[CTRL] Chinese Expect Interesting Times

1999-01-05 Thread flw

 -Caveat Lector-

1999 to be an "interesting" year for China. Chinese Warlords anticipate the
economic
slowdown will get drastically worse. Already millions of recent unemployed
and millions
of poor angry farmers.
flw

South China Morning Post
Tuesday  January 5  1999
Big push to avoid unrest in 'key' year

WILLY WO-LAP LAM

Beijing is poised to hire up to 150,000 more paramilitary People's Armed
Police officers to maintain order throughout 1999, deemed by some cadres as
a make-or-break year for the Communist Party.

A security source in Beijing said that in internal meetings, President Jiang
Zemin and his colleagues had given more details on how to prevent unrest and
promote stability.
Mr Jiang was issuing his instructions in his capacity as head of the new
Temporary Leading Group on Rectifying National Affairs.

Mr Jiang said: "The party's political fortune in the 21st century may well
depend on whether we can maintain stability in 1999".

Most of the extra paramilitary officers would be recruited from demobilised
soldiers from the regular army.

Apart from pro-democracy activists, the leading group had identified three
groups of "dangerous people", the source said. They were underground
religious groups, illegal, wildcat trade unions and "social volunteers".
The last group, deemed "destabilising" by Mr Jiang, were considered
troublemakers who posed as volunteers.

They were active in areas such as fighting for workers' and consumers'
rights and environmental causes.

Mr Jiang and other leading group members had urged that maximum attention be
paid to preventing activists from forming national networks.

Instructions have been given to the police, the Ministry of State Security
and other relevant organs to detain dangerous elements "in good time" and to
speed up the judicial procedures for their subsequent imprisonment.

For example, dissidents who might stage demonstrations close to the 10th
anniversary of the Tiananmen Square crackdown in June could be locked up
well beforehand.
Meanwhile, diplomatic sources have identified the other members of the
leading group, which is empowered to use resources under the party,
Government or army.
It comprises: alternate member of the politburo Zeng Qinghong ; Minister of
State Security Xu Yongyue ; Procurator-General Han Zhubin ; and Mr Jiang's
adviser on ideology and propaganda Xing Bensi .

Other experts sitting in on the meetings include scholars from the Chinese
Academy of Science and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.

humanity towards freedom. You can imagine how that set with my
homosexual, athiest, marxist composition teacher. He said: "your music

restrain myself. I left school without the piece being performed and
without a degree, but in less then a year it was performed before 4,000
people by a professional orchestra and I recieved a standing ovation.
Not long afterwards I recieved a letter from the school saying that I
would be graduated at the end of the month. The degree hasn't done me
nearly the good that the experience did. Even if I had never gotten a

  nothing that I can do about it.
  You can still file a FOIA request with FBI and DOJ and see if in fact they
have
a file on you.  You can generally view all the contents of your FBI files,
with
names and addresses being deleted for privacy reasons.
  Should the FBI have some kind of "National Security" issue with a file,
you can also see that by seeing deleted pages and such.

  * 21456b VC - AUTH VC 40302a VC (California)  It is claimed by both the

  justify the reason for the "blotter."
  If you weren't carrying an ID, and the law requires people in Calif to carry

then you justified yourself.

  West Los Angeles on January 25th.  If Lt. Manny Garza is willing to own up
  to the mistake his department made or not.  However, I learned that there
  is a system for reporting citizens who do not travel with their "papers."
  This system which you recently discovered due to your own ill luck may have
been

I wish that were true. I doubt that you have heard it unless you live or
lived in Atlanta. It was performed at the Fox Theater at a "Star Wars"
concert in 1978 and again at Georgia State University in 1983. It was
played on the radio a couple times in Atlanta. Those are the only
performances I know of. However, I did send a copy of the score and all
parts to the St.Petersburg Symphony (Russia) and never heard from them.
It could be floating around and I have never heard about it. Wouldn't
that be wild. Where did you hear "Pilgrim's Progress"? It may be Ralph
Vaughn Williams'. He wrote an opera based on the story in the thirties.

