-Caveat Lector- Jack McLamb an ex policeman a few years ago said he had 200,000 of 550,000 police and soldiers to say no to the NWO when they get told to bring it about..He puts out a newsletter called Aid and Abet.Which a huge proportion subscribe to.They tried to kill him by putting him on the beat, after demotion, where he was likely to get shot and he did get shot but he lived to keep encouraging the ones who could summon the courage to say no. Nicky -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wednesday, 1 September 1999 17:19 Subject: [TheEagle-L] Vampire Killer 2000 PLEASE DISTRIBUTE OPERATION VAMPIRE KILLER 2000 P.O.BOX 8712, PHOENIX, ARIZ. 85066 OPERATION VAMPIRE KILLER 2000 A U.S. POLICE ACTION PURPOSE The Police Officers, National Guardsmen and military officers who have contributed to this special publication are aware of a plan to overthrow the Constitutional Republic of these United States of America. This publication, many months in preparation, was found dif- ficult to compile for many reasons. One important reason was that none of the officers involved were pleased with the duty of bringing to the attention of our colleagues the names and activities of some in our nation who have been in the past (or presently) engaged in what can only be described by law as treason and/or sedition against their own government. While detailing the plan of these Internationalists, the main goal of this special police publication will be to promote an active program that will defend America from those at work forming an oligarchy of Imperialism against this nation of free people. The herein-described plan to halt this unAmerican activity can succeed only with the combined efforts of the People's Protectors (the Police, Guardsmen and Military) and their countrymen in the private sector. DEFINITIONS: In defining "treason" and "sedition" we look to the Fifth edition of Black's Law Dictionary. pg. 1345, and pg. 1218 TREASON: The offence of attempting by overt acts to overthrow the government of the state to which the offender owes allegi- ance; or of betraying the state into the hands of a foreign power. SEDITION: ...knowingly becoming a member of any organization which advocates the overthrow or reformation of the existing form of government of this state by violence or unlawful means. The facts and information about some of the persons and their actions listed in this special report is prima facie evidence of their long involvement in activities directly designed to overtly overthrow the lawful, constitutional government of the United States of America. These individuals thus hope to deliver the People of the U.S. into the hands of a foreign power known as the United Nations, which is actually an oli- garchy of the world's superrich, who have no allegiance to any one nation and who control the U.N. from behind the scenes. As the reader will find, many of these persons are, or have been, members of various organizations that have as their purpose the destruction of this Constitutional Republic. IMPORTANT NOTE: Not all of the people listed in this report are involved in treason and sedition against the United States. Some of the individuals listed and quoted are pre- senting evidence of these crimes committed by others or are listed/quoted for informational purposes only. As patriotic Americans of all races. religions and political beliefs, we claim our right to defend our Republic from all enemies foreign and domestic. This educational work is one such attempt. THE NEW AGE / NEW WORLD ORDER GOVERNMENT PLAN Many of our nation's INTERNAL PROTECTORS know of the well laid plan which will culminate in the year 2000, to usher the United States, along with the rest of the nations of the world, into a "utopian" global community allegedly under the control of a "philanthropic" United Nations. A great many of our fellow Officers and National Guardsmen are taking a stand against this plan because they realize that their fellow Americans were never allowed to know of this plan nor given the opportunity to vote on such a change in their government. In addition, the officers are concerned patriots and realize that this plan of world domination is injurious in the extreme, and a total fraud perpetrated against the people of the world! This publication outlines the plan of these American Internal Protec- tors which they believe will stop this diabolical agenda. THE NEW ORDER Allegedly this new order is being set up to save THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD from a whole variety of

Re: [CTRL] JFK Jr. A Homo
-Caveat Lector- Here are just a few of the astonishing charges that sources throughout the gay community have leveled at John-John: --That he frequents the same, gay nightclubs as homosexual billionaire Malcom Forbes. While the particularities of John-John's taste in men is not altogether clear - since he is typically found in the presence of other preppie bisexuals like himself - it is the consensus of insiders, deep insider, that John-John, like LFP's Mike Albo, likes young Asian boys. But then again, who doesn't? Why am I not surprised somehow? In a message dated 99-08-05 10:24:18 EDT, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: You would be surprised at the number of gays who preside on the executive boards of major banks and corporations We might be surprised too at the number of gays who preside over the "executive boards" of Western NATIONS, i.e., the CFR, Trilateral Commission, Bilderbergers. About a decade ago, the female French ambassador to one of the great gatherings of globalist power-brokers returned home in disgust, in the French press describing the supposedly straitlaced conference as virtually a gay "bath house," with the American, British (no surprise there) and German officials the most obnoxious in flaunting their homosexual "superiority" behind its closed doors, as if attending some kind of queer "family reunion." It's taken almost a decade for the government of Belgium, doubling as the capital of the EU, to be exposed as 'coincidentally" also the hub of a continental pedophile ring. Maybe one day we'll discover just HOW influential some "kinks" are in the character of those who aspire to be the "unique and special" overlords of humanity. In this Politically Correct era --or age of Orwellian truisms like "slavery is freedom" and "pathology is normalcy"-- some things dare not be said, or even suggested. I apologize only to those who feel I'm here equating one minority "sexual orientation" with the role played by that orientation among the POWERFUL -- in those obsessed with POWER relations, even (and perhaps more centrally, because symbolically) in sexual terms -- and among those who megalomaniacally see themselves as "superior," as a reaction against feeling so "different," almost ALIEN. (A psychology-qua-worldview which has its roots in ancient Greece, the source of much of our heritage in "Western Civilization.") I'm not singling out ordinary homosexuals for any blame; I'm singling out an elite of the truly powerful, in whom homosexuality provides support for an "alien" perspective that dismisses women as irrelevant and coldly views most of us as animal-like "breeders." A decade ago I recall reading a column by one of the Cockburns --a family of radical social critics, famed for their investigative journalism-- in which he stated that, in his opinion, there were three tremendously powerful groups involved in conspiracies on a global scale. I forget who two of them were -- Opus Dei, as an arm of the SMOM and Vatican intelligence, was one of them, I believe. The third, however, I remember clearly, because at the time it was a surprising and, on the surface of it, outrageous statement for anyone of Cockburn's stature to make. The third most powerful group on his list was "homosexuals," sans further elaboration. On the surface of it, and especially in the PC era --after having been systematically brainwashed by overt and secret homophiles in our culture for at least three decades now-- that sounds like bigoted nonsense without a shred of rational support. But once one simply entertains the NOTION, and begins slowly to collect all the scattered bits of data that are and were normally deliberately EXCLUDED from the "official" public record --thus from mass-perception-- for a variety of dubious reasons (e.g., in the Victorian age, from a cultural aversion to the "indelicate," which would damage the reputations of many among the high and mighty), what's been kept SECRET, kept OUT of public view, begins to pile up and congeal in a surprisingly orderly way, illuminating some things that remain otherwise inexplicable or incongrous, until one gains a greater capacity for vision into what amounts to a "blind spot" in our whole culturally-conditioned picture of "The Way Things 'Really' Are." In short, there IS INDEED an argument from which such an assertion can derive -- but only IF one dares to confront one's unconscious fears in the face of certain psychological/social "taboos" which --it turns out-- are ESSENTIAL to our falsely "homogeneous" picture of "human" society (as if obvious dichotomies in it were superficial rather than more deeply rooted). Those with REAL power stake their lives on the reality of a dichotomy between Masters and Slaves, between Predators and Prey -- for them, two very DIFFERENT species ...

Orlin Grabbe/A - Today's Lesson From The Ayn Rand Cult by Jeff Walker Despite [Alan] Greenspan's youthful two-year stint at the Julliard School for music, followed by a year touring with Harry Jerome's swing bank playing clarinet, Greenspan would be greeted by Rand with: "How's the Undertaker? Has he decided that he exists yet?"--the latter dig referring to his initial philosophical skepticism. This also despite what Barbara Branden recalls, namely that, "It was incredible how he always had a beautiful woman at his side. . . . I think it was the attraction of his intellectual power and probably his reserve." Another Collective member was less favorably impressed by that reserve: "It's simply that he is a very cold person. It's very hard to know what's on his mind. Through those Coke-bottle glasses, you can't even tell he's awake sometimes." Says friend and NYU professor Robert Kavesh, "sometimes you just want to say, 'Damn it, Alan, tell me a dirty joke. Or at least listen to one.'" Decades later, despite having pushed himself to become a decent tennis player and golfer for political schmoozing purposes, his nickname in Washington became 'The Creeper.' Libertarian economist Murray Rothbard, who knew Greenspan in the late 1950s, writes that "Greenspan was supercilious and monotonic; he had the sense of life of a dead mackerel . . . He's a namedropper." = Digital Society Ecash Spells Doom for Central Banks? Gee. Too bad. Eat your heart out. Leading academics have welcomed comments made by a senior Bank of England official that Internet-based currencies could drive central banks to extinction. Speaking at a banking conference last Friday in Wyoming, the Bank of England's deputy governor, Mervyn King, admitted that emerging forms of currency used in Web-based trade could fall beyond the control of the world's central banks. Losing control of the money flow will naturally mean the loss of economic power and could wipe out central banks altogether, according to King. Alistair Kelman, visiting fellow at the London School of Economics (LSE), said: "It's about time central banks realise the implications of the digital economy." He added: "I think the central banks will now start imposing controls on their client banks so that ecash is rolled-out in a secure manner. This will ensure we don't have companies inventing money that people can allegedly trust on the Net which could subvert the entire banking system." Ian Angell, professor of information systems at LSE, said King's comments are a refreshing change from the traditional lack of forward thinking exhibited by "mealy mouthed" Bank of England officials. Angell claims King's prediction that central banks could become redundant will come true. "The European Union and national governments have completely lost the plot, wasting time deliberating over the single currency when it's electronic cash that is the real issue. What King is talking about is the inability of the state to control its own destiny," he said. http://www.silicon.com/a32415, September 1, 1999 Barbecued Children DOJ Tries to Force Judge Out on Waco Case by Lee Hancock WACO, Texas -- U.S. Justice Department lawyers on Tuesday challenged a federal judge's authority to take control over evidence in the Branch Davidian case, setting up a high-stakes legal showdown. An Aug. 9 order in which U.S. District Judge Walter Smith demanded custody of all documents and other evidence is without any legal basis under federal or civil court rules, Justice Department lawyers argued in a 19-page motion. The judge's move ``threatens a wholesale intrusion'' into the Executive Branch and an ``unwarranted and substantial burden'' on the entire federal government. ``It should be plain ... that separation of powers prevents a federal court from acting as an independent investigator,'' the motion said. The argument is the latest development in an escalating skirmish over who will control and investigate the vast array of evidence, documents, photographs and other materials tied to the Branch Davidian standoff. It came one day after a Waco federal prosecutor warned Attorney General Janet Reno that lawyers within her department had long withheld evidence that the FBI fired pyrotechnic tear gas within hours before the compound burned. For years, government officials had insisted otherwise. The federal prosecutor, Bill Johnston, told ``The Dallas Morning News'' on Tuesday that he felt compelled to go public with his warning after being given a 5-year-old document that discusses the use of ``military gas'' by the FBI on April 19, 1993. He said he was concerned because the document, a three-page set of notes detailing an interview with members of the FBI's hostage rescue team, included handwritten notations suggesting that it be kept from anyone outside the department's legal staff.

[CTRL] Russian Success
-Caveat Lector- Organized crime becomes modern Russian success story Copyright © 1999 Nando Media Copyright © 1999 Associated Press From Time to Time: Nando's in-depth look at the 20th century Reputed Russian mobster criticizes FBI, American politicians Bank of New York chairman defends lender By BARRY RENFREW MOSCOW (August 31, 1999 9:16 p.m. EDT http://www.nandotimes.com) - Perhaps the most successful business in Russia today is organized crime, which is spreading across the world, threatening to do more damage than Soviet spies ever dreamed of doing during the Cold War. Reports of alleged money laundering that link Russian organized crime to billions of dollars channeled through the Bank of New York could show how Russia's crime syndicates are multinational operations. Although often dubbed the "Russian mafia," organized crime in Russia does not fit the usual picture of underworld mobsters. It is far bigger and more complicated: a three-way alliance of officials, businessmen and gangsters reaching into every level of society and the economy. Organized crime and corruption reach the highest levels of the Russian government, with some analysts saying it's no longer possible to distinguish between the two. "It has been known for a long time that the entire government system is corrupt," said Konstantin Borovoi, an independent liberal member of parliament. "Corruption has drained the nation's resources beyond all imaginable limits." At its core, corrupt members of Russia's political and business elite have plundered billions of dollars in government funds and assets with the aid of criminal gangs, authorities say. The money has been sent overseas to secret bank accounts or used to create hundreds of Russian companies and banks that combine legal and criminal activities. Through these companies and other rackets, the Russian Interior Ministry estimates that organized crime controls 40 percent of the economy, although other observers say the figure is higher. Corrupt officials and gangsters work with these criminalized businesses, helping them get insider deals, avoid taxes and even kill rivals. "The situation in our country differs from Western Europe and the United States. There organized crime controls only 'criminal' activities, like prostitution, drugs and gambling. In our country, it controls all types of activity," a Russian government study of organized crime concluded. Top political and business figures, including members of President Boris Yeltsin's entourage, have repeatedly been linked to corruption allegations in the Russian media. Very few have ever been charged or convicted. Russian law enforcement agencies are seen as hopelessly incompetent or corrupt, with many prosecutors and police officers taking kickbacks. Russia's top policeman, Interior Minister Vladimir Rushailo, admits his forces are not winning the struggle. "Organized crime is occurring on an extremely dangerous scale," he said recently. About 5,700 criminal groups are thought to operate in Russia and many of them are expanding abroad, according to Russian and Western estimates. Russian criminal syndicates are burrowing into other countries, buying up legitimate businesses while also managing rackets like prostitution, gun running and sophisticated banking and computer fraud operations, Western officials say. Corruption has been a problem in Russia for centuries. It reached unprecedented levels following the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, when some officials and their cronies divided state assets among themselves. While the government talked of creating wealth by selling off factories and other state property and sharing the money with the Russian people, insiders skimmed off some of the most valuable assets. As a few people became fabulously wealthy, many Russians slipped into abject poverty, souring their beliefs in democracy and the market system. At the same time, insiders were getting government licenses to buy oil, diamonds and other state-owned natural resources at artificially low prices and making millions by selling them overseas, investigators say. Government funds were diverted and disappeared without a trace or were used by private banks to purchase state assets in rigged privatization deals, they say. Borovoi gave an example of how government funds are looted: If a government ministry wants funding, it must allocate up to 3 percent of the requested sum for bribes to lawmakers and officials. The lawmakers then approve the request, and the ministry must then pay up to half of the funding to the lawmakers and officials to get the money. "A corrupt official can't act alone. It's always a chain, and there is always a mob connection," he said. Working alongside the corrupt officials and businessmen are criminal gangs whose members fit the Hollywood image of ruthless killers in leather jackets and dark glasses. Their activities include drug, prostitution and protection rackets, with up to
[CTRL] Fw: [CTRL] homo video slipped into public schools-most parents unaware
-Caveat Lector- "Its Elementary" Video Lies to the Children about Homosexuality One more reason to get your kids the hell out of public school -- how many more reasons do you need?? Sample explanation for what it means to be gay: Homosexuality is a profound mistake ( as are all sins if they are not intending to do wrong). Humans are not homosexuals by nature. People become homosexuals because of their environments. Particularly critical is the environment during puberty. Suggestions, ideas strange dreams are symptoms of confused attempts to understand new and blunt sexual desires and are rashly interpreted as defining someone as being one sexuality or another. If these conclusions are accompanied by actual homosexual acts they are even more strongly reinforced. Free will and identity Human instincts can be subjected to acts of will. Sexuality is a choice of identity which follows choices of action which follow from choices of what to have sexual fantasies about. Human beings are especially able to control their thoughts, entertaining some and dismissing others. However, if this free will is not recognised it is easy to get into a cycle of thinking which starts from accepting a hypothesis about yourself as true rather than as a possible choice (even if the options are sometimes difficult).For example: "I am lazy " could be supposed true by someone. When the person who thinks this lies around in bed in the morning he observes this inaction as evidence of the statement "I am lazy." As he repeatedly chooses to do so the evidence mounts and the idea becomes fixed in his identity. It may even have physical manifestations and change his physiology and psychology. This process can easily occur for any idea good or bad about the self which is based largely on evidence resulting from ones own action. The idea may be "I am 'gay'" or "I am content" or "I love eating lots of food". The truth is - you are what you choose to be ; you do what you choose to do ; you think what you choose to think. There may be long time delays between the causing choices and the effects but anyone can change themselves. There are reformed ex-drug addicts, reformed ex-compulsive gamblers and ex-homosexuals. In all these sins prevention is 1000 times better than cure and much easier. It has been suggested that homosexuality is genetically inherited and that those who have this 'predisposition' are victims of it not sinners of any sort. However, there are other things which are probably genetically influenced to give predispositions to for example gambling or alchoholism .It could also be argued (and has been) that it is programmed into men's genetics for them to be unfaithful to their partner. All these things don't make it the right thing to do, nor does it prevent these things from being regarded as sinful. Drinking alchohol will still be regarded as sinful even if you have a predisposition to be an alchoholic. The trick as every post alchoholic will tell you is never touch another drop after you quit - it is a long slippery slope - your life is better without it. Once a certain desire is connected to your identity strongly and you get in some way hooked on it, it will always be easy to return to it - you are unable to forget the satisfaction. The difficult task is remembering the bad side of the desire, such as hangovers, lost money, self loathing or a simply sense of loss because of what you missed out on. But if you are to change for the better, you must remember this and the past desires you bound up with your identity can become disconnected from what you choose to become. By Rev. J. R : As a former homosexual sinner I am never surprised by the degrading, racist, judgmental, and intolerant statements made by angry and demanding homosexual activist and others who for whatever reason want to take a stand against GOD and vent their frustrations toward me and my fellow Christian brothers and sisters that dare to take a stand and speak out against the sin of homosexuality. However I do find it very sad since I know all to well the bitterness, fears, anger, frustrations, and loneliness the accompanies a chosen lifestyle apart from God. : Homosexuality is a sin that is based on sex and more sex, and like all sin is pure rebellion and disobedience to God and His commandments. Since we are all born with a dark heart and into sin, we choose the brand of sin. The sin of homosexuality is no worse of a sin than any other sin such as cheating, theft, murder, unkindness, heterosexual sins or pride, sin is sin. Hope abounds for those who do not turn a deaf ear to the Word of God because the Good News is that JESUS died for ALL sins and ALL sinners including homosexuality. : I would like to encourage ALL Christians to take a stand against sin, remember we are not called to be tolerant of any SIN or any SINNER based on their sinful

Prosecutor before she was picked by Hillary to be Attny Gen). Throw in the claims by various cops and lawyers that knew her from Florida that she was being blackmailed by the mob since they had caught her in compromising positions as an alcoholic, molester of underage and teenage girls. If this is true, then of course Bill and Hillary can certainly keep her under control as shown by her groveling cover-up role regarding Chinagate, etc. etc. Ultimately evidence will emerge that she knew about the use of CS (deadly to children) gas, the participation of the Delta Commandos, and gave tacit approval to "burn the bastards" out. Or at least went quietly along with Webster Hubbell, Vincent Foster and Hillary regarding the "final solution" against the Waco people. Reno is a character from a Hanna Arendt political treatise.

