Re: [CTRL] The Neocons Their Lies - The Man Behind The Curtain: Bill Kristol
-Caveat Lector- -Caveat Lector- More sensible than prematurely denying Iraqs weapons of mass destruction and calling Bush/NeoCons liars as Max Shpak does in the following article would be to ask if Iraqs weapons of mass destruction are now in the hands of Syria, Iran, and Terrorists BECAUSE of the US invasion of Iraq! After all, Iraq was known to have various wmds in the past and strenuously resisted inspections to destroy them in the past. It looks to me like the Bush Administration is setting-up the peace crowd to look foolish when the truth is revealed or manipulated nearer the election. Clearly, Iran has learned from the experience of Iraq and Korea that weapons of mass destruction, in place and ready to fire, are the only means to prevent a regime change attack by the United States. Clearly, the United States must oust these so called rogue regimes BEFORE the nuclear, gas, and germ options are in place ready to go if Israels future is to be assured. Thus, it would behoove the US to exaggerate the immediacy of the wmd threat, but the US would have little need to exaggerate the threat itself. The Muslim hard liners really DO HATE Israel and its sponsor the US. The Islamists really do want to destroy Israel and the United States! They really do want and are attempting to obtain weapons of mass destruction toward that end! Should the Islamist fail to obtain workable wmds, Israel and the US will gradually or not so gradually destroy Islam! Peace activists OUGHT to be pointing-out that we are fast approaching the point where the SUN NEVER SETS ON AN AMERICAN DYING FOR THE JUDEO-MASONIC-ZIONIST-ANGLOPHILE Empire! Peace activists ought to start arguing about details manipulated in the mass media and question the big picture . . . and propose the alternative: the much discredited ISOLATIONISM of Americas past! Lloyd Miller, a-albioic.com -Original Message- From: Conspiracy Theory Research List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of William Shannon Sent: Saturday, June 21, 2003 3:35 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [CTRL] The Neocons Their Lies - The Man Behind The Curtain: Bill Kristol http://www.etherzone.com/2003/shpa062003.shtml THE NEOCONS AND THEIR LIES THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN - BILL KRISTOL By: Max Shpak It should come as little surprise that weeks after a war that was sold to the public on the grounds that proponents of the war knew that Saddam Hussein had Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs), they are nowhere to be found. Because the self-styled Mideast warriors at various neoconservative propaganda rags assured the public that there was indeed hard evidence of these WMDs existence, common sense implies that they, or at least their sources, knew where they were and would surely be able to find them well over a month after the invasion. The fact that nobody is able to do so now proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the neocons were then as throughout their shady careers feeding lies to the American public. When it comes to the countless overblown claims made by the neocons to propagandize their war against Iraq, it should come as no surprise that the Emperor has no clothes. The neoconservative litany of lies and distortions over the past few years contains enough material to fill several encyclopedic volumes (perhaps one day such a set of volumes will be published as a how too guide for the self-styled Ilya Ehrenburgs of the future). Elsewhere I have discussed some of the past hypocrisy, rhetorical sleights-of-hand, half-truths, and outright lies that have surrounded other neoconservative crusades, from the first Gulf War to Kosovo to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. I have also discussed the fact that the public, and for that matter much of the self-congratulatory watchdog media, are utterly numb to the fact that neoconservatives habitually lie. Indeed, the mass media organs and their eager viewers still seem ever ready to swallow the newest batch of swill produced by the Kristols and Frums of the world without the slightest hindsight or concern about their past deceptions. Where the neoconservative program of deceit has taken a new and interesting angle this time around is the way in which they are handling the (minimal) extent of discussion and revelation surrounding their nonexistent evidence for Husseins WMDs. Knowing perfectly well that they were the agent provocateurs behind these claims, the neocons have quickly moved to cover their flank by effectively pinning whatever blame there might be on those they swindled. Its a strategy all shysters use: find a willing dupe and junior partner for your scam, and then when the effort fails, pin all of the blame on unwitting assistant. In his effort to nip any criticism of WMD lies at the bud, William Kristol began his self-exculpatory memo with the claim We shouldn't deny, those of us who were hawks, that there could have been misstatements made, I think in good faith, Weekly Standard editor Bill
[CTRL] EU/WTO Threatening to Ban Dietary Supplements -- Conspiracy vs. Your Health Gains Steam
-Caveat Lector- -Caveat Lector- A-albionic Research Weekly Update for June 14, 2003 The best way to fight the conspiracy against your health is to join the Life Extension Foundation. Join NOW! http://www.lef.org/cgi-local/welcome.cgi/id=151074252/welcome.html A small membership fee brings you all the health information you need plus contributing to the Foundations court battles against the FDA and, now, international regulators in the EU and WTO! Europe Threatening To Ban Dietary Supplements International Assistance Needed To Stop Draconian EU Vitamin Laws By John C. Hammell, President International Advocates for Health Freedom Currently under consideration in Europe is legislation that will severely limit a consumer's right to choose and use supplements. If this legislation becomes law it will be a major step towards the adoption of global standards for the regulation of dietary supplements, as is being worked on at the UN's Codex Alimentarius Commission. Since the U.S. is part of this process and is a member of the World Trade Organization, the U.S. could be forced to harmonize its vitamin laws with these new, highly restrictive international standards. In an effort to stop this punitive legislation, the Alliance for Natural Health, an organization based in England is planning to file an emergency lawsuit on behalf of consumers, vitamin companies and health food stores to overturn the EU Food Supplements Directive which became law on June 10, 2002. The Food Supplements Directive currently concerns itself only with vitamins and minerals. However, by the year 2007 the European Union will be obliged to provide detailed proposals to expand the law to cover all other types of nutrients. Eventually this will force vitamin companies to reformulate their most important supplements. Although the 13 key vitamins would be permitted, the Directive excludes the most bioavailable forms of vitamin complexes. For example, The Food Supplement Directive bans any chelated or other organically complexed mineral forms such as selenomethionine. Additionally, it will only allow the alpha-tocopherols of Vitamin E but excludes the complete tocopherol range as found in nature (including the lambda-tocopherols) which are far more effective as antioxidants than the simpler alpha-tocopherol group. Research has proven that many vitamins and minerals are most bioavailable when in the forms found in nature. Unless the current Directive is overturned, many of Life Extension products will be banned, and the Foundation will be forced to either cease selling particular products in Europe or will be forced to reformulate their scientifically balanced products. . .

[CTRL] David Rockefeller vs. Israel [Pro Muslims/Arabs] OIL!
Title: Message -Caveat Lector- Part of the longstanding _Project_ theory of geopolitics, is that the Vatican and Rockefellers routinely line-up against the Judeo-Masonic Anglophile cabal (NeoBritish Empire). . .the Vatican for its preference of faith based society vs "Modernism," to say nothing of their long-standing war with the Jews,and the Rockefellers for their long-standing alliance with Saudi Arabia to control the world's oil resources. We find this confirmed below in David Rockefeller's recently published _Memoirs_: Page 494: [Epilogue] ". . .It was only with time that I began to understand the connection between the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and the failure over a period of almost 50 years to resolve the dilemma of the Middle East. President Nasser's 1969 warning to me about the "growing instability and radicalism" throughout the region resonated strongly. Despite efforts by people of good faith on all sided, this dangerous cancer has never been excised, and it now threatens the stability and prosperity of the entire world." Of course, the "only with time" part is a lie [unless old Rocky is already senile], but note that this Rockefeller statement is in direct oppostion to the Zionist propaganda barrage (now politically correct) that the the Arab-Israeli conflict is only a small part of the motivation of the terrorists! Note further that it was old David who tottered-out during the impeachmentcrisis to welcome and introduce Bill Clinton to a CFR meeting where Clinton spoke. Also recall Clinton's several visits to the Rockefeller vacation spot in Aspen. Clinton was clearly a Rockefeller tool as evidenced by his luke warm enthusiasm for the crusade against Iraq and terrorism and, most important, for his opposition to the Likud in Israel. Clinton intervened directly in Israel elections trying to defeat the Likud. ***Lloyd Miller, Research Director for A-albionic Research (POB 20273,Ferndale, MI 48220), a ruling class/conspiracy research resource for theentire political-ideological spectrum.

Introducing the Link and Pivot bombs or Looks like another US Military/Intelligence Black Op by voxfux Its not hard to find pieces of the puzzle that just dont fit. Thats why the dark force spent years obliterating Americans critical capability. So that the pieces that just dont fit - dont even get noticed. Here's a piece that doesn't fit. They expect us to believe that the same Islamic Terrorists who supposedly masterminded the Sept. 11th attacks, (Arguably the most significant MILITARY strikes in the history of empires, shaking the very roots of the globes preeminent empire.) would blunder and bomb the disco containing Australians when a disco full of juicy Americans was just a few doors down the road? One only has to spend an afternoon on the strip to find out which places are popular with the Americans. Even Islamic terrorists can ask any Kuta vagrant which club has the Americans in it. And absolutely , positively, if Islamic terrorists were behind this attack, they would have gone straight to the discos frequented by Americans only several doors down the street, and bombed them - Absolutely - Positvely. So voxfux gives this attack, this months award for being, The Most Suspicious Attack - Looking Most Like Just Another Clandestine US military/Intelligence Attack of the Month award.

[CTRL] Bali, Australia The Mossad
-Caveat Lector- .. From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed] Note: We store 100's of related New Paradigms Posts at: http://www.msen.com/~lloyd/oldprojects/recentmail.html Rense.com Subject: Bali, Australia The Mossad Commentary By Rose Cohen Sydney, Australia 10-17-2 It could be that Moslems really did the Bali bombing, but I doubt it, it's too perfect. To be honest, I speculated that something would happen against the Australians after our PM broke the total international isolation of Bush and Blair. EVERY SINGLE AUSTRALIAN whom I talked to, disagrees with our government - AND I MEAN EVERY SINGLE AUSTRALIAN including the Editorial of the Sydney Morning Herald.this has NEVER happened before! As ABC National Australia Radio and many Australian papers mentioned, our government practically invited such a terrible event by 'sticking our neck out' far beyond ANY international codes of behavior. As a result, we lost a one billion dollar Wheat deal with Iraq, while our 'friends' the Americans are increasing their taxes on Australian farm products!!! Outrageous? NO, Mister Rense, this is the 'normal' international code of behavior which selfish Bush and his NWO mob are trying to impose on the rest of the world. Israel, IMHO tricked Austra! lia, and forced our government into supporting Bush blindly in order to generate Islamic hatret towards Australia. Once this hate is established the rest is 'clear sailing' and they can use their Mossad contacts among radical Moslem groups to blow up Australians. These are CLASSIC MOSSAD PROTOCOLS. Now Bush can easily request the Indonesian government (which is in his pocket to the tune of $600 million dollars at least - and Australia trained Indonesia's military) to join the war against terrorism. This tactic is NOT a speculation, it is written almost word for word in the Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion. http://aztlan.net/protocols.htmhttp://aztlan.net/protocols.htm Yes, I am an Israeli-born Jew but I am NOT a Zionist. Many efforts have been made to dismiss the Protocols as a hoax...frankly, it matters not whether they are or aren't because of their astonishing reflection of reality. Read them and decide for yourself. Israel has an advantage that NO other country has ! (not to mention unlimited, free American money): Israelis can SPEAK Mo slem languages just as good as the local Moslems do. Mossad networks inside Moslem countries have had a lot of publicity in the past, but whatever we heard is just the tip of an iceberg. The Mossad can 'motivate' any Moslem group to become 'terrorists'...since they have all the 'spiritual' justifications for it: THE AMERICANS ARE REALLY THE BASTARDS. The Mossad does not have to work hard to convince the Moslems about the 'bad' Americans: Bush, Giulliani, Condoleezza and Fox News are doing it VERY well. The poor, unsophisticated Moslems will never realize who is really pulling their strings. And the whole thing is, of course, being financed with unlimited American taxpayer money. Saddam got his BioChem WMD supplies and instructions from America and the Mossad is using American money to control the US. It is all quite brilliant and few will ever figure it out. Make NO mistake about itand if you want to sugar-coat it to quiet your consciencedo it, and call it what you ! wish. And don't forget, Sharon is the only current head of state who was found responsible for war crime massacres (Sabra Shatila, 3000 dead Palestinian women and children) by a commission of his own Israeli government !!! Israel has a network of spies worldwide among Jews living in these countries too. I MEAN IN ALMOST EVERY COUNTRY WORLDWIDE. Think carefully about that. Read what an ex-Mossad agent has disclosed: http://www.mideastfacts.com/ostrovsky_111097.html Israel has a SPY INDUSTRY which is unparallel worldwide. Israel is leading the world by its nose towards WW3 and most gentiles have no brain to realize it: http://www.rense.com/general25/you.htm As Sharon and Bush just reaffirmed in the White House, Israel will let Bush and the US fight a war for it, removing Saddam and taking Iraq's oil. Bush said he expects Israel will retaliate if attacked by Iraq. Who knows, Israel may nuke Iraq AND the Americans in the upcoming Desert Storm II ...EXACTLY as it did with ! the USS Liberty. http://www.rense.com/general26/ally.htm --- The rea son I continue to maintain that it was probably a Mossad-involved operation in Bali, is because of the perfection 'job'...it takes a Jew to understand the Zionist mind as reflected in the reviled 'Elders'. Without reading this officially scorned and hated book, no one can EVER understand the Mossad and/or Israel. This is why we in Israel have been always forbidden to read the Protocols and the government maintained a 50+ year campaign among Israelis
Re: [CTRL] Falwell's follies
-Caveat Lector- === Rev. Falwell told CBS' Bob Simon: I think Mohammed was a terrorist. I read enough by both Muslims and non-Muslims, [to decide] that he was a violent man, a man of war. In my opinion, Jesus set the example for love, as did Moses, and I think Mohammed set an opposite example. How about trying to deal with the substance of the above. . .? Islam was founded as a tool of Arab tribal warfare and then later served as a tool of Arab Imperialism! That kind of thing does not appear in the New Testament though the Old Testament is rank with it! As did Moses is an idiot add-in to pacify the Jewish community! Lloyd Miller, Research Director, A-albionic Research -Original Message- From: Conspiracy Theory Research List [mailto:CTRL;LISTSERV.AOL.COM] On Behalf Of Euphorian Sent: Friday, October 18, 2002 12:48 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [CTRL] Falwell's follies -Caveat Lector- From URL @ bottom Falwell's follies Bill Berkowitz - WorkingForChange 10.16.02 - What do civil libertarians, gays, feminists, pro-choice advocates, pagans and Muhammad have in common? Within the past year or so, they've all felt the verbal wrath of the Rev. Jerry Falwell. For years, the Rev. Falwell's message of hate has been mostly a domestic matter. His recent remarks on CBS' 60 Minutes calling Muhammad a terrorist, however, caused an immediate international commotion. Last year, shortly after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, the Rev. Falwell told Pat Robertson's 700 Club audience that . I really believe that the pagans and the abortionists and the feminists and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle... all of them who have tried to secularize America. I point the finger in their face and say, 'You helped this happen.' Besieged by critics and perceived as being pretty damned nasty, the Rev. Falwell became apologetic. Well. sort of. A few days after teeing off on the laundry list of his life-long enemies, Falwell claimed that his comments were made during a theological discussion on a Christian television program [and they] were taken out of their context and reported, and that my thoughts -- reduced to sound bites -- have detracted from the spirit of this time of mourning. Like the politician who tells a racist joke and then claims he didn't know he was being recorded, Falwell claimed his words were meant only for Christian true believers, and not for the public at large. That excuse doesn't change the nature of his comments. Falwell: 'Muhammad was a terrorist' Flash forward nearly 13 months: On the October 6th edition of 60 Minutes, the Rev. Falwell told CBS' Bob Simon: I think Mohammed was a terrorist. I read enough by both Muslims and non-Muslims, [to decide] that he was a violent man, a man of war. In my opinion, Jesus set the example for love, as did Moses, and I think Mohammed set an opposite example. In short order, with critical comments against him mounting both at home and abroad, Falwell claimed that he was a victim of sound bite journalism - the real culprit was that Satanesque excuse for a journalist, Bob Simon. The Rev. Falwell is no victim. His situation is in no way comparable for example to the time Connie Chung ambushed Newt Gingrich's unsuspecting mother and got her to say some nasty stuff on network television about Hillary Clinton. The Rev. Falwell is television-savvy; he's been a guest on more television programs in a year than most all other religious figures will appear on in a lifetime. On his website, the Rev. frequently informs the faithful of his upcoming talking-head schedule. Playing the I was tricked card, the Rev. Falwell told WORLD, the weekly evangelical news magazine, that he should have known that CBS would use the comments to stir up conflict and animosity. It wasn't that his comments were hateful, the Rev. seemed to be was saying. It was the fact that CBS would use them that was the problem. According to Marvin Olasky, World's editor-in-chief, Falwell said that Simon had called him back once the uproar began, fishing for more, and that he had complained about CBS extracting from 1 1/2 hours of interview tape that divisive side remark. 'I believe you exploited me and took advantage of me as a person,' he told Mr. Simon, who quickly got off the phone, Olasky reported. Olasky rushed to Falwell's defense, and in his World column he declared Simon to be a bigot. Olasky claims that the segment on 60 Minutes was meant to focus on Christians and Israel, not Islam, but Mr. Simon in passing asked Jerry Falwell if he thought Muhammad approved of violence, and Mr. Falwell fell into the trap. CBS then promoted 60 Minutes with the 'terrorist' sound bite, in full knowledge that it was incidental to the thrust of the piece. The evident goal: Hype the program, build the audience, and never mind the lack of context. Shooting off his mouth

Leahy's thesis is, Dr. Leonard Horowitz, a Harvard graduate and independent investigator whose thirteenth book, Death in the Air: Globalism, Terrorism and Toxic Warfare, predated the 9-11 attacks by three months. The book focuses on the West Nile Virus as part of a biological weapons arsenal shipped to Iraq during the 1980s. Dr. Horowitz testified before the Government Reform Committee on Capitol Hill on April 18 of this year regarding evidence he compiled showing that vaccine makers for the West Nile Virus and anthrax were suspects in the outbreaks and mailings. Supportive evidence includes records from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, submitted to Congress, showing that a pharmaceutical industry and bioweapons supplier - the American Type Culture Collection in Maryland - shipped Iraqi laboratories more than nineteen shipments of anthrax and two containers of the West Nile Virus, during the 1980s. Dr. Horowitz believes that the recent outbreaks and anthrax mailings, including the ones to Senators Leahy and Majority Leader Tom Dashle, are part of a fear-rousing bioterrorist agenda solely benefiting a consortium of mostly foreign-owned vaccine, drug, and chemical companies historically linked to such activities. An excellent example, Dr. Horowitz said, is the Michigan-based Bioport company. This infamous producer of America's anthrax vaccine, vigorously sanctioned in the past by Congress and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for their untrustworthyness, is directed by a wealthy Saudi industrialist with purported ties to the bin Laden family or their investments. Bioport's operating plans were discovered by American forces when they took control of an Osama bin Laden encampment in Afghanistan. News reports about West Nile Virus (WNV) spreading across America have also missed obvious links to the global biological weapons trade. Dr. Horowitz, who urgently alerted the FBI concerning what he viewed was a developing anthrax mailings scam a week before it was announced in the press, shared views supportive to Senator Leahy's during an nationally televised interview on FOX News last month (See August 23rd segment at http://www.healingcelebrations.com/wes). During a meeting with Senator Daschle's staff on April 17, and again the following day before the Government Reform Committee chaired by Rep. Dan Burton (R-IN), Dr. Horowitz alerted officials regarding a possible profit motive for recent epidemics, outbreaks, and anthrax attacks. His written testimony (Available at: http://www.tetrahedron.org/articles/vaccine_awareness/antecendent s_epidemic_autism.html ) reflected on Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Tommy Thompson's unprecedented half-billion dollars worth of anthrax and smallpox vaccine purchases, made shortly after the anthrax mailings. Dr. Horowitz noted with suspicion that these exact purchases fulfilled the request made by the chief anthrax vaccine developer at Bioport, Dr. Robert C. Myers, as entered into the Congressional Record in 1999. The mailings, he believes, provided the perfect wag-the-dog impetus for the government expenditures. Senator Leahy referred to an October 1999 issue of The New Yorker that disclosed that the West Nile Virus arrived in New York (other reports specify Rockefeller University labs) closely following the germ,s isolation in 1937. It was shipped to New York by virologists working in northwest Uganda - precisely where the Ebola virus, known to be the world's best biological weapon, is believed to have originated. This area of central Africa is also known as the heart of the African AIDS belt.

Dodi's father Mohamed Al-Fayed continues to charge Prince Philip orchestrated the assassination because of anti-Islamic, anti-Arab prejudice in the British Ruling Class. Pressure for an official British inquest continues to emanate from Al-Fayed. Recently, the Royal Family's influence has been detected in Parliament where a move is afoot to change British law to allow the family of victims more say in whether an official inquest is required! Allegedly Prince William is appalled and would like to see the charges fully aired and investigated! Does he think this is the way to clear the air? Or does he think this is a way to nail his grandfather, Prince Philip? The National Examiner (September 24, 2002) recently covered some of these facts in an article titled: Prince William Stunned Over Royal Cover-up! . . . Palace blocks inquest into Diana's death, however, the basic facts regarding the proposed inquest have appeared elsewhere. Crass prejudice is hardly likely to be the cause of the well documented consternation in the Royal Family regarding Di's cavorting with a playboy Muslim and even considering marriage [possibley pregnant by Dodi]. Is Mohamed Al-Fayed, a rich and powerful businessman with extensive business relationships in the Islamic world, really that foolish? No, there can be little doubt that Al-Fayed is acutely aware of the geopolitics reasons Islamics cannot be allowed to penetrate the British Royal Family where they could influence policy in the future in regard to Anglo-American world rule and its Jewish spearpoint in the Islamic world: Israel.

[CTRL] Masons Rising in Cuba Under Castro's Nose?
-Caveat Lector- .. From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed] Note: We store 100's of related New Paradigms Posts at: http://www.msen.com/~lloyd/oldprojects/recentmail.html === From: http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2002/04/30/1019441369020.html Subject: Masons Rising in Cuba Under Castro's Nose? Forget Fidel, just give me the secret handshake, senor By David Gonzalez May 1 2002 Cuba's capital has a sovereign grand commander who wears a uniform, is privy to secrets and partial to symbolism. But he is not Fidel Castro. His name is Jesus Armada Pena, and he is a 33rd degree mason who presides over Cuba's Supreme Council at an imposing, if age-worn, Scottish Rite Masonic temple in central Havana. Long discouraged and distrusted by the authorities, Cuba's masons have seen their ranks more than double since the 1980s, to 29,000 members in more than 316 lodges across the island. Earlier this year, the Cuban Government gave permission for two new lodges, the first since 1967. Along with other fraternal or mystical groups, like the Oddfellows and the Rosicrucians, the Masons have been attracting men searching for more enduring answers than those offered by communism, the only system generations of Cubans have ever known. Once shrouded in secrecy, the fraternal groups - which exist in many countries and have origins as old as the Crusades - shun specific religions and ideologies and say their purpose is to foster brotherhood and search for truth. The Masons, the largest of Cuba's brotherhoods, meet weekly to celebrate rituals in rooms with flaked murals of the heavens and tarnished swords on pedestals. They sit, wearing threadbare ceremonial aprons, in high-backed wooden chairs. Members visit the sick in hospitals and help out their families. Armada's masonic temple distributes medicine and vitamins donated by lodges in the United States and Europe. The brotherhoods are creating a mutual aid network that seeks - very cautiously - to provide what Castro's government does not or will not. We have always existed in Cuba, Armada says. But after the revolution there was a decrease in membership. So many left the country, while others thought the Masons no longer had a reason for being because our principles and foundation as an institution were overtaken by the political process. Now we have found an echo among the young. They are looking for answers to their worries, which the state could not give them. What the state has long given the masons is trouble, going back to the rule of Spain in the 1800s. The first lodges were founded by French settlers who fled the slave revolt in Haiti. Cuba's Grand Lodge and the Supreme Council were created in 1859, and attracted many men who would go on to fight Spanish colonial rule. Pointing to a portrait on his office wall of Benito Juarez, the mason and Mexican hero, he said the fellowship has had a strong appeal to nationalists. Even Jose Marti, the fabled apostle of Cuba's fight against Spain, was said to have been a mason. The mason is imbued with the ideals of the French Revolution, the American Revolution and the philosophical currents of the time, like Rousseau, Armada says. But when the communists came to power in 1959, the masons' ideas were seen as a threat. Membership plummeted from 39,000 to 14,000 by 1980 as the group was treated as a clandestine counter-revolutionary sect. Recently the government has given a little more leeway, even allowing some masons to travel to conventions overseas. Members are careful not to overstep their bounds, and they give the government reports on their meetings. Lately, they have been allowed to conduct wreath-laying ceremonies in public parks. But they cannot hold street processions with unfurled banners. There is a great vacuum after the fall of the socialist bloc did away with any hope for people to develop themselves, says Raul Rivero, an independent Cuban journalist. So people sought refuge in those groups looking for solidarity. For these fraternal groups the loyalty is to the human being. For the government, solidarity is conditioned on political principle. Officially, the government now says the masons are linked to some of the nobler moments of Cuba's past. Privately, masons complain that they are infiltrated with government agents and sometimes receive veiled warnings about their meetings with foreigners, including American diplomats. Those diplomats are watching the growth of the fraternal orders with interest. They loosen the bonds of the state by showing that services and resources can be provided by people themselves, said Vicky Huddleston, the head of the US Interests Section in Havana

First, the US must show the leadership necessary to establish and protect a new order that holds the promise of convincing potential competitors that they need not aspire to a greater role or pursue a more aggressive posture to protect their legitimate interests. (1) The document, widely believed to have been authored by Dick Cheney, set out a plan to seal Washington's ascendancy over the globe -- a new, bolder, imperialism than was possible before the Soviet Union crumbled. What was necessary was to have a way to deal with anyone who might be foolish or bold enough to contest Washington's developing suzerainty over the globe. So what do you do when potential competitors end up aspiring to a greater role and began to pursue a more aggressive posture to protect their legitimate interests? That's the problem Washington faced, when, last June, Russia and China drew four Central Asian countries -- Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan -- into the Shanghai cooperation organization. Its purpose? To foster world multi-polarization, said China's Jiang Zemin. (2) In other words, to thwart Washington's imperial ambitions. Not that this was the first time Washington's old Cold War adversaries had become a little testy about America's unilateralism. Just before he and his booze-soaked brain shuffled off into retirement, former Russian President Boris Yeltsin lashed out at then US President Bill Clinton. It seems he has for a minute, for a second, for half a minute, forgotten that Russia has a full arsenal of nuclear weapons, he thundered. A multilateral world, that is the basis for everything. As we have agreed with Jiang Zemin.we will dictate to the world, not him, not him alone. It seemed almost pitiable. The once mighty Russia, now an impoverished, hollowed out shell of its former self, reduced by the IMF, corrupt politicians and gangsters to third world poverty faster than you can say the Washington Consensus, almost pleading to be recognized as one of a triad of countries that dictate to the world. Dealing with Russia, increasingly encircled by an ever expanding NATO, wouldn't be much of a problem. But the Shanghai cooperation organization -- that was a problem in the making. The four Central Asian republics are key to a region teeming with vast oil and gas reserves, enough to supply America's voracious appetite for oil for the next 30 years, not to mention the oil industry's illimitable appetite for profits. This was wealth American oil men, like Cheney, and William Farish, friend of President George W. Bush and US Ambassador to the UK, dream of. I cannot think of a time when we have had a region emerge as suddenly to become as strategically significant as the Caspian, said Cheney. (3) Certainly not a region it would be advantageous to have under the thumbs of Moscow and Beijing. Farish agreed. A Bush intimate, and himself scion of a rich Texas oil family, Farish is fascinated by the 'black gold' that lies in large quantities in the countries around the Caspian Sea, says The London Sunday Times. And, adds the newspaper, Farish says, US policy advisors are evaluating how best to safeguard American and European access to the vast oil and gas reserves of central Asia. (4) Or, to put it in less high-faulting terms: US policy advisors are evaluating how best to ensure Western firms, and especially American firms, monopolize the action. In December 1997 the National Defense Panel released a report underscoring the importance of access to Middle East and Caspian Basin oil. We will continue to be involved in regions that control scarce resources, such as the Middle East and the emerging Caspian Sea areas for oil. (5) That the Pentagon was promising that it would continue to be involved in the Caspian, as if it were perfectly natural and legitimate for the US military to be involved in someone else's affairs half away around the globe, raised few eyebrows in Washington. It should have. But not since the Roman Empire has a country so confused appetite for entitlement as the US. Echoing the report, Clinton's Energy Secretary Bill Richardson, explained, We've made a substantial political investment in the Caspian, and it's very important to us that both the pipeline map and the politics

Guards leaped out of the front and back cars and quickly surrounded the middle car. The back door of the house opened and two more heavily armed soldiers appeared. One nodded in the silence of the night. With another furtive glance around the street the lead bodyguard opened the right rear door to the black limousine. Out stepped a familiar looking figure who nodded and strode directly into the house. Inside the former home of one of the regimes supporters, the house had been transformed into the Iraqi equivalent of the White House Situation Room. Radio equipment squawked with military updates. A large electronic map of the Middle East showed deployments of military units, planes and mobile missile emplacements. Taking a seat at the head of a long, rectangular table, the Iraqi strongman, Saddam Hussein, removed his turban and brought the meeting to order. Diplomatic update! he barked. The only man dressed in a civilian business suit pulled himself up to the table and replied, Eminence, the news from New York and Washington is not good. Our people tell us that there is no chance the United Nations will even relax the sanctions. Our expulsion of the CIA spy Ridder has angered Washington, as we expected. Furthermore, Israel, the Saudis and the Americans are in agreement: no one will even talk of lifting or relaxing any of the strictures on our economy. Saddams mouth showed a cruel turn rarely seen in public photos. The Saudis and the Israelis are working together on this? The diplomat nodded his silent assent. Sadaam then growled, Research update. Two nerdy-looking young men wearing military uniforms with a patch indicating a special scientific branch of the Republican Guards nervously opened their file folders and passed papers around the table. The senior of the two addressed the head of the table, Eminence, we have made progress in the delivery system. We can deliver the package but we still have trouble with the potency of that package. How lethal? The other of the two nerds coughed once and nervously replied, Occasionally lethal. But not a very high percentage yet. Sadaam scowled at this news. What is the problem? Eminence, we have been unable to pack a lethal dose into a mosquito and still have the mosquito able to deliver it. Such toxicity kills the messenger, so to speak. The feared Iraqi tyrant actually smiled at this. Understood. He swiveled in his chair and studied an electric world globe off to his left. Spinning it he scanned both hemispheres and thought in silence. Then he looked at yet another military figure sitting at the table. Targets? The senior military officer, his chest decorated with medals won during conflicts against neighboring Iran, slid a single sheet of paper across to the Iraqi strongman. Sadaam carefully read the document and then smiled. Clever, he muttered. Casually fingering the epaulet on his left shoulder, Saddam Hussein then ended the early morning meeting with a simple command, Hit all four targets. The meeting broke up. Saddam was escorted to yet another underground bunker for a safe nights sleep. Each of the other military contingents hustled off to their HQs to implement their leaders command. Within days special teams of Iraqi scientists pre-positioned around the globe began a delicate but deadly process: releasing specially bred mosquitoes into the atmospheres of New York City, the Washington, D.C., suburbs, Israeli coastal regions and southern areas of Saudi Arabia. The mosquitoes were loaded with the potentially deadly West Nile Fever. The goal: inflict insidious damage to the civilian populations at the very centers of U.N. activity that were hurting the Iraqi civilian population through the continued imposition of sanctions against all aspects of Iraqs economy. By this week it has been reported that in parts of New York City, the Maryland suburbs surrounding Washington, D.C., the mid-coastal region of Israel and the southern Saudi coastal areas have all seen a precipitous rise of the incidents of West Nile Fever. Israel even calls it an epidemic. Is it not odd that no such increase has been reported in, say, Seattle or Houston, or Paris or Moscow or Bangkok or Peking or Tokyo? Is it just a coincidence these avowed enemies of Iraq have seen this sudden rise of West Nile, while no such increase has been reported anywhere else? I dont think so.

