[CTRL] Bolivia - Public Announcement
Title: Bolivia - Public Announcement PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTU.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATEOffice of the Spokesman BoliviaApril 27, 2001 American citizens traveling to or residing in Bolivia should be aware that several groups have been staging marches, setting up road blocks, and organizing strikes in protest of various Bolivian Government policies. These groups include an organization protesting privatization of basic utilities in the city of Cochabamba as well as transport workers, illegal coca leaf growers and indigenous groups in other parts of Bolivia. Coca growers recently marched in Yungas and similar events may take place in Chapare. As these are the major coca-producing regions in Bolivia, American citizens may wish to avoid both these areas. While the Government of Bolivia has actively sought to engage all legitimate groups in dialogue and to discourage violent demonstrations, there have been clashes that have resulted in the accidental deaths of two Bolivian citizens. Although American citizens have not been specifically targeted by any of the protesting groups, they should avoid crowds and demonstrations, keep a low profile, monitor local news sources and review their travel plans to avoid areas that may be the scene of roadblocks, marches, strikes or other kinds of protests. For general information on travel to Bolivia, please consult the Department of States Consular Information Sheet available at http://travel.state.gov.

[CTRL] : Defending the Southern Heritage, 2001
-Caveat Lector- {{I am sure that some of our kinder, gentler (ha!) lib posters will want to claim this is off topic but let me assure you that I have watched this conspiracy evolve over my entire lifetime. The South is the scapegoat onto which the nation foist its various social ills regardless of the nature of the truth of the matter. Example: Everyone knows that no matter how racist their own area is, it is MUCH worse down South, right??? This is totally false but is so beloved an idea that the rest of the country will never abandon this way of thinking. How long since there has been any kind of race riot, march, etc. in Birmingham? At least 40 years, a lifetime for the majority of people living there. Compare and contrast to Watts, Compton, Miami, New York (Benson Heights), Detroit, Cincinnati and on and on. Check the latest census for confirmation of blacks returning to the deep South, etc. since 1970 when jobs became available. I DO hope we stop fighting the wars for America and let others do this in the future. Too many Southerners have died fighting for a country that treats them and their families as second class citizens. Every time there a major disaster like the bombing of the Marine barracks, etc. the number of Southerners listed is far out of population proportion. Like Jimmy Carter, I am a Southerner before being an American and shall remain so at least until the war crimes committed against this region and the following economic sanctions which lasted until WWII are admitted and addressed. Why make such an issue of Kerry when there is such a tradition of waging war against non-combatants? Erect a monument of him ala Sherman and pay homage! Amelia}} Subject: FW: Defending the Southern Heritage, 2001 http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig/wilson3.html Defending the Southern Heritage, 2001 by Clyde Wilson Many good people have been working in recent years to preserve public acknowledgment and celebration of our Confederate history. Our fights have been largely defensive reactions to the innumerable strokes of our enemies, and most of them have been defeats. Our enemies control most of the respectable political, religious, educational, business, and media institutions of American society, including nearly all Southern institutions. We have lost in part because many defenders of Confederate symbols have not understood the nature of the battle. Southerners are a conservative people. They prefer the traditional to the abstract and are slow to adopt new theories (one of the several characteristics that distinguish them from other inhabitants of the United States). This is a good and healthy virtue, but like all virtues it can, if we are not careful, become a self-defeating rigidity. The conservative philosopher Russell Kirk contrasted mere stand-patter conservatism of the dull-witted or poor in spirit who reject anything new with the true conservatism of an Edmund Burke or a John C. Calhoun who perceived that it was necessary to change in order to conserve because new conditions had created new threats to our patrimony. Unfortunately, too many spokesmen in the fight for Southern heritage are stand-patters, i.e., dinosaurs on their way to extinction. They are trying to live in a world that they grew up in but which does not exist any more. The world that they grew up in accepted Southerners and Southern heritage as a positive part of America. That world began disappearing a half century ago and is almost gone. After Reconstruction, which all sensible Northerners came to realize had been a grievous mistake, most Americans, North and South, took the Road to Reunion. Southerners had to agree that they were glad that the Union had been saved and a stronger America had emerged. (They were already genuinely glad of the end of slavery.) For the most part they did this with sincerity and enthusiasm (they had to if they had any hopes of personal success). Southerners became good and loyal members of the new America. They have lived up to that pledge every generation since, in fact have been the most loyal of all Americans and done more than their fair share in every war. As their part of the bargain, Northerners acknowledged that Southerners had been brave and honorable in their war for independence, and their heroes, like Lee and Jackson, would be celebrated as American heroes. (There were always a few old Yankees around who wanted to exterminate the rebels, and indeed there still are, but they were a minority.) This is why The Birth of a Nation, creation of D.W. Griffith, son of a Confederate soldier, could be regarded as a national epic at the beginning of the twentieth century. Will Rogers, another son of a Confederate soldier, was a national institution and he and Shirley Temple and many others portrayed very sympathetic Southern characters in the
[CTRL] Nationwide survey shows bullying widespread among students
-Caveat Lector- Survey figures Nationwide survey shows bullying widespread among students From News Services Wednesday, April 25, 2001 Amid growing concern over school violence, a nationwide study has found that bullying affects nearly one of every three U.S. children in sixth through 10th grades. Young students and boys were most likely to be affected. The authors say their 1998 survey of 15,686 public and private school students is among the first to document the prevalence of bullying in U.S. classrooms, and the results show that not enough has been done to prevent what is often seen as an unpleasant rite of passage. It's a problem that has been in a lot of ways ignored for quite a while, said lead author and researcher Tonja Nansel of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. The survey appears in today's Journal of the American Medical Association. It is part of the U.S. contribution to a study of worldwide childhood health and behavior by the World Health Organization. Bullying has been implicated in recent school shootings, including the March slayings of two students in Santee, Calif., and the 1999 massacre of 13 by two students at Columbine High in Colorado. A growing number of schools across the country have adopted bullying intervention programs; the Colorado Legislature is considering a proposal that would require school districts to develop an anti-bullying policy. Among the most recent programs in Minnesota schools to combat violence, including bullying, is the Safe Schools/Healthy Students program that is being organized in the St. Paul public schools and the Fertile-Beltrami School District in northwestern Minnesota. They are two of 77 sites nationwide with grants from the U.S. Departments of Education, Justice and Health and Human Services that are intended to make schools safe by making their communities safer, using a combination of educational, mental health and social services. The initiative is based on evidence that a comprehensive communitywide approach is an effective way to ... address the problems of school violence, program sponsors said. According to information from the Department of Justice, the St. Paul program includes a violence-prevention curriculum, mental health centers in schools to combat violence and suicide, and projects on peaceful parenting and school readiness. Participating schools are Battle Creek Middle School, Cleveland Quality Middle School, Hazel Park Academy, Mississippi Magnet and Bruce Vento Elementary School. Participating agencies, besides the school district, include the Wilder Foundation, the St. Paul Police Department and Big Brothers Big Sisters. The Fertile-Beltrami Schools, trying to rebound from the 1997 flooding that among other things prompted a soaring school mobility rate, is leading seven school districts and social agencies with plans for home-based nurse visits for struggling mothers, expanded after-school programs, and Spanish translations of all school materials. Such programs, Nansel said, have been shown to work in other countries but are untested in the United States, where efforts to address the problem have been hampered by a pervasive attitude that kids will be kids and this is just going to happen. Since nationwide research on bullying is so scarce, the survey doesn't show whether the U.S. prevalence is rising, she said. And while it did not examine criminal behavior, the survey found that fighting was more common among bullies and bullied children. Researchers also point out that the study has limitations. It relies on the children's own assessments, which may not be wholly accurate. The merits of the study are obvious: the size of the study and the fact that it's a representative sample covering both middle and high school, said Jaana Juvonen, a behavioral scientist at Rand Corp. in Santa Monica, Calif. But it's important to recognize that this study is all based on self report. Children who said they were bullied reported more loneliness and difficulty making friends, while those who did the bullying were more likely to have poor grades and to smoke and drink alcohol, the survey found. Other research has shown that people who were bullied as children are prone to depression and low self-esteem as adults, and that bullies are more likely to engage in criminal behavior. Kevin Dwyer, a school psychologist and adviser for the National Mental Health Association, said there is evidence that the incidence of physical fights and violence in schools has declined in recent years. To reduce bullying, schools need to involve all staff members, parents and even student bystanders. People need to recognize that adolescence is not an easy time, he said. We should prepare for it, which we don't. We treat adolescents as if they're little adults and we request of them to kind of take care of themselves. -- Star

You need the background information provided by these two articles to understand the shocking revelation this article is to provide. NEWS BRIEF: "Environmentalists and Farmers Clash Over The Future of Farming: Horns Locked In Combat", The Herald, April 19, 2001, Rural Viewpoint Section. [NOTE: This is a British paper] " 'The loss of sheep from hillsides as a result of foot-and-mouth epidemic may be good for the rural environment' ... That is the view being put forward by Morgan Parry, head of the Worldwide Fund For the Future (WWF) in Wales. Speaking from his home in Rhos Isaf, Mr. Parry said: 'Their sheer numbers on many hills reduced the landscape and wildlife value dramatically. Many formerly common birds ... are near to extinction in Wales ... The cost of keeping the sheep is equal to, or greater than, their sale value. If the sheep were to be removed tomorrow, the loss to the rural economy would be insignificant." Animal Rights advocates and their counterparts, the Extreme Environmentalists, have long been espousing the ultimate viewpoint of Radical Humanism. This viewpoint says that, while man is the most sophisticated animal in the world right now, he is also an evil predatorthat needs to be constrained if Mother Gaia [Earth] is to survive. You see, they believe that man has used his temporary mental intelligencesuperiority to rule harshly over Mother Nature, and to cause the death of countless numbers of animals, and extinction of entire species. Man must be forced to curtail his ruinous ways, especially men of today's Industrial Civilization. Such advocates firmly believe man must be removed from enormous stretches of the landscape, if the indigenous creatures that have lived there in the past are to survive. Extreme Environmentalists and Animal Rights advocates have long called for an end to the killing of animals for meat, and for letting the land go back to Nature.Such advocates have even coined a term for this position -- "re-wilding", i.e., letting the land go back to the normal Nature that existed before wicked modern man came on the scene. We have reported on this extremely dangerous aspect in the above articles, and we point out that this viewpoint was firmly supported by the Clinton Administration. Many of Clinton's Executive Orders setting aside land by preventing any Industrial Civilization development of it, were issued because Clinton and Gore were firmly supportive of this radical viewpoint. Now, let us go back to our feature article, above, as Morgan Perry outlines his radical views that the English countryside should just now go back to the wild. "The hard economic reality is that there is no money in keeping sheep in the hills. A major shift in rural policy now could be hugely beneficial to the rural economy, from wildlife conservation, tourism, to woodland management." The terms, "wildlife conservation" and "woodland management" are code words within Radical Environmentalism for "re-wilding". They literally mean forcing human beings with their modern despicable farming methods, off the land, and allowing the land to return to its natural state. Fortunately for our understanding, Mr. Parry makes this point rather clear in his next statement. "For wildlife, the benefits would come very quickly. Ungrazed land ... would develop a rich mosaic of grasses, rushes, and herbs under scattered shrubs and individual trees. Far from being a problem, hawthorn, hazel, and willow scrub is marvelously rich in bird and insect life. In time, some woodland would develop and more could be

