I would like to know what is happening to the smaller trailers
that were sent to Louisiana? I met hundreds of them on I-59 20 last of
05 and early 06 now I am meeting them going back North some of them in
good shape and some of them that looked like they have been stripped.
So what is going on? Is Fema selling these trailers and not telling the public? I would like to buy some if I could get information on what is going on.

I live in the town(Hope,AR) where the trailers are being held, its at the Hope municapal (sp) Airport, FEMA is paying Hempstead County 25,000 dollars a year to have them placed here. The total amount of trailers to date is 15,000. Last week they had a meeting on what to do with the trailers
and so forth. Not sure what they came up with but thats the deal so far
that Im aware of. They are concerned with Tornado season coming up and
what notgo figure they decided to plant it right in Tornado Alley..

I know a little about this issue as I was one of the drivers that delivered some of the houses that are in Hope, Arkansas. I would like to comment on some of the above statements. Returning the trailers to the manufactures would cost tax payers more than just keeping them down there. trailer paid up to eight dollars (and in some places in Kentucky they paid for the truck fuel) a mile to move these trailers when regular freight on one of these trailers
is around two dollars a mile. What happened is, people such as Jackie
Williams from Ga created his own company, and then contacted trailer for a contract to supply X amount of houses for the victims. FEMA then paid these individuals, or their companies, large amounts of money to supply the houses and deliver them to the FEMA
holding areas. The individuals then contacted the manufactures and
contracted to buy thousands of homes. By the time it got to the driver
we received around five dollars a mile. When this happened everyone
wanted in on the money making deal. Drivers that owned their own trucks
rushed to get mirror bars and house hitches welded on their trucks so
they could start pulling trailers.
By the way these are the same guys that usually cussed us for being on
the interstate when they came up behind us. Fly-by-night house haulers
it what I usually called them. The government waived many laws
regarding transporting of manufactured houses for the hurricane
victims. We could pull them at night, no permits required, no pilot
cars required, there were drivers out there that had no idea on how to
safely pull one of these things now pulling them 24 hours a day and 7
days a week, with no requirement to keep up with our log books. Don't
get me wrong, I was in line like the rest of them, but I have 15 years
behind the wheel with 9 years experience pulling Arkansass. Arkansas
must have seen a golden opportunity here because Little Rock decided to
put a stop to any night movement, issue tickets for log books, all
equipment must be exact. They even put a DOT (department of
transportation) officer on the lot inside the gates in Hope, Arkansas. He gave more tickets out to drivers over little things than the whole state gave out in speeding tickets. Now as for the Arkansass setting, I delivered a couple of trailers,
to Tallahassee Fl. at the old Blue Angles AFB. They stated that they
have houses that were delivered last year for the hurricanes that hit
in 2004 still sitting around, and what is sick they stated they still
haven't received all of them. So Hope is not the only place these
houses are stored. Hope is the only place that is sinking and
destroying them. In Selma Alabama, not only do they have an abundance
of houses they have travel trailers stacked in rows that go on forever. Arkansas
bought 150 brand new Ford F350 Dually pick-up trucks to move these
around on the lot. A little much don't ya think? Brand new Gators,
four-wheelers, you would not believe the things I have seen. Now to the
issue of trailers going bad, no they do not just go bad they have to be damaged first. See Fly-by-night house haulers above. Also Arkansas
decided they wanted to store as many houses as they could (more houses
more money I guess) so they had us park them as close as we could get
them to one another, sometimes about 6 to 8 inches apart. This is fine
if they are on stable ground. What's happening now is when you mix the
rain in with the soybean field the ground is soft so the houses are now
falling into one another. Another thing, not only are these houses
filled with new couches, refrigerators, stoves, mattresses, and bed
frames in every home they also have microwaves, kitchen tables,
dressers, nightstands and the heat and air units along with all the
duct work to install the units. This is something

