Re: [CTRL] UFO EVIDENCE:
Well may 50 million masons can keep a secret, but from what I know of the trip to the moon, we were there. Why did the program suddenly stop? Well, first the big night or day we landed on the moon, some may be old enough to recall the Bridge at Chappadwick, where Senator Edward M. Kennedy nearly lost his life and a friend with him died in the water. Prior to this accident Ted Kennedy had been seen as potential presidential material, something he really did not want. After the deaths of his two brothers, he developed a drinking problem and without a doubt was demoralized to a point where he underwent a very long period of depression. So what happened? Huberg Horatio Humphrey got the nomination, and lost. And when he lost, many friends I had withe the space program who had gone to California in particular making excellent money, $70 to $80 thousand per year, engineers all - returned back to their homes without jobs. The Republicans decided to concentrate on what, I do not know - Watergate was the end result and the country really started to take from that one big step for mankind, to slip sliding away and one big back step and side step into what we now call, the NWO. North American was the first to feel the real job losses. I knew one engineer who ended up driving a city bus, and he drove like a "bat out of hell" but everybody loved him because the trip home was so fast. Another hot shot with an ego the size of Kng Kong returned, and ended up near skid row, until he finally got into a State position, at half his former salary. These were all men who worked on the big projects. Civil Rights (black) wanted the money spend on people and not on trips into space. John F. Kennedy had made good his pledge to get to the moon and first, and did. So suddenly than began closing of big Air Force Bases across the country until as of late we have a Commander in Chief named Clinton, whom some believe is a draft dodger who played in Oxford and Moscow, waiting to be elected as a JFK look-alike and trained all the way., My guess would be that guy had some connections to the Red Chinese. Today we are told the 21st century will be horrifichot, drought, which is about the biggest line of crap this country was ever sold. We have our Russian friends into MIR and weather control, and we are told a lot of rain for the south west, which means Mexica. The UN Resolution 1732 (think that was it, have not seen it but onlly by documented reference) calls for "sharing of the weather". A lot also put out on the web on this, a man by the name of Beardon is most often mentioned, USAF Colonel at Huntsville, Alabama, home of Red Stone where von Braun worked to assist us to the moon. Old story in the 60 period was "our Germa scientists are smarter than your German scientists (referring to the portion Russia got, but we got von Braun). So check out the sabotage into the space program; strange, no sabotage in Russia. In fact England, our cherished allies, laughted at the USA when our first attempt to get to the moon went 30 feet or so, and blew up. England cried Oh What A Flopik..for Russia had the Sputnik. Idea to get to the moon? Colonization and new frontiersfuture Adam and Eves venturing into places where nobody has gone before, only this time maybe not as well equipped. Remember when you read Genesis, God said we will make man in OUR image. Note, it takes two to tango, and there maybe was a Mrs. God. So, did Mr. and Mrs. God produce children, Adam and Eve? Our image. We will live so happily - a girl for you, and a boy for me - and don't sit to long under them apple trees? During WWII, two songs are recorded one of which was Don' t Sit Under the Apple Tree With Anyone Else But Me, and the other In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Eveningand God used to walk in the Cool Cool of the Evening, but I always wondered who his shoemaker was. If you read Genesis you find the secret of all creation. You find the Sun to rule by day and the moon by night and further into the bible the Dial of AhazTurn Back The Hands of Time, and even the Sun Stood Still, but if it did we had to go out of orbit. So someday a new administration, will get our feet out of the mud, and we will again look to the stars where I believe the future generations will find a place like C. Gordon Liddy called, East of he Sun, and West of the Moon, and boy I wish I would be here for that trip. If I had my life to live over, I would have loved to have lived in a monastery full of books, for somewhere I believe in the Vatican Library alone, you will find the very secret of life itself.'' But always remember Genesis when God said lets make man in OUR image. So, all you male chauvenists...there was a Mrs. God, for he made an Adam and and Eve (and not Steve, Dr. Poly). At least this is what I think. If we reall go further into deep space and discover the secrets of life, think a lot of churches would go underground, and Pat

[CTRL] Fwd: Free Speech: Ehud Barak - the next Prime Minister of the state of Israel - What do you think? Tell us!
For legibility I am reproducing this story written by a man who feels as I do, that Ehud Barak is not what he seems to be. Barry Chamish wants to know what you think; well I wrote what I thought, and somehow too I keep remembering Sadat seated on a stage with the three pyramids within view as a man cried out "they are not real bullets". So an Egyptian murdered and a Jewish Prime Minister Rabin is murdered. Both would point fingers at a natural enemy; but is there a third element here not visible or goes without detection? If so, they sure know their bible. Your Jewish Online Magazine Home / Bookstore / Music Store / The Best Kosher Restaurant Guide in the World / TOC / Email to Free Speech! Ehud Barak - The Next Prime Minister of the state of Israel Free Speech: People's Response (The Opinions on this page and on KD are the personal opinions of the writers and not of KD!) THE PLOTTERS ARE BACK by Barry Chamish While the election campaign dragged on, two events that could have changed the results occurred but they were not allowed to make a difference. On March 10, a group of twenty citizens submitted over 30 pieces of evidence to Tel Aviv Police and requested a reopening of the Rabin assassination investigation based on undeniable medical and police laboratory findings proving Yigal Amir could not have shot fatal bullets at Yitzhak Rabin. Then, on April 29, my book Who Murdered Yitzhak Rabin was released in Hebrew by Gefen Books of Jerusalem. Within were the same documents submitted to the police the month before. What follows is a partial list of reporters who recognized the importance of the events and began preparing reports: Yehudit Yeheskieli- Yediot Ahronot Pearly Shahar- Channel One News Immanuel Halperin- Channel One News Sheike Rosenblat- Radio Kol Chai Dror Skornick- Makor Rishon Limor Shmuel- Yerushalayim In each and every case, their editors and producers nixed their stories. The public was not permitted to hear the truth about the Rabin assassination and when that same public went to the polls today, they did not have the facts. If they did, the vote would have been different, one would hope, because no one would willingly place murderers in power...one would prefer to believe. Though you wouldn't know it by the media blackout, thousands of Israelis have read my book in Hebrew and Russian in the past two weeks. People contacted me to say they had decided to change their vote after reading the book, and had the book received the exposure it warranted, there would have been many others. However, powerful forces made sure the public was not exposed to what should have been the central issue of the campaign: the conduct of the previous Labor government and its role in the Rabin assassination. Not a few readers have commented that the reign of terror imposed on opponents of the Oslo Accords, and then the Rabin assassination could not possibly have taken place without the direct knowledge and connivance of Labor Party leader Shimon Peres and IDF Chief Of Staff Ehud Barak. As obvious as this is to my readers, I have never publicly commented on this observation. As if this will do the truth any good. Aside from the new Prime Minister Ehud Barak, as number two on the Labor list, Shimon Peres will probably be Israel's next Foreign Minister. And they will repress investigation of the Rabin murder with all the power they possess, and that is much, much greater than they had in the past three years when a few brave researchers were allowed to demand justice based on their indisputable proofs of high level official involvement in the Rabin murder and the incitement which preceded it. One of these people is journalist Adir Zik, who told me, "This time round they aren't going to make the same mistakes. If anyone gets in their way they will be arrested even if it means setting up detention camps to hold them all." It might not be a bad idea to get a copy of Who Murdered Yitzhak Rabin before the ax falls on it and me. I am preparing myself for a attack of some kind against my book. If the last time around is a good precedent, a full-frontal vicious media slander campaign will be followed by righteous violence. Anyone too vocal or visual in his indignation against the sellout of his nation should expect the same, and should not be surprised by how far they are willing to go to get their way. They're back.

A blurp who Fred Lazarus, CFR, really was. Though Jewish, their store remained open on Saturdays and I loved that store but long gone under new management. Most true blue Jewish stores close Saturdays, so Fred Lazaras was a Zionist without a doubt, and maybe that is a difference. Knew one Lazaras who ate pork, but one man's mean not always another man's poison. This is to show the power this man had, for Christmas is the time of the three wise men who bring gifts for the Christ childbirthday gifts, Christmas gifts, and Lazaras because of this one man, who was in the bible brought back to life by Christ, this one man was powerful enough to convince Franklin Deleano Roosevelt, to change Thanksgiving Day.

[CTRL] With U.S. gone, Panama is a mecca for drug trafficking
From: http://www.washtimes.com/national/default-200069215016.htm THE WASHINGTON TIMES June 9, 2000 With U.S. gone, Panama is a mecca for drug trafficking By Bill Gertz Panama is a haven for illegal drug trafficking and money laundering that has grown worse since the pullout of U.S. military forces last year, according to a law enforcement intelligence report. "Panama's corrupt and ill-trained law enforcement units continue to be overwhelmed by trafficking efforts and are basically ineffective in their struggle," says the internal report obtained by The Washington Times. The May 2000 report says Panama has made "few inroads" in the battle against illegal drug trafficking and financial crimes during the first half of 2000. The failure is blamed on the country's new president, Mireya Moscoso, and "the U.S. withdrawal and turnover of its military bases and the Canal in January 2000." Panama's Tocumen International Airport has "a serious security problem . . . with internal conspiracies involving ramp and cargo personnel who facilitate narcotics loads," the report says. Flights by the Panamanian carrier, COPA, will begin soon to Los Angeles and will create new problems for airline and airport security that "already has its problems keeping narcotics off . . . aircraft," the report says. Chinese and Russian organized crime groups also are using Panama for smuggling illegal drugs, weapons and aliens. "Intelligence sources indicate that Chinese and Russian organized crime factions are active in narcotics, arms and illegal alien smuggling utilizing Panama as a base of operations," the 11-page report says, noting that the number of Chinese nationals in Panama increased dramatically in the past five years. The intelligence report was produced by a U.S. government law enforcement agency involved in monitoring imports. The name of the agency was withheld at the request of an agency spokesman. The report also says a Chinese company that leased port facilities at either end of the Panama Canal obtained the concessions through "an unfair and corrupt contractual bidding process." The company, Hong Kong-based Hutchison Whampoa Co. Ltd., runs the facilities at the strategic ports of Balboa and Cristobol, on the Pacific and Atlantic respectively. "Its major shareholder, Li Ka-Shing, reportedly has ties with the Red Chinese government," the report says. "Shen Jueren, the communist official who heads China Resources, and Li Ka-Shing, owner of Hutchison Whampoa, are both reportedly partners in a Hong Kong bank." China Resources owns 10 percent of Hongkong International Terminals, Hutchison Whampoa's flagship company, whose majority owner is Li Ka-Shing, according to a 1997 memorandum from the U.S. consulate in Hong Kong. Senate investigators identified China Resources in 1997 as "an agent of espionage economic, military and political." The firm also is linked to the Lippo Group, which was implicated in illegal campaign donations to the 1996 Clinton-Gore re-election campaign. The intelligence report was produced to assist U.S. law enforcement agencies in tracking illegal activities in Panama. Any people or cargo entering the United States from Panama should be watched closely, it says. The report is expected to be discussed Friday at a hearing on Panama's security by the House Government Reform subcommittee on criminal justice, drug policy and human resources. According to the report, Panama's political instability, economic woes and criminal activities began after the December 1989 arrest of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega by the U.S. military. The situation has not improved under Miss Moscoso, whose administration has been unable to cope with the activities, despite increased efforts at drug interdiction. "Panama remains a major transit country for cocaine and increasingly heroin, due to its proximity to Colombia and other narcotics-producing nations and its apparently inadequate border, airport and maritime controls," the report says, noting the government is facing "a difficult uphill battle." Drug seizures by authorities in Panama declined by 80 percent last year from 1998 levels, and "no major narcotics traffickers or money launderers were arrested." Experts on the region supported the conclusions of the report. "The increase in drug activity is a direct consequence of closing Howard Air Force Base, and the loss of radar coverage by AWACs planes that are no longer flying out of there," said Tomas Cabal, an investigative reporter based in Panama. "The Panamanians have no way to defend themselves," said retired U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Gordon Sumner, a former chairman of the Inter-American Defense Board and former ambassador-at-large for Latin America. "We've withdrawn our capability and left them vulnerable to whoever wants to come in. The narcoterrorists have money and they have bought their way
Re: [CTRL] With U.S. gone, Panama is a mecca for drug trafficking
Might add here, Russia - cross the Bering Strait to Alaska, USA is only 50 miles, then to Washington (Seattle) on to Colorado on to Arkansas on to Florida on to Cuba and back and forth and Mexico of course is 2nd route. Sollog line is drug route. So easy to find a common denominator if they really wanted to. Note how quickly forgotten the over 100 bodies found Mexico border when Clinton in hot water in Seattle. This was nice distraction, but those bodies had to be slave trade virtually or drug runners and someone did not pay up. Old Odessa Route is major drug route; and a former Guestapo Agent headed up narcotics traffic while another headed up Interpohl at one time. So it looks to me that to the victor belongs the spoils..maybe all the Presidents Men have been involved in a little more than the politics of running a government by the people and for the people, and are more self serving, than serving? They say 38 million people go to bed hungry every night in America - mostly elderly and children. And look at Clinton now wanting diseased chicken for Africa? White Farmrs and their black employees being slaughtered - and free lunch is one big foot into diamond mines and gold fields and lost treaures of Africa. People of Africa starving with all their wealth? Feed the Children first in American but then an President that permitted and ordered a Waco and Ruby Ridge, and bombs for the Balkans, is this a great Humanitarian? So much for the "United Way"; in Columbus, the Cancer Society just had 7 million dollars stolen, and short time ago another near half million stolen. Imagine United Way? Imagine your local treasury and believe me, some of the auditors need refresher courses. So much for charity..feed my flock, Jesus said - not fleece them on a regular basis. A.

[CTRL] UltraSonics-America's Secret Police
Para, I managed to find the url for this and thanks - what a find. Samantha I'm just getting some underground urls for you. Nicky UltraSonics-America's Secret Police http://www.angelfire.com/nj3/soundweapon/index.html Keywords: Non-Lethal Weapon, Ultrasonic Weapon, Infrasonic Weapon, Sound Weapon, Sonic Bullet, Acoustic Bullet, High Tech Harassment, Sound as a Weapon, Improvised Weaponry, Non-Destructive Structural Testing Equipment, Racism, Discrimination, Mental Disorders, Schizophrenia Hello, I posted this and the other web pages listed below to try to bring attention to a serious problem that is occurring where I live, Camden County, New Jersey and possibly other states in the USA. I've been targeted for over a year now by a harassment group that consists of private American citizens operating above the law. This group has access to the most advanced surveillance equipment and non-lethal weapons I've ever seen. The equipment and weapons should only be available to special military and special police divisions. The group used this equipment to do illegal surveillance of me and then the group attacked me with non-lethal weapons. I was informed that this group is funded by real estate companies and/or a government agency, such as HUD (Housing and Urban Development). If it is a government agency that funds this group, then the funds are most certainly being illegally diverted from a government program. Possible candidates for this group to target are people (men, women, and children) with criminal records, criminal behavior, mental disorders, and/or non-conforming attitudes. A person's race and sexual orientation could also qualify them as a target. Please remember that this group is operating above the law, which means no warrant is needed for this group to target a person. When this group targets a person, that person is on their own because law enforcement will do little to nothing to help. Please access the links below to read about my experience with this group and learn about this technology and weapons.

