Dear Citizens, Patriots, Veterans, et al:

   It is upon us already!  Do you have all your food, medical and survival
supplies, weapons of protection and self-defense, and living necessities
stock piled?  Here is more documentation that the feds are preparing the
citizens near White Mountain, Arizona to be evacuated for some "emergency."
The area is about 150 driving miles northeast of Phoenix.  There are phone
numbers listed at the end of this post to call the authorities to find out
the details.

   Here is the scuttle-butt:   Multiple public agencies (see list below)
have
written and posted and handed out instructions on preparing for a yet to be
announced emergency.  So looks like the feds are going to concoct one.

They are going to evacuate the residents who have been instructed to
leave everything behind and take only the barest of necessities.  The
families have been instructed to PLAN on having their family members
SEPARATED (this from the governmental agencies themselves).

   Why?  What is the emergency?  NOTHING  The White Mountains area has
federal, military, FEMA and other agencies already dug in and tunnelled
into
the mountain just like at Weather Mountain and Iron Mountain where FEMA has
built underground caverns large enough to house 15,000 elite governmental
politicians, military, rich desireables, and modern-day illuminati.  They
have enough food and supplies stock-piled to house these 1000s of people
for
at least 4 years in a completely sealed underground, subterranean
environment.  This is to be able for them to survive any nuclear
devastation
or NBC, Nuclear, Biological, or Chemical warfare agents and weapons of mass
destruction as to be perpetrated by supposed international and domestic
terrorists.

  Already, the residents at Lakeside and surrounding White Mountain areas
have complained that there were at first ONLY 100s of foreign troops
milling
about there.  Now the residents say that there are literally 1000s of
hostile
foreign troops who are actually quite mean and hassling the U.S. citizens
there.

   So what is going to happen?  Simple, As soon as the residents are
whisked
away on some false and trumped up "emergency" the foreign troops will come
out of hiding from the subterranean caverns and occupy all the citizens'
fully furnished and food-stocked homes.

   All of this VIOLATES our U.S. Constitution and Declaration of
Independence.  Ole King George, III truly has NOTHING on Emperor Clinton
the
Terrorist in Chief.

   Developments are evolving by the minute.  Please read some of the posts
below.  At first the word was that there was going to be an evacuation -
then
another post said it was all a hoax - that is until people started calling
the authorities' phone numbers that are listed.  I called the American Red
Cross and left messages and will report as soon as I hear from them.

   I have friends in Phoenix who have friends near that to-be-evacuated
area
and they will try to contact them to find out what is happening from the
residents' point of view.

  It is really too bad that after these three years I have been online
trying
to warn people that most people refused to believe what all was happening
to
usher in the New World Order.  Now most people will either suffer and
starve
or end up prostituting themselves for a few crumbs and be worked like
slaves
in Clinton's Civilian Concentraton Camps.  Too bad, but then that is the
way
it goes ALL the time, isn't it?

   Please read all of the posts below and decide for yourselves.  Of course
most people will just say "prove it to me first."  The only proof now is
when
they wake up in the prison labor camps, in Heaven, or in Hell.

Sadly, USCMike1

[CTRL] The Day Trading Rip-Off

1999-08-10 Thread Das GOAT

 -Caveat Lector-

 "Analysis concluded that over 70 percent of day-trading firms'
customers ``will almost certainly lose everything they invest.' ''


Most Day Traders Likely to Lose Money, Regulators Say

 Washington, Aug. 9 (Bloomberg) -- Most day-trading customers
are likely to lose money in an industry troubled by questionable
loan practices, lax supervision and misleading marketing, state
securities regulators said.
 The North American Securities Administrators Association
called for increased scrutiny of day trading, the fast-paced
investment style in which customers make dozens of rapid-fire
trades a day in hopes of profiting from small changes in stock
prices. After examining a sample of accounts at a day-trading
branch office, the regulatory group said 70 percent of the
traders studied there lost money.
 ``If day-trading firms want to become part of the
mainstream, they need to play by the same rules the rest of Wall
Street follows,'' said NASAA President Peter C. Hildreth, who is
also New Hampshire's director of securities regulation.
 The report urged day-trading firms to better explain the
risks, and said securities regulators should step up inspections
of day-trading firms that train investors and charge them to use
state-of-the-art trading systems in their offices. Regulators
should also enforce limits on a trader's ability to buy stocks
with borrowed money, the report said.
  The Securities and Exchange Commission and the National
Association of Securities Dealers responded by saying that they
are examining day-trading firms nationwide to assess their
compliance with securities regulations.
 ``Any violations of the federal securities laws uncovered in
these examinations will be forwarded to our enforcement
division,'' said SEC spokesman Chris Ullman. He said areas under
review include those touched on in the NASAA report: supervision,
disclosure, and margin rules.


  Market Experience

 The SEC is also weighing a proposal recently approved by
the National Association of Securities Dealers that would require
firms to screen prospective customers for whether their financial
circumstances and market experience are suited to day trading.
The NASAA report called on the SEC to ``speedily'' approve this
rule.
 The pressures and risks of day trading were thrown into the
spotlight two weeks ago when Atlanta day trader Mark Barton
killed 12 people and wounded 12 others before killing himself. He
left a note that cited trading losses.
 NASAA said its report was seven months in the making and is
based on the ``collective experience'' of the regulators in a
special task force on day trading. This experience includes their
reviews of registration applications, ``numerous examinations''
and investigations and enforcement proceedings. In the past 16
months, 10 day-trading firms have been charged with fraud,
deceptive marketing or improper registration by regulators in
Massachusetts, Texas, Wisconsin and Indiana.

   Prospective Clients

   The Electronic Traders Association, an industry group,
says its member firms make clear to prospective clients that
there are risks -- and that only disciplined, market-savvy people
should try day trading, and then only if they have money they can
afford to lose.
``We appreciate the work the NASAA has done,'' said Saul
Cohen, counsel to the ETA. ``All day trading firms can and must
strive to improve their disclosure mechanisms and their ethical
mechanisms.''
 Others in the day-trading world say they are victims of a
Wall Street old guard threatened by the electronic access that
allows individual investors to bypass brokers, thereby
``democratizing'' the industry.
 There are no independent estimates on the number of day
traders. The ETA estimates there are 4,000 to 5,000 active day
traders, and the report identified 62 firms and 286 branch
offices. Among the biggest are Heartland Securities Corp. in New
York, Mount Pleasant Brokerage Services in Charleston and
Momentum Securities in Houston.  The Atlanta branch office of
Momentum is where Barton began his rampage before moving on to
the local branch of the All-Tech Investment Group Inc.
 The NASAA report includes an analysis by consultant Ronald
L. Johnson of accounts at All-Tech's Massachusetts branch office,
which was the subject of a December 1998 enforcement action and
subsequent settlement. The analysis concluded that 70 percent of
the customers lost money, and Johnson said the same proportion of
people who try day trading ``will almost certainly lose
everything they invest.''
  His analysis focused on 4,093 trades in 26 accounts. Most
of the accounts in the analysis that made money, the consultant
said, were ``highly dependent'' on a single winning trade for
their positive performance, raising questions about whether those
traders would be successful over time. In some cases, the study
said, results may

Russia's New Premier an Ex-Spy

By ANGELA CHARLTON
.c The Associated Press


MOSCOW (AP) - A seasoned spy with little political or economic experience,
Vladimir Putin vaulted to Russia's No. 2 spot Monday when Boris Yeltsin
appointed him acting prime minister.

His espionage background seemed to be a key selling point. Yeltsin's last two
premiers, Sergei Stepashin and Yevgeny Primakov, also worked for Russian
intelligence agencies.

Putin, a 46-year-old with ramrod-straight posture, is seen as tougher than
mild-mannered Stepashin, which appeals to Yeltsin and his inner circle as
they prepare for a bruising battle in December parliamentary elections and
presidential elections next summer.

Yeltsin, who is constitutionally barred from running for a third term, openly
anointed Putin as his preferred successor Monday, and Putin immediately
announced he would run for president.

``Perhaps I have little experience as a politician,'' Putin acknowledged when
asked why he made the announcement so soon. ``I did not engage in politics.''

Putin's limited political experience makes it hard to judge what kind of
prime minister he will be, much less president. Besides, an endorsement from
the extremely unpopular Yeltsin may be a mixed blessing.

Putin ``is a bureaucrat rather than a national leader,'' said Yevgeny Volk, a
political analyst with the conservative Heritage Foundation. ``He has no
charisma.''

Former colleagues described Putin as ``secretive'' and ``closed,'' and he
accepted his appointment Monday in a terse, matter-of-fact fashion.

``We are military men, and we will implement the decision that was made,''
Putin told reporters as he sat at his Kremlin desk, topped with six
telephones adorned with the old Soviet state emblem.

Speaking later on Russia's NTV network, Putin mentioned his doctoral thesis
in economics and promised ``no revolutionary changes'' from the economic
course of the previous Cabinet. He did, however, speak vaguely about
increasing the government's regulatory role.

Putin described his main task as ``improving the life of the people, the
population's standard of living'' - yet also issued a harsh warning to those
who might be planning labor unrest, which in the past has involved railroad
blockades.

``Those who destabilize the situation will sit (in jail),'' Putin said.

In his rare public remarks before the appointment, Putin has stressed the
need for Russia to rebuild the security services that have been undermined by
the country's general decline and chronic money problems since the Soviet
breakup in 1991.

Putin, who likes such marital arts as judo and the Soviet-devised sambo, is
considered extremely loyal to Yeltsin. But so was Stepashin, whom Yeltsin
fired Monday without giving a reason.

Immediately after graduating from the law faculty at Leningrad University in
1975, Putin began a 15-year career with the KGB's foreign intelligence arm,
including a posting as an agent in Germany.

After retiring from the KGB with the rank of colonel, he began working in St.
Petersburg's local government, rising to the post of vice-mayor in 1994.

Yeltsin brought Putin to Moscow in 1996, naming him deputy chief Kremlin
administrator. Since then, Putin has also served as the Kremlin official in
charge of relations with Russia's far-flung regions, and last year was named
head of the Federal Security Service, the KGB's main successor agency.

In March, Putin was also named secretary of the presidential Security
Council, a powerful advisory body that coordinates activities of the armed
forces, security agencies and police.

``I'm convinced that he will serve the nation well,'' Yeltsin said in a
television address.

Putin's appointment must be approved by parliament's lower house, which
scheduled a session on the issue for next Monday.

Yeltsin is jealous of other politicians stealing the limelight, and that may
have contributed to his decision to select a relative unknown as premier. But
Yeltsin's fickle nature will also make it tough for Putin, like his
predecessors, to establish their own identities without risking the
president's wrath.

 -Caveat Lector-

Russians, Rebels Send Reinforcements

By ARSEN MALAYEV
.c The Associated Press

MAKHACHKALA, Russia (AP) - Russian security forces and Islamic rebels amassed
troops and weaponry Monday in a rugged Caucasus Mountain region where the
militants have seized several villages.

Russian troops accused rebels of shooting at Russian helicopters, including
one carrying the armed forces' chief of staff. He was not hurt and the
aircraft was only slightly damaged, said Timur Abdullayev, a spokesman for
the government of the southern republic of Dagestan.

The standoff, one of the worst in the area since Russia's disastrous 1994-96
war in neighboring Chechnya, began when Chechen militants moved into Dagestan
on Saturday and occupied several villages just across the border in a rocky
area accessible only by rough gravel roads and with few phone lines.

Federal and local troops moved in. Russian helicopter gunships fired on the
rebels Saturday and Sunday, but did not dislodge them.

The gunmen appeared to be members of the Wahhabi Islamic movement who support
independence for Russia's mostly Islamic republics in the Caucasus.

Chechnya has had de facto independence since the Russian troops withdrew
three years ago, though Moscow still claims it is part of Russia. Moscow has
placed security forces along Chechnya's borders to try to fence it off, but
warlords and criminal gangs roam the area and often venture into neighboring
regions.

The latest conflict was complicated by yet another Russian government
shake-up in Moscow. President Boris Yeltsin fired Prime Minister Sergei
Stepashin and his government on Monday, the day after Stepashin flew to
Dagestan to try to defuse the crisis.

It was unclear how the changes would affect Russia's approach to the
Caucasus. Russia's Security Council met Monday to discuss the conflict.

Yeltsin's choice for prime minister, Vladimir Putin, head of the main
successor agency to the KGB, said the fighting contributed to Stepashin's
ouster and he threatened to introduce a ``special regime'' in the republics
bordering Chechnya, Russian news reports said. He did not elaborate.

Stepashin warned Monday, ``We really may lose Dagestan,'' according to the
Interfax news agency. ``The situation is very serious.''

Four Russian policemen were accidentally killed Sunday when Russian
helicopter gunships mistook them for rebels, the Dagestani Interior Ministry
press service said Monday. In addition, at least 15 Russian troops were
wounded in fighting with the rebels.

The ministry also said the bodies of four militants were discovered Monday
and five wounded gunmen were captured.

Nearly 4,000 civilians had abandoned the captured villages by Monday,
according to Mayor Said Amirov of Dagestan's capital, Makhachkala. Dagestan's
government sent trucks to evacuate others and was setting up refugee camps at
resorts and summer camps.

