withdraw the British forces from the
Persian Gulf area. He then circulated
the information among fellow MPs.

EMERGENCY ALERT-URGENT ACTION

Dear Peltier supporters,

At 10:30 am this morning we received a call from Ernie Stevens Jr. who
had gone into Leavenworth to visit with Leonard Peltier (he is on his
regular
visiting list).  He was told that Leonard Peltier was not in the
institution.  Leonard Peltier's attorneys have been trying and are still
trying to find out what happened.  Meanwhile, we received a message from a
prisoner at Leavenworth that Leonard
was transferred this morning.  His belongings were packed by guards who
complained that the prison authorities had known well in advance that
Leonard would be transferred and they should have told him so he could pack
his own things.  One of the guards mentioned the medical facility at
Springfield, Missouri. LEONARD HAS BEEN CLEAR THAT HE DOES NOT WANT TO BE
TRANSFERRED TO SPRINGFIELD UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.


If we find out that this is the case, we will try to put an immediate stop
to it.
Meanwhile, please call Leavenworth: 913-682-8700 and the Bureau of
Prisons at: 202-307-3198. Tell the operator that you are aware that Leonard
Peltier has been transferred and that you are concerned for his safety.  Ask
them why they have transferred him without giving any notice to him, his
attorneys, or his family.  They are supposed to give 48 hours notice before
transferring someone.  The person answering the phone will not tell you
anything, but it is important to keep the calls coming in so they know
we are paying attention.  Ask them to give your message to Warden Booker
for Leavenworth and Kathleen Hawk Sawyer for the BOP.  Please call our
office 785-842-5774, if you do, by chance, receive any information.  Please
act
on this now and ask all of your contacts to do the same.  Thank you.

Leave this poor old guy alone. Why stir up the past. What is killing
772 children compared to important issues like second amendment
rights.

Will persecuting this old guy bring them back? I doubt it. Forgive
and forget I say. After all they weren't nearly as important as the
children in Waco.

Waco happened almost a decade ago. Let's let the killers go. They are

 Nazi doctor 'killed 772 children'

 FROM ROGER BOYES IN BERLIN

 AUSTRIA will be confronted with one of the most grisly episodes from its
 Nazi past today when an 84-year-old doctor said to be known as The Scythe
 stands in the dock accused of killing mentally and physically handicapped
 children.
 It will be the first significant Nazi trial in the country since 1972, when
 two Auschwitz architects were in court , and, given the age of the
 criminals and the witnesses, is likely to be the last.

 Much hinges on the stooped figure of Heinrich Gross who would, according to
 witnesses, stride into his Vienna clinic wearing polished boots and his
 crisp Wehrmacht colonel's uniform and point to the child patients marked
 down for euthanasia.

 Austria faces up to the Hitler years only reluctantly and many citizens
 cling to the myth that the country was a victim rather than enthusiastic
 collaborator of Nazi Germany. This inability to tackle the past has helped
 the rise of the right-wing populist Jörg Haider, who in his early career
 flattered Waffen SS veterans and praised Hitler's employment policies.

 Professor Gross, a psychiatrist, joined the SA Brown Shirts in 1933, the
 Nazi party in 1938 and the Wehrmacht in 1943. After the Second World War he
 became a stalwart member of the ruling Austrian Socialist Party.

 About 688,000 Austrians were members of the Nazi party and the postwar
 Socialists quickly realised that they could not rule without the help of
 these ex-National Socialists. With political protection, Professor Gross
 rose to be one of the best paid forensic doctors and, helped by his
 clinic's unique collection of pickled brains, a respected scientist.

 Professor Gross says he remembers nothing about the Nazi years, many of
 which were spent working at the Spiegelgrund clinic, the children's section
 of Vienna's neurology institute. Nowadays he falls asleep in the middle of
 conversations and seems to lack concentration. When the trial begins his
 lawyer will plead that he is unfit to testify.

 But it is difficult to shrug off the evidence that derives in large part
 from the Nazi mania for collecting and storing scientific information.
 Professor Gross took photographs of the children he treated. The records
 are precise: 772 children died in his clinic and the professor signed the
 death certificates of 238.

 The preserved brains, kept in jars of formaldehyde in the basement,
 revealed traces of the powerful sleeping drug Luminal. Some of these
 brains, firmly identified, have been buried in a cemetery by relatives.

 Did Professor Gross order the injection of fatal doses of the drug? He
 denies it and says he opposed the Nazi programme of euthanasia for the
 mentally and physically handicapped. The death certificates bearing his
 signature give lung infection as the main cause of death. Survivors make
 clear why: drugged children were put out on the balconies in the middle of
 winter.

 The most damning evidence will come from survivors. Alois Kaufmann, 67, was
 sent to the clinic as a ten-year-old in 1943 after a school psychologist
 had designated him as "asocial". He identified Professor Gross as being the
 feared doctor known as The Scythe.

 Doctors were determined to do their bit for the war effort by researching
 the effects of cold and malnutrition on the human body.

 "They would take all the bedclothes away and put the children - even babies
 - naked on the balcony to check how long it would be before they got
 pneumonia and died," Herr Kaufmann says. It was common to duck children in
 ice-cold water and then wrap them up like mummies, again to test their
 resistance to cold.

 When Professor Gross entered the ward "we had to remain silent," recalls
 Herr Kaufmann. "We had to stand in a line and he would point at certain
 children, jabbing his finger - 'You, you, and you'. Then, you won't believe
 this, he would smile or pat the children on the heads or even give them
 sweets. The next day these children would have disappeared."

 The children had been taken to Pavilion 17, the death ward. The first to go
 were bed-wetters, those with

Subject:  War on Drugs (Updated with no dead people)

The War on Drugs is Responsible for America's Huge Crime Rate


by Kirby R. Cundiff



In 1907, when Georgia and Oklahoma made the manufacture, sale, or
transportation of intoxicating liquors illegal state wide, the homicide
rate in the United States was 1 person per 100,000 per year. [2] Before the
end of the decade, 13 states plus Alaska, Puerto Rico and the District of
Columbia had gone dry. [6] By 1919--when the 18th amendment was passed,
making alcohol use illegal nationwide--the homicide rate had grown to 8 per
100,000.  The murder rate climbed steadily until it peaked at 10 per 100,000
around 1933, when our nation admitted its mistake, and repealed the
18th amendment.  By 1943 the homicide rate had drastically shrunk to 5 per
100,000 and stayed near that level until 1964 when the United States made
the same mistake all over again. [2]

In December of 1964, having been ratified by 40 countries, the Single
Convention on Narcotic Drugs 1961 went into effect restricting narcotic
drug use to medical and scientific purposes. It also internationally
banned narcotic drug trade outside of government monopolies. [8]
History was about to repeat itself.  From 1964 to 1970 in the United States,
the number of state prisoners incarcerated for drug offenses more than
doubled from 3,079 to 6,596 (it was 90,000 in 1989) [9], and the
new concentration on enforcing victimless crimes caused the homicide rate
to skyrocket.  Between 1964 and 1970 the homicide rate doubled from 5 per
100,000 to 10 per 100,000, where it has remained, with minor fluctuations,
until today. [2]  Lyndon Johnson had declared war on drugs, to be
followed by Richard Nixon declaring War on Drugs in 1969, Ronald Reagan
declaring War on Drugs in 1982, and George Bush declaring War on Drugs in
1989. [4]

At the turn of the century, both heroin and aspirin were legally available
and sold for approximately the same amount.  Today aspirin can be purchased
at the corner drug store for 20 cents per gram; heroin costs $50 per gram.
[p. 33, 3]  The price of heroin rose drastically after it was made illegal
due to the dangers involved in its sale. Dealers are willing to kill each
other for profits obtained from such a lucrative market; junkies are willing
to rob and kill for money to support their habit--money, if drugs were legal
and cheap, that they could easily obtain by working at McDonald's.  You
and I, through high crime rates caused by the War on Drugs and high tax
rates used to support the War on Drugs, pay the price.  During prohibition
"liquor store" owners murdered each other to protect their turf just as
drug dealers do today. Today, liquor store owners are generally peaceful.
Eliminating the enormous profits involved in black-market businesses
eliminates the motive for violent crime, and therefore the violent crime.

More law enforcement is commonly touted as the answer to America's violent
crime problem. Since 1970 the percentage of the American population in
prision has tripled with no noticeable effect on the homicide rate. [2]
More than 1.3 million citizens are now in jail. [p. 24, 3] The United
States has a larger percentage of its population in prision than any
other nation [2], and still maintains the highest homicide rate in the
industralized world. [1]  We have even thrown away parts of our constitution
in the name of fighting crime. Asset forfeiture laws allow law enforcement
officers to seize the property of American citizens without even charging
them with a crime, even though the 5th amendment to the constitution clearly
states "No person shall be...deprived of life, liberty, or property,
without due process of law..." Of course if you want your property back
you do have the right to post a bond and try to prove yourself innocent,
of a crime you have not even been charged with, in a court of law.  No
attorney will be provided for you if you cannot afford one.  Over $2.4
billion worth of assets have been seized since 1985,  $664 million in
1991 alone--and in 80% of the cases no charges were ever filed. [7]

Disparities between the poor and the rich are often considered causes of
our high crime rate, but the United States has not only one of the world's
highest crime rates, but also one of the world's largest middle classes.
The religious right claims America's huge crime rate is caused by a break-down
of family values.  This would require family values breaking down suddenly
in 1907, returning in 1933, and suddenly breaking down again in 1964.
Many liberals believe that America's large

[CTRL] UNEP News Release 00/33 - NATO CONFIRMS TO THE UNITED NATIONS, USE OF DEPLETED URANIUM

2000-03-21 Thread Mrs. Jela Jovanovic, Secretary General

-Caveat Lector-   A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"
/A -Cui Bono?-

===
The Committee for National Solidarity
Tolstojeva 34, 11000 Belgrade, YU
UNEP/UNCHS News Release.  For information only.  Not an official
record.


