[CTRL] Barbara Hartwell - Persecution of whistleblowers escalates

Political Persecution
Against Whistleblowers Escalates

excerpt

Friends of Liberty and the Constitution:

This is an open letter to all defenders of the Constitution, the REAL
patriots who are willing to fight for liberty and justice for all. Liberty
and justice for ALL means liberty and justice for each INDIVIDUAL. INDIVIDUAL
RIGHTS guaranteed under the Constitution, and more importantly, bestowed by
God, as our birthright.

Defending INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS is the ONLY way to attain real freedom.

Not some socialist ideal of sacrificing the rights of the individual for the
so-called 'common good'. Not some fascist ideal of 'Homeland Security'
whereby the surveillance powers and control mechanisms of the state supercede
an INDIVIDUAL citizen's right to privacy or 'life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness'.

Since the fascist takeover by the Bush administration, ALL of our individual
rights are threatened as never before in the history of our country. But for
some of us who had taken a public stand to defend the Constitution, long
before the overt manifestation of the encroaching police state; for some of
us who have come from inside various government agencies to blow the whistle
on corruption and hideous abuses of human rights, such as myself, my sister
Irene Adrian and ex-FBI agent Geral Sosbee, the situation has become
immediately life-threatening.

Since I broke out of the black operations in 1994, I have been targeted to be
'neutralized' by the CIA. Since 1994, several attempts have been made on my
life, through being poisoned; directed energy weapons and arranged car
'accidents' causing injuries which resulted in permanent disabilities for
which I have never been able to get the proper medical treatment.

The persecution directed at me has taken many forms. The perpetrators of this
persecution have used all the standard tactics including character
assassination; impugning my sanity; attempting to destroy my professional
reputation. I have written at length about this persecution and
neutralization campaign since 1996, when I first went public as a survivor of
the CIA MK Ultra program, so it would be redundant to repeat all the gory
details in this report.

FINANCIAL RUIN : THE FINAL FRONTIER

But worst of all, and the hardest tactic to withstand (aside from physical
assaults) is financial ruin.

Due to the last stages of extreme financial destitution, it is possible that
I may lose my website in the near future because I have no money to pay my
phone, electric or Internet Service Provider bills. I have not received any
substantial contributions to my Legal Defense and Research Fund for the past
six (6) months, the only way I have of funding my work. My last small but
reliable source of financial support, which did not even cover basic living
expenses, will be cut off in September, which means that I may also lose my
home at that time. I can't be sure that any of these things will happen (and
I pray to God that they won't) but given the indications, and that I have no
dependable source of financial support, I must prepare myself for the worst
case scenario.

And in case anyone is wondering why I am not steadily employed in any
'regular' job, it is because I suffer from chronic illness and disabilities
which make it impossible for me to be reliable, because of my fragile and
unpredictable health. I refuse to be a health bore and the state of my health
is my private business. But I have no insurance, so I am unable to get
medical treatment. And most significantly, the disabilities I suffer from are
a direct result of the abuses perpetrated on me for many years while being
utilized in the black operations and of the subsequent persecution, though
naturally, I have no way to prove that. I am not eligible for disability
benefits from the Social Security system, due to the fact that I have no
employment records and have therefore not paid enough (illegal and
unconstitutional) taxes to the extortionists of the IRS and their dark
overlords at the multi-national private corporation, the Fed, to qualify.

All of my adult life I have variously been 'self-employed'; worked for CIA
front companies under limited contracts; or been an official dependent of
others who claimed me on their tax forms. Of course, this is the way it was
designed by my oppressors so that I would not be able to earn a living and
survive if I ever managed to break out of their control. In essence, I am
like a ghost, having little substance within the system, since I have been
living on the fringes of it (and worse, inside the deepest and darkest bowels
of it) for the better part of a lifetime.

I am not looking for sympathy and I stopped caring long ago whether or not
anyone believes that the political persecution engineered against a target
could result in the extreme situation I have described here. For the record,
I am just stating the facts. These

According to this next article, it would appear that the massacre was in

Massacre at Mazar describes how thousands of Taliban troops were rounded up
after the battle of Kunduz in November and taken in sealed shipping
containers to Sheberghan prison, a jail then under US control in
north-western Afghanistan.


Then there is a radio show, CounterSpin, that discusses this, dated December
7 - 14, 2001.  It affirms they are talking about a massacre in November 2001:

http://www.webactive.com/webactive/cspin/cspin20011207.html

A massacre of Taliban prisoners at a Northern Alliance compound has human
rights groups and very few journalists demanding an investigation. But most
media outlets don't seem to be pursuing the killing of hundreds of soldiers
under the control of the US-backed Northern Alliance. Veteran human rights
journalists and executive editor of MediaChannel.org Danny Schechter will
join CounterSpin to talk about coverage of the prison massacre at
Mazar-i-Sharif.

begin.  The segment-specific link is the intro, not the section it's supposed
to be.)

Human Rights Watch has a report The Massacre in Mazir-I Sharif.  It's
about events that occurred in 1998 and makes no mention in the summary of US
involvement.

http://store.yahoo.com/hrwpubs/af11.html

This report documents a massacre of civilians and other serious breaches of
international humanitarian law committed in Afghanistan in August 1998. The
incident, which occurred in Mazar-i Sharif, a city in northern Afghanistan,
represents one of the single worst examples of killings of civilians in
Afghanistan’s twenty-year war. No foreigners or press were allowed in the
city or its environs at the time, and only a few humanitarian organizations
have been permitted to carry out relief work in the city since the incident.
Human Rights Watch is the first international human rights organization to
interview survivors who have reached Pakistan in the weeks following the
massacre. In the report, we urge the United Nations to undertake an urgent
investigation into the massacre and the full range of abuses that took place
in Mazar-i Sharif, including 1997 killings of Taliban soldiers in the city
that motivated those involved in the subsequent offensive to seek revenge.
Human Rights Watch believes that determining the truth about what happened
represents the first step toward accountability and may provide a means
toward breaking the cycle of revenge killings that continue to characterize
the civil war in Afghanistan.

  Subject: AMERICAN troops cut out the tongues of Taliban prisoners and
  poured acid over their heads


  'AMERICA TORTURED TALIBAN'
  Sunday Mirror report
  Saturday 22nd June 2002


  AMERICAN troops cut out the tongues of Taliban prisoners and poured acid
 over their heads before ordering their deaths, a TV documentary claims.

  The film Massacre At Mazar claims that the soldiers orchestrated the mass
 slaughter of al-Qaeda fighters during an uprising at the prison following
the
 bloodiest battle of the Afghan war, at Mazar-e-Sharif.

  One Northern Alliance soldier says in the film: The Americans did
whatever
 they wanted. We had no power to stop them.

  I was a witness when an American soldier broke one prisoner's neck and
 poured acid-like substances on others.

  Another witness claims four prisoners were beaten unconscious by US
soldiers,
  then disappeared.

  He says: They cut their hair and poured acid or something on to them.
They
 were screaming and jumping up and down. They had a black stick and beat
them.


  The US and Northern Alliance have always denied claims of a massacre at
the
 Qala-i-Janghi fortress in Mazar-e-Sharif.

  The evidence of new atrocities comes after the Sunday Mirror published
 pictures of the horrific treatment of Taliban fighters held at another
camp,
 Shibarghan - dubbed the Afghan Auschwitz.

  The film, made by British producer Jamie Doran, and shown to the German
 parliament last week, also tells how 8,000 Taliban prisoners were rounded
up
 and transported in metal containers to Shirbaghan.

  A driver of one of the trucks says many prisoners died of thirst in the
 stifling containers.

[CTRL] Underwater and Underground Bases by Richard Sauder, Ph.D.

Comments on the IUFOC 2001 Summer Seminar
By Donald M. Ware, 5 Oct 01

excerpt

Dr. Richard Sauder, author of a new book, Underwater and Underground Bases,
amazed many with his comments and slides. He mentioned a US patent for a
pulsed microwave transmitter to the auditory cortex. He suggested, We are
subsidizing our own mental enslavement. I wondered if there aren't other
reasons for this patent. He showed 1966 evidence of extremely large undersea
bases. He said that an Undersecretary of Energy is a contractor to the US
Government getting large amounts of money for constructing and maintaining
miscellaneous buildings at such bases. The Naval Facilities Engineering
Service Centers on both coasts service large facilities under our continental
shelves. He mentioned possible genetic engineering projects underground.

__Support the Corporate Patriot Enforcement Act - Write Your Representatives

In recent years, corporate execs have been rushing to relocate their companies in the 
Caribbean, most often in Bermuda where there is no income tax. This practice deprives 
the Treasury of an estimated $70 billion a year - money desperately needed to fund 
critical programs in education and healthcare. To close tax loopholes exploited by 
corporate executives, Representative Richard Neal (D-MA) has proposed legislation that 
bans the unpatriotic practice of relocation for tax purposes. Indeed, what could be 
more unpatriotic than U.S. companies declaring themselves foreign to avoid paying 
taxes? Adding insult to injury, many of these formerly American companies enjoy 
lucrative government contracts... The aptly named, Corporate Patriot Enforcement Act, 
would make it illegal for

Timetable 11. September 2001

according to different newspapers. all times e.d.t. Most times are reported
differently, if there are significant differences/gaps we provide the
extremes.
All aircraft flying over American airspace are monitored and controlled by a
network of 20 regional Federal Aviation Authority air traffic control
centres, backed up by individual airport control towers. Military aircraft
under Norad control can/must intervene with domestic traffic only if called
on for help by their civilian colleagues or, as it happened in Tampa/Florida,
when they learned by monitoring the radio of the FAA that there might be
something concerning the military (here: a cessna stolen by a 15 year old
flight student). Although Norad has its own radar system to track aircraft
over the US, its prime task is to watch for hostile aircraft approaching
America from outside - and to monitor the own military traffic .

Documentary of US 'war crimes' shocks
Europe

  
  

  June 12 2002 at
  05:28PM 
By Clive Freeman Berlin - American soldiers have been involved in the
torture and murder of captured Taliban prisoners, and may have aided in the
"disappearance" of up to 3000 men in the region of Mazar-i-Sharif,
according to Jamie Doran, an Irish documentary film-maker. Doran's
latest film, Massacre At Mazar, was shown on Wednesday in in the Reichstag, the
German parliament building in Berlin, and there were immediate calls for an
international commission to be set up to investigate charges made in the
documentary. Andrew McEntee, a leading international human rights
lawyer, who has viewed the film footage and read full transcripts, believes
there is prima facie evidence of serious war crimes having been committed by
American soldiers in Afghanistan. 

  
  
'The Americans did whatever they
  wanted'McEntee, who was in Berlin for Wednesday's special screening,
said war crimes had been committed not just under international law but, also,
"under the laws of the United States itself". Much of the footage shown
in Doran's 20-minute documentary was taken secretly, and although witnesses were
said to be living in fear of reprisal from within Afghanistan itself they had
all agreed to appear at any future international war crimes tribunal to give
evidence, it was claimed. One witness in the film claimed he had seen an
American soldier break an Afghan prisoner's neck and pour acid on others. "The
Americans did whatever they wanted. We had no power to stop them," he alleged.
Sometimes prisoners who were beaten up and taken outside had
"disappeared", he said. In other sequences witnesses, among them two
men, claimed they had been forced to drive into the desert with hundreds of
Taliban prisoners. The living were then summarily shot while 30 to 40
American soldiers purportedly stood by, it was alleged. The prisoners had been
taken there on the orders of the local American commander, according to the
documentary. In the film, an Afghan witness admitted to killing
prisoners himself, and another officer, allegedly a senior officer in the army
of deputy defence minister Dostum's forces, was said to have gone into hiding
following threats to his life. The far-left Party of Democratic
Socialism (PDS) arranged for the special showing of Massacre At Mazar in the
Reichstag. Party chairman Roland Claus was cautious regarding its content but
did spoke of its attempt at "authenticity." Andre Brie, a PDS member of
the European Parliament, concerned by reports of ill treatment of Taliban
prisoners, said he would be in favour of an international commission looking
into "disturbing" questions raised by the film. At a press conference
Brie said he had known of Doran's dangerous film activity in Afghanistan, and
had helped to support him financially. The PDS party faction had wanted
to obtain authentic footage of the war in Afghanistan, he said. The film
was due to be screened at the European Parliament in Strasbourg later on
Wednesday evening. - Sapa-DPA

-Caveat Lector-

The account given by Army Private Matt Guckenheimer, as reported in the
Ithaca Journal on May 25, 2002, certainly adds a dimension to the issue of US
war crimes:

http://www.theithacajournal.com/news/stories/20020525/topstories/380284.html

excerpts

For Army Private Matt Guckenheimer, who recently returned home to Tompkins
County after two missions in Eastern Afghanistan, processing these memories
and readjusting to American life has just begun.

