The subpoena calls for documents related to the fund, the Carlyle Group and Robert Kjellander, said sources familiar with the investigation who spoke only on condition of anonymity, saying prosecutors want details of the probe kept secret. Kjellander, a Springfield-based lobbyist who headed President Bush's re-election campaign in three states, was named the RNC's treasurer over the weekend. Officials of the Illinois Teachers Retirement System expressed concern about the amount of finders fees Carlyle offered Kjellander for helping to land business with the pension fund - $3.1 million paid and $1.4 million due. "I believe that we were all taken aback when we learned of the size of his compensation for services to the Carlyle Group," said Jon Bauman, executive director of the pension fund. He said the amount would not be unusual if paid to a major firm that places such business, such as Merrill Lynch or Goldman Sachs, but is extraordinary for payment to a small operation. Neither the Carlyle Group nor Kjellander and his Springfield Consulting Group have been accused of any wrongdoing in connection with the investigation. Kjellander did not immediately return calls to his Springfield office Tuesday. Carlyle officials have been summoned to a pension board meeting in Chicago on Thursday to answer questions about the investment firm's relationship with Kjellander and the finders fees it is paying him. The subpoena was part of an ongoing federal investigation of corruption involving the fund, which pays the pensions of retired downstate and suburban teachers. A former fund trustee and two Chicago attorneys already are under indictment. One of the two lawyers, Joseph Cari Jr., is a former finance chairman of the Democratic National Committee. Carlyle spokesman Christopher Ullman said Kjellander's fees are in line with what such private equity firms usually pay to placement agents and that the pension funds investment in Carlyle is simply smart business. The average return on these funds is 45 percent per year, he said. Youre not going to get that out of an S&P fund. The pensioners and board are doing very well investing in Carlyle. He said Kjellander represents Carlyle before eight other public bodies in Illinois but declined to name them or say whether they have committed to investing with the firm. Cari was indicted one week ago along with Chicago attorney Steven Loren and millionaire political contributor Stuart P. Levine on charges of shaking down firms that sought to provide investments to the $30 billion teachers pension fund. Levine was a trustee for the fund. All three are to be arraigned today and are expected to plead not guilty, although Lorens attorney has said he is cooperating with the investigation. Bauman said teachers pension fund workers have found a January 2002 memo from Levine to a fund staff member, saying, Call me about this. Attached was a letter to Levine from a Carlyle official that said: At the request of Bob Kjellander, I enclose for your consideration four items concerning the Carlyle Group and more specifically Carlyle Venture Partners II. Kjellander was quoted in Tuesdays editions of the Chicago Tribune as saying he might have sent the board a background thing about Carlyle that indicated he would appreciate consideration of the investment firm. Thats part of my job, he said. My job was to say, Give these guys an opportunity to present their case. Kjellander - pronounced shuh-LAN-dur - is a member of the RNC and friend of presidential adviser Karl Rove. He was patronage chief under Gov. James Thompson. RNC spokesman Danny Diaz said the Republican

[cia-drugs] Trouble with Brussels Sprouts: Is the EU Food and Supplements Directive the real target?
Trouble with Brussels SproutsIs the EU Food and Supplements Directive the real target?by Phillip Day The word was quickly passed. A million alternative health networks shuddered involuntarily like cobwebs vibrating in the evening breeze as the shocking news spread: the European Union was going to seize the vitamins and the herbals. The drug industry was having its long-awaited spasm and clamping down on 'unregulated' nutritional treatments to shore up the millions in drug revenues it was losing to the vitamin 'quacks'. Something sinister called Codex Alimentarius was casting its Big Brother shadow across the Eurozone. Americans and other world populations looked on with apprehension. The Campaign for Truth in Medicine, which I represent, received its initial briefing on the Euro move to regulate the alternative health industry's supplements quite a while ago. As we snuffled around, we discovered that getting information on the proposed legislation was like trying to pull a string of sausages out of the jaws of an elkhound. No-one in the EU seemed to be talking or willing to show their hand. Real information was sketchy. The rumour mill chuntered away on overtime. As different muddy angles on the European vitamin affair began to materialise, our excavations soon began moving away from the draconian European Directive on Vitamin Supplements and settled on an altogether more culpable target - the real zero - the European Union itself. THE EU SUPPLEMENTS DIRECTIVE - WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT? On 12th March 2002, while Samantha and I were preparing for our seminar in Norwich, England, the breeze suddenly stiffened and a piece of legislation silently passed hundreds of miles to the south-east. With barely a ripple in the ether, the EU had voted and passed the directive which would limit the upper intakes of hundreds of nutrients to ridiculously low levels - in certain cases, 1/50th or even less of what many nutritional doctors recommend as therapeutic doses. Like Germany and France, many were now facing the prospect of not just severe censure in the amounts of nutrients they could take, but what they could buy at all. For, hidden within the Trojan Horse 'harmonisation' proposals used to justify entering the launch codes against the nutritional supplements industry, was the realisation that anything not on the EU list of 'accepted' supplements was now in for an outright ban. Manufacturers who wished to field anything atrociously 'new' would be required to spend millions proving benefit through exhaustive 'drug testing' - a state of affairs guaranteed to bankrupt even the most stalwart of the green corporations. For 13 years, European pharmaceutical conglomerates have been contemplating a standardised market for vitamin and mineral supplements in order to bring these threatening red-headed stepchildren into check. Various attempts to harmonise the industry met with sustained opposition, not least from the UK government and its vitamin consumers. In January 2000, the Brussels Commission, during one of those rare, brief periods in which it was not being found guilty of fraud and accounting corruption, tabled a White Paper on Food Safety. A later document, 500PC0222 (what sort of monster invents that kind of archiving system?) concluded that a wide disparity existed on alternative medicine dosages, and proposed legislation to correct the imbalance. In France and Germany, for instance, no products containing more than one times the Recommended Daily Allowance may be sold without a drug licence. And this is a problem. Vitamin C's RDA is 40-60mg. Yet the therapeutic dosage of C begins at 500mg and goes up beyond 10,000mg. So if you wish to treat