Jointly issued by UNEP/UNCHS


NATO CONFIRMS TO THE UNITED NATIONS,  USE OF
DEPLETED URANIUM DURING THE KOSOVO CONFLICT

GENEVA, 21 March 2000 -  The North Atlantic
Treaty Organization (NATO) has confirmed to the
United Nations that depleted uranium (DU) was
used during the Kosovo conflict.  But, according
to the Joint UNEP/UNCHS Balkans Task Force (BTF)
the information provided is not of sufficient
detail to facilitate an accurate field
assessment of the environmental and human health
consequences of its us
at the present time.

The new information on DU was sent to the United
Nations  Secretary-General, Kofi Annan from NATO
Secretary-General, Lord Robertson and  states:

"DU rounds were used whenever the A-10 engaged
armour during Operation Allied Force.
Therefore, it was used throughout Kosovo during
approximately 100 missions... A total of
approximately 31,000 rounds of DU ammunition
were used in operation Allied Force.  The major
focus of these operations was in an area west of
the Pec-Dakovica-Prizren highway; in the area
surrounding Klina; in the area around Prizren;
and in an area to the north of a line joining
Suva Reka and Urosevac.  However many missions
using DU also took place outside these areas."

This information was reviewed yesterday by
scientists from the BTF's Desk Assessment Group
on Depleted Uranium - an interagency group that
was established last year as part of the United
Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)-led
assessment of the environmental consequences of
the Kosovo conflict.  Whilst welcoming the
positive cooperation of NATO, the group, which
includes experts from the World Health
Organization (WHO), the International Atomic
Energy Agency (IAEA), the UN High Commissioner
for Refugees (UNHCR), the UN Department for
Disarmament Affairs (DDA), and the Swedish
Radiation Protection Institute, concluded that
despite the additional information there was
still
insufficient data available on the exact
location of the DU ordnance to comprehensively
carry out an objective and scientifically based
environmental and
human health impact assessment in Kosovo.

The Group emphasized that the new information on
DU should not be a cause of widespread alarm.
However, it  also concluded that because of
NATO's confirmation that DU was used, the
recommendations made in their October 1999
report should be followed.  The Group's report,
which was based on the then best
available information, a hypothetical scenario
and unverified assumptions, recommends that at
places where contamination has been confirmed,
measures
should be taken to prevent access.  Local
authorities and people concerned should be
informed of the possible risks and appropriate
precautionary measures.

The conclusions of the BTF expert group have
been forwarded to the UN Secretary-General and
the heads of other concerned UN agencies, as
well as UNMIK in
Kosovo.

In the report, "The Kosovo Conflict -
Consequences for the Environment and Human
Settlements", the BTF raised the issue of the
consequences to human health and the environment
by the possible use of depleted uranium.  The
report recommended that a thorough review of the
health effects of exposure to DU should be
undertaken.

At yesterday's meeting in Geneva, the Desk
Assessment Group was advised that WHO is
preparing a more general, "generic" report on
the health effects of DU.  That report should be
available by the middle of May, 2000 and is not
specific to Kosovo.   The Royal Society (UK) is
also preparing an independent report on the
DU topic.

The issue of depleted uranium was only one part
of last year's assessment and the BTF's overall
report concluded that the Kosovo conflict did
not cause an environmental catastrophe affecting
the Balkans region as a whole, but that
pollution detected at four environmental "hot
spots" (Pancevo, Kragujevac, Novi Sad and Bor),
is serious and poses a threat to human health.
As part of the second phase of its work, the BTF
is currently preparing detailed environmental
clean-up feasibility studies (for submission to
donors) at the four mentioned sites in Serbia.

The BTF was set-up by Klaus Toepfer, Executive
Director of the United Nations Environment
Programme (UNEP) and UN Centre for Human
Settlements, UNCHS
(Habitat), in May 1999, to assess the
environmental and human settlement consequences
of the Balkans conflict. Under the leadership of
the former Finnish
Environment and Development Cooperation
Minister, Pekka Haavisto, the BTF acted on the
recommendation of an earlier UN mission to the
region that a detailed
assessment of the full extent of the
environmental impact of the conflict be urgently
carried out.   The BTF report is available on
the Web at http://www.grid.unep.ch/btf.

 It`s ironic (and frustrating)  how people have to keep desperately

Well, yes and no. FEDeral gun control is illegal. State gun laws are
not.
ANY STATE can do whatever it wants about guns. This includes a total
ban.

That is why it's such a phony issue. The elites use it to rile up the

Same with affirmative action.

The problem is they will still throw you in jail for breaking illegal
laws. GATT, NAFTA, and the federal income tax are all unconstitutional.
However, Everybody knows what happens if you refuse to pay your federal
taxes. That fact that you had
the "right" not to pay federal income tax won`t be much consolation in
prison. I completely agree on the democrats and republicans part. It`s

[CTRL] The Windsor-Bush Bloodline

2000-03-21 Thread William Shannon

-Caveat Lector-   A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"
/A -Cui Bono?-

THE WINDSOR-BUSH BLOODLINE
by David Icke

Or why George W. Bush is the favourite to be
President of the United States in the year 2000!


I have recently been sent a series of genealogical charts which detail a
bloodline and its off shoots that will be highly relevant to the readers of
The Biggest Secret.

I had no idea of their existence when I wrote The Biggest Secret. Yet it
reads like an index of the book and most, if not all, of the major players in
the advancing agenda of global control over thousands of years. These charts
are stunning confirmation that the same bloodlines have expanded their power
out of the Near and Middle East of the ancient world to control the planet
today, precisely as detailed in The Biggest Secret. For readers of The
Biggest Secret the following will prove extremely interesting:

This bloodline and its offshoots includes a long line of pharaohs in ancient
Egypt, including Rameses II (1295-1228 BC), who is considered to be the
greatest pharaoh of all. He was his country's master architect (sacred
geometry) and his name can be found on almost every ancient shrine. The gold
mines of Nubia made him rich beyond the imagination. This bloodline also
includes the extraterrestrial-human hybrids who ruled Sumer, Babylon, Greece,
and Troy, and which, today, rule the world.

One common link in this bloodline is Philip of Macedonia (382-336BC),who
married Olympias, and their son was Alexander the Great (356-323BC), a tyrant
who plundered that key region of Greece, Persia, Syria, Phoenicia, Egypt,
Babylon, the former lands of Sumer, and across into India before dying in
Babylon at the age of 33. During his rule of Egypt he founded the city of
Alexandria, one the greatest centers for esoteric knowledge in the ancient
world. Alexander was taught by the Greek philosopher, Aristotle, who in turn
was taught by Plato and he by Socrates. The bloodline and the hidden advanced
knowledge have always gone together.

This key bloodline comes down through the most famous Egyptian queen,
Cleopatra (60-30BC), who married the most famous Roman Emperor, Julius
Caesar, and bore him a son, who became Ptolemy XIV. She also bore twins with
Mark Anthony, who has his own connections to this line and its many
offshoots; this bloodline also connects to Herod the Great, the "Herod" of
the Jesus stories, and continues to the Roman Piso family who, as I explain
in The Biggest Secret, wrote the Gospel stories and invented the mythical
figure called Jesus!!; the same bloodline includes Constantine the Great, the
Roman Emperor who, in 325AD, turned Christianity, based on his ancestors'
stories, into the religion we know today, and King Ferdinand of Spain and
Queen Isabella of Castile, the sponsors of Christopher Columbus, who
instigated the horrific Spanish Inquisition (1478-1834) in which people were
tortured and burned at the stake for in any way questioning the basis of the
religion their various ancestors had created.

More than that, the most used version of the Bible was commissioned and
sponsored by another strand in the same bloodline, King James 1st of England.
Just a coincidence, nothing to worry about! The line of James, according to
genealogy sources listed below, can be traced back to 1550 BC and beyond and
includes many Egyptian pharaohs, including Rameses II.

The bloodline moved into France and northern Europe through the Franks and
Meroveus or Merovee, who gave his name to the Merovingian bloodline, and it
continues with the rest of the Merovingian clan like Clovis and the Dagoberts
who connect into the elite secret society, the Priory of Sion and the
Rennes-le-Chateau "mystery" in Languedoc [Provence], Southern France. Many
books have been written recently which claim that the Merovingians are the
bloodline of "Jesus".

Some of these authors have just been mistaken, others have blatantly sought
to confuse and mislead. The Merovingians are a key bloodline, yes, but it has
nothing to do with Jesus, who was invented by an earlier family in the same
line, the Pisos. Authors like Sir Laurence Gardner (Bloodline of the Holy
Grail and a favorite of Nexus Magazine and its owner, Duncan Roads) MUST know
this and yet they still connect the Merovingians to "Jesus". Why??

The Merovingians were Goddess Diana worshippers, as are so many in this line
to the present day. They founded the city we call Paris and on one of their
former sites of Diana ritual, Princess Diana was murdered in the Pont d'Alma
tunnel (meaning "bridge or passage of the Moon Goddess") on August 31st,
1997. As The Biggest Secret points out, the Windsors, another Merovingian
bloodline, were very much involved in this ritual murder.

From the Merovingians, this bloodline's connections to the present day
include: Charlemagne (742-814), who ruled as Emperor of the West in the Holy
Roman Empire; a stream of French kings, including Robert II, Philip Ist, II
and III, and Louis Ist, II,

Rockefeller's comment on
"population"  global "Plan"
Laurance Rockefeller and Sean Morton
Laurance Rockefeller and Sean Morton From: Date: Fri, 31 Jan 1997 13:56:17
-0500 (EST) Subject: Rockefeller's comment on "population"  global "Plan"

From: Dick Farley (Various issues.) Rockefeller Foundation and David
Rockefeller's comments follow this commentary. Relevance: Laurance
Rockefeller (David's brother); "UFOs"; "alien abduction"; MIT Conference.
Sean David Morton and "UFOlogical prophesies." Globalism.

