I always sensed an LDS push behind this presidency
and the one person in the higher echelons of the
political hierarchy that is the most hidden, that does
the least talking, just happens to be one of the most
powerful. Dick Cheney not only has built an empire on
drugs and oil, but just happens to run a Houston based
company called Halliburton whose primary business,
when not dealing with the enemy, is in Mormon country,
Chemtrail Central

This landed me a certain degree of fame, and infamy.
Today, according to the Homeland Security Act, this

Jam Echelon Day was a great success, in that it

Theory: Propaganda - Theory and PracticePosted by: valis on Dec 13, 2002 - 10:56 PM




 by voxfux - Here's how it's done.With 70% of all capital and human resources that the US government devotes to a given geostrategic objective, going to psychological operations, the propaganda which these Psy-ops are comprised of can be called the single most significant component of what it means to be an American. The level of propaganda is now so, all encompassing, that it becomes safe to say that the totality of American life is merely a simulation. It has been predicted by philosophers and sociologists from Beaudrilliard to McLuhan that this simulation would be our new reality soon. Voxnyc will be bringing you a series on propaganda. Most people associate propaganda with advertising, with partisan opinion heard on talk shows, or with a zealous Sunday morning radio preacher. Indeed, all of these are forms of propaganda, but for the most part they are the least harmful kind because the audience recognizes them as such. The advertiser, for example, clearly wants to sell something, and is trying to keep a particular product or service on the minds of the audience or to make it more appealing to potential consumers. Political commentary is nearly always recognized as such, and while it is intended to persuade its audience, it is far more useful as a means to inform or inspire those already in agreement with the speaker. And audiences likewise recognize that religious programming is intended as much to motivate followers to take a particular course of action (such as donating money) as it is to change the spiritual orientation of non-believers. Thus, they are convinced to embrace the ideas of the speakers or to follow their instructions only if they are already inclined to do so.But there are other types of communication that are far more intrusive -- precisely because audiences tend not to recognize them as propaganda.One example might be false or incomplete news reporting, presented as truth or objective fact. Reports that war has broken out nearby or that a highly-contagious and deadly disease is spreading among the local population would certainly produce a more immediate reaction among large numbers of people than would a commercial for a "new and better" laundry soap or a preacher s plea for money to keep himself on the air.Another way in which propaganda can turn around an unwilling audience is through the process of repetition. At the end of World War II, for example, the people of the United States were not inclined to worry very much about an invasion by the Soviet Union. After all, the Russians had been America s allies during the war. But as the country launched the most massive arms build- up in the history of the world, the Soviet "threat" was stressed again and again -- by government operatives and military leaders, who were soon joined by vast numbers of private organizations, political commentators, intellectuals, entertainers, and, of course, the news media. Though the messages may have differed from one another -- and probably even more so because they did -- the sheer volume of these warnings and the diversity of the sources involved served to confirm in people s minds the reality of the threat. Slogans like "the iron curtain" helped audiences to visualize the "danger." And by the 1950s, bomb shelters and air raid drills were added to the psychological arsenal -- orchestrated not so much to protect the country as to bring about active participation and thus to raise the level of hysteria. The resulting climate of fear justified rapid expansion of military research and arms stockpiling, as well as active combat in far-away places like Korea. Indeed, it was not until people actually saw the brutality of battle on their television screens during the Vietnam conflict that the notion of a "defensive" war on the far side of the globe began to be questioned. So profound, in fact, was the impact of propaganda in the anti-communist era that even after the collapse of the USSR, a large part of the population still wants to believe that America "survived" a great crisis.Indeed, as can be seen from the cold war generally -- and from such incidents as the Cuban missile crisis -- intensive, long-term propaganda tends to be self-fulfilling. Like the arms race that accompanied it, the anti-Soviet mania helped hostilities to flourish and multiply.And while the propaganda of the anti-communist era was designed to facilitate the development of a global US military presence, other types of propaganda are directed more toward social behavior or group loyalties. This was the case in later years of the cold war, when the ideological battleground shifted from Europe to the developing or "non-aligned" world.

Put together a handsome documentary withan original musical score that presents Islam's prophet Muhammadin the most glowing manner, indeed, as a model of perfection.Round up Muslim and non-Muslim enthusiasts to endorse thenobility and truth of his message.Splice in vignettes of winsome American Muslims testifying to thejustice and beauty of their Islamic faith. Then get the U.S. taxpayerto help pay for it.Show it at prime time on the most high-minded TV network. Oh, andscreen it at least once during the holidays, when anyone out ofsynch with Christmas might be especially susceptible to anotherreligion's appeal.This is precisely what the producers of "Muhammad: Legacy of aProphet" have done. In a documentary The Washington Post calls"absorbing, . . . enjoyable and informative," exotic images of thedesert and medieval miniatures mix with scenes of New York Cityand the American flag. Born- and convert-American Muslims speakaffectingly about their personal bond to their prophet.The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) will premiere this two-hourdocumentary across the nation tomorrow night, then repeat it inmost areas.The film's largest tranche of funding comes from the Corporation forPublic Broadcasting, a private, nonprofit corporation created byCongress that in fiscal 2002 received $350 million in taxpayers'funds.The heart of the film consists of nine talking heads competing witheach other to praise Muhammad the most extravagantly. Not one ofthem criticizes him.Some of their efforts are laughable, as when one commentatordenies allegations about Muhammad contracting a marriage ofconvenience with a rich older woman named Khadija: "He deeply,deeply loved Khadija." Oh, and his many marriages were "an act offaith, not of lust." How could anyone know this?Other apologetics are more consequential. What Muhammad did forwomen, viewers learn, was "amazing" - his condemning femaleinfanticide, giving legal rights to wives, permitting divorce andprotecting their inheritance rights. But no commentator is so impoliteas to note that however admirable this was in the 7th century,Muslim women today suffer widely from genital mutilation, forcedmarriages, purdah, illiteracy, sexual apartheid, polygamy and honorkillings.The film treats religious beliefs - such as Muhammad's "NightJourney," when the Quran says he went to heaven and entered thedivine presence - as historical fact. It presents Muslim wars as onlydefensive and reluctant, which is simply false. All this smacks of afilm shown by missionaries.Move to the present and the political correctness is stifling.Hostility is said to be "hurled" at American Muslims since 9/11 - butthere's no mention about the prior and vastly greater (foreign)Muslim hostility "hurled" at Americans, killing several thousand. Thenarrator exaggerates the number of American Muslims,overestimates their rate of growth and wrongly termsthem the country's "most diverse" religious community.But these are details. "Muhammad: Legacy of a Prophet" is anoutrage on two main counts.* PBS has betrayed its viewers by presenting an airbrushed anduncritical documentary of a topic that has both world historical andcontemporary significance. Its patronizing film might be fine for anIslamic Sunday school class, but not for a national audience.For example, PBS ignores an ongoing scholarly reassessment ofMuhammad's life that disputes every detail - down to the centuryand region Muhammad lived in - of its film. This is especially oddwhen contrasted with the 1998 PBS documentary, "From Jesus toChrist," which focuses almost exclusively on the work of cutting-edge scholars and presents the latest in critical thinking on Jesus.* The U.S. government should never fund a documentary whoseobvious intent is to glorify a religion and proselytize for it.

Lockheed Martin Corporationhad 23 contracts worth $27 million; the Schafer Corporation had 9 contractstotaling $15 million. Other prominent contractors involved in the TIAprogram include SRS Technologies, Adroit Systems, CACI Dynamic Systems,Syntek Technologies, and ASI Systems International.TIA itself was first proposed by an employee of a private contractor. JohnPoindexter, who worked on DARPA projects for Syntek, an Arlington, Va.-basedtechnical and engineering services firm, suggested the program in the wakeof the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Poindexter, who headed theNational Security Council during the Reagan administration, was convicted in1990 on five felony counts for his role in the Iran-Contra scandal. Theconvictions were overturned in 1991 because he had been given immunity forhis testimony during the congressional investigation of the affair. On Jan.14, 2002, he returned to the government as the director of the InformationAwareness Office.TIA draws heavily on the private sector. Five of the eight contractorsidentified by the Center are involved in evaluating future contracts for theprogram. Grey E. Burkhart, an associate of Booz Allen Hamilton, identifieshimself on his resume as “assistant project manager” of TIA systemimplementation. Even the phrase “Total Information Awareness” has a privatepedigree—Visual Analytics, Inc., a Poolesville, Md.-based software developerand DARPA contractor, has applied for a trademark for the phrase.In addition, the Center found that at least 24 universities received almost$10 million during the last five years to do research on TIA-relatedprojects. Some of the largest grants went to Cornell University, ColumbiaUniversity and University of California, Berkeley and dealt with the TIA'slanguage translation program, Translingual Information Detection,Extraction, and Summarization.“DARPA doesn’t do any of its own research,” Jan Walker, a spokeswoman forthe agency, told the Center. She also said that DARPA doesn’t requireprivate contractors to share their research solely with DARPA. “Thegovernment benefits when there are commercial applications [from DARPAresearch] because it keeps the cost down,” she said. Any limitations oncommercial use are negotiated “on a case by case basis,” she said, addingthat, “Many of the things DARPA does have commercial applications.”DARPA employs 240 people and oversees a budget of roughly $2 billion,according to its Website. It relies heavily on outside contractors. Some actas “systems engineering technical assistance,” or SETA contractors, whoassist DARPA in “managing the efforts and representing the program withCongress, the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the military servicesand/or involved unified commander.” Typical projects involve five to tencontractors, two universities, and budgets between $10 and $40 million.DARPA’s Website also notes that the best program managers—the agency’semployees who oversee the contractors—“have always been freewheeling zealotsin pursuit of their goals…”A lack of oversightCongress, which exercises oversight of the executive branch and themilitary, has not held a single public hearing on TIA and sources on theHill suggested that members know little about it. In a Nov. 22, 2002,letter, Sen. Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) asked the inspector general of theDefense Department to “conduct a complete and thorough review of the TIAprogram.” Noting that available information regarding TIA was notsufficient, Grassley wrote that “[the Defense Department’s] comments (aboutDARPA) only provide few answers and invite many more questions.”Grassley questioned the parameters and scope of TIA, how Poindexter wasselected to head it, and what protections are in

In the wake of the end of the Cold War, U.S. imperialism has come out clearly as the sole superpower with an overweening arrogance. But the world capitalist system is reeling from a grave economic crisis, the worst since the end of the second inter-imperialist war. 

Even before the Sept. 11 attack, the Bush regime was already agitating for an increase in military production as a way to revive the U.S. economy. In this connection, he has been warmongering and threatening and launching attacks of aggression against countries labeled by the U.S. as "rogue" states. 

Since the Sept. 11 attacks, the U.S. has used these as pretext for launching a war of aggression against Afghanistan, threatening other countries(the 'axis of evil' and 12 countries 'harboring terrorists') and undertaking massive war preparations. 

In the aftermath of the Sept. 11 events in the U.S., the imperialists and their reactionary lackeys in client countries have launched a new offensive against the people's democratic rights under the pretext of waging a 'war against terrorism.' The U.S. has seized on the Sept. 11 events to wage aggressive wars and thereby accomplish their geopolitical objectives to establish control of strategic areas in the Middle East, Central Asia and Southeast Asia. It has also taken the lead in imposing draconian measures that further infringe on the democratic rights of the people and to suppress any opposition to their anti-people policies.

We have seen U.S. military intervention and aggression in the Balkans, Middle East, Africa, and Central Asia. We have seen the state terrorism of the U.S. violating International Humanitarian Law, disregarding and misappropriating UN resolutions. It even launched aggression under various pretexts, such as "human rights", "humanitarian mission", and "peacemaking." 

This war is a continuation of the economic terrorism of IMF-World Bank and WTO by military means. It is aimed at suppressing the peoples that wage revolution, the nations that fight for liberation and the countries or governments that assert national independence. The US is overconfident that it can carry out acts of aggression unilaterally or with the aid of its imperialist allies. But these allies are becoming wary of the propensity of the U.S. to undertake unilateral actions, its hysterical bellicosity and its extreme voracity in grabbing most of the spoils. The U.S. is sowing the ground for violent contradictions among the imperialist powers themselves.

"Free market" globalization has victimized most grievously the oppressed peoples and nations. But it has also weakened the puppet rulers. The loot to share among the competing reactionaries has diminished. Thus, they tend to become more violent in their political rivalry. They have become more corrupt and repressive than ever before.

The U.S. Hegemonic Drive in the Region

Let me cite a recently formulated strategy of U.S. imperialism to further expand its hegemonic drive in the world, particularly in Central Asia and the Asia-Pacific Region. Called the Quadrennial Defense Review 2001, this study states that America's overseas presence, concentrated in Western Europe and Northeast Asia "is inadequate for the new strategic environment, in which U.S. economic and security interests are global and potential threats in other areas of the world are emerging." The new strategic environment of course refers to one that is favorable to the global trade and investments of U.S. monopoly capitalism. 

Based on this strategic environment, QDR 2001 calls for a more aggressive U.S. global security posture, a "political-military" offensive different from what Bush officials call the Clinton administration's purely "defensive" stance. Accordingly, the U.S. global military posture will be reoriented to : " (a) develop a basing system that provides greater flexibility for U.S. forces in critical areas of the world, placing emphasis on additional bases and stations beyond Western Europe and Northeast Asia; (b) providee temporary access to facilities in foreign countries that enable U.S. forces to conduct training and exercises in the absence of permanent ranges and bases; (c) redistribute forces and equipment based on regional deterrence requirements; (d) provide sufficient mobility, including airlift, sealift, prepositioning, basing infrastructure, alternative points of debarkation, and new logistical concepts of operations, to conduct expeditionary operations in distant theatres against adversaries"

While Electro-Optic Counter Measure (EOCM) systems appear to be the best answer to the proliferation of battlefield EO systems, they have attracted substantial criticism from groups such as the Helsinki-based Human Rights Watch because of their potential to temporarily or permanently blind humans. In a 1995 report, the group identified ten US laser weapons systems under development, such as the Saber 203, that it claimed could be used to blind humans. The Sabre 203 is a 'laser grenade' deployed with the US Special Operations Command. It can be fired from a 40-mm grenade launcher mounted on an M-16 rifle. This system is reportedly designed to impair the vision of enemy soldiers and was deployed with US forces to Somalia in 1995. Another system, The Dazer, is a man-portable device capable of firing 50 shots per minute from a 1,000 shot battery magazine. It is now in use with US Special Operations Command. http://www.sfu.ca/~dann/Backissues/nn4-3_12.htm

~I garnered governmental attention by fathering astunt commonly known as Jam Echelon Day. Cooked up inthe fall of 1999, it was a largely publicity orientedcampaign designed to shed some light on a system ofelectronic surveillance that had gone on unchecked,indeed even unrecognized for too long. Since it isharder for someone to get information from you thatyou wish kept secret if you know that they are there,we dove headlong into it and by "we" I mean myself andGrant Bayley - HTML designer for the original JEDwebsite at wiretapped.net. Of course, after itslaunch, the world took over spreading the word. Sixmonths or so later, Echelon was detailed on SixtyMinutes having gone from being a nutty conspiracytheory to knowledge in the public domain. It is thekind of thing that will get you on the shit list ofthe powerful.~The original campaignhttp://serendipity.magnet.ch/cia/bz1.html The village voice on the event: an article based on aby-phone interview i conducted with Sarah Fergusonunder the name of robert kemphttp://www.villagevoice.com/issues/9942/ferguson.php ~This accomplished another thing that I considerimportant: the spreading of some revolutionary memesor paradigms. Firstly, some people became acquainted,for the first time, with the notion that two peoplewho were not among the "powerful" could spark a globalmovement. Secondly, that the campaign was taken upglobally in several languages said to the world, "Wecan be one."Needless to say, these paradigms are the enemy ofsocial control. We made the National Security Agencylook bad and in the ensuing three years I would besubject to an insidious variety of psychologicaloperations designed to destabilize and discredit. Various manner of confusing techniques would be usedafter a few months of having operatives "befriend" mein order to discover what made me tick. By getting anidea of my belief system it would become easier toundo my "uppitiness." I would be targeted for"re-education."A program designed to track down corporate criticscalled Cybersleuth would enable such entities to trackme for such purposes. The ability to pin-point thegeographical precision your detractors was used as oneof E-watch's selling points in the marketing of thisprogram. I would later read that the CIA used theterm "re-education" to mean, quite literally,brainwashing.~Cybersleuthhttp://www.ewatch.com/pop_sleuth.html Tracking so-called "perpetrators" is also part of theservice, says eWatch National Product Manager TedSkinner. That's done by "using a variety of methods,such as following leads found in postings and Websites, working with ISPs, involving law enforcement,conducting virtual stings and other tactics," he says.http://www.businessweek.com/bwdaily/dnflash/july2000/nf00707g.htm ~Also see the below links.~Local activists under government and corporatesurveillance http://groups.yahoo.com/group/psy-op/message/267 ~There is a man named James Glave that writes forWired magazine and it was wired that first picked upour campaign. James Glave was on the Hacktivism listduring all discussions of the planned event so he wasin on all of the information from the get go. Yet,when he wrote the article for Wired, entitled 'HackersAscend Upper Echelon,' the text contained grosslyinnacurate information. For one, the event was saidto have been initiated by Linda Thompson's AmericanJustice Federation, a right-wing tank of people that Iwould come, over the years, to know as fame-starvedand unscrupulous. Linda Thompson was not on the listnor was she involved in any way. Also, the date ofthe event was misrepresented as October 18, 1999instead of October 21 as per the globally distributedalert. This was designed, in my opinion, to have thefollowing effects:1. By attributing the event to the AJF and associatingit with Linda Thompson, it would be sneered at, evenlaughed at as just another right-wing paranoia push.2. By claiming the date as October 18 instead ofOctober 21, confusion would be wrought taking steamout of the campaign.3. With the date switch, the side

CHRONICLE 100: ODD DEVICES IN THE DEEP
Deep-water drilling's cast of characters: pigs, crabs, pikes
By NELSON ANTOSHCopyright 2001 Houston Chronicle 
Before the summer is over, Shell Oil will start remotely launching pigs into a flow line stretching from an oil well to its new Auger platform in the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
Pigs in this case are slugs made out of plastic, with scraper ridges front and rear, that are used to clean out pipelines.




 Originally designed for the military as a mine-clearing device, this crablike robot is searching for potential uses in the oil patch. The problem is getting pigs into a flow line in water too deep for divers, without spending a fortune doing it.
The remotely operated, diverless, subsea pig launcher may provide a low-cost solution to a nasty problem -- flow lines in deep water that require pigging because after a while they become clogged, much like an artery filled with cholesterol.
Typically, in water that is several thousand feet deep, the pigs run in a loop with pumps. This circular route brings the pigs from the well and back into the deep waters.
The Shell plan is different because it would use a single flow line, providing savings estimated at $21 million per project.
This savings is just for reduced cost of the installation. It doesn't include the long-term cost of single vs. round-trip pigging, said Jim Hale of Shell's deep water execution group, speaking at the Offshore Technology Conference.
The trick to putting in just one line is getting the pigs down to the wellhead.
Shell's cagelike device, complete with a cartridge full of pigs, is lowered until it sits on the wellhead on the sea floor. The concept came from Houston's Oceaneering International.
Working almost like an automatic gun, it will drop a pig into a chamber and then send it on its way with a puff of natural gas, to be pushed farther along by the flow of oil as it clears out the buildup from a variety of sources.
For instance, Shell's Serrano well has waxy condensates in the natural gas, while its Oregano well nearby is an asphaultic type of crude, which also creates a gunky buildup, Hale said.
The launcher will hold nine pigs, which the designers calculate will be enough to keep this particular line clean for a year. After that, it can be reloaded using an ROV, or remotely operated vehicle, that does tasks where divers don't dare to go.

A robot well-crawler
Drillers have found ways to drill wells that slant, go horizontal and even turn. But the technology for getting tools into those holes hasn't kept pace.
A long, thin robot that can crawl miles into the earth down a borehole, do a job and then crawl back to the surface promises to help solve that problem.
Called the MicroRig, the robot differs from other "downhole tractors" because it doesn't trail electric wires, which too often pull apart.
Furthermore, it can force its way down a well flowing as much as 5,000 barrels per day through a 3 1/2-inch diameter pipe, according to Joe Donovan of Intelligent Inspection Corp., which is working with Halliburton to commercialize Micro-Rig and other robots.
Powered by batteries, it grips the walls of the pipe with what look like rotating bicycle chains. A computer brain tells it what to do and helps it avoid getting stuck.
It sees when it is getting into trouble, he said. For instance, it knows what a spit pipe looks like and can spot it with eyes that are 11 feet ahead of the traction units.
The first tasks will be relatively simple, such as measuring temperatures and pressures in a well, at depths where communication is nearly impossible.
Later, and it may take years to get there, the robot should be able to open and close the downhole valves used in smart-well technology.
MicroRig should be a real cost-saver in slanting or horizontal wells, Donovan said. Putting something down a vertical well is relatively easy, but in horizontal wells it has to be pushed with a coiled tubing unit that is bulky and expensive to use, especially if the well is offshore.