yourself with megadoses of Vitamin C for your cancer, best visit Homebase now and buy up a wheelbarrow in readiness to haul all those expensive, tiny vitamin pills back to base-camp. MASSIVE PUBLIC BACKLASH TO NO AVAIL Most UK Members of the Euro Parliament (MEPs) voted against the vitamin initiative, which nevertheless passed. In spite of some 400 million pieces of mail, e-mails, faxes and skywritings thrown at Brussels vociferously protesting this attack on human rights - naturally along with the predictable media black-out - the motion was approved, with 383 MEPs in favour and 139 against. Considerable resources had been expended by the pharmaceutical industry to lobby members for their vote. The public's outrage was ignored. So where are we now? There is an intervening period currently occurring which is designed to allow member states to pass laws aligning themselves with the new directive. Products that do not comply with the directive will be banned after 1st June 2005. Upper safe limits have been arbitrarily allocated to such a conservative list of nutrients, over which supplement dosage will be regulated, that the vast majority of other, more specialised nutrients not included on the list will be effe

"Upon what basis did the 9.11 Commission conclude that the FBIs timeline was correct and that an elite Army Intel unit was mistaken in saying they were tracking Mohamed Atta roaming freely across America during 1999 and 2000? The importance of this weeks revelation that an Army intelligence unit was tracking Mohamed Attas movements in the U.S. during 1999 and 2000 is so mind-bogglingly massive that it seems that nobody seems to quite get it yet... Youve been hearing it for three years in articles in the MadCowMorningNews, and in Welcome to TerrorLand. Now you can hear it from an elite Army intelligence unit, one which obviously has several patriots with very large cojones. Their testimony is clear and explicit and only one conclusion can be drawn from it... The FBI has been telling a massive lie to the 9.11 Commission and the American people, a lie whose result has been to halt in its tracks, as a Commission spokesman freely admitted on Thursday, the investigation into the murder of almost 3000 people. People go to jail for that sort of thing, dont they?

[cia-drugs] August 11, 2005 -- Frazer involved in a Karl Rove dirty tricks campaign against yet another Washington, DC wife
http://waynemadsenreport.com/August 11, 2005 -- Frazer involved in a Karl Rove dirty tricks campaign against yet another Washington, DC wife. While she was U.S. ambassador to South Africa, Jendayi Frazer demonstrated her partisan GOP loyalties by assisting Karl Rove in an attempt to dig up dirt on Democratic Presidential candidate John Kerry's wife Teresa Heinz Kerry during the 2004 presidential campaign. In a move similar to his outing of Joseph Wilson's covert CIA agent wife, Rove ordered Frazer to dig up all she could on the student activities of Maria Teresa Thierstein Simoes-Ferreira (Mrs. Heinz Kerry's maiden name) while attending the University of Witwatersrand in Johanesburg, South Africa. Mrs. Kerry was born in Lourenco Marques, the capital of the then-Portuguese colony of Mozambique.According to South African government sources, Frazer authorized a partisan Republican embassy employee to visit the dean of students at Witwatersrand to obtain a copy of Mrs. Kerry's apartheid-era "student security file," a dossier maintained in accordance with a requirement of South African state security at the time of the apartheid regime. The embassy employee who made repeated visits to the campus and always wore a blue blazer, khaki trousers, and an open necked blue Oxford shirt, came up empty-handed due to current South African privacy laws governing release of such files. Rove was particularly interested in Mrs. Kerry's file because of the sensitive personal information student security files then contained. Because Mrs. Kerry was involved in the anti-apartheid movement during her enrollment at Wits from 1956-1960, South African security maintained a file on her and Rove was reportedly tipped off about it. Typically, files maintained on white anti-apartheid students would include information from professors and students on whether the subject slept with black African students and whether they were involved with members of the South African Communist Party.The U.S. embassy staffer assigned to dig up dirt on Mrs. Kerry also attempted to obtain two other files maintained on the possible future First Lady of the United States. One was the state security file maintained on Mrs. Kerry's anti-apartheid and political activities outside campus -- including her overseas travel and non-student friends and associates. At the time, South African security maintained extensive files on a number of South African citizens and resident aliens, including those from neighboring Portuguese and British colonies. The other file of interest was that maintained by the former Portuguese intelligence service, Policia Internacional e de Defesa do Estado or "PIDE." PIDE maintained extensive archives on the citizenry of metropolitan Portugal and its colonies. Upon Mozambique's independence in 1975, PIDE's Mozambican archives were transferred to the South African security service "BOSS" (Bureau of State Security). However, South African and Portuguese security files are now restricted by strong post-apartheid privacy legislation and it is uncertain how successful the U.S. embassy functionary was in obtaining access to Mrs. Kerry's state security files. It is also possible, according to South African government sources, that, in anticipation of Bush administration interest in Mrs. Kerry, her dossiers were refiled by the security section of South African Archives under the names Thierstein, Simoes, or Ferreira to confuse anyone trying to gain unauthorized access. Rove misused U.S. Embassy in Pretoria to dig up files on Teresa Kerry during 2004 campaign. U.S. ambassador rewarded with Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs post.Rove also apparently was interested in Mrs. Kerry's older brother, Jose Pedro Simoes Ferreira, a former Portuguese Naval officer who was reportedly involved in leftist Portuguese politics and backed the 1974 military coup against the fascist Portuguese leader Marcello Caetano. Now in his 70s, Jose is a graduate of Britain's Cambridge University and currently lives in the Pittsburgh area with his wife, a Carnegie Mellon University professor and attorney. It is not known whether Rove used the U.S. embassies in Lisbon and London to comb files on Jose Pedro, but Washington sources report that Rove demanded personal information on Mrs. Kerry's entire family. Mrs. Kerry's sister was killed in an auto accident at the age of 19. It is noteworthy that at the time of Rove's file search, the U.S. ambassadors to Lisbon and London were also GOP functionaries and big time contributors to George Bush -- Lisbon envoy Gerald McGowan of the Washington, DC law firm Lukas, McGowan, Nace & Gutierrez and former board member of the Cellular Telecommunications Industries Association and London envoy Willliam S. Farish, the millionaire Texas owner of W. S. Farish Trust Company of Houston, the company that managed then-Vice President George H. W. Bush's blind trust in the 1980s, a trust that was flush with ill-gotten funds from Saudi
[cia-drugs] Troubles at the House of Rothschild?
