[CTRL] Der kursk!

2000-10-01 Thread Donald Park
Title: Der kursk!



 At this moment, Russian prosecutors base their conclusions
 on four major facts:
 
 1. The is a history of collision between American and
 Russian submarines in the Barents Sea.
 
 2. Three US Navy submarines were present in the area of
 the Northern Fleet's exercise at the time of the Kursk accident.
 
 3. Immediately after the sinking of Kursk, one of the
 American submarines left the Barents Sea to dock in
 Norway for repairs. The submarine was followed by Russian
 reconnaissance planes and made an attempt to elude them.
 
 4. NATO officials refused an official request from the
 Russian government for an objective inspection of the
 external hull of USS Memphis.
 
 http://www.aeronautics.ru/nws002/kursk001.htm
Comrades:
1. First of all, Eye Have no idea what really happened to the Kursk. But I would say that the idea of super modern space age submarines with incredible Tom Clancy 'Red October' type capabilities and sonar, that if indeed these guys run into one another, then the public (ours and theirs) are being bilked out of billions of dollars. Weegee Boards cost a lot less. 
2. So what's new?
3. Again, so what?
4. These guys (Generals) have been thumbing their noise's at one another from the beginning. Putin and Clinton may be joined at the hip but their respective military leaders have been giving one another the finger (plucking the yew) for decades. No matter how high conspiricies run, there are always cross currents, ie, guys running their own programs. In other words, why should we confirm or disconfirm anything for the Russkies? 
 All out cooporation would be more suspecious than our (ok; not really mine or yours, but somebodies) military agreeing wholeheartedly to help them/
 Sig Heil!

Subject: Sudan: Oil for the Taking
Date: Thursday, September 14, 2000 7:48 PM

Part I
Baroness Cox and the Chinese Connection

The August 27th unsubstantiated story emanating from the London Telegraph, flashed 
around the internet at light speed.  It alleged that 700,000 Chinese troops had 
amassed in Sudan, ready to slaughter the alleged Christian rebels in Southern Sudan.   
Within 24 hours the story was debunked as preposterous.   But that does not prevent it 
from being repeated and even exaggerated further. Like most lies that kill, the China 
tale contains a grain of truth expanded to bizarre proportions.

What is the truth about war, oil and Christianity in Sudan?

The US press and thousands of church journals and newsletters pass along reports like 
the China tale as fact.  But under the light of logic and experience, both the story 
of 700,000 Chinese and the tale of a "Christian" army in southern Sudan are about 
equally false.  Both appear to be figments of a well-oiled and financed propaganda 
organization, started by House of Lords member Baroness Caroline Cox.  She has now 
tipped her hand that her quest, like that of the Chinese, is for the oil fields of 
Sudan.  It seems likely someone is financing her to this end.

Over a year ago, We Hold These Truths published MISSIONARIES, MERCENARIES, MISSILES 
AND MONEY which stated that we believe that the oil-starved State of Israel is behind 
Ms. Cox's campaign. (http://www.whtt.org/990927cc.htm)   In order to understand the 
fever for an international war against the government of Sudan and its coveted oil 
field, a brief look at Sudan's past is of value.

Historians are fond of saying, "History repeats itself." In fact, just as winning 
football teams repeat the plays that work, powerful men repeat in the present, those 
acts that brought success in the past. History is just the result of these repeated 
acts. Today, the third battle of Khartoum is on the drawing board.  The booty today is 
not the vast cotton plantations in the crescent of the White and Blue Nile rivers, as 
it was at the turn of the 20th century -- it is Sudan's oil!  But the "plays" of those 
that would steal oil from the Sudanese are much the same as the plays used a century 
ago.

Let us see how these men will do their best to make history repeat itself in Sudan.

It was at dawn in Sudan on a warm September morning in 1898 when the British, with a 
huge force of more than 20,000 men, 100 guns, and gunboats of the Royal navy. began 
their attack on the native army that guarded the open south front to the city of 
Khartoum. Youthful journalist Winston Churchill was there, and British war 
correspondent, G.W. Stevens, wrote, "It was not a battle, but an execution."

British General Kirchner suspended the battle for lunch. After eating lightly, he rode 
his white charger leisurely across the plain that had once held an opposing army. 
Mangled black bodies of about 10,000 men and numerous animals lay in heaps. None were 
alive by this time, as the General's policy was to take no Muslim prisoners, and the 
expert mounted Royal Lancers had shot or impaled the wounded and prisoners on the 
blades of their feared eight-foot lancers.

Most of the 50,000 Khalifa warriors who attempted to defend the 34,000 inhabitants of 
Khartoum were armed with spears and obsolete guns.  General Kirchner continued the 
"execution" of remaining tribes and caravans for several months.  In one documented 
and embarrassing case, he dragged a captured and chained black Muslim leader through 
the city behind a horse, to the horror of the English people back home.  England had 
once more colonized Sudan as a giant cotton farm.  The "Muslim Revolt" was over.

According to English Historian Alan Moorehead's, "The White Nile" the population of 
Sudan was reduced by 50%--to barely two million-- during the terrible years of British 
conquest and rule in the last-half of the 19th century.  Sudan was only target 
practice for the brutality of the conquest of the African Gold mines four years later, 
commonly known as the Boer War, only four years later.

English Army applied some of the brutality learned in Sudan to commandeer the world's 
greatest gold camps in South Africa.  The British applied similar tactics to the white 
Dutch farmers of the Veld. Its army captured and interned the wives and children of 
almost every Boer farmer who was not at home to protect them, and burned their farms 
to the ground.  By English records, more than half of the 25,000 Boers killed in the 
war were women and children deliberately starved and unprotected.

The British came to Sudan for cotton and sweet revenge.  Now another of their

-Caveat Lector-

The highly revered Internet legend, John Winston, will be online to answer
your questions, LIVE on Anomaous Radio on Mplayer-Europe.com Sunday
night at 8:30 pm PT 11:30 pm ET.

Go to the regular (not adult) cam room at Mplayer-Europe.com at the
appointed time and you can both hear and ask quesitons live of John
Winston. Yes I will have an online cam too. In the future, guests with a
webcam will have their live images online. This can get pretty fun...

Mplayer-Europe.com just added a new free adult cam chatroom, so if that
is not a good reason to join before the live interview tonight then I do not
know what is.  :-)

Now you know I am not kidding, but if for some reason the Mplayer-Europe
goes down again, or a certain K**k person who used my earlier name
changing the '1' to 'l' and then claiming that it was just a coincidence that it
appeared twice at the same time in the room when a certain 'k**k'
individual attempted to disrupt the previous interview with John Winston,
preventing you good people from asking questions, well then we will take
appropriate actions!

IOW, I will be booting anyone being obnixious like the certain individual(s)
before, but only after filing an online complaint so that Mplayer-Europe can
log the IP number of those trying to disrupt this discussion again.

I hope that all of you who search for the Truth will Join John Winston and I
for a stimulating open-ended discussion of the paranormal Sunday night at
8:30 pm PT / 11:30 pm ET on Anomalous Radio, Live! Just look for the

While we're on the subject of Bob's interesting postings, and how "if ya

winter which was REALLY interesting (if memory serves, Das Goat
also thanked him for posting such "classic Bucky").

an exerpt from: "Critical Path"
Legally Piggily, by R. Buckminster Fuller

-repost-

Meanwhile in history, we have millennia of people venturing forth on the
world's waters-developing the first rafts, which had to go where the
ocean currents took them; then the dugouts, with which they paddled or
catamaraned and sailed in preferred directions; and finally the
ribbed-and-planked ship, suggested to them by the stout spine and rib
cage of the whales, seals and humans-stoutly keeled and ribbed,
deep-bellied ships. With their large ships made possible by this type of
construction, sailors came to cross the great seas carrying enormous
cargoes-vastly greater cargoes than could be carried on the backs of
humans or animals. Ships could take the short across-the-bay route
instead of the around-the-bay mountain route.

The Phoenicians, Cretans, and the Mycenaeans, together, in fleets of
these big-ribbed and heavily planked ships, went to Troy and besieged
it. Up to this time the besiegers of Troy had come overland, and they
soon ran out of food. But the Troy-besieging Greeks and Cretans came to
Troy in ships, which they could send back for more supplies. This
terminally-turned-around voyaging back to the supply sources and return
to the line of battle was called their "line of supply." The new
line-of-supply masters-the Greeks-starved out the Trojans. The Trojans
thought they had enough food but had not reckoned on the people
besieging them having these large ships. The Trojan horse was the large
wooden ship-that did the task of horses-out of whose belly poured armed
troops.

At this time the power structure of world affairs shifts from control by
the city-state to the masters of the lines of supply. At this point in
the history of swiftly evolving, multibanked, oarand sail-driven
fighting ships, the world power-structure control shifts westward to
Italy. While historians place prime emphasis on the Roman legions as
establishing the power of the Roman Empire, it was in fact the
development of ships and the overseas line of supply upon which its
power was built-by transporting those legions and keeping them supplied.

Go to Italy, and you will see all the incredibly lovely valleys and
great caste/los commanding each of those valleys such as you saw in the
typical city-states, and you can see that none of those walls has ever
been breached. Also in Italy-in the northeastern corner-is Venice, the
headquarters of the water-people. The Phoenicians~phonetically the
Venetians-had their south Mediterranean headquarters in Carthage in
northern Africa. In their western Mediterranean and Atlantic venturings
the Phoenicians became the Veekings. The Phoenicians-venetiansin
their ships voyaged around the whole coast of Italy and sent in their
people to each caste, one by one. The Venetians had an unlimited line of
supply, and the people inside each costello did not. The people inside
were starved out. Thus, all of the regional masters of the people in
Italy hated the Venetians-Phoenicians... veekings who were able to do
this. There being as yet no Suez Canal, the new world power structure
centered in the ship mastery of the line of supply finally forcing the
Roman Empire to shift its headquarters to Constantinople some ten
centuries after the fall of Troy. The Roman emperor-pope's bodyguards
were the Veekings-Vikings, the water-peoples' most powerful frontier
fighters. The line of supply from Asia to Constantinople was partially
caravan-borne and partially water-borne via Sinkiang-Khyber
Pass-Afghanistan or via the Sea of Azov, the Caspian and the Black seas.
From Constantinople, the western Europe-bound traffic was rerouted from
overland to waterway routes. Because the Asia-to-Constantinople half of
the trading was more land-borne-via-caravans, whose routes were
dominated by the city-state-mastering Turks, Constantinople in due
course was taken over by the Turks who established the Byzantine Empire
in the Aegean Sea and Asia Minor.

Before leaving the subject of the great power-structure struggle for
control of the most important, greatest cargo-tonnage-transporting most
profitable, Asia-to-Europe trade routes, we must note that the strength
of the Egyptian Empire was predicated upon its pre-Suez function as a
trade route link between Asia and Europe via the Indian Ocean, the Red
Sea, overland  caravan to the Nile, and then water-borne to Alexandria,
or via Somaliland, overland to the headwaters of the Nile, and thence to
Alexandria.  The latter route was not economically

2000-10-01 Thread Aleisha Saba

Now this literature as captioned aboveo is not exactly liberal, or is
it...someone had asked what I thought about the demand in the bible
as what to do with people who do not live by the high standards set by
the Talmud and Old Testament.for instance, sodomites should be
killed and I did want to know where Joe Lieberman stood on
thisfrankly I would take the Old Testament and have it
recodified?

So in my researched based on a very unique calendar code found in an old
1954 edition of a particular biblethese directives in the bible are
being carried out by unknown hands, namely, the Mafiawho take
every word very literally and carry out orders, orders issued by the
Godfathers.in certain secret societies initiates have a Godfather
aka mentor, who brings them in for final initiaton and as in psalms they
re placed in families, and hence cosidered "made men".Some say to
reach this unholy state they must commit a murder and be able to prove
who did what.

So when in Rome do as the Romans..this applies to Israel as well.

But as Martin Luther King said, I Had a Dreamyet the Old Testament
demands the dramers of dreams SHALL be slain.so KING Playing a
Moses,  was gunned down on a balcony overlooking the promised land in a
very well planned murder..CFR Wurf's Union, brought King to his
death and as in Dallas, people todoay wonder who did what, but most
realy do not care.

Strange though religion has never been a test for qualification to run
for President or Vice Presidentso we still have a high tribunal
meeting at midnight judging who will live and who will die?

Okay for Lieberman to spout off the Old Testament but not for little
Christian children to say a simple prayer in school?

The entire operation of the Mafia is built about the Old
Testamentbut then what better bok to use than the bible which
condones genocide and sets such high standards for - why the hell should

Today’s Second Amendment Lesson

*  If you don't know your rights, you don't have any.


SOS:  Screwing Our Scouts 

We’re coming to you today from Phoenix, Arizona ... where we’ve had no 
problem at all finding Bush/Cheney road signs.  Lots of them.  Haven’t seen a 
single Alpha-Al/Holy-Joe sign ... but did catch a few “Bunny Goldfarb” signs. 
 Don’t know if she’s a Democrat or a Republican, though.  Instead of an 
elephant or a donkey on her signs, there’s a rabbit.  Go figure.

We’ve also had no problem finding continued controversy over the Supreme 
Court’s ruling that the Boy Scouts have the right to set up their own 
membership criteria.  But because the Scouts have determined that openly gay 
men are not acceptable role models for the young boys in their organization, 
the Tempe (a Phoenix suburb) mayor and city manager here recently decreed 
that voluntary government employee contributions to the United Way earmarked 
for the Scouts will henceforth be prohibited.  

“City funds should not be used to discriminate,” said acting City Manager 
John Greco.  Um, but this matter doesn’t involve any city funds.  It pertains 
to employees voluntarily checking off a pledge card box specifying that their 
voluntary United Way contribution go to the Scouts.  Ah, but let’s not let 
the facts get in the way of a good politically-correct temper-tantrum, right? 
 (Defend the Scouts by signing the petition urging the national press to 
query the presidential candidates on this issue at 
http://www.defendingscouts.com)


And Now, From the Other Extreme... 

“Columnist Deroy Murdock has defended sodomite (Arizona) Republican state 
representative Steve May for the indefensible. ... Sodomy is reprehensible, 
filthy, disgusting, a crime against nature and a crime against civilization.  
The penalty God gave for it is death.  Now I realize that many people today 
think they are above God, but 'taint necessarily so!  Matter of fact, if 
these guys and gals are above God and proclaim that there is no such thing as 
right and wrong, then who are they to say that GOD is ‘wrong’ in His 
judgement toward sodomy?  I believe I'll go with God on this one.  Mr. May 
has earned God's eternal death penalty unless he repents, is born again, and 
walks the regenerate, not degenerate, life.”

Date: Monday, September 18, 2000 2:49 AM

 Friday night, 9/15/00, Sean David Morton, in an interview with Mike
Siegel on the nationwide/international radio broadcast "Coast to Coast," told
about a recent secret meeting at which Clinton attempted to sell-out the U. S.
 Sean has many inside connections to 'those in the know.'  He stated his
connections informed him that Clinton attended a recent international
conference for the NWO (Bilderbergers ?) where he told the wealthy, powerful
and secret elite group of men that he had made everything ready for the
United States to be taken over if they wanted him to proceed.  They responded
by telling Clinton that Bush had their blessing to be the next president and
that if he, Clinton, tried anything, "they would kill him."
 Sean also stated that someone has put a curse on the presidency
resulting in a pattern that has emerged of presidents dying in office who
were elected in a year ending in a zero, as in 2000.  He stated that it is
possible whoever gets elected this time may die in office somehow; i.e., as
Harding did - elected in 1920 - dying of a heart attack in 1923 in San
Francisco.

Iran and Kuwait call for regional cooperation for stability
Kuwait City, Oct 1, IRNA -- Iran's Interior Minister Abdolvahed
Mousavi-Lari and and the Speaker of the Kuwaiti National
Assembly Jassem Mohammad Al-Kharafi here on Sunday stressed
the need for cooperation among littoral states of the Persian Gulf to
secure stability in the region.
In the meeting, Al-Kharafi underlined the important role of the
Islamic Republic of Iran in the region and described Iran as a `great
and important' country.
He said the Kuwaiti national assembly is for the friendship
between the two countries and expressed hope that the exchange
of visits will strengthen relations.
The Kuwait official said, "Stability and calm bring blessing to
the people of the region and the foreigners should not be permitted
to make mischief among brothers."
Al-Kharafi added the Kuwaiti parliament tries to bring the
countries closer at the regional and international levels.
He said the efforts made by the interior ministries of the two
countries to expand the bilateral relations are very `important and
valuable' and expressed hope that important steps will be taken in
this regard.
Mousavi-Lari called the current discussions between the officials
of the two countries `positive and constructive' and said the two
sides should go beyond the generalities and work out the details.
The meeting was also attended by Kuwait's interior minister
Sheikh Mohammad Khaled Al-Sabah, a group of Kuwaiti
parliamentarians, the delegation accompanying Iran's interior
minister and Iran's ambassador to Kuwait Ali Jannati.

[CTRL] Kursk Update

Kursk Update
Date: Tuesday, September 12, 2000 11:49 AM


According the Russian media source Venik's Aviation,
Russian investigators are still claiming that the Kursk,
the Russian submarine that recently sank, was struck by
a US submarine, specifically, the USS Memphis. They are
said to claim the USS Memphis was tracked leaving the
area headed toward a Norwegian port where it has been
receiving repairs. Russian investigators have allegedly
asked to inspect the exterior of the USS Memphis but the
Pentagon will not allow them to even look at the Memphis,
the exterior of which apparently has become a top-secret
despite its having been openly photographed in the past.
Another Russian media source recently caste doubt on the
sub-collision theory: http://Gazeta.ru/manilodka.shtml
Michael Rivero has a page devoted to the sub-collision
theory: http://whatreallyhappened.com/KURSK/kursk.html

Here's a recent report (9/11/00) from Venik's Aviation:

http://www.aeronautics.ru/nws002/kursk001.htm

As of Sept. 11, 2000, Russian investigators believe
that Kursk collided with the USS Memphis of the US Navy.
This submarine is an experimental platform used by the
US Navy to test new weapons and other systems. It was
manufactured in 1977 and modified for special-purpose
operation in 1989 and again in 1994.

The collision was registered by Norwegian and Russian
seismologists as a weak "seismic event," which was
followed by a powerful explosion 2 minutes 15 seconds
later. There is a number of scientifically-valid
explanations as to how a collision could have caused
an explosion aboard Kursk 135 seconds later. The exact
mechanism of such a process is now being studied.

The USS Memphis was detected by the Russian nuclear
cruiser Peter the Great at the bottom of the sea not
far from Kursk. The American submarine released a
rescue buoy and transmitted a coded emergency radio
signal on NATO frequencies, requesting an emergency
entry to a Norwegian naval base. The USS Memphis was
able to recover from the collision (it was not as
heavily damaged as Kursk, because the collision did
not result in any explosions aboard the American
submarine) and, after pulling down the rescue buoy,
left the scene of the accident. The submarine's
departure was also registered by the Russian cruiser.

The USS Memphis was initially tracked by a Kamov
antisubmarine helicopter based aboard Peter the Great.
Later, two Il-38 antisubmarine aircraft, piloted by Lt.
Col. Dergunov and Lt. Col. Dovzhenko, deployed hydro-
acoustic buoys and detected the USS Memphis traveling
at only 5 knots. The submarine was continuously tracked
by Russian vessels, aircraft and satellites until it
reached the Norwegian port in Bergen. During the last
reconnaissance flight of an Il-38 on August 18, the
aircraft's pilot - Lt. Col. Dergunov - was unable to
detect the submarine due to strong EM and hydro-acoustic
interference from NATO defenses. Later that day the USS
Memphis docked in Bergen.

The Russian Military Prosecutor General's office
announced that they are prepared to charge the senior
crew members of an unnamed vessel that collided with
Kursk in accordance with the Article 263 of the Russian
Criminal Code. The name of the vessel is know to the
investigators but has not been made public. It was
mentioned that the Pentagon has denied the official
request by the Russian government to inspect the outer
hull of the USS Memphis. After staying in Bergen in a
dock for a short period of time the USS Memphis left
for a British naval base. Again, the American submarine
was tracked by the Russian Navy and by satellites.

Even the most furious opponents of the collision
theory are bewildered by the Pentagon's refusal to
allow an external visual inspection of the USS Memphis.
This old submarine has been seen at public events,
photographed, videotaped and at least its external
features ceased to be a secret many years ago. Clearly,
if the USS Memphis did not collide with Kursk, even a
brief inspection of its hull would be quite enough to
lift any suspicions. Such an inspection could have been
carried out quickly and easily, because the USS Memphis
was sitting in a dock in Bergen. Americans refused a
simple and reasonable request from Russia. This is
viewed by many as a de facto admission of guilt. The
situation is aggravated by the fact, that the Pentagon
officials lied about the number of American submarines
observing the Russian Navy exercise in the Barents Sea:
the US military officials stated that there were two
submarines, while there were three submarines.

At this moment, Russian prosecutors base their conclusions
on four major facts:

1. The is a history of collision between American and
Russian submarines in the Barents Sea.

2. Three US Navy submarines were present in the area of
the Northern Fleet's exercise at the time of the Kursk accident.

3. Immediately after the sinking of

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In the 1980s, cocaine use skyrocketed in the U.S. As hundreds of tons of
cocaine began flooding American cities, the U.S. government focused more and
more of its resources on combatting it, and the CIA played a major role.
However, with millions of dollars at stake, and the opportunity to
surreptitiously influence the political and military outcomes of conflicts
around the globe, the CIA quickly subverted the goals of the Drug War to suit
its own purposes. Many of these later came to light as part of the
Iran-Contra scandal and the California CIA-Contra cocaine story that broke in
the San Jose Mercury News. Others, such as Operation Pseudo Miranda, remained
cloaked in secrecy . . until now. Appealing to his derring-do and his
interest in criminal justice, the CIA recruited Ken Bucchi directly out of
quiet Murray State University. They put him through a rigorous training
program at a secret base in the Nevada desert, then sent him off to fight the
Colombian cocaine cartels. Bucchi quickly became a key operative. He tells of
meeting with then CIA director William Casey and developing a plan-Pseudo
Miranda-to make a deal with the "coke lords" that would enable the CIA to
simultaneously abet and control the major cartels and to seize half of the
cocaine being smuggled into the U.S. The story that unfolds is gripping. It
involves harrowing missions into Colombia to destroy coca labs and interdict
drug flights, encounters with the "Cocaine Cowboys" of Medellin, and running
gun battles on the high seas with smugglers. It is laced with mortal danger,
profound ethical dilemmas, bravery, forbidden love, and betrayal. In the end,
things go terribly wrong for the Miranda team, but Bucchi survives to tell
the shocking truth about the CIA and America's war on drugs.

He tells about secret meetings
* With Vice President George Bush, CIA Director William Casey and agent
Claire George. * With mid-level officials from different government agencies,
including the DEA, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the FBI and the
Department of Defense.

* With the notorious "coke lords" Pablo Escobar, Manuel Noriega and Fabio
Ochoa, among others.

He reveals secret missions
* To Zurich, Switzerland, to negotiate clandestine deals with heads of the
dominant cartels. * To Korea to feed disinformation to reporter Carl
Bernstein.

He reveals some interesting tidbits about the media and the courts * Frank
Rubino, Manuel Noriega's defense attorney, said on "Larry King Live" that the
operation had close ties to his client and mentioned Ken Bucchi by name.

* Sam Donaldson interviewed Ken Bucchi on "Prime Time Live," but the show was
cancelled because it was too hot to air. * Investigative journalist Carl
Bernstein sought him out in regard to the CIA's illegal drug activity.

About the Author
Kenneth C. Bucchi has lived an adventurous life. He holds a B.S. in
Criminology; served six years as a Captain in the Air Force, fought in the
Gulf War, and worked four years as both a private and corporate investigator.
In 1999 he wrote Inside Job: Deep Undercover as a Corporate Spy
(1-883955-28-9, Penmarin Books, 1999), which chronicles his experiences as a
corporate investigator, and which Atlas Entertainment has optioned as a

2000-10-01 Thread Kris Millegan

http://www.angelfire.com/id/ciadrugs/congress-cia-drug-history-doc.html
-
DUring 1998 congressional hearings on funding for the CIA and other
intelligence agencies, Congressman John Conyers (D-Mich.) entered into the
Congressional Record "A Tangled Web: A History of CIA Complicity in Drug
International Trafficking," which was written by the Institute for Policy
Studies. It's a good short read and has some suprising characters, like Lucky
Luciano, the notorious gangster who apparently earned a pardon due to his
loyal work for the OSS (the precursor to the CIA), and Meyer Lansky, the
mobster who ran the rackets in Havana, Cuba before Fidel Castro took power
(Lansky escaped to Miami, Florida in the U.S.A. to wreck havoc in Miami for
another 20 years).

A Tangled Web: A History of CIA Complicity in Drug International Trafficking:

WORLD WAR II

The Office of Strategic Services (OSS) and the Office of Naval Intelligence
(ONI), the CIA's parent and sister organizations, cultivate relations with
the leaders of the Italian Mafia, recruiting heavily from the New York and
Chicago underworlds, whose members, including Charles 'Lucky' Luciano, Meyer
Lansky, Joe Adonis, and Frank Costello, help the agencies keep in touch with
Sicilian Mafia leaders exiled by Italian dictator Benito Mussolini.
Domestically, the aim is to prevent sabotage on East Coast ports, while in
Italy the goal is to gain intelligence on Sicily prior to the allied
invasions and to suppress the burgeoning Italian Communist Party. Imprisoned
in New York, Luciano earns a pardon for his wartime service and is deported
to Italy, where he proceeds to build his heroin empire, first by diverting
supplies from the legal market, before developing connections in Lebanon and
Turkey that supply morphine base to labs in Sicily. The OSS and ONI also work
closely with Chinese gangsters who control vast supplies of opium, morphine
and heroin, helping to establish the third pillar of the post-world War II
heroin trade in the Golden Triangle, the border region of Thailand, Burma,
Laos and China's Yunnan Province.

1947

In its first year of existence, the CIA continues U.S. intelligence
community's anti-communist drive. Agency operatives help the Mafia seize
total power in Sicily and it sends money to heroin-smuggling Corsican
mobsters in Marseille to assist in their battle with Communist unions for
control of the city's docks. By 1951, Luciano and the Corsicans have pooled
their resources, giving rise to the notorious 'French Connection' which would
dominate the world heroin trade until the early 1970s. The CIA also recruits
members of organized crime gangs in Japan to help ensure that the country
stays in the non-communist world. Several years later, the Japanese Yakuza
emerges as a major source of methamphetamine in Hawaii.

1950

The CIA launches Project Bluebird to determine whether certain drugs might
improve its interrogation methods. This eventually leads CIA head Allen
Dulles, in April 1953, to institute a program for 'covert use of biological
and chemical materials' as part of the agency's continuing efforts to control
behavior. With benign names such as Project Artichoke and Project Chatter,
these projects continue through the 1960s, with hundreds of unwitting test
subjects given various drugs, including LSD.

MAY 1970

A Christian Science Monitor correspondent reports that the CIA 'is cognizant
of, if not party to, the extensive movement of opium out of Laos,' quoting
one charter pilot who claims that 'opium shipments get special CIA clearance
and monitoring on their flights southward out of the country.' At the time,
some 30,000 U.S. service men in Vietnam are addicted to heroin.

JUNE 1980

Despite advance knowledge, the CIA fails to halt members of the Bolivian
militaries, aide by the Argentine counterparts, from staging the so-called
'Cocaine Coup,' according to former DEA agent Michael Levine. In fact, the
25-year DEA veteran maintains the agency actively abetted cocaine trafficking
in Bolivia, where government officials who sought to combat traffickers faced
torture and death at the hands of CIA-sponsored paramilitary terrorists under
the command of fugitive Nazi war criminal (also protected by the CIA) Klaus
Barbie.

FEBRUARY 1985

DEA agent Enrique 'Kiki' Camerena is kidnapped and murdered in Mexico. DEA,
FBI and U.S. Customs Service investigators accuse the CIA of stonewalling
during their investigation. U.S. authorities claim the CIA is more interested
in protecting its assets, including top drug trafficker and kidnapping
principal Miguel Angel Felix Gallardo.

APRIL 1989

The Senate Subcommittee on Terrorism, Narcotics and International
Communications, headed by Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts, issues its
1,166-page report on drug corruption in Central America and the Caribbean.
The subcommittee found that 'there was substantial evidence of drug smuggling

Narco-colonialism
in the 20th Century

Hegel was right when he said that we learn from history that man can never
learn anything from history. -- George Bernard Shaw 1856-1950



Years ago, the "beat poet" Allen Ginsberg had access to unfiltered Associated
Press news feeds. Ginsberg had a habit of collecting the most interesting
printouts from the teletype machines, when access to wire feeds was rare. Of
the teletypes that Ginsberg collected, the ones that drew a straight line of
CIA involvement in running opium for Vang Pao and the Hmong in Laos during
the Vietnam war are the most memorable; they are the most memorable, not for
their scant information, but for helping researchers like Alfred McCoy
investigate the matter more deeply.