Crab, fish serve as models
Limited only by their imagination, oil companies are getting a shot at some weird helpers in doing their tough jobs at the bottom of the sea.
These include a 2-foot-wide, 40-pound vehicle modeled after a crab, and a 3-foot-long mechanical fish that was modeled after a pike.
The crab could be used for running seismic lines or laying cable, while the fish could swim along

Agencies see homeland security role for surveillance drones
By Richard H.P. Sia, CongressDaily 
An increasing number of federal agencies are pursuing plans to use pilotless surveillance aircraft to help patrol the Mexican and Canadian borders, protect the nation’s major oil and gas pipelines and aid in other homeland security missions.
Incoming Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman John Warner, R-Va., said in an interview Tuesday that he will ask President Bush to explore the possible deployment of such aircraft, known as unmanned aerial vehicles or drones, by civilian agencies responsible for homeland security.
The drones would be similar to those used in high-profile missions by the CIA and U.S. military to target suspected Taliban and al Qaeda operatives in Afghanistan. But unlike many of the UAVs deployed overseas, such as the one that fired a missile at a carload of suspected terrorists in Yemen last month, the drones flown for homeland security operations would not be armed with weapons, only cameras or sensors, several federal officials said.
“I think it would be very important that the president initiate a study on the future use of UAVs by elements of the federal government other than the military,” Warner said.
Warner said he believes UAVs could be an effective means of watching the home front in the war on terror. But he acknowledged that “they’re quite intrusive.” Warner said concerns about individual privacy, such as those raised when the Pentagon offered to do aerial surveillance during the recent hunt for the Washington-area snipers, are “an open issue and should be addressed by the [president’s] study.”
Among the agencies now committed to deploying UAVs are the Coast Guard and Border Patrol, both of which are moving to the Homeland Security Department. Other non-Defense Department agencies, such as the Transportation Department, are in the early stages of exploring possible security roles for drones. Meanwhile, the Energy Department, which set up a UAV program in 1993 to study clouds and climate change, has been developing high-altitude instruments to measure radiation in the atmosphere.
Despite an industry rumor that the FBI is looking into UAVs at its Quantico, Va. facilities, an agency spokesman said there is no such activity.
Drones, which are controlled remotely on the ground, can hover over an area for hours, sometimes days, to provide accurate and timely information. In the war on terror, the military and CIA have used UAVs for reconnaissance, surveillance, targeting, bomb damage assessment and telecommunication relays over hostile areas, without risking the lives of aircrews. San Diego-based General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc. has supplied the Predator, which can operate up to 25,000 feet, compared to the 40,000-foot ceiling of commercial airplanes. Northrop Grumman Corp. of Los Angeles has produced the still-experimental Global Hawk, which can fly up to 66,000 feet and rival the venerable U-2 spy plane in reconnaissance capabilities.
Since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, interest in UAVs among federal agencies has swelled, industry sources said. “There’s been a lot more activity over the last couple of months,” said one manufacturing executive who asked not to be named. “It’s been really intense. We’re doing things now that we wouldn’t have been doing a year ago.”
“These [UAVs] are hot,” said Daryl Davidson, executive director of the Association for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Systems International. Marketers for Boeing, Northrop Grumman and other top U.S. defense firms have been busy talking to agencies about civilian applications of UAV technology, he said.
Indeed, Boeing, which received a defense contract earlier this year to develop a fuel-cell propulsion system for UAVs, hopes to sell to civilian agencies high-endurance drones that can fly for weeks instead of days, said Chick Ramey, a company spokesman. Lockheed Martin has been shopping around its small Sentry Owl, which the Air Force has used to provide surveillance at air bases, as a tool for property monitoring and pipeline security.
At the Transportation Department, Ellen Engleman, administrator for Research and Special Programs, said she will host a conference on UAVs and transportation security early next year. Her agency began working with NASA nearly four years ago to develop high-altitude sensors, at first to monitor traffic flow and help highway planners but also now to follow trucks carrying hazardous cargo and watch for “irregular activity” at major pipelines, according to her spokesman, James Mitchell.
“UAVs could be very valuable to enhancing security, as long as you can get a real or near-real time look at the pipes with some sensors that can detect irregular activity,” Mitchell said. At Engleman’s direction last April, the agency solicited research proposals for using UAVs to monitor pipelines but so far has

CATEGORIES OF SURVEILLANCE/HARASSMENT TECHNOLOGIES 
(Source - US Congress Office of Technology Assessment)





 Electronic Eavesdropping Technology - (Audio Surveillance)

Radiating devices  receivers (e.g. miniature radio  ultrasonic transmitters)
Non-radiating devices (eg wired surveillance systems including phone taps and concealed microphones)
Tape recorders
Laser-facilitated listening devices, rifle mikes and other "remote " equipment (incl. satellites) N.B. Even phones can be made "hot on the hook" i.e. turned into microphones when not in use.
Optical/Imaging Technology - (Visual Surveillance)

Photographic techniques (incl. zoom lens and infra red cameras)
Television (e.g. closed circuit)
Night vision devices (e.g. image intensifiers)
Satellite based viewing (up to and including the monitoring of writings as they are written; indoors)
Aircraft facilitated viewing 
Computers  Related Technologies - (Data Surveillance)

Microcomputers - decentralisation of machines and distributed processing
Computer networks
Software (eg. expert systems)
Pattern recognition systems
Voice Activated  thought activated computers (incl. "remote" equipment) N.B. In many countries the military operates tracking stations; assisting the giant American National Security Agency. The NSA covertly monitors every call, fax, e-mail, telex and computer data message. The relevant computers search for key words/phrases. Anything/anyone of interest is drawn to the attention of agency operatives. This can lead to a large scale personal surveillance operation by the NSA or other agencies; like the CIA and their criminal connections. The current system is called ECHELON.

Sensor Technology

Magnetic sensors
Seismic sensors
Infra red sensors
Strain sensors
Electromagnetic sensors (incl. brain wave sensors) 
 Other Devices and Technologies

CB radios
Vehicle location systems (incl. satellite tracking)
Machine readable magnetic strips
Polygraphs
Voice stress analysers
Laser interception devices
Cellular radio
Anti personnel weapons - sonic and phasar weapons as well as psychotronic weapons; which target the nervous system. (These have been trialed in riot control in France etc)
Scalar wave weapons - (scalar waves emanate naturally from living organisms and the earth itself).
Infrasound weapons - inducing various forms of illness from remote sources (Also used on dissidents in France)
Neurophones and similar (more advanced) technologies - Satellite or ground based. These can deliver aural harassment via microwaves or lasers aimed at the target.
Visual harassment laser systems. These deliver blurred vision, holographs and so on to disorientate the target and/or experiment; victims' reactions being monitored to study how best to "control" targets.
Brain wave monitors/analysers (remote sensing). These newer technologies actually allow the target's thoughts to be interpreted. 
"Over the horizon" technologies - These facilitate ground-based methods of harassment (eg The Alaskan HAARP project which bounces signals off the ionosphere). N.B. There are literally hundreds of ways of tracking the earth's inhabitants which are available to corrupt agency officials and their criminal contacts (e.g. the mafia). The last seven are examples of devices used to covertly menace political targets who do not have a public profile. Most can be satellite based and anyone can be targeted provided they have neither influence nor contacts in public life. Government secrecy provisions help to prevent public disclosures regarding these technologies. However, there is more than an element of corruption / complicity evident amongst politicians, journalists and other public figures who are aware of what goes on. Others are afraid to interfere.
Further Information
It is evident that countless people (world wide) have already lodged complaints about the following technologies. They are available to government agencies, defense contractors and "organised" crime figures.

Government: The AuroraPosted by: souljah on Dec 15, 2002 - 01:57 AM




 Background Does the United States Air Force or one of America's intelligence agencies have a secret hypersonic aircraft capable of a Mach 6 performance? Continually growing evidence suggests that the answer to this question is yes. Perhaps the most well-known event which provides evidence of such a craft's existence is the sighting of a triangular plane over the North Sea in August 1989 by oil-exploration engineer Chris Gibson. As well as the famous "skyquakes" heard over Los Angeles since the early 1990s, found to be heading for the secret Groom Lake (Area 51) installation in the Nevada desert, numerous other facts provide an understanding of how the aircraft's technology works. Rumored to exist but routinely denied by U.S. officials, the name of this aircraft is Aurora. The outside world uses the name Aurora because a censor's slip let it appear below the SR-71 Blackbird and U-2 in the 1985 Pentagon budget request. Even if this was the actual name of the project, it would have by now been changed after being compromised in such a manner. The plane's real name has been kept a secret along with its existence. This is not unfamiliar though, the F-117a stealth fighter was kept a secret for over ten years after its first pre-production test flight. The project is what is technically known as a Special Access Program (SAP). More often, such projects are referred to as "black programs." So what was the first sign of the existence of such an aircraft? On 6 March 1990, one of the United States Air Force's Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird spyplanes shattered the official air speed record from Los Angeles to Washington's Dulles Airport. There, a brief ceremony marked the end of the SR-71's operational career. Officially, the SR-71 was being retired to save the $200-$300 million a year it cost to operate the fleet. Some reporters were told the plane had been made redundant by sophisticated spy satellites. But there was one problem, the USAF made no opposition towards the plane's retirement, and congressional attempts to revive the program were discouraged. Never in the history of the USAF had a program been closed without opposition. Aurora is the missing factor to the silent closure of the SR-71 program. Testing such a new radical aircraft brings immense costs and inconvenience, not just in the design and development of a prototype aircraft, but also in providing a secret testing place for aircraft that are obviously different from those the public are aware of. Groom Dry Lake, in the Nevada desert, is home to one of America's elite secret proving grounds. Here is Aurora's most likely test location. Comparing today's Groom Lake with images of the base in the 1970s, it is apparent that many of the larger buildings and hangars were added during the following decade. Also, the Groom Lake test facility has a lake-bed runway that is six miles long, twice as long as the longest normal runways in the United States. The reason for such a long runway is simple: the length of a runway is determined either by the distance an aircraft requires to accelerate to flying speed, or the distance that the aircraft needs to decelerate after landing. That distance is proportional to the speed at which lift-off takes place. Usually, very long runways are designed for aircraft with very high minimum flying speeds, and, as is the case at Edwards AFB, these are aircraft that are optimized for very high maximum speeds. Almost 19,000 feet of the runway at Groom Lake is paved for normal operations. Lockheed's Skunk Works, now the Lockheed Advanced Development Company, is the most likely prime contractor for the Aurora aircraft. Throughout the 1980s, financial analysts concluded that Lockheed had been engaged in several large classified projects. However, they weren't able to identify enough of them to account for the company's income. Technically, the Skunk Works has a unique record of managing large, high-risk programs under an incredible unparalleled secrecy. Even with high-risk projects the company has undertaken, Lockheed has a record of providing what it promises to deliver.

Compare the plane with the image here:




The above image is a 757. Unlike the plane in the Pentagon photo, it's silhouette does not at all resemble a military aircraft. As well, it is NOT dark in color, unlike the plane in the stills.

Government: The AuroraPosted by: souljah on Dec 15, 2002 - 01:57 AM




 Background Does the United States Air Force or one of America's intelligence agencies have a secret hypersonic aircraft capable of a Mach 6 performance? Continually growing evidence suggests that the answer to this question is yes. Perhaps the most well-known event which provides evidence of such a craft's existence is the sighting of a triangular plane over the North Sea in August 1989 by oil-exploration engineer Chris Gibson. As well as the famous "skyquakes" heard over Los Angeles since the early 1990s, found to be heading for the secret Groom Lake (Area 51) installation in the Nevada desert, numerous other facts provide an understanding of how the aircraft's technology works. Rumored to exist but routinely denied by U.S. officials, the name of this aircraft is Aurora. The outside world uses the name Aurora because a censor's slip let it appear below the SR-71 Blackbird and U-2 in the 1985 Pentagon budget request. Even if this was the actual name of the project, it would have by now been changed after being compromised in such a manner. The plane's real name has been kept a secret along with its existence. This is not unfamiliar though, the F-117a stealth fighter was kept a secret for over ten years after its first pre-production test flight. The project is what is technically known as a Special Access Program (SAP). More often, such projects are referred to as "black programs." So what was the first sign of the existence of such an aircraft? On 6 March 1990, one of the United States Air Force's Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird spyplanes shattered the official air speed record from Los Angeles to Washington's Dulles Airport.

Memes: Chemtrails, HAARP, September 11, and the AuroraPosted by: souljah on Dec 13, 2002 - 09:19 PM



 "Of course odd contrails are very much of interest to those people looking for the exotic propulsions, such as Pulsed Wave Detonation (PWD), which has been long associated with Black projects such as the famed Aurora."~Long ago, at the age of fifteen, I read Albert Einstein's General and Special Theories of Relativity. Even then, I had the mind of a bit of a physicist. Call it intuition if you wish, but at that age, before I had ever read of anything like a graviton in my perusings of information on the subatomic zoo, I 'came up with' the term: graviton.Intuition of course, whether or not scientist credits it with even existing, is responsible for many a discovery. Perhaps it is simply a matter of bisociation.About ten years ago, I hypothesized that the best craft one could design for interstellar and/or supra-atmospheric travel would be light enough to 'surf' along the Earth's electromagnetic fields (I was not the first by a long shot). Of course, it would have to be of a material that was HIGHLY conductive of electricity, I thought. Gold?I also thought that a saucer-shaped craft would be ideal for such 'surfing.' This is why the mpeg that was sent to me of a saucer hovering over Mexico City intrigued me: it bounced and wavered in place as if resting on the surface of an ocean (not an ocean of water of course). You, of course, will be wondering what the hell all this has to do with the Aurora, HAARP, 'chemtrails, and September 11.' The following is quoted from MILITARY RESEARCH AGENDAS FOR THE FUTURE"If and when 'Aurora' makes its appearance, it is expected to be able to do upwards of Mach 5 or 6 - it is a hypersonic plane built, according to certain sources, on the 'waverider' principle, utilizing 'pulsed wave detonation engines' that employ a unique means of external combustion. Such a hypersonic plane, even if not radar-invisible, would have little trouble penetrating most air defenses at such velocities, and probably could strike with complete anonymity"This snip brought me to a search for 'pulsed wave detonation.'This search, in turn, brought me to the following snip, taken from Strange Trails in the Sky."Of course odd contrails are very much of interest to those people looking for the exotic propulsions, such as Pulsed Wave Detonation (PWD), which has been long associated with Black projects such as the famed Aurora."Unfortunately, the site does not elaborate on this and I cannot find anything else online regarding it. However, another project associated with 'odd contrails' is HAARP which stands for High Frequency Active AURORAL Research Program. HAARP basically sends an electromagnetic beam upward (after a satellite-bound mirror reflects it, it could be sent ANYWHERE) into the ionosphere in order to cause it to reverberate, like a guitar string. This, in turn, can affect the weather. In fact, its applications are numerous. Of course, if the Aurora exists, and pulsed waves are relevant, then HAARP COULD be used to increase the charge of the ionosphere in order that the Aurora might 'surf' along more easily, not unlike the trains in Japan and Europe that ride on a magnetic field.The following is snipped from Contrail, Chemtrail, or Atmospheric Research?"I once saw photos someone had taken of the skies over the University of Colorado (in Boulder): they showed, apparently recordable by film but relatively invisible to naked eye, lasers - bright red beams across the sky. This person took his own pictures and, in my opinion, had not the technical capabilities to fake them. He often spoke of his readings that he engaged in, trying to decipher his results and he often spoke of mirrors - satellite-bound ones. As I think of that and look at the sky, it sure seems that when these contrails (highly compressed steam?) hit the area of the sky OVER the University of Colorado, they take on a wave effect...~visibly~...like something invisible is hitting it and making them ripple. Some portions even seem to be steaming UPWARD..."They might not be lasers of course.Again, a quote from MILITARY RESEARCH AGENDAS FOR THE FUTURE"Such a hypersonic plane, even if not radar-invisible, would have little trouble penetrating most air defenses at such velocities, and probably could strike with complete anonymity"Given that no one can seemingly agree on the nature of the craft in these images, did not this plane strike with 'complete anonymity' on September 11, 2001?I propose little regarding the answer to this question. I, rather, submit these ideas for further research.Thank you for your time.

NARRATOR: Today, the desolate stretches of the Southwest desert are again the site of secret testing. Ninety-four miles north-northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada, the military is testing its latest high-tech aircraft, known as the Aurora Project.
Mr. AFTERGOOD: Well, one of the more amusing and perverse secrecy dramas today is being played out in Nevada,where there is a secret unacknowledged military facility, which has been used for decades as a test facility for advanced aircraft. Not only does the Air Force refuse to acknowledge the existence of the facility, but they have recently moved to seize several thousand additional acres of public land.

On this subject, here are some hints for UFO researchers. There are sonic quakes over Southern California that have been traced to an Aurora aircraft and OTHER CRAFT going to Groom Lake, Nevada. If you plot that course backwards, you come to Australia. Check out the underground facilities at Pine Gap, Australia, if you want to know more about one of the hideouts of the "Elite." The research shows that one of these craft flies over 4,000 miles per hour, but one who should know says they can fly over 8,000 miles an hour. That craft can get to Australia quicker than I can get home from work.

The body of the Aurora is a large, delta-shaped wing. It's suspected that the Aurora may not have any windows because of the extrema speed at which it travels. The Aurora encompasses a new Pulse Wave Detonation (PWD) engine which rather than igniting fuel inside the body of the craft ignites it just out side, adding a good amount of extra speed. The PWD is presently under development at Pratt and Whitney, however we have reason to believe that it's up and running in the Aurora.
~snip~
Speculation about Aurora's existence is heated up by a simply slip of the wrist. In 1984 when an entry in the defense budget mentioned a $2 billion dollar, two-year "Aurora" project it was the break that "black" project watchers were looking for. Pentagon officials did what they do best and denied it was a spy plane. But journalists became suspicious when, a year later, "the Aurora line item vanished as mysterious as it has first appeared." Jane's Aircraft Guide still uses "Aurora" as the name for the secret plane, and it has stuck for ever. Some people have said that the Aurora project is now code-named "Senior Citizen" however no evidence of this has been seen yet. A number of Wall Street defense industry analysts have said for years that they thing Lockheed might be involved in the spy plane business now more than ever.
~snip~
One phenomena which has been connected with the Aurora is the strange "doughnuts on a rope" contrails (see Pic. 5+6) which spread across the skies near Groom Lake, and other places. These "knots" or "doughnuts" are said to form when the fuel is ignited outside the engine (PWD). In a recent trip to NYC one of these contrails was spotted, and photographed, right over the city, suggesting that the Aurora is now flying full-time, and over populated areas.
~snip~
Though to my knowledge there has not been any recent sightings of the Aurora aircraft, there have been a number of sightings of the contrails it leaves behind. On May 2, 1999, the SGRA team viewed, and photographed, the Aurora's contrail over New York City, and while doing so we met and spoke with three witnesses who had seen the aircraft that had made it. They worked in an office building located near Battery Park (at the bottom of Manhattan Island), and their window faced the water and the Atlantic Ocean.

WHEN DICTATORSHIP COMESHOW DO YOU KNOW?By: Alan Stang
Most Americans would agree (I hope) that the victims of a totalitarian dictatorship have the moral, if not the legal, right, indeed the obligation, to use any means to overthrow that dictatorship. The only people I can think of who don't, are Christians who misunderstand scripture, especially Romans 13. You would have to look a long time to find somebody who believes that victims of Nazi oppression didn't have the profound, moral right to use any means, from assassination to TNT, to destroy it. Again, if you believe Romans 13 says you must obey a ruler however evil he is and defer to whatever crimes he commits, if, in other words, you believe God is a Nazi, then you are probably one of those people it would take a long time to find. 
One reason the victims are morally justified in doing whatever they can get away with to liberate themselves is that a dictatorship by definition cancels the rules of normal human association. The main reason such victims may do as they like is that God says believers must replace an evil ruler, and scripture is full of praise for people who do exactly that. We are told to remember Jael with approbation, because she hammered a spike through Sisera's temples while he slept and nailed him to the ground. Not at all the kind of thing a genteel Republican woman would do. 
So, the question arises, how do you know when a system has become a totalitarian dictatorship, thereby liberating its victims to do whatever they can get away with? What are the signs? When did the Hitler system become totalitarian? 
That's easy. Hitler imposed a totalitarian dictatorship on Germany on . . . when he . . . Hmm.
Notice that even in Hitler's case that isn't an easy question to answer. Suppose we're living in Germany and it is January 30, 1933. That is the day Hitler takes over. Are we living under a dictatorship? No, not yet. Remember that Hitler took power legally. President Paul von Hindenburg appointed him Chancellor. On January 30, 1933, Hitler hadn't yet done anything dictatorial. So, if we start the revolution on that day, we would be wrong. Hitler would have said we were breaking the law, and he would have been right. We do know that somewhere between that day and the day he started World War II in concert with his ally, fellow totalitarian socialist dictator Joe Stalin, September 1, 1939, he did impose a dictatorship on Germany. 
When? What did he do to make that fatal change? What we are talking about today applies to all totalitarian dictatorships; we are talking about Hitler, because the modern species of insanity known as "liberalism" has assiduously kept the "Nazi threat" alive for its own totalitarian purposes all these years. 
Early in the 20th century, some observer added the word "totalitarian" to dictatorship to describe a new development in government. Before that time, your typical dictator was satisfied just to run the system with mock elections, or none at all. Today, we call such a system "authoritarian." If you just let the dictator run the government, skim off the graft, live in the palace and make hefty deposits in Switzerland, he will leave you alone. Look at your typical banana republic or Al Capone's Chicago.
The totalitarian dictator is not just more of the same thing; he is something totally different. Inspired to liberal frenzy by the development of technology that makes it possible, he wants total power, power over every aspect of your life, from what you eat, to where you work, to what you read and think and then some. Hence, the term "totalitarian dictatorship."
New Chancellor Hitler went to work to grab total power, but the people wouldn't give it to him, so Nazi thugs burned the Reichstag, the building in which the German version of Congress met. Hitler blamed the Communists for the crime, and, in the emergency, the people gave him the power he wanted. All still legal. Hitler replaced the governments of the historic German states with his own men. See, for instance, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, by William L. Shirer, a liberal.
So, it isn't easy to determine when you are looking at a totalitarian dictatorship, especially when you don't have the advantage of hindsight. Years later, professors with that advantage can point to a date and say when it happened. Indeed, even then they can't be sure. One can make a case that everything Hitler did from beginning to end was at least legal, because he was the government and made the laws. Ask the professors when Nazi Germany became a totalitarian dictatorship and you will probably get a few answers. And this would apply to every totalitarian dictatorship. 
Let me know if I'm wrong, but I can't think of one case in which one of these weasels came right out and told the people what he was doing. It would have been so helpful if Hitler had announced well before January 30, 1933: "Guten morgen, Damen

 "If and when 'Aurora' makes its appearance, it is expected to be able to do upwards of Mach 5 or 6 - it is a hypersonic plane built, according to certain sources, on the 'waverider' principle, utilizing 'pulsed wave detonation engines' that employ a unique means of external combustion. Such a hypersonic plane, even if not radar-invisible, would have little trouble penetrating most air defenses at such velocities, and probably could strike with complete anonymity"MILITARY RESEARCH AGENDAS FOR THE FUTUREThe Militarization of SpaceNow that the armies of the Earth have covered its land area and its navies have filled the sea, the only area left to be militarized is space, and the Pentagon is doing it with a vengeance. Some of the very persons involved in this effort may be ex-Nazi rocket scientists brought over from the Peenemunde V2 factory to work on our fledgling rocket program so we could beat the Soviets to the Moon. While space has already been used for military purposes - mostly the use of reconaissance sattelites to gain information on the enemy and carry communications for military operations - there has never been deployment of actual weapons in orbit. Concern over the deployment of ASAT (anti-sattelite) weapons led the UN to pass the treaty on Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, forbidding such programs. Fortunately, the use of space has mostly been limited to exploration and cooperation, as with the Soyuz linkup of the 1970s, and the planned joint Mars mission of 1992. But there are plans to change that.The COPUOS treaty has not hindered the U.S. under Reagan and Bush from pursuing the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), more colloquially known as "Star Wars." The idea would be to deploy space-based X-ray laser sattelites and projectile systems for 'shooting' down interballistic missles before they can reach their target. While Reagan characterized such a defense as a 'shield,' most physicists see it as having so many problems in both the technological and strategic area that they call it a 'sieve.' At best, it might be able, according to some computer models, to take out 20 to 40% of incoming warheads. But, as with any system, there are countermeasures, and multiple warhead systems (MIRVs), decoy missles, and enemy ASATs might reduce even that level of effectiveness. Most scientists were afraid, especially during the Cold War, of "Star Wars" destabilizing effect as a concept. An enemy which even thought that a country was on the verge of creating such a shield might feel they were prepared to launch a 'first strike,' and they might feel pressured to launch an 'anticipatory' strike to prevent it!Many scientists are afraid that militarization of space also represents a territorialization. While there are UN treaties to restrain the nations of the world from taking what is in the seas or in Antartica for their own, there is no real set of agreements that declares space to be the common heritage of mankind. So, could nations then declare the sovereignty of the space above their countries, even as they do over their 'airspace'? Would they then declare the right to control all space launches or orbital paths that enter that zone? If wealth is located in space - say in the asteroid belt - will nations also go to war in space over who owns it? When nations begin settling in space - either in permanently manned stations or in lunar colonies - will there be conflict over docking rights? The militarization of space is a bad trend, away from where mankind should be going - declaring space to be the place where our lines on Earthly maps should not matter."Smart" Weapons: The automatization and mechanization of warfareHuman soldiers make mistakes. They can be sloppy and very inefficient and undisciplined. They are subject to fatigue, terror, and other problems of the human condition. And occasionally they are restrained by other things like 'conscience' or 'morals' which prevent them from carrying out orders. Robots represent the Pentagon's wet dream: a soldier that can deliver its 'payload' with no foulups and no guilt. "Smart" bombs may be more accurate, since they are guided by complex terrain-mapping programs, but they do not distinguish between civilians and military targets. And they serve to further separate the act of killing from its completion, because the person who programs the guided missile can claim that he bore no malice toward the people that it hits. They may make war more 'surgical,' in that certain targets and sites can be carefully and precisely excised, but if their programmers are in error, these "smart" systems can make very stupid errors, because they don't "know" the difference between a bunker and a milk factory, or between a jet fighter and a 747.The Pentagon also wants to computerize the chain of command at higher levels than delivery - specifically, in the

Well, first we learned where he was August 1st 1973: Getting SUSPENDED from the National Guard [MORE]
Then we learned about another little incident: It says in this court document [PDF] [HTML] on the Office of the County Clerk, Fort Bend County Texas site that Dubya has been accused legally of having sex with a minor, and then using his powers as President to harass her into committing suicide.Got any other goodies? Aside from the male "sexmate" story, of course.(We can't talk about that, It's a "Matter of National Security".) Send them here.

