What Does A Backwards American Flag With Yellow 
Fringe Mean?

Free Press International Commentary
2.11.2005

I do not claim to know everything about the 
backwards American flag with
yellow fringe but this articles purpose is to find 
the truth, hopefully with
some of FPIs readers.

Every soldier in the Army must now wear the U.S. 
flag insignia on his or her
utility uniform, according to a new Army rule. 
Soldiers have until Oct. 1,
2005, to get the insignia sewn on their 
uniforms.

The flag Schoomaker has authorized for wear is the 
"reverse field" or
"backwards flag" patch, in red, white and blue with 
yellow fringe.

I have gone over World War I,World War II and 
Vietnam pictures and have yet
to find an American flag on their combat 
uniforms.

Army Regulation 670-1states that when authorized 
for application to the
proper uniform the American flag patch is to be 
worn, right or left
shoulder, so that “the star field faces forward, or 
to the flag’s own right.
When worn in this manner, the flag is facing to the 
observer’s right, and
gives the effect of the flag flying in the breeze 
as the wearer 'moves
forward'. The appropriate replica for the right 
shoulder sleeve is
identified as the ‘reverse side flag’.”

This makes no sense. What if the soldiers are 
marching 'downwind'?

As one person wrote, The "backwards flag" is no 
silly affectation. It is
part of a well-planned and coordinated effort to 
subvert our national
sovereignty. As pointed out, reversing the display 
of a nation's flag can
sometimes result in the flag becoming that of 
another nation. At any rate,
it ceases to be a legally emblematic of the 
sponsoring nation. It is part of
the body of the International Laws of Warfare that 
combatants not PROPERLY
displaying the flag of their nation on their 
uniforms are not considered to
be under the command and control of that nation. 
All this nonsense about a
flag emblem sewn on a uniform not looking like a 
flag on a pole moving
backwards is the most ridiculous and transparent 
non-reason that I can
imagine to try to disguise the real intent. No 
rational 7-year old would buy
such idiocy, but most adults will because they have 
had more years of
government indoctrination. Because we are fighting 
a worldwide "War on
Terrorism", surrender of any and all of our rights, 
individual as well as
national, is expected and will, almost universally, 
be gladly given. Martial
law under a high-tech police state is just around 
the corner, folks.

As to the yellow fringe on our flags, APFN states, 
The flags displayed in
State courts and courts of the United States have 
gold or yellow fringes.
That is your WARNING that you are entering into a 
foreign enclave, the same
as if you are stepping into a foreign embassy and 
you will be under the
jurisdiction of that flag. The flag with the gold 
or yellow fringe has no
constitution, no laws, and no rules of court, and 
is not recognized by any
nation on the earth, and is foreign to you and the 
United States of America.

[cia-drugs] SECRET PLAN TO QUIT IRAQ

2005-07-09 Thread Vigilius Haufniensis





http://www.drudgereport.com/flash.htm
 
SECRET PLAN TO 
QUIT IRAQ Sat Jul 09 2005 19:16:16 ETBRITAIN and America are 
secretly preparing to withdraw most of their troops from Iraq - despite warnings 
of the grave consequences for the region, the SUNDAY MAIL in UK is 
reporting.A secret paper written by UK Defence Secretary John Reid for 
Tony Blair reveals that many of the 8,500 British troops in Iraq are set to be 
brought home within three months, with most of the rest returning six months 
later.The leaked document, marked Secret: UK Eyes Only, appears to fly 
in the face of Mr Blair and President Bush's pledges that Allied forces will not 
quit until Iraq's own forces are strong enough to take control of 
security.If British troops pull out, other members of the Alliance are 
likely to follow. The memo says other international forces in Southern Iraq 
currently under British control will have to be handled carefully if Britain 
withdraws. It says they will not feel safe and may also leave. 
Embarrassingly, the document says the Americans are split over the plan 
- and it suggests one of the reasons for getting British troops out is to save 
money. Mr Reid says cutting UK troop numbers to 3,000 by the middle of next year 
will save GBP 500million a year, though it will be 18 months before the cash 
comes through.The document, Options For Future UK Force Posture In Iraq, 
is the first conclusive proof that preparations for a major withdrawal from Iraq 
are well advanced.The British Government's public position is that UK 
troops will stay until newly trained Iraqi forces are ready to take control of 
security. Less than a fortnight ago, Mr Blair said it was 'vital' the US-led 
coalition stayed until Iraq stabilised, and Mr Bush endorsed his comments. 
Mr Reid's memo, prepared for Mr Blair in the past few weeks, shows that 
in reality, plans to get them out - 'military drawdown,' as he puts it - are 
well advanced.It says: 'We have a commitment to hand over to Iraqi 
control in Al Muthanna and Maysan provinces two of the four provinces under 
British control in Southern Iraq in October 2005 and in the other two, Dhi Qar 
and Basra, in April 2006.Developing...

Potsmokers almost NEVER get leukemia. Asthma also goesaway. If you can't breathe from bad flu, it will alsobe cured quite fast, because it has antibioticproperties.But I celebrate its anti-seizure properties, which gotme a scholarship to college at age 15! I hadundiagnosed epilepsy, my seizures did not becomevisible to others until I had the first 'biggie' atage 20. For the first time in my life, at 14, I wascalm and able to study well, usually while waiting formy boyfriend and the joints. I stopped
 bullyingothers, and making money in nasty ways. I had evenbullied my teachers around, and other adults, too! Ofcourse, the epilepsy also gave me a body that looked18 at age 9, which makes one an immediate victim ofsexual harrassment, and only a snake's tongue can keepthose perverts away. And no one can say that pot leads you into otherdrugs: I started with cocaine, which was great for meat first (Freud also loved it for his epilepsy, but itis worse in the long term). I spent about 6 monthsgoing to school to snort the first pure coke at 8am.When I met Ms. Marihuana, the coke seemed like trash,good only as a female 'Viagra' (the song 'gasolina' byrapper Daddy Yankee is based on this effect, and Ihave seen MANY foreign oil company execs here buyingcoke to get girls, usually under 15).Before, I had avoided the pot as a 'trashy' drug,while the coke seemed so pure and clean... BUT, that'sbecause we took it
 from large bricks of pure coke thatpasses through this city on its way to Aruba-Europe,or Carribbean sea-USA. I'm writing a novel about ourlives as children in that strange group of kids joinedby our love for Ozzy Osbourne. Over 12 people havewanted to write the story, but only 3-4 of theoriginal 'Old Guard' kids of that group are stillalive- including myself.For my problem, cannabis has been used as medicationfor over 8000 years!!One problem in the USA- the illegal pot made geneticengineering of pot seeds popular, for higher THCcontent- but its medical properties are usually fromOTHER cannabinoids, not the THC that makes someone'high'. SO that USA pot is contaminated with geneticengineering in its most pure, uncontrolled form.

Soldiers have until Oct. 1,2005, to get the insignia sewn on their uniforms.The flag Schoomaker has authorized for wear is the "reverse field" or"backwards flag" patch, in red, white and blue with yellow fringe.I have gone over World War I,World War II and Vietnam pictures and have yetto find an American flag on their combat uniforms.Army Regulation 670-1states that when authorized for application to theproper uniform the American flag patch is to be worn, right or leftshoulder, so that “the star field faces forward, or to the flag’s own right.When worn in this manner, the flag is facing to the observer’s right, andgives the effect of the flag flying in the breeze as the wearer 'movesforward'. The appropriate replica for the right shoulder sleeve isidentified as the ‘reverse side flag’.”This makes no sense. What if the soldiers are marching 'downwind'?As one person wrote, The "backwards flag" is no silly affectation. It ispart of a well-planned and coordinated effort to subvert our nationalsovereignty. As pointed out, reversing the display of a nation's flag cansometimes result in the flag becoming that of another nation. At any rate,it ceases to be a legally emblematic of the sponsoring nation. It is part ofthe body of the International Laws of Warfare that combatants not PROPERLYdisplaying the flag of their nation on their uniforms are not considered tobe under the command and control of that nation. All this nonsense about aflag emblem sewn on a uniform not looking like a flag on a pole movingbackwards is the most ridiculous and transparent non-reason that I canimagine to try to disguise the real intent. No rational 7-year old would buysuch idiocy, but most adults will because they have had more years ofgovernment indoctrination. Because we are fighting a worldwide "War onTerrorism", surrender of any and all of our rights, individual as well asnational, is expected and will, almost universally, be gladly given. Martiallaw under a high-tech police state is just around the corner, folks.As to the yellow fringe on our flags, APFN states, The flags displayed inState courts and courts of the United States have gold or yellow fringes.That is your WARNING that you are entering into a foreign enclave, the sameas if you are stepping into a foreign embassy and you will be under thejurisdiction of that flag. The flag with the gold or yellow fringe has noconstitution, no laws, and no rules of court, and is not recognized by anynation on the earth, and is foreign to you and the United States of America.more informationMILITARY FLAG WITH THE GOLD FRINGEMartial Law Flag "Pursuant to 4 U.S.C. chapter 1, §§1, 2, & 3; ExecutiveOrder 10834, August 21, 1959; 24 F.R.6865; a military flag is a flag thatresembles the regular flag of the United States, except that it has a YELLOWFRINGE border on three sides.

