[cia-drugs] U.S.-Canada Military Plan Could Place Troops in Each Other�s Country
U.S.-Canada Military Plan Could Place Troops in Each Other’s Country By Matthew Rothschild, November 17, 2008 The militaries of the United States and Canada are wrapping up a seven-day exercise called “Vigilant Shield” on Tuesday. This marks the continuation of an ever-closer relationship between the two. For instance, did you know that the United States military could go into Canada in times of emergency? And the Canadian military could go into the United States? This extraordinary fact appears in a joint document of the U.S. Northern Command and the Canada Command. (The Pentagon established NorthCom in October 2002, and the Canadian military established the Canada Command in June 2005.) The document is entitled “Canada-US Civil Assistance Plan,” and it is dated February 14, 2008. David Pugliese of the Ottawa Citizen broke the story about this plan at the time, but it received little attention in the United States. “The purpose of the Canada-United States Civil Assistance Plan (CAP) is to provide a framework for the military of one nation to provide support to the military of the other nation in the performance of civil support operations (e.g., floods, forest fires, hurricanes, earthquakes, and effects of a terrorist attack).” This framework is designed “to save lives, prevent human suffering, and mitigate damage to property,” the plan says. The plan anticipates scenarios for using for using violence. “Opposing forces are not expected during the conduct of operations described in this plan,” it says. “However . . . commanders should consider the following Anti-Terrorism/Force Protection issues: (1) Terrorists organizations could conduct operations against the Canadian or US force, or in the civil support operations area; (2) State/provincial and local police capabilities could be severely degraded in the area of operations, allowing a corresponding rise in criminal activity that could affect the Canadian or US force; and (3) Environmental factors ranging from weather to contamination and disease could significantly affect the Canadian or US forces.” Both the Canadian and U.S. forces have the right to use deadly force in self-defense, the plan says, though “there are no standing . . . rules of engagement or rules for the use of force,” the plan says. “Consequently, every mission will require unique guidance to deployed forces.” “Support for law enforcement operations is not covered in this plan,” the document says. But it “will be included in the Canada-United States Combined Defense Plan.” That plan is not readily available. Cross-border support “will only be provided when agreed to by appropriate authorities in both the Government of Canada and the U.S. Government,” the document says. Canada Command and NorthCom “will develop potential options of the military forces of one nation to support the military forces of the other.” These options will then go to Canada’s Chief of the Defence Staff, which will seek the approval of the Canadian government. On the U.S. side, NorthCom “will present military options to the SecDef, who will subsequently seek the approval of the President to deploy military forces to Canada.” “Execution authority,” the document says, rests with the Canada Command and with NorthCom. Training for such eventualities has already been approved. “Cross-border movement of military resources is authorized for training and exercises in preparation for bilateral military-to-military civil support,” the document says. The document was signed by Lieutenant-General M. J. Dumais, commander, Canada Command, and General Victor E. Renuart, commander, US Northern Command. “It’s completely bizarre and it’s frightening,” says Kevin Best, a social justice activist in Canada who has long worried about the increasing U.S. military presence in Canada. As far as Canada’s military presence in the U.S., Best said, jokingly, “That’s really scary for you guys, isn’t it?” http://www.progressive.org/mag/wx111708.html

* RTR Lease is a Lousy Deal for Wild Bison --- http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/2426/t/7926/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=316 Your comments are needed by 5:00 pm, MST, Friday, November 21, 2008, on a tentative agreement involving a 30-year lease of grazing rights from the Royal Teton Ranch - between state and federal agencies, some conservation groups, and the Church Universal Triumphant (CUT). If this land lease goes through, CUT will receive $3,300,000 for leasing their land for a mere 30 years so that a handful of captured, tested, and tagged bison could temporarily occupy portions of their native range outside Yellowstone's north boundary. TAKE ACTION TODAY FOR THE BUFFALO! The agencies are pressing forward with a decision and have now prepared an environmental assessment for public comment. BFC opposes the terms of the land deal that degrade wild buffalo and subject them to invasive and unnecessary hazing, capturing, testing, collaring, and implanting telemetry devices in pregnant females. Restrictive fencing, arbitrary limits on the number of buffalo allowed to roam there that break social group and familial bonds, provisions for another potential capture pen, and drop dead time lines including forced removal back to the Park by April 15. If these provisions are removed, BFC could support using taxpayer money to permanently remove cattle from Church Universal Triumphant lands. FWP is accepting public comments on the draft EA through Friday, November 21. Buffalo Field Campaign has provided a sample letter below, as well as supporting information, to help you craft yours. FWP must receive your comments by 5:00 pm MST Friday, November 21, 2008.