We were told there were no friendly forces, said Guckenheimer, an
assistant gunner with the 10th Mountain Division at Fort Drum. If there was
anybody there, they were the enemy. We were told specifically that if there
were women and children to kill them.


  He later attempted to clarify those remarks.  (I'm glad that the official
position of the USG is, apparently, that babies are still considered to be
non-combatants.)

A soldier's story

Recently your paper quoted me as saying that my unit was ordered to kill
women and children.

I would like to clarify this quote and provide more context.

Prior to the operation, we were made aware of the fact that the hostile
forces of the Whaleback might include women and children. In that event, if
those women and children showed hostile intent, we were ordered to kill them
as hostile forces, just like any other hostile force we encountered. However,
this does not mean that we were ordered to slaughter noncombatants such as
babies.

We were further informed that some of these children are trained starting at
a very young age to be soldiers. Knowing this, we could not afford to just
dismiss them as noncombatants.

However, I do not want anyone to get the idea that we were ever sent out to
kill anyone and anything that moves. We are better than that, both as a
military unit and as a society.

This is the best summary and analysis I've seen of the timeline on 9-11 in

Cheryl Seal is very bold in her analysis and conclusions.  I found this at
Democrats.com which, IMO, can be considered to be a reasonably mainstream and
highly reputable site -- with a large audience to boot.

SMOKING GUN 5: FINAL TIMELINE
The Events, Planes and Players of September 11: Putting It All Together
By Cheryl Seal

example:

9:24: NORAD orders three F-16s scrambled from Langley
The timing here is absolutely diabolical. It is EXACTLY not enough time for
either a jet from Langley, which will be 10 minutes too late, or one from
Andrews, which would have had just about 3 minutes between reaching the
airspace over D.C. and dealing with the incoming Boeing 757. That Langley was
chosen indicates a FEAR that in that 3 minutes a good pilot from Andrews just
might have succeeded in aborting the disaster, despite the split second time
frame.

Israeli detention centres draw on Nazi camps

Khalid Amayreh for IAP News
3 June 2002

excerpts

An Israeli soldier has brazenly admitted that many of the recently-opened
detention camps throughout Palestine in which thousands of Palestinians are
interned were built along the same fashion as German concentration camps
during the second world war.

According to a testimony by a Palestinian detainee, who has just been freed
from the Ofer detention camp, a high-ranking Israeli camp official told
Palestinian detainees last month that we will treat you in the same way the
Nazis treated us.

[CTRL] Soldier clarifies killing women and children statement

A soldier's story

--

--
Recently your paper quoted me as saying that my unit was ordered to kill
women and children.

I would like to clarify this quote and provide more context.

Prior to the operation, we were made aware of the fact that the hostile
forces of the Whaleback might include women and children. In that event, if
those women and children showed hostile intent, we were ordered to kill them
as hostile forces, just like any other hostile force we encountered. However,
this does not mean that we were ordered to slaughter noncombatants such as
babies.

We were further informed that some of these children are trained starting at
a very young age to be soldiers. Knowing this, we could not afford to just
dismiss them as noncombatants.

However, I do not want anyone to get the idea that we were ever sent out to
kill anyone and anything that moves. We are better than that, both as a
military unit and as a society.

The event was a great success! We couldn't have hoped for better.

So where's the transcripts, the photos, the audio feeds you ask? Well, we're
working on it !

Apologies for the delay on this one, I guess the lack of CSPAN coverage
caught us a little unprepared (they only told us on friday!!) as were hoping
to take a feed from that.


We are all volunteers, and don't have a big budget, so please be patient.
Check back later in the week. Or join in online, in the questions section
right now.

And by the way, we have big plans for this website, so check back often !
Thank you.

According to psyoper Thorne, the 10 largest 'owners' of the Federal 
Reserve looks like a list from 'Der Strumer', circa 1930:

i) The Rothschild Family - London
ii) The Rothschild Family - Berlin
iii) The Lazard Brothers - Paris
iv) Israel Seiff - Italy
v) Kuhn-Loeb - Germany
vi) The Warburgs - Amsterdam
vii) The Warburgs - Hamburg
viii) Lehman Brothers - New York City
ix) Goldman  Sachs - New York City
x) The Rockefeller Family - New York City


A list found by Edward Flaherty, Ph.D. Department of Economics 
College of Charleston, SC:

http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/Senate/3616/flaherty5.html

'We can simply look at the most recent list of shareholders to test 
the claim that foreigners own the New York Federal Reserve Bank. 
According to the N.Y. Fed itself, as of June 30, 1997 the top eight 
shareholders were 

Chase Manhatten Bank
Citibank
Morgan Guaranty Trust Company
Fleet Bank
Bankers Trust
Bank of New York
Marine Midland Bank
Summit Bank.

All of the major shareholders seen here and all of the banks on the 
complete list are either nationally- or state-chartered banks. All of 
them are U.S.-owned. Kah's claim that foreigners directly own the 
N.Y. Fed is completely wrong. This list is consistent, however, with 
Mullins in that all the owners are domestic banks functioning within 
the N.Y. Federal Reserve district. The discrepancies are likely due 
to mergers, new entries into the banking market, or other significant 
changes in the size of district banks since the publication of 
Mullins' list. One point is clear: foreigners do not own the New York 
Federal Reserve directly'.

Actually, banking in New York in the first half of the 20th Century 
was very much a 'white shoe' affair. All the 'Jewish' bankers came 
out of two small banks out of over a hundred in the city. I remember 
seeing a list of the 500 or so most important bankers of that era and 
only three or four were of any real importance.

At 8:20 am, Flight 11 from Boston ceases its transponder signal, radio
contact lost, plane goes dramatically off-course. According to NORAD, it
takes Air Traffic Control EIGHTEEN MINUTES to inform them about Flight 11,

 __Fort Stewart Terrorist Is Set Free - What the HECK is Going On Here???

  The soldier from Fort Stewart, Ga, who was arrested on charges of
planting
 an explosive device on a dirt road will serve 18 months probation after
 pleading no contest yesterday. A Jacksonville police officer stopped Derek
 Lawrence Peterson in May and found him wearing all black clothing and black
 plastic pads on his knees and elbows. Police said Peterson, 27, told them
he
 was in the area practicing 'recon tactics.' After he was arrested,
Peterson,
 who has served on an Army tank crew at Fort Stewart since March, at first
was
 held on a $5 million bond. Peterson's attorney, Hank Coxe, said yesterday
his
 client's case had been blown out of proportion because police initially
 suspected Peterson's actions were related to terrorism. WHAT? No contest
 means the Government did not want the truth to come out. Probation means
 Peterson will return to ACTIVE DUTY. This looks like a BLACK OPERATION by
the
 Pentagon to create a terrorist attack. Call your rep at 202-224-3121 and

   If you are able to answer:  was Sexton/RL's visit planned much in advance,
 or was it spontaneous, ie, within the previous four or five days?  is
 there a criminal investigation being conducted?

Cameron Sexton / Rising Legion was invited by the Lt. to visit him the night that I 
posted the pdf's online - Thursday May 30th. He left first thing Friday morning and 
returned on Saturday. There is NO way that he had ANYTHING to do with this alleged 
poisoning, but given that Galati was poisoned on 23rd May ( don't forget that Galati 
is representing a terrorist suspect) I personally think that Vreeland made the whole 
thing up to give himself credibility.

As to Mike Rupperts email, in case you werent aware, Mike's site has been hacked 
repeatedly over the past two months  somebody has been sending emails purporting to 
be from him to various government officials and members of his From the Wilderness 
mailing list. Given that he has made absolutely no confirmation of this story, I am 
highly suspect that Ruppert was the origin of the email - rather it was the hacker.

I would also suggest that people review these documents:

http://www3.sympatico.ca/ron666/mishawaka.html

where Mike Vreeland was arrested, used a false name  claimed he worked for the FBI.

I would also like people to consider why Mike Vreeland, ONI, would use AOL for email  
why he would ask me and RisingLegion to trace IP addresses for him because he didn't 
know how. (I have copies of IM conversations with him that prove this.)

I would also like people to cosider why the Russian email bears a MSN copyright which 
reads '2002'.  also why many of the FIN documents bear a fax header from him dated 
April 28th 2002 (was he using his fax as a photocopier to produce fraudulent documents 
based on those which were already in circulation on sites like scholnick's  
deepblacklies?)

You should also read the judge's rulings available at:

www3.sympatico.ca/ron666/vreeland.html

(especially as to the evidence submitted of an email sent to the Pentagon just before 
the infamous phonecall requesting an office for Delmart Edward Vreeland - the Pentagon 
staff are not intelligence experts - otherwise I'm sure they would have *somehow* been 
absent from work on 9-11)

When you've finished with that, email me  I'll tell you more. I used to be 100% 
Vreeland as several people know. I was wrong. He is operating a pathetic scheme of 
lies - which is being bolstered by a growing internet cult of followers - in order to 
clear his name of the fraud charges  avoid extradition where he is wanted in many, 
many states. The defense fund is a convienient way to get pocket money in the mean 
time. I wouldn't be suprised if he's planning on selling his story to Hollywood or 
some other such crap. This man is a con man - a clever one - but a con man.

I will be posting a fuller statement soon when I have many other facts verified that 
will not put certain people under danger. But if ANYBODY continues down the line that 
Rising/Cameron poisoned Vreeland I will notify him and put the two of you in contact 
because that is considered slander.

So read the above (you might also be interested in finding out about Paul Dore and 
the novel Ender's game - which, when asked, the Lt claimed was his favorite book)

Rising and I put in a lot of effort for Vreeland. Rising scanned all the documents 
personally that I uploaded to the web. Vreeland's new game is to call everyone who 
disagrees with him a paid disinfo agent and people are going along with this.

I know the rest of the board is exhausted with this story - believe

[CTRL] Barbara Hartwell: Urgent Alert: Political Persecution by CIA

Urgent Alert: Political Persecution by CIA

Posted By: BarbaraHartwell [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date: Sunday, 9 June 2002, 1:15 p.m.

PO Box 832
Woodstock, NY 12498

URGENT ALERT ON POLITICAL PERSECUTION IN AMERICA:
THE CASE OF IRENE ADRIAN

My sister, Irene Adrian, is a survivor of the CIA MK Ultra program. But she
hasn't 'survived' it yet, for she is still being victimized by the CIA. And
like most survivors of these government black operations, she has been
targeted for severe persecution. The perpetrators of the mind control
operations fear that the consequences of their violations of human rights
will come home to roost if the survivors/victims speak out and reveal the
brutal truth about how their lives have been co-opted and destroyed. These
criminals will do anything they think they can get away with to silence the
victims and to keep control over every aspect of their lives. Their M.O. is
well known to those who have been targeted for their 'neutralization'
campaigns.

Their tactics are textbook classics of Psychological Operations:

IsolationAlienation...Deprivation...DestabilizationFinancial
ruin.Destruction of a target's healthSabotage of all family and
personal relationships.and so it goes.

Although Irene Adrian's case is not known to the public, that it is about to
change right now. Because she is my sister, I probably know more about
Irene's situation than anyone in this world, except Irene herself. I have
been witness to many strange and dreadful incidents throughout her life. And
I will not allow one more day to go by in which the perpetrators of these
atrocities can get away with torturing and harassing my sister, making her
life a living hell, killing her piece by piece.

I had to talk Irene into it, and it took a long time, but she has finally
given me permission to make her case public. She does not want public
attention, but there seems little choice at this point and her story needs to
be told, not only for her sake but for the many others who suffer in silence
and who don't know where to turn for help.

At the moment, exposing this information, exposing some of the perpetrators,
is the only assistance I am able to provide. I have no resources of my own,
financial or otherwise. The CIA has driven me into a state of physical
disability and financial destitution. It is all I can do to keep body and
soul in one piece, a roof over my head, and stave off the wolf at the door;
not to mention the spooks and goons, with whom I am in a constant exhausting
battle which I can only compare to trench warfare.

In Irene's case, some of the past perpetrators of mind control and other
human rights abuses come from the highest levels of the government and their
cronies, including Ted Kennedy and Nelson Rockefeller. Both my sister and
myself were taken as children to William Jennings Bryan III, the notorious
hypnotist and mind control programmer, widely believed to have programmed
Sirhan Sirhan. ( When Bryan died, the CIA showed up within hours,
confiscating all his personal effects and files.)