Subject: West Nile Mystery by Richard Preston WEST NILE MYSTERY How did it get here? The C.I.A. would like to know. BY RICHARD PRESTON _ Last spring, long before the outbreak, an Iraqi defector declared Saddam Hussein had told him of plans to use the virus as a bioweapon. _ SINCE the end of August, a brain virus that is now believed to be a previously unknown variant of the West Nile virus has killed at least five people around New York City and its suburbs. This has created a stir in the national news media -- and a whiff of concern within the C.I.A. that the outbreak might have been an act of bioterrorism -- but the main effect of the outbreak in humans has been quiet: thousands of New Yorkers may have had West Nile virus replicating in their brains this summer without knowing it. In most people, the West Nile illness feels like a mild flu. Humans catch it from the bite of an infected mosquito. You might get a headache and a backache and the blahs; just another summer bug. Usually, the illness lasts from three to six days, and people recover quickly, without lasting effects. But in young children, the elderly, and people with weak immune systems West Nile can turn into encephalitis -- an inflammation of the brain. The brain becomes red and pu! ffs up inside the skull. These victims may get tremors -- their muscles may become uncontrollably weak -- and they can have seizures, fall into a coma, stop breathing, and die. The West Nile virus was first identified by virologists in 1937, in the West Nile district of Uganda, along the Albert Nile near the border with the Congo, where it was making people sick. West Nile virus is a traveler. Mosquitoes are its main carriers and birds are its main hosts; they are its deep reservoir in nature. It has been found all over east Africa, in western India, in Australia (where one of its close relations is known as Kunjin), and in Egypt and the Middle East. About forty per cent of the people who live in the Nile Delta in Egypt have been infected with West Nile at some point in their lives. Although the virus stages occasional outbreaks in people, the real outbreaks are happening in birds, and people are bystanders caught in the crossfire -- bitten by chance by an infected mosquito. The virus also gets into ticks. From the point of view of the West Nile virus, the human species is of less consequence than a tick. In a manner of speaking, West Nile doesn't ! even know we exist. But when West Nile moves with the birds there is splatter damage among humans. Birds occasionally carry West Nile into Eastern Europe during their annual migrations out of Africa. Right now, there is a major outbreak of what is believed to be the West Nile virus in southern Russia, around the cities of Volgograd and Rostov-on-Don. There are reports that some six hundred people have been taken ill, and at least thirty-two have died. American scientists have been trying to persuade Russian scientists to send them samples of tissue and blood from the Russian outbreak, so that they can compare the New York strain with the Russian strain. It might show that the New York strain somehow came from Russia, perhaps traveling by airplane in the bloodstream of an infected Russian who ended up in Queens and was bitten by a mosquito there, and the mosquito then passed it to a bird. So far, the Russians haven't sent any samples. Until this summer, the West Nile virus had never been seen in the Western Hemisphere. Some virus experts think that the leap of West Nile virus into North America -- if this is indeed what has happened -- is one of the most important biological events to occur in the world of the viruses in this century. For one thing, until now the virus has generally not been fatal to its avian hosts. For another, the outbreak reveals the mobility of viruses and their propensity to cross continents. The experts have no idea how the virus got to New York and little idea where it's going. Possibly, an infected bird somehow flew across the ocean -- or hitched a ride on a ship, or was imported legally or illegally. Or perhaps an infected mosquito got here on a plane. The virus may now be headed down the eastern seaboard of the United States for the winter, traveling inside birds. In late June or early July, the virus apparently showed up in birds in the Whitestone area of northern Queens and i! n the South Bronx. The birds caught it from an urban mosquito, Culex pipiens -- Latin for chirping bug

Buchanan Patrick J. Buchanan Posted: September 11, 2002 1:00 a.m. Eastern © 2002 Creators Syndicate, Inc. The fires had not yet gone out at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, a year ago, before the War Party had introduced its revised plans for American empire. What many saw as a horrific atrocity and tragedy, they saw instantly as an opportunity to achieve U.S. hegemony over an alienated Islamic world. President Bush initially directed America's righteous wrath and military power at al-Qaida. But in his axis-of-evil address, he signed on to the War Party's agenda. What lies ahead? When America invades Iraq, it will have to destroy Saddam and all his weapons of mass destruction. Else, the war will have been a failure. And to ensure destruction of those weapons, we must occupy Iraq. If you would see what follows, pull out a map. With Americans controlling Iraq, Syria is virtually surrounded by hostile powers: Israel on the Golan, Turks and Kurds to the north, U.S. power to the west in Iraq and south in Jordan. Syrian President Assad will be forced to pull his army out of Lebanon, leaving Israel free to reinvade Lebanon to settle accounts with Hezbollah. Now look to Iran. With Americans occupying Iraq, Iran is completely surrounded: Americans and Turks to the west, U.S. power in the Gulf and Arabian Sea to the south, in Afghanistan to the east and in the old Soviet republics to the north. U.S. warplanes will be positioned to interdict any flights to Lebanon to support Hezbollah. Iraq is the key to the Middle East. As long as we occupy Iraq, we are the hegemonic power in the region. And after we occupy it, a window of opportunity will open - to attack Syria and Iran before they acquire weapons of mass destruction. This is the vision that enthralls the War Party - World War IV, as they call it - a series of cakewalks, short sharp wars on Iraq, Syria and Iran to eliminate the Islamic terrorist threat to us and Israel for generations. No wonder Ariel Sharon and his Amen Corner are exhilarated. They see America's war on Iraq as killing off one enemy and giving Israel freedom to deal summarily with two more: Hezbollah and the Palestinians. Two jumps ahead of us, the Israelis are already talking up the need for us to deal with Libya, as well. Anyone who believes America can finish Saddam and go home deceives himself. With Iraq's military crushed, the country will come apart. Kurds in the north and Shi'ites in the south will try to break away, and Iraq will be at the mercy of its mortal enemy, Iran. U.S. troops will have to remain to hold Iraq together, to find and destroy those weapons, to democratize the regime, and to deter Iran from biting off a chunk and dominating the Gulf. Recall: After we crushed Germany and Japan in World War II, both were powerless to reassume their historic roles of containing Russia and China. So, America, at a cost of 100,000 dead in Vietnam and Korea, had to assume those roles. With Iraq in ruins, America will have to assume the permanent role of Policeman of the Persian Gulf. But is this not a splendid vision, asks the War Party. After all, is this not America's day in the sun, her moment in history? And is not the crushing of Islamism and the modernization of the Arab world a cause worthy of a superpower's investment of considerable treasure and blood? What is wrong with the War Party's vision? Just this: Pro-American regimes in Cairo, Amman and Riyadh will be shaken to their foundations by the cataclysm unleashed as Americans smash Iraq, while Israelis crush Palestinians. Nor is Iran likely to passively await encirclement. Terror attacks seem certain. Nor is a militant Islam that holds in thrall scores of millions of believers from Morocco to Indonesia likely to welcome infidel America and Israel dictating the destiny of the Muslim world. As for the pro-American regimes in Kabul and Pakistan, they are but one bullet away from becoming anti-American. And should the Royal House of Saud come crashing down, as the War Party ardently hopes, do they seriously believe a Vermont-style democracy will arise? Since Desert Storm, America has chopped its fleets, air wings and ground troops by near 50 percent, while adding military commitments in the Balkans, Afghanistan, the Gulf and Central Asia. Invading and occupying Iraq will require hundreds of thousands of more troops. We are running out of army. And while Americans have shown they will back wars fought with no conscripts and few casualties, the day is not far off when they will be asked to draft their sons to fight for empire, and many of those sons will not be coming home. That day, Americans will tell us

Dave Eberhart Thursday, Oct. 25, 2001 Lost amidst the news about the bioterror use of anthrax is the growing menace of West Nile virus and evidence it may have been the first bioweapon used by Iraq against the U.S. This week the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention revealed that a Louisiana man had been infected, indicating the disease has spread far from its point of origin, New York. West Nile virus, the mosquito-borne disease once totally foreign to the Western Hemisphere, has now spread from New York to Florida, Louisiana and Wisconsin. The pathogen was first discovered in the United States in 1999 when it erupted in New Yorks Long Island City, the Queens community just across New Yorks East River from the United Nations. It killed seven people and caused serious illness in 62 others in New York and New Jersey. This year the virus killed an Atlanta woman http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2001/8/17/190342.shtml, the 10th person to die from the illness in the U.S. Though the disease has all but disappeared from media scopes since the anthrax scare, it has not gone away, and its possible terrorist origins have never been definitively ruled out. At a news conference last week, New York Gov. George Pataki said his states health labs were running 24 hours a day to accommodate anthrax testing. He noted in passing that New York state health authorities were moving workers dedicated to the West Nile virus to help test the flood of incoming samples. Meanwhile, floating as invisible as a spore, was a recent notice that two elderly residents of New Yorks Nassau County became the ninth and 10th New Yorkers to receive diagnoses of West Nile virus in 2001. Equally obscure: a recent article citing that Florida Department of Health extended warnings about West Nile virus to 12 more counties, placing 48 of the state's 67 counties on alert. The state confirmed seven human cases of encephalitis from West Nile virus in 2001. Commenting on a recent outbreak of West Nile and the related death of one woman in Maryland, J.B. Hanson, spokesman for the Maryland state health department, said authorities have noted that the migration of the virus has roughly followed the Interstate 95 corridor. We haven't reached a consensus to explain that route, he said, adding yet another element to the mystery of the origin and processes of the disease. For if the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) is right and the viruss spread is owing only to the vagaries of Mother Nature, why does it seem to follow an interstate highway? Iraqi Connection And why has the disease broken out in the United States, Israel and Saudi Arabia - all primary targets for Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein since the end of the Gulf War?

Experts agree that Saddam's bioweapons people might be brewing up God-knows-what in a French-built virology facility near Baghdad that has been closed to inspectors from the United Nations since Saddam threw them out years ago. The facility, called the Foot and Mouth Vaccine Plant, was used for making botulinum toxin, or BTX - one of the most lethal biotoxins known. In 1992, the United Nations tore down the buildings in which the BTX was made and destroyed equipment, but left standing the bulk of the facility, part of which was for virus research. (In 1985 the CDC sent samples of West Nile virus to a researcher in Iraq, stirring controversy in the media five years later, on the eve of the Gulf War, when reports came out that Iraq had a significant biowarfare program.) All but missing in action on the front lines of the anthrax attacks, controversial U.S. Surgeon General David Satcher told the Jerusalem Post last year that the genetic strain of the West Nile virus found in Israel was the same as the one found in New York. And, of course, there remains the sinister shadow of In the Shadow of Saddam, the infamous book by Saddams reputed former bodyguard and look-alike, Mikhael Ramadan. Published by a small press in the United Kingdom in 1999, the authors sensational allegations about Saddams plans to wreak bioterror on the U.S. were featured that same year in the New Yorker Magazine: West Nile Mystery by Richard Preston. Preston quoted from the Ramadan account: In 1997, on almost the last occasion we met, Saddam summoned me to his study. Seldom had I seen him so elated. Unlocking the top right-hand drawer of his desk, he produced a bulky, leather-bound dossier and read extracts from
[CTRL] Horowitz Agrees With Leahy: 'West Nile Probable Bioattack'

Suspects include Iraqi terrorists who apparently received their initial stocks of the West Nile Virus from the United States, according to public health officials, as recorded in the Congressional Record. Among experts providing Congressional testimony in support of Sen. Leahy's thesis is, Dr. Leonard Horowitz, a Harvard graduate and independent investigator whose thirteenth book, Death in the Air: Globalism, Terrorism and Toxic Warfare, predated the 9-11 attacks by three months. The book focuses on the West Nile Virus as part of a biological weapons arsenal shipped to Iraq during the 1980s. Dr. Horowitz testified before the Government Reform Committee on Capitol Hill on April 18 of this year regarding evidence he compiled showing that vaccine makers for the West Nile Virus and anthrax were suspects in the outbreaks and mailings. Supportive evidence includes records from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, submitted to Congress, showing that a pharmaceutical industry and bioweapons supplier - the American Type Culture Collection in Maryland - shipped Iraqi laboratories more than nineteen shipments of anthrax and two containers of the West Nile Virus, during the 1980s. Dr. Horowitz believes that the recent outbreaks and anthrax mailings, including the ones to Senators Leahy and Majority Leader Tom Dashle, are part of a fear-rousing bioterrorist agenda solely benefiting a consortium of mostly foreign-owned vaccine, drug, and chemical companies historically linked to such activities. An excellent example, Dr. Horowitz said, is the Michigan-based Bioport company. This infamous producer of America's anthrax vaccine, vigorously sanctioned in the past by Congress and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for their untrustworthyness, is directed by a wealthy Saudi industrialist with purported ties to the bin Laden family or their investments. Bioport's operating plans were discovered by American forces when they took control of an Osama bin Laden encampment in Afghanistan. News reports about West Nile Virus (WNV) spreading across America have also missed obvious links to the global biological weapons trade. Dr. Horowitz, who urgently alerted the FBI concerning what he viewed was a developing anthrax mailings scam a week before it was announced in the press, shared views supportive to Senator Leahy's during an nationally televised interview on FOX News last month (See August 23rd segment at http://www.healingcelebrations.com/wes). During a meeting with Senator Daschle's staff on April 17, and again the following day before the Government Reform Committee chaired by Rep. Dan Burton (R-IN), Dr. Horowitz alerted officials regarding a possible profit motive for recent epidemics, outbreaks, and anthrax attacks. His written testimony (Available at: http://www.tetrahedron.org/articles/vaccine_awareness/antecendent s_epidemic_autism.html ) reflected on Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Tommy Thompson's unprecedented half-billion dollars worth of anthrax and smallpox vaccine purchases, made shortly after the anthrax mailings. Dr. Horowitz noted with suspicion that these exact purchases fulfilled the request made by the chief anthrax vaccine developer at Bioport, Dr. Robert C. Myers, as entered into the Congressional Record in 1999. The mailings, he believes, provided the perfect wag-the-dog impetus for the government expenditures. Senator Leahy referred to an October 1999 issue of The New Yorker that disclosed that the West Nile Virus arrived in New York (other reports specify Rockefeller University labs) closely following the germ,s isolation in 1937. It was shipped to New York by virologists working in northwest Uganda - precisely where the Ebola virus, known to be the world's best biological weapon, is believed to have originated. This area of central Africa is also known as the heart of the African AIDS belt.

-Caveat Lector- .. From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed] Note: We store 100's of related New Paradigms Posts at: http://www.msen.com/~lloyd/oldprojects/recentmail.html Subject: Don't Believe in Coincidences [West Nile] John LeBoutillier Wednesday, June 14, 2000 I dont believe in coincidences. Here are two so-called coincidences neither of which is anything but a deliberate act of malicious behavior against the United States: I do not believe these lost or stolen computer hard drives at our Los Alamos laboratory disappeared coincidentally during the confusion from a calamitous fire admittedly set by our own government! What is more likely is that our government has been dangerously penetrated to the point where someone either set the fire with the intent to steal these valuable nuclear secrets or else used the fire as the distraction needed to steal these hard drives. Amazingly, neither the media nor the congressmen and senators who grilled Energy Secretary Bill Richardson yesterday even raised the possibility of a deliberate linkage between the fire and the theft/loss of these secrets. We have learned that under the Clinton administration nothing should be ignored. Anything is possible. The most innocent of explanations should be discarded; the worst implication should be drawn. My guess is that the Chinese have deeply penetrated the Clinton administration. So deeply, in fact, that Clinton himself is not beyond suspicion. The Chinese military sees an invaluable window of opportunity closing when Clinton leaves office. So the time to strike is now. Having learned what is where at Los Alamos, all that remained was a way to get those hard drives out of the lab. The controlled burn was the perfect distraction. Whatever happened will never be revealed. If suddenly in the next few days the Energy Department suddenly finds the lost hard drives, dont believe it. That will be a cover story; the truth is the labs secrecy has been forever violated and we have to assume for security purposes that all our enemies worldwide may very well have total access to all our nuclear secrets. A proper president would do the following: a) fire Richardson immediately; b) close Los Alamos permanently; c) investigate every single human being who works or has recently worked at Los Alamos from the head of the lab down to the parking lot attendant; d) investigate everyone even tangentially involved in setting the forest fire including upper-level bureaucrats who may have known of the burn before it was initiated. Clinton, of course, is an improper president. He will do none of the above. Coincidence No. 2 is last falls sudden appearance in the New York metropolitan area of an outbreak of West Nile fever. Never before had this Middle Eastern virus been seen in the United States. Then it suddenly is found in people and in birds in the borough of Queens and then in other areas around New York City. Several elderly people died from West Nile; many others were severely ill and hospitalized because of this mysterious disease. Again the media and the Congress were and remain lax in linking up two related facts. U.N. weapons inspector Scott Ridder has revealed that Saddam Husseins Iraqi scientists were working on West Nile virus! Why were Ridder and the United Nations inspecting Iraq at all? Because of evidence that Saddam was developing weapons of mass destruction and biological agents, as well. Thus the United Nations kept severe sanctions on Iraq until Saddam was proven to be in compliance with U.N. mandates on his government. Saddams country is suffering because of these sanctions. And Saddam was so furious that the U.N. would not lift these sanctions that he finally threw out the inspectors. Do you believe that this clever and devious madman would just sit idly by while the United Nations kept turning the screws on his regime? Do you believe it is a coincidence that this virus suddenly then appeared directly across the East River from U.N. headquarters? As I said, I do not believe in coincidences at least not when it comes to cases involving liars and deceivers such as Clinton and Saddam.

The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told The Associated Press there's no evidence Iraq or any other foreign government was involved. The CIA looked into rumors which appeared in British media and elsewhere, the official said. City officials also played down any suggestions of bioterrorism. Nothing indicates that this was anything other than a natural outbreak, Jerome Hauer, director of the city's emergency management office, said Sunday. The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also said there was no evidence to suggest the recent outbreak was anything other than Mother Nature at work. Analysts at the CIA who deal with biological weapons said an Iraqi defector had claimed in April that Saddam Hussein was developing a strain of West Nile-like encephalitis for use as a biological weapon, The New Yorker reported in its issue that hit newsstands today. The defector's report was published April 6 in the Daily Mail of London. It was an except from the book In the Shadow of Saddam, written by Mikhael Ramadan. Ramadan claimed that he worked as one of Saddam's body doubles and that the Iraqi president had told him of a plan to develop a strain of West Nile encephalitis that would kill 97 percent of people in an urban environment. The magazine said Ramadan was believed to be hiding somewhere in North America. A strain of a West Nile-like virus has claimed the lives of six people in the New York area since it was discovered in early September. The mosquito-borne virus has infected at least 54 people in the metropolitan area. Symptoms of the strain include fever and headache. In rare cases, the virus can cause neurological disorders and death. The elderly, young and those with weakened immune systems are most vulnerable.

[CTRL] ENCEPHALITIS OUTBREAK, HUSSEIN AND CASTRO: A CIA /CDC COVER-UP?
-Caveat Lector- .. From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed] Note: We store 100's of related New Paradigms Posts at: http://www.msen.com/~lloyd/oldprojects/recentmail.html Subject: ENCEPHALITIS OUTBREAK, HUSSEIN AND CASTRO: A CIA /CDC COVER-UP? Ernesto Betancourt The October 18-25 issue of The New Yorker carries a well researched story by Richard Preston that has created quite a furor: the possibility that the mysterious encephalitis outbreak in New York City was really a deliberate bioterrorist attack generated by Iraqs Saddam Hussein. The CIA was described as being deeply involved in research on biological terrorism and potentially interested in following up the Iraqi connection. However, according to a report on 10/12/99 in The Washington Post, a CIA anonymous spokesman arrogantly refuted the story without offering any explanation to the mysterious outbreak. In fact, he stated To imply that there is an investigation gives it more credibility than it deserves. Regardless of whether or not Iraq is involved in this specific outbreak case, The New Yorker article offers an interesting lead into possible Cuba-Iraq cooperation in germ warfare that should not be ignored. On page 105 of the magazine, a quotation is made of a conversation in which Saddam refers to a dossier about details of his ultimate weapon, developed in secret laboratories outside Iraq...Free of UN inspection, the laboratories would develop the SV1417 strain of the West Nile virus--capable of destroying 97 percent of all life in an urban environment... Now, where could such a research be undertaken? A few characteristics will help narrow our location choices: it must have a technological capability to undertake such research; it must be a country friendly to Iraq and hostile to the US; it must be outside the reach of any UN inspection; it must be a close society, where these activities can be free of press coverage; and, it must be located within the reach of migratory birds. There is only one place on earth that meets those requirements: Castros Cuba. Under Castros close supervision, as will be explained further, a program for using migratory birds to introduce epidemics into the US has been going on in Cuba since the early eighties. In the recently released book Biohazard, former Soviet Colonel Ken Alibek, reports that his boss in the Soviet germ warfare program returned from Cuba stating: the Cubans have developed a germ warfare capability. This is a fairly reliable and well informed source. Besides, the comment was made in a context that was neither accusatory nor politically motivated. It was a private conversation among colleagues. There are many other indications that Cuba meets the technology capability requirement, including the report presented last year on the Cuba threat to US security by Secretary of Defense William Cohen recognizing that Cubas capabilities in Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology could be directed to develop such weapons, although the US had no evidence at that time it had done so. No report is known on any Cuban effort to develop weapon delivery systems. However, Secretary Cohens comment does not exclude the possibility that the Pentagon was not looking for migratory birds and mosquitoes as delivery systems. In conclusion, Cuba certainly meets the technology capability requirement. Castros hostility to the US is so well known that it does not require any documentation. As to friendly relations with Iraq, the links go back to the so-called Non-Aligned Movement meeting in Cuba back in 1979. Castro even provided doctors to perform back surgery on Hussein. As a fellow rogue state, Cuba has always supported Iraq at the UN against the US. Getting closer to possible cooperation on germ warfare activities between the two countries, there is an intriguing piece of news. Dr. Manuel Limonta, Director of the Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, an institution suspected of being a cover for germ warfare research and development, was reported in June this year to have been dismissed from his position amid widespread rumors of corruption in his dealings with Iraq. On June 29, 1999, the regime officially reported his dismissal, although with the clarification that no corruption was involved. But the reference to Iraq reflects the fact that there is some exchange going on between the two countries in this field. This industry is managed under the direct supervision of Castro, with his personal Support and Coordination Group acting parallel to the formal chain of command. Contrary to reports indicating it is an industry open and accessible, there are reports of plants kept under very tight security rules. In fact, a July 1993 UNDP mission to draft a program to provide management assistance and training to the industry ended in failure when an American member of that mission

MESSAGE BOARD Bugs, bugs, bugs How to protect yourself: Dr. Gigi El-Bayoumi, associate professor of internal medicine at George Washington University, recommends taking these precautions against encephalitis and other insect-borne diseases: Wear long, protective clothing Stay inside at dusk and dawn, the times when mosquito bites are most likely Use insect repellents containing the active ingredient DEET Spray both skin and clothing with the repellent Our direction does not come from the CIA to investigate a disease outbreak, CDC spokeswoman Barbara Reynolds said. The disease center was responding to an article in The New Yorker magazine that hit the newstands Monday. The article reported that the CIA was looking into claims by an Iraqi defector that Saddam Hussein was developing a strain of West Nile-like virus for use as a biological weapon. A CIA official said Monday that the agency had looked into rumors that the outbreak was the work of terrorists and concluded it wasn't. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told The Associated Press there's no evidence Iraq or any other foreign government was involved. Until this summer's outbreak, no illnesses attributed to the West Nile-like virus had been confirmed in the Western Hemisphere. The CIA did contact the disease agency recently after a London newspaper published a book review six months ago. The book ... said that Saddam Hussein wanted to use the virus in some nefarious way, Reynolds said Sunday. CDC will not 'rule anything' out Reynolds said that CDC investigators are not going to rule anything in or anything out. But the possibility of bioterrorism is at the bottom of the list for how some outbreak may have occurred. We're investigating a disease outbreak by invitation of a state and local health department, Reynolds said. It appears Mother Nature is at work, she added. Nothing indicates that this was anything other than a natural outbreak, Jerome Hauer, the director of New York City's emergency management office, said Sunday. A strain of a West Nile-like virus has claimed the lives of six people in the New York area since it was discovered in early September. The mosquito-borne virus has infected 54 people in the New York metropolitan area -- 39 in New York City, nine in Westchester County and six in Nassau. Crows that tested positive for the virus have been found in six New Jersey counties. The virus lives in crows and other birds as well as mosquitoes. There have been no confirmed cases in New Jersey of the virus in humans, the New Jersey Department of Health spokeswoman Rita Manno said Sunday. Symptoms of the strain include fever and headache. In rare cases, the virus can cause neurological disorders and death.

Or, are the American people cursed? Which is it? Judge for yourself... Early in the 19th Century, as a result of White House ordered violent mistreatment of American Indians and violation by the White House of solemn Treaties with the Indian tribe leaders, the Indians put a curse on the U.S. Presidency. Every President, starting with 1840, so the curse goes, elected in a year ending in zero, will either die in office, or be assassinated or removed. Ronald Reagan, elected in 1980, is not really an exception. In 1981, he survived an attempted political assassination, falsely blamed on a lone nut gunman whose family was in business with then Vice President George Herbert Walker Bush. Take your pick. It was either a scheme to blackmail Daddy Bush or to shove him by murder into the Oval Office. Seldom mentioned. In the U.S., reporters have to get press credentials from the U.S. Secret Service who checks out their background, not permitting outs! poken types to have the same.Without such press passes, the journalists cannot attend important press conferences. To avoid becoming unemployable, no paid press correspondents have dared to criticize those who guard the President and have other duties, such as checking for counterfeit currency and stolen credit cards.

Prior to Internet, and public access Cable TV, and more widespread talk radio, our only way to broadcast our findings was through a bank of thirty telephones hooked together playing a 5-minute recorded message of our work. (We got that bunch of phones in a cheap deal with the phone company using our own phone answering devices.) In 1975, we began broadcasting exclusive details of the suppressed story of three or more genuine plots to assassinate Pr! esident Gerald Ford, installed, not elected, in the downfall by Waterg ate charges of President Richard M. Nixon. Itching to be president by such political murder was Vice President Nelson A. Rockefeller who was not elected but installed by operation of the 25th Amendment, added to the U.S. Constitution eight years prior by a stealthy campaign by the Rockefeller Family. In 1975, for a period of time, all of our phones were blocked, without court orders or legal formality, by the Secret Service that did not like our candid details and about their duplicitous cover-up, on behalf of the American aristocracy, of the plots against Ford. In 1985, two Secret Service agents tried to directly scare us. Without a court order or search warrant, they tried to force their way into my private residence. This was ten days before the second Inauguration of Ronald Reagan. They did not like our outspoken exclusive stories about the criminality of Ronnie and his sidekick, George Herbert Walker Bush. Standing defiantly at my door on my braces and crutches as a ! paraplegic, I told them I did not accept the validity of their Commission Books (how they describe their credentials) and that false ones were used as part of the trick in 1963 in Dealey Plaza. Further, I said The only way you are getting in, is to knock me down, break in the door, or use a 'black bag job' (secret break entry). As an alternative to the stand-off, they finally agreed to sit in the back of a car while I and a pal sat in the front. Using a small flashlight, they pointed to an alleged letter they received threatening harm against me. Look, I am not a candidate for President. Hence, you have no jurisdiction to being supposedly guarding me. They asked, Who do you think sent this letter to us threatening you? Sarcastically, I replied, Oh stop this. You sent it to yourself as an excuse to come here to heckle me. While I had their attention, I pointed out how agents of their service violated all kinds of their own regulations, failing to inspect and gu! ard while President John F. Kennedy's motorcade slowed down to a crawl while navigating a fatal hairpin turn in Dallas. Then, I dared tell them, Look, throughout history, to kill the King you need the aid of the Palace Guard. That is YOU and your agency who have been complicit in every political murder of a President in U.S. history. So, bet on it. This story is not going to sit well with the U.S. Secret Service.

Rumor Mill News Reading Room Forum Sharon in 911 War Provocation? Posted By: Rosalinda Date: Thursday, 29 August 2002, 7:25 p.m. In Response To: IMMINENT DANGER OF A REPEAT OF 911 (Rosalinda) - Sharon in 911 War Provocation? - - by Jeffrey Steinberg - AUG. 28, (EIRNS)--Among senior intelligence analysts in the United States, the Arab world and Israel, there is a growing fear that Ariel Sharon is about to covertly launch a Sept. 11-type terrorist attack, targeting the United States--in order to drag President George W. Bush into a war against Iraq. Two factors may be impelling Sharon to take such provocative measures. First, there is a growing chorus of leading U.S. military figures, active duty and retired, and prominent Republican Party foreign policy mandarins, who are voicing strong opposition to the war against Saddam Hussein's Iraq. On Aug. 25, former Secretary of State James Baker III added his name to the list of opponents of a unilateral American attack on Iraq on the oped page of the New York Times. The previous day, the Tampa Tribune had reported that Gen. Anthony Zinni (USMC-ret.), who was the last Commander-in-Chief of the Central Command, and who is now an advisor to Secretary of State Colin Powell, came out strongly against an Iraq attack, warning of grave strategic consequences. Zinni also assailed the group of Bush Administration neo-con war advocates, who never served a day in uniform. This whole grouping--including Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, James Woolsey, Rep. Tom DeLay (R-Tex.), and even Vice President Dick Cheney, is being widely referred to as the ``chickenhawks.'' ``It's pretty interesting,'' Zinni told an audience in Tallahassee, Fla., ``that all the generals see it the same way, and all the others, who have never fired a shot and are hot to go to war, see it another way.''

