Hi all,
Here's another for the What the F**K files. Hmmm, let's get the US
military directly involved in the freakin' war in Colombia because training
the Colombians for anti-narcotics efforts, and spraying their food
crops...I mean, coca and poppy crops just wasn't/isn't enough, but in
Afghanistan, well, heck, attacking Afghanistan's poppy fields is a
nonmilitary function that should be left to others. I wonder if this means

MILITARY OPPOSES SPRAYING POPPIES

The military officials, including representatives of the U.S.  Central
Command, have argued in interagency meetings that attacking Afghanistan's
poppy fields is a nonmilitary function that should be left to others.

Proponents of the effort, in the White House and State Department, want the
Pentagon to send special aircraft to drop herbicide on Afghanistan's poppy
fields before the opium-producing plants are harvested in the next four to
six weeks.

This is asymmetrical warfare, and it would be a prudent force-protection
measure, said a U.S.  official close to the debate.

The money obtained from Afghanistan's poppy harvest will fuel the guerrilla
war that is expected to escalate against U.S.  and allied forces in the
coming months.

The money from the poppies also will bolster anti-U.S.  elements in the
Pakistani ISI intelligence service, the officials said.

If this opium is harvested and permitted to go to market, it will
re-empower the negative elements in Pakistan's security service and lead to
instability in Pakistan, the official said.  And it will fund a new round
of international terrorism.

A National Security Council spokesman had no comment, noting that the
subject is part of an ongoing internal debate.

Gen.  Tommy Franks, commander of U.S.  forces in Afghanistan, has rejected
the idea of using U.S.  military forces for poppy crop eradication,
according to a Pentagon official.

That's not our mission, an official quoted Gen.  Franks as saying.

Drug Enforcement Administration chief Asa Hutchinson told Congress on March
12 that the DEA has obtained multisource information linking al Qaeda and
its leader, Osama bin Laden, to heroin trafficking.

The very sanctuary previously enjoyed by bin Laden was based on the
existence of the Taliban's drug state, whose economy was exceptionally
dependent on opium, Mr.  Hutchinson said.

Afghanistan produced over 70 percent of the world supply of illicit opium in
2000, and U.S.  officials said the current crop is expected to be large.

A DEA intelligence report in September said that Afghanistan produced 74
metric tons of opium from 4,162 acres of poppy fields last year.

The opium produced was significantly less than in 2000, when 3,656 metric
tons of opium were produced from 64,510 hectares of land that year.

Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar, who was ousted during U.S.  military
operations in December, issued a decree in July 2000 banning poppy
cultivation in Afghanistan.  He ordered the militia to eradicate any poppy
fields under Taliban control.

The State Department, which is in charge of nonmilitary policies toward
Afghanistan, has been unable to purchase the special aircraft required to
spray herbicide on the poppies, the officials said.

One option under consideration is to purchase two Air Tractor aerial
spraying aircraft and send them to Afghanistan.  The plan called for using a
special defoliant designed to kill poppy and coca plants without injuring
other plants.

But the State Department was slow to take steps to arrange the aircraft
purchase, so the aircraft cannot be procured until August - well after the
poppy fields have been harvested and the material turned into opium and
heroin.

The DEA intelligence report said numerous laboratories are located in
Afghanistan and Pakistan and there are significant numbers of opium
dealers in the

Milosevic and the Impeachment of President Clinton

Lev Navrozov
Monday, March 18, 2002

[Editor's Note: This is the first part of a two-part article.]

The trial of Slobodan Milosevic is expected to last for at least two years. On Feb. 12,
2002, the first day of the trial, Carla Del Ponte, chief prosecutor of the 
International
Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, addressed the Tribunal. BBC News
immediately excerpted her address on the Internet, with this summary of it under her
photograph: Del Ponte said Milosevic was driven by quest for power. (1)

What a triumph for a three-year criminal investigation! A startling prosecutorial
discovery, indeed. Three years ago, Milosevic was being described by President
Clinton, his State Department and the Tribunal itself as the Hitler of today, and
Yugoslavia was attacked to save the Albanians of Kosovo from Hitler-like
extermination.

For three years the Tribunal, headed by its chief prosecutor, had been working on
the case of the Hitler of today, and here, on Feb. 12, 2002, she came up with the
epoch-making and bloodcurdling discovery that Milosevic was driven by quest for
power.

As everyone knows, innocent people such as Carla del Ponte and Bill Clinton are
never driven by quest for power, ambition or any other such vices of Hitler and
Milosevic.

True, some evil tongues may insinuate that Carla, a short time ago an obscure
nonentity, mentally at the level of a retarded 7-year-old (as Milosevic put it, 
without
naming her by name for obvious reasons), has been driven by the ambition to be a
world celebrity, to be a new global Solon, who has appeared as a female about 26
centuries after the male Solon of Athens – nay, to be the founder of new international
justice under which Hitler, Stalin and Mao would have been put on trial in The Hague
at the first sign of their crimes against humanity, such as the invasion of the
Netherlands.

But axiomatically, all of Carla's motives can be only virtuous. As for Bill Clinton, 
who
can doubt that he has been as all-virtuous as Carla?

Inversely, listen in horror to what she said about Milosevic in the final one-third of 
her
address, entitled on the Internet Quest for Power. (Keep this from children under
12, for Carla's revelations of something so heinous may traumatize them
psychologically.)

Thus we learn that a mediocre strategist, Milosevic did nothing but pursue his
ambition. (2)

Can you imagine Carla being mediocre and pursuing her ambition, or Bill Clinton
being mediocre and pursuing his? On the other hand, this is how she describes the
Hitler of today: Everything, your honors, everything, was an instrument in the service
of his quest for power. (3)

How could their honors listen to this without fainting? I hope there were no children
under 12 in the audience! But this was not all. One must not seek ideals underlying
the acts of the accused, she concluded. (4)

Carla! Have a heart! You cannot do that to us! No ideals! Not only is he the Hitler of
today, as everyone already knew three years ago, but he also has no ideals either!
Such an unspeakable villain must be sentenced by the Tribunal to death by hanging
at the very least!

First War Crimes, Then Mediocrity

Yet prepare for something even more heinous. While the search for power is what
motivated Slobodan Milosevic, he concealed that search behind ...

Some judiciary simpletons or laymen may suppose that he concealed his heinous
motivation behind his brilliant speeches; Hitler was a brilliant speaker. Oh, no! Only
innocent people, having ideals and unmotivated by power, ambition or vanity, such
as Carla or Bill Clinton, can be brilliant, original and talented, while Milosevic
concealed his vices behind the grandiloquent rhetoric and the hackneyed phrases
he used. (5)

You see? He is guilty of mediocrity – nay, a triteness, sterility, bad taste. Take any
phrase of Carla or Bill Clinton. Can it be hackneyed? Never, ever! It is always a gem
of intellectual brilliance, originality and profundity, to say nothing of ideals and 
other
virtues.

If Carla or anyone else at the Tribunal had had a sense of humor, they could have
been told Mark Twain's joke about someone first accused of having murdered his
parents and then of having taken to smoking.

In 1999, Milosevic was accused of having been the Hitler of today, and in 2002, after
nearly three years of building the case and collecting evidence, Carla accuses him of
being mediocre, pompous, trite, seeking power and having no ideals. Has he taken
to smoking, too?

Defending Milosevic

In his speech, Milosevic spoke as a person abducted by criminals who are trying to
prove that he is a criminal in order to justify their crimes, such as an attack on
Yugoslavia.

I will not quote his speech (apart from his remark I quoted above about the mental
level of Carla del Ponte), since he is an interested party and there are quite a few

Milosevic and the Impeachment of President Clinton, Part 2

Lev Navrozov
Friday, March 22, 2002

[Editor's note: This is the second part of a two-part article. Read Part 1.]

Why did President Clinton need a war on Yugoslavia? Here we come to the real
causes of this war.

Its first real cause was the safety of the NATO military.