http://iraqwar.mirror-world.ru/article/59760 Troubles at the House of Rothschild?By: Tet I received an interesting e-mail the other day that got me thinking. The e-mail stated that Jacob Rothschild is quite sick and this is causing some problems in the world of finance, media and just who controls things. One has to ask the question; Is whats going on in the world really nothing more than a family feud? Are the Rothschilds in Paris, actually in a war with the Rothschilds of London? After getting the e-mail I started to do a little research and when you look at the world in this light things fall in place just a little too easily. I tried looking up news on Jacob Rothschild and found nothing; I guess I should have expected that. For all I can tell Jacob is already dead, really sick, not sick, playing tennis everyday or busy trying to pass on the family fortune to his son Nathaniel. Now this appears to be where the problems start, maybe after 200 and twenty plus years of inbreeding with your cousins the family gene may have blown a circuit. Looks like Nathaniel might not have the equipment required in order to run a global dynasty. Now back to the question of the Rothschilds of London and the Rothschilds of Paris. What do the Rothschilds of London want a currency to be and what do the Rothschilds of Paris want a currency to be. The London House of Jacob and his not quite altogether son Nathaniel clearly believe Oil is money. When Mikhail Khodorkovsky passed his shares of Yukos over to Jacob while on his way to prison in 2003 it became pretty clear just which side Jacob was on. This does make one wonder exactly who had Khodorkovsky sent to prison though. Its interesting to note here that the London side of the House closed down their Gold window a few years ago. The Rothschild House of Paris at one time was controlled by Amschel Rothschild who somehow at the age of 41 and apparently things going his way decided to end his life by hanging himself by his bathrobe belt by the towel rack in the bathroom. Amschel at the time was very busy getting ready for the upcoming gold backed launching of the Euro. The currencies of the twelve nations that would make up the Euro were trading at the equivalent of a $1.40 Euro today. Upon his death those currencies began their slide. The Paris side of the house gets much of its wealth from the mineral holdings that they have. Im not sure who runs the Paris side of the House these days, Amschel has a twenty something year old son. Clearly though the Paris House believes gold should be money. In the world of the media barons the Murdoch dynasty, which is clearly aligned with the London House of Rothschild, is having some problems of their own. Rupert appears to be having difficulty in handing over the empire to his own son James. This does lead one to ask the question, does the Paris side of the House have someone else in mind? Is there about to be a handover to somebody else? Now why is South Africa selling their gold in Rands and not dollars? Which House of Rothschild controls South Africas gold interests? Is it Paris? Or London? This brings up a lot of questions about why countries do what they do. Is China's recent interest in gold more of an appeasment to the House of Paris? Russia sits in a rather unique position in todays world having both an abundance of oil and an abundance of gold. Russia sure does seem to accommodate the interests of both sides of the Houses of Rothschild. The US is unfortunately not so lucky; the Bush Cartel clearly backs the London side of the House. Its certainly an interesting world when you view it as a war between one family and the House of London and the House of Paris. There were many wars in the past that it could be said were fought for the same reasons. This does make one ask one question though. So who exactly killed Amschel Rothschild?

--- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]... wrote: rovegate/cornwellgate/calabresegate http://www.sj-r.com/Sections/News/Stories/63233.asp Fees to Kjellander probed In investigation of pension fund for teachers By MIKE ROBINSONTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS Published Wednesday, August 10, 2005 CHICAGO - Federal prosecutors investigating corruption at a state pension fund have subpoenaed records concerning $4.5 million in fees a Washington-based investment firm is paying the new treasurer of the Republican National Committee, government sources confirmed Tuesday. The subpoena calls for documents related to the fund, the Carlyle Group and Robert Kjellander, said sources familiar with the investigation who spoke only on condition of anonymity, saying prosecutors want details of the probe kept secret. Kjellander, a Springfield-based lobbyist who headed President Bush's re-election campaign in three states, was named the RNC's treasurer over the weekend. Officials of the Illinois Teachers Retirement System expressed concern about the amount of finders fees Carlyle offered Kjellander for helping to land business with the pension fund - $3.1 million paid and $1.4 million due. "I believe that we were all taken aback when we learned of the size of his compensation for services to the Carlyle Group," said Jon Bauman, executive director of the pension fund. He said the amount would not be unusual if paid to a major firm that places such business, such as Merrill Lynch or Goldman Sachs, but is extraordinary for payment to a small operation. Neither the Carlyle Group nor Kjellander and his Springfield Consulting Group have been accused of any wrongdoing in connection with the investigation. Kjellander did not immediately return calls to his Springfield office Tuesday. Carlyle officials have been summoned to a pension board meeting in Chicago on Thursday to answer questions about the investment firm's relationship with Kjellander and the finders fees it is paying him. The subpoena was part of an ongoing federal investigation of corruption involving the fund, which pays the pensions of retired downstate and suburban teachers. A former fund trustee and two Chicago attorneys already are under indictment. One of the two lawyers, Joseph Cari Jr., is a former finance chairman of the Democratic National Committee. Carlyle spokesman Christopher Ullman said Kjellander's fees are in line with what such private equity firms usually pay to placement agents and that the pension funds investment in Carlyle is simply smart business. The average return on these funds is 45 percent per year, he said. Youre not going to get that out of an S&P fund. The pensioners and board are doing very well investing in Carlyle. He said Kjellander represents Carlyle before eight other public bodies in Illinois but declined to name them or say whether they have committed to investing with the firm. Cari was indicted one week ago along with Chicago attorney Steven Loren and millionaire political contributor Stuart P. Levine on charges of shaking down firms that sought to provide investments to the $30 billion teachers pension fund. Levine was a trustee for the fund. All three are to be arraigned today and are expected to plead not guilty, although Lorens attorney has said he is cooperating with the investigation. Bauman said teachers pension fund workers have found a January 2002 memo from Levine to a fund staff member, saying, Call me about this. Attached was a letter to Levine from a Carlyle official that said: At the request of Bob Kjellander, I enclose for your consideration four items concerning the Carlyle Group and more specifically Carlyle Venture Partners II. Kjellander was quoted in Tuesdays editions of the Chicago Tribune as saying he might have sent the board a background thing about Carlyle that indicated he would appreciate consideration of the investment firm. Thats part of my job, he said. My job was to say, Give these guys an opportunity to present their case. Kjellander - pronounced shuh-LAN-dur - is a member of the RNC and friend of presidential adviser Karl Rove. He was patronage chief under Gov. James Thompson. RNC spokesman Danny Diaz said the Republican group was aware of news reports concerning Kjellander and considers him an effective leader who can help advance the agenda of President Bush. The RNC is privileged to have such an accomplished and experienced individual in the treasurers position, Diaz said. The latest scrutiny of Kjellanders business dealings provided ammunition for state Sen. Steve Rauschenberger of Elgin, a Republican candidate for governor who has feuded with Kjellander and other party leaders. It may be legal but its not good public policy, Rauschenberger said during an unrelated news conference in Chicago. We shouldnt have a system where somebody gets a finders fee of several million d
[cia-drugs] Pentagon devising scenarios for martial law in US
Pentagon devising scenarios for martial law in US By Patrick Martin9 August 2005 According to a report published Monday by the Washington Post *, the Pentagon has developed its first ever war plans for operations within the continental United States, in which terrorist attacks would be used as the justification for imposing martial law on cities, regions or the entire country. The front-page article cites sources working at the headquarters of the militarys Northern Command (Northcom), located in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The plans themselves are classified, but officers who drafted the plans gave details to Post reporter Bradley Graham, who was recently given a tour of Northcom headquarters at Peterson Air Force Base. The article thus appears to be a deliberate leak conducted for the purpose of accustoming the American population to the prospect of military rule. According to Graham, the new plans provide for what several senior officers acknowledged is the likelihood that the military will have to take charge in some situations, especially when dealing with mass-casualty attacks that could quickly overwhelm civilian resources. The Post account declares, The war plans represent a historic shift for the Pentagon, which has been reluctant to become involved in domestic operations and is legally constrained from engaging in law enforcement. A total of 15 potential crisis scenarios are outlined, ranging from low-end, which Graham describes as relatively modest crowd-control missions, to high-end, after as many as three simultaneous catastrophic mass-casualty events, such as a nuclear, biological or chemical weapons attack. In each case, the military would deploy a quick-reaction force of as many as 3,000 troops per attacki.e., 9,000 total in the worst-case scenario. More troops could be made available as needed. The Post quotes a statement by Admiral Timothy J. Keating, head of Northcom: In my estimation, [in the event of] a biological, a chemical or