New York, NY -- Defend Palestine --- Sunday, September 23, 2001

The visit of Ariel Sharon and other top Israeli war criminals to New York
City
on Sunday, September 23 cannot be ignored. This visit of top Israeli
politicians and the giant war rally for Israel planned for New York on
September 23 are an effort to gain public support and to increase the more
than
$10 million dollars a day of U.S. funding for Israel's brutal occupation
and
repression.

Arial Sharon was found guilty of the September 1982 massacre at the Sabra
and
Shatila refugee camps during the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. More than
2,000
Palestinians, mostly women and children were massacred. As Prime Minister,
his
crimes continue to this day. His visit comes on the one-year anniversary
of the
heroic Al Aqsa Intifada.

It is urgent that we show our united opposition to all those who are
applauding
these war criminals.

We urge:

All people who support the rights of the Palestinian people. . .

All people who support human rights. . .

All people who oppose racism and oppression. . . to protest this visit of
War
Criminal Ariel Sharon.

Thousands strong we will demand:

End U.S aid to Israel

End Israel's Illegal Occupation of Palestine

Right of Return for Palestinians

Right of Palestinians to a sovereign state with Jerusalem as capitol

Stand with Palestine -- Sunday, September 23

Gather at Times Square 1: PM -- March on the Israeli Mission

Palestine, Israel and the Arab-Israeli Conflict
A Primer
Back to Table of Contents
The British Mandate in Palestine
By the early years of the 20th century, Palestine was becoming a trouble

   spot of competing territorial claims and political interests. The Ottoman
Empire was weakening, and European powers were entrenching their grip

   on areas in the eastern Mediterranean, including Palestine. During 1915-
16, as World War I was underway, the British High Commissioner in Egypt,
Sir Henry McMahon, secretly corresponded with Husayn ibn `Ali, the
patriarch of the Hashemite family and Ottoman governor of Mecca and
Medina. McMahon convinced Husayn to lead an Arab revolt against the
Ottoman Empire, which was aligned with Germany against Britain and
France in the war. McMahon promised that if the Arabs supported Britain in
the war, the British government would support the establishment of an
independent Arab state under Hashemite rule in the Arab provinces of the
Ottoman Empire, including Palestine. The Arab revolt, led by T. E. Lawrence
("Lawrence of Arabia") and Husayn's son Faysal, was successful in
defeating the Ottomans, and Britain took control over much of this area
during World War I.
Britain   made other promises during the war that conflicted with the
Husayn-McMahon understandings.
But Britain made other promises during the war that conflicted with the

   Husayn-McMahon understandings. In 1917, the British Foreign Minister,

 Lord Arthur Balfour, issued a declaration (the Balfour Declaration)
announcing his government's support for the establishment of "a Jewish
national home in Palestine." A third promise, in the form of a secret
agreement, was a deal that Britain and France struck between themselves to
carve up the Arab provinces of the Ottoman Empire and divide control of the
region.
After the war, Britain and France convinced the new League of Nations
(precursor to the United Nations), in which they were the dominant powers,
to grant them quasi-colonial authority over former Ottoman territories. The
British and French regimes were known as mandates. France obtained a
mandate over Syria, carving out Lebanon as a separate state with a (slight)
Christian majority. Britain obtained a mandate over the areas which now
comprise Israel, the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and Jordan.
In 1921, the British divided this region in two: east of the Jordan River

 became the Emirate of Transjordan, to be ruled by Faysal's brother
'Abdullah, and west of the Jordan River became the Palestine Mandate. This
was the first time in modern history that Palestine became a unified political
entity.
Arabs   were angered by Britain's failure to fulfill its promise to create

   an independent Arab state.
Throughout the region, Arabs were angered by Britain's failure to fulfill its
promise to create an independent Arab state, and many opposed British and
French control as a violation of their right to self-determination. In Palestine,
the situation was more complicated because of the British promise to

  support the creation of a Jewish national home. The rising tide of European
Jewish immigration, land purchases and settlement in Palestine generated

 increasing resistance by Palestinian Arab peasants, journalists and

political figures. They feared that this would lead eventually to the

establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. Palestinian Arabs opposed
the British Mandate because it thwarted their aspirations for self-rule,

 and opposed massive Jewish immigration because it threatened their
position in the country.
In 1920 and 1921, clashes broke out between Arabs and Jews in which
roughly equal numbers of both groups were killed. In the 1920s, when the
Jewish National Fund purchased large tracts of land from absentee Arab
landowners, the Arabs living in these areas were evicted. T

WSWS : News & Analysis : Middle East
The political significance of Israel’s assassination policy
By the WSWS editorial board
7 September 2001
Back to screen version| Send this link by email | Email the author
It is time to call things by their right name and expose what is taking place
on the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Israel, with the support of the United
States, is carrying out a policy of assassinations that has as its aim the
destruction of the political infrastructure of the Palestinian national movement.
The claim that Palestinian leaders are being stalked and killed to preempt
terrorist acts is little more than a cover for a policy with far broader aims. The
Israeli state is employing the most sophisticated military and technological
means to decapitate the leadership and terrorize the entire Palestinian
population. The basic objective is to prevent at all costs the emergence of an
independent Palestinian state.
The Bush administration knows full well that Israel’s claim to be using
targeted killings only as a defensive tactic against imminent terrorist attacks
is a lie. The US government, the American media and the bulk of the liberal
establishment are complicit in a policy of state murder.
Events of the past two weeks have illuminated the real motives behind the
series of assassinations carried out by Israel over the past year. On August
27 Israeli helicopters fired two laser-guided missiles into the West Bank
office of Abu Ali Mustafa, the leader of the Popular Front for the Liberation of
Palestine. Mustafa, one of the top five officials of the Palestine Liberation
Organization, was the highest-ranking Palestinian to be eliminated in the
recent wave of Israeli assassinations.
Four days later Israeli forces attempted to murder the head of the
Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, Khayis Abu Leila. Anti-tank
missiles smashed into the home of the DFLP leader in the West Bank town
of Ramallah, but Leila was not at home at the time.
The Israeli bourgeoisie is the consummate practitioner of Realpolitikin its
most extreme and brutal form. No other state in the world so openly defends
assassination and mass repression as legitimate instruments of rule. Israel
uses the most advanced technological means—satellite-based
communications, intelligence gathering and targeting; smart missiles; state-
of-the-art attack helicopters—to track down and kill its leading political
opponents among the Palestinians. Never before has advanced technology
been used in so open and concentrated a manner to eliminate an entire
political class.
By such means Israel seeks to render impossible any organized and
politically directed struggle against its occupation of Palestinian lands.
Palestinian leaders are compelled to move daily from safe house to safe
house to avoid being exterminated. They are unable to hold meetings. Their
communications—via telephone, email, fax—are monitored and disrupted.
They are forced into a semi-underground existence under conditions in which
the enemy enjoys a massive preponderance of military and economic power.
In this manner Israel seeks to disperse and ultimately wipe out the leaders of
all anti-Zionist organizations in the occupied territories and throughout the
Arab world. The message from the Israeli authorities is clear: no one will
survive who does not secure the approval of the Israeli state.
The recourse to state murder is, in the first instance, the response of the
Israeli establishment to the eruption of mass resistance in the occupied
West Bank and Gaza Strip. The second intifada began last September
following the collapse of the Camp David Israeli-Palestinian summit and
subsequent Israeli provocations.
The present policy follows a definite pattern. In April 1988, some four months
after the outbreak of the first intifada in the occupied territories, an Israeli
death squad broke into the home of Abu Jihad in the Tunisian capital of Tunis
and gunned down the Palestinian military and political leader. Abu Jihad,
born Khalil Al-Wazir, was a founder of Al Fatah and Yasser Arafat’s closest
political associate.
Abu Jihad played a central role in organizing and directing the intifada from
the PLO’s headquarters-in-exile in Tunis. His assassination at the hands of
the Israeli military and Mossad secret police was aimed at the head of the
popular uprising.
In 1997 the Israeli newspaper Maariv revealed that then-deputy military chief
Ehud Barak ran the assassination operation from a command center on a
navy missile ship off the shore of Tunis. Barak became prime minister in May
1999 after running as the Labor Party candidate and defeating Likud Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a landslide vote. He was voted out of office
and replaced by Likud hard-liner Ariel Sharon last February.
Barak’s role in the assassination of Abu Jihad makes it clear that all wings of
the Israeli Zionist establishment, the so-called doves as well as the open
supporters

 With all eyes on Israel and the occupied territories, a similar conflict is
heating up in North Africa--and the United States is taking the wrong side.
Reversing years of U.S. policy, former Secretary  of State James Baker III is
currently pressuring the United Nations  to recognize the Moroccan
annexation of Western Sahara. This is  a dangerous shift, rewarding
aggression while exempting our ally  from international law.
Since invading Western Sahara in 1975, Morocco has systematically

 expelled several hundred thousand natives, 160,000 of whom have

  spent 25 years living in vast desert refugee camps. Almost immediately,
the United Nations declared the invasion illegal. But Morocco justified

  its occupation as part of a quasi-divine reunification of the once-divided

 nation and instead opted for 16 years of warfare against the
Polisario  Front, a pro-independence group of the native Sahrawi. At the

 same time, Morocco also began moving settlers into the area.
In 1991, the United Nations finally brokered a cease-fire by promising

 the indigenous
population the right to vote on their

fate. They are still waiting for that opportunity. Meanwhile, Moroccan settlers--
estimated to number 390,000, according to government figures--continue to
flow in, large
numbers of whom receive a stipend simply for
residing in the area.
The government tries to stack the deck by
arguing that these new arrivals
should vote in the referendum.


Now, France--whose colonial legacy ties it to Morocco--is pushing  to delay
the plebiscite, if not drop it entirely. As U.N. envoy  to Western Sahara,
Baker is having considerable success convincing  the United Nations and the
United States to renege on prior commitments.  "It's a huge shift indeed"
says John Damis, professor of political  science at Portland State University.
"For years the mantra on all  sides was 'referendum.' But suddenly things
have changed."
Ties between the United States and Morocco always have been strong.

While secretary of state under Reagan, Baker was helped consistently
by former Moroccan King Hassan II. In 1986, Hassan invited Shimon

Peres to a secret meeting in Morocco, breaking with Arab solidarity

   on the Palestinian front. Hassan also remained silent when his radar

   picked up American planes on their way across the Mediterranean

to bomb Muammar Qaddafi in 1987. In the years before that, the old
king always made Moroccan troops available to act as mercenaries

   for French policing actions in West and Central Africa.
Morocco has thrown huge sums over the years at buying Beltway influence.
In 1998, Morocco doled out $100,000 per month to Cassidy  Associates, one
of Washington's largest lobby shops, to help  influence congressional opinion
on the matter. The Sahrawi have  lacked similar influence on Capitol Hill.
In June 2000, five U.N. officials commented that the referendum  could be
held immediately if the upper levels of the United Nations  would simply stop
caving to Moroccan pressure. But the Moroccan  stance on the referendum
hardened even more in January when the  United Nations published the voter
list, which disqualified more  than 100,000 Moroccan settlers. Additionally
important was the discovery  by the French press of confidential government
documents that instructed  Moroccan settlers on how to disguise themselves
as Sahrawi to qualify  for voter rolls.
Some are still standing by international law on the issue. Sens. Edward
Kennedy (D-Massachusetts), James Inhofe (R-Oklahoma), Patty  Murray (D-
Washington), Bob Smith (R-New Hampshire) and John Kerry  (D-
Massachusetts) recently sent a letter to Secretary of State Colin  Powell
reaffirming their commitment to the original U.N. position  that the people of
the Western Sahara have a right to a fair and free referendum. Likewise,
most of the members of the Organization  of African Unity have recognized
the legitimacy of the indigenous  population's claims to Western Sahara.
Supporting Morocco's invasion sends a dangerous message to rogue

 leaders. It also fosters internal instability as Morocco diverts  an
estimated $2 million daily toward militarizing its border and  implanting
settlers rather than supporting the needs of its domestic  population, 17
percent of whom live below the poverty line of $1  per day. According to Karin
von Hippell, professor in the department  of war studies at the University of
London, Morocco spends a quarter  of its total government revenue on
defense.
Whether the case is Iraq in Kuwait, Indonesia in East Timor or  Israel in
Palestine, international law clearly opposes expansionism  and protects the
right of self-determination. It remains to be seen  whether the United States
will attempt to let another ally off the  hook.

Report: U.S. Encouraging China to Build Missiles, Nuclear Weapons
Phil Brennan
Monday, September 3, 2001
A report in the New York Times over the Labor Day weekend that the
Bush Administration will turn a blind eye to Red China's
modernization of its nuclear missile arsenal has stirred concern on
Capitol Hill where two Senators expressed alarm that the alleged
new policy will encourage the Chinese to vastly increase their
missile fleet.
China reportedly has some two dozen aging missiles aimed at the
United States and some experts predict that their number could
increase tenfold over the next 10 years.

According to the Times' sources, by giving Beijing a go ahead to do
what they are going to do under any circumstances the
administration might be able to convince the Chinese that the
planned U.S. nuclear missile defense system (NMD) in not aimed at
them but at the so-called rogue nations.

White House spokesman Ari Fleischer denied that the Bush
administration was courting China's support of the missile defense
system in exchange for U.S. acceptance of a nuclear or military
buildup by Beijing, as the Times reported.

The Times' sources also told them that the U.S. would not object to
continued nuclear testing in mainland China

The paper reported that the new approach appeared to mark a
significant change in American policy in which the U.S. discouraged
China and all other nations from increasing the size or quality of
their nuclear arsenals, and from nuclear tests of any kind.

White House sources, however, reply that the Chinese intend to go
ahead and increase their small nuclear missile fleet no matter what
Washington says, so we might just as well encourage them.

"We know the Chinese will enhance their nuclear capability anyway,
and we are going to say to them, `We're not going to tell you not
to do it,' " a senior administration official deeply involved in
formulating the strategy told the Times. "Why panic? They are
modernizing anyway."

President Bush's national security adviser, Condoleezza Rice, told
the Washington Post the administration soon would begin talks to
try to convince China it would not be threatened by the [NMD]
shield and should not aim more missiles at the United States.

"We want to engage China on issues regarding missile defense, and
we really haven't," Rice told the Post. "We want to have serious
talks with them about why this is not a threat to them. We want to
have serious talks with them about why we think stability in the
Asia-Pacific region would be well served by this capability."

"The United States is not about to propose to the Chinese that in
exchange for Chinese acceptance of missile defense, we will accept
a nuclear buildup.

"We have told the Chinese that the missile defense system is not
aimed at them, and we intend to make that point more forcefully,"
she said. "We do not believe that there is any reason for the
Chinese to build up their nuclear forces, but their modernization
has been under way for some time."

The Associated Press reported that the White House will brief China
on the NMD before President Bush visits Beijing next month as part
of the U.S. attempts to convince other countries that the proposed
missile shield is not a threat.

"This is part of the administration's outreach to China and other
nations such as Russia to discuss with them the reason why we are
developing a missile defense system and how it is designed to
protect us from rogue nations or accidental launches," Fleischer
told the AP.

"It is something we are hoping they will support because it is not
aimed at China," he said. "The president thinks it is important to
consult with our allies and other nations."

The White House is pursuing missile defense "separate and apart"
from the issue of China's desire to expand its limited arsenal of
nuclear missiles, Fleischer added.

"The United States has made it clear and continues to make it clear
that a military buildup there is not necessary." He also said there
was no change in U.S. policy on the testing of nuclear weapons, now
precluded by a worldwide moratorium. "We have no plans to resume
testing," Fleischer said.

"I would not like to see the Chinese expand their nuclear
capabilities," said Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa. "I think it is much
too soon to even think about matters that offset our missile
defense."

China is "the coming colossus of the world and a superpower,"
Specter said Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation." "I would not want to
see them become any more powerful in the nuclear line. I think we
ought to formulate our policy in many different ways to try to
avoid just that."

Joseph R. Biden Jr. (D-Del), chairman of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee said. "This is absolutely absurd. It shows that
these guys will go to any length to build a national missile
defense, even one they can't define. Their headlong, headstrong,
irrational and theological desire to build a missile defense sends
the wrong message to the

 Lyme Disease: The Unknown Epidemic
Part 1 of 2 (Part 2)

by D. J. Fletcher and Tom Klaber

Millions of people who are diagnosed with multiple sclerosis,
fibromyalgia, Alzheimer's, chronic fatigue syndrome and other
degenerative diseases could have Lyme Disease causing or
contributing to their condition.

Forget just about everything you think you know about Lyme disease.

It is not a rare disease, it is epidemic. It is not just
tick-borne; it can also be transmitted by other insects, including
fleas, mosquitoes and mites--and by human-to-human contact.

Neither is Lyme usually indicated by a bull's-eye rash; this is
found in only a minority of cases. And, except when it is diagnosed
at a very early stage, Lyme is rarely cured by a simple course of
antibiotics. Finally, Lyme is not just a disease that makes you
"tired and achy"--it can utterly destroy a person's life and
ultimately be fatal.

Lyme disease, in fact, might be the most insidious--and least
understood--infectious disease of our day. "If it weren't for
AIDS," says Nick Harris, Ph.D., President of IgeneX, Inc., a
research and testing laboratory in Palo Alto, California, "Lyme
would be the number one infectious disease in the United States and
Western Europe."

Lyme disease was first recognized in the United States in 1975,
after a mysterious outbreak of arthritis near Lyme, Connecticut. It
wasn't until 1982 that the spirochete that causes Lyme was
identified. It was subsequently named Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb), in
honor of Willy Burgdorfer, Ph.D., a pioneer researcher.

Many now see the disease, also called Lyme borreliosis, as more
than a simple infection, but rather as a complex illness that can
consist of other co-infections, especially of the parasitic
pathogens Babesia and Ehrlichia.

Animal studies have shown that in less than a week after being
infected, the Lyme spirochete can be deeply embedded inside
tendons, muscles, tissue, the heart and the brain.

"Of the more than 5,000 children I've treated, 240 have been born
with the disease," says Dr. Jones, who specializes in Pediatric and
Adolescent Medicine. "Twelve children who've been breast-fed have
subsequently developed Lyme.

Bb can be transmitted transplacentally, even with in vitro
fertilization; I've seen eight children infected in this way.
People from Asia who come to me with the classic Lyme rash have
been infected by fleas and gnats."

Gregory Bach, D.O., presented a study on transmission via semen at
the American Psychiatric Association meeting in November, 2000. He
confirmed Bb DNA in semen using the PCR test (Polymerase Chain
Reaction).

Dr. Bach calls Bb "a brother" to the syphilis spirochete because of
their genetic similarities. For that reason, when he treats a Lyme
patient in a relationship, he often treats the spouse; otherwise,
he says, they can just pass the Bb back and forth, reinfecting each
other.

Dr. Tang adds other avenues of infection: "Transmission may also
occur via blood transfusion and through the bite of mosquitoes or
other insects." Dr. Cowden contends that unpasteurized goat or cow
milk can infect a person with Bb.

Unreliable Testing

What is the reason for the discrepancy between the government's
statistics and the experience of front-line physicians? Says Dr.
Jones, "The CDC criteria was developed only for surveillance; it
was never meant for diagnosis.

Lyme is a clinical diagnosis. The test evidence may be used to
support a clinical diagnosis, but it doesn't prove one has Lyme.
About 50% of patients I've seen have been seronegative [blood test
negative] for Lyme but meet all the clinical criteria."

Most of the standard tests used to detect Lyme are notoriously
unreliable. Explains Dr. Harris, "The initial thing patients
usually get is a Western Blot antibody test. This test is not
positive immediately after Bb exposure, and only 60% or 70% of
people ever show antibodies to Bb."

Dr. Cowden favors two tests developed respectively by Dr. Whitaker
and by Lida Mattman, Ph.D., Director of the Nelson Medical Research
Institute in Warren, Michigan. However, both of these tests have
yet to win FDA approval for diagnostic use.