Refugees who arrived in Makhachkala said the rebel gunmen didn't threaten
them and asked their help in introducing Islamic law.

Dagestan's government opposes the Wahhabis and has shown no sign of splitting
from Moscow, largely because its weak economy is heavily dependent on federal
funding.

[CTRL] (1) Keating / Singlaub / Bush-CIA-Saddam / BCCI-Mafia-PERMINDEX

1999-08-10 Thread Das GOAT

 -Caveat Lector-

 AZ Senator and Republican presidential candidate John McCain, one of the
"Keating Five," figures prominently in the following article -- a
mind-boggling connect-the-dots portrait of "government" AS CRIME.


CHARLES KEATING AND THE SL CRISIS

 Charles Keating, the godfather of the SL scandal, now sits
behind bars, perhaps for the rest of his life.  He has been
assessed fines exceeding 3.6 billion dollars in just one civil
action.  Federal prosecution has not yet begun.  Yet after
several books and tens of thousands of column inches of
newsprint, the major features of the Keating story remain, until
now, untold.
 For example, General John Singlaub and the CIA's Latin
American military campaigns, Carl Lindner's purchase of UNITED
BRANDS and the U.S. Honduran aid program, extensive BCCI
transactions, PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE, and Keating's attempt to get
a strangle hold on the water supply of Arizona are key essential
features of Keating's story that have not had national exposure.
 An army of federal regulators, prosecutors, attorneys and
judges have combed the affairs of Charles Keating.  So why
haven't the major features of his operations come to light?
Having a brother who was vice president of ASSOCIATED PRESS
helped keep items off the wire service.  The ownership of
Phoenix's two city newspapers helped even more.  The ARIZONA
REPUBLIC and the PHOENIX GAZETTE are owned by the Dan Quayle
family.  The Vice President's involvement in the affairs of CIA
Latin American programs provided plenty of incentive for Phoenix
newspapers to keep the Keating affair as quiet as possible.  And
Carl Lindner, a much bigger fish than Charles Keating in these
affairs, holds the largest stock interest in KTSP TV, the CBS
television affiliate in Phoenix.
 Keating is a man who has done favors for many powerful
individuals including Presidents Ford, Reagan and Bush**.  Steven
Pizzo, author of INSIDE JOB, one of the best books on SL
looting, supplied Barbara Honegger, author of OCTOBER SURPRISE, a
Defence Intelligence Agency telex indicating that the alleged
OCTOBER SURPRISE airplane for William Casey's and Heinrich Rupp's
Paris trip was arranged by Kenneth Qualls, formerly the chief
pilot of Charlie Keating's AMERICAN CONTINENTAL CORPORATION.
This and other high level CIA favors may suggest even more
sinister reasons why the major features of the Keating story
never made it to print.
 Savings and Loans were originally chartered to provide home
mortgage loans.  When Ronald Reagan deregulated the industry,
high rollers were free to attempt more ambitious projects with
the federally insured deposits.  No one was more ambitious than
Charlie Keating and no one lost more of the tax payer's money.
   To date taxpayers have been assessed $500 billion for the SL
looting -- $2 1/2 billion for Charlie's sins alone.  After
providing less than a dozen home loans, Keating set out to build
THE PHOENICIAN, a $300 million luxury resort hotel financed 55%
by his newly acquired SL, LINCOLN SAVINGS, and 45% by the King
and Queen of Kuwait.
 November of 1989, six months after Keating's parent company
AMERICAN CONTINENTAL finally hit the skids, the Feds took over
the PHOENICIAN RESORT in a surprise 1:00 AM raid.  At 4:00 AM
Keating was summoning bellmen to a side entrance where 24 cartons
of files were loaded into Keating's recreational vehicle.  When
asked about this by a member of the local press the Feds
responded that they knew of this and Keating was allowed to take
these files because "they were his personal correspondence ---
like letters to his family." The federal investigation of Keating
was totally compromised from beginning to end.

 If the Feds had done even the most elemental examination of
the business affairs of Charles Keating, this is what they would
certainly have found: On November 26, 1980, just two weeks after
the election of Ronald Reagan and George Bush, Keating purchased
the property located at 2735 East Camelback Road for his AMERICAN
CONTINENTAL CORPORATION Headquarters.  For this he paid
$3,083,000 to the MICHAEL J. PELOQUIN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION.
During the period from 1980 to 1984, Maricopa county court
records show that sixty civil suits were filed against Peloquin.
And Michael J. Peloquin has a famous father, Robert Peloquin, who
has an even more questionable past.
 After serving on Robert Kennedy's Strike Force On Organized
Crime, Robert Peloquin and half the other attorneys there,
distinguished themselves by going directly to work for the major
organized crime figures they were investigating.  Peloquin Sr.
set up the private spy company, INTERTEL, reportedly for the king
pin of American organized crime, Meyer Lansky.  After Lansky had
failed to introduce legalized gambling into Atlantic City,
INTERTEL was formed to "police the gambling industry" to make
gambling acceptable to the state of New Jersey.  It is a matter
of record that Robert Peloquin ran the PARADISE

 " At the height of a rancorous party, Keating ripped off
his shirt to reveal a T shirt with a skull and crossbones
superimposed over the letters FHLBB [Federal Home Loan
Bank Board, which was "investigating" his SL rip-offs]."


CHARLES KEATING AND THE SL CRISIS

cont'd

All this was well known by lower level federal regulators who
could not get an appropriate response from higher ups.  In
testimony before the HOUSE BANKING COMMITTEE a federal regulator,
John J. Meek, testified that "AMERICAN CONTINENTAL had no records
of Keating's secret role in TRENDINVEST. Regulators learned of
the partnership only from an offhand remark by an AMERICAN
CONTINENTAL executive."  Keating invested $17.5 million into this
company without even informing the board of directors of AMERICAN
CONTINENTAL.
 Meeks went on to detail an unending train of baffling
Keating transactions which included $25.5 million to DIA
HOLDINGS, a Netherlands company, $10 million to SOUTHBROOK
HOLDINGS, a Panamanian company, $25 million to GFTA, a West
German company -- all deals that regulators never figured out.
 In summary, did Keating have both the motive and the
opportunity to launder illegal funds for CIA operations in Latin
America and elsewhere?  Yes. Yes.

 It is worth mentioning that when Keating moved out of suite
150, POST/NEWSWEEK moved in.  Remember, this was just across the
hall from where General John Singlaub ran the Nicaraguan Contra
campaign.  This was the operation that led Ollie North and
General Secord into so much temptation.  Despite the parade of
mercenaries that marched through Singlaub's office, POST\NEWSWEEK
was one among many news organizations that never had the
slightest inclination to cover any of these stories.
 Inasmuch as an animal cannot be defined apart from its
environment, it is worth analyzing the political setting of
Charles Keating.  During the high points of Keating's reign the
big man in Arizona was Kemper Marley.  Marley was the first and
only billionaire in Arizona.  His wealth was based originally on
a liquor monopoly conferred upon him by Sam Bronfman of the
SEAGRAMS family.  In Arizona Marley was all powerful.
  In 1948, fifty two employees of Kemper Marley's wholely
owned company, UNITED LIQUOR, went to prison on federal liquor
violations -- including Gene Hensley, the father-in-law of
Arizona Senator John McCain.  Gene Hensley was Kemper Marley's
UNITED LIQUOR general manager.  On the basis of so many
prosecutions some people might feel UNITED LIQUOR could qualify
as organized crime.  The slick attorney who kept Marley out of
this trial and sent McCain's father-in-law to prison in his place
was William Rehndquist -- currently the Chief Justice of the U.S.
Supreme Court.
  It was the judgement of the court that Gene Hensley would
be prohibited from ever working in the liquor industry.  Of
course such judgments meant nothing to Marley.  When Gene Hensley
got out of prison Marley arranged a BUDWIESER distributorship for
Hensley which is now in the hands of Senator John McCain and
reported to be worth $50 million!
  The best source for an introduction to the environment of
total political corruption in Arizona is the book, THE ARIZONA
PROJECT: HOW A TEAM OF INVESTIGATIVE REPORTERS GOT REVENGE ON
DEADLINE. In graphic detail journalist Michael Wendland links the
most prominent people in Arizona with various organized crime
king pins.  Wendland was part of the group called INVESTIGATIVE
REPORTERS AND EDITORS who came to Phoenix in the wake of the
fatal car bombing of the ARIZONA REPUBLIC's investigative
reporter, Don Bolles.  It was the conclusion of this group that
Marley, by far the wealthiest man in Arizona, was behind this
murder.
 According to intelligence sources of the Phoenix police, who
prepared a background profile of Kemper Marley the week following
the Bolles murder, Marley was at one time directly connected to
the remnants of the old Al Capone mob.
 When Marley died July 1990 he owned 5 square miles of
Carefree )*) the highest priced real estate in Arizona.  The
smallest lot in this most exclusive township is zoned for one
acre.  By some coincidence the Tax Accessor made the same mistake
evaluating Marley's properties as he did on Charlie Keating's
properties.  This oversight was saving Marley a million dollars a
year.  Of course the official investigation showed no wrongdoing
in either case.
 For the last 45 years Marley bankrolled the Republican Party
which doled out Marley's great wealth to a slate of Republican
candidates who were almost universally successful in obtaining
high political office.  Marley was able to control the Democratic
party as well.  Every current congressman and every senator in
Arizona owes his position to the Marley machine.  These office
holders include "Keating Five" Senators John McCain and Dennis
DeConcini as well as former State Attorney General, Bob Corbin.

War Seen Part of Plutocrats' Agenda

What charter? With Western Europe safe, NATO moves into the nation-building
mode.

EXCLUSIVE TO THE SPOTLIGHT

By James P. Tucker Jr.

The U.S.-led NATO attack on a sovereign nation is part of a much bigger
Bilderberg plan than stopping Serbians from butchering ethnic Albanians,
according to a high State Department source.

"It is important to the Bilderberg scheme for world government to get NATO
out from the limitations of its own charter," said the source, a reliable
observer for more than a decade.

The treaty limits the alliance to a defensive position, providing that if
any member nation is attacked, all NATO countries would respond, he pointed
out. The treaty has no authority for an unprovoked attack on a sovereign
nation.

"By bombing Kosovo, the precedent is set," he said. "Despite the terms of
the treaty, NATO now can go anywhere and attack anybody. This solidifies
NATO's role as the UN's world army."

While not officially sanctioned by the UN because Red China and Russia would
exercise Security Council vetoes and block the action, the UN bureaucrats
privately celebrate NATO's attack, he said.

"It's all so transparent, but the media covers it up and Americans don't
read enough anyway—that's why they're so damn ignorant," he said.

While ethnic Albanian blood is being spilled, the amount is exaggerated for
propaganda purposes and there's much bigger bloodbaths elsewhere if we're
looking for a fight, he said.

He also insisted that there was absolutely no risk of the civil war in
Yugoslavia spilling over borders and involving other nations, another of the
White House rationales.

President Clinton, he said, is "the most blood thirsty draft dodger in
history."

Giving NATO a global role instead of only a mission to defend Western Europe
is part of both evolving a world army and conditioning the public mind to
accept surrendering national sovereignty, he said.

The source pointed to a March 28 column by Jim Hoagland of The Washington
Post, who regularly attends Trilateral and Bilderberg meetings.

"The intervention in Kosovo should revive the concept of a 'right to
intervene' and lead to changes in the United Nation's standards for
sovereignty and the existing protections those standards provide for
criminal governments," Hoagland wrote.

"NATO's decision to bypass the Security Council to avoid Russian and Chinese
vetoes based on 'sovereignty' arguments reflects poorly not on NATO but on
the Security Council as it is organized," he wrote.

"Using the Kosovo operation to override outmoded sovereignty concerns in
international relations would be one measure of political success for this
high-cost intervention," Hoagland added.

"Hoagland's column couldn't be better Bilderberg propaganda if Henry
Kissinger had dictated it," the official said.

[CTRL] Tidal Wave of [5 million] Aliens Aim at Southwest

1999-08-10 Thread Bard

 -Caveat Lector-

"I have proudly affirmed that the Mexican nation extends beyond
the territory enclosed by its borders."
-- Mexican President Ernesto Zedillo

RECALL Zedillo's Pimp California Governor Gray Davis

Tidal Wave of Aliens Aim at Southwest

An expected influx of illegal aliens could wreak havoc on America's
unskilled laborers.

By THE SPOTLIGHT STAFF

The estimated 5 million illegal aliens—primarily Hispanics living in the
border area of Texas—may soon be joined by 600,000 jobless and homeless
illegals from Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala and El Salvador.

Another 280,000 immigrants from the four Central American countries have
already made their way to the U.S. southwest, according to researchers at
CID-Gallup of Costa Rica, a subsidiary of U.S. Gallup Organization.

The research, requested by the U.S. Information Agency, finds that the
largest number of Central American illegal immigrants—180,000—will come from
El Salvador, which has an adult population of 3 million. Next are 170,000
from Honduras with 2.26 million adults; another 170,000 from Guatemala with
6.1 million adults; and 88,000 from Nicaragua with 3.3 million adults.