White by Kendall/Hunt of Dubuque, Iowa (c) 1992- the story was called "John Smith Before Jamestown") about 1601 "John Smith was now about to plunge into the nightmare world of eastern Europe: where Catholics fought Protestants, or Turks, and Protestants fought Turks, or Catholics, or renegade mercenaries, or all three: where Germans fought Hungarians or Turks or Both: where Hungarians were sometimes both Austrian allies and Turkish vassals." "This was a world where the Austrian emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, Rudolph II, relieved his chronic insanity with periodic fits of uncontrollable rage; where Sigismund Bathory, Prince of Transylvania, of a family long-tainted with madness, abdicated and reclaimed his throne no fewer than three times' where his cousin Elizabeth, with the tran-sylvanian penchant so reminiscent of Count Dracula, indulged in beauty baths that ultimately took the blood, and lives, of 650 young women." "It was a place where incessant warfare and banditry brought desolation, famine, familial cannibalism, and other unspeakable horrors; where lucky prisoners wee enslaved, the less lucky butchered, and the luckless skinned alive." Plus it was cold in Europe! If I were a self respecting black father or mother in which the trail of my children's manhood may have meant being killed by my own son, which is a part of some tribes - I am not sure of Africa countries back then. Would I have sent them to that barbarous place? African gold is well known and before America the main wearing apparel in Europe seemed to be animal skins - Yet by using the tale of Robin Hood you could imagine that even before Hoods time that animals were prized. So who made it economically feasible for America to be settled and made a market for cotton? Was that stuff warm in a drafty castle? Yet, it could be dyed and this list has shown that knowledge of dye (color) in that time, and now, was money. It seems as if those people of dye have gone into pharmaceuticals.

SECTION I CURRENT INTELLIGENCE COX REPORT ON CHINESE ESPIONAGE FINALLY OUT. The declassified version of the Cox Report finally was released on May 25. Although there were no new bombshells, there is more detail and the whole controversy has been reinvigorated. There have already been calls for the resignations of Sandy Berger, the President's National Security Advisor, and Janet Reno, the Attorney General. (See item below about Berger.) Except for an item in the appendix that criticizes the CIA for warning industry that Congress was going to be questioning them (see 2nd item below), there is not much criticism of the Intelligence Community. The FBI and the Energy Dept counter- intelligence office did their jobs -- failures were mostly in top management at the National Labs, the Energy Dept, Justice and the White House. Congress will hold still more hearings and the scandal will be used against VP Gore's presidential campaign and also by those who would like to throttle back US-China relations and trade. http://www.house.gov/coxreport/ SANDY BERGER. The May 16 Washington Post had the best analysis I have seen on how the Clinton Administration makes foreign policy. The focus was on Sandy Berger, President Clinton's White House based National Security Adviser. Basically, it said that Berger and his deputy, Jim Steinberg, are the dominant policy makers, eclipsing SecState Madeleine Albright and SecDef William Cohen. Berger chairs the NSC Principals Committee which meets, on average, once a week, while Steinberg chairs the NSC Deputies Committee, which meets daily, often four times a day. SecState Albright and SecDef Cohen are powerful, too, of course, but, according to the Post do not have as much influence as Berger and Steinberg. Albright, Berger Cohen, the so called "ABC Club," meet for breakfast and lunch weekly. Finally, the Post said, Berger, who sees foreign policy issues primarily in term of US domestic politics, is closest to Clinton. Meanwhile, a Willam Safire op-ed piece in the NY Times (5/17) reports that Congress is so incensed at Berger's NSC "spin machine" that there have been threats to zero out the budget of the White House NSC staff. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/WPlate/1999-05/16/055l-051699-idx.h tml, http://www.nytimes.com/library/opinion/safire/051799safi.html CIA CRITICISM IN COX REPORT. AFIO member Richard Cummings noted that this section in the Appendix of the Cox report is worth reading. Quote: "CIA and Hughes. The Select Committee's attempts to investigate allegations made by a CIA analyst were made more difficult by certain actions of the CIA. The analyst had alleged that, while visiting Hughes in 1995, he had come across information indicating that technical data had been improperly passed by Hughes to the PRC in connection with the 1995 failure investigation, and that the CIA had ignored his request for a formal report to CIA Headquarters to that effect. As part of its investigation of Hughes' conduct in 1995, the Select Committee had previously determined that it should interview several of the Hughes employees from whom the CIA analyst said he had obtained his information since they were known to have played a part in the failure investigation. "Because the CIA analyst could not remember the names of the Hughes employees with whom he had spoken, the Select Committee asked the CIA to retrieve the information from its files. The CIA did so, but also, without the prior knowledge of the Select Committee, advised Hughes not only that the Select Committee might seek to interview these employees, but also of the lines of questioning that the Select Committee probably would pursue. The Select Committee was concerned that this notification may have inadvertently given Hughes the opportunity to destroy relevant evidence and allowed its employees to be less than candid. The Select Committee considered this action by CIA to be ill-advised and

A top secret, secure network across the intelligence community, called Intelink, has revolutionized the dissemination of U.S. intelligence in recent years. The author, a former NSA official, tells how the 13 intelligence agencies have gone from zealously guarding their own secrets to sharing many of them over "the world's largest, most secure network." Started in late 1994, Intelink is now used regularly by 50,000 analysts, operatives, military officers and policymakers with top secret security clearances at 100 different sites. Reportedly, they can access the latest satellite imagery from NIMA, search the network for communications intercepts from NSA, and chat electronically with other analysts. The searchable universe of Intellink consists of 440,000 electronic pages, which makes it a very large site by commercial standards. Intelink's operations center is housed at NSA, and all terminal are located inside top-secret government facilities. Only commercially available software was used in creating the net. Traffic on the net is highly encrypted. The intelligence agencies on the Intelink maintain their own internal intranets separated by firewalls from Intelink, leaving Intelink largely for "finished intelligence." At DIA the daily intelligence brief presented every morning to the Joint Chiefs, is now available to military commanders all over the world via Intelink within 15 minutes. The Intelink

NO ONE who is aware of these facts--least of all anyone associated with NewsHawk, can allow themselves the luxury of pretending that everything is presently just fine and dandy in our nation, when such malignant and malicious harassment and interference is being directed against such a relatively insignificant enterprise as NewsHawk by agents of the federal government.

[CTRL] FWD: Land: off limits to humans
-Caveat Lector- http://www.worldnetdaily.com/bluesky_lamb/19990901_xchla_land_ off_l.shtml WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 01 1999 Land: off limits to humans By Henry Lamb © 1999 WorldNetDaily.com Suppose half the land in the United States were suddenly declared "off limits" to people, and most of the remaining half were managed by government agencies to assure that the needs of "non-human populations" were given priority over the needs of humans. Grounds for another civil war? Had the transformation been declared suddenly, and publicly, there would undoubtedly be a public uprising of civil war proportions. The transformers are far too smart for that. Instead, the transformation plan is buried in tons of boring bureaucratic bunk that rarely catches a reporter's eye. Nevertheless, government agencies are quietly going about the task of taking control of every square inch of American soil in order to convert "at least half" of the lower 48 into wilderness, while managing most of the remaining half for "conservation objectives," forcing the people into so-called "sustainable communities." This plan was first published in the United States in 1992 by Dave Foreman, co-founder of Earth First! and now a director of the Sierra Club. Even though the plan was written by Dr. Reed Noss, and funded by The Nature Conservancy and the Audubon Society, no one took it very seriously. After all, who could take seriously the idea of locking up half the country beyond the reach of people? The Department of Interior took it seriously, as did the Environmental Protection Agency. Both federal agencies, under the direct instruction of Al Gore, changed dramatically their policies relating to land management. Both agencies adopted the idea that human beings were to be considered a "biological resource," and that ecosystem protection would be elevated to the same priority level as "human health." The United Nations took it seriously. Foreman's plan is named specifically, as "central" to the biodiversity protection scheme required by the Convention on Biological Diversity, in an official U.N. publication entitled, Global Biodiversity Assessment. Sadly, private landowners are now taking the plan seriously, even though they have no idea that the plan even exists. In South Florida, Jared Figley is being pressured by a state agency to leave the land his family has ranched for four generations. In Pennsylvania, Bob Learzaf's land, purchased by his great-grand-uncle in 1923, is being taken from him by the feds -- without compensation. From one end of the country to the other, people are being squeezed off their land under some pretense of protecting the environment. What we are now just beginning to see is hardly the tip of the iceberg. Dozens of federal programs have been launched to implement Foreman's plan incrementally. The U.S. Man and the Biosphere Program (USMAB) is working to expand 47 U.N. Biosphere Reserves in the United States, each of which consists of wilderness areas, "managed" areas, and "zones of transition," which are used to continually expand the area under government domination. Al Gore's Clean Water Initiative, and Clinton's Land Legacy Initiative, are both designed to extend federal jurisdiction over private land in the name of protecting the environment. At the same time, the President's Council on Sustainable Development is waging war on urban sprawl by promoting "visioning councils" to transform American cities into "sustainable communities." Without any public announcement, without any congressional debate, and certainly without the consent of the governed, the federal government is transforming America to conform to the plan Foreman published in 1992. "No," say the feds, "we're just trying to protect the environment." That's the same "feds" who for six years denied using pyrotechnics at Waco, led by the chief fed who "... did not have sex with that woman." Many, if not most, of the state and federal field workers have no idea that the policies they are implementing are even related to a grand plan to transform America. They are just doing as they are told, often defending the integrity of their agency, while being used by their superiors to subvert the very foundations of American liberty. Private property rights are constantly under attack as the major obstacle to "institutional environmental management." Property rights advocates are also attacked as "anti-environment" activists. Private owners are, by far, the best caretakers of the land. The problem is, private owners may not care for their land in the same way that the government thinks it should be cared for. By bringing the awesome power of government to bear on landowners individually, through its myriad programs, the government is succeeding in transforming America. Should private landowners wake up, and realize that what's happening to their neighbors will soon be happening to them, there may well be an uprising. Henry Lamb is the executive vice president of

[CTRL] Scientific Heresy
-Caveat Lector- The Wanderer August 26, 1999 Scientific "Heresy" by Joseph Sobran Science took it on the chin this week, and liberals are howling. The Kansas state board of education has dropped the requirement that the theory of evolution be taught in public schools. Even such "conservative" pundits as George Will, Charles Krauthammer, and Mona Charen have deplored the board's decision as benighted. Time magazine has already devoted a cover story to reaffirming Darwinism. Not that Kansas has banned Darwin; only that other views of human origins may be discussed in its schools, including so-called creationist theories. Aren't we all in favor of "diversity" in education? Not when it comes to the sacred doctrine of Darwinism! In other words, Darwinism has hitherto enjoyed the status of an established religion. It has been taught as dogma to children in public schools who are incapable of assessing it for themselves. It would be one thing if children were taught the scientific method and shown how it applies to biology. But they are not taught a method; they are taught a conclusion. And the conclusion, not the scientific method, is what stays with them after they leave school. This conclusion is presented as beyond rational doubt, contradicts religious teachings of man's origin, and smuggles into young minds a philosophy of atheistic materialism. Even at its own level, Darwinism involves serious difficulties. The fossil record provides little evidence of the intermediate species that must have abounded if evolution occurred over millions of years. Some organs would have been useless until they were fully developed, and until then would have been hindrances to survival for eons; how did they persist until they happened to become - by blind chance, mind you - functional? And why don't we see around us, even now, animals (or humans) in the process of evolving, with half-developed organs that serve no visible purpose now but may become advantageous in a million years or so? Did evolution cease when it realized its work was accomplished? Why doesn't the fossil record abound in prehistoric animals with dysfunctional organs and limbs that proved fatal to their continued existence? Why should blind chance produce only perfectly adapted species? The Darwinians may have answers to such questions, but they are likely to be too abstruse for high school students. So most students will have to take the Darwinian theory on faith. Philip Johnson, a leading anti-Darwinian thinker, writes in The Wall Street Journal: "A Chinese paleontologist lectures around the world saying recent fossil finds in his country are inconsistent with the Darwinian theory of evolution When this conclusion upsets American scientists, he wryly comments: 'In my country we can criticize Darwin but not the government. In America you can criticize the government but not Darwin.'" Or is Darwinism actually the foundation of modern government? Johnson goes on: "All the most prominent Darwinists proclaim naturalistic philosophy when they think it safe to do so. Carl Sagan had nothing but contempt for those who deny that humans and all other species 'arose by blind physical and chemical forces over eons from slime.' Richard Dawkins exults that Darwin 'made it possible to be an intellectually fulfilled atheist.'" Darwin himself hated Christianity. He thought he'd destroyed any rational basis for Christian belief. Marx heartily approved of Darwin, whose theory he believed supported his own notion that human history was evolving, Godlessly, toward Communism. Atheists love Darwinism, but - in public, at least - Darwinists try to mollify religious people by insisting that the doctrine has no negative implications for religion. Science has its sphere, they say, but so does religion. Stephen Jay Gould, for one, professes his "abiding respect for religious traditions," which seems to mean only that he thinks some of the moral rules promulgated by the great religions are acceptable, though in the end these rules have no divine authority and are no more than human preferences, some of which he happens to share. And many religious people try to reconcile science and religion by surmising that evolution itself could have been God's mode of creation, at least up to a point (the infusion of the immortal soul, for example). Just as Our Lord speaks in parables, which aren't intended as factual histories of prodigal sons and foolish virgins, the Old Testament may sometimes speak in figurative stories that aren't to be interpreted literally. A rational man may even reject both religion and Darwinism as unsatisfactory accounts of human origins. But Darwinism serves the purposes of those who want to discredit Christianity and impose secular humanism as an official quasi-religion. That's why so many liberals who know little of science want evolution shoved down kids' throats, no matter what their parents want. The issue is not just science versus religion,

