-Caveat Lector- -----Original Message----- From: DSharp673 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Newsgroups: alt.conspiracy.jfk Date: Saturday, January 16, 1999 2:02 PM Subject: Clinton is irrelevant. Trial is not. >As far as I�m concerned, President Clinton�s fate is irrelevant, but a >full-scale impeachment trial is badly needed. America is at a crossroads. We >must now decide if honesty matters, if ethics matters, if truth matters, if >justice matters. > >The United States government spends billions of dollars each year training >citizens to lie. Skilled lying techniques are required if you want to work for >the CIA, FBI, NSA and other U.S. spy agencies. It has been written that "lies >and deception are the CIA�s stock-in-trade." Clearly President Clinton is not >only a shameless liar, but he is apparently a skilled, trained liar. The >question is: Do we want skilled trained liars as our presidents? If not, we >must also ask: Why do we spend billions training CIA types to lie? > >A trial is needed not only to determine if President Clinton lied, committed >perjury, obstructed justice, whatever; it is needed to sort out what our nation >really stands for. By defending Clinton, Democrats give the impression that >they have no sense of morality, ethics or honor. On the other hand, >Republicans are quick to lecture Clinton for a pattern of lies and deception, >but Republicans collectively support agencies like the CIA, FBI, NSA; more-so >than Democrats. And as I stated previously, these agencies train people to >lie. > >It is clear that many politicians of both parties feel that lying is acceptable >under certain circumstances. For Democrats, lying about sex is acceptable. >For Republicans, lying about sex is just as serious as anything else. But >neither party�particularly Republicans�believes lying in matters of national >security is wrong. Neither party�particularly Republicans�believes training >people to lie is wrong, so long as those people are U.S. spies. It has been >suggested that President Clinton was groomed for his presidency by the CIA. >(Reference "Partners in Power" by Roger Morris.) Therefore it is reasonable to >presume that the CIA provided Clinton with extensive training about the art of >lying. > >That puts us in a conundrum. At what point are lies and deception >unacceptable? Is it okay for CIA employees, but bad for presidents? What if a >CIA employee becomes president? Would it be fair to expect a CIA-trained liar >to suddenly become another "Honest Abe?" Unfortunately, people don�t change >that easily. > >It�s time to do some soul searching. I can think of no better forum to deal >with the national epidemic of lying than a full-scale impeachment trial. >Mendacity permeates every crack and crevice of our republic like termites >slowly destroying the foundation of a once solid family dwelling. In my >opinion, the national cult of mendacity began with the assassination of >President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963 and has festered ever since. >Ironically President Clinton claims that Kennedy is one of is American heroes. >One has to wonder, is Clinton sincere or is this more political positioning? > >We desperately need public debates on many troubling topics during the ongoing >impeachment trial. Here are but a few examples things to discuss: > >1. Why did Clinton attack Iraq on the eve of the House impeachment vote? > >2. Why is no one discussing Patrick Knowlton�s addendum to Ken Starr�s >Whitewater report? (Patrick Knowlton was a witness in the Vince Foster case >and is suing the government, charging that Ken Starr and the FBI harassed him >because his testimony indicated that Foster may have been murdered. A three >judge panel forced Starr to attach Knowlton�s addendum to the Starr Report. >Not one single newspaper has reported this.) > >3. What are Monica Lewinsky�s ties to Israel? Was she working on behalf of >Israel when she seduced President Clinton? > >4. Investigate Roger Morris� suggestion that a young Bill Clinton was >recruited by the CIA to participate in Operation Chaos where he worked as an >informant, monitoring the activities of anti-Vietnam organizers for student >rallies abroad and reporting his findings back to the CIA. In exchange, he >would have been given a draft deferment along with political opportunities. > >5. Why did the BATF really attack the Branch Davidians in 1993? Initially they >claimed they were afraid the Davidians were about to commit mass-suicide like >Jim Jones� cult group in Jonestown. Later, after the Davidians allegedly >committed suicide by setting themselves on fire while being attacked by the FBI >using military tanks, Attorney General Janet Reno stated, "We had no idea they >were suicidal." > >6. Why has seismographic evidence been ignored in the Oklahoma City Bombing? >Two seismographs recorded the blast and indicated there were two separate >events. This has been hushed up by the news media. Why? > >7. Why have few books been written about Israel�s involvement in the Kennedy >assassination? Why has little been written about former Israeli Prime Minister >David Ben-Gurion�s hatred of Kennedy and the feud they had over Ben-Gurion� s >secret efforts to arm Israel with nuclear weapons? Why has little been written >about Ben-Gurion�s friendship with Canadian Zionist and billionaire Sam >Bronfman? Why has little been written about Bronfman�s lawyer, Louis >Bloomfield, who worked for the CIA, British Intelligence and was likely a >Mossad agent? Why has little been written about Bloomfield�s connection to Lee >Harvey Oswald through business ties with Oswald�s handler, Clay Shaw? >Bloomfield and Shaw were board members of Permindex, an international trade >corporation used to funnel money to covert operations internationally. Why was >Bronfman biographer Terence Robertson murdered in 1970? His Bronfman biography >was never finished, although he told friends he had stumbled onto information >the Bronfmans didn�t want him to know. > >We need to set the record straight on these and other issues once and for all. >Some politicians think the impeachment trial is bad for the country. >Democratic Senator Charles Schumer, for example, claims that we need a quick >trial without any witnesses because we need to get this embarrassing scandal >behind us. What Schumer and others are really saying is, "Let�s play a game >called make-believe. Let�s pretend black is white and white is black." > >Many politicians and journalists are familiar with the topics I listed and >would like to address them, but are afraid to speak out for fear of losing >their careers, or even their lives. > >America is at a crossroads. The impeachment trial is much bigger than >President Clinton. It is giving us an opportunity to correct many past >injustices, to get America on track again. It is also an opportunity to decide >if truth, honor, and justice really matter. If it does, we must recognize that >we are a sick nation and President Clinton is but a symptom of our disease. > >---- Dave Sharp > > DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