AP: Israel Using Chem Weapons & Targetting Ambulances July 24, 2006 (snip) "Jawad Najem, a surgeon at the hospital, said patients admitted Sunday had burns from phosphorous incendiary weapons used by Israel. The Geneva Conventions ban using white phosphorous as an incendiary weapon against civilian populations and in air attacks against military forces in civilian areas; Israel said its weapons comply with international law. "Mahmoud Sarour, 14, was admitted to the hospital yesterday and treated for phosphorous burns to his face," Najem said. Mahmoud's 8-month-old sister, Maryam, suffered similar burns on her neck and hands when an Israeli rocket hit the family car." (snip)
"The Sarours had to go to the port by taxi because the Lebanese Red Cross suspended operations outside Tyre after Israeli jets blasted two ambulances with rockets, said Ali Deebe, a Red Cross spokesman in Tyre. In the incident Sunday, one Red Cross ambulance went south of Tyre to meet an ambulance and transfer the wounded to the hospital. "When we have wounded outside the city, we always used two ambulances," Deebe said. The rocket attack on the two vehicles wounded six ambulance workers and three civilians - an 11-year-old boy, an elderly woman and a man, Deebe said. "One of the rockets hit right in the middle of the big red cross that was painted on top of the ambulance," he said. "This is a clear violation of humanitarian law, of international law. We are neutral and we should not be targeted.""

Red China Opens NAFTA Ports in 
Mexico

 
by Jerome 
R. CorsiPosted Jul 18, 2006 
 
http://www.humaneventsonline.com/article.php?id=16077
 
The Port Authority of San 
Antonio has been working actively with the Communist Chinese to open and 
develop NAFTA shipping ports in Mexico. The plan is to ship containers 
of cheap goods produced by under-market labor in China and the Far East into 
North America via Mexican ports. From the Mexican ports, Mexican truck drivers 
and railroad workers will transport the goods across the Mexican border with 
Texas. Once in the U.S., the routes will proceed north to Kansas City along the 
NAFTA Super-Highway, ready to be expanded by the Trans-Texas Corridor, and NAFTA 
railroad routes being put in place by Kansas City Southern. Kansas City 
Southerns Mexican railroads has positioned the company to become the NAFTA 
Railroad.Right now, the cost of shipping and ground transportation can 
nearly double the total cost of cheap goods produced by Chinese and Far Eastern 
under-market labor. The plan is to reduce those transportation costs by as much 
as 50% by using Mexican ports.

Hitler burned dead Jews. Kazar cult terrorists burn live muslims with
white phosphorus bombs from fourth generation nazi Bush Warco.

Enjoy the following pictures. All the bombs are yours, you paid for
them, by taxation without representation, snoozing on with the fourth
generation of nazi enemy.

http://mparent.livejournal.com/10533243.html

Your tax dollars bought the bombs from fourth generation nazi Bush
Warco.

Just as initiating WW2 voided all German claims to Poland and Alsace,
all Japanese claim to China, Manchuria, and to rule a Greater East Asian
Co-Prosperity Sphere as chief colonial power, the Kazar terrorists void
all claim FOREVER to Golan Heights, West Bank, Gaza, and Iraq by
de-populating southern Lebanon and conducting massive reprisals against
civilians.

No wonder, all the bombs come from the original WW2 nazis. Nazis George
Herbert Walker, Sam Bush, and his son Prescott Bush sold to both sides
in WW1 and WW2, Prescott set up CIA for son George Herbert Walker Bush
and grandsons George Walker Bush and Jeb Bush.

CIA did JFK, RFK, MLK, Watergate, October Surprise, Waco, OKCbomb,
WTCbomb, 911, 2000 and 2004 election frauds equivalent to Prescott Bush
via Hitler taking totalitarian power in 1930's Germany. All the bombs
falling on Lebanon come from Bush Warco, Kazar terrorists drawing the
Nuremberg blanket over all territorial claims.

[cia-drugs] Fwd: If old loves die hard, then ancient hatreds must be about immortal.