And his focus is not only Bush, but Clinton. Not only the USA, but Europe and Britain. As for his discussion of the hijackers - I've never read such a detailed and well documented account of the odd liaisons between the US military intelligence services and the alleged 9/11 hijackers. Ahmed doesn't bother going round in circles wondering whether or not the hijackers existed, or were actually on the plane, or not - he simply presents report after report showing that these guys were monitored round-the-clock by the CIA and FBI both before and after their entry into our country, were trained by the US military, and were steeped in completely anti islamic practices like alcohol, cocaine, and lap dancing. And he clearly suggests, at one point, that these guys were probably double agents, although with characteristic and welcome caution, he doesn't labour the point and again leaves it to us to make up our own minds.

[cia-drugs] Re: [Writers Forum] Clerics issued fatwa against bin Laden

2005-07-09 Thread Homi Wadia






Source: Free Internet Press"Muslim clerics in Spain issued an unprecedented fatwa, or Islamicedict, against Osama bin Laden on Thursday, calling him an apostate and demanding other Muslim leaders to condemn the al-Qaeda acts."Did you hear about that famous saying, "Fools your reward is neither hear nor there?"
Yes, these stupid clerics are nothing but pawns in the hands of the Western Mafia and 
utterly brain-washed by their White-supremist Masters. Who is Bin Laden? Where is he?
Who syas that he is the one planting bombs here, there and everywhere and killing people?
 
Where is the proof that Al-Qaeda exist and that Osama is its head? Where is the proof that
the bombings in London were the doings of Al-Qaeda? So, if the sick, evil-minded and racist Western media, who absolutely hate Muslims, blame it on Muslims and the so-called Al-Qaeda, the Muslim clerics in Spain, ignorant bunch of idiots, too eat the shit of the demonic Wester Press and pass stupid Fatwa!!!
 
Does not Islam and Quran say rhat there must be a categorical and absolute proof before you startb throwing stones at those whome you hold as suspects? 
 
The real terrorists and perpetrators of crimes against humanity are - WMD Bush and his 'poodle' Blair, CIA, FBI, Mossad and MI5. Thses barbarians and evil criminals have callously,
ruthlessly, meticulously and deliberately carried ouit the carnage in London to boost their gutter image and waning popularity and to divert the world's attention from the stage-manged show carried out in Singapore where Billions of Dollars changed hands to give London the Olympics of 2012. They did it in New York on 9/11, they did it in Madrid and they did it in London on 7/7. These stuopid clerics in Spain should issue Fatwa against these
international criminals, the predators of humanity and human values and the murderers of 
peace and security in our world - these blood-thirst vermins, Bush, Blar, CIA, FBI, Mossad, and MI5 - must be condemned and brought before the International Court of Justice.

A Bit of History
Sissieretta Jones (1869-1933)


Born January 5, 1869 in Portsmouth, Virginia to African Methodist Episcopal
minister Jeremiah Malachi Joyner and Henrietta Beale Joyner, Matilda
Sissieretta Joyner became American's leading prima donna. In 1876, her
family moved to Providence, Rhode Island, where she attended the Meeting
Street and Thayer Schools. At age fourteen (14), Sissieretta married David
Jones, a news dealer and hotel bellman.

A soprano, she began formal music training with Ada Baroness Lacombe at the
Providence Academy of Music in1883. At age 18, she attended the New England
Conservatory in Boston and studied with Flora Batson, the leading singer of
the Bergen Star Company.

While performing at the Music Hall in 1887, concert managers Abbey, Schoffel
and Grau saw Sissieretta and brought her to New York, where she successfully
debuted at the Wallack Theater in 1888. The manager of famed Italian
operatic star Adelina Patti recommended she tour with the Tennessee Jubilee
Singers of Fisk University. While touring with the Fisk University Singers,
she received the first of many medals she wore during her performances at
home and abroad.

Sissieretta performed for three presidents at the White House and before the
Prince of Wales. She toured South America and Europe, appearing at the
Wintergarten in Berlin and Covent Garden, England. She appeared with Antonín
Dvorák and was the first black to perform at Carnegie Concert Hall. After
her appearance in the "Grand African Jubilee" at Madison Square Garden in
New York (1892), Sissieretta drew international acclaim. Stunned by the New
York Clipper's theatrical critic racially categorizing her as "the Black
Patti" - referring to Italian soprano Adelina Patti- Sissieretta insisted on
being called "Madame Jones."

Her many gifts from admirers included a medal from President Hippolyte of
Haiti, a bar of diamonds and emeralds from the citizens of St. Thomas, an
emerald shamrock from the Irish people of Providence, and a diamond tiara
from the governor-general in the West Indies. She often wore 17 medals
across her chest during performances. Following her European tour,
Sissieretta noticed she encountered far less racial prejudice there than in
the United States. "It matters not to them the color of an artist's skin. If
a man or a woman is a great actor, musician or singer, they will extend a
warm welcome. It is the soul they see, not the color of the skin."

Although Sissieretta signed a contract with Major J.B. Pond, manager of
well-known singers and lecturers, that raised her fees to as high as $2,000
for a week's appearance at the Pittsburgh Exposition, the highest ever paid
to a Black artist, her compensation did not compare to Adelina Patti's
$4,000 a night. Racism controlled black success. The Metropolitan Opera
considered her for a leading role but rejected her because of her skin
color.

Frustrated that racism limited venues for black artists, Sissieretta formed
a troupe known as the Black Patti Troubadours. It combined vaudeville,
minstrel, musical review and grand opera. For almost 20 years, Sissieretta
performed excerpts from such operas as Lucia, Il Trovatore, Martha, Faust,
and El Capitan.

Sissieretta became ill in 1913 and retired to Providence, where she devoted
her later years to church work and caring for homeless children and her
ailing mother. She died on June 24, 1933 at age 74 in Rhode Island. (Source:

Comments from the Bat Cave


The Dark Knight-Batman/White Ninja/Zorro is experiencing the joys of summer
with a twist. He is working on Saturdays with a family member. When asked
for comments, the Dark One/Ninja/Zorro, who normally avoids work like the
plague, remarked, "It's work! But, a man needs money is his pockets!"



Minstrels, Blackface and Movies
By John Burl Smith

History shows American theater began aboard slave ships that brought
Africans to the Americas. Those "performances" were compulsory. Slavers
forced blacks to dance and sing while crossing the "Middle Passage." Such
notables as James Weldon Johnson and W.E.B. Du Bois believed that minstrelsy
"constituted the 'only completely original contribution' of America to the
theater." Minstrel shows developed during the 19th

Itjust came out of the blue," Clarke told Sky News television.British newspapers focused on the status of the security services, andhighlighted a recent decision to downgrade the terror threat level to itslowest point since the September 2001 attacks on New York and Washington."The timing of Thursday's seemingly co-ordinated attacks on the capital'stransport system appears to have exploited a weak link in the chain ofintelligence and a fatal lapse in security," the Financial Times said.Clarke said the alert status system would be re-examined, but he deniedclaims that London's security had been compromised because police officerswere deployed to Scotland for the G8 summit."Obviously it was wrong. We have looked very carefully at the threat we arenow under, particularly in the light of events yesterday, and the threatlevel will be increased," he said."We will reinforce all our efforts to minimise the chances of any otherterrorist attack being successful."-__ ___ _ ___ __ ___ _ _ _ __  /-_|-0-\-V-/-\|-|-__|-|-|-/-_| \_-\--_/\-/|-\\-|-_||-V-V-\_-\ |__/_|--//-|_|\_|___|\_A_/|__/  SPY NEWS is OSINT newsletter and discussion list associated to Mario's Cyberspace Station - The Global Intelligence News Portal http://mprofaca.cro.net CAUTION! # Since you are receiving and reading documents, news stories,comments and opinions not only from so called (or self-proclaimed) "reliable sources", but also a lot of possible misinformation collectedby Spy News moderator and subscribers and posted to Spy Newsfor OSINT purposes - it should be a serious reason (particularly tojournalists and web publishers) to think twice before using it for theirstory writing, further publishing or forwarding throughout Cyberspace.To unsubscribe:mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]*** FAIR USE NOTICE: This message contains copyrighted material whose use has not been specifically authorized by the copyright owner.

