[CTRL] Killer bees attack Mexican school; 40 children injured
-Caveat Lector- (Maybe, following in the steps of Klinton, the Mexican leaders will call for a new law outlawing killer bees near schools. Yes, that should solve the problem. --SW) Killer bees attack Mexican school; 40 children injured Copyright © 1999 Nando Media Copyright © 1999 Reuters News Service VILLAHERMOSA, Mexico (June 1, 1999 9:02 p.m. EDT http://www.nandotimes.com) - Killer bees swarmed into a school in southeast Mexico on Tuesday, stinging 40 children and a teacher, Mexican Red Cross officials said. Five children, ages 6 to 12, and the teacher were hospitalized after being stung by the Africanized bees, which attack at the slightest provocation, said Red Cross doctor Juan Lopez. The incident occurred at a school in the town of Centro, in Tabasco state. Thirty-six other children were given first-aid treatment at a health center near the school after suffering pain and vomiting fits. African honey bees are a hybrid of European honeybees and an aggressive African import introduced to Brazil in 1956 for interbreeding. Some 26 colonies escaped into the wild in 1957 and that front has been moving steadily northward through Latin America at a rate of about 300 miles a year. Mexico is already colonized and in 1990, the Africanized bees reached Texas. They can kill if a person is stung enough times. Several people have died in Argentina and Costa Rica in recent years.

[CTRL] Hubbell/Hillary Charges Reinstated
-Caveat Lector- Charge Reinstated Against Hubbell WASHINGTON (AP) -- A federal appeals court reinstated a criminal charge that Webster Hubbell engaged in a scheme to conceal legal work he and Hillary Rodham Clinton did on a fraudulent Arkansas land deal. The three-judge panel unanimously rejected on Tuesday Hubbell's argument that one of 15 charges against him should be dismissed as too vague. His trial is to begin Aug. 9. An 85-paragraph section of the indictment enumerates some 50 alleged lies by Hubbell over a six-year span to regulators from the Resolution Trust Corp. and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. ``It cannot be the case that the more elaborate the scheme or the more numerous the acts of concealment, the less able the government is to charge a crime,'' said the court decision. The judges were Stephen Williams and Laurence Silberman, Republican appointees, and David Tatel, a Clinton appointee. ``Hubbell's ... argument that the indictment fails to give sufficient notice because it provides too much detail is, to be charitable, unconvincing,'' the court added. U.S. District Judge James Robertson had ruled that the allegations against Hubbell were not specific enough. Federal regulators say the land development involved, a 1,050-acre tract south of Little Rock called Castle Grande, was riddled with insider dealing and fictitious sales. The project was owned by Mrs. Clinton's former Whitewater partner, Jim McDougal, and Hubbell's father-in-law, Seth Ward. Mrs. Clinton has testified repeatedly that she remembers almost nothing of her work on Castle Grande in 1985-86. Her work on the project was disclosed when her missing law firm billing records turned up in the White House family residence in 1996 under still-unexplained circumstances. Castle Grande cost McDougal's savings and loan close to $4 million. The government eventually took over the failing institution at a cost to taxpayers of $65 million.

[CTRL] World Court, For Laughs
-Caveat Lector- "The World Court, formally known as the International Court of Justice, has no enforcement powers and its decisions are not binding." Yugoslav Cease-Fire Request Axed By ANTHONY DEUTSCH .c The Associated Press THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) -- The World Court on Wednesday rejected a request by Yugoslavia for an immediate cease-fire in NATO's air campaign, dashing a move by Belgrade to stop punishing airstrikes it contends violate international law. By a ruling of 12-4, the U.N. court rejected Yugoslavia's request that Belgium immediately stop its involvement in the alliance's military operation, and was issuing decisions throughout the day on identical cases involving nine other NATO members, including the United States. The court rejected Yugoslavia's contention that the alliance was committing genocide with its campaign, saying there was no clear indication of an attempt to bring about Yugoslavia's ``physical destruction in whole or in part,'' and that it had no jurisdiction to order a cessation of hostilities based on such a claim. Yugoslavia filed the lawsuits on April 29, more than a month after the airstrikes began on March 24, challenging the international legality of the alliance's use of force. Yugoslavia asked the court, the highest judicial arm of the United Nations, to order an immediate cease-fire as a first step while it considers whether the airstrikes are illegal, a process that could take years. In addition to the United States and Belgium, Yugoslavia filed complaints against Canada, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain and the United Kingdom, asserting that the airstrikes breach international agreements, including the U.N. charter and international conventions on genocide. Last month, lawyers for the accused countries argued their case in the court's ornate Peace Palace, with the United States urging justices to toss it out as a ``political smokescreen.'' The Western allies insist the air campaign is a legally justified intervention aimed at ending a humanitarian catastrophe in Kosovo. Yugoslavia has accused the allies of genocide against its people, claiming NATO is endangering the entire population with pollution caused by attacks on oil refineries and chemical plants. It contends there is no international justification for such an operation, and that no U.N. Security Council resolution authorized it. The 16-judge World Court, formally known as the International Court of Justice, has no enforcement powers and relies on nations to comply voluntarily with its decisions, which are not binding.

[CTRL] George Bush and Tiananmen Square
-Caveat Lector- "George Bush, formerly an ENVOY to Beijing, ``believed deeply that a relationship'' between [the US and China] was in the best interest of whatever and ``wanted to MANAGE short-term events in such a way as to assure [certain long-term goals]." Bush Appealed to China on Tiananmen By JIM ABRAMS .c The Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) -- Envoys of President Bush traveled to Beijing shortly after the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown with the message that the United States wanted good relations with China but needed an end to the arrests and killings. Talking points for the mission, made public Tuesday, conveyed to the Chinese that what they did with their citizens was an ``internal affair'' but how Americans reacted to the oppression was an internal affair of the United States. The memo told the Chinese they had to realize that Congress was eager to toughen sanctions imposed by Bush, and ``further arrests and executions will inevitably lead to greater demands in the U.S. to respond.'' The declassified document was among 35 concerning the events surrounding the Tiananmen crackdown made public by the National Security Archive, a nongovernmental research institute at George Washington University. Many are memos from the U.S. Embassy in Beijing informing the State Department of developments. The June 29, 1989, memo is a list of themes that National Security Adviser Brent Scowcroft and Deputy Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger were to discuss on their mission to Beijing, which was secret at the time but was disclosed soon afterward. The trip came less than four weeks after the military assault on pro-democracy students occupying Tiananmen Square. The memo emphasized that Bush, a former envoy to Beijing, ``believes deeply that a solid relationship'' between the countries was in the interest of world peace and ``wants to manage short-term events in a way that will best assure a healthy relationship over time.'' But it says the Chinese had to realize that Congress is a co-equal branch of the U.S. government, and China's cooperation was required if the president was to be able to resist congressional demands for stronger anti-Chinese measures. The first documents were from an era of much smaller student demonstrations in 1985 and 1986. One, in late 1986, warned that a crackdown was inevitable if the demonstrations were to become too strident. ``The entire affair could become a net liability for reform with seriously negative policy consequences,'' the embassy told Washington. A memo on June 2, 1989, prepared for Secretary of State James Baker, noted that students had erected a Statue of Liberty-like ``Goddess of Democracy'' on Tiananmen Square with the hope that it would ``anger top leaders'' and prompt a reaction that would ``breathe new life into their flagging movement.'' The documents detailed events starting on June 3 that led to the final military assault on the square. One cable on June 4 said casualty estimates varied from 500 to 2,600 dead, with injuries up to 10,000. A June 5 memo said troops were firing indiscriminately into crowds of unarmed civilians, often with automatic weapons. A June 22 account of a source who witnessed the violence on the square said students had believed that the soldiers would be firing rubber bullets, but ``he had a sickening feeling when he noticed the bullets striking sparks off the pavement near his feet.''

[CTRL] Flu-like Hantavirus Outbreak in Southwest ?
-Caveat Lector- Officials Fear Hantavirus Outbreak By DEBORAH BAKER .c The Associated Press SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) -- Six years ago, people in a vast stretch of the Southwest were fearful of a mysterious, flu-like illness that was killing the previously healthy with frightening speed. The fear is back. Four New Mexicans and one person from Colorado have died this year of hantavirus, and experts are worried this could be the beginning of an especially bad year for the mouse-borne disease. Since the beginning of 1998, there have been more than two dozen cases in the Four Corners states of New Mexico, Arizona, Utah and Colorado -- more than twice as many as in the previous three years combined, said Dr. Brian Hjelle, associate professor at the University of New Mexico School of Medicine. ``The conventional wisdom is, it's El Nino,'' he said. The cyclically recurring disruption in the tropical Pacific made for a wetter-than-usual 1997-98, followed by a milder, drier ``La Nina'' winter just past. More rainfall creates greater cover, more shelter and a bigger food supply -- nuts, seeds, vegetation and insects -- for rodents. That likely means more deer mice, identified as the main culprit in the spread of hantavirus. Hantavirus is typically caught by breathing dust contaminated with a rodent's infected urine, feces or saliva. Experts recommend a wet clean-up, using a disinfectant solution. Dan Bradshaw of Durango, Colo., contracted the disease in 1996 after sweeping out a mouse-infested building at an electronic tower site he owned and then spending the night there. Bradshaw said it took months -- and visits to four different doctors -- to get a correct diagnosis of the coughing fits, blackouts and other symptoms that were making him miserable. A 50-year-old former bicycle racer and marathon runner, his athletic activities have been severely curtailed. ``They hope that the lungs regenerate and repair themselves, but they're not quite sure they will,'' Bradshaw said. Early on, hantavirus resembles the flu: fever and muscle aches, and sometimes chills, headaches, nausea and vomiting. That makes it extremely tough to diagnose on a first visit to a doctor. Once the more serious symptoms start -- acute respiratory problems and fluid buildup in the lungs -- they generally progress rapidly. ``It's still a really difficult, complicated disease,'' said Paul Ettestad, hantavirus epidemiologist with the New Mexico Department of Health. The strain of hantavirus labeled ``Sin Nombre'' or ``No Name'' was first recognized in 1993 after a flurry of cases -- 18 in New Mexico, 10 in Arizona and five in Colorado. In all, more than 200 cases of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome have been confirmed in 30 states -- some of them older, mysterious cases that weren't solved until the strain was identified. Of those, nearly 45 percent have been fatal. DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic screeds are not allowed. Substancenot soapboxing!

[CTRL] Federal Workfare a Failure
-Caveat Lector- Throw tax money at any problem and it's instantly solved. NOT! Rules Keep Welfare Aid Unspent By LAURA MECKLER .c The Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) -- Ana Osegueda spends her days helping move people in San Francisco from welfare to work, but she sends only a handful of clients through the federal government's welfare-to-work program. The $3 billion program was meant to help people with the toughest problems -- people who may have been left in dire straits by strict new welfare rules. But rigid rules about who is eligible, combined with other problems, have left some 92 percent of the first year's money unspent after a year and a half. ``It's really hard to find someone checking `yes' in all those boxes,'' Osegueda said. That's been the case across the country. Michigan, one of the first states to get its money, hasn't spent a dime due to strict rules. In New York City, where most long-term welfare recipients live, there is no one enrolled. ``This is depressingly slow considering it started so long ago, but usually once these things start moving, they start moving,'' said John Twomey, who runs an umbrella group for county boards in New York that distribute the federal money. Clinton administration officials are asking Congress to change the rules so more people can qualify. They also want an additional $1 billion in 2000. But local welfare directors are urging Congress to spend the money elsewhere. And at least one key lawmaker agrees. ``We're certainly not going to put more money into it, because it's not working,'' said Rep. Nancy Johnson, R-Conn., who chairs the House Ways and Means welfare subcommittee. Johnson predicted, however, that Congress will change the rules to make it easier for more people to qualify, particularly low-income fathers of children on welfare. Officials in the states and at the Labor Department, which runs the program, cite several problems, including bureaucratic delays getting it started as well as the eligibility rules. To participate, most recipients must have spent at least 2 1/2 years on welfare or must be nearing their lifetime limit for benefits. They must also have two of three other problems: substance abuse, a poor work history and low educational skills -- defined as no high school diploma plus poor reading ability. That means someone who has been on welfare for five years, has a drug problem and can't read wouldn't qualify if they graduated from high school. ``If you have a high school diploma but can't read it, we can't serve you,'' Labor Secretary Alexis Herman complained. Herman wants Congress to ease the eligibility rules, hoping to focus more on absentee dads. ``We can't finish the job of welfare reform without doing more to help people who have the hardest time,'' she said. The federal program also has run into unexpected competition from local welfare agencies. President Clinton proposed the program in 1997 hoping to help Americans facing tough new welfare rules to find work. He and others feared those with the toughest problems would be left behind. But, as it turned out, the new rules and the robust economy helped the welfare rolls drop faster than anyone predicted. That left states with fewer clients and more money to serve them. The program got under way in October 1997, when the Labor Department released just over $1 billion to 44 states, plus the District of Columbia and three territories, that opted to participate. An additional half-billion was awarded directly to communities through a competition. Through March, just $83.5 million of the state money had been spent, serving 38,705 participants. And last October, Labor got an additional $1.5 billion to distribute. States, which must match every $2 of federal money with $1 in state money, have three years to spend the grants. What isn't spent goes back to the federal Treasury. There are some success stories. In Philadelphia, some 2,500 are working through the program, thanks in part to an advertising campaign that urges people to ask their caseworkers about the federal assistance. Phylis Kelley had been on welfare for five years when she and her 3-year-old son saw an ad. He asked if she had a job, and Kelley was embarrassed by the answer. ``I didn't have answers for him, much less myself,'' she said. She found this program different from others she'd tried. An employment adviser helped her arrange child care, set up transportation and buy work clothes -- and promised to stick with Kelley for a year, helping address whatever problems arose. Kelley is now making $8.75 per hour as a receptionist. ``I had no idea how many jobs were available,'' she said. ``Who knew it would be this easy?''

