[cia-drugs] The Experts Say: It's a Police State
The Experts Say: It's a Police State Written by Chris Floyd Monday, 11 September 2006 Critics of the policies of George W. Bush are often greeted with this response: "Who are you to denounce the president? Don't you think he's privy to more information than you are? Don't you think he has all kinds of experts giving him the full picture, which you will never know?"OK, fair enough. Let's see what the experts -- those privy to the full picture, to the secret intelligence, those long schooled in policy and analysis -- have to say. For example, what does the man who was George W. Bush's director of homeland defense on the National Security Council on September 11, 2001, think of the "war on terror" launched by George W. Bush after September 11, 2001?He thinks Bush has exploited the attack to install a police state in America, that's what George W. Bush's director of homeland defense on September 11, 2001, thinks. But let Tom Maertens speak for himself, as he does most directly in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune (via Cursor): Five years after 9/11, it's clear that the Bush administration's costly War on Terror has failed on two counts. It has undermined our civil liberties and made the world more dangerous. The direct cost of the war in Iraq, according to Joseph Stiglitz, a Nobel economist, has already exceeded $1 trillion, including long-term veterans' care and similar costs. Along with the war has come enormous destruction and loss of life, and major damage to our international standing. And there are more terrorists in the world than ever before, a fact the administration plays up to curtail our freedoms. In the aftermath of 9/11, the administration succeeded in passing an extreme version of an internal security law, called the USA Patriot Act. It permits secret arrests, sneak and peek searches, and obtaining bank, credit, library and Internet records, all without a warrant. The administration also instituted wiretaps and intercepts on millions of Americans' e-mail messages and phone calls without warrants, a program recently ruled unconstitutional by a federal court.In 2005, Bush quietly created the National Clandestine Service, which authorizes the CIA to operate within the United States -- despite past abuses such as Operation Chaos -- and reinstituted domestic spying by the military through the Counter Intelligence Field Activity (CIFA), in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act. He also created the National Security Service, putting elements of the FBI under his direct control, the closest we have had to a secret police agency in our 200-year history. The FBI now sends out 30,000 National Security Letters per year, demanding personal information without benefit of a warrant. It has imposed gag orders on every aspect of NSLs, making it illegal to reveal that one has been received. How does this differ from secret police tactics?… Perhaps no event demonstrates more clearly the dangerous authoritarianism of the Bush crowd than the arrest of two American citizens, Jose Padilla and Yasir Hamdi, who were held for 3½ years in solitary confinement with no charges, no court appearance and no lawyer. The Bush administration declared them "enemy combatants" -- Enemies of the State -- and threw them in prison indefinitely, just like a Third World dictatorship. Winston Churchill once said: "The power of the executive to cast a man into prison without formulating any charge known to the law, and particularly to deny him the judgment of his peers, is in the highest degree odious, and the foundation of all totalitarian government whether Nazi or Communist."How far can the Bush administration go? Steven Bradbury of the Justice Department recently suggested before a congressional committee that the president might have the power to order the killing of terrorist suspects inside the United States. Government assassination squads? In America?… James Madison once warned: "If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy." The Bush administration has already exploited the war in Iraq and fears about terrorism to stampede the American people into accepting an astonishing curtailment of their freedoms and growing lawlessness by the government. If the administration chooses to engage in the neocons' endless, global War for Civilization, American democracy will ultimately be one of the casualties. http://www.chris-floyd.com/index.php?option=com_contenttask=viewid=841Itemid=135 Criminalizing speech to protect secrets Posted by pjwalker911 The impact of an official secrets act would be particularly acute for the press.