The government's Information Awareness Office--you know, the Defense agency that's running the Total Information Awareness Program, the huge database that will track everything about everyone in the US and beyond, helmed by convicted felon John Poindexter--has gotten a little camera-shy. My guess is that the publication of Poindexter's phone number and address unnerved them a bit. On 26 November 2002, the biography pages of the people who run the IAO were taken off the agency's Website. Richard R. Smith retrieved them from Google's cache and posted them on his Website.

[CTRL] The Microwave Phaser

2002-12-13 Thread Agent Smiley
-Caveat Lector-
http://www.villagevoice.com/issues/0249/smith.php
Weapon of the Weekby George SmithThe Microwave PhaserDecember 4 - 10, 2002



Medium rare: the mobile microwave(illustration: www.de.afrl.af.mil)

he Pentagon has always craved a phaser. Now it's turning to microwaving as a potential means of singeing the enemy. 
The Department of Defense's bland name for this electronic heat ray is the Vehicle-Mounted Active Denial (VMAD) system, a mouthful of jargon that yields few clues about the weapon's nature. Allegedly designed for an Orwellian task—"humanitarian missions"—the VMAD is a giant version of your microwave oven, without the safety box surrounding it. The generals want to move it around on a humvee.
Official propaganda on the device is that it makes one's skin only lightbulb hot, enough to force a person to run but not enough to cook him. Of course, there is no proof this can be achieved, because the results of tests on people are classified. It's safe, insist the inventors, the air force's Directed Energy Directorate in Albuquerque.
But anyone with first-hand experience broiling hot dogs and other non-robust meats in their tabletop microwave might be chary of such an assertion. Struck by the heat ray, "S," went the eyeball.
What is the microwaver's target? It must be unarmed civilians, because as described, the VMAD wouldn't seem to offer much against terrorists or regular soldiers ready to fire back with conventional weapons. What is certain is that the Pentagon's microwave projects lack oversight and common sense. In one manic, grandiose claim, the Defense Department calls VMAD "the biggest breakthrough in weapons technology since the atomic bomb."
The lust for military microwaving has also been a sinkhole for tax dollars. While much of the work remains deep in the shadows, the Directed Energy Directorate (DED) does allow that $40 million went out the door for the VMAD over the last decade. An additional $15 million was awarded to ITT Industries for research on high-power microwaving applications in bombs and other types of ray guns.
Microwaving facilities pictured as part of the Directorate also look to have cost a small fortune. One 27,000-square-foot concrete monolith is worth $9 million, resulting in a "cost-effective and timely capability."
Vendors capitalizing on the VMAD include Raytheon, CPI (Communications and Power Industries), and Veridian Engineering—a tech firm menacingly cited for its part in researching "biological effects."

profile on a famous DARPA researcher: Hans P. Moravec - AI specialist http://www.frc.ri.cmu.edu/~hpm/hpm.cv.htmlis the piece from which the following is snipped:
Hans Moravec is a Principal Research Scientist in the Robotics Institute of Carnegie Mellon University. He has been thinking about machines thinking since he was a child in the 1950s, building his first robot, a construct of tin cans, batteries, lights and a motor, at age ten. In high school he won two science fair prizes for a light-following electronic turtle and a tape-controlled robot hand. As an undergraduate he designed a computer to control fancier robots, and experimented with learning and automatic programming on commercial machines. During his master's work he built a small robot with whiskers and photoelectric eyes controlled by a minicomputer, and wrote a thesis on a computer language for artificial intelligence. He received a PhD from Stanford University in 1980 for a TV-equipped robot, remote controlled by a large computer, that negotiated cluttered obstacle courses, taking about five hours. Since 1980 his Mobile Robot Lab at CMU has discovered more effective approaches for robot spatial representation, notably 3D occupancy grids, that, with newly available computer power, promise commercial free-ranging mobile robots within a decade. His books, Mind Children: the future of robot and human intelligence, 1988, and Robot: mere machine to transcendent mind, 1998, consider the implications of evolving robot intelligence. He has published many papers and articles in robotics, computer graphics, multiprocessors, space travel and other speculative areas.

Devices including "neuroprosthetic" limbs for paralyzed people and "neurorobots" controlled by brain signals from human operators could be the ultimate applications of brain-machine interface technologies developed under a $26 million contract to Duke University sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). The contract is part of DARPA's Brain-Machine Interfaces Program (http://www.darpa.mil/dso/thrust/sp/bmi.htm), which seeks to develop new technologies for augmenting human performance by accessing the brain in real time and integrating the information into external devices.

In a remarkable invention, US scientists have developed a biological computer made of leech neurons that can think for itself.The neuron computer works in a way similar to the human brain. According to BBC, "Leechulator" as thedevice is known as, is the brainchild of Professor Bill Ditto, from the Georgia Institute of Technology. According to him the silicon computer is a dumb machine whereas these biologicalcomputers powered with neurons will cometo the correct answer by themselves based on the partial information provided to them. At present, the computer is able to performonly simple mathematical functions, but the aim is to devise a new generation of fast and flexible computers that can work out forthemselves on how to solve a problem. This approach to computing is particularly suitedto pattern recognition tasks like reading handwriting, which would take enormous amounts of power on a conventional computer.In this invention Leech neurons are used as leeches have been extensively studied and understood and are known to form their own connections from one to another. Each neuronhas its own electrical activity and respondsin its own way to an electrical stimuli. These features can be used to make each neuronrepresent a number. The neurons then inter-linkto perform calculations.

9-11: I.N.S. Deporting 'Magic Boy' Rudy DekkersPosted by: valis on Saturday, December 07, 2002 - 05:21 AM EST



 "The I.N.S. is acting to place the prime suspect in a wider-ranging 9/11 conspiracy investigation out of the reach of the Independent Investigation." At the instigation of Bush Administration officials the Immigration and Naturalization Service is preparing to deport the man whose Venice, FL. flight school served as a magnet for Mohamed Atta's terrorist cadre, effectively placing him beyond the reach of the upcoming 9/11 investigation, the MadCowMorningNews has learned.

Can Democracy be Constructed Based on Terror  Fraud? -
The BHHRG Report on the Kosovo 'Elections,' 17 November 2001

[This report was prepared by Dr. David Chandler. It is Posted with the kind permission 
of the British Helsinki Human Rights Group, 28 November 2001. For some quite 
interesting Further Reading, go to end of page.]

Faking Democracy and Progress in Kosovo

1. Background

“This was an extraordinary election.”[i] The pronouncement of US Ambassador Daan 
Everts, OSCE Mission chief, running the elections was very apt. These elections were 
truly extraordinary in many respects.

One extraordinary aspect is that they were held in a legal vacuum. Kosovo is neither 
an independent state nor any longer under the government of Serbia or the Federal 
Republic of Yugoslavia. The question of statehood is to be postponed to the indefinite 
future while the United Nations assumes the responsibility for governing the province, 
through the UN Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) headed by the Secretary-General’s Special 
Representative (SGSR) the former Danish foreign minister, Hans Haekkerup.

The provincial government elected on 17 November reflects this lack of international 
legal framework. The new post-election arrangements are outlined in a document titled 
‘A Constitutional Framework for Provisional Self-Government in Kosovo’.[ii] This is 
not a constitution but a ‘framework’ for a constitution and not self-government but 
‘provisional’ self-government. The ill-defined legal and political status of the 
former Yugoslav province, reflects Western powers’ diminished respect for state 
sovereignty and the crumbling formal framework of international legal and political 
equality. (1)

Kosovo is an ‘extraordinary’ political experiment because the system of ‘dual power’ 
of an international governing administration alongside a subordinate, 
domestically-elected administration, which developed in an ad hoc manner in 
Bosnia-Herzegovina, is here for the first time officially institutionalised. The new 
framework for a ‘constitution’ of Kosovo, is the first modern political constitution 
to explicitly rule out democracy. The preamble states that the ‘will of the people’ is 
to be relegated to just one of many ‘relevant factors’ to be taken into account by the 
international policy-makers.[iii]

The executive and legislative powers of the UN Special Representative remain 
unaffected by the new constitutional framework. Chapter 8 of the framework lists the 
powers and responsibilities reserved for the international appointee, which include 
the final authority over finance, the budget and monetary policy, customs, the 
judiciary, law enforcement, policing, external relations, public property, 
communications and transport, housing, municipal administration, and the appointment 
of regulatory boards and commissions. And, of course, the power to dissolve the 
elected assembly if Kosovo’s representatives do not show sufficient ‘maturity’ to 
agree with his edicts.[iv]

2. Sham Elections

Many international plenipotentiaries, including US President George Bush, Nato 
Secretary-General Lord George Robertson and United Nations Secretary-General Kofi 
Annan, urged the Kosovo public to turn out to vote, particularly the Kosovo Serbs. 
When it emerged that around 60% of the Albanian and 50% of the Serb voters had taken 
part, the elections were loudly hailed by the international organisers and observers 
to be a ‘glorious day in the history of Kosovo’ and as a ‘huge success’.[v] The 
question of why the international community chose to spend millions of dollars holding 
elections for a provincial administration with token office-holders with highly 
circumscribed powers was, unfortunately, rarely asked.

These elections were extraordinary in the importance attached to them, not just 
because of the lack of power awarded to the victors, but also the fact that the 
results were largely irrelevant once the electoral ‘engineering’ of the OSCE and UNMIK 
was 

[CTRL] Caspian Pipeline Officially Opened Today

Caspian pipeline skirts trouble spots

Caspian pipeline skirts trouble spots
By HIL ANDERSON, UPI Chief Energy Correspondent

Dignitaries from around the world gathered at a
Russian tanker port on the Black Sea Tuesday to mark
the grand opening of a 900-mile pipeline that has
thrown open the door to the vast oilfields of the
volatile Caspian Sea region.

The pipeline was built in a little more than a year by
the Caspian Pipeline Consortium and has been
operational at a rate of about 600,000 barrels per day
for more than a month. It links the huge Tenzig field
of western Kazakhstan to the seaport of Novorossiysk.

While probably not the most direct route to the open
sea, the CPC route runs well north of Afghanistan and
skirts the troubled Russian republic of Chechnya.

This pipeline will strengthen international energy
security by adding more than a million barrels of oil
a day to global supply, and by creating new jobs and
billions of dollars in revenue, said U.S. Secretary
of Energy Spencer Abraham, one of a number of
high-ranking officials from the United States, Russia
and Kazakhstan who attended Tuesday's ceremony in
Novorossiysk.

Novorossiysk has been a major tanker terminal for
Russian crude exports for many years, however it was
not the only choice for the terminus of a crude
pipeline from the Caspian.

It turned out to be the safest and most expedient
investment for the consortium, which spent about $2.65
billion on the project.

During the 1990s, the United States was anxious to see
increased amounts of Caspian oil reaching the world
market in order to further dilute the clout of OPEC
and other major producers. The Caspian has as much as
34 billion barrels of proven reserves and much larger
potential reserves, about a quarter of what the Middle
East holds and larger than the reserves in the United
States and North Sea, according to the U.S. Energy
Information Administration.

The trick, however, was finding a politically secure
route for the oil to take from the landlocked sea to
open waters where it could be hauled to virtually
anywhere in the world.

The most obvious route for a pipeline would be through
the short route through Iran to the Persian Gulf, or
through Afghanistan to the Pakistani coast -- both of
which presented the chance that unfriendly governments
could shut down the pipeline in order to press a
political agenda with the west.

U.S. sanctions against Iran and its refusal to
recognize the Taliban in Afghanistan essentially made
Novorossiysk the only choice for the oil companies
that would invest huge amounts of money in the
Caspian.

The CPC is made up of companies from the Russia,
Kazakhstan and Europe as well as the U.S. companies
Mobil Caspian Pipeline and Chevron Caspian Pipeline
Consortium Co. The Russian Federation holds 24-percent
of the CPC while Kazakhstan and Oman also own stakes.

Executives Tuesday portrayed the CPC project as just
the first of many international projects in the region
that was thrown open by the collapse of the Soviet
Union.

This achievement comes at a time of increased
partnership between the U.S., Russia, and Kazakhstan,
said ChevronTexaco Chairman Dave O'Reilly. CPC is a
bellwether project for successful international
cooperation and demonstrates the confidence the
international business community has to invest in
Russia and Kazakhstan.

U.S. Commerce Secretary Don Evans said earlier this
autumn that the CPC pipeline tells the world that the
United States, Russia, and Central Asian states are
cooperating to build prosperity and stability in this
part of the world.

Caspian crude will have to transit the narrow Bosporus
to the Mediterranean Sea, making Europe its closest
market. A pipeline through Iran or Afghanistan might
make Caspian more economical for North American and
Asian markets, however any new oil on the market helps
keep world prices at reasonable levels.

Greater energy security through a more diverse supply
of oil for global markets -- these are key elements of
President Bush's National Energy Policy, Abraham said
in a plug for his boss. The CPC pipeline is a clear
example of that policy in action, in an international
setting.

Some analysts and critics of the U.S. campaign in
Afghanistan have theorized that the war against the
Taliban is actually aimed at installing a regime in
Kabul that will open the door for construction of
another Caspian pipeline, however Tuesday's ceremony
in Novorossiysk may be a signal that there is no rush.

There is no longer a shortage of oil export capacity
in Kazakhstan, Cambridge Energy Research Associates
said in a recent assessment of the feasibility of an
Afghan pipeline. The need for a major new oil
pipeline via Afghanistan or any other route will not
reemerge until around 2010.

The U.N. Security Council has lifted sanctions against
Sudan, which won U.S. support for lifting the
sanctions by providing intelligence on terrorists.
Further cooperation will give the United States a
vital source of intelligence on terrorist networks and
prevent Sudan from again becoming a safe haven for
Islamic radicals. But Khartoum's cooperation will
require reduced U.S. support for southern rebels, a
potential bone of contention in U.S. domestic
politics.

The U.N. Security Council lifted 5-year-old sanctions
against Sudan Sept. 28 after the United States
abstained from the vote. Earlier, the Sudanese
government had provided Washington with important
intelligence on Saudi exile Osama bin Laden, who lived
in Sudan from 1991 to 1996.

The United States still lists Sudan as a state sponsor
of terrorism, although the intelligence won its
support for lifting the U.N. sanctions. Washington's
own economic sanctions against the east African nation
remain in place. But the recent cooperation has opened
a dialogue that could herald the start of a new era in
Sudanese-U.S. relations and ultimately lead to the
lifting of U.S. sanctions. Washington will expand its
cooperation with Khartoum, reducing its support for
Sudan's southern rebels in the process.

Sudan could play a pivotal role in the U.S.-led
coalition against terrorism. First, it would add one
more Muslim country to the list of U.S. coalition
partners. Second, Khartoum is uniquely positioned to
provide a wealth of information on bin Laden's
activities, investments, networks and operations.
Third, collaboration in the counterterrorism effort
would prevent Sudan from again becoming a haven for
international terrorists.

But a shift in U.S. policy is necessary for gaining
long-term collaboration from the government of
President Omar al-Bashir. For the past four years,
relations between the two nations have been strained.
In 1997, the United States levied economic sanctions
against Sudan, condemning the government as a sponsor
of terrorism and an oppressor of the country's
Christian minority. The events of Sept. 11, however,
have altered Washington's global priorities, and
collaboration with Khartoum will now become vital.

Khartoum's cooperation could advance U.S. efforts to
dismantle the Saudi exile's financial network.
Already, the French bank Credit Lyonnais is freezing
assets belonging to Sudan's Al Shamal Islamic Bank,
which is suspected of involvement with bin Laden, the
Associated Press reported Oct. 1. Al Shamal was
reportedly established by a $50 million investment
from bin Laden – although bank officials have denied
he is a stakeholder – and is closely tied to Sudan's
ruling National Islamic Front. Coordinating U.S. and
Sudanese policies will be key to shutting down bin
Laden's financial access.

Sudan's help will be contingent on America reducing
its support for southern rebels. The United States,
through the U.N.-led humanitarian project Operation
Lifeline Sudan, has been the largest provider of
external aid to the rebel Sudanese People's Liberation
Movement and its militant wing, the Sudanese People's
Liberation Army. In fact the United States gave $161
million in humanitarian aid to Sudan in fiscal 2001,
according to the U.S. Agency for International
Development. The vast majority of goes to refugee
camps in southern Sudan and neighboring Kenya and
Uganda, which are used as rear bases and lines of
supply for the rebels.

Washington would find it hard to cut off that support
without controversy. Following the Sept. 11 attacks,
the Congressional Black Caucus and several
conservative Christian groups with missions in
southern Sudan immediately called for the U.S.
government to take action against Khartoum, according
to the U.N. Integrated Regional Information Network
Sept. 28.

Washington's shift from supporting the rebel army to
cooperating with the government will be difficult to
achieve outright. But the process may already have
begun. For example Congress has delayed legislation
intended to impose stock market sanctions on companies
doing business in Sudan. Such legislation would have
forced the likes of Canadian oil company Talisman,
which has holdings in Sudan, off the

[CTRL] High-tech unmanned aircraft join the bin Laden hunt

2001-11-28 Thread Agent Smiley

-Caveat Lector-

http://www.msnbc.com/news/661255.asp?pne=msn

Machines serve as spies in the sky

From satellites to drones to mini-bugs, robots are on
watch

Nov. 27 —  First, an orbiting satellite snaps a
picture of the zone where the suspect is hiding out.
That serves as a map for the unmanned drone looking
for the right house. When that house is found, a
remote-controlled mini-copter peeks through a window,
sending back video of the suspect. If the window is
opened, a birdlike robot flies in and drops a dusting
of miniaturized wireless sensors. It’s a blueprint for
remote surveillance that could pin down a future Osama
bin Laden — in Kandahar or Kansas City.

TODAY, THAT SCENARIO is science fiction, at least when
it comes to the part about tiny robots flying through
windows. But the war in Afghanistan serves as a
real-life example demonstrating how powerful aerial
surveillance can be — and how quickly it has been
brought up to speed.

Just a year ago, in the course of a CIA experiment
conducted over Afghanistan, an unmanned Predator
aircraft had someone who looked like bin Laden in its
sights, according to The Wall Street Journal. But at
that time, no one had figured out how to arm the
unmanned aircraft.

Afghanistan is now patrolled by Predators armed with
Hellfire anti-tank missiles, and the drones are said
to have played a role in the attack that killed
Mohammed Atef, one of bin Laden’s closest aides. An
even more advanced drone known as Global Hawk has been
rushed into the region’s skies as well, even though
it’s still considered experimental.

The rapid rise of unmanned aerial vehicles, also known
as UAVs, fills out a picture of futuristic
surveillance that ranges from Earth orbit to
on-the-ground monitoring — and the people who make
UAVs say it’s only a matter of time before that
picture comes into focus here at home as well.

Low-cost drones could be used by police departments to
watch criminal hideouts and rush-hour traffic, or by
media organizations to send back video from news
scenes, or by firefighters to keep an eye on
wilderness hot spots. Robotic planes could monitor
power lines, pipelines, border lines and coastlines.

James Rolig of Austria-based Schiebel Technology,
which is developing unmanned mini-copters for the U.S.
military, says the industry is “sort of where the
Internet was in, say, 1988 or 1989. It’s definitely
not a mature industry yet … (but) the building blocks
have already been laid.”

He estimates that unmanned aerial vehicles could break
onto the commercial scene in five to 10 years.

THE AERIAL ARSENAL


Others caution that the aerial revolution may not
proceed that quickly. John Pike, an intelligence
analyst at GlobalSecurity.org, says the challenges
associated with manufacturing workable and affordable
drones are “enormously difficult.”

Nevertheless, he acknowledges that the drones have
already come to occupy a valuable niche in a
21st-century style of surveillance that builds on the
Pentagon’s past experience in the Persian Gulf and the
Balkans.

During the Balkan conflicts of the mid-1990s, the U.S.
military had to learn “how to synergize the strengths
and weaknesses of satellites and UAVs,” he says.
High-flying spy satellites are great for wide-scale,
detailed maps of a target zone — but because they have
to follow a set orbital path, they’re not so good for
real-time tracking of a specific target.

In contrast, “because of the slow speed of Predator
and the narrow field of view of the camera, it was not
very good at finding things,” Pike says. But if
they’re put in the right place, the drones can watch
people or vehicles in real time, using video or even
all-weather radar imagery.

The Predators are tough to land and hard to fly in icy
conditions. But they are working well enough to spark
heightened interest in the Boeing Co.’s Unmanned
Combat Air Vehicle project, which some financial
analysts think could muscle in on the billions of
dollars set aside for next-generation piloted jets
like the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.

On the other end of the spectrum, Schiebel Technology
is developing a small-scale drone dubbed the
CamCopter, and the Navy is testing another breed of
unmanned helicopter known as the VTUAV. Other
companies are building backpack-sized “micro air
vehicles” that soldiers could launch like robo-birds
to see what lies over the next hill.

