[CTRL] (Fwd) Release: Ohio Keg Law

WASHINGTON, DC -- A new law in Ohio that requires a five-day waiting period before buying beer -- yes, you read that correctly -- has Libertarians wondering: How Lowenbrau can politicians go? "This is the worst idea since Billy Beer," said Libertarian Party press secretary George Getz. "We don't want to Harp on this, but beer-lovers everywhere will be sadder, Budweiser, when they hear that politicians in Ohio plan to treat every drinker like a criminal." On Wednesday, August 9, a new Ohio law will require anyone buying five or more kegs of beer to fill out a form with the Ohio Department of Public Safety, and then wait five days before picking up the beer. The law, dubbed "Five in Five," also gives law enforcement the right to search the site of a beer party without first obtaining a search warrant. Several other states -- including Iowa, New Hampshire, Kansas, and Pennsylvania -- have similar laws or are considering similar legislation, according to Fox News. And Maryland requires all kegs of beer to be registered with the state government. Politicians said such laws are necessary because some keg parties have become violent -- but Libertarians said this kind of "Nanny State" regulation just Foster's more disrespect for the law. "Even the most Mooseheaded politician admits these laws will have little effect, since people can just buy four kegs at a time at different locations, or buy beer by the case," said Getz. "The kind of irresponsible people who hold out-of-control parties are the same people who will casually circumvent this law, while law-abiding, responsible people will be inconvenienced. It shouldn't take a Pabst Blue Ribbon panel to figure that out." The Ohio law is especially disturbing because it requires people to give up their Constitutional protections against unreasonable search, he said. "The Fourth Amendment shouldn't be revoked simply because you want to have a wedding party, or a family reunion, or a neighborhood block party that includes kegs of beer," said Getz. "America's Founding Fathers like Sam Adams would never have stood for such a law." Instead of targeting everyone, the police should focus just on those irresponsible drinkers who commit crimes, he said. "If law-abiding adults are enjoying a legal beverage and behaving responsibly, they should not have to worry that police will suddenly show up and demand to search the place," said Getz. "Law- abiding people should not be treated like drunken criminals." Ohio residents should contact their legislators and demand the repeal of this law, he said -- before it foams over to other states. "This is a Busch-league law, and it needs to be repealed," said Getz. "This is a Molsen Golden opportunity for Ohio residents to stand up for liberty." -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBOZHO/tCSe1KnQG7RAQE8bwP/WUBpDI4kevgTHz2WlnHTiDsSp+OhfDuH wj9zCfRH/HzNT+qAPXq+YJJeE1U17DUCvPvYaSzrnZvvM/hVR7sDx31oVYUTxsMu zi9THdTG89GXRY5CSTHIPnj6wsl4tvwYq4u46MNMCEfap1Kv8BksiQme8bSk+jLA hWRrtWqcBzw= =FYV9 -END PGP SIGNATURE- --- The Libertarian Partyhttp://www.lp.org/ 2600 Virginia Ave. NW, Suite 100voice: 202-333-0008 Washington DC 20037 fax: 202-333-0072 --- For subscription changes, please use the WWW form at: http://www.lp.org/action/email.html Alternatively, you may also send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with just the word "subscribe" or "unsubscribe" in the subject line. --- End of forwarded message --- AER Integrity has no need of rules. -Albert Camus (1913-1960) + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + The only real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes. -Marcel Proust The libertarian therefore considers one of his prime educational tasks is to spread the demystification and desanctification
[CTRL] Fwd: The Early Days of the John Birch Society, Part 3
The Early Days of the John Birch Society: Fasist Templars of the Corporate State Part 3 The John Birch Solon "There must be two Americas ..." Mark Twain JB Society leader Thomas Anderson, a hardened advocate of racial segregation, gave the game away when he griped in Straight Talk: "Invariably, hiding behind the sanctimonious cries of 'freedom of the press,' and 'academic freedom' are defenders of Alger Hiss, Fifth Amendment addicts, attackers of the House Committee on Un-American Activities, people who urged barring Mein Kampf from distribution. In short, the enemies are: Criminals, Socialists and Communists" Mein Kampf? Of critical importance to the anti-communist wars of the Birch Society was Welch's relationship with the Dr. J.B. Matthews, the former chief investigator for the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC). When Joseph McCarthy announced that he held a list of Soviet agents "in my hands," he referred to one of Matthew's compilations. When McCarthy fell into disrepute, J.B. decamped, taking his files on known "communist subversives" with him, moved on to become Robert Welch's aide-de-camp. "My opinion of various characters," Welch wrote in his Blue Book of the Birch Society, "formed entirely independently, has [proven] to coincide with the opinion of J.B. Matthews." Welch boasted that he had "a fairly sensitive and accurate nose" for rooting out assets of the communist underground. Dr, Matthews pushed the number of "agents," "subversives" and "travellers" among the nation's clergymen in Birch Society files from 1,000 to 7,000. The country's parishes evidently swarmed with spies and dupes bent on destroying democracy. In July 1961, the Birch Society Bulletin claimed that there were no less than "300,000 to 500,000 Communists in the United States" (Newberry, p. 89). Welch and Matthews dreamed of collecting files of all of them. The American Opinion reading room was the place to learn about the conspiracy, an alternate universe of extreme right-wing briefings. Medford Evans, former editor of the National Review and the Birch Society's Texas coordinator, published a Hitlerian tour-de-force in Human Events magazine (January 26, 1957): "Why I Am an Anti-Intellectual." Evans once served under Admiral Lewis Strauss at the Atomic Energy Commission. The dossiers of J. Robert Oppenheimer and Edward Teller were cleared by the AEC's "anti-intellectual" chief of security (Newberry, p. 138). In its halcyon period, the John Birch Society was allied with William Regnery, whose name appears on American Security Council (ASC) incorporation papers. The ASC was a domestic covert operations arm of the military-industrial complex, closely aligned with the JBS, Libery Lobby and other sons of the anti-communist revolution. Regnery and a pair of pre-war America First isolationists began the Human Events radio program and the Regnery publishing house in the mid-1950s. The first two books published by Regnery were critical of the Nuremberg Trials and the third found fault with allied bombing campaigns against the Nazis. In 1954, Regnery put out a couple of tracts for the John Birch Society. The nascent publishing concern also printed up William F. Buckley¹s God and Man at Yale, subtitled, The Superstitions of Academic Freedom. "In light of the publishing of the pro-Nazi books," SpritOne Information Services comments, "it is interesting to note that Regnery Publishing was subsidized by the CIA, according to Howard Hunt. The reader is reminded to remember [the] point ... concerning the CIA and its involvement with Nazi war criminals. Henry Regnery, along with Bunker Hunt, funded Western Goals." A reminder: Western Goals was a creation of the John Birch Society. In 1986, President Ronald Reagan "appointed Alfred Regnery to help dismantle the Justice Department¹s Office of Juvenile Justice. In the 1990s, [Regnery] has been the publisher of numerous venomous smears (I would use the word 'books' but that would be a lie by any measure) attacking President Clinton. [A] direct linkage between the past pro-Nazi groups of the 1930s and today¹s right wing has been fully established" (http://www.spiritone.com/~gdy52150/1930s.htm). Gary Allen, one of the foremost propagandists in the Bircher pantheon, was the author of None Dare Call It Conspiracy, a "'76 Press" productm, a Birch Society bible and a stunning success that has sold over four million copies, according to a publisher's blurb. Picture, if you will, the nation's corporate elite driving for a "Great Merger" with the Soviet bloc, and poisoning the entire world with Communism. This is among the central themes of The Rockefeller File (1976), Allen's critique of the most powerful family in the world, the dreaded CFR and the United World Federalists. At first glance, Allen's books may seem a confused clot of political fantasies. He claims that the Carnegie and Rockefeller money

[CTRL] Interview: Ritalin Use Forced by Law
Interesting perspective that Dr. Peter Breggin has on Ritalin. Here's a quote that you will find in the interview below: DR. PETER BREGGIN - And what the medication basically does is crush spontaneous behavior. If you give stimulant drugs to animals -- we have hundreds of studies -- the animals stop playing. They stop socializing. They stop interacting. They also stop trying to escape. Basically, we make good cage -- Think the government wants to drug everybody into submission now??? By law? Hannity Colmes Tuesday, August 8, 2000 Fox News Channel SEAN HANNITY - Welcome back to "Hannity Colmes." I'm Sean Hannity. The latest debate over giving children mood-altering drugs like Ritalin has put parents and educators on opposite sides of the law. Kyle Carroll, a seven-year-old in Albany, New York was put on Ritalin after falling behind in his first grade class, but his parents took him off the drug because of the side effects that were happening with the child, including sleeplessness, and administrators at Kyle's school called Protective Services, if you can believe this, alleging child abuse. A family court judge then ruled that the boy's parents must continue medicating him, but they told them they could get a second opinion. Are drugs the answer when kids are acting up in school? And should courts have the right to force parents to put their children on these drugs, and are we overprescribing them? SEAN HANNITY - We're joined by psychiatrist Dr. Peter Breggin, is the author of the book "Reclaiming Our Children, A Healing Plan for a Nation in Crisis." Dr. Henry Paul; he's the author of the upcoming book "Is My Child OK," and he's a consultant for the New York City Administration for Children's Services. SEAN HANNITY - Alright, Mr. Paul, let me turn to you. In this particular case, [the] parents took him off th drug because of side effects of sleeplessness, appetite loss. It was their decision. They're the parents. It's a controversial drug. The use of it has become astronomical in just the last five years alone. Then for them to be -- for the teachers to call Special Services -- Social Services -- and accuse them of child abuse because they don't like that decision, and then a judge to mandate that the drugging of this child is nothing -- nothing short of state-mandated abuse. DR. HENRY PAUL - Well, it's not uncommon that schools will call doctors or foster agencies if it's a foster child and say, "Please put a child on Ritalin," which of course, it sounds absurd, but you have to remember that most of these parents are already involved in the foster system or with a state or local agency already been in some way allegedly neglectful of their child. It is very common. I -- I want to underline this. It's very --. SEAN HANNITY - Well we don't have that in this particular case. We don't know if there's any abuse here -- DR. HENRY PAUL - We don't know this case. SEAN HANNITY - But we do know this. We know that -- DR. PETER BREGGIN - There was nothing like that, Sean, in this case at all. That's -- that's throwing rocks at people he doesn't even know. These parents had no charged against them about anything. SEAN HANNITY - Dr. Breggin, this seems to me like an Orwellian Nightmare, that the state is going to tell you to give your kids drugs, then if you don't give them I assume the fear is that your children might be taken away from you. Is that a stretch -- of the imagination? DR. PETER BREGGIN - No. That's exactly what people are afraid of. It's really interesting what has happened. Our schools have basically become mental hospitals where the teachers diagnose, the psychologists diagnose, and then the nurses give the medication. And what the medication basically does is crush spontaneous behavior. If you give stimulant drugs to animals -- we have hundreds of studies -- the animals stop playing. They stop socializing. They stop interacting. They also stop trying to escape. Basically, we make good cage -- ALAN COLMES - Dr. Breggin, should kids never get Ritalin? Should nobody ever take it? Should no child ever take this drug? DR. PETER BREGGIN - I think it's a basic mistake. It's very much along the lines of severely beating a child. Should that ever be done? Can you get a result from severely beating a child? Well, you can get a result from doing that and you can get a result from giving Ritalin, but the result is subduing the child, not teaching the child self control. ALAN COLMES - Alright Dr. Paul, [he's talking about] never it. That's an extreme position. The National Institutes of Health says a study released last week shows that medication improves the ability of kids with Attention Deficit Disorder and hyperactivity. Is that -- DR. HENRY PAUL - Well, not only that, but let's just for a second, let's

They openly mount propaganda campaigns through public addresses, news releases, books, pamphlets, magazine articles, radio, and television. They also use covert deception and manipulation. Documented tactics of this kind include: False Media Stories: COINTELPRO documents expose frequent collusion between news media personnel and the FBI to publish false and distorted material at the Bureau's behest. The FBI routinely leaked derogatory information to its collaborators in the news media. It also created newspaper and magazine articles and television "documentaries" which the media knowingly or unknowingly carried as their own. Copies were sent anonymously or under bogus letterhead to activists' financial backers, employers, business associates, families, neighbors, church officials, school administrators, landlords, and whomever else might cause them trouble. One FBI media fabrication claimed that Jean Seberg, a white film star active in anti-racist causes, was pregnant by a prominent Black leader. The Bureau leaked the story anonymously to columnist Joyce Haber and also had it passed to her by a "friendly" source in the Los Angeles Times editorial staff. The item appeared without attribution in Haber's nationally syndicated column of May 19, 1970. Seberg's husband has sued the FBI as responsible for her resulting stillbirth, nervous breakdown, and suicide. Bogus Leaflets, Pamphlets, and Other Publications: COINTELPRO documents show that the FBI routinely put out phony leaflets, posters, pamphlets, newspapers, and other publications in the name of movement groups. The purpose was to discredit the groups and turn them against one another. FBI cartoon leaflets were used to divide and disrupt the main national anti-war coalition of the late 1960s. Similar fliers were circulated in 1968 and 1969 in the name of the Black Panthers and the United Slaves (US), a rival Black nationalist group based in Southern California. The phony Panther/US leaflets, together with other covert operations, were credited with subverting a fragile truce between the two groups and igniting an explosion of internecine violence that left four Panthers dead, many more wounded, and a once-flourishing regional Black movement decimated. Another major COINTELPRO operation involved a children's coloring book which the Black Panther Party had rejected as anti-white and gratuitously violent. The FBI revised the coloring book to make it even more offensive. Its field offices then distributed thousands of copies anonymously or under phony organizational letterheads. Many backers of the Party's program of free breakfasts for children withdrew their support after the FBI conned them into believing that the bogus coloring book was being used in the program. Forged Correspondence: Former employees have confirmed that the FBI has the capacity to produce state-of-the-art forgery. This capacity was used under COINTELPRO to create snitch jackets and bogus communications that exacerbated differences among activists and disrupted their work. One such forgery intimidated civil rights worker Muhammed Kenyatta (Donald Jackson), causing him to abandon promising projects in Jackson, Mississippi. Kenyatta had foundation grants to form Black economic cooperatives and open a "Black and Proud School" for dropouts. He was also a student organizer at nearby Tougaloo College. In the winter of 1969, after an extended campaign of FBI and police harassment, Kenyatta received a letter, purportedly from the Tougaloo College Defense Committee, which "directed" that he cease his political activities immediately. If he did not "heed our diplomatic and