[CTRL] The Prozac Pusher
-Caveat Lector- Wash. Revokes 'Prozac' Dr.'s License By LINDA ASHTON .c The Associated Press YAKIMA, Wash. (AP) -- State officials have taken away the license of the psychologist dubbed the ``pied piper of Prozac'' because of his aggressive promotion of the antidepressant drug. The state Health Department's Examining Board of Psychology had charged Dr. James Goodwin with unprofessional conduct for failing to comply with a 1996 disciplinary order that he enter into an agreement with an adviser to monitor his practice. In an order Tuesday, the board called Goodwin's conduct unprofessional and wrote that revoking his license is ``the only sanction that sufficiently protects the public.'' Goodwin, 52, said he planned to appeal in federal court in hopes of winning back his license. He also said he would continue to see patients as a mental health therapist. Goodwin contends he has followed the wishes of the examining board, and he added: ``There are people on the licensing board running psychology in this state who are mentally ill and causing many of us problems.'' Goodwin has been in practice in the north-central Washington city of Wenatchee since 1989. In the early 1990s, he attracted widespread attention for his belief that everyone suffers from at least some level of depression and would benefit from a combination of antidepressants and therapy. In December 1993, the licensing board accused Goodwin of breaching patient confidentiality, diagnosing patients without adequate evaluation, pressuring patients into taking Prozac and retaliating against a psychologist who protested his treatment methods.

The "what of it" is that you here admit the possibility other religions prove their tenets as we discussed, yet you couch your admission in the context of insinuating that I "should" be doing something specific just because I am a Christian. Again, your mistake is to treat Christians differentially: you would have better accused all religious people not just me or Christians: Why DRAG Christianity down to that level? Rather, you should be endeavoring to RAISE it, by displaying a strong faith, a strong will, and a strong intelligence, by not needing 'things of the flesh' to 'prove' to others what SHOULD be an intrinsic belief and understanding... You would do well not to slam Christians so ("weak-minded and weak-willed" and pseudo- who lack faith and "who insult God"). I AM a Christian. A TRUE Christian, who unlike you is strong in her faith, Why do you accuse me of not being strong in faith? Again, this is an attempt to paint me in a false light. But I forgive you for it. and therefore has no need to drag the religion into the mud via a sick need to 'prove' anything to anyone regarding her faith... Just what trinket do you NEED, to 'prove' YOUR faith? More of the same.

[CTRL] Fwd: Konformist: Beast of the Month - May 1999
Please send as far and wide as possible. Thanks, Robert Sterling Editor, The Konformist http://www.konformist.com http://www.konformist.com/botm/volume03/botm0599.htm Beast of the Month - May 1999 Monsanto, Korporate Chemical Giant "I yam an anti-Christ..." John Lydon (aka Johnny Rotten) of The Sex Pistols, "Anarchy in the UK" Sometimes, evil is obvious and in your face: take, for example, the NATO bombings of Kosovo, or the school massacre at Littleton, Colorado. At other times, however, evil is secretive and hidden, and when that happens, it often hides in the most unlikely place: out in the open. This is the most popular place to hide for huge multi-national korporations such as Monsanto, The Konformist Beast of the Month, the U.S.-based chemical behemoth whose products are loved and consumed regularly by Americans, despite the fact that even a marginal inspection of their history would reveal a shocking pattern of deceit and contempt for its customers. For those of you who are unaware, Monsanto is best known for introducing the sugar substitute aspartame, which they sell under the brand names of NutraSweet and Equal. Contrary to what the name "NutraSweet" implies, however, aspartame is not nutritious, and is quite unhealthy, having earned the nickname "NutraPoison" from critics. As reported in Alex Constantine's now-classic underground conspiracy expose "Psychic Dictatorship in the USA" (in the aptly-titled chapter devoted to Monsanto and NutraSweet "The Swirl and the Swastika"), as well as the work of noted Monsanto critic Betty Martini of Mission Possible, aspartame has been documented to cause headaches, numbness, fatigue, blurred vision and blindness, heart palpitations, brain lesions and tumors, memory loss, dizziness, muscle spasms, irritability, anxiety attacks, vertigo, seizures, rashes, tachycardia, tinnitus, joint pain, nausea, mood alterations and depression, hearing loss, slurred speech, loss of taste, and insomnia, as well as erode intelligence and short-term memory. It also helps trigger multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, chronic fatigue syndrome, Epstein Barr, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, diabetes, mental retardation, lymphoma, and birth defects. No real surprise here: originally, aspartame was categorized as a biochemical warfare weapon by the Pentagon in a list submitted to Congress. In 1969, Dr. Harry Waisman studied the effects of aspartame on primates, and seven infant monkeys were fed the chemical in milk. One died after 300 days, 5 others had Grand Mal seizures. These findings were deleted from the report to the FDA. MIT researchers surveyed 80 people who suffered brain seizures after eating or drinking products with Aspartame, and the Community Nutrition Institute states: "These 80 cases meets the FDA's own definition of an imminent hazard to the public health, which requires the FDA to expeditiously remove a product from the market." Despite this, NutraSweet was in over 9,000 foods by 1997 and on nearly every restaurant table. The irony is that the two things aspartame is most often marketed for, diabetes and weight loss, it has been shown to not be beneficial for. According to Dr. H. J. Roberts, after summarizing 58 diabetic aspartame reactors, "I now advise ALL patients with diabetes and hypoglycemia to avoid Aspartame products." Further, aspartame triggers a craving for carbohydrates, hardly the reaction wanted for those trying to lose pounds. The FDA has received more than 10,000 consumer complaints over aspartame, approximately 80% of all complaints about food additives since being introduced to the market. If the FDA was an honest organization, NutraSweet would not have ever been approved: fortunately for Monsanto, that isn't the case. Former FDA Commissioner Arthur Hayes overruled his own board of inquiry to approve aspartame (claiming, falsely, that criticism was "anecdotal") then went to work for a public relations firm retained by G.D. Searle (the company which introduced the product that was acquired by Monsanto in 1985.) Federal attorney Sam Skinner was assigned to prosecute Searle for fraudulent tests in their application, but switched sides and went to work for Searle's lawyers instead. Thanks to the compromised nature of the FDA, Monsanto has received a yearly multi-billion dollar license to kill through aspartame, one that it defends relentlessly. They have waged a campaign against stevia, the natural zero-calorie herbal sweetener that is up to 300 times sweeter than sugar, using the FDA - supposedly its "watchdog" - as an attack dog instead. Claiming that stevia has not been proven to be safe as a sweetener (something that aspartame has been certifiably shown not to be), the FDA, under intense pressure and backing by Monsanto, banned it in 1991, then later lifted the ban after receiving numerous complaints from outraged consumers. Still, stevia is only available as a food supplement, and manufacturers can't add it to foods or drinks. In

Please send as far and wide as possible. Thanks, Robert Sterling Editor, The Konformist http://www.konformist.com From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] written by Anthony J. Hilder: THE SECOND ANNUAL PEOPLE'S RALLY AT AREA 51 TO EXPOSE THE LUCIFERIAN NEW WORLD ORDER On the 6th hour of the 6th day of the 6th month (666), the 2nd Annual People's Rally will be held at the periphery of what has been described as America's most "TOP SECRET" underground bacteriological, biological and chemical warfare test site. This covert military facility operates independently from the purview of Congress. The rally, which will be held on Sunday (June 6, 1999) will be preceded by a PRESS CONFERENCE on Saturday, June 5, at high noon at the Little A-le-Inn in Rachel, Nevada. This news conference (public is urged to attend) will feature Ted Gunderson, former Chief Agent-in-Charge of the FBI in Dallas, Memphis and Los Angeles, and Anthony J. Hilder, producer of the ILLUMINATI/CFR expose. Hilder and Gunderson will reveal what they envision as being a series of staged events occuring over the next six months, which will lead the nation towards the installation of martial law, the cancellation of the Constitution and a move towards the acceptance of a One World Government upon the ashes of all national sovereignty. What has this got to do with DREAMLAND (the secret facility) and future wars agains the people of the United States and all sovereign nations of the world? Come and see. This is an invitation for the public to attend and the press to cover this historic event, which is intended to give answers and direction to avert an impending international crisis. There will be a seminar a the Little A-le-Inn from 3 p.m to 5 p.m. and from 7p.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturday, June 5, featuring four different speakers which will expand the information on the national crisis which many in attendance feel will be coordinated with a stock and currency crash coupled with a Y2K catastrophe. If you're looking for another UFOOLOGY event, this is not it. The anti-gravitational flying discs which are being tested at the Groom Lake site are not flown by aliens, but rather pilots who live at the covert operations facility. John Lear, once holder of seventeen different world flight speed and distance aviation records, has been invited to participate. You will be notified within days if Mr. Lear (son of the founder of the Lear jet) will disclose his latest revelations. The Rally on Sunday, June 6 is a lawful public assembly in accordance with the First Amendment. It will take place on public land. All in attendance are CAUTIONED NOT TO CROSS BEYOND THE SIGNS POSTED WHICH INDICATE THE BORDER OF THE BASE. Everyone coming up from Las Vegas or down from Salt Lake are URGED to fill up their tanks with gasoline in either Ash Springs or Alamo BEFORE proceeding up to the Tikaboo Vally and/or the Little A-le-Inn as there are NO gas stations for fifty miles. Three major topics will be addressed at the Seminar. (There will be a $4.00 charge). 1. FRANKENSTEIN FACTORIES There is evidence which would lead us to believe that genetic engineering, cloning and cross-species gene splicing are being conducted. 2. BACTERIOLOGICAL, BIOLOGICAL AND CHEMICAL WARFARE WEAPONRY 3. ANTI-GRAVITATIONAL FLYING DISCS that may be used to stage a mock invasion to create panic and usher in a Global Government under ILLUMINAZI control.

Re: [CTRL] Nato:There is always a cost to defeat an evil.[was Waco an evil?]
-Caveat Lector- No, Howard. I didn't make the whole thing up in order to discredit libertarians. I was shocked by the radio talk show host's comments. He announced that he was a follower of Ron Paul and a champion of "free trade." Then, later in the program, he made the amazing comment that he supported Clinton's Yugoslav war. His stated reason was that Milosevic was a tyrant and presented a threat to the stability of Europe. But I found it odd that a champion of "liberty" would be supporting the indiscriminate bombing of civilian targets and what has to be a destabilization of central Europe for years to come. But why exactly must Yugoslavia be crushed by NATO and the US-EU alliance? I don't think it has anything to do with concern for Milosevic's atrocities. We're not particularly concerned about authoritarian regimes in other parts of the world... so, why Yugoslavia? It clearly relates to the US/EU plan to set up a global trading system in order to maintain the current political/economic status quo. The New World Order, our new rulers, are very concerned that the last vestiges of "socialism" be eradicated in Europe. Look at the pressure being placed on the Scandanavian countries to give up the few remaining protections they have for their workers. If they don't surrender to American and British interests, they will be economically punished. The consolidation of Europe into a tight little trading unit is essential to the overall plan of establishing global "liberty" and "free trade" for all. In order to have a global system of "free trade," national sovereignty must be abolished. After all, governments get in the way of private capital, and there's always the vague possibility that the citizens of the world might ban together to fight back against the economic predators in their midst. In order to prevent that from happening, it's important that government always serve the interests of private capital. And capital always moves in one direction: concentration. Big dog eats little dog and gets bigger, so by its very nature, capitalism must expand into every corner of the world. There is always the thorny problem of overproduction...the constant search for new markets and new populations to exploit. The logic of the capitalistic system is not competitive...it's monopolistic. Big dog must get bigger and bigger. Of course, there are pluses and minuses to this dynamic. The creative potential of human nature is harnessed in radical new waysbut not all of these energies are positive. They're destructive as well. In order for big dog to get bigger, a lot of people must be sacrificed to the great god Mammon. Now, interestingly, many people on the left are cheering on this dynamic...because they see the collapse of national economies and sovereign governments as a prelude to what they envision will be the creation of a dictatorship of the proletariat. Once all of us are dragged into the New World Order "free trade zone," everyone will be placed on an equal footing: we will all be reduced to serfdom, selling our wares in the "global marketplace." Some leftists look forward to this "downsizing" or great leveling of the world's population. That is why so many on the left are champions of economic integration and "free trade." Notice that Christopher Hitchens and the editors of the New Republic are ardent believers in "free trade." They see it as step forward. By collapsing national boundaries and reducing the world into trade zones...many leftists are arguing that labor should become international(remember the old slogan, workers of the world unite.) So, they're ecstatic about the prospect of economic integration. Not surprisingly, there is a strange symbiotic relationship between libertarianism and communism. Both libertarians AND communists want the dismantling of government. But they want deregulation for different reasons. Libs see it as the triumph of capital, while communists envision the collapse of national governments and national economies as a prelude for the creation of a one world government. That's why economic nationalists like Pat Buchanan are discredited. ...The New World Order plan for globalization will go forward..probably under the auspices of George Bush, Jr. in 2000. Personally, I'm an economic nationalist. I believe that government should play a role in protecting the life, liberty and well-being of its citizens from economic and political predators. I oppose libertarianism. The "movement" is using the rhetoric of "freedom" and "liberty" in order to usher in a one world government that will eventually destroy what few civil liberties (I think of them as protections...for me, protectionism is not a dirty word) we have left. As far as capitalism goes, there's nothing wrong with the free market and private wealth accumulation...as long as it doesn't present a threat to the civil liberties of all us... But the wealth accumulators are never

