This amazing account stunned many NewsMax.com readers.  But it shouldn't have.  Because the incident wouldn't be the first time air traffic control radio chatter indicated some sort of missile activity off Long Island's coast, causing controllers to alter flight routes. 
On April 26, 1999, TWA 800 researcher Michael Hull, writing for NewsMax.com, reported a similar episode that took place just months after TWA 800 went down:
TWA Flight 848 was to be involved in another incident four months after the downing of TWA Flight 800. On November 16, 1996, Pakistan International Airlines Flight 712 left Kennedy at 9:25 p.m. bound for Frankfurt. One of the pilots reported an orange light, which he described as a 'rocket,' coming from the left-hand side to the right-hand side of the airplane, and he stated that the 'rocket' had ascended through the aircraft's altitude. Boston apparently confirmed two unidentified blips on radar. The tapes were turned over to the FBI and NTSB since the object(s) rose directly out of Long Island Sound.
TWA Flight 884 (New York to Tel Aviv) was following close behind the Pakistani flight and was diverted by a controller. The government dismissed the incident as a meteorite observation, which leaves unanswered how the meteor ascended out of Long Island Sound.
In an even more frightening example, Hull documents a hair-raising close encounter between a missilelike object and an Aug. 9, 1997, Swissair flight bound for Zurich, Switzerland.
September 27, 1997 (Neue Zuricher Zeitung)
Swissair has revealed that an unidentified flying object almost collided with one of its planes over the United States last month. The captain and his co-pilot said an oblong and wingless object shot past at great speed -— only fifty metres away from their Boeing Seven-Four-Seven. The American air traffic authorities said it was probably a weather balloon.

A Swissair pilot reported his 747 jet was nearly hit by an unidentified flying object, possibly a missile, near the area off New York where a TWA airplane crashed in 1996, The Canadian Press has learned. Swissair Flight 127 was cruising at 23,000 feet on Aug. 9, 1997, when the pilot interrupted an address to passengers to report the near miss by a round white object, says a report by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board. 'Sir, I don't know what it was, but it just flew like a couple of hundred feet above us,' he radioed Boston air traffic control. 'I don't know if it was a rocket or whatever, but incredibly fast, opposite direction.' 'In the opposite direction?' asked the controller. 'Yes sir, and the time was 2107 [Greenwich Mean Time]. It was too fast to be an airplane.' (Tape was provided by John Bergman and obtained

Do Rights Come from the Constitution?
by Jacob G. Hornberger

It is commonly believed that the rights of the American people come
from the Constitution. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Throughout history, the standard belief was that people were
unconditionally subject to the commands of their government. If the king
ordered a person to leave his family to fight in a war thousands of miles
away, that person would have to obey. The king could control and regulate
both lives and property because he was  sovereign and supreme, and the
citizens, as subjects, were subordinate and inferior. When the king
commanded, people obeyed.
Gradually, people began questioning the notion of the king's having
unrestricted control over their lives and fortunes. For example, in 1215,
with Magna Carta, the king was forced to admit that his powers over the
citizenry were limited.
It was in 1776, however, with the publication of the Declaration of
Independence, that the historical concept of sovereignty got turned upside
down. Government wasn't sovereign and supreme, Jefferson declared to the
world. Individuals are. And government officials are subordinate and
inferior to the citizenry.
The Declaration emphasized that men have been endowed with certain
fundamental and inherent rights that preexist government. In other words,
man's rights don't come from the king or from any other government
official. Rights such as life, liberty, property, and the pursuit of
happiness exist independently of government, not because of government.
It also emphasized that the reason people call government into
existence is to protect the exercise of these rights. That is, in the
absence of government, antisocial people such as murderers, rapists, and
thieves would make life quite miserable for everyone else. Therefore,
government is needed to arrest, prosecute, and punish these types of
people.
What happens when government transgresses its rightful duty of
protection and becomes more destructive than what would be the case in the
absence of government? The Declaration tells us that it is the right of the
people to alter or abolish that government and to implement a new
government that is designed to protect, not destroy, the exercise of man's
natural or God-given rights.
The quandary, of course, that our Founders faced was whether it was
possible to bring a government into existence that would remain limited to
an inferior and subordinate role rather than attempt to assume the more
traditional sovereign and supreme role.
In 1787, the Founders attempted to solve the problem by writing a
Constitution that called the federal government into existence. The result
was historically significant: The Constitution made it clear that this
government, unlike others in history, would not be one of unlimited powers.
Instead, by the express terms of the Constitution itself, the federal
government would be one of limited powers--limited to those enumerated in
Article 1, Section 10 of the Constitution.
Thus the correct question is not "What rights does the Constitution
give to the American people?" but rather "What powers does the Constitution
grant to the government?" If a certain power is not enumerated, the
government is not permitted to exercise it.
Not trusting government officials, however--even democratically
elected ones--the American people ensured the passage of the first 10
amendments to the Constitution. These should more appropriately have been
called the "Bill of Prohibitions" than the Bill of Rights. Why? Because a
careful examination reveals that they are express restrictions on
government powers rather than a grant of rights to the citizenry.
Some people argued that a Bill of Prohibitions was unnecessary
because government's powers were already limited to those enumerated in the
Constitution itself. Since the government has not been given the power to
regulate speech, for example, there was no reason to have an express
prohibition against the regulation of speech.
Fearful, however, of the propensity of government to move toward
dominance and control, the people felt safer with express restrictions on
the power to interfere with rights that they believed were of the utmost
importance. Playing it safe, they included the Ninth Amendment: "The
enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed
to deny or disparage others retained by the people."
So the next time someone refers to your "constitutional rights,"
remind him that people's rights don't come from the Constitution. And if
you really want to stimulate thinking, ask him whether he believes that
today the federal government is destructive of

  (The Uncensored National News)

Bonacci"s Story--

One of the most heart-rendering parts of the court transcript is the
testimony of Paul A. Bonacci, the mind-control victim survivor, on whose
behalf DeCamp sued Lawrence E. King.

Bonacci testified that King took him on many trips to Washington, D.C.,
Kansas City, Chicago, Minnesota and Los Angeles, where he prostituted the
kidnapped and drugged youngster to the rich and famous -- and depraved.

Bonacci said that "one person I'm not afraid to talk about because Larry
King always said him and this guy were on opposite ends of the field because
this guy was a Democrat and Larry King was a Republican ...  And this guy --
every time I see him on TV, my wife knows my hatred for him ...  His name is
Barney Frank."

When asked if he had "relationships" with him, Bonacci replied, "In
Washington, D.C.
And also I was sent to a house, I believe it was in Massachusetts in Boston
where I believe it was his house because there's pictures on the wall with
him and different people and stuff, that he had met I guess, but it was in
his basement."

Suffering from Multiple Personality Disorder, currently called
Dissassociative Identity Disorder (DID), Bonacci testified that as one of
his alters called Wesley, he lured Johnny Gosch into the van when he was
kidnapped.

"I went up to him, asked him [Gosch] a question," said Bonacci.  "At that
point he was close enough to the car where Tony [another kidnapper] had
pulled up in the van and they pushed him in the car and they had a rag with
chloroform in the bag that they had us stick over his face.  And then put it
back in the bag after he was out ...  We drove several miles ... we met up
with a station wagon and a van several times".

After switching vehicles and changing direction, the kidnapping of Johnny
Gosch was over.

[CTRL] What Made Our Revolution Different? [Don Feder]

1999-07-05 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

"What Made Our Revolution Different?"
by Don Feder - Jewish World Review

After 223 years -- and William J. Clinton notwithstanding -- America is
still the most successful experiment going.

Among other things, the American revolution demonstrated that majorities are
frequently wrong, a fact worth recalling in an age of focus-group worship.

Historians tell us that the colonists were evenly divided in favor of,
against and ambivalent toward independence. If Gallup had been around in
1776, we'd be driving on the wrong side of the road and obsessing about the
royal family.

Unlike all men, all revolutions are not created equal. What makes ours
unique?

There were three revolutions that profoundly influenced the course of human
events: the American, French and Russian. The first transformed the world;
the latter deformed it.

The best revolutions are made by elites -- men of property and learning with
a sense of service. The French and Russian revolutions soon fell into the
hands of bloody-minded fanatics. Jacobins and Bolsheviks -- these are not
names that inspire confidence.

America's was a revolution of words (albeit defended by the sword),
epitomized by the Declaration of Independence and Constitution, and lesser
works like "The Federalist Papers" and "Common Sense."

It wasn't ink that flowed in the streets of Paris and St. Petersburg. If our
revolutionary era was symbolized by a quill pen, theirs would best be
represented by Madame la Guillotine and a Cheka firing squad.

Those who make revolution reluctantly do so most wisely.

With a few exceptions, the Founding Fathers came to accept the necessity of
a break with the mother country late in the game. Even after the Intolerable
Acts, Lexington, Concord and Bunker Hill, it took months of debate to get a
resolution of independence through the Second Continental Congress.

Revolutions with narrow goals -- those that eschew grand utopian visions and
settle for modest improvement of the human condition -- work best. Madison,
Adams and their associates didn't aim to overhaul society or remake human
nature. They were wise enough to understand that, like inalienable rights,
our nature is endowed by the Creator.

Mere mortals, and the Founders never pretended to be more, understand they
are incapable of giving people new hearts.

The most Founding Fathers aspired to was an orderly society, governed justly
(where state interference in human affairs is minimum), where property
rights are respected and individuals can work, play and pray pretty much as
they choose.

Marat and Robespierre, Lenin and Trotsky saw humanity as clay on the
potter's wheel. The Paris commune, the Terror, collective farms, purge
trials and gulags all were ghastly attempts to fashion a new Eden.

If that weren't enough, French and Russian radicals felt compelled to export
their glorious revolutions, on the point of a bayonet, to those who fiercely
resisted the favor.

By contrast, the generation of 1776 said to the world: "Well, here it is. We
wish you well. Look to us for inspiration, not liberation." The most-quoted
line from Washington's farewell address is his warning about entangling
alliances.

Finally, the American revolution had a spiritual foundation. The Declaration
of Independence appealed to "the Supreme Judge of the World" and affirmed
the colonists "firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence."

The French and Russian revolutions were unalterably opposed not just to
religious expression but to the very idea of a power above the party or
state. Jacobins attacked the Catholic Church, murdered clerics and erected a
Goddess of Reason. The communists made atheism an official state dogma.
Heaven distributed its blessings -- and maledictions -- accordingly.

Consider the aftermath of the three revolutions.

Both communism and fascism were forged in the fires of revolutionary France.
The revolution of 1789 led directly to Napoleon, a resurrection of the
monarchy, a second empire and a series of unstable republics, culminating in
 a nation known principally for its cuisine.

Russia suffered 70 years under Bolshevism, with untold millions dead, and
spread its blight to half of Europe.

America shaped the 20th century, created the greatest industrial engine in
history and saved humanity from the twin totalitarian And the future? That
depends on how well we recall the lessons of our revolution and what
distinguishes it from those that failed.

[CTRL] The Buchanan Phenomenon...[a must must must, wow!]

1999-07-05 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

There have been few political candidates since the advent of broadcast media
who have had the polarizing effects on the American Electorate as had
Patrick J. Buchanan during both his 1992 and 1996 attempts at garnering the
presidential nomination for the Republican Party.

To his supporters, Pat Buchanan personified conviction and
principle...traits more attributable to the increasingly rare statesman than
the ever-plentiful politician who routinely runs out in front of an issue
instead of forging its path.

To his detractors, Buchanan represented a vociferous, nationally-prominent
threat to the continuum of Political Correctness which has gained momentum
in silencing the voices of morality and ethics on issues which had gained
their societal assimilation on the well-greased skids on the deafening
guilt-imposed silence of "tolerance" and other liberally-developed battle
weapons.

Love him or loathe him, the presidential campaign of one Patrick J. Buchanan
revealed much more about the Two-Party System, about the American
Electorate, about the Establishment Party Leadership of both the Republicans
and the Democrats than most people realize.

And in doing so, the poker-faces so successfully maintained for decades by
the Establishment Leaderships of both parties have been exposed. The
traditional alignments of "Republican" vs. "Democrat" have been uncovered
for the false-dichotomy of ideological "conservatism" vs. "liberalism" of
which they have historically been characterized.

Indeed, "Good" vs." Bad" is no longer a matter of Right vs. Left...of
Republican vs. Democrat. In sum, it is a matter of "Right" vs. "Wrong".

And while the Republicans openly look to advance the interests of a
voracious Globalist Wall Street Agenda which threatens the livelihoods of
hardworking Rank-and-File Americans, and the Democrats do nothing to impede
them from assaulting this long-held base constituency...and while the
Democrats have paraded an agenda of social perversities which have insulted
the traditional ethics and values of Social Conservatives, and the
Republicans do nothing to impede them from making huge advances in promoting
a societal underculture...the traditional lines of political affiliation for
pursuing one's impassioned interests can no longer be relied upon.

No, "Good" vs. "Bad" is no longer "Party A" vs. "Party B".

Begin the dismantling process of the Two-Party shell game.

Our Mission

  1. Exposing the Modern day money changers - The Federal Reserve Bank
( FED ) is America's current cancer. Created by corrupt politicians on
December 23, 1913, the Federal Reserve Act gave the awesome power of
printing America's medium of exchange to European Financiers. The FED is not
Federal and there are no Reserves, except the pockets of the American
taxpayers. Simply, these bankers create money out of thin air and charge
interest ! click here
[Billions for the Bankers, Debts for the People
http://www.afn.org/~govern/pa10005.html]

The battle for control of America's money has been waged since the country's
founding. In 1913, the final blow to America's destruction was delivered.
The world's money changers have created an illusion of prosperity while
bankrupting and destroying our nation.

Think of the many wars the American military has had since 1913 (WW1, WW2,
Korea, Vietnam and various United Nations and Nato "so-called" peacekeeping
operations.) Perpetual war for perpetual peace! Guess who profits from these
Wars ?

Understanding the money machine explains why government grows and grows,
regardless of who's elected. It explains the police state, welfare state,
phony "no-win" wars, huge Corporate dominance etc. Get the picture !- a
money monopoly who have a vested interest in consolidating wealth and power.

The fifty sovereign states and Counties have been undermined by Executive
Orders signed in 1969 and 1972 creating ten Federal economic regions. State
and local governments are controlled with economic blackmail through Federal
Revenue sharing funds, dispensed by the Federal Office of Management and
Budget. Federal Regionalism click here.
[Regionalism Information http://members.aol.com/tfievent/]

We call for an end to this wicked money control. There is no Statute of
Limitations concerning Fraud !

2. The end to victimless crime laws -- At nations founding the government
was established to protect the lives and property of it's people. Today it's
main function is creating laws and making people "paper" criminals, for
revenue generation and enhancement of the state. Extortion is the name of
the game. Victimless crime laws are increasing to the point, where every
person could be considered a criminal, although there has been no violation
of another person's life, property or reputation. The cells of the prison
business are filling up because of such laws. America now has 1.9 million
people incarcerated, of which 62 % our victimless.

Revenue generation ( fee's, fines, permit's) is at the core of law
enforcement. The "drug war" is a police state mechanism. Documented evidence
of covert CIA drug importation's have been revealed from reputable sources
inside that agency. Cases of life sentences given to people who possess one
marijuana cigarette is a reality. Consider the term "Drug Czar" used for the
top Drug Enforcement Officer. Webster's dictionary defines "Czar" as a king
or emperor ; especially, one of the former emperors of Russia.

As more victimless crime laws are created, more prisons are built.
Violations of people's rights are a daily occurrence and considered "legal."
Asset forfeiture and seizure laws have created a theft device for financing
more intrusive programs. Electronic surveillance and information gathering
exists and is growing. This is done under the guise of protecting the
people - typical " wolves in sheep's clothing" approach.

Present and future gun laws are dangering the right of the people to resist
the oppression. Remember, a honest, people-serving government has no reason
to disarm it's people, only corrupt, tyrannical governments do. The U.S.
Constitution states the people have a moral right to alter and abolish a
government thus described !We call for an end of all state-sponsored and
created crimes.

3. Restoring American Sovereignty -- Memberships with Elite financed world
organizations (World Bank, United Nations, World Trade Organization,
International Monetary Fund, NATO, etc) must be dissolved. The World bank
has a recorded history of establishing high interest rate loans to nations
and absorbing the nations resources.

United Nations resolutions were responsible for U.S. military involvement in
both the Korean and Vietnam conflicts. United Nations economic sanctions
have been responsible for starving millions of people worldwide and has
publicly called for worldwide gun control and abortion on demand.  The
tactic of playing one nation against another is used by these power elite
front organizations.  We call for an end to America's involvement with these
"so-called" world benefit organizations.

4. Understanding Economics, the Gauge of freedom -- During Feudalism ( 9th
through the 15th century ) the economic system in Europe was based on the
relation of lord to vassal, a result of land being held on condition of
homage and service. The current property tax system is a form of indentured

Osama Binladen
the new kid on the terrorist bloc
or a CIA created enemy?


UNSCOM CIA INVOLVEMENT?


During an interview with Exposure Magazine, press spokesman Mr. Stephen
Gangstead, U.S. Embassy in Canberra, would give no comment regarding the
recent allegations by Iraq's Foreign Affairs Minister Mr. Tarik Aziz, of CIA
involvement in weapons inspections throughout Iraq.

In response to the allegations that the strikes against Iraq are nothing
more than an international arms sale at the Iraqi people's expense, Mr.
Gangstead referred to Secretary of State, William Cohen's statement to the
press that he "would put his thirty year career in public service on the
line in defence of the allegations"; and that "the strikes were entirely in
the national interest of the United States".

No response was given (except a referral to the Pentagon and State
Department), regarding allegations that Australian weapons inspection head,
Mr. Richard Butler, is involved with U.S. Intelligence.

Based in Canberra, the Iraqi Ambassador Mr. Natik Alle (Charge de affair),
was more forthcoming with his information regarding the allegations.
Although Mr. Alle does not think that Mr. Butler is employed by the CIA or
England's MI6, he does feel that "Mr. Butler is just a tool" for the two
intelligence organisations.

Mr. Alle stated emphatically that all of the American members of the UNSCOM
weapons inspection team were agents for the CIA working under-cover and that
they were all guilty of spying on Iraq. "There is no argument at all that
the British members of the inspection teams are also agents of MI5 and MI6"
Mr. Alle said. He believes that "international arms dealers were also behind
the strikes, and that the United States is in serious financial trouble
mainly because of the unification of Europe's currencies; and that a war was
one way for the Americans to keep their debt under control".

Mr. Alle said that the arms dealers, the CIA and the American Administration
are working together to "create a war for profit to destabilise Iraq and the
entire region".

He did not know of any other countries who may be supplying weapons to rebel
groups in the region, but he certainly agreed that the U.S. is supplying
weapons to rebel groups to destroy Iraq internally. He believes that while
"the Clinton/ Lewinsky affair is keeping the world's attention away from
Iraq...the CIA, William Cohen and Madeleine Albright are busy carrying out
covert activities to overthrow the Iraqi government. One such incident was
the bombings of the U.S. Embassies in Kenya and Sudan".

When asked about Machiavellian politics, (i.e. if one does not have a
problem, then create one; so as to create a non-existent market), he replied
that "the scenario of 'Osama Binladen' (the new 'wanted' terrorist of the
West) just does not exist", and that "Binladen is a creation of the CIA".
Mr. Alle stated that "earlier this year, nobody knew Binladen, and that to
instigate hostilities in the region again, they needed a new man to blame -
so Binladen was created". He agreed that diplomatic relations must remain
open during crisis situations, referring back to the Iraq/Iran war...
"during eight years of war between our two countries, both of us (Iraq/Iran)
kept our embassies in Teheran and Baghdad open".

[CTRL] What Is a Recess Appointment? [homosexual Hormel] (MUST READ!)

1999-07-04 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

What Is a Recess Appointment?
By Michael Brus
Posted Monday, June 14, 1999, at 4:48 p.m. PT
E-Mail This Article


Earlier this month, on the final day of a congressional recess, President
Clinton appointed James Hormel ambassador to Luxembourg without Senate
confirmation. The move prompted Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla., to remark,
"[Clinton] has shown contempt for Congress and the Constitution." Is Inhofe
right?

Clinton's act was certainly constitutional. A recess appointment is one of
the executive powers enumerated in the Constitution: "The President shall
have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the
Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the end of their next
Session" (II, 2, 3). The provision was originally created to fill vacancies
that actually occurred during a recess, but it has since morphed into an
all-purpose executive tool to counter Senate intransigence. President
Kennedy, for instance, appointed Thurgood Marshall to the bench during a
recess because he feared opposition from Southern senators. By the time
Marshall's nomination came before the Senate, that resistance had been
beaten back.

Presidents also use recess appointments to delay a confirmation vote until
after an election, when the nominee possesses the advantage of incumbency
and, ideally, faces a friendlier Congress. President Eisenhower appointed
three justices during recesses: Earl Warren, William Brennan, and Potter
Stewart. All three occurred immediately before an election, and all were
confirmed the following spring by a new Congress.

Hormel, an heir to the meat-packing family and a San Francisco-area
philanthropist, is openly homosexual and a large contributor to the
Democratic party (over $200,000 in the '95-'96 election cycle). Conservative
religious groups have complained that he has refused to condemn the
Catholic-spoofing performance group Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
(Luxembourg is 99 percent Catholic.) His 1997 nomination passed the
Judiciary Committee, but Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott deferred to the
objections of several conservative senators, including Inhofe, by refusing
to bring the nomination to a vote on the floor. Hormel's appointment will
last until December 2000, several weeks before Clinton steps down.

Clinton has used the recess appointment relatively sparingly; his average of
nine per year is far lower than Reagan's 30 and Bush's 20. And the GOP
Congress has consented to at least one unconfirmed Clinton appointment: When
Drew Days stepped down as solicitor general in July 1996, the Senate let
Clinton appoint Walter Dellinger--already confirmed as an asssistant
attorney general--as "acting" solicitor general after Dellinger promised to
serve only one year.

But the Senate hasn't looked kindly on most unconfirmed appointments. When
Congress took a recess in 1997 and warned Clinton not to appoint
controversial NAACP lawyer Bill Lann Lee to the Justice Department while it
was gone, the president appointed Lee as an acting official instead of
making a recess appointment. And since acting officials must be employed by
the DOJ at the time of appointment,  Lee was first hired as deputy assistant
attorney general, which requires no confirmation, and later that day
promoted to the position for which he had been nominated -- assistant
attorney general for civil rights -- in an acting capacity. Congress closed
this loophole as part of last year's budget deal. Meanwhile, Lee has been
"acting" in that position for more than 500 days.

It has become obvious that in our two hundred twenty year history we have
evolved from a country where government was servant of the people to where
government is master and the people of this "free" nation are slaves of, and
subject to the whims of government.

President Bill Clinton was just asked what was happening in Waco. He replied
that he had nothing to do with it, it was a Justice Department decision.
Proof, once again, that our elected officials have passed control of our
government over to bureaucrats. We have lost all semblance of representative
government and are now controlled by appointees. The thin veil of government
of the people, by the people and for the people has been shredded along with
the Constitution. We have yet to wake up to what is happening in this
country, and, as Ben Franklin speculated in 1787, we have lost the country
that was the gift given by those who were then willing to give their lives
so that we might be free.

This is an urgent alert. It could turn out to be nothing, or it could result
in another Columbine-like mass shooting, planned to take place in less than
two days. I urge you to judge the dangers for yourself, and then act to
widely disseminate this report.

We now find that the Denver Post, in addition to the Sydney (Australia)
Morning Herald, has reported the threat of a massacre on this coming Fourth
of July, only hours from now, in Baltimore, Maryland.

   Massacre At Columbine High 
    Killers Quickly Gain Internet Cult Access 


   By Susan Greene
   Denver Post Staff Writer
   April 20 --
   ...
   ..
   ..

   "In the same online discussion Tuesday night, Internet users referred
to another 'sacrifice,' supposedly scheduled for July 4 in Baltimore.

'DEATH AWAITS!' wrote user TCMJEFF ... 'stage is set.'"

   ..
(END OF EXCERPT FROM THE DENVER POST)
-
I wonder what he means by ... "stage is set" ?  Are there any Fourth of July
outdoor stage concerts scheduled for the Baltimore area?  Any such concerts
would probably climax with a fireworks show.

If another mass shooting is planned for political purposes by people in the
upper echelons of the intelligence/terrorist establishment, then they might
conceivably choose the Fourth of July as the day, and choose a crowded
fireworks show as the scene of their rampage. Since the article in the
Denver
Post, as well as the article from the Sydney (Australia) Morning Herald,
cited below, has revealed the threat of another massacre in Baltimore on the
Fourth of July, it doesn’t take much imagination to fill in the remaining
blank and surmise that their planned scene might well be a crowded fireworks
show, where darkness would veil the view of the assassins, and where the
booming and crackling of the aerial explosions would drown out the sound of
gunshots, especially if silencers are used.

The Waco massacre and the Oklahoma City bombing occurred on a day of pride
for those who cherish their freedom; it was April 19th, the day when
colonial
Americans fired "the shots heard around the world," at Lexington and
Concord.

Waco and Oklahoma City were designed to demoralize, discredit, and demonize
those who would stand up to the tyrannical New World Order, and make
freedom-loving patriots appear to be wanton butchers.  The Columbine gunmen
struck on Hitler’s birthday so that gun owners would appear to be of the
same
ilk as the gunmen; that is, neo-nazis. So you see, there is a clear pattern
here of calculated MASS psychology—brainwashing—wherein they associate
calendar dates with these ghastly atrocities in order to terrorize the
American People to the point where they will approve of the disarmament of
all Americans.

If they can pull off a massacre on the Fourth of July during a fireworks
show, they will succeed in driving the public much closer to the brink of
total civilian disarmament.  However, if you and I publicize this threat
that
has scarcely been reported, then maybe the light of public awareness will
cause them to abandon their plan.

House Approves Disclosure of Private Medical Records
By ALISSA J. RUBIN, Times Staff Writer

 WASHINGTON--Individual medical records, including patients' genetic
information, could be disclosed by health insurers to credit card companies
and other financial institutions under legislation overwhelmingly approved
Thursday by the House.

 The controversial provision is embedded in a massive bill overhauling
the financial services industry, which passed, 343 to 86. The provision was
slipped into the measure late in the legislative process and was advertised
as a medical confidentiality provision by its sponsor, Rep. Greg Ganske
(R-Iowa), who is a doctor.

 Ganske said that his intention in adding the provision was to protect
consumers' medical records and to allow their disclosure only for billing
and
other health care operations.

 But privacy experts said that it is virtually a "publicity" provision
that, because of the way it is worded, would allow broad disclosures of
private medical information without a patient's permission.

 "Under this legislation, a health insurer can send a patient's
diagnosis
to a credit agency. They can say, in effect, 'By the way, Joan Smith has a
brain tumor; don't lend her any money,' " said Tim Westmoreland, a senior
policy fellow at Georgetown University Law Center.

 A number of groups, including the American Medical Assn., the American
Civil Liberties Union and the American Psychiatric Assn., oppose the
provision.

