A few years ago, Charles Grodin, on his CNBC show, was just musing about things, as he often does. He got into the subject of aliens and said that he was curious but very skeptical about the whole thing. He then said that a few weeks prior he had lunch with (then)Senator Bill Bradley. I forget how, but the subject of aliens came up and Charles Grodin asked the Senator about Roswell. To his amazement, he said that Bill Bradley told him point blank "Sure it's true. I know several people in the government who have seen the bodies, though I haven't myself." He also told Grodin that many people in the government know about it; that it is "common knowledge" that just "isn't discussed" openly. -- What If --?

[CTRL] Dark foundations of the New World Order 2/2
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- http://thenewamerican.com/tna//1999/03-01-99/newage.htm Creme himself travels and lectures all over the world, while his organization, Share International, promulgates the Gospel According to Maitreya. Share Internationals newsletter of the same name is advertised as "a monthly magazine, bringing together the two major directions of New Age thinking the political and the spiritual." Each issue includes articles ranging from globalist politics and finance to occult phenomena such as UFO sightings. Also featured is a message from the Master (Maitreya), which, it is claimed, is communicated telepathically via Benjamin Creme. Another luminary in the contemporary New Age firmament is Maurice Strong, Canadian multimillionaire and grand panjandrum of the global environmentalist movement. Strong has been pivotal in bringing about a confluence of two major streams of globalist subversion: radical environmentalism and New Age worship. In 1992, Strong chaired the UN Conference on the Environment and Development (the "Earth Summit") in Rio de Janeiro. The wacky folks comprising the fringe elements present at the conference including ritual drummers seeking to heal the earth and worshipers of the Brazilian sea goddess "mae orixa" were treated by the press as harmless nuts, having little to do with the serious agenda of the conference participants. In reality, however, New Age themes such as worship of the earth (or "Gaia") as a Mother Goddess, pantheism, and an interest in aboriginal religious traditions such as Native American shamanism, are all dominant mainstream topics in present environmentalist circles. We cannot hope to provide exhaustive coverage of every aspect of the New Age in the scope of this article. Suffice it to say that the New Age movement at the close of the 20th century is a far-reaching agglomerate of rather diverse interests and groups, embracing not only theosophy, the Maitreya cult of personality, and much of environmentalism, but also Wicca (witchcraft), voodoo, magic, and more recent phenomena such as the bizarre annual "burning man" festival held in the Nevada desert. The doctrines and language of the New Age, much of which was introduced by Blavatsky and her disciples, permeates todays popular culture. Who is not familiar with gurus, karma, holistic medicine, meditation, yoga, and so forth? Who hasnt seen best-selling books by the likes of Shirley Maclaine and Deepak Chopra? Our discourse, music, television, and educational institutions are all steeped in New Age culture. We have already seen that much of the contemporary New Age movement is closely intertwined with politics, particularly the United Nations and global environmentalism. It is crucial for patriotic Americans to understand that much of the New Age phenomenon is not accidental, but is instead being carefully and deliberately promoted by the globalist power elites. Why is this being done? A partial answer was provided by Samuel Insanally, past president of the UN General Assembly, during a 1994 UN briefing of NGOs (non-governmental organizations) affiliated with the UN: Old policies and strategies, which we have promoted in the past at the United Nations, have led us nowhere. Although I am not a "religious" person I do believe that the construction of a New World Order requires a sense of moral obligation on the part of all nations which will give flesh to the concept of interdependence. We need in effect a spiritual catalyst to bring about change. The ethic of national self-interest must yield to the ethic of co-operation within the larger family of nations. In other words, the globalist Insiders, recognizing that all societies and governments ultimately are rooted in religious traditions, have seen the need for providing a religious foundation for a global society under a global government. That religion is to be New Age. Understandably, then, the United Nations is regarded by many of its devotees as an essentially religious organization. Robert Muller, former UN Assistant Secretary-General, enthused that "if Christ came back to earth, his first visit would be to the United Nations to see if his dream of human oneness and brotherhood had come true." Tourists at the UN may visit the Meditation Room, a New Age chapel designed by the late UN Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjold and maintained by the Lucis Trust. The UNs Society for Enlightenment and Transformation has brought to the UN every imaginable species of New Age crank, from "channelers" to UFO enthusiasts. Its president, Mohammed Ramadan, has said: "As international civil servants, we often feel our colleagues are here by divine appointment to serve the world through the United Nations Our societys role is to further this divine service by serving the servers, teaching them and inspiring them, whether here in the headquarters or in the field."

It takes away individuality and makes us subservient slaves to the NWO.. New Age Roots by Steve Bonta http://thenewamerican.com/tna//1999/03-01-99/newage.htm Dark foundations of the New World Order On the southern edge of Madras, Indias fourth largest city, nestled between the sea and one of the citys busiest boulevards, is a sprawling, well-wooded compound known locally as Adyar. For more than 100 years, Adyar has been the international headquarters of the Theosophical Society, a worldwide organization dedicated to the promotion of Eastern religious thought and the occult. Nowadays, Adyar is chiefly famous among Madrassis for its large banyan tree, reputedly the worlds largest. But more than a century ago, this quiet park witnessed the beginning of a movement that today claims tens of thousands of adherents worldwide, and enjoys the attention of the worlds power elite at the United Nations, the World Bank, and other centers of political and financial power in the United States and Europe. Its influence is felt in Americas public school classrooms, public and private universities, thousands upon thousands of misguided churches and synogogues, and in the varied outlets of our nations popular culture. Collectively, the worldwide movement born at Adyar is called New Age, and its insidious roots now cling tenaciously to the fabric of our society. Mother of this devilish creation was the Russian occultist Helena Petrovna Blavatsky. Born Helena Petrovna in Ekaterinoslav, Russia in 1831, the girl who was to become the most famous occultist of the 19th century showed an early interest in magic and the supernatural. At the age of 18, following an impetuous marriage to Nikifor Blavatsky, a government official more than twice her age, Helena Blavatsky ran away from her husband and embarked on a series of worldwide wanderings. Her travels apparently took her across Europe to the New World, where she wandered through Latin America as well as Canada and the United States. Eventually her travels led her to the Indian Subcontinent, where pagan and occult religion in every conceivable form flourished like nowhere else. For a number of years, she traveled about India in obscurity. She later claimed that she spent a significant time in Tibet at a secret monastery where she received arduous training in the magic arts. At the same time, she later wrote, she was initiated into a worldwide network of adepts who practiced what she called "the secret doctrine" or "the wisdom religion." She also claimed to have been contacted and given direction by two "Ascended Masters," superhuman beings belonging to an exalted hierarchy of demigods who secretly guided the affairs of humanity. According to Blavatsky, these Ascended Masters worked in concert with certain human adepts individuals with highly developed occult powers, who generally nurtured their secret arts in the worlds remotest places, unknown to the rest of humanity. Blavatsky related that she was first contacted by the "Masters" in London by a dashing Indian prince dressed in the garb of a Rajput warrior, who called himself "Morya." Morya told Blavatsky that she had been selected to play a part in the revival and public promotion of the secret occult tradition, which had lain hidden for centuries in secret monasteries and libraries in the remotest reaches of the Himalayas. Accordingly, Blavatsky spent a number of years in the Himalayas, interacting with both mortals and "Masters," who (she wrote) instructed her in the ways of the occult and taught her the keys to unlocking the mysteries of the secret doctrine. Finally, her training completed, according to her account, Blavatsky traveled back to Europe, including her native Russia, where she quickly acquired celebrity for her alleged supernatural powers. She claimed to have the ability to converse with unseen beings, to read sealed letters, to cause objects to become unnaturally heavy, to conjure objects out of thin air, to know of distant events taking place, and so forth. While she apparently made believers out of her family, friends, and many others, her public life was dogged by controversy. She was accused of charlatanism and immoral conduct. It was alleged that she had fabricated her stories of travel in India and Tibet, having instead spent years in the Parisian demimonde, where she had gradually developed the idea of passing herself off as a mystic. Whatever the truth of these allegations, Helena Blavatsky threw herself into promoting an interest in the occult with missionary zeal. She traveled to America, where she found a particularly receptive climate for her claims of occult powers. America in the 1870s was undergoing a surge of public interest in occult phenomena, such as "spirit rappings" and seances. Taking up residence in New York City,

Those who count the votes decide everything." Communist Tyrant Josef Stalin February 2, 2000 NA (Network America) E-wire Pre-Election Polls 20% OFF on McCain's final total Yesterday our e-wire said, The TV Networks were careful to be careful. They did not call the GOP race for quite a while after the polls closed, as opposed to the instant call usually made -- and which "instant calls" we believe will be made again in the coming 100% computer counted states. In the above sentences, we should have said that the networks did not call the DEMOCRATIC race for quite a while as they did call the GOP race at 7 PM as the polls close. It still holds true that the Networks did NOT call any percentages until the real numbers came in. Also, the final result between Gore and Bradley was 52% to 47%. Now, in years past the Big TV Networks called MANY elections, AS THE POLLS CLOSED, by a margin of as close as 51% to 49% --- when computers were counting the votes. Clearly the networks were gun-shy in this handcounted state to call any percentages or even call the race until about 9 PM after a trend of real numbers were coming in. On the basis of this, we must say that in New Hampshire there are so few polling places (I believe 600 or so) that Voter News Service could conceivably have exit pollers at 60 or even 100 of them, and therefore get an actual read if it is not a close race. Since McCain ended up beating Bush by 5 to 3 --- it must be conceded that the exit polls did allow the Networks to call such a wide margin accurately in this small state. Remember, we do not hold that all elections are fixed or that polls cannot possibly be right; what we do say is that in any given race, especially close races, pre-election public opinion polls can be way off (the pre-election polls on McCains totals in NH last night were a FULL 20% off of the actual totals), and that exit polls can also be way off witness the wrong call all four networks made in New Hampshire on Buchanan in the 1992 primary and Sen. Smith in the1996 general election. Needless to say, in a computer generated state with no checks or balances ANY close election could be tilted the other way, and even a not so close could be reversed. More tomorrow.

[CTRL] NASA Acknowledge Sunspot/Solar Flare Connection, Gives Warning
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- It should also be mentioned that among the effects of the electromagnetism of solar flares can be damage to the power grid, satellites, electromagnetic equipment. Alfred = NASA Acknowledge Sunspot/Solar Flare Connection, Gives Warning..02/07/00 by Mitch Battros (ECTV) This is a good news - bad news story. The good news - NASA appears to have made the choice to reveal pertinent information regarding solar activity. Let's hope it last! The bad news - NASA is now disclosing the severity of the current solar events and those yet to come. Note: For reasons unknown, NASA changed February 5th's M-Class flare reading to a more powerful X-Class flare without indicating such on any of its satellite sites. Is it possible there is indeed a struggle deep within NASA's walls? Is it possible there are some high up with enough influence to change NASA's direction of public relations? Or, is there recent independent data ready to be disclosed? :-)) NASA has come forward with a statement that suggest their acknowledgment of a sunspot/solar flare connection. This is evident by the title of their article below. NASA seems to be puzzled by the enormous X-Class flare which occurred during a high, but lower than expected sunspot count of 138. Today's sunspot count has already risen to 174. I am expecting double the count of the predicted "apex" of 150 by late next month. As stated in my article written yesterday, expect extreme or even recorded breaking weather, now within 48 hours. Equation: Sunspots = Solar Flares = Magnetic Shift = Shifting Ocean and Jet Stream Current = Extreme Weather Small Sunspot, Big Flare...02/07/00 NASA -- One of the brightest solar flares of the current cycle erupted this weekend from a relatively small sunspot group. This weekend a major solar flare erupted on the northeast limb of the Sun at 1928 UT on February 5. According to data from the NOAA Space Environment Center, it was one of the largest and brightes optical flares of the current solar cycle. The eruption was bright across the electromagnetic spectrum. It registered the maximum rating of "B" (for brilliant) on the 3-level scale of optical intensity for solar flares. At X-ray wavelengths the Earth-orbiting GOES 8 satellite also detected a bright surge that put the flare in the most powerful X-Class. Large flares like this one can emit up to 1032 ergs of energy. This energy is ten million times greater than the energy released from a volcanic explosion. Solar flares become more common during sunspot maximum. The current sunspot cycle is slated to peak in mid-2000, and remain high for at least a year. Just after the solar flare, the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) recorded a dramatic coronal mass ejection (CME) traveling approximately 500 kilometers per second away from the Sun. The ejected material did not appear to be headed for Earth. However, if this sunspot group produces more coronal mass ejections in the coming week, they could become Earth-directed as the active region rotates across the Sun's central meridian.

[CTRL] Forging Fingerprints Made Easy w/FBI Memo
Who Shot Mrs. Menke? Part One of a Three Part Series by Arkansas Chronicle by Tom Winters, with J. D. Capeheart and Larry Davis Part One - February 5, 2000 - Copyright (c) 2000 Arkansas Chronicle, All Rights Reserved from www.ar-chronicle.com The crime scene was not terribly unusual as crime scenes go. When family members found Mrs. Menke, a harmless and well-loved stuffed toy monkey lying on the floor beside the crib, she failed to identify her attacker. A few feet away lay the weapon she had obviously been shot with: a Daisy pellet gun. Never much to talk, Mrs. Menke is still of no use when it comes to describing who shot her, or why. The only clues detectives have to work with: those curious epidermal ridges or friction ridges and islands; the impressions left on the weapon we commonly call fingerprints. And in solving the case of Mrs. Menke, only one clear fact will emerge: the fingerprint, as a positive means of identifying a culprit in a criminal case, should never have been trusted absolutely as a means of solving a crime. Police across America cannot tell how many cases are have been solved over the previous century using the humble fingerprint. They are countless. Neither can police tell how many innocent men and women have been made victims over the last century by fraudulent or forged fingerprints. Since its discovery as a law enforcement tool the fingerprint has proven invaluable as a unique means of positively identifying individual human beings. Volumes of scholarly papers and countless court opinions have been written in the last 100 years regarding the subject of fingerprints. To almost every degree of certainty your fingerprints are unique to you. Not even identical twins share the same prints. But just because your fingerprints appear on an object, a piece of paper or even a murder weapon does that mean you handled it? According to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, in a piece written in the late 1890s, the answer is clearly no. With his fictional Adventure of The Norwood Builder, Doyle opened a world of real-life intrigue and fraud. For over 100 years, the key players have been national law enforcement and intelligence agencies. And the game they have played is insidious. It was author R. Austin Freeman, in 1907, who first described in rich detail, the process whereby a fingerprint might be forged and placed on anything. His novel, The Red Thumb Mark, is a unique work. It is a how-to manual rich in details on the dark art of fingerprint forgery and the mischief that a forged fingerprint can lead to. Scientist Henry Faulds is credited by many as being one of the creators of fingerprint science, (although the current debate among experts is that it is actually an art). In a work entitled, On The Skin-Furrows Of The Hand, published in the journal Nature on October 28, 1880, Faulds described in detail the manner by which print samples are obtained and examined. I have succeeded in making very delicate impressions on glass. They are somewhat faint indeed, but would be usefull for demonstrations, he wrote. These might be shown by magic lantern, Faulds explained, as a means of displaying them to large audiences. Today, the science or art of fingerprinting is a fertile ground in which law enforcement and commercial enterprises are racing to see who will be the first to make the fingerprint a universal biometric identifier. Some states have used a fingerprint impression for years to verify identities on Drivers Licenses. But can a process described by Doyle, and explained in graphic detail in a 60s era FBI field office memo derail the fingerprint train? Possibly, for fingerprint forgery is so easy as to nearly defy belief. With a latent lift or a formal sample of your prints even a novice operator can easily reproduce a three-dimension replica of your print in less time than it takes to read the morning paper. And once that person has a forged copy of your print, you are completely at their mercy as the strange saga of Mrs. Menke will demonstrate. Your fingerprints can be placed on anything: a child pornography magazine, a smoking gun or the thigh of a rape-murder victim. If youve ever been fingerprinted for a drivers license, a job, a professional license, for military service or for an arrest, your prints are available to a prospective forger. If not, and if you are targeted, your prints can still be forged by way of a latent lift from an object you have handled. With the FBI digitizing all fingerprints in its inventory and most states doing the same, access to your prints will be only as difficult as keying your name into a computer. Although they are going hi-tech, fingerprints have been a linchpin in the justice system in America since the early 1900s.