Explains Dr. Whitaker, "We have developed the Rapid Identification
of Bb (RIBb) test. A highly purified fluorescent antibody stain
specific for Bb is used to detect the organism. This test provides
results in 20 to 30 minutes, a key to getting the right treatment
started quickly."

Dr. Mattman's culture test also uses a fluorescent antibody
staining technique which allows her to study live cultures under a
fluorescent microscope. "When a person is sick," says Dr. Mattman,
"antibodies get tied up in the tissues, in what is called an immune
complex, and are not detected in the patient's blood plasma.

So it's not that the antibody isn't there or hasn't been produced;
it just isn't detectable. Thus, the tests which are based on

Welcome to NEA-dominated schoolhouse

 As millions of children head back to class this week, members of
the National Education Association will be at the schoolhouse door,
waiting to warp impressionable minds. Between them, the NEA and the
American Federation of Teachers (its ideological twin) represent
upward of 85 percent of the nation's public school teachers. In
terms of shaping the content of public education, the NEA is more
powerful than all the school committees and education boards in the
land.

As its 2001 national convention demonstrated, the NEA's platform is
indistinguishable from the agendas of the ACLU or People For the
American Way. Little wonder that last year the NEA sent more
delegates to the Democratic National Convention than the state of
California.

A popular button spotted at the association's Los Angeles assembly
read, "Jesus loves ya, Dubya, everyone else thinks you're an
(obscenity)." Thus do progressive educators teach tolerance and
show their respect for the office of president.

When it comes to protecting public education's monopoly status, the
NEA functions as a medieval guild. Predictably, the convention
passed resolutions deploring charter schools, vouchers, home
schooling and standardized tests, while demanding substantial
increases in education funding.

But the NEA also took stands on issues not remotely related to
education. It supported statehood for the District of Columbia,
comparable worth legislation, abortion and "proscriptive"
(confiscatory) gun control, but opposed official English and
space-based defense.

The NEA's political program translates into indoctrination in the
schools. In La-La land, the guild embraced multiculturalism, global
education, environmental education and race, gender and
sexual-orientation studies.

All of these courses are based on dubious premises and designed to
advance a cause. One side of the argument is treated as received
wisdom, the other essentially ignored.

In its resolution on environmental education, the NEA pledged to
push courses promoting "the concept of interdependence of humanity
and nature," "an awareness of ... population growth ... on human
survival" (but no consideration of the contributions of population
increases to productivity), "solutions to such problems as ...
global warming, ozone depletion" and acid rain (which science has
yet to establish as problems) and participation in Earth Day
celebrations.

All that's missing is a demand that Al Gore's "Earth in the
Balance" be adopted as a textbook and a call for teachers to
collect contributions for Earth First.

In another of its knee-jerk resolutions, the NEA declared "the
struggles of working men and women to establish unions ... should
be an integral part of the curriculum in our schools." They're not
talking about teaching the history of organized labor, but getting
kids to love and trust union bosses.

In 1997, the California Federation of Teachers came up with a swell
way to introduce grade-schoolers to the Jimmy Hoffa worldview. The
federation is an AFT affiliate, but the curriculum it devised
(called "Yummy Pizza Company") has been endorsed by the NEA.

Kids role-play as workers who make pizzas. Management (the teacher)
cuts their wages and increases their hours. The children are then
encouraged to organize, engage in collective bargaining and go out
on strike. Since the NEA is the largest union in America, and its
members frequently strike for higher wages, there's more than a
little self-interest at work here.

Students are also given problems to solve. One involves a business
called "Kids for Hire," owned by Mr. Ink, which employs children to
cut lawns, wash cars and baby-sit. Ink pays them less than he
charges his customers (otherwise known as capitalism -- a concept
teachers, as government workers, are probably unfamiliar with). The
kids think it's unfair. Mr. Ink tells them to quit if they're
dissatisfied.

But he's the only employer who'll hire them, the lesson plan
instructs. (Are the kids incapable of offering these services on
their own?) Students are asked, "What do you think the children
should do?" Oh, go on strike, slash Ink's tires, throw rocks
through his windows, and beat up scabs.

Lenin said give me a child for the first five years of his life and
he'll be mine thereafter. The NEA has your child for 12 years.
Vouchers are looking better and better all the time.

[CTRL] Fw: The World's Most Unselfish Act (For Tenorlove)

[Amelia]

-Caveat Lector-

{{When my children were in school, I did a sort of home schooling
without realizing it.  I always took their lessons to the next step
while doing homework with them and supplied extra books on their
subjects.  Fortunately, we had a very extensive home library and
often had much of the subject matter at hand but it takes a parent
or someone suggesting the added reading and research. This paid off
later and I highly recommend it for they both were able to get many
college credits from Advance Placement tests when the time for that
arrived.  So, hats off to Tenorlove and all others who are doing
this! Amelia}}

The World's Most Unselfish Act
by Karen De Coster

I was at a baptism party for a friend's baby daughter, recently,
and met a couple of young girls who let it slip that they were
being homeschooled by their Mom. They were somewhat surprised by my
exuberant reaction, because, according to both of them, it is more
common that they would see signs of disdain upon an adult learning
of this fact.

"What are the reasons?" I asked. Well, it's the same-old, same-old
cliches that seem to appear, judging by the explanations of the two
girls. That is, people think that home-schooled kids cannot be
"properly socialized." Now this is quite amusing because it's just
so wantonly incorrect. Besides, it's an answer that reveals lazy
naivete and mere repetition of a popular aphorism. After all, what
else could someone so ignorant of the facts have to say about
homeschooling?

These ignoramuses just repeat the blather of the shameful media and
they recite the garble of the State: homeschooled kids don't have
friends, they can't learn normal social skills, and they are just
plain weird. It's the typical cop-out response to justify an
adult's selfishness, passivity, and or general inclination toward
irresponsibility. After all, if one is dumping their kids in the
midst of the four walls of the State, and for free, they don't want
it to appear that the parents of those homeschooled children may
have something over them.

Well, these parents do have something over those other folks.
Homeschooling parents, of course, are some of the most solid,
principled people you may ever meet. In fact, home schooling is the
most unselfish act that a parent can render unto his or her
children. The sacrifices that one makes to take on the
responsibility to teach, train, and endow their children with
requisite life skills at the expense of their own sweat and labor
are revealing. It reveals a great tenacity to want to enable your
children to grow up with a tailored scholastic experience outside
of the realm of collective brainwashing at the hands of a despotic
educational bureaucracy.

After all, it is the parents who must make all of the qualitative
education decisions; no longer is picking five classes out of a
4-page catalog and signing a permission form the only parental
responsibility. No longer does the parent dump the kids into an
unrestrained system that promises to provide for all their future
needs - from tutelage to psychological therapy to self-esteem to
condom handling. It is the parent that actually acts as the
fountainhead of truth and scholarship in a homeschool setting.

At this particular baptism party, the host of the party relayed to
me that the mother of the two homeschooled girls was literally
shocked when she heard that someone reacted favorably to her
homeschool situation in the presence of her girls. Upon meeting
her, and further discussion about her kids' education, she affirmed
the overall contemptuous reaction to her decision to actually raise
and teach her kids herself. It is shameful that the tendency toward
having the Public Nipple in every aspect of our lives actually
breeds contempt for those who choose to shove the nipple aside, and
take on the more difficult, yet rewarding task of detachment from
the Welfare State's feedbox.

On the subject of socializing, the typical home-school family does
not live on 100 acres in Idaho, 30 miles from the nearest patch of
civilized life, with the organic herb garden, home gun range, and
paramilitary parents in camouflage pants. Homeschooled kids live in
neighborhoods like most other kids do. They play with other
children and their siblings just like your average public school
drone. They join sports teams and they may take ballet classes.
They are even more likely to participate in church-related groups.
The difference is, they are not packed like lemmings into a
classroom with thirty other incompatible and unequal ragamuffins,
while trying to learn at a pace that is deemed "average" and
sufficient for that individual child's age group.

It was the malignant philosopher John Dewey who stated that only
public education could aim for and accomplish greater social
competence for children, and therefore, determine a proper living
environment and socialization nature as the child grows into
adulthood. Let me mention that John Dewey was a diehard
collectivist,

 Veneman Responds to PETA's FMD Threats
 by Darcy Maulsby

 Agriculture Secretary Ann Veneman has told a Wisconsin legislator
that the federal government will do everything in its power to make
sure an animal rights group does not spread foot-and-mouth disease
(FMD) to the U.S. livestock industry.

 Veneman responded to Congressman Mark Green's (R-Wis.) concerns
about
animal terrorism in the United  State during the upcoming World
Dairy
Expo in Wisconsin, reports Wisconsin Ag Connection. In a letter to
 Green this week, Veneman said USDA and the federal government will
do
everything possible to make sure the People for the Ethical
Treatment
of Animals (PETA) does not spread FMD.

 Monitoring PETA
 Veneman's comments were in response to Green's letter dated June
5,
in which Green expressed his frustration with comments from PETA
activist Bruce Friedrich. Friedrich said "the introduction of FMD
in
the U.S. would  be something we would welcome." Earlier this
summer,
Friedrich threatened to tour Europe and the United Kingdom, and
then
attend World Dairy Expo in Madison, Wis., to spread FMD.

 "What this guy has suggested is absolute insanity," Green stated
in
his June 5 letter to Veneman. "We have to take every precaution to
make sure his sick foot-and-mouth fantasy never becomes reality."

 Veneman's letter stated that PETA is being closely watched and
that
the FMD threat is being taken seriously,  noted Wisconsin Ag
Connection.

 World Dairy Expo has established a biosecurity plan to control the
risk FMD and other animal health threats.

[The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: 9.6.2001]
Acting on a bad tip, Cobb SWAT team
bursts into home; officer's gun goes off

By CRAIG SCHNEIDER
Atlanta Journal-Constitution Staff Writer


Ben Gray / AJC
John Bailey stands by the bullethole caused by a SWAT machine gun
that accidentally discharged.

 Compare the faces below
The Cobb County police thought they had a killer cornered Sunday
and they didn't want to waste time. They didn't want to tip him
off. They didn't want to endanger themselves or the public. And
they didn't want him to get away.

But the 3 a.m. raid -- in which police targeted the wrong man, and
an officer fired his gun accidentally -- raises questions of how
far police should go before bursting into people's lives.

John Bailey was relaxing in his home Sunday when he suddenly found
himself handcuffed, with guns pointed at his head and police
combing through his apartment.

He had just come home from a Lynyrd Skynyrd concert, and the
evening was winding down at 3 a.m. The 41-year-old computer
programmer was having some drinks with a friend when the knock on
the door came, bringing with it the "scariest moment of my life."

It had been a different evening for the Cobb County police. They
had received a tip from a manager of Bailey's apartment complex.
The woman said a man who rented an apartment matched a photo of a
fugitive shown that evening on TV's "America's Most Wanted."

Armed with a warrant, the police SWAT team descended on his red
front door. Bailey had just put some fish and chips in the oven
when the knock came. There were a handful of police officers, he
recalled, looking like a military unit. They had rifles,
night-vision goggles, helmets.


John Bailey, left, was mistaken by a TV viewer for James Detmer,
right. "They could have just looked at me through a pair of
binoculars and seen I wasn't him," says an angry Bailey.
The police barked orders at him. He was handcuffed and pushed
around, he said. They were talking about somebody killing his
father with a hammer. "And they were treating me like I was him,"
said Bailey.

Unfortunately, they had the wrong man.

Making matters worse, an officer's submachine gun went off
inadvertently. The bullet shot through a metal closet door, through
the bathroom wall, and put a hole in Bailey's deodorant stick
before landing in the bathtub.

"It freaked me out," he said.

No one was injured in Sunday's early morning raid on Bailey's
apartment near Vinings. Police are reviewing the incident, and it
is unknown whether any disciplinary action or procedural changes
will result, said police spokesman Dana Pierce.

When Cobb County police believe they know a fugitive's whereabouts,
they say they must balance the desire to move fast to protect the
public from a criminal, against the time needed to verify they've
got the right man. If they have the right man, every minute may be
critical. If they don't, they'll apologize.

Gerry Weber, a legal director with the American Civil Liberties
Union of Georgia, was critical of the raid. Police should have been
more suspicious of a tip received from the airing of a television
show, he said, and they should have taken greater pains to ensure
the man in question was the man they wanted.

Fugitive-chasing television shows create a furor to catch the
criminals they profile, he said. "People want to be famous. They
want to be the one who catches the guy on 'America's Most Wanted,'
" he said.

Bailey, who moved to the complex three months ago, said the police
should have taken more time to obtain his name from the apartment
manager. They could have checked his references on the lease. They
could have checked his car tag. They could have talked to his
neighbors or relatives.

"They could have just looked at me through a pair of binoculars and
seen I wasn't him," Bailey said.

However, Pierce said the SWAT team acted quickly but not
haphazardly. Stressing the fugitive was deemed armed and dangerous,
he said, "You want to get to him as quickly as possible. What if we
would have waited? A fugitive could then have injured or killed
somebody else."

The phone tip came to police Saturday night, shortly after the
program profiled James Detmer, a 44-year-old Kansas man who
allegedly killed his father with the claw end of a hammer in
Missouri. Days before, Detmer had fled after making bond on a
charge that he tried to set a woman on fire with gasoline.

By 2 a.m., the police had persuaded a judge to issue a warrant.
Police took a photo of the wanted man to the apartment manager, who
again said she recognized the fugitive. Both Detmer and Bailey are
about 40 years old, and both are about 5-foot-10 and 240 pounds.

Bailey was handcuffed, Pierce said, "to protect the officers and
himself" until it could be determined he was not the fugitive.

Japan

Reform on hold
Sep 6th 2001 | TOKYO

>From The Economist print edition

Junichiro Koizumi flounders as the economy worsens

 AN AUTUMN of reform is what Junichiro Koizumi promised Japan's desperate voters. Yet 
two weeks after the new
prime minister returned from his holidays in the cool of the mountains, there is no 
sign that one is on the
way. Like so many of his predecessors, Mr Koizumi seems to be gently subsiding into 
Japan's familiar political
quicksand.

Central reforms are being abandoned, say his critics, or neutered. In anticipation of 
a mountain of
legislation, the Diet (parliament) was supposed to have reconvened in August. Now, it 
will not start work
until the end of September. There is still no word from Mr Koizumi about his policy 
priorities, despite a
promise that he would draw up a list by August. The stockmarket is plunging, the banks 
are weakening by the
day and the economic recession deepens. But half of the government's most crucial 
ministers are travelling
abroad. As for Mr Koizumi himself, he is holed up in his official residence, say 
political gossips, listening
to opera.

Something Wagnerian would go well with the terrible news outside. Big exporters, like 
Hitachi and Toshiba, are
announcing huge layoffs. Small-firm confidence continues to plunge. Output is falling 
rapidly and deflation is
deepening. Statistics due out on September 7th may, it is feared, show that between 
April and June the economy
shrank by 4% or more at an annualised rate. With confidence in the government's 
policies ebbing rapidly, the
markets are abuzz with talk of a fresh financial crisis. Since Mr Koizumi's return to 
Tokyo, the stockmarket
has fallen by nearly 10%, a drop so far interrupted only by hopeful rumours that Hakuo 
Yanagisawa, Mr
Koizumi's minister in charge of the bank clean-up, will soon resign.

Mr Yanagisawa is now Mr Koizumi's number-one problem. Mr Koizumi went to the voters 
before the election in
July for Japan's upper house with a promise to clean up the banks within two to three 
years. But the plan for
doing so that Mr Yanagisawa has been touting round Europe and America this week looks 
almost identical to the
one he drew up in April, under the discredited administration of Yoshiro Mori. The 
markets condemned it at the
time. Not surprisingly, they are passing the same judgment now.

At the heart of the matter lies the fact that no one believes the government's figures 
for the amount of bank
loans that could turn sour. Goldman Sachs, an American investment bank, thinks the 
true number may be an
eye-popping ¥170 trillion ($1.4 trillion), seven times the official figure. By pushing 
bank shares ever lower,
the markets are saying that the banks are short of capital and need public money. But 
Mr Yanagisawa will not
countenance that. His staff are back in siege mentality, railing at Goldman Sachs and 
suchlike and furious
with the IMF, whose request last week to inspect Japan's financial system got a dusty 
response.

Even by Japanese standards, Mr Koizumi has shown himself to be remarkably insensitive 
to these market signals.
It took him a whole week to "correct" Mr Yanagisawa's all-too-honest gaffe that it 
would take not three years
but seven to clean up the banks, by which time the damage had been done. Among cabinet 
members, only Heizo
Takenaka, Mr Koizumi's economics minister, retains the confidence of the markets. But 
Mr Takenaka is an
academic economist, and is not faring well among the insiders of Nagatacho, Tokyo's 
political district. Mr
Takenaka wants Mr Yanagisawa sacked. But Mr Yanagisawa has far more political clout

Damaging cabinet divisions are appearing elsewhere. Despite the awful economic news, 
Mr Koizumi is still
trying to push ahead with his dubious plan to tighten government spending. In fact, as 
cabinet heavyweights
like Takeo Hiranuma, the economy, trade and industry minister, have defied the prime 
minister and called for a
big emergency budget, Mr Koizumi has been upping the stakes. Now Mr Koizumi says he 
wants to bring forward his
plan to cap government bond issues at ¥30 trillion from next year to this year, which 
would tighten public
finances almost immediately. In recession, however, Mr Koizumi will have to issue more 
bonds simply to cover
the government's tax shortfall. Already the Ministry of Finance is indicating that 
this year's tax revenues
may fall below target.

Other battles that Mr Koizumi persists in fighting look less wrong-headed than simply 
irrelevant. While the
banks burn, Mr Koizumi has been prodding his minister in charge of public-sector 
reform, Nobuteru Ishihara
(also travelling abroad), to crack the whip over the government's hugely ambitious 
privatisation programme.
The true scale of this task became a little clearer this week. Of the 74 public-sector 
corporations that Mr
Koizumi wants abolished or privatised, the bureaucrats agreed to part with just four, 
all of which the
government ha

Israeli students defy military call-up

BY STEPHEN FARRELL

SIXTY-TWO Israeli high school students refused yesterday to do military
service in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, accusing their Government of
aggressive and racist policies towards Palestinians.

In an open letter to Ariel Sharon, the Prime Minister, the teenagers,
who face two weeks in jail if they refuse when conscripted at 18, said
that their consciences prevented them from taking part in oppression.
"Land expropriation, arrests, executions without trial, house demolition,
closure, torture and the prevention of healthcare are only some of the
crimes the state of Israel carries out," they said. "We do not intend to
take part in the execution of this policy."

Shlomo Dror, a defence spokesman, said: "They have the right to say
what they think, but the moment they are part of the army they have to do
what they are told. In Britain nobody asks the soldiers if they want to serve
in the Falklands or Belfast."

Mr Sharon is said to be considering a military buffer zone to seal off
areas of the West Bank adjoining Israel amid mounting tension over
suicide bomb attacks.

Drug War Waco on FBI Chief Mueller's
First Day in Office

Forfeiture Stand-Off Ends in Two Deaths

 by Ellen Komp, anti-Drug War activist, 09/05/01

 Grover T. "Tom" Crosslin, 47, who owned Rainbow Farm campground in
 Newberg Township, Michigan, was shot and killed by an FBI "observer"
 on Monday, September 3 after a four-day standoff at the campground.
 One day later, Crosslin's roommate Rolland Eugene Rohm, 28, was
 fatally shot at the property by a Michigan State Police officer. Both
 men allegedly aimed guns at the law enforcement agents who shot them.