nuclear attack in any of the 50 states, the Department of Defense is best positionedof the various eight federal agencies that would be involvedto take the lead. The newspaper describes an unresolved debate among the military planners on how to integrate the new domestic mission with ongoing US deployments in Iraq, Afghanistan and other foreign conflicts. One major document of over 1,000 pages, designated CONPLAN 2002, provides a general overview of air, sea and land operations in both a post-attack situation and for prevention and deterrence actions aimed at intercepting threats before they reach the United States. A second document, CONPLAN 0500, details the 15 scenarios and the actions associated with them. The Post reports: CONPLAN 2002 has passed a review by the Pentagons Joint Staff and is due to go soon to Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and top aides for further study and approval, the officers said. CONPLAN 0500 is still undergoing final drafting at Northcom headquarters. While Northcom was established only in October 2002, its headquarters staff of 640 is already larger than that of the Southern Command, which overseas US military operations throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. About 1,400 National Guard troops have been formed into a dozen regional response units, while smaller quick-reaction forces have been set up in each of the 50 states. Northcom also has the power to mobilize four active-duty Army battalions, as well as Navy and Coast Guard ships and air defense fighter jets. The Pentagon is acutely conscious of the potential political backlash as its role in future security operations becomes known. Graham writes: Military exercises code-named Vital Archer, which involve troops in lead roles, are shrouded in secrecy. By contrast, other homeland exercises featuring troops in supporting roles are widely publicized. Military lawyers have studied the legal implications of such deployments, which risk coming into conflict with a longstanding congressional prohibition on the use of the military for domestic policing, known as posse comitatus. Involving the National Guard, which is exempt from posse comitatus, could be one solution, Admiral Keating told the Post. He cited a potential situation in which Guard units might begin rounding up people while regular forces could not, Graham wrote. Graham adds: when it comes to ground forces possibly taking a lead role in homeland operations, senior Northcom officers remain reluctant to discuss specifics. Keating said such situations, if they arise, probably would be temporary, with lead responsibility passing back to civilian authorities. A remarkable phrase: probably would be temporary. In other words, the military takeover might not be temporary, and could become permanent! In his article, Graham describes the Northern Commands Combined Intelligence and Fusion Center, which joins military analysts with
[cia-drugs] Casey Sheehan Was Murdered: Vice President Of The National Lawyers Guild
Casey Sheehan Was Murdered: Vice President Of The National Lawyers Guild Marjorie Cohn is a professor at Thomas Jefferson School of Law, executive vice president of the National Lawyers Guild, and the US representative to the executive committee of the American Association of Jurists. The Murder of Casey Sheehan By Marjorie Cohn Friday 12 August 2005 For seven days, Cindy Sheehan has been camped down the road from George Bush's Crawford ranch where the President is on a five-week vacation. Cindy says she will never enjoy a vacation again. Her heart is broken. Her precious son Casey was murdered in George Bush's war on Iraq. Cindy Sheehan is a patient woman. She will wait until Bush comes out and talks to her. She will wait until the man who ordered the invasion of a country that posed no threat to us explains why Casey did not die in vain. Her skin parched by the blazing sun, her throat inflamed from the intermittent rains and the 200 interviews she has given, Cindy will wait. I first met Cindy at a support rally in San Diego for Pablo Paredes, who was on trial for refusing to deploy with a ship that was loaded with 300 Marines and bound for Iraq. "I was told my son was killed in the war on terror," Cindy told the crowd. "He was killed by George Bush's war of terror on the world." People wept quietly as they viewed Casey's baby picture. Cindy always carries it with her. Camilo Mejia also came to support Pablo at his court-martial. The son of the famed Sandinista troubadour Carlos Mejia Godoy, Camilo had lived in three countries in two years before coming to the United States. He joined the US Army because he was promised an education, a community, camaraderie, and friendship. But after five months in Iraq, where he witnessed the killing of innocent civilians as well as his own comrades, in a war he came to believe was illegal, Camilo refused to return to Iraq. He was court-martialed, convicted of desertion with intent to avoid hazardous duty, and served nine months in prison. Camilo accompanied Cindy and nine other veterans to Crawford on the Impeachment Tour bus. The harassment started as soon as they arrived, Camilo told me. The sheriffs warned Cindy she would be arrested if she didn't walk in the 3-foot ditch on the side of the road. "It was horrible," Camilo said. "It was right next to a barbed wire fence; the terrain was uneven." The cops and the reporters walked on the road, but Cindy and her supporters had to walk in the ditch.

[cia-drugs] See Cyndy Sheehan's Ad Message To The Fueher Here NOW
See Cyndy Sheehan's Ad Message To The Fueher Here NOW Mother of fallen soldier asks questions of President Bush John Byrne August 11, 2005 The below ad, paid for by Gold Star Families for Peace, will air on Crawford cable channels near Bush's ranch. The total ad buy is currently $15,000. The group plans to air the ad throughout August and wherever Bush visits during his vacation. Sheehan's son, Casey, was an Army mechanic who was killed just five days after arriving in Iraq. "He was only 24 and he died in his best friends arms," Sheehan says in the ad, directed at President Bush. "Casey was so good and so honest why cant you be honest with us?" "You were wrong about the weapons of mass destruction-you were wrong about the link between Iraq and Al Quedayou lied to us and because of your lies my son died," she ads. While not a big ad buy, the ad is likely to get picked up by network and cable television news programs. Like the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, which savaged Sen. John Kerry's (D-MA) presidential campaign, the reporting on the ad may draw more attention than the ad itself. The ad comes a day after a press conference with Sheehan and 13 other military family members from across the country, including seven mothers whose sons were killed in Iraq, and shortly after a blogger conference call that generated buzz and got a mention in the Washington Post.