'He was really weird,' [a neighbor] said. 'I'd often see him talking to himself or sometimes to his car. It was like he was petting a dog. He would talk to his car and pet it and say, "OK, car, I know you're really dirty, but I'll wash you in a little while."'" The Philadelphia Inquirer, September 1, 1999 Woman killed outside market Bucks mother of two shot while grocery shopping photo not shown Murder suspect Donald Anthony Traub laughs at reporters while being taken into custody. Authorities said he shot Karen Lee Hordis three times at close range. (John Slavin/Inquirer Suburban Staff) In what authorities said was a random killing, a 42-year-old mother of two was shot to death yesterday morning as she loaded groceries into her station wagon at a busy Warminster supermarket. Karen Lee Hordis of Ivyland was killed by a man who got out of an adjacent car, shot her twice at close range with a handgun, then leaned over her body and shot her again, authorities said. Authorities said Hordis died almost instantly as horrified shoppers watched. "She was shot because she was there," Bucks County District Attorney Alan M. Rubenstein said yesterday. "That's what makes this killing especially frightening." Minutes later, after a short chase, police arrested Donald Anthony Traub, 23, of Willow Grove, and charged him with the slaying. Rubenstein said that after the killing, authorities designated Traub as the suspect in two other random shootings in Warminster and Horsham last year that he described then as the work of a "psychopathic sniper." "We do believe that he is the one who committed those other seemingly random acts," Rubenstein said. He said the suspect in those shootings was driving a red car similar to the Oldsmobile Cutlass that Traub was driving when he was arrested yesterday. He also said that Traub fit the general description of the suspect in the earlier shootings. Traub is a high school dropout who neighbors said often wore a trench coat and combat boots and who wandered the streets mumbling to himself. A .38-caliber handgun, believed to be the murder weapon, was recovered from Traub's car, authorities said, and spent shell casings were found in his front shirt pocket. Police said the gun was not registered to Traub, and they declined to say who held the permit. Authorities will try to match the gun to bullets found after the earlier shootings, Rubenstein said. The shooting yesterday happened outside the Giant supermarket on West Street Road just after 9 a.m., while the store was bustling with shoppers - some of whom locked themselves inside after the shots were fired. Catherine Marshall of Ohio, who was shopping in the store, said she heard a grocery clerk scream, " 'He's got a gun, and he's coming this way.' " Police quickly linked Traub to the earlier shootings, which also happened in broad daylight. When they first approached Traub, he said: "I am the one you want. . . . I did it," according to the probable-cause affidavit filed in the case. Police now believe it was Traub who shot Donna Holbrook of Warminster in the face as she got out of her car at work in Horsham in August 1998. Six days later, the police believe, he shot Shawn Vanorder, 34, who was riding to work on a bicycle along Street Road in Warminster. Both victims recovered. In an interview yesterday, Vanorder said he was relieved that police had captured Traub. "I've been scared out of my mind ever since that day," he said. Holbrook declined to comment yesterday. Traub, a former resident of Warminster, was charged with first-degree murder in yesterday's shooting. He was arraigned before District Justice Charles A. Cappuccio and held without bail. As he left the courtroom in shackles, Traub said: "I didn't do it." Acquaintances of Traub, who knew him when he lived with his father on Date Street in Warminster, described him as a troubled loner. Neighbor Heidi Hoelzle, 28, who lived next door to Traub until he moved out two years ago, described him as a quiet young man whose odd demeanor sometimes frightened her. "He was really weird," she said. "I'd often see him talking to himself or sometimes to his car. It was like he was petting a dog. He would talk to his car and pet it and say, 'OK, car, I know you're really dirty, but I'll wash you in a little while.' " Down the street, Lora Enwright, 23, stood in the front yard of her mother's house, thumbing through a 1994 William Tennent High School yearbook. She stopped at a senior-year photo of Traub, unsmiling in a tuxedo, his hair disheveled and combed down onto his forehead. "He was kind of geeky and quiet. He didn't talk much," said Enwright, who rode the bus with Traub to school each morning. "If you were nice to him, he was nice to

-Caveat Lector- INFOWARS II RALPH MCGEHEE, CIABASE: Presidential Decision Directive 68, ordered the creation of the International Public Information system -- and said "information aimed at the U.S. audience should be coordinated integrated, deconflicted and synchronized with the IPI to achieve a synergistic effect" One major role for the CIA [which is part of the system] is the creation of false evidence to support its operations -- it refuses to share those details with other agencies. Internally it even restricts details of such operations using strict need-to-know and compartmentation policies. So when it conducts many and massive deception operations those deceits inevitably will end up in the domestic media and will shape our foreign policies. With the creation of the IPI these stories will be disseminated world-wide and especially domestically. What are some types of CIA False Evidence operations? The CIA forges documents and places them where they will be discovered and disseminated widely. (It effectively demonizes targets even the most honorable while glorifying sponsored "demons"). It sets off bombs, blaming them on targets. It plants "communist" or now probably "terrorist" weapons shipments and arranges for them to be found as it broadcasts details of such widely. It buys foreign media and employees and book publishers, establishes policy-making think tanks and their publications, it employs foreign radio and television stations -- all used to disseminate its deceits. Doctored photographs, false atrocity stories, falsely attributed scholarly books written criticizing or blaming this or that movement or target (over 1000 titles published in one period) make up more of its arsenal of lies. Its operations in academia sponsor or subvert thousands of domestic academicians and untold numbers of foreign academics. It also sponsors numerous politicians and their groups and media operations. So this is what the American people can expect under the new IPI. To appreciate its terrible power I recommend reading George Orwell's classic "1984."

[CTRL] Italy Generals Indicted Over Mystery Plane Crash
-Caveat Lector- Italy Generals Indicted Over Mystery Plane Crash ROME (Reuters) - An Italian magistrate Wednesday ordered nine people, including four generals, to stand trial on charges stemming from one of Italy's most enduring disaster mysteries -- a 1980 plane crash in which 81 people died. In his indictment, Magistrate Rosario Priore said the nine, eight of them serving or past members of the military or the military secret services, should stand trial on charges including high treason and giving false testimony. But Priore, according to excerpts of the 5,468-page indictment carried by Italian media, said those who actually may have caused the crash remained unknown, so he could not charge anyone with the crime of massacre. Priore concluded that the plane, a DC-9 airliner of the now-defunct Itavia airlines, went down over the southern island of Ustica, near Sicily, during military activity in the area and that those indicted had tried to mislead investigators. The generals Wednesday again rejected suggestions of a cover-up, saying they were not aware of any military activity. Mystery has surrounded the crash and for years there have been two conflicting theories -- that the plane went down because of a bomb on board or was hit by a missile intended for another plane. Italian media have long suspected a military cover-up of the tragedy. Media reports based on radar monitoring data released in 1997 showed that fighter aircraft from several NATO countries were in the area on the night the plane went down. Those reports said NATO planes may have been following one or two Libyan MiGs that had apparently entered Italian air space and had tried to evade detection by flying close to the airliner. The four air force generals ordered to stand trial were accused of abuse of office for allegedly making misleading and incomplete statements during several investigations into the disaster. One of the generals, Lamberto Bartolucci, told Italian television he was happy the case was finally going to trial because the truth would clear him. Also indicted, were four members of various branches of the military secret services and the former head of an air traffic control organization. The indictment accused the generals of failing to inform the government and judicial authorities of the possibility that there had been military activity in the area where the plane crashed into the sea, killing all on board. Daria Bonfietti, a leftist senator and head of an association of families of victims of the crash, said Priore's report made it clear that "with all probability, what had caused the plane to crash was an act of war." She accused Italy's NATO allies of failing to cooperate fully with past investigations and asked them to do so now. Copyright 1999 Reuters.All rights reserved.

[CTRL] Iran Leader Says Doubters of Islam May Face Death
-Caveat Lector- Iran Leader Says Doubters of Islam May Face Death TEHRAN, Sept 1 (Reuters) - Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Wednesday that anyone questioning basic Islamic principles could face execution, after a newspaper advocated more liberal laws on capital punishment in Iran. "If anyone denies Islamic principles, including the Islamic law of retribution, then this person is an apostate and the sentence of an apostate is evident under Islam," state television quoted Khamenei as saying. Islamic laws usually require that apostates be sentenced to death. Khamenei was reacting to recent articles in the moderate daily Neshat which advocated a more liberal interpretation of Iran's Islamic laws, saying the law of retribution did not necessarily demand capital punishment. "It is a clear example of inciting unrest when a newspaper doubts Islam's fundamental principles, including the law of retribution," Khamenei added. The articles by Neshat, an outspoken newspaper backing moderate President Mohammad Khatami, have drawn heavy criticism from conservatives and hardliners who accused it of anti-Islamic propaganda. "The publication of 100 newspapers instead of 20 is not objectionable but one cannot accept that certain persons use public resources to write things against national interests with such malice," Iran's news agency IRNA quoted Khamenei as saying. He was speaking to military officials and personnel during a visit to the northeastern province of Khorasan. Dozens of new publications have been launched under greater press liberties introduced by Khatami since his election in 1997. But a number of reformist newspapers have been closed down by conservative-led courts for violating Islamic principles. Khamenei is widely seen to be close to conservatives who oppose Khatami's social and political reforms, but the supreme leader often stands above factional disputes.

[CTRL] Anglican Bishop on Warpath Over Scottish Heresy
-Caveat Lector- Note: "Heresy" is technically defined as "doctrinal error stubbornly held in defiance of ecclesiastical authority." In light of that definition, who is the heretic here? == Anglican Bishop on Warpath Over Scottish "Heresy" EDINBURGH, Sept 1 (Reuters) - A prominent Anglican archbishop said on Wednesday he was boycotting a church conference in "heretical" Scotland because of a local bishop who advocates tolerance of promiscuity and homosexuality. Moses Tay, Archbishop of Southeast Asia, wrote to Britain's Archbishop of Canterbury, George Carey, to say he would not attend the meeting of the Anglican Consultative Council in Dundee on September 14-24. Tay, from Singapore, wrote that Scotland was a "heretical" province and that Bishop Richard Holloway -- head of the Episcopal Church, the Scottish branch of Anglicanism -- held "horrendous" views. Holloway has long urged more tolerance of sexual promiscuity, including that of homosexuals, and prompted calls for his resignation recently by saying he had once tried cannabis and thought it should be decriminalised. The conflict reflects a deeper divide between more conservative, evangelical provinces, especially in Africa and Asia, and Western branches in Britain, the United States and elsewhere where church leaders are taking an increasingly liberal line on sexuality and other moral issues. Holloway, who will host the meeting, said he regretted Tay's decision but repeated a call for the diverse and decentralised church, which has 70 million followers worldwide, to put aside theological differences over issues like sexuality. "We are a warm and affectionate church and we contain among ourselves the complete range of views that characterise the Anglican family. Inclusivity and the ability not only to tolerate but to celebrate difference and disagreement are important values for us," he said in a statement. Copyright 1999 Reuters.All rights reserved.

[CTRL] D Bomb Threatens Japan
-Caveat Lector- Historically, every major stock market crash is preceeded by a huge debt bubble to go along with the stock market bubble. Japan is now approaching a historical Debt Bubble to match its Asset Bubble from the 1980's. The US is the mirror image of Japan. Lower government debt but huge personal / corporate debt. Yes, we live in interesting times. flw NY TIMES September 1, 1999 Japan as No.1? In Debt, Maybe, at the Rate Things Have Been Going By SHERYL WuDUNN and NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF TOKYO -- One of the striking paradoxes of Japan is that this is a country with the greatest savers in the industrialized world, and yet everywhere one looks there is debt. Japanese savers are famous for their ability to salt away money for the future, but as a nation, this country has some of the worst accounts in the industrialized world, and its debt trajectory increasingly looks like that of a third world country like Tanzania. Much of the public debt, which totals about $5.4 trillion, was taken on at the urging of the United States to stimulate growth. But Japan's debt situation is now so precarious that as talk of new stimulus plans heats up this fall, there are growing doubts about how long Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi can continue to spend furiously in hopes of reviving the economy. "It's like trying to adjust the fire carefully so that you don't ruin the fish," said Sadakazu Tanigaki, a Vice Minister of Finance. "The weight of the debt is extremely large. It is obvious that we can't leave the current situation as it is." The dangers are difficult to gauge, and if Japan's incipient recovery gains momentum, profits may flow in around the country and the nation's debt problems could diminish. Indeed, despite gloom-and-doom talk from some economists in the 1980's, the United States has transformed a budget deficit in those days into a surplus today, while enjoying spectacular economic growth now. So the Clinton Administration, while concerned about Tokyo's debt, has urged Japan to keep spending on the bet that doing so may revive the economy and generate the cash to pay back later. Still, Japan's debt is not only tarnishing the Government's reputation as prudent proprietor of the world's second-largest economy. It is also raising troubling questions that extend far beyond Japan. "There is no end in sight to the buildup of debt," said Vincent J. Truglia, managing director at Moody's Investors Service, which has downgraded Japan's formerly pristine credit rating, an important sign of diminished foreign confidence in its financial stamina. "We're just concerned that Japan has already entered the highest levels of debt of an industrialized country," Truglia said, "and soon will be entering unprecedented levels." Perhaps more important, rising debt levels will tend to lead to higher long-term interest rates in Japan. The effects of those higher rates may nudge up lending rates around the world, possibly threatening the economies of Asia that are trying to climb out of a financial crisis that is now two years old. Higher lending rates could also ripple across the Pacific to raise business costs in California and mortgage rates in Florida, undermining the American economy. "If Japan goes through a period of fiscal paralysis or outright crisis, then it's going to have a very negative impact on global financial stability," said David L. Asher, a specialist on Japan at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. "They've already broken a lot of world records for debt management in postwar history." The risk of a default by the Japanese Government is remote, but there are anxieties here that rising debt levels could lead to a confidence crisis, provoking a flight of capital and currency turmoil. Although Japan's troubles have not hurt America so far, a sudden shift to safe assets in the United States could send the dollar soaring in value against the yen and hurt American exports by making them more expensive. The debt is an astonishing contrast to Japan's reputation for thriftiness. Japanese citizens have amassed a pool of $6.4 trillion in household savings, which appears at least on the surface to be more than enough to pay off the debt. One major problem is that the domestic savings and foreign assets held by private citizens are exactly that: private. The debt, by contrast, is held mostly by the Government, and the Government can hardly seize the savings of private citizens to pay it off. The deterioration in Japan's finances has been amazingly rapid, a result of tax cuts and spending increases that have resulted in annual budget deficits that now amount to 10 percent of its economy -- or 13 percent, if nationalized railroad debts are included. Even the lower figure is the highest among the industrialized countries. As recently as 1992 the Japanese Government's gross debt amounted to just 70 percent of its gross domestic product, a ratio only a bit higher than that of the United States. This

[CTRL] (Fwd) More on Hillary for prez
-Caveat Lector- --- Forwarded message follows --- Filed last night at NewsMax by Carl Limbacher: http://www.newsmax.com/showinsidecover.shtml?a=1999/8/31/165 013 Tuesday August 31, 6:00 PM Federal Election Commission Lists Hillary as Presidential Candidate Some Clintonologists like Dick Morris have doubted whether Hillary Rodham Clinton will actually run for the Senate. After all, being just a senator would be a step down after serving as co-president for eight years. Newsweek had reported some years ago that White House operatives openly talked of 12 years for Clinton -- eight for Bill and four for Hillary. Such an idea would have been preposterous after Hillary's health care debacle. Since then, Hillary has had a metamorphosis of sorts. Polls even show she could run and win in New York state against a popular New York mayor, Rudy Giuliani. Just maybe, Hillary and friends are thinking once again: why not the presidency? So Inside Cover was not surprised when we clicked on the Federal Election Commission's Web site at http://www.fec.gov and typed the name "Clinton" in the search box for reports made by candidates or by committees. Both listed Hillary Clinton as a Senate candidate in New York. Both searches also indicated Hillary as a candidate for the presidency in the year 2000. Check it yourself if you don't believe us. We called the FEC and said, "What gives?" Yes, the FEC spokesperson told us, a committee was formed independently of Hillary, by a group called "People for American Leadership." One FEC form identifies the committee's treasurer as Thomas B. McMullen. The form states the group has a bank account at Crestar Bank in Washington. The FEC spokesperson said the group recently made an application to terminate the committee. Still, the listing raises some intriguing scenarios. Hillary is now a Senate candidate with plans to raise between $20 million and $30 million. She is also going through the trouble of building a campaign staff. Under federal election law, it's perfectly legal for a candidate for one federal office to change their mind and run for another federal office. Hillary could decide tomorrow to run for president, shifting her campaign war chest and putting her staff into high gear for New Hampshire. Of course, there is one little problem: Al Gore. Already Hillary and Bill have trampled on Gore's fundraising network, and she has been sapping his campaign of P.R. with her own forays into New York. Why not throw him overboard altogether? --- End of forwarded message --- Justice is incidental to law and order.

Several school districts in your state have begun using a controversial documentary film, It's Elementary: Talking About Gay Issues In School, as a training tool for their teachers, part of a growing move to incorporate 'gay and lesbian issues' into school curriculums. Both protests and praises are beginning to be heard, and it appears the issue may become a political 'hot button' very quickly. What do you plan to do? I will announce that I am in favor of such curriculum initiatives, in order to foster tolerance and prevent violence against gay and lesbian students. I will announce that I am opposed to such curriculum initiatives, especially at the elementary grade level, since children are too young to be introduced to adult concepts such as homosexuality. I will request that instead of introducing such curriculum initiatives, school districts should be required to create and enforce "no slur" policies that would teach children to respect each other regardless of any differences. I will not take any action, since this is an issue that should be decided at the local school district level, and not at the state level. None of the above.

I will announce that I am opposed to such curriculum initiatives, especially at the elementary grade level, since children are too young to be introduced to adult concepts such as homosexuality. I will request that instead of introducing such curriculum initiatives, school districts should be required to create and enforce "no slur" policies that would teach children to respect each other regardless of any differences. I will not take any action, since this is an issue that should be decided at the local school district level, and not at the state level. None of the above. Folks, This is part of the "permeation" of the homosexual agenda in our Socity.

[CTRL] d.c. thugs force u.S.taxpayers to pay our Enemy $4.5mil
-Caveat Lector- http://www.the-times.co.uk/news/pages/tim/99/09/01/timfgnfar02001.html?11240 27 September 1 1999 FAR EAST US pays $4.5m for bombing embassy FROM OLIVER AUGUST IN BEIJING RELATIONS between China and America yesterday took the first turn for the better in months when the US Government announced that it has paid $4.5 million (£2.8 million) in compensation for the bombing of the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade. The breakthrough in the compensation talks, which started in June, could pave the way for China's entry to the World Trade Organisation. A chill had descended on Sino-American relations immediately after the attack four months ago. US bombers targeted the Belgrade embassy as part of Nato's airstrike campaign against Serbia's engagement in Kosovo. Washington claimed that the bombing was accidental but Beijing said that America must have known the identity of its target. The Chinese leadership rejected America's explanation and the official media called the attack intentional. Three Chinese were killed and 27 injured when five guided missiles struck the building. A US State Department official said that the compensation was paid to "the people who were injured and the families of those killed in the mistaken bombing of the Chinese Embassy". The payment leaves two issues unresolved. China wants money to rebuild the embassy and America wants compensation for damage done to its Beijing mission during protests after the bombing. The US consul-general's home in Chengdu was burnt down in a separate attack. The State Department instructed its diplomats in Beijing to delay repairing the embassy until this month to demonstrate its fury over the stoning of the building in full view of Chinese police. The British Embassy also sustained serious damage but was renovated quietly over the summer. Moscow: Russia said yesterday that it was sending back its military envoy, General Viktor Zavarzin, to Nato headquarters in Brussels, five months after he was withdrawn in protest at Nato's airstrikes on Yugoslavia.