The influx of Central American immigrants will have a major effect on the
U.S. job market. Immigrants in general with less than a high school
education drive down wages and push up unemployment for unskilled U.S.
laborers, especially Hispanics and blacks, George J. Borjas, a professor at
Harvard University, testified at a recent hearing of the House Subcommittee
on Immigration and Claims.

 The Costa Rica researchers interviewed 1,000 randomly selected would-be
immigrants from the four Central American countries. They discovered that
many of the Hondurans and Nicaraguans mistakenly thought they could come to
the United States regardless of their legal status in the wake of Hurricane
Mitch in early November.

The Clinton administration decided not to deport any Nicaraguans and
Hondurans if they were in the U.S. illegally before Dec. 30, 1998. The
deportation stay remains in effect through June 2000.

STOP THE FLOW

Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), a supporter of tighter immigration restrictions,
immediately lashed out at the administration for its deportation decision.
Smith claimed the administration ignored the warning from congressional
leaders, including the Texas Republican, that the message to the Central
Americans was unclear and would give them the impression that the United
States tolerates illegal entry.

Smith took the administration to task on illegal immigration during a March
oversight hearing on illegal immigration conducted by the House Subcommittee
on Immigration and Claims, which Smith chairs.

"Congress has given the Immigration and Naturalization Service [INS] the
necessary laws and funds, but the federal government still has not protected
its residents and defended its borders," Smith said. "The president is
missing the action."

A bipartisan group of congressmen and senators want to increase the size of
the U.S. Border Patrol, the uniformed enforcement arm of the INS, Smith
said.

"Border Patrol chiefs and border communities from California to Florida to
New York cry out for additional agents for effective enforcement, but the
president fails to respond," he noted.

The INS requested an additional 1,000 agents for the Border Patrol in the FY
2000 budget. President Clinton rejected the request. Instead he wants to
maintain the Border Patrol staffing at nearly 9,000 agents.

Frustrated by Clinton's unwillingness to spend $100 million for an
additional 1,000 Border Patrol agents, Sens. Kay Bailey Hutchinson
(R-Texas), Pete Domenici (R-N.M.), Jeff Bingaman (D-N.M.), John McCain
(R-Ariz.)and Kyl have introduced the Border Patrol Recruitment and Retention
Enhancement Act (S. 912). The legislation would increase agent salaries and
allow the agency to conduct its own recruiting rather than relying on
Department of Justice or INS personnel offices.

"Even though border protection is a clear federal responsibility and the
1996 immigration reform law requires the hiring of an additional 1,000
agents each year until 2001, the Clinton administration is effectively
ignoring the problem," Kyl said. "Besides not requesting funding to hire any
new agents next year, the administration appears unable to recruit
sufficient numbers of new agents or retain the ones they have successfully
hired. Our bill should help in that area."

Hutchinson said she thinks "the government in Washington still does not view
our problems along the border with the same urgency as the people of Texas."

The senators' legislation comes a day after Border Patrol Chief Gus de la
Vina admitted on April 28 before a Senate Immigration subcommittee hearing
arranged by Kyl that due to recruiting and retention problems the agency
will likely only hire between 200 and 400 new agents

Special Edition!!
A "Watergate to Whitewater" Thrillride!
starring
(an excerpt from the book-in-progress)
=
"When you’ve got them by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow."
—Charles Colson, Nixon White House Advisor



On July 1, 1972, the TV series Bewitched aired its final episode,
Attorney General John N. Mitchell resigned as chairman of President
Nixon's re-election committee because of the brewing Watergate scandal,
and as Sammy Davis JR’s aptly-titled single "Candy Man" began moving
smartly up the charts, Barry Seal was arrested in New Orleans for
conspiracy to export enough C4 plastic explosive to blow the island of
Cuba half-way up the Florida Keys.

The never-before told story of Barry Seal and the CIA’s shutting down
(temporarily) of the "Mexican Connection" might go a long way towards
explaining for the first time what Watergate was all about.

Because the most amazing thing about the most amazing scandal in
American history is that after all these years... we still don’t know.



Was Barry Seal Involved in Watergate?

Remember Watergate? If you’re like most Americans you probably remember
it wrong. Most Americans—most Americans we knew anyway-- cheered Nixon’s
removal as his just desserts for various and sundry unconstitutional
abuses of power which led inexorably to the pathos of that famous last
two-fingered victory salute from a helicopter door on the White House
lawn.

Few mourned his passing, especially since after his election in 1968
with a "secret plan to end the war" Nixon had then, instead, prolonged
the Vietnam War for almost as long as World War II had lasted.

When Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein broke the Watergate scandal it was
the Washington Post against the world, fearlessly exposing a level of
corruption that could bring down the government while its competitors
scoffed. Or so we were led to believe. (Of course, by 1996 the roles had
reversed and it was the Post doing the scoffing, at the lid-blowing
investigative effort by Gary Webb in the San Jose Mercury News on CIA
drug smuggling.)

Few people back in 1972 would have suspected that the Watergate scandal
had anything to do with narcotics trafficking and arms smuggling.

But as we learned about Barry Seal and the shutdown of the Mexican
Connection in that Watergate summer of 1972, it began to sound like
something out of a "Gangland" column in the New York Post, like two Mob
families going to war for control of the drug trade. Except these were
federal "families:" the CIA going up against the newly-created apparatus
which Nixon had devised to bring control of "drug intelligence" into the
Nixon White House.

It was a move the CIA clearly resisted.

Maybe America’s top crime families do all end in vowels.



"Everybody knows everybody, right?"

On July 3, 1972, The New York Times reported that Federal officials had
arrested seven men in Texas and Louisiana on charges of conspiring to
smuggle munitions to Mexico.

A DC-4 was seized at the Shreveport Regional Airport. On board were
13,500 pounds of C-4 explosives, 7,000 feet of explosive primer cord,
2,600 electric blasting caps and 25 electrical detonators. The
explosives, said the U.S. Attorney's Office in Louisiana, were destined
for Cuban exiles in Mexico, who were going to use them in an effort to
overthrow the government of Fidel Castro.

The principal players in the affair were Richmond C. Harper, 48,
millionaire rancher and Director of the Frontier State Bank of Eagle
Pass, Texas, Marion Hagler, a former Inspector with the Immigration and
Naturalization Service, Murray Kessler and Barry Seal.

Kessler, a frequent house guest at the Harper ranch, had a record of six
convictions in Federal and state courts on charges of interstate theft,
transporting stolen property, bookmaking and conspiracy to possess
heroin. Federal authorities called him an associate of the Gambino
organized-crime family.

In a surveillance report, a Customs agent described him after he landed
at the San Antonio airport as "50-ish and Jewish-looking, wearing a
open-collar gray shirt with a gray sports suit, accompanied by a
"bleached blond in white slacks and a red polka-dotted jacket."

More importantly, Murray Kessler was "an anti-Castro guy," according to
a former DEA agent who knew him, "which was like a mantra he carried
around with him."

He was also a known associate of Guy Banister and David Ferrie in the
1960’s, according to this same source, who was there. "He had a lot of
familiarity with that group of

Today's Lesson From Cryptonomicon

by Neal Stephenson


Consequently each wire in a running computer is like a little radio
transmitter. The signals that it broadcasts are completely dependent
upon the details of what's going on inside the machine. Since there are
a lot of wires in there, and the particulars of what they are doing are
fairly unpredictable, it is difficult for anyone monitoring the
transmissions to make head or tail of them. A great deal of what comes
out of the machine is completely irrelevant from a surveillance point of
view. But there is one pattern of signals that is (1) totally
predictable and (2) exactly what Pekka wants to see, and that is the
stream of bytes being read from the screen buffer and sent down the wire
to the screen hardware. Amid all the random noise coming from the
machine, the ticks of the horizontal and vertical retrace intervals will
stand out as clearly as the beating of a drum in a teeming jungle. Now
that Pekka has zeroed in on that beat, he should be able to pick up the
radiation emanating from the wire that connects screen buffer to video
hardware, and translate it back into a sequence of ones and zeroes that
can be dumped out onto their own screen. They will be able to see
exactly what Tom Howard sees, through the kind of surveillance called
Van Eck phreaking.

Japanese Culture

Japan Resurrects World War II Symbols

Rising-Sun Flag and Hymn to Emperor show rising nationalism.

TOKYO - Parliament on Monday overwhelmingly confirmed Japan's rising-sun
flag and a hymn to the emperor as the country's official symbols - and
symbols, on a larger scale, of a shift toward conservatism.
While convoys of rightists rode through the streets of Tokyo shouting
nationalist slogans and leftists protested outside Parliament, the upper
house voted, 166 to 71, in favor of a law recognizing the legality of
both the flag and the anthem as representing the Japanese people and
state.

The vote, following easy passage of the same bill in the lower house
last month, means that as of Friday, when Parliament adjourns, both the
flag and the hymn will no longer be merely de facto emblems of Japan.

Officials say that citizens will not have to sing the anthem and bow
before the flag with the zeal they were required to display in the years
of imperial rule until the end of World War II, but Japan's leaders have
made plain the nationalist sentiment behind the bill.

Both the flag and anthem ''have long histories and have already taken
hold under customary law,'' Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi said.

''It is very significant that they are now grounded in written law
shortly before the start of the 21st century,'' Mr. Obuchi said.

Teachers in particular have strongly opposed the anthem, contending that
it evokes the 1930s and early 1940s, when Japanese troops conquered much
of China and Southeast Asia.

Protesters on Monday carried signs denouncing the bill, and one burned a
flag outside a government building.

While Japanese routinely accept the flag, critics saw passage of the
bill as a milestone on the way to a new order.

''It's very dangerous,'' said Sachiko Hayashi, a recent college graduate
working for a large company. ''It's a step on the way to
remilitarization.''

The bill, however, sailed through Parliament at a time of mounting
concern here about Japanese defense policies, the military aims of
nearby nations and an economy mired in seemingly intractable problems.

Conservative forces led by the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, in power
for all but a few of the last 40 years, ensured easy passage of the
measure. A coalition dominated by the LDP, supported by the
Buddhist-backed Komeito Party and the Liberal Party, actually a rightist
grouping, supported the bill against strong objections only from the
Communist Party and the Social Democratic Party.

Legalization of the flag, a red circle symbolizing the sun on a white
field, appeared far less controversial than that of the anthem, which
appears to grant almost holy status to the emperor for the first time
since the defeat of Imperial Japan in 1945.

A poll conducted by the Japan Times last week showed that 89 of 100
people questioned approved of the flag while only 58 of 100 wanted the
hymn to be the national anthem. The formal name of the anthem,
''Kimigayo,'' is translated as ''His Majesty's Reign,'' and the verse in
translation venerates the emperor, who was officially a holy figure
enshrined as a god in the Shinto religion until the Japanese defeat.

''Thousands of years of happy reign be thine,'' reads one verse in
translation. ''Rule on, my lord, till what are pebbles now/ By age
united to mighty rocks shall grow/ Whose venerable sides the moss doth
line.''

The law was passed against the background of a wider debate about
whether to revise the ''peace constitution'' adopted during the U.S.

Re: [CTRL] New claim over Ark of the Covenant

1999-08-10 Thread Eagle 1

 -Caveat Lector-

Hi Nicky,
Thanks for the info...
(which I always find information like this fascinating... )

However,  I find fault with the assumption that the ark of the covenant will
ever be found on the earth as we know it.  The Bible clearly states:

"... And the Temple of God was opened *in heaven*,  and there was seen
in His Temple the ark of His testament . . . "
Revelation 11:19

Check any good concordance,  such as the Strong's,  and you will find
that the "ark of the covenant" is the exact same article as the
"ark of the testament",  which as stated in Revelation is located wherever
heaven is,  with God in His Temple,  not down some 'crack' in the earth.
It is therefore my opinion,  that Mr. Wyatt's attempts to find the ark of
the
covenant are futile.

 According to Wyatt, he was able to physically locate the Ark of the
 Covenant, the container for the original tablets of the Ten Commandments,
 with the Mercy Seat intact on the top. It was found in a chamber just
 outside the walls of ancient Jerusalem about 20 feet below what Wyatt also
 claimed was the actual site of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

 Wyatt said he found an earthquake crack directly below where the cross
would
 have been. It extends down through the rock to the resting place of the
 Mercy Seat atop the Ark of the Covenant, he told WorldNetDaily. The blood
of
 Christ would have flowed through that crack after his death and after his
 side was pierced by a soldier's spear.

EXCERPTS:
With all the Internetworked accelerating change shifting the power
of new paradigms via instant/everywhere wisdom and love to know better
and do better, a Golden Age would come easy if it were not for the
virtually anti-Christ resistance of the old paradigm of CONTROL VS. LOVE
that will do virtually anything for self-preservation of itself.
The fallen ones have their rituals of human sacrifice and anti-Christ
Satanic/Illuminati black masses that invert, subvert and otherwise
pervert all this is sacred, Christic and holy in God and Love.
 
During the full eclipse Aug 11th when the morphegenic energy grids
of the planet will be eclipsed (power down), the fallen ones plan to
morph the energy grids of consciousness with rituals that
would seal the 3rd eye (singular vision) of the collective
Christ Consciousness that is awakening on the planet. Reports are
that key global elite leaders are ritualistically putting a capstone on
the Great Pyramid of Giza that for them is the 33 level of Masonic
initiation... of the anti-Christ. Supposedly this ritual initiates their
plans for triggering World War III from behind the scenes to create and
manage terror, death and hell right into their New World Order.