[CTRL] Time magazine is the CFR's mouthpiece [Mad Madeleine and WWIII]
-Caveat Lector- WEDNESDAY JUNE 02 1999 Mad Madeleine and WWIII By Samuel L. Blumenfeld © 1999 WorldNetDaily.com Time magazine is the CFR's mouthpiece when it comes to getting its readers to see the world through NATO-colored glasses. By reading Time's back issues, you begin to see a pattern of persuasion as its experts give us their New World Order slant on things. Sometimes it's subtle, sometimes not, as when Strobe Talbott wrote in July 1992 that "perhaps national sovereignty was not such a great idea after all" and that "the case for world government" was clinched. It should be noted that Strobe is a Rhodes Scholar and was Clinton's roommate at Oxford. He is now shuttling between Washington, Brussels and Moscow to see if he can get the Russians to put pressure on Milosevic to surrender to NATO unconditionally. When Madeleine Albright, our Secretary of State, was asked recently on a radio interview whether the Russians were helping us "negotiate" with Milosevic, she replied that there were no negotiations going on. If Milosevic wanted the bombing to stop, he simply had to accept and implement all of NATO's demands unconditionally. We haven't heard such uncompromising talk since World War II, when the Allies demanded unconditional surrender on the part of the Germans and Japanese. That is why on May 17, Time headlined its puff cover story on the Madame Secretary as "Madeleine's War." Time explained, "In a literal sense of course, that's not true these days. Now that it's become an armed conflict, she plays a supporting role to the President, National Security Adviser Sandy Berger, Defense Secretary Bill Cohen and the military brass." Those are the intellectual cretins who believe it is moral to bomb the Serbs into the Stone Age simply to prove that NATO must be obeyed, or else. Stupid leaders can lead us into untold destruction without even trying. Consider our own morally outstanding leaders: the president, a politically corrupt pathological liar and adulterer; Sandy Berger, with the brain and aplomb of a used-car salesman; our moronic war secretary, William Cohen, who mouths drivel every time he speaks. And we all know the famous statement by Madame Halfbright: "What's the point of having this superb military that you're always talking about if we can't use it?" It doesn't occur to her that the purpose of our military is to defend our country, not to wage aggressive wars against others who have not harmed us. Hers is the talk of an ignoramus who hasn't learned a single lesson in American history. Yet Time is trying to persuade us that she is a wise and compassionate human being who provides the moral backbone for this war. Compassionate? Madeleine and her family once lived in Belgrade when her father was Czech ambassador to Yugoslavia. So she knows the city and the Serbs. Who knows what kind of hatred she's been harboring in her guts all these years and is now getting great pleasure watching the Serbs suffer. Now that NATO has destroyed Belgrade's electrical system, incubators can't work, hospitals must perform their services under candlelight if they don't have their own generators. Children are traumatized by the continued bombing, and 1,200 civilians have been killed. But forgetting the suffering of the Serbs and the Kosovars whose plight simply gets worse as the bombing increases, Madeleine's war is inexorably setting the stage for World War III. When NATO shows the world that it is now the 900-pound gorilla on the block, very few nations will be tempted to resist NATO's demands. This has always been the goal of the New World Order folks. The ruling world authority has to be ruthless enough, powerful enough, and determined enough to make its rule supreme. You can't achieve that kind of authority by being weak or compromising. The very fact that NATO has become this kind of monster is an indication that the New World Order has arrived. As Arthur Schlesinger Jr. explained in Foreign Affairs in July/August 1995, "We are not going to achieve a new world order without paying for it in blood as well as in words and money." Whose blood will it be? The blood of today's American high school students. And whose money will it be? The money of the American taxpayer, which the Congress is already spending to pay for the bombing of Yugoslavia. The fiscal budget for the year 2000 is already at $1.74 trillion! Actually, Yugoslavia and Milosevic are small potatoes when it comes to establishing world hegemony for the CFR crowd. That's why NATO must win this one hands down. They can't afford to lose to Milosevic. Otherwise, what chance will NATO have where the stakes are bigger? At the moment, their bigger sights are on Israel and Russia. China will be a much more difficult nut to crack. But a world conflagration may make it possible for the
[CTRL] Conspiracy Theory
-Caveat Lector- from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Found this but don't know if it's been listed From www.zmag.org Picture Conspiracy Theory Michael Albert NOWADAYS, WHEREVER they go, leftists encounter many questions from newly political folks about this or that political episode--the October Surprise, the BCCI scandal, Irancontra, David Duke--with an emphasis on who did what, when, and with what knowledge and intent. They field far fewer questions about the systemic causes of trends and events. People study the membership of some rogue group. They ignore the structure of government and corporations. How did this "fashion" come about? Where is it taking us? Conspiracy Theory A CONSPIRACY THEORY is a hypothesis that some events were caused by the intractable secret machinat ions of undemocratic individuals. A prime example is to explain Irancontra as the secret rogue acti ons of Oliver North and co-conspirators. Likewise, another conspiracy theory explains the hostage-holding in Carter's last presidential year as the machinations of a "secret team" helping Reagan win the presidency. A conspiracy theory of Karen Silkwood's murder would uncover the names of people who secretly planned and carried out the murder . Bending usage, we could even imagine a conspiracy theory of patriarchy as men uniting to deny women status, or a conspiracy theory of the U.S. government as competing groups seeking power for their own ends. Conspiracies exist. Groups regularly do things without issuing press releases and this becomes a co nspiracy whenever their actions transcend of "normal" behavior. We don't talk of a conspiracy to win an election if the suspect activity includes only candidates and their handlers working privately to develop effective s trategy. We do talk about a conspiracy if the resulting action involves stealing the other team's p lans, spiking their Whiskey Sours, or other exceptional activity. When a conspiracy cause's some outcome, the outcome woul d not have happened had not the particular people with their particular inclinations come together. Conspiracy theories may or may not identify real coteries with real influence. Conspiracy theories: (a) Claim that a particular group acted outside usual norms in a rogue and generally secretive fashion. (b) Disregard the structural features of institutions. Personalities, personal timetables, secret meetings, and conspirators' joint actions, claim attenti on. Institutional relations drop from view. We ask, did North meet with Bush before or after the meeting between MacFarlane and Mr. X? Do we have a document that reveals the plan in advance? Do phone conversations implicate so and so? How credible is that witness? Institutional Theory IN AN INSTITUTIONAL theory, personalities and personal motivations enter the discussion only as res ults of more basic factors. The personal actions culminating in some event do not serve as explanation. The theory explains phenomena via roles, incentives, and dynamics of underlying institutions. An institutional theory doesn't ignore human actions, but the point of an institutional explanation is to move from personal factors to institutional ones. If the particular people hadn't been there to do it, most likely someone else would have. An institutional theory of Irancontra and the October surprise would explain how and why these activities arose in a society with our political, social, and economic forms. An institutional theory of Karen Silkwood's murder would reveal nuclear industry and larger societal pressures that provoked her murder. An institutional theory of patriarchy explains gender relations in terms of marriage, the church, the market, socialization, etc. An institutional theory of government emphasizes the control and dissemination of information, the dynamics of bureaucracy, and the role of subservience to class, race, and gender interests. Institutions exist. Whenever they have sufficient impact on events, developing an institutional theory makes sense. However, when an event arises from a unique conjuncture of particular people and opportunities, while institutions undoubtedly play a role, it may not be generalized and an institutional theory may be out of place or even impossible to construct. Institutional theories may or may not identify real relationships with real influence on the events they explain. Institutional theories: (a) Claim that the normal operations of some institutions generate the behaviors and motivations leading to the events in question. (b) Address personalities, personal interests, personal timetables, and meetings only as facts about the events needing explanation, not as explanations themselves. Organizational, motivational, and behavioral implications of institutions gain most attention. Particular people, while not becoming mere ciphers, are not accorded priority as causal agents.

-Caveat Lector- from: http://www.aci.net/kalliste/ A HREF="http://www.aci.net/kalliste/"The Home Page of J. Orlin Grabbe/A - Der Fuhrer Invades Yugoslavia NATO Bombs Albania KILL 'EM ALL. LET CNN SORT 'EM OUT. TIRANA, Albania, June 1 (UPI) - NATO warplanes dropped seven bombs on Albania, injuring two Albanian soldiers, the Albanian Telegraphic Agency has reported. NATO admitted some weapons apparently landed on Albanian territory today, and that one of Albania's "pillbox" bunkers had been destroyed. Spokeswoman Monique Tufeli said NATO has no knowledge of anyone being wounded by the errant bombs. The Pentagon said any such bombing would have been directed at the Kosovo-Albania border area, where Yugoslav army troops are battling the Kosovo Liberation Army around Mount Pastric. The bombs fell this afternoon between 2:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. local time (8:30 and 9:30 a.m. EDT), the ATA correspondent in Kukes said. "There was bombardment inside Albanian territory by NATO jets," the report said. At a briefing in Washington today, Pentagon spokesman Maj. Gen. Charles Wald said NATO planes are targeting the Yugoslav army, which has troops in the border zone. "We don't plan to attack inside the Albanian border," Wald said, adding that the actual borderline is very poorly defined. The Albanian report said Xhevdet Shaqiri and an unidentified soldier were wounded in the strong explosions. ATA said it was a shock for local people, who did not expect NATO jets to bomb Albania. Witnesses told ATA the explosion destroyed 10 bunkers and left craters 30 feet deep. Power lines were knocked down near Morini, the border post where hundreds of thousands of Kosovar refugees have entered Albania. Xhuni Myftari, a local spokeswoman for the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, told United Press International that a NATO jet launched seven bombs 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) inside Albania. Albania put its airspace under NATO control before the airstrikes against Yugoslavia began 10 weeks ago. NATO also controls the only Albanian international airport and a few military airports. Albania is a member of NATO's Partnership for Peace program and aims to be a full member. Around Tirana, conspiracy rumors are spreading. Some say NATO is driving Serb troops out of the area to convince refugees it is safe to return to Kosovo. Others say NATO is bombing the border to test the strength of the pillbox bunkers that are ubiquitous reminders of Albania's years of political isolation. UPI, June 1, 1999 Single Currency Euro Hits a Low Against the British Pound European Leaders Say, "Have faith, brother!" EUROPEAN leaders are preparing to issue a "statement of faith" in the single currency after it slipped to its lowest point against the pound yesterday. Sterling soared past three German marks for the first time since last July and breached the level of 10 French francs for the first time since May 4. The euro has fallen by 7.7 per cent against the pound since it was launched at 70.55p at the beginning of the year. It is now worth 65.06p. Its continuing decline thrust the Government plans to join the single currency in 2001 or 2002 to the centre of the campaign for next week's European elections. Tony Blair was forced on to the defensive as William Hague urged him to drop a multi-million pound drive to prepare Britain for joining the euro. The Government has sought to play down the single currency in the run-up to the June 10 elections. But Mr Hague accused Mr Blair and Gordon Brown, the Chancellor, of "burying their heads in the sand" and ignoring the truth about the euro. Francis Maude, the shadow chancellor, said that the Government was "in denial" on the issue. He said: "While more and more of our leading commentators urge caution and pragmatism, Labour continues its headlong rush to scrap the pound." Downing Street hit back by claiming that it would be an "act of folly" to abandon preparations for Britain to be in a position to decide whether to join the euro after the next election. The Prime Minister's spokesman said that Mr Blair had not shifted on the single currency. The spokesman said: "The Government believes it would be in Britain's interests to join a successful single currency. The intention to join is real - and so are the conditions." Today Mr Brown will reaffirm that the Government is pressing ahead with plans that could axe the pound within five years. He will say that Mr Hague's call for the scrapping of the National Changeover Plan - practical preparations for 3.5 million businesses, ranging from the corner shop to multi-national companies - as "the height of irresponsibility. Mr Brown will tell the West Midlands CBI: "Having failed to prepare in any year up to 1997, the Tories now want to ensure that no preparations are made for the euro at all." But there is concern in Government that the slide in the euro is playing into the Tories' hands. Robin Cook, the Foreign Secretary,

The Kosovo government would have been able to negate laws passed by the federal legislature and to conduct its own foreign policy - both rights that neither the US states nor the states of Germany possess. Look at some excerpts of the accord proposal: Chapter 4a, Article I -- "The economy of Kosovo, shall function in accordance with free market principles." It is crystal clear whose interests are being advanced here: Kosovo has substantial mineral resources, including the richest mines for lead, molybdenum, mercury and other metals in all of Europe. Obviously one cannot leave the control over such resources to an independent Yugoslavia. Chapter 5, Article V -- "The CIM [*] shall be the final authority in theater regarding interpretation of the civilian aspects of this Agreement, and the Parties agree to abide by his determinations as binding on all Parties and persons." *Chief of the Implementation Mission Chapter 7, Article XV -- "The KFOR [NATO] commander is the final authority in theater regarding interpretation of this Chapter and his determinations are binding on all Parties and persons." In other words, two foreign commanders would have had the power to overturn elections, shut down organizations and media, and overrule any decisions made by a provincial or the federal governments regarding Kosovo.

Re: [CTRL] Nato:There is always a cost to defeat an evil.[was Waco an evil?]
-Caveat Lector- - Original Message - From: William Hugh Tunstall [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yugoslav war. His stated reason was that Milosevic was a tyrant and presented a threat to the stability of Europe. But I found it odd that a champion of "liberty" would be supporting the indiscriminate bombing of civilian targets and what has to be a destabilization of central Europe for years to come. But why exactly must Yugoslavia be crushed by NATO and the US-EU alliance? I don't think it has anything to do with concern for Milosevic's atrocities. We're not particularly concerned about authoritarian regimes in other parts of the world... so, why Yugoslavia? Let's see, a dozen or so civilian hits [bridges, hospitals, houses etc] out of the tens of thousands of sorties flown, is "indiscriminate bombing of civilian targets"?? If the intention was to target civilians, then NATO has really fucked up, eh? I mean, if *I* wanted to bomb civilians, I'd make sure every Serb town was just a smoking pile of rubble by now. NATO could re-create the Dresden fire-bombing pretty easily, with Beograd as the cinder. Has that happened yet? Why Yugoslavia, and not similar [or worse] genocides around the world? How about: because Yugoslavia is in Europe; because Yugoslavia is where the World War of this century started [phase II was just a continuation of phase I, after re-arming]; because Yugoslav disorders threaten to suck-in the surrounding countries: Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Russia, Hungary, Austria, Italy? Could these be valid factors? I think bombing for democracy, killing for peace, is like fucking for virginity. I think the NATO campaign has been a major fuck-up. The Serb regime fronted by Milosevic should have been taken out years ago, by other means. The oligarchs that support him should have had their foreign accounts frozen, their foreign properties seized. The regime should have been destabilized and discredited, like the op against Allende in Chile. Much could have been done, short of taking military action. By being forced into a position where bombing was the only seeming option, NATO strategists were especially stupid. Which just goes to show that a committee has 19 heads and no brains, eh? If there's an anti-Serb conspiracy, it's pretty incompetent. DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic screeds are not allowed.