[CTRL] CIA 'may have poisoned ex-PM'
-Caveat Lector- Wednesday, September 1, 1999 NEW ZEALAND http://www.scmp.com/News/Asia/Article/FullText_asp_ArticleID-199909010258183 63.asp CIA 'may have poisoned ex-PM' DAVID BARBER in Wellington Former Labour prime minister Norman Kirk was remembered on the 25th anniversary of his death in office yesterday with a claim that he may have been poisoned by the CIA. The president of the Labour Party, Bob Harvey, called on Prime Minister Jenny Shipley to ask US President Bill Clinton to hand over Central Intelligence Agency files on Kirk when they met in Auckland next month. Mr Harvey said Kirk, who was 51 when he died of a heart attack, was unpopular with the Americans after telling them they could not use New Zealand as a nuclear submarine base if there was a nuclear holocaust in the northern hemisphere. Mr Harvey claimed the CIA had played a role in the removal from office of Australian Labor prime minister Gough Whitlam and Kirk "may have paid the supreme price" after challenging the US during the Cold War. He suspected he could have been poisoned by the CIA during an overseas trip before he became Prime Minister in 1972. Labour Party leader Helen Clark rejected the president's claim, saying: "I don't believe there is any substance to rumours which have circulated now for 25 years that there was some sort of foreign involvement in Mr Kirk's death." Mrs Shipley said Kirk had been loved and respected by many New Zealanders on both sides of the political spectrum. "It's bizarre and sad that the current president of the Labour Party is making such extraordinary claims on a day when we should be remembering Norm Kirk's great contribution to New Zealand," she said. Bob Tizard, a former Labour deputy prime minister, said Kirk was a big man, weighing 170kg at one time and had an enlarged heart which was diagnosed in the 1940s. He refused to slow down on becoming prime minister and died from a progressive deterioration of his medical condition. Published in the South China Morning Post. Copyright © 1999.

[CTRL] Part of the puzzle . . .?
-Caveat Lector- An excerpt from; The Puzzle Palace James Bamford1982All rights reserved ISBN 0 14 00.6748 5 Penguin Books - 6. Targets snip * * * "I consider keeping dangerous drugs out of the United States just as important as keeping armed enemy forces from landing in the United States ... We are going to fight this evil with every weapon at our command." On October 24, 1969, President Nixon designated international narcotics control a concern of U.S. foreign policy and established the White House Task Force on Heroin Suppression. Members included representatives from the White House staff, State Department, Treasury, Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs (BNDD), and the Department of Defense. Also named was DCI Richard Helms, who was instructed by the President "to contribute to the maximum extent possible." His contribution consisted of establishing an Office of Narcotics Coordinator under the agency's Deputy Directorate of Plans (now the Deputy Directorate of Operations), which provided the task force with narcotics intelligence reports and studies concerning trafficking in Turkey and Southeast Asia, as well as any European connections between Latin American traffickers and Turkish opium suppliers. A second responsibility of the office was to act as liaison with other agencies on narcotics problems. This the CIA took quite seriously, and within a short period of time the ONC was supplying the BNDD with training, was lending it "flash rolls" for overseas operations, and was providing it with sensitive intelligence reports. These included 00 Reports, compiled by the Domestic Collection Division exclusively from interviews of people who had traveled to foreign countries; analytical reports, such as one entitled "Cocaine Trafficking Network in Colombia"; and the Director of Operations Narcotics Control Reports (DONCS), which were sent directly to BNDD's chief of Strategic Intelligence. Most important, however, the CIA, probably through its Division D, also began conducting overseas interceptions specifically for the collection of international narcotics intelligence. When this activity produced information concerning the narcotics-trafficking activities of U.S. citizens, however, the local CIA officer would reportedly bow out, surrendering his information to his local BNDD counterpart, who would continue the investigation, most likely with similar, NSA-supplied eavesdropping equipment. Pleased as the Bureau was to receive the CIA's help, there was one flaw in the arrangement. The CIA was forbidden by law from conducting eavesdropping operations within the United States. This presented a major problem for the BNDD, since a large portion of the traffickers it was interested in operated, at least a large part of the time, within the United States. One particularly frustrating case involved information it had received indicating that arrangements for certain South American drug deals were being conducted by telephone from a booth in New York's Grand Central Station. Because the CIA 'Was forbidden from monitoring domestic telephone conversations and also because, under the law, BNDD felt that it could not tap public telephones, BNDD director John E. Ingersoll turned to an agency that had, from its birth, never been handicapped by such mundane considerations: the .NSA. In fact, Roy Banner, the Agency's top lawyer for many years, had secretly helped draft the wiretap legislation contained in the 1968 Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act, making sure to insert an inconspicuous loophole for NSA's operations. In a July 24, 1968, memorandum, Banner boasted of the coup, telling his director that the effect of the NSA-added exception to the act (§2511(3)) "is to remove any doubt as to the legality of the SIGINT and COMSEC activities of the Executive Branch of the Government." He then added that the language of the law "precludes an interpretation -that the prohibitions against wiretapping or electronic surveillance techniques in other laws applies to SIGINT and COMSEC activities of the Federal Government." In early April 1970 an official from BNDD journeyed up to Fort Meade and met with Deputy Director Tordella, who assured the official that NSA could handle the bureau's request to start a watch list and even fulfill its requirement for coverage of the public pay phones in Grand Central. On April 10, Director Ingersoll dispatched a memorandum to Director Gayler, thanking him for Tordella's help and attaching a general statement of his bureau Is watch list requirements. After first establishing the fact that BNDD's "primary responsibility ... is to enforce the laws and statutes relating to narcotic drugs, marihuana, depressants, stimulants, and the hallucinogenic drugs," the memorandum went on to list the bureau's requirements: 1. The BNDD has a requirement for any and all COMINT information which reflects illicit traffic in narcotics and dangerous drugs. Our primary interest falls

-Caveat Lector- is there a shorter version of this? ~ In Love and Light I Am Tim [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unconditional Love is attainable for all that quest for it. ~ -Original Message- From: Kris Millegan [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wednesday, September 01, 1999 11:53 AM Subject: [CTRL] New evidence links George Bush to Los Angeles drug operation -Caveat Lector- from: http://www.bwbadge.com/bush.htm A HREF="http://www.bwbadge.com/bush.htm"Bush linked to Los Angeles Drug Operation/A - New evidence links George Bush to Los Angeles drug operation by Edward Spannaus On Oct. 27, 1986, federal and local law enforcement officials executed search warrants on more than a dozen locations connected to a major cocaine-trafficking ring in southern California centered around Danilo Blandon.. One of the locations raided was the home of a former Laguna Beach police officer by the name of Ronald Lister. Los Angeles Sheriff's Department detectives reported that when they raided Lister's house, they found ``films of military operations in Central America, technical manuals, information on assorted military hardware and communications, and numerous documents indicating that drug money was being used to purchase military equipment for Central America.'' Documents were also found which diagrammed ``the route of drug money out of the United States, back into the United States purchasing weaponry for the Contras.'' An official report by one of the detectives from the 1986 raid stated: ``Mr. Lister ... told me he had dealings in South America and worked with the CIA and added that his friends in Washington weren't going to like what was going on. I told Mr. Lister that we were not interested in his business in South America. Mr. Lister replied that he would call Mr. Weekly of the CIA and report me.'' New evidence has now surfaced showing who some of Lister's ``friends in Washington'' were, and we shall see that these ``friends'' ran all the way up to the Office of the Vice President, at that time George Bush. Mark Richard's tell-tale notes Around the same time as the October 1986 drug raid, ``Mr. Weekly,'' whose full name is David Scott Weekly, became the subject of a federal investigation opened for the purpose of prosecuting him on federal explosives charges. According to later testimony, this investigation was under way for some time before Weekly himself first learned about it, which was on Dec. 21-22, 1986. But ten days before Weekly learned that he was being targetted, Bill Price, the U.S. Attorney in Oklahoma City handling Weekly's case, had a telephone conversation with a top official at Justice Department headquarters about some of the stickier aspects of the investigation. The official to whom Price talked was Mark Richard, a Deputy Assistant Attorney General in the Criminal Division, and the career Justice Department official who served as the Department's liaison to the intelligence agencies. The question arises: What might have triggered this conversation between Mark Richard--the DOJ's point of contact for the NSC, CIA, and military intelligence agencies--and the Oklahoma prosecutor? First of all, on Oct. 5, 1986, a C-123 cargo plane, flying from El Salvador's Ilopango military air base, had been shot down over Nicaragua. Three crewmen were killed, and the fourth, Eugene Hasenfus, was captured by the Nicaraguan Sandinistas. This was the beginning of the public unravelling of what became known as the ``Iran-Contra'' affair. Then came the Oct. 27 raid in Los Angeles, after which the Los Angeles FBI office communicated to FBI headquarters what had transpired, including Lister's claims of involvement in arming the Contras, and his citation of ``Mr. Weekly'' as being ``CIA'' and a ``DIA subcontractor''--referring to the Defense Intelligence Agency. (The FBI had already interviewed a businessman to whom Lister had bragged, on Aug. 1, that he was involved in arming the Contras, and that his arms deals were ``CIA approved.'') On Nov. 10, 1986, the FBI sent a teletype to various sections of the CIA, inquiring about Lister, Blandon, Weekly, and some others. The inquiry, over the name of the FBI Director, asked diplomatically if any of these individuals were ``of operational interest'' to the CIA. FBI documents also show that a teletype was sent to FBI headquarters on Dec. 9, followed up by a phone conversation with an FBI supervisor on Dec. 11--the same day that Mark Richard spoke to the prosecutor in Oklahoma City--who was at the time secretly preparing his case against Scott Weekly. In August 1987--less than a year later--Mark Richard was required to give testimony in the Congressional Iran-Contra investigation. While being interrogated about various matters in which there were allegations of Justice Department interference in Contra-related cases, Richard was specifically questioned about handwritten notes he had made during his Dec. 11 conversation with

Clips from a speech by Muhammad have been running on NPR in which he describes blacks as "the true Israelites..." If you look at the origins of the Nation of Islam (which Khallid Muhammad is essentially a heretical member of), it began during the '20s and '30s, at the same time as the British Israel movement was starting to meld with assorted fascist and racist groups. I wonder if there is actually a connection between Afrocentrism and British Israel/Christian Identity. The parallels in the belief structure are striking...and ominous. = Robert F.

-Caveat Lector- http://www.conservativenews.org/ViewPolitics.asp?Page=\Politics\archive\1999 08\POL19990831d.html CNS: Politics Update: 3:15 ET September 1, 1999 Union Corruption Update By National Legal and Policy Center CNS News Analysis 31 August, 1999 GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES (AFGE) Florida Boss Indicted for Embezzling $40,000 Am. Fed. of Government Employees Local 507's ex-president Diana M. Morgan was indicted Aug. 19 on federal mail fraud charges after investigators accused her of embezzling $40,000 worth of union dues for her personal use from Nov. 1996 to Jan. 1999. The indictment said the boss wrote a series of checks for $28,400 to herself and eight checks for $2,780 to her teenage daughter. She also reportedly made $1,770 in ATM withdrawals. It also said she used union funds to pay personal creditors, including her rent, a personal loan and car payments. She also reportedly bought $610 worth of Disney World tickets with a union check. As president, Morgan had full check-signing power for accounts that held dues for Local 507 in Riviera Beach, Fla. Morgan left her union post and her $28,798-a-year lab technician job at a Veterans Admin. Medical Center in Mar. Asst. U.S. Attorney Bruce Reinhart said he chose the mail fraud charge because a suitable federal embezzlement charge didn't exist. The boss was released on a $50,000 bond. [Sun-Sentinel Palm Beach Post 8/20/99] LABORERS (LIUNA) Chicago Boss and Top Cop in Business Together Ex-U.S. Marshal for Chicago, Peter J. Wilkes, partnered with a corrupt boss of the Laborers' Int'l Union of No. Am., John Serpico, in a company that was bankrolled by a loan listed in a criminal racketeering suit against Serpico. Serpico was indicted Aug. 4 for allegedly using his union muscle to get a series of illegal bank loans. He and his codefendants, Maria Busillo, the president of the Central States Joint Board, and Gilbert Cataldo, an ex-Chicago housing commissioner, pled not guilty Aug. 23 to all counts. Serpico was also named in a civil racketeering suit against the Chicago Laborers' District Council on Aug 12. In addition to the utter outrage of law enforcement working with a corrupt LIUNA boss, more troubling is the fact that the U.S. Marshals Service runs the ultra-secretive federal witness protection program, where mob informants cooperating with the government hide from their old mob associates. U.S. Marshals also transport jailed mobsters who are secretly cooperating with prosecutors. Additionally outrageous is the fact that one of this company's clients was the federal government. It ran a detention center for illegal aliens for the U.S. Immigration Naturalization Service. INS is a branch of the Department of Justice. The company, Protective Service Systems, Inc., was formed by Wilkes two months after he resigned as U.S. Marshal on Sep. 12, 1986. At the time, he was being investigated for entertaining a girlfriend on government money, basing personnel decisions on sexual favors and misuse of confiscated property. He wasn't charged. It's unclear when they became partners, but Serpico's indictment alleges the startup cash for PSSI came from an illegal loan secured by Serpico. The indictment names the company, but not Wilkes, who is referred to only as "Individual B." One of the nine loans cited in the indictment, for $195,000, was used by PSSI to buy a building to reportedly hold illegals for INS. The timing of their partnership raises questions about what, if any, connections the two had while Wilkes was still a top law enforcement official. [Chicago Sun-Times 8/16/99; Chicago Tribune 8/24/99] Indictment: Serpico also had Mob-Linked Loans The indictment also alleged that Serpico used one of the tainted loans to join with reputed organized-crime figure Paul Spano to construct a West Side apartment complex. The construction was reportedly aided by a decision by the City of Chicago to sell the land at a reduced rate. The indictment said Serpico obtained a $540,000 loan, with no collateral, to finance the project from Capitol Bank Trust Co. The complex sold last Sep. for almost $1 million. A few months after the City Council approved the sale of the site to Spano in Feb. 1989, he was indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of operating an organized crime gambling business in Cicero. He pled guilty and served seven months in federal prison. Spano is also the subject of a separate, current FBI investigation into another real estate transaction. Spano wasn't charged with Serpico. Reportedly, Serpico and a person identified as "Individual E" sought the loan in question in Dec. 1989. Records identified Spano as the sole owner of the property. Ex-Mayor Eugene Sawyer's (D) administration was actively recruiting developers for the area. Records show Spano paid $30,291 for the property and that there were no competitive bids. Records also reveal they paid only $5.50 a square foot, about half the amount paid for similar property at that time. The

-Caveat Lector- http://www.conservativenews.org/ViewDefense.asp?Page=\Defense\archive\DEF199 90831b.html CNS: Defense Update: 3:22 ET September 1, 1999 Homosexual Reservist Challenges 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' By Lawrence Morahan CNS Staff Writer 31 August, 1999 (CNSNews.com) - Under the Pentagon's "don't ask, don't tell" policy, the Army Reserve is conducting an informal investigation into the lifestyle of an Arizona state legislator who champions gay rights and makes no secret of his homosexuality. In February, Rep. Steve May, a Republican from Phoenix and a first lieutenant in the Army Reserves, denounced a bill proposed by his Republican colleague Rep. Karen Johnson that would have prohibited using public money to pay for benefits for same-sex couples. "This legislature takes my gay tax dollars, and my gay tax dollars spend the same as your straight tax dollars. If you're not going to treat me fairly, don't take my money," May is quoted in press reports as saying. May's sexual orientation has been public knowledge since he made an unsuccessful bid for the state senate three years ago. Last November he was elected to the state legislature. May's outspokenness, however, forced the Army Reserves to investigate him under the Pentagon's "don't ask, don't tell" policy. Under this policy, which was initiated by the Clinton administration in 1993 under pressure from homosexual activists, recruiters are barred from asking applicants about their sexual orientation, and commanders are forbidden to investigate suspected homosexuality unless there is significant evidence of homosexual conduct. Under the policy, homosexuals are also forbidden to disclose their orientation in a public setting. In its sixth year of operation, "don't ask, don't tell" has been criticized by recruiters and homosexual activists alike. Young recruits disillusioned with military life now can falsely claim to be homosexuals in order to be released from the service, military personnel analysts report, while homosexual activists are citing high expulsion figures as evidence of a homophobic military. Following the publication of several news articles alleging May's homosexual lifestyle, his unit, the Phoenix-based Army Reserves 348th Transportation Battalion, initiated an investigation into May, a spokesman for the Army reserves told CNSNews.com. "He was quoted in the articles as professing his open homosexuality, so the unit commander, upon learning about those news articles, was required to start an informal investigation to determine if he has committed any acts in violation of military policy. The investigation began on August 7 and is ongoing," the spokesman said. "The Army Reserve is working to handle the issue as expeditiously as possible, while ensuring the investigation is thorough and does justice to any parties involved. It's in everybody's interest to get this over and done with," he added. At a news conference held at the Log Cabin Republicans' "Liberty for All" conference in New York this weekend, May said his case "is a clear example of how absurd and ridiculous this policy has become," according to a press release by Log Cabin Republicans. May said he wasn't subject to Defense Department regulations when he was not on active duty, and had made the disclosures about his sexual orientation by the time the Army called him back during a personnel shortage precipitated by the Kosovo crisis.

