[CTRL] Nuclear Countdown Vigil at White House
-Caveat Lector- From: Carol Moore [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: abolition-caucus [EMAIL PROTECTED]; WTR List [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Y2K-Nukes List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Endorse This!: Dec 31st Y2K Nuclear Countdown Vigil at White House Date: Thursday, December 23, 1999 9:41 AM We are encouraging more groups to get involved with this effort as endorsers or participants. Initial sponsors include: Gray Panthers, Hiroshima-Nagasaki Peace Committee, Proposition One Committee, Washington DC Area War Tax Resistance, Washington Action Group. We will be putting endorsers on our later emails and our press release and materials distributed 12/31. We hope to get a couple of expert speakers for our press conference, as well as local anti-nuclear and peace activists. We expect a lot of press attention because the media is obviously interested in the sensational issue of whether Y2K will lead to nuclear accidents. We should use this to promote our demand that we abolish nuclear weapons and phase out nuclear power as soon as possible. And we must not forget that it is foreign interventions (like bombing of Yugoslavia and Iraq) and internal wars (like Chechnya and Kashmir) that are most likely to lead to nuclear war. If you or your group are interested, please contact Carol Moore 202-635-3739 or John Steinbach 1-703-369-7427. For peace in our time...Carol in D.C. = CURRENT LEAFLET = White House Vigil White House sidewalk, Lafayette Park December 31, 1999 Noon til Five (Or later if circumstances necessitate) Press Conference at 1:00 PM The leaders of the worlds 34 nuclear nations have had several years to ensure that as the clock rolls over on January 1st there will not be any nuclear-related year 2000 software or embedded chip problems. Not only in the first weeks of the year 2000, but for decades afterwards Y2K-related errors could cause accidents at the worlds 433 nuclear power plants and hundreds of military nuclear facilities and nuclear waste dumps. Such errors could lead to false missile alerts that would force leaders to launch the United States and Russias 15,000 nuclear weapons which are now on hair-trigger alert. Leaders have less than fifteen minutes to decide if they must launch their missiles or possibly lose them to a first strike. Many scientists, nuclear safety and peace activists, and other concerned citizens, are aware that the nuclear nations have not done, and cannot do, enough. We know that once January 1st breaks across the world we face decades of worry about whether there will be nuclear plant accidents, as well as nuclear weapons false alerts that could lead to full scale nuclear war. The growing tensions between the United States and Russia only increase the likelihood of such an accidental nuclear war. Therefore, as we count down to the end of the century, activists will do a Y2K Nuclear Countdown at the White House. We will use a large map of the world, dotted with nuclear symbols identifying facilities, to track the year 2000 as it enters each new time zone. We want to remind the world that we are all under a countdown to the almost inevitable nuclear power or weapons accident that will kill thousands, millions or even billions of people. We will demand that the United States and the 33 other nuclear nations: * Take all Nuclear Power Plants Offline and Rapidly Phase Out Nuclear Power * Mandate Nuclear Plants and Waste Facilities Keep a Months Supply of Diesel Fuel for Backup Generators * De-alert Nuclear Weapons from the Current Launch on Warning Status and Rapidly Phase Out Nuclear Weapons * Until De-alert Occurs, Inform the Press and Public Immediately of any False Nuclear Missile Alerts * Until De-alert Occurs, Keep Open the U.S.-Russian Y2K Center at the U.S. Space Command Headquarters in Colorado Springs Initial sponsors include: Gray Panthers, Hiroshima-Nagasaki Committee, Proposition One Committee, Washington DC Area War Tax Resistance, Washington Action Group.

[CTRL] Earth suffers disaster record in 1999-insurer
-Caveat Lector- http://news.excite.com/news/r/991221/13/life-disasters World suffers new disaster record in 1999-insurer Reuters News Service Updated 1:04 PM ET December 21, 1999 By David Crossland FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Nature plagued the world with a record number of disasters in 1999 but the death toll fell far short of the worst single catastrophe of the last 1,000 years, a Chinese flood that killed 900,000 in 1887. Munich Re, one of the world's largest reinsurers, said that about 70,000 people were killed in well over 700 disasters this year, including up to 30,000 who died in floods and mudslides in Venezuela this week. Climatic changes such as global warming were partly to blame, but it was impossible to say to what extent, Munich Re said. "We have a feeling that climate changes will play an increasing role in the future," said Gerhard Berz, head of a Munich Re research team that has been collecting worldwide data on disasters for the last 25 years. Economic losses resulting from catastrophes surged to $535 billion per decade in the 1990s from $38 billion in the 1950s in price-adjusted terms, Munich Re said. Insurance losses have risen at almost twice that rate as worldwide insurance cover has increased, Munich Re said. Alongside environment changes, urban growth and growing population density are causing the increase in catastrophe losses. A violent storm in a desert is a natural spectacle but it becomes a disaster if it strikes a town. MAN A BIGGER KILLER THAN NATURE More than 15 million people died in over 100,000 natural catastrophes over the last thousand years, with some 3.5 million deaths this century alone, Munich Re said. The total amounts to less than half the fatalities of World War II but excludes the unquantifiable millions who died of drought and famine. Munich Re has written a review of the millennium based on what it says is a unique archive of data used by scientists, engineers and authorities all over the world. But contrary to the impression given by the record number of disasters and the thousands of deaths this year, death tolls seem to be declining, Munich Re said. Improved early warning systems and protection systems are helping. Cyclones claimed well over one million lives in India and Bangladesh in the 18th and 19th centuries, and hundreds of thousands drowned in freak North Sea storms in the late Middle Ages. This century's worst disaster was an earthquake in July 1976 that killed 290,000 people in the Tangshan region of north-east China. Economic losses at $5.6 billion were uninsured. Earthquakes are the biggest killers, accounting for 47 percent of deaths. Windstorms claim 45 percent, followed by floods with seven percent.

During the last five years I have had the opportunity to travel to over twenty countries lecturing in the areas of science, technology and the environment. We have been guests on hundreds of radio programs for our earlier work on HAARP and other subjects. Our newest book represents the best of our research materials and will awaken even the most skeptical. We look forward to great interviews and getting this information out. I am sure you will be pleased with the well referenced and extraordinary material. We are announcing my newest book, Earth Rising - The Revolution: Toward a Thousand Years of Peace. This book is the most extensive written work on new weapons technology, technologies which impact the environment and privacy issues and technologies which can change the very way we think. This book by Dr. Nick Begich with researcher and co-author James Roderick not only proves the existence of these technologies with its extensive documentation but, more importantly, raises the moral, ethical and legal questions which must form the foundation of the public debate that this book will ignite. The book will begin shipping from our warehouse in early January. In the mean time, if you are interested in this topic, we can provide some additional information in advance of release or a review copy when released. Please let us know. The printer has advised is to expect the book at the end of the first week in January. The Earthpulse Institute. Over the last ten years Earthpulse has grown from a small, quiet research group to a quickly expanding publishing and news organization. Our desire has been to invigorate discussion and develop solutions to some of the problems we see around us. We have had a great beginning in achieving success in several projects and have much waiting to be completed. Our effort started from the point of personal curiosity leading to early publishing successes. We believed that an activist publisher could make a difference. We are forming the Earthpulse Institute for the purpose of initiating a number of research projects in science, health, technology and politics. The first significant project is to finish cataloging over 4000 documents on new technologies, scanning the documents and providing the research base to political leaders, organizations and researchers needing this material in order to solve the problems related to the technologies. Our past successes in our areas of activism are at a turning point, with this new title encapsulating our work over the last ten years. Thank you again for your continued support.

[CTRL] Nude Ira Einhorn Enrages US State Department and Philly DA
-Caveat Lector- From: David Crockett Williams [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: .GeneralAgencyServices [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Nude Ira Einhorn Enrages US State Department and Philly DA Date: Friday, December 17, 1999 4:16 PM Dear News/Editor: The article about the frustrated extradition of Ira Einhorn in today's Philadelphia Daily News, "It's too much to bare - Angered by Ira pix, DA turns to feds", would almost be funny if it were not so serious. The DA has a psychotic episode over a naked man photo and "the tabloids" lap it up and spew it out. Transparently "yellow journalism" articles like this one incite the American lynchmob mentality fostered by the Philly DA, Lynne "Faulty Information" Abrahams, who is also misrepresenting the truth on other very important aspects of this case according to attorney John W. Packel, Chief of the Appeals Division of the Philadelphia Public Defender Office for 30 years. In one of several notarized affidavits he has filed on the Einhorn case, on November 27, 1998, he responds to Abraham's affidavit "guaranteeing" that Einhorn will receive a new trial (a reported prerequisite for France's extradition permission) and her overtures to the State Department by saying: "Frankly I am appalled, but not surprised, by the District Attorney's 'guarantee' which refers to the statute granting a new trial but makes no reference whatsoever to the controlling decisions of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court unequivocally holding that any such statute is invalid [because] the legislature has no authority to impair or overturn a judgement of the courts. Furthermore I am surprised and disappointed by the State Department's blind endorsement of this misleading document. ...the District Attorney ignores, making absolutely no reference to, clear and compelling authority establishing that the statute it drafted is unconstitutional, unenforcable, and invalid." What's going on with the Philly DA and the US State Department that they are resorting to unconstitutional means and misrepresentation to close the case on the Maddux murder by trying to extradite Einhorn under false and illegal pretexts? This is but one example of the witch-hunt, Inquisitional, McCarthyism kind of practices of the American "Judged by the Media" mentality manifest in Philadelphia where the US Constitution is flaunted by increasing numbers of in-absentia trials disallowing the accused to confront his/her accusers. If Einhorn was framed for this crime, as he claims and piles of affidavits from prominent witnesses in his attorney's possession evidence, all this may indicate the potentially high levels of complicity to silence Ira Einhorn, the person described in the Daily News on April 14, 1978, as "Philadelphia's tireless activist and warm-hearted humanist". If the ignored evidence on file, gone unreported and disallowed at Einhorn's in-absentia trial, does prove that he was framed, then Philadelphia should hire a DA more psychologically stable and honest to find Holly's real murderer. Oh well, whatever sells newspapers is the name of the game, at least so claimed Theresa Conroy of the Daily News in her recent phone conversation with me. David Crockett Williams 661-822-3309 Tehachapi, California, December 17, 1999 PS Keep checking links at http://www.angelfire.com/on/GEAR2000/agenda.html for regularly updated inputs of additional overlooked facts and comments about this case and related issues, some forwarded to me directly by Ira Einhorn from France. http://www.phillynews.com/daily_news/99/Dec/17/local/IRAA17.htm Philadelphia Daily News Friday, December 17, 1999 It's too much to bare Angered by Ira pix, DA turns to feds by Theresa Conroy Daily News Staff Writer Philadelphia District Attorney Lynne Abraham is getting some help in hauling fugitive Ira Einhorn back home. U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright has taken action on a plea Abraham sent to Albright in a Dec. 1 letter. "The secretary did receive the letter that was sent by Lynne Abraham. It arrived Dec. 6," Philip Reeker, a State Department spokesman, said yesterday. "She directed that a cable be sent to the embassy in Paris instructing them to go in at senior levels at the [French] Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Justice to express our serious concern about the lack of progress for the resolution of this important extradition case," he said. Abraham said yesterday that she sent the three-page letter to Albright to "move the process along." Einhorn - a fugitive for more than 16 years - was discovered and arrested in France in June, 1997. He has been fighting extradition back to Philadelphia, where he was convicted in absentia in 1993 of killing his girlfriend, Holly Maddux. Abraham sent a copy of her letter to the U.S. ambassador to France. "I want France to live up to i

The nuclear deterrent on both sides of the old Iron Curtain is credited with maintaining peace since the end of the Second World War.

tions and profit. Economics is a tool not some god to be prayed to. If WTO does not create a future that celebrates planetary diversity, and allows the small to flourish it must be discarded. The English people said no to genetically manipulated food.. Seattle said no to further economic enslavement. May Global Peace Walk 2000 begin to role back the soft fascism that has allowed America to rip up the constitution and betray its own stated purpose. Jails are not the solution to poverty. SWAT teams are not the solution to soft drugs. Seizures of property from innocent people is THEFT not police work. Driving while black must become a thing of the past. Compassion must rule wherein medical marijuana is concerned. Midnight seizure of children must stop. Hemp should flourish, along with free energy and the UFO information that would allow people to create it. The death penalty must be rescinded, so that America can once again be a part of the civilized world. The execution of children is heinous. The destruction of childhood with Ritalin and other methods of stamping out childhood must be moderated as childhood is not a disease. A large agenda for those working with David Crockett Williams and Global Peace Walk 2000, but an agenda we must all adopt if we are to create a world in the next century that we can be proud to live in.

-Caveat Lector- "The Vision of Paradise on Earth", by David Crockett Williams http://www.angelfire.com/on/GEAR2000/vision.html This fairly long article was written at the request of Ms. Mayumi Mori, President of a Global University for Peace in Japan for her translation and publication in the Japanese language for an upcoming conference there. It represents a summary of my last 25 years of work as a global peace, environment, social justice activist, and as a scientist (specializing in the theoretical chemical physics of human consciousness) and spiritual practitioner. This document outlines my reasoning and comprehensive plan for the creation of true peace, harmony among all life and free natural abundance as paradise on Earth.

"We are approaching the sunrise of a new dawn of human thinking in harmony with nature and the natural law that describes the oneness of all life, the relationship of humankind to all life, the "All My Relations" of our family of life whereby all matter and energy and mind are understood as related by the operation of consciousness itself."

it improves access to services, or "it could be meaningless, if Congress and state legislators do not have the backbone and the political will to act on it." The report endorses efforts by some states and members of Congress to eliminate the disparities in insurance coverage for mental disorders and other illnesses. Equality between mental health coverage and that for other illnesses -- a concept known as parity -- is "an affordable and effective objective," it says. When mental health care is properly coordinated by a health maintenance organization or a firm specializing in such care, parity causes "negligible cost increases," it says. But, the study says, techniques used by H.M.O.'s to cut costs, by reducing hospital stays and encouraging short-term outpatient therapy, have not worked well for emotionally disturbed children from low-income families on Medicaid. Indeed, it says, Medicaid may be simply shifting costs to child welfare and juvenile justice agencies. Among other recommendations, the study says "it is imperative to expand the supply" of mental health services, and to increase the number of mental health professionals caring for children and adolescents. The study does not specify the cost of such initiatives, but health officials said the administration was not seeking a big budget increase. Researchers have made immense gains in the treatment of mental disorders, with powerful new drugs and various methods of psychotherapy, but they need to focus more on how to prevent such illnesses, the report said. Progress in preventing mental illness has been slow, because scientists do not understand enough about the causes of such illness, the report said. Mental disorders are usually not defined by laboratory tests or physiologic abnormalities of the brain, and "for the most part, their causes remain unknown," it said. The split between mind and body, proposed by Descartes in the 17th century, is artificial and antiquated and has hampered mental health research, the report says. "The roots of most mental disorders lie in some combination of biological and environmental factors," the report says. "No single gene appears to be responsible for any mental disorder. Rather, small variations in multiple genes contribute to a disruption in healthy brain function." Under certain environmental conditions, it says, this disruption can result in mental illness. The report says "the mental health system is highly fragmented," so that people who need help must often navigate a bewildering maze to get treatment. Moreover, it says, health care practitioners are often unaware of research identifying the most effective treatments. The surgeon general's report also makes these points: Psychiatric disorders appear in all types of families, of all social classes and of all backgrounds. Treatment of mental disorders cost $69 billion in 1996, the last year for which figures are available. In addition, the nation spent $17.7 billion on Alzheimer's disease and $12.6 billion on treatment for drug and alcohol abuse that year. The figures do not include indirect costs, like days of work lost because of mental illness. One in five children experiences the signs and symptoms of a diagnosable mental disorder in the course of a year, but only about 5 percent of all children suffer "extreme functional impairment." Among Americans age 18 to 54, 14.9 have anxiety disorders, 7.1 percent have mood disorders and 1.3 percent have schizophrenia. Among elderly people, depression takes an "inordinate toll," but often goes undiagnosed and untreated. Eight percent to 15 percent of older people have symptoms of depression. "Suicidal thoughts are sometimes considered a normal facet of old age." People 65 and older have the highest suicide rates of any age group. In addition, the report says that Alzheimer's disease strikes 8 percent to 15 percent of people over the age of 65. But it insists that "normal aging is not characterized by mental disorders."

[CTRL] EgyptAir990 downed by E/M Weapon?
-Caveat Lector- A Boston Globe article of today on EgyptAir 990 story appeared in my local Bakersfield Californian newspaper and I noted from its content below, compared to the below included AP story on "black box" evaluations, that their story contains a key element missing in AP story which needs clarification and perhaps deeper investigation at http://www.enterprisemission.com of numerous articles with both empirical evidence http://www.enterprisemission.com/egyptair2.htm and informed speculation regarding above suspected potential cause of this airplane crash http://www.enterprisemission.com/egyptair3.htm http://www.enterprisemission.com/reid.html along with other articles regarding seemingly farfetched symbolism connections to esoteric cosmologies in other articles at that site. The Globe story written by Matthew Brelis says: Had there been a major problem with the jet or an explosion, it is likely that a member of the crew would have issued a distress call during the 51 seconds in which the plane dropped from its cruising altitude of 33,000 feet to 16,400 feet. At that point, the plane's two ''black boxes'' - the cockpit recorder and the flight data recorder - stopped working, as did the plane's transponder, which sends identifying information to controllers, indicating a power failure. ''At no time did a member of the flight crew use radio communication to advise air traffic control of either an emergency of a mechanical failure or concern,'' Hall said in a statement. What I am wondering is what he meant by "at that point". Does this mean that a power failure occured at the beginning of the 51second descent to 16,400 feet or at the end of that descent? Deeper investigation indicates the possibility that such a catastrophic power failure shutting off the plane's transponders and both "black boxes" might have been due to an advanced electromagnetic weapon whose high powered electromagnetic pulse (EMP) may have caused such catastrophic power failure, that would have also prohibited pilots' mayday calls, and related unexplained anomalous behavior resulting in the crash of this airliner. The reason I ask this is due to the concerns about this kind of advanced e/m weaponry under development secretly not only by the US but by other entities possibly hostile to the United States, concerns voiced to me by, and scientifically discussed by Dr. Fred B. Wood, Sr., early radar pioneer, in his articles at http://www.angelfire.com/on/GEAR2000/fwood.html . The Globe newspaper research seems to be ahead of AP on at least this one item of potential evidence to support this idea of EgyptAir990 being "shot down" for some reason by an advanced E/M weapon, I thought I would suggest exploration of this idea. Remember that there were about 30 Egyptian military officers on that plane that had just finished some kind of training in the US and be aware that certain rogue Islamic states may be in possession of this kind of technology now in experimental stages due to their hiring of former Soviet scientists who Wood maintains may be even farther ahead than the US in these experiments which are all under wraps due to strict US scientific/military secrecy policies. So many airplanes have been inexplicably "falling out of the sky" over the last few years that this seemingly fanciful thesis warrants deeper investigation and I hope media reporters begin that process in the interests of public safety.

James E. Hall, chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board, said that sophisticated sound analysis of the cockpit recorder is continuing but that ''no sounds have been detected that would be consistent with mechanical failures or an explosion.''

Snitching on someone has become the only way for defendants in drug cases to reduce mandatory minimum sentences which were legislated in the 1980s. In the last five years almost a third of defendants in federal drug trafficking cases had prison terms reduced because they informed on others In many cases, the person implicated by the snitches was barely involved, if at all, in the actual drug deal. This FRONTLINE encore broadcast profiles several unsettling cases. For example, Clarence Aaron, (http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/snitch/cases/aaron.html) a college student and athlete with no prior police record was given a life sentence for drug trafficking--the penalty designed for a drug kingpin. The amount of drugs in evidence against him: none. The amount of other material evidence: none. On testimony alone, Clarence was sentenced to three consecutive life terms. The witnesses were his childhood friends, all drug dealers with prior police records, all facing life in prison, whose testimonies earned them big sentence reductions. The program's web site (http://www.pbs.org/frontline/shows/snitch) offers much more: - a 'behind the film' interview with producer Ofra Bikel; - two fascinating interviews (http://www.pbs.org/frontline/shows/snitch/etc/inside.html) with informants who talk about what they did and why - interviews (http://www.pbs.org/frontline/shows/snitch/procon/) with defenders and critics of the current system - a report on a case (http://www.pbs.org/frontline/shows/snitch/end/) which challenged government leniency deals; - a primer (http://www.pbs.org/frontline/shows/snitch/primer)on how mandatory minimum sentences helped escalate the use of snitches by the government.

[CTRL] Experience Seattle on Eight 8-hour Videotapes
-Caveat Lector- Ralph is also available to travel and videotape other progressive events and distribute low cost videotape documentary records of them. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: undisclosed-recipients:; undisclosed-recipients:; Subject: Experience Seattle on Eight 8-hour Videotapes, only $40 fromJusticeVision Date: Thursday, December 09, 1999 2:22 AM Hola Friends of JusticeVision and others seeking social justice- First of all, I want to thank those of you that kept nudging me about going to Seattle, either to be there with them or to be there to record events on their behalf. It was an amazing 8 days for me, for reasons you never would have guessed from the media coverage. I doubt if history has ever seen such massive convergence of compassion and intellect. I know you have plenty to read so I will make this as short as I can. There were multi-part teach-ins going on each day, and I taped as many of them as I could, as well as a good sampling of the marches, rallies, and protest demonstrations that were going on. I taped about 66 hours in all. I am putting together eight 8-hour videotapes (one 8-hour tape for each day I was there), that will contain the 30 (or so) events I taped. I am keeping them in chronological order so that the viewer will be able to experience each event in the context of what had taken place before. The experience will make transparent the spin that leaders and media are putting on the the causes and implications of the weeks events, in a way that disorienting sound-bite journalism never could, even if it wanted to. The experience will also give you dozens of often amazing new heros (easily more than a hundred) to cherish from progressive movements around the world, as well as deepened respect for and better familiarity with those you already know. Some show up in more than one venue, sometimes on different topics. A sampling of familiar names from those that spoke at one or more of the events, in alphabetical order, is Maude Barlow, Ruth Caplan, Tony Clarke, Kevin Danaher, Mike Dolan, Ronnie Dugger, Susan George, Randall Hayes, Jim Hightower, Martin Khor, David Korten, Michael Moore (ours, not theirs), Ralph Nader, Mark Ritchie, (Cuban Foreign Minister) Felipe Perez Roque, Vandana Shiva, John Sweeney, Lori Wallach, Jim Wallis, and Maxine Waters. There are also theater groups, and musical performances by solo artists and groups such as the Raging Grandmas, and Honey In The Rock. Though we were recording inside during the most violent of the police riots, we were able to videotape what appeared to be and what we believe was a completely unprovoked use of police force. We also took part in both of the rallies and marches that culminated in the County Jail lockdowns, and enjoyed preserving for you on video a large portion of the several hours we were able to spend there with the protesters. I'm offering the 8-videotape (approx. 64 hour) set for a requested donation of $80, although I'll go as low as $40 because I know a lot of you can't afford to pay more than that, and I would like very much for everyone to share the experience as possible. I ordinarily don't ask people to pay in advance, but I have to this time, because my VCRs are going out and I need to raise money to replace them, to buy blank tapes (which cost me $1.55 each) and pay for mailing. I also have received orders for over 900 tapes in Seattle (@ $5 each to be paid later, in order to introduce people to the Democracy University Video Series we do). The 15 VCRs I have that still work would have to run day and night for almost a month just to fill those orders. In case you are concerned about prepaying, all my tapes come with a No Regrets Guarantee. If you let me know if you are not happy with a tape, I will replace it or refund that portion of the money you sent, or will send something else you think you might like better. Orders will be filled as quickly as possible, but I may have to send them serially, possibly one a week, especially if I am unable to raise enough money to add more machines. Orders that come with donations in excess of the minimum will be priortized accordingly, since they in effect will be helping me increase the rate at which I can get everybody's tapes out. I intend to fill all prepaid orders ahead of the orders I received in Seattle, since those were not prepaid, for the same reason. Individual tapes from the set will be available for a minimum donation of $10 or more (for orders not received in Seattle), which is still a great deal for an 8-hour videotape (it works out to $1.25 an hour). A separate announcement detailing the contents of each tape in the set will be emailed when it is ready. I must tell you, though, that judging upon my own experience in putting the tapes together, there is no tape among the 8 that you will not enjoy immensely, benefit from, and want to share. A Closing Thought: By making this record of the substantive lectures and discussions that

ocessed so that their radioactivity would be eliminated. However, the company did not have the technology for actually transmuting the radioactive waste. Since then I have brought to his attention one proven method of transmuting radioactive substances so that they would be no longer radioactive. Earlier this year I asked Mr. MacMillan when he expects to have the service for neutralizing radioactive fuel. He told me no more than five years. Since we already have a proven method of neutralizing radioactivity on site at nuclear power plants, we can immediately abandon Yucca Mountain as a radioactive waste dump. There will not be any waste nuclear fuel to transport and store. The proven method of transmuting radioactive waste is low-energy nuclear transmutation. A new design has also been developed which is believed to be at least one million times more powerful than low-energy nuclear transmutation. This is a drawing of a reactor which you can buy right now for $2,500 for demonstrating low-energy nuclear transmutation. Inside the reactor are a pair of electrodes which are positively and negatively charged. Protons require 9,000,000 volts to be accelerated to a velocity high enough to penetrate nuclei. Within this reactor, protons are embedded in high-density clusters of electrons. Protons have 1836 times the mass of electrons. 9,000,000 volts divided by 1836 is a little less than 5,000 volts. So therefore, in order to penetrate nuclei and to transmute elements, only a little less than 5,000 volts is required to accelerate protons to the same high enough velocity as 9,000,000 volts. That is the reason for the term low-energy nuclear transmutation. This is a photograph of a flake of non-radioactive copper that used to be radioactive thorium. Look at that copper flake. This photograph is visual proof that low-energy nuclear transmutation of radioactive waste can be done. (See http://web.gcis.net/cincygrp/.) If you still dont believe me, you can see for yourself in Salt Lake City demonstrations of reducing radioactive thorium by 90% in an hour. The record shows so far that the Department of Energy and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission have not been paying any attention to eliminating radioactivity using low-energy nuclear transmutation. I think the DOE and the NRC have fallen short in their responsibilities to Congress and the public about the need for a Yucca Mountain repository. They know that there are alternatives to Yucca Mountain. Yet the DOE and the NRC have been adamant about not spending any money investigating low-energy nuclear transmutation. I have heard it suggested that these two agencies and their contractors just dont want to give up on over one hundred billion dollars of profitable contracts involved in reprocessing, transporting, and geologic storage of radioactive waste. I have even heard it suggested that there must be corruption somewhere within the DOE and NRC which would explain why they have not shown any interest in cheap and safe low-energy nuclear transmutation of radioactive waste. I ask the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to stop wasting money on studying Yucca Mountain for dumping radioactive waste and such auxiliary topics as transportation safety issues. Neutralization of waste nuclear fuel on-site at nuclear power plants is a proven technology which can be demonstrated up in Salt Lake City. I also ask the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to finance and stage here in Henderson a public demonstration of neutralizing radioactive materials using low-energy nuclear transmutation. Those in the audience who want to see the demonstration, would you all please stand up? The DOE has projected the life-cycle cost of Yucca Mountain to be $150 billion. Look again at this copper flake which used to be radioactive thorium. Radioactivity can be eliminated. Do you really think it is necessary to squander $150 billion on Yucca Mountain? I want to hear from the audience a loud NO! Thank you, Gary C.

