[cia-drugs] Fw: Staged Government Terror Attack
I have posted this in my Blog, but do you the courtesy of sending it to you for your convenience. The words in the subject line are appropos.

Radio host Alex Jones, who predicted a staged attack on the World Trade Center involving the use of Osama bin Laden as a fall guy in July 2001, has now gone on record with a second prediction that a staged government terror attack will occur before the end of October unless a gargantuan effort to prevent it is launched. Only through a massively increased counter-propaganda effort on behalf of all truth activists can prevent an imminent cataclysmic horror show that will make 9/11 look like a walk in the park. We have exhaustively documented that criminal elements in control of major western governments have carried out terror attacks and deliberately manufactured fake alerts for political purposes. In 2002, then White House press secretary Ari Fleischer told the Washington Times that terror alerts were issued as a result of all the controversy that took place last week, referring to political heat bestowed on President Bush when 9/11 prior knowledge evidence first surfaced. From this point onwards smoking guns of government complicity in 9/11 became intrinsically linked with fake terror alerts. In January of 2003 FBI and CIA whistleblowers told Capitol Hill Blue that the White House was scripting phony terror alerts to maintain hysteria, upkeep President Bush�s approval ratings and milk extra defense funding. The report that five Pakistani men had entered the States via Canada and were planning on carrying out a dirty bomb or biological attack was completely conjured up by the Bush administration�s black propaganda office. New York Harbor was shut down to visibly pump up the fear. One of the named suspects, Mohammed Asghar (pictured left), was tracked down to Pakistan by the Associated Press. He was a fat guy running a jewellers shop and had never even been to America. World Net Daily commented, �Other sources within the bureau and the Central Intelligence Agency said the administration is pressuring intelligence agencies to develop something, anything to support an array of non-specific terrorism alerts issued by the White House and the Department of Homeland Security�CHB reported that FBI and CIA sources said a recent White House memo listing the war on terrorism as a definitive political advantage and fund-raising tool is just one of many documents discussing how to best utilize the terrorist threat.� Since those early admissions, every single major terror alert that the US, UK or Canadian government has issued has proven to be completely fraudulent and scripted. Two months ago this website, in an article entitled 'Nexus Points Emerge For Potential Summer Attack,' predicted that, Numerous nexus points have emerged that suggest major western governments are preparing for a summer terror attack that will come close to but not match 9/11 in scale and will provide the justification needed for an air strike on Iran before the midterm elections in early November. Government mouthpieces in the US, UK and Israel are all hyping the inevitability of a Hezbollah nuke attack on a major western or Israeli city, which will provide the perfect justification for Neo-Fascist bloodsuckers to expand the war from Lebanon into Syria and Iran. Developments today indicate that the governments of the US and the UK are engaging in a process of announcing the prevention of numerous terror plots, in order to prepare the groundwork for a real attack, under protest that they did

For newcomers to this listserv, you will be able to read the truth in my work as this is history that the government does not want you to know. Additionally, the 9/11 Commission was designed to cover up the truth just as the Warren Commission was designed to cover up that murder.

