[CTRL] UN to stop bread for poor
-Caveat Lector- By Sayed Salahuddin http://dailynews.yahoo.com/htx/nm/20010614/wl/afghan_un_dc_4.html KABUL (Reuters) - The U.N. World Food Program said on Thursday it would stop supplying bread to the Afghan capital's poor on Friday because talks with the Taliban rulers on employing women for a survey had failed. WFP director for Afghanistan Gerard Van Dijk said he was disappointed by the Taliban's rejection of a WFP proposal for employing local women to conduct the survey. Bakeries supplying subsidized bread to nearly 300,000 poor people would stop work after the last distribution on Friday. ``Negotiations have failed,'' he told Reuters. ``They did not accept our proposal. There is no other way out except closing the bakeries.'' Van Dijk said the WFP had proposed female staff of the Taliban's Public Health Ministry and a group of WFP-selected women conduct the survey to identify the real beneficiaries of the project. But officials from Afghanistan purist Taliban movement, which controls most of Afghanistan, insisted that only women recommended by the Taliban be permitted to carry out the survey, he said. Van Dijk said the bakeries could reopen any time after the Taliban accepts the WFP proposal. ``There is a way if there is a will. We will restart the program whenever they allow us to do the survey.'' He said U.N. agencies in Kabul had taken precautions in view of possible food riots after the bakeries are shut down. PRECAUTIONS ABOUT PROTESTS ``We are taking a low profile, reducing our movement in the city in the face of the occurrence of possible problems.'' The WFP had said earlier it would halt its program to supply cheap bread to nearly 300,000 widows, invalids and other vulnerable people in Kabul if the Taliban refused to allow it to hire Afghan women. Under Taliban directives, only women can enter homes to interview other women. Van Dijk said earlier on Thursday that the Taliban proposal, and a suggestion that the WFP hire females who speak the local language from neighboring countries, were costly or impractical. ``Bringing people from other places requires more costs. Some options are practical and some are less practical. We hope to go to houses to find the needy people and for that we have to employ local women ourselves,'' he added. The Taliban has refused to allow the WFP to hire local women on the grounds that female employment is banned. Many aid groups see a contradiction in the ruling that the WFP cannot employ women for the survey, but can use the Taliban's own female staff for the purpose. The hardline Islamic Taliban has said it will not reverse its decision and does not care if all U.N. aid to the devastated country is halted. It has appealed to Islamic countries to fill any gap that results and says the United Nations is using aid as a political weapon. WFP beneficiaries say closure of the bakeries would force more people to resort to begging and increase hunger at a time the country faces its worst drought in 30 years. ``What will befall my five children if I lose the subsidized bread?'' a woman asked. ``Who will feed them? We have lived for years on bread and tea mostly and if the bread is taken away, maybe we will starve,'' the desperate woman, clutching her all-enveloping burqa, said outside a bakery. ``This subsidized bread is my only hope after Allah. I think neither the Taliban nor the WFP care about us. They all follow their own policies and we may perish in the middle,'' another woman said. ``Many needy people like us will be forced to beg.''

[CTRL] Canada's Military Exports linked to human/labour abuses (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- Online report links data on Canada's Military Exports to human/labour abuses This year, the annual report of the Coalition to Oppose the Arms Trade (COAT) is entitled: Canada's Military Exports: Fuelling wars and abusing international human/labour rights. It is now available online at the COAT web site: http://www.ncf.ca/coat/ This detailed report provides data on Canada's military exports (between 1990 and 1999) and documents some of the ways in which the federal government is actively encouraging domestic corporations to export a wide range of military equipment to many of the world's most violent and abusive regimes. The report juxtaposes this data on Canada's military exports with summaries of armed conflicts, human rights violations and abuses of labour rights by the same governments that are purchasing Canadian military components and weapons systems. (Statistics published in the latest annual report of the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT) are compared with information from the annual reports of Amnesty International, the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions and many other sources.) Also included is information on how the Canadian government is encouraging Canadian businesses to take advantage of lucrative investment opportunities in various export processing zones (EPZs) in the same Third World countries where Canada is exporting military and police equipment. Unions, collective bargaining and strikes are completely outlawed in such EPZs. Canadian firms can therefore import extremely inexpensive products from exploitative sweatshops in EPZs because strikes and non-violent protests are suppressed by police and military forces that are, in part, armed by Canadian corporations. The link between Canada's profitable, subsidized military industries and their exports to dozens of repressive regimes which abuse labour and other human rights has long been a major focus of the work of the Coalition to Oppose the Arms Trade.

[CTRL] RUBY RIDGE: BILL OF RIGHTS ENFORCEMENT IS NOW THE ONLY HEALING (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- ALERT FROM JEWS FOR THE PRESERVATION OF FIREARMS OWNERSHIP America's Aggressive Civil Rights Organization (Subscribe/UnSubscribe instructions near the end of the message) June 15, 2001 RUBY RIDGE: BILL OF RIGHTS ENFORCEMENT IS NOW THE ONLY HEALING A week after a federal appeals court miraculously gave the go-ahead for prosecution of Ruby Ridge sniper Lon Horiuchi on charges of involuntary manslaughter, hopes for justice have been dashed again - not by arrogant federal officials, but by the very people who just won that victory. As the *Chicago Tribune* reported June 15, 2001, Boundary County, Idaho, prosecutor Brett Benson decided not to press charges, claiming that the case against Horiuchi for the killing of Vicki Weaver would be difficult to prove in court (absurd, given the amount of documentation and testimony available). Unbelievably, Benson also announced, It is our hope that this decision will begin the healing process that is so long overdue. Do we heal after crimes by letting criminals walk free? Would healing in the Oklahoma City bombing case have been achieved by letting Timothy McVeigh and other perpetrators walk free while survivors suffered? Does a woman heal from a rape because a prosecutor lets her attacker walk? Does a homeowner heal when he learns officials had the thief in their grasp and let him go? Does anyone, including Brett Benson, actually believe such cruel and callous nonsense? Certainly others involved in the case don't believe it. As the *Tribune* reported: Attorney Stephen Yagman of Los Angeles, who was appointed by Benson's predecessor as special prosecutor in the case, was angered at Benson's decision. 'In order for me to agree to drop these charges, someone would have had to kill me first,' Yagman said from his Los Angeles office. 'It was done without consulting me, sneakily and behind my back.' Yagman spoke with Randy Weaver who he described as chagrined but willing to stay the course to get justice. There appears to be only one hope left. Since Idaho has no statute of limitations on homicide, some future prosecutor with more integrity could yet re-file charges against Horiuchi. There is only one form of healing that will work now: Enforce the Bill of Rights. Return freedom to America, so that the powerful can no longer stomp at will on the liberties of ordinary men and women. Hold federal officials as accountable for their deeds as any other citizens. Stop regarding them as a privileged class, immune from the laws that bind the rest of us. Whatever the future holds for Lon Hoiruchi, strict and diligent Bill of Rights Enforcement is the only thing that can save the future of America. This summer, a new book by Claire Wolfe and Aaron Zelman will blow the lid off the coming American police state. *The State vs. the People* will show exactly what makes a country a police state. (It's not random acts of government brutality; it's a sophisticated system of government control with brutality as one lever of power.) The book will show why America is not yet a police state - but why it's almost certain to become one if we don't reverse direction SOON. In the meantime, despite the beauties of Boundary County, Idaho, we suggest you don't spend any of your vacation dollars there and that you tell county officials why. The responsibility for this decision wasn't Brett Benson's alone. His deed came as no surprise, since county voters elected him knowing he had no enthusiasm for bringing the FBI sniper to justice.

[CTRL] US finds itself embroiled in Yemen (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- US finds itself embroiled in Yemen: After the attack on USS Cole that left 19 American sailors dead, the US is trying to assert its ideals of democracy. Robin Allen reports Financial Times; Jun 14, 2001 By ROBIN ALLEN http://globalarchive.ft.com/globalarchive/articles.html?id=010614001605query=Robin+Allen When the giant Lockheed C-5 Galaxy landed at Aden's decrepit Khormaksar airport, disgorging US marines, FBI agents and their assorted vehicles, a local journalist said Yemenis understood what it meant to be invaded by a superpower. Three days earlier - on October 12 last year - terrorists had attacked the American warship USS Cole as it was refuelling in Aden harbour, killing 19 US sailors and injuring more than 30. The US was in shock. Yemen waited. Far from cutting its losses, as some Yemenis hoped, the US dug in - deeper. Now, some analysts say the American presence amounts to its boldest and most hazardous attempt to date to assert its ideals of unity and democracy on to an impoverished Arab state. In 1994, when Yemen descended into civil war, the US was the only country to give unequivocal backing to President Ali Abdullah Saleh. After a nationwide referendum in 1990 led to the unification of conservative North Yemen with the once Marxist and Soviet-aligned South Yemen, secessionists in the south almost succeeded in tearing the new nation apart. The argument in Washington ran this way: in spite of what were perceived as past misdeeds, such as backing Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, Yemen had to be united to be viable. A fractured Yemen would have led to regional instability. There is a genuine sense in Washington that if the US does not try to help Yemen, it will break up, says one western diplomat in the capital Sana'a. US involvement in Yemen was also about supporting democracy - one of the few functioning, if sometimes stumbling, democracies in the entire region. Washington's support is not, by its own standards, particularly extensive, but for a country like Yemen - whose 19m people have an average annual income of less than Dollars 500 - it is considerable, both in material and moral terms. Grant aid, which did not exist four years ago, reached Dollars 50m last year. In addition, the US has consistently supported International Monetary Fund backing of several hundred million dollars over the past six years. There is also a small US military advisory team. But in Yemen, foreign involvement has a tradition of backfiring on both parties. Many Yemenis see history being repeated, with the Americans following the experience of the British who, after arriving in 1839, were gradually sucked into southern Yemen's ancient tribal rivalries until forced to withdraw in 1967. Yemen's mountains provide ideal refuge for Islamic extremists and militant Arab-Afghanis, some of them followers of Osama bin Laden. According to a former interior minister, more than 29,000 Arab-Afghanis came to Yemen to fight for the north in the civil war. The southern rebels, former Marxists until the collapse of the Soviet bloc in 1989, are still regarded as un-Islamic. Many of these militants are still there, guests of the tribal sheikhs and Islamists who oppose Mr Saleh. Their kindred spirits took out the USS Cole. Some American commentators point to Mr Saleh's new cabinet, which, they say, reflects his commitment to domestic administrative and judicial reforms. Its members are young and educated, mostly in their 40s and with nine doctorate degrees among its 35 members, including the country's first woman minister. They have real authority, says one commentator. But many Yemeni analysts are less sanguine. Mr Saleh's cabinet, they argue, is a mere shakshukah, a Yemeni-style scrambled eggs of previous cabinets, whose members do the president's bidding, or they give up and resign. Cabinet authority, they add, is further eroded by a dysfunctional civil service, undermined by widespread corruption and compromised by the US connection. Further aggravating matters are the scores of officially encouraged American non-governmental organisations, many of them with large numbers of women workers, who during the past two elections supervised Yemeni tribesmen on the finer points of voting. Yemen's Islamist opposition, the Islah (Reform) party, plays on all these weaknesses. Much of its support comes from the belief among many Yemenis that foreigners are behind the central government and its failure to provide basic social and economic services. The government, said one former minister, has two years to prove itself. But if reform efforts falter, and if the government then tries to rig votes at the next general elections, we could see internal strife on the scale of 1994. Or worse, according to one Yemeni analyst, Yemen could become another Algeria, where more than 100,000 people have been killed in civil strife in the last five years. The president is at least trying, says one US analyst in Sana'a. For our

[CTRL] Over a quarter-million federal workers fail to pay taxes
http://www.knoxstudio.com/shns/story.cfm?pk=DEADBEATS-06-15-01cat=WW Over a quarter-million federal workers fail to pay taxes By LANCE GAY Scripps Howard News Service June 15, 2001 WASHINGTON - IRS records show that 340,000 federal government employees or retirees getting government pensions last year owed a total of $2.5 billion in unpaid taxes. That number includes 2,975 federal workers who were employed by the IRS itself, which operates under a 1998 law that says IRS employees can be reprimanded if they are found making an intentional error that results in underpayment of taxes, or fired if they are found to be negligent in paying their taxes. All federal employees are currently covered by ethics laws, adopted in 1992, that require them to pay their taxes as a condition of their continued employment. Employees shall satisfy in good faith their obligations as citizens, including all just financial obligations, especially those such as federal, state or local taxes that are imposed by law, the regulations state. A review of IRS records, conducted by the congressional General Accounting Office this year, found that the rate of noncompliance among more than 8 million federal employees and retirees was about 5 percent. There was a 7 percent noncompliance rate among the general public. The IRS estimates the total of unpaid taxes is $240 billion. Jeffrey Steinhoff, managing director for the GAO's financial management staff, noted there are more stringent requirements for federal employees than for the general public. If the general public perceives that federal workers and annuitants can successfully evade their tax obligations, voluntary compliance - the foundation of the U.S. tax system - could be eroded, he said. The GAO said the lack of any regular federal withholding of income taxes on federal retirement checks seems to be the reason that 20 percent of federal retirees failed to file. The retirees accounted for 54 percent of the total number of tax delinquents among federal employees. Among the findings: - 36 percent of the cases were delinquent for more than one year. - 29 percent of the cases involved $1.4 billion in uncollected taxes assessed before 1995. - About 2,300 government employees or retirees had been found willfully responsible for failing to pay the proper amount of taxes, resulting in a total of $155 million in IRS penalty assessments. One of these cases involved a federal retiree who failed to send in withholding taxes collected from employees of two businesses he ran. Rep. Jim Turner, R-Texas, who requested the report, said while the federal tax evasion rate is lower than the general public, it's not low enough. These are the same people that are getting monthly paychecks from the government, and yet they have managed to skip out on their taxes. A private business would never stand for this, and the government needs to strive for that same efficiency, he said. IRS Commissioner Charles Rossotti said his agency last year streamlined the accounting procedures for federal employees, and is looking at new educational programs to reduce tax delinquency rates among federal employees. story.cfmpk=DEADBEATS-06-15-01=WW.url
[CTRL] Gun for Hire (Fwd)
-Caveat Lector- http://spotlight.org/05_17_01/Gun_for_Hire/gun_for_hire.html Gun for Hire Folks familiar with the downfall of the once-respected Institute for Historical Review (IHR), taken over in 1994 by a profit-mad gang of lawyers and parasites, may think of Greg Raven as merely a common gunsel and thug. But this would be wrong. He's more-or less-as the case may be. It now turns out that Raven's denials that he is a paid agent of the Church of Scientology may be true. In fact, it may be true that no real Church of Scientology exists. It has come to light that this organization is actually owned by a group of lawyers, most of whom are not even Scientologists! The record shows that Scientology, its names, trademarks, copyrights, logos-even including LRH, the initials of its founder-L. Ron Hubbard-are the property of a separate corporation, Religious Technology Center, Inc. (RTC). And RTC is completely separate from Scientology. It receives fees, commissions and payments every time that the sect's names appear in any of the printed material it puts out. RTC is hidden in a corporate maze. It lists its official address in care of a little professional mail drop at 419 Larchmont Avenue in Los Angeles called Village Mail Call. And yet this obscure corporation owns the multi-million dollar Scientology empire! How many veteran followers of L. Ron Hubbard know this? The board of directors of RTC is composed of lawyers for the most part, few if any of whom are Scientologists. One of these is Lawrence E. Heller, a longtime Scientology lawyer. Significantly, Heller was also the lawyer for Mel Mermelstein, the holocaust survivor who sued the IHR and Liberty Lobby for millions of dollars in 1991. In the courtroom, Mermelstein's performance was so poor that the judge dismissed his suit before the trial. At this, Heller lost his mind and physically attacked Liberty Lobby's attorney, Mark Lane, who had (easily) made Mermelstein look like a fool. The entire entertaining and revealing story is covered in Michael Collins Piper's book, Best Witness.* Here is the legal notice and Heller Co. requires be printed in every publication issued by Scientology: It is reprinted from International Scientology News magazine issue No. 16, released in May, 2001 by Church of Scientology International, 6331 Hollywood Blvd., Suite 801, Los Angeles, CA 90028-6300.