In the 18th century China began to rule Tibet. In 1911, Tibet became independent
and even today, Chinese account for only about 20 percent of Tibet's population. Yet
Mao seized the country in the early 1950s and ruthlessly crushed its 1959 rebellion,
adding Tibetan victims to millions of uncounted and uncountable other victims.

But what NATO officer has ever suggested since 1959 – even for a fleeting instant,
under the influence of a good strong drink – bombing China until and unless its
troops leave Tibet?

On the other hand, since the bombing of Yugoslavia was safe in 1999, why not
recapture the thrill of the good old days when, for example, in 1900 the Chinese
Righteous Harmony Fighters with Bare Hands imagined themselves to be
invulnerable to bullets and fought with bare hands, without any firearms, against the
firepower of Westerners, Japanese and Russians.

To shoot those Righteous Harmony Fighters with Bare Hands was as safe and
hence as pleasurable as shooting wild fowl on an English estate. In 1999 tiny,
defenseless Yugoslavia played the role of 1900 China.

If Russia had supplied to Yugoslavia even its obsolete air defense technology of the
1980s, a dozen or so NATO bombers would have been downed in the first week, and
NATO would have followed the fate of the United States in the Vietnam War.

As it was, NATO could reduce Yugoslavia to dust and thus achieve a brilliant victory
without a single casualty and hence with full approval of the vast majority of the
NATO countries.

President Clinton's Real Goal

The second real cause of the attack on Yugoslavia was President Clinton's dire need
to switch the mainstream media off his impeachment for perjury and obstruction of
justice regarding his pathetic adultery, and off all the other skeletons in his closet,
such as Paula Jones, his Chinese connection, and Vincent Foster's death (as
described by Chris Ruddy in The Strange Death of Vincent Foster.)

The war did its job for President Clinton magnificently: It filled the television 
screens
and newspaper front pages to the exclusion of everything else, for the commercial
midstream media can devote their attention to only one obsession at a time.

After 78 days of bombing Yugoslavia, the impeachment and other dangers to
President Clinton were gone, since the commercial midstream media have no
memory.

The legal investigation of the president of the United States was replaced by the
bombing of Yugoslavia after the KLA's (Kosovo Liberation Army's) crude fabrication
of the Racak massacre and the trial of the Hitler of today, allegedly responsible
for that massacre and having allegedly intended to massacre all the Albanians of
Kosovo.

True, before the NATO attack, there were negotiations with Milosevic, but
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright insisted on the right of NATO forces to move
freely throughout all of Yugoslavia (a virtual occupation), apart from the
independence of Kosovo, the heartland of Serbian history.

These negotiations were Albright's ultimatum, which she counted on to be
unacceptable, thus ensuring for President Clinton a war, so necessary for him to stop
the impeachment and put all his skeletons safely back into his closet. (11)

State Department View of Yugoslavia Before 9/11

A major aspect of the disintegration of Yugoslavia in the 1990s was the war between
Moslems and Christians (Serbs). The KLA had been engaged in prototypical Islamic
terrorism and guerrilla war, aimed at the liberation of Kosovo.

In the 1980s, the Albanian Islamic-revolutionary militants had already been looking
forward to Greater Albania, including western Macedonia, southern Montenegro,
part of southern Serbia, Kosovo and Albania itself. (12) But in the 1990s, it was all 
a
national liberation movement to the U.S. State Department.

In 2001, the U.S. State Department even referred to the ubiquitous diabolical bin
Laden and al-Qaeda in the KLA as well. But before Sept. 11, 2001, the phrase
Islamic terrorism was virtually unknown in the United States, and President
Clinton's State Department perceived Yugoslavia as an outdated colonial empire, the
Serbs as the Europeans, Christians and hence colonialists, and the Moslems as
oppressed victims of colonialism, fighting for their liberation – hence the Kosovo
Liberation Army.

What about Milosevic? In 1996 he was regarded as the benign head of his
antiquated empire, presiding over its disintegration, while in 1999 he was perceived
as the Hitler of today, determined to annihilate the Albanians in Kosovo to prevent its
independence.

While the White House has repeatedly described former Enron chairman Kenneth
Lay as simply a supporter of George W. Bush, extensive correspondence between
the two men paints a far cozier picture of their relationship, according to copies of
letters obtained this afternoon (2/15) by The Smoking Gun.

The pages of correspondence, exchanged during the years Bush served as governor
of Texas, were released today in Austin by the state archives in response to
Freedom of Information requests filed by TSG and other news organizations.

The Bush-Lay material touches on both personal matters (birthday greetings and
Bush's knee surgery) and public concerns of Lay and Enron, such as energy
legislation and tort reform, and reflects the kind of jocular relationship that 
reportedly
saw the nickname-happy Bush call the Enron boss Kenny Boy. The Houston-based
energy firm, Bush's leading career political contributor, is now bankrupt and the
target of a multitude of criminal and congressional probes.

We've arranged the Bush-Lay letters into several batches and, where applicable,
have followed an original letter with the recipent's reply. TSG will upload the
correspondence as quickly as we can scan the documents. You'll find the first 15

[CTRL] A Beautiful MindGame

2002-03-26 Thread Andrew Hennessey

-Caveat Lector-

A Beautiful MindGameby andrew hennessey

I saw the film and analysed the book - of the life of professor nash, and
the bit that suddenly made real sense to me about his life were the bits
that were not in the film.

Now folks may or may not know that I have written an
icke-like book PLUS Telepathy called Monkeys of Eden,
which expounds the telepathic sabotage of the underling humans that the
reptilian race have forever trashed.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/scottishX-files/files/

but my stall is set out due to personal experience -
regarded as schizo after an alien abduction - and where I then developed
free energy theory after tesla
www.zeroparadoxuniversity.com - I literally had the Men In Black turn up to
attempt to erase it from my mind - and the governement Did get involved - as
you may see from chapter 5 of monkeys of eden.

However - in my opinion - this puts me in the best position to judge what
happened to Nash - quite simply He Was GOT.
At University - the brilliant human scholar with no telepathic
signature/operancy comes up with an Economic Theory that will change forever
the balance of economic dominance on this planet - then guess what - he runs
into the subtle manipulation of reality that his rational mind cannot
explain - aliens only he can see - the overlord of antartica - where do we
all hear this before ?
The sexual deviance bit of his life sounds like reptilian manipulation -
reptiles like nothing better than the back passage and access to the
kundalini.
So to my way of seeing it what happened to John Nash was that a Human -
non-telepathic genius altered the status quo of economics to make it more
efficient, more civilised, more capable of growth and stability - and he was
Got.

The Reptiles want Anarchy and Chaos - and at the heart of their academia is
the ancient reptile conspiracy that perpetuates human incapacity eg the free
energy, unified theory, unified robotics etc - all the suppressed solutions
are there to keep the monkeys on this planet, dying and under control.
see www.thecosmicseduction.com the conspiracy of science

Nash upset that balance by producing civilising theories, constructive
theories - and the Beings that may or may not hang out in antartica, or
under the earth - the same old negative forces that tried to silence my
intellect in its quest to solve free energy theory - Got Nash.

Yes you can see Beings that other people can and cannot see - these entities
may or may not behave rationally - there are no rules to it - and these
beings Do exist - and may have come to deploy an agenda - in nash's case -
they came to derail him and prevent him from making the stockmarket more
efficient and perhaps prevent him from solving the many other artificial
paradoxes that keep the Human Race chained up to the dark Ages.

Nash was done by the reptilian conspiracy - I'm certain.

Case file shows how church dealt with troublesome priests

By Peter Franceschina
Staff Writer

March 24, 2002

Clerics with the Archdiocese of Miami first documented allegations of sexual abuse
against Father Rocco D'Angelo in August 1966.

But he kept working as a priest for the next three decades.