 Although the Clinton administration supports the bill as a whole, it
urged Congress to drop the medical confidentiality section because it could
undermine privacy protections. But lawmakers said that Clinton is unlikely
to
veto the bill over the medical privacy provision alone.

If the bill becomes law, it would mark the first time since the Great
Depression that the nation's banking laws have been overhauled. The goal of
the popular legislation is to allow financial services firms--banks, savings
and loan associations, investment banking firms, brokerage companies and
insurers--to compete in each other's lines of business. The Senate already
has approved a financial services modernization bill but did not include any
mention of medical privacy.

 It is unclear whether the medical privacy provision will remain part of
the financial services bill. It could be removed in a House-Senate
conference
committee, which would have to work out differences between the two versions
of the legislation.

Both houses of Congress are working on separate medical confidentiality
legislation, which could come to votes later this summer. Currently there
are
no comprehensive federal laws protecting individual health information.

 Lawmakers feel a need to move quickly. If they fail to act by late
August, Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala is required to
issue regulations protecting the privacy of electronic medical records.

The legislation approved Thursday would allow medical information held
by
insurance companies to be released for a variety of purposes, including to
determine charges for premiums and for research projects of any
kind--medical
and nonmedical.

 Among the entities who could review individual medical data are credit
card companies and banks. There is no restriction on how they could use the
information.

Ganske, author of the provision, and lobbyists for the banking industry,

Uncle Sam Has All Your Numbers

By Robert O'Harrow Jr.
Washington Post Staff Writer
Sunday, June 27, 1999; Page A1
As part of a new and aggressive effort to track down parents who owe child 
support, the federal government has created a vast computerized data-monitoring 
system that includes all individuals with new jobs and the names, addresses, 
Social Security numbers and wages of nearly every working adult in the United 
States. 
Government agencies have long gathered personal information for specific 
reasons, such as collecting taxes. But never before have federal officials had 
the legal authority and technological ability to locate so many Americans found 
to be delinquent parents or such potential to keep tabs on Americans accused of 
nothing. 
The system was established under a little-known part of the law overhauling 
welfare three years ago. It calls for all employers to quickly file reports on 
every person they hire and, quarterly, the wages of every worker. States 
regularly must report all people seeking unemployment benefits and all 
child-support cases. 
Starting next month, the system will reach further. Large banks and other 
financial institutions will be obligated to search for data about delinquent 
parents by name on behalf of the government, providing authorities with details 
about bank accounts, money-market mutual funds and other holdings of those 
parents. State officials, meanwhile, have sharply expanded the use of Social 
Security numbers. Congress ordered the officials to obtain the nine-digit 
numbers when issuing licenses such as drivers', doctors' and outdoorsmen's in 
order to revoke the licenses of delinquents. 
Enforcement officials say the coupling of computer technology with details 
about individuals' employment and financial holdings will give them an 
unparalleled ability to identify and locate parents who owe child support and, 
when necessary, withhold money from their paychecks or freeze their financial 
assets. 
"They never get away from us anymore. It's just wonderful. . . . What you're 
trying to do in child support is build a box, four walls, around a person," said 
Brian Shea, the acting executive director of child-support enforcement in 
Maryland. "It has in some ways revolutionized this business." 
But privacy experts and civil libertarians say the scope of the effort raises 
new questions about the proper line between aggressive public policy and 
intrusive government snooping. In pursuing an objective that is almost 
universally applauded, the government has also created something that many 
Americans have staunchly opposed: a vast pool of fresh personal information that 
could be used in a variety of ways to monitor their lives. 
"What you have here is a compilation of information that is much better and 
more current than any other data system in the U.S.," said Robert Gellman, a 
lawyer and privacy specialist in the District. "All of the sudden we're on the 
verge of creating the Holy Grail of data collection, a central file on every 
American." 
Already lawmakers, federal agencies and the White House have considered 
expanding the permitted aims of the system to include cutting down on fraud by 
government contractors, improving the efficiency of the government and 
pinpointing debtors, such as students who default on government loans. 
Under the system, every employer must send information about new hires and 
quarterly wages to state child-support agencies. State officials gather the 
data, along with information on unemployment benefits and child-support cases, 
and then ship it to computers run by the Administration for Children and 
Families. ACF officials then use computers to sort and send back to state 
authorities

["You don't need a computer to figure out where the real threat to our
security comes from. It's the politicians who support this frightening
Spy-Before-You-Fly program."]



New government computer may decide
you're a terrorist next time you fly

WASHINGTON, DC -- The FAA wants to let a computer decide if
you're a terrorist the next time you travel by plane -- a scheme that
could turn flying into a nightmare for thousands of innocent Americans,
is probably unconstitutional, and won't make the skies any safer, the
Libertarian Party warned today.

"Are you ready to fly the paranoid skies -- and let security
agents question you, inspect your luggage, and possibly strip-search
you if a government computer decides you fit the profile of a dangerous
terrorist?" asked Steve Dasbach, the party's national director.

"Unless we stop it in time, that's what could happen when the
government's new Computer Assisted Passenger Screening (CAPS) program
goes online."

Scheduled to be launched on January 1, 2000, the CAPS program
will use a computer program and information in the airlines'
computerized flight reservation system to identify possible
"terrorists."

Although bureaucrats won't reveal the specific suspicious
characteristics they're looking for, experts speculate that traveling
alone, buying your ticket at the last minute, visiting unapproved
foreign countries, or frequent travel could get you tagged as a
possible terrorist. Passengers could also be picked at random.

If you fit the "terrorist profile," security agents could pull
you out of line, search your luggage, interrogate you about your travel
plans, tag your luggage with bright orange labels, or escort you onto
the plane. In a worst-case scenario, you could be x-rayed,
strip-searched, or subjected to a body cavity search.

"CAPS will turn air travel into computerized Russian roulette,
where a microchip will decide if security agents should detain or
search you," said Dasbach. "Last year, 50,892 airline passengers
underwent some kind of body search by airport personnel. You could be
next -- even if you are 100% innocent of any crime -- and their excuse
will be: 'The computer made me do it.' "

In anticipation of such computer-directed harassment, the ACLU
has already set up a special Website to collect information about
incidents of mistreatment and discrimination by airport security
personnel.

Because thousands of innocent Americans could be subjected to
such harrowing interrogations and searches, the CAPS program raises
serious Constitutional questions, said Dasbach.

"The Fourth Amendment guarantees protection against
unreasonable search and seizure," he noted. "There's no exception in
the Fourth Amendment that says: 'Unless a computer program thinks
you're guilty.' Innocent Americans shouldn't be treated like terrorists
because a computer chip doesn't like them."

Also, the CAPS program almost certainly won't save a single
life, because current airport security has been 100% effective in
stopping terrorist threats.

"Ironically, CAPS is being mandated at the same time the
government admits the danger of airline terrorist threats in the United
States is all but non-existent," said Dasbach.

In fact, over the past 20 years, a total of zero lives have
been lost on American soil because of airline terrorism, according to
the government -- and airline travel is officially 100 times safer than
driving.

Despite this, the Federal Aviation Administration has already
budgeted $157 million for the project, and is asking Congress for
another $100 million.

The decision to go ahead with the CAPS program was made by the
White House Commission on Aviation Safety and Security following the
explosion of TWA flight 800 -- which later turned out to be a
mechanical malfunction.

"It's typical of the government: In order to solve a problem
that doesn't exist, politicians want to hijack your privacy, spend your
money, and strip you of your Constitutional rights," said Dasbach. "You
don't need a computer to figure out where the real threat to our
security comes from. It's the politicians who support this frightening
Spy-Before-You-Fly program."

On the positive side, the FAA is accepting public comments
about the CAPS program until August 17, so there may still be time to
stop it, said Dasbach.

"The best thing about rain forests is they never suffer from drought."--
Vice President Dan Quayle

"You always learn something by reading the classics. Particularly The
Prince. I go through and look at this from this intellectual point of
view. Machiavelli had these three classes of mind. The first class was
the person that was creative enough to be leader and be able to lead a
great nation without much help. The second class of mind was one that
wasn't creative but could take ideas, put people around him, and be able
to lead nations forward. And the third class of people didn't really
know much of anything. And they were the worst kind of leaders, because
not only were they not creative, but they didn't know what was right or
wrong, and they just sort of went by whatever they felt like.
I've tried to figure out where I am. I know I'm not the first because I
don't think I have the creativeness that Machiavelli talks about. If I
go back and reread it I might figure it out exactly where I put myself.
I'm somewhere between two and one."-- Senator Dan Quayle gives his
opinion of the book `The Prince', 9/28/88 (reported in Esquire, 8/92)

"Our party has been accused of fooling the public by calling tax
increases 'revenue enhancement.' Not so. No one was fooled." -- Vice
President Dan Quayle, 1988

"Bobby Knight told me this: 'There is nothing that a good defense cannot
beat a better offense.' In other words a good offense wins." -- Vice

FORMER U.S. OFFICIAL CHOSEN TO HEAD WORLD POLICE

A former U.S. law enforcement official on Friday was chosen has the lead
candidate to head Interpol, the global law enforcement organization.

Ron Noble, former Treasury undersecretary for enforcement, was named
during
an executive session at Interpol headquarters in Lyon, France.

Noble, 42, best known as the chief investigator of the failed Bureau of
Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms raid on the Branch Davidian compound
outside
Waco, Texas, is the only person the United States has ever nominated to
head Interpol in the 75-year history of the organization.

Attorney General Janet Reno personally picked Noble for the position.

The move marks a shift in U.S. policy, and comes as American's celebrate
Independence Day.

Until recently, American federal law enforcement agencies have not
played
an active role in Interpol.

Founded in 1923, the International Criminal Police Organization
[Interpol],
using the resources of law enforcement agencies in 177 member countries,
acts as a global clearinghouse for information on crime threats.

The organization cannot make arrests, but it does issue "red notices."
Those notices are honored by 135 countries that arrest suspects solely
on
the basis of a "red notice" with no further information. The USA,
however,
does not currently honor Interpol's red notices.

"Interpol is a great law enforcement organization, but at the turn of
the
century, with technology taking off by leaps and bounds, it is at a
crossroads," Noble told USA TODAY in a recent interview.

"You can move from country to country in hours, and from a
communications
and business perspective, you can move at the speed of light with the
advent of the Internet. Interpol is the one organization that can help
in
getting the right people together and coordinating and fighting crime in
those areas."

In reading over the following history lesson, which I received today in the

risking the little that they have in order to save their nation from those
who are destroying her. England never had in mind doing to us what our

White men were in a White society. Our leaders do not have clue! They are
intent on destroying our nation. And here we sit watching as if it were some

American Revolution


Best wishes to all!


 Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the
Declaration of Independence?

 Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before
they died.  Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their
sons serving in the Revolutionary Army, another had two sons captured.

 Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the
Revolutionary War. They signed and they pledged their lives, their
fortunes, and their sacred honor.  What kind of men were they?

 Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists.  Eleven were merchants, nine were
farmers and large plantation owners; men of means, well educated. But they
signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty
would be death if they were captured.

 Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships
swept from the seas by the British Navy.  He sold his home and properties
to pay his debts, and died in rags.

 Thomas McKeam was so hounded by the British that he was forced to move his
family almost constantly.  He served in the Congress without pay, and his
family was kept in hiding.  His possessions were taken from him, and
poverty was his reward.

 Vandals or soldiers looted the properties of Dillery, Hall, Clymer,
Walton, Gwinnett, Heyward, Ruttledge, and Middleton.

 At the battle of Yorktown, Thomas Nelson, Jr., noted that the British
General Cornwallis had taken over the Nelson home for his headquarters.  He
quietly urged General George Washington to open fire. The home was
destroyed, and Nelson died bankrupt.

 Francis Lewis had his home and properties destroyed.  The enemy jailed his
wife, and she died within a few months.

 John Hart was driven from his wife's bedside as she was dying. Their 13
children fled for their lives.  His fields and his gristmill were laid to
waste.  For more than a year he lived in forests and caves, returning home
to find his wife dead and his children vanished.  A few weeks later he died
from exhaustion and a broken heart.  Norris and Livingston suffered similar
fates.

 Such were the stories and sacrifices of the American Revolution. These
were not wild eyed, rabble-rousing ruffians. They were soft-spoken men of
means and education. They had security, but they valued liberty more.

 Standing tall, straight, and unwavering, they pledged: "For the support of
this declaration, with firm reliance on the protection of the divine
providence, we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and
our sacred honor."

 They gave you and me a free and independent America.  The history books
never told you a lot of what happened in the Revolutionary War.  We didn't
just fight the British.  We were British subjects at that time and we
fought our own government! Some of us take these liberties so much for
granted...

 We shouldn't.

 So, take a couple of minutes while enjoying your 4th of July holiday and
silently thank these patriots.  It's not much to ask for the price they
paid..

THE POWER TO DESTROY
The truth
about the IRS
'Let's settle this once and for all,'
says former special agent




By Sarah Foster
© 1999 WorldNetDaily.com

Former IRS special agent Joe Banister had a couple of questions he hoped his
congressman could answer.
"If the IRS and the 16th Amendment are not legal -- and I've discovered they
aren't -- should I file a 1040 form?" he wondered.

Banister has been wondering about that ever since he was ousted from his
high-level, well-paid job with the IRS last February. In March WorldNetDaily
broke the news nationwide of his forced resignation.

Uncertain of what he should do, Banister posed the question to Tom Campbell,
R-Calif., who was hosting a public town hall meeting in Santa Clara, Calif.,
earlier this month.

Speaking with WorldNetDaily, Banister recalled that during the
question-and-answer session he told Campbell and the audience that he had
been a special agent since 1993 with the IRS Criminal Investigation
Division, one of the service's "accountants with a gun and a badge," as
they're called. Two years ago he began investigating the allegations made by
so-called tax-protesters and concluded their arguments were true.
Specifically:


The filing of federal income tax returns is voluntary, and the filing of
federal income tax returns is not required.

That the 16th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was never ratified.

That income taxes are not used to pay for daily government operations, but
to pay the interest on the national debt.
"I explained to Congressman Campbell and the folks there that I faced a real
dilemma. I could either stay in my job -- even though I knew it was illegal
and immoral -- or I'd have to resign," Banister said. "I explained how I had
asked the IRS if my findings were correct, because if they were I would have
to resign."

Should his findings prove false, the question became whether the agency
would show him where he was off track. "They never answered my inquiry, but
said they had accepted my resignation.

"So what should I do about the 1040? What about my discoveries -- are they
right?" he asked Campbell. "Should I still be carrying a gun and a wearing a
badge for the IRS?"

Banister said Campbell replied he could not answer the questions since it
was an area he admitted knowing little about, but he promised to look over
Banister's material.

To date, Banister has not received an answer.

Rather than wait, the six-year IRS gun-slinger is taking his questions to
Washington as one of several speakers that are carrying the debate to the
nation's capital itself. Rep. Campbell and, indeed, all members of Congress
will be able to find out directly what the "anti-tax" arguments really are.

On July 1 and 2, Banister and other experts on the 16th Amendment will be
speaking at a special symposium at the National Press Club. The
one-and-a-half day event will begin at 9 a.m.

The sponsors are calling it an "IRS Showdown."

Speaking with Banister will be William Benson, author of the two-volume
magnum opus "The Law that Never Was"; Devvy Kidd, whose appearances on the
Geoff Metcalf radio talk show inspired Banister to begin his investigations;
William Conklin, author of "Why Nobody is Required to File Tax Returns,"
another of Banister's mentors; and constitutional attorney Larry Becraft.

Holding a symposium of this kind -- a first for the nation's capital -- was
the brainchild of Bob Schulz, a talk-show host in Albany, N.Y., and chairman
of the We the People Foundation for Constitutional Education, a non-profit
corporation.

"The federal income tax and Social Security tax are unconstitutional and
illegal," says Schulz. "Those are the conclusions of a substantial body of
knowledge that has been mounting for several years -- but Congress and the
courts have ignored it.

"It has reached the point that we must have an organized public debate on
the whole matter. People are having assets seized and going to jail for not
complying with laws that may not exist. That's why we're bringing these
speakers here."

Schulz has sent certified letters to the White House and the IRS, including
one to Commissioner Rossotti, inviting them to send their experts on the
subject.

"They've been asked to bring definite evidence that the 16th Amendment was,
in fact, properly ratified, that there is a law requiring citizens to file
and pay federal income taxes, and to give an unambiguous explanation as to
how one can file a federal income tax return without surrendering one's
Fifth Amendment Rights," says Schulz.

All members of the Senate and the House of Representatives have been sent
invitations -- and some have agreed to be speakers.

"James Traficant, D-Ohio, is going to be the luncheon speaker on Thursday,"
said Schulz.

[CTRL] ABC Thinks The UN Should Have a Voice In Setting US Policy

1999-06-29 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

TA DAH!

A Media Lord has spoken!!

ABC Thinks The UN Should Have a Voice In Setting US Policy

ABC’s World News Tonight on Sunday and Monday night ignored a Sunday, June
27 front page New York Times story about how contrary to Clinton
administration assertions they learned of Chinese espionage in 1995, not
1996. But Monday night ABC jumped on a story about guns played on the front
page of the Monday Washington Post, even getting soundbites from the very
same liberal activists quoted in the Post story.

Under the heading of "Targeting Guns: Exporters to the U.S.," the June 28
Washington Post headline declared: "Selling in a Land of Opportunity:
Foreign Firms Find a Big Market." Post reporter Sharon Walsh began:

"As increasingly restrictive gun laws are enacted in major industrial
countries, gun-makers around the globe are flocking to the biggest and least
regulated gun market in the world -- the United States."

Citing a United Nations study on how 29 nations have tightened gun laws in
the past five years, Walsh used Tom Diaz of the Violence Policy Center and
Wendy Cukier of the Ryerson Polytechnic University in Toronto, as her
experts.

Now check out how ABC picked up the Post story without any credit. World
News Tonight anchor Peter Jennings asserted:

"The United Nations tells us that 29 countries have now tightened the rules
on gun ownership so considerably that it is more difficult for the gun
manufacturers to sell their product. Now none of those countries has a
Second Amendment so that makes the United States an important market. Guns,
like any other product, end up where they are welcomed."

ABC News reporter/Washington Post reader Lisa Stark explained, as the Post
did, how half of the guns sold in the U.S. come from companies owned
overseas. After a soundbite from Diaz she noted how Smith  Wesson is owned
by a British firm but their guns cannot be sold there and British "laws are
so strict, the British Olympic shooting team, which uses guns like these,
had to practice in France."

Other foreign gun-makers she cited matched a chart in the Post: Glock of
Austria, Browning of Belgium, Beretta of Italy and Taurus of Brazil. Wendy
Cukier suggested that like other "dangerous commodities," such as cigarettes
and leaded gasoline, producers must shift sales to where there is less
regulation. Stark did allow a gun store owner to point out: "Just like the
camera you’re using here, it’s made in another country. We’re in a world
market today and there’s free enterprise."

Stark then ruefully concluded: "And so far in this political season Congress
sees no reason to change that, leaving gun makers and sellers a lucrative
and legal U.S. market."

[CTRL] The Inversion of True Morality [Nietzsche]

1999-06-29 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

Folks, There have been, for quite some time now, various Posts dealing with
the contemporary issue of Morality appearing in the Lists to which I
subscribe.

I recently came across what follows and thought to myself it may be of
interest to most of my List colleagues;  particularly those who have been
able to maintain an open mind not damaged by the political correctness
demanded by those in power whose goal is to enslave us all.

That having been said, an explanation is due you as to why I selected the
thoughts of a late 19th Century German philosopher to make some sense of our
present moral dilemma.  America's current majority population is north
European centered.  Our ancestors, both Christian and Jewish, have, over the
generations past, been "conditioned" to northern European cultural and moral
values.  The Thought that follows, in my view, clearly explains the
contradictions of our present day moral crisis.

Our natural instincts to fulfill the tasks of life, nurtured by the love of
our parents, have been severely "inverted" by those among us who desire to
change the natural slave/master relationship.

I recognize that there are those members of the List who, if given the
chance, will pounce on me as being racist and will vent their hatred at me.
No sweat.  Those people are frustrated at their increasing sense of lost
freedom and the intrusion of Big Bother into their lives and have to attack
those who make an effort to attempt clarifying the reasons for their
predicament simply due to the fact that they are or have been too lazy or
ignorant to find out for themselves what has happened to our once relative
moral society;  and have unwittingly contributed to the "problem".

To sum up my commentary, I find it clear that the moral behavior imposed by
people who have forsaken their natural human instincts in the pursuit of the
tasks of life is indeed the underlying cause of our present moral crisis.

Make no Mistake!!  The NWO Elites are the new Masters.  It is up to you to
exercise your human instincts to succeed in performing the tasks of life to
fulfill those natural instincts unfettered by contemporary un-natural
morality.

Mabel Lewis Sahakian, D.Sc., Harper Collins, 1966, page 50.

THE NATURALISTIC PHILOSOPHY OF FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) believed that contemporary morality is an
inversion of true morality.

Whatever is genuinely moral accords with human nature and never contradicts
it.

Nietzsche agreed with Schopenhauer(1) that man's nature is composed of life
instincts, that the task of life is to fulfill man's instincts, not to
inhibit them as the prevailing culture of modern times has so often
demanded.

But, he differed profoundly from Schopenhauer's pessimism, assuring us, on
the contrary, that success is attainable if we give full expression to our
instincts instead of repressing them.


Slave Morality vs. Master Morality

Friedrich Nietzsche pointed out that two moral systems have been apparent
throughout history---that of enslaved peoples and that of the elite who have
traditionally ruled---and that each system has had its own moral code.

The slave morality of the weak requires them to accept subjugation and
obedience to the master race.

The "master morality" consists of the ethics of the aristocratic class
(rulers and noblemen) who comprise the "Aryan race of conquerors," dedicated
to combat, adventure, victory.  For these men, peace comes only with
conquest of their opponents who must then acknowledge the natural right of
the strong to rule the weak.

The principle that "might makes right", said Nietzsche, is the verdict of
nature, in contrast to civilization (Christian and Jewish) which has opposed
this ethic with one of humility and compassion.

The traditional Judeo-Christian culture is appropriate, Nietzsche insisted,
only for slaves.

The Jews were a subject people during most of their history and consequently
developed a morality suited to the weaker segment of the human race.  Theirs
is an ethic of "ressentiment", a product of repressed anger, a repressed
hostility which seeks to devise hidden reprisals against their lords and
taskmasters.

According to Nietzsche, slaves do not dare to retaliate openly but seek
clandestine forms of revenge.

Nietzsche accused Judeo-Christian religious leaders of using religion as a
means of turning natural moral values upside down, so that the master race
became the slaves, and the slaves became the masters.

The slaves, said he, became priests representing the omnipotent God and
threatened their masters with divine punishment unless they, the masters,
accepted a humble, servile role as obedient servants of the slaves.

Nietzsche called for a revaluation of all values, the repudiation of
Judeo-Christian values.

(Note the kinship of this philosophy to that of Adolph Hitler, although
Nietzsche's aristocrats were to be

[CTRL] The 1920's Revisited: FDR, Al Smith, Hoover

1999-06-27 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

The Man, the Leader, the Legacy: Part 6
by Ralph Raico, April 1999

In the course of the 1920s, Roosevelt had grown close politically to the
major figure in Democratic politics in New York, Alfred E. Smith. On the
face of it, this was a curious alliance. Smith's base was the powerful
Tammany Hall machine, in New York City. [The Judaization of Tammany is now
complete, for the Irish element has been overcome by Jewish money.
JEWISH INFLUENCES IN AMERICAN POLITICS-
http://www.muslim.net/islam/Zionism/Ford/ij_ch8.html]

In contrast, Roosevelt liked to pose as an independent and reformer, an
enemy to everything Tammany stood for: wholesale patronage and systematic
graft. Yet each man had something the other could use: Smith, Irish and
Catholic, an adamant foe of Prohibition, was so rooted in the great city
that his theme song was "The Sidewalks of New York." Roosevelt, a Protestant
from "upstate," who could appease "drys" on the liquor question, offered his
many connections among the social and financial elite. Franklin quickly
patched up his old quarrel with the Tammany machine. In 1924, he was ready
to lend Smith, now governor of New York, something of his patrician glamour,
as he nominated him for president of the United States.

The Democratic convention was held in the old Madison Square Garden, where
the sweltering New York summer was particularly oppressive. Smith's chief
rival, William Gibbs McAdoo, had been treasury secretary under Wilson and
was considered friendly to the Ku Klux Klan, then enjoying a great revival.
In those days (and until 1936) a two-thirds majority was needed for
nomination by the Democrats--a means of ensuring a southern veto over any
candidate the party would select.

When the moment came to put Smith's name in nomination, Roosevelt,
supporting himself on crutches, made his painful way across the platform. It
was his first political speech since he had fallen ill, and his courage and
good cheer were palpable to the thousands of spellbound onlookers. Literally
in the spotlight, he delivered his speech in his fine, strong tones.
Clearly, here was a man who, in spite of dreadful physical disability, was
vibrant and robust. The speech had been composed primarily by Judge Joseph
Proscauer. In the end, what everyone remembered was the phrase from William
Wordsworth, which Judge Proscauer had insisted on and which Roosevelt had
found too "poetic":

This is the Happy Warrior, this is he
Whom every Man in arms should wish to be.
From then on, Al Smith would be known as the Happy Warrior.
The balloting went on for days--roll call followed roll call, each beginning
with the head of the Alabama delegation famously intoning, "Alabama casts 24
votes for Oscar W. Underwood." Finally, on the 103rd ballot, the compromise
candidate passed the two-thirds hurdle. He was John W. Davis, a wealthy
corporate lawyer, hailing from West Virginia, but now associated with the
J.P. Morgan interests and ensconced on Long Island. (It was a period when
the reputation of big business was running high.) Franklin was the only real
star of the ill-fated convention. In the November election, Davis lost to
the Republican incumbent Calvin Coolidge by a landslide. Nearly 5 million
votes were cast on the Progressive line for Robert La Follette, Woodrow
Wilson's bitter antagonist on war with Germany.

During the next four years, FDR kept building up his network of contacts in
the national party. But everything seemed rosy for the Republicans for the
foreseeable future, and Roosevelt's plan was to make recovering his health
his major concern. He purchased the establishment at Warm Springs, set up a
foundation to run it, and spent more and more time there. In 1928, he once
again put Al Smith's name in nomination at the convention, in Houston,
incidentally speaking for the first time to a national radio audience of
millions. Radio was to be the medium of which FDR would become the
acknowledged master. It created a sense of intimacy with the listeners that
perfectly fit his personal style, besides allowing him to bypass the
newspaper press, often controlled by his unrelenting enemies.

In Houston the nomination took only one ballot. But Al Smith's candidacy was
doomed. Not only was the country basking in what seemed to be an indefinite
prosperity under the Republicans, but what had been advantages for Smith in
New York hurt him badly in most of the rest of the country: his pronounced
opposition to Prohibition (he was himself a notorious drinker), his links to
Tammany, and his religion. It did nothing to dampen anti-Catholic suspicions
when, on a visit by Smith and his wife to Rome, the Pope referred to him as
"my beloved son, Governor Smith." (Mrs. Smith was no asset either; to many,
including Eleanor's set, Katie was unspeakably vulgar--so Irish, you know.)

