-Caveat Lector- This may be heavy for survivors.
All accusations are alleged Celluloid Heroes: Part I - David McGowan - 1/20/02 "Black Hawk Down....I assumed that it would be a shameless glorification of a reprehensible, imperialist, oil-driven U.S. military operation that was itself shamelessly glorified as a humanitarian mission to feed the hungry....It is also... a shameless glorification of a convicted child rapist and sodomizer.... it is one of the most obvious pieces of government-sanctioned, pro-war propaganda to come out of Hollywood since .... the 'hero' of Black Hawk Down, Ranger John Grimes, was given a deceptive name-change by the filmmakers following a request from the Pentagon's PR people. It seems the Ranger's real name was John Stebbins – who is currently serving a 30-year-sentence for an attack on a child under the age of 12. Stebbins' ex-wife told the New York Post: "They are going to make millions off this film in which my ex-husband is portrayed as an All-American hero when the truth is he is not." http://davesweb.cnchost.com/wtc12.html Alexander's Gas & Oil Connections http://www.gasandoil.com/goc/news/ntc85031.htm Volume 3, issue #27 - 10-12-1998 Uzbekistan has difficulties finding venues for its gas 22-10-1998 Uzbekistan is looking to jack up natural gas production by 5 % this year to 54 bn cm, but most export avenues remain closed and the failure of Enron's flagship project has sapped foreign investors' confidence....But while the government expresses a strong interest in bringing foreign investment to the energy sector, the results tell a different story: there are currently no private pipelines in Uzbekistan and no plans to privatise gas facilities. Almost all of the $ 845 mm invested last year in the oil and gas sector in 1997 came from the state's coffers. Exports represent only 10 % of production, and this summer Enron quietly withdrew after 2 years of fruitless talks with Gazprom failed to secure a hard currency market for gas it hoped to produce jointly with state-owned Uzbekneftegaz. <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