As counterpoint to the plans and intent of these demonic
principalities of darkness, it is important that all mature Sons and
Daughters of God remember their inheritance and invoke the power of
Almighty God to bind and seal the proud and wicked forces of death and
hell who have, by their blasphemy, asked for their judgment at this
time. So be it. Pray fervently that the two-faced,
fork-tongued, politically correct but morally wrong seed of serpent be
bound in the earth and taken to the court of sacred fire for their final
judgment. Justice is mine sayeth the Lord. Invoke the
greatest love of, by and for God which is the judgment on all that is
less than love.

Clearly the Internet is the perfect vehicle for that heart-to-heart,

democratization of media, commerce and communication. Think about
it; when people have free time, they consume media, communicate with
people and engage in commerce. The Internet democratizes those
activities by reducing the limitations of time, place and form. The

 # Study links crime drop, legal abortion. CHICAGO (AP)  An unpublished study
   circulating among economists  criminal-law experts claims the legaliza-
   tion of abortion in the early 1970s has contributed to a drop in crime.
   The researchers argue that many women whose children would have been most
   likely to commit crimes as young adults instead chose to abort their preg-
   nancies. Because of that, a disproportionate number of would-be criminals
   in the 1990s were not born in the 1970s, the professors conclude. See

 Clari News: Study links abortion, low crime rate

The Chicago Tribune (8/8/99) has reported on an unpublished 45
page report that claims that for every 10% increase in the abortion
rate, there is a drop in the crime rate of 1%. Written by University
of Chicago economist Steve Levitt and Stanford University law
professor John Donohue III. The people who normally abort their
children are unwed mothers, poor and the uneducated, whose children
are normally faced with very tough lives that lead to crime. And get
this: "They're the ones who are most likely to have been unloved by
their mothers, ...'' I did not know that only white, educated and
married women could love their children. Are danger bells going off in
your head?

 There is a very good reason why Levitt and Donohue's article
should remain unpublished. It is a racist work aimed at the weakest
members of society that blames them for all the problems of crime in
American society. Hence if we abort their children enough, crime will
disappear!

Now can you spot the errors in the article's argument?

The two facts, increase abortion and drop in the crime rate
are not connected. (The article holds that they are!) Blue collar
crime is mostly done by youth. Any factor that reduces the numbers of
youth, will reduce the crime rate. It has no necessary connection to
abortion. They make their claim: "independent of other factors". As
such the only factor for consideration is to abort those minority
babies to reduce crime. In fact, better education, jobs and stable
homes environments will reduce the level of teenage pregnancies and
that can be shown to reduce crime directly. Give someone a job and
they have no need to steal. Teach them about birth control and they
will not get pregnant. Allow them to have self respect and there will
be no broken homes. Crime, in America is seen as totally a black and
minority problem, as they make up a larger percentage of the prison
population then their numbers in the general population would
indicate. You can see where this is going? The article is a back door
attempt to blame blue collar crime on minorities, and thus the
elimination of said minority will make America White and crime free!

Secondly; is it not nice of them to have a simple straw man of
the poor, un wed and un educated for crime. Read Black and minorities!
They do all the crime might as well be the claim here. They are the
ones in jail. And even better, they do not have the means, or
education to defend themselves from such academic racism. Which allows
people to forget that typically Blacks and other minority groups are
forced by economic circumstances to live in the poorest areas of town
where there are no jobs, no transportation and no ability to better
themselves. With no police, these areas become crime infested. Which
does nothing and does not seek to explain why there are white youth
who also commit crimes when they come from homes that not broken, with
married parents who are not poor. By establishing that those who come
from broken homes, un wed, un educated and poor as the source of
crime, it allows us to draw the conclusion that crime is a minority
problem and with a reduction of that minority, we have a safer
society. (Read a safer White society.)

Sorry,  Jamie,
again,  I disagree,  and I know I am on the right track.
I can see you haven't done your homework.

Read Revelation 12:7
" . . .  and the great Dragon, was cast out,  that old Serpent called the
Devil,
Satan,  which deceiveth the whole world,  he was cast out into the earth,
and his angels were cast out with him."

NOTICE all the names / titles of Satan...
By the way... Lucifer was a cherub,  not an angel.
There is a difference.  An angel is a messenger.
A cherub is undefinable,  but is known to have been
one of the beings who sat to the sides of the mercy seat
and were portrayed atop the ark of the covenant.
See Exodus 25:19-20

Read Ezekiel 28:13
"... thou has been in Eden the Garden of God..."
(Who besides Adam and Eve were in the Garden?
Think about it).

Read Ezekiel 28:16
"...  therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain
of God (reference Isaiah 14:16);  and I will destroy thee,
O COVERING CHERUB, from the midst of the stones of fire."

Sounds like you need to do a little Bible study yourself.
You could start with doing a study i.e. learning the meanings of,
of all the names / titles of Satan in the Bible.
That in itself is quite an education.

I am ever learning and willing to learn,
but will not be changed because of man's opinions.

 A study of historical statistics has revealed a correalation between
 the density of dynamic random access memory (DRAM) circuitry and
 population.

 Every increase in population in recent years has occured following an
 increase in the density of DRAM circuitry.  Clearly, the semi-conductor
 designers are in the employ of the reptiloids, and are conspiring to
 over-populate the planet for nefarious reasons.

Precisely.  Anti-abortionists seek massive growth in human populations
for the Reptilioids to 'harvest'.  Pro-global-warming forces seek higher
ambient temperature, to 'terraform' Earth to suit Reptilioid metabolism.
Increased DRAM density emits greater heat, furthering the latter goal,
and promotes human productivity, furthering the former goal.  In the
not-too-distant future, human population will reach 20 bln, sufficient
for Reptilioid mass-harvesting, and the depopulated earth will be most
suitable for Reptilioid colonization.  It all fits together.  Yow.

1999-08-10 Thread Alamaine Ratliff

 -Caveat Lector-

 American Values in Dire Straits
 by Bevin Chu
 Taipei, Taiwan (ROC)
 Special to Antiwar.com
 8/10/99



 High anxiety in the Taiwan Straits following Republic of China
 (ROC) President Lee Teng-hui's "two nations" challenge to the
 People's Republic of China raises the question: How should
 patriotic Americans respond to the Taipei-Beijing confrontation?

 The answer is: Americans who revere our heritage of freedom and
 independence must have the courage to defy 1990's political
 correctness and uphold core American values – by politely but
 firmly refusing to intervene, regardless of one's sympathies.

 As George Washington stated in his Farewell Address of 1796: "The
 Great rule of conduct for us, in regard to foreign Nations is in
 extending our commercial relations to have with them as little
 political connection as possible. . . . ‘Tis our true policy to
 steer clear of permanent Alliances, with any portion of the
 foreign World."

 Condensing Washington's 18th century idioms into bumper
 sticker-ese: "trade with either, side with neither."

 Meanwhile, the Taiwan Relations Act, which should have gone the
 way of the Berlin Wall, is exactly the kind of pernicious
 "permanent Alliance" with a "portion of the foreign World" the
 Father of our Country urged us to steer clear of.

 Washington was hardly alone. His resolute opposition to foreign
 intervention was shared by all the Founders. Neither he nor the
 other Founders intended any exceptions to be made for Kosovo or
 Taiwan.

 As James Madison put it, "it has been the true glory of the
 United States,” in “fulfilling their neutral obligations with the
 most scrupulous impartiality . . . to maintain sincere neutrality
 toward belligerent nations,” and “to exclude foreign intrigues
 and foreign partialities." Thomas Jefferson concurred, declaring
 that the foreign policy of a free society has to mean “Peace,
 commerce, and honest friendship, with all nations – entangling
 alliances with none." "Our first and fundamental maxim should be,
 never to entangle ourselves in the broils of Europe." Ditto Asia.

 As John Quincy Adams, author of the Monroe Doctrine put it,
 "America... does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy.
 She is well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She is
 the champion and vindicator only of her own."

 Why exactly were the Founding Fathers so unanimously and
 unambiguously opposed to "proactively" exporting American values
 beyond our shores? Did they not want liberty to prevail all over
 the world, not just in America? What was their problem anyway?
 Were they too shortsighted or selfish, as the nomenklatura of the
 New World Order seem to imply, to understand the value of "making
 the world safe for democracy?"

 The answer to all these questions is a resounding "No." The
 Founding Fathers were cultured cosmopolitans who devoutly hoped
 that liberty would triumph the world over. And no, their foreign
 policy prescriptions have not been rendered obsolete by jet
 travel and the Internet, because their soundness was not
 predicated on specific technologies. Rather, their strategic
 vision was grounded solidly in their grasp of fundamental human
 nature, which has evolved little since 1796, however we might
 wish otherwise.

 The Founders, powdered wigs and all, were infinitely more "hip"
 than we give them credit for, and understood something our smug
 modern politicians do not. They understood that to yield to the
 powerful temptation to "do good" abroad carries an enormously
 expensive and hidden price tag: the loss of our own liberty at
 home.

 They understood that "power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts
 absolutely," that handing the political class the power they
 demand to impose "benevolent global hegemony" on the rest of the
 world permits them to impose a malevolent domestic dictatorship
 on Americans at home.

 They understood, as too many well-intentioned Americans today do
 not, that once we compromise the safeguards against domestic
 tyranny written into our own system of law, no matter how
 compelling the rationale, we will rapidly cease to be the nation
 others once considered worth emulating. We would instead soon
 resemble the very nations we so confidently set out to "reform"
 and "enlighten."

 Chiang Kai-shek's Taiwan, along with South Korea and West
 Germany, demonstrated capitalism's clear superiority to
 socialism. Democratic reformer Chiang Ching-kuo's Taiwan, which
 witnessed the repeal of martial law and the enfranchisement of
 "native" Taiwanese, demonstrated that economic reforms are the
 harbinger of political reforms.

 Lee Teng-hui's "New Taiwan" on the other hand, demonstrates that
 "eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.” Lee Teng-hui is a
 corrupt Marcos/Duvalier-style petty despot who has shredded
 Taiwan's Constitution, modeled by ROC Founding Father Sun Yat-sen
 on our own American Constitution. Acutely aware of China's
 susceptibility to 

[CTRL] Imperial America

1999-08-10 Thread Alamaine Ratliff

 -Caveat Lector-


 August 9, 1999

 IMPERIAL AMERICA – A SICK SOCIETY?

 The news is not good. Take for example what happened at the
 Valdosta airport, in southern Georgia. A man boarded a flight for
 Atlanta that was going on to Istanbul, having paid for his ticket
 in cash. Shortly thereafter, the plane was stormed by an FBI
 "anti-terrorism" squad: the feds burst into the plane, hurtling
 down the aisles with weapons drawn, and converged on six
 passengers like guided missiles searching out Serbian civilians.



 THE CRIME OF PAYING CASH

 These unfortunates were pulled off the plane and detained for
 questioning. An FBI "command post" was set up at the airport, and
 a horde of bomb-sniffing dogs was unleashed. Flights were
 canceled, delayed, and aborted, as passengers scattered hither
 and yon. Everyone on board was questioned and asked, among other
 things, what they did for a living. Five of the six detainees,
 including a child, were released after questioning. The other
 one, whose identity was withheld for days, was held for nearly a
 week. What heinous crime did our Mystery Man commit? According to
 FBI spokeswoman Celestine Armstead, the feds were suspicious due
 to a "preponderance of circumstances." He paid in cash – a no-no
 in the federal "anti-terrorist" guidelines authored by Al Gore,
 that automatically "profiles" the paying customer as a potential
 "terrorist." What else? Our unfortunate sojourner was traveling
 alone, another suspicious no-no, and was initially described in
 various news accounts as "a white male" – and isn't that, alone,
 enough to seal his fate in Al Gore's America?

 FEDS RUN AMOK

 But what about the other five people dragged off the plane, in
 handcuffs, by feds run amok? Their great crime appears to be that
 they were seen talking and laughing with the Mystery Man before
 boarding. The feds say this led them to believe that they were
 acquainted with the suspect, which "led us to believe there was
 some sort of connection." In Al Gore's America, if you are even
 seen talking to someone who paid cash for an airplane ticket, you
 are in big trouble.

 THE MYSTERY MAN'S TRAVAILS

 The federal authorities – their syntactic grace equaled only by
 their credibility – claimed they launched the assault on the
 Delta flight because of a "potential threat to national security
 of a terrorism nature." Four hours later, these same officials
 announced that they were satisfied the man they led off in
 handcuffs was not a terrorist. "We have not been able to
 associate this individual at this time with any terrorist
 organization," said FBI special agent Thomas Bush. Does this mean
 that the Mystery Man was released? Of course not. The FBI said
 that he would be held "until all law enforcement issues have been
 resolved." Huh? He was not charged with any crime, aside from
 overstaying his visa by less than a month. If that is a federal
 crime meriting a SWAT-team assault on a plane filled with
 unsuspecting and terrorized passengers, then what about the
 millions of undocumented aliens pouring into this country every
 year? Why don't they merit a military campaign of equal ferocity?
 And why, if the Mystery Man was not a terrorist, was he not
 released immediately and allowed to return to his own country?