Ginsberg, quite the tireless radical, had a habit of telling people the truth
as he knew it, especially those in the establishment press. One particular
newspaper man, New York Times columnist C.L. Sulzberger, didn't believe
Ginsberg's portrayal of the CIA. Sulzberger, who later became editor-in-chief
at the paper, became indignant when poet Allen Ginsberg accused the CIA of
involvement in smuggling opium during the Vietnam War. But years later, on
April 11, 1978, Sulzberger wrote:


"Dear Allen,

I fear I owe you an apology. I have been reading a succession of pieces about
CIA involvement in the dope trade in Southeast Asia and I remember when you
first suggested I look into this I thought you were full of beans. Indeed you
were right and I acknowledge the fact plus sending my best personal wishes."

[Signed, C.L. Sulzberger]


Sulzberger wasn't unreasonable in doubting such an extraordinary claim,
perhaps the onus was on Ginsberg to provide some evidence. The most difficult
aspect of performing this kind of analysis is the admittedly thorny issue of
extrapolating from what is known.

This isn't necessarily an effort to make the CIA out as the absolute source
of all the evil in the world. But, in what has been termed a 'unipolar
world,' the CIA should certainly takes its fair share of the credit. In
counterpoint, it could be argued that regardless of who is vying for
influence in a region, if control over territory necessitates forging
military alliances with those who control the coca plantations or the poppy
fields, then the strategic end justifies the means.

Covert war is still war and covert warriors make logical military choices;
the USA has a habit of expanding its influence with whatever means are most
convenient. And so it appears a most enduring strategy has become pulling
economies along by their most easily-leveraged commodity. Wars are
functionally the result of economic questions being answered with violence.
Covert action and warfare march to the same tune.

Perhaps the objective is to not so much blame the CIA as blame U.S.
politicians. The CIA is an instrument of the American two party system,
whereby the Democrats play innocent and the Republicans play ignorant. Let's
be direct: The American two-party system sets policy. The CIA is in the
business of executing those policies. If U.S. policy entails expanding the
realm of U.S. influence, and it has to be done covertly, then the CIA readily
opts to forge alliances with regional criminal enterprises. That's the way of
covert action and warfare.

But for the CIA to gain any level of influence, a quid-pro-quo arrangement is
required. In exchange for that criminal enterprise working for the CIA in
some capacity, the CIA has to somehow protect or promote a criminal
enterprises' interests.

Since the market for illicit narcotics is international, and the interests of
the CIA is international, then the relationship is inevitable.

Place the blame where you will.

PIPELINES:

Enter the protected narcotics pipeline. U.S. government protection can mean
any number of things. But the documentary history shows that invoking the
rubric of 'national security,' lifting customs barriers, granting immunity
and nullifying criminal prosecutions in U.S. courts, have all been tactics
employed by the U.S. intelligence community. These tactics functionally
protect a drug pipeline; the protection may not be indefinite or grant
unlimited impunity, but so long as a CIA alliance with a particular
trafficker holds, the trafficker's pipelines become protected.

Skirting and flouting the rule of law is normal protocol - understandably so,
from the perspective of a covert warrior - except for many years, the CIA was
generally proscribed from various operations within the borders of the U.S.A.
(well, that law was skirted and flouted, too). Underscoring this assertion is
a public admission by the CIA it had reached a secret agreement with the
Department of Justice so its agents, contract agents and assets could deal
drugs without fear of prosecution.

These days, evidence presents itself in abundance. In October 1996, Jack Blum

DRUGS? They want to talk about drugs in America?

Before this sordid tale is finished with the telling, both Bob Dole, who
injected rising drug use among adolescents into the presidential campaign,
and Bill Clinton, who couldn't resist saying something back, may regret
getting mired in the subject of illegal narcotics.

Before this political season is over, each man may be forced to talk about an
ugly chapter in the history of urban drug use that they would rather not
confront: a scheme in which Latin American smugglers sold drugs in the
American ghetto and used the profits to fund anti-Communist guerrillas in
Nicaragua, all with the tacit approval of the Central Intelligence Agency
(CIA). You haven't heard Dole or Clinton bring that up, have you?

The story-reported by the San Jose Mercury News in a series called "Dark
Alliance" and supported with exhaustive detail and volumes of documents-has
set off a clamor for an investigation. The call has even been joined by
retired Army General Barry McCaffrey, the Clinton administration's drug czar.
The furor could force the Dole and Clinton campaigns to say something
sensible about illegal narcotics in America, after all.

There will be no admissions from Spy Central, of course. They will never
admit that their obsession with enemies abroad allowed them to acquiesce to a
scheme which ensnared thousands of their own citizens in the violence soaked
web of crack cocaine. The renegades at the CIA have always operated in the
shadows, beyond the reach of the laws which govern the rest of us. That does
not seem to change-no matter how many times a president or a Senate committee
promises to rein them in.

But there need not be any admission of culpability from the CIA for the
nation's leaders to acknowledge what those at ground zero of the crack
epidemic have known all along: The socalled war on drugs has always been a
war on the vulnerable black and brown poor. It did not take a major
newspaper's account of the cynical exploitation of America's ghettos by
Nicaraguan anti-Communists and their CIA handlers to tip us off to the simple
truth that American lawmakers are much more interested in locking up black
men than in reducing drug use. That is self-evident.

This much we knew long before the Mercury News gave us the rest of the ugly
story: The laws governing powdered cocaine, which is used and sold largely by
whites, and crack cocaine, used and sold largely by blacks, are very
different. It takes 100 times as much powdered co caine to land you in jail
as it does crack.

As a consequence of those disparate laws, thousands of young black men and
women have been locked away for long stretches while their white peers get
probation. It is because of the absurd "war on drugs" that on~third- begin
one-third -of all black men in their 20s are under the jurisdiction of the
criminal justice system-in jail, on parole or on probation.

It is too late to save some of the young black men who were sucked into the
violence spawned by the crack trade. They took too easily to dealing drugs
and killing; they belong in prison. But there are countless black men and
women who have committed no violent crimes who can still be salvaged with
low-cost drug treatment programs. They do not belong in prison for succumbing
to a drug pushed on them by the CIA protected operatives who flooded Los
Angeles with cocaine so cheap any fool could buy it. And many fools did.

This "war on drugs" was always a phony way to make politicians look like they
were protecting us from criminals.

West funds anti-opium fungus

Pleosporafungus: A biological weapon for the drugs war
By Diplomatic correspondent James Robbins

The UK and the US are funding research on a new biological
weapon in an effort to destroy the heroin trade.

The research, by former Soviet scientists in Uzbekistan, is being
supervised by the United Nations Drug Control Programme
(UNDCP).


Professor Abdusattar: One test tube kills 10 sq metres of poppies
But there are doubts about the safety of the killer fungus they have
developed, and the legality of any plan to spray the spores over
Afghanistan - the source of most of Europe's poppy opium for
heroin.

The BBC has obtained unique access to the laboratory across the
border from Afghanistan, in Uzbekistan, where the fungus is now
being tested.

Huge step

It has filmed in the laboratory and spoken to the scientist in
charge, Professor Abdukarimov Abdusattar, as well as to a British
scientist in Bristol, Dr Mike Greaves, who oversees the work on
behalf of the UNDCP.


Dr Greaves: It's safe "to the best of our knowledge"
Professor Abdusattar says one test tube contains millions of
spores - sufficient to destroy 10 square metres of poppies by
attacking the roots and killing them from inside.

But moving from research paid for largely by the UK and the US to
using what amounts to a biological weapon would be a huge step.

Some scientists are worried the culture could mutate and attack
other plants, or harm animals and humans.

Also, spraying the fungus over the poppy fields of Afghanistan
without permission from the Taleban regime there, which is unlikely
to be granted, could amount to illegal biological warfare.


Afghanistan may deny permission to use the weapon
However, Dr Greaves says the fungus appears so far to be safe.

"We are still working on the safety aspects, to be absolutely sure,"
he told the BBC's Panorama programme.

"At the moment we have tested, for example, 130 other plant
species and it does not affect any of those."

You can see the whole of Panorama's investigation "Britain's secret
war on drugs" on BBC One, on Monday at 2200 BST (2100 GMT).

During WWII the Queen mother refused to flee to the safety of Canada
during he warmight add today, look how the Pentagon has put
themselves in seige and the White House living in seige - and alleged
underground facilities being built for the safety of these cowardly
lions.   What have they done to protect and defend the shores of our
country?

As Clinton hides behind the skirts of women to do his dirty work for him
- leaving a body bag count from here to Canada to the Balkans I was
thinking of the Queen Mother, who stayed with her peoplelike a
George Patton - he often led his troops to battle at the front - not
following behind like one of Hooker's hookers.

Nice story here for anyone interested in the last true Monarch of the
people..

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, CI, GCVO, GBE

The Queen Mother was born Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon on 4th August, 1900.
She grew up on the family estate in Scotland and enjoyed an open and
active childhood. Being born an aristocrat rather than a royal she was
free from the constraints of royal children. However, Lady Elizabeth was
no stranger to royalty and after a long courtship married Prince Bertie,
the second son of King George V.

After the abdication of King Edward VIII, Elizabeth and her husband
became king and queen. Throughout the history of the English monarchy
war has played an important role and for Elizabeth this was no
exception.

As a child she had tended wounded soldiers from the First World War and
she now she found herself queen to a nation during World War II.

During the war the urban areas of London were blitzed by the Nazis and
Elizabeth would often visit the bomb sites to help boost morale.

Pleaded with by many to leave war-torn Britain for the comparative
safety of Canada, the gallant lady, in concert with her husband the
king, refused.

After Buckingham Palace was bombed during an air raid Elizabeth said
that at last she could look the blitzed east end of London in the face
as her home had suffered the same fate. On the death of her husband in
1952 she retired her position as Queen and her daughter became Queen
Elizabeth II. Queen Elizabeth adopted the title 'Queen Mother' to avoid
any confusion that may arise from having the same name as her daughter,
Queen Elizabeth II.

The Queen Mother has a hectic diary that includes state, military, civic
and charity engagements. Although the Queen Mother ceased to be queen 43
years ago she continues to act in something of a shadow role in support
of her daughter. The Queen Mother has shown that she can move with the
times and has secured a unique position of affection in the hearts of
the public. She has a rare and valuable blend of dignity, grace, an
understanding of non-royal life and a straightforwardly pleasant
personality.

Honours:

Lady of the Garter
Lady of the Thistle
CI - Order of the Crown of India
GCVO - Royal Victorian Order
GBE - Order of the British Empire (First Class)

White House Plays Hardball
In Ad Payment Dispute 
Saturday, September 30, 2000   
NEW YORK — The White House is withholding millions of dollars in payments to 
a major advertising firm after allegations that the firm may have overbilled 
the government for its work on a media campaign, The New York Times reported 
Saturday. 

The White House drug-policy office, which oversees the media campaign aimed 
at discouraging young people from using drugs, has held back about $13.5 
million in payments on $187 million that has been billed by the firm, Ogilvy 
 Mather, according to officials cited by the newspaper. 

A consultant hired by the White House to assess the charges found that 
Ogilvy's costs, particularly for labor, were "dramatically higher than even 
the high end of what is standard industry practice," according to an internal 
government memorandum cited by The Times. 

Officials of the White House agency, the Office of National Drug Control 
Policy, said there was no evidence that the company had engaged in fraud, the 
newspaper said. 

Howard G. Paster, a spokesman for Ogilvy, said it was routine for bills to be 
negotiated. He said the company expected to be paid for its work and did not 
expect a significant reduction in billing. 

The General Accounting Office began an inquiry into the contract in July, 
Robert H. Hass, the director of the office, told The Times. Hass said the 
agency has begun a full financial audit of the contract. 

Ogilvy is the primary government contractor in an anti-drug advertising and 
education effort called the National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign. The 
campaign, which began in 1998, is expected to cost nearly $1 billion over 
five years. 

The campaign was criticized earlier this year, when it became known that 
popular television shows were submitting their scripts to the White House 
drug office. 

The scripts were submitted as part of a deal under which TV networks received 
millions of dollars worth of financial credits for including positive 
anti-drug messages in their shows.

[CTRL] The tyranny within

2000-10-01 Thread J Taylor

http://www.washtimes.com/commentary/commentary-200092918712.htm

THE WASHINGTON TIMES
September 29, 2000

The tyranny within



Paul Craig Roberts

 Tyranny is creeping up on us. If you don't believe it, consider the
most prominent hallmarks of the Nazi and communist regimes, which sought to
supplant democracy in the 20th century.
 In National Socialist Germany and the Soviet Union, there were no First
Amendment rights. No one could voice an opinion contrary to the politically
correct views enforced by the Gestapo and the KGB. Media and education were
used to instill politically correct thinking and bring denunciation upon
anyone who departed from politically correct thinking.
 This is precisely the situation that exists today in the vast majority
of American colleges and universities. Verbal and facial expressions that
are contrary to political correctness result in sensitivity training (a form
of brainwashing) or expulsion for the offender, who may have done nothing
more than laugh. If the source of mirth is an ethnic joke, a blonde joke or
a hilarious claim by a multiculturalist, the hapless offender discovers that
his constitutional protections do not exist.
 In Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union, there were victim groups that
were championed and oppressor groups that were suppressed. In Germany, the
"victims" were Aryans, who were said to be under the financial hegemony of
Jews. In the Soviet Union, the hegemonic group was the bourgeoisie, who
allegedly held sway over an oppressed proletariat. In both countries,
victims were permitted to exercise violent language and actions against
oppressors.
 In the United States today, white heterosexual able-bodied males
constitute the hegemonic group. Everyone else is a member of a victim group.
 In Germany and the Soviet Union, the abstract and imaginary group roles
of oppressor and victim were given a frightful reality by ideologues. Race
and class categories became the basis for discrimination and new legal
systems that favored victims' groups with preferences.
 On American campuses, multicultural ideology has revived the concepts
of race and class oppression, and added new ones based on gender and sexual
orientation. Men oppress women, and heterosexuals oppress homosexuals.
 According to multiculturalists, our culture and values reflect nothing
but the arbitrary domination of society by white heterosexual males.
University of Pennsylvania professor Alan Kors says that, thanks to
multiculturalism, "half a century after the defeat of Nazism, we distinguish
by blood and we equate blood with culture." We now think like Nazis and
explain our society and culture in terms of race (and gender) hegemony.
 Tyrannical states attack the family. Both the Nazis and communists are
infamous for state intrusions in family affairs. In the United States,
similar bureaucratic and political intrusions come from family courts. Most
Americans are unaware of the existence of these relatively new "courts."
Howard University Professor Stephen Baskerville is the leading authority on
these courts. He says family courts are "the most dangerous institution
posing a threat to constitutional rights in our society. The only parallels
are the ideological-bureaucratic dictatorships of the last century."
 Family courts claim immunity from the Constitution and from scrutiny by
federal courts. Mr. Baskerville describes them as follows: "Their
proceedings are secret and unrecorded. Their orders are enforced by
bureaucratic police who do not wear uniforms and whose sole responsibility
is to conduct surveillance over families and private lives. As such, these
police are akin to secret police. By the very nature of their jurisdiction,
these courts and police are the most intrusive and invasive arm of
government, and yet they are accountable to virtually no one. Such an
institution is intolerable in a free society."
 Recently a family court judge ordered the parents of a 7-year-old boy
in Berne, N.Y., to put their child on Ritalin, a behavior-control drug. The
alternative was to be found guilty of "educational neglect," an offense that
would open the possibility of their child being seized by Child Protective
Services — a Hillary Clinton "village" institution straight from the pages
of the Gestapo. The child suffered serious side effects from the drug, but
parents no longer have the right to decide what is best for their children.
 Tyrannical states assault the individual in the inner recesses of his
consciousness. He is not permitted to think certain thoughts or to express a
prohibited thought privately to anyone.
 Recently, Janice Barton encountered a Spanish-speaking couple while
leaving a restaurant in Manistee, Mich. She turned to her mother and said,
"I wish these [ethnic slur] would learn to speak English." An off-duty
deputy sheriff overheard the private remark, followed the woman to her car
and noted her tag number. Janice

[CTRL] Falun Gong Marks China National Day with Protests

Falun Gong Marks China National Day with Protests

By Jeremy Page
BEIJING (Reuters) - Hundreds of followers of the banned
Falun
Gong spiritual movement marred China's National
Day
celebrations on Sunday with huge protests in a packed
Tiananmen
Square, witnesses said.
Police detained several hundred Falun Gong members,
kicking,
punching and pulling them by the hair as they herded
them onto
buses after protests broke out all round the vast
plaza crammed
with foreign and Chinese tourists, they said.
The defiant protests on the 51st anniversary of Communist
rule
highlight Beijing's failure to stamp out the group, which
has set an
alarming precedent with its relentless campaign of
civil
disobedience since it was banned last year.
One group unfurled a red banner saying ``Falun Gong is
good''
below a huge portrait of Chairman Mao Zedong looking over
the
square, but plainclothes officers soon swept from the
crowds
and wrestled them away.
Others among the largely elderly or middle-aged
protesters
assumed the lotus position or formed human chains,
and many
waved and signaled to puzzled onlookers as they were
whisked
off to a police station nearby.
After more than an hour of protests, police completely
cleared the
square for about thirty minutes before allowing
tourists to pour
back in limited numbers.
Millions of Chinese have jammed shops and mobbed tourist
spots
on the first day of the week-long National Day holiday as
the
government urged them to do their patriotic duty and spend
more
money.
Tight Security
Security around Beijing has been tight ahead of the October
1
anniversary -- one of many ``sensitive dates'' in China when
those
with gripes against the government try to stage public
protests,
often on Tiananmen Square, the nation's political
heart.
But Falun Gong members have defied the heavy police
presence
with similar protests almost daily since the
government banned
the group in July last year and branded it an
''evil cult.''
Next month will bring the first anniversary of China's
parliament
rubber-stamping a draconian law against cults, which
paved the
way for tough sentences on Falun Gong leaders.
Beijing says it has jailed about 150 organizers of the
spiritual
group, which it accuses of causing 1,500 deaths and
600 cases of
mental illness.
Falun Gong says thousands of adherents are in labor
camps
without trial, and a Hong Kong-based human rights group
says at
least 52 adherents have died in government custody since
the
ban.
In the most recent reported case, a Chinese policeman who
was
also a Falun Gong follower died in a labor camp in northern
Hebei
province, a Hong Kong-based rights group said last week.
Thorn In The Side
Falun Gong has now become a major thorn in Beijing's
side,
winning sympathy from other religious groups and dissidents
and
adding fuel to Western criticism of its human rights
record,
especially on freedom of religion.
Religion in China, restricted to official state-backed
churches, has
been under the spotlight this week due to a
bitter dispute over the
Vatican's plan to canonise 120 Chinese
martyrs on National Day.
State media have also voiced alarm at the notion of
democracy
activists and ethnic separatists in the restive
regions of Tibet and
Xinjiang copying Falun Gong's campaign of
peaceful protests.
This month, exiled poet Huang Beiling called on
China's
intellectuals to follow the example of Falun Gong
meditators by
fighting government oppression with civil
disobedience.
China said on Thursday Falun Gong was scheming with
''Western
anti-China forces'' including Tibetans, Taiwanese and
exiled
dissidents bent on toppling the government.
Falun Gong, which combines meditation and exercise with
a
doctrine rooted loosely in Buddhist and Taoist teachings,
first
rattled the ruling Communist Party with an
unexpected
10,000-strong protest in Beijing in April 1999.

Democracy and capitalism are two entirely different, and diametrically
opposed, ways of life. Capitalism is inherently undemocratic.  In a
democracy, all people participitate in decision making. In capitalism, the
vast overwhelming majority of the decisions that impact the everday life
of most people is made by the boards of directors of the major
corporations. These boards are not representitive of people as a whole.
The represent only the stock holders.  The vast overwhelming majority of
stock is held by a handful of people. This is not democracy. This is
plutocracy. One dollar, one vote.

Capitalism must also be distinguished from free enterprise. In free
enterprise, the state is not involved in any way. As soon as the state
gets involved, enterprise is no longer free.

PALESTINIANS RIOT IN THE LAND: Thursday morning Likud leader MK [Member of
Knesset] Ariel Sharon accompanied by a Likud delegation, spent one-hour on
the Temple Mount, the place of the First, Second and soon-to-be Third
Temples.  Sharon stated that a Jew wishing to visit an area in the capital
of Jerusalem may do so without having to explained his intentions.  His
visit gave the Palestinians an excuse to began the violence that has
lasted, as of this report, three days and has killed 15 Palestinians,
injured over 500 others -- both Jewish and Palestinians -- and caused
widespread violence throughout Eretz Israel.  Sharon had notified the
police earlier in the week who, in turn, notified the Waqf (Muslim
administration on the Temple Mount).

Contrary to the belief that it was Sharon's visit that caused the rioting,
very few Palestinians responded to calls to come to the Temple Mount to
protest.  Palestinian youth also steered clear of the Temple Mount even
though local schools were closed to allow them join in "the defense of
Jerusalem".  It was not until after Sharon left that the violence started.
A large number of officers escorting Sharon were hurt when Arabs hurled
large stones at them.  Hundreds of Arabs, following their prayers on the
Temple Mount Friday, hurled rocks and other objects at Jewish worshipers
at the Western Wall below. Police fired rubber-coated bullets at the stone
throwers, dispersed a majority of the 22,000 Muslim worshipers and
evacuated Jews praying in the area.  Arabs also threw stones at Israeli
ambulances that arrived on the scene.  The violence spread to other
locations and cities, as well.  Faisal Husseini, who holds the Palestinian
Authority's (PA- PLO) Jerusalem portfolio, was working to incite the large
crowd.  Israeli-Arab MKs were also among the instigators of the violence.
"Murderers of Palestinians!" and "This is not your Temple Mount" were
among the shouts heard from the Arab MKs.

NO 'CEASEFIRE' SAYS PLO: Israel and the Palestinians did not agree to a
ceasefire Saturday, contrary to Israeli statements, said Mohammed Dahlan,
the head of PLO preventive security in the Gaza Strip.  The Israeli army's
chief of staff, Shaul Mofaz, had earlier told reporters that he had spoken
to Dahlan and his counterpart in charge of Yesha (Judea and Samaria),
Jibril Rajoub, and that the two sides agreed on a ceasefire to begin at
4:00 p.m.  (1300 GMT).  Separately, Dahlan told the Qatari television
network AL-JAZEERA that the PLO would demand that "all Israeli soldiers
responsible for what happened" be tried.

IDF SOLDIER KILLED BY 'PEACE PARTNER': A Border police officer, Chief
Inspector Yossi Tabaja, 27, from Ramle was killed and another Israel
Defense Forces (IDF) soldier was lightly injured Friday when a PLO
'paramilitary policeman' opened fire on them.  The terrorist attack took
place in the town of Kalkilya, located east of Kfar Saba in Area A (under
Palestinian administrative and security control), YEDIOT AHARONOT ON-LINE
reported.  The terrorist was a member of a joint Israel/PA-PLO security
patrol.  The PLO has announced that the terrorist is in 'custody'.
Earlier in the week, Israel suspended joint patrols in the Gaza area with
senior IDF commanders stating that in many cases, PA-PLO military
personnel are part of the problem rather than the solution, explaining
that not only do they not participate in stopping violence, in many cases
they are part of the

  The other day, Rush Limbaugh took a phone call from a calm,
reasonable-sounding man who said that there were some Americans who simply
weren't going to stand for being steamrollered by liberalism any more, that
they were prepared - indeed, expected - to have to fight an armed revolution
to take their country back.

  Rush gets calls like that periodically. As he always does, he asked the
caller where the battles of this revolution would be fought, and how.  This
particular caller did not (as such callers usually do not) provide any clear
answers, perhaps because he hadn't thought the subject through completely.
But
the man was right about one thing: There definitely are a number of people in
the United States who are armed, ready, and waiting - simply for some tipping
point - to start shooting.

  They just don't call up talk shows and say so.

  How many of them are there? Somewhere between 50,000 and a million.
Enough to cause a whole lot of trouble. Yes, some of them nurture romantic
dreams of fighting guerrilla battles in the mountains. Plenty of others -
enough - know that won't work.

  They know that revolutions are not won by pitched battles. They know
that no insurrectionary force could stand up to the firepower of the United
States military. No, instead, they have death lists. They plan
assassinations.
They know that some few - perhaps a few thousand - key people direct the
legal, regulatory, and cultural movements they despise. And they have adopted
a simple credo, one by one: "I'll get two of them before they get one of me."

  This revolutionary cadre, entirely unorganized, simmering like an
unfocused viral epidemic, occupies the core of a number of discontented
populations. In the broadest sense, they constitute the armed wing of what
political activist Grover Norquist called "the leave-us-alone coalition."

  Make no mistake, the powers that be know this. And they're afraid.
That
fear lies behind the moves in the liberal establishment to outlaw home
schooling, state by state; to oppose school vouchers, battleground by
battleground (have to preserve that indoctrination); to create military-style
law enforcement units in agencies like the Immigration and Naturalization
Service, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, and in Special Weapons
and Tactical Squads (SWAT teams) of local police departments; to demoralize
and weaken the military (which has a natural and historic affinity for
patriotism and "leave us alone" sentiments); to hype up executive security
forces; to confiscate guns; to hamstring free enterprise through lawsuits -
these and hundreds of other establishment efforts to consolidate dictatorial
power.

  These potential revolutionaries are resigned to being hated, demonized
as nut cases, religious fanatics, gap-toothed idiots, yokels, and benighted,
laughable fools. They know that a few deaths can make a big difference (look
how badly the Republican party has missed Lee Atwater). They're resigned to
forcing a national police action.  They're willing, like classic Leninists,
to
provoke a crackdown simply to rouse revolutionary chaos.

  As revolutionaries, these assassins-to-be also know that they probably
cannot win their fight. High-profile killings will certainly be treated as
terrorism by the government and the media, working in lockstep.  Some
assassinations will be covered up outright; the public will never know. The
revolutionaries may be counting on sympathy from the military - even the
desertion of some military units to the cause.  More likely, a demoralized
and
emasculated military will not get involved in the fight at all.

  But the revolutionaries don't care. At some key tipping point, they
reason their lives are forfeit anyway: their country is gone, its principles
and traditions raped, its institutions occupied by enemy forces. Change will
be impossible by any legal means. Democracy will be dead.

  That tipping point is very near.

Tyranny Is Here

Paul Craig Roberts Sept. 27, 2000


Tyranny is creeping up on us. If you don't believe it, consider the most
prominent hallmarks of the Nazi and Communist regimes, which sought to
supplant democracy in the 20th century.

In National Socialist Germany and the Soviet Union, there were no First
Amendment rights. No one could voice an opinion contrary to the politically
correct views enforced by the Gestapo and the KGB. Media and education were
used to instill politically correct thinking and bring denunciation upon
anyone who departed from politically correct thinking.

This is precisely the situation that exists today in the vast majority of
American colleges and universities. Verbal and facial expressions that are
contrary to political correctness result in sensitivity training (a form of
brainwashing) or expulsion for the offender, who may have done nothing more
than laugh. If the source of mirth is an ethnic joke, a blonde joke or a
hilarious claim by a multiculturalist, the hapless offender discovers that
his constitutional protections do not exist.

In Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union, there were victim groups that were
championed and oppressor groups that were suppressed. In Germany, the
"victims" were Aryans, who were said to be under the financial hegemony of
Jews. In the Soviet Union, the hegemonic group was the bourgeoisie, who
allegedly held sway over an oppressed proletariat. In both countries,
victims were permitted to exercise violent language and actions against
oppressors.

In the United States today, white heterosexual able-bodied males constitute
the hegemonic group. Everyone else is a member of a victim group.

In Germany and the Soviet Union, the abstract and imaginary group roles of
oppressor and victim were given a frightful reality by ideologues. Race and
class categories became the basis for discrimination and new legal systems
that favored victims' groups with preferences.

On American campuses, multicultural ideology has revived the concepts of
race and class oppression, and added new ones based on gender and sexual
orientation. Men oppress women, and heterosexuals oppress homosexuals.

According to multiculturalists, our culture and values reflect nothing but
the arbitrary domination of society by white heterosexual males. University
of Pennsylvania professor Alan Kors says that, thanks to multiculturalism,
"half a century after the defeat of Nazism, we distinguish by blood and we
equate blood with culture." We now think like Nazis and explain our society
and culture in terms of race (and gender) hegemony.