[CTRL] Fwd: David Horowitz: A One-Man Plague
http://www.americanpolitics.com/editorialbydate.html Is Salon.com playing Russian Roulette? David Horowitz: A One-Man Plague on American Values By Jeff Koopersmith Thursday, June 13, 2001 - Palm Beach (APJP) -- As a political commentator for nigh on twenty years now, I've seldom come across a bigger blowhard than David Horowitz, who today finds himself happy as a clam pumping his Neonazi rhetoric into the veins of age-young Americans stupid enough to believe anything they read, courtesy of Salon Magazine. However, his latest trash -- THE PLAGUE ABETTORS -- served up by the ever-astounding bad taste of this well-known Internet rag -- only rivals the on-air swill of Rush Limbaugh and online dreck of professional he-bitch Camille Paglia. In fact, it drove me to my keyboard so that I could ream him a new journalistic orifice. If I ever actually meet this bastard, I promise to clonk his chubby bearded head in as many places as possible before the Gestapo rips me off him. THE PLAGUE ABETTORS is a George-DumbBellYuh-Bush-kind-of-tribute memorializing the 20th anniversary of the onset of AIDS in the United States. Whoever came up with such an event -- even if it was a leader in the gay community -- should have their heads examined; so stupid is it to celebrate or even decry the disease that has killed so many of our brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers and friends -- and with some fictional anniversary date. But leave it to pudgy Horowitz to seize the opportunity in order to display the sad fact that he outshines even Goering in his ability to lie and twist the truth into something desecrate except in Hades. Horowitz gleefully points out that AIDS levels are reaching the epidemic proportions of the late 1980s and are highest amongst blacks and Hispanics. He doesn't bother to explain that this is likely because blacks and Hispanics are undereducated -- by fiat from a decade of a Republican-controlled Congress -- and that most young people populating this underclass seem to give up on life before the age of nine, so stunned are they by the poverty and paucity of opportunity that yet surrounds them. Horowitz twists statistics with the artfulness of Adolf Eichmann. He tells us that 50 percent of the AIDS-dead are blacks and Hispanics -- but when the epidemic was young, only 10% were members of minorities. Of course, gay men and women have always counted themselves as a minority and well they should. They have certainly been treated similarly, and sometimes worse than ex-slaves and the men and women our proud farmers use as slave labor in the fields of California and Texas today. The worst aspect of Horowitz's sleazy diatribe is that the period he writes of witnessed less than one thousand cases nationwide. Horowitz cautions us that this month, we may learn that all the research done over the past two decades has not yet produced a vaccine for AIDS. Naturally, he fails to point out that the AIDS survival rate is at an all time high nonetheless. He calls the higher AIDS infection count (among a greater population, I remind you) a failure which HE predicted at the very outset of the epidemic -- and then applauds himself for writing about that prediction at the time. Horowitz, of course, was at the time most likely cooking up a palatable scheme to lock all homosexuals in camps a la Americans of Japanese heritage during World War II. He cloaks this subliminal scheme in the assertion that AIDS should have been handled through public health methods. Let's examine those methods -- as Horowitz reports them. He claims that gay activists blocked any and all tried and true methods used by public health agencies to combat epidemics through the ages. He sneers at the education campaigns favored by a gay community that had already been besieged by the minions within the Reagan Administration at the time, and their fear that the federal government would step in and begin to control their lives. Horowitz wants us to believe that Democrats and what he depicts as those filthy gay activists were actually able to dictate their formulae to Ronald Reagan and the conservative-leaning federal department heads and secretaries he controlled. Naturally, this is premeditated nonsense. Reagan was himself a gentle man who had little or nothing to do with AIDS policy -- in fact, he may well have been oblivious to the problem. Nancy Reagan was privately stunned and profoundly saddened not only by the growing AIDS statistics but by the loss of friends in the arts, couture, and film. Meanwhile, George H. Bush and the rest of the morons from Connecticut-via-Texas quietly celebrated with their football-jerseyed sons as one after another gay man fell six feet into a dirt ditch. Horowitz, in an amusing jaunt into Left Wing Conspiracy Lunacy, claims that public health officials gave gays and the Democrats a veto over the correct methodologies they had chosen to fight this terrible killer and colluded in subverting the system that had
[CTRL] Fwd: Day care worker faces sex assault charges
http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/166/metro/Day_care_worker_faces_sex_assaul t_chargesP.shtml Day care worker faces sex assault charges State shuts Revere center By Chris Frates, and Catherine E. Holahan, Globe Correspondents 6/15/2001 A 56-year-old Revere day care center employee was charged yesterday with sexually assaulting two sisters, age 5 and 6, who were placed in his care, prompting state child safety officials to shut the center down. Jaime Rincon was arraigned in Chelsea District Court on two counts each of rape, indecent assault, and battery of a child. He pleaded not guilty. Rincon, who most recently passed a criminal background check in September 1999, is the longtime boyfriend of Nubia Vargas, the owner of the center, which has operated from Vargas's two-family home on Revere Street since 1996. Authorities yesterday said the alleged assaults took place between June 2000 and this month, but they did not specify how many times. They accused Rincon of performing oral sex on one of the sisters while the other one ''was present and watched.'' Rincon was arrested by Revere police Wednesday night after one of the girls told her mother of the alleged assaults, prosecutors said. ''They said they had a secret they had to keep,'' said Lisa Dreitlein, the assistant Suffolk County district attorney prosecuting the case. The children are currently in their mother's care, she said. Rincon, who was held on $250,000 cash bail, was sent to Bridgewater State Hospital for a 15-day psychiatric examination, which will determine if he is competent to stand trial. Afterward, the state Office of Child Care Services suspended Vargas's license to provide day care services, said Kate Arsenault, a spokeswoman. Vargas may appeal the suspension within five days, she said, after which the department will determine if the center's license should be revoked permanently. Arsenault said she could not comment on whether such charges, although not leveled at Vargas personally, would result in license revocation. But she did say the charges are serious. ''We take a handful of legal actions every year, and in my [three-year] tenure here, I have never seen charges this egregious,'' Arsenault said. ''This is very, very rare, and parents should know that.'' Rincon, who authorities said is an immigrant who came from Colombia 17 years ago, was the state-approved assistant at the center. In addition to passing a criminal background check, he was required to have training in cardiopulminary resusitation and first aid, and attended a child care orientation. In September 1999, three years after Vargas first opened her unnamed center, Vargas was approved to run a ''large family'' center that could care for up to 10 children, Arsenault said. Large family providers are required to employ an assistant. All people living in home-based day care centers are required by state law to submit to criminal background checks, she said. Since Vargas opened her business, she had been the subject of one minor complaint, which uncovered a minor record-keeping violation, Arsenault said. Martha DiBartolomeo, a neighbor of Rincon and Vargas, said the allegations were shocking and appalling. ''You can't have day care anymore in private homes. They can get away with more there,'' she said. Maria Flores, another neighbor, said ''thank God'' that she lived with her extended family, allowing her to avoid putting her children in day care under Rincon's watch. ''I will never let my kids go inside that house,'' Flores said. This story was written by Raphael Lewis of the Globe's staff.

How nice. No firings. No heads are rolling. Just like when the Communist governments in Eastern Europe and Russia fell in 1989, and all the communists turned up the next morning running the various countries as Social Democrats, or whatever. On an appearance on Your World with Neil Cavuto last night on FOX Cable Network, Patrick J. Buchanan ticked off the background of some of the European Leaders President Bush attending meetings with this week --- this one was a Trotskyite 20 years ago, this one ran with that socialist gang, and so on, and so on . . . As we stated at the time (see our November 2000 e-wires in the Daily E-Wire Section at votefraud.org), the entire election night scenario was orchestrated by Voter News Service, one or more of the computer players providing or manipulating software in Florida and elsehwere, those running the 5 Big TV Networks who told their anchors to read the Voter News Service projections. and other parties unknown. The Network Anchors proved that they are just the guys and gals who read what they are handed on TV, all of them apologizing for what happened. OReilly of FOX was the most forthright, saying he was sorry he read the Voter News Service projections. On the other hand, I doubt if OReilly among the best of those on air at the Big TV Networks will be making Voter News Service one of his ongoing investigations. (You have to come to votefraud.org for that much of the truth remember, -- we start where Rush Limbaughs unstoppable pursuit of truth leaves off.) For new readers, the Big TV Networks prepare our minds for months before an election, with mysteriously done public opinion polls. The corrupt crew at Voter News Service a joint effort of ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, FOX an AP wire, -- in New York City provide Exit Polls as soon as the polls close and the Big TV Networks announce them to prepare our minds for what the pre-programmed, and -- easily rigged, -- computers will tell us a few hours later. It is no shock that the 5 Big TV Networks, those dutiful mouthpieces of the Shadow government, are sticking with their jointly owned corporation are sticking with their creation Voter News Service. But -- I am a little surprised though that there wasnt at least a show of firing somebody. The Big TV Networks have never offered a coherent explanation for WHY Voter News Service misinformed them all several times on Election Night 2000. How could they? Any analysis of how Voter News Service does its job would begin to reveal the absurdity of being able to call close elections at all. A good treatment of this is in the book Votescam by the Colliers in chapters 13 and 16 entitled A Piece of the Puzzle and The Thirteenth Floor and on votefraud.org in our January 23, 2000 e-wire, Senator Grassley Spills the Beans how it really works! Veteran readers of this e-wire are familiar with how in 1996, the 5 Big Networks, all taking their exit poll info from Voter News Service, accurately called EVERY computer counted race correctly for Senate, Governor, and President in each state BUT BUT got the only close race in a HAND COUNTED state WRONG. All of the 4 Big TV Networks (FOX didnt exist yet) called Sen. Bob Smith the loser in the US Senate race in New Hampshire. However, when the HAND COUNTED VOTES from the outlying areas of New Hampshire (70% of the state) were counted Senator Smith in fact won re-election. Conclusion: Voter News Service cannot predict results reliably in handcounted races, even while they predict infallibly when dealing with COMPUTER generated election results. Appearing on C-Span in 1999 for an interview, Senator Bob Smith stated with a chuckle in regard to his 1996 Senate race that all the Network anchors had to eat crow, and that they looked good eating crow. He then offered up this super profound line: They forgot that in New Hampshire we count the votes before we declare the winner. We at Citizens for a Fair Vote Count have this interview on tape, and showed it

http://www.nytimes.com/2001/06/16/national/16CICE.html?ex=993692875ei=1en= 9f53c9966273b021 June 16, 2001 3 Officials Charged With Corruption in Al Capone's Old Fief By JOHN W. FOUNTAIN CICERO, Ill., June 15 The top official of this Chicago suburb where Al Capone once reigned was arrested by federal agents today along with a former police chief and a former town treasurer, all accused of making Cicero a personal piggy bank by siphoning off more than $10 million from the town's insurance program. The authorities described an elaborate scheme, involving in part a man with ties to the Chicago Mafia, that prosecutors said was set up by Frank Maltese, a convicted mob bookmaker who died nine years ago and was the husband of Betty Loren- Maltese, who as town president was the leading official seized today. The United States attorney's office said Ms. Loren-Maltese and the two other members of the town's insurance committee had regularly sent payments from the health insurance fund to its unlicensed insurance administrator, a firm called Specialty Risk Consultants, or SRC. Much of that money, the authorities said, was then eventually kicked back to the officials, who used it to buy a hotel complete with golf course in northern Wisconsin, an Indiana horse farm, a vacation home and cars. Some of the proceeds remain unaccounted for, the officials said. The Associated Press Betty Loren-Maltese, the town president of Cicero, Ill., with her lawyer, Terry Gillespie, on Friday in Chicago. The authorities expressed amazement at the extent of the corruption that they said had infested Cicero in this latest episode of a town afflicted for decades by mob influence. We've had cases where organized crime has paid money to public officials to allow organized crime activities to occur, said United States Attorney Scott R. Lassar, speaking at a morning news conference to announce the indictment of Ms. Loren-Maltese and nine others. But this is the first time where there has essentially been a looting of a town and organized crime influence has been alleged to be involved in that looting of the town. Mr. Lassar said municipal officials had used their mob connections to turn the town of Cicero into a personal piggy bank. With the arrests, said Kathleen McChesney, the head of the Chicago office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Cicero candy store is closed. The indictment charges the 10 accused with racketeering conspiracy, fraud, money laundering and tax offenses. Ms. Loren-Maltese herself is charged with racketeering, wire fraud, mail fraud and filing a false tax return. If convicted, she could face up to 20 years in prison on each of the most serious charges, involving racketeering and fraud. The indictment says that from April 1992 to March 1997, Cicero paid $33 million to SRC, the insurance administration firm, based in northwest suburban Schaumburg. Over the course of that time, the indictment says, Cicero's insurance committee Ms. Loren-Maltese, Police Chief Emil Schullo and Treasurer Joseph DeChicio authorized payment of $28 million to the firm without the approval of the town board as required by ordinance. Of that $28 million, more than $10 million is said to have been stolen. Besides the three officials who made up the insurance committee, those charged today are Michael Spano Sr., described by the authorities as having mob ties and a hidden controlling interest in SRC; his son, Michael Spano Jr., controller of the firm; John LaGiglio, also said to have had an interest in the firm; his wife, Bonnie LaGiglio, a general partner and manager of the Wisconsin hotel that the accused are said to have bought; Gregory Ross, an accountant for Mr. LaGiglio, the elder Mr. Spano and the firm; Charles Schneider, a lawyer for Mr. LaGiglio and the elder Mr. Spano, as well as tax preparer for Ms. Loren-Maltese; and Frank Taylor, who was hired to manage the firm but who the authorities said was now cooperating with them. Eight of the 10 defendants were arrested today. Mr. Schneider was out of town but is expected to surrender on Monday, and Mr. Taylor is in prison for an unrelated federal tax fraud conviction in Minnesota. All eight of those arrested were later released, either on personal recognizance or on secured bond. Ms. Loren-Maltese, arrested at her home in Indiana, secured a $100,000 bond with her house here in Cicero.

[CTRL] My Little Heap of Rocks In Ireland
And the story in the Irish News and their reflections on the American people - do we get such praise out of Israel? Any praise from them we paid for at tune of billions of dollars every year.but then the Irish have always had their pride. Prudy be sure to pull up my humble roots and John Fitzerald Kennedy's roots through Rose Fitzgerald for the Pope knew who he was. Well Prudy the above shows a picture of my ancestors in Limerick.women always did get it in the neck, didn;t they. Consider in America, the Kennedy Family - the Mother was a Princess in the Catholic Church, and her sons were systematically slaughtered..all of them but one, who escaped death twice but none could compare to John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Our lines were the same - Rose Fitzgerald and my family had the same ancestors on my mother's side..so this is the brick pile but it is still claimed by the Fitzgerald family - or one of them anyway - Now the 7 Fitzgeralds were slaughtered, hanged drawn an quartered by King Henry, for he feared his throne and greatness - the Fitzgeralds were known as the good Fitzgeraldsone escaped to France in this vicious vendetta - Gerald of Og, was first Fitzgerald and I would of course if I could lay claim to this heap of old rocks even though now they have gone into a catering to peasant class to make an honest living. So what England did to the Irish Fitzgeralds - America did to the John Fitzgerald Kennedy famly and we carried the same blood line and this on my father's side...old new American families were they say very close knit and it was just 30 years ago, that I discovered the Mafia once owned all the quarries in Cleveland area - and hey, that was my family. So now here is an item from the Irish Newspapers...no matter how poor the Irish are they will always have a certain amount of class that comes with good breeding and no doubt the Catholic Church instills a lot of pride even to this day in Ireland though still persecuted by the likes of an Ian Paisley but there will always be another Bernadette Devin (love that name) to come along and raise the flag for Irish Freedom..the Irish knew who John Fitzgerald Kennedy was - for his ancestors and mine at one time battled for the title of Al Ri.(see Earl of Wexford's book for more on this background) So these men were all brave, tall and Lord Thomas had red brown hair, gray eyes, and every 7 years it is said he still rides a big white horse across the countryside - for he arises out of the lake in Limerick on a horse with silver heelswhen heels wear down he gets all his estates back stolen from the Irish by the peasant Kings. Nice story here for you see the Irish are about the only ones who seemingly appreciate what America has done over the years.Jews want all those reparations and gold - they forget 55 million people died in WWII..Colin Kelly was first pilot to lose live, we had Commando Kelly, we had the Sullivan Brothers all died on a great ship, we had Audie Murphy an we also had a Fitzgerald in the Civil War who fought for the United States of the Confederacy. Then we had the USS Liberty to - Isaeli's Contribution and thanks expressed back in 1968?Hit and run.. Saba I still have my great great grandmother's solid silver tea set - it is a family treasure and the only thing she brought to America - she was kicked out of her family after marrying her tutor - a Walsh but the Walsh Mountains legend is they fed 5000 people at one time.. So Prudy be sure to pick up under subject matter the heap of ronce mine, for this was once mine if you believe in reincaration/ - on my father's side and there was a Fitzgerald Cursethat came with the titlesonly way to overthrown a Fitzgerald was to kill them The 20th century belongs to America Over the past 100 years, the American people have sustained Western civilisation by acts of courage, generosity and vision unparalleled in world history, writes Harold Evans, in the opening essay of a 10-week Irish Times series on the 20th century. Less than halfway into the 20th century, Henry Luce wrote an essay for Time, the magazine he founded, and headlined it The American Century. It sounded presumptuous and bombastic, and it was widely resented, most keenly by those who never read a line of it. What had America given the century except Tin Pan Alley, Hollywood, Al Capone and the hamburger? Luce, in truth, had written a critical essay, not one of celebration. He was bemoaning the fact that America had failed to realise its glittering potential. Americans were nervous or gloomy or apathetic, unhappy because they had been unable to accommodate themselves spiritually and practically to the reality that they had become the most powerful nation in the world. They had muscle, but no moral will. They were not throwing themselves with joy and gladness into spreading the ideals of civilisation, of justice, truth and charity, lifting the life