And someday, the answers to surveillance questions
could literally be blowing in the wind: The Pentagon
is funding research into “smart dust” — wireless
sensors, perhaps no bigger than grains of sand, that
could send back data about light, temperature and
sound.

REALITY CHECK


All this may sound like the promised land for soldiers
and spies, but there are plenty of pitfalls between
here and there — not the least of which is determining
whether future drones will actually work more
efficiently and cheaply than existing technologies.

“It’s still unclear how many of these UAVs are going

BadTrans computer virus strikes
http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_1678000/1678578.stm

Be careful whatyou type, Badtrans could be watching

A sneaky Windows computer virus is circulating that tries to install
software that monitors what users are typing and passes it to the
malicious
program's creator.
Like many of the other computer viruses that have struck in recent
months,
BadTrans-B attempts to spread by exploiting weaknesses in Microsoft
e-mail
programs.

One anti-virus company has caught over 20,000 copies of the virus in the
last 24 hours.

The UK, Germany and US are the countries most seriously infected by the
virus.

Old holes

The BadTrans-B virus is spreading swiftly because, unlike many other
e-mail
viruses, the pernicious payload that helps it raid Microsoft Outlook
address
books does not have to be clicked on to set it off.

Simply previewing the item could cause infection. The loophole the virus
exploits was first discovered in early 2001.

It's baffling to find that even though Microsoft secured that hole eight
months ago, many users have still not applied the patch, said Graham
Cluley
of anti-virus firm Sophos.

When the virus mails itself to the contacts in the address books it
raids,
the virus uses a subject line from an existing message to make it appear
to
be a legitimate reply.

The virus also regularly swaps the name of the attachment travelling with
it, in an attempt to conceal its pernicious payload.

BadTrans-B is a variant of the original BadTrans virus that was first
discovered in April.

BT Openworld error

As well as raiding Outlook and Outlook Express address books, the virus
also
tries to implant a hidden program that tries to send an identifying net
address to the author of the virus.

The hidden program also monitors what users are typing and the
information
it tracks could be used by a malicious hacker to steal credit card
information or passwords for websites.

Britain seems to have been hit hard by the BadTrans-B Windows virus.
Anti-virus firm Message Labs, which logs the numbers of pernicious
programs
it traps, has caught over 21,000 copies of BadTrans-B in the last 24
hours.
Over 50% of these originated in Britain.

The spread of the virus was inadvertently helped by BT Openworld, which
accidentally e-mailed a copy of the virus to its customers.

http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/badtrs_b.shtml

Information about the original W95/Badtrans is available at:
http://www.F-Secure.com/v-descs/badtrans.shtml

Disinfection instructions for Badtrans.b worm can be found here:

http://www.europe.f-secure.com/v-descs/bt_b_dis.shtml

Badtrans.B e-mail worm has been found from several locations in Europe on
24th of November 2001. This worm sends variably named attachments which
might execute automatically when the emails are viewed.

Badtrans.B is spreading under Win32 systems. The virus sends email
messages
with infected attached files, as well as installs spying trojan component
to
steal information from infected systems.

The worm itself is Win32 executable file (PE EXE file). It was found
in-the-wild in compressed form, and has about 29Kb of size. Being
decompressed the worm file length gets about 60Kb of size.

The worm consists of two main components - Worm and Trojan. The Worm
component sends infected messages, the Trojan component sends out the
information (user's info, RAS data, cached passwords, keyboard log) from
infected computers to specified email address. It also keeps leylogger
program body in its code and installs it into the system while infecting
a
new machine.


Infecting the system

When an infected file is run (when a user clicks on attached file and
activates it, or if the worm gets control through IFRAME security breach)
the worm code gets control. First of all the worm drops (installs) its
components to the system and registers them in system registry.

The installed trojan file name, the target directory and registry key are
optional. They are stored in encrypted form in trojan file at the file
end.
A hacker may configure them before sending it to a victim machine, or
before
put it on a web site.

The worm also drops additional keyboard hooker (Win32 DLL file) to the
system and the uses that to spy on text entered by keyboard. The DLL file

Bush's New Rules to Fight Terror Transform the Legal Landscape By
MATTHEW PURDY

http://www.nytimes.com/2001/11/25/politics/25LEGA.html?todaysheadlines
NY Timess November 25, 2001 Pentagon officials begin designing
military tribunals for suspected terrorists, they are considering
the possibility of trials on ships at sea or on United States
installations, like the naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The
proceedings promise to be swift and largely secret, with one military
officer saying that the release of information might be limited to
the barest facts, like the defendant's name and sentence. Transcripts
of the proceedings, this officer said, could be kept from public
view for years, perhaps decades.

The military tribunals are the boldest initiative in a series of
laws and rewritten federal regulations that, taken together, have
created an alternate system of justice in the aftermath of Sept.
11, giving the government far greater power to detain, investigate
and prosecute people suspected of involvement in terrorism.

Those changes, described by legal experts and government and law
enforcement officials, are likely to affect mostly residents of
the country who are not citizens but who, until now, have had many
of the constitutional rights and protections of citizens.

The Bush administration says its agenda commands strong public
support, a view bolstered by recent polls. Even most critics
acknowledge the need for enhanced security measures, but the
administration's new approach has stirred unease both inside and
outside government, as well as overseas.

Some senior law enforcement officials believe that the military
tribunals are unnecessary and that the government's record in
prosecuting terrorists in federal court over the last decade
justifies continuing that approach.

Spanish officials told the United States last week that they would
not extradite eight men suspected of involvement in the Sept. 11
attacks without assurances that their cases would be kept in civilian
court.

Although it remains unclear how widely these new powers will
ultimately be applied, the provisions alter some basic principles
of the American judicial system - like the right to a jury trial,
the privacy of the attorney-client relationship and strong protections
against the use of preventive detention.

The steps taken by the administration reflect outrage that the
Sept. 11 terrorists were foreigners who lived freely and undetected
in the United States, even though some had violated their visas,
and the fear that potential terrorists or people with information
about terrorist acts are among the millions of immigrants in the
country.

We're an open society, we give people access to the American
dream, said Dan Bartlett, the White House communications director.
With that privilege there is a responsibility. That responsibility
has not always been lived up to, and it's not always been asked
that they live up to it, either.

President Bush's authorization of secret military tribunals for
noncitizens accused of terrorism and the systematic interviewing
of 5,000 young Middle Eastern men in the country on temporary visas
is well known.

But broad new powers are also contained in more obscure provisions.

A recent rule change published without announcement in the Federal
Register gives the government wide latitude to keep noncitizens in
detention even when an immigration judge has ordered them freed.

And under new laws, the attorney general can detain for deportation
any noncitizen who he has reasonable grounds to believe is engaged
in any activity that endangers the national security of the United
States,

according to a recent internal Immigration and Naturalization
Service memorandum.

Critics have said that the administration's measures often mean
singling out people on the basis of nationality or ethnicity.

We have decided to trade off the liberty of immigrants - particularly
Arabs and Muslims - for the purported security of the majority,
said David Cole, a law professor at Georgetown University who often
represents detained foreigners.

In the guidelines for carrying out the 5,000 interviews with young
Middle Eastern men, Attorney General John Ashcroft wrote to federal
prosecutors that the selection of the men was not meant to imply
that one ethnic group or religious group is more prone to terrorism
than another. Yet local law enforcement officials in several cities
have balked at carrying out the interviews because of the impression
of profiling.

Secrecy is a hallmark of the wartime judicial system, just as the
free flow of information is a signature of the nation's normal
criminal procedures.

Jim
by nessie May 15 2001, Tue, 10:56am


Jim Squatter

Jim Squatter is an anarchist. He's not a typical
anarchist, but then, which of us is? Though not a
pacifist, Jim is an avid, ardent peace monger.
Mongering peace takes up much of Jim's life as, he
would say, it should yours. He would say, too, for
he's never one to bite his tongue about something
important. On the contrary, Jim is a loudmouth. It
makes him a thorn in the side of the state.

I met Jim in the early eighties. He occupied abandoned
buildings in San Francisco for a living then, which is
how he copped the moniker. He wasn't alone in there.
There was a regular tribe of them. Jim spent most of
his time organizing the others. For American.
squatters they had remarkable success, at least for a
while. Alas, this isn't Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Lima or
Berlin. Squatting at all in San Francisco is no piece
of cake. Organized squatting, out in the open, and in
the cop's face, is a feat to be proud of. It earned
him his reputation, some jail time, and not a few
bruises.

Jim is a pretty good organizer. I'm not sure where he
learned how to do it, It probably wasn't in what he
calls the Air Farce and for sure it was not in the
nut house. Maybe he figured it out on his own. Maybe
he's just a natural. He reads a lot, which must be of
some help. Mostly, he just listens when other people
talk. Jim really cares what you have to say. That's a
whole lot of the organizing process, right there. In a
meeting, he can be fairly charismatic. Out of a
meeting, he's mostly just a guy from the block. That
is, unless he's just thought of something you could be
doing right now for The Cause. Then he turns on the
charm. Jim can be quite charming, when he wants to be.
It's very persuasive.

Jim is also totally fearless. I lost track of how many
times he's been arrested. Twice the SFPD took him out
to Golden Gate Park, beat the living bejeezus out of
him and left him there bleeding. The Santa Crux cops
left him in a paddy wagon out in the sun for a couple
of hours once with no water and a face full of mace
(on the six o'clock news, no less). Jim doesn't quit.
He once went after five skin heads, alone, up on
Haight St. Lucky for them, they had a head start. He
can cover my back any day of the week, a task I don't
trust most folks to be able to handle. Money and
secrets are safe in his hands. He's on a very short
list, indeed. Indeed, I wish it was longer.

Judi Bari driving to Jim's house when the terrorist's
nail bomb went off under the front seat, maiming her
for life, but not intimidating her in the least. She
had just left David Kimnitzer's house, where she had
spent the night.

Two days earlier, after eighteen years with David,
Stephanie Massey left him, and moved in with Jim.
She's ten years Jim's senior, has been around more,
and is much better educated. As near as I can tell,
she's the best thing that ever happened to him. Aside
from the education, which never hurts anyone,
Stephanie is also just naturally smarter than hell.
She knows what she's doing, or else she don't try.
She, too, is totally fearless, a feat in itself for
some one that short. She too, has a pretty loud mouth.


Stephanie bought a house near downtown Oakland in a
thoroughly mixed area. The previous owners had been
driven out by the crack heads next door. Jim and Step
still hadn't unpacked all their stuff when I came by
and taped this interview. The crack heads were already
making plans to move out. This was not of Jim and

maybe even one every two weeks, where we were going up

At one of these meetings we decided the next meeting
was gonna be down in the Bay Area at Seeds house and
it'll be pretty much the final, major meeting before

DAVID

Five or ten minutes before the bomb went off, Judi
left David Kemnitzer's house, where she had spent the
night, and headed for Jim Squatter's place, where the
night before, she had attended a meeting that had been
hosted by Jim's affinity group, the Seeds of Peace
Collective. Two nights before, Stephanie Massey,
David's partner of eighteen years, had left him for
Jim. It was one of those weeks. A couple years later,
David and I sat down to talk about it in depth.

David has been around for a while. He was a Port Huron
era SDSer. These days, he's a database programmer.
Before that he was a private investigator. Before that
he was managing editor at Ramparts Press. He trained
as an anthropologist, but there's not a lot call for
anthropologists. Judi Bari thinks he's a cop. I don't
think he's a cop. Jim Squatter doesn't think he's a
cop. Neither does Stephanie.

David is built like a bear. He has a very nice den and
seventeen roommates. We sat in the immense
kitchen/dining-room complex, talking. Roommates
wandered in and out, living their lives. Some
displayed interest in our conversation. Others ignored
us. Sometimes the clatter of dishes drowned out a word
or two.

We were passing a joint and telling Stephanie stories
when I remembered to turn on the tape recorder.

David: At one point we were walking down this street
in a high crime section of Oakland and we passed this
biker's bar and out in front is this big pickup truck
with a bumper sticker that said, Stop rape. Say yes.


Stephanie walks into the bar . . .

Roommate: Oh, good . . .

Nessie: I can see that. I can see that real easy.

David: . . . and says, Who's the asshole with the big
blue truck out there!?!

And I'm looking around. How many people am I gonna
have to kill?

Nessie: Yeah, right.

David: (laughs loud, for a long time) . . . . and she
was in this guy's face for ten minutes, man.

Nessie: Well, you know, there's this thing about being
short . . .

Linda: Hey! She did right!

Nessie: I didn't say she didn't. I'm saying she has an
attitude. When you're short . . .

David: I was just counting how many I was gonna have
to kill, Linda, I was not leaving.

Roommate: I'm not saying that, I . . .

David: I've always admired her fearlessness.

Nessie: She's short and she knows it. She knows that
even if somebody tries to slug her, they're gonna
hesitate for an instant while they hear their mommy's
voice back up in their head somewhere say, Go pick on
somebody your own size, And while they hesitate,
she's got 'em. It's like wearing glasses. That half a
second counts.

David: Never happen.

Nessie: Hey, I wouldn't mess with her.

David: Short really has nothing to do with it, really.


Nessie: I expect she'll explain that to me in great
detail.

David: I'm sure. We all have some understanding of it.
Lisa once had to write a character sketch of one of
her parents for one of her courses and she did it
about her mother. The title of it is, The Eleven Foot
Tall Woman.

Nessie: (laughs a long time) I can see that.

David: Trust me. Short has nothing to do with it.
(laughs) Short has something to do with Jim.

Nessie: Jim's not so short.

David: Jim's pretty small. Jim's not much bigger than
Stephanie.

Nessie: I never noticed. He seems bigger. It must be
his persona.

David: In one of those first base camps up there in
Redwood Summer, some guy came in brandishing a knife.
So Jim starts facing the guy off . . . and talking him
down. Stephanie picks up a big rock and inches around
behind him. And Jim is utterly surprised at this and
latter he mentioned something about this and I said,
like, hey, what do you want.

Nessie: Jim gets that way sometimes himself. He went
after a half a dozen skinheads by himself up on Haight
St. once. Chased them up the street. They were running
hard, too. Pretty soon he had 'em cornered in this
pizza place. And in the back of this pizza place was
this large Jewish biker, named Marco (well really it's
Marty), and he did not like these guys. They used to
goose step in front of the place, and it's his place
(he owns it), and Jews don't like that kinda shit,
y'know. He happened to be in the back of the place
when Jim came in the front so they were sorta
sandwiched in between them . . . Marco . . . Marco's
Pizza, where Cybele's is now. It was over before I
caught up. I can't run like I used to.

David: I used to be like that. I used to go down to
the Marine Corps and servicemen's bar and pick fights.


Nessie: I got over that when I was young.

David: (sheepishly) I was about nineteen when I . . .

Nessie: (not very convincingly) Yeah, I was about, uh,
er, something like that, uh, (mumble, mumble) . . .

David: It's a dick thing.

Nessie: Nah; it's an American thing. That's what we do
here.

David: It's an American dick thing.

Nessie: Yeah, if we was Afghanis we'd shoot each
other, right?

David: (laughs)

[CTRL] THE EARTHSHIP

2001-11-27 Thread Agent Smiley

-Caveat Lector-

http://www.slip.net/~ckent/earthship/

A sustainable house, made of recycled materials,
continues to push boundaries and win new adherents.

THE EARTHSHIP
In mid-September Hurricane Marilyn roared through the
Caribbean, destroying a quarter of the homes on St.
Thomas, one of the U.S. Virgin islands. Full
restoration of power took several months. Three
thousand miles away, in Taos, New Mexico, Mike
Reynolds, owner of Solar Survival Architecture, read
the news and saw a demand for Earthships.

An Earthship is a home design--utilizing recycled
tires, aluminum cans and earth for construction
materials--that Reynolds and his company have been
building and perfecting for the last 25 years. It is
self-sufficient, getting power from the sun, water
from rain, and recycling its gray water and sewage.
The Earthship would be perfect for a storm-beleaguered
Caribbean Island, Reynolds figures. These buildings
are so heavy, and built into the Earth, that they
couldn't blow away.

If Solar Survival could build one on the island as a
demonstration project, people could start to construct
Earthships on their own. But Reynolds realizes that
the company doesn't have enough time and resources
currently to take on the project. That's life in a
small firm with a revolutionary product in growing
demand. The problem is that we can't be everywhere,
he says. But everywhere we look, it seems that what
we are doing is what is needed.

COMMUNITY PROGRESS
Four years ago, Solar Survival was just starting a
demonstration community of Earthships called Reach.
Reach, which stands for Rural Earthship Alternative
Community Habitat, now has 15 homes on 55 acres.
Reach, located 15 miles northeast of Taos, was
followed by two other developments that are under
construction in the vicinity. One is called Star
(Social Transformation Alternative Republic), located
16 miles west of Taos, about seven miles from a main
road. Star has 20 homes built or under construction.
The latest development, Greater World (no acronym) is
situated nine miles west of town, on Route 64, with 15
homes built or under construction. Both developments
have more than 600 acres, and are long-term projects.
It is common for an Earthship to be built over a two
or three year period, because the owners often use
cash on hand and participate in construction Maximum
build out for each development is about 100 homes,
with hundreds of acres of open space preserved.

Reynolds purchases all of the land in these
membership communities, selling off the right to
build. The residents own their home and the immediate
land on which the building is situated. They have a
right to sell the home, but not the surrounding land.
That belongs to Reynolds, and later, the community
will own it. Solar Survival lays down the only major
public infrastructure--dirt roads. I run the
community for five to seven years to get it
established, and then roll it over to the residents,
he says. Then, the community will be managed like a
condominium association.

Solar Survival has built two rental Earthships at
Greater World and one has been reserved for rental use
at Reach. These are available to people building
homes--or those who would like to find out what it is
like to live in one before making the commitment. The
company is planning more. They are booked up--we
don't have enough of the rental units built, he says.



PRIVATE PROJECTS
In addition to the membership communities, there are
some private subdivisions in the works--one outside
San Diego, California, and another near Rico,
Colorado--that will be based on the Earthship. News
has spread about Solar Survival designs. especially
since 1990, when the term Earthship was coined. In
Bend, Oregon, an Earthship won a reuse and waste
prevention award from the Association of Oregon
Recyclers in September, 1995. Homes have been built
throughout the U.S. and also in Canada, Mexico,
Bolivia and Japan. There is strong interest in the
concept in New Zealand and Australia, and the company
is currently negotiating to construct one for an
upcoming world's fair in Lisbon, Portugal, in 1998.

The company keeps track of Earthships that have been
built or are under construction, and 300 are on the
database. That list is likely not complete, because
some are built independently, straight from the book.
The designs range from a simple 1,000 sq.ft. unit to a
million dollar mansion built by actor Dennis Weaver in
Ridgway, Colorado.


INSPECTORS AND PERMITS
Although the popularity of Earthships is rising, they
are still a novel concept to most public officials.
The first Earthship builder in a region or county has
to take the role of pioneer, educating building
inspectors, planners and zoning boards. When Solar
Survival sells architectural plans to a prospective
homebuilder, the company generally has to help them
through the permitting process, Reynolds says. It
generally takes persistence, and a lot of time. The
company's library of engineering reports,

History of Solar Energy

Revisiting Solar Power's Past
By Charles Smith

Home Location: - Technology Review: July 95: Solar
Power

Inventors unlocked the secrets of turning the sun's
rays into mechanical power more than a century ago,
only to see their dream machines collapse from lack of
public support. Modern solar engineers must not be
doomed to relive their fate.

Charles Smith is an adjunct faculty member in the
Department of Technology at Appalachian State
University, and a doctoral candidate in the Department
of Science and Technology Studies at Virginia
Polytechnic Institute. His primary area of research is
the history of energy.

Many of us assume that the nation's first serious push
to develop renewable fuels was spawned while angry
Americans waited in gas lines during the energy
crisis of the 1970s. Held hostage by the OPEC oil
embargo, the country suddenly seemed receptive to
warnings from scientists, environmentalists, and even
a few politicians to end its over-reliance on finite
coal and oil reserves or face severe economic distress
and political upheaval.
But efforts to design and construct devices for
supplying renewable energy actually began some 100
years before that turbulent time--ironically, at the
very height of the Industrial Revolution, which was
largely founded on the promise of seemingly
inexhaustible supplies of fossil fuels. Contrary to
the prevailing opinion of the day, a number of
engineers questioned the practice of an industrial
economy based on nonrenewable energy and worried about
what the world's nations would do after exhausting the
fuel supply.

More important, many of these visionaries did not just
provide futuristic rhetoric but actively explored
almost all the renewable energy options familiar
today. In the end, most decided to focus on solar
power, reasoning that the potential rewards outweighed
the technical barriers. In less than 50 years, these
pioneers developed an impressive array of innovative
techniques for capturing solar radiation and using it
to produce the steam that powered the machines of that
era. In fact, just before World War I, they had
outlined all of the solar thermal conversion methods
now being considered. Unfortunately, despite their
technical successes and innovative designs, their work
was largely forgotten for the next 50 years in the
rush to develop fossil fuels for an energy-hungry
world.

Now, a century later, history is repeating itself.
After following the same path as the early
inventors--in some cases reinventing the same
techniques--contemporary solar engineers have arrived
at the same conclusion: solar power is not only
possible but eminently practical, not to mention more
environmentally friendly. Alas, once again, just as
the technology has proven itself from a practical
standpoint, public support for further development and
implementation is eroding, and solar power could yet
again be eclipsed by conventional energy technologies.

The First Solar Motor
The earliest known record of the direct conversion of
solar radiation into mechanical power belongs to
Auguste Mouchout, a mathematics instructor at the Lyce
de Tours. Mouchout began his solar work in 1860 after
expressing grave concerns about his country's
dependence on coal. It would be prudent and wise not
to fall asleep regarding this quasi-security, he
wrote. Eventually industry will no longer find in
Europe the resources to satisfy its prodigious
expansion. Coal will undoubtedly be used up. What will
industry do then? By the following year he was
granted the first patent for a motor running on solar
power and continued to improve his design until about
1880. During this period the inventor laid the
foundation for our modern understanding of converting
solar radiation into mechanical steam power.

Mouchout's initial experiments involved a
glass-enclosed iron cauldron: incoming solar radiation
passed through the glass cover, and the trapped rays
transmitted heat to the water. While this simple
arrangement boiled water, it was of little practical
value because the quantities and pressures of steam it
produced were minimal. However, Mouchout soon
discovered that by adding a reflector to concentrate
additional radiation onto the cauldron, he could
generate more steam. In late 1865, he succeeded in
using his apparatus to operate a small, conventional
steam engine.

By the following summer, Mouchout displayed his solar
motor to Emperor Napoleon III in Paris. The monarch,
favorably impressed, offered financial assistance for
developing an industrial solar motor for France. With
the newly acquired funds, Mouchout enlarged his
invention's capacity, refined the reflector,
redesigning it as a truncated cone, like a dish with
slanted sides, to more accurately focus the sun's rays
on the boiler. Mouchout also constructed a tracking
mechanism that enabled the entire machine to follow
the sun's altitude and azimuth, providing
uninterrupted

More on US Shutdown of Somalia's Telecommunications

US shuts down Somalia internet

Somalia's only internet company and a key telecoms company have
been forced to close because the United States suspects them of
terrorist links. The two firms, Somalia Internet Company and
al-Barakaat, both appear on a US list of organisations accused of
funnelling money to the al-Qaeda network.