Tyrannical states attack the family. Both the Nazis and Communists are
infamous for state intrusions in family affairs. In the United States,
similar bureaucratic and political intrusions come from family courts. Most
Americans are unaware of the existence of these relatively new "courts."
Howard University professor Stephen Baskerville is the leading authority on
these courts. He says family courts are "the most dangerous institution
posing a threat to constitutional rights in our society. The only parallels
are the ideological-bureaucratic dictatorships of the last century."

Family courts claim immunity from the Constitution and from scrutiny by
federal courts. Baskerville describes them as follows:

"Their proceedings are secret and unrecorded. Their orders are enforced by
bureaucratic police who do not wear uniforms and whose sole responsibility
is to conduct surveillance over families and private lives. As such, these
police are akin to secret police. By the very nature of their jurisdiction,
these courts and police are the most intrusive and invasive arm of
government, and yet they are accountable to virtually no one. Such an
institution is intolerable in a free society."

Recently a family court judge ordered the parents of a 7-year-old boy in
Berne, N.Y., to put their child on Ritalin, a behavior-control drug. The
alternative was to be found guilty of "educational neglect," an offense that
would open the possibility of their child being seized by Child Protective
Services - a Hillary Clinton "village" institution straight from the pages
of the Gestapo. The child suffered serious side effects from the drug, but
parents no longer have the right to decide what is best for their children.

Tyrannical states assault the individual in the inner recesses of his
consciousness. He is not permitted to think certain thoughts or to express a
prohibited thought privately to anyone.

Recently, Janice Barton encountered a Spanish-speaking couple while leaving
a restaurant in Manistee, Mich. She turned to her mother and said, "I wish
these (ethnic slur) would learn to speak English." An off-duty deputy
sheriff overheard the private remark, followed the woman to her car and
noted her tag number. Janice Barton was sentenced to 45 days in jail for her
thought

STRAIGHT TALK FROM TEXAS
by Beaver Cole ([EMAIL PROTECTED])  A HREF="http://www.the-oil-patch.com"
www.the-oil-patch.com/A

PEOPLE, PEOPLE - PLEASE!!  You have got to get focussed.  The government is
giving you another spin.  I do not defend oil companies and I do not
represent the organization OPEC.  I only wish to give the credit of "PUMP
PRICES" to the proper authority.

In Texas we are currently paying 20 cents per gallon on gasoline for STATE
TAX, and we are paying 18.7 cents per gallon for FEDERAL TAX.  That is a
combined tax rate of 38.7 cents PER GALLON on gasoline.  Pump 10 gallons and
you have paid $3.87 in tax regardless of the price of the fuel, currently
available for around $1.07 + TAX ($1.45).  Pump 10 gallons at $1.072 totaling
$10.72 and pay $3.87 tax on that $10.72 purchase which now becomes a $14.59
purchase (10 X $1.459 = $14.59).

In Texas we are currently paying 20 cents per gallon on diesel fuel for STATE
TAX, and we are paying 24.4 cents per gallon for FEDERAL TAX.  That is a
combined tax rate of 44.4 cents PER GALLON on diesel fuel.  Pump 10 gallons
and you have paid $4.44 in tax regardless of the price of the fuel.
Currently available for around $1.21 + TAX ($1.65).  Pump 10 gallons at $1.21
totaling $12.10 and pay $4.44 tax on that $12.10 purchase which now becomes a
$16.59 purchase (10 X $1.659= $16.59).

Each State will vary on its taxes.  It's also up to you to find out if you
are paying any special environmental taxes, as well as city or county taxes.

The government has done nothing to earn more than the oil companies.  They
have nothing invested!  They did not take part in the cost of exploration.
They did not invest in the production nor the expenses incurred for
production.  They did not invest in the refining of the product nor the
expenses to do refining.  They did not invest in the marketing of the
product, nor the expenses for marketing.  The only thing the government did
was sit on it's FAT BEHIND and count the TRILLIONS and TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS
rolling in.  They TAXED the product through every stage of its development
(Natural gas production tax, Oil production tax, and Utility taxes), and
still held out its hand for more as your hand touched the pump.  The State
and the FEDS both make more per gallon than the oil companies and their
subsidiaries.  What we need to see is the ACTUAL PRICE posted on the signs,
thus allowing the consumer to knowingly pay the tax.

Now, I do believe in the very, very near future we will see and experience
the effect of the major oil companies' investments in building refineries in
foreign countries.  Currently we are shipping crude oil to the United States
and doing the refining here in the States.  I think this will change soon.
The oil companies will operate at a greater profit margin: less government
regulation, less taxes, and cheap labor.  By shipping a refined product from
overseas the American refineries will become as extinct as the American steel
mills.  And the higher the value of the product being shipped in will also
increase the governments intake, and place America's dependence on foreign
nations.  And before you say this cannot happen nor never will, let me tell
you that any nation who would make its citizens docile by injecting fluoride
into their water systems, or using its citizens as test rats, turn its
monetary system over to a private banking cartel, pledge its support to and
for One World Government, fraudulently coercing people out of their money
through the guise of unconstitutional income tax, allow every branch of its
government to become vile and corrupt, and place the people under
dictatorship through presidential executive orders, will and can do whatever
it wants to.

Now, back to oil and taxes.  I'm sorry I got sidetracked.

According to the Texas State Comptroller of Public Accounts - Carole Keeton
Rylander - the State of Texas reported that the State of Texas collected
$488,582,960.00 in 1999 for natural gas production tax.  In 1998 they
collected $574,584,435.00.  The State of Texas collected $210,812,798.00 in
1999 for oil production tax.  The State of Texas collected $265,797,547.00 in
1999 for utility taxes.  In 1998 they collected $241,739,264.00.

The State of Texas has a $5 TRILLION++ SURPLUS!  The State of Texas could
operate indefinitely without charging another cent of tax on anything.  The
government could sustain itself just off the interest and investments of the
$5 TRILLION +.

Do you folks realize when gasoline pump prices fell to 88 cents the tax
remained at its current level?  Do you realize how many gallons of gasoline
and diesel are pumped nationwide day to day, week to week, month to month,
year to year???  TRILLIONS AND TRILLIONS of gallons.  Where does this money
go?  You say highways and bridges?  Hardly!

Oh, and by the way, the federal government collects anywhere from 13 to 18

ENERGY CZAR BILL: The nation is in a state of high anxiety over the rising
price of oil, and that anxiety could have dire consequences for Al Gore in
the election. Bill Clinton to the rescue! After much soul-searching (that is,
after much analysis about how the decision would play in public opinion
polls), Energy Czar Bill has decided to release 30 million barrels of oil
from the nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). You didn't know that the
election of Al Gore was a national security necessity? It must be, because
the purpose of the SPR, created following the Arab oil embargo of 1974-74, is
to protect the nation from disruptions of oil supplies that might harm our
national security, such as might occur from a Middle East war. Thirty million
barrels of oil sounds like a lot, but abstract numbers can be deceiving, so
some perspective is needed.

According to the International Energy Agency, the total current world
production of oil is about 76.5 million barrels per day (b/d). The U.S. uses
about 19 million b/d. Clinton's SPR gambit therefore represents about 9.4
hours of the world's current oil production, and will supply the nation with
37.9 hours worth of oil. Will this make any difference? The consensus of
opinion is that such a small amount will have a negligible practical effect
in reducing oil prices. But pundit opinion also claims that release of oil
from the SPR will have a large psychological effect, because it demonstrates
this administration's willingness to intervene; that is, this
administration's willingness to try to manipulate prices and distort free
markets for political gain. According to Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers,
he and Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan believe that using the
nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve in this way is ".a major and substantial
policy mistake." Clinton, Gore, and Energy Secretary Richardson adamantly
deny that this decision was in any way politically motivated. The new oil
should be refined and available to consumers about a week or two before the
November election.

In defense of the oil release from the SPR, it has been said that this is not
really a manipulation of a free market, because there really isn't a free
world market in oil, since the amount of oil drilled and pumped is regularly
expanded and contracted -- ie: manipulated -- by OPEC. If this is the
Clinton/Gore administration's definition, then it could equally be said that
this administration has been manipulating the oil market since they came into
office. But their manipulation has consistently been toward the downside,
restricting the supply. This administration and its environmentalist friends
have waged a constant campaign to close down existing off-shore oil drilling
(and Gore has made a campaign promise of more of the same); and in the
largest single restriction of supply, has refused to allow oil exploration or
drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). The U.S. Department
of Interior estimates that ANWR contains between 4 and 12 billion barrels of
recoverable oil, and less than 2000 acres out of the 17.5 million acres of
ANWR would eventually be affected by drilling. But that exploration and
drilling has been blocked by the Clinton/Gore administration because of their
professed concern over the impact on the local caribou (Arctic caribou herds
in the Prudhoe Bay area have increased between 300% and 400% since the
opening of the Alaska pipeline), despite the advocacy of drilling by the
Arctic Slope Regional Corporation, an Alaskan company that was formed to
represent the native Inupiat of the North Slope.

One has to wonder just how stupid Gore thinks the American voters are. The
Clinton/Gore administration has pared back our own sources of oil (domestic
production has fallen 17% since 1992), and we have grown increasingly
dependent on foreign imports (since Clinton/Gore took office, our oil imports
have increased 34%; today we import 56% of our oil, compared to 35% during
the 1973-74 oil embargo). Then he has the gall to proclaim that if elected,
"I will work toward the day when we are free forever of the dominance of big
oil and foreign oil." Even his friends at the Washington Post called that
sort of demagoguery "a sleazy tactic". And despite his pledge to reduce
dependence on foreign oil, Gore attacked Bush's proposal on Friday to do
exactly that by opening up the ANWR, calling it "bad energy policy". All of
the foreign oil that Clinton and Gore have forced us to depend upon comes to
us by oil tanker, which Gore apparently considers "good" energy policy. Does
anyone remember the Exxon Valdez? There is a far greater risk of
environmental disaster from an oil tanker spill than from domestic oil
drilling and shipping the oil to refineries over land via pipelines.

Report: Russia, China join forces against US

Report: Russia, China join forces against US


 WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 (UPI) -- A congressional report has warned that
Russia and China have grown closer recently in order to pursue a joint goal
of reducing U.S. power and influence around the world, the Washington Times
said Saturday.

 The report, drafted by a group of House Republican analysts that blamed
the growing alliance on the Clinton administration's "mismanagement" of U.S.
policy toward Russia, has had the effect of turning Moscow toward China in a
partnership on arms sales that dovetails with desires to increase military
capabilities.

 "The sale of increasingly sophisticated Russian weaponry and technology to
(China), and the establishment of close security cooperation between Beijing
and Moscow, calls into question the fundamental prediction under-girding
much of the Clinton administration's security planning: that the United
States will face no peer competitor in the military field during the next
two decades," the report said.

 Russia and China have also been cooperating recently in areas such as
intelligence, and apparently desire to reduce U.S. influence in the Pacific.

 Rep. Curt Weldon, R-Penn., a member of the House GOP panel that received
the report, said the White House muffed a chance in 1992 to create a formal
security alliance with Russia, and that Moscow decided to go elsewhere for
such a partnership.

 The alliance between Moscow and Beijing was cemented, the newspaper said,
when a U.S. bomb struck the Chinese embassy in Belgrade during the Kosovo
air campaign, and when NATO expanded its membership over Moscow's
objections.

 "We drive Russia and China together," Weldon told the Times. "The level of
high-technology weapons transfers has never been higher."

 SPAIN:
Bomb Causes Minor Damage To Madrid Office
Police said an explosion caused minor damage and no injuries at
an office of the ruling Popular Party in Madrid. A leftist group was
blamed for the bomb that went off on Saturday. A police
spokesman said a woman called police after the explosion to say
GRAPO, a group with apparent anarchist leanings, planted the
bomb in the office in Madrid's Hortaleza neighborhood. Nobody was
in the building at the time of the explosion.
The bomb, with an estimated 3.3 pounds of explosive material, was
left in the office doorway and a witness told police he saw two men
running from the scene shortly before the blast. The pre-dawn
explosion was the fifth in three days blamed on GRAPO.
On Friday, two men and a woman reportedly planted a bomb in a
trash bin in the Barcelona office of El Mundo, one of Spain's leading
newspapers. The building was evacuated. When the device
exploded, it injured two police officers who had rushed to the scene.
GRAPO has never publicly stated clearly its political aims although
it is believed to go after what it considers to be right-wing and
capitalist targets. Its name -- October First Anti-fascist
Resistance Group -- comes from October 1, 1975, the date of the
group's first major attack in which it killed four policemen in reprisal
for the execution of two suspected Basque separatists and three
anarchists belonging to FRAP, a predecessor group of GRAPO.

 ISRAELI SNIPERS TARGET CIVILIANS AND MEDICAL PEOPLE

"Horrible days indeed I did not write any column...because
in such days all I can produce are shouts and frustration --
murderers! keeps repeating in my mind  I will nevertheless
try to send you later today some more coherent words."

MER - Washington - 10/1/00:  This anguished comment just received from an Israeli
Professor associated with MER. And the following updates just received from The
Union of Palestinian Medical Relief Committees, three of whose workers have today
been targeted by Israeli snipers.  Also remember that many persons who are not
severely injured do not go to hospitals for fear the Israelis may find them and
subsequently interrogate them, and thus are not recorded in the statistics.


THREE AID WORKERS SHOT BY ISRAELI SNIPERS

October 1, 2000, 4:30 PM:  Three UPMRC First Aid Workers have been shot
by Israeli snipers using high-velocity ammunition.  Suheila Abdel-Rahman, a
UPMRC health worker, and two volunteers, Bashir Bargouthi and Ashraf Bisht
were assisting the injured at the junction near the City Inn Hotel in Ramallah.
All three wore vests clearly identifying them as medical personnel.


  ISRAELI FORCES STILL FIRING AT CIVILIANS

October 1, 2000, 4:00 PM:  The Israeli army and police continue using
deadly force against Palestinian civilians throughout the West Bank, Gaza
Strip, and East Jerusalem for the fourth day in a row. Palestinian deaths
and injuries continue to mount as Israeli forces fire live high-velocity
ammunition, rubber-coated steel bullets, and tear gas indiscriminately into
crowds of protesters.

The number of casualties are alarming:
*   At least 25 Palestinians are dead.
*   Over 750 are injured.
*   Fourteen remain in critical condition.

Attacks on civilians have been especially brutal in the Gaza Strip, where
12-year old Rami Al-Dura was killed while under Israeli attack. Television
cameras recorded the boy and his father, Jamal Al-Dura, trying to shield
themselves from the hail of bullets. The father sustained critical injuries
while trying to protect his son, but the army kept shooting until Rami was
fatally wounded. Doctors are currently trying to remove a bullet from
Jamal’s spine to prevent paralysis. Ambulance driver Ghassan Al-Balbisi, was
shot to death by the same group of snipers while trying to reach the boy and
his father.

These events are a clear indication of the force the Israeli army is
employing in their continued attacks against unarmed Palestinian civilians.

Who's Who in the Jim Garrison Case






Jim Garrison


The hero of Oliver Stone's extraordinary film, JFK, New Orleans District
Attorney Jim Garrison (portrayed by Kevin Costner) believed that the John F.
Kennedy assassination had been the work of CIA personnel, anti-Castro Cuban
exiles, homosexuals, and ultra right-wing activists. "My staff and I solved
the case weeks ago," Garrison announced in February 1967. "I wouldn't say
this if we didn't have evidence beyond a shadow of a doubt." When Garrison
brought businessman Clay Shaw to trial, however, no such evidence
materialized. Jury foreman Sidney Hebert even said he thought more highly of
the Warren Report after the trial than before. Today, most reputable
conspiracy-oriented authors have denounced Garrison as a complete fraud.

"Back" button to return.




Lee Harvey Oswald


As depicted in JFK, the accused assassin (given an aptly enigmatic
performance in Stone's film by Gary Oldman) spent the summer of 1963 in New
Orleans. Jim Garrison theorized that Oswald's image as a loner and a Marxist
was merely a front, and that he had been set up to take the fall in an
assassination plot involving New Orleans residents. Many conspiracy theorists
continue to believe so.




David Ferrie


Memorably portrayed in JFK by Joe Pesci, David Ferrie (above right, with Bay
of Pigs veteran Julian Buznedo) was a highly eccentric pilot and scholar who
drove from New Orleans to Houston the night of the assassination, on vacation
with two friends. Though the trip was thoroughly investigated by the New
Orleans Police Department, the Houston Police, the FBI, and even the Texas
Rangers, Garrison was convinced it had something to do with JFK's death. When
Ferrie died on February 22, 1967, Garrison quickly labeled him "one of
history's most important individuals."




Jack Martin


Jack S. Martin (Jack Lemmon in Stone's JFK) came forward the day after the
assassination with a variety of tales about Dave Ferrie, such as the claim
that Ferrie "may have hypnotized Oswald and planted a post-hypnotic
suggestion that he kill the President." Martin, born Edward Stewart Suggs,
was no Jack Lemmon -- he was a diagnosed sociopath and admitted alcoholic
with a rap sheet and a history of furnishing false information to the
authorities, and he nursed a burning grudge against former pal Dave Ferrie.




W. Guy Banister


In 1963, former FBI Special Agent in Charge Guy Banister was a private
investigator, ultra right-wing activist, and associate of David Ferrie's,
with an office just around the corner from 544 Camp Street, an address
inexplicably stamped by Lee Oswald on a batch of pro-Castro literature that
summer. As depicted in Stone's movie (with Ed Asner in the role of the
ex-G-man) Jim Garrison believed that Oswald and Banister must have been
working together.




David Lewis


David Franklin Lewis was a roommate of Jack Martin's who'd been discharged
from the Navy for "psychiatric" reasons. He tried to bolster Martin's tales,
but ended up only an embarrassment to Garrison, which is presumably why he's
left out of Stone's film. (In an attempt to boost his credibility, for
example, he staged a fake assassination attempt on himself. A polygraph
examination indicated deception and he confessed.) Oddly enough, when the DA
claimed that he had "solved the case," his "evidence beyond a shadow of a
doubt" consisted of the statements of Jack Martin and David Lewis -- and
nothing else.




Dean Andrews


Dean Adams Andrews, Jr. (John Candy in JFK) was the jive-talking attorney who
told the Warren Commission that he'd been asked by a "Clay Bertrand" to
represent Lee Oswald in Dallas. He described "Bertrand" as a "swinging cat"
who occasionally guaranteed fees for some of his homosexual clients. Neither
federal nor local authorities were able to locate any trace of a "Clay
Bertrand" in New Orleans.




Clay Shaw


A successful businessman, playwright, and pioneer of restoration in New
Orleans' French Quarter, Clay Shaw (Tommy Lee Jones in Stone's film) was Jim
Garrison's candidate for the elusive "Clay Bertrand." Garrison's evidence?
Shaw was a homosexual, the DA observed, and his first name was Clay. Shaw
adamantly denied being "Bertrand," insisted he'd never met Lee Oswald, and
strenuously denied having anything to do with the death of the man he called
"a splendid president." "If there was any one person in New Orleans who
believed in John F. Kennedy," a friend of his remarked, "it was Clay Shaw."




Eugene Clair Davis


When Dean Andrews refused to name Clay Shaw as "Clay Bertrand" to the Orleans
Parish Grand Jury, he was charged with perjury. He then

Iraqi delegation in Belgrade
Sunday, 1 October 2000 1:51 (ET)
Iraqi delegation in Belgrade
 LONDON, Sept. 30 (UPI) - As a beleaguered Slobodan Milosevic
ponders his next move to thwart calls that he step down, a
delegation of Iraqi officials is in Belgrade composed of what The
Telegraph Sunday said are Saddam Hussein's senior intelligence
officials.
 They will advise the Serbian leader how to survive, the newspaper
said, as Milosevic comes under strong pressure from his wife to
flee.
 The delegation is composed of Iraq's minister of the interior and the
deputy head of Iraqi intelligence, along with two senior members of
the Ba'ath party and one from the so-called Olympic Committee,
the organization run by Saddam's son Uday to look after his
father's security and propaganda, the newspaper said.
 The report said Milosevic's wife Mira wants to avoid the fate of
Romania's Nicolae and Elena Ceausesu, machined gunned to
death after their 1989 overthrow, but Milosevic himself is
determined to remain in power.
 The newspaper said the Iraqi delegation traveled unnoticed into
Serbia last week and could help Milosevic flee through Nato troops,
who are under orders to seize the Serbian leader.
 Milosevic Monday will meet a delegation from Russia, presumed
to be preparing the way for a visit from Russian Foreign Minister
Igor Ivanov.
Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Clinton
Saturday spent 35 minutes on the telephone discussing Milosevic.
U.S. officials afterward said they were discussing a peaceful
resolution of the situation in Belgrade.
 The Itar-Tass news service reported Saturday that a Russian
foreign ministry envoy already in Yugoslavia, Vladimir Chizhov,
denied remarks attributed to him in a conversation with
Montenegro's foreign minister, to the effect that Milosevic had been
warned not to use force to impose his will on voters.
 Milosevic' administration has said a runoff election next weekend
will decide whether he stays or goes and that claims the voters
already decided the matter with a sufficient margin is false.

Document: Nazis Plotted Post-WWII Return

NEW YORK (Reuter) - Realizing they were losing the war in
1944, Nazi leaders met top German industrialists to plan a secret
post-war international network to restore them to power,
according to a newly declassified U.S. intelligence document.

The document, which appears to confirm a meeting historians
have long argued about, says an SS general and a representative
of the German armaments ministry told such companies as Krupp and
Roehling that they must be prepared to finance the Nazi party
after the war when it went underground.

They were also told ``existing financial reserves in foreign
countries must be placed at the disposal of the party so that a
strong German empire can be created after the defeat.''

The document, detailing an August 1944 meeting, was obtained
Friday from the World Jewish Congress, which has been working
with the Senate Banking Committee and the Holocaust Museum to
determine what happened to looted Jewish money and property in
the Second World War.

As a result of the probe, thousands of documents from
''Operation Safehaven'' have been made public. The operation was
a U.S. intelligence effort to track how the German government
used Swiss banks during the war to hide looted Jewish assets.

The three-page document, released by the National Archives,
was sent from Supreme Headquarters of the Allied Expeditionary
Force to the U.S. secretary of state in November 1944. It
described a secret meeting at the Maison Rouge (the Red House
Hotel) in Strasbourg, occupied France, on Aug. 10, 1944. The
source for the report was an agent who attended and ``had worked
for the French on German problems since 1916.''

Jeffrey Bale, a Columbia University expert on clandestine Nazi
networks, said historians have debated whether such a meeting
could have taken place because it came a month after the attempt
on Adolf Hitler's life, which had led to a crackdown on
discussions of a possible German military defeat.

Bale said the Red House meeting was mentioned in Nazi hunter
Simon Wiesenthal's 1967 book ``The Murderers Among Us'' and again
in a 1978 book by French Communist Victor Alexandrov, ''The SS
Mafia.''

A U.S. Treasury Department analysis in 1946 reported that the
Germans had transferred $500 million out of the country before
the war's end to countries such as Spain, Switzerland,
Lichtenstein, Portugal, Argentina and Turkey where it was used to
buy hundreds of companies.

"As soon as the (Nazi) party becomes strong enough to
re-establish its control over Germany, the industrialists will be
paid for their efforts and cooperation by concessions and
orders,'' the intelligence document said.

The meeting was presided over by a ``Dr Scheid,'' described as
an SS Obergruppenfuhrer (general) and director of Hermsdorff 
Schonburg Company. Attending were representatives of seven German
companies including Krupp, Roehling, Messerschmidt, and
Volkswagenwerk and officals of the ministries of armaments and
the navy.

The industralists were from companies with extensive interests
in France and Scheid is quoted as saying the battle of France was
lost and ``from now ... German industry must realize that the war
cannot be won and it must take steps in preparation for a
post-war commercial campaign.''

He said German industry must make contacts and alliances with
foreign firms and lay the groundwork for borrowing considerable
sums in foreign countries. He cited the Krupp company's sharing
of patents with U.S. companies so that they would have to work
with Krupp.

A representative of the armaments ministry then presided over
a smaller second meeting with Scheid and representatives of Krupp
and Roehling, who were told the war was lost and would continue
only until the unity of Germany was guaranteed. He said they must
prepare themselves to finance the Nazi party when it went
underground.

The intelligence report added that the meetings signaled a new
Nazi policy ``whereby industralists with government assistance
will export as much of their capital as possible.''

Sybil Milton, senior historian at Washington's Holocaust
Museum, said it has long been known that the Nazis planned to do
something after the war and the document's importance

The CIA OWNS The Media!

My Apology to the Media
by Robert Lederman

Boy, do I feel stupid. I've been blaming hard-working
reporters for biased coverage of the West Nile Virus issue,
their silence on the Manhattan Institute's Nazi-CIA-
Eugenics link and for refusing to report on the Bush
family's close connection to Hitler. In my naiveté I was
implying that the CIA was somehow influencing their
coverage.

How ignorant can one person get?

Now I know better. After following a series of leads
starting from an obscure article found on the internet the
whole issue is much clearer and I can announce my findings.

The media is not influenced by the CIA -
the media IS the CIA.

Not that I can claim any credit for this insight. There are
hundreds of carefully researched articles and even entire
books about this subject-not to mention a Congressional
report specifically about it.

What began the process of pulling the blinders from my eyes
was one sentence in a press release announcing Ronald
Reagan's nomination of William Casey-the founder of the
Manhattan Institute-to be his Director of the CIA.

The release mentioned that among Mr. Casey's many
accomplishments was that he ran the Reagan campaign,
conducted secret intelligence operations during WWII [with
Nazi ally and board member of I.G. Farben, Allen Dulles]
was the chair of Operation Rescue [a CIA front which helped
thousands of former Nazis emigrate to the U.S.], and
manipulated the stock market as chair of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. It went on to note that Casey was also
the lead counsel [and as I later found out-top stockholder]
in Capital Cities, the communications company that owned
ABC until it was bought
by Disney in 1996. He held that textbook example of a
conflict of interest position while serving as CIA
director.

Following that lead I found that many of Capital Cities
founders were also formerly involved in intelligence, many
of them having worked with Casey under Allen Dulles-the
first CIA director.

In other words, ABC was owned by the CIA during the Gulf
War and throughout the Reagan, Bush and much of the Clinton
administrations. It was bought in 1996 by Disney, a company
with many allegations of its own to having a CIA-mind
control connection, whose creator had long been considered
an FBI informer. Perhaps that explains why Manhattan
Institute poster boy for a police state Rudy Giuliani's
staged radio show is on WABC.

Okay, you say, so ABC was owned by the CIA-that still
leaves two other major networks  and thousands of
newspapers and radio stations that aren't, right? CBS and
NBC are owned by Westinghouse and General Electric, the
nation's two top suppliers of military hardware,
satellites, nuclear reactors and spy equipment. One might
be excused for imagining a government connection there as
well.

According to an article by investigative reporter Carl
Bernstein-"The CIA and the Media", Rolling Stone,
10/20/77-prominent US media owners and journalists who have
knowingly worked for the CIA include William Paley (CBS),
Arthur Sulzberger (NY Times), Henry Luce (Time/Life),
William Buckley (National Review), Ben Bradlee (Washington
Post), and hundreds of others.

"By the early 1950s," writes former Village Voice  reporter
Deborah Davis in Katharine the Great, "Frank Wisner [head
of Allen Dulles' CIA clandestine operation to bring
thousands of top Nazis to America] 'owned'  respected
members of the New York Times, Newsweek, CBS and other
communications vehicles, plus at least four to six hundred
reporters, according to a former CIA analyst." This CIA
network of top U.S. media contacts was called Operation
Mockingbird and was directly overseen by CIA director Allen
Dulles, the Nazis' number one coordinator between American
corporations and the Third Reich.

"You could get a journalist cheaper than a good call girl,
for a couple hundred dollars a month." CIA operative
discussing with Philip Graham, editor Washington Post, on
the availability and prices of journalists willing to
peddle CIA propaganda and cover stories. From: "Katherine
The Great," by Deborah Davis, New York: Sheridan Square
Press, 1991.