[CTRL] Israelis seek wonder drug to combat intifada (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- Israelis seek wonder drug to combat intifada http://asia.dailynews.yahoo.com/headlines/world/article.html?s=asia/headlines/010616/world/afp/Israelis_seek_wonder_drug_to_combat_intifada.html TEL AVIV, June 16 (AFP) - Israelis are downing anti-depressants and flocking to psychiatrists' couches in a way they never did before the outbreak of the Palestinian intifada, with its daily dose of stonings, shootings and bombings. Doctor Omer Porat, speaking for the Superpharm chain of drugstores, said: The situation is evident in our pharmacies, which have seen such an upsurge in demand that the supply of tranquilizers cannot always meet it. In Jerusalem, where the tension is even more palpable than elswhere in Israel, Superpharm has recently announced that sales of tranquilizers, particularly organic ones, increased 100 percent over a year earlier. Even in the rest of the country, sales have risen by 35 to 50 percent. Newpharm, a competing chain, has reported a 30 percent rise in the sales of prescription drugs, particularly those of the Prozac family. A giant poster in Hebrew and Russian in the Bat-Yam suburb of Tel Aviv shows that advertising for these miracle drugs has also stepped up recently. But there is more to this phenomenon than medication. Associations providing psychological assistance to the victims of attacks have developed. The Natal centre was created in 1994 with state subsidies by Michel Elharar, a resident of the northern Israeli town of Afoula, who lost his daughter in a bomb attack which also killed another seven people. The president of the centre, Yehudit Yuval-Recanati, points out that there has been a gradual increase in the number of people requiring our help since the Palestinian uprising, or intifada erupted late September. Bomb attacks are perceived as catastrophes constantly recurring, thus creating a feeling of a loss of control and insecurity, as if everything was crumbling, she says in an attempt to convey the latent fear of the Israeli population. To face the situation, the newspapers devote entire pages to the psychology of bombings and radios invite their listeners -- whether they be survivors, witnesses, relatives or just traumatised citizens -- to express their fears on air and chat with a psychotherapist. On May 29, after the accidental collapse of a Jerusalem wedding hall in which more than 20 of the guests were killed, the Yediot Aharonot daily replied to hundreds of anguished citizens, in cooperation with the health ministry municipal psychiatric services and a Jerusalem psychiatric hospital. This capped it all: we had been through catastrophes before, but against a backdrop of a tense security situation, the civil disaster took on the dimension of a tragedy and raised the level of tension and anxiety even more, says Doctor Yair Barel, head of psychiatric services for the Jerusalem district. A few days later, a Palestinian suicide bomber blew himself up outside a Tel Aviv nightclub, killing another 21 people and injuring at least 100. On the scene of one the deadliest anti-Israeli attacks in years, the paramedics were backed up by voluntary and professional psychological experts, who provided assistance not only to the victims of the blast but also to the rescuers, traumatised by the gruesome sight of blood and torn flesh. Many Israeli psychotherapists have found that the Jewish tradition of Shiva, the seven-day period during which friends and relatives visit the mourner, helped to cope with post-traumatic difficulties. Shiva is the opportunity to face such situations. It enables the bereaved to cry, feel the loss with help from friends and relatives, before returning to everyday life, despite the grief and the memories, a psychotherapist told radio recently.

[CTRL] Richard Helms's Niece The Taliban
http://www.villagevoice.com/issues/0124/ridgeway.shtml Richard Helms’s Afghani Niece Leads Corps of Taliban Reps The Accidental Operative by Camelia Fard James Ridgeway WASHINGTON, D.C., June 6—On this muggy afternoon, a group of neatly attired men and a handful of women gather in a conference room at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies. The guest list includes officials from the furthest corners of the world—Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Pakistan, and Turkey—and reps from the World Bank, the Uzbekistan chamber of commerce, the oil industry, and the Russian news agency Tass, along with various individuals identified only as "U.S. Government," which in times past was code for spook. At hand is a low-profile briefing on international narcotics by a top State Department official, who has recently returned from a United Nations trip to inspect the poppy fields of Afghanistan, source of 80 percent of the world's opium and target of a recent eradication campaign by the fundamentalist Taliban. The lecture begins as every other in Washington: The speaker politely informs the crowd he has nothing to do with policymaking. And, by the way, it's all off the record. Lecture over, the chairman asks for questions. One man after another rises to describe his own observations while in the foreign service. The moderator pauses, looks to the back of the room, and says in a scarcely audible voice: "Laili Helms." The room goes silent. For the people gathered here, the name brings back memories of Richard Helms, director of the CIA during the tumultuous 1960s, the era of Cuba and Vietnam. After he was accused of destroying most of the agency's secret documents detailing its own crimes, Helms left the CIA and became President Ford's ambassador to Iran. There, he trained the repressive secret police, inadvertently sparking the revolution that soon toppled his friend the Shah. Laili Helms, his niece by marriage, is an operative, too—but of a different kind. This pleasant young woman who makes her home in New Jersey is the Taliban rulers' unofficial ambassador in the U.S., and their most active and best-known advocate elsewhere in the West. As such she not only defends but promotes a severe regime that has given the White House fits for the past six years—by throwing women out of jobs and schools, stoning adulterers, forcing Hindus to wear an identifying yellow patch, and smashing ancient Buddha statues. In meetings on Capitol Hill and at the State Department, Helms represents a theocracy that harbors America's Public Enemy No. 1: Osama bin Laden, the man who allegedly masterminded the bombing of American embassies in Tanzania and Kenya and is suspected of blowing up the USS Cole. From his Afghan fortress, bin Laden operates a terrorist network reaching across the world. All of which is highly ironic since bin Laden is the progeny of a U.S. policy that sought to unite Muslims in a jihad against the Soviet Union, but over a decade eroded the moderate political wing and launched a wave of young radical fundamentalists. The Taliban, says the author Ahmed Rashid, "is the hip-hop generation of Islamic militants. They know nothing about nothing. Their aim is the destruction of the status quo, but they offer nothing to replace it with." Now the Bush administration is lowering its sights, viewing the Taliban within a broader context of an oil-rich central Asia. The chaotic region is strewn with crooked governments, terrorist brotherhoods, thieving warlords, and smugglers. Against this backdrop, the Taliban sometimes seems to be the least of our problems. The mullahs would like to take advantage of the Bush administration's own fundamentalist leanings, complete with antidrug, pro-energy, and feminist-rollback policies. Their often comic efforts to establish representation in the U.S. took off when they found Helms. For them, she is a disarming presence, the unassuming woman at the back of the room. After spending most her life in the States, Helms has impeccable suburban credentials. She lives in Jersey City and is the mother of a couple of grade-school kids. Her husband works at Chase Manhattan. A granddaughter of a former Afghan minister in the last monarchy, she returned home during the war to work on U.S. aid missions. "Everyone thinks I'm a spy," she said in a recent Voice interview. "And Uncle Dick thinks I'm crazy." Helms's home across the Hudson has become a sort of kitchen-table embassy. She says she patches together conference calls between the Taliban leadership and State Department officials. A recent one cost more than $1000, an expense she covered from her own checking account. One moment she's packing up a used computer for the foreign ministry in Kabul, the next driving down to Washington for a briefing or meeting with members of Congress. Her cell phone rings nonstop. "These guys," she says, referring to the
[CTRL] Why Was Bush In Guatemala?
http://www.consortiumnews.com/061501a.html What Business in Guatemala? By Robert Parry June 15, 2001 George W. Bush’s maiden trip aboard as U.S. president brought some new attention to the earlier mystery of how extensive was his overseas experience. Over the past year, Bush’s aides have given out fragments of information, including one peculiar assertion that Bush conducted business in Guatemala sometime in the past. Immediately prior to his current European trip, Bush’s aides said he had traveled to Europe before, mostly to Great Britain with a 1990 add-on trip down to Spain and Portugal. The aides said Bush had visited Paris, too, though they wouldn’t give U.S. news organizations a date. The confusion over Bush's travels began during last year’s campaign when aides told The New York Times about three overseas trips: a visit to China when his father was U.S. envoy in 1975, a trip as Texas governor to the Middle East (with a stopover in Italy), and a ceremonial visit to the African country of Gambia. [NYT, Oct. 29-30, 2000] That account was followed by some clarifications and more locales to bolster Bush's image as a more seasoned world traveler. In mid-December, spokesman Gordon Johndroe released a list claiming that Bush had been outside the United States “more than a dozen times,” counting “many, many” visits to Mexico and Canada. The overseas trips included France on vacation; Bermuda on vacation; Italy with his family (presumably en route to the Middle East); Israel and Egypt with the National Governor’s Association; Gambia with a delegation during his father’s presidency; England and Scotland; and China to visit his father, with a stopover in Japan on the return flight. [See CNN.com, Dec. 17, 2000] Guatemala? But perhaps Johndroe's most provocative addition to Bush’s travel itinerary was the claim that Bush also had traveled to Guatemala on business. Bush’s aides offered no clarification of this odd entry and there’s no indication that the Washington press corps pressed very hard, if at all, for additional details. Bush’s biographies also have not elaborated on what business Bush would have been conducting in Guatemala, a country that has been the scene of massive human rights violations over the past half century. In 1999, a Guatemalan truth commission, which had received historical records from the Clinton administration, concluded that about 200,000 people were killed in the political violence that dated back to a CIA-sponsored coup in 1954. Some of the worst bloodletting occurred during the 1980s, when the Reagan-Bush administration backed a right-wing military dictator, Rios Montt, who was blamed for massacres in 626 Mayan Indian villages in a butchery judged “genocide” by the commission. While that slaughter was going on, President Reagan lifted a Carter administration embargo on military supplies to Guatemala and defended the Montt regime as having gotten “a bum rap” from human rights groups. Though the historical documents released by President Clinton made clear that the CIA knew differently – and indeed was monitoring the human rights calamity – it is still unclear exactly what Reagan, Vice President George H.W. Bush and their top aides knew about the slaughter as it was occurring. It is clear, however, that with the public-relations help of the Reagan-Bush administration, the genocide went on unchecked. Records Delay Since taking office in January, the new Bush administration has moved to block release of historical records covering deliberations of the Reagan-Bush administration. Those records of policy debates inside Reagan’s White House were scheduled for release on Jan. 21. But George W. Bush immediately authorized delays so the documents could be reviewed and some material possibly withheld from public scrutiny on national security or other grounds. It is still not clear when that document release will occur. Beyond what light those documents might shed on the Reagan-Bush administration’s level of knowledge about the genocide in Guatemala, George W. Bush might expect some reasonable questions about what he was doing in that troubled land. What was his “business” in Guatemala and when was he conducting it? Who were his business associates? Was this a case of Bush’s aides trying to puff up their boss’ scanty record of foreign travel by sticking a stopover in Guatemala on the list or was Bush in Guatemala for a significant period of time? When he was there, what did George W. Bush know about the atrocities and did they matter to him? There are other better-known gaps in Bush’s record, such as his whereabouts during the Vietnam War when he seems to have not shown up for required National Guard duty. But Bush’s aides have put these supposed business dealings in Guatemala on the public record and they presumably were conducted while he was a grown man, not a youth who, by his own account, was "young and

[CTRL] [Fwd: Let Solar Power See the Light of Day]
-Caveat Lector- Original Message Subject: Let Solar Power See the Light of Day Date: Sat, 16 Jun 2001 07:19:11 -0500 (CDT) From: Mark Graffis [EMAIL PROTECTED] Organization: ? To: undisclosed-recipients:; Environment ENS -- Environment News Service Healing Our World: Weekly Comment By Jackie Alan Giuliano, Ph.D. They've lost it, lost it, and their children will never ever wish for it - and I am afraid ... because the sun keeps rising and these days nobody sings. -- Aaron Kramer Is it really a lack of the right technology that is keeping solar power off the mass market? Or is the light from our nearest star, the Sun, being held hostage by an economy that is devoted to using up the Earth's last drops of fossil fuel at all cost? Using the light from the Sun, our ultimate energy source, is not a new technology at all, but has been around for thousands of years. Passive solar heating, orienting a dwelling to take advantage of the sun, has influenced the design of communities from the times of ancient Greece. Fuel wood supplies quickly dwindled as cities grew and an energy crisis was soon at hand. In the 4th century B.C., merchants rose to power by controlling wood supplies and cornering export and import markets. Greed is not a modern invention. Evidence of the use of solar architecture, the design of buildings to make best use of the Sun, has been found in many archaeological excavations. A solar oriented home conserved the use of wood and coal and saved money. In the 4th century A.D., all of the 4,000 residents of the city of Priene in Asia Minor relocated their homes to nearby Mount Mycale to escape frequent floods. An entirely new city was designed and oriented so that they could enjoy the warmth of the Sun in winter and be spared its heat in summer. The use of glass in the 17th and 18th centuries was a way to capture the heat of the Sun efficiently. Soon, solar engines and machines were devised, including a solar powered steam engine, and a solar boiler. A massive solar power plant was built in Egypt in 1912. This plant could pump 6,000 gallons of water per minute and generate 55 horsepower. Plans were underway to replace dirty coal with this new, cheaper form of energy. The onset of World War I in 1914 ended that wave of solar development projects around the world, as engineers and workers left their jobs in sunny climates to do war related work in their homelands. At this point, huge oil and natural gas fields were discovered, eliminating the incentive to continue solar power development. Oil and gas were selling at giveaway prices, and the world's governments and business people became complacent over the availability of energy. Many of the land barons who became the oilmen of the early 20th century formed the huge energy companies we have today. Also around this time, solar powered water heaters were really catching on. More than half the population of Miami, Florida had them by 1941, including 80 percent of the new homes built. But World War II and the prohibition on non-military uses of copper nearly ended the industry in favor of new, cheap electricity. In the 1950s and 1960s, U.S. gas and electric utilities promoted heavy consumption in their advertising campaigns. Lower prices were given to those who used more energy! The campaigns worked, and natural gas and other fuel production doubled between 1950 and 1965. With prices at two cents per kilowatt-hour, there was absolutely no incentive to create energy efficient appliances. The energy ethic that exists today had taken hold. The goal had become to sell the cheapest forms of energy possible to make the most profit for utility owners. Alternative forms of energy that use free sources such as sunlight, wind, and the heat of the Earth do not fit into this model of production. Even though crude oil shortages were beginning to appear in the mid-1960s, the U.S. government never embraced the new technology for solar cells. Authors Ken Butti and John Perlin in their book Golden Thread, 25,000 years of Solar Architecture and Technology, said that Washington's attitude mirrored that of a nation hypnotized by seemingly limitless supplies of cheap fossil fuel, and by the almost magic aura surrounding nuclear energy. Butti and Perlin remind us that there was no powerful solar lobby like the ones for the huge business interests behind coal, oil, gas, and nuclear power. Recently, some cities have offered subsidies for property owners who choose to install solar cells to generate power. But nearly all those programs demand that the homes continue to be hooked up to the energy grid, selling back their surplus power to the electric utility. This has severely limited the ability of people to be able to afford to leave the power grid completely to supply their own energy needs. The utility companies, of course, do not want you to leave the grid, since such an approach would infringe on profits. So

Bryson Hull HOUSTON, Texas -- Foreign oil companies are tapping more of Colombia's rich oil and gas fields as the country offers better contractual terms and increased security, the nation's ambassador to the United States said on Wednesday. ``Colombia has understood that our efforts to make investments in the energy sector more attractive to you are tied to the well-being of all our citizens,'' Ambassador Luis Alberto Moreno told an audience of energy executives at a luncheon sponsored by the InterAmerican Chamber of Commerce. President Andres Pastrana's administration has already increased foreign investment by upping the return energy companies get from exploration and production activities, Moreno said. Previously, foreign operators had to give the government, via Colombian state oil firm Ecopetrol, half of their production. The new contracts, 28 years in length, lower the state's cut to 30 percent. Right now, 80 foreign energy companies are operating in Colombia, he said. Geologically speaking, Colombia is an attractive target for exploration and production companies because of its rich and mostly untapped oil and gas reserves. Moreno said Colombia has 33 billion barrels of oil equivalent and 7 trillion cubic feet of proved reserves in natural gas. But the most bedeviling problem for foreign oil companies is maintaining security for its workers and operations. Guerrillas fighting in Colombia's 37-year-old civil war have bombed pipelines and production facilities and kidnapped workers, adding significant costs and risks. For example, leftist rebels in April kidnapped 27 employees working for U.S. company Occidental Petroleum Corp. at a remote oil field. The Cano Limon pipeline Occidental operates has been bombed more than 100 times. Harken Energy Inc., a Houston-based oil company, in recent months said it was considering the ``timing'' of its Colombian operations, and last week said it planned to merge all of its foreign assets with internationally-focused operator. Pastrana has pushed hard to reach peace with the leftist guerrilla groups, which he sees -- along with the eradication of the nation's illegal drug trade -- as a key to attracting foreign investment to fund infrastructure improvements. ``There is still work to do. We are working hard to reach a peace settlement, a political solution with the main insurgency group, the FARC, which will eventually make situations in Colombia easier for private investors,'' Moreno said. FARC is the acronym formed by the Spanish name of Colombia's largest leftist guerrilla group. The leftist groups generally oppose Pastrana's plans. Pastrana's $7.5 billion Plan Colombia, a broad policy initiative that initially focuses on fighting drug production, also includes efforts to protect Colombia's energy infrastructure, Moreno said.