[CTRL] UltraSonic Targetting by Secret Police
http://www.angelfire.com/nj3/soundweapon/index.html UltraSonics-America's Secret Police - Url for prev post. UltraSonics-America's Secret Police http://www.angelfire.com/nj3/soundweapon/ultrasonics.htm A secret police force in America? Never! I would have given this answer before September of 1998 but not now. A secret police force operating above the law and doing illegal surveillance of private American citizens and acting as judge, jury, and executioner, exists in America. This secret police force has access to extremely advanced surveillance equipment and non-lethal weapons, which I thought were only available to special military and special non-secret police divisions. I named the secret police force "UltraSonics" because they primarily use non-lethal sonic weapons that produce powerful focused ultrasonic sound waves to attack the person they are targeting. I'll refer to members of UltraSonics as "UltraSonics Agents", and I'll refer to the person that UltraSonics is targeting as the "Target". UltraSonics did illegal surveillance of me and then attacked me with sonic and electrical non-lethal weapons. The information on this page is based on observations I made of UltraSonics over a one-year period, information I received from other people who have knowledge of UltraSonics, and my personal speculation about UltraSonics. Since UltraSonics did illegal surveillance of me and learned everything about me, I thought it was only fair that I tell as many people as possible everything I know about UltraSonics. Isn't that fair? This web page is my attempt to do so, and what you will read on this web page is based on a true story. This is the second draft of my story and I inserted some things into this web page as I learned of them. UltraSonics would need hundreds of thousands of dollars to obtain this advanced surveillance equipment and non-lethal weapons. UltraSonics would also need connections to buy this restricted surveillance technology and non-lethal weapons. I was told that real estate companies and/or a government agency called HUD (Housing and Urban Development) is funding UltraSonics. The government agency HUD makes the most sense to me. Local officials of HUD could be illegally diverting funds to purchase surveillance equipment and non-lethal weapons. A lot of people have told me that HUD is an extremely inefficient agency of the federal government, and this could be one of many reasons why HUD is so inefficient. Potential Targets of UltraSonics are unwelcome neighbors with criminal records, criminal behavior, mental disabilities, wrong sexual orientation, wrong race, wrong ideas, and/or non-conforming attitudes. An unwelcome neighbor can be a man, women, or child. The equipment and weapons that UltraSonics is using to attack its Targets can be used to artificially create symptoms of serious mental or physical disorders. While under attack, if the Target is unable to comprehend what is happening to them, they could be driven out of control and/or driven insane. Parents of children with mental disabilities should be warned about UltraSonics because a mentally impaired child will not be able to understand the technology and weapons, should it be used to attack the child. Law enforcement, state officials, local officials, lawyers, medical doctors, and psychiatrists are aware of the existence of UltraSonics. They all deny UltraSonics exists but use them in their own way. If law enforcement wishes to discredit a person who crossed the path of the law, UltraSonics will be called into action. If someone has seen something they should not have seen, UltraSonics would make them quickly forget what they have seen. If the parents of a mentally handicapped child refuse to put the child, that the community feels threatened by, in a mental institution, UltraSonics can use its technology and weapons to attack the child and drive the child out of control. The parents will have no other choice but to institutionalize the child. If the crazy old hermit that lives down the street is threatening people in the neighborhood, UltraSonics will correct the situation. If a community discovers that a convicted criminal has moved into their neighborhood, UltraSonics is on the way. In the United States, a mentally ill person cannot be forcible committed to a mental institution unless they are violent. UltraSonics understands this fact and has developed strategies that they use against mentally ill people to drive them out of control so they can be classified as violent. Once the mentally ill person is classified as violent, he or she can be forcible committed to a mental institution for an indefinite period of time. The mentally ill person cannot be released back into society until psychiatrists at the mental institution feel that the mentally ill person is no longer a threat to society. UltraSonics also has strategies they use to discredit non-mentally ill people and have them forcible committed to a mental

Chen NEW YORK (APBnews.com) -- After failing for 19 hours to flush an armed man high on methamphetamine from a Los Angeles warehouse, sheriff's deputies made the decision they always dread -- bust in and take him out. They had no idea where in the cavernous facility Daniel Lawrence Collins had holed up, and no way to find out. They knew he would have the drop on the strike team, and they were right. Collins opened fire with an SKS assault rifle from behind a bathroom door, injuring three deputies. What the deputies need -- and what they soon may get -- is X-ray vision. A force multiplier Three high-tech labs are in the final stages of developing a new form of radar device that can see through walls by broadcasting radio signals across broad bands of the spectrum to pinpoint a hidden suspect. Based on military technology, the products still need government approval and won't go on the market for at least a few more months. But police who have tried various versions of the new radar scanners like what they see -- and what the product developers are telling them. "One of the exciting things about this is that it's kind of like a force multiplier," said Elise Taylor, a spokeswoman for Time Domain, an Alabama company that developed a through-the-wall surveillance system called RadarVision. "It allows you to tell what's going on inside a building without actually having to look through a window or be inside the room." See breathing through wood Time Domain's product can detect breathing through wood, plaster or concrete from 20 feet away. By reading an LCD panel on the front of the chunky, 16-pound unit, police officers will know the exact location of their quarry. "Especially with something that is as efficient as this in detecting motion behind a door or wall, the police definitely need something like that," said Jim Ball, a program manager for the National Institute of Justice's Office of Law Enforcement Technology Commercialization who is helping Time Domain bring the product to market. "It's high priority." Time Domain has developed 20 prototypes and is still working on reducing the size of the unit, Ball said. 100-foot range Time Domain isn't the only company working on X-ray vision for cops. After that June 11, 1997, standoff, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office started looking into the new technology and came across defense contractor Raytheon and its MARS system, or Motion and Ranging Sensor. The company promises MARS will spot a lurking fugitive 100 feet away. That kind of range -- achieved by adapting military missile guidance technology -- is enough to find someone hiding two stories up inside a building. "If they're in the bushes, all they have to do is scratch their butt and you'll pick them up," said Larry Frazier, a Raytheon senior scientist who developed the MARS system. SWAT teams from the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department and Albuquerque, N.M., Police Department have been working with demonstration models of the MARS system. "This particular technology allows us to see through walls and has great promise because we can find where the suspect is and enter into an area where we're not going to be confronted by him," said Lt. Sid Heal, who researches new technology for the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department. "Sometimes it's as important to know where a suspect isn't as where he is." Radar flashlight Scientists at Georgia Tech are working on a third system -- a lightweight through-the-wall radar system that fits inside a flashlight. With a range of about 40 feet, Georgia Tech's "radar flashlight" displays less information than the other two devices. Initially developed so Army medics could tell if soldiers stranded on a battlefield were still breathing, the radar flashlight can detect, from certain angles, a human heartbeat, say its inventors. When the radar flashlight detects a human movement, the display is simple -- as simple, perhaps, as two lights on top of the unit. A red light means there's someone there. This simplicity has the advantage of being cheaper than the other systems. The MARS units are expected to cost $5,000 to $10,000. Time Domain doesn't disclose the cost of its device. At $500, the radar flashlight may be more practical for cash-strapped police departments. "We're trying to reach every policeman on the beat," said Gene Greneker, the scientist at the Georgia Tech Research Institute who developed the radar flashlight. "Police departments don't have a lot of money for

Cook, III, Maj David P. Fiely, Maj Maura T. McGowan From A.D. 1200 to 1500 a group of mercenaries on the Italian peninsula called the condottieri waged what has often been regarded as a form of nonlethal warfare. They were hired by the various mercantile city-states to protect vital interests. Many of the major engagements between these city-states' condottieri were almost comical for their lack of casualties. According to Niccolo Machiavelli, the battle of Zagonara in 1424 was a "defeat, famous throughout all Italy, [in which] no death occurred except those of Lodovico degli Obizi and two of his people, who, having fallen from their horses, were drowned in the mire."1 Several reasons have been extended for this low lethality. One of the more plausible reasons was the simple fact that the armor of the day was much superior to most offensive weaponry. A more personal reason is the fact that the surest way for a mercenary to lose his source of livelihood was for the condottieri to obliterate his enemies. As a result, mercenaries rarely sought setpiece battles, choosing instead to fight relatively minor and extended campaigns. Engagements between mounted warriors often resembled jousts and those between infantry often turned into shoving matches. In the past, nonlethal warfare did not rely on the use of nonlethal weapons; rather, it was the fortuitous result of the superiority of body armor over offensive weaponry or the mutual lackadaisical approach of opposing soldiers and leaders. Today, nonlethal weapons might offer the ability to wage nonlethal warfare without relying on such fortuitous circumstances. The use of nonlethal weapons would serve as a means of keeping the level of conflict low and of dissuading belligerents from resorting to more forceful weapons. Also, the prospect of resolving conflict with low levels of lethality is especially exciting to a country that has a warfighting doctrine of minimizing friendly as well as enemy casualties. Sun Tzu espoused a similar doctrine when he said: o Generally in war the best policy is to take a state intact; to ruin it is inferior to

The SR-71 "Blackbird" surveillance aircraft was in use for many years before the public saw it. This page lists articles from technology publications which show how these technologies are being used to harass covert weapons testing victims, and are now coming out in commercial form, or have been announced to the public: 1. Aviation Week Space Technology, March 10, 1997 "Radar Warns Birds of Impending Aircraft" This article by Bruce Nordwall (Washington bureau) describes research being carried on by the USAF Wright Laboratory at Dayton Ohio. The article describes the use of MODULATED radar signals to produce AUDIBLE SOUND within the brains of birds near airport runways to cause them to fly away and avoid collisions with landing aircraft. Other references on work with animals or humans with "audible microwaves": Science, vol. 181, 27 July 73, page 356 Nature, vol. 216, DEC 16 1967, page 1139 Nature, vol. 210, May 7 1966, page 636 Journal Acoustical Society of America, June 1982, page 1321 Bioelectromagnetics conference, 1992, 13:323-328 (pages 323-328) This list was furnished by the lab at Wright- Patterson Air Force Base where this type of unclassified development is now in progress. ** The transmission via MODULATED microwave pulses carrying voices to selected weapons testing victims has been carried on for more than two decades, as reported by the victims. There has been little published about this phenomenon, and since direct-to-skull voice transmissions are consistently mis-interpreted by psychiatrists as 'schizophrenia', getting this information to the public needs concerted attention. 2. Electronic Business Today, February 1997 "Business Trends" section, page 20 Inventor Elwood Norris, and his small company, (American Technology Corp., Poway CA) have designed a market ready device called an "acoustical heterodyne". This device sends out two sound signals in the ultrasonic (above-human-hearing) range which, when they impact a surface, which may be a living creature, then and only then produce a sound at a frequency equal to the DIFFERENCE ("heterodyne") of the two ultrasound frequencies. ** This technology has been used extensively by harassers who follow a walking or driving victim and bounce raucous, unnatural bird calls and other strange sounds off surfaces near the victim. This type of sound is tape recordable. ATC Corporate Headquarters 13114 Evening Creek Dr. S.

New York Times, April 7, 1997, "Devices May Let Police Find Hidden Guns on Street" article This article, with photos supplied by Millitech Corporation, describes recently unclassified "millimeter wave" cameras (and some other see- thru technologies less well developed.) These units operate like camcorders, giving the user a real-time thru-clothing, thru- luggage image for detecting weapons and drugs. Technology like this does not just pop out of nowhere overnight, and it probably has its roots in the 1960's classified microwave weapon "renaissance" - about the same time as the U.S. embassy staff in Moscow discovered they were being bathed in Soviet microwave signals. OEM Magazine, February 1997, page 20 "Electronic Dipstick" article This article describes "micropower impulse radar" or "MIR" radar, developed at Lawrence Livermore Lab in California, and licensed to several large companies for consumer products. Basically, this radar uses the highest radio frequencies and does not require the supporting hardware like rotary antennas which 'conventional' radar does. Uses include vehicle blind-spot sensors, traffic control sensors, heart muscle response monitors, and ** see thru plaster ** stud finders. ** Thru the wall radar has been covertly used for a number of years on weapons testing victims. One common use has been to detect where the victim is standing or walking in their apartment, and 'follow' the victim's position by rapping floor, walls, or ceiling from an adjacent apt. This is designed to let the victim know he/she is under constant surveillance. 4.

[CTRL] Seven Global Environmental Champions Awarded 2000 Goldman Prize
Seven Global Environmental Champions Awarded 2000 Goldman Prize posted 21st may 2000 http://www.pl.net/5life/2000awards.html Photo on url A Mexican peasant leader whose struggles against one of the world's largest lumber giants resulted in his imprisonment and torture last May, a Russian lawyer who is breaking new legal ground as she pleads precedent setting environmental cases in Russia, and an ethnobotanist from Madagascar who is fighting to save the island's forests that are rich with potentially life saving drugs are winners of the 11th annual Goldman Environmental Prize. They are among seven environmental heroes from around the globe who received the prestigious Goldman Prize at a ceremony in San Francisco. Each of the winners received a "no strings attached" award of $125,000 from the Goldman Environmental Foundation. In the case of joint winners from a single continent, the award is shared. The total of $750,000 given annually to grassroots heroes from each of the six continental regions makes it the world's largest award for grassroots environmentalists. This year's winners are: From Mexico, Rodolfo Montiel Flores: A peasant leader, imprisoned since May 2, 1999, who successfully organized the local population to halt voracious logging by US-based Boise Cascade in the Petatlán mountains of the Mexican coastal state of Guerrero. Protesting against environmental degradation, corruption, and human rights violations, he united local subsistence farmers and environmentalists in a movement that led Boise Cascade to abandon the logging it began soon after NAFTA was implemented in México. The movement was brutally suppressed by the Mexican Army, and in May 1999 two campesinos, including Montiel Flores, were arrested, suffered beatings, and remain in prison. As a result, an attorney representing the Petatlán group was kidnapped, brutally attacked and later released. From Uzbekistan, Oral Ataniyazova: An obstetrician who founded a clinic and a community-based movement to overcome the effects of environmental disaster in Karakalpakstan, an autonomous region of Uzbekistan. The heavy use of pesticides and other toxins in the region has created a devastating ecological nightmare that has negatively affected the health and livelihood of some three million inhabitants. The diversion of water for irrigation of the region's historic cotton crop have resulted in the rapid disappearance of the Aral Sea -- one of the world's largest inland seas -- displacing 40-60,000 individuals dependent on the formerly productive fishing industry. Working mostly with women and children, Ataniyazova has created programs to raise awareness of the issues and to seek solutions to the dire conditions in her homeland. From Russia, Vera Mischenko: A founder of the public-interest law movement in Russia who won the first successful lawsuit in the Russian Supreme Court in defense of public ecological interests on behalf of current and future generations. Mischenko and Ecojuris, her organization, were the first to use new Russian legislation to protect environmental rights of people without formal power of attorney. A recent legal action under her leadership resulted in an important victory against oil exploration without environmental impact assessments on Sakhalin Island, home to 8,000 indigenous people, migratory birds and marine mammals, including gray whales. This represents the first environmental victory in Russia against a multinational corporation. From Madagascar, Nat Quansah: An ethnobotanist known as a pioneer in the use of local plants in the treatment of disease. Madagascar is home to five percent of the world's total plant and animal species and remains one of the most recovery from childhood leukemia from 20 to 80 percent. In 1994, the recipient opened a clinic in the village of Ambodisakoana. There Quansah implemented the Integrated Health Care and Conservation Program in which the cultural practice of using natural substances for medicinal purposes is being reintroduced to Malagasy villagers. In the clinic's four years of operation, 5,685 patients were treated, and the use of local medicinal plants has raised the community's awareness of the importance of forest conservation. From Paraguay, Oscar Rivas Elías Díaz Peña: They began their efforts in 1986 under the dictatorship of General Alfredo Stroessner. Their struggle has continued during political turmoil involving efforts by fascistic groups to regain control of the country. The most visible success of the group they founded has been the campaign to halt the internationally financed Hidrovía Paraguay-Paraná navigation project, intended to drain, dredge and alter the region's waterways as a spur for export-driven development. Their most recent challenge is the struggle to highlight the severe problems associated with the notorious Yacyretá Dam on the Río Paraná. Calling for effective environmental and resettlement plans, Rivas and Díaz submitted a claim to the
[CTRL] Rising Temps Forecast Changes
Thursday June 8 6:17 PM ET Rising Temps Forecast Changes By H. JOSEF HEBERT, Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) - Alpine meadows will disappear, along with many coastal wetlands and barrier islands. Cities will be hotter and more humid. Ski runs will be scarcer, the demand for air conditioners will increase, and scientists will have to combat a likely resurgence in insect-borne diseases such as malaria. This is the weather forecast for the late 21st century, when average U.S. temperatures will have risen by 5 degrees to 10 degrees. Assailed by some critics as too pessimistic and little more than guess work, that assessment is of a country coping with global warming. Speak your mind Discuss this story with other people. [Start a Conversation] (Requires Yahoo! Messenger) Four years in the making, the report reflects the most ambitious attempt to gauge the impact of climate change on America. A dozen government agencies and hundreds of scientists, in and out of government, worked on ``Climate Change in America.'' It will be released next week and later presented to Congress, which asked for the assessment a decade ago. The Associated Press obtained a late draft of the report's overview summary. ``Based on the best available information, most Americans will experience significant impacts'' from Earth's warming, the report concludes. Among the findings: -Entire ecosystems may shift northward as temperatures increase. -The Alpine meadows of the Rocky Mountains likely will disappear. -Forests in the Southeast may break into ``a mosaic of forests, savannas and grasslands'' and sugar maples could disappear from Northeastern forests. -Ocean levels will rise, causing wetlands, marshes and barrier islands to disappear or - when the geography allows - be force inland. -The Great Lakes are predicted to decline because of increased evaporation causing yet different problems. -Some coastal cities, faced with sea level rise and more frequent storm surges, may have to redesign and adapt water, sewer and transportation systems. The study does not attempt to put a cost to such improvements. Some critics have charged it paints too dismal a picture and plays down potential benefits of warming - increased crop yields and warmer winters that may make life more pleasant in some areas, for example. The document acknowledges ``a complex mix of positive and negative impacts'' if, as most climate scientists predict, pollution in the atmosphere raises temperatures worldwide by an average of 4 degrees to 9 degrees over the next 100 years. An early draft of the overview summary was attacked in December as having ``an extreme, alarmist tone'' on predicting impact on human health. The summary has been revised with more emphasis on the uncertainties of predicting health impacts. Nevertheless, the study says higher temperatures and increased rainfall likely will exacerbate air pollution, saddle large cities with more frequent and severe heat waves, and lead to the spread of waterborne or insect-carrying diseases including malaria in the Southeast. But society can lessen these threats and the ``future vulnerability of the U.S. population to the heath impacts of climate change depends on our capacity to adapt,'' according to the late draft. In much of America, winter may disappear, limiting outdoor activities such as skiing. Warmer weather will reduce the mountain snowpack, curtailing the summer runoff that feeds irrigation across much of the West and complicating water management. But more rain is predicted for the arid Southwest. That could bring new vegetation - and more flash floods - to desert lands. Tree, fish and animal species will migrate northward everywhere. In the Pacific Northwest, the salmon may shift north to Alaska, replaced by warmer water species. In Alaska the rising temperature is expected to cause further thawing of permafrost, damaging roads and buildings. But warming also bring positive results, the study says. Trees will grow faster and the amount of timber in America's forests - especially hardwoods - will increase steadily through the century. Farmers will be able to grow more crops, although both in agriculture and forestry, there could be increased threats from pests and fire.