 According to news reports from local papers and the Associated Press,
 the situation began Friday when deputies went to the farm after
 neighbors said Crosslin was burning buildings on his property, which
 is the target of civil forfeiture proceedings. The fires "were set by
 Crosslin - not law enforcement," a statement earlier Monday
 expressing hope for a peaceful resolution said. "It should be noted
 forfeiture proceedings for this property had previously been
 initiated in May 2001 and Crosslin was aware of the fact he was in
 the process of losing Rainbow Farm," the statement said.

 "This drug war isn't a metaphor anymore. They're killing us now for
 resisting them," said attorney Brenda Grantland, President of the
 Board of Directors of FEAR (Forfeiture Endangers Americans Rights,
 http://www.fear.org.)

 Authorities arrested Crosslin and five others in May after a two-year
 investigation into allegations of marijuana use at the 34-acre
 campground. A court order issued in June prohibited Crosslin from
 having festival gatherings at the farm, whose Web site says it
 ''supports the medical, spiritual and responsible recreational uses
 of marijuana for a more sane and compassionate America.'' Police
 allege he violated the order by holding a festival August 17-18,
 which prompted the bond hearing.

 Crosslin, owner of Rainbow Farm since 1993, had been charged in May
 with manufacturing marijuana, more than 200 plants, a 15-year felony;
 maintaining a drug house, a two-year misdemeanor; and felony firearm,
 a five-year felony. Rohm was charged with manufacturing marijuana,
 maintaining a drug house and felony firearm.

 Crosslin was scheduled to appear in court Friday for a hearing to
 revoke his $150,000 bond. But instead he skipped the hearing and then
 allegedly set fire to buildings on his property, which he had stood
 to lose under the state's Drug Forfeiture Act. Police said an
 anonymous telephone caller told them the fires were set "to ambush
 law enforcement officers when they arrived in response to the fire.''

 It's believed Crosslin or Rohm fired shots at three aircraft that
 flew over the property. One of the aircraft, a helicopter used by
 WNDU-TV, Channel 16, South Bend, was damaged.

 The FBI had joined Cass County Sheriff's deputies and Michigan State
 Police on Sunday. On Monday, Crosslin had federal charges levied
 against him, resulting in the dispatch of FBI agents and a federal
 warrant against Crosslin on charges of attempted destruction of an
 aircraft and using a firearm to commit a felony. He was facing up to
 30 years in prison if convicted of those.

 Rohm's stepfather, John Livermore, said he and Rohm's mother drove
 all night from Tennessee to try to help police negotiate, but were
 never allowed to speak to Rohm, who Livermore said has a learning
 disability. Livermore said he believes Rohm left the house because he
 thought police were going to allow him to see his 12-year-old son,
 Robert. The boy had been taken from the campground and put into
 foster care by the Family Independence Agency after the drug arrests
 in May, according to Crosslin's attorney Dori Leo.

 Early Tuesday, Rohm had said he would surrender at 7 a.m. if his son
 were brought to see him, Cass County Sheriff Joseph Underwood, Jr.
 said. The sheriff said police were in the process of granting the
 request when shortly after 6 a.m., a fire was reported at the
 compound. Rohm was then seen leaving the residence with a long gun
 and walking into the yard, Underwood said. That's when the
 confrontation with police took place.

 Buzz Daily, 44, a Cass County farmer, said Crosslin and Rohm were
 known for their generosity. At Christmas, he said, they would drive
 their pickup truck into Vandalia and distribute gifts throughout the
 town of about 350 residents. They also would buy food and clothes for
 people staying at the campground, he said.

 Daily also lashed out at police, saying he could not imagine Crosslin
 or Rohm brandishing a weapon. "I'm surprised that with all the money
 (police) put into this, they didn't have any non-lethal means of

Maine gun group sues Million Mom March

Maine Today Staff report Sept. 5, 2001 Blethen Maine Newspapers Inc.

   A group of machine-gun enthusiasts who celebrate the weapon with a
gun shoot and expo in Maine every year has filed a lawsuit against the
Million Mom March, accusing a spokeswoman of defamation.

The Hiram Maxim Historical Society Inc., named after the Mainer
who invented the machine gun in 1883, claims in its lawsuit that Cathie
Whittenburg of the Southern Maine Chapter of the Million Mom March
made false statements that harmed the society.

   The society’s lawyer, Walter F. McKee, said Tuesday that his
client is a law-abiding organization that Whittenburg “essentially called
a bunch of terrorists.”

   Not so, said Whittenburg: “All I can say is that I am flabbergasted and
dumbfounded and I am not prepared to talk to the press at this time.”
But she added, “I guarantee the allegations against me are false.”

   The dispute goes back to July, when the society was holding its
annual extravaganza. Whittenburg was quoted in a July 21 Bangor Daily
News story as saying that she had planned to protest the event, but
decided not to after receiving an obscenity-laced e-mail.

   The story said that “the message was not a threat against her
life, she said, but it was serious enough to have local Million Moms
change their plans about protesting in Dover-Foxcroft. The hate mail’s
sender is connected with the machine-gun event, the e-mail said.”

The same newspaper article para- phrased the machine-gun society’s
president as saying that “whoever sent the message was acting on his
own, not with the authority of the HMHS.”

According to the lawsuit, filed in Kennebec County Superior Court
last week, “Ms. Whittenburg stated that because of the e-mail, she did
not feel safe protesting in Dover-Foxcroft,” that the statements she
made “were made either negligently or with the knowledge of their falsity or
in reckless disregard of the truth,” and that the statements were
“allegations of serious criminal conduct or were allegations that would
adversely affect plaintiff’s fitness for the proper conduct of a business,
trade or
profession. Plaintiff has suffered special harm as a result of Ms.
Whittenburg’s statements.”

McKee said he wants to see the e-mail, which he said was not sent
by anyone associated with his client.

“We didn’t do this,” he said. “We want people to know that.”
He said the lawsuit is not an effort to silence opponents. “This
suit shouldn’t cause a chilling effect, because if people are going to speak
the truth, they aren’t going to be sued,” he said.

The Million Mom March has faced other challenges in other states.

The Second Amendment Foundation, a Bellevue, Wash.-based
organization focused on the right to privately own and possess firearms,
asked the attorney general of California to investigate why the Million
Mom March received free office space at San Francisco General Hospital
through the Trauma Found- ation.

Nancy Hwa, a spokeswoman for the Brady Campaign and the Brady
Center to Prevent Gun Violence, said she was not aware of the Maine
lawsuit, but that “it wouldn’t be the first time that somebody from our
side has been threatened. We get threatening mail all the time.”

BATF Claims Restored Rights Aren't Restored Unless They Say So 

Date: 9/6/2001 3:00:00 AM Written By: Angel Shamaya 

BATF Claims Restored Rights Aren't Restored Unless They Say So 

And urges the court to continue prosecuting Bob Stewart 

from Angel Shamaya KeepAndBearArms.com 

September 6, 2001 


The day before the federal government's trial against Bob Stewart was to 
begin, a judge in Arizona restored Mr. Stewart's rights and signed a "nunc 
pro tunc" order backdating his firearms rights restoration to August of 1998. 
 Mr. Stewart was originally assaulted by the BATF over a matter they 
conveniently dropped -- a gun kit they claimed was "readily converted" even 
though they have no definition of the term in their unconstitutional list of 
regulations -- but because they allegedly found firearms in his home and 
because he had a prior felony conviction over allegedly having been "caught" 
keeping and bearing arms, they charged him with being a felon in possession 
of firearms. 

The BATF wants to lock Mr. Stewart away in prison for years, partly for 
allegedly being a felon in possession of firearms. And because the feds 
invaded his home, assaulted him and his family and stole their possessions 
nearly two years later than the date to which his firearms restoration was 
ORDERED retroactive, the retroaction of the judge's ORDER, if upheld, would 
bear heavily in Mr. Stewart's favor. 

But according to the lawyer working for the feds, a Mr. Joseph C. Welty, the 
restoration of rights by an Arizona judge has no impact on this case, and the 
prosecution can continue, because: 

"...the restoration of civil rights and right to possess firearms by the 
state of Arizona, has no impact on the federal government's ability to 
investigate or prosecute the defendant under Title 18 U.S.C. 922(g). As the 
defendant was convicted in the United States District Court for the District 
of Utah, that federal court must restore the defendant's civil rights and the 
right to possess firearms, in order for the defendant not to run afoul of 
Section 922(g). Because that has not taken place, this prosecution may 
proceed."  (Source: Page 1 of BATF's 5-page motion, available below.) 

On Page 4 of his response to Stewart's Motion to Dismiss, Mr. Welty cites the 
actual text of United States Code Title 18, Part I, Chapter 44, Section 
921(a)(20), as follows: 

"What constitutes a conviction of such a crime shall be determined in 
accordance with the law of the jurisdiction in which the proceedings were 
held. Any conviction which has been expunged, or set aside or for which a 
person has been pardoned or has had civil rights restored shall not be 
considered a conviction for purposes of this chapter, unless such pardon, 
expungement, or restoration of civil rights expressly provides that the 
person may not ship, transport, possess, or receive firearms." 

And then tells us, also on Page 4: 

"...the section has also been held to mean that any expungement, pardon, or 
rights restoration must come from the 'jurisdiction in which the proceedings 
were held' in order to nullify a conviction for purposes of Section 922(g)." 

Citing Beecham v. United States (1994), Welty says the court held that: 

"...the restoration of civil rights by a state could not remove the firearms 
disability imposed as a result of a federal conviction."  [emphasis mine] 

However, Beecham's conclusion, issued from Justice O'Connor, says exactly 
this: 

"Petitioners can take advantage of §921(a)(20) only if their civil rights 
have been restored under federal law, the law of the jurisdiction where the 
earlier proceedings were held." 

That isn't quite the same as Mr. Welty's interpretation, now is it? Or is it? 
(Legalese mumbo jumbo over a wholly unconstitutional act by armed government 
thugs is ridiculous.) 

Also noteworthy is the fact that there is not a means of restoring firearms 
rights through the federal government. The BATF admits this on their own 
website, where they label rights as "privileges" and say: 

"Q. How can a person convicted of a federal felony have their gun privileges 
restored? 

"A. Under the provisions of the Gun Control Act of 1968 (GCA), convicted 
felons and certain other persons are prohibited from possessing firearms. 
(See 18 U.S.C. section 922(g).) The GCA provides the Secretary of the 
Treasury with the authority to grant relief from this disability where the 
Secretary determines that the person is not likely to act in a manner 
dangerous to the public safety. (See 18 U.S.C. section 925(c).) The Secretary 
delegated this authority to ATF. 

"Since October 1992, however, ATF's annual appropriation has continuously 
prohibited the expending of any funds to investigate or act upon applications 
for relief from Federal firearms disabilities. This restriction is located in 
Pub. L. No. 106-554, 114 Stat. 2763, which contains ATF appropriations for 
fiscal year 2001. As long as this provision is included in current

diplomatic bromides and launching into an intensive lobbying effort on behalf
of amnesty for the estimated three million Mexican immigrants now living in
the United States illegally. Gallup polling about blanket amnesty for illegal
immigrants more generally finds the public widely unsympathetic to this
proposal, with only 6% supporting it. An additional 20% think that
citizenship should be granted selectively to illegal immigrant workers who
have been here a specified length of time and paid taxes, but two-thirds of

Condit Wanted Dangerous Sex, Says Flight Attendant

The ex-girlfriend of embattled Congressman Gary Condit said Wednesday that
a month before Chandra Levy disappeared, he repeatedly asked her to engage
in a "sexual scenario" that could have been physically dangerous.

Flight attendant Anne Marie Smith declined go into detail, but told the
Modesto Bee that Condit's suggestion was so wild she thought he was joking.
When she realized he was serious, she nixed the risky sex plan out of
concern for her physical safety.

"I thought to myself, 'Oh, my God, I could have been hurt,'" she told the
paper.

When Smith heard about Levy's disappearance she worried again. "I can't
tell you why, but I felt very frightened. ... I still feel that way. People
tell me I don't need to be afraid, but I am."

Last month Smith's lawyer Jim Robinson told Fox News that the FBI and D.C.
police had asked him not to publicly reveal certain details of his client's
account. But he confirmed that the secret testimony had to do with
information of a "sexual nature" that he said would "shock and outrage"
Americans when it became public.

Who's the Rogue State Now?

http://www.fpif.org/commentary/0108usunilat.html

By Phyllis Bennis

  Hardly a week goes by that the United States declines to sign a world
treaty on security or the global environment-or threatens to withdraw from
one it has already signed.

Even worse is its record on international human rights. Despite lots of
high-sounding rhetoric about a "human rights-based foreign policy," the U.S.
is no paragon when it comes to action. The U.S. routinely refuses to sign or
ratify numerous human rights-related treaties and conventions, and at other
times, actually violates internationally agreed upon human rights standards.

Consider the recent record:

Alone among its European and other Western allies, the U.S. continues to
impose the death penalty. It even allows imposition of a death sentence
against minors and those found to be mentally incompetent, in direct
contravention of international human rights law.
The U.S. is responsible, by refusing to allow the UN to end the devastating
economic sanctions, for killing hundreds of thousands of Iraqi children and
violating virtually all of the economic and social rights of Iraq's civilian
population.
The U.S. has refused to ratify the Convention on the Rights of the Child, a
distinction it shares only with Somalia. It opposed a key provision
prohibiting child soldiers under the age of 18, because the Pentagon found
it convenient to continue recruiting 17-year-olds for the U.S. military.
The U.S. spent years demanding international support for an International
Criminal Court. But throughout the Rome negotiations aimed at creating the
Court, U.S. diplomats worked to weaken the independence of the Court, and to
insure that no future U.S. war criminal would ever be brought before the
Court. Ultimately, while 120 countries cheered the birth of the Court that
summer, the U.S. led the seven-nation rejection front (including China,
Israel, Iraq, Libya) that refused to support the Court.
Washington stands alone in protecting Israel's illegal military occupation
of Palestinian lands, and its continuing violations of human rights and
international law, including illegal settlements, and tank and helicopter
gunship attacks on refugee camps and other civilian targets.
The U.S. reluctantly signed but has refused to ratify the Convention on
Economic and Social Rights. In conference after conference the U.S. has
opposed declaring housing and food to be internationally recognized human
rights in separate treaties, despite the explicit inclusion of such rights
in the convention's own language guaranteeing an adequate standard of
living.
The U.S. has refused to ratify the Convention on the Rights of Women, and
has strongly opposed UN efforts to make women's right to inherit property an
internationally recognized human right.
As a result, there is a growing global dismay at what is widely perceived to
be an escalating "go it alone" tendency in U.S. foreign policy, an approach
that dismisses the significance of multilateralism, international law, and
the United Nations.

For instance, just days before the UN votes, the Bush administration
announced its intention to abandon the requirements of the Kyoto
environmental treaty on climate change, and to unilaterally renounce the
almost 30-year-old Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) treaty that has been a
linchpin of international strategic arms control since 1972. Coming after so
many years of big U.S. talk but little U.S. accountability to multilateral
decisionmaking, UN resolutions, and international treaties, its not
surprising that European allies were furious. Many are now calling the U.S.
a "rogue state."

One example of "roguish" behavior toward the UN may have pushed several
countries over the edge, from irritation to fury. That is the seemingly
endless problem of unpaid U.S. dues. Washington's arrears to the UN,
including both peacekeeping and regular assessments, total over $1.3
billion. In a much praised "negotiated" settlement last year, the U.S.
agreed to finally pay a portion of those overdue assessments (a little more
than $530 million), if the UN accepted a long list of unilaterally imposed
restrictions crafted largely by UN-bashing Senator Jesse Helms. And now,
months later, despite the high-profile agreement, even that partial payment
has never been sent. The U.S. remains the biggest deadbeat country in the
UN.

And finally, it is not only U.S. failures and hypocrisy and double standards
on human rights, not only U.S. rejection of multilateralism in favor of raw
power that antagonizes U.S. friends, allies, and adversaries alike. It is
the ugly arrogance with which Washington wields that power that leads to
such animosity. One hopes that some here in Washington will take seriously
the sobering lesson of what begins to happen to superpowers, even to
empires, that overreach their legitimacy once too often.

14 SIGNPOSTS TO SLAVERY

http://www.barefootsworld.net/14signs.html

In 1972 a wonderful little book was published. It arrived with little
fanfare yet somehow it has managed to survive for 25 years. Most people
have never read it. These are the same people who today are asking
questions about what went wrong with America. These are the same people who
today find that their plans for the future, no matter how hard they have
worked to make those plans a reality, have vanished into thin air. These
are the same people who are working 3 jobs to keep what one job secured for
them 20 years ago...These people are you and I, the working middle
class, the "We the People."

The book is titled "None Dare Call It Conspiracy," and was authored by Gary
Allen with Larry Abraham. It was considered very controversial 23 years
ago. In retrospect it appears to have been a blueprint for the future of
America. That America is perhaps where we are all living today.

If you doubt the possibility of a conspiracy to bring America to it's knees
and perhaps install a totalitarian dictatorship through the conversion of
our republic into a democracy you need only look to the changes in our
laws. Gary Allen provided his readers with fourteen signposts on the road
to totalitarianism. They were compiled by Dr. Warren Carroll, and Mike
Djordjevich, a refugee from Yugoslavian communism. The list is in no
particular order. However, nothing on the list existed in American law at
the time the list was compiled.

Read it now, experience it for yourself. Any one of the listed items would
be a clear warning that the totalitarian state is very near, and a
significant number of perhaps five or more could possibly suggest that the
freedom we have once enjoyed and the preservation of our Great Republic has
been lost.

14 SIGNPOSTS TO SLAVERY

1. Restrictions on taking money out of the country and on the establishment
or retention of a foreign bank account by an American citizen.

2. Abolition of private ownership of hand guns.

3. Detention of individuals without judicial process.

4. Requirements that private financial transactions be keyed to social
security numbers or other government identification so that government
records of these transactions can be fed into a computer.

5. Use of compulsory education laws to forbid attendance at presently
existing private schools.

6. Compulsory non-military service.

7. Compulsory psychological treatment for non-government workers or public
school children.

8. An official declaration that anti-communist (Patriot) organizations are
subversive and subsequent legal action taken to suppress them.

9. Laws limiting the number of people allowed to meet in a private home.

10. Any significant change in passport regulations to make passports more
difficult to obtain.

11. Wage and price controls, especially in a non-wartime situation.

12. Any kind of compulsory registration with the government of where
individuals work.

13. Any attempt to restrict freedom of movement within the United States.

14. Any attempt to make a new major law by executive decree (that is,
actually put into effect, not merely authorized as by existing executive
orders.)

President Nixon invoked numbers 1, 11 and 14. As of January 1,1972, banks
must report to the government any deposit or withdrawal over $5,000. That
number has since been reduced to $3,000. Any purchase over $10,000 made in
cash must also be reported to the federal government. Clinton has done the
same via Executive Orders.

Courts have in some instances ordered individuals without bank accounts to
open one under threat of incarceration through charges of Civil contempt.

This government is presently attempting to end private handgun ownership in
America through federal legislation, signpost #2.

Recent destruction of Habeas Corpus has made signpost #3 a reality. Federal
banking laws have made signpost #4 the law of the land.

President Clinton's "America in Service" legislation has made signpost #6
an expected part of American behavior. Federal civil rights legislation in
regard to helping young children deal with alternative life styles of
adults ( Suzie's two mommies/daddies) has made signpost #7 a part of the
new american landscape.

Increased fees and much extended waiting times are now required to obtain a
passport, signpost #10.

The EPA's trip reduction legislation, which limits an individuals right to
travel freely on the highway is a perfect example of signpost #13. Road
blocks or check points set up by either local or state police under the
guise of searching for drugs or drunk drivers, while appearing to be in the
service of society are in truth an invasion of our freedom to travel.