[cia-drugs] Criminalizing speech to protect secrets
Criminalizing speech to protect secrets Inside the First Amendment By Paul K. McMasters First Amendment Center ombudsman 08.13.06 When members of the House of Representatives take up crucial intelligence bills, the vast majority elect not to read the classified portions — which is to say the really important parts — and they don’t sign up for classified briefings on the bills’ provisions. Which means they essentially are voting blind, even on those bills they approve overwhelmingly. Why? Not because they’re too busy or they don’t care. It’s because they are afraid. In an article on its survey of House members published this past weekend, The Boston Globe reported that our elected representatives face “an untenable choice” on intelligence bills: “Either consent to a review process so secretive that they could never mention anything about it in House debates, under the threat of prosecution, or vote on classified provisions they knew nothing about. Most chose to know nothing.” As a result, members are reluctant to discuss such matters with one another, their staffs or outside experts. That frequently translates into no real or relevant public debate on issues increasingly crucial since the war on terrorism began. More and more, our lawmakers and the public depend on press accounts based on unauthorized disclosures, or leaks, for information on national security. But that vital information flow continues to be threatened by a concerted crackdown on leakers and journalists. The latest is legislation introduced Aug. 2 by Sen. Kit Bond, R-Mo., that would criminalize the disclosure of classified information. Bond was joined by 11 fellow Republicans as co-sponsors in offering up what has become known as an “official secrets act.” Word for word, this is the legislation that caused President Clinton to veto the entire intelligence authorization act in 2000. A year later, the Senate Intelligence Committee declined to act on the same bill. Congress has for more than half a century rejected similar versions of this effort to criminalize leaks. The Supreme Court warned in 1971 that its ruling in the Pentagon Papers case might have been different if such a criminal statute had been on the books. For a multitude of reasons, this bill has been deemed too dangerous for democracy. It is unnecessary, it is a threat to First Amendment rights and it is an affront to responsible governing. Current law already criminalizes the most dangerous of leaks: identities of covert agents, capabilities and intelligence regarding communications and restricted data concerning nuclear weapons. Administrative discipline and loss of security clearances or jobs await those within government who disclose other classified information. This proposal would expand the definition of what is properly classified. It would require no intent to benefit our enemies. It would require no proof of damage to our security. It would leave the public dependent on official announcements and “authorized leaks” designed to bolster official policies and influence public opinion. And it would cast a debilitating pall over free speech, the free flow of information and government accountability. There has been a startling expansion of secrecy in the past five years. It has become very difficult to find out about, let alone challenge, important actions and policies concerning our security. Executive-branch officials have thrown up a daunting array of obstacles for citizens and lawmakers: overclassification, misclassification, reclassification and pseudo-classification. Even congressional committees and independent commissions with a lot of clout find it difficult to get over the administration’s stone walls. Meanwhile, alternative sources of information — whistleblowers and journalists — are hounded, harassed and threatened with jail. Equally important, this law would chill the speech of a host of other important speakers in public discourse: elected and appointed officials at all levels of government, scholars, lobbyists and public-interest groups. Even former government officials, never sure what is classified or reclassified, would be vulnerable to prosecution for their writing, teaching or other public activities. The impact of an official secrets act would be particularly acute for the press. Though the sponsors of the act insist that the press is not targeted, the potential harm is great. The law would authorize grand jury subpoenas for journalists and search warrants for their records and notes. It could make them witnesses to and possible co-conspirators in a criminal act. They could be hauled before a grand jury and forced to reveal their sources — or go to jail. Right on the heels of the official secrets act proposal, a federal judge on Aug. 9 issued another chilling threat to journalists’ ability to inform public debate. Judge T.S. Ellis III allowed the Justice Department to proceed with its