Re: [CTRL] Ultraterrestrials
From: "tenebroust" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since we are speculating we might try to address some of these issues. Yes, as long as we're clear that this is SPECULATION, and that we are not presenting our musings as 'the real truth'... ;-) What if the so-called abductions of today, since I'm sure most would agree that abductions (as opposed to interaction and weird events not involving actual abduction-and possibly experimentation) are a relatively new phenomenon, Well, we could make an argument over that presumption. As has been pointed out, the modern-day 'abduction by outerspace aliens' phenomenon has much in common with 'abduction by the wee folk' myths of centuries past, not to mention similarities to incubi/succubi attacks, and also very similar to ancient vampire legends (as opposed to Bram Stoker's relatively modern take on the same)... are merely a mental scenario and do not take place at all. Indeed. That's what I've been suggesting. But there also could be made an argument that altho something happens on the mential realm, it does not necessarily mean that it does 'not take place at all'... it only means that it is not happening within our physical realm of reference... There certainly does seem to be an inordinate interest in sex and sexuality that's for sure, but could that not aso be a byproduct of mental tampering, especially if the ental contact is such that it invokes profound physical symptoms, which may involve orgasm, as well as pleasure (this may be a way they control the people they interact with, or make them more "relaxed", etc.). But this raises the question as to WHY they are doing this. There are any number of other scenarios that one could mentally project to relax one's subjects, especially female subjects who usually will NOT find an experience akin to rape either pleasurable or relaxing. Indeed, most of the abduction accounts I've read that have involved a sexual element, the abductee rarely if ever found the experience either relaxing or pleasurable, and that includes males abductees, too. Perhaps these beings are like the aliens in the movie "Liquid Sky", and 'get off' on the energy that is released when humans experience orgasm... Or maybe Earth is the institution where the sexual perverts of the universe are sent :-7 Perhaps they use us for pleasure, whether "toying" with us for amusement, or satisfying their own prurient interests.

We have our Russian friends into MIR and weather control, and we are told a lot of rain for the south west, which means Mexica. Not just the Russians. Remember, 'we' have HAARP.

Colonization and new frontiersfuture Adam and Eves venturing into places where nobody has gone before, only this time maybe not as well equipped. The whole idea of sending a man to the moon was fueled by the Cold War... as soon as we knew the Russians had space capability, it became a prestige thing that the U.S. get to the moon before the Russians...it was bad enough that the Russkies beat us to the upper limits of Earth's atmosphere with their satellites, and beat us by launching the first successful astronaut, we weren't about to let them plant the red hammer-and-sickle flag on the moon before we could plant the stars-and-stripes... But by the early 1970s, times -- and the economy -- had changed drastically. The ultra-patriotism of the early 1960s was replaced with verulant anti- government protests from one side, and total apathy from the other. As you pointed out, the slump in the economy led to drastic layoffs in the aerospace industries. The price of oil skyrocketed. Wages were frozen. It was very hard for NASA and Congress to justify the expenditures necessary to continue the lunar space program; the focus changed to building a permanent orbiting space station (which ended up not very permanent) and a reusable spacecraft.

When I would "fly low" through Wyoming, back in the 80s, the only cars I ever saw pulled over on I-80 had Colorado plates I think that was more inter-state rivalry than actual concerns about speed limits. 1stUp.com - Free the Web Get your free Internet access at http://www.1stUp.com A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Buying A Media Job
from: http://www.skolnicksreport.com/mediajob.html Click Here: A HREF="http://www.skolnicksreport.com/mediajob.html"Sherman Skolnick's Report/A - Buying A Media Job by Sherman H. Skolnick So, you want to be a talking head on a local TV station. And read the alleged "news" from the idiot machine. Requirements: 1. You have to be about 28 years old. 2. If a woman, blondes preferred. Light-skinned blacks permitted BUT must look like a doll. 3. Must be able to read items about bloody wrecks, airplane disasters, and tornados without showing much visible emotion. 4. You cannot show any politics in what you are reading. In most of the bigger markets, such as Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles, you have to buy the job through the local, handful of celebrity lawyers. The terms are as follows: in a three-year conract, paying a big buck, you have to agree to pay under the table, a minimum of 15 per cent, in front, in cash, of the total amount you would receive in the first year of the contract. Of that, it is to be divided up as follows: one third to the union business agent, one third to the celebrity lawyer, and one third to the news director or station manager. I have been on the periphery of the media since the early 1960s. A few examples have come to my attention. Because of our role as crusaders opening up scandals, items that are suppressed by the monopoly press are sometimes referred to us, on the sly, together with the corroborating details. Media people in key places confide in us. We never, never, never divulge sources. Judges that we have fingered publicly for bribery have numerous times over the decades, put me, as the head of our court reform group, in jail and prison for so-called "contempt of court", for absolutely refusing to divulge sources. Over the decades as well I have become a sort of father confessor of media people with a problem. [I once taught civic investigation at a Chicago broadcast school.] Media people confide their problems to us, in confidence, knowing that we will never reveal who they are and will oftentimes come up with a proposed solution to save their neck and their job. I have usually met with such people in the middle of the night at some out of the way meeting place. What follows is a typical example: "Sherman, the so and so's fired me. And I am only in the first year of my three-year contract. BUT, they cannot do that!" the media person forcefully exclaimed. "I paid in cash, in front, the fifteen per cent as required. I bought the job. The money was divided up on the business agent of the union, this special lawyer that handles the buying and selling of media jobs, and the balance went to the news director. I was also of course the right age and look. Hey, the job belongs to me. They cannot fire me!" he emphasized. He outlined to me how this system works throughout the media industry. He offered other examples, some of which we already knew about from talking to other media people. "I'll try my best to help you and keep all this confidential. After all, you and your pals have in the past given me the lowdown on several suppressed scandals, and gave me the rundown on the inside dirt at your outlet. So I owe you one." I told him. "I bought the job, that's the system. They cannot fire me!" he repeated, his voice showing his anger. In my most compassionate manner, I quietly told him. "Well, you are unfortunately in the same category, I am sorry to tell you, as a bank robber on the way from the stick-up. A crooked cop beats you up and rips off the loot for himself. And you want to sue for brutality and recovery of your property. Such a lawsuit is not allowed. It is, the courts say, against public policy, since you bought the job. It is against the public good to be buying and selling jobs, such as in the mass media." I showed I understood his plight. "Listen, as an alternative, what kind of dirt do you have on the celebrity lawyer, the union business agent, and the news director? Maybe that would pressure the bastards to leave you alone." I asked. "Why? You think I should turn them in to the IRS with this? The so and so's do not report the job pay-off money on their taxes." He responded. "Aw, come on now, don't be silly. Right before the April 15th each year, the media honchos go along with the IRS and report a few evaders the IRS has fingered. So as to scare the rest of the public into sending in their form 1040 without question, just like it is required instead of actually, voluntary. The media bosses seldom go on the air with IRS corruption like we dig up." I told him. No lawyer would undertake to sue for him. So, he went on to some other line of work. Being handsome and personable, he was suitable for being a friendly, productive salesman. Some long-time network reporters that confided in me were worried about their jobs and their pensions. A foreign outfit was trying to take

Orlin Grabbe/A - Snake Oil ex-KGB Major Defeats Hackers, Saves Computer Industry Next: that "Japanese programmer" who breaks PGP keys in five minutes. A FORMER senior KGB officer who defected to America is patenting a new device to thwart hackers and could be the saviour of the US computer industry. Victor Sheymov is also poised to become the next "dot.com" multi-millionaire after he left the service of American intelligence to found a "cybersecurity" company outside Washington. The ex-KGB major has even persuaded James Woolsey, a former director of the CIA, to join his board of directors. Mr Sheymov was smuggled out of Moscow with his wife and daughter by the CIA. He was soon working for the highly secretive National Security Agency (NSA) trying to find ways of breaking into the KGB communications systems that he had designed. He turned to the private sector after falling out with the CIA over the $1 million (£670,000) he says he was promised as part of his defection package. "The CIA cheated me in a major way," he told the New York Times. Although he defected more than 20 years ago, he only settled his differences with the American government last year. By then he had started work on his "algorithm", a set of programming instructions for a computer, which he believes can make any machine impregnable to hackers. Hacking has become a threat to America's military and corporate infrastructure. Both the State Department and the FBI have been embarrassed by breaches of computer security. The agency employs young hackers to test its own security and to break into the systems of foreign governments, terrorist organisations and drug syndicates. After perfecting his algorithm, Mr Sheymov used his former NSA colleagues to test it. "We tried and we couldn't get in," said one expert hacker with 18 years of service at the agency. **America has for the first time shot down a missile using a laser beam during a test in New Mexico. The Tactical High Energy Laser has been developed by the Pentagon for use by Israel to defend its border with Lebanon against attack from Katyusha rockets fired by Hizbollah guerrillas.

The announcement marked a major milestone for an outfit whose Cold War research into code breaking and electronic eavesdropping helped spur the computer revolution and information warehousing. In a statement, the NSA referred to the decision to pursue a government-industry partnership as a "dramatic change" in its approach to managing and upgrading its information technology underpinnings. Despite its high-tech trailblazing, the NSA, a Defense Department arm, has made it clear it is struggling to keep up with the explosion of encrypted communications via fiber-optic cable, digital cell phones and the Internet. -- Reuters ch Jobs | ZDNet e-centives | Free E-mail | Newsletters | Updates | MyZDN et | Alerts | Rewards | Join ZDNet | Members | ZDNet eCircles Feedback | Your Privacy | Service Terms | Advertise Copyright © 2000 ZD Inc.

[CTRL] Ecstasy Produced for 'Riot Control' in South Africa
from: http://www.newsmakingnews.com/archive4,24,4,29,00.htm Click Here: A HREF="http://www.newsmakingnews.com/archive4,24,4,29,00.htm"AR CHIVE 4/A - ECSTASY - A HUMAN EXPERIMENTATION DRUG, USED FOR POLITICAL OPPRESSION BY SOUTH AFRICA'S DR. WOUTER BASSON (now on trial for murder), IS ALL OVER THE STREETS OF AMERICA. (CLICK to read Boston Globe article 4/26/00.) ORGANIZED CRIME IS LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK! WHERE IS THE U.S. DRUG CZAR? PRANCING AROUND COLUMBIA AGAIN? NewsMakingNews Questions: Dr. Larry Ford, recently executed in Southern California, was a consultant to Basson's group. Did he work on Ecstasy? Ecstasy was and is extensively used in the gay and other social communities in the U.S. and decreases the immune system and its euphoria leads to unprotected sex. How is Ecstasy use related to HIV/AIDS? Ecstasy Produced for 'Riot Control' in South Africa by Poison Pen © South Africa. http://home.global.co.za/~jrad/Ecstasy1.htm According to Reuters, on June 9 1998 a former South African government scientist told South Africa's Truth Commission that in the final days of apartheid the government ordered its chemists to make one ton of ecstasy, for 'riot control'. The scientist, Dr Johan Koekemoer, former head of chemical and biological weapons research at the secret Delta G facility, told the commission that he did not approve of the project and did not trust the motives of those who asked him to make the ecstasy, saying "I did not believe ecstasy was a good incapacitant (sic) and I told my superiors that...ecstasy enhances interpersonal relationships. I told Dr Mijburgh [overall chief of Delta G] I did not want to kiss my enemy". He personally delivered the ecstasy, in powder form, to Mijburgh between February 1992 and January 1993. More details on the case from a correspondent in South Africa: "At the moment, there is an ongoing commission of inquiry being held into the activities of the secret service during the apartheid years. The last few days of the inquiry have lifted the lid on the activities of a clandestine government laboratory called the Roodeplaat Research Laboratory. Evidence presented by former lab employees at the commission of inquiry this week, reveal that the laboratory produced all sorts of exotic poisons for use against anti-apartheid activists. These included cyanide, thallium, botulism and paraquat - and, wait for it, ecstasy. According to evidence presented this week, between February 1992 and January 1993, no less than 912kg of Ecstasy `in pure crystalline form' was manufactured by the laboratory. Working on a tab dosage of say 125mgs, that's enough E for 73 million hits! The evidence being presented to the commission is that the E was going to be used to `incapacitate the enemy'. The shadowy figure behind the E production was the former head of the army special operations called Wouter Basson who is now facing criminal charges for being in possession of E a year or two back. The evidence presented in court was that he was having the E manufactured for `incapacitating the enemy', but the word is that he was was producing it for international distribution in order to make himself a whole lot of money. In fact, quite a bit of this E turned up last year amongst the local rave community. It came in brown capsules and was judged to be 'very good stuff'. The word from a journalist friend of mine who was been doing a lot of research into the activities of the former apartheid government, is that a lot of Basson's E found its way into the mouths of many of the army and police personnel who were keeping the regime going. Well, it wasn't long before the government capitulated and handed over the country to Mandela's ANC party. One wonders how much of an effect the E had in this change of heart! Anyway, the word is that Basson has a great deal of the original 912kg of ecstasy hidden away somewhere in South Africa. And if he manages to escape a prison sentence, this E will doubtless continue to find its way onto the local market. Since the quality of E here in South Africa has declined sharply this year (in line with trends in Europe and the UK) the local ravers are waiting with baited breath for the re-emergence of `Basson's Brownies' as they have come to be known.." - Aloha, He'Ping, Om, Shalom, Salaam.