Both companies have stated categorically they they are not linked
to terrorists.

The US believes the two companies also support Bin Laden

I would say it is very depressing and if I could find any stronger
word than that I would say it - BBC correspondent Hassan Barise

Along with denying all internet access to Somalis, the closures
have severely restricted international telephone lines and shut
down vitally needed money transfer facilities.

Correspondents say the closure of the companies will have a
devastating effect on the country, which desperately needs the
services they provide.

Desperation

The BBC's Hassan Barise in Mogadishu said more than 80% of Somalis
depend on money they receive from relatives outside the country.

Thousands of Somalis depend on al-Barakaat's services

He said all internet cafes have now shut down and international
phone lines run by two other companies are failing to cope with
the extra pressure of calls.

He also pointed out that the United Nations, local and international
aid agencies, as well as the government itself all relied heavily
on internet access, now denied.  I would say it is very depressing
and if I could find any stronger word than that I would say it,
he said.

He added the impact would be felt even more strongly because the
cuts have come during the holy month of Ramadan.

Shutdown

On 7 November, the Bush administration released the list of 62
organisations and individuals accused of financial links with Osama
Bin Laden.

Reports say the Somali Internet Company was forced to close when
it realised that its international gateway had been cut off.

The international phone service is suffering

Al-Barakaat, Somalia's largest company with interests in
telecommunications, banking and postal services, closed its financial
businesses after its assets were frozen. Its international telephone
service was then shut down when its international gateway - run
jointly by ATT and British Telecom - was also cut off. The company,
which has 600 shareholders, is the largest employer in Somalia.
Hundreds of thousands, if not millions of Somalis depend on it to
transfer money throughout the world. Somalis living abroad use it
to send money to their relatives back home as there are no other
banking systems in Somalia since the downfall of the Siad Barre
regime in 1991. Somalia's prime minister has issued a decree
appointing a special committee to investigate al-Barakaat, as well
as all other remittance companies.

The Sleep Room [January 6, 1998]

When Canadians first learned that CIA brainwashing
experiments had been carried out on Canadians... in
Canada... with the knowledge of our government, it was
tremendous shock. As the fifth estate was first to
report in 1980, the work that Dr. Ewan Cameron oversaw
at the Allan Memorial Institute in Montreal was
shocking. Now, the story of Cameron's experiments and
the victims' struggle for justice have been made into
a riveting movie, to be broadcast on CBC Television
this Sunday and Monday nights. For the victims of The
Sleep Room, the horror has never really ended.

in our history.

VOICE-OVER ANNOUNCER: The fifth estate with Trish
Wood, Victor Malarek, Francine Pelletier, and tonight
Linden MacIntyre.

LINDEN MACINTYRE: Welcome to the fifth estate. When
Canadians first learned that CIA brainwashing
experiments had been carried out on Canadians in
Canada, with the knowledge of our government, it was a
tremendous shock. As the fifth estate was first to
report in 1984, the work that Dr. Ewen Cameron oversaw
at his Montreal clinic was shocking. Now the story of
Cameron's experiments and the victims' struggle for
justice have been made into a riveting movie, to be
broadcast on CBC television this Sunday and Monday
nights. For the victims of the Sleep Room, the horror
has never really ended.

Even if you don't know the history of the Allan
Memorial Institute in Montreal, it looks like a
natural setting for a movie, a horror movie maybe. But
then, the truth about what happened to hundreds of
psychiatric patients there a long time ago is a horror
story. And now it has become a movie, a dramatized
account of a bleak chapter in the history of Canadian
psychiatry, produced by a former fifth estate
documentary maker, Bernard Zuckerman. The central
character in the TV movie is a world-renowned
psychiatrist at the Allan in the early sixties. His
name was Dr. Ewen Cameron.

BERNARD ZUCKERMAN (producer, The Sleep Room): It's
the classic story of good turning to evil in its most
simplistic terms. Dr. Cameron started off as someone
who was probably one of the most enlightened
psychiatrists in the country, but then something
happened. And whatever happened, suddenly here is this
enlightened doctor, this noble doctor, who begins
doing more and more and more bizarre experiments on
his patients, to the point where he is destroying the
minds of hundreds of people.

DR. EWEN CAMERON (clip): These are the days and hours
of the 

MACINTYRE: Inspired by the exuberant post-war optimism
in technology, Cameron thought he'd achieved a major
scientific breakthrough: how to repair a damaged human
mind. The media rejoiced, even coined a phrase which
would become a tragically silly oxymoron: beneficial
brainwashing.

Linda MacDonald was a young mother with five children
under the age of five when she started feeling low.
Her family doctor knew just the man to make her
better.

LINDA MACDONALD (former patient of Dr. Ewen Cameron):
I was tired, I was depressed, my back was hurting, and
so he said to the children's father, Why don't you go
to Montreal and visit this Dr. Ewen Cameron, this
famous man, who has all of these accolades, and have
an assessment? So we went. My medical file even says
that I took my guitar with me. And that was the end of
my life. Within three weeks Dr. Cameron decided to
call me an acute schizophrenic, and ship me up to the
sleep room.

MACINTYRE: How long did they put you to sleep for?

MACDONALD: I was in a coma for 86 days.

MACINTYRE: Eighty-six days of unbroken sleep.

MACDONALD: Eighty-six...comatose, yeah, total comatose
state.

MACINTYRE: The theory was simple: erase a disturbed
mind and start all over again. One of Dr. Cameron's
colleagues at the time was

easy for ford to say when he probably was never even
exposed to the situation...

in fact one person was painted entirely in words and
slogans about the nuclear culture and managed to tie
himself, partially, to the front gate and hang,
crucifix style for all of about a minute and a half
before he was grabbed, slammed down, KICKED...and
hauled away...by people with the public 'trust'

my fellow americans, you live in a fantasy world...

your tax dollars paid to bloody a friend of mine...

Excerpt from

The Mafia, CIA and George Bush
by Pete Brewton
SPI Books, NY 1992
ISBN 1-56171-203-5

pp.209-210  224-227

[Rupp is the purported October Surprise pilot that
Richard Brenneke was trying to defend, when his
testimony got him in trouble.]

When Rupp was in Leavenworth Prison he wrote a letter
to President Bush dated August 1, 1989, to which he
attached a copy of his membership card in the
Association of Former Intelligence Offcers. The letter
contains several blatant factual errors. For example,
he stated, My Agency tenure began in 1957 with the
OSS. The OSS was disbanded after World War II. He
also stated in the letter that he had investigated the
Imhausen/Libya affair and its connection with
Ghorbanifar's I.B.I. in Frankfurt. In fact, I.B.I.
was controlled by a man named Barbouti, not the
Iranian middle man Ghorbanifar.

Rupp closed his letter thusly: For the protection of
this country and the ideals which I have been sworn to
uphold, my lips have been and will be sealed, and I
remain, Yours in Faithful Service, Heinrich F. Rupp,
Scorpio 688.

Just your typical CIA contract agent.

Global was also named as a CIA front by a retired CIA
Middle East expert. In December 1990, Bruce Hemmings,
a retired CIA senior operations offcer who worked on
the Iran desk in 1985, issued several written
statements criticizing the CIA's role and cover-up in
the Iran-Contra scandal and other misdeeds. In part of
his statement entitled CIA Gun Running to Iran Goes
Back to 1981, Hemmings stated:

Since at least 1981, a worldwide network of
'free-standing' [i.e., no direct U.S. government ties]
companies, including airlines, aviation and military
spare parts suppliers, and trading companies, has been
utilized by the CIA and the U.S. government to
illegally ship arms and military spare parts to Iran
and to the Contras. These companies were set up with
the approval and knowledge of senior CIA offcials and
other senior U.S. government officials and staffed
primarily by ex-CIA, ex-FBI and ex-military offcers.

The companies include Aero Systems, Inc., of Miami,
Arrow Air, Aero Systems Pvt. Ltd of Singapore, Hierax
of Hong Kong, Pan Aviation in Miami, Merex in North
Carolina, Sur International, St. Lucia Airways, Global
International Airways, International Air Tours of
Nigeria, Continental Shelf Explorations, Inc.,
Jupiter, Florida, Varicon, Inc., Dane Aviation Supply
of Miami, and others, such as Parvus, Safir,
International Trading and Investment Guaranty Corp.,
Ltd., and Information Security International Inc.

Through these mechanisms, staffed by ex-intelligence
and military officers, the administration and the CIA
have been able to circumvent and ignore the legal
intelligence mechanisms and Congressional oversight.
C-130, F4, TOWs and Hawk missile parts were shipped to
Iran in violation of the arms embargo and a variety of
mechanisms were used, including International Air
Tours of Nigeria in August and September 1985, Arrow
Air in November 1985, and Global International and Pan
Aviation and others going back in 1981.

In another document, entitled Corruption Within CIA:
A Cast of Characters, Hemmings severely criticizes
Thomas Twetten, the deputy director of operations for
the CIA and Hemmings's former boss. In one section
Hemmings discusses weapons sales to Iran and how
Twetten deliberately undermined the case of a foreign
official who had information on such sales by turning
the matter over to the British:

Twetten's decision and that of London station is
highly suspect ancl negligent, as they knew, as I did,
that the British government was, along with the
British arms industry, Tiny Rowland, Ashraf Marwan and
Adnan Khashoggi, his partner, deeply involved in such
trafficking. Obviously, Twetten also knew that North,
Shackley, Clines, Hakim, Robert Sensi, and Cyrus
Hashemi, and Farhad Azima were also involved in such
trafficking, as all these individuals were part of the
same network; as him.

Hemmings, who won the CIA's intelligence commendation
medallion in 1985, is extremely bitter about the way
he was treated by the CIA in its attempts to cover up
its role in Iran-Contra.

In his position on the Iran desk in Washington,
Hemmings became aware of the senior CIA officials'
role in the secret arms-for-hostages transaction with
Iran and the subsequent cover up by the CIA. His
knowledge of this came up in April 1987 during the
confirmation hearings for William Webster as Director
of Central Intelligence. Hemmings was ordered by his
superiors to prepare a memo on what he knew, but to
leave out certain things.

My refusal to alter my testimony to fit the cover
story then, and later in 1989 as a Senate witness,
brought me under intense pressure to remain silent or
else!! Death, unemployment and loss of access to my
children were all used as weapons and threats,
Hemmings wrote in a December 1990 statement mailed to
me.

A LETTER OF APPRECIATION
FROM THE RICH

Let’s be honest: you’ll never win the lottery.

On the other hand, chances are pretty high that you’ll
slave away at some shitty job the rest of your life.

That’s because in all likelihood you were born into
the wrong social class. Let’s face it — you’re a
member of the WORKING CASTE.

As a result, you don’t have the education, upbringing,
connections, manners, appearance, and good taste to
ever become one of us.

In fact, you’d probably need a book the size of the
yellow pages to list all the unfair advantages we have
over you.

That’s why we’re so relieved that you continue to
believe the silly old fairy tale about “justice” and
“equal opportunity” in America.

Of course, in a hierarchical system like ours, there’s
not much room at the top to begin with. And anyway,
it’s already occupied by us (in fact we like it up
here so much that we intend to keep it that way).

But at least there’s usually someone lower in the
social hierarchy you can feel superior to and kick in
the teeth once in a while. Even a lowly dishwasher can
find some poor slob even lower than he to sneer and
spit at.

So be thankful for poor Blacks, migrant workers,
prostitutes and homeless street people.

Always remember that if everyone like you were
economically secure and socially privileged like us,
there would be no one left to fill those boring,
dangerous shit jobs in our economy. And no one to
fight our wars or blindly follow orders in our
corporate armies. And certainly no one to meekly go to
their grave without having lived a full and creative
life.

So please, keep up the good work!

Plus, you probably don’t have the same vicious,
greedy, compulsive drive to acquire and possess
wealth, power and prestige that we have. And even
though you sincerely desire freedom, you also fear
freedom, keeping you and others like you in a nervous
state of limbo.

So you mechanically go through life playing your
assigned social role, terrified of what others would
think should you ever dare to “break out of the mold”.


Naturally we play you off against each other whenever
it suits our purposes: skilled workers against
unskilled, unionized against non-unionized, Black
against White, American workers against Japanese
against Mexican against

We continually keep your wages low by invoking
“foreign competition”, “the law of supply and demand”,
or “national security”.

We throw you into the unemployed if you step out of
line or jeopardize our profits.

We even let you vote for one of our political
surrogates every now and then.

Happily, you haven’t a clue as to what’s really
happening — instead you blame Blacks, Jews, Welfare
Mothers, Queers (everybody except us) for your
troubled situation.

Not only that, you still embrace the work ethic, even
though most jobs in our economy undermine your health,
poison the environment, and suck your one and only
life out of you.

We don’t know much about work, but we’re sure glad
that you do.

Of course life could be different.

Society could be organized to meet the real needs of
the general population.

You could control your own activity and not be someone
else’s pawn.

But you don’t know that. You can’t even imagine it.

In fact, that’s probably the greatest accomplishment
of our system: robbing you of your imagination, your
creativity, your ability to think for yourself.

So we’d truly like to thank you from the bottom of our
heartless hearts. It’s obedient wage slaves like you
that help make our lives so pleasant. Your loyal
sacrifice makes possible our corrupt luxury; your work
makes our system work.

So once again, thanks for “knowing your place” —
without even knowing it.

$igned,
Rich $cum of America

[CTRL] The People of Afghanistan Do Not Accept Rule by Northern Alliance

RAWA:
The People of Afghanistan Do Not Accept Rule by
Northern Alliance
CounterPunch Wire

Now it is confirmed that the Taliban have left Kabul
and the Northern Alliance has entered the city.

The world should understand that the Northern Alliance
is composed of some bands who did show their real
criminal and inhuman nature when they were ruling
Afghanistan from 1992 to 1996.

The retreat of the terrorist Taliban from Kabul is a
positive development, but entering of the rapist and
looter NA in the city is nothing but a dreadful and
shocking news for about 2 million residents of Kabul
whose wounds of the years 1992-96 have not healed yet.

Thousands of people who fled Kabul during the past two
months were saying that they feared coming to power of
the NA in Kabul much more than being scared by the US
bombing.

The Taliban and Al-Qaeda will be eliminated, but the
existence of the NA as a military force would shatter
the joyful dream of the majority for an Afghanistan
free from the odious chains of barbaric Taliban. The
NA will horribly intensify the ethnic and religious
conflicts and will never refrain to fan the fire of
another brutal and endless civil war in order to
retain in power. The terrible news of looting and
inhuman massacre of the captured Taliban or their
foreign accomplices in Mazar-e-Sharif in past few days
speaks for itself.

Though the NA has learned how to pose sometimes before
the West as democratic and even supporter of women's
rights, but in fact they have not at all changed, as a
leopard cannot change its spots.

RAWA has already documented heinous crimes of the NA.
Time is running out. RAWA on its own part appeals to
the UN and world community as a whole to pay urgent
and considerable heed to the recent developments in
our ill-fated Afghanistan before it is too late.

We would like to emphatically ask the UN to send its
effective peace-keeping force into the country before
the NA can repeat the unforgettable crimes they
committed in the said years.

The UN should withdraw its recognition to the
so-called Islamic government headed by Rabbani and
help the establishment of a broad-based government
based on the democratic values.

RAWA's call stems from the aspirations of the vast
majority of the people of Afghanistan.

[CTRL] Suffer Palestine's Children

Suffer Palestine's Children
By Sunil K. Sharma

Early in the morning of November 22, five Palestinian
children were blown to pieces by an Israeli mine or
bomb as they headed to school in Khan Younis. The
children were 6 to 14 years-of-age, all from the Al
Astel family. It is unclear if the explosion was set
off by the children tripping over or kicking the
device, or via remote control.

The next day, a senior Israeli Defense Forces (IDF)
official was quoted on Israel Radio as saying a big
mistake was done. The officer admitted an undercover
army unit planted the device in the area, yet evaded
any explanation as to why it was planted in the
vicinity of a school. Yesterday, the IDF issued its
first official statement regarding the killings. An
IDF investigation revealed serious flaws in the
planting and operation of the ordnance. Following the
usual script, the IDF feigned sorrow over the deaths
of five children. The IDF claims the device was
planted in an area used by Palestinians to fire
mortars at nearby Israeli colonial settlements and
army positions. Israel Radio quoted IDF officials as
saying the device was meant to remain well hidden and
was to be set off when the Palestinian shooters
returned to the area. (quoting Ha'aretz, 11/25/01)

Israeli opposition leader MK Yossi Sarid of Meretz,
responding to IDF claims that their recent operations
in Khan Younis were designed to prevent Palestinian
attacks, stated: That's a targeted hit? Do you know
who will pass by the area [where the bomb is planted]?
It's a residential area. What kind of bombs do you
place in an area where school children pass by?
(Ha'aretz, 11/24/01)

MK Ran Cohen (Meretz) has called for a Knesset
committee to investigate the incident, expressing
dismay that the IDF sat quietly for two days before
putting out an official statement that amounts to
little more than a cover-up.

MK Uri Ariel (National Union-Yisrael Beiteinu)
disagreed, stating that IDF investigations take time
because they are thorough. I have faith in the IDF,
he stated. [Ariel] said that the army was is in the
throes of the battle in the territories, and was busy
assassinating Mahmoud Abu Hanoud [of Hamas] and so
could not concentrate solely on the investigation that
Cohen demanded. (Ha'aretz, 11/25/01)

In other words: we were too busy trying to assassinate
a Palestinian leader to investigate our killing of
Palestinian children, but now that we've taken a
five-minute breather from our assassination campaign
we can conclude from our thorough investigation that a
regretful mistake was made. Sorry kids, we'll try to
do a better job of killing the right folks next time.

The Israelis have not condemned the killings, though
some officials say an apology might perhaps be in
order.

According to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, the
total number of Palestinians killed since the second
Intifada erupted on September 29, 2000 is 821. 16,661
Palestinians have been injured, many maimed for life.
Palestinian children under the age of 18 represent
about 1/4 of those killed.

The Israeli military's killing of Palestinian children
is not a sometimes accidental by-product of 34 years
of occupation. It is in fact a matter of deliberate
policy.

In a chilling interview conducted by Ha'aretz
correspondent Amira Hass, an IDF sharpshooter admitted
it was IDF policy to shoot at children above the age
of 12. Here is an excerpt [AH = Hass, IS =
Sharpshooter]:

(AH) You haven't shot children.

(IS) All the sharpshooters haven't shot children.

(AH) But nonetheless there are children who were hit,
wounded or killed after they were hit in the head.
Unless these were mistakes.

(IS) If they were children, they were mistakes.

(AH) Do they talk about this?

(IS) They talk to us about this a lot. They forbid us
to shoot at children.

(AH) How do they say this?

(IS) You don't shoot a child who is 12 or younger.

(AH) That is, a child of 12 or older is allowed?

(IS) Twelve and up is allowed. He's not a child any
more, he's already after his bar mitzvah. Something
like that.

(AH) Thirteen is bar mitzvah age.

(IS) Twelve and up, you're allowed to shoot. That's
what they tell us.

(AH) Again: Twelve and up you're allowed to shoot
children.

(IS) Because this already doesn't look to me like a
child by definition, even though in the United States
a child can be 23.

(AH) Under international law, a child is defined as
someone
up to the age of 18.

(IS) Up until 18 is a child?

(AH) So, according to the IDF, it is 12?

(IS) According to what the IDF says to its soldiers.
I don't know if this is what the IDF says to the
media.

(AH) And children are from 12 down. Is there no order
that between 12 and 18 you shoot at the legs and not
the head?

(IS) Of course we try to see to it that he really is
over
20.

(AH) In the 10 seconds that you have.

(IS) In the 10 seconds that I have, I have to
estimate how old he is.

(AH) And in what

[CTRL] Parapsychology In Intelligence

2001-11-26 Thread Agent Smiley

-Caveat Lector-

i happen to know that much of what we call psychic
phenomena is, indeed, real...however, i personally
doubt that minds devoted to shrouding their wills in
secrecy - minds devoted to deceit - are as capable of
such as those based on love...i could, of course, be
wrong...

however, this does not preclude an operative providing
false information to someone who is psychic and, thus,
employing them...

in order for thought sharing [or think-along] to
occur, i believe, there must be repore between said
individuals...

a key to telepathy is in one's belief system...i.e. if
you believe it to be a hoax you will exclude it from
your experience merely by not recognizing such
instances as such...

remember: your mind is not in your head - your head is
in the mind...i submit that such is true whether or
not it is recognized and that by ignoring this truth
you make yourself more susceptible to mind control
than you can possibly believe - being in denial of it
in the first place...if you DO manage to work this
meme into the core of your belief system, you are
likely to enter what St. John called the 'long dark
night of the soul' or what Crowley called 'the abyss'
or what Robert Anton Wilson calls 'the chapel
perilous' - these are merely different names for a
somewhat dangerous phase one enters of major
re-adjustment of one's perceptive models...since it
challenges the basis of much of what we accept to be
true...this is where it helps to realize that you are
not your thoughts or your ideologies...who is the you
that is having the thoughts?

Parapsychology In Intelligence
A Personal Review  Conclusions

Dr. Kenneth A. Kress



The Central Intelligence Agency has investigated the
controversial phenomenon called parapsychology as it
relates to intelligence collection. The author was
involved with many aspects of the last such
investigations. This paper summarizes selected
highlights of the experiences of the author and
others. The intent is not historical completeness.
Files are available for those interested in details.
Instead the intent is to record some certainly
interesting and possibly useful data and opinions.
This record is likely to be of future benefit to those
who will be required to evaluate intelligence-related
aspects of parapsychology.

The Agency took the initiative by sponsoring serious
parapsychological research, but circumstances, biases,
and fear of ridicule prevented CIA from completing a
scientific investigation of parapsychology and its
relevance to national security. During this research
period, CIA was buffeted with investigations
concerning illegalities and improprieties of all
sorts. This situation, perhaps properly so, raised the
sensitivity of CIA's involvement in unusual
activities. The Proxmire Effect, where the fear that
certain Government research contracts would be claimed
to be ill-founded and held up for scorn, was another
factor precluding CIA from sensitive areas of
research. Also, there tend to be two types of
reactions to parapsychology: positive or negative,
with little in between. Parapsychological data, almost
by definition, are elusive and unexplained. Add a
history replete with proven frauds and many people
instantly reject the subject, saying, in effect, I
would not believe this stuff even if it were true.
Others, who must have had personal conversion
experiences, tend to be equally convinced that one
unexplained success establishes a phenomenon. These
prejudices make it difficult to evaluate
parapsychology carefully and scientifically.

Tantalizing but incomplete data have been generated by
CIA-sponsored research. These data show, among other
things, that on occasion unexplained results of
genuine intelligence significance occur. This is not
to say that parapsychology is a proven intelligence
tool; it is to say that the evaluation is not yet
complete and more research is needed.