-Caveat Lector- Moore is not to be trusted based on his voice inflection in my early days of UFO speaker monitoring. He is very pleased with himself and speaks from a position of externally-imposed authority, i think. but what do i know???) On 2 May 01, at 10:21, Dale Stonehouse wrote: -Caveat Lector- MAJESTIC 12-THE ULTIMATE SECRET In December 1984, via the mail, in a plain brown envelope, to private UFO investigator Bill Moore and his film producer friend, and associate, Mr. Jaime Shandera. Mr. Bill Moore is a well known private UFO investigator, and is co-author, with Charles Berlitz, of the book The Roswell Incident. Unknown to the public is the fact that Bill Moore was recruited as an agent of the CIA. Maybe it is generally unknown, but some of us had it figured out years ago. The following post drew some nervous denial from Friedman on various mailing lists, but he didn't convince me. In the acknowledgments section of The Roswell Incident are several people I met in Herman, MN (home of the world's most famous bachelors a few years ago). Some are school administrators, fellow teachers, coaches and some are farmers. Regular yokels, if you will. If anyone has any recent information on Moore I would like to see it. From Feb. 1998: To: RISKERS/NUFOIA Mailing List Subject: The Front: William L. Moore From: UFO Sky Searchers International From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Dale Stonehouse) From: SearchNet's IUFO Mailing List In the 1976 movie The Front, Woody Allen played a dimwit hired to put his name on scripts authored by blacklisted writers in the 1950s. Is Bill Moore also a front for unnamed writers in his published books The Roswell Incident and The Philadelphia Experiment, both possibly works of disinformation? Both were allegedly coauthored by Charles Berlitz, but it is accepted that he agreed to have his name ascribed to get publishers to take the books. Consider that Moore was teaching drama and French at Herman High School in Herman, MN (pop. 600) in the 1970s after leaving military service, when he met Stanton Friedman at a lecture at the University of Minnesota-Morris, 14 miles away. Herman is about as rural as America gets. I know, having spent much time there. My ex-wife is a 1977 graduate of Herman High School and in her school yearbooks there is Moore, just the average teacher. Soon after meeting Friedman Moore became the author of The Roswell Incident, even though Friedman was much more qualified to write such a book, having done the lion's share of research on Roswell. Yes, Moore did additional research and his books are entertaining, but when Moore announced at a UFO conference in 1989 at Las Vegas that he had helped intelligence agents with the Paul Bennewitz problem, feeding Bennewitz false information, he was dismissed by much of the UFO community. Even more puzzling is this: Moore had two books published in a two-year period, and in the 18 years since then, has had no other books published. As a military veteran myself, I know how recruits are approached early in their career if they are thought to have potential for use by intelligence agencies. And once an asset, you are always potentially available for use by the agencies, even as a civilian. Is this the real story behind Moore and his books? Friedman knows the answer to that question, as he probably recruited Moore for just such a purpose. Perhaps Moore's 1989 revelation in Las Vegas was his way of ending his association with the agencies, perhaps out of disgust for what he had been asked to do. Whether any of this is accurate or not, the publication of the book The Roswell Incident has kept researchers running around in circles for almost 20 years trying to confirm its validity. As disinformation it is probably the best ever produced.

http://foxnews.com/story/0,2933,19857,00.html Professor Cites Evidence That Guns Stop Crimes Wednesday, May 02, 2001 Kris Osborn Email this Article When Thomas Shim moved to Augusta, Ga., and opened up a small convenience store more than four years ago, he planned to build his business peacefully. But that plan was abruptly shattered by violence when he was robbed at gunpoint in his store. His wife Yougim was shot and wounded in the robbery. Fed up and scared, Shim bought a .38-caliber pistol for protection. That decision that may have saved his life, because in July of 1999, Shim's store was robbed at gunpoint once again. Fearing for his life, Mr. Shim shot and killed the armed robber, a career criminal named Anthony Boyd. If I didn't have a gun I would have been killed, Shim told Fox News. I grabbed my gun, clicked it ... and shot him. At that moment, I had to survive. Shim's story is one of many cited in research by Yale University Professor John R. Lott Jr., author of More Guns, Less Crime. Lott says his research shows that guns used defensively stop about 2 million crimes a year, five times the amount of crimes in which guns are used. No one has found bad effects resulting from right-to-carry laws, Lott said, citing instances in which the mere presence of a gun played a key role in preventing crimes. When guns are used defensively, most of those times, the gun is not fired, said University of Georgia Professor David Mustard, who collaborated with Lott. Lott says most media reports ignore the life-saving aspects of guns. In his research, he compiles instances across the country where the simple brandishing of a gun prevented crime. But not everyone agrees. The Coalition to Stop Gun Violence, which advocates the banning of handguns and assault weapons, cites different statistics and says Lott's findings are incorrect. Its a myth to believe that people carrying guns creates a safer society, said spokesman Mike Beard. If you look at the FBI uniform crime reports, they show that gun deaths are the highest in the areas of the country that have the highest gun ownership. But Lott stands by his reasearch, telling Fox News: The vast majority of academics who have looked at this issue have found results similar to what I have found. Arguments in the statistical war will continue to be shot back and forth, but as far as Thomas Shim is concerned, the matter has been decided. As long as I have a gun, I feel better, he said.

http://drudgereport.com/cost.htm X DRUDGE REPORT X WED MAY 02, 2001 09:37:28 ET X NEW BOOK GOES BEHIND-THE-SCENES OF U.S. ELECTION MESS **EXCLUSIVE** Vice President Al Gore's lawyers high-fived each other after disqualifying more than 1,000 military ballots from overseas on trumped-up hypertechnicalities during the Florida recount, a new book reveals. Here comes the book of books on the Florida election standoff: At Any Cost: How Al Gore Tried to Steal the Election, by Bill Sammon, Senior White House Correspondent for the WASHINGTON TIMES. A win's a win, crowed one of Gore's lawyers after tossing out the ballot of Navy Lieutenant John Russell, who at that moment was off the coast of Yemen, where he had just finished rescuing the USS Cole in the wake of a deadly terrorist attack. Sammon tracked Russell down for the officer's first ever interview. I was hot, Russell said. Here I am, deployed overseas. I've done everything I can to cast my ballot properly. And I find out my vote doesn't count because of a lousy postmark even though they received it before Election Day. Oh, I was torqued. Sammon, who spent 18 months covering the Gore campaign and all 36 days of the post-election debacle in Florida, has inked a blow-by-blow of the historic standoff. The DRUDGE REPORT has secured the first advance copy. Sammon reveals how Republicans got their hands on the Gore team's secret memo detailing how to disqualify military ballots. Sammon also gets Democratic strategist Bob Beckel to describe, for the first time, how his quest to flip Bush electors unleashed a backlash of public outrage that frightened him and his family. MORE Beckel told the author: It got nasty, I tell you. I got 15,000 faxes, 10,000 letters, 2,000 phone calls, 132 death threats. They picked up a guy in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania with my picture and a bullet hole through it with a gun. So it was just brutal. They got into my garage at my office and wrote 'You're dead.' I had to go into protective custody. Sammon secured exclusive interviews with Bush and Cheney, asking them to describe their darkest moments during the 36-day standoff.

BARDWELL and ERIC BERGER Copyright 2001 Houston Chronicle While public officials are outraged over the sale of an elderly widow's home because of unpaid property-owner association dues, information from a Harris County official shows the homeowners' group tried to buy the house at an auction. Champions Community Improvement Association called for the auction of 82-year-old Wenonah Blevins' $150,000 home in Champions subdivision in March because she had failed to pay two years of homeowner fees totaling $814.50. An e-mail from Constable Ron Hickman to county Tax Assessor-Collector Paul Bettencourt detailed the March 6 sale and the three offers by two bidders. The association bid $4,200. The home was sold for $5,000 to Daniel Hilal, who initially bid the minimum $499. Blevins, however, said she didn't know the association had initiated the foreclosure proceedings. She said she put a check for the overdue maintenance fees in the homeowners' association mail slot last August and didn't know it wasn't cashed. Attorney Marian S. Rosen, who represents Blevins, said her client had pneumonia at some time during the two years and may have neglected to pay some of her required fees. She also may have mistaken correspondence from the association for junk mail because it was addressed to Mr. W.L. Blevins, Rosen said. Bob Cheaney, the association's accountant, said the group sends certified letters, and that Blevins' check was returned to her by registered mail. The check was returned, Rosen said, because legal proceedings had already been initiated against Blevins. She said Blevins has no record that she received the returned check. But Cheaney said, At that point in time, it was not in the courts. It was in the preliminary stages. (Her check) was returned because it was not full payment. Blevins, who has no living family, now resides with a friend. Her only companion, a house cat, is living with her neighbor. She had paid for the house, where she lived alone for the past 15 years. A court hearing is set for May 18 on Blevins' suit to prevent the sale of the contents taken from her house, which are now in a storage facility. Blevins also wants the court to void the sale of her house and return it to her. The auction has outraged local and state politicians, including legislators who scurried to pass laws to prevent such proceedings. It was an unconscionably stupid thing to do, said Bettencourt, adding that foreclosure should be used only as a last resort. They kicked an 82-year-old woman out of her home over 800 bucks, which is absolutely asinine, he said. Al Brooks, association president, said he could not comment on the sale pending the outcome of Blevins' lawsuit. The association did not bid on the home on Blevins' behalf, Rosen said. Upon Bettencourt's request, the county attorney's office agreed to look into the association's actions and study the matter to determine if the office has jurisdiction. Bettencourt was not the association's only critic Wednesday. We have received at least 30 calls this morning, calling us Gestapo and Hitler, Cheaney said. There's no way we can put a good spin on this; it's a horrible story. We never, ever wanted to sell property out from under someone just because of maintenance fees. In Austin, meanwhile, two area GOP legislators -- Sen. Jon Lindsay and Rep. Peggy Hamric -- began applying pressure on the homeowners' association. This is simply unfair, Lindsay said. As early as today, he is expected to introduce a bill that would force a homeowners' association that auctions a foreclosed home to pay the original owner the difference between the home's appraised value and the auction price. In Blevins' case, she would be paid $145,000. But Lindsay admits it will be difficult to pass the bill in this legislative session with less than four weeks remaining. Lindsay and Hamric also plan to add a pair of amendments to legislation relating to homeowners' associations. One amendment would make the rules by which an association could auction a foreclosed home similar to those followed by taxing entities, including cities, counties and school districts. Such entities must allow an original homeowner to repurchase a foreclosed homestead within one year of the auction for the sale price plus 25 percent. The second amendment would require an association board member to visit a homeowner against whom the board is considering action. The board member would have to clearly explain the ramifications of not paying association fees, Lindsay said. In a related development, Bettencourt said he plans to investigate the unpaid taxes on many of the 200 properties owned by Hilal of First Capital Interests, which purchased Blevins' house. Hilal, who has not returned phone calls, owes
[CTRL] Smart Guns
-Caveat Lector- http://www.boston.com/news/daily/02/smith.htm Gun maker may get $2.8 million for 'smart gun' research By Associated Press, 05/02/01 SPRINGFIELD -- Smith Wesson is reportedly in line for a $2.8 million federal grant to develop a smart handgun that can be fired only by an authorized user. The Union-News in Springfield reported Wednesday that the Bush administration has agreed to provide the money after personal lobbying by Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., and U.S. Rep. Richard Neal, D-Mass. The money had been promised by the Clinton administration as part of the Springfield gun maker's agreement last year to install safety locks on all of its guns and to adopt other safety features and marketing changes. In return, the gun maker was dropped from some federal lawsuits. Following the agreement, other gun makers and gun rights supporters accused Smith Wesson of selling out. The company said its sales were cut in half and last fall it laid off 125 workers.

[CTRL] 12-Year-Old Girl Won't Be Charged (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- Comment from a Gunsafe member: Notice that this AP article showed no compassion for the child or the mother who were the victims. There was no mention of grief counseling or sympathy. I saw nothing on the daily news. They didn't mention the mothers pain or if the child cried! As a matter of fact they specifically stated the girl would not be charged in the incident, as if she should be. This is the a good example of how deeply rooted the media ignorance and bias really is. I guess since it was a positive use of a gun saving a life it doesn't deserve national TV or newspaper coverage. For saving her Mom's life, I think the girl is a hero. http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/ap/20010501/us/brf_child_shooting_1.html Tuesday May 1 11:21 PM ET 12-Year-Old Girl Won't Be Charged CLARKSDALE, Miss. (AP) - A 12-year-old girl who shot and killed her mother's attacker will not be charged, police said Tuesday. The girl was asleep in her room when Anthony Fox chased her mother into their apartment, forcing his way through the door, Detective Danny Hill said. ``She heard the commotion and she knew from past experience what was going on,'' Hill said. The girl saw Fox choking her mother, grabbed her mother's pistol and fired a single shot into his chest, Hill said. The county coroner said Fox, 25, died of a single gunshot wound to the chest Saturday at an area hospital. Fox had been arrested for domestic violence against the girl's mother, his on-and-off girlfriend, at least twice, Hill said. A youth court judge ruled the shooting self-defense, Hill said.