To receive MER regularly email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MID-EAST REALITIES - www.MiddleEast.Org - Washington - 6/07/00: The following commentary by Robert Fisk appears in the upcoming issue of THE NATION dated 26 June: SOUTHERN LEBANON WAITS By Robert Fisk* "After hearing that, do they think I want to send my [U.N.] soldiers to southern Lebanon?" U.N. Officer "It is not the Lebanese Army's job to protect Israel's northern border. Nor is it the United Nations'." [Kefer Kila, Southern Lebanon - THE NATION - 26 June 2000]" The final confrontation between Hezbollah and Israeli troops will stand alongside Anwar Sadats 1977 arrival in Jerusalem and the extraordinary handshake (fatal for Yitzhak Rabin and perhaps for Yasir Arafat too) on the White House lawn in 1993. In southern Lebanon in May, after all the years of bestializing every Islamic enemy as a mindless terrorist, Israelis found the bearded, armed members of the Party of God on their frontier. Right up against the border fence. Standing next to the gunmen, I was amazed to see how awed they were by their own victory. One of the worlds smallest guerrilla forces had driven one of the worlds most powerful armies out of an entire country. The Hezbollah, it seemed to me, were as amazed at historys power as the Israelis. I asked one of them a red-faced, bearded man with an M-16what he was thinking as he looked over at the Jewish settlement of Mishgav Am. Incredible, he said. And he was right. Inevitably, US and Israeli journalists recalled the fall of Saigon and the collapse of the South Vietnamese Army. In just two days, Israels Lebanese surrogates, the ragtag South Lebanon Army, had fallen to pieces. But the parallel was preposterous. In South Vietnam the national army fought on alone for years with, in its initial stages, high morale. But Israels SLA militia fought for money$400 a month, often paid in fake $100 bills. And they fought because they were blackmailed into servicebrothers and sisters would be jailed in the notorious Israeli torture prison at Khiam if their siblings did not enlist. And they fought because they had collaborated with Israel in the past and had no other future in Lebanon. Once the Israelis decided to leave, the SLAs disintegration was inevitable. It never had a cause to fight for. The SLA was not, as a general once boasted, the shield of Galilee. Nor was Israels so-called security zone secure. It was a myth. The SLA fell apart like a gang of mercenaries in central Africa. Comparisons with Vietnam are as dangerous as they are childish. The bearded images staring through the frontier wire were, alas for the Israelis, the authentic face of southern Lebanon. Many belonged to young Hezbollah men displaced from their homes in the south during Israels military adventures in Lebanon in 1978 and 1982. Hundreds of them were embracing family members for the first time in more than a decade. And right now, it seems, the Lebanese government is in no mood to send its entire army into the south of the countrynor to sanction a massive UN deployment. There are several reasons for this. The government in Beirut sees no reason its soldiers should act as a sandbag for the Israelis. It is not the Lebanese Armys job to protect Israels northern border. Nor is it the United Nations. Had Israel abided by UN Resolution 425 when it was passed twenty-two years ago, things might have been different. And then there is Golan. All along, Syria has insisted that the peace process among Syria, Lebanon and Israel should be two-track. Even the Americans went along with that. An Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon, the Syrians said, must be matched by a withdrawal from the Syrian Golan Heights. And Syrias pressure point for such a joint retreat was in southern Lebanon: Bleed the Israelis in their Crusader-style forts east of the Mediterranean, and they would have to concede Golan as well as southern Lebanon. That was President Hafez al-Assads equation. Golan remained quiet, the 1973 battle lines frozen. The Syrians could regard southern Lebanons battle as theirswith the advantage

[CTRL] US was close to ground invasion of Yugoslavia
http://www.usdefense.com/june2000/B/9/story7.htm US was close to ground invasion of Yugoslavia Friday, 9 June 2000 EUROPE | After 71 days of U.S.-led NATO bombing against Yugoslavia last year without producing results, U.S. National Security Advisor Sandy Berger had written a memo urging President Clinton to send in 175,000 ground troops, two-thirds of which would have been Americans. According to a Los Angeles Times report on Friday, Berger worked late into the evening of June 2, 1999, preparing a short memo urging Clinton to take the action. Berger, who described that night as one of his longest thus far, said he was disillusioned because he had been an advocate of an air-only campaign against Belgrade. With the memo freshly typed and ready to be delivered to the Oval Office, news came that Yugoslavian President Slobodan Milosevic would agree to NATO's peace terms, thereby ending the action against and -- thankfully -- Berger's suggested use of ground troops for an invasion that experts say would have been costly. According to Berger's account -- the first since the war by a high-ranking U.S. official who has publicly said how close America came to invading Kosovo -- the attack might not have happened anyway. NATO allies had said they would require three months to assemble an invasion force and the Clinton administration had already planned a final peace mission to Belgrade. But all along, U.S. officials -- including Berger -- maintained that the war against Yugoslavia wasn't supposed to be that difficult. "We believed that the air campaign would work," Berger said. "In the air, we had a thousand-to-one advantage. Once we got on the ground, we still would have had an advantage, but what was it, three to one? . . . Milosevic would have been happy to see a force come in on the ground, because it would have allowed him to wage a war of attrition," he added. A year earlier, Gen. Wesley Clark, NATO's supreme commander, had drawn up contingency plans for invading Yugoslavia. Prodded by British Prime Minister Tony Blair, NATO's leading hawk, and frustrated by the alliance's inability to break Milosevic in the air, NATO authorized Clark to update the plans. U.S. officials informed Russian diplomats about Clinton's serious consideration in April, 1999 of using ground troops to end the conflict. Officials knew that the warning would be carried back to Milosevic. One Russian diplomat, former Prime Minister Viktor Chernomyrdin, was described as "apocalyptic" after hearing the news, and warned that NATO-Russian relations would plummet. Also, he said the Serbs may prove to be tough fighters when acting in defense of their homes. But Berger said there would have been no consensus within NATO to fight a ground war. He told the LA Times he was sure Britain, France and Germany would contribute forces, but Greece would not and Italy was "a question mark." © 2000 USDefense.com.

[CTRL] ANOTHER GHOST FOR GORE
New York Post-June 9, 2000 ANOTHER GHOST FOR GORE Is Al Gore looking nervously over his shoulder? He should be - because the lingering campaign-finance scandal from his 1996 re-election effort is catching up with him, even if the mainstream media have lost interest. Two bombshell revelations this week underscore the need to keep this issue alive, despite hysterically disingenuous cries of "partisanship" by congressional Democrats. First, the House Committee on Government Reform released a memo - kept secret for nearly three years - by FBI Director Louis Freeh warning that Janet Reno's Justice Department was turning a deliberately blind eye to Gore's involvement in fund-raising illegalities. According to Freeh - a Clinton-Gore appointee - Reno was ignoring "reliable" and "compelling" evidence of Gore's active involvement in illegal fund-raising. That evidence, he noted, conflicted with Gore's own testimony - and suggested that Reno was wrongly accepting Gore's version at face value. "In the face of compelling evidence that the vice president was a very active, sophisticated fund-raiser who knew exactly what he was doing, his own exculpatory statements must not be given undue weight," Freeh warned. He also called for a total overhaul of Reno's fund-raising investigation - switching the targets from low-level bit players to the very top of the administration: President Clinton and a "core group of aides." That's because, Freeh noted, "most of the alleged campaign abuses flowed directly or indirectly from the all-out efforts by the White House and Democratic National Committee to raise money." Freeh's advice was ignored. That's understandable - two top FBI officials have testified to Congress that the head of Reno's public integrity section, Lee Radek, told them he was under pressure to save the attorney general's job by not appointing an independent counsel to investigate the fund-raising scandal. In fact, when Freeh learned of Radek's remarks, he wrote Reno that they "would be enough for me to take him and the Criminal Division off the case completely." Once again, his warning was ignored. Now the same House committee has disclosed that every single e-mail originating in Gore's office from March 1998 to April 1999 has disappeared - despite federal law requiring them to be archived. Gore's office blames a mysterious "technical configuration error." That might seem reasonable - had it not followed an earlier disclosure that the White House refused to turn over thousands of subpoenaed e-mails dealing with everything from Monica Lewinsky to Filegate. And that officials at Northrop Grumman, which administered the White House computers, said they'd been threatened with "jail" if they told anyone about the e-mails, which had been redefined as "classified" documents. The coverup now underway by this administration rivals anything seen during the Watergate era. Except that this time the national media have lost interest - and no agency in Washington can be trusted to investigate it. So it falls to George W. Bush and the GOP to start holding the veep's feet to the fire. There are important questions that need answers. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Pruden-'Go away, little boy, you're bothering us'
Washington Times-June 9, 2000 'Go away, little boy, you're bothering us' By Wesley Pruden Everybody got a piece of little Elian Gonzalez. There's less to send back to Fidel Castro than there used to be. Fidel got a live trophy, seized from the toothless Uncle Sugar. Bill Clinton got an assurance that Fidel won't flood Florida with robbers and rapists from his prisons, sinking Al Gore the way he sank Gov. Bill Clinton in Arkansas an eon or two ago. Greg Craig, who is but two ambulances short of a shyster, got a high-profile client, even if he did have to mooch his fee from Democratic fat cats in Georgetown after the National Council of Churches, a refuge of dying congregations with empty pews, was forced by internal outrage to balk at coughing up the dough. The odious Rev. Joan Brown Campbell, all bosom and bombast bereft of a pulpit to call her own, got an unexpected 15 minutes of fame for her part in dispatching little Elian back to her favorite satrapy, where he won't eat nearly as well as she does. Janet Reno got to be of some further use to Bill Clinton in the last days of his disgraced presidency, maybe enough to shore up her pension and health-insurance benefits as the sordid facts of Al Gore's escape from prosecution paint a legacy of corruption at the Justice Department. The agents of the Immigration and Naturalization Service got to play with their guns, pretending to be at Omaha Beach, playing war not against evildoers their own size but against frightened women and a terrified little boy. (When the Justice Department put out a thrilling tale of its manly agents this week, hearts pounding at how brave they were, their names were omitted so they could hide.) Even the Republicans got a piece of Elian. They practiced their rhetoric, empty as usual and more squeak than roar, a prelude to the inevitable climb-down. Tom DeLay's outrage and Dennis Hastert's anger subsided when the polls told them that doing something to help Elian would undermine their slogan for this fall: "Vote Republican. We're not as bad as you think." Rep. Steve Largent of Oklahoma got the biggest Republican piece of Elian. Mr. Largent had dug himself into a hole as a member of the committee choosing the new House chaplain. In an interview with the Catholic candidate, he asked whether the priest's clerical collar might offend Protestants. Such a question would not have raised an eyebrow in rural Oklahoma, where Protestants and Catholics are grown-ups and engage each other in real conversation, but in contemporary urban America, where finding offense has become a growth industry, Mr. Largent had stepped in a pile of the stuff that made Texas and Oklahoma famous. The House leadership, terrified of losing the Catholic vote, pressured Mr. Largent to do something. Enter Charlie Rangel, the Harlem Democrat who has been leading the charge to send little Elian back to the paradise where life is not really so bad. (Doesn't Fidel pass out fine cigars to his congressional visitors?) Maybe, if Steve Largent could do something for Charlie, Charlie could do something for Steve. Whatever, soon afterward, Mr. Largent, who had been leading the effort to grant citizenship to Elian, signed an op-ed piece in the New York Times, a mawkish appeal to the government to send Elian back to Fidel. What a coincidence: the organized Catholic anger at Mr. Largent, now a nice Rangel Republican, dissipated overnight. Just when it looked like this sordid episode couldn't get any smarmier, it did. Government memoranda and e-mail unearthed by court order (thanks to Judicial Watch) reveal in stark detail just how desperate Bill Clinton, the State Department and the Clinton kiddie corps are to kiss Fidel where the flies are thickest. These internal documents reveal how the U.S. government "coordinated" with Fidel the strategy for sending Elian home, even the timing of the litigation, and how it tried to maneuver the Catholic Church into taking the heat for the betrayal of Elian. And finally, how the Clinton administration colluded with Fidel Castro over how to manage U.S. newspaper and television coverage of the incident to give "guidance." A generation ago, a suggestion that a presidential administration was trying to "manage" the news caused an uproar that ruined the reputations of decent men. Now we shall see how the mavens of the American media, who have given standing ovations to Janet Reno for her politically correct mismanagement of the Elian affair, will react to the news that the Clinton administration sought the assistance of Fidel in pulling their strings. One day Elian Gonzalez may have the opportunity in a free Cuba to reflect on how his mother gave her life to get him to the land of the free and the home of the brave and who it was who betrayed him for their own cheap ends.

