[CTRL] Harmann, a serial killer in Germany of the early 1930's
-Caveat Lector- An intresting exert Can anyone say "Hate Language" or Eubanonics? http://www.tarpley.net/bush22.htm "At about this time, the Bush network we have seen in operation at the Reader's Digest since the 1964 campaign conveniently printed an article about a certain Willie Horton, a black convicted murderer who was released from a Masschusetts jail on a furlough, and then absconded to Maryland, where he raped a white woman and stabbed her fiance. The Massachusetts furlough program had been started by Republican Governor Frank Sargent, but this meant nothing. Bush was to use Willie Horton in the same way that Hitler and the Nazis exploited the grisly crimes of one Harmann, a serial killer in Germany of the early 1930's, in their calls for law and order. In Illinois in mid-June, Bush began to talk about how Dukakis let "murderers out on vacation to terrorize innocent people." "Democrats can't find it in their hearts to get tough on criminals," Bush ranted. "What did the governor of Massachusetts think he was doing when he let convicted first-degree murderers out on weekend passes, even after one of them criminally, brutally raped a woman and stabbed her fiance? Why didn't he admit his mistake? Eight months later, he was still defending his program, and only when the Massachusetts legislature voted by an overwhelming majority to abolish this program did he finally give in. I think Governor Dukakis owes the American people an explanation of why he supports this outrageous program." -- Any person can stand adversity, The true test is to give a person power. http://freeweb.digiweb.com/science_fiction/ThePiedPiper/~index.htm DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Hormone-Mimicking Chemicals
-Caveat Lector- "Because hormone-mimicking chemicals are used so widely in agriculture and industry, restricting their use to protect public health would threaten the financial survival of many corporations." No one is going to find a cure for cancer so long as it's much more profitable to manufacture products that CAUSE cancer. WHO IS STEALING OUR FUTURE? In 1994, industry released more than 1.1 billion pounds of toxins linked to human reproductive disorders. Only ONE percent of the 70,000 different synthetic chemicals and metals in commercial use is monitored. Despite grave public health threats, industry is fighting to keep polluting and keep the public in the dark. by Pratap Chatterjee Covert Action Quarterly, #58, Fall 1996 Polar bears in the Arctic circle and albatrosses in the middle of the Pacific were the last creatures that scientists expected to be threatened by synthetic chemicals. But the pristine wilderness and the pure ocean vastness are as extinct as the dodo and just as much casualties of human activity. When the albatross population suffered a 3 percent drop in reproduction rates over the last few years, New Zealand researchers discovered abnormally high levels of synthetic chemicals in the birds' bodies. When polar bear reproduction dropped by more than half, Norwegian researchers documented levels of toxic chemicals in the animals that are 3 billion times higher than in the cold waters near which they live. The recently published book, Our Stolen Future, brings together mounting scientific evidence that thousands of synthetic chemicals in common use are accumulating all along the food chain and are turning up everywhere from remote virgin forest to supermarket shelf. (See p. 17.) If the authors are right, a group of chemicals known as endocrine disruptors and hormone mimickers are undermining the health and genetic viability of hundreds of species, including humans. And because the implicated chemicals including PCBs, chlorine, atrazine, DDT, and various plastics used to manufacture five gallon water containers and approximately half the canned goods in this country are so widely used in agriculture and industry, the financial vitality and survival of many corporations is also at stake. Not surprisingly, then, in addition to calls for further investigation and research, the storm of controversy around the new studies implicating these chemicals has also sparked a counterattack funded and promoted by the corporations that would be affected by regulation or a ban. MUGGING THE MESSENGERS The way these chemicals work is to "mimic" or "block" estrogen and progesterone, natural chemicals known as hormones which instruct the body in how it should develop and reproduce. "Hormonally active synthetic chemicals are thugs on the biological information highway that sabotage vital communication. They mug the messengers or impersonate them. They jam signals. They scramble messages," write the authors of Our Stolen Future. For example: "Imagine what would happen if somebody disrupted communications during the construction of a large building so the plumbers did not get the message to install the pipes in half the bathrooms before the carpenters closed the building." Now imagine that the chemicals that affect communications in the endocrine system are everywhere "in the finest caviar, in penguins in Antarctica, in the bluefin tuna served at a sushi bar in Tokyo, in the monsoon rains that fall on Calcutta, in the milk of a nursing mother in France, in the blubber of a sperm whale cruising the South Pacific." Throw in a couple more alarming facts. Billions of pounds of these chemicals are pumped annually into the air, land, and water, but the amount required to disrupt reproduction cycles could be as low as one part in a trillion equivalent to just one drop of liquid in the cars of a six-mile-long cargo train. Humans are particularly vulnerable since the concentration of many of these chemicals increases in animals high in the food chain. The reason is two-fold: First, the chemicals are "persistent," meaning they do not break down, and second, they are stored permanently in body fat so that when a larger animal eats smaller animals, the predator incorporates the pollutants of its prey. Finally, perhaps the most devastating news of all is that some of the chemicals with weak endocrine disrupting effects on their own become far more dangerous when two or more of them are found together. Research conducted by two scientists from Tulane University in Louisiana on four pesticides (chlordane, dieldrin, endosulfan, and toxaphene) and several different kinds of PCBs showed that two or more such chemicals in combination could be as much as 1,600 times as powerful as the individual chemicals alone.

-Caveat Lector- In a message dated 08/05/1999 12:22:02 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: GENEVA, Aug 3 (IPS) - The United Nations (UN) installed a new working group Tuesday to evaluate the effects of transnational business activity on human rights. El-Hadji Guisse, the working group's president, said transnational corporations have a presence in the vital sectors of the world economy and ''are thus in a position to block any moves towards the respect for and protection of human rights.'' In a preparatory study for the working group, Guisse, a magistrate from Senegal, recommended that nations create laws which ''criminalise activities by transnational corporations that violate economic, social and cultural rights.'' The biggest problem is getting transnationals to submit to national or international law, stated Guisse. I guess I won't be so concerned about the UN's authority after all.

I plan to watch in central NJ around 6am...through a pinhole camera, of course! http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/OH/OH1999.html#SE1999Aug11T Eclipses During 1999 by Fred Espenak To Be Published in Observer's Handbook 1999, Royal Astronomical Society of Canada Two solar and two lunar eclipses occur in 1999 as follows: 1999 Jan 31: Penumbral Lunar Eclipse 1999 Feb 16: Annular Solar Eclipse 1999 Jul 28: Partial Lunar Eclipse 1999 Aug 11: Total Solar Eclipse Predictions and maps for the solar and lunar eclipses are presented in a number of figures linked to this document. World maps show the regions of visibility for each eclipse. The lunar eclipse diagrams also include the path of the Moon through Earth's shadows. Contact times for each principal phase are tabulated along with the magnitudes and geocentric coordinates of the Sun and Moon at greatest eclipse. Although all three lunar eclipses are "visible" from parts of North America, their penumbral nature makes them difficult to detect. 1999 Jan 31: Penumbral Lunar Eclipse Penumbral eclipses of the Moon are rarely of much interest. However, the first eclipse of 1999 is an exception since it falls into the unusual category of the total penumbral eclipse. In order for a penumbral eclipse to be total, the Moon must pass centrally through the penumbral annulus and its apparent diameter must not exceed the width of the penumbral ring. According to eclipse experts Jean Meeus and Hermann Mucke [1979], during the 45+ century period 2001 BC to 2526 AD there are 10936 lunar eclipses, 132 of which are total penumbral eclipses. This corresponds to a mere 1.2% of all eclipses. The first eclipse of 1999 occurs several weeks after Earth reaches perihelion, a time when the umbral and penumbral shadows are at their minimum and maximum diameters, respectively. This allows the Moon to marginally squeeze completely within the penumbra without the Moon's limb entering any portion of the umbra. Nevertheless, the Moon's northern limb will glide within a scant 0.7 arc-minutes of the umbra making this event quite obvious, even to the naked eye. Greatest eclipse occurs at 16:17 UT and will be visible from western Canada and the U.S. as well as the Pacific, Asia, Australia and eastern Europe and Africa. The Moon's path through Earth's shadow(s) as well as a map showing worldwide visibility of the event are shown in Figure 1. 1999 Feb 16: Annular Solar Eclipse The first solar eclipse of 1999 is annular and is confined to the southern hemisphere Figure 2. Eclipses in this Saros series changed from total to annular during the early 20th century. As a consequence, the path of the antumbra is quite narrow and the duration is short. The central path begins about 1000 kilometres south of South Africa at 04:57 UT. An hour and a half later, the instant of greatest eclipse occurs in the middle of the Indian Ocean (06:34 UT). The path is only 29 kilometres wide and the duration of annularity is a brief 40 seconds. Nearly another hour passes before the antumbra finally reaches land. The path of annularity crosses into southwestern Australia about 300 kilometres north of Perth at 07:28 UT (Figure 3). The Sun's altitude is then 45°, the path width is 42 kilometres and the duration of annularity is 48 seconds. At mid-eclipse, the annular ring of the Sun will have a mean thickness of only 9 arc-seconds! Since the Moon's limb exhibits orthographic features on the order of 3 to 5 arc-seconds, this event should offer a spectacular display of Baily's Beads. Continuing on its northeastern course, the path crosses arid parts of Western Australia through relatively remote and unpopulated areas. Entering the Northern Territory, the antumbra passes 400 kilometres north of Alice Springs at 08:00 UT. The Sun's altitude will then be 39° as the path width (48 kilometres) and central duration (51 seconds) gradually increase. This occurs because the curvature of Earth brings these regions further from the Moon and deeper into the antumbral shadow. The path stretches through northern Queensland passing 100 kilometers north of Cairns where a partial eclipse of magnitude 0.97 will be seen with the Sun 10° above the horizon at 08:07 UT. The path ends three minutes later in the Coral Sea. The length of the entire path of annularity is approximately 13,700 kilometres which encompasses about 0.20% of Earth's total surface area. Path coordinates and centre line circumstances are presented in Table 1. Local circumstances for cities throughout the path are given in Table 2. All times are given in Universal Time. The Sun's altitude and azimuth, the eclipse magnitude and obscuration are all given at the instant of maximum eclipse.

Finnerty et al (US) now report that sensory deprivation alters short-term synaptic dynamics in both vertical and horizontal excit- atory pathways within the supragranular cortex. Moreover, modifications of horizontal pathways amplify changes in the vertical inputs. The authors suggest their findings help to explain the functional cortical reorgani- zation that follows persistent changes of sensory experience, and that the results may exemplify a more general mechanism that regulates the alloca- tion of cortical space in primary sensory cortex.

Hans-Walter Rix (DE) presents a review of current research on the future fate of the Universe and the formation of structure in it.

However, theoretical consid- erations predict direct observations confirm that on the largest scales the Universe becomes simple again: isotropic statistically homogeneous. There is no preferred direction, and any sufficiently large subvolume of the Universe has the same gross properties as any other. The history and ultimate future fate of the Universe as a whole depend on how much the expansion of the Universe is decelerated by its own mass. The formation of galaxies and their clustered distribution in space depend not only on the detailed physics of how stars are formed but also on the overall structure of the Universe. Recent observational efforts combined with theoretical progress have brought us to the verge of determining the expansion history of the Universe space curvature from direct observation, linking this to the formation history of galaxies.

The draft was submitted to the Minstry's advisory panel for consideration at a meeting August 10. Copyright Environment News Service (ENS) 1999 For full text and graphics visit: http://ens.lycos.com/ens/aug99/1999L-08-05-05.html Environment Japan to Label 28 Biotech Foods TOKYO, Japan, August 5, 1999 (ENS) - Twenty-eight genetically modified foods would have to carry identifying labels if a draft plan introduced Wednesday by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries becomes law. The draft was submitted to the Minstry's advisory panel for consideration at a meeting August 10. The advisory panel's approval of the draft, would open the way for the Ministry to put the labelling requirement into practice in April 2001. The foods to be labelled include items made from soybeans such as tofu, miso and soy milk, and snack foods containing corn such as popcorn. The plan is expected to be criticized by consumers because it does not go far enough. Some syrups and oils, said by some authorities to contain the highest amount of biotech food ingredients, are not covered by the draft plan. Only genetically altered agricultural produce and processed foods that are sold in retail markets are included in the labelling plan. Ingredients that are marketed to the food industry would not be labelled. Food manufacturers would be responsible for labelling the foods. The list of foods to be labelled is divided into three categories. The first section is for foods of enhanced nutritional value due to genetic engineering. Soybean oils, for instance, can be modified to increase the oleic acid content. Oleic acid is highly nutritious. This oil would be labeled "high oleic acid soybean oil (genetically modified)." Fairview Farms in Iowa provides soybeans to tofu makers in Japan. (Photo courtesy Fairview Farms) If the foods are genetically altered, but their nutrients remain unchanged, they will be listed in the second category. Unprocessed soybeans, which may be in this group, would be labeled, "soybeans (genetically modified)." Most of the 28 foods belong to this second category of labeling. Foods with an unknown mix of natural and genetically modified ingredients would have to carry a label saying that the modified ingredients are present but not specified. Japanese sources say that soy and corn exporting countries, such as the United States and Canada do not want Japan to require the labelling of genetically modified foods, as they are worried about a possible decline in their food exports to Japan. However, U.S. Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman told reporters July 13 that some type of labelling will happen in the United States eventually. "At the end of the day many observers, including me, believe some type of informational labeling is likely to happen. But, I do believe that it is imperative that such labeling does not undermine trade and this promising new technology," Glickman said. Right now, there are about 50 genetically altered plant varieties approved by U.S. Department of Agriculture. Beans are

This response reminds me of a rape prevention workshop I attend more than 20 years ago...a cop recounted how rape wasn't just a crime perpetated against women by men, but that recently (which would have meant sometime in the early 1970s) there had been a series of 'rapes' in the Philadelphia area, where a very good looking woman seduced unwitting males... The cop was quick to add "Now, before you men in the audience say 'Bring her on!', let me add that this woman had a male accomplice who would come into the bedroom during the height of passion and castrate the male victim" Andrew's response also belies the common misperception that rape has to do with sex, when in reality it deals with power and coercion... June ;-) Sexual abuse of *any* kind is more about power and force than it is about sex. Whether it's in the context of domestic violence, street violence, or mind control, it's all about power. The perpetrators often (usually) have deep feelings of either insecurity or overblown self-worth, and use sex as a weapon to assert their superiority. As women move more and more into traditional "male" roles in society, we can expect increasing reports of men being sexually harrassed by women. The case June cites is probably not really an instance of a woman raping a man, however, because I suspect that the male "accomplice" was the instigator and had actually forced the woman to seduce her victims. I'm not challenging the overall theme of June's post, of course--far from it; I agree thoroughly with her comments. Bob = Robert F.

Re: [CTRL] Drought
-Caveat Lector- What you speak of is the very reason that weather control is such a boon to controllers...yeah... go ahead, prove it...but their other actions prove they WILL employ every aspect of the peoples product to enslave the peoplethe money that is frivolously squandered, like the drug czars bottomless coffers, and Clintons IMF stock market bail out funds (JUST 148 MORE DAYS TO PERFECT NONACCOUNTABILITY!), All of it the Peoples Product, are evidence enough of this I think. The discussion of weather control is superfluous in the extreme considering the mind control and debilitative processes of American Media, in particular Television, the most successful weapon ever deployed against the American People...and there are a majority who will argue AGAINST that, and there is the cinch in the rope right there...We cannot even prove to the populous that their TV's have been used to dumb them down intentionally, and thats right there in their faces, plenty of evidence...to get them to accept that government means to enslave them at all costs, utilizing even weather control, is probably paramount to training bears to fly kits...almost impossible to do.

-Caveat Lector- Let Freedom ring .. "FREE SPEECH! Use it, or lose it!" --- Ken Hamblin MEDALS TO CARTER AND FORD LEAVE BUSH OUT By DEBORAH ORIN WASHINGTON - President Clinton will award the nation's highest civilian honor to former Presidents Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford, the White House says - but not to onetime rival George H. Bush. That leaves Bush - father of Republican 2000 front-runner George W. Bush - as the only living ex-president who doesn't hold the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Bush awarded the medal to Ronald Reagan. Clinton also is granting the medal to Democrat Carter's wife Rosalynn for her work on mental health and women's equality, but not to Republican Ford's wife Betty, known for her work on substance abuse and breast cancer. Jimmy Carter is being honored for his work as a diplomat "in hot spots around the world" while Ford is honored for "honesty and integrity" and restoring confidence after Richard Nixon resigned over Watergate. Also getting the medal is Lloyd Bentsen of Texas, Clinton's first Treasury secretary and the 1988 Democratic vice presidential nominee who ran with Michael Dukakis but lost to Bush and Dan Quayle. Others are World Jewish Congress president Edgar Bronfman Sr., labor advocate Evy Dubrow, Sister Isolina Ferre (a community worker in New York and Puerto Rico), civil-rights lawyer Oliver White Hill, diplomat Max Kampelman and environmentalist Edgar Wayburn of the Sierra Club. http://www.nypostonline.com/news/12163.htm It is our right, and it is our duty, to remain free. --- Alan Keyes In The Federalist Papers, No. 47, James Madison labels that arrangement thusly: "The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether on one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny."