Click HERE to download a full copy of FWP's EA http://fwp.mt.gov/publicnotices/notice_1895.aspx Subject: Your Letter: I am writing in regards to the Draft Environmental Assessment on the Royal Teton Ranch Grazing Rights Purchase. Please register my opposition to the proposed action for the following reasons: The proposed action is a major federal action requiring National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) analysis as well as Montana Environmental Policy Act (MEPA) analysis, and requires full analysis in an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The EA is deficient and does not include an adequate range of alternatives. The EA references related agreements not provided and the proposed action threatens to influence and bias these contractual agreements. The proposed action further threatens to restrict management adaptation in the Interagency Bison Management Plan (IBMP), and inappropriately relies on approval by a private party. The proposed action may reduce the ecological benefits of having wild bison on the landscape. Montana Fish, Wildlife Parks P.O.

Human rights judge Carlos Gajardo said Tuesday he was questioning German Cofre, who turned up alive this month - and with a second family in Argentina. Soldiers surrounded Cofre's house in '73 and led him away to a secret prison. His wife never saw him again before she died in'97. An employee of the city street cleaning department and a Communist party member, Cofre was one of thousands of leftists rounded following the'73 military coup. Some, like current President Michelle Bachelet, were eventually released. Many others were known to have been killed. And some just vanished - presumably tortured, killed and buried in clandestine graves or tossed into the sea. But Cofre apparently was released, and fled to the Argentine city of Mendoza, where he established a new family. Back in Chile, his wife had him declared legally dead in'91. A funeral was held in'95 after experts wrongly identified as his remains found at a local cemetery. Deputy Interior Minister Felipe Harboe said the family received a government stipend granted to victims of general Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship. There is no evidence that the Chilean family knew Cofre was still

Begin forwarded message: From: shane_digital [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: November 18, 2008 9:52:28 PM PST To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [IPCUSA] Ron Paul Confronts Bernanke On Global Currency Plans Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ron Paul Confronts Bernanke On Global Currency Plans Congressman demands to know if discussions regarding new reserve system to replace dollar have taken place Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet.com Tuesday, November 18, 2008 Congressman Ron Paul confronted Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke this morning about plans to replace the dollar with a new global currency during the House Financial Services Committee meeting on Capitol Hill. Already we see talk….about a new international world reserve currency and to me that's pretty important because the fiat dollar reserve system is not gonna work anymore, said the Congressman, adding that currencies have failed throughout history. Paul asked Bernanke, In your meetings with other central bankers, does this thought come up about a new international world reserve currency and if so, does the subject of gold ever come up….is there a move on to replace the dollar system? I don't think the dollar system is dead, I think the dollar remains the premiere international currency….I think the dollar system remains quite strong, responded Bernanke. Bernanke failed to address the issue of a new system of currency so Paul repeated the question of whether the subject ever came up, to which the Federal Reserve chairman responded, no it doesn't. (Article continues below) Asked if the subject of whether such a currency, or indeed the dollar itself, would ever be backed by gold and if gold ever came up in conversation, Bernanke responded, only in terms of the sales that banks are planning. Despite Bernanke's dismissal of talk about a new world currency system, such speculation has been rife and indeed French President Nicolas Sarkozy has repeatedly called for the dollar to be demoted as the premiere currency. French Economy Minister Christine Lagarde has also called for the dollar to be replaced by the Euro as the world reserve currency, so to believe that such proposals have not emerged in meetings between central banks is stupidly naive. In September, the Chinese state media, the official voice of the ruling Communist Party, called for the creation of a new currency system following the collapse of Lehman Brothers. The recent G20 meeting was itself billed as Bretton Woods II in reference to the first Bretton woods conference at which the dollar was established as the world reserve currency in the summer of1944. Nobel prize-winning economist and former World Bank chief Joseph Stiglitz has also called for a new global currency, as have scores of other top economic analysts. Bernanke's claim that such talk has not cropped up during central bank meetings is dubious to say the least.