The studies provide the most detailed technical information available to date related to the hijackings, and the transcripts of the aircraft-to-ground communications are the first complete government disclosure of each flight's air traffic control recordings. The documents are cited extensively in the 9/11 Commission Report to establish key facts and basic timelines for each hijacked flight. The NTSB Web site references the documents but does not provide copies, claiming the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 are under the jurisdiction of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The Safety Board provided requested technical assistance to the FBI, and any material generated by the NTSB is under the control of the FBI. The Safety Board does not plan to issue a report or open a public docket. The documents were released in their entirety to the National Security Archive and were received directly from the NTSB. The transcripts provide additional details to the information summarized in the 9/11 Commission Report. For example, the NTSB transcript differs slightly from the Commission's text of the warning that United Airlines Flight 93 received only minutes before the hijackers attacked. At 9:23am, the Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) shows a text message to Flight 93 reading: BEWARE OF ANY COCKPIT INTROUSION [sic]. TWO AIRCRAFT IN NY, HIT TRADE CNTER BUILDS [sic]. Five minutes later at 9:28am Flight 93 was sending the message ***(mayday)*** (hey get out of here) *** as it was being hijacked. The Flight Path Studies reconstruct the routes of American Airlines Flight 11, American Airlines Flight 77 and United Airlines Flight 175. Complied from recorded radar data and information from the Flight Data Recorders, the studies' illustrations of radar ground tracks, maps and altitude profiles provide graphic guides to each hijacking and were used by the NTSB to determine the takeover points where the hijackers gained control of the planes. In addition to the Flight Path Studies and Air Traffic Control Recording transcripts, the NTSB released a February 2002 Specialist's Factual Report of Investigation on United Airlines Flight 93 based on the flight's recovered digital data recorder -- the only

At first blush, grassy knollers may be disappointed, as Stone seems to steer clear of speculation about what really happened September 11th. http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/poliwood/poliwoodmain.php Aug. 11, 2006 Stone's Stupendous Masterpiece Raises Disturbing Questions By Ed Rampell Oliver Stone's World Trade Center is among the greatest disaster movies ever shot, although it's much more than a special effects spectacle. This colossal masterpiece returns the director of Kennedy assassination/ Vietnam/Central America classics to Hollywood's front ranks and the frontlines of films about touchy subjects that raise troubling questions, with what appears to be a knowing nod to 9/11 conspiracy theories. Based on actual accounts, WTC opens with just another day, as unsuspecting commuters rise and head towards Manhattan. Nicolas Cage and Michael Pena portray Sergeant John McLoughlin and rookie Will Jimeno (based on real Port Authority Police Department officers). Suddenly, a jet's shadow zooms across a high rise; booms are heard. A veteran of 1993's WTC bombing, McLoughlin leads a PADP detachment from midtown's Bus Terminal to downtown's disaster site. En route, a second plane strikes the South Tower. The sarge mutters that after the blind sheik's assault, authorities became prepared for everything, but not this, not for something this size. There's no plan for aerial surprise attacks. Arriving at the WTC, amidst mass carnage and confusion, the policemen see someone falling from the towering inferno. Nevertheless, the men-in-blue press on to the concourse, where McLoughlin asks for volunteers to rescue people stranded above. I got it, sarge, says the rookie. As Jimeno, McLoughlin and others enter hell's gates, viewers who know what will literally befall the first responders unaware of the impending apocalypse can't help but be moved. At the screening I attended, two women brought tissue boxes and offered Kleenexes to audience members - it was here this Native New Yorker needed eye wipe number one. It's the first of many Kleenex moments: as the Twin Towers collapse, Jimeno and McLoughlin are trapped by rubble. Pinned down, they fight for their lives, and Stone opens up the action to their flashbacks and those left behind. Like many disaster flicks, personal stories unfold. Coping with the unraveling Armageddon, the cops' families are brave in their own ways. At a March 18 L.A. demo protesting the Iraq invasion's third anniversary, I asked Maria Bello if she was in any upcoming socially conscious films. She replied, I don't ever plan to do a film with a message. I just happen to do films that move me, and if they happen to have a message for someone, that's fantastic as well. I'm currently in Oliver Stone's new film about 9/11. As McLoughlin and Jimeno's wives, Bello and Maggie Gyllenhaal's performances are eloquent rebukes to Squeaky Fromme-like pundits who mock 9/11 widows. But WTC is no tearjerker - or gung-ho flag waver. This homage to ordinary people's extraordinary courage could have ended with Bush's bullhorn speech atop Ground Zero's remains. But Stone (who, unlike Bush, volunteered for Vietnam) knows that with turmoil in Afghanistan, Iraq and much of the Middle East, the presidential bravado rings hollow today. Instead, the wise director of the 1980s Vietnam and Central America dramas Platoon, Born on the Fourth of July and Salvador ends WTC on a note of hope and solidarity, as Cage says: 9/11 showed us what humans are capable of, the evil, yeah sure, but it also brought out a goodness we forgot could exist. People taking care of each other, for no other reason than it was the right thing to do. It's important for us to talk about that good, to remember, because I saw a lot of it that day. In Stone's oeuvre, WTC may be closest to his other Lower Manhattan movie, 1987's Wall Street, starring Charlie Sheen, who goes-for-broker when bullish Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas) pronounces: Greed is good. Charlie plays the son of blue collar worker Martin Sheen (his offscreen father and activist). Stone, the son of a Wall Streeter, extols the proletariat's virtues in Wall Street and WTC, where plebians, not patricians, are working class heroes. 9/11 conspiracy theorists would naturally