[CTRL] Assignments of Clinton Judges Probed
-Caveat Lector- Assignments of Clinton Judges Probed By Janelle Carter Associated Press Writer Friday, August 6, 1999; 3:47 a.m. EDT WASHINGTON (AP) -- The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee has asked Supreme Court Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist to look into a judge's decision to assign cases involving President Clinton's friends to Clinton-appointed judges. Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, who is a Republican presidential hopeful, told Rehnquist he was concerned that the incident ``may have repercussions on the public's confidence in the impartial administration of justice by the federal courts.'' The Associated Press reported last weekend that U.S. District Judge Norma Holloway Johnson bypassed a traditional random assignment system and sent a criminal case against presidential friend Yah Lin ``Charlie'' Trie to U.S. District Judge Paul L. Friedman and similarly sent a separate tax case against presidential friend Webster Hubbell to U.S. District Judge James Robertson. Trie's case was the first major prosecution from the Justice Department investigation of Democratic fund raising in the 1996 election. Friedman, appointed to the bench by Clinton two years earlier, also was assigned by Johnson to two related cases. Several other judges have expressed concern that the assignments had the appearance of a conflict of interest. Friedman dismissed various charges against Trie. One of Friedman's rulings was reversed on appeal, and Trie is to be sentenced in two weeks, probably to probation, on a plea- bargained guilty plea. Robertson dismissed the tax case against Hubbell, a former associate attorney general, who eventually pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor when an appeals court reinstated the case. Robertson was later chosen, at random, to handle a felony case against Hubbell that charged him with lying to federal regulators. Robertson threw out the central felony count in that case, but again an appeals court reversed him, and Hubbell eventually pleaded guilty to one felony count. In a letter to the editor published in The Washington Times earlier this week, Johnson said, ``Politics was not and is never a factor in our case assignments.'' Still, Hatch, in his letter written Tuesday, asked Rehnquist to look into the matter using the Judicial Conference of the United States, a panel of judges that includes chief justices from each judicial circuit. As chief justice, Rehnquist is presiding officer of the conference, which makes policy concerning the administration of U.S. courts. ``I wish to ask you ... to consider whether an examination by the Judicial Conference might be warranted,'' Hatch wrote.

[CTRL] Cancer cure, cure suppression, cancer industry protects $
-Caveat Lector- The Cancer Scandal by Robert K. Lewis Cancer deaths in the west have risen from 4% in 1900, to 25% in 1996. We have been taught to believe that new chemicals in our environment have caused the sharp rise, but evidence indicates that something much more sinister is the cause. The two most common cancer treatments are chemotherapy and radiotherapy: Toxic poison and radiation. You will probably recieve both if diagnosed with cancer, but nowhere can one find any proof that they work. Instead, one finds statistical evidence that they do great harm. Other treatments that do cure cancer, without any of the torture of those two treatments, are rigorously suppressed with the force of law, and by a total media black-out and misrepresentation of facts by government organizations. There is a dramatic "series" of court battles going on right now to suppress a new non-toxic cancer medicine that actually works, according to the National Cancer Institute. Unlike the Simpson media trial which was created by the press, this doctor's cured cancer patients, and others still legally on treatment, picket outside the court, -but get no press coverage at all. First, check-out what these scientists have to say about chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This quote comes from CancerMed: Dr. Shapiro is hardly alone. Alan C. Nixon, PhD, Past President of the American Chemical Society wrote that "As a chemist trained to interpret data, it is incomprehensible to me that physicians can ignore the clear evidence that chemotherapy does much, much more harm than good." In 1990, $3.53 billion was spent on chemotherapy. By 1994 that figure had more than doubled to $7.51 billion. This relentless increase in chemo use was accompanied by a relentless increase in cancer deaths. From MedInfo: Chemotherapy is an effective tool in extending the lives of colon cancer patients; however, only about 5% of colon cancer patients see long term remission, about the same rate as spontaneous remission. This means you chances are no better taking the toxic poison which is chemotherapy, than without it. The only differences are that you will suffer much more during your last few months and do irrepairable damage to vital organs. These quotes are also from CancerMed: The failure of chemotherapy to control cancer has become apparent even to the oncology establishment. Scientific American featured a recent cover story entitled: "The War on Cancer -- It's Being Lost." In it, eminent epidemiologist John C. Bailar III, MD, PhD, Chairman of the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at McGill University cited the relentless increase in cancer deaths in the face of growing use of toxic chemotherapy. He concluded that scientists must look in new directions if they are ever to make progress against this unremitting killer. John Cairns, professor of microbiology at Harvard University, published a devastating 1985 critique in Scientific American. "Aside from certain rare cancers, it is not possible to detect any sudden changes in the death rates for any of the major cancers that could be credited to chemotherapy. Whether any of the common cancers can be cured by chemotherapy has yet to be established." In fact, chemotherapy is curative in very few cancers -- testicular, hodgkins, choriocarcinoma, childhood leukemia. In most common solid tumors -- lung, colon, breast, etc. -- chemotherapy is NOT curative. This 1995 quote about radiation therapy comes from Thomas A. Stamey, M.D: Professor and Chairman, Department of Urology, Stanford University School of Medicine. Much more worrisome, however, was the observation that the remaining 80% of patients had a steeply rising PSA with an average doubling time of 15 months for clinical stage B cancer (those tumors thought to be confined to the prostate) and 7 months for clinical state C cancer (tumors thought to be outside the prostate but within the field of radiation). Since their original doubling times for PSA before irradiation had to be substantially slower(3), we raised the question of whether irradiation converted the 80% who failed therapy into a faster-growing cancer. Because of these observations, we do not believe that irradiation of the prostate--by any technique--is currently justified until such time as the 20% who appear cured can be identified and clearly separated from the 80% of failures who may be made worse by the irradiation. I find this one particularly interesting because my house-mate has stage C prostate cancer and is scheduled for radiotherapy in mid Feb 97. It is planned to here publish the doctor's response to Dr. Stamey's web page, along with any evidence he can provide to show that it increases stage C survival term of mortality. Available evidence shows that neither surgery nor radiotherapy has been proven in a randomised trial to be effective in controlling cancer either by improving survival or reducing mortality. Radiotherapy can reduce recurrence
[CTRL] Fwd: Waco, Ramsey Clark-JFK Jr Murder
8.6.99 As the preponderance of AVAILABLE evidence tends to clearly show the deaths of John Kennedy, wife and sister-in-law were NOT accidental (we should know as we and many others have worked VERY HARD to get such evidence and information to the public), it is UNCONSCIONABLE that such a "possibility" is not even being seriously considered by those agencies and officials charged with "investigating" the wildly SUSPICIOUS deaths. That alone is almost CERTAIN proof that this "possibility" is in fact the ACTUALITY -- i.e.; the deaths were murders. This being the case, and as apparently complicit and/or compromised officials WILL NOT investigate the incident as a multiple homicide, I guess it's up to us. You know, THE PEOPLE. With any such investigation one looks for basic things like motive, opportunity, and means. Motive? Kennedy's tremendous "electability" as a political candidate combined with his obvious and demonstrated penchant for pulling the lid off at least a FEW coverups and conspiracies littering the political landscape AND the fact that his own father and uncle were assassinated by a covert, totalitarian "NWO" cabal for exhibiting just such "maverick" behavior as 'Junior" was showing, ALL give any of a number of potential political rivals and ALSO perpetrators/conspirators in the assassinations and coverups of the two previous Kennedy assassinations (putting aside for now uncles Ted's' extraordinary rash of "near-death" experiences) ample MOTIVE for sending Kennedy into the drink. Opportunity? Tons. Means? Given the variety of weapons and technologies available today, the ways in which a plane could be "interacted" with in a "hostile" and terminal fashion are too numerous to go into. Take your pick Use your imagination. Several days back we made note of the fact that the government's blanket of lies, distortions and deceptions regarding their murderous, psychotic assault on the Branch Dravidian's Waco compound in 1993 is seriously unraveling at this time. TOP dogs on duty during the Waco massacre and ultimately responsible for the actions and conduct of the federal forces there? Attorney General Reno and HER boss Clinton. HARD EVIDENCE from a number of different sources is tearing the government's wretched coverup of this monstrosity to shreds as this is written. Texas Rangers (God bless 'em!) have staked out a position firmly in opposition to the revolting, ongoing distortions of truth and OBSTRUCTION of justice still being perpetrated by the federal government regarding the Waco slaughter. The Rangers are in possession of material evidence clearly showing that incendiary devices and potential incendiary devices WERE fired into the compound by federal agents despite nonstop claims by Reno to the contrary. Other evidence solidly supporting this fact has come from documents and materials provided by the National Reconnaissance Office and even the FBI. (Obviously some agents cannot stomach the grotesque horror unleashed by the government at Waco). Suffice to say this is HARD, irrefutable EVIDENCE. One of the principal attorneys helping Waco survivors in their legal efforts to reopen the whole issue and bring the truth to light is former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark. Clark, interestingly enough, has been VERY closely connected to the late John Kennedy Jr. for some time. The two had collaborated on a number of undertakings and were known to share viewpoints on a number of issues relating to government and government policies, principles, guidelines and such. Bear in mind here the timing: as Kennedy had just confirmed all arrangements necessary for conducting an interview with Adminstration bruiser Janet Reno in the very near future. It's KNOWN that tough questions about Waco and Reno's and the Clinton Administration's tactics there were HIGH on Kennedy's list for Reno. Kennedy had been devoting lots of paper to exposing "conspiracies" and coverups in George Magazine. Kennedy by all indications was going to run for national political office; probably next year against Hillary Clinton in the NY Senate primary; perhaps even right for the presidency in 2000. He was DEFINITELY set to make a move. Kennedy's close buddy Ramsey Clark had been DEEPLY involved in unearthing solid and POWERFUL evidence of federal government malfeasance regarding their conduct at Waco. The efforts of Clark, the Texas Rangers, "Rules of Engagement" filmmaker Michael McNulty, Texas Department of Public Safety chairman James B. Francis Jr. and a number of disaffected federal agents are currently causing the wall of lies and coverup about the government's massacre of defenseless citizens to crumble--and when it does, Clinton, Reno along with ATF, FBI and other agency chiefs will be revealed as the murderous criminals they are. Ramsey Clark is right in the MIDDLE of this process, and would UNDOUBTEDLY have been funneling critical information to JFK Jr JUST as Kennedy's interview with Reno would have

After the crash--for SOME reason--this issue was recalled, destroyed and a fill-in issue put out which had SOME, but not a lot, of coverage regarding the crash. Even THIS issue however, does provide a SOLID indication that Kennedy was on the brink of political involvement at the national level, on page 52, last paragraph on the page in the article Huddling Against History. Check this article out! John Quinn = = = = = = = = = = = = = = John F. Kennedy Jr-Evidence Of A Cover up by Michael Rivero Part 5: The crash of John F. Kennedy Jr's aircraft and the indications of a cover-up. Having established that the government and the media have a prior (and quite deplorable) record of deliberate lies to the public, let us look at how the official story of the crash of John F. Kennedy Jr's plane evolved, and why it is suspect. As first reported by United Press International, John F. Kennedy Jr. on approach to Martha's Vineyard in 8 mile visibility, was in radio contact with the ground, calmly informing them of his intentions to drop off a passenger before proceeding to Hyannis airport. Then, according to ABC News, JFK Jr's plane went into a steep dive, and crashed. However, even before the wreckage was found, the story being put out in the media began to change. Gone was the previously reported radio conversation a calm JFK Jr. had with ground personnel just before the plane fell out of the sky, replaced by a declaration from the NTSB that JFK Jr. had not used his radio at all as he approached Martha's Vineyard. Gone also was the originally reported 8 mile visibility while the media began to hammer home the claim that Martha's Vineyard had been totally blanketed with a haze so heavy that pilots in the air would have been blind. No sooner were the various stories put out but they quickly fell apart. Here are some examples. PROPAGANDA: JFK Jr. was lost. FACT: When JFK Jr. radioed controllers on the Cape (as reported on Boston TV News) to announce his approach to Martha's Vineyard, radar showed him to be just where he stated he was and at the correct altitude for the approach. PROPAGANDA: JK Jr. was in "over his head". FACT: JFK Jr's conversational tone on the radio reveals that he was calm. He was not disoriented. He didn't ask for directions. He didn't indicate he had any problem at all. He clearly was confident he was going to find the airport and land. PROPAGANDA: JFK Jr. stalled the plane. FACT: The radar track shows that he was well above stall speed. PROPAGANDA: JFK Jr. went into a steep turn and lost hi horizon. FACT: There is no reason for JFK Jr. to have been in any turn at all at that point on the flight path leading into the airport. He was already lined up with the main runway at Martha's Vineyard airport. PROPAGANDA: JFK Jr. didn't know his altitude and simply "flew into the ocean". FACT: The radar track shows him flying at the proper altitude, then (as ABC News put it) "falling out of the sky". PROPAGANDA: JFK Jr. lost his instruments, and that is why he could not handle the dark and hazy (?) conditions FACT: The fact that the radar was getting good data from his encoding altimeter proves his instruments were operating. PROPAGANDA: JFK Jr would have lost his artificial horizon if the vacuum pump failed in the aircraft. FACT: MSNBC is the only media outlet to have tried to hype this one, using a self-proclaimed "aviation expert". His claim is also false, as there is a backup vacuum system in the pitot assembly of that aircraft. PROPAGANDA JFK Jr. was a reckless pilot. FACT: This claim was planted everywhere in the media, always attributed to an "unnamed source". One reporter, Cindy Adams at the New York Post, later had cause to suspect she had been lied to. So did Andrew Goldman at the New York Observer. Interviews with individuals directly familier with JFK Jr's flying ability shown on Inside Edition confirmed that he was a highly skilled and careful pilot. PROPAGANDA JFK Jr's wife was afraid to fly with him. FACT: Again a story attributed to "unnamed sources", and again debunked by the interviews shown on Inside Edition. JFK Jr's wife had no problem flying with JFK Jr. and flew with him often. PROPAGANDA JFK Jr. had only 40 hours experience. FACT: He had 40 hours in that one aircraft. His total experience was about 300 hours, more than enough to qualify him for a commercial pilot's license. According to FAA statistics, 300 hours made him a more careful and safer pilot than one with 1000 hours, who is more complacent. PROPAGANDA The weather was very hazy. FACT: The FAA issued VFR weather conditions that night, and

Do you think this branch of your family might know a nice Jewish boy for you? Hey, I'm just asking! Why didn't you tell us before? Well, I can understand why you didn't want anyone to know that your step-grandfather and half-aunt were Jewish. You and that husband, running for national office. Meshuggeneh people from Des Moines don't know from Jews. Who needs the tsuris? But now, you want to be senator from New York. Senator! Ladies these days think they can be senators. Gevald. What next? A mohel? But you're a smart cookie. So go be a senator, and God bless. Maybe in the Senate you can find a nice husband and settle down. I've got to admit, when you talked about giving the Arabs a piece of the Holy Land, you almost fooled me into thinking you don't care much for your people. I read about this in "Women Who Love Too Much." You were in denial about your roots. Denial! So then I pick up a copy of that nice newspaper, the Jewish Forward. That sweet boy who writes for the Forward (I think he's Jewish) got a story that the High-and-Mighty-New-York-Times-Thank-You-Very-Much couldn't get. Your secret Jewish family. Hillary, I was so thrilled to find out that you actually met these people. But really, sweetie, I don't mean to kvetch, but couldn't you have invited them to the White House? What, are you ashamed? Well, now it comes out. And your secret is safe with me. That nice boy from the Forward tells me it wasn't you who told him about your Jewish secret. But we know better, Hillary, don't we? I mean, New Yorkers aren't like those anti-Semites in Duluth. They'll love you for being Jewish. I mean half-Jewish. Well, you know, for knowing a couple of Jews. Just between you and me, I thought that Nita Lowey was too smart for her own good. Now that you're practically a Jew, too - and plan to live in Westchester - we don't need her anymore! So how did you get the story out, Hillary? After all these years? OK, I know, I know. Government secrets. Hush-hush. Don't tell me. I'll light a Shabbos candle for you, and pray you get elected.

-Caveat Lector- Here it is... found at http://jya.com/federalism.htm THE WHITE HOUSE Office of the Press Secretary _ For Immediate Release August 5, 1999 EXECUTIVE ORDER - - - - - - - FEDERALISM By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and in order to guarantee the division of governmental responsibilities between the national government and the States that was intended by the Framers of the Constitution, to ensure that the principles of federalism established by the Framers guide the executive departments and agencies in the formulation and implementation of policies, and to further the policies of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act, it is hereby ordered as follows: Section 1. Definitions. For purposes of this order: (a) "Policies that have federalism implications" refers to regulations, legislative comments or proposed legislation, and other policy statements or actions that have substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. (b) "State" or "States" refer to the States of the United States of America, individually or collectively, and, where relevant, to State governments, including units of local government and other political subdivisions established by the States. (c) "Agency" means any authority of the United States that is an "agency" under 44 U.S.C. 3502(1), other than those considered to be independent regulatory agencies, as defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(5). (d) "State and local officials" means elected officials of State and local governments or their representative national organizations. Sec. 2. Fundamental Federalism Principles. In formulating and implementing policies that have federalism implications, agencies shall be guided by the following fundamental federalism principles: (a) Federalism is rooted in the belief that issues that are not national in scope or significance are most appropriately addressed by the level of government closest to the people. (b) The people of the States created the national government and delegated to it enumerated governmental powers. All other sovereign powers, save those expressly prohibited the States by the Constitution, are reserved to the States or to the people. (c) The constitutional relationship among sovereign governments, State and national, is inherent in the very structure of the Constitution and is formalized in and protected by the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution. (d) The people of the States are free, subject only to restrictions in the Constitution itself or in constitutionally authorized Acts of Congress, to define the moral, political, and legal character of their lives. (e) The Framers recognized that the States possess unique authorities, qualities, and abilities to meet the needs of the people and should function as laboratories of democracy. (f) The nature of our constitutional system encourages a healthy diversity in the public policies adopted by the people of the several States according to their own conditions, needs, and desires. In the search for enlightened public policy, individual States and communities are free to experiment with a variety of approaches to public issues. One-size-fits-all approaches to public policy problems can inhibit the creation of effective solutions to those problems. (g) Acts of the national government -- whether legislative, executive, or judicial in nature -- that exceed the enumerated powers of that government under the Constitution violate the principle of federalism established by the Framers. (h) Policies of the national government should recognize the responsibility of -- and should encourage opportunities for -- individuals, families, neighborhoods, local governments, and private associations to achieve their personal, social, and economic objectives through cooperative effort. (i) The national government should be deferential to the States when taking action that affects the policymaking discretion of the States and should act only with the greatest caution where State or local governments have identified uncertainties regarding the constitutional or statutory authority of the national government. Sec. 3. Federalism Policymaking Criteria. In addition to adhering to the fundamental federalism principles set forth in section 2, agencies shall adhere, to the extent permitted by law, to the following criteria when formulating and implementing policies that have federalism implications: (a) There shall be strict adherence to constitutional principles. Agencies shall closely examine the constitutional and statutory authority supporting any action that would limit the policymaking discretion of the States and shall carefully assess the necessity for such

-Caveat Lector- JUDICIAL WATCH, INC.PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Tom Fitton Friday, August 6, 1999 (202) 646-5172 JUDICIAL WATCH ASKS HIGHER COURT TO INVESTIGATE ALLEGATIONS CONCERNING CLINTON APPOINTEES For Now, Ball Entrusted To Appellate Court (Washington, August 6). Yesterday, as reported by the Associated Press, Judicial Watch asked the higher court, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, to investigate recent allegations that certain assignments of cases concerning the Clinton Administration and The White House have been steered to recently appointed Clinton judges, and that these Clinton judges, who are also alleged to have once called themselves "the Magnificent Seven," have been holding meetings among themselves. Ordinarily, it is the appellate court which is encharged under law to investigate allegations concerning the conduct of lower court judges. Judicial Watch will await these findings before deciding whether further steps are necessary, as, under these circumstances, the judicial system should be allowed the first opportunity to investigate and take whatever corrective steps are necessary. As many cases concerning the Clinton Administration and The White House are now pending before Clinton appointed judges, Judicial Watch has asked for a swift investigation.