A mother brought one of her sons to see a church monsignor and told him about a
disturbing incident in a Boynton Beach motel room where D'Angelo, then 43 and an
assistant pastor, kissed several boys he had invited to spend the night. Later in the
parish he made some advances on one of her sons, John Fitzpatrick, then the
chancellor of the diocese, wrote to Bishop Coleman Carroll. The boy corroborated
the story.

The monsignor had said the woman knew of other, similar stories. Fitzpatrick ended
the three-paragraph memo with a question: Your directives please?

From the documents the diocese turned over to Palm Beach County prosecutors,
there is no record whether anything was done. New allegations would surface
against D'Angelo the next year, when he was sent to St. Bernadette in Hollywood --
and still more in years to follow.

The dozens of church documents relating to D'Angelo offer a rare look into how the
Catholic Church handled abusive priests over most of the last 40 years -- sending
them to psychiatrists for rehabilitation and moving them to other parishes, while
tormented parents struggled to do what church authorities asked: keep quiet.

The documents also suggest why so many victims of sexual abuse are surfacing
now to confront the church around the country -- they're outraged at the church's
shuffling of suspected molesters from parish to parish. Some of D'Angelo's victims
filed suit years after the alleged abuse, only after discovering he was still active 
in the
church ministry.

A nationwide crisis in the Catholic Church erupted this year over revelations that
church officials in Boston transferred the Rev. John J. Geoghan from post to post,
despite their knowledge of his pedophilia. Its reverberations, spreading to Florida,
caused Anthony J. O'Connell to admit to abusing a young seminarian years ago and
to resign as bishop of the Diocese of Palm Beach. Bishop Robert N. Lynch, head of
the Diocese of St. Petersburg, who was in charge of the Palm Beach diocese for six
months in 1998, has denied allegations of sexual misconduct brought by a former
aide.

A spokeswoman for the Archdiocese of Miami said that, under current guidelines,
church officials would remove a priest who abuses children.

D'Angelo's case would be handled much differently today, says spokewoman Mary
Ross Agosta. It would be dealt with swiftly and effectively, she says.

The closely held records in D'Angelo's case became public after prosecutors
subpoenaed them in a 1995 investigation. The authorities ultimately decided
D'Angelo couldn't be charged with a crime 30 years after the fact. The investigative
file contains D'Angelo's personnel records and church letters from dioceses in Miami,
which used to oversee the Palm Beach County area, and St. Petersburg.

The paper trail shows church officials were concerned about appeasing parents,
hoping they would stay quiet. The records show that top church decision-makers
went to lengths to keep D'Angelo in the priesthood, shipping him off from South
Florida to St. Petersburg. For years he was in a sort of purgatory, a priest dumped on
another diocese he couldn't call his home.

All the while he was a liability, one that blew up in the mid-1990s in a series of
lawsuits on both of Florida's coasts. D'Angelo retired as a Tampa parish priest only
after one long-ago victim decided he finally wanted something done.

I want him to pay for what he did to me. I want him to be upset and worried and
nervous and scared like I was, said the 37-year-old man, as quoted by a church
worker in a March 1993 memo. I want him to hurt and really feel the results of his
actions.

Attorneys around the country who have filed lawsuits against the church for past
abuses say the way the church handled D'Angelo is typical of how the institution has
reacted to other accusations of priestly misconduct. D'Angelo couldn't be located for
comment. His last known address was in Tampa.

There are certain similarities -- the secrecy, the silence, the coverups, says David
Slader, an attorney in Portland, Ore., who has won more than $10 million in abuse
cases against priests.

I think it is a deeply held practice in the Catholic Church to keep the clergy secret.
What happens in the clergy is what is happening in a private club, and you don't let
the riff-raff know about it. If you let them know about your business, you lose your
power.

Sheldon Stevens, a Merritt Island attorney who handled several suits against
D'Angelo and has represented about 50 people who say priests abused

[CTRL] FLorida Black Water Phenomenon: What's up with THIS?

Researchers investigate 'black water' phenomenon 
Fishermen first noticed the water in January when spotting pilots went up
to see how the kingfish season might play out. 

Wednesday, March 20, 2002

By CATHY ZOLLO


MARATHON — Researchers from Mote Marine Laboratory took samples Tuesday
of what may be the black water phenomenon reported by Southwest Florida
fishermen. 

Scientists speculate that the water held together when it was in deeper
areas of Florida Bay but began breaking up and dissipating as it reached
the shallows off the Keys. 

Samples researchers took Tuesday were in water they said was unusually
dark. 

Robin Smith, left, a biology graduate student, and Susie Arnold, an
intern with Mote Marine Laboratory in Summerlin Key, take a sample of
dark water Tuesday in Florida Bay that was reported by commercial
fishermen. Mote and Florida Marine Research Institute in St. Petersburg
will test the sample to find out what is causing the darker-than-normal
water. Romain Blanquart/Staff

Goodness gracious, said Erich Bartels, a biologist with Mote,
seven feet of water and you can't see the bottom. 

That was in water that is usually postcard turquoise with clear water in
the shallow parts. This was mostly blackish green and pea green at
smaller depths. 

Fishermen who'd watched the mass of water hold together and move south
from off Marco Island toward the Keys said it looked diluted to about 10
percent its original strength. At one point, fish spotter pilots
estimated the black water covered at least 40 square miles in Florida
Bay. 

Scientists, environmentalists and commercial fishermen — groups that are
often at odds with each other — agree the phenomenon and its aftereffects
deserve aggressive study. Bartels took the samples in Walters Key Basin
near the southern end of the Keys on the Gulf of Mexico side and within a
mile of shore. 

Mote was able to collect the samples because it is funded by the state to
test for red tide in waters off the Keys every four weeks, said Erich
Mueller, director of Mote's Center for Tropical Research in Summerlin
Key. The lab piggybacked the research trip onto a planned trip for the
red tide algae. Bartels kept samples of the black water for testing by
Mote and sent some overnight to the Florida Marine Research Institute in
St. Petersburg for other testing. 

He said researchers will look at a number of factors while seeking
solutions to the black water mystery, including the amount of dissolved
organic material in the water and what organisms populate it. 

Scientists should have some results in coming weeks. 

Field testing showed the diluted black water had normal salinity, meaning
it probably didn't come from a freshwater intrusion into the gulf, and
normal amounts of oxygen. Depleted oxygen is one symptom of an algae
bloom. 

Fishermen first noticed the water in January when spotting pilots went up
to see how the kingfish season might play out. 

What they found was miles and miles of ink black water and no fish. They
said that since that time their traditionally rich fishing grounds have
been barren of the game fish usually there. 

They think the water might have herded mobile marine life south of the
Keys as it tried to get away from the water. They worry about what it did
to corals, plants and slow-moving sea creatures that didn't escape. 


Fishermen reported that fish venturing into the water acted strangely,
jumping and running as if they wanted to get out. 

Aside from abundant fishing grounds, the Keys are home to the Florida
Keys National Marine Sanctuary. The 2,800-square-mile preserve is a
breeding ground for large numbers of sea creatures and contains the
nation's only barrier reef. 

Billy Causey, superintendent of the Sanctuary, said the possible
aftereffects of the black water on fish and coral reefs in the sanctuary
will bear watching. 

Some scientists have speculated that the water was some kind of algae
bloom, but Bartels, who was among the first scientists to see samples of
the water, said a microscopic look at that early sample showed it wasn't.
He couldn't rule out bacteria or any other kind of event that could've
triggered the black water.

The new empire loyalists

Former leftists turned US military cheerleaders are helping snuff out its traditions of
dissent

Tariq Ali
Saturday March 16, 2002
The Guardian

Exactly one year before the hijackers hit the Pentagon, Chalmers Johnson, a
distinguished American academic, staunch supporter of the US during the wars in
Korea and Vietnam, and one-time senior analyst for the CIA, tried to alert his fellow-
citizens to the dangers that lay ahead. He offered a trenchant critique of his 
country's
post-cold war imperial policies: Blowback, he prophesied, is shorthand for saying
that a nation reaps what it sows, even if it does not fully know or understand what it
has sown.