The most recent articles, which make up this avalanche, originate far away from the Middle East : one is from the USA, the other is from Argentina. Let us start with the one from Argentina. Republished by axisoflogic.com the article titled, War in the Middle East: A Warning for Argentina, is by Argentinian journalist, Adrian Salbuchi. Here is how the article describes the outcome of the most recent Zionist war crimes in Palestine and in Lebanon, http:// www.axisoflogic.com/artman/publish/article_22958.shtml : To traditional hatred Muslim peoples feel towards the State of Israel - - which they perceive as an aggressive intruder in their region, martirizing Palestinians and Lebanese - today we add the overwhelming condemnation of global public opinion against flagrant Israeli barbarism committed in Lebanon and Gaza. They indiscriminately bombed, killed and maimed men, women and children, and used illegal weapons including thousands of banned cluster-bombs and white phosphorus explosives, as UN reports confirm. It was foolish and contradictory that Israel showed-off saying they used precision bombs and intelligent weapons, when the plain truth is that they repeatedly and systematically bombed caravans of refugee-carrying motor vehicles, civilian apartment blocks, schools, hospitals, civilian-filled shelters, and even went so far as to repeatedly bomb UN watchposts in broad daylight, killing their personnel. Either their bombs were not all that intelligent, far worse, these were purposely committed crimes against humanity perpetrated with the aim of spreading terror amongst Israel's enemies, which is a traditional tactic of the Israeli Armed Forces and their predecessor guerrilla organizations. The author, who has done his study of zionism, and of the zionist apartheid regime of Israel (although not necessarily of Noam Chomsky and his Zionist Cronies), points to facts which show that zionism is not only a danger to the Arabs of the Middle East, but also to his own country, Argentina. He reminds his readers of Herzl's old plan of establishing his zionist state in Argentina (if Palestine or Uganda cannot be taken over for that purpose). He also points to the recent aquisition of large tracts of lands in Argentina by zionists, and he warns his people and government of the zionist dangers, if they continue their complacency towards zionism. At end of the article, the author presents a list of 10 questions to Israeli zionists. Here are some of them : Question No. 2: Why do Zionists purposefully harm Jewish communities in the Diaspora? As an Argentine citizen, I am concerned at the fact that Zionists and Israelis confuse Zionism with Judaism on purpose, because this can potentially lead to very negative and unjust reactions on the part of vast population sectors the world over who, ignoring this key differentiation between Zionists and Jews, might end up blaming all Jews for the carnage, injustice and
[cia-drugs] Secretary of the Air Force wants to test high-power microwave weapons on American citizens
Secretary of the Air Force wants to test high-power microwave weapons on American citizens September 14, 2006Posted by pjwalker911 Nonlethal weapons such as high-power microwave devices should be used on American citizens in crowd-control situations before being used on the battlefield, the Air Force secretary said Tuesday.The object is basically public relations. Domestic use would make it easier to avoid questions from others about possible safety considerations, said Secretary Michael Wynne. “If we’re not willing to use it here against our fellow citizens, then we should not be willing to use it in a wartime situation,” said Wynne. “(Because) if I hit somebody with a nonlethal weapon and they claim that it injured them in a way that was not intended, I think that I would be vilified in the world press.” The Air Force has paid for research into nonlethal weapons, but he said the service is unlikely to spend more money on development until injury problems are reviewed by medical experts and resolved. Nonlethal weapons generally can weaken people if they are hit with the beam. cnn.com ~~~ The lie machine September 13, 2006 Posted by pjwalker911 With security becoming an increasingly important issue, particularly in airports, researchers are looking into low-cost ways of remotely and rapidly monitoring people answering routine questions at check-in desks, for example. One idea is to scan people’s faces with a high-definition thermal camera that detects tiny changes in the heat of the capillaries under a person’s skin. A computer rapidly analyses any changes, picking up tell-tale signs that someone is fibbing. The US Department of Defense is seeking ideas for the development of technology that can tell from a distance if someone is exhibiting signs of stress. The idea would be to beam microwaves or lasers at a person.The reflected beams would carry information about the person’s physiological state, such as breathing rate, similar to the information gathered during a polygraph test. Experts point out that such a system presents serious practical difficulties, however. news.independent.co.uk __._,_.___ Complete archives at http://www.sitbot.net/ Please let us stay on topic and be civil.