 THE JACKBOOT FACTOR

 And yet, this question seems far too narrow to encompass the
 whole of our concerns. In the face of the Valdosta airport
 incident, one has to ask: do we even want to live in an America
 where this is possible? If jackbooted thugs can haul me off an
 airplane at their discretion, and hold me indefinitely for the
 high crime of paying for an airline ticket in cash, is life in
 these United States even worth living? My answer: no, no, a
 thousand time no.

 REMEMBER WACO AND RUBY RIDGE

 A footnote to this story: The Mystery Man, finally revealed to be
 a Turk named Hakan Caglar, was eventually released by the FBI –
 but detained again, this time by Turkish authorities, upon his
 arrival in Istanbul. FBI spokeswoman, the ineffable Celestine
 Armstead, was not in the least bit moved to apologize to the
 other terrified passengers, or Mr. Caglar, who languishes in a
 Turkish jail on unspecified charges. Steadfastly refusing to say
 what crime Caglar committed or was thought to have committed, she
 said: "We're not embarrassed at all. We stand firmly behind what
 we did.'' Just like they did at Waco and Ruby Ridge.

 DEGENERATES RULE

 A society where this can happen is not worth preserving or
 protecting, not against terrorism or even against foreign
 invasion. The Valdosta story was first reported last week: since
 then, there has not even been any follow-up in the media, let
 alone a national outcry by the people. In a healthy society – in
 America, at any rate- a government that tried to pull this would
 be overthrown overnight. In better times, the feds would at least
 think twice before they pulled such a stunt. That there has been

- - Paging Juan Valdez - -

Separated by hundreds of miles and a couple of weeks, two events suggest
America's drug war will get much worse before it gets better.

First, a U.S. Army de Havilland RC-7 reconnaissance plane went missing
July 23 over Colombia while on an anti-drug assignment. Several days
later, the Pentagon announced the plane had hit a mountain, killing all
five aboard, including Capt. Jennifer J. Odom, the flight's pilot. They
were the first U.S. military personnel killed while drug warring in
Colombia.

The plane was part of the sensitive 204th Military Intelligence Battalion,
and little more information was provided about the mission or the
circumstances surrounding the accident. This immediately suggested that
perhaps Colombia's drug-running guerillas had a hand in the plane's
downing.

But guerilla involvement is something that the Clinton administration,
which made such a big deal over three servicemen who were roughed up and
spirited away to Belgrade, could not easily process, were it true. And, to
be fair, given its recent stands on women in the military and women's
issues in general, it cannot easily come out and say that an experienced
female pilot flew smack into a 9,000 foot mountain. So, it says just about
nothing.

The inescapable conclusion is that no one is truly minding the store with
regard to these operations, which seem to have been left to the DEA and
the Justice Department to manage. This should be a warning sign.

Warning sign number two came last week with the startling news that the
wife of the Army commander leading the U.S. forces in Colombia was charged
with conspiracy to distribute cocaine. The drug was shipped from an
American military base in Bogota to New York City. Several pounds of
cocaine were shipped in six separate shipments.

Laurie Hiett, the wife of Colonel James Hiett, told federal investigators
that she had mailed the packages for her husband's chauffeur.

Two possibilities come to mind with regard to Mrs. Hiett, both of which
must be keeping drug czar Barry McCaffrey awake tonight: 1) She did it,
which means no part of America's anti-drug effort is immune to the

up, which would show that no part of the American effort is beyond the

To top it off, McCaffrey recently returned from Colombia with a request to
spend $1 billion more to stop drug traffic in the region. At some point,
someone in Washington might want to ask exactly what that money will be
buying besides body bags and ruined lives.

This week the Kansas Board of Education becomes the latest public school
entity to toy with replacing evolution with creationism in school
classrooms. If adopted, the new curriculum would have no room for
discussion of natural selection, common ancestors, or the origin of the
universe.

Broader than evolution, such edicts strike at the heart of scientific
inquiry itself. The common approach is to assert that as mere theory, such
concepts do not have the standing of received truth. This sets up
scientific proof to be somehow inferior to that which everyone "knows" to
be true.

Science always wants to couch its findings with qualifications. Something
could pop up. Religion is under no such constraint. Yet, backers of the
creationists are increasingly using the bits of science which do support
their view to advance their cause.

Of course, if the public bodies who heard the arguments had the least bit
of sophistication, the effect would be exactly the opposite, a
demonstration of why science

8.9.99
MOSSAD and JFK Jr Crash

We received the following report from John DiNardo.

DiNardo transcribed portions of Texe Marrs' shortwave radio broadcast of
August 7, in which Marrs revealed MAJOR evidence that--for mutually
"beneficial" reasons"--pro-New World Order factions of the Israeli
Mossad, in conjunction with Dixie Mafia "godfathers" Bill and Hill
Clinton. had John Kennedy Jr. brutally MURDERED… due to the GROWING
threat Kennedy, his political plans and his appetite for digging the
dirt and exposing the truth on a number of high-level, hard-core
conspiracies in his magazine posed for the New World Order power elite. 

Information made public by Marrs correlates solidly with that received
from a number of other sources regarding this grotesque, evil, malignant
and disgusting act.

Forget all the bullshit about Camelot and the rest of that nonsense.
JFK Jr. had in fact lived his whole life rejecting that inane, trite and
worthless nonsense about the Kennedy's being America's 'royalty" and all
the rest of the hoopla that goes with it. He made his mark on this world
ON HIS OWN, without cashing in on his family name nor even on the
understandable affection and goodwill that so many in this country and
the world felt for him, his sister and mother.

He had shown himself as of late, in the work he had been doing with
George magazine, to have been a fairly astute, hardheaded and savvy
political reporter WILLING TO LOOK behind the green certain and find out
what was REALLY going with the "puppet masters."

News of Kennedy's impending political moves obviously brought this
looming "problem" to a head for the gangsters and murderers in control
of our country's political processes. Kennedy could not POSSIBLY be
trusted to "play the game" according to the rules laid out by New World
Order gangsters. His father and uncle had ALREADY proved that the
Kennedys and their "risk-taking" genetics were uncontrollable wild cards
who apparently actually had feelings for the conditions of the
less-fortunate members of humanity and were willing to act accordingly;
and worse, actually BELIEVED (to some extent) that democracy was a good idea.

We at NewsHawk are tired of bringing to the public CLEAR EVIDENCE from
virtually every imaginable quarter that Kennedy's "plane crash" was no
accident; only to have mushbrains and nitwits regurgitate the infantile
garbage on the "crash" they've been force-fed by the omnipresent mass
media machine.

To the extent the American people WILLINGLY allow themselves to be lied
to, dumbed-down, distracted with mindless mass media garbage and drowned
in a sea of credit-card materialism, when the official lies--such as in
the case of the Kennedy and Bessette murders--are so OUTRAGEOUSLY
BLATANT AND TRANSPARENT, they will indeed get the government they deserve.

Crooks, thugs, murderers, filth and vermin of the most putrid and
despicable kind.

And by the way; DON'T kid yourself and assume that ONLY Billy-boy, Hill
and other pseudo-"Democrat" gangsters from the U.S. were involved in
murdering Kennedy. 

A NUMBER of respondents have made note of the following most interesting fact.

George W. Bush, a man who has previously been pretty up front about his
distaste for non-white, non-Aryan human beings (case in point; Bush and
wife are the target of a major lawsuit in Texas alleging severely
discriminatory practices by the Bushes in real estate transactions), for
some peculiar reason decided not long ago to hold a rally in Newark, New
Jersey; a city with a SIZABLE percentage of non-white residents.

This is pretty odd in itself. Not many minorities are fooled by this
closet crypto-Nazi and he obviously doesn't genuinely expect to get much
electoral support from these quarters. WHY THEN did Bush hold the Newrk rally?

Why did Bush spend the money bring his entire campaign entourage
roadshow to Newark?

Maybe the date had something to do with it. Bush and his crew were in
the Newark area on July 16. Not far from the Caldwell, N.J. airport
where JFK Jr. kept his Piper Saratoga.

You know, the one Kennedy forget how to fly that night, when he was
about to land.

5 wounded at Jewish community center in L.A.

Copyright © 1999 Nando Media
Copyright © 1999 Associated Press

By JEFF WONG

LOS ANGELES (August 10, 1999 4:08 p.m. EDT
http://www.nandotimes.com) - A young man sprayed the lobby of a
suburban Jewish community center with gunfire Tuesday, wounding five
people, including three children, before escaping. A manhunt was under
way.

Police searched the grounds of the North Valley Jewish Community Center
and the Granada Hills neighborhood, police Cmdr. Dave Kalish said.

"He burst into the lobby of the community center and began firing 20 to 30
shots from a 9 mm Uzi. He then walked down a hallway, left the building
and left campus," fire spokesman Steve Ruda said. He said the shooter,
described as a white male, was in his teens.

The motive for the shooting was unknown. Authorities said they had no idea
if it was a hate crime.

Twenty-two other little children were taken from the center to a nearby
temple after the 10:50 a.m. shooting. Ruda described the children as "wide-
eyed." The children were attending a summer camp at the center.

Ruda said an 8-year-old boy was in very critical condition. The older
woman, whose age was given as 55 or 65, also was in critical condition.
Two other boys, ages 8 and 6, were in stable condition. A 16-year-old girl
was in stable condition.

Paramedics and police descended on the center in the initial confused
moments after the gunfire.

One woman was seen being treated on a sidewalk adjacent to the parking
lot. A young boy was rushed out of a rear building on a stretcher and put
aboard a fire helicopter. Groups of little children were led away by adults
and officers.

Worried parents gathered behind yellow police tape as officers worked to
assure them that their children were all right. Some wept as they clutched
each other, waiting for word of their children.

"He's OK! He's OK!" one mother shouted when she heard about the fate of
her son.

Other parents spoke with school officials who tried to arrange rendezvous
point with their children elsewhere in the area.

Rabbi Marvin Hier, dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, said that older
children from the Jewish center were touring the Museum of Tolerance at
the time. They were not immediately told of what happened at the center,
he said.

At the White House, Vice President Al Gore offered Los Angeles Mayor
Richard Riordan federal assistance in capturing the gunman. He offered
his thoughts and prayers to the victims and their families.

"We're monitoring the situation very closely," Gore said. "There is still a
great deal we don't know, except the fact that we've seen a neighborhood
and a community shattered by violence."

The North Valley Jewish Community Center, 30 miles northwest of
downtown in the Granada Hills area of the San Fernando Valley, provides
nursery programs, child care and camp activities.

The center has large main building, a smaller houselike structure, pool and
tennis courts.

Parents and relatives in tears rushed to the school.

"I have a granddaughter and don't know how she is or anything," one
distraught woman said.

SWEATSHOP SUIT SETTLED

Nordstrom, Cutter  Buck, J. Crew, and Gymboree have become the first 
retailers to settle claims against them in a class action lawsuit contesting 
sweatshop conditions in garment factories on the Mariana island of Saipan. 
This is the first time a group of US retailers have agreed to create a joint 
independent monitoring system of their contractors. The settlement also 
prohibits the use of "recruitment fees" in Saipan factories making apparel 
for US retailers. The suit was brought by UNITE, Global Exchange, Sweatshop 
Watch, and Asia Law Caucus.

The settlement establishes a million dollar fund to finance the monitoring, 
provide partial damages to the workers, and create a public education 
campaign. The new standards include the payment of overtime, providing safe 
food and drinking water, and guaranteeing employees basic civil rights. 

An Amherst, Massachusetts-based non-profit firm, Verité, will monitor 
compliance with the standards outlined in the settlement, including 
establishing an "ombudsman" on Saipan. The settlement gives Verité 
far-reaching powers to oversee the conduct of contractors working for 
Nordstrom, Cutter  Buck, J. Crew and Gymboree. This oversight will include 
surveillance, announced and unannounced visits to facilities, and 
investigations of worker complaints. Verité is also empowered to remedy 
violations of these standards by, among other things, forcing the payment of 
back wages and terminating contracts where a pattern and practice of such 
violations exists.

TRAIN DEATHS

Two law enforcement officers have been awarded about $300,000 each from a 
documentary filmmaker by a jury in a defamation case involving the deaths of 
two boys who apparently stumbled on a drug/money drop in the backwoods of 
Arkansas. This was not your typical defamation case as part of the argument 
of the officers were that they were narcotics agents investigating the same 
prosecutor who named them as having been implicated in the case. The charge 
was repeated in a film about the incident. The prosecutor is now in jail on 
racketeering charges. There have been about a half-dozen failed and flawed 
investigations of the deaths. 

The trial revealed little new information about the case. The outcome is 
tangential to the key question of how the boys ended up murdered -- run  
over by a train after being beaten and placed on the tracks by persons 
unknown. The best information suggests the boys stumbled upon a major 
operation for passing drugs, money and bullion to Arkansas underworld 
figures involved in the Iran-Contra drugs-for-weapons trade and that these 
figures were, in turn, closely tied to the Arkansas political machine. 

THE CULTURE OF IMPUNITY

John Passacantando of Ozone Action reports that the two Reagan-appointed 
judges who ruled against the EPA on new air pollution standards --Stephen 
Williams and Douglas Ginsberg -- regularly go on free junkets sponsored by 
the corporate-backed Foundation for Research on Economics and the 
Environment. Ginsberg also sits on the group's board of directors.