[cia-drugs] Neocons, Philip Zelikow, the Alleged Need for Regime Change
11/17/2008: Philip Zelikow, Neocons - Additions as of November 16, 2008 Several of the new additions to the 9/11 Timeline this week concern the 9/11 Commission, in particular its executive director Philip Zelikow, who played a significant role in shaping the commission’s take on assistance allegedly provided to the 9/11 hijackers by elements linked to the Saudi government. First, he blocked requests for interviews by commission investigators researching the allegations, then he denied them access to a key document, the 28 redacted pages from the Congressional Inquiry, and finally he fired one of the investigators. Other entries about Zelikow cover his interview of former Clinton Attorney General Janet Reno, with which a staffer was appalled, and an interview of his close associate National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice; she was not put under oath and no transcript was made. Other entries about the 9/11 Commission point out that its chairman Tom Kean was repeatedly contacted by the White House over the selection of the commission’s lawyer, that the length of the extension it requested was determined by political considerations, and that some commissioners thought that opposition to the extension from House Republicans was orchestrated by Vice President Dick Cheney. There are also a number of new entries about Neoconservatives, such as their push to invade Iraq starting in January 2001, their hiring by the White House, and a July 2001 claim Iraq had nuclear weapons. Entries on two of the most famous neocon pieces in the immediate aftermath of the attacks have also been added: Michael Leeden’s connecting the attacks to the decision not to overthrow Saddam Hussein in 1991, which was published on the day of the attacks itself, and Ann Coulter’s call for carpet-bombing of Muslim countries a couple of days later. Leeden followed up by demanding the Bush administration scourge the Middle East until US rage was “sated”, and the charge for regime change in Iraq was led by Bill Kristol and included Republican Senator George Allen. Finally, in mid-2003 leading Neocon author Laurie Mylroie claimed the CIA and State Department were hiding connections between Iraq and 9/11. Regarding associates of the 9/11 hijackers, an Arab man in Texas claimed he was offered money by Marwan Alshehhi to take flying lessons, a Somali immigrant possibly linked to the Flight 77 hijackers was detained a couple of weeks after the attacks, and a Saudi who knew Hani Hanjour was convicted of lying to the FBI in 2002. Miscellaneous entries point out that security at US chemical facilities was poor before 9/11, which was highlighted by a think tank study in 1999 and the US surgeon general in late September 2001. Finally, an end times website indicated the apocalypse was upon us shortly after the attacks, although it has presumably been delayed, and former counterterrorism “tsar” Richard Clarke held something back from the 9/11 Congressional Inquiry. http://www.historycommons.org/news.jsp?oid=140393703-734 Michael Hayden Caught in a Lie kevinfenton @ 4:12 pm November 18 2008 Current CIA and former NSA Director Michael Hayden claimed to the 9/11 Congressional Inquiry in prepared remarks on 17 October 2002: “Indeed, NSA had no knowledge before September 11th that any of the attackers were in the United States.” I always suspected this was not true and here is the proof, evidence submitted at Zacarias Moussaoui’s trial in 2006. It’s documentation from August 2001 about the passage of information about two of the hijackers, Khalid Almihdhar and Nawaf Alhazmi, to criminal agents at the FBI. Due to restrictions related to the “wall,” the passage had to be approved by the NSA’s general counsel. The documentation, passed between the NSA’s representative to the FBI and the general counsel, states, “FBI would appreciate priority handling on this request, since al-Mihdar is already in the U.S.” It later goes on to point out that Almihdhar “arrived in New York City on July 4, 2001 on a B1 visa issued in Jidda, Saudi Arabia.” Clearly then, the NSA did know that one of the attackers was in the US before 9/11. It is hard to imagine that Hayden could not have been aware of this at the time he was interviewed by the 9/11 Congressional Inquiry, as the NSA intercepted Almihdhar’s calls for years before 9/11, including when Almihdhar was in the USA, and Hayden discussed this with the inquiry (and also apparently the 9/11 Commission). However, for some unexplained reason the NSA failed to notify the FBI of the calls and this failure was later used as the justification for the NSA’s warrantless wiretapping programme. Obviously, the question is why Hayden was lying. Presumably, it was not simply for the good of his health and he wished to conceal some wrongdoing. Given that both the NSA and CIA were concealing information about Almihdhar and Alhazmi from the FBI one has to wonder