[CTRL] Chemical Weapons in Seattle
-Caveat Lector- MORE THAN TEAR GAS? From a report by the Direct Action Medical Collective, one of the groups that provided first aid during the Seattle demonstrations. KIRK JAMES MURPHY, MD: Individuals exposed to chemical weapons in the late afternoon and evening of December 1st at two locations downtown blocks adjacent to Pike Place Market and the Seattle neighborhood of Capitol Hill evinced and reported a pattern of symptoms which is inconsistent with the pattern of symptoms which may be ascribed to irritating agents. This "atypical" pattern of symptoms includes the rapid onset of: mydriasis (pupillary dilation) with resultant impairment of visual acuity; tachycardia (rapid heart rate) with some palpitations; new-onset hypertension (high blood pressure) in one individual; nausea, vomiting, diarrhea (persisting for days after exposure); abrupt or immediate onset of menstruation (asynchronous with usual menstrual cycle); muscular fasciculation (twitches); muscular dyscoordination; lethargy, confusion, disorientation, diminished concentration, nocturnal hallucinations. Moreover, some casualties reported an abrupt experience of loss of muscular tone and strength that sometimes (but not always) immediately preceded a loss of consciousness; one observer of these affected individuals reported uncontrolled, spasmodic movements in those affected. Some individuals exposed in the Pike Place Market area reported that the aforementioned symptoms came immediately after exposure to a non-irritating agent which was did not cause pain, lacrimation, or burning on mucous membranes. . . . The pattern of symptoms is not consistent with known mechanisms of action of the irritant chemical weapons OC, CS, or CN. The pattern, however, is consistent with disruption of neurotransmitter activity. Lamentably, the single most compelling explanation for the observed findings is the (deliberate or accidental) inclusion of "incapacitating agents" which disrupt neuronal function in the chemical munitions discharged by law enforcement agencies in Seattle during the WTO protest. While direct cholinergic effects or indirect (inhibition of acetylcholinesterase) effects arising from synergistic combinations (of OC, CS, and CN) cannot be ruled out at this time, the experience and observations Medical Collective members, together with the aforementioned information, appears to most robustly support the hypothesis that the casualties described above resulted from exposure to cholinesterase inhibitors used as chemical weapons in crowd control. The Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported on December 4 that the Seattle Police Department had to replenish its chemical weapons stocks by going to outside sources. Various individuals have reported being told by individual law enforcement officers that chemical weapons in addition to OC, CS, and CN were deployed by various entities; these anecdotal accounts are not yet confirmed. Any information regarding the use of chemical munitions in addition to OC, CS or CN, as well as information regarding the discharge of chemical weapons by agencies other than the Seattle Police Department would be helpful. . . . If you were exposed to chemical weapons during the WTO protests and have the pattern of "atypical" symptoms discussed below, please make a written, signed, and dated account of your exposure, including details such as the (approximate) location in which you were exposed and the date and part of the day (morning, midday, afternoon, evening) of your exposure, as well as the nature of your symptoms. Please send such accounts to the email above and to the ACLU unit investigating law enforcement actions in Seattle during the WTO protests.

[CTRL] [fwd] Ira Einhorn: FACTS FOR OPENERS
-Caveat Lector- The below article is forwarded from Ira Einhorn in France as his response to the failure of the American media to deal with any of the basic facts concerning the murder of Holly Maddux, and his evidentiary refutation of claims that he is responsible for this murder as is portrayed in numerous recent sensationalized media and "TV docudrama" accounts. To further his search for objective and qualified reporters to document "his side of the story", interested journalists may email to General Agency Services [EMAIL PROTECTED] for their communications to be relayed to Mr. Einhorn by email. [fwd from Ira Einhorn]: FACTS FOR OPENERS The most important aspect of any murder investigation are the forensics: the scientific reports connected to the physical evidence in the case. If the forensics do not agree with the prosecutor's theory of the case, the case is almost certainly a loser for the prosecution. The Assistant DA assigned to my case sent the physical evidence to the FBI instead of using the local expert whose job it was to handle such matters. The FBI turned in extensive reports that refuted every contention about the case that the DA made. These reports were withheld from us for a long period of time - though they were due to us by law. STRIKE ONE Then the evidence was sent to the prestigious scientific lab, National Medical Services of Willow Grove, PA, that did the work on the O.J. Simpson case, with the same result and the same delay in reporting to us. Strike TWO Then in desperation the evidence was turned over to the man whose competence was certainly questioned by being skipped over twice. He turned up some protein by using a test that he invented and that would have been deeply challenged. So not strike three, BUT this is not a baseball game, but a murder investigation in which there is normally one report, not the kind of shopping around described above. When the negative results were finally given to us and announced, the city's major magazine replied with an article that had blood on every page. There is no blood in the case. A badly smashed skull which should spray blood everywhere, as my jubilant lawyer explained to me, produced no blood anywhere in the apartment. There was no blood in the body. The conclusion of my lawyer was that Holly Maddux was not killed in my apartment. It was the off the record conclusion of one of the FBI men who did some of the forensic work. No wonder they went for a second opinion. It was also the conclusion of Kit Green who at that time was Director of the Life Science's Division of the CIA who is an expert in this area of knowledge and who looked into the case. The media went bat shit when I was arrested, came to the conclusion that I was guilty and then resolutely refused to deal with any evidence that contradicted their original assertions and conclusions, BUT did deal with the shopping habits of my wife at Friday market in Champagne - Mouton, so that the people of Philadelphia could read about my dinner the same day that I was eating it. What the prosecutor, Barbara Christie did however was a lot worse. She had a report in her possession that placed Holly Maddux in a bank and identified by three witnesses, six months after her supposed death at my hands. To keep this discovery from us, she shortened the pages of a larger report that was given to us, enabling her to avoid the pagination in the report and pull the incriminating pages out of the report. My lawyer smelled a rat and we eventually got the pages, BUT only after having to file a motion on the matter. This was news. Not a word about it in the press, so then and there I got the drift of things, lost all respect for the law as it was being practiced in Philadelphia and began to think about another life which became a reality when a third factor emerged that decided the issue. A factor I can't talk about as it involves a very paranoid person. Barbara Christie built a career on such fraudulent practice which is now coming back to haunt her, as this recent e-mail note from a lawyer friend indicates: - "Just yesterday and publicized today because yesterday was a holiday - Veteran's Day - came the PA Supreme Court decision (in Com. v. Raymond Martorano and Albert Daidone Nos. 0002 and No. 0003 E.D. Appeal Docket 1998) both of whom were convicted of the murder of union leader John McCollough (Roofer's) in 1984. The prosecutor was Barbara Christie and she carried out a pattern of prosecutorial misconduct which resulted in the first degree convictions being reversed and now, the PA Supreme Court has held that her conduct was so egregious and so calculated to deny a fair trial that double jeopardy under the state constitution bars a retrial. While the decision was 4-3 it is still a real blow to the DA's

The biggest danger for low-level radioactive wastes comes from the political damage. Few citizens want anything radioactive moved through or stored in their community. Fortunately, there are on-site treatments for such radioactive wastes as described below. 2. One method of treatment is "phyto-remediation" or remediation by using plants. The plants are grown in the radioactive soil or in the soil in which the radioactive low-level waste is buried. Plants take up and store the radioactive materials in roots or stems. Then the plant material can be carefully burned (without the release of smoke) and the ashes disposed of properly. The hemp-producing plants and sunflowers (among others) have been shown to be effective. There is some literature on this topic. The applications are best for soils (such as around Chernobyl) that have been contaminated. This process can concentrate some of the radioactive materials and reduce the overall local radioactivity. 3. Soil treatment is another method. It has been found (especially in Japan near the two areas where U.S. atomic bombs were exploded) that the degree of radioactivity in many soils reduced much faster than predicted by nuclear physicists. This type of handling of radioactivity needs further scientific treatment to determine the type of organisms that might optimize the handling of low-level radioactive wastes. 4. Many life forms have the ability to perform limited amounts of nuclear processes. The work of Kevran and Komaki should be considered. See the paper by Dr. John O'M. Bockris (retired distinguished professor at Texas AM) in the issue of the Journal of New Energy, being sent to the printer this week (vol 4, no 2). The above citations should be carefully considered in two ways: a. There should be more interest in finding ways for on-site handling of radioactive wastes. b. There should

[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'Skywatch' [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SO] AP: Judge OKs CIA Spending Secrecy Date: Tue, 23 Nov 1999 12:44:58 -0800 Monday November 22 4:56 PM ET Judge OKs CIA Spending Secrecy By TOM RAUM Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) - A federal judge on Monday ruled that the Clinton administration doesn't have to disclose what it spends on intelligence activities, dismissing a lawsuit by a group seeking publication of the total. U.S. District Judge Thomas Hogan sided with CIA Director George Tenet, who had refused to publicize the total on national security grounds. Those seeking the declassification of the spending figure argued that President Clinton had previously supported disclosure of the spending levels, for 1997 and 1998 - $26.6 billion and $26.7 billion, respectively. ``The fact that the president encouraged release of similar information in the earlier years is not determinative here,'' Hogan said in granting the government's motion for dismissal of the lawsuit brought by the Federation of American Scientists. ``The decision deprives the public of the most basic form of accountability,'' said Steven Aftergood, director of the federation's government secrecy project. ``But we are confident that sooner or later, this information will be declassified.'' He said no decision had been made on whether to appeal. The Justice Department told a hearing this month that while Clinton had earlier supported releasing the spending figures, Tenet had persuaded him otherwise, beginning with the fiscal 1999 budget. The intelligence budget, sometimes called ``black'' spending by Congress, is scattered and fragmented through dozens of defense and other programs in the federal budget to hide them from public scrutiny. The Senate late last week approved a bill authorizing spending on these programs for the fiscal year that began Oct. 1. Sources close to the legislation said that the total figure had grown from the $26.7 billion the government acknowledged in 1998 to about $29.5 billion. The Federation of American Scientists went to court to try to obtain the 1999 figures after the administration denied their Freedom of Information Act request seeking the number. Hogan, in his ruling, said that while the president clearly has the authority to release the figures on his own, Clinton ``never released or ordered the release of'' the most recent figures for intelligence spending - neither his request to Congress nor the total appropriated. CIA Director Tenet had argued in court papers that since the 1997 and 1998 levels were already known, publishing more recent figures would telegraph too much information about possible changes in spending patterns. ``The court must defer to ... Tenet's decision that release of a third consecutive year, amidst the information already publicly available, provides too much trend information and too great a basis for comparison and analysis for our adversaries,'' the judge wrote. -- Check out your group's private Chat room -- http://www.egroups.com/ChatPage?listName=endsecrecym=1 DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

Thanks!] Seattle Times: Posted at 09:45 p.m. PST; Sunday, November 28, 1999 Mark Trahant / Times Staff Columnist -Native American inmate as president not a far-fetched idea- A few months ago I was in Yelm visiting with an American Indian elder. We chatted about the twists and turns that one day become our future. Who knows what's coming, Janet McCloud said with a laugh: "Perhaps Leonard will even be president." As far-fetched as that may sound at home, across the globe it is a notion that makes sense. If South African prisoner Nelson Mandela could move from a cell to the world stage, why not Leonard Peltier, one of America's most famous inmates? "I am distressed, saddened and outraged that so many Americans have forgotten, or perhaps never known, who he is and what he represents," writes former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark in the introduction to Peltier's new book, "Prison Writings: My Life is a Sundance." Peltier may be better known outside the United States. "Enlightened people around the world see in him the struggle for all indigenous people for their lives, their dignity, their sovereignty and their future," Clark writes. Peltier's cause has been championed by dozens of world leaders, including Mandela. And as delegates arrive for this week's World Trade Organization conference, the Peltier case is a reminder the world has different perceptions of U.S. justice than most of us hold at home. This chapter of our nation's story began a quarter-century ago on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. On June 26, 1975, FBI agents Ronald Williams and Jack Coler chased a robbery suspect onto the reservation. Shots were exchanged between the FBI and members of the American Indian Movement. The agents were surrounded, wounded and shot fatally in the head. But the atmosphere at Pine Ridge then was one of war, not law enforcement. Confusion ran so deep that the government could not win convictions against three suspects. The case against Peltier proceeded on a different track. He was arrested in Canada, then tried in Fargo, N.D., and convicted of murder by a jury that had no sense of context about the events on Pine Ridge. Ever since, the White House has been flooded with petitions to grant Peltier clemency - prompting an equally intense response from those who believe in his guilt. A recent letter from former FBI agents calls Peltier a "thug." It argues that he was fairly convicted and that two appellate courts rightly refused to rehear his case. "Mr. President, since Leonard Peltier couldn't fool the federal courts, he is now trying to fool you and the public," said the agents, who have run newspaper ads across America. "Don't let him get away with it. Sympathy is appropriate only for the dead heroes and their surviving families." But what if the trial evidence was wrong? What if the first trial was unfair? Then is justice still served? Earlier this month a Canadian official posed those same questions. "I don't know whether or not Peltier fired those fatal shots," wrote Warren Allmand, Canada's minister of Indian affairs. "But

[CTRL] Kosovo and drug trade
-Caveat Lector- From: Mike Ruppert [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [CIA-DRUGS] Kosovo Date: Sunday, November 21, 1999 4:33 PM From: "Mike Ruppert" [EMAIL PROTECTED] I see the world being economically divided into three economic spheres of influence very much like in the book 1984: The Western Hemisphere, Europe, Asia and the Fare East with Africa as kind of a free trade zone as far as drugs go. I agree with Michel Chossudovsky of the University of Ottawa. I was with him last week and he presented at Ramsey Clark's tribunal on NATO war crimes. Kosovo and the Balkans have been re-colonized for Germany, the U.S. and Britain. The sphere of influence (economically) is denied to the Russians who are being compelled to look eastward. More and more drugs for the U.S. are Western Hemisphere produced. The KLA controls 70% of the heroin for Western Europe. European cocaine is, of course, from S. America because the coca leaf doesn't quite grow right anywhere else - yet. I really don't see a Maoist model at all. The so-called "commies" were never proven to have had a hand in any major drug trafficking here. The Chinese who ran the trade out of East Asia were nationalists and Tong/Triads out of Hong Kong. We do it to ourselves. Mainland China has NEVER been a major grower of any narcotic and the trade has been dominated by western capitalists. The opium that was first sent to China by the British was grown in India. It got the name China White because of Chinese chemists who could master the dangerous refinement from black tar to white powder and the Chinese smugglers in Hong Kong who banked the profits. What's happening with the KLA is for the benefit of the Euro.

When NATO inserted the KLA as the ruling authority in Kosovo, post-surgical bombing, of course, they knew the KLA had been provided armed protection for the Balkan Route. Does this lend further credibility to the "Council of 300" theory? If, in fact, the 300 have risen to power in large part by selling addictive drugs like heroin and opium, then they must be working with the Peoples Republic of China. Mao said, on and off from 1927 forward, that the government of the People should work WITH and not AGAINST the drug traffickers, because they would "anesthetize the West." He wanted the free world to be addicted to Chinese-grown drugs. Maybe Ruppert can comment on this. Odom - DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Audubon Magazine on Hemp, Nov-Dec'99
-Caveat Lector- Pubdate: Nov.-Dec. 1999 Source: Audubon Magazine Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Copyright: (c) 1999 National Audubon Society Website: http://www.audubon.com Author: Ted Williams LEGALIZE IT! Cannabis sativa is a low-maintenance crop that can be used in paper, clothing, rope-even cars. So why, when it's grown in 32 other countries, is hemp still illegal in the United States? I confess that i am a user of hemp. for example, i have just quaffed a Hempen Ale and a Hempen Gold beer, shipped to me by Frederick Brewing Company of Frederick, Maryland. Both beverages are brewed with the seeds of hemp-Cannabis sativa-a plant native to central Asia and grown all over the world as various selected strains, some of which are known as marijuana. I'm feeling a faint buzz, but only from the alcohol. Neither brew contains any of the narcotic delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which makes pot so popular. In fact, recent tests by the Pentagon invalidate what it calls the "Hempen Ale defense" by showing the ale to be THC-free. So military personnel can no longer claim it as the source of the THC that shows up in their urine. But some hemp products do contain trace amounts of THC-as intoxicating as, say, the opiates you get from a poppy-seed bagel-so to make sure it knows where the THC is coming from, the Air Force has banned all foods and beverages made with hemp. Somehow the news didn't make it to the Commander in Chief, who, less than a month later, on February 15, 1999, allowed Hempen Gold to be served on Air Force One. According to one reporter, the President "tasted but didn't swallow." After I finished ingesting hemp I slathered it on my hair-in the form of a shampoo made with hempseed oil, which, according to its producer, Alterna Applied Research Laboratories of Beverly Hills, California, restores dry and damaged (but unfortunately not missing) hair. While perky hair is not something I normally seek, the hair I have left definitely feels that way. What I have just indulged in-at least according to Glenn Levant, the nation's best-funded and most heeded marijuana educator-is an internal-external marijuana orgy. Levant is president and founder of Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE), a 16-year-old program taught by local police in 75 percent of the nation's schools. "Hemp is marijuana," he informed me, ending the interview when I cited sources that prove otherwise. Last year Levant was outraged to see Alterna's hemp-leaf logo on shampoo ads at bus stops around southern California, and he mounted a successful crusade to get them removed. "My big objection is that public property was being used to promote an illegal substance," he told the Los Angeles Times. "The shampoo is a subterfuge to promote marijuana." On July 1, 1999, he paid Alterna an undisclosed sum to settle a lawsuit it had filed against him for making what it called "false and malicious public comments" about its product and motives. Hemp and marijuana can cross-pollinate, but if one is the other, then a Pekinese is a Doberman pinscher. Plant a hemp seed, and no substance or force on earth can turn it into marijuana. If you smoke hemp, it will give you only a headache. This is because it doesn't contain enough THC to affect your brain. And, unlike marijuana, it is high in cannabidiol-an antipsychoactive compound that inhibits THC. Because of this, says David West, a plant breeder hired by the University of Hawaii to grow an experimental plot of hemp under special permit from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), hemp "could be called antimarijuana." Hemp products are not illegal. In fact, the U.S. hemp-products industry does about $125 million in retail sales a year. Not only is hemp harmless, it has enormous versatility. Added to worthless fibers that are currently burned-such as straw from oats, rice, and wheat-hemp can produce superb paper and construction materials lighter and stronger than lumber. American cropland, 85 percent of which is stuck on a soil-depleting, chemical-dependent treadmill of corn, wheat, and soybean production, could be released and renewed if hemp were used as a rotation crop. In England and Hungary, hemp grown in rotation with wheat hiked the wheat harvest 20 percent. Hemp seeds, better tasting and more digestible than soy, could be rendered into hundreds of foods, thereby taking pressure off America's bottomland hardwood forests, which are being replaced with soybean plantations. Hemp fibers can be woven into cloth more durable than and as comfortable as cotton. Cotton is much more difficult to grow; it's addicted to chemical elixirs, requiring massive fixes of artificial fertilizers, insecticides, and herbicides. And when cotton ripens, the leaves have to be knocked off with defoliants before the bolls can be harvested. Hemp, which outcompetes weeds, requires no herbicides. In one study, hemp grown in rotation with soybeans knocked down cyst nematodes by more than half. Hemp paper is naturally

-Caveat Lector- Thanks, Paul, it's a very good letter and should be posted soon at http://www.globalpeacenow.org. Thanks for taking the time to do it so we can expand the survival issue messages being carried by Global Peace Walk 2000 and inspire others to submit their letters/messages of support with their most important survival issues to be publicized and carried by GPW2000 from San Francisco to Washington DC to the United Nations next year. Based on responses so far, the nuclear abolition activists are not responding as well as others including the anti-war and anti-drug-war activists. We do not ask or expect supporters of Global Peace Walk 2000 to all endorse every survival issue message being carried by the walk, just to unite all messages and activists in the cause of "Global Peace Now!" as a universal human resolve and then to share the messages with the public, media, and governments, which those committed to this cause feel are most important for consideration to accomplish this goal. From: Paul Giroux [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: David Crockett Williams [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Your letter/message Date: Tuesday, November 16, 1999 6:01 AM To David Crockett Williams and all other organizers and supporters of the Global Peace Walk 2000: I will admit from the beginning that I am not the best of letter writers, but this is one cause that deserves to be promoted and encouraged. With the 3rd mellenium fast approaching and wars of one sort or another still going on in all parts of our world, we must find a way to end them. For now we are trying to limit the effects of war by decreasing the amount of nuclear weapons. Though this will decrease the destruction caused by war, it will not keep the war from starting in the first place. We fight for human rights, but how will we ever keep our human rights, when we as people are giving them all away in the name of the "War on Drugs". We no longer feel safe talking over the phone, or the computer or some of us even to have private conversation in our own homes. For me the best way to stop nuclear weapons is to stop the need for war in the first place. The best way to stop most of the wars, is to end the drug war that is going on now. Only when people can feel safe from government persecution, will it be possible to gain any sort of true human rights. And one of the best ways to end the drug war, is to end the prohibition that causes the drug war in the first place. It has already been shown the harms and ills that prohibition causes, one of them being the vast military and prison complexes that are being built all over the world. Isn't it sad that one of the most booming investments at this time is prisons and prison suppliers? Wouldn't it be much better if we were using all that money to build housing for the homeless, producing food for the poor, better schools for our kids, and many more things to that effect. Yes the 3rd millennium is fast approaching, but if it means I will not be free, I think I would rather skip it. End prohibition, after that everything will fall back into place, including the abolishment of nuclear weapons. Peace, Love and Light shine on all, Paul Giroux windofchange P.S. My name is Paul Giroux, I live in Quebec. I am trying to organize a Canadian branch of the GPW 2000. I would like to emphasize the ending of prohibition on the march. I would like to get all the smokers to just stand up for their rights in order to end prohibition. Everything else for now is secondary to me. Remember May 6th, 2000 is Mayday and it will be time to stand up. http://www.cures-not-wars.org GPW 2000 will help to drive it home. This is the year to make prohibition go away and start the new millennium with acceptance of others' way of life. If you would like to help out let me know.

o have as much to do with just what, or who, this plane was carrying. Dr. Richard Spohn Brokaw, former head of the Division of Physics and Chemistry at NASA Lewis in Ohio (now renamed the "NASA Glenn Research Center"), was a passenger along with his wife. Officially retired from NASA in 1973, Brokaw was part of a tour group on board the ill fated flight. This in of itself is hardly suspicious, until you remember the incredible (and now verified) symbolism around this flight, and the unique role of NASA Lewis (during Brokaw's tenure) in creating NASA's own "Egyptian motif." It was Abe Silverstein, a colleague of Brokaw's and Director of NASA Lewis, who was the one that named "Apollo" (the Greek version of Horus) in the first place. But more, he was the one who oversaw the creation of the original Apollo patch, which paid homage to the Egyptian god Osiris in the form of the constellation Orion! For those of you who do not keep copies of Monuments by the bedside, NASA Lewis will be familiar as the location of no less than 2 presentations and a planned Special NASA PBS production on Cydonia in the late 80's and early 90's, by Enterprise principal investigator Richard C. Hoagland (until these were stopped by vehement protests from JPL to NASA Headquarters). It is also the location of NASA's exotic Breakthrough Propulsion Program, which among other things has conducted recent confirmatory tests on the Finish anti-gravity experiments. It is also the location where Hoagland arranged a series of his own Hyperdimensional Physics experiments. At Hoagland's behest, NASA Lewis conducted several tests of Dr. Bruce Depalma's Hyperdimensional energy machines (see the UN video) in the early 90's. While the final results have never been revealed, it is odd that someone intimately involved with the Center and it's symbolic history was on this particular airplane, on that night ... headed for Cairo. After all, it is an apparent "Hyperdimensional" signature we see in the ELFRAD data. Certainly, the presence of a former high ranking NASA physicist on a trip to Egypt is yet another reason to be suspicious of what happened to this flight. While admittedly speculative, we cannot help but wonder (now that we have ascertained that someone of Dr. Brokaw's background was aboard) if the further persistent rumors -- that this plane was carrying some kind of "special cargo," bound for Giza -- could, in fact, be true ... As always; Stay Tuned ... The Enterprise Mission P. O. Box 1130 Placitas NM 87043 FAX (505) 771-0820 Steve Wingate California Director SKYWATCH INTERNATIONAL Anomalous Images and UFO Files http://www.anomalous-images.com *** http://www.enterprisemission.com/egyptair.htm [excerpts:] Add to that the fact that according to the Pentagon there were 33 Egyptian military officers on board Operation "Bright Star!" "Bright Star," for those of you that are symbolically challenged, is named for the brightest star in the sky -- Sirius -- the celestial equivalent of the ancient Egyptian goddess Isis. Think of it as "Operation Sirius" or "Operation Isis." During this massive military exercise (which ended November 2nd) involving 11 nations (with another 33 invited to observe) and huge amounts of US troops and equipment, Defense Secretary William Cohen made it clear that "Bright Star" was aimed squarely at Saddam Hussien. Libyan strongman Mohramar Khaddafi cannot have been pleased to have such a large US contingent on his border, either. Yet not one newsman has considered aloud whether one or the both of them may have taken a measure of revenge on their Arab neighbor by downing one of their commercial planes? We also cannot help but notice that if anything does come down on November 7th, just five days after the completion of the exercise, there would be plenty of US troops in a position to protect the "Holy Land." Clearly, there are some unanswered questions about what happened to this flight. Just as clearly, the US news media is rushing to the judgment that it was not a terrorist act, despite plenty of "conventional" reasons to suspect that it was. Besides the circumstantial evidence we have amassed here, the strange events of the flight itself, the swift denial of these same events, the curious disinterest on the part of media in pursuing these issues and the stunning "death" theme of the stellar alignments (see below), what proof do we have that this plane was killed? That this was not just an "accident?" We have a smoking gun.