Having told us last year that American workers should not be asked to bail out a failed foreign political class in Argentina, he now has the temerity to tell their Brazilian brethren that they can only expect help if the monies do not all mysteriously vanish from local accounts, to nestle safely and anonymously amid the verdant uplands of Switzerland. What was he thinking of? Does he not know that the whole IMF-US Treasury carpet-bagging strategy of full-spectrum dominance is based on promoting unproductive government-led indebtedness abroad, at increasingly usurious rates of interest, and then either before or, more often these days, after, the point of default bailing out the Western banks who have been the agents provocateurs of this financial Operation Overlord, with newly-minted dollars, to the detriment of the citizenry at home? Is he not aware that, subsequent to the collapse, these latter-day Reconstructionists must be allowed to swoop and to buy controlling ownership stakes in resources and productive capital made ludicrously cheap by devaluation, or outright monetary collapse? Does he not understand that he must simultaneously coerce the target nation into sweating its people to churn out export goods in order to service the newly refinanced debt, in addition to piling up excess dollar reserves as a supposed bulwark against future speculative attacks (usually financed by the same Western banks lending to their Special Forces colleagues at the macro hedge funds) thus ensuring the reverse mercantilism of Rubinomics is maintained? How else does he think US consumers will be flooded with cheap tradable goods and so come to turn a blind eye to the rising service prices and deteriorating standards which the Feds monetary incontinence promotes (Look, Ma! No inflation!)? How else will foreigners put both licit and illicit dollars to work propping up those same, now-uncompetitive US consumers debt burdens by buying their paper, as well as in funding the New Economy CEOs Ponzi schemes and so boosting their stock prices beyond all sanity again creating the illusion that all is well? So come on Paul! If the local political and financial elite are not to get a mess of pottage in the course of all this often washed through the bond market, or through their very own version of the Great IPO PumpnDump scam in the IMF-mandated privatization of banks (Gracias to our compadres in the Money Trust) and utilities (greatly helping the likes of the dearly departed Enron in their own shell games) what other incentive do they have to surrender their own peoples birthrights in order to prop up the decaying Anglomercantile financier class and their political stooges? Of course, the diplomatic telegrams to Brazil were flying furiously after ONeills gaffe, in a desperate attempt at damage limitation, though there was no word whether or not he had been booked into an emergency weekend indoctrination session at the Council for Foreign Relations to set him back on the straight and narrow. The Real, as a result, had fallen as low as 3.60 to the US Dollar, marking a near 60% drop in just the past three months to record lows. Can you imagine that, only as recently as 1993, there were $217 to the Real?! Meanwhile, the stock index or BOVESPA dropped by a third and the premium the government had to pay to borrow soared more than threefold from 6.9% over US Treasury yields to a crippling 24.3% (and, no, that is NOT a misprint) before ONeill could say his Mea Culpas and arrange for a $1.5 billion payment of Danegeld to Uruguay which, with delicious irony is widely dubbed the Switzerland of South America!! Really, you couldnt get this stuff past the scriptwriting on The Young and the Restless! Thus, the biggest economy in Latin America stands on the verge of default and its foreign lenders on the hook for a cool $135 billion, more than twice the size of the pile at stake when neighbouring Argentina blew up in January will be chewing anxiously at their fingernails. Just so you know whose bank is likely to be begging its government to bail it out of this latest triumph of Dollar Imperialism, US lenders are on the hook for $31 billion (one Robert E. Rubins new shop for around 40% of that), the Spanish are in for $24 billion, the Dutch and British for around $15 billion each, and the Germans for $11 billion. Now, Western banks, you

Skolnick [EMAIL PROTECTED] A HREF=www.skolnicksreport.comwww.skolnicksreport.com/A 7-22-2 Subject: Rockefeller In The White House The name Rockefeller does not sit well with the American public. Some have heard how the Rockefellers, like others of the great American fortunes, piled up their loot. And it was not by merit or humanitarian ideas. Old man John D. Rockefeller used violent methods. On occasion, he would bomb his own facilities and blame it on his competitors. He used strong-arm ways and bribery. For example, the Rockefellers bought the Pennsylvania State Legislature, and used it as if it were a whole owned subsidiary and rubber stamp to validate their oily business. Early in the 20th Century, a crusader with her books and articles on the infamous Rockefellers was Ida Tarbell. By 1911, the U.S. Supreme Court finally got around to breaking up the poisonous Standard Oil Trust. Many decades later, however, the Rockefellers in the meantime having purchased or blackmailed the U.S. Government, the bloody Standard Oil Empire was re-combined using misleading names like Amoco, Chevron, and Exxon. In 1914, the Rockefellers ordered their henchmen to murder women and children, caught up in the midst of a strike of a Rockefeller industrial unit in Colorado. In the midst of World War Two, the Rockefellers made treasonous deals with Nazi big business, such as with the chemical giant, I.G. Farben, poison gas producers for the concentration camps, concealing and sharing profits through South American countries as go-betweens. [Trading With the Enemy by Charles Higham.] The founder of the Kennedy fortune, old man Joseph P. Kennedy, as U.S. Ambassador to Britain, brokered a treasonous deal between the Rockefellers and Farben. In 1939, three weeks AFTER the war started, Ambassador Kennedy arranged to have the Standard Oil/Farben deal back-dated as if made PRIOR to the onset of the war. [The Crime and Punishment of I.G. Farben, by Joseph Borkin. And more, as to the Kennedy Family and the Nazis, Joseph P. Kennedy, a Hollywood kingpin, arranged for the movie industry not to me! ntion the Nazi concentration camps. See the book, Child of the Century by Ben Hecht, Simon Schuster, N.Y.,N.Y.,1954, page 520.] When you are aware of all the facts, it is not so strange that during the war, the Allies did NOT bomb I.G. Farben's huge facilities in Nazi Germany. According to a documented study by a U.S. Military Officer, at the close of the war, Farben's plants were 93 per cent intact. [I.G. Farben, by Richard Sasuly, Boni Gaer Publ., N.Y., N.Y., 1947.] Because of some mental quirk, one of the Rockefellers, Nelson A., unlike his siblings, wanted to have his face and presence well known to the public. As Governor of New York, he was always photographed smiling, even when he was taxing the nails out of the shoes of the common people of the Empire State. The Kennedy Family has been loaded with historical contradictions. For example, as part of the military-industrial complex, the Rockefellers had an interest in the political assassination of President John F. Kennedy who opposed their role in America's conspiratorial PRIVATE central bank, the so-called FEDERAL Reserve. As documented in a book about the Dallas murder, long suppressed in the U.S. but now finally released, President Kennedy wanted to scrap the tax loop hole, fraudulently favoring the petroleum industry, the oil depletion allowance. [A whole chapter on oil is in the book Farewell America, written by the French CIA under the pen-name James Hepburn, previously since 1968, not allowed to be sold in U.S. bookstores, but finally available through some on-line booksellers, like Amazon.com] Taking over as President after JFK was the victim of a public execution in 1963, was Lyndon B. Johnson who had been Vice President. [Some contend the Kennedys reluctantly put him on the Democrat ticket at the 1960 convention, after Johnson threatened to publicly finger the Kennedy Family and their Nazi links.] BUT, there was a defect in the U.S. Constitution. There was no provision to fill the Vice President slot vacancy except by future election. So, up to the 1964 Presidential Election, Johnson served WITHOUT a Vice President. Scheming, on their own time-table, to put the Big Oil cabal into the White House, the Rockefeller Family championed and arranged to have enacted in 1967, the U.S. Constitution's 25th Amendment, providing by appointment for the line of succession as to the Vice Presidency. The Rockefellers understood full well that to grab the Oval Office they first have to capture the office of Vice President as a backdoor

Much of the information in this article is drawn from Metal of Dishonor. In a dangerous legal precedent and complete violation of constitutional rights, a U.S. citizen is being held without the rights of due process or freedom from unreasonable seizure. Abdullah al Muhajir, a Puerto Rican Muslim from Chicago formerly known as Jose Padilla, is being accused of planning to build a radioactive dirty bomb to attack a U.S. city. According to news reports, Muhajir had no accomplices, no materials, no access to materials and no training in making such a bomb. The prosecution's secret evidence is so flimsy that the government acknowledges it is not likely to obtain an indictment from a grand jury. In the current political climate, U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft would likely have no trouble getting an indictment if there was any evidence at all. Muhajir is being held without charges under the legal category of enemy combatant, despite the fact that Congress has not declared war. He was brought to New York, moved to a South Carolina naval brig and then to Department of Defense custody. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said Muhajir may never get a trial. But the very charge that Muhajir may have discussed the idea of unleashing a radioactive bomb is so ominous that it has silenced the U.S. corporate media and many civil rights organizations. Using the charge that an unfolding terrorist plot to attack the United States with a radioactive 'dirty bomb' had been disrupted, U.S. government attacks on civil rights and civil liberties have reached an ominous new level. While in Moscow on June 10, Ashcroft called a dramatic press conference to announce Muhajir's arrest. Ashcroft announced that the FBI and the CIA, working together, had uncovered this nefarious plot. Ashcroft assured the media that such a bomb would have caused mass death and injury. Muhajir had been held incommunicado since his arrest on May 8 at O'Hare International Airport. Ashcroft's grand announcement in Moscow--five weeks after Muhajir's arrest--conveniently coincided with President George Bush's unveiling of a new Homeland Security Department. Who are real 'dirty bombers'? A quick search on the Internet reveals hundreds of news stories debating the possible problems of evacuating major U.S. cities if a terrorist group set off a radioactive dirty bomb. What is a dirty bomb? Has such a dangerous radioactive weapon ever been used? Who would dream of unleashing radioactive materials, especially on unprotected and defenseless civilian targets? Reports in the U.S. corporate media have described in great detail that a dirty bomb combines conventional explosives-even dynamite-with radioactive material. An explosion can spew radiation over a large area. However, not one of the hundreds of news reports dares to state the truth: The United States is the only country that has extensively used radioactive dirty bombs all over the world. The Pentagon's dirty bombs are made with a core of highly toxic and radioactive depleted uranium (DU) packed in a conventional explosive. By their own admission, the U.S. government has used thousands of these radioactive bombs in Iraq and Yugoslavia. Angry mass movements have forced the U.S. government to acknowledge that it has test-fired these radioactive weapons at U.S. bases in Okinawa, Japan, Vieques, Puerto Rico, and south Korea. The army has also tested these weapons at more than 25 domestic sites, including Aberdeen Proving Grounds in Maryland, according to a 1995 Army Environmental Policy Institute report. Why the Pentagon uses DU Radioactive waste is not difficult to obtain. It's given away free to U.S. weapons manufacturers. So it is an enormously profitable weapon for military contractors. Uranium is a heavy metal--twice as heavy as lead. Weapons made with DU have greater range and higher accuracy than conventional weapons. The problem is that DU is both toxic and radioactive. It is also pyrophoric, meaning that it burns fiercely on impact

money has bolstered US financial markets. The CIA's decades of managing the drug trade around the world has also built up US financial markets, and it has created a global network of criminal clients, proxy armies, and tainted banks which are dependent on government protection. The US and Saudi Arabia, along with Pakistan, built up the Islamic Mujaheddin in Afghanistan to overthrow the socialist government there and weaken Soviet influence in Central Asia. In the process, they built up the heroin trade, making Afghanistan ! ! the source of about two-thirds of the world's supply (the author's Guns and Drugs: The CIA's Admissions treats CIA drug dealing in depth, and his Where the Narcodollars Go explains the relationship between drugs, banks, and stock markets). Osama bin Laden was a key figure in this arrangement. After the Soviet Union left, the US-Saudi-Pakistani axis arranged for the Taliban to take over almost all of Afghanistan (along with its opium trade). Islamist terrorist groups, while increasingly hostile to the US and its values, nonetheless provide vital services to the US foreign policy establishment: they are formidable clandestine warriors, they manage much of the drug and weapons trade and other criminal enterprises, they have worldwide financial networks, and they provide a highly visible threat to the West. However, as long as the upper levels of Western financial and intelligence communities can manipulate the Islamists and infiltrate their upper levels, they can remain relatively safe and take advantage of the havoc the terrorists wreak in other countries and even the US. While rank-and-file FBI and State Department agents are trying to neutralize the terrorists, the top-level CIA, State Department, and FBI officials continue to protect them and their financial and criminal networks, to the benefit of the large US banks and multinational corporations. The corporations also use the terrorists as guards to protec! ! t their investments in far-flung places. The US has been building military and economic ties to the former Soviet republics just north of Afghanistan for years, while maintaining its close working relationships with Saudi Arabia and Pakistan and sheltering the Islamic terrorists. As early as 1997, an accused Islamic terrorist testified to plans to crash hijacked airliners into civilian targets, and in late 2000 the Pentagon rehearsed its response to just such an attack. Security forces guarded the G8 summit in Genoa from suicide pilots, but US officials say they had no idea anyone was planning attacks with airplanes. From June up to early September 2001 US authorities received at least nine warnings which have been reported in the open press. Five of these came from other intelligence agencies, three mentioned airplanes as weapons, two others mentioned flying, one mentioned airports or government buildings, three mentioned the World Trade Center, and one mentioned the Pentagon. Besides this, Attorney General Ashcro! ! ft had stopped using commercial airlines due to a threat assessment, President Bush had been briefed on the possibility of an al-Qaeda hijack, FBI reports about known al-Qaeda members and flying lessons had been quashed, and an astounding number of highly suspicious stock trades had been overlooked. The warning from Canada, which mentioned both the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and correctly specified the date, originated from a US Naval Intelligence officer whom the Pentagon had disowned and the US was trying to extradite. About two months before the attacks former US diplomats put out an unofficial message that the US would attack Afghanistan in mid-October, two days before the attacks US planners finished contingency plans for a war on al-Qaeda and Afghanistan, and tens of thousand of US and allied troops (including two aircraft carrier battle groups) were converging in the area around Afghanistan for exercises. Since the rout of the Taliban, oil companies are signing deals for pipelines across Afghanistan and the heroin business is booming as never before (and the US has exempted the provisional Afghan government from penalties for its failure to stop drugs while that government has gutted its drug eradication agency). Considering all this, some people wonder whether there is more to the September 11 attacks than the US government is telling. *** Lloyd Miller, Research Director for A-albionic Research (POB 20273, Ferndale, MI 48220), a ruling class/conspiracy research resource for the entire political-ideological spectrum.

The explosive story of the 5 suspicious Israelis seen celebrating while filming the attacks on the World Trade Center was first reported nationally in American Free Press shortly after September 11. ABC News recently reported on this story and added a comment that deserves attention. The Forward, a respected Jewish newspaper in New York, reported that at least two of the men were Israeli intelligence (Mossad) agents. The Israeli agents were first seen filming the attack on the WTC while kneeling on the roof of a white van in the parking lot of a New Jersey apartment building across the river from lower Manhattan. They seemed to be taking a movie, the resident who noticed them said. The men were taking video or photos of themselves with the World Trade Center burning in the background, she said. What struck her were the expressions on the men's faces. They were like happy, you know . They didn't look shocked to me. I thought it was very strange, she said. She found the behavior so suspicious that she wrote down the license plate number of the van and called the police. The FBI was soon on the scene and a statewide bulletin was issued on the van. The van belonged to a Mossad front company called Urban Moving Systems. Around 4 p. m. on Sept. 11, the van was pulled over, and five Israelis: Sivan and Paul Kurzberg, Yaron Shmuel, Oded Ellner and Omer Marmari, all between 22 and 27 years old, were arrested at gunpoint. One had $4,700 in cash hidden in his sock while another carried two foreign passports. Box cutters were found in the van. WE ARE NOT YOUR PROBLEM According to the police report, one of the men said they had been on the West Side Highway in Manhattan during the incident - referring to the World Trade Center attack. Sivan Kurzberg, the driver, said, We are Israeli. We are not your problem. Your problems are our problems. The Palestinians are the problem. The case was turned over to the FBI's Foreign Counterintelligence Section because the FBI believed Urban Moving Systems was a cover for an Israeli intelligence operation, ABC reported. While the FBI searched the company's Weehawken, N. J., offices, removing boxes of documents and a dozen computer hard drives, the owner of the company, Dominic Suter, was allowed to flee the country. When FBI agents tried to interview Suter a second time they discovered that he had cleared out of his New Jersey home and fled to Israel. When ABC reporters visited Urban Moving Systems, it looked as if it had been shut down in a big hurry. Cell phones were lying around; office phones were still connected; and the property of dozens of clients remained in the warehouse. The Israelis had been held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, for overstaying their tourist visas and working in the United States illegally. Two weeks after their arrest, an immigration judge ordered them to be deported, however, FBI and CIA officials in Washington put a hold on the case, according to ABC. The five men were held in detention for more than two months. Some of them were placed in solitary confinement for 40 days and given as many as seven lie-detector tests. One of them, Paul Kurzberg, refused to take a lie-detector test for 10 weeks and then failed it, according to his lawyer. OUR PURPOSE WAS TO DOCUMENT THE EVENT. A deal was struck between Israeli and U. S. government officials after 71 days and the five Israelis were put on a plane, and deported to Israel. The detained Israelis discussed their experience in America on an Israeli talk show after their return home. One of the men said: The fact of the mat ter is we are coming from a country that experiences terror daily.

Lloyd Miller, A-albionic Research quote Who Is Bin Laden? CIA Trains Their Terrorists Well; (continued) by MICHEL CHOSSUDOVSKY In the words of former National Security Adviser, Lawrence Eagleburger, I think we will show when we get attacked like this, we are terrible in our strength and in our retribution. Meanwhile, parroting official statements, the Western media mantra has approved the launching of punitive actions directed against civilian targets in the Middle East. In the words of William Safire writing in the New York Times: When we reasonably determine our attackers' bases and camps, we must pulverize them -- minimizing but accepting the risk of collateral damage -- and act overtly or covertly to destabilize terror's national hosts. The following text outlines the history of Ousmane Bin Laden and the links of the Islamic Jihad to the formulation of US foreign policy during the Cold War and its aftermath. Prime suspect in the New York and Washington terrorists attacks, branded by the FBI as an international terrorist for his role in the African US embassy bombings, Saudi born Ousmane bin Laden was recruited during the Soviet-Afghan war ironically under the auspices of the CIA, to fight Soviet invaders. 1 In 1979 the largest covert operation in the history of the CIA was launched in response to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in support of the pro-Communist government of Babrak Kamal.2: With the active encouragement of the CIA and Pakistan's ISI [Inter Services Intelligence], who wanted to turn the Afghan jihad into a global war waged by all Muslim states against the Soviet Union, some 35,000 Muslim radicals from 40 Islamic countries joined Afghanistan's fight between 1982 and 1992. Tens of thousands more came to study in Pakistani madrasahs. Eventually more than 100,000 foreign Muslim radicals were directly influenced by the Afghan jihad.3 The Islamic jihad was supported by the United States and Saudi Arabia with a significant part of the funding generated from the Golden Crescent drug trade: In March 1985, President Reagan signed National Security Decision Directive 166,...[which] authorize[d] stepped-up covert military aid to the mujahideen, and it made clear that the secret Afghan war had a new goal: to defeat Soviet troops in Afghanistan through covert action and encourage a Soviet withdrawal. The new covert U.S. assistance began with a dramatic increase in arms supplies -- a steady rise to 65,000 tons annually by 1987, ... as well as a ceaseless stream of CIA and Pentagon specialists who traveled to the secret headquarters of Pakistan's ISI on the main road near Rawalpindi, Pakistan. There the CIA specialists met with Pakistani intelligence officers to help plan operations for the Afghan rebels.4 The Ce! ntral Intelligence Agency (CIA) using Pakistan's military Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) played a key role in training the Mujahideen. In turn, the CIA sponsored guerrilla training was integrated with the teachings of Islam: Predominant themes were that Islam was a complete socio-political ideology, that holy Islam was being violated by the atheistic Soviet troops, and that the Islamic people of Afghanistan should reassert their independence by overthrowing the leftist Afghan regime propped up by Moscow.5 Pakistan's Intelligence Apparatus Pakistan's ISI was used as a go-between. The CIA covert support to the jihad operated indirectly through the Pakistani ISI, - -i.e. the CIA did not channel its support directly to the Mujahideen. In other words, for these covert operations to be successful, Washington was careful not to reveal the ultimate objective of the jihad, which consisted in destroying the Soviet Union. In the words of CIA's Milton Beardman We didn't train Arabs. Yet according to Abdel Monam Saidali, of the Al-aram Center for Strategic Studies in Cairo, bin Laden and the Afghan Arabs had been imparted with very sophisticated types of training that was allowed to them by the !

The story says that, Throughout his stay in the hospital, Osama Bin Laden received visits from many family members [There goes the story that heís a black sheep! --MCR] and Saudi Arabian Emirate personalities of status. During this time the local representative of the CIA was seen by many people taking the elevator and going to bin Ladenís room. Several days later the CIA officer bragged to his friends about having visited the Saudi millionaire. From authoritative sources, this CIA agent visited CIA headquarters on July 15, the day after bin Ladenís departure for Quetta. According to various Arab diplomatic sources and French intelligence itself, precise information was communicated to the CIA concerning terrorist attacks aimed at American interests in the world, including its own territory. Extremely bothered, they [American intelligence officers in a meeting with French intelligence officers] requested from their French peers exact details about the Algerian activists [connected to bin Laden through Dubai banking institutions], without explaining the exact nature of their inquiry. When asked the question, ëWhat do you fear in the coming days?í the Americans responded with incomprehensible silence. On further investigation, the FBI discovered certain plans that had been put together between the CIA and its ëIslamic friendsí over the years. The meeting in Dubai is, so it would seem, consistent with 'a certain American policy.í Even though Le Figaro reported that it had confirmed with hospital staff that bin Laden had been there as reported, stories printed on Nov. 1 contained quotes from hospital staff that these reports were untrue. On Nov. 1, as reported by the Ananova press agency, the CIA flatly denied that any meeting between any CIA personnel and Osama bin Laden at any time. Who do you believe?

[CTRL] Terrorism as the Moral Equivalent of War
-Caveat Lector- .. Subject: Terrorism as the Moral Equivalent of War -- Terrorism as the Moral Equivalent of War by Lloyd Miller, Research Director, A-albionic Research [Reprinted from the Project June 1986] It has long been noted by conspiracy theorists that war provides a very useful function for the elite of any society. War justifies the sacrifices the elite must demand of the people and the regimentation to which the elite wants the people to submit. However, war also presents risks to elites especially since the advent of the atomic age. War might lead to a world devastating thermo-nuclear exchange. More to the point, only one side can win a war. As shown time and time again in history, the elite that loses a war often loses its ruling status as well. Is it conceivable that the conspiracy is planning a world of perpetual, phony terrorism, perhaps on the model of Northern Ireland? I am convinced the answer is yes, but cannot prove, and would rather not believe it! The strongest evidence in my mind is the constant and escalating preparation being given by the news media for the idea that widespread terrorism (low intensity war) is inevitable and probably just around the corner. Most recently the media has been harping on the ease with which terrorists can enter the USA. When the terror really heats-up and the sacrifice of liberty is demanded the elite wants it to be expected, not doubted! *** Lloyd Miller, Research Director for A-albionic Research (POB 20273, Ferndale, MI 48220), a ruling class/conspiracy research resource for the entire political-ideological spectrum.

REVIEW | June 3, 2002 Patriotism's Secret History by Peter Dreier Dick Flacks http://www.thenation.com/doc.mhtml?i=20020603c=1s=dreierhttp://www.thenation.com/doc.mhtml?i=20020603c=1s=http://www.thenation.com/doc.mhtml?i=20020603c=1s=dreierdreier Many Americans believe that the left is antipatriotic (and even anti-American), while the political right truly expresses the American spirit and reveres its symbols. Particularly since the late 1960s--when the movement against US intervention in Vietnam gained momentum--the terms progressive and patriotism have rarely been used in the same sentence, at least in the mainstream media. It has become conventional wisdom that conservatives wave the American flag while leftists burn it. Patriotic Americans display the flag on their homes; progressives turn it upside down to show contempt. Recent months have seen a dramatic increase in the number of Americans proudly displaying the Stars and Stripes on their cars, homes, businesses, T-shirts, caps, lapel pins and even tattoos. This outpouring of flag-waving signifies a variety of sentiments--from identification with the victims of the September 11 attacks to support for the military's invasion of Afghanistan. But in our popular culture, displays of the American flag are--along with the very idea of patriotism--typically viewed as expressions of conservative politics. The patriotic fervor since September 11 has revitalized that belief and, as in other times, has given conservative politicos and pundits a handy means to undermine dissent and progressive initiatives. A case in point: In Santa Barbara, California, progressive County Supervisor Gail Marshall is facing the possibility of a recall election fueled by right-wing forces opposed to her support for environmental regulation, affordable housing and labor unions. Because Marshall occupies the key swing seat on the five-member county board, Santa Barbara's conservative activists--funded by oil interests, agribusiness and land developers--have been trying to unseat her for years. They launched a recall campaign after Marshall refused to rubber-stamp a proposal to require the Pledge of Allegiance at meetings of one of her community advisory boards. Marshall said she wanted the board to discuss the idea, but her opponents--who made sure that TV camera crews were present at the meeting where the issue first surfaced--have turned her civil libertarian instincts into proof that she's hostile to public expressions of patriotism. In TV ads and newsletters, Marshall's opponents--who are gathering signatures for a recall petition that, if successful, will go before the voters this fall--claim that her alleged reluctance to have the pledge recited was clear confirmation of their suspicion that she is a socialist. Ironically, the Pledge of Allegiance was written in 1892 by a leading Christian socialist, Francis Bellamy, who was fired from his Boston ministry for his sermons depicting Jesus as a socialist. Bellamy penned the Pledge of Allegiance for Youth's Companion, a magazine for young people published in Boston with a circulation of about 500,000. A few years earlier, the magazine had sponsored a largely successful campaign to sell American flags to public schools. In 1891 the magazine hired Bellamy--whose first cousin Edward Bellamy was the famous socialist author of the utopian novel Looking Backward--to organize a public relations campaign to celebrate the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's discovery of America by promoting use of the flag in public schools. Bellamy gained the support of the National Education Association, along with President Benjamin Harrison and Congress, for a national ritual observance in the schools, and he wrote the Pledge of Allegiance as part of the program's flag salute ceremony. Bellamy thought such an event would be a powerful expression on behalf of free public education. Moreover, he wanted all the schoolchildren of America to recite the pledge at the same moment. He hoped the pledge would promote a moral vision to counter the individualism embodied in capitalism and expressed in the climate of the Gilded Age, with its robber barons and exploitation of workers. Bellamy intended the line One nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all to express a more collective and egalitarian vision of America. Bellamy's view that unbridled capitalism, materialism and individualism betrayed America's promise was widely shared in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Many American radicals and progressive reformers proudly asserted their patriotism. To them, America stood for basic democratic values--economic and social equality

The Pope's condemnation of the Israeli aggression, murder and terrorism would have otherwise swayed the opinion of a large, and not-too-easily ignored, part of the world. When the dust finally settles on the whole Catholic sexual abuse feeding frenzy, most of the charges will be shown to have been greatly exaggerated in number, fradulent and motivated by money, and, as usual in all sensationalist trial-by-media cases, just plain fabrications. Those of you with an anti-Catholic viewpoint, who would normally tend to disbelieve or at least question the motivation of virtually anything the media says, have conveniently suspended your healthy disbelief for this particular issue. The motives are obvious, both for you and for the plantation masters. However, you should stop and consider what you may be aiding by repeating this anti-Catholic gossip, and maybe take a minute to consider how sheepish you're going to feel when truth comes out. I'm not a Catholic, but remember when the Iraqi's supposedly ate an entire zoo in Kuwait, and threw Kuwaiti babies from their incubators to boot? Remember the US black church burnings? Remember DDT?

Skolnick [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.skolnicksreport.com 7-1-2 Every year, for almost half a century, they meet in a different country. Their first meeting was in Holland, in 1954. It was arranged by the Dutch Monarchy. It took place in the Bilderberg Hotel, which became the name of this secret society, one of several, forbidden to be discussed by the oil-soaked, spy-riddled monopoly press. Mutually pledged to sealed lips are those invited to the annual meeting. Members of the aristocracies attend of various nations, consisting of the elites of high finance, politics, espionage, academia, media, and other titles. I once interviewed, on tape, the wire desk editor of the Chicago Sun-Times. Why does your paper censor stories about the secret society, the Bilderberg? Most media honchos pretend never to have heard of this gang of plotters. But he responded candidly, a rarity, Well, if we went and then told about it, we couldn't go anymore. What should we do? Go and talk about it, or not be able to go? The meetings of the Bilderberg Group are about the only place that competing financial forces sit with one another. The Rockefellers, for example, are always there. So are their apparent enemy, the French Rothschilds. Sitting as a sort of neutral intermediary always is a top official of the Wallenberg banking monopoly of Sweden and northern Europe. In 1978, when John D. Rockefeller 3rd was assassinated on the road to their upstate New York fortress, we were the ONLY journalists (unpaid, free lance journalists, at that), who dared inquire. He was the father of John D. Rockfeller 4th, who to be cute, calls himself Jay, a supposed Democrat, U.S. Senator from West Virginia. The Rockefellers like to dominate states with sizeable geography and minerals, but a small population, such as also Arkansas. In a pinch, to dominate the state it would not cost that much to buy most every voter and most every media propaganda instrument in the state.Returning the favor of political murder was eighteen years later when the top member of the French Rothschild Family was murdered in Paris. The American monopoly press was ordered not to mention in detail, if at all, the death of Rothschild. Or, just run an innocent little item that the French International baron died of a heart attack. Presslord/swindler Rupert Murdoch ordered his pr! ! int and electronic media outlets to avoid, if at all, mentioning the death. The hotel in different countries where they meet each year, are announced as closed, for remodeling, or a wedding party. One year they picked a resort hotel on top of a Swiss mountain, difficult to reach except by air. The host nation agrees to supply a huge, almost secret security force prepared to brutalize intruders, follow any hardy reporters who may be encamped nearby, and by various brutality and trickery stop any public knowledge. Hotel employees are likewise pledged to secrecy, which if they violated it, would be severely dealt with. Such as never to be able to work again in that nation. When the Bilderberg met in 1991, in Baden-Baden, Germany, a purported health resort, invited was a then obscure Governor of Arkansas, Bill Clinton. They anointed him as the next President of the United States. The election would be a mere set up. The pressfakers present agreed not to mention, if at all possible, what they all knew. That Clinton was a walking, talking scandal. Not every American voter can bring themselves to know or believe reality. Namely, every candidate for high office is selected because they are blackmailable. The Establishment has to reserve the right to pull on the chain, any time they felt like it, to shut down such a candidate if somehow elected to high office. This, anytime the powers that be deemed it necessary, to shut him or her up, to remove them, or, scare them into silence with weird violence directed against the candidate/president's circle. Groomed since a teen-ager by the American CIA, Clinton in the1992 Presidential election shadow-boxed with his mentor, George Herbert Walker Bush, former head of the secret political police. Daddy Bush has been with the espionage cartel since 1959, when they helped set him up with six hundred worldwide affiliates for his petroleum drilling empire, Zapata Oil, later, Zapata Offshore, later Pennzoil, still later, Pennzoil/Texaco. Earlier, as Arkansas Governor, Clinton participated in the hundreds of millions of dollars involved in the dope traffic through the southern states, run by the American CIA

On Friday night, the ABC News program 20/20 broadcast The White Van http://abcnews.go.com/sections/2020/DailyNews/2020_whitevan_020621.html, which told the story of 5 young Israeli men apprehended in New Jersey hours after the World Trade Center was hit. They had been observed on 9/11 watching the burning of the World Trade Center from their vantage point in Liberty State Park, New Jersey, photographing each other as they rejoiced against the backdrop of the WTC aflame in the distance. Writing on Mar! ch 15, I envisioned the scene, described in news stories http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/forget.html and conjured in my mind's eye: As smoke billowed up into the pellucid sky, obscuring the sun, they laughed and joked and took pictures of each other against a backdrop of unspeakable horror. Outraged witnesses called the cops, who swooped down and picked them up. These Middle Eastern-looking men,' as witnesses described them, turned out to be Israelis: they were found with box cutters in their van, $4,000 in cash, and multiple passports. The van was registered as the property of 'Urban Moving Systems.' Police interrogated them for hours, and transferred them to a maximum security facility. A raid on the Urban Moving Systems warehouse (whose owner, Dominik Suter, has since fled to Israel) yielded computers, documents, and other evidence of what? That's why a shiver of deja-vu passed through me as I watched the 20/20 news report. Listening to the New Jersey housewife who spotted the cheering Israelis from her highrise apartment, watching the baffled look on her face as she described the young Israelis: They were like happy, you know They didn't look shocked to me. I thought it was very strange, It was like seeing a made-for-tv movie adaptation of a novel I'd read many times. Familiar but strangely truncated in certain key areas, abbreviated to conform to the supposedly short attention span of its audience, and, in true Hollywood style, not only bowdlerized but completely vulgarized. The result is a fairly interesting story studded with nuggets of new information, and saddled with a tacked-on indeed, downright counterintuitive moral at the end, as intoned by BaBa WaWa http://snl.jt.org/char/char.php?c=GiRan=Baba%20Wawa: I hope we've put all these woomers to west. Much of the ABC report confirms my basic contention, and the contention of many others, that there was indeed, as Fox News reporter Carl Cameron puts it, a vast Israeli spy operation in the US in full operational mode prior to 9/11, engaged in watching the pro-Arab support network that operates in many major American cities. What the 20/20 report amounts to is the Israelis' second line of defense, which basically boils down to this: well, yeah, they were Israeli spies, but they were just here defending Israel's interests and had no pre-knowledge of 9/11. In the process of spinning this new rationale, however, we have a series of damning admissions, as spun by ABC terrorism expert Vince Cannistraro, a former chief of operations for counterterrorism with the CIA. The arrested men's names were found in a search of a national intelligence database. We are also told by Cannistraro as if we don't already know that Urban Moving Systems was probably a Mossad front. Duh-uh! Gee, I guess that's why, shortly after the cops raided their New Jersey office http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/news/WABC_091401_airports.html, the Urban Movers got a move on, with owner Dominick Suter fleeing the country. The purpose of this spy nest, we are told in a reassuring tone, was Launching an intelligence operation against radical Islamists in the area, particularly in the New Jersey-New York area. 20/20 runs this sure they were spies, but explanation up the flagpole in the hope that, awed by Cannistraro's expertise and connections, everyone will salute: Under this scenario, the alleged spying operation

We are in the business of making money. --Steve Bechtel Sr. From the most natural and essential resource on earth - water - to nuclear power and weapons that can potentially cause the extinction of all life, Bechtel Group has manipulated both elements to build a business empire. As one of the largest construction and engineering companies in the world, Bechtel Group develops, manages, engineers, builds and operates telecomunications projects, water systems, petroleum and chemical plants, pipelines, nuclear power plants, mining and metal projects and civil infrastructure projects. Bechtel has offices in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Egypt, France, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Oman, Peru, Philippines, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, the U.S. and Venezuela. Last year Bechtel booked $23.3 billion worth of new business and worked off $15.1 billion in revenue, increases of 75% and 20% respectively (1). Bechtel has been involved in some of the world's largest and most ambitious construction projects. The Hoover Dam, the first oil pipeline in Saudi Arabia, the Alaskan oil pipeline, and our first nuclear power plants; all constructed by the private corporation under contracts that have been secured through brilliant manipulation of personal connections. Since the dawn of the nuclear age Bechtel has successfully solidified its position as the preeminent company for building all things nuclear. In its history Bechtel has helped to design and /or construct 45 nuclear power plants in 22 states (2). Recent Bechtel projects include decommissioning the Connecticut Yankee nuclear power plant, managing ExxonMobil's Singapore Chemical Complex, building an oil pipeline in Mexico, the Meizhou Wan power plant in China, the Collahuasi copper project in Chile, Space Launch Complex in Calif ornia, the Reliance oil refinery in India, the Ragian nickel and copper complex in Canada and the Boyn! e Island aluminum smelter in Australia. One of Bechtel's most important programs is Bechtel Nevada which manages operations at the Nevada Test site - a test bed for conducting defense-related nuclear experiments and national security experiments - for DoE's Nevada Operations Office which recently became National Nuclear Security Administration. The Nevada Test site is a massive outdoor laboratory and experiment center that is larger than the state of Rhode Island. Bechtel Nevada runs in partnership with Johnson Controls Nevada, Inc.; and Lockheed Martin Nevada Technologies, Inc., and partners with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories on many projects. Bechtel Nevada also works on projects for the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, NASA, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the U.S. Air Force, Army and Navy. The four major 'missions' of Bechtel Nevada are: l Stockpile Stewardship - provides experimental capabilities necessary to maintain confidence in the safety and performance of weapons in the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile. Stockpile Stewardship is also responsible for maintaining the ability to resume underground nuclear testing. l Environmental Management - responsible for Environmental Management, Pollution Prevention, Waste Minimization, and Science and Technology Development. l Defense and Civil Projects - includes Conventional Ordinance Testing which supports the U.S. military in the research and development of new munitions. The benefit of performing the Conventional Ordinance Testing at the Nevada Test Site is the specialized facilities allow live munitions to be tested by firing them at real targets. The HazMat Spill Center (HSC) - fully permitted to release highly hazardous chemical is a controlled environment for experimental purposes. The X-Tunnel Demilitarization Test Facility - an underground testing ground for demilitarization processes including disposition of conventional ammunition, rocket motors, and energetics. l National Security Response - includes several programs for crisis management, which includes advanced technologies, terrorism-related intelligence and remote date acquisition and analysis. Includes Protective counter Measure/Weapons of Mass Destruction training.