In a 1988 speech at CIA headquarters, Washington Post
publisher Katherine Graham said, "We live in a dirty and
dangerous world. There are some things the general public
does not need to know and shouldn't. I believe democracy
flourishes when the government can take legitimate steps to
keep its secrets, and when the press can decide whether to
print what it knows." -Quoted in Journalism and the CIA:

--Quoted from Film Threat magazine
I must confess that I have been fascinated with conspiracy theories ever
since I was a child and came across a tattered copy of the Warren Commission
Report (a superb work of fiction, I might add). While my sixth-grade peers
were busy reading the entire Hardy Boys Mystery Series, I was working my way
through such mighty tomes as Edward J. Epstein’s Legend: The Secret World of
Lee Harvey Oswald and Penn Jones’ three-volume Forgive My Grief. From the
Kennedy assassination, I moved on to other related topics such as the Bay of
Pigs, CIA acid experiments, Malcolm X, MLK, RFK, Moongate, the Rockefeller
dynasty, Watergate, Jonestown and the Space Brothers.
What follows is a brief sample of some of the more unusual trivia, quotes and
musings that I have collected over the past 20 or so years. Warning: These
precious tidbits are guaranteed to alienate friends, co-workers and family

watch the room clear in record time.

STREETS OF PRAGUE FILLED IN PROTEST OF GLOBAL CAPITAL

Compiled by Eamon Martin

Asheville Global Report:
http://www.agrnews.org/

Prague, Czech Republic, Sept. 27— Tuesday September 26 (S26)
saw the outbreak of massive demonstrations against the
International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank annual
meeting held at the Prague Congress Center in the Czech
Republic this past week. Protesters from around the world
collectively besieged the summit with up to 20,000 people
maintaining a circular blockade of the conference facilities,
and some even gaining access to the heavily-guarded complex
itself. Protests were not only city wide, but worldwide with
solidarity actions occurring around the globe and reportedly
in 59 US cities alone. Both peaceful resistance and active
confrontations occurred with a single united voice: Shut down
the IMF - Shut down the World Bank.

Confrontations between Czech security and civil society began
before the day of demonstrations. In the days leading up to
the confrontation, Czech authorities at the border stopped
and prevented from entering the country, almost 300 people
with arrest records from previous anti-globalization rallies.
On Sunday a video crew of journalists arrived at the
Independent Media Center –a news-gathering office for
independent journalists— to find police illegally insisting
on checking the passports of everyone who arrived. The
independent media refused and responded by putting a dozen
cameras in the face of the officers and forcing them to
leave.

Also that day, protesters carrying white crosses staged
a mock funeral, saying thousands of children die every
day because of IMF and World Bank policies (pictured
left).

“Fifty years of oppression was enough,” said Sam
Kobia, an activist from Kenya calling for abolition of
the big international lending institutions. “Global economy
is a global apartheid.”

The demonstration, launched by anti-poverty/social justice
group Jubilee 2000, was intended to draw attention to its
claims that 19,000 children die each day as a result of
policies imposed by the International Monetary Fund and the
World Bank.

On Monday, plainclothes officers hauled away three protesters -
an American and two Poles - who had chained themselves to a
bridge after unfurling banners that read: “No IMF, WB, WTO! End
Corporate Rule!” (pictured right)

Earlier that day 1,500 people aboard a train which had been
stopped at the Czech-Austrian border for about 19 hours finally
arrived in Prague that morning at around 2am. Protesters from
groups across Italy, including Ya Basta!, explained that Czech
border police had initially tried to arrest four people on board.
The specially commissioned train had collected passengers in
Naples, Rome, Milan and Venice. The train had passed without
delay through Italy and Austria but encountered difficulties in
the Czech Republic when officers in riot gear attempted to
arrest four people whose names had appeared on a “black list.”
Fellow activists successfully challenged the action by forming
a defensive human chain to ensure that police officers were
unable to remove the four people. After 300 protesters
affiliated with the umbrella group Initiative Against Economic
Globalization marched to the Interior Ministry and said they
wouldn’t leave until Czech officials allowed the Italians to
enter, the police complied.

On Tuesday in Prague, people started gathering in Namesti Miru
square at 9am. The square was packed with a great variety of
groups from many places, speaking an equally great number of
languages. Various artistic events unfolded including a massive
sound system, a vast inflatable globe and numerous, multilingual
banners expressing discontent with the IMF/World Bank.
Surrounding them, however, downtown Prague was deserted, with
schools and many shops closed and boarded up, and police on
every street corner.

At around 12 o’clock, the demonstration split into three
different groups - yellow, blue and pink - and started to
approach the conference center where the IMF/World Bank
meeting was taking place. The ‘yellow’ march took the main
route to the big bridge leading to the conference complex.
Led by Italian and Spanish groups linked to the Ya Basta!
movement - dressed in white foam-padded overalls and carrying
heavy shielding - they approached lines of heavily armored
riot police occupying the bridge. About 60 protesters, well
protected in improvised gear made out of painters’ jumpsuits
padded with foam rubber and cardboard, formed the front lines
(pictured below). One woman even wrapped a doormat around her
waist for protection, while others wore motorcycle helmets or
hard hats. These demonstrators positioned themselves immediately
in front of the riot gear-clad police. They tried four times
to push through police lines. Police responded with batons,
while protesters used inner tubes to shield themselves from
their blows. For more than two hours, groups

Here's an interview wherein Major Jack Downing discusses his past
role in mind control experiments:

[Another gem, dating from the end of '98]

Q: So let us take on the issue of controlling the mind. Some of what you
were involved with centered on the issue of the human mind. Will,
values, consciousness, perception, etc were the puzzle-pieces you were
seeking to re-arrange.

Downing: I participated in numerous projects, because of my
expertise, which attempted to correct the "brainwashing gap" that we'd
convinced Congress existed between the U.S. and its Communist adversaries.
The gap didn't really exist, mind you, but events which transpired
between WWI and the Korean war convinced us that the human mind was
the next big battlefield.
There was a fantastic little paperback book that came out a long time
ago called "Brainwashing" written by a CIA-affiliated journalist named
Hunter, which made brainwashing out to be the invention of Chinese
communists. It was intended to scare Americans into
pressuring their congressional representatives into allocating more
money into mind-control research. . . and it worked. That same trick
also worked to get funding for a lot of similar projects. The media
has been the best ally for black ops.

Q: You had no issues about doing this stuff? I feel that you are almost
relishing the memories of better days, when funding was good, and
anything was possible.

Downing: Actually, that period slightly proceeded my tenure in this line
of work. I worked with people who would get almost tearfully wistful
remembering when it was all new, and the priorities of the Cold
War superceded such minor issues as human rights.

Q: So you, as you have stated elsewhere, were involved in some of the
research into the possibilities of LSD and other drugs in
unconventional warfare.

Downing: That was one of the things. I did that for a while. My
findings on that were not so promising. Others who did that sort of thing
got better results. After MKULTRA it was turned over to the "Nonlethal
Weapons" program and it was out of my hands. . . I was doing a lot with
indoctrination, interrogation, counterintelligence stuff. . . like how to
get captured personnel to divulge military secrets. That was much more
fruitful than the other thing. I think that drugs actually made people
more resistant to indoctrination. The drug programs tried to achieve the
opposite effects, but people, you know, would just get high, and ignore
the interrogators. So. . .we took the investigation in another direction.
The "Nonlethal Weapons" folks worked on how to use drugs just to
incapacitate troops, or make them question authority. I turned
my attention on ways to get confessions.

Q: It's a classic news item during wartime, that American POWs bravely
resisted giving away their secrets, risking torture and death in the
interests of patriotism. . .

Downing: Well, that's what we were trying to undermine. The old way
of interrogation, which is still used much of the time by police and less
sophisticated governments is torture. Fear. It works, but not always.
Following the example of religious cults, we developed a different, more
successful angle. No torture, no fear. The human mind is so malleable,
belief systems so fragile, why hurt people? The move in modern warfare is
bloodless victory. We really don't want to kill anyone unless we're in
a hurry. Better to conquer the loyalties and confidence of the enemy in
their ideologies. Then you have two armies fighting for you: your own, and
theirs. Better to cultivate sedition than to fertilize the fields with
blood.

Q: So, about the cults. What did you take from them?

Downing: Okay. So as I was saying. It is admittedly hard to
develop any weapon without the enemy using it too.
We cannot rely on our soldiers to keep secrets anymore. That is why
soldiers get such a compartmentalized picture of what they are doing.
And they are also given to believe totally inaccurate things about their
mission, so long as it does not interfere with their combat effectiveness.
So many Army and Air Force people are being released thinking they
have these secrets, about government collaboration with
aliens, or some other conspiracy poppycock.
They write books, the enemy reads them, and they think they have good
intelligence because it came from ex-armed forces.
The cults. What we got from them is the idea that you can get better
intelligence from people who believe in your mission. So, say we get a
POW, and we have a little time to work with him. It's not time-critical,
such as on the eve of an offensive

As a nation we were founded by Puritans.
Stern, disciplined, psychotic...
In time we covered up our origins.
Learned to have fun.
Learned to relax.
Our Founders had a sense of work ethic, belief in moral leadership and a
small almost forgotten quirk.
They believed that when evil occurred, it's source and it's enforcer were
within the society.
Native Americans believed in evil forces that resides far away, in some
mystical place.
Anglicans and Catholics fought demons in the outer fringes of towns.
But for Puritans evil was always in the hearts of their towns...
It wasn't far away and mystical...
It was here and deadly.
When each of us were brought forth into the world our parents were all told
almost the same thing...
We have conquered Nature...
We can now live without fear
All can be reasoned and all can be explained away.
And then our mothers while nursing us turned on TV
Learning with a certain amount of horror of a new disease called Grid.
In time it broke the boundaries of the homosexual community and crossed over
into collective society.
It spread like fire, and in time acquired a new name... AIDS.
The victims fell fast and furious.
The disease was mysterious.
And the explanation of it was tedious and complicated.
Few sitting at home believed the flow charts that traced back the existence
of this new unseen killer to some monkey in West Africa.
Like our Puritan ancestors, we could not believe in the far off mystical evil
born in Africa...
We found it easier to embrace the idea of an evil madman living among us
concocting hideous plans to wipe out humanity.
Numerous conspiracies grew.
Some were laughable.
Some were scary.
Some were thought provoking.
This site is a collection of explanations.
A loosely bound package of ordinary human beings attempting to explain the
irrational world with their own theories.
Welcome to humanity at it's worst.

[CTRL] Fwd: new ambassador to colombia

2000-10-01 Thread Kris Millegan





This profile of our new ambassador to Colombia appeared in this morning's
society section. Turns out she's from Arkansas ... woodenjano.

--Mara

High Profile: Anne Woods Patterson
PHYLLIS D. BRANDON
ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE

FORT SMITH -- Anne Patterson, a Fort Smith native, is the new ambassador to
Colombia. The job won't be just a cup of coffee.
While this South American nation is noted for its exports of java and
fresh flowers, it's the massive production of cocaine and the ensuing wealth
and power of the drug lords that will make this assignment challenging for
the State Department career diplomat.
In Bogota, the 5-foot-1 mother of two sons will leave her residence to go
to the embassy at a different time and by a different route every day -- all
the while surrounded by 13 bodyguards, some in unmarked vans in front and
behind her van.
Accompanying Patterson to Colombia will be a $1.3 billion drug package
from the U.S. government to help President Andres Pastrana eradicate illegal
drug production. The aid includes military hardware and will provide training
aimed at combating the armed groups that protect plantations producing 90
percent of the world's cocaine and a rising share of its heroin.
Implementation of the aid was accelerated by a brief visit Aug. 31 of
President Clinton, Cabinet members and 11 members of Congress to Cartegena,
Colombia.
"There has been drug trafficking insurgency in Colombia for years,"
Patterson says during an interview at her parents' Fort Smith home. "But two
things have happened in recent years that have changed the picture -- one is
the coca growing has exploded. [Cocaine comes from coca leaves.] When I
worked on these issues 10 years ago, most of the production was in Bolivia
and Peru and the Colombians were the processors, but now they are fully
integrated.
"The other issue is the link between the traffickers and the insurgents.
That's basically new over the past few years. They get the money and do
extortion and protection and such. Our job is to try and reduce this coca
production most immediately."
"Ten years ago," she adds, "you could go to Bolivia and there would be
coca leaves as far as the eye could see. It used to be the Colombians were
just on the high end, but they do everything now. What's happened is the coca
leaf production has gone up 20 percent in some parts of Colombia in one year.
That's just devastating."
Her security detail will be essential.
"People get killed in Colombia all the time," she says. "It's terrible.
People are leaving in huge numbers and journalists get killed and politicians
get killed."
Why would she pick this troubled place?
"Because this is a huge challenge, and I felt that I knew the issues
because I had worked on these issues before."
Patterson has just completed a three-year assignment as U.S. ambassador
to El Salvador. "This was a country that we got very emotionally invested
with," she says. "We wanted them to succeed. And they mostly have succeeded.
Every time you see the ex-guerillas talking to people that they had attacked
and people whose relatives had been kidnapped, that's hard. That's really
hard to put that all in the past and try to work together, but they've done a
very good job.
"The U.S. government has a lot of good programs there like the [U.S.
Agency for International Development] that [Helena native] Brady Anderson
runs," Patterson says. These programs are inexpensive, she explains, and help
many people by providing for food and child and maternal health.
"I really wanted Salvador to succeed, and we tried to do everything
possible to help them get there. Salvador is going to be a success story."
El Salvador was Patterson's first exposure to the media and anonymous
faces, which she found hard to get used to. "You have these groups of
reporters that follow you to every event. That's not easy, to be a public
figure," she says.
Patterson's first three-year assignment was in Equador, starting in 1974.
A souvenir of her tour includes the painting now hanging in her parents' home
and shown in the High Profile cover photo.
Returning to the United States, she was assigned to the State Department
in Washington as a Canadian trade officer. "I was and still am an economic
officer," she says. There she met David Patterson, who was working in a
parallel office on European trade issues. They had more than work in common:
He was also a native of Fort Smith.
A graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1964 and seven
years older than she, he had served in the Peace Corps in Colombia in 1966
and been in the foreign service in Iran. He had worked in Iran and Chile.
He'd never met Anne until they were stationed in Washington.
In 1979, Anne went to work for another Arkansan, Jim Cheek, on the
Nicaraguan desk in the State Department in Washington.
"That was almost the hardest job I have ever had before or since because

 THE WASHINGTON TIMES

 The tyranny within



 Paul Craig Roberts

  Tyranny is creeping up on us. If you don't believe it, consider the
 most prominent hallmarks of the Nazi and communist regimes, which sought to
 supplant democracy in the 20th century.
  In National Socialist Germany and the Soviet Union, there were no First
 Amendment rights. No one could voice an opinion contrary to the politically
 correct views enforced by the Gestapo and the KGB. Media and education were
 used to instill politically correct thinking and bring denunciation upon
 anyone who departed from politically correct thinking.
  This is precisely the situation that exists today in the vast majority
 of American colleges and universities. Verbal and facial expressions that
 are contrary to political correctness result in sensitivity training (a form
 of brainwashing) or expulsion for the offender, who may have done nothing
 more than laugh. If the source of mirth is an ethnic joke, a blonde joke or
 a hilarious claim by a multiculturalist, the hapless offender discovers that
 his constitutional protections do not exist.
  In Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union, there were victim groups that
 were championed and oppressor groups that were suppressed. In Germany, the
 "victims" were Aryans, who were said to be under the financial hegemony of
 Jews. In the Soviet Union, the hegemonic group was the bourgeoisie, who
 allegedly held sway over an oppressed proletariat. In both countries,
 victims were permitted to exercise violent language and actions against
 oppressors.
  In the United States today, white heterosexual able-bodied males
 constitute the hegemonic group. Everyone else is a member of a victim group.
  In Germany and the Soviet Union, the abstract and imaginary group roles
 of oppressor and victim were given a frightful reality by ideologues. Race
 and class categories became the basis for discrimination and new legal
 systems that favored victims' groups with preferences.
  On American campuses, multicultural ideology has revived the concepts
 of race and class oppression, and added new ones based on gender and sexual
 orientation. Men oppress women, and heterosexuals oppress homosexuals.
  According to multiculturalists, our culture and values reflect nothing
 but the arbitrary domination of society by white heterosexual males.
 University of Pennsylvania professor Alan Kors says that, thanks to
 multiculturalism, "half a century after the defeat of Nazism, we distinguish
 by blood and we equate blood with culture." We now think like Nazis and
 explain our society and culture in terms of race (and gender) hegemony.
  Tyrannical states attack the family. Both the Nazis and communists are
 infamous for state intrusions in family affairs. In the United States,
 similar bureaucratic and political intrusions come from family courts. Most
 Americans are unaware of the existence of these relatively new "courts."
 Howard University Professor Stephen Baskerville is the leading authority on
 these courts. He says family courts are "the most dangerous institution
 posing a threat to constitutional rights in our society. The only parallels
 are the ideological-bureaucratic dictatorships of the last century."
  Family courts claim immunity from the Constitution and from scrutiny by
 federal courts. Mr. Baskerville describes them as follows: "Their
 proceedings are secret and unrecorded. Their orders are enforced by
 bureaucratic police who do not wear uniforms and whose sole responsibility
 is to conduct surveillance over families and private lives. As such, these
 police are akin to secret police. By the very nature of their jurisdiction,
 these courts and police are the most intrusive and invasive arm of
 government, and yet they are accountable to virtually no one. Such an
 institution is intolerable in a free society."
  Recently a family court judge ordered the parents of a 7-year-old boy
 in Berne, N.Y., to put their child on Ritalin, a behavior-control drug. The
 alternative was to be found guilty of "educational neglect," an offense that
 would open the possibility of their child being seized by Child Protective
 Services — a Hillary Clinton "village" institution straight from the pages
 of the Gestapo. The child suffered serious side effects from the drug, but
 parents no longer have the right to decide what is best for their children.
  Tyrannical states assault the individual in the inner recesses of his
 consciousness. He is not permitted to think certain thoughts or to express a
 prohibited thought privately to anyone.
  Recently, Janice Barton encountered a Spanish-speaking couple while
 leaving a restaurant in Manistee, Mich. She turned to her mother and said,

 U.S. Policy Toward Colombia Fraught With Problems

Colombian soldiers arrive near a combat zone in the province of Risaralda,
recently attacked by leftist rebels. Government troops will be bolstered by
a controversial new U.S. aid package. (La Tarde/Reuters)

Commentary
By George F. Will

W A S H I N G T O N, Sept. 10 — President Clinton’s assurances that the
United States will not get involved in the Colombian civil war that the
United States is already involved in (with military personnel, equipment,
training, financing, intelligence) make sense if you think of the
helicopters as farm implements.
 The 60 transport and attack helicopters, and most of the other elements
in the recent $1.3 billion installment of U.S. aid, look warlike. However,
the administration says the aid is essentially agricultural. It is all about
controlling crops — particularly the coca fields that provide upward of 90
percent of the cocaine that reaches the American market.
 The law governing U.S. intervention includes this language: “The
president shall ensure that if any helicopter procured with funds under this
heading is used to aid or abet the operations of an illegal self-defense
group or illegal security cooperative, than such helicopter shall be
immediately returned to the United States.” Imagine how reliably this will
be enforced.
‘Peace Through Herbicides’
Conceivably, important U.S. interests are implicated in the Colombian
government’s fight with the more than 17,000-strong forces of Marxist
insurgency in the civil war, now in its fourth decade, that has killed
35,000 people and displaced 2 million in the last 10 years. Political
violence has killed 280,000 since the middle of the 19th century. Do makers
of U.S. policy understand this long-simmering stew of class conflict,
ideological war and ethnic vendettas?
 They advertise their policy as drug control through crop extermination.
The president, delivering the money that will buy military equipment, said:
“We have no military objective.” And: “Our approach is both pro-peace and
anti-drug.” As though the civil war and the anti-narcotics campaign can be
separated when the left-wing forces that control half the country are
getting hundreds of millions of dollars a year by protecting and taxing coca
fields.
 The U.S. policy — peace through herbicides — aims to neutralize the
left-wing forces by impoverishing them. But already those forces are
diversifying. The Wall Street Journal reports: “Armed with automatic rifles
and personal computers, guerrillas often stop traffic, check motorists’ bank
records, then detain anyone whose family might be able to afford a lucrative
ransom.” There are an average of seven kidnappings a day, and the Journal
reports that every morning Colombia’s largest radio network “links its 169
stations with its stations in Miami, New York, Panama and Paris. It opens
its lines to relatives of kidnap victims who broadcast messages they hope
will be heard by their missing loved ones.”
 Speaking of diversification, does anyone doubt that, in the extremely
unlikely event that Colombia is cleansed of the offensive crops, cultivation
of them will be promptly increased elsewhere? In spite of Colombia’s
efforts, coca cultivation increased 140 percent in the last five years,
partly because the United States financed the reduction of Bolivia’s coca
crop. However, the pressure on Colombia’s coca growers is “working”: Some of
them have planted crops (and the seeds of future conflicts) across the
border in Peru. And guerrillas have made incursions into Panama and Ecuador
for refuge. And the price of cocaine in the United States has plummeted for
two decades.

Senseless Policy
Will the United States ever learn? As long as it has a $50 billion annual
demand for an easily smuggled substance made in poor nations, the demand
will be served. An anecdote is apposite.
 A presidential adviser was fresh from persuading the French government
to smash the “French connection” by which heroin destined for America was
refined from Turkish opium in Marseilles. Boarding a helicopter to Camp
David to bring his glad tidings to President Nixon, the adviser, Pat
Moynihan, who then still had Harvard’s faith in government’s efficacy, found
himself traveling with Labor Secretary George Shultz, embodiment of
University of Chicago realism about powerful appetites creating markets in
spite of governments’ objections. When Moynihan (who tells this story) told
Shultz about his achievement in France, this conversation ensued.
 Shultz, dryly: “Good.”
 Moynihan: “No, really, this is a big event.”
 Shultz, drier still: “Good.”
 Moynihan: “I suppose you think that so long as there is a demand for
drugs, there will continue to be a supply.”
 Shultz: “You know, there’s hope for you yet.”
 That is more than can be confidently said for U.S. policy in Colombia,
which seems barren of historical sense. “The enduring

U.S. advises against overland travel in Bolivia
   WASHINGTON, Sept 29 (Reuters) - The United States on Friday advised
Americans to avoid travelling by land in Bolivia, where at least eight
Bolivians have been killed in the past two weeks in protests at government
policies. In parallel, the U.S. State Department said the demands and
tactics of the growers of coca, the primary ingredient in cocaine, who are
disrupting traffic are "destructive to Bolivia"s national interests." The
United States supports Bolivian President Hugo Banzer"s plan to rid the
country of illegal coca, it added. The plan has angered peasants who depend
on coca for their livelihood. The State Department said that the protests
have not specifically targeted Americans. But at least one foreigner, a
Canadian, was beaten when he left the hotel where 21 foreign tourists have
taken refuge in fear of the protesters. "Travel to any of the usual tourist
attractions, such as Copacabana on Lake Titicaca or Sorata, a favourite
destination for backpackers, is dangerous," it said. "U.S. citizens
travelling in Bolivia are strongly advised to avoid overland travel. Air
travel to Bolivia"s major cities has not been interrupted but U.S. citizens
are urged to monitor local news sources and to consult with the Embassy
before commencing travel," it added. The other statement said the United
States and the international community "fully support Bolivian President
Banzer"s Plan Dignidad to rid the country of illegal coca." "As President
Bill Clinton told President Banzer in New York (earlier this month), the
United States has matched word with deed in this support," it added. It
noted that the United States had forgiven Bolivia debt worth $450 during the
1990s and provides more than $40 million a year to help Bolivia fight the
drugs trade. Bolivia will also receive $110 million from the $1.3 billion
package allocated to support the Colombian government"s anti-drug campaign.
"The debt reduction process is well underway in Bolivia and the Government
of Bolivia has launched discussions ... on what can be done to alleviate
poverty. We believe these are responsible actions on the part of the Banzer
government. "For these reasons, we believe both the demands and violent
tactics of the coca growers are destructive to Bolivia"s national
interests," added the statement. It urged Bolivians to support Banzer"s call
for communication and reconciliation.

Pope names Philadelphia heiress as 2nd U.S.-born saint

By ALESSANDRA RIZZO
The Associated Press
10/1/00 1:13 PM
VATICAN CITY (AP) -- Katharine Drexel grew up the privileged daughter of a
19th-century Philadelphia banker. She lived in mansions. Dressed for balls.
Traveled the world.

Then, at 30, Drexel finally got to do what she had always wanted to: taking
a vow of poverty, she founded her own order of sisters, devoting her life --
and her dlrs 20 million inheritance -- to founding schools for American
Indians and blacks.

"She knew she was wealthy for a reason: to help poor people," said Catherine
Andrew Lewis of Brooklyn, an alumni of Drexel-founded schools and one of the
faithful looking on in St. Peter's Square Sunday as Pope John Paul II
decreed sainthood for Drexel.

The American heiress-turned-nun was one of 123 Catholics canonized Sunday.
Gospel singers from Xavier University in New Orleans, founded by Drexler,
attended the ceremony.

"Drexel is an excellent example of that practical charity and generous
solidarity with the less fortunate that has long been the distinguishing
mark of American Catholics," the pontiff said during a rain-soaked ceremony
that drew tens of thousands.

Her life brought about "a growing awareness of the need to combat all forms
of racism through education and social services," John Paul said.

Drexel was born in 1858 to a Philadelphia banking magnate, the business
partner of J.P. Morgan. Her uncle was the founder of the Drexel University.

Shunning both the label and the life of a socialite, she took little note of
her gala debut on the social scene and turned down offers of marriage before
taking the veil.

Her canonization was the first of a native-born American in 25 years.
Hundreds came from the United States -- from family members to members of
American Indian tribes -- to see it.

They included Amanda Wall, a 8-year-old from Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

Born deaf in both ears, the girl gained her hearing at 4 after her mother
prayed to Drexel. The Vatican certified the episode as a miracle and
attributed to Drexel's intercession, a requirement in her naming to the
sainthood.

Drexel founded the missionary order of the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament
in 1891, four years after Pope Leo XIII encouraged her to do so to bring
Catholicism to the poor of the American West.

"We have to be thankful that she has let this part of America live better
lives," said Connie Terracina, a retired teacher who had been educated by
the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament.

Stories of Drexel's poverty and self-denial became legendary in her
lifetime.

Her order preserves a jar of pencils she had used down to the nubs. She wore
shoes down to paper-thin soles and ate the leftovers off other nuns' plates.

"I remember her as being a very warm and honest person, very sincere,"
recalled Lewis, who was a student at the Holy Providence school in Bensalem,
Pennsylvania, in 1946.

Drexel, then 87, was confined to a wheelchair she had fashioned from a
folding chair  another sign of her penury.

"She really loved us and wanted us to be well-educated," said Lewis.

In all, Drexel founded more than 100 schools and missions for American
Indians and blacks. Most of her work was in the Southwest, where she used to
travel frequently to monitor the construction of the schools or inspect
potential mission sites.

In 1915, she founded the Xavier University in New Orleans for black
Catholics.

Drexel died in 1955 at 96 and was buried in her order's mother house in
Bensalem. Her shrine has become a major pilgrimage site.

Drexel is the second American-born saint. The first was Elizabeth Ann Seton,
who also founded an order in the early 1800s and was canonized in 1975.

The pope  the leading saint-maker in the history of church  clearly
values canonizations to raise the profile of the church in a particular
country or to show an array of role models for Roman Catholics today.

[CTRL] How it's done: The continuing breakup of Yugoslavia.

2000-10-01 Thread Nurev Ind Research

-Caveat Lector-

10/1/00

Here we go again. The piece below is PURE propaganda.

This is the method that was used by  NATO and its allied
secret intelligence agencies in the USA, Britain, and Germany
to fund, supply, arm, and train each of the Yugoslav provinces'
secessionist forces. The KLA being the most recent when the
West broke off Kosovo from Yugoslavia under the pretense of
" Humanitarian War." An oxymoron for morons.

It looks like The New World Order is about to do it again.
Look for drum beating from CNN, ITN, and of course the American
Corporate Media Whores.

Montenegro is next. No doubt about it.

Montenegro will be portrayed as a province yearning to breath free.
Never mind that independent polls have shown more than a 70% majority
of Montenegrins want to remain part of Yugoslavia, and that the
Yugoslav army is in its own country to defend against foreign backed
secessionists.

To put this in perspective so that even brain dead Americans can
understand it, this is like Mexico funding and arming Mexican Americans
in Texas who want to see texas returned to Mexico. Does the US government
have the right to keep its soldiers in Texas while a foreign government
is training and funding secessionist traitors? Do these troops have the
right to fight and kill the secessionists? If you answer yes, then DON'T
BE FOOLED AGAIN.

This is OUTRAGEOUS behavior on the part of the West. The Globalists
in the State Department and the United States of Europe can go into
any country in the world and do with it what they wish. That is, any
SMALL country in the world.