Re: [CTRL] Stampeding Bison

1999-01-05 Thread L. Shipton




Curious, Environmental groups do not say that you have to quit 
eating meat. Think of Coustou. All they say is that we should take 
care of our food supply. They do not say that you can not train and ride a 
horse or train and show or shoot over a dog. They do think that you should 
do it without starving a animal. Compare the life of a show horse or a 
show dog OR heaven forbid even a chinchilla that was bred for it's fur. 
Let's take the horse or dog first well fed, well groomed, cared for in many 
ways. Overall on average they are taken care of much better that the 
normal family dog. Granted there is the risk of injury, that is true in 
human athletes as well. The other thing that I have heard of, at times is 
a great accumulation of animals (puppy mill), these are taken out - how many 
family pets have had puppies and those puppies dropped off at the human society 
or worse at the side of the road - these are not heard of as the animals slowly 
starve or join into packs and hunt through the city or country until they have 
to be killed. The show animal - worth a lot. The family dog many 
times ends up at the pound when they are no longer cute babies or when the 
family can not keep them due to economics or moving. The chinchilla and 
along with it chickens and any other animal bred for use are covered in the next 
section.

Why would people want to protest the use these animals are put 
to? The farmer, the (previous) chinchilla breeder, the horse breeder, the 
dog breeder, the person showing in 4H and anyone else that looks for health will 
see things happening in animals faster than humans. 

Getting people mad at ecologists - so does the farmer notice 
the fact that there does not seem to be the diversity of animals (pests) around 
the farm, do people notice that there are less road kills, does the homeowner 
notice that there seems to be fewer songbirds. Not until the pesticides, 
herbicides and the other chemicals start effecting the people that use them, or 
pay for others to use these pesticides or herbicides (on their land) and then 
have a reaction. 

Male fish are producing eggs in their testes in the UK, the 
reptiles in the everglades have smaller male genitalia and there is a lot of 
mutations in the frogs that do manage to make it past the tadpole stage. 


(SPECULATION) What do (some of) the (human) males that 
know about this do? They eat well, stay away from these chemicals (as much 
as possible) and see if they can get some female pregnant to see if they have 
sperm or eggs in their testes and fuss if she gets a abortion before they can be 
sure that they will actually have a viable child. 

One last thing. Do you know what a set of ovaries look 
like that have just released a egg? The egg actually bursts out of the 
ovary and leaves a place which will scar in it's wake.

Food for thought. That egg is much larger than a 
sperm. So which of you out there are already producing eggs in your 
testes? What would happen if a egg were to try to get out of a 
testes? Or maybe you have other things that are happening to your bodies? 


So why get rid of the American Farmer that keeps animals for 
food and try to only have mass produced, assembly line chickens, pigs, cattle 
and dairy herds? Because the 
American Farmer just might wake 
up and start saying something!

Re: [CTRL] Still Unsolved: The Brown/Goldman Murders

 -Caveat Lector-

I have just finished reading the book; "Killing Time", about this very case.
The information within it causes me to look with much doubt upon the idea that
OJ committed the murders.  Interestingly it does cause me to believe that he
knows a lot more about who did it and why, but is not saying anything for some
reason, probably fear.  I think the evidence points to DRUGS, and both Nicole
and Ron were involved.  The MAFIA is probably present in some form, and where
they are the INTELLIGENCE SERVICES are not far behind.  In my mind there is a
LOT MORE to this whole issue than we are being asked to believe.