[CTRL] Fwd: Witness to Airborne Explosion re Kennedy Crash Unavailable
Original Message Subject: Vineyard Gazette Reporter Unapproachable Date: Fri, 06 Aug 1999 14:09:51 -0400 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Folks, I just phoned the Martha's Vineyard Gazette, and spoke with a woman there. I asked her about the statement, in the early reports of the John F. Kennedy Jr. plane crash, that a reporter for the Martha's Vineyard Gazette had witnessed an explosion in the sky around the time of the crash. She replied, "Oh, that story was completely bogus. What really happened was that someone was shooting off fireworks on Falmouth." "Falmouth?" I said, "Is that an island?" "Falmouth," she said, "is the closest point to Martha's Vineyard." [At this point we ought to go to "mapsonus" or something, and locate a map of Falmouth and Martha's Vineyard.] I said, "But this reporter witnessed an explosion in the SKY." She countered, "Well, they were shooting rockets up in the air, or something like that." Fearing that I might scare her off if I continued along this line of inquiry, I asked, "May I speak with the reporter who witnessed this?" "Oh, no," she replied nervously, "we can't do that." I said, "Oh, that's strange. What would be the problem with speaking to a reporter?" She repeated, "We can't permit that." I said, "Okay, can you at least give me his name?" "No, we can't do that, either," she persisted." Then she added, "He no longer works for us," almost as if she were making it up, just to turn me away. And then when I responded in a surprised "Ohhh", she suddenly realized that that comment made matters worse, and, in a jolt of vexation, she sputtered, "Oh, no, no -- it has nothing to do with that incident; he went back to school." "Oh," I said, "so is he a journalism student?" After an answerless pause, I thanked her and said goodbye. I think she was relieved. What do you make of this, folks? What questions would you have asked if you had called the Martha's Vineyard Gazette, at (508)627-4311 ?

[CTRL] Fwd: JFK Jr/Crucial UPI Article-RADIO CONTACT MADE
8.6.99 Recipients-- Whether through oversight, good luck or magic, the PROFOUNDLY important UPI news article datelined July 17, AQUINNAH, Mass. (web-published Sunday, 18 July 1999 2:08 [GMT]) is NOW POSTED at UPI's website at the following URL. http://www.upi.com/corp/news/jfkjr3.html http://www.upi.com/corp/news/jfkjr3.html This truly significant report states CLEARLY that Kennedy radioed the Martha's Vineyard airport at 9:39 PM, and engaged in a communication which by it's very CONTENT, CONTEXT and TIMING almost certainly invalidates completely oft-regurgitated static about "pilot error". By all reasonable estimations Kennedy was calm, alert, coherent, aware of location, direction, position relative to land and in full command of the situation when this contact WAS MADE. Kennedy did NOT just say a few words to air controllers. He in FACT had a relatively lengthy exchange, in which he made note of his plans for later that evening re: flying to Hyannis, and the like. This is IN the UPI article; which itself CLEARLY states that the same report on his conversation AND it's content was reported by WVCB-TV Boston, and ABC News. Only someone who was unreasonably clinging to a certain set of "beliefs" would be so paranoid as to believe that UPI, conspiring with the Boston TV station, ABC News and whichever other news outlets reported this information. just decided to make this all up out of thin air. SECONDS AFTER this contact was completed it was ALL OVER. This same UPI article ALSO notes an eyewitness on Philbin Beach to an airborne explosion at the time of the Kennedy crash, identified only as a reporter for the Vineyard Gazette newspaper (for some reason the Gazette has REFUSED to identify him). Another eyewitness was staying at the Kennedy family estate right overlooking Philbin Beach that night; a friend of newscaster Shepherd Smith's producer at FOX-TV and named repeatedly by Smith as a witness all day Saturday on Fox. This person was in fact due to attend the Rory Kennedy wedding Saturday in Hyannis. A third witness who HEARD an explosion in the air at this same time is Victor Pribanic, a Pittsburgh lawyer fishing on the Vineyard and interviewed by The Martha's Vineyard Times about what he witnessed. Anyone who rationally examines the evidence and KNOWN FACTS here cannot conclude OTHER than that there is official coverup, dis and mis-information abounding about the crash. THAT IN ITSELF is solid evidence of the crash was NON-ACCIDENTAL.

He reportedly said he was making his final approach. Moments later, radar operated by the Federal Aviation Administration showed the plane went into a dive and dropped 1,200 feet in just 12 seconds, according to ABC News. In his final approach message, WCVB-TV said Kennedy told controllers at the airport that he planned to drop off his wife's sister and then take off again between 11 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. for Hyannis Airport.

[CTRL] Leonard Peltier month Nov'99 in DC
-Caveat Lector- Please do whatever you can to alert your interested contacts of this important activity coming up November in DC for the freedom of Leonard Peltier (#1 US political prisoner) This will be an excellent networking opportunity to "cross-pollinate" with many different issue group activists coming together in this cause. Leonard has a degenerating severe medical condition that requires special treatment refused by the Board of Prisons over the objections of his doctor and his life and safety are currently at risk. Case and other details at http://members.xoom.com/freepeltier/ Thanks, David Williams From: LPDC [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Details-November Leonard Peltier Freedom Month Date: Tuesday, August 03, 1999 9:39 AM Dear Leonard Peltier Supporters, Below is more detailed follow up on the November Leonard Peltier Freedom Month Campaign. Take a look and let us know what you can do, what you think, and any suggestions you may have. Those who would like to be in DC for part of the month but are not sure when will be the best date to come, you may want to be there at the opening. We are hoping the event will begin November 1, but we are waiting to hear from Archbishop Desmond Tutu who we have asked to open the event. We will keep you up to date on this. We especially need people from the East Coast to come during different parts of the month so that there will be an ongoing presence. Please collect names of people an organizations on the East Coast who can help who are not registered with us. Thank you for your support. (If you and/or your organization can contribute in any of the ways listed please get in contact with us asap.) In solidarity, The LPDC PS If you are in graphic design and/or printing and can help us to design a poster for this campaign please call us! NOVEMBER, 1999 LEONARD PELTIER FREEDOM MONTH Its 1999, why is Leonard Peltier still in prison? MORE SPECIFICALLY We realize that what we are proposing will be difficult to organize and implement, especially with the very short amount of time we have to organize it. However, it is crucial and extremely urgent that we put all of our efforts together and make a strong attempt to do this now, before Leonards health further deteriorates, before the current momentum is lost, before Clinton leaves office, and before another year of Leonards life is stolen away from him, his people and his family. Please make a serious commitment in whatever way you are able to help free Leonard Peltier before the year 2000. DESIRED EFFECT The desired effect of the November Freedom Campaign is to: 1. Draw enough positive attention to Leonards case to bring about serious concern in both the White House and Congress. 2. One of the most serious concerns of politicians is popular public opinion which is largely impacted by the media. We must get enough media attention to bring about such concern. 3. To have a unique and visual theme that will attract the necessary media attention. 4. To further educate the public and the government about the Peltier case. 5. To build up enough pressure from Congress and the public to get Clinton to grant Executive Clemency to Peltier. 6. If Clinton does not grant clemency, to build enough pressure in Congress and the public so that he will be granted parole this Spring. CHARACTER AND IMAGE OF THE EVENT This event should be representative of all that Leonard Peltier stands for and symbolizes. Therefore the event should be strong, largely spiritual, cultural, traditional, and respectful. The event should culminate all of the reasons why he should be freed. Leonard Peltier is a symbol of injustice and persecution of Indigenous Peoples and therefore we urge all who resist such injustice and persecution to come and represent Leonard at this time. IN WHAT WAY WILL WE PORTRAY THESE ASPECTS? SPIRITUAL ASPECTS: 1. Run For Freedom -The event will begin with a traditional, spiritual Run For Freedom which will start at the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia and finish in Washington DC. 2. Opening prayer Each morning will begin with a prayer and ceremony that are appropriate to be held in public. Traditional Spiritual leaders such as David Chief and Arvol Looking Horse will conduct these and others such as Archbishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa are being invited as well. (Care will be taken so that ceremonies are not filmed or photographed when inappropriate). 3. Freedom Fasters There will be a presence of at least ten people fasting in front of the White House for designated amounts of time during the entire month. This will be a spiritual fast; those fasting will prepare themselves with the guidance of spiritual advisors. 4. Vigils Each night a candlelight vigil will be held in front of the White House. All are welcome to take part. At this time people in attendance can make offerings or say a few words about why they are there. CULTURAL ASPECTS: 1.

[CTRL] The Progressive Response 6 August 1999
-Caveat Lector- -- The Progressive Response 6 August 1999 Vol. 3, No. 28 Editor: Erik Leaver -- The Progressive Response (PR) is a weekly service of Foreign Policy in Focus (FPIF), a joint project of the Interhemispheric Resource Center and the Institute for Policy Studies. We encourage responses to the opinions expressed in PR. -- Table of Contents I. Updates and Out-Takes *** CORPORATE WELFARE AND FOREIGN POLICY *** By Janice Shields *** EXPORT-IMPORT BANK *** By Janice Shields *** OVERSEAS PRIVATE INVESTMENT CORPORATION *** By Janice Shields *** CORPORATE WELFARE RESOURCES *** II. Comments *** TIME FOR ABOLITION *** By Peter Weiss *** QUESTIONING THE WAR ON DRUGS *** By Paul Newlin -- (Editor's note: With the House voting to pass a $792 billion dollar tax cut on Thursday and the Senate slated to vote on the measure late Thursday night, multinational corporations are posed to benefit once again. The Washington Post reported that multinational corporations are posed to gain $24 billion dollars in tax breaks over the next ten years through foreign tax credits. Other specific tax breaks are slated for arms exporters, oil and gas operators, and the steel industry. Unfortunately, these types of tax breaks are not new. A special report issued by the In Focus project this week notes that the U.S. government provides wealthy corporations with more than $167 billion dollars in "corporate welfare" every year. Accompanying the report are two briefing papers focusing on major corporate welfare programs, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) and the Export-Import Bank (Eximbank). In all three pieces, author Janice Shields, coordinator of the Corporate Welfare and TaxWatch projects of the Institute for Business Research, exposes the major benefactors behind these programs and outlines measures to curb the billions these corporations receive each year from taxpayers.) -- *** CORPORATE WELFARE AND FOREIGN POLICY *** By Janice Shields The U.S. government doles out more than $167 billion annually in what critics dub "aid for dependent corporations (AFDC)." This corporate welfare includes: (1) cash payments by governments to businesses; (2) government provision of below-cost products and services, such as loans and insurance, to businesses; (3) tax breaks for businesses; (4) laws-and changes in laws-that help business bottom lines; and (5) government purchases of goods and services from businesses at inflated prices (though laws are supposed to prevent this). U.S. aid for international investors, exporters, and importers exceeds $32 billion annually and benefits such "needy" recipients as General Motors, Citibank, Archer Daniels Midland, and Boeing. The Market Access Program (MAP), for example, uses taxpayer money to reimburse corporate foreign advertising costs. The Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) supplies loans and insurance to companies investing abroad. Federal tax law allows exporters to exempt a portion of revenues from taxation. The Sugar Program, which limits U.S. sugar imports, increases the sweetener industry's income by keeping supplies lower, leading to higher prices. The validity of corporate arguments supporting their welfare programs is often questionable. For example, some executives claim that subsidies and tax breaks are needed to create or maintain U.S. exports and jobs. Proponents of MAP contend that these subsidies generate $16 in export revenue for every $1 in taxpayer costs. Yet, U.S. General Accounting Office studies could not document any increase in exports due to MAP expenditures. Similarly, the Congressional Research Service could not confirm the job creation claims of OPIC beneficiaries. The tax break that allows U.S. corporations to defer payment of more than $1.3 billion annually in U.S. taxes on foreign earnings until remitted actually encourages U.S. companies to invest overseas. Corporate welfare may also harm international relations, especially when companies force countries to compete against each other to attract businesses by offering more subsidies and tax breaks or when countries use subsidies and tax breaks to retaliate against each other's policies. For example, the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture recently threatened to provide Export Enhancement Program cash bonuses to U.S. flour exporters as a signal to the European Union that he was concerned about European flour subsidies. Elements of both the progressive and conservative political camps are campaigning to cut corporate welfare, though they seek different outcomes. Progressives argue that the money should be used instead to

Re: [CTRL] Drought
-Caveat Lector- Droughts are cyclic, yes. So are economic Depressions and political upheavals. Unfortunately, there's a correlation between all those phenomena. Just another replay of the '20s and '30s ... Some Lose, Some Win in Drought By BILL BERGSTROM .c The Associated Press Al Pinkerton hasn't had a day off since May. As the Al in Al's Water Hauling Service, he's been making emergency deliveries at all hours to homeowners whose wells run low, trailer parks with dry cisterns and farmers with thirsty animals. While people with weather-dependent businesses, such as farmers and landscapers, are losing money because of the dreadful Eastern drought, the driest of times means the best of times for some others. Business is up for water haulers, well drillers, and even contractors, who are running ahead of schedule on some projects because so few work days have been lost to rain. And you'll get no dry whines from vintners, either. Pinkerton's company operates six tractor-trailer-sized water tankers that he fills with water from West Penn Water Co., the company that serves Pittsburgh and the surrounding area. The 53-year-old Pinkerton has pulled some all-nighters and his 10 employees have been busy all summer. The company trucked about 4 million gallons of water to customers during July, about 1 million gallons more than normal for the month, he said. He wouldn't mind a break. ``I guess it's good (for business), but it's hard to keep control of everything,'' he said. ``If we get a little bit of rain, it will taper off some.'' The drought has also meant a deluge of business for drilling companies trying to sink wells faster than water tables recede. Hawk Drilling Co. in Ballston Spa, N.Y., which usually gets 30 orders all summer, has received more than 50 since May. The Palmer Drought Index - which goes from +5 to -5 with -5 the most serious - has hit -4.7 this summer in the Mohawk Valley of New York state, drying up older, shallower wells. As the company juggled calls, emergency work for a hospice forced those on the long waiting list to wait even longer. ``It's like we're almost playing God, and we don't want to be that,'' said Janice Baldwin, Hawk Drilling's vice president. The drought is so severe that farmers in West Virginia and drought-stricken parts of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, Virginia and Kentucky are eligible for federal low-interest loans because of their withered crops. Nursery and landscaping firms are laying off workers. And New England merchants and innkeepers already are bracing for reduced tourism this fall, as the drought robs the autumn foliage of some of its majesty. The drought is unlikely to have an immediate economic impact, though, other than damage to farmers, said Mark Vitner, economist at First Union Capital Markets Group in Charlotte, N.C. Tourism hasn't been greatly affected, he noted. ``In the summer, people want to go to the beach and the beach has plenty of water,'' he said. ``The mountains are still cool.'' Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman said Friday the drought has not driven up commodity and consumer prices because it is not affecting the large growing regions of the Midwest and California. In Maryland, the drought has vintners looking forward to a good year. Grapes have deep roots that can reach moist soil, and dry weather means darker, sweeter grapes. ``We're almost a mirror image of other kinds of farming,'' said Rob Deford, president of Boordy Vineyards in the Baltimore County community of Hydes. ``They have all my sympathy, but we're doing very well.'' Al King, owner of Kanawha Stone in Charleston, W.Va., said the weather has idled his earthmovers only one day this summer. His company finished excavation work for a new shopping center ahead of schedule, and now a new home improvement store there will be completed next week, two months early. ``For the excavation business, it is pretty good,'' King said. As lakes and rivers ebb, boaters are running aground, on rocks and sandbars that usually are far below the surface. At Coastal Marina in Port Clinton, Ohio, where Lake Erie water levels are hitting 30-year lows, general manager Jeff Wilson said hull and propeller repairs are up 20 percent. But back on terra firma, sales are off 50 percent at the Bountiful Acres Nursery and Garden Center in Buckingham, Pa. ``It's too dry to plant,'' owner Anne Matthews said. Last week, the nursery laid off the 15 employees on its three landscaping crews. Customers' lawns dried up, shrubs were not growing enough to trim and it was too dry to plant. There were no mowers left to fix, or blades to sharpen. The only thing selling was watering equipment. ``We are having a lot of sales of automatic timer devices and trickle hoses,'' Ms. Matthews said. ``That's big in Arizona and all over the West. Now it's becoming popular in the East.'' The Democrats' response: Clinton: States Seeing Worst Drought WASHINGTON (AP) - The current drought is