But it seems to me that the biggest issue of our time is getting very short shrift from the politicians, and thats the fact that the very character of the United States is changing, and not for the better. One of the things that stands out in my mind amid the memories of the carnage and chaos of Sept. 11, 2001, is the eerie quiet an almost prayerful quiet that hovered over a scene on the western edge of Manhattan that afternoon. I stood for a long time outside the triage center that had been set up at the Chelsea Piers sports and entertainment complex. Sunlight glistened off the roofs of ambulances lined up in military fashion on the West Side Highway. Doctors, nurses and other medical personnel were standing by, waiting for what they thought would be the arrival of legions of seriously wounded victims in need of emergency care. There seemed to be very little talking. As I recall, most of the people maintained a kind of stunned, awed silence.

Abdallah Jumah, president and CEO of the state-owned Saudi Arabian Oil Company, better known as Aramco, said the world has potentially 4.5 trillion barrels in reserves - enough to last 140 years at current levels of consumption.

If consumption rises about two per cent a year from today's levels of about 85 million barrels a day, the low end of that range would only be enough to last until 2070. Rex Tillerson, the chairman of Exxon Mobil, has said that world demand for oil will increase by 50 per cent in the next decade.

[cia-drugs] Fw: [osint] Syria's defense of U.S. embassy doesn't make it an ally in terror war
- Original Message - From: Bruce Tefft [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Bruce Tefft [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 1:58 PM Subject: [osint] Syria's defense of U.S. embassy doesn't make it an ally in terror war Especially when they were behind the attack in the first place. Bruce http://www.mcall.com/news/opinion/all-editorial1sep14,0,2607835.story?coll=a ll-opiniontop-hed Syria's defense of U.S. embassy doesn't make it an ally in terror war When does a foe become a friend? What do terrorist attacks against Americans in another country say about the war on terrorism? What do those attacks say about the efficacy of our foreign policy in the Middle East? The foiled terrorist attack on the U.S. embassy in Damascus, Syria, raised all these questions. A small band of Islamic militants linked to an al-Qaida splinter group assaulted the embassy Tuesday with hand grenades, automatic weapons and a truck bomb. Syrian guards shot and killed three of the attackers immediately. The driver of the truck bomb, which never detonated, died of gunshot wounds he received when he tried to flee. None of the Americans at the embassy were wounded. The Bush administration was in the unusual position of thanking a government it often criticizes for its own destabilizing influence. ''I do think that the Syrians reacted to this attack in a way that helped secure our people, and we very much appreciate that,'' said Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. White House spokesman Tony Snow offered Syria an invitation ''to become an ally'' in the war on terrorism as Libya has rather than ''harboring'' and ''fomenting'' terrorists and terrorism. You might call that opening the door a crack with considerable caution. Historically, U.S. officials have branded Syria as a sponsor of terrorism and a proven enemy of Israel. For years the Syrians controlled affairs in Lebanon, treating it almost as a puppet state until they were implicated in the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri in 2005. More recently, it was accused of helping arm Hezbollah in southern Lebanon in Hezbollah's fight with Israel. Rather than accept the White House's backhanded invitation, the Syrian government responded that it only did its duty under the Geneva Convention, adding the U.S. would do well to consider the ''root causes of terrorism and broker a comprehensive peace in the Middle East.'' Meanwhile, U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan, on a tour of 10 of the region's capitals, including Damascus, said the area's leaders consider the U.S. involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan ''a disaster.'' Why? Because the unrest it has caused threatens some of their regimes. Some of these nations are U.S. allies in the so-called war on terror - Egypt, Turkey and Jordan. All have secular governments. Some come closer to being democratic than others. Some, like Syria, have reason to be concerned about discontented populations unhappy about how their governments treat them. One event doesn't make Syria a friend. And those who say terrorist attacks there, rather than here, are an indication that we're doing better in the war on terror can't deny the attacks are still happening. As far as whether U.S. policies in the Middle East are working? Well, the region has been in turmoil a long time and there's still no lasting peace and none in sight.