For all the talk in Washington about peace in the Middle East, it's clear that American policymakers are not much concerned about peace. Instead, the primary aim of U.S. policy in the Middle East is U.S. dominance over the region and its oil resources, through support for regimes that play our game and through our ever-increasing military presence. To the degree that U.S. policymakers believe backing Israeli conquest and aggression in Palestine advances U.S. long-term business interests, support for Israel continues. To the degree that peace helps solidify U.S. control, peace is acceptable. But U.S. policy is driven neither by unquestioned support for Israel nor concern for people's suffering in conflicts. Any hope for real peace requires getting past this rhetoric to the reality of U.S. policy. That reality is clear: The central principle of every U.S. administration since the end of World War II has been that the resources of the region do not truly belong to the people of the region, but instead exist for the benefit of Americans. It is not simply a question of who owns the oil, but who controls the flow of oil and oil profits. Even if the United States were energy self-sufficient, U.S. elites would seek to dominate the Middle East for the leverage it brings in world affairs, especially over the economies of our primary competitors (Europe and Japan), which are more heavily dependent on Middle Eastern oil. One component of this policy is support for the oil-rich countries, such as Saudi Arabia. Saudi rulers take their cut of the profits, channeling what remains into investments in the West and the purchase of U.S. weapons. In exchange, Saudi Arabia -- a monarchy that could not exist independently -- gets U.S. protection. In this system, Israel is a key pillar of U.S. strategy. Especially after its impressive military victory over the Arab states in 1967, Israel was a hammer that was used to smash Arab nationalism, which could have upset the system of weak, fragmented client regimes that the United States favors. Israel serves as a local cop on the beat, in the terminology of the Nixon Doctrine, and an integral part of the U.S. military-intelligence complex in that part of the world. These roles became especially important after the Iranian revolution in 1979, when the U.S. lost its other main base in the region. Israel also serves as a convenient foil for the United States. Even though the United States has exercised tremendous, repressive control over the region, until recently the brunt of Arab anger was always borne by Israel, with the United States representing itself to the Arabs as a friend. The U.S.-backed Arab regimes use this foil as well, diverting the anger of the so-called Arab street away from those states' corruption and despotism, to Israel. This analysis is often rebuffed by pointing to the frequent tensions between the United States and countries in the region, including allies. How is it that these nations are our clients when they seem so unruly? This simply reflects the complexity of maintaining control in such a volatile region. It is common practice for empires to set up client regimes in a region and then play them off each other, which not surprisingly produces tension, especially when the governments are not representative of their people. That's what U.S. diplomatic and military officials are paid to do -- manage the tensions, always keeping an eye on the ultimate goal. U.S. control -- not peace -- is that goal. That is why policymakers were happy to see Iraq and Iran at war throughout the 1980s and gave various kinds of covert support to both sides. Never mind the millions killed -- it kept the two regional powers at each other's throats, and hence weakened. In Palestine, if the United States were serious about promoting peace it would have long ago joined the international consensus for a political settlement built on a viable state for the Palestinians and security for Israel. Instead, it has long blocked that consensus, such as when it vetoed a 1976 U.N. Security Council resolution that offered something much like the Saudi plan being touted today as a solution. U.S. leaders don't mind peace, so long as it is within a system that doesn't threaten U.S. control. Yes, a Middle East in a constant state of tension -- either engaged in war or on the verge

Pentagon/Justice Take PoliceState Moves, As LaRouche Warned by Edward Spannaus and Michele Steinberg Attorney General John Ashcroft's suspension of the constitutional rights of an American citizen, in the radioactive dirty bomb case, is the latest step-wise escalation in the assault on civil rights and liberties which began in earnest immediately after Sept. 11. On June 10, exactly as Democratic Party Presidential pre-candidate Lyndon LaRouche had warned in May, the Pentagon did cross the Rubicon-or at least the Potomac-to hold a press conference with Justice Department officials, where they announced the arrest and transfer to a military prison of José Padilla, an American citizen. This unprecedented and legally dubious action occurred only weeks after LaRouche's EIR article of May 24, 2002, entitled, The Northern Command: Crossing The Rubicon. LaRouche said: The proposal for the probably unlawful, U.S. Army Northern Command ('USNORTHCOM'), when taken in its current strategic-policy setting, is clearly a proposal to 'cross the Rubicon,' a preparation to create a Caesarian military dictatorship over both the North American continent and the Caribbean In today's world, it is a preparation for the Pentagon to cross the Potomac one morning, to place the U.S. Attorney-General and his minions in power, reducing the President himself to a ceremonial, or even lesser figure in the configuration. The night before the June 10 press conference, Ashcroft's Justice Department got President George W. Bush to sign an order classifying Padilla as an enemy combatant, because of his alleged ties to al-Qaeda. This then allowed the former member of a Latino street gang, to be transferred to a military brig where he may never be tried, from Justice Department custody. One of the main reasons that Padilla was transferred, was that there is no evidence to prove the charges against him. A high-level intelligence source in Washington told EIR that, while the U.S. government had intelligence about Padilla, they had no real evidence. But as alarming as the legal maneuverings are, equally dangerous, and indefensible, were the actions by Ashcroft and his war-mongering allies, Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz and FBI Director Robert Mueller, resorting to a Nazi Party-style Big Lie tactic. To cause maximum panic, the announcement about the military transfer of Padilla, was made in Moscow by Ashcroft, mouthing off that the arrest of this top al-Qaeda terrorist justified U.S. concerns about the axis of evil, state-sponsored terrorism, and the threat from weapons of mass destruction. Ashcroft announced that Padilla had entered the United States to carry out an al-Qaeda plan to set off a radioactive bomb in Washington. But just hours after Ashcroft's Big Lie announcement, the officials themselves had to backtrack on this outrageous propaganda. Not only was it later stated by Wolfowitz and FBI officials that there was no actual plot to which the U.S. government can tie Padilla; it was further admitted that he is not a top figure in al-Qaeda, or any other known terrorist group. In fact, intelligence analysts admitted that al-Qaeda leaders would not make a recent American convert to Islam, such as Padilla, anything more than a courier or low-level operative. - Ripping Up the Constitution - The Justice Department's actions in the case of Padilla, who reportedly goes by the name Abdullah al-Muhajir after converting to Islam in the United States around 1993, goes well beyond what was contemplated in the President's Oct. 13 Military Order establishing military tribunals to try terrorist suspects captured in Afghanistan. The Military Order explicitly excluded United States citizens, and also provided a procedure for trials and access to a lawyer. Padilla's case stands in contrast to that of John Walker Lindh, the so-called American Taliban, who had been captured in Afghanistan, as part of the military forces of Taliban and/or al-Qaeda. Lindh is standing trial under Department of Justice charges in a Federal criminal court in Alexandria, Virginia. Padilla's sudden transfer was apparently triggered by a scheduled court hearing at which the Justice Department would have been compelled to state whether or not it was bringing criminal charges against him. Since, by all accounts, the government has virtually no evidence against Padilla-or at least, no evidence that it is willing and able to use in Federal court-the Justice Department went to President Bush on the evening of June 9, and got him to sign an order declaring

Now they Linger. by William Thomas It was around noon on March 12, 2000 when S.T. Brendt, the late night reporter for WMWV Radio, entered the kitchen of her country home in Parsonsfield, Maine. Her partner, Lou Aubuchont, was puzzling over what he had seen in the sky a half-hour before. The fat puffy plumes arching up over the horizon were unlike any aircraft condensation trails (contrails) he had ever seen. Instead of dissipating like normal contrails, these intersecting sky trails grew wider and began to merge. Looking towards the sun, Aubuchont saw what appeared like an oil and water mixture reflecting a prismatic band of colors. Ordinarily, contrails flare briefly in the stratosphere as hot moist engine exhaust flash-freezes into a stream of ice-crystals. These pencil-thin condensation trails are short-lived, evaporating into invisibility as exhaust gases cool quickly to the surrounding air temperature. As National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) meteorologist Thomas Schlatter explains, the formation of condensation trails requires temperatures lower than about minus 76 F and humidity of 70 percent or more. Because the Federal Aviation Authority requires military tankers and transporters to cross continental airspace at altitudes below 30,000 feet, ensuring safe separation from airliners flying between 35,000 and 39,000 feet, these military flights should leave no contrails at all. But in late 1997, Aubuchont began to notice thicker trails extending from horizon to horizon. Hanging in the sky, these expanding white ribbons would invariably be interwoven by more thick lines left by unmarked Air Force jets, white or silver in color. As Brendt glanced out the window, it looked like another gorgeous, cloudless day. But not quite. She spotted two jets laying billowing white banners to the north. Turning her gaze due west, Brendt saw two more lines extending over the horizon. She called Lou. Within 45 minutes, the couple counted 30 jets. This isn't right, Brendt thought. We just don't have that kind of air traffic here. While Aubuchont kept counting, Brendt started calling airports. Alerted by a call from Brendt, Richard Dean, WMWV's assistant news director and the WMWV news staff filed outside and counted 370 lines of persistent contrails in skies usually devoid of aerial activity. Brendt phoned a number of Air Traffic Controllers. They all stated that nothing unusual was going on. After several calls, Brendt reached one ATC manager who offered a different story. He told Brendt that his radars showed nine commercial jets during the same 45-minute span. From her location, he said, she should have been able to see only one plane. What about the other 29? Brendt inquired. The ATC official confided off-the-record that he had been ordered by higher civil authority to re-route inbound European airliners away from an airborne military exercise in the area. They wouldn't give me any of the particulars and I don't ask, he explained. The controller (who insisted on being identified only as Deep Sky,) subsequently repeated his statements on tape before witnesses at the WMWV studio. 'It's a Military Exercise' On December 8, 2000, Terry Stewart, the Manager for Planning and Environment at the Victoria International Airport, responded to a caller's complaint about the strange patterns of circles and grids being woven over the British Columbia capitol. Stewart left a message on an answering machine tape - a message that later was heard by more than 15 million radio listeners. Stewart explained: It's a military exercise, [a] US and Canadian Air Force exercise that's going on. They wouldn't give me any specifics on it. Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Comox on Vancouver Island is Canada's biggest radar installation. CFB Comox is easily capable of tracking the US formations coming up from the south. When asked for a response to Stewart's statement, the base information officer at CFB Comox replied tersely that: No military operation is taking place. Stewart later told the Vancouver Courier that his information had come directly from Comox. By the summer of 2001, pictures of contrails were being circulated by the Associated Press and the word chemtrails could be overheard in coffee shop conversations across the continent 'It's a Hoax' In an April 20, 2001, letter to a US senator, Col. Walter Washbaugh, chief of the Congressional Inquiry Division for the Secretary of the Air Force in Washington, DC, called chemtrails a hoax. Washbaugh blamed

Subject: What Did 'Energy Dialogue' At Bush-Putin Summit Mean? by Muriel Mirak-Weissbach The summit meeting between U.S. President George W. Bush and Russian President Vladimir Putin on May 23-24, was hailed as historic for the strategic arms reduction agreement signed. But that agreement has little substance, militarily or otherwise. Both sides maintain a devastating nuclear capability, and some warheads reduced on the American side will be merely stockpiled, not destroyed. The significance of the summit lies in the far-reaching energy dialogue, encapsulated in a joint statement issued following the talks on May 24. Even prior to the agreement, speculation had been rife in Russian and other international media, about supposed U.S. plans to build up Russia's oil and gas production, to replace those from the Persian Gulf, in case of a crisis. The statement begins, Successful development of the global economy depends on timely and reliable energy delivery. In this context, we welcome the fact that the Russian Federation has confirmed its role as a major world energy provider. In order to strengthen our overall relationship and enhance global energy security and international strategic stability, we have agreed to launch a bilateral energy dialogue. The aims are to: * Develop bilateral cooperation in the energy sphere on a mutually beneficial basis in accordance with our respective national energy policies. * Reduce volatility and enhance predictability of global energy markets and reliability of global energy supply. * Facilitate commercial cooperation in the energy sector, enhancing interaction between our companies in exploration, production, refining, transportation and marketing of energy, as well as in implementation of joint projects including those in third countries. * Encourage investment aimed at the further development and modernization of the fuel and energy sector of Russia, including expansion of oil and gas production in Eastern Siberia, the Far East, and offshore areas. * Promote access to world markets for Russian energy, including through the commercial development and modernization of Russia's port and transportation infrastructures, the electric power and gas sectors, and oil refining capabilities. * Foster science, technological, and business cooperation in the use of unconventional energy sources, and energy-efficient and environmentally clean technologies. * Cooperate in elaboration and development of new ecologically safer nuclear power technologies. The statement also cites the Caspian Sea and implicitly Central Asia: It says of the Caspian region, We also welcome our commercial cooperation with the United States and in other countries where our companies, and their international partners' experience, technology, and capital can be joined to provide the commercially reliable energy supplies which are essential to fostering prosperity and global stability. Who's Fooling Whom? So much for the text. What the agreement actually means, is still an open question. All any intelligent viewer could say, is: Who in Hell-or, from Hell -is fooling whom? Is Russia playing a deception game, waiting for America's economic-financial and military-strategic problems to escalate further? Or, is the liberal faction in Russia willing to make Russia the West's energy and raw materials supplier, with some nuclear weapons added as a sweetener for having lost great power status? Newsweek, in its May 27 issue, addressed this as a matter of how to make the Great Game look nice. Saying the real news of the summit was that Moscow and Washington aim to carve out a whole new relationship, particularly in Central Asia, the magazine predicted the summit would yield a deal, whereby Russia would make up for shortfalls in oil supplies from the Gulf-Middle East region, in exchange for Western investments, and for integrating Central Asia into world markets. Articles on this theme also appeared in Business Week, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Forbes magazine, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, and the German daily Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, among others. During the summit, the Russian online publication Strana.ru published a piece by its Russian Observer, which outlined a nightmare scenario-at least for the oil producers of the Persian Gulf. It said the intent was to make Russia an ally of the West in a vital Western economic security interest, and the West an ally of Russia in the same terms. Author Ira Strauss, known for his anti-Arab views, called the energy dialogue the first step

Michael Jones, Ph.D. SNIPPITS (from long article): . What Miss Hunt did not tell the reporter is that she was the secretary of a man by the name of Eddie Bernays, nor did she tell him that Mr. Bernays was now a self-styled expert in the new discipline of Public Relations who had just received a handsome retainer from the American Tobacco Company to promote cigarette consumption among women. What billed itself as a feminist promotion of the emancipation of women was in reality a public relations ploy to open a new market for tobacco by getting women addicted to cigarettes. . Like the behaviorists, Eddie might have felt that human beings were infinitely malleable when subjected to orchestrated public opinion, but his insight needs its proper historical context to be understood correctly. What he was really talking about was the erosion of custom by the manipulation of passion. Throughout the century, tradition and morals would prove vulnerable to publicity campaigns which gave 'scientific' justification for succumbing to passion. Feminism was no exception to this rule. It entailed the systematic re-engineering of the morals of women as a way of moving them out of the home and into the workforce, thereby lowering wages and weakening the power of organized labor and the working class family. . Eddie Bernays...was a fervent feminist, but his was a feminism with an ulterior motive. Eddie, like the feminists of the '70s, wanted to break the woman's connection with tradition and the home because, once that connection was broken, women were more open to suggestions emanating from the mass media and those who controlled it -- the people, in other words, who paid Eddie's handsome retainers. Eddie promoted smoking among women because he was paid to do so by American Tobacco. But promoting smoking was also a way of breaking tradition's hold over women's minds, and this was important because once that hold was broken these women were more amenable to his suggestions. . The Torches of Freedom campaign was a classic instance of using sexual liberation as a form of control. It proposed addiction as a form of freedom. In this, it was an early version of the Virginia Slims, 'You've Come a Long Way, Baby' campaign, which made repeated reference to the suffragette movement as a way of associating cigarettes with freedom. . Since Watson had been peddling his theories to big business since 1916, Resor saw an opportunity to integrate behaviorism and advertising as a way of controlling and homogenizing an increasingly unruly population in the interests of the business community. Liberalism had to come up with a solution to the social chaos its policies created and Watson's behaviorism, combined with the propaganda techniques evolved during the War, seemed like the answer. But there was another reason Resor found the prospect of hiring Watson appealing. The industry had its own ethos, which was overwhelmingly liberal. Advertising executives were a remarkably homogeneous lot, oftentimes the sons of Protestant ministers, who had the fervor of their fathers without their faith. These were men who believed that science was a better guide in life than morals, and they were enamored of the possibilities it offered for creating a brave new world in the image of their passions. Man was what the conditioners made him. There was no soul, no essence, no human nature. Man was nothing but responses to stimuli, which were increasingly under the scientist's control, first of all because Watson had discovered the conditioned reflex as the 'building block' of personality, but secondly because the instruments for manipulation were now available in the new media, particularly cinema. . The ironies of the world proposed by Resor, Bernays, and Watson become evident with some hindsight. Watson's need to replace 'traditional guides for human conduct' was inevitably followed by a regimen of social control. The consumer, who is seen as driven by irrational passion, most notably sex, can only be manipulated by appealing to authorities which are 'scientific' as opposed to the discredited authorities of tradition, which are portrayed as 'irrational.' Science is the solvent which, in the name of 'reason,' dissolves the traditional bulwarks against the passions and allows them

Their echo-chambered furor caused George W. Bush to waver temporarily, but an outcry of moral dismay from Republicans stiffened his administration's spine. Too partisan a reading? Consider: As the Palestinian murder of Jewish civilians exploded, Democrats blamed Bush for having been disengaged. This charge of noninvolvement had one plain meaning: Bush should have continued the failed policy of Bill Clinton, pressuring Israel's newly elected leader to offer again the dangerous concessions of Camp David and Taba. The Democrats' line was laid down by Clinton himself. He told Reuters on April 10 that U.S. involvement was indispensable, that he was thrilled by the dispatch of Colin Powell to negotiate. He took the Palestinian side that there cannot be a cease-fire without a withdrawal and equated Arafat and Ariel Sharon as bull-headed. Democrat Tom Daschle, Senate majority leader, then blocked a bipartisan resolution by Senators Mitch McConnell and Dianne Feinstein to designate the P.L.O. as a terrorist group. Counterproductive, said Daschle, preferring to send his Democratic whip, Harry Reid, to repeat the mantra that Bush should have been involved in this much earlier. Democrat Joe Biden then refused to allow Bibi Netanyahu to appear before Senate Foreign Relations. The former prime minister's purpose was to call attention to Sharon's acceptance of - and Arafat's rejection of - the U.S. proposal for a cease-fire that would have saved hundreds of civilian lives. Totally inappropriate, decreed Biden, forcing his fellow Democrat Joe Lieberman and Republican Jon Kyl (denounced as a sicko by the chief U.S. Arab lobbyist) to provide a less prestigious forum to get Israel's message across. Lieberman, as he famously did in another moral matter a few years ago, went against the Democratic leadership. He said Bush's call to stop the counterattack muddled our moral clarity in the war against terror. This emboldened other presidential candidates, Senator John Kerry and Representative Richard Gephardt, to speak out against the liberals' crusade to force Israel to abort its clean-out of terrorist nests. New York's senior senator, Charles Schumer, had been blasting the hypocrisy of blaming Sharon for responding as Bush did to terrorist outrage, while the junior senator's office ritually co-signed a note and put out a release. But not Al Gore, titular leader of the Democratic Party. Gore re-entered the political fray in Florida with a harangue about lockboxes and global warming - and not a word about Topic A. Gee, Al used to be an outspoken supporter of Israel. In refusing to take a stand, Gore avoided the ridicule of liberal pundits. From Mary McGrory in The Washington Post to Mark Shields on CNN, a falafel curtain has descended across our continent, transmogrifying the Arab aggressor into the victim. ABC-Disney leads that parade, as the BBC vies with Al Jazeera to inflame the European street.

FBI's 'Missed Terror Clues' Investigated Via NY Transfer News * All the News That Doesn't Fit Congress Goes After Fabulous But Incompetent BBC Online - May 25, 2002 http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/world/americas/newsid_2007000/2007126.stm FBI's 'missed terror clues' investigated A United States congressional inquiry into intelligence failures in the run-up to 11 September is to give high priority to allegations that the FBI hindered an investigation of a terrorism suspect. Senator Bob Graham, chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said the allegations showed there was a lack of aggressive follow-through over the Moussaoui case. These concerns deserved to have gotten greater attention, the Florida Democrat said. Senator Graham will co-chair a congressional inquiry examining the US intelligence system, including any failures leading up to the 11 September attacks. The inquiry, set up by a joint committee of the Senate and the House of Representatives, will begin its hearings on 4 June, he announced on Friday. Classified letter In a highly unusual step for an FBI agent, Ms Rowley sent a 13-page classified letter to FBI headquarters. It said the bureau should have approved a request from her office for a search warrant for Mr Moussaoui, who was detained in August after arousing suspicions at a local flight school. Ms Rowley's letter marks the first known time an FBI agent has formally complained about the agency's failure to pursue warnings before the 11 September attacks. In the letter, she reportedly complained about a lack of co-ordination, mix-ups and even obstacles put in the way of her office's investigations from FBI headquarters. The Minnesota office asked FBI headquarters to issue a warrant to search Mr Moussaoui's computer hard drive in August, but were told there was insufficient probable cause to grant the request at the time. But according to the Washington Post, Minneapolis investigators believed there was significant evidence of Mr Moussaoui's links to terrorists. When the request for a warrant was denied, the office tried to bypass FBI headquarters and notify the CIA's counter-terrorist operation directly. Minnesota agents were reprimanded, according to Ms Rowley's letter. After receiving the letter on Tuesday, FBI director Robert Mueller acknowledged that his agency needed a different approach to fighting terror threats. Closed-door hearing The directors of the CIA and the FBI will both be asked to attend the closed-door session of the congressional inquiry. There are plans for public hearings to take place later in the summer. Senator Graham said the process was designed to inform Congress and the American public about what happened before, on and after 11 September, specifically as it related to the performance of the intelligence agencies. The senator said the 23 member panel had already interviewed 175 people and gathered more than 30,000 documents. The White House is hoping that this will be the only inquiry into intelligence issues surrounding 11 September. But there are a significant number of influential voices calling for a much wider inquiry, conducted by a group of respected people from outside the intelligence world. BBC Washington correspondent Justin Webb says it is already plain that the US intelligence agencies did not talk to each other as often as they should have done before 11 September, and the committee will almost certainly concentrate on the need for much better co-ordination in the future. = NY Transfer News Collective * A Service of Blythe Systems Since 1985 - Information for the Rest of Us 339 Lafayette St., New York, NY 10012 http://www.blythe.org e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] = nytcov-05.26.02-04:15:34-31500 -- http://www.blythe.org Forwarded for info and discussion from the New Paradigms Discussion List, not necessarily endorsed by: *** Lloyd Miller, Research Director for A-albionic Research a ruling class/conspiracy research resource for the entire political-ideological spectrum. **FREE RARE BOOK SEARCH: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ** Explore Our Archive: http://a-albionic.com/a-albionic.html A HREF=http://www.ctrl.org/;www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] FBI chiefs blocked investigation of '20th hijacker'
-Caveat Lector- .. From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed] Note: We store 100's of related New Paradigms Posts at: http://www.msen.com/~lloyd/oldprojects/recentmail.html All, this is a report published yesterday on the UK's newspaper The Guardian (http://www.guardian.co.uk/Archive/Article/0,4273,4421276,00.html). Now all conspiracy people have material to say I told you!. Subject: FBI chiefs blocked investigation of '20th hijacker' Oliver Burkeman in New York Guardian Saturday May 25, 2002 High-ranking FBI officials repeatedly obstructed efforts to investigate Zacarias Moussaoui, the alleged 20th hijacker, in the days before September 11, a senior agent has claimed. Coleen Rowley, of the FBI's Minneapolis office, said the agents who arrested Mr Moussaoui there in August last year became so frustrated by their superiors' repeated refusal to grant warrants to search his computer and personal belongings that they alerted the CIA directly - a breach of protocol for which they were reprimanded. In a 13-page letter to the Senate intelligence committee and the FBI director, Robert Mueller, which was immediately classified, Ms Rowley rejected Mr Mueller's recent claim that the agency had no information on Mr Moussaoui that could have helped to predict or prevent the terrorist attacks. The FBI said it would open an internal investigation, and the Senate panel has begun its own inquiry. Mr Moussaoui is currently facing terrorism charges in Virginia. While I cannot comment on the specifics of the letter, I am convinced that a different approach is required, Mr Mueller said in a statement. New strategies, new technologies, new analytical capacities and a different culture make us an agency that is changing post-September 11. In part of the letter which was made public, Ms Rowley wrote: When, in a desperate eleventh-hour measure to bypass the FBI HQ roadblock, the Minneapolis division undertook directly to notify the CIA's counter-terrorist centre, FBI HQ personnel chastised the Minneapolis agents for making the direct notification without approval. Even as Washington was digesting Ms Rowley's allegations, government documents emerged showing that the FBI agents investigating Mr Moussaoui were told hours after his arrest that he believed it was acceptable to kill civilians who harm Muslims, and that those who died executing such attacks were martyrs. The warning was backed up days later in a cable from a French intelligence agency saying that he held Islamic extremist beliefs. The classified documents, summarised in a leak to the New York Times, were based on interviews with Hussein al-Attas, a student who gave Mr Moussaoui a lift from Oklahoma to a Minnesota flying school, where his interest in Boeing-747s aroused the suspicion of instructors. This month it emerged that one agent speculated in the margins of his notes that he might be planning to hijack an aircraft and fly it into the World Trade Centre. US officials also hinted yesterday that they were looking into the possibility that Richard Reid, the alleged shoe-bomber, acted as part of a wider plot by an Islamic militant group, and that the group in question may have been Hamas or Hizbullah. They are damn sure he was part of a terrorist organisation, a federal law enforcement official told the Washington Post. One could reasonably assume that al-Qaida is not the only group that is being looked at. The official said connections between al-Qaida and Palestinian terrorist groups were a key focus of the investigation, not least because of Mr Reid's history of travels in Gaza. There is certainly evidence to indicate there are links and contacts between them. They are like-minded organisations that hate the US and are tapping into a broader pool of resources and people. But I wouldn't say the Palestinian rejectionist organisations are linking up with al-Qaida and going to war against us. We're not there yet. Newly released court documents show that prosecutors believe a human hair and palm-print found on the plastic explosive device which Mr Reid tried to detonate on an American Airlines flight from Paris to Miami in December last year did not belong to him.