-Caveat Lector- [Most Excellent Message Mike, thanks!!]--dcw Michael C. Ruppert Publisher/Editor From The Wilderness http://www.copvcia.com November 11, 1999 Message In Support of Global Peace Walk 2000 To David Crockett Williams and all of the dedicated organizers of Global Peace Walk 2000... Mankind's entry into a new era is a forgone conclusion. It is in progress all around us. What remains unclear is how the exact nature of this new era will be realized as we get there. In one case there is evidence of an increasingly repressive political and economic hegemony, driven by out-of-control pressures and the need to dominate world markets. There is still other evidence that imminent breakdowns and shortcomings of technology may usher in an era of retrogression, conflict and fear. At the same moment other evidence points to the unbridled, creative expansion of the human spirit through the uncensored and ever expanding Internet and our newly discovered ability to reach all parts of the planet with the speed of thought. In the midst of all of this, regional conflicts, wars, atrocities and rumors of war continue to rob mankind of the spiritual legs needed to cross the cusp of the new era - and to define its essence. From my perspective, as one who has devoted twenty years to exposing a shadow government of intelligence, financial and political operatives - protected by a wall of unhealthy, destructive laws - who wage a so-called "war on drugs" with huge budgets while, at the same time, hypocritically benefiting from the profits of the drug trade, I cannot state strongly enough that a powerful demonstration of the desire for peace in all areas of life is essential at this moment in our history. The effects of war are clear: destruction of the human spirit, destruction of property, destruction of human rights, the illegal transfer of wealth, destruction of the environment, the violation of nature, the dissolution of families and social structure. All of these things are byproducts of a war on drugs which today consumes $70 billion of American resources, incarcerates an ever increasing number of non-violent drug offenders and gives rise to the incremental erosion of legal and human rights all over the planet. As evidenced in Colombia, Burma, Pakistan, Kosovo, Mexico and right here at home, the drug trade also leads to wholesale slaughter and bloodshed. Any quest for peace cannot be successful without addressing the causes of war. Throughout mankind's history perhaps the primary cause of war has been the quest for economic power and political security. Any quest to remove the causes of war is neither honest nor sincere unless it challenges the billions of dollars generated by the drug trade which provide an almost inexhaustible stream of money to purchase the weapons of war in use around the planet. Any quest for peace must also fail if it does not address events that sever mankind from its Creator. The irrational demonization of a God-created plant, like cannabis, and the prohibition of its use as a medicine for the suffering exemplifies the lack of reason behind all war. It shows that the war on drugs, as practiced, is also a war on the human spirit. Having participated in preparatory events for the Global Peace Walk 2000, and being in complete harmony with its objectives, please permit me to express my complete support to Reverend Yusen Yamato, David Crockett Williams and all of the organizers who have worked so hard to make it a success. Let the action of your kegs, moving in harmony and rhythm across this nation remind those with louder voices, bigger laws, more guns and who are driven by fear that the human spirit, in its hunger for peace, is more powerful than anything.

[CTRL] GW Bush flies in CIA drug smuggler's airplane, Why?
-Caveat Lector- Why Does George W. Bush Fly in Drug Smuggler Barry Seal's Airplane? by Daniel Hopsicker and Michael C. Ruppertwww.copvcia.com (c) Excerpts:* From The Wilderness, Vol. II., No. 8, October 31, 1999 It has all the makings of a major box office thriller: Texas Governor and Republican Presidential contender George W. Bush and his brother Jeb, allegedly caught on videotape in 1985 picking up kilos of cocaine at a Florida airport in a DEA sting set up by Barry Seal... An ensuing murderous cover-up featuring Seal's public assassination less than a year later by a hit team...the members of which, when caught, reveal to their attorneys during trial that their actions were being directed by then, National Security Council (NSC) staffer - Lt. Colonel Oliver North... And a private turboprop King Air 200 supposedly caught on tape in the sting with FAA ownership records leading directly to the CIA and some of the perpetrators of the most notorious (and never punished) major financial frauds of the '80s. ...Greek shippers paying bribes to obtain loans from American companies that would never be repaidAn American executive snatching the charred remains of a $10,000 payoff check from an ashtray in an Athens restaurant...Swiss police finding bank accounts used for kickbacks and bribes... Add to this mix the now irrefutable proof, some of it from the CIA itself, that then Vice President George H.W. Bush was a decision maker in illegal Contra support operations connected to the "unusual" acquisition of aircraft and that his staff participated in key financial, operational and political decisions... All these events lead inexorably to one unanswered question: How did this one plane go from being controlled by Barry Seal, the biggest drug smuggler in American history, to becoming, according to state officials, a favored airplane of Texas Governor George W. Bush? --- Three months into an exhaustive investigation of persistent reports dating to 1995 that there exists an incriminating videotape of current Republican Presidential front-runner Bush caught in a hastily-aborted DEA cocaine sting, the central allegation remains unproven... But some startling details have been confirmed, amid a raft of new suspicions emerging from conflicting FAA records. Those records, along with other irrefutable documents, point to the existence of far more than mere happenstance or dark "conspiracy theorist speculations" in the matter of how George W. Bush came to be flying the friendly Texas skies in an airplane that was a crown jewel in the drug smuggling fleet of the notorious Barry Seal. Those documents reveal - beyond any doubt - that in the 1980s Barry Seal, with whom the CIA has consistently denied any relationship, piloted and controlled airplanes owned by the same Phoenix Arizona company, Greycas, which in a 1998 bankruptcy filing, was revealed to have been a subsidiary of the same company that owned the now defunct CIA proprietary airline Southern Air Transport. The investigation started with a lead into the history of the aircraft (a 1982 Beechcraft King Air 200 with FAA registration number N6308F - Serial Number BB-1014). The handwritten tail number was found in records kept by Seal's widow and later linked to other "hard paper" records left by Seal after his 1986 assassination by "drug traffickers" who were subsequently connected to Oliver North. Those records, including leasing agreements, insurance policies and maintenance records, exhibit a deliberately-confusing "paper trail" of convoluted ownership recalling the 'glory' days of the Iran Contra hearings, where the machinations of American covert intelligence operators were unmasked before a disbelieving public. Combined with revelations in a 1998 CIA Inspector General's report of Contra-era cocaine trafficking in which the CIA admits to "briefing" then Vice President Bush on how it lied to Congress about cocaine trafficking by its agents, it becomes clear that father and son have common secrets to conceal from the American public. That report, Volume II of the CIA Inspector General's report into allegations of Contra cocaine trafficking can be viewed at http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/cocaine2/index.html. A detailed discussion of that report, along with relevant excerpts is available at www.copvcia.com. Unraveling the plane's tangled and colorful history requires, first, a brief look backwards at the momentous year of 1982, when President Reagan first introduced the public version of "Project Democracy," in which he called for a "crusade for freedom." What it became instead was a license to murder, loot and steal. This climate was the nursery into which N6308F was born [Excerpted* from From The Wilderness, Vol. II., No. 8, October 31, 1999 - Single issues are available for $5.00 from FTW, P.O.

However, if we are serious about abolishing nuclear weapons -- it's probably not very realistic to talk about "by the year 2000" anymore -- within the next decade or so, then I do suggest that it is necessary for us to be brutally honest about where the movement has come from, where it is going, what it is actually accomplishing, what it is actually failing to accomplish, and why. We may not be accomplishing much in our eyes at this very moment, My reason for being in this movement is, I think, a pragmatic one: ie, to eliminate nuclear weapons. Therefore, if it seems the movement is failing to accomplish that end, is it impolite for me to ask, "Why?" If there were no nukes, there would be no need for an anti-nuke movement. If there are still nukes, wouldn't it be somewhat accurate to say, "The nuclear abolition movement has been unsuccessful?" Further, if the movement hasn't been successful, whose fault would it be? If I don't think we're accomplishing much, would it be wrong to ask, "How can we accomplish more?" On the other hand, is it possible that some of us may think we are accomplishing far more than we actually are? If that were the case, mightn't we continue to run a losing course, thereby precluding the possibility of actually accomplishing our goal? but we must continue our efforts, for they are the seeds of a more peaceful and just world. By all means. But, if we discover that our efforts have been futile (not completely futile, just less productive than desired), must we continue in those less than successful efforts, or would it be wiser to seek alternative strategies and tactics? If we do not relentlessly continue to put pressure on our government, if we do not continue to educate the public, if we do not continue to bring a broader awareness to all, if we do not carry the torch and pass it onto future generations, if we do not colesce others to join our efforts, then I ask who will? I don't know. Except, I've never suggested anyone else should. All I'm wondering is: Exactly what efforts would be most optimal for us to coalesce behind in order to put pressure on the government, educate the public, and cultivate a more peaceful and just world? Although it is important, I don't believe that the amount of progress is as vital as our will and motivation to make that progress. I agree wholeheartedly that will and motivation are very important. Still, can we agree that the amount of progress our movement achieves is also very important? Our goal will be achieved once the will of the people and the polity elites has been changed, Almost precisely the question I'm asking: How do we channel the will of the people to alter the polity elite? and who better to work towards that than those
[CTRL] DEA Hemp Seizure: For the birds
-Caveat Lector- Subject: DEA Hemp Seizure: For the birds Date: Wednesday, October 27, 1999 7:19 PM THE DETROIT METRO TIMES Detroit, Michigan October 27, 1999 Metro Beat Seizure: For the birds By Gretchen A. Van-Monette The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency has flexed its zero tolerance muscles in an effort to protect Americans from THC the psychoactive component of marijuana by halting a truckload of sterile, and, for all intents and purposes, THC-free hemp seeds on their way to a birdseed manufacturer in Baltimore. Seventeen tons of seed have been sitting in a metro Detroit warehouse since the shipment from Canada was seized in early August. Meanwhile, the Canadian and United States hemp industries are left to wonder what impact this action will have on their business. Jean Laprise, owner of Kenex Ltd. in Chatham, Ontario, and producer of the confiscated hemp seeds, is flabbergasted by this entanglement in an otherwise smooth re-emergence of the Canadian hemp industry. Canada endorsed the growing of industrial hemp almost a year and a half ago. Since then, Kenex has been delivering shipments of hemp seeds, cosmetic- and food-grade oil and horse bedding to customers across the United States. U.S. Customs first demanded that Kenex turn over its records and recall shipments as far back as 1998, or face a fine in excess of $500,000. This is impossible, laments Laprise in a recent New York Times article, because the products have been used. How can you recall hemp seeds, an essential ingredient in the popular Nutiva hemp bar, that were already consumed? Conditions for release of the seeds, valued at $25,000, have apparently now changed. According to Laprise, the DEA notified him last week that in exchange for releasing the hemp seeds, Kenex must pay a seizure cost between $5,000 and $10,000 and sign a hold harmless agreement, which basically says the government agencies did nothing wrong and they cant be sued at a later date. But even then, Laprise says Kenex has no guarantee future shipments will not be stopped at the border. Those are unacceptable conditions that we are being forced to accept, under protest, Laprise says. The DEA gave the orders to U.S. Customs officials to seize the shipment, based on the notion that industrial hemp seeds may be contaminated with THC, the component necessary to get high from smoking marijuana. Canadian grade industrial hemp is regulated to 0.3 percent THC; commercial pot generally has 8 percent to 20 percent THC. In a statement, the DEA asserted the U.S. Controlled Substance Act of 1937 defines hemp as marijuana. Hemp advocates maintain that sterilized hemp seeds are specifically excluded from Schedule I classification of marijuana in the Controlled Substance Act. Industrial hemp seeds are also specifically highlighted in NAFTA as a legal U.S. import, hemp advocates say. Industrial hemp has been imported for years from such countries as Britain, France, Germany, the Soviet Union, and lately Canada. Because hemp production is outlawed in the United States, importation is the only option available to American companies that use hemp products. This move by the DEA is raising a ruckus in government circles in Canada. In a letter to Commissioner Raymond Kelley of the United States Customs Service, Canadian Minister Douglas Waddel expressed concern: The treatment of this company, and in particular the lack of due process and the failure by the U.S. to follow normal Customs procedures, are matters of particular concern to Canadian authorities. Moreover, Canada considers this seizure action to be contrary to U.S. NAFTA and WTO obligations. Some hemp entrepreneurs worry this incident will stymie the industrial hemp movement. Don Wirtshafter, founder of the Ohio Hempery, is quite disturbed about what happened. The (DEA) has shaken all confidence in the hemp and the hemp food industry, says Wirtshafter. We were just at the point of success and they knocked our legs out from under us.(END) http://www.metrotimes.com/20/04/Metrobeat/metrobet.html#2 om DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Nukes Shut Down, say ex-Air Force Officers, by UFO's
-Caveat Lector- Fwd: (Need a little help with Global Nuclear Disarmament? :-) go to** UFO Research Should Focus On Nuclear Weapons Incidents Former custodian at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Great Falls, Robert Hastings: "Over the period of my research, dozens of ex-Air Force officers have told me that UFOs have the ability to shut down nuclear launches - their presence over silos creates missile system failures," he said. "It is clear that the focal point for UFO investigations is with regard to nuclear weapons," he said. --- Source: U_WIRE UFO guru warns U. Montana of alien life Updated 12:00 PM ET October 19, 1999 By Khris Carlson Montana Kaimin U. Montana (U-WIRE) MISSOULA, Mont. -- The U.S. government possesses a massive amount of information confirming that UFOs do exist and the time is now for people to begin educating themselves, a UFO researcher and former janitor said Monday night. Speaking to a crowd of two hundred in Urey Lecture Hall at the University of Montana, UFO guru Robert Hastings, a former custodian at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Great Falls, presented a lecture and slide show highlighting recently unclassified documents regarding UFO sightings and the government's attempts to hide the truth from the lay-people of America. Citing records from various government agencies, Hastings described sensitive documents confirming UFO sightings over Montana in 1975 and told of his own experience here in 1967 when a similar UFO sighting occurred. According to the documents presented by Hastings, the Defense Department reported a number of UFO sightings at highly sensitive nuclear missile silos and atomic bomb storage units near Malmstrom. "Over the period of my research, dozens of ex-Air Force officers have told me that UFOs have the ability to shut down nuclear launches - their presence over silos creates missile system failures," he said. In other words, if Osama bin-Laden strikes a deal with aliens, we could be in for it. Hastings, who makes $1,850 per lecture, says that it is no coincidence that reported UFO sightings have risen with the increased development of nuclear weapons and energy sites since the mid-20th century. "It is clear that the focal point for UFO investigations is with regard to nuclear weapons," he said. Hastings spent 30 minutes of his two-hour lecture with a slide presentation documenting the history of alien spacecraft sightings in America. "The fact that it has occurred is highly documented," he said. Hastings has gathered hundreds of pages of documents released under the Freedom of Information Act, enabling him to travel across the country to spread the news. "It is a question of time before all the answers come out," he said. "Educate yourselves with information on UFO's."

I believe that Holmes Norton should be supported for this initiative. I have distributed the bill in a variety of fora, including to representatives arguing against nuclear weapons in the International Court of Justice, with the result that it was referred to in the 1995-6 case. This is a fact. And your efforts have been greatly appreciated, Alyn. Fortunately, you are an Australian citizen. Unfortunately, the support needed for Norton's bill must come from US citizens. What is necessary is for millions of US citizens to insist that their congressional representatives support Norton's bill. However, there are a number of problems with the bill which make it difficult to swing in behind with wholehearted support. 1. Requirement to "Refrain from all military operations". While I am personally a Pacifist and would support this statement, it precludes those congresspeople who would support nuclear disarmament but not yet support a pacifist US policy. It also could be inferred to prevent US participation in UN peacekeeping operations. It must be tough to be a Pacifist politician; as a "politician," I imagine, the "Pacifist" would eventually be forced to speak out of both sides of his mouth. (Didn't something like that recently happen to some Greens in Germany?) Personally, as a Pacifist, my problem is those congresspeople who might "support" nuclear disarmament yet would remain militarists. For one thing, congresspeople who entertain that dualistic mind set seem to be seriously out of touch with reality. Consider the value of nuclear weaponry: simply, they are the most advanced weapons. It is axiomatic that the best defense is a good offense. It is also axiomatic that the best offense is the most murderous offense. Notwithstanding the fact that the US has demonstrated its' ability to bomb nations into the stone age with conventional weaponry, to my way of thinking, any congressperson who claims to support the elimination of nuclear weapons, but wants to continue with a strong military would be either a bad general, a clever liar, or living in Fantasyland. What's the point of having a military that's not capable of annihilating its' enemies? I know that if I believed in peace through strength, or that might makes right, I wouldn't beat my best weapon into any ploughshare. As a Pacifist, rather than play patty cake with a bunch of wingnut congresspeople, I'd prefer to encourage them to change their perspective of reality. And isn't that what a grassroots movement is supposed to do; convince government to change its' perspective of reality? 2. "This Act shall take effect when the President certifies to the Congress that all foreign countries possessing nuclear weapons have established legal requirements comparable to those set forth in section 2 and those requirements have taken effect." The requirement that all foreign countries possessing nuclear weapons must "undertake vigorous good faith efforts to eliminate war, armed conflict, and all military operations (from Section 2)" is too stringent and allows the US an easy excuse not to implement the bill, ie if Russia is in armed conflict with Chechnya, the US can refuse to implement the ill. First, point 2 seems to be point 1 in disguise ("support nuclear disarmament but not yet support a pacifist US policy"). Second, if this section is too stringent to be taken seriously, then what can be said of the initial promise of the UN Charter: "to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war?" (Reminds me of the League of Women Voters' spokeswoman who said that, although her organization and our organization both support the elimination of nuclear weapons,

Members of a citizens' peace movement marched Sunday in 15 cities and dozens of smaller towns for a cease-fire, a rapid settlement and an end to violence against civilians the conflict's principal victims. Waving red, blue and yellow Colombian flags and chanting slogans like ``For Peace, Not One More Shot. For Peace, Not One More Kidnapping,'' hundreds of thousands streamed through the main avenues of Bogota, Medellin and Cali, the country's three biggest cities. Entire families, from toddlers in strollers to elderly people aided by canes, joined stiltwalkers, mime artists and folk musicians in a festive atmosphere with a serious message. The protest's main slogan printed on T-Shirts and small flags carried by marchers was simple: ``No More.'' Rebels leave Uribe after the start of peace talks [photo] AP/Ricarrdo Mazalan [image not copied] Organizers said more than 5 million people turned out nationwide, 2 million of them in the capital. There was a sense of urgency to the marches. The conflict is worsening, the economy is in its deepest recession since the 1930s and thousands of upper- and middle-class Colombians are fleeing abroad. In Uribe, a southern rebel-controlled town where negotiations with the leftist Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, were formally inaugurated on Sunday after months of delays, rebel commanders put their own spin on the ``No More'' message. The FARC contends the government has done nothing to address deeply rooted social inequity or halt death squad activity by right-wing paramilitary groups who have for decades silenced left-wing politicians with assassinations. ``We must support a solution to Colombia's social and political crisis, and say once and for all: No more state terrorism disguised as paramilitarism ... No more illiteracy, no more political corruption, no more homeless Colombians,'' chief rebel negotiator Raul Reyes said in a speech at the launch of formal negotiations with the government. Many of the townspeople watching the ceremony held under a corrugated steel roof on the town's basketball court sported T-shirts handed out earlier by rebels that read: ``No More Gringo Military,'' a reference to the stepped-up U.S. military aid being used by Colombia's government to fight guerrilla units that protect the illegal drug trade. On the dusty streets outside, guerrilla banners demanded: ``No More Unemployment,'' ``No More Massacres,'' ``No More Torture.'' Reyes said the guerrilla slogans were not intended to mock the nascent citizens' peace movement, but to explain what the FARC feels are the true causes of Colombia's civil strife. Organizers of Sunday's marches said they hoped they would establish a trend in a country where years of violence and assassinations of peace activists have bred indifference and apathy. Marching in Bogota's morning drizzle with his wife and two children, 38-year old publicist Nestor Dionisio was one newly-converted protester. ``I've always been indifferent. This is the first time I've marched with my family,'' he said, pushing his 2-year-old daughter in a stroller with a white peace balloon attached to it. After his election last year, President Andres Pastrana raised hopes for an end to a conflict that has claimed more than 35,000 lives with a daring visit to the jungle hide-out of FARC chieftain Manuel Marulanda, but that optimism slumped when talks became bogged down in arguments over ground rules. Many Colombians were jolted into action by a surge this year in guerrilla kidnappings and the August assassination of Jaime Garzon, a beloved comic and prominent peace advocate. But not everyone has great faith in the negotiations. Skeptics say the fledgling peace movement still lacks direction and a clear

-Caveat Lector- **RADIATION ALERT-BEIR VII** COMMENTS DUE OCTOBER 24 (Sign-on letter coming soon.) The National Academy of Sciences (NAS) has again only slightly altered the membership on its Radiation Committee: Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation or BEIR VII. The changes have done nothing to balance the committee. THE PANEL IS STILL WEIGHTED HEAVILY IN FAVOR OF SAVING THE NUCLEAR INDUSTRY MONEY AT THE EXPENSE OF HEALTH AND SAFETY. The BEIR VII Committee members are mainly scientists who claim low-dose radiation is less harmful than currently presumed. We have not completed our review of the work of Dr. Daniel Krewski, the sole addition to the panel, but it is clear that he is not of the school that indicates current risk estimates understate actual risks from ionizing radiation. Thus, the panel remains as imbalanced as before. The National Academy of Sciences still refuses to include any of a number of credible scientists who have shown low-dose radiation to be even MORE HARMFUL than current official estimates. The NAS still refuses to release CONFLICT OF INTEREST forms or more complete resumes for the panel members. At the last BEIR VII "public" meeting an appeal was made to the panel members themselves to submit these documents voluntarily. Only ONE panel member who was present at that meeting has given over a more complete resume. Not one member has publicly revealed their conflicts of interest. THE PUBLIC HAS UNTIL OCTOBER 24, 1999 TO COMMENT TO THE NAS. To do so, paste this link in your address browser location: http://www4.nas.edu/webcr.nsf/open+for+comment/?OpenView and select the BEIR VII Committee (about 11th on the list). You comment directly on their web site. Include in your email message the BEIR VII project # BRER-K-98-02-A. The membership list (sixteen permanent, one provisional) with incomplete biographies (and no conflict of interest forms), can also be found at this web address. SEND IN YOUR COMMENTS: 1) Tell them to DISSOLVE THE BIASED PANEL and start over in order to COMPLY WITH THE LAW. 2) Tell them you know the panel DOES NOT HAVE scientists whose work shows radiation is more dangerous than currently assumed; and the panel IS HEAVILY WEIGHTED with scientists who believe that radiation is less dangerous than currently assumed. 3) Request a 3-week extension of the comment period, release of complete CVs and conflict of interest forms, so adequate review is possible. ***We will be circulating a sign-on letter in a few days, but please also comment separately to the NAS web site.*** The decision of these committee members will affect radioactive disposal and cleanup sites, recycling of radioactive waste into consumer products, nuclear power and weapons facilities' emissions, decommissioning and a whole host of other radiation issues which affect human health, not only in the United States, but overseas as well. The industry hopes that the BEIR VII panel will recommend relaxed radiation standards, permitting more radioactive contamination to be left in place at contaminated sites, more radioactivity to be released into our air, water and consumer products. The industry can save billions of dollars if this panel is left unchecked by reputable scientists whose research shows radiation is more damaging than is currently recognized.

[CTRL] US Woman Seeks Political Asylum In Canada
-Caveat Lector- Subject: A US Woman Seeks Political Asylum In Canada, Claiming Persecution Date: Wednesday, October 20, 1999 4:57 PM Christian Science Monitor 10/19/99 A US Woman Seeks Political Asylum In Canada, Claiming Persecution In Marijuana Case. Christian Science Monitor 10/19/99 by Ruth Walker A US woman wanted in California for conspiring to sell marijuana is fighting extradition from Canada on the grounds that she is a political refugee - from the war on drugs. Her belief in the medicinal value of marijuana makes her in effect a member of a persecuted group, her lawyer argues. This case is more than an unprecedented legal gambit. It also illustrates the contradictory laws and enduring sensitivity of marijuana as a public issue in the United States and Canada. It's been nearly three years since Golden State voters approved a new law allowing medicinal use of cannabis. But questions about how sick people are to be supplied with their newly legal medicine remain to be resolved, and US federal authorities remain adamant in their opposition to state laws such as California's Proposition 215, the Compassionate Use Act. Prosecutions for distribution of marijuana continue. And so Renee Boje, arrested in 1997 in the Bel Air, Calif., home of Todd McCormick, a high-profile advocate of medicinal marijuana, has been charged with conspiracy to distribute the drug, an offense carrying a sentence of 10 years to life. She faces an extradition hearing Nov. 1 in Vancouver. "She's caught in the cross-fire of the war on drugs," says Maury Mason, her spokesman, in Roberts Creek, British Columbia. Political Factor A US official requesting anonymity calls the use of the term "political asylum" by Ms. Boje's advocates "an artificial way of casting the discussion," but acknowledges, "There's always a major political element in a drug case." But Boje's lawyer, John Conroy, of Abbotsford, British Columbia, insists, "It's not a stretch to say that it's a political issue." The severity of the sentence she faces if convicted indicates an "unjust and oppressive" justice system, Mr. Conroy argues. He suggests that the charge she would face if the case were playing out in Canada would be "aiding and abetting cultivation" of the drug - with a maximum sentence of seven years. Mr. Mason, a former media director for the environmental group Greenpeace, says the campaign on Boje's behalf has two purposes, "One, to get her off, and two, to send a message to the US: Take a look at your own drug policy." But the Boje case is unfolding at a time when Canada is going through its own struggle over the issue of medical marijuana. Currently, those wishing to use the drug legally for medicinal purposes - to alleviate pain or control side effects from other drugs - must apply to the federal health minister in Ottawa. Getting permission has been widely deemed cumbersome and bureau- cratic, a process in which he has broad, if not complete, discretion. This month 14 applications were approved - bringing the total of legal marijuana smokers to 16 across Canada. But at the same time, federal lawyers have been in court in Toronto, seeking to overturn a provincial court's ruling allowing an individual diagnosed as epileptic to smoke marijuana legally to control what are described as life-threatening seizures. In 1997, an Ontario court gave Terry Parker permission to smoke marijuana free of prosecution. But Ottawa lawyers are arguing that this permission usurps federal authority; Mr. Parker should make application to the health minister like the others. On both sides of the border, legal supply of the drug is an issue. "People didn't pass Proposition 215 with the thought of sick people having to go downtown to a dark alley to buy their medicine," says Rand Martin, chief of staff for California State Sen. John Vasconcellos. The senator has introduced legislation to set up a registry of people with legal permission for medicinal marijuana. If the system is implemented, a police officer would be able to check on someone's marijuana status as easily as he could check on outstanding parking tickets. Yet people allowed to use medicinal marijuana are often too ill to grow their own. And because marijuana is a plant and not a manufactured product like aspirin, there's not an obvious role for pharmaceutical companies to play, observes Eugene Oscapella, an Ottawa lawyer and a founding member of the Canadian Drug Policy Foundation. But if restrictions on medicinal marijuana were relaxed as fully as advocates would like, marijuana could be as widely used, he suggests, as an over-the-counter painkiller. Buyers' Clubs It is in this void that "buyers' clubs" have developed, such as the Compassion Club of Vancouver, a registered charity set up to supply seriously ill people with marijuana. In Canada these clubs have generally worked out a modus vivendi with the police. In California, activists in such organizations have been

According to senior military and intelligence sources in Europe and the US the Chinese embassy was removed from a prohibited targets list after Nato electronic intelligence (Elint) detected it sending army signals to Milosevic's forces. The story is confirmed in detail by three other Nato officers - a flight controller operating in Naples, an intelligence officer monitoring Yugoslav radio traffic from Macedonia and a senior headquarters officer in Brussels. They all confirm that they knew in April that the Chinese embassy was acting as a 'rebro' [rebroadcast] station for the Yugoslav army (VJ) after alliance jets had successfully silenced Milosevic's own transmitters. The Chinese were also suspected of monitoring the cruise missile attacks on Belgrade, with a view to developing effective counter-measures against US missiles. The intelligence officer, who was based in Macedonia during the bombing, said: 'Nato had been hunting the radio transmitters in Belgrade. When the President's [Milosevic's] residence was bombed on 23 April, the signals disappeared for 24 hours. When they came on the air again, we discovered they came from the embassy compound.' The success of previous strikes had forced the VJ to use Milosevic's residence as a rebroadcast station. After that was knocked out, it was moved to the Chinese embassy. The air controller said: 'The Chinese embassy had an electronic profile, which Nato located and pinpointed.' The Observer investigation, carried out jointly with Politiken newspaper in Denmark, will cause embarrassment for Nato and for the British government. On Tuesday, the Queen and the Prime Minister will host a state visit by the President of China, Jiang Zemin. He is to stay at Buckingham Palace. Jiang Zemin is still said to be outraged at the 7 May attack, which came close to splitting the alliance.The official Nato line, as expressed by President Bill Clinton and CIA director George Tenet, was that the attack on the Chinese Embassy was a mistake. Defence Secretary William Cohen said: 'One of our planes attacked the wrong target because the bombing instructions were based on an outdated map.' Later, a source in the US National Imagery and Mapping Agency said that the 'wrong map' story was 'a damned lie'.