(Note: While this following report reflects the gilded "front" of
Rockefellerian "applied philosophies" dating from their parents' "eugenics"
and "human herd management,"has been funded by Rockefellerians in pre-WWII
days, both in the U. S. and in Weimar Germany... those who are familiar with
issues in the so-called "UFO" and "paranormal" theatres, where more bizarre
Rockefellerian interests have played so much of a role recently, may be
interested in the perspective public statements such as the following play in
that family's abilities to manage news and government oversight beyond
"cursory."

Thus, erstwhile "UFO personality" and "millenialist" Sean David Morton...who
later did some "interpretive work" with the "Gulf Breeze Six" American
military personnel who went AWOL and ended up at Gulf Breeze to await Jesus
and do other biddings of their Ouija board "revelations," has commented about
allegations of "Rockefellerian" motivations.

Without giving disinformationist Morton any actual credence beyond what he's
"earned" with his early work associated with Linda Moulton Howe (on
"Sightings"), and as a self-proclaimed "prophet" who also claimed publicly
that his (Morton's) father was a "former Navy test pilot who flew at 'Area
51',"... and that he (Morton) was as a youngster a hanger-on at NASA's
Johnson Spaceflight Center, where his Dad had allegedly become part of the
NASA "PR" machinery ... your attention is drawn to two books Morton published
and sold at some "UFO" conventions, including the Los Angeles "Whole Life
Expo" in 1993, and Timothy Green Beckley's Phoenix-based "Aliens 
Conspiracies" confab, also in 1993, where Morton spoke and was "blessed" by
John Lear and other "seeders" of various "UFO" counter-fables.

Morton's pages alleged, explicitly, that "...the Rockefellers caused AIDS" to
be created and disseminated. While we have no direct information that such is
the case, philosophically it is clear from their history that the
Rockefeller's believe (and NOT for the gilded reasoning the following
carries), that the human herd is growing in the "wrong" directions. Of
course, Morton also gave during his "workshop" a perspective of the global
financial picture...following the then-recent death of the Baron Rothschild,
which Morton said triggered clandestine planetary power-struggles for control
of "$43 trillion of global resources."

The subsequent (and more recent) "apparent suicide" of a very depressed
younger Baron Rothschild, did not hurt Morton "prophesies" and his
credibiltiy with his followers, the most notable of whom is of course
himself. But keeping open minds about Morton...who undoubtedly has been
victimized at some stage in his development, unless he is a truly
accomplished actor who merits a shot at the big-time..."facts ARE facts." In
the wake of the Cold War's "ending," the forces of Good and Evil are
repositioning...just as they did at the close of World War II.

Remember...it was a devastated Germany which surrendered, NOT the Nazi's and
inheritors of Hitler's "New Age" philosophy. Others following "them" more
closely have made excellent cases that "they" are still around, and have
grown in influence, while bettering "their" camouflage. New York, Washington,
and Geneva are effective hiding places for those "possessed" by the same Dark
Spirits who brought about the "soul sacrifice" that our parents experienced
globally now half a century behind us.

Recollections from the Church Committee's Investigation of NSA
L. Britt Snider, CIA Inspector General


In January 1975, I was offered a position as counsel on the staff of the
Church Committee. I was 30, and Senator Sam Ervin, for whom I had worked
since 1971, had retired and returned to North Carolina. While I had
participated in Senator Ervin's inquiry into the domestic activities of Army
intelligence apparatus of the United States, which I now confronted, was,
quite literally, foreign to me, as it was to many of those joining the Church
Committee staff.

To make matters worse, I was given the task (along with a staff colleague
Peter Fenn1) of trying to crack what was perceived to be the most secretive
of US intelligence agencies, the National Security Agency (NSA). Unlike the
CIA and FBI, which were the agencies principally in the Committee's sights --
thanks to a number of sensational press accounts -- there had been no press
exposés about NSA. Our supervisor, in fact, seemed to take particular delight
in pitting Pete and me against this mysterious Goliath. "They call it 'No
Such Agency,' " he said. "Let's see what you boys can find our about it." It
was the first time I had heard the agency referred to this way, and it was
not long before I understood why.

What ensued was something of an odyssey that lasted over the better part of a
year. It began with a series of fruitless, sometimes comical, efforts to
penetrate NSA's defenses. ("They must have done something" our boss wailed.)
Then, an unexpected breakthrough caused us to redirect our inquiry along two
separate, but ultimately converging lines; Peter took the lead on one
inquiry, and I took the other lead. Over a period of months, a story emerged
that previously had not seen the light of day -- a story that had long-term
implications for NSA and for the relationship of the Intelligence Community
to the private sector. Our work also provided the context for a rare
Congressional challenge to the President's authority in the national security
area.

I decided to write about this episode primarily to preserve it for the
historical record. While much of the story was disclosed over the course of
the Church Committee's inquiry, there were aspects that never became public.
Given the way the Committee operated, no one other than the staffers doing
the work knew the whole story.

Initial Futility

We began by asking the Congressional Research Service (CRS) for everything on
the public record that referred to NSA. The CRS soon supplied us with a
one-paragraph description from the Government Organization Manual and a
patently erroneous piece from Rolling Stone magazine. Striking out there, I
paid visits to the Senate Armed Services and Appropriations Committees. which
were responsible for NSA's annual funding. Only one staff person on each
committee was cleared for NSA information, and I managed to obtain
appointments with each. Both committees had budget and program data on NSA,
but nothing that dealt with oversight. Neither of the staffers I interviewed
was aware of NSA ever doing anything to raise oversight concerns. "You've got
to understand," I was told, "they focus on foreign targets."

Regrouping, Peter and I decided to try to identify some former NSA employees
willing to spill the beans on their old agency. Using the connections of
others on the staff, we managed to identify a handful of NSA retirees living
in the Washington area whom we contacted and interviewed. While we were
encouraged by their willingness to talk with us, the most egregious "abuses"
we were told about were complaints about how NSA allocated its parking spaces
among employees and about a few cases of time and attendance fraud. None of
the people we interviewed had any knowledge of NSA's having undertaken
surveillance against American citizens. It became clear to us from these
interviews that NSA's operations were so compartmented that, unless we had
the right person, others were not apt to know. How, though, did we find the
right person? At that point, we did not even have an organization chart.

We decided to try the front door and asked for a meeting with the Director.
It was our first trip to Fort Meade, and, although our visit predated the
construction of the "new" headquarters building, the size of the old complex
was daunting. NSA was housed in an enormous glass edifice, with large
parabolic antennas on its roof and surrounded by acres of parking lots. We
were given visitors' spaces near the main entrance and were met by our
broadly smiling "handlers." After going through the normal security checks,
we were escorted to the top floor into the large and

U.S. Plans for Mock Terrorist Attacks Get Mixed Response From Top Officials
BY DAVID S. CLOUD

WASHINGTON -- The U.S. is spending millions of dollars to stage several mock
terrorist attacks in late May to test the preparedness of top government
officials. Unfortunately, most of them probably won't be paying much
attention.

The Justice Department will stage at least three and as many as six
rapid-fire mock attacks at a cost of between $3.5 million and $6 million. The
exercise is designed to test how the government would respond if a foreign
terrorist group released biological agents, chemical weapons and radiation,
and hacked into computer networks, in three locales: Denver, Portsmouth,
N.H., and outside Washington, D.C.

The idea behind the exercise was to test whether top officials were ready to
respond if terrorists struck. But so far, the only top officials who have
agreed to participate in the 10-day role-playing exercise are Attorney
General Janet Reno and Federal Emergency Management Director James Lee Witt.

Some top officials who would be involved in any real attacks are saying
privately that this one, dubbed Topoff for top officials, bears little
relation to reality. Letters went out several months ago asking the cabinet
officials to participate, but none has given a firm commitment, according to
people involved.

Aides Likely to Attend

As the date of the exercise approaches, "we have a few commitments, and we're
looking to get more," says Ted Macklin, the director of exercises at the
Justice Department Office of State and Local Domestic Preparedness. Health
and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala is expected to participate, he
added. Other cabinet secretaries are expected to designate aides to attend.

Planners would like to convene a meeting during the exercise of the so-called
principals committee, which includes national security adviser Samuel "Sandy"
Berger, Defense Secretary William Cohen and Army Gen. Henry Shelton, chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. But National Security Council aides aren't
being too encouraging. "It's unrealistic to expect that someone who has a
major department to run will sit in a room for days doing something like
this," says a person involved in the planning.

Details of the exercise are being kept quiet, since it is supposed to
surprise those involved. But people knowledgeable about the planning say it
will be the largest test ever devised of the government's ability to respond
to potential terrorist attacks.

Police and rescue units will be deployed. Streets will be blocked off and
hundreds of volunteer "victims" will be transported to hospitals. Federal
counterterrorism units from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the
Pentagon will be activated and flown in to enhance the realism.

Critics Cite Potential Problems

Critics in the government say the sheer scale of the exercise is the problem.
It's highly unlikely that three or more terrorist attacks would occur at
about the same time, they maintain, while the costs of the exercises would
stretch existing resources.

All of this is unfolding because of a provision inserted in an appropriations
bill two years ago by Republican Sen. Judd Gregg of New Hampshire, directing
the administration to "practice operations" in the event of a terrorist
attack, including "all key personnel" who would take part if such an attack
occurred.

Administration officials note that cabinet members and other top officials
gathered at the White House in 1998 for a day-long planning session on how to
respond to a major terrorist attack.

Mr. Gregg specified that the exercise should be handled by contractors "with
a known track record" in staging such events. The Justice Department hired
two consulting firms stocked with former government officials and military
officers who worked in counterterrorism: Science Applications International
Corp. and Research Planning Inc.

It has taken more than a year and the involvement of hundreds of state and
local officials to plan the exercise. Few were surprised, however, when
planners chose Portsmouth, in Mr. Gregg's home state, as the location for for
one of the mock attacks.

The Libertarian
by Vin Suprynowicz

If you liked Bien Hoa,
you'll love Bogota

 A ttempting to prove Democrats aren't the only big spenders around,
Congressional Republicans planned to push a measure through a House committee
last week ponying up $9 billion for U.S. operations in the Balkans and "anti-
drug efforts" in Colombia -- nearly double what President Clinton requested.