Re: [CTRL] Behold a Dead Horse?
-Caveat Lector- Actually this does not even refer to Bill Moore. The original post mentioned that in various places are references to a William Milton Cooper and a William C.

Because of my research on Bill Moore that includes his teaching job in Minnesota and Stanton Friedman's account of how they met in his book Top Secret Majic (or whatever the title was), it is difficult for me to see how anyone, even 10 years ago, could think Moore and Cooper are the same person.

Old wine in new bottles, how the Nazis have come back into power. Horne, Alistair, *Return To Power,* Fredrick A. Praeger, Inc., New York, 1956. The struggle for unification, rather than any revival of Nazism, may one day force Germany out of the Western camp. Tetens, T.H., *The New Germany And The Old Nazis,* Random House, New York, 1961. A frank and often shocking account which details how 'Hitler's own' have managed to return to power in almost every walk of German life... Winkler, Paul, *The Thousand-Year Conspiracy,* Charles Scribner's Sons, 1943. Secret Germany behind the mask. White, Theodore H., *Fire In The Ashes,* William Sloane Associates, New York, 1953. The fire of Nazism in the ashes of Europe. Sayers, Michael and Kahn, Albert E., *The Plot Against The Peace,* Book Find Club, New York, 1945. ...uncovers Nazi Germany's secret plans for a Third World War. Schultz, Sigrid, *Germany Will Try It Again,* Reynal Hitchcock, New York, 1944. Does the title give you a clue? Dornberg, John, *Schizophrenic Germany,* MacMillan Company, New York, 1961. Is the new West Germany of the postwar years as democratic as we have been led to believe, or does Nazism still smolder? Lord Russell, Brigadier, of Liverpool, C.B.E., M.C., *Return of the Swastika? David McKay Co., New York, 1969. Russell was part of the Nuremberg prosecution team. There are more, these just happen to be the ones in my personal library. I read them, mostly about 20 or 30 years ago. I do not mean to give the impression that Germany is the source of the world's problems; Germany has simply been a part of a much bigger picture. Other valuable books that will give you insight are: Bacque, James, *Other Losses,* Stoddart Publishing Co., Canada, 1989. The truth about how Eisenhower murdered thousands of German prisoners of war AFTER the surrender. Many of those starving soldiers and piles of dead bodies you have seen in atrocity photos were NOT Jews, they were Germans. Don't argue with me, read the book. General George Patton wrote in 1945 that Eisenhower was using practically Gestapo methods in torturing and killing German POWs. You can obtain the book probably from *Spotlight* Newspaper if you can't find it otherwise. Sutton, Anthony C., *Wall Street And The Rise Of Hitler, '76 Press, Seal Beach, Calif., 1976. ALBERT EINSTEIN Albert Einstein is a good example of another deception and hoax involved with the atomic bomb program. When many people think of the atomic bomb they think of Einstein. He was presented as the world's greatest scientist, and a hero of the atomic bomb program. Upon closer inspection, you will find that his major contributions were his use of his influence to obtain President Roosevelt's support for the bomb and he was the one personally responsible for bringing the major Communist atomic spy Klaus Fuchs into the Program. The Russians know nothing about the atomic bomb until Fuchs brought it to their attention in 1942. (*Heisenberg's War,* p. 524). Thanks to Fuchs, (and to a massive amount of Secret material illegally shipped through Lend-Lease) they were able to explode their own bomb in 1949. Einstein was a communist cell member with Fuchs. Fuchs was the top scientist on the Manhattan Project and he gave the atomic secrets to the Soviets. (Jordan, George Recey, *From Major Jordan's Diaries,* Harcourt, Brace and Co., New York, 1952.) We are taught that Einstein is the author of the Theory of Relativity, yet evidence has come for the proving that the real author was Mileva Maric, Einstein's first wife. Einstein had a reputation at the Swiss Polytechnic Institute in Zurich of being a man with poor work habits and was often reprimanded for laziness during all his school years, including the University. He developed a romance with classmate Mileva who helped him with his math. His autobiography says In my work participated a Serbian student Mileva Maric who I married later. She had an illegitimate daughter in 1902, which they gave up for adoption. They got married in 1903, separated in 1912 and divorced in 1919. This is when Einstein married his cousin Elsa. The original manuscript of the *The Theory of Relativity* submitted for publication had Maric's name on it as co-author. For more proof,

Of course in keeping with your Spencerian views we could say that the reason is is that these people are simply too stupid to live. You assume too much.

The concept of race is ignorant. There is no different races, merely local environmental adaptations. If people are capable of breeding, they cannot be a different species. However there is no doubt that different races, i.e. different localized tribes may hold different cultural / economic / political values based on their local experiences. That said, I do find that the whole false notion of diversity is a red herring promulgated by those who seek to glorify tribalism and separatism.

Saba Please help support the Crime Library by visiting our sponsor: Here is first chapter on Ira. Ira Einhorn: Psychedelic Unicorn of Death by Joseph Geringer Counterculture Killer When the Philadelphia police came to the apartment building at 3411 Race Street at 9 a.m. on the morning of March 28, 1979, they weren't too sure what they would find. The Powelton Village district of the city was not a high-crime area; it was too collegiate for that, housing the University of Pennsylvania within and emanating a scholastic aire. As well, the person whose quarters they were just about to search was not, by the farthest stretch of the imagination, the type of individual who would commit the depth of crime for which he was suspected. Stepping into the foyer as a group, the police mixed of plainclothesmen and uniformed officers watched quietly as their commander, Detective Michael Chitwood, pressed the caller button under the name, EINHORN, stenciled above it. The cops paused a moment, waiting, studying the dimness and age of the entranceway, before an electronic buzzer sounded to open the security door to the stairwell. When Chitwood, leading the entourage up the wooden steps, saw the fat man with a grisly beard in a bath robe staring down at them from the landing, his first thought was, He doesn't look like an icon. For a moment the detective's and Ira Einhorn's eyes caught. The former's set of orbs communicated determination and probably cold determination; the latter's seemed not fearful, as Chitwood might have expected, but blankness. Maybe hollow. There was, however, a bit of a quizzical shape to his lips. But, there he was, looking half-asleep more than anything. The fat man with the unkempt beard, the King of the Radicals, the Prince of Flower Power, the Guru of Peace and Love. He called himself poetically, Unicorn, because the name Einhorn (a German-Jewish name) means one horn. But, this character was not a myth; he was very real and had created from an innocent era a flip-side world of reefers and LSD and free love. His was an innovation in the Age of Aquarius and he was the Chief Acquarian in Philadelphia, at one time revered by the new generation of the 1960s. Now, as the detectives ascended the steps, this self-imposed media hype considered as great as Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin, wore a bathrobe stained with rust,; his dirty ankles and dirtier toenails protruded from under. Coming yet closer, the detective chief thought he sensed a scratch of worry in his eyeballs. Chitwood passed him a search warrant, told him to read it, then sign it. The Unicorn, he noticed, had body odor. The favorite son of the psychedelic crowd seemed to be a wash-out. Neighbors below Einhorn's flat had been complaining for some time that that they were detecting a terrible stench coming through the floorboards, accompanied by an occasional oozing of putrid brown matter that stained their ceiling. They tried to paint it out and sanitize the smell with disinfectants. But, the odor increased. And the oozing continued. When the building foreman investigated the problem, Einhorn refused to let the man check a closet from where the smell seemed to be coming. The city police got wind of this occurrence, they started wondering if maybe just maybe it had something to do with a body they had been unable to find for the last 18 months. That is, what might be left of Holly Maddux, Einhorn's old flame, who had disappeared one day into the ether. Holly's disappearance hadn't made sense to her family in Tyler, Texas, not from day one. She had been bright, beautiful and bouncy; and, while not particularly overjoyed with the essentials of her life back in September, 1997, she just didn't seem the kind of woman who would run off to a deserted isle or join a left-wing group of dissidents as had Patty Hearst. But, disappeared she had, Ira said back then. Gone to the store to never returned. The relationship between Einhorn and his live-in girlfriend had been, to say the least, stormy over the five years they had been together.

-Caveat Lector- So he was not too bright it is alleged? Here is an item by little Priscilla - as I recall she was part of the Kellogg Heirs and they used UFO's one August to sell a new cereal? KGB for years and years used KKK as a front - blaming neo nazis for their murder and assassinations which is more polite term..for even in the authorized book Death of a President Mrs. Kennedy had reference to the KKK removed - for she knew it was a silly little communist who had murdered her husband and the criminal syndicate of Marcellos and Meyer Lansky was involved. It still did not savae her son in the end did it. So little Priscilla who wrote this story, is the same Priscilla who interviewed Oswald when he was in Russia - Oswald left with a mastoic scar behind his ear but when he returned, no evidence of such a scar in his autopsy? Marilyn Monroe and Albert Einstein? Now what possibly could these two have in common - not that they needed anyting..she was once a good propaganda tool for USA when married to Joe DiMagio - but, when married to Arthur Miller she became cats paw for Communists.think JFK did not know she was used to get next to him? As Marilyn once said prior to her death and during her friendship with Albert when asked what she thought about communism replied well they are for the people, aren't they. If the KGB did not get her - somebody's Mafia did, but it was not J Edgar Hoover.try Arthur Miller's side of fence. John Fitzgerald Kennedy's dream was to land a man on the moon in the 60 period; he didmeanwhile the KGB had set up KKK's around the country which later boasted the Navy Walker spies, an would not be surprised if Jonathan Pollard was card carrying Klansman - what a front - it took the help of 5 golden KKK Dragons to week out the KGB in Klan. Saba NOTE: Priscilla interviewed Oswald when in Russia.was she used as messenger and if so for whom? Presume this is Yankee Doodle Girl on nobody's payroll for with their money, they do not need a charge card Year Index | Month Index The Sudoplatov File Flimsy Memories By Priscilla Johnson McMillan Years ago, Lord Alfred Duff Cooper, a member of Britain's wartime cabinet, wrote a much-reviewed memoir called Old Men Forget. The book was a helpful addition to what we knew about British politics and diplomacy in the 1930s and 1940s. Special Tasks: The Memoirs of an Unwanted Witness-a Soviet Spymaster by Pavel and Anatoli Sudoplatov with Jerrold and Leona Schecter, is an opposite sort of memoir-an example of what can happen when old men try to remember, prodded by editorial collaborators who publish a story without corroborating evidence. As a result, an 87-year-old retired Soviet secret police officer with a line to peddle has been abetted in accusing four Manhattan Project scientists of espionage, charges that reopened wounds that had never completely healed after the Oppenheimer Security Hearings of 1954. Make no mistake, Pavel Sudoplatov has a line to sell. He joined the Red Army in 1919 at the age of 12, entered army intelligence a year later, and spent his career in the Soviet secret police under chiefs whose names still evoke shudders in Moscow-Genrikh Yagoda, Nikolai Yezhov, and Lavrenti Beria. His version of history is Stalinist, with the Great Purges excused on the grounds that Stalin built the Soviet Union into a great power, and that his reformist epigones brought about its downfall. Sudoplatov believes that after Stalin's death, Beria, his boss for 15 years, could have reformed the country while deploying sufficient terror to hold the Soviet system together. In sum, Sudoplatov is a unique and sinister figure and, although there has been a flood of reminiscences in Moscow in recent years, he is the first official of his rank in the Soviet secret police to speak out since Alexander Orlov published The Secret History of Stalin's Crimes in 1953. Special Tasks was introduced in April in this country via an excerpt in Time magazine and a segment on the MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour. It has even produced a fissure between two Hoover Institution fellows-Sovietologist Robert Conquest, who wrote an admiring forward, and Edward Teller, who disagrees with the charges against the scientists, especially those leveled against Enrico Fermi and Niels Bohr. Is the book, as Conquest claims, the most sensational, the most devastating, and in many ways the most informative autobiography ever to emerge from the Stalinist milieu? Or has potentially useful oral testimony been so doctored and so misleadingly presented as to have forfeited credibility? Even a skeptical reader is likely to feel that Sudoplatov's story rings true when he describes operations in which he had a hands-on role, such as the murders of Ukrainian nationalist leader Yevhen Konovalets in Rotterdam in 1938 and Leon Trotsky in Mexico City in 1940, as well as his own imprisonment from 1953 to 1968 and his efforts to achieve rehabilitation thereafter.