[CTRL] Shop openly sells cannabis
-Caveat Lector- http://www.guardian.co.uk/drugs/Story/0,2763,507910,00.html Shop openly sells cannabis for medicinal use Supplier claims police turn blind eye to drug dealing Special report: drugs in Britain Sarah Hall Saturday June 16, 2001 The Guardian The owner of a health food shop is openly selling cannabis for medicinal use in the heart of London's King's Cross with the apparent approval of local police, the Guardian can reveal. Tony Taylor, of Tony's Hemp Corner, has around 250 customers, including doctors and lawyers. He claims local police, who arrested him on charges of growing and supplying the plant three years ago, turn a blind eye to his practice as they concentrate on tackling the area's prostitutes and crack cocaine dealers. The news of Mr Taylor's unorthodox business - and the apparent response of Islington police - comes the day after the Guardian revealed that Scotland Yard has officially endorsed a controversial plan not to caution or arrest people caught carrying or using the Class B drug but to give them on-the-spot warnings instead. Senior officers, including the Metropolitan commissioner, Sir John Stevens, believe the scheme, to be piloted in Lambeth, south London, from next month, is sensible and progressive, a view endorsed by the drug policy reform group Transform, who described it as the beginning of the end for current drugs laws. But the Met is bracing itself for accusations that it is going soft. Mr Taylor, who was given an absolute discharge after his arrest three years ago, yesterday described the attitude of police in London's red-light district to his business as really cool. The council and the police know exactly what's going on and the police think what I'm doing is really good, he said from his office, where he keeps accounts and copies of the GP letters he requires. They come around sometimes and say, 'How are you doing, are there any problems?' We've obviously been granted grace because there are so many other problems in King's Cross. However, Islington police last night denied they knew about Mr Taylor's medicinal cannabis dealing. We weren't aware that he was prescribing drugs for patients with GPs' letters, said Detective Chief Inspector Robin Hopes. We'd like to get around a table with him and work out if what he's doing is legal or illegal. Mr Taylor, who offers cannabis at less than the street price, refuses to supply it for recreational use and clients have to fill in a form, undergo a 20-minute interview and provide him with a GP's letter.

[CTRL] How it's done: How to beat the Internationalists...next day news.
-Caveat Lector- The Guardian (London) Saturday June 16, 2001 Ian Black and Michael White in Gothenburg EU leaders fear wrath of the people Europe's leaders were last night forced to consider slowing down their great debate about the future of the continent in the face of growing evidence of a widespread sense of disconnection between the EU and its citizens. As hundreds of anti globalisation rioters offered tangible proof of alienation in violent clashes on the streets of Gothenburg, the 15 heads of government attending the Swedish summit were warned that ordinary people remain frustrated by their remoteness and lack of democratic accountability. Anarchist riots forced them to cancel a planned dinner at a restaurant in the city centre and stay instead in the heavily guarded conference centre. Britain's low election turnout has deeply unsettled ministers. But the catalyst for yesterday's agonising was an unusually outspoken public intervention by Bertie Ahern, the Irish prime minister. Mr Ahern told colleagues that Ireland's shock rejection of the Nice treaty, which paves the way for EU expansion up to 27 members, underlined a widespread sense of disconnection between the union and its people. There is frustration at what is seen as an absence of clarity, openness and responsiveness in how the union goes about his business, he added. There is a real and urgent need to focus on how we make the union more meaningful to our citizens and on how its democratic accountability can be strengthened. The Irish No is unlikely to kill the treaty or prevent enlargement of the EU to the south and east by 2004. Mr Ahern will seek a Yes vote in another referendum, but not until next year. But anxiety with the 54% to 46% voter rejection of Nice in Ireland was barely concealed by some summiteers. And it prompted Tony Blair and fellow leaders to admit to second thoughts as to whether the time is right to launch a potentially divisive debate about the future constitutional direction of Europe. Outside the summit venue hundreds of anti-capitalist activists clashed with police, throwing sticks and cobble stones and erecting burning barricades. Protesters, many wearing black hoods, smashed several shop front windows, including two McDonald's hamburger restaurants. Mr Blair denounced the violence in which up to 37 people, including 10 police officers, were injured. The protests are a complete outrage. To result in this violence is not just entirely wrong, but also completely misguided. The Belgians, who take over the EU presidency from Sweden next month, are due to launch the debate over the future shape of Europe. The EU should not proceed too fast, said the Austrian chancellor, Wolfgang Schussel, who has experienced voter alienation in the shape of Joerg Heider's far-right Freedom party. Nice has not yet been ratified and we are already talking about new goals. But the gloom looked set to kill off Swedish hopes of speeding up the process. Goran Persson, the Swedish prime minister and summit host, had hoped to issue a more precise target date for the entry of countries such as Poland and Hungary, which lead the 12 applicants queueing up to join the club. EU leaders repeated that the bitterly contested Nice treaty, which includes a long-overdue overhaul of creaking institutional machinery, cannot be renegotiated and that enlargement - the biggest ever undertaken - must go ahead. The first newcomers are expected in 2004. Ireland is the only EU state which requires a popular vote, but all 15 members have to ratify it for it to become law. Spain's conservative prime minister, Jose-Maria Aznar, made the same argument in favour of a new slowly-slowly approach. Mr Blair is also likely to welcome this since he fears the divisive abstractions of constitutional debate as he contemplates Britain's crucial decision on a euro referendum. Gerhard Schroder, the German chancellor and his foreign minister, Joschka Fischer, last year sparked a wide debate about the future of Europe as it enlarges in advance of new treaty talks in 2004. But Mr Schroder appeared to be backing down in the aftermath of the Irish vote, which some now fear could come to prove as difficult as the Danish rejection of the Maastricht treaty in 1992. The debate about the final shape of Europe must not be conducted under time pressure, he said, acknowledging Dublin's point that was important to involve the wider public in planning the EU's future. Its an extremely important debate, Mr Persson said. We have to move closer to our electorates. Mr Ahern is likely to negotiate an opt-out on parts of the treaty that Irish voters dislike - notably provisions for setting up an EU rapid reaction force which opponents of Nice claimed would breach Ireland's treasured neutrality. Ireland's rejection of the treaty came just as negotiations with the candidate countries - Estonia, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovenia, Cyprus, Malta, Bulgaria,
[CTRL] Killing without Consequences
http://www.lewrockwell.com/dieteman/dieteman57.htmlJune 16, 2001Killing without Consequencesby David Dieteman[EMAIL PROTECTED]Recently, the federal Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled, 6-5, that thestate of Idaho could prosecute federal sharpshooter Lon Horiuchi formanslaughter in the killing of Vicki Weaver at Ruby Ridge.Horiuchi shot Mrs. Weaver through the head at 200 yards with a 30-06 sniperrifle. She had a baby in her arms.After Mrs. Weaver was killed, federal agents taunted the surviving familymembers.Federal agents, one must recall, were there to arrest Randy Weaver for whatthe Washington Post refers to as relatively minor weapons charges.Indeed. Weaver was charged with sawing one-half of an inch off the length ofa shotgun. At this point, one must question the Posts choice of words:relative as compared to what? The weapons charge which ultimately led tothe death of Vicki Weaver is objectively minor, unless the word minor isto lose part of its meaning. (And so we see how the mainstream mediainsidiously sanitizes the news, giving perhaps half of the truth).Did I mention that Weaver sawed the hideously evil half-inch off the lengthof the shotgun at the request of a federal informant in the hire of theBureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms?Weaver, by the way, had failed to appear in court because he had been giventhe wrong date for his hearing.That justifies killing? Apparently it does in the eyes of some people, whoperhaps cannot imagine any human conduct which should not be subjected tostate control. In other words, there are some people whose notion of libertyis being allowed to do what the government tells you to do and if youdisobey, you die.And now the state of Idaho has decided that it will not exercise its rightto prosecute Lon Horiuchi.Killing without consequences.Did some federal lackey threaten to take away Idahos highway funds? Isthere a cushy federal agency job in somebodys future? So far, no one istalking.The Washington Times adds that Boundary County Prosecutor BrettBenson, in a brief statement issued yesterday by his office, saidAgent Lon T. Horiuchi, a member of the FBI's hostage rescue team,would not be tried in an Idaho court for the Aug. 22, 1992, death ofMrs. Weaver. The statement gave no reason for the decision.This is more than a bit odd. After the state expends no small sum of moneyto take the case to a federal Court of Appeals, they decide to drop thecase.Disturbingly, one of the five judges who would deny Idaho the right toprosecute the sniper for the killing, Judge Michael Daly Hawkins, called theruling a grave disservice to federal law enforcement authorities who knewuntil now that if they performed their duties within the bounds of reasonand without malice they would be protected...and not subject to endlessjudicial second-guessing.What exactly is within the bounds of reason about shooting a woman with ababy in the head from 200 yards? Are we to believe that the governmenttrained this sniper to kill from such a distance, and yet he could not tell,or did not have sufficient optical devices to discern, that his target was awoman with a baby?The majority opinion from the Ninth Circuit found that the snipers shootingwas more akin to recklessness than reasonable doubt. Do we want toencourage reckless behavior by men with sniper rifles? If they work for thegovernment, apparently so.As the Washington Times reports of the Ruby Ridge killing,Acting under modified rules of engagement by FBI supervisors saying thesharpshooters could and should shoot any armed male, Mr. Horiuchi wasattempting to hit Weaver friend Kevin Harris when he shot Mrs. Weaver, 42,as she stood behind a cabin door. The same bullet also struck Mr. Harris ashe ran behind the door.Ah, he couldnt see what was behind the door that is the excuse.But of course, if any private citizen were to shoot at someone inself-defense, but hit someone else, you can be certain that private citizenwould face prosecution. That is because his private killing is notofficial. In short, those who work for the government can kill they canviolate the governments constitutional duty to safeguard the lives of thecitizens and face no consequences. Well, they might not get a promotion.The point the minority judges miss is that the decision to kill mostcertainly the decision to kill a woman holding a baby, even if she waskilled because she was behind a door and not the intended target mustalways and everywhere be subject to second guessing.The alternative is to allow the government to create more men like TimMcVeigh who was, of course, trained to kill by the government who killwithout remorse.The state of Idaho owes the world an explanation. Since the JusticeDepartment spent $3.1 million in tax dollars to settle one lawsuit stemmingfrom Ruby Ridge in 1995, perhaps someone believed that justice had alreadybeen served.But if that is the case, was the state of Idaho

[CTRL] Victimization Of Farsi,Arab Central Asians By The Brotherhood
http://www.davidicke.com/icke/index1c.html Victimization of the Farsi, Arab, and Central Asian Peoples Through the Brotherhood by Peter Khan Zendran "True history is written by the survivors." Peter Khan Zendran As one who is a blood descendent of the Timurid Ak-Konolyu dynasty I am making the following information available for the truth deserves to be known and to prove that history is written the survivors. Since the time of Zarathustra, the people of Iran and central Asia have always been among the major obstacles to the brotherhood agenda and have been largely free and able to resist any brotherhood influences. Since the mid-nineteenth century when Naser ed-Din Shah of the Qajar dynasty of Iran tried to capture Heart from the British the brotherhood has begun their attempts to control Iran. The Qajar dynasty originally was settled in Mazandaran by the Ismaili's after the Timurids were driven out of Iran. After that defeat Naser ed-Din began sending members of his family and other members of the "Thousand Families", which comprise the ruling elite of the Farsi peoples, to European schools, mainly Britain, France, Switzerland, and Austria, to be educated that they would learn how to protect against foreign influence. When Naser ed-Din was assassinated in 1896, possibly by a British agent, the country began its' descent into disorder, as the Iranian revolutions of 1905 and 1911 demonstrated. In 1907 Russia and Britain established "spheres of influence" in northern and southern Iran respectively, particularly in areas with large oil deposits. When British Petrol was established in 1909 its main oil sites were on land belonging to the Sheik of Khorramshar and when World War I started the British began stationing troops there to "protect" the British oil supply in full violation of Iranian neutrality. In 1925 Reza Khan, a Russian trained Iranian General from Mazandaran, overthrew Sultan Ahmad Shah, the last Qajar ruler of Iran after driving the communist Russians and the British from Iran, as well as seizing all territory under control of the Sheik of Khorramshar which included the land on which British Petrol was drilling Oil. Sultan Ahmad Shah went into exile in Britain and Reza Khan assumed the peacock throne as Reza Shah. Interestingly enough he allowed British petrol to continue to operate its' private drilling. During his reign he began importing arms from Britain and Russia and the Iranian navy was entirely British made. As a result of rumors about an Iranian military alliance with Nazi Germany Britain and Soviet Russia invaded Iran on August 25, 1941, openly violating Iranian neutrality under the pretext of securing the British Petrol Oil fields. Three days later Reza Shah ordered a cease-fire and planned his abdication. At the time a son of Sultan Ahmad Shah was serving aboard a British destroyer in the Persian Gulf and was considered to replace Reza Shah as Shah of Iran. Since he spoke little Farsi Mohammed Reza, Reza Shah's oldest son, was installed on the peacock throne as Shah of Iran on September 16, 1941, allied occupation ending at the end of the Second World War. In 1951 Mohammed Mossadeq, Iranian Prime Minister and a member of the Qajar dynasty, nationalized all British Petrol fields and forced the British out of Iran. Two years later, fearing a possible revolution and Qajar revival from Mossadeq, The Shah asked the CIA to help remove Mossadeq. In January 1953 U.S. President Truman had CIA operative Kermit Roosevelt lead a CIA backed uprising against Mossadeq which forced him out of his position as Prime Minister and eventually imprisoned him. Instead of executing or imprisoning Mossadeq the Shah had him exiled to his Ahmadabad estate. As far as the Iranian revolution of 1978-79 goes it was nothing more than a way of removing the biggest threat to the Illuminati agenda at the time. If there are any doubts consider this, from 1971 onwards the Shah was buying up armaments as part of a program to make Iran capable of resisting any invasion and to make its' military equal to that of France by 1982. His purchases included 1500 British made "Lions of Iran" tanks, 800 Chieftain, 406 M-60, 400 M-47, 250 Scorpion tanks, all American made as well as 2000 Russian armored troop transports. For aircraft 178 F-14, 250 F-4, 100 F-5E, 106 F-16 American fighter jets were ordered as were 57 Lockheed C-130 and 24 Boeing 707 and 747 transports, not to mention 7 radar systems. For his navy 4 American Spruance variant destroyers (future U.S. Kidd class destroyers,) 12 destroyers from Holland and Germany, 3 American and 9 German submarines, 50 Bell helicopters, Orion Reconnaissance planes and a tanker fleet. Starting in 1975 he also began an American supported nuclear program in "anticipation" of an Oil shortage. These are anything but the purchases of one who wishes to remain subservient to the Illuminati agenda. Also consider at the time the only weapons Iran was able to produce, and still is, are
[CTRL] Martin- Have I Got An Arms Deal For You
http://www.almartinraw.com/column22.html Have I Got an Arms Deal for You Huntsville Arms Dealers Make Out Like Bandits by Al Martin "Mr. Murphy," the Chinese arms merchant, is working as an agent for a Taiwan-based company called Samitron Corporation. It is on Samitron's behalf that he is dealing in the anti-personnel weapons called "marshmallows." (See previous column "Those Wacky Arms Dealers" ) It should be noted that Samitron is the largest manufacturer of toilet paper in Taiwan. So in essence, you have a toilet paper company dealing in illicit "marshmallows." Samitron Corporation, a Taiwan company, is actually controlled by the People's Republic of China, and it has been often used as a front for illicit weapons transactions. This information was revealed by Mr. Murphy's driver, a 7 ft. tall black guy named Jonesy, who drives Mr. Murphy around in a black Cadillac limo. Mr. Murphy is 4 ft. 9 in. tall and wears elevator shoes. He speaks in a broken Chinese Pidgin-English. Besides driving, Jonesy acts as a bodyguard, but Jonesy doesn't speak English either. All he speaks is Jive, but he can interpret what Mr. Murphy is saying. So you talk with Jonesy and he translates Mr. Murphy's Chinese Pidgin-English into Jive. Then you have to find someone who talks Jive to finally understand what's being said. So when they keep trying to make arrangements for trucking the "marshmallows" out of Huntsville, they talk about Penske (as in Penske Trucking) and Mr. Murphy calls it "Renske". He actually thinks these are different companies. Mr. Murphy has heard of U Haul and Penske, but the way he pronounces them, he thinks that "Ru Raul" is different than U Haul and "Renske" is different than Penske. When the Friendly Colonel finally asked Mr. Murphy what business Samitron was in, Mr. Murphy answers, "Roilet Raper." So he asked Jonesy what he said and Jonesy replies, "Yo, man, That's toilet paper, man." Maybe someone could sell it as a software application - a translation of Chinese Pidgin English and Jive. It has also been revealed that Mr. Murphy's partner is a German arms dealer who works for Siemens. All the other Huntsville arms dealers and the FBI agents call him "Heinz the Hun." In fact, that's what he calls himself. Mr. Murphy's five-ton cargo of "marshmallows" has finally left Huntsville and is being trucked to Decatur, Alabama on the Mississippi River. Then these illegal weapons will be transported by barge to New Orleans. Evidently Penske Trucking didn't want to transport the stuff once they found out what it was. One of the cardboard bankers' boxes, which contained the "marshmallows," was opened and the man in charge, who happened to be a former Army munitions guy, knew immediately what it was. He said, "We ain't touching it." So they had to look around and find someone who would do it with no questions asked. They finally found a tiny company in Madison, Alabama. It's a small one stop-light town, the next town over from Huntsville. The company is called Towelhead Trucking. I swear to God, I didn't make this up. It's run by these two Iranian guys who don't have any papers. They have a 1967 GMC five-ton truck that's rusty and all banged up. And on the door, it's got partially obscured in worn-off paint "Towelhead Trucking." They hardly speak any English. They're apparently undocumented Iranian aliens, who don't even have drivers' licenses. And they told him, "We don't give a shit what you have in there. You pay us. We drive it." At this weekend's auction, Mr. Murphy and Heinz the Hun will be bidding on an illegal missile system which will be transported to Tsing Hua. This is apparently an experimental missile system the United States worked on. They claimed they couldn't get it to work, but in fact it had already been perfected. If they claimed that they had gotten it to work, it would have violated the ABM Treaty. It was secretly finished but couldn't be deployed without violating the treaty, so the $16 billion of covert money that was spent on it was washed out and the missile system just sits in a warehouse marked "Used." They expect be able to buy it for $3 million. What a deal! It cost US taxpayers $16 billion to make it and illegal arms dealers will walk away with it for $3 million. He said that normally these guys get to buy stuff at one-hundredth of the price that taxpayers have paid. That's the normal fraction. This is an indication of how widespread the fraud and corruption really is. And nobody cares. The Friendly Colonel has just attended another one of the Endless Retirement Parties for the FBI Agents Who Never Retire. They've been held in limbo because the FBI doesn't want to let them go - because of what they know. So they just hang around the office all day long, and they have retirement parties, sponsored by