Does anyone imagine we're going to hand over that kind of cash to the torturers
of Bogota without putting someone on the ground to supervise how the fields get
burned? I've thus offered to organize an office pool to choose the date when
we'll be able to recycle the Kennedy-Johnson era headline: "White House
acknowledges Colombian 'advisers' authorized to carry weapons in combat zones."
Meantime, do you suppose we can get Country Joe and the Fish out of retirement
to sing: "And it's 1, 2, 3, what are we fighting for? Don't ask me I'm really
keen, to fire-bomb Medellin"?

Speaking of the failed and oppressive war on guns and drugs, it's the Chicago
Tribune that's now negotiating to buy the failing Los Angeles Times, where
management admits circulation dropped by 20 percent, and profits slipped from
22 percent to 6.5 percent, after the paper's editorial page started calling in
1993 for a national ban on private ownership of handguns and most rifles.
(Thanks for pointing out that correlation to J. Neil Schulman, a former Times
reader and author of "Stopping Power: Why 70 Million Americans Own Guns.")

It was the staid old Chicago Tribune that saw fit on Feb. 7 to run an excellent
opinion piece by Salim Muwakkil, headlined "A record politicians aren't talking
about":

"This month the nation will mark two paradoxical milestones," Mr. Muwakkil
pointed out. "The economic expansion has become the longest in history and the
prison population will reach 2 million. Because economic vitality tends to
dampen criminal behavior, those disparate benchmarks seem to confound
conventional wisdom. Why are the jails filling up while the economy is roaring
along?"

Mr. Muwakkil finds his answer in four words, of course: The War On Drugs.

When Ronald Reagan took office, America's prison population was about 500,000.
"It has quadrupled since then and a high percentage of that increase is drug-
related. ... With just 5 percent of the world's population, the U.S. has a
quarter of the world's prisoners."

Then-Gov. Bill Clinton specifically restored the right of his brother's
convicted cocaine peddler, Dan Lassiter, to carry a gun in Arkansas (the Wall
Street Journal ran a photostat of the document on its editorial page.) He even
called upon "rehabilitated" brother Roger to take a bow at his Democratic
nominating convention (no hard time for these rich white guys.) Both partys'
leading presidential candidates now either admit to being former users of
illegal drugs like marijuana and cocaine, or duck the issue with a feeble "no
comment."

Voters in seven states and Washington, D.C., have now overwhelmingly voted to
legalize medical use of marijuana -- though cops have ignored those votes and
continued to bust sick marijuana patients like Steve Kubby and Peter
McWilliams, anyway.

"This nation's enormous incarceration rate is a social catastrophe that should
be a major focus of our political discourse," Mr. Muwakkil concludes. But,
"rather than burst the bubble of pretense that surrounds the idiotic drug war,
national politicians prefer to push their heads even further into the sand."

And speaking of the ongoing attempts by the state of California to imprison and
thus kill adrenal cancer survivor Steve Kubby (kept alive only by medical
marijuana) -- Mr. Kubby, of course, was the 1996 gubernatorial candidate of the
California Libertarian Party, actively campaigning for California's successful
medical marijuana initiative. His home was then raided as punishment for that
political activism after Golden State voters legalized such marijuana use.
Mr. Kubby writes, "Last week, everything was on the line for us. If the judge
ruled against us, we would be forced immediately into trial, without witnesses
or the right to use the medical marijuana defense we helped put into law. If we
were convicted on even one count, our attorneys told us we would be handcuffed,
jailed, and our children taken from us. It would take months or years to win an
appeal, long after I had died in prison from my cancer.

"We faced a terrible choice: accept a plea bargain that would only require
probation and save our family -- or hold out for a favorable decision from the
judge.

"As the judge stepped onto the bench, one of the prosecutors turned and looked
directly at me. He was smiling, thoroughly pleased with himself, and wanted me
to know it. We were only about 10 feet away so I could clearly see his face and
his intent.

"The prosecutor's

  Movements aren’t born on the Internet. The digital realm can’t
supply the mysterious spark
  that turns an obscure cause into a widespread passion, that
motivates scattered individuals
  to take collective action.

  But once people are in motion, the Internet is an agitator’s
dream: fast, cheap, far-reaching.
  Grassroots movements of all kinds increasingly use listserves
and discussion groups to
  coordinate their work. Email is beginning to do away with the
expensive chore of stuffing
  envelopes, long a staple of activist life. And with the
planetary reach of the World Wide Web,
  activist networks are globalizing at nearly the pace of the
corporate order they oppose.

  For radical and alternative media, the potential is enormous.
One striking example: During
  the Seattle WTO protests and their aftermath, the Independent
Media Center
  (www.indymedia.org) logged a stunning 2 million hits on its
website, which broadcast
  firsthand reports from the streets.

  However, a "digital divide" in computer and Internet access
remains between the haves and
  have-nots, which in the United States often means whites and
people of color. Such
  disparities carry over into grassroots organizing: Even a group
as large and media-savvy as
  Reverend Al Sharpton’s National Action Network is not yet
online.

  What follows is a tiny sampling of what’s out there, a guided
tour to some of the best radical
  gathering spots on the Web:

CORPORATE GLOBALIZATION
  The best place to hook up with the fight against corporate
globalization is the A16 website
  (www.a16.org). This site is the online hub for the main
coalition planning the
  sure-to-be-splashy April 16 protests in Washington, D.C., which
will target the annual
  meeting of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund.

  Be sure to read Elizabeth Martinez’s influential essay on this
burgeoning movement, "Where
  Was the Color in Seattle? Looking for Reasons Why the Great
Battle Was So White"
  (http://www.zmag.org/CrisesCurEvts/Globalism/seattlkecolor.htm)

  To study globalization issues in greater depth, check out the
excellent reading list offered by
  San Francisco’s Modern Times Bookstore
(http://www.mtbs.com/globalization.htm). Or
  subscribe to Essential Action’s Stop-imf listserve, which posts
1-5 messages per day on
  topics relating to the IMF, structural adjustment, and Third
World debt (Send email to
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "subscribe" in the
body of the message).

  Finally, a comprehensive resource guide on corporate
globalization can be found on Global
  Exchange’s website
(http://www.globalexchange.org/wbimf/links.html) .

  DIRECT ACTION
  At the upcoming A16 World Bank/IMF protests, you can expect the
streets to be filled with
  music, art, exuberance, and blockades -- much as they were in
Seattle, until the police
  started lobbing gas canisters into the crowd.
  This spirited protest style owes much to Reclaim the Streets, a
worldwide phenomenon, little
  known in the United States, that was born five years ago out of
the convergence of England’s
  anti-road-building movement and underground rave scene
(http://www.gn.apc.org/rts).

  RTS played a major role in the even less-well-known J18
protest, a crucial activist watershed
  (http://www.j18.org). This June 1999 day of anti-capitalist
action around the world coincided
  with a G8 global superpower summit in Germany, and pointed the
way to Seattle and
  beyond. Learn more at the Mid-Atlantic Infoshop’s indispensable

How They Oppress Us
The War Party’s slow denial of our freedom

THE PICTURE THAT STILL FOOLS THE WORLD
If you have not read Justin Raimondo’s column on Wednesday covered the
sinister, yet unsurprising verdict in the Living Marxism libel trial then I
will give you a quick run down. Living Marxism (renamed LM) was taken to task
by ITN (the "Independent" Television News company) for exposing their shoddy
journalism when they manufactured a death camp scene for the sake of easy
headlines. For their pains they are facing bills of up to $1 million, the
result being another bankrupted critic of the war party. The libel trial is of
more than British domestic significance, as it is now becoming clear that any
attack on the motives of our rulers is now to be met with the full force of the
law.

FOR THOSE WHO MISSED IT
The case was, remember, the refugee camp that was filmed to look like a
concentration camp – with the picture and attached lurid headlines going around
the world. The fact that the whole episode was caught on video camera and
expert testimony pointed to the fact that these were unpleasant refugee camps
(with rather better conditions than the Kosovan Serbs can expect) rather than
death camps were ruled inadmissible by the corrupt Judge, Justice Morland. The
truth, it seems, is no longer an absolute defence when you attack the
establishment. After all if the jury had actually been presented with the facts
in this case they would very likely have come to the wrong conclusion – that
although all refugees suffer in war, the Serbs were not a uniquely evil race
that deserved to be bombed.

ITN – THE LIGHT ENTERTAINMENT PROGRAMME
Many British people thought that the ostensible reason for the libel trial –
the protection of ITN’s reputation – was rather humorous. ITN is not, shall we
say, respected. The main thing that ITN is remembered for is the ridiculously
trite (more trite than the rest of the news) "and finally" piece which covers
such matters of grave concern as postmen who double up as cabaret singers. ITN
is known as tabloid television. It may not be gratuitously violent, but it is
focussed on the easy to analyse human interest stories that our most downmarket
tabloid newspapers reject for their lack of consequence. In short, if I had
ITN’s reputation for lightweight journalism I’d want to lose it, not protect
it.

LM – WHY THE LEFT HATE THEM
Which brings us to the other protagonist, LM. LM was founded as Living Marxism
and was for a time the organ of the rather odd Revolutionary Communist Party.
The RCP was a rather odd left wing group throughout the 1980s. They took a,
well, unorthodox view of what was involved in being either revolutionary or
communist. Although they were pro-immigration and pro-abortion (pro-choice
hardly describes their stance) they were also believers in the sort of social
and economic freedom that the left do not always espouse. Their best line was
the instruction to their followers to vote or Thatcher to bring forward the
revolution. So hated were they by the student Marxists of the 1970s and 1980s
(who make up today’s Labour administration) that the rumour was always that
they were a CIA front. Well that is definitely not the case now, is it?