Attention is confined to psychokinetics and remote
viewing. Psychokinetics is the purported ability of a
person to interact with a machine or other object by
unexplained means. Remote viewing is akin to
clairvoyance in that a person claims to sense
information about a site or person removed from a
known sensory link.

Anecdotal reports of extrasensory perception (ESP)
capabilities have reached U.S. national security
agencies at least since World War II, when Hitler was
said to rely on astrologers and seers. Suggestions for
military applications of ESP continued to be received
after World War II. For example, in 1952 the
Department of Defense was lectured on the possible
usefulness of extrasensory perception in psychological
warfare. [1] Over the years, reports continued to
accumulate. In 1961, the reports induced one of the
earliest U.S. government parapsychology investigations
when the chief of CIA's Office of Technical Service
(then the Technical Services Division) became
interested in the claims of ESP. Technical project

FBI Bomb School, and Other Atrocities

October 19, 1994

For the past ten months, I've been spending a lot of
time down in the city sitting across the table from
Oakland cops and FBI agents, questioning them under
oath in depositions to gather testimony for our false
arrest lawsuit against them. This has been, to say the
least, an interesting experience. These guys are
professional liars, who have raised selective memory
loss to an art form. There is also a draconian set of
rules about what we're allowed to ask and how we're
allowed to ask it. Nonetheless, between the police
photos and written reports, the FBI files, and the
sworn testimony of these cops and FBI agents, we have
managed to gather quite a bit of information to begin
to piece together what really happened when I was
bombed on May 24, 1990.

Of course the most dramatic of the information we have
uncovered, and the one that has caused so much stir in
the pages of the Anderson Valley Advertiser, is the
FBI Bomb School. Four weeks before I was car-bombed,
according to both the testimony and the written files,
the FBI sponsored a Bomb Investigators' training
course at the College of the Redwoods in Eureka, in
the heart of the redwood region, on the eve of Redwood
Summer. During this week-long course, which was open
to law enforcement only, the FBI actually blew up cars
with pipe bombs to practice responding. The place
where they blew up these cars was (where else?) at a
Louisiana- Pacific logging site north of Eureka

The teacher at Bomb School was Special Agent Frank
Doyle, the FBI Terrorist Squad bomb expert who showed
up at the scene when I was bombed in Oakland, and
directed the collection of evidence. It was Frank
Doyle who concocted the lie that the bomb was on the
back seat floorboard, where we would have seen it.
Among the students at Bomb School were several of the
responding Oakland Police officers and FBI agents who
collected the evidence under Frank Doyle's supervision
at the Oakland bomb scene. The FBI claims that they
have lost the roster of students in the class, even
though the FBI Bomb School memo that we received from
them refers to this roster and says it is attached.

But even without this roster, from the documents that
we have, I have been able to place at least four 1990
Bomb School participants as being among the first
responding to the Oakland bombing. They are, Special
Agent (SA) Frank Doyle, Supervisory Special Agent
(SSA) Patrick Webb, SA John F. Holford, and Oakland
Police Sgt. Myron Hanson. In addition, SA Stockton
Buck, who played a key role at the Oakland bombing
scene, has testified that he attended Bomb School in
Eureka, where they blew up cars with Frank Doyle, but
he doesn't recall if it was 1990 or one of the years
before. Stockton Buck also testified that he found the
assignment of collecting evidence at the Oakland bomb
scene pleasant, because it was a nice day and they had
pavement under their feet. Which makes me think he may
have been contrasting it to the dust and mud of the
L-P clearcut where they had blown up the cars in Bomb
School.

Of course the FBI claims that Bomb School is merely
routine police training, and this is all just a
bizarre coincidence. But the more we have learned
about Bomb School, the more bizarre the coincidence
has become. Oakland Police Sgt. Hanson has testified
that they were told at Bomb School that it is unusual
for a car-bomber to place the bomb inside the
passenger compartment of his victim's car, because of
the supposed difficulty of breaking into a locked car.
Instead, he said, they were told that bombers normally
place their bombs under the car frame or in the engine
compartment. However, Hanson also testified that
several of the cars that were blown up in Bomb
School (and, according to the FBI memo, there were
only three cars in all) did indeed have the bomb
placed in the passenger compartment. In other words,
at the 1990 Bomb School, they created virtually the
same crime scene that was about to happen in Oakland,
and practiced responding to it. Further, they were
told that this scenario was unlikely to represent a
case where the person in the car was the target of the
bombing. In fact, Sgt. Hanson testified that one of
the reasons he says he believed the bomb in my car
belonged to me was that it was in the passenger
compartment.

So even if you can swallow that this was all
coincidental, it definitely had the effect of
prejudicing the respondents to the Oakland bombing.
When we asked Sgt. Hanson how he could have thought
the bomb in my car was in the back seat, considering
that the hole was blown in the front seat, Hanson
replied that he deferred to Frank Doyle because Doyle
was his instructor in Bomb School. If he was my
instructor, said Sgt. Hanson, I don't think I'd sit
there and tell him that much.

According to Frank Doyle's testimony, Bomb School was
held once a year in Eureka for nine or ten

The Criminalization of Ecology
Warcry

As the assault on the environment intensifies, so does
the criminalization of the resistance to that assault.
Crafted under pressure from various right-wing
elements and the corporate lobby, recent
“eco-terrorist” legislation seeks to neutralize all
forms of direct action that interfere with industry
production.

As the assault on the environment intensifies, so does
the criminalization of the resistance to that assault.
Crafted under pressure from various right-wing
elements and the corporate lobby, recent
“eco-terrorist” legislation seeks to neutralize all
forms of direct action that interfere with industry
production. Additionally, Congress has steadily
fattened the FBI’s counter-terrorism budget from $78.5
million in 1993 to $301.2 million in 1999.
Illustrating this increasingly repressive climate,
Joint Terrorism Task Forces have now been set up
throughout the US with the goal of organizing local
law enforcement agencies into effective
counter-terrorism units. By establishing surveillance
and information sharing on activists, the FBI can
empower and encourage the subsequent prosecution of
“eco-terrorists.” The result is an increasingly
dangerous climate for activists. Free’s case is a wake
up call. We must re-strategize and evolve our tactics
if we hope to survive and maintain an effective
defense of the environment despite these treacherous
political developments.

The Juvenile Justice Bill After the Columbine High
School shootings, the US Senate passed the May 1999
Juvenile Justice Bill. Though unrelated in any way to
“juvenile justice,” several provisions were included
that directly target animal rights and environmental
activists. Reflecting industry pressure and influence,
the Juvenile Justice Bill condemns people who commit
politically motivated nonviolent offenses with
exceedingly disproportionate prison terms.
Unfortunately, this law is only one example of a
systematic attempt by industry and government to
discourage direct action by punishing activists with
jail time that far exceeds time given to truly violent
and dangerous people. Such sentencing preferences
illustrate the priority the state gives to property
over human life. The Juvenile Justice Bill also: 1.
Makes it a federal crime to distribute information on
how to make bombs (over the Internet or otherwise) or
other weapons of mass destruction if the “teacher
intends” for the information to be used to commit a
federal violent crime, or knows that the recipient
will use the information to commit such a crime. 2.
Enhances penalties under the Animal Enterprise
Terrorism Act by changing a minimum sentence to a
mandatory five years instead of one. 3. Creates a
“National Animal Terrorism and Ecoterrorism Incident
Clearinghouse” to “accept, collect and maintain”
information on crimes against animal enterprises or
commercial activities because of their “perceived
impact” on the environment. Records of such incidents
are available for all law enforcement agencies. 4.
Enhances sentences for “gangs,” defined as the
assembly of three or more people. These sentencing
guidelines promote selective and politically biased
prosecution by applying more serious penalties against
those who commit crimes in defense of animals or the
environment. The courts are being asked to evaluate
the actions of an individual and the thoughts behind
an action instead of simply evaluating the actual
crime. The bill also undermines the First Amendment
protection of websites and publications.

The RICO Act In May 1999, Senators Orin G. Hatch
(R-UT) and Diane Feinstein (D-CA) introduced an
amendment to the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt
Organization (RICO) Act, aimed at “Animal Enterprise
Terrorism and Ecoterrorism.” RICO was originally
designed to combat traditional organized crime and its
infiltration of legitimate enterprises; however, its
most innovative, and controversial, aspects are
provisions which allow the state to seize property
owned by anyone charged with being part of a “criminal
enterprise.” RICO targets illegal activity organized
across state lines. Thus, if you “organize” using
email and telephone, you can potentially be prosecuted
under federal laws. In the past, RICO has been
employed primarily against white-collar criminals,
anti-abortion protesters and mobsters. Now, target
groups can include just about anyone.

Oregon Declares War on Activists On March 12, two
bills intended to stiffen penalties for
“eco-terrorists” were unanimously approved by the
Oregon House of Representatives. Under HR 2344 and
2385, Oregon’s organized crime laws would be expanded
to include activities such as tree spiking and
sabotage of animal research, livestock or agricultural
operations. Convictions under the laws would be
punishable by up to 20 years in prison and a $300,000
fine. Reflecting the hysterical attitude and culture
of propaganda currently

Republicans to push oil drilling in stimulus bill

By Tom Doggett, Reuters
Environmental News Network Inc.
www.enn.com/news/wire-stories/2001/11/11152001/reu_45591.asp



WASHINGTON — Republicans launched a new campaign
Wednesday to open an Alaskan wilderness to oil
drilling by attaching an energy measure to a crucial
economic stimulus package before the Senate.

The fate of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, a
pristine wilderness in northern Alaska, has been a
long-running fight between Republicans and Democrats
in the Senate.

Republicans say the the refuge could yield billions of
barrels of crude oil that would reduce U.S. dependence
on imports. Democrats contend the wilderness area
should not be sacrificed because huge amounts of oil
could be saved with stricter fuel efficiency
standards.

Republicans will try to amend the $66 billion stimulus
measure by attaching part of the broad energy bill
passed by the House in August. The House legislation
would offer incentives to boost U.S. oil, natural gas,
and coal production as well as opening the refuge to
drilling.

Sen. Larry Craig, Republican of Idaho, said he
formally filed on Wednesday a stripped-down version of
the House energy bill as an amendment to the economic
stimulus legislation.

The Senate began debate this week on whether the
economic package should include extra unemployment
benefits and subsidized health insurance for laid-off
workers or focus mostly on business tax cuts to help
the sluggish U.S. economy.

We will debate energy on the stimulus package, Craig
told reporters on Capitol Hill. Who determines the
price of gasoline in America today? Foreigners from
outside our country, he added.

WHITE HOUSE SUPPORT

The White House signalled its support for the
Republican action.

Vice President Dick Cheney urged the Senate to include
the energy bill in the economic stimulus package. It
(the stimulus bill) ought to be coupled, as well, with
a good energy program, Cheney said in a speech at the
U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

Cheney said it would be foolish in the extreme for
the United States not to boost its oil production.
We're dependent upon a somewhat fragile, uncertain
part of the world for a big part of our oil imports,
Cheney said.

Republicans said they would prefer to vote on the
energy measure as stand-alone legislation, but the
Senate's Democratic leadership has refused to schedule
such a vote.

Some $32 billion in energy tax credits and incentives
and credits were stripped from the House energy bill
before offering it as amendment to improve the
measure's chance of passing the Senate, Craig said.

Craig said he would not hold up the economic package,
and would withdraw his amendment if a bipartisan
agreement on a stimulus plan emerged. In that event,
he said, he would attach the energy language to an
agricultural spending bill when lawmakers return from
Thanksgiving recess. If we have a bipartisan stimulus
package on the floor of the Senate to vote on, we
would not offer the amendment, he said.

GREENS, ROBERT REDFORD OPPOSE DRILLING

Green groups that oppose drilling in the Alaska refuge
stepped up their publicity campaign by holding a news
conference with Hollywood legend Robert Redford. The
actor, who serves on the board of the Natural
Resources Defense Council, said more than 2 million
Americans have written letters and emails urging the
government to keep the refuge off limits to drilling.

I don't feel there is an open, honest debate on this
issue, which is what I think the American people
deserve and should get, said Redford, joined by
several lawmakers on Capitol Hill. Sporting a
checkered gray coat, purple tie, and blue shirt, the
64-year-old Redford said opening up the pristine
refuge would harm wildlife and do little to reduce oil
imports.

Some Senate Democrats have threatened to filibuster
any attempt to let energy companies drill in the
19-million-acre (7.7-million-hectare) refuge.

Sen. Joseph Lieberman, a Connecticut Democrat, again
warned on Wednesday that he would filibuster
legislation that allows drilling in the refuge. This
is the greatest attempt to sting the American people
except for Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, said
Sen. Joseph Lieberman, referring to one of Redford's
most famous movies. We can and will stop them, added
Lieberman.

The federal government has estimated that the Alaskan
refuge could hold as much as 16 billion barrels of
crude oil, enough to replace the amount of crude the
United States imports from Iraq for 70 years.

Critics say it would take at least seven years for oil
production to begin, and that the drilling equipment
and risk of a spill would threaten polar bears,
caribou, migratory birds, and other wildlife.

POWs - the pawns of the nation during four wars


By Harry V. Martin


Copyright FreeAmerica and Harry V. Martin, 1995


The window of opportunity for the potential release or
rescue of American POWs and MIAs from Southeast Asia
has shut tight. Any hope that the U.S. government
might find the resolution to have a full public
disclosure on the fate of Americans from three wars,
died both with the November elections and with the
final report of the U.S. Senate Select Committee on
POWs/MIAs. The Senate Select Committee, however,
states, We want to make clear that this report is not
intended to close the door on the issue. 1223-PAGE
SENATE REPORT IS RELEASED
The 1223-page Senate report was issued this year after
nearly two years of hearings. Although the report
concludes that no American POWs are alive in Southeast
Asia, it does provide an insight into the secret
dealings and manipulations of the Executive Branch of
government in in handling the public on this issue.
The Indochina war, itself, was partly a secret war
and records were falsified at the time to maintain
that secrecy, the report states. Ever-changing
Defense Department policies confused families and
others about the official status of the missing and
obscured even the number of men who might possibly
have remained alive. The official penchant for secrecy
left many families, activists and even Members of
Congress unable to share fully in their own
government's knowledge about the fate of fellow
citizens and loved ones and this, more than anything,
contributed to the atmosphere of suspicion and doubt.


Since the early 1970s, the United States government
has indicated that all prisoners who were alive in
Southeast Asian prison camps were repatriated. The
government insisted, without any supportive evidence,
that some 2500 Americans unaccounted for after a
prisoner exchange, were dead. The Senate report now
disputes that contention. U.S. officials cannot
produce evidence that all of the missing are dead,
the report states. Many of the factors that led to
controversy surrounding the fates of Vietnam-era
POW/MIAs are present, as well, with respect to the
missing from World War II, Korea and the Cold War,
the Senate report adds. Here, too, there have been
barriers to gaining information from foreign
governments; excessive secrecy on the part of our own
government; and provocative reports, official and
unofficial, about what might have happened to those
left behind.

POSSIBILITY AMERICANS MAY STILL BE ALIVE

According to its own words, the Senate Select
Committee was created to examine the possibility that
unaccounted for Americans might have survived in
captivity after POW repatriations at Odessa in World
War II, after Operation Big Switch in Korea in 1953,
after Cold War incidents, and particularly after
Operation Homecoming in Vietnam in 1973. Whether the
Committee has succeeded in its assigned tasks will be
a matter for the public and for history to judge, the
report states. Clearly, we cannot claim, nor could we
have hoped, to have learned everything. We had neither
the authority nor the resources to make case by case
determinations with respect to the status of the
missing. The job of negotiating, conducting
interviews, visiting prisons, excavating crash sites,
investigating live-sighting reports and evaluating
archival materials can only be completed by the
Executive branch.

In summarizing its findings, the Senate Select
Committee noted that President Richard Nixon had
stated that all POWs are on the way home, and the
Defense Department, following standard procedures,
began declaring missing men dead. In 1976, the
Montgomery Committee concluded that because there was
no evidence that missing Americans had survived, they
must be dead. In 1977, a Defense Department official
said that the distinction between Americans still
listed as POWs and those listed as missing had become
academic. Nixon, Ford and Carter Administration
officials all dismissed the possibility that American
POWs had survived in Southeast Asia after Operation
Homecoming, the report emphasized. Even while
President Nixon declared all POWs were repatriated,
the President had sent a letter to the Prime Minister
of Laos stating, U.S. records show there are 317
American military men unaccounted for in Laos and it
is inconceivable that only 10 of these men would be
held prisoner in Laos. Yet dispite this protest, only
10 U.S. military personnel were released from Laos.

The Senate Committee says that it cannot share that
viewpoint. This Committee has uncovered evidence that
precludes it from taking the same view. We acknowledge
that there is no proof that U.S. POWs survived, but
neither is there proof that all of those who did not
return had died. There is evidence, moreover, that
indicates the possibility of survival, at least for a
small number, after Operation Homecoming. The
Committee outlined its reasonings on this

On 17th January 1961 Patrice Lumumba, first and only

circumstances of his death remained a mystery, the
identity of his killers unknown.

I recognised him as he walked towards my car, but
when he told me what they wanted done I was totally,

to get the toothpaste into Lumumba's bathroom.

Speaking at a 1961 rally to mobilize Cubans for the
imminent U.S. invasion, (Che) Guevara cited the recent
murder of Patrice Lumumba as an example of what the
empire is capable of. In the many pages devoted to
events in the Congo (later Zaire), Anderson contests
this claim (without mentioning it). Though he reports
a plan by Dr. Sidney Gottlieb of the CIA's medical
division to poison Lumumba, he states that before
the CIA could get close to Lumumba, however, his own
Congolese rivals did. But the CIA and the U.S.
Embassy had already connived with these Congolese
rivals--Moise Tshombe and Joseph Mobutu--to murder
Lumumba.

has conducted a comprehensive analysis of the extent
to which veterans participated in such research while

Lysergic acid diethylamide, or LSD, has been a
sacrament of artists, would-be prophets, and other
such social chaff since the 1960s. Invented in 1938 by
chemist Dr. Albert Hofmann while looking for an
analeptic (circulatory stimulant), he found it had no
effect on lab animals and forgot all about it. Years
later, on the fateful day 16 of April, 1953, he
accidentally absorbed a little through his fingertips
and went flying on the first acid trip. By then the
CIA had a ten-year-old program running, looking for
interrogation drugs and truth serums. They'd played
with caffeine, barbiturates, peyote, and marijuana.
They also tried to get subjects to kill while under
hypnosis, rounding out an operation seemingly
concocted from the plots of situation comedies. Martin

The man who hand-carried to Leopoldville (Kinshasa)

Sidney Gottlieb, 80, also known as Joseph Schneider,

immigrants. With a chemistry degree from Wisconsin and
a doctorate in bio-organic chemistry from the
California Institute of Technology, Dr Gottlieb joined
the CIA in 1951 as chief of its technical services
division. Two years later he was made responsible for
a literally mind-manipulating project called MKULTRA,
ironically along the same lines as Nazi scientists had
experimented upon Jewish and other prisoners.

According to Sidney Gottlieb, a medical doctor and

investigate whether and how an individual's behavior
could be modified by covert means.

This memo, written by the CIA's Sidney Gottlieb, is
one of the earliest records available from the MKULTRA

series of five major experiments which are to examine

ARMIES OF REPRESSION

The FBI, COINTELPRO and Far-Right Vigilante Networks
By Tom Burghardt, BACORR-North

---
Over the years, our approach to investigative
problems in the intelligence field has given rise to a
number of new programs, some of which have been most
revolutionary, and it can be assumed that with a
continued aggressive approach to these problems, new
and productive ideas will be forthcoming. These ideas
will not be increased in number or improved upon from
the standpoint of accomplishments merely through the
institution of a program such as COINTELPRO which is
given another name, and which in fact, only
encompasses everything that has been done or will be
done in the future. J. Edgar Hoover, FBI Director,
Memorandum, July 15, 1964 [1]
---

1. COINTELPRO AND THE FAR-RIGHT: THE POLITICAL CONTEXT
OF ANTI-CHOICE VIOLENCE
Now that the Christian Right's anti-abortion,
national cultural and holy war2 has evolved into a
campaign of arson, murder and terror, mainstream
feminist groups tied to the capitalist Democratic
Party -- NOW, NARRAL, and The Feminist Majority
Foundation -- are demanding that the FBI investigate
anti-choice violence.

In the wake of Rev. Paul Hill's assassination of Dr.
John Bayard Britton; clinic escort, James Barrett; and
the wounding of clinic escort, June Barrett, July 29
in Pensacola, FL, the drumbeat for federal
intervention has reached deafening proportions.

Armed U.S. Marshals, FBI agents using special
investigative techniques, and police SWAT teams,
however, will neither defend women seeking
reproductive health care nor abortion providers;
rather, such intervention will transform women's
clinics into armed camps. The net result of such a
massive show of firepower by the State will not
guarantee women's safety at clinics. Neither will such
intervention increase women's access to reproductive
health care.

Rather, police intervention on such a grand scale,
plays into the hands of anti-choice terrorists. They
believe that such displays of State power only assist
their own propaganda efforts and tend to buttress
their assertion that abortion is murder, and that
women who control their bodies are doing something
wrong.

Despite U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno's statement
that clinic violence, is a problem throughout the
nation and that it is appropriate to address an
issue of deep concern,3 two more women's clinics have
been fire-bombed since Rev. Paul Hill's murderous
rampage.

A clinic in Falls Church, VA sustained more than
$10,000 in damage, July 30, while a Planned Parenthood
facility in Brainerd, Minnesota, was burned to the
ground on August 10; the Minnesota facility did not
perform abortions. During the same period these two
clinics were attacked, a right-wing vigilante was
arrested in Philadelphia outside a women's clinic; six
molotov cocktails were seized from the trunk of his
car. Reports of death threats against patients,
doctors and health care workers since the Pensacola
murders have skyrocketed.

While the State is poised through the Freedom of
Access to Clinic Entrances Act (the FACE law), to
legitimize anti-abortion thugs who sidewalk counsel
and engage in other forms of harassment against women,
gangsters such as convicted clinic bomber, Rev.
Michael Bray, an endorser of Hill's Defensive Action
Declaration insist:

Anyone who truly believes that the slaughter of
innocent children is what we have with abortion could
go out and shoot an abortionist.4

Similarly, other supporters of the justifiable
homicide position, go further. According to the Rev.
David Trosch, even pharmacists might eventually become
targets. I would see no problem with shooting a
pharmacist, who provided a morning after pill to
women who seek to terminate their pregnancies.5
Trosch, in a July 16 letter that predicted the
massive killing of abortionists and their staffs,
pointedly warned that clinic defenders and
reproductive rights activists will be sought out and
terminated as vermin are terminated.6

Rev. Trosch and C. Roy McMillan, Executive Director of
the Christian Action Group in Jackson, Mississippi,
believe that clinic escorts and clinic defenders act
as accomplices, and therefore, are fair game for
right-wing, anti-abortion vigilantes.