Begin forwarded message:From: RoadsEnd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Date: July 24, 2006 9:36:45 AM PDTTo: ctrl CTRL , [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]Cc: RoadsEnd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Subject: If old loves die hard, then ancient hatreds must be about immortal. http://rigint.blogspot.com/2006/07/painting-passports-brown.html#commentsIridescent cuttlefish said...    Shrubageddon (and the quiet little post on nanotech riding to the rescue) reminded me of my own overarching POV--that 9/11 and the imperial adventures in the Middle East are basically pretexts and diversions in late-stage capitalism’s final assault/last gasp before the façade maintained by technological suppression and artificial scarcity crumbles--which somewhat escaped my focus as I read Jeff’s water hijinks post, because something else was ‘clicking’ for me. It involves, as S intimated, quite a few of the ideas running through the recent threads here (the Vatican pedophilia cover-up, the issue of fake antisemitism, etc) as well as my own current reading. It’s actually only a sort of fuzzy epiphany, as it raises more questions than it answers, and yet something feels vaguely right about it.    Here’s how it happened: I’m plowing through a hugely fat, rather dry and overly careful historical analysis called “The Third Reich in Power,” the 2nd volume in the unfinished trilogy by Cambridge prof Richard J. Evans, who is solid, stolid and definitely not in any sense “radical”. In fact, I had been getting a bit annoyed at the short shrift he gave to the role of the transnational corporations in Hitler’s ascension, when suddenly bells started ringing in his treatment of how the Nazis dealt with the threat they perceived the Catholic Church to be. Evans’ take was that Goebbels personally took over after an earlier effort to emasculate the Church by restricting parochial school attendance and Catholic youth group membership (which were seen as competition for fascist state indoctrination and the Hitler Youth respectively) completely backfired, sending many thousands of pissed off Catholics into the streets of Oldenburg, as well as swastika flags into the gutters and even a wave resignations from the Nazi Party, which had never happened before.    Hitler was apparently so angry that he wanted to round up all the priests and send them to Sachsenhausen with Martin Niemoeller (author of the famous “When they came for the Communists I did nothing..” speech), but Goebbels was nervous about such a move because Niemoeller was already getting them very negative international press and because they still hadn’t annexed Austria, which was nearly universally Catholic. So, in a brilliantly calculated maneuver, Goebbels dug up a few cases of alleged pedophilia, combined them with rumors of rampant homosexuality in the German monastaries, inflated the numbers involved and cooked up a prodigious scandal where none had been before. He also utilized photo op field trips where kids who weren’t even Catholic were whipped into a Salem-style hysteria, screaming (in front of reporters) not to let the sex fiends get their hands on them. Within a few months parochial attendance went from 95% in Oldenburg to 5%, the local Hitler Youth group mushroomed overnight, Catholic monastaries, lay buildings and finances were confiscated, and many hundreds of priests and monks were (quietly) led off to various concentration camps.    I’m not in any way saying that the story of the pedophilia cover-up in recent discussions is related, but hysterical denunciations and faked repressed memories do happen occasionally, in wave-like patterns. The question this raises is who could be orchestrating the faked ones and why? I once knew a teacher who was Salem-ed, the very strictest teacher in my grade school, and even though the kid recanted (her father was later charged with the identical crimes) the teacher was broken, shamed out of the profession. Innocent, even. There’s tremendous power in the mob.    The other mob I thought of was the current wave of real and/or imagined antisemitism. Evans also touched on this, describing the Propaganda Ministry’s efforts to inflame the nascent and deeply-rooted antisemitism in Germany into a force which could be reliably used to intimidate, cajole and generally brainwash segments of the population which weren’t quite down with the program enough for Goebbels. In this case, Evans’ account immediately caused me to understand what’s been happening at the site where I used to be a regular (Information Clearinghouse). I had already been challenging some of the more rabid Jew-biters for their obvious manipulation by the likes of Rense and others of his ilk, but the owner of that site, the good and homorable Tom Feely had to shut his comment field down before I really realized what was going on there. It wasn’t just the same phrases and vitriol lifted from Rense that sank ICH—it was precisely the same stuff that Goebbels cooked 70 years ago. Today I

