Re: [CTRL] MP child rapist

2000-10-28 Thread Ynr Chyldz Wyld

-Caveat Lector-

From: "nessie" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 I'm offended that someone would show so little respect for the harmonious
 cohesion of this often valuable resource we share.  Are you being
 disruptive on purpose, or don't you realize what you're doing?

I found nothing disrespectful nor disruptive in the original post.


 When people come in hear and act disruptive, anything I do in response is
 not an attack, it's a defense. This happens fairly often. We're trying to
 accomplish something here. You're disrupting our effort. Why?

What is disruptive in sending a verbatim news article?


 But what's the  connection here? Why bring up recovered memory? Is this MP
 case a recovered memory case?

Since the alleged victims are only just now remembering the alleged incidents, it 
would seem to possibly be a
case of recovered memory...


 The wording was quoted verbatim from the article.

 So what? It doesn't matter where it came from. It matters where it ended
 up. Why did you post it in its entirety? A summation would have sufficed.

I beg to differ.  I'd much rather read the article myself, than have it filtered 
through someone's subjected
summation...


 Even warning posted over a blank screen would have been polite. That way
 people who wanted to read it could have paged down to it. That way people
 who open the post without knowing what was in it would be spared, if they
 chose, from having to look at it.

The subject heading was pretty clear regarding what the subject matter was 
about...what did you expect to
find, Mother Goose rhymes?


 But not everyone here feels as I do. Some people wish to limit what they
 see. Would it hurt so much to be a little polite to them?

Yes, because you are asking us to selectively censor postings.  Almost anything posted 
on this list can
potentially offend someone else...so where do we draw the line?


 It's a small
 thing. Show a little respect. You're in their home, often in their
 bedroom. That's their turf. You're a guest. Show respect for the local
 customs.

We are not in their homes.  Rather we all are leaving our homes and entering a 
semi-public 'club' set up by
the list owner.  In 'real life', if one doesn't like the atmosphere of a club then one 
shouldn't patronize
that establishment...but one doesn't have the right to enter such an establishment and 
demand that the patrons
alter either their behavior or their speech to suit the offended person.

Your argument reminds me of an acquaintance who once complained about some cable 
channel broadcasting the
Paris Lido show...the broadcast always occured during the wee hours of the morning, 
but my friend got all
upset over the idea of children seeing the skimpily-clad showgirls...

My friend's own child never saw it...no, what had her upset was the fact that she had 
learned that her
neighbors watched the show, and that often-times the neighbors' child would wake up in 
the middle of the night
and come join his parents while they were watching this broadcast...

So this person wanted the show off the air because she thought it was terrible that 
this neighbor's child
occasionally saw the show...

And she couldn't understand it when I pointed out that this was a cable channel...one 
had to PAY to receive
it, it wasn't available via general broadcast -- so it was the CHOICE of these 
neighbors of hers to pay for
the channel that broadcast this show, just as it was the choice of my friend NOT to 
pay for that channel.  It
was also the neighbor's choice to stay up late and tune in that particular channel.  
It was also their choice
to allow their son to wake up and come out and join them while they watched the show, 
rather than sending him
back to bed.

It is all a matter of CHOICE.  If one doesn't like the subject matter on either the 
channel or the email list,
one has the choice not to watch/read.  One also has the choice not to even receive it, 
if it offends them so
much.

But don't go taking away the CHOICE of the rest of us to be able to read anything...


 Otherwise, you will drive some of these people off of this list and out of
 my life and I will be very angry about it because I value access to what
 they bring to to the list.

Quite frankly, most of the ones who are complaining the loudest have rarely 
contributed much of value to this
list...


 Do not drive them away by flaunting things you know will alienate them

How was the person who sent the article to the list to know that it would 'alienate' 
the lily-livered whiners?


 Choice is the issue here. If some of the people on this list want a choice
 as to whether or not to have stuff like that in their face, we ought to
 give them the choice. You ought to give them the choice.

And yet you are actually arguing for the taking away of that right.  A subject heading 
of "MP child rapist"
should have suggested to you all that what was too follow wasn't an ode to Christopher 
Robin...

This man is being drawn back into government by Ehud Brug aka

most now refer to him as "the fat slob", for evidently he has eaten too
many of his own burgers from his big rich cattle farm.

SHARON, Ariel

Ariel Sharon, whose original name is Sheinerman, was born in Kfar Malal
on a moshav (agrarian community) in 1928.

Very active in the Haganah (Jewish self-defence organization) in his
early youth, he was a platoon commander during the first Arab-Israeli
war. In 1952-53, he attended the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in
History and Oriental studies. In 1953, he founded and led Unit 101, an
élite unit dedicated to leading retaliatory strikes against the
Palestinian fedayeen attacking Israel from Gaza and the West Bank.

During the 1956 war, he served as commander of a parachute brigade. His
breach of discipline during this war angered the army command, and his
advancement in the army ranks was suspended for years. In 1957-58, he
studied at Camberley Staff College in the United Kingdom.

During the years 1958-62, he i.a. served as commander of an infantry
brigade and studied law at Tel-Aviv University. In 1962, he became
Commander of the IDF armoured brigades. He was then appointed Head of
Northern Command Staff in 1964 and Head of Southern Command Staff in
1969. Considering his chances slim of being appointed Chief of Staff,

Sharon resigned from the army in June 1972 but was recalled to military
service in the 1973 war.

In December 1973, he was elected to the Knesset on the Likud lists
although he had no strong party affiliations. In 1974, he resigned his
seat and left Likud to become, from 1975 to 1977, Prime Minister Yitzhak
Rabin's special security adviser.

In 1976, he formed a new party, Shlomzion, which gained two seats in the
1977 elections. This party disappeared shortly afterwards when Sharon
joined Likud again and entered Menahem Begin's government as Minister of
Agriculture and Chairman of the Ministerial Committee for Settlements
until 1981. Although he has never been religious, he supported the Gush
Emunim movement and was thus viewed as the patron of the messianic
settlers movement.

He used his position to encourage the establishment of a dense network
of Israeli settlements in the Occupied Territories and contested the
possibility of return of these territories under Arab sovereignty.

Minister of Defence in the second Begin government in 1981, he
masterminded Israel's invasion of Lebanon in June 1982. Under the
findings of an official Commission of Inquiry (the Kahan Commission), he
was held responsible for the massacres perpetrated in the Palestinian
camps of Sabra and Shatila in September 1982. He resigned from his post
in 1983 but remained Minister without portofolio until 1984.

In the national unity government of 1984, Shimon Peres appointed him
Minister of Trade and Industry. He served in this capacity until May
1990. He then became Minister of Construction and Housing until Likud's
electoral defeat of 1992. In the Knesset, he was member of the Foreign
Affairs and Defence committee from 1990 to 1992 and Chairman of the
committee overseeing Jewish immigration from USSR.

In 1996, he was appointed Minister of National Infrastructure in
Benjamin Netanyahu's government - a post especially created for him -
and on October 9th 1998, Minister for Foreign Affairs. His appointment
placated right-wingers crucial to Netanyahu's coalition (see Israel,
Elections and Parliament). Sharon - known to be one of the more hawkish
in his party - has always proposed radical schemes for "solving the
Palestinian problem" like the annexation of most of the West Bank.

Sharon is seen, like Rabin and Ehud Barak, as a military hero. Over all
his career, he has nurtured a large right-wing populist support base. He
is considered as a man who has no limits and uses power ruthlessly. He
occupies a property in Jerusalem's Muslim Quarter and is Israel's
wealthiest cattle farmer.

Following the resignation of Mr. Netanyahu as leader of the Likud after
his failure in the elections of 17 May 1999, Ariel Sharon was installed
as its interim chairman. He was elected as chairmain on 2 September
1999.

Wonder about that Prudy.two rivers came from Eden, maybe three -
Tigris and Euphrates and Pison - forget about that one but sounds like a
snake river to me.   So do they have apples in turkey?   those apples
had to be bitter little apples, because it took Luther Burbank and othrs
to make them into what we have today.

Bible sounds like encoded big geography book, right?  With maps of key
locations of gold and beryllium (used in nuclear warheads today) and
diamonds and all that good stuff - and boy sometimes add up the gold
market in the bible stashed away somewhere.  Always amazed me that God
took notice of the gold and berrylium outside Eden.

Turkey?  Will have to check that out - Turkey was always a very fierce
country - my uncle had pictures of atrocities committed over there and
he didn't like them at all from what he saw.
Brutal acts in the Garden of Eden?So have to find the two rivers to
find Eden and the gold and beryllium as well.and the Pison River -

AL-AQSA INTIFADA

By Noam Chomsky*

After three weeks of virtual war in the Israeli occupied territories, Prime Minister
Ehud Barak announced a new plan to determine the final status of the region.

During these weeks, over 100 Palestinians were killed, including 30 children,
often by "excessive use of lethal force in circumstances in which neither the
lives of the security forces nor others were in imminent danger, resulting in
unlawful killings," Amnesty International concluded in a detailed report that
was scarcely mentioned in the US. The ratio of Palestinian to Israeli dead was
then about 15-1, reflecting the resources of force available.

Barak's plan was not given in detail, but the outlines are familiar: they conform
to the "final status map" presented by the US-Israel as the basis for the Camp
David negotiations that collapsed in July. This plan, extending US-Israeli rejectionist
proposals of earlier years, called for cantonization of the territories that
Israel had conquered in 1967, with mechanisms to ensure that usable land and
resources (primarily water) remain largely in Israeli hands while the population
is administered by a corrupt and brutal Palestinian authority (PA), playing the
role traditionally assigned to indigenous collaborators under the several varieties
of imperial rule:
the Black leadership of South Africa's Bantustans, to mention only the most obvious
analogue. In the West Bank, a northern canton is to include Nablus and other
Palestinian cities, a central canton is based in Ramallah, and a southern canton
in Bethlehem; Jericho is to remain isolated. Palestinians would be effectively
cut off from Jerusalem, the center of Palestinian life.

