All letter samples contain the same strain of anthrax,
corresponding to the AMES strain in the N. Arizona
State University database (which has been used for
identification). The Ames substrain possessed by N.
Arizona State is referred to herein as the "reference
strain." That strain was obtained from Porton Down
(UK) in the mid-90's (the sample was marked "October
1932"); Porton had gotten it from Fort Detrick.

his role in the Watergate cover-up he was charged with

about Bush's Executive Order 13233 - a move that makes
Nixon's attempts at secrecy look like child's play.

Olivera, a factory labourer and spokesperson for la

There is provably, a faceless, elite and totalitarian
government that rules this planet through a network of
secret organisations. These organisations are not
secret in the sense that they are not known about,
they are secret in the sense that it is very hard to
find out what goes on behind closed doors. Nearly all
of the politicians we know and love are members of one
or more of these organisations. Others are kept in
line through fear and the political matrix itself such
as the controlled party whips in England. The false
political parties that the media present us with, are
exactly that, false. The secret government ignores
national boundaries controls all sides of the
political debate and works relentlessly towards an
agenda of total global domination. Remember, secrecy
is only required if there is something to hide.

In trying to appraise this issue of law enforcement,
much has been written and much more will be written.
One point that everyone seems to agree on is that
crime is out of control, and something must be done
about it. We call America the land of the free, and
refer to the Soviet Union as a police state. But the
facts tell us another story: they show that this
country holds more people per capita in jail than any
other country, including the Soviet Union and South
Africa. In reality, most people in America live in a
police state, and are completely unaware of it. There
is little difference between tyranny in governments,
no matter where it may be.

General Assembly passed a resolution of monumental
importance to the Palestinian refugees - G.A.
Resolution 194. This year, the 53rd anniversary of
Resolution 194 follows the conclusion of the one-year
anniversary of the al-Aqsa intifada, in which the
Palestinian refugees have made incomparable sacrifices
in asserting their fundamental and inalienable rights
to be free from Israel's illegal occupation and to
return to their homes of origin. These demands are
supported by the entire Palestinian people and
leadership, a fact that is not surprising considering

In ancient times much of this land was forest. The

cleared for agriculture, and cut for timber, firewood,

Crescent" is absurd, because the land is largely