Bush knew. And his administration knew. The transparently dishonest denials issued by the White House do not stand up to the slightest scrutiny. They are lying. A simple examination of existing information, gathered from reliable, open sources proves it. [...] Backed into a Corner at Every Turn On May 15, Press Secretary and official White House liar Ari Fleischer nervously stuttered, The president did not receive information about the use of airplanes as missiles by suicide bombers. This was a new type of attack that was not foreseen. This was followed by Condoleeza Rice, who repeated the spin: I don't think that anyone could have predicted that these people would take an airplane and slam it into the World Trade Center. Bush himself issued a statement that he had no indication beforehand that terrorists would hijack jets and deliberately crash them. The White House would have us believe that not a single individual in the entire US government, nor the entire Central Intelligence Agency, had knowledge about a method of terrorism that has been routine for more than 20 years. And that not a single person in the entire national security apparatus of the US had a shred of information on training camps in Iran (a hotspot of intense US intelligence focus for decades) devoted to this method of terrorism. Yossef Bodansky is a director of the Task Force on Terrorism and Unconventional Warfare in the US House of Representatives, and the author of the book Bin Laden: The Man Who Targeted America. Bodansky is a Washington insider whose views are sought after, respected and broadly disseminated throughout the US government. In a well-publicized paper from 1993, he stated, The training of suicide pilots started in the Busher air base in Iran in the early 1980s with some 90 Pilatus PC-7 aircraft purchased from Switzerland. According to a former trainee in Wakilibad (a base for the training of kamikaze pilots), one of the exercises included having an Islamic Jihad detachment seize (or hijack) a transport aircraft. Then trained air crews from among the terrorists would crash the airliner with its passengers into a selected objective, he wrote. The leading terrorists are known as 'Afghans,' having been trained with the mujahadeen in Pakistan. Some fought in Afghanistan. Muslim volunteers from several Arab and Asian countries were encouraged to come to Pakistan and join the Afghan Jihad. (Source: Target America: Terrorism in the US Today, 1993. Islamic Terrorism in the United States, National Security Caucus, 1996.) The Bush administration would have us believe that a subject that was written about in books and discussed openly throughout Washington is unimaginable. They would also have us believe that they, and their intelligence operatives, have been unaware of some of the most spectacular and horrific terrorist operations in recent history-many of them directed at the United States. Yet: On December 29, 1994, four terrorists alleged to have ties to Osama bin Laden hijacked Air France Flight 8969, a flight from Algiers to Paris. They loaded the plane with explosives and filled it with extra fuel, with the intent of ramming it into the Eiffel Tower. Commandos stormed the plane and killed the hijackers. (Source: NBC News. September 30, 2001. Chris Hansen, The Lesson of Air France Flight 8969) A full seven years before September 11, an al-Qaeda suicide hijacking is partially executed and barely stopped by French intelligence. The Bush administration would have us believe that no one in the CIA had ever heard of such a thing. Another suicide hijacking plot was discovered six years before September 11. Ramsey Youssef, the terrorist who masterminded the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center had detailed plans to hijack and crash commercial airliners into buildings in the US, and blow up 12 US airliners during international flights over a two-day period. This plot, known as Operation Bojinka, was discovered by Philippine intelligence agents in 1995, in the hideout of Yousef and Abdul Hakim Murad, a US trained pilot linked to bin Laden.

Via NY Transfer News * All the News That Doesn't Fit [[See Lloyd Miller's contrary opinion below the following NY Transfer News interpretation]] [This strange press release, a series of non-sequiters strung together, speaks volumes about the chaos of the White House Resident's foreign policy. Apparently, a Key West Chamber of Commerce seminar on doing business with Cuba had scheduled Vicki Huddleston, of all people, as the keynote speaker. She's backed out (the wonder is she ever planned to be there at all) -- claiming scheduling problems based on her appearance last week in Miami with Bush (which should have made it easier for her to be in Key West on Tuesday). The Bush appearance in Miami is now being blamed on Jimmy Carter. With the military, anonymous White House staff, and deep throats in the spook agencies all back-stabbing the half-wit and his top advisers, can impeachment, resignation or assassination be too long in coming?] Contrary to the interpretation above, I am beginning to suspect the traditional high level conflict between the Vatican/Rockefeller forces represented in Clinton/Carter and the Judeo/Masonic/Anglophile forces represented by Bush. Carter, by going to Cuba, has done something quite rare for an ex-President in taking on the sitting Pres. so directly! No co-incidence that nearly simultaneously the top Democrats start threatening to nail Bush on 911! and Joint Chiefs stab Bush in back regarding invading Iraq! The news about Osama's plans to set-up an Islamic Republic in Central Asia may have been supported by the Rockefeller/Vatican forces as their preferred approach to controlling the vast oil reserves there. This would fit with the long-time alliance between Rockefeller and Saudi Arabia. The current Pope has long supported alliance with the Muslim world on the ancient motto: Better a Muslim than Gnostic. The Pope hates Modernism/Masonic philosophy and admires the faith of the Muslims! Apparently, the Judeo/Masonic/Anglophile forces represented by Bush put everything on the line to nix the Vatican/Rockefeller plans for Central Asia by either allowing or planning 911 to justify destroying the Taliban. Why would Osama attack America 911 if he had Vatican/Rockefeller support? Needed the credibility in the Islamic world to set-up his Central Asia Republic? A Rockefeller/Vatican President Gore, a la Clinton, would have done little or nothing in response to 911 except persecute the American people! Bush took-out the Taliban and set-up a new alliance with Russia to control the oil of Central Asia! Lloyd Miller Keynoter.com - May 25, 2002 Cuba seminar may be rescheduled By Alyson Matley [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Organizers of a planned Key West seminar on Cuba that has been canceled hope to reschedule the event. The session, which was planned for Tuesday, was to be hosted by the Key West Chamber of Commerce and Florida Atlantic University. The scheduled keynote speaker was Vicki Huddleston, who represents the U.S. State Department in Havana. But this week, she canceled her engagement at the Casa Marina. Because [Huddleston] was in Miami with the president this week, she had to cancel, said Alex Sokolloff, a coordinator of the event from FAU. He said Huddleston had to fly back to Havana after accompanying Bush in Miami. The president was in South Florida last week to recognize the centennial of Cuban independence from Spain and reiterate the administration's support of the 43-year-old U.S. embargo on Cuba. Her schedule was turned upside down because of what was going on between Bush and Carter, Sokolloff said. He was referring to a visit to the island nation by former President Carter, who called for an end to the trade embargo. That apparently sparked Bush's trip to Miami to address Cuban exiles, and state that no such end was coming in the near future. Chamber officials organized the workshop to explore potential business opportunities in Cuba. Huddleston has represented the U.S. in Cuba since 1999. Sokolloff said he hopes to reschedule the event. However, Huddleston may not be the keynote speaker, as her term in Havana expires in September. He said chamber staff has contacted everyone that had reserved a seat at the seminar. However, anyone with questions should contact the chamber at 294-2587.

Via NY Transfer News * All the News That Doesn't Fit Middle East Times http://www.metimes.com/2K2/issue2002-21/methaus.htm Did Bush have fair warning of attacks? by Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed This is the first part of Chapter 4 excerpted from the explosive 400-page exposé, The War on Freedom: How and Why America was Attacked, September 11, 2001, by the leading British political scientist and human rights activist Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed, the director of the Institute for Policy Research Development in Brighton. With recent revelations that U.S. authorities were indeed aware of at least some of the dangers Al Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden presented to the United States, and that the White House and Congress had been briefed, at least in general, on these dangers, this book argues that in fact there was a great deal of highly relevant information known that simply was not fully analyzed and acted on in time to prevent the attack. Chapter 4. Warning Signs of 9/11 and Intelligence Failures THE U.S. INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY What is happening in the United States took me by surprise. I anticipated that in the aftermath of Sept. 11, there would be an enormous hue and cry to find out what went wrong. There has been no hue and cry in the United States. No recriminations, nothing even similar to what happened after Pearl Harbor in 1941 The United States has drawn a veil of silence over the issue of intelligence failure. --Wesley Wark, Canadian Intelligence Expert and Consultant to the Privy Council Office of Canada on Intelligence Policy, [qoted in the] Globe Mail, December 18, 2001) We've been focusing on this perpetrator Osama Bin Laden for 3 years, and yet we didn't see this one coming, said Vincent Cannistraro, former chief of CIA counter-terrorism operations. A U.S. Air Force General described the attack as something we had never seen before, something we had never even thought of. FBI Director Robert Mueller further declared that, there were no warning signs that I'm aware of. Senior FBI officials insisted that in terms of intelligence warnings received prior to September 11: The notion of flying a plane into a building or using it as a bomb never came up. [1] According to this official version of events, no one in the Bush administration had the slightest idea of the identities of those who orchestrated the September 11 attacks, the nature of their plans, or their targets. Contrary to these prolific claims, there is compelling evidence that the U.S. intelligence community had extensive forewarning of the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington. Further evidence suggests that the attacks may, in fact, have been in the interest of certain elements of the Bush administration (see Chapter VII). USING PLANES AS BOMBS The Pentagon commissioned an expert panel in 1993 to investigate the possibility of an airplane being used to bomb national landmarks. Retired Air Force Col. Doug Menarchik, who organized the $150,000 study for the Defense Department's Office of Special Operations and Low-Intensity Conflict, recalled: It was considered radical thinking, a little too scary for the times. After I left, it met a quiet death. Other participants have noted that the decision not to publish detailed scenarios issued to some extent from fear that this may give terrorists ideas. Nevertheless, a draft document detailing the results of the investigation was circulated through the Pentagon, the Justice Department and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Senior agency officials decided against a public release. [2] The veracity of the Pentagon's radical thinking was confirmed in 1994 when there occurred three attempted attacks on buildings using airplanes. The first, in April of that year, involved a Federal Express flight engineer facing dismissal. Having boarded a DC-10 as a passenger, he invaded the cockpit, planning to crash the plane into a company building in Memphis. Fortunately, he was overpowered by the crew. The second attempt occurred in September. A lone pilot crashed a small plane into a tree on the White House grounds, just short of the president's bedroom. The third incident occurred in December. An Air France flight in Algiers was hijacked by members of the Armed Islamic Group (GIA) - who are linked to Al Qaeda - aiming to crash it into the Eiffel Tower. French Special Forces stormed the plane on the ground. [3] AL QAEDA'S PROJECT BOJINKA Western intelligence had been aware of plans for such terrorist attacks on U.S. soil as early as 1995. Both the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had detailed information about the possible use

A-albionic Research interpretation of the article below: Anti-Israel democrats are really the Vatican democrats. Lloyd Miller From:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Bill Koenig) To:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Democrats vs. Israel By WILLIAM SAFIRE - New York Times WASHINGTON - April 22, 2002 http://www.nytimes.com/2002/04/22/opinion/22SAFI.html?ex=1020139200en=352b2eb23383f809ei=5040partner=MOREOVER Most of the leaders of the Democratic Party and its liberal media voices distanced themselves from Israel in the midst of its defense against Arafat's war. Their echo-chambered furor caused George W. Bush to waver temporarily, but an outcry of moral dismay from Republicans stiffened his administration's spine. Too partisan a reading? Consider: As the Palestinian murder of Jewish civilians exploded, Democrats blamed Bush for having been disengaged. This charge of noninvolvement had one plain meaning: Bush should have continued the failed policy of Bill Clinton, pressuring Israel's newly elected leader to offer again the dangerous concessions of Camp David and Taba. The Democrats' line was laid down by Clinton himself. He told Reuters on April 10 that U.S. involvement was indispensable, that he was thrilled by the dispatch of Colin Powell to negotiate. He took the Palestinian side that there cannot be a cease-fire without a withdrawal and equated Arafat and Ariel Sharon as bull-headed. Democrat Tom Daschle, Senate majority leader, then blocked a bipartisan resolution by Senators Mitch McConnell and Dianne Feinstein to designate the P.L.O. as a terrorist group. Counterproductive, said Daschle, preferring to send his Democratic whip, Harry Reid, to repeat the mantra that Bush should have been involved in this much earlier. Democrat Joe Biden then refused to allow Bibi Netanyahu to appear before Senate Foreign Relations. The former prime minister's purpose was to call attention to Sharon's acceptance of - and Arafat's rejection of - the U.S. proposal for a cease-fire that would have saved hundreds of civilian lives. Totally inappropriate, decreed Biden, forcing his fellow Democrat Joe Lieberman and Republican Jon Kyl (denounced as a sicko by the chief U.S. Arab lobbyist) to provide a less prestigious forum to get Israel's message across. Lieberman, as he famously did in another moral matter a few years ago, went against the Democratic leadership. He said Bush's call to stop the counterattack muddled our moral clarity in the war against terror. This emboldened other presidential candidates, Senator John Kerry and Representative Richard Gephardt, to speak out against the liberals' crusade to force Israel to abort its clean-out of terrorist nests. New York's senior senator, Charles Schumer, had been blasting the hypocrisy of blaming Sharon for responding as Bush did to terrorist outrage, while the junior senator's office ritually co-signed a note and put out a release. But not Al Gore, titular leader of the Democratic Party. Gore re-entered the political fray in Florida with a harangue about lockboxes and global warming - and not a word about Topic A. Gee, Al used to be an outspoken supporter of Israel. In refusing to take a stand, Gore avoided the ridicule of liberal pundits. From Mary McGrory in The Washington Post to Mark Shields on CNN, a falafel curtain has descended across our continent, transmogrifying the Arab aggressor into the victim. ABC-Disney leads that parade, as the BBC vies with Al Jazeera to inflame the European street. Pro-Palestinian journalists gain cover from Israel's dovish Haaretz, but such dissent is a democracy's strength; if a Ramallah paper criticized Arafat, the editor's body would be dragged through the streets as a collaborator. Contrariwise, what voices were first to blow the whistle on Bush's misbegotten need to placate the shaky regimes in Egypt and Jordan? Conservative commentators, of course. The editorials of The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Times; the columns of Charles Krauthammer, George Will, John Leo, Bill Kristol, Michael Kelly and other right thinkers in what the left still calls the vast conspiracy - all were well ahead of late-arriving Lieberman and his tiny band of principled Democrats. We are accompanied in support of embattled Israel, as Tish Durkin notes in the current National Journal, by the much-maligned Christian right, to which Menachem Begin wisely reached out.

Exclusive To American Free Press By Michael Collins Piper After seven months of non-stop declarations by U.S. government spokesmen that there exists solid proof tying 19 Muslim men to plotting the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, FBI Director Robert Mueller has now admitted quite the opposite. That 19 Muslim men who have apparently disappeared have been named as the hijackers is not in doubt. What is in doubt is whether those 19 men were actually plotting anything, either individually or together. The amazing possibility remains that others carried out the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, using the identities of the 19 Muslims who have been assigned guilt in the tragedy. In an April 19 speech delivered to the Common wealth Club in San Francisco, Mueller said that the purported hijackers, in his words, left no paper trial. The FBI director stated flatly: In our investigation, we have not uncovered a single piece of paper-either here in the United States or in the treasure trove of information that has turned up in Afghanistan and elsewhere-that mentioned any aspect of the Sept. 11 plot. In describing Muellers evidence fiasco, Los Angeles Times reporters Erich Lichtblau and Josh Meyer, whose article was reprinted in The Washington Post on April 30, note that: Law enforcement officials say that while they have been able to reconstruct the movements of the hijackers before the attacks-all legal except for a few speeding tickets-they have found no evidence of their actual plotting. The Times reporters acknowledge that Muellers comments offer the FBIs most comprehensive and detailed assessment to date of its investigation, remarkable as much for what investigators have not found as for what they have. The FBI director explained away the absence of evidence by making the disingenuous assertion that the hijackers used meticulous planning, extraordinary secrecy and extensive knowledge of how America works to conceal their scheme. Mueller made this claim despite the fact that in the immediate wake of the Sept. 11 attacks, a variety of U.S. officials and media sources speciously announced, almost instantaneously, that there was firm evidence not only that these 19 Muslim men were agents of Osama bin Ladens al Qaeda network but that they were indeed the individuals who hijacked the doomed flights on Sept. 11. Mueller seems to forget that early government and media reports loudly hyped discoveries-letters and other documents-in the luggage and personal belongings of the presumed hijackers which proved that they were on a mission for Allah, etc etc. Now Muellers comments seem to contradict everything thats been said.

Skolnick [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.skolnicksreport.com For Parts 1-10 http://www.rense.com/Datapages/skolnickdatapage.html 5-13-2 BLACK TUESDAY - The Big Lie and Dark Truth It has taken the better part of sixty years for the truth about Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941. It is now documented, beyond dispute. The White House had prior knowledge of the impending Japanese attack on a large group of our old battleships, not just coincidentally, conveniently moored, by White House orders, in the center of a harbor in Hawaii. Several thousand common Americans were bombed to their death. For geopolitical reasons, the highest level of the American aristocracy, through its government puppets, felt it was a necessary small price to pay to have the U.S. forced at last into World War Two, against the Axis Powers. For among other reasons, it was to save Great Britain from being overwhelmed by the Nazis. The U.S. engaging in War with Japan, invoked the terms of the Axis pact, bringing Germany to declare War shortly thereafter on the U.S. On their own previously, the Germans had been greatly reluctant to start up with the huge industrial power, the United States. [Read Day of Deceit: The Truth About Pearl Harbor by Robert B. Stinnett, paperback, 2001. Pearl Harbor: Mother of All Conspiracies, by Mark Emerson Willey, paperback, 2000.] Ex-American soldiers that survived that war, if still living, have been too old, too tired, to join any protest that many of their age died because of treason. The American aristocracy had financed Hitler as a bulwark against the Soviets, and had profited all during World War II, in treasonous joint business with Nazi big business. Such as the Rockefellers and their Standard Oil. Such as General Electric. Such as Ford Motor Company. See, Wall St. and the Rise of Hitler by Antony Sutton. Trading With the Enemy by Charles Higham. Henry Ford and the Nazis, the Nation Magazine, Ford and the Fuhrer, January 24, 2000. So, will it now take sixty years from the date of posting of this article, until all pertinent documents are released and undisputed, as to the American aristocracy, or at least a split portion of the same, and their prior knowledge with the Bush White House as to Black Tuesday? And how many now reading this will expect to still be around on September 11, 2061? Like Pearl Harbor, did a faction of the ultra rich consider it a small price to pay, for geopolitical purposes, that several thousand died in the smash down of the twin towers in lower Manhattan and crashing a portion of the Pentagon? And what were those geopolitical purposes? America was accumulating too much population for the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights to be a valid form of organic law, in the view of a faction in the aristocracy, needlessly guaranteeing to everyone in this nation Equal Protection of the Laws and orderly processes of Law. From a heartless view of history, the United States is already an old Republic. From the beginning, the ultra rich wanted only a basic parliamentary type of frame work with no shield against a powerful American monarch and a omnipotent central Government. The Bill of Rights was FORCED to be added to the Constitution. Without it, the basic Constitution may never have been widely accepted by common Americans. Notice, that each provision of the Bill of Rights has a form of the word NO, a strong negative as a shield against a possible central tyranny. The upper class in the colonies were simply on the outs with the King of England over mercantile issues. Excessive taxes, among them. They wanted to be separate and apart from the Crown in London. Yet, in the colonies, then as now, controlling the common people were the Judges and the Lawyers, who basically supported the Crown, the regime, the Establishment, then as now. The common colonists were deeply opposed to the colonial lawyers and judges whose chimneys were painted black as a warning. The lawyers and judges fled to Canada. With the coming of the Constitution, however, was an Establishment of elites, again calling themselves lawyers and judges, but actually pirates, determined to steal large blocs of land. One of those great thieves sat as the Chief Justice, John Marshall, of the U.S. Supreme Court. He made rulings enabling his own family to steal large pieces of land. No, he did not disqualify himself. A major law school honors this great swindler who ran the high co! urt for some 35 years.[In Chicago, John Marshall Law School, wall to wall with the Chicago Bar Association Building.] A critic of the American class structure
[CTRL] ANTHRAX LETTERS: MORE DISINFORMATION?
-Caveat Lector- .. From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed] Note: We store 100's of related New Paradigms Posts at: http://www.msen.com/~lloyd/oldprojects/recentmail.html May 13, 2002 Subject: ANTHRAX LETTERS: MORE DISINFORMATION? WHY? WERE THE LETTERS AN OFFICIALLY APPROVED WAKE-UP CALL TO THE BIOWARFARE THREAT? By Meryl Nass, MD Are you picking up on all the weird press on anthrax lately? First, we were told there was only a trace of spores in the Wallingford, Connecticut post office, after Ottalie Lundgrens demise. Then we hear that three million spores were found initially, but there are only traces now, found on the ceiling, no less: far from staff and customers. Then we are treated to the story that the spore preparation sent in the letters last October became more highly purified with each letter. Today some bright light comes up with the idea that the letter sorters were milling machines, and caused the clustered spores to shake apart from each other, improving their offensive capability. Does that mean that as time went on, the anthrax letters were put through more and more sorting machines? This theory makes little sense. Worse, these claims are very easy to either prove or dispute, but no one is disputing them or verifying them. Anthrax spores are easily visible with a light microscope, as is the debris that would accompany a crude milling process. All one need do is look to figure out the amount of debris, and whether the spore size ranges changed. Many other simple techniques should have been used months ago that would have identified a change in the spore preparation: why wasnt this reported then? Now more anthrax spores are found in the Federal Reserve. Ive been told that spores keep turning up at other postal facilities. Debora MacKenzie of New Scientist used open information to puzzle out the fact that the anthrax which so far is the best match to that isolated from Bob Stevens in Florida came from USAMRIID at Fort Detrick, Maryland. However, since it took months for the FBI to subpoena anthrax samples from those labs working with the Ames strain, there is no reason to think that the spores being tested are as pristine as they should be. For instance, there was plenty of time to treat an anthrax preparation with substances that induce mutations, and then give it to the FBI, assured that it would have significant differences from the parent strain. What is going on? The first thing that jumps out at you is that nearly all the important statements made about the anthrax investigation lack attribution. That means that although reporters got the information from official sources, the sources asked not to be named. This is a clue to disinformation. Why might disinformation be used? For one thing, a few people may develop anthrax after inhaling a small number of spores; at least, that is how the deaths of Mrs. Lundgren and Mrs. Nguyen have been explained. Yet, given the history of anthrax spores in factories, gross contamination rarely leads to inhalation anthrax. The thinking probably goes that once spores get into the environment and begin sticking to things, they are much less likely to cause illness. This is probably what the authorities are counting on. Since there have been no new inhalation cases in nearly 6 months, and the cost of clean-ups can exceed the cost of a new building, those in authority may be gambling that there will be no more, or extremely rare, cases in future. So the sampling being done is mostly not being reported, or problems minimized, to avoid fear of contaminated post offices. Remember that many potentially affected buildings have not been tested for spores, so we really dont know the extent of spore contamination. Imagine the cost of cleaning up every building where spores have been reported, let alone every single contaminated building. You could easily be looking at billions of dollars. That is no doubt why the revelations about the Federal Reserve were followed within hours by claims that the finding is probably due to lab error or dead, irradiated spores. The question is, what is the methodology used to detect the spores? That piece of information is never provided, because if it was, you could extrapolate to find out how bad the contamination really was. For instance, when you hear there were 3 million spores found in Wallingford, does that mean three million spores grew colonies on petri dishes? Or does it mean that the test used does not identify spores unless there are at least 10,000 spores per milliliter of material, and that 300 samples tested positive? If they found 10,000 spores per milliliter, that is 50,000 in a teaspoon, and you are looking at some extremely heavy contamination. Anyway, this is just an illustration of the need to be explicit about methodology to know how bad-or good--things really are. If 3 million spores were found in Wallingford

Exclusive to American Free Press By Christopher Bollyn http://www.americanfreepress.net/03_17_02/And_Then_There_Were_None/and_then_ there_were_none.html A third witness for the prosecution in the case charging Ariel Sharon, the current Israeli prime minister, with war crimes was killed in Brazil on March 7. Michael Nassar, 39, is the third former Lebanese militia fighter to die this year who had command-level knowledge of the 1982 massacre of some 2,500 Palestinians at the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in Beirut. Nassar and his wife, Marie, 31, were shot by masked assailants with silencer-equipped pistols at a gas station in Sao Paolo, Brazil, as they waited to repair a tire, which had been punctured as they drove through a tunnel. A nephew of the former commander of Israels proxy army, the South Lebanon Army, Nassar had been an associate of Elie Hobeika, the former Phalangist leader who died in a January car bombing in Beirut. Nassar had made a fortune selling weapons to Croatian forces. The first former associate of Hobeika to be killed was Jean Ghanem, who drove his car into a tree on New Years Day. He died after being in a coma for two weeks. Nassar had called a friend because men in a car were following him. He called again to report that the pursuers seemed to have vanished, when they suddenly reappeared and fired five bullets into Nassar and seven into his wife. A Belgian court recently postponed its decision over whether to indict Sharon for his role in the massacres until May 15. However, key witnesses for the prosecution are disappearing by the week. A Lebanese witness said recently that dozens of Palestinians who survived the massacres were executed at a former barracks near Jounieh, north of Beirut, after being held in containers for two weeks. Israeli troops reportedly handed the Palestinian prisoners over to the Phalangists to be killed.

Cynthia McKinney Anatomy Of A US Military Smear Campaign Kill the Messenger http://www.fromthewilderness.com/free/ww3/050702_killthe.html Public Reaction to Rep. McKinneys Call for 9-11 Investigation Quashes Intended Media Massacre by Michael Davidson, FTW Staff Writer May 6, 2002, 12:00 PM PDT (FTW) -- It's not a good idea to go up against the powers that be with an idea that calls into question generally accepted wisdom. Galileo contradicted the Roman Catholic Church when he said the Earth revolved around the sun. He was put in jail, and it took a few hundred years for the church to exonerate him and admit he was correct. Hopefully, a fate similar to Galileo's will not befall Cynthia McKinney. McKinney is the representative from the 4th district of Georgia. The district includes Decatur, just outside Atlanta. McKinney is a Democrat, black, and, obviously, a woman. Three strikes in an area that has sent the likes of Newt Gingrich and Bob Barr to Congress. On March 25 McKinney was interviewed by telephone on Flashpoints, an independent radio program produced and hosted by Dennis Bernstein and broadcast on Pacifica station KPFA in Berkeley, Calif. The congresswoman read a roughly 10-minute statement, then answered questions and chatted with Bernstein for another 16 or so minutes. A major portion of McKinney's statement concerned U.S. actions in Africa, and contained stinging attacks of the Clinton administration, particularly former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright. She also discussed the high incarceration rate of blacks, their treatment by the police, and the actual mechanics of the massive voter fraud in Florida that benefited George W. Bush during the 2000 presidential election. Rep. McKinney also pointed out how the current administration has created a climate in which elected officials need to censor themselves lest their patriotism be questioned. Only a few sentences in the almost 30-minute segment were her comments! about the need for an investigation into what the Bush Administration knew prior to the events of 9-11. Two-and-a-half weeks later on April 12, an article appeared in the Washington Post about McKinney's appearance on Flashpoints. The article was written by Juliet Eilperin, a Post staff writer who says a colleague received the show's transcript in an anonymous e-mail, and passed it along to her. Eilperin's article was headlined, Democrat Implies Sept. 11 Administration Plot. What McKinney actually said was the American people deserve a full, complete and no-holds-barred investigation of the events involving 9-11, and what the Bush administration knew and when they knew it. Every single question McKinney raised was based on information readily available from mainstream media sources. Among the issues McKinney raised regarding 9-11 were: - The warnings from several foreign governments to the highest levels of the U.S. government that were ignored; - The huge profits made in sophisticated stock transactions involving several airlines, brokerages and insurance firms whose stock prices were affected dramatically by 9-11; - The relationship between the oil company Unocal and the Taliban rulers of Afghanistan; - The relationship between the administration and the Carlyle Group, an investment firm with major defense holdings for whom the president's father works; - The requests by both the president and vice president that any congressional investigations into 9-11 not be particularly intense or lengthy; - The huge profits persons close to the administration will make thanks to increased defense spending. Let the games begin Almost immediately after the Washington Post article, the administration, the mainstream media and its pundits shifted into overdrive, floored the pedal, and wound the smear engine right to the redline. Interestingly, no one has challenged the accuracy of a single word McKinney said. What has been said, in a variety of ways, is that her call for a complete investigation is an indication that McKinney is either crazy or treacherous. In the original Washington Post article, Bush spokesman Scott McLellan was quoted as saying The American people know the facts, and they dismiss such ludicrous, baseless views. Carlyle Group spokesman Chris Ullman posed the question Did she say these things while standing on a grassy knoll in Roswell, New Mexico?

Williams, 04/30/2002, 02:51:33 For some months I have wanted to put some thoughts on paper about Jim Marrs' latest book, RULE BY SECRECY (HarperCollins, New York, 2000, ISBN 0-06-019368-9). Any book by Jim Marrs, especially one like this, should be of serious interest to students of the JFK case. Marrs is of course the author of CROSSFIRE: THE PLOT THAT KILLED KENNEDY, a long time Dallas/Fort Worth area journalist, and the teacher of a college course on the JFK Assassination. Because I liked CROSSFIRE very much, and have often recommended it to people new to the JFK case, I also wanted very much to like this book, but the farther I got into it I began to see that this was not the book I was hoping for. I was hoping for a book that would be a major addition to the field of conspiracy theory, or more accurately the idea of history as conspiracy or geopolitics as conspiracy, a field in which we already have a great beginning with such writers and thinkers as Carroll Quigley, Lloyd Miller, Lyndon LaRouche (and his associates), Eustace Mullins, and Antony Sutton. I was also hoping for a book that could have expanded on a recent development in the field, Tony Brown's wonderful book, EMPOWER THE PEOPLE. But in the end, this book is not an advancement in the field and is in many ways a step backward. This could have been a great book. Jim Marrs has done some excellent research and has some great material to work with, but the book does not succeed in being an advancement in the field because of what I see as two major problems. In the first place it does not appear that Marrs is at all familiar with the work of the dean of the conspiracy writers himself, Lloyd Miller, and secondly much of the book rests on a foundation of already discredited works of John Robison, Nesta Webster, and on John Birch Society oriented writers of more recent times. If Jim Marrs had thoroughly studied the work of Lloyd Miller alone, I believe this would have been a very different book. It should be noted that Marrs no where says that this is a book about conspiracy theory, but he does tell us in the introduction that the Question of Conspiracy will be dealt with. The subtitle tells us that the book is about the Hidden History That Connects The Trilateral Commission, The Freemasons, And The Great Pyramids and the introduction tells us that, In Rule By Secrecy will be found new information and new ways to view history. An attempt will be made to tie together the loose ends of our collective knowledge, to make sense of a long trail of conspiratorial leads and evidence. (p. 17) Instead of tackling the idea of history as conspiracy or geopolitics as conspiracy, RULE BY SECRECY attempts to explain assassinations, wars, and revolutions as being products of secret society intrigue and attempts to fit prestige organizations such as the Council on Foreign Relations, The Trilateral Commission, and the Bilderburgers into the category of secret societies. This will not work. Secret societies, prestige organizations, intelligence agencies, foundations, media cartels, and thinks tanks, are mid level groupings serving something much larger, or as Lloyd Miller would define it, as organs that serve a larger power organism. As already mentioned Jim Marrs has some great material and in places he is moving in the right direction. For example, on page 10 he tells us, The idea that a small, wealthy ruling elite-an oligarchy-controls America appears to be well supported by facts., and ...the overwhelming evidence of obstruction to a truthful investigation of Kennedy's death indicates the use of tremendous and lasting force wielded at the highest level of the American power structure Also on page 181 is a great quote from James Steward Martin's ALL HONORABLE MEN that is more than moving in the right direction. Martin was sent to Europe after World War II as part of an investigative team that attempted to sort out the tangled web of business dealings before and during the war between American and German interests. He (Martin) was blocked continually and finally resigned in frustration. ...We had not been stopped in Germany by German business. We had been stopped in Germany by American business. The forces that stopped us had operated from the Untied States but had not operated in the open. We were not stopped by a law of Congress, by an Executive Order of the President, or even by a change of policy approved by the President ...in short, whatever it was that stopped us was not 'the government.' But it clearly had command of channels through which the government normally operates

Ruppert 4-22-2 © COPYRIGHT 2002, Michael C. Ruppert and FTW Publications, http://www.copvcia.com/ all rights reserved. May be reprinted, distributed or posted on web sites for non-profit purposes only.] April 22, 2002, 1200 PDT (FTW) -- A dispassionate examination of existing reliable, open-source evidence on advance warnings of the Sept. 11 attacks provides strong and sustainable grounds to conclude the Bush Administration was in possession of sufficient advance intelligence to have prevented the attacks, had it wished to do so. With a known intelligence budget of approximately $30 billion, it must be assumed there are classified files that only add to the weight of the available data presented here. Is it reasonable to assume that what is presented here is the only intelligence the U.S. possessed? This article will focus on four primary areas where the U.S. had information that forewarned of the attacks in sufficient detail to have prompted their prevention. Those areas are: Documented warnings received by the United States Government (USG) from foreign intelligence services; Obvious and large scale insider stock trading in the days before the attacks; Known intelligence successes achieved by the USG in its penetrations of Al Qaeda; and, the case of Delmart Mike Vreeland, a U.S. Naval intelligence officer jailed in Canada at the request of U.S. authorities, who -- with his attorneys -- spent months attempting to warn USG and Canadian intelligence officials of the pending attacks, only to be rebuffed and ignored. This article will not focus on a number of well-known and documented instances where the Bush Administration actively interfered with or curtailed investigations into Al Qaeda-linked groups that could have provided even more intelligence. Included in this category are reports by the BBC s Gregg Palast, the French book The Forbidden Truth, and a lawsuit/OPR complaint filed by an active FBI agent alleging investigations that could have prevented the attacks were derailed by superiors, in some cases on orders from the White House. WARNINGS FROM FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE SERVICES This section focuses on known advance warnings received by the U.S. government from foreign intelligence services that proved to be specific enough to have identified the date (within one week), method, targets, and perpetrators of the attacks. It will not include warnings issued to the USG that could be considered vague or non-specific. The latter includes documented warnings sent by the governments of Egypt and Israel. However, in light of the specific warnings, these additional warnings add greater weight to the argument that the Administration was in possession of sufficient information to have prevented the attacks. As reported in the respected German daily Frankfurter Algemeine Zeitung (FAZ) on Sept. 14, 2001 the German intelligence service, the BND, warned both the CIA and Israel that Middle Eastern terrorists were planning to hijack commercial aircraft to use as weapons to attack important symbols of American and Israeli culture. The story specifically referred to an electronic eavesdropping system known as Echelon, wherein a number of countries tap cell phone and electronic communications in partner countries and then pool the information. The BND warnings were also passed to the United Kingdom. No known denial by the BND of the accuracy of this story exists, and the FAZ story indicates that the information was received directly from BND sources. According to a Sept. 14 report in the Internet newswire online.de, German police, monitoring the phone calls of a jailed Iranian man, learned the man was telephoning USG intelligence agencies in summer 2001 to warn of an imminent attack on the World Trade Center (WTC) in the week of Sept. 9. German officials confirmed the calls to the USG for the story but refused to discuss additional details. In August 2000 French intelligence sources confirmed a man recently arrested in Boston by the FBI was an Islamic militant and a key member of Osama bin Laden s Al Qaeda network. The FBI knew the man had been taking flying lessons at the time of his arrest and was in possession of technical information on Boeing aircraft and flight manuals, as reported by Reuters on Sept. 13. According to a story in Izveztia on Sept. 12, Russian intelligence warned the USG that as many as 25 suicide pilots were training for missions involving the crashing of airliners into important targets.