[cia-drugs] Brazilian military had plans to build atomic bomb
http://www.mercopress.com/Detalle.asp?NUM=6205Tuesday, 09 AugustBrazilian military had plans to build atomic bombFormer Brazilian president Jose Sarney revealed that the militarydictatorship that ruled Brazil for two decades (1964/1985) had plans tobuild an atomic bomb but the initiative was discarded once democracy wasrestored in the country.Mr. J. SarneyIt had long been suspected that the Brazilian military were very much intentin developing atomic energy and the bomb, but this is the first time it hasbeen confirmed.Mr. Sarney, the first elected civilian to rule Brazil following thedictatorship said in an interview Sunday on the O'Globo television net thathe first heard of the project when he was informed of a very deep drill inthe northern state of Para apparently for underground atomic testing.Mr. Sarney became president in 1985 following the death of Tancredo Neveswho had been nominated president by Congress, following a gradual democraticopening agreed with the military. Mr. Sarney ruled for five years until 1989and is currently Senator.The former president added he found out about the atomic bomb plan a yearafter taking office when the National Security Council informed him of theexistence of the testing grounds in Cachimbo, state of Para."I was taken by surprise. At the same time I was concerned about the fact itshould not become public news because it would interfere with the closerelations we were building with Argentina", revealed Mr. Sarney.Actually in August 1986 the Brazilian press reported that drilling workswere taking place in the Cachimbo sierra with the purpose of atomicunderground testing.The president Sarney replied at the time, "that issue has not been on mydesk", but nineteen years later he admits having misled Brazilian publicopinion."I ordered the Security Council chairman to immediately seal whatever theywere drilling in Cachimbo and simultaneously announce that the purpose wasto store nuclear waste".Mr. Sarney said that at the time Argentina and Brazil, political rivals inthe region for decades were looking for closer relations, and admitting theexistence of the underground testing area would have been interpreted "wewere in a nuclear race"."The Argentines were also involved in nuclear activities, but as happenedwith Brazil they also denied it".Finally in 1991 Argentine president Carlos Menem and his Braziliancounterpart Fernando Collor de Melo signed an agreement for the peaceful useof nuclear energy.According to Mr. Sarney, during negotiations Brazil became aware thatArgentina was ten years ahead in nuclear research.

[cia-drugs] The Paradise Lost and Stollen
Dear Friends, Peace and Justice For All, Location map of Diego Garcia Overhead view of Diego Garcia Diego Garcia is a 44 square kilometre (17 square mile) atoll located in the heart of the Indian Ocean. It is the largest of fifty-two islands which form the Chagos Archipelago. It was a British Overseas Territory, part of the Britsih Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT). It is situated some 1,600 kilometres (1,000 miles) south of India's southern coast. The atoll was covered in luxuriant tropical vegetation, with little sign left of the copra and coconut plantations that used to cover it. The island is 60 kilometres long, with a maximum elevation of 7 metres (22 feet), and nearly encloses a lagoon some 20 kilometres long and up to 9 kilometres wide. Depths in the lagoon range from 20 to 30 metres, while numerous coral heads extend toward the surface and form hazards to navigation. Shallow reefs surround the island on the ocean side as well as within the lagoon. The channel and anchorage area are dredged, while the old turning basin can also be used if depth is sufficient for ship type. In quiet waters of the lagoon, the brilliantly coloured tropical fish can be admired. This is a description of a Paradise - a Paradise on Earth, which was home to Sylvester, and eighty year old man, whom I met in the slums of a filthy, rat-infested shanty town in Port Luis, Mauritius. The old man was picking food from the garbage bins - stooped, unshaven, hungry, thirsty, sick and smelly - no home, no family, no life. He, once had a life, a family and a beautiful home with a farm, chickens, horses and livestock. He was a rich man and he lived in a Paradise - the Paradise on Earth known as Diego Garcia. Suddenly that Paradise was gone and lost - stollen by the savages from countries that call themselves 'civilised' - the USA and UK. This is a fascinating, illuminating and harrowing story of the people of Diego Garciae, as told by Mr John Pilger, in his Award Winning Documentary. The story highlihts the barbarism of the British and Americans - and they call themselves 'democracies.' Sylvester and his generation will soon die in the slums of Mauritius - sans justice, sans love, sans home! They have lived so many years on hope and even that, today,is stolen from them. Mr Pilger says, "there are times when one tragedy, one crime tells us how a whole system works behind its democratic facade and helps us to understand how much of the world is run for the benefit of the powerful and how governments lie. To understand the catastrophe of Iraq, and all the other Iraq's along imperial history's trail of blood and tears, one need look no further than Diego Garcia." My friends, please, read Mr John Pilger's account and raise your voice against thuggery, savagery and treachery of the superpowers, USA and UK. May love and justice prevail, Dr Homi Wadia 1.