Placed at the pinnacle of the greatest military empire in human history, its wealth and reach unimaginable in Caesar's day, equipped with every conceivable advantage that the very most powerful, influential cabals of rulership and commerce and warmaking can bestow, all of their collective beneficence concentrated behind his every purpose, yet he will fail. Say what you will about the accomplices secretly running the show: Bush himself is the president. He is no dupe. A slobbering cretin nearly incapable of forming a coherent thought, or of operating a bicycle on a hill without running over a policeman; a feckless, soulless meta-bureaucrat with the attention span of a hydroencephalitic flea preoccupied with revenge, machismo, booze, and proving to his father he's not a latent homosexual: these things he indubitably is. But he's not a puppet merely. It is his magical ability to wrest defeat from the jaws of victory that will end America's unsuitable world domination. Then we can get on with averting the next ice age. Far too late to save what's left of the world as we know it, but that's the cosmic joke our species seems never to get, no matter how often the punch line is repeated.Bush is only the latest of many such necessary evildoers. There's always somebody. Hitler, an even more egregious schmekel than G.W. Bush, was the inevitable instrument of the destruction of Europe as it had been known for a thousand years. Things simply could not remain as they were, and he saw to it that they didn't. The Great War wasn't enough of a hint for those old countries whose pastime it had long been to annex each other and swap royal bloodlines, feeding their various empires on the flesh of distant lands. So along came Hitler with WWII. Unfortunately America, which came late to both World Wars, got to feeling superior and decided an empire could be done properly: it just needed to be run by folks that were elected, not handed the job through fortunate birth. We set about the task, our elected leaders passing the torch from one grasping claw to the next, and built up a pretty good portfolio of client states and resource-rich territories outside our borders. That showed those old-Europe types!Here's the problem. Empire is the sole purpose and certain downfall of political power. We got our post-European empire sure enough, paddling around in various bits of Asia before settling on oil-rich climes at the buckle between Eurasian shirt and African trousers. We got fat and complacent and began to believe our own press about the goodness and greatness and rightness of America, her jiggle & kill blow-dried Surfer Jesus playtime commercial culture, anaesthetic low-calorie pilsner beers, and infinite opportunity for the right blend of complexion and connection. We began to imagine we were shaping the world to fit our image. This is the first symptom of a dying empire. Check out this kickin' toga, bro. Pretty soon everybody will be wearing them instead of pants. Hey, are those Visigoths? The second symptom is when the leaders start electing themselves by divine right or noble blood. The final symptom is that the popular weal ceases to be a factor in governance. One might argue that most empires were founded and maintained without the popular weal being considered at all, but this is simplistic. Empires rely on a mutual parasitism between leaders and people: you send us to war, we get cheap resources (or Poland). That sort of thing. Eventually, the rulers start running the show entirely for their own benefit, putting increasing downward pressure on the populace until society breaks down like my Fiat Cinquecento. Bingo! The spoils of a sprawling, resource-grabbing common enterprise have been diverted to a self-selecting few. The ticks are exsanguinating the hyena. What's next? A leader must emerge from the top ranks to ruin everything, pronto.That leader is George W. Bush. He brings his gift of failure to our nation and the world. That is the real similarity between him and Adolf Hitler. And various Caesars. And Richard of the Crusades. They come along at a time when empires need collapsing, after which the common business of mankind can proceed. That said, I'm hoping he gets it over with soonI'd look awful in a toga.Ben Tripp is an independent filmmaker and all-around swine.

And we had a room full of crisis managers for the first time they'd met and so within five minutes we made a pretty rapid decision that this is the real one and so we went through the correct drills of activating crisis management procedures to jump from slow time to quick time thinking and so on.Click here for a clip of this dialogue. Click here for a longer clip where the comments can be heard in their full context.The fact that the exercise mirrored the exact locations and times of the bombings is light years beyond a coincidence. Power said the drill focused around 'simultaneous bombings'. At first the bombings were thought to have been spread over an hour, but the BBC reports just today that the bombings were in fact simultaneous.Mr. Power (pictured above) and Visor Consultants need not have been 'in on the bombing' or anything of that nature for this to be of importance. The British government or one of their private company offshoots could have hired Visor to run the exercise for a number of purposes.The exercise fulfils several different goals. It acts as a cover for the small compartamentalized government terrorists to carry out their operation without the larger security services becoming aware of what they're doing, and, more importantly, if they get caught during the attack or after with any incriminating evidence they can just claim that they were just taking part in the exercise.This is precisely what happened on the morning of 9/11/2001. The CIA was conducting drills of flying hijacked planes into the WTC and Pentagon at 8:30 in the morning.It is clear that at least five if not six training exercises were in operation in the days leading up to and on the morning of 9/11. This meant that NORAD radar screens showed as many as 22 hijacked airliners at the same time. NORAD had been briefed that this was part of the exercise drill and therefore normal reactive procedure was forestalled and delayed.The large numbers of 'blips' on NORAD screens that displayed both real and 'drill' hijacked planes explain why confused press reports emerged hours after the attack stating that up to eight planes had been hijacked.The Anglo-American establishment that controls the military-industrial complex of the West has been caught over a hundred times carrying out bombings and other terrorist attacks around the world to further their corporate aims and to blame their enemies.The US government has been caught planning to carry out attacks and carrying out attacks. The British government has been caught red-handed as well. Members of Vladimir Putin's FSB were caught planting bombs in a Russian apartment building in 1999 by the Moscow police.This is not speculation. Kermit Roosevelt admited on NPR radio that in 1953 the CIA and British intelligence carried out a wave of bombings and shootings in Iran. He then went on to brag about how they subsequently blamed the bombings on Iran's President, Mossadegh. Do you understand, these people brag about wh