[CTRL] A-Waco-ning
-Caveat Lector- From www.antiwar.com/justin/justincol,html By Justin Raimondo September 1, 1999 CRIMES OF THE EMPIRE: FROM WACO TO KOSOVO The news that the FBI has been lying all this time about what happened at Waco is not really all that shocking. Only the mainstream media and the elites believed the government's story, which is why they were content to bury the matter and forget it. After all, Koresh was a Christian nut and possibly a child-molester who had an unhealthy interest in guns: enough said, case closed. But the animus against Christianity in Washington D.C. and the New York media center is not shared by the rest of the country. Americans were skeptical, to say the least, about the official story, and the latest revelations have merely confirmed their suspicions. Not only the FBI but also the Justice Department have now been implicated in a massive cover-up. I don't normally dwell on American domestic affairs unless the subject is directly related to U.S. foreign policy, but in this case the line between domestic and international affairs has become blurred. For what the new revelations indicate is growing evidence of a direct role played by the US military in the Waco tragedy. Just as the US military was ordered to bomb the Christian Serbs back to the Stone Age and drive them out of Kosovo, so the same forces struck the Koreshian Christians on that fateful day in 1993. At Waco, the US government went to war against its own citizens.- and why should a government that targets civilians in Serbia and Iraq be any more merciful toward its own civilians? Waco and Kosovo: two fronts in the same war pitting a ruthless power-mad US government against all who dare to defy its will. A FOUR-LETTER WORD "How dare they say that this is not a free country!" Thus President Clinton, in the wake of the Oklahoma City bombing, scolded those who see the federal government as a tyranny. The only proper answer to our clueless Commander-in-chief, then and now, is a simple four-letter word that speaks volumes about the age we are living in: Waco. EMBLEM OF TYRANNY In the wake of the Oklahoma City bombing, we were not supposed to talk about Waco. Yet the memory of it not only persisted, but grew stronger, in spite of the smear campaign against anyone who dared raise the subject. In the minds of millions, the Waco massacre is emblematic of the new age we are entering, the grisly symbol of a government thoroughly corrupted and even maddened by power. FEBRUARY, 28, 1993: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY On the morning of February 28, 1993, two trailers with no markings pulled up in front of David Koresh's sanctuary, in Waco, Texas, known to the inhabitants as Mt. Carmel. Although the building was described by the authorities and a receptive media as "the Compound," in reality it was an ordinary unfortified wooden structure, not a mountain fastness or a military bunker, but a home. Within minutes, that home was under assault from more than 70 heavily armed bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (BATF) commandos. Faces obscured by ski masks, they rushed the front door, shouting and shooting. "GUILTY" OF SELF-DEFENSE The Davidians' answer to this deadly assault was to fight back, to fight for their lives and in defense of their children. When the dust cleared, four BATF agents were dead, and several others wounded. While there is considerable evidence that some of these causalities may have been caused by "friendly fire," these deaths were deemed "murder" by US Attorney General Janet Reno, and Koresh's surviving followers were put on trial. The Davidian defendants were all acquitted of the charge of conspiracy to murder federal agents: five were convicted of voluntary manslaughter, which the judge in the case defined as taking action "in the sudden heat of passion caused by adequate provocation." THE JURORS SPEAK For defending their homes and their families against a government goon squad, the convicted Davidians were sentenced to 40 years in jail. This was clearly not the intention of the jurors. As Sara L. Bain, jury foreman, put it in a letter to the judge: "Even five years is too severe a penalty for what we believed to be a minor charge." She went on to say that: "The federal government was absolutely out of control here. We spoke in the jury room about the fact that the wrong people were on trial, that it should have been the ones that planned the raid and orchestrated it and insisted on carrying out this plan who should have been on trial." Instead of being brought to justice, Larry Potts, the FBI official in charge of this murderous operation, was promoted to second-in-command of the Bureau! THE MURDERERS AMONG US The official BATF report on Waco, a shameless whitewash, is dedicated to the memory of the four BATF agents who lost their lives in the initial shoot-out. No mention is made of the Davidians who died that day. Perry

[CTRL] Clinton Hit with White House Coke Allegation (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- With Carl Limbacher and NewsMax.com Staff For the story behind the story... Wednesday September 1, 11:14 AM Clinton Hit with White House Coke Allegation At least five witnesses have given published accounts alleging knowledge of Bill Clinton's cocaine habit while he was Governor of Arkansas (see: Media Mum on Clinton Cocaine Witness List). But that was all long ago and far away, right? Not so fast. Now a new witness has apparently emerged charging that the President of the United States has coked-up right there in the White House. The explosive charge is reported in Wednesday's Investor's Business Daily: "There is also a new allegation that Clinton, who insists on keeping his medical records secret, snorted cocaine while in the White House -- specifically in the East Wing theater, where he, staffers and friends are known to regularly watch movies. "'We have it on extremely reliable authority that according to the Secret Service, the president has used cocaine in the White House theater,' said Judicial Watch Chairman Larry Klayman. 'The impression is that it [Clinton's alleged coke use] continues to this day.'" "He would not elaborate other than to say Clinton was observed allegedly snorting coke with others. Klayman's source is a new, walk-in client of Judicial Watch, a public-interest law firm suing the White House over several scandals." (See Investor's Business Daily Main News Page, click on Press' 2 Standards on Coke Issue.) Is there any other evidence of Clinton coking-up inside the White House? You be the judge. According to presidential biographer Richard Reeves, Clinton "tries to avoid heavy lifting or meetings after he has taken his allergy shots because he is so punchy; he has trouble thinking coherently." (New York Times, Nov. 3, 1996) What's in that allergy medicine, anyway? That's what onetime White House physician Dr. Burton Lee wanted to know before he was instructed to inject Clinton with a vial of the stuff in 1993. Here's how NewsMax.com covered the incident last October: "There have been substantial questions raised about the true nature of those injections. The New York Post's Andrea Peyser reported in September 1996 that during the first week of Clinton's presidency an unusual package with an Arkansas postmark turned up in the regular White House mail. It contained a vial of 'mystery serum,' as Peyser described it, labeled as allergy medicine. White House physician Burton Lee was instructed by Clinton's appointments secretary, Nancy Hernreich, to inject the president with its contents. "But the world-renowned Lee refused to do so. He told Peyser that the vial was inadequately labeled and that, in any event, he would not inject the president with anything without first checking Clinton's medical records. "Lee was told that Clinton's Arkansas doctor, Susan Santa Cruz, had his medical file. But when he called Santa Cruz she told him she would have to check with Hillary Clinton first before she could release the records to Lee. Lee expected that Santa Cruz would do just that, and that Hillary would quickly order her husband's file released to him. "He was wrong. Just one hour after his phone call to Santa Cruz, Burton Lee was fired from the Clinton White House. An unnamed Army doctor relieved Lee and apparently injected Clinton with the 'mystery serum' without checking his medical file. Lee told Andrea Peyser, 'There isn't any doubt in my mind that the person who fired me was Hillary.'" Then there's Monica Lewinsky, who knows a thing or two about the President's personal habits. She reportedly told Linda Tripp that Clinton sometimes seemed to "zone out" on her. "I think he's on drugs," concluded the White House intern, after many hours of up close and intimate contact with the alleged First Cokehead.

[CTRL] Trick or Trade
-Caveat Lector- From http://www.nationalpost.com/commentary.asp?f=990831/67261 E-Mail-able Tuesday, August 31, 1999 Global rules could paralyze us Maude Barlow National Post The dominant development model of our time is economic globalization, a system fuelled by the belief that a single global economy with universal rules set by global corporations and financial markets is inevitable. Everything is for sale, even those areas of life once considered sacred. Increasingly, these services and resources are controlled by a handful of transnational corporations that shape national and international law to suit their interests. At the heart of this transformation is an all-out assault on virtually every public sphere of life, including the democratic underpinning of our legal systems. The most important tool in this assault has been the creation of international trade agreements whose tribunals and enforcement measures supersede the legal systems of nation-states and supplant their judicial processes by setting up independent dispute resolution systems that exist outside the confines of their courts and their laws. For instance, the North American Free Trade Agreement gave American corporations Chapter 11, the first "investor state clause" in any international agreement. For the first time, a corporation can sue a foreign government if that government enacts any law, practice or measure that negatively affects the company's profits or reputation, even if that law, practice or measure has been enacted by a democratic legislature for legitimate environmental, social, health or safety reasons. There are several active Chapter 11 cases now in process. The first was lodged by Ethyl Corp. of Virginia, when Canada legislated a ban on the cross-border sale of MMT -- which Jean Chretien, the Prime Minister, called a dangerous neurotoxin -- and Ethyl sued the Canadian government for $350-million in damages for lost future profit. Rather than allow the case to go to a NAFTA panel where it feared it would lose, the Canadian government reversed its ban in July, 1998, paid Ethyl $20-million in compensation for its "trouble," and gave the company a letter of apology containing a statement that there is no scientific evidence MMT poses a threat to human health or the environment. The first NAFTA Chapter 11 case on water was filed in the fall of 1998. Sun Belt Water Inc. of Santa Barbara, Calif., is suing the Canadian government because the company lost a contract to export water to California when the government of British Columbia banned the export of bulk water in 1991. Although Sun Belt's agreement was with a Canadian company, Snowcap, and not the B.C. government, Sun Belt alleges the ban contravenes NAFTA and is seeking $400-million in damages. The corporation understands NAFTA gives it the right to shape Canadian government policy. "Because of NAFTA, we are now stakeholders in the national water policy in Canada," declared Jack Lindsay, its chief executive. The other major global institution that is swiping national legal jurisdictions is the World Trade Organization. The WTO enforces a number of international trade agreements on goods, services, intellectual property rights, food safety, animal and plant health, financial services, food, agriculture policy, investment, technology and telecommunications. What makes the WTO so powerful is that it has both the legislative and judicial authority to challenge laws, policies and programs of countries that do not conform to WTO rules and strike them down if they are seen to be too "trade restrictive." Cases are decided -- in secret -- by a panel of three trade bureaucrats. Once a WTO ruling is made, worldwide conformity is required. A country is obligated to harmonize its laws or face the prospect of perpetual trade sanctions or fines. The WTO, which contains no minimum standards to protect the environment, labour rights, social programs or cultural diversity, has already been used to strike down a number of key nation-state environmental, food safety and human rights laws. Recently, U.S. laws to protect endangered Asian sea turtles from shrimp nets and dolphins from drift nets have been successfully challenged at the WTO. All WTO agreements set out detailed rules intended to constrain the extent to which governments can regulate international trade, or otherwise "interfere" with the activities of large corporations. WTO agreements provide extensive lists of things governments can't do. Says U.S.-based Public Citizen, "The emerging case law indicates that the WTO keeps raising the bar against environmental laws." Renato Ruggiero, the former WTO secretary-general, has admitted environmental standards in the WTO are "doomed to fail and could only damage the global trading system." Another WTO official was quoted in the Financial Times in April, 1998, saying, "The WTO is the place where

Atheists meeting every Sunday * Resources * About this list... ATHEIST MOM LOSES ROUND IN CASE AGAINST BOY SCOUTS Nancy Powell Challenged BSA Recruiting In Portland Schools A County Circuit Judge has ruled that the Boy Scouts of American may continue to recruit students in Oregon public schools despite the fact that the group discriminates against atheists, gays and others. Portland Atheist Nancy Powell sued the school district and the Oregon Department of Education in May, 1998, arguing that officials should not allow a discriminatory group to use the public schools for membership recruiting purposes and promoting religion. Multnomah County Circuit Judge Joseph F. Ceniceros, however, ruled that BSA was not primarily a religious group despite the requirement that prospective scouts swear an oath affirming belief in a god. Associated Press noted, "The case is being watch nationally because it threatens the close ties between the Scouts and public schools." Powell complained to education officials in 1997, when her children were enrolled at Harvey Scott Elementary School in Northeast Portland. Her son, Remington, was in class on two occasions when local Boy Scouts of America recruiters showed up, and placed bracelets on youngsters and encouraged them to attend local meetings. In a letter to the Superintendent of Public Education, Oregon Department of Education, Powell noted that teachers distributed promotional flyers for the BSA, and that the Scouts "willingly admit their own discriminatory qualifications for joining and every Cub Scout through Eagle Scout must sign a 'Declaration of Religious Principles' which states: "The Boy Scouts of America maintains that no member can grow into the best kind of citizen without recognizing an obligation to God and, therefore, recognizes the religious element in the training of the individual..." "No mother should ever again be put in the position of telling her sobbing 6-year-old son on the steps of his own school that 'our kind,' nonbelievers in the supernatural, are not welcome to join the group that solicited our membership," added Powell. Powell mustered a substantial body of evidence exposing the discriminatory and religious agenda of the BSA. This included statements from the Scouts that it "recognizes the importance of religious faith and duty," and that "Leadership is restricted to qualified adults who subscribe to the Declaration of Religious Principle, the Scout Oath, and the Scout Law." Judge Ceniceros, however, opined that the BSA was not primarily a religious group. "I conclude that the religious aspect of scouting is a very small part of its programs," he wrote in his decision. "I also conclude that under any criteria or test that I am aware of the Boy Scouts are not a religious organization." Neither side contested the facts of the case -- that the school district permitted Boy Scout recruiters on school property during school hours to promote the "private" organization. Ceniceros did not deal with the issue of whether or not the BSA was a "public accommodation," which could have placed the group under the control of anti-discrimination laws. "I am aware of cases throughout the country in which the BSA have earnestly contended that they are a religious organization," said Ceniceros in a brief statement. "In all these cases it was claimed that the BSA were a place of public accommodation and subject to the various State Public Accommodation laws. However, the law which applies to establishment cases is clearly different from that which applies to public accommodation cases and what is a religious organization under one set of laws is not under another. These cases are troubling but not persuasive..." Ceniceros added that the denial of membership "to boys and scoutmasters who do not acknowledge the existence of God." was "the most disturbing aspect of this case." He noted, though, that "for purposes of the establishment clause, this denial of membership does not seem to matter." Reacting to the decision, Nancy Powell told Associated Press, "I do not relish having to tell him (her son) that when he goes back to school next week, he may at times be exposed to an organization that condemns
[CTRL] [FAIR-L] ALERT: U.S. Role Missing From East Timor Coverage
-Caveat Lector- FAIR-L Fairness Accuracy in Reporting Media analysis, critiques and news reports ACTION ALERT: U.S. ROLE MISSING FROM EAST TIMOR COVERAGE September 1, 1999 The ongoing story of East Timor's referendum on independence has received a moderate amount of coverage in the mainstream media. But news outlets have frequently failed to put the Timor story in a full and accurate context. For example, in reports from East Timor's capital, the Associated Press and some other news outlets continue to use the dateline "Dili, Indonesia," implying that Indonesia has a legitimate claim over East Timor. This formulation is comparable to a dateline of "Kuwait City, Iraq" in the months following Iraq's illegal annexation of Kuwait. The Washington Post (8/31/99) reported that Timorese were voting on "whether to remain a part of Indonesia." More importantly, many stories fail to note two crucial facts about East Timor's nearly 25-year struggle against Indonesian occupation. First, the Indonesian occupation has been extraordinarily bloody, resulting in the deaths of more than 200,000 Timorese, out of a pre-invasion population of approximately 600,000. A recent AP story noted that an "estimated 2,000 Indonesian troops have died fighting separatist guerrillas since Indonesia invaded East Timor in 1975," but failed to note the massive numbers of Timorese who have perished. Others seemed to confuse the deaths caused by the occupation with those caused by the resistance movement. ABC News' Charles Gibson said that "It's been an extraordinary violent independence movement there with hundreds of thousands of people killed" (Good Morning America, 8/31/99). Secondly, news consumers are not informed that the U.S. backed Indonesia's invasion of East Timor. President Gerald Ford and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger visited the Indonesian capital of Jakarta in December 1975, just before the invasion was launched, where they were told of Suharto's plans to attack the island (Washington Post, 11/9/79). The following month, a State Department official told a major Australian newspaper (The Australian, 1/22/76) that "in terms of the bilateral relations between the U.S. and Indonesia, we are more or less condoning the incursion into East Timor... The United States wants to keep its relations with Indonesia close and friendly. We regard Indonesia as a friendly, non-aligned nation--a nation we do a lot of business with." Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who was then the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations wrote in his memoirs (A Dangerous Place) that "the Department of State desired that the United Nations prove utterly ineffective in whatever measures it undertook" to reverse the invasion. "This task was given to me and I carried it forward with no inconsiderable success," Moynihan reported. Finally, according to the State Department, 90 percent of the weapons used in the invasion came from the United States. Two years later, as the atrocities in East Timor were reaching a peak, President Jimmy Carter authorized an addition $112 million in weapons sales to Indonesia. ACTION: Please call on local and national news outlets to stop treating East Timor as a legitimate part of Indonesia. And ask them to include the facts about the consequences of the Indonesian invasion, as well as the role the U.S. has played in supporting the illegal occupation.