[cia-drugs] U.S., Venezuela clash over drug trafficking
POT TO CALL KETTLE BLACK, news at ten. -vmann http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/12363621.htm U.S., Venezuela clash over drug traffickingThe U.S. revoked visas of three senior military officials as relations between the two countries grew increasingly tense.BY PHIL GUNSONSpecial to The Herald CARACAS - The U.S. government has revoked the visas of two Venezuelan generals, including the head of a counter-drug unit, and a third officer who have been linked to drug trafficking allegations, U.S. officials confirmed Thursday. The news came four days after leftist President Hugo Chávez said he was ending cooperation with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, accusing it of ``using the war on drugs as a cover, even to support drug trafficking, [and] to gather intelligence in Venezuela against the government.'' U.S. relations with Chávez have grown increasingly tense amid Washington complaints that he has turned to authoritarian ways and become a destabilizing factor in Latin America. In turn, he has accused the Bush administration of plotting to topple him. The latest spat could lead the U.S. government to deny its annual recertification, due next month, that Venezuela is collaborating in the U.S. war on drugs. Decertification can mean the loss of U.S. financial assistance. But according to the U.S. embassy, Caracas receives no such aid, leaving Washington without financial leverage against Chávez. ''I was already thinking of decertification as more than likely'' for Venezuela, said John Walsh, a specialist in Andean drug policy at the Washington Office on Latin America, a liberal think tank. ''It suits interests on both sides, so I wouldn't be surprised if there is decertification,'' he added. VISAS REVOKED U.S. Embassy press officer Salomé Hernández confirmed Thursday that the U.S. government had revoked the visas of Gen. Frank Morgado, who heads the National Guard's counter-drug unit; Gen. Alexis Maneiro, who heads the Guard's academy, and Guard Maj. Irán Moisés Salas. Hernández declined to reveal further details. But a report in the daily El Universal said their visas had been revoked ''for their lack of cooperation, complicity and obstruction'' in several drug cases. A parliamentary commission recently called for Maneiro to be suspended from duty and investigated in connection with the murder last year of a provincial politician and newspaper columnist who had accused him of links to known traffickers. Salas was little known until the Universal story. Morgado's appointment to head the Guard's counter-drug unit coincided with a sharp decline in Venezuelan cooperation with U.S. investigations, U.S. officials have complained. Efforts to contact the three failed. DEA REMAINS Despite Chávez's Sunday announcement, there has been no formal move to end the DEA presence here, although specific cooperation agreements with the National Guard are suspended. Among the reasons given by the government for ending the cooperation is the alleged existence of an entire floor in the Venezuelan government's drug-fighting CONACUID agency headquarters operated exclusively by the DEA and to which Venezuelans were denied access. ''The day they give me a floor at the CIA, I'll give them a floor in my [building],'' Interior Minister Jesse Chacón said Thursday. The allegation is denied by both U.S. and Venezuelan officials familiar with the operation. ''The DEA didn't even have a coordinator there,'' said a former CONACUID employee who asked to remain anonymous for fear of government retribution. Chacón, who referred to the United States as ``the empire", said Venezuela was ready to continue working with the DEA, ``if they accept Venezuelan parameters". Earlier Thursday, U.S. Ambassador William Brownfield rejected the accusations by Gen. Melvin López Hidalgo, one of Venezuela's most senior generals, that the DEA was involved in drug-trafficking. Brownfield said cooperation between the DEA and Venezuela had been ''excellent'' for 30 years, but that, ``for reasons I can't identify, that collaboration has declined a good deal this year.'' He told the Venezuelan media that visas could be revoked due to suspected, ``participation in illicit activities related to drug-trafficking".

[cia-drugs] Laura Rozen, "Curt Weldon's Deep Throat"
http://www.prospect.org/web/page.ww?section=root&name=ViewWeb&articleId=9836 Curt Weldon's Deep Throat The Pennsylvania Republican’s freelance spying has once again brought a discredited arms dealer's fabrications to the CIA. By Laura Rozen Web Exclusive: 06.10.05 Print Friendly | Email Article Countdown to Terror, Representative Curt Weldon's sensationalistic new book about his personal struggle to combat the Iranian terrorism threat despite the alleged resistance of the CIA, is based entirely on the Pennsylvania Republican's freelance communications with a secret source he code-named "Ali." Much of Weldon's book, which will be released next week by Regnery Publishing, consists of reproduced pages of comically overwrought "intelligence" memos faxed from the Iranian émigré’s Paris location to Weldon’s office between 2003 and 2004. “Dear Curt,” reads one memo excerpt from “Ali” published by Weldon. “An attack against an atomic plant by a plane, the name mentioned, but not clear it begins with ‘SEA’ … [Seattle?].” Another reads: “Dear Curt: … I confirm again a terrorist attack within the United States is planned before the American elections." But in an exclusive interview with The American Prospect, Weldon's "Ali" -- who was identified in an April article by me and Jeet Heer as Fereidoun Mahdavi, a frail, elderly former minister of commerce in the shah’s government and a longtime business associate of Iran-Contra arms dealer Manucher Ghorbanifar -- said he was stunned and perplexed to learn that Weldon had used his information to write a book, emphasizing that Weldon never even told him about the book. Mahdavi also said that the bulk of the information that he had provided to Weldon was originally sourced from none other than Ghorbanifar, the subject of a rare CIA “burn notice” after the agency found him to be a "fabricator" more than two decades ago during the Iran-Contra affair. “Many information that I have given to Weldon is coming from Ghorbanifar,” said Mahdavi, who was reached in Paris by telephone on June 6. “Because Ghorbanifar used me, in fact, to pass that stuff because I know he has problems in Washington.” The former minister continued: “I am well-known in Tehran. How can I call Tehran? But Ghorbanifar is something else. He has all the contacts within Iran. Nobody has so many information and contacts that he has. Now if he is using that information through me to try to buy power indirectly, that is his business. I do it because I have known him for many years.” Several Iranian exile associates of the pair have told the Prospect that Mahdavi, living in reduced circumstances and caring for his cancer-stricken wife, is in fact financially dependent on Ghorbanifar. They have been involved in various businesses together, from petroleum shipping to arms dealing to (more recently) intelligence peddling, since both washed up in Paris after the Iranian revolution in 1979. Although Mahdavi expresses understanding of the motives of his old pal and business partner Ghorbanifar, he says he is utterly baffled by Weldon’s decision to use his information as the