[CTRL] Earth's Petroleum Supply Is 'Growing'
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/tg21/recharging/ - 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
[CTRL] DENTIST PULLS WRONG BOY'S TEETH

(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. Published by the Sacramento Bee.

Maybe it will stick. Here's a summary of some of the latest traffic, news, etc. I have gathered on this up-and-coming issue as of 17 March 2000. VV Table of Contents: 1.

Yet they have taken the position that it would perfectly all right 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 violation of your constitution rights just because they won't divulge any individual answers. We have already heard proposals to create concentration camps for drug users and to seize all privately owned semi-automatic weapons. There is simply no way to tell how the answers that people supply today might be used against them in the future". June Genis 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: == OMB NO: 0607-0858 EXPIRATION DATE: 12/31/2000 RESPS:1,400,000 HOURS:453,504 COSTS(000):$0 Census 2000 -- Puerto Rico FORMS: D-1(UL)(PR) D-1(UL)(PR)(S) D-1(E)(PR) D-1(E)(PR)(S)

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Dave Hartley http://www.asheville-computer.com/dave -Original Message- From: jean hudon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, March 20, 2000 4:49 PM To: undisclosed-recipients: ; Subject: Four mesmerizing stories: Night of the Red Sky + The Secrets of 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.

From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed]: Conspiracy Shopping Cart: http://a-albionic.com/shopping.html From: Edward Britton [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Reality_Pump] Big Brother gets under your skin Date: Monday, March 20, 2000 8:06 AM YOUR PAPERS, PLEASE ... Big Brother gets under your skin 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. Illustration of application of Digital Angel(R) from DigitalAngel.net 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.

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- [EMAIL PROTECTED],Internet writes: 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
-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

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? At 12.15 during the night of 25 February 1942, a formation of 12-15 unidentified craft was seen in the sky over Los Angeles, California. They were neither ours, nor the Navy's nor the Marines'. Not having established the identity or radio contact, they decided to attack in the fear that they were unknown enemies. Our coastal artillerymen discharged 1430 shots against the targets. There was no reaction, no bombs, no plane shot down, no damage to property, no victims and the craft disappeared. General Marshall related the incident to the President of the United States, Franklyn Delano Roosevelt the very next day. In 1943 in the Pacific, General Douglas MacArthur asked General Doolittle for
[CTRL] Is Media a Danger to Democracy?
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- 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 medias 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 medias 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

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.

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

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.

Orlin Grabbe/A - 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 another gold company. That bodes well for gold,
[CTRL] Fwd: Nazi doctor 'killed 772 children'
http://www.the-times.co.uk/ March 21 2000 EUROPE 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
[CTRL] Fwd: [corp-focus] IMF on the Ropes
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.

[CTRL] Fwd: [corp-focus] correction to IMF on the Ropes
In the Mokhiber/Weissman column just sent out, a phrase was inadvertently deleted. The Meltzer Commission recommended full cancellation of debts **owed to these institutions by the poorest countries.** A correct version of the column follows below. Robert Weissman Essential Information | Internet: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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 owed to these institutions by the poorest countries. 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.

[CTRL] Young Britons lose sense of nation/MI6: Fifty Years of Special Operations/Met chief blames arson on army
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- http://www.the-times.co.uk/news/pages/Sunday-Times/frontpage.html 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.

[CTRL] A Palace / Downing Street Rift
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- from a friend; 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

[CTRL] [Fwd: [EMMAS] Poor Paranoid's Almanac: The CIA American culture]
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Original Message Subject: [EMMAS] Poor Paranoid's Almanac: The CIA American culture Date: Mon, 20 Mar 2000 22:46:56 -0600 (CST) From: Steve Wagner [EMAIL PROTECTED] Organization: ? To: undisclosed-recipients:; This is from The Oakland Tribune, front page, Sat., March 18, 2000: 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!" - (c) 2000, The Oakland Tribune, http://www.oaklandtribune-ang.com - __ Do You Yahoo!?

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? International Friendship Shift! ^^^ So much for the "special relationship"? Reprinted from: The Spotlight, 300 Independence Ave. SE Washington, District of Columbia 20077-0996 (202) 546-5621 "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. Heath was voted

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.