Similar arrangements are likely in Gaza, with Israel keeping the southern coastal
region and a small settlement at Netzarim (the site of many of  the recent atrocities),
which is hardly more than an excuse for a large military presence and roads splitting
the Strip below Gaza City. These proposals formalize the vast settlement and
construction programs that Israel has been conducting, thanks to munificent US
aid, with increasing energy since the US was able to implement its version of
the "peace process" after the Gulf war.

For more on the negotiations and their background, see my July 25 commentary;
and for further background, the commentary by Alex and Stephen Shalom, Oct. 10.
 The goal of the negotiations was to secure official PA adherence to this project.
Two months after they collapsed, the current phase of violence began. Tensions,
always high, were raised when the Barak government authorized a visit by Ariel
Sharon with 1000 police to the Muslim religious sites (Al-Aqsa) on a Thursday
(Sept. 28). Sharon is the very symbol of  Israeli state terror and aggression,
with a rich record of atrocities going back to 1953. Sharon's announced purpose
was to demonstrate "Jewish sovereignty" over the al-Aqsa compound, but as the
veteran correspondent Graham Usher points out, the "al-Aqsa intifada," as Palestinians
call it, was not initiated by Sharon's visit; rather, by the massive and  intimidating
police and military presence that Barak introduced the following day, the day
of prayers. Predictably, that led to clashes as thousands of people streamed
out of the mosque, leaving 7 Palestinians dead and 200 wounded.

Whatever Barak's purpose, there could hardly have been a more efficient  way
to set the stage for the shocking atrocities of the following weeks.  The same
can be said about the failed negotiations, which focused on Jerusalem, a condition
observed strictly by US commentary. Possibly Israeli sociologist Baruch Kimmerling
was exaggerating when he wrote that a solution to this problem "could have been
reached in five minutes," but he is right to say that "by any diplomatic logic
[it] should have been the easiest issue to solve (Ha'aretz, Oct. 4).

It is understandable that Clinton-Barak should want to suppress what they are
doing in the occupied territories, which is far more important. Why did Arafat
agree? Perhaps because he recognizes that the leadership of the Arab states regard
the Palestinians as a nuisance, and have little problem with the Bantustan-style
settlement, but cannot overlook administration of the religious sites, fearing
the reaction of their own populations. Nothing could be better calculated to
set off a
confrontation with

[CTRL] DRACULA WAS A GOOD GUY

2000-10-28 Thread J Taylor

-Caveat Lector-

DRACULA WAS A GOOD GUY

Most people believe - as they have been taught - that Dracula was
a bloodthirsty 'vampire' from Transylvania. This Hollywood horror
fairy tale is not true, or it is at least comparable with another
fairy tale closer to our times: the total demonisation of Adolf Hitler.
Here we offer you the true story of Prince Vlad Dracula the Impaler,
Orthodox Christian Crusader of the 15th Century.

FACING THE TURKISH THREAT

Mahomed II entered history as an extremely ambitious Sultan. His two
main goals were to conquer Central Europe and Constantinople. In order
to fulfil his plans he had to occupy Belgrade - the gateway to Central
Europe. Thus the Orthodox Romanian Medieval States and the Catholic
Hungarian Kingdom became the direct targets of Mahomed II. Amidst
the peoples, the idea of a Crusade grows, an idea which will be
accomplished
by Iancu Corvin of Hunedoara, Vlad Dracula the Impaler and St. Stephen
the Great.
   Iancu Corvin of Hunedoara was a Romanian Catholic military Lord
in South-West Transylvania. He also had the jurisdiction of Southern
Banat, on the Danube across which the Ottoman threat was coming. In
1440, after the Hungarian King dies, Iancu Corvin helped the application
of the Polish King Vladislav III for the Hungarian Crown. After the
nomination of the new King in Budapest, Iancu Corvin was named Prince
of Transylvania, in 1441. From that moment he started the project
of the Crusade, mainly on two fields:
   1. By strengthening the military inside Transylvania, working
mostly on the middle class;
   2. By helping his Romanian Orthodox friends to get into power in
Wallachia and Moldavia - across the Carpathians.
   His first great victory upon the Turks took place in Serbia in
1441. By surprise, in 1442, the Turks attack Transylvania. After the
first Ottoman victory, the Christians re-grouped quickly and  struck
back at the invader's army so harshly that they succeed in killing
the Muslim leader together with his son. The dismantled Turkish army
ran away Southwards into Wallachia. Iancu followed them, beat them
and named Basarab II as Prince of Wallachia. In 1442, two more battles
followed in Transylvania and Wallachia; on almost the same frame.
Iancu's victories impressed Europe.
   Poland, Venice, Burgundy and Aragon planned a new Crusade under
the rule of Iancu. Trusting the help promised by these countries,
he began a long campaign into Serbia and Bulgaria, aiming to free
Adrianople and thus to break the siege of Constantinople. But from
Europe, only promises came: the material help was too weak. On his
own, he fought the Sultan, forcing him to ask for a 10 year peace
(the Treaty of Szeged, July 1442). The military preparations didn't
cease. The Pope insisted on an attack and the Venician fleet set sail
for Byzantium. In this new campaign, Iancu commanded the armies of
Transylvania, Croatia, Bosnia and also Wallachia - the last one under
the command of Vlad Dracul (the father of Vlad Dracula the Impaler.
'Dracul' was the Romanian for 'Dragon'; Vlad Dracul gained, as a soldier,
a German Order of the Dragon;  'Dracula' or 'Draculea' means in Romanian
'Son of Dracul'.
This, in short, is the ethimological origin of the name 'Dracula').
In Bulgaria, near Varna, a great battle took place in which the Hungarian
King was killed. In 1446, Iancu Corvin of Hunedoara became Governor
of Hungary. From this new position he developed strong alliances with
Moldavia and Wallachia, shaping a common military defence system.
He also established good contacts with Skanderbeg, the leader of the
Albanians. In 1448, he fought the Turks at Kossovopolje (in Kossovo);
the battle was lost because of treason. Soon afterwards, Iancu placed
Bogdan II (the father of St. Stephen the Great) in power on the Moldavian
Throne. In 1453, Mahomed II conquered Constantinople. In reply, Iancu
fortified the Danube line and strengthened the Carpathian system of
alliances. In 1456, Iancu of Hunedoara installed Vlad Dracula the
Impaler on the Throne of Wallachia; immediately he supported the crowning
of St. Stephen the Great in Moldavia. Looking to stop the Turks in
the battle for Belgrade, Iancu formed an army of 30,000 men from Romania,
Hungary, Poland, Czech, Germany etc. With this force he crushed the
Muslims in a bloodbath. Even Mahomed II was wounded in the battle.
While Europe was celebrating, Iancu died of pest in the military camp
of Zemun, Serbia, on November 11, 1456. His body was laid to rest
in peace in the Catholic Cathedral of Alba Iulia - in the heart of
Transylvania, amongst the people he ruled and commanded in battles
for Christendom.

VLAD DRACULA CONTINUES THE STRUGGLE

The political and military program of Iancu Corvin of Hunedoara was
continued by Vlad Dracula the Impaler of Wallachia and by St. Stephen
the Great of Moldavia.
Vlad Dracula's extremely large European popularity was mainly due
to his strong personality, to his authoritarian spirit and certainly
to his unmerciful

The Phone Call
Why Ross Perot sabotaged his own Reform Party.
by Tom Pauken

Happier Days: In 1999, Ross Perot and Pat Buchanan were
friendly. Although Buchanan was more conservative on social
issues, Perot believed Buchanan could save his Reform Party.

In the fall of 1999, Ross Perot had seemingly agreed to a
plan for his Reform Party. His cohorts had invited Pat
Buchanan and his ³Buchanan Brigades² into the party to blunt
a takeover attempt by Governor Jesse Ventura of Minnesota.
The loudmouthed, coarse ex-wrestler flaunts his contempt for
values Perot holds dear, so it was no surprise that the former
presidential candidate would find a means to stop him. Pat
Buchanan, on the other hand, is articulate, media-savvy, and,
even if more conservative than Perot on social issues, has
fought beside him on the issues Perot cares about. With
Buchanan as its candidate, the Reform Party would use its
$12.5 million in federal matching funds to continue Perot¹s
campaign for economic nationalism, campaign finance reform,
and the elimination of foreign influence in the nation¹s capital.

But by late September 2000, the Reform Party had been
wrecked by trench warfare between Perotistas and
Buchananites, Buchanan was barely registering 1 percent in
the polls, and, after a flurry of lawsuits, the Buchanan
campaign was still waiting for the $12.5 million in federal
funding.

Why did Perot turn with such a vengeance against
Buchanan? Even Buchanan is perplexed, as I found when I
talked with him in early September. Buchanan wouldn¹t
respond when I asked him directly what he thought Perot¹s
motives might be for reversing field and derailing his candidacy.
Others close to Buchanan were less reticent. From their
perspective, Perot¹s ego in the end could not abide giving up
control of ³his² party.

But, as I discovered, the reason the Reform Party shot at establishing a
third party since Theodore
Roosevelt November has nothing to do with Perot¹s famous ego. The
turnabout can be traced to a phone call made to Ross Perot by
a close friend in Dallas.

In early July of last year, Perot ally (and 1996 vice presidential
candidate) Pat Choate and Perot right-hand man Rus Verney
approached Bay Buchanan, Pat¹s sister and campaign adviser,
with a proposition. Choate and Verney argued convincingly that
Buchanan should abandon the GOP and run for the Reform
Party nomination. Buchanan and Perot agreed on many
fundamental issues. They both favor a trade policy that puts
America¹s interests first. They are opponents of free trade
deals like NAFTA and GATT. Both have warned about the loss
of national sovereignty to international organizations like the
WTO. Perot had even invited Buchanan to speak at a United
We Stand conference in 1995, where Buchanan had wowed
the audience with a speech echoing many of Perot¹s favorite
themes. ³We can deliver the Reform Party nomination to Pat,²
Choate told Bay.