The Smith camp believed they had no chance at all if they failed to carry
New York. Upstate, the religious issue swayed many. But with the Protestant

 -Caveat Lector-

The Secret World of U.S. Communism

0n March 27, 1962, the U.S. Communist newspaper The Worker exuberantly
reported the following story: “Attorney General Robert E Kennedy admitted,
in effect, in a press conference in Los Angeles on Saturday, that the
persecution of the Communist Party reflects a monstrous hoax perpetrated on
the American people. He declared at the press conference that the Communist
Party of the U.S. is ‘no danger’ to the security of the U.S”.
For the CPUSA, such a statement from the then-highest official of the U.S.
Justice Department (as well as the brother of the U.S. President) was
astonishing and unexpected. Especially so, since the Kennedy administration
had experienced an embarrassing Communist public relations victory in its
botched Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba the previous April 17, 1961.

What Atty. General Bobby Kennedy supposedly did not know at the time, but
the CPUSA did, was that the American Communist party then — and back to its
beginnings in 1919 — was bankrolled by the Kremlin. CPUSA sent its members
for military, espionage and terror training to the USSR, maintained an
illegal underground apparatus to steal U.S. documents (including atomic
secrets), penetrated both the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the
forerunner of the CIA, and Office of War Information (OWI) during the
Roosevelt WWII administration. It even commissioned CPUSA officials to
Soviet secret police posts to spy on each other and on suspected unorthodox
leftists, such as Stalin’s nemesis Trotsky, who was murdered with an axe to
his skull in Mexico City, all arranged by the CPUSA and Kremlin
fellow-henchmen.

After decades of deceit, the truth about the CPUSA is finally out. With the
collapse of the Soviet Union, the archives of the Comintern (Communist
International), the Soviet Communist Party, and other formerly super-secret
documents have become available to historians and researchers. Under an
agreement with the Russian Centre for the Preservation and Study of
Documents of Recent History, Yale University press is undertaking a gigantic
project to publish an annotated selection of these official records in a
series called Annals of Communism.

A total of 18 volumes is planned (in English and Russian editions) dealing
with such topics as History of the Soviet Gulag System, 1920-1989, The Last
Days of the Romanovs, and Soviet Politics and Repression in the 1930s. The
great value of the project is already apparent in volume one, entitled The
Secret World of American Communism with Soviet documents authoritatively
annotated by Harvey Klehr of Emery University, John Earl Haynes of the
Library of Congress and Fridrikh Igorevich Firsov, now curator of the
Comintern archives.

“The documents in this volume demonstrate that the widespread popular belief
that American Communists collaborated with Soviet intelligence and placed
loyalty to the Soviet Union ahead of loyalty to the United States was well
founded,” they say. “Concern about the subversive threat of the CPUSA and
worries that Communists employed in sensitive government jobs constituted a
security risk were equally well founded.” So much for the Party and its
fellow-travellers’ line that “anti-communism was an irrational and
indefensible persecution of a group of American reformers or that it was
impossible for the CPUSA to have engaged in nefarious activities.” Documents
from the Soviet secret archives prove that is exactly what CPUSA agents were
doing.

“Many historians have failed to come to grips with the issue of Communist
infiltration in government agencies or the dubious nature of the Popular
Front alliance between. Communists and a segment of liberals during the
1930s and 1940s, “ the editors of this volume note. “Previously, evidence of
the Communist presence could be trivialized or its reliability questioned.
In addition to their own evidentiary weight, they lend crucial support to
the large mass of direct and circumstantial evidence indicating a
substantial organized presence in a number of government agencies...”

The CPUSA, Klehr, Haynes and Firsov pronounce, was “a conspiracy financed by
a hostile foreign power that recruited members for clandestine work,
developed an elaborate underground apparatus, and used that apparatus to
collaborate with espionage services of that power”.
Official Soviet documents that have become available in recent months shed
much light on secret Kremlin activities and directives over the past
decades. For example:

Proof that the Kremlin directly ordered the massacre of 5,000 Polish
military officers at Katyn Forest in 1940 — and possibly 15,000 other
intellectuals, religious and prominent Polish citizens at POW camps in
Kozielsk, Starobielsk, and Ostashkov, USSR who simply vanished after WWII.

Proof that Stalin ordered the North Korean invasion of South Korea in 1950 —
and used “respected” foreign journalists such as I.E Stone and Wilfred
Burchett (both Soviet agents) to blame South

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

THE 16 FACTS

CRITICAL FACTS THAT YOUR KIDS WILL NOT LEARN IN SCHOOL

   1. The White race made America what it is today.

   2. American heritage is White heritage.

   3. American law is based upon White concepts from White European
   thought.

   4. The American all-White neighborhoods of the past were
demonstrably
   safer, and freer of crime of all sorts than integrated
neighborhoods of
   today.

   5. The American all-White schools of the past were clearly
superior to
   any integrated school of today.

   6. All great societies of the past which were White as they rose
to
   power, when they changed from being dominantly White, to a
dominantly
   mixed race society, they fell permanently into decay. (e.g.
Egypt,
   Greece, Rome, Spain, Portugal.)

   7. Racial integration of our neighborhoods and our schools has
forced
   them into decay, just like the racial integration of the
societies
of the
   great White nations of the past caused them to fall into decay.
History,
   both ancient and recent American, have consistently taught the
very
   same lesson. It is clear beyond any debate, that modifying the
racial
   composition of America away from the dominantly White society
that
it
   was as it rose to power, towards a mixed, racially diverse
society, will be
   catastrophic. It will plunge the great American nation into the
same
   depths that the other great White nations of the past have fallen
into.

   8. Based upon the extensive history of the Black race it is clear
that they
   are not capable of creating or maintaining an advanced society.
They
   have never created one advanced society in Africa. In every case
(such
   as Haiti) where they have been given a thriving society, they
have
killed
   it, driving it into the same primitive state that their people
have always
   lived in, in their native Africa. (For any who is foolish enough
to doubt
   history, we have the sad spectacle of South Africa playing out
before us,
   which should erase all doubts.)

   9. History has shown us that the Black race cannot create or
maintain an
   advanced society on their own. They therefore, as a people,
cannot
well
   fit into an advanced society, as equals, living and working
beside
those
   who not only are capable of building one advanced society, but
have built
   numerous such societies in all climates and in all types of land.

   10. History has shown us that the Hispanic peoples are also
deficient in
   creating advanced societies like the White race has repeatedly
created.
   While they have show ability that is superior to the Black race,
by
   creating written language and some moderately advanced societies
they
   have not been able to take the superior natural resources of the
South
   American continent and do much with them.

   11. Spain and Portugal sent soldiers to the lands south of the
Rio
Grande
   to conquer and take the wealth of the land. Instead of sending
families to
   colonize, the Spanish men took native wives. The racial makeup of
the
   lands south of the Rio Grande is composed of American Indian,
Black,
   mixed-race and a small percentage of Whites thrown in. Their
lands
   have never thrived like the nations to the north where Whites
colonized
   and kept their race in tact, seldom mixing their race with
others.

   12. By "celebrating diversity" we are bringing in the Hispanic

Is President Clinton a Sociopath?
by Sarah Thompson, M.D.
9/28/98

Several people have asked me about the many statements being made regarding
President Clinton's mental health. He has been labeled by some as a "sex
addict", by some as a "sociopath", by some as suffering from being an "adult
child of an alcoholic". Some people claim that we should not hold him
responsible for his misconduct because he is "ill". Some propose that he
invoke Article 25 of the Constitution to declare himself temporarily unable
to discharge the duties of President, that he enter into some sort of
therapy, and resume office when he is "cured".

From a strict medical and psychiatric standpoint, there is no such disorder
as "sexual addiction", although it is possible to diagnose a "sexual
disorder" in someone who is distressed about using a succession of people
for sexual gratification. Personally, I believe that "sex addiction" is not
a medical or psychiatric disorder, but rather an attempt to avoid
responsibility by medicalizing misbehavior. In other words, "It's not my
fault, I'm addicted to sex", just doesn't convince me at all.

On a related note, there are psychiatric disorders in which a person may
behave in sexually inappropriate ways, and in some cases persons so affected
truly do not understand that their behavior is wrong or may be unable to
control that behavior. But even in those cases, the person remains
responsible for any damage or emotional distress caused by such behavior.

Finally there are people who are mentally incompetent. Both competency and
insanity are legal, not medical terms, and such a determination can be made
only by a judge or jury. Clearly if Mr. Clinton is too incompetent to manage
his own affairs, or if he is insane, he is unfit to serve as President.

That one is an "adult child of an alcoholic (ACOA)" is also not a
psychiatric diagnosis. It is true that certain thought and behavior patterns
occur more often in people who were raised by an alcoholic parent. But ACOA
is a way of conceptualizing certain behavior patterns, not an illness. It is
not diagnostic, but rather descriptive. It is a tool used to help children
of alcoholics, their families, and their therapists better understand their
particular psychological vulnerabilities. And of course, ACOA is not
deterministic; some people raised by alcoholic parents do not develop
psychological or behavioral problems.

Finally we come to sociopathy, although the current terminology is
"Antisocial Personality Disorder". Antisocial Personality Disorder is a
specific psychiatric diagnosis. I'd like to simply be able to say that Mr.
Clinton either does or does not have Antisocial Personality Disorder. But
it's not that simple.

First of all, I (like most other psychiatrists) consider it to be highly
unethical to diagnose a person whom I have not interviewed in person. I have
never met, much less interviewed Mr. Clinton, so I will not diagnose him. So
any conclusions I may draw are my opinion. It may be an educated opinion,
but I want to be very clear that I am not diagnosing anyone in absentia.

Secondly, psychiatric diagnosis, according to the Diagnostic and Statistical
Manual of Mental Disorders, (DSM-IV), is bit like ordering from a Chinese
menu. To be diagnosed with a specific disorder, a person must meet so many
criteria from section A, so many from section B, none from section C, for
example. Personally, I'm not convinced that this is the best approach to
diagnosis, but as the name implies, the system is used for statistical
evaluations also, and concrete criteria are absolutely necessary for
accurate statistics.

So for the curious and the armchair psychiatrists among us, I'm posting the
full description of Antisocial Personality Disorder along with the
diagnostic criteria.

Antisocial personality disorder is, by definition, a mental illness.
However, what is or is not a psychiatric disorder is not absolute. It is
determined by a committee of psychiatrists, and is subject to change. For
example, homosexuality was considered a mental disorder until the 1970's,
but it is no longer included in the list of psychiatric disorders. Therefore
you should read the description and criteria for yourself, and draw your own
conclusion as to whether or not antisocial behavior is a mental disorder. I
believe a strong case may be made for either position.

Further, I do not mean to imply that should Mr. Clinton be so diagnosed, we
should excuse his behavior because he is "sick". First of all, I do not
believe that being "sick" relieves one of the responsibility to deal with
the consequences of one's behavior. Second, while I have great compassion
for those people who are mentally ill, that does not mean that I necessarily
support the idea of a mentally ill person occupying the White House. If Mr.
Clinton is mentally ill, he should act in accordance with Article 25 and
resign.

Antisocial personality is

 -Caveat Lector-

SOURCE:  THE NEW AMERICAN, June 21, 1999

Preface:
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin was still a long way from consolidating his grip on
Russia in 1919 when he penned the introduction to TEN DAYS THAT SHOOK THE
WORLD, an adulatory account of the Bolshevik triumph by Harvard-educated
American Communist John Reed.
Comrade Reed recorded in his book (printed by the Communist Party's
International Publishers) this official demand of the Reds:

"All straits opening into inland seas, as well as the Suez and Panama
Canals, are to be neutralized."

JIMMY CARTER'S(CFR) BETRAYAL:

With all opinion polls in 1976 showing massive public opposition (over 
80
percent) to any surrender of u.S. sovereignty over the Canal, candidate
Carter (CFR) had promised during the campaign NEVER to give up the strategic
isthmus passage.

That PLEDGE could not be allowed to stand in the way of the Insiders' 
new
world order, however.

On HIS FIRST DAY AS PRESIDENT, he signed the order to commence
negotiations to surrender the Canal.

(Folks, Does this or does this not mean that the peanut-farmer Carter (CFR)
committed a treasonous act?)



...the Carter-Torrijos treaties are patently invalid on purely legal grounds
since the parties did not ratify the same documents.  And ... the treaties
are null and void on the following counts as well:

1.  Article IV of the Constitution, requiring both houses of Congress to
dispose of territory and property, was by-passed when the Senate and White
House transferred the Canal and Zone alone.

2.  Treaties, like laws, must be repealed by both houses of Congress;
repeal of the 1903 treaty was NOT voted on by the House and therefore the
treaty legally remains in force.

3.  These actions violated the separation of powers doctrine which is the
bedrock of our system of governance.

4.  No plebiscite was held in Panama on changes made to the original
document that the voters approved.

5.  Panama's constitution requires that country's president to sign
treaties;  Omar Torrijos signed, whereas Demetrio Lakas was president.

The 1903 Hay-Bunau-Varilla Treaty between the united States and Panama gave
the U. S. sovereignty in perpetuity over the Canal and Zone.

Definition of Perpetuity:

1.  lasting forever;
2.  something perpetual, as a pension to be paid indefinitely;
3.  unlimited time;  eternity--in perpetuity forever.

Source:  Webster's New World Dictionary of the America Language,
Second Concise Edition

The Media Lords have succeeded in stifling all outrage of the American
public on this issue.
All the more reason to VOTE 2000 for constitutional candidates and end this
tyranny by the Fabian Socialists.

God bless each and everyone of you who are concerned about Freedom,

Is everyone too busy making a buck (half of which goes to government) to
care about the security of the Nation, which includes one's personal
security?

Brothers and Sisters,
It's time we took to our "natural freedom".
We can do it in 2000, if you haven't been too dumbed down by the socialist
public school you were forced to attend.

THE HUNT MAKES AMENDS

I hunted with a Falconer
And his famed predators, Hawk, and owl Odin.
In a vast field lined with oaks and red maples.
Open space, with deep bramble thickets,
A perfect place for raptors and rabbits.

Loosed by the Falconer
Into the spright and lively air of near Christmas
The birds circled, then came to rest in the boughs of trees.
Ancient eyes alight with interest.
Harsh exultant cries upon the air.
Rabbits froze in dread - our job to flush them out.

The Falconer explained: they had to be trained to this.
Carefully. Gently.
Else they'd take to their natural freedom.
But on his wrist, covered with heavy gauntlet,
they'd found choice meat.
Easier come-by meat. And companionship, of sorts.
Well cared-for, hunger unknown.

What is freedom compared to that?
The welcome carrion or blooded meat,
A trade: hood and jesses and gauntlet
For the lift of the updraft
The large, fierce, long-sighted view of the world?

The raptors hunt with swift and certain grace.
The hunt makes amends for the chains.

[CTRL] The Fireworks I Want to See This 4th of July © Patricia Neill 1998

1999-06-13 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

(sure would be nice if yo'all would re-distribute this)
Time to take back our 'natural freedom'!  What do you think about that?

The Fireworks I Want to See This 4th of July

I am one of those scandalous Americans who carry a copy of the Citizen's
Rule Book, that remarkably seditious document which is a weapon of
instruction and a rod of correction. Using this assault weapon -- defined so
because those who purport to rule us find it threatening -- makes it easy to
show any of the millions of fearful non-seditious exactly how far our
"government" has slipped into tyranny.

I care very little for the Constitution as constitution, it being a mere
plan of government and flawed at that. I care a great deal for the Bill of
Rights, which is the separate instrument that warned our increasingly
centralized government, even back then, that individual liberty was and is
the single most important thing about America. And I love the Declaration of
Independence, because it tells tyrants to go to hell.

I also know that the socialistic moldwarps over at National Propaganda Radio
will read our forceful and illuminating charter on the 4th of July, with
absolutely no awareness of the irony of their doing so. We'll hear the
smarmy, self-righteously snide voice of Cokie Roberts mouthing these stern
Jeffersonian sentences of rebuttal to and refusal of tyranny. We'll hear the
puling tones of Daniel Pinkwater (who is regularly heard on National
PudPuller Radio saying "Public Radio International" as if it were some sort
of Golden Calf) reading parts of this most important record of our nation.
And we'll hear all the rest of the
propagandists-who-can't-wait-to-be-globalists letting their slimy tongues
slide over the words of something they will never understand.

Unless, of course, we help them to understand, which brings me to the
fireworks I want to see this 4th of July.

I want to see brimstone and hellfire light up people's minds. I want them to
actually read the Declaration of Independence and understand its relevance
to our own day--more so now than at any other time in our history. I want to
see a burning in people's hearts, a spark to give them the courage to do
whatever may be necessary to dislodge these miserable, impertinent
cockalorums making up our current corrupt government. I want to see fire,
and I want to see it ignite our spirits to resistance. Fierce resistance.

We have been "more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to
right [ourselves] by abolishing the forms to which [we] are accustomed." We
have, so far, simply suffered all the various assaults listed in the
Declaration. We have put up with murders and thefts and attempts to make us
numbered and docile slaves.

No more. Without Resistance, we and our children will be slaves. Our
"representatives" have already passed far too many of these new feudal
orders for us to question it. "Our" president, that chinaman- thief, is over
reporting and paying homage to the communist king's office as I write this,
and our judiciary is the worst of this craven clutch who are busy attempting
to enslave us.

Fireworks. You may ask, "Does she really want to see 'bombs bursting in
air'? Besides my love of fireworks, I'd have to say no. I do want these
feudal bastards to bugger off. But will they? No. Will I be a slave? No.

So, necessarily, fireworks.

"But when a long trail of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the
same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is
their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government and to provide
Guards for their future security."

Fireworks. So be it.

I want to see Resistance. I want to hear the boom of people saying NO to
these ubiquitious ugly laws being passed with such speed: National ID,
numbers for patients and health-care providers, registering all firearms
(and no doubt fireworks as well), databasing our liberties out of existence.
I want to see the cherry bombs of resistance, the mortars and shells of
saying "No, I won't obey your totalitarian law." I want to see more orange
ribbon No National ID campaigns. I want to see the star shells and red
bursts of civil and not so civil disobediance. Say NO, the most powerful
word in the English language.

Perhaps our "rulers" will take a hint from our innocent fireworks. I doubt
it. But if they don't, then let the real fireworks begin.

Vive la Resistance!

FRIDAY

1999


An urgent message from
WorldNetDaily Editor Joseph Farah
Support the Western Journalism Center
-- now more than ever





Dear friends:

WorldNetDaily.com is on the verge of making media history -- jumping from
non-profit status to for-profit and the chance to attract investment
capital.

But it's a complicated, time-consuming and expensive process. It has taken
longer and cost more than I ever imagined it would when we set out on this
course. Thus, Western Journalism Center's available resources are nearly
depleted. Unless our readers respond as they have in the past to such
emergencies, Western Journalism Center may be forced to cut staff and
services -- even services related to the production of WorldNetDaily.

But it doesn't have to be that way. It won't take much of an effort by our
readers to keep us afloat. In fact, if every loyal WorldNetDaily reader gave
a one-time, minimum, tax-deductible contribution of $5, Western Journalism
Center would have enough money for a year's worth of operations.

Is there anyone reading this message who can't afford to give $5 for such a
worthy cause -- such a noble endeavor, one that is making such a profound
impact on our culture, on our world?

So what do you say, friends? Can you help us out? We need a little boost to
get us from here to there. At that point, we believe the marketplace will
provide us with all we need to make both WorldNetDaily and the Western
Journalism Center viable for the long term.

Our online store will allow you to make a custom contribution of any
multiple of $5 -- by changing the quantity option on the order form to
support Western Journalism Center. If you use our toll-free order line to
place your credit-card donation, call 1-800-952-5595. If you prefer to
snail-mail a check, the address is:

Western Journalism Center
P.O. Box 2450
Fair Oaks, CA 95628

Many thanks in advance to all of you who choose to help us in an hour of
need.

Sincerely,

Joseph Farah

[CTRL] Yah Lin Charlie Trie [little rock frycook]

1999-06-12 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

"Once a Triad, always a Triad."

Charlie Trie

By late winter of 1996, when the PRC was trying to derail Taiwan's
democratic elections by firing missiles into nearby Pacific waters, the PLA
also had nuclear missiles targeted on Los Angeles. And it threatened to use
them to force the United States to back down from its historic commitment to
the independence of anti-Communist Taiwan. The threat worked. It was not
delivered through public or diplomatic channels, but by a fry cook from a
Chinese restaurant in Little Rock, who had no serious education and no
foreign policy experience. This man placed a strategic memo in front of the
president at a time of International crisis, resulting in a reply that
changed a long established element of foreign policy. Only in Bill Clinton's
America. The messenger was Yah Lin "Charlie Trie," Chinese gangster, Little
Rock chef,DNC fund raiser, and current criminal defendant. To Trie, the
president of the United States is "Lao Ke" or "Old Clinton." According to
the Los Angeles Times, "When they meet, the two men embrace like lost
brothers." Trie belongs to a secret Chinese criminal society: he is a member
of the "Four Seas" Triad gang. William Triplett and Edward Timperlake
authors of "Year of the Rat" uncovered this unsavory fact in private
conversations with senior Taiwanese officials. They did not take the charge
lightly and confirmed Trie's Triad connection after conferring with informed
persons in Taiwan and other credible media sources who for understandable
reasons [Triad "soldiers" are extremely creative killers] remain unnamed.
Trie was born in Taichung, Taiwan, on August 15, 1949; he emigrated to the
United States, settling in Little Rock to work with his sister Dailin
Outlaw; he worked his way up from busboy to cook to co-owner, with his
sister, of the Fu Lin Chinese Restaurant. His Taiwan background tells us
more. He grew up in a military housing environment known on Taiwan for
producing individuals with a somewhat casual attitude toward the law. He was
one of what the Asia Times called "children of mainlanders who had followed
the Nationalist Government's retreat to Taiwan in 1949 and had begun
[criminal Triad activity] by engaging in street fights and the collection of
protection money." Apparently allowed to lie low in Little Rock, Trie became
of service when the permanent campaign began to accelerate Clinton's
political fortunes in Arkansas. He began to befriend the young and obviously
ambitious politician as soon as he arrived in Little Rock. The friendship
grew, it seems they traveled together to Taiwan while Clinton was governor.
By the time Bill Clinton took the oath of office as president, he was
perfectly positioned to help his friend Charlie, and vice versa. As tool for
the PRC and the Triads, Trie had the advantage of not having to face the
question of "where he came from." He had been in Little Rock since sometime
in the late 1970's, and had known the Clintons for almost as long. His
relationship with them was not something that, on its face, cried out for
explanation. Thus, Trie was the perfect Triad/PRC messenger and "agent in
place," ready to be reactivated without suspicion. As the Canadian study of
Triad behavior points out, "Once a Triad, always a Triad." At some point
around 1992, Trie acquired a business partner-Ng Lapseng, the Triad
connected tycoon from Macau. Trie and Ng went into the real estate business.
They had no success in the U.S. real estate market, but they didn't really
need it; Ng had and has plenty of successful businesses in Macau. This fact
becomes important when we turn to Trie's mysterious donation to the Clinton
Legal Defense Trust on March 21, 1996. Their U. S. real estate business, it
seems, was a cover-a "loss leader" for their political influence.

 United States, Communist China,  Taiwan

Ever since Chinese anticommunists fled to Taiwan to escape Mao's advancing
armies in 1949, the United States has guaranteed Taiwan's independence
against Communist China's threats of forcible "reunification." President
Eisenhower's policy was "not to let the ChiComs get away with murder in the
China Sea." Nor would he " sit idly by and permit the Reds to build up any
large force on the mainland for an invasion." From Ike, skip ahead 3
decades. In March 1996 Taiwan was preparing for a national ritual that the
PRC seems to find inherently menacing, elections. For the previous 4 month,s
stories had been flying in the Hong Kong press to the effect that the PRC
would strike Taiwan militarily if Taiwan went through with its balloting.
What the PLA did, when Taiwan elections proceeded on schedule, was to give a
precision display of the accuracy of its intermediate range ballistic
missiles [IRBM]: it " bracketed" Taiwan with them, firing a few into the
Pacific just off the north and south ends of

II, REGNERY

A Triad ceremony called "The Thirty Six Oaths of The Hung Mun" sets forth in
detail the rules for a member of a Triad.

Rule #18:  "If I am arrested after committing an offense I must accept my
punishment and not try to place the blame on my sworn brothers.  If I do so
I will be killed by five thunderbolts."

A VERY BRIEF HISTORY OF TRIADS

Abstracted from "Amsterdam: Continental Cancer", Chapter 12 of "Triad
Takeover, A Terrifying Account of the Spread of Triad Crime in the West"
by David Black, Sidgwick  Jackson, London, 1991. ISBN 0 283 99938 1

The commonly accepted myth about triads is that they began as a resistance
movement to the Manchu emperors. The Manchu were from a country north of
China (Manchuria) and were seen as foreign rulers, who took China's northern
capital (Peking) by force, and established their dynasty in 1674.

In the thirteen year of rule of the second Manchu emperor (Kiang Hsi), a
monastery of fighting monks ("Siu Lam") were recruited by the emperor to
defeat a rebellion in Fukien. These monasteries received some imperial power
as a reward. Due to court jealousies, these Fukien Buddhist monks were then
themselves seen as a threat, and an army was sent to suppress them. Eighteen
monks escaped, but only 5 survived further, who are thought to have founded
5 monasteries, and five secret societies, dedicated to overthrowing the
Manchu (also known as the Ching) dynasty, and restoring the previous Chinese
Ming dynasty, which was seen as a golden age for China. Their motto became
"Crush the Ch'ing, establish the Ming".

The family name of the Ming emperors was "Hung", and their colour was red,
so both Hung and red are associated with Chinese secret societies. The
societies called themselves the "Hung Mun". Secret codes were developed, to
frustrate the emperor's spies. However, this secrecy, and the martial arts
training, eventually led to the associations being used for criminal
purposes, instead of political ones. During this period many Hung Mun were
seen as protectors of the people against a repressive and sometimes vicious
regime of the emperor.

These secret societies played roles in several rebellions against the
Manchus, notably the White Lotus Society rebellion in Szechuan, Hupeh and
Shansi in the mid-1790's; the "Cudgels" uprising in Kwangsi province, 1847
to 1850; and Hung Hsiu Chuan's Kwangsi-based rebellion 1851-1865. Hung
called himself Christ's brother, and rebellion (called T'ai Ping) was
crushed with the aid of the Western powers. The Boxer Rebellion in Peking in
1896-1900, involved the White Lotus Society, as well as other triads called
the "Big Swords" and the "Red Fists". Sun Yat Sen, the founder of Republican
China, was allied with the Hsing Chung triad society, in his 1906 rebellion.
Meanwhile, the Western powers and Japan virtually raped China, enforcing
opium drug sales by war, stealing gold and heritage antiques, and demanding
huge recompensation for any affront.

The Manchus (the Ch'ing) were overthrown in 1911, but there were no Mings
left to restore.

Sun Yat Sen's successor was warlord Yuan Shik Kai, who worked with the
triads in corruption. The Nationalist government set up in 1927 in Nanking
was headed by a known killer and criminal member of the Shang Hai Green
Gang, Chiang Kai Shek. The triads took over the government of southern
China, and fought the Communists, later under Mao Tse Tung, for total
control. The Western powers used this "Green Tang" organized crime group to
suppress any labour unrest, and to kill off communists.