Please read on; please have an open mind and a compassionate heart. You may
or may not be shocked at some of what I am going to tell you about what has
happened --and continues to happen-- to my sister. I don't doubt you will be
horrified. But please understand that making Irene's case public may be the
deciding factor in whether or not she is able to survive the devastating
persecution she is subjected to on a daily basis. Her life may depend upon
it.

Irene is shadowed by carloads of gov't agents wherever she goes: to the
grocery store; to the park to walk her German shepherd, Solo; to the school
where she teaches music. She can't leave the house without these packs of
goons hot on her trail.

She wakes up with stun-gun marks and ugly cuts and bruises on her face and
body, not remembering how they got there. She has been hit with
electromagnetic weapons and she has been drugged. Psychotronic weapons ( mind
control technology) are being deployed against her. After these brutal
assaults, much of her memory is wiped out, by drugs, hypnosis, and/or
electronic means.

The perps apparently have no problem getting into her house, and even into
her bedroom, though she locks herself into the room at night with deadbolts
on the door. Just a couple weeks ago, one of the thugs took a shot at her
while she was walking her dog. The bullet whizzed by, not far from where they
were standing, into a copse of nearby trees.

For some reason, the criminals who are persecuting my sister have also
targeted her beloved dog, Solo. He too, has been repeatedly hit with
electromagnetic weapons and stun guns and he has the scars to prove it. I've
seen those scars myself. When Irene visited me

I was poison target: Lawyer
Client's ouster stalled

excerpts

The lawyer for a man convicted of associating with convicted millennium bomb
plotter Ahmed Ressam stunned an extradition hearing yesterday when he said
his food had been poisoned and he'd been threatened with death.

... Galati successfully argued that he needed more time to prepare Ouzghar's
defence because of the threats and poisoning.

I was poisoned and I went to see a doctor, Galati said.

  June 1, 2002  1400 hrs

  I am writing this from a hotel room in Sacramento. There is little I can
  do from here except report what I know. I am presently without the
  ability to report in further detail.

  Both Mike Vreeland and his lawyer Rocco Galati have been poisoned.
  Both are apparently out of the woods, but for Vreeland it was a very
  close call.

  Here's what I know. Approximately four days ago, shortly after releasing
  the first batch of FIN (financial transaction documents involving the
  FED) Vreeland received two bottles of wine from Allan Greenspan.
  Vreeland stated that he had spoken to Greenspan on the phone and
  knew that the wine was coming.

  I was on the phone with Vreeland yesterday right after he had had
  about two glasses of the wine. Upon answering the phone Vreeland
  immediately stated that he had been vomitting blood. He looked in the
  mirror while he was on the phone with me and said that the whites of
  his eyes were turning blue and was feeling violently ill. I could hear
  sounds of the toilet flushing and water running. Vreeland was
  obviously ill.

  He became disoriented but as soon as he saw his eyes he said, Shit,
  it's the same stuff they gave Marc [Bastien] - clozapine. In a frenzy he
  went to a stash or previously prepared syringes and took five
  successive injections of medications. I have a list of what he took but
  am not disclosing it now. I listened as the caps came off the syringes,
  hit the floor, and as he injected.

  I stayed on the phone with him for about 45 minutes until a friend of his
  got in the apartment. Vreeland was fighting sleep. He didn't sound like
  he was faking at all.

  Today I learned from Vreeland that his attorney - Rocco Galati - had
  been poisoned while eating in a Toronto restaurant and had begun
  bleeding from his nose (and possibly ears) after becoming violently ill.
  There were apparently multiple witnesses to this incident. The Galati
  poisoning occured on the same day that Vreeland received the wine.
  Galati is now out of the hospital but extremely weak.

  Galati apparently made the moves for an emergency hearing yesterday
  while Vreeland was opening the wine but it may be the case that he
  made an emergency contact to the court today. I just don't know.

  Galati has moved for an emergency court hearing and, due to other
  seucrity issues, Vreeland is being (and probably already has been)
  relocated to another more secure location.

  I have assigned my Toronto correspondent to meet with both Vreeland
  and Galati tomorrow. I am on the road and not back in my office until
  Monday. I will report more when I have more. Details are sketchy and
  once FTW's reporter has sifted through it all we will have more and
  better details.

__Read 'The Bush Dyslexicon' - Updated Post-911!

Was George W. Bush 'transformed' by 9/11? Confronted with that crisis, did he 
suddenly become 'Churchillian,' 'Lincolnesque,' 'another Roosevelt'- a man of 
'gravitas' and 'splendid eloquence,' 'astute,' 'commanding,' 'strong' and 'wise'? 
Absolutely not, writes Mark Crispin Miller. In substantial new additions to 'The Bush 
Dyslexicon: Observations on a National Disorder', the noted media expert makes the 
opposite case--that Bush was not changed in the slightest by our national ordeal. With 
lucidity and care, Miller demonstrates that, after 9/11, Bush made just as little 
sense as ever. Rather, it was Bush's audience that was temporarily changed by the 
attacks; Americans needed the sort of leader that they now imagined George W. Bush to 
be. Remember Chauncey Gardner in 'Being There?' That's our Bush!

Fear of Embargo Behind US Move Against Populist President
by Greg Palast
The Guardian (UK), Monday May 13, 2002

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez was warned of the likely coup against him in advance 
by the Secretary General of OPEC, Ali Rodriguez, allowing Chavez to prepare an 
extraordinary plan which spared both his government and his life, an investigation has 
revealed.

#

Newsnight will broadcast and webcast Palast’s report from Caracas tonight, Monday, 
during the programme which begins at 10:30pm.  Meirion Jones, Producer.  See 
www.bbc.co.uk/Newsnight/ or www.GregPalast.com.  The webcast remains accessible for at 
least 24 hours.

#

Mr. Rodriguez, a former leftist guerrilla, called Chavez from OPEC headquarters in 
Vienna several days before the attempted overthrow in April.  He tipped off his ally 
that OPEC had advance word that some Arab nations, later revealed as Libya and Iraq, 
planned to call for a new oil embargo against the United States over Palestine.

OPEC's chief warned Chavez that the US would have to prod a long-simmering coup into 
action to break the back of any embargo threat, likely April 11, start of a general 
strike.  It was Venezuela which shattered the first oil embargo of 1973 by replacing 
Arab oil with its own huge reserves.

The warning - revealed by an investigation for BBC2's Newsnight to be shown tonight - 
explains the oddly swift and safe return of Chavez to power within two days of his 
April 12 capture by military officers under the direction of coup leader Pedro 
Carmona.  Until now, there remained a mystery as to why Carmona, who declared himself 
president, and Venezuela's military chiefs, most of whom backed the coup, simply 
surrendered without firing a shot.

The answer, Newsnight was told by a Chavez insider, is that several hundred pro-Chavez 
troops were hidden in secret corridors under and leading into Miraflores, the 
Presidential Palace.  Juan Barreto, a leader of Chavez' party in the National 
Assembly, was with Chavez when he was under siege.  Barreto said that Jose Baduel, 
chief of the paratroop division loyal to Chavez, waited until Carmona was inside 
Miraflores.  Baduel then called Carmona and informed him that, with troops virtually 
under his chair, Carmona was as much a hostage as Chavez.  He gave Carmona twenty-four 
hours to return Chavez alive.

Escape from Miraflores was impossible for Carmona.  The building was surrounded by 
hundreds of thousands of Chavista demonstrators who, alerted by Chavez' Minister of 
Foreign Affairs, had marched on Miraflores from The Ranchos, the poorest barrios.

Despite the warning and his preparations, Chavez was forced to surrender to coup 
leaders on April 12 because his first line of defense, Plan Avila, failed.  Under 
Plan Avila, made public shortly after the coup, the Presidential Palace would be 
surrounded with tanks.  However, the tank battalion commander stunned Chavez by 
refusing the president's orders to act.

Chavez himself told Newsnight that upon receiving the warning from OPEC, he hoped to 
stave off a coup entirely by issuing a statement meant to mollify the Bush 
Administration.  Chavez pledged that Venezuela would never join, nor tolerate, a 
renewed oil embargo.  But Chavez had already incurred America's wrath by slashing 
Venezuelan oil output and rebuilding OPEC, causing oil prices to nearly double to over 
$20 a barrel.

Chavez opponents made clear they would not abide by OPEC production limits and would 
reverse Chavez' plan to double the royalties charged foreign oil companies in 
Venezuela, principally, US petroleum giant Exxon-Mobil.

The American government's panic over the looming calls for an oil embargo, made public 
by Iraq and Libya on April 8 and 9, also explains the US State Department's 
ill-concealed and clumsy support for the coup attempt.  Chavez told Newsnight, I have 
written proof of the time of the entries and exits of two US military officers into 
the headquarters of the coup plotters - their names, whom they met with, what they 
said - proof on video and on still photographs.  Last month the Guardian reported a 
former US intelligence officer claims that the US had been considering a coup to 
overthrow the elected Venezuelan president for nearly a year.  Wayne Madsen, a former 
intelligence officer with the US navy, told the Guardian that American military 
attaches had been in touch with members of the Venezuelan military to examine the 
possibility of a coup.

Trying to restore diplomatic channels to the US, Chavez has played down the importance 
of the American meddling which nearly ended in his death.  But Guillermo Garcia Ponce, 
a key Chavez advisor, charges that US funding was behind three simultaneous plots to 
assassinate Chavez.  Garcia Ponce, who holds the title of Political

__On Mother's Day, Let's Honor our Feminist Foremothers

It used to be common parlance, but in these politically correct times it's just not 
politic to use the f word in public. The f word? Feminism. Arguably the defining 
political movement of the 20th century - more potent and world-altering than Marxism 
or Maoism - feminism is being forced from the political landscape and popular lexicon, 
its enemies not men, but women. Unlike the M movements, feminism is neither 
oppressive nor outmoded; far from it. A cursory glance at compelling books such as 
Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting by in America by Barbara Ehrenreich, Sex  Power by 
Susan Estrich or My Forbidden Face: Growing Up Under the Taliban: A Young Woman's 
Story by Latifah, all of which detail the stunning lack of advancement women have made 
despite decades of feminist struggle, makes it obvious that feminism is more necessary 
than ever. So writes Victoria A. Brownworth in the Baltimore Sun.

__Democrats Plan for Wins in the West

Susan Milligan writes in the Boston Globe, Democrats are looking to the Rocky 
Mountain West to make gains in this fall's elections, hoping to capitalize on 
resentment over the Bush administration's decision to locate a nuclear dump in Nevada 
and demographic changes that might help crack the longtime Republican dominance in the 
traditionally conservative region. [The Yucca Mountain] dump issue, when combined with 
a heavy influx of Latino voters in parts of the West, has Democrats plotting a new 
electoral strategy for this November and beyond. While Republicans scoff at the notion 
that the Democrats could make substantial gains in the region, Democratic operatives 
are mapping out a battle plan for New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada and Colorado.

from the Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty. The Senate ratified this treaty three 
decades ago, and the president has no right to unilaterally walk away from it without 
the advice and consent of the Senate. Withdrawing from this treaty could lead to 
dangerous new nuclear arms races with Russia and China and move the world closer to 
nuclear war. Please stop Mr. Bush from taking this dangerous action. We need to live 
by the rule of law and the US needs to set an example. Disavowing treaties is the 
worst possible example. Don't let the president shred our constitution to pursue 
foolish dreams of weaponizing outer space and deploying unworkable missile defenses.

Subject:  Your Four Points of Intellectual Dimness

PLEASE DISTRIBUTE WIDELY…

AN OPEN LETTER TO STEVE RENDALL

May 8, 2002

Dear Mr. Rendall:

I have monitored sporadically your immature rantings regarding my writings.
Inasmuch as I gather that you have now distilled your critiques of my work to
their four most salient points and that your hysteria has diminished
somewhat, I will now respond to each of those four points so that you can get
some much needed rest. Frankly, I am somewhat disappointed that these
critiques are the best that you can muster for either yourself or your
colleague Norman Solomon. However, in advance of a much needed and
anticipated KPFA radio appearance scheduled for May 15th featuring Mr.
Solomon and Delmart “Mike” Vreeland, wherein Mr. Solomon will be held
accountable in his own right for some horrendous accusations and assumptions,
I think it best now to put your feeble attacks off to one side so that when
the broadcast airs, Pacifica listeners can at last have unfettered access to
the direct-source information that you and Mr. Solomon have been so
assiduously attempting to prevent.

I turn now to a quote from one of your most recent email attacks. I will also
address your position that these items are “central” to my case – a blatant
distortion and falsehood. The misspellings therein are yours and have been
left in place:

“As for evidence of Ruppert's fraudulent argument I have listed at least 4
items that are absolutely central to Ruppert's case that Ruppert has
utterly misrepresented.