Buchanan bit. He unleashed his ³peasant army² to help
Perot forces fend off a takeover attempt by Ventura. The
Buchanan Brigades moved quickly to take over or reestablish
Reform Party organizations in states all across the country.
Within a few months, the Buchanan and Perot forces had
enough votes to take back control of the party¹s national
committee (which Ventura¹s forces had captured). The infusion
of Buchanan¹s recruits into the party had made the difference.
Ventura threw up his hands in disgust and announced that he
and his supporters were abandoning the Reform Party for good.


Immediately fissions appeared. Verney expected to regain
his former post as party chairman. But Buchanan supporters,
who had grown to distrust Perot¹s chief political aide, joined
with other disaffected Reform Party leaders to place Choate in
the top post. This split between the two longtime friends and
allies signaled an underlying rift in the party. Choate
announced he would do all he could to help Pat Buchanan
secure the party¹s nomination at its Long Beach convention in
August.

For his part, Verney confirmed Buchanan¹s suspicions by
announcing he would stop Buchanan at all costs. ³Verney
promised a bloodbath,² says Choate now, ³and he delivered
one in Long Beach.²

Perot¹s hand in this reversal is difficult to verify because
Perot isn¹t talking. He refers all Reform Party matters to
Verney. But Dallas sources who know Perot well are skeptical
that a paid staffer like Verney would freelance on a matter so
crucial as the party¹s candidate for president.

Something caused Ross Perot to change his mind about
Buchanan. And once Perot¹s mind was changed, the Perot
people showed they would go to any length to deny Buchanan
the nomination.

First, Verney tried to recruit Donald Trump to run. After a few
weeks of flirtation, played out in the tabloids, Trump declined to
go head-to-head against the Buchanan Brigades. Trump¹s
dalliance with the headlines

[CTRL] Fwd: [CIA-DRUGS] Legalizing Speed in Thailand

2000-10-28 Thread Kris Millegan





In today's Bangkok post there was an article where a senator in Thailand
called for the setting up of government shops where speed pills would be
sold for 1 baht each, as compared to 120 baht black market prices.

Calling on the decriminalization of speed in order to take the profit
out of it, the senator challenged the Wa to compete with the price of 1
baht for the Thai market.

Although not much could be done for current adicts it was said that it
would greatly reduce harm as well as free up funds for treatment
programs.

Someone is finally bucking the US drug war.

Senator backs legal speed sale

 Pills at a baht each to end black market

 The state should set up its own shops to sell controlled amounts of
cheap methamphetamine
 as the best way to tackle rampant addiction, a northeastern senator
suggested yesterday.

 This would take the initiative away from black market drug traffickers
like the United Wa
 State Army in Burma.

 "The state must revamp its philosophy of drug suppression," Senator
Kawee Supatheera
 (Khon Kaen) said.

 "This is already being done in The Hague [in the Netherlands], where
addicts can buy limited
 amounts of drugs from state stores.

 "They will die eventually of their addiction, and meanwhile the
government is preventing other
 people from getting addicted."He suggested the state should price its
speed at only one baht a
 pill. "Let's see if the Wa army could still capture our market then,"
said the former Khon
 Kaen governor. Mr Kawee was speaking after the 12-member Senate
administration
 committee visited the Interior Ministry for a briefing yesterday. The
panel put the failure of
 efforts to fight drug abuse squarely on the ministry.

 "The longer the state fights against drugs, the more drugs keep
spreading. Drug traffickers
 are very influential," Mr Kawee said.

 The state must also actively encourage the public to help in the fight
against drug addiction, he
 said.

  THE MERGING OF THE PRISON AND PSYCHIATRIC DRUG INDUSTRIES:

  BEWARE OF THE "CHEMICAL PRISON"

  by David Oaks, Director
  Support Coalition International


It can be tough working for human rights of people diagnosed with
psychiatric disorders -- or "psychiatric survivors" as many of us call
ourselves. We call ourselves "psychiatric survivors" to remember those who
did not survive the forced electroshocks, the forced druggings, the back
wards, the restraints, etc.

One big breakthrough for the psychiatric survivor liberation movement this
last year has been with the disability rights movement. The disablity
movement has really helped embrace the "mental  disability" movement as
never before.

But what about the PRISON JUSTICE MOVEMENT? It's time -- past time -- to
build more two-way bridges between the prison justice movement and the
psychiatric survivor liberation movement.

The psychiatric survivor movement originally came out of the same source as
the prison justice movement, thirty years ago. In fact, psychiatric
survivors would call themselves "psychiatric inmates" to emphasize that --
despite all the medical trappings -- they were essentially prisoners.

Now, in the year 2000, I think one of the richest industries in the world
is catching the prison justice movement flat footed.

I'm talking about the psychiatric drug manufacturing industry.

Front groups funded by the psychiatric drug industry (such as National
Alliance for the Mentally Ill) have some very compelling sound bites about
the prison system.

NAMI says that mentally disturbed people are being inappropriately locked
into prisons, and these are folks who should instead be getting "help"
instead of simply incarceration.

Sound good?

The problem is, too many people are not used to popping the hood and
looking inside this sound bite -- they are not  asking "what kind of help"?

If the auto industry came up with a new transportation plan to "help" us,
wouldn't we ask "what kind of help -- more highways or more bike lanes"?

But when it comes to the psychiatric  system, people tend to be mystified.
They usually don't ask tough questions such as "what kind of help?"

The kind of "help" people should receive is voluntary and that offers a
wide range of options, addressing the whole person. This kind of "help"
should be available to anyone caught in the prison system -- it's part of
massively changing the entire prison system.

No, what these front groups mean by "help" is primarily psychiatric drugs.
Now, we're pro-choice about taking psychiatric drugs. But many people don't
want to take these super-powerful psychiatric drugs like "neuroleptics."
Even the newest versions can feel like hell and can cause brain damage, and
even kill.

Now, as you can see below, the USA Congress has just passed a law to
institute "mental health courts." And so you'll see the prospects of people
entering because of crimes related to recreational drugs and leaving
with a court-ordered mandate to take super-powerful corporate psychiatric
drugs against their will, even while living out in the community in their
own home.

If you're living at home, and the government can force you to take
extremely powerful neurotoxins against your will That amounts to a
"chemical prison." You are still in prison. Your home has been made into a
prison. But the bars are made of forced pills and/or injections.

Break the silence about chemical prisons, and the merger of the
pharmaceutical and prison industries!


Fight that corporate merger, by  uniting the prison justice and psychiatric
survivor movements.

Alert people that one of the most profitable industries in the world --
psychiatric drug manufacturers -- are targeting a whole new market at
taxpayer expense -- people who end up in the prison system.

David Oaks, Director
Support Coalition International
http://www.MindFreedom.org
[EMAIL PROTECTED]



[Below is an Associated Press article from yesterday about the new huge
bill just passed by the US Congress, and going to Clinton's desk. This
would institute "mental health courts," which can sound like a good idea...
But when the rubber hits the road it's about coercing lots more people to
enter the "chemical prison" of coerced and forced psychiatric drugs.
They're given diagnoses of "mental disorder" when their real diagnosis is
"oppressed." Their given prescriptions for drugs, when the prescription
they need is social change, and the meeting of basic human needs.]

[CTRL] Degenerative brain disease (CJD) may have spread at hospital

2000-10-28 Thread Steve Wingate

-Caveat Lector-

Degenerative brain disease may have spread at hospital

NEW ORLEANS (October 27, 2000 3:09 p.m. EDT
http://www.nandotimes.com) - A patient who died after brain surgery had an
incurable disease that may have spread to as many as eight other patients
through tainted instruments, hospital officials said.

Tulane University Hospital and Clinic destroyed the instruments as soon as
officials realized the first patient had died from Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease,
said Dr. Alan Miller, a Tulane vice president.

The patient checked into the hospital in March and the disease was
diagnosed in an autopsy in May, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday.
The university said the other patients all had brain surgeries and the
surgical instruments were put through "normal" washing and sterilization
procedures.

Citing patient confidentiality requirements, Tulane did not release the
patients' names or the dates of the procedures. The eight living patients
are receiving counseling and related medical care, Miller said in a
statement.

University officials declined requests for interviews Friday.

The disease strikes about 6,000 people a year, leaving the brain with holes
and a spongelike consistency, resulting in progressive dementia and loss
of physical functions. Patients usually die within a year of the first
symptoms.

University officials did not say whether the original patient had the form of
Creutzfeldt-Jakob that may be related to a bovine brain disorder known as
"mad cow disease." Some authorities believe humans contract that form of
the disease by eating meat from infected cows.

It was not known how the original patient contracted the disease. The only
proven method of transmission between people is medical treatment with
tainted human matter or surgical instruments, according to the Creutzfeldt-
Jakob Disease Foundation.

The independent group that renewed the hospital's accreditation last month
for three years, will investigate, as will the federal agency that administers
Medicare and Medicaid.

[CTRL] Industry-backed bill would nullify state food-warning laws

Industry-backed bill would nullify state food-warning laws

By PHILIP BRASHER, Associated Press

WASHINGTON (October 27, 2000 11:13 a.m. EDT
http://www.nandotimes.com) - The food industry wants to use a must-pass
spending bill to nullify state laws that mandate warnings on food products
and dietary supplements and impose other regulations on processors.

The food-regulation measure was on a list of items Thursday that
Republican Senate leaders planned to attach to the last appropriations bill
that Congress is expected to pass before going home for the elections.

The measure, opposed by state regulatory agencies and the Clinton
administration, would bar states from imposing labeling and food safety
standards that are more stringent than the Food and Drug Administration's.
States would have to petition FDA for exemptions from the law.

"This legislation is needed so that we have a unified, common-sense
system of labeling in the United States and not a patchwork quilt of states
trying to usurp the authority of the FDA," said Gene Grabowski, a
spokesman for the Grocery Manufacturers of America.