Given its wealth and power, the United States will be a prime recipient in the
foreseeable future of all of the more expectable forms of blowback, particularly
terrorist attacks against Americans in and out of the armed forces anywhere on
earth, including within the United States.

But whereas Johnson drew on his past, as a senior state-intellectual within the heart
of the American establishment, to warn us of the dangers inherent in the imperial
pursuit of economic and military domination, former critics of imperialism found
themselves trapped by the debris of September 11. Many have now become its most
vociferous loyalists. I am not, in this instance, referring to the belligerati - Salman
Rushdie, Martin Amis and friends - ever-present in the liberal press on both sides of
the Atlantic. They might well shift again. Rushdie's decision to pose for the cover of 
a
French magazine draped in the stars and stripes could be a temporary aberration.
His new-found love for the empire might even turn out to be as short-lived as his
conversion to Islam.

What concerns me more is another group: men and women who were once intensely
involved in leftwing activities. It has been a short march for some of them: from the
outer fringes of radical politics to the antechambers of the state department. Like
many converts, they display an aggressive self-confidence. Having honed their
polemical and ideological skills within the left, they now deploy them against their 
old
friends. This is why they have become the useful idiots of the empire. They will be
used and dumped. A few, no doubt, hope to travel further and occupy the space
vacated by Chalmers Johnson, but they should be warned: there is already a very
long queue.

Others still dream of becoming the Somali, Pakistani, Iraqi or Iranian equivalents of
the Afghan puppet, Hamid Karzai. They, too, might be disappointed. Only tried and
tested agents can be put in power. Most one-time Marxists or Maoists do not yet
pass muster. To do so they have to rewrite their entire past and admit they were
wrong in ever backing the old enemies of the empire - in Cuba, Vietnam, Angola,
Afghanistan or the Arab East. They have, in other words, to pass the David Horowitz
test. Horowitz, the son of communists and biographer of the late Isaac Deutscher,
underwent the most amazing self-cleansing in post-1970s America. Today he is a
leading polemicist of the right, constantly denouncing liberals as a bridge to the more
sinister figures of the left.

Compared to him, former Trotskyists Christopher Hitchens and Kanaan Makiya must
still appear as marginal and slightly frivolous figures. They would certainly fail the
Horowitz test, but if the stakes are raised and Baghdad is bombed yet again, this
time as a prelude to a land invasion, how will our musketeers react? Makiya, recently
outed in this paper as Iraq's most eminent dissident thinker, declared that:
September 11 set a whole new standard... if you're in the terrorism business you're
going to start thinking big, and you're going to need allies. And if you need allies in
the terrorism business, you're going to ask Iraq.

Makiya's capacity to spin extraordinary spirals of assertion, one above another,
based on no empirical facts and without any sense of proportion, becomes - through
sheer giddiness of fantastical levitation - completely absurd. Not a single US
intelligence agency has managed to prove any Iraqi link with September 11. For that
reason, in order to justify a war, they have moved on to other issues, such as
possession of dangerous weapons. Not even Saddam's old foes in the Arab world
believe this nonsense.

Hitchens reacted more thoughtfully at first to the New York and Washington attacks.
He insisted that the analytical moment had to be indefinitely postponed, but none
the less linked the hits to past policies of the US and criticised George Bush for
confusing an act of terrorism with an act of war. He soon moved on to denounce
those who made similar, but much sharper criticisms, and began to talk of the
supposed fascist sympathies of the soft left - Noam Chomsky, Harold Pinter, Gore
Vidal, Susan Sontag, Edward Said et al. In recent television appearances he has

How to fight and lose the moral high ground

Salman Rushdie on peaceniks and belligerati

Salman Rushdie
Saturday March 23, 2002
The Guardian

I woke up the other day to find myself, along with Christopher Hitchens and Martin
Amis, transformed by the British liberal media into a member of the belligerati, a
term coined, to describe those who have supported the US campaign in Afghanistan,
by the ex-revolutionary Tariq Ali, an enthusiastic advocate of the blowback or
America deserved it analysis of the 9/11 atrocities.

This dime-store jeer was immediately pronounced brilliant by a second leftist
journalist, while a third described my pleasure at the fall of the Taliban as a
premature celebration of victory.

As John Lloyd wrote in the New Statesman recently, Much of the intellectual left in
Europe cleaves to a view of America as the largest danger in the modern world. But
in Afghanistan the Taliban, perhaps the cruellest regime on earth, had permitted the
country to be hijacked by a parasitic terror organisation dedicated to the overthrow of
western civilisation.

The cleansing of those stables by the United States deserves a far better press than
it is getting. Sadly, cheap slogans and ad hominem sneers have long passed for
reasoned argument in the British papers. This doesn't much matter, except in so far
as it is part of a wider portrayal of the United States as a vengeful nation bent on 
war
and hot for foreign blood.

It does matter to deconstruct that caricature, because it's important for the world
outside the United States to understand with what sober gravity Americans, young
and old, liberal and conservative, have been thinking and feeling their way through
personal tragedy and global crisis.

In recent weeks I've been to to four American universities and also to Washington
DC, where I spoke to large groups of both Democrat and Republican senators and
senatorial staff, so I've been hearing how the argument is going in intellectual 
circles
as well as political ones.

And yes, there is a certain amount of gung-ho let's-kick-us-some-Arab-butt war-fever
around, particularly, but not only, in the Republican camp. When I warned the
senators I'd been invited to address that, should the US go after Saddam Hussein, it
might very well do so alone, more than one of the great men allowed as how that
would be just fine.

Equally noticeable, though, was the high degree of anxiety - in the corridors of power
in DC as well as in the lecture rooms of Harvard, Yale, Brown and Syracuse - about
the many pitfalls in the road ahead. Critiques of administration policy in the war
against terror grow stronger and more vociferous every day.

This is the paradox at the heart of the debate: how can you present yourselves as
defending the great values of freedom and justice, if that defence promotes
unfreedom and injustice?

The real belligerati, the hawks among America's makers of foreign policy, have
made such mistakes before - by supporting the Shah's tyranny in Iran, a policy which
led eventually to Khomeini's revolution; by supporting the coup against President
Allende in Chile, a decision which made possible the nightmare of Pinochet; and,
more recently, by tilting towards the Islamist fundamentalists in Algeria.

They are in danger of doing it again. If Saddam and his cronies are to be unseated,
it's important to find a successor regime that doesn't require decades of propping up.
This is the point the Saudis were making when they expressed support for an Iraqi-
led revolution against Saddam. The US gets the point; unfortunately, at present, the
CIA-dominated thinking appears to be that a military strongman is needed.

Thus the main opposition group, the Iraqi National Congress led by Ahmed Chalabi,
is treated with scorn - an ineffectual showboat, as one recent American report put it
- while the US starts cosying up to a string of exiled ex-generals, many with 
attractive
backgrounds in chemical warfare. This is the warlord option, and it alarms many of
us, even if the warlords are at present somewhat less than fearsome, running small
restaurants in Virginia or living in severely reduced circumstances in Wuppertal,
Germany.

But shouldn't a paid-up belligerato be pleased by America's tough-guy stance? Why
be squeamish about making use of old soldiers who may have been responsible for
using poison gas on the Kurds? Such questions reveal the absurdity of the slur. I
can't speak for the others, but my own view is pretty straightforward. If America gets
into bed with scumbags, it loses the moral high ground, and once that ground is lost,
the argument is lost with it.

We don't yet know if the Chalabi group commands sufficient support within Iraq, but
such anecdotal information as there is suggests Chalabi is at least as likely to be
viable as any of the generals. A month ago, Chalabi told the Council on Foreign
Relations that the INC

I thought about that. Massive quantities of sulfur dioxide boiling
up and mixing with water; S02+H20=H2S03 or thereabouts. The color
would be right, and its effects on marine life would be consistent with
accounts, but its presence would be obvious. That, and a dilute
slurry of sulfuric acid wouldn't effect cloud formations.