[CTRL] Truth About the 14th Amendment~~Southern Heritage
-Caveat Lector- {{I have always liked de Tocqueville's account of Democracy in America because he was not a federal government propagandist--maybe one of the few objective reports of the time. He had no reason to give things the 'spin' being promulgated from Washington so maybe that accounts for his perennial popularity with professors who are a least somewhat objective and interested in a more truthful account.Amelia}} ~~for educational purposes only~~ [Title 17 U.S.C. section 107] Truth About the 14th Amendment Thomas J. DiLorenzo Legal scholar Gene Healy has made a powerful argument in favor of abolishing the Fourteenth Amendment to the US Constitution. When a fair vote was taken on it in 1865, in the aftermath of the War for Southern Independence, it was rejected by the Southern states and all the border states. Failing to secure the necessary three-fourths of the states, the Republican party, which controlled Congress, passed the Reconstruction Act of 1867 which placed the entire South under military rule. The purpose of this, according to one Republican congressman, was to coerce Southern legislators to vote for the amendment at the point of a bayonet. President Andrew Johnson called this tactic absolute despotism, the likes of which had not been exercised by any British monarch for more than 500 years. For his outspokenness Johnson was impeached by the Republican Congress. The South eventually voted to ratify the amendment, after which two Northern states -- Ohio and New Jersey -- withdrew support because of their disgust with Republican party tyranny. The Republicans just ignored this and declared the amendment valid despite their failure to secure the constitutionally-required three-fourths majority. The Cato Institute's Roger Pilon, who is a supporter of the Fourteenth Amendment, has defended the way in which the amendment was adopted on the grounds that after the war some Southern states had enacted the notorious Black Codes (Liberty Magazine, Feb. 2000). What should Congress have done, Pilon asked, turn a blind eye to what was going on? The notion that a racially-enlightened and benevolent Republican Congress unconstitutionally imposed the Fourteenth Amendment on the nation because it was motivated primarily (if not solely) out of concern with racial discrimination in the South is childishly naive and ahistorical. The fact is, Northern states pioneered viciously discriminatory black codes long before they existed in any Southern state, and these codes were supported by many of the same Northern politicians who voted for the Fourteenth Amendment. The Revised Code of Indiana stated in 1862 that Negroes and mulattos are not allowed to come into the state; forbade the consummation of legal contracts with Negroes and mulattos; imposed a $500 fine on anyone who employed a black person; forbade interracial marriage; and forbade blacks from testifying in court against white persons. Illinois -- the land of Lincoln -- added almost identical restrictions in 1848, as did Oregon in 1857. Most Northern states in the 1860s did not permit immigration by blacks or, if they did, required them to post a $1,000 bond that would be confiscated if they behaved improperly. Senator Lyman Trimball of Illinois, a close confidant of Lincoln's, stated that our people want nothing to do with the Negro and was a strong supporter of Illinois' black codes. Northern newspapers were often just as racist as the Northern black codes were. The Philadelphia Daily News editorialized on November 22, 1860, that the African is naturally the inferior race. The Daily Chicago Times wrote on December 7, 1860, that nothing but evil has come from the idea of Abolition and urged everyone to return any escaped slave to his master where he belongs. On January 22, 1861, the New York Times announced that slavery would indeed be a very tolerable system if only slaves were allowed to legally marry, be taught to read, and to invest their savings. In short, the cartoonish notion that the Republican party was so incensed over racial discrimination in the South after the war that, in a fit of moral outrage, it trashed all constitutional precepts to dictatorially adopt the Fourteenth Amendment, should not be taken seriously. As Alexis de Tocqueville wrote in Democracy in America, it was obvious to all that racial prejudice was stronger in the North than it was in the South. The prejudice of race, wrote Tocqueville, appears to be stronger in the states that have abolished slavery than in those where it still exists. If the Republican party was so sensitive about racial discrimination in the post-war era it would not have sent General Sherman out west just three months after the war ended to commence a campaign of genocide against the Plains Indians.

-Caveat Lector- {{I think it speaks volumes that the State of Alabama has done battle with the FBI for forty years to bring this man to trial. It was J. Edgar who closed the case originally and since the FBI owned the tape of Blanton discussing this, the only real evidence to connect him to the bombing, it could not be brought to trial without it. Why would the FBI do this? Many, myself included, have always wondered. The tape WAS probably illegally obtained based on the laws as they existed then. And one man had been convicted in '71. And at the time of the crime, bombings were quite frequent on all sides~~whites bombing blacks, blacks bombing whites and other blacks and probably whites bombing whites! Nothing concerning human nature is ever simple. Finally, in 1997 and with new laws in place, the FBI co-operated resulting in a conviction of the co-conspirator at long last. It would have been so easy to just forget about this and give up and I am very proud of my State's Prosecutor General for not doing that after all these years.

[CTRL] China's Execution, Inc
-Caveat Lector- {{I always thought this was an urban legend like the story about the guy waking up in the bathtub of ice with a kidney misssing! Apparently it is true, at least to some extent. And one must go to China to have the organ implanted, etc. Amelia}} All guts, no glory: Dr. Thomas Diflo, the first American doctor to talk publicly about the issue (photo: Rebecca Cooney) Week of May 2 - 8, 2001 The People's Republic Has Long Been Suspected of Selling Organs From Prisoners. Now One New York Doctor Knows the Rumors Are True. China's Execution, Inc. by Erik Baard and Rebecca Cooney hree years ago, Dr. Thomas Diflo's moral nightmare walked into his examination room: a patient freshly implanted with a kidney bought from China's death row, where prisoners are killed-sometimes for minor offenses-and their organs harvested. Since then, Dr. Diflo, director of the renal transplant program at the New York University Medical Center, has seen half a dozen such people, typically young Chinese American women. The surgeon says his patients weren't distressed about snatching organs from the condemned, but he was overwhelmed by the implications. Unable to shoulder the burden alone, on January 11, Diflo took his horror at a real ethical quagmire to the medical center's Ethics Committee. Diflo is the first American doctor to talk publicly about this experience, and he did so only after being drawn out by the Voice. The gruesome practice has been documented among ethnic Chinese communities throughout Asia, but so far every attempt to prove that people were leaving U.S. soil to buy organs from China's massive death row has failed. To tell you the truth, the original rationale for bringing this situation to the Ethics Committee was my own discomfort in taking care of these patients. I was outraged at the way in which they obtained their organs, and I had a great deal of difficulty separating that fact from the care of the patient, Diflo told the Voice. Several patients were very up-front and candid about it, that they bought an organ taken from an executed convict for about $10,000, Diflo recalls. Most of the patients are ecstatic to be off of dialysis, and none has seemed particularly perturbed regarding the source of the organs. There's no telling how many kidney buyers returning to the U.S. have gone for follow-up care at a less elite institution or stayed within secretive medical channels recommended by their brokers. Diflo gets his patients on referral from recognized hospitals. Patients sort of arrive on their doorstep and they don't know what to do. Not everybody who's had a transplant is cared for by a transplant specialist. I tend to see the more complicated ones, Diflo says. Of all medical disciplines, organ transplantation is perhaps the most bittersweet. Transplants are gifts that coax life from death, that close the door for one person while opening the future for another. But the outright sale of organs is abhorrent to nearly all surgeons in the field. Selling organs is a felony under a 1984 federal law that was spearheaded by then senator Al Gore, and is punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $50,000. Live or executed prisoners in the U.S. are forbidden to donate an organ, even for free, except to family members under special circumstances. In China, human rights groups say, citizens have been executed for nonviolent offenses like taking bribes, credit card theft, small-scale tax evasion, and stealing truckloads of vegetables. Political dissidents have also been sentenced to death. Chinese embassy officials did not respond to requests for comment, but in the past the government has denied promoting the for-profit organ trade. Diflo says he and his colleagues wrestled with the issue in a debate that was quite lively and revealing, but the bottom line was that we take care of patients who come to us, regardless of their situation-moral, ethical, financial, or social. Although I might find what they had done reprehensible, I was still nonetheless obligated to care for them in the best way that I knew how, and that is what I do. But Diflo refuses to let it end at that. Because it is not really appropriate for me to take my outrage out on the patients who come to me, I began to think that I would be better off addressing the root problem, the pilfering of organs from prisoners in China. That is what pushed me to pursue this further, he says. And so he's going public. America-based human rights activists have sought this break for years. The trafficking of human organs from Chinese executions to American residents is something we've always known was going on but something we've never been able to document, says an American investigator working for the Laogai Research Foundation, a group founded by renowned human rights crusader Harry Wu and named for the gulags of China.

These groups include an organization protesting privatization of basic utilities in the city of Cochabamba as well as transport workers, illegal coca leaf growers and indigenous groups in other parts of Bolivia. Coca growers recently marched in Yungas and similar events may take place in Chapare. As these are the major coca-producing regions in Bolivia, American citizens may wish to avoid both these areas. While the Government of Bolivia has actively sought to engage all legitimate groups in dialogue and to discourage violent demonstrations, there have been clashes that have resulted in the accidental deaths of two Bolivian citizens. Although American citizens have not been specifically targeted by any of the protesting groups, they should avoid crowds and demonstrations, keep a low profile, monitor local news sources and review their travel plans to avoid areas that may be the scene of roadblocks, marches, strikes or other kinds of protests. For general information on travel to Bolivia, please consult the Department of States Consular Information Sheet available at http://travel.state.gov.

Surrounded by the perks of power, at peace with the world, the president-elect was regaling old acquaintances with tall tales about his early days as a politician. One of the visitors interrupted this monologne and remarked that it was a shame that the vexatious slavery matter would be the first question of public policy the new president would have to deal with in Washington. The president-elect's eyes twinkled and he said he was reminded of a story. According to eyewitness Henry Villard, President-elect Abraham Lincoln told the story of the Kentucky Justice of the Peace whose first case was a criminal prosecution for the abuse of slaves. Unable to find any precedent, he exclaimed angrily: `I will be damned if I don´t feel almost sorry for being elected when the niggers is the first thing I have to attend to.´ This story, shocking as it may sound to Lincoln admirers, was in character. For the president-elect had never shown any sincere sympathy for Blacks, and none of his cronies was surprised to hear him suggest that he shared the viewpoint of the reluctant and biased justice of the peace. As for the N-word, everybody knew that old Abe used it all the time, both in public and in private. (Since Lincoln supporters are in a state of constant denial, I have not used elision in reporting his use of the offensive word n--r.) In one of the supreme ironies of history, the man who told this story was forced by circumstances to attend to what he called the nigger question. And within five years he was enshrined in American mythology as the great emancipator who freed Blacks with a stroke of the pen out of the goodness of his heart. Since that time, the mythology of the great emancipator has become a part of the mental landscape of America. Generations of schoolchildren have memorized its cadences. Poets, politicians, and long-suffering Blacks have wept over its imagery and drama. No other American story is so enduring. No other American story is so comforting. No other American story is so false. Abraham Lincoln was not the great emancipator. The testimony of sixteen thousand books and monographs to the contrary notwithstanding, Lincoln did not emancipate the slaves, greatly or otherwise. As for the Emancipation Proclamation, it was not a real emancipation proclamation at all, and did not liberate African-American slaves. John F. Hume, the Missouri antislavery leader who heard Lincoln speak in Alton and who looked him in the eye in the White House, said the Proclamation did not ... whatever it may have otherwise accomplished at the time it was issued, liberate a single slave. Sources favorable to Lincoln were even more emphatic. Lincoln crony Henry Clay Whitney said the Proclamation was a mirage and that Lincoln knew it was a mirage. Secretary of State William Henry Seward, the No. 2 man in the administration, said the Proclamation was an illusion in which we show our sympathy with the slaves by emancipating the slaves where we cannot reach them and holding them in bondage where we can set them free. continued ...