Monica Lewinsky. - GOPNV reader Liz Michael, 8/8/00 ** NAACP Prez: Americas Worst Racist Lee Alcorn, until yesterday, was the top dog of the NAACP in Dallas, Texas. Hes now the FORMER president of that black organization because he shot off his big mouth criticizing Joe Liebermans selection to be Al Gores apologist ... er, running mate ... simply because Liebermans Jewish. You know, we cant have a Jew in top office - according to Alcorn - because, as everybody knows, Jews are only interested in money. Isnt it sadly ironic that, as the rest of America moves beyond idiotic racism and prejudice, the black leader of an organization which finds racism in separating the whites from the coloreds at the Laundromat is the biggest bigot in the country today? Lee Alcorn is a jerk. Guess that makes me a racist now, huh? *** Well ... They Did It To Us Again Well they sure sucked-in the spineless GOP this time. Because (Sen. Joe) Lieberman is more religious than 99.9% of those in politics, he is automatically a centrist or a conservative Democrat. In fact, Lieberman is as liberal as they come. Last year, the radical Americans for Democratic Action (ADA) gave the Connecticut Senator a 95% liberal rating. The only negative vote came when Lieberman voted against the Democrats tax cut plan, presumably because he thought it too big. Lieberman talks a good game, makes a nice pious speech, but always votes the wrong way -- impeachment being the most prominent example. And he got a whopping 0% from the American Conservative Union (ACU) -- some conservative Democrat. Of course, Dick Cheney getting a 90% ACU rating makes him a dangerous member of the radical right ... but Lieberman's 95% ADA rating makes him a centrist. This just proves how liberal the media really is. - GOPNV reader Rick Shaftan, 8/8/00 ** A Tax-and-Spend Centrist? While many immediately labeled Sen. Lieberman a moderate, his record indicates otherwise, as he has consistently cast anti-taxpayer votes. Highlights from Sen. Lieberman's voting record include: * Scored a 5 out of 100 in Americans for Tax Reform's Tax Ratings for the First Session of the 106th Congress. * Voted against an amendment that would have offset spending increases with spending decreases. (Roll Call #70, 25 March) * Voted against Medical Savings Accounts. (Roll Call #202, 13 July) * Voted against 10% cuts in marginal tax rates. (Roll Call #230, 29 July) * Voted against reductions in marriage tax and capital gains taxes. (Roll Call #247, 30 July) * Voted against repealing the Death Tax. (Roll Call #230, 29 July) * Voted against IRA expansion. (Roll Call #247, 30 July) * Voted against reducing the fuel tax. (Roll Call #183, 13 July) * Voted against repealing tax on Social Security benefits. (Roll Call #188, 13 July) * Voted against repealing the death tax. (Roll Call #197, 14 July) * Voted against repeal of the marriage penalty. (Roll Call #215, 18 July) "Sadly, Senator Lieberman is not the moderate his allies have made him out to be. His record is clearly anti-taxpayer and pro-big government," said Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform. - Source: Americans for Tax Reform, 8/8/00 ** Traficant Drops BIG Bomb on Reno Ohio Congressman James Traficant accused Attorney General Janet Reno of treason Monday night, saying he has evidence that she was blackmailed not to appoint an independent counsel to investigate the Clinton-Gore administration on Chinagate charges.

[CTRL] NAACP Official Resigns Over Remark on Jews
Thursday, August 10, 2000 | Print this story NAACP Official Resigns Over Remark on Jews By MELISSA HEALY, JEFF LEEDS, Times Staff Writers WASHINGTON--One of the nation's most politically charged rifts surfaced Wednesday as African American leaders scrambled to distance themselves from anti-Semitic comments made earlier this week by a leading black figure in Dallas. Commenting on Vice President Al Gore's choice of Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman as a running mate, Lee Alcorn told a Dallas radio station Monday: "We need to be very suspicious of any kind of partnership between the Jews at that kind of level, because we know that their interest primarily has to do with, you know, with money and these kinds of things." Alcorn, president of the Dallas chapter of the National Assn. for the Advancement of Colored People, added he was "sick of the Democratic Party taking the African American vote for granted." He resigned his job as chapter president Wednesday. Alcorn's comments were quickly repudiated by African American leaders, including NAACP President Kweisi Mfume, who called the Texan's remarks "repulsive, anti-Semitic, anti-NAACP and anti-American." Alcorn's remarks come at a time of relative harmony between Jews and blacks even as hate groups have continued their drumbeat of anti-semitism. Reflecting that harmony, NAACP Board Chairman Julian Bond on Wednesday hailed Lieberman as a champion of civil rights, adding that Alcorn's "hateful, repulsive and ignorant" remarks "have no place in American political life and no place in the NAACP." Visiting the White House on Wednesday, the Rev. Jesse Jackson warned against being misled by a "misguided statement," telling reporters that Alcorn's views are "not a trend." "Vice President Gore made the right decision. It was a decision with some political risk but a moral certainty to put Lieberman on the ticket," Jackson said. And the Republican Party, which is actively courting black voters, also weighed in with denunciations of Alcorn. "When it comes to fighting anti-Semitism, Gov. [George W.] Bush and Secretary [Dick] Cheney stand shoulder to shoulder with all Americans in condemning such foolish utterances," said campaign spokesman Ari Fleischer. 'Frustration With Politics' Cited Apologizing Wednesday if he had offended "members of the Jewish faith or others," Alcorn, in resigning, said that his remarks had been "fueled by frustration with politics" as it relates to blacks. Those who track the relations of American Jews and blacks said Wednesday that a strain of anti-Semitism remains alive among some African American nationalists and intellectuals who view Israel as an outpost of U.S. imperialism and American Jews as its agents. "This is probably the one place in American life where anti-Semitism is still alive to a somewhat significant extent," said Murray Friedman, director of Temple University's Center for American Jewish History and a scholar of relations between American blacks and Jews. Blacks have a long-standing partnership with American Jews. Jewish leaders helped to found the NAACP in 1909, and they played key roles in the civil rights movement. As Bond observed Wednesday, Lieberman was among the foot soldiers of the civil rights movement in the 1960s. As a student at Yale University in the early 1960s, Lieberman joined the Yale chapter of the NAACP. In the summer of 1964, the future Connecticut senator joined a small army of young whites who descended on Mississippi to fight racial segregation there during the period known as "Freedom Summer." But since the late 1960s, some black intellectuals and activists have sought to nudge mainstream African American groups away from that alliance. And tensions have periodically flared. In 1984, Jackson was forced to apologize for calling New York "Hymie-town." In 1991, a group of blacks in Crown Heights, N.Y., rampaged against the Hasidic Jewish community there after a traffic accident claimed the life of a local black child. And in 1994, Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan called Jews "the most organized, rich and powerful people . . . in the world" and accused them of "plotting against us even as we speak." Even before Alcorn's remarks, watchdog groups were monitoring the airwaves and Internet for signs that Lieberman's selection would unleash a wave of anti-Semitism. By Wednesday, many of those monitors reported that hate speech has been present, but sporadic. Since Monday morning, when America Online established a board so subscribers could discuss the Lieberman choice, 28,000 messages have been posted, and the "vast minority" were anti-Semitic, said spokesman Nicholas Graham. Monitors at the Internet service provider have removed hateful postings from the board. Big Issue on Some Radio Shows Talk radio also felt the wave. In Los Angeles, "phones are ringing off the hook," said Bernard

Thanks, Robert Sterling Editor, The Konformist http://www.konformist.com 8/6/00 Jim Cairns ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) THE STORY OF JACQUE * This "story" relates to events and discoveries which happened to me between the years 1994 onto the present day. It involves missing persons, Devil worship, Satanic abuse, child abuse, and satanic murders or human sacrifice. Prior to Aug 1994, I lived in the British governed part of Ireland which is known as Northern Ireland or Ulster. I was self-employed in electrical engineering and owned my own property, modest though it may have been. I knew nothing about devil worship, witches, or any connection that they might have to missing people. My only knowledge of witchcraft or anything devilish would have been the Hammer Horror films of the sixties, ie, Dracula and The Wicker Man. One could say that I existed in a world of naivety and ignorance. I lived in an area of South Antrim, in Northern Ireland which was effectively controlled by the loyalist paramilitary group, the UVF. I was surrounded by people who would have been known to be UVF, but I never got involved with them except to be courteous and I tried to keep a safe distance. I had, however, been getting anonomous phone calls for at least 4 years but I put these down to someone that I knew who had UVF links. There was a strange atmosphere around me during the time I lived in this South Antrim village and I remember telling my local "clergyman" that I felt a MALICE was upon me , even though I knew nothing about witchcraft at this stage! On the 12th Aug 1994, I dropped my ex-wife off from my car at her home in Belfast after being out together on a social occasion. I headed off in my car for my home in south Antrim which was about 13 miles away. I turned off the motorway at Templepatrick, the time was around 11.30pm and onto a dark and unlit road. I drove into a trap set up by a loyalist paramilitary group and I have no doubt that this group was the UVF. The first thing I saw was a white van and inside the van was the face of the man I had seen circling my home on the previous day. His face was unmistakeable with his stocky face and heavy black moustache. I immediately turned back onto the motorway hotly pursued by this van and a white car which was moving much faster than the van. There took place a highspeed chase involving myself and mainly the white car. I sped up the completely unlit motorway and I looked around and the white car was in pursuit, but it must have had a problem because I saw its lights dim for lack of power or the car must have been carrying too many persons. I finally reached the next roundabout at Glengormley and I turned off only to be pursued by the white car which drove straight across the roundabout at extremely high speed and exited out the opposite side. At this roundabout, there were some cars even at this late hour . I reported this incident to the local RUC. I requested a police escort to my home in the village so that I could get certain personal belongings. Afterwards I left the RUC patrol and fled the area. Two days later, I drove across the border into the Irish Republic and drove at least 250 miles to the town of Kilkenny, where a friend of my ex-wife lived. I eventually got a house to rent in Kilkenny, and I am living here today. I will not go into the details of everything and every person involved in this area for obvious reasons but I will name the relevant government depts, politicians, police depts, newspaper groups,and welfare groups which are all part ot this saga.In the weeks and months ahead , incredible revelations unfolded and I discovered that a person once close to me had set me up for the murder/abduction attempt in Aug 1994. BUT MUCH WORSE WAS TO UNFOLD THAN SIMPLY A MURDER ATTEMPT, IN THE WEEKS TO FOLLOW. IT became clear that there were other much more sinister motives for this murder attempt. I went on to discover that the person who was once close to me was involved with the IRA and a SATANIC CULT which was masquerading as a pseudo Christian/ religious sect. I will not accuse all of the IRA of being totally involved with this Satanic cult but I will say that some of their members certainly are. That goes for the UVF as well, because the same cult is known to have and had members who are UVF. This is one thing that the IRA and UVF have in common , membership of this cult; and this is widely known to Irish journalists. After Aug 1994, a cult member

[CTRL] bizarre illness computer viruses
MAN CATCHES COMPUTER VIRUS! Bizarre illness jamming up his brain waves! Caption: SICK COMPUTER passed on a bizarre virus to programmer John Stevens, above, after it became ill from an infected software program. By Michael Todd, Special Correspondent, {Weekly World News}, 18 June 1991 John Stevens has a lot in common with his home computer: Both think logically, both like numbers and both are sick with a virus - the same virus! Stevens, a computer programmer who works out of his home in a Philadelphia suburb, is convinced his lingering and debilitating illness is something he got from his sick computer. And the victim's doctor agrees. "I've run every test I can think of to trace the origin of his illness," said Dr. Mark Fordland. "He has a virus, but it's not like any virus I've ever seen." Stevens, 32, said his computer began to show signs of a virus - a software program designed to eat up an destroy other software data - about a week before he got sick. "I was careless about borrowing software programs from other people I didn't know well," Stevens admits. Dr. Fordland, himself a computer expert, agrees. "Borrowing software programs from friends and strangers is like having sex with someone you don't know well. When you sleep with someone, you sleep with everyone they've ever slept with. When you borrow someone's software program, you're connected to everyone who's ever used that program." Dr. Fordland concludes that Stevens' symptoms are identical to that of a software virus' attack on a computer. "Stevens has become forgetful, like something is eating up his memory, his data. He has less and less energy. He can't hold onto thoughts. Even an EEG (electroencephalogram) of his brain waves keeps changing. It's becoming more and more erratic. "This virus could just eat him up until his mind is a blank and he's like a vegetable," the doctor said. Here's an easy game to play.Here's an easy thing to say If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,and the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,and the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abortthen the socket packet pocket has an error to report! If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash,and the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash,and your data is corrupted cause the index doesn't hash,then your situation's hopeless, and your system's gunna crash. You can't say this? What a shame, sir!We'll find you another game, sir. If the label on the cable on the table at your housesays the network is connected to the button on your mouse,but your packets want to tunnel on another protocol,that's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall,and your screen is all distorted by the side-effects of gauss,so your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse,then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang,cause as sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gunna hang! When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy on the disk,and the microcode instructions cause unnecessary risc,then you have to flash your memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM.quickly turn of your computer and be sure to tell your mom! . PAUL REVERE VIRUS: This revolutionary virus does not horse around. It warns you of impending hard disk attack -- once if by LAN, twice if by C.