[CTRL] Say goodbye to medical privacy
[Expanding prescriiption drug benefits to ALL Medicare recipients (whether they need them or not) is yet a further intrusion of the government into our privacy. Don't think, for a second, the government would then let the doctors prescribe what the doctors think is best for you. There will be, within a couple years of implementation of such a program, a Medicare formulary, limiting the number of medications that Medicare would cover. But, you and your prescriptions would be entered into a government data base. --MS] Say goodbye to medical privacy by David Limbaugh, WND Aside from psychological reasons, why can't the Clintons be straightforward about things? It's easy to understand why Bill wouldn't want to be candid about his "affairs," but what about his policy proposals? If the Clintons' ideas were superior, they would have no motive to be deceitful about them, right? Think again. The truth is that they know that despite liberalism's virtual monopoly in the mainstream press, the universities, and most of our other cultural institutions, it is still not the majority philosophy among most voters. So they have to disguise many of their programs or, in some cases, secrete them from the public altogether. Remember Hillary's notorious plan to socialize American medicine? While pretending that it was going to be produced by the people "from the bottom up," she kept her task force meetings secret to the point of earning a rebuke by U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth. But why? What did she have to hide? Well, plenty, as it turns out. Hillary's 1,300-page plan would have nationalized 14 percent of the nation's economy, a fact she could ill-afford to have disclosed. And now, she and Bill both claim to have learned their lesson from that fiasco. But are they honest about that lesson? What they want you to believe is that they are willing to compromise and abandon their goal of nationalized health care. Actually, the only lesson they learned is that to accomplish their goal of socialized medicine they must do it incrementally, one inconspicuous step at a time. Although Hillary Care suffered a humiliating defeat in 1994, some of its insidious components survived and became law in 1996 with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), a.k.a., Kennedy-Kassebaum. Hillary's plan contained a provision regarding a "unique health identifier" (a patient ID number) that could be used to track each person's medical history electronically from cradle to grave. This gem was resurrected and codified into law in HIPAA in 1996. So far, our Brave New World medical ID numbers have not been created, but soon will be if something isn't done. Though the provision for the creation of the medical ID numbers is already in the law, Texas Congressman Ron Paul has been successful so far in leading an effort to block appropriations for implementation of this provision. This week, this appropriations bill (HR 4577) will be voted on again, and if it passes, the unique health identifier -- the medical ID number -- will be created for all of us. It gets worse. This year, the Department of Health and Human Services proposed "medical privacy regulations" that will apply to all individuals, whether their health care is paid for privately or by the government. Those who love freedom and cherish privacy should be alarmed about these developments. Here's why: While Clinton touts the medical ID number and the proposed medical privacy regulations as enhancing our medical privacy, they do just the opposite. The assignment of these numbers is the first step toward universal health care, and the regulations severely undermine our privacy. The government will be entitled to access our private medical records without our consent and the government -- not you -- will decide who else will have access to our records. Under the regulation's health plans, providers, hospitals, researchers, medical students, government agents, law enforcement officials, and whomever else the government decides will have access. Are you nervous yet? If not, be aware that the regulations will also limit patients' access to their own records, especially in malpractice cases. And they will limit our right to sue others for breaching our medical confidentiality. If Ron Paul fails to convince Congress again to block funding for creating the ID numbers, all is not lost. He also has prepared a bill to repeal the HIPAA provision that requires the adoption of our ID numbers. This is a good start but another provision also empowers the government to adopt those privacy regulations that authorize the collection and sharing of our medical records without our consent. Congress should repeal that provision as well. Once again, the Clintons, under the guise of expanding our rights, are taking them away. If we don't derail this train now, our chances of thwarting Hillary's grandiose scheme to socialize health care may be out the
[CTRL] Hillary's Secret Service Blocking Tough Questions: Bureau Chief
Newsmax-Inside Cover Friday June 9, 2000; 6:50 AM EDT Hillary's Secret Service Blocking Tough Questions: Bureau Chief The New York press corps hasn't been able to agressively question Senate candidate Hillary Clinton because she's using her Secret Service security detail to physically block reporters. That was the charge made Thursday night by New York Post Albany bureau chief Fred Dicker, who says the first lady is "using the resources of the federal government to prevent us from just having the kind of access you would take for granted with any other politician." Appearing on CNBC's Hardball, Dicker was asked by host Chris Matthews why the first lady refuses to appear on the Sunday TV talk shows: MATTHEWS: Why is Hillary dodging the big interview programs? DICKER: Because she's afraid of making a mistake. Let me note that I have my own radio show, Chris, and she won't come on with me. So she's dodging me too. MATTHEWS: Who are her chosen children? Who will Hillary give interviews to? Anybody? DICKER: Well, she hasn't recently in the last several weeks. Very, very brief. They'll bring in a TV reporter for four minutes and say, "You have one or two questions, then get out," and then bring in another one. MATTHEWS: Why don't you folks in the local press corps grill her on who she is and where she came from? DICKER: I'll give you the answer to that, Chris. We try and the Secret Service stops us. I mean, she'll show up at a local event and you'll go up to her like you would any candidate, and say, "Mrs. Clinton, can I ask you" and she runs off and the Secret Service blocks us. She's done that time after time after time. You can't get to her. She's using the resources of the federal government to prevent us from just having the kind of access you would take for granted with any other politician. In fact, Dicker's charges that Mrs. Clinton has been using her security detail as a kind of praetorian guard-media shield are not new. During a 1996 fund-raising swing through Arizona, local reporters complained that Secret Service was interfering with press coverage that posed no physical risk to the first lady whatsoever. "Reporters at the Monday afternoon speech were kept at arm's length from the first lady by Secret Service agents, who warned the press not to yell out questions," reported The Arizona Republic at the time. Hours earlier, the Supreme Court had rejected a White House bid to keep some of Mrs. Clinton's Whitewater records sealed. Incensed by the abuse of both the presidential security detail and the First Amendment, Arizona Rep. Matt Salmon complained to The Washington Times, "It appears (the president) has targeted the Secret Service to silence his critics. The Secret Service is paid to protect the president and his family from physical harm, not to protect them from tough questions." Last March, at least one reporter accused Mrs. Clinton's bodyguards of physically attacking journalists as they tried to cover her march in New York's St. Patrick's Day parade, where she was roundly booed. "Secret Service agents literally are pushing press to the ground," Metro Network newsman Glenn Schuck told a WABC-NY radio audience. "They just lost their minds, in my opinion. I mean they just started pushing and shoving; female camera people five feet tall were getting thrown to the ground, cameras flying. Myself, I was grabbed by the shoulder, I was thrown back over. I think somebody from Channel 11 landed on my back. From that point it really didn't get any better." (See: Hillary's Secret Service Agents Rough Up Reporters as St. Pat's Crowd Boos) The bizarre episode was dismissed by Schuck's media colleagues, including one Washington based columnist who told NewsMax.com she didn't believe it happened even after hearing Schuck's report on tape. The night of the parade a local CBS news broadcast showed footage of a Clinton bodyguard blocking a CBS crew's camera lens with his hand. CBS was trying to film spectators as they booed and jeered the first lady. Though New York reporters are just beginning to complain about Mrs. Clinton's inaccessability, Dicker is the first journalist of any prominence to publicly object to Hillary's heavy handed use of the Secret Service. Five weeks after the St. Patrick's Day assaults, an NBC camera crew was beaten by federal agents as they attempted to film the Clinton administration's gunpoint abduction of Elian Gonzalez. The network's soundman was slammed in the head with a rifle butt. An NBC cameraman was slugged twice and held down by an agent who kept a boot on his back for the duration of the raid. He was later hospitalized. Both were told they'd be shot if they moved. (See: NBC Cameraman Hospitalized After Elian Raid Beating) The assaults were corroborated by a third member of the NBC crew and at least one Gonzalez family friend who witnessed the attack. In fact, as reports of harassment and violence against journalists multiply,
[CTRL] Johnny Chung: Bribing Miss Hazel
June 9, 2000 Bribing Miss Hazel The inside story of payoffs to Hillary, O'Leary © 2000 WorldNetDaily.com By Johnny Chung I know there are some people out there who find the concept of government conspiracies amusing. Despite any evidence that surfaces pointing to government cover-ups of illegal activity, "level-headed" citizens give Uncle Sam's agents the benefit of the doubt and call the rest of us "paranoid." Those people may call themselves level-headed, but I say they are ostriches burying their heads in the sand. As the saying goes, it's not being paranoid if they're really after you. Webster defines conspiracy as "a joining secretly with others for an evil purpose; a plot." I submit to you that extortion and attempting to conceal the crimes of the president of the United States -- the leader of the free world -- are indeed evil purposes. Government conspiracies exist. I know this because I have been used in some of them. Let's review just two of them now. After two and a half years, the Justice Department finally handed over documents to the House Government Reform Committee, which released them this week. The documents add to the mounting pile of evidence demonstrating a conspiracy at the highest levels of government in the Chinagate scandal. Eager reporters writing their stories called me up with many questions. But they all wrote piecemeal stories, focusing on different aspects of the whole story instead of giving the big picture. I'd like to add to those stories by giving you a bit more inside information straight from the horse's mouth. One of the newly-released documents was a memo from FBI Director Louis Freeh, recommending the appointment of an independent counsel to investigate former Department of Energy Secretary Hazel O'Leary for involvement in Chinagate. In case you're thinking, "Haven't I already heard that some high-ranking official recommended an independent counsel?" you're right. Former Justice Department task force supervisor Chuck LaBella recommended an external investigation. Even the judge that sentenced me for my involvement in the scandal, Manuel Real, found it suspicious that no investigator had been appointed. That's right: All three of these gentlemen -- the FBI director, the DOJ task force leader and the judge -- thought it necessary to have an independent counsel investigate the huge scandal. But it never happened. In the summer of 1996, I agreed to donate $25,000 to O'Leary's favorite charity, Africare, at the suggestion of the secretary's aide Corlis Moody. The money was to secure a place for China Petro at a political meeting with O'Leary. Moody said an invitation letter to China Petro signed by O'Leary would be sent. Indeed, I received the faxed invitation with O'Leary's signature, and I faxed it to a China Petro official. Later, an African America gentleman claiming to be an employee of the Energy Department came to my apartment in D.C. to collect the $25,000 check to Africare. He also said he needed to retrieve the faxed invitation I had received that morning because the inspector general of the Energy Department said that it was illegal. So I gave him the check along with the fax, but I emphasized my desire to secure the meeting. After the Chinagate scandal erupted, FBI and DOJ prosecutors asked me about the O'Leary incident. They showed me a copy of the invitation, but it had been altered. "This is not the one I saw before," I told the agents. They went back to do some more digging and found the original version. Nevertheless, Attorney General Janet Reno sent a letter to the U.S. Appeals Court saying there was no need for an independent counsel to investigate the bribery. O'Leary knew nothing about my connection to her close aide Corlis Moody, Reno said. And besides, the invitation letter had been signed by autopen. Now, keep in mind I knew nothing about Africare before this incident. Why would I donate money to an organization I knew nothing about? All I knew was that I paid for a meeting, and I got it. By the way, Hazel O'Leary is the director of Africare. Coincidence? I think not. The 1996 campaign finance scandal, also referred to as Chinagate, is about money for political access. It's about how money can influence U.S. elections and buy political power. This Justice Department promised the American people it would turn every stone in order to get to the truth. High-ranking government officials said they would follow the money and that they would let the chips fall where they may. It's been three years. So far, the chips have all fallen on the donors -- me and 24 other people, none of whom are part of the White House administration, the Democratic National Committee, or people close to the president, first lady and vice president. We have become the poster boys of the Chinagate scandal. Americans have seen good, professional, career prosecutors and officials in the Justice Department leave, one-by-one, out of frustration because
[CTRL] A forgotten profession called journalism
Capitol Hill Blue-Daily Rant A forgotten profession called journalism By Doug Thompson June 9, 2000 The mainstream media woke up this week. Some of them realized Al Gore is a liar. This shocking piece of information did not come as the result of any dogged investigative work by any of these bozos, but through a series of memos that surfaced during a Congressional probe. In those memos, FBI director Louis Freeh said Gore's sworn statements regarding his involvement in illegal campaign fundraising activities did not jive with the facts. Stop the presses. Gore lies. Film at 11. Suddenly, the fat and happy Washington Post, New York Times and others are reporting that Al Gore is as unfamiliar with the truth as his boss, the never-truthful William Jefferson Clinton. Too bad these clowns don't read the independent Internet press. We've been reporting this story for months. Once again, the big boys are left with their thumbs up a certain posterior orifice. But now that the media mavens have all this startling information, just what will they do with it? Nothing. That's right. Nothing. The Washington Post doesn't give a damn about the many crimes of the Clinton administration. Never have. Never will. The New York Times won't unleash its considerable resources to dig into Al Gore's complicity in the morally-bankrupt administration that Bill Clinton once said would be "the most ethical" in history. Won't bother. They don't consider such stuff news. NBC News will give us videotape of a meaningless argument between O.J. Simpson and the sister of the ex-wife he killed, but won't spend a single second on the criminal activities of Al Gore. Forget CBS. Dan Rather has his nose rammed so far up Bill Clinton's butt he couldn't smell a story if it sat on his face. And ABC can't be bothered. Leonardo DiCaprio wasn't available to interview Al Gore. "I tried pitching this story to my editors," says one Washington reporter I know, "but they weren't interested. They said the public is tired of the misdeeds of the Clinton administration." Too bad these guys forgot their job was to cover news, not listen to focus groups and public opinion polls to determine that they should and should not cover. CBS laid off a bunch of people on its news web site this week. No wonder. People don't go to CBS for news (according to the Neilsen ratings, they don't go there for much else either). The Washington Post has spent more than $100 million on its web site and will lose at least half that much this year. They should. If you want to know what movies are playing in Washington, the Post site is a good place to visit. But don't waste your time if you want news. News isn't a marketable commodity in today's greed-driven world, so the so-called media companies can't waste their time with it. Too bad. Journalism used to be a profession. Now it's a business. Once it became a business, both the profession and the public lost. Doug Thompson is the founder, editor and publisher of Capitol Hill Blue..

[CTRL] Clinton Snubs Colorado Students Who Helped Free Sudanese Slaves
Capitol Hill Blue Clinton Snubs Colorado Students Who Helped Free Sudanese Slaves Friday, June 09, 2000 By MICHAEL ROMANO A Colorado teacher whose students have helped to free slaves in the Sudan denounced President Clinton on Thursday for ignoring the group's long-standing request for a face-to-face meeting. Barb Vogel accused the president of disregarding the plight of the Sudanese, who have been enslaved by the thousands during a decades-long civil war that has claimed as many as 2 million lives. "The whole world has given its attention to this issue," Vogel said after a press conference that featured two dozen of her students from Highline Elementary School in Aurora, a Denver suburb. "But not the president. Where has he been?" Meantime, she said, it is children like her fifth-graders who have tried to focus the world's attention on the woeful conditions in the impoverished African nation. The Aurora students have raised more than $50,000, beginning three years ago with a single penny in a collection jar. The money has been given to organizations that go to Sudan and ransom slaves to set them free. Vogel's students, who formed an organization called S.T.O.P. (Slavery That Oppresses People) Club, hoped to meet with Clinton and Secretary of State Madeleine Albright to press their concerns. She said the students sent about 1,000 letters to the White House requesting a meeting with the president. "We got back a mimeographed letter and a picture of his cat and dog," said Vogel. "The president has turned his back on America's best these children." Clinton has been to Europe, Russia and Japan in the past week and a half. White House spokeswoman Elizabeth Newman said the president will be in town Friday, when he is scheduled to meet with the president of Mexico. "He's been gone," she said of the president. "With regards to the schedule, it would have been very difficult." She said that "obviously, the president lauds the children and their teacher for their work in promoting freedom around the world." The crusade has caught on with students around the world. "We want to bring slavery to an end," said Jacob Wagner, 13, an eighth-grader who was among the students who launched the S.T.O.P. Club. "If we keep asking for help, maybe these people (in Congress) won't just ignore us." Rep. Tom Tancredo, the Colorado Republican who traveled to the Sudan last year and has become something of a congressional sponsor for the students, said he believes the president decided not to meet with Vogel's group because "he'd be embarrassed by the questions they'd ask him." Noting that Clinton has met twice since last summer with students from Columbine High School, adopting gun control as one of his top priorities, Tancredo claimed the president wasn't focusing on the Sudan crisis because it is not "politically expedient." At a press conference, Tancredo delivered a personal appeal to Clinton. "The administration has repeatedly ignored this catastrophe in Africa," Tancredo said. "So today, with the help of these students, we bring the tragedy to Washington and America. I hope you are listening, Mr. President." © 2000 Scripps Howard News Service = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Drudge: TINA BROWN SMASHES DRUDGE, AS SEX BOOK ON CLINTON CRITICS IS PUT ON ICE!
X DRUDGE REPORT X FRIDAY JUNE 09 2000 11:46:22 ET X TINA BROWN SMASHES DRUDGE, AS SEX BOOK ON CLINTON CRITICS IS PUT ON ICE! **Exclusive** DISNEY's TALK/MIRAMAX says they had already received 5 chapters. [The writer claims to have sent them 10.] Author John Connolly for months had been labeling members of the Office of the Independent Counsel as "fags", "faggots" and "queers" during conversations with media figures and Washington insiders. Private investigators had been hired more than a year ago to dig deep into the private sex lives and business dealings of major and minor Clinton critics. But it wasn't until earlier this week, when the Internet exposed details of the secret project, that TALK editor Tina Brown, MIRAMAX chief Harvey Weinstein and others became highly concerned INSANE CLOWN POSSE might be too hot to produce! [Harvey Weinstein, co-chair at Miramax, sent $10,000 to the Clinton Defense Fund. Tina Brown gave Hillary's senate campaign $1,000 on 9/13/99.] On Friday, Brown Co. were working out details of their announcement that they will not, in the end, be publishing POSSE. Meanwhile, editor Tina Brown was smashing the DRUDGE REPORT for daring to expose the project -- even after legal threats from famed powerlawyer Floyd Abrams. Abrams, calling from Israel on behalf of DISNEY's TALK/MIRAMAX, warned of immediate legal action against this report if new details were released and circulated about the controversial project. For her part, Brown was e-mailing a cagey response to DISNEY stockholders who expressed concern whether company money was being used to investigate the sex lives of Starr's staff and others. One DISNEY stockholder e-mailed: "Someone should bring a shareholder suit against Tina Brown and her lack of judgement, and for this waste of corporate assets." Brown shot back: "Your criticism is reminiscent of the Queen in Alice in Wonderland: Sentence first, verdict later!" Brown continued to the stockholder. "You are sadly misinformed. Publications should be judged by what they publish, not by partisan agendas and website speculation." But TALK/MIRAMAX book editor John Burnham confirmed earlier this week that the author did receive a cash advance to develop his investigation. Author Connolly writes in his working introduction to POSSE, which was obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT: "One of the lawyers [NAME DELETED TO PROTECT IDENTITY] had been engaged in a four year illicit sexual relationship with a low level employee. A spokesperson for [NAME DELETED TO PROTECT IDENTITY] also had been involved in a strange extramarital relationship... To complicate matters even more there are no less than six gays involved in the case. Two of the 'elves', and three of Starr's young male proteges were gay..." "Connolly even spread around town that I was gay because I volunteer for a local Fire Department," former congressional investigator Dave Bossie revealed earlier this week. Will Connolly's "investigation" soon find a new home? Will SALON.COM spend what little money it has left to gain access to the scraps? Will the NEW YORK POST's PAGE SIX continue to do false blind items generated by Connolly's investigation? Will the NEW YORK TIMES cover the publishing debacle? Will editorial writers like Frank Rich or Sally Quinn express outrage over the sex witch hunt and the use of the term "faggots" and "queers" to describe government lawyers? [After all, Tina Brown married her husband, Harry Evans, at the East Hampton home of Ben Bradlee and Sally Quinn.] Will White House aide Sidney Blumenthal once again deny spreading sex stories? Mickey Mouse apologizes. The Magic Kingdom is once again safe for all ages.

[CTRL] ECTV - Geomagnetic Storm and Aurora Watch Update
Geomagnetic Storm and Aurora Watch Update...06/09/00 by Mitch Battros (ECTV) It is refreshing to see the mainstream media take hold of this incredible unfolding that is taking place. I found a terrific web site to monitor aurora activity all around the world. It comes from our friends at NOAA: http://sec.noaa.gov/pmap/index.html In addition to possible red skies in selective areas, watch for continued "extreme weather" in most areas of the world. Also watch for increased volcano activity which is most likely directly related to the current solar storms. As you know, we have been witness to a sharp increase in seismic activity. It is my belief the increase in seismic events may not be related to the sun. Researchers have been able to show a direct correlation between the sun, volcano's and even forest fires, but I have not found conclusive evidence that supports a solar-earthquake relation. I am open to the idea. It sure would appear there would certainly be one, but I have not found it yet. I know, it does appear odd. But let's not lose sight of the fact that there is a dramatic current escalation of quakes. Seismologist had been very concerned of the low seismic activity over the last several months. As a result, there has been a tremendous build up along the ring of fire (and fault lines less known). There are many in the field who are concerned we may see a series of large quakes continue for some time. Watch for more 7.0's and maybe a couple of 8's. For all our sake, let's hope it would occur in a no, or low, populated area. This may be a good time to do an inventory on your survival or emergency gear. Also, we are still not out of range of possible power grid outages. Equation: Sunspots = Solar Flares = Magnetic Shift = Shifting Ocean and Jet Stream Currents = Extreme Weather Space Weather News Geomagnetic disturbances are finally subsiding after an interplanetary shock wave struck Earth's magnetosphere around 930 UT on June 8. The event triggered intense aurora over sparsely-inhabited regions of northern Asia and the Pacific. However, by nightfall over North America conditions had quieted. There is still a chance for isolated auroral substorms that might be visible tonight (June 8-9) at middle latitudes. The next opportunity for viewing aurora borealis may arrive as soon as June 10, when another solar wind disturbance is expected to reach Earth.