[CTRL] Anchor Babies
-Caveat Lector- By Allan Wall FrontPage Magazine.com | April 30, 2001 URL: http://www.frontpagemag.com/guestcolumnists/wall04-30-01.htm I AM AN AMERICAN CITIZEN who lives and works (legally) in Mexico. On July 8th, 1999, my son David was born here in Mexico (and is doing fine, thank you). Although he was born in Mexico, my son is a natural-born American citizen, and has an American birth certificate to prove it. That birth certificate is just as valid as if he had been born in the U.S.A. In order to obtain that birth certificate for David, I had to take the little baby 370 miles to the U.S. consulate in Monterrey, Mexico. I had to turn in a lot of paperwork to process the application. I had to provide documentation to prove that I myself was an American citizen who had lived in the U.S. for at least 5 years. I had to pay for copies of documents and for official photographs. And the burden of proof was on me to prove that I was an American. I share this not to complain. I understand that my situation is special , and that I have to play by the rules. (And the consulate service was excellent.) What bothers me is that while I have to play by the rules, another class of people does not have to play by the rules. These people do not have to prove they are American citizens - in fact, they are not. They do not have to prove they lived in the U.S. for at least 5 years. They do not have to pay for any paperwork to be processed. In short, this class of people is granted a number of privileges that I, an American citizen, am not entitled to. To what privileged class of people do I refer? I refer to the illegal aliens in the U.S.A.. An illegal alien can cross the border, have a baby five minutes later, and that baby is automatically declared a citizen of the U.S.A. Automatically! The illegal aliens don't have to go through any of the things that I did. They are exempt from all that. They are, in fact, rewarded for disobeying U.S. law by having their children granted automatic citizenship. In addition, the happy family is entitled to welfare benefits. And, illegal alien parents who have children born in the U.S. are seldom deported . That's why their children are called anchor babies - they anchor their families securely in the U.S.A. You might ask me, Well, why didn't you arrange to have your baby be born in the U.S.A.? I certainly would have preferred that , but it's not so easy. You see, in my present situation, living and working in Mexico, I couldn't afford it, and I don't have U.S. medical insurance. The illegal aliens, like myself, can't afford it either and don't have medical insurance either. But not to worry - my government pays for them, and their children are automatically declared citizens. A lowly American citizen such as myself, however, is not entitled to the taxpayer-supported privileges of the illegal aliens. How big is the anchor baby phenomenon? It has been estimated that about 165,000 anchor babies are born (and automatically granted citizenship) each year. It might actually be higher. The exact figure is uncertain because all hospitals and physicians receiving federal funds are forbidden from inquiring as their patients' legal status. In other words, the U.S. taxpayer is financing medical care for illegal aliens, and those providing such care can't even ask if patients are legal or not! The state of California has a particularly liberal program to reward illegal aliens which includes free pre-natal care and delivery, and it's no surprise that 60% of babies born in LA community hospitals are born to illegals. In 1994, a majority of California who went to the polls voted to end such nonsense. But the will of the people was placed under a judge's restraining order until a later state government, at the behest of the president of Mexico struck it down. So the gravy train rolls on! Of course the birth of an anchor baby is only the beginning. As the child grows he or she is entitled to a multitude of other taxpayer-funded programs. Since most anchor babies are classified as minorities, they can expect to enjoy legal preference over non-Hispanic white males under today's civil rights regime. Upon reaching adulthood, the citizen anchor baby is eligible to import relatives from the home country through America's nepotistic chain migration system , in which the principal qualification for a prespective legal immigrant is having relatives already in the U.S. When you look at the vast cornucopia of benefits, you have to conclude that the U.S.A. offers powerful incentives for illegal immigration. For those who disobey U.S. law and their children, America is certainly the land of opportunity! Why does the U.S. have such an insane policy? Most countries of the world do not! The United Kingdom and Australia formerly had similar policies, but changed them when they were subject to the same abuses which the U.S.A. still endures. Present U.S. anchor baby policy is an abuse of the 14th Amendment. This
[CTRL] Tower of Babel
-Caveat Lector- Oakland begins building the tower of Babel -- © 2001 WorldNetDaily.com The city that gave us Ebonics just established language quotas for municipal employment. Last week, Oakland's city council voted unanimously to require certain departments to fill vacancies with workers who are bilingual in either Spanish or Chinese until there's one such employee for every 10,000 residents who speak these tongues. (Thanks to porous borders, 35 percent of Oakland residents now are foreign-born.) San Francisco is expected to embrace the same language-coddling later this month. At the council meeting, resident Carol Kolenda was jeered for stating the obvious, when she told immigrants, It's your choice to learn the language or not learn the language. Also last week, the Supreme Court issued its ruling in Alexander vs. Sandoval, a challenge to Alabama's official English law. Prior to its approval by an 85 percent vote in 1990, Alabama gave drivers' tests in 15 languages, including Farsi. After the amendment passed, the test could only be taken in English. Though she'd lived in America 17 years, Martha Sandoval never bothered to learn our language well enough to take an exam written in English. On the theory that her adopted country should adapt to her, Sandoval decided this was discriminatory. So did the 11th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, which held the law violated the 1964 Civil Rights Act. By a 5-to-4 majority, the Supreme Court reversed that ruling, holding a citizen can't sue a state under the act unless authorized by Congress. It declined to rule on the constitutionality of official English, a stand against language fragmentation taken by 24 states to date. Jim Boulet of English First called the decision a chilling reminder of the slender threads upon which hang the last shreds of our nation's linguistic unity. Bill Clinton left that fabric in tatters. The lower court ruling in Sandoval was the excuse for Executive Order 13166, issued in July 2000, mandating that all federally funded entities, in areas with large immigrant populations, provide for bilingual communication in public contact positions. Washington has been busy passing guidelines to implement the order. The Department of Justice now requires competent interpreter services at all security checkpoints, and reception and information desks -- at an undetermined cost to America's English-speaking taxpayers. Congress could have the last word here. H.R. 969, with 50 cosponsors in the House, seeks to repeal Clinton's order. Given sufficient public involvement, the bill has a fair chance of passing. Bush could repeal 13166 without congressional involvement, if the White House didn't fear alienating alien lobbies. At the Oakland council meeting, non-English speakers were compared to the handicapped. If we provide special assistance for the physically disabled, why not the language-impaired as well? -- it was argued. But those who don't learn English have chosen their disability. The ACLU, which represented Sandoval, compared Alabama's English-only policy (for official business) to its whites-only policy of the 1960s -- a cunning but flawed analogy. Race is an innate characteristic. People aren't born in a language straitjacket. It is an organizing principle of liberalism that America not only has a moral obligation to take in an unlimited number of immigrants, but the latter have an absolute right to the delivery of tax-funded services in the language of their choice. This diversity dogma could soon result in a national crisis. Today, 10 percent of our nation is foreign-born. The Census Bureau projects that over the next half-century, two-thirds of all population growth will be due to future immigrants and their descendants. If newcomers can't talk to us and those from other lands, what will become of our nation? How can we reason together if we can't communicate with each other? Will Americans of the future have to take a 15-language electronic translator to the supermarket? Will high-school classrooms resemble sessions of the General Assembly, with simultaneous translation over headsets? How can immigrants identify with America if they can't read Lincoln's words in the language in which they were spoken? Will we devolve from e pluribus unum (out of many, one) to a multicultural boarding house, whose fractious tenants babble at each other incomprehensively in a welter of tongues? -- http://wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=649 Don Feder is a columnist for the Boston Herald and the author of Who is afraid of the Religious Right?

[CTRL] Power Puff Girls
-Caveat Lector- conservativeinfo - Subscribe to the Conservative Information email list at http://conservativeinfo.listbot.com Bushâs âPower Puff Girlsâ The new team boasts a record number of top female aides By Martha Brant NEWSWEEK May 7 issue â Ari Fleischer needed answers, and he knew where to go. Early this spring, when the Bush administration quietly closed the Office for Womenâs Initiatives and Outreach, the White House press secretary was swamped with questions from reporters. Was the new president signaling a retreat on womenâs issues? âWhatâs our answer?â Fleischer asked at the daily 7:30 a.m. senior-staff meeting. His boss, presidential counselor Karen Hughes, looked around the Roosevelt Room, where Bushâs 18 top staffers had gathered. Eight of them were women. She let out a laugh. âIn this White House, the womenâs office is the senior-staff meeting!â ITâS A PRETTY GOOD comeback. Though mainstream womenâs groups have long opposed George W. Bush for his positions on issues like abortion and gun control, they have to give him credit for this: he has appointed more women to positions of power and influence than any president in history. The steely Hughes, arguably the most influential White House aide of either gender, is Bushâs alter ego, so in tune with his thinking that they sometimes make the same edits on speeches independently. Condoleezza Rice is the first woman ever to serve as national-security adviser. Rice spoke with Bush each morning at 5:30 to discuss overnight developments during the recent standoff with China. Bush appointed Harriet Miers, his personal lawyer, as his staff secretaryâthe gatekeeper who controls every piece of paper Bush sees or signs. Domestic-policy adviser Margaret LaMontagne is Bushâs eyes and ears on education, the issue at the top of the presidentâs agenda. Mary Matalin, adviser to Vice President Dick Cheney, has referred to the women of the White House collectively as âthe Power Puff Girls.â And that cadre doesnât even include the cabinet, which features women at the helm of the EPA, Labor, Agriculture and Interior. Friends joke that Bush wound up surrounding himself with tough, straight-talking women who are a lot like his mother, Barbaraânicknamed âthe Enforcerâ by Bush for her tart tongue. Bush says as much himself. âPart of the reason why I feel I value the advice of very strong-willed and strong-minded women is because of my mom,â he told NEWSWEEK. âMy wife is a very strong-willed, strong-minded woman. And neither of those two are afraid to tell me what for or what to do.â Conservatives complain that Bushâan affirmative-action opponentâis enforcing a stealth âquota systemâ for women. White House officials deny there is any affirmative-action plan for women, but they acknowledge that Bush passed down an informal diversity policy that women should fill about 30 percent of administration jobs. At the same time, womenâs groups complain that Republican women are benefiting from decades of feminist activism. âWe knew if we kicked the doors open, conservative women would walk through,â says Patricia Ireland of NOW. You can measure the influence of women in Bushâs White House just by the way the place clears out at dinnertime. Those are fighting words. Few things irritate Bushâs female aides more than the suggestion that they got ahead because theyâre women. âThatâs ludicrous! It doesnât make a difference that weâre womenânor do we want to be treated differently,â says Margaret Tutwiler, Bushâs communications director. No wonder Hughes and other female aides had no problem closing the womenâs office. âTax cuts, education, Social Security: those are womenâs issues,â says Lezlee Westine, who heads the Office of Public Liaison. Even so, the number of women working in the White House has led to one noticeable change: staffers are going home at night. Though Bill Clinton preached about a family-friendly administration, even young parents often wound up staying late into the night waiting on the undisciplined president. Bush put an end to that. âDonât run off my mothers!â he ordered his chief of staff, Andy Card, when word got back to him that some women staffers with kids were worried about inflexible hours. Instead, they take mobile-phone calls at home after normal business hours. You can measure the influence of women in Bushâs White House just by the way the place clears out at dinnertime. __ To unsubscribe, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] A HREF=http://www.ctrl.org/;www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