Executive Summary Over the past 20 years Congress has encouraged the U.S. military to supply intelligence, equipment, and training to civilian police. That encouragement has spawned a culture of paramilitarism in American law enforcement. The 1980s and 1990s have seen marked changes in the number of state and local paramilitary units, in their mission and deployment, and in their tactical armament. According to a recent academic survey, nearly 90 percent of the police departments surveyed in cities with populations over 50,000 had paramilitary units, as did 70 percent of the departments surveyed in communities with populations under 50,000. The Pentagon has been equipping those units with M-16s, armored personnel carriers, and grenade launchers. The police paramilitary units also conduct training exercises with active duty Army Rangers and Navy SEALs. State and local police departments are increasingly accepting the military as a model for their behavior and outlook. The sharing of training and technology is producing a shared mindset. The problem is that the mindset of the soldier is simply not appropriate for the civilian police officer. Police officers confront not an enemy but individuals who are protected by the Bill of Rights. Confusing the police function with the military function can lead to dangerous and unintended consequencessuch as unnecessary shootings and killings.

[CTRL] Going Postal and Beyond: Part I
-Caveat Lector- "Going Postal" and Beyond: Part I Dynamics Triggering Workplace Violence In the wake of the Atlanta day trading shootings, a mental health professional emailed about dealing with the aftereffects. As I was mulling over the question, I had to place cause before effect. Memories were stirred of stress and critical incident consulting work with the US Postal Service and other federal agencies and corporations. And before jumping to conclusions, some of the specific "Postal" incidents (e.g., the first two on the list) involved postal employees being robbed and attacked by non-postal aggressors: 1) a carrier on a delivery route held up at knife point, 2) a female warehouse worker raped in an employee parking lot, 3) a supervisor receiving telephone death threats (perhaps involving a jealous triangle with the boyfriend of an another employee), and 4) a postal employee, a former Green Beret, making threats in his psychiatrist's office to kill two fellow workers for being "slackers." Another critical incident intervention was with bereaved private sector staff after an employee who, under the influence of alcohol and depressed over the breakup of an unhappy relationship, wound up driving her car into a tree, killing herself instantaneously. And then there was a "blue collar" government division in a white collar world, castoff by their agency as part of a lean-and-mean restructuring. The group was relegated to the basement of a huge federal agency, drifting, marking time, not sure where and when (or if) they would permanently wash up. Not surprisingly, during this period of uncertain survival all were on edge. Racial tensions flared: some white employees pulled up KKK websites; some black employees on cassettes played speeches of Louis Farrakhan. Grievance procedures were escalating. A manager in the Diversity Office finally realized that the government was hemorrhaging money in this administrative Armageddon. Was human blood next? Three Key Hazardous Workplace Issues Some questions must be reckoned with: a) are there incidence-prone work environments?, b) is there a violence-prone personality profile? and c) the steps managers and all employees can take to reduce the numbers of violent incidents. As a means for engaging with the first issue and aspects of the other two, let me grapple with the most frequently asked question when people discover my critical incident specialist background: Why is there so much violence in the postal service?(I was a postal stress and violence prevention consultant from the early to the mid-90s.) Actually, I don't know if statistically there is more violence in the US Postal Service than in other large companies or federal agencies. Most folks don't realize that the Postal Service, apart from the Defense Department as a whole, is the largest employer in the United States (if not the world). As of a couple of years ago, there were about 800,000 postal employees. In light of the numbers, periodic incidents of violence are not that surprising. Also, because almost all US residents use and depend on the USPS, I suspect there's a greater sense of personal identity (if not perceived vulnerability) with postal shootings. Still, with these conditions and caveats in mind, what are critical factors that contribute to a hazardous, occasionally lethal, work environment for postal employees? And while focusing on a predisposition for "going postal," none should be smug. A number of these dynamics exist in a myriad of work settings. Top Ten Postal Pressure Points 1. Fishbowl Pressure. To insure the protection and privacy of the mail, many postal employees are frequently being watched through above the workfloor viewing stations, two-way mirrors, etc. Not surprisingly, this kind of surveillance can induce its own brand of suspiciousness. Initially, in my rounds as a stress consultant, people were reluctant to talk with me. They assumed I was a postal inspector or a narcotics agent. 2. Mail Mania. You have to be in "the belly of the beast," that is, on the workfloor of a huge Postal Processing and Distribution Plant, to appreciate the fact that the mail and handling the mail NEVER STOPS! It's a 24-7 operation and the time- and task-driven nature of the business inevitably creates stress. Not surprisingly, for some folks, such as yours truly, the midnight shift is a never-ending nightmare. Believe me, holding testy 3am management-supervisor meetings, dealing with racial tension or helping to defuse a volatile manager, supervisor or employee took a toll. I developed high blood pressure. Perhaps one night a week from 9pm-6am precluded ever adapting. But I think some people are just biorhythmically out of kilter working when the sun don't shine. And I believe the data overall indicates greater numbers of medical problems and even somewhat shorter life spans from years toiling on the "graveyard shift." Is there a message here? 3.
Re: [CTRL] SEND FISHES [CTRL] Geraldo on Drug War 26AUG MSNBC
-Caveat Lector- Listers: I remain committed to this notion, Geraldo Rivera's show not withstanding as probably very good -- something ELSE is happening in the so-called "drug war" -- something totally alien. DRUGS are most probably a cover-up here. You need to consider other possibilities. What I believe we have is a frequency-SEND war, and quite literally creatures from the deep in this thing that emit pleasing or nasty frequency "sends." People use these SENDS to get good treatments -- from doctors, dentists, mechanics, etc. And the people who need to use these sends are people often involved with Intel. Because these people ARE implanted, and they need special security measures around them and special ways to protect themselves. Other people (such as the elderly) may use these send fish and their obcessive frequencies/drugs, to obtain things like mates.This has got to be true in some measure. The world may turn on these clandestine drugs and "send fishes." Cults know and use them to create emotional ties with those they are co-opting, Intel knows and uses 'em, probably mainly for protections. Drug lords make a LOT Of money on marketing these things. These weird send-fishes, creatures, may also have highly unusual drugs -- curative ones even. But I mean this very very sincerely, and from relevant personal experience. We are NOT dealing with a drug war in the conventional sense, NO. We are not dealing with prostitution either in the conventional sense. We are dealing with frequency SEX, and new drugs -- yes. This I believe. But this is not plain and simply a narcotics drug war. No. It is not. NO. The DRUG WAR is a cover-up for something VERY different indeed.

According to the article, the idea originated at a Los Angeles dinner party given by conservative columnist Arianna Huffington for Ted Halstead, who wrote a recent Atlantic Monthly article on how Generation Xers are opting out of political and civic involvement. Beatty and his wife, actress Annette Bening, were among the attendees, and Bening suggested that Halstead enter politics. Halstead responded that the one with the interest and the verve was Beatty, and that topic dominated the conversation for the rest of the evening. Huffington is actively promoting a Beatty candidacy, for reasons that aren't at all clear. And Bening seems to have warmed to the idea. A platform is developing, with campaign finance reform the centerpiece. Apparently the focus is on a run for the Democratic Party nomination, not an independent candidacy.

Near Dak To Province, RVN, 19 November 1967 Story From January of 1998: FDA Orders Pentagon To Follow FDA Vaccine Rules Pentagon Broke Rules In Giving Soldiers Vaccine 8 * Indicates posthumous award === ARTICLE 1 ~ DUMBING DOWN THE ARMY ~ By David H. Hackworth, 31 August 1999 The Army wants our youth. But unfortunately for the "Green Machine," not enough of our youth want the Army! Despite more than a quarter-billion-dollar annual recruiting budget, 6,000 top NCO and officer recruiters (who are mainly combat leaders) and more than 3,000 staff weenies who man the 46 recruiting headquarters-more than enough talent to cadre three tank divisions --our all-volunteer Army isn't mustering enough recruits to fill the squads. These factors are part of the problem: · A booming economy, which makes tooling down Mainstreet USA in a new set of wheels more attractive than playing RoboCop in one of Clinton's global villages. · College fun and games over close order drill and war games in the rain. · Too many harebrained missions such as Kosovo that are stretching our forces to the breaking point and causing the troops to ask, "Why go to the Balkans to be shot at for nothing?" · Relatives and friends who because of a recent bad military trip or broken promises, such as reduced medical, hospital and other retirement benefits, are telling young people, "Don't join up. You'll just get used and abused like I did." · Generation Y-ers without the same patriotic fever or motivation that their fathers and grandfathers mustered when they faced the Imperial Japanese, Nazi Germany or Cold War communists who, in their time, were all major threats to our security. · And senior brass -- both politicians and military leaders -- who talk a good game of caring for the troops, but rarely put their efforts or money where their mouths are. Few, for example, have challenged the poor pay and near-ghetto housing, the silly missions or the kinder, gentler Clinton administration policies which have wreaked havoc on the vital warrior ethic. The brass is pulling out their hair on this one. From long experience, they know that regardless of how high-tech their weapons are, without skilled and motivated warriors the best weapons in the world are worthless. Many solutions are being kicked around. Unfortunately, most have to do with "dumbing down" the Army by further lowering standards instead of smart moves like immediately fixing the pay, cleaning up the lousy living conditions and taking the teen-age summer camp out of basic training. Secretary of the Army Louis Caldera has proposed accepting more high-school dropouts. Caldera, a West Point graduate, should eyeball the lessons of Vietnam. During that cruel war, Project 100,000 was implemented to produce more grunts for the killing fields of Vietnam. It took unfit recruits -- classified as Category IVs -- from the bottom of the barrel and rushed them to Vietnam. The result was human applesauce. Cat IVs sustained the highest casualties of any group and caused such massive discipline problems -- fraggings, drug use, racial strife -- that by 1973 the Army had been virtually brought to its knees. Ten smart-and-fit soldiers are better than 100 out-of-shape dummies. From a decade of combat experience as a soldier and war reporter, I'm convinced that the brighter the soldier, the higher his chances of making it through the nightmare of combat. Fort Gordon, Ga., recently put out a memo that said, "Keep in mind that the objective is to graduate and ship the soldier to the field. â¦It is not illegal or immoral to give the soldier the benefit of the doubt (on a PT test)." Meaning if the soldiers don't pass, look the other way and move 'em out. We're back to the quantity over quality system that produced Lt. William Calley of My Lai shame and filled so many body bags in Vietnam. The Army should follow the Marines' example and push for higher standards -- not lower. The Corps continues to make its boot training tougher, and the

-Caveat Lector- VOICE Of The GRUNT Anthrax, 1999-09-01-B == ARTICLE 6 ~~ IT'S A PLANT THAT PRODUCES NOTHING BUT CONTROVERSY ~~ SUMMARY: We received this piece several weeks ago and have been waiting for some good complimentary pieces to join it. Another good anthrax commentary. ** By A Motivated Warrior I'm sure you are aware of the action taken by DOD several weeks ago. No press reports that I've seen fully explore some baseline issues, although the NY Times piece on Friday came close. This company did not exist until just over a year ago. It has never produced ANY product, much less had a DOD contract before. Unlike established DOD contractors with a large industrial base (General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, etc.) Bioport is basically a paper entity with a negative balance sheet that happens to own a vaccine plant that it neither built nor which it has ever used to produce vaccine since the purchase. Bioport entered into a contract with DOD and failed to fulfill the terms of the contract. It should have been found in breach of the contract and had the contract revoked. Since the Michigan plant is Bioport's only asset, the company would then go bankrupt, and be forced to sell the plant to pay off its debts. That is what is supposed to happen in a capitalist economy. Undoubtedly, more competently managed companies -- presumably with some expertise in the manufacture of vaccines (unlike Bioport) -- would have stepped in to take over the plant. Instead of allowing the marketplace work to eliminate an incompetently managed company, DOD stepped in to save it. Why? Despite DOD's assertions about the mandates of "national defense" justifying its actions, it should be clear that this action preserves the 22% ownership stake in Bioport held by a former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, ADM Crowe, and the 32% held by key Bioport employees (who were former state employees). The investigation of the sale of Bioport by the State of Michigan legislature found serious ethical violations by two key state employees who currently work for Bioport, one as COO. Additionally, the presence of ADM Crowe as a Bioport board member was likely a significant advantage in the sale of the plant to Bioport. He was given 1/5th ownership in the company despite zero investment, business experience, or vaccine/medical background. The more than doubling of the contract price and especially the advance of $18M to Bioport stinks of gross ethical lapses by DOD. For that money Bioport should have gone bankrupt and DOD could have taken over the plant -- or paid to have it run by a real pharmaceutical company. Instead, DOD acted to preserve the investment of the only senior military officer to endorse Bill Clinton in 1992 and his politically well-connected friend and Bioport CEO, Fuad al-Hibri. I hope you explore this situation further. === ARTICLE 7 ~ ***Medal Of Honor*** ~ *WATTERS, CHARLES JOSEPH Rank and organization: Chaplain (Maj.), USA, Co. A, 173rd Supp. Bn, 173rd ABN Bgd.

Chaplain Watters distinguished himself during an assault in the vicinity of Dak To. Chaplain Watters was moving with one of the companies when it engaged a heavily armed enemy battalion. As the battle raged and the casualties mounted, Chaplain Watters, with complete disregard for his safety, rushed forward to the line of contact. Unarmed and completely exposed, he moved among, as well as in front of the advancing troops, giving aid to the wounded, assisting in their evacuation, giving words of encouragement, and administering the last rites to the dying. When a wounded paratrooper was standing in shock in front of the assaulting forces, Chaplain Watters ran forward, picked the man up on his shoulders and carried him to safety. As the troopers battled to the first enemy entrenchment, Chaplain Watters ran through the intense enemy fire to the front of the entrenchment to aid a fallen comrade.

-Caveat Lector- ARTICLE 4 A CONTROVERSIAL VACCINE PROGRAM SUMMARY: A Reserve USAF NCO writes about his concerns for the Anthrax program. By An Air Force SNCO Our troops need to hear more information on the Anthrax Vaccine Immunization Program that is being forced upon them. Interestingly, the State Department changed their Anthrax vaccination program from mandatory to voluntary, in May 99. If Madeleine Albright and Strobe Talbot don't have to get the shots forced on them, why do our troops? This controversial vaccine program has weakened our Reserve Force. Lots of well trained, motivated troops have already opted out of the service. The long-term safety of this vaccine has many wondering what their health will be like five or ten years down the road. Problem is, there has been no long term testing of this vaccine, and even though the DOD says it has been safely giving this shot to veterinarians across the country for years, if you try to find a veterinarian who has received this shot, you will come up empty. The vaccine manufacturer has been cited for purity and quality control problems, contaminated lots of the vaccine, and if you ever read the FDA reports on the Vaccine manufacturer, Michigan Biologic, Lansing, Michigan, you would be appalled. The vaccine manufacturer has given a special deal. They are exonerated from lawsuits against them, due to adverse reactions from shot recipients. There are about 50 different adverse reactions to this vaccine according to the FDA'S own adverse reaction reporting system. Some of the heaviest reactions, or biggies include meningitis, lymphoma, and Hodgkin's Disease. Lots of GI's have gotten sick from this shot and on 29 June 99 CBS's Dan Rather aired a segment on the news about the horrors of this Vaccination Program. People from the GAO have testified in congressional hearings that this Anthrax vaccination Program should be stopped because of the fact that this Vaccine doesn't have any kind of track record over the long haul. Those who submit to taking this vaccination are "rolling the bones," with their health. There are US Congressman who have called for an end to this program, they want this insanity stopped. If the threat of Anthrax from Saddam Hussein is real, then the Pentagon has saved the Iraqis millions of dollars in research and development. They know which type of Anthrax we have vaccinated against, and if we ever meet them face to face on the battlefield, you can bet that they will throw the other strain of Anthrax against our troops. You know, the one we didn't vaccinate against! Force protection doesn't apply here if the enemy has other weapons systems that they will surely use against us. Inoculating all 2.5 million Active duty and Reservists with this "witches brew" will cost the taxpayers $130 Million Dollars. Write your congressmen, or call and ask him to defund the Anthrax Program. This is a waste of the taxpayers money, and it is tearing our Military apart, and making many sick. Remember the Atomic testing our troops endured years ago, Agent Orange, and the hallucinogenic drugs our troops were given as part of an experiment? The Anthrax vaccine could quite possibly be categorized with some other things that did more harm than good to our American men and women in Uniform. Without long term testing of this vaccine in human beings, it is a DOD Policy that needs cease and desist. = ARTICLE 5 ~ IS THERE HANKY-PANKY BEHIND MANDATORY VACCINES? ~ SUMMARY: Here's an article from last week that should really get your attention. Remember what my advice was with regard to the "Swell Mattel"? Always follow the money. Whenever you feel like a fire-hose is being jammed down your throat, it's usually to distract you from the guy picking your pocket. ** By Phyllis Schlafly, August 25, 1999, The Eagle Forum After parents whose children had been severely damaged from vaccines attended a couple of congressional hearings, we might have thought Bill Clinton's response would have been, "I feel your pain." Not on your life. The Clinton Administration instead floated plans to gut the federal trust fund that compensates the families of children who are injured or killed by reactions to vaccines. Surgeon General David Satcher told a House committee this month that Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala might recommend that a large portion of the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program's $1.4 billion trust be turned over to vaccine research. That would be a cruel betrayal of the parents who financed this trust fund by a 75 cents per dose assessment on vaccines and were promised compensation from it in

MICAH SIFRY DOUG IRELAND, NATION: [Pat] Buchanan is only millimeters away from announcing his bid to take over the Reform Party. What's more, Minnesota Governor Ventura and his people, who oppose making Buchanan the Reform standard-bearer, are completely unprepared to deny him the nomination Ross Perot himself is quietly supporting Buchanan's Reform candidacy. A strait-laced lifestyle conservative who is also thin-skinned and vindictive, Perot detests the flamboyant Ventura, both for his feather-boa-wearing and pot-smoking past and for his public criticisms of the tiny Texan. Perot sees the Buchanan candidacy as the perfect way to give the Minnesota governor his comeuppance According to sources familiar with Buchanan's thinking, Pitchfork Pat sees three key constituencies that, added to social and religious conservatives, will make up his "new coalition" for the third-party effort: Perot independents, Buchanan Democrats and old-line, Meany-style trade unionists. To cement that coalition, Buchanan wants to have as his reform VP candidate a labor Democrat with anticommunist and protectionist views.