Well, we have seen these already -- 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 10 - 11 - 12 - 13 - 14
Signpost #8 is up for grabs, and 5, 6, 7 and 9 may take a li

Israeli extremists take revenge on Palestinians
By Jack Kelley, USA TODAY 

HEBRON, West Bank — After a quick prayer, Avi Shapiro and 12 other Jewish 
settlers put on their religious skullcaps, grabbed their semi-automatic 
rifles and headed toward Highway 60. There, they pushed boulders, stretched 
barbed wire and set tires afire to form a barricade that, they said, would 
stop even the biggest of Palestinian taxis. Then they waited for a vehicle to 
arrive. As they crouched in a ditch beside the road, Shapiro, the leader of 
the group, gave the settlers orders: Surround any taxi, "open fire" and kill 
as many of the "blood-sucking Arab" passengers as possible. "We are doing 
what (Israeli Prime Minister Ariel) Sharon promised but has failed to do: 
drive these sons of Arab whores from the land of Israel," said Shapiro, 42, 
who moved here with his wife and four children three years ago from Brooklyn. 
"If he won't get rid of the Muslim filth, then we will."

Claiming they have been abandoned by Israel's government and determined to 
rid the West Bank of Arabs, vigilante Jewish settlers are shooting and 
beating Palestinians, stealing and destroying their property and poisoning 
and diverting their water supplies, Israeli and Palestinian officials say.

While Jewish extremists have lashed out before, most notoriously in 1994 when 
a U.S. settler, Baruch Goldstein, gunned down 29 Arabs in a nearby mosque, 
never before have they struck with such frequency, Israeli officials say. And 
nowhere has the violence been as intense as in this disputed city, believed 
to be the burial place of the biblical prophet Abraham.

Nearly 450 right-wing Jews, all of whom are armed and claim a biblical right 
to the land, live here among 120,000 Palestinians. Many, like Shapiro and his 
colleagues, are ready to strike at any time.

Israeli and U.S. officials have warned Sharon that if the violence against 
Palestinian civilians increases, it could enflame already high emotions and 
lead the entire region into war.

"It only takes a spark to light a very big fire here," says Yossi Sarid, a 
left-wing Israeli opposition leader. "This is a city that is cursed."'

A time bomb'

Since the start of the latest surge of violence in Israel a year ago this 
month, at least 119 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli civilians in the 
West Bank and Gaza, according to B'Tselem, an Israeli human rights group that 
has been sympathetic to the Palestinians' plight. Hundreds of others have 
been hospitalized, it says.

During the same time, at least 30 settlers have been killed by Palestinian 
gunmen.

In July, Jewish vigilantes killed three Palestinians, including a 3-month-old 
boy, in Nablus. The State Department condemned the attack as a "barbaric act" 
of "unconscionable vigilantism." No one has been charged in the attack.

"These people are a time bomb," says Hanna Nasser, Palestinian mayor of the 
West Bank city of Bethlehem. "No one is safe."

The attacks, occurring almost daily, have been condemned by nearly all 
Israelis. Politicians, who fear the extremists will spoil Israel's attempt to 
portray itself as the victim rather than the aggressor in this conflict, have 
been the most vocal. "These Jewish terrorists are criminals," Israeli Foreign 
Minister Shimon Peres says. "They've gone too far."

Yet, the attacks are expected to increase, Israeli officials say. A group of 
Jewish vigilantes who possess bomb-making materials has formed in Hebron, 
they say.

The group, which claimed responsibility for the three recent Palestinian 
deaths, has been distributing fliers in the West Bank that read: "Revenge is 
holy. It should be up to the government to do it, but unfortunately, the 
government does not care about the murder of Jews. There are people whose 
patience has run out."

Security officials also fear the extremists are widening their targets to 
include Israeli police and soldiers sent to protect the settlers, as well as 
Western diplomats and European peace monitors. All have recently been 
attacked. The settlers accuse them of not doing enough to protect them or of 
favoring the Palestinians.

Last week, 85 European Community monitors who had patrolled Hebron since 1994 
withdrew after complaining of weeks of verbal and physical abuse by the 
settlers. "Every day, we were kicked, dragged and beaten by the settlers," 
says Karl-Henrik Sjursen of Norway, chief of the observer mission. "They made 
life impossible for us."

Shots at a taxi

On a recent Sunday, Shapiro and the 12 other extremists spotted their first 
target: a white Palestinian taxi that had turned the corner and begun to 
rumble toward them. From a hill 50 yards away, the men could be seen removing 
the safety locks from the weapons. Their wives were grabbing extra ammunition 
clips. Their children, all of them under age 12, were picking up rocks.

Teachers, guns and zero-tolerance

Michelle Malkin
CREATORS SYNDICATE

Published 9/6/01



 When the new school year begins, Deena Esteban will not be among the legions of 
educators welcoming students back to
class.
 That's because Mrs. Esteban, a 43-year-old art teacher in Prince William County, 
Va., lost the job she loved after being
convicted of a felony last fall. Her crime? Bringing a gun to school. Mrs. Esteban's 
story is a textbook case of zero-tolerance
tyranny. Teachers are the forgotten casualties of the education establishment's 
absolutist war on guns.
 Mrs. Esteban had never been in trouble with the law. The married mother of two 
owned a .38-caliber revolver for
self-defense and like millions of Americans across the country held a valid, 
concealed-weapons permit. She carried the gun
when she went out alone, mostly on errands. One fateful night last spring, she put the 
gun in her handbag before going out to
entertain her visiting parents. The next morning, she brought the bag to school not 
realizing the firearm was still in it, she says.
 When she left the bag unattended for a short period in her classroom, a colleague 
opened it and found the gun. No one was
hurt. It was an unfortunate accident. Mrs. Esteban says she would never do anything 
deliberately to put children in harm's way.
She was willing to accept a reasonable punishment for her mistake.
 Virginia makes it a misdemeanor to leave a loaded, unsecured firearm in a manner 
that endangers children. Mrs. Esteban
offered to plead guilty to that offense. But it wasn't enough for local prosecutors 
bent on "sending a message." Despite
acknowledging that Mrs. Esteban showed no criminal intent, government lawyers threw 
the book at her. They charged Mrs.
Esteban with a felony count of possessing a gun on school grounds. A jury convicted 
her last October, imposing a $2,500 fine
and 12-month jail sentence. A judge suspended the prison term and slightly reduced the 
fine in January, but the incident
continues to wreak havoc on the Esteban family.
 Mrs. Esteban's former colleagues ostracized her, and she has been unemployed 
since her arrest and conviction, which is
headed to an appeals court next month. "No one wants to hire you when you have to 
check the box on the form that says,
'Yes, I have been convicted of a felony,' " Mrs. Esteban notes sadly. "People think 
I'm some kind of dirtbag."
 This overzealous gun-control policy has also robbed Mrs. Esteban of her privacy 
and personal dignity. She cannot travel out
of state without permission. Her DNA is registered in a state database. And the police 
released her home address, phone
number and mug shot to the media.
 Mrs. Esteban's husband, Philip, now works two jobs to support the family and help 
cover their legal bills. He believes this
was "clearly a political prosecution. . . . It's bizarre beyond comprehension that you 
can be convicted of merely possessing
something that's constitutionally protected."
 Mrs. Esteban's prosecution is not unique. More than 30 states criminalize 
possession of firearms on school grounds. Just last
week, Renee Rudenick, a special education instructor in Kent, Wash., was put on trial 
for accidentally taking to school a gun
that she had obtained after suffering domestic abuse. Like Mrs. Esteban, Mrs. Rudenick 
a 30-year veteran teacher was a
licensed, legal concealed-weapons permit holder. Fortunately, a jury refused to 
convict her. But she, too, lost her job.
 Now, compare the teachers' plights with that of Albert McCarthy, a Chester 
County, Pa., police chief who accidentally left
his Glock semi-automatic on an elementary school bathroom windowsill this spring 
during a break from a drug education
lecture. His punishment? A four-day suspension without pay.
 Law-enforcement officials are exempt from prosecution for making mistakes, but 
teachers licensed to carry concealed
weapons are not. Why? To protect the children, society has deemed that teachers must 
not be allowed to protect themselves in
their workplace. The classroom has become a Second Amendment-free zone. So much for 
"sensible" gun control.

[CTRL] DIA Hopes to Grow Anthrax Variant to Test Vaccine

Subject:  DIA Hopes to Grow Anthrax Variant to Test Vaccine

By Sgt. 1st Class Kathleen T. Rhem, USA
American Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6, 2001 -- The Defense Intelligence
Agency hopes to grow a Russian-engineered variant of
anthrax to test the effectiveness of the vaccine given to
U.S. troops.

"We have a vaccine that works against ... all of the known
anthrax strains. What we want to do is make sure we are
prepared for any surprises," Pentagon spokeswoman Victoria
Clarke said Sept. 4.

A 1997 medical journal reported that Russia might have
developed a modified anthrax strain. Concerned about its
possible use as a biological weapon, DIA officials
requested a sample from Russia, but to date have received
none, Clarke said in a Pentagon media briefing.

"Earlier this year, the DIA started to look into what it
would take to get the legal approvals, to get the
interagency coordination, to do the congressional
briefings, to look into developing that strain so they
could test vaccines and they could see what we have to do
to make sure we're protected against it," Clarke said.

She stressed no scientific work has been done so far in
developing this strain and that the proposed work,
codenamed Project Jefferson, would be in compliance with
the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention.

Clarke said the convention allows work that is purely
defensive in nature. "It allows you to have small
quantities of a known agent, limited quantities of an agent
if you want to study it for the purpose of protecting
people against that threat," she added.

Once the legal work is done, DIA intends to go forward with
developing the anthrax strain, Clarke said.

"We take the threat of the spread of biological and
chemical warfare very, very seriously. We have an
obligation -- and it's an important obligation -- to make
sure we protect, first and foremost, the men and women in
uniform against those threats," she said. "So with all the
appropriate legal reviews, with all the appropriate
interagency coordination and congressional briefing, we
plan to proceed."

[William Shannon]

September 7, 2001
Posted Sept 4.01


End Times: More Psychological Than Logical 
[Original headline: It’s long awaited – but it never arrives]

Within the next century, a huge 300-foot-high tsunami triggered by the 
collapse of the western side of La Palma island in the Canaries into the 
Atlantic Ocean is likely to drown everybody on the east coast of the United 
States and devastate Britain — but by then it won’t really matter. 

The environment will already be wrecked, democracy will have fallen to 
globalised corporate power, biotechnology will have turned our children into 
Frankensteins who eat Frankenstein foods, and all our familiar human 
institutions and values will have been perverted or destroyed by the twin 
solvents of rampant capitalism and post-modern relativism. 

If you think that the world is falling apart, that you are living closer to 
the bitter end of the story than the bright beginnings — then you are in good 
company. Most people have always thought that. But they were usually wrong, 
and you may be too. 

Take the High Renaissance, generally seen now as the time and place (Italy 
1450-1550) when the foundations were laid for all that is good about the 
modern world: Individual freedom, scientific inquiry, and an extraordinary 
flowering of art and literature. What was the average Italian’s view of the 
world in the midst of so much promise? 

That the world was falling apart, of course. Constantinople had just fallen 
to the Turks and Italians were terrified that Islam was going to overrun all 
of Europe. Italy was ravaged by constant wars between petty city-states, and 
the mercenaries who fought them had a nasty habit of robbing, raping and 
murdering the citizens of both sides. 

Go out and you risk being mugged. Stay in and you may be poisoned by your 
servants or your spouse. The next bout of the Plague will be along any year 
now. As for all these disgusting free-thinkers and decadent artists, that’s 
why we need the Holy Inquisition — but we are still probably nearing the End 
of Days. 

Viewed from the present, the future always seems dark to most people. Why? 
The reason, suggests Oliver Bennett in his new book Cultural Pessimism, is 
not so much logical as psychological. 

Bennett does not deny that terrible things will happen in the future. What he 
questions is the great weight that we give to negative news about both the 
present and the future, despite the fact that never before has such a high 
proportion of the human race lived in freedom, security and dignity. 

The dystopias are often mutually exclusive — you cannot have the universal 
triumph of ruthless capitalism and total environmental collapse (though you 
could perhaps have them one after the other). So one of Bennett’s real 
achievements is to provide a clear view of these rival versions of pessimism 
about the future. 

Then there are all the theories of environmental collapse. They may be proved 
right, but what is striking is how popular these views are with people who do 
not actually understand their arguments about bio-diversity or climate change 
or population growth. 

The same goes for the growing loss of faith in the ability of science to 
create a better world. This world is clearly vastly better in material terms 
than the world of 1500 for most of the people in it, and it is mostly the 
application of scientific principles that made the difference, but science is 
now viewed by a large part of the public as more likely to bring doom than 
development. 

And so on. There are those who predict the imminent collapse of the global 
economy (both old Marxists, and radical capitalists such as George Soros), 
and those who believe that business is taking over the world, leaving only a 
facade of democracy and free media, and those who fear that modernisation 
equals rampant individualism and social disintegration. 

There are elements of truth in all these ideas, and maybe one of them will 
really come true. But none of them has the tangible reality of the global 
nuclear war we lived on the brink of for much of the 20th century. Yet these 
fuzzier disasters command a much wider audience of enthusiasts. 

What makes the current disaster scenarios so popular? Bad news is more 
exciting, and it feeds people’s self-im-portance to believe that something 
extra-special is going to happen in their own era. 

But Oliver Bennett perceptively suggests it’s because many people are mildly 
dep-ressed. Turning their anxieties outwards lets them cheer up. The happy 
environmentalist ought to be a contradiction in terms, but many activists are 
amazingly optimistic about their private lives. 

They are worthy of respect, and they may be right. But it is remarkable how 
pessimistic we all manage to be about a world where the risk of large-scale 
war is lower than at any time in history, where freedom and democracy are 
spreading into the most unlikely places

[CTRL] Skolnick- Wal-Mart & The Red Chinese...(Part 3)

[William Shannon]

http://www.skolnicksreport.com/rcsp3.html



"WAL-MART and the RED CHINESE SECRET POLICE, Part Three"
by Sherman H. Skolnick
09/6/01

Wal-Mart and the Reputed Crooked Judges in Chicago. As owners and operators
of the State of Arkansas, the Rockefeller Family have had a two-pronged plan.
As agent for the Rockefellers/Red Chinese, Bill Clinton arranged for the
Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport to be built. Some critics thought it was
an unnecessary facility. Perhaps they did not take into consideration its
location close to three Rockefeller-assisted so-called new "fortunes",
started and headquartered nearby and now spread out all over the nation if
not the world Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., and their subsidiaries; Tyson Foods,
Inc., also known as Tyson Chickens; and their transportation wing, J.B Hunt
Transport Services, Inc.

The oil-soaked, spy-riddled monopoly press seldom mentions the plans of the
Rockefellers, always showing them, if at all, smiling, and only rarely
mentions them and Arkansas. Like the British in the 19th Century, seeking to
subjugate China with opium, the Rockefellers, as the first part of the plan,
are seeking to control the common people of the U.S. by flooding the nation
with "China White", high purity dope from Southwest China. Junkies prefer
"China White" because it can be smoked in a pipe and does not require a
needle in the arm. In the process, the Rockefellers are assisting Red China
in undermining the skilled trades and useful employment in the U.S. by
deluging the nation with cheap goods from China and countries dominated by
them such as Sri Lanka. Spear-heading that effort has been Wal-Mart capable
of underselling most everybody with products made by Chinese and other
slave-laborers at camps and factories under the authority of the Secret
Police.

And the Red Chinese Gestapo pick healthy dissidents to be arbitrarily
imprisoned, awaiting orders for human body parts from major U.S. transplant
centers, dominated by the Rockefellers. Upon receiving such an order from a
well-off patient, a prisoner is condemned to death, shot in the back of the
head, and his liver, kidneys, and such removed. They are most often sent to
the major U.S. transplant center at Rockefeller's University of Chicago
Hospitals. The proceeds from the major "China White" dope trafficking,
weapons smuggling, and harvesting of human body parts, and other such, are
laundered through the Chicago markets disguised as dealings in currency and
soybeans.

[Visit our extensive website series, "THE RED CHINESE SECRET POLICE IN THE
U.S."]

The second section of the Rockefeller scheme is to re-locate all or a
substantial portion of Wal-Mart's headquarters to Chicago. Tyson has already
set up in Chicago a major food processing plant that reportedly employs a
large number of non-citizen Mexicans more or less induced to infiltrate the
U.S. Such workers are subject to being cowed by the Immigration and
Naturalization Service, INS. And such labor is preferred to local labor which
likes to be unionized and receive numerous fringe benefits. After all,
Chicago has traditionally been a trade union town.

To make this all work, Wal-Mart needs an arbitrary and corrupt federal
judiciary, cowardly lawyers, and a venal see-nothing press who are more like
stenographers of official government lies rather than like inquiring
reporters. Big corporations prefer to litigate in Chicago's Federal courts.
Why? As one blunt observer aptly stated, "Chicago has the cheapest judicial
whores in the nation".

Notice this example from one of our website stories. A crusading attorney
from Fayetteville, Arkansas, Dan C. Ivy, has been the attorney of choice in
Chicago for a storyboard designer sueing Coca-Cola and Simon Marketing for
copyright damages. Ivy is one of the few attorneys I have observed in 40
years as a court-reformer, that dared to repeatedly confront, to her face, a
federal district judge in Chicago who committed a fraud upon her own Court.
How? Through judicial perjuries. That is, in plain language, a judge trying
to cover up an arbitrary and corrupt ruling by mouthing off straight-out lies
from the bench. As a cover-up, Chicago District Judge Blanche M.Manning
[(312)435-7608] did what is forbidden in Anglo-Saxon Law. That is, for a
person to sit as a judge in their own case. She ruled that she had not done
the judicial lies with which she was charged in some six petitions by Ivy,
invoking "fraud upon the court" against her.

A reputed major unpunished gangster and power broker reportedly paid a
million dollars for her to have a chair in the U.S. District Court in
Chicago. Buying and selling judgeships is a seldom discussed subject. [Visit

Hey Declan

(We met originally at the Financial Cryptography 2000 conference)

I just recently posted the results of a survey of MP (Members of
Parliament, kinda like the Canadian version of Congressmen)...I basically
did a little experiment to see how responsive they and their offices were
to emails from their constituents.  Not very as it turns out.

The interesting part is where National Security branch RCMP officers turn
up to ask me what the hell I'm doing sending emails to all the MPs.

Just in case anyone is interested, we have had serious issues with the

blocked all of Gator's servers & websites! We found that in addition to
having a vague declaration in the EULA of what the Gator software actually
does, ( most of our users were quite surprised when they were told ) we
found when monitoring our network traffic that the gator software
continually sends data from the users PC to their servers ( and to 3rd
party servers not owned by Gator.com )even when they weren't browsing the
web. When we contacted Gator about this we asked to speak to an engineer
but instead were contacted by someone in their PR dept. who simply quoted
the information contained in the EULA. Not satisfied with that, we
continued testing & discovered through packet capture & decoding that the
software searches & sends not only Gator cookies, but other companies
cookies to their servers as well. We then contacted about this, and have
not received a response to date !

We realize there are other companies doing this, but none have been as
vocal in denying their software's underhanded activity as Gator.com has
been. We will continue to block Gator.com & its associated servers, and

[CTRL] Shame! Jessie Shame! Rev Jackson lobbies for perpetraters of racism (fwd)

[Yardbird]

-Caveat Lector-

Asalamu'alaikum,

Shame!  Jessie Shame!

Rev Jackson lobbies for perpetraters of racism

By: Ali Baghdadi

Rev. Jessie Jackson must be regretting the day he agreed to set foot in
Durban, South Africa to lobby for the U.S. and Israeli position at the
U.N. Third World Conference on Racism.  Besides the official governmental
delegates, the conference was attended by over 10,000 participants
representing 3,900 international non-governmental groups (NGOs) and was
also hosted by the United Nation.  His attendance was one of the gravest
mistakes in his political career. He has lost what little remained of his
credibility in front of the whole world.  Now, Rev. Jackson stands naked
in the sunshine.
 He has uncovered what he had worked hard for many years to cover.  Of
course, no one should be blamed but Rev. Jackson himself.