It's bad enough that American politicians are trying to tax your cigarettes, and regulate or prohibit your right to smoke, said Steve Dasbach, the party's national director. But now, instead of having to fight local and state battles over smoking, Americans need to be concerned about politicians from France, Zimbabwe, and Brazil who want the power to decide whether you will be allowed to smoke. This week, representatives from 190 governments are meeting in Geneva, Switzerland to negotiate the terms of the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) -- a multi-national treaty designed to battle what they call the devastating effects of tobacco around the world. Cigarette smoking is such a global problem, say U.N. bureaucrats, that it calls for a coordinated international response. The conference, sponsored by the U.N.'s World Heath Organization, is expected to result in a treaty that will call for: * Dramatic increases in cigarette taxes to discourage smoking, and an agreement to make cigarette prices the same everywhere in the world. * Severe restrictions on cigarette advertising. * A ban on tobacco companies' sponsorship of sporting events. * Some undefined action, such as multibillion-dollar lawsuits, to hold cigarette companies responsible for tobacco-related health problems. The World Health Organization says it wants the FCTC ratified by U.N. member nations and in effect by 2003. But the Libertarian Party says that American adults have the right to decide whether they will smoke -- without U.N. bureaucrats trying to make that decision for them. Smoking is a personal choice, not an international crisis, said Dasbach. Adult Americans should have the right to engage in behavior that hurts no one but themselves, as long as they are willing to take responsibility for the health consequences. We don't need United Nations politicians trying to lecture us about the dangers of smoking. And, more importantly, we don't want United Nations politicians trying to raise cigarette taxes, attack the First Amendment with advertising bans, or encourage nuisance lawsuits against legitimate, legal businesses, he said. In fact, the only international crisis here is the eagerness of politicians from 190 nations to try to run our lives. The Framework Convention on Tobacco Control treaty is ironic, said Dasbach, given that the original intent of the United Nations was to help nations prevent war. It's a classic case of mission creep, he said. U.N. bureaucrats apparently don't have enough real wars to keep them busy, so they have started declaring war on behavior they don't like. With this proposed international treaty, we've met the New World Order -- and it's a global nanny state with a 'No Smoking' sign in its hand. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBOvG3yNCSe1KnQG7RAQG7gwQAgULEyZGrrYFX/g3sm31t0TG1MuN8X80t 1PrbEA8XVq+TLl+ihK4x61cqql8RkHseiObm/kTdk7i1dhW2DL1vAP1JVjm5TkHu U05UdppAWuUJ73sXjo4owoUsYeT9v0k7F2nQ16q6DZI9lfA5ZT19TQHhPEh1zZGJ p4Y1jY8EzVY= =BfPH -END PGP SIGNATURE- --- The Libertarian Partyhttp://www.lp.org/ 2600 Virginia Ave. NW, Suite 100voice: 202-333-0008 Washington DC 20037 fax: 202-333-0072 --- For subscription changes, please use the WWW form at: http://www.lp.org/action/email.html Alternatively, you may also send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with just the word subscribe or unsubscribe in the subject line. --- End of forwarded message --- -- Best wishes When robbery becomes the purpose of the law, and the policeman's duty becomes, not the protection, but the plunder of property -- then it is an outlaw who has to become a policeman. --

http:Please send as far and wide as possible. Thanks, Robert Sterling Editor, The Konformist http://www.konformist.com http://www.konformist.com/botm/volume04/boty2001.htm Beast of the Year 2001 The George W. Bush Votescam 2000, Election Swindlers The votes are in, and The Konformist readers have spoken. The George W. Bush Votescam 2000 is your choice for the 2001 Beast of the Year - a choice that is well deserved. It seems that in terms of Beastliness, we are on a new Information Age low with Shrub. The man is an incredible combination of stupidity and pure evil: in a strange way, his stupidity has helped him, by masking what a malignant cynic he is. Give him this much: as stupid as he is, he is at least smart enough to know to serve his masters, and so far he has done that very well, at the expense of everyone else. The policies of president Bush have barely been implemented, and already the writing is on the wall. After merely 100 days of Sodomization by the Bush mob, it is clear - whether by economic policy, energy policy, environmental policy or law and order - that we are screwed. The fact that this sorry excuse for a man has no business posing as president makes his destructive policies even more appalling. Make no bones about it, the Beast known as Shrub is going to be causing damage even past the four years he and his cohorts in crime will thieve any pathetic crumbs of democratic rule we have left. Still, Shrub couldn't have pulled this whole damn thing off alone: he's nowhere near as smart to do that. That's why the winner here is a group award: it goes not merely to Dubya, but all the president's kreeps who helped install the swindle. Which leads us to the worst participants in the Bush swindle: the American public, who pathetically bowed in cowardice in the face of fraud. It shouldn't be surprising that so far, Shrub and his gang of swine have consistently pushed such a destructive agenda. Authority only tries what it can get away with. When the American public announced with its own spineless apathy that they really didn't care if their government was stolen in a coup d'etat, it was an invitation for us to be shafted. Needless to say, Bush and co. have take full advantage of this invitation, and likely will continue to for years to come. Runner-Up: Ariel Sharon In the unlikely event that Shrub and co. can no longer fill their duties as Beast of the Year (such as doing something shockingly decent), Ariel Sharon is ready to take over the crown. Rest assured the BOTY trophy is in good hands either way, as Sharon has been the prime manipulator and provocateur in tensions surrounding the Middle East, tensions which could explode into a World War to end all World Wars. The rage surrounding Sharon in the Arab world is well deserved and easy to understand: having earned the nickname The Butcher of Beirut for his thuggery, Sharon would be labeled a terrorist is he came from any other Middle Eastern nation. Despite (or perhaps because of) his actions, Sharon has been awarded the office of Prime Minister, proving that Israeli public is as easily manipulated as the American public is. The Bronze: Jacques Nasser If, on the unlikely event that both the Shrub thieves and Sharon can't perform their Beastly duties, we always have Jacques Nasser to fall back on. Rest assured Nasser will continue to do all he can to earn his Beastly honors. In any case, we salute you all, Shrub Swindlers, Sharon, and Jacques. Congratulations, and keep up the great work!!!

To view this item online, visit http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?22676 Thursday, May 3, 2001 THE POWER TO DESTROY Gun-wielding agents raid tax activist's home Officers on 'fishing expedition' also take items from business location By Ed Oliver © 2001 WorldNetDaily.com Armed revenue agents from the California Franchise Tax Board, with support from local police, raided the home and business of a high-profile tax-resistance activist yesterday morning. They are here on a fishing expedition, business owner George Nick Jesson told WorldNetDaily on his cell phone from outside his offices at N.T.D. Electronics in Huntington Beach, Calif. Inside, agents were breaking into file cabinets, removing hard drives and boxing up the company's books and records. Jesson is one of several employers who have directly challenged the IRS and state revenue departments by publicly declaring that they will no longer withhold taxes from their employees and will no longer pay taxes because they say the law does not require them to do so. The employer tax revolt gained national attention this year with the help of several full-page ads in USA Today -- including one in March featuring an open letter from Jesson to IRS Commissioner Charles Rossotti. The lett er referred to a February New York Times article in which reporter David Cay Johnston pointed to Jesson and other employers by name in the context of reporting that the IRS was planning to prosecute some business owners for tax evasion and other crimes. Also in the letter, Jesson requested a face-to-face meeting with Rossotti or a delegate in order to clear up any misunderstandings about the tax law and regulations that the employers say they are acting on. Jesson told WorldNetDaily that the raid occurred while he was driving his two boys to school about 8:45 a.m. yesterday morning. His wife Trina was already at the office. At that time, approximately 10 state tax agents wen t to his home in nearby Fountain Valley and demanded the nanny let them in. The nanny did not open the door for the agents, but asked them for a warrant. She said the tax agents then kicked the door in, terrifying her and her 3-year-old boy. Agents then proceeded to search the house without showi ng her a warrant, said Jesson. Meanwhile, a second team of armed tax agents stormed the offices and warehouse of N.T.D. Electronics. Trina Jesson said she was sitting at her desk when three agents burst in and held guns to her head. She said they told her to get away from the desk, cooperate and she wouldn't get hurt. Revenue agents also rounded up warehouse employees at gunpoint, according to Jesson. Everybody was escorted out of the building. After Nick Jesson arrived, he said he was informed verbally that agents were there because he did not pay his taxes. They presented him with a search warrant. A partial copy of the search warrant faxed by Jessson to WND r efers on the front page to a possible felony. Two pages were missing from the warrant, said Jesson, who claimed that is how he received it, and he assumes those pages describe probable cause. Jesson said he asked Senior Special Agent Edward Wilson what the felony charge was, but that Wilson couldn't tell him. I called the district attorney handling the case. I asked him, 'What is the felony charge?' He couldn't tell me, said Jesson. Jesson said he asked the agents to leave after he noticed the warrant was incorrectly dated with the year 2000. The agents refused to leave, he said, but later told him that they called the judge who said he made a mistak e and would correct the date. According to Jesson, a corrected warrant was never delivered. Describing the armed raid, Deputy District Attorney William Overtoom told WND: There are no charges. Nobody was arrested. Basically, this is an investigation into possible violations of California criminal law. The searc h warrant was to get hold of records and other evidence as part of that investigation. Overtoom said he could not discuss what prompted the investigation. When asked what was on the two missing pages of the search warrant faxed by Jesson, Overtoom said there were actually four search warrants served yesterd ay at different California locations of properties belonging to Jesson. Those pages he's not talking about are descriptions of items and property to be seized at other locations, said Overtoom. I don't know what he's talking about. Overtoom added that he could not fax copies of the warrants for another two weeks by law because the searches are still ongoing. The search warrant is saying that the judge made a finding that, based upon the affidavit that is not available for public viewing yet, there is probable cause to believe that there are at specific locations certain item s which tend to show that a
[CTRL] How it's done: Elites and Power: Full version.
-Caveat Lector- Understanding the New World Order By Joshua2 Elites Power: OLIGARCHY -- The discovery that in all large scale societies the decisions at any given time are typically in the hands of a small number of people, confirms a basic fact: Government is always government by the few, whether in the name of the few, the one, or the many. ( The Comparative Study of Elites - by H. Lasswell and D. Lerner ) ALEXANDER HAMILTON -- All communities divide themselves into the few and the many. The first are the rich and well-born,the other the masses of people.The voice of the people has been said to be the voice of god; and however generally this maxim has been quoted and believed, it is not true in fact. The people are turbulent and changing, they seldom judge or determine right. POWER -- In general, we understand by power the chance ( ability to enact ) of a number of men to realize their own will in a communal act even against the resistance of others who are participating in the action. -- Max Webber Simply put, power is the ability of people in certain positions or roles, or of certain social status to make decisions which direct the behavior of others. There is also power inherent in physical size, or willingness to threaten the use of deadly force. But we are not concerned with these aspects of personal power in this study of social power. Powerful persons are not powerful because they possess remarkable qualities or skills, like intelligence, beauty, ambition, willingness to have sex, or being somehow related to a powerful individual. All these things are certainly helpful, but it is the attainment of the position ( of power )itself that gives an individual control over others. INSTITUTIONS -- instiòtuétion n. 1. an organization devoted to the promotion of a cause or program, esp. one of a public character. 2. the building occupied by such an organization. 3. a place for the care or confinement of people, as mental patients. 4. any established law, custom, etc. 5. any familiar person, thing, or practice.ù instiòtuétionòal, adj. No one can be truly powerful unless he has access to the command of major institutions, for it is over these institutional means of power that the truly powerful are, in the first instance, powerful. -- C. Wright Mills, author of The Power Elite . If we took the one hundred most powerful men in America, the one hundred wealthiest, and the one hundred most celebrated away from the institutional positions they now occupy, away from their resources of men and women and money, away from the media of mass communication... then they would be powerless and poor and uncelebrated. For power is not of a man. Wealth does not center in the person of the wealthy. Celebrity is not inherent in any personality. To be celebrated, to be wealthy , to have power, requires access to major institutions, for the institutional positions men occupy determine in large part their chances to have and to hold these valued experiences. C. Wright Mills While Mills keeps referring to men, this also applies to women operating in the world of power and institutions. Though it is clear that power is in the realm of the masculine mystique. An institution could be viewed as a large powerful machine. Using that analogy, the head of an institution takes on the powers and abilities inherent to that machine. For example; a human can't lift and transport 40 tons of material at 65 miles per hour. But a truck driver can. A President, King, Dictator or General can subdue or kill a nation. A Federal Reserve chairman can decide the value of your money. A boss can decide whether not you will earn a living. A manager can tell you how to expend your life energy. Etc. SOME TOP POSITIONS IN AMERICA'S INSTITUTIONAL STRUCTURE -- 1) Banking, (The Federal Reserve,) investments, and insurance ( Wall Street ). 2) The national government. (The Federal Reserve.) 3) State government. 4) The Supreme Court ( 90% from upper class ). 5) The military. 6) Corporations. 7) The privately owned media. 8) Private institutions of higher learning ( Ivy League ). 9) Private foundations. 10) New York and Washington law firms. 11) Private Civil groups like : The Council on Foreign Relations, pro business think tanks like the American Enterprise Institute, the Brookings Institution.