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2006-09/14/content_5091560.htm First deputy chairman of Russian central bank shot dead Andrei Kozlov (File Photo)Photo Gallery MOSCOW, Sept. 14 (Xinhua) -- Russian Central Bank First Deputy Chairman Andrei Kozlov had died of gunshot injuries early Thursday morning, a hospital official said. Kozlov was attacked in Oleny Val Street at about 9 p.m. local time (1700 GMT) on Wednesday and had received severe wounds to his head, chest and stomach. He was taken to hospital unconscious and died at about 5 a.m. local time (0100 GMT) Thursday, the official was quoted by the Interfax news agency as saying. His driver was also killed in the attack that was carried out by two unidentified gunmen who fled after the shooting. Moscow police have launched a massive hunt for the gunmen. Kozlov, 41, had been first deputy chairman of the Central Bank since 2002, and held the same position in 1997-1999. __._,_.___ Complete archives at http://www.sitbot.net/ Please let us stay on topic and be civil.

[cia-drugs] Bush set to be dealt embarrassing diplomatic bitch slap
http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/ Bush set to be dealt embarrassing diplomatic bitch slap Sept. 14, 2006 -- President George W. Bush is scheduled to speak before the UN General Assembly next week. It will not be a happy occasion for Bush. He will be looking out on an assembly that will be poised to deliver the United States and Mr. Bush a humiliating defeat. The United States is losing in its effort to have Guatemala take over the Latin American seat on the UN Security Council. Venezuela is now favored to win the seat over the objections of US ambassador John Bolton, whose permanent nomination to be ambassador has been killed by the Senate for the current session, and the efforts of Guatemala's Foreign Minister and close Bush administration ally, Gert Rosenthal. Guatemala has among the worst human rights records in Latin America and its government is rife with evangelical fundamentalist Christians and Opus Dei Catholics. Its security services possess the latest in population surveillance technology thanks to Israeli companies like Tadiran. Venezuela is piling up votes for the Security Council seat and the Bush administration has been powerless to stop President Hugo Chavez's and Foreign Minister Nicolas Maduro's diplomatic juggernaut. In fact, Bolton's temperament at the UN has ensured that Venezuela's election to the Security Council is a "slam dunk." If Guatemala, Colombia, Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, and other U.S. Latin American allies are not able to reach a consensus among themselves by October 16 on whether Venezuela or Guatemala gets the seat, the vote will be decided by a two-thirds vote of the 192-member General Assembly, where Venezuela now has a lead. Not only has Venezuela lined up the votes of China and Russia, but as a result of the recent Non-Aligned Meeting in Havana, it can count on the support of a number of nations in the Caribbean, Africa, and the Middle East. Already, countries like Argentina, Brazil, Guyana, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Dominica, Cuba, Belize, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Barbados, Grenada, Malaysia, Iran, Belarus, Ghana, Mali, Zimbabwe, Syria, and Papua New Guinea have publicly announced their support for Venezuela, while positive pro-Caracas statements have come from Chile, Angola, Myanmar, Vietnam, Qatar, Benin, and India. UN Security Council: Waiting for Chavez. Bush set to be dealt embarrassing diplomatic bitch slap in vote for Venezuela to be on Security Council. Meanwhile, the Bush State Department (the main anti-Venezuela point man is Eric Watnik), Paul Wolfowitz's World Bank, and the new breed of intrusive and bellicose U.S. ambassadors have been strong-arming various countries to support Guatemala over Venezuela -- even by threatening to withhold much-needed economic aid. Haiti and the Dominican Republic are two countries that have been warned by Washington not to vote for Venezuela "or else." Guatemala can count on the votes of Bush administration allies, who are also supporting U.S. military adventures in Iraq and Afghanistan. They include Canada, Japan, Australia, Israel, Denmark, Poland, Albania, and the United Kingdom. But with the world increasingly seeing a vote for Venezuela as a slap at Bush, Venezuela will continue to gain supporters. __._,_.___ Complete archives at http://www.sitbot.net/ Please let us stay on topic and be civil.