When the Japanese invaded most major Chinese cities in World War Two, the
Triads offered to work for them instead. In Hong Kong, the Triads ran
criminal enterprises for the Japanese. The Japanese united the gangs under
an association called the "Hing Ah Kee Kwan" (Asia Flourishing
Organization). The gangsters were used to help police the residents of Hong
Kong, and to suppress any anti-Japanese activity. The gangs were paid
through a Japanese front company, called Lee Yuen Company.

Following World War Two, the target of the West and the Triads became
Communists again, and Chiang Kai Shek's nationalist government campaigned to
increase Triad membership. In Southern China, this campaign was under
Nationalist army lieutenant general, Kot Siu Wong, who had his headquarters
at number 14, Po Wah Road, Canton. This is where the name of the "14 K"
triad is thought to have originated. It was estimated that in 1947, there
were 300,000 Triad members in Hong Kong alone.

When Mao Tse Tung's communists were victorious by 1949, these Triad
nationalists were dispersed to Hong Kong, Macao, Thailand, San Francisco,
Vancouver, and Perth Australia. [The remnants of Chiang Kai Shek's KMT

Asian Street Gangs and
Organized Crime in Focus

A Rising Threat From the Far East

On February 9th of this year, two young men of a criminal bent burst through
the doors of the Chinatown Community Center at 250 W. 22nd Street and
threatened the directors, Mark Lee and Houlin Li, with physical harm unless
they immediately agreed to cancel a neighborhood festival which they deemed
objectionable. The two offenders identified as members of the Hip Sing and
On Leong organizations were arrested later that day by Chicago Police
assigned to the 21st District, and charged with acts of intimidation.
Seventeen other men were picked up for similar offenses at the Chinese New
Year celebration in this secular, highly insulated community where
close-mouthed secrecy prevails.

Behind the pleasing facade of Asian restaurants, bakeries, herbal medicine
drug stores, and gift shops pandering to suburbanites and tourists,
investigators have been tracking a major heroin trafficking operation
involving the importation of multiple kilos of heroin brought into the
neighborhood for resale on the street.

These incidents underscore the ever-evolving, ever changing face of
organized crime in Chicago - the rise of Asian street gangs.

The Chicago Police Department’s Asian Task Force, formed in October 1989,
has been disbanded in favor of an “International Enterprise Crime Task
Force,” headquartered out of 219 S. Dearborn and under the auspices of the
FBI and the Illinois State Police

The tide of foreign nationals pouring into this city from Southeast Asia,
the Caribbean, Mexico, and South America have forced law
enforcementofficially to divert thinly stretched resources across the board
to counter each new threat.

Skilled investigators like Pat McCarthy of the Chicago Police Department are
constantly on the trail of Asian gangbangers, but their task is never an
easy one because of the mobility of the criminals they deal with. Very often
a gangbanger from another city will arrive in Chicago, complete a specific
“job,” and slip away in the night without leaving behind a clue as to their
identity. This is particularly true in the growing Vietnamese community.

Asian crime is difficult to investigate, even harder to prosecute because of
the reluctance of the victims to approach the police. The vast majority of
the people the gangs target are Asian, and because of long standing mistrust
and suspicion directed against the police and the government - attitudes
that took shape overseas in the face of brutal political oppression - it is
often hard to gauge the extent of the local problem.

Immigrant Belizians, Hmong, ethnic Chinese, and Vietnamese have organized
street gangs that in some ways, constitute a greater danger to the public
safety than Larry Hoover’s army of drug runners who peddle dime bags in the
projects. The Belizians, it was pointed out by Detective John Sebeck of the
Chicago Police Department at a recent gang crimes seminar sponsored by the
National Gang Crime Research Center at Chicago State University, shoot first
and ask questions later.

The Chinese gangs in Chicago have evolved out of two old and historic
community organizations - the Hip Sing are active in the Uptown community
along the lakefront. The On Leong, a Tong sharing the same name as the On
Leong Merchant’s Association, are a South Side group.

The first American-based “Tong” - the literal translation means “meeting
hall,” is an extension of the merchant associations that were first
organized in 1847 in San Francisco as a means of preserving cultural
identity and providing a social outlet. Not every member of a Tong is
criminally inclined. Not every Tong however, has peaked the interest of
federal and local law enforcement as the On Leong right here in Chicago.

In the early 1990s, the On Leong Merchant’s Association was the focus of a
federal racketeering trial that exposed the links between the Chicago outfit
and a multi-million-dollar gambling ring headquartered along 22nd Street. On
Leong traces its Chicago roots to the 19th century where it existed as a
social and benevolent organization to indoctrinate Chinese immigrants to the
American way of life.

During the 1991 federal racketeering trial of 11 Chinese businessmen accused
of running a gambling game from inside the On Leong “casino”- a continuing
enterprise that netted $2 million dollars between 1974 and a police raid in
April 1986 - prosecutors secured conviction on tax conspiracy charges
against Wilson Moy, often described as the unofficial “mayor” of the
Chinatown community.

Former mob attorney and federal informant Robert Cooley testified during the
trial that Moy and another man gave him $100,000 to pass on to former First
Ward Alderman Fred Roti and Pat Marcy, the mobbed-up secretary of the First
Ward Democratic Organization in order to “influence” the outcome of the 1981
William Chin murder case in the Cook County Circuit Court.

 Hillary's appetite for Apple is voracious


By Barbara J. Saffir
THE WASHINGTON TIMES


First lady Hillary Rodham Clinton has made 66 solo trips to New York state
at taxpayer expense since 1993, 10 of them in the first 5 and a half months
of this year, a review of travel records by The Washington Times shows.
 Over the previous six years, Mrs. Clinton averaged nine solo trips a
year to New York. That rate has doubled so far this year as she edges closer
to running for the Senate seat being vacated by Daniel Patrick Moynihan, a
fellow Democrat.
 Spokeswoman Marsha Berry insists the first lady's stepped-up travel to
New York is not related to her likely Democratic candidacy for the open
Senate seat.
 "There are a lot of people who have asked her to participate in events
in New York," Ms. Berry said.
 Neither the White House nor the Democratic National Committee (DNC)
will disclose how much the first lady's trips cost. Nor will they say
exactly how much the government has been reimbursed for the political
portions of her travel as she stumps for other candidates and promotes
herself.
 This refusal, despite a federal law mandating such reimburse-
 ments, infuriates some government watchdogs.
 "We should know where every nickel goes . . . no matter who is in
power," said Charles Lewis, executive

-- Continued from Front Page --
director of the Center for Public Integrity, a nonpartisan research group
that has studied the costs of campaign travel. "The average American does
not want to subsidize someone seeking partisan office."
 The Times' review of White House travel summaries and Mrs. Clinton's
public schedule shows that she:
Favored New York as a domestic travel destination this year over all other
states. She traveled to New York 11 times -- just once with President
Clinton -- while boosting her trips to neighboring New Jersey to three
visits and going only once or twice to 11 other states.
Headlined at least 12 Democratic fund-raisers in New York so far this year,
including events for five incumbent members of Congress.
Traveled to New York without the president a total of 66 times since 1993,
more by far than other favorite states such as California, Florida and
Illinois. (Counting trips with Mr. Clinton, she went to New York 82 times.)

 New York Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, a likely Republican contender for
the Senate seat, has poked barbed fun at Mrs. Clinton's interest in running
for federal office in the state without ever having lived there.
 "I think that Hillary wanting to come to New York is a really fine
thing," Mr. Giuliani said Monday night before a Republican dinner in Niagara
County. "She can look around, try to find out something about the state . .
. if she wants to live and work in New York like other people, that's
terrific. But there's another question whether you should represent a state
you never lived in, you never worked in and you know nothing about."
 The first lady's three next most-popular destinations since 1993 were
California (38 trips), her home state of Illinois (28) and Florida (26).
Arkansas, her adopted home, warranted 18 trips. On many trips, she
accompanied the president.
 Mrs. Clinton returned Thursday from her 10th solo trip to New York
since January.
 Travel records indicate her official events in New York as first lady
continue to focus on issues she has stressed for years -- education,
children and health care.
 But she also is cramming her schedule day and night with political
appearances on behalf of Democratic candidates -- stops that could boost her
own unannounced Senate candidacy.
 She appeared Wednesday at a fund-raiser in Binghamton for Rep. Maurice
D. Hinchey, New York Democrat, and attended a $5,000-a-plate DNC fund-raiser
that targeted homosexual donors and was held at a private residence in New
York City. In April, atop the World Trade Center, she helped raise money for
Rep. Jerrold Nadler, a New York Democrat who supported the president during
his impeachment trial.
 Also this year, the first lady addressed loyalists at the DNC's Women's
Leadership Forum and headlined a state Democratic Party event. She helped
attract donors for Rep. John J. LaFalce, New York Democrat, and for Rep.
Nita M. Lowey, the New York Democrat who last week said she would not
challenge Mrs.

Clinton wouldn't back Navy officer after laser attack


By Bill Gertz
THE WASHINGTON TIMES


Bill Gertz, defense and national security reporter for The Washington Times,
details the motives and dangers of the Clinton administration's national
defense policies in a new book, "Betrayal: How the Clinton Administration
Undermined American Security" (Regnery Publishing Inc.).

he phone rang in the middle of the night at the Canadian home of U.S. Navy
Lt. Jack Daly.
"The Kapitan Man is inbound about to enter the strait," the watch officer
told Lt. Daly over the phone from the joint intelligence center at Canada's
military base near Esquimault, on Vancouver Island.
 The Kapitan Man for years had masqueraded as a merchant vessel but
actually was one of two Russian spy ships that tracked nine U.S. nuclear
submarines based nearby in Bangor, Wash.
 Now the Kapitan Man was at the mouth of the 100-mile Juan de Fuca
Strait, heading into Puget Sound.
 Lt. Daly's orders: secretly photograph it from above with a digital
camera as part of the crew of a Canadian helicopter.
 It was 3:30 a.m. April 4, 1997. The mission would change Lt. Daly's
life -- and his opinion of the U.S. government and the Navy he loved.
 He showered, grabbed his flight suit and headed for the base as reports
on the Kapitan Man's movements continued to flow from the Coast Guard.
 Lt. Daly sat in a jump seat on the port side of the CH-124 helicopter,
hooked up to a safety line, as the aircraft took off about noon and flew
southeast from Victoria International Airport.
 "We've got an outbound boomer on the surface," Capt. Pat Barnes, the
pilot, announced as they reached the water.
 The huge, black submarine was the USS Ohio, which had dropped off an
ill crew member at its home port, Bangor. Because its missions are secret,
the nuclear sub was not supposed to be on the surface. It had just had a
direct encounter with the Kapitan Man.
 "If we had launched five minutes sooner, I would have been able to
photograph both vessels in the same frame," Lt. Daly said.
 Three merchant ships came into view, the Kapitan Man in the middle. At
Lt. Daly's direction, Capt. Barnes made a single circle over the
U.S.-flagged container ship President Jackson and then headed east for three
passes of the Kapitan Man.
 After three circles, the chopper flew directly over the top of the
ship. It was about 12:30 p.m.
 "As far as I knew," Lt. Daly said, "the camera was working and the
mission was successful."

'You better take a look'
  Lt. Daly, a foreign intelligence liaison officer, was assigned to
Maritime Forces Pacific, a joint command staffed by about 1,500 Canadian
navy, air force and army personnel who defend Canada's West Coast and work
closely with the U.S. Navy.
 In an informal debriefing back at the airfield, the crew reported
having seen someone on the bridge of the Kapitan Man holding what appeared
to be binoculars. A Canadian intelligence officer saw a man on deck, his
arms crossed over his head.
 About 4 p.m. at Esquimault, Lt. Daly handed the digital camera to U.S.
Navy Chief Petty Officer Scott Tabor, who was trained in imagery technology
and analysis. Chief Tabor downloaded the images to an office computer.
 About 5:30 p.m., Chief Tabor walked into Lt. Daly's office.
 "Are you having any problems with your eyes?" he asked.
 "Yeah, my right eye is bugging me," Lt. Daly replied. "I guess I must
have gotten something in it when I stuck my head out the door because of the
wind."
 "Are you experiencing any kind of headache?"
 "Yeah, I have a real bad headache."
 "Well, I think you better take a look at this."
 Chief Tabor handed him a photo. It showed a red dot of light on the
bridge of the Kapitan Man.
 "I think you may have caught a laser beam in this picture," Chief Tabor
said. "I know this is supposed to be the running-light area, but the
signature of the light in this picture just doesn't look right to me."

'Definitive evidence'
  The former Soviet Union often used lasers for military purposes.
During the Cold War, the Russians fired lasers at pilots. Air crews had been
warned to don protective eye gear, but pilots spotting intelligence ships
nevertheless were injured.

Reed Irvine's Letter to the Chairman of CNN

From: Accuracy In Media

June 16, 1998

Mr. Thomas Johnson
Chairman
CNN
P.O. Box 105366
Atlanta, GA 30348-5366

Dear Thomas:

The establishment media are questioning Matt Drudge's right to claim to be a
journalist because he "published" a story about Sidney Blumenthal that
turned out to be false. Drudge admitted his error and apologized the day
after he put the Blumenthal story in his report. I hope that after you
examine the evidence laid out in this letter you will follow Matt Drudge's
example and retract the false charges about Operation Tailwind made in the
segment titled "Valley of Death" on NewsStand CNN/TIME on Sunday, June 7 and
essentially repeated on June 14 and issue an apology. I would go further and
suggest that those responsible for this journalistic atrocity should be
given their walking papers.

CNN took the story of an incredibly dangerous operation in which the Special
Forces exhibited the courage, stamina and skill for which they are famous
and converted it into a defamatory attack on the Army, the Special Forces
and the United States. You made three charges:

1. The purpose of the operation was to find and kill American defectors
working with the enemy in Laos.

Comment: We have talked to seven of the men who were on the Tailwind team.
All deny that the mission had anything to do with finding and killing
American defectors. All agree that the purpose of the mission was to blow up
a bridge and disrupt traffic on the Ho Chi Minh trail. The idea was to
create a diversion that would relieve pressure being put on CIA-backed Hmong
tribesmen by the North Vietnamese army. They also say that the base camp
they destroyed on the fourth day was stumbled upon by accident when they
were trying to get to the landing zone where helicopters were to evacuate
them.

To justify the charge that the mission was to kill Americans, you rely on a
statement by James Cathey, who claims to have been an Air Force enlisted man
in charge of coordinating resupply of the Tailwind team. His claim to have
done this from on the ground in Laos is considered ludicrous by Special
Forces veterans, but that aside, he was in no position to know the purpose
of the mission, and he admitted that what he told you was only speculation.
You have not named a single person who is in a position to know the purpose
of the mission who has confirmed Cathey's speculation. Inexcusably, you
failed to report that those who were in a position to know all reject it.

2. Deadly sarin nerve gas was used against a village, killing women and
children.

Comment: You do not cite a single source for either the claim that sarin was
dropped on this "village" or that women and children lived there. No one who
was there that I have talked to saw any women or children. I am told that
the word for this camp in Vietnamese is binh tram. That translates as
logistical sub-headquarters and they were located all along the Ho Chi Minh
trail. It was not a village. No one that I have interviewed believed that
the camp had been bombed, strafed and gassed the night before they
discovered it. The Tailwind team camped overnight very close to the camp.
One said as close as 200 yards. They discovered it because they heard dogs
barking. They moved in, shot up the camp and killed everyone who did not
escape by fleeing. Had there been any bombing, strafing or gassing the night
before, not only would they have known it, but they would have been in grave
danger of being killed by it. That alone is evidence that it didn't happen.

3. Sarin was dropped on North Vietnamese troops who were trying to prevent
the evacuation of our commandos, many of whom lacked usable gas masks and
inhaled the lethal gas that drifted in their direction.

Comment: This charge is supported by only one member of the Tailwind team
that I have spoken to, Michael Hagen. He insists that the gas was sarin
because in recent years he has experienced serious health problems that his
doctor says are the result of exposure to organo-phosphates, which is what
sarin is. Hagen is bitter because the government refuses to accept this
diagnosis. He says some of the other team members have experienced health
problems which his doctor also attributes to organo-phosphate exposure. He
mentioned Jim Brevelle, who had already told me that he was sure the gas was
CS. Sarin is regarded as an effective weapon because it is supposed to kill
quickly, not 30 years after exposure. Gen. Walt Busbee, the Pentagon's
expert in chemical weapons, says that tracking of those who have survived
exposure to sarin shows that they do not experience any long-lasting

We don't know
if voting works




© 1999 WorldNetDaily.com

I've had a great many people contact me in the past few days complaining
that I'm not being very realistic when I admonish this nation to "throw out
the professional politicians" during the November 2000 election.
Having said that, I will admit -- based on results over the past few
decades -- the prospect of seriously changing the electorate through the
ballot box seems dim indeed. But there is another aspect to these results.

Could today's ballot results be having a less-than-desirable effect on the
political process because most of us aren't bothering to go to the polls? I
wonder if most people even realize that this kind of pitiful voter turnout
is exactly what our career politicians hope for every year.

It's true. Incumbents count on poor voter turnouts because statistically
speaking, incumbents benefit when voter turnout is low. Historically, when
more of us turn out to vote, we routinely change the players in Washington.
You may remember the most recent example of this: The so-called Republican
Revolution in 1994. It happened because after only two years of Bill
Clinton, Americans en masse were already prepared to make drastic changes
and showed up in record numbers at polling stations all across the country.
The result was a GOP-controlled Congress for the first time in over 40 years
that was reelected, for the most part, in 1996 and 1998.

Were these examples just flukes? In reality we really don't know because the
last few generations of Americans haven't consistently shown up at the polls
in large numbers. Consequently, there has been no way to gauge the very real
power "ordinary" Americans possess in regard to selecting those we want to
represent us in government.

I personally know -- as do you -- many people who either never bother to
vote at all in any election, or vote very infrequently, perhaps only when
there is a "pet" issue to consider in a local ballot. What a shame that is.

It's a sad testament to the United States that these days, in national
elections, we consider it a good turnout if just 35 percent of eligible
voters bother to utilize our God-given right and privilege to choose whom we
want to lead us. If only a fraction of us who can ever bother to vote, how
in the world can we then say that "we the people" have selected the leaders
we send to higher office? "We the people" aren't doing anything except
letting a minority of us choose an even smaller number of select people who
are supposed to represent all of us. It doesn't make sense.

For years Americans have complained that the federal government doesn't
legislate on behalf of the majority anymore. Maybe that's because only
portions of eligible Americans are even willing to help select those people
we routinely criticize. If we value the kind of representation we are
supposed to get, then we ought to value the process in which we select these
people. If we want to reserve the right to criticize (or suggest better ways
of doing things) then we ought to participate in the selection process. If
we don't, then in essence we are not criticizing the lawmaker, per se; we
are criticizing the selection of that lawmaker by a minority of voting
Americans. That isn't the same thing because the lawmaker knows he or she
can still count on the same few people voting for them the next time around
if this trend doesn't reverse itself.

I know there are many obstacles to making responsible choices for leaders to
lead us. I realize the dominance of the two-party system, the bias of the
mainstream media and their selective reporting, the occasional instances of
voter fraud, America's addiction to the five-second sound bite, and so on.
But we have to remember that we're citizens of this country, and this
country belongs to us. With that also comes the responsibility of doing
whatever it takes to find out how your representatives feel on the issues
that are important to you.

That isn't easy. But it is doable. We just have to commit ourselves to a few
things, like our forefathers did.

For one thing -- and this is especially true of any incumbent -- don't be
satisfied with sound bite explanations for complex problems and issues. If
your representative says, for instance, "We need more gun control," you need
to find out why that lawmaker or candidate feels that way. While you'll
probably never get to talk to the candidate yourself, sometimes just calling
his or her campaign headquarters (where the call takers have been given
"position statements" to read from) will be sufficient. Dig; don't just
settle for some stock answer. Find out the details of their positions and
what led them to formulate their positions.

Secondly, turn the heat up on your current representatives and senators.

 Tick, tick, tick




One simple word, repeated three times. You knew before reading the first
word of this column that it would somehow touch upon time.
Who among us does not remember the quiet, persistent sound of that clock in
our childhood bedrooms, ticking softly away, as our household went to sleep
around us? The 11:55 freight train, the sound from its horn streaming on
ahead of it, parting the night: three ticks of sound, two ticks of silence
and then over again, the train on its way into the distance.

Or the city, reluctantly and restlessly tossing and turning before settling
into fitful slumber late into the morning. The windows open on a warm night,
neighbors in the adjacent apartment snoring, or pacing the floor, a crying
infant being comforted.

My dictionary has a column of definitions for "time." They run the gamut
from philosophical, "a nonspatial continuum in which events occur in
apparently irreversible succession," to the mundane: "by paying in
installments." But I wonder -- is not more of the truth of life wrapped up
in the latter?

Our lives are lived in installments; we call them days, hours, minutes and
seconds. Tick, tick, tick. ... The 86,400 single-second "ticks" that
comprised yesterday were merely an installment payment we made on that box
of dreams we longingly refer to as "our future." There it sits on the shelf,
behind the counter at the Shoporama. Sometimes we see it, wrapped in its
glittering packaging, as we hand the clerk the next installment of our
lives, and he writes out our receipt. Our retirement, the day the children
graduate and leave home, that cruise we've been meaning to take. ... Soon we
will be able to pick it up and handle it, enjoy it, show it off proudly to
our friends. The young clerk smiles and remarks, "Only twelve more
installments until your retirement is all paid for. Thank you for spending
your life at Shoporama!"

It is said that modern men and women value time above all else. America has
become a service economy: people doing things that other people don't want
to do, don't know how to do, or don't have time to do -- but will pay to
have done. Dinner prepared at the burger palace and eaten in the car on the
way home; daycare for lonely children while both parents pursue their
careers as taxpayers; 18-year-old lovers and "it's my right abortions" for
our 14-year-old daughters because daddy never had have time to hold her in
his arms and talk to her. Our time is so valuable, and the Shoporama
installment payments on our "layaway tomorrows" must be met.

Who among us has not wondered if time is not God's cruel joke on the human
race? We bemoan the past; we fret about the future. And yet of God the
psalmist tells us, "For a thousand years in thy sight [are but] as yesterday
when it is past, and [as] a watch in the night" (Psalm 90).

And yet Jesus, who seemed to know a lot about God, focused most often on the
present moment. His biographer, Luke, records that as a twelve-year-old boy
lost in Jerusalem, Jesus was found three days later by his frantic parents,
sitting at the feet of the teachers in the temple courts, questioning them.
"Why were you searching for me?" he asked Mom and Dad. "Didn't you know I
had to be in my Father's house?" Tomorrow would come, but He was occupied
with the people around him today. And so it was throughout Jesus' ministry:
"time," while it occasionally referenced the prior or the past, most often
described a specific piece of the here-and-now. In fact, when his followers
pressed him about the future, Jesus told them, "Take ye heed, watch and
pray: for ye know not when the time is" (Mark 13:33).

So here is a great paradox: We who have instantaneous worldwide
communications, the greatest labor-saving devices in the history of the
world, and the atomic clock that measures time down to the decaying atoms of
our universe -- we have no time for the people inhabiting the moment in
which we live. Yet the One who predated time and inhabits eternity came to
earth and lived with people in the present. He had no money, no
organization, and no power. He lived only 33 years. He never worried about
tomorrow, and there is no record of him in the Shoporama. But 2,000 years
later, no individual has ever made a greater impact upon men and women down
through history than Jesus Christ. His final word on time was recorded by
the Apostle John: "And he saith to me, Seal not the words of the prophecy of
this book: for the time is at hand" (Revelation 22:10).

[CTRL] ***10 Most Wanted***[federal murderers,robbers,perverts]vote2000!

1999-06-10 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

Why no government murderers, robbers, or
perverts on the FBI's 10 Most Wanted list?

WASHINGTON, DC -- The most shocking thing about the FBI's new
"10 Most Wanted" list is all the dangerous criminals who are not on it:
The criminals who just happen to work for the federal government, the
Libertarian Party said today.

"From murder to kidnapping to sexual assault -- many government
employees have committed what would be considered heinous crimes if
perpetrated by ordinary citizens," said Steve Dasbach, the party's
national director. "But curiously, none of those government desperados
made it onto the FBI's list."

On Monday, the FBI released the latest edition of its famous 10
Most Wanted list, which included a frightful line-up of murderers,
international terrorists, robbers, and bombers.

And that's good, said Dasbach: "Every person on that list who
committed a crime of violence should be punished; justice demands it.
But justice also demands that everyone who commits a crime of violence
be treated equally -- even if they happen to be a politician, the head
of a federal agency, or a government bureaucrat."

With that in mind, Dasbach offered a Libertarian version of the
FBI's 10 Most Wanted list: Government criminals who weren't on the
list, but should be.

1. U.S. Customs Commissioner Raymond Kelly. Crime: Accessory to
sexual assault. "Last year, U.S. Customs employees under Kelly's
command ordered 2,797 international airline passengers to strip off
their clothes at gunpoint, intimately groped them, and conducted
humiliating body cavity searches," said Dasbach. "Ordinary Americans
who behave this way are called sex criminals, but Customs inspectors
who behave like perverts are given promotions."

2. Justice Department Asset Forfeiture Division Chief Jerry
McDowell. Crime: Grand larceny. "Last year, the Justice Department
confiscated 42,454 cars, boats, houses, and other belongings -- valued
at over $604 million -- from Americans who were never convicted of any
crime," said Dasbach. "That's theft on a mind-boggling scale, and makes
Jerry McDowell one of the criminal masterminds of the century."

3. Marine Corporal Clemente Banuelos. Crime: Murder. "In 1997,
Banuelos and three fellow Marines on an anti-drug patrol in Redford,
Texas, gunned down 18-year-old Ezequiel Hernandez as he was herding
goats near the Mexican border," noted Dasbach. "Why is cold-blooded
murder not considered murder when committed by someone wearing a Marine
Corps insignia?"

4. President Bill Clinton. Crime: International terrorism.
"Osama bin Laden made the FBI's list for killing 224 people in embassy
bombings -- yet Clinton has killed literally thousands of innocent
civilians during his undeclared and unconstitutional war in
Yugoslavia," said Dasbach. "That kind of mass murder of innocents
should not go unpunished by a civilized nation."

5. Former NHTSA director Joan Claybrook. Crime: Accessory to
murder. "As head of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
in the 1970s, Claybrook forced automakers to install air bags, many of
which have malfunctioned and exploded, killing 115 people," said
Dasbach. "If Death-by-Regulation isn't a crime, it should be -- and
Claybrook should be the first person prosecuted."

6. Social Security Commissioner Kenneth S. Apfel. Crime:
Investment fraud. "If an ordinary American did what Apfel and his
Social Security co-conspirators do -- run a retirement program where
the only assets are billions of dollars of IOUs -- they would be in
jail faster than you can yell 'AARP!' " said Dasbach. "Why is the
government's Ponzi Scheme, where new investors are paid with money from
old investors, not shut down like any other criminal pyramid scheme
would be?"