.=CHANGES 
THAT HURTPoliticians in Washington say the economy did well in 
1998,citing such facts as these:** The stock market continues to 
return phenomenal profits toinvestors. As 1998 came to a close, the SP 
500 (an average of500 large firms) had returned an average of 29% per year 
toinvestors for the fourth year in a row.[1]** Executive salaries 
have never been higher. The NEW YORK TIMESreported recently that Michael 
Eisner, chairman of the WaltDisney Company, was paid $471.5 million for his 
work in 1998;Sanford Weill, chairman of Citigroup, received $227.3 
millionfor his year's effort; Eugene Isenberg, chairman of 
NaborsIndustries, received a paycheck of $209.7 million in 1998;Eckhard 
Peiffer, chairman of Compaq Computer, was paid $192.5million in 1998; Mark 
Ruben, chairman of Colgate-Palmolivereceived $170.6 million; Eli Broad, 
chairman of Sun America,$149.8 million; Charles Heimbold, chairman of 
Bristol-MyersSquibb, $146.6 million; General Electric's chairman, John 
Welch,made do with $138.6 million in 1998. For his efforts 
(notablyunsuccessful) to expand the sale of sugar water 
worldwide,Summerfield Johnston, Jr., chairman of Coca Cola, 
received$132.4 million in 1998... so life is good in the 
executivesuites.[2]For real people doing real work, on the other 
hand, thesituation in 1998 was somewhat different, according to the 
NEWYORK TIMES:[3]** Despite strong hiring since 1993 and 
record-setting lowunemployment rates, the number of Americans living in 
poverty isnow just where it was in 1990. People have jobs, but many 
ofthose jobs pay poverty wages.** The middle class has not gained 
either. Despite a steadyexpansion of the economy for 8 years, says the 
TIMES, Whilewealthier families enjoyed big gains, particularly from 
thebooming stock market, most households find that their 
incomes,adjusted for inflation, are no higher today than they were 
in1989, when the last expansion ended. Americans, for the mostpart, have 
been running in place for 25 years, says the TIMES.** As the 
Federal budget deficit has turned into a surplus,private indebtedness, 
particularly for consumers, has risen torecord levels, giving the economy 
the sort of boost thatGovernment deficits did in the 
1980's.But that debt accumulation has come at a cost, says 
the TIMES.By one estimate, 5 percent of all the nation's households 
havefiled for bankruptcy protection [during] the last five 
years.** In 1990, 16.1% of the non-elderly lacked health 
insurancecoverage. Today the figure has risen to 18.3% -- a 14% 
increasein the medically uninsured in the past 8 years.** After 
adjusting for inflation, the median family income (halfearn more, half earn 
less) was $37,005 in 1997, just about whereit was in 1989, and only $1260 
higher than it was in 1973. Inother words, purchasing power grew 0.14% per 
year, 1973-1997.The NEW YORK TIMES says, Many households in the 1960's 
addedmore to their incomes in a single year than their counterpartstoday 
have added in 25 years. And they did it with one wageearner, not two or 
three, working fewer hours than the averagejobholder does today. Such 
changes hurt. Even in good times, thelong working hours strain family 
life.[3]Even conservative, market-oriented economists are now 
sayingthat the performance of the '90s economy demonstrates 
thatgovernment action is needed to alleviate poverty and 
inequality.Robert Lucas, the Nobel prize winning economist at 
theUniversity of Chicago, told the TIMES, We are living through 
aperiod of sustained economic growth without inflation, and 
theunemployment rate has come down to levels I never thought Iwould see 
again in the United States. But there are obviouslyplenty of problems. 
Poverty and income inequality are two. Theseare problems that cannot be 
addressed by the markets. They haveto be addressed by specific government 
programs offeringspecific solutions, Lucas said.Unfortunately 
the so-called conservatives (of both parties)who control this 
Congress have their minds elsewhere.A VAST DELUSION OF

So what?  If they keep Torah, whether Jews by heritage or conversion, then
they have become children of Abraham.

If, in addition, they come to embrace Yeshua HaMoshiach (Jesus the Messiah) as
Messiah God, as more and more Jews are doing, then they have become completed
Jews.  And Christians who take the trouble to study and understand Torah
enough to incorporate it into their lives have become *firmly* grafted into
the vine.