SAS trains Montenegrin police

A HIGHLY secretive SAS
mission in Montenegro
has spent the past six
months training the
Yugoslav republic's
elite special police
against terrorist
threats from Serbia,
writes Tom Walker.

The 1,500-strong
commando units of the
new Montenegrin
force, who wear
distinctive black
uniforms, are now a
common sight near
government buildings
and on Montenegro's borders. The commandos are
backed up by another 5,000 special police.

Neither the Montenegrins nor the British government have
admitted the presence of SAS trainers on Yugslav
territory, for fear of provoking a confrontation with the
Yugoslav army of President Slobodan Milosevic. Diplomats
say they believe the trainers, said to have been a squad
of be-tween four and eight, have now left after concern
for their safety.

The SAS trainers were experienced Balkan hands. Several
had assisted Nato's operation in Kosovo last year. "I saw
some familiar faces while I was wandering across a park
here. They saw me and dived behind a tree," said one
diplomat.

The British involvement with the Montenegrin police is
plain to see. More than 150 Land Rovers have been
im-ported in the past year. The Foreign Office said two
ex-port licences had been granted permitting civilian use.

Intelligence sources familiar with the police programme
run by the SAS said the trainers were based near Bar,
Yugoslavia's main port. The police have been given new
mountaineering, diving and parachuting skills, and some
officers are also be-lieved to have been given training in
Britain.

"They've turned the police into a sort of light infantry
militia-type outfit that can tackle any hijack or hostage
crisis, the sort of thing that Serbia might provoke here,"
said one diplomat. He said most of the police armaments
and uniforms came from America. The special police have
sub-machineguns, mortars and bazookas, but cannot
counter the heavy armoury of the Yugoslav army.

[CTRL] Russia'S Nuclear Scare Is Omen Source

2000-10-01 Thread Donald Park

-Caveat Lector-

Comrades:  There have been many, many reports of electrical fires,
breakdowns this entire year particularly in the former Soviet Union.  Among
these reports of necular facilities that bearly escape one mishap after
another wasn't Russia one of the countries most behind in any kind of
Y2K remediation?  "Death by 10,000 paper cuts!"

Russia'S Nuclear Scare Is Omen Source: Dayton Daily News Publication date:
2000-09-29 Arrival time: 2000-09-30

KREMLIN APPARATCHIKS WOULD have been proud. On Sept. 13, a Russian news
agency reported the scariest nuclear near-miss since Chernobyl by saying,
`The Beloyarsk nuclear power plant . . . restored its regular working regime
today after a major power cut that paralyzed the area last weekend.' Here's
the Scripps Howard News Service translation: A "nuclear catastrophe"
involving Russia's aging electrical grid was narrowly averted, but "such
close escapes could be expected with growing frequency.'

A short circuit in poorly maintained equipment may have sparked a sudden
reactor blackout. Before it was over, the reactor and a plutonium processing
plant had spiraled toward meltdown. And Russia reportedly came within half
an hour of plunging into another Chernobyl, the 1986 accident that fanned a
vast radioactive cloud across northeastern Europe and may have resulted in
up to tens of thousands of deaths.

This spring, President Clinton pledged substantial aid to Ukraine to help
close Chernobyl and replace the power it generated. Western nations may have
to consider a similar strategy for Russia, unpalatable as it may be. That
impoverished nation depends heavily on aging nuclear plants it lacks the
resources to maintain. Helping may be far less costly - and painful - than
coping with a major accident with global repercussions.

But Russian leaders also have a price to pay. To get the help that could
keep their country from nuclear disaster, they must be far more willing to
let others inspect their plants to assess potential dangers.

[CTRL] Fwd: Baran Day Care Abuse Case

2000-10-01 Thread Kris Millegan





The Boston Globe Magazine
October 1, 2000

Firm convictions

In other celebrated day-care sex cases, children told bizarre stories. The
Pittsfield children did not.

By David Mehegan

At first sight, not much about the Massachusetts Treatment Center for
sexually dangerous persons, a modern brick building in Bridgewater, suggests
a prison. It is quiet in the small, outer lobby. There are colorful cloth
wall hangings and a sort of Danish modern circular waiting bench. But a
visitor can't miss the heavy plate-glass window at the guards' station, the
airport-type metal detector, and the clock built into the wall above the
outside door, which, eerily, has numbers but no hands.
After passing through the detector, visitors enter a security lock: A steel
door from the outer lobby closes behind before another opens ahead into the
main visiting area. Here, there are benches where visitors are meeting with
inmates, smaller rooms (each with a large window) along the walls with
tables and chairs, a row of vending machines, and a bored-looking officer
sitting at a desk on a platform, keeping an eye on things.
Bernard F. Baran Jr., 35, an inmate, makes his way to a side meeting room
with a round table for an interview. He is tanned and lean, about 5 feet 8
inches tall, perhaps 150 pounds, with a receding hairline and a black
ponytail. He is wearing jeans, a black shirt, and narrow rectangular
sunglasses.
Nervous and cautious, "Bee" Baran - he picked up the nickname in prison -
speaks slowly at first, in an accent suggesting upstate New York more than
New England (he is from Lanesborough, near Pittsfield). For about 45
minutes, he talks about his case, his life in prison, and his hopes. At one
point, he says simply, "I just want to go home and be with my family."
That will be difficult. Baran is in the 16th year of a life sentence for
rape of a child and for indecent assault on a child at the Pittsfield
day-care center where he worked from 1983 to 1984. Though other day-care
cases, such as Fells Acres in Malden, north of Boston, Wee Care Nursery in
New Jersey, Little Rascals in North Carolina, and McMartin Preschool in
California, are more famous, Baran was one of the first day-care workers in
the nation convicted for abusing children in his care. Only one Fells Acres
defendant, Gerald Amirault, remains in prison, and there is strong outside
support for his release; most of the other celebrated cases either ended
without convictions or resulted in convictions that were later overturned.
But Baran whiles away the years. Last fall he was eligible for parole after
15 years of his life sentence, but he canceled a hearing because he would
have had to admit guilt to be paroled, and he maintains his innocence.
Besides, even if he got parole, he would still be locked up in the Treatment
Center under a separate civil sentence. He declines to participate in the
AA-style treatment that entails acknowledging that he is a sexually
dangerous person.
There is a modest "Free Bernard Baran" movement, led by Robert Chatelle of
Boston. Chatelle, 58, is intensely committed to Amirault's and Baran's
causes. He and his partner, James D'Entremont, believe Baran's trial was a
homophobic witch hunt (Baran is gay). While other witch-hunt theorists are
supporters of Baran's cause, Chatelle is the leader; he maintains a Web site
("The Appalling Case of Bernard Baran" at www.ultranet.com/~kyp/baran.html)
and has set up a legal defense fund.
Chatelle's hopes are high. A burst of supportive letters and contributions
followed a column last February in The Nation by Katha Pollitt (whose main
source was Chatelle) with the headline "Justice for Bernard Baran." Boston
lawyer John Swormley, who has represented several clients in the Treatment
Center, has agreed to take Baran's case and expects to prepare a motion for
a new trial. A handful of other Boston lawyers familiar with the case
believe Baran's trial was unfair.
The case of Bernard Baran is complicated and replete with ambiguities and
uncertainties, and those affected by it are full of passionate conviction.
It can't be wholly sorted out in a single article. But one can say that the
case reflects the history of the last two decades, an age of rapid change in
American life and law - in ideas about children, sexuality, child abuse
investigation, evidence, and ordinary fairness. And one can say that it was
a tragedy, and still is.
With mothers swarming into the work force in the 1970s, demand for day care
was intense. Dorothy Amos, an African-American community activist in
Pittsfield's down-at-the-heels west side, founded the Early Childhood
Development Center, which came to be known as ECDC, in the mid-1970s. "Her
vision," says Carolyn Burns, executive director of the Berkshire Center for
Families and Children, "was to create a child-care center for west side
residents." At its peak, ECDC served about 100 children. Besides tuition, it
relied on public funds: In 1984, for example, it

Barclays’ banking business grew up in the country districts of England,
carried on by successful traders who had correspondents in London, choosing
to use the descendants of the goldsmith bankers, mainly grouped in Lombard
Street and its vicinity.   What these associations of traders set up was a
clearing house system by which transactions were made possible between the
country agents and a London bank without transporting cash.  According to a
history of Barclays Bank:

English merchants abroad [in British colonies] gradually developed into
bankers in much the same fashion; so that a century later, the bill [of
lading] on London had become, what it still remains, the most valued form of
international currency.  Thus first the country bankers, and then the
merchant bankers abroad, created the famous bill on London, which by the
punctuality of payment of their London agents ultimately obtained world-wide
repute.

The book explains British banking history, including the rise of joint-stock
banking, limited liability and the great banking amalgamations after 1915,
but it indicates that there was a "quite peculiar" manner which amalgamation
has taken place in the case of Barclays bank, as follows:

The nucleus of the combination consisted of two great firms united in 1888;
Barclay, Bevan, Tritton  Co., and Ransom, Bouverie  Co.; each of them
London agents of a number of country banks; and their first amalgamation of
1896, a most natural one, was a union with some twenty of these country
banks, in which the Gurneys of Norwich and Backhouse of Darlington figured
most actively.  From time to time after 1896 there were many similar unions
with local banks, especially in districts where the bank was not previously
represented.  Finally, after 1915, Barclays joined in the general movement
for concentration on a far larger scale, and amalgamated with large
centralised banch-banks of a different type.  In the end it has become the
third in size of our Big Five clearing banks, with deposits of over 300
million pounds, and 1838 bank offices.

A review of the Barclays history book found in The Economist in 1927
summarizes as follows:
In the course of the narrative the reader is introduced to a large number of
the best known names in English banking:  Alexander, Backhouse, Barclay of
course, Bevan, Birkbeck, Bolitho, Bosanquet, Bouverie, Buxton, Eaton,
Foster, Gosling, Gurneys, Hoare, Leatham, Lucas, Pease, Peckover, Seebohm,
Tritton, Tuke, Williams and many others. * * * * It is really astonishing
how intimately the English banking families were inter-related.  The writer
was once shown by an English banker a very elaborate pedigree, some four
feet square, on which he made out his descent from Sir John Houblon, the
first Governor of the Bank of England.  It further appeared from this
tangled web of descents and marriages that he was also connected with almost
every banking family one had heard of.  This intimate and complicated
relationship is fully illustrated in the book we are considering.  It
largely extends our printed record of such connections, and perhaps even
more of those religious sympathies on which they were grounded.  The Quakers
have played a great part in English banking, nowhere more than in the
Barclay group; the Huguenots may rank next; but a certain pietistic and
mystical form of religious feeling seems to have characterised nearly all
the original Barclay bankers.

According to the writers of Dope, Inc., the clearinghouse for the banks
involved in the drug trade is the Assicurazioni Generali of Venice, whose
major stockholders are the S.G. Warburg merchant bank  of London and the
Paris Banque de Pris et des Pays-Bas.  The Warburg chairman, Lord Eric Roll
of Ipsden became chairman of Kissinger Associates in 1984, replacing its
founder, Lord Carrington, who had also been a director of Hambro’s Bank,
when it financed Michele Sindona’s entry into the United States, as well as
a director of Barclays Bank—which is, incidentally, the principal financier
for the gold and diamond mining in Africa.   As stated in Dope, Inc., these
men are representatives of the ancient fondi who have collaborated for
centuries.  What is new and ominous is that the men who perform the dirty
work of the fondi have moved out of shadows of Caribbean offshore banking
and Hong Kong smuggling, and into the board rooms of the most powerful
American financial institutions, and close to the councils of the United
States government itself.

Nato guards escape routes as
Milosevic makes plans to flee

  Tom Walker, Podgorica
NATO and western intelligence
networks are closely
monitoring all flights out of
Belgrade in the belief that
President Slobodan Milosevic
may flee to China, where he is
thought to have up to $200m
(£140m) in secret bank
accounts.

The surveillance operation
began even before Milosevic
lost last week's presidential
election. Diplomats watching
the decline of the Serbian
regime said that in the past
six weeks Borka Vucic,
Milosevic's personal banker,
had made at least two trips to
Beijing. Their sources said her
business was connected with
the president's family and not
the Yugoslav state.

American officials say Nato will
thwart any attempt by Milosevic to escape from Serbia in a
private jet. His likely flight path would take him over
Hungary or Romania to Russia, which would probably turn
a blind eye if he moved on to Beijing.

However, Hungary is a Nato member and Romania hopes
to join the alliance. Both countries have interceptor
aircraft on standby, ready to force down any private
flights from Serbia.

Military sources in Bosnia said Nato surveillance had been
briefed to look out for a private Falcon jet or the Yugoslav
government's official DC10.

The whereabouts of Milosevic's wife, Mira Markovic, who
was reported to have suffered a nervous breakdown, and
children, Marko and Maria, were unknown yesterday.
Intelligence officials said they were more concerned with
the movements of the president himself, who has been
indicted by the international criminal tribunal for the
former Yugoslavia in the Hague for crimes against
humanity in Kosovo.

The officials said Madeleine Albright, the American
secretary of state, was determined to bring Milosevic to
justice before the end of the Clinton administration in
January.

The Milosevic regime is believed to have robbed the state
of up to $5 billion, most of it leached out of the country in
the early 1990s after all personal bank accounts were
frozen in Serbia, ostensibly to help fund the war effort and
to counter hyper-inflation.

Much of the money was taken to Cyprus, Lebanon and
China, and classic money-laundering techniques have
made it almost untraceable. Although Milosevic has never
indulged himself on the scale of the former Ceausescu
dynasty in neighbouring Romania, his security bills are
huge and his Chinese savings are believed to be
substantial.

"We believe he could have anything up to $200m there,"
said one intelligence source. "It will help him to hide
away."

Vucic has helped Milosevic with his finances since they
worked together at Beogradska Bank 20 years ago. She is
now the minister in charge of co- operation with
international financial institutions.

Intelligence sources say western capitals are watching
the movements of members of the Yugoslav regime who
may be thought by Milosevic to know too much. They
include military figures such as General Dragoljub Ojdanic,
the army chief of staff during the Kosovo campaign, and
Frenki Simatovic, the head of anti-terrorist forces.

Milosevic is also wary of fellow politicians such as Milan
Milutinovic, the Serbian president, and Vlajko Stojilkovic,
the interior minister.

"The future is very difficult for all of them," said one
western source. "They'd love to get out, but Slobo has to
have them somewhere where he can control them."

The source said some members of the regime had already
made secret trips to Budapest, the Hungarian capital,
offering information on the intricacies of the Belgrade
machine in exchange for visas to safe havens.

Stojilkovic is said to have been harshly treated last week.
Police sources say that he was told by Markovic to bring
his most ruthless units onto the streets of Belgrade, but
that many had refused.

As the extent of police and army sympathy for the
opposition became known, Milosevic was said to have
hurled an ashtray at Gorica Gajevic, his party secretary.

In Milosevic's home town of Pozarevac, local people said
they had heard the family was selling property. A

[GVT] The Aftermath of UN Millennium Summit

From www.americanpolicy.org/un/aftermathofun.htm

The Aftermath of the U.N. Millennium Summit... A Renewed Commitment to
Global Governance

By Peyton Knight, Associate Editor

Now that the U.N. Millennium Summit has come and gone, many are wondering
"what happened?" What consensus was reached at the gathering? Are the tools
for global governance in place? What will become of our nation¹s
sovereignty? Did our president express the best interest of the United
States? What can citizens of the U.S. expect now that the Summit is over?

While the methods for implementation were vague, the goals for
accomplishment were incredibly specific. Everything was promised to
everyone. Indeed, the world forum sounded like a roomful of Al Gore¹s, each
one trying to outdo the other with how much they could pander to their
audience of third world countries and socialist dictators. The underlying
theme was simple: The world has problems. Only the U.N. can solve them. Give
us the power. Sound familiar? It should. It¹s the same mantra that liberals
and socialists alike spew to the easily swayed masses who believe that
rights, happiness, and prosperity begin with government programs and end
with individual liberty.

The most deceptive aspect of all this, is the that U.N. is packaging their
socialistic product in a box labeled "democracy." Let¹s examine just a few
of the details of the "U.N. Millennium Declaration" which was derived from
the Summit.

Dictatorial Powers

The most frightening new direction the United Nations is taking after their
summit is the change in which authority determines the deployment of
peacekeeping missions. Traditionally, this authority has been the U.N.
Security Council, a board consisting of the major heads of state. This
allows the major contributing nations to decide whether or not certain
deployments are worthy of their contributed resources. Most importantly, it
gives the United States (the hands-down most generous contributor to the
U.N. budget) a voice in where the world body will intervene around the
world.

No longer. Now, peacekeeping decisions will be the sole authority of the
U.N. bureaucracy‹specifically, the Secretary General. This gives the United
Nations unilateral power to deploy "peacekeeping" troops around the globe.
No more input from the pesky United States. Nonetheless, the U.S. is still
expected to pump exorbitant amounts of money, soldiers and resources into
U.N. operations‹only now we have no voice in how those resources are used.
How does the Clinton/Gore administration feel about this castration? Let
President Clinton tell you in his own words, in his address to the U.N.
Security Council at the Millennium Summit.

"We must do more to equip the United Nations to do what we ask it to do.
They need to be able to be peacekeepers who can be rapidly deployed,
properly trained and equipped, able to project credible force. That, of
course, is the thrust of the Secretary General¹s report on peacekeeping
reform. The United States strongly supports that report."

Apparently, the President has no problem signing away our national security,
as well as the lives of American soldiers, to the United Nations.

The International Criminal Court

The U.N.¹s International Criminal Court (ICC) gained some momentum at the
Summit. This court would empower the United Nations to enforce its own rule
of law. As stated in these pages before, the ICC would reign supreme over
every other judicial system in the world‹including that of the United
States. The U.N. has vowed to hold every member of every nation accountable
to this court, whether or not that nation ratifies it.

At the Summit, the Statute for the ICC was signed by an additional 12
countries and ratified by four. The statute now has a total of 110
signatures and 19 ratifications. This is nearly one third of the 60 total
ratifications the ICC must have to enter into force.

Also stressed at the Summit, was the need for the United Nations to have its
own fighting force for supposed peacekeeping missions. This army would
consist of soldiers from varying nations‹who would transform their
allegiance to the U.N. This proposal has been labeled many things, most
notably the U.N. refers to it as the "United Nations Rapid Deployment Police
and Security Force" (UNRDF). In reality, this is no more than a U.N.
standing army. With the International Criminal Court at its side, the UNRDF
will be boundless in its operation.

A Turkey in Every Pot

The Millennium Summit also served as a stage for the leaders of the United
Nations to gain support for their plans of eradicating poverty. Of course,
no one likes poverty, however, the U.N.¹s solutions to poverty-stricken
areas resemble nothing more than a global "New Deal" list of entitlement
programs. In their words: "Global challenges must be managed in a way that
distributes the costs and burdens fairly in accordance with basic principles

The Summer Of Hate
When a man like Matt Hale is in town, race is a very important issue
By Ken Picard

If you didn't know any better, and hadn't been paying too close attention,
you might assume that Matt Hale and his band of followers in the World
Church of the Creator (WCOTC) were nothing more than a bunch of angry social
misfits. Dressed in their black T-shirts that read "RAHOWA" (an acronym for
"Racial Holy War") and toting red, white and black flags that sport the
WCOTC emblem--a large black "W" topped with a crown and halo--they bear a
closer resemblance to a gang of prepubescent boys whose clubhouse door reads
"No chicks" in drippy paint than to the virulently racist hate group that's
been linked to at least a decade's worth of vandalism, arson, assault and
murder from Florida to California.
Until Hale opens his mouth, that is. That's when the illusion of little boys
playing with toy guns disappears. In early September, Hale and a handful of
his followers descended upon the ordinarily peaceful town of Superior, some
60 miles west of Missoula, Mont., for their annual meeting at the ranch of
Superior resident, and WCOTC member, Slim Deardorff.
Hale and seven of his followers gathered at high noon Saturday, on the steps
of the Mineral County Courthouse, to exercise their First Amendment rights
via Hale's well-rehearsed brand of racist demagoguery. Standing before them
were no more than 40 or 50 people, most of us representatives from local and
national news agencies, but also a handful of curious onlookers, and a
smattering of supporters, not to mention an unknown number of agents from
state and federal law enforcement agencies.
When Hale began his racist rigmarole, I surmised that most of his onlookers
were engaged in some combination of the following: shaking their heads,
silently ridiculing him, formulating self-evident arguments in their heads
about his ideology, and pondering what better ways we could be spending this
fine Saturday afternoon in western Montana than discovering a frightening
new reason to lie awake at night.
Eradicating the garden variety of ignorance we all encounter on a daily
basis can be challenging enough. But how do you combat the deliberate and
premeditated ignorance of Matt Hale's arguments? How much breath should you
exhaust debating a man who claims that it was the white race who first
inhabited the North American continent? Or that the ancient Egyptians and
Chinese were originally part of the white race until their blood was
"muddied by Negro blood?" Or that the contributions of African Americans to
the fields of art, music, sports and literature are "negligible or
non-existent?" Or that the Jews have historically been responsible for their
own persecution because "there wouldn't be anti-Semitism without Semitism?"
Still, I resisted the easy temptation to dismiss Hale outright. The national
media and the hate-watch groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center and the
Anti-Defamation League, which have been monitoring Hale's activities, have
been vigilant in unmasking his followers as hate-mongers with violent
tendencies. But despite Hale's reassurances that violence plays no role in
his church except as a form of self-defense, the guns he and his followers
wore on their belts on the courthouse steps attested to the deadly
earnestness of their message. And still, I was still no closer to
understanding what makes Hale tick.
Despite popular misconception, Hale rejects the label of white supremacist,
and instead prefers being called a white separatist. Though the distinction
may be a trivial one, as he put it, his "kind" has no interest in ruling
over other races. 
"We do not say that segregation is right," said Hale. "No, segregation was
folly. We want separation of the races, and we will campaign to have it.
Without racial separation, this nation will one day plunge into civil war."
Hale preached that all the non-white races should be repatriated to their
country or continent of origin; the blacks to Africa, the "Orientals" to the
Orient, the Arabs to Arabia, ad infinitum. Exactly where Hale would
"repatriate" the Native Americans to was unclear--he made some nebulous
reference to their Siberian origins and their subsequent migration across
the Bering Strait--but could offer no specifics as to how such a mass
deportation might be accomplished.
And when I pointed out that his definition of the white race refers to
peoples of northern European descent, and asked why he didn't want to return
whence he came, he dodged the question altogether.
Hale was equally ambiguous about what spiritual aspects, if any, there are
to his church. While he said, "There will not be a god from the sky to
deliver us from evil," he nonetheless spoke of holding church services later
that afternoon, and said he encourages his adherents to engage in fasting
for its "spiritual benefits."
Hale appeared more comfortable treading on the scientific realm, though even
that

Mass Bolivian Revolt Against US-Imposed Drug War

Regime Shoots at Civilians: Banzer Could Fall at any Hour

US Media's Silence: Deafening

International Communiqué from Narco News

http://www.narconews.com/pressbriefing.html

PRIMERO: The events in Bolivia, as we report today, become more grave
by the hour. At blame is the US-imposed war on drugs and the refusal
of the regime of Hugo Banzer to deviate from US policy of total
eradication of the coca crop, including for non-harmful chewing of
coca leaf by Bolivian indigenous and popular sectors.

SEGUNDO: The US-backed Banzer regime has taken to violence against
civilians to try to quell the protests that have paralyzed this
nation for two weeks.

TERCERO: The mass protests only grow stronger and the Banzer regime,
if it does not back off its hardline, could fall within weeks, days,
even hours.

CUARTO: The Narco News Bulletin condemns the near-total blackout of
news from Bolivia by English-language press agencies. The only wire
service to cover yesterday's shooting of civilians by Bolivian
military troops was Reuters, for which we congratulate the agency and
hope to see more coverage. Associated Press, on the other hand, is
keeping its newspapers and readers in the dark, and in a just world
AP would fall with the Banzer regime.

QUINTO: The Narco News Bulletin hereby names the journalists and
photographers of the daily newspaper Los Tiempos of Cochabamba,
Bolivia as Heroes of the Month for September, 2000. If a fraction of
the United States media were as conscious, courageous and independent
as this major daily, there would not be a hypocritical drug war.

Today, we translate more of their reports.

[CTRL] China says Vatican's newest saints were sinners

China says Vatican's newest saints were sinners, rapists

By CHRISTOPHER BODEEN
The Associated Press
10/1/00 12:22 PM
BEIJING (AP) -- China on Sunday proclaimed its "utmost indignation" at the
pope for bestowing sainthood on 120 Catholics who died under Chinese
religious persecution, saying they were "evil-doing sinners" guilty of rape
and plunder.

The condemnation by the Foreign Ministry was echoed by the leader of China's
state-run Catholic church, Bishop Fu Tieshan, who called the canonization
ceremony led by Pope John Paul II on Sunday in Rome "intolerable."

"Some of those canonized by the Vatican this time perpetrated outrages such
as raping and looting in China and committed unforgivable crimes against the
Chinese people," the Foreign Ministry said in a statement carried by the
official Xinhua News Agency.

In a separate statement, the government released the names of two saints it
said "committed monstrous crimes in China."

One was Albericus Crescitelli -- a Vatican Web site gave the first name
Alberico -- described as an Italian missionary who died in the anti-Western,
anti-Christian Boxer uprising a century ago.

Crescitelli "was notorious for taking the 'right of the first night' of each
bride under his diocese," the State Administration of Religious Affairs said
in the statement, also run by Xinhua.

The statement also brought up an example often cited by Western and Chinese
scholars: Auguste Chapdelaine, a French missionary whose execution by the
Chinese the French used as a pretext for attacks on China beginning in 1857.

The pope declared the 120 -- 87 Chinese Catholics, the rest foreign
missionaries -- martyrs because they died for their faith, mostly at the
hands of the Boxers.

The Vatican's choice of Sunday as the date for the ceremony also outraged
Chinese officials and religious leaders because it falls on the 51st
anniversary of communist rule in China.

Earlier Sunday, Fu told worshippers in Beijing's South Cathedral that Sunday
should be a rallying point for Chinese.

"Today is National Day, and more than ever Chinese Catholics should stand
with the nation," Fu said at morning services in the high-vaulted church,
built in 1904 on a site where Catholics have worshipped in Beijing for more
than 300 years.

Fu's sentiments were repeated among worshippers at South Cathedral, which
was burned to the ground by the superstitious Boxers, who are praised by the
Communist Party as forerunners of the revolution.

"Saints should be role models, but these were criminals against the Chinese
people. This is an insult to China and an insult to the Chinese Catholics,"
a churchgoer said.

China broke ties with the Vatican in 1951 and demands Catholics worship only
in churches approved by the official China Patriotic Catholic Association.
The official church claims 4 million believers but an equal number worship
in an underground church loyal to the Vatican and relentlessly persecuted.

The Vatican has denied that Sunday's ceremony was politically motivated.
Vatican officials have said Sunday was chosen, not because it was China's
National Day, but because it marks the feast of Saint Therese of Lisieux,
patron saint of missionaries.

FBI v. protesters

From: mike burke [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In an attempt to squash the debate about globalization
the U.S. government, according to both police
officials and activists, has begun using
counterintelligence means in order to closely monitor
the moves of anti-globalization by using such forces
as the US Army Intelligence and Security Command.

To many the covert tactics mirror the government's
highly controversial and murderous COINTELPRO efforts
in the late 1960s and 1970s which targeted many
radical movements including anti-war protesters and
black nationalists.

Since the massive World Trade Organization protests
in Seattle last fall, the Federal Bureau of
Investigations has switched its focus away from
violent right-wing domestic terrorists to a movement
that often cites Gandhi as an inspiration.

"Virtually every resource that the FBI has available
will be put into play," said Thomas J. Harrington,
the assistant special agent-in-charge in the FBI's
Philadelphia office told the Philadelphia Inquirer
prior to the Republican National Convention which
attracted thousands of protests in late July and
early August. "After the Atlanta Olympics it was bombings
that were the main focus. . . . Now protesters have
become more of a focus."

Any why are counterintelligence efforts  needed?

``There are people who may do more than exercise
their First Amendment rights,'' said David Yarnell, a
department spokesman for the Philadelphia police explaining
why the department took preventive measures during the
convention.

"We were watching. We were making surveillance
efforts. It's just prudent preparations for anything," Yarnell
told the Philadelphia Inquirer.

What may be most alarming is who the "we" Yarnell is
talking about.

According to a May report in the French publication
Intelligence Newsletter,  "the Pentagon sent around
700 men from the Intelligence and Security Command
at Fort Belvoir to assist the Washington police on
April 17, including specialists in human and signals
intelligence. One unit was even strategically located
on the fourth floor balcony in a building at 1919
Pennsylvania Avenue with a birds-eye view of most
demonstrators."