Orlin Grabbe/A -- The Search for Beautiful Teeth Las Vegas Prostitutes Eagerly Await Dentists' Convention Innovations in cavity filling. LAS VEGAS--With the New Jersey Dental Association's annual convention less than one week away, excitement is building among the city's prostitutes. The four-day event, which will bring some 1,500 New Jersey dentist-johns to the Las Vegas MGM Grand Hotel, is expected to pump an estimated $75,000 into the local streetwalking economy. "This is the big one," pimp Marlon "The Pearl" Evans said. "We don't see this kind of action from anyone else all year--the electronics-industry convention, the auto show, insurance seminars, no one. The average car dealer or pet-store owner in town for a convention might treat himself to a piece if he thinks he can spare it, but he doesn't have what we in the business call 'dentist money.'" "The dentists' convention is where we pull out all the stops," said Lucy Calhoun, owner of Juicy Lucy's, a popular Vegas-area brothel. "The average dentist has an unusual combination of cash and low self-esteem that makes him an ideal customer." Across the city, prostitution-sector employees are scrambling to make last-minute preparations for the anticipated rush. Madams are breaking in new girls, pimps are setting out extra strings of whores, and bordellos are putting up partitions in the pool rooms and throwing extra mattresses on the billiard tables. Most prostitutes will pull longer shifts beginning Wednesday in preparation for an expected 200 percent increase in tricks. "I'm definitely going to have to put in some overtime when those dentists hit town," area hooker Candi Walters said. "I swear, when those guys were here last year, my feet hardly touched the floor for about four days straight." Prostitutes have long known that the average dentist, while earning almost $60,000 per year, is not generally respected by the public at large. Neither an admired craftsman nor a full-fledged member of the medical community, the dentist, more than anyone short of the chiropractor, uses conventions as an opportunity to purchase emotional gratification in the form of sex. If previous years' figures hold true to form, Las Vegas prostitutes can expect to serve an average of 15 dentists per day during the four-day convention. And while some dentists may request special treatment--such as bondage, menage a trois, or unusually young girls--sex-trade insiders say a majority of services rendered will likely consist of half-hour sessions of conventional, one-on-one, missionary-position intercourse. "It's strange, really," said Cherry Caldwell, who will be working her seventh NJDA convention. "Most guys want something a little kinky when they come to Vegas--something they can't get from their wives or girlfriends. But not the dentists. It's almost as if it's enough for them just to have sex with a girl." "All in all, the dentists tend to be a pretty conservative bunch," prostitute Sapphire Jones said. "A lot of them do like to talk dirty, though. They'll say stuff like, 'I'm gonna drill a few holes,' or 'This won't hurt a bit, baby.' And when you suck them off and they come, they love to tell you to spit." "They really respond to Las Vegas' unique energy," said MGM Grand hospitality director Patrick Worthington. "There's just something about this town's $3 all-you-can-eat prime-rib specials, cheap drinks, and easy, 24-hour access to a wide variety of prostitutes that just says 'dentist.'" The NJDA dentists agreed. "Look out, Vegas," said convention organizer and Mahwah, NJ, orthodontist Harold Stemmer. "The dentists are coming to town to fill a few cavities, if you know what I mean, and there are some lucky girls out there who are going to be a few dollars richer if they play their cards right."

VIENNA - The diplomatic sanctions and protests against the new conservative government of Austria have reinforced a view by many abroad that Joerg Haider's xenophobic Freedom Party is the reincarnation of the fascist movement that brought the dictators Hitler and Mussolini to power in the 1920s and 1930s. Here in Austria, however, even Mr. Haider's opponents have mixed feelings about his party and the backlash against it. Many Austrians are disturbed by his far-right party achieving power, because its anti-foreigner sentiments echo the Nazis' racism and because Mr. Haider's commitment to democracy is open to question. Still, Austrians are even more alarmed by the reaction in Europe and the United States, which they believe will only boost support for Mr. Haider's xenophobic movement, according to political commentators and other observers here.

COLOMBIA A VIETNAM FOR THE NEW MILLENNIUM
I may be dating myself, but whatever happened to the "Vietnam Syndrome"? After
watching the a US helicopter rescuing the last Americans from what used to be
the US embassy in Saigon and collectively gasping at the sight of it taking
off just barely before the Red Hordes closed in the American people were
supposed to be wary of ever getting bogged down in another malarial swamp,
fighting Commies and pretending we were "winning." The Vietnam war tore a
nation asunder, brought down two Presidents, and would have ripped the social
fabric to shreds if the US hadn't hightailed it out of there. In the end,
everybody was against that war not only the hippies and Commies in our midst,
who waved NLF flags and chanted "victory to the Vietcong" in the streets of
American cities, but also Richard Nixon, who campaigned on a platform of
"Vietnamization" and eventually negotiated with the North Vietnamese. As the
impossibility of winning a land war in Asia became all too apparent, the chorus
demanding US withdrawal began to be heard on the right as well as the left and
the center: even John Birch Society founder Robert Welch, who had earlier
demanded "victory," came to believe that the war was a cleverly laid trap which
the US had been pushed into by our liberal elites. The New Left and the
Birchers may have hated each other but not so passionately as they hated the
technocratic liberals who got us into that war. For years thereafter, that
hatred persisted. On the left, it gave birth to a reflexive distrust of
military intervention, and on the right it invigorated an already healthy
skepticism of all government action, including especially in the post-cold
war era overseas military action.
MANKIND A DULL PUPIL
But time blurs the tragic lessons of history, and so they are endlessly
repeated the second and third and fourth times as farce, parody, and
pastiche, respectively. By 1991, with the Gulf War in full swing, President
George Bush was exultantly proclaiming: "By God, we've kicked the Vietnam
Syndrome once and for all!" But that distinction does not belong to Bush: the
credit must go to Bill Clinton, the man who made imperialism popular with a
generation brought up on the slogan "make love, not war." Now that many of them
can't make love like they used to, yesterday's flower children have turned into
post-millennial warmongers all in the name of "humanitarianism," of course.
Kosovo was their holy war, and now they turn their sights on Austria, the
Caucasus, Russia, and even Colombia the one nation on earth where the analogy
to Vietnam is the closest.
IT'S DEJA VU ALL OVER AGAIN
I turn to a discussion of how and why the US is slowly sinking into the
Colombian quagmire with a strange sense of detachment, and despair at the
seemingly invincible self-destructiveness of Homo sapiens. Are we lemmings, or
is there some higher meaning or purpose in the suicidal pattern of events
unleashed by our mindlessly interventionist foreign policy? Today the Clinton
administration is unveiling its $1.3 billion plan to fight drug-dealing leftist
insurgents and shore up the shaky government of President Andres Pastrana. Here
is a country that has everything Vietnam had jungle, Marxist rebels, grinding
poverty with a post-millennial twist being the drug connection. This massive
infusion of military aid and equipment reflects Washington's growing commitment
to crushing the 40-year-old guerrilla insurgency and establishing an American
beachhead in South America. But why Colombia, and why now?
THE PHONY WAR ON DRUGS
Before I go any further, let us put aside the hypocritical and completely
unconvincing rhetoric about the "War on Drugs" nobody but nobody believes a
word of it. If we have to pour billions into every Third World hellhole that
cultivates illegal drugs and markets them to US consumers, then we will have to
invade all of South America, as well as large parts of Asia. Is the bipartisan
coalition backing the Colombian adventure prepared to launch such a global war?
What utter nonsense. No, our deepening intervention in Colombia has nothing to
do with waging a war on drugs and everything to do with ensuring that important
US corporations, such as America Online Time-Warner, involved in commercial
ventures dependent on regional stability, have their investments protected
with a little help from American taxpayers. When the President of the New York
Stock Exchange, Richard Grasso, travels to the isolated jungle hamlet of La
Machaca to meet with Paul Reyes, Colombia's chief guerrilla commandante, what
else are we to make of it?
A JUNGLE DIALOGUE
It was a remarkable occasion: Grasso and Reyes met for two and a half hours.
What did they talk about? The Associated Press reported

A crowd of citizens, both for and against the death penalty, were gathered for a vigil prior to the Texas execution of convicted killer Billy Hughes Jr. This execution marked the seventh of the month, the 117th of George W. Bush's tenure. Suddenly, reports the Houston Press, when "six cheerleaders and a makeshift marching band came prancing around the corner belting out 'When the Saints Come Marching In,' it was clear that number 117 was not routine. In pigtails, letter sweaters and red-pleated skirts, the fresh-faced drill team chanted, "We are Texas" and "Go, George, Go." As the antis struggled to maintain their circle vigil, the pros turned into fans at a football game." Here is what they shouted: "Fire up, fire up Fire up, and up And up and up and up! Two bits, four bits, six bits, a dollar All for the death penalty stand up and holler! P, P-O, P-O-W-E-R We've got power Woo! Killing power! The pros were saying, "We didn't do this !"

[CTRL] The Search for Mr. Big
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- An excerpt from Of Grass and Snow Hank Messick©1979 Prentice Hall ISBN 0-13-630558-X 190pps. First edition -- - --Escandar, of course, was a friend of Hernandez-Cartaya, who was a friend of Dick Fincher, who was a friend of Bebe Rebozo, who was a friend of Richard Nixon, who once told John Dean he could get a million dollars in cash: "I know where it could be gotten," he added. "It is not easy, but it could be done." - 11 THE SEARCH FOR MR BIG The natural tendency of the press to seek a "Mr. Big" in crime is offset to some extent by the reluctance of many investigators to cooperate in such a meaningful endeavor. The professional-be he a cop, a federal agent, a congressional committee staffer-is painfully aware of the problems that arise when one begins to approach the executive level of crime. If the target is really a big shot, he has to have important political and financial connections. It is safer, unless you have solid support for your organization, to suppress your hunter's instinct and play games instead with La Cosa Nostra. If, however, circumstances require some effort, it is simpler to credit an already established "star" who is unreachable anyway, a Frank Costello or Meyer Lansky, than it is to try to figure out the details of a new, emerging hierachy and hidalgo. All of which Rhode Island law-enforcement agencies discovered in August 1977, when a little mystery became a big one. The strange saga of "the rusty old fishing vessel" named Dorchester began on August 4, when a bird watcher spotted it off Beavertail Point in Narragansett Bay north of Newport, Rhode Island. Two days later it was still sitting there, so the Coast Guard was notified. Other agencies were informed, the press learned about the "mystery ship," and the forlorn old boat began receiving visitors. Colombian natives were aboard. Through an interpreter provided by a newspaper they told an intriguing story. The Dorchester, they said, sailed from Santa Marta, Colombia, with a new crew in July. None of the eleven crewmen knew each other-they were an hired individually by a Jamaican named Tony. According to Tony, the ship was going to Canada to be equipped with fishing gear. The crewmen were promised a return ticket home from Canada if they wanted it. Off Rhode Island a fuel leak developed. Tony, as captain, brought the ship into the landlocked bay-and left it there. He departed in a small skiff to get fuel and took with him all the ship's papers. It sounded suspicious. Customs and the Coast Guard searched the vessel thoroughly. Nothing exciting was found. Arrangements were made to tow the boat to a safe anchorage between Goat and Conanicut islands. One of the crewmen found the gas leak and fixed it, but no one seemed to know what to do next. On August 14, about 1:00 P.m., a blond, bearded young man appeared at Murphy's Marine in Newport and wanted to buy five thousand gallons of fuel for the Dorchester. Murphy told him he'd have to bring the ship to the gas pumps, since he lacked means to transport the fuel to it. The blond rounded up a local fisherman, Tom Collins, and he gave him some new hundred-dollar bills out of "a fat wallet." He was in a hurry, the stranger explained, with a plane to catch. Collins got clearance from the Coast Guard and boarded the vessel. When he asked the crewmen how they expected to pay for the fuel, they showed him a box filled with hundred-dollar bills, which, they said, they had found under their missing captain's bed. (It hadn't been there earlier when the ship was searched.) Collins estimated it contained $10,000. Before Collins could take the boat to Murphy's Marine, the Coast Guard rescinded its clearance and demanded the crew pay a $1,500 fine for entering U.S. waters without reporting to Customs within twenty-four hours of their arrival. Again the mysterious box was produced, the cash counted out, and refueling proceeded$3,000 worth. Collins piloted the boat out of the bay and was put off at midnight near the Brenton lighthouse. The Dorchester, he assumed, was heading back to Colombia. All very mysterious. Came Sunday night, August 14, and in the city of Warwick on the east side of the upper bay police were investigating some car thefts. While talking to suspects they learned there was "something going on with narcotics" at the Carlton House Motor Inn near the airport. A raid was mounted. In a downstairs room they found thirty pounds of grass, part of a larger bale. Upstairs in another room they found five men, four handguns, and keys to motel rooms in several adjoining communities. Business was brisk-even as they investigated, a car drove up with two people in it. The people had a briefcase containing $169,000 and eight ounces of cocaine. The telephone rang and someone asked if they could buy some grass. The police said yes, and when a car containing three buyers arrived, more arrests were made. On the