The legislation is sponsored by at least three dozen senators, many from
farm states, including Democratic leader Tom Daschle of South Dakota.

Opponents of the legislation say it would effectively block state efforts to act
in areas where FDA has been ineffective or to goad the agency to regulate
products it has not.

The food industry has been trying for 12 years to get out from under a
California law, known as Proposition 65, that requires a warning label on all
products that contain cancer-causing agents or substances that are toxic to
the reproductive system.

Manufacturers typically remove or alter products rather than face the
negative publicity from a warning label. Because California is such a large
market, whatever companies do there they are likely to do nationwide. The
state used the measure to force manufacturers to reduce lead levels in
calcium supplements.

"The Republicans are going against the wishes of California voters with
this anti-environmental rider," said Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif.

She and other Democrats opposed to the industry-backed legislation sent
a letter to the White House urging President Clinton to veto any bill to which
it was attached.

The legislation "sends a strong signal to our states that the federal
government is not interested in learning from new, innovative state ideas,"
the letter said.

In addition to Proposition 65, the legislation also would nullify laws in at
least 17 states, including California, Florida, Illinois and Texas, that allow
them to set tolerances for food additives that are more stringent than FDA
standards, according to the Center for Science in the Public Interest, an
advocacy group opposed to the bill.

The Senate Agriculture Committee approved the legislation in June without
a hearing.

The National Uniformity for Food Act is S. 1155.

Congressional inquiries to DEA and DEA e-mails on Vice President
Al Gore

10/28/2000

The following are two internal DEA E-Mails regarding the March 12
visit of Vice President Al Gore to Brookhollow Baptist Church in
Houston, where Rap-A-Lot Records entrepreneur James A.  Prince
was a member and major financial supporter:

I’ve just been advised that when VP Al Gore was here in town
(Monday?) he spent some time over at the Brookhollow Baptist
Church.  I understand that aside from the Rev.  West, Mr.  Smith
was in attendance as well.  I wonder if the Congresswoman was
there as well???  Have you heard anything about that??

No, the one from Calif.  Was not there as far as I know, but yes
James was there Sunday with the VP at church.  He undoubtedly had
a picture session as well.

The following is a three-page letter sent Friday from House
Government Reform Committee Chairman Dan Burton to Attorney
General Janet Reno.

Congress of the United States House of Representatives Committee
on Government Reform 2157 Rayburn House Office Building
Washington D.C.  20515-6143

October 27, 2000

The Honorable Janet Reno Attorney General United States
Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Washington
D.C.  20530

Dear General Reno,

Pursuant to Rules X and XI of the House of Representatives, the
Committee on Government Reform is conducting an oversight
investigation relating to the Drug Enforcement Administration’s
investigation of James A.  Prince, also known as James A.
Smith, of Houston, Texas.  In July of this year, the committee
requested a briefing on the DEA investigation of Mr.  Prince.
Mr.  Ernest Howard, the Special Agent in Charge of the Houston
Division, gave the briefing.

On July 17, 2000, the Committee was told by Mr.  Howard that the
DEA’s investigation relating to Mr.  Prince had never been
closed, and was an ongoing ``open’’ case.  Mr.  Howard’s briefing
to this committee provided reassurance that the Justice
Department was acting appropriately and the Committee took no
subsequent investigative steps. Earlier this month, however, news
articles began appearing that contradicted information given the
Committee during the briefing.  In response to a letter request
from this Committee, the DEA furnished several e-mails from Mr.
Howard, dated March 14, 2000, and March 15, 2000, that referred
to the Prince investigation as being "closed." For example, in a
written communication between Mr.  Howard and Mr.  R.C. Gamble,
Howard stated:

But it is over now.  The Houston division will terminate all
active investigation of Rap-A-Lot, except for those persons who
have already been arrested/indicted.  If ANY information comes to
the attention of the agents in the Houston Division regarding
Rap-A-Lot or James Smith, it will be vetted through Hqs prior to
ANY action taken here.

It has become clear that this situation demands closer scrutiny
by the Congress.  Accordingly, the Committee requests to
interview the following individuals:

Julio Mercado: HQ Executive Staff R.C.  Gamble: HQ Executive
Staff Felix Jimenez: HQ Executive Staff Robert Joura: Houston
Division Management Staff James Nims: Houston Division Management
Staff Jack Schumacher: Houston Division Management Staff Chad
Scott: Houston Division Management Staff

In addition to the above-referenced personnel, the Committee
anticipates a need for a second interview of Ernest Howard,
Special Agent in Charge, Houston Division, as well as an
interview with Donnie Marshal, Administrator, DEA. With regard to
the Houston-based DEA agents, the Committee is interested in
obtaining answers to the following questions relating to whether
or not the DEA’s investigation of James A.  Prince, aka James A.
Smith, was curtailed due to political interference:

1.  Were you aware of the investigation involving James A.
Prince? 2.  Did you participate in the investigation of James A.
Prince? 3.  Which other DEA personnel were involved in the
investigation of James A.  Prince? 4.  During the period between
August 1, 1999, and October 27, 2000, was your participation in
the investigation of Prince terminated or materially changed?
If so, at what date? 5.  Are you aware of any Houston based DEA
personnel, between the time period of August 1, 1999, and October
27, 2000, that were transferred off of the Prince case?  If so,
how many, and when were they transferred to other duties? 6.
Are you aware of any case activity relating to Prince after March
15, 2000? 7.  Were any leads developed or followed up on Prince
after March 15, 2000? 8.  Were any DEA personnel assigned to the
Prince

 The "blue glow" described below was discussed by Wilhelm Reich in "The
 Oranur Experiment", as a product of highly overcharged orgone energy in the
 environment.  It does not require such highly radioactive materials as are
 present in the core of a nuclear reactor to generate such atmospheric
 glowing, but certainly enough to be concerned about health and safety.
 Similar blue glows were observed in the atmosphere around Three Mile Island
 during the reactor accident there, as well as around Chernobyl, and more
 recently around a nuclear reactor accident in Japan.  It would be ironic
 indeed if the nuclear engineers were forced to admit to the existence of
 some unknown source of the blue glowing, beyond ordinary Cherenkov
 radiation effects which require very strong radiation sources, as in the
 past, most of the eye-witness reports of blue glows around TMI and
 elsewhere have been systematically dismissed as "psychological reactions"
 or "hallucinations" by ordinary people.  Like a UFO, however, if enough
 people see the blue glow, they cannot so easily dismiss it, and so will
 fabricate a "reason" -- in this case, "it must have been smoke".  JD

_'Blue glow' reported at Paducah plant
 
   Memo says nuclear reactions may have occurred in pit_
 
  *By JAMES MALONE, The Courier-Journal*
 
_The area in the circle is where workers at the Paducah Gaseous
  Diffusion Plant reported seeing a "blue glow" in the 1980s and '90s,
  according to an internal memo written by Ray Carroll, a health
  physicist for the U.S. Enrichment Corp., and obtained by The

  BY MICHAEL CLEVENGER,
 
   THE COURIER-JOURNAL
 
  PADUCAH, Ky. -- A "blue glow" reported by workers at the Paducah
  Gaseous Diffusion Plant could indicate nuclear reactions occurred
  underground in a top-secret burial pit for atomic-weapons parts,
  according to an internal memo obtained by The Courier-Journal.
  The memo, written Thursday by a health physicist employed by the plant
  operator, says "a 'blue glow' that looked like 'blue fire' above the
  ground" was first observed in the early 1980s over the southwest corner
  of the C-746-F classified burial yard and was reportedly seen a number
  of times after that.
  Ray Carroll, a health physicist for the U.S. Enrichment Corp., wrote
  that the "blue glow" could be a type of radiation resulting from
  nuclear fission processes, and added, "If the cause is a fission
  source, personnel entering the area could potentially receive a lethal
  dose of radiation."
 
  _CJ Extra:_   _THE PADUCAH GASEOUS DIFFUSION PLANT
  [http://www.courier-journal.com/cjextra/uranium/index.html] _
 
  But the
  U.S. Department of Energy's site manager at Paducah, Don Seaborg, said
  yesterday, "We don't have any indication" that a fission reaction
  occurred. He said that after receiving the memo last week, he had not
  been able to find supporting data, such as elevated radiation readings
  on the landfill's surface or worker exposure measurements.
  "That's the concern, if you have a blue glow, then that's indicative of
  a criticality and of course a major safety concern," Seaborg said. "My
  background experience tells me that it was unlikely something was going
  on of a criticality (nuclear reaction) nature. I'm bringing in the
  right people with the right certifications to verify that."
  The plant has been in the news since August 1999 when three employees
  filed a whistleblower lawsuit alleging that contamination and
  conditions were much worse than had been disclosed by former operators.
  A cleanup effort is underway.
  The Energy Department leases production facilities to the U.S.
  Enrichment Corp., a publicly traded company, but still owns the burial
  pit and other areas where radioactive and hazardous waste was dumped or
  stored during a half-century of enriching uranium for weapons and power
  plants.
  According to the memo, the burial yard was covered with five to nine
  feet of dirt at an undisclosed time after the first observations of a
  "blue glow." But it notes that there was another reported sighting in
  1996, long after the earthen cover was applied. The glow has only been
  seen immediately after a heavy rain, when there was a mist or moisture
  in the air, the memo said. Carroll wrote that the

Gadfly Charges Gore, Bush 'Taking Sides' for Israel

By NACHA CATTAN

FORWARD STAFF

Ralph Nader's Party called this week for a suspension of United States aid to
Israel and blamed the Jewish state for the current violence in the Middle
East.

The statement paralleled a series of recent declarations by Mr. Nader, in
which the third-party, presidential candidate reportedly accused Vice
President Gore of being "cowardly" in his stated support of Israel and
criticized Mr. Gore and Governor Bush for "taking sides" on Israel's behalf
in the Middle East conflict.