[cia-drugs] m3 discontuance
If you believe this line of bullshit, then there's a bridge in brooklyn i'd like to sell ya! http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h6/discm3.htm Release Date: November 10, 2005, revised March 9, 2006 Discontinuance of M3 On March 23, 2006, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System will cease publication of the M3 monetary aggregate. The Board will also cease publishing the following components: large- denomination time deposits, repurchase agreements (RPs), and Eurodollars. The Board will continue to publish institutional money market mutual funds as a memorandum item in this release. Measures of large-denomination time deposits will continue to be published by the Board in the Flow of Funds Accounts (Z.1 release) on a quarterly basis and in the H.8 release on a weekly basis (for commercial banks). M3 does not appear to convey any additional information about economic activity that is not already embodied in M2 and has not played a role in the monetary policy process for many years. Consequently, the Board judged that the costs of collecting the underlying data and publishing M3 outweigh the benefits.

[cia-drugs] Re: Fwd: Gosch, again
Coincidentally, Monday was Florida's eighth annual Missing Children's Day, which this year fell on September 11. Jeb Bush remarked,We feel sorrow for the children we have lost and we also feel sorrow for the Americans and others, frankly, that lost their lives five years ago in the cowardly attacks on our country. [FL gov Jeb] Bush added, I'm not sure why God decided to bring these two acts together. But they do seem to go together, don't they? Yes, Florida pedophile leader Porter Goss and his notorious gang of slime drooling circle jerk Ferries flew 3 x 11 year old black straight A students into empty offices of the west wall of the Bohemian Pentogram playhouse on September 11, 2001. Three eleven year-old next MLK hopefuls were flying on Air America flight 7 x 11 aka American Airlines flight 77. An untouchable pedophile ring is laughing at us as we speak. -Bob --- In cia-drugs@yahoogroups.com, RoadsEnd [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Begin forwarded message: From: RoadsEnd [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: September 14, 2006 6:36:07 AM PDT To: ctrl CTRL [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: RoadsEnd [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Gosch, again http://rigint.blogspot.com/ THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 2006 Gosch, again  You have an overactive imagination. These are just the facts, Rich. I mean, I haven't even begun to let my imagination loose on this thing. - Cutter's Way Briefly, there's some movement on the story of the photographs left at Noreen Gosch's door. A tip out of Florida is apparently prompting West Des Moines police to conclude that not only do the photos fail to depict Johnny Gosch, but they don't even show a crime scene. (First reports spoke of an anonymous tipster, but that has since been spiked from the corporate news.) The unattributed lead drew police attention to Nelson Zalva, a retired Florida sheriff's investigator currently employed by the State Attorney's Office, who claims, with remarkable imprecision, that he investigated a case in either 1978 or 1979. He said he identified the boys in the photos. Zalva said they voluntarily posed for the pictures, but he couldn't recall why. On apparently nothing more than the strength of Zalva's word, police in Des Moines appear ready, and relieved, to accept that the delivery of the photos was simply a cruel hoax. Noreen has responded: The West Des Moines Police released a statement, indicating that they received an anonymous note saying there was an investigator in Florida who had investigated and identified the boys in the recent photo, which they appeared bound and gagged in 1979. They also stated this photo had been on the internet since 1979. Unfortunately, this press release caused a media storm and much confusion because they neglected to also mention that the detective only saw the photo of the THREE BOYS ON THE BED. At no time had he ever seen the photo of Johnny Gosch ... the black/white photo below. We also know that the internet as we know it . did not exist in 1979. We want to let people know so this will answer the questions you all must have in your minds by now. This press release was issued incorrectly and prematurely by the West Des Moines Police. Johnnygosch.com has also posted the following photograph which accompanied the other two left on Noreen's doorstep. (There may, in fact, be many more.) The man depicted, according to information accompanying the package, was a perp who abused Johnny and many others. Noreen handed it over to police, who remarked that the man is dead and there is a device around his neck called a ligature. (Dream's End asks on the RI forum: Was it already understood by the rest of you that the idea that this perp has a ligature around his neck brings us back to the JonBenet case?)  