“The Le Figaro piece, the Toronto Star piece, his baseless claim that
military intelligence officers are working inside at CNN (video on Ruppert's
cite), and his claim that the nonsenseical Vreeland scribbles are a detailed
warning and an accurate warning about the September 11 attacks. As for the
scribbles, Mark: Does the date September 11, 2002 appear anywhere on this
accurate warning? the dates 96-97 appear (if those numbers indicate dates)
and the dates 2007 and 2009 appear. And that's just the one major problem
with the dopcument that you Mark, apparently accept as

an accurate warning.

I have asked Ruppert's friends here to get him to defende these points. I get
no response. Nither you

nor any of your co-Ruppertites have offered a single defense of his on these
substantive issues.”

Point 1 – Le Figaro:

You state that I have misrepresented the Le Figaro piece. I assume here that
you are parroting the argument made by Bill Weinberg – a freelance writer.
Please note that Weinberg corrected his accusations and agreed that I had not
misrepresented the Le Figaro piece. This issue at that point was whether or
not Le Figaro had “confirmed” a statement by a hospital administrator that
bin Laden had been there.

The first thing I received regarding the Le Figaro was a translated version
of the story from a researcher which contained the following quote, “A member
of the administration of the American Hospital of Dubai confirms that the
public enemy number one stayed in the hospital from July 4th to July 14th.”

I then looked at the original French version which stated, “Un homme,
partenaire professionnel de la direction administrative de l'hôpital
américain de Dubaï, affirme que l'ennemi public numéro un a séjourné dans cet
établissement hospitalier du 4 au 14 juillet.

The verb in question here is affirmer.

A French speaking reader rose to the challenge by writing, “With respect to
the correct translation of the French word affirmer, je suggère que vous
vous trompez. Your mistake is to rely on a French-English dictionary, the
effect of which is to take a word out-of-context and give it the nearest
English equivalent. You would have been better advised to consult a French
dictionary. For example, here's the primary definition for ‘affirmer’ as
provided by Dictionnaire Universel Francophone (Hachette/Edicef, 1997):
Soutenir qu'une chose est vraie. [State that a thing is true.]

“When the definition is translated into English, it sounds a lot like
‘confirm,’ doesn't it?”

Weinberg wrote back to a fellow journalist on March 12, “There is no way I am
publishing a letter which is far longer than most of the blurbs I run in my
newsletter. Yeah, to an extent the affirm-confirm debate is a semantical one.”

Webster’s Dictionary defines “misrepresent” as: “to represent incorrectly:
to give a false, imperfect or misleading representation of.”

Therefore you have utterly failed on this assertion. And I can guarantee you
that, had you published this assertion on anything other than an e-mail list
you might well feel the same legal response that will be coming soon for
others.

The rest of your points are as feeble as this one. Nonetheless, for the
benefit of those who are slow to see, I will go through the exercise of
addressing them.

I am so fucking sick and tired of people taking unfair shots at FAIR (I

I am so fucking sick and tired of people taking unfair shots at Ruppert (and
since he right now is emotionalizing the people, pro and con, I will gladly
defend him again, and it seems that I may be required by conscience to do so
sometime soon in the loudest voice I can muster.)

This is my bottom line: The official story on 9/11 is bullshit. The public
has no idea. Even Sy Hersh, who has spent more time than anybody except
perhaps Ruppert investigating what happened has come to the same conclusion.
Ruppert is passionately shaking the trees, and where is everybody else, ye
radicals? What is this hostility to the spirit of investigation? How did
conspiracy theorist replace communist in the New McCarthyism?

The investigations are perculating. Don't get on the wrong side of history.
The official story is so full of shit that it is going to fall.

In sum, the burden of proof is with those in power. And to place it upon
each other is fucking pathetic bullshit. Excuse my French, but it is four
a.m. somewhere in a country called América, I am in a very bad mood, and as
I've told Ruppert time and time again, he can sometimes over-react to
criticisms, but now I wish to tell my friends Of The Left (most of whom are
probably to the center of me): When you attack Ruppert, you appear in the
photo as completely ridiculous. To me, anyway.

Just stop it! All of you! And get back to the work of investigation. If one
of us turns out to be corrupt, attack away. Nobody's alleged in the
slightest that Ruppert is corrupt or dishonest. Obviously, he is not. But if
one of us ocassionally overstates a case, well, okay, critique is good, but
a softer touch is required, and better done directly, face to face, without
all this public psychodrama. At least it should be tried first. I'm willing
to play referee if any parties wish to really speak, but I won't hold my
breath waiting for that.

The situation, today, is not easy. Most of us will soon be in the same
foxhole, under the same enemy fire. Obviously, I believe in criticism. But I
believe, most of all, in smart criticism. And the critiques against Ruppert
have so far fallen short of that bar. And you people who are criticizing
him: where is your critique of the official story of the massacre of
September 11th? Unless and until you do that, the rest is fluff.

credited the Bush administration with helping scuttle plans for a U.N.
inquiry into the Israeli attack on the Jenin refugee camp.

We could have been trapped in a very complicated situation, Sharon said in
an evening speech to the Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish organization.
Insisting there had been no massacre at Jenin, Sharon said President Bush,
Secretary of State Colin Powell and other U.S. officials had been influential
in helping get the fact-finding mission disbanded.

[CTRL] Industrial waste used as fertilizer

Fields of poison

Patty Martin uncovered a horrible truth about fertilizer in her hometown of
Quincy, Wash. Her discovery raises the question: What are Californians
spreading on their crops, lawns and gardens?

By Tom Gascoyne

excerpt

When Martin and the farmers first uncovered the practice--the selling of
industrial waste as fertilizer rather than paying to ship it and bury it in
hazardous-waste dumps--it was illegal. Since no one monitored the ingredients
in fertilizer, however, industries involved in chrome plating, iron smelting,
mining, steel works, electronic components, petroleum refining and even
coal-fired power plants were attracted by the lure of improving the bottom
line and opted for the cheaper manner of disposal.

As long as the hazardous waste included one of the three macronutrients used
by plants, nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium, or any of 13 micronutrients,
including zinc, copper and iron, the waste qualified as fertilizer, no matter
what other chemicals were in the mix.

According to Fateful Harvest, the practice was begun as early as 1954 by a
man named Dick Camp Sr., who ran a galvanizing shop in Tacoma. The process
produced a byproduct containing zinc that had no practical purpose for Camp.
He stored the stuff in barrels behind his shop. But the day he learned that
zinc sulfate was used as fertilizer for apple trees, a light bulb went on
above his head, and a new industry was born.

A CO-OPERATIVE board in New York City has prohibited new buyers from smoking
in their apartments, a move real estate experts described as the first of its
kind.

According to the New York Times, prospective new buyers at a 452-flat
building near the Lincoln Centre must declare whether they are smokers. Under
the regulations, a new owner who smokes could be evicted and forced to sell
his apartment.

It was showtime at the Apollo last night, but Bill Clinton left his saxophone home. 
Still, he brought the house down by introducing Michael Jackson, who performed three 
songs that had the crowd at the star-studded Democratic National Committee fund-raiser 
snapping their fingers. Jackson's gig ended with wild applause and a shower of blue, 
purple and gold confetti that covered the audience of 1,400 in the packed Harlem 
landmark. Among others who performed were Tony Bennett, k.d. lang, Reuben Blades and 
the Harlem Boys Choir. But the sweetest sounds might have been those from the cash 
register. Organizers said A Night at the Apollo raised an estimated $2.7 million for 
voter education and registration drives aimed particularly at minorities. Rep. Charles 
Rangel (D-Harlem) drew cheers when he hailed Clinton as the last elected president of 
the U.S. and said, It is our job to say we're not getting over Florida. So reports

unofficial estimates yesterday. They showed southeastern Democratic Party gains that 
appeared to easily outpace those of the rest of the state. In Philadelphia, 
Montgomery, Delaware and Bucks counties, nearly 17,000 voters switched their party 
registration to Democratic for this primary. At least 49,000 more voters enrolled as 
Democrats in those counties since November. Montgomery County led with a net 
Democratic switchover gain of 6,048 voters. Philadelphia had 5,000 switchover 
Democrats and registered 38,661 new Democrats. You go, Democrats!

Newsday reports, Democrats Wednesday kicked off a national voter registration drive 
in Manhattan and urged voters not to forget the outcome of the 2000 presidential 
election. 'This country belongs to you, but you have to claim it,' Clinton told the 
cheering crowd gathered outside of New York University for the noontime rally. 'We 
would win big for our side if all of you voted.' The Democratic kickoff of 'Every Vote 
Counts' is part of a national effort to court people of color, particularly African 
Americans and Latinos, who could be key to Democrats taking control of the House and 
the Senate this fall. Across the country, Democrats also launched voter registration 
drives at immigration and naturalization ceremonies and historically black colleges...

[CTRL] DEBKAfile: What Non-Palestinian Hand Carried out Adora Attack? (APFN)

2002-04-27 Thread Samantha L.

-Caveat Lector-

(From the APFN message board)

http://disc.server.com/discussion.cgi?id=149495article=24774

DEBKAfile Military Sources Ask:

What Non-Palestinian Hand Carried out Adora Attack?

27 April: Saturday morning, April 27, two terrorists burst into the Jewish
settlement of Adora, west of Hebron on the West Bank, shooting their way into
one home after another. They killed four Israeli civilians, two of them young
children, and wounded 13, 7 seriously.

Two hours later, Ms Anat Harari, 41, waiting at Barzilai hospital, Ashkelon,
for surgery on the bullet wounds that smashed her arm and shoulder, gave a
calm yet strange account of her experience.

From behind the window of her home, she saw a young man in Israeli military
fatigues and flak jacket approaching with an M-16 rifle. He looked just like
an Israeli soldier. When he was only a meter and a half away, he raised his
rifle and quite deliberately began shooting into the window at which she was
standing. He then went round the house, firing through more windows with the
same slow deliberation. Ms Harari was absolutely sure of his light skin and
non-Arab appearance.

A neighbor, a policeman from the Israeli station in Hebron, came running out
when he heard the gunfire. He was so certain the two gunmen he found were
Israelis that he addressed them in Hebrew. Only when they shot him did he
realize they were terrorists.

DEBKAfile ’s military sources add these fresh accounts to the evidence
gleaned from certain terrorist strikes in the last two months – starting with
the Kharmiyeh roadblock attack north of Ramallah in early March, in which 10
Israelis were killed. The shadow of an active, experienced non-Palestinian
presence has been discerned at work in subsequent Palestinian attacks on
Israeli targets.

Although there are theories about this alien identity, Israeli military
chiefs do not know for sure who they are. An exhaustive investigation
following the Kharmiyeh attack defined the three expert marksmen who executed
the deadly assault as professional enough to wipe out every clue to their
identity before disappearing without trace. The meager clues discovered do
not point to Palestinian hit men.

In certain subsequent shooting and bombing attacks in other places, the
execution was Palestinian, but not the way they were organized, the types of
explosives and other features.

Ms Harari is the first close-up eyewitness to testify to a non-Palestinian
presence in the Palestinian terror machine.

Israel’s military and security authorities prefer to keep the issue low-key
so as not to frighten the public. They are also reluctant to tip their hand.
Two of the possibilities floated are Hizballah and al Qaeda. Another is
European mercenaries – underworld contract killers, or European-trained
commandos. Some weeks ago, The London Daily Telegraph reported a request from
the Israeli Mossad to the British MI6 to find out if one of the marksmen at
Wadi Kharmiyeh was an Irish Republican Army operative. The question was put
in light of the tactics employed in the assault, including farsighted
intelligence and efficient escapes routes. The killers also had the foresight
to strew at the scene misleading evidence of weapons - other than those
actually employed.

This calculated pre-planning is a far cry from slipshod, hotheaded
Palestinian tactics.

Saturday’s Adora raid was carried out coolly and in broad daylight, the
settlement chosen is small and isolated, surrounded only by a plain mesh
fence with no Israeli military nearby and the killers made a clean escape -
leaving only the imprint of professional killers at work.

HOW THE ASSOCIATED PRESS (AP) GUTTED ITS VENEZUELAN COUP D'ETAT SCOOP  By
Jared Israel
[Posted 25 April 2002]
===

Does the Western media deliberately distort the news to serve the
interests of the foreign policy establishments of the NATO countries,
especially the US?

Based on much research, Emperor's Clothes says: yes, but not entirely.