Writing as Covert Communications, CC for short, she opined in her online journal on such national security conundrums as stagflation, the war of ideas in the Middle East and -- in her most popular post -- bad food in the CIA cafeteria.But the hundreds of blog readers who responded to her irreverent entries with titles such as "Morale Equals Food" won't be joining her ever again.On July 13, after she posted her views on torture and the Geneva Conventions, her blog was taken down and her security badge was revoked. On Monday, Axsmith was terminated by her employer, BAE Systems, which was helping the CIA test software.As a traveler in the classified blogosphere, Axsmith was not alone. Hundreds of blog posts appear on Intelink. The CIA says blogs and other electronic tools are used by people working on the same issue to exchange information and ideas.CIA spokesman Paul Gimigliano declined to comment on Axsmith's case but said the policy on blogs is that "postings should relate directly to the official business of the author and readers of the site, and that managers should be informed of online projects that use government resources. CIA expects contractors to do the work they are paid to do."A BAE Systems spokesman declined to comment.Axsmith, 42, said in an interview this week that she thinks of herself as the Erma Bombeck of the intel world, a "generalist" writing about lunch meat one day, the war on terrorism the next. She said she first posted her classified blog in May and no one said a thing.When she asked, managers even agreed to give her the statistics on how many people were entering the site. Her column on food pulled in 890 readers, and people sent her reviews from other intelligence agency canteens.The day of the last post, Axsmith said, after reading a newspaper report that the CIA would join the rest of the U.S. government in according Geneva Conventions rights to prisoners, she posted her views on the subject.It started, she said, something like this: "Waterboarding is Torture and Torture is Wrong."And it continued, she added, with something like this: "CC had the sad occasion to read interrogation transcripts in an assignment that should not be made public. And, let's just say, European lives were not saved." (That was a jab at Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's trip to Europe late last year when she defended U.S. policy on secret detentions and interrogations.)A self-described "opinionated loudmouth with a knack for writing a catchy headline," Axsmith also wrote how it was important to "empower grunts and paper pushers" because, she explained in the interview, "I'm a big believer in educating people at the bottom, and that's how you strengthen an infrastructure."In her job as a contractor at the CIA's software-development shop, Axsmith said, she conducted "performance and stress testing" on computer programs, and that as a computer engineer she had nothing to do with interrogations. She said she did read some reports she thought were interrogation-related while performing her job as a trainer in one counterterrorism office.Her opinion, Axsmith added, was based on newspaper reports of torture and waterboarding as an interrogation method used to induce prisoners to cooperate."I thought it would be OK" to write about the Geneva Conventions, she said, "because it's the policy."In recounting the events of her last day as an Intelink blogger, Axsmith said she didn't hold up well when the corporate security officers grilled her, seized her badge and put her in a frigid conference room. "I'm shaking. I'm cold, staring at the wall," she recalled. "And worse, people are using the room as a shortcut, so I have no dignity in this crisis."She said BAE officials told her that the blog implied a specific knowledge of interrogations and that it worried "the seventh floor" at CIA, where the offices of the director and his management team are.She said she apologized right away and figured she would get reprimanded and her blog would be eliminated. She never dreamed she would be fired. Now, Axsmith said, "I'm scared, terrified really" of being criminally prosecuted for unauthorized use of a government computer system, something one of the security