First/only edition -- Out-of-print - 2 In law enforcement as in life, things are seldom what they seem. As the war on heroin continued, the younger men tended to see it as an exciting game of cops and robbers. Others bought the theory that H was a scourge and should be eliminated. Some others, men who had worked under Anslinger, were convinced drugs were but a weapon in the hands of the "International Communist Conspiracy." The story of Joaquim Him Gonzales, chief of air control at Panama's international airport, illustrates. BNDD became sure Him controlled the passage of narcotics through the airport and persuaded a Dallas grand jury to indict him. A softball game in the Canal Zone was arranged, and when Him arrived to watch the game on February 6, 1971, he was arrested and whisked away by air force jet to Texas, where he was convicted and sentenced to prison. In Washington everyone was happy. Some thought it a coup for Nixon, who needed the arrest of a foreign trafficker to give his international drug campaign credibility. Others felt it a victory against drug addiction. And a third group rejoiced because the episode almost wrecked negotiations for a new canal treaty. These men considered proposals for turning the canal over to Panama a communist plot. To wreck the proposed treaty was their goal, and if it could be done by turning the tables on an alleged narcotics trafficker, so much the better. Nixon's goal was, so everyone assumed, obvious. He had won election on a law-and-order platform. If he was to be reelected, then he had to have a track record of successful law enforcement. True enough. Yet a man may sometimes combine business and politics. The war on heroin scored again in 1971 when a new government in Turkey agreed to suspend poppy cultivation temporarily in return for compensation to the farmers. It cost the United States $35 million, but the episode was hailed as a great victory. Another blow at Grupo Frances was struck when Auguste Ricord was indicted by a grand jury in New York. He happened to be operating in Paraguay at the time. Police there arrested him, but insisted that extradition procedures must be followed. The man being hailed as the "international drug czar" had enough money and influence to stall all efforts to bring him to trial. One plan to kidnap him came to light and was frustrated. Finally, some seventeen months later, Nixon sent Nelson Gross, his Coordinator for International Narcotics Affairs, to Paraguay with a secret message to that nation's dictator. Whatever the message, it was effective. Ricord's extradition was suddenly approved, and on September 1, 1972, Ricord was flown by chartered jet to New York accompanied by ten guards, a doctor, and two nurses. Bond was promptly set at $1.5 million. Gross, a New Jersey politician, rejoiced. Ricord, he said, was "probably the highest-placed narcotics trafficker ever indicted . . . he's among the top ten or so in the world on a loose board of directors." A few months later Gross was indicted and convicted of conspiracy to bribe and tax evasion. His part in the great crusade was finished. Despite the victories, the reported number of addictions kept rising, as did the crime rate in general, and the President was unable to make the BNDD under Ingersoll go after the street pusher. Across the country, so-called task forces were set up, consisting of a few federal agents and a lot of local police. Their aim was to make street arrests and thus build the statistics Nixon needed for political purposes. One such task force in New York City was headed by a BNDD veteran of Eagle, Gerard Miller. None too happy to be in a crowded, crumbling Manhattan bossing a bunch of third-grade policemen, Miller didn't get overly excited when Detective Joseph Kowalsky, 130 Clarkson Street, reported he was suspicious of one of his neighbors, a black man named Matthews. A check of police files revealed only that Matthews had been a chicken thief in Durham. "That's about our speed," growled Miller. It was May 18, 1971, and the feds were finally on the trail of the man they would call "the black Lansky." Unable to resolve the conflicts between Customs and BNDD, impatient with the pace of the campaign against heroin, Nixon followed tradition by creating a new agency to achieve what the existing bureaucracy had failed to accomplish. On January 28, 1972, he issued an executive order creating ODALEOffice for Drug Abuse Law Enforcement. Inspiration for ODALE was a memo written by Gordon Liddy, a memo Nixon called "brilliant." Details were worked out by John Ehrlichman, assistant to the President; Egil Krogh, assistant to Ehrlichman; and Myles Ambrose, head of Customs. Howard Hunt served as consultant. Ambrose, his eye still on the day when Hoover would die, became director of the new

[CTRL] [9] Treason's Peace
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- an excerpt from: Treason's Peace Howard Watson Armbruster©1947 A Crossroads Press Book Beechurst Press New York 438 pps. -- First/Only Edition -- Out-of Print --[9]-- CHAPTER IX Democrats Facing Both Ways EARLY IN MARCH 1942 six distinguished-looking gentlemen were seated around a conference table in one of the high-ceilinged rooms of that architectural monstrosity, the Treasury Building. One of those present was contending earnestly that the Americanization of General Aniline Film Corp. had been assured, first, by the election of Judge Mack as president, and later by the appointment of other well-known Americans as directors. The speaker droned on and on. Finally, he was interrupted by Leo T. Crowley, long time head of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, who said, "See here, Homer, we're all grown up-you know, and everyone else knows that John Mack, splendid citizen that he is, is not the man to head General Aniline." Thus rebuffed, Homer S. Cummings, counsel for General Aniline, cut short his argument for inaction, and the meeting proceeded with its business of approving the new four-man board of directors for General Aniline which the Treasury had agreed upon. Mr. Cummings had good reason to plead for a status quo. The new Treasury-appointed board could not be expected to con tinue his retainer as Washington attorney (rumored to be $100,000 a year) which had been arranged by the old Farben board. In this connection, and as another example of how precisely the Farben pattern repeats, it is interesting to look back to the time when the I. G. Dyes crowd hired John King, former national committeeman from Connecticut to help Attorney General Harry Daugherty give back the German properties that had been seized during World War I. Then, some two decades later, when it again became advisable to take on some additional help in Washington- this time to prevent another seizure of similar propertiesFarben's General Aniline hired Homer S. Cummings, who was not only a former national committeeman from Connecticut, but a former chairman of the Democratic National Committee itself, and who had just completed a six-year term as Attorney General -of the United States. While Farben always plays both ends against the middle, politically it strings along with the party in power and so, with the passing of the old "Ohio gang," Farben's American fronts suddenly became Democratic strongholds, at least as far as the nation's capital was concerned. In 1932, James A. Farley, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, had solicited my support for his candidate, and asked me to discuss with Mr. Charles Michelson, publicity director of the Committee, such issues as I thought should be brought into the campaign. The result was what is known as the brush-off. To keep the record straight, I confirmed the meeting in a letter to Mr. Michelson, in which a high point of our disagreement was recorded as follows: When you assert that Eddie Clark, Louis K. Liggett's lobbyist is a 'nice chap,' and that you don't blame Mr. Hoover for securing the support of Drug, Inc., who pay for Clark's lobbying, you are really admitting the very point I allege, i.e., that Hoover's connection with this outfit of patent-medicine fakirs is so clearly defined that Governor Roosevelt could find no more powerful illustration of the hypocrisy of the present occupant of the White House. On the same day I wrote to Mr. Farley, enclosed a copy of my letter to Michelson, and restated the Clark-Drug, Inc. issue: Mr. Hoover's recent performance in taking into the White House as his secretary, Mr. Liggett's lobbyist, is in itself, without trimmings, a major issue. Diplomatically, I had referred to Clark as Liggett's lobbyist rather than Farben's. Mr. Farley acknowledged this letter with assurances of appreciation for my suggestions, and with a nice word of thanks for my cooperation. However, he did not bring the Clark-Drug, Inc. issue into the campaign. After the election of Mr. Roosevelt, the announcement that Senator Thomas Walsh, of Montana, was to be the new Attorney General gave a tremendous boost to the hopes of those of us who had been working for some such strong arm and keen mind to direct the affairs of the justice Department-for someone who would start delving into the whys and wherefores of the inaction against the flagrant violations of our antitrust laws, and other federal statutes, that had stigmatized the three preceding administrations. These hopes expired, however, when Tom Walsh died suddenly in a Pullman sleeper not long before he was scheduled to take over the direction of the Department from W. D. Mitchell. Who can say bow or why the hand of Fate which led Tom Walsh to his untimely end, at a moment of triumph, should also have induced the selection of Homer S. Cummings to occupy the high office thus left open to some deserving Democrat. The official

[CTRL] Blue Boxes and Phone Phreaks
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- an excerpt from: The Biggest Company On Earth Sonny Klienfield©1981 Holt, Rinehart Winston ISBN 0-03-045326-7 321 pps. First edition -- - Looking for something else, but came across this interesting piece of history. Om K 15 Blue Boxes and Phone Phreaks Someone makes a long-distance collect call to a pay phone that a friend is stationed at. The friend accepts the charges, but of course there's no one to bill. A man calls home person-to-person and asks to speak to himself. Naturally, he's not there. He leaves word for himself to call back at 6:05. That information, exchanged free of charge, lets his wife know he's heading home on the 6:05 train. Someone calls up a refund control operator on a pay phone. He lies that he just lost a dollar in the phone. A credit is applied to his home bill. A person makes a brief long-distance call, then notifies the operator that he misdialed the number. Policy is to take his word. The call vanishes from his bill. Someone is particularly adept at electronics, so he builds himself a "blue box," an ingenious contrivance that enables the user to dial anywhere, anytime, free. These are just a small sampling of the numberless schemes devised to outfox the phone company. People have tried them all. They have gotten away with them all. Enough have tried and succeeded, in fact, that ATT, the butt of most toll theft, figures that it is hobbled by provable losses from fraud of around $40 million a year. But that's just what it knows it's been robbed of. With so much chicanery that it fails to catch, it thinks the actual numbers are much higher-perhaps double. That isn't all that much money stacked next to revenues from phone usagea staggering $27 billion in 1979but the phone company is convinced that if it didn't work hard at ferreting out crooks, the losses would explode into the hundreds of millions of dollars and possibly strangle the entire phone system. "Fraud remains at a high level, and you might say it's straining to burst its shackles," Bill Caming told me. The cost of theft is actually dug out of the pockets of everyone who has a phone. As Caming worded it: "Toll fraud involves the commission of theft of the company that must be borne ultimately by our subscribers. It attacks every last customer's pocketbook." The blue box is the most nefarious fraud device in telephony. Borrowing its name from the color of the original boxes, it is the weapon of the so-called phone phreaks, the loose federation of whizkids who dash phantomlike through the phone company's long-distance lines and have achieved almost a cult status. The gadget, however, has proven to be a popular intoxicant to a motley crew of users: businessmen, film stars, doctors, lawyers, college students, even high school students. Out of 653 blue box users the phone company has managed to interrogate in the last few years, nearly half were businessmen. The next biggest category was criminals, who find it alluring because it leaves no record of their calls. An inventive twenty-seven-year-old MIT student was convicted for making blue boxes and selling them at $300 a box. Two hundred boxes, ready for delivery, were found piled in his apartment. Bernard Cornfeld, the millionaire financier and playboy, was convicted of blue box calling. So was nightclub singer Lainie Kazan. Actor Bob Cummings was placed under arrest and charged with blue box use, though he avoided trial under a double jeopardy ruling. "People aren't doing it just for financial reasons, that seems awfully obvious," Caming told me. "There seems to be a tremendous appeal in getting something for nothing." I spoke with Caming in his spare, modern office in Basking Ridge, New Jersey. He is in his fifties, with short-cropped white hair, deep-get eyes, and an expression that is a combination of whimsy and intentness. I asked him how a little blue box was able to place the entire telephone system of the world at the mercy of its user. Caming reached into one of his desk drawers and yanked out a shiny blue box that had been engineered to slip easily into a pants pocket. "This is typical of many of them," he said, holding it aloft. It was a small rectangular gadget with thirteen tiny pushbuttons protruding from it. "It's a little bigger than some. But it fits nicely into a Marlboro cigarette box or a box for business cards." With a certain practiced air, Caming began describing what you do with a blue box. Naturally, he wouldn't in his wildest dreams actually initiate a blue box call, even for demonstration purposes, so he contained any temptation to scoop up the receiver of the phone on his desk and explained the process verbally. "Generally, you begin the call by dialing a no-charge number, like to Information in a distant city or to an eight hundred number like Sears Roebuck or Montgomery Ward or one of the airlines. You hear the ringing of the call. So far, everything is legit.

Programming formats, which are increasingly the same across the spectrum of seeming broadcast choice, tend to insure a conformity and often seamless one-note editorial flow. Each day, in thousands of newspaper offices and TV newsrooms, editors and producers gather to make picks from a menu of story possibilities, assessing pitches from reporters in the field and news running on the wire. It is there that they decide what to lead with, and what to downplay. Increasingly, despite the plethora of news sources and the size of the "news army," there is a sameness of sources and angles. Like the word processors found on every desk, there is an idea processor at work, narrowing down what future generations will come to know as the first draft of history. More and more, those stories revolve around some high profile "giga-event"-the O.J. Case, the Death of a Princess, Sex Scandal in the White House, a natural disaster, and so on. Like blackbirds in flight, packs of reporters darken the sky, moving in swarms at the same speed and in predictable trajectory. When one lands, they all land. When one leaves, they all leave. At first look, it seems as if all of this happens naturally, as if it's ordained by some higher logic or the way journalists are supposed to operate. The idea that there is censorship at work here is all too often considered way offbase. But today, in the media at least, programming is a verb as well as a noun. The programmers and channel controllers from all the stations are part of the same well-paid elite, steeped in the same values, committed to the mission of maximizing audience share and profits. They are chosen for their ability to play the game and not challenge the audience with too many controversial ideas or critical perspectives. It's no surprise that they circulate easily within the commanding heights of media power, moving from company to company and job to job. Personally, they seem more concerned with negotiating their own exit strategies and stock options than exercising power to fundamentally improve the range or quality of viewing options. A kind of group think corporate consensus, steeped in market logic and deeply inbred by an un-brave news culture, breeds conscience-free conformity and self-censorship. That's partly why we have so many safe, middle of the road choices on the air, and why views considered unsafe are marginalized. Unlike dictators who jail dissidents, they simply ignore them. The mantra that guides their rejection letters is "Not for Us." FROM MAINSTREAM TO MUDSTREAM Project Censored, a group that reports on the new censorship, warns that journalism as we have known it is sinking ever deeper in a sludge of sleaze, slime, and sensationalism-news that doesn't belong in the news. The consequence: readers, watchers, and citizens are drowning in both trivialization and information overload. Independent producers with something to say have fewer and fewer outlets through which to say it. Not surprisingly, the findings of Project Censored itself are, in effect, censored -rarely reported in the mainstream media. This makes frightening sense in a globalized economy where consumerism is more desired than active citizenship, where power is increasingly concentrated and the public is increasingly unwelcome in a public discourse defined by the powerful. If your goal is to numb people and drive them away from active participation, then TV as "weapon of mass distraction" and wall to wall entertainment makes sense. Shut up and shop is the now the message, one that makes sense to advertiser dominated media