Mr. Nader, a son of Lebanese immigrants who is said to be fluent in Arabic,
is best known as a consumer advocate. His views on the Middle East were not

Mr. Nader is polling as high as 11% in several key states and worrying
Democratic activists who fear he is draining support from Mr. Gore.
Washington, Oregon, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan are hotbeds of Nader
support as well as toss-up states in the dead heat between Mr. Bush and Mr.
Gore.

Democratic activists are calling the Green Party's statement one of the most
anti-Israel ever attributed to a party engaged in a presidential campaign.
They are demanding that Green Party Jews abandon Mr. Nader and his running
mate, Winona LaDuke, a Native American activist whose mother is Jewish. Some
3% of Jews said they planned to vote for Mr. Nader, according to a recent
survey by the American Jewish Committee.

The Green Party holds a "distorted view of Israel that is naive at best and
malevolent at worst," the executive director of the National Jewish
Democratic Council, Ira Foman, told the Forward. The Party's statement, he
said, "is representative of Ralph Nader's views on the Middle East."

Mr. Nader's Jewish supporters, including some of the party's top officials,
expressed surprise at their party's positions on the Middle East, most saying
that they had not been aware of them. Mosts, however, said they would
continuue to support Mr. Nader based on his views on the environment,
corporate accountability and opposition to standing global trade agreements.

Naders supporters also said that the Green candidate's foreign-policy
positions do not matter because the candidate has no chance of being voted
into office.

Mr. Nader's New York state coordinator, who is a former Yeshiva of Flatbush
student and former resident of Israel whose father lives in the Galilee, said
she did not know about the Green Party's statement. Masado Disenhouse
declined to comment on the statement or Mr. Nader's stance on the Middle
East.

The co-chairman of New Mexico's Green Party, Elisheva Crowell, said she
disagrees with the Green Party's/statement, which was appreved after being
distributed via e-mail among state party chairman. However, Ms. Crowell said
that she will vote Green to help the party capture the 5% of the national
vote needed to earn federal matching funds for the 2004 campaign.

"Ralph Nader presents the Jewish views of justice and giving a voice to
groups that traditionally have been voiceless," Ms. Crowell said."

Fear pervades Supermax

October 10, 2000
By David Callendar
The Capital Times

A survey of inmates at the ultrahigh-secuirty Supermax prison
indicates that some fear for their lives -- and even more fear for
their sanity.

A survey by the Wisconsin Coalition to Stop Control Unit Prisons
of 71 of the prison's 175 inmates at the time of last summer's
survey (there are now 312 inmates) found that "prisoners are afraid
of prison staff, afraid of other prisoners, and afraid of losing
their minds."

The prison has been the target of criticism from lawmakers since
it opened last November. Two prisoners have filed suit in federal
court alleging inhumane treatment at the facility.

Gov. Tommy Thompson was scheduled to visit the prison today on a
fact-finding tour, but aides said the trip was unrelated to the
recent controversy.

The Department of Corrections has denied any prisoner abuse and
contends the prison is meant to handle those who will not comply
with prison rules and who pose a danger to themselves and others.

The 500-bed Supermax prison keeps inmates in total isolation in
8-by-12-foot cells for up to 23 hours a day and allows them only
one hour per week of exercise in an enclosed yard. Inmates are
allowed more privileges -- such as more time in the exercise yard
or access to reading material -- if they behave.

Many of those surveyed said they were afraid of being beaten by
guards, particularly during "cell extractions," when inmates are
forcibly removed by a team of guards.

Three inmates said they were afraid of dying while in Supermax.

In the words of one inmate, whom the survey did not identify, "I
don't think the word 'afraid' is appropriate. I simply do not
believe I am going to leave (Supermax) alive. My great fear is
being handcuffed and led to a cell to find a noose hanging there
waiting for me, then having these correctional officers cover up
my death with a story of suicide."

Others said they fear the long-term effects of isolation.

"I'm afraid that I'm going to lose my mind," one prisoner wrote.
"This prison's staff employs tactics that are used to break men's
minds. I don't know how long I can hold on to my sanity and that
scares me."

Inmates generally have no contact with guards, who monitor them
via TV, and are allowed only brief visits with friends or family
also via two-way TV.

Thirty-nine of those surveyed said no one had visited them while
they were in Supermax. Many said they told family members not to
visit them at Supermax.

"My family doesn't want to drive here to see me on a video monitor,"
one inmate wrote.

The Supermax, which opened in Boscobel last year, is intended to
house "the worst of the worst" among Wisconsin inmates, such as
those who have assaulted guards or other inmates or who pose an
escape threat.

The survey disputed those assignments, however, and found many "did
not reflect the most violent prison behavior. In fact, a few
prisoners expressed that they really did not know why they were
there. Others were sent to complete disciplinary sentences whcih,
before the existence of (the Supermax) were completed in disciplinary
segregation units inside the state prisons."

Others were placed in Supermax because they were federal prisoners
who previously had been housed in Wisconsin prisons and met the
criteria for incarceration at Supermax.

Sixteen of those surveyed said they had been housed at a privately
run prison in Whiteville,Tenn., that had been the site of an inmate
uprising last November. The Department of Corrections had found
evidence of guards abusing inmates there.

Other inmates who identified their reason for being in the Supermax
included seven who said they had a history of prison assaults;
seven who had a history of gang involvement; seven who said the
assignments were based on old disciplinary records; and four who
had previously been in federal prisons.

Subject: Digging Dams with Nukes in China

 from:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/et?ac=003673231207432rtmo=lnoFuH7tatmo=tttdpg=/et/00/10/22/wchin22.html

 CHINESE leaders are drawing up plans to use nuclear explosions, in breach of
 the international test-ban treaty, to blast a tunnel through the Himalayas
 for the world's biggest hydroelectric plant.

 The proposed power station is forecast to produce more than twice as much
 electricity as the controversial Three Gorges Dam being built on the Yangtze
 river. The project, which also involves diverting Tibetan water to arid
 regions, is due to begin as soon as construction of the Three Gorges Dam is
 completed in 2009.

 China will have to overcome fierce opposition from neighbouring countries
 who fear that the scheme could endanger the lives and livelihoods of
 millions of their people. Critics say that those living downstream would be
 at the mercy of Chinese dam officials who would be able to flood them or
 withhold their water supply.

 International opposition may bar Beijing from World Bank loans for the
 project and prevent it from listing bonds and shares on world markets to
 fund the scheme. If, as its experts believe, China has to use nuclear
 materials in order to blast the proposed 10-mile tunnel, the country will
 attract international opprobrium for breaching the Comprehensive Test Ban
 Treaty.

 Nuclear devices have been used in the past by Russia for engineering
 schemes, but the United States has rejected their use for civil projects on
 safety grounds. Last week, China's state-run media reported that the project
 would form part of a national strategy to divert water from rivers in the
 south and west to drought-stricken northern areas. The reports said that a
 38 million kilowatt power station at Muotuo on the Yarlung Zangbo river in
 Tibet would harness the force of a 9,840ft drop in terrain over only a few
 miles.

 The capacity of the station would make it the world's largest power
 generation facility, much bigger than the 18 million kilowatt plant at the
 Three Gorges. The cost of drilling the tunnel through Mount Namcha Barwa has
 not yet been announced, but appears likely to surpass 10 billion.

 At the bottom of the tunnel, the water will flow into a new reservoir and
 then be diverted along more than 500 miles of the Tibetan plateau to the
 vast, arid areas of Xinjiang region and Gansu province. Beijing wants to use
 large quantities of the plentiful waters of the south-west to top up the
 Yellow River basin and assuage mounting discontent over water shortages in
 600 cities in northern China.

 The government said last week that it would fund three huge water-diversion
 schemes in the west, centre and east of the country to quench the north's
 thirst. The proposal to dam and divert the Yarlung Zangbo as part of the
 western leg of this policy has drawn fire from several Chinese scientists.

 Yang Yong, a geologist who has explored the river, said the dam could become
 an embarrassing white elephant amid growing signs that the volume of water
 flowing in the Yarlung Zangpo could shrink. He said: "Environmental
 conditions in the upper reaches of the river continue to deteriorate, with
 glaciers receding and tributaries and lakes going dry."

 Tibetan activists have warned that the plans are likely to devastate the
 lower reaches of the Yarlung Zangbo, which flows south where it becomes the
 Brahmaputra. This river irrigates the northern plains of Assam state in
 India before flowing through Bangladesh and emptying into the Bay of Bengal.

 Lorne Stockman, of the International Tibet Support Group Network, said: "The
 countries downstream are at the mercy of China in regard to the water flows
 from the Yarlung Zangbo. During the dry season, the water will be held back
 to keep the water reservoir full for power generation, and during the
 monsoon season, the Chinese will be compelled to release the water in
 bursts."

 The Soviet-trained engineers who dominate China's Communist hierarchy have
 been tagged "dam fetishists" by opponents of their gargantuan hydropower
 programme. The country has built more dams than the rest of the world
 combined in the past 30 years and is responsible for the most controversial
 of them all: the 6 billion Three Gorges project, which is displacing more
 than 1.2 million people as it submerges towns and scenic and historical
 sites.

 Senior government figures have announced that the dam-building programme
 will be expanded in the next decade. Thirty-one large dams are currently on
 the drawing board. Wen Jiabao, a Chinese vice-premier who is tipped to be
 the next prime minister, said: "In the 21st century, the construction of
 large dams will play a key role in

How Microsoft Hacked Itself


As the worm turns.

The Qaz worm used to hack into Microsoft's servers on Thursday was not a
particularly elegant piece of coding, but Shakespeare would have loved it.

As in, Bill Gates was hoisted with his own petard.

Qaz, as it turns out, was written in the company's own programming language:
Microsoft Visual C++.

Security experts say an equally efficient worm could have been written in
another programming language, but Visual C++ is rapidly becoming the hacking
program of choice.

It's relatively easy to learn Visual C programming, and rogue programs
created with C++ are compatible with the majority of applications used by
corporations.

So, it's more ironic than anything that Qaz was used for the latest Microsoft
hack.