Journalists sometimes - perhaps often - write accurate pieces. However,
when the issues are important, foreign policy stories get edited or
replaced, with the end result supporting a slant which is so consistently
in tune with the long-term goals of the US foreign policy elite that it
is possible, by analyzing news stories, to predict positions which will
be adopted by the US government.

That is partly how we made the predictions in the article, Why Does
Washington Want Afghanistan? Alas, those predictions have proven true.
(1)

Every day we test the above-stated thesis using the excellent Lexis
search engine. It enables us to scan millions of newspaper articles and
TV news transcripts in seconds. We can focus on particular dates or
periods of time. We can check for the presence or absence of certain
words or phrases. In this way, we can fashion an hypothesis and test it -
see if we are right about the line being taken by most or all the media.
Or we can just go fishing and see what we find.

On April 13th, the Associated Press published what is by far the best -
indeed, from what I've seen, the only - mainstream article reporting the
massive police terror against pro-Chavez Venezuelans after the recent
coup d'etat. It was a scoop.

Below I have posted this dispatch, written by Christopher Toothaker.

Soon after AP released out the Toothaker dispatch, they sent a new piece.
This covered some of the same ground but left out Toothaker's account of
police terror in poor neighborhoods. The new dispatch, by Andrew Selsky,
retained only one thing from the original: the first sentence of an
important paragraph. But while this sentence remained the same, the rest
of the paragraph was rewritten to reverse the meaning. More on that in a
moment.

The key thing is that all the original material in the Toothaker dispatch
had been removed. AP had gutted their scoop.

AP dispatches are sent out to news media outlets around the world. Thus
by April 14th, most of the important newspapers and TV stations had
received two very different AP dispatches. The first (Toothaker) was
detailed and refuted the official line on what had happened in Venezuela.
The second (Selsky) was general and supported the official line.

This is as close to a scientific experiment as one could fashion to test
our thesis that key media outlets censor themselves to support the US
establishment's agenda.

Below is Toothaker's AP dispatch. It is most informative. Indeed, it is
the only place, outside the pro-Chavez media and Websites critical of US
foreign policy (likes ours) where you will find anything challenging the
official story about what happened in Venezuela.

 The End Of America's Prestige
  Charley Reese


  A friend of mine once told a college class that nobody ever woke up in 476
  A.D. (the date historians define as the fall of the Roman Empire) and
said,
  Gosh, I'm in the Dark Ages.

  His point is plain enough. Transitions happen gradually, and the people
who
  live through them never realize what is happening. So it is with
Americans.
  We are living in the ruins of a once-great republic. Now an empire utterly
  devoid of moral authority, the United States has nothing left but its
  military power and its capacity to consume on credit.

  Where the world's great leaders will come from in the future, I don't
know,
  but they will not be Americans. Look at the Republican and Democratic
 parties
  and their top leaders. Mediocrity in full bloom. Weak men with ambition
but
  no principles. They are devious men, skilled at concealing their personal
  ambition in patriotic or compassionate rhetoric, depending on which
  constituency they are trying to bamboozle at the moment.

  I said earlier that Colin Powell's trip to the Middle East would answer
the
  question of who determines American foreign policy: America's elected
  leaders, or Israel and its powerful American lobby. The answer is Israel.

  Powell has disgraced himself. He did the ritual moaning and groaning about
  six Israelis killed by a suicide bomber but said nothing about the
hundreds
  of innocent Palestinians killed by the Israelis. As of this writing, he
has
  not even bothered to tour the devastated cities. He has not gone to
 Bethlehem
  to see the gratuitous and malicious damage to the civilian infrastructure.
 He
  has not gone to Jenin to smell the decomposing bodies buried under the
  rubble. He has not uttered a single word of public criticism of Israel,
 while
  Amnesty International, the United Nations Human Rights Commission and even
  Israeli human-rights groups have leveled blistering criticism at Israel's

  Instead, he acted as Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's errand boy by
  hopping over to Lebanon and Syria to ask them to restrain Hezbollah. I
wish
 I
  could have been Lebanon's president long enough to tell him off.

  I would have said to Powell: Where were you and the United States when
for
  more than 20 years Israel illegally occupied Lebanese territory in open
  defiance of U.N. Security Council resolutions? You never said one word;
you
  never lifted one finger to force the Israelis out. And now, you have the
 gall
  to demand of me that I chastise Hezbollah, whose brave young men did what
 you
  should have done  drove the Israelis out of Lebanon. If you cannot see the
  hypocrisy in your visit and in your request, then I truly pity you. Good
day,

  sir.

  The Syrian president should have told him the same thing, for the United
  States has never done one thing to persuade the Israelis to stop their
  illegal occupation of the Golan Heights.

  Robert Fisk, the great correspondent of The Independent in London, wrote
  recently: Mr. Powell's weakness, his failure of nerve, his cowardice are
 now
  likely to set off an Israeli-Palestinian war even more terrible than what
we

  have witnessed so far. ... Thanks to Mr. Powell, President Bush and Mr.
  Sharon, America's credibility has been shattered. Israel, it turns out,
does

  indeed run U.S. policy in the region. The Secretary of State sings from
the
  Israeli songbook.

  The repercussions of this will be unpleasant for the American people. One
  day, God willing, the American people will wake up and realize what a
 painful
  price has been exacted for allowing their politicians to sell their souls
to

  the Israeli lobby. I have to give the Israeli lobby credit. They
recognized
  the souls weren't worth much and bought them on the cheap.

  We had a president once who vowed to make the world safe for democracy. We
  now have one who is busily making the world unsafe for Americans and who
  doesn't have a clue as to how ridiculous he now appears in the eyes of the
  world.

US Forces In Philippines Facing CIA-Trained Abu Sayyaf Terrorists

By MICHAEL A. BENGWAYAN

[Insert: Abu Sayyaf was described in the 1990s as the most violent and
radical Islamist group in the Far East, using its CIA and ISI training to
harass, attack and murder Christian priests, wealthy non-Muslim
plantation-owners and merchants ]

excerpt

Basilan, Philippines (March 10, 2002) --- Unknown to most, the U.S. troops
especially the Special Forces now in this Abu Sayyaf lair, are facing not
merely a rag-tag band of bandits but hard core Central Intelligence Agency
(CIA)-trained fighters.

Most of the Abu Sayyaf leaders have fought Rambo-like in the deserts and
mountains of Afghanistan in the 1980s after receiving training from the CIA,
battling some of Russia¹s best fighting paratroopers, a reality the
Philippine military seemed to have forgotten.

MILAB Warning:Military Is Triggering Sleepers To KILL!
Wed Apr 24 14:37:27 2002
206.203.52.213

I have just finished a conversation with Kristina Webb and her friend Angie
in Indiana. Both have been victims of the military abductee program in which
they were abducted, brainwashed, and programmed in programs similar to CIA's
MKULTRA and MONARCH. Kris was also given specialized military battle training
as well. Both were programmed to come out UNDER MARTIAL LAW, when triggered
by the military through various means such as ELF frequencies, etc., to
follow orders and to KILL upon command.

Both Kris and Angie have struggled against this programming, through their
Christian faith and desire to overcome their insidious programmers/handlers.

When the battle to overcome became too intense for Angie, Kris flew up to
stand with her in prayer and assistance. Both have come under tremendous
attack since Kris joined in the battle with Angie. I witnessed this
personally as I spent hours on the phone with both of them. First one would
trance out for 5-10 minutes, then revive, and then the other. This
trancing out was apparently during attempts by the military to access them
and to give them orders, information, etc.

Both shared how their military controllers were accessing their programming
through unknown frequencies, giving them orders and becoming angry as they
refused to cooperate with their programmers. Kris admitted they were very
angry at her now for not cooperating with her programming.

Tuesday took a different turn, however. As they were out in public trying to
enjoy a normal time of relaxation, Kris was accessed by her programmers, and
they told her it was time for the sleepers to awaken and that the
Awakening had begun, and she was then told THREE TIMES TO BEGIN KILLING.
KILL...KILL...KILL!

She admitted that this time it was almost impossible to overcome her
programming, and they had to get home quickly.

I reminded her that we have suspected that something BIG may be coming down
by the end of April, since Wolfowitz had ordered the National Guard troops
and US military to the borders, both Canadian and Mexican, by the end of
April.

We had been warned by insiders that immediately prior to full blown martial
law, they would move to seal the borders and increase border security so that
Americans could not easily flee over the borders to relative safety into
Canada or to hidewaways in Mexico. So we have wondered IF special events
intended to deliberately trigger full blown martial law just MIGHT be ready
to come down soon.

Coupled with Kris' revelation that the military is apparently signaling their
Manchurian candidates (programmed MILAB sleepers/killers) to AWAKE and
follow orders at this time, one must question IS IT TIME???

Continue to pray for Kris and Angie to be set free. And for all the other
MILABS programmed to kill under martial law, that God will block their
programming and give them the power to be set free through Jesus Christ.
With God, ALL things are possible.  He whom the Son sets free, is FREE
INDEED. Prayer is a powerful weapon!

[CTRL] In Defense Of Cynthia McKinney by Carol Schiffler

In Defense Of Cynthia McKinney
By Carol Schiffler
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
4-23-2

Dealing with Ann Coulter's post-September 11 blathering was bad enough. But
we could forgive Ann - just the teensiest bit - because she had just lost her
best friend, Barbara Olson, and besides, even on a good day, Ann Coulter is
clearly insane.

But now it appears that the Bush administration's Propaganda Dominatrix has
some competition in Kathleen Parker, a woman who has all the feral charm of a
wolverine in heat and, apparently, all the reasoning ability of a clam. I am
referring, of course, to her recent attacks on one of the few responsible
adults in Congress, Cynthia McKinney.

Fortunately for us, Ms. Parker's arguments are completely devoid of
substance, thereby offering us ample opportunity to just shoot the living
hell out of them.

The first half of her latest column, 'McKinney's Minions March to a Different
Drummer Indeed,' is entirely devoted to hurling personal epithets and
therefore can be dismissed in its entirety.

The second half, however, contains her great 'Aha!' moment, her stunning
revelation, the payoff for grueling seconds of investigative journalism. For
it is here we discover that Cynthia McKinney - gasp! - received a campaign
contribution from Abdurahman Alamoudi, 'founder and former executive director
of the American Muslim Council,' and a staunch 'axis-of-evil' kind of guy if
there ever was one.

It is a good thing for Ms. Parker that her fans are not the sharpest knives
in the drawer. If they were, perhaps they might discover that this same group
of swarthy characters endorsed - gasp! - George W. Bush for president. Yes,
it is true. The Hamas-and-Hezbollah-for-lunch-bunch were some of Dubya's
biggest fans. At least they were before September 11. (As an interesting, and
sadly ironic, aside, the primary reason the American Muslim Council supported
Bush was because he challenged the use of 'secret' evidence at the second
presidential debate.)

Ms. Parker, I am sure, would be quick to point out that George the Lesser
returned Alamoudi's campaign contribution, (and, yes, he received one), and
good for him because it would have looked really bad if he kept his after
Hillary returned hers, (first, by the way). But - BUT - you have to wonder
why, three days after September 11, the Global Village Idiot trotted out none
other than Abdurahman Alamoudi at the National Cathedral prayer service for
the victims of the attack. Surely, of the estimated six million American
Muslims, he could have found one single Islamic leader that would have been,
shall we say, in better taste.

And then there is the matter of long-time Bush supporter, Grover Norquist.
According to the October 4 issue of the Boston Phoenix, Norquist's lobbying
firm, Janus-Merritt Strategies LLC, was officially registered as a lobbyist
for the Islamic Institute as well as for Abdurahman Alamoudi.

Public records show that Alamoudi has done more than $20,000 worth of
business with Norquist's firm. Which, by Parker's own twisted logic, makes
fellow conservative, Grover Norquist, about twenty times the terrorist-lover
that Ms. McKinney supposedly is. And I have yet to hear that John Ashcroft
has put Janus-Merritt Strategies LLC on the terrorist watch list.

Astute readers have already made the point that all Cynthia McKinney did was
call for a thorough investigation of September 11 - something the Bush
administration has been loathe to do. The fact is, that upon setting up a
committee for the explicit purpose of investigating the tragedy, the very
first thing Bush and company did was to clip the wings of the investigators.
Their directive, in the end, was not to find out what went wrong, but
instead, to merely make recommendations for preventing future incidents.

Now I ask you - what earthly sense does that make? In essence, Bush was
telling the committee to make suggestions on how to fix something when the
cause of that broken 'something' was not yet determined. This is sensational
public relations, but thank goodness George decided to become a politician
and not a brain surgeon. (I don't know what's causing your headache, Mrs.
Dettweiler, but let's just operate on your prefrontal lobe and see if that
does the trick.)