I've seen revolt, and it will be Welsh
Nick Cohen
Monday 7th February 2000
In Cardiff, there is insurrection in the air. As anger rises over Alun
Michael's rule, new Labour is near to losing its hold on Wales. By Nick Cohen
If it were not ridiculous to apply the adjective Shakespearian to a politician
as unprepossessing as Alun Michael - a member of the chorus, whom nature never
fitted for a major part - visitors to the new Welsh Assembly might think
themselves in an alternative Elsinore.
Michael is the usurper on the First Secretary's throne. His elevation was
rigged by Tony Blair to deny the title to Rhodri Morgan, the popular choice,
who can look just as introspective as Prince Hamlet when the mood is on him.
Michael is thronged by courtiers - who in Cardiff at the start of the new
century appear in the natty suits and with the wheedling accents of new Labour
lobbyists.Attendant delegates from the valleys and hills come and go, talking
of life-long learning and the agricultural depression. Only the calculating
glances and muttering huddles in the assembly's lobby, which has been given the
unintentionally suggestive title of "the Mingling Area" by the building's
designers, suggest to a stranger that something is rotten.
In the next few days, the drama will move to a catharsis. It is at least
possible that by the time the next issue of this magazine is published, Wales
will have laid the first hard punch from the left on the Project. If the London
media did not regard Wales as a dreary backwater - the eyebrows of my
metropolitan colleagues shot up when I cried: "I've seen the future, and it's
Welsh!" - events in the principality would be seen for what they are: a
challenge to a Blairite status quo that cannot hold back democratic
aspirations.
After Michael has presented a Budget on 9 February, Plaid Cymru will put down a
motion of no confidence. As new Labour is a minority administration, and the
Liberal Democrats and Conservatives say they will back the nationalists, defeat
appears certain. You might think he will have to re- sign and be replaced by a
politician who can command the support of the assembly. It is nowhere near that
simple. The backroom dealing is frenetic and possibilities are changing by the
hour, but, at the time of writing, the alternative to Michael has to be a
Labour politician - the Tories say they will never combine with the Liberals to
elect a nationalist leader who could "break-up Britain".
Very well, you might reply, Labour will put forward a new candidate for leader
who could unite Welsh opinion and make the fragile plant of home rule blossom.
Again, this would display an ignorance of the new Taffia that has rallied to
Blair (the Toffia, perhaps?), which is touching, but hopelessly naive. When
Michael was snatched from a minor position in the Home Office and imposed on
the Welsh Labour Party, the leadership worried, understandably, that he would
be ditched as soon as London's back was turned. Its fear of a counter-coup
means that there is no formal mechanism for Labour assembly members to tell
Michael that, what with one thing and another, it would be better if he went
back to Whitehall. Michael can look cocksure because the Labour group cannot,
in theory, get rid of him.
His enemies are playing "fantasy politics" if they think they can force him
out, he says. Paul Murphy, the minister who represents Wales as Welsh Secretary
in the cabinet, agrees. If the opposition cannot pick a rival candidate,"they
should stop wasting everyone's time with their pathetic posturing".
The other parties may be "pathetic", but the Labour Party's position is as
absurd as imagining Michael playing the male lead. What is being envisaged is
that he will see the assembly pass a motion of no confidence in himself. He
will resign. He will go back to the Labour group and say that there is nothing
it can do but put his name forward. He will be the only candidate. He will be
reelected. A motion of no confidence will be passed . . . and so on, ad
infinitum.
This is true fantasy politics. Sooner or later, Welsh public opinion will step
in and force Labour members to ignore the rules and call a halt. Lord Elis-
Thomas (formerly Dafydd) the assembly's presiding officer, understands that his
institution risks becoming a joke and has taken legal advice on whether he can
bar Michael from standing again.
The manoeuvres in Cardiff are Byzantine enough to give the most pitiful
political junkie an overdose. The wider issues are of great relevance to those
in London and the north of England who hope that devolution will free their
regions from the suffocating mediocrity of centralisation.
The opposition parties and many in the Labour party are saying, in effect, that
there is no point in devolution if local leaders like Michael do what the
government would have done anyway. Rather than see the assembly fall

~ Colleen Jones, Chairman of the Board *International Order of the Irish Mafia* The Clan of Dan* **DON'T TREAD ON ME YOU SOB** Dear Brigade, In case you missed this excellent commentary from Chuck Baldwin on Jesse Helms and the UN it's worth a read. I also recommend that you consider joining his list [see info below] -- he always has "Food for Thought"! GO PAT GO Linda --- From Our Contact Form http://www.buchanan.org/form-contact.html From: Aakash Raut - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linda, Here is another excellent recent article regarding the United Nations- it ends with a very strong message: "Unfortunately, both major parties are comprised of people who dance to the tunes played by these pernicious pipers. That is why, no matter which party is in power, the country continues its jeopardy-filled journey into internationalism. I refuse to play along. I will no longer vote for the lesser of two evils. I will only vote for a principled, America-first candidate. If such a candidate is not nominated by either major party, I will look elsewhere. The prospects being what they are, I think my search has already begun." GO PAT GO!! MONDAY JANUARY 31, 2000 Jesse Helms spoke for me By Chuck Baldwin © 2000 WorldNetDaily.com Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman, Jesse Helms, created quite a stir when he appeared before the United Nations Security Council recently. In effect, he told the group of socialists to bug off. He reminded them that the United States was a sovereign nation and that it would never surrender its sovereignty to a group of New World Order geeks. He further told them to quit meddling in our affairs and to stop pretending they are the world's policemen. He even suggested the United States may withdraw from the international body. The delegates were livid. They squirmed in their seats, hissed and grumbled. There was no applause. One man even tried to shout the senator down. Helms had obviously hit a nerve. Within hours, President Clinton sent secretary of state, Madeleine Albright, to assure the group that America was still on course for global government. She told them that only she and Mr. Clinton spoke for America. I beg to differ, Madame Secretary. As an American citizen, I can promise you that Sen. Helms did most certainly speak for me! He spoke for me when he said we Americans would never accept any international authority. He spoke for me when he said we Americans would never surrender our sovereignty. By implication that means our guns, too. He spoke for me when he said the United Nations has no authority to police us or to meddle in our affairs. I am sick and tired of these patronizing politicians, who want to surrender our nation's independence, pretending to represent me! They don't. What they do represent is a bunch of international corporations and financiers who have no loyalty to our country. They are people who worship at the altar of power and greed. They are without honor or principle. Their souls belong to the devil and their fidelity to the highest bidder. They deserve neither respect nor courtesy. Unfortunately, both major parties are comprised of people who dance to the tunes played by these pernicious pipers. That is why, no matter which party is in power, the country continues its jeopardy-filled journey into internationalism. I refuse to play along. I will no longer vote for the lesser of two evils.

[CTRL] Nato accused of violating international law in Kosovo
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Independent (UK): Nato accused of violating international law in Kosovo By Andrew Marshall in Washington 7 February 2000 Nato breached international law in its air attacks on Yugoslavia last year, a respected human rights body says in a report issued today. The report, by Human Rights Watch, is particularly critical of the use of cluster-bombs. The United States stopped using the munitions halfway through the war, but Britain continued using them, raising serious issues about the Government's concern for civilian casualties. Nato killed at least 500 civilians during the Kosovo conflict, the report concludes after visits to the sites of many of the attacks. "Human Rights Watch has found no evidence of war crimes," it says. But, it adds, "the investigation did conclude that Nato violated international humanitarian law". The report says that Nato may have breached the Geneva Convention in five areas: it conducted air attacks using cluster-bombs near populated areas; attacked targets of questionable military legitimacy; did not take adequate measures to warn civilians of strikes; took insufficient precautions to identify the presence of civilians when attacking mobile targets; and caused excessive civilian casualties by not taking sufficient measures to verify that targets did not have concentrations of civilians. Most of the attacks resulted from missing military targets. But "nine incidents were a result of strikes on non-military targets that Human Rights Watch believes were illegitimate", including Serb Radio and Television in Belgrade. At least one-fifth of those who died were killed by cluster-bombs, which spray bomblets over a wide area. "Overall, cluster-bomb use by the United States and Britain can be confirmed in seven incidents throughout Yugoslavia [another five are possible butunconfirmed]," the report says. "Some 90 to 150 civiliansdied from the use of these weapons." It reveals the United States stopped using the weapons after a hitherto secret presidential order. "Widespread reports of civilian casualties from the use of cluster-bombs and international criticism of these weapons as potentially indiscriminate, in effect, led ... to an unprecedented US executive order in the middle of May to cease their further use in the conflict," the report says. "The White House issued the order only days after civilians were killed by Nato cluster-bombs in the city of Nis on May 7." But Britain, according to the RAF's own reports, continued to use the weapons. "Cluster-bombs should not have been used in attacks in populated areas, let alone urban targets, given the risks," it says. "Nevertheless, the [RAF] continued to drop cluster-bombs, indicating the need for universal, not national, norms regarding cluster-bomb use." The report also says there is "some evidence" Yugoslav forces used civilians as human shields. The body calls on Nato to "establish an independent and impartial commission ... that would ... consider the need to alter targeting and bombing doctrine to ensure compliance with international humanitarian law".

[CTRL] Fwd: [melchizedek-l] Year of the Dragon - Chinese New Year
Greetings ! This year's Chinese New Year had an "auspicious" sign of beginning on a day that had a New Moon and a Solar Eclipse - besides being the Tibetan New Year, as well. February 5 marked the beginning of the Year of the Dragon, or the 4698th Year according to the Chinese calendar. New Moons are times of "new beginnings" and Solar Eclipses help us to address ourselves in our "outer world". Below is some information that you may wish to set aside to see "how" the dragon plays out in your world and life this year! The Year of the Dragon, is thought to be a vital and energetic time, characterized by action and accomplishment. Shining with the internal and external fire of life, the Dragon radiates extreme and vital energy. Force and Power are the symbols associated with the Dragon, and are the keywords that will influence the coming year. In addition, the Chinese say that the Dragon leaves wealth and prosperity in his wake.. With the ascendance of such strength, it is important that the Dragon not to be lulled into believing that he is infallible - since a lack of realism can lead to excess. Channeling energy will be a full time task! Chinese astrologers predict that this Year of the Dragon will be particularly auspicious for great international events, particularly because this New Year's Day coincides with the First Day of Spring in the Chinese lunar calendar. I was impressed to make homemade Spring rolls (egg rolls) which are traditionally made and shared with guests within the Chinese New Year celebrations - - I am neither Chinese nor had guests - but we enjoyed them immensely ! Gung Hay Fat Choy! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ 2000 the Year of the Metal Dragon By Shelly Wu February 5, 2000 - January 23, 2001 As we approach the millennium change and new year of the Dragon in 2000, we find ourselves bombarded by prophets of doom preaching apocalypse. Believers and skeptics alike are studying the subject of eschatology (the branch of theology concerned with final events or the end of the world.) A myriad of computer experts and religious leaders warn of coming collapse. On the other hand, some hold fast to the belief that self-styled prophets who announce the impending end of the world, are nothing but charlatans propagating a scam to empty our pockets. Then, there are the moderates who wont commit either way insisting: "No one knows WHAT will really happen". What does Chinese astrology have to say about the year 2000? Swimming against the current, it predicts a better future for mankind. According to this 5,000 year old art, our planet should progress quite nicely in the next two years, which correspond to the years of the lucky Metal Dragon, and the wise Metal Snake. As a matter-of-fact, these two years are thought to be better than average in the twelve year cycle that is the Chinese zodiacal system. Naturally, there will be earthquakes here and there, floods, fires, tornadoes, wars, and so on during the next two years but, according to the Chinese astral configurations, there is nothing that would indicate an apocalypse. Any problems are less likely to happen on 1-1-2000 of this detached Rabbit/cat year, as on or after the new year of the unpredictable Dragon beginning on 2-5-2000. It is at that time when "Fixes" or "patches" put into place in the hope of circumventing problems, MAY cause problems of their own. On February 5th, 2000 We enter the year of the Metal Dragon. Unlike the other animals of the Chinese zodiac, the Dragon is a mythical creature, and the sign of good luck and vital health. Unlike the frightening Dragon of Western mythology, Chinese Dragons are benevolent creatures who live in the heavens and command the wind, mist, rain, thunder and lightning. Dragon years are traditionally filled with Pageantry, Festivals and elaborate Celebrations. A year of potential extravagance, grandiose ambitions and enterprises which soar to the forefront with drama. Dragon years can be exhausting and unpredictable, bringing both spectacular victories and bitter defeats. A bi-polar year of sharp ups and downs. Due to the mythical nature of the Dragon successes can be fleeting or illusion only. The essence of Dragon years is ' unpredictability, and the culminating point in this coming Metal Dragon year will be Autumn. The Yin force of mid-autumn blends with the strong Yang of the Dragon, life becomes more temperate - more balanced at this time. The year 2000 will be influenced by the element of Metal. The nature and power of Metal is to delineate and to define. This element adds rigidity to an individual sign or a particular year. The Metal element represents clarity, purity and precision. Metal years create structure, bring matters to the surface. Metal Dragon years are traditionally stormy, outspoken, and brutally candid. The 'solitary' element of Metal,

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Jean Hudon Earth Rainbow Network Coordinator http://www.cybernaute.com/earthconcert2000 Subject: "Within the next eighteen months...the truth about ETs" Date: Sun, 31 Oct 1999 From: Susan Ferguson [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Extraterrestrials Co-Create Our Future http://www.magicalblend.com/ReadingRoom/Prophecies.html Dr. Richard Boylan, Ph.D. worked 25 years as a psychotherapist and clinical psychologist, author of four books, his most recent is Project Epiphany in which he claims that the Future is now! Dr. Boylan conveys that sources in the U.S. government have made it clear to him that we (the human race) do have relationships with extraterrestrials. A group of those that are enlightened by this contact have agreed upon a time table; within the next eighteen months, the truth of extraterrestrial existence will be undeniable. At this time it will be announced by the head of the U.N. Security Council that we will be exchanging ambassadors with the Extraterrestrial Federation of Planets. This federation is made up of beings of all types, from Whitley Striber's greys to non-corpreal, thought essences. From gasbag beings to intelligent insect races. This federation is a non-monetary, non-violent, telepathic coalition of beings from numerous planets. The Federation has already greatly affected our physical and spiritual evolution throughout history and even before. Many great spiritual teachers and leaders, Boylan iterates, were actually alien in origin. They believe themselves intermediaries between the "God Force" and ourselves. They, soon after establishing open contact, will distribute their vast technology. They intend to give us the knowledge to build free energy machines, teleportation devices, food replicators and instant education machines that will be able to download a whole foreign language in a one hour session and much more. They will graciously (and speedily) give us the secrets to telepathic communication, ending disease and aging and enabling time travel. Dr. Boylan says the Mayans knew this would be taking place. By the end of the Mayan calendar, 2012, Earth and all of Humanity will be wholly integrated into this extraterrestrial federation. We will be a world consisting of real communities built on trust, mutual caring, and shared common interests. Telepathy will bring an end to violence, greed and depression. We will be a society that is ready to reach for the stars, committed to constant self-improvement and artistic expression with a greatly expanded definition of home and of all other levels of reality.