"Do I think it was written in C++ specifically to mock Microsoft? No," said
David Anderson, of Anderson Consulting (a small, freelance consulting firm
not to be confused with the much larger Andersen Consulting).

"But do I think its amusing that their own application was indirectly used to
attack them? Yes. God, I hate to admit it, but it made me smile," Anderson
added.

"It is interesting in a kind of cruel way that Microsoft has been eaten by
the monsters it created," said Andrew Antipass, a security consultant.

But Antipass said he finds it more interesting that Microsoft obviously
stored valuable source code on a very accessible server.

"I tell my clients to isolate all valuable information off the network.
There's something about this whole Microsoft hack that doesn't make sense.
Either they thought they were invincible, or they left a door very open for
reasons I can't even begin to guess at."

Jonathan Addams, a freelance security consultant, says that virtually any
firewall can be bypassed if the organization behind that firewall has "the
Outlook e-mail program, a Windows NT box as the server and just one dim
employee."

He wasn't surprised to learn that the worm was written in Visual C++.

"Microsoft products are in wide use," Addams said. "The cracks that are
directed at Microsoft products are partly because they are so popular. Why
crack something that's obscure?
Addams said that this crack is more about people "being stupid" and opening
e-mail attachments -- and systems administrators "being too lazy" to apply
fixes for known problems -- than it is an issue with the security levels of
Microsoft's products.

The Qaz worm was identified in August. It is a network worm with backdoor
capabilities, which allows an attacker entry into an infected computer
system. Once a system has been breached by the worm, it is possible to grab
passwords off the server logs and use those passwords to enter into other
sections of the server.

The worm was considered to be of moderate risk, since it wasn't spreading
quickly and there was a fix for it at available at security sites such as
F-Secure.

Addams said he was troubled by the fact that the crackers had access to the
MS network for three months.

"You'd think someone would have looked at the log, seen unusual activity and
caught it in a day or two," Addams said. "There would have been significant
and odd activity on their servers when this was happening."

'It's like tackling a cryptic crossword'
Program code is top trophy for computer raider
Obsession led to top job in net security
Why Russia excels in new cybercrime
See City Comment

MICROSOFT, the world's leading computer software firm, called in the FBI
yesterday to investigate one of the most embarrassing breaches of computer
security in corporate history.
Hackers were reported to have copied the source code blueprints of the latest
versions of its flagship Windows and Office products, which are installed on
90 per cent of the world's personal computers. The break-in was discovered
when security employees detected passwords being remotely sent to an e-mail
account in St Petersburg, Russia.

Electronic footprints reportedly showed that the passwords had been used to
transfer source code outside Microsoft's campus at Redmond, near Seattle. The
hackers are believed to have used a "trojan" computer program known as Qaz,
which was first identified in China in July.
Microsoft was unable to say how long the hacking had been going on, although
some reports said the attack could date back three months. The Windows source
code is one of the world's most closely-guarded industrial secrets and a M
icrosoft spokesman condemned the intrusion as "a deplorable act of industrial
espionage".

However, the company later played down its initial announcement that the
codes had been copied after rivals revelled in the firm falling prey to a
rather banal security breach. Steve Ballmer, the chief executive, when asked
how damaging the break-in was, said: "Not very, but we want to make sure it
doesn't get that way and that's why we called in the FBI."

He denied that any source codes had been stolen, but added: "It is clear that
hackers did see some of our source code." Microsoft has been repeatedly
castigated for woeful levels of security on its products. Yesterday's
humiliation did not come as a great surprise within the industry. The
break-in was the latest in a string of security breaches of Microsoft
products and networks that the company has addressed often only after hackers
have pointed out the loopholes.

The Lovebug and Melissa viruses were able to wreak such major destruction,
costing corporate e-mail systems tens of billions of pounds, only because
Microsoft repeatedly ignored criticisms of software security. A similar
complacency led to Bill Gates's company being forced to close its Hotmail
e-mail service last year after a security breach allowed anyone to read
subscribers' personal messages.

Of most embarrassment to Microsoft is that the latest breach was made by the
Qaz "trojan", a remarkably well-known attacker that ought to be barred by the
most basic anti-virus software. If the code has been copied, Microsoft could
face a demand for a "ransom" to prevent it being released on the internet.
The code could also be used to make malicious software to attack Windows and
Office products.

The company will also be anxious to ensure that highly-saleable research and
development files, litigation papers, government discussion documents and
corporate strategy information have not been accessed. Graham Satchwell, a
former senior Microsoft investigator who now runs a security consultancy,
said: "If it was a prankster, it is most unlikely that they would do nothing
to advertise their success. That leaves the possibility that it is something
more sinister."
The development had no adverse impact on Microsoft shares yesterday, which
rose $3.5 to $68 in early trading.

  Market Summary   October 27, 2000
Posted Daily Between 5 and 6:30 PM EST
by Lance Lewis

Squeeze Continues
Asia was lower last night as Japan fell another 2 percent to hit a new low
for the move and Hong Kong was off a percent. Europe was up around a percent
as we approached the US open. The futures in the US were strongly positive.
We had our usual pop at the open followed by a selloff, which was followed by
another rally that held. From there we had a slow, gradual grind higher until
the last couple hours where things started selling off. The bulls had to be
long for the weekend though, and we had a nice bounce in the last hour to
take us back up just shy of the earlier highs. Volume pulled back quite a bit
from recent days, which is somewhat bearish (1.1 bil on the NYSE and 2 bil on
the Naz.) Breadth was just shy of 2 to 1 positive on the NYSE and slightly
positive on the other casino. Big gainers on the day were in wireless
oriented shares as the YLS gained 3 percent. Big losers were in the oil
service and biotech shares as the OSX fell 5 percent and the BTK fell 4
percent.

We got earnings from JDSU last night and all that we need to note was that
the market decided they wanted to love them. Never mind that the company lost
a billion dollars on even less in revenue. They had JDSU up about $9 right at
the open, and that was the high for the day, as the stock proceeded to be
sold progressively lower for the rest of the day to end up only $3. AMGN
guided Q4 down last night when it reported, and the stock was clipped for 13
percent. This put a drag on the BTK and had some of the other biofluffs…
er I mean biotechs weak also as the BTK fell 4 percent. Semiconductors
were being sold right from the open. MU fell another 4 percent as DRAM prices
continue to proceed further and further into the basement. AMAT was clubbed
for 9 percent, as was TER. Obviously somebody thinks semi equipment is still
not the place to be. PC stocks were bought after IM reported last night. DELL
rose a percent, and GTW rose 5 percent. Optical kids were movin and groovin
off of JDSU’s results as GLW rose 9 percent but fell back substantially from
its high. B2B were a little less loved as ARBA fell 10 percent. Financials
were broadly stronger. The BKX rose 3 percent, and the derivative king rose 6
percent. Brokers were also stronger as the XBD rose 2 percent. GS actually
had a little trouble late in the afternoon and slipped into the red, but it
too managed to close in the green. GE flopped around unchanged all day and
closed up an 1/8th by the close. Credit card trash was weaker early on but
managed to green up into the close also. Retail stocks were weaker early on
after the GDP data (more on that below) but managed to turn up slightly as
the day wore on. The RLX closed up a percent.

GDP growth came in a much weaker than expected 2.7% for Q3 as opposed to
3.5%, which the market was expecting. That’s a huge drop off from Q2, which
was 5.6%. The PCE price index, which the Fed favors, showed a rise of 2.2%
above Q2’s 2.1% rise. Thus, we have slowing growth with rising inflation…
a.k.a. STAGFLATION.

AAII sentiment survey was taken on Wed, and to my amazement it was another
contrarian's dream as bullishness among US individual investors actually rose
to 64% from 49% a week ago.  Likewise, bears fell to 18% from 24%.

Oil fell a buck. The XOI fell a percent, and the OSX fell 5 percent. Gold had
bit of a mid-day recovery to only lose 70 cents. The XAU and HUI both closed
higher by a couple percent. This is two up-days in a row for gold shares…
somebody wake me up, I must be dreaming. The move in the gold shares could be
telling us that this break in the dollar might be the real deal. Especially
with the utilities having put in a top already as well. The dollar was lower
against most currencies as the US dollar index fell a percent on the weak GDP
data this morning. The euro in particular had a second day of rally-mode as
it rose to $.84, taking it back to its highs of the week. Recall that the
last ECB joint intervention with the rest of the globe came on the heels of a
two-day rally in the euro not unlike the one we’ve seen over the last two
days. Will they intervene on Monday? Maybe, but we obviously have no way to
know. After Secretary Summers’ stated this week at the G20 meeting that the
US "still favors a strong dollar" (ie- we need to continue to meltup the
dollar against other currencies in order to continue to finance this bubble,
you silly), I doubt the US will participate in any intervention. That means
the rest of the planet will have to gang up on the dollar, which they might
just do. Once the dollar breaks against the euro for good, I tend to think
we’ll get an avalanche of selling from Europeans that have jumped into US
stocks to enjoy the

Foreign media sites barred as Beijing tries to stop information

Beijing: The Sydney Morning Herald's Web site, www.smh.com.au, may have
fallen victim to China's attempts to control domestic access to foreign
Internet sites.
Beat the ban
To access this site (or any other site outlawed the Chinese authorities for
that matter), call up one of these free services:
• Space proxy
• Anonymizer
• Rewebber/
• Secret surfer
Then, type in www.smh.com.au and you're ready to go.