Rev. Jackson had the opportunity to go to Durban as a champion of the
cause of the oppressed, dispossesed and down treaden.  His position as a
descendent of slaves in the belly of the beast, the only super power which
is behind the new world disorder, in addition to the gifts and skills
bestowed on him, make him an effective spokesman.  He could have been a
shining star among the

masses converging from every corner on the globe, demanding, among other

things, an end to descrimination, racism, bigotry and exploitation.  On
the contrary, Rev. Jackson went on a mission designed to appease the
Zionists who control the American media, and to serve the imperialistic
interests of the United States government which continues its refusal to
face up to its responsibility for slavery of Blacks and virtual
extermination of American natives.  His sponsers had the power, if they
chose, to get him in deep trouble, much worse and more damaging than the
recent revelation of his extra-marital activities.  He is not willing to
stand and fight against evil and for the good of humanity!

Rev. Jackson, a preacher who rose to the top as a national and
international figure only after gaining the overwhelming support of the
disenfranchised, marginalized and forgotten minorities, almost won the
presidential nomination of the Democratic Party in 1984.  Unfortunately,
however, he has later abandoned the principles he called for after
realizing that the cause, which he attempted to champion, is long and
difficult.  The civil rights leader has chosen an easier and more
comfortable life style.  Today, Rev. Jackson stands with the most hated
and despised two governments on earth, his 'friends' and benefactors,
Israel and the United States.

In his desperate attempt to regain his stature as an international leader
and to satisfy his ego, and to give the impression that the mission he had
been sent to Durban for was accomplished, Rev. Jackson must have felt an
urgent need to twist the facts almost 180 degrees.  The piece of paper
that he held up to the press after meeting with Arafat did not carry the
ailing PLO leader's signature as he originally claimed.  The Palestinian
statement that Rev. Jackson extracted from the Palestinian Authority did
not contain any new concessions as he bragged in front of the TV cameras.
It merely reflected the Palestinian Authority's formal position, which, to
the great disappointment of the overwhelming majority of developing
nations, particularly the Palestinians, has been already diluted to gain
Washington's acceptance.  Out of respect to the Black community, who as a
victim of racism, is greatly sympathetic to the Palestinian struggle, the
Palestinian delegate chose not to embarrass Rev. Jackson.  Realizing the
true role he came to play and his need for self-grandeur and credit, Rev.
Jackson was

politely described as "over zealous".

Despite the pressure, threats and blackmail exercised by the United States
and Israel, the United Nations NGO conference made a historical and
courageous declaration by calling things by their right and proper names.
Israel was found to be guilty, "a racist apartheid state", which is
colonial and commits racist crimes.  Human Rights Watch and Jewish NGOs
were the only organizations that walked out in protest. However, in spite
of the rampage of terror, murder and destruction being carried out daily
against the mostly unarmed and captive Palestinians by the Israeli army,
Moshe Katsav, the President of the Jewish settler state, the only country
in the world that targets civilians with F-15 and F-16 bombers, was quoted
saying "Israel follows higher moral standards than the rest of the world".
Shimon Peres, who, as Israel's Prime Minister, a few years back, ordered
the Qana massacre in Lebanon in which over 100 elderly men, women and
children who took refuge in a U.N. compound were murdered, said, "The
Durban conference is a farce." The Rev. Jesse Jackson, attending as a
member of the Black Leadership Forum, described the tone of the conference
"inflammatory" that we must fight and change.


The NGO declaration also accused Israel of committing 

[CTRL] Bush To Invoke Executive Privilege- What's He Hiding??

[William Shannon]

http://www.msnbc.com/news/624770.asp?0si=-&cp1=1#BODY



Bush to invoke executive privilege  

Battle with House Republican is over sharing documents  


MSNBC STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
    
WASHINGTON, Sept. 6 —  Preparing to invoke executive privilege for the first 
time, President Bush faces a showdown with a House committee over whether 
lawmakers may see certain Justice Department documents. For its part, the 
committee, chaired by a fellow Republican, planned to serve Attorney General 
John Ashcroft with a subpoena Thursday, demanding the documents and expanding 
its request to cover even more cases.   

BUSH HAS ACCEPTED the advice of White House counsel Alberto Gonzales, senior 
administration sources told the Washington Post and The Associated Press, and 
is ready to make an executive privilege claim to keep the House Government 
Reform Committee from seeing prosecutors’ memos on three Clinton-era 
investigations involving Democratic fund-raising, a former Clinton White 
House official and a former federal drug enforcement agent.
       
The battle is being waged by Rep. Dan Burton, R-Ind., who argues that the 
Bush administration’s stance is a threat to Congress’ oversight 
responsibility.
      
 “If this unprecedented policy is permitted to stand, Congress will not be 
able to exercise meaningful oversight of the executive branch,” Burton said. 
A Burton aide told NBC News that the lawmaker was upset with the Bush 
administration’s stand and was “taking off the gloves.”
       
A White House source told the Post that Burton’s request makes cooperation 
impossible. “Principle is very important to this administration,” the 
official said. “When there would be a clear violation of principle, we will 
proceed as we see fit.”
       
HEARING NEXT WEEK
       
Burton has scheduled a hearing for next Thursday — titled “The Need for 
Congressional Oversight of the Justice Department” — and has asked Ashcroft 
to testify. 

“The Committee will inquire about the Justice Department’s new policy to 
refuse to provide to Congress deliberative documents pertaining to criminal 
investigations,” Burton stated in a letter to Ashcroft.
       
In a separate letter to Ashcroft, Burton accused Ashcroft of contradicting 
his stand as a U.S. senator, when he urged then Attorney General Janet Reno 
to release documents related to the fund raising probe.
       
“I am concerned that you have one standard for a Democrat attorney general 
and another standard for yourself,” Burton wrote.
       
HISTORY AND CLINTON
       
Executive privilege is a doctrine recognized by the courts that ensures 
presidents may get candid advice in private without fear of it becoming 
public.
       
The privilege, however, is best known for the unsuccessful attempts by former 
Presidents Nixon and Clinton to keep evidence secret during impeachment 
investigations.
       
Gonzales has recommended that Bush make the privilege claim if Burton’s 
committee subpoenas the memos or seeks to question Ashcroft about them, 
administration sources said.
       
The Bush administration knows of at least four other instances in which 
executive privilege was cited involving similar documents, the officials said.
       
A senior administration official said that while the memos involve cases 
during Clinton’s presidency, Bush was prepared to invoke the privilege and 
create a clear policy that prosecutors’ discussions should be off-limits from 
congressional scrutiny.
       
White House lawyers and the president concluded that “the fair administration 
of justice requires full and complete deliberations and that most often can 
best be accomplished when prosecutors think through their options in 
private,” the official said, speaking only on condition of anonymity.
       
THE CHENEY FLAP
       
The claim would be the latest of several by the new administration to 
restrain the flow of information to Congress about private deliberations.
       
Vice President Dick Cheney has rebuffed requests by the General Accounting 
Office and Democratic congressmen to divulge information about people he met 
with and how he helped develop Bush’s energy policy. The White House signaled 
anew Wednesday it does not intend to turn over any Cheney documents to the 
GAO’s comptroller general.
      
 “The comptroller general has exceeded his lawful authority and the statute 
under which GAO is operating does not apply in this instance,” White House 
spokeswoman Anne Womack said. The GAO is Congress’ investigative and auditing 
arm.

MIXED RECORD OF SHARING
       
Ashcroft indicated last week that the administration intended to reverse the 
practice of sharing prosecutors’ deliberative documents with congressional 
committees.
       
Burton’s committee has for months been seeking Justice Department memos about 
prosecutors’ decisions in the cases involving Democratic fund-raising, a 
former Clinton White House official and a former federal dru

[CTRL] Echelon Exists Says EU Committee

Echelon spying network exists, EU committee says
09:59
Thursday September 6, 2001, Newsbytes

Echelon exists, the European Union (EU) Parliament was told. Echelon,
allegedly a vast information collection system capable of monitoring all the
electronic communications in the world, has been talked about in security
circles for several years.

But no government agency in the world has ever confirmed or denied its
existence. An EU committee has been investigating the system for almost a
year.

Just because the surveillance network exists, however, doesn't mean that
government agencies can access all the information Echelon collects, Gerhard
Schmid, the German Member of the European Parliament (MEP), told Parliament
members in Strasbourg. In his presentation, Schmid said that Echelon - which
allegedly is a joint venture between the governments of the US, the UK,
Canada, and Australia and New Zealand - sucks up electronic transmissions
"like a vacuum cleaner," using keyword search techniques to sift through
enormous amounts of data.

The report recommends that the EU negotiate a set of data privacy rules with
the US, similar to those that already exist in the EU countries

Employer health-plan premiums rise; fewer jobs offering insurance

By THERESA AGOVINO
Associated Press

NEW YORK (September 6, 2001 09:42 a.m. EDT) - Premiums for
employer-sponsored health insurance plans have climbed 11
percent this year - the biggest jump in nearly a decade -
pushing companies to consider requiring workers to pay more
out of their own pockets while reversing a growing trend
of more companies offering coverage.

>From the spring of 2000 to the spring of 2001, annual premiums
for employer-sponsored plans grew to $2,650 for single coverage
and $7,053 for family coverage, according to a study of 2,734
companies conducted by the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation
and the Health Research & Educational Trust. The previous
year, premiums increased an average of 8.3 percent, while
premiums rose 4.8 percent in 1999.

This year's increase has employers thinking about shifting
more of the cost to employees - a prospect more palatable
since the red-hot job market has cooled, making it more difficult
for workers to jump ship should they be upset by changes
in benefits.

According to the study, being released Thursday, 44 percent
of companies were either "very likely" or "somewhat likely"
to increase employee premium costs in the next year. Workers
pay an average of $30 a month for single coverage and $150
a month for family coverage.

"It is interesting to see how quickly you can see the effect
of rising premiums in a slowing economy," said Larry Levitt,
co-author of the study and vice president of the Kaiser Family
Foundation. "The time of increases in health care costs being
offset by employers has come to a screeching halt."

That's unlikely to change unless the economy drastically
improves because other organizations that track health care
costs are forecasting double digit increases for 2002. For
example, management consulting firm Towers Perrin predicts
health care costs will rise nearly 11 percent next year.

Meanwhile, the rising costs are causing fewer companies to
offer health benefits. From 1998 to 2000, the percentage
of companies offering health benefits grew from 55 percent
to 67 percent, according to the Kaiser study. This year,
the percentage dropped to 65 percent.

Levitt said once companies start offering insurance, they
rarely drop it. Yet, he fears as small businesses offering
health insurance close because the economic slowdown, they
will be replaced by other small companies who simply don't
offer the option.

"There are just no new ideas for controlling costs. I think
we are going to see a lot more bad news," Levitt said.

The trend of shifting the cost of health care to the worker
has already taken root in some companies.

For example, the average deductible for an employee choosing
a doctor outside the network in a Preferred Provider Organization
grew from $361 last year to $407 this year. Co-payments for
prescription drugs increased to $20 this year from $16 last
year.

Still, from 1996 to 2001, the percentage of the premium a
single employee paid dropped to 14 percent in 2000 from 21
percent in 1996. It did increase to 15 percent this year.
However, the percentage paid for family coverage has been
constant at 27 percent or 28 percent for the last five years.

Employee costs have increased slightly even as the percentage
of the premium they pay has remained constant. This year,
single coverage rose $2 to $30 a month; family coverage rose
$12 to $150.

Employers primarily blame the premium hikes on prescription
drug costs. Sixty-four percent of employers say drug spending
contributed "a lot" to the overall costs. Other factors cited
as cost drivers were higher spending on hospital and physician
care, insurance company profits and better medical technology.

Employers say that even though the economy has cooled and
they don't fear losing employees, they still don't want to
pass through rising health care costs - even though many
are.

Rochester, N.H.-based Enterasys Networks Inc. has seen its
health care premiums rise for the past three years. This
year costs for the two plans it offers workers rose an average
of 18 percent. As a result, the computer networking company
plans to increase employee premiums Jan. 1, $10 for singles
to $45 or $55, and by $20 to $25, to $155 or $185, for families.

"We hate passing costs forward but we had to. We just couldn't
eat it all again this year," said Michael Newman, manager
of compensation and benefits.

Both the Kaiser Family Foundation and the Health Research
Educational Trust are nonprofit think tanks that focus on
health care.

Wanted: Enemy to Justify $344 Billion War Budget



by Ben Cohen, AlterNet
September 4, 2001

You may know some despicable characters, but are they mean enough to apply
for this job posting?
ENEMY WANTED. Serious enemy needed to justify Pentagon budget increase.
Defense contractors desperate. Interested enemies send letter and photo or
video (threatening, ok) to Enemy Search Committee, Priorities Campaign,
1350 Broadway, NY, NY, 10018.
Here's the deal: We know our politicians have their work cut out for
them.  They need to find an enemy to justify maintaining the Pentagon
budget as if the Cold War never ended. But the pool of credible enemies is
evaporating.  North Korea is even going diplomatic. The Soviets took
themselves out of the running years ago. And countries like Iraq, or tough
looking trading partners like China, don't make the cut.
So, I am distributing a job description as widely as possible to help our
politicians find the enemy they seek. Even with the help of defense
contractors, who spend $50 million on lobbyists annually, our politicians
do not possess the creativity to find the right adversary. It's clear that
the old concept of enemy doesn't work anymore.
The trouble is the Defense Department needs to find an enemy in a
hurry.  The Bush Administration has proposed to increase Pentagon spending
by $33 billion, the largest defense increase since the Cold War.
This inexplicable proposal is under attack by children's advocates, who
would rather use the $33 billion earmarked for the Pentagon to begin
modernizing our crumbling public schools and to buy health insurance for
millions of U.S. kids and Head Start for the one-third of eligible children
who can't get in because it's under-funded.
As pressure mounts to pay for these domestic programs, and the size of the
projected surplus shrinks, defense contractors and the Pentagon PR machine,
including their legion of liaisons on Capitol hill, are getting
nervous.  Meanwhile, high tech airplanes crash inexplicably, Star Wars
tests miss their targets, and the budget crunch in Congress looms. All of
this raises questions, questions, questions:
  - Why does the Pentagon need a budget of $344
billion, which would be over three times as much as the combined defense
spending of Russia, China, and America's potential adversaries (Cuba, Iran,
Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria)? And this does include not the
over $200 billion spent by U.S. allies annually on defense.
  - How do Congress and the President know how much
money the Pentagon needs when it can't pass a financial audit, despite
legal obligations to do so? Without audited books, the President and
Congress do not know for certain what the Pentagon has and what it really
needs.
  - Why does the federal government want to spend $344
billion on the Pentagon, when the federal government currently spends only
$42 billion on education, $26 billion on affordable housing, $6 billion on
Head Start, and only $1 billion on school construction? Does it appear that
our national priorities are mixed up or what?

These would be tough questions, even if America had a serious
enemy.  Without one, these are devastating questions, and it's so painful
to see our politicians trying to answer them that I want to help them find
an enemy as quickly as possible.
Larger trends are also causing our politicians to squirm when defending the
Pentagon budget, and frankly it's an embarrassing sight (hence, again, the
immediate enemy need). For example:
  - In our country, the richest nation in the world --
14 million kids attend schools that need extensive renovation or
replacement. In international test scores, our eighth graders rank 18 in
math and 19 in science, below Slovenia, Singapore, and Hungary, among others.
  - The child poverty rate hovers at over 15 percent,
meaning that about one in six kids lives in poverty.
  - Over 40 million Americans, including about 10
million children, have no health insurance.

My enemy search, if successful, would go a long way toward easing the
consciences of our politicians who support the fat Pentagon budget, which
diverts money from poor children, the environment, and other good things.
As of today, however, my search is not going well. So, I am open to any and
all suggestions or leads that you might have. I am, of course on the
lookout for the right headhunter, but none has materialized.
If you've got any killer ideas, please let me know.

[CTRL] Environmentally friendly explosives get ready for ignition

"Environmentally friendly" explosives get ready for ignition



05  September  01
Damian Carrington, Glasgow

The advent of environmentally friendly explosives has moved a step closer,
with German scientists solving the problem of water absorption in one
promising compound - the moisture literally turns the compound into a damp
squib.
"It may sound strange that military are concerned about health and safety,"
says Thomas Klapotke, at the University of Munich. "But 99.9 percent of
missile launches and explosions take place in training, over your own
territory and involving your own personnel."
Conventional explosives and missile propellants are packed with metals and
halogens, which can be harmful before and after combustion. Even guns can
produce smogs of lead compounds in the indoor shooting ranges now used by
many police forces, because lead azide is used as the initiator.
"I would not call them environmentally friendly, but environmentally
compatible," Klapotke told New Scientist. But replacing conventional
explosives with compounds containing only nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen and
oxygen means the only combustion products are N2, water and methane - "hot
air", says Klapotke.

Klaptoke has been working with the highly explosive compound hydrozinium
azide (N5H5) but the synthesis process used meant it was highly
hydroscopic. The water attracted completely defuses the explosive properties.
However, Klapotke found that by crystallising hydrozinium azide directly
from water-free hydrazine, the hydroscopic property was removed. The work
has just been published in the journal Propulsion, Explosives and Pyrotechnics.
Hydrozinium azide is particularly promising because its combustion products
are N2 and H2 alone. The lightness of these gases means that the detonation
velocity is especially high and when the H2 burns to produce water just
milliseconds later, a second powerful burst of energy is released.
Big bang
The new generation of explosives need not only be greener, they can also be
more powerful. Klapotke has found that diazyltetrozolate, which is 90
percent nitrogen by weight, is 25 percent more powerful than HMX, the most
powerful explosive currently in use.
A number of groups in countries belonging to the NATO military alliance are
investigating green explosives, but are taking different approaches. The
German team is looking at compounds that store their energy in single
nitrogen to nitrogen bonds. When detonated, the atoms form highly stable
triple nitrogen to nitrogen bonds, releasing energy.
In contrast, US teams are testing materials in which the energy is stored
as molecular strain in twisted chains or rings of atoms.
The key difficulty that remains to be overcome is cost. Currently green
explosives are 100 times more expensive to produce than conventional ones.
Klapotke believes that even at best the new generation materials will be
double or triple the price, but says that the military is highly committed
to developing less environmentally harmful options. "If your new explosive
has metals or halogens in, its not even worth putting on the drawing
board," he says.
Klapotke presented his research at the British Association's Festival of
Science in Glasgow.

Two Marijuana Activists Murdered By Federal and State Muscle

Two Marijuana Activists Murdered By Federal and State Muscle (english)  by Pete
Brady 7:00pm Wed Sep 5 '01 (Modified on 5:17am Thu Sep 6 '01)

Two prominent Michigan marijuana activists were shot dead Labor Day weekend,
during a police siege of the activists' "Rainbow Farm" compound in Vandalia,
Michigan.

Tom Crosslin, a 47-year-old events promoter who hosted pro-marijuana concerts
and rallies on his rural Southern Michigan land, was shot dead by federal and
state police on Monday. Rolland Rohm, 28, was shot Tuesday morning. Agencies
involved in the fatal siege include the Cass County Sheriff's Department,
Michigan State Police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Crosslin, Rohm and their allies have been sponsoring counterculture events,
including two High Times "WHEE" festivals, for several years. Entertainers like
Merle Haggard and The Birds graced the stage at Rainbow Farms happenings, which
were also known for their freewheeling recreational activities, such as the
famous "nude hippie mountain mud slide."