This is wonderful! An actual event to show the foolishness that is going onin our country. Send this on. Virginia This was an actual letter sent to Ryan De Vries from The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, State of Michigan. One must read the entire letter and response to enjoy the full significance of arrogant, ignorant government bureaucrats. Enjoy! == Mr. Ryan De Vries 2088 Dagget Pierson, MI 49339 Dear Mr. De Vries: SUBJECT: DEQ File No. 97-59-0023; T11N; R10W, Sec. 20; Montcalm County It has come to the attention of the Department of environmental Quality that there has been recent unauthorized activity on the above referenced parcel of property. You have been certified as the legal landowner and/or contractor who did the following unauthorized activity: Construction and maintenance of two wood debris dams across the outlet stream of Spring Pond. A permit must be issued prior to the start of this type of activity. A review of the Department's files shows that no permits have been issued. Therefore, the Department has determined that this activity is in violation of Part 301, Inland Lakes and Streams, of the Natural Resource and Environmental Protection Act, Act 451 of the Public Acts of 1994, being sections 324.30101 to 324.30113 of the Michigan Compiled Laws, annotated. The Department has been informed that one or both of the dams partially failed during a recent rain event, causing debris and flooding at downstream locations. We find that dams of this nature are inherently hazardous and cannot be permitted. The Department therefore orders you to cease and desist all activities at this location, and to restore the stream to a free-flow condition by removing all wood and brush forming the dams from the stream channel. All restoration work shall be completed no later than January 31, 1998. Please notify this office when the restoration has been completed so that a follow-up site inspection may be scheduled by our staff. Failure to comply with this request or any further unauthorized activity on the site may result in this case being referred for elevated enforcement action. We anticipate and would appreciate your full cooperation in this matter. Please feel free to contact me at this office if you have any questions. Sincerely, David L. Price District Representative Land and Water Management Division ~~~ RESPONSE Dear Mr. Price: Re: DEQ File No. 97-59-0023; T11N; R10W, Sec. 20; Montcalm County Your certified letter dated 12/17/97 has been handed to me to respond to. First of all, Mr. Ryan De Vries is not the legal landowner and / or contractor at 2088 Dagget, Pierson, Michigan. I am the legal owner and a couple of beavers are in the (State unauthorized) process of constructing and maintaining two wood "debris" dams across the outlet stream of my Spring Pond. While I did not pay for, authorize, nor supervise their dam project, I think they would be highly offended that you call their skillful use of natural building materials "debris." I would like to challenge your department to attempt to emulate their dam project any time and/or any place you choose. I believe I can safely state there is no way you could ever match their dam skills, their dam resourcefulness, their dam ingenuity, their dam persistence, their dam determination and/or their dam work ethic. As to your request, I do not think the beavers are aware that they must first fill out a dam permit prior to the start of this type of dam activity. My first dam question to you is: (1) Are you trying to discriminate against my Spring Pond Beavers or (2) do you require all beavers throughout this State to conform to said dam request? If you are not discriminating against these particular beavers, through the Freedom of Information Act I request completed copies of all those other applicable beaver dam permits that have been issued. Perhaps we will see if there really is a dam violation of Part 301, Inland Lakes and Streams, of the Natural Resource and Environmental Protection Act, Act 451 of the Public Acts of 1994, being sections 324.30101 to 324.30113 of the Michigan Compiled Laws, annotated. I have several concerns. My first concern is - aren't the beavers entitled to legal representation? The Spring Pond Beavers are financially destitute and are unable to pay for said representation - so the State will have to provide them with a dam lawyer. The Department's dam concern that either one or both of the dams failed during a recent rain event causing flooding is proof that this is a natural occurrence, which the Department is required to protect. In other words, we should leave the Spring Pond Beavers alone rather than harassing them and calling their dam names. If you want the stream "restored" to a dam free-flow condition - please contact the beavers - but if you are going to arrest them (they obviously did not pay any attention to
[CTRL] Bush Urges Russia to Forge New Ties
-Caveat Lector- Russia has already forged new ties! With Communist China! - Bill WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Bush Urges Russia to Forge New Ties Updated: Fri, Jun 15 1:00 PM EDT By ROBERT BURNS, AP Military Writer WARSAW, Poland (AP) - President Bush crossed Europe's old Iron Curtain divide Friday and offered his vision of a new, more unified continent where nations, including Russia, cooperate to build the house of freedom. He expressed hope for a truly great Russia where national greatness is measured by the strength of its democracy, the good treatment of its minorities and the achievements of its people. NATO, even as it grows, is no enemy of Russia, Bush said. Poland is no enemy of Russia. America is no enemy of Russia. The president addressed foreign policy notables at the Warsaw University Library, a city landmark with a facade of giant copper plates with fragments of great scholarly writings. Aides had billed the speech as a major policy address, but Bush did not offer specific new policies or proposals. When Europe and America are divided, history tends to tragedy, Bush said. When Europe and America are partners, no trouble or tyranny can stand against us. Bush cited the decade of transition to democracies throughout the formerly communist Eastern and Central Europe, and said he would make the case - starting Saturday during his meeting in Slovenia with Russian President Vladimir Putin - that it is time to move past Cold War doctrine to reach for the fruits of democracy. The Iron Curtain is no more, Bush said. Now we plan and build the house of freedom, whose doors are open to all of Europe's peoples and whose windows look out to global challenges beyond. Outside the library, about 200 demonstrators shouted at Bush when he arrived. Groups of young people held banners, one of which read: Bush to outer space; Missiles to dust bin. The president praised Poland for its successful political and economic transition and said it should be an example for others. I have come to the center of Europe to speak of the future of Europe, he said. Some still call this `the East,' but Warsaw is closer to Ireland than it is to the Urals, he said, referring to the mountain range east of Moscow. It is time to put talk of East and West behind us. Bush said he believes in NATO membership for all of Europe's democracies that seek it and are ready to share the responsibilities that NATO brings. He mentioned no specific candidate countries. In remarks preceding Bush's address, Polish President Aleksander Kwasniewski urged that the doors of NATO remain open. He said Slovakia, Slovenia and the Baltic states of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania be asked to join because they have built functioning democracies. He also urged membership for Bulgaria and Romania, and said the matter may be settled when NATO leaders meet in November 2002 in Prague, Czech Republic. Bush began his Warsaw visit - the fourth stop on an inaugural five-nation European tour - by meeting with Kwasniewski at the 17th century Presidential Palace, a Baroque-style mansion where his father attended a state dinner in 1989. Much of Bush's speech, his only public address during his week in Europe, was directed at Russia. We have a stake in Russia's success, and we look for the day when Russia is fully reformed, he said. The United States and Europe can and should build partnerships with Russia and with all the countries that have emerged from the wreckage of the former Soviet Union. At a news conference with Kwasniewski, Bush said he envisions Russia as a partner and ally, and said the former Soviet empire should not fear the expansion of freedom-loving people to her borders. He announced that the United States had begun the process of transferring a second frigate to the Polish navy, and expressed support for Poland to gain membership in the European Union. The two leaders also discussed NATO expansion, which Bush said is inevitable and should be not be based on the politics of exclusion. And we don't believe any nation should have a veto over who is accepted, Bush said. Bush said he would seek to assure the Russian president that he wants to help elevate Russia's role in the world and Europe while raising concerns about possible Russian shipments of weapons material to Iran. Bush said his primary goal is to build trust with Putin so that when their meeting is over, I am confident I'll be able to say I got a pretty good feel for the man, and he's got a good feel for me. Bush met later Friday with Polish Prime Minister Jerzy Karol Buzek, and laid wreaths at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the Warsaw Ghetto Memorial. Bush faced the tomb at attention while two soldiers placed a wreath of red, white and blue flowers before an eternal flame under arches that are the only surviving remnant of the Saxon Palace destroyed by the Germans during World War II. In his speech, Bush
[CTRL] Putin Warns Bush on Missile Defense
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Putin Warns Bush on Missile Defense Updated: Sat, Jun 16 1:26 PM EDT By RON FOURNIER, AP White House Correspondent BRDO PRI KRANJU, Slovenia (AP) - Russian President Vladimir Putin warned President Bush on Saturday that going it alone on missile defense can only make U.S.-Russian relations more complicated. Bush focused on the positive, announcing that Putin will visit Bush's ranch in Texas for an autumn summit. Bush, in turn, will visit Putin at his home in Russia. Emerging from more than two hours of inaugural talks at Brdo Castle, the two leaders exchanged warm personal compliments. The summit closed Bush's five-day, five-nation maiden tour of Europe, where he encountered skepticism from allies over not only his missile defense policy, but also global warming, trade and capital punishment. Bush met Putin inside the elegant 16th century estate that was a favorite Alpine resort for the late Yugoslav dictator Josip Broz Tito. Bush said Putin was a man Americans can trust. I was able to get a sense of his soul. ... I wouldn't have invited him to my ranch if I didn't trust him. Putin saluted his American counterpart as an honest, straightforward man who loves his country. For all the warmth, Putin acknowledged remaining discord, particularly over Bush's dreams of a U.S. missile shield. The differences in approaches do exist, and naturally in one short moment, it's impossible to overcome all of them, Putin said. Bush had hoped to use the meeting to thaw the chill in U.S.-Russian relations over his plan to scrap the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty banning the kind of missile defense he envisions. Putin, speaking in a joint news conference closing out the summit, did not appear moved. He called the ABM treaty the cornerstone of the modern architecture of international security. Any unilateral actions can only make more complicated various problems and issues, Putin said. In a brief interview with The Associated Press, Bush said the two men had good discussions. We talked straightforward. Nothing was rejected out of hand, Bush said. Asked if that included missile defense, Bush repeated, Nothing was rejected out of hand. Bush chafed at a question about what incentives he might have offered Putin to gain Russian acquiescence. White House aides had said in advance that Bush was prepared to offer Putin inducements such as arms purchases, military aid and joint anti-missile exercises with Russia. We didn't have a bargaining session. We had a session between two men who came to office for the right purpose, Bush said. He asked Secretary of State Colin Powell and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to work with their Russian counterparts on developing a new approach for a new era in security arrangements. Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill and Commerce Secretary Don Evans will head to Moscow soon to further work on economic and commercial ties, Bush said. Bush and Putin meet again next month in Genoa, Italy, at the G-8 summit of industrial powers. On Saturday, Bush tried to put his signature charm to work, paying Putin perhaps the highest of compliments from an American president prizing tax cuts: I was so impressed that (Putin) was able to simplify his tax code in Russia with a flat tax. I'm not so sure I'll have the same success with Congress, Bush said. On missile defense, atop Bush's foreign policy agenda, Putin voiced unwavering reservations and appealed for a go-slow approach. Without restating Russia's opposition, Putin said, The official position of the Russian government is known. The United States and Russia must work together to identify security threats and officials from both countries should sit down to try to find a way together to solve these problems, Putin said. Bush's National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice welcomed that as an invitation to further dialogue on missile defense. They gave experts ... a desire to go now and talk about concrete issues, Rice said. On another contentious issue, Bush reiterated his support for expanding NATO while Putin went to lengths to explain his apprehension about the Western alliance expanding toward Russia's borders. Drawing chuckles from Bush, Putin fished around on his lectern for a declassified 1954 memo in which NATO, casting the Soviet Union as an enemy, rejected Soviet interest in membership. Look, this is a military organization. ... It's moving towards our border. Why? This is the foundation of all of our concerns, Putin said. Their initial meeting - just the two leaders plus one security adviser and one translator apiece - lasted an hour and 40 minutes, about 40 minutes longer than scheduled. Bush and Putin took a break to stroll along a gravel road winding through pines on the castle grounds, then went into another meeting. The overall summit lasted a little more than two hours. In Ljubljana, riot police brought in armored
[CTRL] Over a quarter-million federal workers fail to pay taxes
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Over a quarter-million federal workers fail to pay taxes By LANCE GAY Scripps Howard News Service June 15, 2001 WASHINGTON - IRS records show that 340,000 federal government employees or retirees getting government pensions last year owed a total of $2.5 billion in unpaid taxes. That number includes 2,975 federal workers who were employed by the IRS itself, which operates under a 1998 law that says IRS employees can be reprimanded if they are found making an intentional error that results in underpayment of taxes, or fired if they are found to be negligent in paying their taxes. All federal employees are currently covered by ethics laws, adopted in 1992, that require them to pay their taxes as a condition of their continued employment. Employees shall satisfy in good faith their obligations as citizens, including all just financial obligations, especially those such as federal, state or local taxes that are imposed by law, the regulations state. A review of IRS records, conducted by the congressional General Accounting Office this year, found that the rate of noncompliance among more than 8 million federal employees and retirees was about 5 percent. There was a 7 percent noncompliance rate among the general public. The IRS estimates the total of unpaid taxes is $240 billion. Jeffrey Steinhoff, managing director for the GAO's financial management staff, noted there are more stringent requirements for federal employees than for the general public. If the general public perceives that federal workers and annuitants can successfully evade their tax obligations, voluntary compliance - the foundation of the U.S. tax system - could be eroded, he said. The GAO said the lack of any regular federal withholding of income taxes on federal retirement checks seems to be the reason that 20 percent of federal retirees failed to file. The retirees accounted for 54 percent of the total number of tax delinquents among federal employees. Among the findings: - 36 percent of the cases were delinquent for more than one year. - 29 percent of the cases involved $1.4 billion in uncollected taxes assessed before 1995. - About 2,300 government employees or retirees had been found willfully responsible for failing to pay the proper amount of taxes, resulting in a total of $155 million in IRS penalty assessments. One of these cases involved a federal retiree who failed to send in withholding taxes collected from employees of two businesses he ran. Rep. Jim Turner, R-Texas, who requested the report, said while the federal tax evasion rate is lower than the general public, it's not low enough. These are the same people that are getting monthly paychecks from the government, and yet they have managed to skip out on their taxes. A private business would never stand for this, and the government needs to strive for that same efficiency, he said. IRS Commissioner Charles Rossotti said his agency last year streamlined the accounting procedures for federal employees, and is looking at new educational programs to reduce tax delinquency rates among federal employees. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U.