[cia-drugs] Tarpley Synthetic Terror

2005-07-09 Thread norgesen





9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in 
USA 
 
A remarkable look under the skin of the lurid 
scarecrow figure of modern terrorism to reveal the bones and sinews of a 
man-made monster, one with very direct genetic links to the Bader-Meinhof gang 
and the "strategy of tension" deployed after WW-II to justify the militarization 
of society and the targeting of selected groups. Once society gets used to the 
idea that odd little groups or demented individuals occasionally pull off 
spectacular attacks, the mask of any desired target group (leftists, hippies, 
Arabs) can be easily fitted to the patsy who will be blamed for the attack. 
The National Security State needs its terrorists, and leaves nothing to 
chance in their care and feeding. By revealing the mundane operational details 
of these programs, and the continuity over time of both the strategies and the 
personnel involved, Tarpley brings these deliberately shadowy enterprises into 
the realm of normal human activities. In this view, the series of staged events 
leading up to 9-11 (Waco, the Murrah building and all the rest) comes into clear 
focus as the successive elaborations of the same schema on an ever larger scale. 
The use of visible patsies to focus blame, the networks of moles that 
protect and manage them, the aggressive coverups with blatent destruction of 
evidence and violent suppression of potential whistle-blowers, the fake 
investigations and popular press debunking... the pattern repeats with 
remarkable consistency, and the growing boldness of a cabal that has tasted 
success and has so far crushed all those who have tried to reveal the extent of 
their crimes. Tarpley's deep knowledge of the Bush family and NATO 
secret terror operations in Europe make him the ideal historian to put the 
distinctly post-WW-II phenomenon of synthetic terrorism in it's proper 
historical perspective, and in so doing he in effect does create a new field of 
historical inquiry. This is truly an important work, written with great 
precision and elegance. 
 
~~~
The thesis of Webster Tarpley’s 911 Synthetic 
Terror: Made in USA has been enthusiastically received with its 
working model of the 9/11 plot: a rogue network of moles, patsies, and a 
commando cell in the privatized intelligence services, backed by corrupt 
political and corporate media elites. 
Buttressed by historical examples like the Baader-Meinhof Gang and the 
Gunpowder Plot, this model makes it clear how such a monstrous false-flag or 
self-terror exploit is possible even under a largely benign government. That 
paradox is the incredibility gap that has made most Americans reject the 
evidence about 9/11 as paranoid fantasy. 
Tarpley brings decades of expertise to the 9/11 issue. Already in 1978 he had 
exposed the terrorist Red Brigades as patsies of Italy's fascist P2 shadow 
government, and 9/11 is on the same pattern. The forthright subtitle, Made in 
USA, is backed up by an analysis of key figures who behave like moles working 
for the rogue network or parallel government. 
9/11 Synthetic Terror highlights the salient points of sheer physical 
impossibility of the official 9/11 conspiracy theory. It then analyzes the 
psychological traits which make Anglo-American society gullible to artificial 
enemy images and unable to grasp the truth of 9/11. 
Understanding how synthetic terror works, we see the weakness of the muddled 
"blowback" theories of terrorism and the spurious leads to Pakistan or Saudi 
Arabia that have marred many critiques of 9/11. Tarpley's model makes it clear 
that figures like Osama bin Laden are patsies or double agents who were selected 
for their ethnic coloring as the basis for launching a "Clash of Civilizations," 
and it is absurd to imagine that such tools of US intelligence agencies could 
turn around and infiltrate or overwhelm US defenses unaided. 
9/11 Synthetic Terror is also firmly grounded in Great Power geopolitics. It 
shows that the wars on the Islamic world, the Soviet-Afghan, Kosovo and Chechen 
conflicts, as well as US-UK-NATO synthetic terror incidents like 9/11, Beslan or 
3/11 in Madrid, have been contrived to continue the Cold War, in pursuit of the 
centuries-long campaign for Anglo hegemony over Eurasia and the world. 
For a principled refutation of the 9/11 propaganda myth in all its parts, 
Tarpley's work is indispensable.About the AuthorWebster 
Griffin Tarpley is an activist and historian best known for his George Bush: The 
Unauthorized Biography (1992), a masterpiece of research which is still a must 
read. A decades-long expert on international terrorism, he directed the study 
Chi ha ucciso Aldo Moro? (Who Killed Aldo Moro?), commissioned by a member of 
the Italian government and published in Rome in 1978, which broke open the 
affiliation of the Red Brigades with the neofascist lodge P2.

I therefore contend that the more reliable 
conceptual
model for understanding terrorism is one that 
situates the secret intelligence

[cia-drugs] Madrid Redux?

2005-07-09 Thread Vigilius Haufniensis





http://kurtnimmo.com/blog/?p=808


Madrid 
Redux? 
Saturday July 09th 2005, 7:43 am 
Remember how the alleged bombers in Spain blew themselves up as police closed 
in? It was convenient because dead men tell no tales. Now there are unconfirmed 
reports British police killed two “suicide bombers” outside the HSBC tower at 
Canary Wharf in London, according to the New Zealand Herald. “Following the 
shooting, the 8000 workers in the 44-storey tower were told to stay away from 
windows and remain in the building for at least six hours,” a New Zealand man 
working for Reuters in London told the newspaper. Another coincidence is the 
alleged participation of Mohammed al-Gerbouzi in the London bombings. “As head 
of the Group of Islamic Combatants of Morocco, he has been linked to the Madrid 
atrocities and bombings in Casablanca two years ago when 40 people died,” notes 
the Edinburgh Evening News. “Mohammed 
al Gerbouzi is said to have been living with his family in Britain for 16 years. 
It is understood he was granted indefinite leave to remain in the country, 
despite warnings from Morocco that he posed a threat.” Isn’t it odd a potential 
threat to security such as al-Gerbouzi is allowed to walk around? “A former 
pupil of cleric Abu Qatada—said to be Osama Bin Laden’s European 
ambassador—Gerbouzi is alleged by the Spanish authorities to have spoken to some 
of the Madrid bombers twice in the hours before they blew themselves up as 
police closed in.” I wonder if the bombers al-Gerbouzi talked with are the same 
ones accused of working with the Spanish 
police.

Train Wreck of the Week By Bob Chapman 
July 3 2005
George W. Bush has lied about WMD in order to create an excuse for war, and 
we now also find he lied about his actions and interest prior to the war. In 
August of 2002, he began military actions inside Iraq. First came the bombing 
extension and then the insertion of Special Forces Units for reconnaissance. Six 
months later the CIA and special operations were sent into Iraq. Our President 
was waging aggressive war long before official war and invasion began. This is 
George and the neocon’s version of democracy. Our intelligence tells us that the 
same pre war, war preparations are going on in Iran, which is to be the 
elitists’ next target. Our special units are already in Iran and have been for 
some time and the BBC tells us our U2 spy plane was shot down while over Iran. 
Our government hasn’t told us yet where the wreckage is, only that they are 
guarding and inspecting it. Essentially, we are already at war with Iran – we 
just haven’t invaded yet. US trained infiltrators from Azerbaijan are already in 
Iran collecting intelligence, which we mentioned some months ago. We also have 
military aircraft in Azerbaijan with which we can attack Iran. Our government is 
in the process of creating another war for profit – to steal Iran’s oil. If we 
do not impose tariff barriers on goods and services, America’s economic 
structure will be destroyed. Yes, consumer prices will rise but that cost is far 
less than the destruction of our economic and financial system, which is now 
taking place. Free trade and globalization has been disastrous for our 
country.
If you live in a hot housing market you had best pay attention and beware 
that you will suffer the most from a downturn. The FDIC says the 22 major local 
markets with the fastest growing prices account for 35% of the nation’s housing 
values, that is those that are up more than 30% over the past three years. In 
2004, 55 of 362 markets qualified, and account for about 40% of national 
residential values.
Fannie Mae concludes that the probability of regional housing busts has risen 
sharply in certain parts of the country and current conditions mirror past 
conditions that preceded regional housing busts. Twenty-four percent of the 
sub-prime loans, included in private label securities, were adjustable rate 
mortgages with an interest-only payment provision. More than 30% of sub-prime 
loans were topped with a home-equity loan granted at the same time. Overall, 
mortgage borrowings rose to an average of 91% of home values.
We are totally convinced a national housing bubble exists and the risks to 
the economy are enormous. The Fed and government agencies are well aware of the 
situation. If they tighten the way they should, the stock market, bonds, real 
estate and pensions will all fall in value. If they do nothing and continue to 
inflate, the boom will get further out of hand and the resultant fall will be 
worse. If the interest rates are not quickly increased and the credit punchbowl 
removed the downside will be ghastly.
Five years ago in early April 2000 we announced the end of the equity bubble 
and this fall we should start to see the end of the real estate bubble. Thanks 
to the Federal Reserve, one bubble led to another. It did not just happen that 
way; it was planned that way. The same crowd that saw equities fairly valued 
sees real estate fairly valued today. There are no fundamentals to drive the 
real estate market, only low interest rates. The situation is little different 
from 2000.
Over 2-1/2 years the S&P 500 fell 49%. Presently house price inflation is 
at a 25-year high in real terms. In the first quarter of 2005, double-digit 
house price inflation was evident in 23 states plus DC. In 25 of the top 100 
metropolitan areas, the rate of home price appreciation was at least 20%. 