FEDERAL BUREAUCRAT VIRUS: Divides your hard disk into hundreds of little units, each of which does practically nothing, but all of which claim to be the most important part of the computer.

ADAM AND EVE VIRUS: Takes a couple of bytes out of your Apple. MICHAEL JACKSON VIRUS: Hard to identify because it is constantly altering its appearance. The virus won't harm your PC, but it will trash your car. CONGRESSIONAL VIRUS: The computer locks up, screen splits erratically with a message appearing on each half blaming the other side for the problem.

from: http://www.aci.net/kalliste/ Click Here: A HREF="http://www.aci.net/kalliste/"The Home Page of J. Orlin Grabbe/A - The End of Privacy Watching Big Brother Watching You The government will protect your privacy. Yeah, right. SOME time ago Elizabeth France got a telephone call at work from a man claiming to be an Inland Revenue inspector. After asking a few anodyne questions about her tax return, he thanked her for her time and asked her to confirm her home address. The Data Protection Commissioner thought little of it until she got another call a few days later from a Sunday newspaper journalist. He read out a list of her most private financial information, including details of her bank account, the outstanding balance on her mortgage and the size of her latest gas bill. It was only then that she realised that the first caller had been a private investigator, acting illegally on behalf of the paper, and that by verifying her address she had given him all he needed to find out the rest. It is, perhaps, not surprising that Mrs France has a shredder by her desk nor that she refuses to enter the names of her children in Who's Who for fear that they will be abducted. "You do tend to become a bit of a hypochondriac doing this job," she says. This sprightly 50-year-old, mother of three is Britain's champion of privacy and civil liberties. While Channel 4 turns the cameras on a group of housemates 24 hours a day, Mrs France is working around the clock to stop Big Brother taking over the country. It appears to be an increasingly difficult job. Like the unwitting star of The Truman Show, our movements are captured in detail by closed circuit television cameras on every street corner, our e-mails read by internet snoopers, our names and addresses sold on lucrative lists from one marketing company to another. If Benji the Binman is not rifling through your rubbish, then Sidney the Supermarket Man will be shuffling through your storecard slips working out how many loaves of bread you buy a week so that he can offer you a discount on a new range of ciabatta. Even Tony Blair has had his private thoughts splashed over the front pages and seen his family photographs revealed against his will to the world. How is the guardian of privacy going to cope? Mrs France thinks the Prime Minister is a special case: "He has to accept that he is a public person," she says sternly. "He is going to be treated differently." But she is adamant that more needs to be done to protect members of the public. Next week, she will launch a television advertising campaign encouraging people to take more care with their private information. In the autumn, she is bringing out a new code of practice for employers. "People are much more aware of their rights now," she says. "They want to protect their privacy." The commissioner was dismayed by the News of the World campaign to expose paedophiles, which was dropped recently. She said: "Somebody's life could be ruined because they were wrongly identified or because they thought they were about to be exposed. Parliament has decided that we should not have a published register of paedophiles." But at the moment the internet is her main concern. Last week, Barclays customers found that their accounts had been accessed by other people and last month Powergen users found their details posted on the website for all to read. It is not surprising consumers have lost confidence in electronic transactions. "It is possible to secure the net but we have to be very cautious," the Data Protection Commissioner says. "The security we have had elsewhere may well not be robust enough. Of course you mustn't have your whole database sitting there 24 hours a day for people to try to get into. But having some fairly big guys make these mistakes will actually help to focus minds on what needs to be done." This will all come to a head next month when the Government goes online. Tony Blair wants everybody to file their tax returns and claim their benefits via the web. He has promised to make all Government services available electronically by 2005. The aim is for every British citizen to have a personal "portal" through which they can deal with the state. But Mrs France is worried. "There are big data protection issues," she says. "I would be hesitant about going too far. We have to be very careful that we don't go too gung-ho on target dates without having thought through all the implications. Having seen what happens when people with money to spend go online, it would be unfortunate if the dates set by Government were met if we weren't ready." One concern is that information obtained by one department will be available to another through a giant computer computer system. "The Government cannot override the barriers and create a big melting pot of information simply because the technology allows it to do so. Citizens would be most concerned about dealing electronically with government if it meant

Tony Butler, Chief Constable of Gloucestershire Constabulary, accused the News of the World - which published pictures of 49 convicted sex offenders yesterday - of "irresponsible journalism". He said: "I have had two lengthy conversations with senior News of the World staff during the past week and on both occasions they have failed to convince me that what they intended to do would benefit children's safety." He voiced fears that the move could drive offenders underground, thus undermining the sex offenders register which had enabled police to monitor convicted paedophiles after their release. Mr Butler, a spokesman on sex offenders for the Association of Chief Police Officers, said: "Anonymity is an essential element of the register and I strongly pointed out the possible pitfalls of publication to the News of the World staff. "I am saddened to see that they have ignored my advice. Their actions will, I believe, put children's lives at risk by driving sexual offenders underground. Past evidence suggests that the publication of such information causes serious breaches of child protection." The paper remained defiant, despite the criticism. A spokesman said: "We talked to many organisations about what we are doing and a vigorous exchange of views took place. Some of them supported us and some of them did not. The important thing is that the vast number of people believe that what we are doing is right and support the campaign." The News of the World said on its front page that its "crusade" had been inspired by the murder of Sarah Payne which, it argued, proved that police monitoring of sex offenders was ineffective. There was some support for its actions from people placing flowers where Sarah's body was found in West Sussex. Sharon Coop, 38, a mother of three from Worthing, said: "It's a brilliant idea because you know these people are there and can warn your children and tell them to beware. Possibly it's not the best thing to name them in a newspaper. In America they have a register you can look at." The Home Office said it should be left to the professional judgement of police officers whether to name individual offenders. Ann Widdecombe, the shadow home secretary, also expressed her unease. She said: "On the whole I don't think it is good news, but what I do understand is the sense of outrage. It raises two problems: firstly, it is better to know where paedophiles are and, secondly, it raises the issue of mistaken identity." The National Association for the Care and Resettlement of Offenders condemned the move as "grossly irresponsible", warning that the fear of vigilante attacks could force offenders into hiding. Paul Cavadino, its policy director, said: "They move elsewhere and change their names, making it difficult or impossible for the police to keep track of them. There is a real danger that the News of the World's action will increase risk to children rather than reduce it." 18 July 2000: Sarah: murder inquiry begins 27 June 2000: Sex offenders may be tracked for life by satellite spy 25 June 2000: Loophole allows paedophiles to escape register 29 April 1998: Hysteria towards paedophiles 'may increase the risk' MI5 'in panic' as Shayler prepares to return home © Copyright of Telegraph Group Limited 2000. - Aloha, He'Ping, Om, Shalom, Salaam.

Re: [CTRL] Poli. Sci. 101
The other side of a republic is that the Law is sovereign and the people are under the law. In traditional america this had strong christian connotations(and euro/ jeffersonian-it is certain that all will be free, but being free that they can not live together ) . Everything not explicitly prohibited was permitted. Weapons were freely availlable. When I saw a rerun of the alamo they had John wayne extolling the virtues of the the republic, democracy. Democracy has the 'people' as sovereign- this was initially restricted to responsible(property owning) citizens. Introduced principally by fundamentalists to limit the power of the aristocrats. Now we have NWO democracy, based on a religion of human rights, equality of outcome, and america being a propositional state, with no loyalty to its peoples, but only on loyalty to its human rights religion. The power has moved to the people who control the mass media(ie who owns CBS, ABC, NBS, CNN ,FOX) and who can mobilise its lobby groups---the law is now a means of social engineering. and weapons restricted. John PS In South Africa White males can vote but have no power and are excluded from most of the centres of power (except for token whites) except business, and the government has introduced legislation so that they are powerless to associate freely even there. Okay, people, let's go back to freshman political science class and review some definitions. The United States is a democratic republic. The term "republic" means ONLY a country which is not a monarchy. The term "democracy" means ONLY government by the people--the word does not prescribe how that government is organized. Specifically, the government of the United States is described as "representative democracy," which means ONLY that the citizens of the country, as individuals or in combination, choose representatives to run the country for them. The government of the United States is also a "constitutional republic," which means that the role filled in a monarchy by the king or queen is instead filled by the codified body of law which controls the organization and functioning of the government. These terms have changed in their meanings since the United States was founded. Many of the Founders, especially Hamilton and the Federalists, were true elitists, who did not trust the "mobile faction" or "mob"--what Marxists call the *Lumpenproletariat*. Modern American political theory is far closer to the views of Thomas Jefferson and even more Andrew Jackson than to those of Washington, Adams, and Hamilton. If you limit your understanding of the original Constitutional debate to *The Federalist Papers*, you're only getting one part of the story--an important and eloquent part, but only a part. The argument that this country is a republic, "not a democracy," is a disingenuous statement which belies a desire to destroy the freedom of all those who are not white, Christian, and male. The truly revolutionary thing about the Constitution is that it institutionalizes revolution, making it possible to completely change the system of government without *overthrowing* that government. The United States has quite regularly changed its political philosophy, roughly every generation or every other generation. The last such change was the so-called "Reagan Revolution" (more correctly the "Reagan-Bush reaction") of the 1980's; the country appears poised for another paradigm shift today. Unfortunately, the nature of a paradigm shift is that it can never be fully recognized until nearly complete, which means that we won't know the nature of the new system until it has come about. I suspect that it will be populist, but the choice seems to be between Left and Right populism, with the Left beginning to coalesce around the Greens and the Right edging toward a crypto-fascist nationalism (if that's not a tautology) focused on Buchanan.

[CTRL] Gore tendency to totalism
"Gore Doesn't Seem to Trust People to Handle the Truth" by John R. Lott, Senior Research Scholar, Yale Law School from the Hartford Courant Vice President Gore is battling with Green Party candidate Ralph Nader for the hard-core environmentalist vote for president. In response to environmentalists' claims that Gore is taking their votes for granted, Gore's campaign points to Gore's recently re-released book, "Earth in the Balance," as evidence of what his administration would do. Indeed, if the book is a good indicator, the extremes to which it goes in supporting the environmentalist cause should give even the most radical environmentalists comfort. The book paints a grim future of overpopulation, mass starvation and death from disease and pollution, and suggests that only drastic changes in our lifestyles can prevent such a global nightmare. The American automobile is, for example, "more deadly than that of any military enemy we are ever again likely to confront." Gore expresses such great fear that he even proposes dispensing with the usual goal of an impartial press: The media should not give "equal weight" to both sides in environmental debates such as global warming, for "it undermines the effort to build a solid base of public support for difficult actions we must soon take." Self-censorship is also justified because "98 percent of the scientists" share his view that man-made pollution is responsible for global warming. His 98 percent figure, of course, represents just one of the book's many exaggerations. At the time that he wrote the book, a Gallup poll revealed that only 18 percent of climate experts thought identifiable man-caused warming had occurred (whereas 49 percent held the opposite view and 33 percent did not know). Opinions today are similar. Gore advocates self-censorship on yet another ground: People are addicted to consumption and will desperately grasp at false hopes to maintain their addiction. The trouble supposedly started when God's importance in peoples' lives diminished due to the start of the "scientific era." In Gore's own words: "But with God receding from the natural world to an abstract place, the patriarchal figure in the family (almost always the father) effectively became God's viceroy, entitled to exercise godlike authority when enforcing the family's rules. As some fathers inevitably began to insist on being the sole source of authority, their children became confused about their own roles in a family system that was severely stressed by the demands of the dominant, all-powerful father. . . . "One of the ways dysfunctional families enforce adherence to rules and foster the psychic numbness on which they depend is by teaching the separation between mind and body and suppressing the feelings and emotions that might otherwise undermine the rules." How exactly fathers create this separation between their children's minds and bodies is never explained, but the resulting cleavage supposedly produces an emptiness that is alleviated only through consumption. This "mental illness," as Gore labels it, has created for people the illusion that they want "the food on the supermarket shelves, the water in the faucets in our homes, the shelter and sustenance, the clothing and purposeful work, our entertainment." He writes of "a false world of plastic flowers and Astroturf, air conditioning and fluorescent lights . . . frozen food for the microwave oven." But even more worrisome is Gore's perspective of those who hold opposing views. After classifying "denial" as a serious mental illness, Gore charges that those who criticize environmental programs are themselves suffering from "a well-established form of denial." Those who oppose him are not just wrong, but sick. Largely because of people's inability to make the right decisions, Gore wants centralized government regulations to solve environmental problems. Take his example of California's water shortages during 1987-92. While ignoring the oft-noted claim that extremely subsidized prices reduce farmers' incentives to carefully economize on water, Gore blames the shortage on farmers watering their crops so much that they stunt plant growth. Gore's remedy is detailed watering regulations to keep apparently misguided farmers from harming their crops while simultaneously freeing up water for others. As with essentially all environmental problems, Gore sees the proper regulations as painlessly making everyone better off. Possibly Gore's view of most people not being able to handle the truth justifies his book presenting exaggerated claims and distorted evidence. After all, he is only following the advice that he has already given the media: Make things look as bad as possible. Yet there is a nagging fear of what he might do if elected president. What other policy issues are so compelling as to justify withholding evidence from voters? When else will he discourage a free debate in the press