For latest informaton email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] SO, JUST WHAT'S REALLY CHANGED? MER - Washington, 2 June: Different styles and temperaments, true. Different supporters as well. And a chance for the Arafat group to take a deep breath and squander abit more time and hope, and for "liberal" American Jews to pretend some more, also true. But when it comes to actual policies...well there the differences are far harder to find. Indeed, just read this article in yesterday's Ha'aretz, Israel's leading newspaper, remembering that what Barak is doing now is precisely the same thing Netanyahu did last year. OK, we know...we've warned you to watch out for this kind of thing before! Good Cops/Bad Cops is a constant theme in Israeli manuevering when it comes to the political theatrics of dealing with both the Arabs and the Americans. Meanwhile, most importantly of all, the settlements continue to expand, the viable land continues to be gobbled up by the occupying power, the demolition of Palestinian homes continues, and for Jewish expansion purposes the borders of eastern Jerusalem have now been extended far into the desert further severing the West Bank with a stretch now annexed to Israel. BARAK MAY "SKIP" TO FINAL STATUS TALKS By David Makovsky, Diplomatic Correspondent [Ha'aretz, 1 June 1999]: Prime Minister-elect Ehud Barak is considering whether to consult with the U.S. and the Palestinians about not implementing the Wye agreement and instead jumping directly to final status talks, Labor Party sources say. According to aides, Barak is planning to omit the implementation of the Wye agreement from the coalition guidelines, although they will mention the Oslo accords. Until now, the Palestinians and the U.S. have been assuming that Barak would immediately implement the last two stages of the Wye accord when he becomes prime minister. In 1995, after he joined the Rabin government, Barak was the only member of the inner circle dealing with peace negotiations who opposed the interim pullbacks put forward in the Oslo II agreement, preferring that everything be left for the final accord. Should Barak hold consultations, they will be based on the premise that his government will have the political clout - which the Netanyahu government lacked - to deliver a final status deal, and hence there is no need for interim steps. According to a Labor Party source, "Barak is considering talking to the U.S. and the Palestinians about not implementing Wye and going straight to final status. He has not made a final decision. "However, even if he does so, he would not unilaterally jump to final status against the wishes of the U.S. and the Palestinians, since [Wye] is an international agreement signed by the government of Israel." The Netanyahu government withdrew from 2 percent of the estimated 13 percent of the territories due to be handed over under the Wye agreement. Barak's thoughts of skipping over the Wye agreement comes at the same time as he has told the National Religious Party (NRP) that settlement activity can continue under certain conditions. "Barak said clearly that he won't freeze settlements," stated NRP head Education Minister Yitzhak Levy. Even if Barak goes ahead with Wye, keeping mention of it out of the government's statement of principles could also make it easier for Barak to woo right-wing elements such as the NRP. "We are worried about the intentions of this new government. During its campaign, the Labor Party said funds would be for schools, not settlements," said Faisal Husseini, the top PLO official in Jerusalem. "To bring into the government parties that support settlement makes us wonder about the intentions of this government.

[CTRL] [Fwd: Konformist: Beast of the Month - May 1999]
Monsanto's aspartame is degraded to methyl alcohol at temperatures about 86 degrees. The alcohol then deteriorates to formaldehyde and formic acid. These chemicals are toxic to the optic nerve and the nervous system in general, especially to the insulating myelin sheath of nerve fibers. The incidence of multiple sclerosis, a demyelinating disease, has now reached epidemic proportions since aspartame has been on the market. Byron Weeks, MD Please send as far and wide as possible. Thanks, Robert Sterling Editor, The Konformist http://www.konformist.com http://www.konformist.com/botm/volume03/botm0599.htm Beast of the Month - May 1999 Monsanto, Korporate Chemical Giant "I yam an anti-Christ..." John Lydon (aka Johnny Rotten) of The Sex Pistols, "Anarchy in the UK" Sometimes, evil is obvious and in your face: take, for example, the NATO bombings of Kosovo, or the school massacre at Littleton, Colorado. At other times, however, evil is secretive and hidden, and when that happens, it often hides in the most unlikely place: out in the open. This is the most popular place to hide for huge multi-national korporations such as Monsanto, The Konformist Beast of the Month, the U.S.-based chemical behemoth whose products are loved and consumed regularly by Americans, despite the fact that even a marginal inspection of their history would reveal a shocking pattern of deceit and contempt for its customers. For those of you who are unaware, Monsanto is best known for introducing the sugar substitute aspartame, which they sell under the brand names of NutraSweet and Equal. Contrary to what the name "NutraSweet" implies, however, aspartame is not nutritious, and is quite unhealthy, having earned the nickname "NutraPoison" from critics. As reported in Alex Constantine's now-classic underground conspiracy expose "Psychic Dictatorship in the USA" (in the aptly-titled chapter devoted to Monsanto and NutraSweet "The Swirl and the Swastika"), as well as the work of noted Monsanto critic Betty Martini of Mission Possible, aspartame has been documented to cause headaches, numbness, fatigue, blurred vision and blindness, heart palpitations, brain lesions and tumors, memory loss, dizziness, muscle spasms, irritability, anxiety attacks, vertigo, seizures, rashes, tachycardia, tinnitus, joint pain, nausea, mood alterations and depression, hearing loss, slurred speech, loss of taste, and insomnia, as well as erode intelligence and short-term memory. It also helps trigger multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, chronic fatigue syndrome, Epstein Barr, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, diabetes, mental retardation, lymphoma, and birth defects. No real surprise here: originally, aspartame was categorized as a biochemical warfare weapon by the Pentagon in a list submitted to Congress. In 1969, Dr. Harry Waisman studied the effects of aspartame on primates, and seven infant monkeys were fed the chemical in milk. One died after 300 days, 5 others had Grand Mal seizures. These findings were deleted from the report to the FDA. MIT researchers surveyed 80 people who suffered brain seizures after eating or drinking products with Aspartame, and the Community Nutrition Institute states: "These 80 cases meets the FDA's own definition of an imminent hazard to the public health, which requires the FDA to expeditiously remove a product from the market." Despite this, NutraSweet was in over 9,000 foods by 1997 and on nearly every restaurant table. The irony is that the two things aspartame is most often marketed for, diabetes and weight loss, it has been shown to not be beneficial for. According to Dr. H. J. Roberts, after summarizing 58 diabetic aspartame reactors, "I now advise ALL patients with diabetes and hypoglycemia to avoid Aspartame products." Further, aspartame triggers a craving for carbohydrates, hardly the reaction wanted for those trying to lose pounds. The FDA has received more than 10,000 consumer complaints over aspartame, approximately 80% of all complaints about food additives since being introduced to the market. If the FDA was an honest organization, NutraSweet would not have ever been approved: fortunately for Monsanto, that isn't the case. Former FDA Commissioner Arthur Hayes overruled his own board of inquiry to approve aspartame (claiming, falsely, that criticism was "anecdotal") then went to work for a public relations firm retained by G.D. Searle (the company which introduced the product that was acquired by Monsanto in 1985.) Federal attorney Sam Skinner was assigned to prosecute Searle for fraudulent tests in their application, but switched sides and went to work for Searle's lawyers instead. Thanks to the compromised nature of the FDA, Monsanto has received a yearly multi-billion dollar license to kill through aspartame, one that it defends relentlessly. They have waged a campaign against stevia, the natural zero-calorie herbal sweetener that is up to 300 times sweeter than sugar, using the FDA - supposedly its

This news conference (public is urged to attend) will feature Ted Gunderson, former Chief Agent-in-Charge of the FBI in Dallas, Memphis and Los Angeles, and Anthony J. Hilder, producer of the ILLUMINATI/CFR expose. Hilder and Gunderson will reveal what they envision as being a series of staged events occuring over the next six months, which will lead the nation towards the installation of martial law, the cancellation of the Constitution and a move towards the acceptance of a One World Government upon the ashes of all national sovereignty. What has this got to do with DREAMLAND (the secret facility) and future wars agains the people of the United States and all sovereign nations of the world? Come and see. This is an invitation for the public to attend and the press to cover this historic event, which is intended to give answers and direction to avert an impending international crisis.

The following was sent to him from a most solid source in his. Colored highlights by me. Hi 'deleted' I hope you are managing to enjoy the holiday in spite of the "unusual" wind, and your panels have not blown away. I wanted to share some curious information with you that came my way a couple days ago when a fellow from Aspen called me to ask some questions about Chem-Trail sightings in this area. He had noticed a posting of mine on one of the Chem-Trail websites and looked up my phone number. He said the aerial spraying of the skies over Aspen lately by military-looking tanker planes has a growing number of folks worried because of the respiratory illnesses seemingly related to them. After we chatted a bit about this, he mentioned that his car had broken down on the highway the other day, and a fellow from Cedaredge stopped to give him a hand. In their conversation Dave, the guy from Aspen, gave the Cedaredge fellow a packet of information about the Chem-Trail issue. Then the Cedaredge fellow told Dave that he had passed a Colorado Dept. of Trans. semi on McClure pass a couple of weeks ago that was being pulled back onto the road after jackknifing. Spilled on the side of the road were many metal signs saying "ROAD CLOSED DUE TO MARTIAL LAW." *{melmorgan adds: the McKlure Pass is an East/West highway going through the Rockies in the vicinity of the area known as 'the four corners'}* e-mail cont's I asked Dave for this fellows name and phone number so I could call him to check this out, and Dave gave it to me. So today I called the fellow, and he asked me to please not mention his name to anyone. He didn't want to be connected in anyway with this story, and he seemed genuinely frightened that Dave had given me his number about this. He said all he saw were the signs, but he didn't want to know anymore. He was trying to stay out of it and not lose any sleep over it. But he admitted that he definitely did see the signs. So, while I was disbelieving at first, I now suspect this probably really happened. It sure isn't very comforting. I wonder if we could get anymore information if we called the CDOT people and asked them if one of their trucks had an accident on McClure pass recently. So being a nosy person I called Al Belick, a retired Navy officer who I had heard interviewed on the radio last week about what our "government" is up to these days. He had worked in various top secret military projects back in the 40's thru the 80's and mentioned that he is agreement with David Icke's work. I asked him a few questions, but he was obviously sick with coughing fits so we only talked a few minutes. He said the coughing was from the chem-trails (are you familiar with the Chem-Trail phenomenon, Brian?)which he had been exposed to in NY recently. He said he believes the chem-trails have to do with a secret immunization program with a nasal Anthrax vaccine, because the government expects some Anthrax attacks soon. He also said that he had heard that martial law was slated for October when we would be in WWIII. (Yikes! This is more than I want to hear!) So that's the scoop for now, friends. I also received my video of the interview of David Icke by Jon Rappoport. I like it and think it would make a thought-provoking public presentation. I made a couple copies if you have a VCR and would like to see it. I was hoping to get up there to swap books with you and check out your solar set-up, but my garden kept me engrossed overtime here.

-Caveat Lector- For more info on 'aspartame' go: http://www.peg.apc.org/~nexus/Aspartame.html The Bitter Truth About Artificial Sweetners. It causes more damage than just to the nervous system and the optic nerves. (This information has been available for over 15 years. Personally, I don't touch the stuff, knowingly, myself). There are now reports showing that people who consume more than one can of diet pop, or the same amount of nurtasweet i.e. aspartame weekly, they are building a serum level that acts in conjunction with HAARP and/or ELF, as a type of conductor; which predisposes the central brain operations, acting as a type of magnifying agent. So, if "they" are using these devices to cause 'passivity'... those who consume artificial sweetners such as nutrasweet, will become more passive than those who do not consume the product. Some even more than others depending upon what 'pulse' is used. If I can relocate these articles showing the evidence I will be sure to pass them on. eagle1 -Original Message- From: Dr Byron Weeks [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wednesday, June 02, 1999 11:09 AM Subject: [CTRL] [Fwd: Konformist: Beast of the Month - May 1999] Monsanto's aspartame is degraded to methyl alcohol at temperatures about 86 degrees.