foundation of a book that the congressman never once mentioned to him. “I assume that if [Weldon] wanted to publish a book, I assure you I would have heard it,” Mahdavi said initially, in disbelief that Weldon would publish the book without even a phone call. “I am just surprised that you tell me he has a book coming out … .” Hours later, after receiving a fax with a Congressional Quarterly article about Weldon’s forthcoming book and the amazon.com book description, Mahdavi spoke again in shock and anger. “Someone is using me for their purposes,” he raged. “How is it possible that something like that book comes out and the people who publish it don’t inform me? Don’t you think that’s strange? What I cannot understand is, if you had not called me and told me there is a book coming out from Weldon, I would have never known about it. You informed me. But this is now, I am sure, there is a fight between all these [U.S. government] organizations, and they are using this issue and using me.” Among those who agree is the former senior CIA official who met with Mahdavi in response to Weldon’s pressure on the agency to accept the Mahdavi/Ghorbanifar information. The tale of "Ali" suggests that the agency is assiduously seeking to weed out another fabricator like Ghorbanifar (or Iraqi fabulist Ahmad Chalabi) from corrupting U.S. intelligence information on Iran. Bill Murray, a former CIA station chief in Paris, met with me on June 9 at a northern Virginia shopping mall to talk about Weldon's assault on the agency. Still doing contract work for the CIA since his recent retirement, Murray chose to speak up about the agency’s role in vetting and determining “Ali’s” information to be fabrications -- “émigré babble" -- because Weldon has publicly savaged the CIA in his book. By speaking with reporters, Murray believes he could be risking his

Re: [cia-drugs] Atta Intelligence Omitted From Report
This story focuses on Atta being in New York in 1999, without mentioning that he was in Florida in August 2001 smuggling heroin for Air America and being funded by orders of JFK hit man Porter Goss' 911 surrogate, Pak intel General Mahmud Ahmad. While Atta was smuggling heroin for Richard Secord's Air America in Florida, Richard Secord had been in Uzbekhistan, north of Afghanistan, for two years, setting up Air America in another off the map zone like Vietnam-era Laos. -Bob Max Robinson wrote: And we know this wasn't all that was omitted. Madd Maxx- Atta Intelligence Omitted From Report By KIMBERLY HEFLING, Associated Press Writer1 hour, 16 minutes ago http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050812/ap_on_go_co/sept_11_hijackers_22&printer=1;_ylt=Av97T4CDpYtFFK9Ks1PAbEOMwfIE;_ylu=X3oDMTA3MXN1bHE0BHNlYwN0bWE- The Sept. 11 commission knew military intelligence officials had identified lead hijacker Mohamed Atta as a member of al-Qaida who might be part of U.S.-based terror cell more than a year before the terror attacks but decided not to include that in its final report, a spokesman acknowledged Thursday. Al Felzenberg, spokesman for the commission's follow-up project called the 9/11 Public Discourse Project, had said earlier this week that the panel was unaware of intelligence specifically naming Atta. But he said subsequent information provided Wednesday confirmed that the commission had been aware of the intelligence. The information did not make it into the final report because it was not consistent with what the commission knew about Atta's whereabouts before the attacks, Felzenberg said. The intelligence about Atta recently was disclosed by Rep. Curt Weldon (news, bio, voting record), vice chairman of the House Armed Services and Homeland Security committees. The Pennsylvania Republican has expressed anger that the intelligence never was forwarded by the military establishment to the FBI. The discourse project, Pentagon and at least two congressional committees are looking into the issue. If found accurate, the intelligence would change the timeline for when government officials first became aware of Atta's links to al-Qaida. According to Weldon, a classified military intelligence unit called "Able Danger" identified Atta and three other hijackers in 1999 as potential members of a terrorist cell in New York City. Weldon said Pentagon lawyers rejected the unit's recommendation that the information be turned over to the FBI in 2000. According to Pentagon documents, the information was not shared because of concerns about pursuing information on "U.S. persons," a legal term that includes U.S. citizens as well as foreigners legally admitted to the country. Felzenberg said an unidentified person working with Weldon came forward Wednesday and described a meeting 10 days before the panel's report was issued last July. During it, a military official urged commission staffers to include a reference to the intelligence on Atta in the final report. Felzenberg said checks were made and the details of the July 12, 2004, meeting were confirmed. Previous to that, Felzenberg said it was believed commission staffers knew about Able Danger from a meeting with military officials in Afghanistan during which no mention was made of Atta or the other three hijackers. Staff members now are searching documents in the National Archives to look for notes from the meeting in Afghanistan and any other possible references to Atta and Able Danger, Felzenberg said. Felzenberg sought to minimize the significance of the new information. "Even if it were valid, it would've joined the lists of dozens of other instances where information was not shared," Felzenberg said. "There was a major problem with intelligence sharing." Weldon on Wednesday wrote to Thomas Kean, chairman of the 9/11 commission, and Lee Hamilton, the vice chairman, asking for information to be sought that would look at why the information was not passed on by Pentagon lawyers to the FBI. His letter also asks the commissioners to find out why the panel's staff members did not pass the information about Able Danger onto commission members and provide full documentation. Kansas Sen. Pat Roberts (news, bio, voting record), chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, and his House counterpart, Michigan Rep. Peter Hoekstra (news, bio, voting record), are looking into the issue. ___ On the Net: 9/11 Discourse Project: http://www.9-11pdp.org/ -- For liberty in our lifetimes, by ANY means necessary, REVOLUTION NOW!

Markets were also supported by a warning from the International Energy Agency (IEA) that crude output from non-Opec countries such as Russia and Norway had been disappointing.

Oil prices have now risen almost 10% this month and nearly 120% since spring last year, driven by soaring demand from the United States and China at a time when producers have struggled to pump more oil. This has pushed up petrol prices at the pump to records on both sides of the Atlantic and makes the £1 litre a real possibility in Britain. In the US, where fuel duty is much lower, prices have risen to the equivalent of about 35p a litre. Motorists' groups the AA here, and the equivalent AAA in America, yesterday warned drivers to brace themselves for higher prices as rises in crude prices take several weeks to feed through to the pump. An AA spokesman said prices yesterday were at an average of 90.3p for unleaded and 94.1p for diesel and he urged British drivers to economise on fuel. "Motorists should start to help themselves.