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

From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed]: Conspiracy Shopping Cart: http://a-albionic.com/shopping.html -- Forwarded message -- Date: Thu, 15 Sep 1994 09:43:13 -0500 From: Kirby Cundiff [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 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
-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.

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.

[CTRL] The Windsor-Bush Bloodline
-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 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. Laurance Rockefeller and Prince Hans Adam of Liechtenstein (a Swiss-German guy, who funded the "Fund for UFO Research's" video, "Witnesses to Roswell" as well as part of the MIT "Abductions" conference and the 1992 "T. R. E. A. T." conference where "alien abductions" were the focus, as well, might then be questioned as to how their "UFOlogical" interests may (or may not) have any linkages to their beliefs and desire to take action in coping with Earth's alleged "eco-catastrophies." "Aliens" (whether "real" or fabricated) do indeed seem bent on exerting influence globally, with their "terrestrial envoys" among the billionaires and the deluded as their intermediaries. Hitler seemd crazy beyond any potential for success to those in power before his ascendancy. It was their laxity that caused it. At other places in Sean David Morton's published ruminations are the echos of Norio Hayakawa's 1993 assertions that in 1997 we would see a "staged UFO landing," either with bogus
[CTRL] SHAMROCK- NSA Spying On Citizens.
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY STUDIES IN INTELLIGENCE A collection of articles on the historical, operational, doctrinal, and theoretical aspects of intelligence WINTER 1999-2000 UNCLASSIFIED EDITION __ [pages 43-51] Unlucky SHAMROCK 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
[CTRL] Mock Terrorist Attack Planned?
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- 20 March 2000 Source: US national newspaper. -- -- March 20, 2000 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.

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

The digital realm cant 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 agitators 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 Sharptons National Action Network is not yet online. What follows is a tiny sampling of whats 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 Martinezs 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 Franciscos Modern Times Bookstore (http://www.mtbs.com/globalization.htm). Or subscribe to Essential Actions 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 Exchanges 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 Englands 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).

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- From AntiWar.Com {{Begin}} Airstrip One by Emmanuel Goldstein Antiwar.com March 21, 2000 How They Oppress Us The War Partys slow denial of our freedom THE PICTURE THAT STILL FOOLS THE WORLD If you have not read Justin Raimondos 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 ITNs 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 ITNs reputation for lightweight journalism Id 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 todays 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. THE LONG MARCH THROUGH THE INSTITUTIONS The internationalist left is in such a powerful position because of a long march

[CTRL] NASA knew Mars Polar Lander doomed
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- 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 recent

Subject: Glock to sell out next 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.

[CTRL] United Nations is United Nazis
From: "russ" [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.davidicke.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: Right2Know [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: mission-ignition [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 25 December 1999 10:55 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!

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- From: "A" [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Mundus vult decipi" (the world wants to be deceived) 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 caught it

[CTRL] Justice Dept. Lied!
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- 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... --end article-- The arts of power and its minions are the same in all countries and in all ages.

[CTRL] [Fwd: Smith Wesson Sell-out: Boycott!]
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
[CTRL] Doctor says WTO gassing led to health problems
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Dave Hartley http://www.asheville-computer.com/dave http://news.excite.com/news/uw/000307/health-96 Excite News 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,"

From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed]: Conspiracy Shopping Cart: http://a-albionic.com/shopping.html From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sep 9 15:35:12 1995 Date: Sat, 9 Sep 1995 15:20:05 -0400 (EDT) Subject: CFR: Imperial Brain Trust for New World Order! 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
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- 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." -end article- Related articles: http://www.citizen-times.com/cgi-bin/story.cgi?2321_n2.txtn http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/ap/2320/us/militant_on_trial_2.html "I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country." -Thomas Jefferson *[EMAIL PROTECTED] The Patriot Resource Center: http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/6627/ Online Patriot Internet Radio: http://www.geocities.com/aresister_2000/ **Live Free or Die!* A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

Re: [CTRL] Unintended Conseqeunces pgs. 337 and 338
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- 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?"

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.

[CTRL] Feds Plan Trout Extermination Program
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- http://www.ashevilletribune.com/fishkill.htm 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. However,
[CTRL] School Shooting Pattern (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- -- Forwarded message -- Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2000 08:31:10 -0800 From: DOC [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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.