[CTRL] Cold Fusion
-Caveat Lector- From: Hal Fox [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Cold Fusion Date: Monday, October 18, 1999 Dear Friends: As a professional scientist, I have spent the past ten years (plus) since the announcement of "cold fusion" in tracking down, investigating, and reporting on a variety of proposed new energy devices. Our group (Fusion Information Center and Trenergy, Inc.) have published hundreds of articles and collected, read, and reported on over 3,000 professional papers on various new-energy devices, systems, proposals, and theories. In a capsule paragraph, here are the results: 1. Cold fusion does work (over 600 papers from over 200 laboratories in 30 countries have reported successes). However, none of the varieties of cold fusion devices are (as yet) robust, easily replicated, and offer no threat to the hot-fusion community. 2. The "Cincinnati Group" has shown both excess thermal energy and nuclear reactions from a special electrochemical configuration. The most important finding is the ability to reduce the radioactivity in some aqueous solutions. We have replicated and extended this work in Trenergy's laboratory and have reported the results in a meeting of the American Nuclear Society. Some similar (but different configuration) low-energy nuclear reactions have been accomplished and fully reported by Professor George Miley, editor of Fusion Technology, the International Journal of the American Nuclear Society. This work is now being extended to the on-site stabilization of high-level, radioactive, spent-fuel pellets by the Trenergy group. This work is being performed with private funds so that the intellectual property rights are preserved. Several patents are pending. 3. The newest work of Prof. Ruggero M. Santilli has shown that a special type of underwater arcing can produce a combustible gas from carbon-containing wastes (sewage and other types of contaminated water). This gas can be produced to provide two-and-one-half times as much energy out as energy input to create the gas. Patents are pending. The work is being supported and commercialized by Toups Technology Licensing, Inc. of Florida. 4. Dr. Randell Mills has shown that energy can be obtained by the collapsing of the hydrogen atom below its normal ground state. For further information, see www.blacklightpower.com which has been recently updated with a new article presented before the American Chemical Society earlier this month. Patents pending. 5. Kenneth Shoulders (see U.S. Patent 5,018,180) has shown how the use of high-density charge clusters can produce both excess thermal and direct electrical energy. Up to now the devices have been small (about one watt per device). Plans are made and private funding is being used to scale up these thermal and direct electrical output discoveries. According to the patent, the excess energy apparently comes from tapping the vacuum energy of space. These are the unemotional facts about new energy. There are several other developments that could be cited. However, these are the patented (and patent-pending) discoveries that are being commercialized. In all cases the research and developments has been done by private funds (except possibly for some work done by Prof. George Miley). The Department of Energy has yet to discover and officially announce these new-energy processes. Anyone who desires to condemn ALL new-energy projects as fraudulent is, of course, either vastly misinformed or working under someone else's agenda. The genuine, new-energy development program is vigorous, scientific, privately funded, patented, and (for the above items 3, 4, 5) is being commercialized. There is nothing that the new-energy detractors can do that will prevent the increasingly rapid commercialization of new-energy devices and systems. The most important aspect is the following: There is no need for government funding. Government funds only delay and add paperwork. The end result is that the Department of Energy will find it increasingly difficult to get funds for energy development when they have been so reluctant to fund anything but hot fusion for so many years. They have really failed in their assigned mission to develop new energy sources. Anyway, my friends, I thought you would like an update on the truth about new-energy developments.

[CTRL] Wirtshafter on DEA Birdseed Fiasco
-Caveat Lector- fwd: Don Wirtshafter, Ohio Hempery Inc Wednesday, October 13, 1999 10:33 AM For those of you who have not yet heard, the hundreds of businesses who have staked their future on industrial hemp are going through a crisis. The Drug Enforcement Administration has changed their interpretation of the Controlled Substances Act to include many hemp products, especially those made of the nutritious seeds. Kenex, Inc., the most established Canadian producer had a truck of birdseed seized at the border and has been ordered to recall 17 loads that were already shipped to the United States. Many businesses, including my own, have received a Summons from U.S. Customs ordering us to disclose all of our imports of hemp. According to the DEAs press release of October 6, 1999: "Recently, DEA and other federal agencies have become aware that sterilized cannabis seed has been imported into the United States for use in food products for human consumption. Furthermore, some of that seed, and products made from the seed, may be contaminated with THC. Under federal law, THC is a schedule I controlled substance. Therefore, any product containing any amount of THC can only be imported into the United States by a company that is appropriately registered with DEA." Arguments aside that organic THC is not Schedule I or that it takes years to get a Schedule I license, the blockade at the border threatens everything the hempsters have been working for, our movement, our industry and our livelihoods. The following is a letter that I wrote to members of the Hemp Industries Association. http://www.thehia.org I thought it appropriate to post to this list with this introduction. --- I made some progress in Washington, D.C. the week of October 4-8. My original purpose was to attend the CATO Institutes Beyond the Drug War Seminar with such notables as free thinking Governor Gary Johnson of New Mexico and the closed minded prohibitionist Former Attorney General of California, Dan Lungren. I also got invited to attend a private dinner with Gov. Johnson organized by the Association of Drug Reform Organizations. These events gave me an opportunity to discuss the present situation in the hemp industry with the movers and shakers of the drug reform movement. Lots of help was promised to us by these leaders. I was also able line up some of the professional help we need to oppose a report on the "Hazards of THC" that is scheduled to be issued in draft form by Health Canada any day now. I used my presence in Washington to try to spark some movement in the logjam that Kenex and the industry faces. I spent a morning discussing the situation with Bruce Schwartz and Jeff Klein, the Washington-based attorneys for Kenex. We agreed on most aspects of the case except two. They insisted that the debate be over birdseed as that was something that a court could easily understand. I was much more into defending the foods aspect of the case and pressed the need for resolve of the issue before the upcoming Natural Products Expo. They disagreed with my characterization that this case was about the DEA protecting the urine testing industry and its invasion on individual privacy. The lawyers insisted that the public debate be restricted to birdseed. I also met with Ned Daly, Leda Huta and John Richard of Ralph Naders organization to discuss the implications of the recent actions on our outstanding petition for rescheduling industrial hemp with the DEA and the Department of Agriculture. My best approach was through my local congressman, Ted Strickland, a very competent, caring Democrat. Ted Strickand, a licensed psychologist, was extremely busy with the last minute compromises in the health care bill. He had little time to say anything but "hello" as passed me over to his Legislative Assistant, Brandy Tomhave. Brandy, a former public defender now working full-time on Cong. Stricklands staff, deserves a letter of thanks from all hempsters for her timely intervention into our case. Brandy took the time to listen to the situation and then went to work calling the congressional liaisons from U.S. Customs and the DEA. Predictably, the DEA deferred responsibility for the blockade at the border. They blamed it on Customs and said there was no change of policy in the DEA. Armed with the DEAs own press release from the previous week acknowledging a change in interpretation of the Controlled Substances Act to include legal hemp products, Brandy did not accept that for an answer and pressed for a real response from the DEA liaison. Customs was more cooperative and promised her an answer as quickly as possible. Brandy then asked me to stay another day so she could arrange appointments for me with the responsible agencies. The next morning, Thursday, October 7th, Brandy again made calls to the various agencies. Eventually we got good news from the congressional liaison at U.S. Customs. She said the DEA had relented and agreed

To a terrorist, everything is perfect. High ranking dignitaries from around the world, the busiest time of the year for airports and travel, a perfect set up for people from countries around the would to bring home a virus released in Seattle. Officials have stepped up their training for epidemiologist, nurses, doctors, volunteers, emergency personal, i.e. police, fire, red cross, and other assorted government agency's. It was quoted from an source close to the case It could be either a anthrax type disaster which would be immediate and at the scene, or even worse, a virus that is release (in deadly silence) in which people from all over the world have gathered in one place (Seattle) exposed and then take the virus home with them. I think there is no coincidence related to the Urgent funding presented by president Bill Clinton for Bio-Terroism and the immediate funding for a Level 4 biotech engineering plant near New York. This is an extremely fluid story. Stay tuned for more breaking news on this issue. For now, please visit the CDC web site for information on biological agents. CDC Web Site: http://www.cdc.gov/health/diseases.htm Protesters From Around World To Flock To Seattle Trade Summit...10/13/99 Duncan Campbell in Los Angeles and John Vidal It is the worst nightmare of US conservatives. Hundreds of protest groups, tens of thousands of political activists from all over the world, plus Fidel Castro and the Mexican Zapatista revolutionaries, will gather in Seattle next month for the biggest protest against global capitalism ever held. The demonstrations during the summit meeting of the World Trade Organisation from November 30 to December 3 are being labelled the apocalypse, and the federal authorities are nervously considering how to defuse the tension at an event the world will be watching. It will be a historic confrontation between corporate rule and civil society, said Mike Dolan, field director of Global Trade Watch. Every day new groups, ranging from mainstream US trade union federationssuch as the AFL-CIO to the People of Colour Against Aids Network and radical Christian organisations, register their intention to join the activities at the edge of the stage where the world's most powerful decision-makers will meet. Preliminary demonstrations offering a taste of what will happen next month have been taking place this week in Seattle. About 5,000 delegates from 150 countries will attend the official event. President Bill Clinton will represent the US and Bill Gates of Microsoft and Phil Condit of Boeing are heading the host city's delegation. They will be discussing - although many of the decisions will already have been made - the further liberalisation of trade, the cutting of tariffs and subsidies, the introduction of GM foods, and the patenting of nature, to open the global market to greater investment. People with grievances ranging from the sweatshop workers of Mexico to the small farmers of India see it as their last chance this century to register their dismay at the globalisation of the economy, which they claim has already had a disastrous impact on the economies of weaker countries. The WTO believes it has been singled out unfairly. In the absence of global conflict between 'isms', some people have chosen to focus their fury on globalism, said Michael Moore, the organisation's head. British environmental activists, who are considered some of the most experienced in the world, have been helping to train some of the American groups. In the past few weeks representatives from Reclaim the Streets, which was involved in organising the street parties and Stop the City protests in London that ended in riots, have been holding workshops about non-violent direct action and mass demonstrations.

[CTRL] Alert on WTO Seattle, from India
-Caveat Lector- From: ncas [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: NCAS Campaign Alert on WTO Seattle Round of Trade Negotiations Date: Wednesday, October 13, 1999 1:03 PM Dear Friends: The trade ministries from 135 countries will meet throughout December 1999 at Seattle for wide-ranging talks related the World Trade Organisation (WTO). The Seattle Round of Trade Negotiations will affect the people of the South since the outcome seek to influence most international economic transactions in the coming years. If the proposals of the North particularly the USA are adopted the members of WTO will be obliged to change their national and domestic policies and laws. The WTO since its inception is busy rewriting the constitutions of most countries and undermining parliaments and democracy in the interest of promoting indiscriminate free made. To counter this process building up peoples resistance vital. In this context, some of us took the initiative of bringing out a statement of concern calling the Government of India not to succumb to the pressures of the North. As a part of our initiative towards campaign support, we are sending this statement of concerns, to you to be widely circulated and to get signatures to be then sent to the Ministry of Commerce, at the following address: Ministry of Commerce Udyog Bhawan NEW DELHI 110 011 Phone : 011-3015299 / 3016917 E-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] We would be grateful if you send us a copy of the signed memorandum to NCAS. Hope you will collaborate in this effort. Looking forward to hearing from you. In Solidarity, John Samuel NCAS Team. === A STATEMENT OF CONCERN: BEWARE OF THE SNARE AT SEATTLE The World Trade Organisation (WTO) that seeks to regulate principally all world trade and to an (increasing) extent all international economic relations, is poised for a new turn. Trade ministers from 135 countries will meet through out December 1999 at Seattle, Washington, USA for wide ranging talks related to the WTO. The Seattle Round or Millennium Round of trade negotiations is crucial, particularly for the countries and peoples of the South the outcome seeks to influence most international economic transactions in the coming years. If the proposals of the developed countries, particularly the USA, are adopted the member countries of WTO will be obliged to change their national, domestic policies and laws. Ostensibly designed to create a uniform global investment and economic climate this measure will mean the further erosion of economic sovereignty of the development countries, including India. The proposed agenda of the Seattle Round leaves no room for doubt that the economics of the developing countries face a new attack in the new millennium. The Experience So Far: We the Losers The WTO with super sovereign judicial power has been a decisive step in the globalisation of capitalist economy. The experience of the Indian people as regards WTO over the past five year is not particularly pleasant. It had promised to raise standards of living and ensure full employment, to ensure steady growth in real income and effective demand; optimal utilisation of world resources; guarantee of a share for the developing and the least developed countries in international trade. None of these promises have so far been fulfilled, nor are there any indications that any progress has been towards these goals. On the contrary the trend is that the progress towards this goal has been thwarted by the discriminatory policies followed by several developed countries to block exports from the developing countries through anti-dumping and other related measures. Despite the ballads sung by the bards of globalisation it is seen that the imports of India have increased far more than the exports between 1994-95 to 1997-98 and the balance of payments position has worsened. The ratio of exports to imports has deteriorated. There has been no increase in the countrys share of world exports; compared to 1980 the percentage has, in fact, declined. The foreign investment flows (FDIs) have increased but mainly in the portfolio (shares and stocks) sectors. The outflows towards fees for technical know-how, royalties and dividends have also registered marked increase. The net in-flow of capital is not spectacular Agriculture is perhaps the worst sufferer. The only gain has been in the export of rice. All other commodities have suffered. The link with global market has, in fact, introduced an unprecedented vulnerability in Indian agriculture. Farmers chasing the mirage of cash crops and (direct or indirect) exports have faced ruination; a number of them committed suicide last year. The component of imports has increased and with it dependence on multinational corporations. The genetically modified terminator seeds and other similar products have pushed the farmers into a servitude of the large corporations. The Millennium

I understand that U.S. Customs, (at your agencys insistence), is demanding Kenex recall earlier shipments sent to its U.S. customers or face punitive fines. I ask you to reverse your action immediately and cease all efforts to obtain Kenex prior shipments. Unless you are purposefully working to destroy the industrial hemp-based food market, this demand to Kenex to recall prior hempseed shipments makes no sense. For example, I and many others at the Hawaii State Capitol have already consumed hemp granola bars which contained Kenex hempseeds. Obviously, it would be impossible for Kenex to reclaim those products or others which entered the stream of commerce and have been used or consumed. It appears to me that the seizure of hempseeds, recall of prior shipments and the threat of excessive fines are intended to intimidate Kenex. I find this action by federal officials to be unwarranted and excessive. Until some common sense can be brought to this matter, I ask you to reverse your product recall demand to U.S. Customs and to cease any and all punitive actions against Kenex. Please respond to me without delay. Sincerely, Cynthia H. Thielen. Assistant Minority Floor Leader Contact: "Rep.

Senator Al "Whore" Sr. Crime/Corruption Opinion Keywords: GORE HAMMER Source: The Hoffmann Wire Published: ? Author: Michael A. Hoffman II Posted on 10/11/1999 19:12:09 PDT by archiopterix by--Michael A. Hoffman II [Hoffman is a former reporter for the American Contemporary Radio Division of ABC News and the New York bureau of the Associated Press] The eulogies, encomiums and laurel wreaths have all been bestowed upon the carcass of one of America's most despicable turncoats, the late Al Gore Sr, father of the Vice-President, R.I.H (Rot in Hell). The American media, true to form, suppressed the veritable Niagara of documentation on former Sen. Gore Sr.'s Communist service, corruption and the fact that since the 1950s he had been bought and paid for by the son of the founder of the Communist Party USA, []financier Armand Hammer. All of that was air-brushed out of the insipid greeting card obituaries for Gore which were issued by our "tough, investigative" and may I add, pro-Communist news media. Here are additional facts: Hammer owned Al Gore Senior lock, stock and whiskey barrel. Hammer kept Senator Gore Sr., as he liked to say, "in my back-pocket." When he said this, Hammer would touch his wallet and chuckle. Throughout virtually the whole of his political career , until 1990 when Hammer died at age 92, Al Gore Senior and the Gore family depended on bribes, kick-backs and "salaries" from Hammer. Hammer exploited his outright ownership of Gore Senior's political career as Congressman and later Senator and even became part of the Gores' intimate family life. Gore Sr.'s Sugar-Daddy Hammer was an agent and accomplice of every Soviet leader from 1917 onward, from Lenin to Gorbachev. Hammer made his first millions in the 1920s, initially through the operation --with slave labor --of a Soviet asbestos mine, in the shafts of which the bodies of the murdered Imperial family of the Czar had been dumped. In the early 1920s Hammer laundered money for Lenin and sold looted Russian art treasures in partnership with Mikoyan, to enrich himself and the Bolshevik regime. In 1931 Hammer established a banking operation in Paris specifically to provide foreign exchange funds for Stalin. Meanwhile, Hammer bribed and suborned elected officials at all levels of American life, from mayors to presidents. Hammer first took control of Gore Sr. in the early 1950s when he was a struggling hick Congressman, putting him on the payroll of a cattle-breeding business which Hammer owned, thereby funneling Gore Sr. large sums. In return for the cattle money, Gore and other powerful legislators also feeding at the Hammer trough, suppressed an FBI investigation into Hammer's Communist espionage. Later Gore Sr. defended Hammer on the floor of the Senate against allegations of bribery in obtaining government contracts (the allegations were true). Vice-President Al Gore Junior's political career was launched and sponsored as a wholly owned subsidiary of Armand Hammer, from Gore's initial success as a politician until just two years before he assumed the vice-presidency in 1992. In the 1960s, as chairman of the powerful Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Gore Sr. helped broker Hammer's lucrative oil deal with Libya, upon which Hammer's Occidental Petroleum Corporation would fatten handsomely. After he was defeated in his last senate election contest, Gore Sr. was made a director of Hammer's Island Creek Coal corp. at an annual "salary" of one-half million dollars. In the 1980s Gore's "salary" rose to $750,000. Most of the Left in America is convinced that a mighty McCarthyite anti-Communist apparatus was deeply entrenched in the U.S. government, only releasing its grip during the administration of Jimmy Carter. Nothing could be further from the truth. Almost all of the redoubtable "Commie fighters" from J. Edgar Hoover to Richard M. Nixon were engaged in an elaborate charade of anti-Communism, when in actuality they represented the government which had financed, nurtured and strengthened Communism and, with the defeat of Germany, then declared the Communists "The Enemy." By this ruse, the military-industrial complex in the U.S., led by such huge multi-national corporations as General Electric, was able to reap profits beyond the dreams of avarice, from this staged enmity. A case in point is Nixon. The "Commie-fighter" needed deep pockets to wage his Watergate wars. Armand
[CTRL] Fw: America's Misguided Drug War
-Caveat Lector- Reprint, The Christian Science Monitor, March 8, 1999 -Original Message- Date: Saturday, October 09, 1999 10:00 AM Subject: America's Misguided Drug War AMERICA'S MISGUIDED DRUG WAR Attacking suppliers of drugs without addressing the demand guarantees drug sales will continue. By Mike Tidwell No credible evidence exists showing that stringent enforcement of US narcotics laws actually reduces drug use in this country. Indeed, the opposite seems true: Law-enforcement efforts actually promote illicit drug use. That's certainly my observation after 10 years working with homeless drug addicts in Washington, D.C. The endless police raids on crack houses, shooting galleries, and various open- air markets simply help push drugs block-by-block through the city, guaranteeing that every D.C. teenager will eventually have a full-blown market on his street corner. The problem is simple: Attacking supply without addressing demand guarantees that drug markets and drug sales will not cease. They simply move to another spot momentarily untargeted by police raids. Then they move again. This phenomenon exacerbates the epidemic, casting a wider net than would otherwise be cast, reeling into drugs youths who would otherwise stand a much better chance of staying drug- free. It's important to be very clear on this point: Our law-enforcement efforts actually help peddle drugs. Society has become a pusher. It's hard to conclude otherwise. Now, comes news that we'll soon get more of the same. The Clinton administration's annual antinarcotics budget, unveiled earlier this month, calls for roughly $12 billion in spending for law enforcement, interdiction and other efforts to attack narcotics supply. That's a 30-percent increase since 1996 and nearly a doubling of such funding over the past decade. This means more money for more cops and other resources to help facilitate the spread of crack, heroin, and marijuana through the streets of America's cities. Tragically, as in past years, funding to reduce drug demand constitutes barely a third of the proposed federal narcotics budget. This, while local spending for treatment in many US cities continues to drop. Washington's treatment system is in shambles. Between 1993 and 1998, the city's treatment budget fell from $31.3 million to $19.7 million - a 37-percent drop. Drug offenders - sentenced to treatment by judges - languish in prison for months for lack of a bed, and about 1,200 people are on the city's waiting list for methadone maintenance. Across the United States, treatment programs can accommodate only about 50 percent of hard-core users. This, despite the fact that treatment is widely acknowledged to be much cheaper than narcotics enforcement and interdiction efforts. For example, for the cost of a single customs department drug surveillance plane - a reported $47 million - the District could treat all those on its waiting list and more. But instead of treating drug addiction as a public health issue, we continue to criminalize it with endless street raids, sending hundreds of thousands of nonviolent drug offenders to prison. And incarceration is yet another way our policies actually promote drug use. Almost half of all inmates at D.C.'s Lorton prison are nonviolent drug offenders, many of them sentenced under draconian federal laws requiring a mandatory minimum of five years in jail for possessing as little as 5 grams of crack - the weight of two pennies. Any offender who isn't chronically deviant and prone to long-term drug use before incarceration has his chances ratcheted up significantly during five years' exposure to the violence and dysfunctions of prison culture. It's time to end what amounts to state sponsorship of drug use in our cities. Let's increase and improve treatment and drug education programs as a first step toward gradual decriminalization and possible legalization. Holland, to cite an example, has seen no significant increase in marijuana use since legalizing coffee house consumption more than 20 years ago. Among young adolescents, drug use in Holland is actually lower than in the US. Even with its risks and challenges, legalization seems to offer a better alternative to the mess we have now, where tax dollars and law-enforcement techniques police officers use actually encourage young people - however inadvertently - to use drugs and take that first fateful step toward addiction.

-Caveat Lector- Subject: New books Date: Sunday, October 10, 1999 9:33 AM From: http://www.atomicbooks.com BOOKS Dark Alliance: The Cia, the Contras, and the Crack Cocaine Explosion by Gary Webb, Maxine Waters Dark Alliance shows how the L.A. crack market flourished through a breathtaking combination of government negligence, greed, and criminal conduct. In its final chapters, Dark Alliance also reveals Gary Webb's personal account of the behind-the-scenes conflict that led to his newspaper's repudiation of its own groundbreaking series. The career-damning allegations leveled at Webb have now been joined by glowing reviews of the first edition of Dark Alliance, and the core findings of this courageous investigative reporter's work - once fiercely denied - are now matters of public record. This revised and updated edition of Dark Alliance adds yet another layer of damning evidence culled from hundreds of newly declassified CIA cables, and FBI and DEA reports, none of which were available at the time of the first edition. Among other revelations, these long-secret documents expose how the CIA and the NSC worked with dozens of drug dealers and their companies to secretly fund right-wing Latin American guerrillas; the decade-long U.S. government coverup of the CIA-Contra drug trafficking and illegal gun-running network; one DEA agent's investigation into allegations of drug trafficking at a military airbase in El Salvador, and how the CIA and State Department shut it down; and how the DEA undermined a criminal investigation by the FBI in order to shield a massive L.A. drug ring and protect the drug ring's boss from arrest and exposure.

The Gemstone File consists of hundreds of letters handwritten in many segments over a number of years by Bruce Roberts, the creator of synthetic rubies. Hughes Aircraft stole Roberts' rubies in 1960 for use in laser weapons research. His subsequent investigation of the theft inspired Roberts to write the Gemstone letters, tracking the secret history of the international mob and industrial espionage, and their role in political intrigue. In 1975, a 24-page chronology known as the Skeleton Key to The Gemstone File began to circulate and has now become a legendary classic of conspiracy literature. Aristotle Onassis Versus Howard Hughes: Gemstone tells the story of internecine warfare between Aristotle Onassis and Howard Hughes. According to the Gemstone, Onassis and the International Mafia kidnapped and held Hughes as a drugged-up prisoner for ten years. As sole controller of Hughes Aircraft and related industries, the Mafia could exploit Hughes' empire without a company board meeting ever taking place. Conspiracy Around The World: The Gemstone File became the prelude to a down-under counterpart, the Kiwi Gemstone, detailing secret power machinations from the 1980s-the Nugan Hand bank scandal, Iran-contra, BCCI-to the present, providing an essential outline of events surrounding the famous Octopus research of martyred writer Danny Casolaro. Inside The Gemstone File also includes for first time previously unseen Gemstone artifacts, including an actual Bruce Roberts letter. It also provides commentary on Gemstone by such noted researchers as Robin Ramsay and Jim Hougan, a new a essay on connections to the James Bond movies by popular author David Hatcher Childress, plus interviews, Onassis and Hughes bios, and a chapter on the mysterious deaths of conspiracy researchers. Assembled by Kenn Thomas, the vaunted publisher of the conspiracy magazine Steamshovel Press, Inside the Gemstone File brings the reader closer than ever to the Gemstone intrigue, some of the wildest, most controversial material in the history of conspiracy.