The field is now wide open for the Democrats to turn to Lyndon LaRouche's leadership, especially as LaRouche has been the spearhead of the anti-Lieberman drive. Any other course is going to lead, quite predictably, to a smashing Democratic defeat in November. LaRouche representatives in Washington, D.C. are already receiving congratulations on the Lieberman defeat, much as they did when leading Republican thug Tom DeLay of Texas was knocked out of politics. The real question is: Do the Democrats have the guts to follow up? Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (Nev.), one of the many leading Democrats who had endorsed Lieberman prior to the primary, responded to the election result with his most feisty comments in months. According to the Aug. 10 Boston Globe, Reid said: But the perception was that he was too close to George Bush, and this election was, in many respects, a referendum on the President more than anything else. The results bode well for Democratic victories in November and our efforts to take the country in a new direction. Reid said polls show Democrats winning Republican-held Senate seats in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Montana, Missouri, and Rhode Island. A lot of time has gone by and the numbers haven't changed. In actuality, Ohio has gotten better. Montana has gotten better. And now we have three other seats we are looking at. We were only looking also at Tennessee and Arizona. Now we've added Virginia to the mix. Reid said. Out of the eight Republican seats Reid mentioned, the Democrats need to win six, in order to take control of the Senate. The Lieberman Stink Lieberman's loss is a direct reflection of the fact that the Connecticut electorate saw him as the kissing cousin of George W. Bush. Like the majority of the nation, Connecticut voters are in revulsion against the brutal, no-win war in Iraq, and the complete lack of action by the current Administration and Congress on the accelerating economic and financial collapse. Challenger Ned Lamont's anti-war campaign was a plus for him, but Lieberman's negatives far outweighed them. Washington sources tell EIR that when Lieberman began to threaten the party that he would campaign as an Independent if he lost the primary, he pushed many over the edge, against him. Lieberman comes by his thug-like behavior naturally. As LaRouche's EIR exposed in a series of mass-run offprints back in August 2002, Lieberman got his start in the Senate with the full backing of some of the most notorious right-wing fascist circles on the planet, including avowed Carlist William F. Buckley. Buckley not only waged a propaganda campaign against Lieberman's opponent, Lowell Weicker, in the Senate race of 1988, but bailed Lieberman out financially by steering him to the Cuban exile community in Miami. Lieberman maintained the close connections with the Cuban right wing, at least up through the 2000 Presidential election, when he was known as Gore's Man in Little Havana. (See Fascist William Buckley Put Joe Lieberman in the Senate, EIR, July 26, 2002.) Then there are Lieberman's mob connections, starting with Michael Steinhardt, the chairman and bankroller of the DLC when it was launched out of Pam Harriman's Democrats for the 80s late in that decade. Steinhardt, the son of the leading jewel fence for the Meyer Lansky syndicate, ran one of the filthiest hedge funds on Wall Street during the 1980s and 1990s. After he shut down his hedge fund in the wake of his company being involved in a scam over Treasury bonds, Steinhardt emerged as a major player in the Edgar Bronfman-founded Mega Group. Steinhardt, who now funds the neo-con New York Sun newspaper, has continued to be close to Lieberman. The two collaborated in the infamous September 1998 effort to

If this goes aheadwe absolutely cannot eat these foods. Fluoride is an extreme poisonthat has been foisted on us by the Government and vested interests in spite of the thousands of investigations that have proved it to be very deleterious to health. Fluoride's affects at the limits of 4ppm which is the allowable limit in drinking water have been well documented. What is proposed as a fumigator for foods is 70ppm. Do the math http://www.fluoridealert.org/ The Issue at hand... In a November 28, 2005 letter to Dow AgroSciences, Maureen Serafini, Director, NYS Bureau of Pesticides, approved sulfuryl fluoride (ProFume) fumigant on all processed foods and a large number of raw food commodities in New York. These are the foods most Americans eat. In response, FAN's Pesticide Project Director, Ellen Connett, requested Director Serafini to revoke this approval. Because sulfuryl fluoride breaks down to fluoride in the human body, fluoride is the endpoint of toxicological concern. In their approval, EPA approved the highest levels of fluoride residues in food in US history. Fluoride is persistent and bio-accumulates in the human body. Inhalation tests with all animal species exposed to sulfuryl fluoride revealed severe harm to the brain. Of particular concern was the finding of holes (vacuolation) in the white matter of the brain, and an abnormal softening (malacia) and cell death (necrosis) of brain tissue. Here are some scientific studies done as to how flouride affects the brain: http://www.fluoridealert.org/health/brain/ Flouride and the Pineal Gland http://www.fluoridealert.org/health/pineal/ And it is no accident that the addition of flourides is being advocated at this time--Flouride is part of the 'dumming down' process: http://www.mdvventures.com/flouride.htm Fluorides have been used to modify behavior and mood of human beings. It is a little known fact that fluoride compounds were added to the drinking water of prisoners to keep them docile and inhibit questioning of authority, both in Nazi prison camps in World War II and in the Soviet gulags in Siberia. Fluorides are medically categorized as protoplasmic poisons, which is why they are used to kill rodents. "Fluoridation is the greatest case of scientific fraud of this century" Robert Carlton, Ph. D., former U. S. EPA scientist on "Marketplace" Canadian Broadcast Company, Nov. 24, 1992. "Regarding fluoridation, the EPA should act immediately to protect the public, not just on the cancer data, but on the evidence of bone fractures, arthritis, mutagenicity and other effects" William Marcus, Ph.