[CTRL] Vietnam in Colombia
-Caveat Lector- "A powerful leftist guerrilla movement, largely financed by drug trafficking, has been scoring battlefield gains in Colombia." Oh, horrors! Colombia obviously needs US support to create the equivalent of the Contras, "a powerful RIGHTIST guerrilla movement largely financed by drugs." So drug money from BOTH sides can be laundered by the same bank, who'll be investing it all on Wall Street, to keep the global stock market bubble from bursting. GOP Sees Colombia As Another Vietnam By GEORGE GEDDA .c The Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) - Republican lawmakers said Friday advances in Colombia by ``narco-guerrillas'' could lead to a Vietnam-type debacle for the United States and blamed feeble Clinton administration policies. Rep. Dan Burton, R-Ind., chairman of the House Government Reform Committee, said he has visions of Americans someday fleeing Colombia by helicopter from the roof of the U.S. Embassy, duplicating the nightmarish U.S. departure from Saigon in April 1975 as the city fell to communist forces. Rep. Mark Souder, R-Ind., said Colombia is in some ways more of a headache for the United States than was Vietnam, because drugs that originate in Colombia threaten the lives of countless Americans. That, he said, never was an issue in Vietnam. He also drew a parallel between assistance to Colombia and U.S. efforts to defeat communism in Vietnam. ``There is just enough to never quite win,'' he said. The lawmakers spoke at a House Government Reform subcommittee hearing that exposed deep, often partisan divisions over the deteriorating situation in Colombia. A powerful 25,000-member Colombian leftist guerrilla movement, largely financed by drug trafficking, has been scoring battlefield gains of late. The Clinton administration supports counternarcotics efforts by Colombian forces but has avoided involvement in counterinsurgency activities. There were expressions of alarm Friday about the situation, especially by Republicans. A letter to President Clinton from Senate majority leader Trent Lott, R-Miss., and House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., was introduced at the hearing. They said recent developments in Colombia threaten democracy and, if unchecked, ``will have severe implications for the United States of America.'' They demanded that Clinton develop a comprehensive plan to deal with the situation. The subcommittee's chairman, John Mica, R-Fla., said, ``Our hemisphere and the United States are facing one of the greatest challenges to regional and national security as the situation with Colombia continues to deteriorate.'' Some Democrats expressed doubt whether an expansion in U.S.-backed interdiction efforts would make a difference. They suggested that U.S. resources focus on education of American youth and an expansion of treatment centers. Rep. Janice Schakowsky, D-Ill., said there has been no net reduction in drug flows from Colombia despite outlays of $625 million in recent years. ``Why should we believe that investing more in this plan will achieve a different result?'' she asked. Deeper U.S. involvement in Colombia could aggravate the problem, Rep. Edolphus Townes, R-N.Y. , suggested. He said U.S. resources should be devoted to prevention programs at home, and Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., agreed. ``If you didn't have demand, you wouldn't have to worry about Colombia,'' Cummings said. Tempers flared briefly at the hearing as House International Relations Committee chairman Benjamin Gilman, R-N.Y. disagreed on points of fact with White House drug control chief Barry McCaffrey. Gilman charged that only two of 30 Black Hawk helicopters authorized by Congress for Colombia in 1996 have been delivered. McCaffrey replied that seven have been delivered to the Army and 13 to the Air Force. Six more will be sent to the Colombian police, some in October and the rest in March, he said. Gilman also charged that ineffective counternarcotics policy in Colombia has led to a heroin epidemic on the East Coast. McCaffrey said only a tiny percentage of heroin traffic comes from Colombia, compared with Burma and Afghanistan. There also was a difference of opinion as to how much leftist guerrillas in Colombia derive from the narcotics trade. Burton said the figure could be as high as $1.2 billion a year. McCaffrey said it could be as low as $215 million. DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic screeds are not allowed.

[CTRL] Fortress on Pennsylvania Avenue
-Caveat Lector- Tighter Security Protects Capital By DAVID BRISCOE .c The Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) - Over the past decade, metal detectors, armed guards and anti-bomb barriers disguised as mammoth planters have become almost as prominent in the capital as statues and national monuments. Saturday's first anniversary of the destruction of two U.S. embassies in Africa has pushed security to new levels, with tours of the FBI on hold and all police agencies on the lookout for the next terrorist bomber. ``We understand, but you're not safe anywhere really,'' said Mike Kasper of New Baltimore, Mich., who was turned away with his family Friday from the J. Edgar Hoover FBI headquarters building. Kasper's wife, Penny, said she and their two sons wanted to see the agency's huge collection of confiscated weapons. Washington tightens up security around several bloody anniversaries: Feb. 26, for the World Trade Center bombing in 1993; April 19, for the federal assault that same year on the Branch Davidian sect stronghold in Waco, Texas, and for the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing; and now Aug. 7, for the embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania. The capital never has suffered a major terrorist attack, but persistent threats and violent acts around the globe are prompting ever-heavier security in a city that attracts guests ranging from heads of state to hordes of local and international tourists. Pennsylvania Avenue was closed off in front of the White House and barricades erected at several federal offices after Middle East terrorists hit the World Trade Center in 1993. That security remains in place. Metal detectors and new security walls went up at more buildings and monuments after domestic terrorists killed 168 people at the Oklahoma City federal building. Concrete and steel barricades now wall the State Department, erected since the dual embassy bombings that killed 224, including 12 Americans. On Thursday, the State Department renewed a warning for all Americans worldwide to avoid routines, be suspicious of unfamiliar packages and ``keep a low profile'' abroad. Evidence of how caught up the city is in protecting itself came early Friday when federal agents with firemen and a bomb squad, after receiving word of a possible bomb-making operation, raided a house in a quiet neighborhood far from the monuments. Containers seen carried into the building turned out to be part of a neighborhood plan to store water for the new millennium. At the State Department, concrete barriers have ringed the building since the embassy bombings, with driveways blocked by metal barriers that rise from the ground or by vans moved only for authorized vehicles. The State Department's main entrance on C Street, where visitors used to be dropped off from an elegant circular driveway, is now blocked. Taxis and limousines leave passengers at the curb. The latest security web affects millions of tourists, constituents and residents who pass through metal detectors, submit to probing questions and get pinned with tags whenever they visit federal offices. Sgt. Robert MacLean of the U.S. Park Police said officers around monuments and parks are on ``heightened awareness'' because of the bombing anniversary. ``We're preparing for trouble, but we don't know if any trouble will happen,'' said Commander Michael Radzilowski of the District of Columbia police, speaking about both the bombing anniversary and a planned neo-Nazi rally Saturday. A sign at the entrance to the FBI Building on Friday said tours have reached ``capacity visitation,'' but the FBI announced last week the popular tours would close indefinitely because of ``unconfirmed threats.'' Visitors rarely complain about security. ``I'm sure the FBI has better things to do than worry about tourists,'' said Rita Delrue of Minnetonka, Minn., touring the city with family members from Belgium. Told of terrorist threats, she said, ``Then it's even more sensible.'' On Capitol Hill, metal detectors and other measures have been used for years, but ordinary people wander most hallways. Unlike procedures in most federal offices, people enter the Capitol or its surrounding offices without identification. Some of the tightest security is at the Pentagon, but its main entrance doubles as a major station for Washington's subway and suburban bus systems through which thousands pass without security checks. Within its labyrinth of hallways, however, no one is allowed without an escort except authorized employees displaying badges. Security at the city's most prominent target - the White House - has increased steadily since the late 1980s after an assassination attempt on President Reagan at the entrance to a Washington hotel. Sharpshooters patrol the roof, and armed officers guard gates to the 18-acre compound. Despite the closure of Pennsylvania Avenue, it remains paved. And in a side-benefit of tight security, is open to pedestrians, skateboarders and occasional informal street
[CTRL] Gothic Post-Modernism
-Caveat Lector- Exploring Cult of Ruins in U.K. By GRAHAM HEATHCOTE .c The Associated Press LONDON (AP) - Sir John Soane, the great British architect, wasn't content simply to design the Bank of England built in 1833: He also commissioned a drawing of how the bank might appear one day as a ruin. Soane's fascination with ruins extended to the garden of his London home, where, like other fashionable gardeners of the day, he erected a mock ruin. So the house, now known as Sir John Soane's Museum, is a fitting site for the ``Visions of Ruin'' exhibition running through Aug. 28. Spanning 250 years, the exhibition looks at the treatment of ruins in paintings, drawings, models, books and photographs. False ruins, also known as ``follies,'' enjoyed a great vogue in the 18th century. London's Kew Gardens has a brick and stone gateway fashioned to be a Roman ruin, designed in the 1750s by Sir William Chambers. Artists drew and painted what they thought cities would look like as ruins, and Antoine Careme, a Paris chef, even served blancmanges in the shape of Roman ruins. Hubert Robert, a French painter whose death certificate described him as ``Robert of the ruins,'' was particularly attracted to ancient remains. Robert's paintings inspired the critic Denis Diderot to write in 1767: ``How old this world is! I walk between two eternities. Wherever I turn my eyes, the objects that surround me foretell an end and help me resign myself to the one that awaits me. What is my ephemeral existence compared to that of this crumbling stone?'' The exhibition notes that the tradition has not died. This year's Chelsea Flower Show had a ``Millennium Ruin'' designed by a manufacturer of landscape ornaments and architectural stonework. And architects Julian and Isobel Bannerman have designed an artificial ruin in the form of a gatehouse tower to conceal a client's satellite dishes.

[CTRL] Corruption, No Biggie for the Dick Generation
-Caveat Lector- In "Dick," a film targeting teenage audiences, Nixon has gone from paranoid enemy of the US Constitition, to respected "elder statesman" -- to lovable grumpy old man. Poll: Fewer Know Watergate Details By WILL LESTER .c The Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) - Most Americans think President Nixon's actions 25 years ago in the Watergate scandal were serious enough to merit his resignation, according to a new Associated Press poll that also showed memories of the scandal are fading. The poll, conducted by ICR of Media, Pa., found that more than 60 percent said Nixon made the right decision when he became the only president to quit. But about a quarter of the people, and more than one-in-three Republicans, said the charges stemming from Watergate were not serious enough to merit his resignation. Baby boomers, those between 35 and 54 years old, were most likely to say the charges against Nixon were serious enough to drive him from office. They also were the generation most critical of the 37th president's policies concerning the war in Vietnam. The overall numbers were about the same in a poll taken in the days after Nixon resigned, on Aug. 9, 1974, at the height of a scandal that dominated television news programs and newspaper front pages for months. In 1982, the number saying resignation was the right step reached about 75 percent and has eroded slowly. About half in the latest poll think President Clinton's actions were about as serious or worse, but he survived efforts to impeach him. People's expectations for their leaders have changed since Nixon resigned, said Heather Rawlings, a 22-year-old student and human resources worker from Colorado Springs, Colo. ``Politicians are seen as extremely corrupt today, while in the 1970s they were seen as moderately corrupt,'' she said, noting political corruption is constantly reported in the media and is a frequent topic for comedians. ``People feel like: `They're corrupt, no biggie,''' she said. But while opinions about Nixon have remained relatively stable over the years, the poll found that only four of every 10 people think they know enough about Watergate to tell others about it. Men were nearly twice as likely as women - 52 percent to 28 percent - to say they could recount the basic facts of the case. ``It may have to do with the stubbornness of men,'' said Dan Soulas, vice president of ICR. ``They don't want to admit they're not aware of something as newsworthy as Watergate was. It's purely a factor of their gender.'' The telephone survey of 1,012 adults was conducted July 28 to Aug. 1 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points. Other findings included: People were divided over whether Watergate was a serious matter that revealed corruption in the White House (48 percent) or was ``just politics'' (45 percent). Although only 40 percent of Republicans said it was a serious matter, more than half of GOP voters said Nixon's resignation was warranted. One-third of the people surveyed said the allegations of misconduct against President Clinton over the Monica Lewinsky affair were about as serious as the charges made against Nixon, and 18 percent said the Clinton matter was more serious. Forty-five percent said the Lewinsky case was less serious than Watergate. Three out of four people thought Nixon would be remembered more for Watergate than for his policies as president. The youngest adults, who learned about the scandal in school because they hadn't been born yet or were too young to remember when it happened, were the most likely to choose Watergate as his legacy (80 percent). Donald Chatmon, a teacher from Monroe, N.C., said he thinks Clinton got off easily compared to Nixon. ``I think Nixon and Clinton were in the same boat,'' he said. ``Nixon went ahead and resigned. Clinton should have done the same thing. The only thing that saved Clinton was when people looked at what was going on - the economy, the situation in the world - and that saved him.''

-Caveat Lector- S.Korean Destroyers Anchor in Japan TOKYO (AP) - Two South Korean destroyers today made the first-ever port call in Japan by combat ships from South Korea's navy, Japan's Defense Agency said. The ships - the Kwanggaeto Daewang and the Chungnam - were anchored at Sasebo, 610 miles southwest of Tokyo. Defense Agency spokesman Tatsuhiko Fukui said the goodwill visit by the South Korean ships was scheduled to last until Sunday, when they would return home. The arrival of the destroyers came after the navies of South Korea and Japan held five days of training exercises ending Thursday in the East China Sea. Three Japanese destroyers participated in the drills, the first joint military exercises between their nations' forces. The exercises were conducted amid increasing concerns that North Korea is preparing to test a long-range ballistic missile. The reclusive North chilled nerves in the region by test-firing a missile on Aug. 31, 1998, that flew over Japan and landed in the Pacific Ocean. North Korea has protested the joint Japan-South Korean military maneuver as a move by both countries to launch a war against it. South Korea's Defense Ministry has stressed that the drills, involving 1,200 South Korean and Japanese sailors, were for peaceful purposes. But it shut out media coverage, saying that it did not want to provoke the communist North. Tokyo normalized relations with South Korea in 1965 but it still has no formal ties with North Korea. Despite economic ties, Japan and South Korea have had few military exchanges because of their turbulent history. Japan ruled the Korean Peninsula as a colony from 1910-1945.

-Caveat Lector- "The predominant finding of studies examining the effects of film and TV violence: ``Exposure to media portrayals of violence increases aggressive behavior in children.' New post-Columbine legislation [spearheaded by Republicans] requires Internet service providers to offer filtering technology to block access to 'violent' material. Report: Media Violence Affects Kids By DARLENE SUPERVILLE .c The Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) - Congress is finalizing juvenile justice legislation to address the problem of media violence, but a new Senate report says parents also must share the burden of shielding children from such images. ``The effect of media violence on our children is no longer open to debate,'' said Thursday's report from the Senate Judiciary Committee's Republican staff. The 30-page document concluded that the media dominate children's lives, are ``exceedingly violent'' and that such images lead to real world violence. ``I hope that this report ... will further the discussion about the flood of media violence in this country and what should be done about it,'' said Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, the panel's chairman. Hatch requested the report after the fatal shooting at Colorado's Columbine High School that left 15 people dead in April. He said more than 1,000 studies over the past 40 years that examined the effects of violence on children have not changed the predominant finding. ``Exposure to media portrayals of violence increases aggressive behavior in children,'' he said. ``As one expert put it, arguing against the link between media violence and the violent actions of our youth is 'like arguing against gravity.''' The report highlights provisions in a Senate-passed juvenile justice that address the issue, and makes additional recommendations to Congress. It also includes suggestions for parents and the entertainment industry. The 30-page report recommends that: Congress begin a national media campaign to educate parents and create a national clearinghouse on children and entertainment violence. The television, motion picture, music and video game industries be encouraged to rate their products using a universal system; they now use separate systems. The Federal Trade Commission report twice a year on media violence and the entertainment industry's efforts to reduce it. Federal property, when used in programming for children, be offered at reduced rates. Congress ban advertising for adult programming broadcast at times when children are most likely to be watching television or listening to the radio. The ban also would apply to publications designed for children. The Senate juvenile justice bill would toughen penalties for juvenile offenders while providing states with $1 billion a year to fight juvenile crime and prevent delinquency. A House-Senate committee began Thursday to iron out differences between that bill and a different version passed by the House. The Senate bill also has provisions aimed at limiting youth exposure to violence, including a proposal to grant a limited antitrust exemption to the entertainment industries so they can develop voluntary guidelines. The legislation also calls for a national media campaign against youth violence, would ban use of federal property in violent movies or TV shows and require Internet service providers to offer filtering technology to block access to explicit material.