Skolnick, identifies an erupting Catholic vs. Protestant split in the American aristocracy. The entire report is (or will soon be) available at Mr. Skolnick's web site, http://www.skolnicksreport.com The Protestant faction in the American aristocracy is identified as affiliated with George W. Bush, the current U.S. president, his father, Sir George Bush, and more generally The Bush Crime Family and the British aristocracy. The Catholic faction consists, according to Skolnick, of the Vatican, the House of Rothschild, Irish-Catholics and more specifically, Irish-Democrat Catholics. This faction fight is logically traced by Mr. Skolnick to the hotly disputed year 2000 presidential election in which George W. Bush, aligned with the British faction, eventually succeeded to the presidency. Skolnick cites evidence linking the Bush cabal with the British royals, including the Bush Crime Family's joint account with the Queen of England at her private bank, Coutts Bank London. So is it more than just a coincidence? That to divert attention from Bush/Cheney and their direct complicity with Enron, that a few Catholic priests are scandalized as having many years ago sexually molested choir boys? writes Skolnick. This echoes a previous report by Conspiracy Nation in which it is surmised that A-Albionic's thesis of the British Empire and the Vatican being in mortal combat for control of the world is behind the erupting boil of priestly pedophilia mass media news now saturating outlets. (Excited Catholics Await Pope's Death.) Vatican leverage at this point, writes Skolnick, includes possession of documents, via Italy's Banca Nazionale del Lavoro (BNL), showing a secret partnership between the Bush Family and Saddam Hussein. To the uninitiated, Skolnick's claim of a Bush/Hussein business connection may seem incredible; to readers who have studied the matter, it is not far-fetched. Skolnick backs up his claim of a Catholic vs. Protestant faction fight now ongoing amongst the American aristocracy by citing F. Tupper Saussy's book, *Rulers of Evil*. (Reno: Ospray Bookmakers, 1999): The growing and evident split in the American aristocracy has to be considered from the historical standpoint of Protestant versus Catholic. A heavily documented recent book summarizes on its jacket, the work of the author 'His labors have rewarded us with valuable new proofs of a vast Roman Catholic substratum to American history. Evidence suggests that Jesuits played eminent and under-appreciated roles in moving the complacent New Englanders to rebel against their mother country in 1776. Indeed, according to Saussy's discoveries, the American Revolution and its resulting constitutional republic may have been largely the outworking of an ingenious Jesuit strategy single-handedly designed and supervised by a true founding father few Americans have ever heard of---Lorenzo Ricci.

[CTRL] Vatican launches war against Israeli Crimes!

Project Vatican vs Judeo/Masonic/Anglophile Conflict Theory Proven Vatican launches war against Israeli crimes Palestine-Vatican, Politics, 4/15/2002 The Vatican launched a semi-official warfare against Israel terming its re-occupation of Palestinian territories as genocide against the Palestinian people, due to which the international community must intervene. This is, of course, an unprecedented accusation leveled by the Vatican to Israel whose Politica1 significance prompts other western parties to oppose Israeli policies. In its official Gazette, the Vatican stressed that the genocide against the Palestinians has got nothing to do with allegations by Israel that its war is against terrorism. It added that this war aimed at preventing Palestinians from realizing their dream of establishing their independent state. It stressed that the current war against Palestinians lacked all forms of international legitimacy. Commenting on this war, the Vatican says that the current war, waged by Israel in collaboration with the Americans against! Muslim Palestinian people, is not religiously blessed. Rather it is condemned by all Catholic Church archbishops in the world. The Vatican urged all Catholics in the world to unify ranks to condemn the religiously unlawful war against Palestinians. Getting out to the diplomatic chess board, the Vatican recalled the American and Israeli ambassadors informing them that Pope John Paul II rejected calling the current war against Palestinians as anti-terrorism war. The Pope urged Israel to withdraw immediately from the occupied territories and urged the Americans to stop their support to Israel, through public recall of the two ambassadors, the Vatican said that all Christians in the World particularly the Catholics support the Palestinian people. Thus, it expressed its readiness to establish an international alliance with Islamic leadership to face up the Israeli-American alliance after the Europeans had rejected to join them in them aggression against the Palestinian p! eople or Iraqi people in the future.

[CTRL] BILDERBERG FOUND
-Caveat Lector- .. From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed] Note: We store 100's of related New Paradigms Posts at: http://www.msen.com/~lloyd/oldprojects/recentmail.html http://www.americanfreepress.net/03_31_02/BILDERBERG_FOUND/bilderberg_found.html Subject: BILDERBERG FOUND POWER ELITE TO MEET NEAR D.C. The super-secret gang of international financiers and high-powered political leaders will hide out near Washingtons Dulles International Airport to hold their annual confabulation. Exclusive to American Free Press By James P. Tucker Jr. Bilderberg will seal off the Westfields Marriott, just seven miles south of Washingtons Dulles International Airport in Chantilly, Va., for its annual meeting of the super-rich and super-famous on the weekend of May 30-June 2. While it is the closest Bilderberg has ever come to Washington for annual secret meetings to plot the worlds future, Westfields is ideal for the security-paranoid international elite. Westfields stands in lonely grandeur with much space separating the resort from tall brick buildings in a luxury office park. Perhaps coincidentally, neighboring office buildings are home to numerous spy organizations. The last time Bilderberg met in Virginia was 1962, when the secret gang of international financiers and political leaders took over all of Colonial Williamsburg in Williamsburg, Va. Bilderberg tends to meet on the same continent as the Group of Eight economic summits, which follow shortly afterwards, featuring heads of state from the worlds industrialized nations. The G-8 will meet in Alberta, Canada June 26-28. Bilderbergs junior varsity, the Trilateral Commission, will meet April 5-7 in Washington at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. Bilderberg and the TC have an interlocking leadership and a common global agenda. David Rockefeller and Henry Kissinger are powers in both groups. Trilaterals have about 320 participants while the more exclusive Bilderberg has about 120. The TC includes Japan, while Bilderberg draws only from Europe and North America. Both high-powered groups plan the future, together, of the entire world. BILDERBERGS AGENDA High on their common agenda this year is how to exploit the war on terrorism to increase their control of the world without borders while generating immense profits. The Trilaterals will meet behind closed doors at the Ritz Carlton but not seal off the entire downtown hotel. Bilderberg will have armed guards blocking the entrance to Westfields and none but participants will be permitted inside. There will be no other guests. Sources inside both groups say they will try to exploit the new war on terrorism to advance an old agenda: Establishing NATO formally as the United Nations standing army, imposing a direct UN tax on the world, global gun control and selling the Free Trade Area of the Americas as a necessary step to ward off future attacks. It is all part of a grand design to establish a world government under the UN. As NAFTA expands through out the Western Hemisphere as the FTAA it is to evolve into the American Union and dollarization is to be come the common currency, as the euro is in Europe. Bilderberg luminaries have directly acknowledged this to an American Free Press reporter. Other Bilderberg sources said the site near Washing ton was chosen for several reasons. Dulles is considered one of the most secure airports in the wake of 9-11 and it is a short ride in flag-draped limos to Westfields. While instant communication with the White House has always been easy, wherever in the world Bilderberg hides, it is a 30-mile drive for any high official of the administration who may be summoned on short notice. High officials of the administration will be attending the full three-day session anyway.

Conspiracy Theories If I were the person in charge of neutralizing resistance to the New World Order or some similar operation the first thing I would do is flood the media with all kinds of bullshit conspiracy theories, each one of which had some merits but which eventually folded under rigorous examination. This would accomplish two important things: First, it would divert attention from the conspiracy of which I was a part of and, second, it would discredit the general idea that a conspiracy exists, inasmuch as the plethora of conspiracy theories out there are either implausible and transparently goofy or, even if they appeared to have merit, were impossible to verify. Conspiracy theories have a strange kind of visceral appeal, especially to people who feel powerless, and they're easy to fabricate. Any skillful writer can whip up a superficially plausable conspiracy theory in a couple of evenings. A number of comic books and satires have appeared to this end. From the standpoint of a bona fide conspirator, what is important is to keep the noise level high enough to block out the real signal, and the real conspiracy continues apace. Where does one begin in sorting things out? I think the first step would be to discard all metaphysical, religious, and other-worldly conspiracy theories out of hand. The minute the word cult or UFO appears in a conspiracy theory, it's a red flag. A plausible conspiracy would be entirely rational (although it's manipulative devices would make wide use of irrationality), it would be present-era (ancient conspiracies continuing unabated are highly unlikely), and it would involve an altruistic rationale, such as saving the world from itself. It would also be likely to be in plain view, although concealed largely be selective inattention. More than this I'm not prepared to say.

From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed] Note: We store 100's of related New Paradigms Posts at: http://www.msen.com/~lloyd/oldprojects/recentmail.html Subject: CIA had foreknowledge Dear friends, The Enron scandal is just the tip of the iceberg. President George W. Bush has announced that 2002 will be a year of war. This war, which according to Vice President Dick Cheney may not end in our lifetimes, has been in the works for at least four years. The CIA had foreknowledge of and complicity in the September 11th attacks: While Bill Clinton issued a finding in 2000 that bin Laden was eligible for execution, the Bush administration ordered intelligence agencies to back off investigations involving the bin Laden family. In 2001, bin Laden was hospitalized in an American hospital in Dubai and was visited by the CIA. The CIA also met with the Pakistani ISI, whose chief, Lt. General Mahmud Ahmad, wired $100,000 to lead terrorist of the suicide hijackings, Mohammed Atta. In July 2001, three American officials met with Pakistani and Russian intelligence in Berlin and told them that the U.S. is planning military strikes against Afghanistan in October. Meanwhile, German and Russian intelligence warned the CIA that terrorists were going to strike U.S. airports and government buildings. Days before the attacks, thousands of put options, bets that a stock will go down, were placed on United Airlines and American Airlines. Such drastic stock trading is monitored by the CIA to prevent such attacks. Many of the puts were purchased through Deutschebank/AB Brown, a firm formally managed by current CIA Executive Director A.B. Buzzy Krongard. This may not be the first time the U.S. staged terrorist attacks to support a war: http://abcnews.go.com/sections/us/DailyNews/jointchiefs_010501.html. Detailed evidence of the CIA's foreknowledge and complicity can be found below. For best results in opening the links, copy and paste the URL address to another browser window.

Please forward this to everyone you think should know. Here is a brief timeline surrounding the attacks: (For the full timeline go to http://www.copvcia.com/stories/nov_2001/lucy.html .) 1997 - The book The Grand Chessboard; American Primacy and its Geostrategic Imperatives, written by Zbigniew Brzezinski, is published by Basic Books. Zbigniew Brzezinski is the former National Security Advisor to President Jimmy Carter and Co-chairman of the Bush National Security Advisory Task Force. In it he writes, The public supported America's engagement in World War II largely because of the shock effect of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Turkmenistan.has been actively exploring the construction of a new pipeline through Afghanistan and Pakistan to the Arabian Sea. It follows that America's primary interest is to help ensure that no single power comes to control this geopolitical space and that the global community has unhindered financial and economic access to it. That puts a premium on maneuver and manipulation in order to prevent the emergence of a hostile coalition that could eventually seek to challenge America's primacy. Moreover, as America becomes an increasingly multi-cultural society, it may find it more difficult to fashion a consensus on foreign policy issues, except in the circumstance of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat.

[CTRL] The Rothschild Formula
-Caveat Lector- .. From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed] Note: We store 100's of related New Paradigms Posts at: http://www.msen.com/~lloyd/oldprojects/recentmail.html From: UNIVERSAL ISSUES [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: The Rothschild Formula Date: Friday, February 15, 2002 11:20 AM The Rothschild Formula(1) by G. Edward Griffin Let us imagine a man who is totally pragmatic. He is smarter and more cunning than most men and, in fact, holds them in thinly disguised contempt. He may respect the talents of a few, but has little concern over the condition of mankind. He has observed that kings and politicians are always fighting over something or other and has concluded that wars are inevitable. He also has learned that wars can be profitable, not only by lending or creating the money to finance them, but from government favoritism in the granting of commercial subsidies or monopolies. He is not capable of such a primitive feeling as patriotism, so he is free to participate in the funding of any side in any conflict, limited only by the factors of self interest. If such a man were to survey the world around him, it is not difficult to imagine that he would come to the following conclusions which would become the prime directives of his career: 1.. War is the ultimate discipline to any government. If it can successfully meet the challenge of war, it will survive. If it cannot, it will perish. All else is secondary. The sanctity of its laws, the prosperity of its citizens, and the solvency of it treasury will be quickly sacrificed by any government in its primal act of self-survival. 2.. All that is necessary, therefore, to ensure that a government will maintain or expand its debt is to involve it in war or the threat of war. The greater the threat and the more destructive the war, the greater the need for debt. 3.. To involve a country in war or the threat of war, it will be necessary for it to have enemies with credible military might. If such enemies already exist, all the better. If they exist but lack military strength, it will be necessary to provide them the money to build their war machine. If an enemy does not exist at all, then it will be necessary to create one by financing the rise of a hostile regime. 4.. The ultimate obstacle is a government which declines to finance its wars through debt. Although this seldom happens, when it does, it will be necessary to encourage internal political opposition, insurrection, or revolution to replace that government with one that is more compliant to our will. The assassination of heads of state could play an important role in this process. 5.. No nation can be allowed to remain militarily stronger than its adversaries, for that could lead to peace and a reduction of debt. To accomplish this balance of power, it may be necessary to finance both sides of the conflict. Unless one of the combatants is hostile to our interests and, therefore, must be destroyed, neither side should be allowed a decisive victory or defeat. While we must always proclaim the virtues of peace, the unspoken objective is perpetual war. Whether anyone actually put this strategy into words or passed it along from generation to generation is not important. In fact, it is doubtful it has ever worked that way. Whether it is the product of conscious planning or merely the consequence of men responding to the profit opportunities inherent in fiat money(2), the world's financial lords have acted as though they were following such a plan, and this has become especially apparent since the creation of the central-bank Mandrake Mechanism(3) three centuries ago. The balance-of-power question is particularly intriguing. Most history texts present the concept as though it were some kind of natural, social phenomenon which, somehow, has worked to the benefit of mankind. The implication is that it's just wonderful how, after all those European wars, no nation was strong enough to completely dominate the others. When the United States emerged from World War II with exactly such power, it was widely deplored, and massive political/financial mechanisms such as foreign aid and disarmament were set in motion to restore the balance.

But he wasn't the last of the Hitler line. He had a nephew, William Patrick Hitler, who grew up in England, moved to America, and had three sons. The story of those Hitlers is told in a new documentary, The Last of the Hitlers, based on the book of the same name by British journalist David Gardner. CNN's Paula Zahn spoke to Gardner on Tuesday's American Morning. PAULA ZAHN, CNN ANCHOR: Very remarkable story to share with you now. There are three brothers who live normal, anonymous lives with their mother in a modest house in Long Island, New York. But the three men have a darkly unique heritage. They happen to be the great nephews of Adolf Hitler, the last known living relatives of the murderous tyrant. A new documentary, called The Last of the Hitlers, tells the story of the brothers, and their bizarre pact with each other never to have children in order to sever the bloodline of their infamous relative. The film is based on the fascinating book of the same name by journalist David Gardner, who joins us now from Los Angeles, California. So David, how did you find these brothers? Photos of Hitler's great nephews that appear in Gardner's book DAVID GARDNER, AUTHOR, THE LAST OF THE HITLERS: Well, it was a long journey. About 1995, I was working with a news agency in New York, and I was asked to try and track them down, track down William Patrick Hitler, who was Hitler's nephew. There had been some cuttings, old newspaper cuttings, from before the Second World War, and that's pretty much the last anyone heard of him. So, I kind of started with a phone book, looking under Hitler in the phone book. Didn't get very far. It was a long journey. Took me about four years to find the family. ZAHN: And once you found them, what proof did you have that these men were actually related to Hitler? GARDNER: Well, for a start, I had birth dates, and documentary evidence before I actually approached the family, and then when I actually knocked at their door, this is the first time anyone had actually knocked at their door for 50 years. So it was something of a shock to them, but William Patrick's widow confirmed that her husband was indeed -- or had indeed -- been the nephew of Adolf Hitler. ZAHN: Sorry -- sorry. I was just going to refer back to the head shots we just saw. There didn't seem to be any overt physical resemblance to Adolf Hitler. What were the similarities you found, if any, between these nephews and their uncle? GARDNER: Well, I think that is the point. Apart from a very vague resemblance in looks, these -- this part of the family is so far removed from Adolf. They've lived all-American lives. They live in a small town in Long Island. ... They were born in America, and these are the American Hitlers, in effect. But they've lived very different lives to the one that the Fuhrer lived, and indeed, a different life than then one their father lived. Their father actually grew up in England, spent six, seven years in Germany in the 1930s, where his uncle gave him a job, and then he came to America just before the Second World War, and the family's been here ever since. ZAHN: Tell us a little bit about this blackmail letter that you learned of. Who had the letter and what did it tell us? GARDNER: Well, William Patrick, as I said, was working in Germany in the '30s, and he'd gone there hoping to benefit from his uncle's position. At that time, having a Hitler in Germany, there was a good chance he was going to get a good position, but he found that he was kind of knocked around -- he worked at a lowly bank job, he worked in a car factory, never really getting any decent money or any position. He sent a blackmail letter to Adolf, basically saying: If you don't give me a better job and treat me a little bit better, I'll go public with the speculation within the family that Hitler himself had a Jewish grandfather. ZAHN: Whatever became of that threat? GARDNER: Well, in fact, Hitler kind of bowed down to it, this lowly nephew, and did give him some money, which is kind of curious. I mean, of all the terrible things that Hitler did, the one person that stood up to him seems to have been his own nephew, and who went away with the equivalent now to a quarter-million dollars.

He is probably right, and he might have gone on to note that government has failed in its promise to protect Americans against terrorism, and that would-be terrorists of the world are now more motivated than ever before. This should raise some fundamental questions about the whole rationale of the war and U.S. foreign policy. In a 1997 report on the scourge of terrorism, the Pentagon's Defense Science Board observed: Historical data show a strong correlation between U.S. involvement in international situations and an increase in terrorist attacks against the United States. Recognizing that fact is crucial to understanding why both terror and the response to terror have become such grave threats to freedom and prosperity. As a part of its status as the worlds only superpower, the U.S. is the only country in the world that actively attempts to police regions outside its own, so it should come as no surprise that one-third of all terrorist attacks worldwide are perpetrated against U.S. targets. Far from providing security, U.S. policy is stirring up security threats, even as the government uses the aftermath of successful attacks as rationales to expand government power. Lets recount some highlights of the last half-century of terror in light of U.S. foreign policy: o November 1, 1950: Puerto Rican nationalists attempt to assassinate President Truman. In 1954, the House of Representatives would be sprayed with gunfire, wounding five congressmen. In 1973 and again in 1974, bombs would be set off in New York City. In 1975, the FALN would plant bombs in New York, Chicago and Washington, D.C., killing several people and wounding dozens. o June 5, 1968: Robert F. Kennedy is assassinated by Sirhan Sirhan, a Palestinian immigrant who regarded RFK as a collaborator with Israel. o March 1971: The U.S. Senate is bombed again. Suspected this time are opponents of the Vietnam fiasco. o November 4, 1979: Supporters of the Ayatollah Khomeini storm the U.S. embassy in Teheran in anger at the longtime U.S. support for the Shah's despotic regime. It would not be until two years later that the hostages would be freed. o December 1979: A mob of Iranians burns down the U.S. embassy in Tripoli, Libya. Iranian-sponsored terrorism against the United States is promoted as a just cause in retaliation for U.S. support for the Shah and Israel. o April 8, 1983: The Iranian-backed Hezbollah bombs the U.S. embassy in Beirut, Lebanon. The attack kills 17 Americans. All attacks by Hezbollah in Lebanon around this time are in retaliation for the U.S. openly choosing sides, supporting the Christian government against the Muslim militias by training and arming the Lebanese National Army (the LNA). U.S. Marines even began patrolling with the LNA, and the U.S. Navy and Marines began shelling the Muslims to support the LNA. o October 23, 1983: A suicide truck-bomber from Hezbollah attacks the U.S. embassy and destroys the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut, killing 290 people and wounding 200 more. The U.S. Marines soon withdraw from Beirut. A Hezbollah spokesman brags that it took only two martyrs to force the Marines out of Lebanon: one who blew up the embassy, and the other who drove the truck that destroyed the Marine barracks. In September 1984, Hezbollah would bomb the U.S. embassy annex in East Beirut, killing 23 people and wounding four Marine guards. During the 1980s, Hezbollah would kidnap 19 American diplomats, educators, businessmen, clergy, journalists, and military personnel, and kill at least four. o March 1986: The largest peacetime American naval armada ever assembled sails across the line of death, which, according to Khadafy, marks Libyan territorial waters in the Gulf of Sidra. Fulfilling the predictions of U.S. defense analysts, he shoots off missiles at the fleet. U.S. forces then destroy a missile site and three Libyan naval craft. In retaliation, Khadafy sponsors the bombing on April 5, 1986, of the La Belle nightclub in West Berlin, which killed an American soldier and a Turkish woman. On April 15, 1986 (two weeks after the line of death incident in late March), the U.S. retaliates for the La Belle

He was a man under pressure. Like other directors, he sold shares as the firm's losses were hidden. He had documents; investigators wanted to speak to him. He was talking of hiring a bodyguard. David Randall 27 January 2002 Palm Royale Boulevard is not the kind of street where you expect to see fancy sedans parked up at two in the morning. The tree-lined road runs through Sugar Land, one of Houston's snazzier suburbs. Everyone has off-street parking here, especially if they own a brand-new Mercedes like the one the patrolling officer could see by the kerb with its lights out. As he got closer he could make out a figure in the driver's seat. He tried the door, but it was locked. It was only when he broke the window that he discovered the body of J Clifford Baxter, graduate of Columbia Business School, former Enron executive, and now the very recently dead repository of knowledge about what really happened in the biggest corporate scandal in history. He had been shot in the head. Once. Beside him lay a gun and a note. We now know the gun was a .38 calibre revolver. What we don't yet know is precisely what the note said, but ABC television, quoting sources close to the investigation into this apparent suicide, say it referred to Enron and the pressures that were piling up on this happily married, 43-year-old father of two and which built up in his mind until the one way he could see out of it all was to put a bullet in his head. And the pressures were considerable. The company he used to work for had become the biggest ever corporate bankruptcy, and revelations were coming daily about how its directors, Baxter among them, had hidden losses offshore while selling shares for hundreds of millions of pounds. When the share price collapsed, the staff's pensions were practically worthless. There was politics, too. Enron threw money at politicians like confetti at a wedding. Baxter, concerned about all this, had spoken out in the Enron offices, and then left the firm suddenly last May. And congressional investigations were under way. Officials wanted to speak to Baxter and see documents still in his possession. He knew an awful lot. That is why, according to colleagues, he was worried. He had briefed lawyers, and, according to Jerry V Mutchlen, president of the charity Junior Achievement of Texas, where Baxter sat on the board, was depressed and disappointed about all that had happened. Another former business associate went further. Baxter, he said, broke down in tears during a phone call two days ago. He was even, the businessman added, talking about perhaps needing a bodyguard. After all, he knew a lot. Maybe more than anyone imagined. Until Enron imploded in the autumn, Clifford Baxter seemed to be a man who had it made; more than £20m made, in fact, from selling Enron shares alone. He lived with his wife, Carol L Whalen, in a half-a-million-dollar colonial-style home in Sweetwater, much the toniest part of Sugar Land, had a son of 16 and an 11-year- old daughter, and was wealthy enough to fund a charitable foundation named after him and his wife. It gave to causes such as a local Catholic church and the Republican Party. He also had a 72-ft yacht, Tranquility Base, on which he had spent much time since leaving Enron. He seemed, according to Ross Tuckwiller, general manager of the Houston Yacht Club, happy there. But he also knew a lot. Maybe that was why, according to friends, he was planning to buy a faster boat and use it to travel. It must have all seemed a far cry from the day in 1991 when the Columbia MBA (top of the class of '87), then aged 32, joined a small energy company called Enron

By Patrick J. Buchanan January 12, 1999 On the day after Pearl Harbor, ex-President Herbert Hoover sat down and wrote to friends You and I know that this continuous putting pins in rattlesnakes finally got this country bitten. Japan's sneak attack was one of the great acts of state terror, but its motive was desperation. The United States had cut off Japan's oil and sent Tokyo an ultimatum: Withdraw from Indochina and China, or we bring you to your knees. Japan decided to seize the oil of the East Indies and eliminate the one force that could stop her: the U.S. fleet. Yet, after we crushed Japan, China fell to Mao and Indochina to Ho Chi Minh and the Khmer Rouge. Had we never intervened in East Asia, Japanese, not Americans, would likely have done the fighting and dying in Korea and Vietnam to contain Asian communism. What calls to mind the phrase putting pins in rattlesnakes is an unsettling paper by the Cato Institute's Ivan Eland: Does U.S. Intervention Overseas Breed Terrorism? The Historical Record. Eland's argument: Americans are the principal targets of terrorists because of our constant meddling in foreign wars. If we do not abandon our compulsive interventionism, we will one day be subjected to an act of cataclysmic terror, with a weapon of mass destruction, perhaps nuclear. Already, we have come close. The World Trade Center bomb was designed to bring down one of those 110-story towers and kill perhaps 50,000 Americans. Had the terrorists used poison gas, they might have killed more than the 3,000 who died at Pearl Harbor. And Osama Bin Laden, the rich, U.S.-hating Saudi terrorist reportedly has long been in the market for a nuclear weapon. Eland's empirical evidence linking U.S. military interventions to retaliatory acts of terrorism is impressive. Consider: U.S. Marines were sent into Lebanon to bolster a Christian regime in 1983. Result: Islamic terrorists bombed our embassy and Marine barracks, killing hundreds, and Ronald Reagan withdrew the Marines. Before 1981, Libya's Col. Qaddafi had not targeted Americans. But Reagan sent U.S. ships and planes across his line of death in the Gulf of Sidra, shot down his jets and sank his patrol boats. Result: Qaddafi blew up La Belle nightclub in Berlin, wounding dozens of GIs. Reagan answered with air strikes. Qaddafi retaliated with eight acts of terrorism, by Eland's count, the most horrific being the downing of Pan Am 103. In 1992, George Bush intervened in Somalia. Bin Laden trained the terrorists who lured U.S. Rangers into a trap, killed 18 and dragged the body of one through Mogadishu. Bill Clinton pulled out. Bin Laden calls Somalia his greatest victory and is believed to have planned the 1998 bombings of our embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. What motivates him? Hatred of America because of our huge military presence on Islam's sacred soil of Saudi Arabia. Robert Kennedy was murdered by a West Bank Palestinian. George Bush was targeted for assassination by Iraqis. Filipino terrorists used to attack Americans until we withdrew from Subic Bay and Clark Air Force Base. Now, they don't. The seizure of the U.S. embassy in Tehran and other acts of state terror by the mullahs stem from U.S. military support of the shah until 1979. Today, there is a near-identical U.S. presence in Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Both regimes are despised by many of their own people, and Americans have been targets of terrorist attacks in both. America is the only nation on Earth to claim a right to intervene militarily in every region of the world. But this foreign policy is not America's tradition; it is an aberration. During our first 150 years, we renounced interventionism and threatened war on any foreign power that dared to intervene in our hemisphere. Can we, of all people, not understand why foreigners bitterly resent our intrusions? With the Cold War over, why invite terrorist attacks on our citizens and country, ultimately with biological, chemical or nuclear weapons? No nation threatens us. But with the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, America will inevitably be targeted. And the cataclysmic terror weapon is more likely to come by Ryder truck or container ship than by ICBM. And no SDI will stop it. Madeleine Albright describes terrorism as the biggest threat to our country . . . as we enter the 21st century. But battling