Consider that nowhere throughout all this FEMA readiness activity, is the seemingly harried FEMA preparation, being extended or offered to the general population of tens of millions, in the same fashion. Nor are their "primary constituents" offering it to their millions of constituents. FEMA clearly states that: "The emergency management community may be facing a potential disruption scenario that it has not dealt with before: simultaneous disruptions in all 50 States and 6 Territories that may require Federal emergency declarations. In addition, we may have numerous weather-related major disaster declarations to address during this time frame." The glaring ellipsis of this fundamentally explosive data to the public, this one major factor, is beyond anything logical, is in fact gross and criminal negligence.

Special Agent Keith Tate, an investigator with the Long Beach branch of NASA's Office of Inspector General, has been calling Silicon Valley sources, including The Examiner, seeking information about a planned Tuesday meeting between research scientists and Silicon Valley high-tech executives. At that meeting, first reported by The Examiner, attendees, including scientists from the NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, will discuss propulsion technologies. "We're trying to determine if any proprietary information will be talked about at that meeting," said Tate. "We're very concerned about this." Staging the meeting will be the International Space Sciences Organization. Its founder is Joe Firmage, a 28-year-old, high-tech executive who made headlines late last year when he published a Web site and book in which he recounted his beliefs in space aliens. On the ISSO site, he claims to have been visited in his bedroom one night by such an alien. Firmage also has stated that some of the high technology of today was obtained from the legendary alien space craft crash at Roswell, N.M., in 1947. Firmage stepped down from his post as CEO of the giant Santa Clara-based USWeb Internet consulting firm following his revelations, due to shareholder concerns about his extraterrestrial pursuits. ISSO spokesman Tony Young had no comment on the NASA probe. Over the last several years, NASA has been researching an array of exotic propulsion technologies through a small program dubbed Breakthrough Propulsion Physics. Some of these techniques thumb their noses at Albert Einstein's theory of relativity, which postulates that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light - 186,00 miles per second. These include using technologies familiar to science fiction fans: worm holes and warp drives. Firmage, according to his Web site, believes "there is stunningly good evidence that UFOs are real starships." He writes that "whatever did or did not happen at Roswell in 1947 will ultimately prove to be a rounding error when the implications of this phenomenon become widely known." 1999 San Francisco Examiner PageB 1

Also: See page 439 of the 8th Edition of my book in which I describe how Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott [in a quote from The Boston Globe] was "FIGHTING SOFT MONEY REFORM." His actions reveal that he and others WANT POWER BROKER MONEY and the HELL with You the People! Now look again at what John McCain has told you in the past week: "ALL OF US HAVE BEEN CORRUPTED BY THE PROCESS WHERE BIG MONEY AND BIG INFLUENCE...HAS BOUGHT INFLUENCE!" [Emphasis added.] Look at my life. It is WELL DOCUMENTED. I have FOUGHT LIKE A TIGER FOR YOU THE PEOPLE. Question: As we go into the New Millennium, do you want MORE OF THE SAME FOR YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN? If you do - then Vote the Pawns for the Power Brokers into office again in 2000. And if you want an HONEST CHANGE, then choose someone who has PROVEN BY HIS/HER LIFE'S WORK THAT HE/SHE FIGHTS FOR YOU THE PEOPLE AND THAT SUCH LIFE'S WORK PROVES THAT HE/SHE IS INTELLIGENT, WISE, AND BRAVE. I honestly believe that God has so made, moulded, and taught me to be that Person. See my internet site and read my fundamental book. All people who are claiming that they want a Third Party of honesty, integrity, and wisdom --- come to the Phoenix area and talk with me. POWER TO THE PEOPLE!

[CTRL] Proposal to Abolition 2000
-Caveat Lector- Please study this proposal from Thomas who has been maintaining the antinuclear vigil across from the White House since 1981 and whose dedication to this cause warrants careful consideration of his proposal below. From: Peace through Reason [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Proposal to Abolition 2000 Date: Friday, October 08, 1999 1:06 AM David- Last night I went on the congressional website and checked out Markey's and Woolsey's anti-nuclear measures presently pending in the House. I discovered that they are both resolutions =-= not bills. This is very disappointing, because, unlike a bill, which causes change by creating law, a resolution has no binding effect on anything ... a resolution is little more than a feel good measure. So I sent the following to Ellen to take to the conference. Not sure, but I think you may have read this before, in one of its earlier incarnations. Thomas PROPOSAL TO BUILD A GRASSROOTS MOVEMENT TO PRESSURE THE U.S. POLITICAL SYSTEM FOR NUCLEAR WEAPONS ABOLITION October, 1999 In order to abolish nuclear weapons before the end of the century, or, for that matter, at any time in the future, it is essential to build a strong U.S. abolition campaign. We hope this proposal will be considered during evaluation and development of specific strategies and activities to create a broadly inclusive campaign that will inject denuclearization and the elimination of nuclear weapons into the political mainstream. BACKGROUND FACTS: The United States (1) was first to research, produce, test, and deploy nuclear weapons, and first to use them against human targets, (2) has led the world in the development and production of innovative nuclear weapons and delivery systems throughout the nuclear age, and (3) notwithstanding the NPT and CTBT, continues to test, develop, and produce new weapons systems. No wonder the U.N. resolutions for a nuclear weapons abolition convention are getting nowhere fast. We believe that as long as the nuclear weapons policy of the United States remains unchanged, it is highly unlikely that anyone is going to take suggestions for international abolition seriously. Before most of the world was snickering at the blatant NTP/CTBT/Subcritical hypocrisy of the United States. Of course, this has always been a major obstacle to using the NPT or CTBT as tools for securing an international convention on nuclear weapons. Today international credibility of these treaties is even more suspect. At the very moment that this proposal is being written, the US Senate is debating ratification of the CTBT. Opponents of the treaty, confident that they can kill the measure, are pressing for a ratification vote. In the meantime the US is conducting tests of anti-ballistic missle systems, imperiling both the ABM and SALT treaties. If we are to be practical, we must accept the fact that neither treaties nor mere resolutions alone will not necesarily turn this problem around. Zia Mian alluded to this fact in his address to the NPT Preparatory Committee at the U.N.: "We believe it is time for these opinions to be acted upon. Words are cheap. It is the responsibility of all the states who have supported these resolutions in the General Assembly and the Conference on Disarmament to force negotiations upon those who will not negotiate. Otherwise they are doing no more than standing on the sidelines wringing their hands, they are providing cover for those countries who have no intention of negotiating." We must question the direction of those dedicated to interjecting the elimination of nuclear weapons into the political mainstream. Presently the entire political movement within the United States can be summed up in two proposed House Resolutions, H. Res. 74, proposed by Congressman Markey, and H. Res. 82, proposed by Congresswoman Woolsey. Although both H. Res. 74 and 82 are positive expressions. As resolutions, however, even if passed by Congress, they would have very little effect toward denuclearization. PROPOSED STRATEGY FOR MAJOR POLITICAL CHANGE WITHIN THE UNITED STATES Any meaningful strategy must necessarily go beyond educating, outreaching, conferencing and mere talk in general. A successful strategy must be based on promoting some tangible, workable vehicle that is actually capable of carrying an abolition movement to its desired culmination. A strong foundation for exerting decisive political pressure on the United States to abolish nuclear weapons was laid by U.S. Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton in 1994, when she introduced the Nuclear Disarmament and Economic Conversion Act (H.R. 2545) to the U.S. House of Representatives. In essence, the bill would mandate that the U.S. government to eliminate its' nuclear weapons if all other

Penn [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Recipient List Suppressed:; Recipient List Suppressed:; Subject: Bird Brained Date: Friday, October 08, 1999 12:47 PM Hightower commentary Date: Fri, 8 Oct 1999 From: John Roulac [EMAIL PROTECTED] DRUG WAR STUPIDITY America's drug war is so stupid that if you pay close attention to just how stupid it is . . . it'll drive you to use drugs. How stupid is it? Ask Jean Laprise, a Canadian farmer. He raises industrial hemp, which is a cousin of marijuana, though hemp can't make you high because it contains so little of THC, the psychoactive ingredient that gives marijuana its oomph. Instead, hemp is used to make an astonishing array of products-from paper to building materials, from food to biodegradable plastic, from beer to birdseed. Birdseed is what got Laprise in trouble with America's Drug Enforcement Agency, which gives new meaning to the term bird brained. He shipped to a U.S. customer a 20-ton load of birdseed that included hemp seed in the mix. The hemp seed is high in nothing but protein and is good for birds and people, but the DEA got wind of Laprise's shipment and had the whole load impounded, saying it contained a trace of the dreaded THC. Let me give you three numbers. Marijuana must have at least 4 percent THC to get anyone high. Industrial hemp is only 1 percent THC, so you can't get high on it. Laprise's birdseed mix tested out with a THC content of 0.0014-one fourteen-thousandths of a percent. Even a bird couldn't get a buzz on that. To compound this raw stupidity, the DEA demanded that Laprise recall 17 loads of hemp-based products he had earlier shipped to the U.S. Associated Press reports that this recall included hemp seed used by Nutiva, a California company that makes granola bars. As a result, Nutiva had to suspend production, forcing a layoff at the company. Also, a wholesaler was about to pick up Nutiva's bar for national distribution, but backed out of the deal after it learned that the DEA was messing with the company. This is Jim Hightower saying . . . What the hell is the DEA smoking? Sources: "Bird seeds made from hemp impounded" by Catherine Tsai. Associated Press: October 5, 1999.

[CTRL] Action Alerts 4 time-critical alerts
-Caveat Lector- From: marylia [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 4 time-critical alerts Date: Friday, October 08, 1999 8:21 PM Action Alerts Dear Tri-Valley CAREs members and friends: Here are four extremely important and time-critical issues. Your action today can make a difference. If each of you reading this takes a few minutes to complete one or more of the actions below -- collectively we will create a huge chorus of voices that will be heard. Please do your part. And, if you want further information on any issue, just call our office at (925) 443-7148. 1. TELL THE SENATE: RATIFY THE COMPREHENSIVE TEST BAN TREATY AND CUT NEXT YEAR'S FUNDING FOR "STOCKPILE STEWARDSHIP" The full U.S. Senate is scheduled to vote on the CTBT on Tuesday, Oct. 12. President Clinton signed the CTBT on Sept. 24, 1996 but it has yet to be ratified by the Senate. That ratification vote will take place Oct. 12. Forty four nations with nuclear capability must sign and ratify the treaty before it can fully enter into force globally. The U.S. is one of those 44 countries. What message does it send the world if we fail to ratify the treaty? Tri-Valley CAREs has worked to end nuclear weapons testing since the group was founded in 1983. Numerous national polls show overwhelming public support for ending nuclear testing. Most recently, polls conducted by the Mellman Group and Wirthlin Worldwide showed that 82% of the American people want the CTBT ratified. Ratifying the CTBT and stopping so-called "Stockpile Stewardship" are two key parts of truly ending all nuclear testing. Moreover, these two parts are related in many ways. For example, other nations have complained that the "Stockpile Stewardship" program allows the U.S. to continue designing nuclear weapons, and that it impairs global acceptance of the test ban. ACTION: One phone call to each of your U.S. Senators today can help ratify the CTBT and cut next year's funding for "Stockpile Stewardship." Call the Congressional switchboard at (202) 224-3121. Our California Senators, Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer, are on record supporting the CTBT. Ask them to work hard on the floor of the Senate to ensure its ratification. Neither Senator has yet been willing to cut funding for "Stockpile Stewardship." Tell them you are disappointed, and that you expect them to cut its budget in the future. 2. TELL THE SENATE: STOP BAD NUCLEAR WASTE POLICY The U.S. Senate is poised to vote on bill (S1287) called the Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1999. This bill takes the nation's already shortsighted approach to nuclear waste and makes it worse. S1287 would allow the nuclear industry to ship "high-level" nuclear waste to Yucca Mountain in Nevada or to another, unnamed "temporary" site before any final decision is made regarding the permanent storage of radioactive waste. S1287 could mean that waste from 77 sites would move through 43 states, and then, at least potentially, move again when a final determination about a waste site is made. S1287 would also prevent the Environmental Protection Agency from setting "radiation safety standards"-- specifying that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) would set the standards. Then, S1287 disallows even the NRC from setting any standards (even weak ones) regarding release limits for the nuclear waste or to specifically protect groundwater resources around the dump site. S1287 also sets up a special "Office of Spent Nuclear Fuel Research" to conduct RD on plutonium reprocessing technologies. This flies in the face of U.S. nuclear nonproliferation goals. ACTION: One phone call to your Senator can help stop this waste bill. Call (202) 224-3121. Tell your Senator S1287 has too many bad ideas. Tell him/her that we need a nuclear waste policy that is scientifically sound and has public input and credibility. Tell your Sen. to vote against this bail out for the nuclear industry. 3. TELL THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES: SAVE THE SUPERFUND CLEANUP LAW Superfund is a federal law mandating cleanup of many heavily contaminated toxic and radioactive waste sites; there are over 1,200 Superfund cleanup sites in the nation, including the Livermore Lab's main site and site 300 high explosives testing range. The U.S. House of Representatives is considering a bill (HR1300) that will weaken the Superfund law. The vote on HR 1300 may come as early as mid-October. HR1300 would change the liability provision in the current Superfund law (called "joint and several liability") in such a way it could let polluters off the hook. Further, HR1300 relaxes the standard for what is deemed clean. This could result in federal Superfund cleanup sites being called "finished," even though hazardous pollutants remain in the soil and water in violation of state standards. ACTION: One phone call to your Congressional Representative can help save Superfund. Call the Congressional switchboard at (202) 224-3121. Ask your Rep. to

Kahnawake of Mohawk Territory. 5 Oct. 99. One week ago the Supreme Court of Canada affirmed that according to a 1760 treaty Indigenous People have a right to fish without restriction any time of the year. Donald Marshall, a Mikmaq, was arrested for catching eel out of season. He took it to the Supreme Court and won. Since this favourable ruling for the Indians hundreds of non-native fishermen have broken over 3,500 traps belonging to the Mikmaq fishermen from Burnt Church, a native territory in New Brusnwick on the Miramichi River. They vandalized three plants suspected of processing native-caught lobster. Today they burnt a native sacred site. So far the police have laid no charges nor stopped these mobs from attacking the Indians and destroying and sabotaging Indian property. URGENT. The Mikmaq and Maliseet People need your help. At an all chiefs conference yesterday the chiefs vowed to continue to exercise their rights and support the Warrior Society. They need help physically, politically and financially. The government is presently standing back allowing the police to watch as non-natives attack Indian people and damage their property. The question is why is the government allowing the non-native civilians to attack and destroy without impunity. In the past if the tables were turned, you can be sure native people would have been arrested and given long prison sentences. Instead the mobs are allowed to rule, to desecrate Indian property, to burn native boats, to destroy lobster traps and to beat up native people. The Mikmaq and Maliseet Nations are asking supporters to contact the people listed below immediately and help them, to go to Canadian Embassies all over the world and question these tactics of using civilians against the native. So this is the new tactic of the government of not sending in the army? People are being ask to go to international organizations to put pressure on Canada and to get whatever political support they can for the Mikmaq and Maliseet Nations. Remember, the native people have every right to fish. Because they do so they are be threatened. As well, they need more traps, fishing boats, fuel for their boats, communications equipment and other necessary supplies. They especially need people to go there to deter the potential for violence.

[CTRL] Jesse Ventura stirs it up
-Caveat Lector- Venturas Honesty Violates the Publics Demand for Hypocrisy - After Bill Clinton, Why is the Public Outraged at Jesse Ventura? By Mary Mostert, Analyst, Original Sources (www.originalsources) October 5, 1999 So far, the year 2000 presidential campaign has been pretty boring for most people. Candidates on both sides of the fence are walking very carefully through the changing mine fields of public opinion, saying as little as possible to try to make sure they offend no one. Today, in an apparent effort to wake up the electorate, the Cato Institute is sponsoring "a more mature debate, October 5, 1999. The Cato Institute "will host Beyond Prohibition: An Adult Approach to Drug Policies in the 21st Century. Gov. Gary Johnson of New Mexico, who has become a leading advocate for drug decriminalization, is among the speakers scheduled for this day long conference. The event will be broadcast live via the Cato Web site. The drug war has proven to be a costly failure. Drugs are as easy to obtain as ever. And yet, alternative drug policies are ignored by our political leaders." However, it appears that Reform Candidate Governor Jesse Ventura of Minnesota has upstaged the erudite Cato Institute's "mature debate" with some pithy comments on the same subject in a Playboy Magazine interview. In the process, Ventura has given both Republicans and Democrats a new target to shoot at. Friday's edition of the St. Paul/Minneapolis Pioneer Planet headlined the report of Ventura's Playboy Magazine interview with: "Outrage greets Ventura interview." It followed that with: "Governor says he has no plans to apologize." Patrick Sweeney, staff writer for the Pioneer Planet, wrote: "In a storm of angry reaction, state political leaders and many average citizens rebuked Gov. Jesse Ventura on Thursday for his remarks in a Playboy Magazine interview. Senate Majority Leader Roger Moe called on Ventura to apologize to Minnesotans for his comments about religion and sexual harassment, and the head of the state Republican Party said the governor should consider resigning." What did the governor say that brought about such a reaction? He said: * that organized religion is a ``sham and a crutch for weak-minded people.'' * that if he were reincarnated he would want to come back as a brassiere * that he has smoked marijuana and sees nothing wrong with that. He also said no one should be imprisoned for either prostitution or drug offenses. * that he did not condone, but could understand, the widespread sexual harassment that was reported at the Las Vegas convention of Navy aviators * that he has no plans to apologize to anyone for anything he said in the interview. ``I did the interview, and I said what I said in it,'' he said. ``If people don't understand what I meant, I'm not going to apologize for it In a news conference, Moe urged Ventura to apologize, and to do so in national television interviews he has scheduled next week with Barbara Walters and David Letterman. ``Use the opportunity, Governor, to get some good publicity for the state,'' Moe said. ``Don't talk about the things you talked about, because they don't reflect Minnesota values.'' Now, let's see if we can sort out Minnesota's concerns and its values. Basically they have a governor whom they voted for, who is saying that there is nothing at all wrong with what the majority of the Minnesota Congressional delegation voted on when the question was Bill Clinton's behavior in office. Ventura's statements merely validated what the Minnesota Congressional delegation has been supporting in the impeachment of Clinton. The seven Democrat-Farm-Labor members of Congress from Minnesota, of the ten member delegation, all voted against Articles of impeachment on Perjury Before Grand Jury and Obstruction of Justice, in spite of the overwhelming evidence of both perjury and obstruction of justice. The President of the United States has shown by his immoral conduct - illicit sex, adultery, lying (which he admitted), that he rejects religion - in spite of his occasional Bible thumping. We know he has smoked marijuana and the records show that Clinton's Arkansas was awash in Cocaine:" First Brother Roger Clinton and Arkansas political kingpin and Clinton Campaign contributor Dan Lasater both served time in prison for trafficking in cocaine. A banker and key Clinton backer, Lasater was pardoned by Gov. Clinton after serving a fraction of his sentence. Roger Clinton was arrested in the rotunda of the Arkansas State Capitol during Clinton's first term as governor. Many independent sources confirm that Governor Bill himself had "a nose like a vacuum cleaner" when it came to cocaine. So, Minnesota's values clearly have not been offended. The voters of Minnesota voted for a President who is a known drug user, liar and woman harasser, not once, but twice. On sexual harassment, the State of

Subject: Hemp-War Declared: Canada vs USA-(DEA) Date: Wednesday, October 06, 1999 3:09 PM THE OTTAWA CITIZEN Ottawa, Ontario October 5, 1999 KENEX SEED SEIZED AT U.S. BORDER Hemp grower plans to take battle to court By Jack Aubry A Canadian Goose couldnt get high on the stuff but 20 tons of Ontario birdseed has been confiscated at the Windsor-Detroit border crossing as part of the U.S. war on drugs. The truckload of bird feed, which is sterilized seeds processed from industrial hemp, has been sitting in a Detroit warehouse since early August after the U.S. Customs Service swooped down on it at the border. Its very silly. They are telling us that this a truck full of marijuana when in fact a bag couldnt get a buzz from the seed, said Jean Laprise from this Chatham-area farm on Monday. Laprise says instead of enforcing the law, the U.S. drug officials are making it up because American legislation clearly exempts sterilized hemp seed from its list of controlled substances. He estimates the value of the birdseed at $35,000 and says he is now being threatened with fines of about $500,000 if he doesnt recall already shipped products. Laprise, the owner of Kenex Ltd., is caught in what the New York Times calls one of the most bizarre episodes of Washingtons campaign to curb illicit drug use. Hemp and marijuana are different types of Cannabis sativa but the U.S. government rarely recognizes the distinctions when it comes to that particular plant species. It has been over a year since the Canadian government declared hemp a legitimate crop. The birdseed seizure is the first time the legislation change in Canada has run afoul of American drug laws. While smoking marijuana will lead to a noticeable high, smoking hemp will have no psychoactive effect. The psychoactive component of marijuana, known as THC for tetrahydrocannabinol, usually varies between five and 20 per cent of a leaf. The only mind-altering threat posed by the birdseed sitting in Detroit, which has a THC content of 0.0014 per cent, comes from trying to imagine how minuscule its psychoactive component is to its consumer. Fourteen parts per million THC would hardly make a bird chirp, let alone reach a higher altitude. Rogene Waite, a spokeswoman at the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency, said her countrys controlled substance act defines hemp as marijuana. She released a statement from the agency which said that U.S. agencies have become aware that sterilized cannabis seed has been imported in the U.S. for use in food products for human consumption. Furthermore, some of that seed, and products made from the seed, may be contaminated with THC. The agencys position is that any product containing any amount of THC can only be imported into the U.S. by a company that is appropriately registered with DEA. John Roulac, the president of Nutiva, a California company which has been supplied by Kenex, called the confiscation crazy. When there are real criminals running around, I guess we have to stay focused on people who are obeying the law, said Roulac. The reality is that they are allowing shipments of hemp from France and Germany right into the U.S. He termed the minute amount of THC found in 40,000 pounds of birdseed like an olive pit in a railroad car. Roulac says the publicity about the seizure has outraged Kenexs U.S. customers, who are buying its hemp seeds and fibres for food and beauty products. He says he has sold 100,000 hemp bars in the past five months and drug enforcement officers are trying to shut down the market. In California, this is being laughed at. Kenex is the largest, most successful hemp processor in Canada. They are about as far away as you can get from a drug dealer. I mean give me a break, said Roulac. He explained that the small amount of THC detected in the seed comes from unavoidable contact with leaves of the hemp plant. Lambton-Kent-Middlesex MP Rose-Marie Ur echoed Roulacs comments, calling Kenex a very above-board company. She said the U.S. officials were making a mountain out of a molehill and the confiscation is absolutely ridiculous. She supports the companys intentions to challenge in court under the North American Free Trade Agreement the DEAs interpretation of its drug laws.(END) (NEXT) THE LONDON FREE PRESS London, Ontario October 5, 1999 U.S. HALTS ONTARIO HEMP AT BORDER By John Miner The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency has delivered a body blow to Ontarios fledgling hemp industry, stopping a shipment of hemp products to the U.S. and ordering the processor to recall 17 other tractor-trailer loads.

[CTRL] Peltier Phone banking instructions for November Campaign
-Caveat Lector- http://members.xoom.com/freepeltier/index.html From: LPDC [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Phone banking instructions for November Campaign Date: Monday, October 04, 1999 10:33 AM Dear Peltier supporters, Below are the instructions for the telephone campaign for this November. It is written for the people who signed up to do phone banking however, even if you did not sign up please participate in this important effort anyway. If you are unable to organize a phone bank, but can do individual calling on your own, please do so--just follow the schedule as set forth below. Thank you. In Solidarity, The LPDC NATIONAL TELEPHONE CAMPAIGN FOR NOVEMBER 99 PELTIER FREEDOM MONTH Dear Friends: We are quickly approaching our November 1999 Leonard Peltier Freedom campaign in Washington DC. So far we are very pleased with the response and support that has been coming in nationwide. The national telephone drive is going to play a very important role in these efforts. Throughout the years, many of us have become disillusioned with making phone calls and writing letters. Many people think that this is a wasted effort, without any real impact. However, recent experiences have proved to the contrary. If we all act in a unified and organized way, these calls in fact are in fact a very powerful grassroots organizing tool. For example, if a few people call the White House comments line on a given day with diverse messages, there probably will not be much impact. However, if thirty people call on the same day with the same message, a note goes to President Clinton that the matter is of public interest. If we can get 100 calls going each day with the same messages, people really sit up and pay attention. After all, elected officials do need the vote of the people. We just need to remind them that we are here, and that there are many of us. We need people to organize local groups of about twenty people to call the White House comments line (and if people are willing, other numbers, as discussed below), once a week from November 1 through Thanksgiving. Try to get five friends together who are serious about helping you. They in turn are responsible for finding four friends to make the calls. Make sure everyone gets a copy of the basic fact summary about Leonards case. No one needs to know the details inside out, but people are more confident if they know a bit about the story, and it is a good way to do public education as well. Make sure they also receive these instructions, about who to call, and the most important points to mention. We have found that it helps to give everyone a reminder call the day before, and to tell them about anything new in the case, or about any changes or updates in how things are going. We will be sending e-mails and faxes to all the coordinators about new developments, how the hunger strikers are doing, what officials are saying, etc., etc. It is also IMMENSELY helpful to us all if your group can call you back and tell you how things went. What did the people at the White House comment line say, and how did they react? This helps us gage how much they are feeling the pressure. (In the beginning they will just sound bored or formal but later some of them begin to chat with the callers.) More importantly, every so often, a receptionist will talk a little about the case and even ask questions. This helps us find out what the other side is saying. So please e-mail us and give us feedback. Perhaps the most important part is helping everyone in the group understand how important their calls are. Not only do they have great political impact when tightly coordinated in this way, they also give huge support to the Freedom Fasters in Lafayette Park, and of course to Leonard himself. We are all part of one team. 1. WHEN DO WE CALL? We must, of course, organize our calls in a reasonable way. If 1,000 calls come in on Monday, and none of the rest of the week, it wont have the same consistency and impact. The schedule can of course be flexible, but we should try to keep things on a fairly even course. To make things easy, we have divided the caller groups up by region. As new people offer to do a calling session, they can simply start in on the day assigned to their region. If the day assigned to your area is impossible for you, go ahead and choose a different one. Let us know if you can. Once again, it is very helpful if each group coordinator can give their members a reminder call or e-mail the day before their calls. MONDAY CALLS: Northeast Region (North of Philadelphia) TUESDAY CALLS: Southeast Region (Philadelphia and south) WEDNESDAY CALLS: Central Region THRUSDAY CALLS: Northwest Region FRIDAY CALLS: Southwest Region 2. WHO DO WE CALL? The most important call is to the White House comments line, 202-456-. This should be the first call made. If people have time and are willing to make a second call,
[CTRL] Space Based Weapons and White House Aims To Save Test Ban
-Caveat Lector- Thanks Carol for this very important message regarding the redirection of space based weapons research and development funding to peaceful purposes. I agree with your sentiments of course, but wish to point out that space based weapons apparently already exist as photographed from the space shuttle in approx 1992 where live video feed since shown on network television shows what analysts describe as the "rail gun" or "brilliant pebbles" non-exploding high-speed projectiles being shot at UFO's in Earth's atmosphere which easily dodged these projectiles accelerated on a magnetic track reportedly powered by the military usurped n-Machine of Bruce DePalma http://www.depalma.pair.com .I do not have url reference to the NASA video feed in question but perhaps someone on a list this post reaches will by now have such reference. The date can be precisely determined because after this incident NASA changed from live to delayed video feed on all space shuttle missions to prevent such data from being repeated publicly. Since the 1985 Congressional testimony of Dr. Yonas, chief scientist of SDI "Star Wars" program where he requested funding for research and development of several SDI "critical technologies" including the "homopolar generator" (Michael Faraday's name for the rediscovered and shown overunity n-Machine), space based weapons have reportedly been covertly developed and deployed. This pity is that the new-energy technologies involved are the antidote to ending the environmental poisoning of nuclear and fossil fuel power technologies but these new-energy devices are being restricted to military use by our government and its secrecy order reproduced on page 163-4 of Jeane Manning's book about these technologies called The Coming Energy Revolution. (see exceprt below) For some references to these new technologies see http://www.padrak.com/ine and http://www.infinite-energy.com including the available LENT devices under development to neutralize radioactive materials.