[cia-drugs] Wallstreet bailout; where�s the money going?
What is very evident, however, is that what Congress claimed, concerning the “impending financial crisis,” wasn’t true. It is also apparent that many in Congress believed what they were told by the White House. Since when has President George W Bush been known to tell the truth about anything? WALLSTREET BAILOUT: WHERE'S THE MONEY GOING? By Lynn Stuter November 18, 2008 When the U.S. House of Representatives, led by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), took up President George W Bush’s (R-TX) proposal to bailout Wallstreet – H.R. 3997, the House of Representatives was deluged with phone calls, faxes, and e-mails to representatives, calling on them to defeat the bill; the deluge ran somewhere in the neighborhood of 100-1 against the bailout. The message from the American people was clear, “do not do this.” Even though House Speaker Pelosi pulled every dirty trick in the playbook to get the votes needed, H.R. 3997 failed to pass. The Senate then took H.R. 1424 - a bill passed by the House of Representatives in March 2008 then sent over to the Senate - amended it with the bailout language, including enough earmarks to get the votes needed, passed it and sent it back to the House who also passed it. Like whores, legislators were bought for the taxpayer dollars they would get for their pet projects back home. All this was done against the will of the American people, the American taxpayers. The message from Washington, DC was clear: “We are Congress; we know better than you lowly taxpayers what you need.” To that end they pledged $700 billion taxpayer dollars to bailing out their Wallstreet buddies. It is now almost Thanksgiving and how is that bailout going? Well, let’s see. Stories have surfaced in the past six weeks about how that bailout money is being spent. Here are a few: 1- After Bailout, AIG Execs Head to California Resort 2- AIG Execs Splurged On English Hunting Trip 3- Reid Unhappy With Bonuses For AIG Execs 4- Fed's Bailout For AIG Swells To More Than $150B 5- Where Is The Bailout Money Really Going? 6- Treasury Head Unveils Revised Bailout Plan From just these few stories, it becomes clear that: 1. Congress had no idea what they were doing when they passed HR 1424. They had no idea what the bill said; they had no idea how the money was really going to be spent; all they really knew was what they were told. 2. HR 1424, while appropriating the money, provided no clear-cut perimeters of how it could be spent. 3. The money is going to banks and companies that don’t need a bailout, they need new top management. 4. What Congress claimed the money was for, and what the money is really for, are entirely different. This past week has brought news that the big three automakers, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler all are asking Congress for a financial bailout. Why not? Congress did it for their Wallstreet buddies; why not for the big three automakers. But the reception in Washington has been quite different than it was for the Wallstreet bankers and brokers. While Congress put no restrictions on their buddies on Wallstreet, the same isn’t true for the big three automakers. And when it comes to using the Wallstreet bailout money to help stop home foreclosures, that isn’t going to happen either. Why? Is it because the “big three” provide jobs for Americans and mortgages provide homes for Americans? We’ve known for a long time that Congress approves sending American jobs overseas. Why would it be such a stretch that doing anything to help the American taxpayer would be out of the question? What is very evident, however, is that what Congress claimed, concerning the “impending financial crisis,” wasn’t true. It is also apparent that many in Congress believed what they were told by the White House. Since when has President George W Bush been known to tell the truth about anything? The American people should be outraged. To that end; the American people should, 1- demand the resignation of every Senator and Representative who voted for H.R. 1424; 2- demand that every penny of the bailout money be returned to the Treasury; 3- demand the prosecution of President George W Bush and Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson under every statute applicable. The American people are suffering with no relief in sight as their jobs disappear, and they have no means by which to put food on the table or a roof over their head. Congress can bailout the rich who don’t need it but does nothing to help those truly suffering. And it must be noted here that both presidential candidates, John McCain and Barack Obama voted for the bailout. Since then, Barack Obama has become president-elect Obama. His followers believe he is going to help the little guy, redistribute the wealth, spread it around a little. Really? The bailout was a good example of how Obama will go about redistributing the wealth. The Wallstreet bailout was a taking of money, from the American