Sroufe Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 1999 8:11 AM To: Snetnews Subject: SNET: WORST SCHOOLS HAVE FEWEST BOOKS [more spent on drug-abuse programs] - SNETNEWS Mailing List OUR WORST SCHOOLS HAVE FEWEST BOOKS By SUSAN EDELMAN -- -- Many schools where fourth-graders flunked a recent state exam have shabby - if any - libraries, The Post has found. One big reason: The Board of Education, despite its $10 billion budget, spends a state allotment of only $4 per student on school library books. That $4 is only one-fourth the cost of the average hardcover: $16.60. Overall, city schools spend twice as much on drug-abuse programs, $30.41 per kid, as they do on library books and librarians combined - $14.81 per kid. In announcing that 67 percent of the city's schoolkids failed to meet the reading and writing standards of the new fourth-grade English Language Arts exam, State Education Commissioner Richard Mills reminded parents that every child should be reading at least 25 books a year. That's a struggle for youngsters in book-starved schools. "Kids need access to books," said Ray Domanico, education adviser for the Metro Industrial Areas Foundation, a group working in Harlem and other poor communities to beef up school libraries. "They need to be reading a lot. They need to develop a habit of reading. And many don't have books at home, so they really rely on the school library." This week, fourth-graders will face another rigorous test - New York's first statewide math exam. The three-part test will be administered today, Wednesday and Thursday. Last week's reading and writing exam requires kids to analyze all types of literature and compose essays. It was designed to prepare students for more rigorous Regents high-school exams. The library problem deeply concerns some parents and school board members. "Kids have got to have access to rich research materials - and to the thrill of research - to reach those high standards," said Ann McKinnon, a Queens mother who serves on the District 22 school board. City Schools Chancellor Rudy Crew has resorted to panhandling the public to help the Board of Education's poorest performers. Crew sponsors a ''Love to Read" literacy campaign, which recently ran newspaper ads with depressing illustrations of empty, cob-webbed bookshelves. "In New York City, this is as close as most third-graders get to 'Charlotte's Web,'" the ad said, adding that fun books "are absent from too many classrooms." In response, generous New Yorkers have coughed up $250,000 to put about 80 books in each of nearly 1,000 classrooms - including those in the 97 schools on the list of the state's worst performers, and others in extremely poor neighborhoods. "We're trying to get to the most-needy schools first," said Karri Offstein, director of the drive. Meanwhile, even kids are trying to scrape pennies together for books. Third-graders at PS 137 in Bedford-Stuyvesant - where only 25.2 percent of fourth-graders passed the state test - held a penny drive this year to purchase them. They collected a grand total of $120. ''It's not much, but we'll buy paperbacks," said principal Carolyn Key. "You have to get it any way you can." A good library should have at least 10 books per child, experts say. But at PS 108, an average school in South Ozone Park, Queens - where about 32 percent of the fourth-graders passed the state test - the library has only about two books each for its 1,500 kids. "And some books are very old," said principal Gloria Petitto. "We try not to throw out unless we can replace, and there are many books that are not current or attractive to children." "They like the new ones, the ones that are beautifully presented. The old ones don't get the same circulation." At overpacked PS 246 in the Fordham-Kingsbridge section of The Bronx - where 26 percent of the fourth-graders passed the reading test - some teachers fill their classrooms with old books scrounged at flea markets. The school calls a small room with some computers and reference materials its library. "One of the big problems we have here is that parents are afraid to let their kids go out after school to the public library," said principal Frank Gonzalez. http://nypostonline.com/news/9166.htm Bard Visit me at: The Center for Exposing Corruption in the Federal Government http://www.xld.com/public/center/center.htm Federal Government

Thomas" [EMAIL PROTECTED] X DRUDGE REPORT X TUESDAY, JUNE 01, 1999 22:09:58 UTC X SCIENTISTS FEAR ESCAPE OF ANTHRAX FROM RUSSIAN ISLAND American military scientists and intelligence experts have grown concerned that hundreds of tons of anthrax bacteria which was secretly buried on a remote island by the Russians -- may escape! According to publishing sources, the NEW YORK TIMES is planning a Page One exclusive report on Wednesday that runs over 3,000 words about the sludge that is buried on Vozrozhdeniye Island in the Aral Sea. The hundreds of tons of anthrax bacteria -- enough to destroy the world many times over -- was buried by the Russians in stainless-steel canisters in the late 80's after Washington learned the Soviet Union was producing germs for weapons that the world had banned. Russian scientists thought they had destroyed the anthrax -- mixing the bacteria with bleach -- but recent tests show that some of the spores are still alive -- and potentially deadly, the TIMES reports. Because the Aral Sea is shrinking, "anthrax island" has grown from 77 square miles to 770 and will soon be connected to the mainland. Experts now fear "the spores could escape, stirred up by carriers like rodents, lizards and birds." "Central Asian and American officials fear that, as access to the island eases, the buried anthrax could be used by terrorists to make more of the deadly agent." Developing on Wednesday...

Hsing-Hsing, 28, is seriously ill with kidney dysfunction that may not be reversible, the WASHINGTON POST will report on Wednesday. Sonograms and a blood samples reveal that the panda that was given to the United States as a gift by the people of China during the Nixon administration is now suffering from "severe kidney dysfunction" and is in very serious condition. X X X X X X DRUDGE REPORT X TUESDAY, JUNE 01, 1999 02:41:22 UTC X ART BELL FIGHTS BACK; LAWSUIT AGAINST SCHOOL MAY TURN UGLY **Update** The lawsuit filed by the son of radio talkshow sensation Art Bell against the Nye County School District and former substitute teacher Brian Lepley, who has the AIDS virus and is serving a life prison sentence for sexually assaulting Bell, may turn ugly. But Bell is determined to fight. The crime against Art Bell's son was the reason Bell dramatically left the air last October, the DRUDGE REPORT revealed over the weekend. But Brian Lepley has said he believes he was prosecuted the first time around for the crime of being gay in a small town and having a disease that terrifies his neighbors. Lepley: "I was described as carrying death in my blood. This is condemning a man because of his lifestyle." During closing arguments in Lepley's trial the prosecutor told the jury: "We all remember what happened to Sodom and Gomorrah. Some people think America owes them an apology." During his trial, Lepley, 34, admitted to having sex contact with Bell, then 16, but adamantly denied he did anything criminal other than occasionally buy underage boys alcohol or bring them marijuana. There was one oral sex encounter which resulted in the assault conviction and life sentence. Lepley insisted his contact with Bell was a consensual act, and Bell did admit during the trial that he consented, but prosecutors argued and convinced the jury beyond a shadow of doubt that Bell was coerced through both intimidation and intoxication. "The boy didn't know where he was," the prosecutor said. "He thought Lepley could beat him up, so when he was asked for total consent, the boy said 'yes'." During Lepley's trail, five boys, whose ages range from 16 to 18, testified that Lepley's attended their parties, bringing beer and marijuana. One boy said that on May 16, 1997, Lepley took extra care to make sure Bell smoked an excessive amount of marijuana and consumed a large amount of alcohol. [The ASSOCIATED PRESS reported at the time that the boy said he was taken May 16 to Tecopa Hot Springs, California, bound in chains.] Lepley insisted he told the teen-agers about his HIV status before any sex. Prior to his conviction, he was the head of a support group for people with the AIDS virus. As an activist, he said he would be the last person to have unprotected sex. But during his trial, a friend of Lepley's, who is also HIV positive, testified that Lepley told him he was having sex with the two boys and asked

-Caveat Lector- What gives us the right to kill Serbians? We're morally superior? We're a superpower and we can kill whoever we want. Serbian lives are worth less than American/NATO lives? The end (getting rid of Milosevic) justifies the means (the murder of civilians)? OKWe're bombing for reasons based on geopolitik. Milosevic is a loose cannon...a potential bad boy who will make problems for all of our "allies" in the area. So, the way to handle Milosevic is to establish a military presence in the Balkans. We'll be the cop on the beat keeping everyone from slaughtering one another. And just to make sure that everyone behaves...we'll arm everyone to the teethback one side (the Albanian "freedom fighters") rather than the wicked Serbs. Great. Sounds like a winning policy!!! I know this might seem like an absurd ideabut why don't we stay out of it and mind our own damned business. Why is it in America's longterm interests to play policeman in the Balkans?

His stated reason was that Milosevic was a tyrant and presented a threat to the stability of Europe. But I found it odd that a champion of "liberty" would be supporting the indiscriminate bombing of civilian targets and what has to be a destabilization of central Europe for years to come. But why exactly must Yugoslavia be crushed by NATO and the US-EU alliance? I don't think it has anything to do with concern for Milosevic's atrocities. We're not particularly concerned about authoritarian regimes in other parts of the world... so, why Yugoslavia? Let's see, a dozen or so civilian hits [bridges, hospitals, houses etc] out of the tens of thousands of sorties flown, is "indiscriminate bombing of civilian targets"?? If the intention was to target civilians, then NATO has really fucked up, eh? I mean, if *I* wanted to bomb civilians, I'd make sure every Serb town was just a smoking pile of rubble by now. NATO could re-create the Dresden fire-bombing pretty easily, with Beograd as the cinder. Has that happened yet? Why Yugoslavia, and not similar [or worse] genocides around the world? How about: because Yugoslavia is in Europe; because Yugoslavia is where the World War of this century started [phase II was just a continuation of phase I, after re-arming]; because Yugoslav disorders threaten to suck-in the surrounding countries: Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Russia, Hungary, Austria, Italy? Could these be valid factors? I think bombing for democracy, killing for peace, is like fucking for virginity. I think the NATO campaign has been a major fuck-up. The Serb regime fronted by Milosevic should have been taken out years ago, by other means. The oligarchs that support him should have had their foreign accounts frozen, their foreign properties seized. The regime should have been destabilized and discredited, like the op against Allende in Chile. Much could have been done, short of taking military action. By being forced into a position where bombing was the only seeming option, NATO strategists were especially stupid. Which just goes to show that a committee has 19 heads and no brains, eh? If there's an anti-Serb conspiracy, it's pretty incompetent. DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic screeds are not allowed.

Massachusetts 02178 PRINTING HISTORY Harcourt, Brace edition published 1952 Free Enterprise edition published 1958 American Opinion edition published 1961 The Americanist Library edition published 1965 170pps out-of-print --[12]-- CHAPTER TWELVE How Russia Got U.S. Treasury Plates I returned to Great Falls, for the last time as an Army Officer, on June 13th, since I had just been replaced by Lieutenant George Walewski Lashinski. I was due to speak in Omaha on the 16th, and this was my last chance to say good-by to my friends, including Colonel Kotikov. On a personal level, I had always been very friendly with the Colonel; he was one of the most unusual people I had ever known, and he had many likable traits as a human being. It was only when politics intervened, or orders came to him from above, that his attitude and manners became difficult. During our farewell talk, Colonel Kotikov mentioned the "money plane" which had crashed in Siberia and had been replaced. I asked what he meant by "money plane." The U.S. Treasury, he explained, was shipping engraving plates and other materials to Russia, so that they could print the same occupation money for Germans as the United States was printing. I was certain he was mistaken. I was quite sure that never in history had we let money plates go out of the country. How could there be any control over their use? "You must mean, Colonel," I said, "that we have printed German occupation money for Russia and shipped the currency itself." "No, no," he replied. He insisted that plates, colored inks, varnish, tint blocks, sample paperthese and similar materials had gone through Great Falls in May in two shipments of five C-47s each. The shipments had been arranged on the highest level in Washington, and the planes had been loaded at the National Airport. I was still incredulous, but I was impressed enough to pass these remarks on to Colonel Bernard C. Hahn, the Air Force Inspector who had come on as a result of my trip to Washington. Not until 1950 did I learn all the particulars about these money plates. The full story has never been released to the general public, and only a few people in Washington seem to know the details of this Lend-Lease scandal. I see no reason why every citizen should not know how his public servants handled such a grave matter in wartime. The sum of money which we lost in redeeming the marks which the Russians rolled off their presses, with no accountability whatever, appears to have been $250,000,000! It was not until September, 1946, that we put a stop to the siphoning of our treasury by refusing to redeem further marks. By this time the plates had been in Russian hands over two years. At the closed hearing in June 1947 Senator Styles Bridges, chairman of the Committee on Appropriations, inquired of Assistant Secretary of War Howard C. Petersen: "Does Russia still have the plates, so far as you know?" Mr. Petersen: As far as I know, they still have the plates. Chairman Bridges. And as far as you know, are they still printing the currency? Mr. Petersen: As far as I know, they are still printing the currency. Chairman Bridges: And has there been any protest from this Government endeavoring to stop them? Mr. Petersen: There have been strenuous efforts from the Allied Control Council in Berlin to obtain an accounting from the Russians as to the amount of Allied military marks which they have issued. Those efforts have been unsuccessful.[1] Senator Bridges and Mr. Petersen had previously had this exchange: Chairman Bridges: Was there any action taken by the War Department to restrict the number of notes issued by the Russians? Mr. Petersen: The answer of the War Department is "No." Chairman Bridges. And, as far as you know, was there any action taken by the State or the Treasury Department to restrict Russia in the number of notes she would issue? Mr. Petersen: To my knowledge, none.[2] Mr. Petersen later stated: "I know when we stopped the use of them (the Allied marks) in Germany. It was September 1946." Here is the exchange between Senator William F. Knowland of California and Assistant Secretary Petersen: Senator Knowland. As I understand, there are $380,000,000 more currency redeemed than there were appropriations for? Mr. Petersen: That is correct Senator Knowland. And you expect eventually that that amount will be cut down to $160,000,000; is that right? Mr. Petersen: Yes ... Senator Knowland: Now what I would like to ask is, what is the amount outstanding as of, let us say, the end of last month (May, 1947)? Mr. Petersen: That is $340,000,000.[3] The hearing continued for two days. At its end there were, 141 printed pages of oral testimony, and in addition 31 pages of State Department documents, 59 pages of Treasury Dopartment documents, and 474