[CTRL] Polluted' Waters Poorly Chosen by Clinton White House, Scientists Say
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! 'Polluted' Waters Poorly Chosen by Clinton White House, Scientists Say Friday, June 15, 2001 Email this Article WASHINGTON â The Clinton administration told states to clean up thousands of lakes and rivers without enough evidence to assure the right bodies of water were being targeted, a panel of scientists said Friday. The National Academy of Sciences panel agreed water pollution remains a serious problem across the country. But its report is expected to provide support for the Bush administration and some in Congress who want to overhaul the regulation that requires states to develop broad plans to reduce runoff that is polluting lakes and streams. In October, Congress suspended implementation of the regulation, which had been questioned by many states and strongly opposed by farming and business interests. The federally required state cleanup plans, issued earlier last year, would cover about 21,000 bodies of water -- from lakes and ponds to segments of streams and major rivers -- that were determined to be too polluted for fishing and swimming because of stormwater and agricultural runoff. States would have eight to 13 years to develop the plans and start cleanup and water quality restoration programs. But a report issued Friday by an eight-member panel of scientists of the Academy's National Research Council said that the program needs to be re-examined with an eye toward improving the way impaired water bodies are selected. The scientists concluded that many of the waterways were targeted without adequate information about water quality or enough scientific review, while still other waters in need of protection may not have made the list. Considerable uncertainty exists about whether some of these waters violate (pollution) standards, said the panel in a statement accompanying the report. The report urges the Environmental Protection Agency to revamp the program, possibly requiring new legislation from Congress, and develop a more science-based approach to determine where state efforts should be placed. It also criticized the program's use of a broad criterion -- one based on whether a water body is suitable for swimming or fishing -- to determine when a section of a river or lake is in need of cleanup. Instead, different areas should be approved for different uses, the scientists said. Together, these changes would reduce the huge backlog of targeted bodies of water facing states under the program, the panel said. State agencies need to use better data and tools to establish appropriate water quality standards, determine whether standards have been violated and develop restoration plans, said Kenneth Reckhow, a professor at Duke University and the panel's chairman. Reckhow, chairman of the National Institutes for Water Resources, said that the state of the science is sufficient to help states develop a more workable way to identify waters in need of the greatest attention. Although criticizing the federal program, which stems from requirements under the 1970 Clean Water Act, the panel's report agreed that pollution from agriculture and stormwater runoff is jeopardizing water quality in thousands of lakes, rivers and streams across the country. The panel noted that for 30 years federal environmental efforts have focused on discharges into waterways from single points such as factories, businesses and sewage treatment facilities, all of which are required to comply with discharge permits. But pollution from nonpoint sources -- including nutrients, bacteria, sediment, pesticides and chemicals from lawns and farms -- have been largely overlooked, the scientists said. To address this pollution, the EPA regulations required states to establish a total maximum daily load of pollution that will be allowed in any impaired waterway. This is the single most important program we can adopt to address the remaining water pollution problems in this country, then-EPA Administrator Carol Browner declared when the rules were issued. States, however, immediately complained about the scope of the program and its expense. Farming and manufacturing interests, fearing new restrictions on agricultural and stormwater runoff, pressed Congress to intervene. In October, Congress put the program on hold and requested the National Academy review. The panel urged that the EPA and states develop more refined water quality standards, including use of biological measurements, to determine what waters needed attention. It urged development of a two-tier approach in which water bodies are placed on a preliminary list before being elevated to a priority target list for action. Noting complaints about the cost of the program, the panel urged Congress to help states pay for the cleanup through matching funds. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.

[CTRL] Osama bin Laden's man held with RDX Plan to blast US embassy unearthed
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Osama bin Laden's man held with RDX Plan to blast US embassy unearthed By Gaurav Kala NEW DELHI: A Sudanese national, said to be working for Osama bin Laden, and his Indian accomplice were arrested by the Delhi Police in a joint operation with central intelligence agencies from south Delhi on Thursday. The accused, said sources on Friday, were preparing to blast the United States embassy. Abdil Rauf Hawas (30) was arrested after a raid by the Special Cell of the Delhi Police from Nizamuddin area. He was allegedly possessing over 6 kg of RDX, detonators and timers at the time of his arrest, said sources. He was also buying a car, according to the sources, which was to be used for bombing the embassy. The arrest has rattled the Delhi Police top brass as it is the first time that bin Laden's direct involvement in subversive activities has come to light in the country. The security cordon around the US embassy has been tightened following the arrest. Sources in the police said the Sudanese had been in the country for over eight years. ``He had set up base in Udaipur and avoided visiting the Capital. He had reportedly come to the Capital to meet a contact when he was arrested,'' said the source. For the last eight years, Hawas, 30, had been using his student status as a cover for his activities. ``Till 1996, before he left for Afghanistan, bin Laden had his headquarters in Khartoom, Sudan. We believe that it was in the late 80s that Hawas became a member of his terrorist ring. He had then been trained and injected into India on a student visa,'' said the source. Police officials said Hawas was what in espionage terminology is referred to as a `dormant asset' for several years. ``A dormant asset is a well placed agent who is not used for several years. He uses this time to build an alibi for himself and if need be recruit other agents. Such an agent may be mobilised after years of inaction. We believe that this was the case with Hawas,'' said the source. It has also been learnt that Hawas had planned to strike at the US Embassy. Sources said that Hawas had prepared maps and plans and had familiarised himself with the area. He had even set up base in Delhi for this purpose. His Indian accomplice has been identified as Shameem, who hails from Bihar. ``Shameem is a religious minded person. A few years back he came in contact with Hawas. Over time Hawas was able to motivate and recruit him. We are yet to confirm what exactly his role would have been in the intended attack,'' the source added. Intelligence agencies and the Special Cell have now launched operations to try and identify any other bin Laden sympathisers in the country. Teams have already been dispatched to Udaipur and other cities where Hawas is believed to have set up bases. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.

[CTRL] 3 nations to rehearse Mideast war
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! 3 nations to rehearse Mideast war Turkey, Israel, U.S. plan massive exercise over Mediterranean -- -- Editor's note: DEBKAfile's electronic news publication is a news-cum-analysis live wire, online round the clock seven days a week. A weekly edition, DEBKA-Net-Weekly, is now available through WorldNetDaily.com. Drawing on DEBKAfile's unique sources, analytical talents and forward-looking insights, it is presented as a compact, intelligence-angled weekly package. It is available as a direct e-mail feed or via the Internet. © 2001 WorldNetDaily.com One of the biggest air force exercises ever staged in the region takes place Sunday over southern Turkey with more than 500 craft from the U.S., Israel and Turkey participating, according to DEBKA-Net-Weekly, the online intelligence source. Anatolian Eagle, will involve fighters, bombers, surveillance craft, marine vehicles and refueling planes, as well as combat helicopters and will be the first joint exercise by the three air forces. It will last 13 days, ending June 29. Hundreds of craft will zip round the skies over most parts of the eastern Mediterranean and Turkey's frontiers with Syria, Iraq and Iran. Some of the U.S. craft will make use of carriers cruising in the Mediterranean and Red Sea, and Israeli air units will return home periodically to refuel and re-arm at their bases in Neve David and Hatzor, before rejoining the exercise. DEBKA-Net-Weekly's military experts reveal that Anatolian Eagle's secret objective is to make tangible preparations for a Middle East war. The three air forces will be rehearsing a Turkish-U.S. response, should Syria, Iraq and Iran â together or singly â launch a surface missile assault on Turkish and U.S. military bases inside Turkey, as part of an overall offensive against Israel. This offensive might come in the form of a missile raid or a ground invasion through Jordan or Syria. The 1995 Turkish-Israel military pact provides for Israel to use Turkish air bases if attacked. The basic premise underlying the air force exercise is that in the event of a full-blown Middle East war, either of those three neighbors of Turkey will send missiles against military installations in southern Turkey, primarily the big base at Incerlik, for the purpose of demolishing any Israeli warplanes that are on the ground and preventing the Israeli air force from using Turkish soil as a launch pad for reaching targets in Syria, north Iraq, northeast Iran, Iraq's western desert and northeast Iraq. Based in those regions are the very surface missile batteries that Iraq and Iran mean to deploy against Israel in a war. The joint exercise will also drill fighter planes in missile-launcher destruction tactics. For the first time, the Arrow anti-missile missile system will be tried out in mock battle conditions. DEBKA-Net-Weekly adds that the first operational version of the Arrow will be taking part in the exercise and fill two functions: Its advanced radar will be required to pick up surface missile launchings against Turkish targets in time to direct round-the-clock airborne air units to home in on the launchers and destroy them before the enemy has time to conceal them. The Arrow will also be dispatched to intercept enemy missiles penetrating Turkish air space and blow them out of the air. There are signs that the imminent Anatolian Eagle exercise is generating some edginess in Baghdad, Tehran and Damascus. Earlier this week, Syria sent a military delegation to Ankara to quiz Turkish officials about the Israel air force role. According to DEBKA-Net-Weekly sources, the Turks told their visitors politely but firmly to mind their own business. -- -- *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.

[CTRL] Taiwan to test fire Patriot missile
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Taiwan to test fire Patriot missile TAIPEI - Taiwan will test fire US-made Patriot anti-missiles next week, in the first such exercise conducted outside the US. The drill would take place in the southern base of Chiupeng between June 20 and 22, the United Evening News said yesterday. Advertisement Local military authorities consider the test-fire an important breakthrough in Taiwan-US military exchanges, the paper said. Taiwan Defence Minister Wu Shi-wen announced last month that Patriot anti-missile weaponry would be test-fired here as 'part of the routine military training programmes.' The US agreed in April to sell advanced weapons to Taiwan amid rising military threats from China. The arms package - the biggest since Washington sold Taipei 150 F-16s for US$5.8 billion (S$10.6 billion) in 1992 - included four Kidd-class frigates, eight diesel-powered submarines and 12 P-3C submarine-hunting aircraft. --AFP *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U.

[CTRL] America we are in trouble! (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- America we are in trouble! - Fri Jun 15 13:45 http://disc.server.com/discussion.cgi?id=149495article=2940 Fellow Americans, The time has come for us the people of these altered states we call America to take a really good look around. First you must have some way to know if you are really awake, because for most of your life is a reflex and not a true reality. Without a clue as to what is going on the American people, go to work (a conditioned reflex ) to pay the bills of the world and their Masters ( United Nations, US Government ) and live happily and prosper on the 18 to 23 percent left after paying all the required taxes and excise taxes on all utilities, land taxes, Rents, licenses, permits, water, sewage, Personal income, and capital gains. Private school if you wish to have children that can read, unless they can play sports you might save some money there or you could home school your children, not accepted widely, It works the children learn, they are to smart and not likely to be controlled. For the last 5 years the upper 13 percent of the Finalists in the National spelling bee have been home schooled. Sez a lot for your school system don't it. But you can do as you wish with your 18 to 23 percent you can save it after you provide food and shelter for your family and pay that mandatory Car insurance payment. You can be sure that a thankless world makes good use of your money, far better than you could. Right! OK now some of you might be awake, bet it is the ones who drink bottled water (fluoride in water kills your ability to think) they did not tell you that when they dumped it in your water supply, the Russians in the Gulag did not know the water was drugged ether. Fluoride is a main ingredient in the Mind Control drug Prosaic, remember that with the next sip you take. Guess what you still have cavities if you still have teeth, that was the reason they put Fluoride in the water , for your teeth they said but you can't remember that because you brain has rotten. Well not to a point that you can't get by, not yet. Sometimes even an American can catch the system in a act of blatant abuse, such is the case of Randy Weaver a man who did not buy into this circus act he moved his family in to the woods away form the Social Engineers and the programs, back to the basics, God Family self reliance. Randy had some trouble with the law and the FBI came calling.

Dolbeare [[EMAIL PROTECTED]]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Article on IG's; Mentions HUD OIG The Atlanta Journal and Constitution June 13, 2001 Wednesday, Home Edition Who shall inspect the inspectors general? Congress weighs acts of federal watchdogs BY JULIA MALONE Cox Washington Bureau Washington --- More than two decades after Congress set up a network of investigators to attack waste and corruption inside the federal government, new questions have arisen about who is watching the federal watchdogs. Nearly 60 inspectors general now work in federal departments and agencies. They track down abuses, from food stamp cheating to fraud involving billion-dollar weapons contracts. But in some cases, inspector general officials have been caught doing what they are supposed to prevent. The Defense Department's inspector general's office is now under investigation for allegedly re-creating financial records for an audit shortly before the documents were reviewed by an outside auditor last year. As described by an internal Pentagon report, the apparent fabrication required a dozen staffers to work long hours, including overtime, at a personnel cost of $63,000. The alleged deception might never have been detected except for an anonymous whistle-blower who notified officials, including a longtime critic of government waste, Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa). It's a very sad day indeed when the watchdog gets caught cheating, Grassley wrote late last month to Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. If the IG ( inspector general) can't be trusted, then we are in trouble. Who can we trust? The Pentagon case has hit the watchdogs especially hard. You have the IG office that's supposed to be an office of high integrity, said Gaston Gianni Jr., vice chairman of the President's Council on Integrity and Efficiency, which loosely oversees their diverse IG operations and is investigating the Defense Department case. This certainly casts a negative light on the concept, and it hurts all of us, said Gianni, who also serves as inspector general for the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. The Pentagon case is the latest sign of problems inside the network of federal overseers. Among other examples: Former Commerce Department inspector general Francis DeGeorge pleaded guilty last year to a misdemeanor after admitting he negotiated for a job with a company that was a contractor with the agency's National Weather Service. Such conflict-of-interest violations are among the most common issues investigated by IGs. At the Treasury Department, inspector general Valerie Lau stepped down in 1998 after a report by the General Accounting Office, the investigative arm of Congress, concluded that she had awarded a $90,000 consulting contract to a longtime associate without putting the work up for bids. That same contractor had earlier recommended her to the Clinton White House for the IG job. And the IG's office at the Department of Housing and Urban Development has become ensnared in controversies that have affected its oversight of HUD, which has been ranked among the most wasteful agencies in government for the better part of two decades. The General Accounting Office, which serves as the investigating arm of Congress, is expected to release findings next week on whether the IG police force conflicts with the central mission of the IG. The investigation was requested by Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) Some lawmakers have called for a more systematic way to review all IG offices. Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) has drafted legislation for independent reviews of each IG every three years, but the legislation has failed to win passage. She said she would reintroduce her bill this year.