7. Attorney General Janet Reno. Crime: Conspiracy to commit
murder. "Not even the Mafia would do what Janet Reno ordered done on
April 19, 1993: Assault a religious compound with tanks, military
helicopters, and poison gas," said Dasbach. "Yet that's what happened
in Waco, Texas -- killing 69 men, women, and children. Son of Sam is in
jail for committing serial murder: Why isn't Janet Reno?"

8. FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi. Crime: Murder. "In 1992, Horiuchi
used a high-powered rifle to assassinate Vicki Weaver in Ruby Ridge,
Idaho, as she stood in her kitchen holding her 11-month-old infant
daughter," said Dasbach. "You may not like the political views of her
husband, white separatist Randy Weaver, but that shouldn't have given
government employees the right to declare open season on his family."

9. Drug czar Barry McCaffrey. Crime: Kidnapping, false
imprisonment. "Under McCaffrey's direction, 695,200 people were
arrested in 1997 for marijuana offenses, 87% of whom were accused of
mere possession," noted Dasbach. "For this victimless crime, these
people were arrested at gunpoint, dumped into jail cells, and deprived

Just when you thought you had seen it all, namely the U.S. President's

his assertion that his perjury and obstruction of justice are nobody's

wonders in Washington might muster enough moxie to throw the criminal out of
office--just when you thought that Clinton's cunning linguistics about
Monica having sex with him but he didn't have sex with her ("It's a
miracle," Bob Bennett explained) would win the Josef Goebbels award for
creative destruction of the language- -just when you were relishing the fact
that a certain semen-stained blue dress had made this so-called "statesman"
the laughing stock of detergent ads in Tel Aviv--just when you had come to
believe there might be a modicum of sanity left in the country--the Oval
Office lunatic orders U.S. planes to bomb two foreign countries.
"National security," says the Liar. And all the way down the line: CNN:
"national security"; CBS: "national security"; NBC: "national security";
ABC: "national security".

"National security" means he has his pecker in one hand and the Red
Telephone in the other.

"Terrorists," says the red-faced Thug--the same Thug who has just spent
seven months intimidating witnesses and attempting to destroy the
reputations of all those critics who were telling the truth. And on down the
media line we hear the refrain: "Terrorists", "Terrorists", "Terrorists",
"Terrorists." This from the same "journalists" who for seven months demanded
an "open mind" about an "alleged" affair, no matter how detailed the
evidence that emerged regarding the Big Creep's oral escapades, lies, and
cover-up.

"Terrorists" means the Big Creep has decided to terrorize easy
targets--ostensibly associated with Osama bin Laden--but he'll be thinking
of Kenneth Starr all along. He's damned well going to make somebody pay for
those grand jury questions. Maybe he can have Seal Team Six slash some tires
and kill some cats while he is at it.

Yes, the U.S. was bombing "terrorist targets" in Afghanistan and the Sudan--
targets selected by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, the triumphant
heroes of Waco, Ruby Ridge, the Atlanta Olympics, TWA 800, and Filegate.
Next week the terrorist targets might be Paris and Detroit.

On Monday, the President prevaricated to the grand jury. He then
prevaricated to the nation on live TV. A big day for prevarication. But by
Wednesday it was clear that even the best of the Great Prevaricator's
mind-controlled minions were shrinking away from him.

So, on Thursday, he bombed foreigners. The Great Prevaricator appeared on TV
in Martha's Vineyard. "Bombs. Terrorists. Ugh. Umpah." He then returned to
the White House so he could appear on TV yet again for a few more lies, and
look statesmanlike, and get a blow job, and do a few lines of coke away from
Hillary. (Hillary doesn't mind: Vernon Jordan stayed behind to comfort her.
Bill's foibles give her license, you know.)

He bombed foreigners who, he said, are guilty of the U.S. embassy bombings
in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam. Now, how could he possibly know that? The very
same FBI couldn't find out what happened in Oklahoma City for months. In the
U.S., on their own home ground. But in this case, on foreign soil, what a
miracle! Once the Commander-in-Chief makes up his mind, Freeh's little
lackeys know what conclusions to draw right away. Evidence? We don't need no
stinking evidence: we have missiles.

The President is evidently insane. Is it PMS: Post- Monica Syndrome? A
protest group gathers outside the White House: "No blood for Monica," they
chant. Yes, it seems the President is having another private moment in his
private life. His alleged wife Hillary "believes in this marriage," she
claims. But not enough, apparently, to give the President the oral sex he
craves. And as for the President, well, one doubts he could stand to go
anywhere near Hillary's lap. Moreover, the nation hates him for his lying
and Monday's failed performance, and he is, well, tense. So today he's going
to kill some people instead. That'll teach them to pick on Sensitive Bill
and his little three-inch bent prick.

"Did the President perform cunnilingus on you?" the Special Prosecutor's
team asked Monica Lewinsky before the grand jury that is looking into
criminal charges against the President. Monica didn't know what the word
meant. They should have quoted Gennifer Flowers to her: "He eats pussy like
a champ." Everyone can understand that language.

"Cunnilingus" comes from the Latin cunnus, meaning vulva ("cunt"), and
lingus, from lingere, meaning to lick. The President will eat cunt, but he
won't do the decent thing and resign and eat crow. No, he's got to divert
attention from his own crimes by punishing others for theirs. And his bombs

Judge Dismisses War Powers Lawsuit
Tuesday, June 8, 1999; 11:51 a.m. EDT

WASHINGTON (AP) -- A federal judge today dismissed a lawsuit filed by a
group of House members who wanted the bombing of Yugoslavia by U.S. forces
to be declared illegal.

The lawsuit was filed by 26 lawmakers, led by Rep. Tom Campbell, R-Calif.,
who alleged that President Clinton violated the War Powers Act of 1973 by
authorizing military air strikes against Yugoslavia.

The Vietnam War-era legislation, which has been ignored widely by presidents
of both parties, requires a president to get congressional approval for the
``introduction into hostilities'' of U.S. forces for more than 60 days. The
NATO air campaign began March 24.

The members of Congress based their lawsuit on a 213-213 vote April 28 that
fell short of authorizing U.S. participation in the NATO bombing of
Yugoslavia. Clinton ignored the vote by continuing with the bombing, the
plaintiffs claimed.

U.S. District Judge Paul Friedman, in his ruling granting a White House
motion to dismiss the case, said ``congressional reaction to the airstrikes
has sent distinctly mixed messages.''

The judge noted that on May 20, Congress

passed an emergency spending bill to help pay for U.S. military involvement
in the Yugoslav conflict.

``Had the four votes been consistent and against the president's position,
and had he nevertheless persisted with air strikes in the face of such
votes, there may well have been a constitutional impasse. But Congress has
not sent such a clear, consistent message,'' Friedman said in his ruling.

He goes on to note that some of the ``213 representatives who voted against
authorizing the president's actions and against a declaration of war also
voted in favor of supporting the troops and appropriating money to fund the
conflict in Yugoslavia and against directing the president to remove the
Armed Forces from their positions.''

Friedman said that ``absent a clear impasse between the executive and
legislative branches, resort to the judicial branch is inappropriate.''

A Campbell spokesman said that lawmakers plan to appeal the ruling but
declined to comment further until officials could review the lawsuit. A
spokesman for the National Security Council was not immediately available
for comment.

THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL TRIBUNAL
FOR THE UNITED STATES
THE PROSECUTOR OF THE TRIBUNAL

AGAINST

WILLIAM JEFFERSON CLINTON
AND WILLIAM COHEN

INDICTMENT*


Charging CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY and VIOLATIONS OF THE LAWS OR CUSTOMS OF
WAR as set forth herein.

GENERAL ALLEGATIONS


William Jefferson CLINTON is President of the United States and
Commander-in-Chief of its armed forces.

William COHEN is Secretary of Defense of the United States, was formerly a
United States Senator from Maine, and in 1974 was a member of the Committee
on the Judiciary of the United States House of Representative during the
1974 impeachment proceedings against Richard M. Nixon, President of the
United States.

In July 1974 William COHEN advocated and voted for three articles of
impeachment against Richard M. Nixon. Two of said articles charged Richard
M. Nixon with crimes which he had not personally directed or known about
prior to their commission by others.

On July 30, 1974, William COHEN voted "No" against a proposed fourth article
of impeachment charging Richard M. Nixon with unlawful bombing of the
then-neutral country of Cambodia in usurpation of the United States
Constitution's delegation of the sole power to declare war to the Congress
of the United States. In explanation of his vote William COHEN stated:

While this usurpation [of Congress's war powers] may have taken place, I
happen to believe the usurpation has come about not through the boldness of
President Nixon but rather on the default and sloth of the Congress.

In 1973 William COHEN voted for the War Powers Resolution that was enacted
by the United States Congress to prohibit further usurpation of its war
powers by requiring an official act of said Congress to extend a military
attack on a foreign country for more than 60 days.

On March 24, 1999 William Jefferson Clinton ordered the military forces of
the United States to participate in an aggressive military attack on former
Yugoslavia and with the aid and abetment of William COHEN has continued the
attacks to the present, in violation of the Constitution and War Powers
Resolution of the United States.

At all times relevant to this indictment, the armed forces of the United
States have participated in aggressive military attacks on former
Yugoslavia.

As stated in paragraph 88 of the May 23, 1999 indictment of Slobodan
Milosevic et al by the International Criminal Tribunal for former
Yugoslavia:

A superior is responsible for the acts of his subordinate(s) if he knew or
had reason to know that his subordinate(s) was/were about to commit such
acts or had done so and the superior failed to take the necessary and
reasonable measures to prevent such acts or to punish the perpetrators
thereof.

The aforesaid precedents and legal principle and the allegations contained
in paragraphs 1 through 8 are re-alleged and incorporated into each of the
charges set forth below.
CHARGES


Beginning on or about March 24, 1999 and continuing until the date of this
indictment, the armed forces of the United States, acting at the direction,
with the encouragement, or with the support of William Jefferson CLINTON and
William COHEN have executed an aggressive military campaign against former
Yugoslavia based on political, racial, or religious grounds.

William Jefferson CLINTON and William COHEN have planned, instigated,
ordered, committed or otherwise aided and abetted the planning, preparation,
or execution of action which they knew, or had reason to know, would result
in the following acts.
COUNT 1

The killing, injuring, terrorizing, and destruction of the homes of
thousands of Serbian and other civilians in former Yugoslavia, including but
not limited to, such acts as:


25,000 sorties and 14,000 missiles and bombs, 4,000 of which were not
precision guided, as of May 1999;

use of anti-personnel cluster bombs that have resulted to damage to
hospitals, offices and residences of ambassadors, and the senseless and
brutal killing of innocent civilians and conscripted troops; and

the use of specific types of cluster bombs that are designed to kill and
maim humans and are condemned almost universally by other nations.
COUNT 2

The provocation of the government of former Yugoslavia to continue to
increase the murder, terrorization, and deportation of Albania civilians in
Kosovo, and such acts as are charged in the May 24, 1999 indictment of
Slobodan Milosevic et al.

COUNT 3

The usurpation of the sole power of the United States Congress to declare
war and the violation of the War Powers Resolution of the United States,
resulting in a counterproductive attack on Yugoslavia and

 BRAVE NEW SCHOOLS
Shootings a boon
to home education
More parents opt out
of system after Colorado




By Paul Chesser
© 1999 WorldNetDaily.com

Fear resulting from recent violence in public schools is sparking interest
in home schooling across the United States.
While national media figures and government officials pine for more gun
control and limiting Internet access, many parents are quietly taking
actions on their own. It is too soon after recent school shooting incidents
in Littleton, Colo., and Conyers, Ga., to measure statistically whether
parents are adopting alternative methods to educate their children, but
evidence indicates that many parents are at least considering teaching their
children at home next year.

Phone call inquiries to various state home school associations throughout
the country have jumped since the Columbine High School shootings April 20,
with some parents panic-stricken in their search to find other educational
options for their children.

"One father called us and said he couldn't do his job because he was worried
about his kids," said Mary Jo Patterson, director of the Georgia Home
Education Association.  http://www.ghea.org/
"Parents, after they've put them in school, think their kids are in some
kind of jeopardy."

She added that there are many high school students who are calling who don't
want to go back to school.

There is some consensus among home schooling advocates that the Columbine
incident has caused a greater rise in interest than any other recent school
shooting occurrence.

"This thing has got parents in a panic," said Joe Adams, a co-director of
the Christian Home Educators of Kentucky.
http://www.chek.org/

"We had a surge (of calls) after Paducah," said Adams, referring to the
December 1997 school shooting in West Paducah, Ky. "But not as big as
Littleton -- Littleton caused a burst."

Adams said he is receiving four or five e-mails daily from parents who want
to remove their children from public school.

The Home School Legal Defense Association http://www.hslda.org/
reports they are also fielding a lot more questions from concerned parents
since the Littleton incident. Many are saying it's "the straw that broke the
camel's back," according to President Michael Farris.

Some state home school organizations are also seeing large increases in
attendance at conventions this year, which are traditionally held in the
spring.

Patterson said that about 2,000 people normally attend the Georgia home
school convention, but this year over 3,000 came. The event was held on
April 23 and 24, only days after the shootings in Littleton.

Likewise, Adams is anticipating a 25 percent increase in attendance over
last year for Kentucky's convention in July.

The sense of urgency has also hit ground zero in Denver, where the Christian
Home Educators of Colorado
http://www.chec.org/
have been swarmed with inquiries. Calls have increased fivefold, from about
60 a month to over 300.

CHEC holds monthly workshops that explain home schooling laws, curriculums
and philosophies to curious parents. Participation grew from 15 in February
to 45 in May, and registration exploded to 500 for June's session.

"People are looking for solutions -- not just bulletproof vests," said Kevin
Swanson, Executive Director of CHEC.

Parents seeking advice about home schooling from advocacy organizations are
getting a consistent message: "Go for it." However, the message also
contains a caveat: "Be prepared."

Farris wrote in a May 4 commentary for the Washington Times that "people
should not choose to home school out of a momentary panic resulting from
watching the news about Colorado. You won't have the self-discipline to
succeed if that is your sole motivation."

In an interview with WorldNetDaily Farris added that HSLDA is "trying to
give parents a realistic assessment of what it takes to home school. You
won't have the 'stick-to-itness' that it requires if the sole motivation is
fear."

Some organizations are inviting parents to test the home schooling waters in
measured ways. Swanson said that he is encouraging those who

[CTRL] The Third Way: Stealth Socialism

1999-06-06 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

The Third Way: Stealth Socialism

by Mike Wilson, Editor, APC News Wire

British Prime Minister Tony Blair, often called the British version of Bill
Clinton, has perfected Clinton’s style of substance-less leadership. Now
Blair is the most prominent proponent of a vague new political movement
steeped in the lofty idea that society can have its cake and eat it too --
if only there were more "compromise" at the political "center."

It’s called the "Third Way" and it’s becoming a successful method for
left-wing parties in Europe to get elected in an era when history books
conclusively show the failure of Marxist ideology.

The Third Way is, in effect, a grudging admission by the left that
traditional market controls of collectivist governments cannot thrive in
today’s global economy. But at the same time, it’s a stubborn insistence
that an activist federal government is still an effective approach to public
problems.

"The Third Way stands for a modernized social democracy, passionate in its
commitment to social justice and the goals of the center-left, but flexible,
innovative and forward-looking in the means to achieve them," writes Blair.
"It seeks to take the essential values of the center and center-left and
apply them to a world of fundamental social and economic change, and to do
so free from outdated ideology."

Blair speaks frequently of the government "equipping" citizens to succeed,
the government and private sector working in "partnership" together, while
"sharing responsibility" and "cooperating internationally."

But what never really gets around to being explained is exactly HOW it’s all
supposed to work. Other than a general commitment to "education" and "worker
training" Third Way proponents never get past eloquent descriptions of
utopian goals.

"You can’t be against it," says Polly Toynbee, a British social affairs
commentator who’s a Third Way skeptic. "It includes everything good you ever
heard."

Recently, talk of this Third Way has been building momentum among Democrats
in the U.S. It’s no surprise that Democrats would be enthused by a new tool
to continue their evolution into "New Democrats." Thus far the term has come
to mean nothing more than dressing up liberals and liberal policies in
disguise, keeping Hillary muzzled, paying lip service to traditionally
Republican issues such as crime, welfare and tax cuts; and immediately
heralding any big government spending as an "investment" for "the children."

These have been necessary tactics since Clinton caused Democrats to lose
control of Congress halfway through his first term -- subsequently turning
Liberal into a dirty word. The huge tax increase, the effort to let
homosexuals serve openly in the military and a failed attempt to nationalize
the health care system showed Democrats that they had seriously misread the
public’s tolerance for brazenly liberal public policy.

But Democrats have adapted well -- due largely to the establishment media’s
perpetuation of the myth that there’s a great public yearning for lawmakers
to simply meet halfway on any point of contention, have a bipartisan hug and
things will be just fine.

The Third Way caters directly to this attitude.

The danger this presents to conservatives is a new banner of credibility for
the left, and the likelihood that the right will continue to be labeled
"extremists" or "obstructionists" for refusing to compromise on core
principles. This could be easily overcome if Republicans weren’t too
squeamish to stand up to the smear, hold firm on the principle that
sometimes no legislation is better than bad legislation, and then let the
voters (not the polls or pundits) cast final judgment. Unfortunately, it
doesn’t seem likely that Republicans will rediscover the backbone they lost
in the government shutdown three years ago.

Meanwhile, conservatives would be well-advised to publicly scrutinize Third
Way rhetoric, challenging the absence of policy and insisting it be defined
in terms of methods rather than goals.

FOR RELEASE:
May 26, 1999


Clinton in violation of law
Had 60 days to pull-out of Kosovo or get approval -- neither has happened

WASHINGTON, DC -- As of 12:01 am Wednesday, May 26, President Clinton will
be in clear violation of the 1973 War Powers Resolution. This is the first
time a president has violated the resolution since its enactment.

"President Clinton has nothing left to claim: he is in complete violation of
the Wars Powers Resolution, there is simply no other interpretation," said
US Rep. Ron Paul (R, TX).

Rep. Paul is one of 26 Members of Congress who have filed a lawsuit in
federal court against President Clinton in regards to his violation of the
War Powers Resolution and the US Constitution.

"No one can argue that a president must, when there is a direct, clear and
present danger to American lives, take defensive actions to protect our
national interest. However, 60 days ago this president decided to take
aggressive action against a sovereign nation; and has since had
congressional authorization rejected by a vote of 427 to 2," said Rep. Paul.

Under the War Powers Resolution, a president may engage in hostilities for
60 days without congressional approval. At the end of the 60-day period,
however, the president must have either received a Declaration of War,
received authorization to continue the action for another set period of
time, or begin withdrawing the troops. Since the bombing of Yugoslavia
began, the president has been denied a declaration of war and authorization.

"Once again, though, President Clinton is demonstrating his utter disregard
for the Constitution and laws of this nation. He apparently views himself as
a king, rather than the president of a constitutional republic; he must
believe that his will is the law, rather than the Constitution and acts of
Congress," said Rep. Paul. "To say this president is anything but dangerous
and reckless would be a gross understatement."

Rep. Paul said that while many presidents have violated, with the unspoken
consent of Congress, the constitutional responsibility for the initiation of
war, President Clinton has done so more frequently and brazenly than any
other this century.

"While I am hopeful this president will change his course, recent history
has shown this president holds no more respect for court orders than he does
for the Constitution or the War Powers Resolution. If he shows the same
contempt as in the past, our nation faces serious trouble."

Clinton's Comeuppance

Late in her life, Lillian Hellman was onstage at some campus event, and was
asked why she had never endorsed gay liberation. Leaning over her cane and
peering at the back of the hall through heavy dark glasses, she replied in
raspy but lapidary words. "The forms of fucking," she said, "do not require
my endorsement." One had one's disagreements with the old girl, but this
time, it would be nice to think, she spoke for us all. Half the pundits and
windbags in the continental United States have been rushing to say, with
less wit and less courage, that William Jefferson Clinton's "private" life
is, or should be, his own affair. We're all adults...let's get on with the
nation's business...what if this should give the market a tsura?
Which is not to say quite the same thing. Rape, incest, child prostitution,
intern abuse and the humping of the help are all, also, "forms of fucking,"
but they equally certainly don't require endorsement. And I, on the day that
the fragrant Monica Lewinsky broke cover, had been much more interested in
establishing the identity of the "senior Republican," cited in The New York
Times, who had told the South Korean dictators to go ahead and execute Kim
Dae Jung in 1980. I still am more interested. That doesn't make the Clinton
libido irrelevant. If the recent freshet of J.F.K. books has made anything
plain, it is that there may well be a connection between machismo Type A
(Kennedy's disgusting admiration for Ian Fleming's fiction as it related to
women) and machismo Type B (Kennedy's even more repellent admiration for Ian
Fleming's James Bond solutions in the political sphere). Between power and
the aphrodisiac, as the clammy Kissinger used to be overfond of saying,
there is a well-understood connection. You don't have to be a Reichian to
propose that a sick libido may connote, or may lead to, baseness in
politics. And/or vice versa.

I was a contemporary of Clinton's at Oxford, and though I didn't know him
personally (he was a moderate while I was an extremist), I did know several
members of his set. And I still do know three women who kept company with
him. I'll call them Sarah Maitland, Mandy Merck and Pip Northey, because
those are their names. They were all strong, clever, tough and attractive.
They still are. They all reported "Bill" to be a real gentleman, a good
companion and a sensitive confidant, and they have all resolutely refused to
gossip about him ever since, though in at least one case there were letters
that might have fetched a bundle. This is impressive testimony. Of course,
in those days Clinton also maintained a minimum of seriousness about civil
rights, the war and the subversion of American democracy by the "national
security" apparat. Stuff like that.

Here is what I think must have happened. It's borne out in the two best
Clinton biographies, by David Maraniss and Roger Morris. Sizzling with
ambition and also with the deadly need for approval, "Bill" soon found that
professional politics was a no-brainer for someone as plausible and sinuous
as himself. He was drawn very early on by the glamour and the razzmatazz
side of the business, and also by the easy money and the easy women.
("Politics," as someone once said, "is show business for ugly people.") He
would give himself a makeover at the drop of an opinion poll. He learned to
be economical with the truth, and saw this hailed as cleverness and skill.
He caught the eye of the people who look for reliable "candidates"--most
especially that safe "New Democrat" kind of candidate.

Well, you know how it is. You need the charm less and less, and there is
less and less time for attentive wooing. Money trees can be shaken. Arms can
be twisted. Likely lasses can be ordered like pizza, and may not always be
chosen for their sophistication. The evident coarsening and thuggishness of
Clinton's political evolution, and the way he prostituted himself to any and
every special interest, could have its carnal counterpart. Could have? How
else to explain his best-ever friend, Dick Morris, who has bragged about
procuring him babes and whose sordid public manners debauched an entire
presidential election? (There may be some right-wing creeps behind Paula
Jones and even Linda Tripp, but they can't be as right-wing or as creepy as
Dick Morris.) With both Morris and Clinton, women were part of the spoils
system. Even Lewinsky, we learn, was first recommended

US May Send 7,000 Troops to Kosovo
Full Coverage
NATO - Serbia War


By BARRY SCHWEID AP Diplomatic Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) - The military service chiefs will meet with President
Clinton Thursday to discuss options in NATO's conflict with Yugoslavia,
including the possible use of ground troops for a land invasion of Kosovo,
Defense Secretary William Cohen said today.

Members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff will discuss ``the whole range of
issues ... including considerations about whether there should be or could
be a ground option'' and whether NATO would support such a shift in
strategy, Cohen told reporters.

Responding to questions during a photo-taking session in his Pentagon
office, Cohen said there are no firm plans for any use of ground forces in
Kosovo beyond the enlarged peacekeeping force now in the works. And he said
``there is no other planning'' ready to be presented to Clinton on ground
force options.

Clinton, during a commencement address today at the Air Force Academy in
Colorado Springs, Colo., announced the United States would contribute 7,000
U.S. troops to some 50,000 international forces for Kosovo peacekeeping.

The president, who has all but ruled out a ground invasion, urged Americans
to stick behind the 10-week-old airstrike strategy. ``We cannot grow weary
of this campaign because Mr. Milosevic did not capitulate when the first
bombs fell,'' he said. ``If we have the patience and determination to match
the courage and skill of the men and women in uniform we will achieve our
goals.''

Clinton also noted the deployment this week of 68 additional U.S. aircraft
for the air war. The planes are part of a 176-aircraft increase approved by
Cohen on May 6. It includes a squadron of 12 F-16 fighters, two squadrons of
F-15E attack planes and 20 air tankers. Officials have said the planes would
be based in Turkey, although Pentagon officials declined to publicly confirm
that.

Some 16,000 NATO troops are now stationed in neighboring Macedonia and about
14,000 are to be added. On a visit here, Prime Minister Ljubco Georgievski
said the Macedonian parliament had taken the position Macedonia should not
be used for attacks on any of its neighbors.

And, he said at a news conference after seeing Secretary of State Madeleine
Albright, Greece, Hungary and Bulgaria have similar positions.

However, Georgievski said, if NATO decides to invade, ``We will have to put
it to the Macedonian parliament again.''

Georgievski, leader of the tiniest Balkans nation, appealed also for U.S.
assistance. Albright, responding, said Congress already has approved $22
million in economic assistance and $15 million in technical aid.

Cohen stressed that the administration and NATO are committed to continuing
the air campaign and using ground troops in a peacekeeping role only after
there is a peace agreement with Belgrade. Nonetheless, when pressed for
details on Thursday's meeting, Cohen said, ``I'm sure there will be a full
range of discussions, questions about whether or not there would be any kind
of a ground option for a nonpermissive environment.'' He added that there is
no NATO consensus for a ground invasion.

White House spokesman Joe Lockhart said the focus of Clinton's meeting with
his military advisers would be ``the air campaign and its effectiveness.''

``You should not look at this as a decision meeting,'' Lockhart said,
stressing the idea is simply to discuss all NATO options available.

Other administration officials, meanwhile, said today that a U.S.-Russian
plan for a new diplomatic overture to Yugoslavia has not resolved all
differences on what kind of peacekeeping force would go into Kosovo, but
Albright said there was ``sufficient agreement'' to move forward on the
initiative.

State Department spokesman James P. Rubin said it was ``an open question''
whether Russia would participate in sending peacekeepers under NATO command
and with NATO at its core as demanded by the allies.

But in a gesture to Moscow, Rubin said the Clinton administration would not
object to adoption of a resolution by the United Nations to endorse the
peacekeeping plan after a settlement to protect returning refugees.

Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic previously had flatly rejected the
plan and NATO's demands for a withdrawal of virtually all Serb troops from
Kosovo.

Russian mediator Viktor Chernomyrdin and President Martti Ahtisaari of
Finland were going together to Belgrade today to present the new diplomatic
initiative. The plan grew out of lengthy talks in Bonn, Germany, with Deputy
Secretary of State Strobe Talbott, Chernomyrdin and Ahtisaari.

``We think the areas of agreement are sufficiently large to justify a joint
trip,'' Rubin said. ``The ball clearly is in Mr. Milosevic's court.''