Whatever it is could still be volcanic, but right now it doesn't look
that way. I can't think of any naturally occurring combination of
chemicals or events which could account for the entire range of phenomena
in this instance.

Truck Carrying Christian Materials Is Driven Into Islamic Mosque Before Prayers

The Associated Press

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - A man who said he was motivated by hatred of Muslims
drove a truck into a mosque just 30 minutes before evening prayers, police said
Tuesday.

No one was injured Monday in the Islamic Center of Tallahassee, which is located at
Florida State University.

The driver, Charles Franklin, 41, walked away and was arrested later at a campus
bar on charges of burglary and criminal mischief, police said.

Franklin told officers he could have blown up the mosque if he had put propane tanks
on the front of his truck, and that he tried to join the military in order to kill 
Muslims
but was turned down, according to a police news release.

Authorities said a Bible wrapped in blue cloth was on the front seat of Franklin's
truck.

Police spokesman Scott Hunt said police believe it was an isolated case of one
individual venting personal frustrations.

Why Ron Paul Voted For the Amnesty Bill
By Sierra Times
Published 03. 25. 02 at 21:05 Sierra Time

After last weeks vote of HR 1885 that granted amnesty to immigration that now
occupy U.S. Soil, Ron Paul's (R-TX) vote left many of our readers scrathing their
heads. They weren't alone. So we asked. According to Paul's office, there may have
been some bad 'spin' on the details about the bill itself. We'll let you be the judge 
as
you read. Your feedback is strongly encouraged. - Sierra Times



From The Office of Ron Paul: Regarding the extension of section 245(i) of the
Immigration and Nationality Act, contained in the Enhanced Border Security and Visa
Entry Reform Act (HR 1885).

Rest assured, I am against general amnesty for illegal aliens. Many have suggested
that section 244(i) grants amnesty to illegal aliens, but this is not true. In fact, 
it only
applies to that group of people who meet the following criteria: they are eleligilble 
for
permanent residency status have lived in this country since Dec. 2000 their
application is based on a family relationship that existed prior to Aug. 15, 2001 or on
an application for labor certification that was processed before Aug. 15, 2001.

This bill will also allow those who are waiting in line for their application to be
processed to remain in this country, provided they have a sponsor. In addition, they
will be required to pay a penalty of $1000 before they can reapply.

Other provisions of HR 1885 will go a long way toward addressing your concerns
regarding border control and security. For example this bill provides for at least 200
additional INS inspectors. and at least 200 additional investigators. It requires the
establishment of a government- wide, electronic data-sharing system on persons
with terrorist ties, that federal officials could use to determine whether to grant 
visa
application or permit an individual to enter the U.S. In addition, the Justice Dept. 
will
be required to establish a system to electronically track all foreign visa students in
the United States. Finally, it would prohibit the issuance of temporary visas to 
citizens
of nations considered to be state sponsors of terrorism, unless it has been
determined that the alien does not pose a threat to the safety of American or U.S.
national security.

What has not been discussed in the current debate regarding immigration reform is
that, rather than luring immigrants to a land of opportunity, our present welfare 
states
draws those from other jurisdictions who come for the security guaranteed by
government forced transfer payments. Genuine immigration reform can only result
from elimination of the current welfare state and a renewed embracement of the
constitutional principles under which transfer payments were the exception rather
than the rule. Such a renewal will not only attract the industrious, but will deter 
those
migrants merely looking for a free ride on the backs of taxpayers.

It is an outrage for our government to invite people over here for the express purpose
of providing them with taxpayer- funded assistance. Rest assured, I believe that
immigrants should not receive any form of welfare or public assistance, and this is
why I am cosponsoring HR 190, which would revoke the automatic citizenship, and
thus right to welfare benefits, currently granted to the children of illegal 
immigrants.

The revelations of history, the records of the KGB, and the recent
release of the NSA deciphered cables to and from Moscow by the Venona
Project have vindicated Senator Joseph McCarthy. He was destroyed by the
Marxist owned and controlled news media and Hollywood.

The branding of anyone who dared to expose communists and their goal of
the ultimate destruction of the United States of America as
McCarthyites insured the increased infiltration and rapid takeover of
our government by Marxist and communists over the intervening years.

William Cooper - Written Long Before he Twin Towers but
s... None Dare Call them Zionists.
===+

Have been looking for stuff on this Bob Lazar and came upon this old
document re Bill Cooper but here Cooper outlines the entire plan for
demolition of America and bombing of cities and murder of children for a
goal to be accomplished.   Littleton, when wonder how to kids got into
this Bible stuff?   One the grandsom of Leon Yassenoff, a Russian Jew
with Mafia connections to say the least form Columbus, Ohio with his tax
free foundation and the other kid, well military  and this mind control
crap.

I was looking on stuff from this Lazar for I believe this man is a
traitor - and further his connections with this UFO crap he is virually
the enemy within...on TV this Sci Fi Channel there sat this big
mouth and with another man showing what they said were top secret plans
of planes, etc.  I believe Gordon Novel had demanded they take his name
off Mothership where Lazar was capitalizing or try to capitalize on
same.

Bill Cooper tells of Lazar being part of the set up and this was written
BEFORE the demolition of the Twin Towers but about the time of Ruby
Ridge, Waco, and of course the first bombing of the tower.

So I am going to reprint this for you - it was previously sent by Nicky
or Nicola when she was on list.

What this stupid Lazar does not seem to know is by the time any plane is
off the drawing board and airbourne - the planes are virtually
obsoleteand all this stupid spying around Area 51 - UFO crap, this
is how the enemy gets information and often UFO reports have cost the
lives of American soldiers for let us say they know when the ships, by
sea and by air, leave the USA.these people are god damned traitors
and this Lazar on TV was the - well little fat mouthed chubby cheeked
bastard with his buddy - selliong Testor Plane models of ships supposed
to be secret.   Oh and they think they are so brilliant.   No wonder
Gordon Novel told
them to get his name off their site.

No wonder Bill Cooper was murdered.he had the whole picture and I
believe he was onto the bible calendar code as well -

Remember Bill Cooper wrote all this prior to 911..and notice
everyone will be blamed for bombings, and acts of terror - the miltias,
Christians, Muslims - but hey what about those Israelis with the box
cutters and the 7 billion dollars to Larry Silverstein who managed to
profit from an investment entered into 3 weeks prior to the Towers
demise?

The Konformist is honored to present this latest offering William
Cooper. Mr. Cooper is a controversial fellow in the conspiracy, field,
and I'm sure even he admits that much of the controversy is well
deserved. It is the price one pays for sticking your neck out. But love
him or hate him, there is no getting around the fact that Mr. Cooper
remains a popular fellow, and the reasons behind his popularity are
obvious: he isn't afraid to present the most absurd sounding stories
(the vast majority of which are shockingly true), and he is willing to
make a fool of himself by presenting speculation and information too
outlandish by even most unorthodox views to touch. For this, he has
earned a special chapter in Susan Kossey's book Kooks. He's also
earned a Konformist Required Reading label for his magnum opus Behold

So, set your prejudices aside, sit back, and enjoy the following, and
ask yourself if, besides all the hype, Bill Cooper has hit the bullseye

definitely aiming at the right target.