The Herald site has been unavailable through Chinese Internet service
providers (ISPs) for more than two weeks. Callers to the Herald bureau in
Beijing have said they have been unable to access it since soon after the
Olympics.
Other Australian media sites, including those of The Australian Financial
Review and The Australian, remain available.
Sources in the Ministry of Information Industry, which supervises network
access in China, have confirmed that the Herald site cannot be traced into
the domestic network. But no government agency appears willing or able to
shed any light on why.
The Foreign Ministry, the Public Security Bureau and the agencies responsible
for network access have all denied knowledge of or responsibility for a block
on the site. The Herald's sister paper, The Age, has been unreachable via
Chinese ISPs for more than a year. Fairfax's F2 site remains unaffected.
China routinely blocks the Web sites of certain overseas news organisations.
The New York Times and The Washington Post are rarely accessible, and the CNN
and the BBC sites are also often barred.
Human rights sites critical of the Government are also blocked.
In August the People's Daily, the mouthpiece of the Communist Party, called
on official media to strengthen their "political thought work" in the face of
a flood of information available via the Internet, which it described as a
"thought and public opinion battle front".

"Enemy forces at home and abroad are sparing no effort to use this battle
front to infiltrate us," the paper said.
The Internet poses a problem for China's political leaders, who are in two
minds about the free flow of information it makes possible.
A number of domestic sites that challenged the Government have been closed
this year.
Aside from political "Web dissidents", China has also targeted the banned
Falun Gong spiritual and meditation movement, pornography and criminal
activity.
The most recent figures indicate there are at least 17million Internet users
in China - slightly more than 1per cent of the population. The China National
Network Information Centre says the number doubled in the first half of this
year.
It is expected that China will become the world's largest Internet market in
the next five years.

 Bush and Cocaine

 Six months ago a CounterPuncher in whom we have absolute confidence
relayed to us a
 conversation he had just had with someone who had attended Yale at the
same time as George W.
 Bush. The Yale man told our CounterPuncher of his direct knowledge of
young Bush selling
 cocaine in his college years. The Yale man adamantly refused to go on the
record, on the
 grounds that he had no desire to authenticate a story that could only
damage Bush's chances in
 the race for the presidency this year.

 We relay the story now to our readers because we have been reliably
informed that a New York
 Times investigative team digging into George W. Bush's relationship to
cocaine has unearthed a
 similar story of young George W. using cocaine in bars and dealing cocaine
out of a house in
 New Haven. But, as yet, the Times's investigators have been unable to get
anyone to go on the
 record.

 As the presidential campaign heads into its final stretch CounterPunch has
been disgusted,
 though not particularly surprised, by the gentle handling the press has
given both Bush and Al
 Gore on the matter of drug use. Bush's refusal to give any direct answer
on his relationship to
 cocaine before 1974 is a matter of record. This can only mean that he has
something to hide;
 that he fears that a categorical denial could be refuted by someone with
knowledge of his
 activities relating to cocaine.

 The attitude of the press is that "nothing new" has emerged to justify any
reprise of the
 Bush/cocaine stories. Nothing new? Not a day passes in the nation's courts
but that a
 non-violent drug offender is put behind bars for cocaine possession,
either for use or for sale
 or both. Yet here is the governor of Texas, seeking to lead a nation
cursed by a "war on
 drugs", refusing to address questions about cocaine use in his own past.

 Al Gore has grudgingly conceded use of marijuana in the 1970s. The prime
source for the drug
 habits both of Gore and his wife Tipper is John Warnecke, their supplier
at the time, who has
 stated that at that time in Nashville Gore smoked as much marijuana as
anyone he knew,
 including opium-coated Thai sticks. We have heard stories, though devoid
of the same
 categorical eye-witness certainty of the Yale informant, of Gore's
continued enjoyment of
 marijuana in later years after he entered Congress. Today Gore reiterates
his support for the
 war on drugs and declares that imprisoned offenders should not be released
until they test
 clean.

 There have been many destructive campaigns by US governments, both
Republican and Democrat, but
 only a few with more terrible consequences than the war on drugs. At home
this war has been
 aimed primarily at the poor and most of all against black people. It is a
war that has kicked
 aside constitutional protections and crammed our prisons. Abroad the war
is a rationale for
 counter-insurgency.

 Today the Taliban, installed with CIA backing, now rule Afghanistan as the
world's leading
 supplier of heroin and morphine to the west. The Colombian military, flush
with a billion in
 aid from the Clinton administration, make war on desperate peasants with
nothing but coca and
 opium cultivation between them and starvation.

 No inconvenient questions about the drug war or any personal relationship
with drugs by either
 candidate have perturbed the decorum of the debates. Jim Lehrer didn't ask
George W. Bush about
 cocaine or Al Gore about marijuana. Yet Bush has been posturing about a
crusade to restore
 moral honor to the Oval Office and Gore about "personal responsibility".
We await with interest
 the ultimate editorial decision of the New York Times. CP

Radio Rat Poison
The dark side of Disney: nasty, vicious hate radio in one of the nation's
most tolerant, progressive markets.

By Daniel Zoll

THE MAGIC WORD for the Walt Disney Company is synergy: The Lion King,
produced by Disney's Touchstone Pictures, gets promoted on Radio Disney,
airs on Disney's ABC-TV, and gets spun off as a Broadway show (produced by
Disney), a theme park attraction (at Disney World), and a line of Disney
toys.
So as long as Mickey Mouse and Co. are cross-promoting, why not give San
Francisco's own Michael Savage ­ a host on Disney-owned "Hot Talk" KSFO-AM ­
his own Disneyland ride? They could call the ride "It's a White World After
All." Or kids could take aim at immigrants trying to cross the U.S.-Mexico
border at the "Savage Nation Shooting Gallery." The Disney Store chain might
sell Savage's commentaries on "turd-world" immigration, or why women
shouldn't vote, or the gay rights movement, which he calls the "Pink
Swastika."
Actually, it's safe to say you won't see any of those things coming to
Disneyland anytime soon. The giant media conglomerate works hard to promote
and defend its image as a family-friendly entertainment company that makes
nice movies, runs clean, safe, fun amusement parks for Mom, Dad, and the
kids, and bills itself as "the place to turn for quality family
entertainment."
But there's another side to Disney, and you can hear it every day in, of all
places, San Francisco. Welcome to hate radio, Disney style.
In just the past week or so, for example, Michael Savage has equated gays
with pedophiles and suggested that homosexuality is a conspiracy to reduce
the population of white Americans while Asians and Hispanics (who "breed
like rabbits") take over the country. According to news reports, Savage (who
is Jewish) once played tapes of Adolph Hitler's speeches over German
military music the day after Yom Kippur. On the afternoon of Herb Caen's
funeral, he played sound effects of him pissing on the columnist's grave. He
even once suggested that some Marin schoolgirls who passed out sandwiches to
the homeless in San Francisco were in danger of getting raped but might
enjoy it (see Savage Family Values).
The Walt Disney Co. referred me to Julie Hoover of ABC Radio, who stressed
that she could not speak for the parent company. She said that both Disney
and ABC radio "support a diversity of voices."
"We recognize that some of the people who speak on some of our stations will
be saying things that not everybody agrees with," she said.
She added that Disney has a good reputation as an equal opportunity employer
who offers domestic partners benefits.

Shock-jock schlock

Of course, right-wing ranting is a staple of talk radio around the country.
And conservatives have as much right to the airwaves as anyone else. But a
lot of people in San Francisco and elsewhere around the country are starting
to wonder how long Disney can continue to maintain its wholesome image and
still push the envelope on shock-jock schlock.
A few weeks ago, Disney paid $2 million to settle a lawsuit over a promotion
by the morning show team at its KLOS station in Los Angeles. Hosts Mark and
Brian had the bright idea of giving out "black hoes" ­ black plastic
gardening tools ­ as a gag promotion. Employee Judy Goodwin had sued in
August 1999, contending that the promotion was "racist and sexually
degrading." After initially refusing to apologize and denying all claims,
Disney settled the lawsuit last month. Civil rights groups are reportedly
still upset that Disney has taken no action against its executives. As for
Mark and Brian, their Disney contracts were recently extended.
Some observers think it's only a matter of time before San Francisco's
Savage ­ whose real name is Michael Weiner ­ goes too far. "There has been
some concern that he would cross the line, get the stations sued, get
clients to bail out, get Disney to lower the boom on him," said a KSFO
insider who asked not to be named.
It is unlikely that the image-conscious company would feel comfortable being
associated with the likes of Savage and its other hate jocks. Charles Lyons,
who covers Disney's film studios for Variety, says that the company is
ultrasensitive about maintaining its wholesome reputation. When Disney's
Miramax film division released the controversial Kids in 1995, Lyons
recalls, the parent company immediately

14-year-old dies from mad cow disease in England

The Associated Press

LONDON (October 28, 2000 5:01 p.m. EDT http://www.nandotimes.com) -
A 14-year-old girl became the latest person to die of Creutzfeldt-Jakob
disease, the human form of mad cow disease, on Saturday.

Zoe Jeffries died at her home in Wigan in northern England, just days after
her family allowed television cameras to record her plight. She was seen
lying virtually motionless in bed.

Helen Jeffries, whose family has since stopped eating meat, said she felt
guilty for buying cheap beefburgers, which she fears may have caused her
daughter's illness.

"They were the cheapest ones. Zoe ate them probably three times a week,"
she said.

The British government this week promised millions of dollars in
compensation for families stricken by the disease. It released an
independent report Thursday showing officials were slow to respond to
evidence of its threat to human health.

It said mistakes were made in the handling of the crisis, including a six-
month delay in informing the public about the disease after government
scientists identified it in late 1995, for fear of causing panic and damaging
British trade.

Eighty-one people have now died from the brain-wasting disease in Britain
and five other cases are suspected. Three lawsuits have been filed against
the government.

Both the cow form and its variant, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, are varieties
of a rare group of brain-wasting diseases known as transmissible
spongiform encephalopathies. Such illnesses cause microscopic holes in
the brain. There is no cure.

[CTRL] After Mad Cow, Rotten Duck Shocks Gourmets

After Mad Cow, Rotten Duck Shocks Gourmets

Updated 8:24 AM ET October 27, 2000

By Francois Raitberger

PARIS (Reuters) - After mad cows, it's dodgy duck -- another food scandal
hit French headlines Friday to shock a country proud of its gourmet
reputation.