The superlatively discreet foreign-exchange banker diversified from the very beginning, selling antiques and procuring loans. Remarkably, Rothschild was willing to cut into his own profits in order to secure future business. And, earlier than most, he understood that time and information meant money, and he pulled out all the stops to remain in constant contact with associates across Europe. That network came in handy when he helped finance England's war effort during the Napoleonic Wars.

[cia-drugs] Drug Spy infiltrates US Embassy
Mexican official: Drug spy says he leaked DEA info By E. EDUARDO CASTILLO The Associated Press Monday, October 27, 2008 MEXICO CITY — A major drug cartel has infiltrated the Mexican attorney general's office and may have paid a spy inside the U.S. Embassy for details of DEA operations, Mexican prosecutors said Monday.The Drug Enforcement Administration's intelligence chief expressed concern about the alleged spy's claims, but said he couldn't confirm that the Embassy had been infiltrated, and that it was too early to pull out undercover agents for fear their identities may have been compromised.Mexico's Attorney General Eduardo Medina Mora said five officials of his Organized Crime unit were arrested on allegations they served as informants for the Beltran-Leyva cartel. He said there are indications other spies still work inside his agency.The Embassy employee, who also at one time worked for Interpol at the Mexico City airport, is now a protected witness after telling Mexican officials in Washington that he leaked details of DEA operations to the cartel, an attorney general's official told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. The official said he was not authorized to speak on the record.We are not planning changing anyone at the embassy at this point, DEA intelligence chief Anthony Placido said at a Washington news conference called to celebrate Mexico's capture of Eduardo Arellano Felix, a leading member of a violent Tijuana-based cartel.Law enforcement work anywhere in the world, and certainly in Mexico, can be perilous, Placido said in response to a question about whether the infiltration endangered undercover agents. Is it dangerous? Absolutely.U.S. Ambassador Tony Garza congratulated Mexico for Arellano Felix's arrest in a statement late Monday.He said the DEA and the U.S. Marshals provided information on Arellano Felix's whereabout to Mexican authorities which helped them locate him.This is another example of the positive results when U.S. and Mexican law enforcement agencies share information, Garza said.The revelations of corruption inside the control centers of the U.S.-Mexican anti-drug effort were a major blow to President Felipe Calderon's anti-drug campaign, in which he has sent tens of thousands of troops and federal police across Mexico to combat violent cartels.Calderon himself has long acknowledged corruption is widespread in police forces, and Placido said that with billions of dollars flowing to the cartels from U.S. consumers of illegal drugs, some corruption is inevitable on both sides of the border.Monday's case represents the most serious known infiltration of anti-crime agencies since the 1997 arrest of Gen.

MEXICO CITY (AP) - The Mexican army on Friday announced that it has made the
largest seizure of drug-cartel weapons in Mexico's history.
The cache of 540 rifles, 165 grenades, 500,000 rounds of ammunition
and 14 sticks of TNT were seized on Thursday at a house in the city of Reynosa,
across the border from McAllen, Texas, Mexican Assistant Attorney General
Marisela Morales said.
The seizure ... is the largest in the history of Mexico involving organized
crime, Morales told reporters at Defense Department
headquarters, where the army displayed hundreds of rifles, pistols, and
shotguns, and laid out rows of grenades and crates of ammunition.
Morales said the largest previous bust involved a cache of 280 weapons found in
1984.
The weapons in this latest seizure belonged to the Gulf drug cartel,
an official said after Morales made her statement. The official spoke
on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the
news media.
Soldiers detected the cache when they chased suspects into the home
after the men refused orders to stop, Morales said. Three suspects were
detained.
It was unclear whether the raid was related to an FBI
intelligence report obtained by a Texas newspaper in October that
warned the Gulf cartel was stockpiling high-powered weapons in Reynosa
to prepare for possible confrontations with U.S. law enforcement. Morales did
not take questions from reporters.
The man who allegedly leads the cartel's hit squad in the area,
Jaime Gonzalez Duran, was mentioned in the FBI report as having ordered
dozens of hit men to the Reynosa area as part of those plans.
Gonzalez Duran was arrested in Reynosa on Friday.

[cia-drugs] Albino tiger as cartel pet
The title in this article is misleading: it's not albino, just another mutant
created through human engenuity - breed brothers to sisters long enough and all
sorts of mutations occur.
This cat most likely traces it's origins to Guadalajara, Mexico, which got it's
original stock of white animals from Siegfried and Roy, who also spent some
time in Pakistan.
This is not a species of subspecies, and is an animal whose street value is
less than $10,000.00. White tigers are not rare as the gene pool has become
so polluted that nearly any orange tiger outside of the Species Survival Plan
may produce the white coloration. John Cuneo of Hawthorne Corporation, a
supplier of tigers to circuses, dumped nearly two dozen tigers at the now
defunct BEARCAT Hollow in less than six months. Most of those adult animals
were of the rare white coloration. They disappeared in short order and no
one seemed to be able to recall where they went to, which is rather telling.
There is a layer in the CIA/FBI/OC corporate cascade that includes these white
tiger breeding facilities. Nashville Zoo at Grassmere's Cougar Hill Sanctuary
Association merged with Great Cats of Nevada in 2002, which was going to be the
springboard for the creation of Great Cat Resorts, with the numero uno facility
opening in the dumpy but sleepy town of Racine, MN, population -300.
There is allegedly a great deal of information already known about the CIA's
long-standing use of zoos and circuses and zoos for covert ops, though most
people seem to associate that with clowns and clown faces. Clown faces aside,
any factual information on that history would be an interesting addition to
what we have seen happen: a proliferation of so-called sanctuaries that are
used as cover for trafficking in weapons, narcotics, and money laundering
operations.