They think that getting away from the cults is as simple as making the choice to leave. I know better Everyone raised in it and entrenched in the way I was knows better If you were raised in a cult, leaving is the most painful and difficult thing you will ever do. Not only does the cult come after you most of the time, but you have to worry about your own personalities beings manipulated and tricked into returning. And the isolation and pain you feel as you leave is unbearable. In order to protect themselves, survivors who were raised in cults have to give up their entire family and all their friends to go into a world that, overall, doesn't believe them or support their life changes in a healing manner The cult I was raised in has a history. People who are in it today are the modern players of a religion that has been passed on for centuries. My abusers were people. They were not monsters, even though what they did to me was monstrous. Sometimes I saw their aching and longing for change. My cult-boss once told me, I know what we are doing is wrong, but we don't know how to stop it." Cult abusers are not there because ritual abuse is fun. Many of them are there because they can see no way out. Many violent cults keep their members by telling them lies that make members feel self-hating and helpless. The lies are difficult to differentiate from truth because the person telling the lies has been brainwashed. Everyone in the cult believes the lies to be truth, and the insanity is passed on from generation to generation as unquestionable wisdom. I support survivors who hate their abusers. I respect survivors who swear to themselves they will never turn out like the people who hurt them. I do not want to deny survivors their right to feel angry. This anger is justified; it is what gives us the power to change. But I also want people to understand that for too many survivors, ritual abuse victimization does not end in childhood. CHILDREN WHO ARE TRAINED TO BE ABUSIVE Cults that ritually abuse children set up situations in which children are forced to molest and sometimes kill other children. Ritually abused children are drugged, lied to, emotionally tormented, and manipulated with threats until they commit the violent acts Children who react to their orders with fear or sorrow are taunted and humiliated by other group members. The children have no physical escape from the room in which the violence occurs. They have no choice but to comply with the demands of their abusers. Ritually abused children in these situations must adapt. They stop feeling their initial emotions of fear and grief and replace these appropriate emotions with behavior modeled by their abusers. They learn to laugh at victims who writhe in pain. They make fun of people who are crying or afraid. They adopt the belief systems of their abusers in order to avoid more pain. These children are not bad. They are not evil. They are in a situation that they cannot change, and they do whatever they have to in order to survive. If the children continue to be exposed to the cult environment, they grow up to act abusively in cults. Because they were raised in cults where they were forced to abuse others, these trained abusers' minds are no longer their own. Even though they abuse children in rituals-with no visible coercion-they are still controlled by the cult. All the years of torture, training, and manipulation are the unseen coercion that makes adult cult members feel helpless to change. Here is one personality's memory of the process: I never abused animals or children outside of the cult experience. Most of my rage and hatred was vented on the men I dated. I would fantasize about killing them, but I never acted violently. I was afraid of being thrown in jail. I was afraid of people hating me. My cult deliberately programmed me never to be violent outside of the cult experience. This kept me from giving away any secrets about the cult. It made me able to hold respectable roles in the community. I never remembered the ritual abuse in my daily life. If the cult wanted to talk to me, they had to access me using triggers to speak to my cult personalities. I was primarily involved in cult activities that took place in the middle of the night. Getting ready for a ritual was like going to the bathroom in the middle of the night. I woke up in a seemingly hypnotic state. I wasn't excited. I didn't feel anything. I was a zombie acting on orders. Once I arrived at a ritual, I felt at home. I felt a final sense of relief and belonging, that I no longer had to hide anything or pretend I was something I was not. it felt great to finally be in my cult personalities, and I
[CTRL] Recommended Reading
-Caveat Lector- I have just finished two books which ought to be required reading for every member of CTRL. (1)*Cryptonomicon*, by Neal Stephenson, Avon Books, 1999, hc; $13.75 at Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0380973464/qid%3D928339196/002-0162189-0076639 Neal Stephenson's writing has been described as "Pynchon on speed." *Cryptonomicon* is no exception. The exceedingly complex plot jumps between World War Two and the very near future. It revolves around a highly sophisticated encryption technique developed by an eccentric genius working for Allied intelligence, and the involvement of his grandson in a scheme to create an offshore "data haven" in Southeast Asia. You may (in fact probably will) find your head spinning, but you will definitely keep reading... CTRL members will discover a great many hints about connections and interconnections which lead in some *very* interesting directions. (2)*Icefire*, by Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens, Pocket Books, 1999, pb; $5.59 at Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/067101403X/qid=928339881/sr=1-2/002-0162189-0076639 If this book were just a techno-thriller in the Tom Clancy style, it would worth reading. But it is somewhat more. On one level *Icefire* is the story of a Nuclear Emergency Search Team (NEST) officer and a Greenpeace-type environmentalist as they race to head off a global catastrophe. A mysterious conspiracy (whose identity becomes clear as the plot evolves) plants six nuclear devices on the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica. When the bombs go off, the ice slams into the ocean at 500 miles an hour, and a monster wave is born that will soon threaten everything in the Pacific basin. I would recommend the book just for the excitement...but there's more. Of particular interest to CTRL will be the segments dealing with (are you ready for this?) HAARP and the Aurora, including a fascinating and quite plausible account of what flying the Aurora would be like. The book's authors obviously have some sort of inside information, because their detail rings *very* true. Bob = Robert F.

One big reason: The Board of Education, despite its $10 billion budget, spends a state allotment of only $4 per student on school library books. That $4 is only one-fourth the cost of the average hardcover: $16.60. Overall, city schools spend twice as much on drug-abuse programs, $30.41 per kid, as they do on library books and librarians combined - $14.81 per kid. In announcing that 67 percent of the city's schoolkids failed to meet the reading and writing standards of the new fourth-grade English Language Arts exam, State Education Commissioner Richard Mills reminded parents that every child should be reading at least 25 books a year. That's a struggle for youngsters in book-starved schools. "Kids need access to books," said Ray Domanico, education adviser for the Metro Industrial Areas Foundation, a group working in Harlem and other poor communities to beef up school libraries. "They need to be reading a lot. They need to develop a habit of reading. And many don't have books at home, so they really rely on the school library." This week, fourth-graders will face another rigorous test - New York's first statewide math exam. The three-part test will be administered today, Wednesday and Thursday. Last week's reading and writing exam requires kids to analyze all types of literature and compose essays. It was designed to prepare students for more rigorous Regents high-school exams. The library problem deeply concerns some parents and school board members. "Kids have got to have access to rich research materials - and to the thrill of research - to reach those high standards," said Ann McKinnon, a Queens mother who serves on the District 22 school board. City Schools Chancellor Rudy Crew has resorted to panhandling the public to help the Board of Education's poorest performers. Crew sponsors a
Re: [CTRL] . . . [socialists exposed]
-Caveat Lector- The problem is, we do have an educated society, known as the 'elitists'. Those with money and affluence have been allowed to rule the roost. There are some who do came from poverty and depravation to make the honors, but this is only allowed by the powers that be. A showing so as to "prove" that the 'elitists' are not being prejudiced or 'hate' mongers. What a nice storefront for them. Why do you think they track a student's performance? Used to be tracking did not start until 9th grade, but now they start 'making you what THEY want you to be' by the time you hit 1st grade. Influencing your choices of career ideals, turning your interests to specialized areas by high school, instead of teaching basic math, reading, history, and english; not leaving the specializing to college, where it should be. Rather, they want to know early, what you can do for your country in terms of productivity. If you can't produce, they don't want you... and consequently encourage depravity, quitting school and becoming a penal statistic, or a failure, working by the sweat of the brow to earn minimum wage; or they teach you that you don't have to work, just live off welfare. The elitist, socialist have a grip on this country. Though it be by many names, the beast is devouring whom it will. Starting with our children first. Forming that perfect society of elitists and outcasts... they wish to agree with THEIR NWO and soon to come despot. If you can't produce, or show the potential to produce, they just 'can' you... and that which you described, becomes reality at the lower levels. Do the elitists care? No, and hell no! They are happy you are there. One less piece of competition for them. No wonder capitalism is going to hell in a handbasket. eagle1 -Original Message- From: William Hugh Tunstall [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wednesday, June 02, 1999 12:49 PM Subject: Re: [CTRL] billions for pentagon contractors-pittance for school books[socialists exposed] -Caveat Lector- Of course education is not a priority in America.

[CTRL] Skull of alien-human hybrid found?
-Caveat Lector- From: Dan S [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.the-times.co.uk/news/pages/tim/99/06/02/timintint01016.html?999 - June 2 1999 Forensic scientists have reconstructed a child's face from an ancient Mexican skull which some researchers claim could have been an alien-human hybrid. The StarChild's haunting features, eerily like the huge-eyed aliens described after UFO abduction cases, are online at www.AlienUFOart.com/Forensicfaces.htm The misshapen skull is believed to belong to a girl of five or six, whose bones were found with her mother's in a mineshaft south of Chihuahua, Mexico, around 1925. The child's body was buried, with one hand thrust out of its shallow grave to grasp the mother's hand. The skulls were found by a teenage girl, and handed to scientists. More than 30 specialists, including university anthropologists, geneticists, radiologists and pathologists, and at least 15 psychics, have examined the relics. All agree the Indian mother was a healthy human. About the child - no one knows. Using police techniques, forensic artist William McDonald reconstructed both faces. "I've never seen a skull like this," he admitted. "It is so radically deformed or mutated that the temporal portions actually face forwards instead of to the sides." McDonald favours the theory that the child was deformed, but adds the brain capacity exceeded an adult human's by nearly 200cc. Fellow investigator Lloyd Pye agrees that the conventional view must be that this little girl was born with a horrific deformity. At www.Starchildproject.com he also advances the alien theory. Shoshonean myths tell of beings from the heavens who descended to mate with Earth women. When the children were weaned, the Star Beings returned to harvest their semi-human crop. Pye believes DNA testing could prove the alien hybrid theory. Until funding can be raised, however, the world can only guess. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Looking to expand your world? http://www.onelist.com ONElist has nearly 160,000 e-mail communities from which to chose!

[CTRL] Serbian Cartoonist: Poison Ivy

The other day we met Zoran Jovic-Djavo, a drummer in a band called NUP, and an author of several mini comics ( working under the pseudonym of Letac). He was drafted, and is settled with the Antiaircraft Defenses in the farms near his native village. He gave me a funny souvenir - - a piece of one of the bombs that fell near the village. Djavo said that one of the officers noticed that he was searching through the remains of the bomb. "What do you looking for ?" - asked the officer. "I would like to have a little souvenir",said Djavo. "The most interesting part is the wing. If you want, take it. But be careful, they said that some of the bombs are radio-active". The officer even helped to dismantle the "wings". But soon Djavo's wrist became red, and he started to scratch...Was it because of the radioactivity!? He rushed to the officer in panic, and showed him his wrist all red, and the officer started to shout:"Don't come any closer!!! You are CONTAMINATED"!!! But just a minute later, he started to laugh, and explained that it was a trick: the officer has scratched Djavo's wrist with the poison ivy! A military humor. While speaking to Djavo about his experiences, one of the most eerie moments that he remembered was when the NATO aircraft on one occasion has lightened everything beneath , in order to spot the target. The night landscape was lightened so suddenly and from a very powerful source of light, and it was almost as shocking as the bombing itself. Another friend, Damir Smit, who is running a comics workshop in Subotica, is the only male person that we know who succeeded to go out of the country during the war... After a lot of efforts, he was given permission from the Army Headquarters to go to Slovenia and take part in the Art Festival, called Break 21. While on his way home, Damir stayed in Hungary for a few days. "Budapest is full of people who are speaking Serbian" - he said. "It is only the latest of many waves of war immigrants from Serbia, mostly young people trying to avoid draft"... I was also informed that Triceps, one of the most famous alternative artists in Budapest, has set an exhibition in his underground gallery, with enlarged pages of my "Life Under Sanctions" strip, placed behind the ancient bars in the basement ambient... I saw the photos, it looks very interesting. Wish that I was able to go to Budapest and chat with Triceps...We are all the prisoners of the situation here.

Date: Sat, 29 May 1999 00:11:23 +0200 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Priority: 3 MIME-Version: 1.0 Status: Sasa Rakezic P.F. 163 26000 Pancevo Yugoslavia (Serbia) [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] May 27th 1999 Hello to all! After the snail mail from abroad stopped being delivered to Serbia, I almost stopped visiting a post office to check out my p.o. box. And when I finally went there to check it out, it turned out that a book, ordered before this madness began, has somehow succeeded to get through! I ordered it from Bud Plant's catalogue, and it is a handsome "MAD about the Fifties" volume, with all the classical strips from the early Mad magazine. Hooray! A new book on my table. Can't believe it! All those genuine concepts by H. Kurtzman! Glorious stuff by Elder, Wolverton, Wood, Davis and all the others American satire from the 50's was so sharp, so beautifully executed. We should all learn from it, for many years to come. It is a great literature to read under the light of the candle during the black-outs May 28th 1999 Yesterday, the power went off shortly after the booming sound of the bomber plane was heard over our neighborhood. NATO has destroyed some of the important power plants near Belgrade. The power comes off and on again, every now and then. Few hours ago, NATO have bombed a garbage dump near Pristina, with four projectiles. Whatever the real target was, you can add the garbage dump to the list of the bombed places and objects in Serbia. Of course, everybody here is talking about Milosevic being indicted for war crimes...Just in the moment when some agreement for the halt of the military action in Kosovo was about to be settled through the diplomacy, lead by Russians!...It seems that NATO, which has a very strong influence on the policy of the War Crimes Tribunal in Hague, simply does not want to appear as ready to make any compromises, and is more eager to continue with the pressure against the "enemy". Is it even more important than to stop the suffering of both Albanian and Serbian civil population? I've been discussing these things with Donna Barr, who is able to very sharply analyze and understand the military logic, as you can see from her well-researched comics set inside the WW2 milieu. "There is a lot of media talk about Milosevic "cracking." , said Donna. "This is American media-talk for "He is willing to negotiate." In the American culture, there are only complete winners or complete losers; one is not allowed to compromise. It is a sign of "weakness." Many of our people suffer from stress-illness because they cannot "win completely" all the time. And do you know what the British said? That Milosovic has "back up generators," and if "he" is choosing to use "his" generators for the military instead of the hospitals, then it's "his" headache. You are no longer a country to NATO -- you are one person. YOU are all to be treated as that one person. And repeatedly we see oil refineries burning. This is an OIL question again". Speaking of compromises, it is something quite unpopular within a military logic in just any country... There is a joke, that I heard here in Serbia, about Milosevic writing a letter to Clinton: " Dear Bill, we can't take it any more. It's about time for you to surrender" That's all for now, Sasa DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic screeds are not allowed.