[CTRL] Did CIA Ghost-Write Oswald Letter ?
-Caveat Lector- Soviets Believed Oswald Letter Fake By DEB RIECHMANN .c The Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) - Officials at the Soviet Embassy in Washington had suspicions from the start about a chatty letter they received from Lee Harvey Oswald shortly before President Kennedy was assassinated. In it, Oswald detailed his visit with a top KGB official in Mexico City six weeks before being arrested for killing Kennedy in Dallas. He pleaded for visas so that he and his wife could return to the Soviet Union. He even told them about his new baby daughter. Privately, embassy officials suspected it was forged, perhaps to lay a phony paper trail to make it look like Oswald was working for the Soviets, according to long-secret Russian documents released by the National Archives on Thursday. ``This letter was clearly a provocation: It gives the impression we had close ties with Oswald and were using him for some purposes of our own,'' Soviet Ambassador Anatoly Dobrynin, Moscow's man in Washington for 24 years, wrote in an internal memo stamped ``Highest Priority.'' Dobrynin thought the letter was a fake because it had a different tone than previous letters the Soviets had received from Oswald, who lived in the communist nation between 1959 and 1962. Also, it had been typed, not handwritten like his earlier ones, Dobrynin noted. The letter was dated Nov. 9, 1963. The embassy received it nine days later, but never replied. Within a week, Kennedy was dead, and so was Oswald - shot down by Dallas nightclub owner Jack Ruby. ``One gets the definite impression that the letter was concocted by those who, judging from everything, are involved in the president's assassination,'' Dobrynin wrote. ``It is possible that Oswald himself wrote the letter as it was dictated to him, in return for some promises, and then, as we know, he was simply bumped off after his usefulness had ended.'' The Dobrynin memo was contained in more than 80 pages of long-secret Soviet documents that Russian President Boris Yeltsin gave to President Clinton in June when the two were in Germany. The documents offer details about what top-level Soviet officials were thinking and talking about when Kennedy was killed Nov. 22, 1963, in Dallas. ``They were convinced that there had been this massive plot to kill Kennedy. What they didn't know was who was a part of the conspiracy,'' said Timothy Naftali, director of the presidential recordings project at the Miller Center of Public Affairs, a think tank and historical research institute at the University of Virginia. ``They thought they had received a false letter. They thought it was all part of an orchestrated affair to make it look like the Soviet Union was behind the gun.'' Following the assassination, the Soviets gave U.S. officials the Oswald letter as well as other information they had gathered during his stay in the Soviet Union. Oswald arrived there in October 1959 as a tourist and immediately asked to remain. Because no decision was made on his request before his five-day tourist visa expired, Oswald cut his arm in an apparent suicide attempt, the documents said. He was hospitalized for a week. According to the documents, his attending physician said that if Oswald's ``request for permission to remain in the USSR were turned down again, he might repeat his suicide attempt.'' The documents indicate the Soviets denied him citizenship but let him stay a year as a foreign national because of his persistent requests. He arrived in Minsk in January 1960 - the same month Kennedy announced he was running for president. He worked at a radio factory and married a Soviet woman. In 1962, Oswald returned with his wife and their baby to the United States. The following year, just days before Kennedy was assassinated, the Soviet Embassy in Washington received the letter that Oswald allegedly typed in Dallas on Nov. 9, 1963. ``The Russians get this letter from Oswald that makes him look like he's affiliated with them in some way, but he's not affiliated with the Russian government,'' said David Lifton, a Los Angeles-based researcher who is writing a book on Oswald. ``He's a phony Red. Is he a mentally ill person, or is he being choreographed by a handler?'' DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

The positions as a scoutmaster are volunteer positions...2. most of the troops elect the individual to that position so "being fired" from that position is not even an issue. 3. We are talking about small kids very impressionable and easily swayed. 4. The Boy Scouts is a "Private" organization and should be allowed to have a say in who joins and who should not. 5. Boys can be "Kicked out" from the Boy Scouts due to misbehaving and not abiding by the rules. It's bad enough that the kids today are influenced by the filth and immoral activities of others in the media, movies, games etc. These types of organizations are still around because parents want to be able to send their kids somewhere for social events that they don't have to worry about whether someone is corrupting them and teaching them things that is not the norm and harmful. This "Scoutmaster" doesn't care about the Kids, he just wants the publicity to once again make us aware that the "Gays" can and have infiltrated our lives. People would not be so upset about these issues if the "Gays" did not PUSH and IMPOSE their life styles onto others. 1. You cannot fire someone because they are Gay, but someone can be fired because he or she doesn't like Gays. 2. In you larger Colleges, you are forced to take courses in order to graduate about Gay Living, etc and you can be expelled if you don't like a Gay person touching or coming on to you and you say something about it. 3. Gays have forced our grade school children to believe the having 2 daddys is normal? And you wonder why our kids are growing up confused and frustrated. 4. It's the Gay life style that has expanded the AIDS disease and they refuse to stop contaminating others even thou they know the possiblities of catching this disease IS THIS A NEW LICENSE TO KILL? Why aren't these people being put up on MURDER CHARGES Support the Boy Scouts for their integrity and moral values. It's one of the few organizations that still exist that really care about your kids.I for one would not allow my child to participate in their organization if I thought he was being Exposed to the Gay Life Style and lack of Morals. It's confusing enough to be a kid today, why should we allow the Gays to continue to Bombard and Corrupt our kids? Whether you have Religious beliefs or not. this kind of Life Style is not Healthy and totally disrupts the family life. MAYBE THAT IS JUST WHAT THEY WANT TO HAPPEN?

[CTRL] US Has Secret Diana Files?????
-Caveat Lector- PAPER SAYS US HAS SECRET DIANA FILES The Times of India Saturday, August 7, 1999 London - The US government holds secret files on Britain's late Princess Diana and will not release them because of threats to US national security, the Guardian newspaper reported Friday. The US National Security Agency had not set out to investigate Princess Diana, but had acquired information about her in the course of its intelligence gathering, the report said. ``The reports contain only references to Princess Diana acquired incidentally from intelligence gathering,'' the Agency said in a statement published by the Guardian. ``It is neither NSA policy or practice to target British subjects in conducting our foreign intelligence mission. However, other countries could communicate about these subjects therefore, this agency could acquire intelligence concerning British subjects,'' the statement said. The reports are under both top secret and secret categories and cannot be released because of ``exceptionally grave damage to the national security,'' the Agency said. Mohamed Al Fayed, whose son Dodi also died in the 1997 Paris car crash that killed Diana, has long said he believed there were such documents. Al Fayed has gone to court in the US to try to force US agencies to release them. (Reuters) DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Columbia, The Germ of the Covert
-Caveat Lector- Unknown war leaves victims in anonymity August 5, 1999 BY ROBERT NOVAK SUN-TIMES COLUMNIST At 1:30 a.m. Tuesday, the remains of 29-year-old Capt. Jennifer J. Odom, U.S. Army, arrived at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware. The television cameras, usually present at such events, were nowhere to be seen. Indeed, the news media were totally absent, and the event went unrecorded. Nor was President Clinton there to feel her family's pain. Odom, along with her co-pilot and three other crew members, died July 23 when the DeHavilland RC7 reconnaissance plane she was piloting crashed into a mountain in southern Colombia. The Pentagon says there is "no evidence" that narco-guerrillas shot down the plane, but adds that the investigation is continuing. In any event, the five-member crew constituted the first U.S. military personnel to be killed in the war against the drug-financed, leftist insurrection subverting Colombia. Jennifer Odom is an unsung heroine in an unknown war. The non-stop propaganda machinery during 78 days of bombing Yugoslavia was mute about the death of Odom, the first American woman pilot killed in action. The Clinton administration says as little as possible about Colombia. It never wanted to get involved there, but has been dragged into a conflict it deplores, and still presses for a negotiated settlement with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC. If Kosovo was a liberal's war, Colombia certainly is not. Thus, the nation and even most of Congress were unaware that the United States dispatches aircraft on hazardous duty over FARC-occupied Colombia. U.S. planes have been on such missions for years, but what is new is the DeHavilland RC7s, carrying signal intelligence equipment to eavesdrop on the guerrillas' highly sophisticated communications system. "This is a very black [secret] operation," said one military source. A Pentagon spokesman said that the Odom plane's principal mission was "imagery" (taking pictures), but added that signal intelligence equipment was on board and might have been used. Independent military experts, however, contend that less technologically advanced aircraft--or, indeed, satellites--could handle imagery. The RC7 is configured to tap enemy communications (as it did in helping Peru's government in 1997, when terrorists seized the Japanese embassy in Lima). But the lid has been placed on Odom's outfit, the 204th Military Intelligence Battalion in Fort Bliss, Texas, to bar conversations with the press. Similarly, military sources questioned the likelihood that Odom's death was accidental. The RC7's navigation equipment is so sophisticated that it is hard to imagine an experienced pilot crashing into a mountain without some provocation by enemy forces below. Such questions went unasked amid the news blackout of the disaster. The wreckage was spotted July 25, but the names of the crew were not officially disclosed until Monday (long after next of kin had been notified). Pentagon sources speculated that the high command did not want a female pilot's death in Colombia to interfere with the celebration of Lt. Col. Eileen Collins' successful command of the Space Shuttle Columbia. It surely did not. At this writing, only Newsweek, among the mass media, has published a news report on the crash. Thus did the first casualties of Colombia's war go unmentioned in much of the country. In addition to Odom, they include her co-pilot, Capt. Jose A. Santiago, as well as Chief Warrant Officer Thomas G. Moore, Specialist T. Bruce Cluff and Specialist Ray E. Krueger. Typically, when Republican Rep. Constance Morella took the House floor Tuesday morning to praise astronaut Collins, there was no mention of her fellow Marylander whose remains had arrived at Dover only hours before. Republican Rep. Roscoe Bartlett, whose district contains Odom's hometown of Brunswick, Md., reported that her family was frustrated by inability to get calls immediately returned by the Defense Department, while the military searched for John F. Kennedy Jr. Senior military officials later telephoned Odom's mother. But President Clinton, usually adept in commiserating with tragedy, said nothing. Although Attorney General Janet Reno led a government delegation to honor the slain pilot at Dover, nobody was there to represent the White House. The omission was hardly accidental. If Jennifer Odom's death continues to be ignored, there can be no debate about how well this war is being fought, and little attention may be paid to Friday's hearing on Colombia by a House investigating subcommittee headed by Rep. John Mica of Florida. Robert Novak appears on the CNN programs "Capital Gang" at 6 p.m. Saturday and "Evans, Novak, Hunt and Shields" at 4:30 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. Sunday.

Read it, analyze it, and react accordingly in a manner you feel is most judicious. The few minutes is well worth your time. Jim Welch The Flag of Concern is Raised by DOUG FIEDOR [EMAIL PROTECTED] Heads Up There are two field grade and two company grade officers from another country who read this newsletter regularly. That is because we are friends. We met by accident a few years ago while they were acting as tourists for a few days before an important work related business meeting. And, because I wanted to brush up on their language, and they English, we have spent a few hours together over the past few years. On their last trip, there was some conversation on the topics reported here that interested them. The UN and martial law were on the front burner. Two of the men had worked with/for the UN for a while and freely related that the UN greatly fears an armed American populace. As part of one contingency plan, they know it would be nearly impossible for foreign UN forces to function in this country while so many of us are armed. The UN's desire, therefore, is that we be disarmed. No great surprise there. What they related on martial law was a real surprise, though. According to the most senior of the four, there are not enough U.S. troops to enforce martial law in this country unless the people passively allow it. Maybe so. The Army has 468,000, the Marines but 170,000 and there are 75,000+ armed federal regulators and 600,000 local police officers in the country. That's about one armed person for every 190 citizens. The gentleman was correct. After checking with an American Army officer of the same relative rank, we find that's not even enough to hold California if the people do not cooperate. In fact, because of the mountains, that is not enough to take over Eastern Kentucky, either. That is, short of air raids and the use of big guns, it is not. When asked where they will be at the stroke of midnight for the new year, the reply was a unanimous and unequivocal, "Home!" Because, as freely related to me, they expect many more problems there than we are expected to have here. And, so it appears, do many leaders in military units from countries around the world. When I mentioned that many Americans fear their guns will be confiscated, I was laughed at. The reply was something like: "One at a time. Yes. All together, at once, never." Which makes complete sense, if one thinks about it. The government is already actively working on that "one at a time" part. So, I asked straight out: "Do you think we are to have martial law?" After a bit of discussion, the answer was "probably yes," in some form. Their reasoning, however, did not deviate at all from many things we, and others, have been reporting. That is, committees from both the House and Senate have already called for martial law and questioned the Pentagon on it's readiness. All military leaves are canceled. So too are the vacations of any and all armed federal officers. The National Guard and Reserves will be on alert. And, all police departments will be at full manpower. Clearly, then, someone expects to have massive force available for something. Else, they would not be putting all those guns at the ready. But, why? Certainly, some of us could have a Y2K problem of some sort. But, 99% of us will stay home to take care of family. That being true, there will not be much policing to be done. Then other news came in. That armed encampment known as FBI headquarters closed its doors to visitors. A few days later, so did the Pentagon. It seems strange, at least on this end, that the people with all the guns, those best able to defend themselves in case of trouble, are hunkered down against the American public. Is there something going on here that we should know about, or is this just the first step in whipping their people into an "us" against "them" mentality? We think that the American people have a right to know exactly what is happening. Is the supposed threat of domestic or foreign origin? What is the threat to our

-Caveat Lector- Hi, It is not that difficult to put someone into an alpha or theta state (hypnosis) without their knowing it. The URL below goes into great detail on this can occur. A ritually abused person can also be "hypnotized" by force. Sincerely, Neil Brick PS There will be a conference for ritual abuse and MC survivors next weekend. For info: http://members.aol.com/smartnews/SMART-1999-Conference.htm Please note: all accusations are alleged http://www.magnet.ch/serendipity/sutphen/brainwsh.html Excerpts from: The Battle for Your Mind by Dick Sutphen Persuasion and Brainwashing Techniques Being Used On The Public Today Although I've been interviewed about the subject on many local and regional radio and TV talk shows, large-scale mass communication appears to be blocked, since it could result in suspicion or investigation of the very media presenting it or the sponsors that support the media. Some government agencies do not want this information generally known. Nor do the Born-Again Christian movement, cults, and many human-potential trainings. So, to begin, I want to state the most basic of all facts about brainwashing: In the entire history of man, no one has ever been brainwashed and realized, or believed, that he had been brainwashed. Those who have been brainwashed will usually passionately defend their manipulators, claiming they have simply been "shown the light" ...or have been transformed in miraculous ways. Conversion is a "nice" word for brainwashing...and any study of brainwashing has to begin with a study of Christian revivalism in eighteenth century America. Apparently, Jonathan Edwards accidentally discovered the techniques during a religious crusade in 1735 in Northampton, Massachusetts. By inducing guilt and acute apprehension and by increasing the tension, the "sinners" attending his revival meetings would break down and completely submit. Technically, what Edwards was doing was creating conditions that wipe the brain slate clean so that the mind accepts new programming. The problem was that the new input was negative. He would tell them, "You're a sinner! You're destined for hell!" Let me point out here that I don't think most revivalist preachers realize or know they are using brainwashing techniques. Edwards simply stumbled upon a technique that really worked, and others copied it and have continued to copy it for over two hundred years. And the more sophisticated our knowledge and technology become, the more effective the conversion. I feel strongly that this is one of the major reasons for the increasing rise in Christian fundamentalism, especially the televised variety, while most of the orthodox religions are declining. If you'd like to see a revivalist preacher at work, there are probably several in your city. Go to the church or tent early and sit in the rear, about three-quarters of the way back. Most likely repetitive music will be played while the people come in for the service. A repetitive beat, ideally ranging from 45 to 72 beats per minute (a rhythm close to the beat of the human heart), is very hypnotic and can generate an eyes-open altered state of consciousness in a very high percentage of people. And, once you are in an alpha state, you are at least 25 times as suggestible as you would be in full beta consciousness. The music is probably the same for every service, or incorporates the same beat, and many of the people will go into an altered state almost immediately upon entering the sanctuary. Subconsciously, they recall their state of mind from previous services and respond according to the post-hypnotic programming. Watch the people waiting for the service to begin. Many will exhibit external signs of trance--body relaxation and slightly dilated eyes. Often, they begin swaying back and forth with their hands in the air while sitting in their chairs. Next, the assistant pastor will probably come out. He usually speaks with a pretty good "voice roll." Cults and human-potential organizations are always looking for new converts. To attain them, they must also create a brain-phase. And they often need to do it within a short space of time--a weekend, or maybe even a day. The following are the six primary techniques used to generate the conversion. Isolation, Intimidation, Deprivation and Indoctrination The meeting or training takes place in an area where participants are cut off from the outside world. This may be any place: a private home, a remote or rural setting, or even a hotel ballroom where the participants are allowed only limited bathroom usage. In human-potential trainings, the controllers will give a lengthy talk about the importance of "keeping agreements" in life. The participants are told that if they don't keep agreements, their life will never work. It's a good idea to keep agreements, but the controllers are subverting a positive human value for selfish purposes. The participants vow to themselves and their trainer that

In the October 1983 (page 30)and January-February 1986 (page 9) of WHO's WORLD HEALTH magazine, Mr.Ozorio wrote about my supposed campaign to ban the portrayal of smoking in comic books, and, in each case, sent me a check from a UN bank account in Zurich for my providing research for the articles. The articles followed accounts of my work in CONGRESSIONAL RECORD - SENATE, Vol. 128, No. 131. September 28, 1982, page S12435,and preceded numerous legislative and gubernatorial documents in myhonor, including a Proclamation designating January 1990 as T. CASEYBRENNAN MONTH in the State of Arkansas, signed by then ArkansasGovernor, Bill Clinton. Unfortunately, Peter Ozorio was aware thatthroughout this supposed anti-smoking campaign, I was penniless, living in homeless shelters and eating at free meals, and was in desperate need of employment. Add to that the fact that my family had been tortured and killed, I had suffered crippling injuries as a result of an attack (see the newspaper article at the T. CASEY BRENNAN ARCHIVE), and was being refused any kind of welfare or medical treatment, and you have a pretty good idea of how much Peter Ozorio knew about a matter directly related to the Kennedy assassination.