Mexican police who raided a drug-traffickers' party at the weekend seized
weapons, vehicles and a number of exotic pets - including this albino tiger..
Authorities in Mexico City said yesterday that more than a dozen members of an
alleged drug-trafficking ring were arrested in the raid on a sprawling
mansion in the upmarket neighbourhood of Desierto de los Leones - Desert of
the Lions.
The name was certainly apt: among the animals seized were two lions and two
tigers.
Marisela Morales, organised crime prosecutor, said that 11 Colombians, two
Mexicans, a Uruguayan and an American were detained during the raid.

Ms Morales identified the gang’s leader as Teodoro Fino Restrepo, who
allegedly arranged for sea-borne cocaine shipments from Colombia to Mexico’s
Beltran Leyva cartel. The American was named as Raul Raul Munoz Montalvo, of
Texas.
All the suspects are being held on suspicion of drug trafficking, money
laundering and organized-crime activities, Ms Morales said. Nine Mexicans
working as waiters and disk jockeys were briefly held and released.
The mansion, whose walls, ceilings and furniture are made almost entirely of
ornately carved wood, appeared to have been used by the traffickers for
parties on nights and weekends. Those who received invitations were picked
up at nearby shopping-centre parking lots in vehicles with blacked-out
windows to prevent them from seeing where they were going.

Ayman al-Zawahiri criticized U.S. President-elect Barack Obama in an 'audio message' posted on the Internet, calling him dishonorable and a servant of whites, the Associated Press reported. The second-in-command of Islamic militant network al-Qaeda [al-CIAduh] has called on Muslims to harm criminal America. You just can't keep a good terrorist down (or dead) for long, especially when Bush needs a terror attack/martial law before January 20. Al-Qaeda Second-in-Command Criticizes Obama in Message, AP Says 19 Nov 2008 Al-Qaeda's second-in-command, Ayman al-Zawahiri, criticized U.S. President-elect Barack Obama in an audio message posted on the Internet, calling him dishonorable and a servant of whites, the Associated Press reported. Al-Zawahiri said Obama is the direct opposite of honorable black Americans such as Malcolm X, AP said. He also uses a derogatory racial term to imply Obama is a black American who does the bidding of whites, AP says. The recording, if its authenticity is confirmed, will be the first comment issued by al-Qaeda [al-CIAduh] on the Democratic Party's election victory. Al-Qaida No. 2 insults Obama with racial epithet 19 Nov 2008 Al-Qaida's No. 2 leader used a racial epithet to insult Barack Obama in a message posted Wednesday, using a demeaning racial term implying that the president-elect is a black American who does the bidding of whites. Ayman al-Zawahri said in the message, which appeared on militant Web sites, that Obama is the direct opposite of honorable black Americans like Malcolm X, the 1960s African-American rights leader. In al-Qaida's first response to Obama's victory, al-Zawahri also called the president-elect -- along with secretaries of state Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice -- house negroes. Speaking in Arabic, al-Zawahri uses the term abeed al-beit, which literally translates as house slaves. But al-Qaida supplied English subtitles of his speech [LOL!] that included the translation as house negroes. Al-Qaeda message condemns Obama 19 Nov 2008 The second-in-command of Islamic militant network al-Qaeda [al-CIAduh] has called on Muslims to harm criminal America. In a message purportedly from Ayman al-Zawahiri, the al-Qaeda deputy accused US President-elect Barack Obama of betraying his Muslim roots. He likened him to a house slave - who had chosen to align himself with the enemies of Islam. Injured, re-killed Ayman al-Zawahri is back!

The newspaper said in a report on Saturday that a constant supply of fresh fighters from inside the country and across the border in Afghanistan is helping the Taliban to stay in the fight. Bajaur Agency is a main operating base for Al Qaeda [al-CIAduh] and the Taliban. Pakistani intelligence believes that Ayman al-Zawahri, the second-in-command of Al Qaeda, has been a visitor.