In June, Clinton plans to announce his approval of DEPLOYMENT! The game goes on. However, there is a way to end this madness once and for all! All we have to do is to eliminate the space-based weapons RD, and take the money and put it into expanding a non-weapons civilian, commercial and military space program. Yes, military space program, too. In space is where the transformation of the military is taking place. There are no weapons in space. Yet, the military has a great role to play. And since the military is not going to disappear, we have to give them something to do. Study what they are doing in space...there are no weapons in their roles...yet. Stop the same old peace/anti-nuke rehetoric. If we want change, we have to change, too.

[CTRL] New Mexico Governor advocating drug legalization
-Caveat Lector- From: David Goldman [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [CIA-DRUGS] New Mexico Governor advocating drug legalization Date: Monday, October 04, 1999 2:01 PM From: David Goldman [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/4/99 -- 3:56 PM New Mexico governor brings pro-narcotics message to Washington WASHINGTON (AP) - Not only has the war on drugs been a multibillion-dollar failure, but it has unjustifiably thrown thousands of people in prison while lying about the dangers of marijuana, New Mexico's governor said Monday. Gov. Gary Johnson, a Republican, kicked off a visit to the nation's capital by meeting with leaders of a college student group that shares his goal of drug legalization. Johnson is the country's highest-ranking elected official to advocate legalizing such drugs as cocaine, heroin and marijuana. After swimming two miles and jogging five miles for his morning workout, then bounding up four flights of stairs to avoid a sluggish elevator at George Washington University, Johnson told the students that drugs are a bad choice, but people should be allowed to decide for themselves whether to make it. ``I hate to say it, but the majority of people who use drugs use them responsibly,'' Johnson told members of Students for a Sensible Drug Policy. ``They choose when to do it. They do them at home. It's not a financial burden.'' White House drug policy director Barry McCaffrey and other officials excoriated Johnson last week after he became the first governor to support drug legalization. ``His pro-drug message runs in the face of all the hard work of millions of parents, teachers, health professionals, community leaders, coaches and clergy who are working so hard to stem drug use,'' McCaffrey said Friday. Johnson found a friendlier audience in the students. ``Students are experts on drug use,'' said Kris Lotlikar, a leader of the group. ``We're the children that this war was supposed to protect. But I have yet to talk to any student who came from a drug-free high school. To me, that's a failed policy.'' The students said they did not want to be labeled drug users just because they support legalization. ``We aren't a group of dope-smoking hippies,'' said David Epstein, a member of the group from American University. As the students sipped bottled water, Johnson told them of his drug use as a young man and his decision years ago to forgo not only drugs but alcohol and even Coca-Cola in favor of training for triathlons. ``I was somebody who smoked marijuana in college. I didn't experiment with marijuana, I smoked it,'' Johnson said. ``I made a bad choice, but even then it wasn't a choice that I felt should have landed me in jail.'' Johnson said he supports legalization of drugs, but under strict control of sales and use and with significant taxation. Under a legalization scheme, Johnson said, drugs such as marijuana, heroin and cocaine should not be available to anyone under 21, public drug use should be banned and penalties should be increased for crimes such as driving under the influence. ``There are going to be new problems under legalization,'' Johnson said. ``But I submit to you they are going to be about half of what they are today under the prohibition model.'' Current drug policy focuses too heavily on imprisoning people while allowing illegal drug cartels to rake in billions of dollars, Johnson said. Current anti-drug education efforts such as the government's ``this is your brain on drugs'' television commercials amount to lies, he said. ``You're brought up learning that drugs make you crazy,'' Johnson said. ``Then you do marijuana for the first time, and it's not so bad. It's kind of cool. That's when kids find out it's been a lie.'' Darren White, who oversees New Mexico's state police as head of the Department of Public Safety, told the students he is unwilling to support drug legalization but agreed with Johnson that current anti-drug efforts are misguided. ``We aren't winning the drug war. I can tell you because I'm fighting on the front lines every day,'' White said. ``I call it a skirmish, because that's the kind of resources I'm getting to fight it. ... As a nation, we're not willing to give up the civil liberties necessary to win the drug war.'' Copyright 1999 Associated Press. All rights reserved.

By Bobbie Sandoz, Author, Listening to Wild Dolphins, Learning Their Secrets for Living with Joy (October, 1999) FROM STAR WARS TO SEA WARS CLOSER TO HOME AND MORE DANGEROUS. ANOTHER LOOK AT THE ALLEGED SAFETY OF SONAR IN OUR OCEANS. There is a Potentially Lethal Force Being Prepared for Deployment in the World's Oceans - A Force so Powerful it Could Possibly Kill the Dolphins and Whales and All Marine Life as well as the Ocean Itself. We Have Less Than Two Months to Stop This Potentially Lethal Sonar Bath and Avert a Disaster not only for our World and Selves but for our Souls. Have you wondered why so many dolphins and whales and other marine mammals have been stranding as never before along our coasts? Have you questioned why their numbers as well as those of fish have so rapidly switched from flourishing populations to dying and diminished communities in the past few years? Is it mere coincidence that after decades of surviving the effects of human noises as well as other pollutants and even El Nino that the populations of so many species have dramatically declined following the recent increase in sonar testing in their habitats? There are indications that our own US Navy might be the source of these deaths and are poised to cause more by introducing sonar into 80% of the ocean at alarmingly destructive levels of energy, even more powerful than those already used during the recent testing of this device. Yet, as in Germany and more recently Kosovo, nobody seems to "know about it" or care enough to respond, or perhaps its because they don't understand the magnitude of the problem - or, if they do, they are afraid to speak up. Thus, as we stand at the threshold of the millennium wondering how to respond to such an important issue, ancient wisdom comes through elders such as Makah leader Alberta Thompson who not only urges us to reach deep into our souls to pull up our highest selves, but predicts that "what happens to the great beast will also happen to humanity." At this juncture in the road of our evolution and future, we must also ask why a group of large-brained and highly intelligent orcas gathered around a boat filled with musicians in the San Juans this summer to appreciate a human concert for them, demonstrating particular interest in "Amazing Grace," while hundreds of their whale cousins washed up on California shores, like giant canaries, killed by something deeply amiss in our world.

He later goes on to establish the U.S. Army Biological Warfare facilities in Maryland, Utah, and Panama, and is named to the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. While there, he begins a series of radiation exposure experiments on American soldiers and civilian hospital patients. 1932 The Tuskegee Syphilis Study begins. 200 black men diagnosed with syphilis are never told of their illness, are denied treatment, and instead are used as human guinea pigs in order to follow the progression and symptoms of the disease. They all subsequently die from syphilis, their families never told that they could have been treated. 1935 The Pellagra Incident. After millions of individuals die from Pellagra over a span of two decades, the U.S. Public Health Service finally acts to stem the disease. The director of the agency admits it had known for at least 20 years that Pellagra is caused by a niacin deficiency but failed to act since most of the deaths occured within poverty-striken black populations. 1940 Four hundred prisoners in Chicago are infected with Malaria in order to study the effects of new and experimental drugs to combat the disease. Nazi doctors later on trial at Nuremberg cite this American study to defend their own actions during the Holocaust. 1942 Chemical Warfare Services begins mustard gas experiments on approximately 4,000 servicemen. The experiments continue until 1945 and made use of Seventh Day Adventists who chose to become human guinea pigs rather than serve on active duty. 1943 In response to Japan's full-scale germ warfare program, the U.S. begins research on biological weapons at Fort Detrick, MD. 1944 U.S. Navy uses human subjects to test gas masks and clothing. Individuals were locked in a gas chamber and exposed to mustard gas and lewisite. 1945 Project Paperclip is initiated. The U.S. State Department, Army intelligence, and the CIA recruit Nazi scientists and offer them immunity and secret identities in exchange for work on top secret government projects in the United States. "Program F" is implemented by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). This is the most extensive U.S. study of the health effects of fluoride, which was a key chemical component in atomic bomb production. One of the most toxic chemicals known to man, fluoride, it is found, causes marked adverse effects to the central nervous system but much of the information is squelched in the name of national security because of fear that lawsuits would undermine full-scale production of atomic bombs. 1946 Patients in VA hospitals are used as guinea pigs for medical experiments. In order to allay suspicions, the order is given to change the word "experiments" to "investigations" or "observations" whenever reporting a medical study performed in one of the nation's veteran's hospitals. 1947 Colonel E.E. Kirkpatrick of the U.S. Atomic Energy Comission issues a secret document (Document 07075001, January 8, 1947) stating that the agency will begin administering intravenous doses of radioactive substances to human subjects. The CIA begins its study of LSD as a potential weapon for use by American intelligence. Human subjects (both civilian and military) are used with and without their knowledge. 1950 Department of Defense begins plans to detonate nuclear weapons in desert areas and monitor downwind residents for medical problems and mortality rates. In an experiment to determine how susceptible an American city would be to biological attack, the U.S. Navy sprays a cloud of bacteria from ships over San Franciso. Monitoring devices are situated throughout the city in order to test the extent of infection. Many residents become ill with pneumonia-like symptoms. 1951 Department of Defense begins open air tests using disease-producing bacteria and viruses.

[CTRL] Dr. Hulda Clarke arrested, Oct4 arraignment San Diego
-Caveat Lector- If you are interested in the right to make your own decisions about your healthcare options, this might be a good time to begin to take a stand. It's time that the large number of Americans who are disenchanted with government malfeasance in favor of large pharmaceutical firms make themselves heard. We cannot afford to remain silent while alternative medical researchers are rounded up and jailed, and while herbs and other simple, inexpensive and safe alternatives are suppressed or even criminalized in order to safeguard the profits of Monsanto, Searle, Ciba, Novartis, and other purveyors of poisons biotech/biowar.Pressure is being brought to bear in many arenas of government. Options In Health Care -- Emergency Alert! PLEASE HELP What constitutes healing? Who is deciding what constitutes healing and what are they basing their decisions on? 70 year old Dr. Hulda Clark, Ph.D., N.D. has been arrested and is being held in a facility in San Diego, CA, awaiting extradition to Brown County, Indiana. She has been charged with practicing medicine without a license by the District Attorney's office of her former place of residence. Dr. Clark, best known for her books The Cure For All Cancers and The Cure For All Diseases, as well as for her invention of the "Zapper," has been a public figure intently dedicated to spreading knowledge of healing techniques, and going against conventional medicine's monopoly on health care. Her arrest is an example and a warning to all Americans of the problem we collectively face: a health care system with few real options for treatment, fueled by greed, and fraught with criminality. There is substantial indication of possible systematic suppression of alternative therapies that threaten the interests of conventional medicine. There is an underground railroad of people in this country who have dedicated their lives to health and healing, and to the fight for freedom for real options in health care. Increasingly, these people who are in truth trying to help people, are being persecuted by a system which arbitrarily decides what is effective and legal treatment. These decisions often seem to be based on what is clearly profitable, as in pharmaceutical companies and their drugs, rather than what may be the most beneficial. (*Indiana law states effectiveness of treatments is not a defense. Does this help the public?*) More and more people in this country are becoming highly disillusioned with our health care system, and for very valid reasons. It is not enough to await slow and cumbersome legislation on the national level, which is unlikely to address the real issues. Dr. Clark's troubles represent but a small part of a gross problem in this country, and bring us to a higher platform. It is time to ask the most pertinent questions. What constitutes healing? Who is deciding what constitutes healing and what are they basing their decisions on? Why do we have so few real options in health care? Why are people who are going against the grain, and trying to establish footing in alternative rather than conventional medicine, more and more often finding themselves in trouble? Why are herbal supplement companies faced with regulation by the FDA that puts a stranglehold on their industry? Why are people who are selling health products on the Internet increasingly being investigated? What organizations are being formed by our government to enforce strict, impossible and arbitrary regulations, and to ensure a monopoly on health care? (If you have any information regarding this issue please write ASAP). WE NEED YOUR HELP. If you are familiar with Dr. Clark's work, and would like to support us in her defense, the following are ways in which you can help. 1) We will need as many letters and phone calls as possible. If her research has benefited your health, please help us by sharing this information. Addresses and phone numbers to follow in second post. 2) There is going to be a hearing for her on Monday morning in San Diego. We are asking everyone who wants to support Dr. Clark, and is able, to come to the courthouse at 220 W. Broadway, downtown San Diego, 2nd floor, Department 12, 8:35am Monday October 4. Please join in the fight for freedom in health care! If you feel you are being unfairly attacked or investigated for your work in health care, and are willing to share your story, please write. If you have any information or evidence suggesting unethical connections between the FDA and pharmaceutical companies, please write. If you work in the health care or herbal supplement industry, and are facing regulations that would effectively stifle your work, please write. If you have stories, regarding successful treatment by suppressed therapies, please write. If you can contribute in any way possible to a collective fight to increase our freedom in health care, please do! This is a very complex and difficult situation we find ourselves in. Clearly
[CTRL] Gov. Jesse Ventura pushing hemp
-Caveat Lector- Subject: Gov. Ventura seeks cooperation from resistant DEA Date: Thursday, September 30, 1999 11:00 AM THE STAR TRIBUNE Minneapolis, Minnesota September 30, 1999 State Plans for hemp farming Ventura seeks cooperation from resistant DEA By Conrad deFiebre Minnesota is moving ahead with efforts to allow its farmers to grow industrial hemp, a close cousin of marijuana that proponents say could offer an alternative crop with high potential. Gov. Jesse Ventura is expected to write to federal drug authorities today outlining his plan for implementing pro-hemp state legislation enacted last spring. His plan, however, calls for cooperation from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), which wields full authority over controlled substances and has strongly opposed reviving the U.S. hemp industry. Meanwhile, fierce debate continues over whether hemp offers enough commercial potential to justify the costly security controls likely to be imposed on its cultivation. Controls are in store because DEA officials and hemp enthusiast agree on one thing: Food- and-fiber-producing hemp and smokable marijuana are nearly indistinguishable varieties of the same Cannabis plant, differing only in their content of the psychoactive ingredient tetrahyrocannabinol (THC). Venturas letter is expected to propose that would-be hemp farmers apply for permits through the state Board of Pharmacy and the DEA. But the rules for commercial hemp cultivation in Minnesota would be set by the DEA, which so far has had one simple rule: Dont do it. The policy has not been changed, Tom McCormick, head of the DEAs Minneapolis office, said Wednesday. But we are seriously looking at it right now. The decision will be coming out of Washington. It could come in less than a year, he said. The governments review has been accelerated by growing interest in hemp production. Pro-hemp laws were enacted this year in Minnesota, Hawaii, Nebraska and North Dakota. North Dakota, in fact, is farther along the hemp trail than Minnesota, having reclassified hemp as an oilseed crop. It also has enacted provisions for growing and processing hemp. But even if the DEA allows hemp crops, its unclear how profitable they may be. Some critics raise specters of the Jerusalem artichoke scam that ravaged rural Minnesota in the 1980s. There may well be zero market for this stuff, said Minnesota Public Safety Commissioner Charlie Weaver, who has consulted with state trade and agriculture officials to shape Venturas hemp policy. But we have an obligation to be helpful to those folks who are interested. Hemp seeds produce an oil that can be used to make tofu, butter, cheese, salad oils and other foods. Hemp fiber can be used to make clothing, ropes, paper, particle-board products and more. But even Hemp John Birrenbach of St. Paul, an avowed marijuana advocate, said, There are marketing and processing problems. In addition, mandatory security measures probably would cut deeply into producers profits. McCormick said the DEA likely will require farmers to post bonds of up to $1,000 an acre to pay for government seizure and burning of hemp that crosses a THC threshold of about 0.3 percent. THC levels of 0.5 percent or greater are considered potent, he said. Hemp farmers also probably would have to pay license fees for criminal background checks and government inspections, he added. Subject: GOV. VENTURA ANNOUNCES HEMP SEMINAR Date: Friday, October 01, 1999 11:17 AM STATE OF MINNESOTA OFFICE OF GOVERNOR JESSE VENTURA 130 Capitol, 75 Constitution Avenue Saint Paul, Minneapolis For immediate release: September 30, 1999 GOVERNOR JESSE VENTURA ANNOUNCES HEMP SEMINAR Contact John Wodele: (651) 296-0001 (St. Paul, MN) Governor Ventura today announced that an informational seminar will be held on November 19, 1999, to reach individual farmers how to apply for a permit to grow industrial hemp. The time and venue of the seminar will be announced in the next two weeks. The informational seminar is in response to legislation passed by the 1999 Minnesota Legislature requiring the state to apply by September 30 for a federal permit to grow industrial hemp. The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) recently informed Minnesota officials that a state cannot apply for a general blanket permit. Rather, individual farmers must apply directly to the DEA and the Minnesota Board of Pharmacy for a permit to grow experimental plots of industrial hemp. Minnesota Agriculture Commissioners Gene Hugoson and Trade and Economic Development Commissioner Jerry Carlson will co-host the November 19 seminar, giving farmers tips on how to apply for the federal and state permits they will need to grow experimental plots. They will also discuss any special conditions DEA has set for lawful cultivation of the crop. The Governor also sent a letter to President Clinton today, in which he

Teach-In on the Crisis at ("Free Speech Radio") Pacifica, with Larry Bensky, Dennis Bernstein, Roy Tuckman, and (by telephone) Helen Caldicott (Los Angeles, 3 hours 32 minutes); Amy Goodman, on the massacre she witnessed in East Timor in 1996 (1 hour 15 minutes); Richard Grossman: "The Corporate Insurgency Against Democracy" (59 minutes); The termination without notification or hearing of Ruben Tapia's "Enfoque Latino" by Pacifica's Los Angeles station, KPFK, following an alleged violation of it's "gag rule", plus a visit to the tent city that arose in protest of the lock-out at KPFA in Berkeley (35 minutes). If you are already down as a subscriber your tape will be mailed to you as soon as we are able to get them made and packaged, probably about a week. If you haven't sent in your donation for earlier tapes in the series please do so, since we are almost out of funds to buy blank tapes. We are sending an 8-hour tape this time, even though it is more work and the blank tapes cost more, because we have a lot of timely and informative material that we do not want to have to hold back. Please help us by sending in your checks for earlier tapes so that we can buy blank tape and get the new ones made and mailed. In case you have extra resources and would like to help out, we also need funds for more VCRs so we can make more videotapes at a time and get them out faster. Even when we are home we can only make about 2 tapes an hour right now. We would also like to be able to get a digital camera eventually. Anything you can send will be greatly appreciated and will be put to good use. If you are not a subscriber to the series you may order this new tape individually for $12 (in part because of the higher cost of 8-hour videotape), or you may still take advantage of the special $5 per tape subscription price by letting us also send you the 2 previous tapes in the series (at $5 each by subscription): Volume 15: Michael Parenti at CSUF, Howard Zinn at Sonoma State Univ., Noam Chomsky interviewed at MIT, Belgian journalist Michel Collon on the 4 goals of NATO in Europe, Sara Flounders, and Lenore Foerstel. All of these talks related to the US/NATO bombing of Yugoslavia. Total time: 6 hours 6 minutes. Volume 16: The First Hearing of the Independent Commission of Inquiry to Investigate U.S./NATO War Crimes Against the People of Yugoslavia held in New York City on July 31, 1999. The tape includes the two major plenaries and most of 2 workshops, and is 6 hours 7 minutes long. Among the 25 speakers were Michael Parenti and Ramsey Clark, who gave the keynote address. Like Volume 17, these are both excellent and thoroughly engrossing tapes, with much that relates to what we can expect in the future. As a subscriber, you will receive subsequent tapes in the series, much like subscribing to a magazine. They will come about 4 to 6 weeks apart, and you will be expected to send a $5 or more after each one, in the envelope we will send with each tape. You can cancel whenever you choose. To subscribe, just email or call us and tell us you would like to subscribe, and give us your mailing address. You can also order a tape by phone or email; if just ordering a tape, please identify the tape you wish to order, and give your mailing address. Again, the $5 minimum donation applies to subscriptions only. The difference reflects the amount of time it takes to handle individual orders. Please subscribe if you can. If you haven't already, please send payment at this time for the tapes you have already received. Please do not send payment for Volume 17 until after you receive it, in part because we want to make sure the tape gets to you intact, but also so that you will have had an opportunity to ascertain the value of the material on the tape when deciding whether or not to send an extra donation above the $5 minimum. Hopefully we will eventually have enough subscribers so that our average costs approximate $5, so that we will not find it as necessary to seek extra donations from those that wish to and can afford to make them. We are happy to announce that thanks to the efforts of many of you we now have about 400 signed up as subscribers. Hopefully, most of them will follow through and send in their pledges, although many have not so far. Assuming they do, our next goal is to reach 1000 subscribers by the end of the year (by December if possible). We'll need your help to do that. I'll keep you posted as

-Caveat Lector- excerpt reference: ...a covert military group "specializing in dissemination of disinformation," collectively known as the "Aviary." From: Remy C. [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: endsecrecy list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [endsecrecy] Spooky Boys With Spooky Toys Date: Thursday, September 23, 1999 7:21 AM From: http://www.umsl.edu/~skthoma/offline.htm Offline Illumination; Steamshovel Press Spooky Boys With Spooky Toys by Uri Dowbenko Future War: Non-Lethal Weapons in Twenty-First Century Warfare by Colonel John B. Alexander, US Army (Retired) (1999, St. Martin's Press, 254 pp.. $24.95) Colonel John Alexander never met a war he didn't like. As an unofficial spokesman for the Military-Industrial Complex, Alexander has written a book called Future War in which he continues to ply his trade -- promoting war -- and most importantly advocating those all-important expendables called "weapons systems." The oxymoronic "non-lethal weapons" which Alexander touts are anything but. They include exotic systems like electromagnetic weapons, chemical and biological warfare, so-called physical restraints like goop guns, etc., acoustic weapons, as well as information warfare technologies, which include good old-fashioned military propaganda -- like his book itself. Without questioning the wrong-headed abstruse US Government policies of war-making, he includes a brief history of War's Greatest Hits in a chapter called "Are We the World's Police Force?" Alexander's answer is an unequivocal yes. These include -- Restore Hope: Somalia; United Shield: Somalia Round II; Uphold Democracy: Haiti; Bosnia; The Idaho Rebellion (just kidding). Internet Bashing In a chapter called "Information Warfare," Alexander sounds the alarm about -- you guessed -it -- the "dangers of the Internet." You see, those nasty hackers, crackers and phrackers are out to get the Information Infrastructure. How do we know? Alexander says so. "It is predicted that anti-hacker software sales will increase from $1.1 billion in 1995 to greater than $16 billion in 2000," he writes. "The President's Committee of Critical Infrastructure Protection noted the increased likelihood of computer terrorism and recommended that research and development, now $250 million annually, should be increased $100 million per year until $12 billion is provided on a yearly basis." No matter what the "security" problem, all we need to do is spend more taxpayer dollars on the Military-Industrial Complex. Secret Life of John Alexander Virtually disregarded in this book is Alexander's spooky background as a Psy0ps (or psychological operations) expert, as well as a psychic warfare- mind control operative. According to Alex Constantine, author of Virtual Government (Feral House, 1997), Colonel John Alexander has displayed a long term interest in the paranormal and "has actively promoted psychic metal bending among government personnel using the techniques pioneered by Jack Houck of McDonnell-Douglas." Before his "retirement," Alexander had a 32-year career in the Army, including a stint as director of Advanced Systems Concepts Office, US Army Laboratory Command Alexander was also chief of the Advanced Human Technology Office Security Command (INSCOM) and ran the "non-lethal" weapons lab at Los Alamos in New Mexico. Alexander allegedly also has a doctor's degree in thanatology, the science of death. British reporter Armen Victorian concludes that John B. Alexander is an active operative assigned to a covert military group "specializing in dissemination of disinformation," collectively known as the "Aviary." In a recent interview, David Morehouse, author of Psychic Warrior, (St. Martin's Press, 1996) reports that "Alexander was a Special Forces officer in Vietnam who commanded a Montagnard battalion. Others say he was a member of the Phoenix Project [the notorious CIA assassination program]. When he came out, he worked with the intelligence community and he never left." Later Alexander led a CIA harassment campaign against Morehouse. Alexander, the "retired" colonel working for the CIA, Jim Schnabel and Joe McMoneagle were all actively involved in spreading disinformation Campaign against him on the Internet, says Morehouse. Politically Incorrect Warrior And why was Morehouse harassed? Morehouse was a whistleblower who wrote a book called Non Lethal Weapons: War Without Death (1996, Greenwood Publishing) with a politically incorrect perspective. "Conventional weaponry is designed to kill. The new hybrid conventional weaponry is designed to maim. Non-lethal weaponry, by this definition, must be anti-materiel and not anti-personnel," said Morehouse in a recorded interview. "My book takes a very philosophical approach to the concept of non- lethality," Morehouse continues. "It talks about what conventional weapons have done in this century. They've taken the lives of 170 million innocent human beings' lives -- doctors, lawyers, professors, housewives,

You may wish to visit our web site and get the full text www.serving-nation.com This is an answer to spiritualizing the United Nations, and we agree that without spiritual context, and values, we cannot move forward. Answer to Spiritualizing the United Nations, Text: The idea of "A Serving Nation" (ASN) is an expression of a global consciousness. We are witnessing that the world community is not on track with commitments made for a just world. ASN could become the new democracy, the next step in evolution expressed by indivuals who understand that world service is a solution. NGOs represent about 250 million people around the world, and every day new ones are being created. Civil Society is creating "A Peaceful Revolution" to catalyze a quantum leap into a new civilisation: Peaceful, global, just, demilitarised and deprofitized. The MISSION: ASN does not aim at being one more humanitarian organisation. It simple aims at helping its citizens function where they are, but with a new consciousness and understanding that... ...the solution to the world's problems does not reside in better technologies, cleverer organizations, greater freedom of world markets, and other similar approaches, but... ...in the worldwide dissemination of a spirit of disinterested service, respect for Human Rights and integrity of action. In the long run, ASN could end up with the creation of a "Community of consciousness" which would turn into a spiritual U.N. family - the term "spiritual", meaning, here, values of the spirit without any attachment to a religious institution. The key element of the strategy of ASN will always be a spirit of selfless service rendered with joy. Without this spirit, ASN has no reason to exist.