George Bush, for all his posturing and Rambo-speak, has spent about as much
time impeding a thorough investigation as he has vacationing and napping -
which is to say, quite a bit - and rightfully, this has led many, many people
to wonder just what the heck he is up to. This is a logical question, not a
'delusional' one, and Ms. McKinney is to be commended for having the courage
to ask it.

As for Ms. Parker, gutlessly spewing the GOP party line, I would like to
point out that not liking the politics someone who is asking uncomfortable
questions does not invalidate the argument. Combining a facetious line of
questioning with sledge hammer innuendo, Kathy Dearest is trying to have

Subject: TWILIGHT'S LAST GLEAMING

Secret Military Missions Underway
##

Without jeopardizing the military men involved ,I will not mention the
branches of service or the units,or the locations they are going to.

Around 48 hrs ago certain USA military units deployed to a few secret
locations around the globe.

( This is why the press has been told to be quite.
It is the quite before the storm.)


Some units of the military have the capacity of an invasionary force, but
others may be involved in a massive conventional rocketing and bombing.

What is about to happen may be the real reason Bush's Press PR lady resigned
and went back to Texas.

( The move may appear to be too anti-Israel or anti-Muslim or some other
situation that conflicts with her personal beliefs. My guess is she may
also know that this may go nuclear and /or maybe too massive and cruel
if it is only conventional.In that event she then wants to be home with
her family. Keep an eye out for more resignations or a sudden flux of
vacations or disappearances of political persons in Washington.DC.)

From what I have heard the events that will transpire soon have the
possiblity to esculate to at least a regional nuclear conflict.

Hopefully Russia and China will stay out of it.

I advise everyone that has not prepared for World War #3 - or a mini-version
of it-to start preparing. This thing is warming up and may go hot -at
least to a limited thermo nuclear exchange- by May 1st.

One of the units that deployed is ONLY used in thermo nuclear warfare.
( This may only be a pre-cautionary measure because they are really taking
a chance. Hopefully they will get by with this without too much reaction)

One thing is for certain: A stepped-up massive conventional military assault
will occur soon.

If we are lucky they are only silently saber rattling for Chinese and
Russian satellite surveilance-to keep the Bear and Dragon from reacting to
the existing situations that will esculate in two particular regions.

As a pre-caution I advise all to stock up on survival supplies and find
strategic underground locations you may possibly have to to flee to- at
least 80 miles up wind of any target, base or city. You also need to
organize your families and communities to defend the homeland if the
inevitable occurs!

They are truely walking on ice with this one.

I was warned not to mention this but feel it is unfair to leave the true
Patriot Community wide open and off-guard.

Prepare to possibly save yourselves and the country.

I also advise watching un-Patriotic / anti-American groups in your
communities and reporting any strange unusual movements to the police.

I only hope and pray that this stays conventional and also regional and
does not reach America in any form.

Start Praying.

WASHINGTON (AP) - White House counselor Karen Hughes said Tuesday she's resigning from

Hughes has worked for Bush since his days as Texas governor and is one of his closest

Later this summer, I'm going to be changing the way in which I serve the president. 
My husband and I have made a difficult but we think right decision to move our family

Our roots are there, she said. I guess we're a little homesick.

Ruppert-Basher David Corn misrepresented what McKinney said.  What a surprise.

What McKinney said:

http://hamilton.indymedia.org:8081/front.php3?article_id=1487group=webcast

In a recent interview with a Berkeley, Calif., radio station, McKinney said:
We know there were numerous warnings of the events to come on September
11th. ... What did this administration know and when did it know it, about
the events of September 11th? Who else knew, and why did they not warn the
innocent people of New York who were needlessly murdered? ... What do they
have to hide?

McKinney declined to be interviewed Thursday, but she issued a statement
saying: I am not aware of any evidence showing that President Bush or
members of his administration have personally profited from the attacks of
9-11. A complete investigation might reveal that to be the case.

Subject: MARY TODD POPPED HONEST ABE - THEY NEED LIGHT AND MORE

X-Priority: 3 (Normal)

Status: U



THE GUN THAT SHOT ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND IS DISPLAYED ON THE WALL OF FORDS

THEATER TODAY IS A WOMAN'S DERRINGER WITH A WHITE PEARL HANDLE!!



Would anyone (especially a man in the 1860s) in their right mind try to

kill the President of the United States with a one shot small pistol

normally carried by a woman? Six shooter revolvers existed in the 1860s

and if one were to plot to kill a President, one would logically have

more than one bullet in the barrel.



Mary Todd Lincoln, like many women in Washington during the American

Civil War carried a derringerBut Mary Todd also owned a derringer

with a white pearl handlethat fact is in the National Archives. And

she waved, flashed and flaunted her pearly pop gun often on the streets

of Washington D.C. and The White House.



Lincoln was shot on the left side of his head and Mary Todd was left

handed. Mary Todd was barred from attending the funeral and two armed

guards made sure she did not leave her room for 10 days after the

shooting that fact is in the National Archives.



Mary Todd Lincoln was denied the normal customary widowers pension three

times by the U.S. Congress (Today the pension is automatic).



Mary Todd like so many high society persons in Washington D.C. during

the 1860s was an opium addict... that fact is in the Library of

Congress. Her drug supplier also was a part time actor who doubled for

the real full time actor John Wilkes Booth when he had multiple

appearances on the same day in two different cities.



Abraham had the Treasury Department print money and that really

pissed-off the Rothschilds and others because they did not want any

competition with money they printed via their private company called the

Federal Reserve Bank. Lincoln had to go because he betrayed his

family but the plot was to discredit him by revealing that he had an

affair with a Hapsburg illegitimate offspring and the royal sex resulted

in two children.



The part time actor (Mary's catnip boy) was sent to Ford's theater to

inform the President that an important message was waiting for him at

the War Department. The plot then was to knock-out Abe and smuggle him

(An empty carriage was found at the back of Ford's Theater the night of

the shooting) onto a sea vessel, drug him for several days and return

him to Washington in a daze as the press zeroed in on the drugged

President, the facts and pictures (there are many) of his illegitimate

family would be released. The President would have to resign and Mary

Todd was part of this plot.



However Stanton and the Rothschilds underestimated the revenge of a

delirious First Lady strung-out on opium who has just discovered that

her hubby had popped a secret, illegal yet royal family. Now Mary

Todd was also going to do some popping.



As the part time imposter actor opened the door to the suite at Ford's

Theater to summon the President, he was shocked and horrified to see

Mary Todd pointing and firing her woman's derringer into her husband's

head.



Mary Todd was sitting to the right of Lincoln. With her left hand

she was able to reach behind Lincoln's back very naturally without any

strain and point the gun to the lower left skull area of Lincoln's

head. Linda, I and others believe Abe probably had his head on Mary's

left shoulder and he was resting or was asleep thus making the shot

even easier. With Abe resting his head on

Mary's left shoulder, the right side of his lower skull was not

accessible to Mary's left hand with the gun.



The imposter actor panicked because he knew his buddies downstairs would

blame him for shooting the President - and that was not the game plan at

all or he was set-up as the fall guy / patsy from the beginning. Either

way going back downstairs was not a good idea so the drug pusher jumped

from the Presidential box seats into the third act of the play at Ford's

Theater and broke his leg.



The term Break A Leg used in the theater comes from Booth's (the

fake one) flying leap into the third act of Our American Cousin

performed at Fords Theater on April 14, 1865.



The real John Wilkes Booth had no choice but to escape on the first ship

to India because his career and reputation were blasted away by a junkie

and her wacked out and desperate supplier claiming to be Booth. The fake

Booth escaped to Grandbury Texas and did some acting but his alcoholism

and blabbering mouth resulted in his murder by arsenic poisoning in

Enid, Oklahoma.



Many people from the North and South wanted the fake Booth to be silent

one way or another

Atrocities of the Mainstream Media
Detective Watson on the Case of Syndicated Columnist Crime
Part 1 - James S. Robbins of the National Review

Welcome to the first instalment of what no doubt promises to be a lengthy
series. Initially, we focus on the inane rant of NRO contributor and
'national security analyst' James S. Robbins. Here I dissect his pathetic
piece of 'journalism' concerning the recently released French book 'The
Appalling Fraud' by Thierry Meyssan. This book questions whether a Boeing 757
really did hit the Pentagon on September 11th, and also explores other
evidence concerning government prior knowledge and involvement in the
terrorist attacks. Before we begin, let me state that I do not believe
anything other than a Boeing 757 hit the Pentagon on September 11th. However,
I also believe that people who ask questions and present evidence suggesting
otherwise should be debated in a mature manner, in an open forum. Their
claims should be thoroughly investigated and their character treated with
dignity. Surprise, surprise, our lapdog global mainstream media has treated
anyone who presents such evidence like they are promoting pedophilia. Oh but,
I forgot, it's judges, major universities and, you guessed it, the mainstream
media that are actually promoting pedophilia.

The '9/11 denial' article in full can be found at

We Come For Peace
By Rep. Cynthia McKinney
[Remarks to April 20, peace rally in Washington, DC]

We come here today from the four corners of this nation.

We are blacks and whites, Latinos, Asians, and Native Americans;
Christians, Muslims, and Jews; gay, lesbian, and straight; immigrants
and native-born Americans; rich and poor.

Here today are representatives of all sections of society: students,
union members . . .

union members on strike . . .

homeless veterans . . .

and everyday warriors on the battlefield for justice.

But despite all our differences, we are here today . . . one
community with one thing in common: a desire to see the restoration
of the true ideals of America.

America -- where fundamental rights to vote, speak, and practice
religion mean something.

A country that has a democratic form of government, a democratic way
of life and a nation in which all can participate freely in political
activity and share in the abundance of its harvest.

But America today is still a far cry from the noble Republic founded
upon those words: All men are created equal.

We have not dealt well with our diversity and too many of our
citizens suffer needlessly.

Each day millions of Americans suffer poverty, hunger, the sting of
discrimination . . .

arbitrary arrest, racial profiling, and brutality from rogue police . . .
inadequate health care, drug abuse, and unemployment.

For the millions of poor Americans, ours is not a just society.

More than 31 million Americans live in poverty. One in every six of
our children live in poverty.

Some of our nation's poor even sleep each night on the steps of the
buildings just visible from the bedrooms of the White House.

And sadly, many of those who sleep on America's streets are our
veterans from US wars . . .

Sadly, nor is ours a democratic society.

In November 2000, the Republicans stole from America our most
precious right of all: the right to free and fair elections.

Florida Governor Jeb Bush and his Secretary of State Katherine
Harris, created a phony list of convicted felons--57,700 to be exact--
to scrub thousands of innocent people from the state's voter rolls.
Of the thousands who ultimately lost their vote through this scrub of
voters, 80% were African-American, mostly Democratic Party voters.
Had they voted, the course of history would have changed. Instead,
however, Harris declared Bush the victor by only 537 votes.

Now President Bush occupies the White House, but with questionable
legitimacy.

But however he got there, his Administration is now free to spend one
to four billion dollars a month on the war in Afghanistan .
. .

free to cut the high deployment overtime pay of our young service men
and women fighting in that war . . .

free to propose drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Reserve
National Park . . .

free to stonewall on the Enron and Energy Task Force investigations . . .

free to revoke the rules that keep our drinking water free of
arsenic . . .

free to get caught in Venezuela . . .

and free to propose laws that deny our citizens sacred freedoms
cherished under the Constitution.

We must dare to remember all of this.

We must dare to debate and challenge all of this.

And that is why we are here today.

We come here today to chart a new course for our communities and for
America.

To fight against bigotry, we stand together as one and we must.

To fight against injustice, we stand together as one and we must.

To fight against poverty, we stand together as one and we must.

To fight against the destruction of our environment, we stand
together as one and we must.

To wage peace instead of war, we stand together as one and
we must.

Because, through our efforts, I believe we can once again, make
America a force for good in the world.

We, as the world's most powerful nation have a responsibility to act
in defense of the weak and to protect them from harm.

We failed in Rwanda.

We failed in Srebrenica.

We failed in East Timor.

And now, as we speak, we fail in Jenin.

Let us dedicate ourselves here today, to join together as one.

When one person stands up and speaks out for the suffering of the
weak, a tiny ripple of hope is created.

When numerous people stand and demand justice for the multitude who
have been forgotten, a strong current of possibilities is
created.

When an entire community stands up and demands change a mighty wave
of freedom and justice is created.

We gather here today and we speak with one voice . . .

And let us remember, that one person can make a ripple.

One ripple can make a movement.

One movement can make a voice.

And one voice can make mighty change.

Let us leave here today and make the change this country needs to be
loved and respected around the world once again.