It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters. -- Noah Webster ~~for educational purposes only~~ [Title 17 U.S.C. section 107] Paris Reporters Say Bush Threatened War Last Summer by James Ridgeway Far from the American media machine, two French authors have released a report outlining U.S. attempts to finesse the issue of Osama bin Laden long before Al Qaeda struck on September 11. Based on extensive firsthand reporting, Jean-Charles Brisard and Guillaume Dasquié write in their book, Bin Laden: The Forbidden Truth, that the Bush administration went so far as to consider waging war against Afghanistan's ruling Taliban last summer. Brisard and Dasquié argue the U.S. cared more about getting access to the region's oil than about getting the head of Osama bin Laden. Now thousands of U.S. citizens are dead and Al Qaeda is on the run. Dasquié tells the Voice he doubts the group will last more than a few weeks. The journalist describes bin Laden's military leaders as mostly former members of the Egyptian special forces who joined with the Saudi exile in 1992 and 1993 during fighting in Sudan. Al Qaeda commanders and troops are the military product of a religious deviance, he says, warning that ending the network won't solve anything because the Saudi charities and other organizations tied to the clerics will go on pumping out the money. The problem is their fundamentalism. Brisard, who has run Vivendi International's economic intelligence service, prepared the West's first report on Al Qaeda back in 1997, at the request of the French government. Along with Dasquié, he now argues the FBI's efforts to get to the bottom of bin Laden's terror outfitwhich bombed two American embassies in Africa in 1998were blocked by the Saudi royal family and the big oil companies, which were hungry for the region's crude reserves. The FBI press office had no comment on the book, and the State Department has steadily denied having any negotiations with the Taliban, which had no diplomatic standing in the U.S. But the two authors think highly of the FBI agents who were working on counterterrorism, saying they often had excellent informants. That's not to say progress was great. When an FBI agent would turn up to do an interview, the Saudis would step in with their own bizarre behavior. We uncovered incredible things, Dasquié tells the Voice. Investigators would arrive to find that key witnesses they were about to interrogate had been beheaded the day before. In the end, he says, the West always considered Saudi Arabia as a partner that we absolutely and systematically had to protect. The book also reveals a portrait of U.S. policy toward the Taliban that differs sharply from the one usually held up for the American public but coincides with that of the Taliban's unofficial emissary in the U.S., Laili Helms, the niece of the former CIA head (see The Accidental Operative, Voice, June 19, 2001). Helms described one incident after another in which, she claimed, the Taliban agreed to give up bin Laden to the U.S., only to be rebuffed by the State Department. On one occasion, she said, the Taliban agreed to give the U.S. coordinates for his campsite, leaving enough time so the Yanks could whack Al Qaeda's leader with a missile before he moved. The proposal, she claims, was nixed. The State Department denied receiving any such offer. Helms also related an incident when Prince Turki, then the head of Saudi intelligence, flew to Kabul to negotiate bin Laden's arrest. Turki, according to Helms's account of the story, wanted bin Laden murdered on Afghan soil. If he were killed there, then the Saudi royal family needn't face the embarrassment of airing their dirty linen in an open trial. The Taliban refused, and Turki returned home empty-handed. Brisard and Dasquié characterize the U.S. as playing a clumsy footsie with the Taliban, with diplomacy unfolding in a series of bizarre fits and starts. By the late 1990s, the writers claim, diplomacy was run on different levels. One channel went from the UN Security Council to Kabul. Meanwhile, the State Department conducted its own bilateral negotiations. From the start, the U.S. favored a sort of covert support for the Taliban, in hopes that sooner or later the one-eyed

Viruses and other micro-organisms tailored to detect the differences in the DNA of races could offer warmakers and terrorists of the future a new means to carry out ethnic cleansing. The panel also declared that, while only a theoretical possibility now, this capability adds urgency to the need to add verification procedures to the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention signed by 140 nations including the U.S., U.K. and Russia. To that end, a conference of the signatories was held last year to discuss and implement verification procedures. Near the end of the conference, the U.S. representative raised several new objections resulting in postponing any action for a year. Aside from the naiveté in believing a signature on a treaty or convention is going to shut down weapons development programs, the panel may have grossly underestimated the time frame in which the weapons could become reality. The two key elements in developing such weapons are the decoding of the human genome (DNA) and advances in gene therapy (altering of genes). Both disciplines are advancing at an accelerated pace and the targeting capability may already be a reality. Billions of taxpayer dollars and private funds are being pumped into research and development in the two areas. While the findings have tremendous potential in conquering various diseases, they also can be used for nefarious purposes. Various universities and non-profit entities are receiving grants to carry on studies. Two approaches can be used in deploying the technology as weapons. Super germs can be developed that are resistant to known treatments along with development of vaccines that would protect only certain groups with similar DNA properties from the germs. Alternatively, toxins could be developed that attack only certain DNA groups. To the casual observer it might seem, with all the entities involved in the research and development programs, that coordination of all the findings and results would be difficult to coordinate at best. As we have shown in part two of this analysis with regard to anthrax vaccine, the effort is quite controlled with Battelle Memorial Institute (BMI) exerting maximum influence as surrogate for the federal government. The same is true for the development of other vaccines. BMI has partnered with a large, but unknown number of universities and other organizations in the field of DNA research. Such research requires the availability of significant funding for expensive equipment and highly paid scientists. BMI appears to have some influence in awarding of grants and its partners seem able to raise the large amounts of money necessary to continue the research. Most of the visible government grants in the field flow through the Department of Energy (DOE) which is overseeing the human genome project. BMI is the operator or co-operator of four of the five national laboratories under the DOE. As such, BMI manages the collection and collation of data on the human genome into one database comprising the most comprehensive information available in the field. Those who would pervert and convert the available information for the development of weapons have a problem. Many if not most of the scientists involved in the field are working for the betterment of mankind in conquering diseases. If they were to become aware of efforts to pervert the research, they might raise objections and expose those responsible. (Some may already have reached that point.) This might be the explanation of the recent mysterious deaths and murders of top scientists in the field. Then again it might just be the concept of compartmentalization where few are to be privy to the total picture. Since the September 11 attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center, no less than seven or eight top microbiologists have been murdered or died under suspicious circumstances. Dr. Benito Que, a cell biologist working on infectious diseases at the University of Miami was found beaten to death outside of his laboratory. Authorities say a mugging is suspected. Dr. Robert M. Schwartz, a well-known DNA sequencing researcher was found murdered in his secluded Loudoun County home in Virginia. Police have arrested

Not only are our thoughts and attitudes continually being shaped and molded; our very awareness of the whole design seems like it is being subtly and inexorably erased. The doors of our perception are carefully and precisely regulated. Who cares, right? It is an exhausting and endless task to keep explaining to people how most issues of conventional wisdom are scientifically implanted in the public consciousness by a thousand media clips per day. In an effort to save time, I would like to provide just a little background on the handling of information in this country. Once the basic principles are illustrated about how our current system of media control arose historically, the reader might be more apt to question any given story in today's news. If everybody believes something, it's probably wrong. We call that Conventional Wisdom. In America, conventional wisdom that has mass acceptance is usually contrived: somebody paid for it. Examples: a.. Pharmaceuticals restore health b.. Vaccination brings immunity c.. The cure for cancer is just around the corner d.. When a child is sick, he needs immediate antibiotics e.. When a child has a fever he needs Tylenol f.. Hospitals are safe and clean. g.. America has the best health care in the world. h.. And many many more This is a list of illusions, that have cost billions and billions to conjure up. Did you ever wonder why you never see the President speaking publicly unless he is reading? Or why most people in this country think generally the same about most of the above issues? How This Set-Up Got Started In Trust Us We're Experts, Stauber and Rampton pull together some compelling data describing the science of creating public opinion in America. They trace modern public influence back to the early part of the last century, highlighting the work of guys like Edward L. Bernays, the Father of Spin. From his own amazing chronicle Propaganda [available from A-albionic Reseasch $20.00 + $4.95 postage and handling; http://a-albionic.com/merchform.html], we learn how Edward L. Bernays took the ideas of his famous uncle Sigmund Freud himself, and applied them to the emerging science of mass persuasion. The only difference was that instead of using these principles to uncover hidden themes in the human unconscious, the way Freudian psychology does, Bernays used these same ideas to mask agendas and to create illusions that deceive and misrepresent, for marketing purposes. The Father Of Spin Bernays dominated the PR industry until the 1940s, and was a significant force for another 40 years after that. (Tye) During all that time, Bernays took on hundreds of diverse assignments to create a public perception about some idea or product. A few examples: As a neophyte with the Committee on Public Information, one of Bernays' first assignments was to help sell the First World War to the American public with the idea to Make the World Safe for Democracy. (Ewen) A few years later, Bernays set up a stunt to popularize the notion of women smoking cigarettes. In organizing the 1929 Easter Parade in New York City, Bernays showed himself as a force to be reckoned with. He organized the Torches of Liberty Brigade in which suffragettes marched in the parade smoking cigarettes as a mark of women's liberation. Such publicity followed from that one event that from then on women have felt secure about destroying their own lungs in public, the same way that men have always done. Bernays popularized the idea of bacon for breakfast. Not one to turn down a challenge, he set up the advertising format along with the AMA that lasted for nearly 50 years proving that cigarettes are beneficial to health. Just look at ads in issues of Life or Time from the 40s and 50s. Smoke And Mirrors Bernay's job was to reframe an issue; to create a desired image that would put a particular product

While this writer was among the first to question the ownership, motives and associations of the only U.S. manufacturer of the anthrax vaccine (Bioport), credit must be given to other researchers who have broadened the field of inquiry. Two in particular have opened up the proverbial can of worms involved in the scientific progress of biological weapons. Dr. Leonard Horowitz and Patricia Doyle, Ph.D. have zeroed in on a little publicized but powerful entity named Battelle Memorial Institute (BMI). This relatively unknown (by the public) organization has its tentacles spread into virtually every field of current scientific endeavor, in partnership with the federal and state governments and the military. But we are getting ahead of ourselves. First some background. What are GOCO s? At the end of the Second World War, the federal government found itself with several secret laboratories involved mainly in nuclear, chemical and biological weapons research and development. A decision was made to utilize the labs, not only for further weapons research, but also for peaceful inventions and discoveries benefiting private industry and commerce. A method was devised to keep the labs under government ownership but allow maximum participation of private interests. Thus GOCOs (Government owned contractor operated) facilities were born. This procedure provides a means to fund projects with taxpayers dollars and transfers of the resulting technology to selected private interests. Various government agencies and the military (Department of Defense) select organizations (through a Byzantine bidding process) to control and operate the government owned facilities. There are currently at least nineteen government owned national laboratories (that we know of) being operated by private contractors. All but one of the contractors is a non-profit organization or combination of two or more. The one exception is the Sandia lab, which devolved from the WWII atomic bomb Manhattan Project. The first contractor operator, invited by President Harry Truman, was ATT. It managed the lab until October, 1993 in the first year of the Clinton Administration, when the contract was awarded to Martin Marietta Corp. in Georgia (now Lockheed Martin). Undoubtedly the influence of Mr. Defense Georgia Senator Sam Nunn had something to do with that award. (Republican Congressman Newt Gingrich of Georgia would not become Speaker of the House until two years later.) However, the government got a real deal since Lockheed/Martin Marietta has not charged a fee for its management of the lab. (Cui bono?) Back to BMI (Battelle Memorial Institute) with headquarters in Columbus, Ohio. The institute was the brainchild of industrialist Gordon Battelle whose multi-millionaire father (John Battelle) had established a coal and steel empire in that state. A bequest of one million dollars in Gordons will set up the institute in 1923. Named to the first board of directors was then President of the United States, Warren G. Harding, a close associate of Gordons father John. Harding also died later that year. The mission of the Institute, described in the trust is the encouragement of creative and research work and the making of discoveries and inventions. The trust also required that a share of the institutes net earnings (20%) be given to charitable institutions, needy enterprises or persons. In practice, the needy institutions seem to be other research organizations (some indirectly related to BMI). From its humble beginnings with one lab and 20 employees BMI has grown to encompass over 10,000 employees (including 7,500 scientists and engineers), six major technology centers and eight specialized facilities. It has offices in 71 U.S. cities and four in foreign countries including Russia and the Ukraine. BMI also has nine subsidiaries. The BMI trust was set up as a non-profit organization under the laws of the State of Ohio. However, according to BMIs associate general counsel in congressional testimony, BMI does not qualify as non-profit under IRS guidelines and is not tax exempt. (His testimony was given in an apparently successful request that BMI and other non-profit contract operators of government facilities be exempted from collection of civil damages for incidents with nuclear

He claimed he was part of The Committee For Sound Dollar and Sound Currency, Inc., which was spearheading a lobbying effort on behalf of the Gold Standard. However, his contradictory testimony and his inability to satisfactorily explain the large amounts of money which were deposited in several of his accounts compromised his credibility as a witness. At one point he said he was acting as purchasing agent of securities for Clark, but he never produced any evidence that he ever purchased any securities at all.13 It was also revealed that Clark had sent MacGuire on a trip to Germany, Italy, Spain, and France allegedly to study economic conditions. But records of the Committee for a Sound Dollar, where MacGuire filed his reports, indicated he was studying something more. In each of the countries he met with veterans in paramilitary groups. These were the types of groups that carried out coups and assassinations in Germany and Italy on behalf of Hitler and Mussolini. A similar group operated in France, the Croix de Feu, about which MacGuire wrote this glowing report: ... this French super organization is composed of about 500,000 men, and each of them was the leader of 10 others, and that is the kind of organization that we should have in the United States.14 Finally, Butlers story was corroborated by Commander James Van Zandt of the Veterans of Foreign Wars who claimed he was also approached to lead an insurrection army. It was also alleged by Butler that MacGuire had guaranteed arms on credit from the Remington Arms Company. Investigation by the committee revealed that the DuPonts had just bought the controlling interest in Remington Arms.15 The committee stated in its final report that it found credible evidence of a contemplated plot to overthrow the elected government with a military coup. Nevertheless, some alleged co-conspirators (supposedly revealed to Butler by MacGuire) such as General Hugh Johnson, (who was head of FDRs National Recovery Administration), former NY Governor Al Smith and General Douglas MacArthur were never subpoenaed.16 Media Treatment Of The Plot The media gave little or scant coverage to the committees final report. The Luce Press, which always led the charge in attacking Roosevelt and bolstering Fascism, ran a story called A Plot Without Plotters17 which sought to discredit Col. Butler. He was called a hothead. Other evidence of Butlers unsavory character, according to Luce, was that he had once given a speech in which he criticized Mussolini. His advocacy of the penniless Bonus Veteran Army was transformed into haranguing. The committee chairmen fared no better under Luces pen. They were accused of only seeking publicity (despite their having sought to suppress the most explosive parts of their discoveries). The New York Times showed an astonishing lack of interest. Reference to the alleged coup was relegated to two paragraphs at the bottom of page five.18 However, not every newspaper discounted the plot. The independent Philadelphia Record ran a cartoon showing big business pointing to a soapbox Communist as the threat, while General Butler marches in with evidence revealing armed Fascists hiding beneath a bankers coat.19 References to the alleged conspiracy disappeared from the press. Nevertheless, individual reporters did attempt to pursue the story. Paul Comley French of the Philadelphia Record and investigative journalist John Spivak went to the Justice Department. They asked why no one implicated was ever questioned; and since MacGuire had perjured himself, did they intend to file criminal prosecution? The Justice Department indicated it had no plans to carry matters any further at the moment. MacGuire, the only man who could have testified against the rest, died soon after of complications from pneumonia. His physician claimed that his death was partly due to the stress of the charges made by Butler. Grayson M.P. Murphy, the Morgan banker and treasurer of the American Liberty League, died soon after.20 Aftermath And Beyond Although the coup never materialized, the unrelenting propaganda attack against Roosevelt and the New Deal reforms continued, spearheaded by the American Liberty League. The League listed as its main contributors the DuPont family, representatives of the Morgan interests, Robert Sterling Clark, the Pew Family (Sun Oil), and Rockefeller

The issue was about an untested vaccine that nearly a half million U.S. service men and women were forced to take during and after the Gulf War. A laboratory owned and operated by the State of Michigan produced the vaccine. The vaccine was a much more potent version of one that had been used successfully for several decades to protect against cutaneous (skin) anthrax in veterinarians and others workers who came into close contact with animals and animal products. The vaccine has never been proved to be effective against inhalation (pulmonary) anthrax and has not been licensed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for that purpose. Despite overwhelming evidence that the vaccine has resulted in the partial or total disability of a large number of the inoculated troops and a few deaths, the government (Dept. of Defense and Center for Disease Control) continues to insist the vaccine is safe and effective. For decades, cultivation of anthrax as a military weapon has been ongoing. The major countries involved were the USSR (now Russia), The United States, the United Kingdom and South Africa. The South African program under the direction of Wouter Basson also developed anthrax for use in the assassination of individuals. In the U.S. the major research and development of weaponized anthrax was said to have been performed at the armys Fort Detrick installation. However, we have recently learned that effort received substantial support from Battelle Memorial Institute (BMI). (See part one for a detailed description of BMI.) At this point, the reader should be introduced to several individuals who have played important roles in the development of anthrax weapons and/or vaccines. Two of the individuals the government relies on heavily for expert advice are William C. Patrick and Ken Alibek. Patrick was the director of the operation at Fort Detrick and now has his own private consulting firm on defenses against chemical and biological weapons. He still has close ties to the Dept. of Defense (DOD), the intelligence community including the CIA and BMI. Patrick says he taught army (and BMI) scientists how to aerosolize (weaponize) anthrax powder at the armys facility at Dugway, Utah. Curiously, more than two years ago Patrick was commissioned by BMI to prepare a scenario where weaponized anthrax was delivered through the mail. Whether deliberately or not, Patricks report underestimated the concentration of the hypothesized anthrax spores by a factor of twenty to one. His report was based on a concentration of 50,000 billion spores per gram The U.S. weaponized anthrax, for which Patrick holds five secret patents, had a concentration of one trillion spores per gram. No other countrys program has reached higher than 500 billion per gram. Ken Alibek (the Americanized version of his Russian name) was deputy chief of the USSRs bio-weapon program. In 1992 he defected to the U.S. The CIA asked William Patrick to debrief Alibek who was then welcomed with open arms by the intelligence community and other government agencies. Alibek was an employee of BMI for several years before he was set up with his own consulting company as a subsidiary of the notorious Hadron Corp. (a thinly veiled front for the CIA and other government agencies). Another deputy chief of the Soviet program had defected three years earlier to the U.K. where he was ensconced at Porton Down. Porton Down is the U.Ks counterpart of Ft. Detrick in bio-weapons development and now vaccines. Then a consultant, he died suddenly and mysteriously (said to be from a stroke) three weeks after the first mailed anthrax last October. Another player is Dr. Robert Myers. Myers was the head scientist at the Michigan lab making the anthrax vaccine. When the lab was sold to a private company (Bioport) Myers became the chief scientist and part owner of Bioport. Myers is one of the prime movers in the armys mandatory anthrax vaccine inoculation program (AVIP) along with BMI who is said to be managing the program for DOD. Myers also has ties to South Africas anthrax weapons program. He was a friend of scientist Larry Ford who worked with South Africas Wouter Basson in developing assassination weapons using deadly germs. Myers was also an investor in Fords company (Biofem).

The daily newspaper based in Peshawar, Pakistan published an article titled Indian Drama, Israeli Script by Yusuf Ahmed in which they allege that the Indian ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) staged the terrorist attack and blamed Muslims in order to win the upcoming elections in February of this year. According to the article, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) manipulates Hindu fear of Muslims to stay in power in a similar way that some politicians in the US southwest manipulate fear of La Raza by some white voters. The Frontier Post quoted verbatim from La Voz de Aztlan's report on the intrusion into the Mexican Congress, with explosives, by two Israelis, one a Colonel in the MOSSAD. The article at: http://www.frontierpost.com.pk/articles.asp?id=5date1=1/7/2002 mentions the conjecture by La Voz de Aztlan that the attempted terrorist attack on the Mexican San Lazaro Legislative Palace may have been planned in order to blame Muslims and to bring in Mexico and its PEMEX oil supplies into the USA's war coalition against Islam. It appears that the old Zionist trick of committing terrorist attacks and than blaming their enemies of committing them, in order to further their political and economic aims, may now be a prevalent strategy of other regimes around the world. There is today a coalition of U.S. groups demanding that the U.S. Congress form a congressional committee to investigate numerous unexplained anomalies concerning the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. In addition there is an effort to Petition the U.S. Senate to Investigate Oddities Involving 9/11 Terrorist Attacks at: http://www.petitiononline.com/11601TFS/petition.html We live in extremely dangerous times where even 15 year old kids are turning into terrorists as demonstrated by Charles Bishop in Tampa, Florida.

Let us never tolerate outrageous conspiracy theories concerning the attacks of September the 11th, malicious lies that attempt to shift the blame away from the terrorists themselves, away from the guilty. GW Bush speaking before the UN GeGeneral Assembly 11/10/2001 When President Bush spoke of outrageous conspiracy theories he was for the first time acknowledging something of great significance. There are informed viewpoints completely missing from the propaganda war being relentlessly waged on Americans about 9/11 and its aftermath, viewpoints which are as opposite from the official story as it is possible to get. The Bush administrations' official story has three basic premises. To briefly summarize, the first is that Islamic terrorists based in Afghanistan who hate American freedom plotted and executed an attack on America - an attack which the U.S. government had no prior knowledge of nor any connection to. The second premise is that in order to wage and win a war on terrorism we must invade Afghanistan and every other nation harboring, funding or otherwise supporting terrorists and that a simultaneous suspension of domestic civil liberties is necessary for internal security. The third basic premise is that our government is all good while theirs is the very personification of evil, the evil-doers as President Bush likes to call them. The conspiracy theories Bush is referring to similarly have three basic premises and many divergent subsets. The first is that the attack was known about (and possibly, planned) by various elements of the U.S. government before 9/11 and was allowed to take place in order to bring about certain conditions, including the suspension of our guaranteed civil liberties. The second premise is that even if bin Laden and the al Queda network based in Afghanistan were immediately responsible for the attack that those supporting, funding and protecting them are not for the most part based in Afghanistan but are in fact closely connected to the Bush administration and to the allies President Bush has taken such efforts to rally to our side. The third premise is that a U.S. built oil pipeline through Afghanistan which has been in the planning stages for more than a decade is the real goal of the war and that a U.S. invasion of Afghanistan was in the works long before September 11th. [Click Here for earlier Essay associated with this topic.]. http://baltech.org/lederman/9-11-unpopular.html What makes these alternative viewpoints, conspiracy theories? It certainly isn't a lack of evidence. In the American criminal justice system there are three basic kinds of evidence; direct, circumstantial and exculpatory. Direct evidence of a crime might include a confession, fingerprints, DNA samples, credible witnesses or a surveillance tape proving guilt beyond any reasonable doubt. Circumstantial evidence is anything that lends credence to a defendant being guilty but in itself is not sufficient to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Exculpatory evidence on the other hand disproves a defendants' guilt or contradicts other evidence proving their guilt. In a recent NYC case involving exculpatory evidence, a homeless man charged with a vicious sidewalk assault on a tourist was found to be on a store surveillance tape recorded at the same time the assault took place. In the American system of criminal law prosecutors are required to share all exculpatory evidence with the defense. The official story as told by the Bush administration and the U.S. corporate media is constructed of evidence the government frankly admits would not be admissible in any court of law. If anything, the Bush administrations' version of events is itself a very weakly constructed conspiracy theory challenged at every turn by an enormous amount of exculpatory evidence, much of it from

America, I wrote, Stands astride the world, a global Gulliver lording it over the Lilliputians. But at the apogee of its power, the US is subject to the irony of world hegemony increased vulnerability. SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES Little did I know how vulnerable. Like most Americans, I never imagined that, less than a year later, we would all be staring in disbelief at the smoking ruins of the Pentagon and a good part of downtown Manhattan. But I knew something was amiss: In the coming year, I predicted, the profiteers of empire will be especially busy selling the whole panoply of 'good works' the US is performing overseas, especially in the Middle East, where we are ostensibly fighting another bogey of the modern world, 'terrorism.' Whether the American people are buying it is another question. OVER THE HORIZON Well, if they weren't buying it before, now they certainly are and with a vengeance. As the US goes rampaging through Central Asia in search of Osama bin Laden and his Terrorist International, the War Party has been given a blank check and they're diddling over how much to make it out for. But you didn't have to be a certified seer, a Nostradamus or a Jean Dixon, to see what was coming over the horizon. Reiterating the Clintonian record a new military intervention every few months I wrote: These days, the brazen belligerence of the US goes way beyond arrogance and all the way to hubris, the old Greek conception of a pride so overweening that it literally begs to be toppled, like Icarus felled for daring to approach the sun. ICARUS UNREPENTANT Yet Icarus hasn't learned his lesson. Still reaching for that bright orb, he doesn't realize he's been blinded. Lashing out, he stumbles about in the darkness, bellowing like a wounded giant, and wreaking devastation across the globe. Already the ripple effect caused by the US military campaign has caused disruption throughout the region, with India moving quickly to destabilize Pakistan. The nutball Hindu nationalists who hold sway in New Delhi have recently acquired a cache of new weapons from Israel and don't think they won't use them. http://www.warroom.com/oppressindia.htm A WARNING India and Israel have a lot in common: not only a mutual hatred of Islam, but also an expressed willingness to use nuclear weapons. It was not for nothing, after all, that Israel recently admitted what it has always officially denied (even though everyone knew the story of Mordecai Vanunu): yes, they have nukes. But why admit this now, at the height of the crisis, unless it is meant as a warning that they won't hesitate to use them? THE BRAHMIN BOMB On the other side of the Middle East, New Delhi's Brahmins are wielding the nuclear stick more openly, explicitly threatening Pakistan with the unthinkable. At issue is the Vale of Kashmir, a section of Central Asia so mountainous and inaccessible that it makes the terrain of Afghanistan look like a golf course. India has always claimed it, in spite of its overwhelmingly Muslim population. If India allowed a real national referendum, Kashmir would doubtless go with Pakistan, but New Delhi's Great Power conceit would never permit that, and so the region has been in a constant state of war since the partition of India and Pakistan more than 50 years ago. http://www.ummah.org.uk/kashmir IMPERIAL INDIA From this lair of Islamic terrorism, various Islamic tribes and groups have launched attacks on India proper, and the Brahmins, asserting their regional hegemony, have decided to follow the good example of the United States in pursuing terrorism to its source.

Source: New York Post http://www.nypost.com/ FLIGHT 587 WITNESSES BLAST FEDS http://www.nypost.com/news/regionalnews/38354.htm By JOHN LEHMANN January 7, 2002 -- New Yorkers who believe they saw American Airlines Flight 587 explode in flames before its tail sheared off have accused crash investigators of ignoring their eyewitness accounts and prematurely ruling out a terrorist attack. Six witnesses, including a recently retired police lieutenant, an FDNY deputy chief and a former firefighter, have written to the National Transportation Safety Board, demanding they be called to testify at a public hearing. Tom Lynch, 59, a retired firefighter, said he had also spoken to 18 other people who saw the Airbus A300 flying on fire before it crashed into houses in Belle Harbor, Queens, on Nov. 12, killing 265 people. The NTSB is not publicly acknowledging the many eyewitness accounts of the in-flight fire or explosion, many from people who are adamant that the fire occurred before any tail or engine breakups, he told The Post. Lynch, who organized the letter, said he was standing on Rockaway Beach Boulevard when he saw a bright orange ball of flame streaming from the right side of the plane. Two or three seconds later, he said, he saw a larger eruption of flames consuming the entire right side of the plane's fuselage. There were no falling parts until the second explosion of flames - I'll go to my grave with that, he said. The witnesses said they were surprised NTSB Chairwoman Marion Blakey was able to say, only hours after the crash, that all indications pointed to an accident, rather than a terrorist attack. How could that statement be made while the flight-data recorder had not been recovered, the crash-investigation team had not yet showed up and initial eyewitness reports included many accounts of one or two explosions in flight? Lynch said. Another witness not involved with Lynch's group, Michael Benjamin, said he saw a huge orange fire engulfing the front third of the plane's right side whil e he was driving along Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn with his wife and two children. Benjamin, who works for the Oversight, Analysis and Investigations Committee of the state Assembly, said he had attempted to contact the NTSB but had not received a return call. Preliminary reports written by the NTSB have not mentioned in-flight explosions, but have focused on air turbulence, the composite materials used to build the jet's vertical tail, and sudden rudder movements. An NTSB spokesman said more than 200 eyewitness accounts had been recorded and were being considered as part of the investigation.

FWP On Tue, 1 Jan 2002, Greg Miller wrote: The Arrival Of Orwellian America By Rick Gee 1-1-2 In George Orwell's classic novel 1984, Oceania is in a state of perpetual war with Eurasia. Even though the Big Brother state of Oceania insists that such has always been the case, the protagonist, Winston Smith, remembers that the states were in fact at one time aligned. The same is true of the United States and Osama bin Laden/Afghanistan. The CIA provided funding and arms to bin Laden during the decade-long proxy war with the Soviet Union. Now bin Laden, The Evil One, has become the Goldstein character, who is held up as the Enemy of the People. And our rulers readily admit that the War on Terrorism will last indefinitely. To keep the masses in line and to suppress opposition, Oceania developed a language called Newspeak, which actually reduced the number and variety of words in use to render dissenting thought obsolete. Closely related to Newspeak is doublethink, in which someone is conditioned to either say the opposite of what he thinks or think the opposite of what is true. The U.S. government has engaged in such obfuscations with the passage of the Uniting and Strengthening America Act by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism. Yes, it's the USA PATRIOT Act. Clearly the name of the bill was concocted to fit the acronym. The purpose of this acronym is two-fold. One, it makes it politically dangerous for politicians to vote against it (He voted against the Patriot Act? Who can we nominate to run opposite this traitor in the next election?). Two, it stifles opposition among the American people. You're either with us, or you're with the terrorists. Since we are all in favor of stopping acts of terrorism, we should all be in favor of this legislation, right? But this legislation - which was not available for members of Congress to read before they had to vote on it - will do nothing to prevent future terrorism and much to increase the power of government over its subjects. The legislation, among other things: *Allows law enforcement agencies to search homes and offices without notifying the owner for days or weeks after, not only in terrorism cases, but in all cases - the so-called sneak and peek authority * *Allows government agents to collect undefined new information about Web browsing and e-mail * *Overrides existing state and federal privacy laws, allowing the FBI to compel disclosure of any kind of records upon the mere claim that they are connected with an intelligence investigation If you believe that the government could never use these unconstitutional powers against you because you're not a Middle Eastern raghead, you are unfamiliar with history. J. Edgar Hoover's FBI became a de facto domestic political police force. Franklin Delano Roosevelt used the FBI to spy on his political enemies, especially antiwar groups. The PATRIOT Act does not restrict its provisions to terrorism investigations. In fact, they may be used against anyone, whether or not he is a suspect related to terrorism. On the other hand, the act broadens the definition of terrorism to an offense that is calculated to influence or affect the conduct of government by intimidation or coercion; or to retaliate against government conduct. While the PATRIOT Act ostensibly protects Americans against terrorism, in reality it protects the government against its own people. With this new expanded, nebulous definition of terrorism now the law of the land, will I be considered

President George W. Bush has ordered the CIA and his senior military commanders to draw up detailed plans for a military operation that could begin within months. The plan, opposed by Tony Blair and other European Union leaders, threatens to blow apart the increasingly shaky international consensus behind the US-led 'war on terrorism'. It envisages a combined operation with US bombers targeting key military installations while US forces assist opposition groups in the North and South of the country in a stage-managed uprising. One version of the plan would have US forces fighting on the ground. Despite US suspicions of Iraqi involvement in the 11 September attacks, the trigger for any attack, sources say, would be the anticipated refusal of Iraq to resubmit to inspections for weapons of mass destruction under the United Nations sanctions imposed after the Gulf war. According to the sources, the planning is being undertaken under the auspices of a the US Central Command at McDill air force base in Tampa, Florida, commanded by General Tommy Franks, who is leading the war against Afghanistan. Another key player is understood to be former CIA director James Woolsey. Sources say Woolsey was sent to London by the hawkish Deputy Defence Secretary, Paul Wolfowitz, soon after 11 September to ask Iraqi opposition groups if they would participate in an uprising if there was US military support. The New York Times yesterday quoted a senior administration official who admitted that Bush's aides were looking at options that involved strengthening groups that opposed Saddam. Richard Armitage, the Deputy Secretary of State, said that action against Iraq was not imminent, but would come at a 'place and time of our choosing'. Washington has been told by its allies that evidence it has presented of an Iraqi link to 11 September is at best circumstantial. However, US proponents of extending the war believe they can make the case for hitting Saddam's regime over its plan to produce weapons of mass destruction. A European diplomat said last week: 'In the past week the Americans have shut up about Iraqi links to 11 September and have been talking a lot more about their weapons programme.' The US is believed to be planning to exploit existing UN resolutions on Iraqi weapons programmes to set the action off. Under the pre-existing 'red lines' for military action against Iraq - set down by Washington and London after the Gulf War - evidence of any credible threat from weapons of mass destruction would be regarded as sufficient to launch military strikes along the lines of Operation Desert Fox in 1998, when allied planes made large-scale strikes against suspected Iraqi weapons complexes. Opposition by Blair and French President Jacques Chirac may not be enough to dissuade the Americans. One European military source who recently returned from General Franks's headquarters in Florida said: 'The Americans are walking on water. They think they can do anything at the moment and there is bloody nothing Tony [Blair] can do about it.' Bush is said to have issued instructions about the proposals, which are now at a detailed stage, to his Defence Secretary, Donald Rumsfeld, three weeks ago. But Pentagon sources say that a plan for attacking Iraq was developed by the time Bush's order was sent to the Pentagon, drawn up by Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, chairman of the joint chiefs General Richard Myers, and Franks. The plan is to work with a combination of three political forces: Kurdish rebels in the north of Iraq, radical Sunni Muslim groups in and around Baghdad, and, most controversially, the Shia opposition in the south. The most adventurous ingredient in the anti-Iraqi proposal is the use of US ground troops, Pentagon sources say. 'Significant numbers' of ground troops could also be called on in the early stages of any rebellion to guard oil fields around the Shia port of Basra in southern Iraq.