The sudden spate of hysterical attacks on President Bush's Secretary of State Colin Powell, from the London Telegraph and KKKatharine Graham's Washington Post's concert of orchestration of press inside the U.S.A., only echoes the murderous, "bi-polar" quality of hysteria, which both madmen have bestirred among Bush's and Sharon's versions of a "Goebbels" press following. That is to emphasize, that each, and both combined as one, is a clinical model, like Adolf Hitler's Nazi regime, is an expression of the Nietzschean existentialist principle of "the triumph of the (arbitrary) will." Having adopted a course of action, they, together with that collection of wild-eyed gnostic cults which form the hard core of the Bush Presidency's social base, will pursue that as what they, like a secret meeting of mafia bosses, or the Washington Post crowd, may call a "done deal." It will be a "deal" done in a way which is in willful disregard for the consequences of their actions, either for the welfare of the U.S. economy and our citizens, or the peace of the world. The loonier their decision is, the more likely it will be made, and the more hysterically they will push it through against any and all reason, unless you act to prevent this. Under President Bush, things will never become better, until they first become much worse. The financial and economic policies of both that self-discredited desperado, Federal Reserve Chairman Alan "Ayn Rand" Greenspan, and of the inner circles of President Bush, typify a common, again Nietzschean, quality of disregard for what should be the obvious short-term economic, social, and political consequences of their desperately enforced, lunatic decisions. The lunatic degree of idiocy shown by panic-stricken Greenspan's latest drop in the interest-rate, is an example of what the financial speculators' sheer terror will cause them, like the legendary lemmings, to do. However, neither of that particular pair of Nietzschean "conservative revolutionaries," the infinitely greedy President George W. Bush, nor Sharon, are, in any sense of the term, self- made men, financially or otherwise. They are merely the carriers of a disease, like mad-cow disease, which they did not invent, the spread of that mass-murderous quality of insanity which their current behavior expresses. If we wish to halt the deadly pandemic they are spreading, we must locate the exact source of the mass-murderous insanity presented by the relevant symptoms, for their case, as for the cases of Thatcher Britain's launching of policies leading into the spread of BSE. To give that sickness an historically, precisely accurate name, recognize it as "The Jeremy Bentham Syndrome," as the "Open Conspiracy" madmen, the Benthamite pair of H.G. Wells and Bertrand Russell, typify the very worst of the numerous evils which the past century has bequeathed to the present one. That connection, "The Bentham Syndrome," is not only an accurate description, is not only the most precise historical vantage-point for understanding the Bush-Sharon phenomenon; it is indispensable for a clear conception of the roots of the problem threatening humanity as a whole at this moment. - Bentham, Wells and Russell - The general, pathological phenomenon of which the current Bush Presidency is, historically, but one recent expression, is the determination of what had been, since the days of the medieval alliance of the imperial maritime power of Venice with the landed Plantagenet pestilence, a Venice-centered opposition to the struggle to bring forth the modern sovereign nation-state, as the alternative to both the model of the Roman empire and ultramontane forms of feudal order in western Europe. The relevance, and the practical efficiency of this historical connection, is usually beyond the comprehension of those relatively historically illiterate persons who are typified by the majority among recent generations' graduates from our universities. Nonetheless, diseases unseen to the illiterate's eye may nonetheless kill the unwitting, diseases whose existence they may hysterically deny. So, today, what people stubbornly refuse to know, is, most often, that which will hurt them the most. No political figure, or thoughtful citizen of the U.S. today, would be so foolishly reckless as to proceed politically without improving his or her education on precisely the following leading points respecting the realities of modern European history in general.