If this were the real reason there are many ways in which it could be done that are much easier, cheaper, and far more effective. The real purpose behind water fluoridation is to reduce the resistance of the masses to domination and control and loss of liberty. "When the Nazis under Hitler decided to go into Poland, both the German General Staff and the Russian General Staff exchanged scientific and military ideas, plans, and personnel, and the scheme of mass control through water medication was seized upon by the Russian Communists because it fitted ideally into their plan to communize the world. ... "I was told of this entire scheme by a German chemist who was an official of the great IG Farben chemical industries and was also prominent in the Nazi movement at the time. I say this with all the earnestness and sincerity of a scientist who has spent nearly 20 years' research into the chemistry, biochemistry, physiology and pathology of fluorine--any person who drinks artificially fluorinated water for a period of one year or more will never again be the same person mentally or physically." - CHARLES E.

Not all newly-issued passports will be RFID-enabled, since mass production has been held up by the ongoing legal dispute over the technology. The first passports to be issued will be those produced during the pilot run of the project, but the full roll-out should be completed in about a year. Including the extra $12 security surcharge slapped onto passports last year, the new and "improved" models will cost $97, the same as they do currently. If you're overly concerned about the security implications or potential apocalypse causation, you might want to nab a passport now, since traditional passports will be valid until their listed expiration date.

[cia-drugs] In Your Guts, You Know He's Nuts
http://www.larouchepub.com/other/2006/guts_nuts.html In Your Guts, You Know He's Nuts by Jeffrey Steinberg The word is circulating in high-level Republican Party circles that former President George H.W. Bush is profoundly worried about the mental state of his son, the current President. According to the sources, Bush 41 has been communicating with his own intimate circle, including former National Security Advisor Brent Scowcroft, and former Secretary of State James Baker III, along with former President Bill Clinton, about G.W.'s over-the-top support for Israel's current self-destructive assault on Lebanon. The ex-President has reportedly conveyed to his close associates that he fears that G.W. is in a messianic state and is "unreachable," even by such close advisors as Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Insight magazine, the online publication of the Washington Times, buttressed this account, reporting in early August that, for the first time, a rift has developed between Rice and President Bush, over the President's one-sided support for Israel, in the ongoing Israeli Defense Forces invasion of Lebanon. The former PresidentsBush and Clintonwho have worked together on post-Katrina humanitarian relief efforts and other projects, are reportedly attempting to encourage President Bush to take the diplomatic high ground, and avoid further bloodshed in Lebanon, which could spill over into an out-of-control "clash of civilizations" conflict, engulfing much of the planet. Unfortunately for the Bush Family legacy, and for the fate of the United States and the world at large, there is scant evidence that the President is in the least interested in returning from the Far Side. If anything, his performance during an Aug. 7 press conference with Rice at Crawford, Texas, convinced many previously hopeful observers that George W. Bush is suffering from what some would dare to call "absolute insanity." To be sure, the notorious sociopath, Vice President Dick Cheney, has been one of the principal Bush Administration architects of Israel's no-holds-barred invasion of Lebanon, and has been waging a behind-the-scenes war with an ever-more inept and frustrated Condi Rice, over the issue. And, as even the New York Times noted on Aug. 10, National Security Council Near East chief Elliott Abrams, one of the leading "Clean Break" neo-cons remaining in the Bush White House inner circle, has been Cheney's mole, shadowing Rice to Israel and Lebanon, and reporting back to the Vice President's office, to make sure that the Israeli hardliners prevail, even if it means they steer the Jewish State into a suicidal Thirty Years' War misadventure across their northern border. Sources close to the White House have been reporting for several months that Cheney has been waiting in the wings for Rice's diplomacy to hit a brick wall. At that point, the sources report, Cheney intends to step back into the limelight, and press President Bush to order military action against Iran. Plans have been on the drawing