The Intelligence Newsletter report also noted that
"to justify their interest in anti-globalization groups
from a legal standpoint, the authorities lump them
into a category of terrorist organizations. Among
those considered as such at present are Global
Justice (the group that organized the April 17 demonstration),
Earth First, Greenpeace, American Indian Movement,
Zapatista National Liberation Front and Act-Up."

Similar surveillance techniques were used in Europe
prior to the September 26 protests in Prague. The
Prague IndyMedia Center recently reported that the
Ministry of Interior of the Czech Republic made an
unexpected visit to an Italian web firm that hosted
the Prague IMC site.

Foreign protesters have also been prevented from
entering the Czech Republic on various legal
technicalities, the Prague IMC has reported.

In addition to tracking such organizations, police
officials have taken draconian measures in raiding
buildings used by demonstrators to organize and
often condemning the buildings, on what protest leaders
often claim to be trumped up violations done not to
protect the public safety but to curtail free speech.

On April 15, a day before the April 16 Washington D.C.
protest against the International Monetary Fund, a

Tobacco and Firearms, the Washington Metropolitan
Police Department and

PROBLEMS FOR VICTIMS OF RITUAL ABUSE IN SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA

Opinion Piece Submitted to the San Diego Union-Tribune,
by Ellen Lacter, Ph.D. on 9-29-2000

Mark Sauer's 9-24-00 article, "A Web of Intrigue", in the
San Diego Union-Tribune is his most recent in a series of
articles misrepresenting the facts on the subject of child
ritual abuse and attacking advocates for ritual abuse victims.
His articles have, over the past 10 years, contributed to
convincing a good portion of the San Diego community that
ritual abuse does not exist. This has had a devastating
impact on victimized children and adults, resulting in their
not being believed and reduced protection by law enforcement
and the courts.

Sauer's factual misrepresentations of 9-24-00 are as follows:

1. Sauer claims the debate over satanic ritual abuse ended
in the mid-1990's when it was "discredited by mental-health
experts and the courts". The truth is that psychological and
legal evidence of the existence of satanic ritual abuse is
substantial and that the debate is alive and well.

A review of the empirical evidence of ritual abuse can be found
in a book by James Randolph Noblitt and Pamela Sue Perskin
(Cult and Ritual Abuse, 2000, Chapter 6). One national survey
of 2709 clinical psychologists showed that 30% claimed to have
seen at least one case of "ritualistic or religion-based
abuse" and 93% of these psychologists believed the harm actually
occurred (Reference: Goodman, Qin, Bottoms, and Shaver, 1994,
"Characteristics and Sources of Allegations of Ritualistic
Child Abuse: Final Report to the National Center on Child
Abuse and Neglect").

The American Psychiatric Press published a text in 1997
explaining the importance of correct assessment and treatment
of ritualistic abuse survivors (The Dilemma of Ritual Abuse:
Cautions and Guides for Therapists, edited by G.A. Fraser).

Numerous court decisions (criminal, family, juvenile, and
civil) have been based on findings of ritual abuse. For
example, on February 27, 1999, the Honorable Warren K. Urbom,
Senior United States District Judge, Omaha, Nebraska, awarded
a million dollar civil judgement to Paul Bonacci against
Larry King (not the well-known talk-show host, Larry King),
based on King's sexual abuse (including pornography and
orgies) and false imprisonment, of Bonacci as a child, in
the infamous Franklin satanic cult/sex/drug ring case. Further
information on this case can be found in the book, "The
Franklin Cover-Up", by John De Camp, and on the Internet at:
http://www.stansolomon.com/gundrsn02.htm

The court finding list is archived, periodically updated,
and published on the world-wide web by "Karen Curio Jones".
Under this pseudonym, "Jones" has devoted herself to raising
public awareness of child ritual abuse on the Internet for
the past five years. Sauer claims to expose "Jones'" identity
in his 9-24-00 article.

Sauer globally denies the existence of satanic ritual abuse
while our recent history is marred with undeniable cases of
mass suicide/homicide by other kinds of cults and underground
groups. This past summer, almost 1000 people were found
murdered by an underground cult in Uganda, "Movement for the
Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God". Last year, in
Rancho Sante Fe, 39 people suicided from the cult, "Heaven's
Gate". In Jonestown, 22 years ago, more than 900 people
mass-suicided and were murdered of "The People's Temple".
Devastating world events originate in underground groups,
such as the Third Reich and Ku Klux Klan. High school students
are taught to remember the Nazi death camps lest such atrocities
repeat themselves. Given these examples, why does Sauer turn
a blind eye to the evidence of satanic cult abuse?

2. Sauer cites the McMartin Pre-school acquittals as evidence
that ritual abuse does not exist. He omits any mention of the
post-trial geological survey under the school's foundation that
yielded convincing corroboration of  the children's reports
of being taken through underground tunnels (See "The Dark
Tunnels of McMartin", by  Summit, R.C., 1994, The Journal of
Psychohistory, 21(4), 397-416.)

3. Sauer cites the "10-year investigation" by Special FBI
Agent Ken Lanning that concluded that satanic ritual abuse
does not exist. Sauer fails to mention that Lanning is a very
controversial figure. Noblitt and Perskin (2000, see above)
state: "In reality, there is no such study... my office
contacted the FBI and requested a copy of the alleged study.
The bureau responded in writing indicating that no such study
existed." (See page 179 of their book).

4. Sauer refers to the 1991-1992 San Diego County Grand Jury
"that blasted the child protection system after investigating
wide-ranging allegations of zealous social workers removing
children from their homes without cause". Sauer has widely
publicized the findings of that Grand Jury over the years.
Sauer fails to mention the 1992-1993 San Diego County Grand
Jury Report that strongly criticized the 1991-1992

[CTRL] Now They Want To Put Jellyfish in Our Sugar

Now They Want To Put Jellyfish in Our Sugar
BY JOHN INGHAM ENVIRONMENT EDITOR, www.lineone.com

JELLYFISH genes have been put into sugar cane in a shocking new genetically
modified food development approved by Australian government scientists.

They hope the gene will help stop juice extracted from raw sugar cane from
browning when it is crushed. But scientists, environmentalists and
politicians yesterday condemned the move as a step too far down the GM road.

The Daily Express has already revealed research by Chinese scientists to put
human genes into tobacco, tomatoes and potatoes. They want to establish
whether the genes allow the crops to grow in land contaminated with heavy
metals.

Greenpeace campaigner Andy Tait, who was this month cleared in a GM
crop-wrecking trial, branded the research as "irresponsible". He said it
gave the lie to the biotech industry's claim that GM crops are just an
extension of traditional cropbreeding.

Mr Tait added: "We are breaking species barriers in a way that could never
happen naturally with entirely unknown impacts on the environment and the
food chain. This is incredibly irresponsible behaviour by companies obsessed
with short-term profit at the expense of sustainable agricultural
production."

Professor Carlo Leifert, whose postgraduate students have carried out
controlled research into jellyfish genes in plants, found the Australian
work "incredibly worrying".

One of his students at Aberdeen University had discovered that inserting a
jellyfish gene into a bacterium rendered its original function - a control
of soil diseases - "useless".

Professor Leifert said: "It is another example of the completely
unpredictable nature of genetic transformation. By putting the jellyfish
gene into sugar cane you could change the toxicity spectrum in the plant."

"This could change the toxins the plant produces to defend itself from
insects into toxins that could potentially harm consumers."

Friends of the Earth said the trials were "a step way too far for the
public" and branded it "commercial suicide" for any company that bought the
sugar if it was ever cleared for consumption. Sugar manufacturers also
revealed that they would not sell the GM product should it ever come to
market. Tate  Lyle and British Sugar are both GM free and say they intend
to remain so.

Liberal Democrat Consumer Affairs spokesman Norman Baker said: "Consumers
would be horrified. They want to have confidence when they buy this basic
commodity that they are getting sugar not jellyfish. This is particularly
worrying for vegetarians. The question is, where will it end?" The
controversy began with the announcement this week that Australia's Genetic
Manipulation Advisory Committee had approved sugar cane using a jellyfish
gene for field trials.The cane has already been produced by Australian
government scientists and will be grown at three sites in Queensland over
the next three years.

[CTRL] Rudolph Steiner and the War of all against All

2000-10-01 Thread Donald Park
Title: Rudolph Steiner and the War of all against All



 KOMRADES: Justine Blake asks:
 I know this is going to sound a bit confused, but I find what is happening
 today with politikal korrektness and activists going at it every which way
 to be konfusing as to who is behind it all mostly. So bear with me, and any
 insights are greatly appreciated.

snip
 On the other hand, maybe marxist/leninist/socialists/communists have a
 point? Big government and big corporations, and IMF, WTC, etc., even
 democracy, have done nothing for me as a tax slave living in Amerika.

 I prefer willing sex slaves myself. But more to the point: Here and again, posted in this list has been references to a rather mysterious personality named Rudolph Steiner (1864-1925); an Austrian philosopher, occultist, educator (the Waldorf Schools), clairvoyant, perhaps the best ever known. I have attempted to study this man's works for over 30 years. In my opionio (sp?) (you know 'onion with a 'p' in front) he is one of the most neglected genusis of the century.
 One cannot just pick up any book or printed lecture by this guy and streight way make sense of it. His lectures and books were built on primary knowledge basis that had to be understood before one went on with his ideas. In this way he is like Heidigger, and (you know) the phenomanology philosophers whose names escape me and I couldn't spell anyway. 
 But the matter at hand is what he said about the end of the century and matters going into the 21st. The most dire idea was what he called the 'War of all against all. That it could be in full flames (like right now). 
 In the 1970's I spoke at length (over many occassions) with a German priest by the name of Carl Stegmann. Stegmann was in his eighties, his intellect, clear as a bell. He had personally known Rudloph Steiner. During this time Stegmann wrote two books published as manuscript titled: The Other America 'The Western World in Light of Spiritual Science'. These are not lite reading and require some familiarity with Steiner's basic ideas. (BTW Steiner was associated with the Theosophy movement and Madame Blavatsky at the turn of the century).
 I intend to publish some of these thoughts of Stegmann and Steiner to this list (that is, when I can get time to get them together). The reason being that events such as we are witnessing on a daily basis cannot be understood from the so-called normal materialistic intellect. We have to consider spiritual forces playing heavily upon mankind at this time and these will only increase in the future. It is man's destiny to incarnate physically, but we form a unity with intelligences that are non material; called angels of various types, and spirits that are very dark in their nature, highly intelligent, strong willed with an agenda that harks back to myth and the Bible.
 Due to our earth bound orientation many experiences from 'other realms' become UFO, invasion from Mars or what ever. When, in reality, most of these are really spiritual experiences that we are not familiar. That is all changing. This is not to say UFO's are just a twinkling of our reemerging 3rd eye, some may be very tangible.
 The jest of the battle now taking place is that new forces are emerging in mankind as a whole. We will eventually reacquire the clairvoyant faculties that were lost when the last islands of Alantis sunk. This will introduce us into an entirely new world and enrich mankind. But they are forces whose nature makes them want to rule us and eventually turn us into themselves. That would mean becoming part of the Borg if I may borrow that term from TV.
 The Borg wish to keep us blind and materialistic as possible; to forment troubles between every group of people, to split families, to control our thinking in all possible ways.
 You see the Borg or evil ones cannot change the fact that mankind will evolve these new faculities (to ever greater heights over several thousand years) but they wish to control that new vision and experience and channel it into directions that suit their evolution, not ours.
 Those souls that take up Borgness, as it were, will lose their individuality, their will, and in time, be torn out of the cosmic pattern that mankind is destined to obtain. 
 Now, I admit, ideas like this are not necessairly new nor do they lead themselves to 'sound-bite' mentality; nor to rabid bible or Koran 'thumpers' simplistic intreputations.
 But for me, when I really begain to look at events from the perspective of Steiner and Stegmann, events which has been totally a mystery begin to become somewhat transparent. The manipulation was immediately visible when connecting the dots. 
 We all feel this every single day, that forces, somewhere are interviening heavily into our lives and it takes strength and courage and most of all a great deal of love to see the souls that are really important to us are not manipulated into somekind of craziness and destruction that seems to be wanting to close in upon

[CTRL] Hawking says greenhouse effect threatens human race survival

Hawking says greenhouse effect threatens human race survival

The Associated Press

LONDON (September 30, 2000 10:12 a.m. EDT
http://www.nandotimes.com) - Stephen Hawking fears the human race may
not survive another millennium.

"I am afraid the atmosphere might get hotter and hotter until it will be like
Venus with boiling sulfuric acid," the physicist told Britain's Press
Association. "I am worried about the greenhouse effect."

To ensure the survival of humans, he adds, efforts must be made to
colonize other planets. Space travel would not solve every problem, but at
least it would ensure that people don't become extinct.

"It takes too many resources to send each person into space," he said.
"But unless the human race spreads into space, I doubt it will survive the
next thousand years."

Hawking, 58, holds the Cambridge University post once held by Sir Isaac
Newton and is the author of the best-selling "A Brief History of Time."

[CTRL] Israelis use missiles against Palestinian police

Sunday, 1 October 2000 13:00 (ET)
Israelis use missiles against  Palestinian police
By SAUD ABU RAMADAN
 RAFAH, Gaza Strip, Oct. 1 (UPI) -- Israeli military helicopters
Sunday used anti-tank missiles to attack two Palestinian police
buildings in the southern town Gaza of Rafah, killing two police
officers and wounding 70 civilians.
 The Israelis used missiles after Palestinian police officers opened
fire at an Israeli military outlook post on the borders between Gaza
Strip and Egypt during the clashes between hundreds of stones
throwers and Israeli soldiers.
 Palestinian medical sources confirmed that two Palestinian police
officers arrived dead at Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, and at least 70
civilians and police officers were injured in the missile attack.
 Eyewitnesses in Rafah told United Press International that
hundreds of Palestinians broke into the border area between Gaza
and Egypt that is controlled by Israeli army patrols and an outlook
post. They said that hundreds of protesters began to throw stones
at the Israeli soldiers Sunday morning. The soldiers located along
the borders responded by shooting tear gas and rubber bullets.
 The clashes continued, and when one of the Palestinian police
officers was shot and injured, his colleagues began to shoot at the
Israeli soldiers, said the eyewitnesses. The Israeli soldiers were
located at the military tower on the borders and the Palestinian
police officers were responding to the fire from the adjacent houses
and also from their bases next to the borders.
 The Palestinians said that while both sides were trading fire, two
Israeli military helicopters fired 15 anti-tank missiles at the two
building of the military intelligence. The results, two killed and
dozens injured.
 In Gaza, at Nitzarim crossroad, Palestinian police and Israeli
soldiers traded fire, where Palestinians reported that one
Palestinian police officer was killed and more than 60 people
injured.
 In the West bank town on Nablus, a two Palestinians were killed,
one a police officer who was killed when Israeli soldiers and
Palestinian police officers traded fire near the grave of Josef out
side the city of Nablus.
 Outside the West Bank city of Ramallah, three Palestinians were
reported dead in the clashes between Israeli soldiers and
Palestinian police officers and Palestinian demonstrators.
Palestinians said Israeli soldiers occupied the Palestinian Hotel
City Inn at the entrance to Ramallah after they forced customers
out and tried to disperse Palestinian police officers and
demonstrators.
 Palestinian radio reported that the Israeli soldiers stationed 15
tanks outside the West Bank town of Nablus and were supported
by three military helicopters near the grave of Josef outside Nablus
City.
 Palestinians reported that the toll of Palestinians killed Sunday in
the West Bank and Gaza reached to 10 Palestinians, and more
than 300 injured by life ammunition and rubber-coated metal
bullets. They are divided as follow:
2 in Gaza, 5 in Nablus, and 3 in Ramallah; four of them were
Palestinian police officers and two were children.
 In the Israeli-Arab town of Omm El Fahem, Palestinian radio
reported that two Israeli-Arabs were shot and killed in the protests
and demonstrations that dominated most of the Israeli Arab towns
and villages in the northern area of Israel.
 Hamas leader Isma'eel Abu Shanab called upon the Palestinian
authority to release all Hamas militants and send them to carry out
attacks into Israel as a respond to what he described, "killing
innocent Palestinians in cold blood."
 Secretary General of the PA Cabinet accused the Israeli
government that it is "committing massacres against our people in
order to oblige them to accept the political solutions that Israel
wants to impose on the Palestinians."

2000-10-01 Thread Aleisha Saba

-Caveat Lector-

Reading this item was very interesting; in the 70 period there was a
Wiccan who went underground for he said the Military Intelligence had
infiltrated into his group.   Which it had; I have many of his old
newspapers and it was obviously some type of front, dating back to 60
period.

Sharon Tate who was murdered by Manson Famly had father in military; two
of his followers had fathers in military, Pentagon and NASA.consider
Littleton, and the military connection to this hypnotic conrol or mind
control induced by drugs, and when you put this altogether consider too,
Tate and Folger murdered by the Manson killers, had had dinner with RFK
night he died - and the night he was murdered, John Glenn was with him
and was spirited off...during this period you had spies on West Coast
galore permitted to demoralize troops in bars - and things were not as
they seemed to be.

Anton LaVey, the alleged "satanist" was Jewishin this article which
I reproduce he turned into satanist for obviou$$ reasons, but stated it
was because he hated Christianity.  All these groups are just fronts for
drugs and pornography.

Roman Polanski was involved in child pornography and fled the country
after his wife was murdered..Note the satanist LaVey portrayed in
the movie Rosemary's Baby.this movie was ANTI CATHOLIC.I forget
who produced that obscenity with Mia Farrow but Black Muslem papers
referred to this movie and the connection to the Pope, whom they
detested.

This stuff is all a front for drugs.if you check out LaVey when he
died, and prior to that his bankruptcy hearings and sharing with his
palimony live in whatever - his business was to make money.

It seems the Wiccans and LaVey lost a lot of popularity when Charles
Manson and his little followers (and who was Manson's mentor - this man
had strong connections to the music world, and organized crime) showed
them what real satanism was..but during this time frame military had
infiltrated into these groups for rather obvious reasons.

You see they were strong believers in the iniquities of the fathers
being visited upon the children.even little CIA Pattie Hearst (for
all Hearsts like Morgan, Mellon, Rockefeller etc heirs) are
CIA...and Hearst was big time Rosicrucian..so Hearst played role
in murder of two presidents, but did not get due credit for death of
JFK.premeditated murder by prophecy (assisted by hired gun).

So put this big mess altogether and you see spies and remember, the
Walker spies years later in 1980 period formed a little KKK for the KGB
and it took 5 Golden Dragons to down that bunch ..

Propaganda - terror - drugs - pornography - and even a little voo doo
tossed in with satanism for its all in the game..

So consider why Anton LaVey, Jewish founder of the Church of Satan would
be an advisor for the movie Rosemary's Baby - an anti Pope Catholic
movie?   Sublime pictures but even the Black Moslems caught that one

LaVey is dead - he was nothing but a front for drugs and pornography and
anything evil coming down the pike for it was the big bucks he was
after..not many bought his particular type of literature except
maybe the Manson family and Roman Polanski - the sick twisted pererted
child molestor?

Always lurking about is the child molestor and child
pornographyerPolanski was having affairor molested 13 year old
little girlconnecting dots as this one person said, makes for bigger
picture.then toss in the political assassination of RFK and mind
controlled assassins walking about - whose assassins had to be in the
Rosicrucian Society but had information prior to his joining of this
cult.so, who was his mentor and controller?

In the News
Anton LaVey Dies

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (EP) — Anton LaVey, founder of the Church of
Satan, died Oct. 29 of pulmonary edema. He was 67. LaVey was cremated
after a Satanic funeral.

LaVey founded the Church of Satan in 1966, and drew national attention
the next year when he performed a Satanic wedding ceremony.

He played the devil in the film "Rosemary's Baby," and worked as a
consultant on movies. He also wrote The Satanic Bible and four other
books; his final book, Satan Speaks, is scheduled for release next
spring.

His daughter, Church of Satan High Priestess Karla LaVey, said, "We will
continue in his footsteps to do as he directed to keep the Church of
Satan going and keep it strong." The church claims more than 10,000
members.

Before becoming a professional Satanist, LaVey worked as a lion tamer,
organist, hypnotist, psychic, artist and photographer.

*
Family members said he did not believe in a personal devil, but turned
to Satanic imagery to provoke a reaction and illustrate his disdain for
Christianity. His daughter told a news conference, "He said his epitaph
should be ... 'I only regret the times that I was too nice.'"

were elected in a year ending in a zero, as in 2000.  He stated that it is
possible whoever gets elected this time may die in office somehow; i.e., as

[CTRL] Beijing Warns of 'Interference' From U.S.-Taiwan Arms Deal

http://www.iht.com/IHT/TODAY/SAT/IN/taiwan.2.html

Paris, Saturday, September 30, 2000
Beijing Warns of 'Interference' From U.S.-Taiwan Arms Deal
Compiled by Our Staff From Dispatches
WASHINGTON -The Pentagon has announced a series of arms
sales to Taiwan valued at $1.3 billion, including a type of air-to-air
missile it previously had refused to sell and an advanced military
communications system.
The Pentagon, in written statements Thursday, said the sale would
''not affect the basic military balance in the region.''
But Beijing responded Friday by saying the deal amounted to ''rude
interference'' in internal Chinese affairs.
''The U.S., regardless of China's solemn representations, will
flagrantly sell a large number of advanced weapons to Taiwan,'' said
a Foreign Ministry spokesman, Sun Yuxi, in a statement issued by
the official Xinhua press agency. ''The U.S. side should bear the
serious consequences arising therefrom.''
The Pentagon said the 200 AIM-120C medium-range, air-to-air
missiles would enhance the defensive capabilities of Taiwan's U.S.-
made F-16 fighter jets.
Yang Chih-heng, an expert on Taiwan's military, called the sale a
breakthrough. Washington has in the past refused to approve sales
of such missiles to Taiwan.

[CTRL] Fwd: Where The Wild Things Are

2000-10-01 Thread Aleisha Saba

This is a letter from the daughter of Anton LaVey (real name Levy) to
Aquinas..

Note the reference to her mother being Diana, the Huntress (Charles
Spencer of course, brother of the Princess of Wales, referred to the
little Princess of Wales, Diana, as the Huntress who became the
hunted...Acts 19 is good for anyhing to do with sabotage an death of
Diana timed datewise to her death and sabatoge of Apollo).

Anyway, you get into this stuff and like Promethus..which symbolizes
a lot of things in military - you might see why a Colonel (wasn't he in
reserves, not regular army) might be put into stuff like this?

Regardless, this letter reveals quite a bit = under subject matter you
can bring up stuff on LaVey who haed Judeo Christian bible - yet used it
for all its worth..but this Hollywood connection is always good, is
it not - they know the key of propaganda and the effects of drugs and
hypnotic mind control, i.e. Littleton - made the movie first, then the
kids got onto the stage with big real AK's and finished the job on a
live stage

So notes I have dating back to 1969 show hookup to our space program and
sabatoge equating to some of this stuff..all wear masques..when

Zeena Schreck
The following is a letter from Zeena LaVey to Michael Aquino (Temple Of
Set)
Back
 

RADIO WEREWOLF Ministry of Propaganda  Public Enlightenment
 
 
30 December 1990/XXVAS
Dear Dr. Aquino:

With the dawning of a new year, I felt this to be an ideal time to
communicate some thoughts to you that I trust shall bring about a new
awareness in many regards.

First of all, you should be aware that as of 30 April, 1990 (Anno XXV) I
officially and ritually ended my position as Church of Satan
representative-defender and daughter of Anton LaVey. This ritual brought
all contact between myself and the Church of Satan, including my
unfather, to a complete cessation. Although I felt it my responsibility
as a sincere advocate of the unnamable forces we experience to attempt
to fight off the Judeo-Christian hysteria of the '80s, I became too
disgusted with the organization and the individual I was foolishly
standing in for to continue this charade in "good" conscience.

While I have no regrets in my battle with the forces of ignorance, and
my own unswerving dedication to _my_ religion has only grown, I could no
longer defend such an ungrateful and unworthy individual as the
so-called Black Pope.

I feel it is only just that I give credit where credit is due, and
acknowledge that you have been quite correct about many aspects of the
modus operandi of the Church of Satan's fearless leader. Essentially, he
is a coward and could not possibly deal with the hostility that we have
had to encounter in publicly defending our beliefs. Despite this
repellent lack of warrior spirit or pride on his part, he was filled,
and still is, with petty jealous criticism of my efforts. This was easy
for him to do from the safe vantage point of the comfortable and
risk-free easy chair we know he has lived in for decades.

Besides my public appearances, I have also made many valuable and
unprecedented contacts with police and law enforcement officials in the
interest of providing more enlightened treatment of Satanists
everywhere.

Of course, the mighty "High Priest" succeeded in sabotaging these
efforts to his own disadvantage, in addition to the disadvantage of all
practicing magicians. I believe he is, through his ostrich-in-the-sand
stance, a detriment to any attempt at halting the scapegoat fever that
has entered all of "our" private lives. Indeed, his irresponsible
laziness has repeatedly and ignorantly endangered my life as well as the
lives of many who were misguided enough to support him.

The most recent and blatant example of this may be found in the
publication of the absurd catalogue of lies entitled _Secret Life of a
Satanist_ by (as told to) Blanche Barton. This fluffy PR release
masquerading as a book included, with typical irresponsibility, a photo
of my son without ever seeking his or my permission.

Like all of the self-serving bullshit printed in this volume, the
malignant use of an innocent child to buttress a flagging reputation and
self- esteem is a new low point in a career already dotted with depths.
For your information, despite Barton's claim, Anton LaVey has never
given "tutelage" of any sort to his grandson. In fact my son was shocked
and angered at being hypocritically exploited by his
grandfather's pathetic effort to portray himself as a loving family man.

Furthermore, despite the fact that this biography was printed long after
my resignation, Barton knowingly lied by perpetuating the idea that I
have anything at all to do with CoS and its founder. If Barton chooses
to spin other falsehoods

The only source for the course of battle in the Trojan War is Homer. Yet
even with Homer, many scholars question whether such a war ever took

 A clever idea, but it turns out to be non-factual. The two names are
 completely unrelated.

 Much of the writer's thesis is reasonable enough; too bad he or she wrapped
 it around an etymological association which is demonstrably false.

  [...] the

 I'm pretty sure this one is a false, too, but can't affirm 100%.

[CTRL] 'Right of first night'

2000-10-01 Thread Kelly

-Caveat Lector-

 China says Vatican's newest saints were sinners, rapists

snip

 Crescitelli "was notorious for taking the 'right of the first night' of
 each bride under his diocese," the State Administration of Religious
 Affairs said in the statement, also run by Xinhua.

I've heard of the 'right of the first night' in association with the
British land owners in Ireland and also in association with slave owners
in the US south.  Does anyone know where this 'tradition' started
(probably in the first cave inhabited by humans) or have any information
or studies related to this so-called 'right'?

Homosexual-Recruitment Drive Nearing Goal

SAN FRANCISCO -- Spokespersons for the National Gay  Lesbian Recruitment
Task Force announced Monday that more than 288,000 straights have been
converted to homosexuality since Jan. 1, putting the group well on pace to
reach its goal of 350,000 conversions by the end of the year.

"Thanks to the tireless efforts of our missionaries nationwide, in the first
seven months of this year, nearly 300,000 heterosexuals were ensnared in the
Pink Triangle," said NGLRTF co-director Patricia Emmonds. "Clearly, the
activist homosexual lobby is winning."

Emmonds credited much of the recruiting success to the gay lobby's
infiltration of America's public schools, where programs promoting the
homosexual lifestyle are regularly presented to children as young as 5.

"It's crucial that we reach these kids while they're still young," Emmonds
said. "That's when they're most vulnerable to our message of sexual
promiscuity and deviance."

"When I grow up, I want to be gay," said Christopher Linn, 8, a second-grader
at Philadelphia's Lakeside Elementary School, one of thousands of public
schools nationwide that actively promote the homosexual agenda. "I don't want
to have a family or go to church."

"Straight people don't have any fun," said Teddy Nance, 11, after watching
Breeders Are Boring!, an anti-heterosexual filmstrip, in his fifth-grade
class at Crestwood Elementary School in Roanoke, VA. "Gay people get to do
whatever they want."

In addition to school programs that target youths, the NGLRTF launched a $630
million advertising campaign this year in an effort to convert adults to
homosexuality. The campaign, which features TV and radio spots, as well as
print advertising in major national magazines, has helped convince thousands
of people to leave their spouses and families for a life of
self-gratification and irresponsibility.