[CTRL] [Armageddon-or-NewAge] CONCORDE CRASH - THE UFO CONNECTION?
Concorde Crash: The UFO Connection http://www.caus.org/mu080700.htm UFO ROUNDUP; Volume 5, Number 31; August 3, 2000; Editor: Joseph Trainor On Tuesday, July 25, 2000, at 4 p.m., the Concorde, a sleek supersonic passenger jetliner, fueled up at Charles de Gaulle International Airport north of Paris, preparing for its flight to New York City. At 4:42 p.m., the tower cleared the Concorde, now Air France Flight 4590, for takeoff. The Concorde began rolling down the runway. But as the jetliner started its climb, a long trailing plume of fire poured out of the Number 2 engine. The crew apparently tried to bank to the right upon completing their climbout, and the Concorde began losing altitude. At 4:44 p.m., the jet crashed three kilometers (two miles) east of the airport, killing all 109 passengers on board. Four people on the ground were also killed when the crashing Concorde "obliterated the Hotelissimo, a three-story hotel," located at the intersection of les Autoroutes N17 and D902 in Gonesse, a town of 25,000 10 kilometers (6 miles) north of Paris. Investigators combed the wheat fields near the Hotelissimo for Concorde wreckage. One of the two cockpit data recorders was found shortly after the crash. "Investigators had known that the Concorde pilot reported problems with the No. 2 engine, the innermost engine on the left, but the flight data recorder shows that the No. 1 engine adjoining it also lost power. The engine somehow regained thrust but lost power again after being airborne for 'a bit less than a minute,'" the French Accident Investigation Bureau reported. "Shortly after reporting problems with the No. 2 engine, the crew said that the landing gear would not retract." "'The flames seen after takeoff did not come from the engine but in all likelihood from from a major fuel leak,' the Accident and Inquiry Office, part of France's transportation ministry said in a statement Sunday," July 30, 2000, "'One of the pieces found on the runway seems to come from a fuel tank,' the statement said." (Editor's Comment: A burst or ruptured tank would halt the flow of fuel to the No. 1 and No. 2 engines. But how would that cause the electrical systems failure that affected the Concorde's landing gear?) The crash took a strange twist, however, when it was revealed that the Concorde had been leased by Dellmann, the German tour company. Of the 109 people aboard, 96 were German tourists, and 13 of these came from Munchengladbach (population 260,000)m a mid-sized industrail city located 10 kilometers (6 miles) west of Dusseldorf and 320 kilometers (200 miles) southwest of Berlin. Munchengladbach was in the news six weeks ago when a UFO reportedly landed on the outskirts of the city. Over 50 German policemen hunted for the landed saucer, and some residents supposedly made contact with the saucer's occupants, which were described as "green humanoid males" on an "odyssey through the universe." (For more details, see UFO Roundup, volume 5, number 24, "German police hunt for landed UFO," page 3.) Among the crash victims from Munchengladbach were "private business school director Kurt Kahle, 51, who perished with his wife and 8-year-old son, leaving behind a daughter... Werner Tellman, head of a chain of furniture stores, and Harald Ruch, founder of a company that provides glass cleaning and security services to area businesses. Both died with their wives on the Concorde." On Thursday, July 27, 2000, a mysterious bomb explosion occurred at a commuter rail station in Dusseldorf used by Munchengladbach residents. ""An explosion rocked a Dusseldorf commuter train station, injuring nine people and sending bleeding commuters rushing from the station in panic. Two of the injured were in critical conditions, fire officials said." "Police said the blast was likely caused by a fragmentation grenade or a homemade bomb. Authorities did not believe did not believe the attack was politically motivated." (See USA Today for July 26, 2000, "Shock and grief unite Germany and France," page 3A; July 28, 2000, "Concorde was aflame during liftoff," page 13A; July 27, 2000, "In Germany, 'an entire city is in mourning' after disaster," page 6A and July 31, 2000, "Major fuel leak likely sparked flames on Concorde," page 7A.) (Editor's Comment: Suddenly it's very dangerous to be from Munchengladbach. You know, this isn't the first time a UFO incident has had a cockeyed link to a major tragedy in the news. Last year, UFOs were seen repeatedly in Rosamund, California. Then, three months later, former Aryan Nations member and longtime Rosamund resident Buford O. Furrow Jr. popped up in Los Angeles with guns blazing.

[CTRL] Fwd: Vancouver cops seize pot-kids
X-Mailer: Unknown Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Vancouver cops seize pot-kids Over 40 Vietnamese children taken from their pot-growing parents. from CC26 by Denny Launders 26 Jun, 2000 On May 1, 2000, Nga Trinh proudly gave birth to her third child in Vancouver, British Columbia. On May 2, the BC Ministry of Children and Families came into the hospital and took Nga Trinh's one-day-old baby from her arms and told her that the child would be raised in a foster home. Trinh had been arrested three years earlier on marijuana charges, and the judge had stayed the proceedings on May 12, 1998, meaning that she was never convicted. The court registry confirms that Trinh has had no convictions since that time, not even a misdemeanor. Still, the Ministry came for her newborn child. Three years ago, Trinh was living in Vancouver, with the father of her two children, one 4 years and the other 6 months old. On August 8, 1997, police raided her home on a tip that there was a grow operation on the premises. The government took her children and has kept them for over three years. Trinh's case is only a small part a widespread tragedy of families destroyed by the Vancouver police's vendetta against the Vietnamese community. Between January and March 2000, 42 children have been seized during marijuana grow raids, and all but four are Vietnamese. According to the Criminal Intelligence Service of Canada, about 80% of the total effort spent by Vancouver police on investigating indoor marijuana operations focuses on Vietnamese growers. "We have seen more and more evidence of almost complete domination of the cultivation business by Vietnamese," Vancouver Police Spokes- person Anne Drennan told the Vancouver Sun last March. In the same article, Drennan went on to speculate that perhaps the Vietnamese were being controlled by motorcycle gangs. This is a transparent attempt to scare white, middle-class, Vancouverites out of their world-famous marijuana-tolerant attitudes. Drennan is trying to tap into an anti-asian sentiment that has run in Vancouver's veins since the birth of the city. Translating terror When I spoke to Nga Trinh it was with the aid of an interpreter, Stella Davis, a notary public who volunteers with the Vietnamese Women's Society (VWS). During our initial phone conversation, Stella sounded alternately shaken, saddened, and outraged speaking with the bashfulness of someone who has kept a dirty secret far too long. "I was a translator at a seminar that the VMS organized a month ago, on child apprehension procedures. A lot of families came out," recalled Davis. "There were people from the Ministry [of Children and Families] that came to talk to us. There were parents that were upset at the ministry there, too. The ministry has to do an investigation. They have to talk to different people. But instead they just walk in and take the children when there are allegations. "When the children are taken away and put in a foster home, then it is up to a court to decide whether to return the children or keep them longer. But the usual procedure with Vietnamese families is to delay the case and they postpone it for 3 months, 6 months, a year. The whole family is destroyed. And when they are returned as teenagers, they have lived in a group home for years, where they don't have to obey any rules, and they don't fit in to the family anymore, and then they often move out." Davis told me that many Vietnamese families are now having problems renting homes from landlords who suspect them of being marijuana growers, that the Vietnamese community is angry about the media's portrayal of them as illegal immigrants using grow operations to finance their stay in Canada, and that even Vietnamese marijuana growers deny gang involvement. She mentioned Nga Trinh's case as a poignant example of the drug war used for racial oppression in Vancouver, and agreed to translate an interview from the Vancouver Women's Hospital, during which Trinh related the debasements she has suffered since her children were snatched by the government. Trinh's Vietnamese chatted in the background while Stella Davis translated to me over the phone. "She sees them twice a week," said Davis. "They live in a foster home. At first her eldest daughter asked to come home, but over the years she noticed that the child is no longer carefree, no longer an innocent child, always frightened and not comfortable with herself. The people who look after her threaten her if she asks to go home. There is always an interpreter, from the Ministry of Children and Families, there to interpret every single thing that happens between the mother and daughter. She is forbidden to ask any questions pertaining to the daily activities of the child, if she is happy or if she needs anything. There is no freedom of communication between the two." Davis also told me that the
[CTRL] NEWS: USA: The USA's hour of shame
In a message dated 00-08-10 12:48:17 EDT, you write: * News Release Issued by the International Secretariat of Amnesty International * 10 August 2000 AI Index AMR 51/127/2000 News Service Nr. 154 The USA's hour of shame The US death penalty continues to be one of the world's human rights scandals, Amnesty International said today condemning the two executions carried out in Texas yesterday. "Texas is at the heart of that scandal," the organization continued, pointing to the fact that Texas now accounts for 28 of the 58 executions carried out in the USA this year, and 227 of the 656 since the USA resumed judicial killing in 1977. Brian Roberson and Oliver Cruz were killed by lethal injection within an hour of each other despite serious concerns relating to racial discrimination and mental impairment, two issues that mark many capital cases in the USA. "US contempt for international standards of justice and decency has once again been on display for the world to see," Amnesty International said. The organization also refutes Governor George W. Bush's reported contention that Texas does not execute the mentally retarded, citing the examples of Terry Washington and Charles Boyd -- put to death in 1997 and 1999 -- two of the 140 men and women executed since Governor Bush took office in January 1995. "The flawed nature of Texas justice was further exposed in the cases of Washington and Boyd as the juries that sentenced them to death were never told of the two men's mental impairment," Amnesty International said. Governor Bush did not support a bill to ban the execution of the mentally retarded which failed to pass the Texas legislature in 1999. He also vetoed a bill in 1999 which sought to raise the standard of legal representation for low-income defendants. Background Brian Roberson, black, was sentenced to death for the 1986 killing of an elderly white couple in Dallas County. The prosecutor at his trial systematically removed African Americans from the jury pool, indicating that they were not educated enough to sit on a jury. The prosecutor had been trained at a time when such training in Dallas County routinely used a manual encouraging new prosecutors to remove "minority races", "Jews", and people with "physical afflictions" during jury selection because they "almost always empathize with the defendant". A 1986 study found that in the 15 capital murder cases tried in the county between 1980 and 1986, 91 per cent of African American jurors were removed. At the trial of Oliver Cruz, a Latino accused of the rape and murder of Kelly Donovan, white, the prosecutor argued for execution on the grounds that Cruz's learning disability made him more of a threat to society. International standards oppose the death penalty for the mentally impaired. In yet another blatant example of the lottery of US capital justice, Cruz's white co-defendant, charged with the same murder, received a prison term in exchange for testimony against Cruz. Studies have repeatedly shown that the US capital justice system places a higher value on white life. Over 80 per cent of the more than 650 people executed in the USA since 1977 were convicted of crimes involving white victims.