Ferguson author, Inanna Returns and Inanna Hyper-Luminal * * * * * * * * * EXTRATERRESTRIAL THEOLOGY: A SYNOPSIS by Richard J. Boylan, Ph.D.* Abstract A synopsis of extraterrestrial theology is presented, synthesized from information communicated by extraterrestrials to humans during close encounters. These are the extraterrestrial races actually visiting the Earth, and may apply to other member cultures of their interstellar political-cultural alliance, sometimes labeled the Interstellar Federation. This synopsis draws from a database constructed from 1989-present by Richard Boylan, research behavioral scientist and cultural anthropologist with graduate training in theology and philosophy. This database comes from in-depth debriefings of more than 180 experiencers. Those data provide the foundation for this analysis of the extraterrestrials' theological views. The following theological topics are discussed: the extraterrestrials' acknowledgment of, and ideas about, God; whether intelligent life is hierarchical or egalitarian; the ETs' spiritual mission; whether ETs are spiritual gurus; the ETs' role in human development; the ETs, Avatars and religious inspiration; ETs' views on death and judgment versus reincarnation; sin and the existence of evil; Creation and evolution; whether Redemption is universal; and the ETs' ideas about God's family. The presentation concludes with an examination of possible human reactions to the visiting extraterrestrials' spiritual cultures. (C) 1996 This synopsis is constructed from data from more than 180 in-depth interview debriefings with experiencers of extraterrestrial contact (Boylan, 1994). The analysis and synthesis are the author's best distillation of that data. It should be borne in mind that it is the nature of extraterrestrial communications that, in the overwhelming majority of instances, extraterrestrials communicate with humans by telepathic transfer of mental images or concepts, rather than by words or speech. Thus, there inherently is some human interpretation of the mental impressions transmitted by an extraterrestrial (ET).
[CTRL] Fwd: Hating Haidar
For the first time, I fully understand the worldwide hate campaign against Joerg Haidar and Austria. The lead article for Monday on http://www.LewRockwell.com (from the New York Times) describes--incredibly--one of the "dark" items of Austria's past as its stopping the Turkish conquest of Europe! Now Haidar, with his opposition to open borders with the Muslim east, is opposed to what the Times assures us is the inevitable and wonderful de-Westernization of Europe. (The article also criticizes Haidar for using white Austrian girls in his campaign posters. Instead of Rwandan Hutus, presumably.) By the way, how dare the New York Times keep waving the bloody flag while instructing us in morality? This is the paper that consciously promoted Stalin, Mao, Castro, and the rest. The Times even published false articles by commie Walter Duranty that it knew to be fasle, to aid Stalin. New York Times, apologize for your past crimes and send reparations to the Russians, the Ukrainians, the Eastern Europeans, the Chinese, the Cubans, and the rest. Indemnify the slave armies of Roosevelt as well. Shut up about Austria. Then we might consider forgiving you. P.S. There's a lot of other great stuff on http://LewRockwell.com for Monday as well.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ncircus.com/ufo/index.htm Interim Report of the Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experiments Appendix, pp. E-1.1 to 1.6 History and Organization of the Central Intelligence Agency The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was created in 1947 by the National Security Act, which also established the Department of Defense (DOD) and the National Security Council (NSC). CIA was modeled largely after the Office of Strategic Services, which served as the principal U.S. intelligence organization during World War II. The newly created agency was authorized to engage in foreign intelligence collection (i.e., espionage). analysis. and covert actions, it was, however, prohibited from engaging in domestic police or internal security functions. Nonetheless, CIA engaged in a program of domestic human experimentation from the 1950s into the 1970s. CIA components most likely to have. been associated with any experiment are the Office of Scientific Intelligence (OSI) in the Directorate of Intelligence, the Office of Security, the Technical Services Division (TSD) in the then-Directorate of Plans (DDP, now Directorate of Operations), and (at least from 1962) the Office of Research and Development (ORD) in the Directorate of Science and Technology. Beginning in the late 1940s, OSI analyzed and disseminated foreign scientific, and medical intelligence concerning the development and testing of atomic weapons and interacted with DOD and the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) on these issues. TSD ran Project MKULTRA, discussed below. Human experimentation was done prior to MKULTRA by OSI and the Office of Security and, after MKULTRA, by ORD. Experiments To date, CIA has found no records or other information indicating that it conducted or sponsored human radiation experiments. Records Search In response to the January 1994 presidential directive, CIA conducted an agency-wide search for information about human radiation experiments that it may have conducted.[ 1 ] At the Committee's initial meeting in April 1994, CIA stated that the search encompassed an electronic review of approximately 34 million documents, a manual review of 480,300 documents, and nearly 50 interviews. CIA also stated that it had found no documents relating to experiments conducted by other agencies. The Committee, however, has since found records indicating that CIA officers did participate in DOD groups in which human radiation experiments, including those involving the placement of troops at atmospheric weapons tests, were discussed and planned. As discussed below, CIA is continuing to search for documents relating to these and other activities. Beginning in the early 1950s, CIA engaged in an extensive program of human experimentation, using drugs, psychological. and other means in search of techniques to control human behavior CIA has so far found no evidence that radiation experiments on humans were part of this program. CIA documents and a 1963 CIA Inspector General (IG) report. however state quite clearly that .MKULTRA was a program "concerned with research and development of chemical. biological. and radiological materials capable of employment in clandestine operations to control human behavior." (emphasis added) The IG report states that "additional avenues to the control of human behavior had been designated . . as appropriate to investigation under the MKULTRA charter, including radiation, electroshock. various fields of psychology, sociology, and anthropology, graphology, harassment substances, and paramilitary devices and materials." (emphasis added)[ 2 ] The program included unwitting experimentation on humans with LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide), brainwashing, and other interrogation methods. CIA's human behavior program originated in 1950 and was motivated by Soviet, Chinese, and North Korean use of mind control techniques. It began under the code name BLUEBIRD (and was later known as ARTICHOKE) and was operated by the Office of Security and OSI with support from other offices. MKULTRA formally began in April 1953 as a special, clandestine funding mechanism for DOD human behavior research. The program was the subject of investigations by the Rockefeller Commission in 1975, the Senate Church Committee in 1976, and hearings by Senator Kennedy in 1975 and 1977, however, these committees did not focus on

[CTRL] GOLD CLUSTERS
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- NEW SERIES OF MASSIVE GOLD CLUSTERS HAS "EXTRAORDINARY" QUANTUM PROPERTIES WITH POTENTIAL USES IN NANOELECTRONICS Structure of Molecular Clusters | Formation of Molecular Clusters | Unique Electronic Properties Applications | Interdisciplinary Research Leads to Results An interdisciplinary team of researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology has isolated a new series of highly stable and massive gold-cluster molecules that possess a set of "extraordinary" quantum properties. "With these properties, the molecules are very attractive building blocks for testing one type of ultra miniaturized architecture envisioned by some for 21st-century nanoelectronics, as well as for other chemical and molecular-biological applications," said Dr. Robert L. Whetten, Professor of Physics and Chemistry at Georgia Tech. Photo copyright information Graduate Students Igor Vezmar and Joseph Khoury use a high-mass spectrometer to analyze the new series of gold clusters. (200-dpi JPEG version - 241k) Supported by the National Science Foundation, the U.S. Office of Naval Research, the Packard Foundation, and the Georgia Tech Foundation, the work was reported April 16 at the 213th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society in San Francisco. Structure of Molecular Clusters Each molecule in the new series has a compact, crystalline gold core. This pure metallic core, just one-to-two billionths of a meter (1-2 nanometers) across, is encapsulated within a shell of tightly packed hydrocarbon chains linked to the core via sulfur atoms. The principal members of the series have core-masses of about 14,000; 22,000 and 28,000 protons, corresponding to about 75, 110 and 145 gold atoms, respectively, and are thus in the same mass range as larger protein molecules, as reported by M. M. Alvarez and colleagues in a paper published recently in Chemical Physics Letters. These differ, both in size and the higher yield with which they are obtained, from their heavier analogs described in 1996 by Whetten and colleagues in Advanced Materials. The precise structures of the cores are as yet unknown, but theoretical and experimental evidence suggests they are faceted with a particular gem-stone shape, as reported in a forthcoming paper by Whetten, Dr. Uzi Landman, and their co-workers in the Zeitschrift fer Physik. "The surrounding chains can be of any length, and can be modified to confer particular chemical properties, so that they can be incorporated into various solid-state and solution structures," Whetten noted. "Most importantly, each member of the series behaves as a substance composed of infinitely replicated molecules, which can be separated from other members of the series to yield pure substances with precisely defined properties." Formation of Molecular Clusters The gold cluster molecules emerge spontaneously during the decomposition of certain gold-thiolate polymers of the type commonly used in decorative gold paints and in gold anti-arthritis drugs. With sufficient control of the decomposition process, this series can be isolated without concurrent production of larger gold crystals. It is then relatively easy to separate the principal members of the series from each other to obtain the necessary homogeneity. Once purified, the molecules spontaneously assemble into crystalline thin films, powders, or macrocrystals, while preserving the discrete properties of the individual gold nanocrystal cores. Gold is important technically not only for its inertness -- once made, the clusters are immune to corrosion -- but also for its highly stable surfaces, which find application as junctions in critical microelectronic applications. Unique Electronic Properties Applications "The main fascination of very small metal crystals, and the foundation for their envisioned use in future electronics, arises from the fact that their conduction electrons are quantized both in their number -- charge quantization -- and in the states they can occupy -- energy quantization," Whetten added. "In crystals larger than a few nanometers, these effects can only be observed and used at very low temperatures, such as that of liquid helium, near absolute zero. The new series of nanocrystals are both sufficiently small that these effects are prominent even at ordinary temperatures and yet are large enough to have the robust crystalline properties of the bulk metal." The electromagnetic and conduction properties of the clusters are extremely sensitive to charging, and somewhat less so to energy level. Whetten believes these states can be used in a proposed electronic circuitry known as "single-electronics." The new gold cluster materials are the first to exhibit the charge-quantization effect in a macroscopically obtained material, for which every cluster behaves identically. The first measurements were conducted in the laboratory of Dr. Phil First at Georgia Tech by observing the

ABSTRACT Quantum theory predicts, and experiments verify, that empty space (the vacuum) contains an enormous residual background energy known as zero-point energy (ZPE). Originally thought to be of significance only for such esoteric concerns as small perturbations to atomic emission processes, it is now known to play a role in large-scale phenomena of interest to technologists as well, such as the inhibition of spontaneous emission, the generation of short-range attractive forces (e.g., the Casimir force), and the possibility of accounting for sonoluminescence phenomena. ZPE topics of interest for spaceflight applications range from fundamental issues (where does inertia come from, can it be controlled?), through laboratory attempts to extract useful energy from vacuum fluctuations (can the ZPE be "mined" for practical use?), to scientifically-grounded extrapolations concerning "engineering the vacuum" (is "warp- drive" space propulsion a scientific possibility?). Recent advances in research into the physics of the underlying ZPE indicate the possibility of potential application in all these areas of interest. INTRODUCTION The concept "engineering the vacuum" was first introduced by Nobel Laureate T. D. Lee in his book Particle Physics and Introduction to Field Theory. As stated there: "The experimental method to alter the properties of the vacuum may be called vacuum engineering If indeed we are able to alter the vacuum, then we may encounter some new phenomena, totally unexpected." Recent experiments have indeed shown this to be the case. With regard to space propulsion, the question of engineering the vacuum can be put succinctly: "Can empty space itself provide the solution?" Surprisingly enough, there are hints that potential help may in fact emerge quite literally out of the vacuum of so-called "empty space." Quantum theory tells us that empty space is not truly empty, but rather is the seat of myriad energetic quantum processes that could have profound implications for future space travel. To understand these implications it will serve us to review briefly the historical development of the scientific view of what constitutes empty space. At the time of the Greek philosophers, Democritus argued that empty space was truly a void, otherwise there would not be room for the motion of atoms. Aristotle, on the other hand, argued equally forcefully that what appeared to be empty space was in fact a plenum (a background filled with substance), for did not heat and light travel from place to place as if carried by some kind of medium? The argument went back and forth through the centuries until finally codified by Maxwell's theory of the luminiferous ether, a plenum that carried electromagnetic waves, including light, much as water carries waves across its surface. Attempts to measure the properties of this ether, or to measure the Earth's velocity through the ether (as in the Michelson- Morley experiment), however, met with failure. With the rise of special relativity which did not require reference to such an underlying substrate, Einstein in 1905 effectively banished the ether in favor of the concept that empty space constitutes a true void. Ten years later, however, Einstein's own development of the general theory of relativity with its concept of curved space and distorted geometry forced him to reverse his stand and opt for a richly- endowed plenum, under the new label spacetime metric. It was the advent of modern quantum theory, however, that established the quantum vacuum, so-called empty space, as a very active place, with particles arising and disappearing, a virtual plasma, and fields continuously fluctuating about their zero baseline values. The energy associated with such processes is called zero-point energy (ZPE), reflecting the fact that such activity remains even at absolute zero. THE VACUUM AS A POTENTIAL ENERGY SOURCE At its most fundamental level, we now recognize that the quantum vacuum is an enormous reservoir of untapped energy, with energy densities