According to Noreen Gosch, the only photograph Nelson Zalva has claimed to ID is the colour picture of three boys bound and gagged on a bed. According to Zalva, he remembers the photograph well enough but can't remember the year, and reassures police that no crime was committed but can neither recall why, nor apparently produce evidence to support his claim. And perhaps most suspicious, there's the anonymous tipster who was both following the Gosch story and who also claimed to knew the details of an obscure case which came across the desk of a Tampa investigator nearly 30 years before. If there's nothing to the story and the boys were bound, gagged and photographed voluntarily all in good fun, then why the need for anonymity from the tipster who hooked up Zalva with the police halfway across the country? Given Florida's record on missing, abused and murdered children - it was in a Tallahassee park that the CIA's predatory paedophilic cult the Finders were arrested - tips from state officials ought to be, shall we say, thoroughly

Greg Palast, forensic economist, writing in his very entertaining book Armed Madhouse, does a great job of proving exactly how operatives of the oligarchy steal elections. So far they have not needed high tech hacking. They do it primarily by plotting demographic profiles to geography, then destroying, losing, disqualifying, or otherwise neutralizing votes from those geographical pockets profiled as voting Democrat. -Bob --- In cia-drugs@yahoogroups.com, judson witham [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: WAKE UP FOLKS they STOLE the VOTE This Affidavit is 18 pages long ENJOY http://web.northnet.org/minstrel/declaration.01.htm The methods employed to STEAL Liberty and Freedom have become VERY SOPHISTICATED.

[cia-drugs] Fwd: Ties Between Elites and Child Sex Rings Beyond Imagination
Begin forwarded message:From: RoadsEnd [EMAIL PROTECTED]Date: September 14, 2006 6:54:38 PM PDTTo: ctrl CTRL CTRL@LISTSERV.AOL.COM, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]Cc: RoadsEnd [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: Ties Between Elites and Child Sex Rings "Beyond Imagination" http://www.ipsnews.net/print.asp?idnews=34710 Readers OpinionsMEXICO:Ties Between Elites and Child Sex Rings "Beyond Imagination"Diego CevallosMEXICO CITY, Sep 13 (IPS) - The complicity in Mexico between child sex rings and the political and business elites "goes beyond what we can even imagine," says activist Lydia Cacho, who faces death threats and was even thrown briefly into prison for revealing those ties in a book."What we have just seen is only the tip of the iceberg," Cacho told IPS, after the local media aired Tuesday recordings of telephone conversations between two prominent politicians and a hotel owner now in prison, and a wealthy local businessman.The number of Mexican politicians and businessmen involved in child pornography and sex rings "would shock us if we knew the real extent of the phenomenon," said Cacho.In one of the illegally taped conversations broadcast Tuesday, which apparently date back to 2004, the governor of the state of Veracruz, Fidel Herrera of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), and Emilio Gamboa, head of the party's bloc in the lower house of Congress, can be heard talking on friendly terms with textile mogul Kamel Nacif.Nacif, a Mexican of Lebanese origin, who in the obscenity-laced conversation can be heard asking Gamboa to block a gambling bill to be debated by Congress, is suing Cacho for libel.In her 2004 book "Los demonios del Edén" (The Demons of Eden), Cacho -- who is a journalist and writer as well as the director of a women's shelter in Cancún -- links Nacif with Jean Succar, a Lebanese-born hotel owner who is in prison facing charges of arranging paedophile parties in that Mexican resort town.In another of the anonymously recorded conservations leaked to the press and broadcast Tuesday, Nacif can be heard talking with Succar.Succar, under arrest in Mexico since July, after he was extradited from the United States, can be heard asking Nacif for a seven million dollar loan to purchase a hotel in Cancún, to which Nacif responds in the