Investors, not owners are currently accounting for 11.5% of newly-originated 
conventional mortgage loans; that is up from a 2% low in late 1995. Mortgage 
financing is now a game of exotics; anything goes for now, who cares about 
tomorrow.
Prompted by low interest rates and exotic mortgages and low investment 
returns most everyone has jumped on the real estate bandwagon. This is a global 
bubble with only a few exceptions. This is, as we have said many times, the 
biggest financial bubble in history. It’s not only the Fed; it’s a number of 
central banks and governments that have added fuel to the fire. Sir Alan 
Greenspan was never concerned with irrational exuberance; he was the one 
responsible for running the stock market up from December 1995 to April 2000. He 
could have stopped it at any time simply by raising interest margin 
requirements, but he w

The cardinal, Christoph Schönborn, archbishop of Vienna, a theologian who is close to Pope Benedict XVI, staked out his position in an Op-Ed article in The New York Times on Thursday, writing, "Evolution in the sense of common ancestry might be true, but evolution in the neo-Darwinian sense - an unguided, unplanned process of random variation and natural selection - is not."  In a telephone interview from a monastery in Austria, where he was on retreat, the cardinal said that his essay had not been approved by the Vatican, but that two or three weeks before Pope Benedict XVI's election in April, he spoke with the pope, then Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, about the church's position on evolution. "I said I would like to have a more explicit statement about that, and he encouraged me to go on," said Cardinal Schönborn.  He said that he had been "angry" for years about writers and theologians, many Catholics, who he said had "misrepresented" the church's position as endorsing the idea of evolution as a random process.  Opponents of Darwinian evolution said they were gratified by Cardinal Schönborn's essay. But scientists and science teachers reacted with confusion, dismay and even anger. Some said they feared the cardinal's sentiments would cause religious scientists to question their faiths.  Cardinal Schönborn, who is on the Vatican's Congregation for Catholic Education, said the office had no plans to issue new guidance to teachers in Catholic schools on evolution. But he said he believed students in Catholic schools, and all schools, should be taught that evolution is just one of many theories. Many Catholic schools teach Darwinian evolution, in which accidental mutation and natural selection of the fittest organisms drive the history of life, as part of their science curriculum.  Darwinian evolution is the foundation of modern biology. While researchers may debate details of how the mechanism of evolution plays out, there is no credible scientific challenge to the underlying theory.   American Catholics and conservative evangelical Christians have been a potent united front in opposing abortion, stem cell research and euthanasia, but had parted company on the death penalty and the teaching of evolution. Cardinal Schönborn's essay and comments are an indication that the church may now enter the debate over evolution more forcefully on the side of those who oppose the teaching of evolution alone.  One of the strongest advocates of teaching alternatives to evolution is the Discovery Institute in Seattle, which promotes the idea, termed intelligent design, that the variety and complexity of life on earth cannot be explained except through the intervention of a designer of some sort.  Mark Ryland, a vice president of the institute, said in an interview that he had urged the cardinal to write the essay. Both Mr. Ryland and Cardinal Schönborn said that an essay in May in The Times about the compatibility of religion and evolutionary theory by Lawrence M. Krauss, a physicist at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, suggested to them that it was time to clarify the church's position on evolution.  The cardinal's essay, a direct response to Dr. Krauss's article, was submitted to The Times by a Virginia public relations firm, Creative Response Concepts, which also represents the Discovery Institute.  Mr. Ryland, who said he knew the cardinal through the International Theological Institute in Gaming, Austria, where he is chancellor and Mr. Ryland is on the board, said supporters of intelligent design were "very excited" that a church leader had taken a position opposing Darwinian evolution. "It clarified that in some sense the Catholics aren't fine with it," he said.  Bruce Chapman, the institute's president, said the cardinal's essay "helps blunt the claims" that the church "has spoken on Darwinian evolution in a way that's supportive."  But some biologists and others said they read the essay as abandoning longstanding church support for evolutionary biology.  "How did the Discovery Institute talking points wind up in Vienna?" wondered Glenn Branch, deputy director of the National Center for Science Education, which advocates the teaching of evolution. "It really did look quite a bit as if Cardinal Schönborn had been reading their Web pages."  Mr. Ryland said the cardinal was well versed on these issues and had written the essay on his own.

Romania is the first country to conclude this important agreement with the U.S. Feith will also discuss U.S.-Romania defense cooperation and Romania's NATO candidacy   In Romania, the group will meet with national leaders. They will discuss the country's NATO candidacy, and the U.S. delegation will thank Romania for its help in the war on terrorism and for supporting the U.S. position on the International Criminal Court.”Press Release, September 23rd 2002 US Embassy Romania   At their August meeting 2002 Bush gave Blair his instructions about invading Iraq. These plans were settled in detail by Rumsfeld a week later in New York when Minister of Defence Geoff Hoon (with, we now know, a very unhappy bunch of MOD stars including Dr David Kelly ). After he and his military men got their marching orders, the leaden lawyer Hoon, with a delightful sense of irony, addressed his old American alma mater, Louisville U. in the appropriately named Muhammed Ali Peace Hall.   The above little noticed visit by one of the self confessed neo-cons, whose mission and vision were still a guilty little secret unknown outside the Beltway, was doing his best to drum up support for US refusal to recognise the International Criminal Court.   Few criminals decide they don't recognise the courts jurisidiction in advance of committing the crime. Proof, if it were needed, of the wicked and criminal intention to illegally invade and occupy Iraq.   Crime cannot be justified In launching the imperial invasion and shock and awe inspiring blitzkrieg on March 8th 2003, the UK and US are unquestionably in violation of the Charter of the United Nations and other international agreements by which the US and Britain as signatories are bound. UN Secretary General Kofi Annan repeatedly said before the invasion that a unilateral attack would be in violation of the UN Charter.   This violent and aggressive invasion, unleashing over 30,000 bombs, napalm, and all the terrors of aerial bombing against a civilian population, was a Hobbesian, "War of each against all". Raw power, military might, not morality, not legitimacy was the only currency. The Bush Administration and Parliament were well aware this attack had no legal basis. The legal justifications offered then, and over which much squalid sophistry is being used and cyinically offered are transparently fraudulent.   Simply put. The invasion of Iraq was illegal. It's authors are criminals and should be tried as such.   The White House Legal Brief On March 13th 2002 at a Press Briefing in the White House, Ari Fleischer, then but now, ex- Presidential spokesman, was asked about the legality of a war on Iraq.   He read, from an obviously prepared statement,   “The UN Security Council Resolution 678 authorised use of all means to uphold UN Security Council resolution 660 and subsequent resolutions and to restore international peace and security in the area.”    In fact 678 authorised the use of force only to remove Iraqi military forces from Kuwait, not to invade Iraq. “Thereafter,” Fleischer stridently continued, “687 declared a cease fire …. And provides then legal grounds for the use of force.”   The UN Charter The 1945 UN Charter Article 2 , states,     “must refrain..from the use of force against or the territorial integrity or political independence of any state”…except under certain narrowly defined circumstances.” “Member states must seek a solution to disputes through the Security Council (Art 33) and the Security Council, which will determine what action to take” (Art 39)   It is only the Security Council that can decide upon the use of force :  “Plans for the application of force shall be made by the Security Council with the assistance of the Military Staff Committee..” (Art 48) “Member states may use force but only the Security Council is empowered to provide the autho