THE GOP has set a new record for the purchase of elections. It has 
established a Team $1 Million for 100 potential individual or corporate 
donors willing to give $1 million over a four-year election cycle. It 
shouldn't be too hard to do. George Bush Jr. raised $37 million just between 
March and June. TPR has argued for some time that communities need not wait 
for legislation to act on such corrupt behavior; a non-partisan citizen 
uprising creating community and state coalitions of churches, organizations, 
and socially responsible individuals and businesses could declare such 
excesses unacceptable 

Re: [CTRL] New claim over Ark of the Covenant

1999-08-10 Thread Eagle 1

 -Caveat Lector-

Hello Jamie,
You're right...  it is pointless to a degree,  because no human will ever
lay hold of the ark of the covenant,  and live.
Wyatt is chasing a pipe dream of power and wealth,
and those who believe he's not...
well, they're fooled by the disguise, and choose to remain so.

On the other hand,  the subject matter itself, is not pointless.
The fact of the matter is that the real truth is out there.
Some will have it in their hand all of their lives and never know
they possess it.  Some will realize it,  and hold it sacred in
that same right hand.  Others will throw it away with both hands,
never knowing the priceless value of what they consider
pointless,  but one day will realize the immense wealth they once
possesed and trashed.

The power of truth lies in the power of the hand,
and one is marked with what they do or don't do with the
knowledge and information they are priviledged to have been given.

The truth is the only absolute,
and no one,  neither you nor me,
nor anyone but God Himself has
a corner on the absolute truth.

However,  one truth I can impart without question,
humans tend to err,  and so by your suggestion,
I will agree to disagree with you regarding the subject of
the ark of the covenant.

[CTRL] Thought Crimes! Senators Move to Criminalize Internet Content

1999-08-10 Thread K

 -Caveat Lector-

http://206.54.108.130/19990810or.htm

A Y2KNEWSWIRE.COM Feature Article

Thought Crimes! Senators Move to Criminalize Internet Content
The latest attempt to censor free access to information on the
Internet goes after discussions of "unapproved drugs." If these
Senators have their way, you may land in jail for merely linking to a
page that talks about colloidal silver. Join Y2K Newswire is taking
a stand against this Orweillian endeavor...
The Internet is bad for Big Government. It allows the free
communication of ideas that can't be controlled from Washington,
and it allows the low-cost education of the American public on
ideas such as banking, economics and taxes. China learned this
early on and put in place filters that prevent "unapproved"
information from moving through the country's computer networks.
(All Internet access in China is government-monopolized). This
information, by the way, includes topics as dangerous as, say,
meditation or Buddhism -- both of which the Communist Chinese
government considers a threat to "state security." In fact, the
Chinese government is currently engaged in hacking these
meditation web sites, destroying their content.
The United States government, as of late, seems eager to borrow
as many Commie-style controls from China as it can... and this
effort isn't limited only to Democrats. The latest is a proposed bill,
now backed by eleven Senators and sponsored by Republican
Senator Orrin Hatch (Utah), hopes to make it illegal to post or link
to a web site that discusses the use of unapproved drugs.
While the text of such a bill is not yet publicly available, it's no leap
in thinking to suppose it might apply to all unapproved drugs, not
just hard core ones like cocaine. Thus, if passed in such a form,
the bill would give the FDA total control over all drug-related web
content.
Want to talk about colloidal silver on the web? Too bad: you'll do
jail time if Senators Hatch and Feinstein have their way. Want to
link to a site that talks about colloidal silver? Say hello to Ben
Dover in cell number nine. Want to discuss the all-natural herb,
Stevia? You'll be a felon.
One step further and the law prevents you from bad-mouthing those
substances approved as "safe" by the FDA. Did your aunt go blind
from drinking gallons of aspartame-laced diet soda? You might
someday go to jail for sharing that on the 'net. It's "unapproved."
YOUR FREEDOM UNDER ATTACK
Let's face it: If such a bill were to pass, it would crush the freedoms
inherent in the Internet -- the very same freedoms that allow sites
like Y2K Newswire to exist. That's how any government takes
away power from its people, by the way: control the flow of
information. Ever wonder why nearly every mainstream media outlet
keeps telling you Y2K has been solved even though none of them
have verified much beyond the so-called "facts" in the press
releases? It's because they are largely controlled by the same few
people. That way, all messages can be approved. And the
message they want to get out right now -- to save the banks,
mostly -- is that Y2K is no big deal.
Distributed information resources scare the heck out of every power-
hungry government. Any technology that gives individuals the
power to cheaply reach millions of other people is "dangerous" and
must be immediately attacked. That's exactly why this attack on
"drug content" has begun. Once the bill is passed and the public is
comfortable with the intrusion, Senators will move on to "guns."
Should that succeed, (making it illegal to discuss guns on a web
page) the attack can continue into other "unapproved" areas.
In barely a generation, the Internet is 100% government-controlled,
and you have -- guess what? -- China! Courtesy of Republican and
Democratic Senators alike. The only politicians fighting this will be
Libertarians. Congressman Ron Paul, namely.

If you want America to become Communist China, just sit back
and do nothing. On the other hand...

[CTRL] Fw: Granada Hills shooting (fwd)

1999-08-10 Thread Lloyd Miller

 -Caveat Lector-

A few moments ago, a lone gunman barged into a
Jewish day care center and shot five people, two
adults and three children. One of the children remain
in critical condition. The police are combing the area
looking for the shooter.

There are three possibilities:

1) the gunman was pissed off at the place, or someone who worked there.

2) the gunman was a right-wing bigot who hated Jewish people, and just
wanted to strike a blow for "white supremacy."

3) the gunman was brainwashed by the "hidden government" to strike at
this particular day care center, to piss off the Jews, who will then
join
in the national chorus to make guns illegal, and strip us of our right
to
bear arms.

Take your pick...

George Bush


George Bush served as vice president through the Reagan presidency from
1981 to 1989. In January 1989, he succeeded Reagan as President. It was
in his capacity as President that Bush committed what will likely become
his most memorable act in connection with Iran/contra. On December 24,
1992, twelve days before former Secretary of Defense Caspar W.
Weinberger was to go to trial, Bush pardoned him.1 In issuing pardons to
Weinberger and five other Iran/contra defendants, President Bush charged
that Independent Counsel's prosecutions represented the
``criminalization of policy differences.''

1 President Bush also pardoned former National Security Adviser Robert
C. McFarlane, former Assistant Secretary of State Elliott Abrams, former
CIA Central American Task Force Chief Alan D. Fiers, Jr., former CIA
Deputy Director for Operations Clair E. George, and former CIA
Counter-Terrorism Chief Duane R. Clarridge. The Weinberger pardon marked
the first time a President ever pardoned someone in whose trial he might
have been called as a witness, because the President was knowledgeable
of factual events underlying the case.

The criminal investigation of Bush was regrettably incomplete. Before
Bush's election as President, the investigation was primarily concerned
with the operational conspiracy and the careful evaluation of the cases
against former National Security Adviser John M. Poindexter and Lt. Col.
Oliver L. North of the National Security Council staff, prior to their
indictment in March 1988. This included a review of any exculpatory
material that might have shown authorization for their conduct. In the
course of this investigation, Vice President Bush was deposed on January
11, 1988.

A year later Bush was President-elect, and OIC was engaged in the
intensive preparation for the trial of North, which began on January 31,
1989. After the completion of the trials of North and Poindexter and the
pleas of guilty of retired Air Force Maj. Gen. Richard V. Secord and
Albert Hakim, OIC broadened its investigation to those supporting and
supervising Poindexter and North. This investigation developed a large
amount of new material with which it intended to question President
Bush. His interrogation was left to the end because, as President, he

15.
The Timing

If we are to believe The Rumor . . . the assassination was to be timed to
coincide exactly with the collapse of Allied. "Controlled" Lee Oswald, the
key man to front the actual shooting, had been chosen.

The two events now drew closer together.

Allied's erratic operation was becoming alarmingly noticeable. Its head-long
careening along the financial highway could go on only for a few more weeks
or months.

At this point, the decision was made to bring both sides of the parallel
factors together for the big collision.

Consider carefully the fantastic timing of two crucial phases of the
"collision course".

There was to come a point when all caution would be virtually abandoned for
Tino and Allied. An "anything goes" course to bring in big cash had to be
quickly followed. This point was reached when the date of the assassination
had been selected . . . and the assassin was placed in the location to do the
shooting!

It would seem that in the last part of September and early October, Dallas
was chosen. The Depository area was chosen . . . and Oswald therefore had to
be placed in that area. As soon as he was placed in that position, the New
York operation could throw its switch and Allied and Tino and the whole
commodities market could be placed square on a destruction course—but not
until he was so placed!

On the morning of October 14th, a phone call from Dallas indicated to the
"controllers" that Lee Harvey Oswald was locating on a job at that moment and
would start that week at the Texas School Book Depository (Commission Exhibit
993). On the afternoon of that same day, Tino De Angelis threw all caution to
the winds and sent (in a completely suicidal business gesture) the first
forged American

Express Warehouse receipts for six million dollars worth of phantom oil to
Wall Street. In the next few weeks, he sent an additional 33 million dollars
worth of forged papers. It would seem as many were sent as could be absorbed
by Wall Street before the assassination took place!

If there is truth to The Rumor, intelligent planning would have precluded
throwing Allied's crash-for-money journey into high gear until the gunman was
definitely placed at the scene. Astonishingly enough, the facts bear out that
this is exactly what happened!

Bunge's position was now to change completely. Rather than support Allied
with its strength, it now seemed to prepare to weaken it for the big crash.
In early October, Tino requested an increase in loans from Bunge . . . and to
his astonishment Bunge refused!

Simultaneously with the placing of the forged American Express paper in Wall
Street (and directly upon the heels of Oswald's stepping into the Depository
job), De Angelis started check-kiting on an unbelievable scale. From this
point on Tino manipulated cashiers' checks for 17.5 million dollars. He was
using Manufacturers Hanover and warehouse receipts for oil.

On Friday, November 15th, the whole fantastic net was drawn in a bit closer.
According to Miller, "Shortly before 2:00 p.m., short selling started to
dominate the market. Rumors swept the trading floor that Bunge was behind the
selling . . . "

Again from the same account of that day, Miller quotes Sam Ingal of Allied,
as concluding that Bunge had "knocked the market apart".

As of the following Monday morning, De Angelis ("controlled" to wreck his own
firm and the market along with it) had to be used to slow down the ultimate
burst of the bubble. The parade through Dallas was at noon on Friday. Allied
could not collapse completely until after the market closed on Thursday
afternoon. What did The Group do?

Just about anything that would stall the inevitable.

On Monday, Tino wrote a personal check for over three hundred thousand
dollars to cover a sum due Williston a Beane, a brokerage house he was
heavily involved with. This would keep them quiet until about Thursday . . .
when it would bounce. After that . . . well . . .?

A forged order for Bunge's oil in Tino's tanks was issued and American
Express Warehouse unwittingly issued warehouse receipts for more than eleven
million dollars to a brokerage firm which gave them to two banks, Continental
Illinois and Chase Manhattan.

Evaluating The Structure Of The Rumor

Before we move on to the execution of the crime, let us admit that it is
simpler to accept the theory of the lone killer Oswald than even to consider
The Rumor. It is far more comfortable to embrace the idea that Oswald's
momentary madness alone caused the tragedy and that after it was over, we
were left with just a bad memory. But we are haunted with the realization
that the facts simply do not fit this concept.

We are left with Mr. One a nervous, guilt-ridden man who fears the exposure
of The Rumor.
What supports this conjecture? Penn Jones, Jr., editor and publisher of the
Texas newspaper, The Midlothian Mirror, has established in his excellent
reports that at least thirteen persons who possessed possibly crucial
information about the assassination have met with mysterious deaths.

Penn Jones has probably done more than anyone outside of the official
investigative agencies to turn up new facts about the case. In his reports,
Mr. Jones makes it quite clear that someone (Mr. One) is still tidying up
loose ends.

One renowned member of the American press was aware of The Rumor and it
troubled her. She was the late Dorothy Kilgallen, widely read gossip
columnist and feature writer. The only reporter who had a private interview
with Ruby, she must not be discounted simply because she dealt in the
sensational. Dorothy numbered among her news sources, as this author has good
reason to know, some of the most reliable authorities in high positions in
the nation. She also had an army of press-agents and crackpots feeding her
unfounded stories. If it so pleased her to fill a column with interesting
readable fluff, she was not above doing exactly that. As the daughter of a
famed veteran reporter, when the big story came along, Dorothy knew very well
how to pinpoint the truth and cut away all superfluous nonsense. She was the
woman dubbed by both Damon Runyon and Ernest Hemingway as "the best reporter
of our time."

The simple facts of the matter are these: Dorothy went to Dallas. She
unearthed something so sensational that it would appear that she was thrown a
healthy "bone" to keep her away from her typewriter for the moment. The
"bone" was an accurate advance exclusive scoop of part of the testimony of
the Warren Commission. It was an unprecedented favor granted to her; it was
probably done to divert her from going in certain other directions in her
investigation of the case. This, in the opinion of the author, was not done
by the Government! In August of 1964, her exclusive bylined scoop made every
reporter in America jealous. This, however, didn't really satisfy Dorothy.
Underneath was a craving to print what she thought she had really uncovered.