[CTRL] Canada: Legalizing marijuana reflects today's reality
Date: Wed, 09 Aug 2000 10:09:10 -0700 From: "D. Paul Stanford" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Canada: Legalizing marijuana reflects today's reality Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Newshawk: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Source: Vancouver Sun (CN BC) Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Pubdate: Wed, 09 Aug 2000 Legalizing marijuana reflects today's reality Prohibition is not working and decriminalizing the drug will bring new problems. There will be adjustment pains, but allowing its manufacture and use will bring major pluses. Vancouver Sun In 1995, the Canadian Centre for Substance Abuse researched illicit drugs and reported: "The current law prohibiting cannabis possession appears to have had a very limited deterrent effect." So it's fair to ask, if prohibition hasn't reduced the use of marijuana, what has it done? In that year alone, 63,851 Canadians were prosecuted for drug offences, two-thirds of them marijuana charges. About half were for simple possession -- somebody had a little bit for personal use. Yet the government's cost of pursuing these mostly trivial cases was, figured conservatively, more than $200 million. The number of marijuana charges is still rising despite reluctance in many police jurisdictions to do more than confiscate small amounts, and our laws have made criminals of hundreds of thousands of Canadians. It has created an underground criminal industry to supply what even our courts describe as a benign, nearly harmless intoxicant that has well-documented medicinal properties. There are two options for amending marijuana law -- decriminalization of simple possession, or outright legalization. The first is the popular choice among Canadians and one the federal LeDain Commission proposed more than a quarter-century ago. It would remove the penalties for having marijuana but create an institutionalized oxymoron -- legal to buy, illegal to sell. Anyone familiar with our prostitution laws -- under which selling sexual acts and paying for them are legal, but both parties can nevertheless be arrested -- would advise against more of the same. So the status quo does not work. Decriminalization will not work. The unavoidable answer is to legalize marijuana. It's naive to imagine this can be done without difficulty. But hardly any of the problems will be new -- they exist now, although under the table. How will we determine a safe level of blood-THC for driving? How do we regulate its growing and manufacture? (And how does a government seemingly determined to kill the tobacco industry give approval to another smokable plant product?) Who will sell it? Where? To whom? And, in the world of realpolitik, what will the neighbours -- the United States -- say if we legalize a drug they are committed to eradicating? These problems are real and difficult, but legalization has a couple of big pluses. First, the potential tax revenue would more than pay for the administration of legal marijuana (with much left over). And, most importantly, legalizing marijuana would remove the criminal element from its production and distribution, by regulating the industry along the same lines as most other adult vices. Ontario Justice Marc Rosenberg, in a judgment that struck down the simple possession law last month, said: "This is a matter for Parliament." He's right, and the clock is ticking. -- _ EcoNews Service - Alternative News: Ecology, Consciousness Universe Politics mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] USA http://www.earthradioTV.com/index2.html CZECH http://mujweb.cz/www/ecologynews/ UK http://members.tripod.co.uk/ecologynews/ Canada http://www.ecologynews.com/index2.html A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Distrust simmers as police, activists brace for convention
http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/220/nation/Distrust_simmers_as_police_activists_brace_for_convention+.shtml Distrust simmers as police, activists brace for convention By Lynda Gorov, Globe Staff, 8/7/2000 OS ANGELES - Post-Philadelphia, pre-Los Angeles, the paranoia is already apparent. One protest organizer refuses to disclose his Los Angeles location over the telephone, fearful that the call is being monitored. A local police official declines to discuss specific security arrangements, unwilling to tip his department's hand. Protest leaders contend that undercover officers have infiltrated the building that houses their headquarters. Police in riot gear turn out on Thursday to quell a loud but otherwise peaceful union march. Each side calls the other capable of lies, deception, and dirty tricks. ''We've had this incredible amount of surveillance and harassment,'' said Lisa Fithian, an organizer of the coming demonstrations, which she stressed are intended to be nonviolent. ''They've videotaped our building, the fire inspector showed up suddenly, there are cop cars parked outside. It's outrageous.'' Countered Lieutenant Horace Frank, a spokesman for the Los Angeles Police Department: ''We're not doing any surveillance. Our job is to be aware of what's going on in the community. But that's the kind of rhetoric they're stirring up in the hope we will not do police work.'' With the Democratic National Convention less than a week away, both protesters and police are, as the saying goes, hoping for the best while preparing for the worst. They are also looking to Philadelphia's experience for hints of what could happen here. But the lessons being learned are mixed. For their part, Los Angeles police generally applaud the restraint showed by their East Coast counterparts: no tear gas, pepper spray, or rubber bullets fired into the crowds, even when a few of the mostly peaceful protests turned violent. Police Commander Mark Leap promised a similar response in Los Angeles, insisting that force would be used only as a last resort. Demonstrators, however, say they came away from the Republican National Convention more worried than ever that their First Amendment rights to gather in public are at risk. In Philadephia, they charge, police carried out a preemptive operation to collar demonstration leaders, with bail for one set at $1 million although he was charged only with misdemeanors. In another instance, police with a now-sealed search warrant raided a puppet-making factory, saying they would find evidence of plans to disrupt the city and arresting about 70 people. ''There is more than one way to prevent people from exercising their First Amendment rights, and it doesn't always come at the end of a baton,'' said James Lafferty, executive director of the Los Angeles chapter of the National Lawyers Guild, which will have some 200 legal observers on the street and will represent arrested demonstrators free of charge. ''People are chilled. My god, even puppets are not safe. It's very alarming.'' The LAPD, like other police departments nationwide, does have an arsenal of weapons to stop any outbreak of violence during the daily demonstrations, including a recently demonstrated chemical that causes a person to smell so awful that others cannot come near. But with its already besmirched reputation on the line after the Rodney King beating, the 1991 riots, and an ongoing corruption scandal that is the widest in memory, police officials understand that their performance will be scrutinized closely. In the wake of the scandal, in which officers in the Rampart district are accused of beating suspects, planting evidence, and lying in court to win convictions of gang members, the federal government is in talks with the city over how to improve the tracking of problem officers. So far, one police officer from the district has been fired as a result of the scandal, with other dismissals expected. Some 70 officers are under investigation, and there are indications that the corruption spread into other districts. ''I'm not going to play dumb; there have been incidents that tarnished our image,'' Frank said. ''We have to live through it and go beyond it. ... In all honesty, this convention is very important for us. It's a chance to showcase the city of Los Angeles and for the LAPD to shine. We're going to do that.'' The circumstances confronting both police and protesters in Los Angeles, however, are far different from those faced in Philadelphia, although police there were also under pressure to keep their weapons holstered following last month's televised beating of a car chase suspect. For starters, the Republican convention was held in a sports arena on the outskirts of the city, and protesters gathered there in large numbers just once. In Los Angeles, delegates will convene downtown, creating the possiblity of intentional traffic tie-ups and

The essence of the reserve power is captured in Abraham Lincoln's remark on the folly of saving the Constitution but losing the Union. So there is no doubt in my mind that *at some point* of civil unrest it would be found constitutional to use military force to quell it, with or without a request from a State government. Where that point is would be the interesting question, I recall there is US case-law on the subject which the Australian High Court would no doubt consider. And if it is worthwhile for the government to bring in such a bill as is described below; no doubt it is worth our while to oppose it! the "GST" (Goods and Servives Tax) referred to below is a widely unpopular federal consumption tax recently introduced in Australia. -j Original Message Follows From: "Damien Lawson" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: "Benjamin Doherty-Rosenzweig" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [melb2000] Australian Military New Powers to supress dissent Date: Fri, 4 Aug 2000 21:33:59 +1000 EMERGENCY ACTION ALERT TROOPS IN THE STREETS? AUSTRALIAN MILITARY TO GET SWEEPING NEW POWERS With no media attention or public discussion the Howard Government is using the Olympics to justify sweeping new powers allowing the military to suppress domestic unrest in Australia. The Defence Legislation Amendment (Aid to the Civilian Authorities) Bill seeks to establish the legal and political basis for using troops to suppress political disturbances, seriously undermining the centuries-old principle that the armed forces should not be mobilised against the civilian population. The Bill was passed through the House of Representatives in one day (June 28) virtually unnoticed with the country in the grip of GST mania, and is due to be voted on in the Senate by the end of August in time for the Olympic Games. Under the pretext of ensuring public safety during the Olympics, the government and the Labor Opposition have combined to rush through the legislation which will permanently and fundamentally change the military's role. The Bill authorises the Prime Minister, the Defence Minister and the Attorney-General to advise the Governor-General (the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces under the Constitution) to call out military personnel to deal with "domestic violence" that is considered a threat to the nation or one of Australia's states or territories. The words "domestic violence" do not refer to violence against family members or in the home. It is a vague and undefined expression derived from s.119 of the Constitution, which was intended to cover civilian disorder that the state police forces prove incapable of putting down. Today, the term "domestic violence" is widely interpreted to mean more than just "terrorism" and can include strikes, political demonstrations or riots. Already the term "terrorism" has been used by police and security forces to encompass protests such as those planned for the World Economic Forum in Melbourne in September. It is possible that "domestic violence" will be interpreted to include protests at the Olympics or the WEF. Section 119 of the Consititution provides that the federal government shall protect each state against domestic violence, but only on the application of the state's government. Section 51A of the Bill goes well beyond the existing s. 51 of the Defence Act 1903 (Cth), which is based on s. 119 of the Constitution. The new section will allow a military callout where the three ministers are satisfied that domestic violence is occurring "or is likely to occur" that will affect "Commonwealth interests" (also undefined), regardless of whether there is a request by any state or territory government. Section 51B retains an existing proviso in s. 51 that a state government cannot request reserve forces for use in an intervention to deal with an industrial dispute, but no such restriction applies to the use of the armed forces to protect Commonwealth interests. Nor is there a restriction on the use of the permanent military when requested by a State. Section 51G will prevent military personnel being utilised to "stop or restrict any lawful protest or
[CTRL] Plans surround Democrat gathering
http://news.excite.com/news/uw/000807/university-57 Plans surround Democrat gathering Updated 12:00 PM ET August 7, 2000 By Linh Tat Daily Bruin U. California-Los Angeles (U-WIRE) LOS ANGELES -- Los Angeles, a city known for its hustle and bustle lifestyle, is now busier than ever. With the Democratic National Convention a week away, law enforcement officers, UCLA student groups and hospital staff are gearing up for their roles in the upcoming week's events. The Los Angeles Police Department and other law enforcement agencies have plans to deal with expected demonstrations, some of which student groups will attend. Meanwhile, hospital staff members plan to volunteer their services to protesters who get injured on the street. "(Protesters are) going to flat-out cause confusion and chaos, but make no mistake about it - they are not confused," said Lt. Tom McDonald of the West LAPD, at a meeting of Westwood Village merchants Aug. 4. Protests are scheduled so each day of the DNC will focus on one theme. On Aug. 14, demonstrators will demand "Human Need, not Corporate Greed." According to McDonald, demonstrators will gather in Century City and Westwood, where they believe most of the economic power lies. Joining the protests will be 10 to 15 graduate students from UCLA's Environmental Coalition. According to Nikki Pyles, a staff member of the coalition, the group will hold a street theater in Santa Monica Aug. 13 and will be downtown during the week to protest the WTO and demand corporate accountability. Other student groups attending the week's organized events include MEChA and the African Student Union. Karren Lane, chair of ASU, said members are dissatisfied that some Democrats support measures that negatively affect the African American community. For example, Lane said propositions 209 and 21, which banned the use of affirmative action in hiring and admissions policies and allows juveniles to be tried as an adults, affect many African Americans. "We want to be out there as a visible reminder to politicians there are African Americans who do have a political voice, and they are accountable to that voice," Lane said. She said though most African Americans are democrats, some party members still fail to look at the poor conditions in schools comprised predominantly of minorities. A protest against police brutality is scheduled at Westwood's Federal Building Aug. 16. No official protest zones are in place in or around Westwood, McDonald said, though places like Occidental Petroleum, Bank of America, Gap, and Starbucks are expected to be the sites of several demonstrations in the Village. Unlike last year's World Trade Organization protests in Seattle, national labor unions have said they will not demonstrate during the DNC since they support presidential candidate Al Gore. Local unions, on the other hand, are planning protests. McDonald would not disclose the LAPD's operations plan, but he said police will not come out in riot gear. In addition to demonstrators, the LAPD must watch out for possible looting by street gangs. Using the Los Angeles Lakers' championship as an example, McDonald said, "Individuals may take this not as a time to celebrate or demonstrate but as an opportunity (to loot), and we have to be aware of that." While thousands are expected to be demonstrating outside the Staples Center, others will work to help make the DNC run smoothly. Melanie Ho, president of Bruin Democrats, said an estimated 50 student volunteers from the organization will drive officials and other dignitaries around town and greet them at their hotels during the DNC week. Others may even work inside Staples Center. "A good number of students will have choice volunteer positions during the convention because they have been volunteering throughout the summer," Ho said. In addition, Bruin Democrats will assist the California Young Democrats with its conventions and youth caucus. "Students our age are definitely qualified to make decisions and to become politically active, but we need to read and keep ourselves informed," Ho said. Besides nominating a presidential candidate, Democrats will decide the party's platform during the convention. Ho said she would like to focus on issues of poverty, the increasing income gap, and campaign finance reform. "We as Americans and the Democratic party need to look at the way campaigns are run and ensure that everyone can participate despite their background or affluence," Ho said. Meanwhile, a team of doctors at UCLA Medical Center, which does not expect an influx of patients seeking treatment for injuries resulting from riots, will volunteer outside the hospital, said Dr. Marshall Morgan, director of the Emergency Medical Center at UCLA. "There's a volunteer effort to create a kind of ad hoc, unofficial mechanism for taking care of potential injuries that occur on the street," Morgan said. "They have a feeling
[CTRL] Mass. passes strong genetic privacy law
http://www.dotplanet.com/news/article.asp?aid=687429 Mass. passes strong genetic privacy law Thursday, August 03, 2000 2:32:06 PM -- BOSTON, Aug. 3 (UPI) - The Massachusetts Senate Thursday completed legislative action on what is considered among the strongest genetic privacy laws in the nation. While not giving privacy advocates all they wanted, the measure establishes strict prohibitions against genetic discrimination in banking, housing, health insurance and employment. It also gives patients almost total control over who can view their genetic test results. The measure requires written consent from a patient before anyone other than attending physicians can view the test results. Life insurance companies had argued against the bill, saying it would deprive them of an important tool to calculate the risk of covering people. Lawmakers addressed such concerns by not giving people permission to block life insurers from accessing genetic test results. Instead, a commission would be set up to study the issue for two years. Genetic tests may one day be able to predict a person's susceptibility to certain diseases and personality disorders, and are already able to identify people at risk of getting certain cancers and some other illnesses. The Boston Globe said privacy advocates are concerned the increasing use of such tests could result in discrimination against people viewed as costly medical risks, potentially disruptive or otherwise undesirable. The legislation, the result of a five-year effort by a broad coalition of groups, was approved earlier this week by the state House and by the Senate Thursday afternoon. It was not immediately clear whether Gov. Paul Cellucci would sign it, but several agencies in his administration have been pushing for its passage. Senate Majority Leader Linda J. Melconian, D-Springfield, said lawmakers were spurred to action on the bill by the announcement in July that much of the human genetic code had been mapped. "It became pretty clear this was serious business, that it was 21st-century technology that needed consumer protections," she said. She said the measure "sets the prototype for the rest of the nation" to ban genetic discrimination. -- Copyright 2000 by United Press International.