Re: [CTRL] [slickmisc] Re: rapist hits Gates but leaves Exxon alone??
Bob, I feel people who knowingly take risks, must be prepared to suffer the consequences. Insofar as MS products are concerned I feel most people are computer illiterate and are unable to determine if they're getting screwed. When Co.'s become very powerful forces in the marketplace however, and become publicly known to manipulate the consumer; the end result, I feel, will be a gradual dissipation of that power permitting competitive forces to prevail for the benefit of the consumer. The problem is the unconstitutional intrusion by the feds in the marketplace; bailouts, etc. Chrysler was a good example of producing shoddy products. On a larger scale, the U.S. taxpayer bailout of the Mexican peso; when crooks control the government as in Mexico and, in connivance with the international banksters, they use unfounded fear as a weapon to appease the consumer. Didn't work because the peso was devalued more than half; that bailout only postponed what should have been the inevitable collapse of a corrupt government.

www.wsws.org WSWS : News Analysis : South Central America Chilean court revokes Pinochet's legal immunity By Mauricio Saavedra 9 June 2000 Back to screen version Chile's Court of Appeal formally announced on Tuesday that it had voted 13 to 9 to strip former dictator General Augusto Pinochet of the legal immunity he enjoys as a lifetime senator. The court decision opens the way for Pinochet to be prosecuted for some of the thousands of murders, torture and disappearances that occurred under his 17-year military dictatorship. Since the beginning of 1998, some of the military junta's victims and their families have filed 109 criminal lawsuits against Pinochet, who came to power with the backing of the United States in 1973 by toppling the Popular Unity government headed by Socialist Party President Salvador Allende. The judges based their decision on the first and most publicised of the cases against Pinochet, known as the Caravan of Death. It concerns an army squad created on Pinochet's orders to speed up the execution of political prisoners72 in total. Investigating Judge Juan Guzman Tapia and eight human rights lawyers presented the case to the appeals judges last April. The Caravan of Death case has already led to the detention of several high and middle ranking officers who were involved in the death squad. The detentions were facilitated by a re-interpretation of an amnesty law that has served to protect the military over the past decade. Under the new interpretation dozens of military officers have been charged with kidnapping disappeared political prisoners. Pinochet's team of lawyers is likely to contest the latest ruling in the Supreme Court, arguing that he is too frail to stand trial. The British government used the same arguments to free the former dictator earlier this year after he had been held under house arrest for over a year pending a decision on his extradition to face charges in Spain. As soon as the appeals court decision was leaked to the press late last month, it provoked a hostile reaction from the military and extreme rightwing parties closely linked to the Pinochet dictatorship. More than 100 retired generals immediately visited Pinochet at his home to give him support. The military also held several meetings to deal with concerns among high and middle ranking officers that others will be charged for the crimes under the junta. QuePasa magazine reported that besides Pinochet more than 70 uniformed men, retired and active, are currently facing prosecution. The ultra-nationalist Independent Democratic Union (UDI) and National Revonation (RN) parties also met with Pinochet to show their support, and accused the courts of issuing a politicised verdict. These parties are demanding an immediate end to all current criminal cases against the military. UDI president Pablo Longueira accused the Concertacion coalition government, headed by Socialist Party President Ricardo Lagos, of increasing the level of polarisation. But just as the court decision was split so there appear to be divisions within ruling circles as a whole, including within the military and rightwing parties. The army's commander-in-chief Ricardo Izurieta repeatedly assured those facing charges of his support. But at the same time he has pointed to the need for the military to work out a deal with the Lagos government. On May 25, just a day after the appeals court decision was leaked, Izurieta said: I would dare to say that the army is concerned. It has to be understood that the army cares immensely for general Pinochet... He then added: I have spoken with the President [Lagos] on various occasions and he has told me that he understands our situation, and he has affirmed that we are behind him, which is true. And because we are behind him, I know that he will collaborate in our problems. Right-wing political leader Joaquin Lavin, Lagos' chief opponent in last year's presidential elections, has also adopted a conciliatory stance. Rather than denouncing the judgment, he called on everyone to respect the decision of the courts, which have to act freely and independently. For his part Lagos, the first Socialist Party president since Allende, has made clear that he has no intention of pursuing Pinochet and the military but will leave the matter to the courts. He has called for reconciliation between the military, the rightwing and those whom they persecuted. The decision to revoke Pinochet's immunity reflects a sentiment in sections of the ruling class not to bring Pinochet and his henchmen to justice but rather to deal with the crimes of the dictatorship, at least cosmetically, so that the entire historical chapter can be closed. Otherwise, as was seen during the Pinochet's detention in Britain, the issue threatens to erupt again, opening up divisions at home and damaging Chile's interests abroad. A series of statements by Socialist Party officials indicate that they understand their task.

[CTRL] It is time for a massive legal challenge of lethal injection - Please post
Problems came with 2nd needle After three tries, officials abandon attempts to insert a second line into Bennie Demps. That may have violated execution protocols. By SHELBY OPPEL and JO BECKER © St. Petersburg Times, published June 9, 2000 TALLAHASSEE -- Gov. Jeb Bush on Thursday staunchly defended the controversial handling of Florida's latest lethal injection, insisting state corrections officials performed the procedure "according to the textbook." "There was no botched nature to it at all," Bush said. But newly released details about the struggle to insert a second intravenous needle into three-time convicted killer Bennie Demps show state officials may have violated their own written execution protocol. That protocol says the medical technicians "shall complete" two intravenous lines into the condemned inmate. The governor's office says only one line was inserted, after technicians tried to insert a needle in at least four locations on Demps' body. In the wake of Demps' execution, other questions surfaced among death penalty opponents about the qualifications of the medical technicians who attempted to insert the needle and about the highly secretive procedure that has developed in the six months since the state switched its method of execution to lethal injection. Demps' final words -- a six-minute diatribe describing repeated attempts to insert the needle in his leg and groin -- has death row attorneys preparing to challenge lethal injection as cruel and unusual punishment. Michael Reiter is the attorney for convicted murderer Thomas Provenzano, who is scheduled to die June 20. Citing the state's history of botched executions, Reiter said: "I don't think they have the proper training. I don't think they have the competence and they make a mess of things." Demps' last request was to ask for an investigation into his execution. Alachua County State Attorney Rod Smith declined that request, made Thursday by Demps' attorney, concluding, "Mr. Demps was legally executed for a murder." But Smith gave the most graphic indication yet of what happened to Demps in the hour before a curtain parted to allow witnesses to see him strapped to a gurney in the death chamber. In a written statement, Smith said an observer from his office described five punctures in Demps' body -- confirming Demps' dying claims. The marks were a large-bore needle mark in Demps' right groin, a small incision inside his right ankle and two puncture wounds in his right arm. His left arm showed a mark from the intravenous needle that carried the fatal drugs into Demps' bloodstream. Before dying, Demps asserted prison officials began attempts to insert needles at 5:40 p.m. and made a final cut in his leg at 6:20 p.m. Justin Sayfie, a spokesman for Bush, gave this chronology Thursday about how the marks and puncture wounds appeared: After the first intravenous needle was successfully inserted into Demps' left arm, officials attempted to insert a second needle into his right arm, his right groin and finally into his right ankle. Failing to find a vein in any of those three places, officials abandoned the effort and decided to use only one intravenous needle for the execution, Sayfie said. Before dying, Demps complained that the process was painful and caused him to bleed "profusely." "That's clearly torture," said Abe Bonowitz, director of the newly formed Floridians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty. C.J. Drake, spokesman for the Department of Corrections, disagreed. "This guy spoke for up to seven minutes so it's hard to believe this guy was in that much pain," he said. "But for the needles, it's not an invasive procedure." When corrections officials abandoned the attempt to insert the second intravenous needle, they appeared to violate their own protocol, which states: "The designated members of the Execution Team shall complete the primary and alternate IV and the heart monitor setup(s)." Demps was executed Wednesday for the slaying of another Florida State Prison inmate. He also had been convicted of killing two other people. Bush, visiting Tampa on Thursday, said justice was served. "It wasn't botched. They went according to protocol, and it worked. . . . There was no botched nature to it at all," the governor said. "It gives me no great joy, but he was not in pain. Lethal injection worked. And it was all done according to the textbook, so that's just the way it is." The department, which has presided over three botched executions in the last nine years, has a history of not following execution protocol. After Allen "Tiny" Lee Davis died in the electric chair in a bloody spectacle last year, an attorney for Provenzano challenged the state's use of the electric chair. The state Supreme Court rejected his claims, but scolded the department. "Once
[CTRL] Kosovo + 1 Year
From http://www.cato.org/pubs/pas/pa-373es.html }}Begin Cato Policy Analysis No. 373 June 10, 2000 Dubious Anniversary: Kosovo One Year Later by Christopher Layne and Benjamin Schwarz Christopher Layne is a visiting fellow in foreign policy studies at the Cato Institute. Benjamin Schwarz is a correspondent for the Atlantic Monthly . Executive Summary One year after NATO ended its bombing campaign against Yugoslavia, the Clinton administrations Kosovo policy is a conspicuous failure. Kosovo is now the scene of a brutal ethnic cleansing campaign carried out by NATOs erstwhile de facto ally, the Kosovo Liberation Army, an organization profoundly inimical to Americas interests and professed values. The KLA is also currently fomenting an insurgency elsewhere in Serbia, which promises to destabilize the Balkans even further. The Clinton administration has embarked on yet another multi-billion-dollar nation-building adventure, which many analysts suggest will entangle the U.S. military for a decade or longer. This situation could have been avoided. Because of its inept diplomacy and strategic miscalculation, the administration bears a large measure of responsibility for both Kosovos humanitarian crisis a year ago and the KLAs postwar thuggery. It is now clear that the administrations claims of "horrific slaughter" and attempts at "genocide" by the Serbs were gross exaggerations designed to whip up support for intervention from a skeptical Congress and public. Confronting Kosovos depressing prospects, the administration consoles itself that, as President Clinton says, it "did the right thing in the right way" when it intervened. Even granting that doubtful premise, this is not enough to exonerate policymakers from their responsibility for the situation the United States confronts today. In the real world, policymakers are judged by the consequences of their actions, not by their intentions. The Kosovo war has not vindicated the administrations doctrine of "virtuous power." By waging an avoidable war, the Clinton administration has saddled the United States with a host of intractable problems.

[CTRL] Let's See ... Legacy
From AntiWar.Com }}Begin Samizdat 2000 by Christine Stone Antiwar.com The Legacy of Clinton's Foreign Policy June 9, 2000 As the Clinton era draws to a close the pundits have already started to dissect the administration's foreign policy over the past eight years. The subject seems to generate a certain amount of confusion but the verdict seems to be that the results have been "mixed." The confusion is, no doubt, partly based on the fact that Bill Clinton comes from the broad Left which was always supposed to favour policies of détente and non-aggression Bill himself famously demonstrated against the war in Vietnam. It comes a something of a shock to confront the actual record of his administrations which has been one of unbounded aggression, interference in and bullying towards the outside world. When Clinton was reelected in 1996 a friend of mine predicted that a "whirlwind" would henceforth descend on the planet and that, indeed, seems to have been the case. Even where the tools used to promote US interests have been labeled with bromides like "economic reform" or "democratization" the results have been the same: a world, literally seething in chaos. Among the president's critics as well as conspiracy theorists there is a firmly held belief that the US began to break free from the constraints of the Cold War and pursue world hegemony as soon as the Soviet Union disappeared in 1991. "Our first objective" according to a Pentagon planning document excerpts of which appeared in the New York Times in 1992 "is to prevent the reemergence of a new rival first, the US must show the leadership necessary to establish and protect a new order." But, against this theory there is much evidence that the Bush administration did not want to see the collapse either of the Soviet Union or Yugoslavia (remember the "chicken Kiev" speech) and the early Clintonites, despite campaign rhetoric, were also timid to begin with they did nothing to aid the Bosnians in their brutal war for independence. Far from it they sat back for three years and let the situation deteriorate under a fuzzy UN mandate. They refused to accede to demands for the UN arms embargo against the Bosnian government to be lifted humanitarian wars were not yet on the agenda. And, they only supported limited NATO air strikes when TV pictures of massacres near the small town of Srebrenica were appearing perilously close to another American election. It is difficult now to recall that Slobodan Milosevic was then the favourite with the negotiators, mediators and politicians who ploughed to and fro between Belgrade and the Western capitals in the early nineties. In the first edition of his memoirs, To End a War (removed from the post-Kosovo second edition) Richard Holbrooke singles him out as the most convivial member of the Izetbegovic/ Tudjman/Milosevic trio who negotiated the Dayton peace accords in 1995. Politicians, both European and American hurried to Belgrade after Dayton to gain the president's ear on behalf of this or that privatization. But he proved less compliant than they had hoped. A coldness started to develop between Belgrade and the Hurds, Holbrookes and Dinis who had once been its apologists. However, by this stage the policy makers had probably come to the conclusion that there had to be an overall plan to control the unpredictable and wayward Balkans which involved degrading Serbia along with the other countries in the region. In this they were helped by their allies in the European Union who had embarked upon their own Balkanization project of destroying their members' nation states. The first stage of the scheme involved changing the regimes in Albania, Bulgaria and Serbia itself. In November 1996 the Bulgarian Socialist government of Zhan Videnov suddenly found itself in the middle of a financial crisis and a run on the banks. Earlier that year, Videnov had been praised for his 'reformist' credentials by newspapers like the Financial Times but he, too, had been making problems about selling off all the family silver. After violent protests erupted in Sofia, Videnov and the Socialist government resigned to be replaced in elections held in 1997 by a so-called centre-right government whose members parroted all the necessary nostrums of 'market reform' and 'Euro/Atlantic structures'. Albania, too, started to fall apart in 1996, while in Belgrade the opposition- led Zajedno coalition held daily demonstrations to bring down the Milosevic regime. However, whereas Bulgaria and Albania capitulated relatively speedily to outside influence, the regime in Serbia survived. Other means had to be resorted to. Enter the KLA accompanied by relentless propaganda from media outlets like CNN detailing the persecution of the Albanians in Kosovo a strategy that was to end with NATO's attack on Serbia last year. Even though pundits had been predicting upheaval in Kosovo since 1990, Serbs and Albanians had long ago reached a kind of modus

In this work, the regular citizen doesn't stand a chance if elected representatives must first go to wealthy special interests to fund their campaigns. The representation game is over before it begins. It is nothing particularly new. But in the past, the wealthy lived among us. We shopped in their stores on Main Street and their children went to grade school with ours. We shared the same community interests and values. We are now talking about inhumane organizations of inhuman scale and international allegiance. They care not if our main streets or our families prosper or if they blow away. We must not have these monsters influencing our community decisions. We must not allow them to provide funds for our candidates, where those funds will deny us proper representation. We struggle here for the very survival of representative democracy. The people of Massachusetts have seen this problem and they have acted at the ballot box to create a new way to fund candidates, free of excessive influence by wealthy special interests. But those same wealthy interests have their agents in this state house, and they will destroy what the people have done at the ballot, if they can. It is called the overturning of an election, and the method of this coup is the continuing use of campaign contributions to corruptly purchase public policy. The people have have spoken clearly in favor of this historic reform. Did the members of the House not hear them? Do they need for the people to speak again--this time in the coming House elections? At the ballot box, the people have provided for the public financing of candidates who choose to say No to all special interest campaign donations. Their action comes at a time when citizens believe that their voices in government are drowned out by floods of special interest money, and they are right. No one seriously argues that point anymore--the flood is too great Pubic interest groups on the left and right, from

It's another holocaust." MID-EAST REALITIES - www.MiddleEast.Org - Washington - 6/10/00: A few weeks ago they honored Secretary of State Madeleine Albright at the University of California at Berkeley. George Washington University -- here in Washington, DC -- did the same a few days later. Honorary University Degrees for the first American woman Secretary of State. Who cares what her policies are. Who cares how much human suffering and misery she is responsible for. Who cares how much blood is shed, how many tears dropped, how much carnage results. How revolting this whole mindset; especially coming from the major centers of learning and education in today's America. University administrators, especially at the better universities, have become all too entwined with today's political and financial power structure in the US. The old values of academic integrity, intellectual honesty, and humanistic concerns, have been tragicly replaced with the mentality of hussling businessmen, stock-market manipulators, and "yes men". Education has more and more become just another money-making enterprise; just one more institution sucking up to those with the power and the bucks. And government has more and more added a hodge-podge of strings and "incentives" to how universities functions, what students learn, and who gets the all-important government grants. At GWU a very thoughtful and courageous lone sophomore, of Indian Muslim background majoring in communications, got up with a sign to protest Madeleine's genocidal proclivities toward Iraq -- but none of the professors educating her had even mentioned to her the name Noam Chomsky. Also at GWU a brave professor delivering the faculty address warned all of America's dangerous hubris and rampant nationalism. Madeleine sat through it, said not a word, few noticed or understood, worst of all very few seemed to care. At Berkeley Madeleine and university administrators got together and figured out she should't sit through the upcoming speech by the distinguished history major Fadia Rafeedie - a brilliant graduate headed toward Yale Law School and of Palestinian descent. Even though Rafeedie's speech had been "read and approved" in advance, it was decided the schedule would be changed at the last moment, Madeleine would speak before Rafeedie and then be gone -- not the way these things are usually done at all. But so it was. And so in proper response Fadia Rafeedie put aside her long and carefully prepared remarks (unlike Madeleine by the way who gave the same speech with the same cheap jokes at both Berkeley and GWU) and said the following which we should all take to heart: Thank you, that was way too generous, Chancellor Berdahl. It makes me sound, you know, a lot better than I am. I had a speech and it's right here. It took me so long to draft it and I kept re-drafting it, and this morning I changed it again, but I'm just going to put it to the side and I'm going to talk from my heart because what I witnessed here today, I have mixed feelings about. I don't know why I'm up here articulating the viewpoints of a lot of my comrades out there who were arrested, and not them. It's not because I got, you know, straight A's or maybe it is. Maybe that's the way the power structure works, but I'm very fortunate to be able to give them a voice. I think that's what I'm going to do, so if you give me your attention, I'd really appreciate it. I was hoping to speak before Secretary Albright, but that was also a reflection of the power structure, I think, to sort of change things around and make it difficult for people who are ready to articulate their voice in ways they don't usually get a chance to. So I'm going to improvise, and I'm going to mention some things that she didn't mention at all in her speech but which most of the protesters were actually talking about.