And remember one thing: Register and Vote!

[CTRL] 4 of Chavez's Generals Killed in Helicopter Crash (APFN fwd)

Frenchman
Venezuela crash...my foot !
Sat Apr 20 15:24:15 2002
62.147.79.94

From the BBC

The newly appointed head of the Venezuelan air force, General Luis Acevedo,
has been killed with several other officers in a helicopter crash.
The accident, which occurred late on Friday in mountains to the north-east of
the capital, Caracas, has been blamed on bad weather.

General Acevedo was promoted just days ago as Hugo Chavez resumed the
presidency of Venezuela, following a failed coup that removed him from power
for two days.

The general had been returning to Caracas from a ceremony at a naval academy
when the Super Puma helicopter crashed and burst into flames.

Military coup

Another helicopter carrying armed forces chief General Lucas Rincon was
caught in the same bad weather and had to make an emergency landing.

General Rincon said he and all the other passengers on board were safe.

Three other generals travelling with General Acevedo were killed in the
crash. Generals Pedro Torres Finol, Julio Ochoa and Rafael Quintana were all
were members of the air force's newly reorganised high command.

The fire brigade, civil defence and the National Guard reached the scene
early on Saturday and began to identify the bodies.

Just over a week ago a group of Venezuelan military officers launched a
failed coup against the president.

The coup leaders toppled Mr Chavez after 17 people were killed in a massive
protest march against his rule, but he was reinstated two days later as
loyalist officers rebelled and civilian supporters took to the streets.

Grassy Knoll Society: From Camelot to Crawford
April 18, 2002
By warren pease

Which is easier to believe: That the laws of physics which have governed
objects in motion since the big bang were suspended for a few seconds on a
single afternoon in Dallas 39 years ago to allow a single, mediocre marksman
to kill a president? Or that there was another rifleman?

Last week Georgia Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D - Courage) broke the code. In a
radio interview, she asked the forbidden question concerning Sept. 11: Why is
the Bush administration stonewalling, and why has it asked Senate
investigators to back off? In short, is Bush Inc. trying to hide something?
If so, what did they know and when did they know it?

In a statement intended to clarify her statements and call off the dogs,
McKinney said, We hold thorough public inquiries into rail disasters, plane
crashes and even natural disasters. Why then does the administration remain
steadfast in its opposition to an investigation into the biggest terrorism
attack in history?

She added that international news organizations have been reporting for
months of indications that the Bush administration had received warnings
about the attacks and failed to act on them.  Naturally, she's being savaged
by the right, the center and the left. Paul Begala, the latest
Democratic white knight to turn yellow from the toxic after-effects of
radical spine-ectomy, even did a ritual dive under the table on Crossfire to
symbolically distance himself from McKinney's comments. It was a gesture so
perfect as a metaphor for media harlotry that it was impossible to
see it without assuming that Paul gave co-host and right-wing fop Tucker
Carlson's thigh a couple of quick squeezes and whispered salacious promises
involving champagne and chains and mirrors in a posh hotel later that
evening.

The grassy knoll

Ari Fleischer, presidential spokesdork and owner of the second best smirk in
the western world, dismissed McKinney and those who share her point of view
as members of the grassy knoll society. This refers to an area flanking Elm
Street in Dallas from which an alleged second shooter
opened fire on John F. Kennedy in 1963. Although many witnesses to the
assassination say they heard shots coming from the grassy knoll -- even some
Dallas cops charged in that direction looking for the shooter -- the official
story pins the blame on a single rifleman firing from a sixth floor window of
the old Texas Schoolbook Depository. Ironically, the building now serves as a
museum dedicated to advancing the official story.

But here's the thing. Playing the conspiracy nut card is a time-honored way
to discredit the unofficial points of view. Unfortunately, there are any
number of nuts who do, in fact, give serious conspiracy investigators a bad
name. There are also a lot of very sane profiteers, such as Art Bell,
who are making a ton of money peddling conspiracy theories. But just because
these nuts and shysters exist doesn't mean there are no conspiracies.

While most conspiracy theories -- notably those involving Area 51, Roswell,
or alien abduction -- are viewed by officialdom as merely bread and circuses
for today's gullible junk science consumers, those that challenge important
official truths are dealt with harshly.

One of those official truths is that conspiracies only happen in far-away
places and that, in America, politics is characterized by reasonable actions
taken by reasonable men elected to office by reasonable voters. There are no
conspiracies to remove elected officials in America, and
therefore any political assassinations must be planned and carried out by
single, mentally unbalanced individual with a grudge and a fixation --
usually called the one lone nut theory.

Famous lone nuts include a bunch of guys with three names and another with
one name squared: Lee Harvey Oswald, James Earl Ray, John Wilkes Booth,
Sirhan Sirhan.

The single-bullet theory

It 1963, it was deemed necessary to preserve the fiction that, in America,
conspiracies don't kill politicians, lone nuts do. And when the facts in the
Kennedy case failed to support this essential construct, a new theory was
invented to fit the facts.

So Arlen Specter, then a young lawyer working for the Warren Commission and
now a US Senator from Pennsylvania, devised a scenario so ridiculous that it
required complete suspension of the laws of physics, along with even the
barest modicum of logic and skepticism.

To fit the official story, Oswald had to have acted alone. But a man named
Abraham Zapruder had filmed the assassination with his home movie camera and,
in the process, established a precise time frame for the sequence of events.
Investigators proved it was physically impossible to get off more than three
shots with the alleged assassination weapon -- a

In a letter to House Speaker Dennis Hastert, Bush wrote, In the wake of the failed 
attempt to overthrow President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, I too have taken time to 
reflect on my actions in office. In the course of my Presidential campaign, I made 
many promises that I have failed to keep. These included preserving the Social 
Security Trust Fund and giving seniors a prescription drug benefit. I also promised to 
restore honor and integrity to the White House, by imposing the strictest ethical 
standards on my appointees, including those from Enron. I promised the world a 
'humble' foreign policy, and peace in the Middle East. By these standards, I believe I 
have presided over a failed Presidency, and have therefore decided the only way I can 
honor my promises to the American people is to resign.

__Brock Reveals the 'Mighty Wurlitzer' of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy

With all that ideological money, institutional heft, coordination, and credentialing, 
the right has perfected what the CIA used to call a 'mighty Wurlitzer' - a propaganda 
machine that can hone a fact or a lie, broadcast it, and have it echoed and recycled 
in Fox News commentary, in Washington Times news stories, in Wall Street Journal 
editorials, by myriad right-wing pundits, by Heritage seminars and briefing papers, 
and in congressional hearings and speeches. Privatization of Social Security, vouchers 
for school, Vince Foster's supposed murder, Hillary's secret sex life, you name it - 
the right's mighty Wurlitzer can ensure that a message is broadcast across the county, 
echoed in national and local news, and reverberated in the speeches of respectable 
academics as well as rabid politicians... There is nothing on the progressive side of 
town remotely competitive with this. There is no progressive TV network and few 
progressive pundits. So writes Bob Borosage in the American Prospect
http://www.prospect.org/print/V13/8/borosage-r.html

At Democrats.com, we've been the ONLY people hollering about the Bush administration's

Dana Milbank, has ever-so-gently reported on Karl Rove's standard operating procedure. 
Recent scrubs include the removal of interruptions by hecklers when Bush spoke in 
Knoxville, and adding a footnote when Bush proposed making the death tax permanent. 
Milbank also noted Bush's market-rattling remarks in Japan about the devaluation 
issue, and his claim the US and Japan had been allies for a century and a half. 
Finally, he cites Ari Fleischer's warning Americans need to watch what they

[CTRL] Musharraf may stay even if he loses vote

2002-04-19 Thread Samantha L.

-Caveat Lector-

(Musharraf has boldly called for a referendum on whether or not he should
remain in office.  He expects to win, otherwise, he says, he might not have
taken the risk of calling for the referendum.  LOL!  He refused to answer
whether or not he would leave if the vote went against him.  He sounds like
Shrub's kind of guy.)

[CTRL] Israel: the generals grand design by Tanya Reinhart

2002-04-18 Thread Samantha L.

-Caveat Lector-

http://www.opendemocracy.net/forum/document_details.asp?CatID=127DocID=1225

Israel: the generals’ grand design
Tanya Reinhart

[Tanya Reinhart, is professor of linguistics and cultural studies at Tel Aviv
University and the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands. Her political
writings appear regularly in Yediot Aharonot. ]

Sharon’s present strategy of fighting the Palestinians to the last and
imposing a new regional order follows the long-term vision of Israel’s
political generals. For them, the failure of the Oslo peace process was not
just inevitable, but a goal.

--

--

(excerpt)

In conventional political discourse, Israel’s recent attacks on Palestinian
civilians, villages, and governmental institutions are described as
“retaliatory acts”. They are justified as a “response” to the latest wave
of terror attacks on Israeli civilians. In fact, these “retaliatory
measures” are part of a systematic assault on the Palestinian Authority that
was carefully prepared long before the current “war on terrorism.” As far
back as October 2000, at the outset of the Palestinian uprising and before
the terror attacks had started, military circles in Israel had prepared
detailed operative plans to topple Arafat and the Palestinian Authority.

In a statement published in Israel’s major newspaper, Ha’aretz, on 18
October 2001, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon declared, “Oslo [the peace accord]
is not continuing; there won’t be Oslo; Oslo is over.” Oslo is now widely
considered in Israel to be “an historical mistake.” Since March of 2001, the
Israeli media has openly discussed plans to re-establish full military
control of the territories.

Alex Fishman, the senior security correspondent for Yediot Aharonot, has
explained that, after the Oslo accords, “The IDF (The Israeli Defence Force,
or Israeli army) regarded the occupied territories as if they were one
territorial cell,” and that this placed some constraints on the IDF and
enabled a certain amount of freedom for the Palestinian Authority and the
Palestinian population.

Now, however, the army has returned to a concept of military administration
that prevailed in the pre-Oslo years. They planned to divide the occupied
territories into sixty-four isolated cells, each of which will be assigned a
special military force, and “the local commander will have freedom to use his
discretion” as to when and whom to shoot – the aim being to isolate
Palestinian communities from each other, in preparation for a full takeover.

The apparent change in the official Israeli position on Oslo did not occur as
a result of Palestinian terrorism. The first Palestinian attack on Israeli
civilians in the current uprising did not occur until 3 November 2000, in a
Jerusalem market. Yet a month earlier, on 15 October, 2000, a document
prepared by the security services at the request of then-Prime Minister Ehud
Barak stated that “Arafat, the person, is a severe threat to the security of
the state [of Israel] and the damage which will result from his disappearance
is less than the damage caused by his existence” (details of this document
were published in Ma’ariv on 6 July, 2001).

The operative plan to topple Arafat, known as “Fields of Thorns,” had been
prepared as far back as 1996, and was then updated in early 2000 once the
Intifada began, as reported by Amir Oren in Ha’aretz on 23 November, 2001.
The “Field of Thorns” plan includes everything that Israel is currently
executing and more. (For details of the “Field of Thorns” plan see Anthony
Cordesman, “Peace and War: Israel versus the Palestinians. A second
Intifada?” Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), December
2000, and its summary in Shraga Eilam, “Peace With Violence or Transfer” in
Between The Lines, December 2000.)

Starting in the Autumn of 2000, politicians and functionaries in then Prime
Minister Barak’s circles worked on preparing public opinion for the eventual
toppling of Arafat. A key step in that propaganda war occurred on 20 November
2000, when Nahman Shai, then public-affairs coordinator of the Barak
government, released a sixty-page document prepared by Barak’s aide, Danny
Yatom, titled “Palestinian Authority non-compliance… A record of bad faith
and misconduct.” Informally referred to as the “White Book,” this document
argued that Arafat’s present crime – “orchestrating the Intifada” – was
just the latest in a long chain of evidence that showed, it alleged, that
Arafat had never deserted the “option of violence and struggle.”

Here is an example of the sort of evidence the “White Book” cites: “As early
as Arafat’s own speech on the White House lawn, on13 September, 1993, there
were indications that for him, the D.O.P. [declaration of principles] did not
necessarily signify an end to the

This is one of the best sardonic commentaries on Bush BuzzFlash has read.

http://www.manilatimes.net/national/2002/apr/16/opinion/20020416opi5.html


SOUTHPAW
By Inday Espina-Varona
Georgie goes to school 
 
 
  
The word from Washington is, that Georgie, the Texan princeling who so badly yearns to 
be the man Dad wants him to be, is finally hitting the books and doing his homework. 