THE USES OF LIBEL
Libel has been a favourite tool of the British establishment to blunt unwelcome
criticism. One prominent example has been the use of libel laws to silence all
speculation on the British role in the slaughter of Chetnik prisoners of war.
As part of the aftermath of the Second World War, the communist government of
Yugoslavia wanted domestic opponents delivered to them. Britain had 20,000
Chetnik prisoners, which they delivered to certain death at the hands of the
Yugoslav partisans. One of the commanding officers in charge of this handover
was Harold Macmillan, a Conservative MP who would later become Prime Minister.
These are the facts. The controversy lies over whether or not the British were
aware of the Yugoslav intentions or were stupid. The official story is that
they were stupid, the consequences otherwise would be that the British had been
accessory to the murder of 20,000 prisoners of war. The story was not
uncontested. Count Nicolai Tolstoy is an Englishman whose name, ancestry and
title are Russian. He claimed that the officers were well aware of the fate of
their charges, and accepted this as the price of appeasing Uncle Joe Stalin.
Whatever the real facts of the case (I have not studied the case – and so am
not sure) this deserved to be debated and not suppressed. But would it be a
surprise if it had not been debated and the case had been suppressed in a
record libel win of $2 million, bankrupting the unrepentant count? Thought not.

NASA knew Mars Polar Lander doomed

United Press International - March 21, 2000 15:01

By James Oberg, UPI Space Writer

HOUSTON, March 21 (UPI) -- The disappearance of NASA's Mars Polar
Lander last December was no surprise to space officials, UPI has
learned.

Prior to its arrival at Mars, a review board had already identified a fatal
design flaw with the braking thrusters that doomed the mission, but
NASA withheld this conclusion from the public.

The probe was lost while attempting to land near the martian south pole on
December 3. Two small microprobes which had deployed
separately also were never heard from again.

It was the second expensive setback for American interplanetary
exploration in less than three months. On September 23, a companion
probe
had been destroyed when a navigation error sent it skimming too deeply
into the atmosphere of Mars.

Following these failures, NASA commissioned several expert panels to
review the accidents and recommend improvements in NASA
procedures.

A source close to the panel probing the second accident has told UPI that
its conclusions are "devastating" to NASA's reputation. Unlike the
previous accident, where management errors merely prevented the
recognition of other human errors, in this case it was a management
misjudgment which caused the fatal flaw in the first place.

"I'm as certain as I can be that the thing blew up," the source concluded.

As explained privately to UPI, the Mars Polar Lander vehicle's braking
thrusters had failed acceptance testing during its construction. But
rather than begin an expensive and time-consuming redesign, an unnamed
space official simply altered the conditions of the testing until the
engine passed.

"That happened in middle management," the source told UPI. "It was done
unilaterally with no approval up or down the chain of command."

The Mars Polar Lander employed a bank of rocket engines which use
hydrazine fuel. The fuel is passed through metal grates which cause it to
decompose violently, creating the thrust used by the engines.

These metal grates are called "catalyst beds," or "cat beds." Their purpose
is to initiate the explosive chemical reaction in the hydrazine.

"They tested the cat bed ignition process at a temperature much higher
than it would be in flight," UPI's source said. This was done because
when the cat beds were first tested at the low temperatures predicted after
the long cruise from Earth to Mars, the ignition failed or was too
unstable to be controlled.

So the test conditions were changed in order to certify the engine
performance. But the conditions then no longer represented those most
likely to occur on the real space flight.

Following the September loss of the first spacecraft due to management
errors, NASA had initiated a crash review of the Mars Polar Lander
to identify any similar oversights. According to UPI's source, the flaws in the
cat bed testing were uncovered only a few days before the landing
was to occur on December 3.

By then it was too late to do anything about it.

Garbled rumors of some temperature-related design flaw circulated in the
days before the landing attempt. However, as in the September
case when space officials possessed terrifying indications of imminent
failure even before the arrival at Mars, NASA made no public
disclosure of these expectations.

The Mars Polar Lander investigation team has also reportedly identified a
second fatal design flaw that would have doomed the probe even if
the engines had functioned properly.

The three landing legs of the probe contain small microswitches which are
triggered when the legs touch the surface. This signal commands
the engines to cease firing.

Post-accident tests have shown that when the legs are initially unfolded
during the final descent, springs push them so hard that they "bounce"
and trigger the microswitches by accident. As a result, the computer
receives what it believes are indications of a successful touchdown, and it
shuts off the engines.

Since this false signal actually occurs high in the air, the engine shutdown
automatically leads to a free fall and destructive high-speed impact.

Ground testing prior to launch apparently never detected this because each
of the tests was performed in isolation from other tests. One team
verified that the legs unfolded properly. Another team verified that the
microswitches functioned on landing.

No integrated end-to-end test was performed due to budget and time
constraints. But UPI has been privately told that "this has been
reproduceable on a regular basis" in post-flight tests.

Perhaps by coincidence, in a safety memo to NASA employees distributed
on March 20, NASA administrator Dan Goldin stressed "the
importance of adequate testing." Reliability, he said, "requires well-thought-
out verification and test activities."

Goldin explicitly described the adverse impact of "our difficulties with

 Well Americans here comes the sell out of our Rights by Clinton/Gore
 by using our tax dollars to intimidate and blackmail these companies via
 loss of revenue to sell us out.

 The Wall Street Journal front-page news box is topped with a report
 saying that pistol-maker Glock is likely to follow Smith and Wesson in
 accepting sweeping restrictions on its business practices in return for
 protection from government handgun lawsuits. The story notes that the
 company relies heavily on sales to police departments and hence would be

 particularly vulnerable to a new strategy of some federal and local law
 enforcement agencies: preferring to buy guns from companies that sign
 the sort of agreement Smith and Wesson did. The NYT runs a story inside
 that says that those endorsing the new buying strategy are HUD, and the
 mayors of Atlanta, Detroit, and Miami-Dade County. The WSJ story says
 that despite the gun industry's widespread condemnation of SW's move,
 executives of several companies were privately discussing how they might
 open lines of communication with the White House.

Effects of sexual abuse long-lasting, say experts by MEREDITH GOAD, Staff
Writer
Blethen Maine Newspapers Inc.

"Boys and girls who are sexually abused during adolescence can experience
long-lasting psychological damage that leads to a variety of problems in
adulthood. Although sexual abuse is painful no matter who it happens to,
adolescent boys who are abused by other males carry a special burden, experts
say. They are much less likely than girls to report the abuse."

"It is possible for men who have been sexually abused to heal on their own
and go on to live productive lives, experts say. The process can be hastened,
however, with professional help, especially if the whole family gets
counseling. But if the abuse is kept secret, or the victim does not get the
support he needs, the abuse becomes "this festering kind of seed,"..."

Subject: [M-I] United Nations is United Nazis


 I dare you to look at this picture of UN peacekeeper atrocity which is
 attached. Do you wish to see more of the truth?
 What is the purpose of the United Nations? Where did it come from and
where is it going?
 Is the United Nations a vehicle for a One-World Government? What are
the
 Militias raving about?

 First, take into consideration the MASONIC MOTTO : ORDO AB CHAO or
"Order out of Chaos". If indeed there was a global conspiracy to create
a
 one-world government, then there would have to be WORLD WARS in order
 to create a NEED FOR PEACE.
 Once those World Wars have been fought, then it would be alot easier to
bring
in a One-world Governing Body to Unite the Nations of the World.Who do
you
think financed the World Wars?
  Who do you think created the United Nations?

Thankfully, we have authors with VERY HIGH CREDENTIALS Like Antony
Sutton, who worked as a fellow researcher at the HOOVER INSTITUTE, who
has written a number of incredible books over the last 20 or 30 years
exposing the WALL STREET BANKERS as the source of financing for the
build-up
of the Soviet Union from 1917 through the 1970's and beyond as well as
the financing of the HITLER war machine in NAZI Germany. Sutton
 explains that the reasoning behind this lunacy is at the root "Hegelion
Philosophy". The "Group", otherwise known as "Skull and Bones" the super
secret society from Yale, all have taken
time studying over in Germany under Hegelian philosophers. The Hegelian
Philosophy asserts a thesis and antithesis.

 Create CONFLICT, create PROFIT, and come up with a synthesis. Have you
ever notoced that our society is becoming more of a SYNTHESIS of
SOCIALISM,
COMMUNISM, and an OBSCURED form of CAPITALISM. Well the United Nations
was
the Synthesis /Solution to the World Wars.

Sutton has written extensively on these issues in his volumous books
including
"Western Technology and Soviet Economic Development 1917-1971 (3
Volumes). "Wall
Street and the rise of Hitler", "Wall Street and FDR", "National
Suicide:
Military Aid to the Soviet Union","Trilaterals over Washington", "Gold
vs. Paper", "Energy : The Created Crises","Wall Street and the Bolshevic
Revolution",
"America's Secret Establishment : An Introduction to the Order of Skull
and
Bones", (The 1st book to officially expose this secret banking
fraternity) in
1984, and "The Two Faces of George Bush", which goes into  George Bush
and his
Father's background with Brown Brothers and Harriman Bankers and the
Morgan Stanley Bank.

From "America's secret establishment : An Introduction to the Order of
skull
and bones", "The FIRST chairman of an influencial but almost unknown
organization established in 1910 was also a member of the Order. In 1920
Theodore Marburg
founded the American Society for the Judicial Settlement of
International
Disputes, but Marburg was only the President. The FIRST Chairman was
member William Howard Taft. (1878 Initiated into Skull and
Bones).

(Taft's father Alfonso Taft was one of the two original founders of
Skull
and Bones in 1832).The Society was the forerunner to the League to
enforce
the Peace, which developed into the League of Nations concept and
ultimately
into the United Nations." ..."In United Nations we find for example,
that
Archibald McLeash (Initiated into Skull and Bones in 1915) was the
brains behind the UNESCO organization."

  The FREEMASONS have been trying to create a One-World Government for
a very long time. Even going back as recently in history as 1917, they
attempted to
create an international congress of Unified Nations. This is NOT a
recent plan. That is what must be understood.

 Centralization of control is always sought by people exercising
control.The Secret Societies under the control of Freemasonry have
worked long
and hard for their plan and are not about to give up. We are in the New
World Order, where LINES and BORDERS are being chipped away in favor of
GLOBALIZATION and
TRADE BARRIERS are slowly coming down as well.