Writing as Covert Communications, CC for short, she opined in her online journal on such national security conundrums as stagflation, the war of ideas in the Middle East and -- in her most popular post -- bad food in the CIA cafeteria.But the hundreds of blog readers who responded to her irreverent entries with titles such as "Morale Equals Food" won't be joining her ever again.On July 13, after she posted her views on torture and the Geneva Conventions, her blog was taken down and her security badge was revoked. On Monday, Axsmith was terminated by her employer, BAE Systems, which was helping the CIA test software.As a traveler in the classified blogosphere, Axsmith was not alone. Hundreds of blog posts appear on Intelink. The CIA says blogs and other electronic tools are used by people working on the same issue to exchange information and ideas.CIA spokesman Paul Gimigliano declined to comment on Axsmith's case but said the policy on blogs is that "postings should relate directly to the official business of the author and readers of the site, and that managers should be informed of online projects that use government resources. CIA expects contractors to do the work they are paid to do."A BAE Systems spokesman declined to comment.Axsmith, 42, said in an interview this week that she thinks of herself as the Erma Bombeck of the intel world, a "generalist" writing about lunch meat one day, the war on terrorism the next. She said she first posted her classified blog in May and no one said a thing.When she asked, managers even agreed to give her the statistics on how many people were entering the site. Her column on food pulled in 890 readers, and people sent her reviews from other intelligence agency canteens.The day of the last post, Axsmith said, after reading a newspaper report that the CIA would join the rest of the U.S. government in according Geneva Conventions rights to prisoners, she posted her views on the subject.It started, she said, something like this: "Waterboarding is Torture and Torture is Wrong."And it continued, she added, with something like this: "CC had the sad occasion to read interrogation transcripts in an assignment that should not be made public. And, let's just say, European lives were not saved." (That was a jab at Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's trip to Europe late last year when she defended U.S. policy on secret detentions and interrogations.)A self-described "opinionated loudmouth with a knack for writing a catchy headline," Axsmith also wrote how it was important to "empower grunts and paper pushers" because, she explained in the interview, "I'm a big believer in educating people at the bottom, and that's how you strengthen an infrastructure."In her job as a contractor at the CIA's software-development shop, Axsmith said, she conducted "performance and stress testing" on computer programs, and that as a computer engineer she had nothing to do with interrogations. She said she did read some reports she thought were interrogation-related while performing her job as a trainer in one counterterrorism office.Her opinion, Axsmith added, was based on newspaper reports of torture and waterboarding as an interrogation method used to induce prisoners to cooperate."I thought it would be OK" to write about the Geneva Conventions, she said, "because it's the policy."In recounting the events of her last day as an Intelink blogger, Axsmith said she didn't hold up well when the corporate security officers grilled her, seized her badge and put her in a frigid conference room. "I'm shaking. I'm cold, staring at the wall," she recalled. "And worse, people are using the room as a shortcut, so I have no dignity in this crisis."She said BAE officials told her that the blog implied a specific knowledge of interrogations and that it worried "the seventh floor" at CIA, where the offices of the director and his management team are.She said she apologized right away and figured she would get reprimanded and her blog would be eliminated. She never dreamed she would be fired. Now, Axsmith said, "I'm scared, terrified really" of being criminally prosecuted for unauthorized use of a government computer system, something one of the security

PAUL KRUGMAN: Black and Blue & MorePor PAUL KRUGMAN - Monday, Jul. 24, 2006 at 12:04 PM Krugman: Bush & Blacks African-Americans distrust President Bushs party with good reason "Above all, theres the continuing effort of the G.O.P. to suppress black voting."OP-ED COLUMNIST Black and Blue By PAUL KRUGMAN Published: July 24, 2006 According to the White House transcript, heres how it went last week, when President Bush addressed the N.A.A.C.P. for the first time: THE PRESIDENT: I understand that many African-Americans distrust my political party. AUDIENCE: Yes! (Applause.) But Mr. Bush didnt talk about why African-Americans dont trust his party, and black districts are always blue on election maps. So let me
fill in the blanks. First, G.O.P. policies consistently help those who are already doing extremely well, not those lagging behind ... [B]oth the relative and absolute economic status of blacks, after improving substantially during the Clinton years, have worsened since 2000. The G.O.P. obsession with helping the haves and have-mores, and lack of concern for everyone else, was evident ... in Mr. Bushs speech... Mr. Bush never mentioned wages, which have been falling behind inflation... Mr. Bush also never used the word poverty, a condition that afflicts almost one in four blacks. But he found time to call for repeal of the estate tax, even though African-Americans are more than a thousand times as likely to live below the poverty line as they are to ... leave a taxable estate. Economic issues alone, then, partially explain African-American disdain for the G.O.P. But even more important is the way Republicans win elections Continued:

Re: [cia-drugs] War on Lebanon Planned for at least a Year

2006-07-24 Thread Arlene Johnson

If we compare the actions of the Zionists during WW I, when they approached the 
British to tell them not to surrender to the Germans even though they were 
losing, that the Zionists would bring in the United States into the war, 
thereby getting Balfour to agree to give Palestine to the Zionist which 
generated the Balfour Agreement, then one can be pretty sure that this war 
(aggression) was planned when Mossad created Hamas.

I don't make this stuff up folks. It has all been told to me by others who know 
whereof they speak. If you don't believe this, then check out the "Did You 
Know?" feature in my first edition and the 18th edition in its entirety. It's 
all free on my Web site.

Peace,