[CTRL] Case History of Fraud in Credit Card Industry
-Caveat Lector- Providian is on the cutting edge of the credit card industry's 'bad habits.' "The question now is whether Providian can maintain its break-neck growth if it [doesn't deceive] in its marketing." CREDIT GIANT ACCUSED OF PILING ON CHARGES Employees say Providian urged them to mislead by Sam Zuckerman San Francisco Chronicle, June 1, 1999 Providian Financial Corp., the San Francisco credit card giant that is under investigation for possible unfair business practices, instructed its telemarketers to engage in high-pressure, misleading sales tactics, according to more than a dozen current and former employees who spoke to The Chronicle. Many complaints that have been lodged against the company involve the sale of add-on products -- such as credit insurance and memberships in auto clubs, buying clubs and discount drug plans -- to people who said they did not want them. "When I first started working there, I thought the company was doing good things for customers by helping them rebuild their credit," said Kim Williams, who worked for 1 1/2 years as a customer service representative in Providian's San Francisco headquarters. But Williams quit last year, in part because she felt bad about pushing products that she considered useless. "I never thought they were worth anything," she said. "I thought we were just bilking customers out of their money." Providian specializes in issuing credit cards to people other lenders had dismissed as deadbeats. Its cardholders include people who previously had trouble paying their bills, older people who never had credit cards before and widowed or divorced people without credit histories in their own names. The San Francisco district attorney's office is investigating Providian's sales and collection practices. A series of civil lawsuits charge the company with unfair and deceptive business practices. The Better Business Bureau has received 850 complaints from Providian customers nationwide. Among the gripes is that the company is slow to post customer payments, which generates late fees. From 1996 to 1998, Providian's revenues from late and over-limit charges, add-on products, and other customer fees grew 470 percent to $703.5 million, while total revenues grew only 120 percent, to $2.4 billion. In response to the criticism, Providian stresses that it obeys all consumer laws and regulations, and guarantees its customers "100 percent satisfaction." "We help people to build, protect and responsibly use credit," said company spokesman Marc Loewenthal. Providian wants "an active and lasting customer relationship," he said. 'ENHANCED CUSTOMER SATISFACTION' Last week, after Providian's stock had fallen by one-third on news of the district attorney's investigation, Providian announced an "enhanced customer satisfaction program." Among other steps, Providian said, it will reverse late fees and cancel sales of add-on products if consumers had not intended to buy them. It also hired Ernst Young to review its payment processing procedures. The company said its actions were not an admission that it had deceived customers. Its stock rose 15 percent after the announcement. MAINTAINING GROWTH The question now is whether Providian can maintain its break-neck growth if it reins in its marketing. "Their whole way of selling was to mislead the customers," said Linda Sherry of the San Francisco advocacy group Consumer Action. "If they were to clean up the act, they might not sell as much." Jack Weiss, a 72-year-old San Francisco printing salesman, said he got a credit card from Providian in 1996, although he never bought anything with it. In 1997, Providian sent him an unsolicited membership in its DrivePro auto club. "They sent me this DrivePro card that I didn't ask for and charged me $99 for it," said Weiss, who was already a member of another auto club. Weiss said he called and wrote Providian, but was unable to get the charge reversed. Meanwhile, he was racking up late fees on the money Providian said he owed for DrivePro. Weiss tried to cancel his credit card account, he said, but the company continued to bill him for his outstanding balance. Finally, it hired a collection agency. "My experience with them was dreadful," he said. Providian said it could not discuss Weiss' case because of privacy rules. PRESSURE TO SELL Current and former Providian employees who spoke with The Chronicle said they were under fierce pressure to sell add-on products, especially "credit protection." "That was our big moneymaker," said one former customer service specialist who asked not to be identified. "The amount sold was tremendous, and the claims on it were so few." Many credit card companies sell credit insurance, which provides benefits to cardholders who become disabled or unemployed. Most programs pay the customer's minimum payment and let them
[CTRL] Bloodgate -- Linda Tripp, Vince Foster
-Caveat Lector- LINDA TRIPP CONNECTED TO CANADA'S BLOOD SCANDAL 31 January 1999, The Ottawa Citizen by Mark Kennedy Clinton accuser sought answers but was denied access to files, she says The web of intrigue in the Arkansas prison blood scandal has grown to include a more famous name: Linda Tripp. PTantalizing new evidence that has surfaced on the story --now dubbed "Bloodgate" by Americans who regularly discuss it through Internet chat groups -- has sparked even more questions about what U.S. President Bill Clinton knew about tainted blood shipped to Canada in the early 1980s. Mrs. Tripp, a key figure in the Monica Lewinsky affair, said in a sworn deposition this month that in the course of her duties in the White House several years ago, she once took a phone call from someone about a "tainted blood issue." When Mrs. Tripp tried to obtain more information on the subject from a White House computer data base, she was denied access to the files. The latest information stems from a sworn deposition Mrs. Tripp gave Jan. 13 in a civil lawsuit. She was called as a witness in a class-action suit filed by White House employees of the Bush and Reagan administrations who allege their FBI files were wrongly accessed by the Clinton White House. Ms. Tripp is best known as the woman who befriended Ms. Lewinsky and secretly tape-recorded their phone conversations in which Ms. Lewinsky revealed her sexual affair with Mr. Clinton. What's not as widely known is that before then, she was one of only two holdovers from the Bush presidency and worked in a key position -- as executive assistant to Bernard Nussbaum, the chief White House counsel. Working in the same office at the time was deputy counsel Vince Foster who committed suicide in 1993. Mr. Foster, a boyhood friend of Mr. Clinton's, was one of the president's most trusted advisers. As a corporate lawyer in Arkansas, he worked in the same firm as Hillary Rodham Clinton and they became close colleagues. Ms. Tripp was among the last persons to see Mr. Foster alive. She brought him a hamburger, along with some candy, from the White House cafeteria at lunch time on July 20, 1993. Mr. Foster ate at his desk, got up, told Ms. Tripp "I'll be back," and drove to a Northern Virginia park overlooking the Potomac River, where he shot himself. Last fall, as part of a series of investigative stories, the Citizen revealed two developments that prompted new questions about Mr. Foster's knowledge of how a private firm, with the consent of the Arkansas government, collected inmates' plasma and shipped it to Canada. The Citizen reported details that suggest Mr. Foster tried to protect the firm more than a decade before in a lawsuit. As well, the New York Post had recently reported that Mr. Foster may have been worried about the tainted-blood scandal (which was then just emerging as a contentious issue in Canada) when he killed himself. Mr. Clinton was governor of Arkansas when the Canadian blood supply was contaminated in the mid-'80s. He was generally familiar with the operations of now-defunct Health Management Associates (HMA), the Arkansas firm that was given a contract by Mr. Clinton's own state administration to provide medical care to prisoners. In the process, HMA was also permitted by the state to collect prisoners' blood and sell it elsewhere. HMA's president in the mid-1980s, Leonard Dunn, was a personal friend of Mr. Clinton's and a political ally. Later, Mr. Dunn was a Clinton appointee to the Arkansas Industrial Development Commission and he was among the senior members of Mr. Clinton's 1990 gubernatorial re-election team. The contaminated prisoners' plasma is believed to have been infected with HIV and hepatitis C. Any information linking Mr. Foster to HMA and its blood program is bound to raise more questions about how much Mr. Clinton knew. The New York Post reported that a day or two after Mr. Foster died, someone called a little-known phone number at the White House counsel's office where Mr. Foster worked.

-Caveat Lector- UFO Filmed by Mexican Television. Itar-Tass 01-JUN-99 MEXICO, June 1 (Itar-Tass) - Mexican television has shown at least three UFOs hanging over the city of Puebla southeast of the Mexican capital. Judging by the film shown by "Atsteka" television the UFOs were visible in the sky for around five minutes. The phenomenon had been watched on Monday morning by dozens of people who said that the UFOs, whose size was described by onlookers as rather large, were lined up in space eight kilometers wide. The UFOs had a silver colour, a round shape and emanated a powerful light. One of them quickly disappeared, while the other two moved southwest, flying at a very high speed. Mexican Civil Aviation officials have not given any explanation of the incident yet. ere/ast -- Justice does exist in the world, whether people choose to practice it or not.

[CTRL] Which Worse?
-Caveat Lector- From OriginalSources.CoM Picture: Original Sources Scroll -- -- Is Polygamy a Worse Crime than Adultery? Would Men Rush Out to Get Married if Polygamy were Legal? By Mary Mostert, Analyst, Original Sources (http://www.originalsources.com) June 2, 1999 As the world teeter-totters on the verge of World War III, and the President of the United States bombs and kills civilians in Yugoslavia, what did Geraldo Rivera choose to become incensed about yesterday? A case in Utah involving a polygamist which brought the wire services and foreign film crews scurrying to Utah to cover the trial, that's what. Amazing! Here is the man who supported President Clinton's "privacy" right to treat women any way he chose to treat them - even up to and including rape, in the case of Juanita Broaddrick, but last night was demanding that the State of Utah INSTANTLY do something about a reported 25,000 cases of polygamy in the state. In fact, his outrage was so comical that the Salt Lake City KSL-TV guest on his show laughed at him. The case that took Rivera's mind off the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia (which he supports) to polygamy (which he doesn't support) was that of David O. Kingston who is accused to having had sex with one of his 15 wives - the 16 year old daughter of his brother, John Daniel Kingston. The opening of the trial took place yesterday which brought wire service reporters and foreign film crews running to Utah. The case broke open last summer when the girl showed up at a rural gas station just south of the Idaho border and said her father beat her for disavowing the marriage. David Kingston has rejected a plea bargain and insists he is not guilty of three felony counts of incest and one count of unlawful sexual contact, said his attorney, Stephen McCaughey. When the story broke, Governor Mike Leavitt seemed to step on a political mine field when he, the descendant of a polygamous Mormon family, commented that polygamy may be protected as a religious freedom. The Utah State Constitution is the only State Constitution in the United States which specifically outlaws polygamy - an interesting situation since it was the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that practiced plural marriage as a religious doctrine and which fought for the right to practice it all the way to the Supreme Court and lost. So, how did Utah became the only state in the union to specifically prohibit plural marriage? Well, that statement was REQUIRED by the Utah Enabling Act of 1894, which was passed by the Fifty-third U.S. Congress in clear violation of the U.S. Constitution. The Fifty-third Congress passed a law which REQUIRED the Mormon Church to abandon a religious doctrine. That was before the Supreme Court decided that the First Amendment to the Constitution, which states that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press..." disallowed ANY government involvement with religion. The Utah Enabling Act stated, that "no inhabitant of said State (Utah) shall ever be molested in person or property on account of his or her mode of religious worship, provided that polygamous or plural marriages are forever prohibited." The Utah Enabling Act actually had no impact on the Mormons, because four years before, in 1890, the Church President at the time, Wilford Woodruff had issued a declaration stating, "Inasmuch as laws have been enacted by Congress forbidding plural marriages, which laws have been pronounced constitutional by the court of last resort (the Supreme Court), I hereby declare my intention to submit to those laws and to use my influence with the members of the Church over which I preside to have them do likewise." From that day to this, that has been the doctrine of the Church. In fact, even in countries of Africa and Asia where polygamy is legal, those practicing polygamy cannot be baptized in the Church. So, contrary to Rivera's insistent effort to somehow involve the Mormons in the Kingston case, it actually has no impact one way or the other on the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Shortly after Leavitt's comment a storm of protest from feminist groups broke over the Governor's head. He then clarified his position by saying that after speaking with prosecutors, he had concluded polygamy isn't pursued in court not because of religious freedom but because - as with fornication, sodomy and adultery - it is difficult to do so. He cited three reasons: lack of proof, since most polygamous marriages take place in private and are not documented; case law preventing children from being removed from a polygamous home; and higher priorities for law enforcement. In recent years, the most spectacular polygamy case did not
[CTRL] Death of an Old Virtue
-Caveat Lector- Last post (from me) on this issue) From Nat'l Review The End Of Courage The strange death of an old virtue. -- -- ROGER SCRUTON Mr. Scruton is a writer and philosopher in England and the author of An Intelligent Person's Guide to Philosophy. -- -- ONE of the lessons to be drawn from the conflict in Kosovo is that, while our governments are ready to use military force, they are reluctant to take the risk of fighting. The strategy adopted is essentially one of window dressing. "Look how strong we are!" NATO declares; "we can destroy factories, bridges -- whole towns, if we desire!" The Serbs know that the cost of rebuilding those factories, bridges, and towns will be borne, in the end, by the states that are currently destroying them. What matters, to them, is the war on the ground, in which men face each other and fight -- as the Kosovo Liberation Army would fight, if we had the sense to arm it. Killing, intimidating, and driving into exile are the real business of war: and on this level, everything has proceeded, from the Serb point of view, as smoothly as could ever be expected. PictureWhat explains the reluctance of NATO to fight? Some speak of the enormous monetary cost of mobilizing troops on the ground. But it is a cost that Europe and America, controllers of the world's wealth, could easily meet. Besides, it would be far less than the cost of repairing the damage caused by continual bombing and of housing the Kosovan refugees. Others refer to the inevitable casualties, and the reluctance of Western democracies to accept them. But this is a doubtful argument. In Britain, at least, public opinion is behind the use of force, and eager for a speedy and definitive end to the conflict. Our airmen are already expressing their frustration at rules of engagement that prevent them from making use of their low-flying skills, and from taking the risk of direct air-to-ground combat. PictureThe history of modern warfare tells us that, in the end, the swiftest resolution to a conflict, and the one most economical in both military and civilian casualties, is the decisive victory on the ground -- the breakthrough that leads to the capture of disputed territory. That victory could be achieved tomorrow, to the immense relief not only of the Kosovan Albanians but of the nations that have been half-reluctantly persuaded to defend them. In some peculiar, metaphysical way, however, the hands of our governments are tied. It is as though all options were open, provided nothing were at risk besides machines. The crucial factor on which victory has always depended -- the willingness to risk life and limb -- has been removed from the equation. PictureIn effect, the war in Serbia is an exercise in sanitized aggression -- force without the risk of force, violence without tears, destruction from a place of safety. Not only is this cowardly: It is profoundly counter-productive, as we are beginning to see. Courage is a higher value than safety, and a life without risk diminishes the gift of freedom. And part of the value of courage over hesitation lies in the fact that it moves more decisively, more economically, and with less catastrophic destruction, to its goal. Courage is not just intrinsically admirable; it is also the most efficient means to achieve what we want. PictureIf we wish to understand the mentality of our leaders, we must remind ourselves of the liberal priorities in politics. The Founding Fathers believed that the purpose of politics is to safeguard the space in which individuals can grow. The Constitution was devised to promote freedom and enterprise, and to encourage individuals to take full responsibility for their lives. The liberal heirs of the Founding Fathers believe that the purpose of politics is to look after all citizens from cradle to grave, regardless of what they have done to deserve it. For them, politics is a rescue service, offered unconditionally to all. Hence safety, health, and comfort become the primary political values. The aim is to create a risk-free society. If we contemplate war, it is only war at a distance, a series of "warning shots" that will deter the villains from their purpose without exposing our citizens to risk. Such a war, however, is both costly and essentially unwinnable. PictureIt is not only in war that the liberal priorities are dangerous. The obsession with health is profoundly unhealthy, and the pursuit of safety unsafe. If we believe that the state is there to cushion us from misfortune, to compensate every loss and make up for every suffering, then we automatically relinquish control over our lives, while drastically narrowing the sphere of human action. Regulations of a mind-numbing complexity now govern activities, consumer

It does not use the word individual. Also, the Supreme Court, or so I have been told, has never interpreted the 2nd amendment to apply on the level of the individual. Well, sir, we can accept the definitions of our enemies, or we can use the definitions of our Founders. "Well-regulated" means "well trained and well-equipped," not "well-limited." "People" means "individuals." It does not refer to some group of people. The Federalist Papers make it clear that the Second Amendment applies to the right of each individual to be equipped with arms so that each state might have a "well-regulated" militia. If gun ownership were a state right, they would have said "the right of the states to keep and bear arms." In the Tenth Amendment, both "states" and "people" are used, indicating they are separate, and "people" cannot mean "states." The Fourth Amendment says, "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated." Do you think that the "people" in the Fourth Amendment are different from the "people" in the Second? One of the purposes of the Constitution is to protect you and me, "the people" from usurpations of power by the government. The Supreme Court Justices are appointed by the President and ratified by the Senate. Are they on the side of the government or the people? What makes you think they would not be motivated to interpret the Constitution in favor of government and against the rights of the people? Where does the Constitution say it is whatever the Supreme Court says it is? If the people are willing to surrender their Holy Constitution to the whims of the Supreme Court, they no longer deserve its protections and they will lose them. I once wrote a petition on which we got over 20,000 signatures, asking my Congressman to use his constitutional powers ("with such exceptions, and under such regulations as the Congress shall make." -- Article III, Section 2) to restrict the Supreme Court's power to review state abortion laws. He said he could not restrain the Supreme Court because they had the power to interpret the constitutionality of anything Congress did. That important check and balance held by Congress over the Supreme Court has been lost due to our traditional enthronment of the Supreme Court. Actually, the Constitution gave no such sweeping powers to the Supreme Court. They stole that power in Marbury vs Madison in 1803. I am just trying to challenge that 200-year-old myth.