As a willful spirited loner in her field, it was inevitable that when the
mood eventually struck her, she would "leak" some of what was evidently
intended never to reach print. She did exactly that.

On the night of December 21, 1964, she suddenly cast aside caution. In the
middle of her column, after an innocuous item about Judy Garland, Dorothy
switched into high-gear and wrote the following item. Her heading indicates
she was absolutely sure her source was beyond question. It was


There were indeed two rifles in play at the moment of the assassination. This
would confirm the public testimony of the Governor of Texas and his wife
whose observations, if accurate, would mean there had to be bullets from more
than one source.

It was never, according to The Rumor, ever intended to be any other way.
However, before we get to the second killer, consider the choice of Lee
Oswald!

Mr. One had Lee Oswald "tested" very carefully to see if he would crumple
when the crucial moment came or would calmly follow his control instructions.

These tests came in two stages.

The first test was designed to see if, under instructions, Lee would shoot at
General Walker, a prominent public figure. He was given the instructions.

Lee took his rifle. He met an aide of Mr. One's. They drove to Walker's
house. Lee calmly aimed the rifle and as soon as the other man saw that he
would and did pull the trigger, he deliberately knocked the rifle off-target
and led Oswald away to the

ANOTHER Mass Shooting--
What's Behind All the Gun Violence
Incredible Morphing Gunman Sought
© 1999 NewsHawk Inc.

We don't even want to TALK about how prevalent mass shootings in public
places have become. I mean who could ever believe that all these mass
shootings are just occurring by chance, at random--just because a lot of
people have been having a bad day. Well that's probably true, but
certainly nothing new either (having a bad day that is).

I think there's a little more to this phenomenon than that. If you catch
my drift.

Columbine didn't do the trick as a gun grab, so the global gangsters are
trying to create widespread hysteria in the nation about guns with this
unending series of such incidents carried out by MK-Ultra/"Manchurian
Candidate"-type mind controlled (covert) government agents.

It's completely illogical, as Spock would say, to think this whole
phenomenon is NOT being contrived and planned.

Now that school's out for the summer, gotta have these things go on in
other public places.

Tragically it's becoming almost predictable; AS is the fact that this
latest incident occurred at a Jewish community center in the L.A.
suburbs. Interestingly as well, this happened to be the ONLY such
incident in which the perpetrator made a total, clean getaway.

Which leads to my next point. This guy shoots up a Jewish center,
maiming five people (tragically one 5-year-old boy is in extremely
critical condition) and escapes completely. And guess what? FIRST, LAPD
and other officials issue ONE description of the gunman--based on, one
would IMAGINE, accounts from EYEWITNESSES--but THEN later issue a wildly
DIFFERENT description of the SAME PERSON.

So what I want to know is this. Why did police FIRST describe the gunman
as "tall, young and wearing a black shirt," BUT LATER put out a
completely contradictory description of someone who was "bald, about 40,
wearing green clothing?"

I mean, wait a minute. Did all the EYEWITNESSES suddenly say that the
shooter looked completely different than they had first thought?

Eh? What IS going on here?

People saw this man coming in, and saw him shooting. How, by any
believable means, could the "official" description of someone who shot
FIVE people in front of dozens of witnesses CHANGE SO DRASTICALLY?

Please. Let's get real.

There is without ANY doubt something wrong with THIS picture.

I'm getting a LOT of that kind of problem lately. I must need a new
picture tube. 


See for yourself. Read the verbatim excerpt below.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A man opened fire with a submachine gun in a
Jewish community center Tuesday and hit five people, severely wounding a
5-year-old boy before escaping and evading a massive manhunt.

Police refused to speculate on the motive behind the latest in a wave of
mass shootings in United States over the past five months but one Jewish
leader said the attack "brought together the twin evils of anti-Semitism
and gun violence."

Panicked parents converged on the North Valley Jewish Community Center
in suburban Granada Hills as police with rifles and bullet proof vests
fruitlessly combed a square mile (km) area for the gunman, declaring
that he had apparently escaped.

The center provided day care, nursery programs and camp activities for
about 300 children. Most of the children were outside when the gunman
stormed the building.

AUTHORITIES, WHO ORIGINALLY DESCRIBED THE SHOOTER AS TALL, YOUNG AND
WEARING A BLACK SHIRT, CHANGED THE DESCRIPTION TO SAY THE MAN WAS BALD,

Texas newspaper, The Midlothian Mirror, has established in his excellent
reports that at least thirteen persons who possessed possibly crucial
information about the assassination have met with mysterious deaths.

Penn Jones has probably done more than anyone outside of the official
investigative agencies to turn up new facts about the case. In his reports,
Mr. Jones makes it quite clear that someone (Mr. One) is still tidying up
loose ends.

One renowned member of the American press was aware of The Rumor and it
troubled her. She was the late Dorothy Kilgallen, widely read gossip
columnist and feature writer. The only reporter who had a private interview
with Ruby, she must not be discounted simply because she dealt in the
sensational. Dorothy numbered among her news sources, as this author has good
reason to know, some of the most reliable authorities in high positions in
the nation. She also had an army of press-agents and crackpots feeding her
unfounded stories. If it so pleased her to fill a column with interesting
readable fluff, she was not above doing exactly that. As the daughter of a
famed veteran reporter, when the big story came along, Dorothy knew very well
how to pinpoint the truth and cut away all superfluous nonsense. She was the
woman dubbed by both Damon Runyon and Ernest Hemingway as "the best reporter
of our time."

The simple facts of the matter are these: Dorothy went to Dallas. She
unearthed something so sensational that it would appear that she was thrown a
healthy "bone" to keep her away from her typewriter for the moment. The
"bone" was an accurate advance exclusive scoop of part of the testimony of
the Warren Commission. It was an unprecedented favor granted to her; it was
probably done to divert her from going in certain other directions in her
investigation of the case. This, in the opinion of the author, was not done
by the Government! In August of 1964, her exclusive bylined scoop made every
reporter in America jealous. This, however, didn't really satisfy Dorothy.
Underneath was a craving to print what she thought she had really uncovered.

As a willful spirited loner in her field, it was inevitable that when the
mood eventually struck her, she would "leak" some of what was evidently
intended never to reach print. She did exactly that.

On the night of December 21, 1964, she suddenly cast aside caution. In the
middle of her column, after an innocuous item about Judy Garland, Dorothy
switched into high-gear and wrote the following item. Her heading indicates
she was absolutely sure her source was beyond question. It was

MEMO TO PRESIDENT JOHNSON: "'Please check with the State Department ... the
leaders of our Armed Forces or our chief scientists, to discover what, if
anything, we are doing to explore the ramifications of 'cloud-busting' which
in its refined stages means thought control [our emphasis] . . . and could
change the history of the world. We could catch up if someone in command gave
the word before it was too late."

Later, in the fall of the next year (September 3, 1965), Dorothy Kilgallen
wrote that she knew that if the whole story of the reason for Marina and
Lee's behavior ever came out, it would split open the front pages of
newspapers all over the world.

We believe it was The Rumor she was writing about when in that same column
she warned, "The story isn't going to die as long as there's a real reporter
alive—and there are a lot of them alive."

Citing Strengthened Economy, Brazil Central Bank Will End Formal Request That
Banks Maintain Trade  Interbank Lines

 NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 10, 1999--The following statement was
released today by the Central Bank of Brazil:  "In March 1999,
international banks led by five regional coordinating banks agreed to
Brazil's request to maintain their trade and interbank lines at February 28,
1999 levels. These banks were Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, Banque Paribas,
Citibank, Deutsche Bank and HSBC Holdings. Later on, Caixa Geral de Depositos
and Banca Commerciale Italiana were chosen as coordinators in their
respective countries.

 "Citing the strengthening of the Brazilian economy and renewed
confidence in the country, as demonstrated by banks' voluntary increase of
trade and interbank lines to Brazil, the Brazilian economic authorities are
addressing all participating banks to announce that, from September 1st
onwards, it will no longer be necessary to formally ask foreign commercial
banks to maintain their trade and interbank lines to Brazil as originally
requested in March. Instead, they will rely on market conditions going
forward.

 "The Brazilian authorities noted that developments in the Brazilian
economy since March have been significantly better than expected. Sound
monetary and fiscal policies have led Brazil to fulfill the targets agreed in
the IMF program. GDP has begun to recover at the end of the first quarter of
1999, inflation has performed significantly better than projected, the
current account deficit was reduced, developments in the capital account have
exceeded expectations and FDI flows have shown considerable strength. The
President of the Central Bank, Arminio Fraga, noted that the positive
response of the banks to Brazil's request had an initial stabilizing effect
and was a critical element in Brazil's economic improvement. The
establishment of a system to monitor bank lines was a productive initiative.
We will keep it operating, he added. The Central Bank will also maintain a
close dialogue with individual banks and expects banks to continue to respond
as positively as they have done in the last six months. Mr. Fraga also
expressed the recognition of Brazil to the role played by the IMF, the BIS,
as well as by Central Banks and Ministries of Finance that participated in
the establishment and implementation of the monitoring process.

 "William R. Rhodes, Vice Chairman of Citigroup and Citibank, welcomed
Brazil's announcement. Mr. Rhodes, who was asked by Brazil to help implement
the request as worldwide and North America coordinator, stated that the
banks' response was very positive. 'In fact, a number of banks not only
maintained but also increased their trade and interbank lines,' Mr. Rhodes
noted. He recalled that the country's economic progress during this period
permitted the Government of Brazil to return to the international markets
last April."

Re: [CTRL] legal cases about recovered memory

Hi !

Below please find two legal cases acknowledging the existence of recovered
memory.

Sincerely,  Neil Brick

These may be triggering for survivors of abuse.

Excerpts from http://www.jimhopper.com/memory-decision (the first page (.com)
links to other pages of interest also)

"The Validity of Recovered Memory: Decision of a US District Court" Judge
Edward F. Harrington,  Presentation by Jim Hopper, Ph.D. The legal

Some quotes from the decision:
"The factors to be considered when deciding if proffered testimony is
valid 'scientific knowledge,' and therefore reliable, are. . ." (p.3)
"This Court finds that the reliability of the phenomenon of repressed

"Dr. van der Kolk testified that repressed memories is not a scientific
controversy, but... a political and forensic one" (p.5).
"Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV,
1994)...also recognizes the concept of repressed memories" (p.7).
"in considering the admissibility of repressed memory evidence," the
court must rule on the "validity of the theory itself...  For the law to
reject a diagnostic category generally accepted by those who practice the art

OPINION

FELDMAN, Justice.

We granted review to determine how the statute of limitations applies to a
case of delayed discovery attributable to alleged repressed memory of severe
sexual abuse. Plaintiff claims that after many years she recalled the abuse
but for a prolonged period was incapacitated to the point of being unable to
assert her legal rights. We examine application of both the discovery rule
and the tolling statute. We have jurisdiction pursuant to Ariz. Const. art.
VI, § 5(3) and Ariz.R.Civ.App. 23.

FACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY

Jane Doe (Plaintiff) alleges that her father sexually abused her during the
years 1963 to 1970 when she was between the ages of eight and fifteen.
Because of the trauma associated with the abuse, Plaintiff completely
repressed all memory of the events.

Plaintiff alleges that until 1989, she regarded her mother and father as
ideal parents and considered them her best friends. Plaintiff had never seen
a therapist or required psychiatric treatment, although she did suffer from
eating disorders. As an adult, Plaintiff had only sparse and vague memories
of her childhood, except for time spent with her paternal grandparents, with
whom she was very close. Plaintiff's paternal grandmother died in late 1988
and her paternal grandfather died in March 1989. A few months later, while
watching a television program that examined the issue of incest, Plaintiff
experienced a flashback memory of her father sexually assaulting her.

As a result, Plaintiff developed feelings of hysteria, even panic, and
immediately sought counseling. In the first emergency therapy session,
Plaintiff alluded to the flashback she experienced earlier that day. However,
during the next six months of therapy (first weekly then twice per week),
Plaintiff could not discuss any specific incidents

Israel Keeps An Eye on Syrian Missile Programs

Summary:

Israel's Haaretz newspaper cited Israeli military sources on
August 10 as saying that Syria is developing a long range
surface-to-surface missile capable of striking targets as far
away as Ankara.  In acknowledging this development, the Israeli
government was not attempting to undermine the peace talks, but
to point out that Israel remains aware of Syria's military
potential and will not abandon security for peace.

Analysis:

The Israeli newspaper Haaretz on August 10, quoting unnamed
Israeli military officials, reported that Syria is developing a
new class of surface-to-surface missiles. The new missiles are
reportedly being developed with technical assistance from Iran
and will have a range of more than 500 kilometers (310 miles).
Fired from mobile launchers, of which Syria has 60, these
missiles will be able to strike any point inside Israel and reach
targets as far away as Ankara, Turkey.

In 1983, the Syrians received a batch of SS-21 Scud-B missiles
from the Soviet Union. These only have a range of 120 kilometers
(75 miles) and are accurate to within 50 meters. This means that
only Syrian Scuds placed close to the Golan cease-fire line
dividing Syria from Israel could hit southern Israel where the
Israelis are believed to have their strategic missiles deployed.
This makes the Scud, Syria's main strategic deterrent, very
vulnerable to Israeli air power.  Rumors have persisted since
1989 that Damascus was attempting to import the M-9 short-range
ballistic missile from China to alleviate this tactical problem.
The M-9 is a very accurate, advanced, mobile, solid-fuel missile
with a 500 kilometer (310 mile) range. However, after receiving a
substantial amount of U.S. pressure, Beijing reportedly backed
out of the deal.

Iran however, is believed to have developed its new indigenous
missile, the Shahab-3, with assistance from Pakistan, who, in
turn, is believed to have copied the missile from China's M-9.
One significant improvement offered by the Iranian missile is
better guidance.  Another is, of course, longer range.  If the
new Syrian missile under production is anything like these other
"indigenously" developed missiles, then the strategic situation
will shift dramatically. This would mean that Syrian Scuds could
hit any part of Israel from a larger launching box and, more
importantly, that the missiles could hit their targets more
precisely.

But despite the possible technical advancements, it is important
to note that the development of this missile does not inherently
raise the chance that the Israeli-Syria peace deal will fall
through. Syrian President Hafez Assad is known to hedge his bets,
always pursuing multiple and simultaneous tracks in his foreign
policy. On one hand he is making peace with Israel. On the other
he is equipping his nation to gain greater strategic flexibility.
This is neither surprising, nor necessarily alarming to the
Israelis.  So why mention it?

The reasons for reporting this story are three-fold. First, this
is a simple acknowledgement that Israel is well aware of what is
going on and is nobody's fool.  Israel is not going into
negotiations blindly, and when dealing with Syria, Israel will
verify more than trust.

This is a message to Damascus, but it is also a message to the
Israeli public.  Ironically, reporting the new Syrian missile
capability is an attempt to undermine opposition to the peace
process.  In acknowledging the story first, the Barak
administration can play down any possible political land mines
that the Israeli opposition could lay on the road to peace. It
does not mean that the issue will not come up during the process,
but it does portray the administration as pragmatic and aware of
the strategic environment in which it is negotiating.

The report also serves to reinforce Turkish-Israeli relations. As
mentioned before, the new missiles, if mounted on mobile
launchers, have the capability to hit a large portion of Turkey,
including Ankara.  In reporting that Syria is developing a new
missile, Israel is signaling to Turkey that it has not completely
forgotten its military cooperation agreement with Turkey.
Similarly, this message is

Group wants united religion
  Is goal mere co-operation
  or creation of one faith?


  By Jon E. Dougherty
  © 1999 WorldNetDaily.com

  Representatives of all religious faiths from some 50
countries
  have held regular meetings since 1995 for the purpose
of
  creating one global religion, according to a United
Religions
  Initiative.

  According to the group's draft charter, the effort is
"the result
  of a growing global conversation about the creation of
the
  United Religions -- a daily forum for cooperation and
  peacemaking among religions and spiritual
communities."

  During their four-year history, URI has sponsored
numerous
  global events, six regional conferences and three
global
  summits in San Francisco from 1996 to 1998.

  Citing "forces in our world today that are calling for
and
  supporting the creation of a United Religions," the
group is
  busy exploring a purpose, foundational values,
principles,
  actions and organization structure URI may eventually
adopt.

  However, critics of the initiative question the
rationale for the
  adoption of such a globalized religion and question
what
  "entity" -- taken from Christianity or another faith
-- the religion
  will choose to sanctify. Based on URI's published
statements,
  that entity appears to be focused more on earthly
"spirits" than
  on God or Jesus Christ.

  For example, according to a published summary of URI's
goals
  and projects, the group believes that "all living
beings are both
  sacred and connected," and "recent human activities,
which
  have taken place in aggressive opposition to nature,
have
  resulted in an ecological crisis." The alleged crisis,
URI said,
  includes "deforestation, the loss of wild lands,
overpopulation,
  the loss of productive agricultural lands, degradation
of the
  resources of the water planet, dependence on
non-renewable
  energy sources, and extinction of species." The group,
  however, cites no specific studies or evidence to
substantiate
  their claims.

  Christianity, on the other hand, teaches believers
that Man has
  "dominion over the earth" and does not "share" it with
animals.
  Christians also believe in one Supreme Being, not a
series of
  "gods" that preside over specific earthly functions.

  Furthermore, among URI's "actionable ideas" are
several
  statements indicating the group is largely concerned
about
  issues involving primarily "children and women," which
critics
  say is biased and exclusionary against men. And, they
added,
  such inclinations do not measure up to normal
religious
  standards of unity.

  For example, signatories to the URI document must
agree to "...
  express our gravest concerns about the worldwide
brutalities
  against children and women, including physical,
mental, and
  sexual violence and rape as it occurs all over the
world. We
  earnestly appeal that all religious, spiritual and
ethical
  movements and individuals take all possible steps to
end this
  violence against children and women."

  Bill Rankin, a spokesman for URI, told WorldNetDaily
that as a
  Christian he understood how other Christians might
  misunderstand the focus of his group. However, he
said,
  "that's not what we're about."

  "URI is interested in unity," he said, "and in finding
the
  common ground that exists in all of the world's
religions. We
  don't intend to make any one of them preeminent."

  Rankin denied URI was working to create a so-called
"one
  world religion." In a published statement, URI said
the group's
  members only seek "to bring people of different
religions and
  spiritual traditions together in ways that respect and
celebrate
  their uniqueness. The 'united' part of the URI is not
a blending
  of religions but a unity of purpose: to work
cooperatively for
  the good of all people."

War of words on the Internet

 The Kashmir a Paradise homepage - hackers hardly give up

 By Laurence Peter at BBC Monitoring

 Hacking, previously dominated by teenage computer
whizzkids, often with no
 particular axe to grind, now looks set to become a
propaganda weapon.

 Recent cyber-attacks on an Indian army Website and a
pro-Albanian Kosovo site
 both bear the hallmarks of nationalist ideological
campaigns, and in Belarus,
 hackers posted defamatory material on President Alyaksandr
Lukashenka's own
 Web pages.

 Strangers in Paradise

 On 16 October, 1998, the Indian news agency PTI reported
that "suspected
 Pakistani intelligence operatives" had "hijacked the Indian
army's only Website,
 Kashmir A Paradise, which gives the Indian view on Kashmir.

 The Website's guestbook, where users can leave comments,
was "full of
 anti-India superlatives and four-letter adjectives," PTI
reported, describing the
 attack as "part of a cyberwar launched ahead of the
Indo-Pakistani talks," which
 began in Islamabad that day.

 PTI quoted unnamed defence ministry officials as saying
there was an urgent need
 to have an Internet policy to counter such attacks, but in
August an Indian
 supreme court lawyer, Pawan Duggal, told PTI that India was
"totally
 ill-equipped to tackle the onslaught of cyber crimes".

 The Kashmir A Paradise site was soon back to normal, but a
week after the attack
 the homepage still warned: "Desperate hacker keeps on
trying," "3 attempts in 3
 days".

 Revenge of the Black Hand

 On 20 October, 1998, the Kosovo Information Centre (KIC),
which supports the
 party of the ethnic Albanian leader, Dr Ibrahim Rugova,
reported that "hackers
 claiming to be members of the Serbian terrorist
organization Crna Ruka [Black
 Hand] hacked its Web page.

 The hackers posted a copy of the Serbian national symbol,
and captions in
 Serbian and English:

 "Welcome to the Web page of the biggest liars and
killers!", and "Brother
 Albanians, this coat of arms will be in your flag as long
as you exist!"

 The KIC said visitors were "outraged by this hacking", the
provider in New York
 was contacted to prevent further intrusions.

 The pages were restored, but the hackers soon returned with
a vengeance.

 "This site is hacked by Serbian Hackers Team Crna Ruka.
 Long Live Great Serbia!!!", their new posting read.

 Earlier, the independent Belgrade-based news agency Beta
reported that a Serb
 hacker had forced a Swiss Internet provider to withdraw an
edition of the Kosovar
 Albanian newspaper Glas Kosova from the Internet, by
posting anti-Kosovo
 Albanian messages on the newspaper's Website.

 The provider managed to contact the hacker in Poland, who
said he was a
 Yugoslav student. But when he noticed he was being
monitored, he damaged the
 hard disk of one of the Swiss provider's computers, Beta
reported.

 New Challenge for Russian Spooks

 The Russia TV channel last year reported that there were
"regular attempts by
 hackers to penetrate the state authorities' computer
networks".

 The head of Russia's Federal Agency for Government
Communications (FAPSI)
 warned that abuse of modern communications technology could
"affect the
 psychology of nations".

 In neighbouring Belarus, the Website of President
Alyaksandr Lukashenka has
 been repeatedly hacked into, the Russian daily
Komsomolskaya Pravda reported.

 On one occasion, hackers opened a new Website with an image
of Lukashenka
 "which starts turning, before your very eyes, first into
Hitler, then into Stalin,
 then back into Lukashenka," the paper said in July.

 Race to stay ahead

 Governments are now urgently trying to stay ahead of the
game as information
 technology becomes ever more sophisticated and widespread.

  In March, Israeli police arrested an 18-year-old

You have to wonder if something happened in this administration
to part of the 2.4 billion that can't be accounted for and the
tracks are to fresh. 2.4 billion is a lot of bucks to loose track
of even over a number of years.

Babbitt and Rubin 'fined' $625,000 for their 'misdeeds'

By Jerry Seper
THE WASHINGTON TIMES

A judge ordered the government yesterday to pay $625,000 for the
"disobedience" of Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt and former
Treasury Secretary Robert E. Rubin in withholding documents of a
lawsuit involving the mismanagement of Indian trust funds.

In a 47-page ruling, U.S. District Judge Royce C. Lamberth
angrily accused Mr. Babbitt and Mr. Rubin and their government
attorneys of disobeying his November 1996 order to turn over the
records in a suit brought by the Native American Rights Fund,
saying they "covered up their disobedience through semantics and
strained, unilateral, self-serving interpretations of their own
duties."

Judge Lamberth said the $625,000 judgment was the "only fair
result" given the manner in which Mr. Babbitt, Mr. Rubin and the
lawyers conducted themselves in refusing to turn over the
records.

He said their "contumacious misdeeds" wasted the time of Native
American Rights Fund attorneys trying to get information they
were entitled to, and of the court, which he said was subjected
to "needless hearings on document production."

The judge said he was "aware of the unfortunate consequences" in
that the money would be paid by taxpayers.

"Ultimately these taxpayers will be forced to pay for the
misconduct of their government's officials and their government's
attorneys," he said. "This is a troublesome concept for the
court. In this judge's view, the American taxpayers should not
continue to be forced to bear the burden of these types of
misdeeds.

"Instead, as in the case in the private sector, these attorneys
and officials themselves should bear individual responsibility
for their actions," he said.

But Judge Lamberth said he is forbidden to assess the judgment on
an individual basis because the government's attorneys had
removed themselves and the individual officials they represented
from a show-cause order demanding production of the documents. He
said that left only their client -- the government -- "in the
path of liability."

"Although the government must be held accountable for the actions
of its officials and attorneys, the court has a growing
sensitivity toward these burdens being passed along to the people
whom the government serves," he said. "In the future, this court
may be forced to ensure that government attorneys and officials
are at least within the potential group of persons who may be
held liable as a result of their own misdeeds."

Interior spokesman Tim Ahern said the department viewed the
decision as "reasonable," but did not elaborate. He had no
comment on the judge's concerns that taxpayers would be forced to
pay the bill. Mr. Rubin was not available for comment.

Jim McCarthy, spokesman for the Indian fund, said the
organization was "gratified" by the ruling.

He said it sent a "strong message" to the Interior Department
that its "long-held strategy of delay, denial and deception was
no longer going to be tolerated by the judge or by American
Indians."

"The way the government has conducted this case should shock
anyone with a basic familiarity with the law," Mr. McCarthy said.
"It has literally taken the Indians years to hold these guys
accountable. The government sought to delay the trial to exhaust
our resources. There was no other legal purpose."

Judge Lamberth issued the contempt citations in February after
Mr. Babbitt and Mr. Rubin, along with Assistant Interior
Secretary Kevin Gover, refused to produce trust-fund records,
canceled checks and other documents demanded by the court. Mr.
Babbitt and Mr. Rubin were named in the class-action suit filed
by the Indian fund accusing Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs
of mismanagement.

In his contempt order, Judge Lamberth said he found "clear and
convincing evidence" that Mr. Babbitt, Mr. Rubin and Mr. Gover
disobeyed his order, although he noted that Mr. Rubin's
involvement came because he "totally delegated his responsibility
to others and they have miserably failed to comply with this
court's orders."

"The court is deeply disappointed that any litigant would fail to
obey orders for production of documents, and then conceal and
cover up that disobedience with outright false statements that
the court then relied upon," the judge said. "But when that
litigant is the federal government, the misconduct is even more
troubling. I have never seen more egregious misconduct by the
federal government."

Judge Lamberth had sought the records and other materials
involving more than 300,000 individual accounts and 2,000 tribal
accounts managed by the Interior and Treasury departments.