Chernomyrdin said NATO troops will be under NATO command, while the Russian

NRA Fires Back at Spike, Rosie

by Daniel Frankel
June 1, 1999, 6:20 p.m. PT

It was only two weeks ago that Rosie O'Donnell made headlines by getting on
Tom Selleck's case about appearing in a National Rifle Association
advertisement.

Imagine the talk-show host's surprise Tuesday, when she opened USA Today to
find her own name appearing--alongside fellow NRA critic Spike Lee's--in one
of the gun-lobbying organization's full-page print ads.

The ad, headlined, "SPIKE LEE, ROSIE O'DONNELL AND THE REST OF THIS
COUNTRY'S GUN HATERS NEED TO READ THIS," features a fairly lengthy
transcript to a speech given by NRA Vice President Wayne LaPierre last week
to a House Judiciary subcommittee.

Perhaps taking aim at O'Donnell--and the persistent anti-gun stance she's
taken on her syndicated talk show in the wake of the Columbine High School
shooting tragedy--LaPierre implicates what he calls "made-for-TV lawmaking"
in a discussion ostensibly to clarify his organization's position on
gun-control.

"It needs a villain," he explains. "So good Americans have been exposed
daily to a well-coordinated, systematic bashing of the National Rifle
Association's membership as somehow a reckless societal pathogen, a mighty
extremist empire opposed to safety, caution and reason."

Lee--quoted late last month at the Cannes Film Festival as saying of NRA
President Charlton Heston, "Shoot him--with a .44 caliber Bulldog," and
adding he'd like to "dismantle" the NRA--received more direct treatment from
LaPierre.

"It's reasonable for well-meaning people to convene hearings like this to
find and fashion solutions," he says in the ad. "What's unreasonable is when
a new level of hate rhetoric becomes acceptable because it's aimed at honest
gun owners, as in the violent language of influential filmmaker Spike
Lee...By his defiant silence, instead of a quick apology most American role
models would offer, he sanctions hate..."

For his part, Lee has spoken about the matter, indicating he was very clear
with reporters at the time that his comments were made merely in fun.

"I intended it as ironic, as a joke to show how violence begets more
violence," Lee says. "I told everyone there it was a joke. I said I did not
want to read in the papers, 'Shoot Charlton Heston.'"

Terrorism -- American style




Thursday's announcement of an ambiguous Yugoslav peace agreement shouldn't
obscure the deep damage that the so-called civilized world has inflicted on
its own conscience by following the moral leadership of Bill Clinton.
The apparent willingness of Milosevic to accept some version of NATO's terms
may mean that NATO's criminal effort to break the will of the Yugoslavian
people is working. A sustained and punishing attack on the people of
Yugoslavia themselves can, no doubt, eventually break their will, and reduce
them to a point where they will say "enough, we don't want to die any more."
At that point, however Pyrrhic the victory, Clinton and his buddies will no
doubt stand up and declare a triumphant precedent for benign
internationalist intervention. Perhaps that moment will soon be at hand,
although given the Clinton incompetence in foreign affairs generally, one
would think that Milosevic stands a good chance of pulling a "Hussein" and
manipulating diplomacy in ways he can't manipulate NATO airplanes high
overhead.

But whatever kind of "victory" Bill Clinton claims, I think that the rest of
us ought to hang our heads in shame. The NATO campaign has followed a
strategy that we know to be wrong and deeply immoral. The moral norms that
as a decent and civilized people we have worked to establish condemn a
strategy that aims to break and destroy the civilian people of a country in
order to achieve political objectives. The classic definition of terrorism
is the use of force against civilians in order to get them to do your
bidding as a result of the terror induced in their hearts. And we have been
practicing a strategy based on just such a use of force.

Of course, the official spokesmen for our policy have been careful to avoid
stating directly what our strategy has been. That has been left to Clinton
proxies, like Senator Lieberman, who have been making unofficial, and more
truthful, statements of what we are up to. Here are some of the things he
has said in recent weeks: "I hope it doesn't take ground troops to win,
because I hope the air campaign, even if it does not convince Milosevic to
order his troops out of Kosovo, will so devastate his economy, which it is
doing now, so ruin the lives of his people, that they will rise up and throw
him out."

Senator Lieberman has characterized our effort as intending to "bring the
war in Kosovo home to the people, the civilians, in Belgrade, so that they
pressure Milosevic to break," and he has admitted that, contrary to what one
might expect from the usual distinction between combatants and
non-combatants, we are in fact trying to make life miserable for ordinary
Serbs. "That's what we have been doing for the last couple of months. We're
not only hitting military targets. Otherwise, why would we be cutting off
the water supply and knocking out the power stations, turning the lights
off? We are trying, through the air campaign, to break the will of the
Serbian people, so they will force their leader to break his will, to then
order the troops -- his troops -- out of Kosovo. You can't get troops on the
ground out of someplace from the air. And so we are trying to carry on
essentially a test of wills, trying to break his will. ..."

So our policy has been to make war on a civilian population so that they
will produce a political change in their country. Any of the official
spokesmen of our military would publicly deny this objective. They would
deny it because Americans have long declared that targeting civilians in war
is deeply immoral and violates the fundamental norms and conventions of
civilized warfare. We have consistently believed that it is barbaric to
conduct a war aimed at harming a civilian population. This has been our
established standard of moral decency. But if we adopt the Lieberman view of
war, then there is suddenly no difference between the American people and
the wicked forces that we have fought and defeated throughout the hot and
cold wars of the 20th century. Those who realize how precious that
difference has been

[CTRL] HIV blood came from Arkansas jail

1999-06-04 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

Brothers and Sisters,  Spread the source of the evil which is upon us.


HIV blood came from Arkansas jail
U.S. firm linked to Clinton bought from prisoners and sold to Montreal blood
broker in '80s

Mark Kennedy
The Ottawa Citizen

A U.S. firm with links to U.S. President Bill Clinton collected HIV-tainted
blood from Arkansas prison inmates in the 1980s and shipped it to Canada,
newly uncovered documents reveal.

The contaminated plasma -- used to create special blood products for
hemophiliacs -- is believed to have been infected with HIV, the virus that
causes AIDS. As well, it's likely the prisoners' blood was contaminated with
hepatitis C.

The story of how that plasma was collected and found its way into the
bloodstreams of unsuspecting Canadians stands as one of the most shocking --
yet least explored -- aspects of the tainted-blood tragedy.

Its significance is magnified by the fact that Mr. Clinton's name is
associated with the story.

Mr. Clinton was governor of Arkansas when the Canadian blood supply was
contaminated in the mid-'80s. He was generally familiar with the operations
of now-defunct Health Management Associates (HMA), the Arkansas firm that
was given a contract by Mr. Clinton's own state administration to provide
medical care to prisoners.

In the process, HMA was also permitted to collect prisoners' blood and sell
it elsewhere.

HMA's president in the mid-1980s was Leonard Dunn, a personal friend and
political ally of Mr. Clinton. Later, Mr. Dunn was a Clinton appointee to
the Arkansas Industrial Development Commission, and he headed Mr. Clinton's
1990 gubernatorial re-election finance committee.

It's not known how many Canadians contracted HIV from the plasma of Arkansas
prisoners, who were paid $7 a unit, although it's likely that several
hundred, perhaps thousands, were infected by the tainted products.

At the time, U.S. companies that fractionate blood products had stopped
buying prison blood because it was widely understood that, since many
inmates practised unsafe sex or were intravenous drug addicts, their blood
posed a high risk of carrying the AIDS virus.

However, HMA found a willing buyer in a Montreal blood broker, who then sold
the plasma to Toronto-based blood fractionator Connaught Laboratories.
Connaught apparently didn't realize the plasma had come from prisoners.

Canadians learned of the prison connection in 1995, when Justice Horace
Krever's inquiry on the tainted-blood scandal unearthed some aspects of the
story. In his voluminous report last November, Judge Krever chronicled what
he knew of the prison plasma contract.

But nowhere before now has any mention been made of Mr. Clinton's name, even
though the facility in question -- Cummins prison in Grady, Arkansas -- was
located in his state during an era when the governor's office was active in
overseeing many aspects of public administration.

Two new developments are bound to focus public attention on Mr. Clinton's
knowledge of the prison-blood collection system -- all this at a time when
the president is bracing himself for the fallout over independent counsel
Kenneth Starr's report on the Monica Lewinsky affair.

This month, a new book, Blood Trail, is being released in Canada and the
U.S. It is a novel, and its Illinois publisher is carefully taking the usual
legal precaution to declare in the book that if any characters in this "work
of fiction" bear resemblance to real people, it is "purely coincidental."

However, the book is a thinly veiled account of how an Arkansas governor
gets caught up in a prison-blood scheme gone bad, becomes U.S. president,
and tries to cover up his past.

What adds to the book's mystique is that it is written under a pseudonym,
"Michael Sullivan," to temporarily hide the author's true identity. The
Citizen is aware of the author's real name, and has agreed to keep it
confidential.

The author is a medical practitioner in Arkansas who has direct knowledge of
how the prison system worked when Mr. Clinton was governor. He wishes to
remain anonymous temporarily because he fears retribution in his home state,
but acknowledges that he will be willing to reveal his name once the media
have reported details of the prison-blood collection program. At that point,
he says, he won't feel as vulnerable.

In another development, the Citizen has obtained copies of internal Arkansas
state police documents written by investigators who were examining HMA in
the mid-'80s. The investigators were following up on complaints the company
supplied poor medical service to the prisoners (some had died, and one had
lost a leg) and were probing rumours that the Clinton appointees on the
prison board had demanded a bribe in return for renewing HMA's $3-million
health-care contract in 1985.

In the end, the investigators accepted the explanation supplied by the board
and HMA: Mr. Clinton was "deeply concerned about HMA's past performance" and
it was decided that as a condition of getting

Patrick J. Burns Weekly Column

May 26, 1999

[Expletive Deleted]

I can't help but feel a little sorry for Energy Department Secretary Bill
Richardson. For weeks now he has been the point man for the Clinton
Administration's Anti-Cox Report Spin Team and the stress created by this
latest twist in his job description is really beginning to show. Appearing
on ABC's This Week, Richardson was subject to the usual barrage of polite
but tough interrogation from Sam, Cokie and George. His response to much of
what was asked of him regarding the Chinese nuclear espionage debacle was
some variant of "We're correcting the problem." As I watched this poor man
twitch and grimace, I imagined how wonderful the world might be, if only for
a few seconds he were affected by a seizure of undiplomatic honesty: "Look,
these guys got the whole [expletive deleted] candy store and you bet your
[expletive deleted] the President knew about this a long time ago, OK?
[Expletive deleted] him and the [expletive deleted] masquerading as the
Attorney Genetrix, too. In fact, [expletive deleted] this. I quit. I'm going
to play golf." I would be denied realization of my fantasy, though. Witness
this verbatim transcript of an exchange between the venerable Sam Donaldson
and the Secretary of Circumlocution:

 Mr. Donaldson: On March 19th, Mr. Secretary, the President of the
United States was asked at his press conference, can you assure   the
American people that under your watch, no valuable nuclear   secrets were
lost? He replied, I can tell you that no one has reported to  me that
they suspect such a thing has occurred. That wasn’t right, was  it?


  Mr. Richardson: No, the President was correct. The President was
correct. What he said, number one, was that there had been no
enforcement action against anybody on the espionage. And secondly,what
he was referring to, and this is what he said, was nothing at the
nuclear weapons labs. Now, there were compromises in the ’90s,
thefts of nuclear secrets, but we don’t know whether it came from our
labs.

What the hell does that mean? We would have been furnished a more direct and
compelling response had the Secretary spontaneously reverted to the goo-goos
and ga-gas of infantile speech. The sad fact is that Bill Richardson stepped
in an immense pile of [expletive deleted] when he made the decision to
change his title from Congressman to Secretary. Maybe being the occupant of
a House seat representing a constituency in New Mexico really wasn't so bad,
after all. Everyone wants to be a cabinet member, though.

Speaking of cabinet members, what's up with the Attorney Genetrix? I
remember it was nearly three years ago that her office, in conjunction with
the FBI, successfully annihilated the reputation of Richard Jewell,
then-suspect in the Olympic Park bombing case in Atlanta. No evidence, no
apology, no problem. It's easy to beat up the little guy, I guess. When it
comes to matters that really contain some meat, say, the illegal transfer of
nuclear weapons technology to a Communist enemy of the United States, all
bets are off. Republican Senator Richard Shelby has called for Reno's
resignation, citing her office's unwillingness to conduct an aggressive
investigation. Even Democratic Senator Robert Toricelli from New Jersey has
suggested abdication of duty by the Queen of Justice. Responding to this,
Ms. Reno politely responded, "We respectfully disagree." Referring to the
Cox Report, she said that it contained "some very important suggestions
about what to do about espionage." Allow me to provide a summative analysis
of both the contents Cox Report and the Attorney Genetrix's statements:


Cox Report: "They got it all, baby. We'd better do something but FAST."


   Attorney Genetrix: "Yup. So?"


I realize it's far too much to expect Ms. Reno to focus on petty espionage
charges when her office is working overtime to dilute the potency of the
Second Amendment, never mind the threat that nuclear proliferation of this
kind poses to the entire Constitution, the document all these yahoos are
sworn to defend.

Park on Politics
Yet Another Assault On Our Kids

When something so evil and so vile enters into the American culture, it is
the duty and the responsibility of every American, mom, dad, kid, husband,
wife, congressman, scientist, doctor, and yes, the President of the United
States to stare that evil in its face to condemn, conquer, and destroy it.
That evil is in our midst today. If substantiated and true, the July 1998
volume of the Psychological Bulletin issued by the American Psychological
Association (APA), attempted to convince us by virtue of this report that
pedophilia is not as harmful as we thought. This packet of lies studied a
handful of college students who were molested as children, and drew a
calculated conclusion that they were not dramatically harmed by the event.

In my short time on this earth, I have rarely heard of this kind of
recklessness and irresponsibility. Two emotions immediately flooded over me.
After the shock wore off, I first felt the vein in my forehead pound and my
face turn red. My anger burned against those who could be so stupid! A few
minutes passed, and then came the burden. The weight of sorrow and the
sadness took hold as I realized that I was hearing merely the foolishness of
a country and world that has turned its back on all that is good and
righteous. Setting out to pick apart such asinine logic is almost too easy.
Sadly, most Americans today will sigh, shrug their shoulders and sit down to
watch another episode of ‘Will and Grace’.

If we were to ask a college student who had been molested or sodomized as a
child, it is quite possible that they do not realize or understand why their
relationships and dysfunctional lives are so screwed up. If these so-called
scientists knew any basic morals, they might understand that such events can
morally screw up someone’s life. (I use the phrase ‘so-called scientist’,
since Dr. Laura has correctly points out that when you use the phrase
so-called, it means that the object of the phrase is not really what it
claims to be). Anyway, I bet if you actually did a little due diligence, you
would find that many, if not all, of these students could not hold down a
healthy relationship, either consistently slept around, or had some sort of
unnatural sexual appetite ( the APA obviously doesn’t see any behavior as
abnormal ), had a higher than average rate of drug or alcohol abuse, and any
number of other moral problems. Obviously, not everyone who shacks up,
drinks, etc. has been molested, but when one has been viciously attacked and
used by an adult ( who supposedly cares and want to protect children ), then
I would reasonably assume the coping with relationships, trust, and life
would become much more difficult if not impossible.

There is an organized and growing movement to normalize depravity and
malicious sexual appetites in this country. What used to seem like an
impossible attack on the family, is now a real war, with real weapons and
real people. I must say, that our side is fat and lazy. We are not sharp, we
are not ready, and we no longer hold the torch of liberty along side its
moral responsibilities. If the claims about this article are true, we must
cry out and condemn such stupidity or may God have mercy on our souls.

 Murdering for morality




I recently received a letter from a Libertarian who supports the NATO war
against Serbia.
He writes:

"I see that the Libertarians are against the 'war' (or whatever it is) in
Serbia, lest as ol' Abe Lincoln did some years ago, the state would grow.
Gladly do I appreciate the fear of a growing state.

"Yet to leave a mad dog such as Milosevic alive after such a butchery shows
a level of callousness that I can not accept and still consider myself as
moral.

"True, there are other places such as the Sudan where we are not
intervening. That absence is no excuse not to intervene somewhere. That
somewhere at present is Serbia. And if nothing is done and Milosevic keeps
his job, that means that in this evolving New World Order, the institution
of government has the acknowledged, if unofficial, right to butcher its own
citizens, to kill 'we the people.'

"That can not be tolerated: mad dog governments must pay a price, even if
there is a fear of enlarging governments."

I understand your concerns, but I believe that, in your sympathy for some
people, you're overlooking many other people -- and overlooking the
consequences that would flow from getting what you want.

First, if you believe everything you've read about the "butchery" and
"callousness," and if you feel that your ability to "consider [yourself]
moral" hinges on your doing something, then do it.

But do you consider it moral to condemn to death other people, who are as
innocent as you are, to satisfy your moral outrage? Do you consider it moral
to force Americans who don't agree with you to pay for the instruments of
death and destruction that are currently raining down on the guilty and
innocent alike in Yugoslavia?

Second, how did you arrive at your understanding of the "butchery" and
"callousness"? Your appraisal necessarily is based mostly on what has been
filtered through the Clinton administration and NATO headquarters.

Bill Clinton's reputation for veracity is probably the worst in the world.
This is the man who told you "the era of big government is over" and "I did
not have sex with that woman," and who made up tales about church-burnings
in his childhood and dozens of other fantasies you're probably well
acquainted with. Is this the source for your knowledge about "brutality" and
"callousness"?

NATO has violated its own charter by waging war when none of its member
nations has been attacked. So it is under strong pressure to demonize its
enemy -- and can hardly be considered a reliable source of information.

You were told by NATO that it had not bombed a train carrying Kosovar
refugees, that Milosevic himself had done it -- but then NATO admitted it
had bombed the train, but claimed that Milosevic had used the refugees as
human shields. And then NATO admitted that everything it had said was wrong,
and that NATO had caused "a tragic accident." You were told by NATO that the
reason it has caused many innocent people to die in embassies and civilian
installations is because it is using out-of-date maps.

You were told by NATO that tens of thousands of young men had been murdered
by the Serbs -- but, when pressed for evidence, NATO backed up this claim by
saying a pilot had seen a freshly plowed field from thousands of feet up --
a field that NATO, with no further evidence, declared to be a mass grave.

You were told by NATO that Milosevic has murdered all the leaders of the
Kosovo Liberation Army -- but then the Los Angeles Times (May 17) reported
that all the dead leaders were still walking around villages in Kosovo --
and that even the Kosovars discount most of the news of Serbian atrocities.

This isn't to say that Slobodan Milosevic is really a good guy. He's a
political thug, like so many world leaders. But what source of information
has caused you to decide that thousands of innocent people must be put to
death in order to make this particular thug pay a price?

Third, have you considered how this war will set a precedent for future
wars?

The pundits applauded when Harry Truman illegally committed American troops
to fight the Korean War. But that just made it easier for John F. Kennedy
and Lyndon Johnson to illegally commit troops to fight in Vietnam -- which
made it easier yet for Richard Nixon to illegally bomb Cambodia, a neutral
country. And that made it still easier for George Bush to commit troops to
fight illegally in Iraq.

And these precedents removed all possible restraints on Bill Clinton, so
that he could willy-nilly bomb and kill innocent people in Iraq, the Sudan,
Afghanistan, and now Serbia, Kosovo, Bulgaria, and Albania.

How easy it will be now for the next president to bomb presumed drug fields
in Mexico -- or terrorists supposedly hiding in Canada. Or perhaps he'll
start a nuclear war

Anti-NATO Demonstrators Arrested
Thursday, June 3, 1999; 4:14 p.m. EDT

WASHINGTON (AP) -- More than two-dozen religious demonstrators were arrested
in front of the White House on Thursday after demanding that President
Clinton and NATO halt the bombing of Yugoslavia.

The arrests of members of the National Coalition for Peace in Yugoslavia
came moments after the Serb lawmakers in Belgrade approved a peace deal to
resolve the crisis and let more than 850,000 ethnic Albanians return to
Kosovo, a province of Serbia, Yugoslavia's dominant state.

Clinton said Yugoslavia's willingness to accept international peace terms
for Kosovo was encouraging and welcome but said there must be ``real
results'' before NATO bombing ends.

The 100 to 150 protesters were not satisfied.

``We are not here to demand the president's cautious optimism,'' said Gordon
Clark, executive director of Peace Action, one of seven groups that make up
the coalition.

Chanting, ``Stop the bombing, stop the killing, stop the suffering now,''
the demonstrators left Lafayette Park and crossed Pennsylvania Avenue toward
the White House's Northwest Gate. There, Clark and 25 other protesters knelt
in the driveway and sang hymns.

U.S. Park Police revoked their permit to protest because it required them to
avoid blocking traffic, according to U.S. Park Police Sgt. Robert MacLean.

The officers handcuffed the 26 demonstrators and loaded them into two police
vans, MacLean said. They were charged with demonstrating without a permit.

My Children Teach Themselves

By Dr. Arthur Robinson




Ten years ago my wife Laurelee and I decided to educate our children in a
homeschool rather than a public school or a private school. Of special
concern to us were the following facts:
The social and religious environment in most schools in America has
deteriorated to such a level that it is a threat to the spiritual, moral,
and mental health of each child who is forced to participate in it.

The level of political and secular humanist indoctrination in American
public schools has risen so high that it is very difficult for any child
attending public school to emerge with an understanding of historical and
religious truth.

Irrationalism has become the norm throughout American schools. It is
therefore very difficult for children who attend those schools to learn how
to think -- rather than to simply believe whatever propaganda is being
disseminated at the moment.

The academic quality of most schools has deteriorated to the point that
American students are literally the world's largest group of dunces. In test
after test of academic abilities, American students score last or near-last
in comparison with students from the other twenty or so advanced countries.

It is, of course, possible for a child to emerge from an American public
school with good academic training and a good spiritual and moral outlook.
With increasingly rare exceptions, however, students who achieve this do so
in spite of the school rather than because of the school. The overall
performance of American children who attend public schools is very poor.

Even when American public schools of the past are used as a standard,
current schools are an embarrassment. Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores
have deteriorated so much during recent decades that the tests themselves
are now on the verge of being changed. The American educational
establishment is determined to change these tests, so that continued
comparisons with past performance will not be possible.

Even the SAT tests themselves are being used as tools for social
engineering. "Politically correct" questions are being asked about "socially
responsible" reading passages. In some cases the student must give an answer
that he knows to be false or misguided in order to please the social
engineers who designed the tests.

As a result of these facts, hundreds of thousands of American families have
chosen to educate their children at home. Home schooling is rapidly becoming
a major force in American society and has become a significant embarrassment
to the public school establishment.

Moreover, families who have chosen this path are clearly achieving some of
their objectives. In particular, they are succeeding in partially isolating
their children from the social and religious decay that is pervasive in
American public schools. They are also strengthening their families by
keeping children and parents together rather than allowing them to be
physically and mentally separated by the State.

There is a growing possibility that, if the homeschooling movement continues
to expand, it may become the most important single force in American public
life.

In order for this to occur, however, some current weaknesses in the
homeschool movement need to be corrected. Aside from the obvious legal
problems and other difficulties that have developed as the public school
establishment attempts to protect its decaying monopoly, these include:

Homeschooling is very difficult for parents whose circumstances prevent at
least one dedicated parent from giving a very large percentage of his or her
time to the homeschool. While it is fine to argue that a family should
always include one full-time parent in the home with time to teach the
children, many families find themselves in circumstances which do not permit
this.

Many parents themselves lack the education that they so earnestly want for
their children. As a consequence, homeschooled children have a difficult
time rising above the level of academic achievement of their parents. This
is true of many homes in which both parents are college trained and may even
have advanced degrees. A large fraction of college graduates, for example,
are not trained to do simple calculus -- a level of academic achievement
easily possible for most properly educated sixteen-year-old children. Even
parents holding doctoral degrees in mathematics and science are often poorly
educated in literature, history, and the foundations of our civilization.

The average level of academic achievement in homeschools at present looks
good only when compared with the disastrously poor results currently the
norm in public schools. While it is true that SAT scores are a little higher
for homeschools than for public schools, the average public school child
comes from a generally poorer home environment and a school environment that

The Objectives of the Communist Manifesto.

Karl Marx and Frederick Engels, The Communist Manifesto, 1848,
pp104-105, Penguin Classics. Translation by Samuel Moore, 1888.
Another translation.


  The steady increase in intellectual Socialism during the 19th century in
the wake
of the Enlightenment is a phenomenon which is little acknowledged,
considering the almost
universal awareness amongst the general public of other major intellectual
developments of
the 18th and 19th centuries; the Industrial Revolution, the revolution
in scientific thinking typified by Darwin's theory of Natural Selection, and
the French
Revolution.




  We have seen above, that the first step in the revolution by the working
class, is to raise
the proletariat to the position of ruling class, to win the battle of
democracy.
  The proletariat will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degrees, all
capital from the
bourgeoisie, to centralise all instruments of production in the hands of the
state, i.e., of
the proletariat organised as the ruling class; and to increase the total of
productive forces
as rapidly as possible.
  Of course, in the beginning, this cannot be effected except by means of
despotic inroads on
the rights of property, and on the conditions of bourgeois production; by
means of measures,
therefore, which appear economically insufficient and untenable, but which,
in the course of
the movement, outstrip themselves, necessitate further inroads upon the old
social order, and
are unavoidable as a means of entirely revolutionising the mode of
production.
  These measures will of course be different in different countries.
  Nevertheless, in the most advanced countries, the following will be pretty
generally
applicable:
  1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to
public purposes.
  2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.
  3. Abolition of all right of inheritance.
  4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.
  5. Centralisation of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a
national bank with
State capital and an exclusive monopoly.
  6. Centralisation of the means of communication and transport in the hands
of the state.
  7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the
State; the bringing
into cultivation of wastelands, and the improvement of the soil generally in
accordance with
a common plan.
  8. Equal liability of all to labour. Establishment of industrial armies,
especially for
agriculture.
  9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual
abolition of the
distinction between town and country, by a more equable distribution of the
population
over the country.
  10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of
children's factory
labour in its present form. Combination of education with industrial
production, c., c.
  When, in the course of development, class distinctions have disappeared,
and all
production has been concentrated in the whole nation, the public power will
lose its
political character. Political power, properly so called, is merely the
organised power
of one class for oppressing another. If the proletariat during its contest
with the
bourgeoisie is compelled, by the force of circumstances, to organise itself
as a class,
if, by means of a revolution, it makes itself the ruling class, and, as
such, sweeps away
by force the old conditions of production, then it will, along with these
conditions, have
swept away the conditions for the existence of class antagonisms and of
classes generally,
and will thereby have abolished its own supremacy as a class.
  In place of the old bourgeois society, with its classes and class
antagonisms, we shall
have an association, in which the free development of each is the condition
for the free
development of all.

A Manifesto for the 21st Century

150 years of the Communist Manifesto
by Alan Woods

At first sight it may seem that the republication of the Communist Manifesto
requires an explanation. How can one justify a new edition of a book written
almost 1950 years ago? Yet in reality the Manifesto is the most modern of
books. The truth of this affirmation can be easily demonstrated. If we
examine any bourgeois book written one and a half century ago about the same
subjects, it will rapidly become clear that such a work will be merely of
historical interest, with no the slightest practical application. However,
the present work provides us with a profound analysis which, in an amazingly
small amount of words, provides a brilliant explanation of the most
fundamental phenomena which occupy our attention on a world scale at the
present time.