[CTRL] A Short History of Reported CIA Fronts
-Caveat Lector- Home Page Sherman H. Skolnick Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] A Short History of Reported CIA Fronts By Sherman H. Skolnick I used to teach a course on how to investigate and research Foundation Tax Returns, originally called IRS form 990-A, and then form 990-AR, the only tax return, by the way, that is available as a public document. Donors Forum, with office/libraries in many big cities, have on hand for copying, copies of Foundation Tax Returns in that district of the office, sometimes other districts, of their public tax returns as a tax-exempt entity. In a scandal that was started by Bobby Kennedy in the Spring, of 1967, various foundations around the U.S. were identified as part of a complicated three-level device for disguising CIA funding of domestic operations: [1] conduits [2] pass-throughs and [3] fronts [a technical term]. A summary of the scandal can be seen in the numerous pages of the New York Times "Index" for 1967, a summary of stories in that newspaper, under the heading, Central Intelligence Agency. Before they could accomplish a cover up, I and my associates quickly looked up the 990-A tax returns of the CIA foundations on the three technical levels mentioned. We developed expertise in showing over and above the mass media published reports, where the money came from and was distributed. Among our disclosures, which did not endear us to fellow peaceniks who heckled me as a trouble-maker: 1. Most liberal groups with an office and some funds for a regular staff, got their funding through the three levels, from CIA, including the American Civil Liberties Union, which went out of business in 1967 and was completely taken over by espionage groups, since then called the Roger Baldwin Foundation of ACLU, and such. If you carefully examine the board of overseers of what amateurs continue wrongly call the "American Civil Liberties Union", you will see the espionage types that run the operations throughout the U.S. They are an early-warning system, for example, of flare-ups against the government in the ghettos of big cities. 2. The Nation Magazine, which according to some, does some good, fails and neglects to mention DOMESTIC operations of CIA. A simple answer: their funding comes from, among others, a CIA-front, called the J.M. Kaplan Fund of New York, and a group of CIA foundations grouped under the umbrella of the CIA-funded Roger Baldwin Foundation of ACLU and similar names. Moreover, the Nation Magazine published commentaries making vile statements against Oliver Stone, that JFK was, in fact, the Nation says, killed by a lone assassin and that the movie "JFK" is a phantasy and a "fraud". Thus whitewashing the Dallas murder for what some claim was a CIA-instigated plot against JFK. 3. The Nation Magazine did finally admit several years ago that what they erroneously persist in calling the "AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION" [which actually was taken over by the CIA-foundations in 1967] was very close to FBI dictator/boss J. Edgar Hoover by way of investigating and combatting so-called "Reds" in America. THIS NEXT ITEM IS SURELY GOING TO OUTRAGE SOME WHO ARE NAIVE AND POORLY INFORMED: 4. Pacifica Radio, which like the Nation Magazine, has done SOME good, has been reportedly a CIA-Foundation operation, New York, Houston, and the Bay area, California. During the anti-war period, some rednecks, believing that Pacifica-Houston, was a genuine "liberal" group, purportedly bombed the station there. A simple, though certainly not complete answer, is that the stations were used as provocateur operations, to lure out more independent-minded political activists who are and were naive. For example, however, Pacifica, Berkeley, went almost into orbit when Dennis Bernstein of that station, without realizing I am an independent, was unable to stop me from blurting out condemnation of the oil industry and George Bush. Some of his confidants informed me he almost got run over by the station management for letting a "loud mouth" like me on the air. By the way, I call National Public Radio, NPR, as NATIONAL PETROLEUM RADIO, since they try to keep oil scandals OFF the air. A simple, though certainly not complete answer: for some years Sharon Percy ROCKEFELLER, WIFE OF U.S. Senator John D. Rockefeller 4th, headed NPR. [She now heads a PBS operation in D.C. instrumental in the Jim Lehrer News Hour on so-called Public TV.] No one in NPR, PBS, or for that matter, in the commercial oil-soaked mass media, would dare mention that the family of Sharon Percy Rockefeller is reportedly in business withthe CIA-created purported "terrorist" Osama bin Laden. Their joint funds are reportedly kept in the Harris Bank in Chicago, under many concealed accounts. Harris Bank is a unit of the whiskey-soaked Bronfman family, owners jointly with U.S. Senator Peter Fitzgerald of Ill., [R., Ill.] of the Bank of Montreal [Canada]. Bill Clinton said he would like to "freeze" bin Laden's huge funds but cannot "find" them.
[CTRL] Great Secrets Of The 20th Century
-Caveat Lector- http://www.skolnicksreport.com/great_secrets.html Sherman H. Skolnick Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Great Secrets Of The 20th Century - Part One By Sherman H. Skolnick [EMAIL PROTECTED] 7-8-99 1912 - The British ship TITANIC sunk moreso from an internal explosion in the coal bunker than from hitting an iceberg. Those who produced the most recent version of the movie "Titanic", viewed, in a special submarine, the remains of the ship on the bottom of the Atlantic, off of Newfoundland. They reportedly noticed the side of the ship showed there had been a massive internal explosion in the vicinity of the coal bunker.Was it sabotage? Knowledgeable sources contend the ship, on its maiden voyage, had been the target of blackmail and espionage intrigue implicating England and Germany who two years later went to war against each other. With the ship not having sufficient life-boats to save costs, were the passengers coldheartedly sacrificed as part of a bloody scheme to profit war-mongering large corporate interests while from 1914 to 1918, millions of ordinary people killed each other? The movie producers, in a re-make of a prior movie on the Titanic sinking, spent some 200 million dollars in the production. They were not about to risk that by raising the question of the internal explosion requiring a revision of history books. [Sidenote: my late father was on the ship behind the Titanic.] In 1915, the ship "Lusitania" was likewise the subject of a bloody scheme. Supposedly just a passenger ship, yet the British withdrew protection from the ship in wartime as it approached off of England. Knowing the truth that the Lusitania was a secret munitions carrier, a German U-boat sank the ship with great loss of life including U.S. citizens. The British sacrificed the passengers as part of a scheme to draw the U.S. into World War One to aid Great Britain. Remember: the British and French Rothschilds, and the Rockefellers, created the conspiratorial Federal Reserve just prior to the war, to use American assets to finance both sides of Europe's war. 1918 - History books declare that Russian Czar Nicholas 2nd and his family, following the Russian Revolution, were assassinated by the Bolsheviks, July, 1918,in a basement of a house in Ekaterinburg, Siberia. By the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, arranged by Lenin, in March, 1918, the Russians ended their war with Germany enabling the Germans to devote their efforts to the Western fron against U.S., France, and Great Britain. [Lenin's elder brother was among those who assassinated Nicholas's grandfather, 1881, Emperor Alexander 2nd.] The Treaty had a secret codicil, arranged by the Rockefellers and the Rothschilds who financed Lenin, providing for the safe passage of the Czar and his family in exile, the Czar having abdicated the throne on behalf of himself and his young son, heir to the throne, Alexei, in the spring of 1917 - The Rockefeller banks, Chicago and New York, had the PRIVATE fortune on deposit of the Romanov family, separate from Nicholas's government position as Czar of all the Russias. This consisted of 400 million dollars in gold, at the then price of 20 dollars per ounce. Declaring the Czar and his family falsely dead enabled the Rockefeller bankers to spread out their empire using the fraudulent bankers' use of fractional reserves. Through secret accounts, the Rockefellers for decades thereafter rolled over these funds, to their benefit, in violation of state escheat laws providing that bank accounts revert to the State government if not claimed after, in most states, seven years. Of course, corrupt bank regulators in Illinois and New York have condoned this by the Rockefellers' First National Bank of Chicago and their Chase Bank of New York. By 1970, documents were being released by the British, after more than 50 years of suppression, showing the British monarchy, cousins of the Czar, secretly with U.S.aid rescued the Czar and his family. So to perpetuate the big lie of royal murder, the Rockefellers financed an elaborate movie "Nicholas and Alexandra" which in its final scenes shows the alleged assassination by the Bolsheviks of the Czar and his family in Siberia. In only one edition, the pro-British monarchy Chicago Tribune had a story headlined "U.S. Aided Rescue of Czar Nichola, British hint" [Chicago Tribune, 12/14/70.) Excerpts: "British government documents which recently were placed in the public record office in London indicate that President Woodrow Wilson backed a secret mission to Russia which may have resulted in the rescue of Czar Nicholas and his family in 1918." and "A retired U.S. official, who has aided the investigations and asked to remain anonymous, said continued secrecy on the part of the British and American governments 'frustrates or makes liars out of all those who are ridiculed for stating the assassination never took place.'

Top secret files on Princess Diana and her closest associates are held by the United States national security agency - and that is official. The agency has told the Guardian that it is holding reports from foreign intelligence - thought to include MI5 and MI6 - under both top secret and secret categories. It revealed their existence after the Guardian filed a request under the US freedom of information act. The reports cannot be released because of "exceptionally grave damage to the national security". The documents on the dead princess seem to have arisen because of the company she kept rather than through any attempt to target her, and the agency goes out of its way to say that it did not compile any of the spy reports itself. "The reports contain only references to Princess Diana acquired incidentally from intelligence gathering. It is neither NSA policy or practice to target British subjects in conducting our foreign intelligence mission. However, other countries could communicate about these subjects; therefore, this agency could acquire intelligence concerning British subjects," an agency statement said. The agency rejected the Guardian's request to release the files on two grounds. As well as warning that "the documents are classified because their disclosure could reasonably be expected to cause exceptionally grave damage to the national security," the agency also says it needs to protect its sources. The existence of documents on Diana, Princess of Wales has always been claimed by the owner of Harrods, Mohamed Al Fayed, whose son, Dodi, died with the princess in a car crash in Paris in 1997. He believes reports which claim that up to 1,056 page references to Diana exist in some 39 documents held by the NSA. Mr Fayed has started a welter of court actions in Washington and Baltimore in an attempt to force the NSA, the defence intelligence agency, and the CIA to release documents which he believes could throw light on the death of the princess and his son. He is also suing a group which demanded money for fabricated documents claiming that the intelligence services were involved in a plot to assassinate the princess and her boyfriend that night. It is not known whether these documents were held by the NSA, nor whether claims published last year that the agency was snooping on her love life were correct. Under Jack Straw's freedom of information bill Britain's security services would not be able to confirm or deny that they were holding documents on Princess Diana. The services are covered by a blanket ban exempting them from disclosing even documents' existence.

[CTRL] Mena Drug Drop Deaths (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 5 Aug 1999 Subj: Mena Drug Drop Deaths LETTER Mena Drug Drop Deaths PLEASE read the following letter forwarded to me. It is about the two boys who saw the drug drop in Mena, Arkansas and were later found dead. The first story was that they committed suicide on the train tracks, but after their families protested, an autopsy showed bullet holes. Any friend of Marlon Maddoux' is a friend of mine. Marlon and Matriciana are both upstanding men. Mr. Matriciana has made wonderful movies and I'm sure he took this movie project under much prayer before deciding to do it. If I remember correctly, one of these boys was only 11. If you know anyone in Little Rock or you can go there, please go to the trial. Let me know if you're going, please. Thank you, Joetta Deutsch FWD: This is Laura Nichols. I have attended the opening day of the trial where the two deputy sheriffs are sueing Mr. Pat Matriciana, owner of Jeremiah Films, Inc. for 16 million dollars. They accuse him of defamation of character. They have to prove "reckless disregard for the truth." The video including the names of the two deputy sheriff's is called OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE. The exact statement in question goes something like this. "Eyewitnesses have been implicated in the deaths of the two boys these people ." Then the mens names are listed. The trial opened with the selection of jurors. After about one hour of questioning, 13 people were chosen. Then we broke for lunch. This was Monday, Aug. 2nd. At 1 o'clock the opening statements began with the sheriff's side first. Then Mr. John Hall representing Mr. Matriciana gave his statement. The first witness to be called was Mr. Matriciana. After intensive questioning, the jury was then shown the video in length. They were extremely moved by the video. The only people in attendance for Mr. Matriciana were myself, my friend Penny, her son and my daughter. Then Mr. Matriciana had his son, a friend who had flown in from out of town, Mrs. Linda Ives. mother of Kevin Ives, one of the slain teenagers, his legal counsel and that was all. Since this information was put out last week by Marlin Maddoux, there should have been a full gallery. But there were a total of 11 people. I have contacted local newspaper, radio and have faxed out press releases. I have contacted the pro-family groups in Arkansas. I have not heard by from Eagle Forum. I did hear form Jerry Cox at the Family Council. He refused to attend. He said he would not support someone he did not know and he questioned the validity of the video (which he had never seen) and he had former past experience with people who made videos of this nature and that usually they were 2/3 right and the rest was wrong. Now I know that we can be led astray and that there are many people who go overboard with the conspiracy theory. I subscribe to that theory but I do not go overboard. I have utmost respect for the truth, proper research and I do not take most things for face value. When I showed up for the trial, I did not know Mr. Matriciana. I only knew what I had heard on Marlin Maddoux. I heard them say that Mr. and Mrs. Maddoux are good personal friends to Mr. Matricana. I went because I was burdened to go, I wanted to pray, I was curious, and I just knew that I was supposed to go. Yes, I could have stayed home and prayed from there, but you can never ever replace real human warm bodies when it comes to encouraging and being active about something. Having met him for the first time Monday, I must tell you how broken-hearted that I am. This man is an ordained Baptist Minister who, desiring to get the truth out about the murders, agreed to produce the film. Jean Duffy, a former district prosecuting attorney in Saline County, along with Linda Ives, had done the research, the brought it to Mr. Pat Matriciana, and he agreed to produce it. I wish that I could film what is taking place in that courtroom, because truly it is the court case of the century. So many facts are coming forth. You may not understand this, but this man's life is at stake. The media in Little Rock is doing a good job of keeping this hushed. Two or three stations showed up, and the Ar Dem Gazette. WE need this information to get out. We need good attendance at this trial. There is seating for 170 people, and only 11 people for Mr. Matricana. Now, you may not know about this case. You may doubt the truth of it. But on Marlin Maddoux today Mr. John Hall (present at the trial) told that eyewitnesses claim that they saw these particular deputy sheriffs pick up the two boys at a phone booth. What they believe happened is that the boys saw the drug drop, they ran away and managed to get to the phone booth, were picked up by the two sheriffs, taken somewhere, where they were
[CTRL] The Flag of Concern is Raised (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Fri, 6 Aug 1999 Subj: The Flag of Concern is Raised The Flag of Concern is Raised by DOUG FIEDOR [EMAIL PROTECTED] Heads Up There are two field grade and two company grade officers from another country who read this newsletter regularly. That is because we are friends. We met by accident a few years ago while they were acting as tourists for a few days before an important work related business meeting. And, because I wanted to brush up on their language, and they English, we have spent a few hours together over the past few years. On their last trip, there was some conversation on the topics reported here that interested them. The UN and martial law were on the front burner. Two of the men had worked with/for the UN for a while and freely related that the UN greatly fears an armed American populace. As part of one contingency plan, they know it would be nearly impossible for foreign UN forces to function in this country while so many of us are armed. The UN's desire, therefore, is that we be disarmed. No great surprise there. What they related on martial law was a real surprise, though. According to the most senior of the four, there are not enough U.S. troops to enforce martial law in this country unless the people passively allow it. Maybe so. The Army has 468,000, the Marines but 170,000 and there are 75,000+ armed federal regulators and 600,000 local police officers in the country. That's about one armed person for every 190 citizens. The gentleman was correct. After checking with an American Army officer of the same relative rank, we find that's not even enough to hold California if the people do not cooperate. In fact, because of the mountains, that is not enough to take over Eastern Kentucky, either. That is, short of air raids and the use of big guns, it is not. When asked where they will be at the stroke of midnight for the new year, the reply was a unanimous and unequivocal, "Home!" Because, as freely related to me, they expect many more problems there than we are expected to have here. And, so it appears, do many leaders in military units from countries around the world. When I mentioned that many Americans fear their guns will be confiscated, I was laughed at. The reply was something like: "One at a time. Yes. All together, at once, never." Which makes complete sense, if one thinks about it. The government is already actively working on that "one at a time" part. So, I asked straight out: "Do you think we are to have martial law?" After a bit of discussion, the answer was "probably yes," in some form. Their reasoning, however, did not deviate at all from many things we, and others, have been reporting. That is, committees from both the House and Senate have already called for martial law and questioned the Pentagon on it's readiness. All military leaves are canceled. So too are the vacations of any and all armed federal officers. The National Guard and Reserves will be on alert. And, all police departments will be at full manpower. Clearly, then, someone expects to have massive force available for something. Else, they would not be putting all those guns at the ready. But, why? Certainly, some of us could have a Y2K problem of some sort. But, 99% of us will stay home to take care of family. That being true, there will not be much policing to be done. Then other news came in. That armed encampment known as FBI headquarters closed its doors to visitors. A few days later, so did the Pentagon. It seems strange, at least on this end, that the people with all the guns, those best able to defend themselves in case of trouble, are hunkered down against the American public. Is there something going on here that we should know about, or is this just the first step in whipping their people into an "us" against "them" mentality? We think that the American people have a right to know exactly what is happening. Is the supposed threat of domestic or foreign origin? What is the threat to our family, neighborhood, city? But, we serf-citizens will never be told. So, we must raise the flag of concern. And concern, for anyone who has ever worked with me, of course means preparation. Because, ultimately, we are the ones most responsible for protection of home, family and neighborhood. Therefore, my friends, it is time to get both body and skills up to par. Whatever the threat may be, we are the initial home defense. - Previous Editions at: http://www.uhuh.com/headsup.htm and http://mmc.cns.net/headsup.html - Enjoy a 90 day free trial subscription to the E-mail edition of The Vigo Examiner.