The daily Le Parisien revealed that 23 tonnes of duck confit, a hearty
southwestern specialty of duck meat preserved in its own fat, were found to
be rotten in a routine inspection last year.

Almost half the shipment had already been packed into 6,000 tins labeled
"Top quality" and was set for delivery from the factory in the Dordogne
region, the proud home of such famous delicacies as foie gras and truffles.

The news -- which dominated radio and television headlines Friday -- came
as the Agriculture Ministry announced another seven cases of mad cow
disease or bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), bringing to 78 the
total number of cases of the brain-wasting disease detected this year.

Their herds, 531 animals in all, were destroyed, it said.

Meanwhile, displaying another French tradition almost as entrenched as
good eating, trade unionists said they would demonstrate later Friday for
the release of a trader jailed for selling livestock from a herd where BSE
had been detected.

Three retail chains this week warned customers to return any beef they had
bought recently because some of their shipments had come from the same
herd in western France. Eating BSE-infected beef can trigger a version of
the similarly fatal Creutzfeld-Jakob Disease in humans.

In Corsica, officials reported that over 260 sheep suffering from a nose and
throat inflammation known locally as "blue tongue disease" had died or
been slaughtered this week.

WEBBED FEET AND FEATHERS

Le Parisien published a facsimile of the Agriculture Ministry inspector's
report that said duck meat had been left standing for some time after its
slaughter before being canned.

Some duck legs were badly bruised while others still had their webbed feet
and feathers attached.

The scandal went unreported and the company went bankrupt eight months
ago, Le Parisien said. Financial police were investigating suspicions of tax
fraud, abuse of corporate funds and money laundering.

The state prosecutor investigating the case was due to hold a news
conference later in the day.

The scandal, which could shake other food companies in southwest
France, followed a series of scares including the presence of dioxin and
sewage sludge in animal feed.

Apart from the suspect beef recalled from the three supermarket chains,
about 10 makers of tripe and animal feed also received meat products
from the affected herd.

The Agriculture Ministry said efforts were under way to retrieve the
potentially contaminated meat products, but some might have already
wound up feeding man and beast.

A year ago the European Commission reported that some French
rendering plants were supplying animal feed makers with animal remains
contaminated by sewage sludge.

France's poultry and dairy industries lost at least 500 million French francs
($63 million) last year after it was discovered that Belgian animal feed
tainted with the toxic chemical dioxin had made its way to French farms.

Please sign this email with your own name and send it to Ralph Nader at
[EMAIL PROTECTED]   Then forward it to every person in your email
address book, to the newspapers and broadcasters in your area, and
anyone else you can think of.  With the race so close and such a short time
until the election, it's time for action.

Dear Mr. Nader:

Over the years you have done a great deal for the American people.  Now
you are about to do great harm.  Your candidacy in this election has been
important.  You have raised serious issues that need to be addressed.  But
now your message is out and it's time to set aside ideology and step
aside.  If you don't you will ensure that George W. Bush is our next
president.  And if he is elected with a Republican majority in Congress, the
American people stand to lose most of the social, economic and
environmental progress we have made in the last thirty years.   If there is
any question in your mind of this, consider the following:

THE SUPREME COURT

Bush will appoint activist conservative judges who will actively seek to take
away a woman's right to choose.

They will also support the corporate interests you have been so gallantly
fighting against by promoting "tort reform" which, as you know, is another
way to disempower the average citizen and take away his or her right to
sue corporations who damage them or cause death.

And the Bush Supreme Court will be anti-environment and side with the
exploiters and polluters who so willingly sacrifice the public health and
safety on the alter of short term profit.

THE DEFICIT AND THE MIDDLE CLASS

While Gore intends to use the surplus to pay down the deficit, Bush plans to
refund a large part of it to the wealthy.  He says it's their money and they
should get it back.  Well, it's their deficit as well and they should help pay it
off.

At this time the nation is almost five trillion six hundred billion dollars in the
red.  That's $5,600,000,000,000.   Over the past ten years we have paid
over three trillion dollars in interest.  This year we will pay an estimated
three hundred and sixty-two billion dollars in interest.  That's
$362,000,000,000, Mr. Nader.  About $1,400 for every man woman and
child in this country.  Do you have any idea what that amount of money
could do for the environment and health care and education if it was not
being wasted on interest?

Next year we will pay even more.  And the years after that still more. And
instead of paying down the deficit it will grow larger.  Why?  So Bill Gates
and Paul Allen and all the other multimillionaires can have their much
needed tax brakes.   And if Bush is elected and then inheritance tax is
eliminated, the middle class will be asked to make up the hundreds of
billions of dollars in those lost revenues as well.

THE ENVIRONMENT

As governor of Texas Bush has put the polluters in charge of the state's
environmental program with the result that Texas is now an environmental
disaster.  Although he doesn't dare articulate it during the campaign, the
Republican agenda includes doing away with the Environmental Protection
Agency.  If it's not eliminated completely it will be emasculated to the point
where it exists in name only.

And in service of his major contributors, the Oil and Coal conglomerates,
Bush and the Republicans will encourage oil exploration in environmentally
sensitive areas and the burning of fossil fuels to produce electricity etc. If
you think global warming is bad now, just give a Bush administration a few
years to pay of its debt to these special interests.

And whether you want to admit it or not, Mr. Nader, Al Gore has been one
of the strongest advocates for environmental protection.  He recognized the
danger of global warming before most people had heard the term. And he
almost single handedly, and against the advice of all his political advisors,
saved the Kyoto Accords.  But a rabid Republican Congress has blocked
their implementation along with almost every other environmental effort put
forth by the Clinton Administration.  You're correct. Clinton/Gore haven't got
a lot done.  But if you'd been president these past eight years, neither
would you.

CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM

You warn us of the growing power and influence of the corporations on our
lives and our democracy yet you threaten to help defeat the only candidate
with any chance of doing the one thing that will help solve this problem.  You
know Bush and the Republicans will not support Campaign Finance
Reform.  But Gore has promised that he will work with John McCain in his
mission to bring about the reform we need.  Why on earth would you
actively work to keep

 From staff and wire reports
 LIMA, Peru -- President Alberto Fujimori has replaced the three heads of the
 Peruvian armed forces amid questions about their loyalty and rumors of a
plot
 to restore ousted spy master Vladimiro Montesinos.
 Fujimori told reporters Saturday the three officers resigned. "There
would be
 no authentic democratization if the armed forces and police had not made
this
 enormous sacrifice, this enormous patriotic gesture," he said.
 In the navy, Adm. Antonio Ibarcena was replaced by Adm. Victor Ramos Ormeno.
 Gen. Elesvan Bello was replaced by Gen. Carlos Balarezo as the air force
 commander. Gen. Walter Chacon, who had served as the interior minister,
 replaces Jose Villanueva Ruesta as chief commander of the army.
 Gen. Fernando Dianderas becomes interior minister. The only Cabinet
member to
 retain his position is Defense Minister Carlos Bergamino.
 Journalist Claudia Cisneros told CNN from Lima that the move by Fujimori was
 seen as a genuine attempt to further democratize Peru. Although the
 replacements as leaders of the country's armed forces were former Montesinos
 supporters, they were also moderates.
 Talks disrupted
 Fujimori's grip on power has been in doubt since Montesinos' return on
Monday
 from Panama, where he had sought asylum after being caught on videotape
 apparently bribing a congressman.
 The bribery scandal was followed by Fujimori's announcement that he would
 step down next year. But Montesinos' return disrupted talks on democratic
 reform between the government and opposition and forced the president to
 reassure his countrymen he was in control.
 Before Saturday's resignations, he had already transferred five colonels
from
 their posts. He also led a highly visible manhunt for Montesinos this week.
 The former intelligence chief has not been seen since he returned and many
 analysts suspect members of the military are sheltering him.
 Montesinos has claimed all he wants now is to live quietly as a private
 lawyer and to avoid public intrigue. Few believe he is telling the truth.
 On Saturday, Peru's Attorney General Blanca Nelida Colan -- a Montesinos
 loyalist -- appeared to bow to public pressure by assigning three new
 prosecutors to investigate Montesinos on a range of criminal complaints from
 torture and death squad killings to corruption and money laundering.
 Colan also removed from the case a prosecutor who critics charged had
 whitewashed a 1997 probe of systematic phone-tapping by Montesinos'
 intelligence organization.
 Money laundering probed
 The prosecutors will investigate allegations that Montesinos laundered money
 from a drug trafficker who testified in 1996 that he had given Montesinos
 $50,000 a month for the use of an airstrip.
 The former spy chief will also be investigated as the man responsible for
the
 November 1991 murders of 15 people, including an 8-year-old boy, in a
 tenement building in Lima's squalid Barrios Altos district; and for the
 death-squad executions a year later of nine students and a lecturer at La
 Cantuta, a poor public university on Lima's outskirts.
 In a radio interview from his secret hideout, Montesinos on Tuesday denied
 involvement in either massacre.
 Legal experts believe the former spy master will find it difficult to hide
 from international justice. Already shunned by Latin American countries,
 Montesinos has found that the world has become smaller for alleged torturers
 and murderers since former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet was arrested in
 Britain two years ago on the orders of a Spanish judge.
 'Lot of money, nowhere to go'
 Robert Varenik, director of the protection program at the New York-based
 Lawyers Committee for Human Rights, said, "What is really clear is that
 Montesinos' options have narrowed, Fujimori's options have narrowed and the
 options for Montesinos to get around the law are limited."
 Martin Belaunde, dean of Peru's college of lawyers, said the former spy
chief
 "has a lot of money but nowhere to go.
 "I don't know how many countries would like to receive him," he said.
 One of Montesinos' most promising options disappeared earlier this week when
 Venezuela declined to take him. Morocco and Iraq have been offered as
 possibilities.
 Lawyers said that if Montesinos left Peru he would essentially face life in
 "rogue states" that cared little about flouting international law, such as a
 1984 convention obliging states to try alleged torturers.