"The gay lifestyle is for me," said James Miller, an Oklahoma City father of
four who recently moved to Provincetown, MA, to pursue a career in bath-house
management. "When I was a family man, I constantly had to worry about things
like taking the kids to Little League practice, paying for their braces, and
remembering my wife's birthday. But now that I'm gay, I'm finally free to
focus all my energy on having non-stop, mind-blowing anal sex."

Though Emmonds said gays have been tremendously successful in tearing at the
fabric of society and subverting basic decency, she stressed that their work
is far from over.

"For all the progress we've made, America is still overwhelmingly
heterosexual," said Emmonds, who is calling for an additional $2.6 billion in
federal aid to further the gay agenda. "If we are to insidiously penetrate
American society, as we constantly do each other's orifices, we need more
money and resources. Without such help, this country will remain the domain
of decent, moral, God-fearing Christians. And that would be a sin."

Withering Democracy
By Russell Mokhiber and Robert Weissman

For all but the ideologically committed or deluded few who believe
corporations and their executives make contributions out of a sense of
civic obligation, there can be little doubt that the U.S. campaign finance
system is fundamentally corrupt, and corrupting.

But it would be a mistake to make this observation and reach the obvious
conclusion that the current system of private contributions must be
replaced by a system of public financing, and then fail to dig further.
Because the available campaign finance data provides a host of insights
into the pattern of corporate investment in politics and politicians in
the United States.

Superb new data collections from the invaluable Center for Responsive
Politics (CRP, data at www.opensecrets.org) detail the nature of major
industrial sector contribution patterns over the last decade, compiling
contributions from individuals affiliated with industries, political
action committee (PAC) contributions and soft money donations (made to the
political parties). Here is some of what their data shows:

1. Every single major industrial sector except for communications/
electronics now favors the Republican Party. The CRP industry groupings
are: agribusiness; communications/electronics; construction; defense;
energy/natural resources; finance/insurance/real estate; health;
transportation; and a catch-all miscellaneous business category, including
liquor, casinos, chemicals, food, advertising, steel production and
textiles.

The communications/electronics contributions lean slightly toward the
Democrats, powered by contributions from Hollywood. The TV/movie/music
sector, constituting about a third of overall donations from the
communications/electronics sector, gives more than 60 percent of its
contributions to Democrats.

2. Despite the overall tilt to the Republicans, every major industrial
sector contributes large sums to the Democrats as well. Agribusiness and
energy/natural resources, two of the most pro-Republican industries, gave
the Democrats $69 million and $64 million, respectively, in the election
cycles from 1990 to 2000.

3. The only reliably Democratic supporters are lawyers/lobbyists
(reflecting trial lawyer contributions) and labor. Lawyers/lobbyists
directed nearly 70 percent of their contributions to the Democrats. Labor
sent more than 90 percent of its monies to the Dems.

4. The major shift to the Republicans followed the 1994 elections, in
which the Republicans took control of both houses of Congress. Corporate
contributions generally flow to the majority party, both because it has
more incumbents and the companies seek to win influence with those in
office, and because the majority party controls the legislative agenda.

5. Of the major industrial sectors, agribusiness, construction,
energy/natural resources and transportation, plus the miscellaneous
business category, appear firmly entrenched in the Republican camp. They
favored the Republicans even when they were the minority in Congress, and
now favor them by large margins. The health industries and
finance/insurance/real estate both give about 60 percent of their
contributions to the Republicans, while defense gives an even higher share
to the GOP, but each of these sectors split their contributions relatively
evenly when the Democrats controlled Congress. Communications/electronics
companies now divide their contributions evenly, and favored the Democrats
in the elections through 1994.

6. The broad sector totals may in some cases obscure differences within
industry groupings. For example, in the energy sector, while oil and gas
have always been staunchly Republican, now giving more than three-fourths
of their contributions to the Party of Lincoln, electric utilities have
tilted more Democratic. Although about two-thirds of utility money now
goes to the Republicans, utilities favored the Democrats when they
controlled Congress. In the finance sector, real estate firms and
securities/investment banks have shaded more Democratic than insurance
companies and commercial banks. The former now give about 43 percent of
their monies to the Democrats, while insurance companies and commercial
banks give only one-third to the minority party. In general, however,
industrial sectors appear to act in concert.

7. Specific sector contributions spike at certain periods, correlating
with Congressional consideration of major legislation of interest to
particular industries. Agribusiness contributions rise prior to adoption
of the periodic Farm Bill. Communications/electronic contributions nearly
doubled from 1994 to 1996, prior to adoption of the 1996
Telecommunications Act.

NIXON'S TREASON: He Stopped an Early Peace in Vietnam
Thu, 21 Sep 2000
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (D. Flynn)

Looks like the Republicans sabotaged an October Surprise before 1980.


NIXON'S TREASON: He Stopped an Early Peace in Vietnam
Drugs, Wife-Beating -- What About 20,000 American Dead?

Marty Jezer is the author of The Dark Ages; Life in the USA and
Abbie Hoffman (on which the new movie, Steal This Movie, is
based).



A new biography of Richard Nixon has made media headlines in
recent weeks: mostly for the wrong reasons. The Arrogance of
Power: The Secret World of Richard Nixon by Anthony Summers
makes the claim that Nixon beat his wife in 1962 and that in
1974 he was so looped from self-prescribing the mood-altering
prescription drug Dilantin that his Secretary of Defense, James
R. Schlesinger, had to tell military commanders to confirm all
orders emanating from the White House with the Pentagon or the
State Department.

The wife-beating story is obviously second hand. No one can
possibly verify it except Pat and Dick, and they're dead.
Summers tries to puff it up by claiming that Nixon's
psychological profile fits that of typical batterers. Nixon may
have been a bastard but there's no hard evidence that he was a
batterer. Violence against women is serious business, but even
Richard Nixon deserves to be considered innocent until proven
guilty.

The sources for the Dilantin include Schlesinger himself, as
well as Jack Dreyfus, the founder of the Dreyfus Fund, who
apparently loved Dilantin so much he gave bottles of
one-thousand 100 milligram capsules to all his friends. The
Dreyfus story adds to other absurdist stories of the Nixon
presidency. Recall Nixon's famous photo-op with Elvis Presley.
In order to gain credibility with young people, Nixon deputized
Elvis to help fight the war on drugs. Presley, of course, was
zonked at the time.

There is a third major accusation that Summers makes in his
biography. And this, a consequential historical story, has been
ignored by the media. In order to win the presidential campaign
of 1968, Summers says, candidate Nixon undermined a serious
initiative to end the Vietnam War.

This is not the first time that this charge has been raised.

Tom Wicker, in his 1991 book, One of Us, Richard Nixon and the
American Dream, cites, but then dismisses, intelligence reports
that "high-level Nixon campaign officials" tried to reach South
Vietnam's President Nguyen Van Thieu to urge him to oppose a
peace initiative that President Johnson was negotiating with
the North Vietnamese. To Wicker, it was "hard to believe" that
Nixon would undermine an effort to end the war. "Obviously, it
would be fatal for the Nixon campaign to be connected with an
effort to delay a bombing halt, possibly a peace settlement,
for domestic political purposes," Wicker says.

In writing his biography, Wicker ignored Seymour Hersh's 1983
book, The Price of Power: Kissinger in the White House.  In it,
Hersh describes Henry Kissinger as advising the Democrats on
Vietnam policy and then secretly reporting what he knew about
peace negotiations to the Nixon campaign.

This contact, between Kissinger and Nixon, is confirmed in RN,
Nixon's memoir. According to Nixon, Kissinger warned him in
September 1968 that Johnson would call a bombing halt in late
October. Johnson and Democratic presidential candidate Hubert
Humphrey had finally come to understand that to win the
election they would have to find a way out of the war and, in
late October, there was movement in Hanoi and Washington
towards starting peace negotiations.

Hersh describes Nixon sending Anna Chennault to lobby South
Vietnamese President Thieu to urge him to obstruct the effort
to start peace negotiations. Chennault was a vice president of
the Republican election finance committee and chairwoman of
Republican Women for Nixon. As head of Flying Tiger Airlines, a
company originally formed, with CIA backing, to assist Chiang
Kai-shek in his war against the Chinese Communists, Mrs.
Chennault had high-level contacts in the South Vietnamese
government.


[CTRL] Rudolph Steiner and the War of all against All

2000-10-01 Thread Justine Blake

-Caveat Lector-

Yes, of course. I see.

Conspiracy theory sure is becoming predictable of late. Every time I ask
just so many questions, eventually I'm led back to the 4-dimensional satanic
entities. I've read Colin Wilson's "The Philosopher's Stone", and "The Mind
Parasites". Wilson's a pretty damn good writer.

I don't know about the Borgs. But I can believe in the satanic entities as
far as it goes. It's in the Book of Revelations about the End Times and all.
You wrote: "We all feel this every single day, that forces, somewhere are
interviening heavily into our lives...", well I can understand that, but
dont' forget the forces that work for the good, like the Bible says.

Yeah, I'd sure like to hear more about Steiner and Stegmann. I was an a
Steiner email list group, but they weren't really posting anything of much
interest to me.
Justine
Sig Heil!


  I prefer willing sex slaves myself.  But more to the point:  Here and
again, posted in this list has been references to a rather mysterious
personality named Rudolph Steiner (1864-1925); an Austrian philosopher,
occultist, educator (the Waldorf Schools), clairvoyant, perhaps the best
ever known.  I have attempted to study this man's works for over 30 years.
In my opionio (sp?) (you know 'onion with a 'p' in front) he is one of the
most neglected genusis of the century.
One cannot just pick up any book or printed lecture by this guy and streight
way make sense of it.  His lectures and books were built on primary
knowledge basis that had to be understood before one went on with his ideas.
In this way he is like Heidigger, and (you know) the phenomanology
philosophers whose names escape me and I couldn't spell anyway.
But the matter at hand is what he said about the end of the century and
matters going into the 21st.  The most dire idea was what he called the 'War
of all against all."  That it could be in full flames (like right now).
In the 1970's I spoke at length (over many occassions) with a German priest
by the name of Carl Stegmann.  Stegmann was in his eighties, his intellect,
clear as a bell.  He had personally known Rudloph Steiner.  During this time
Stegmann wrote two books published as manuscript titled: "The Other America"
'The Western World in Light of Spiritual Science'.  These are not lite
reading and require some familiarity with Steiner's basic ideas.  (BTW
Steiner was associated with the Theosophy movement and Madame Blavatsky at
the turn of the century).
I intend to publish some of these thoughts of Stegmann and Steiner to this
list (that is, when I can get time to get them together).  The reason being
that events such as we are witnessing on a daily basis cannot be understood
from the so-called normal materialistic intellect.  We have to consider
spiritual forces playing heavily upon mankind at this time and these will
only increase in the future. It is man's destiny to incarnate physically,
but we form a unity with intelligences that are non material; called angels
of various types, and spirits that are very dark in their nature, highly
intelligent, strong willed with an agenda that harks back to myth and the
Bible.
Due to our earth bound orientation many experiences from 'other realms'
become UFO, invasion from Mars or what ever.  When, in reality, most of
these are really spiritual experiences that we are not familiar.  That is
all changing.  This is not to say UFO's are just a twinkling of our
reemerging 3rd eye, some may be very tangible.
The jest of the battle now taking place is that new forces are emerging in
mankind as a whole.  We will eventually reacquire the clairvoyant faculties
that were lost when the last islands of Alantis sunk.  This will introduce
us into an entirely new world and enrich mankind.  But they are forces whose
nature makes them want to rule us and eventually turn us into themselves.
That would mean becoming part of the "Borg" if I may borrow that term from
TV.
The "Borg" wish to keep us  blind and materialistic as possible; to forment
troubles between every group of people, to split families, to control our
thinking in all possible ways.
You see the "Borg" or evil ones cannot change the fact that mankind will
evolve these new faculities (to ever greater heights over several thousand
years) but they wish to control that new vision and experience and channel
it into directions that suit their evolution, not ours.
Those souls that take up "Borgness", as it were, will lose their
individuality, their will, and in time, be torn out of the cosmic pattern
that mankind is destined to obtain.
Now, I admit, ideas like this are not necessairly new nor do they lead
themselves to 'sound-bite' mentality; nor to rabid bible or Koran 'thumpers'
simplistic intreputations.
But for me, when I really begain to look at events from the perspective of
Steiner and Stegmann, events which has been totally a mystery begin to
become somewhat transparent.  The manipulation was immediately visible when
connecting the dots.

Within the Veil

By Pamela Newkirk

Editor's Note: Pamela Newkirk is a Professor of Journalism at New York
University who won a Pulitzer Prize for her daily news reporting and now
writes regularly for The Nation magazine. Her penetrating new book Within the
Veil gives us an insider's view of America's newsrooms. We get to hear the
discussions and debates between key players, and hear why race rarely fades
into the background of the coverage we see. This is a subject dear to my
heart, given that I published a statistics-heavy book on race and the media
called Don't Believe the Hype, excerpted elsewhere on this site.


--

Excerpt from Chapter 1 of Within the Veil (New York University Press), by
Pamela Newkirk

"Leaving, then, the white world, I have stepped within the Veil, raising it
that you may view faintly its deeper recesses, -- the meaning of its
religion, the passion of its human sorrow, and the struggle of its greater
souls." - W.E.B. DuBois, 1903

In 1994, Time correspondent Sylvester Monroe proposed a story on Nation of
Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan whose appeal he argued was far more complex
than the media had portrayed. Monroe noted Farrakhan's popularity among
blacks across class and ideological lines, drawn to his passionate brew of
rage and pride, and his prescription for economic self-sufficiency,
discipline, and family values. But despite the controversy Farrakhan's racial
rhetoric often provoked, Monroe noted that none of the national news
magazines had ever provided for readers an in-depth profile that pierced the
surface of his racially-charged sound-bites.

However Monroe, who hoped to infuse the story with his intimate grasp of
black America, did not anticipate how difficult it would be to filter so
unconventional and controversial a black figure as Farrakhan through the
prism of white interest that is the mainstream news media. Nor did he predict
the emotional white backlash within Time as word spread that Farrakhan would
appear on the cover.

"People in the bureaus were demanding to know why we were putting him on the
cover," recalled Monroe, who had earned journalistic acclaim for "Brothers,"
his moving portrait of the black men he had grown up with in a Chicago
housing project that had been a Newsweek cover story, and later a book. "They
said he doesn't deserve this kind of attention. A researcher came to me and
said 'This is shameful.' I later heard she was in tears. My response was
'we're journalists here. What we think of him should have nothing to do with
it. We put Adolph Hitler and Khomeni on the cover.' It was the most
disingenuous argument for not doing a story that I had ever heard."

For many of Monroe's white colleagues, a cover story on Farrakhan was an
affront. Since Farrakhan's role in the black community was, to whites,
largely inconsequential, they could not fathom raising his stature merely on
the basis of the aspect of him they cared about: his virulent racial views.
It's one thing to present a one-dimensional sketch to remind people he was
anti-Semitic, but quite another to suggest his importance and complexity by
dedicating a cover story to him.

This argument is similar to one made by critics of the media's intense
coverage that same year of The Bell Curve, a book by the late Richard J.
Herrnstein and Charles Murray that theorized that blacks were genetically
inferior to whites. All three major newsweeklies and The New York Times
magazine, seriously entertained the notion of black inferiority by devoting
cover stories to a question that their coverage left unanswered. The
preposterousness of race -- a loose social construct, which, in our society
is determined less by genes than by appearance -- having the ability to
determine intelligence was hardly explored.

Scientists and anthropologists have long maintained that race is not a
biologically valid scientific concept. The American Association of Physical
Anthropologists has declared that pure races do not exist, and maybe never
had. How the theory in The Bell Curve could be seriously considered in spite
of centuries of interracial mixing underscored the

[CTRL] Muzzling civil society

2000-10-01 Thread Yardbird

: * News Release Issued by the International Secretariat of Amnesty
: International *
: AI Index MDE 12/028/2000
: News Service Nr. 175
: 19 September 2000

: Egypt

: Muzzling Civil Society

: "Human rights activists, political opponents and journalists are
: targeted
: among others by the Egyptian authorities because they peacefully
: exercise
: their rights of freedom of expression." Amnesty International said in a
: report released today.

: In the report "Muzzling the civil society", Amnesty International said
: "The authorities in Egypt are sending a clear message to the country's
: civil society by detaining and imprisoning, those who publicly criticize

: or oppose the government's policies."

: The report highlights how people in Egypt continue to be imprisoned for
: "offences" which merely amount to the exercise of their rights to
: freedom
: of expression and association.

: For example during the period leading up to the parliamentary elections
: due in October and November 2000, the risk of opposing activists to be
: detained has increased significantly.

: In the latest clampdown, hundreds of alleged Muslim Brothers have been
: detained under broad charges, such as "membership of an illegal
: organization". By the end of August 2000, at least 150 of them were
: still
: in detention.

: A group of 20 professionals, including a former member of Parliament,
: accused of membership of the banned Muslim Brothers organization is
: being
: tried before a military court since the end of last year. The verdict
: was
: due to be pronounced in July 2000, but has been postponed until 7
: November
: which fits in the pattern of the government sparing no effort in
: preventing political opponents from participating in the elections.

: During the nineties, new Egyptian legislation has progressively
: restricted the exercise of the rights to freedom of expression and
: association. These include the Anti-terror Law, the Press Law and the
: law on Civil Associations and Institutions.

: Journalists have been imprisoned for libelling officials. On 8 April
: 2000
: an appeal court upheld the sentences of two years imprisonment of Magdi
: Hussein and Salah Badawi, in a libel case brought against journalists of

: an opposition party's newspaper, al-Sha'ab (The People), by a government

: minister. Issam al-Din Hanafi, cartoonist of the newspaper, was
: sentenced
: to one years imprisonment in the same case. The newspaper al-Sha'ab has
: been banned from publication since May 2000.

: Human rights defenders and NGO activists have been targeted for
: reporting
: on human rights violations in the country. Hafez Abu Saada, Secretary
: General of the Egyptian Organization for Human Rights (EOHR) was
: detained
: in December 1998 in connection with an EOHR report on human rights
: violations in the predominantly Coptic Christian village of al-Kushh.

: In February 2000 the General Prosecution Office announced that the case
: against Hafez Abu Saada would be referred for trial before the
: (Emergency)
: Supreme State Security Court (ESSSC). However, subsequently Hafez Abu
: Sa‘ada received oral assurances from the authorities that his case would

: not be pursued.

: Members of religious groups are among others targeted for exercising
: their
: right to freedom of belief. Manal Wahid Mana'i, the alleged leader of a
: religious group and several of her followers were arrested at the end of

: the year and accused of attributing divine status to a late Sufi
: religious
: leader. On 5 September, she was sentenced to five years' imprisonment
: and
: 12 of her followers received sentences ranging from six months to three
: years' Imprisonment.

: Freedom of expression in Egypt is also threatened by armed Islamist
: groups
: who failed to revoke calls for the killing of civilians whom they
: consider
: to be political enemies or "atheists", including intellectuals, writers
: and academics.

: Amnesty International calls on the Egyptian authorities to comply with
: its
: international obligations and to release immediately and unconditionally

: all prisoners of conscience, who are detained for their political,
: religious or other conscientiously held beliefs and who have not used or

: advocated violence.

MER EXCLUSIVE:

ISRAEL - LAND OF APARTHEID

By Professor Tanya Reinhart*

"It is not Sharon who is responsible for the present
massacre, but Barak, Ben Ami, the Israeli government,
and Israel's 'peacenicks' who have been supporting
them all the way through...  Israel has become the
landof apartheid."

In today's setting, it is hard to recall that just a few years ago,
only some fringe lunatics demanded Israeli control of 'Temple Mount'.
Every time they tried to enter the place and pray, Israeli police
would be there to block their entrance or drag them out.  Even the
word 'Temple Mount' was perceived as belonging to the bizarre
vocabulary of religious fanatics.

Today it is the Israeli government that launches the holy war.
Israel's foreign affairs minister - the ex-liberal Shlomo Ben-Ami -
declares day and night that "no nation can give up its sacred
sites" and the world nodes and accepts.

Sharon could not have entered the site without approval of Barak
and the government. His visit had been carefully planned, with a
thousand soldiers securing it and taking shooting positions on the
roofs in advance. It is not Sharon who is responsible for the present
massacre, but Barak, Ben Ami, the Israeli government, and Israel's
"peacenicks" who have been supporting them all the way through.

Israel's claim on 'Temple Mount' is completely new - brought up only
since the recent Camp David negotiations.  In 1995's Beilin-AbuMaazen
plan for the final agreement, which is the basis for the present
'negotiations', it was still stated that the area will be in
'exterritorial Palestinian sovereignty'(1). The more Arafat gives
in, the more new demands are brought up by Israel.

The Beilin- AbuMazen document, itself, is a shameful document, which
leaves all the settlements untouched, and acknowledges Israeli
sovereignty over most of the central West Bank.

It was agreed that Arafat will renounce, on behalf of the Palestinians,
any claim on Jerusalem, and the Palestinian institutions will move to
the village Abu-Dis, bordering with Jerusalem.  In return, Arafat will
be allowed to call Abu-Dis the capital of the Palestinian state. The
verbal trick was that Abu-Dis will be named Al-Quds, so it can be
presented like the city is divided to the Jewish part 'Jerusalem' and
the Palestinian part 'Al Quds'.

Arafat has agreed to this long time ago.  E.g. in 'Haaretz' 5.5.98
(Akiva Eldar) it is reported that "Yaser Arafat accepts the idea that
the capital of the Palestinian state will be Abu-Dis, neighboring
Jerusalem, and sees the understandings included in Beilin-AbuMaazen
agreement as a realistic option for the final agreement with Israel".

"In a meeting with the Middle East section of the Council on Foreign
Relations in New York Arafat was asked if it is possible to reach an
agreement with Israel also on the question of Jerusalem.  Arafat:
'Certainly, it is possible to accept the idea of Abu-Dis, which
belonged to Al-Quds also under Jordanian rule"

Even that was not good enough for Barak.  In the original Beilin-
AbuMazen plan, only the land with the Jewish settlements of the
central West Bank (labelled "Jerusalem") was to be annexed.  So they
prepared a rather windy map that includes these settlements but
includes no Palestinians.  Israel's interest in doing it this way was
to avoid the need of giving these Palestinians Israeli citizenship
including social rights - health etc, or political rights of voting.

Barak 'straightened' the maps.  The annexation proposed in Camp David
will include also the areas with Palestinian residents.  But these
residents will not be given Israeli citizenship, since "they will
vote for the Palestinian state".  This additional little trick then
enables annexing the land without giving any rights to the annexed
Palestinian residents(2).

It appears that the Palestinian negotiators in Camp David have also
agreed to this proposal. Or at least we have never heard otherwise.

But then Barak came up with the new demand that the Palestinians will
also renounce their hold in Al Aksa (Tenmple Mount). Even a collaborator
like Arafat cannot accept such demands and survive.

No rational account could tie these

Molegate Suspect Praying for Truth to Come Out

Molegate suspect Yvette Lozano has hired a lawyer and says she's
praying for the truth to come out and clear her.

Lozano made her comments to ABC's Jackie Judd as the FBI
investigation into how a Bush debate-prep tape ended up in the
hands of a senior Gore aide zeroed in on the young raven-haired
assistant to George W. Bush's media man, Mark McKinnon.

In a segment broadcast Sunday morning on ABC's "This Week," Judd
asked Lozano, "Would you put your hand on a Bible and say, 'It
wasn't me?'"

"Absolutely, absolutely" Lozano shot back without a moment's
hesitation. "I pray a rosary every night I pray for the truth
to come out."

Lozano works for Maverick Media, the consulting firm run by
McKinnon, who vouched for her innocense to Judd. "I've known
Yvette for over ten years now. She's been like a surrogate mother
to my children. I know she's loyal to the governor but I also
know she's 100 percent loyal to me."

In the past, McKinnon has worked for Bush family enemies like
former Democratic governors Michael Dukakis and Ann Richards,
prompting the FBI to focus on his company.

Investigators have confiscated both Lozano's home and office
computers. She has offered to take a lie detetctor test to
bolster her denials.

Bush spokeswoman Karen Hughes also described Lozano as innocent
and suggested that the FBI's Molegate probe has been politicized.

"I hope that someone in Washington is not somehow playing
politics with this investigation by selectively leaking
information to the press," Hughes said Saturday.

On Friday, United Press International reported that the FBI had
begun questioning Gore officials in Washington after focusing
exclusively on the Bush camp for more than a week. But the FBI
has released almost no information about that side of the
investigation.

Molegate slipped into high gear a week ago when a source told ABC
News that 28-year-old Gore staffer Michael Doyne had boasted that
the campaign had a mole in Austin. After signing conflicting
affidavits, Doyne was suspended.

Re: [CTRL] 'Right of first night'

2000-10-01 Thread Robert F. Tatman

-Caveat Lector-

Kelly, to the best of my knowledge, this "first night" custom was a survival
from the medieval *jus primae noctis* [apologies if my Latin is bad] or "law of
the first night," under which the seigneur of the manor (usually a baron in
England) had the right to insist on sleeping with each bride on the first night
after her marriage.  The assumption has always been that this also entailed
deflowering the (presumably) virgin bride, although that was probably not always
the case, especially when the seigneur was, shall we say, beyond the "virile
years."   Beyond the medieval custom, which obtained universally wherever
feudalism held sway, I have no idea where it could have originated.  The purpose
was obviously two-fold: first, to establish the seigneur as alpha male--"top dog
in the pack;" and second, to ensure a plentiful supply of bastards to act as
reliable officers for the seigneur without the temptations of money and power
always present for legitimate heirs.

You can check any good social history of the Middle Ages to confirm what I've
written.

Dear List,

Below please find a url with information about a lawsuit against ElectriCiti,
an Internet provider.

Sincerely,  Neil Brick

all accusations are alleged

excerpt from : http://www5.electriciti.com/curious/

Aquino vs ElectriCiti Inc

On February 19, 1997, Michael and Lilith Aquino filed suit against
ElectriCiti Inc., a California Internet Service Provider, claiming negligence
and infliction of emotional distress. The Aquinos charge that "an individual
who uses the Internet name of Curio has been posting defamatory messages
regarding the plaintiffs to various Internet newsgroups" and that
"ElectriCiti has not only permitted Curio to continue the postings, but has
actively assisted Curio in making these postings." The Aquinos go on to
charge that "ElectriCiti's actions in aiding and abetting Curio are done
knowingly and willfully and with the specific intent to injure plaintiffs.
ElectriCiti is acting with malice and oppression such that punitive damages
are appropriate." The plaintiffs seek $250,000 in damages, plus attorneys
fees and costs.

The fact is that ElectriCiti does not know the identity of Curio, or even
know if Curio is an ElectriCiti customer. Curio apparently uses a variety of
aliases and different Internet accounts to post transcripts of court
proceedings

Well Mike I did not write this report and MSNBC has the following
report; please note, a poor Moslem age 25 said he fought because he was
fighting over religion.well he might be and he domestic jew and arab
might be - but this is about oil.

Jordan and Saudi Arabia and Arab Leage will not tolerate this slaughter
- consider Israelies armed with AKs and Uzzis and missiles and then
Palestinians throwing stonessounds like some of the Israelies took
some training at Seattle or Waco like the Japanese sniper?

MSNBC gives same statisticsme, I will watch and wait.so Ralph
Nader is arabic - why does he not speak out and Joe Lieberman is Jewish
- where is he now?

Do you see Madeline sending in storm troopers as she did in the Balkans?
Where did Israelies get all those arms and you wonder why we have an oil
shortage?

Zionists want the oil...they are not a religion.they would sit
back and see evry domestic jew and arab killed to get the oil, and
why.why because this is what the bible says will happen

So let them fight it out.but that oil nobody will get for the Arabs
are not stupid and will blow those fields to hell and back..

Blood is thicker than water and this thing is being pushed.note the
masked assassins like at Seattle - snipers, murdered children - wasn't
it Putin who said he would make graphic example of those in Chechnya to
see what would happen if they opposed him so they let a little 14 year
old boys legs be amputatedthe iniquities of the fathers being
visited upon the children.

Why is it necessary for killers and snipers to wear a mask - answer is
obvious - who are these snipers are they KGB?   Did Henry Kissinger KGB
Agent Code Name Bor send them in.

Who the hell do these Israelies think they are walking around with AKs
for which we paid, and then turning these guns on kids and civilians
armed with stones?

Maybe it would be wise to capture one of these masked men and find out
for whom they work for it is obviously an attempt to trigger the Holy
War between the believers ..then who takes over if there is anything
left to take over.slaughter of the innocents all timed to 2001
millenium perhaps?