About time. Half a dozen chiefs of states have just told Colin Powell the world is not 
behooved to behave like patriotic Americans. Ariel Sharon and Yasser Arafat, not to 
mention rich Saudis and Bahrainis, have just shown how little Georgie knows about 
Abraham’s children. Even the Northern Alliance warlords have taken to killing each 
other again, in full view yet of their blonde peacekeepers. 

But friends will tell you Georgie was a late bloomer. So perhaps we should just say a 
prayer of thanks that Georgie is slowly learning, that hi-tech war toys and chiseled 
patrician features are not enough to earn genuine respect. 

No, change that. Let us give thanks that Georgie is finally realizing that respect 
from equals may be more rewarding than the groveling that merely masks smirks and 
dirty fingers, or the condescending prattle dished out by shifty-eyed father figures 
like Donald Rumsfeld or Dick Cheney, the latter well on his way to becoming a 
caricature of a simpering, vanishing Alfred Hitchcock. 

Maybe one day soon a li’l ol steel magnolia will march up the White House steps, brush 
aside those Secret Service hunks, sweep into the Oval Office, dump tomes on that 
glistening desk, and lecture Georgie on the dangers of being such a pompous dunce. 

Hopefully, one of those books will be a copy of the US Constitution, now under siege 
by both terrorists and the protectors of the people. Maybe Georgie, now that he’s in 
between sophomoric speeches, could be stirred into studying the real things that make 
his country great — like the belief that all men (and nations) are created equal, 
despite differences in color, creed, facial hair, or per capita incomes. 

He just has to look in his own backyard. While he’s at it, Georgie could pull Ali 
Flietcher from the White House Press Room for a review of simple English. 

Spell coup, boys. Never mind the Frenchy appendage. The simple verb says, “overturn, 
upset.”  The longer noun means “a sudden decisive exercise of force in politics; esp: 
the violent overthrow or altercation of an existing government by a small group.” 

Now spell Venezuela. Spell Chavez. You remember Chavez, Georgie? PRESIDENT Hugo 
Chavez, chief of state of an independent republic, and one elected in a democratic 
manner, was arrested last week by a small cabal of generals and taken to an island. 
While all that was underway, the same cabal installed Pedro Carmona, the leader of a 
band of oligarchs, as president, and started a manhunt for Chavez’s aides and 
supporters. A move presumably made to quell violence snowballed into something Latin 
Americans thought lay buried in their collective nightmare – dissolution of the 
National Assembly and the Supreme Court amid a vague promise of elections a year 
hence. 

Spell commitment. Oops. Your turn, Ali. Figures. If you can’t spell, you probably 
can’t define. A commitment, gentlemen, is an agreement or pledge. 

In case your advisers haven’t told you yet, Georgie, the US signed last year the new 
Democracy Charter of the Organization of American States. It says, among other things, 
that all members of the group would act strongly against military coups. 

All OAS members condemned the Venezuelan coup and refused to recognize the new 
government — all but one – the US, whose president (that’s you, Georgie) loves to 
declaim on moral rectitude (no, Ali, rectum is a different word). 

Do you remember what you said, Georgie? 

It ain’t a coup. It ain’t a coup because he deserves it. He deserves it because I, 
Georgie, don’t like his mug and his pals. And because Uncle Otto Reich says he’s bad 
and you don’t argue with a man who saved Nicaragua from the Sandinistas. And because 
Dad’s amigos aren’t too fond of ex-parachutists who threaten to close a third of our 
oil taps. And because I know how to spell hegemony, and it means you can be an SOB but

[CTRL] Eyewitness to the Venezuelan coup

2002-04-16 Thread Samantha L.

-Caveat Lector-

http://www.anncol.com/april/1304EYEWITNESS_THE_PLOT.htm

News Agency New Colombia
Associated member of FELAP - Latin American Federation of Journalists
[EMAIL PROTECTED]www.anncol.com

EYEWITNESS: THE PLOT WAS WELL PREPARED
Is the resignation of Venezuelan President Chavez due to a popular uprising,
as the media make it appear? Nothing seems less true! An eye-witness account
from Maximilien Averliaz, a leader of the popular movement that supports
Chavez, directly from Caracas.

[This eyewitness account was taken from the web site of the Belgian Workers
Party]

13.04.2002 (By Maximilien Averlaiz, Caracas) The plot appears to have been
well prepared. It all started with a call for a general strike for Wednesday,
April 10, launched by an alliance between the organization of the bosses
FEDECAMARAS and the corrupt union the Venezuelan Workers Central (CTV). The
big privately owned media helped create a climate of tension. They agitated
the population against the government. The strike, however, for the most part
failed. It occurred only in a few places. In the other places, the bosses
purely and simply closed their factories in such a way that the workers were
unable to work.

After the first day of the strike, FEDECAMARAS and the CTV prolonged their
action for an indeterminate time period, while calling for a demonstration
April 11. During this reactionary demonstration, large groups of partisans of
President Chavez gathered at Miraflores to defend his “Bolivarian
Revolution.” The poor people came down from the neighborhood on the edge of
the city toward the government building to support their president.

Chaven has always guaranteed the right to demonstrate to the opposition, all
the while appealing to his partisans to refuse to respond to provocations and
denouncing the crass media manipulation.

While Chavez was making a radio talk Thursday evening, the second phase of
the destabilization plan was unleashed. The leaders of the right-wing
opposition directed their demonstration toward Miraflores, where the
progressives had assembled. Their aim was clear: blood must flow.

The government gave an order to the National Guard to place itself between
the two groups to avoid battles. At this moment, some elite sharpshooters
began to fire on the pro-Chavez demonstrators. They had been posted on the
tops of high buildings, at 200 meters (650 feet) from the crowd. The first
two deaths fell from among the defenders of the populist president.

It is then that the right-wing demonstrators attacked the National Guard,
while the auxiliary police of the extreme right-wing mayor of Caracas,
Alfrede Pena, fired on the pro-Chavez demonstrators. They unleashed violence
to make a counter-revolution possible. The majority of deaths were from
defenders of Chavez.

In the night from Thursday to Friday the following step took place. A group
from the National Guard and a large part of the Command of the Army turned
openly against President Chavez and seized the state television station. The
national and international media have been the most important instruments of
this coup d’etat, orchestrated by the wealthy elite classes with the direct
support of the United States.

- and now ABC News has revealed, The United States was involved in arranging a ransom

of an American missionary couple kidnapped nearly 11 months ago, but the couple has 
not been freed, ABCNEWS has learned. WHAT??? As ABC reports, Abu Sayyaf is Osama bin

blasted Bush's administration for its collusion with the energy industry and for 
undermining a generation of laws guaranteeing citizens an open and transparent 
government. On Feb. 15, Gore encouraged Congress to overturn the administration's 
decision to store nuclear waste at Yucca Mountain in Nevada, calling the decision bad 
science and bad policy that completely circumvented due process. As an earth lover, 
Gore blasted Bush on Valentine's Day for his laughable substitute for the Kyoto

__Gore Takes Florida By Storm

'The time has come to speak out boldly,' former Vice President Al Gore told a wildly 
cheering crowd at the 2002 Florida State Democratic Convention this morning. An 
impassioned Gore followed his own advice, delivering his most partisan speech to date. 
'On one key issue after another, the Republicans' radical agenda is completely at odds 
with our vision for America, and, I believe, with the will of the American people,' he 
told the assembled Democrats... Gore gave his recipe for a Democratic victory in 2002: 
'stand up with conviction for what we (Democrats) believe in'. Several times in the 
speech he stated his firm belief that victory depended on showing the American people 
the Democratic party's agenda - - and showing them the truth about the Republican 
party's record. So writes Janet Hessert in the Gore News Network.

Amnesty sends US dossier of complaints over Afghanistan detainees

Matthew Engel in Washington

excerpt

Amnesty International is today issuing a 62-page memorandum sent to the US
government, listing its complaints over the treatment of detainees held in
both Cuba and Afghanistan, and condemning the US approach to the issue.

The USA's 'pick and choose' approach to the Geneva Conventions is
unacceptable, as is its failure to respect fundamental international human
rights standards, the Amnesty memorandum says.

 ...  In the past, high-income taxpayers were far more likely to be audited

Iraq does not pose a threat worthy of war, Ritter told reporters in Paris.

From the Associated Press

Chavez Freed, Returns to Venezuela 
Sun Apr 14, 7:21 AM ET 
By ANDREW SELSKY, Associated Press Writer 

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) - Hugo Chavez was freed by his military captors and returned 
to reclaim the Venezuelan presidency Sunday, in a dramatic restoration of power two 
days after he was forced from office by army commanders.

Chavez stepped down from a helicopter, smiled and raised his fist in triumph as he 
greeted hundreds of cheering supporters outside the Miraflores presidential palace. 
Thousands in the street beyond began singing the Venezuelan national anthem.

His return shortly after 3 a.m. followed the resignation of Pedro Carmona, who stepped 
down amid violent protests after just one day in office as interim president of 
Venezuela, the No. 3 supplier of oil to the United States.

Chavez's vice president, Diosdado Cabello, had declared himself acting president until 
Chavez's return from military custody. He appeared healthy and hugged supporters as a 
military band played.

Chavez's family, supporters and former government officials insisted he never resigned 
as president, as Carmona and Venezuela's high command claimed.

Today we are celebrating a new democracy, said one man who took a microphone to 
greet Chavez.

Chavez is a former army paratrooper who led a failed 1992 coup but was elected in 1998 
on an anti-poverty platform. His term was to end in 2006.

Chavez's strongest support was among Venezuela's poor, though over time his once huge 
popularity dwindled as he clashed with many of the country's sectors in his bid to 
impose a revolution he said aimed to end corruption.

He alienated the United States with his ties to Cuban President Fidel Castro (news - 
web sites) and Iraq, and angered Venezuela's business community by decreeing laws they 
said were anti-business.

The military said Chavez resigned Friday hours after generals arrested him for 
allegedly ordering gunmen to fire on a massive opposition protest on Thursday. Sixteen 
died and hundreds were wounded in the melee.

Dozens more died in rioting and looting on Saturday.

After Carmona resigned Saturday, Chavez's attorney general, Isaias Rodriguez, told 
Carmona's ministers they were under arrest pending possible charges.

They must take responsibility. They will be put on trial with all their rights, but 
they will be put on trial, Cabello said. Some military officials also would be tried 
for military rebellion, he said.

Tens of thousands of people surrounded the presidential palace Sunday after news of 
Carmona's resignation. They set off powerful fireworks as they waited for Chavez's 
anticipated return from military custody.

Chavez is coming! Chavez is coming! said Dario Fereira, an unemployed man wearing a 
tattered shirt.

Chavez administration officials — many of whom had evaded dozens of police raids under 
Carmona's brief reign — and loyalist military officers hugged each other in the 
palace's marble-floored courtyard.

In these past two days they have persecuted us, said Rafael Ramirez, president of 
the state-run national gasoline company.

Unshaved and with red-rimmed eyes, Ramirez said he had hidden in friend's homes after 
Chavez's arrest on Friday. Asked about the turnaround, Ramirez said: It's marvelous 
because the Venezuelan people responded to this illegal coup attempt.

Chavez's labor minister, Maria Cristina Iglesias, said Chavez was kept on Orchila 
Island off the Venezuelan coast.

Just hours earlier, interim president Carmona — a businessman and co-leader of a 
general strike called last week against Chavez — announced he had resigned. Carmona 
was named president by the military high command.

We have every right to protest, but they are gunning us down out there, said Edgar 
Paredes, his clothes soaked in blood as he brought his wounded brother to a hospital. 
He didn't know who shot Luis, and probably never will. Like most violent 
demonstrations here, gunfire can erupt from any side, at any time.

Demonstrators supporting Chavez — or opposed to the way he was ousted — forced Carmona 
to step down. The commander of a strategic air base in the central city of Maracay 
rebelled Saturday, setting in motion nationwide protests demanding Chavez's return.

Thousands took to the streets, taking over state TV, to demand that Chavez be 
reinstalled. Signaling a split in the armed forces, several military commanders 
refused to accept Carmona's appointment.

Some Latin American leaders denounced Friday's irregular transition of power. The 
United States said Chavez was

 Now, if we could just find something on the prior, and

  When the circumstantial evidence raises eyebrows we can only keep digging
to see if there's fire behind the smoke.  I am satisfied that the
circumstantial evidence for foreknowledge of 911, and even of possible
complicity (ie, calling off and/or delaying an investigation, absence of
scrambled jets) give us reason to keep digging.  IMO, the most compelling
collection of circumstantial evidence of 911 foreknowledge/complicity comes
from Mike Ruppert's work at copvcia.com.  Have you seen Mike's piece on 911?

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.