They neither know nor care about the death squads in Guatemala and El Salvador that were trained, funded, and equipped by the U.S., and which tortured and murdered thousands of alleged "communists and terrorists." From the point of view of the U.S. government, Americans' ignorance and disinterest in their nation's history of "counter-terror assistance" to countries like Guatemala is a real boon. It makes it that much easier for the U.S. to fund, train, and equip nearly identical death squads in Iraq. Beginning in the 1960's, the U.S. assisted the right-wing Guatemalan government in establishing a counter-terrorist task force to combat communist insurgent groups (a.k.a. terrorists). For instance, when the Guatemalan government asked for help in developing special squads that would kidnap, torture, and kill suspected communists, the U.S. military recommended that the U.S. "fully support current police improvement programs and initiate military psychological warfare training and additional counterinsurgency operations training." In other words, Guatemala got the help it wanted. In 1968, the State Department's Viron Vacky, former U.S. Deputy Chief of Mission in Guatemala, criticized the U.S. government for condoning the Guatemalan government's counter-terror practices of killing, torturing, and mutilating suspected communists. Vacky summarized the U.S. position regarding Guatemala's death squads: "[A]s long as Communists are being killed it is alright. Murder, torture and mutilation are alright if our side is doing it and the victims are Communists." In a 1971 cable to the House Sub-Committee on Inter-American Affairs, the U.S. embassy in Guatemala confirmed Vacky's accusations when it admitted, "The U.S. Government is aware of the tactics being used by the Government of Guatemala in combatting [sic] urban and rural terrorism." Despite this awareness, the U.S. continued to provide overt military aid to the Guatemalan government and its regime of murder and torture until 1990. Covert military aid continued until 1995.  Click to join catapultthepropaganda    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/catapultthepropaganda/join The U.S. wrote a similar story in El Salvador.Why the (extremely) brief history lesson? In Iraq, U.S.-backed counterinsurgency groups are engaging in the same practices of kidnapping, torture, and murder  (http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=05/01/10/1456242 )  that were employed in Guatemala and El Salvador. With each passing day in Iraq, more and more bodies of suspected insurgents are turning up exhibiting clear signs of torture and summary execution. Take, for instance, the case of Hassan an-Ni'ami, a suspected terrorist. As reported in The Observer, an-Ni'ami was abducted in May by Iraqi police commandos (to great televised fanfare) twelve hours before his mutilated body turned up at the morgue. He had been hung from handcuffs until his hands and wrists became swollen. There were burn marks and welts covering his torso. His nose and arm were broken and one of his upper vertebrae was dislodged. Clusters of circular wounds on both sides of his left knee looked like they had been inflicted by an electric drill. Finally, he was shot repeatedly in the chest and head. His is not an isolated case.Beginning in April, following the announcement of Iraq's new Shiite-led government, the bodies of Sunni men began turning up at Baghdad's central morgue. Witnesses had seen the men captured by men in police commando uniforms and body armor, brandishing Glock 9mm pistols, and driving Toyota Land Cruisers with police markings. (The use of Land Cruisers and Glocks is significant since they cost more than $55,000 and $500 apiece, respectively, and are used exclusively by Western contractors and Iraqi security forces.) The mens' hands had been tied or handcuffed behind their backs and their eyes were blindfolded. The dead men appeared to have been whipped, electrocuted, and beaten with blunt objects before being shot, execution style, in the back of the head. According to Knight-Ridder, more than 30 such killings in Baghdad occurred in less than a week. Similarly, Knight-Ridder reported that in May, 14 Sunni farmers were abducted from a Baghdad market by a patrol of more than 10 police vehicles. The next day, the bodies of the suspected insurgents were found in shallow graves. The men had been blin

[cia-drugs] THE PROVOCATEUR STATE: Is the CIA Behind the Iraqi "Insurgents"--and Global Terrorism?

2005-07-09 Thread norgesen





THE PROVOCATEUR 
STATEIs the CIA Behind the Iraqi "Insurgents"--and Global 
Terrorism?by Frank MoralesThe requirement of an 
ever-escalating level of social violence to meet thepolitical and economic 
needs of the insatiable "anti-terrorist complex" isthe essence of the new US 
militarism. What is now openly billed as"permanent war" ultimately serves 
the geo-political ends of social controlin the interests of US corporate 
domination, much as the anti-communistcrusade of the now-exhasuted Cold War 
did.Back in 2002, following the trauma of  9-11, Secretary of 
Defense Donald H.Rumsfeld predicted there would be more terrorist attacks 
against theAmerican people and civilization at large. How could he be so 
sure of that?Perhaps because these attacks would be instigated  on the 
order of theHonorable Mr. Rumsfeld. According to Los Angeles Times military 
analystWilliam Arkin, writing Oct. 27, 2002, Rumsfeld set out to create 
a  secretarmy, "a super-Intelligence Support Activity" network that 
would "bringtogether CIA and military covert action, information warfare, 
intelligence,and cover and  deception," to stir the pot of spiraling 
global violence.According to a classified document prepared for Rumsfeld 
by his DefenseScience Board, the new organization--the "Proactive, 
Preemptive OperationsGroup  (P2OG)"--would actually carry out secret 
missions designed toprovoke terrorist groups into committing violent acts. 
The P2OG, a100-member, so-called "counter-terrorist" organization with 
a$100-million-a-year budget, would ostensibly target "terrorist 
leaders,"but according to P2OG documents procured by Arkin, would in fact 
carry outmissions designed to "stimulate reactions" among "terrorist 
groups"--which,according to the Defense Secretary's logic, would 
subsequently expose themto "counter-attack" by the good guys. In other 
words, the plan is toexecute secret military operations (assassinations, 
sabotage, "deception")which would intentionally result in terrorist attacks 
on innocent people,including Americans--essentially, to "combat terrorism" 
by causing it!This notion is currently being applied to the problem of 
the Iraqi"insurgency," it seems. According to a May 1, 2005 report by Peter 
Maass inthe New York Times Magazine, two of the top US advisers to 
Iraqiparamilitary  commandos fighting the insurgents are veterans of 
UScounterinsurgency operations in Latin America. Loaning credence to 
recentmedia speculation about the "Salvadorization" of  Iraq, the 
report notesthat one adviser currently in Iraq is James Steele, who led a 
team of 55 USArmy Special Forces advisers in El Salvador in the 1980s. Maass 
writes thatthese advisors "trained front-line battalions that were accused 
ofsignificant human rights abuses."The current senior US adviser at 
the Iraqi Interior Ministry, which Maasswrites "has operational control over 
the commandos," is former top US DrugEnforcement  Administration (DEA) 
official Steve Casteel, who worked"alongside local forces"  in the 
US-sponsored "Drug War" in Bolivia, Peruand Colombia, "where he was involved 
in the hunt for Pablo Escobar, thehead of the Medellin  cocaine 
cartel."The US "drug war" in Latin America also serves as a cover for 
ongoingcounterinsurgency, employing terrorist methods to achieve two aims: 
one,actually combating genuine insurgency; two, the ratcheting up of  
a"strategy of tension," heightened social violence designed to induce 
fearamong the citizenry and the subsequent call for greater 
"security."This was the essence, for example, of Operation Gladio, a 
decades-longcovert campaign of provocateur-style terrorism and deceit. The 
ostensiblepurpose of Gladio, officially launched as a covert NATO program in 
1952,was to establish a clandestine network of "stay-behind" teams which 
wouldorganize armed resistance and sabotage in the event of a Soviet 
invasion ofWestern Europe. But the network actually took a far more 
proactive role.Directed by US/NATO intelligence services of the West against 
their ownpopulations, Operation Gladio led to possibly hundreds of innocent 
peoplebeing killed or maimed in "terrorist" attacks which were then blamed 
on"leftist subversives" or other political opponents. The most notorious 
suchattack was the 1980 bombing of the train station at Bologna, which left 
85dead. Initially blamed on left-wing radicals, the blast was revealed 
uponinvestigation to be the work of an ultra-right network linked to 
theItaly's Gladio team; four Italian neo-fascists were eventually convicted 
ofthe crime.The purpose was again twofold: to demonize designated 
enemies (the"communists") and to frighten the public into supporting 
ever-increasingpowers for the national security state. It appears the 
Pentagon has beenimplementing Gladio-style operations for quite  some 
time--possiblyincluding 9-11. A stretch? Maybe not.Witness the 
US  Joint Chiefs discussion of "Operation Northwoods" back in1962, a 
plan to  blow up U.S.

He is also on the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.) On the other hand, the whole tale is so ... so prototypical, so archetypal, so (even though I keep promising not to use the word) paradigmatic.     Cunningham was a decorated pilot in Vietnam who has oft campaigned on the claim that he is the original model for Top Gun. In 2003, he sold his house in Del Mar, a very upscale town north of San Diego. The buyer was Mitchell Wade, a defense contractor, who paid $1.675 million. Wade later resold the house at a $700,000 loss.      Now, either this makes Wade the only person in recent history to lose money on a San Diego real estate deal, or the guy paid way too much for the house.      The deal is now under investigation by a grand jury. Cunningham in turn used the money he made from the Del Mar deal to buy a $2.55 million home in Rancho Santa Fe.      Meanwhile, back in Washington, Cunningham is living, rent-free, aboard a 42-foot yacht named the Duke Stir, which belongs to the said same Mitchell Wade. Since 2002, Wade's company, MZM Inc., has received $163 million in defense contracts.      There the case stood until this week, when we learned from Copley News Service and The Washington Post that the boat-loving Cunningham was living on the Duke Stir only because he had sold his own boat, the Kelly C, a 65-foot flat-bottom riverboat, to Thomas Kontogiannis, a New York real estate developer.      Follow this closely: Kontogiannis buys the boat from Cunningham in the summer of 2002. In 2003, a mortgage company owned by Kontogiannis' nephew and daughter finances $1.1 million of the price of Cunnigham's new home in Rancho Santa Fe. Also, Kontogiannis never gets around to putting the Kelly C in his own name, so the Coast Guard still thinks it's owned by Cunningham. What a misunderstanding.      My favorite quote, so far: Kontogiannis, when asked if he was doing Cunningham a favor by keeping the boat in his name while Kontogiannis paid $100,000 to redecorate it, said: "Why would I do that? I don't need the man." The pragmatic approach.      Kontogiannis does admit that he was looking for a pardon for his unfortunate 2003 conviction on kickback and bribery charges in connection with a bid-rigging scheme for New York City school computers. He said Cunningham steered him to a Washington law firm for this purpose, but it was "too much aggravation."      