Short excerpts of the message were aired on the Arab satellite news channel Al-Jazeera. In them, al-Qaida Number 2, Ayman al-Zawahri, accused Iran of working with U.S. forces. Al-Zawahri said Tehran was co-operating with the Americans in occupying Iraq and Afghanistan and slammed Iran for recognizing the two governments.

This marks the continuation of an ever-closer relationship between the two. For instance, did you know that the United States military could go into Canada in times of emergency? And the Canadian military could go into the United States? This extraordinary fact appears in a joint document of the U.S. Northern Command and the Canada Command. (The Pentagon established NorthCom in October 2002, and the Canadian military established the Canada Command in June 2005.) The document is entitled “Canada-US Civil Assistance Plan,” and it is dated February 14, 2008. David Pugliese of the Ottawa Citizen broke the story about this plan at the time, but it received little attention in the United States. “The purpose of the Canada-United States Civil Assistance Plan (CAP) is to provide a framework for the military of one nation to provide support to the military of the other nation in the performance of civil support operations (e.g., floods, forest fires, hurricanes, earthquakes, and effects of a terrorist attack).” This framework is designed “to save lives, prevent human suffering, and mitigate damage to property,” the plan says. The plan anticipates scenarios for using for using violence. “Opposing forces are not expected during the conduct of operations described in this plan,” it says. “However . . . commanders should consider the following Anti-Terrorism/ Force Protection issues: (1) Terrorists organizations could conduct operations against the Canadian or US force, or in the civil support operations area; (2) State/provincial and local police capabilities could be severely degraded in the area of operations, allowing a corresponding rise in criminal activity that could affect the Canadian or US force; and (3) Environmental factors ranging from weather to contamination and disease could significantly affect the Canadian or US forces.” Both the Canadian and U.S. forces have the right to use deadly force in self-defense, the plan says, though “there are no standing . . . rules of engagement or rules for the use of force,” the plan says. “Consequently, every mission will require unique guidance to deployed forces.” “Support for law enforcement operations is not covered in this plan,” the document says. But it “will be included in the Canada-United States Combined Defense Plan.” That plan is not readily available. Cross-border support “will only be provided when agreed to by appropriate authorities in both the Government of Canada and the U.S. Government,” the document says. Canada Command and NorthCom “will develop potential options of the military forces of one nation to support the military forces of the other.” These options will then go to Canada’s Chief of the Defence Staff, which will seek the approval of the Canadian government. On the U.S. side, NorthCom “will present military options to the SecDef, who will subsequently seek the approval of the President to deploy military forces to Canada.” “Execution authority,” the document says, rests with the Canada Command and with NorthCom. Training for such eventualities has already been approved. “Cross-border movement of military resources is authorized for training and exercises in preparation for bilateral military-to- military civil support,” the document says. The document was signed by Lieutenant-General M. J. Dumais, commander, Canada Command, and General Victor E. Renuart, commander, US Northern Command. “It’s completely bizarre and it’s frightening,” says Kevin Best, a social justice activist in Canada who has long worried about the increasing U.S. military presence in Canada. As far as Canada’s military presence in the U.S., Best said, jokingly, “That’s really scary for you guys, isn’t it?” http://www.progress ive.org/mag/ wx111708. html

General Hayden is lying. An interview with Colonel Terry Markham, CIA Langley might prove interesting since he sent out an email with photos of smiling Iraqi terrorists in the Iraqi desert with oakbark cami clothing, military assault rifles and a US made Jeep. Markham sent this with CIA contract agent David Conway from Lockheed Martin, who was part of the terrorism response experiment at Fort Belvoir in July/August of 01. Conway would later become part of the Northcomm operation and in 2004, after training at CIA base in Omaha, NE, was offered control of the operation in the upper midwest.