[CTRL] 7 Unsustainable Process
-Caveat Lector- From This is only the first part. At the site are the nifty charts and remainder of the paper. AER Seven Unsustainable Processes Medium-Term Prospects and Policies for the United States and the World Wynne Godley The U.S. economy has now been expanding for nearly eight years, the budget is in surplus, and inflation and unemployment have both fallen substantially. In February the Council of Economic Advisers (1999) forecast that GDP could grow by 2.0 to 2.4 percent between now and the year 2005, and this forecast has since been revised upwards (Office of Management and Budget 1999). Many people share the CEA's optimistic views. For instance, in his New Year message (Financial Times, December 29, 1998) Alan Blinder compared the United States's economy to one of its mighty rivers--it would "just keep rolling along"; and President Bill Clinton concluded his Economic Report of the President with the words "There are no limits to the world we can create, together, in the century to come." This paper takes issue with these optimistic views, although it recognizes that the U.S. economy may well enjoy another good year or two. During the last seven years a persistently restrictive fiscal policy has coincided with sluggish net export demand, so rapid growth could come about only as a result of a spectacular rise in private expenditure relative to income. This rise has driven the private sector into financial deficit on an unprecedented scale. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) is projecting a rise in the budget surplus through the next 10 years, conditional on growth's continuing at a rate fast enough to keep unemployment roughly constant, and this implies that it is government policy to tighten its restrictive fiscal stance even further (Congressional Budget Office 1999a, 1999c). At the same time, the prospects for net export demand remain unfavorable. But these negative forces cannot forever be more than offset by increasingly extravagant private spending, creating an ever-rising excess of expenditure over income. If spending were to stop rising relative to income without there being either a fiscal relaxation or a sharp recovery in net exports, the impetus that has driven the expansion so far would evaporate and output would not grow fast enough to stop unemployment from rising. If, as seems likely, private expenditure at some stage reverts to its normal relationship with income, there will be, given present fiscal plans, a severe and unusually protracted recession with a large rise in unemployment. It should be added that, because its momentum has become so dependent on rising private borrowing, the real economy of the United States is at the mercy of the stock market to an unusual extent. A crash would probably have a much larger effect on output and employment now than in the past. A long period of stagnation in the United States, still more recession, would have grave implications for the rest of the world, which seems to be depending, rather irresponsibly, on the United States to go on acting as spender of last resort indefinitely. This paper makes no short-term forecast. Bubbles and booms often continue much longer than anyone can believe possible and there could well be a further year or more of robust expansion. The perspective taken here is strategic in the sense that it is only concerned with developments over the next 5 to 15 years as a whole. Any recommendations regarding policy do not have the character of "fine-tuning" in response to short-term disturbances. They ask, rather, whether the present stance of either fiscal or trade policy is structurally appropriate looking to the medium- and long-term future. A sustained period of stagnation or recession, through its adverse effect on the national income, could drive the budget back into deficit without there being any relaxation of policy, yet to counteract an endemic recession, it will be necessary to relax fiscal policy, making any emerging deficit even larger. Further relaxation of monetary policy could not sustain the expansion, except temporarily and perversely by giving a new lease on life to the stock market boom. While a relaxation in the stance of fiscal policy will ultimately have to be made, this by itself will not be enough to generate balanced growth in the medium term because, as matters stand, this would be accompanied by a continuing rise in the United States's external deficit and indebtedness. There is probably no way in which sustained and balanced growth can be achieved in the medium term except through coordinated fiscal expansion worldwide. The difference between the consensus view and that put forward here could not exist without a profound difference in the view of how the economy works. So far as the author can observe, the underlying theoretical perspective of the optimists, whether they realize it or not, sees all
[CTRL] Central Asia Looks To Old Master Russia
-Caveat Lector- STRATFOR.COM Global Intelligence Update Weekly GIU September 1, 1999 Central Asia Looks To Old Master Russia Summary: Kyrgyzstan has asked Russia for help in fighting Islamic guerrillas who are holding approximately 20 hostages near the Tajikistan border. By asking for assistance, the Central Asian republic is effectively signaling the failure to provide regional security. Most significant of all, this is a region where the U.S. has been actively cultivating military allies. Analysis: The Kyrgyz defense ministry on August 31 requested Russian military help with fighting Islamic rebels in the south. Kyrgyz Deputy Prime Minister Boris Silayev and Defense Minister Esen Topoyev met Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin in Moscow to ask for Russia's assistance. Putin agreed to provide Kyrgyzstan with military and technical support, but ruled out deployment of Russian troops. Russian Defense Minister Igor Sergeyev said August 31 that he would consider supplying weapons and ammunition, according to ITAR-TASS and other reports. Kyrgyzstan has asked Russia for direct military support as well as technical assistance. Specifically, authorities in the capital Tashkent have asked for communications, night vision goggles and weapons. Kyrgyz forces appear ill prepared for this struggle Its anti-terrorist unit has been demobilized and some reports in the region indicate that the rebels are better equipped and better trained. Kyrgyzstan is a full member of the Commonwealth of Independent States Security Council, having recently renewed its membership in the alliance with Russia, Belarus, Armenia, Tajikistan, and Kazakhstan. The fighting began last week after mostly Uzbek Islamic rebels crossed the Tajik-Kyrgyz border, seizing four villages and taking more than 20 hostages. Four hostages have been released. The rebels' intentions are unclear, as they have not declared their demands. About 500 to 1,000 rebels are believed to be hiding in the mountainous region surrounding the villages. In their efforts to deal with the crisis, officials from defense and foreign ministries of Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan met in Osh, Kyrgyzstan, on August 30. They signed a joint declaration of intent to prevent terrorism by using the most severe measures allowed by international law. Still, their efforts so far seem uncoordinated. On the same day, Uzbekistan launched bombing attacks in southern Kyrgyzstan, accidentally killing three civilians. Kyrgyzstan responded by saying the air attack has not been authorized and it would demand compensation from Uzbekistan. The confusion appears to have prompted Tashkent's plea to Russia. Over the past year, Russia has offered little military hardware to help battle the region's border disputes. Only 130 Russian border troops are believed to remain in Kyrgyzstan. Authorities dealt with previous hostage incidents, in July and August, by paying ransoms. Failures to deal with Islamic groups, primarily the "Islamic Revival Movement of Uzbekistan," have led President Akayev to reappoint two defense ministers in two weeks. The incident has become a profound embarrassment to the local military. Maj. Gen. Anarbek Shankeyev was one of the first hostages taken and guerrillas later abducted 17 reconnaissance troops. The U.S. military has tried hard to cultivate ties with local militaries in an effort to displace Russia as the more influential power. Troops of the 82nd Airborne Division have held exercises with local forces and Special Forces have trained Central Asian troops in an effort to build up talent for joint operations, primarily peacekeeping. Most recently, officers from the region journeyed to MacDill Air Force Base, Florida to practice command and control of their forces. While local troops are considered adequate, Central Asian units generally need better technology. Russia is positioning itself to take advantage of the outbreak of violence in the region. Coordination between Russia and its eastern neighbors in the struggle against Islamic extremism was one of the main issues on President Boris Yeltsin's agenda at the "Shanghai Five" summit. The joint declaration from the summit said that all the parties recognized the importance of fighting terrorists, separatists, and religious fanatics. Ultimately, Russia appears to be interested in reasserting influence to develop relations with Central Asia's southeastern neighbor, China. Three high-profile meetings last week confirmed that the two countries are reinforcing their strategic partnership [ http://www.stratfor.com/CIS/commentary/c9908240015.htm ]. Russian President Boris Yeltsin and his Chinese counterpart Jiang Zemin discussed closer cooperation. China is privately concerned that Central Asian unrest is feeding separatist rebels in Xinjiang province. Russian military assistance to Kyrgyzstan may, in fact, be Moscow's first serious favor to Beijing.

[CTRL] Racism as Mental Illness
-Caveat Lector- http://abcnews.go.com/sections/living/InYourHead/allinyourhead.html Are Racists Ill or Evil? Psychiatrist Says Hatred Obscures Mental Health Problem Some mental health professionals think that extreme racists have psychological disorders. Some, for instance, might have delusions that all members of a particular racial group are out to get them. (A.Shepherd/ ABCNEWS.com) By Claudine Chamberlain ABCNEWS.com During the civil rights era of the 1960s, a group of black psychiatrists was so disturbed by racially motivated killings and other acts of violence that they sought to have extreme racism classified as a diagnosable mental illness. The American Psychiatric Association turned them down. But now one of those psychiatrists, Harvards Dr. Alvin Poussaint, says its time to reconsider that decision. Weve had a series of racially motivated killings now Buford Furrow in Los Angeles, Benjamin Nathaniel Smith in the Midwest, the dragging death in Texas, Poussaint says. All of these men were suffering from severe delusions about minorities. But because those delusions were racist delusions, he argues, the men didnt get the psychiatric help they needed, even though delusional disorder is a clearly identifiable mental illness. Instead of being seen as ill, the attackers were seen as evil and untreatable. Diagnosis, Treatment, Prevention Thats my peeve, Poussaint says. If we want to do any kind of prevention, psychiatrists have to know and believe themselves that this is a serious mental disorder. To that end, he says, extreme racism should be listed as an official type of delusional disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the index that mental health professionals use in diagnosing patients. Poussaint set forth his argument in a recent editorial in The New York Times. Treatment would likely be the same as other types of delusional disorders intensive talk therapy to help the patient understand that all African Americans (or Jews or Hispanics) arent out to get them, and possibly anti-psychotic medication if the delusions are quite severe. No one argues with the goal of preventing racism. Whether to approach it as a mental health problem, well, thats a bit more controversial. Two Conditions or One? While its certainly possible for someone to be alarmingly racist and mentally ill, the racism alone doesnt make a person mentally ill, says Dr. Daniel Borenstein, president-elect of the American Psychiatric Association and a professor at the University of California Los Angeles. Racism per se is, I think, an extreme of a very common thing in humans, and that is prejudice, Borenstein says. Some of the ways in which it manifests itself can be disturbing, but prejudice is a normal human tendency. If someone has a delusional disorder that makes it more likely that theyll act out on those racist feelings in a violent way, he says, that disorder should be easy enough to diagnose as a separate problem. It would be wonderful if we could somehow decrease racism by making it a diagnosis, Borenstein says. But the diagnostic nomenclature isnt set up to cure social problems; its set up to diagnose and treat mental illness. Poussaint says he understands the argument that prejudice is a common human condition. Hes not recommending a trip to the shrinks office for anyone whos ever told an off-color joke, or any white woman whos ever held her purse a little closer when a black man walked by. But he is saying that mental health professionals should be on the lookout for patients whose racist thoughts include threats of violence or fantasies of vast conspiracies. Racists Are Bad Characters People argue that its just hatred, but the hatred is part of a delusion, he says. Its a circular argument. Julia Ramos Grenier, a Connecticut psychologist who helps police departments evaluate mentally unstable suspects, says its important to distinguish a character flaw from a mental illness. She thinks racism is a character flaw. A lot of people in this world go around having negative thoughts about other people, she says. But they dont necessarily break the law because of it. An important part of her work is determining how dangerous someone is, and for that she considers not so much the ideologies they spout, but other factors, such as whether they have anti-social tendencies, whether they feel rules and laws apply to them, whether theyve been violent in the past and whether they have access to guns. While those things are important, Poussaint says its also crucial to recognize delusional racism early on. If you do, and you can help the person overcome it, you may just prevent the next day-care shooting or deadly rampage. A lot of people in this world go around having negative thoughts about other people. But they dont necessarily break the law because of it.

-Caveat Lector- To: undisclosed-recipients:; Subject: [piml] ..BREAKING MAJOR -on DRUDGE - WACO ..Justice Grabs Tapes of conversation between agents giving OK to use gas...The AP is reporting that marshals took custody of infrared tapes recorded during the early morning of April 19 when incendiary tear gas canisters were lobbed at a concrete bunker adjacent to the Davidians' compound... MORE... SHOWDOWN: FURIOUS RENO ORDERS FBI EVIDENCE SEIZED! Marshals Impound FBI Waco Evidence By Michelle Mittelstadt Associated Press Writer Wednesday, September 1, 1999; 9:42 p.m. EDT WASHINGTON (AP) -- Federal marshals were dispatched Wednesday to the FBI's headquarters to impound previously undisclosed evidence in the 1993 assault by federal agents on the Branch Davidian compound, Justice and FBI officials said Wednesday night. The marshals took custody of infrared tapes recorded during the early morning of April 19 when incendiary tear gas canisters were lobbed at a concrete bunker adjacent to the Davidians' compound near Waco, Texas, an FBI source said, speaking on condition of anonymity. Hours later, the wooden compound erupted into flames. Cult leader David Koresh and some 80 followers died during the inferno. Justice Department officials dispatched the marshals to the FBI building less than a block away after the FBI informed them it had uncovered in its files additional information about the tear gas. Department sources said Attorney General Janet Reno and her top aides were angered at the latest turn of events. Just a week ago, the FBI was forced to recant six years of denials that it had used incendiary tear gas during the final hours of the 51-day siege. That belated admission prompted a furor on Capitol Hill, where congressional Republicans are readying hearings for the fall. A frustrated Reno also ordered an investigation to determine why combustible tear gas was used against her orders. The FBI source said the new material, found in the offices of the FBI's Hostage Rescue Team in Quantico, Va., was turned up as part of FBI Director Louis Freeh's mandate that all files be searched for relevant information in advance of the investigation. The Hostage Rescue Team was in charge of the FBI's operation during the siege and the final tear-gas assault. After the evidence was found, it was transferred to FBI headquarters in Washington, where the marshals took possession. ``Earlier this afternoon, senior main Justice Department officials learned from the FBI that the FBI had found additional materials in its possession regarding the shooting of military CS gas rounds on the morning of April 19,'' said Justice spokesman Myron Marlin. The Justice officials ``immediately directed the United States Marshals Service to take possession and inventory the materials,'' Marlin added. The FBI concurred, said bureau spokesman John Collingwood. ``We are anxious to identify and preserve for outside review and congressional oversight anything that may bear on the firing of the military gas rounds,'' Collingwood said. ``In the end, the only way we can completely restore our credibility is to identify every scrap of information we have and immediately turn it over to whomever is doing the review.'' It appeared increasingly likely Wednesday that Reno will order an independent inquiry, sidestepping the investigative resources of the FBI. Joining a chorus of voices on and off Capitol Hill, the White House has made clear its preference for an independent investigation, a White House official said Wednesday. ``We would support a thorough and independent look at this,'' said the official, who asked not to be identified. Freeh, who wants to head off any perception of conflict of interest, earlier this week indicated support for an inquiry free of involvement from the FBI or the Justice Department. Reno, who is out of the country on official business through Thursday, has not reached a final decision, Marlin said. Justice sources, however, described Reno as leaning strongly in favor of an independent investigation and forgoing the use of a team of 40 FBI agents that had been assembled to re-interview all of the participants in the FBI operation. The government's conclusion that the 1993 fire was set by Davidian cult members has long been doubted by conspiracy theorists and others who allege the government engaged in a widespread cover-up. The FBI and Reno have said there is no evidence to suggest the blaze was set by the incendiary tear gas canisters. After insisting that only non-flammable devices were used, the FBI said last week that a ``very limited number'' of combustible canisters were lobbed at a concrete bunker 40 yards from the compound a few hours before the fire erupted. The House Judiciary Committee is drafting legislation to establish a congressional commission to investigate the matter -- a step that in Chairman Henry Hyde's view could avoid the partisanship exhibited during earlier Waco hearings.