Cunningham is very big on patriotism and the no-flag-burning amendment. Meantime, MZM is working on classified intelligence projects for the government. The company's literature says it helps the government with "enigmatic problems."      For those who prefer to contemplate varieties of political corruption in a more systemic way, the current issue of Harper's magazine has a cover article on "The Great American Pork Barrel: Washington Streamlines the Means of Corruption," by Ken Silverstein, which I highly recommend.      Silverstein details the ballooning of the practice called "earmarks" in the federal budget. As it is true of much of what is wrong with our politics, the practice is not new -- pork barrel politics has a venerable history -- but it is spiraling out of control. The same thing has happened with gerrymandering, also an ancient practice, and campaign contributions. They've always been part of politics, it's just that now they are so much more so. Indeed, what have been just deplorable flaws in our system are now eating the whole system -- the flaws are getting bigger than the functioning, with the result that serving the public interest is rapidly disappearing.      Silverstein reports on earmarks: "In the past two decades, the pastime has become breathtaking in its profligacy. Even as the federal deficit soars to record heights, the sums of money being diverted from the treasury have grown ever larger. Last year, 15,584 separate earmarks worth a combined $32.7 billion were attached to the appropriations bills -- more than twice the dollar amount in 2001 ... and more than three times the dollar amount in 1998

PurposesMOSCOW (RIA Novosti) -- Yesterday, Chief of 
the Russian General Staff YuryBaluyevsky left for China to settle a scandal 
over the first Russian-Chinesemilitary exercise, Commonwealth-2005, which is 
due to be held this fall offthe Yellow Sea coast, writes Kommersant. 
The initial plans were to practice operational teamwork in 
combatingterrorism during the exercise. However, Beijing, skillfully 
changing theformat of the exercise, has tried to re-orient the two 
countries' armies topracticing an invasion of Taiwan. The choice of 
where the exercise will take place became a stumbling block.The Russian 
military selected the Xinjiang-Uigur autonomous region, basingtheir choice 
on the area's problematic nature due to Uigur separatists andits proximity 
to Central Asia, which has become an arena in the fightagainst international 
terrorism. However, Beijing flatly rejected theproposal. Instead, it 
suggested the Zhejiang province near Taiwan. A joint exercise in this 
area would look too provocative and trigger astrong reaction not only from 
Taiwan but also America and Japan, whichrecently included the island in the 
zone of their common strategicinterests. Beijing is trying to use 
Russia as an additional lever of pressure on thedisobedient island to show 
it that its policy is also causingdissatisfaction in Russia, from which the 
Taiwanese are expecting assistancein their dialogue with Beijing and bid to 
join the WTO and the UN. On the Russian military's insistence, the 
exercise was shifted north to theShangdong peninsula. However, the Chinese 
are trying to change the format ofthe exercise with proposals to enlarge the 
contingents with Marines andPacific Fleet warships. Marine landings to seize 
the area will be practicedduring the "antiterrorist" exercise. 
Russia's agreement to hold the exercise will inevitably cause a furor 
inAmerica, Japan and Taiwan. But a refusal will spoil relations with 
China,which three months ago courteously agreed to Russia's proposal to hold 
anexercise.

By Robert ParryReply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]         War Or Impeachment? By Robert Parry      In the days ahead, American politicians and pundits will talk a lot about "leveling" with the people by speaking the hard truth about Iraq, meaning an admission that the war is sure to rage for years and require an even heavier sacrifice in money and blood.      But this "leveling" will be just the latest spin. What they won't tell you are these two other hard truths:     First, whatever lies ahead in the Iraq War, the outcome is almost certain to be far worse for Iraqis and Americans than it would have been if the U.S.-led invasion had never happened. Despite the uplifting political rhetoric about democracy and peace, the smart money is on a staggering death toll, a grisly civil war, possibly even genocide, with Sunnis killing Shiites and Shiites killing Sunnis.     CIA analysts also have concluded that Iraq is emerging as a far more effective training ground for Islamic terrorists than Afghanistan ever was. Iraq is both more central to the Arab world and provides hands-on experience in bomb-making, kidnapping, assassination and conventional attacks on military targets. [Reuters, June 22, 2005]      If the Iraq insurgency ever ends, these battle-hardened terrorists also would be freed up to turn their skills on American targets around the world or on pro-U.S. governments in the Middle East, such as Saudi Arabia and Jordan., according to an internal CIA analysis written in May 2005.      A drawn-out Iraq War also is certain to damage America's volunteer military, with some of the nation's best warriors killed, wounded or embittered after repeated tours in Iraq. Recruiters have struggled to meet quotas, and many current GIs have stayed in the military only because the Bush administration has invoked so-called "stop-loss" orders that prevent soldiers from leaving when their tours of duty are up.      Another sign of how poorly "Operation Iraqi Freedom" is going is that one of the mission's chief goals now is a major expansion of Iraq's prison system. In other words, the expectation is that Saddam Hussein's old police state will be succeeded by a government that will lock up even more people.    Click to join catapultthepropaganda    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/catapultthepropaganda/join     Two Choices The second hard truth is that the American people have only two choices on what to do next: they can continue to send their young soldiers into the Iraqi death trap for at least the next several years and hope for the best, or they can build a movement for impeaching George W. Bush and other administration officials - and then try to make the best of a bad situation in Iraq.    Although the realistic prospects for electing a Congress in 2006 that would act against Bush may appear slim, an impeachment movement would create at least a focus for a national political campaign, much like the Republicans used the Contract with America to gain their congressional majorities in 1994.    An impeachment strategy would have two other benefits: it would create the framework for an official investigation into the deceptions that led the nation to war in 2002-2003 (as well as into the incompetence with which the war was fought) and it would offer a legal structure for achieving some accountability.    No accountability means that a precedent has been set for future presidents misleading the nation into other aggressive wars of choice and paying no price.    While many liberals and Democrats reject an impeachment strategy - fearing that it would be too confrontational and carry too many political risks - there are dangers, too, in again trying to finesse the Iraq War, as Democrats did in the disastrous elections of 2002 and 2004.    Arguably, the Democrats would be no worse off - and might actually be in control of the government - if they had stood up to Bush's war hysteria in 2002 and made the case in 2004 that the war must be brought to a swift conclusion. If Election 2006 is a reprise of the past two elections, the Republicans might actually gain ground against a demoralized Democratic base.    But these two "hard truths" - the recognition that the Iraq War fails any reasonable cost-benefit analysis and the realization that only extraordinary political courage can force a change of course - are sure not to be part of Bush's new PR push on Iraq, even as the politicians and the pundits say they're finally "leveling" with the American people.

[cia-drugs] CIA, FBI, Mossad and MI5 Responsible For London Carnage

2005-07-09 Thread Homi Wadia






 
Dear Friends,
Yes, without any doubts, the CIA, FBI, Mossad and MI5 are certainly responsible for the bombings on hapless, innocent civilians in London and the carnage, death amnd destruction in the Trains and buses. The leader of terrorism amd evil, Master WMDBush and his 'poodle' Blair are the ones who must have given orders to these barbaric organisations to carry out such heinous and barbaric crimes against innocents as they have and continue to do in Iraq and elsewhere in the world.When IRA was active and and during their last phase of the troubles, they targeted mainland Britain and they came close to blowing up Margaret Thatcher and her cabinet in Brighton. A missile was fired at No 10 some years later. London's financial quarter was also targeted. Who were the perpetrators of these troubles? There was no secret as to the identity of the organization. And all this happened despite the various Prevention of Terrorism Acts passed by the
 Commons.    The identityt of the bombers who targeted London on Thursday 7/7 are not known. But the British racists keep on ranting and beating their breasts and blaming it all on Al-Qaeda and saying that those who carried out these
 attacks are linked to al-Qaida. There is no evidence, no proof and no signs leading to Al-Qaeda. We simply do not know. Al-Qaida is not the only terrorist group in existence. It has rivals within the Muslim diaspora. But it is safe to assume that the cause of these bombs is the unstinting support given by New Labour and its prime minister to the US wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. One of the arguments deployed by Ken Livingstone, the mayor of London, when he appealed to Tony Blair not to support the war in Iraq was prescient: "An assault on Iraq will inflame world opinion and jeopardise security and peace everywhere. London, as one of the major world cities, has a great deal to lose from war and a lot to gain from peace, international cooperation and global stability." Most Londoners (as the rest of the country) were opposed to the Iraq war. Tragically, they have suffered the blow and paid the price for the re-election of Blair and a continuation of the war.