Code § 1-285 (1981) be and hereby is GRANTED. Defendant District of Columbia Board of Elections and Ethics is hereby authorized to tabulate, announce and verify the results of the November 3, 1998 election on Initiative S9. From: Peace through Reason [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: MedMJ News [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Med MJ News--Text version of Judge's Order Date: Sunday, September 19, 1999 7:53 AM Judge's Order, text version. Thomas UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA WAYNE TURNER, et al., Civil Action No. 98-2634 (RWR) Plaintiffs, Plaintiffs, FILED v.Sept 17 1999 NANCY MAYER WHITTINGTON, CLERK D.C. BOARD OF ELECTIONS AND ETHICS, U.S. DISTRICT COURT Defendant and UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Intervenor. MEMORANDUM OPINION Plaintiffs, five registered District of Columbia voters and a committee of such voters, and the defendant, the District or Columbia Board of Elections and Ethics ("the Board"), seek a declaratory judgment that Sec. 171 of Congress's 1998 District of Columbia Appropriations Act (the "Barr Amendment") is unconstitutional if it bars the Board from counting, releasing, and certifying the results of the November 3, l998 D. C. referendum known as initiative 59. The Unified States intervenor defending the constitutionality of the Barr Amendment, claiming that it bars certifying but not counting and announcing the election results. The Court held a consolidated hearing on the merits of plaintiffs' motion for a preliminary injunction and on -2- the parties' cross motions for summary judgment. Because the Court holds that the Barr Amendment does not preclude the Board from counting, announcing or certifying the results of the referendum on Initiative 59, the Board may release and certify them and the Court need not reach the constitutional question. Factual Background On September 17, 1998, the Board certified a ballot initiative entitled Initiative 59 as proper for placement on the ballot for the November 1998 District of Columbia elections after the measure garnered the requisite support through signatures. (Def.'s Mem. Summ. J., Attmts. Ex. 2, Miller Decl. at 4 ("Miller Decl.".) Initiative 59, known as the Medical Marijuana Initiative, was designed, in part, to allow chronically ill individuals to use marijuana without violating criminal provisions of the D.C. Code. (Def.'s Mem. Supp. Summ. J. at 2-3 ("Def.'s Mem.").) Attmts.' Initiative 59 states in part: Sec. 1 All seriously ill individuals have the right to obtain and use marijuana for medical purposes when a licensed physician has found the use of marijuana to be medically necessary. . . Sec. 2 Medical patients who use, and their primary caregivers who obtain for such patients, marijuana for medical purposes upon the recommendation of a licensed physician do no[t] violate the District of Columbia Uniform Controlled Substances Act of 1981 (Def.'s Mem., Attmts., Ex. 3.) -3- On October 21, 1998, Congress enacted the Barr Amendment as part of the District of Columbia Appropriations Act. Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Bill of 1998, Pub. L. No. 105-277, 112 Stat. 2681-150 (1998) The Barr Amendment provides that: None of the funds contained in [the District of Columbia Appropriations Act] may be used to conduct any ballot initiative which seeks to legalize or otherwise reduce penalties associated with the possession, use, or distribution of any schedule I subs substance under the Controlled Substances Act . . . or any tetrahydrocannabinols derivative. Id, Because Initiative 59 attempts to reduce penalties for some use and possession of marijuana, it falls under the purview of the Barr Amendment. On November 3, 1998, residents of the District of Columbia voted on Initiative 59 since it had been printed on the ballots prior to passage of the Barr Amendment. (Def.'s Mem. at 8.) The Board has not released the results of the vote on initiative 59, however, for fear of violating the Barr Amendment. Interpreting the Barr Amendment The text of the Barr Amendment prevents the Board from using funds to "conduct any ballot initiative" regarding any measure designed to lesser penalties for drug possession, use, or distribution. The question, then) is, whether counting, -4- releasing, and certifying the results of the election is part of conducting a ballot initiative. The plaintiffs argue in their motion for summary judgment that the Amendment should apply to the activity that takes place only up to and including election day but not any of the duties required of the Board after

We agree that it adds strength to the nuclear abolition movement to unite all survival issues together under a prayer for "Global Peace Now!" We also support the idea of a Global Peace and Environment Platform for candidates in the Year 2000 U.S. National elections. The world we all live in is the product of ideas, individual and collective. For too long humanity's time, energy, "money," have been funneled into rotten ideas. This situation can be changed if we spend our energy and resources on PRACTICAL concepts, and transform the deadly "military-industrial complex" President Eisenhower warned about into self-sustaining, environment- and neighbor-friendly industries. (See http://prop1.org/convert/convpro.htm.) We are very encouraged that DC Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton has again introduced into Congress HR-2545, the Nuclear Disarmament and Economic Conversion Act of 1999, which calls on the U.S. to commit to global nuclear disarmament, and to redirect weapons funding to peaceful purposes such as housing, health care, education, food, and environmental restoration. See http://prop1.org/prop1/hr2545.htm. This bill was first submitted, in 1994, as the result of a successful Washington, DC ballot initiative (#37, 1993), which asked the mayor to advise our Congresswoman that the majority of the voters wanted her to introduce it. We hope that Global Peace Walk2000 will help alert the people in America and around the world to this great opportunity, which only needs adequate public support to be made into law in the U.S. ... and thence around the world.

opvcia.com , and most blatently of all the ongoing centuries of genocidal US policy towards the indigenous peoples exemplified by the extreme poverty of the Dakota peoples and the Dineh people around the Big Mountain area of Arizona who are facing next February's deadline of forceable relocation for corporations access of coal and uranium when the walk comes through their area. Reports from some of our people who took part in this summer's Sundance Ceremonies indicate that the government is moving once again towards outlawing this sacred ceremony, arresting attendees/participants even this year, as it was for almost 90 years until The Longest Walk in 1978 stopped 15 different "anti-Indian" bills in Congress and brought about the American Indian Religious Freedom Act to relegalize the Sundance which has grown so large in its practices as to now be perceived as a threat to the US government analogous to the perceived threat to the Communist Chinese Government for which the members of the Falun Gong spiritual movement are now being jailed there. That case is directly analogous to the US oppression of the indigenous and Rainbow peoples and their cultures of peace here in America. Must we actually petition for an American People's Religious Freedom Act? Shouldn't the US Constitution already guarantee religious freedom? This is what you will be finding out with your court case. This is really why it is so important for everyone to support you and others in this matter. These are only some of the reasons why it is time to stand up and walk again for peace and to carry our grievances and prayers to the nation's capitol and to the "capitol" of the United Nations and proclaim that the governments correct their ways before the people break faith with the myth of the sovereign power of the state and reclaim their personal sovereignty ceded to the state by agreement before and taken away by coersion and force today. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: David Crockett Williams [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Saturday, September 11, 1999 10:50 AM Subject: Re: PeaceTribes website links Howdy, i reckoned at one point that we wuz hooked-up..webbed... soon as su can get to it, our website wilst be spruced up, and made immedio... did you get my long 25k letter.. peace good brother and howdy to yore ma... plunk At 01:23 PM 9/7/99 -0700, you wrote: Can you add in your website http://www.wildrockies.org/peacetribes/ links section an entry for "Global Peace Walk2000" linked to http://www.globalpeacenow.org ?

[CTRL] Cold Fusion Patent Office
-Caveat Lector- From: Remy C. [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: endsecrecy list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [endsecrecy] Cold Fusion Patent Office Date: Friday, September 10, 1999 9:19 AM Date: 6 August 1999 From: Hal Fox [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hal Fox President, Fusion Information Center INVESTIGATION OF PATENT OFFICE Special Agent Kimberlee Taylor Office of the Inspector General Commerce Department Room 7614 14th and Constitution, NW Washington, DC 20230 Phone 202-482-0909 Fax 202-501-0710 Due to complaints about the reluctance of the Office of Patents and Trademarks to allow any patent applications for cold fusion, or low-energy nuclear reactions to be processed beyond being rejected, an investigation has been ordered. Special Agent Kimberlee Taylor has been asked to get information about the complaints against the actions of the Office of Patents and Trademarks and report back to her supervisor. Dr. Mitchell Swartz has sent 35 pounds of papers, books, and 3 videos to Ms. Taylor. Hal Fox has written a four-page summary of the events that have attempted to dismiss cold fusion as bad science. It is believed that this investigation has been caused by citizens writing to their elected officials (Senators and Members of Congress). It is further strongly suggested that the best possible help for the support of this investigation will be a considerable expression of concern from our Senators and Members of Congress. PLEASE WRITE THE MEMBER OF CONGRESS FROM YOUR DISTRICT AND BOTH SENATORS FROM YOUR STATE. Send a copy to Ms. Kimberlee Taylor. A brief summary of the history of the attempts to stop the development of cold fusion is posted at ? [ check http://www.padrak.com/ine ] (Dr. Bailey put in a hot button or something and post the attachment) Please help this important investigation by sharing this message with everyone you can, especially via the internet. Here are salient features: The United States is the only nation to deny inventors the right to patent cold fusion and low-energy nuclear reactions inventions. Why? Of over 3,000 technical papers on cold fusion (many theory and review papers) over 600 papers from over 200 scientific laboratories from precisely 30 countries have reported success in replicating or extending the original discovery of Professors Pons and Fleischmann. Over 100 cold fusion (new-hydrogen energy) patents have issued in Japan. Seven international conferences have been held on cold fusion with an estimated 200 or more scientists attending each conference. Is it conceivable that all of this time and effort by world-class scientists would be spent on a scientific fraud? Two groups offer kits for sale with MONEY-BACK GUARANTEES of success. Professor John Dash is preparing to sell cold fusion kits to high schools. His summer classes for entering science students and interested high-school students have had successful cold fusion experiments every summer for several years. The person in the Office of Patents and Trademarks who is the supervisor of the activity to handle the class of inventions that include cold fusion and low-energy nuclear reactions is Harvey Bhrendt. He is reported to state that cold fusion is not real because there are no commercial products on the market. Perhaps he hasn't heard about the products that are being offered for sale with a money-back guarantee. Perhaps he realizes that it is very difficult to commercial a product without patent protection. The big issue is the denial to U.S. inventors of their constitutional rights to the protection of their inventions! == Here is the background information faxed to Special Agent Taylor: Dear Ms. Kimberlee Taylor, We have been informed that you are interested in information regarding cold fusion and low-energy nuclear reactions and the policy of the Office of Patents and Trademarks with respect to patent applications. The following information may be of some interest: A. BACKGROUND As the director of the first research laboratory at the University of Utah Research Park, I was intensely interested in the March 23, 1989 announcement of cold fusion called by the University of Utah administration (not called by Pons and Fleischmann). The announcement of a new source of energy was most exciting to me. That day I began the plans for trying to be of some help (systems engineering background, missile system specialist for several years). By mid April 1989 we had organized the Fusion Information Center and obtained offices at the University of Utah Research Park. By July 1989, we had decided that information gathering and publishing such information would be our best role. Our first edition of Fusion Facts was published in July 1989 and continued as a monthly publication for several years before being incorporated as a part of the Journal of New Energy, a peer-reviewed, quarterly, scientific journal (abstracted from the first issue by Chemical Abstracts -- the world's
[CTRL] Bush Babies in the Briar Patch Offline Illumination (http://www.umsl.edu/~skthoma/offline.htm)
-Caveat Lector- http://www.umsl.edu/~skthoma/offline.htm Offline Illumination Bush Babies in the Briar Patch by Uri Dowbenko Despite Big Media's coronation of George W. Bush as the next president, new -- or rather decades old -- skeletons keep rattling in the Bush Family closet. You won't find them in Talk Magazine, however. Headed by Tina Brown, former editor of New Yorker and Vanity Fair, Talk's September 1999 premiere issue is a hefty 254 pages of celebrity fluff disguised as editorial content. Sandwiched between the typical fashion ads featuring the typical nymphets, there's an ironically titled article by Tucker Carlson called "Devil May Care." It's subtitled "George. W. Bush doesn't give a damn what you think of him. That may be why you'll vote for him for president." In Carlson's casually written hagiography, you'll learn, that "Bush announced that his campaign had raised $36 million so.far, a record in American politics." "Bush chuckles at the memory," writes Carlson, who obviously inhabits a parallel universe of squeaky clean politicians with oh-so-hip repartee. "'The press should have been able to figure it out,' he [Bush] says. 'They're not paying much attention. We raised $800,000 in Fort Meyers." Presumably that doesn't even include the laundered drug money. The Secret Bush Brothers Video According to LAPD whistleblower Michael C. Ruppert, the Drug Enforcement Agency has in its possession a video of George W. Bush and Jeb Bush flying in to Tamiami Airport outside of Miami, Florida "to pick up a couple of kilos of powder for a party." (From the Wilderness Newsletter; $35 / yr; FTW Publications, PO Box 6061-350, Sherman Oaks, CA 91413). Ruppert heard about it from Terry Reed, author of Compromised: Clinton, Bush and the CIA (1994). "I was with Terry recently at a public speaking engagement where he reminded the audience of a little passage from his book Compromised," writes Ruppert. "In that passage he describes how Barry Seal had told him that he had 'insurance' in the form of proof that the Bush Boys were doing heavy drugs." According to Reed, "the FBI had inserted a female undercover agent into the inner circle of Medellin Cartel founder Pablo Escobar. Her name was Darlene Novinger and she got very close to an Escobar cousin named Steve Plata." "Thanks to the 'uc', as undercovers are called, Barry Seal and Terry Reed were sent on a drug sting to meet some wealthy Texans," writes Ruppert. "It turns out that the wealthy Texans were George W. and Jeb Bush who flew in on the family owned King Air to pick up the cocaine themselves. Hidden DEA cameras filmed the whole incident, including the tail number of the aircraft and both Bushes participation. According to Reed, nobody knew in advance who the buyers were. Reed states that he has both the tail number of the aircraft and the DEA case file number and he strongly suspects that tape to turn up during the 2000 presidential election." Getting the Dope on Bush Former CIA operative Terry Reed had worked closely with the late Barry Seal, a notorious drug smuggling pilot who also worked for the CIA. In his excellent book, Compromised, written with veteran journalist John Cumrnings, Reed describes a conversation he had with Seal about his 'insurance" aka blackmail, in case the Bush Family Crime Syndicate would try to double-cross him. "Ever hear the old expression, it's not what ya know, it's who ya know? Well, whoever said that just hadn't caught the Vice President's [George Bush's] kids in the dope business, 'cause I can tell ya for sure what ya know can definitely be more important than who ya know," bragged Seal to his buddy. Reed was incredulous. "... Barry, are you telling me George Bush's kids are in the drug business?" he asked. "Yup,. that's what I'm tellin ya. A guy in Florida who flipped for the DEA has got the goods on the Bush boys. Now I heard this from a reliable source in Colombia, but I just sat on it then, waiting to use it as a trump card if I ever needed it. Well I need to use it now. I got names, dates, places, even got some tape recordings. I even got surveillance. videos catchin' the Bush boys redhanded. I consider this stuff my insurance policy, " said Seal. "It makes me and the mole on the inside that's feeding the stuff to me invincible. Now this is real sensitive shit inside of U.S. Customs and DEA and those guys are pretty much under control. It's damage control as usual. But where it gets real interestin' is what the Republicans will do to the Democrats in order to ditty up the people who might use this information against Bush." Hinting at a high-level Mob War between.the Bush Family and the Clinton Family, Seal told Reed that "he was on a secret mission by none other than the Agency [CIA] to sort of dirty up some people real close to the Governor [Clinton]." "Now I had been working on this through Dan Lasater," continued Seal. "Now Dan's a good ol boy and all that, but he's gotta drug problem and

Paperback - 256 pages (July 1, 1999) Renaissance Books; ISBN: 1580630774 ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.67 x 9.01 x 6.00 Reviews Amazon.com Mick Farren's A-to-Z compendium of conspiracy theory icons and other subcultural flash points offers an effective combination of documentation and humor. In addition to the expected material on the Trilateral Commission, the JFK assassination, and whatever it is the government's keeping in Area 51, Conspiracies, Lies, and Hidden Agendas has entries for incidents that never quite made it into the most popular versions of the secret history of the New World Order. Everyone remembers the Iran-Contra portion of the Reagan administration, for example, but Farren reminds us of the brief hullabaloo surrounding the 1983 murder of Vicki Morgan, the mistress of Reagan crony Alfred Bloomingdale. Visual icons situate each entry into one or more of 15 separate categories, including aliens, Nazis, the feds, and religious cults. (Of the Church of Scientology, though, Farren merely notes that they "have many lawyers and they tend to sue anyone who says bad things about them.") Among the most recent phenomena noted in the book are the "Bill Clinton death list" that circulated on the Internet and in right-wing media in 1998, and the 1999 high school massacre at Littleton, Colorado. Book Description According to Newsweek magazine, three quarters of Americans believe the "the government is involved in conspiracy." The X-Files is a national phenomenon. As we approach the year 2000, the media is filled with dire predictions of new millennium paranoia In an A-Z directory format, Conspiracies, Lies, and Hidden Agendas by Mick Farren contains over 200 entries. Neither poking fun at conspiracy buffs nor conceding all arguments to skeptics, Farren's insightful account provides an objective and fascinating look at contemporary phenomenon. Customer Comments Average Customer Review: Number of Reviews: 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] from USA , June 24, 1999 Entertaining comments on 200+ fascinating topics There are about 235 essay, ranging from one sentence to 3-4 pages on 15 topics, each assigned an icon. There are about 355 uses of the icons in the book, but these categories are not indexed. (I have indexed these and will share with those interested.) Most popular topic Teh Feds (65 mentions), then aliens (40), and so forth to only 11 mentions of magnetism. Surpringly, drugs, computers and the "end of teh world" are amoung the topics mentioend only a dozen times or so. On a critical note, Christians will not like to see The Book of Revelation described as "science fiction." No sources are given for the articles, while a short bibliography is given, but not thematically. The index is very selective. A fun read.

About The Nine, Puharich, Geller, Hurtak, Einhorn, Hoagland, the UN, Al Gore... Also mentions the Russians and Gorbachev Foundation ©John Brown Publishing / Fortean Times 99 http://www.forteantimes.com/artic/126/nine.html PLANET NINE FROM OUTER SPACE One New Age channelling cult, above all the rest, has had a huge - very disturbing influence on hundreds of thousands of devotees worldwide. Known as 'The Nine', its disciples include cutting edge scientists, multi-millionaire industrialists and leading politicians. This exclusive extract based on The Startgate Conspiracy by Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince looks at the sinister origins of The Nine I am the beginning. I am the end. I am the emissary. But the original time I was on the Planet Earth was 34,000 of your years ago. I am the balance. And when I say "I" - I mean because I am an emissary for The Nine. It is not I , but it is the group We are nine principles of the Universe, yet together we are one. The declaration above is typical of the channelled pronouncements of the Council of Nine or just The Nine. They contain all the usual New Age ingredients of grandiose statements, shaky grammar and unprovable predictions. But unlike all the other channelling cults, that of The Nine has serious clout. Perhaps the reason for this is that they claim to be the Ennead, or the nine major gods of ancient Egypt (see panel). Or could there be another reason, one that owes more to The X-Files than the Pyramid Texts? Although The Nine may appear to be quintessentially a modern phenomenon, our research uncovered its truly astonishing pedigree. In fact, the story begins nearly 50 years ago, in a private research laboratory in Glen Cove, Maine, called the Round Table Foundation, run by a medical doctor named Andrija Puharich (also known as Henry K Puharich).Set up in 1948 to research the paranormal, among the noted psychics studied at the Foundation were the famous Irish medium Eileen Garrett and the Dutch clairvoyant Peter Hurkos (Pieter van de Hirk). Prominent members included the influential philosopher and inventor Arthur M Young and the socialite Alice Bouverie (née Astor). In December 1952, Puharich brought into his laboratory an Indian mystic named Dr D G Vinod, who began to channel The Nine or the Nine Principles. In the months before Vinod returned to India, a group met regularly to hear The Nines channelled wisdom. Never known for their modesty, The Nine proclaimed themselves to be God, stating "God is nobody else than we together, the Nine Principles of God." Three years later, there appeared to be independent confirmation of their existence. In Mexico, Puharich and Young met Charles and Lillian Laughead, former Christian missionaries who were by then prominent in the burgeoning UFO contactee movement. (For a description of their involvement in the Dorothy Martin circle, see Jerome Clarks When Prophecy Failed in FT117.) Back in the States a few weeks later, Puharich received a letter from the Laugheads containing messages received by their groups channeller. This message also claimed to come from the Nine Principles, even amazingly including references to the earlier communications transmitted through Dr Vinod. Could The Nine possibly be for real? Perhaps the answer is embedded in the career of Puharich himself. After disbanding the Round Table Foundation in 1958, he worked for 10 years as an inventor of medical devices and achieved international recognition as a parapsychologist, most famously studying the Brazilian psychic surgeon, Arigo (José Pedro de Freitas). But all that was to pale into insignificance because, in 1971, Puharich discovered Uri Geller. At their first meetings in Tel Aviv in 1971, Puharich hypnotised Geller in an attempt to find out where his abilities came from. As a result, the young Israeli started to channel Spectra an entity which claimed to be a conscious super-computer aboard a spaceship. However, Puharich suggested to him that there might be a connection with the Nine Principles, and Spectra readily agreed that there was. The Nine claimed that they had programmed Geller with his powers as a young child. Through Geller, The Nine alerted Puharich to his lifes mission, which was to use Gellers talents to alert the world to an imminent mass landing of spaceships that would bring representatives of The Nine. However, Geller by now an international psychic superstar bowed out in 1973 and has resolutely turned his back on The Nine ever since. Puharich had to find other channels. He joined up with aristocratic former racing driver Sir John Whitmore and Florida-based psychic and healer Phyllis Schlemmer. They

[CTRL] CIA InfoWars
-Caveat Lector- INFOWARS II RALPH MCGEHEE, CIABASE: Presidential Decision Directive 68, ordered the creation of the International Public Information system -- and said "information aimed at the U.S. audience should be coordinated integrated, deconflicted and synchronized with the IPI to achieve a synergistic effect" One major role for the CIA [which is part of the system] is the creation of false evidence to support its operations -- it refuses to share those details with other agencies. Internally it even restricts details of such operations using strict need-to-know and compartmentation policies. So when it conducts many and massive deception operations those deceits inevitably will end up in the domestic media and will shape our foreign policies. With the creation of the IPI these stories will be disseminated world-wide and especially domestically. What are some types of CIA False Evidence operations? The CIA forges documents and places them where they will be discovered and disseminated widely. (It effectively demonizes targets even the most honorable while glorifying sponsored "demons"). It sets off bombs, blaming them on targets. It plants "communist" or now probably "terrorist" weapons shipments and arranges for them to be found as it broadcasts details of such widely. It buys foreign media and employees and book publishers, establishes policy-making think tanks and their publications, it employs foreign radio and television stations -- all used to disseminate its deceits. Doctored photographs, false atrocity stories, falsely attributed scholarly books written criticizing or blaming this or that movement or target (over 1000 titles published in one period) make up more of its arsenal of lies. Its operations in academia sponsor or subvert thousands of domestic academicians and untold numbers of foreign academics. It also sponsors numerous politicians and their groups and media operations. So this is what the American people can expect under the new IPI. To appreciate its terrible power I recommend reading George Orwell's classic "1984."

The Security Council through nine years of economic sanctions forced on it by the United States, has caused the greatest human disaster in this last decade of a century of self inflicted human disasters. More than 1,500,000 people have been killed; overwhelmingly infants, children, elderly persons, pregnant and nursing women, the chronically ill and emergency medical cases. The whole population of Iraq has been afflicted. Every UN agency dealing with health, food, and children has confirmed the effect of the sanctions on the people of Iraq and reported to the UN and the world regularly on this human catastrophe since 1990. As of August 1991 UNICEF reported at least 47,500 deaths of children under age 5 as a result of the sanctions. Hundreds of governmental and private organizations and many more individuals from all over the world have documented the horror caused by these sanctions. Only a person bereft of any concern for truth, without compassion and possessing a character incapable of shame would claim that Saddam Hussein, or any other agent, is responsible for what the Security Council sanctions have wrought. Even if some intervening causes have contributed to this human tragedy in Iraq, the UN would be criminally responsible for failing to rush needed food and medicine to a dying people its acts placed in harms way. Anyone who would justify sanctions killing hundreds of people daily over a period of nine years based on a fear that Iraq might develop weapons of mass destruction someday is dangerously murderous and puts the whole world at risk by its cowardice. The U.S. has initiated three-fourths of all economic sanctions and blockades since World War II. It can claim any country is developing and planning to use weapons of mass destruction. Iraq was proven utterly defenseless in 1991 at its time of maximum military power during the heaviest 42 day aerial bombardment in history the equivalent of 7½ Hiroshimas, on its own soil. It has been completely defenseless to U.S. air assaults ever since. It never used weapons of mass destruction while it was being destroyed. Any such uses it might have made in the past were few, minor compared to casualties in the war they were engaged in and insignificant compared to the mass destruction of civilian life by other countries, most notably the U.S. The U.S. assumes the power to destroy selected sites, or whole populations by lawlessly arguing it must kill today to avoid some highly improbable injury at some undetermined distant time in the future. The United States itself possesses most, and by far the most powerful, weapons of mass destruction on earth with incomparably superior numbers and delivery systems while continuing to spend more on military might than the rest of the Security Council combined. The U.S. used depleted uranium -- 900 tons remains in Iraqs environment -- fuel air explosives, cluster bombs and other prohibited weapons against Iraq and alone in the world has used atomic bombs against defenseless cities. It argues for the reign of brute force and preventive destruction of whole populations. The enforcement of the Security Council sanctions against Iraq is genocide: Genocidemeans any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy in whole or in art, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such. (b) Causing serious bodily, or mental harm to members of the group; (c) Deliberately inflicting on a group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; Art.II, Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. Now, in the last year of the millennium, the United Nations has permitted the United States to wage war at its will abandoning its mandate to end the scourge of war and failing to do its duty to prevent war with barely a whimper. The UN let the U.S. led NATO into committing criminal aerial and missile assaults on a
[CTRL] CIA Drug Evidence sought by Congress for hearings on CIA Inspector General's Report Volume 2
-Caveat Lector- This means that the CIA Inspector General's Report, Volume 2, will be augmented by Congress with awaited evidence documents, from former Los Angeles Police Department narcotics investigative officer Michael Ruppert, to further substantiation of the IG's claims of CIA complicity in the illegal drug trade which Ruppert says he can prove is still ongoing, on an enormous scale, especially targeting inner city black populations to foster drug and crime problems including the crack cocaine epidemic to destroy and imprision the black community, and others, to fund covert guerrilla and police operations, and to launder money for political campaigns and low cost corporate loans to feed the Wall Street merger mania and keep stock market profit-taking at artificially high levels. The lawsuit referred to below is the 15MAR99 (Ides of March) filed class action suit for actual and punitive damages against the CIA and Dept of Justice for CIA's liability for the financial losses of those communities, lead by citizens of South Central Los Angeles and Oakland, California, and supported by recent unanimous resolution of the Oakland City Council under the guidance of the former California Governor and United States Presidential Candidate, Oakland Mayor Jerry Brown. This information conclusively links both Presidents Bush and Clinton, with many other high US government officials, to this illicit CIA protected drug trade (estimated at 80% of overall illicit drug market and over $200 billion per year), as well as proof of suppressed videotaped evidence from a 1985 DEA sting in which undercover officers sold multiple kilograms of cocaine to Jeb and George W. Bush. Mike has been on hundreds of radio stations across the nation this week discussing these matters which are summarized and documented on his website http://www.copvcia.com and detailed in his monthly hardcopy newsletter, From The Wilderness, subscriptions to which (and back issues) are available via his website and which serve as his undervalued means of earning a living while, at the peril of his life, he is doing his important ongoing factfinding and investigative journalism, lecturing and teaching on these and related survival issue and forgiveness messages which are all now uniting in the prayer for "Global Peace Now!" as a universal human resolve, and which will be carried by next year's Global Peace Walk http://www.globalpeacenow.org from San Francisco's UN Peace Memorial Building (January 15th, Martin Luther King birthday) to the Washington Monument in DC, (Columbus Day) and ending in New York City for October 24, 2000, with a United Nations 55th anniversary appeal for a worldwide Global Peace Zone2000 and US election of only candidates in Y2000 who endorse the Global Peace Platform outlining survival issue solutions.