[CTRL] Forfeiture as Free Enterprise (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 5 Aug 1999 Subj: Forfeiture as Enterprise Forfeiture as Enterprise by KAY LEE [EMAIL PROTECTED] I want to introduce you to Nancy Wall, whose entire family has been hit hard by the drug war. Like millions of American citizens, she has been abused by bad laws and their enforcers. This lady, Nancy Wall, is one of the best/worst examples I know of abuse of forfeiture laws. Her husband and son were forced to plea bargain with no drugs in evidence. They are serving 12 years each (I think they are in their seventh year) on marijuana charges because the 'law' threatened to put mom in jail for 20 years. While the 15 or 20 law officers from the DEA on down were ransacking their home at 6:00 AM, as usual on the word of a friend turned snitch, they were dropping Nancy's jewelry in their pocket. A plaque from her home still hangs in the local DEA agent's office. Even after the bust they made her deliver a television that was not in her house at the time of the raid to the DEA office downtown, to go with the VCR they took from her home. They stole her house and put it up for sale. Her sister- in-law bought it back for her, and that made the DEA so mad they sent the IRS in. The IRS now has a $45,000 lien on her home for 'unreported drug money.' Every once in awhile, they still call her down to shake her upside down for spare change. During the arrest, the cops and agents pillaged and plundered, screamed, threw Mr. and Mrs. Wall around and pointed guns in their faces. Believe me, the arrest of non violent people seems to be a training ground for bullies, because the violence of the law is uncalled for. They put a monitor on her ankle for six months, forced her to serve five years probation, and she wouldn't dream of doing any drug her doctor doesn't give her. They ripped off her bank account containing severance pay from NASA, where she had worked for 25-30 years. She had proof that the money was not drug money, but they didn't care. They had $ signs in their eyes. The Walls are in their 60s, their son in his 40s. None have ever crossed paths with the law before. Nancy, like I say, had worked many years for NASA. Her husband, Jim, retired from the military after a long and distinguished career, and her son, Jeff, was middle class America. Nancy and Jim have been married for 46 years and she's having a hard time holding on. She put off extensive hip surgery for as long as she could, hoping to wait till her family was home to help her. Last fall she finally was forced to have the surgery alone. The day after they put the electronic monitor on her, she went to NASA and the people she worked with were lined up to hug her, some crying. The Walls were valuable assets to friends, neighbors and co-workers. They were paying their way, helping others, pursuing life, and now the whole family is just a statistic. All over America, people are loosing respect for those who make the laws, as well as those who enforce them. The excuse, "We're just doing our job" is an outright lie. Too many of them are enjoying their jobs, relishing their jobs, and making profits off the perversion of their jobs. Little silver-haired Nancy, every time a cop passes, whispers angrily, "I just hate those bastards." Can you blame her?

[CTRL] Reining in the Regulators (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 4 Aug 1999 Subj: Reining in the Regulators Reining in the Regulators by DOUG FIEDOR [EMAIL PROTECTED] Heads Up House Republicans finally started asking a few questions about the regulatory bureaucracy. We do not think they asked the correct questions on this round. Nevertheless, the information they demand will be interesting. For over 50 years, Congress has allowed the vast federal regulatory bureaucracy to do darn near as it wished. Congress would pass an open ended law stating some type of goal, and a bunch of desk-bound regulators (with the help of their Non Government Organization friends and interested big industry lobbyists) would promulgate a few hundred rules and regulations impacting on the unsuspecting American people with the full force of law. That being done, the federal regulation bureaucracy decided they needed their own special armed police force. Next, they wanted their own special court system, a court system in which they can hire and fire their own judges. Soon, most regulatory agencies were all three branches of government rolled into one. Then, they took their cue from the IRS's tried and proven tactics and stated that violations of their edicts would be a civil crime so that the Bill of Rights would not apply and a citizen would be guilty in one of their little kangaroo courts until proven innocent. The Democratic run Congress loved this arrangement. The people were properly controlled, and the Congress Critter could stand back and tell any constituent falling into the clutches of that unconstitutional system: "It ain't my fault, I'm on your side against this out of control bureaucracy." It is Congress' fault, though. Under orders of the socialist Roosevelt administration, Congress created the mess. Then, every year thereafter, they expanded on it. Now, Republicans in Congress are starting to look at the federal regulatory bureaucracy a little. And they realize what a real mess they have on their hands. There is little or nothing about the federal regulatory bureaucracy that even comes close to being authorized by powers given to the federal government by the Constitution. And now, being the majority in both houses, the problem is the Republicans' responsibility. Here's the problem: Most Republicans (not the old ones, they are lost causes) know that, like the IRS, the whole of the regulatory system makes a total mockery of that "rule of law" we call our Constitution. Regulatory agencies are, in fact, executive, legislative and judicial branches rolled into one bureaucracy. They are much closer to the communist politburo form of government than anything our Founding Fathers ever envisioned. But, that has become our system and no one knows how to change it back. Because, to abolish the regulatory system would mean a gross loss of power for the federal government. The people could not be controlled as strictly. Even the suggestion of a cutback would cause a chorus of socialists -- Clinton, the Democrats in Congress and their sycophants in the press -- to scream bloody murder. So, Congress is going to tinker with the regulatory system a little. Now comes the "Regulatory Right-to-Know Act of 1999," or HR 1074. It just passed the House last week and now goes to that sink hole called the Senate. The House estimated that it costs the American people an extra $700 billion in hidden costs every year just to comply with federal rules and regulations. Republicans in the House want to know how much, if any, of this money is getting measurable results. "Americans deserve to know where their hard- earned tax dollars are going, and this bill will provide that information," said House Commerce Committee Chairman Tom Bliley (R-VA), chief sponsor of the bill. The socialists and liberals in the federal government are up in arms, though. The Clinton administration and the old line Democrats oppose the bill, saying the benefits of federal health and safety rules are difficult to quantify and the bill would put unneeded new burdens on federal agencies. Yeah, they would have to be a little bit accountable for once. The bill requires the director of the Office of Management and Budget to submit to Congress an annual analysis of the impact of federal rules and paperwork on both the public and private sector. In that analysis, the costs and benefits of each agency and agency program, rule and regulation must be specified and the OMB must include a report on duplications and inconsistencies between agencies. Furthermore, "the Director of the Office of Management and Budget shall arrange for 2 or more persons that have nationally recognized expertise in regulatory analysis and regulatory accounting, and that are independent of and external to the Government, to provide peer review of each accounting statement

-Caveat Lector- http://www.worldnetdaily.com/bluesky_btl/19990804_xcbtl_to_arkan sa.shtml THURSDAY AUGUST 05 1999 Joseph Farah My last will and column LITTLE ROCK -- When you read this column, God-willing, I will have testified as an expert witness in an important First Amendment case in ... gulp ... Arkansas. By tomorrow (Thursday), God-willing, I will be outahere -- on my way home, safe and sound. I've avoided Arkansas like the plague for the last several years. Too much small-time corruption here for me Too much fear. ... Too many mysterious deaths. I don't plan to join the body count. I came to stand up for a good man -- Pat Matrisciana, a filmmaker who put it all on the line to expose the many scandals surrounding the Clinton administration like a funeral shroud. Gennifer Flowers, Bill Clinton's long-time mistress, told Chris Matthews the other day that she avoided the Clinton killing fields by remaining high-profile -- even if she was ridiculed, dismissed, rebuffed and scoffed at by most of the establishment press. Matthews asked her if she really believed the man she loved for so many years -- Bill Clinton -- had actually ordered people to be killed. Without batting an eyelash, Flowers answered affirmatively. I'm following the Gennifer Flowers strategy. If my plane should blow up or get hijacked by terrorists, if I should suddenly become depressed and shoot myself with someone else's gun leaving no fingerprints, if I should suffer a heart attack after eating in a Little Rock restaurant -- just add my name to the list, folks. Why me? I guess you could classify me as a double threat. First, as the personification of the Clinton's media enemies list, my story offering documented proof that the White House used the Internal Revenue Service to attack the president's political adversaries still smolders -- threatening, at a moment's notice, to set the national newscape ablaze. Secondly, I guess you could call me a key witness in a politically inspired defamation case brought by two Arkansas cops involved with drug kingpin/Clinton pal Dan Lasater and the notorious "boys on the tracks" case -- a trial that has already seen two more strange deaths. Anyway, here's what I came to Little Rock to tell the jury: Pat Matrisciana not only had a constitutional right to make and distribute his film, "Obstruction of Justice: The Mena Connection," he had a duty as an American filmmaker-journalist. The day the courts start punishing courageous, muckraking journalists who pursue and expose official corruption with multimillion-dollar judgments is the day this nation becomes a full-blown police state (like Arkansas?). By every standard of professional documentary journalism, Matrisciana performed admirably in his pursuit of truth. Many people close to me did not want me to come to Arkansas. My longevity as a long-term Clinton critic, they suggest, is partially explained by my deliberate avoidance of such venues. But, like my battle with the politically directed IRS, I believe the best defense is a high-profile offense -- just like Gennifer Flowers said. As I winged my way to Little Rock, I heard a report that a new book by Chris Anderson documents that Hillary Clinton did, indeed, as has been reported elsewhere, have a long-term affair with the late White House deputy counsel Vincent Foster. Foster's death is just one of many associated with this administration that has never been explained -- no matter what Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr would have you believe. This is a death I know something about. It's one of the investigations that landed me on the Clinton enemies list. The Clinton administration did a remarkable job keeping the information about Foster and Hillary quiet all these years. It was never even discussed as a possible motivation for Foster's untimely, violent and mysterious death in any of the official reports. That's an example of why it is so vital to protect the free flow of information -- apart from information disseminated by official government sources. And that's precisely why I'm here in ... gulp ... Little Rock. And why I hope to be outahere real soon. Keep me in your prayers, folks. And add one for Pat Matrisciana, the boys on the tracks and their courageous mother, Linda Ives, who also believes the only way to fight successfully is right out in the open.

[CTRL] Income Tax Returns Confidential-Are They Really?[Larry Bolin]
-Caveat Lector- Income Tax Returns Confidential Are They Really? -by Larry Bolin Most Americans who file their taxes every year expect their information to be confidential and would only be released under very limited circumstances. Those Americans feel that the Internal Revenue Service has strict guidelines and would keep their information private. Those Americans believe that if an employee of the federal government releases their tax return information illegally, that those responsible would be prosecuted. Those Americans would be wrong. During my trial, there was another casualty that occurred besides my conviction. It was my wife Jackies privacy. The release of my wifes tax return and return information by agents with the Internal Revenue Service and a member of the Department of Justice, David M. Leta, violated Jackies privacy. It also appears to have violated the laws passed by Congress. According to Title 26 U.S.C. 7213 (a), a willful, unauthorized disclosure of tax return information is a felony, carrying a maximum statutory penalty of five years of incarceration, a $250,000 fine and termination of employment. My wife works as a schoolteacher in the field of special education. If she had handled her students information in such a grossly negligent manner as Mr. Leta and others had done with her tax return information, she would have been fired from her job without much of a discussion[snip, snip] But not in this case. It appears that these "public servants" have given Jackie and her fellow Americans' privacy the proverbial finger. IS YOUR IRS AGENT A THIEF? Does a bear do the you-know-what in the woods?

[CTRL] Passing the Buck [lol]
-Caveat Lector- "If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principle difference between a dog and a man." --Mark Twain Passing the Buck One day Mr. Edwards fell unconscious with a heart attack. His wife quickly called 911. The ambulance delivered Mr. Edwards to the nearest emergency room, which was located in a Catholic hospital. Immediately the ailing man was taken to the operating room for heart surgery. The operation went well. When Mr. Edwards regained consciousness, he was reassured by a Sister of Mercy, who was waiting by his bed. "Mr. Edwards, youre going to be just fine," said the nun, gently patting his hand. "We do need to know, however, how you intend to pay for your stay here. Are you covered by insurance?" "No, Im not," the man whispered hoarsely. "Then can you pay in cash?" asked the nun. "Im afraid I cannot, Sister." "Well, do you have any close relatives?" the nun persisted. "Just my sister in New Mexico," Mr. Edwards answered. "But shes a humble spinster nun." "Oh, I must correct you, Mr. Edwards," said the Sister of Mercy. "Nuns are not spinsters. You sister is married to God." "Wonderful," said Mr. Edwards. "In that case, please send the bill to my brother-in-law." a joke going around Lucent Corp. Board Votes No on Company Anti-Slave Labor Policy Stock owners of Lucent Corporation cast 71 million shares in favor of creating an anti-slave labor policy for Lucents China dealings, but the Board of Directors voted against the share owner proposition at their Feb. 17 annual meeting of stockholders, citing their current policies already contained such guidelines. "This vote of no confidence in Lucents management over an obvious human rights abuse is very heartening for real reform," Carl Olson commented. Olson is the Chairman of State Department Watch, a public interest group in Washington, D.C. The problem of the Chinese laogai slave labor system confronts Lucent in its multi-million dollar deals with China. Its close connection resulted in a visit by President of China Jiang Zemin to its headquarters in New Jersey during October 1997. President Zemins regime continues with its dictatorial crackdown on numerous human rights and businesses in China. The massive laogai, a system of more than 1000 prison camps in China, imprisons 8 million men, women and children in factories, farms and other facilities producing a wide range of products, including many for export to the United States. It also presents unfair competition to free labor in China and elsewhere, including the United States. The laogai system was set up to deal with the millions of suspected and real opponents of the Chinese dictatorship. Lucent management claims they would never do business in a country with "excessive" human rights violations. The stock owner sponsor of the proposal to establish an anti-slave labor policy, Mark Seidenberg, vice chairman of State Department Watch, had sponsored a similar proposal last year. His statement for this years proxy statement pointed out that Lucent has nothing about slave labor in any of its board resolutions, contracts, agreements with joint ventures or by-laws. Lucents management says that it is doing enough. Speaking on behalf of Seidenberg at the annual meeting in Wilmington, Del., human rights activist Thor Halvorssen pointed out, "It is unsettling that Lucents management has accepted the repressive aspects of the Communist Government of China instead of standing up for our American values of freedom, equality before the law and human dignity." Although the proposal did not pass, the 71 million shares in favor showed a leap of 7 million from last year. "Our campaign to stop supporting slave labor has received a big boost today," Olson stated. "It will be expanded to other companies enmeshed in China which have equally compromised policies." The campaign to boost the stock voted in favor has been hampered by large stock owners who always vote against stock owner resolutions regardless of the subject. State Department Watch Prosperity Hindered by Soc. Security Average American families are losing $1 million by having to participate in Social Security compared to what they would earn by placing the money they give up in Social Security taxes into the stock market, said Peter Ferrara of Americans for Tax Reform. This would be three times the amount that Social Security promises but cannot pay. Ferrara said that average income people would have a whole new realm of prosperity opened to them by adopting one of the reforms being promoted by the Cato Institute or Senator Phil Gramm, changes that could also eliminate the $9.5 trillion unfounded liability of the Social Security trust fund. The only way to keep Democrats from blocking tax cuts with calls to save Social Security is to address the two in tandem, said Ferrara. "Theres nothing more we could do to

-Caveat Lector- - --- Picture: WND Exclusive - --- THE IMPERIAL PRESIDENCY Executive Order 13083 replaced with new one Federalism policy still broadens scope of Washington's power - --- By David M. Bresnahan © 1999 WorldNetDaily.com WASHINGTON, D.C. -- There's good news and bad news from the White House. The good news is that Executive Order 13083 has been officially revoked, but the bad news is that a new executive order on Federalism has replaced it. Governors, mayors, and citizens from all political parties rallied together in an effort to abolish EO 13083 when it was signed in May 1998. WorldNetDaily first broke the news of what initially appeared to be a non-threatening document. Elected officials were not aware of EO 13083 until WorldNetDaily asked for comments, but they soon went to work to stop it. Shortly after the nation's governors voted in the National Governor's Association convention in opposition to the order, President Clinton signed EO 13095 which suspended 13083. Many expressed concern that it was only suspended and not revoked. The uprising of governors, who were joined by the nation's mayors, was over the clever wording used by President Clinton in EO 13083. Gov. Mike Leavitt, R-Utah, protested loudly and claimed that EO 13083 did not clarify previous federalism executive orders -- it destroyed them. "This order (EO 13083) represents a 180-degree turn from all previous federalism aimed to restrain federal action over states," said Leavitt in disagreement with the Clinton fact sheet issued at the time. "The current version of this new order is written to justify federal supremacy," he stated last year. The White House fact sheet claimed that President Clinton believed EO 13083 was necessary in order to "protect individual liberty." Critics insisted he was taking liberty away. Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, also spoke out strongly against EO 13083. He told WorldNetDaily that it gave further authority to government agencies to establish rules and regulations that would have the power and effect of law, even though Congress did not vote on such laws. The new executive order is titled "Federalism," and does not yet have a number. Both Leavitt and the Republican Governors Association were contacted after it was issued. Leavitt's office has not yet responded to requests for comments. The RGA spokesperson was not aware of it, and Rep. Paul's office could not be reached because it was late in the day. Kristen Fedewa of the Republican Governors Association was not aware of the new executive order, but she remembered the problems with EO 13083 and the way President Clinton tried to sneak it through unnoticed. "Well, they're getting ready for NGA (National Governors Association convention) which is very fortuitous," said Kristen Fedewa when contacted at RGA headquarters. "They issued it last time right before we were getting ready for NGA, and I don't know if it was deliberate because they thought we'd all be busy, or they wanted us all to talk about it at NGA. My suspicion is the first one," she told WorldNetDaily. When President Clinton suspended EO 13083, he promised to involve the nation's governors in the process of writing a better version. At the time, some questioned the need to do anything. In his limited remarks upon signing the new order yesterday, President Clinton claimed he had help with the revision, but he did not state where that help came from. "As a former governor, I know how important it is for the American people that the Federal government and State and local governments work together as partners. The executive order on federalism I signed will strengthen our partnership with State and local governments and ensure that executive branch agencies are able to do their work on behalf of the American people. I want to thank the representatives of State and local governments who worked with my administration in developing an executive order that enables us to better serve all of the American people," President Clinton stated. A press release from the White House press office also stressed the desire to enhance the partnership between the federal government and the states. That release claims a bipartisan group from seven major intergovernmental organizations of state and local officials assisted in the draft of the new executive order. A letter signed by the participants was sent to President Clinton. It said in part, "The executive order constructively responds to the concerns we raised during these consultations and provides to federal agencies strengthened guidance on the importance of federalism and state and local authority." The White House did not disclose who