   This Economic hegenomy is meant to create an ARTIFICIAL DEPENDENCE of
one Nation upon another. This will ultimately lead to a domino effect if
the boat is rocked at all, thus causing econimic emergencies of a global
proportion which
it will be claimed only the United Nations can or will be permitted to
solve.
Just like the Central Federal Government, Taxes and like means of
support will have to be EXTRACTED from the American People in order to
support the MONSTROUS CREATION.

 There have been reports of Torture at the hands of U.N. Troops, while
they are supposed to be "Peacekeepers". WHAT A LIE! Would you consider

 Warner forced to halt distribution of Travolta film, Battlefield Earth?

 Just weeks before its scheduled opening, will Warner Brothers, Morgan
Creek,
 and Franchise Pictures, be forced to halt the distribution of the new $80
 million Travolta Film, Battlefield Earth? Perhaps, and surprisingly the
 reason will not be the horrible reviews. Neither will it be allegations of
 false advertising in the movie's trailer, which claims the film is based
on
 one of the best selling science fiction books of all time. Neither will it
 be the publicity surrounding the involvement of the world's most dangerous
 cult, as revealed in a scathing Washington Post article [Nov 28, 1999,
 http://washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/style/A48280-1999Nov26.html], or the fact
 that this cult may make a fortune from Battlefield Earth toys by
 Trendmaster. The reason Warner Brothers may be forced to halt distribution
 is a new allegation that the movie contains sophisticated subliminal
 messages designed to get you into the cult of Scientology.

 Outrageous as it sounds, this allegation stems from a credible source.
Over
 the last 20 years the non-profit organization F.A.C.T.Net and its
 predecessors have supported individuals who have left Scientology or are
in
 the process of leaving Scientology, helping them to tell their stories of
 abuse and systematic criminality. The following information was provided
to
 F.A.C.T.Net by individual(s) we deem to be credible and who had direct
 and/or indirect access to Scientology's highest executive circle and its
 most sensitive information concerning the Battlefield Earth project. The
 story is told from an insider's perspective of Scientology. This
information
 has been reconstructed in a manner to best protect the identity of the
 source(s), thus providing some protection from Scientology retaliation to
 the individual(s) and family members. The source(s) providing this
 information ask that each person evaluate the factuality, relevance, and
 implications of this information for oneself.

 snip

 Miscavige held many brainstorming sessions on how to create this series of
 movies that would ultimately save Earth by saving Scientology by getting
 floods of new people to join. The following areas were just some of the
 areas discussed and evaluated in detail:
 1. That there as no down side to making a science fiction movie because we
 have already been branded as a UFO cult.
 2. That science fiction was hot with children (Teens and young adults were
 our key recruiting target audience).
 3. A science fiction script was the best place to hide the Hubbard world
 view and Scientology belief system because so much of Hubbard's science
 fiction closely paralleled Scientology anyway. And if discovered, there
was
 a powerful plausible deniability factor in that we could always continue
 claiming it was just science fiction.
 4. The movie would have two main purposes. One, to mass-recruit new people
 into Scientology, and two, to attack our enemies through the movie's
 dialogue and symbolism.

 snip

 First, convince Travolta
 that to show his true loyalty to Scientology and to Scientology's goal of
 clearing (controlling) the planet, he must demand in his next movie
contract
 with Warner,
 that Warner distribute the new Battlefield Earth film.

 Second, contact a Warner heir who had been recruited into Scientology and
 similarly demand
 this person use inside influence to again ensure Warner distribute the
 film. It took these steps, plus a lot more arm-twisting by Miscavige with
 some of Hollywood's biggest Scientology-connected power brokers, to get
 Warner to take on the project. Eventually Warner capitulated because they
 basically either had to distribute the film or lose Travolta.

 snip

 More meetings were held focusing exclusively on how we would ensure that
we
 would get the desired recruiting result from the movie. It was suggested
 that the only way to guarantee results was to secretly put subliminal
 messages in
 the film as or after it was being created. Messages were discussed such
as:
 "Buy the Dianetics
 book," "Find out about Scientology now," and one that put everyone into
 stitches, "Hate psychiatry, psychiatrists, and drug companies."

 Someone (I did not know who) apparently had already been researching using
 Subliminals. This person said that they could buy the ability to imbed
 images and messages within other images from some foreign advertising
 companies who had mastered it. They said they also had
 access to some eastern bloc government research which detailed new ways to
 imbed subliminal messages into video, in which the messages simply could
not
 be
 found without detailed knowledge of these specific imbedding techniques.

 There was a heated discussion about this being illegal and that if we got

Scientology and the various promoters of same over the years.  Any group which 
practices a form of "mind control" so blatant on its own members, AND which is looking

means of manipulation.  Its effectiveness in the long run can be questioned but the

It is certainly a good thing when people are brought to justice for the crimes they 
commit, especially "FORMER" Nazis like this guy, BUT need I point out how HYPOCRITICAL 
it is to put this man on trial and to virtually deny the actions of many others, right 
here at home in the USA, as well as some from Japan (of WWII vintage).  It is always

Justice Dept. Lied!

US attorney Denied tests show weapons fire. Confidential sources
say weekend tests prove Government murdered Davidians.

by William Cooper

Copyright 2000 VERITAS News Service All Rights Reserved

VNS Exclusive March 21, 2000 — A US Attorney spokesman for
the Justice Department blatantly lied during a press conference
Monday when he said the Waco FLIR tests conducted over the
weekend support the governments position that the flashes seen are
“glints,” or “reflections,” of light off of debri around the Davidian
Church. Confidential sources inform me that the test videos do not
reveal light “glints,“ or “reflections“ but instead prove beyond any
shadow of a doubt that the government attacked and intentionally
murdered the Branch Davidians when they attempted to flee their
burning Church.

The government has always denied any shots were fired by any
government personnel on April 19, 1993. Furthermore the Justice
Department has claimed that the flashes on the FLIR videos are not
gunfire but are “glints,” or “reflections”. All independent experts who
have examined the tapes have confirmed that indeed it can only
weapons fire directed at the Davidian Church by someone who was
working for the United States government.

Here is the kicker. While night vision scopes will “see” light, FLIR or
Forward Looking Infra Red cameras cannot and do not ever “see” or
“capture” any light from any source or reflection whatsoever. FLIR
can only see or pickup the infrared or heat portion of the
electromagnetic spectrum. You see, the government has been lying all
along in hopes of convincing the ignorant amongst us, and yes that
includes judges and Branch Davidian attorneys, that the gunfire is
really flashes of light captured on the video tapes... an impossibility
where FLIR is concerned.

Confidential sources, Patriots in government, tell me that military
personnel from Delta Force, upon orders of the President of the
United States, entered the Branch Davidian Church on April 19,
1993 and executed everyone that they could find who was still alive.
Members of Delta Force in support of armored vehicles, and FBI
snipers, murdered all of the Davidians who attempted to flee the fire.
Only those Davidians were allowed to survive who escaped on the
side of the building which was in the direct view of reporters using
telescopic lenses.

The government began their lies on February 28, 1993. They have
never stopped lying about what really transpired in Waco, Texas
ever-since. They lied in the affidavit used to obtain the warrant. They
lied about the true reason for the raid on the Church. They lied about
who fired the first shot. They lied to the American public and to the
Branch Davidians during the seige. They lied to the Governor of
Texas to justify the use of military personnel and equipment. They lied
about what Branch Davidians said and did during the 51 days of the
seige. They lied about what they intended to do on April 19, 1993.
They lied about what they actually did on that infamous day. They lied
about who started the fire. They lied when they said they never fired a
shot on April 19th. They lied about what was found in the ashes. They
manipulated evidence. They made evidence disappear. They turned
off electricity to the coolers in which bodies were stored in order to
insure decomposition before examination. They intimidated and
controlled the press. They intimidated and controlled the medical
examiner and coronor to manipulate the results of the autopsys. And
they lied about a lot of other things.

They have lied, and lied, and lied. And now they lie about so-called
“glints” or “reflections” of light off of junk around the Church... light
that could not ever have been captured on video by FLIR. Light that
FLIR does not and cannot “see”...

2000-03-21 Thread Rock4Life





GOA Announces Boycott of Clinton  Wesson
  -- Sell-out worse than originally reported

Gun Owners of America E-Mail/FAX Alert
8001 Forbes Place, Suite 102, Springfield, VA 22151
Phone: 703-321-8585 / FAX: 703-321-8408
http://www.gunowners.org


(Tuesday, March 21, 2000) -- Last week's "agreement" between Smith 
Wesson and the Clinton Administration will undoubtedly be remembered
as one of the most regretful episodes in the modern Right to Keep
and Bear Arms movement.  The firearms manufacturer's lamentable
decision to "settle" with the most anti-gun Administration in
history cannot go without a pointed response by all those who
seriously cherish and believe in the God-given right of individual
self defense.

The so-called settlement between Smith  Wesson and the Departments
of Treasury, Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and local and state
governments is more a nationalization of the British-owned firm
which now, for the sake of accuracy, should be renamed the "The
Clinton  Wesson Corporation." (More on this in just a moment.)

The Clinton Administration has achieved nearly every outrageous
demand in its original lawsuit without having to prove its case in a
court of law.  This sellout agreement creates an "Oversight
Commission" that will include four government officials (one from
the BATF) and a Smith  Wesson executive.

The Clinton  Wesson commission will have the power of law to
enforce gun control upon any gun dealer that sells SW products and
upon any gun owner that buys from such a dealer!!!  This is European
fascism at its best, and is much more draconian than what has been
reported in the media.  Consider just some of the highlights:

Restrictions On Individual Gun Owners

   * Gun rationing:  Any gun dealer that carries SW products can
NOT sell you two handguns on the same day... or during the same
week!!!  (No more than one handgun during a 14-day period.)

   So let's get this straight:  a total gun ban in England has
neither stopped 3 million illegal guns from getting into criminal
hands nor stopped their crime rate from exceeding ours.  But somehow
gun rationing here is going to keep criminals from getting guns.