 Ever since 9/11, the world have been arguing that the "war against terror" is immoral and counterproductive. It sanctions the use of state terror - bombing raids, torture, countless civilian deaths in Afghanistan and iraq.Moreover, to keep this illegal, illegitimate and immoral war on 'terror,' which suits the political aspiratiomns of the West and the evil designs of Bush and Blair, every now and then they have create such calamitious situation to retain the ante and inadvertantly give full power to these criminals at CIA, FBI, Mossad and MI5.May God Bless us all, Dr Homi Wadia

The requirement of an ever-escalating level of social violence to meet the political and economic needs of the insatiable "anti-terrorist complex" is the essence of the new US militarism. 
What is now openly billed as "permanent war" ultimately serves the geo-political ends of social control in the interests of US corporate domination, much as the anti-communist crusade of the now-exhausted Cold War did.
Back in 2002, following the trauma of 9-11, Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld predicted there would be more terrorist attacks against the American people and civilization at large. How could he be so sure of that? Perhaps because these attacks would be instigated on the order of the Honorable Mr. Rumsfeld. According to Los Angeles Times military analyst William Arkin, writing Oct. 27, 2002, Rumsfeld set out to create a secret army, "a super-Intelligence Support Activity" network that would "bring together CIA and military covert action, information warfare, intelligence, and cover and deception," to stir the pot of spiraling global violence.
According to a classified document prepared for Rumsfeld by his Defense Science Board, the new organization--the "Proactive, Preemptive Operations Group (P2OG)"--would actually carry out secret missions designed to provoke terrorist groups into committing violent acts. The P2OG, a 100-member, so-called "counter-terrorist" organization with a $100-million-a-year budget, would ostensibly target "terrorist leaders," but according to P2OG documents procured by Arkin, would in fact carry out missions designed to "stimulate reactions" among "terrorist groups"--which, according to the Defense Secretary's logic, would subsequently expose them to "counter-attack" by the good guys. In other words, the plan is to execute secret military operations (assassinations, sabotage, "deception") which would intentionally result in terrorist attacks on innocent people, including

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/index.cfm?c_id=1&ObjectID=10334992'Police shot bombers' reports New 
Zealander09.07.05 (July 9, 2005 NZ)A New 
Zealander working for Reuters in London says two colleagues witnessed the 
unconfirmed shooting by police of two apparent suicide bombers outside the HSBC 
tower at Canary Wharf in London. The New Zealander, who did not want to 
be named, said the killing of the two men wearing bombs happened at 10.30am on 
Thursday (London time). Following the shooting, the 8000 workers in the 
44-storey tower were told to stay away from windows and remain in the building 
for at least six hours, the New Zealand man said. He was not prepared to 
give the names of his two English colleagues, who he said witnessed the shooting 
from a building across the road from the tower. Reports of attacks 
carried out by suicide bombers have been rife in London. Canada's Globe 
and Mail newspaper reported an unconfirmed incident of police shooting a bomber 
outside the HSBC tower. Canadian Brendan Spinks, who works on the 18th 
floor of the tower, said he saw a "massive rush of policemen" outside the 
building after London was rocked by the bombings.

The Provocateur

Is the CIA Behind the

  The requirement of an ever-escalating level of social 
  violence to meet the political and economic needs of the insatiable 
  "anti-terrorist complex" is the essence of the new US militarism. 
  What is now openly billed as "permanent war" ultimately 
  serves the geo-political ends of social control in the interests of US 
  corporate domination, much as the anti-communist crusade of the now-exhausted 
  Cold War did.
  Back in 2002, following the trauma of 9-11, Secretary of 
  Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld predicted there would be more terrorist attacks 
  against the American people and civilization at large. How could he be so sure 
  of that? Perhaps because these attacks would be instigated on the order of the 
  Honorable Mr. Rumsfeld. According to Los Angeles Times military analyst 
  William Arkin, writing Oct. 27, 2002, Rumsfeld set out to create a secret 
  army, "a super-Intelligence Support Activity" network that would "bring 
  together CIA and military covert action, information warfare, intelligence, 
  and cover and deception," to stir the pot of spiraling global 
  violence.
  According to a classified document prepared for Rumsfeld 
  by his Defense Science Board, the new organization--the "Proactive, Preemptive 
  Operations Group (P2OG)"--would actually carry out secret missions designed to 
  provoke terrorist groups into committing violent acts. The P2OG, a 100-member, 
  so-called "counter-terrorist" organization with a $100-million-a-year budget, 
  would ostensibly target "terrorist leaders," but according to P2OG documents 
  procured by Arkin, would in fact carry out missions designed to "stimulate 
  reactions" among "terrorist groups"--which, according to the Defense 
  Secretary's logic, would subsequently expose them to "counter-attack" by the 
  good guys. In other words, the plan is to execute secret military operations 
  (assassinations, sabotage, "deception") which would intentionally result in 
  terrorist attacks on innocent people, including Americans--essentially, to 
  "combat terrorism" by causing it!
  This notion is currently being applied to the problem of 
  the Iraqi "insurgency," it seems. According to a May 1, 2005 report by Peter 
  Maass in the New York Times Magazine, two of the top US advisers to Iraqi 
  paramilitary commandos fighting the insurgents are veterans of US 
  counterinsurgency operations in Latin America. Loaning credence to recent 
  media speculation about the "Salvadorization" of Iraq, the report notes that 
  one adviser currently in Iraq is James Steele, who led a team of 55 US Army 
  Special Forces advisers in El Salvador in the 1980s. Maass writes that these 
  advisors "trained front-line battalions that were accused of significant human 
  rights abuses."
  The current senior US adviser at the Iraqi Interior 
  Ministry, which Maass writes "has operational control over the commandos," is 
  former top US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) official Steve Casteel, 
  who worked "alongside local forces" in the US-sponsored "Drug War" in Bolivia, 
  Peru and Colombia, "where he was involved in the hunt for Pablo Escobar, the 
  head of the Medellin cocaine cartel."
  The US "drug war" in Latin America also serves as a 
  cover for ongoing counterinsurgency, employing terrorist methods to achieve 
  two aims: one, actually combating genuine insurgency; two, the ratcheting up 
  of a "strategy of tension," heightened social violence designed to induce fear 
  among the citizenry and the subsequent call for greater "security."
  This was the essence, for example, of Operation Gladio, 
  a decades-long covert campaign of provocateur-style terrorism and deceit. The 
  ostensible purpose of Gladio, officially launched as a covert NATO program in 
  1952, was to establish a clandestine network of "stay-behind" teams which 
  would organize armed resistance and sabotage in the event of a Soviet invasion 
  of Western Europe. But the network actually took a far more proactive role. 
  Directed by US/NATO intelligence services of the West against their own 
  populations, Operation Gladio led to possibly hundreds of innocent people 
  being killed or maimed in "terrorist" attacks which were then blamed on 
  "leftist subversives" or other political opponents. The most notorious such 
  attack was the 1980 bombing of the train station at Bologna, which left 85 
  dead. Initially blamed on left-wing radicals, the blast was revealed upon 
  investigation to be the work of an ultra-right network linked to the Italy's 
  Gladio team; four Italian neo-fascists were eventually convicted of the 
  crime.
  The purpose was again twofold: to demon

Iraq signs military pact with Iran

By Peter Graff 
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraq signed a military pact with Iran on Thursday
in a breakthrough with a former foe, but al Qaeda said it would kill
Egypt's kidnapped envoy and attack more diplomats to stop the
government winning international support. 

Defense Minister Saadoun al-Dulaimi signed a pact in Tehran agreeing
to accept Iranian military training and other cooperation with the
country Iraq fought for a decade under ousted leader Saddam Hussein. 

Responding to the suggestion that the thaw in ties with Iran would
anger Washington, Dulaimi said: "Nobody can dictate to Iraq its
relations with other countries." 

Iraq is anxiously trying to improve its ties with other Muslim
countries to win legitimacy and undermine insurgent support. But
mainly Sunni-led Arab states have been cautious about embracing the
Shi'ite-dominated, U.S.-backed Iraqi authorities. 

Al Qaeda's Iraq wing, led by Jordanian Abu Mussab al-Zarqawi, said it
would kill Egypt's top envoy Ihab el-Sherif, issuing photographs of
personal documents as proof it held him. 

Its statement referred to a "sharp sword against the infidels'
ambassador," an apparent hint that he could be beheaded. It included
no demands or possibility of negotiation. Zarqawi's followers have
frequently filmed beheadings of captives for maximum political
impact. 

"The sharia court of al Qaeda Organization in Iraq has decided to
hand the apostate, the ambassador of Egypt which is allied to Jews
and Christians, to the mujahideen to ... kill him," said the group.
Cairo did not comment on the statement. 

Sherif's abduction off the streets on Saturday was the first in a
series of strikes on diplomats. 

Pakistan withdrew its ambassador from Baghdad on Tuesday after his
motorcade was attacked by gunmen. Bahrain's envoy was shot in the
hand in his car in an apparent kidnap attempt. 

The al Qaeda statement threatened more such strikes. 

"This will be the fate of ambassadors of the tyrannical states
because Jihadist Iraq today is not secure for infidels ... and
America cannot protect itself, let alone others."Continued ...