board at the Strategic Command for a year or more, for vigorous air strikes against as many as 40 sites inside Iran, said by the Cheney faction to be part of an underground nuclear weapons program. Furthermore, the administration has been in talks with European NATO allies and Israel over the need to "take out" Iran's alleged asymmetric warfare asset, Hezbollah, prior to any direct confrontation with Tehran. From Cheney's point of view, the now ongoing Israeli incursion into Lebanon, which is moving as of this writing, into a fullscale ground invasion, is a critical first step towards a military confrontation with Iran, that, he hopes, will result in regime-change in Tehran. David Frum, the former Bush speechwriter who authored the now infamous "Axis of Evil" State of the Union address in January 2002, told the McClatchy newspapers that, "The reason he's [President Bush] been giving the green light to Israel in southern Lebanon is he's heading toward a confrontation with Iran. Hezbollah is Iran's strongest weapon. That's what this is aboutthe United States benefits from taking away Iran's weapon." Bush Eyes Armageddon But for all of their imperial fantasies, Cheneyand, perhaps, even Abramsare driven by real-world considerations like oil geopolitics, and the larger Synarchist drive to foment perpetual asymmetric warfare all across Eurasia, to shatter the Westphalian nation-state system.
[cia-drugs] LaRouche Offers Qualified Endorsement of United Nations Resolution 1701
After carefully reviewing the events at the United Nations Security Council, Lyndon LaRouche declared on Aug. 12 that the resolution represented a qualified triumph for former Presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton, Brent Scowcroft, and others who worked with U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to get the Lebanon crisis under control. http://www.larouchepub.com/pr_lar/2006/lar_pac/060812un_res_1701.html LaRouche Offers Qualified Endorsement of United Nations Resolution 1701 Aug. 12, 2006 (EIRNS)The following release was issued today by the Lyndon LaRouche Political Action Committee. On Friday, August 11, 2006, the United Nations Security Council unanimously approved Resolution 1701, calling for an immediate ceasefire in Lebanon, and spelling out the terms of a phased withdrawal of all Israeli forces from Lebanon, as an augmented United Nations Interim Force In Lebanon (UNIFIL) and troops from the Lebanese Army assume security control of the area south of the Litani River. The resolution held Hezbollah responsible for the initiating of the crisis, demanded the unconditional release of two Israeli hostages, and also encouraged "efforts aimed at urgently settling the issue of the Lebanese prisoners detained in Israel." After carefully reviewing the events at the United Nations Security Council, Lyndon LaRouche declared on Aug. 12 that the resolution represented a qualified triumph for former Presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton, Brent Scowcroft, and others who worked with U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to get the Lebanon crisis under control. Although critical of some features of Res. 1701, including the focus of blame on Hezbollah and other concessions to Israel and to President Bush, LaRouche observed that "these kinds of things happen" in the course of difficult diplomacy. "Sometimes the truth is sacrificed for the sake of peace." LaRouche, however, added that the full truth must be told. The situation remains, he warned, "tricky as hell." There are players in Washington, Tel Aviv, and elsewhere, who want the war to go ahead, despite the actions by the UN Security Council. The recent hype of the terror threat in London is but one indication that there are many possible triggers for a renewed larger war. LaRouche called for effective security and intelligence work, to roll up the potential terrorist networks, while refusing to succumb to the kind of war-hype tactics employed by Bush, Cheney and Blair around the London arrests. LaRouche added that the greatest threat to peace is the state of mind of President Bush, himself. Watch for Benjamin Netanyahu to pull some major move inside Israel, in the name of Dick Cheney, LaRouche cautioned. While saner voices in the United States prevailed for the moment over the would-be mass murderers, the threat of war has not been eliminated. Just one look at John Bolton's face as Condi Rice was casting the vote in favor of Res. 1701, tells you that the war party is very upset and will not give up. LaRouche concluded, the people around the Bush Sr. family deserve credit for trying to stop the war. Will it succeed? That is unknown. __._,_.___ Complete archives at http://www.sitbot.net/ Please let us stay on topic and be civil. OM YAHOO! GROUPS LINKS Visit your group "cia-drugs" on the web.