[CTRL] University will examine Carnivore\'s teeth
http://www.dotplanet.com/news/article.asp?aid=703146 University will examine Carnivore's teeth Thursday, August 10, 2000 12:04:39 PM -- By MICHAEL KIRKLAND WASHINGTON, Aug. 10 (UPI) -- The Justice Department is moving swiftly to get an independent evaluation of the FBI's Carnivore e-mail intercept system, even as the system is denounced by congressional Republicans and civil libertarians as a threat to privacy on the Internet. The FBI points out that Carnivore cannot easily be abused because of the limitations of its source code, and it can only be used after a rigorous internal review and a court order - like any wiretap. But criticism continues, fairly or unfairly, as the bureau refuses to let outside critics have a look at the system's coding. The FBI says part of the Carnivore system comes from an unnamed private vendor, who doesn't want trade secrets revealed to competitors. Assistant Attorney General Steve Colgate heads the Justice Department's management division and will play a key role in deciding Carnivore's future. Colgate said Thursday that three U.S. universities have been contacted and at least six more will be approached over the next 10 days in an effort to find one institution to conduct the independent evaluation. "We have been very pleased with the response from the (university) community," Colgate said. Some institutions have even offered to do the evaluation for free, he added. After signing a non-disclosure agreement, university computer scientists will be given "full access to all aspects of Carnivore," Colgate said, including its source code. At her weekly news conference in the Justice Department, Attorney General Janet Reno said she is looking for a university "with expertise in the area" of computer security to conduct the evaluation. She will choose an institution "after consulting with the privacy and law enforcement communities," Reno said. As for timing, she added, "I hope we can do it quickly." Colgate said later that he expects Reno to choose an institution within two weeks. After its evaluation, the university will report to a Justice Department review board, which he will chair, Colgate said. The board will include a number of Justice Department officials, with FBI Laboratory Director Donald Kerr representing the bureau. After the university completes its evaluation and sends it to the review board, Colgate said, the report will be made available immediately for a period of public comment. Then the board will include those comments, along with the university's evaluation, in a final report to the attorney general. "My hope is that we will have this whole process wrapped up by Dec. 1," Colgate said, predicting that the final report should be on Reno's desk by that date -- a schedule considered "lightning speed" by government standards. So named because it looks for the "meat" in e-mails, Carnivore is only used when an Internet service provider cannot perform a court-ordered intercept on its own. The entire source code is contained in a single personal computer, which can be accessed into an ISP's data stream but is removed when a court order expires. The system does not hunt for categories or look at the content or the subject lines of e-mails. Instead it looks for an "authentication code" contained in "packets" zipping along an ISP's data stream that identify the e-mail of someone targeted by a court order. Carnivore reassembles the packets into a whole so that the e-mail can be read by the FBI. Any extraneous unassembled data picked up by Carnivore is discarded without being examined, Kerr explained to reporters last month. The whole process is electronically audited to prevent abuse, FBI scientists said. Carnivore intercepts have been used only a dozen times in criminal investigations over the last year, always on the order of a federal judge. A judge will only issue an order for a Carnivore intercept, or an ordinary phone wiretap for that matter, if the FBI can make a convincing case that a felony has been committed or is being committed. An unspecified number of court-ordered Carnivore intercepts have been used in national security investigations, but the number is not large, the FBI said. Colgate said Thursday that Carnivore will continue to operate while the evaluation process goes forward. -- -- Copyright 2000 by United Press International.

[CTRL] Anarchist Black Bloc Press Release
http://www.magicnet.net/~jza/news.html August 8, 2000 Anarchist Black Bloc Press Release Statement from R2K Black Bloc We, the various members of the Anti-Statist Black Bloc (ASBB) put forth the following statement in the wake of the Philadelphia Police Department's blatant misinformation and the corporate media's biased reports against us. The ASBB advocates the building of an organized movement against corporate and state tyranny in America. We recognize that poor and working class people have lost control of their communities and individual lives. The Democratic and Republican parties clearly support social relations in which this is furthered. By supporting the death penalty, militarism, corporate welfare, and the cutting of social spending, amongst others, they have proven to be political parties of profit over people as all parties have. By organizing black blocs and using direct action, we confront this intolerable and unacceptable system. As anarchists we believe private property is theft, state property is a tool for the protection of corporate interests and that both must be destroyed for the creation of a society based on mutual aid and individual liberty. By spray-painting a wall we transform the way we think of it from a conception based on monetary value to one based on practicality. In a system that is concerned only with profit we make our most effective protest when we hit the oppressors in the pocketbook. Property damage, as one form of strategic direct action, is an effective way to achieve this goal. This is not just a theory ... this is a fact. Since the actions of the black bloc in Seattle against the WTO, a running debate about global capitalism and democracy has finally entered the public discourse. We are on the brink of a new social revolution. At yesterday's protest, members of the ASBB specifically targeted police and other government property. The ASBB did NOT attack "mom pop" businesses, or personal property. Remember that there are other organizations and associations that work autonomously with similar tactics. The can only be responsible for OUR actions. The ASBB disavows any responsibility for damage to the personal property of working class and "mom pop" businesses. The second most misconstrued tactic of the ASBB is the wearing of masks. Since the exposing of COINTELPRO, it has been plainly obvious that many government organizations have been monitoring and disrupting radical organizations. This is a threat to our personal safety and liberty. In this sense, we wear masks for our protection. We do not wear masks to threaten or intimidate the public. Wearing masks also sends the message that we are in solidarity with each other as equals. We look forward to the day when we can live in a society where we won't have to wear our masks. We also stand in solidarity with all the other brothers and sisters who came out to protest yesterday. We are NOT terrorists and we are not an isolated group. We represent a diverse coalition of different races, genders, classes, and political viewpoints that are truly interested in creating a meaningful democracy and fighting the real terrorists: corporate America and the police State. For it was not us who bombed an entire city block, destroying homes and countless memories. It was not us who shot dead Robert Brown. It was not us who brutalized Thomas Jones to a bloody pulp. All these actions are the responsibility of the defenders of private property, the Philadelphia police. We encourage all oppressed peoples to organize for active resistance against power and privilege. Onward to Anarchist social revoilution!!! *** NOTICE: In accordance with Title 17 U.S.C.

[CTRL] US, Phili, Statement from R2K political prisoners
http://www.ainfos.ca/ainfos06474.html A - I N F O S N E W S S E R V I C E http://www.ainfos.ca/ To the local, national, and international media: We are among the over 300 people now beginning our second week of incarceration for our participation in non-violent protests at the Republican National Convention in Philadelphia intended to raise awareness of the abuse of the criminal justice system. The Philadelphia police did not brutalise us in front of the cameras and have as a consequence been praised for their professionalism. Out of view the brutality began at once. People in handcuffs were peppersprayed. Others were hog-tied with plastic cuffs that cut off their circulation. Men were dragged and kicked in the genitals until they bled. These are only examples of some of the acts of cruelty and torture we have personally experienced. Isolated as we are, we cannot confirm the rumours we have heard of people hung by their ankles to obtain their cooperation. But we believe them. Bruised and bloody, the city of Philadelphia has little choice but to level absurd charges at us and request outrageous bails to keep us off the streets long enough for our most visible wounds to heal. There are still many of us with scabs and bruises. If half of the charges levelled against us were true, Philadelphias Center City would be a smouldering ruins. The simple fact is that the charges against us are ridiculously exaggerated when they are not completely fabricated. And we doubt many of them will ever come to trial. Our bails, ranging from $10,000 to $1,000,000 for the misdemeanors, far exceed anything ever demanded for similar charges. the exclusion of the public from our arraignments between 2 and 6 days after our arrests only made these farcical proceedings seem more sinister. In prison every effort has been made to cut us off from the outside world, from each other, and from the general population. We are confined to 2 person cells 23 hours a day. Our phones do not work and we have been denied visitors. In spite of this, we have been able to learn something of the unconscionable conditions of other prisoners. Many prisoners here have been awaiting trial for two or more years. Medical emergencies routinely go unattended for weeks or even months. The food is frequently unfit for human consumption. Pods are overcrowded, with makeshift cells serving for six men at a time. Prisoners are beaten by guards. In one case, ten guards savagely beat a handcuffed prisoner into unconsciousness. Phones are commonly out of order, making contact with families and lawyers impossible. Promissory prices are inflated. Prison workers often go unpaid for their work and money sent by family and friends often goes uncredited to prisoner accounts. Backed up toilets can go for weeks without being cleaned, with predictably wretched sanitary conditions resulting. Rehabilitative programs are effectively non-existent with even monthly sessions being an uncertainty. We have undoubtedly been shielded from the worst conditions of the prison but we have seen enough. One of us was threatened with rape by a guard. The food we get is often inedible. The treatment we have received and the conditions we have been made aware of are inconsistent with a democratic or civil society. The time is overdue for public outrage at the crimes being committed in the name of criminal justice. It is time that a new civil rights movement that has two million people, mainly black and Latino, locked up tonight. Americas prisons are its new plantations. Many of us have been on hunger strike demanding that the trumped up charges against us be dropped and that we be released. As of noon today, the rest of us are joining the hunger strike. We call on all people of good conscience to call Philadelphia officials to demand our release and to demand an end to the barbaric conditions in Philadelphias jails and prisons.

[CTRL] Boeing Fails to Pinpoint TWA 800 Crash Cause
Thursday August 10 3:02 PM ET Boeing Fails to Pinpoint TWA 800 Crash Cause By Jim Wolf WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Boeing Co. (NYSE:BA - news) said on Thursday a four-year, $32 million in-house investigation had failed to pinpoint even so much as the possible spark of the 1996 mid-air explosion of TWA Flight 800, one of its jumbo jets, that killed all 230 people on board. But the wreckage showed no signs of the Boeing 747-100's having been bombed nor hit by a missile, contrary to conspiracy theories that have circulated widely, company officials said in summarizing their part of the largest transportation accident probe in history. All 230 people aboard died when the Paris-bound aircraft exploded and fell into the Atlantic off Long Island on July 17, 1996, 14 minutes after takeoff from New York's John F. Kennedy Airport. In an April 28 submission to the National Transportation Safety Board, which heads the federal investigation, Boeing attributed the crash to ``an ignition of flammable vapors in the center wing tank, resulting in a loss of structural integrity of the aircraft.'' Briefing reporters in suburban Arlington, Va., company officials said on Thursday they had been unable to determine the ignition source and declined to name any likely candidates. ``We're going to leave that'' to the five-member safety board, which is to consider on August 22-23 its final report on the probable cause of the crash, Ron Hinderberger, director of aircraft safety for Boeing's commercial airplane group, said. ``There would be nothing that would please us more than to say 'we found it','' Hinderberger said, referring to whatever sparked the explosion. Not uncovering it was ``bothersome,'' he conceded. Investigation Boosts Safety But he said the hunt had identified ways to enhance fuel tank system safety, including a recommendation that airplane operators use air-conditioning carts when on the ground to lower fuel-tank temperatures when the thermometer tops 60 degrees Fahrenheit (15.6 degrees Celsius). Dennis Floyd, the Seattle-based company's chief engineer for airplane safety, said the investigation has prompted 48 service bulletins recommending design, maintenance and/or inspection improvements across the Boeing fleet, the most to result from any accident by far. Eleven others are in the works. Although Boeing declined to name a suspected cause, it said none of the recovered fuel system components showed any evidence of having sparked the events suspected of blowing up the airliner. Similarly, no evidence was found that any of the 747-100's fuel quantity indicators, probes or wiring were the culprits, the company said in its report to the safety board. ``Boeing's examination of the recovered wreckage did not reveal any evidence of bomb damage on the structure or damage that could be expected from a missile impact,'' Hinderberger said. He said Boeing was ``in agreement'' with a conclusion by the head of a safety board-appointed task force that witness accounts were of scant value in determining the cause. Several tales of an upward-streaking light in the sky at the time of the crash have fueled conspiracy theories centered on a missile of a type that could have been launched from boats in the area. In March, the safety board's ``witness group'' said it had reviewed 755 interviews carried out by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, calling them ``poorly suited for purposes of an aircraft accident investigation.'' Still, investigators test-fired heat-seeking, shoulder-fired ``Stinger'' missiles from a Florida beach in April to compare what witnesses reported and the sights and sounds a missile would make in the lighting and atmospheric conditions akin to those that prevailed that evening on the Long Island coast.