   * Mandatory gun owner registration:  A SW dealer will not be
able to sell any of his guns at a gun show unless ALL of the sales
at the show -- including private sales -- are run through a
registration background check.  Why does the Clinton administration
want to know who every gun buyer is?

   * Mandatory training requirements:  You will not be able to buy a
gun from a SW dealer unless you have put your rights on hold for
however long it takes to complete a certified training course.
Hopefully, someone you know will never try to buy their first gun to
protect themselves from a stalker or abusive spouse.  Because now,
dealers carrying SW products cannot sell that person a self-defense
gun until that person jumps through the Clinton  Wesson hoops.

Restrictions On Gun Dealers

   * Mandatory employee training.  This would require all employees
of dealers and distributors to attend mandatory ATF approved
training.  Thus, dealers who have had a business for 20 years will
now need to send their employees to the federal government for
indoctrination.

   * Dealer entrapment.  The agreement requires persons under 18 to
be accompanied by adults either in gun stores covered by this
agreement or in the gun sections of those stores.  So the next time
Wal-Mart lets those pesky 17-year-olds walk near the gun section of
its store, look out!  An ATF agent may jump out from behind the camo
rack and bust the employees for not carding the juveniles and
keeping them out.

   * BATF harassment provision.  This agreement gives the new
Oversight Commission (including its BATF representative) unfettered
access into gun dealers' stores -- more so than is currently allowed
by federal law.  Any time it wants, the BATF can reach its dirty
hand into the dealer's records and gain "access to documents
necessary to determine compliance."

According to the official summary found on HUD's website, this
agreement is "enforceable as a court order and as a contract."  You
may have heard on the news about some of the "anti-safety" devices
that SW has agreed to include on their weapons -- trigger locks,
smart gun technology, etc.  These are anti-safety devices that will
cost innocent lives if they are imposed upon the public.  After all,
if they truly were safety devices, then why does the Clinton and
Wesson agreement exempt law enforcement and the military from having
these items on their guns?

For these reasons and more, Gun Owners of America is urging its near
quarter of a million members and all those committed to a NO
COMPROMISE position in regard to the Second Amendment to
disassociate themselves from the firearms manufacturer and BOYCOTT
all Smith  Wesson products.

This is a serious and dramatic step and one which we had never
envisioned taking.  We are aware of the "extortionary" pressure that

Doctor says WTO gassing led to health problems

Updated 12:00 PM ET March 6, 2000

By Brian Hansen
Colorado Daily
U. Colorado

(U-WIRE) EUGENE, Ore. -- The chemical weapons that were used against
civilians during the tumultuous World Trade Organization conference in
Seattle three months ago have given rise to a number of mysterious and
potentially serious long-term health afflictions, says a medical doctor who
is studying the matter.

Dr. Kirk Murphy, an assistant clinical professor at the UCLA Medical School
and a representative of the group Physicians for Social Responsibility,
discussed the health-related consequences of the gas-choked WTO meetings
last weekend at the Public Interest Environmental Law Conference in Eugene,
Ore.

"What we saw happening in Seattle was the largest single application of
chemical weapons against civilians in the northern hemisphere," Murphy said.
"We've seen a range of symptoms arising from the Seattle experience,
including a subset of symptoms that are atypical for the chemical agents
that we've been able to confirm were used."

Law-enforcement officials maintain that four types of chemical agents were
used in the streets of Seattle during the WTO conference: OC, or "pepper
spray," as well as three varieties of gaseous irritants -- CN, CS, and CX.

According to Murphy, people exposed to OC "normally" suffer from intense
burning sensations of their skin and/or eyes, and sometimes from rashes and
minor vision changes in the minutes and hours after exposure. And the
"normal" reactions to the three types of "tear gas" agents reportedly used
in Seattle, Murphy explained, commonly include eye, nasal and throat
irritation, and sometimes respiratory and digestive system problems.

Teams of street medics treated thousands of people exhibiting these types of
symptoms on Nov. 30, the first big day of protests against the WTO, Murphy
noted. But the following day -- after martial law had essentially been
imposed throughout downtown Seattle -- the symptomatic effects of the
chemical weapons changed significantly, Murphy said.

"Starting on December 1st, we saw a set of symptoms that went beyond the
usual 'irritation' symptoms," Murphy said. "These came to be called the
neurotoxic set of symptoms."

People who were gassed on Dec. 1, when police stormed Seattle's Pike Place
Market and Capitol Hill neighborhood, suffered then -- and continue to
report now -- a mysterious and troubling set of afflictions, Murphy said.

"We've collected several dozen reports of (women) who had an immediate
on-set of menstruation, and there's at least one report of a spontaneous
abortion," Murphy said. "One person who came in (to a street clinic) was
technically delirious ... and had symptoms consistent with shock. So, we
started asking questions that night about what additional agents could be
responsible for what we were seeing."

Law-enforcement agencies have denied allegations that "nerve gas" or other
military-grade chemical agents were used against WTO protestors and other
civilians in downtown Seattle, and Murphy acknowledged that there is, at
this point, no molecular evidence to support that charge.

But based on a symptomatic assessment of a host of medical reports -- as
well as a laboratory analysis of several spent chemical weapons
containers -- Murphy and his colleagues at the Los Angeles Office of
Physicians for Social Responsibility have come up with a hypothesis.

"Broadly speaking, we've raised a few different possible means or methods by
which the atypical symptoms might have come about," Murphy said.

One explanation, Murphy said, is that the atypical symptoms exhibited in
Seattle were in fact completely consistent with OC and the various tear
gasses -- but that no one -- including the manufacturers of the chemicals
and the police -- know that yet.

"A lot of the information that was developed (on chemical weapons) came from
the armed forces, where most of the people in the uniforms tended to have
male genitals," Murphy said. "So, we don't have a lot of information from
when thousands of women are exposed to these agents."

Another possibility, Murphy said, is that age or temperature had caused some
of the chemicals to break down during storage.

"There's a (spent) canister chasing around Eugene that was manufactured in
1980," Murphy said. "There are a number of chemical reactions that one could
envision taking place over time in a stored sample."

A third possibility is that the so-called inert ingredients that are present
in the chemical weapons containers -- which are frequently toxic and
carcinogenic solvents -- independently caused the atypical symptoms
exhibited in Seattle, Murphy said.

"What we do know is that the solvents that are found to be present in CN
include something called methelyne chloride,"

A-albionic Research Weekly Up-date of 9-9-95


  Too often, discussions of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and its
plans for a New World Order are seen as "right-wing" or "Bircher"
paranoia.  However, if "paranoia" is defined as disconnection from
reality, it is those who fail to recognize the power of the ruling
class/conspiracy as exercised through the CFR who are the real
"paranoids"!

  What follows is an excerpt from a "Marxist", left-wing analysis of the
power and influence of the CFR:

 THE IMPERIAL BRAIN TRUST: The Council on Foreign
   Relations  United States Foreign Policy

 By Laurence H. Shoup and William Minter


An Excerpt from the Introduction {pages 3-7}


  Over fifty years ago, in the wake of the First World War, a
group of wealthy and influential Americans decided to form
an organization. The Council on Foreign Relations, as it was
subsequently named, was designed to equip the United States
of America for an imperial role on the world scene. Great
Britain had dominated world politics during the nineteenth
century, not only through its colonial empire, but also
through an even wider informal sphere of influence. In a
similar fashion, so felt these American leaders, would the
United States play a dominant role in the years following the
war.

  But in 1919 the United States was not yet adequately
prepared for world leadership, as was well illustrated by the
conclusion surrounding the issue of United States membership
in the League of Nations. Even the leaders of opinion had
been unable to arrive at a common understanding of the part
the United States should take in world affairs. The Council
on Foreign Relations would help remedy this defect. By
keeping "its members in touch with the international situa-
ton"{l} and devoting itself to a continuous study of the "in-
ternational aspects of America s political, economic and
financial problems,"{2} it would develop a "reasoned American
foreign policy."{3} As one early statement of aims ambitiously
noted, the Council on Foreign Relations "plans to co-operate
with the Government and all existing international agencies,
and to bring all of them into constructive accord."{4}

  The Council on Foreign Relations still exists today, more
than half a century later. Yet it is hardly a household word.
Even many of those Americans who are relatively well in-
formed about foreign policy recognize it, if at all, only as the
organization which publishes Foreign Affairs magazine.  The
Council is rarely mentioned in the press or on television. The
number of articles, scholarly or otherwise, devoted to its ac-
tivities is minuscule, even if one adds together the output of
over fifty years. The lack of public attention might suggest
that the Council's importance does not match its original
ambitious goals. One might conclude that it had become
simply another discussion group, or a specialized research
organization, of little interest except to its own members,
and not particularly important to the overall picture of
United States foreign policy formation.

  But such a conclusion would be profoundly mistaken.
Reading the occasional references to the Council that do ap-
pear from time to time, one gets quite a different picture:

 New York Times: "The Council's membership includes some
  of the most influential men in government, business, education
  and the press."{5} The CFR "for nearly half a century has made
  substantial contributions to the basic concepts of American
  foreign policy."{6}

 Newsweek: The Council's leadership is the "foreign-policy es-
  tablishment of the U.S."{7}

 Peter Schrag: The Council is "the ultimate organization of the
  Eastern Establishment."{8}

 Theodore White: "The Council counts among its members
  probably more important names in American life than any other
  private group in the country."{9}

Marvin and Bernard Kalb: The Council is "an extremely influ-
  ential private group that is sometimes called the real State Depart-
  ment." {10}

Richard Barnet: Membership in the Council is "a rite of pas-
  sage for an aspiring national security manager."{ll}

  As several of the quotes imply, just the names of members
give an impressive picture of Council importance. The current
Council chairman is David Rockefeller of Chase Manhattan
Bank {circa 1977}, a man with incredible personal wealth and financial
power. Wall Street lawyer Allen W. Dulles, a Council director
for over forty years, helped establish

[CTRL] Peter Stern's Trial This Week

Anti-government activist faces trial for fraud, threats
ASSOCIATED PRESS
http://www.msnbc.com/local/rtsc/3530.asp

ASHEVILLE, N.C., March 20 - An anti-government activist who
employed the tactics of the Montana Freemen by allegedly producing
phony checks and issuing the verdicts of a self-created "court" against
IRS agents and federal judges could face one of those judges this
week.