In my response to their letter, published in the June issue of FTW, which indicated that they intended to close out the investigation, I told them that in the absence of both an open and public hearing and a full examination of all the material, the committee had not fulfilled its obligations. In the letter received today HPSCI indicated that they were offering to pay for the copying and mailing expenses. What this means is that we - through the efforts of Bill Simpich and Katya Komisaruk - have effectively prevented HPSCI from closing out this issue before the 2000 campaign gets underway. I intend to comply with the Committee's request, in an expeditious fashion, as soon as I determine that the Committee doesn't intend to bankrupt me over the expense and keep me waiting for months for reimbursement.

-Caveat Lector- I happened to see most of the program tonight (WED25AUG) on MSNBC by Geraldo Rivera about the various factors of the Drug War and I wanted to congratulate him, NBC, and MSNBC for this fine program and its insightful, compassionate, considerate, and critical review of the various issues involved. I am not sure I have the right email address for Geraldo so I hope you can forward this to him and your other news programs assignment editors for an important new breaking story on this issue. May I suggest that the next step in expanding the coverage on this very important topic is to do a piece on the CIA involvement in protecting the bulk of the drug trade as acknowledged for its period covered by the still to be released CIA IG report volume2 being held quietly in Congress because it implicates major political figures in both parties, including, according to the documentation of former LAPD narcotics officer and now editor of From The Wilderness newsletter Michael Ruppert, both President Clinton and former President Bush, in this still ongoing 50year+ apparently "official rogue" government/criminal campaign to fund covert operations and provide low cost laundered capital to prop up the stock market and political campaigns while targeting African American populations as is the subject of pending class action lawsuit filed 15MAR99 (Ides of March) against CIA and DoJ by South Central Los Angeles and Oakland California residents with the support of a unanimous resolution of Oakland City Council (former CA Governor and US Presidential candidate Jerry Brown, Mayor). This story is about to break mainstream big time as Ruppert has been on many radio stations in the last few days in part because of videotape evidence that he is aware of regarding a DEA sting operation in 1985 that recorded multi-kilo cocaine buy by George W. Bush and his brother Jeb. I hope that NBC/MSNBC will get a scoop on this via your outlets and contact Ruppert who lives in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles.

-Caveat Lector- "NewsHawk Inc." wrote: 8.19.99 Electromagnetic HAARP Technology Can Generate Earthquakes The U.S. Navy's top-secret, massive, global HAARP project has a long list of objectives, agendas, goals and targets. This massive project includes among it's top-secret agendas the triggering of SEISMIC DISTURBANCES. In view of this and also in view of what happened in Turkey last week, we present here a NewsHawk article written in May, 1998 on the many astonishing covert agendas of the HAARP project. ELF detectors did in fact pick up some very unusual, anomalous electromagnetic signals emanating form the region where the 7.4 quake struck Turkey, which could indicate "tampering" with earth's geomagnetics by HAARP and/or similar/related technologies. Such tampering, as our report below discusses, could in turn indicate that HAARP transmissions may have been deliberately targeted to trigger a quake in this seismically highly sensitive, unstable area. John Quinn/NewsHawk Inc. HAARP'S COVERT AGENDAS THE BIG PICTURE Copyright 1998 John A. Quinn/NewsHawk Inc. All rights reserved. HAARP--High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program. HAARP--the kind angels will never strum. HAARP--the futuristic nightmare project which is currently in operation, researching a wide variety of effects and phenomena, as well as possible uses and applications for such, resulting from beaming massively powerful radio signals into targeted regions of the ionosphere; a project which has given environmental activists, constitutionalists, airline pilots along with ionospheric physicists and other groups, such as normal, ordinary people definite cause for some serious concern. Contrary to information made public by the operators of HAARP, it is no longer a relatively small, preliminary venture limited to one (nevertheless extremely powerful) transmitter site in the remote Alaskan back country. Contrary to much of the official noise being generated regarding the supposed "benign" uses for this multi agenda'd operation, the internal intelligence/military documentation and a growing amount of supporting material shows that HAARP is in fact at this point fulfilling some highly secret and highly advanced functions; in fact, some very negative and completely objectionable functions. The acknowledged, publicized applications for potential applications of HAARP technology are primarily: Enhancement of or interference with communications, as well as development of new types of radio transmissions; "Investigation" of effects on weather patterns; Earth-penetrating tomography -- an X-ray like function which can reveal, for example, the existence of underground installations as well as oil or mineral deposits. Some of the other principal yet unpublicized goals are: Weapons-related (physical/psychological disablement) and mind control uses; Large scale tampering/modification of global weather patterns via ionospheric disturbances; "Pushing the envelope" in terms of pumping electromagnetic energy into the ionosphere, just to see what happens. It bears emphasizing here that any such references to HAARP being used for EM mind control come directly from numerous internal documents and repeated references therein to HAARP's capabilities as electromagnetic mind modification/manipulation technology and intentions to so implement HAARP. There are yet further agendas for HAARP even more covert than these, as this report will discuss. HAARP ON LONG ISLAND! Some very interesting information about HAARP has recently come light. To provide a background for some of this information, we go back to early last summer when Brookhaven National Laboratories on Long Island underwent a significant and far reaching change of directorship, and subsequently a change of direction and focus. The changes at Brookhaven, one of the first National Laboratories established, received coverage even in the national news media. Brookhaven Labs has been repeatedly named as a major player in other clandestine and generally malignant and malevolent operations on Long Island--such as the Montauk Project and many related activities; among other well-known secrets are the particle accelerators underlying much of the area used in so many covert projects, which undoubtedly also have negative environmental and health consequences. Subsequent to these well-publicized but never adequately explained changes at Brookhaven Labs last year, several of the Navy's key HAARP personnel are now stationed at BNL. No public mention has been made of this by Brookhaven, the Navy, nor anyone else. Latest reports show that the Navy has more or less completely taken over administration and operation of HAARP and that the Air Force is no longer involved in any

-Caveat Lector- FWD: [is this really what we are up against? strategy of the "enemy"?]-dcw http://www.geocities.com/Area51/9357/silent.html Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars Top Secret Confidential Preface Conspiracy theories are nothing new to history. Plots to kill Caesar and overthrow Rome abounded, for instance. However, it is seldom that concrete clues to such plots come to light, and are generally known. The document you are about to read is real. It is no forgery, as alleged of "The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion." or actual forgeries such as those of Anne Frank, or (more recently) Hitler's diary. "TOP SECRET: Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars, An introductory Programming Manual" was uncovered quite by accident on July 7th, 1986 when an employee of Boeing Aircraft Co. purchased a surplus IBM copier for scrap parts at a sale, and discovered inside details of a plan, hatched in embryonic days of the "Cold War" which called for control of the masses through manipulation of Industry, peoples' pastimes, education and political learning's. It called for a quite revolution, putting brother against brother, and diverting the public's attention from what is really going on. For all intents and purposes, this document has "come to pass," much as Henry Ford, Sr. said the Protocols (regardless of their veracity) applied to the events of his day. It is reprinted in its virgin form, with diagrams, as a touch of reality. {Note; I removed the diagrams for reasons of ease of getting the information onto the internet.} It is heavy reading, but it will (as it well should) spur you to read further, keep your eyes and ears open, and sound an alarm in Zion, for though she presently dwells with Babylon's daughter (Micah 4), her redemption draweth nigh.

Furthermore, whenever any person or group of persons in a position of great power, and without the full knowledge and consent of the public, uses such knowledge and methodology for economic conquest -- must be understood that a state of domestic warfare exists between said person or group of persons and the public. The solution of today's problems requires an approach which is ruthlessly candid, with no agonizing over religious, moral, or cultural values. You have qualified for this project because of your ability to look at human society with cold objectivity, and yet analyze and discuss your observations and conclusions with others of similar intellectual capacity without a lose of discretion or humility. Such virtues are exercised in your own best interest. Do not deviate from them. WELCOME ABOARD This publication marks the 25th anniversary of the Third World War, called the "Quite War", being conducted using subjective biological warfare, fought with 'silent weapons'. This book contains an introductory description of this war, its strategies, and its weaponry. May 1979 #74-1120 HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION Silent weapon technology has evolved from Operations Research (O.R.), a strategic and tactical methodology developed under the military management in England during World War II. The original purpose of Operations Research was to study the strategic and tactical problems of air and land defense with the objective of effective use of limited military resources against foreign enemies (i.e. logistics). It was
Re: [CTRL] [MC] A response to NSA Tech:mind control article
-Caveat Lector- Thanks for your feedback on this. This was my reason for posting this response from Gene was to get some feedback from those on MC-list who understand this issue more than I do regarding the veracity of the information presented. It certainly was not my intent to get anyone upset nor to be "kicked off" the list. This NSA document seems like a very important one to attempt to authenticate. What do you mean by posting a flame to a list member? All I am trying to do is get to the truth of the matter here. Is anyone else on this list also interested in the same thing? Who is trying to control whose mind here? Interesting can of worms opened by conflicting viewpoints on NSA document veracity. This document posted by Wes Thomas on his website contains extremely extraordinary claims of covert government agency involvement in deeply controlling the minds of the American populace with technologies and methods not normally believable to exist. Since extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and that document is prepared to look like some kind of official NSA document even though it changes to first person accounts within it, I think it is more than reasonable to question the veracity of it and open this to discussion on any list. I do not know either Wes Thomas or Gene Johnson personally and have not been following the "politics" of their disagreements on Wes' "mind-control" list, so his unsubbing me from that list is off the wall and out of the blue to me. What is he hiding here? Perhaps Wes will understand he made a mistake and will reverse his arbitrary decision or perhaps someone else will understand and post this to mc list for members' feedback, and/or others will post this query for clarification to other appropriate lists or newsgroups.

There is no rule against doing that. Further I have done detail responses to all of the Will Filer type of disinformation the Wes has posted. Wes has never responded to the MC list about the flaws that I have politely pointed out. Privately, Wes has written me saying that he didn't feel competent to respond to my critiques. Yet Wes has used the same alleged government defector ploy repeatedly, citing phone interviews, person in danger,etc. Several well-informed scientists who also understand the MC-L operation and believe it to be highly unethical, if not illegal, are in close contact with me. Since I am one of the several persons that have been libeled, I am being urged to pursue a suit. I and others honestly feel that Wes/Amara has not been in very good 'emotional' condition for some weeks. I wondered if you might have suspected that or whether you had some knowledge about that. I want the unethical operations to end, but I have some feeling for the difficulty of the transsexual pathway, and I wish Wes/Amara would take the appropriate actions voluntarily. I respect the *techweek* work of Amara, and I feel everyone has a lot of goodness potential. Wes could do a service to many of the suffering persons by telling the truth about what is really known and how delusional thinking is subtly reinforced. Goodness knows the US socio-cultural situation is bad enough without creating unnecessary suffering and anger among good, sensitive, and sometimes traumatized persons.

NSA Initiated Execution to Cover-up in Music: Curt Cobain of the musical group "Nirvana" was another victim of NSA brainwashing and was terminated by NSA. Cobain had started writing clues to the NSA activities into his music to communicate it to his music followers. He referred in music to the NSA as the "Friends inside his head". Once the NSA puts on the highest level of brainwashing pain, the subject expires quickly. Cobain used heroin to numb and otherwise slow the effect of the brainwashing. Musical references of NSA Technology: Talking Heads; a music group popular in the eighties, wrote a song explaining the scientific process of the NSA's brainwashing technology in a song called "Wild Wild Life". The song gave an example of what the audible transmission sounded like at the end of the song (like a tape on fast forward). They mentioned in the song that "They (NSA) talk so fast " and that the musical group had spent "All their time and money " unsuccessfully trying to find a place that the NSA would not be able to harass them. The Talking Heads exposed the technology, gave an example of what it sounds like, scenarios of how the NSA might select you for the brainwashing, and the scope of the electronic surveillance system.

From: jean hudon [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Jean Hudon [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: The Pentagon Papers of Y2K about the coming World Crisis - you may forward thisto your local media Date: Saturday, August 21, 1999 1:36 AM Hello again everyone Yesterday I read this astounding US Navy report below about how badly many US cities will fare during the coming Y2K Crisis -- not to mention most of the rest of the world -- and I thought to myself that this wouldn't find its way into the news like so many other Internet-circulated reports about this unreported reality in the mainstream media -- which have been eerily silent on this issue this summer as you may have noticed. Well I was wrong. At least one major TV network -- on CTV evening news - in Canada reported it. Now it remains to be seen if the other newsmedia will wake up and just do their job... I don't want to sound like a prophet of doom, but I firmly believe this is going to be a major test of people's resilience and ability to cooperate in the face of utter adversity - and in the midst of winter here in the Northern hemisphere. This planetary technological crash down will burst open the gates of massive changes and it can turn out real bad of real good depending on how we each react and adapt to it all - and depending on how well-prepared we are or not. For sure, the Zeus-like elite who decreed that this problem would occur -- most likely the Y2K bug has been deliberately planned back in the mid 80's when a computer expert warned the US authorities about the consequences of this computer mis-conceived programming shortfall and then the FBI decided that nothing would be done about it (according to the Time Magazine) and that was it -- and they would very much like massive chaos and rioting and looting to ensue to enable them to come forward like "saviours" with the martial law and a cunning plan to implant a micro-chip into the hand of everyone on Earth to track and monitor each of us and impose their complete domination and enslaving of the world population - more on this issue real soon. But!... if it turns out that people remain calm and generously help each others instead (as occured everywhere in Quebec during the month-long electricity failure following the major Ice storm a couple years ago that tore down thousands of utility poles and electric transmission lines) and don't fall into the trap of the elite-trained agents provocateurs who will certainly attempt to stir troubles, like rioting and looting, to "justify" the military take-over of all US urban centers and the suspension of all normal rules of law through the declaration of the martial law, then their plans will fail and we will all remain free. And since it is time to bring this Y2K issue back to the forefront, I'll soon send you the material I had prepared months ago on this. But first let's begin with this breaking news...

War against drugs. Used to identify investments that have high yield to support clandestine operations. Used to direct field agents... The following was sent to me by Will Filer [EMAIL PROTECTED] on July 27, 1999. It offers a new explanation for government mind control. Thank you for sending me this post. I responded to it when it first came out. Will Filer is a pseudonym for Dick Farley and several other contributors to disinformation in the UFO, alien presence, and mindcontrol domains. He was associated with the Brother Blue Lodge web site that was loaded with the most blatant propaganda I have seen, including the Cathy O'Brian 'sex robot' disinformation farce. Cloudrider is Brother Farley's Net handle. He has no background in the hard sciences, and has been jealously harassing me and other scientists since we have been posting in the MC domain. The trick to the type of propaganda in the NSA-info post is to mix a few facts, a few easy to believe items, and then to insert fear-evoking infeasible sci-fi type propositions. Most lay persons have an extremely difficult time discriminating the facts from the disinformation. Much of this type of activity is designed to put pressure on the government to not classify defense-related projects. I am for openness WORLDWIDE, but until that can be brought about it is in your and my interests as US citizens not to have any high-tech device technology fall into rogue and terrorist hands. Simultaneously, we must be hypervigilant toward an use of devices on our fellow US citizens. Part of hypervigilance is to be able to discriminate what are symptoms of brain system dysregulation that occur from stress, sleep loss, mid-life crises, drug abuse, etc. from what are symptoms of non-lethal weapons device use on humans. I am working 14 hour days seven days/week on that effort with regular harassment and attacks from persons that don't appear to be able to understand the importance of that type of information or have other agendas, some of which are unethical at best, and perhaps even criminal. I have discovered that some persons operating Net groups in the mindcontrol domain are encouraging persons that they know are suffering from mental illness to protest to the government as persons being subjected to non-lethal weapons device. Further, some of these Net operators actively dissuade these persons from seeking medical treatment that could likely reduce their suffering and chronic brain damage. I see that behavior as highly unethical. Will has stated to me that he is a former consultant to the U.S. National Security Agency and asked me to post this information immediately. He also believes he is in immediate danger because of this information. This type of disinformation is posted to MC-L about every 6 months. The previous one of this type that was similar was posted last New Years Eve . Actually, no consultant to the NSA would have system level information of this simulated type in the first place, David. Thomas and Rense hype this stuff regularly in a more subtle manner than a Limbaugh or a Liddy might do, for example. Hi tech disinformation draws on well written science fiction and often makes allusion to that genre. With the proliferation of Hollywood special effects ladened movies and futuristic TV sci-fi dramas about robots, cyborg, brain implants, even normally thoughtful persons are subject to disinformation operations. Also, there is a general tendency of scientific illiteracy in the US population that adds to the susceptibility. If there are any particular techniques mentioned in the Will Filer document that seem likely to be in functional operation to you or others you know, I would be more that pleased to present my view. There is so much disinformation on the Net now that I am getting much practice. It is not hard for paid professional and retired political operatives to overwhelm the Net groups with disinformation and propaganda. For an interesting example, suppose that you were to post that YOU, DCW are the reembodied Second Coming of the Christ ready to emerge as a millennium Global Savior. Challenge me to prove you are not. Would not that be an endless task!! You could say that you had implants from all of the Adepts and Masters of the Ages. You could speak of the enlightenment epiphanies of your youth and of you contacts with Masters from other lands. You could claim a secret Remote Viewing implant that allows for multiplex global envisioning. Since you have some visionary skills already, a few wise acts of knowledge would

It's not real difficult." (c) COPYRIGHT 1999, MICHAEL C. RUPPERT and FROM THE WILDERNESS Publications. All Rights Reserved. - STORIES ON GEORGE W. BUSH DRUG USE MAY HAVE ORIGINATED WITH NEWSLETTER PUBLISHED BY FORMER LAPD INVESTIGATOR AND ANTI-CIA ACTIVIST "FROM THE WILDERNESS" JULY ISSUE REPORTED TERRY REED'S DESCRIPTIONS OF 1985 DEA DRUG STING BY BARRY SEAL WHICH FILMED BUSH BROTHERS PICKING UP MULTIPLE KILOS OF COCAINE by Michael C. Ruppert Los Angeles - August 19, 1999 1830hrs - In the July 28 issue of "From The Wilderness" I reported on recent statements made in Los Angeles by author Terry Reed concerning his participation in a 1985 DEA drug sting with legendary drug smuggler Barry Seal. In that DEA operation, set up after receiving information from an FBI informant placed close to the highest levels of the Medellin cartel, George W. and Jeb Bush were videotaped at Tamiami airport outside of Miami. They arrived on the Bush family King Air from Texas, presumably piloted by George W., to pick up two kilos of cocaine which was delivered for the Bushes by Seal after flying from the Intermountain Regional airport located at Mena Arkansas. Reed was the unwitting co-pilot. At the time the sting was arranged the "buyers" of the cocaine were unknown. As documented in previous issues of "From The Wilderness", President George Bush went to great lengths to eradicate top leaders of the Medellin Cartel and lent support to efforts which ultimately killed Medellin founders Pablo Escobar and Jorge Ochoa and subsequently saw co-founder Carlos Lehder and affiliate Manuel Noriega sentenced to life prison terms. George Bush also ordered the 1989 invasion of Panama which toppled Noriega and replaced many Medellin allied bankers with political and financial leadership more closely allied with the rival Cali Cartel. As indicated in Reed's best selling book 1995 "Compromised" both Barry Seal and the Medellin Cartel believed that they had a blackmail lock on the Bush family, especially the sons. Coincidentally, Carlos Lehder was released from prison in 1996 in a move which I personally suspect was connected to the leaking of critical information regarding CIA cocaine operations connected to the elder Bush during the Contra era. Key information which sparked the San Jose Mercury News "Dark Alliance" stories by Pulitzer Prize winner (and now very vindicated) Gary Webb was provided to Webb by Coral Marie Baca. Baca is the wife of Carlos Lehder and now resides with him in the Bahamas where she recently delivered a son to the cartel founder who is reportedly "back in business" according to several sources. Coincidentally, the sentence of Medellin ally Manuel Noriega has also been recently reduced and sources indicate he may be out of prison before Bill Clinton leaves office. At the time he made his public statements Reed indicated that he had both the tail number of the Bush Aircraft and the DEA (NADDIS) file number of the investigation at his home in Missouri. He also said, as I well know from LAPD experience, that once the tape had been logged in and a number issued, it cannot easily disappear from law enforcement records. Reed is currently in Los Angeles working on a feature film project based upon "Compromised." What made Reed's story so compelling to me was that he and I both shared the long-term friendship of retired Army CID investigator Bill McCoy. McCoy had been almost a ubiquitous feature in some of the greatest CIA intelligence related investigations of the last fifteen years including the Cristic Institute case, the theft of PROMIS software from Washington, DC's INSLAW corporation, the murder of investigative journalist Danny Casolaro, Mena Airport and several others. I visited the home of Bill McCoy in Fairfax, Virginia on many occasions and I recall him describing to me in 1995 how he too had spoken with the FBI agent/informant in the case, Darlene "N". McCoy told me that he had spoken to Darlene several times and that she had advised him of videotaped evidence which would sink the Bushes if either one of them (Jeb or George W) attempted to run for the White House. I am aware if the full name of this informant who, to my understanding was not present in Florida when the incident occurred. I have reached out through a mutual friend to her but am not releasing her full name until I hear from her. Bill McCoy died, under what I consider to be very suspicious circumstances, nearly two years ago. I miss him. News stories in the major media concerning possible drug use by Presidential front-runner George W. Bush began surfacing this week after the Bush juggernaut bulldozed the field in Iowa. My story on the DEA operation was mailed to my paying subscribers approximately two weeks earlier.
[CTRL] Intro: Catherine Austin Fitts
-Caveat Lector- This post is to ask for your networking help to further the research of a former (fired) Assistant Secretary of Housing in the Bush Administration and investment banker for HUD in the Clinton Administration, and now investigative journalist, who, as a result of being a "whistle blower", believes that she has been the target of covert non-lethal weaponry to attempt to dissuade her efforts to bring out the truth of her experiences and documented research related to an apparently hidden economic agenda behind an "ethnic cleansing in America" being implemented to benefit megabuckaneers with the complicity of rogue elements associated with the US government. The latter part of this post details her specific areas of inquiry, experiences and reasoning behind her interest in learning all that she can about non-lethal weapons programs. Because the issues involved in this case overlap so many different areas of social activism, I am posting this message to several applicable email group lists for their members' consideration and bcc to a number of individuals and national media outlets who may be able to help with this request and also benefit from related details of this story. Since she is not subscribed (as yet) to any of these lists but one, please respond directly to Catherine Austin Fitts [EMAIL PROTECTED] who is President of Solari, Inc., and formerly head of The Hamilton Securities Group and Managing Director and member of the Board of Dillon, Read Co. She is currently also a Contributing Editor to the monthly From The Wilderness Newsletter http://www.copvcia.com Her this month's upcoming article is entitled "Edgewood Technology Services: How I lost $100 Million Figuring Out Who Makes Money Making Sure the Popsicle Index Does Not Go Up", where the Popsicle Index discussed in her article in last month's issue is "the % of people in a community who believe that a child can leave their home, go to the nearest place to buy a Popsicle and come home alone safely". That issue also had her article on "The Ultimate New Business Cold Call" discussing the recent visit (reported widely by Associated Press) of the New York Stock Exchange Chairman, Richard Grasso, to the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Columbia (FARC), to (she claims) make an appeal to ensure the liquidity of the NYSE which is sufficiently dependent on high margin cocaine profits that her conclusion was "Chairman Grasso's trip says to me that organized crime dollars have replaced petrodollars as the American financial system's number one circulatory disease and our addiction to drug profits is increasing our risk of a financial heart attack". Her blockbuster story in the May issue, "HUD Story of 'Ethnic Cleansing' Pattern in American Inner Cities May Have Roots in American Policy Dating To The Sixties" indicated that the crack cocaine epidemic in Los Angeles, now conclusively tied to CIA operations that protected drug shipments into the city, might have been parts of a government-sanctioned plan to force minorities to default on mortgages and flee inner cities so that huge profits could be generated by reselling abandoned homes. From The Wilderness has since obtained documents and other investigative leads which indicate that -- after the 1967 Detroit riots -- it became the official policy of the US government, on advice of officials from the CIA, the military and major defense contractors, to find ways to force minorities to leave the inner cities. According to the documents, cohesive concentrations of minorities were thought to be too great a political and economic threat to the government. The leads obtained include evidence of at least one murder of a government official to conceal this plan and evidence of its implementation in other cities than Los Angeles. Catherine will be reporting on her investigations and analysis of this material in this newsletter in the near future. -Original Message----- From: Catherine Austin Fitts [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: David Crockett Williams [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thursday, August 12, 1999 8:04 AM Subject: RE: non-lethal weapons David.