In point of fact, the Communist Manifesto is even more true today than when
it first appeared in 1848. Let us consider one example. At the time when
Marx and Engels were writing, the world of the big multinational companies
was still the music of a very distant future. Despite this, they explained
how "free enterprise" and competition would inevitably lead to the
concentration of capital and the monopolisation of the productive forces. It
is frankly comical to read the statements made by the defenders of
capitalism concerning Marx's alleged mistake on this question, when in
reality it was precisely one of his most brilliant and unquestionable
predictions.

During the 1980s it became fashionable to claim that "small is beautiful".
This is not the place to enter into a discussion concerning the relative
aesthetics of big, small or medium size, about which everyone is entitled to
hold an opinion. But it is an absolutely indisputable fact that the process
of concentration of capital foreseen by Marx has occurred, is occurring, and
indeed has reached unprecedented levels in the course of the last ten years.

In the United States, where the process may be seen in a particularly clear
form, 500 giant monopolies accounted for 92 per cent of all income in 1994.
On a world scale, the 1000 biggest companies had an income amounting to
eight billion dollars, which is the equivalent of one third of total world
profits. In the USA, 0.5 per cent of the richest families are in possession
of half of financial assets held by individuals. The richest one per cent of
the US population increased its share of the national income from 17.6 per
cent in 1978 to an astonishing 36.3 per cent in 1989.

The process of centralisation and concentration of capital has reached
proportions hitherto undreamed of. The number of take-overs has acquired the
character of an epidemic in all the advance industrialised nations. In 1995
the number of take-overs beat all records. The Mitsubishi Bank and the Bank
of Tokyo fused to form the biggest bank in the world. The union of Chase
Manhattan and the Chemical Bank created the biggest banking group in the USA
with combined reserves of 297 billion dollars. The world's biggest
entertainment company emerged when Walt Disney bought Capital Cities/ABC.
Westinghouse bought CBS and Time Warner bought Turner Broadcasting Systems.
In the pharmaceutical sector, Glaxo bought Wellcome. The take-over of Scott
Paper by Kimberly-Clark created the biggest producer of paper tissues in the
world. The take-over mania has spread to Europe with record figures being
made even in the last few weeks. Even Switzerland has experienced its first
hostile take-over concerning the paper group Holvis. In Britain we saw a
spate of hostile take-overs, as when Forte, Britain's biggest hotel chain
took over its rival, the leisure and restaurant empire, Granada, for 3.2
billion pounds. In many cases, such take-overs are intimately connected with
all kinds of shady practices - insider dealing, falsification of share
prices, and other types of fraud, larceny and swindling, as the Guinness
scandal has revealed.

It would not be difficult to provide many more figures which would prove
beyond reasonable doubt that Marx and Engels were right in their analysis of
the process of concentration of capital. This concentration of capital does
not signify a growth in production, but quite the contrary. In every case,
the intention is not to invest in new plant and machinery but to close
existing factories and offices and sack large numbers of workers in order to
increase profit margins without increasing production.

The scourge of unemployment

"And here it becomes evident, that the bourgeoisie is unfit any longer to be
the ruling class in society, and to impose its conditions of existence upon
society as an over-riding law. It is unfit to rule because it is incompetent
to assure an existence to its slave within his slavery, because it cannot
help letting him sink into such a state, that it has to feed him, instead of
being fed by

 Mad Madeleine and WWIII




By Samuel L. Blumenfeld
© 1999 WorldNetDaily.com

Time magazine is the CFR's mouthpiece when it comes to getting its readers
to see the world through NATO-colored glasses. By reading Time's back
issues, you begin to see a pattern of persuasion as its experts give us
their New World Order slant on things. Sometimes it's subtle, sometimes not,
as when Strobe Talbott wrote in July 1992 that "perhaps national sovereignty
was not such a great idea after all" and that "the case for world
government" was clinched. It should be noted that Strobe is a Rhodes Scholar
and was Clinton's roommate at Oxford. He is now shuttling between
Washington, Brussels and Moscow to see if he can get the Russians to put
pressure on Milosevic to surrender to NATO unconditionally.
When Madeleine Albright, our Secretary of State, was asked recently on a
radio interview whether the Russians were helping us "negotiate" with
Milosevic, she replied that there were no negotiations going on. If
Milosevic wanted the bombing to stop, he simply had to accept and implement
all of NATO's demands unconditionally. We haven't heard such uncompromising
talk since World War II, when the Allies demanded unconditional surrender on
the part of the Germans and Japanese.

That is why on May 17, Time headlined its puff cover story on the Madame
Secretary as "Madeleine's War." Time explained, "In a literal sense of
course, that's not true these days. Now that it's become an armed conflict,
she plays a supporting role to the President, National Security Adviser
Sandy Berger, Defense Secretary Bill Cohen and the military brass." Those
are the intellectual cretins who believe it is moral to bomb the Serbs into
the Stone Age simply to prove that NATO must be obeyed, or else.

Stupid leaders can lead us into untold destruction without even trying.
Consider our own morally outstanding leaders: the president, a politically
corrupt pathological liar and adulterer; Sandy Berger, with the brain and
aplomb of a used-car salesman; our moronic war secretary, William Cohen, who
mouths drivel every time he speaks. And we all know the famous statement by
Madame Halfbright: "What's the point of having this superb military that
you're always talking about if we can't use it?" It doesn't occur to her
that the purpose of our military is to defend our country, not to wage
aggressive wars against others who have not harmed us. Hers is the talk of
an ignoramus who hasn't learned a single lesson in American history. Yet
Time is trying to persuade us that she is a wise and compassionate human
being who provides the moral backbone for this war.

Compassionate? Madeleine and her family once lived in Belgrade when her
father was Czech ambassador to Yugoslavia. So she knows the city and the
Serbs. Who knows what kind of hatred she's been harboring in her guts all
these years and is now getting great pleasure watching the Serbs suffer. Now
that NATO has destroyed Belgrade's electrical system, incubators can't work,
hospitals must perform their services under candlelight if they don't have
their own generators. Children are traumatized by the continued bombing, and
1,200 civilians have been killed.

But forgetting the suffering of the Serbs and the Kosovars whose plight
simply gets worse as the bombing increases, Madeleine's war is inexorably
setting the stage for World War III. When NATO shows the world that it is
now the 900-pound gorilla on the block, very few nations will be tempted to
resist NATO's demands. This has always been the goal of the New World Order
folks. The ruling world authority has to be ruthless enough, powerful
enough, and determined enough to make its rule supreme. You can't achieve
that kind of authority by being weak or compromising. The very fact that
NATO has become this kind of monster is an indication that the New World
Order has arrived.

As Arthur Schlesinger Jr. explained in Foreign Affairs in July/August 1995,
"We are not going to achieve a new world order without paying for it in
blood as well as in words and money." Whose blood will it be? The blood of
today's American high school students. And whose money will it be? The money
of the American taxpayer, which the Congress is already spending to pay for
the bombing of Yugoslavia. The fiscal budget for the year 2000 is already at
$1.74 trillion!

Actually, Yugoslavia and Milosevic are small potatoes when it comes to
establishing world hegemony for the CFR crowd. That's why NATO must win this
one hands down. They can't afford to lose to Milosevic. Otherwise, what
chance will NATO have where the stakes are bigger?

At the moment, their bigger sights are on Israel and Russia. China will be a
much more difficult nut to crack. But a world conflagration may make it
possible for the

 OUR WORST SCHOOLS HAVE FEWEST BOOKS

  By SUSAN EDELMAN


 --
 --
 

  Many schools where fourth-graders flunked a recent state exam
 have shabby -
 if any - libraries, The Post has found.

 One big reason: The Board of Education, despite its $10 billion budget,
 spends a state allotment of only $4 per student on school library books.

 That $4 is only one-fourth the cost of the average hardcover: $16.60.

 Overall, city schools spend twice as much on drug-abuse programs,
 $30.41 per
 kid, as they do on library books and librarians combined - $14.81 per kid.

 In announcing that 67 percent of the city's schoolkids failed to meet the
 reading and writing standards of the new fourth-grade English
 Language Arts
 exam, State Education Commissioner Richard Mills reminded parents
 that every
 child should be reading at least 25 books a year.

 That's a struggle for youngsters in book-starved schools.

 "Kids need access to books," said Ray Domanico, education adviser for the
 Metro Industrial Areas Foundation, a group working in Harlem and
 other poor
 communities to beef up school libraries.

 "They need to be reading a lot. They need to develop a habit of
 reading. And
 many don't have books at home, so they really rely on the school library."

 This week, fourth-graders will face another rigorous test - New
 York's first
 statewide math exam. The three-part test will be administered today,
 Wednesday and Thursday.

 Last week's reading and writing exam requires kids to analyze all types of
 literature and compose essays. It was designed to prepare
 students for more
 rigorous Regents high-school exams.

 The library problem deeply concerns some parents and school board members.

 "Kids have got to have access to rich research materials - and to
 the thrill
 of research - to reach those high standards," said Ann McKinnon, a Queens
 mother who serves on the District 22 school board.

 City Schools Chancellor Rudy Crew has resorted to panhandling the
 public to
 help the Board of Education's poorest performers.

 Crew sponsors a ''Love to Read" literacy campaign, which recently ran
 newspaper ads with depressing illustrations of empty, cob-webbed
 bookshelves.

 "In New York City, this is as close as most third-graders get to
 'Charlotte's Web,'" the ad said, adding that fun books "are
 absent from too
 many classrooms."

 In response, generous New Yorkers have coughed up $250,000 to put about 80
 books in each of nearly 1,000 classrooms - including those in the
 97 schools
 on the list of the state's worst performers, and others in extremely poor
 neighborhoods.

 "We're trying to get to the most-needy schools first," said Karri
 Offstein,
 director of the drive.

 Meanwhile, even kids are trying to scrape pennies together for books.

 Third-graders at PS 137 in Bedford-Stuyvesant - where only 25.2 percent of
 fourth-graders passed the state test - held a penny drive this year to
 purchase them.

 They collected a grand total of $120.

 ''It's not much, but we'll buy paperbacks," said principal
 Carolyn Key. "You
 have to get it any way you can."

 A good library should have at least 10 books per child, experts say.

 But at PS 108, an average school in South Ozone Park, Queens - where about
 32 percent of the fourth-graders passed the state test - the library has
 only about two books each for its 1,500 kids.

 "And some books are very old," said principal Gloria Petitto. "We
 try not to
 throw out unless we can replace, and there are many books that are not
 current or attractive to children."

 "They like the new ones, the ones that are beautifully presented. The old
 ones don't get the same circulation."

 At overpacked PS 246 in the Fordham-Kingsbridge section of The
 Bronx - where
 26 percent of the fourth-graders passed the reading test - some teachers
 fill their classrooms with old books scrounged at flea markets.

 The school calls a small room with some computers and reference materials
 its library.

 "One of the big problems we have here is that parents are afraid to let
 their kids go out after school to the public library," said
 principal Frank
 Gonzalez.

[CTRL] Hazel O'Leary's Rocky Flats Horror Show [whistleblower axed]

1999-06-02 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

Wednesday June 2, 9:22 AM

Hazel O'Leary's Rocky Flats Horror Show

In a hair-raising Nukegate report that was largely overlooked as America
tuned out over the Memorial Day weekend, William J. Broad wrote in Sunday's
New York Times:

"For more than half a decade, the Clinton administration was shoveling
atomic secrets out the door as fast as it could, literally by the ton.
Millions of previously classified ideas and documents relating to nuclear
arms were released to all comers, including China's bomb makers."

The Times quoted then-presiding Energy Secretary Hazel O'Leary (1993 -
1997), who proudly proclaimed at the beginning of her tenure:

"The United States must stand as a leader. We are declassifying the largest
amount of information in the history of the department."

Now the American Spectator's Kenneth Timmerman adds another dimension to
O'Leary's "openess initiative," in a report that zeroes in on the new
policy's impact at nuclear storage sites like Rocky Flats, Colorado.

The Rocky Flats security scandal may be the most damaging yet, since the
cover-up is apparently still ongoing. Current Energy Secretary Bill
Richardson, who just gave department whistleblower Notra Trulock a $10,000
reward for exposing security breaches at Los Alamos, is desperately trying
to keep what O'Leary did at the Colorado site under wraps.

According to Timmerman, "Richardson is now attempting to prevent a top DOE
official in charge of safeguards and security from testifying before
Congress. Why? Because that official, Edward J. McCallum, had made clear his
intention to warn Congress and the public of devastating gaps in security
procedures at nuclear storage sites such as Rocky Flats."

Richardson already knows what McCallum has to say, since McCallum privately
warned the Clinton administration last January about trouble at Rocky Flats.
The consequences of the cover-up could be dramatic. "Terrorists could easily
penetrate the facility and steal weapons grade plutonium, or construct and
detonate a nuclear bomb on the site without DOE security teams being able to
prevent it," reports the Spectator, based on what McCallum told Timmerman.

It gets worse. McCallum was fired from his DOE post, or rather, "placed on
adminstrative leave without pay" just last month. Bill Richardson personally
gave the order to axe the whistleblower because he was "pissed off" at
McCallum's attempts to inform Congress, according to what sources have told
the Spectator.

White House flaks may have a tough time spinning the Rocky Flats scandal for
other reasons. Not only has the administration "repeatedly and obstinately"
refused to correct the problem, but Mrs. O'Leary may be vulnerable to
conflict of interest charges. Timmerman writes:

"Under O'Leary's stewardship, Rocky Flats cut its security force by 40
percent, allowing prime contactor Kaiser-Hill LLC to improve its profit
margin despite an overall reduction in the funds it received from DOE.
Indeed, Kaiser Hill actually earned performance bonuses from DOE, because
its cleanup operations were going ahead on schedule."

Kaiser-Hill was apparently grateful for Mrs. O'Leary's indulgence, since she
wound up on the board of ICF Kaiser, its parent company, upon her retirement
from DOE. She remains on Kaiser's board today, while her husband does
consulting work for the company.

O'Leary's Rocky Flats horror show only adds to the former Energy Secretary's
Nukegate woes. In 1997 probers discovered that she accepted $25,000 from
Chinese businessman Johnny Chung in the name of her favorite charity,
Africare.

Chung testified last month that the chief of Red Chinese intelligence gave
him $300,000 to help get Bill Clinton re-elected in 1996.

Civilian deaths 'necessary price'

Nato admits bombing bridge in Varvarin

Nato says civilian casualties in Yugoslavia are the price of defeating evil,
after three separate attacks in which at least 32 people are reported to
have died.



"There is always a cost to defeat an evil. It never comes free,
unfortunately. But the cost of failure to defeat a great evil is far
higher," said Nato spokesman Jamie Shea.

He insisted Nato planes had bombed only "legitimate designated military
targets" and if more civilians had died it was because Nato had been forced
into military action.



BBC's David Sillito: The number of civilian injuries continues to grow
Yugoslavia says at least 20 people were killed when Nato planes hit a
sanatorium and a neighbouring old people's home during a midnight raid in
the town of Surdilica in south-eastern Serbia on Sunday.

Another 11 are reported to have died in an attack on a bridge in Varvarin,
south-central Serbia, and one person died when a bomb hit a car carrying
foreign journalists.



Wreckage of the bridge at Varvarin
Alliance military spokesman General Konrad Freitag said Nato warplanes had
successfully hit an ammunition storage depot and a military barracks in the
raid on Surdulica.

Nato is still investigating the claims of civilian deaths.

Nato also described the attack on the bridge at Varvarin as a "designated
and legitimate target".

Mr Shea said: "Nato does not attack civilian targets, we attack exclusively
military targets and take every precaution to avoid inflicting harm on
civilians."

According to Belgrade, at least 11 civilians were killed and 40 injured.



Jon Leyne reports: "NATO denies allegations that its bombs are going astray"
Yugoslav news agency Tanjug said the area would have been crowded with
people attending the town market at 1pm local time (1100GMT) on Sunday, the
time of the attack.

Witnesses said four cars fell into the River Velika Morava during the first
waves of attacks and rescuers who went to help victims were hit in a second
wave of bombings.

(Click here to see a map of latest Nato strikes)

Tanjug also reported a car carrying foreign journalists in Kosovo was hit on
Sunday, although Nato says there is no evidence an alliance plane was
involved.



Jamie Shea: We have no information so far that we were responsible
The driver of the car, who was an interpreter, was killed and one British,
one French and one Italian journalist had been injured, said the agency.

Eve-Ann Prentice of The Times newspaper was treated in a hospital in Prizren
but has since been released.

Milosevic peace move

Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic has confirmed he will accept the G8
principles for ending the Kosovo conflict.




In a statement issued to Serbian radio, he said: "In line with our
consistent policy of peace and defence of freedom, the Federal Republic of
Yugoslavia has accepted the G8 principles and believes that the UN Security
Council, in line with the UN Charter, should now make it possible with its
resolution to move the solution to the crisis from the military to the
political track."

The US reacted with caution, saying it welcomed any positive development but
it was not clear all the terms had been accepted.

Michael Williams, a BBC correspondent in Belgrade, said Yugoslavia first
accepted the G8 principles as a basis for negotiation some three weeks ago.

But he said it was perhaps significant that the announcement had finally
come from the highest echelons of government.

Clinton calls for support

US President Bill Clinton has urged Americans to support the Kosovo
campaign.

"What we are doing today will save lives, including American lives, in the
future and it will give our children a better, safer world to live in," he
said in his Memorial Day address.

Mr Clinton said that if the United States was more heavily involved than
other countries, it was because the US had a greater capacity.



Jeremy Cooke reports: "The fighting threatens to spread into Albania itself"
In another development, there has been upsurge in fighting between Serb
forces and the Kosovo Liberation Army along the border between Kosovo and
Albania.

Serb shells hit an area less than a mile from the Morino crossing point used
by hundreds of refugees every day.

Mother urges adding gays to hate crime law

SANTA MONICA, June 1 – Judy Shepard knows nothing will bring back her son,
Matthew, who was beaten, tied to a wooden fence and left for dead on a
remote Wyoming roadside because he was gay.

 She called on California lawmakers Tuesday to pass a bill that
would protect gays from similar hate crimes at school, and spare parents
from the pain she lives.
AB 222, drafted by Sheila Kuehl, D-Santa Monica, would add sexual
orientation to sections of the California Education Code that protect
students from other forms of discrimination.
The code now states that every student has the right to educational
opportunity without regard to “race, creed, color, religion, national
origin, sex or economic status.”
The bill was defeated on the Assembly floor during its 1997-98 session.
It is expected to be voted on in the Assembly sometime this week. It would
then move to the state Senate.
Shepard’s mother wrote that “it is time for parents, legislators and
community leaders to take the first steps toward protecting all of our
children, as they strive each day to learn and grow.”
The letter is addressed to a “Member of the California State Assembly.”
It was released by Kuehl.
“Whether the bullying is based on a child’s disability, race, religion
or sexual orientation, it is inexcusable.” who spit anti-gay epithets at
him, even as they beat him to death,” she wrote.
“If legislation such as AB 222 had existed in my home state of Wyoming,
perhaps these troubled young men would have learned a fundamental respect
for all people.”

[CTRL] Blood on the White House [is there no end to it?]

1999-06-01 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

The New Australian
Blood on the White House
and firebombed evidence
By Gerard Jackson
No. 121,   31 May - 6 June 1999
When it comes to protecting Bill Clinton's backside the Australian media is
without peer, even putting CBS and CNN to shame. What it cannot cover up or
ignore it downplays or ridicules. So sickening is its shameless support for
Clinton that Murdoch's Australian even published an item by Cameron Forbes1
containing smart-aleck and misleading comments about Juanita Broaddrick. You
remember her, don't you? The woman who claimed Clinton raped her. That no
one seems to doubt the charge was also ignored by The Australian.

This brings us to bloodgate, another scandal that American-based Australian
journalists ignored — or is it suppressed? When Clinton was governor of
Arkansas in the 1980s he allowed the selling of HIV-tainted plasma that had
been taken from convicts. Since the early 1980s the sale of convict blood in
the US has been illegal. Nevertheless, exports to Canada continued for
years. To make sure of sales the origin of the contaminated plasma was
withheld from the unsuspecting Canadians. Once they discovered the source of
the contamination they demanded that the U.S. Justice Department investigate
Clinton's role in a prison program that clearly violated a 1983 FDA ban on
the use of blood from convicts. Last January 1000 victims of this murderous
scheme sued Canadian officials for $US1.1 billion. They plan to file a
similar suit will against the FDA and the state of Arkansas, another of
Clinton's victims.

The main inspiration for the bloodgate inquiry came from Dr Michael Galster,
a former employee of Health Management Associates, the Arkansas company
contracted by Arkansas to collect and sell prison blood. By pure coincidence
this company was also run by the chair of Clinton's re-election finance
committee. Moreover, when the company's license was revoked by the state's
medical authorities because of its poor medical practices, Clinton abused
his power as governor and ordered the license to be renewed.

Outraged at what Clinton did to them, those Canadian haemophiliacs who have
been infected with hepatitis C and HIV are demanding justice. Last February
hundreds of these victims of Arkansas political corruption gathered in
Washington to condemn the man they hold responsible for their tragic plight.
Dr Galster addressed the protesters and publicly accused Clinton of
"personally withholding 400 cases of documents" that described HMA's
shipping schemes.

This is when another of Clinton's remarkable coincidences occurred. On
Tuesday night the 18 May Dr Galster's Clinic in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, was
firebombed leaving only a burnt out shell. DR Galster has yet to say whether
documents on Clinton's bloodgate scandal were stored in the Clinic. At the
same time, again by pure coincidence, someone broke into the Quebec chapter
of the Canadian Haemophilia Society. The society had recently discovered
documents showing that Finance Minister Paul Martin was a board member of
the corporation that owned Connaught Laboratories, the company that
distributed the Arkansas contaminated plasma in Canada. Like I said, just
another Clinton coincidence.

And where were our intrepid Australian journalists? Those bronzed media
heroes of a "sunburnt country." Nowhere, is the answer. They allowed this
appalling scandal to go completely unreported in the Australian media. While
Stewart Cameron and Cameron Forbes of The Australian seem to forever scurry
around America's political landscape reporting stories that confirm their
left-wing bigotry, Clinton's scandals are never investigated.

[CTRL] A tale of two bloodgates: another media cover-up by media lords

1999-06-01 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

The New Australian
A tale of two bloodgates:
another media cover-up
By Gerard Jackson
No. 108,   21-27 February 1999
Rupert Murdoch's Australian is certainly hot on justice and political
corruption. On 9 February it published a news report on the French
bloodgate, following it up on the 12 February with another lengthy report.
Several former French government ministers are on trial for allowing
AIDS-contaminated blood to be distributed. About one thousand people died
because of their actions and there is no doubt that many more will follow
them. What is really mysterious, or so it at first seems, is that America's
bloodgate scandal, one that may have infected about 2,000 Americans, not to
mention the number of Canadians it killed, has not been reported by the
Australian media, and in particular Cameron Forbes, The Australian's
Washington-based correspondent, even though the RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted
Police) are investigating the case. Of course, the mystery evaporates once
one knows that America's contaminated blood scandal originated in Arkansas
when that lovable rogue ol' Bill Clinton was governor. Once again, it is who
you are that seems to count, not what you have done.

The squalid story goes back, as do so many, to Arkansas in the early 1980s
when Clinton was governor. HMA (Health Management Associates) won a $US3
million contract to provide medical services to Arkansas state prisons. The
contract also allowed the company to collect blood from prisoners and sell
it, but US health regulations didn't permit the sale of prisoners' blood
within the country. However, HMA was able to evade the rules by selling the
blood in Canada, with fatal consequences. When HMA had its license withdrawn
by the authorities because of its poor medical practices, Bill Clinton
publicly defended the company and used his authority as governor in 1985 to
have its license renewed, even though the company was accused of using
inmates to draw blood and had employed bogus doctors.

Now why should this "potentially great" and "flawed man" (the Australian
media calls him "flawed" rather than corrupt) go out of his way to support
the practices of a fraudulent medical company. After all, Clinton is man who
knows how to share pain — or should I say inflict it? This is a man who does
nothing for nothing. And so it was here. The company was headed by none
other than Leonard K. Dunn, a key Clinton supporter and important donor to
the Bill and Hillary charity foundation. Not only did a grateful Bill reward
the generous Mr Dunn with the prison contract but he also got him appointed
to the state business council. And would you believe it, the same Mr Dunn
ended up with Madison Guaranty Savings  Loan's assets, well what was left
of them after the Clintons had got through with it. Ain't that just cosy

Can't you imagine the howls of outrage from our left-wing crusading
journalists if a Republican had done this. I know I can. Fortunately, even
the best laid plans of rats and men go awry. DR Michael Galster was working
in the prison system when HMA was operating. Using the pseudonym Michael
Sullivan he wrote a fictionalized account of the scandal and called it Blood
Trail. Ceasing to fear Clinton's attack machine and his media stormtroopers,
Galster went public by revealing his identity. He not only accuses Clinton
of organizing bribes to various state official officials to make sure that
HMA could continue its blood-selling operations, he suggests that Clinton
benefited financially from the operation.

Though the scandal has been extensively covered by the Canadian papers, the
mainstream American media has done its best to ignore it — censor it would
be a more appropriate description. As expected, the Australian media has
also joined the 'conspiracy of silence,' even ignoring a group of former
Arkansas prisoners who are launching a class action suit against the state,
claiming that HMA infected them during blood donations. The revelation that
the RCMP is now working with the FBI regarding criminal charges in the US is
another uncomfortable fact that our fearless journalists ignored. Moreover,
Vince Fosters ghost, so to speak, has also been brought into the scandal.*

A Press Conference will be held on February 24 at the National Press Club in
Washington to demand a federal investigation into Clinton's 'bloodgate'
scandal. Will Cameron Forbes and Cameron Stewart (The Australian's New York
correspondent) be there? I doubt it. Caped Crusaders they ain't. In fact, I
don't even consider them to be real journalists. Forbes couldn't hotfoot it
fast enough to Jasper, Texas, to report on a race-inspired murder. And
Stewart couldn't get to Wyoming fast enough either when it was claimed a
young man had been murdered for being a homosexual. But neither of them ever
bothered to scurry down Arkansas way to investigate a single Clinton
scandal.

I don't know whether Clinton is genuinely guilty of any wrongdoing
concerning HMA's

Defending Clinton: Murdoch's Australian sinks even lower
By Gerard Jackson
No. 105,   1-7 February 1999

To say that the thought of reading Cameron Forbes' US reports fills me with
foreboding would not be an understatement. I believe the public basically
wants one thing from the media — honesty. Well, they are not getting it from
Rupert Murdoch's Australian. Last week I wrote* that Forbes' lied when he
stated that DNA tests showed there was "near certainty" that Thomas
Jefferson fathered Woodson Hemings, and that Forbes had done this to make
Clinton look better. It is not surprising, therefore, that the man who
cunningly libelled a Founding Father is perfectly willing to trash the
reputation of a Republican Congressman by insinuating that he is a racist
(The Australian 13/1/99).