[CTRL] Fwd: New Template
August 2000 New template by Ken Page As you read this, I should be in Sweden, deep in the forest, staying in a beautiful cabin -- no water, no electricity, no indoor plumbing -- and no T.V. (ahh!!!). For the last two years, I've been working with people in Sweden who are sensitive to electricity. They cannot be around any electricity at all -- not even batteries in a watch. There have been major changes in these folks in the last two years. Some of them have been living alone in the forest for 5 - 7 years. They can't go to the store or be around cars, telephones or any kind of machines. These people are also sensitive to other people and their energy fields. Their isolation is so sad. Here are some of the things this group had in common: All the mercury fillings from their teeth were removed at once or very quickly. It appears this created quite a shock to their bodies. Some of the substitute dental fillings were not much better. This was done in late 1980 or early 1990. Some of them had to replace them again. After the replacement, there was a very traumatic event in their lives -- a relationship breakup, death of a loved one, job change, accident or other stressful event. After the above, their health changed almost overnight. They became tired, depressed and overly sensitive to everyday stimuli. They no longer could differentiate between themselves and others. Then electricity and chemicals began to affect their fields. Their electrical magnetic fields were fractured. Sweden has one of the highest groups of people with this condition on earth. There are thousands of people with this problem today. So here's what I think is going on with these people in Sweden -- and this is not scientific. There's a metal plate in the ocean around Sweden -- a large natural iron ore deposit off shore. I believe it affects people's electromagnetic fields because of how close Sweden is to the North Pole. I also believe it's there to help keep the North pole in alignment. I was able to help my clients in Sweden by doing a Heart Soul Healing session with them and giving them my clearing techniques to practice -- thinking clear, pulling their fields in, loving what they don't like about themselves You can find this technique on my web site (http://www.kenpage-mch.com/healingtechniques/moment.html), or in my book, The Way It Works, chapter 8 (also on my web page). People talk about love. My clients say in an altered state that they are using 90% of all their energy subconsciously to keep themselves out of love. There is a part of us that must feel love is not safe. Think about that. Basically, in most of our past relationships something went wrong. This is not even considering the possibility of relationships in past lives. There are a lot of us that don't feel it's safe to be totally open or totally vulnerable to others or ourselves. Question: how do you know how to love more than you have experienced? Answer: You don't. Next question: How many times do you have to love yourself before you believe it? Is it 10 or 100 or 1000 or 10, 000 or a million times. Only you and God know. The great news is you only have to love yourself 1% more than you've ever felt and it can change your life forever. When I work with my clients, and they are in an altered state, the average person says that at the age of 3 years old, a part of them said "I don't want to be here." "Here" meaning in their body on Earth. It's like their spirit looked around and said "I'm out of here." Well, a lot of us can relate to this. In the last year, how many of you have said "I don't want to be here"? As a matter of fact, some people say it all the time. -- "I don't like this place." "I want to go home." (Where ever that is.) What if at the age of 3 years old a part of us subconsciously pushed our energy fields out to protect our physical body from others controlling or hurting us. Most people's energetic fields are out yards, or blocks or even further. Everything in their fields affects them and their nervous system. Do you realize that if we are able to bring our fields in, we would have a choice about what to feel or not to feel? Freedom. What if our spirit has been watching us for all these years, like a part of God watching us. What if we became spiritually aware of this part watching us? We, in some way, would be striving to bring this part of ourselves back in to our physical body. This is what I call INscension. Is it possible that until we love every part of ourselves we will never feel whole or at one with ourselves? This is what I shared with my friends in Sweden and it has helped them to regain their own space and their own lives. Heaven on Earth is being safe in your own body -- unconditional with yourself. To love what you don't like about yourself and to be in the moment of that beauty. Wouldn't the Fathers and Mothers of life be proud of us? This work in

" Web-porn scandal rocks White HouseWest Wingers downloaded gay, bestial, teen sex videos, jamming firewall systemBy Paul Sperry© 2000 WorldNetDaily.comWASHINGTON -- A consultant hired last year to beef up security for the White House's computer network found massive pornographic video files passing through the system's Internet firewall, WorldNetDaily has learned.Some of the downloaded files were traced back to West Wing officials as recently as the beginning of last year, during the height of theimpeachment crisis, say sources who were involved in replacing the firewall system as part of Y2K security upgrades.The real-time video files -- which came from hard-core porn sites featuring homosexual, farm-animal and teen sex acts -- were so large in byte volume that they accounted for most of the traffic coming into the firewall, sources told WorldNetDaily.All Internet links and e-mail must first pass through the firewall before coming into the local area network for the Executive Office of thePresident and on to individual network users. The firewall system is designed to screen Internet traffic for messages containing network-crippling viruses.A Y2K computer consultant in early 1999 discovered the unusually large volume of porn-site traffic coming into the White House while reviewing the firewall logs.A White House computer specialist recalled the reaction of one of the contractors at the time."He started to laugh and said, 'It looks like the majority of traffic going through the firewall is pornography,'" said the White House employee,who spoke on the condition of anonymity.Both President Clinton and Vice President Al Gore have denounced cyber-porn and have pushed so-called "E-chips" to block the Internet's "purveyors of pornography," as Gore called them last year.White House cyber-security experts have asked WorldNetDaily to withhold the name of the Y2K contractor that upgraded the firewall system, arguing that disclosing the information would tip off hackers to the security software the White House is using and make it easier for them to breach the network. WorldNetDaily agreed to reveal only that the company is based in California.The firewall logs show the uniform resource locator, or URL (basically the Web zip code), of the porn sites from which the videos (MOVs) andstill-graphics (JPEGs and GIFs) were downloaded."There were things that said 'teen,'" the White House computer expert said. "There was gay and bestiality stuff too."Bestiality? "Donkeys, goats, dogs," explained the source, who later accessed some of the raunchier sites. "It's embarrassing."Upon the discovery of the heavy XXX-rated traffic, White House security specialists undertook a "forensics" effort to ID the White House network users who were downloading -- and watching -- the videos on government computers and time.Investigators, including White House Security Officer Charles Easley, looked at a number of variables to separate the habitual from the accidental Web-porn surfers. They scanned firewall logs over several weeks so they could see the repeat offenders. They also zeroed in on the large-byte files.What they found was shocking."There were some significant names. I can say, yes, West Wing," said one White House source familiar with the investigation. "There were women too."Many of the offenders also officed out of the Old Executive Office Building, including presidential personnel, sources say. One was in nationalsecurity.One of the worst offenders, however, was a senior White House computer-systems manager, who was reprimanded but allowed to stay in theWhite House after being treated for an "addiction" to porn. Sources say the porn abuser is so sensitive to the possibility of public exposure that he would likely take his own life if his name were disclosed here.Security experts weren't just worried about the bandwidth-eating Web videos slowing down the White House computer network for legitimate business, or bringing a "Trojan horse" virus into the system. They also feared they could open up White House officials to blackmail from outsiders looking to access the network."It's a potential security risk," said one White House insider. "A hacker could call up an official and say, 'I have evidence you've beendownloading kiddy porn. Give me your network passcode, or else.'"The Internet-linked network is unclassified (although another, classified network exists in the White House), but most everything on it is stillsensitive.At any given time it may contain secret agendas for high-level meetings over trade and other policies, for example, or advance data from
[CTRL] Fwd: Pollard asks Israel to admit he spied for them
Somebody inquired re Pollard; Joe Lieberman had been leading the cause not to consider Pollard for release - possibly Israel does not want to admit they use spies (don't we all). So during this time frame you had the Walker spies who were Navy - spying for KGB - and, KGB formed a Ku Klux Klan and tried to lay blame on KKK for their spying but they too, got caught. So KGB like FBI also sent out phoney letters on KKK stationary - leading to wrong side of horse, for surely these were a horse of a different color. Two weeks ago I had stuff on web about Pollard but lost some mail and will see if I can find where Lieberman does NOT want Pollard released. Lieberman, CFR, Bilderberger - he was lying in wait like a lion by the side of the road; bet he is ADL connected as well. His first divorce I know nothing - but the guy looks like Morris Dees and Dees, is something else. So there goes my perfect man Lieberman - he should run as a man, and not a jew for now he has orthodox jews upset. Gore has lowered his status, but Lieberman is what the masons would call a "kiss ass" at this point in time, and Santa Clause would call - well you know that one..hey Rudolph - got another reindeer. So here is stuff of Mr. Pollard..I believe the guy, but remember the Walker spies..KGB was behind that. Saba Pollard asks Israel to admit he spied for them JERUSALEM (April 30, 1997 07:08 a.m. EDT) - American Jonathan Pollard, fighting for his freedom from a life sentence in the United States, asked a court on Wednesday to order Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to admit Pollard spied for Israel. Pollard, a former U.S. naval intelligence officer caught passing information on Arab countries to the Jewish state in 1985, has repeatedly asked Israel to work for his release but it has never admitted to using him as a spy. "We want to know why the government of Israel does not state clearly Jonathan Pollard was an agent of the state of Israel," lawyer Larry Dubb, representing Pollard in the appeal to the High Court of Justice, told Israel Radio. Pollard pleaded guilty in 1986 to spying for Israel and got the maximum sentence in a case that strained U.S.-Israeli relations. Pollard, an American Jew, said he had passed information to Israel which Washington had withheld. He sought refuge from arrest at the Israeli embassy in Washington but was turned away. U.S. presidents have denied him clemency three times. Last year Israel made Pollard a citizen in an official ceremony, saying it hoped to win his freedom and resettle him in the Jewish state. Pollard's wife, Esther, said the fact her husband had been in jail 12 years was "a badge of shame" for the Israeli government. She said successive Israeli governments had promised to work for his freedom but had done nothing. "The Americans already know he is an Israeli agent," she told Israel Radio. "Why do the Israelis continue to deny it?" Dubb said Pollard backed his claim to have worked for Israel with the original U.S. charge sheet to which he admitted guilt.

Monica should be arrested for prostitutionfor she took favors for sex? And secrets for Scorpio? Saba Jonathan Pollard's Notes To His Attorney on Senator Lieberman April 28, 2000 - Justice4JP Release The following letter and addendum were written by Jonathan Pollard to his attorney Larry Dub in early 1999 regarding the efforts of Senator Joseph Lieberman to undermine Pollard's bid for executive clemency. The effect of Lieberman's anti-Pollard stance has again become news recently in the context of Hillary Clinton's candidacy for New York Senate. Mrs. Clinton routinely cites Lieberman's opposition to Pollard's release as the justification for her own refusal to take a position, even though she readily acknowledges the judicial inequities of the case. When Lieberman was challenged by NY Assemblyman Sam Colman to explain his position, it was revealed that Lieberman's opposition is essentially nothing more than politically-driven rhetoric. [Details are on the Lieberman Page] Jonathan's notes to his attorney follow: February 10, 1999 Dear Larry, RE: Recent media about Senator Joseph Lieberman's influence on my case including: Lieberman signs letter against clemency for Pollard [Feb. 5, 1999 - David Bilmes - Connecticut Jewish Ledger] The "Lieberman Letter" to Clinton from 60 Senators Further to our discussion, when you read the above documents (copies attached) please bear in mind the following points: Lieberman claims to have been privy to new secret information on my case. First of all, Lieberman has no idea whether the so-called "information" he was shown - presumably by the CIA - was the same as the material involved with my indictment. Certainly, if you look at the VICTIM IMPACT STATEMENT's description of my crime (see Dovid Zwiebel's treatment of this matter on the Web ), there is not even a hint of such monstrous damage to the national security! Second, please bear in mind that my indictment does NOT reflect a level of damage or compromise suggested by the latest leaks from the CIA. After all, if I had been guilty of such damage, the government had the option of indicting me for intending to harm the country. They didn't. As you know, there is some classified material that is so sensitive that if it's compromised major damage could result to the national security. Even if a spy has the loftiest of motives, and the country he gives the material to is the closest of allies, the law indicates that if the material is so sensitive, he should have known that its compromise could harm the national security. In this instance he could, and should, be indicted with the prong of the Espionage Statute stipulating "intentional harm". AND I WAS NOT Third, what gives Lieberman the right to see classified material that is currently being withheld from my lawyers? A need-to-know? Why? Does his need supercede my constitutional right to see the so-called "evidence" being used against me? As far as I am concerned, Lieberman's access to this material, in a way, implicates him in an obstruction of justice. After all, he is knowingly participating in an unconstitutional denial of my due process rights... Finally, if what I did was so bad, and if Israel was so criminal in her mishandling of the material I allegedly gave her, why hasn't Senator Lieberman now moved for a termination of all U.S. intelligence-sharing with Israel? (signed) Jonathan Addendum to the Lieberman Notes for Larry from Jonathan February 11, 1999 Larry, it should also be clear that the sense of the Senate letter Lieberman signed along with 60 of his colleagues is a potential arrow aimed at the heart of the U.S.- Israel special relationship. Indeed, the portrayal of Israel as a manipulative foreign power pressuring the U.S. into doing something against her best interests is a canard that our worst enemies have been trying to promote in the American media for years. And now we have none other than Senator Joseph Lieberman endorsing this malignant representation of the Jewish State. When all is said and done, what I really find distressing about Lieberman's decision is that his strenuous defense of the President's right to due process and fair play hasn't been paralleled by a
[CTRL] Fwd: Mario's Cyberspace Station: Jonathan Pollard (Mossad)
For anyone interested - here is a good web site has everything up to date and history of spies. I do know this much - my old friend had an old friend and that guy was running for his life, for they were seeking to kill him - and he did not know whether it was CIA or KGB he was former OSS and CIA out of Rourmania...he was at Beverly Hills fire way back, which was meeting ground for spies and mafia (is there really a difference) and then I do not think he realized the KGB and CIA had gotten into same bed.they say he knew too much and someone wanted him silenced. So, today stop and think - from day JFK was murdered our country has been torn asunder until people do not trust anybody - but then I was told by my MI6 friend to trust nobody- and she was right, for the people get to you through your friends.. So Pollard is something else - he knows something and is safer in jail.for this man is not outin cold he is still on the hot seat? Saba A. Saba Dare To Call It Conspiracy A.