Bid to end bloody Mideast clashes
Palestinians throw stones at Israeli soldiers during clashes in the
street near the Augusta Victoria Hospital in east Jerusalem on Sunday.
NBC's Tom Aspell reports from Israel on the worst violence in four
years. (Contains graphic images.)
MSNBC STAFF AND WIRE REPORTSJERUSALEM, Oct. 1 —   As
Israeli and Palestinian leaders pledged late Sunday to halt the
escalating violence, the grim toll from four days of clashes climbed to
29 Palestinian supporters dead, including two 12-year-old boys, and more
than 700 wounded. An Israeli officer also died from injuries he suffered
during clashes in Nablus, one of the many flashpoints in fighting that
threatened to torpedo months of negotiations on a comprehensive peace
agreement between the hostile neighbors.





 Aspell reports on clashes spreading to Arab Israeli towns
   IN SEPARATE STATEMENTS, Israeli and Palestinian officials
said there was agreement for both sides to end the violence.
   Israeli acting Foreign Minister Shlomo Ben-Ami's office
said Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar told Ben-Ami that he had
received a message from Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat that the
fighting would be stopped Sunday evening.
   Palestinian official Nabil Abu Rdainah told Reuters that
the Israelis had offered to stop firing. "We will wait and see if they
will continue to respect their commitments tomorrow," Rdainah said.
   Witnesses in the West Bank and Gaza said their regions
appeared to have quieted down.
   The latest fighting came as Israeli and Palestinian peace
negotiators traded harsh accusations instead of new ideas on how to
solve their disputes.
   The clashes were triggered by a visit last week by the
leader of Israel's hawkish opposition, Ariel Sharon, to a contested
Jerusalem shrine, known to Jews as the Temple Mount and to Muslims as
the Noble Sanctuary.
   Sharon denied Sunday that he was responsible for the
violence. "The riots are part of Arafat's policy of applying pressure on
Israel and the Americans when he doesn't get what he wants," Sharon
said.
   In four days of widespread clashes, 29 Palestinians have
been killed by Israeli fire — six Friday at the Jerusalem shrine, 14
across the West Bank and Gaza on Saturday and nine in gun battles
Sunday.

ANTI-TANK MISSILES, GUNSHIPS
   The scale of the clashes increased dramatically Sunday as
Israeli troops fired anti-tank missiles, hurled grenades and shot from
helicopter gunships. Several Israeli tanks rumbled toward the
Palestinian-run towns of Nablus and Ramallah in a warning gesture but
did not cross the lines of jurisdiction.

-Caveat Lector-

Poor slob..."SOMEBODY" is really doing a number on him.  I still
say it sounds like a few implant researchers AND a few RAV
techncians at Groom Lake have their way with him...that they
somehow have gotten a microphone/transmitting implant into him so
that they can hear him when he speaks (and/or those near him), as
well as tell him things...things like when and where they will be
testing their Area 51 UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehichles) so that he
can "summons" them.

At any rate, I believe that he believes what he is telling us, as
well as that something REAL [and VERY ugly] is indeed happening
to the poor schmuck.  After all, for those not aware of him and
his "summonsings," many ppl (several VERY credible) have seen and
video taped him calling QUITE REAL UFOs.  The problem is that
these UFOs are too far away to see much detail, nor can they get
a size estimate on them becuase *coincidentally* ALL of his MANY
encounters with these things HAVE ALL OCCURRED SO THAT THEY NEVER
GET NEAR ANY FAMILIAR LAND MARKS.  The sheer number of encounters
that he himself has video taped and archived (let alone all the
ppl that taped him doing this SUCCESSFULLY) sort of makes it
beyond the realm of coincidence that NEVER EVEN ONE OF THESE
THINGS (out of LITERALLY 100s) have slipped up so that they pass
in between things of known size.  NOT EVEN CLOSE!  Seems that
they always stay beyond cloud cover so that the view of them is
often obscurred by clouds, BUT NEVER has one passed IN FRONT OF A
CLOUD (not while being taped at any rate).

In other words, to date there is no video he or anyone else has
that can demonstrate that these UFOs are any larger than several
ft long.

To me it is quite obvious that "some body" [with no good intent]
is jacking him every way but loose.

The poor, poor guy.

Inside This Issue

THE MONSOON SEASON IS ENDING AND NOW IT'S
TIME FOR ACTION! WATCH OUT NBC STATION
KNAZ CHANNEL 2 IN FLAGSTAFF!

.

Dear list, it appearing that the monsoon
season is going away. I'm now living in
Phoenix, Arizona, and just about every day
there are nothing but clear skies!

It won't be long now before the world knows
about these Superhuman Beings I serve. They
are here in Their spaceships and are talking
to me every day and instructing me on the
details for revealing Themselves to humanity.

Also, they are increasing my confidence in
Them by calling me outside, telling me where
to look and sending "metallic" UFO probes of
different shapes and sizes, while at the
same time saying things like:

" Don't worry! We are going to show up, in a
big way, before the cameras of NBC's affiliate
KNAZ TV, Channel 2 in Flagstaff, Arizona."

"Don't doubt for one moment because this is
going to be awesome! Just trust in Us and let
go of all fear and doubt."

"Just know that from the moment you call on
Us, it will be only seconds before some one
shouts while pointing to Us in the sky. They
will certainly film Our sightings, day and
night, for all their viewers to see."

"Once they film the first sighting, they
will not want to stop. They will want to film
as often as they can, both day and night."

"So prepare yourself to summon My servant.
Hesitate not to get started. Call up your
contacts at TV station KNAZ on the 2nd of
October and let them know that you are ready
to get started. Don't start before then
because you will be out of sync with Our
time schedule."

"Just know, My servant, that from that moment
on, it will be clear to all humanity that they
are not alone in the universe, that life other
than themselves does, indeed, exist, and that
that life is here demonstrating Their presence
through you. So, fear not and go forward in
truth, power, courage, and boldness."

I'm am hearing so many messages like this
throughout every day until I can not keep
up with them. There are to many of them to
keep track of.

Dear List, one thing is for sure in my mind,
and that is that NBC station: KNAZ TV
Channel 2, in Flagstaff Arizona is the first
station chosen by These Beings I serve to
verify, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that
there is life in the univers other than us
on earth!

This is a great honor for KNAZ and they are
preparing to make history!

The reason why is because if KNAZ TV 2
allows me to come to their station, bring
their cameras outside to their grounds, and
film me make my summon, they are going to
also film the first of tens of thousands of
sightings to appear to different TV stations
throughout the earth through me.

In this matter will we see if these Beings
are loyal to Their servants and keeps Their
words to them. Also, we'll see if Prophet
Yahweh is who he says he is or not!

Sincerely,

Prophet Yahweh

 Kelly, to the best of my knowledge, this "first night" custom was a survival
 from the medieval *jus primae noctis* [apologies if my Latin is bad] or "law of
 the first night," under which the seigneur of the manor (usually a baron in
 England) had the right to insist on sleeping with each bride on the first night
 after her marriage.  The assumption has always been that this also entailed
 deflowering the (presumably) virgin bride, although that was probably not always
 the case, especially when the seigneur was, shall we say, beyond the "virile
 years."   Beyond the medieval custom, which obtained universally wherever
 feudalism held sway, I have no idea where it could have originated.  The purpose
 was obviously two-fold: first, to establish the seigneur as alpha male--"top dog
 in the pack;" and second, to ensure a plentiful supply of bastards to act as
 reliable officers for the seigneur without the temptations of money and power
 always present for legitimate heirs.

 You can check any good social history of the Middle Ages to confirm what I've
 written.

From: Puck in Nevada, a simple explanation-
Sent: Friday, September 29, 2000 3:57 PM
Subject: Re: alleged oil shortage---aint funny


 I gotta put in my 2 cents worth about what I have picked
 up on this along the way about this alleged oil shortage.

 First, I once was aquainted with a petroleum geologist.
 Retired now, and lost track of him long ago, but he had
 some very interesting observations on oil supply. Keeping
 in mind that he had worked all over the world for Standard
 Oil, including Saudi, West Texas and our Gulf Coast, he
 made the following observations and statements.

 There is more oil under the US than the entire Persian
 Gulf. We literally have a glut of oil reserves.  During the
 alleged oil shortage of the mid-70's, he told me that many
 wells they drilled in West Texas were good producers,
 but capped and declared as dusters on paper. I can't see
 where he would have any reason to lie to me.

 During the 70's, I helped my younger sister do a school
 term paper on the alleged oil shortage. My statistical basis
 was the Wall Street Journal's daily published numbers on
 total imported crude vs. domestic refinery production. It
 was there for the world to see if they cared to look, but
 our domestic PROVDA and ISVESTIA chose to ignore
 this glaring and ugly discrepency.

 The fact is, barrels of imported crude remainded stable
 but domestic refinery production dropped to zip.  This
 clearly proves that the alleged "shortage" was a conspiracy
 by the oil companies to create a false shortage.  When
 gasoline station waiting lines became hours long and the
 oil companies hiked the price of gasoline from 33 cents a
 gallon to $1.33 a gallon, which the frustrated public was now
 happy to pay, viola! we suddenly has gasoline coming out
 of our ears.

 To reinforce my belief of the fraud being perpetrated, I
 once knew the Claude S. Brinnegar family.  At the time he
 was a Union Oil of California EVP, then appointed as
 Nixon's Secretary of Transportation just before the alleged
 oil shortage. Beginning to see the connection?

 Did you know that Mobil Oil bought the controlling interest
 in Montgomery Ward IN CASH from their windfall price
 gouging profits?

 Then in about 1988, I made another astounding discovery
 via inquiry to my then Nevada congressman, Walter Bearing.

 NONE of our Alaska oil is used for domestic consumption.
 Every single drop of it is exported, mainly to Japan. The
 alleged reason for this is due to the fact that the EPA has
 declared that the Alaskan oil has too high a sulphur content
 for domestic use (acetic).

 We are exporting premium Oklahoma crude, instead of
 being used for domestic production---and at the same time
 importing OPEC crude.  What the hell is going on here?
 WHY are we exporting oil when we are allegedly having
 such an oil shortage. Something smells very rotten here.
 That little gem should be enough to cause our easterners
 to want to burn the white house for fuel this coming winter,
 if they only knew the truth.

 Gore supported and sponsored the sale of our "archaic"
 strategic naval oil reserves when, as I write this, many of our
 naval vessels are dead in the water for want of steaming fuel.

 Billy Bob and his administration welcomed this latest 'oil
 shortage' so that dead-beat debtor oil producing nations
 could repay us with windfall profits. A real cute  little fraud.
 We get to pay off the foreign debts for them by being raped
 at the gasoline pump.

 One such debtor nation, Iran, instead of repaying us, is
 spending the windfall profits to develop ICBMS to point at us.

 Mexico---several hundred miles away, is sitting on a glut
 of oil but stated, A.  they don't want to offend OPEC and,
 B.  they don't have the ability to move the oil anyhow.

 Answer:  A.  SCREW OPEC!  B. We have a fleet of
 corporate and private 18 wheeler tankers that is mind
 boggling. We could be importing millions of barrels of crude
 a day, if Slick leaned on the Mexicans and we got those
 trucks rolling.

 I can see the sense in preserving our own reserves and
 buying foreign as long as the market is there, but I can not
 see exporting our premium Okie crude at the same time
 the industry is crying oil shortage. Industry greed and
 dirty politics rule supreme!

 End rant.

 New iceberg breaks off Antarctic ice shelf

 The Associated Press
 9/29/00 4:04 PM


 WASHINGTON (AP) -- An iceberg has broken free from the Ross
 Ice Shelf in the Antarctic, the National Ice Center reported
 Friday.

 The 345 square mile iceberg, named B-20, was found by
 satellites operated by the Defense Meteorological Agency.

 The exact date the berg broke free could not be determined
 because of cloudiness in the area, but it is thought to have
 been between Sept. 20 and 26.

 The 30-by-11.5 mile iceberg is located near latitude 77
 degrees, 00 minutes south; longitude 170 degrees, 42 minutes
 east, in the Ross Sea, south of the Pacific Ocean.

 The National Ice Center, operated by the Navy, National Oceanic and
 Atmospheric Administration and the Coast Guard, provides worldwide sea ice
 reports and forecasts.

Domenici-Kennedy Bill

You may or may not be aware of the Domenici-Kennedy Bill now
before Congress.  It is the most dangerous piece of legislation
involving civil rights curtailment in many years.

It calls for the establishment of FEDERAL mental health courts.  Any
individual can be placed before on the sayso of a doctor, etc.  Like the
ones at the state level they will be rubber stamps.  There is no such
thing as a false positive with mental illness.

Domenici's wife (spelling?) was on the board of NAMI, a front company
for the drug companies.

This bill also calls for the establishment of mental health centers in
OUR schools (no choice here).

Buried within the bill will be a centralized database of anyone
(potentially) who ever sought any sort of mental health treatment.  The
repercussions include infringements on the right to keep and bear arms.

We have seen this already.  Gulf War vets with GWI were all given psych
diagnoses.  As a consequence the health records of close to 90,000 vets
were turned over for inclusion in the FBI database.  None of these vets,
nor anyone living in their homes, has the right to posess a firearm.
(By the way I bet the FBI is already going through the MBI database,
MediCaid, etc.)

There is NO need for legislation like this.  Not only will it affect the
targeted individual it will affect that individual's family.

This has already happened in Canada.  Some individuals have ended up in
the database by accident or fraud.  The government refuses to make
corrections.

Of course these individuals will probably be forced
into a lifetime of drug treatment.

We saw a similar legislation in the 1950's at the height of the cold
war.

It was defeated then, but we have had ten years of the media
aggressively falsely associating mental illness with violence.

The U.S. Government, Dimensional Portals, and Dr. Wen Ho
Lee - The Rest of the Story

By Richard Boylan, Ph.D.

 This story may exceed what you are accustomed to consider as
reality. But because advanced research and development into
extraterrestrial-derived technology has taken place for the last
50 years out of public view, the popular view of reality is
almost five decades behind actual scientific achievements.

 To process this story, it helps if you accept that the
government is not totally forthcoming in the news stories it
feeds the media. It also helps to realize that the government
uses the word "nuclear secrets" as a code phrase for all kinds of
secret advanced technology, such as antigravity propulsion and
psychotronic remote-influencing devices, and not just for atomic
weapons.

 An ex-NSA consultant who has been reliable in the past informs
me that government scientists working at Los Alamos "Nuclear"
Laboratory, NM have succeeded in generating a holographic portal.
They have used this portal to travel across space-time, and
possibly interdimensionally, and have seen into another world.
What they saw there, my informant says cryptically, both
frightened and intrigued them. He did not add any additional
details.

 This research would be a follow-on to previous secret government
successful research into time travel and teleportation, Los
Alamos physicist Robert Lazar told about the government's Project
Galileo research into time travel, which he was briefed on when
he worked at the S-4 Base south of Area 51. My NSA contact
confirmed that the government has succeeded in time travel, but
also considers it a dangerous technology. Teleportation research
conducted at the Lawrence Livermore/Sandia National Laboratories,
CA has had some successful results, as well.

 Certain extraterrestrial races have been using portals of their
own devising to visit earth. Now the U.S. government, ever
avaricious to copy ET technology, has created a primitive but
working model of its own.

 Dr. Wen Ho Lee, nuclear scientist in the headlines, worked on
that holographic portal project, along with other scientists.

 You will recall that Dr. Lee was accused by the government of
copying U.S. "nuclear secrets" onto a non-secure computer tape.
In the previously-lax security environment of the professorial
Los Alamos Labs, run by the University of California, and
accustomed to informal exchange of information among research
colleagues, such "lapses of security" have been epidemic. If
every LANL scientist who took short-cuts around certain security
measures were prosecuted, Los Alamos would be a ghost town.

 Why, then, was Wen Ho Lee singled out for such severe and
unconstitutional nine months of imprisonment without bail and
defamation-by-headlines?  What does Dr. Lee know about portal
secrets, that the government used the severest measures to
silence and discredit him?

 Recently, a plea-bargain was entered into by the U.S. government
and Wen Ho Lee, in which 58 felony counts were dropped, and U.S
District Court Judge James Parker apologized to Dr. Lee for
government misconduct which has "embarassed this entire nation."
My ex-NSA consultant indicated that the plea-bargain was achieved
because Dr. Lee, like so many who work in National Security
areas, created a "Get Out Of Jail Free" card for himself. These
scientists uses self-protective measures such as stashing
information embarassing to the government in safety- deposit
boxes or with trusted friends, with the proviso that if anything
should happen to them, the contents would be shared with the
press. The efforts of his family and many friends, and the
Asaian-American community also helped create a public climate
where Dr. Lee was not going to serve quietly as a sacrificial
lamb.

 And now, as Paul Harvey would say, you have the Rest of the
Story.

his state-of-the-art encryption and implanted a virus which
caused my server to freeze up on his exact message and not
download it, and thus blockade all my other incoming e-mail

develop a go-around of the freeze-bug. Now I am a mild-mannered

Komrade Park:
I don't mean to sound uncaring by anything I write. Just that I suppose one
has to have a sense of humor these days, or try to, in order just to hold on
to that scrape of sanity.

I fully understand what you are talking about as to big business,
transnationals, the Elites, and so on. But what I don't see is how activists
actually expect to effect any change whatsoever. I mean, look at what they
are up against! A truly HUGE machine, that has been put in place from over
the centuries, down through the ages, up to today. They are ENTRENCHED, and
I don't see how they will back down. You speak of stockholders, but these
stockholders are the very People themselves (maybe even many on this list),
who already have a vested interest in capitalism. I cannot even envision
what would take the place of capitalism, should the activists ever really
win, except more laws for the "people", more politikal korrektness, more
infringement by the government in the people's lives. It seems that for
every crumb the "Elites" may toss to the masses, they make sure that crumb
is paid for over and over. And then, as long as the Sheeples have a vested
interest in things remaining the way they are, how is any real change ever
going to take place? Why, the very people conspiracy theorists look to, like
scientists, professors, etc., themselves have vested interests that things
remain the way they are, i.e. capitalism, and apparently the "democracy"
which cradles it.

This isn't to say the activists shouldn't try. But how can anyone possibly
expect those in positions of Power and Wealth to give up their power and
wealth, and by "those" I mean any person right now with a vested interest in
capitalism/democracy? Aside from "old money" and those born into it, aren't
most politicians today, like in the lower ranks, don't they come from your
average Amerikan family who is proud of them, who have theirs, and so is not
concerned about anyone else? I see it all around me every day. Isn't all
this just really a matter of plain old human nature, that is, to feel
superior once one gets "theirs", i.e. their house, their new cars, their
bank accounts?

I guess I'm a pessimist, a nihilist. But here we are in the year 2000, and
all we hear is politicians spouting the same old speeches of how things they
will give us Utopia if elected. The same speeches I've heard all my life,
really, and nothing has changed, but that my pockets are picked deeper.

Activists have to reach the Sheeple somehow right here in Amerika. You know
how you can go to Wendys or McDonalds and buy for your kids those idiotic
toy figures from movies that Hollywood gets kids hooked on as fads? I'd like
to see the Sheeples consciousness raised on this one. And I heard on WBAI, I
think, that in Sweden or Switzerland (?) it is against the Law for media to
promote things, advertise things, to children, like fads, clothes, toys,
etc. This made a lot of sense to me. Children are suspectible and don't know
their own minds. Stop the advertising altogether to children, and you have
your children's minds back. I'd like to see some action right here in
Amerika along these lines, like Amerika's mass consumerism, high taxes, the
sickness right here in Amerika. I don't see why I need to be worried about
other countries, when Amerika has problems right here. But then again, I can
see why the activists travel to other countries to lend a hand.

If there is an Impersonal Evil, and I've no doubt there is, it seems to me
the only real hope is Armeggedon as it is written in the Book of
Revelations. The Last Days. The End Times. But...maybe not.

No, I don't think you're picking on me, Komrade. I'm glad you've actually
got something to say. Not like the flippant remarks of some that I've read,
the ones who obviously have no consciousness about anything.

So, if you are serious about entities in the 4th dimension, one answer is
truly raising consciousness. I'm halfway ready to go join an Ashram or
something.

Too bad you're married. I was beginning to fall in love :) Musta been that
sex slave remark.

 If you want anything worth while we have to dig for it.  What comes easy

Many people have a passing familarity with Plato and Aristotle, yet by
questioning them, we come to realize their grasp of Platonics or Aristatilan
logic is non-existent.  The same goes with many who plunge into Steiner or
Blvatsky.  One needs deep waders in these waters.  I, personally am not a
Steinerite and haven't owned a copy of Blvatsky in decades.  Yet if we
pretend to buy into the childishness of thread bare religions today we come
away dissatisfied.  In the past, up until the last two centuries, faith was
enough.  Not so today, we need to understand.  Understanding is possible but
it also requires perceptiveness of heart.  W.T. Stead (sp?) an American

Oil and the Coming Global Economic Slowdown


Summary

Oil prices have exploded. From a low point in 1999, prices have
nearly quadrupled. In the back of most minds lurks a fear: Will
this rise in prices trigger a depression? Will it be 1973 all over
again? The answer lies in looking at the structural and cyclical
parts of the world's economies. They - not oil - were at the heart
of the 1970s economic downturn and will determine events in this
decade, as well.

Analysis

Since petroleum is the key industrial mineral, without which
nothing works, there has been an economic consequence to the recent
rise in prices. The most immediately perceptible consequences,
however, have been political.  Oil prices, which caused civil
disobedience in Europe, are now a centerpiece in the American
presidential campaign. Prices raise concerns about Asia's ability
to recover from the 1997 crash.

Embedded in the concern over oil is a deep, dark fear: Will the
rise in prices so disrupt the global economy that it will tumble
out of control and into a general depression? Certainly, higher oil
prices cause pain. But the real fear is whether these oil prices
will be the nail in the coffin in the expanding global economy. In
the back of everyone's mind is this question: Are we about to
experience 1973 all over again?

The 1973 Arab oil embargo created a massive price rise and economic
dislocation, from Tokyo to Paris to Chicago. The explosion in oil
prices ushered in a decade of "stagflation" in which inflation
soared while economies stagnated. By the end of the decade, the
United States experienced double-digit unemployment, double-digit
inflation and double-digit interest rates. For Europe, the
situation was worse.  Even Japan, in the early stage of its
economic explosion, experienced derailment.

What few people remember is that the 1973 oil shock did not usher
in the stagflation period. It may have accelerated it and
intensified it, but the slowdown was in the works for quite a
while.  President Nixon had imposed price and wage controls before
the 1973 crisis. The United States was in enough economic trouble
for the president to impose unprecedented controls on the economy.

What drove the global economy toward stagflation was a set of deep
structural and cyclical problems. The first of these was
essentially demographic. The global population explosion following
World War II took place as people entered a period of family
formation -- a time when consumption is highest and savings is
lowest. This wave of people created tremendous pressure on
commodity and money markets.

Then came an inevitable cyclical event. The massive post-war
expansion that began in the early 1950s was about a generation old.
By the late 1960s, it was, not surprisingly, out of gas. The time
had come for a cyclical downturn. Coupled with the demographic,
structural reality, a cyclical shift turned into a massive
economic, social and political dislocation.

Deep cyclical and structural patterns magnified the effect of the
oil price rise in 1973. Without these other factors, the prices
would not have had the effect they had. Alternatively, the rise in
oil prices would not have been possible. It could not have occurred
after the 1967 Middle East War.  But it could take place in 1973,
because of a general rise in commodity prices; the rise in oil
prices was at most an exaggeration of something that was happening
anyway.
_

Today, the real issue is not oil - not any more than it was in
1973. The real issues are the structural and cyclical forces that
underpin the economy.  By themselves, oil prices are not
definitive. They are merely part of the general operating pattern
of global economies. The structural pattern remains in place, with
positive and negative consequences.

In the case of the former, the same demographic factors that
created stagflation in the 1970s are now creating powerful patterns
of capital formation, particularly in the United States. Much focus
has been on the very narrow measure of savings rates, which

 How I see it is that the US has
 been set-up as a caricature of capitalism and the USSR was set up as a
 caricature of communism/socialism set in place for control of the natural
 resources of the world.

 As I see it they are both capitalism. One is private monopoly capitalism.
 The other is state monopoly capitalism. But a boss is a boss is a boss. In
 neither case do ordinary people like you and I have real power over
 everyday life. In both cases the few control the many, and exploit us to
 their own advantage.

 The human population included.

 We're livestock. Nations are just glorified livestock paddocks. Borders
 are fences that our owners use to keep us separated into managable sized
 herds. Our rulers themselves care not a fig for nationalism, except as a
 tool to manipulate us. Capital has no borders.

Capitalism, state-monopoly or otherwise, indeed seems to boil down
to "control of the natural resources (of the world)" by the few, at the
expense of the many. We have all become a mere number in a world
of fictions -- just another commodity on the sacred 'market' -- where an
elite few control more then the other 90 or so percent of the population
combined. All 'governments' and 'corporations', so-called, are the
created and manipulated legal fictions of an elite's avarice. They were
created for one purpose: CONTROL; and they "have been only such
agreements as they (the 'elite') have found it necessary to enter into,
in order to maintain their organizations, and act together in plundering
and enslaving others, and in securing to each his agreed share of the
spoils". As my beloved, and over-quoted Spooner put it in his 19th
Century pamphlets on "Natural Law", and "No Treason":
[additions mine]

"All political [corporate] power, so called, rests practically
upon this matter of money [debt/credit]. Any number of scoundrels,
having money enough to start with, can establish themselves as a
"government" [or "corporation"]; because, with money, they can hire
soldiers [police/courts, or wage slaves for corporations], and with
soldiers extort more money; and also compel general obedience to their
will. It is with government [and corporations], as Caesar said it was in
war, that money and soldiers mutually supported each other"

"But all this they can do only by establishing what they call a
government, and making what they call laws."

"All the great governments [corporations, secret societies, etc]
of the world -- those now existing, as well as those that have passed
away -- have been of this character. They have been mere bands of
impostors, who have associated for purposes of plunder, conquest, and
the enslavement [wage slavery for corporations] of their fellow men. And
their laws [USC for 'gubbnmint' and UCC for 'corpus-rations'], as they
have called them, have been only such agreements as they have found it
necessary to enter into, in order to maintain their organizations, and
act together in plundering and enslaving others, and in securing to each
his agreed share of the spoils.

"All these laws [USC/UCC/treaties/CONstitutions/"sacred oaths"
of secret societies, etc.] have had no more real obligation than have
the agreements which brigands, bandits, and pirates find it necessary to
enter into with each other, for the more successful accomplishment of
their crimes, and the more peaceable division of their spoils.

"Thus substantially all the legislation [USC/UCC/treaties/
CONstitutions/corporate charters] of the world has had its origin in
the desires of one class of persons to plunder and enslave others."

"In process of time, the robber, or slaveholding, class [the 'elite',
'establishment', etc.] -- who had seized all the lands, and held all the
means of creating wealth [commerce] -- began to discover that the
easiest mode of managing their slaves, and making them profitable, was
not for each slaveholder to hold his specified number of slaves, as he
had done before, and as he would hold so many cattle, but to give them
so much liberty as would throw upon themselves (the slaves) the
responsibility of their own subsistence, and yet compel them to sell
their labor to the land-holding class -- their former owners -- for just
what the latter might choose to give them.

"Of course, these liberated slaves, as some have erroneously called
them, having no lands, or other property, and no means of obtaining an
independent subsistence, had no alternative -- to save themselves from
starvation -- but to sell their labor to the landholders [corporations],
in exchange only for the coarsest necessaries of life; not always for so
much even as that ['minimum wage' for some, much more for others,
usually depending on who one knows, or what 'degrees' one holds
from either a college or masonic lodge, or both, or whatnot].

WASHINGTON (AP) - Want to track your Social Security benefits? Need
to apply for a federal student loan? Having trouble surfing the
Internet to find the nearest veterans hospital? Want to reserve a
campsite at a national park? Beginning Friday, Americans can do all
these things by logging on to a single U.S. government Web site:

http://firstgov.gov

President Clinton will explain how the site works in an Internet
address Friday afternoon The one-stop Internet site consolidates
20,000 government Web sites - some 27 million web pages - into
one. The new site allows Internet users to search for government
information by topic, rather than by agency. It also is designed
to reduce the time Americans now spend traveling to government
offices and waiting in line.

The site was developed, at no cost to taxpayers, by a team led by
Internet entrepreneur Eric Brewer. He's chief scientist at
Inktomi Corp., a software developer and marketer in Foster City,
Calif. The government will pay $165,000 a month to maintain the
site, which can search a half a billion documents in less than
one-quarter of a second and handle millions of searches a day.
The White House Web site ranked near the bottom among federal
Internet destinations, Brown University researchers said.