First, he blocked requests for interviews by commission investigators researching the allegations, then he denied them access to a key document, the 28 redacted pages from the Congressional Inquiry, and finally he fired one of the investigators. Other entries about Zelikow cover his interview of former Clinton Attorney General Janet Reno, with which a staffer was appalled, and an interview of his close associate National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice; she was not put under oath and no transcript was made. Other entries about the 9/11 Commission point out that its chairman Tom Kean was repeatedly contacted by the White House over the selection of the commission’s lawyer, that the length of the extension it requested was determined by political considerations, and that some commissioners thought that opposition to the extension from House Republicans was orchestrated by Vice President Dick Cheney. There are also a number of new entries about Neoconservatives, such as their push to invade Iraq starting in January 2001, their hiring by the White House, and a July 2001 claim Iraq had nuclear weapons. Entries on two of the most famous neocon pieces in the immediate aftermath of the attacks have also been added: Michael Leeden’s connecting the attacks to the decision not to overthrow Saddam Hussein in 1991, which was published on the day of the attacks itself, and Ann Coulter’s call for carpet-bombing of Muslim countries a couple of days later. Leeden followed up by demanding the Bush administration scourge the Middle East until US rage was “sated”, and the charge for regime change in Iraq was led by Bill Kristol and included Republican Senator George Allen. Finally, in mid-2003 leading Neocon author Laurie Mylroie claimed the CIA and State Department were hiding connections between Iraq and 9/11. Regarding associates of the 9/11 hijackers, an Arab man in Texas claimed he was offered money by Marwan Alshehhi to take flying lessons, a Somali immigrant possibly linked to the Flight 77 hijackers was detained a couple of weeks after the attacks, and a Saudi who knew Hani Hanjour was convicted of lying to the FBI in 2002. Miscellaneous entries point out that security at US chemical facilities was poor before 9/11, which was highlighted by a think tank study in 1999 and the US surgeon general in late September 2001. Finally, an end times website indicated the apocalypse was upon us shortly after the attacks, although it has presumably been delayed, and former counterterrorism “tsar” Richard Clarke held something back from the 9/11 Congressional Inquiry. http://www.historyc ommons.org/ news.jsp? oid=140393703- 734 Michael Hayden Caught in a Lie kevinfenton @ 4:12 pm November 18 2008 Current CIA and former NSA Director Michael Hayden claimed to the 9/11 Congressional Inquiry in prepared remarks on 17 October 2002: “Indeed, NSA had no knowledge before September 11th that any of the attackers were in the United States.” I always suspected this was not true and here is the proof, evidence submitted at Zacarias Moussaoui’s trial in 2006.

Marvin Driver is the father of Donald Driver, a wide receiver for the Green Bay Packers. Police arrested Marvin Driver for outstanding traffic warrants early Monday in the driveway of his mother's house. When the family went to bail him out of jail, they couldn't find him. It took them a whole day to track him down in a local hospital. Exactly what happened after Marvin Driver was picked up remains a mystery, depending on who you believe. Winston Driver said his brother was fine when the police cruiser pulled away on Monday. DRIVER FAMILY Marvin Driver hasn't been able to speak since he was hospitalized. He left here in perfect condition, you know, Winston Driver said. I could tell by the way the police officers-- the way they was grabbing him and pulling him and snatching him, you know -- that he was in trouble. A statement from HPD said Driver was unresponsive when they arrived at the Mykawa Substation in southeast Houston. A doctor at the jail determined Driver needed medical help. Paramedics transported him to Memorial Hermann Hospital. At a news conference Wednesday, family members provided photos of Marvin Driver in his hospital bed. He couldn't speak, but relatives said he wrote down on paper towels what happened to him. 11 NEWS Marvin Driver has been communicating by writing on paper towels. Driver wrote that the officers, whom he said he knew personally, took him to a Valero station, kicked him in the stomach, elbowed him in the neck and forced something down his throat. Told him to 'swallow this and you're going to see Jesus,' community activist Quanell X said at the news conference. The activist, who spoke on behalf of the family, is asking for an investigation by HPD's internal affairs division. We're asking Chief Harold Hurtt to remove all of the officers involved in the beating of Marvin Driver -- remove them and put them on desk duty or administrative leave. Suspend them from patrolling the streets, he said. We take allegations such as these very seriously and will begin a thorough investigation into the matter, HPD said in a statement released late Wednesday. The two officers remain on duty pending further investigation. Family members said the arresting officers also made disparaging remarks about Donald Driver, the NFL player. It could be somebody he knew, or something, said Michael Driver, the player's brother. Once again, in his papers he [Marvin] mentioned he does know this officer personally. Donald Driver is reportedly on his way to Houston to be with his father. nfl_081119WMV_20_7586-t240.jpgcontroller_240_flash_ready.gifM_IMAGE.11beb4b9125.93.88.fa.d0.1cbb9d732.jpgM_IMAGE.11beb4b9125.93.88.fa.d0.1cbbab77d.jpg