Yeshua / Jesus said He came to fulfill (satisfy) the Law, not destroy it.  He
repealed none of God's Law.  Human embellishments and detail in carrying out
God's Law may be optional in light of modern advances in hygiene, sanitation
and health, but God's Law remains perfect and unchanged.  And is *not*
optional!

THE CURRENT UNPLEASANTNESS

DEADBEAT DAD? Is Bill Clinton a deadbeat dad? The question has arisen again
because of the availability (thanks to the Starr report) of stats on the First
Molecule. The issue was first raised during the 1992 New Hampshire primary in
an article in the Globe, but was quickly buried by the rest of the media even
though the woman involved had passed a lie detector test. The story was that
Clinton had a child by an Arkansas prostitute with whom he had engaged in both
group and more intimate sex. The campaign staff refused to comment on the
matter and advance folk literally ran ahead of Hillary Clinton removing all
copies of the paper that might fall into her field of vision.

(One of those who would have been expected to know about the story was
Newsweek's Joe Klein, but he denies having heard about it or using it as the
inspiration for the plot of "Primary Colors.")

The story lay fairly dormant until the matter of the blue dress arose, with
its subsequent examination for DNA residue. Now purported son Danny Williams
has taken a DNA test at the urging of the Star's Richard Gooding, the same
reporter who uncovered Dick Morris' interesting relationship with a prostitute
and her feet. The results will soon be known.

This has been reported by the Star, Matt Drudge, the New York Post, and even
the BBC (which leads with the item at its on-line site) but our leading news
nannies, the New York Times and Washington Post, are still keeping the matter
from their readers.

RAPE STORY: In the establishment media, at least, the lid is also still on
evidence concerning an alleged rape by Clinton in 1978 -- contained in the
censored portion of the Starr report -- that continues to play a big role in
the behind-the-scenes struggle over how the Senate will respond to
impeachment. Journalists know about the situation, know it affected the House
vote on impeachment, yet won't let readers and viewers in on the secret. As a
result they prattle on about constitutional issues that are of tertiary
concern to the real politics of the situation. The true struggle is not over
constitutional principles but over exactly how much of Clinton's past is going
to be exposed to public view. For example, Henry Hyde reportedly would like to
call as witnesses five Jane Does who signed false affidavits in the Jones
case. The Clintonistas desperately want to avoid this.

MORE OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE? If there is a Senate trial, among the witnesses
should be those shamuses who have fanned out around the country trying to find
dirt on Republican legislators, such as the ones reported rummaging around in
Trent Lott's home town. There is at least circumstantial evidence that
Clinton's obstruction of justice continues right to the present as the White
House pursues its scorched earth policy.

THE BUSH QUESTION: One ex-president has been unusually quiet during this time
of national trouble. Initially, we wrote off Big George's behavior as that of
a thoughtful dad, since the last thing little George needed was pops popping
off with another misplaced sound bite. But several things hint that more may
be afoot. For example: why did Clinton release an important portion of the CIA
 Drugs report right in the middle of his impeachment crisis? Was the CIA
report a shot across the bow -- a reminder to Big George of how much the
agency and Clinton know about Bush's role in

 The publication in France of "The Black Book of Communism"

 But the book's real impact could be in America.  At long last,

   "http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a63342.htm

 Topic: Communist Conspiracy


 Teflon Communism
 ---
 The Wall Street Journal
 January 16, 1998 By ANNE APPLEBAUM

 It began in November, became passionate in December, and trickled
 out again in January.  While it lasted, the debate in Paris about
 the crimes of communism was as fierce as only a French intellectual
 debate can be: there were headlines in Le Monde, questions in
 parliament, and no doubt more than one furious discussion on the
 Left Bank as well.  But now the issues have faded away once again,
 as they always do.  Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991,
 this is a debate that has never quite got off the ground -- and it
 is worth asking why.