[CTRL] Fwd: [GATA] 'Midas' commentary for June 16, 2001
COPYRIGHT 2001, WWW.LEMETROPOLECAFE.COM NOT TO BE REPRODUCED WITHOUT PERMISSION By Bill Murphy www.LeMetropoleCafe.com June 16, 2001 Gold $271.60 down $4 Silver $4.30 down 8 cents Goldman Sachs and crew continue to flex their short side muscle and came up a winner on Friday after losing for a few days. While a $4 drubbing is not conducive for sweet dreams on the weekend, it is not a reason to be down in the dumps either. This is what I think is going on. For the past year I have asked my GATA delegation colleagues what could be done to solve the gold problem. That is, say I am the president of the United States, I know GATA is right,and I have called the Howes and Venerosos in, seeking suggestions on the best way to undo the gold mess created by the Clinton administration. My colleagues have mostly answered, I don't know. To illustrate just how serious and complicated the gold problem is, Frank Veneroso's specialty was crisis management. The finance ministers of Chile and Mexico called on Frank to help them solve economic crises. He knew just what advice to give them. But on gold he draws a blank. In recent Midas commentary, I have mentioned some anecdotal information about the government's main bank, J.P. Morgan Chase, like its stopping as many of the June Comex gold deliveries as possible. GATA also knows that the president, economic adviser Lawrence Lindsey, and Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill are very aware of the gold problem. We also know that the volatility in the gold price has increased dramatically in the past month and that the lease rates remain high. My hunch is that to minimize damage in the unwinding of the gold fraud, the Bush Administration directed that the gold lease rates be taken to high enough levels to shrink the contango and discourage forward selling. That would tend to reduce the total number of short positions. That was the first step. Step 2 would be to increase the gold volatility in a deliberate effort to warn market participants that a big gold event is coming and that to be overly short or too aggressive in writing calls is liable to be very dangerous, or even fatal, in the very near future. They probably know that J.P. Morgan Chase has to be bailed out officially by the U.S. government in some way -- under the too big to fail principle. Their short position is just too big to be covered. How they will present this to Congress and the American public is hard to say. What they must be trying to do now is reduce the collateral damage to other gold shorts that will happen when they let the gold price go. With increasing volatility before the gold price takes off, a good number of gold market players should be scared out their vulnerable gold short positions, and out of their potentially disastrous written call option positions. The goal must be to have the Comex open interest as low as possible when the gold price explodes. And, in fact, the gold Comex open interest right now is an extremely low 118,677 contracts. That J.P. Morgan has taken in thousands of Comex gold contracts also fits, as it will make it harder for longs to squeeze Comex in the coming gold debacle, or cause an exchange default. Whether my postulation is correct or not, the high lease rates and the increased volatility have the attention of everyone in the gold world and have become a topic of conversation. For example, comments today from the Gold Precious Metals Report from mega-gold bears Macquerie Research Equities in Australia: * * * * Traders are expressing a high degree of uncertainty about the current move and generally report little clear view on the likely direction in the short-term. It is fair to say that few generally believe that the rally in gold can be sustained for very long but are not convinced enough to sell into the strength evident from the U.S. This uncertainty, plus concerns about options positions, has seen gold option volatility jump higher. * Not that the strong gold prices have been driven by massive buying surges into gold. The Comex exchange data shows that while large speculators are maintaining a significant net long futures only position, the overall open interest is considerably lower than earlier peaks. * In our view the strongest positive argument for gold remains the narrowing gold contangos which have significantly reduced the risk/reward in forward-selling gold at these levels. Given that interest rates are still likely to fall in the coming months and the gold lease rates remain stubbornly near 2 percent, we still expect the contangos to narrow further and in the past contangos below this level tend to be associated with rising gold prices. * * * This is the most gold-friendly John Brimelow has seen the contangos, and this kind of commentary is becoming reasingly pervasive in the gold industry. I know of a silent Gold Cartel member that is out of sorts because it has a big
[CTRL] Fwd: FBI lapse let serial killer suspect remain free
Chicago Tribune FBI lapse let serial killer suspect remain free By Cam Simpson Tribune staff reporter June 16, 2001 The Chicago FBI on Friday acknowledged a lapse in alerting Illinois officials that they found a knife in the home of suspected serial killer Paul Rungenotification that could have sent him back to prison before he allegedly murdered four more women. Runge, a 31-year-old truck driver and former shoe salesman, was charged Thursday with killing six women and a child. His last four victims, police said, were slain in Chicago in early 1997, more than one year after the search of his Carol Stream home. When the knife was found on March 8, 1996, the FBI and two other law enforcement agencies involved didn't think of using it to invoke a violation of Runge's parole for a 1987 rape, said Ross Rice, a spokesman for the FBI in Chicago. Instead, investigators were solely focused on finding evidence they hoped would link Runge to the 1995 murder of Stacey Frobel and the disappearances that same year of two sisters who were refugees from war-torn Bosnia, Rice said. Only in May 1997, when authorities were desperate to lock up Runge because they suspected but could not prove that he was a killer, did they hit on the tactic of violating Runge's parole for possession of the weapon, Rice said. Illinois officials jailed Runge the next month. When his sentence expired in 1999, authorities went to court in 1999 to keep him in prison under the Sexually Violent Persons Act. Psychologists testified he was a sexual sadist and said he had no remorse for the kidnapping, repeated rape and torture of a 14-year-old Oak Forest girl. He was still being held when police said DNA evidence linked him to two murders and Runge then allegedly confessed to the other slayings. Authorities believe Runge is responsible for at least one other murder, law enforcement sources said Friday. He allegedly confessed to also killing a prostitute and chopping up her body, scattering the remains, which have not been found, the sources said. Police have charged him with three murders in which the victims were dismembered. Two of those bodies have not been found and a dog found the legs of another victim in Lake County. Authorities also said Runge nearly escaped last year after he and two other inmates being driven to a Cook County court hearing overpowered a corrections officer during a stop in Plainfield. Their escape was brief because they were immediately captured by local police who witnessed the incident, officials said. The knife that eventually sent Runge back to prison was among more than 200 items seized from the home Runge shared with his wife and father, according to court records. FBI agents also found a book about a serial killer who dismembered women and kept their eyeballs as souvenirs, a guide to police radio traffic, a crossbow and a stun gun, records show. Looking for evidence We never felt that any of these items, including the knife, in and of itself, would be a parole offense, nor were we looking to violate his parole, Rice said. We were looking for evidence linking him to the disappearances and or linking him to the murder of Frobel. When the FBI finally notified state officials about the knife, Runge had only about three weeks left on his parole, which was part of what motivated the effort to lock him up, Rice said. What is clear from once-sealed court records obtained Friday is that the FBI's efforts to link Runge to the 1995 Frobel killing and the disappearance of the two Bosnian women was intense in 1995 and early 1996. Runge's wife, Charlene, was also considered a suspect in the disappearances of Frobel and the Bosnian sisters, an FBI agent said in a affidavit to obtain a search warrant. Two law enforcement sources said Friday that Charlene Runge has been assisting in the investigation of her husband. That cooperation began after Paul Runge was back in custody in June 1997, but long before DNA evidence linked him to two Chicago murders late last year, a source said. Attempts to reach Charlene Runge for comment were unsuccessful Friday. On Thursday, Runge was charged with the murders of the BosniansDzeneta Pasanbegovic, 22, and her sister, Amela, 20. FBI tracking Runge The 1996 affidavit revealed FBI agents had studied bite marks on Frobel's dismembered leg, followed Runge and his wife, traced calls from pay phones the couple used, tapped their phones and sifted through their garbage for months looking for evidence. Investigators said Runge became a suspect in the murder of Frobel a few days after a German shepherd named Friendly brought home a severed leg it found in a field near the Wisconsin border on Jan. 16, 1995. Five days later, the dog brought home another leg. Tests concluded they were Frobel's, who was a friend of Charlene Runge's. She had been missing since Jan. 4 and was last seen at the Runge house. The Pasanbegovic sisters were last seen on July 11, 1995. Runge became

It's a question that won't be asked of Elliott Abrams at a Senate confirmation hearing--because George W. Bush, according to press reports, may appoint Abrams to a National Security Council staff position that (conveniently!) does not require Senate approval. Moreover, this query is one of a host of rude, but warranted, questions that could be lobbed at Abrams, the Iran/contra player who was an assistant secretary of state during the Reagan years and a shaper of that Administration's controversial--and deadly--policies on Latin America and human rights. His designated spot in the new regime: NSC's senior director for democracy, human rights and international operations. (At press time, the White House and Abrams were neither confirming nor denying his return to government.) Bush the Second has tapped a number of Reagan/Bush alums who were involved in Iran/contra business for plum jobs: Colin Powell, Richard Armitage, Otto Reich and John Negroponte. But Abrams's appointment--should it come to pass--would mark the most generous of rehabilitations. Not only did Abrams plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of lying to Congress about the Reagan Administration's contra program, he was also one of the fiercest ideological pugilists of the 1980s, a bad-boy diplomat wildly out of sync with Bush's gonna-change-the-tone rhetoric. Abrams, a Democrat turned Republican who married into the cranky Podhoretz neocon clan, billed himself as a gladiator for the Reagan Doctrine in Central America--which entailed assisting thuggish regimes and militaries in order to thwart leftist movements and dismissing the human rights violations of Washington's cold war partners. One Abrams specialty was massacre denial. During a Nightline appearance in 1985, he was asked about reports that the US-funded Salvadoran military had slaughtered civilians at two sites the previous summer. Abrams maintained that no such events had occurred. And had the US Embassy and the State Department conducted an investigation? My memory, he said, is that we did, but I don't want to swear to it, because I'd have to go back and look at the cables. But there had been no State Department inquiry; Abrams, in his lawyerly fashion, was being disingenuous. Three years earlier, when two American journalists reported that an elite, US-trained military unit had massacred hundreds of villagers in El Mozote, Abrams told Congress that the story was commie propaganda, as he fought for more US aid to El Salvador's military. The massacre, as has since been confirmed, was real. And in 1993 after a UN truth commission, which examined 22,000 atrocities that occurred during the twelve-year civil war in El Salvador, attributed 85 percent of the abuses to the Reagan-assisted right-wing military and its death-squad allies, Abrams declared, The Administration's record on El Salvador is one of fabulous achievement. Tell that to the survivors of El Mozote. But it wasn't his lies about mass murder that got Abrams into trouble. After a contra resupply plane was shot down in 1986, Abrams, one of the coordinators of Reagan's pro-contra policy (along with the NSC's Oliver North and the CIA's Alan Fiers), appeared several times before Congressional committees and withheld information on the Administration's connection to the secret and private contra-support network. He also hid from Congress the fact that he had flown to London (using the name Mr. Kenilworth) to solicit a $10 million contribution for the contras from the Sultan of Brunei. At a subsequent closed-door hearing, Democratic Senator Thomas Eagleton blasted Abrams for having misled legislators, noting that Abrams's misrepresentations could lead to slammer time. Abrams disagreed, saying, You've heard my testimony. Eagleton cut in: I've heard it, and I want to puke. On another occasion, Republican Senator Dave Durenberger complained, I wouldn't trust Elliott any further than I could throw Ollie North. Even after Abrams copped a plea with Independent Counsel Lawrence Walsh, he refused to concede that he'd done anything untoward.

http://www.dawn.com/2001/06/14/int8.htm Israeli army using controversial weapon GAZA, June 13: The Israeli army on Wednesday described as a mistake its killing of three women at a Bedouin camp in the Gaza Strip, and a military source said the soldiers involved could be court-martialled. The women were killed on the weekend by tank shells that sprayed deadly razor-sharp darts known as flechettes, a controversial weapon in Israel's arsenal that it used in its war in south Lebanon against Hezbollah. A defence specialist said on Wednesday the weapons were not meant for use in civilian areas because they were not accurate. "In the case of the Bedouin women there was a mistake. There was a sighting of suspicious figures, the soldier fired toward them and instead hit the Bedouin women," an army spokesman said. He said the Israeli army chief of staff was conducting an inquiry. An Israeli military source added: "They are considering a court martial. There was a mistake and reprimands are expected." The army spokesman, describing the incident, said the army had spotted two armed Palestinians. He did not say if the pair had been shooting. An earlier army statement said soldiers had come under fire from three different locations. Hospital X-rays seen on Wednesday showed flechettes embedded in the spines or necks of Selmiya al-Malalha, teenager Hekmat al-Malalha and Nasra al-Malalha, who died on Saturday night. Gaza City's Shifa hospital director-general for admissions, Muawiya Hassanein, said at least six Palestinians had been killed by flechettes since the start of the Palestinian uprising in late September. A correspondent has seen five of the bodies killed by flechettes or their X-rays. BEDOUIN ENCAMPMENT: The Palestinian Authority called the killings an "ugly crime". A correspondent who visited the Bedouin camp just south of Gaza City on Tuesday saw dozens of flechette holes punched through the scrap metal or plastic sacks the women had used as shelter. The nail-like projectiles were everywhere - sticking out of sand dunes, stuck in plastic water jugs and among the jagged fragments from the 120mms tank shell. For the husband of 17-year-old Hekmat, the talk of an Israeli-Palestinian ceasefire could not ease the pain of losing a young wife. Salam al-Malalha had been waiting for her in their tent as she chatted outside with relatives. "I carried her after she was hit. The weight of her body was unusual. It was clear she was dead," Salam said, sitting on the sand floor of the tent they shared. Hekmat's dusty handbag hangs from a branch inside the tent. She had turned a rusty old bucket upside down on the sand floor of her tent, in a pitiful attempt at a vanity table. There were bottles of nail polish, and a flechette next to her hairbrush. Camels and goats grazed in pens outside. "I was first attracted to her kindness. But then this grew into love," said Salam, looking at their wedding photographs. FLECHETTES: Flechettes are about the size of an average nail with small fins at one end to stabilize them in flight. They can be packed inside tank shells or in "ambush busters" fired from an M-16 assault rifle. They penetrate deep into the body. Paul Beaver, a spokesman for Jane's Defence, said there were varying interpretations about the use of the ammunition and prohibitions under the Geneva Conventions. The ammunition was technically not illegal in the case of a "war of national survival", Beaver said. He said the ammunition's illegality was dependent on the context. It was not designed to be used in populated areas like the Bedouin camp, because when a tank shell exploded it sprayed flechettes in a radius of about 270 degrees around the impact point. In areas in which there were civilians, the firing of flechette rounds was "an indiscriminate use of the weapon". Instead, troops should fire aimed shots, Beaver said.-Reuters
[CTRL] Skolnick- The Secrets Of Timothy McVeigh
http://www.skolnicksreport.com Skolnick - The Secrets Of Timothy McVeigh By Sherman H. Skolnick 6-15-1 Shackled and hand-cuffed to major financial forces, the moguls of the monopoly press believe the secrets of Timothy McVeigh ended when he ended. And the stooges, masquerading as our leaders, governing nowadays without our consent, are inclined to believe that as well. What they did not realize is that some of their supposed confidential conversations were not that hush-hush. Were overheard and noted, even apparently taped. What did they know and not tell us? Information confirmed to them as correct but kept from the common people? [1] That the American secret political police had McVeigh under video and audio scrutiny from at least thirty days prior to the multiple bombings on April 19, 1995, of the Alfred P. Murrah Building. 2] McVeigh was surveilled in Kansas and Oklahoma in the company of two middle-eastern types, partly disguised. As known to the FBI , the American CIA, and other espionage agencies, foreign and domestic, his two handlers accompanied him in a late model four-wheel drive pick-up truck. [3] As these agencies corroborated, McVeigh's supervisors were actually Iraqi military officers, from intelligence units, quietly brought into the United States at the end of the brief Persian Gulf War, 1991. They were part of more than four thousand of the same, supposed defectors, arranged by then President George Herbert Walker Bush. The Elder Bush, many do not know, for the decade of the 1980s, was the PRIVATE business partner of Saddam Hussein, the Iraqi strongman. Together, they shared billions and billions of dollars of kick-backs and "protection" funds, from the weak oil sheikdoms of the Persian Gulf. A little known Chicago federal lawsuit was brought, in October, 1990, during the lead-up to the shooting war, to keep concealed the related bank records showing the clandestine partnership. The case involved the records of the Chicago unit of Italy's largest bank, owned in part by the Vatican, Banca Nazionale del Lavoro, BNL. The Federal Reserve Board wanted the House Banking Committee Chairman to agree never to use the records because he refused to sign a secrecy oath. As the only journalist attending the court hearing, I interviewed some of the participants in the back of the courtroom.I asked and received identical answers three times, to be certain of the crucial data. They confirmed the Bush-Saddam relationship and the monstrous kick-backs from the sheikdoms. Only one publication, a populist newspaper, The Spotlight, penetrated the nationwide censorship and ran my exclusive story, August 19, 1991. The case was entitled People of the State of Illinois ex rel Willis C. Harris, Bank Commissioner vs. the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the House Banking Committee, No. 90 C 6863, in the U.S. District Court, and later heard in the U.S. Court of Appeals, 7th Circuit, Chicago. The three-judge federal appeals court panel was dominated by the infamous Chief Judge Richard A. Posner [(312) 435-5806] [Visit our website for our story "Chief Crook Enters Microsoft Case".] Posner and his virtual shadow, federal appeals Judge Frank H. Easterbrook [(312) 435-5808], although on the bench, continue to represent reportedly the billion dollar stock portfolio of the oil-soaked Rockefeller's University of Chicago, were they used to be law professors. [The two judges have reportedly failed to disclose the relationship in their mandatory annual Federal Financial Disclosure Report.] As part of the cover-up, Chief Judge Posner ordered the Bush/Saddam/BNL case removed from the courthouse. Later, Posner and his shadow Easterbrook, as a reprisal for my reporting the case on my TV Show, unconstitutionally ordered me and a TV program associate of mine, Joseph Andeuccetti, barred from all the federal courtrooms in the 7th Circuit, Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin. [The U.S. Supreme Court refused a remedy to this blatant First Amendment violation.] [4] Of the more than four thousand Iraqi military officers brought into the U.S. by then President Bush, more than five hunded reside with their families in Lincoln, Nebraska, and two thousand with their families reside in Oklahoma City and right nearby. [5] As actual cronies, although little known or understood, the Elder Bush and later as President, William Rockefeller Clinton, arranged for these supposed defectors to have housing, to be usefully employed, and to have other financial and related provisons, for the Iraqis and their families. Jointly, the Elder Bush and Clinton were in a position to know full well that some of these military officers were double-agents, trained in dirty bloody tricks. Little-known, the Elder Bush has reportedly been a major stockholder of a French firm, American LaFarge, which reportedly makes the ingredients for poison

-Caveat Lector- From the : OTTAWA RECOVERED MEMORY PAGE this article may be heavy for survivors of abuse. excerpts from http://www.carleton.ca/~whovdest/calof2.html In December 1995, two women filed ethics complaints with the American Psychological Association (APA) against Elizabeth Loftus, PhD, regarding her published statements about two legal cases involving delayed memories of sexual abuse. Citing procedural considerations, however, the APA has declined to investigate the women's ethics complaints. Jennifer Hoult (a concert harpist living in New York) and Lynn Crook (a Washington State consultant) each filed separate complaints with the APA, alleging that Loftus mischaracterized the facts of their legal cases in published articles. Both women brought successful civil suits because of the sexual abuse that the fathers (and the mother, in Crook's case) perpetrated against them during their childhoods. At their trials, they presented corroborative evidence that met the requirements for judicial proof of their allegations.