Ford and the Agency

By Jamey Hecht
Ford: A shallow place in a river, where a man or beast may cross by wading.
Oxford English Dictionary
Gerald Ford's reputation has lately come under the knife for a major
facelift. This April in Boston, Former President Ford (R-MI) received the
John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award from the folks at the Kennedy
Library. At this same moment, Ford's colleague Henry Kissinger has been
accused of war crimes in a detailed and devastating two-article expose,
published earlier this Spring by the venerable Harper's Magazine.
According to the Associated Press (30 April, 2001), Ford was given the
Courage Award for taking the political risk of pardoning former President
Nixon after Watergate. The award is given annually to an elected official who
followed his conscience despite the political cost. Ford, who pardoned Nixon
to help the country recover from 'our long national nightmare,' said he is
glad to be recognized for making the decision, which some say cost him the
1976 presidential election.
Rather like a real-life Mr. Magoo, Ford has a well-established, serial
tendency to get raised up to sublime heights by somebody else's official
fiat. This Kennedy award is only the most recent episode (in 1999, he was
awarded the Congressional Medal of Freedom). Ford was, of course, our only
unelected President, as well as the first Eagle Scout ---winner there of no
fewer than 26 merit badges--- to achieve the nation's highest Office. Long
before his appointment, Ford had been lifted to national visibility by
President Johnson, who recruited him onto the Warren Commission. In a recent
History Channel special, Ford recalled that when Johnson asked for his
service, he resisted, claiming to be too busy with Committee work; I have no
time! until Johnson pressured him further.
No such thing happened, as you'll hear if you click the link below. But
smiling through a self-flattering reminiscence (Ford's fantasy, I think, of
his youth as a hardworking Congressman with his own priorities who briefly
resisted the legendary pressure of LBJ) is no big deception, just Ford's
passive participation in his own current national mythmaking effort. That
effort, however, is no mere flattery of the old man. In print, television and
radio, our political culture sustains an expanding gas-cloud of doctrinally
correct, historically baseless praise of Gerald Ford. If there are people who
believe it, I'd attribute their belief to an accurate (if unconscious)
recognition of Ford's role as the grand credibility-launderer of presidential
politics these last forty years. As the only surviving member of the Warren
Commission (which legitimated LBJ's presidency), as a former president
(legitimated by Nixon's appointment), as the man who pardoned Nixon
(legitimating our great Republic by announcing that our long national
nightmare is over), Ford holds the whole story together. As to his actual
gifts, he may be some odd kind of crypto-genius, but the appearances don't
inspire confidence, and they never did. Any stone can hold a giant cathedral
in place, if somebody places it in the right spot.
Partly because Presidents Reagan, Bush, and Bush Jr. staffed their
administrations with officials from the Nixon and Ford administrations (e.g.,
Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, who has resumed his old Ford cabinet post
a full 25 years later under George W. Bush), the long national nightmare of
legitimation crisis extends all the way into the present. The nightmare is a
good deal longer than Ford would admit. It begins on 25 November 1963, when
LBJ calls Ford and tells him about the Presidential Commission he's forming.
Johnson wants somebody on [House] Appropriations [Committee] who knows CIA
over in your shop, because I'm covering the [Senate] Arms Services
[Committee] angle with [Senator] Russel.
You know very well I would be honored to do it, and I'll do the very best I
can, Sir.
The mandate of this Commission was to establish that the accused assassin was
indeed the guilty and sole perpetrator of President Kennedy's murder. We have
the Oval Office telephone recordings of LBJ assembling the W. C., man by man
(they can be heard at JFKLancer.com, or at Challenge of Democracy:
http://www.hpol.org/lbj/warren/). Some (Senator Russel, and more importantly
Chief Justice Earl Warren) put up resistance, reluctant to participate in a
Commission whose purpose was best expressed in the 25 November 1963 memo of
then Deputy Attourney General Nicholas Katzenbach:
The public must be satisfied that Oswald was the assassin; that he did not
have confederates who are still at large; and that the evidence was such that
he would have been convicted at trial... Speculation about Oswald's
motivation ought to be cut offâ?|We need something to head off public
speculation or Congressional hearings of the wrong sort.

So  Edward and Andrew is this the heating up of the water someway for
the weather control program this el nino and la nina?

Remembr the little sea animals used these jet streams in the waters to
travel.when the lemmings disappear in the water they do not drowned
- for they enter into these currents and are taken far away.   Even sea
turtles use them.

But suddenly they have found a lot of these sea animals who travel no
doubt around the world in these streams dead or dying

Think they are heating it upand now I still remember the project
where Russians wanated to put black soot on the snow to do with this
weather program.black would keep light out of the seas, right and
then would the fish die and plant life etc. be effected.

[CTRL] Carl Sagan's Baloney Detection Kit

2002-03-26 Thread thew
Title: Carl Sagan's Baloney Detection Kit 



http://www.xenu.net/archive/baloney_detection.html

Based on the book The Demon Haunted World: Science as a candle in the dark published by Headline 1996. 


The following are suggested as tools for testing arguments and detecting fallacious or fraudulent arguments: 



* Wherever possible there must be independent confirmation of the facts
* Encourage substantive debate on the evidence by knowledgeable proponents of all points of view.
* Arguments from authority carry little weight (in science there are no authorities).
* Spin more than one hypothesis - don't simply run with the first idea that caught your fancy.
* Try not to get overly attached to a hypothesis just because it's yours.
* Quantify, wherever possible.
* If there is a chain of argument every link in the chain must work.
* Occam's razor - if there are two hypothesis that explain the data equally well choose the simpler.
* Ask whether the hypothesis can, at least in principle, be falsified (shown to be false by some unambiguous test). In other words, it is testable? Can others duplicate the experiment and get the same result?


Additional issues are 

* Conduct control experiments - especially double blind experiments where the person taking measurements is not aware of the test and control subjects.
* Check for confounding factors - separate the variables.


Common fallacies of logic and rhetoric 

* Ad hominem - attacking the arguer and not the argument.
* Argument from authority.
* Argument from adverse consequences (putting pressure on the decision maker by pointing out dire consequences of an unfavorable decision).
* Appeal to ignorance (absence of evidence is not evidence of absence).
* Special pleading (typically referring to god's will).
* Begging the question (assuming an answer in the way the question is phrased).
* Observational selection (counting the hits and forgetting the misses).
* Statistics of small numbers (such as drawing conclusions from inadequate sample sizes).
* Misunderstanding the nature of statistics (President Eisenhower expressing astonishment and alarm on discovering that fully half of all Americans have below average intelligence!)
* Inconsistency (e.g. military expenditures based on worst case scenarios but scientific projections on environmental dangers thriftily ignored because they are not proved).
* Non sequitur - it does not follow - the logic falls down.
* Post hoc, ergo propter hoc - it happened after so it was caused by - confusion of cause and effect.
* Meaningless question (what happens when an irresistible force meets an immovable object?).
* Excluded middle - considering only the two extremes in a range of possibilities (making the other side look worse than it really is).
* Short-term v. long-term - a subset of excluded middle (why pursue fundamental science when we have so huge a budget deficit?).
* Slippery slope - a subset of excluded middle - unwarranted extrapolation of the effects (give an inch and they will take a mile).
* Confusion of correlation and causation.
* Straw man - caricaturing (or stereotyping) a position to make it easier to attack..
* Suppressed evidence or half-truths.
* Weasel words - for example, use of euphemisms for war such as police action to get around limitations on Presidential powers. An important art of politicians is to find new names for institutions which under old names have become odious to the public

Army Secretary White - 13 Calls to Enron Before Dumping Stock
(source unknown)

Last October, Army Secretary Thomas E. White, a former Enron Corp. executive,
met or phoned former colleagues at the energy company as many as 13 times
prior to his decision to sell more than 200,000 Enron shares at the end of
that month, according to information he has provided a House committee. A
letter hand-delivered Friday to the office of Rep. Henry A. Waxman
(D-Calif.), the ranking member on the House Government Reform Committee,
lists 44 calls White made from his home to former Enron colleagues since
taking office last May. They do not include calls he may have received on
that phone. These calls are in addition to 29 calls to and meetings with
Enron colleagues that White disclosed in January. Those calls, he specified
in the letter Friday, were made or received in his Pentagon office. The
October telephone calls were made during a crucial period at Enron. That was
the month in which accounting errors and financial misstatements first came
into view, prompting a Securities and Exchange Commission investigation.
Those disclosures undermined investor confidence and ultimately forced the
company to file for bankruptcy, On Oct. 1, Enron shares closed at $29.15
each. On Oct. 24, White sold 121,663 shares at $16.10 and $16.15 a share. On
Oct. 30, he sold 86,709 shares at $12.86 each. He sold off his directly held
Enron stock from June to October for $12.1 million. By the end of November,
an Enron share was worth 26 cents.