[cia-drugs] Spy cameras fail to focus on street crime
http://www.washtimes.com/metro/20060813-121827-2123r.htm Spy cameras fail to focus on street crime By Matthew CellaTHE WASHINGTON TIMESAugust 13, 2006 Surveillance cameras like those authorized by the D.C. Council for police investigations and now being put in place have shown limited success in decreasing violent crime in other cities. Baltimore, for example, set up about 80 cameras in May 2005 in high-crime neighborhoods. Volunteers and retired law-enforcement personnel monitor the images in real time, but the cameras have not helped put criminals behind bars. "Generally, the State's Attorney's Office has not found them to be a useful tool to prosecutors," office spokeswoman Margaret Burns said. "They're good for circumstantial evidence, but it definitely isn't evidence we find useful to convict somebody of a crime." Miss Burns said Baltimore prosecutors kept detailed statistics from the first nine months of the camera program. Most of the 500 cases forwarded to prosecutors were quality-of-life crimes, she said, and 40 percent of those cases were dropped by prosecutors or dismissed by the courts. "We have not used any footage to resolve a violent-crime case," she said. Miss Burns said police sometimes misidentify suspects because the cameras produce "grainy" and "blurry" images. "We have had that happen more than once," she said. The D.C. Council, faced with a sharp increase in crime, passed emergency legislation July 19 that allows the Metropolitan Police Department to use surveillance cameras in neighborhoods as part of an emergency plan. D.C. workers on Thursday began installing the first four of an expected 47 cameras throughout the city. Officials said the four cameras are temporary and will be replaced by permanent ones later this month. About 24 cameras will be deployed by the end of August, and 23 more will be added in September, police said. Police Chief Charles H. Ramsey is required to notify only two persons about plans to place a camera in any given neighborhood: an advisory neighborhood commissioner and the appropriate council member. The cameras will operate 24 hours a day, but police will review the images only when a known crime may have been recorded. Chicago deployed a few dozen cameras in neighborhoods in July 2003. Authorities there captured their first drug transaction 19 months later, in February 2005. Police arrested three suspects and confiscated 12 packets of heroin. However, the cameras have not helped in criminal investigations. "From my perspective, I would love it if we had footage of the murderer leaving the house, but that hasn't happened yet," said Kevin Smith, a spokesman for Chicago's Office of Emergency Management and Communications, which administers and monitors the 170-camera network. Police in San Francisco said a camera paid off in an investigation for the first time in June, when they arrested a man in connection with a shooting in April. Nine months after the first cameras were installed in neighborhoods, a camera captured the image of a man getting out of a car. The man subsequently shot at another man and missed, injuring a 13-year-old girl. The image was not recorded, but police said the camera was key to the investigation. Surveillance cameras also have generated headlines for the wrong reasons. In April 2005, a San Francisco police officer was suspended from the department for using surveillance cameras to ogle women at San Francisco International Airport. New York officials say surveillance cameras in public-housing projects have led to substantial decreases in crime. Written policies and random audits help guard the system against abuse, but that proved ineffective when the tape of a 22-year-old man who fatally shot himself in the lobby of a housing project in March 2004 surfaced on a pornographic Web site. Critics argue that cameras only push criminals into unobserved areas. A University of Cincinnati study in 2000 concluded that surveillance cameras have a short-term deterrent effect, which likely would increase when the public is notified about their presence. Cameras in Baltimore, Chicago, New York and San Francisco are labeled as police property. No police department logos are affixed to the D.C. cameras that were in place before the recently crime emergency. D.C. police spokesman Kevin Morison said police are required to post signs indicating that an area is under surveillance. He could not say whether such notification would be required under a clause dealing with "exigent" circumstances. Mr. Morison said several neighborhood leaders have requested cameras. Marc Rotenberg, executive director of the District-based Electronic Privacy Information Center, said he has heard neighborhood leaders express approval of the cameras at hearings but is not sure whether most residents share that