[1] Investigators on Tuesday found the flight data recorder, reports the Las Vegas Sun on Nov. 13th. [2] Ibarguen's report issued Monday, Nov. 12 states that authorities have found the flight data recorder. The Las Vegas Sun states that the flight data recorder was found on Tuesday, Nov. 13. -- FBI: No Indication -- A Fox News report notes that Bush administration officials said the FBI believed an explosion occurred aboard the jet... [3] There appeared to have been an explosion in the air. Debris was flying all over the place before the plane crashed to the ground, stated one witness. [4] Another witness, a firefighter, is quoted as saying, Whatever happened, it happened in the air. The plane was already in pieces before it hit the ground. [5] By about noon on Nov. 12, the FBI was saying there was no indication [of] a terror attack or that there was an explosion on board. [6] Retired firefighter Tom Lynch is quoted as saying, It definitely exploded in the sky. [7] Eyewitness Antonio Villela is quoted as saying, First I heard a big explosion. Then I saw flames come out from behind the plane. And then a whole wing with the engine fell off. [8] -- GE: CF6-80C2 Phenomenally Reliable -- The Flight 587 Airbus had two CF6-80C2 engines, manufactured by General Electric Co. GE believes the CF6-80C2 engines are phenomenally reliable. [9] In March of this year, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) directed airlines to inspect the engines for possible cracks in turbine rotor discs. [10] But General Electric was not aware of any recent operational problems with its CF6-80C2 engine. [11] The CF6-80C2 engine is used on more than one-thousand other aircraft, worldwide, including Air Force One, the plane which carries the U.S. president. [12] These planes have not been grounded. -- Birds and Jamaica Bay -- An un-named source close to the investigation says the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is checking to see whether ingested birds caused the CF6-80C2 engines to fail. The report, in the Las Vegas Sun, uses the plural, engines, suggesting a sudden failure by both of Flight 587's engines. [13] Kennedy (JFK) Airport, from which the doomed flight originated, runs along Jamaica Bay. New York governor George Pataki at first said the pilot dumped fuel in Jamaica Bay before the plane went down. [14] Pataki later backed away from his dumped fuel assertions. According to Conspiracy Nation source Rhea Fortean (pseudonym), John Gibson on Fox News wonders if something goes on at JFK airport. Gibson reportedly is puzzled that previous crashes of TWA Flight 800, EgyptAir, SwissAir and now Flight 587 all originated at JFK Airport. -- Market Saved -- The market is going down with the plane. We still don't know if it is an accident or an attack, worried a French stock market trader. [15] Later that day, Nov. 12th, the NTSB said all available information indicated the crash was accidental. [16] Stocks and the dollar fell on news of the crash but recovered as the NTSB pointed to an accident. [17] --- Notes --- [1] Ibarguen, Diego.

It was after the explosion, eyewitness Tom Lynch, a retired firefighter, told the New York Post. I'm telling you, the tail was there until the second explosion. No tail fell off, not before the explosion. I swear to that, Lynch told the paper's Steve Dunleavy. The eyewitness said there was absolutely no doubt about what he saw. I had my head up taking in that beautiful, clear day and was staring straight at the plane. It made a bank turn and suddenly there was an explosion, orange and black, on the right -hand side of the fuselage. It was a small explosion, about half the size of a car. He continued: The plane kept on going straight for about two or three seconds as if nothing had happened, then 'vwoof' - the second, big explosion on the right wing, orange and black. It was only then that the plane fell apart. It was after the explosion and I'm telling you, the tail was there until the second explosion. Lynch, who lives near the Belle Harbor, N.Y. crash site, said he knew thirteen others who also saw the explosion and/or fire. One, retired police lieutenant Jim Conrad, told Dunleavy: I saw exactly what Tom saw. I was near a stop light at the Marine Parkway Bridge. First, the small explosion. The plane kept on going, tail intact, then the big explosion and the plane nose-dived. The first thing I said was: The bastards did it again.' Lynch said he's tried to contact the FBI and the NTSB but they weren't interested in his story. Ditto Sens. Chuck Schumer, Hillary Clinton, and his congressional representative Anthony Weiner, who also gave him the brush off. I got no response from anyone, he said. Last week NewsMax.com asked New York State's newly appointed public security czar James Kallstrom why a traffic surveillance video that reportedly captured Flt. 587's mid-air break up has not been publicly released. I have not seen the tape. I heard some mention of it. But I've not seen the tape and I really have no knowledge of it, Kallstrom said. Why it hasn't been released, I suspect, is because the investigation is ongoing. But I don't know the answer to that.

ERIC MARGOLIS, TORONTO SUN - When Pakistan ditched its ally, the Taliban, in September, and sided with the U.S., Islamabad and Washington fully expected to implant a pro-American regime in Kabul and open the way for the Pak-American pipeline. But this was not to be. In a dazzling coup, Russian President Vladimir Putin stole a march on the Bush administration, which was so busy trying to tear apart Afghanistan to find bin Laden it failed to notice the Russians were taking over half the country. The wily Russians achieved this victory through their proxy Afghan force, the Northern Alliance. Moscow, which has sustained the Alliance since 1990, re-armed it after Sept. 11 with new tanks, armored vehicles, artillery, helicopters and trucks. The Alliance's two military leaders, Gen. Rashid Dostam and Gen. Muhammed Fahim, were stalwarts of the old Communist regime with close links to the KGB. Putin put the chief of the Russian general staff, Viktor Kvashnin, and the deputy director of the KGB, in charge of the Alliance. During the Balkan fighting in 1999, the hard-charging Kvashnin outfoxed the U.S. by seizing Pristina's airfield, thus assuring a permanent Russian role in Kosovo. Now, he's done it again. To the fury of Washington and Islamabad, Kvashnin rushed the Northern Alliance into Kabul, in direct contravention of Bush's dictates . . . The Russians have regained influence over Afghanistan, revenged their defeat by the U.S. in the 1980s' war, and neatly checkmated the Bush administration which, for all its high-tech military power, understood little about Afghanistan. America's ouster of the Taliban regime meant Pakistan lost its former influence over Afghanistan and is now cut off from Central Asia's resources. So long as the Alliance holds power, the U.S. is equally denied access to the much coveted Caspian Basin. Russia has regained control of the best potential pipeline routes. The new Silk Road will become a Russian energy superhighway. By charging like an enraged bull into the South Asian china shop, the U.S. handed a stunning geopolitical victory to the Russians and severely damaged its own great power ambitions. Moscow is now free to continue plans to dominate South and Central Asia in concert with its strategic allies, India and Iran. The Bush administration does not appear to understand its enormous blunder, and keeps insisting the Russians are now our friends. http://www.canoe.ca/Columnists/margolis. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U.

Edward Griffin © 2001 by G. Edward Griffin Within minutes after the terrorist attack against the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, my phone began to ring and emails started pouring in asking what was the meaning of it all. I was flattered that anyone thought I would know the answer to that question; but, in truth, I knew little more than what was being shown on television. It was impossible to have a reasoned response until the shock wore off and the facts could be assembled. The concepts I would like to share with you today were set to paper three days after that event. I printed about a dozen copies and gave them to family and friends. Since then I have added historical data, but the concepts and the message remain unchanged. Many of the predictions I made have already come to pass; but any pride I might have in being right is far offset by the grim substance of those predictions. After completing The Creature from Jekyll Island, I felt that I still had one more book to write and that it would be called The Freedom Manifesto. I also knew that I would need a dramatic issue in the first chapter to capture attention. Well, the terrorist attack on September 11 was certainly that - and more. I told those on my email list that I would send them my expanded report on terrorism, but then I became bogged down in structuring and gathering material for the book. By that time, the report had become huge and had to be divided into chapters. All of that took about four weeks. So, what started out to be a four-page report on terrorism metamorphosed into Chapter One of The Freedom Manifesto. At first, it was my intent to keep the material up to date with late-breaking events; but then it occurred to me that it might have more value in its original form than if it were continually updated. Writing about news events after they happen is not difficult, but writing about them before they happen is another matter. So, I decided to let the overview stand exactly as conceptualized on Friday, September 14, 2001. This is that report. * KNOW THE ENEMY In the year 500 b.c., a Chinese general and philosopher by the name of Sun Tzu wrote a treatise called The Art of War. It has been translated into just about every language in the world and has become a classic of military and political strategy. In it, Sun Tzu said: If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.[1] It is now three days after the attack, and I am haunted by the words of Sun Tzu. America has declared war, but her leaders are not even sure who the enemy is. Is it a man called Osama bin Laden? Is it Afghanistan, the nation that shelters him? Is it the Taliban which rules Afghanistan? Is it a terrorist group called al-Qaida? Is it Muslim Extremism? We commit to war but do not know the enemy. The meaning of this event is far more complicated than the surface facts would indicate. On the surface, we have a group of people in the Middle East who hate America and have pledged themselves to inflict severe punishment on her, even at the sacrifice of their own lives. If that is as far as we care to look, then the meaning is simple. It is them against us; we are at war; they are the bad guys; we are the good guys; and we must destroy the enemy. That is the meaning that was given to the American people by their leaders. President Bush summarized it well when he told the nation, Tuesday, that the attack was an act of cowardice and that America was the target because it was a beacon of freedom. If that is the correct meaning of the event, the logical consequences are that we must fight back; we must defend freedom; and we must not stop until the cowards are wiped off the face of the earth. That is the path of war, retaliation, and, of course, counter-retaliation. There is, however, a deeper understanding of this event, and it has to do with the maxim: actions have consequences. To come to that understanding, we must do the unthinkable in moments of crisis. We must ask questions. LOYALTY AND PATRIOTISM Asking questions is not popular with some people. When a nation is at war, there is a tendency for its citizens to rally behind their leaders without questioning the wisdom of their actions. For them, the test of patriotism

If we were to take this article seriously, then we should still be ravaged with smallpox every year...also, the stuff about the 1840's is totally irrelevant...they used live vaccine back then. - Original Message - From: Samantha L. [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 23, 2001 2:06 AM Subject: Re: [CTRL] Case-Mortality Increases with Smallpox Vaccination -Caveat Lector- http://www.mercola.com/1999/sep/26/was_smallpox_vaccine_really_a_great_succe ss .htm Was Smallpox Vaccine Really A Great Success? By Roger Schlafly, PhD The use of vaccines to prevent and eradicate diseases like smallpox is supposedly one of the great successes of modern medicine. The Philippine Islands provide us with the most striking information on record that with much vaccination there is also much smallpox. Since the taking of the islands by the U.S., every attention had been paid to the perfecting of sanitation. But not content with this, their Public Health Service has seen to the thorough systematic vaccination of the population, adding thereto a considerable amount of serum inoculation. An American paper published in 1922 reported The Philippines have experienced three smallpox epidemics since the U.S. took over the Islands, the first in 1905-06, the second in 1907-08, and the third and worst of all in 1918-19. Before 1905 (with no general vaccination) the case-mortality was about 10%. In the 1905-06 epidemic, with vaccination well started, the case-mortality ranged from 25-50%. During the epidemic of 1918-19, with the Philippines supposedly almost universally immunized against smallpox by vaccination, the case-mortality averaged over 65%! These figures can be verified by reference to the Report of the Philippine Health Service. The statements are accompanied by, The mortality is hardly explainable. To anyone but a Philippine Medical Health Commissioner, it is plainly the result of vaccination. The highest percentage of mortality, 65.3%, was in Manila, the most thoroughly vaccinated place in the Islands; the lowest percentage of mortality, 11.4%, was in Mindanao, where, owing to religious prejudices of the inhabitants, vaccination had not been practiced as much as in most other parts of the Islands. Vaccination had been forced on Mindanao since 1918 in the face of this direct proof that their people were safer without it, and with the result of a smallpox mortality increase to above 25% in 1920. In view of the fact that sanitary engineers had probably done more in Manila to clean up the city and make it healthier than in any other part of the islands, vaccination actually brought on the smallpox epidemic in spite of the sanitary measures taken to promote health. It is certain that over ten million vaccinations for smallpox were performed in the Philippines from 1905 to 1917. In England and Wales, free vaccination was provided for smallpox in 1840, made compulsory in 1853, and in 1867 orders were given to prosecute evaders, therefore, few escaped vaccination. Deaths from smallpox in England and Wales during 1857-59 was recorded at 14,244; in 1863-65, 20,059; and 1870-72, 44,840. Between the 1st and 2nd epidemic, there was only a 7% increase in population with an increase of smallpox deaths by 40.8%. During the 2nd and 3rd epidemic a 9% increase of population with an increase of smallpox deaths of 123% with an ever-multiplying number of vaccinations! Deaths per year from cancer in England and Wales between 1857-72 also began to rapidly increase. Professor of the Athenian Faculty of Medicine, Leon Grigorski said We are ourselves creating the diseases, and we are heading toward general cancerization and mental defectives through encephalitis, by the use of vaccines. Upon limiting access to information the medical-industrial complex is able to maintain its authority mystique. Isolation is a well-known technique of brainwashing. Choices that challenge the position of the authority are limited and often times hidden. Because the intellect learns by comparison, when it is presented with only one point of view or other points of view are denigrated, it loses its capacity to discriminate and ultimately its capacity for fully rational thought.

[CTRL] U.S. Policy Towards Taliban Influenced by Oil
-Caveat Lector- .. From the New Paradigms Project [Not Necessarily Endorsed] Note: We store 100's of related New Paradigms Posts at: http://www.msen.com/~lloyd/oldprojects/recentmail.html From: James Daugherty [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: U.S. Policy Towards Taliban Influenced by Oil Date: Saturday, November 17, 2001 8:20 AM http://www.truthout.com/11.17A.Oil.Taliban.htm U.S. Policy Towards Taliban Influenced by Oil - Say Authors By Julio Godoy, Inter Press Service PARIS, Nov 15 (IPS) - Under the influence of U.S. oil companies, the government of George W. Bush initially blocked U.S. secret service investigations on terrorism, while it bargained with the Taliban the delivery of Osama bin Laden in exchange for political recognition and economic aid, two French intelligence analysts claim. In the book Bin Laden, la verite interdite (Bin Laden, the forbidden truth), that appeared in Paris on Wednesday, the authors, Jean-Charles Brisard and Guillaume Dasquie, reveal that the Federal Bureau of Investigation's deputy director John O'Neill resigned in July in protest over the obstruction. Brisard claim O'Neill told them that the main obstacles to investigate Islamic terrorism were U.S. oil corporate interests and the role played by Saudi Arabia in it. The two claim the U.S. government's main objective in Afghanistan was to consolidate the position of the Taliban regime to obtain access to the oil and gas reserves in Central Asia. They affirm that until August, the U.S. government saw the Taliban regime as a source of stability in Central Asia that would enable the construction of an oil pipeline across Central Asia, from the rich oilfields in Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan, through Afghanistan and Pakistan, to the Indian Ocean. Until now, says the book, the oil and gas reserves of Central Asia have been controlled by Russia. The Bush government wanted to change all that. But, confronted with Taliban's refusal to accept U.S. conditions, this rationale of energy security changed into a military one, the authors claim. At one moment during the negotiations, the U.S. representatives told the Taliban, 'either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold, or we bury you under a carpet of bombs', Brisard said in an interview in Paris. According to the book, the government of Bush began to negotiate with the Taliban immediately after coming into power in February. U.S. and Taliban diplomatic representatives met several times in Washington, Berlin and Islamabad. To polish their image in the United States, the Taliban even employed a U.S. expert onpublic relations, Laila Helms. The authors claim that Helms is also an expert in the works of U.S. secret services, for her uncle, Richard Helms, is a former director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The last meeting between U.S. and Taliban representatives took place in August, five weeks before the attacks on New York and Washington, the analysts maintain. On that occasion, Christina Rocca, in charge of Central Asian affairs for the U.S. government, met the Taliban ambassador to Pakistan in Islamabad. Brisard and Dasquie have long experience in intelligence analysis. Brisard was until the late 1990s director of economic analysis and strategy for Vivendi, a French company. He also worked for French secret services, and wrote for them in 1997 a report on the now famous Al Qaeda network, headed by bin Laden. Dasquie is an investigative journalist and publisher of Intelligence Online, a respected newsletter on diplomacy, economic analysis and strategy, available through the Internet. Brisard and Dasquie draw a portrait of closest aides to President Bush, linking them to oil business. Bush's family has a strong oil background. So are some of his top aides. From the U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, through the director of the National Security Council Condoleeza Rice, to the Ministers of Commerce and Energy, Donald Evans and Stanley Abraham, all have for long worked for U.S. oil companies. Cheney was until the end of last year president of Halliburton, a company that provides services for oil industry; Rice was between 1991 and 2000 manager for Chevron; Evans and Abraham worked for Tom Brown, another oil giant. Besides the secret negotiations held between Washington and Kabul and the importance of the oil industry, the book takes issue with the role played by Saudi Arabia in fostering Islamic fundamentalism, in the personality of bin Laden, and with the networks that the Saudi dissident built to finance his activities. Brisard and Dasquie contend the U.S. government's claim that it had been prosecuting bin Laden since 1998. Actually, Dasquie says, the first state to officially prosecute bin Laden was Libya, on the charges of terrorism. Bin Laden wanted settle in Libya in the early 1990s, but was hindered by the government of Muammar Qaddafi

Edgar Hoover === Here, in two postings, is overwhelming evidence that the crashes were remotely controlled, that the terrorists were on what they thought was a hijacking mission, but were themselves stung when control of the planes was taken over by remote controllers. Several articles by several people lend support to this aspect of the frame-up/cover-up explanation of the September 11 crashbombings and the conquest of Afganistan. The sabotage of New York-Cario flight EgyptAir flight 990, on 11-31, 1999. The hijackers, never suspecting a suicide mission, were stung, by (CIA?, Mossad?, renegade Mossad?, Mafia?) infiltrators posing as al Qu'eda field leaders on a mission under orders from bin Ladin. It was infiltrators of al Qu'eda who gave the long-waiting Qu'eda moles the right activation passwords and a set instructions to set a hijacking in motion -- but later, when the ordered hijacking was underway the infiltrator handlers on the ground (offshore?, in an AWAC?)took remote control of the planes, turning them into cruise missiles. (The infiltrators were most likely Mossad and not CIA because the the Israeli government has told us that the U.S. has no infiltrators in Central Asia and is dependent upon Mossad for all of its on-the-ground intelligence there. I am convinced that no one was knowingly on a WTC suicide mission. The 4 planes were all taken over by remote control on 9-11-10 after the hijackings were begun. The FBI has uncovered letters of the hijack suspects indicating that they were expecting to be arrested following the hijacking, that the hijacking was understood by the set-up hijackers to be a relatively harmless operation to draw attention to some cause. But the hijackers themselves were being misled as part of a grand counter-espionage sabotage frame-up sting. They were not aware that they were taking orders from Mossad agents and not Qu'eda (some even suggest that the bin Laden himself may be a double agent in his own organization, based on his prior CIA ties and the current economic ties of his family with both Presidents Bush. Crashbombing by Remote Control And this was not to be the first time that a passenger jet was crashed by remote sabotage -- EgyptAir 990 was crashed in a test for the WTC operation, on Halloween morning, 11/31/99. On November 31, two years ago, , EgyptAir flight 990, a giant Boeing 767 took off from New York's JFK Airport bound for Cairo Egypt with 100 Americans and 87 Egyptians aboard. The takeoff had been successful and routine, but at one half hour into the flight, at 1:48:30 at a moment when the pilot left the controls for a trip to the toilet and the co-pilot was left in the cockpit alone -- an English voice can be heard on the black box recorder saying control it (the co-pilot was Egyptian and had not been speaking English with the pilot that morning) -- when suddenly, one must conclude, control of the plane taken from him,i.e., the cockpit controls were bing overridden. -- After some seconds the co-pilot, reacting to his losse of control to a phantom controller, says, I'm trusting you Jehovah (or I'm in your hands, Jehovah) --Tawakkalt ala Allah.) The co-pilot then attempted to disengaged the auto-pilot to restore control. Control was not restored. The co-pilot again reacted with this prayer exclamation as the elevators dropped putting the plane into a dive. After sixteen seconds of this dive the Captain returned to the cockpit asking What happening? Whats happening? Now captain and co-pilot were presumably working to pull out of the dive, but the controls were not responding and now the throttles turned up to full forward -- at which point the co-pilot cut the fuel lines. Then by phantom control the right and left elevators each moved all the way in the opposite directions and the ailerons on both wings both went fully up.The pilot cried Get away in the engines! Shut the engines! To which the co-pilot replied, It's shut. The last words are those of the captain frantically instructing Pull! Let's pull! Let's pull! At this point something shut off the instrument recorders (or they were later erased). The American investigation said that the co-pilot committed suicide, with the Egypt AIr and the Egyptian government insisiting that that is an impossible interpretation of the audio message.

October 24, 2001 Are you less than satisfied with the official explanations about 9/11? Here are nine for the moment relatively unpopular but nevertheless compelling ideas to consider about the attack. Americans who tend to believe in any or all them are in the minority right now. Perhaps they won't be in the near future. 1. This new war is not a conflict between Islamic fundamentalism and American freedom. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Holy_War/message/16244#point1 2. The destruction of the WTC was anticipated, and might have been preventable. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Holy_War/message/16244#point2 3. The Rockefeller connection may be the key to unlocking an understanding of this entire issue. Why has their connection to the WTC been omitted from 99.999% of the media coverage about 9/11? http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Holy_War/message/16244#point3 4. Anthrax may not be getting sent to the media and to Congress by terrorists. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Holy_War/message/16244#point4 5. This conflict is about oil not terrorism, Israel or Islam. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Holy_War/message/16244#point5 6. Are we bombing the wrong country? http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Holy_War/message/16244#point6 7. Bush is not doing a good job of protecting America. It would be far more accurate to say he's doing a good job of destroying it. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Holy_War/message/16244#point7 8. There is an occult aspect to the attacks which cannot be ignored or attributed to coincidence. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Holy_War/message/16244#point8 9. NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani did not unify New York City, but has done everything in his power to destroy the electoral process and guarantee future social chaos. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Holy_War/message/16244#point9 Rather than attempt to provide a lengthy proof of each idea which would require a book-length report, here are one or more references from which you can learn more. Every one of these ideas has voluminous documentation which can be found in the mainstream media, on the net or in reputable books if one looks for it. Are these ideas true, are they connected and do they point to an even more sinister explanation for 9/11 than is popularly held? I'll let you be the judge, which is more than our newly popular leaders are willing to do. While to some it may seem unpatriotic to question the government's actions at this time of crisis let us remember that the original purpose of free speech was to enable Americans to ask exactly these kind of unpopular questions of our elected leaders. Real unity cannot be based on deceiving the American people. 1. This new war is not a conflict between Islamic fundamentalism and American freedom. According to President Bush, we are now at war with the evil-doers who hate our freedoms and way of life. Reasonable enough, but to be complete the list of evil-doers involved with terrorists would have to include most of the nations in our present coalition, the CIA, many of Americas' top corporations and some of its' wealthiest

Osama bin Laden with journalist Hamid Mir during the interview for a Pakistani newspaper In a previously undisclosed video which has been circulating for 14 days among his supporters, he confesses that history should be a witness that we are terrorists. Yes, we kill their innocents. In the footage, shot in the Afghan mountains at the end of October, a smiling bin Laden goes on to say that the World Trade Centre's twin towers were a legitimate target and the pilots who hijacked the planes were blessed by Allah. The killing of at least 4,537 people was justified, he claims, because they were not civilians but were working for the American system. Bin Laden also makes a direct personal threat against Tony Blair, the Prime Minister, for the first time, and warns nations such as Australia, Germany and Japan to stay out of the conflict. The video will form the centrepiece of Britain and America's new evidence against bin Laden, to be released this Wednesday. The footage, to which the Telegraph obtained access in the Middle East yesterday, was not made for public release via the al-Jazeera television network used by bin Laden for propaganda purposes in the past. It is believed to be intended as a rallying call to al-Qa'eda members. In the video, bin Laden says: The Twin Towers were legitimate targets, they were supporting US economic power. These events were great by all measurement. What was destroyed were not only the towers, but the towers of morale in that country. The hijackers were blessed by Allah to destroy America's economic and military landmarks. He freely admits to being behind the attacks: If avenging the killing of our people is terrorism then history should be a witness that we are terrorists. Yes, we kill their innocents and this is legal religiously and logically. In a contradictory section, however, bin Laden justifies killing the occupants of the Twin Towers because they were not civilians - Islam forbids the killing of innocent civilians even in a holy war. He says: The towers were supposed to be filled with supporters of the economical powers of the United States who are abusing the world. Those who talk about civilians should change their stand and reconsider their position. We are treating them like they treated us. Bin Laden goes on to justify his entire terror campaign. There are two types of terror, good and bad. What we are practising is good terror. We will not stop killing them and whoever supports them. He directly threatens the lives of President Bush and Mr Blair. Bush and Blair don't understand anything but the power of force. Every time they kill us, we kill them, so the balance of terror can be achieved. He also calls on all Muslims to join him. It is the duty of every Muslim to fight. Killing Jews is top priority. Bin Laden warns other nations to keep out of the conflict, implying that they could face terror attacks if they do not. In the video, he also claims responsibility for an unspecified terrorist outrage in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which he claims was sparked by secret messages in one of his videos. He admits for the first time using public pronouncements on video to whip up terrorism - a danger about which the British and American governments have warned broadcasters. It is significant that throughout the video he uses the personal pronouns I and we to claim responsibility for the attacks. In the past, he has spoken of the attackers only in the third person. Bin Laden has publicly issued four previous videos since September 11, always denying carrying out the atrocities. He now claims to have access to nuclear and chemical weapons. Bin Laden made the claims on Friday night during an interview with the English language Pakistani newspaper Dawn. He said: If America used chemical or nuclear weapons against us, then we may retort with chemical and nuclear weapons. We have the weapons as deterrent. Defence analysts dismissed these claims. They said that although bin Laden could have access to nuclear material through links with Pakistan or former Soviet republics, he was unlikely to have the technology to cause an explosion. A Foreign Office spokesman said: We know that he was looking for that capability. We believe he does not have it. Emergency powers

Vladimir Zhirinovsky claims the US carried out the attacks to maintain world domination. He made the remarks at a Nato parliamentary conference in Ottawa, Canada. Zhirinovsky, a former Russian presidential candidate, is known for his inflammatory statements. The United States is responsible. All the terror has been organised by the United States. Osama (bin Laden) had nothing to do with it, he said. Speaking through an interpreter, he added: The United States, in order to consolidate its efforts and to produce a coalition, needed to have some sort of provocation in order to invoke Article 5 of the Nato treaty. It is a new political technology to keep domination in the world. Zhirinovsky says the war against terrorism is phoney and has been triggered by an unstable US dollar, oil prices and a military industrial complex that needs an enemy. In the 20th century, there were some symbols to fight against, like fascism and communism, he said. They don't exist any more. Now they have found such a symbol, which is terrorism, which has no borders, which has no time limits. He believes the Americans could capture bin Laden if they wanted to, reports the Winnipeg Sun. They got what they wanted. They consolidated the international community, the Nato alliance. They've got political and financial dividends from the situation, he said.

Date: Saturday, November 10, 2001 1:06 AM The following testimony by an oil and gas corporation executive (of Union Oil of California) to the Subcommittee on Asia and the Pacific of the US House of Representatives' Committee on International Relations on 12 February 1998 throws much light on the strategic importance of Afghanistan to the Western capitalist powers and goes a long way to explain why they have gone to war there. Mr. Chairman, I am John Maresca, Vice President, International Relations, of Unocal Corporation. Unocal is one of the world's leading energy resource and project development companies. Our activities are focused on three major regions Asia, Latin America and the US Gulf of Mexico. In Asia and the US Gulf of Mexico, we are a major oil and gas producer. I appreciate your invitation to speak here today. I believe these hearings are important and timely, and I congratulate you for focusing on Central Asia oil and gas reserves and the role they play in shaping US policy. Today we would like to focus on three issues concerning this region, its resources and US policy: · The need for multiple pipeline routes for Central Asian oil and gas. · The need for US support for international and regional efforts to achieve balanced and lasting political settlements within Russia, other newly independent states and in Afghanistan. · The need for structured assistance to encourage economic reforms and the development of appropriate investment climates in the region. In this regard, we specifically support repeal or removal of Section 907 of the Freedom Support Act. For more than 2,000 years, Central Asia has been a meeting ground between Europe and Asia, the site of ancient east-west trade routes collectively called the Silk Road and, at various points in history, a cradle of scholarship, culture and power. It is also a region of truly enormous natural resources, which are revitalizing cross-border trade, creating positive political interaction and stimulating regional cooperation. These resources have the potential to recharge the economies of neighboring countries and put entire regions on the road to prosperity. About 100 years ago, the international oil industry was born in the Caspian/Central Asian region with the discovery of oil. In the intervening years, under Soviet rule, the existence of the region's oil and gas resources was generally known, but only partially or poorly developed. As we near the end of the 20th century, history brings us full circle. With political barriers falling, Central Asia and the Caspian are once again attracting people from around the globe who are seeking ways to develop and deliver its bountiful energy resources to the markets of the world. The Caspian region contains tremendous untapped hydrocarbon reserves, much of them located in the Caspian Sea basin itself. Proven natural gas reserves within Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan equal more than 236 trillion cubic feet. The region's total oil reserves may reach more than 60 billion barrels of oil enough to service Europe's oil needs for 11 years. Some estimates are as high as 200 billion barrels. In 1995, the region was producing only 870,000 barrels per day (44 million tons per year [Mt/y]). By 2010, Western companies could increase production to about 4.5 million barrels a day (Mb/d) an increase of more than 500 percent in only 15 years. If this occurs, the region would represent about five percent of the world's total oil production, and almost 20 percent of oil produced among non-OPEC countries. One major problem has yet to be resolved: how to get the region's vast energy resources to the markets where they are needed. There are few, if any, other areas of the world where there can be such a dramatic increase in the supply of oil and gas to the world market. The solution seems simple: build a new Silk Road. Implementing this solution, however, is far from simple. The risks are high, but so are the rewards. Finding and Building Routes to World Markets One of the main problems is that Central Asia is isolated. The region is bounded on the north by the Arctic Circle, on the east and west by vast land distances, and on the south by a series of natural obstacles mountains and seas as well as political obstacles, such as conflict zones or sanctioned countries. This means that the area's natural resources are landlocked, both geographically and politically. Each of the countries in the Caucasus and Central Asia faces difficult political challenges. Some have unsettled wars or latent conflicts. Others