Soliman Al-Masri was killed and three other Palestinians from Rafah, including a doctor, were injured in the Tel el-Sultan neighbourhood, when residents tried to stop a group of masked men from firing on a nearby Israeli position, the source said. Orders have been given to arrest Palestinians described as outlaws for attacking Israeli soldiers in violation of orders by Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, the same sources added. The Israelis and the Palestinians agreed on a ceasefire on June 13, following US mediation. Masri's death is the first incident of this kind since the Palestinian uprising, or intifada erupted on September 28, bringing the death toll to 612: 483 Palestinians, 110 Israelis, 13 Israeli Arabs and six Europeans. -- -- Best Wishes Where is it written in the Constitution, in what section or clause is it contained, that you may take children from their parents and parents from their children, and compel them to fight the battle in any war in which the folly or the wickedness of government may engage it? -Daniel Webster, speech before the House, 1/14/1814 A HREF=http://www.ctrl.org/;www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

FOUNTAIN CICERO, Ill., June 15 The top official of this Chicago suburb where Al Capone once reigned was arrested by federal agents today along with a former police chief and a former town treasurer, all accused of making Cicero a personal piggy bank by siphoning off more than $10 million from the town's insurance program. The authorities described an elaborate scheme, involving in part a man with ties to the Chicago Mafia, that prosecutors said was set up by Frank Maltese, a convicted mob bookmaker who died nine years ago and was the husband of Betty Loren- Maltese, who as town president was the leading official seized today. The United States attorney's office said Ms. Loren-Maltese and the two other members of the town's insurance committee had regularly sent payments from the health insurance fund to its unlicensed insurance administrator, a firm called Specialty Risk Consultants, or SRC. Much of that money, the authorities said, was then eventually kicked back to the officials, who used it to buy a hotel complete with golf course in northern Wisconsin, an Indiana horse farm, a vacation home and cars. Some of the proceeds remain unaccounted for, the officials said. The Associated Press Betty Loren-Maltese, the town president of Cicero, Ill., with her lawyer, Terry Gillespie, on Friday in Chicago. The authorities expressed amazement at the extent of the corruption that they said had infested Cicero in this latest episode of a town afflicted for decades by mob influence. We've had cases where organized crime has paid money to public officials to allow organized crime activities to occur, said United States Attorney Scott R. Lassar, speaking at a morning news conference to announce the indictment of Ms. Loren-Maltese and nine others. But this is the first time where there has essentially been a looting of a town and organized crime influence has been alleged to be involved in that looting of the town. Mr. Lassar said municipal officials had used their mob connections to turn the town of Cicero into a personal piggy bank. With the arrests, said Kathleen McChesney, the head of the Chicago office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Cicero candy store is closed. The indictment charges the 10 accused with racketeering conspiracy, fraud, money laundering and tax offenses. Ms. Loren-Maltese herself is charged with racketeering, wire fraud, mail fraud and filing a false tax return. If convicted, she could face up to 20 years in prison on each of the most serious charges, involving racketeering and fraud. The indictment says that from April 1992 to March 1997, Cicero paid $33 million to SRC, the insurance administration firm, based in northwest suburban Schaumburg. Over the course of that time, the indictment says, Cicero's insurance committee Ms. Loren-Maltese, Police Chief Emil Schullo and Treasurer Joseph DeChicio authorized payment of $28 million to the firm without the approval of the town board as required by ordinance. Of that $28 million, more than $10 million is said to have been stolen. Besides the three officials who made up the insurance committee, those charged today are Michael Spano Sr., described by the authorities as having mob ties and a hidden controlling interest in SRC; his son, Michael Spano Jr., controller of the firm; John LaGiglio, also said to have had an interest in the firm; his wife, Bonnie LaGiglio, a general partner and

[CTRL] Fwd: [American_Liberty] Following Roger's Money
http://www.msnbc.com/news/588381.asp Roger Clinton: Following the Money The former presidents brother is entangled in another pardon scandal By Mark Hosenball NEWSWEEK June 16 Government investigators trying to untangle the Clinton pardons scandal are taking a hard look at the former presidents half brother, Roger Clinton. Federal prosecutors want to know if he was involved in alleged schemes that promised the possibility of pardons and other favors in exchange for cash fees. INVESTIGATORS ARE ESPECIALLY interested in Clintons alleged dealings with Garland Lincecum, a Texan convicted of investment fraud in 1998. Lincecums lawyer, Ed Hayes, told Newsweek his client was looking for a way to avoid prison when a friend, Richard Cayce, suggested he enlist Roger Clintons help. Investigators say Cayce, an alternative medicines salesman, claims Clinton was going to help him secure diplomatic passportswhich he hoped would impress foreigners. Cayce also says Clinton and two associates, George Locke and Dickey Morton, agreed to get the passports for a fee of $100,000. According to Cayces lawyer, Cayce turned over $30,000 cash and wired $70,000 to a company called CLMwhich they told him consisted of Clinton, Locke and Morton. Cayce says he made the cash payment at an August 1998 meeting with the partners at a Dallas airport hotel. Later that day, Cayce says, he introduced Lincecum to Locke and Morton. According to Lincecums lawyer, they told Lincecum that Roger would lobby Bill Clinton for a pardon in exchange for $300,000. Roger was not at the meeting, but Lincecum told investigators that at one point Cayce pointed to a man on a balcony and hinted that it was Roger. Lincecums lawyer says his clients family turned over $235,000 to CLM, including two checks for $100,000 each. Financial records obtained by Newsweek show that days after those payments, Roger Clinton in turn deposited checks from CLM worth $25,500 in his own bank accounts. Government sources with access to CLMs books say they believe the checks to Clinton were likely drawn from the money the Lincecums gave CLM. In the end, Cayce never got diplomatic passports. And Lincecum was never pardonedhis name was not even on a list of six names Roger gave the president for consideration. Locke and Mortons lawyer says his clients have taken the Fifth with the Feds and declined comment. Roger Clintons lawyer, Bart Williams, says Roger met with Cayce twice. But Roger denies ever meeting Lincecum or seeking or receiving money for passports or pardons. Clintons lawyer says checks he got from CLM were from unrelated deals, but denies Roger was part of the company. That may not be enough for prosecutors. Earlier this month, they brought Lincecum from his Texas prison cell to New York, where he told his tale to a federal grand jury. © 2001 Newsweek, Inc. ### Multimedia News Portal - All Print News 400 Talk Radio Shows PortalCheck.com: http://members.nbci.com/_XMCM/NaltyNews/index.htm ### Evolution beyond the moral and intellectual fraud of politics.

[CTRL] Europe Slouches Towards Fascism
-Caveat Lector- www.sundaytelegraph.com/leaders Fortress Europe News: He taunted the police to shoot him. . . and then one of them did THREE people shot, 600 detained, 12 policemen injured, several shops trashed and burned: the 12 hours of non-stop violence which erupted in Gothenburg as European leaders discussed plans to implement the Nice Treaty's commitments last week was bloody and destructive. Already, the riots have been bracketed with Irish voters' rejection of the Nice Treaty as a sign of discontent with the European project, a harbinger of protests to come. In fact, the riots in Gothenburg were nothing of the sort. They were the result of a small group of thugs who enjoy smashing up and people, and for whom politics and ideology are merely a convenient fig leaf for engaging in their favourite activity. They carried placards saying Smash capitalism and banners with pictures of Marx, Lenin and Mao, but no one should take that too seriously: the emphasis was on smashing, not on capitalism, and most of them probably had no idea who the men whose pictures they were carrying were, still less of what Communism is. The rioters in Gothenburg do not represent anything except the thuggish tendency and its delight in destruction. That is why the attempt to link them with the voters who rejected the Nice Treaty in the Irish referendum is completely misplaced. For the voters in Ireland who said No were law- abiding citizens, people who pay their taxes, contribute to their society's wealth and have a rational vision of what they want their country to be like - which cannot be said of the thugs who torched Gothenburg. Ireland is the only European country which has actually sought to test whether there is a popular mandate for the Nice Treaty. Its rejection by ordinary voters ought therefore to be profoundly alarming to the bureaucrats and politicians who run the European Union. Unfortunately, they seem to think that popular refusal doesn't count: the right course of action is simply to disregard it, and plough on as if nothing had happened. Europe's ministers have made it clear t hat they do not intend to change a single word of the treaty to placate Irish concerns that it may compromise the country's neutrality - even though, according to EU law, the treaty cannot be valid unless every country ratifies it. Presumably, Eurocrats and Euro-politicians believe that it is time for the Irish government to dissolve their people and elect another. European politicians, however, are not the only ones who have expressed disdain for Ireland's voters. On Friday night, Peter Hain, our new Minister for Europe, insisted that the Irish hadn't really rejected the Nice Treaty - they can't have known what they were voting about, he said, because if they had, they would have voted in favour rather than against it. Mr Hain's contempt for the intelligence of ordinary voters is disquieting. He does not seem to realise that, in a democracy, it is the people who authorise politicians to do things, and not the other way round. The EU has adopted a policy of intransigence on every dot and comma of the Nice Treaty. It is a policy which risks losing it all. The treaty has valuable elements: the enlargement of the Union to include states from Eastern Europe is a sensible move, not least because it will ensure the abolition of the Common Agricultural Policy, which will simply be unaffordable when the Poles, Hungarians and the rest join. Enlargement will also weaken the Franco-German axis at the heart of the EU: that will also be to the good, for it is that axis which has tried to weld Europe into an embryonic super-state. The ambitions of this axis have nurtured the fears of many European voters t hat the EU is increasingly dictatorial, and that its ever-bolder exercise of power is without legitimacy. The Germans, for instance, were not given the opportunity to vote on whether they wanted to keep the mark, or abolish it in favour of the euro, and nor were most of the other countries which have been railroaded into the currency. It may mean that when the time comes to abolish the individual member currencies in 2002, there will be, as the President of the European Parliament has predicted, much more opposition than anyone has bargained for. The real danger to the EU is not thugs throwing bricks at policemen and and looting shops. It is the granite refusal of the organisation's politicians and bureaucrats to consult with the people from whom their authority is supposed to derive. The electors still have the power to throw out governments which they think have ceased to represent their concerns or protect their interests. The politicians cannot use the police to protect themselves from that threat. It is richly symbolic that subsequent European summits are now to be held in Brussels, rather than in the countries which hold the presidency at the time. Under fire, the bureaucrats have retreated to their fortress. But it is not the

[CTRL] Russians thrash their drug takers to stop addiction
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Russians thrash their drug takers to stop addiction Mark Franchetti, Yekaterinburg THE teenage heroin addict knew what would happen when his mother brought him to the City Without Drugs rehabilitation centre. He had heard about the beatings given to new arrivals. It was just after midnight when his turn came. Accompanied by another young addict, he was taken in silence from a damp, overcrowded cellar where he had briefly been held and escorted to a derelict house nearby. He was strapped face down to a narrow bed and his trousers were pulled down. Moments later the screaming began. The treatment he received is meted out by City Without Drugs, a group that has declared war on narcotics in the industrial city of Yekaterinburg, 900 miles east of Moscow. The group's founders, three wealthy businessmen, claim remarkable success in curing addiction - but the cure is intimidating in the extreme. Standing in darkness on either side of the teenager's bed, the guards pulled out leather belts and folded them for extra thickness. They then beat his buttocks, taking it in turns to strike while his cries grew louder and more desperate with each passing minute. One of the assailants used a cigarette lighter to inspect red buckle marks on raw flesh. Satisfied, he barked a few threats and called for his next victim. The second addict, who had been lying terrified on an adjacent bed, was beaten without delay. At one point the pain was so great that he passed out. His tormentors hit him in the face to bring him round and resumed the thrashing. By the end of the session each had received 300 lashes; both had to be helped back to the cellar, where they were to spend the rest of their first week at the centre. On the first day we beat them with belts until their buttocks turn blue, boasted Igor Varov, one of the three businessmen behind City Without Drugs. Every week we have to buy a new belt because they go too soft, but we have been impressed with the quality of Gucci belts. Drug addicts are animals who have lost all sense of values. This way, the next time they think about getting a fix they remember the pain of the thrashing rather than the rush of the drugs. It's very effective. You cannot solve this with mild manners - you need tough measures. It was two years ago that Varov, one of the richest men in Yekaterinburg, and his partners launched their campaign against the drug menace. They said they had been forced to take matters into their own hands because the local authorities had failed to address a level of addiction that is among the worst in Russia. Their followers mounted ferocious punitive raids on drug dealers. One suspected dealer was tied to a tree with a sign saying he was poisoning the city's youth. Others had their legs broken or their homes set on fire. But such was the demand for places at the rehabilitation centre that a second one has opened. After their initial beating, addicts spend their first few weeks handcuffed to a bed, left to face their withdrawal symptoms with nothing stronger than bread and water. Later the inmates are put to work chopping down trees or labouring. Nobody is allowed to leave during the treatment, which lasts a year. The few who have tried to escape have been brought back and punished. Former inmates who test positive for drugs are also subjected to beatings. Before handing over their children, parents are required to sign a form absolving the managers of responsibility for any harm that might be done. Some 200 young addicts are under their supervision. Varov claims his methods have cured 50 former addicts in less than 18 months, several of whom have stayed on to work at the centre. Drug consumption and trafficking in the city have also dropped sharply, he says. Many condemn the methods. Police officers have gathered evidence of inmates being beaten with batons and sticks. They have also recorded testimony from addicts who claim to have been handcuffed to iron bars and left dangling. Such allegations are denied by the centres. Andrei, 20, who was treated at the centre and is too afraid of reprisals to give his full name, described how he tried to escape from one centre but was beaten so badly that he spent three weeks in hospital and was scarred for life. I was made to lie on the floor. Then two guys, one with a rubber baton and another with a wooden handle from a spade, beat me until I was unconscious, he said. I was then left to hang handcuffed for three days from a wall. They are sadists. They love the power - that's what it is all about.

'What's the Dif'? Perhaps there's a library in your town, you might avail yourself of its facilities, and educate yourself somewhat in these matters. It's not true that the Baptists molested all those young girls in that town. No, the priests and nuns do not sleep together. It's a lie that they found all those newborn babies buried in the Catholic Convent basement... WHEN will the numbskulls who write this garbage EVER LEARN? And when will the fools who read it and believe it realize that these psychotics are sick, and are doing these things simply to divide Americans any way they can. This supposed female viscously lies in her pitiful quotation of the "ritual." "She" hasn't a clue about which "she" speaks. "Her" husband running off after one month says alot about her role as a wife and woman. Yes, "David" is a truth teller all right - and so is "Name Withheld." A most credible witness, to air "her" dirty laundry, in a venue such as this, anonymously. What a heroic American. Friends, don't fall for this hogwash. It's junk. Concentrate on our real problems.

I was raised Mormon here in Fairbanks, Alaska. I was married in the Salt Lake Temple in April 1980. The ceremonies, word for word, were exactly the same as the Masonic rituals. I especially was disgusted by the part of the ritual where I was told that my husband would have to "bring me into heaven" - I could not get there by myself, no matter how good I was. My husband ran off with an underage hooker one month after we returned from the temple, and informed me that I must remain married to him, because he wanted to be able to "get some" from me any time he was bored with the hooker. The church told me, when I complained to them, that I must do as he said, and that I could not divorce him. Well, I knew where the court house was, so I got my divorce, anyway and left the church in the dust.

Better check some stats on Utah. And yes, there are NO mormon towns. You're right, it SEEMS to you that the entire state of Utah is "pretty much mormon" - but, check again. You folks are confusing the 1940 movie "Brigham Young", some statements by a "former mormon", the donneybrook regarding some desert town, non mormon polygamists with the reality of 2001 America.