[CTRL] Team arrives in Rwanda to probe alleged UN inaction during genocide
-Caveat Lector- Team arrives in Rwanda to probe alleged UN inaction during genocide KIGALI, Sept 1 (AFP) - Three independent investigators arrived in Rwanda on Wendesday to probe allegations that the United Nations did nothing to halt the 1994 slaughter of up to 800,000 people. It is the first time the team, comprising Swedish former prime minister Ingvar Carlsson, South Korean former foreign minister Han Sung-Joo and Nigerian General Rufus Kupolati, have set foot on Rwandan soil to investigate the claims made by families of the genocide victims. They will specifically investigate the role played by Secretary General Kofi Annan, who at the time of the killings was head of the UN peacekeeping operations. During their three-day stay in Rwanda, the team will meet various Rwandan officials, survivors of the genocide and journalists. Annan finally agreed to the investigation in January. Until now the team has pursued its enquiries at UN headquarters in New York. Upon arrival in Kigali, Carlsson said he and his colleagues had accepted Annan's request for an enquiry "on the condition we are fully independent." "We have full access toward materials" including cables sent from here to the UN secretariat, and from the secretariat to the UN Security Council, he added. Canadian General Romeo Dallaire, who was head of the UN peacekeeping force in Rwanda at the time, said UN officials failed to respond to his warnings of preparations for genocide. Annan has blamed the Security Council for inaction. "We will look at the responsibility (of) member countries of the UN," Carlsson said. The Swede explained the mission's two objectives: "First to give all the facts on how this terrible genocide could happen, how the international community could have let it happen, why they didn't react in a stronger or quicker way. "The second objective is to draw conclusions for the future in order that hopefully this will never happen again." Carlsson said the investigation has three phases. The first involved inspection of all relevant materials, including those in the UN archives. The second, now under way, began with a two-day international seminar in Geneva with experts, reseachers, book authors and non-governmental organisations. "We continue now in the region," he said. Carlsson said the team would spend three days in Rwanda before travelling to Uganda and Tanzania. Washington, Paris and Brussels are among other possible destinations, he added. "The third phase is to present to the Secretary General before the end of this year, a report with our conclusions about what could have been done, if we failed and why, and what should be done in the future," he said. Two parliamentary commissions, in Belgium in December 1997 and France in December 1998, cited errors made by the United Nations in the management of the crisis. -- --- NOTE: In accordance with Title 17 U.S.C. section 107, this material is distributed without profit or payment to those who have expressed a prior interest in receiving this information for non-profit research and educational purposes only.

-Caveat Lector- X DRUDGE REPORT X WED, SEPT 01, 1999 21:51:22 ET X FURIOUS RENO ORDERS FBI EVIDENCE SEIZED! A furious Janet Reno ordered federal marshals to the headquarters of the FBI to impound new, previously undisclosed evidence relating to the 1993 Branch Davidian assault near Waco, Texas. As she returned from Panama late Wednesday night, Attorney General Reno expressed total anger over the development while aboard the plane, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned from one eyewitness. "Her face was flushed, she was clearly shaken," the eyewitness told the DRUDGE REPORT. Washington was rocked Wednesday night just hours after federal marshals took custody of infrared tapes recorded during the early morning of April 19 when incendiary tear gas canisters were lobbed at a concrete bunker adjacent to the Branch Davidians' compound. The tapes capture conversation between agents giving the OK to use gas on the compound. The recording contains the voices of agents asking for and receiving authorization from their operational commanders at Waco. The new material, found in the offices of the FBI's Hostage Rescue Team in Quantico, Va. on Wednesday, was transferred to FBI headquarters in Washington -- where it was seized. FBI Director Louis Freeh's has issued a mandate that all FBI files be searched for relevant information on Waco. "The recording is on the audio track of an infrared videotape that picked up heat images from inside the compound," the NEW YORK TIMES is rushing in a Thursday Page One lead, according to publishing sources. The tape was made by an aircraft flying over the site at the time the tear-gas canisters were launched at the bunker, according to the report. MORE... RENO MAY NAME FORMER REPUBLICAN SENATOR TO HEAD NEW PROBE Former Republican senators John Danforth of Missouri and Warren Rudman of New Hampshire are said to be on Reno's short list of candidates to head a new probe into the events surrounding Waco, the NEW YORK TIMES is reporting.

MORE JUDGE TO IGNORE JUSTICE DEPT An unnamed federal court official in Waco tells Thursday's ATLANTA JOURNAL CONSTITUTION that U.S. District Judge Walter Smith Jr. has no intention on holding a hearing on the Justice Department's motion that questions Smith's authority to gain possession of all evidence pertaining to Waco and an ongoing civil lawsuit.

[CTRL] Is Russia Planning Mideast Attack? Joseph Farah
-Caveat Lector- http://www.worldnetdaily.com/bluesky_btl/19990901_xcbtl_is_russia_.shtml Is Russia planning Mideast attack? By Joseph Farah, World Net Daily, Wed Sept 1 1999 Joseph de Courcy, editor of the well-respected journal Intelligence Digest reports this week: "While NATO congratulates itself on bombing the Serbs into submission, Israel's Mossad and other Middle Eastern intelligence sources have discovered that Kosovo was one humiliation too many for Russia. Now Moscow has agreed to back Saddam's secret plan of revenge. With this all-important Russian backing, Saddam is joining with hated Iran and Syria to launch one final war against Israel. Amazingly, Saddam will allow Iranian troops to cross Iraqi territory to join the attack on Israel. And to keep America from interfering, Moscow has given Osama bin Laden and other terrorists the means to attack American population centers with weapons of mass destruction. The threat is real ... and the implications terrifying. ..." These are not the rantings of some self-proclaimed geo-strategic analyst. Joseph de Courcy is one of the most well-respected intelligence journalists in the world. His report is nothing short of shocking. Yet it confirms and supports the research being done by WorldNetDaily's J.R. Nyquist, author of "Origins of the Fourth World War." I believe, based on trends obvious to anyone capable of picking up a daily newspaper today (online or off) that there is an excellent chance Russia and/or China may embark on a major military adventure before 2001. Why? There is almost no chance America will be weaker militarily than it is right now during the remainder of the Clinton administration. We've hit rock bottom -- deliberately, because of the conscious policies of a president who is un-American to the core and who would sell out the memory of his own dead mother if he thought there were an opportunity for even momentary political gain. Unless some equally unpatriotic, characterless leader hell-bent on national suicide is selected to be commander in chief, the military is bound to at least recover some ground lost during the last seven years. Jane's Air Defense reports next month that a mock battle between U.S. Air Force fighters and Israeli Defense Forces aircraft resulted in a one-sided rout. More than 200 U.S. planes were lost in the simulation while the Israeli pilots lost about 20. The Israelis are good, but they're not THAT good. U.S. military standards have plummeted in the politically correct Clinton years. Nevertheless, while there are fewer resources for materiel, ammunition, strategic weapons and training, there has been a tenfold increase in the demand for deployments during this era in which the U.S. military has been redefined as the police force of the world. Yeah, if there were ever an opportunity to surprise the U.S. when its defenses are down, this is it. Not since Pearl Harbor has America been less prepared for existing threats. The Russians and the Chinese are not stupid. They can clearly see that they may never have a better chance than they have right now to strike a decisive blow to the United States -- a knockout punch from which we may never recover. Any such designs would almost certainly include an adventure into the Middle East so that the oil fields could be secured, thus effectively shoring up sagging industrial economies for the long term and depriving what remains of the West from any hope of recovery. You could argue, as some have, that China's best chance has not yet come. It is still emerging as a world economic and military power, they say. Its best days are ahead, say the optimists. Maybe so, but China's economic development has not been nearly as dramatic as some had projected. And it is deeply frustrated by talk of Taiwan

[1] FCC Grants FBI Surveillance Standards Request
===
In a decision released on August 31, the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) largely adopted technical standards proposed by the
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) that would re-design the
nation's telecommunications networks to facilitate electronic
surveillance. The ruling could result in a significant increase in
government interception of digital communications. Included is a
requirement that cellular telephone networks must provide police the
ability to track the physical location of cell phone users.
The FCC decision involves the Communications Assistance for Law
Enforcement Act (CALEA), a controversial law enacted by Congress in
1994, which requires the telecommunications industry to design its
systems in compliance with FBI technical specifications. In
negotiations over the last few years, the FBI and industry
representatives were unable to agree upon those standards, resulting
in the current proceeding before the Commission. EPIC opposed the
enactment of CALEA in 1994 and has participated as a party in the FCC
proceeding, arguing that many of the FBI standards go beyond the scope
of the legislation and threaten communications privacy.
Another standard approved by the FCC would allow police investigators
to listen in on phone conversations of all parties to a conference
call, even if some were put on hold and were no longer talking to the
target of the authorized surveillance. The standards would also enable
police to determine when someone is using call-forwarding, three-way
calling or other features.
On an issue of potentially great significance to the Internet, the
Commission directed that "packet-mode communications" be made available
to law enforcement no later than September 2001. Such communications
can contain both voice and data. Noting the privacy problems raised by
this requirement, the FCC requested the telecom industry to "study
CALEA solutions for packet-mode technology" that will "better address
privacy concerns" and report back in one year.
EPIC is reviewing the full text of the decision and may challenge the
FCC action in federal court.

decision, is available at:

[2] Administration Proposes Secret Break-ins to Combat Crypto
===
A new Clinton Administration proposal could result in an unprecedented
intrusion into the sanctity of private homes and businesses. The White
House plan would enable federal and local law enforcement agents to
secretly break into private premises and alter computer equipment to
collect e-mail messages and other electronic information.
As first disclosed on August 20, the administration is circulating
draft legislation known as the Cyberspace Electronic Security Act
(CESA), the latest White House effort to address the growing use of
encryption technology. As described in an August 4 analysis of the
legislation obtained by EPIC, the proposal would amend current law to
authorize "the alteration of hardware or software that allows plaintext
to be obtained even if attempts were made to protect it through
encryption." Courts would, for the first time, be able to approve

Re: [CTRL] D Bomb Threatens Japan
-Caveat Lector- And the Numismatic Beast rages and roars, its eyes rolling wildly, tongue a'loll, mouth foaming copiously and dripping; in preparation for the greatest feast of its life. Even now, in the capitols and television stations its minions shuffle and scurry about, confused, programmed to do its bidding through maneuverings of its very existance. So the Beast continues to rage, bending the bars of its cage, awaiting that first high-pitched squeal signalling a crack in the metal of its prison gate. Then shall it emerge and no desert magic, which has vainly attempted to harness the power of this beast, will be able to control it then. The beast hungers. It has not fed for quite some time. But it ALWAYS feeds. Always. flw wrote: -Caveat Lector- Historically, every major stock market crash is preceeded by a huge debt bubble to go along with the stock market bubble. Japan is now approaching a historical Debt Bubble to match its Asset Bubble from the 1980's. The US is the mirror image of Japan. Lower government debt but huge personal / corporate debt. Yes, we live in interesting times. flw NY TIMES September 1, 1999 Japan as No.1? In Debt, Maybe, at the Rate Things Have Been Going By SHERYL WuDUNN and NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF TOKYO -- One of the striking paradoxes of Japan is that this is a country with the greatest savers in the industrialized world, and yet everywhere one looks there is debt. Japanese savers are famous for their ability to salt away money for the future, but as a nation, this country has some of the worst accounts in the industrialized world, and its debt trajectory increasingly looks like that of a third world country like Tanzania. Much of the public debt, which totals about $5.4 trillion, was taken on at the urging of the United States to stimulate growth. But Japan's debt situation is now so precarious that as talk of new stimulus plans heats up this fall, there are growing doubts about how long Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi can continue to spend furiously in hopes of reviving the economy. "It's like trying to adjust the fire carefully so that you don't ruin the fish," said Sadakazu Tanigaki, a Vice Minister of Finance. "The weight of the debt is extremely large. It is obvious that we can't leave the current situation as it is." The dangers are difficult to gauge, and if Japan's incipient recovery gains momentum, profits may flow in around the country and the nation's debt problems could diminish. Indeed, despite gloom-and-doom talk from some economists in the 1980's, the United States has transformed a budget deficit in those days into a surplus today, while enjoying spectacular economic growth now. So the Clinton Administration, while concerned about Tokyo's debt, has urged Japan to keep spending on the bet that doing so may revive the economy and generate the cash to pay back later. Still, Japan's debt is not only tarnishing the Government's reputation as prudent proprietor of the world's second-largest economy. It is also raising troubling questions that extend far beyond Japan. "There is no end in sight to the buildup of debt," said Vincent J. Truglia, managing director at Moody's Investors Service, which has downgraded Japan's formerly pristine credit rating, an important sign of diminished foreign confidence in its financial stamina. "We're just concerned that Japan has already entered the highest levels of debt of an industrialized country," Truglia said, "and soon will be entering unprecedented levels." Perhaps more important, rising debt levels will tend to lead to higher long-term interest rates in Japan. The effects of those higher rates may nudge up lending rates around the world, possibly threatening the economies of Asia that are trying to climb out of a financial crisis that is now two years old. Higher lending rates could also ripple across the Pacific to raise business costs in California and mortgage rates in Florida, undermining the American economy. "If Japan goes through a period of fiscal paralysis or outright crisis, then it's going to have a very negative impact on global financial stability," said David L. Asher, a specialist on Japan at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. "They've already broken a lot of world records for debt management in postwar history." The risk of a default by the Japanese Government is remote, but there are anxieties here that rising debt levels could lead to a confidence crisis, provoking a flight of capital and currency turmoil. Although Japan's troubles have not hurt America so far, a sudden shift to safe assets in the United States could send the dollar soaring in value against the yen and hurt American exports by making them more expensive. The debt is an astonishing contrast to Japan's reputation for thriftiness. Japanese citizens have amassed a pool of $6.4 trillion in household savings, which appears at least on the

The Nuclear Installations Inspectorate (NII) is taking the threat of the "9/9/99" bug sufficiently seriously to have asked all nuclear operators to prepare contingency plans. A Health and Safety Executive spokesman said that in order to prove that they can shut reactors down safely in an emergency, nuclear operators have to take the date into consideration as part of their safety assessments, without which they are not allowed to operate. "We don't think the 9/9/99 bug is widespread but nevertheless it is being taken seriously around the world as a potential date for trouble," the spokesman said. The fresh concerns about millennium-type problems came on the day that the Global Positioning System - a network of 24 navigation satellites controlled by computer chips - resets its date to zero. The "roll over" of the GPS occurs every 1,024 weeks - about once every 20 years - and was due to take place at midnight last night, potentially causing problems for anyone with a hand-held receiver, such as hikers, sailors and light-aircraft pilots. Although the NII did not issue any warnings about the GPS rollover, it has taken the potential risks of computer failure due to the 9/9/99 bug more seriously. Tony Stock, the Operations Director of Action 2000, the government task force set up to deal with millennium bug issues, said the 9 September bug stems from a historic accident when computer files were processed according to date, with the earlier dates being dealt with first. To ensure that any totalling of the records was done last, programmers inserted the "nonsense" date of 99/99/99, which was guaranteed to be later than anything else in the computer files. "This, we believe, has been misconstrued as 9/9/99, a real date rather than the dummy value. Our assessment and the US government's assessment is that we don't anticipate any major problems," Mr Stock said. Just two authenticated examples of the 9/9/99 bug have so far emerged: one in test equipment used by the rail industry to monitor vibration in tracks, and one in a piece of medical equipment, which did not endanger patients. Some computer users see the bug as a test for the millennium bug proper at the end of the year. Businessmen were yesterday warned they could face legal action if they fail to take precautions against the millennium bug. Don Cruickshank, chairman of the government's Action 2000 bug watchdog, told firms they could be liable if it prevents them from fulfilling a contract or if their faulty systems disrupt another company. Millennium bug damage is unlikely to be covered by insurance as it is a foreseeable event.

From what I read, Arizonia is an interesting place. Having been looking into Skull and Bones for many year, please let me point out the few inacuracies in your fine piece. It is William Hunington Russell not Harrison. The Russel Trust Association wasn't formed until 1856. Richard(Dick) Bissel is not a member. He went to Yale and is the member of one of the other senior secret societies there, which one escapes my noodle at the moment. The Russell and Company flag was officially not the Skull and Crossbones and I have seen no printed reports in the opium trade books to suggest so. Their flag was blue and white and was two opposing blue triangles and two opposing white trianles to form and X on its side. Check out the Opium Clippers by Basil Lubbock(1933) W. H.

-Caveat Lector- - Original Message - From: Hilary A. Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] Rupert Sheldrake, scientist turned outcast, is convinced there is only one explanation: dogs know when their owners are coming home; they know 'cause they are telepathic. http://newscientist.com/ns/19990828/imthinking.html I spoke with Sheldrake once when I was selling some of his books. He's a very pleasant person and his theory of morphogentic fields is intriguing. I'm not surprised that he is talking about telepathy. He's apparently been talking about telepathy for some time now. Talking about telepathy is east [but why should a telepath need to talk?]; demonstrating telepathy is a bit more difficult, eh? Except when the conspiracy of telepathy debunkers are working...

Re: [CTRL] [InTheShadows] Skeptic News - Wednesday #1
-Caveat Lector- - Original Message - From: Hilary A. Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] # 'French Paradox' a health myth. BARCELONA (UPI) The so-called "French Paradox" a lower incidence of heart disease despite typical Western risk factors for disease might just be an error, stemming from a fluke in health reporting. Many more French men die from alcohol-related causes before they have the opportunity to die of heart disease. Merde: http://news.excite.com/news/u/990830/16/health-heart-paradox We tend to think of the French diet as the rich meals consumed in Paris. Having lived in Paris I can attest to the fact that the food there can be very rich and um-um good. However, the subjects in this study came from more rural areas with a more balanced diet - if my memory servers me - which it usually doesn't. Naw, the diet usually considered typically French/Mediterranean is the grain, fruit/veggie, sausage, olive oil, wine combo - but when ya factor-in chain-smoking cognac-guzzling, it's a bit deadlier... Many cultures will show low heart-disease rates, just because they promote behaviors that kill before heart disease has time to develop. This doesn't mean that the diets/behaviors common to those cultures are healthy, just that they skew the statistics. DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
