What is emerging through a mapping of the pools of money (mutual funds, endowments such as Harvard, Fidelity, IDS) along with key corporations (Cargill, oils, Lockheed, DynCorp) is how the NWO networks are organized. Last night I was listening to Uri's interview on Rense's radio show. He was really good. I realized that the DynCorp contract is for the War on Drugs in Columbia, Peru and Bolivia. Last year I heard three peasant women describe the War on Drugs in their countries, Columbina Peru and Bolivia. I asked "after they sweep you into camps, who gets the land and at what price." It was like I opened a magic door. They poured out how the War on Drugs was a great big land grab. Then they said..."How did you know how it worked in our countries?" And I said, "because it works the same here" I had no idea that Dyncorp was the knowledge manager and administrative support team in those three countries and in all 50 states of the US, all with Pug coordinating with Harvard and the Council on Foreign Relations. One team, one plan.....I guess what that is what they mean when they say one world government.... Whatever game is being played around the real estate at HUD by US attorney offices-HUD IG and the DOJ Asset Forfeiture Fund, it is much simpler and more integrated then we knew..... Another thing I realized listening to Rense's response to some of Uri's stories----and this is so perfectly seen in the movie The Patriot---is that people's boundary is not the country or their community...its their home. There is a myth that if we keep our mouths shut and mind our own business that we will be allowed to have a home and will be safe there other than from random lower class criminals.....the realization that the value of our home and our property rights can be and are being abrograted at will by a federal government agency, that innocent people are being taken from their homes and taken to prison, that the homes are being seized, that government pouring drugs in means that ones home is not safe or santified and nothing you can do can make it that way...... That seems to me the thing that triggers concern, anger, action.... > -----Original Message----- > From: Linda Minor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, August 04, 2000 10:09 AM > To: Catherine Austin Fitts > Subject: IDS and Cargill > > > Lynne Cheney is also on the board of IDS, which appears to be > controlled by > Cargill and American Express. > > IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP Principal Executive Office > 901 Marquette Avenue South, Suite 2810 > Minneapolis, MN 55402-3268 > NOTICE OF REGULAR MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS > TO BE HELD JUNE 16, 1999 RETAIL FUNDS: > IDS Bond Fund, Inc.IDS California Tax-Exempt Trust > - IDS California Tax-Exempt FundIDS Discovery Fund, Inc. > IDS Equity Select Fund, Inc.IDS Extra Income Fund, Inc. > IDS Federal Income Fund, Inc.IDS Global Series, Inc. > - IDS Emerging Markets Fund - IDS Global Balanced Fund > - IDS Global Bond Fund - IDS Global Growth FundIDS Growth Fund, Inc. > - IDS Growth Fund - IDS Research Opportunities Fund > IDS High Yield Tax-Exempt Fund, Inc.IDS International Fund, Inc. > IDS Investment Series, Inc. - IDS Diversified Equity Income Fund - IDS > Mutual > IDS Managed Retirement Fund, Inc. - IDS Managed Allocation Fund > IDS Market Advantage Series, Inc. - IDS Blue Chip Advantage Fund > - IDS Small Company Index FundIDS Money Market Series, Inc. > - IDS Cash Management FundIDS New Dimensions Fund, Inc. > IDS Precious Metals Fund, Inc.IDS Progressive Fund, Inc.IDS > Selective Fund, > Inc. > IDS Special Tax-Exempt Series Trust - IDS Insured Tax-Exempt Fund > - IDS Massachusetts Tax-Exempt Fund - IDS Michigan Tax-Exempt Fund > - IDS Minnesota Tax-Exempt Fund - IDS New York Tax-Exempt Fund > - IDS Ohio Tax-Exempt FundIDS Stock Fund, Inc.IDS Strategy Fund, Inc. > - IDS Equity Value Fund - IDS Strategy Aggressive Fund > IDS Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Inc. - IDS Intermediate Tax-Exempt Fund > - IDS Tax-Exempt Bond FundIDS Tax-Free Money Fund, Inc. > IDS Utilities Income Fund, Inc.