Police and other anti-drug minions had spent years trying to shut down Rainbow
Farms using techniques similar to those used against Oregon pot events promoter
Bill Conde, New York events organizer Rob Uncle Sam, and Washington
landowner-activist Gideon Israel. Crosslin had bitterly complained about police
roadblocks, undercover officers, and other harassment, which he believed were
being used to keep people away from his popular counterculture resort.

In May, police stormed Crosslin's 34-acre property and arrested him in
connection with alleged marijuana use and cultivation, as well as possession of
firearms. Crosslin and his attorneys insisted that the arrests were a
politically motivated attempt to shut down pro-marijuana activities that were
generally peaceful and posed no threat to the community.

Authorities responded by investigating Crosslin's accounting records and by
court-ordering him to abstain from holding any more marijuana-related events on
his land. They also initiated asset forfeiture proceedings, which Crosslin
described to friends as "the government trying to steal my property because
they don't like my political views."

Crosslin was out on $150,000 bond, facing 15 years in prison and the loss of
his property when he allegedly defied the court order and held a pot event at
Rainbow Farms in August.

Just before Labor Day weekend, officials told Crosslin his bond was going to be
revoked. Crosslin responded by setting fire to many of the buildings on his
property, and by allegedly shooting at media aircraft and police aircraft that
flew over his home as the situation became an armed siege.  As Labor Day
weekend commenced, squadrons of FBI agents and foot soldiers surrounded the
farm. Although police reports about Crosslin's death were not delivered in a
timely manner and contain puzzling omissions, current reports indicate that an
FBI agent killed Crosslin Monday afternoon when Crosslin and another activist
discovered the agent on Rainbow Farms property. Police allege that Crosslin
pointed a gun at the agent before he was shot.

The siege continued because Rohm and other Crosslin associates refused to
surrender. Police say Rohm was shot early Tuesday because he too pointed a gun
at an officer. Friends of Crosslin and Rohm who were camped near the Farm in a
support encampment disputed police reports, saying that the dead pair were
legally walking on their own property when they were shot in cold blood by
police.

Crosslin was widely respected in the North American marijuana movement and even
among his conservative non-pot smoking neighbors in Southern Michigan. He had a
20 year history of civil rights activism. He bought and restored a historic
brick house built in 1807 that had been used by anti-slavery "Underground
Railroad" activists during the 1800's, intending to use the house as an
educational "bed and breakfast." He donated thousands of dollars to local
charities, and worked hard to keep hard drugs, sexual harassment, and violence
out of his popular events, which sometimes drew as many as 20,000 visitors.

Cannabis movement videographer and potographer Chadman, whose digital photos
and movies have been widely distributed in cannabis media and mainstream media,
told Cannabis Culture that he had been to a dozen events at Rainbow Farm in the
last two years.

"Tom was a dedicated, caring guy," Chadman reported. "He wasn't a militia guy
or a gun nut, but he did believe in the Constitution and in freedom, and he
felt that if other people have a right to put on events where thousands of
people get drunk, shoot guns, tie cattle in ropes and otherwise act crazy, that
he had a right to provide a campground and entertainment for our non-violent
marijuana cultu

 You have never answered this...because the answer is too
  unpleasant for you to address - or perhaps not unpleasant just
  too revealing.

 I have mentioned repeatedly that I really don't care whether or not
 Israel is a racist, colonialist, theocracy. Certainly there are plenty
 of other nations that fit that category. What I object to is the constant
 claim that Israel is an enlightened nation that deserves a "special relationship"
with the US and billions of our tax money including state of the art military
weapons that are used against civilians.

It is the hypocritical sanctimony that I find offensive and the fact that
 our brainless support of Israeli oppression will certainly lead to a
 horrific event in this country if we insist on being the enabler of Israeli
 oppression.

I oppose aid to Israel for many of the same reasons I opposed aid
to Apartheid South Africa (which of course Israel had close milititary
and economic ties with).

Re: [CTRL] Report: Cult infant starved to death, buried in state park

[Saba]

-Caveat Lector-

Do you think anybody really cares about a 10 month old baby that was
starved to death; after all if it is acceptable to burn babies alive the
term is Wacoized, and then permissible to bash babies heads in as they
take a near breath of life - do you think any body cares really.   They
are probably just one of Joshua's Trailer Trash people or one of
Zionists fingernail?

People are afraid to eat today due to the poison being put out on the
web - food is contaminaed, immigrants hired as cheap food handlers, and
Sarah Lee is no longer fit to eat and I presume much of her food is
"kosher" but evidently filthy handling of food has made it well unsafe
and untrustworthy?

Wonder if these people have a computer or what garbage they have read -
but then what is another baby tossed in the garbage - it is done all the
time right?

One nice thing about this jewish mafia here - the black doctor that was
murdered by the hit man dressed like county sheriff as the assistant
county coroner looked on - and another doctor - this black doctor ran an
abortion clinic and I guess this is why most people did not give a rats
ass that somebody on a Halloween night, took a few shots at him - just
got carried away

So let them send them to jail for murder - but do not expect Eric
Rudolph to retaliate - he goes only after the ones who do it for big
bucks...

Wonder if someone will salvage enough baby body parts to make few bucks
on side.

Murder is murder - opiums dream is one thing and a vision of God is
reserved for the pure, in heart.

I doubt God would intercede here if he did not fit to intercede for  the
baby - for you see the Jewish Talmud and Old Testament calls for ritual
sacrifice?

But then we are just dealing with "trailer trash" here - right Joshua?

Saba

Whats the going price now for baby body parts?

[CTRL] The Hellenic group of ex- NATO Generals for Peace and Disarmament protest

[Mrs. Jela Jovanovic]

Dear Friends
 
We the Hellenic group of ex- NATO Generals for 
Peace and Disarmament protest  against the visit of 7 th  fleet to the 
civilian ports in Japan, so violating the Kobe Formula for the nuclear free 
ports.
 
The ruling class in USA is acting as the evil 
empire and try to subjugate all the world and install the world 
government.
 
THE EARTH IS CAPTIVE BY A NEW HITLER REGIME. THE 
LEADER IS INVISIBLE AT THIS MOMENT.And what are the leaders of the peace 
movement saying about all this? They say that they are having great success 
towards peace. I would rather see them present to the world the real 
state of affairs. We are not moving towards peace today; instead we are moving 
towards the universal catastrophe that Einstein and others spoke of in the 
past.I am asking the leaders of the NGO's - how long will they refuse to 
see reality? How long will we have the gift of time? The leadership of the peace 
movement must finally take the people of the earth on the streets. When 
will they do it? When the world will be in flames? It would be too 
late.
 

We, the world Peace Movement have to act in 
solidarity with the Anti - Globalization Movement against the NWO and 
activate all people ,  all nations against the nuclear weapons and the 
modern technology armament, such as  Stars War and other mass destruction 
weapons.

  Five naval ships of the US 7th Fleet made 
  simultaneous visits to four civilian ports in Japan on August 28. They entered 
  the ports of Himeji (Hyogo Prefecture), Wakayama (Wakayama Prefecture), 
  Nagoya  (Aichi Prefecture) and Shimizu (Shizuoka Prefecture). 
  
   
  This was the first visit by US warships to Himeji 
  and Wakayama.
   
  Himeji Port is in the same prefecture as Kobe 
  Port, better known as the Nuclear-free Kobe Formula. Himeji City has also 
  declared itself nuclear free, but the port's authority is the prefectural 
  government, not the city government, while Kobe Port is under the city 
  government's control. The prefectural government, after being urged by 
  citizens, asked the vessel if it respected the three Non-nuclear Principles 
  (not to manufacture, not to possess, not to allow the entry of nuclear 
  weapons). The vessel didn't respond whether or not it carried nuclear weapons 
  on board and came straight into the port. 
   
  After entering the port, Robert Rudan, US 
  Consulate General to Osaka, stated at a press conference on board that he 
  hoped that eventually US  warships would be allowed to enter the Port of 
  Kobe. He also said that this port call was aimed at improving mutual 
  friendship between Japan and the US, and said that Kobe was losing the 
  opportunity to strengthen ties between our two countries.
   
  No US warship has entered any ports in the 
  prefecture since the Kobe Formula was inplemented in 1975. This portcall is 
  obviously aimed at putting pressure on Kobe to abandon its nuclear-free Kobe 
  Formula.
   
  Five hundred protesters gathered at the port 
  early on the morning of August 28 to protest against the entry of the US 
  missile cruiser "Vincennes." Shortly before 8 am, the Vincennes entered the 
  port to a chorus of protest. "We do not want US warships to use our civil 
  ports," "Vincennes go home! Get out of our 
  port!" were some of the slogans hurled at the ship.
   
  Protests and demonstrations also took place in 
  Nagoya, Wakayama and Shizuoka.

Germany Seeks To Ban Islam
Says Islamics Are Engaged In "Anti-Israel Activity"

9/6/01 11:46:07 AM
LSN Staff

Berlin, Germany -- German Interior Minister Otto Schily stated yesterday
he wants to start
banning "radical Islam" because its adherents are engaged in "anti-Israel
activity", eliminating the law Constitutionally protecting of religious
freedom
in Germany in the process.

Revealing a list the government had compiled of 31,000 adherents of
"Islamic
extremism" living within German borders, Schily stated that the 1964 law
that
protects religions from being banned by the government should be repealed,
and
the government should immediately move to close down Islamic religious
centers
and mosques across the country.

Schily said that the Islamic community's hostility towards Israel made its
existence unacceptable to the German government, and cited in particular
the
fact that many Muslims were refusing to shop at Jewish stores as an act fo
solidarity with the Palestinians.  Schily said that boycotting businesses
that
work with Israel was "criminal" and "anti-Semitic", and that any criticism
of
the Jewish state was unacceptable in German society.

Schily's draft law repeals all religious freedom in Germany, and gives the
government the right to establish a state religion and ban religious
groups
that the government does not approve of.  In America, such government
activity
is prohibited by the First Amendment to the American Constitution, which
prohibits "the establishment of a religion" and guarantees freedom of
speech.

After its defeat in World War II, Germany had all its constitutional
liberties
stripped away by the Allied occupation force, and then had an alien Social
Democratic Constitution forced on it by outside powers.  The Constitution
doesn't allow Germans the right to free speech, to practice religion as
the see
fit, or the right keep and carry weapons.

Gitta Sereny has spent a lifetimes exploring the worst aspects of humanity,
and has faced many terrible truths. Yet she has never lost her belief in the
possibility of redemption. She talks to Erica Wagner

The girl is 11 years old. One day in 1934, she is travelling from her boarding
school in Kent back to her home in Vienna when her train breaks down in
Nuremberg. The German Red Cross, perhaps thinking to entertain her, finds
her a seat at the Nazi Party Congress, and she is swept away by its
fearsome pageantry: when she returns to school she writes an essay, “The
happiest day of my holiday”, describing it. Four years later, one night in a
Viennese park in March, 1938, she hears her best friend Elfie reveal that her
father is a member of the Nazi Party — which had been illegal — that he
says Austria will be “disinfected” of Jews, while all around them in the dark
she hears shouts: Germany awake! Jewry perish! Later, she stands beneath
the balcony of the Imperial Hotel and hears Hitler speak. Later still, she sees
the paediatrician who saved her life made to scrub the pavements with a
toothbrush. Yet it would be some time before that girl, Gitta Sereny, rejected
what she had seen.
Over 60 years later, in the comfortable sitting room of a book-lined flat in 
Kensington, Sereny is clearly still affected by what she saw as a girl — by what she 
failed to understand. “I remember extremely well sitting hi
gh up in this huge arena and these men — and Hitler of course — were tiny, far away 
and tiny. But their voices were huge — they had what must have been the most 
sophisticated sound system there was, even now it seems extr
emely well done. And it was just so beautiful. It was beautiful. And I am sure that 
all the children around me responded as I had done. What is more frightening is that 
in 1938, when the Nazis came into Austria, I would h
ave thought that I would have known better, and I was again overcome. That is really 
strange. That was after I knew of my friend Elfie’s horror that her father had been an 
illegal, that she must never speak to any Jew aga
in; had heard the terrible chorus of Deutschland erwache! Juda verrecke! Listening to 
that was probably was more frightening than anything else. Standing in that dark park 
in Vienna, where I had played my whole childhood.
 . . It was the most peaceful place on earth for me. And there we stood, just below 
the statue of Johann Strauss, and we heard these terrible words. All right, so I had 
all that — and then the encounter with my paediatric
ian. . . so I knew. For God’s sake, I was 15 years old, I knew. And I think this is 
the question that we need to ask ourselves very seriously. Why do we succumb? Why do 
the Africans succumb to Mugabe? What is it? What is
it in these individuals who have this hellish gift — which Hitler had — that pulls us? 
Because it persuades us. I swear to you, I think of this now very, very often.”
That Sereny knew — as she says — and was still persuaded, is perhaps what has enabled 
her to do what she does: to explore what it is that makes what we might call monsters. 
Into That Darkness was her account of Franz Stan
gl, commandant of Treblinka; Albert Speer: His Battle with Truth looked into the soul 
of Speer, Hitler’s cultured Minister of Munitions and who, as Sereny wrote, “I knew 
well and grew to like”; Cries Unheard was her secon
d book about Mary Bell, who, in 1968, killed two little boys when she was the same age 
as the Sereny who sat in the arena at Nuremberg.
Now comes the paperback publication of The German Trauma, a collection of essays — in 
one of which she tells the story of her childhood experience of the Nazi Party 
Congress and the Anschluss — that reflects her life’s wo
rk in connection with that country, a country she believes has now changed out of all 
recognition. “This book is supposed to show that the German personality has really 
changed, which is an admirable thing. It is the only
 country in the world that has taken issue with its past. Don’t you think that’s 
extraordinary? Given the awful things their grandfathers did. The German young are 
really so different now.”
Sereny, now at work on a history of Vienna in the 20th century, believes in redemption 
— which is remarkable, given what she has seen. Born in the Austrian capital to an 
actress mother and a Hungarian father who died when
 she was two, at 16 she fled finishing school for Paris, and worked as a volunteer 
nurse when France was occupied. After the war she joined the United Nations Relief and 
Rehabilitation Administration as a child welfare of
ficer to work in the displaced persons camps in what became the American zone of 
Germany. From this stems the two aspects of her work: her interest in children

Background: The International Institute of Rural Reconstruction
(IIRR) is a private development organization whose self-stated goal
is to help "third world villagers overcome poverty, hunger and
disease so they can have enough to live on and something worthwhile
to live for."(1)

IIRR grew out of a grassroots development movement which was
founded by IIRR's chair (as of 1987), Dr. Y.C. James Yen, in China
over 60 years ago. Starting with literacy campaigns, the group
progressively moved towards its philosophy of "empowering the
people" by including education, health, livelihood and self-
government in their program. IIRR was officially founded in 1951
and incorporated in 1960 in the U.S. as an educational nonprofit
organization.(1,2)

Countries: Anguilla, Antigua, CO, DM, ET, GH, GN, GT, IN, Nevis,
PH, St. Christopher, ST. Lucia, ST. Vincent, TH, ZB. Funding: IIRR
lists a large number of major donors in its 1985 annual report.
These include: Austin L. Adams, Arthur Andersen and Co., BankAmerica
Foundation, Rosarie O. Baylon, Mr. and Mrs. Allen L. Boorstein,
Borg-Warner Foundation, Russell D. Boyer, Bristol-Myers Co.,
Captive Fastner Corporation, Ciba-Geigy Corporation, Citibank N.A.,

Brothers Fund, Luis Schuchinski, The Seth Sprague Educational and
Charitable Foundation, Frank A. Sprole, The Starr Foundation,
Robert D. Stern, U.S. Agency for International Development, and
Mr. and Mrs. Kim Winick.(1)

In 1985 IIRR received $10,000 from the BankAmerica Foundation. In
the same year they received $25,000 from the Rockefeller Brothers
Fund "towards a project to develop cooperative relations with the
People's Republic of China."(3) In 1986 they received $7,500 from
the Skaggs (L.J.) and Mary C. Skaggs Foundation which went to IIRR's
affiliate, the South Asia Rural Reconstruction Association.(3) In
1987 IIRR was given $10,000 by the International Foundation for a
project in Colombia.(4)

In 1985, IIRR was awarded a $100,000, two-year challenge grant by
the Dewitt Wallace Fund to increase private contributions from new
and previous donors on a one-to-one matching basis. Wallace is the
founder of Readers Digest and according to IIRR, one of its "most
generous supporters."(1)

In 1986, IIRR's total support and revenue amounted to $1,858,749.
The sources of that funding can be broken down as follows: U.S.
government grants, $692,682; other government and international
organizations, $50,401; private contributions, $847,992; and
private revenue $267,674.(5)

In 1987 IIRR's total support and revenue amounted to $2,752,789.
The sources are broken down as follows: U.S. government grants,

Groups Reject Anti-Israel Language
Photos

By DINA KRAFT, Associated Press Writer

DURBAN, South Africa (AP) - Human rights groups are distancing themselves from the 
declaration of an international forum that accuses Israel of genocide and ethnic 
cleansing.

At least 77 of 166 organizations that took part in the U.N. human rights forum in 
Durban, South Africa - which coincided with the world conference against racism - 
signed a statement Wednesday rejecting anti-Israel language in the declaration as 
``disrespectful, intolerant, and contradictory.''

The forum was dominated by the Middle East conflict, with daily anti-Israel protests 
by Palestinians. Caricatures of Jews and anti-Semitic pamphlets also were distributed 
at the gathering.

The declaration was passed in a rancorous, chaotic meeting Sunday that Jewish groups 
said was rife with anti-Semitic hostility.

Although the human rights meeting ended Sunday, the fallout began mounting only in 
recent days.

Among those rejecting the declaration was the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights, 
the largest and oldest U.S. civil rights association.

The discussions at the conference ``clearly cross the line into anti-Semitism,'' said 
Wade Henderson, executive director of the group.

Human rights groups also condemned the way the forum was conducted, describing it as 
undemocratic and criticizing the voting process as unorganized and confused. One 
member of the steering committee resigned, citing ``fundamental procedural flaws.''

U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Mary Robinson, who organized the ongoing world 
conference on racism, said the declaration's ``hurtful'' language made it impossible 
for her to recommend it to the larger U.N. meeting.

However, a group of Arab organizations defended the declaration, saying that in 
rejecting it, Robinson ``rejected the voices of all the victims of racism.''

Pro-Palestinian groups had lobbied many of the groups attending the conference to 
equate Zionism - the movement to establish and maintain a Jewish state - with racism. 
Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories was also decried as colonialism.

The document brands ``Israel as a racist apartheid state'' and calls for an end to the 
``ongoing, Israeli systematic perpetration of racist crimes, including war crimes, 
acts of genocide and ethnic cleansing.''

For Jewish groups like the Anti-Defamation League, the human rights group's opposition 
to the declaration may have come to late.

``The conference was over four days ago. How long does it take to recognize hateful 
language?'' said Stacey Burdett, a spokesman for the ADL.

[CTRL] Fwd: [CIA-DRUGS] cia goes primetime (with more propaganda for the masses)

[Kris Millegan]

The CIA Goes Primetime on CBS

by Jeff Cohen
    
In a country where separation of media and state is so valued, should a
TV network allow a government agency to have an editorial role in how
that agency is portrayed on the air?


The question is raised by the input and support CBS has accepted from
the Central Intelligence Agency in producing its new weekly drama about
the CIA, "The Agency," which premieres this month.


One wonders if CBS executives remember "The FBI," the dramatic series
starring Efrem Zimbalist Jr. that was one of the great feats in
propaganda history. Week after week for nine years, it presented an
unvaryingly upbeat -- and largely distorted -- portrait of a highly
ethical, non-politicized institution keeping America safe from internal
and external enemies. It was a portrait jointly shaped by ABC, a private
network, and the FBI, a secretive government agency that had say over
scripts and story lines.