Comments *** TIME FOR ABOLITION *** By Peter Weiss *** QUESTIONING THE WAR ON DRUGS *** By Paul Newlin -- - (Editor's note: With the House voting to pass a $792 billion dollar tax cut on Thursday and the Senate slated to vote on the measure late Thursday night, multinational corporations are posed to benefit once again. The Washington Post reported that multinational corporations are posed to gain $24 billion dollars in tax breaks over the next ten years through foreign tax credits. Other specific tax breaks are slated for arms exporters, oil and gas operators, and the steel industry. Unfortunately, these types of tax breaks are not new. A special report issued by the In Focus project this week notes that the U.S. government provides wealthy corporations with more than $167 billion dollars in "corporate welfare" every year. Accompanying the report are two briefing papers focusing on major corporate welfare programs, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) and the Export-Import Bank (Eximbank). In all three pieces, author Janice Shields, coordinator of the Corporate Welfare and TaxWatch projects of the Institute for Business Research, exposes the major benefactors behind these programs and outlines measures to curb the billions these corporations receive each year from taxpayers.) -- - *** CORPORATE WELFARE AND FOREIGN POLICY *** By Janice Shields The U.S. government doles out more than $167 billion annually in what critics dub "aid for dependent corporations (AFDC)." This corporate welfare includes: (1) cash payments by governments to businesses; (2) government provision of below-cost products and services, such as loans and insurance, to businesses; (3) tax breaks for businesses; (4) laws-and changes in laws-that help business bottom lines; and (5) government purchases of goods and services from businesses at inflated prices (though laws are supposed to prevent this). U.S. aid for international investors, exporters, and importers exceeds $32 billion annually and benefits such "needy" recipients as General Motors, Citibank, Archer Daniels Midland, and Boeing. The Market Access Program (MAP), for example, uses taxpayer money to reimburse corporate foreign advertising costs. The Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) supplies loans and insurance to companies investing abroad. Federal tax law allows exporters to exempt a portion of revenues from taxation. The Sugar Program, which limits U.S. sugar imports, increases the sweetener industry's income by keeping supplies lower, leading to higher prices. The validity of corporate arguments supporting their welfare programs is often questionable. For example, some executives claim that subsidies and tax breaks are needed to create or maintain U.S. exports and jobs. Proponents of MAP contend that these subsidies generate $16 in export revenue for every $1 in taxpayer costs. Yet, U.S. General Accounting Office studies could not document any increase in exports due to MAP expenditures. Similarly, the Congressional Research Service could not confirm the job creation claims of OPIC beneficiaries. The tax break that allows U.S. corporations to defer payment of more than $1.3 billion annually in U.S. taxes on foreign earnings until remitted actually encourages U.S. companies to invest overseas. Corporate welfare may also harm international relations, especially when companies force countries to compete against each other to attract businesses by offering more subsidies and tax breaks or when countries use subsidies and tax breaks to retaliate against each other's policies. For example, the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture recently threatened to provide Export Enhancement Program cash bonuses to

-Caveat Lector- Paris, Saturday, August 7, 1999 U.S. Plans New Missile In Project With Japan Joint Design Effort Awaits Final Approval On Details of System - --- By Don Kirk International Herald Tribune - --- TOKYO - Japan and the United States expect to reach a formal agreement next week on research toward developing a ballistic missile as part of a defense system that military analysts here say may ultimately lead to a joint U.S.-Japan military command. Japanese defense officials said Friday that the U.S. Defense Department and the Japan Defense Agency had worked out specific terms of a memorandum under which researchers would collaborate on four basic aspects of the missile's design, including nose cone, warhead, infrared seeker and rocket motor. U.S. officials confirmed that in a few days the State Department and the Japanese Foreign Ministry would exchange notes that will set out a general framework within which military leaders in both countries will agree on how to carry out the project over the next five to six years. ''The exchange of notes gives the authority to sign the memorandum of understanding,'' said Kohei Masuda, director of defense policy for the Japan Defense Agency. ''The memorandum describes details of the work itself.'' Mr. Masuda said his office already had copies of the memorandum, under which ''the Japanese and American sides will jointly design'' a missile equipped with a so-called kinetic warhead capable of shattering an enemy missile without exploding. Japanese officials said the memorandum would specify which country had primary responsibility for each component. Japanese and American officials discussed final details of the exchange of diplomatic notes - and the accompanying memorandum - amid rising tensions over North Korea's apparent intention to test-fire an advanced version of the Taepodong missile that it launched over Japan nearly a year ago. Military analysts, some of them retired senior Japanese military officers, talked frankly of the possibilities of an arrangement that many Japanese still regard as almost taboo: the formation of a joint command, possibly led by an American general. They saw the rise of such a command as a consequence of close collaboration between the United States and Japan on ballistic-missile defense and the need for a single commander to be able to make immediate combat decisions free of political constraints. ''If there's ballistic-missile defense, we have to have a joint command,'' said Masashi Nishihara, professor at the National Defense Academy, which educates officers for the Japanese Army, Navy and Air Force. He acknowledged that this remained a sensitive issue among the Japanese, who are still governed by a ''peace constitution'' that forbids sending forces overseas, U.S.-Japanese collaboration on ballistic-missile defense would be another step toward converting Japan's military establishment into a major fighting force. Japan's armed forces, the Self-Defense Forces, with 241,000 troops, are regarded as well-equipped with conventional weapons even though their budget is limited to 1 percent of the gross national product, which last year totaled nearly $5 trillion The U.S.-Japanese dialogue has accelerated in recent weeks as intelligence reports have indicated that North Korea has already built the Taepodong-2 missile, with a range of 5,950 kilometers (3,700 miles), more than twice that of the Taepodong-1. Japan has been eager both to develop its own ballistic-missile defense system and to launch an intelligence satellite to compensate for what it sees as the failure of the United States to warn them about the Taepodong-1. At the same time, Japanese officials still believe they need to work closely with Washington. ''Japan's future rests on the U.S.-Japan alliance,'' said Hisahiko Okazaki, a former diplomat who has also served as director of defense intelligence. Military analysts see new guidelines for U.S.-Japan defense cooperation as providing the basis not only for a more forceful military policy but also for a joint command. The guidelines, approved last spring by the Japanese Parliament, authorize a ''mechanism'' for officers from the two countries to coordinate ''respective activities during contingencies.'' Mr. Masuda said he believed the mechanism would consist initially of an umbrella committee with several subcommittees and perhaps a coordination center staffed by U.S. and Japanese colonels, aided by liaison officers from both sides. Defense analysts said the coordination center could turn into a joint command if war broke out in the region. ''I hope we will have that kind of headquarters,'' said Shigeto Nagano, a retired general who once commanded the army. ''Studies should begin

-Caveat Lector- Picture CULTURE WATCH Picture Picture Picture Picture People are amazed at your "insight" because they can't imagine how much they have in common with the rest of the population. Picture Fortune tattling by Debbie Nathan e-mail feedback 8/4/99 The phone rang, and as usual I grabbed it as fast as I could. "Thank you for calling the Psychic Network," I said, mixing my normal "come on kids do the dishes now!" voice with a breathy attempt to sound otherworldly. "Im Deborah." (Deborah sounds more mysterious than Debbie.) "Can I have your name and your birth date?" "Teneecia, July 3," a small voice answered, and when she added the year, I saw she was 18 the minimum age you must be to have your fortune read on the phone. I went into my spiel, which is designed to put the client in an accepting mood and rack up valuable minutes of 900-telemarketing time. "Teneecia," I started my singsong, "Im a tarot reader. First Ill choose a card to represent you, then do a general reading. Im shuffling now; tell me when it feels right to stop. While I do the general reading you be thinking of specific questions to ask later on." As usual, I made riffling noises with the cards without bothering to shuffle, much less deal. I heard a baby crying in the background. "Ready?" I asked. But Teneecia (her name and month of birth have been changed to conceal her identity) didnt want a general reading. "Please!" she begged. "My boyfriend got killed. My little boys father. We had words, and he left the house and got caught in a shoot-out. I never saw him conscious again. I need to tell him I love him. I need to know he dont blame me for him leaving the house and getting killed. I need some last words. Can you hear him in the cards? Can you tell me what hes saying? Otherwise Im going to kill myself so I can talk to him." Job hunt I was brooding in a motel room in a strange city the first time I saw a psychic infomercial. I wasnt as interested in the incongruously glamorous celebrity flacks Dionne Warwick, Billy Dee Williams and others as I was in ordinary people testifying to their life-transforming psychic interventions. An office manager said that her psychic told her if she went to a Christmas party, the first man she talked to would become her husband; now theyre married and expecting a child. A housewife who lost her cat found it in the exact place predicted. "She knew everything about me!" gushed another customer about the reader who correctly told her she wanted to attend computer school. The satisfied customers mostly women didnt look like they could afford to shell out $4.99 a minute, especially not for entertainment. Afterward I learned that the biggest company, Psychic Friends, was taking in $150 million a year before it was bankrupted last year by competition from numerous smaller companies including Psychic Readers, Kenny Kingston and LaToya Jackson. By the late 1990s, these businesses had jacked the industrys earnings up to at least $300 million annually. For this we can thank the Reagan administration; in 1984, the Federal Communications Commission lifted its 16-minute-an-hour restriction on TV advertising, paving the way for monster hourlong infomercials. Add to this a dramatic proliferation of 800- and 900-number marketing and computerized billing technologies. The result was an enormous "futures" market. At the time, I was a struggling freelance journalist, so I decided to write about the industry after working in it. As someone whos so skeptical of the paranormal that half the time I cant remember my astrological sign, I thought it would be revealing if someone like myself could do a good job as a dial-a-clairvoyant. Besides, my preliminary research revealed that the work paid $15 an hour and it was steady. Thats a lot more than you can say for freelance writing. After years of cranking out articles for starvation pay, Id gotten an agent and received assignments from slick national magazines. But by the late 1990s, journalism was as crazy as the telephone-psychic business; people were buying and selling magazines the way the rich used to speculate in pork bellies. Amid the wheeling and dealing, editors would come on staff, buy pieces from writers like me, then move to other magazines, leaving unedited articles behind which languished in new editors desks and never got published. I was sick of the business, and beneath my psychic-industry muckraker bravado, I was fantasizing a change of trade. Shuffling cards To get my career as a psychic jump-started, I signed up for a nine-hour class with Grace, a bulky, fast-talking blonde who has had three husbands and five kids and makes a good living reading cards at psychic fairs. The tarot deck harks back to the Renaissance, when tarot was a game with no more spiritual significance than the modern pastime of bridge.

Cline What follows is a discussion of Operation Garden Plot, the Federal Government's plan for Civil Disturbance Control using the military. This plan developed from plans put together in the 1970's under Nixon, revised in the 1980's and had been revised under Clinton. The newer Field Manual for the US Military (FM 100-19) for Domestic Support Operations refers heavily to this Plan, particularly in chapter 7. When becoming familiar with Operation Garden Plot and with FM 100-19, the escalation in the use of the military for civil matters and the escalated training utilizing US forces in US cities, becomes clear. These are not training exercises preparing solely for actual implementation in foreign areas. They are training exercises preparing for the prospect of implementation here in our own country. Particularly disturbing are the provisions that tie this to the National Guard State Partnership Program which brings foreign troops into the picture, particularly under provisions of Clinton's Presidential Directive 25 (PDD-25) which is still classified in it's entirety. Operation Garden Plot The United States Civil Disturbance Plan 55-2. Donald L. Cline The following information was obtained under the Freedom of Information Act. The information herein is DECLASSIFIED and does not come within the scope of directions governing the protection of information affecting the national security. It took a little more than three years to obtain a full copy of Operation Garden Plot from the U.S. Government, and was done so under the freedom of information act for unclassified documents. The implications within the full context of this document should make the hair on the back of your head stand on end! In this document signed by the Secretary of the Army, is hereby assigned as DOD Executive Agent for civil disturbance control operations. Under Plan 55-2 he is to use airlift and logistical support, in assisting appropriate military commanders in the 50 states, District of Columbia, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and US possessions and territories, or any political subdivision thereof. The official name of this project is called "Operation Garden Plot." Under this plan for the deployment of Operation Garden Plot, the use of CIDCON-1 will be mandatory. This direct support of civil disturbance control operations is to be used by the Army, USAF, Navy, and Marine Corp. with an airlift force to be comprised of MAC Organic Airlift Resources, airlift capable aircraft of all other USAF major commands, and all other aerial reconnaissance and Airborne Psychological Operations. This is to include control communications systems, aeromedical evacuation, helicopter and Weather Support Systems. If any civil disturbance by a resistance group, religious organization, or other persons considered to be non-conformist takes place, under Appendix 3 to Annex B of Plan 55-2 hereby gives all Federal forces total power over the situation if local and state authorities cannot put down said dissenters. Annex A, section B of Operation Garden Plot defines tax protesters, militia groups, religious cults, and general anti-government dissenters as Disruptive Elements. This calls for the deadly force to be used against any extremist or dissident perpetrating any and all forms of civil disorder. Under section D, a Presidential Executive Order will authorize and direct the Secretary of Defense to use the Armed FForces of the United States to restore order. 2 TAB A APPENDIX 1 TO ANNEX S USAF CIVIL DISTURBANCE PLAN 55-2 EXHIBIT POR:SGH, JCS Pub 6, Vol 5, AFR 160-5 hereby provides for America's military and the National Guard State Partnership Program to join with United Nations personal in said operations. This links selected U.S. National Guard units with the Defense Ministries of "Partnership For Peace." This was done in an effort to provide military support to civil authorities in response to civil emergencies. Under Presidential Decision Directive No. 25, this program serves to cement people to relationships between the citizens of the United States, and the global military of the UN establishments of the emerging democracies of Central and Eastern European countries. This puts all of our National Guardsmen under the direct jurisdiction of the United Nations. Section 3: This plan could be implemented under any of the following situation: (1) SITUATION. Spontaneous civil disturbances which involve large numbers of persons and/or which continue for a considerable period of time, may exceed the capacity of local civil law enforcement agencies to suppress.

[CTRL] Hillary's lover, the FBI and the vital questions[LondonTelegraph]
-Caveat Lector- ISSUE 1534 Saturday 7 August 1999 Hillary's lover, the FBI and the vital questions By Ambrose Evans-Pritchard Now it's Hillary the First Shiksa Hillary Clinton was warned. If she used her position as First Lady to launch a candidacy for the US Senate, she would forfeit her privileges and immunity. Suppressed stories would come to light. Her on-off, 15-year love affair with Vincent W Foster would find its way from the fringes of right-wing, talk-radio to the pages of the great metropolitan newspapers. As a politician, she would be fair game. And so it has happened this week, through the unlikely medium of "Bill and Hillary: The Marriage", a soap opera of re-heated allegations, mostly without identified sources. But by dint of good timing, it has at least succeeded in breaking the Hillary-Vince taboo. That is progress. But the greater taboo still stands. No newspaper, no magazine, no political party, no element of the US power structure will dwell on the fact that Mrs. Clinton's lover met his early end in the shrubbery of a Civil War park, with an untraceable Colt .38 revolver wedged in his hand, ostensibly by suicide. But even that taboo may not last for ever. She called him Vincenzo Fosterini. They downed Chianti over their long lunches at La Villa in Little Rock, soul mates drawn together by the suffocating Philistinism of Arkansas. A secretive, loyal, elegant, 6ft 4ins litigation attorney, with a devilish smile, it was he who recruited her as the first woman lawyer at the Rose law firm, and gave her her first case before a jury - her brief was to defend a company being sued because a hillbilly had found a dead mouse in his tin of pork and beans. Welcome to Arkansas. Vince was the master: Hillary was the besotted, mesmerized apprentice, even though she was the Yale-educated northerner, the veteran of the Nixon impeachment inquiry. She picked up his fastidious little ticks. Never fold your clothes when you're packing. You roll them up. "Vince taught me that," she lectured her daughter's nanny, Becky Brown. But then, she spent more time traveling with Vince than she did with her own, feckless spouse: to London, to New York, and to Chicago. Gradually, the relationship changed. She became First Lady of Arkansas, bought some clothes, condescended to wear make-up, switched from pebble glasses to contact lenses, and turned herself into a celebrity, more beautiful with age. She moved on. He fell deeper in love, willing to do anything for her, and as I discovered investigating Foster in the early 1990s, she took advantage of this blind loyalty to take care of dirty business, first in Arkansas and then in Washington, where he was installed as Deputy White House Counsel. It is a known fact that Foster served as the Clintons' general factotum at the White House, handling their tax problems, their blind investment trust, and the continuing fall-out from the Whitewater property deal. That much is beyond dispute. It is also known that a raiding party entered Foster's office shortly after his death on July 20, 1993. A Secret Service officer observed Hillary Clinton's chief of staff, Maggie Williams, leaving the office that night with an armful of files. Finally, it is known that Foster had a fear that his phones were being tapped at the White House. These facts alone should give pause for thought. Foster, after all, was the highest ranking official to meet a violent death in unexplained circumstances since President John F Kennedy. Even if it is true that Foster drove himself to Fort Marcy Park in his Honda Accord - a big if, since the police could not find his car keys (they turned up later in his pocket at the morgue after a visit by White House aides) - and even if he walked into the park and shot himself in the mouth, as we are told, it is still quite a story. He never left a suicide note: the scraps of paper without fingerprints found six days later in his briefcase after it had been searched were just random jottings. And there was no apparent motive: the claim that he was depressed was largely invented later. But did the First Lady's lover in fact shoot himself, or was he murdered? Kenneth Starr, the hapless scourge of the Clintons, certainly concluded that it was suicide. That is authority enough for most people. It has clearly dissuaded the Republicans from asking any more questions . . . for now. But it is not enough for those who have stepped deep into this swamp, and, ultimately, it may not stand up in court. A crime scene witness, Patrick Knowlton, is quietly fighting a federal lawsuit against the FBI, alleging that agents falsified his witness statements and intimidated him as part of a conspiracy to cover up the death. His court filing tears the Starr report to shreds. Those who say that Bill Clinton's nemesis would not have missed a chance to get to the bottom of the Foster case misunderstand the argument. The central allegation is that the Washington office of the FBI