McMillan, a weapons specialist who served two tours of
duty in Vietnam, believes that, Twenty five years
later I have not changed my opinion as to the
justification of the U.S. intervention in Vietnam...I
assume the enemy I killed were not Christian like
me.7

Today, McMillan believes that the killing of unarmed
escort, James Barrett, was no more than so-called
collateral damage.8 Apparently, McMillan's
ideological fervor will come in handy as he, and other
zealots wage cultural civil war on the home front.

“If the world reproaches me for talking too much about
myself, I reproach the world for not even thinking
about itself.”

 —Montaigne


[Childhood]

I was born in 1945 in Louisiana, where my mother had
gone to be with my father at an army camp. While he
was overseas we lived on her parents’ farm in
Minnesota. When he returned a couple years later, we
moved to his home town in the Missouri Ozarks.

Moving at a somewhat slower pace than most of the
country, Plainstown still maintained much of that
small-town, early-twentieth-century, pre-television
American life idealized by Norman Rockwell — the world
of porch swings and lazy afternoons, Boy Scouts and
vacant-lot baseball, square dances and church picnics,
county fairs, summer camps, autumn leaves, white
Christmases. That way of life has often been
disparaged, but it did have some advantages over the
plastic suburban lifestyle that was already beginning
to replace it. Despite their naïveté in many regards,
the inhabitants of the Show-Me State retained some
vestiges of Mark Twainian skepticism and common sense.
Even the poorest people often owned their own home or
farm. Extended families provided a social cushion if
anyone fell on hard times. Things were quiet and safe.
A kid could grow up without much awareness of the
problems in the outside world.

Yearly visits to the Minnesota farm maintained another
link with earlier traditions. I still remember
burrowing in the huge hayloft in the old barn;
exploring the Victorian house, with its old-fashioned
furniture and intriguing things like a clothes chute
that ran from the second floor all the way down to the
musty basement full of strange curios and contraptions
left over from the previous century; or traipsing
after my grandfather, a spry old guy still working
vigorously in the fields in his late eighties.

My father was one of the last of the old-fashioned
family doctors — the kind who used to deliver
successive generations of babies and who charged $5
for a house call, even if it was in the middle of the
night — or sometimes nothing at all if the family was
in difficult circumstances. Like his father before
him, he combined full-time doctoring with part-time
farming; he still does a little of the latter, though
he retired from medical practice a couple years ago.
My mother was trained as a physical therapist, but
spent most of her time as a homemaker taking care of
me and my two sisters.

My earliest and best friend, Sam, was two years older
and lived just around the corner. We played all the
typical games — baseball, basketball, football,
badminton, ping pong, kick the can, marbles, cards,
Monopoly, Scrabble; but what I remember enjoying most
of all were the activities that we created for
ourselves — elaborate constructions with Lincoln Logs
or erector sets, deployment of little metal cowboys
and Indians among forts and tunnels in a sandbox,
building our own club house and tree house, putting on
shows and carnivals for the other kids in the
neighborhood.

I also have fond memories of grade school. Although
the educational system was not particularly
“progressive,” it was very flexible and encouraging
for me. Once I had demonstrated that the usual lessons
were a breeze, the teachers allowed me, and to a
lesser extent a few of my more intelligent classmates,
to skip some of the routine tasks and pursue
independently chosen projects — researching geography,
history, astronomy or atomic physics in the
encyclopedias, compiling lists and charts, conducting
experiments, constructing science exhibits.

Outside class I read voraciously — science, history
and Pogo comics being my main favorites — and learned
some new games: tennis, pool, chess, and above all,
bridge (a fascinating game — I still enjoy reading
books on bridge strategy, though I’ve rarely played it
since I left home). But here again, I remember with
particular fondness the activities my friends and I
devised for ourselves. Three of us created a little
imaginary island world with extended families of
characters cut out of foam, about whom we composed
elaborate genealogies and stories. Another friend and
I invented a game inspired by our fascination with the
history of exploration. (Politically correct types
will have a field day with this one.) He was England
and I was France, each out to explore and colonize the
rest of the world during the sixteenth century. We
would close our eyes and point to a spot on a spinning
globe, then throw three coins: the combination of
heads and tails would determine how far we could
travel from that spot (the distance depending on
whether we traveled by sea, river or land) and how
much territory we could claim. I think there were

Chapter 1: Some Facts of Life
“We can comprehend this world only by contesting it as
a whole. . . . The root of the prevailing lack of
imagination cannot be grasped unless one is able to
imagine what is lacking, that is, what is missing,
hidden, forbidden, and yet possible, in modern life.”

 —Situationist International(1)


[Utopia or bust]

Never in history has there been such a glaring
contrast between what could be and what actually
exists.

It’s hardly necessary to go into all the problems in
the world today — most of them are widely known, and
to dwell on them usually does little more than dull us
to their reality. But even if we are “stoic enough to
endure the misfortunes of others,” the present social
deterioration ultimately impinges on us all. Those who
don’t face direct physical repression still have to
face the mental repressions imposed by an increasingly
mean, stressful, ignorant and ugly world. Those who
escape economic poverty cannot escape the general
impoverishment of life.

And even life at this pitiful level cannot continue
for long. The ravaging of the planet by the global
development of capitalism has brought us to the point
where humanity may become extinct within a few
decades.

Yet this same development has made it possible to
abolish the system of hierarchy and exploitation that
was previously based on material scarcity and to
inaugurate a new, genuinely liberated form of society.


Plunging from one disaster to another on its way to
mass insanity and ecological apocalypse, this system
has developed a momentum that is out of control, even
by its supposed masters. As we approach a world in
which we won’t be able to leave our fortified ghettoes
without armed guards, or even go outdoors without
applying sunscreen lest we get skin cancer, it’s hard
to take seriously those who advise us to beg for a few
reforms.

What is needed, I believe, is a worldwide
participatory-democracy revolution that would abolish
both capitalism and the state. This is admittedly a
big order, but I’m afraid that nothing less can get to
the root of our problems. It may seem absurd to talk
about revolution; but all the alternatives assume the
continuation of the present system, which is even more
absurd.


* * *

[Stalinist “communism” and reformist “socialism”
are merely variants of capitalism]

Before going into what this revolution would involve
and responding to some typical objections, it should
be stressed that it has nothing to do with the
repugnant stereotypes that are usually evoked by the
word (terrorism, revenge, political coups,
manipulative leaders preaching self-sacrifice, zombie
followers chanting politically correct slogans). In
particular, it should not be confused with the two
principal failures of modern social change, Stalinist
“communism” and reformist “socialism.”

After decades in power, first in Russia and later in
many other countries, it has become obvious that
Stalinism is the total opposite of a liberated
society. The origin of this grotesque phenomenon is
less obvious. Trotskyists and others have tried to
distinguish Stalinism from the earlier Bolshevism of
Lenin and Trotsky. There are differences, but they are
more of degree than of kind. Lenin’s The State and
Revolution, for example, presents a more coherent
critique of the state than can be found in most
anarchist writings; the problem is that the radical
aspects of Lenin’s thought merely ended up
camouflaging the Bolsheviks’ actual authoritarian
practice. Placing itself above the masses it claimed
to represent, and with a corresponding internal
hierarchy between party militants and their leaders,
the Bolshevik Party was already well on its way toward
creating the conditions for the development of
Stalinism while Lenin and Trotsky were still firmly in
control.(2)

But we have to be clear about what failed if we are
ever going to do any better. If socialism means
people’s full participation in the social decisions
that affect their own lives, it has existed neither in
the Stalinist regimes of the East nor in the welfare
states of the West. The recent collapse of Stalinism
is neither a vindication of capitalism nor proof of
the failure of “Marxist communism.” Anyone who has
ever bothered to read Marx (most of his glib critics
obviously have not) is aware that Leninism represents
a severe distortion of Marx’s thought and that
Stalinism is a total parody of it. Nor does government
ownership have anything to do with communism in its
authentic sense of common, communal ownership; it is
merely a different type of capitalism in which

New evidence links George Bush to Los Angeles drug
operation
by Edward Spannaus © Executive Intelligence Review
(LaRouche)

On Oct. 27, 1986, federal and local law enforcement
officials executed search warrants on more than a
dozen locations connected to a major
cocaine-trafficking ring in southern California
centered around Danilo Blandon.. One of the locations
raided was the home of a former Laguna Beach police
officer by the name of Ronald Lister.

Los Angeles Sheriff's Department detectives reported
that when they raided Lister's house, they found
``films of military operations in Central America,
technical manuals, information on assorted military
hardware and communications, and numerous documents
indicating that drug money was being used to purchase
military equipment for Central America.'' Documents
were also found which diagrammed ``the route of drug
money out of the United States, back into the United
States purchasing weaponry for the Contras.''

An official report by one of the detectives from the
1986 raid stated: ``Mr. Lister ... told me he had
dealings in South America and worked with the CIA and
added that his friends in Washington weren't going to
like what was going on. I told Mr. Lister that we were
not interested in his business in South America. Mr.
Lister replied that he would call Mr. Weekly of the
CIA and report me.''

New evidence has now surfaced showing who some of
Lister's ``friends in Washington'' were, and we shall
see that these ``friends'' ran all the way up to the
Office of the Vice President, at that time George
Bush.

Mark Richard's tell-tale notes
Around the same time as the October 1986 drug raid,
``Mr. Weekly,'' whose full name is David Scott Weekly,
became the subject of a federal investigation opened
for the purpose of prosecuting him on federal
explosives charges. According to later testimony, this
investigation was under way for some time before
Weekly himself first learned about it, which was on
Dec. 21-22, 1986.

But ten days before Weekly learned that he was being
targetted, Bill Price, the U.S. Attorney in Oklahoma
City handling Weekly's case, had a telephone
conversation with a top official at Justice Department
headquarters about some of the stickier aspects of the
investigation. The official to whom Price talked was
Mark Richard, a Deputy Assistant Attorney General in
the Criminal Division, and the career Justice
Department official who served as the Department's
liaison to the intelligence agencies.

The question arises: What might have triggered this
conversation between Mark Richard--the DOJ's point of
contact for the NSC, CIA, and military intelligence
agencies--and the Oklahoma prosecutor?

First of all, on Oct. 5, 1986, a C-123 cargo plane,
flying from El Salvador's Ilopango military air base,
had been shot down over Nicaragua. Three crewmen were
killed, and the fourth, Eugene Hasenfus, was captured
by the Nicaraguan Sandinistas. This was the beginning
of the public unravelling of what became known as the
``Iran-Contra'' affair.

Then came the Oct. 27 raid in Los Angeles, after which
the Los Angeles FBI office communicated to FBI
headquarters what had transpired, including Lister's
claims of involvement in arming the Contras, and his
citation of ``Mr. Weekly'' as being ``CIA'' and a
``DIA subcontractor''--referring to the Defense
Intelligence Agency. (The FBI had already interviewed
a businessman to whom Lister had bragged, on Aug. 1,
that he was involved in arming the Contras, and that
his arms deals were ``CIA approved.'')

On Nov. 10, 1986, the FBI sent a teletype to various
sections of the CIA, inquiring about Lister, Blandon,
Weekly, and some others. The inquiry, over the name of
the FBI Director, asked diplomatically if any of these
individuals were ``of operational interest'' to the
CIA.

FBI documents also show that a teletype was sent to
FBI headquarters on Dec. 9, followed up by a phone
conversation with an FBI supervisor on Dec. 11--the
same day that Mark Richard spoke to the prosecutor in
Oklahoma City--who was at the time secretly preparing
his case against Scott Weekly.

In August 1987--less than a year later--Mark Richard
was required to give testimony in the Congressional
Iran-Contra investigation. While being interrogated
about various matters in which there were allegations
of Justice Department interference in Contra-related
cases, Richard was specifically questioned about
handwritten notes he had made during his Dec. 11
conversation with prosecutor Bill Price. Richard said
that Bill Hendricks of the DOJ's Public Integrity
Section, which was dealing with a lot of the
Iran-Contra matters, had previously been in touch with
Price. After examining his own notes, Richard said
that the conversation pertained to ``an individual who
had been arrested and his possible involvement in some
CIA/Contra-related activities.'' (In fact, Scott
Weekly was out of the country on Dec.

THE POWs, THE CIA  DRUGS - UGLIER TRUTHS BEHIND THE
SARIN GAS STORIES

http://www.sightings.com/political/sarincia.htm

© COPYRIGHT 1998 Michael C. Ruppert. ALL RIGHTS

C. Ruppert  From The Wilderness at www.copvcia.com.

Did the CIA order the use of Sarin gas to kill
American defectors in Southeast Asia? The answer to
that question opens a black hole of ugly truths about
U.S. foreign policy and covert operations. Those
truths all lead to a central reality, which is that
covert and paramilitary operations, as conducted by
the U.S. Government, do not exist without drug
trafficking. Equally tragic is the fact that drugs are
a main reason why POWs didn't come home. The irony on
the tragedy is that drugs were also used to fund
several sabotaged covert missions to rescue them.

The recent CNN reports on Operation Tailwind
(referenced in the last issue of From The Wilderness),
their retraction and the object lessons made of CNN
Producer April Oliver and Peter Arnett point to much
uglier and deeper truths about CIA covert operations
than the fact that CIA used nerve gas to kill
defectors and deserters in Southeast Asia. As From The
Wilderness will show, there is a high probability that
Sarin gas was used not only against defectors, but
also against unwilling prisoners of war whom the
government had decided would be a major embarrassment
if they came home alive. Testimony and evidence exists
to show that Sarin was in Laos at the time and that it
was used at or near known POW camps in Laos. If true,
those facts would shed a whole new light on the CNN
stories.

Those stories, flawed in their presentation, not only
hinted at an ongoing feud between elements of the Navy
and CIA, but came dangerously close to far more
devastating truths about the CIA's involvement in the
abandonment and murder of US servicemen left behind
after Vietnam. Those truths undeniably lead back to
the drug trade, the Central Intelligence Agency and
the covert operatives who have destroyed American
democracy.

How does one tie the convoluted pieces together in a
coherent manner? And, doing that, how does one stomach
wanton betrayal of loyal Americans and values which
are the foundation of any government's legitimacy? A
government derives its right to exist from its mandate
to protect its own people, especially those who risk
life to serve it. What legitimacy then, does a
government have which betrays and then sentences to
death those who stood in the font lines of its
exercise of power?

First, let's address the issue of whether or not CIA,
MACV-SOG and elements in the Pentagon wanted POW's
dead or, at minimum, to ensure that they never came
home?

Many of the ugliest truths about deliberate U.S.
abandonment or ordered extermination of POWs are
extremely well documented in Monika Jensen-Stevenson's
1990 bestseller, Kiss The Boys Goodbye (Dutton).
Stevenson, a former Emmy award winning Producer for
CBS News' 60 Minutes, produced mountains of eyewitness
statements, documents, and even admissions from Ronald
Reagan and other White House officials as well as from
intelligence experts in the Pentagon and the National
Security Council showing that: the U.S. knowingly left
POWs behind in Southeast Asia in 1973; the U.S.
government sabotaged at least a half dozen rescue
attempts with high probabilities for success; and
that, the U.S. government ordered covert operatives to
liquidate live POWs if sighted.

On Pages 318-323, Stevenson described a failed 1981
POW rescue mission involving the perennial covert
source (and often hard to fathom) Scott Barnes who
wrote a book about the mission entitled BOHICA (Bend
Over Here It Comes Again). After passing polygraph and
truth serum exams Barnes recounted how he had been
issued atropine (nerve gas antidote) injectors as a
prelude to entering areas in Laos where POW camps were
known to exist. He also states that, once in the
region, he was ordered to liquidate the merchandise.
Merchandise was the code word for POWs. (NOTE:
Atropine was issued to U.S. troops in the Persian Gulf
war to counter anticipated Sarin attacks by Iraq).

If Barnes' statement was not enough, his return from
the mission was immediately followed by the alleged
violent suicide of Army chemical warfare and Sarin gas
expert General Bobby Robinson. Local police doubted
the suicide findings of the military.

What's more, Robinson was known to have been involved
in moving Sarin supplies into the region at the time.
Stevenson confirmed this. Sources postulated a cover
story to Stevenson that Robinson had been planting
Sarin gas to blame the Soviets for its use and thus
motivate Congress to increase chemical warfare
budgets. Such operations are not unusual in covert
operations and are hardly grounds for a suicide. As
one source put it to me. It's much more likely that
Robinson could have exposed

U.S. Protects Al-Qaeda Terrorists in Kosovo 
by Umberto Pascali
http://globalresearch.ca/articles/PAS111A.html
 
The Executive Intelligence Review, 2 November 2001
Centre for Research on Globalisation (CRG), Montréal, 21 November 2001 



While the United States is relentlessly bombing Afghanistan with the 
official aim of getting Osama bin Laden, one of bin Laden's top collaborators is 
running a terrorist training camp in an area of Kosovo that is under U.S. 
control.
The shocking revelation has been confirmed by multiple sources: Macedonian 
intelligence agencies, as reported by several Macedonian media, including the 
leading daily Dnevnik; Russian press agencies, including Novosti and ItarTass; 
and the London Independent.
This intelligence coheres with Lyndon LaRouche's assessment of the Sept. 11 
attacks on the United States, as a strategic covert operation by an enemy within 
the U.S. and "allied" security services, for geopolitical purposes.
The Russian media quoted, as the source of their detailed revelation, the 
Russian troops stationed not far from the reported terrorist training camp. This 
is in itself exceptional, in the sense that there is hardly a precedent of the 
Russian military in Kosovo reporting events of such gravity to the leading news 
agencies.
These revelations, and the clear position taken by Macedonian intelligence in 
confirming and expanding them, are now reopening the explosive question of the 
protection and sponsorship granted to the narco-terrorists by Anglo-American 
agencies.
But this is only a small part of the new strategic geometry opened up by the 
revelations. The red-hot political point concerns the very basis for the "war 
against terrorism" launched after the war-like attacks of Sept. 11, and the 
immediate concentration on bin Laden and Afghanistan as the perpetrators of 
those attacks—and the threatened extension of the "infinite war" to Syria, Iraq, 
and so on. If the Anglo-Americans are at "war" with bin Laden's terrorism, why 
are bin Laden operatives active in Kosovo in an area totally controlled by NATO? 
Furthermore, in the U.S. zone in Kosovo? Investigations on the bin Laden 
connection into the Balkans and Kosovo could, according to experts, lead to even 
more explosive truths in a very short period of time.
Keep The Clash Going On Oct. 16 Novosti reported: "A training camp of 
Albanian militants functions near the village of Ropotovo, close to Kosovska 
Kamenica, in the Yugoslav province of Kosovo, which is controlled by the 
American force, sources from the Russian peacekeeping force in Kosovo reported 
on [Oct. 16]. According to [the sources], the camp is now training 50 Afghan and 
Algerian mujahideen, led by Zaiman Zawahiri. He is reportedly the brother of one 
of the closest associates of international terrorist Osama bin Laden. This camp 
prepares militants for terrorist formations in Kosovo and Macedonia. Their 
'instructors' are former [ethnic] Albanian officers who, in 1991-92, deserted 
from the Yugoslav Army."
The Independent reported on Oct. 21 that Interpol has linked bin Laden to 
Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) crime gangs, and that he "supplied one of his top 
military commanders for an elite KLA unit" in Kosovo.
That was only the beginning. The target of the terrorist gangs' deployment 
into Macedonia: to prevent, by violence, the return of Macedonian refugees into 
the villages "cleansed" by the KLA during this year; and to take over the water 
reserve on which the Macedonian capital, Skopje, depends.
Beyond that, these extremists are out to re-ignite the ethnic "Clash of 
Civilizations" in the Balkans, to crush the escalating resistance of 
Macedonia—which has been actively playing the LaRouche card in response to its 
national crisis (see EIR, Oct. 19)—and to continue the march of destruction, 
possibly triggering in the near future, an ethnic upheaval in Greece or 
Bulgaria.
The fact that such an operation is taking place in the middle of the "war on 
the Taliban and al-Qaeda"—the fact that NATO's Lord George Robertson, U.S. 
Ambassador James Pardew, and the European Union's Javier Solana insist, to this 
very day, that Macedonia has to surrender to the KLA ultimata, including the 
subversion of the Macedonian Constitution, opens up a dramatic contradiction. 
That contradiction throws light on the virtual reality the world has been 
propelled into after the Sept. 11 attacks.
Who Runs Al-Zawahiri? The Macedonian daily Dnevnik reported on Oct. 19 that 
the group

Any religion or organization can be used as a front to
hide ritual abuse activity, including Christianity,
Buddhism, Shamanism, Hinduism, Masonry, Mormonism,
Pagan and Satanic religions; however, not all
satanists commit crimes and not all occultism is
satanism. It is imperative that investigators and
professionals familiarize themselves with
cross-cultural belief systems so as not to target any

[CTRL] FREE PROZAC !?!

2001-11-21 Thread Agent Smiley

-Caveat Lector-

WebMD offers free Prozac

Reuters
November 16, 2001 3:27 PM PT

In what may be a sign of the times, one down-and-out
dot-com is offering free Prozac to depressed consumers
as part of a promotion by a drug company.
The Indianapolis pharmaceutical maker Eli Lilly has
teamed with money-losing Internet healthcare company
WebMD to offer Americans a free month's supply of the
famed antidepressant.

TV commercials direct consumers to the WebMD Web site
where they can sign up for one month of free Prozac
through a special promotion with Indianapolis-based
Eli Lilly, whose brand flashes up on the screen.

The direct-to-consumer advertising campaign, launched
more than six months ago, appears to have gained
momentum since Sept. 11 with more frequent television
ads and a prominent display offer on WebMD's home
page. The offer also appears with a coupon in
newspapers and magazines.

Preying on the angst in America? Absolutely not,
said Eli Lilly spokeswoman Debbie Davis. This is
aimed at patients who have already been diagnosed with
depression and have been stabilized on fluoxetine. For
them, this is another treatment option.

Both Davis and a representative for WebMD declined to
provide details about the advertising campaign.

Prozac has already lost about 80 percent of its market
share since the generic form of fluoxetine, its
chemical name, was introduced in August; Eli Lilly has
been pushing its once-a-week form of Prozac, which has
no generic-brand competition.

Sold in over 100 countries, more than 39 million
people have taken Prozac since its launch in 1988.
Despite an onslaught of competition, Prozac is still
the world's best-selling antidepressant.

Male Circumcision in the USA:

The Profoundly Disturbing and Explosive Facts

Rich Winkel [EMAIL PROTECTED]

October 23, 2001

Despite the obviously irrational cruelty of circumcision, the
profit incentive in American medical practice is unlikely to allow
science or human rights principles to interrupt the highly lucrative
American circumcision industry. It is now time for European medical
associations loudly to condemn the North American medical community
for participating in and profiting from what is by any standard a
senseless and barbaric sexual mutilation of innocent children.

Fleiss PM. MD, MPH. Circumcision. Lancet 1995;345:927[1]

Custom will reconcile people to any atrocity.