This Post deserves far and wide distribution!!! The taxpayer-subsidized Meat, and Dairy industries at it again; making every effort to fatten their bottom line. Take a trip to: http://www.notmilk.com/ and read the results of sucking on cow's milk; even weaned calves don't eat or drink milk products. Powered milk that was shipped to famine-plagued Africa was used by the Natives to paint their huts because they suffered diarrhea when they drank it. Those Natives were smart because they knew they could use the 'casing' in milk to apply protection for their huts; just think what milk does to your blood vessels. Gotta keep those Doctors happy!!! with angioplatsies, etc. Concerned Parents should insist their kids not drink tax-subsidized milk or dairy products in the corrupt government schools.

Now Clinton is promoting a worldwide school lunch program. Well, if it works, I think they ought to do it, but until we are all subjects of the new world order (NWO) I can see no reason why every country can't supply food to their own students. After we are controlled by the NWO I see no reason why they can't order every nation to give their children 3 square meals a day, in accordance with the govts menu of what's best for us to eat. Rich Martin Editor of Slick ^^^ http://www.electronic-townhall.net AP Washington - 05/30/2000 Worldwide Lunch Program Proposed by PHILIP BRASHER Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Clinton has asked his administration to consider establishing an international school lunch program similar to the federal one that subsidizes meals in American schools. Former Sen. George McGovern, U.S. representative to the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, proposed the feeding program to Clinton last week at a meeting with Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman and other administration officials. After Clinton heard McGovern's pitch, ''We were instructed to go and flesh the idea out,'' Glickman said Tuesday at a nutrition conference. ''The president gave us a green light to go out and develop this program.'' An estimated 300 million children in Africa, Asia and Latin America suffer from malnutrition, including 150 million, mostly girls, who don't go to school, McGovern said. The Agriculture Department subsidizes lunches for 27 million U.S. children, including 15 million who get meals for free or at reduced prices. The program cost $6 billion last year. The availability of free lunches would improve nutrition overseas, attract kids to school who otherwise would get no education and provide an outlet for surplus U.S. farm commodities, McGovern said. ''Nobody has been able to find a better way to get them to school than to offer them lunch,'' he said. McGovern was a leading advocate for federal nutrition programs while serving in the Senate from South Dakota in the 1960s and 1970s. He ran for president three times, in 1968, 1972 and 1984. --- This is a message from the Upstream mailing list.

[CTRL] NEW DOCUMENTS SHOW CLINTON ADMINISTRATION COLLABORATED' WITH CUBA ON ELIAN GONZALEZ
From: http://www.judicialwatch.org/ VIEW DOCS: 1st Document: http://www.judicialwatch.org/otherserver/elianfoiadocs2.htm 2nd Document: http://www.judicialwatch.org/otherserver/elianemail4.jpg FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 9, 2000 Contact: Richard Tomkins (202) 646-5172 NEW DOCUMENTS SHOW CLINTON ADMINISTRATION COLLABORATED' WITH CUBA ON ELIAN GONZALEZ Documents Also Show INS Knew It Didn't Have Legal Basis To Force Elian's Return INS Documents Were Turned Over to Judicial Watch Under Court Order Contradict Clinton-Gore Administration Spin (Washington, DC) Further refuting recent spin by Clinton-Gore Administration spokesmen, additional Clinton-Gore Administration documents uncovered by Judicial Watch, Inc. in its lawsuits show that the Clinton-Gore Administration "collaborated" with Cuba on the Elian Gonzalez matter. Copies of these additional documents are available at Judicial Watch's Internet site at www.judicialwatch.org. The documents were turned over to Judicial Watch recently by the Clinton-Gore Justice Department as part of its Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Justice Department and Immigration and Naturalization Service to obtain underlying information on the Elian Gonzalez saga. A federal court judge appointed by President Clinton, James Robertson, ordered that the Justice Department begin turning over the documents to Judicial Watch on April 26, 2000. Just yesterday, the Clinton-Gore Administration turned over a December, 1999 e-mail showing that INS Commissioner Doris Meissner, as part of the most "beneficial" litigation strategy, sought to work with the State Department and the Communist Cuban government to arrange a secret meeting with Juan Miguel Gonzalez despite evidence that he was being coerced by the Cuban government. Additionally, an undated e-mail produced last week shows that the INS knew it had no legal basis to act on behalf of Juan Miguel Gonzalez. The document states that the "INS is giving him rights in violation of law." "When will the Clinton-Gore Administration begin telling the truth about their collaboration with the Castro regime? As part of their litigation' strategy, they sought to conspire with Fidel Castro to obtain a secret meeting with Elian's father. The Administrations actions were despicable and contrary to what they had been publicly telling the courts and the American people, " said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. Judicial Watch is a public interest law firm that investigates and prosecutes government corruption. It is pursuing civil rights lawsuits against Janet Reno and others on behalf of Elian's rescuer Donato Darylmple and the other peaceful Americans outside the home of Elian Gonzalez's relatives' home on the night of the raid. http://tv.yahoo.com/yahoo/listings/tv1.dpg?chanArea=AZ58848daypart=Nowgenres=All+Categorieschannel=All+Channelsx=25y=9 A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

Individuals with a history of heart problems, or who are being treated for depression, may find it advisable not to read this report. http://www.marynet.com/advisor/Download/download.html THE MARS RECORDS http://themarsrecords.com/Preface/preface.html In December 1996 I began doing one-on-one Clearing sessions in Australia with an American man in his early 40s named Michael. I am an Australian. I had known Michael for a year prior to this. His life prior to 1995 had been spent in the USA. During these sessions we came to discover a vast number of astounding things that he had done, and which had been done to him, of which he had been totally unaware. These things included having worked on Mars for the US government, remote viewing, time travel, age recession by 20 years, being given false memories to cover his time on Mars, abductions and other experiences. Michael is a successful professional working in the information technology industry. He previously worked in the U.S. Navy. He is of sound mind and body, is highly intelligent and healthy. He has never taken recreational drugs or alcohol. Before the first clearing session, one would have considered that he had lead a perfectly normal life. The first clearing session was carried out because Michael had memories of seeing spaceships as a boy, and he wanted to determine whether these memories were real, or a dream, or if they were something else entirely. In fact, the sessions uncovered a whole range of suppressed memories. When I first met Michael I felt that he might be the man for me. And yet sometimes when I looked behind his eyes, there seemed to be an unusually large amount of suppressed rage. This would erupt occasionally and we would then have large arguments. After knowing him for a while, I offered the sessions to him, in an attempt to rid him of this anger. After a number of sessions, his anger reduced so much and his personality improved to the extent that when he asked me to marry him, I accepted. We married in August 1997 and we moved from Australia to the USA. We returned to Australia at the end of 1999. When we discovered what you are about to read, Michael asked me to type up my written records. When I finally accepted that we should publish these records, my original desire was to do so under a pseudonym. However, something happened to change that. We are not totally sure that an attempt was not made on Michaels life in November 1999, two weeks after we booked a flight to return to Australia from the USA. This event is described in Chapter 49 A Strange Accident. After this event, and much praying for guidance, we decided to publish using our real names. We made this decision because it is our understanding that generally the people who have been murdered for what they knew, were those who did so under pseudonyms. The bad guys can always find out who wrote what. However, usually whenever some one is willing to use his real name when he comes forward with unusual information, he is left to live because his death gives credibility to his information. (A notable exception to this was the late Phil Schneider. See Appendices IV and V). An example of this working: After Dr Joseph Puleo wrote a trial publication for Healing Codes for the Biological Apocalypse, an attempt was made on his life. Men in black clothes aimed a lazer gun through his kitchen window, which should have given him a fatal heart attack. However, God looks after his people. At the moment the lazer was fired, Dr Puleo picked up a bottle of olive oil which took enough of the blast to enable him to survive. Dr Puleo then agreed to use his real name in the final publication. The Mars Records is the record of what was discovered in Michaels sessions. This record is unlike any other that you have ever read. Firstly, we believe some of this information is unique. Secondly, these sessions were done on a biofeedback meter and all of the readings from the meter have been recorded here. The readings back up the truth of this amazing story.

Hi ! I have permission to forward this. Sincerely, Neil Brick Our listing these resources does not necessarily constitute our endorsement of them. Resources mentioned in this resource list are mentioned for educational value only. Using these resources may or may not help your recovery process, so use caution when reading anything or contacting anyone mentioned in this resource list. I just finished reading the fall-winter 1999 issue of The Journal of Psychiatry Law. It's a special issue focusing on the interrelationship between factitious behavior, dissociative disorders, and the law. I highly recommend this issue to anyone interested in retractors--those who recall memories of child abuse, then decide therapists implanted the memories and typically file malpractice lawsuits. Retractor lawsuits have generally been assumed to be trustworthy on the theory that the retractor was originally wrong but is now enlightened. Thus, the retractor is now telling the truth. This issue raises a "plausible alternative explanation" for such cases. To date, information regarding retractors has come from retractors' self-reports to the media and research surveys. Some articles in this issue offer the first hard data on retractors--analyses of actual treatment records and sworn testimonies. In fact, it's possible that had this type of data been available in the early 90s to insurance carriers and their attorneys, the flurry of "memory implantation" litigation against therapists might have quickly come to an end.

[CTRL] Blue-green algae / Modifilan / ProAlgen
I have been taking bluegreen algae for years and wondered if this is really a better product? I would appreciate any info. I don't know for sure how to compare blue-green algae with the brown seaweed extract. However, problems have been reported with some types, or batches of blue-green algae : 1) Some algae contains vitamin B-12 analogs which block 'real B-12' assimilation (even from B-12 supplements), thus causing a masked B-12 deficiency that will not show up on the basic B-12 blood tests -- thereby possibly leading to permanent neurological damage, if not corrected in time. Spirulina has this potential problem, and some types of blue-green algae possibly do, also. However, food product testing for 'B-12 analogs' is probably not required by law, and too expensive to do regularly, if it's done at all. A victim of the above problem (B-12 analogs) would need the MMA (methylmalonic acid) blood test to detect a 'functional B-12 deficiency', although a cause and effect relationship would be difficult to establish with certainty. 2) Six species of blue-green algae are known to produce toxins, and at least one of these (potentially toxic) species is commonly sold for human consumption. Also, toxic species or varieties could 'invade' and contaminate non-toxic algae crops. Cell Tech brand blue-green algae is tested every-other day on mice -- to see if it kills them. (see reference below). 3) " Upper Klamath Lake, where Cell Tech harvests its algae, is a shallow eutrophied lake full of nitrogen and phosphorus from animal feces. Klamath Lake lies along a migratory bird flyway, and large colonies of pelicans poop there year-round in a protected sanctuary. The August 1995 issue of Vegetarian Times describes the lake as pretty polluted. Three epidemic fish kills have occurred there recently, due to algal blooms. " (see reference below). 4) Is algae tested for mercury (and heavy-metals) contamination ? A friend's teenage daughter lost her kidney function (glomerulonephritis) to Hawaiian Spirulina which contained mercury. She was put on high-dose corticosteroids, awaiting a kidney transplant. 5) One species of blue-green algae produces 'anatoxin' -- an addictive neurotoxin that produces a good-feeling 'buzz'. It is chemically related to cocaine, and eventually could produce a similar type of brain damage.

Howdeshell Research paper: EXPOSURE TO BISPHENOL A ADVANCES PUBERTY. Howdeshell, Kembra L., Andrew K. Hotchkiss, Kristina A. Thayer, John G. Vandenbergh, and Frederick S. vom Saal. NATURE, 401(Oct 21, 1999):763-764. Article summary by Kembra L. Howdeshell, University of Missouri, Columbia. Over the past decades, researchers have reported a dramatic increase in the number of overweight Americans and a decrease in the age at which young girls reach puberty. These findings have been attributed to nutrition, lifestyle, and genetics. However, a team of researchers at the University of Missouri-Columbia and North Carolina State University reported in the October 21, 1999, issue of Nature that an estrogen-mimicking chemical used in the manufacture of certain plastic products could be a contributing factor. Kembra Howdeshell, a University of Missouri doctoral candidate, and Frederick vom Saal, biology professor at the University of Missouri, exposed mice to a level of bisphenol A comparable to human exposure. Bisphenol A, an estrogen-mimicking chemical, is a building block for the production of polycarbonate plastic products, such as baby bottles, the resin lining of food cans, and certain types of food storage containers. Bisphenol A exposure occurs because the chemical is known to leach from such products. Pregnant mice were fed a low level of bisphenol A (2.4 micrograms per kilogram or 2.4 parts per billion)during days 11-17 of their 19-day pregnancy, thus exposing the developing pups in the womb. Female mice born to bisphenol A-treated mothers had an earlier onset of puberty and were up to 20% heavier than those born to oil-fed control mothers. However, the female offspring with highest levels of natural estrogen were much more sensitive to the chemical and showed the largest weight gain and earliest puberty relative to those females with low levels of natural estrogen. Specifically, the bisphenol A-exposed females with highest natural estrogen levels reached puberty 5 days earlier and were 20% heavier at weaning (22-days -old) than their untreated counterparts. (while) Female offspring with the lowest levels of natural estrogen did not show a difference from controls based on their exposure to bisphenol A. Such variation in natural estrogen levels also exists in the human population and could be influencing the sensitivity of humans to such chemicals during sensitive periods of development in the womb. It is difficult to assess the levels of estrogen-mimicking chemicals to which humans are exposed and their impact on reproductive physiology. However, it is interesting to note that an increase in the number of hormone-sensitive reproductive abnormalities has occurred concurrent with the widespread use of hormone-disruptive agents in the environment, thus suggesting an association. These research findings do not directly answer questions concerning effects in humans; instead the findings pose a question regarding human health and may serve as a guide for human research. The researchers state that bisphenol A should be considered as a factor contributing to the changes in growth, sexual maturation, and reproductive abnormalities that have been reported in the humans in the past decades.