[CTRL] Kennedy Casket explanation (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- Family Insisted JFK Casket Be Sunk By DEB RIECHMANN= Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) _ It was the Kennedy family that insisted that the polished bronze casket used to carry President Kennedy's body from Dallas to Washington be dumped into the ocean, newly released documents say. Kennedy was buried at Arlington National Cemetery in a mahogany coffin and there have been lingering questions about what ever happened to the casket used in Texas after Kennedy was assassinated on Nov. 22, 1963. ``What I would like to have done is take it to sea,'' Robert Kennedy, the president's brother, told an official of the General Services Administration in February 1966. Despite concerns that the casket was government property, Kennedy told GSA Administrator Lawson Knott Jr. that he believed it belonged to the family ``and we can get rid of it any way we want to,'' according to a memo recounting their telephone conversation. About two weeks later, on Feb. 18, 1966, an Air Force van picked up the casket at the National Archives building in downtown Washington. To make sure that it would sink, the casket was loaded with three 80-pound bags of sand. Numerous holes were drilled into the coffin and a pine box that encased it. It was bound with metal banding tape and rigged with parachutes to break the impact of hitting the water. At 8:38 a.m., a C-130 airplane carrying the casket left Andrews Air Force Base and flew off the Maryland-Delaware coast. The plane descended to 500 feet and at 10 a.m., the tail hatch of the plane was opened and the 660-pound load was pushed out. ``The parachutes opened shortly before impact and the entire rigged load remained intact and sank sharply, clearly and immediately after the soft impact,'' John Steadman, special assistant to the defense secretary, wrote in a Feb. 25, 1966 file memo. ``The aircraft circled the drop point for some 20 minutes at 500 feet to ensure that nothing returned was chosen because it was away from regularly traveled air and shipping lines and would not be disturbed by trawling and other sea-bottom activities, the documents said. The government paid for the bronze coffin, but it was unclear whether it was government property. However, Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach said in a Feb. 11, 1966 letter to the GSA that he felt it was necessary to dispose of the coffin. ``I am unable to conceive of any manner in which the casket could have an evidentiary value, nor can I conceive of any reason why the national interest would require its preservation,'' Katzenbach wrote. ``It is obvious that it could never be used for burial purposes and its public display would be extremely offensive and contrary to public policy.'' = Kaddish, Kaddish, Kaddish, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

However, Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach said in a Feb. 11, 1966 letter to the GSA that he felt it was necessary to dispose of the coffin. ``I am unable to conceive of any manner in which the casket could have an evidentiary value, nor can I conceive of any reason why the national interest would require its preservation,'' Katzenbach wrote. ``It is obvious that it could never be used for burial purposes and its public display would be extremely offensive and contrary to public policy.'' = Kaddish, Kaddish, Kaddish, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

Where are the gun deaths? Where are the accidental shootings? Prisoners who want to kill really have to work hard at it. Mass killings with sharpened spoons just don't happen. The simple straight fact is PEOPLE WITH GUNS KILL PEOPLE. Remove either one from the equation, and the outcome changes drastically. It is easier to remove guns than people from the equation. That is why it will happen. Joshua2 I grant your point, even though, as you rightly say, yours is not a perfect example. One must not forget, that in the environment that you have chosen for your example there is a much greater degree of control over every action of the prisoners. This is what keeps the death rate down to a great extent, not JUST the lack of weapons, notably guns. I know that you do not advocate this type of control on society in general so the analogy is flawed to some extent. However, point taken and conceded. My own personal opinion on the matter is that much more would be gained and in a better fashion if we attack the root of much of the death's by shooting that occur. That is crime. Decriminalizing drugs, and some other less drastic means than banning all gun ownership, except for law enforcement, are effective, and necessary in my opinion, things that could be done to reduce the violent crime rate, especially death by gun.

[CTRL] Hazel O'Leary's Rocky Flats Horror Show [whistleblower axed]
-Caveat Lector- Wednesday June 2, 9:22 AM Hazel O'Leary's Rocky Flats Horror Show In a hair-raising Nukegate report that was largely overlooked as America tuned out over the Memorial Day weekend, William J. Broad wrote in Sunday's New York Times: "For more than half a decade, the Clinton administration was shoveling atomic secrets out the door as fast as it could, literally by the ton. Millions of previously classified ideas and documents relating to nuclear arms were released to all comers, including China's bomb makers." The Times quoted then-presiding Energy Secretary Hazel O'Leary (1993 - 1997), who proudly proclaimed at the beginning of her tenure: "The United States must stand as a leader. We are declassifying the largest amount of information in the history of the department." Now the American Spectator's Kenneth Timmerman adds another dimension to O'Leary's "openess initiative," in a report that zeroes in on the new policy's impact at nuclear storage sites like Rocky Flats, Colorado. The Rocky Flats security scandal may be the most damaging yet, since the cover-up is apparently still ongoing. Current Energy Secretary Bill Richardson, who just gave department whistleblower Notra Trulock a $10,000 reward for exposing security breaches at Los Alamos, is desperately trying to keep what O'Leary did at the Colorado site under wraps. According to Timmerman, "Richardson is now attempting to prevent a top DOE official in charge of safeguards and security from testifying before Congress. Why? Because that official, Edward J. McCallum, had made clear his intention to warn Congress and the public of devastating gaps in security procedures at nuclear storage sites such as Rocky Flats." Richardson already knows what McCallum has to say, since McCallum privately warned the Clinton administration last January about trouble at Rocky Flats. The consequences of the cover-up could be dramatic. "Terrorists could easily penetrate the facility and steal weapons grade plutonium, or construct and detonate a nuclear bomb on the site without DOE security teams being able to prevent it," reports the Spectator, based on what McCallum told Timmerman. It gets worse. McCallum was fired from his DOE post, or rather, "placed on adminstrative leave without pay" just last month. Bill Richardson personally gave the order to axe the whistleblower because he was "pissed off" at McCallum's attempts to inform Congress, according to what sources have told the Spectator. White House flaks may have a tough time spinning the Rocky Flats scandal for other reasons. Not only has the administration "repeatedly and obstinately" refused to correct the problem, but Mrs. O'Leary may be vulnerable to conflict of interest charges. Timmerman writes: "Under O'Leary's stewardship, Rocky Flats cut its security force by 40 percent, allowing prime contactor Kaiser-Hill LLC to improve its profit margin despite an overall reduction in the funds it received from DOE. Indeed, Kaiser Hill actually earned performance bonuses from DOE, because its cleanup operations were going ahead on schedule." Kaiser-Hill was apparently grateful for Mrs. O'Leary's indulgence, since she wound up on the board of ICF Kaiser, its parent company, upon her retirement from DOE. She remains on Kaiser's board today, while her husband does consulting work for the company. O'Leary's Rocky Flats horror show only adds to the former Energy Secretary's Nukegate woes. In 1997 probers discovered that she accepted $25,000 from Chinese businessman Johnny Chung in the name of her favorite charity, Africare. Chung testified last month that the chief of Red Chinese intelligence gave him $300,000 to help get Bill Clinton re-elected in 1996. http://www.newsmax.com/insidecover.shtml Bard Visit me at: The Center for Exposing Corruption in the Federal Government http://www.xld.com/public/center/center.htm Federal Government defined: a benefit/subsidy protection racket!

[CTRL] Fwd: S99-97, Day 71 (June 2, 1:00PM EDT) - A Special TiM GW Bulletin on NATO's War on Serbia
FROM PHOENIX, ARIZONA The Special Truth in Media Global Watch Bulletins on NATO's war on Serbia, such as the one enclosed below, can also be accessed at our Web site: www.truthinmedia.org which is being updated throughout the day. Issue S99-98, Day 71 --- June 2, 1999; 1:00PM EDT HEADLINES Washington 1. Death of Freedom in America? March on Pentagon Banned by Arlington Police! Sweden 2. Anti-NATO Protests Banned in Europe; Protesters Beaten by Police Santa Cruz 3. California Anti-war Protester Beaten the Rodney King-Style 1. Death of Freedom in America? March on Pentagon Banned by Arlington Police! WASHINGTON, June 2 - As you saw in our Bulletins S90-93 and S99-94, there is a big anti-war protest planned in Washington for this weekend. The plan was to assemble at the Vietnam Memorial at noon, hold some speeches there, and then march across the Potomac to Virginia, and reassemble for more speeches at the Pentagon. We've just received word from one of the protest organizers, the International Action Center, that the Arlington police had denied us the permit to march along public streets. If we allow this decision to stand unchallenged, it will mean the death of constitutional guaranteed freedom in America. If you value your freedom of speech and that of peaceful assembly, we call upon you to call or fax immediately the Arlington County Police, the governor of the state of Virginia, the White House and the Justice Department - and demand that they reverse this outrageous violation of our constitutional rights. (1) Arlington County Police--phone: (703) 228-4252, (703) 558-; fax: (703) 228-4127, (703) 228-4192. (2) Gov. James Gilmore, Virginia--phone: (804) 786-2211, fax: (804) 371-6351. (3) White House--phone: (202) 456-1414, fax: (202) 456-2461. (4) Justice Department/Attorney General Janet Reno--phone: (202) 514-2000 (Dept. of Justice, ask for Janet Reno), fax: (202) 514-0323. And now, here is the text of the International Action Center's message: URGENT ACTION NEEDED - Permit Denied In an outrageous effort to suppress the June 5 anti-war March on the Pentagon, the police authorities have denied a permit to march on the streets to the Pentagon. We are launching a massive political and media campaign to demand the right of the protest to march in the streets of Virginia. We believe the White House and the Pentagon are colluding with local police agencies in this effort. We are appealing to all those who believe in free speech and especially to those who oppose the war in Yugoslavia to assist us in a phone, fax, and email campaign to protect the first amendment rights of all those who plan to participate in the June 5 March on the Pentagon. With just three days to go before the June 5 March on the Pentagon, the Arlington County Police have denied the June 5th demonstration the right to march on a small stretch of Virginia roadway between the Vietnam Veterans' Memorial, located in Washington DC, and the Pentagon building, located in Virginia. This is an arbitrary and political decision. It is an outrageous attempt to violate the first amendment right to free speech. It is an attempt to either stop the June 5th March on the Pentagon or to create a chaotic situation at the demonstration. While denying the right of the marchers to the roadways leading to the Pentagon, police authorities are trying to reroute the march into a narrow and dangerous bike trail that at points becomes a single-file line, crossing a major highway. The police know that this is not a safe or tenable route for a march of ten thousand or more. The Arlington County Police refuse to return phone calls from the organizers and attorneys of the June 5 march. The June 5 demonstration is the largest mobilization to date against the U.S./NATO war in Yugoslavia. We believe that it is impossible for the county of Arlington police to unilaterally try to prevent us from carrying out an orderly demonstration. We hold the Clinton White House and Virginia Governor James Gilmore responsible for this flagrant violation of our rights. We will not be stopped. The war in Yugoslavia has killed thousands of innocent civilians. We will not allow the U.S. authorities to stop the anti-war movement from exercising its rights. Please immediately phone and/or fax to the following authorities an angry protest against the denial of our rights to march on the streets to the Pentagon. Tell the authorities, we demand the right to march on Route 27 to the Pentagon. Please phone and/or fax to the following: (1) White House--phone: (202) 456-1414, fax: (202) 456-2461 (2) Justice Department/Attorney General Janet Reno--phone: (202) 514-2000 (Dept. of Justice, ask for Janet Reno),

[CTRL] Bush gave N-bomb to Chicoms? (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- - Original Message - From: Damian B. Cooper [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 1999 6:37 PM Subject: Bush gave N-bomb to Chicoms? According to a man described as "the father of the neutron bomb", Samuel Cohen, the "neutron bomb" secrets were "given" to Communist China in the 1980's by the "executive branch" of the U.S. government. Cohen made his assertions during a radio interview with KSFO radio talker, Michael Savage. Cohen corrected Savage when Savage suggested that the secrets were transferred during the Reagan administration: "the eighties were the era of Reagan-Bush". Cohen was circumspect in his assertions, but the implication of what he said was that during the period he was referring to, George Bush was really the architect of the U.S. China policy, and the U.S. was concerned about China's ability to defend against a massive invasion by the Soviet Union. The result was that persons "in the executive branch" caused the nuclear secrets to be transferred. Cohen made it clear that he was NOT asserting that Ronald Reagan directed the transfer. He suggested that there are a lot of things that the president doesn't know about, and that are handled without his knowledge.