[CTRL] Pop Rock Music Mind Control
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- SIGHTINGS http://www.sightings.com/health3/rmusic.htm Pop Rock Music Mind Control http://home.sprintmail.com/~rigoletto/reports/human_origins.html 1-16-2000 Woodstock '99 Phish And for those interested in the Woodstock '99 - Phish connection: FANS FIND SOMETHING FISHY ABOUT PHISH CONCERTS DENVER (Wireless Flash) -- There's something fishy about the band Phish -- at least if you believe a man who's been to more than 30 of the group's psychedelic shows. 23-year-old Dan Hinman claims he's witnessed all sorts of odd behavior at the concerts and has concluded that the shows might be mind control experiments conducted by the government. Hinman says the band plays very unique hypnotic tones and notes which frequently transform the audience into a group of willing zombies. Even more suspicious, the band has held several concerts at military bases where mind control projects are supposedly underway. Hinman believes the government might be experimenting with a method to control the youth of America by making them more passive. He claims the sad thing is that most Phish fans are so devoted to the band, they refuse to believe the concerts could be mind control experiments. _ Beatles, Rock Roll and Mind Control http://user.tninet.se/~gbl020q/influential_rock_music.htm I am one of those who grew up with The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper, Led Zeppelin etc. I thought it was GREAT music and I was totally into it. I am a musician and a composer myself, influenced from the artists and groups above. At that time, in my teens and twenties I was not very well educated on the situation on this planet, even though I thought something must be very wrong. Often I thought the rock musicians had the answers... I know many of you might feel the same and therefore you may get upset about what I'm now going to tell you. But believe me, I've gone through all that myself, and after all - I WAS a rock musician too. The story, though, that I will tell you makes a whole lot of sense (unfortunately) and the glamour of rock music fades quite a bit. The following is an excerpt from Dr. John Coleman's excellent book "The Committee of 300", which is very informative on the subject of the Illuminati and is highly recommended. Very much of what he "predicted" in the early 80's happened exactly the way he said it would. The book in itself is from the early 90's. The Beatles and the Aquarian Conspiracy An outstanding example of social conditioning to accept change, even when it is recognized as unwelcome change by the large population group in the sights of Stanford Research Institute, was the "advent" of the BEATLES. The Beatles were brought to the United States as part of a social experiment which would subject large population groups to brainwashing of which they were not even aware. When Tavistock brought the Beatles to the United States nobody could have imagined the cultural disaster that was to follow in their wake. The Beatles were an integral part of "THE AQUARIAN CONSPIRACY," a living organism which sprang From "THE CHANGING IMAGES OF MAN," URH (489)-2150-Policy Research Report No. 4/4/74. Policy Report pre-pared by SRI Center for the study of Social Policy, Director, Professor Willis Harmon. The phenomenon of the Beatles was not a spontaneous rebellion by youth against the old social system. Instead it was a carefully crafted plot to introduce by a conspiratorial body which could not be identified, a highly destructive and divisive element into a large population group targeted for change against its will. New words and new phrases--prepared by Tavistock(1)-- were introduced to America along with the Beatles. Words such as "rock" in relation to music sounds, "teenager," "cool," "discovered" and "pop music" were a lexicon of disguised code words signifying the acceptance of drugs and arrived with and accompanied the Beatles wherever they went, to be "discovered" by "teenagers." Incidentally, the word "teenagers" was never used until just before the Beatles arrived on the scene, courtesy of the Tavistock Institute for Human Relations. As in the case of gang wars, nothing could or would have been accomplished without the cooperation of the media, especially the electronic media and, in particular, the scurrilous Ed Sullivan who had been coached by the conspirators as to the role he was to play. Nobody would have paid much attention to the motley crew from Liverpool and the 12-atonal system of "music" that was to follow had it not been for an overabundance of press exposure. The 12-atonal system consisted of heavy, repetitive sounds, taken from the music of the cult of Dionysus and the Baal priesthood by Adorno and given a "modern" flavor
[CTRL] Russian tanker smuggled Iraqi oil (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Russian tanker smuggled Iraqi oil February 07, 2000 12:27 By PAMELA HESS WASHINGTON, Feb. 7 (UPI) -- A Russian merchant vessel stopped by a U.S. Navy ship enforcing economic sanctions against Iraq was carrying Iraqi oil, according to documents found on the ship and chemical analysis of the cargo, U.S. Central Command said Monday. "Evidence has been gathered and analyzed that conclusively supports the determination that the Volgoneft-147 smuggled illegal Iraqi oil, in violation of United Nations Security Council Resolutions," Central Command announced. Samples of the oil on board the Volgoneft-147 were subjected to high-resolution capillary gas analysis late last week that proved the oil originated in Iraq, officials said. The Navy team also found documents indicating that the oil is from Iraq, which has been under economic sanctions since the 1991 Gulf War. The documents came from the stateroom of the first officer, who is an Iraqi national. Navy inspectors said the ship's navigation computer and handwritten chart markings also show a transit route from Iraq, through Iranian waters to the United Arab Emirates. The ship was detained Feb. 2 by U.S. forces participating in the Maritime Intervention Force on suspicion it was carrying contraband. The ship has been sent to Oman, where the diesel fuel and vessel will be sold or used by the government of Oman, according to its own laws, Pentagon spokesman Rear Adm. Craig Quigley told reporters. Oman says the Russian vessel will not be impounded and will be free to go with its crew -- including the Iraqi national -- after the oil is unloaded, according to the official Omani News Agency. That process will take 24 to 48 hours to complete. "In accordance with an understanding between Oman and each the United States and the Russian Federation, and in accordance with U.N. Security Council resolutions, Oman will undergo its responsibilities and unload the shipment. As soon as that is done, the transport vessel will have the freedom to sail to any destination it wants," said Senior Foreign Ministry official Badr bin Hamad bin Hmoud al-Bous'edi on Monday, according to the Omani News Agency. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Russian tanker smuggled Iraqi oil (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Friday, February 4 1:02 AM SGT US gave Russia advance warning on ship boarding WASHINGTON, Feb 3 (AFP) - Secretary of State Madeleine Albright gave Russian leaders in Moscow this week advance warning that the US Navy would board a Russian tanker suspected of smuggling oil from Iraq, US officials said Thursday. "We've been in discussion with the Russians for upwards of a month on the subject of Russian flagged tankers suspected of sanctions busting," a senior US official said. The rare US naval action against a Russian vessel brought demands by Moscow for the immediate release of the Volgoneft and denials that it was carrying Iraqi oil. But US military officials said the ship was tracked leaving Iraqi waters and followed as it hugged the Iranian coastline. It was intercepted and boarded Wednesday by the USS Monterrey as it crossed the Gulf toward the United Arab Emirates, they said. "We have had our eye on this Russian ship for some time," a Pentagon official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. "This particular ship was stopped, boarded and now it will undergo further investigation in port to determine whether this is indeed Iraqi oil it is carrying," said White House spokesman Joe Lockhart. The oil's origin can be determined by an analysis its chemical characteristics, officials here said. "It's like a finger print," said a Pentagon official. "Once they complete the analysis they'll be able to know if it's Iraqi or not." The US Navy has been monitoring suspected smuggling by Russian flag ships in the Gulf for the past month, Pentagon officials said. The Russian government was given advance warning that the Navy would board the ship, according to US officials, who said Albright discussed it with Russian leaders during her meetings in Moscow this week. US Navy ships have boarded a Russian vessel only once before in the Gulf, said Major Joe LaMarca, spokesman for the US Central Command in Tampa, Florida. About 700 ships from a variety of countries were boarded last year by US warships patrolling the Gulf and Red Sea to enforce UN economic sanctions on Iraq, he said. But only 17 ships were diverted to port, he said. A senior US military official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said there was "no reason to suspect" that the Russian ship was part of an officially sanctioned smuggling operation. But the incident was sure to aggravate tensions between the United States and Russia, which have been increasingly at loggerheads over the use of US military force against Iraq and Serbia, both traditional Russian allies. In Moscow, Defense Minister Igor Sergeyev said he viewed "negatively the fact that a Russian trading vessel was intercepted by American military ships." While Russia has pressed for an easing of sanctions against Iraq, Washington has vowed to keep the pressure on Baghdad with a campaign of intermittent air strikes and enforcement of sanctions. The latest US action comes amid a surge in oil smuggling from Iraq which has tracked a sharp increase in oil prices, LaMarca said. "The amount of illegal oil virtually doubled since resumption of oil smuggling in late August," he said. The Navy estimates that 367,000 tonnes of oil were smuggled out of Iraq in January, up from 191,000 tonnes in September, he said. Oil smuggling was virtually halted in December 1998 when US and British forces hammered Iraq with four days of air strikes, which among other things struck oil loading facilities in Basra. The aircraft carrier USS Kennedy and six US surface warships in the Gulf are joined by British navy ships in enforcing UN sanctions against Iraq. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Going Bananas
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Even if it does appear on Urban Legends, I will be giving bananas a rest for a while. Peter From: Dr. Joseph Puleo [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 04, 2000 5:43 PM Subject: [Fwd: [Fwd: Bananas...]] Warning: Several shipments of bananas from Costa Rica have been infected with necrotizing fasciitis, otherwise known as flesh eating bacteria. Recently this disease has decimated the monkey population in Costa Rica. We are now just learning that the disease has been able to graft itself to the skin of fruits in the region, most notably the Banana which is Costa Rica's largest export. Until this finding scientist were not sure how the infection was being transmitted. It is advised not to purchase Bananas for the next three weeks as this is the period of time for which bananas that have been shipped to the US with the possibility of carrying this disease. If you have eaten a banana in the last 2-3 days and come down with a fever followed by a skin infection seek "Medical Attention"!!! The skin infection from necrotizing fasciitis is very painful and eats two to three centimeters of flesh per hour. Amputation is likely, death is possible.. If you are more than an hour from a medical center burning the flesh ahead of the infected area is advised to help slow the spread of the infection. The FDA has been reluctant to issue a country wide warning because of fear of a nationwide panic. They have secretly admitted that they feel upwards of 15,000 Americans will be affected by this but that these are acceptable numbers. Please forward this to as many people you care about as possible as we do not feel 15,000 people is an acceptable number.

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- No Link Between Human Cancer And Simian Virus In recent years, some studies have suggested that simian virus 40 (SV40), which contaminated some polio vaccines made between 1955 and 1963, may now be passing from person to person and causing certain types of human cancers. A new analysis of many of these studies, however, has now concluded that existing data do not indicate any definitive link between the development of human cancer and exposure to SV40. "Nor do the data support the assertion that SV40 is now spreading in the human population by person-to-person transmission," said author Keerti V. Shah, DrPH, MD, Molecular Microbiology and Immunology, Johns Hopkins School of Public Health. His analysis of the SV40 research was published in the February 2000 issue of Reviews in Medical Virology. Dr. Shah cited several inconsistencies in studies purporting to show that SV40 is now spread by person-to-person transmission. The SV40 gene sequences that are being found in humans, for instance, are essentially identical to those of SV40 found in monkeys in the wild. "SV40 is a highly species-specific virus," he said. "It is difficult to conceive that this virus would cross the species barrier, become a human infection, and acquire pathogenic potential for causing cancer for the new host, without a significant adaptive change in its genome." Further, Dr. Shah noted that several studies looking for SV40 in human cancers have been negative, and that SV40 has not been detected in human urine, where it would be expected if the virus had adapted to circulate in humans. The polio virus used in vaccine production between 1955 and 1963 was grown in macaque kidney cell cultures that were sometimes contaminated with SV40. The largest U.S. manufacturer of polio vaccine at that time, however, used a culture system inhospitable to SV40 and so a significant proportion of vaccine lots were probably free of SV40. Furthermore, many of the individuals with SV40-positive tumors were born long after polio vaccines were free of SV40. The analysis turned up many inconsistencies: Some researchers report SV40 in sperm fluids, while others do not. The frequency of detection of SV40 in normal blood cells varies greatly from study to study, from 0 to 23 percent. SV40 T antigen was detected in cancers by some investigators but not by others. On the molecular level, Dr. Shah noted that although many researchers report finding SV40 sequences in human cancers, SV40 DNA is by no means present in every tumor cell. The amount of SV40 DNA in human cancers is apparently so small that it has been difficult to detect the genome consistently in tumors by technology other than the PCR amplification assay, which is prone to error. Finally, the report noted that in those human cancers positively proven to be associated with viruses, the virus is always linked specifically to just one particular type of cancer. In contrast, SV40 is ambiguously linked to many types of cancer. Additional studies are needed, said Dr. Shah, to clarify many of these questions. Dr. Shah summed up by saying, "The possibility that a virus may be involved in the development of a human cancer is strengthened when evidence from many separate lines of enquiry (e.g. epidemiology, pathogenesis, molecular mechanisms) converges to provide a coherent picture of how the infection might lead to cancer. The data on SV40-human cancer association fall far short of this goal. It is premature to discuss or speculate on the potential role of SV40 in the development of human cancer." This study was supported in part by funding from the National Cancer Institute. 07-Feb-2000 A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Milli Dome
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- THE DOME In London England, there has been build a Satanic creation - especially for the Millennium. This is the "Dome", and it has been largely funded by the British National Lottery. It is sited at Greenwich on the Meridian Line, which is on the banks of the Thames. It has now become the centre for NWO mind control, for all those who enter. Happly right now,the Dome has become a financial disaster. The number of visitors, has been seriously reduced. This has meant, the dismissal of the head of the "Millennnium Experience Company". She has now been replaced, by a Walt Disney executive from Paris. He is the man, who has the impossible task, of trying to salvage something from this failed NWO experiment. For those who see the massive construction from afar, it seems to be an alien construction. It stands alone, and does not fit in with the great building heritage of London. The Millenium Dome, has been built on the most polluted ground in the world. As a boy, I went on a school trip to the very same site. This was then the Greenwich Gasworks, as the people of Britain, once had to make their gas out of coal. This was before the discovery of North Sea Gas, and that suddenly made all the old gasworks redundant. The guide was a friendly old gentleman, who survived the First World War, and he told us schoolboys a story that I will never forget. During the Blitz on London, the Lufwaffe bombed the Greenwich Gasworks. They destroyed the large tanks, which were at the time full of tar and creosote. The contents seeped into the ground, and polluted it for ever. This is why the whole area, has been banned for any normal building construction. In fact the ground pollution is so foul, that the Blackwall Tunnel under the Thames, really now does have black walls. So the ground is really bad - and now the gigantic Millennium Dome has been built on it. The creators of this are Michael Hestletine and Peter Mandleson, who are from different political parties - but both of whom are Bilberburgers. At the end of this year, the Dome will be sold off to private interests. It remains to be seen what will come of it, as the negative British press, has seriously reduced the customers. Happily people no longer want to view, this mind control experiment - even though those who do are unwitting dupes. Whatever the outcome, it would be foolish for anyone to enter that Dome - as it is purely reptilian. Yours in LightPeter Froude [EMAIL PROTECTED] We are about to go on a Journey.