PETER KAY STERN, a retired engineer and chief justice of a self-
described "common-law" court, was scheduled to stand trial Monday
before District Judge Lacy H. Thornburg on charges that include
threats to kidnap two of Thornburg's judicial colleagues. Stern has
been held without bond since his arrest in September. A federal
magistrate ruled there was "evidence of threats and weaponry which
could be used to kill law enforcement."

A leader in North Carolina's so-called patriot movement, Stern was
charged with bank fraud, conspiring to defraud the government,
attempting to interfere with administration of internal revenue laws,
threatening to kidnap federal judges, and using the mail to
communicate threats.

Stern's group, Our One Supreme Court, attracted notoriety for
sending official-looking summonses to public officials and ordering
them to appear as defendants. Town managers, IRS agents and
federal prosecutors were ordered to pay multi-million-dollar fines.

In his common-law court, Stern and other "justices" denied the
authority of laws passed by Congress or state legislatures, saying his
group's judgments were based solely on the U.S. Constitution. They
claimed to administer binding judgments that were a valid way to
escape paying taxes and other debts.

The government says Stern's activities began seven months after the
Internal Revenue Service determined he owed $56,000 in back taxes
and a month after attending a seminar run by the Montana Freemen.

Prosecutors said he was among seminar participants who learned
how to produce phony checks and carry out financial schemes such
as filing bogus liens against enemies. Beginning in December 1995,
Stern allegedly issued at least seven worthless checks. In each case,
he or an associate demanded a refund from banks, the IRS or
mortgage companies for an amount over the debt owed, according to
the indictment.

Stern allegedly tried to intimidate IRS agents by demanding they pay a
$1 million penalty. In January 1996, he sent letters threatening to
kidnap federal judges Graham C. Mullen and Richard L. Voorhees,
the indictment said. He allegedly used his title as the chief justice of
the "court" to sign an order demanding the release from detention of a
fellow tax protester.

Stern disputes the government's constitutional power to prosecute
him. He has filed challenges and appeals claiming "defects, illegalities
(and) misconduct of prosecution."

Great book. Authors a nice guy too. Gavin.



 From: Ed Wolfe [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Subject: [piml] "Unintended Conseqeunces" pgs. 337 and 338
 
 Rec'd from: Patricia Neill
 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED][EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
 In light of current events, the following excerpt from Ross' book merits
 your
 reflection.
 
 The quote is from "Unintended Consequences" pages 337 and 338:
 
 "A woman is confronted by a big, strong, stranger.  She doens't know
   what he's planning, and she's cautious.  Getting away from him is not
   possible.  They're in a room and he's standing in front of the only way
   out, or she's in a wheelchair - whatever.  Leaving the area is not an
   option.
 
 "So now he starts to do things she doesn't like.  He asks her for
   money. She can try to talk him out of it, just like we argue for lower
   taxes, and maybe it will work.  If it doesn't, and she gets outvoted,
   she'll probably choose to give to give it to him instead of getting into
   a fight to the death over ten dollars.  You would probably choose to pay
   your taxes rather than have the police arrive to throw you in jail.
 
 "Maybe this big man demands some other things, other minor
 assaults on this women's dignity.  When should she claw at his eyes or
 shove her
   ballpoint pen in his throat?  When he tries to force her to kiss him?
   Tries to force her to let him touch her?  Tries to force her to have sex
   with him?"  Henry took a deep breath and shrugged.
 
 "Those are questions that each woman has to answer for herself.
 There is one situation, though, where I tell women to fight to the death.
   That's when the man pulls out a pair of handcuffs and says, 'Come on, I
   promise I won't hurt you, this is just so you won't flail around and
   hurt either of us by accident.  Come on, I just want to talk, get in the
   van and let me handcuff you to this eyebolt here, and I promise I won't
   touch you.  I'm not asking you to put on a gag or anything, and since
   you can still scream for help, you know you'll be safe.  Come on, I got
   a full bar in here, and color TV, and air-conditioning, great stereo,
   come on, just put on the cuffs.'
 
 "I tell women that if that ever happens, maybe the man is telling the
   truth, and maybe after talking to her for a while he'll let her go and
   she will have had a good time drinking champagne and listening to
   music.  But if she gets in the van and puts her wrists in the handcuffs,
   she has just given up her future ability to fight, and now it is too
   late."  Henry realized he had been making eye contact with all the other
   people in the lecture hall, just as he did when he taught a course.  Now
   he looked directly at the professor.
 
 "How do you spot the precise point where a society is standing at the
   back of the van and the State has the handcuffs out?"

  If you were adding them up, that amounts to more than 55 million
  innocent people who were slaughtered by their own governments -
  governments that had first rendered their citizens defenseless by
  restricting or confiscating their firearms.

  Freedom-loving people are at  far more risk from their own government than
 from all the Ted Bundys and  Al Capones of the world combined! A free man
 with a firearm has a  fighting chance against any would-be gangster or
 criminal.

 On the other  hand, an unarmed man has no chance at all against an
 oppressive,  tyrannical government. Remember this the next time you hear the
 New  World Order Gang, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Bill Bradley and G.W. Bush
 touting the virtues of more gun control.

[CTRL] Feds Plan Trout Extermination Program

Feds Plan Trout Extermination Program
  For Smoky Mountains
  National Park Service bureaucrats consider
  using
  toxic chemicals to kill off non-native species
  By Dana Davis, The Asheville Tribune

  Using the toxic chemical, antimycin, The Great Smoky
  Mountain National Park Service is proposing to
  eliminate all rainbow and brown trout in as many as ten
  streams so that the indigenous brook trout can reclaim
  their once native habitat. Tennessee's Sams Creek has
  been designated as the initial testing area.

  Should this treatment be approved and deemed
  successful, the National Park Service tentatively plans
  to treat other area stream with the antimycin toxin,
  including Haywood County's Little Cataloochee Creek
  and Swain County's Bear, Desolation and Indian creeks',
  and a few others that have yet to be designated.
  "We are mandated to protect and preserve all native
  species," said Smoky Mountain National Park Fishery
  Biologist Steve Moore. "With all of our history (data)
  we know that the rainbow trout are having a bad
  effect."

  But local trout grower and owner of Sweet Water
  Farms, Mitchell Betty says, "Any time you introduce
  poison into nature's stream, I got a real problem with
  that. I would improve the habitat for both species above
  and below the naturally occurring waterfall. There were
  some people that tried to do this some time ago who
  were just trying to get the land back to the way it was a
  thousand years ago, for no apparent reason. We should
  continue to work on the habitat."

  Moore assured, "We've learned about this stuff and
  complied with law to make sure that we haven't done
  anything we're not supposed to do. This seems a little
  radical, but it's been used in National Parks and Forests
  throughout the U.S. for years."

  He claims that their proposal has been reviewed by
  biologists from area universities, the National Park
  Services commission, and Bruce Rosenlund, "the
  foremost expert in the nation for the use of antimycin
  for native restoration work."

  In order to carry this out, Moore said the National Park
  Service has performed an environmental assessment, as
  required by the National Environmental Protection Act,
  to make sure that no serious environmental impact will
  occur. "Now that we've recommended it, we put it out
  for public review and comment, and, if at all possible, it
  will be signed off by a regional director. Then we can do
  the project." Moore added, "We're not evaluating
  whether we should do it or not, we're evaluating how to
  best preserve the brook trout."

  The man who will make the ultimate decision,
  Southeast Regional Director Jerry Belson was
  unavailable, but according to his spokesman, Paul
  Winegar, "That's not a decision he would know a whole
  lot about," speaking in reference to the use of antimycin
  in the streams. "He would sign off on it after reading a
  memorandum, sent to him from the Smokies National
  Park. They're the experts in that area, so we would take
  their recommendation."

  Betty explains that in addition to rainbow and brown
  trout, that the brook trout, and all aquatic species for
  that matter, are feeling the negative impact from
  siltation. Siltation clouds the streams, making it hard
  for aquatic insects, a primary source of nutrients for
  fish, to thrive. The Smokies National Park Service only
  mentions the loggers as the culprits, but Betty says most
  siltation is caused by highway run-off from storms.
  Even so, most wildlife experts agree that early logging
  practices, dating to the beginning of the 20th century --
  in particular, building wooden dams and dynamiting
  them in the streams - contributed to the initial
  depopulation of the brook trout.

  The Smoky National Park says that to make up for their
  blunder, in the early 1900's loggers restocked the
  streams, mistakenly, with the dominant rainbow trout.

Subject:  School Shooting Pattern


Have any of you taken a look at the shootings that's been
occurring in the schools since 10-1-97 to see if there's a
pattern of any kind?

Go to your map and put a pin in at Springfield, OR (2 killed, 22
wounded). Then put a pin in at Perl, MS (3 killed, 9 wounded).
Funny thing. You'll see that Columbine, CO (15 killed, 14
wounded) is on that line.

Don't stop there.  Go to Edinboro, PA (1 teacher killed, 3
students wounded).  and put a pin there.  Now put a pin in at
Jonesboro, AR (5 killed).  Could you expect another school
shooting location to be somewhere on that line?

Guess what?  It fits like a glove.  Put a pin in at Paducah, KY
(3 killed, 6 wounded).

What's the likelyhood of this happening?

But we're not done.

Extend the lines so they cross.  Guess where they intersect?
This is the REALLY weird point.

HOPE, AR!

H.  We all know who calls home there.  Go ahead.  Figure up
those odds of this happening at random.  Here's something more to
think about that I haven't put on the list.  Take a look at that
map and see where the Oklahoma City bombing incident falls on one
of those lines.

Also, there was a thing called Waco, right?  Although it's not on
the map, it is about an hour's drive south of Dallas, I believe.
Estimate where that is on the map and check it out.

For those who don't want to be sticking pins in wall maps, here's
one already made up:
