As Jeffrey Williamson, an economics professor at Harvard, says of this period, 1860-1913: Capital and labor flowed across national boundaries in unprecedented quantity, and commodity trade boomed. The results, in terms of global well-being, were fabulous. Railroad and steamship technology had made transportation much cheaper == My question is where did the foreign capital come from? Who were the investors who bought the railroad stocks and bonds in America? What were their expectations concerning interest and dividends? What happened when the bonds defaulted? I submit much of the capital came from illegal trade--piracy, vice, slavery and opium. That's who founded Forbes.

It may interest you to know that Theodore Olson is married to the Barbara Olson who has been appearing on the talk-show circuit, especially Larry King Live. Linda == from: http://www.larouchepub.com/olson_starr_salon.html This article appeared in the March 13, 1998 issue of Executive Intelligence Review. Secret Operation vs. Clinton Is Run by Olson-Starr Salon by Edward Spannaus Dramatic new information developed by EIR on the role of Washington lawyer Theodore B. Olson as the power behind independent counsel Kenneth Starr, suggests that President Clinton is the target of an illegal, rogue intelligence operation being carried out under the putative authority of the 1981 Presidential Executive Order 12333. There are close parallels between the operation being run against Clinton, and that carried out against Lyndon LaRouche by some of the same circles, in the 1980s. The railroad against LaRouche was conducted as a covert foreign intelligence operation under the provisions of E.O. 12333--which permitted the "privatization" of intelligence operations. Key to the ensuing prosecution and judicial frame-up of LaRouche was a "softening up" process of defamation conducted through news media assets of George Bush's "secret government." This propaganda campaign was coordinated through a series of secret "Get LaRouche" meetings at the New York apartment of Wall Street spook/financier John Train--in what has become known as the "Train salon"--which included representatives of government intelligence and law enforcement agencies, plus news media representatives, including the Wall Street Journal. The "Train salon" was a project of the "Public Diplomacy" effort run out of the National Security Council, under the direction of George Bush's national security adviser Donald Gregg, and Gregg's associate, longtime CIA propaganda specialist Walter Raymond. According to evidence obtained by the Congressional committees investigating Iran-Contra, the initial financing for the Public Diplomacy program came from two intelligence-linked sources: Richard Mellon Scaife's foundations, and the Smith-Richardson Foundation. As we shall see, the same sort of "public-private" operation is now being conducted against President Clinton, by circles around Theodore Olson. In the LaRouche case, the "foreign counterintelligence" hook for the investigation was the allegation--circulated by Henry Kissinger and circles in the FBI--that LaRouche was a Soviet agent of influence, or a Soviet disinformation agent. It is likely that, in the case of Clinton, the pretext is the charge, circulating widely among circles within the FBI and private right-wing networks, that Clinton is guilty of treason for allowing secret intelligence to flow to China, in exchange for campaign contributions. The Olson salon The "Get Clinton" salon meets regularly at the home of former Justice Department official Olson, a longtime close friend and associate of Kenneth Starr, and of Olson's wife Barbara, chief counsel for Rep. Dan Burton's House Government Reform and Oversight Committee. Burton's committee has been noisily conducting investigations of the "Chinagate" allegations around Democratic Party campaign fundraising, and of other alleged Clinton administration transgressions. The gatherings include: Whitewater prosecutor Kenneth Starr, Federal appeals court judge Laurence Silberman, former judge Robert Bork, Supreme Court associate justice Clarence Thomas, Wall Street Journal editor Robert Bartley, American Spectator editor Emmett Tyrrell, and many others. A glimpse into the Olson salon can be found in the July 1997 Esquire magazine, in an article by David Brock, titled "Confessions of a Right-Wing Hit Man." Brock was the author of the Scaife-financed "Troopergate" article in the January 1994 American Spectator--on whose board Ted Olson sits. Brock described how he had been a guest at the wedding of Ted and Barbara Olson in the summer of 1996, where "t

The majority of computers in use today use Microsoft system software, and those that do not often run applications from Microsoft. However, few people know the true story behind the rise of Microsoft and even fewer suspect the terrible cosmic secrets that are concealed beneath the facade of a successful software company. In the Object Linking and Embedding 2.0 Programmer's Reference there is a very curious term. On page 78, the second paragraph starts with the sentence, "In the aggregation model, this internal communication is achieved through coordination with a special instance of IUnknown interface known as the controlling unknown of the aggregate." The term "controlling unknown" is a very interesting choice of words. It is not the most intuitively obvious term for what it is describing (a base class used for implementing an object-oriented data exchange/embedding system). A term strikingly similar to "controlling unknown" was the term "unknown superiors", used by many occult secret societies. These included the Strict Observance Masonic lodge, whose members were sometimes referred to as "illuminati", and which had some connection with Adam Weishaupt's order. "Unknown superiors" is a term that refers to non-corporeal or superhuman agencies in command of secret societies or mystery cults. Such an agency is frequently known as the "inner head" of an order of organisation, as opposed to the outer head, who is human. Organisations that claimed or were claimed to be commanded by such "unknown superiors" include the Ordo Templi Orientis of Aleister Crowley and the Knights Templar, whose Inner Head was apparently a being named Baphomet. Apart from the term "controlling unknown", another hint at the secrets behind Microsoft is the fact that Microsoft Windows has a limit of five window device contexts. Five is a decidedly odd number for such an application, being neither a power of two nor one less than a power of two, but let us not forget Adam Weishaupt's discovery of the Law of Fives in the Necronomicon*. Few people for sure how many buildings there are in the Microsoft campus in Redmond, WA. No maps of the entire facility are known to exist. Some Microsoft employees put the estimate at six or three. An article in an Australian newspaper has claimed that there are 22 buildings. That is partly true; however, there is another building, hidden from the public and even from most Microsoft employees. The twenty-third building, or Building 7, is pentagonal in shape; its exact location is known only to five people (of whom Bill Gates may be one), however it is believed that the building is accessible from elsewhere in the Microsoft campus by a secret passage. What is in the five sided building is not known. However, it is believed that the contents of Building 7 are of a supernatural nature. Apart from the Pentagon, there was a similar five-sided building in Nazi Germany. This has been carefully kept hidden from the public. One hypothesis is that Building 7 is inhabited by, or used to communicate with, the Inner Head, or "controlling unknown". The identity of the Outer Head is unknown.

Fred _ FIGHTING NORWAY'S NAMING LAW The Name Game World Magazine, Jan. 9, 1999 Kirsti Larsen was thrown in a Norwegian jail because she gave her son a first name that was not on the government's list of acceptable choices. She named him Gesher, which means "bridge" In Hebrew. This violates Norway's strict laws regulating names, which include lists of acceptable first and last names. When Mrs. Larsen tried to register her son's name as Gesher at her local county office back in 1995, it was rejected as Illegal. She appealed repeatedly but was ordered to change the name, pay a $210 fine, or spend two days in jail. Mrs. Larsen refused to change the name of her boy, who is now four. So she went to prison for two days, leaving her husband and 10 children at home. But since little Gesher is still named Gesher, no one knows how this dispute will be settled. "Many probably would have bowed to 'Big Brother' and paid the fine. On principle, I couldn't go along with such absurdity," Mrs. Larsen told the Vordens Gang newspaper.

The allegations involving Knight, who is expected to play a key role in Gore's 2000 presidential bid, were sent to the Justice Department by a congressional committee last month. Reno said in a statement that she concluded that she does not possess ``specific and credible information'' that Knight, who is covered by the independent counsel law, ``may have violated federal criminal law.'' She said there was ``no basis'' to begin a preliminary investigation into the allegations. The House Commerce Committee alleged that Knight helped Tennessee businessman and real estate developer Franklin Haney get the favorable terms on the lease and that in return Haney contributed $280,000 to the Democrats. The committee also alleged that Knight, a former chief of staff to Gore, lied to it about a $1 million fee Haney paid him. Reno twice late last year refused to seek an independent counsel to investigate Gore on campaign-related questions. In December, Reno decided against an independent counsel to investigate President Clinton and Gore over political ads financed by the Democratic Party during the 1996 election. In late November, Reno decided not to seek an independent counsel to investigate whether Gore lied to FBI agents about telephone fund-raising calls from his office during the 1996 presidential election campaign. Haney faces charges brought by a Justice Department task force investigating campaign finance abuses that he made nearly $80,000 in illegal contributions to Clinton's reelection effort and to two other candidates from Tennessee. The House Commerce Committee investigated financial and political ties between Haney and top Democratic officials, including Knight, over the lease of the Portals building in Washington, D.C. It is scheduled to become the Federal Communications Commission's new headquarters. The panel questioned whether $1 million payments to Knight and former Tennessee senator Jim Sasser were illegal contingency fees and whether they used their political influence to gain a government lease.

Re: [CTRL] Striped Sleeves Mean Impeachment Is Military?
-Caveat Lector- Rehnquist's stripes are old news - he added them long before this impeachment business even began. Barb At 02:57 PM 1/15/99 -0600, you wrote: -Caveat Lector- STRIPED SLEEVES MEAN IMPEACHMENT IS MILITARY? = (CNNS, 01/15/99) -- Those are not just striped sleeves Chief Judge William Rehnquist is wearing as he presides over the impeachment trial of Bill Clinton. Those are GOLD-striped sleeves. An article in the New York Times (Electronic Edition) dated Jan. 15, 1999, describes Judge Rehnquist specifically as "resplendent in his black gown with four gold stripes on each sleeve." A commentary in the New York Post, by Steve Dunleavy, also sees gold, but Dunleavy describes "three gold stripes on his robe." ["We Could Witness A Total Travesty If Republicans Fold," by Steve Dunleavy. NYPost, 1/15/99] There is disagreement between the NYTimes and NYPost as to whether there are 3 or 4 stripes, but both agree that those are gold stripes Judge Rehnquist is wearing. Why the sudden new fashion in judicial wear?Rehnquist reportedly says he copied the gold-striped style "after seeing a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta." [Dunleavy. Op. cit.] Is Judge Rehnquist's explanation believable? That a scholarly jurist, the Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, approaches the somber and serious business of presiding over the impeachment trial of a U.S. President with such a flippant attitude? One of the most serious proceedings, if not THE most serious proceeding, over which Rehnquist is ever to preside, and he is so humorous, light-hearted and cavalier that he copies his style of robe from a Gilbert Sullivan operetta? CNNS does not believe Rehnquist's explanation as to why he is suddenly wearing gold-stripes on his judicial robe. And since Rehnquist's Gilbert Sullivan story is implausible and therefore a cover story, and hides whatever the REAL reason is for the sudden change in judicial wardrobe, then what is it that Rehnquist's cover story is meant to hide? -+- A Rosetta Stone -+- Rehnquist's gold stripes are a Rosetta Stone, unlocking many mysteries. If Rehnquist is wearing 4 gold stripes on each sleeve, then according to "Ru Mills" (pseudonym) those 4 gold stripes are equivalent to the rank of Full Admiral in the U.S. Navy. A researcher has published to a conspiracy research mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) what he has uncovered as to the possible significance of Rehnquist's gold striped-sleeves. He writes, in part, that There has been some discussion among law researchers that indicates that the gold fringe on the US flag indicates martial law rule. If you recall the old westerns when the US cavalry showed up they all had gold braids on the trumpet, flag, and on the shoulders. We know for certain that they were under martial law, for the federal government was governing the territories directly previous to them entering as states. -+- The Military Connection -+- In Edward Gibbon's great book, "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire," the author repeatedly describes how, with the accession of each new Roman Emperor, a pre-requisite was, often, approval by the military. Following the death of Constantine, for example, "a loud and unanimous declaration was procured from the troops that they would suffer none except the sons of their lamented monarch to reign over the Roman empire." Military support was crucial; without it, the Caesars could not rule. As the Roman Empire decayed over the centuries, military support became increasingly necessary and support from the Roman senate was no longer very important. Over several years, Sherman Skolnick, chairman of the Chicago-based public interest research group, Citizens' Committee To Clean Up The Courts, has reported on attempts by U.S. military brass to arrest their Commander-in-Chief, Bill Clinton, under provisions of the U.S. Military Code of Justice.Does Rehnquist's gold striped-sleeve robe suggest that something like a military arrest or military trial has occurred or is occurring? Or is the new-style judicial robe merely a symbolic message from the military, warning Clinton of their power? Contacted by CNNS, Mr. Skolnick further noted that the striped-sleeve style of judicial robe was *de rigueur* in Nazi Germany. -+- The Intelligence Connection -+- Heading the team of prosecutors conducting the impeachment trial is Congressman Henry Hyde. Mr. Skolnick has repeatedly reported that Hyde oversees the CIA "Black Budget," highly-classified accounts of how CIA spends its money. Hyde also, according to Skolnick, is a retired Naval Reserve Commander. So with Chief Prosecutor Hyde, we have another murky figure

[CTRL] Truth About Evil
-Caveat Lector- From the Wasington Post, Wednesday, January 6, 1999; Page A25 The Truth About Evil By Michael Kelly Some months ago, I wrote a column in which I expressed revulsion at an affectionate feature in the New York Times about a small band of elderly communists and socialists who do good works among the downtrodden of Los Angeles and, by the way, still revere Marx and Lenin. For this, Sam Tanenhaus, author of an estimable and honest biography of Whittaker Chambers, takes me politely to task in the current New York Review of Books. My finger-pointing, says Tanenhaus, is emblematic of a regrettable "revival of the familiar cold war Manichaeanism, whereby the entire burden of world communism is laid crushingly upon every [Communist Party] member or sympathizer." This is a debate worth having, for it is central to the intellectual and cultural history of this century. It has been, you have to admit, a pretty Manichaean sort of century: good and evil in the form of democracy and totalitarianism duking it out for global domination; concentration camps; gulags; a couple of hundred million dead-that sort of thing. The good was not absolute (we had Joe McCarthy and Roy Cohn on our side, alas), but the evil was pretty close to pure. American liberalism came to terms with one face of the century's evil-that of the Nazis and their allies-immediately, honorably and unequivocally. The fight to destroy the Nazi version of fascism was waged in such unabashedly Manichaean terms that we called it The Good War (we were not being ironic either; only Parisians and a few guys at Oxford knew about irony back then). And organized American political liberalism-that is, the Democratic Party and the labor movement-also came to terms soon enough with the communist version, and firmly rejected it. But the treatment of communist fascism by liberalism's intellectual and cultural establishments-as distinct from its mainstream political bodies-has been profoundly different. The intellectual and cultural elites have never come to terms with communism as an evil on a par with Nazism and, more important, with their role in supporting, or at least tolerating, that evil. This failure, which is one of immense moral dimensions as well as rational, persists. (Witness the 24-part CNN television series on the Cold War, a history massively distorted by the light of moral equivalency that shines in Ted Turner's dim, dim bulb of a mind.) The failure persists and adapts because it is too large to come to terms with. Coming to terms means not merely admitting the fundamental evil of the communist system and its root philosophy (as opposed to admitting the evil of one or another communist tyrant) but also admitting our own sympathetic complicity. It means not merely reassessing the century's political figures but its intellectual and cultural figures too. It means reassessing us. And this is a tremendously painful prospect, because it is a tremendously personal one. There were never many Nazis or Nazi sympathizers in America and very few political, cultural and intellectual figures of note among them. But such is not the case with communism. Twentieth-century political, cultural and intellectual history is thickly peopled with respected and even revered figures-labor leaders, progressive reformers, novelists, playwrights, artists, luminaries of the news and entertainment businesses-who were deeply supportive of a system and philosophy that we now know beyond doubt was every bit as monstrous as the Nazi regime, was morally indistinguishable from the Nazi regime. And on the more intimate level, when we talk about American communists or communist sympathizers, we are talking about family. So when we contemplate admitting the full profundity of communism's evil, we are contemplating a radical reevaluation of everyone who traveled some distance with that evil. We are talking about reevaluating Upton Sinclair and John Steinbeck and Pablo Picasso and Ernest Hemingway and Charlie Chaplin. And we are talking also about reevaluating Uncle Harry and Aunt Edith and Grandpa and maybe even dear old Dad. What further complicates matters is we know that Uncle Harry and Aunt Edith are good people. They sided with the communists because they sincerely believed in the promise of communism to address the wrongs of our own society-its gross class inequities, its racial oppression, the rough cruelties of capitalism. But the fellow travelers were wrong, and in their wrong, they helped to perpetuate a system that caused immense human suffering. To say this is not to gainsay that most Communist Party members and sympathizers were motivated by the desire to make a better world, nor is it to lay the whole burden of communism's crimes on their shoulders. It is simply to say this: At some point it becomes a seriously immoral act to refuse to acknowledge the truth. At some point, you have to ask whether it is morally acceptable to regard those who yet refuse to come

As has been stated innumerable times, no one, conservative, liberal or in between cares if Clinton engages in extramarital sex an infinite number of times with countless persons. Your attitude regarding Clinton - blind faith, unthinking loyalty, absurd denial in the face of facts admitted by Clinton himself - is quintessential fundamentalist/cult thinking. Does endorsing Clinton's politics and embracing his political vision really require that you defend EVERYTHING he does, no matter how illegal??? As far as Livingston, or any of the other philanderers/crooks in office, they too can screw their brains out, they just cannot lie about it before a trial court and a grand jury. The he did it too! argument is reminiscent of grade school where young children attempt to avoid punishment by deflecting the attention to someone else (i.e., snitching). Or even junior high when everyone does it! is the preferred rationale for base behavior. Barb DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

The people have no where go . EXCEPT TO PUT UP A SMOKE SCREEN to cover up for a criminal politician, there is no reason why this must be done today, The UNSCOM report had just come out stating that there is every sign that Saddam is going ahead with his WMD program. In the meantime, Saddam had shut the UNSCOM down so surveillance was no longer taking place. Since Iraq could develop a major capability in just a few months, Clinton had to act fast. Since launching an attack during Ramadan would be awkward, Wednesday was a good choice. I trust you are not like Trent "draft dodger" Lott who complained a short while back that Clinton missed an opportunity to bomb Iraq. Now, of course, he is in a rage over the bombing. Could it be that Lott is so unprincipled that his stance merely depends upon what political wind seems convenient? Incidentally, Lott was full of praise for the racist group that Bob "family values" Barr recently keynoted for. I do agree that innocent people will be injured and killed in addition to their property destroyed and they will be indirectly harmed by destruction of utilities. That is why people like Lugar, Gingrich, and Lott should not be so eager for war as a way to prove their manhood, i.e. show machismo by sending other to die. Strange how on the right, with people like Safire who have been screaming for the US to bomb Iraq, there are now only pacifists. Jerry harp -- Apparently, some persons disagree... Barb Pentagon officials dispute timing The Washington Times 12/17/98 Rowan Scarborough The White House notified the Joint Chiefs of Staff on Sunday that President Clinton would order air strikes this week, 48 hours before he saw a United Nations report declaring Iraq in noncompliance with weapons inspectors, it was learned from authoritative sources last night. Several Pentagon officials have questioned Mr. Clinton's timing to order strikes on the eve of the House impeachment debate. Pentagon sources said National Security Council aides told the Joint Chiefs to quickly update a bombing plan that was shelved in mid-November and were told that a strike would be ordered in a matter of days. Israeli spokesman Aviv Bushinsky said yesterday in Jerusalem that President Clinton discussed preparations for an attack with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu just minutes before Mr. Clinton flew home from Israel's Ben-Gurion Airport on Tuesday, ending a three-day peace mission. White House spokesman Joe Lockhart insisted that Mr. Clinton made the strike decision yesterday based on the U.N. finding of noncompliance. Nevertheless, a senior congressional source, who asked not to be named, said senior Pentagon officers expressed great skepticism to him about the raids. This source said that the White House eagerness to launch air strikes grew with intensity as a parade of centrist Republicans announced they would vote to impeach the president, in a vote originally scheduled for today. "I have had senior flag and general officers question the timing," the congressional source said. "I have had senior military officers laughing. I hate to say that. ... Why now? He hasn't built a coalition. He hasn't done anything. Why this timing?" Reporters and others traveling with the president in the Middle East remarked during last weekend that the president seemed uncharacteristically unconcerned about events unfolding in Washington, and several White House aides expressed puzzlement that the president seemed to have lost his "fighting spirit." Mrs. Clinton was noticeably cool to the president as their visit there continued and drew away from him on several public occasions. The Joint Chiefs were described as strongly supporting yesterday's attack. They wanted to launch missiles in mid-November, after Saddam Hussein evicted inspectors. The president called off the attack just minutes before "H hour" after Saddam promised to cooperate with inspectors. Defense Secretary William S. Cohen yesterday strongly disputed charges the attack is linked to impeachment. "The only factor, from my point of view ... or for anyone else's point of view, was what is the national security interests of the United States," Mr. Cohen said. "We are convinced. We have absolutely no doubt this is the right decision." Mr. Cohen also said war planners preferred not to attack during Ramadan, the monthlong Islamic observance beginning this weekend. This is the second time military officers and experts have questioned whether Mr. Clinton timed U.S. military action to take attention away from the Monica Lewinsky scandal.