Dealing With The F-Word - A Book Review by Stephen Gowans - March 25, 2002
David McGowan, Understanding the F-Word: American Fascism and the Politics of
Illusion, (Writers Club Press, 2001) 264 pages, $19.95. Available at
Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, Amazon.co.uk and Booksamillion.com.

When the Spanish fascist General Franco, enlisting the aid of Hitler and
Mussolini, initiated a civil war that would eventually see the Republican
government of Spain fall, the United States not only stood by, it prohibited
American citizens from helping the Republican cause. Why would an apparently
democratic, presumably antifascist country, prevent its citizens from
fighting fascism and restoring democracy? 

Flush with success in Spain, European fascism struck again. Mussolini bombed
desperately poor Ethiopia. And not to be outdone (by far), Nazi Germany
invaded more than a dozen European countries, establishing a front with the
Soviet Union, whose destruction the Nazis desperately sought. Washington
still did nothing. In June 1941, the Nazis invaded the Soviet Union,
launching a campaign that would eventually cost the Soviets eight to 12
million men and usher 16 million Soviet civilians into an early grave. And
still, the United States did nothing. Instead, as the Nazis pushed into the
Soviet Union, Washington watched, and US businesses, among them, the Wall
Street powerhouse Brown Brothers/Harriman, profited. The firm, two of whose
principals were Prescott Bush and Herbert Walker, great-grandfather and
grandfather of President George W. Bush, eventually had its assets seized
under the Trading with the Enemy Act, when Washington finally got around to
deciding Nazi Germany was an enemy (on paper, anyway.)

[CTRL] Fwd: [GATA] The manipulation is in the open now, and it's faltering

2002-03-26 Thread RoadsEnd



---BeginMessage---

2:27a ET Tuesday, March 26, 2002

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Monday's first big news was the Financial Times story
about the latest minutes released by the Federal
Reserve's Federal Open Market Committee, in which
the Fed is seen contemplating openly buying
equities to keep the stock market bubble inflated
in case interest rate cuts fail to do so. Gold was
prominently mentioned in the story. So now
government's manipulation of supposedly free
markets is again a matter of public record in FOMC
minutes. You may remember the previous incident:
the Fed's general counsel's remark to the FOMC,
inadvertently escaping the censor's knife,
acknowledging gold swaps by the Exchange
Stabilization Fund, an undertaking the Treasury
Department denies.

Watch closely to see if the Financial Times'
discovery about the Fed's latest undertakings
ever makes the financial press in the United
States.

Monday's second big news was the renewed
attempt of the president of the Bundesbank to
talk down the gold price by speculating about
selling German gold reserves and putting the
proceeds into general equities. Interestingly,
the gold price seemed to laugh him off this
time.

Tim Wood's observations about the Bundesbank's
president at www.TheMiningWeb.com are pretty
compelling. You can find them here:

http://www.mips1.net/MGGold.nsf/Current/4225685F0043D1B285256B87006C3D
9A?OpenDocument

Or just go to TheMiningWeb's home page:

http://www.theminingweb.com/

No doubt another official attack on gold is being
devised even now. But as it gets so much more
obvious, the gold price suppression scheme seems
to be getting more difficult to maintain. There's no
telling how this will work out, nor how long it will
take, but the gold share market, blazing its way up,
seems unconvinced by a futures price below $300.

GATA was right at the beginning three years ago
and is more right than ever now. It's coming out, and
more of it will come out. Please stick with us and help
us with the liberation we work toward.

Prohibition.

Village Voice Press Clips columnist Cynthia Cotts, political humorist and
author Barry Crimmins and I will be the panelists (another panelist,
Washington DC journalist Jeremy Bigwood, had to postpone due to the fact
that he's reporting in Colombia tonight, but he'll be on the NYT forums on
April 9th).

Your participation is welcome and necessary (to participate, you will need

shall be said.

The recent exile from Colombia of authentic journalist Fernando Garavito

VITAL SIGNS: FOREIGN AFFAIRS

Who Needs Islamic Fundamentalism?
by Andrei Navrozov
After almost a century of dealing with international terrorism—since
communism, in practice as well as in theory, is hardly anything more complex
than terrorism on a global scale—Western democracies should have caught on to
the fact that all social movements, particularly those perceived as
spontaneous, are invariably organized, manipulated, and directed by those
whose interests they ultimately serve.  Do ordinary middle-class Americans
really get out of bed one day with the idea of sending money to arm the IRA?
Do English roses call on their local ironmongers before chaining themselves
to railings at nuclear installations?  Do timid Chinese students use their
life savings to hire buses and megaphones for a protest in Tiananmen Square?

Thus the West ought to have awakened to the uneasy realization that blaming
Islamic fundamentalism for the attack on Manhattan and Washington, D.C., is
like accusing a gun of murder.  The fierce and determined faces of the
killers, defying posterity in the news pages, are the faces of history’s fall
guys, clueless patsies whose eternal destiny it is to leave greasy
fingerprints on the surface of world events.  And the questions that the
West’s political and media establishments ought to have asked are: Who is the
ultimate client and beneficiary?  Who pulls the strings of these
marionettes?  Where does the thread of knowledge and responsibility lead?

That such a thread exists cannot be doubted.  We know that only four of the
terrorists had been trained as pilots, which means that the others, who
believed they were all in it together, may never have been told that theirs
was a suicide mission.  What information had been withheld from the four by
the cell leader who had brainwashed, financed, and trained them?  What
information had been withheld from the cell, hidden from the branch,
concealed from the national organization, and not supplied to the
international movement?  It is equally clear that the thread must have a
beginning.

Yet the West’s political and media establishments have time and again proved
themselves unable and unwilling to ask such uncomfortably far-reaching
questions.  Central as the causes of this epochal failure are to my argument,
in the scope of this article I can do little more than enumerate them.

The last serious effort in the West’s century-long struggle to apprehend and
reverse the global advance of totalitarianism coincided with the Reagan
presidency.  At that time, it was still possible for a detached observer such
as myself to find a common language with the times, if only because the
context of the debate left blank some tolerably wide margins.  Even in
Washington, but certainly in London in those years, to be marginalized for
criticizing the political, military, or intelligence establishment—for their
myopia, their wishful thinking, and their overall inability to understand or
to cope with the Soviet threat—did not mean to be summarily silenced.  It
meant being a dissident, with all the advantages of being part of a
legitimate political and intellectual minority.

Then everything changed.  President Bush’s term in office coincided with the
sudden restructuring of totalitarianism in Russia, a geopolitical hurricane
that blew away all the trusty signposts upon which a wary West had relied for
decades in the absence of any real knowledge or deep understanding of the
enemy.  Now the dissidents would no longer be heard in the ensuing chorus of
jubilant confusion: America’s new foreign policy of self-congratulation did
not leave us any margin at all.  When, in November 1991, Lord Chalfont
addressed the House of Commons with a plea to reconsider “Options for Change”
(Britain’s bumbling way of inaugurating the New World Order and pocketing the
“peace dividend”), he was reduced to quoting an article I had written in
support of his claim that Russia “still has enormous military power.”  When I
saw that the defense of the realm hinged on the turn of a lone dissident’s
pen, I realized that the game was up.

Eventually, I withdrew and moved to Italy, but not before publishing a short
book entitled The Coming Order: Reflections on Sovietology and the Media. In
it, as in all the newspaper and magazine articles that I managed to publish
during the last decade, I defended my view that the worldwide “collapse” of
“communism” is a strategic maneuver; that “restructuring” in the “Soviet
Union” is the transfer of power from the old Communist Party clique to the
new secret-police junta; and that Western Sovietologists, political
scientists, and media commentators are more helpless and naive than they have
ever been in the face of this new, and in all likelihood final, totalitarian
challenge.