The only candidate not on the members list is G.W. Bush Jr. who is a member by proxy. His grandfather Prescott was a CFR pioneer, while dad, George Sr. was an executive of the accursed cult whose aim is a one world government. With only 3000 it is clear that only CFR members and loyalists may become President. Last time around the figures were the same, Gore, Dole and Clinton were CFR members. The story has been similar for the past two generations. Rabbi Marvin Antleman has been fighting the CFR for three decades. Council On Foreign Relations http://www.foreignrelations.org/public/ In 1972, he submitted a proposal to the Rabbinical Council of America to condemn the CFR and prevent its members from infiltrating Jewish institutions. In 1974, his book To Eliminate The Opiate was published. Long considered a classic in many circles, the book exposed the CFR's program to wipe out Judaism by planting its members throughout Jewish media, charitable and educational institutes. He called last night to tell me that, "I just went through the CFR roster. Lieberman's name is on the membership list. We're being sold a bill of goods again." Studies Department: The Council's Think Tank http://www.foreignrelations.org/public/studiesprog.html The CFR's Middle East Task Force Report of July 1996 spells out the organization's position in no uncertain terms; Israel must return to its undefendable 1948 borders and Jerusalem is to be divided into two national capitals. Rabbi Antleman thus doubts the authenticity of Lieberman's commitment to Orthodox Jewry. "How can you be Orthodox and belong to an organization which promotes the division of Jerusalem and which, in the past, has financially backed such irreligious movements as communism and nazism?" he asks. "The CFR's purpose is to promote and arm violent and disruptive national movements in order to upset the world's status quo and replace it with their alternative world order. There is no place within for a religious Jew unless he is dangerous window dressing." What that will mean for Israel is more suicidal concessions with American Jews unable to accuse the administration of being anti-Israel. The same trick was used in 1972 when CFR executive Henry Kissinger was named Secretary of State. Equally proud of Kissinger as they are of Lieberman today, the Jewish community could not accuse the administration of deliberately trying to eliminate Israel in the Yom Kippur War of 1973, nor could they find sinister motives for the isolation of Israel in the peace process which followed it. This time around, not only does the current "peace" process get a boost, so does the Hillary Clinton campaign for a New York senatorial seat. And the Jews, so excited by Lieberman's nomination, as usual, do not suspect how cynically they are being set up. The signs are there for anyone to see. Last year Lieberman welcomed Arafat to America and even prayed for the success of his mission. And he initiated a publicized letter to President Clinton nixing any chance of CFR victim Jonathan Pollard's release from prison. As the Jerusalem Post noted, Pollard's website has long accused Lieberman of being "a willing tool of the CIA." Sooner of later Lieberman's possible dual allegiance to America and Israel will become a debating point. Observes Antleman, "And that will miss the real issue, which is Lieberman's allegiance to the CFR. It will prove stronger than all his sentimental ties to America, Israel and to Judaism itself."

In other words, the people who had the goods on Clinton and his cabal were making plans to arrest all of them. All these men were blown out of the sky and murdered. To keep their murders from being investigated -- the Murrah building was blown up and 168 additional men, women and children were murdered. For the last few months, Rumor Mill News has been receiving information that foreign governments are investigating the United States. Many of these investigations started due to Echelon. But once the investigations started, they were propelled by the fuel they discovered. These investigators are just about to release their information -- It could come out any day now -- Or will it? Today two small planes collided over New Jersey. One of the planes was from theLakehurst Naval Air Station and it was on the way to Pax River Naval Facilities. It was carrying 8 or 9 civilian government employees. Pax River is important because this is the installation where a new super secret spy unit was to be based. The new spy unit was to be named DIS (Defense Intelligence Services). It was supposed to be the umbrella that oversaw the operations of 26 intelligence services. It is not known if DIS was exclusively made up of United States intelligence services, or if other allies were/are members. Sherman Skolnick has speculated that only 13 of the intel units are from the United States, and the other 13 are made up of our allies. In light of the information that our allies are conducting the investigations, this makes sense. Is the collision of these two small planes an attempt to stop the investigators from releasing information that will rock this government to its core? I think today was round one in the war -- Other things that are happening -- + The Rumor Mill News webpage is being hit hard today by government agencies. So is Surfing the Apocalypse and other similar webpages. My computer is barely running -- and I can barely stay on the Web. + Sherman Skolnick reported that the Arkansas area code is constantly busy -- in other words -- no one can call Arkansas. + Skolnick also said that many people have called him and reported that when they send faxes -- the faxes emerge on the other end in a DIFFERENT FONT. This can happen if they have been intercepted by a computer and then resent. + Skolnick also said that he has been told that the Vince Foster investigation is heating up again -- He has been told that the investigators have hard evidence that Foster was murdered. + Skolnick reported years ago that Foster was the equivalent to a three star general in NSA + Skolnick also reported that Foster has sold the Israelis national security secrets. http://www.skolnicksreport.com + Rumors is Israel state that late today or tomorrow could see a riot at the Wailing Wall which could escalate into a war which could possibly see damage done to the sacred Moslem site, the Dome of the Rock. This could be the prelude to Armageddon. + Other sources have told RMNews that the huge metal trusts that RMNews has written about are just about to be broken. These trusts have had liens and lines of credit on them. As a result -- the trusts had to stay in tact. The money that was received from the liens and lines of credit was put into the United States stock market. If these liens and lines of credit are paid off, it means that the money has been taken out of the stock market. If all the money from all of the lines of credit and liens is pulled out at one time -- THE MARKET CRASHES + The timing of the pullout from the market depends on who is winning the war. + If the Bush supporters are ahead or more in favor -- the pull out will come right before the election. + If the Clinton people can somehow hold on to power -- the crash will come after the election -- Gore will take the fall for it -- and

Actually it says POSSIBLE dual 'allegiance', to whit: Sooner of later Lieberman's possible dual allegiance to America and Israel will become a debating point.

What family has been involved in many wars, actively backed Hitler's war effort http://www.tarpley.net/bush2.htm Could they be attempting to make sure that US citizens are exempt from UN laws? ..."Friedrich Flick was the major co-owner of the German Steel Trust with Fritz Thyssen, Thyssen's long-time collaborator and occasional competitor. In preparation for the war crimes tribunal at Nuremberg, the U.S. government said that Flick was `` one of leading financiers and industrialists who from 1932 contributed large sums to the Nazi Party ... member of `Circle of Friends' of Himmler who contributed large sums to the SS. ''@s1@s5 Flick, like Thyssen, financed the Nazis to maintain their private armies called Schutzstaffel (S.S. or Black Shirts) and Sturmabteilung (S.A., storm troops or Brown Shirts). The Flick-Harriman partnership was directly supervised by Prescott Bush, President Bush's father, and by George Walker, President Bush's grandfather. The Harriman-Walker Union Banking Corp. arrangements for the German Steel Trust had made them bankers for Flick and his vast operations in Germany by no later than 1926. "...

The only candidate not on the members list is G.W. Bush Jr. who is a member by proxy. His grandfather Prescott was a CFR pioneer, while dad, George Sr. was an executive of the accursed cult whose aim is a one world government. With only 3000 it is clear that only CFR members and loyalists may become President. Last time around the figures were the same, Gore, Dole and Clinton were CFR members. The story has been similar for the past two generations. Rabbi Marvin Antleman has been fighting the CFR for three decades. Council On Foreign Relations http://www.foreignrelations.org/public/ In 1972, he submitted a proposal to the Rabbinical Council of America to condemn the CFR and prevent its members from infiltrating Jewish institutions. In 1974, his book To Eliminate The Opiate was published. Long considered a classic in many circles, the book exposed the CFR's program to wipe out Judaism by planting its members throughout Jewish media, charitable and educational institutes. He called last night to tell me that, "I just went through the CFR roster. Lieberman's name is on the membership list. We're being sold a bill of goods again." Studies Department: The Council's Think Tank http://www.foreignrelations.org/public/studiesprog.html The CFR's Middle East Task Force Report of July 1996 spells out the organization's position in no uncertain terms; Israel must return to its undefendable 1948 borders and Jerusalem is to be divided into two national capitals. Rabbi Antleman thus doubts the authenticity of Lieberman's commitment to Orthodox Jewry. "How can you be Orthodox and belong to an organization which promotes the division of Jerusalem and which, in the past, has financially backed such irreligious movements as communism and nazism?" he asks. "The CFR's purpose is to promote and arm violent and disruptive national movements in order to upset the world's status quo and replace it with their alternative world

Re: [CTRL] Anarchist Black Bloc Press Release
If you use violence to change violence, you have changed nothing. I take it that you have never fought off a rapist. Think about this for a minute before you start generalizing, here. Don't be so simplistic. First of all, what is violence? Is property damage violence? Is self defense? What about the Boston Tea Party? Was that violence? And if it was, does that make it wrong? Was Concord wrong? Was Lexington? How about Bunker Hill? How about Yorktown? Gettysburg? Kursk? D-Day? The liberation of Auschwitz? Was it wrong to liberate Auschwitz simply because it required shooting a whole bunch of Germans, dismembering others and burning others alive? Was it wrong to end slavery with bayonets and powder? Violence is not a bad thing. Violence is not a good thing. It's just a thing, that's all. It's been part of Nature since life began. Whether it's a good thing or or a bad thing depends on who is doing it to whom, where, when, how and why. There's a world of difference between a knife to his victim's throat and a knee to a rapist's crotch. Personally, I only use violence in self defense. In part this is because I'm a four eyed, grey haired, gimp. I didn't used to be this way. I used to be young. The last time I actually started a fight was back in '91. A guy was beating on a woman on Haight St. one night I thought it was a domestic. So i attacked him. That broke it up quick. I'm an old fashioned guy, I guess, because that's what my Grandma raised me up to believe a guy is supposed to do in a case like that. Don't let the strong beat on the weak. Don't let a man beat on a woman. Don't let anyone beat on a child. Stop them. Do it yourself. That's what she taught me. Somebody has to it, because the cops sure as hell wont. It's not their job. Cops don't prevent crime. Cops don't even show up till after it's already over. It turned out not to be a domestic at all, but drug deal gone bad, and none of my business, really. She ran one way; he ran the other. I chased him around the corner. He had a couple friends waiting around the corner. To my enormous surprise, I suddenly in over my head. Fortunately, none of them noticed. Had they noticed, I'd have been hard put to get out of it alive, even though there was only three of them. It's come to that. Old age sucks, bigtime. I don't recommend it at all. Worse, all three of them got away. When I was young, I'd have picked one of them up and knocked the other two down with him. But I'm not young any more and I'm smart enough not to have to get hurt to prove it. If these guys had been smart, or even sober, they'd have had me. But I lucked out. They didn't have clue one about the nature of the terrain or of our relative positions. Let's hear it for crack and malt liquor. Or maybe they were just naturally stupid. Either way, lucky me. Now don't get me wrong, here. Luck is cool. I like luck a lot. But I don't think I ought to be figuring it into the budget. I did get my licks in before they got away. But I could not run them down for the life of me. I don't have the stamina. In a running fight, the first guy who gets winded, loses, and that's how it is. I didn't even try. I see no point in losing a street fight with anyone. It's bad tactics and worse strategy. It's not good for the health, either. So I just let them go. Since that happened, I've totally given up rescuing people. I'd probably change my mind in a hurry if I saw a child getting beat on, but that hasn't happened. I sincerely hope it doesn't, because I'm definitely to old for this stuff. Oh well. Same goes for all these street actions lately. Personally, I'm not going to go riot in LA. I'm much too old to go rioting. When I was young, I used to go rioting sometimes, when the occasion called for it. (See:http://www.sfbg.com/nessie/mutt.html) I don't feel the least bit guilty about this. Au contrair. I'm proud of myself. It was definitely the right thing to do at the time. It definitely helped make the world a better place by helping end an unjust, no-win war. This undoubtedly saved countless lives. Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire and that's just how it is in this world. Get used to it. Or build a different world. That doesn't mean that I think you should go rioting now. I'm definitely not trying to incite you to riot. I'm not trying to incite anybody else to riot either. I'm especially not doing this over the internet, especially not a couple days before D2K, especially not with the FBI reading over our shoulders, no matter who tries to sucker me into it. I might be stupid, but I'm not crazy. (See: http://www.sfbg.com/nessie/24.html) I'm not all that stupid, either. If a cell phone is an "instrument of crime," what's that make a modem? Even if I WAS inciting you to riot, which I am NOT doing, that alone would be no reason for you to riot. Don't let other people incite you to riot, especially over the internet. Don't let other people incite you to not riot, either. Don't let other
[CTRL] Paper: EgyptAir Co-Pilot Investigated for Lewd Acts
Friday August 11 12:20 AM ET Paper: EgyptAir Co-Pilot Investigated for Lewd Acts WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The co-pilot at the controls of EgyptAir Flight 990 when it plunged into the Atlantic Ocean, had been investigated by a New York hotel's security force for allegedly exposing himself, USA Today reported on Friday, citing several sources connected to the inquiry. USA Today published the front-page report the same day that the National Transportation Safety Board is due to release data from its investigation into the Oct. 31 crash off the Massachusetts coast that killed all 217 people on board. The paper said the allegations against relief co-pilot Gamil al-Batouti are contained in FBI investigative reports, some of which will be included in the documents to be released on Friday by the NTSB. Friday's release of data will also include a transcript of the cockpit voice recording, but without any analysis of the crash or findings of a probable cause. EgyptAir Flight 990 was less than an hour out of New York and headed for Cairo at 33,000 feet (10,000 meters) when its autopilot shut off, its throttles cut back and the elevators on the tail initiated a steep descent. During the dive, someone cut off the engines, and the elevators moved in opposite directions. The plane recovered from the plunge at about 16,000 feet (4,800 meters), climbed back to 24,000 feet (7,200 meters) and then fell again. Last year, unidentified U.S. investigators told news organizations that the utterance of a prayer on the tape bolstered theories that al-Batouti may have deliberately brought the Boeing 767 down. Hall has previously said the board has uncovered no mechanical failure that would explain the crash, but has condemned leaks from unidentified officials and said that no conclusion has been reached. Egyptian sources have cited evidence of a mechanical failure that could have caused the crash, USA Today reported. As part of the crash investigation, federal authorities questioned some employees at the Hotel Pennsylvania, where EgyptAir flight crews were housed during layovers in New York. Witnesses there told investigators that the Egyptian reserve co-pilot engaged in a series of sexually suggestive acts in public, USA Today reported, quoting sources with knowledge of the investigation. In one instance, al-Batouti reportedly exposed himself at a hotel window to people located in a nearby courtyard, USA Today quoted the sources as saying. In another, a group of young women complained that he followed them in a hotel hallway. At least some of the events took place in the days before the crash, the paper said, quoting its unnamed sources.