Each episode displayed the FBI seal and thanked director J. Edgar Hoover
for his cooperation. As far back as the newsreels of John Dillinger's
capture, Hoover knew that polishing the Bureau's image through the mass
media was a key to ever more power and more funding.


After "The FBI" went off the air in 1973, Congressional hearings and
Freedom of Information lawsuits revealed that -- during the nine years
of sanitized hero-worship on ABC -- the Bureau was systematically
abusing the First Amendment rights of countless civil rights and peace
advocates, from grass roots activists to John Lennon and Martin Luther
King Jr. "The FBI" offered no episodes about that FBI.


Zimbalist and his TV cohorts waged war against organized crime, but in
the real world, the FBI's efforts were half-hearted at best. In 1968,
for example, when activist/comedian Dick Gregory made a speech
denouncing the Mafia as "snakes" for importing drugs into the inner
city, J. Edgar Hoover reacted by trying to provoke the mob into
retaliating against the comedian. Hoover wrote that the FBI should
develop "a counterintelligence operation to alert La Cosa Nostra to
Gregory's attack on LCN."


Those dozen words shed more accurate light on the character and
activities of the Bureau than all the weekly ABC episodes that year.


Apparently unconcerned with this history, CBS's "The Agency" has invited
the participation of the CIA, an institution with a history at least as
controversial as the FBI's. The CBS project readily won the support of
the CIA and its public liaison officer with Hollywood, Chase Brandon,
whose job is CIA image-enhancement.


A decade after the collapse of our Soviet enemy (which the CIA largely
failed to predict), positive media presentations can help sell the
public on the need for the CIA and its estimated $30 billion price tag.
Each week "The Agency" will glorify CIA officers who save the world from
Arab terrorists, drug-runners, kidnappers and assorted cutthroats.


A new ABC spy series, "Alias," has also received some CIA assistance,
but Brandon refused requests to help two forthcoming CIA-related movies
-- one starring Robert Redford and Brad Pitt , another starring Matt
Damon -- because he deemed them insufficiently positive: "If someone
wants to slander us," Brandon told the Washington Post, "it's not in our
interest to cooperate." Echoes of J. Edgar.


After meeting the creator of "The Agency" and reviewing scripts, Brandon
granted unprecedented CIA support for the CBS series because "it would
show our spirit, patriotism and dedication." As the New York Times
described, CBS was even allowed to shoot parts of its pilot at CIA
headquarters in Langley, Virginia, using off-duty CIA employees as
extras. For interior sets in Los Angeles, the CIA has provided agency
seals. "Much to the delight of the agency," the Times reported, "CBS
clearly has become an agency booster."


Series creator Michael Beckner explained CIA involvement to the Richmond
Times-Dispatch: "[The series] is not going to demonize them.What
attracted them to cooperating with us is the fact that we want to tell
stories about the lives of the people that work there."


Producers say the CIA will have input on scripts but not script
"approval." Executive Producer Shaun Cassidy commented on the CIA's
script involvement : "Their support is a strictly case-by-case basis. If
they don't like the script, we won't have their support that week."


But should network TV producers be showing scripts to a government
agency in hopes of getting its support? And if a series is that cozy
with its subject, how much integrity can the program have?


In recent years, the CIA has worked hand-in-hand with brutal regimes and
armies. It has helped overthrow elected governments. CBS knows it will
abruptly lose its access and support if "The Agency" focuses on the
CIA's less savory activities or blunders.


As long as CBS and the CIA remain wedded, don't expect a hard-hitting
episode on the agency's allian

Part 7: Analysis -- Immigration and welfare
By STEVE SAILER, UPI National Correspondent

 (Part 7 of UPI's 14-part series on immigration)

 The beggars on a street in Moscow unwittingly played a part in a study
bearing on some of the most urgent questions in the social sciences. Are
ethnically diverse societies less generous to the poor? Does immigration
undermine support for welfare programs by increasing diversity?

 The question is overlooked but important as the nation debates how to deal
with estimated 9 million illegal aliens in the United States, and the
millions more struggling to make their way here at almost any cost.

 Some of the Moscow panhandlers were Russians, just like the vast majority
of the pedestrians. Others were dressed in the distinctive garb of Moldova,
a small former Soviet republic that gained independence in 1991. Finally,
some of the beggars were darker-skinned Gypsies (also known as Roma), who
are visibly of South Asian origin.

 Unbeknownst to them, the beggars were being monitored by a team of
ethologists (students of the science of behavior). They were led by Frank K.
Salter, an Australian political scientist at the Max Planck Institute in
Germany, and Marina Butovskaya of the Russian State University for
Humanities, who may be Russia's most prominent human ethologist.

 The researchers counted each time a passerby gave money to a beggar. A
pattern soon emerged. The Russian pedestrians preferred to give to their
fellow Russians, with the Moldavians, their fellow Eastern Europeans, as
their second choice. The Asiatic Gypsies were so unpopular that they had to
resort to a wide variety of tactics to scrounge spare change, ranging from
singing and dancing, to importuning tightwads, to dressing up their children
in crutches and eye-patches.

 The huge United Way charity of America seldom capers for alms on street
corners, yet a similar human tendency to give more to the needy when they
are members of one's race has been observed among its donors, too.

 Salter said, "The more homogenous a county, the more they gave to the
United Way."

 Further, the generosity of the welfare programs in democratic countries is
significantly correlated with ethnic homogeneity.

 Salter has edited for publication in 2002 a book titled "Welfare,
Ethnicity, & Altruism: New Data & Evolutionary Theory" (Frank Cass
Publishers). In it, 16 academics discuss the growing evidence that diversity
and compassion don't mix.

 For example, the welfare state originated and still flourishes best in the
highly homogenous lands of North Central Europe. Chancellor Otto von
Bismarck invented modern social programs in late 19th century Germany. Since
then, the spiritual home of the welfare state has become Scandinavia.

 Among Nordic peoples, welfare programs might be most popular of all in
Iceland, which has had no significant immigration in about 1,000 years.

 Icelanders are so genetically homogenous that deCODE Genetics has chosen
Iceland as the perfect place to look for disease-causing genetic mutations,
as there is so little random variation in Icelanders' genomes to confuse the
search. Genealogist Fridrik Skulason, head of the project to create the
Icelandic national family tree, estimates that two random Icelanders would
be, on average, sixth or seventh cousins to each other.

 In contrast, the United States has always had a large non-white population
and has frequently had a high proportion of immigrants. It has also
traditionally offered the lowest welfare payment levels of any rich
democracy.  Interestingly, most American social programs came into existence
during the long period from 1924 to 1968 when immigration was largely shut
off.

 While transfer payments to the elderly remain popular in America, welfare
payments to the poor, who tend to be minorities, were allowed to decline in
real terms through most of the last quarter of the 20th century. This
culminated in 1996 when Aid to Families with Dependent Children was
radically reduced.

 In an interview this summer at a human ethology conference that he and
Butovskaya organized in Moscow, Salter argued that while the specific
history of race relations in the United States played a role in the 1996
welfare reform, "Blaming welfare cutbacks in the United States on white
opposition to blacks doesn't explain the global correlation."

 Switzerland, with three major ethnic groups (German, French, and Italian),
makes an interesting test case. Overall welfare payments are lower in
Switzerland than in most European countries, especially the neighboring
Alpine state of Austria, which might seem similar, but is highly homogenous
ethnically.

 Interestingly, homogenous states also tend to give more foreign aid.
Denmark is the biggest giver in the world on a per capita basis, while the
United States is far down the list. Perhaps, generalizing from their ow

Slavery reparation: why now?
by Josie Appleton
Slavery reparation is one of the political hot potatoes being juggled by
Western nations at the UN World Conference against Racism in South
Africa. The USA has now pulled out of the conference in response to the row
over Israel, but it won't escape the slavery issue by going home. In this case,
home is exactly where the problem is.
This became clear as differences broke out between African leaders and the
African-American members of US congress who attended the conference:
while African leaders called for an apology for slavery and colonialism, it was
the US congress members who wanted to push for financial redress (1).
It is only in the USA that slavery reparation has become a serious
possibility, commanding the support of politicians, academics and other
public figures. Economists have done the sums on how much the
descendants of slavery are owed, lawyers are preparing a case to be filed
later this year - and given the legal precedents of payouts to Native
Americans and other groups, they stand a real chance of success.
Even without getting into socioeconomic arguments about the inequalities in 
contemporary America, it is clear that a system abolished before any of today's black 
Americans were born cannot be held responsible for the prob
lems facing black America in the here and now. But despite the absurdity of 
calculating the amount owed to today's black Americans on the basis of their 
ancestors' suffering, brains have been churning on this very problem
. The results make for some creative mathematics.
The African American Reparation Action Network goes back to bills put forward by 
senators at the turn of the century (which were blocked by Southern votes), which 
promised each slave 40 acres and $100 for building a dwell
ing (2). They calculate that with inflation this means that every African American is 
owed 40 acres and $100,000, or just $200,000. Others refer back to a different version 
of the bill, which offered every black American
40 acres, $50 dollars and a mule (though how one calculates inflation on a mule is not 
quite clear).
Another approach is to extrapolate from slaves' lost wages. Time magazine columnist 
Jack White calculates that black Americans are owed $24trillion, based on unpaid wages 
owed to 10million slaves, doubled for pain and suf
fering (3). Economist Larry Neal calculates that the value of expropriated slave 
labour between 1620 and 1865 is now worth around $9.7trillion (4).
These calculations are somewhat arbitrary. Why base today's claims on a rejected 
government bill from decades ago? How can you claim back wages from five generations 
ago? Why double the value of unpaid wages on the basis
of the pain and suffering endured by slaves - why not triple it, or quadruple it?
It seems the past is being scoured for a monetary indication of the suffering of 
slaves, which is then increased in line with inflation and held up as the amount due 
to black Americans today. This exercise indicates less
about the terrible institution of slavery than it does about the peculiarity of the 
contemporary mindset.
Until relatively recently, the demand for slavery reparations was limited to black 
radical groups, such as Louis Farrakhan's Nation of Islam, and won little support 
among mainstream society. The International Tribunal on
Reparations for African People in the USA, for example, was an offshoot of the Black 
Panthers movement (5). Reparation demands were often anti-white and separatist. In 
1968, the Republic of New Africa called for $400billi
on in reparations to finance an independent black republic (5).
Today, by contrast, the demand has moved into the heart of the US liberal elite - and 
carries the banner, not of black separatism, but of national unification and the 
'healing' of social divisions. The Democratic Party ha
s agreed that it will champion up to $440billion of reparations (6). Senator John 
Coyers Jr has 31 sponsors for a bill in the Senate that will pledge millions to 
studying the possibility of reparations for slavery. At lea
st 10 US city councils, including California and Chicago, have endorsed the idea of a 
federal 'impact statement' on slavery (7). Academic conferences have been held on the 
subject, and a number of academics support the re
paration cause.
A coalition of civil rights groups has launched a suit against the government and 
surviving businesses that profited from slavery - represented by a 'dream team' of 
lawyers led by Harvard professor Charles Ogletree, and a
lso including Johnny Cochran (who represented OJ Simpson), Alexander Pires Jr (who won 
a $1billion settlement for black farmers from the US Department of Agriculture), and 
Richard Scruggs (who won a $368billion dollar set
tlement for states against tobacco companies) (8).

Equal Opportunity For High Decibel Haters!
By James Fulford
Recently Bob Herbert of the New
  York Times has come out with a critique of racist white
music. (“High Decibel Hate”, NYT,
  August 20, 2001) Mr. Herbert has unearthed some
  genuine white racists who are actually preaching
  racial doctrines, hatred for other races,
  glorification of violence, and, instead of just
  denying the existence of the Holocaust, actually
  saying it was a Good Thing.
He’s talking about Hammerfest
  2000, which took place in October, 2000, near Bremen,
  Georgia (pop. 4,500.) Nowhere in the story, which
  seems a bit stale in August of 2001, does he mention the
attendance at this function:
The Anti-Defamation League puts
  it at – wait for it! – three
  hundred (300).
The plain fact is that,
  numerically, the white racist population in America is
  very small. When Morris Dees managed to have the Aryan
  Nation "compound" confiscated, what he got
  was a twenty-acre farm.
I am going to pause briefly to
  condemn these racist rockers as being "mad, bad,
  and dangerous to know." Personally, I don't like
  their doctrines, I don't like their attitude, and I'm
  sure if I listened to their music, I wouldn't like
  that either. OK?
But
  they don't represent white opinion in general. Nor
  are they much of a danger to society. There have been
  crimes committed by people who think that way in
  recent years, the most horrific being the death of
  James Byrd in Texas. But if you put all the deaths and
  injuries committed by these types the last ten years
  in a pile, it wouldn't equal two weeks of the violence
  committed in the last year of the Dinkins
  administration in New York. That year there were 2,000
  murders in the NY metropolitan area.
I wrote recently about the Lonnie Rae
  ‘hate crime” in Idaho. Idaho's black population is
  only about 5000 according to the Census. But they certainly 
outnumber members of the Aryan Nations
  there.
There's an Intelligence Project
  set up by the SPLC to find these guys. Just the fact that 
you need an intelligence project to find them suggests that they're fairly small.
BUT – and it’s a big but -  Herbert
  certainly knows about another kind of music that
  preaches racist doctrines, glorifies inter-racial
  violence, and whose artists are regularly involved in
  shootings.
It's called rap or hip-hop. It's
  a 1.7 billion dollar a year industry. It glorifies race 
hatred
  of whites, Jews,
  and Koreans.
  It also glorifies violence against women.
Rappers don’t only glorify
  violence, they commit it. Rappers often have a
  background in violent crime that they carry into the
  music industry with them. So you have people who are 
multi-millionaires committing crimes that are more
  typical of the hard-core unemployed. Rap music critics
  have been beaten and threatened. Frank Alexander, Tupac 
Shakur’s
  bodyguard, wrote a book called Got Your
  Back : Protecting Tupac in the World of Gangsta Rap, which
  talks about a lifestyle that sounds like it
  came out of a Robert B. Parker novel.
New
  York Magazine published an article that asked “After a 
series of high-profile run-ins with hip-hop
  musicians, the NYPD is circulating an internal list
  identifying their cars. Is it "rapper profiling"?”
No, you idiots, it’s gangster
  profiling.
White racism may have inspired
  several murders and a number of beatings, not to
  mention harassment campaigns. Rappers have started whole 
riots. The Koreans were victims in the Rodney

Archbishop: Mother Teresa underwent exorcism
September  5, 2001 Posted:  9:20 PM EDT (0120 GMT)

Mother Teresa

By Satinder Bindra
CNN New Delhi Bureau

CALCUTTA, India (CNN) -- Senior church officials in Calcutta acknowledge
Mother Teresa had an exorcism performed on her in the latter years of life.
The exorcism took place in a hospital where she had gone for cardiac
problems, said Archbishop of Calcutta Henry D'Souza. The archbishop
himself had been hospitalized at the same facility and shared the same
doctor as Mother Teresa.
He said he noticed that while Mother Teresa was calm during the day, at
night she appeared "extremely agitated." D'Souza said Mother Teresa would
pull off wires and other monitoring equipment stuck to her body.

VIDEO CNN's Satinder
 Bindra sheds new light on Mother Teresa's struggles with God, religion and
subsequent exorcism (September 5)
Play video
(QuickTime, Real or Windows Media) He said that is when he believed
Mother Teresa "might be under the attack of the evil one." He offered to
arrange for an exorcism for the elderly nun. She agreed.
"So I said let's do the prayer of exorcism over her. So I called one of the
priests who was a holy man in Calcutta," D'Souza said. "I told him, 'Please
say the prayer of exorcism over Mother Teresa.' And he got a shock and
said, 'Shall I pray and should I drive out the devil if it's there?'"
"I said, 'Yes, you do.' But he says, 'What will the devil do to me?' I said to
him, 'You command the devil to go if he's there. In the name of the church,
as archbishop, I command you to go and do it.'"
After the exorcism was over, the archbishop said Mother Teresa "slept like a
baby."
He emphasized that other great religious leaders faced similar challenges.
D'Souza said the revelations about Mother Teresa show that she was "both
holy and human," making her even more special.
The archbishop also corroborated earlier reports on CNN that Mother Teresa
felt abandoned by God at times during her life.
Those revelations were first made to CNN by Mother Teresa's closest
confidante, Sister Nirmala, who now heads the order, Missionaries of
Charity, established by Mother Theresa in 1950.
"This is part of the spiritual life of people, and God sometimes wants to unite
the soul very closely to himself. He will allow them to feel abandoned by
Him. And Jesus also on the cross felt he was abandoned," Sister Nirmala
said.
She said Mother Teresa is most remembered for her humanness -- "How
human she was, how loving she was. How she wanted to be just one of us."
D'Souza told CNN that Mother Teresa felt abandoned particularly in her early
years -- feelings she revealed in letters.
He said in one letter she wrote that she had been walking the streets of
Calcutta all day searching for a house where she could start her work.
"At the end of the day, she came back and she wrote in her diary, 'Today, I
wandered the streets the whole day. My feet are aching and I have not been
able to find a home. And I also get the temptation, of the tempter telling me,
"Leave all this, go back to the convent in which you came."'"
She found her home and the rest is history. The Missionaries of Charity
feeds 500,000 families a year in Calcutta alone, treats 90,000 leprosy
patients annually and educates 20,000 children every year.
Millions of Indians marked the fourth anniversary of her death (she died
September 5, 1997). The archbishop led a Mass Wednesday morning at the
Motherhouse, where Mother Teresa lived. Statues in the house were
decorated with garlands and her grave was bedecked in flowers.
The Vatican has begun the process of trying to declare her a saint who
dedicated her life to the service of the poor.
"Today, Mother is with God. Now in his presence, she has more power with
God. She is no more on earthly level," Sister Nirmala said. "She has passed
to eternal life. There she is very, very powerful."

Woman admits KKK attack a hoax
'Victim' carved initials into her own chest with pair of scissors
By SAMMY ALLEN of the Gazette Staff
LINDEN, Texas-A 32-year-old black woman lied about being abducted and
assaulted by two white men last week, Cass County authorities said
Tuesday.
Chief Deputy Ronnie Fincher said the Bivins, Texas, woman also etched the
letters "KKK" into her own chest.
"She admitted it to the FBI agent and one of our deputies," Fincher said
Tuesday afternoon. "She can't give us an answer as to why she did it.
Charges are pending against her."
Authorities said the woman may have been involved in an interracial affair
with a white man-the same one she told investigators picked her up
Thursday morning after she was allegedly thrown from a pickup after being
held captive overnight by two white men.
"They say they're just friends," Fincher said of the couple.  "The (FBI) agent
and the deputy got him to admit she spent the night at his house. Authorities
said both the man and woman were recently separated from their s
pouses.
The woman filed a report Thursday with the sheriff's office claiming two white men 
wearing white sheets or pillow cases over their heads had abducted her in a pickup. 
She was treated at Atlanta Memorial Hospital for sever
al injuries and was examined for possible sexual assault.
Fincher said the woman had injuries to her body, but the story she told to back up her 
claims was not true.
"It was all fabricated," Fincher said. He said the woman carved the letters
KKK on her chest with a pair of scissors.
Cass County investigators had already voiced doubts about the  racial attack
Tuesday morning during the news conference. The FBI agent arrived later in
the day and questioned the woman and witnesses.
"The letters appear to be mirror images-as if someone did them while looking
in a mirror," Fincher said.
Cass County investigator Sgt. Ray Copeland said much time and effort was
spent looking into the woman's claims. "We went door-to-door Friday in the
area where she said she was kidnapped. We notified authorities in the
surrounding area with the description of the truck.
"We've stopped several vehicles fitting that description in the Bivins, Linden
and Atlanta area and identified the drivers."