[CTRL] Zionist Spy
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- CIA Says Lawyer Failed Polygraph Tests About Israel Was Allegedly Asked If He Gave Away U.S. Secrets Feb. 7, 2000 WASHINGTON (AP) -- A lawyer who claims he was fired by the CIA because of anti-Semitism says he may sue the spy agency. In a television interview, Adam Ciralsky said it was "a matter of principle." However, a CIA memo says Ciralsky failed a pair of lie-detector tests about whether he gave or sold U.S. secrets "to an Israeli national." Clearance revoked Ciralsky, 28, of Milwaukee, joined the spy agency in December 1996 as a contract employee in the Office of General Counsel. By the following October, he'd been placed on unpaid leave. His top-secret security clearance was revoked in July 1998, and he was fired in late 1999. Ciralsky aired his complaints against the agency Sunday night on CBS' 60 Minutes. "The idea that I'm guilty of a lack of candor is ludicrous," he said. But a network interviewer said Ciralsky acknowledged off camera that in a series of polygraphs and interrogations he often challenged the questions and quibbled about legalities. Possible ties to Israeli intelligence The agency said it acted against Ciralsky because he did not fully reveal a relationship with two people holding dual U.S.-Israeli citizenship, both employees of Israeli defense firms with possible ties to Israeli intelligence. Bill Harlow, CIA public affairs director, disputed Ciralsky's allegations of anti-Semitism. He said the allegations had been reviewed by the agency's inspector general, by several congressional panels and by a citizens' review group. The memorandum about Ciralsky's case, first reported Sunday by The Washington Post, was written by Alan Wade, the CIA's associate deputy director for security. Compromising secret info? The memo said Ciralsky failed two polygraph examinations. The questions he was asked, Wade wrote, were about "deliberately compromising U.S. government classified information to an Israeli national, accepting compensation from an Israeli national in exchange for U.S. government classified information, and deliberately concealing from the U.S. government a relationship with an Israeli national." The CIA's Harlow refused to discuss the memo Sunday. He said the agency had been willing to publicly discuss details of Ciralsky's case, but that his lawyers had blocked them from doing so by invoking the Privacy Act.

Re: [CTRL] Fwd: Questions For George Bush Jr.
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- DECLARED STATE OF EMERGENCY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION the United States has been in a state of declared "National Emergency" since 1933. Franklin Roosevelt asked Congress for Emergency War Powers in his first Inaugural Address. Congress quickly gave it to him and the "State of Emergency" has never been cancelled. If this seems incredible, see the conclusions of the Church Senate Committee in 1973 which will tell you the very same thing. In 1995, the Executive Committee of the Republican Party of Texas issued a formal resolution asking Congress to "repeal the state of emergency". That didn't happen of course. Bush Jr. was recently asked by a reporter here in Austin, if he is elected President, would he follow through on the request by his State Party's resolution and cancel the state of emergency. Bush Jr. appeared startled and said that he wouldn't have to abide by any party request or platform. The "Executive Orders" in the story below, stem from this declared "emergency". Implementation of a Global Agenda James L. Hirsen, J.D., Ph.D.November 17, 1999 Executive orders are presently being used at the domestic level to promote a broad international agenda. The current administration has an unfortunate pattern of using executive orders to circumvent the Senate ratification process and enact individual provisions of treaties bit by bit. The strategy of piecemeal treaty implementation has also been utilized in the human rights arena. In December of 1998, President Clinton signed an executive order entitled Implementation of Human Rights Treaties. The language of the executive order seems to have been carefully chosen. It makes the implementation of human rights "obligations" the official policy of the United States government. No distinction was made between obligations that were already duly ratified and those that were not. There are a whole host of conventions that have never been approved by the Senate that this executive order purports to implement. The danger lies in the fact that many of the rudimentary components of so-called human rights treaties are purposely designed to pierce privacy barriers and influence the most intrinsically personal dimensions of our lives - the relationships between parents and children, husbands and wives, and families and homes. For the first time since the 1970s, Congressional hearings on the subjects of executive orders and emergency powers were held in Congress. Remarkably, three pieces of legislation that seek to restore constitutional integrity are presently under consideration. H.R. 2655 is the most comprehensive piece of legislation on this subject. Sponsored by Representative Ron Paul, it terminates all existing states of national emergency, removes from the executive branch any power to declare national emergencies, denies executive orders any force of law, gives individual citizens the right to bring lawsuits objecting to executive orders, and repeals the 1973 War Powers Resolution. H. Con. Res. 30 is a strongly worded resolution sponsored by Representative Jack Metcalf. It states that any executive order, which infringes on the power of Congress or requires the expenditure of unappropriated funds, is advisory only and has no force or effect. H.R. 3131 is a bill sponsored by Representative Bob Barr, which requires that Congress be given copies of any executive order and also be allowed thirty days to accept, reject, or modify the order.

Re: [CTRL] Going Bananas
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Several shipments of bananas from Costa Rica have been infected with necrotizing fasciitis, otherwise known as flesh eating bacteria. Recently this disease has decimated the monkey population in Costa Rica. We are now just learning that the disease has been able to graft itself to the skin of fruits in the region, most notably the Banana which is Costa Rica's largest export. as a biologist - I would be asking how the bacterium actually eats and feeds itself - as it appears to secrete proteolytic enzymes to dissolve its meat - it cannot be having too much fun on a banana skin which is probably mostly cellulose/plant material... it may, however form spores [hibernate] in which case the bananas are not technically 'infected' ie. invaded and that the bacterium has simply hitched a ride without doing the banana any damage. the idea of grafting itself onto the banana is 'interesting' - it implies a biochemical compatibility with cellulose - which someone with basic microbiological details on it could answer in two seconds. I think that if it did like cellulose - it would be the most incredibly virulent plagues that humanity has ever known instead of a rarity. no book, newspaper, piece of wood, autumn leave, flower or grass would be safe if its surviving as a fruit pathogen - then it must be oxidising the sugars, however if it eats meat - is this not an anaerobic process ? ie. reduction, to me - that seems a bit of a contradiction. [but I don't have the accredited qualified opinion on that] It may have been put onto bananas by an infected monkey - but would have to compete for moisture and nutrition against faster growing and better adapted bacteria and fungii - therefore don't fancy its chances much as it would be so outnumbered. do we know that it likes monkey flesh ? I think that any environmental biologist worth their degree could confirm or deny that this is an urban legend - I don't think that any academic microbiologist would be confused as has been suggested - but we still need to ask them. It may also be that this stuff was put out by the European Trade Organisation in an escalation of the banana war with the USA... perhaps a tavistock experiment on the stock market - or an inspired scam - maybe there's a couple of freighters full of african bananas sitting in florida or LA somewhere ?? :) Andrew A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Fwd: Federer Making Second Try To Unseat Gephardt
FYI -- http://www.cnsnews.com/ViewPolitics.asp?Page=\Politics\archive\22\POL2207a.html Federer Making Second Try To Unseat GephardtBy Jim BurnsCNS Senior Staff Writer07 February, 2000(CNSNews.com) - Republican Bill Federer, an Oakville, Missouri author and businessman is making a second try at knocking off House Democratic Leader Dick Gephardt (D-MO) in this fall's election.Despite his 16-point defeat at the hands of Gephardt in the 1998 elections, Federer is optimistic about his chances this year given his improved fundraising efforts, electoral trends and Gephardt's congressional record and greater interest in the race from establishment Republicans.Missouri's third congressional district consists of the south side of the city of St. Louis, the city's southern suburbs and rural St. Genevieve County on the Mississippi River. Politically, the district has voted heavily Democratic since Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal of the 1930s, but Gephardt's popularity has been steadily slipping, according to declining vote tallies in recent campaigns.In 1976, Gephardt won his first term with 81 percent of the vote. By 1996, his reelection margin slipped to 59 percent. Just two years later his reelection margin slipped further to 56 percent after spending over $3million on the campaign. Federer links Gephardt's declining popularity with his straying from a more conservative agenda that reflects the values of his constituents. "When he first ran he was a conservative. It's a conservative district," said Federer. "He co-sponsored a pro-life bill with Henry Hyde, he voted for Reagan's tax cuts. But, then in the mid-80's, he decided he wanted to run for president and he totally abandoned his pro-life Democrats, the people that were supporting him."During Gephardt's early years in Congress, he was pro-life, opposed raising the minimum wage and voted in favor of Ronald Reagan's 1981 tax relief plan, according to National Journal's Almanac of American Politics. But by the 1990's, Gephardt's liberal shift became more apparent when in the 102nd Congress he voted in favor of funding abortions for women in the military overseas, though he did twice vote to override President Bill Clinton's veto of a ban on partial birth abortions. By the 104th Congress he was a supporter of a bill to raise the minimum wage.Gephardt's shift continued leftward, according to Federer, when "He began to vote for bigger taxes, cuts in defense, more federal control of education, federal funding for abortions and Title 10 where you can take a 12-year-old girl across the state border and get her an abortion without the parents knowing about it. These are the radical things that he has done," Federer told CNSNews.com.Gephardt's position on certain issues important to many labor unions could also work against the Democratic leader in his home district. According to Federer, union workers in the district, a strong force in the Democratic Party, have not been treated well by Gephardt."Gephardt is one of the chief promoters of the International Monetary Fund," said Federer. "He's basically taking our tax dollars and sending it to Third World countries and the result is they end up building factories to make stuff cheaper than we can."Repeated calls by CNSNews.com to Gephardt seeking comment on the upcoming race went unreturned.The financial aspects of Federer's campaign are also greatly improved compared with his candidacy of 1998, a year in which Gephardt outspent him by a 17-1 margin."We've raised over a quarter of a million dollars this time, which is more than we spent all of the last race," said Federer, who noted that two years ago Gephardt "spent the fourth largest amount," for a congressional race but "received the lowest re-election margin of his career."Federer also believes Gephardt is vulnerable because he has not lived in the Missouri district he's represented for almost 20 years. Gephardt has maintained a home in Sterling, Virginia, a Washington suburb, and Federer recalled that the Minority Leader's house was featured in an article in the December, 1999 issue of Washingtonian magazine.Federer claims Gephardt has been using his mother's one bedroom apartment in South St. Louis County as his Missouri address even though the house has been vacant since Gephardt's mother moved into a retirement home almost a year ago."You drive by there and its empty," Federer said. "It's his 92-year-old mother's one- bedroom apartment, yet, she's moved into a retirement home, so it's vacant. He has a vacant apartment that he uses. He cannot even fulfill residency requirements in the state."There is more to the race than just who wins Missouri's Third District congressional seat. Republicans have a five-seat razor thin majority in the House and if the GOP is unable to keeps its majority in the November elections, "Speaker Gephardt" may run the next Congress. Federer thinks the idea of a

To explain, the treaty of union which held together the uk by an historic joining of the old kingdoms - asserted that no tax could be introduced in any one kingdom - it had to be multilateral. Thatcher broke the treaty when she introduced the dreaded poll tax into scotland an experiment to see if the rebellious scots could handle it - and if they did - then england and wales were to get it in the neck next. Scotland endured with barely a whimper - so it was introduced into england and wales - suddenly mass riots in english cities - to the famous battle cry of .. 'maggie, maggie, maggie out ! out ! out! ' next good idea - lets dump everybodys nuclear waste in scotland next good idea - lets make everybody in scotland pay lots and lots for their water - shall we say that water is an overabindant resource in scotland. next good idea - lets put an additional tax and toll on important roads - but we will only do this in scotland first - and if there's too much fuss - we can screw our mates in england and wales more efficiently if we learn from the scottish mistakes. next good idea - lets actually promote minority gender lifestyles in schools lets extensively add fluoride to the uk supply lets close all heavy industry in northern britain there is no passion in uk politics - just big homogenous tony who has a total monopoly on uk politics neither first minister of either the welsh or scottish assembly would go to the toilet without his permission. andrew A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- .. From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed]: Conspiracy Shopping Cart: http://a-albionic.com/shopping.htmlFrom: Jim Condit Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [NA] Preliminary Aftermath New Hampshire Primary Analysis Date: Thursday, February 03, 2000 12:44 AM www.networkamerica.org "Those who cast the votes decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything." Communist Tyrant Josef Stalin February 1, 2000 NA (Network America) e-wire Preliminary Aftermath New Hampshire Primary Analysis Before getting into the New Hampshire Primary analysis, on Feb. 1, 2000, day of the New Hampshire Primary, I spent a blitzing half hour on the show of that Radio Lady with the great name: Zoe Hieronimus, heard on AM Stations and the internet. When I went to her website (www.zohshow.com) to get her flagship station, which is 680 WCBM-AM in Baltimore Maryland, I found out she is also heard in Chattahoochie, Fla; Americus, Ge; Murphysboro/Carbondale Illinois; Monroe, Louisiana; Nashua, N.H.; Shelby, N.C.; Raleigh, N.C.; Reno, Nevada; Williamsport, PA; Abbeville, S.C.; and Norfork, VA. WOW!!! and all types of stations over the internet. Since being on the Zoe Show our Network America website has jumped almost 500 hits, which is almost 5% of all the hit weve received since re-animating the website in November, 1998. Incidentally, we have had over 2000 hits, counting the Zoe Show, since running our full page ad in USA Today in western, Iowa 3 days before the Iowa Caucus. Incidentally, one of our heros, Constitution Party candidate Howard Phillips, just happened to be the guest on the Zoe Show in the half hour following my interview. BIG THANKS, Zoe Hieronimus, helping us take a quantum leap forward in spreading the word for a return to honest elections, with citizen checks and balances, throughout the USA. To the New Hampshire Primary: With 70% of the vote counted by hand, we must assume that it would have been too dangerous for anyone to warp the vote NH Primary too much. If it's 5 points added to (elder) Bush and subtracted from Dole in 1988, that's possible. If it's shorting Pat Buchanan by 10 points in 1992 -- with the establishment aware that the Buchanan campaign had no effective ballot watching teams (none as far as we know) -- that's possible. (Please remember that Buchanan and Bush started out with 49% to 49% in early count in 1992 and then Buchanan lost a few percentage points every few hours, while Bush held steady; VERY odd;. Then the next morning the New Hampshire establishment "found" 10,000 ballots, which caused Buchanan to 3% TO 37%, while President Bush held steady at 49%; VERY ODD!) But it would be very risking to mess around with last night's numbers to get the results we see. Also, with all the talk about votescam in the "underground" press, it's possible that behind the scenes, even the establishment campaigns are threatening the Boards of Election in New Hampshire with close inspection. I personally heard a commentator sometimes see on FOX, a lawyer I believe named Ginsburg who was working for W. Bush, half jokingly tell the Story County Board of Elections head at the Ames, Iowa Straw Poll last August, 1999 that W. Bush had the most annoying lawyers in the country, or something to that effect, if they suspect the computer program in an election has been manipulated (Ames, Iowa Straw Poll was counted by computer program). This was minutes after our group had grilled GOP Iowa State Head Kayne Robison before local and cable cameras -- until he said he wouldn't take any more "insulting" questions. (In the big computer states, nobody has a chance to do any behind the scenes observing, and you can bet your bottom dollar none of these establishment candidate will go public with such a concern.) So here are our main observations from New Hampshire Primary 2000: 1. The Democratic Primary doesn't mean a thing, but the establishment probably wants a fight as long as possible (which isn't long). They want this fight in both parties. But, the strategy of closing ranks early and front loading the primaries (which will be over March 7, 2000 for all intents and purposes), will backfire after March 7, as the two Major Party clones put the country to sleep. Into that vacuum will rush Pat Buchanan and maybe other third party candidates. 2. The TV Networks were careful to be careful. They did not call the GOP race for quite a while after the polls closed, as opposed to the instant call usually made -- and which "instant calls" we believe will be made again in the coming 100% computer counted states. Also, no percentages were predicted all night in New Hampshire, the networks not wanting to repeat the unanimous and embarrassing wrong call they made in 1996 (based on Voter News Service exit polls, which feeds ALL four, now all five, big TV