affirmative.Later, the two exchange information on "the girl from Miami," who they refer to as "putita" (little whore), and who they say they have paid 2,000 dollars. Succar asks Nacif when it would be best to bring the girl to Cancún, and the latter responds that "next week, you son of a b***h, but you bring her to fornicate."In Cacho's book, Succar is identified as the head of a ring of adults who subjected underage girls to sexual abuse in Cancún, in which Nacif allegedly took part.Succar was arrested in February 2004 in the United States on child abuse charges and was extradited to Mexico in July, where he also faces charges for money laundering and organised crime."Los demonios del Edén" contains the personal accounts of minors who talk about the sexual abuse they suffered at the hands of a ring in which prominent figures were allegedly involved. The youngsters describe how the hotel owner sexually abused them himself, set up a prostitution ring to allow others to abuse them, and photographed them in order to sell the pornographic images on the Internet.A 2004 study by researcher Elena Azaola, which estimated that some 17,000 children under the age of 18 are victims of the sex trade in Mexico, is also based on interviews with minors who managed to escape, as well as visits to establishments where underage girls and boys are forced to work as prostitutes.The two PRI politicians, Herrera and Gamboa, denied having any illegal ties with Nacif, and said they did not even know Succar. From their point of view, the airing of the tapped phone conversations was a low political blow aimed at their party.The PRI, which ruled Mexico from 1929 to 2000, came in third in the Jul. 2 presidential and legislative elections.Gamboa is one of the lawmakers who have approached Felipe Calderón of the conservative governing National Action Party (PAN) over the last few days, since he was confirmed as president-elect by the electoral court.Javier González, a leader of the leftist Democratic Revolution Party (PRD) legislators, said the leaked conversations between Nacif and the PRI politicians showed that the political system "is rotten."The PRD argues that its candidate, Andrés López Obrador, lost the elections to Calderón because of fraud.Cacho agrees that corruption is rife. "Many businessmen like Nacif have amassed huge fortunes in exchange for dark favours to politicians."So far, no direct link between politicians or prominent businessmen and child porn or sex rings has been proven. But there are suspicions, which are fuelled by Nacif and his web of contacts.Cacho, who has been under police protection since last year, when she began to receive death threats, was referred
[cia-drugs] Re: Bush's Balls On The Barbi - he's BUSTED
My favorite Coup2K snapshot was published by Daniel Hopsicker, who detailed how Porter and The Ferries stole the presidential election in 2000. Hopsicker also provides the best snapshots of Porter and the JFK hit team, and of Porter making us forget Coup2K in, coincidentally, Florida, by 911, coincidentally a Floridian operation as well. Anyway, Hopsicker described CIA agent Charles Kane of Stuart FL as operating a command post in an rv, and then CIA slipped the order under the door to Republican and Christian useful idiots flown in from DC. Those operatives, in blind obedience to CIA, on nothing but anonymous written orders slipped under their door, rioted, mobbing and seizing all of the ballots. Florida's 911 op, made us forget Coup2K. Florida's 911 anthrax prevented us from forgetting 911, in the sense of picking up and carrying before remembering to vote our rights away with the Patriot Act and to vote to send our buccaneers to liberate Florida Air America's poppies being held hostage in Afghanistan. Thanks to mercenaries of Russell Opium Trust(ROT), the poppies of Afghanistan are no longer wearing burkhas, and 6100 tons of opium is being produced there now. Unfortunately, privateers forgot to liberate women in Afghanistan, and actually enslaved formerly liberated women in Iraq. In Iraq, women were put under sharia law by the US occupation, and in Afghanistan, hundreds of women burn themselves alive with gasoline in protest of al-CIA-duh's reign of terror on their homefront. Afghan women have it worse than Mexican women in an IMF/WB colonialist Ciudad Juarez maqiladora, apparently. -Bob --- In cia-drugs@yahoogroups.com, muckblit [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Greg Palast, forensic economist, writing in his very entertaining book Armed Madhouse, does a great job of proving exactly how operatives of the oligarchy steal elections.