Meanwhile, the issue of European unification had taken center stage in
Westminster.  With both “communism” and the “Soviet Union” safely buried,
even

  ARTIFICIAL 
  SWEETENERS 
  by Jim 
  Lynn 
  Aspartame, NutraSweet, Equal... If the label says 
  sugar-free, don't even think about it.Diet Cola Drinkers Take 
  Notice... Aspartame is an unstable drug that 
  turns to formaldehyde (embalming fluid) in liquids 
  above freezing temperature.If you are a daily consumer of artificial 
  sweeteners and sufferfrom headaches, joint pain, memory loss, numbness, 
  tinnitus,hearing loss, vision problems, weight gain, rashes, 
  seizures,fatigue, muscle spasms or dizziness, asthma or chest 
  tightness,you might want to discontinue artificial sweetener 
  consumptionand see if you notice an improvement. Many people 
  do.The culprit, according to many scientists and researchers, 
  couldbe aspartame, the artificial sweetener that is found incarbonated 
  soft drinks and more than 5000 other food/drug items.Cereals, instant 
  breakfasts, breath mints, sugar-free chewinggum, cocoa mixes, coffee 
  beverages, frozen deserts, juicebeverages, laxatives, multi-vitamins, milk 
  drinks,pharmaceuticals, shake mixes, nutritional supplements, 
  tabletopsweeteners, tea beverages, instant tea and coffees, topping 
  mixesand yogurt are just a few of the food items that list aspartameas 
  an ingredient.NOTE: Aspartame Vitamins for Kids...See the end of 
  this article on howto obtain a list of pharmaceutical companies, brand 
  names andcompanies offering aspartame laced vitamins...many of which 
  aremade for children. This list will amaze you at the impactaspartame 
  is had on the vitamin market.What is Aspartame?Aspartame is 
  the technical name for the brand names of artificialsweeteners, 
  NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful and Equal-Measure. Thesubstance was discovered 
  by accident in 1965 by James Schlatter,a chemist working for the G.D. 
  Searle Company. MonsantoCorporation bought out Searle in 1985, and made 
  SearlePharmaceuticals and NutraSweet Company separate 
  subsidiaries.Studies show that long-term use of aspartame can 
  trigger,aggravate or even mimic chronic illnesses like brain 
  tumors,epilepsy, parkinson's disease, birth defects, multiple 
  sclerosis,chronic fatigue syndrome, lupus and fibromyalgia.Lupus, 
  multiple sclerosis, fybromyalgia, brain tumors andAlzheimer's disease have 
  become almost epidemic, especiallyamong heavy users of diet cola's. Most 
  licensed physicians arenot aware of the aspartame connection, and so 
  mis-diagnosis iscommon and the illness remains aggravated. If you are 
  usingaspartame regularly, or are a heavy user of diet cola's and 
  haveany symptoms displayed by these diseases...stop consuming 
  dietdrinks and sugar substitutes to see if your symptoms 
  improve.Very briefly, aspartame is composed of three 
  drugs,phenylalanine, aspartic acid, and methanol. In fluid 
  form,Methanol (wood alcohol) breaks down into formic acid (ant 
  stingpoison) and formaldehyde (embalming fluid). An 
  EnvironmentalProtection Agency (EPA) assessment of methanol states 
  thatmethanol "is considered a cumulative poison due to the low rateof 
  excretion once it is absorbed." (1) Formic acid is used inindustry as an 
  activator to strip epoxy and urethane coatings.Formaldehyde is a deadly 
  neurotoxin, used for embalming corpsesin the funeral industry.As 
  an aside...Police departments and morticians are aware that human 
  corpses(they find) do not quickly corrupt (decompose) like they once 
  did20 years ago. Nowadays, corpses tend to remain intact. Could thisbe 
  due to high concentrations of formaldehyde stored in body fatcaused from 
  heavy and regular consumption of diet drinks?A one liter aspartame 
  sweetened beverage contains about 56 mg ofmethanol. Heavy users consume as 
  much as 250 mg of methanol dailyor 32 times the EPA limit (2).In 
  1985 the National Soft Drink Association (NSDA) noted thataspartame 
  converts to formaldehyde even while stored in the canor bottle, and made a 
  recommendation to the FDA that aspartameNOT be approved for use by people 
  in soda. The higher the storagetemperature (especially above 86 degrees), 
  the greater the lossof aspartame and the greater the increase of 
  formaldehyde.NSDA's reasoning was that the longer diet drinks are 
  stored, themore conversion of aspartame to formaldehyde occurs, 
  whichaffects the taste of their products. This account is published 
  inthe 1985 congressional record. Later, NSDA must have seen thehand

Them: Adventures with extremists
a book by Ron Jonson
and documentary video by British Channel 4 TV

Attempts to discredit Alex Jones by Ron Jonson Channel 4 hiring
him to infiltrate Bohemian Grove presidential retreat with hidden
video, but never expected Jones to succeed! Apparently, they
presumed US Secret Service and Sonoma County Sheriff's Department
could actually provide competent security for US presidents and
world leaders.

Jonson had spent 4 years working alongside Bin Laden's commander
in England and with KKK in USA, and by including Alex Jones in
this documentary it is a lame attempt to label Jones - a
journalist - with alleged professional terrorists. 
However, it was Jonson and British Channel 4 TV that was
associating with known terrorists, not Jones, so one must draw
their own conclusions 

On Monday 25 March, CSPAN website announced re-air of Ron Jonson
interview, originally aired on Sunday March 24. 3 shows were
scheduled on Monday, at 8pm and 11pm, plus Tuesday at 5:59am.
This scheduled listed the 3 times it aired on Sunday, at 8pm,
11pm and 5:59am Monday morning. CSPAN site listed a separate page
ofor Ron Jonson, Them, to sell videos of interview at $24.95.

This was at 1:30pm on Monday.

However, CSPAN immediately revised its website and schedule after
Alex Jones began getting calls about this interview during his
show, attacking CSPAN on multiple fronts, and announcing that
CSPAN's interviewer was its founder from the Pentagon.
Presumeably, many people would have wanted to watch the re-airing
of this strange interview.

By 2pm, however, CSPAN yanked the Jonson interview off its
website and scheduling, as previously announced for later that
evening. It declared, This program is not available for future
airing.

By 3pm, even this was yanked off CSPAN's website. A search
displayed zero referance to Ron Jonson, as it had done
previously. Even the link to selling videos of this interview
disappeared completely.

Zero shows were listed by CSPAN for that time period, for any of
its 3 channels, replacing announcements with TBA. 

Upon watching CSPAN during those slots showed reruns of Pentagon
briefing by Rumsfeld and another by state department on Somalia
War.

On Tuesday at 2pm, CSPAN still listed zero info on a search for
Ron Jonson.

Jones' investigative reporting - without influence nor
intervention by multinational news corporations not multinational
governments - clearly reveals government committing the genocidal
atrocities on September 11, 2001, and hidden video clearly shows
US and world leaders engaing in simulated human sacrifice to a
50-foot-tall Owl God in Northern California on the Summer
Solstice, 2001. 

In addition to his videos, Jones produces a local news broadcast
in Austin Texas, plus a world-wide radio show (6 hours of live
news and interviews 5 days a week).

Bin Laden seen near Pakistan border - reports

The Pentagon is investigating claims by Afghans that they have seen Osama
bin Laden.

The alleged sightings were in Afghanistan, close to the Pakistani border,
reports CNN.

US intelligence officers say locals claim bin Laden has crossed the border
repeatedly in recent weeks.

The alleged sightings are thought to be the most concrete evidence yet
gathered that bin Laden may still be in the remote mountains of south-east
Afghanistan.

US commanders are also looking into possible regroupings of up to 2,000
al-Qaida fighters in pockets of up to 200 close to the Pakistani border.

US officials have repeatedly refused to rule out the possibility that bin
Laden is still alive and operating in Afghanistan.

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.