George Bernard Shaw

What is done to children, they will do to society.

Karl Menninger, MD

The American medical establishment has promoted male circumcision
as a preventative measure for an astonishing array of pathologies,
ranging from masturbatory insanity, moral laxity, aesthetics and
hygiene, to headache, tuberculosis, rheumatism, hydrocephalus,
epilepsy, paralysis, alcoholism, near-sightedness, rectal prolapse,
hernia, gout, clubfoot, urinary tract infections, phimosis, cancer
of the penis, cancer of the cervix and sexually transmitted
diseases.[2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7] But the only rationale which has clear,
well established scientific support is the one originally and openly
used by the medical establishment when medical circumcision was
introduced as a public health measure in the Victorian era. That
is, to punish and control the sexuality of male children. Victorian
doctors knew something that modern medicine has chosen to ignore:
the foreskin is at the heart of male sexuality.

A typical western medical circumcision results in the loss of
approximately 1/2 of the total surface area of the penis and between
50 and 80% or more of its erogenous sexual nerves,[8, 9, 10]
including:

o The Taylor ridged band*, the primary erogenous zone of the male
body. This unique, highly specialized and exquisitely sensitive
structure is equipped with soft ridges designed by nature to
stimulate the female's G-spot during intercourse.

o The frenulum, the highly erogenous V-shaped tethering structure
on the underside of the head of the penis.

o Between 10,000 and 20,000 specialized erotogenic nerve endings
of several types, which can feel slight variations in pressure and
stretching, subtle changes in temperature, and fine gradations in
texture.

o Thousands of coiled fine-touch receptors called Meissner's
corpuscles, which are also found in the fingertips.

Also lost are:

o The foreskin's gliding action, the non-abrasive gliding of the
shaft of the penis within its own sheath, which facilitates smooth,
comfortable and pleasurable intercourse for both partners.

 *Sometimes called the frenar band

o The immunological defense system of the foreskin, which produces
immunoglobulin antibodies and antibacterial and antiviral proteins
such as the pathogen-killing enzyme lysozyme, a potent HIV killer
which is also found in tears and mothers' milk.

o Estrogen receptors, the purpose of which is not fully understood.

o The foreskin's apocrine glands, which produce pheromones.

o The protection and lubrication of the erogenous surface of the
penis, which is designed by nature to be an internal organ like
the vagina. Natural sex involves contact between two internal
organs.[11 ]

In essence, medical male genital mutilation (MGM) is the pathologization
and treatment of the disease of male sexuality.

I was quite happy (delirious, in fact) with what pleasure I could
experience beginning with foreplay and continuing as an intact
male. After my circumcision, that pleasure was utterly gone. Let
me put it this way: On a scale of 10, the uncircumcised penis
experiences pleasure that is at least 11 or 12; the circumcised
penis is lucky to get to 3...

(From a letter to Marilyn Milos, RN, Founder/Director of NOCIRC)[12
]

[Like] wearing a condom or wearing a glove ... sight without color
would be a good analogy ... only being able to see in black and
white ... rather than seeing in full color would be like experiencing
an orgasm with a foreskin and without. There are feelings you'll
just never have without the foreskin. (Paul Tardiff, circumcised
at age 30)[12 ]

The 1999 British Journal of Urology Supplement has a study of
American women who have experienced sex with both intact and
circumcised partners. The results of the survey are truly astonishing.
Among other things, the vast majority of surveyed women indicated
that they overwhelmingly prefer

Mechanics of Brutality

Now let's examine how a typical medical circumcision is performed.

First the child, after 9 months in the fetal position, is tied down
spreadeagled and straight-backed in a circumstraint, a plastic
board molded to the outline of an infant's body, which is equipped
with velcro straps. Next he is covered with a sheet which has a
hole through which his penis is threaded. Then his penis is thoroughly
swabbed with sterilizing solution. Naturally, this frequently
provokes an erection. Some physicians deliberately provoke erections
in order to judge the cutoff line and to aid in the surgery
itself. In other words, in the infant's brand new, wide-open,
pre-verbal consciousness, this is his first sexual experience: a
torturous nightmare.[50 , 51, 52, 53, 54] Because the foreskin of
an infant is attached to the head of the penis by the same tissue
that bonds a fingernail to a finger, it must be skinned away before
it can be cut off. So the doctor forces a metal probe between the
foreskin and the head and tears apart this flesh (called synechia)
which bonds them together. Next, the doctor has several options
for the actual amputation. One commonly used device for this step
is called a gomco clamp. This essentially functions as a thumbscrew
for the foreskin. I am not making this up. By positioning the clamp
and tightening a screw, the foreskin, one of the most densely
innervated tissues of the body, is simultaneously crushed along
two lines (inner and outer foreskin) around its circumference.

The clamp is left on for a few minutes to promote blood clotting,
then the foreskin is cut off at the crush line.[55 , 56, 57]
Afterwards, the raw, bleeding, formerly internal organ is wrapped
in bandages and a diaper, and then repeatedly burned with urine
and its breakdown product, ammonia, and exposed to infectious fecal
matter while healing.

For many years the mainstream medical orthodoxy, put forth after
it was no longer acceptable to torture children in the name of
moral hygiene, was that babies don't feel pain. It wasn't until
1978 that researchers even suggested using anesthetic during
circumcision, and even today, most medical circumcisions are
performed without anesthesia, according to the AMA.[58 ] This is
in stark contrast to what is known about infant pain perception
and its profound and lasting effects on the victim, as well as the
plainly obvious reaction of the infant boy, who forcefully communicates
his torment to anyone who will look and listen. Choking and breathing
problems arise due to the continuous screaming. Surges in adrenaline
and cortisol and large increases in heart rate, all established
physiological indicators of torture, have been measured.[59 ] Some
babies appear to go into shock.[41 ] Later, problems with sleep,
mother-child bonding and breastfeeding, and increased sensitivity
to stress and pain are all commonly seen after MGM.[60 , 61, 62]
To all appearances, the infant is left in a state of post-traumatic
stress. Sometimes older boys have recurring flashbacks of their
circumcision, a classic sign of PTS.

Impaired bonding at this critical stage is well correlated with
social dysfunction and even criminality later in life, while breast
feeding is known to have many health and psychological benefits
for both the mother and the baby,[63 , 51, 52, 64] contrary to
American medical doctrine of only a few years ago.

In a definitive study of neonatal pain perception published in the
New England Journal of Medicine in 1987, the authors wrote:

Numerous lines of evidence suggest that even in the human fetus,
pain pathways as well as cortical and subcortical centers necessary
for pain perception are well developed late in gestation, and the
neurochemical systems now known to be associated with pain transmission
are intact and functional.[65 ] Research for a study on the efficacy
of various types of pain relief during circumcision, published in
the Journal of the American Medical Association in 1997, was halted
early because researchers began to question the ethics of subjecting
their placebo group to MGM without anesthesia.

Of 11 infants in the placebo group, two experienced prolonged
periods of apnea, and one infant had an episode of projectile
vomiting and a sudden lack of tone in limbs.[66 ] Other immediate
pain-related complications of infant MGM include heart injury,
pneumothorax (a stress-caused life-threatening condition involving
the introduction of air into the chest cavity), and gastric
rupture.[59 ]

You're in the Hole A CRACKDOWN ON DISSIDENT PRISONERS

by Anne-Marie Cusac

It was September 19, 2001. Elizabeth McAlister had not heard from
her husband, Philip Berrigan, in more than a week. Such silence on
Berrigan's part was most unusual, she says. Convinced that
something was wrong, she telephoned the Federal Correctional
Institution in Elkton, Ohio, where the seventy-seven-year-old peace
activist is serving a sentence of a year and a day for hammering
on a military aircraft while on probation for a similar action in
another state.

It took ten phone calls to the prison to get them to admit to me
that he was in segregation, she says. McAlister also learned that
Berrigan was being denied all phone calls and visits, even from
family members. I was not told why or for how long.

So McAlister telephoned the office of her Senator, Maryland Democrat
Barbara Mikulski. Mikulski's office called the prison and, according
to McAlister, was told that Phil was put in segregation on September
11, 2001, as a direct consequence of the attacks on the World Trade
Center and the Pentagon, [and] that this was done 'for his protection.'


But that explanation did not ring true. If Philip is in segregation
'for his protection,' why the punitive denial of visits from his
family?

McAlister wrote to Mikulski.

On September 20, Mikulski wrote her own letter--to Kathleen Hawk
Sawyer, Director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons. I would appreciate
being advised of Mr. Berrigan's status and an explanation as to
the reasoning for that status, the Senator said.

The reason Mikulski received differed markedly from the information
her own office had obtained several days earlier. The October 1
letter, from Michael B. Cooksey, Assistant Director of the Federal
Bureau of Prisons, said that Berrigan had been placed in administrative
detention for security reasons, pending a review of his case. It
added, The Warden may occasionally restrict certain privileges
afforded inmates, such as visiting and telephone calls, to ensure
the orderly running of the institution and to protect the public.

The letter also in-formed Mikulski that Berrigan's case has been
reviewed, and he was released to general population on September
21, 2001.

Additionally, his visiting and telephone restrictions have been
lifted.

In a letter to The Progressive dated October 25, Berrigan describes
his experience. On September 11, I watched appalled as the second
tower of the WTC came down. The guards called me out, took me to
the lieutenant's office, shackled and handcuffed me, and took me
to solitary. I inquired several times as to why. One guard grunted,
'Security!' During twelve days in segregation, no further daylight
was provided. One lieutenant came to announce, 'No phone, no
visitors!' And no stamps. I was locked down ten days before mailing
out letters. The result? Limbo-incommunicado.

It was perhaps Ashcroft's idea. Lock up all the naysayers, he
says.

Berrigan's hunch about Attorney General John Ashcroft may have been
right.

On October 31, the Department of Justice published new rules,
effective upon publication, that impose special administrative
measures with respect to specified inmates. The document, entitled
National Security: Prevention of Acts of Violence and Terrorism,

was signed by Attorney General John Ashcroft on October 26 and
published in the Federal Register.

Under the new rules, the Department of Justice, based on information
from the head of a federal law enforcement or intelligence agency,

will select certain prisoners for special administrative measures.

These may include housing the inmate in administrative detention

(another term for isolation) and denying that inmate correspondence,
visiting, interviews with representatives of the news media, and
use of the telephone, as is reasonably necessary to prevent the
disclosure of classified information.

Prior to these new rules, the amount of time an inmate could be
held under such conditions was limited to 120 days, although the
Department of Justice had the authority to renew the stay in
isolation. The new regulations authorize the Bureau of Prisons to
hold an inmate incommunicado for a period of time designated by
the Director [of the Bureau of Prisons], up to one year. In
addition, The rule also allows for the Director to extend the
period for the special administrative measures for additional
one-year periods, based on subsequent certifications from the head
of an intelligence agency.

The Attorney General's rationale for these actions? Where the head
of an intelligence agency has certified to

The interests behind the Bush Administration, such as the CFR,
The Trilateral Commission - founded by Brzezinski for David
Rockefeller - and the Bilderberger Group, have prepared for and
are now moving to implement open world dictatorship within the
next five years. They are not fighting against terrorists. They
are fighting against citizens. -- Dr. Johannes B. Koeppl, Ph.D.,
former German defense ministry official and advisor to former NATO
Secretary General Manfred Werner

[Brzezinski notes], quite clearly (p.53) that any nation that might
become predominant in Central Asia would directly threaten the
current U.S. control of oil resources in the Persian Gulf. In
reading the book it becomes clear why the U.S. had a direct motive
for the looting of some $300 billion in Russian assets during the
1990s, destabilizing Russia's currency (1998) and ensuring that a
weakened Russia would have to look westward to Europe for economic
and political survival, rather than southward to Central Asia. A
dependent Russia would lack the military, economic and political
clout to exert influence in the region and this weakening of
Russia would explain why Russian President Vladimir Putin has been
such a willing ally of U.S. efforts to date.

THE GRAND CHESSBOARD - American Primacy And It's Geostrategic
Imperatives, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Basic Books, 1997.

These are the very first words in the book: Ever since the
continents started interacting politically, some five hundred
years ago, Eurasia has been the center of world power. - p. xiii.

Eurasia is all of the territory east of Germany and Poland,
stretching all the way through Russia and China to the Pacific
Ocean. It includes the Middle East and most of the Indian
subcontinent. The key to controlling Eurasia, says Brzezinski, is
controlling the Central Asian Republics. And the key to
controlling the Central Asian republics is Uzbekistan. Thus, it
comes as no surprise that Uzbekistan was forcefully mentioned by
President George W. Bush in his address to a joint session of
Congress just days after the attacks of September 11 as the very
first place that the U.S. military would be deployed.

As FTW has documented in previous stories, major deployments of
U.S. and British forces had taken place before the attacks. And
the U.S. Army and the CIA had been active in Uzbekistan for
several years. There is now evidence that what the world is
witnessing is a cold and calculated war plan - at least four years
in the making - and that, from reading Brzezinski's own words
about Pearl Harbor, the World Trade Center attacks were just the
trigger needed to set the final conquest in motion.

FTW, November 7, 2001, 1200 PST - There's a quote often attributed
to Allen Dulles after it was noted that the final 1964 report of
the Warren Commission on the assassination of JFK contained
dramatic inconsistencies. Those inconsistencies, in effect,
disproved the Commission's own final conclusion that Lee Harvey
Oswald acted alone on November 22, 1963. Dulles, a career spy,
Wall Street lawyer, the CIA director whom JFK had fired after the
1961 Bay of Pigs fiasco - and the Warren Commission member who
took charge of the investigation and final report - is reported to
have said, The American people don't read.

extreme flexibility was allowed relative to the

1987 CIA William Casey dies of pneumonia following
brain surgery to remove a tumor.

1987 The General Accounting Office (GAO) completes a
two-year study of cancer statistics. The results
validate Bailar and Smith (See 1986). According to the
GAO, $2 billion per year was spent on cancer research
(more than 50% of it government funds). Depsite this
enormous expense, only slight improvement in cancer
patient survival was indicated for the 30-year period
1950-1982. The GAO study was shelved to protect the
cancer industry.

1987 Bernard J. Eastlund issued patent # 4,686,605,
based on Tesla technology, for Method and Apparatus
for Altering a Region in the Earths Atmosphere. The
patent is immediately classified by the Navy for six
years. (See 1994 and discussion of HAARP). Part of the
patent reads, this invention provides the ability to
put unprecedented amounts of power in the atmosphere
at strategic locations and to maintain the power
injection level, particularly if random pulsing is
employed and by knowing the frequencies employed in
this invention, a third party can sustain a
communications network while the rest of the world's
communications are interrupted, and could be
employed to pick up signals of others for intelligence
purposes.

1987 Centers for Disease Control (CDC) releases a
study indicating that the Hib vaccine shows an
efficacy (effectiveness) rate of 41%. Children were
found to be five times more likely to contract the
disease than those not vaccinated.

1987 Star Wars budget is 4.1 billion. Intelligence
budget $35 billion.

1987 Altantic Monthly magazine elaborates on how EM
weaponry has been developed with the ability to both
affect the nervous system and to induce death.

1987 CDC now refuses to give out figures relative to
hepatitis vaccinations and HIV+ to justify their
claims.

1987 The Philadelphia Daily News carries a story that
Colonel David L. Huxsoll, chief of the U.S. Army
Medical Research Institute for Infectious Disease
(USAMRIID) told a meeting of Soviet scientists that
Soviet charges that the U.S. military created the HIV
virus constituted disinformation.

1987 Iran-Contra Hearings. In a conversation between
Rep. Jack Brooks and Senator Inouye, Inouye declines
to answer Brooks question about FEMA and suspension of
rights in the US, deferring an answer to a closed
executive session.

1987 Project Moonscan allegedly gets under way for
prepositioning mind control technology on the Moon to
influence Earth's population. Managed by Airborn
Instrument Labs and run by Eaton Corporation. DOD
takes over management in 1988.

1987 In its own dreamworld that ignors everyone else,
the American Cancer Society on March 15th officially
announces that caught early enough, breast cancer
has cure rates approaching 100 percent. (Note: The
ACS definition of cured involves life for 5 years
after diagnosis, so early detection would in fact
artificially increase the ACS cure rate).

1987 LA policeman dies after finding CIA heroin
distribution point in LA, CA.

1987 Murder rate in the US jumps to 600:100,000.

1987 Estimated cases of rape number 910,000 in the
United States. (Based on a rate of 91,000 as a 10%

1987 Dulce Papers released.

1987 Recorded cases of syphillus jump 23 % - largest
increase since 1977.

where Loran Eugene Hall, Jr. appeared Monday to plead
guilty to drug charges.

He told the court that his father, Loran Eugene
Hall, Sr. of Mesquite was a CIA agent who recruited
him and others to manufacture speed to raise money for
the contras, said Jack Morgan, assistant U.S. attorney
for the Northern District of Oklahoma.

A CIA spokesman declined to comment Tuesday on Mr.
Hall's case.

We do not generally acknowledge the employment of
either covert or overt employees, said Mark
Mansfield, an official at CIA headquarters in McLean,
Va. I would add that the agency does not sanction
violations of U.S. law.

A federal drug conspiracy indictment handed down
in Tulsa in July names Loran Eugene Hall, Sr., 59; his
daughter, Barbara Ann Marteney, 34, of Mesquite; and
his sons, Michael Stephen Hall, 36, of Burns, Kan.,
and Loran Eugene Hall, Jr., 34, of Derby, Kan; and two
other Kansas residents. The indictment charges that
the elder Mr. Hall led the ring, which manufactured
methamphetamines between October 1987 and February
1989.

Loran Hall Jr. and Michael Hall pleaded guilty
Monday. Their father and sister remain at large.

Court documents indicate the ring was broken when
the Oklahoma State Bureau of Narcotics investigators
and Mesquite police trailed Loran Hall, Jr. after he
purchased glassware and chemicals at a Grand Prairie
chemical store.

Mr. Hall and another man were arrested in Noble
County, Okla., as they were carrying those items and
several high-caliber forearms to Kansas in a stolen
truck, according to the indictment

Mr. Morgan, a Mesquite police investigator and
defense attorney representing Hall family members all
said there was evidence suggesting that Loran Hall,
Sr. worked for the CIA in some capacity.

He has a long history of involvement with the CIA
attempts to overthrow Castro, Mr. Morgan said. He
was involved in the ill-famed Bay of Pigs invasion. In
1961, he got arrested with a truckload of guns in
Texas, and he was transporting them from California to
Florida for that invasion.

His name also has surfaced in congressional
investigations of the John F. Kennedy assassination.
The elder Mr. Hall was described in a 1979 House
Select Committee on Assassinations report as a onetime
resident of Cuba with ties to anti-Castro groups in
the United States and organized crime on both
countries.

And, Mr. Morgan said, his name is the subject of a
chapter in the book Coup d'etat in America, which
speculates about CIA involvement in a plot to kill
President Kennedy. The chapter, titled Loran Hall and
the Free Cuba Committees, details allegations of CIA
financing and orchestration of a plot by anti-Castro
groups to kill President Kennedy.

In the last few years, he supposedly was involved
with CIA attempts to overthrow the Nicaraguan
government, Mr. Morgan said.

Loran Eugene Hall, Jr. has told investigators that
his father was a 17-year CIA employee most recently
involved in running guns to Central America, Mr.
Morgan said.

The son also has told investigators about
incidents in which helicopters appeared at his
father's Kansas farm bearing men who carried automatic
weapons and answered to military titles such as
colonel and major, Mr. Morgan said.

It may be true. There's quite an extensive
history on his father's CIA involvement, Mr. Heflet
said. My client told me that a lot of his dad's
involvement, specifically in the Kennedy
assassination, has been sealed up, and we never may
find out what it was.

Mr. Morgan said federal officials believe the
elder Mr. Hall may be hiding in Kansas, Honduras or
Costa Rica.

This is a pretty strange case all around, Mr.
Morgan said.

Whistleblower on CIA Brainwashing in Canada

The Toronto Sun
Feb. 1, 1998

Montrealer Alexander Legault, who says he'll be
persecuted by the CIA if he returns to the United
States, is seeking refugee status in Canada.

by Tom Godfrey



A U.S. man who claims he'll be persecuted by the CIA
for blowing the whistle on a Montreal brainwashing
experiment is fighting to become one of the few
Americans to be granted refugee status here. Alexander
Henri Legault, 49, a Wisconsin native who has lived in
Canada for 17 years, will find out in days if he'll be
granted asylum by an Immigration and Refugee Board.
About 40 Americans yearly claim status here, but very
rarely are they accepted, immigration files show.

Legault, a Montreal food exporter who's married to a
Canadian and is the father of four children, filed his
claim in 1993 after immigration officials refused to
extend his visa. Legault and his lawyers claim he'll
be
persecuted by the CIA for obtaining documents that led
to nine Canadians being compensated $100,000 each in
1988. They were guinea pigs in brainwashing
experiments, code named MK Ultra, at Montreal's Allan
Memorial Institute in the '50s and '60s.

Legault's mother-in-law was one of the survivors of
the experiment which was made into a CBC mini-series,
The Sleep Room, that aired three weeks ago.

The experiments, headed by the late Dr. Ewen Cameron
and funded by the CIA, subjected unwitting patients to
hallucinogenic drugs, weeks of forced sleep and
massive doses of shock therapy. I can't sleep living
in limbo, Legault told The Sunday Sun. The CIA is
upset because I provided a list of their projects.

His lawyer, Richard Kurland, said MK-Ultra was one of
100 brainwashing programs the CIA funded. He said the
CIA is outraged that Legault's tip led to the
compensation of victims. The Sun has obtained
transcripts of

Legault's top-secret refugee claim, which began in
July 1996 in Montreal and wrapped up in June 1997.
Testifying under oath was former CIA
agent-turned-author Philip Agee, who's written several
books about the agency, and Ari Ben Menashe, a former
intelligence adviser to former Israeli prime minister
Yitzhak Shamir.

Agee, who recruited and ran CIA spies for 11 years in
South America,testified that he has been hounded by
the agency since he began writing books about them.
The CIA will retaliate if someone does them harm,
Agee testified.

Menashe, 45, now a Canadian citizen, testified in June
last year that he flew twice to Virginia, to meet
retired U.S. admiral Stansfield Turner,who was the CIA
director under former president Jimmy Carter. He said
Turner, now a consultant, agreed to help with the case
for $50,000, but Legault refused to pay.

William Schaap, 57, an expert witness on the CIA,
testified that the MK-Ultra experiment was one of the
most frightening ever conducted by the CIA. The agency
had a fundamental disregard for the value of human
life, a U.S. Senate committee said of the experiment.
Schaap testified that the CIA had infiltrated the U.S.
and Canadian communist parties, and owned 100 media
organizations worldwide. It also experimented with
hundreds of chemical and biological testing
programs, which saw a cold virus spread over San
Francisco in the '50s, exposed whooping cough in
Tampa, Fla, in 1955 and a cold bacteria in the New
York subway system in 1966, Schaap testified.
