[CTRL] China Has US Anti-Missile Tech, Via Transfer From Israel
-Caveat Lector- http://www.worldtribune.com/worldtribune/06/front2453832.096526.html China has U.S. anti-missile tech, via transfer from Israel Special to World Tribune.com EAST-ASIA-INTEL.COM Thursday, April 6, 2006 China has developed its own version of the Patriot anti-missile system, according to a Chinese-owned Hong Kong newspaper. The ground-to-air guided missile system is part of China's air shield that is similar to U.S. Patriot missiles, the March 29 Wen Wei Po reported. --> China covertly obtained Patriot anti-missile system technology from Israel during the 1990s, according to U.S. officials. U.S. intelligence agencies discovered the Israel-China Patriot technology transfer in March 1993. The transfers came from U.S.-made Patriots sent to Israel to counter Iraqi missile attacks during the Persian Gulf war. The report described the system's command and control system, vehicles and interceptors. In 1993, then-CIA Director Robert Gates told The Washington Times, There is some indication that they [the Chinese] have some of the technology. www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

Nearly three-quarters of the automated “security event messages” and “detect.misuse.porn” alerts originated from 16 devices on the department’s wide area network, according to the report. However, DHS could not identify the specific workstations that had generated the messages, the inspector general found. Under DHS policy, employees are forbidden to access pornographic materials from workstations. However, the “detect.misuse.porn” message may not necessarily indicate pornography, the IG report explains in a footnote. DHS’ automated network security tools are programmed to look for pornographic keywords such as “oral.” But sometimes alerts are generated when the keywords are embedded in other words, such as in “behavioral,” the report said. The security warnings are generated automatically by network security tools and are intended to help secure IT systems and detect hacking attempts and viruses. DHS is not using those tools effectively, the audit found. The number of security events increased dramatically in the last year. In July 2004, DHS was receiving about 5.4 million messages per month. In February, March and April 2005, the months in which the audit took place, there were 65 million messages, the report said. Now that "everything changed, after 9/11," why is Homeland Security and the FBI diverting resources from defending all Americans against terrorism to preventing American adults from finding FREE sexually-stimulating material on the Internet? See last item posted below on the Bush Administration's "war on porn" (primarily legal adult porn, specifically Internet porn -- NOT, contrary to public claims, JUST illegal kiddie porn). One really has to wonder if the REAL motive for the Bush family's "War on Porn" is the same as can be inferred from the conduct of its earlier "War on Drugs" ... Like drugs, pornography is also a multi-billion-dollar industry ["kiddie porn" alone reportedly generates $40 billion a year in profits, untaxed!] within an international "underground economy" that includes traditional Bush/CIA/Octopus "hobbies" like money-laundering, "mass-murder for hire," and illegal arms-smuggling and -dealing. Nothing like the US government's global intelligence and international police powers to give one an edge in efforts to eliminate competitors and "corner the market," to absorb "black markets" into the "black budget" available for the funding of possibly even more sinister "black ops" ... Department of Homeland Perversion Wayne Madsen Report, April 6, 2006 Doyle wasn't the only child predator. In the Department of Homeland Security deputy Press Secretary Brian Doyle, arrested in Maryland for soliciting sex from a Florida undercover detective posing as a 14-year old girl, had company. On October 25, 2005, Tampa-based Homeland Security Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement official Frank Figueroa was arrested at Orlando's Mall at Millenia for exposing himself and masturbating in front of a 16-year old girl. Figueroa used his federal law enforcement badge in an attempt to avoid arrest. Figueroa had been in charge of the Homeland Security Department's Operation Predator -- designed to curb child sexual exploitation and child pornography. It is clear that as reported yesterday by WMR, the Bush administration and the GOP are chock full of pedophiles, sexual harasse

(NATHAN LAUGHTON/CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHER) E-mail this article Format this article for printing Comment on this article This week, they are hard to ignore. Cloaked figures huddle at the doors of Au Bon Pain; blindfolded juniors hunch in the drizzly Swing Space courtyard; a boy stands with a megaphone on Broadway and tells a girl across the street to "Swing on that pole. Come on. You're not gonna get in like that." The madness is everywhere: It is secret society tap week at Yale, and tonight is tap night. Among the elite organizations that populate Princeton, Harvard and Yale, Yale's secret societies are perhaps the best known. With movies like "The Skulls," bestsellers like "Secrets of the Tomb," and alums including the current president of the United States, secret societies are part of a national myth of Ivy League elitism. But compared to Princeton's eating clubs and Harvard's final clubs, students and administrators say Yale's secret societies actually play a much smaller role in life at the University. Though the societies may be hard to ignore during tap week, they maintain a relatively low profile otherwise. Kate Gasner '09 said she had no idea prior to this week that secret society tapping was such a spectacle. She said she has been surprised by the prevalence of inductees on campus. "I thought it was all supposed to be secret, so I'm sort of perplexed," she said. "But it seems like a good excuse to have fun." Yale's tradition of secret societies began in 1832, when seniors Alphonso Taft, Class of 1833, and William Huntington Russell, Class of 1833, founded the Order of Skull and Bones. Scroll and Key, which is still considered by many Yale students to be the next most illustrious society, was founded in opposition to its predecessor in 1841. At least seven other societies -- Berzelius, Book and Snake, Elihu, St. Elmo, Wolf's Head, Mace and Chain, and Manuscript -- were founded at Yale in the 19th century. Today, the "tomb societies" -- so called because they are housed in windowless "tombs" that dot campus -- are complimented by an unknown number of newer and less-formal societies, such as Fork and Knife or D.S.G., or "Drunk Senior Girls." While a few societies have both junior and senior members, the majority of societies tap students at the end of their junior year and admit them as full members as seniors. Each tomb society admits approximately 15 students per year, so at any one time, only a small percentage of Yalies are full members of the major societies. Like administrators at Princeton and Harvard, Yale administrators said these private clubs have no official relationship to the University. Yale President Richard Levin said he does not think societies play a large role in the experience of most Yale students. "My impression is that some societies have a major impact on the individuals who are members," Levin said. "They do not appear to have much impact on the wider Yale community." The impact of secret societies on Yale, Levin said, is more similar to that of final clubs on Harvard than eating clubs on Princeton. More than 75 percent of Princeton upperclassmen are members of eating clubs, and because the clubs act as dining halls and study spaces, not just social spaces, they play a much larger part in students' daily lives. Both eating clubs and final clubs admit students in their sophomore year, giving them a longer-term presence in students' lives than secret societies. At Yale,