Now think of these chemicals settling through the permafrost and effecting the bacteria Which then warm up. The Pied Piper earthman wrote: -Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Ah, something does not add up here. I thought heat rises. More BS from the scientists. Earth man Europe's Big Melt Underway [Original headline: Bad news for the Alps . . . melting permafrost] Researchers have discovered that Europe's permafrost, the frozen bedrock on which the Alps rest, is melting. Underground ice temperatures rose by more than a degree in the '90s, threatening widespread devastation within the next two decades. Foundations of cable car stations face collapse; mountain slopes, held together by frozen soil, are likely to be swept down valleys; and rock faces will disintegrate. Already several recent Alpine disasters, including the avalanches that killed more than 50 people at the Austrian resort of Galtur last year, are being blamed on the melting of permafrost, scientists say. "It is now clear that rises in atmospheric temperatures are producing significant changes in permafrost levels," said geologist Charles Harris of Cardiff University. "Global warming is changing the nature of weather systems and this is having disproportionate effects on temperatures underground." Atmospheric temperatures round the world rose about 0.2 degrees Celsius last decade, producing a spate of observations about the effects of warming, including signs that Europe's glaciers are shrinking. But now engineers and geologists have discovered a new, alarming effect: air temperature increases are being magnified fivefold underground. A test bore hole, dug in Murtel in southern Switzerland, has revealed that frozen sub-surface soils warmed by 1.2 degrees since 1990. We are getting earlier falls of snow which provide blankets of insulation that keep the soil warm," said Harris. "Summers are also warmer and are heating up the ground more." To try to predict the worst effects, scientists backed by European Union funds have launched a program, Permafrost and Climate in Europe (Pace), to provide a continent-wide survey of threatened permafrost, which is concentrated in Scandinavia, the Alps, the Pyrenees and the Sierra Nevada in Spain. A series of bore holes is being drilled in these areas, and scientists are developing techniques for predicting the effects of permafrost loss on slopes and valleys. A key, and unexpected, instrument in this work will be the centrifuge. "When you spin things round and round very quickly, you create very powerful gravitational fields, and when you place objects in these fields the effects of gravity are speeded up," said another Pace researcher, civil engineer Michael Davies of Dundee University. "We are now building model valleys, and will put them in centrifuges to study what happens when soil is warmed up and the permafrost, which holds the ground together, is destroyed. We will simulate landslides and avalanches." The aim is to find out how to spot early signs of the imminent collapse of buildings and valleys, he said. "Racks and strains, the first evidence that cable stations and other buildings are under threat, may be easy to spot. This gives engineers an opportunity to put things right." On the other hand, the recent wave of avalanches in the Alps suggests it will be a trickier job to spot valley walls and rock faces that are about to crumble and disintegrate. There is no doubt that there is a real danger to human life, thanks to permafrost warming," said Harris. "We want to minimize the destruction."

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- UPDATE:ADL MINDCONTROL ShockTroops PENETRATE IMPREGNATE CIA HQ CIA Says 'Lack of Candor' Led to Firing Memo Says Attorney Failed 2 Polygraph Tests; Agency Denies Antisemitism Charge http://washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/WPlate/2000-02/06/246l-020600-idx.html By Vernon Loeb Washington Post Staff Writer Sunday, February 6, 2000; Page A10 The CIA fired staff attorney Adam J. Ciralsky and revoked his top-secret security clearance in 1998 after he failed two polygraph examinations and exhibited a "lack of candor" about relationships with associates who may have been tied to Israeli intelligence, according to a CIA memorandum. The memorandum was made available by sources familiar with the case in anticipation of Ciralsky's scheduled appearance tonight on the CBS program "60 Minutes"--after months of confrontation with the CIA. Ciralsky's lawyers have alleged that he was singled out for investigation and accused of dual loyalty to Israel because he is an observant Jew. Extensive media coverage and Ciralsky's allegations of CIA antisemitism have already prompted high-level reviews of his case on Capitol Hill and inside the agency. CIA Director George J. Tenet, [himself a Jew], supports Ciralsky's firing. But he apologized last year for "insensitive, unprofessional and highly inappropriate" remarks made by CIA investigators handling Ciralsky's case. Tenet has also ordered senior CIA managers to undergo sensitivity training provided by the Anti-Defamation League. In an e-mail message to CIA employees on Friday, Tenet said "60 Minutes" apparently intended to air "old allegations of antisemitism at the agency." Tenet said that independent reviews found the allegations unsubstantiated, and that "I will not tolerate antisemitism or any other form of discrimination at the agency." CIA spokesman Bill Harrow issued a statement Friday saying that "the agency's actions regarding Mr. Ciralsky were not the result of antisemitism, and his allegations are unfounded." Ciralsky's attorney, Neal M. Sher, the Justice Department's former chief Nazi hunter, said yesterday in an interview that the CIA memorandum is based on information provided by a "thoroughly discredited" source. "The agency, in a written settlement that they proposed to us and then reneged on, were fully prepared to expunge that document," Sher said. "This case is about antisemitism and illegal behavior on the part of the agency." CIA officials said the agency never agreed to expunge the memo. Sher also released several communications posted Friday to an internal CIA bulletin for Jewish employees after Tenet's e-mail message. Those employees said antisemitism is a problem at the agency. "Does anyone know how one would go about informing the [director of central intelligence] directly that some incidents of antisemitism do [exist] and are tolerated?" one of the employees wrote. Wrote another: "The establishment of special focus groups and courses for certain Agency employees all suggest that a serious problem exists." Sher said CIA sources provided him with the unclassified postings by Jewish employees. Harlow said there has been no formal complaint of antisemitism filed by any CIA employee in the past five years. "If there are such complaints, we want to hear about them and deal with them," he said. Ciralsky, 28, a Milwaukee native, started working for the CIA's Office of General Counsel in December 1996. Within days of his arrival, the CIA opened a counterespionage investigation after receiving a report from another agency raising concerns about Ciralsky that were related to his previous employment at a defense contractor. In July 1998, after Ciralsky had taken two polygraph examinations and been interviewed numerous times, the agency revoked his top-secret clearance and effectively terminated his employment for not fully revealing his relationship with two people with dual U.S.-Israeli citizenship who work for Israeli defense firms and have possible ties to Israeli intelligence. CIA investigators determined that Ciralsky failed to disclose his association with one of the dual nationals, whom he met at an international youth meeting in Israel and later introduced to his boss at Berner Lanphier and Associates (BLA), a Washington-area defense contractor, according to the CIA memorandum. The memo, written by Alan C. Wade, the agency's associate deputy director for security, said the meeting brokered by Ciralsky involved the possible sale of Israeli-made combat tank sensors to the Pentagon. Based on information obtained from a BLA employee, Wade also concluded that Ciralsky knew of the dual national's attempts to obtain export-controlled ballistic missile tracking software from BLA, and that the dual national had

Answer: No! --MS] Feb 7, 2000 - 02:35 PM Park Service Investigates Statue of Liberty's Racial Origins By Tom Kirchofer Associated Press Writer BOSTON (AP) - The Statue of Liberty has long stood as a beacon of hope to immigrants. But National Park Service researchers are looking into the possibility that Lady Liberty may have been intended, at least in part, as a monument to freed black slaves. And if that's true, it could lead to a change in how the park service portrays the 114-year-old monument's history. An unsourced text began appearing on the Internet several years ago and quickly spread the theory that the widely accepted history of the Statue of Liberty is not true, says Rebecca M. Joseph, a Boston-based park service anthropologist. The Internet report said that the statue "was intended as a monument to the abolition of slavery in the United States and that the original model was a black woman," according to Joseph. The park service's official history of the Statue of Liberty holds it was proposed by French historian Edouard Laboulaye in 1865 to commemorate the friendship between France and the United States born during the Revolutionary War. But Laboulaye was also a leader of the French abolitionist movement with a commitment to fighting slavery, notes Diane H. Dayson, the statue's superintendent. "Our history states that he was an abolitionist, but we still don't know whether or not it was relative to the Statue of Liberty," she says. "The important thing for us is just to validate the history one way or another." Joseph is now combing archives and libraries here and in France to find out whether Laboulaye also wanted the statue to honor the recently freed slaves. Dayson says he may have conceived the statue with both the slaves and Franco-American friendship in mind. Richard Newman, a research officer at Harvard University's W.E.B. DuBois Institute for Afro-American Research, says it is widely believed in academic circles that Laboulaye meant for the statue to honor the slaves, as well as mark the recent Union victory in the Civil War and the life of Abraham Lincoln. However, by the time sculptor Frederic Auguste Bartholdi's 151-foot statue was erected in New York Harbor in 1886, European immigration had begun to rise dramatically and the statue took on a whole new symbolism, he says. "It was entirely related to slavery, and not about immigration at all," Newman says. "The 'liberty' was the freedom of the slaves." Joseph also is checking into the possibility a 21-inch model of Lady Liberty completed by Bartholdi in 1870 may have been based on the likeness of a black woman. That model, now in the Museum of the City of New York, has a broken chain around its hand; the statue in the harbor has a more discreet broken shackle on its foot. Joseph refused Monday to say what she has discovered so far. Her final report is due for release this summer. "Those people who are looking for a report that's going to support the most traditional interpretation of the Statue of Liberty are going to be disappointed," she said, "and those who are looking for a report that will support the rumors in their entirety will also be disappointed.

It's not a sound bite." = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] A Brief History of Space Aliens, Cosmic Vampires and Mad Gods
-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- I like this. earthamn An extract from: A Brief History of Space Aliens, Cosmic Vampires and Mad Gods. The inorganic beings are like fishermen; they attract and catch awareness. -Carlos Castaneda, The Art of Dreaming There is a kind of net that is as old as Methuselah, as soft as a cobweb and as full as holes, yet it has retained its strength to this day. When a demon wearies of chasing after yesterdays or of going round in circles on a windmill, he can install himself inside a mirror. There he waits like a spider in its web, and the fly is certain to be caught." -Isaac Bashevis Singer, The Mirror Within the invisible realm, the Imaginal or archetypal world (often called the "astral plane," which is really only the first layer of the onion), every act and every word, past, present and future, leaves its traces, like threads or pathways in the void, which is why there is no void to speak of. Scientists now admit (freely) that 99% of the physical universe is invisible, even incomprehensible, to our five senses (they call this "dark matter"), in which case, they have no choice but to also admit that the question of other-"spiritual" or "magikal"-dimensions must be left entirely open, at this time To the paranoid, it seems more sensible by far to assume that such realms do exist than to dismiss the possibility outright, convinced as he is that "all things disregard or deny that which will eventually invade and destroy them." (Charles Fort) Sooner or later, these Imaginal "intelligences" must be encountered, at which point they will be found-paranoid awareness maintains-to be far closer than we could ever have conceived in our wildest dreams, or indeed, our deepest, darkest nightmares. In the words of the don of paranoid awareness, William Burroughs: This is obviously one aspect of a big picture...what looks like a carefully worked out blueprint for invasion of the planetThe "Other Half" is an organism. Word is an organism. The presence of the "Other Half" a separate organism attached to your nervous system on an air line of words can now be demonstrated experimentally. One of the most common "hallucinations" of subjects during sense withdrawal is the feeling of another body sprawled through the subject's body at an angle...The word may once have been a healthy neural cell. It is now a parasitic organism that invades and damages the central nervous system. Modern man has lost the option of silence...In the beginning was the word In the beginning of what exactly?...What we call history is the history of the word. In the beginning of THAT history was the word...The life-line of control addicts is the control word-That is these so-called Gods can only live without three-dimensional coordinate points by forcing three-dimensional bodies on others-Their existence is pure vampirism-They are utterly unfit to be officers. (The Ticket That Exploded) What Burroughs implies here is essentially no different from what esoteric-cum-paranoid lore has always maintained: that within this Imaginal realm are found "beings" that, for whatever reasons, are lacking the emotional awareness necessary to "make the grade" as autonomous agents (officers), hence they are trapped, as it were, waiting patiently over the aeons like fishermen with lines cast, for any wayward beings whose experience, or "life essence," they may poach and devour. In order to make such a parasitical program as this imagined by the paranoid possible, these "beings" (call them grays, demons, or vampires ) have, over an unimaginably long period of time, woven an intricate and ingenious web on the "astral" planes (i.e., about the etheric grid of the Earth), and it is within this "web" or snare that the human inhabitants of the planet have-in the dark vision of the paranoid-been collectively entangled. These beings are busy greedily hording the awareness which they themselves are lacking, keeping it from us, and so condemning us to a similar fate to their own: a honey-comb existence of solitary confinement and isolation, in the flesh and within the narrow confines of ego-consciousness, with strictly set expiration dates, and no possibility of renewal. Paranoid awareness is fairly unanimous on this point: by way of mythic engineering at all levels-psychic, social, and political-we have been rendered as docile livestock to be farmed and harvested, not only for our flesh and blood, but, in traditional terminology, for our very souls. Thus fallen into the clutches of these "beings," the human race has become the host of an insidious parasite species which is feeding off his vital essence like a baby at the breast, slowly sucking away all of his life force. The result has been the collapse of his own aura (i.e., immune system), and consequently the rapid decay of his physical body, as it succumbs to the devastating effects of such close contact with the alien "body," or virus.