Forbes began in his usual honest and objective manner by claiming that Larry
Flynt's description of Congressman Bob Barr as "Attila the Hun" was "fair".
Because a Republican Congressman holds strong conservative convictions an
Australian journalist compares him to a fifth century barbarian who was
particularly noted for his cruelty and wanton destruction, and then tries to
pass it off as fair comment. Of course, Forbes could laugh it off as mere
hyperbole, just simple political point scoring. This will not do. He means
what he says. This is what the Left really think of conservatives and that
is why it treats them with contempt.

He continued the assault on Barr's character by telling us that Barr spent
eight years as a CIA agent, that he opposes homosexual marriages, is a
member of National Rifle Association and that he helped put a stop to
lengthy appeals by convicts on death row. Now to Forbes' left-wing
mentality, these revelations are expected to prejudice readers against Barr
whose real offence is to be one of Clinton's sternest critics. Getting into
his stride, Forbes then accused Barr of having "been cozy with a US racist
group." This is a brazen lie and it is time it was put to rest. Bob Barr was
invited to address the Council of Conservative Citizens. As is the normal
procedure, his staff checked out the organisation and gave it the all clear.
However, it was only after Barr addressed it that it was found to be a front
for a white supremacist group. When he found out, Barr immediately denounced
the organisation and pointed out that if he had known its real views he
would never have addressed it. And this is why the US meda has not pushed
it. Yet Forbes maliciously writes as if Barr was a member of the Ku Klux
Klan.

The same self-righteous Forbes igored the fact that during his first run for
Congress Democratic House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt spoke before
Metro South Citizens Council, a prominent St. Louis white-rights
organization, to ask for its endorsement. After he was elected he attended
two of the group's social functions. The Metro South Citizens Council was
also the precursor of the Council of Conservative Citizens, the same
organisation that Forbes attacked Barr for addressing. It is facts like
these that make us truly realise magnitude of Forbes hypocrisy and political
bigotry. No wonder the man sickens me.

Democrat Senator Robert Byrd is another who has spoken in defence of Clinton
and against impeachment. Byrd is held in high regard by America's Leftist
media and has even been called, among other things, the Senate's conscience.
But this is the same Byrd who joined the Ku Klux Klan and who strongly
opposed civil rights legislation in the sixties, all of which escaped Forbes
attention — but then so much does. And speaking of racism, why not a word
about Jesse Jackson? The same Jesse Jackson who called New York "Hymie
Town"; the very same Jesse who only four years ago shared a platform with
the viciously anti-Semitic Louis Farrakhan. Instead, Forbes gives readers
false stories about Republican racism. And Murdoch's Australian calls this
journalism.

Forbes made sarcastic comments about the case of Jane Doe # 5 (26/12/98),
followed by a claim that she swore in an affidavit that Clinton had not made
any unwelcome advances. Well, that was another strike against the dreaded
Clinton-haters, or was it? Now Jane Doe # 5, real name Juanita Broaddrick,
signed her affidavit on the 2 January 1998, but on the 8 April 1998, she
told the Office of Independent Counsel investigators that her affidavit was
false and that her original story of being sexually attacked by Clinton is
true. Even though these facts are well-known in the American media, having
been aired by NBC last March, Forbes still wrote eight months later as if
the affidavit had not been repudiated! (Perhaps he would like to explain how
he missed the story).

Moreover, the Broaddrick story is not going away. About ten days ago she was
given an 8-hour in-depth interview by NBC NEWS reporter Lisa Myers.
Broaddrick was assured by Myers that the interview would immediately air on
Dateline. It didn't. Last Tuesday Myers

[CTRL] Butchers of the Balkans [sloboklintooalgoreblair]

1999-05-30 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

FRIDAY
MAY 28
1999



 Has NATO committed war crimes?




The International Criminal Tribunal for Yugoslavia has rightfully indicted
Slobodan Milosevic for crimes against humanity committed against Kosovar
Albanians. If there is any justice in this world, they will send the
"Butcher of the Balkans" to prison for the atrocities that he has ordered.
If Slobodan is guilty for what his forces have done, can we allow NATO to
bomb Serbia with reckless abandon? Shouldn't we hold NATO to the same
standard of conduct as the Yugoslavs? According to Thursday's Irish Times,
an overwhelming majority of Greeks want Bill Clinton and Tony Blair indicted
for war crimes.

NATO insists that it has no liability for anything that it does and anyone
that it kills because "it's Slobodan's fault." Let's look at what the rules
of war say about NATO's arrogant position.

After World War II, the Charter of the International Military Tribunal,
Nuremberg, Aug. 8, 1945, adopted the following definitions:


War crimes: namely, violations of the laws or customs of war. Such
violations include, but not be limited to, murder, ill-treatment ... of
civilian population, ... wanton destruction of cities, towns or villages, or
devastation not justified by military necessity.

Crimes against Humanity: namely, murder ... and other inhumane acts
committed against any civilian population, before or during the war. ...
The United Nations is still using these definitions today. See Convention on
the Non-Applicability of Statutory Limitations to War Crimes and Crimes
Against Humanity, G.A. res. 2391 (XXIII), annex, 23 U.N. GAOR Supp. (no. 18)
at 40, U.N. Doc. A/7218 (1968).

On Monday, the Washington Post said that "NATO air strikes on Yugoslavia's
power grid left millions of people without electricity or water service
today, bringing the war over Kosovo more directly into the lives of
civilians across the country."

Question: Does a deliberate attack against civilian targets for the sole
intention of causing widespread suffering, injury and possible death to
innocent civilians constitute a war crime or crime against humanity?

The Washington Post said that "Three consecutive nights of air attacks
caused extensive blackouts in Belgrade, Novi Sad and Nis, the three largest
cities in Serbia. ... Officials at the Pentagon and at NATO headquarters in
Belgium said allied jets deliberately attacked the power grid, aiming to
shut it down more completely and for longer periods of time. ... U.S.
officials estimated the attacks had shut off power to about 80 percent of
Serbia."

Question: Can NATO prove that there was a "military necessity" to deprive 80
percent of the civilian population of electricity?

The Washington Post said that there is a growing sense in Serbia that "the
power outages (are) evidence that the genuine aim of NATO is not to expel
Yugoslav troops and Serbian special police units from Kosovo, but to punish
civilians and wreck the country."

Question: If we can prove that this is the purpose of the latest bombing
campaign, does this constitute a war crime or crime against humanity?

The Washington Post said that "the attacks also slashed water reserves by
damaging pumps and cutting electricity to the few pumps that were still
operative. Belgrade's water utility said that reserves of drinking water had
been reduced to 8 percent ... and that 60 percent of the city was without
water service."

Question: Is a deliberate attempt to deprive millions of civilians access to
clean and potable water a war crime or a crime against humanity?

The Washington Post reported that "... senior allied military officials
acknowledged that they also want to damage the quality of everyday life so
that suffering citizens will start questioning the intransigence of their
political leadership."

Question: Is a deliberate attempt to cause widespread suffering of innocent
civilians a war crime or a crime against humanity?

On April 19, the London Times reported that NATO air strikes against
petrochemical, fertilizer and refinery targets created "an ecological
disaster" of toxic gases and water pollution. Gases released by these
attacks had poisoned at least 50 residents. Fish kills extended from
Yugoslavia to Romania, Bulgaria and the Black Sea.

Question: Does the deliberate creation of toxic hazards to civilians
constitute a war crime or a crime against humanity?

NATO has bombed hospitals, prisons, embassies, homes, apartment buildings,
civilian factories, busses, trains, churches, and bridges. Killing, maiming,
poisoning and harming civilians in Serbia will not protect Kosovar
Albanians.

Question: Have NATO's bombs created wanton destruction of cities, towns or
villages, or devastation not justified by military necessity?

I believe that we can make a strong case that some of the actions

I challenge anyone to prove me wrong!!

The Bill of Rights is a "Constraint" on the federal thugs imposed by the
People.

Amendments subsequent to the Bill of Rights, the intent of which is to limit
individual freedoms, are unconstitutional and were legislated by thugs, and
ratified, if at all, by a uneducated electorate.

Only the People can give the federal thugs the tools with which do their
job, which is the protection of individual rights, including property
rights.

  FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
  May 26, 1999
 
  BUSH REQUESTS "LIMITS TO FREEDOM"
  Internet bites Bush: Not news. Bush bites Internet: News!
 
  Contact: Ray Thomas (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED])
   Zack Exley (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED])
 
  The satirical website GWBush.com has received several million
 hits since a
  press conference Friday at which Texas governor and probable
 presidential
  candidate George W. Bush called its owner "a garbage man" and
 said "There
  ought to be limits to freedom."  The outburst followed two
 separate attempts
  by Bush campaign attorneys to shut down the site. (For coverage of the
  comments, please visit the press archive at http://gwbush.com/.)
 
  Those behind GWBush.com--a Boston computer consultant named
 Zack Exley, and
  RTMARK--ascribe their site's newfound notoriety to the
 interesting nature of
  Bush's words themselves, and also to the ease and speed with
 which ordinary
  people can make their voices heard on the Internet. The
 statement, besides
  being broadcast on television and reprinted in hundreds of
 newspapers in the
  U.S. and abroad, immediately became a hot topic of discussion on the
  Internet.
 
  According to RTMARK spokesperson Ray Thomas, "Anyone at all can
 now compete
  for attention with huge, wealthy corporations--or with well-funded
  candidates. Bush's 'limits to freedom' quote is interesting because it
  reflects the (usually unspoken) desire of certain market segments to
  suppress this potential of the Internet."
 
  "The Internet has amplified the voice of the ordinary citizen,"
 said Exley.
  "This web site is only two months old and cost only $210, yet we already
  have more readers than many major political magazines.
 Americans are excited
  about this new power and freedom, and they will distrust a candidate who
  says he wants to limit that freedom."
 
  Bush's statement was the latest in a series of widely-reported gaffes
  related to GWBush.com. Here follows a blow-by-blow account of
 the action:
 
  1. The Bush campaign fails to reserve permutations of Bush's
 name, and in
  December of 1998 Zack Exley purchases GWBush.com, GWBush.org
 and GBush.org.
 
  2. Upon noticing GWBush.com, with content by RTMARK and Exley,
 Bush campaign
  advisor Karl Rove belatedly scrambles to reserve up to 260
 'bush'-related
  domain names (Bush campaign accounts of the actual number
 vary). When this
  frenzy becomes a running joke on the internet, Bush
 spokespeople claim the
  names were reserved in the summer of 1998. (Internic records
 available to
  the public reveal that the domains names were in fact reserved
 two months
  after Exley reserved his.)
 
  3. Bush attorney Benjamin Ginsberg sends Exley a
 cease-and-desist letter,
  and shortly afterward registers a complaint with the Federal Elections
  Commission.
 
  4. The Bush campaign tells press interested in the above situation that
  GWBush.com contains click-throughs to pornography sites. RTMARK
 and Exley
  are inundated with emails from frustrated visitors seeking
 pictures of nude
  women.  (Note: GWBush.com has never contained nor linked to pornographic
  images of any kind.)
 
  5. The Bush campaign tells press that GWBush.com is deceptive.
 (Meanwhile,
  the Bush campaign uses the negative domain names it has
  bought--bushblows.com, bushsux.org, etc.--to point unsuspecting Internet
  users to the official

Cattlemen angry as state foots $6m buffalo bill
FROM DAMIAN WHITWORTH IN WASHINGTON


BUFFALO, which by the beginning of this century had been hunted almost to
extinction, have returned in such numbers that the market for their meat is
saturated and the US Government is bailing out ranchers.
The Agriculture Department is spending $6 million (£3.75 million) this year
buying up a quarter of the ground bison meat production. The surplus meat is
being given to nutritional programmes for Indians, whose way of life once
revolved around following the herds as they roamed across the great plains.

The move has incensed cattle farmers because the Government is paying twice
the price of ground beef for the excess produce. Furthermore, they regard
buffalo ranchers such as Ted Turner of CNN as rich men who have reintroduced
the creature as a novelty to amuse themselves. There are now about 250,000
bison across America, mainly in private herds. Mr Turner, vice-chairman of
Time Warner, has 17,000 bison on ranches in Montana and elsewhere and the
national population is believed to be increasing at the rate of 20 per cent
a year.

This is a remarkable recovery from 100 years ago when only a few hundred
bison, commonly known as buffalo, remained on the continent. At the
beginning of the 19th century there were more than 60 million. Pioneers
described stampedes of the beasts in countless numbers.

The Union Pacific railway brought hunters who shot the animals in their
thousands from the comfort of luxury carriages.

New buffalo-meat bail-out program is
"welfare for epicurean billionaires"

WASHINGTON, DC -- Taxpayers are getting "buffaloed" again,
thanks to a new federal program that is buying surplus bison meat at
inflated prices -- a subsidy that's going straight into the pockets of
people like billionaire Ted Turner.

"The federal government has created a new form of food:
Buffalo-pork," charged Libertarian Party National Director Steve
Dasbach. "Taxpayers are picking up the buffalo bill, and welfare
billionaires like Ted Turner are profiting."

The Agriculture Department has announced that it will spend $6
million this year to buy surplus bison meat -- or about one-quarter of
the industry's ground-meat production.

The problem: There are 250,000 commercial bison in America
now, a number that's growing by about 20% a year. Bison ranchers are
producing more meat than the public wants and the surplus is piling
up -- so the federal government has stepped in to buy the extra meat
at $3.45 a pound.

"This program is welfare for rich epicureans: Subsidizing the
production of a luxury meat that most Americans can't even afford,"
said Dasbach. "Even worse, it's welfare for billionaires, since the
single largest producer of buffalo meat is Ted Turner."

Turner, the vice chairman of the mega-corporation Time-Warner,
raises 17,000 bison on 1.4 million acres of ranches, sprawling across
Montana, New Mexico, and Nebraska.

"It's a pathetic sight: A billionaire like Ted Turner with a
tin cup in hand, begging for hand-outs from the taxpayer," said
Dasbach. "People who make the minimum wage are subsidizing a
billionaire's hobby of producing high-priced novelty steaks for other
wealthy people."

Mindful of the negative PR generated by
help-the-rich-get-richer government programs, the federal government
has promised that the bison bail-out is only a "temporary" thing.

In fact, USDA Agricultural Marketing Services bureaucrat
Enrique Figueroa vowed, "We are not going to be buying bison
infinitely."

But Libertarians are cynical about such promises.

"Remember the words of Milton Friedman: Nothing is so permanent
as a temporary government program," said Dasbach: "We suspect that as
long as Ted Turner wants a hand-out, obliging federal bureaucrats will
continue to roast the taxpayer for his financial benefit."

Ironically, bison were nearly extinct at the turn of the
century, when there were fewer than 1,500 animals alive. Now, thanks to
the commercial success of bison burgers, steaks, and roasts, that
number has skyrocketed -- especially in the past decade as buffalo meat
has become more widely known and popular.

"The buffalo-production industry seems to have set a new
record: From zero to subsidy in just a few years," said Dasbach. "But
buffalo were saved from extinction with help from the free market.
Now it's time to let the free market work without government
interference -- and make this bison bail-out program extinct."

[CTRL] Bill Clinton isn't taking my calls today. [9,000 Purple Hearts ordered]

1999-05-28 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

 9,000 PURPLE HEARTS - THAT'S AN ORDER

 By STEVE DUNLEAVY





 LEE GRAVES this week got some good news for his business, but not very good
news for soldiers.

"On Wednesday, we got the official order to make 9,000 Purple Hearts," he
told me from Tomball, Texas.

Purple Hearts are awarded to servicemen and women who are wounded in the
zone of hostility during war.

But we are not fighting a war, according to Bill Clinton, we are just
"degrading" Slobbo's war machine. OK.

Then why in good God's name are we making Purple Hearts if we are not in a
war and we don't expect casualties?

"I was a little surprised to get that big an order from the Defense
Logistics Agency," said Graves, boss of medal-making Graco Industries.

"I have been producing medals and campaign ribbons for 20 years and never
have I been asked by the Defense Department to come up with a Purple Heart.

"But 9,000 Purple Hearts. Yes, well I am surprised."

The order is stone-dead cold, according to Lee, a Good Ol' Boy who has done
his time in the trenches of foreign wars.

"I think I am right - they [Washington] want 1,400 Purple Hearts for
November, 1,400 for December, 1,600 for January, 1,600 for February, 1,600
for March and 1,400 for April."

Unless we have a war, why would the Defense Department be asking for Purple
Hearts?

"Off the top of my head, I am guessing that 9,000 would be about 10 percent
casualties of our being there. Wounded, I pray. That sounds right. I sure
hope nobody gets killed."

So, even though Clinton has always told us that ground troops would never be
an option and he announced it to Slobodan Milosevic, guess what.

Well, the Pentagon must think otherwise.

I called Christina Di Memmo, the public-affairs officer at the Defense
Logistics Agency in Philadelphia, which is the groundhog for Pentagon
buying.

"I am not the person to give an official response," she said politely.

If I can't get a comment from an official spokesperson, then who can I get
to talk?

Dutifully, she called back later and said, "We are simply maintaining the
quantity of supply."

Nobody wanted 9,000 Purple Hearts last year.

Bill Clinton isn't taking my calls today.

Silly Billy.

Now, if Silly Billy for once in his life is playing good poker with Slobbo,
and not tipping his mitt, I will, for once in my life, applaud him.

But if the Pentagon is saying, "Screw this draft-dodging mook, we are going
in, ground troops and all," then it tells us the measure of Clinton's
intelligence.

William Kristol, editor of The Weekly Standard, told a packed New York Post
breakfast forum on Tuesday: "There will be U.S. troops in Kosovo by
November."

Whether his "Kristol Ball" is better than mine or whether he knew about
9,000 Purple Hearts being ordered, I don't know.

But I do know what Lee Graves says honestly: "For 20 years, we have been
making medals and ribbons for the armed services.

"We have never been requested to make Purple Hearts for the armed forces.
Never. Truthfully, I hope they are not needed."

Yep, I think we are going in.

Better to kill the killers than bomb the living daylights out of innocent
civilians who are the descendants, as Henry Kissinger said, of people who
stood by us in two world wars and spat in Hitler's face.

 'Huang plea agreement a fraud'
Judicial Watch condemns Reno's deal




By Stephan Archer
) 1999 WorldNetDaily.com

A day after it was announced that John Huang, a key figure in the Chinagate
scandal, would plead guilty to a single felony charge as part of an
agreement to stay out of jail, Judicial Watch http://www.judicialwatch.org/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 announced the plea agreement was a fraud.
Although Huang will be pleading guilty to a one-count criminal charge, which
accuses him of violating campaign finance laws between 1992-1994, Larry
Klayman, chairman and general counsel at Judicial Watch, believes the whole
deal between Huang and the Justice Department is a "miscarriage of justice."
Judicial Watch first deposed Huang in 1996 in an attempt to discover what he
knew and how he was involved in the Chinagate scandal which allegedly
included selling trade mission seats to China for political contributions to
the Democratic National Committee.

Huang was once again deposed by Judicial Watch last month where he asserted
his Fifth Amendment privilege over 1,000 times.

"Huang deserves more than a slap of the wrist," insisted Klayman. "Reno,
through this sweetheart deal with Huang is protecting her patron Clinton. It
is outrageous."

Judicial Watch believes it is all too coincidental that on the same day the
Cox Report was released, the Justice Department announced its plea agreement
with Huang.

"It is clear that the Reno Justice Department leaked news of Huang's plea
bargain to try to create the appearance of doing something," Klayman said.

Klayman believes, with this latest event in the Chinagate investigation, the
Clinton administration and Justice Department have shown how clever they
are. With the Cox report heating things up and with Judicial Watch getting
closer to the truth behind Chinagate, Clinton and Reno played the "race
card."

"While guilty of criminal conduct, no one ever accused the Clinton
administration of not being clever," Klayman said. "Its strategy is to
appear to hold Huang's coterie of Asian-Americans accountable, blame them as
the sole cause of the wholesale bribery and treason in this administration
and appear to burn them at the stake."

"But where are the prosecutions against 'the white guys' in the White
House?" asked Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch. "So far, only Asians,
Indians, Indonesians, African Americans and Hispanics have been charged with
minor crimes and then let off the hook. It is clear that the Clinton
administration is playing a dishonest and cynical game commonly known as the
race card."

Fitton said now that Huang has immunity, Judicial Watch will ask the court
to bring him back for some more testimony to make sure that "the white guys
in the White House" are held accountable. In some ways, Fitton pointed out,
Huang's immunity might actually help Judicial Watch's investigation because
Huang can no longer appeal to the Fifth Amendment when giving testimony in
court.

Regarding Judicial Watch's intentions to haul Huang back in court, Klayman
said, "We expect that the Reno/Clinton Justice Department will again oppose
this, as it is deathly afraid of anyone, except itself, investigating the
biggest and most damaging scandal in American history, one that will
eventually bring the Clinton-Gore administration down, including its Justice
Department."

[CTRL] ..travel in China by 'bicycle', the way the Chinese do.

1999-05-28 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

Brothers and Sisters,
Highly recommend you know how to ride a bicycle.


Welcome to Inside China Today's travel section. Here we have provided basic
information about getting around in China and things to see and do in a few
of China's major cities.

Traveling between Chinese cities can be done by air, train or bus. The Civil
Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) acts as a national travel agent with
booking offices scattered around major cities. China has many domestic
airlines and the same rules about flying apply as anywhere. Lonely Planet's
China travel guide says not to purchase airline tickets in China because as
a foreigner you will pay two and a half times as much according to a CAAC
regulation.

Buses are slow but cheap and provide a good chance to view some of the
Chinese countryside you may not otherwise see. Take government-run buses
instead of private ones whenever you can because government drivers can be
imprisoned for causing an accident and this may ensure a safer ride.

There are an estimated 52,000 km (32,000 miles) of train tracks in China,
most built since 1949, so you can probably get wherever you are going by
rail. Trains are crowded and foreigners will pay three times as much as
Chinese nationals.

It is also possible to travel in China by bicycle, the way the Chinese do.
Most travel agents and hotels will have bicycles for rent and bike-for-rent
shops are in every city. While cycling around the countryside beware of
riding into closed areas – areas that are strictly forbidden for foreigners
without a permit.

Visitors to China may also consider taking an organized tour of a particular
city, area or even traveling to China as part of a group tour.

[CTRL] draft-dodging waco killer orders 9,000 purple hearts

 9,000 PURPLE HEARTS - THAT'S AN ORDER

 By STEVE DUNLEAVY





 LEE GRAVES this week got some good news for his business, but not very good
news for soldiers.

"On Wednesday, we got the official order to make 9,000 Purple Hearts," he
told me from Tomball, Texas.

Purple Hearts are awarded to servicemen and women who are wounded in the
zone of hostility during war.

But we are not fighting a war, according to Bill Clinton, we are just
"degrading" Slobo's war machine. OK.

Then why in good God's name are we making Purple Hearts if we are not in a
war and we don't expect casualties?

"I was a little surprised to get that big an order from the Defense
Logistics Agency," said Graves, boss of medal-making Graco Industries.

"I have been producing medals and campaign ribbons for 20 years and never
have I been asked by the Defense Department to come up with a Purple Heart.

"But 9,000 Purple Hearts. Yes, well I am surprised."

The order is stone-dead cold, according to Lee, a Good Ol' Boy who has done
his time in the trenches of foreign wars.

"I think I am right - they [Washington] want 1,400 Purple Hearts for
November, 1,400 for December, 1,600 for January, 1,600 for February, 1,600
for March and 1,400 for April."

Unless we have a war, why would the Defense Department be asking for Purple
Hearts?

"Off the top of my head, I am guessing that 9,000 would be about 10 percent
casualties of our being there. Wounded, I pray. That sounds right. I sure
hope nobody gets killed."

So, even though Clinton has always told us that ground troops would never be
an option and he announced it to Slobodan Milosevic, guess what.

Well, the Pentagon must think otherwise.

I called Christina Di Memmo, the public-affairs officer at the Defense
Logistics Agency in Philadelphia, which is the groundhog for Pentagon
buying.

"I am not the person to give an official response," she said politely.

If I can't get a comment from an official spokesperson, then who can I get
to talk?

Dutifully, she called back later and said, "We are simply maintaining the
quantity of supply."

Nobody wanted 9,000 Purple Hearts last year.

Bill Clinton isn't taking my calls today.

Silly Billy.

Now, if Silly Billy for once in his life is playing good poker with Slobbo,
and not tipping his mitt, I will, for once in my life, applaud him.

But if the Pentagon is saying, "Screw this draft-dodging mook, we are going
in, ground troops and all," then it tells us the measure of Clinton's
intelligence.

William Kristol, editor of The Weekly Standard, told a packed New York Post
breakfast forum on Tuesday: "There will be U.S. troops in Kosovo by
November."

Whether his "Kristol Ball" is better than mine or whether he knew about
9,000 Purple Hearts being ordered, I don't know.

But I do know what Lee Graves says honestly: "For 20 years, we have been
making medals and ribbons for the armed services.

"We have never been requested to make Purple Hearts for the armed forces.
Never. Truthfully, I hope they are not needed."

Yep, I think we are going in.

Better to kill the killers than bomb the living daylights out of innocent
civilians who are the descendants, as Henry Kissinger said, of people who
stood by us in two world wars and spat in Hitler's face.

Clinton in violation of law
Had 60 days to pull-out of Kosovo or get approval -- neither has happened

 WASHINGTON, DC -- As of 12:01 am Wednesday, May 26, President Clinton
will be in clear violation of the 1973 War Powers Resolution. This is the
first time a president has violated the resolution since its enactment.

 "President Clinton has nothing left to claim: he is in complete
violation of the Wars Powers Resolution, there is simply no other
interpretation," said US Rep. Ron Paul (R, TX).

 Rep. Paul is one of 26 Members of Congress who have filed a lawsuit in
federal court against President Clinton in regards to his violation of the
War Powers Resolution and the US Constitution.

 "No one can argue that a president must, when there is a direct, clear
and present danger to American lives, take defensive actions to protect our
national interest. However, 60 days ago this president decided to take
aggressive action against a sovereign nation; and has since had
congressional authorization rejected by a vote of 427 to 2," said Rep.
Paul

[CTRL] Don't Go Casting Your Pearls (Before Swine). [carl klang]

1999-05-28 Thread Peter L. Sroufe

 -Caveat Lector-

Don't Go Casting Your Pearls (Before Swine).

If you like the US country-influenced style of mainstream singers, but have
a problem with some of their lyrics, then Carl Klang is the solution. If
Garth Brooks was a loyal Spearhead reader instead of a flippy-floppy
liberal, this is the kind of material he'd be producing, but he wouldn't be
any better.

The first track I heard was the satirical Don't Go Casting Your Pearls
(Before Swine). This is Carl's toe-tapping account of his experiences with
some of the 'porkiest people' in the controlled media, including the New
York Times and TV stations such as CBS and CNN. As he tells us:-

"I should'a never let 'em turn their lyin' cameras on
'Cause when the cuttin' and editin' was finally done
They put horns on my head by changin' everything I said
They made me sound like the Devils's own son."