[CTRL] Screw Yahoo
http://www.sfbg.com/SFLife/tech/57.html Yahoo!'s secret war by annalee newitz THERE HAS BEEN sensational gossip in the Web world ever since Yahoo!'s mid-April announcement that it would be expanding its "adult" (i.e., sex-related) content. Two days after this business decision, Yahoo! freaked: suddenly, in a move that made the already unstable company look like its biz development department was run by monkeys, Yahoo! announced that it would be completely removing all "adult and erotica" vendors from its Shopping and Classified networks, as well as its banner ads. Yahoo! offered few concrete reasons for its surprising about-face, other than to note that they were responding to "user concerns." InternetNews noted that the conservative Capitol Resource Institute in Sacramento had called on consumers to boycott Yahoo!, but it seems unlikely that this threat, or "concerned user" e-mail, was responsible for Yahoo!'s sudden, extensive business reorganization. Probably we'll never know exactly what Yahoo!'s inscrutable reasons were for shutting down its adult shops (thus taking a bite out of the ass of my former employer, Webpower.com – sorry, Al!). What we can be sure of is that Yahoo! has begun waging a secret and weirdly disorganized war on those of its loyal users who are part of the adult-related Clubs and Groups networks. Although the company has made no public announcements about removing adult content in the user-run community areas known as Clubs and Groups, it has begun to shut down adult clubs (some of which have thousands of subscribers) without notice, making it virtually impossible for users to find valuable information on sexual health and alternative relationships. Perhaps more importantly, Yahoo! is cutting off a community support lifeline for many people whose sexual lifestyles may lead to their isolation and loneliness if they live in areas without an urban center. Several owners of gay adult groups have posted their protests at gayshavedmen.com/yahoo.htm . One Yahoo! adult club moderator, who asked to remain anonymous, recently sent an e-mail to her club membership telling them that she feels she's been forced to remove members from her community whose Yahoo! "user profiles" are largely sexual in nature. She feels she's had to do this just to protect the existence of her club, which is a discussion space for nontraditional relationship issues. Yahoo! has announced publicly that it is "evaluating adult content across the network," but there is a difference between evaluation and censorship. Shutting down community groups without notice or due process is censorship at its worst: it destroys communities which may have taken years to evolve, purely on the basis of what its members are writing to each other about. I'm the first to admit that some of these groups are little more than public places to trade porn pictures. But so what? If Yahoo! is so concerned about "user response," why are they treating these users like crap? How hard is it for Yahoo! to send out a polite e-mail notifying clubs or groups that they will be shut down? With forewarning, group moderators at least have the time to notify their members and find another service to carry their community. From a censorship perspective, it's perhaps even creepier that Yahoo! has also removed the category "adult" from its clubs index (it's been replaced by the incomplete and watered-down Sex Romance category). This change means that even the adult clubs which haven't been deleted – erm, I mean "evaluated" – will be hidden from view, known only to their already existing members. When I spoke to Yahoo! spokesperson Jackson Holtz, he claimed that Yahoo! hadn't shut down any groups. He added that the adult index in Clubs was "down for maintenance," but that it would be back up when the maintenance was finished. Um, hello? Web sites aren't like buildings – you don't have to shut them down to "maintain" them. You can make site changes on a thing called a "computer" while the site is still live, then upload the changes to the site. Either Yahoo! has hired people who understand nothing about their company's technology to represent them, or there's something a wee bit fishy going on here. Holtz also confirmed that Yahoo! has "not communicated directly with users" about its evaluation policies. When I asked him who was evaluating the adult clubs and groups, or when they would be finished evaluating, he refused to speculate. Needless to say, word of Yahoo!'s "evaluation" methods has spread like wildfire across the adult Clubs and Groups networks. Many sex-related groups, like the club moderator I mentioned earlier, are changing their club memberships or preemptively moving their memberships to MSN's Communities network (smooth move, Yahoo!, sending your customers over to Microsoft). A Microsoft spokesperson told me that the company has no plans to crack down on adult communities as
[CTRL] Ted Olson's Inconsistancies
http://www.salon.com/politics/feature/2001/05/03/olson/index.html Olson's inconsistencies After further questioning, Bush's solicitor general-designate now admits he knew more about the anti-Clinton "Arkansas Project" than previously stated. - - - - - - - - - - - - By Jake Tapper May 3, 2001 | WASHINGTON -- The Senate Judiciary Committee is scheduled to vote Thursday on the nominations of Ted Olson as solicitor general and Larry Thompson as deputy attorney general -- nominations that Democrats on the committee have threatened to block until the Bush administration addresses their concerns about the judicial nomination process. But at least for the ranking Democrat on the committee, Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont, there is another serious issue as well: the forthrightness Olson has or hasn't displayed concerning the role he played in a privately funded investigation into the lives of Bill and Hillary Clinton. Known as the Arkansas Project, and funded with around $2 million from conservative billionaire Richard Mellon Scaife, the investigation was run from late 1993 to 1998 through two educational nonprofit organizations under the aegis of the American Spectator magazine. The nonprofits were, by law, not supposed to participate in partisan political work. According to a copy of Olson's responses to follow-up questions by the committee, obtained by Salon, Olson now admits to being involved with the Arkansas Project a year earlier than he had previously said. He also now admits, though vaguely, to a greater involvement in the project than he has previously stated. But Leahy is apparently less concerned about what Olson did than how honest he was about it when testifying before the Judiciary Committee. According to a Leahy aide, the senator "is concerned about the lack of specificity in the first round" of questions the Vermont Democrat asked near the end of Olson's confirmation hearing on April 5. Olson dismissed many allegations about his involvement in the project, occasionally speaking in a way one could charitably describe as not quite adhering to the same spirit of full disclosure that Olson once demanded of President Clinton. So Leahy subsequently submitted follow-up questions to Olson, which the nominee answered. As of Wednesday afternoon, Leahy was "looking at the follow-up answers to see if they're sufficiently substantive," according to the Leahy aide. The White House would not comment on the matter, as it has "a policy not to discuss nominees before the confirmation process has completed," according to spokesman Jimmy Orr. At the April 5 hearing, Leahy's questions were direct. "Were you involved in the so-called Arkansas Project at any time?" Leahy asked. "Only as a member of the board of directors of the American Spectator," Olson responded. "It has been alleged that I was somehow involved in that so-called project; I was not involved in the project, in its origin or its management." Olson downplayed any involvement other than to have voted in 1998, as a member of the Spectator executive board, to end the investigations and refocus the magazine's energies on profits. "I was on the board of the American Spectator later on when the allegations about the project were simply that it did exist," Olson testified, but he insisted he had nothing to do with its inception. He didn't even know anything about it until 1998, he said, after he became a member of the Spectator's board of directors and voted to shut down the project. Leahy continued. "There were no meetings of the Arkansas Project in your office or --" "No, there were none," Olson interrupted. But this testimony stands in stark contrast to "The Hunting of the President," by Gene Lyons and Salon columnist Joe Conason, which claims that Olson's involvement was likely far greater than that. A 1995 audit of the Arkansas Project's books showed that the American Spectator nonprofit funding the Arkansas Project paid more than $14,000 to Olson's law firm of Gibson Dunn Crutcher, from March until August of 1994. Interestingly, the first payment came just a few weeks after the Spectator published, in February 1994, a scathing hit piece against both Bill and Hillary Clinton called "Criminal Laws Implicated by the Clinton Scandals: A Partial List." The authors of the piece were the Spectator's pseudonymous legal team -- "Solitary, Poor, Nasty, Brutish Short," a reference to Thomas Hobbes' description of the life of man -- but Olson, as he has conceded, was one of its two coauthors. And, also interestingly, Olson's answers to Leahy's follow-up questions contrast with his April 5 testimony. Olson remains, according to Senate Judiciary staffers, all but assured of confirmation both in committee and on the floor of the Senate. But his evolving responses are illuminating. Olson states that he was counsel for the American Spectator "from time to time beginning in 1994," around when the Arkansas Project was born. Asked by Leahy for billing
[CTRL] Shocked Over Kerry? It's How We Fought The War.
http://www.counterpunch.org/ Shocked Over Kerrey? It's How We Fought the War Here's one of the many unsettling things about Bob Kerrey, and it doesn't even address the issue of what exactly he did in the Vietnamese village of Thanh Phong. Supposedly riddled with indecision whether to accept the Medal of Honor for a military action subsequent to the one now under dispute, he finally did so on May 14, 1970, just 10 days after after the Ohio National Guard killed four anti-war student protesters at Kent State. In other words, at a moment of maximal national revulsion against the Vietnam War, former Sen. Kerrey went along with the Pentagon's urgent desire for heroes and presented his chest to President Richard M. Nixon, who pinned the medal to it. So much for "ambiguity," one of the words used now to salvage his reputation. And now, and only now, is he considering whether to give back the Bronze Star awarded him for the 1969 mission in which (if you believe, as we do, his fellow SEAL Gerhard Klann) he assisted in the throat-slitting of an elderly Vietnamese peasant and ordered the killing of 13 women and babies, or (if you believe him) less wittingly supervised the slaughter of an old man and 13 or more women and children. It's pretty clear that Kerrey's raid was part of the CIA's Phoenix program (as was My Lai, where "Task Force Barker" killed 504 men, women and children the preceding year). The intent of Phoenix was terror, precisely the killing of not only suspected Viet Cong, but also their families. The late William Colby, the CIA man who ran the program, told Congress that between 1967-1971, 20,587 Vietnamese "activists" were killed under the Phoenix program. The South Vietnamese declared that 41,000 had been killed. Other estimates go as high as 70,000. Barton Osborn, an intelligence officer in the Phoenix program, spelled out in a congressional hearing the prevailing bureaucratic attitude of the agents toward their campaign of terror: "Quite often it was a matter of expediency just to eliminate a person in the field rather than deal with the paperwork." And who was classified as a "VC sympathizer" and, therefore, fair game to be slaughtered by units like Kerrey's? The CIA's Robert Ramsdell, one of the two men who developed the My Lai operation, said, "Anyone in that area was considered a VC sympathizer because they couldn't survive in that area unless they were sympathizers." Thanh Phong was in "that area," which lends credence to Klann's account of what Kerrey's raiders did. The death squads run by the CIA men supervising Phoenix were a particular favorite of the man who pinned the medal on Kerrey: Nixon. After My Lai there was a move to reduce funding for these killing programs. According to journalist Seymour Hersh, Nixon passionately objected: "No. We've got to have more of this. Assassinations. Killings." The funding was swiftly restored. When he was at Newsweek in 1998, reporter Gregory Vistica had Kerrey cold, but the newsmagazine's editors decided that since Kerrey was no longer a presidential candidate it wasn't worth exposing him. It was apparently OK for a U.S. senator to be an alleged war criminal. Then the New York Times finally decided to run Vistica's story because Kerrey had left the Senate. Given the lack of disquiet among faculty and students, it's also apparently OK for an alleged war criminal like Kerrey to be head of the New School University in New York, which in earlier days hosted refugees from Nazi Germany. So will the Kerrey brouhaha nudge the nation or Congress into confronting the past and what the Vietnam War really involved? Of course not. Right before the last election, CounterPunch ran a story by Doug Valentine, who wrote "The Phoenix Program," one of the best histories of what really happened in Vietnam. Valentine's CounterPunch story concerned Robert Simmons, in the midst of an ultimately successful campaign to represent Connecticut in Congress. The specific charge against Simmons, originally leveled in the Connecticut paper New London Day in 1994 was that he routinely violated the Geneva Convention while interrogating civilian prisoners during his 20 months of service with the CIA in Vietnam. Simmons claimed he'd always steered clear of the dirty stuff. Same way Kerrey claims that when his unit cut the throats of the old folk in a Thanh Phong peasant hut, he was outside. When Simmons was battling to become a congressman (after a long career in state government in Connecticut), no national paper cared a whit about the fact that a possible torturer and war criminal was on the hustings. Small wonder Congress is being protective of Kerrey, admonishing the Pentagon not to probe what happened at Thanh Phong. How many executive agents of the Phoenix program are strolling up and down the aisles of government?
[CTRL] Simple RF Weapon Can Fry PC Circuits
http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,49048,00.asp Simple RF Weapon Can Fry PC Circuits Scientists show device that could make the electromagnetic spectrum the terrorist weapon of choice. Reggie Beehner, Medill News Service Wednesday, May 02, 2001 ABERDEEN PROVING GROUND, MARYLAND -- A weapon built out of parts from any electronics store can deliver radio frequency radiation that can burn out electronic circuits within seconds, according to a recent demonstration by scientists here. Many government officials fear terrorists could use the simple device to disrupt computer networks or paralyze electronic equipment. Because of its small size, the weapon could be stowed in a van or briefcase and used to wreak havoc on government offices, hospitals, airports, or other targets. The device, assembled with commonly available components, delivers quick, powerful bursts of RF radiation. Just about any unprotected electronic equipment is at risk, including PCs, home security systems, police scanners, and medical and air-traffic control equipment. Businesses can protect their computer networks by using metal product enclosures on hardware and radio frequency filter lines on power lines, says Randy Bernard, vice president of Schriner Engineering, which built the device for a demonstration to government officials. Also, Bernard urges businesses to keep an offsite data storage area to back up materials that could not be protected. "For the guy at home in front of his computer, I'd say don't worry about this," Bernard says. "But if your business has something to lose, then you might want to pay attention. It may not be an immediate threat, but it's something you should keep in mind." But the demonstration is a wake-up call for government and others in technology industries, Bernard notes. "Our whole nation is vulnerable," says David Schriner, a weapons specialist and engineer who codesigned the radio frequency device. "We dance along with all this high technology, and we're very dependent on it. But if it breaks, where will we be?" Though less dramatic than those officials envisioned, the RF weapon demonstrated did inflict noticeable damage on an assortment of electronic equipment. Computer screens flickered and froze, medical equipment died, and a home security system lost all power. Even a camera, purchased earlier in the week to videotape the demonstration, came too close to the radiation pulses and was added to the list of casualties. When building the RF device, the scientists stuck to using "backyard means" to see how easily it could be done. They bought all the components from retail stores or online, finding some on eBay. Total cost for the parts ran about $10,000. "There's nothing classified," Schriner says. "This is all homegrown stuff, everyday tools and parts. And though we're a bright group, we're certainly not unique. Others, including terrorist groups, could do this very easily." Whether such a device could be used effectively by terrorists is unclear, and scientists plan to conduct tests this summer to answer that question. "There's a lot of innuendo that [terrorist groups] have used this," Schriner says. "Is it true? I don't know. Sometimes when you start researching this you find out it's a lot of crock. But the question still remains." That question was enough to convince the Defense Department to spend $4 million on the project and attract the attention of the House Armed Services Committee's Special Oversight Panel on Terrorism. "One of the lessons of warfare is the need to keep ahead of the curve of technology," says Rep. Jim Saxton, R-New Jersey, who chairs the terrorism panel. Saxton was among a handful of congressional leaders who turned out to witness the 45-minute demonstration at a U.S. Army testing ground. Since the dawn of the Cold War, the government has been careful to protect the nation's military computers and infrastructure, officials say. But high costs and cumbersome materials have left those precautions largely ignored in the private sector, leaving many businesses vulnerable.
[CTRL] Middle East Double Standard
http://www.mediamonitors.net/index.html Kill a Pal and You’re a Hero, Kill a Jew and You’re a Terrorist by Amir Meshkin In one of my last articles, I focused on the forgotten meaning of terrorism. Now let us focus on Israel's blatant double standard which encourages militant Jewish settlers to attack Palestinians without fear of prosecution. Palestinians that throw stones are labeled as terrorists. Journalists who speak the truth are labeled are anti-Semitic. Only Israelis get away with murder, racism and civilian violence. When will the world realize that religion and race have nothing to do with the human heart? Israel and its multitude of poisons will soon pass from the sympathetic and forgiving eye of the world. On April 14, Hizbullah killed an Israeli soldier in the Shebaa Farms district which belongs to Syria but is still under Israeli occupation. In retaliation, Sharon not only committed an act of war by attacking a Syrian radar base in Lebanon killing three Syrian soldiers but pounded on civilian villages in Gaza with tanks relentlessly. Israel’s brutal 1978 and 1982 invasions of Lebanon took the lives of thousands of civilians. Israeli warplanes attacked more civilian targets than military targets it seemed.. As many as 600 civilians were killed at one time by soldiers, yet the world still turns a blind eye to such abhorrent actions executed by Israel. There is an obvious double standard that can mean life or death depending on your race. Rabbis such as Ovadia Yosef constantly state their will of annihilating all Arabs and call them serpents. Yosef also stated that God regrets creating the Arabs because they are evil. Maybe it is just me but, Rabbi Yosef sounds a little evil himself. Tommy Lapid, an Israeli politician who was fortunate enough to escape the Nazi death camps as a child stated, "If the Austrian nationalist leader, Jöörg Haidar, had said this, we would have declared war on Austria," which proves further the double standard that Israel has. Although the biggest of the bigots, Rabbi Yosef is a powerful politician, making him and his followers very dangerous. Other rabbis have also asked the Israeli government to avenge the deaths of Israelis killed by Palestinians, arguing that Israel is not harsh enough on the Palestinians. Violence answered with violence is an issue religion is suppose to condemn, but the core of the fighting and struggle of millions of people is religion. Americans and other democratic nations truly take freed Some Israeli citizens, specially militant settlers, feel the way David Glam, whose daughter was almost killed by a suicide bomber, does. He recently stated in an interview that if he had an atomic bomb, he would use it on the Arabs. David Glam cannot take the blame in full however, he and other Israeli citizens are subject to a very racist media in Israel. "Palestinians make up about 20 percent of the Israeli population, Jews from the Middle East another 50 percent. If you include the West Bank and Gaza, the figure reaches 90 percent——yet they are forced to view advertising, the media and films from the perspective of the minority Western Jews," states Professor Ella Habiba Shohat, a Jewish writer now living in New York. Prof. Shohat claims in her book that the media in Israel brainwashes the population into believing that the blue-hair and blue-eyed or "white" looking jew is the "ideal" Jew. Maybe Beshar Assad’s speech comparing the Israelis to the Nazis deserves a second look and not condemnation. Jewish settlers have recently killed Palestinian children picking olive trees, torched Palestinian shops and cars, attacked Israeli police (almost killing a few and wounding many), vandalized mosques, publicly burned Korans (remember Nazi book burnings?), fire-bombed Palestinian homes(current trial of ex Ku Klux Klan member Thomas Blanton Jr comes to mind), and even sprayed stars of David on many shop windows (remember Nazis painting swastikas on Jewish shop windows?), belonging to Palestinians. "I'd like to ask the parents why they let their children play here," states an Israeli soldier in heavy protective gear, speaking about settler kids playing in Palestinian territory. "These settlers, they are crazy people, if you ask me." On April 20 an Israeli policeman, suffered a concussion when a Jewish settler struck him on the head with a rock. Earlier in the week, two officers were almost stabbed by settlers. Settlers often vandalize police cars, curse at policeman, and throw things at them not fearing any type Every month, another American is accused of Anti-Semitism, this month being a couple of Knicks players. Stating your opinion or even the facts will cause the biased media to label celebrities as anti-Semites, but many Jews such as Sharon have written many articles showing hatred and racism, yet they are elected as Prime Ministers and considered heroes. The facts are that Israel is

In 1999, robberies and assaults rose by 16 per cent compared with five per cent across the rest of the EU. Overall levels of violence were far higher in Britain than in countries of comparable size. There were 703,000 assaults recorded by police in 1999 - more than twice the number only four years earlier. This compared with 186,000 in Germany and 216,000 in France. The risk of assault, while low, is higher in Britain than almost anywhere else in the industrialised world, including America. Only in Australia is it greater.

Al Gore's cousin and Monsanto Flunky pushed BGH (AKA cow pus enhancer) through the FDA. flw Bush Names Monsanto Executive To Top EPA Position 5-3-1 WASHINGTON (Reuters) - An executive with Monsanto Co (MON.N), a leading developer of biotech foods, has been nominated for the second-ranking job at the Environmental Protection Agency, the White House said on Tuesday. Linda Fisher, who worked for the EPA for 10 years before heading Monsanto's Washington lobbying office, was nominated for the post of deputy administrator. Fisher also served on a U.S. Agriculture Department advisory committee on biotech foods. One of the major issues currently before the EPA is a request from Aventis SA (AVEP.PA) to approve a genetically- modified corn known as StarLink for human consumption. StarLink, a variety altered to repel pests, was barred from human food in 1998 due to concerns that it might trigger allergic reactions in some people. The discovery of StarLink contamination in taco shells last autumn prompted a massive recall of more than 300 kinds of snack chips, corn flour and other foods. Aventis contends the corn is safe and poses no risk to people who eat it. The EPA, which regulates plants altered to produce their own pesticides, is also considering whether to renew the registration of Bt corn, cotton and potato varieties that were approved six years ago. The registrations are set to expire in September. A HREF=http://www.ctrl.org/;www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.