No question that the parents deserve to be charged with neglect and
murder.  But it will be interesting to see how the court handles Mingo's
case, and the general concept of 'visions from God'.  Seems to me that
even if a whole slew of theologians are called to testify as to whether
God really would or would not order a baby to be fed only breastmilk, the
prosecution is going to have a hard time of it proving that Mingo
'concocted' her alleged vision, or sincerely believed she had had one,
no matter how bizarre the rest of us feel that 'vision' was...

(10:00) Israeli teens refuse to serve in army of 'terror'


September, 05 2001



Sixty-two Israeli teens from around the country said this morning they
will refuse to serve in the IDF.

In a letter to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, the group wrote they cannot
agree to be drafted to an army they say is
committing crimes in the territories.

The teens said they believe the IDF is participating in terrorist
operations against Palestinian targets, and that Israeli
security can only be obtained via diplomatic efforts.

Education Minister Limor Livnat said in response that the group
represents a small population of youth which does not
know how to differentiate between victim and attacker, Army Radio
reported.

[CTRL] Facts, Not Fear (fwd)

Environmental Education: Fact or Fiction
By Charles R. MiVille, Washington, D.C., correspondent

http://www.family.org/cforum/fnif/news/A0017529.html

It's a scary scenario: New York City flooded by global warming, acid rain
destroying our lakes and rivers. Most scientists would call this science
fiction, but it's being taught in many public schools as fact.

If your child comes home from school and tells you that soon there will be
no more elephants or monkeys, you can thank the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA). In fact, it comes right from textbooks that are funded by the
EPA.

"(Y)ou have young children frightened . . . worried . . . poorly informed,
thinking they're learning scientific information when they really aren't,"
said Jane Shaw, co-author of the book, Facts, Not Fear. "(Y)ou have a bad
situation that's only going to get worse as they get older."

Shaw said the EPA is using fear tactics.

"They want to keep kids worried and anxious so they will continue to
support Environmental Protection Agency actions which, unfortunately, are
often enforcement type actions," Shaw said.

Michael Sanera, a co-author with Shaw, said the EPA is part of a coalition
that includes a host of activist groups.

"The goal is to activate kids, and so what you see in tandem is bad
information about the environment placed right next to urging kids to do
something about it," Sanera said.

Congress stopped funding EPA school programs five years ago, but the money
could come back in the latest education bill.

"There is support among certain House members to pull that out because it's
not germane at all to the president's education bill," Sanera said.

According to Shaw and Sanera, the EPA has been indoctrinating teachers to
its radical agenda for years.

According to a recent study, 60 percent of the teachers who are using
textbooks produced by environmental groups claim they don't see any bias.
They also don't distinguish between environmentalists and environmental
activists.

TAKE ACTION: Please contact your representative and senators and ask them
to make sure that no funding be included in the education bill for EPA
school programs.

[CTRL] The Donald Scott Case is Still Going

COLUMN: Boy, do they ever want Trails End Ranch
Boy, do they ever want Trails End Ranch





The Donald Scott case isn't as well known as the government atrocities at
Waco and Ruby Ridge. But it should be.

In October of 1992, millionaire recluse Donald Scott and his bride of two
months, Frances Plante Scott, lived in a storybook wooded valley in the
mountains high above Malibu, Calif. Trails End Ranch is almost completely
surrounded by state and federal park land, and the neighboring government
entities had made numerous attempts to buy out Scott and annex his property.

Frances Scott contends the National Security Agency and NASA's Jet Propulsion
Laboratories have also had a less-well-known role in the attempted government
land grab -- the ranch sits in the midst of a government antenna array,
perfectly sited to receive data from the Pacific Missile Test Range, and, "My
husband was the only local resident to testify against the placement of those
antennas."

Stymied in their attempt to buy the Scott ranch, government officials hit on
an alternative plan. Contending an officer had seen "marijuana plants growing
under the trees" during a drug-seeking overflight, agents from various
jurisdictions gathered quietly outside the locked gate to the ranch in the
morning mists of Oct. 2, 1992. After greedily studying the maps of the 200
acres of prime land they were told they'd be able to grab under federal asset
seizure laws should they find as few as 14 marijuana plants, they cut the
chain on the gate with bolt-cutters and raced a mile up the dirt drive to the
ranch, complete with police dogs.

Frances Scott was in the kitchen, brewing her morning coffee, when dozens of
men in plainclothes and brandishing guns -- no badges or warrants in evidence
-- came swarming in. Understandably, she screamed for her husband, still
asleep upstairs.

Donald Scott, 63, came hurrying down the stairs, a handgun held over his
head. The officers shouted for him to lower his weapon. He did. They shot him
dead.

Frances Scott contends the photograph of two plainclothes cops displayed at
her web site, www.savetrailsend.org, was taken mere minutes after her
husband's death. The two officers wear grins of triumph.

Ventura County District Attorney Michael Bradbury, after a six-month
investigation, concluded a voluminous report
(www.savetrailsend.org/report.shtml) by branding the fatal raid "a land grab
by the [L.A.] Sheriffs Office." He confirms the odd fact that "Two
researchers from Jet Propulsion Laboratories (JPL) in Pasadena" were also
present for the so-called drug raid, and asks in his conclusion, "Did the Los
Angeles County Sheriff obtain the warrant in order to obtain Scott's land?
Did the National Park Service orchestrate the investigation or killing in
order to obtain the land?"

Not a single marijuana seed or stem was ever found: "All they had to show for
their trouble was this body on the living room floor," reported the Los
Angeles Times.

The multiple government agencies settled a wrongful death suit for $5
million.

One would think that would leave Trails End Ranch securely in the hands of
the widow Scott, who has made it her life's work to see the government never
gets the property. But if one assumed that, one would not be properly
accounting for the creativity and plain, cussed persistence of today's
government land thieves.

A year after the raid and shooting, the widow Scott had to stand alongside 15
local firefighters and watch as the main house, cabins and other outbuildings
of Trail's End Ranch burned to the ground. She says a county firefighter told
her with tears in his eyes that a National Parks spokesman denied the firemen
permission to dig a firebreak, since, "It violates our rules to disturb the
natural beauty of the land."

Many would have expected Mrs. Scott to depart after being burned out of house
and home. Instead, she's spent the past six years camped out on the property
in a teepee. Mrs. Scott's current problem? The ranch went to Donald Scott's
estate, of which she controls only a minority share, the rest going to his
children by a previous marriage. The IRS appraises the ranch at $2.4 million,
and wants inheritance tax on $1 million of that sum, at 55 percent.

The attorneys for the children have advised them the ranch would be hard to
market -- the official appraisal describes it as inaccessible, though Mrs.
Scott says the mile-long access road is still perfectly functional -- and
that they'll be better off selling the property to pay the taxes.

Thus, on Aug. 2, a police SWAT team accompanied by two helicopters arrived to
evict Mrs. Scott.

Out of the $5 million wrongful death settlement, 40 percent went to the
lawyers off the top, while the rest was split six ways. Once Mrs. Scott paid
off her own eight years worth of legal bills, that left her barely enough to
offer a $170,000 down pa

Hebrew Word 'Goy' is Racist and Hateful

Hebrew 'Goy' is defined in Webster's as a non-Jew or a Gentile, while
the word 'Gentile' in various religions is defined as someone of a
different religion or a pagan. Because Jews are a race, the term 'Goy'
is clearly racist and hateful since it categorizes non-Jews as one
entity, not according nationality, race or religion. In other words,
even the Arabs who are true Semites are 'Goy' to Jews, and that's
extreme anti-Semitism. A case in point is rabbi Perin's statement that
"A million Arabs are not worth one Jewish fingernail".

To Hopefully Better Understand Some Jews

SDL documents crimes Jews committed against the Serbs during the recent
Yugoslav civil wars. Crime can never be justified, but why did Jews turn
on a people who risked their lives and saved many of them from Nazis in
WWII? Is it true that Jews who rise to positions of power become
tyrants? We have no answer so we cite some Jewish sources for you to
decide.

"Idiocy and imbecility are found comparatively more often among Jews
than among non-Jews . . . The Mongolian type of idiocy is also very
frequently observed among Jews . . . Among the Jews the proportion of
insane has been observed to be very large . . . Jews are more liable to
acute psychoses of early age than are non-Jews." (The Jewish
Encyclopedia, Vol. VI, (1904), p. 556, 603-04).

"The Jews are more subject to diseases of the nervous system than the
other races and peoples among which they dwell. Hysteria and
neurasthenia appear to be most frequent. Some physicians of large
experience among the Jews have even gone so far as to state that most of
them are neurasthenic and hysterical." (The Jewish Encyclopedia, Vol.
IX, (1905), p. 225).

Jews And Their Zionist Views

"The great ideal of Judaism is that the whole world shall be imbued with
Jewish teachings, and that in a Universal Brotherhood of nations - a
greater Judaism in fact - all the separate races and religions shall
disappear." - The Jewish World February 9, 1883

"We, the Jews, are a people - one people. When we sink, we become
revolutionary proletariat, the subordinate officers of a revoluionary
party; when we rise, there arises also our terrible power of the purse."
- Theodore Herzl The Jewish State, 1896

"The Jews in Russia, in their total mass, were responsible for the
Revolution." - Angelo S. Rappaport The Pioneers of the Russian
Revolution P. 250 Stanley, Paul and C. London, 1918

"We are living in a highly organized state of socialism. The state is
all; the individual is of importance only as he contributes to the
welfare of the state. His property is only his as the state does not
need it. He must hold his life and his possessions at the call of the
state." - Bernard M. Baruch The Knickerbocker Press Albany, N.Y. August
8, 1918

"There is much in the fact of Bolshevism itself, in the fact that so
many Jews are Bolshevists. The ideals of Bolshevism are consonant with
many of the highest ideals of Judaism." - Jewish Chronicle London, April
4, 1919

"The Bolshevist revolution in Russia was the work of Jewish brains, of
Jewish dissatisfaction, of Jewish planning, whose goal is to create a
new order in the world. What was performed in so excellent a way in
Russia, thanks to Jewish brains, and because of Jewish dissatisfation
and by Jewish planning, shall also, through the same Jewish mental and

Baruch goldstein was WIDELY condemned in Israel, and apologies were indeed
made.


of course Sharon is a hard line right winger, and a dangerous asshole to
boot. Know why he was elected? because of a Jewish population sick of
schoolbuses and malls exploding and killing innocents, a middle of the road
population that watched the peace process get scuttled by extremists, and an
Arab population that refused to vote to keep a butcher like Sharon out (
almost as if they wanted a hard-liner in charge, to justify radical actions
after the point)

Re: [CTRL] Deepening Rifts Between Jews and Palestinians Inside Israel

what stopped "Jewish business in Muslim majority villages was not the
killing of 13 Palestinians, but the many many terrorist acts, rock throwing
incidents, shootings, riots, and abandonment of the peace process, aimed at
the Jewish population by part of the Muslim population. I am not saying it

fear for their own safety.

That one million arabs not worth one jewish fingenail has a familiar
ring to it; think though revised to fit the occasion, this line came
from a book called The Root of Evil written by a man name Dixon who also
wrote Birth of a Nation.

So it wasn't even original?   Whoever that guy is he isn't even original
- makes me wonder all all the more about some of this alleged "neo nazi"
literature and whose logo should be engraved upon same.

Like the black bordered ad and the Wanted for Treason poster in Dallas?

[Fernando Sobral]

-Caveat Lector-

WHO CAN YOU REALLY COUNT ON TO TELL IT LIKE IT REALLY IS THEN AND NOW?

MER FlashBacks to September 1997:


TERRORISM   AND  ACCOUNTABILITY


"One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail."


Rabbi Perin - Eulogy for Baruch
Goldstein  in Hebron in 1994



MER Editorial - Washington - 9/27/97:
  The worst massacres in the recent history of the Middle East have not been 
perpetrated by Arabs, but rather by Israelis. This simple fact is often overlooked in 
the Western media. In 1982 thousands of Palestinian refugees were slaughtered in the 
refugee camps of Sabra and Shatilla -- this on top of the estimated 20,000+ Lebanese 
and Palestinian civilians killed during Israel's barbarous war on Lebanon.
 The responsible person was Ariel Sharon, now one of the senior leaders of the 
Government of Israel. The rise of Hezbollah was a direct result of Israel's brutal 
devastation of Lebanon, killing of tens of thousands of innocent civilians, attempt to 
install a puppet government in Beirut, and direct military occupation of the southern 
area of the country.
 No one was held responsible, no apologies have been made, no compensation has 
been paid. Just last year at Qana, Lebanon, Israel purposefully massacred over a 
hundred civilians even though they had specifically fled to a camp under U.N. 
protection. Shimon Peres, Israeli Prime Minister at the time, then repeatedly lied and 
covered up the atrocity until evidence (of which the Israelis were not aware) surfaced.
 No one was held responsible, no apologies have been made, no compensation has 
been paid. Israeli "death squads" have been operating in the occupied territories for 
years. Indeed, the brutal and unprecedented Israeli military occupation of large parts 
of historic Palestine is itself a form of organized State-sponsored terrorism.
 And just a few years ago, in 1994, Baruch Goldstein, in Israeli army uniform, 
massacred Arab worshipers at the Tomb of Abraham in occupied Hebron. No one was held 
responsible, no apologies have been made, no compensation has been paid and the 
meshugana Rabbis of Hebron remain free, guns in hand.
 And by the way, there was no Hamas, and their were no suicide bombers, in 
occupied Palestine until recent years after a generation of Israeli occupation and 
repression, torture and systematic terror.  MAB


THE ARABS REGIMES -- OFF TO GREET SHARON IN DOHA



MEANWHILE, SHARON MASTERMINDS ISRAELI EXPANSION PLANS

MER - Washington - 9/30/97:   Even more than Netanyahu, the hand of Ariel Sharon 
is firmly behind Israeli policies, most especially the settlement expansion policies. 
Yet even so -- cajoled and threatened by the United States -- the Arab client-regimes 
are heading to the fourth U.S.-Israel sponsored "economic summit" in a few weeks, this 
one in Doha.

This very important and very symbolic matter was discussed in the previous MER a few 
days ago. The concluding paragraph of the article read: "Meanwhile, adding insult to 
injury, none other than Ariel Sharon will be heading up Israel's delegation if Doha 
takes place. Sharon -- the war criminal of Sabra and Shatilla. Sharon -- one of 
Israel's greatest thugs and Palestinian killers. Sharon -- the only senior Israeli 
official who commandered a house in the Muslim quarter of Old Jerusalem on top of 
which he prominently flies the Israeli flag and a Menorah for all to see (all guarded 
24-hours daily by Israeli troops of course).
Sharon -- the Minister in charge of building still more Israeli settlements to 
permanently disinfranchise and ghettoize the Palestinians." The following additional 
information about Sharon, published in Hebrew in the Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz, has 
now come to our attention:


SHARON PLAN TO REINFORCE GREEN LINE APPROVED

  "A plan to establish a chain of 17 new settlements between Jerusalem and the 
southern Mount Hebron area just inside the Green Line has been approved by Interior 
Minister Eli Suissa and passed on to the planning units in his ministry.
  "The plan was initiated by National Infrastructure Minister Ariel Sharon. The new 
settlements are intended as the final stage of the plan formulated by Sharon in the 
1980s, when he served as housing minister, to ensure continuous Jewish settlement 
along the entire boundary line of the West Bank.
"Sharon's spokesman, Ra'anan Gissin, said the plan would 'protect the land from being 
taken over by Palestinians and Bedouin.' Gissin said Israel must 'seize the land and 
create facts on the ground' before the final status negotiations.
  "'It's a war,' Gissin stated. He said economic problems and a sense of insecurity 
caused by agricultural thefts in the area where the new settlements are planned had 
driven out many residents in recent years.
  "At present, he said, there are only about 5,000 residents there, and 26,000 dunams 
(6,500 acres) of state land had been abandoned. 'It is urgent to double the number of 
residents,' said Gi

Moderator's Note:
Just a correction on the use of Democracy by the author.  Technically,
our Constitutional system of government is a Republic, NOT a Democracy.Â
Be that as it may, the author makes a good point of how protest and
media coverage (freedom of assembly, freedom of the press, freedom of
speech, freedom to redress) have been supressed by those to whom we have
given up our power.

ONLINE JOURNAL™

Protests are out and we will decide what you can investigate
By Scott Morschhauser

August 31, 2001—The Bush administration has brought two concepts to the
forefront of the nation’s consciousness. One, you are no longer allowed
to protest, and two, they will tell you what you can and cannot
investigate. The examples of these two themes are currently being
exposed in the sub-news stories (the news stories that do not make the
sound-bites, but with a little digging are readily available in larger
newspapers or on the Internet).

Let’s start with protesting. It has become apparent that you are no
longer allowed to partake in this constitutionally protected form of
free speech. A few months ago, protesters in Florida were arrested for
holding 8 ½ by 11-inch signs with anti-Bush messages while those holding
the same size pro-Bush signs were perfectly within their rights.

I will be attending a protest rally in Washington DC on September 29 and
have already received word that nine foot walls will be constructed for
the event.

Protesting, although always an annoyance and hassle for law enforcement
agencies, is a right guaranteed Americans by the Constitution. A
generally complacent public may not see the danger in giving up this
right. Some may argue that this form of government strong-arming is for
“protection.” I’d have to agree. There is nothing more dangerous to a
non-elected government posing as a democracy than good old American
muckraking and outward protest. If you are a history buff, you can’t
help but notice the similarities to the rise of other fascist regimes.
Stifle the protesters, control the media, then control the military. The
protesters and media take on as important a role, if not more so, than
the military. The message is clear. You are no longer allowed to
protest.

Well, if we can’t protest, at least we can follow the news and learn
about corrupt actions taken by the Bush administration and the rest of
their political party. Then we can vote them out in four years, right?
Wrong. Without even going into the problems that have surfaced with
voting in the world’s “greatest democracy,” this scenario hinges on a
media that will investigate and report on the actions of our government.
But it has become apparent that certain stories will be investigated and
certain stories will not.

The example that I will use to prove my point will be the
massively-dead-horse-beaten story of Chandra Levy and the possible
relationship to Congressman Gary Condit. Currently, the nation just
can’t get enough of this story. The story is pursued relentlessly, even
though there are no suspects, not even Congressman Condit, because the
police have no evidence of foul play. I understand that the public likes
a sensational crime. I don’t condone it, but I understand. Yet, in this
case there is theoretically no crime. There is no corpus delicti as it
were.

But what if there had been a known crime? Can you imagine if Gary Condit
was an actual suspect? Obviously the American public would be ten times
more interested than they already are, right? Wrong again, because there
was a body of a young female aide found dead of unknown causes in a
congressman’s office. But the congressman was not Gary Condit or any
other Democrat. The congressman is Florida Republican Joe Scarborough,
and the unfortunate woman was 28-year-old Lori Klausutis.

Mrs. Klausutis was found dead on July 20 in Scarborough’s Fort Walton
Beach office. On August, Associate Medical Examiner Michael Berkland
announced that Mrs. Klausutis had a previously undetected heart
condition that caused her to collapse. Berkland said that Klausutis
collapsed, hit her head on the desk on the way down, suffered a blood
clot and died.

According to the Northwest Florida Daily News, official statements
originally said that there was no sign of trauma, yet Berkland is now
citing an “obvious injury to Mrs. Klausutis’ head.” The police will not
release the autopsy because Berkland has not yet completed and filed the
final copy. He claims that he has been too busy.

Now where’s the real story? Gary Condit? I don’t think so. This is a
terrifying case of hypocri

This guy also has loads of pornography files under this "parent

Do not know what you call this - but when you do a search under the old

stuff, etc.

On Web TV I cannot open these little boxes anyway - often I wonder the
person sending this stuff out, if he isn't selling a new software on the

Keep business going?  What is the real purpose of doing this other than
a form of censorship, criminal mischief or is somebody selling new virus
programs making big bucks?

A least this Snow White Stuff stopped - for me anyway.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please!  These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.

Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