Johnson - Posted: 06.07.00 http://www.sierratimes.com/arjj060700.htm A HREF="http://www.sierratimes.com/arjj060700.htm"Rancher calls for Military Intervention at Border - By J.J. Johnson/A Douglas, AZ Roger Burnett is angry. The besieged rancher at Arizona's southern border has called for U.S. military intervention at what he calls "a serious national security threat." Burnett grazes 250 head of beef cattle on 22 thousand acres in Arizona which border Mexico; his grazing lands are composed of two thirds public land, which he leases, and one third private land. Burnett is one of over 40 ranchers in the area who says they are besieged by what has become a veritable Mexican immigration epidemic. Burnett says that the border patrol needs extra agents, but that extra agents alone can never solve the problem. He says that the flow of immigrants over the border onto the ranch lands which he and his fellow ranchers work is a torrential deluge. Here's what he described: 100 - 400 cars from the Cochise County area alone show up each and every day to pick up the illegal immigrants who pour over the border in what he describes as literally thousands per day. In fact, Burnett even described how many of these cars have temporary paper license tags, and how he has seen advertisements from trucking companies stating that they will bring the cars back to the border to pick up another load of people trying to make it over the border; Burnett says that there are about 5 - 10 transport truck loads every night bringing vehicles back the next night into his county to pick up yet another load of illegals. These cars somehow "find" drivers to transport more illegals each and every night. In an interview with Sierra Times, Burnett detailed what can only be described as a crime epidemic throughout the Southwestern part of the United States. "The drivers, called 'coyotes,' show up nightly to pick up the illegals. They leave a map in the car which the illegals then use to navigate to safe houses in Tucson and Phoenix. I have seen as many as a thousand people per night." Burnett based this estimate by counting the number of footprint tracks on his property, which he does continually. According to U.S. government estimates, the INS claims to apprehend one out of every eight illegal aliens who attempt to cross the border. If these figures are correct, then the total number of aliens who cross the Arizona border is approximately 7,000 per day. Contrast this with the fastest-growing city in the U.S. is Las Vegas, NV, which is increasing its population at a rate of 5,000 per month. At 7,000 per day, Arizona is experiencing an explosion of 210,000 per month - 42 times the growth of Las Vegas. Burnett denied allegations that flyers had been sent around asking any unwanted groups to show up in his county. "We did send out information requesting decent people to show up with their campers and RVs and serve as spotters for the local authorities." He said the ranchers need all the help they can get. When asked if the sheriff would consider deputizing the ranchers and other citizens to help with the problem, Burnett said that he wished the sheriff would do so, because then the federal government would really have to take notice of the situation. The Border Patrol is severely and chronically understaffed - it has been announced that more agents will be hired and brought to the border; however, the numbers being promised are insignificant in light of Burnett's estimates of how many illegals are pouring across the border daily. Many Hispanic civil rights groups in both Arizona and Mexico have complained about the treatment of the illegal immigrants, claiming civil rights abuses by both

Re: [CTRL] It is time for a massive legal challenge of lethalinjection -Please post
6/9/00 If legal injection is also a problem, then we need to go back to the only sure, quick, painless mode of death. Decapitation. The guillotine was a good idea back in the old days, let's bring it back again. Any idiot can work one. Joshua2 DIG alfred webre wrote: Problems came with 2nd needle After three tries, officials abandon attempts to insert a second line into Bennie Demps. That may have violated execution protocols. By SHELBY OPPEL and JO BECKER © St. Petersburg Times, published June 9, 2000 TALLAHASSEE -- Gov. Jeb Bush on Thursday staunchly defended the controversial handling of Florida's latest lethal injection, insisting state corrections officials performed the procedure "according to the textbook." "There was no botched nature to it at all," Bush said. But newly released details about the struggle to insert a second intravenous needle into three-time convicted killer Bennie Demps show state officials may have violated their own written execution protocol. That protocol says the medical technicians "shall complete" two intravenous lines into the condemned inmate. The governor's office says only one line was inserted, after technicians tried to insert a needle in at least four locations on Demps' body. In the wake of Demps' execution, other questions surfaced among death penalty opponents about the qualifications of the medical technicians who attempted to insert the needle and about the highly secretive procedure that has developed in the six months since the state switched its method of execution to lethal injection. Demps' final words -- a six-minute diatribe describing repeated attempts to insert the needle in his leg and groin -- has death row attorneys preparing to challenge lethal injection as cruel and unusual punishment. Michael Reiter is the attorney for convicted murderer Thomas Provenzano, who is scheduled to die June 20. Citing the state's history of botched executions, Reiter said: "I don't think they have the proper training. I don't think they have the competence and they make a mess of things." Demps' last request was to ask for an investigation into his execution. Alachua County State Attorney Rod Smith declined that request, made Thursday by Demps' attorney, concluding, "Mr. Demps was legally executed for a murder." But Smith gave the most graphic indication yet of what happened to Demps in the hour before a curtain parted to allow witnesses to see him strapped to a gurney in the death chamber. In a written statement, Smith said an observer from his office described five punctures in Demps' body -- confirming Demps' dying claims. The marks were a large-bore needle mark in Demps' right groin, a small incision inside his right ankle and two puncture wounds in his right arm. His left arm showed a mark from the intravenous needle that carried the fatal drugs into Demps' bloodstream. Before dying, Demps asserted prison officials began attempts to insert needles at 5:40 p.m. and made a final cut in his leg at 6:20 p.m. Justin Sayfie, a spokesman for Bush, gave this chronology Thursday about how the marks and puncture wounds appeared: After the first intravenous needle was successfully inserted into Demps' left arm, officials attempted to insert a second needle into his right arm, his right groin and finally into his right ankle. Failing to find a vein in any of those three places, officials abandoned the effort and decided to use only one intravenous needle for the execution, Sayfie said. Before dying, Demps complained that the process was painful and caused him to bleed "profusely." "That's clearly torture," said Abe Bonowitz, director of the newly formed Floridians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty. C.J. Drake, spokesman for the Department of Corrections, disagreed. "This guy spoke for up to seven minutes so it's hard to believe this guy was in that much pain," he said. "But for the needles, it's not an invasive procedure." When corrections officials abandoned the attempt to insert the second intravenous needle, they appeared to violate their own protocol, which states: "The designated members of the Execution Team shall complete the primary and alternate IV and the heart monitor setup(s)." Demps was executed Wednesday for the slaying of another Florida State Prison inmate. He also had been convicted of killing two other people. Bush, visiting Tampa on Thursday, said justice was served. "It wasn't botched. They went according to protocol, and it worked. . . . There was no botched nature to it at all," the governor said. "It gives me no great joy, but he was not in pain. Lethal injection worked. And it was all done according to the textbook, so that's just the way it is." The department, which

Sinon, a Greek spy, persuaded the Trojans to take the horse into the city, convincing them that to do so would mysteriously make Troy invulnerable. That night Sinon let out the armed Greek troops; killing the guards, they opened the gates to the Greeks, and Troy was captured and burned.

[CTRL] Original Meaning of the 2nd Amendment
On the original meaning of the 2nd Amendment Henry E. Schaffer [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Whereas in all well regulated Governments, it is the indispensable duty of every Legislature to consult the Happiness of a rising Generation, and endeavour to fit them for an honorable Discharge of the Social Duties of Life, by paying the strictest attention to their Education." These resounding words were the opening of a November 12, 1789 Act of the North Carolina Legislature which was passed on December 11, 1789 and which chartered the University of North Carolina. Noting that this Act was contemporaneous with the Bill of Rights (which was transmitted to the state legislatures on September 25, 1789) and that the North Carolina Legislature was active at that time, North Carolina being one of the original 13 states, let us pay particular attention to the usage of the words "well regulated" found both in this Act and in the 2nd Amendment of the BoR. The use of "well regulated" in this act can shed some light on the meaning of the 2nd Amendment. The 2nd Amendment reads: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." The debate between the collectivist and the individualist interpretations of the 2nd has often focused on the meaning of "well regulated" in the opening phrase "well regulated Militia". The collectivists claim this this refers to a Militia which is tightly controlled by the government, deducing this from the etymology of "regulated" which relates to "ruled". However, this ignores the usage of the word "regulate" in which the "rule" refers to the proper operations of a device rather than to man-made laws. We still see this in the word "regular", which in many contexts means "properly operating." Let me give two examples of usage of the word "regulate" which have been in existence for quite a long time and which have the same "properly operating" interpretation. 1) Horology: The adjustment of a portable timepiece so it will keep time in the different positions in which it may be carried and kept (and perhaps at the different temperatures which it may encounter.) A (mechanical) wrist-watch which has been so designed and adjusted is said to be "regulated" and likely has this word stamped or engraved on its back-plate. 2) Firearms: The adjustment of a multi-barrel firearm (e.g., a double barrelled shotgun) so that the barrels shoot to the same point-of-aim. If such a gun (a double-barrelled shotgun or a three barreled "drilling") fails to shoot properly, it is considered to be "out of regulation" and needs to be "re-regulated". Both of these uses have meanings *related* to the "to rule" of man- made laws, but are more in the nature of "to adjust to or to be in a state of proper functioning". So a "well regulated watch" or a "well regulated double barreled shotgun" both would have meaning of "having been put into properly functioning condition". From my reading of material from the colonial era, I have come to understand that "well regulated militia" had a meaning at that time (ca. 1789) in the nature of "a properly functioning militia" - which would mean something along the lines of a properly trained and equipped militia (since it was common at that time for militiamen to bring their own firearms, with which they were already proficient.) In an earlier use (1698), Andrew Fletcher does not directly define "well regulated" but contrasts it with "ill-regulated", a phrase with the opposite meaning. He says, "For this reason I shall examine, by what has passed of late years in these nations, whether experience have convinced us, that officers bred in foreign wars, be so far preferable to others who have been under no other discipline than that of an ordinary and ill-regulated militia; ..." This appears to define "ill- regulated" as "lacking in experience", and therefore to use "well- regulated" as "experienced", with the implication in this context of functioning properly in action so as to result in competent officers. The language of the NC Legislature in 1789 strengthens this interpretation. What can "well regulated Governments" mean other than "properly functioning Governments"? Surely it didn't and couldn't refer to a government under the control of man-made laws, for it is the Legislature itself which makes these laws, and it would neither be noble nor sensible for the Legislature to be proclaiming that it is controlling itself. An additional contemporaneous document which exhibits the same meaning is the Federalist Paper #29, in which Hamilton is discussing the composition of the militia and says, "To oblige the great body of the yeomanry, and of the other classes of the citizens, to be under arms for the purpose of going through military exercises and evolutions, as often as might be necessary to_acquire_the_degree_of_ perfection_which_would_entitle_them_to_the_character_of_a_ well-
[CTRL] NYT: Friedman (on attitudes: government's good, Gates' bad)
June 9, 2000 FOREIGN AFFAIRS / By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN The Young And the Clueless Wednesday's Microsoft ruling was about a lot of technical matters -- Internet browsers, market share, the Sherman Antitrust Act. But if you read carefully Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson's ruling to split up Microsoft, you will see that this case is also about attitude. In my view, it's an indictment of the attitude of the high-tech community in general toward government, but it's certainly an indictment of the particular attitude and arrogance of Microsoft. Bless Judge Jackson's heart for that. For many in Silicon Valley, government is irrelevant at best and obstructionist at worst. For many in the high-tech community, the world runs on electrons and stock options, and government is basically an institution of tax-seeking bloodsuckers. The idea that none of Silicon Valley's innovations would ever have flowered without the rule of law maintained by Washington or without the global stability maintained by the U.S. military -- funded by U.S. taxpayer dollars -- is really a foreign notion to many in the dot-com world. Tell techies that without America on duty there would be no America Online and they will look at you as if you were speaking Latin (or Fortran). No one epitomizes this attitude more than Bill Gates. As far as I'm concerned, the government had grounds to break up Microsoft simply for what Mr. Gates did last year -- which was to hire an army of Washington lobbyists to try to get Congress to cut the budget of the Antitrust Division of the Justice Department while Microsoft had its case before that department. Think about the arrogance behind that strategy. How would you feel if the biggest company in your town tried to use its influence to slash the funding of your police department, at a time when the police were bringing charges against that company? That's what Microsoft did. And that to me is the real point of Judge Jackson's ruling: Microsoft isn't a threat just because it's big. G.E. is big. Intel is big. Cisco is big. Microsoft is a threat because it is big and deaf to some of the bedrock values of the American system. Remember, Judge Jackson is a conservative Republican appointed to the bench by Ronald Reagan. He is not someone naturally hostile to big corporations. Yet on virtually every count the judge ruled in favor of the government and against Microsoft, pulling no punches when he wrote: "Microsoft as it is presently organized and led is unwilling to accept the notion that it broke the law or accede to an order amending its conduct. . . . There is credible evidence to suggest that Microsoft, convinced of its innocence, continues to do business as it has in the past, and may yet do to other markets what it has already done in the PC operating system and browser markets." It is impossible to predict what effect Microsoft's breakup could have on the computer market, the software market or the stock market. But it could not have come at a better time for the rule-of-law market. We are entering a whole new era of cyberspace, which is going to make governance of things we cherish, and the enforcement of even some basic laws, much more difficult. Look around: Internet companies are already violating people's privacy to troubling degrees; new technologies are making it easy for anyone to copy a book, movie or CD and send it to a friend without regard to copyright or royalties; e-commerce is increasingly going to deprive local and state governments of taxes; and the unregulated universe of cyberspace is making it easy for two students in the Philippines to send out a computer virus that melts down 10 million computers worldwide overnight. That's why in the age of cyberspace, government is going to matter more, not less. And you are going to want the rule of law more, not less. The danger, though, is that young people -- raised in the Internet age and bedazzled by technology companies and billionaire geeks like Bill Gates -- will lose sight of this fact. So too might all their parents with Microsoft stock in their 401(k)'s. Don't worry about Microsoft. There will always be another Microsoft as long as there is another Judge Jackson or another Joel Klein ready to take on such behemoths when they become abusive. But there won't always be another U.S. government, as we know it, if global technology companies grow so big and powerful that they think they can have their way with Washington, or if these emerging Internet giants snooker us into keeping cyberspace unregulated, so they can have their way with us. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all,

Thus have the paths of those on earth been straightened and men been taught what is pleasing to you, and saved, by Wisdom." The Catholic Church acknowledges that Divine Wisdom is feminine and declared in one of the 'bull ineffablis' (?) that DW was Mary. But from reading what Jesus said about the Holy Spirit and comparing it to what was written about Wisdom in "Wisdom" and "Ecclesiasticus" not to mention the whole Bride and Bridegroom thread that runs through the entire book, I think Wisdom is the Holy Spirit Jesus was talking about. The Gnostic texts talk about the Divine Sophia (Pistis Sophia) and many learned people seem to think that Mary was the Divine Sophia. But it doesn't fit. Sophia suffered grave humiliation and harm and experienced prolonged face-in-the-dirt-syndrome. It just doesn't fit with what we know of Mary's life, IMO. Anyway, for whatever reasons, I think the Powers-That-Be stripped the feminine out of the Divinity, or at least out of the Trinity. If the "Father, Son and the Holy Spirit" are all males, where did the Son come from? And who are the Bride and Bridegroom? I think an application of Occam's Razor is in order here.

What if the so-called abductions of today, since I'm sure most would agree that abductions (as opposed to interaction and weird events not involving actual abduction-and possibly experimentation) are a relatively new phenomenon, are merely a mental scenario and do not take place at all. Scoop marks, scars, implants, nosebleeds, mysterious 'miscarriages' of confirmed pregnancies absent of tissue - all these seem to indicate a physical component. Of course IF they are physical beings AND they really DO abduct people then there would have to be some purpose for it. Would we have genetic similarity? I think that we would if we each developed according to similar evolutionary lines, and it seems they are very much like us in the way they look and behave. Interbreeding could be a possibility. I just read about this in "Watchers" (by Raymond Fowler, about the Betty Andreasson Luca encounters.) He devotes part of Chapter 11 to speculation about this. I'm just going to pick and choose quotes to explain: "The similarity between the physical appearance of the so-called Watchers and the human fetus is striking." "Neoteny is the phenomenon of a fetal or a larval form of a species that bypassesnormal physical development and becomes sexually mature." "Back in the 1920's, an anatomist names Louis Bolk...theorized that Homo sapiens is physically a fetal ape which has become sexually mature." "Through genetic engineering, our future descendants could bypass neoteny by natural selection and easily produce human beings of small stature and large heads very similar to the aliens being reported. The fetal head, allowed to develop and grow in an artificial womb, would significantly increase the size and the capability of the brain of the new Homo sapiens." He speculates that the Watchers and Homo sapiens might both have been created from advanced extraterrestrials who have visited earth since man's beginning - with the Watchers being given the role of caretakers. Others speculate that the Watchers may be our descendants coming back in time to revitalize their gene bank, which may have been adversely affected by environmental damage.