 This time, the argument was set off by a book put together by a
 collection of respected analysts and historians: Le Livre Noir du
 Communism (The Black Book of Communism).  One wouldn't expect that
 over 800 pages of history, photographs and statistics would stir
 political fury and journalistic interest, but this tome was
 different.  While there are histories of communism's toll in the
 Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, and in China and Cambodia, this is
 reportedly the first time that anyone has made a comprehensive
 study, complete with an estimated body count of 85 to 100 million.
 Also unusual, the introduction, written by Stephane Courtois of the
 National Center for Scientific Research in Paris, argues that these
 deaths deserve the appellation "crimes against humanity" -- the
 term most closely associated with Nazi genocide.

 Why the Controversy?

 Those numbers and that phrase triggered the reactions that took
 Paris by surprise.  Intellectuals, including some of the Black
 Book's co-authors, objected to the implied comparison of Nazism
 to communism.  Some politicians began to question the presence
 of the French Communist party in the governing coalition.  One
 parliamentary deputy demanded to know how Prime Minister Lionel
 Jospin intended to "recognize the crimes of communism" and to
 "establish the responsibility" of those -- including those in
 France -- who supported the criminals.  Mr. Jospin's response was
 that he was "proud" of the presence of Communists in his government
 and shocked by the comparison of communism to Nazism; a group of
 right-wing deputies marched out of parliament as a result.

 What seems extraordinary, in retrospect, is not that the French
 worked themselves up into a lather over a few numbers quoted in
 a book, but that any aspect of this subject should still be
 controversial anywhere at all.  At the end of the 20th century,
 it is no longer possible to say of Marxism, as many once did, that
 "the ideas were right, but the people failed."  Whether you think
 the death toll comes to 100 million or a mere 10 million, whether
 you count man-made famines as well as mass terror, whether you
 include Latin American insurgencies or stick simply to Eastern
 Europe -- in 1998 there really should be no doubt in anybody's mind
 that the ideas behind Communist regimes were wrong too.

 In order to understand this, there is no need to compare Communist
 crimes to Nazi crimes.  It is pointless to argue over which
 philosophy, communism or fascism, is "worse":  both are evil,
 both should be condemned, those who perpetrated either should be
 punished, those who sympathized with either should be ashamed.

 Of course, the degree of punishment has not been the same.  As
 Mr. Courtois points out in the introduction, there has been no
 Nuremberg for criminals who perpetrated terror and murder under
 Communist regimes.  In most of Central and Eastern Europe,
 Stalinist prosecutors, jailers and torturers are living out a
 peaceful retirement on government pensions.  In Russia, the crimes
 of the past are rarely discussed in public.  In China, the camps
 and torture continue, if not at the same intensity.

 While deplorable, and in some cases dangerous to the stability of
 fragile new democracies, this absence of punishment in the former
 Communist world can be explained.  The transformation of Communist
 regimes happened gradually; often former Communists remained in
 power; newly democratic countries found it too difficult to deal
 with the past when facing immediate economic and political
 challenges.

Re: [CTRL] Stampeding Bison

1999-01-05 Thread YnrChyldzWyld

 -Caveat Lector-

Whether Native Americans corraled bison or drove them off cliffs, the
FACT of the matter is that at the time the Europeans showed up, bison
numbered in the MILLIONS, and their accounts relate migrations where
bison herds filled the land from horizon to horizon FOR DAYS...

And yet within a few years of the railroad coming thru, the bison had
been almost exterminated...

So whatever hunting methods Indians used, even if they 'wasted' half a
bison when butchering it, the FACT of the matter is that their methods
did NOT wipe out the herds, but in fact seem to have made the herds more
vigorous...while the European hunting methods did just the opposite...

On Mon, 4 Jan 1999, Hawk wrote:
Then I thought of something else... Let's compare the American Bison
with the elephant.  In Africa, elephants are owned by "the people,"
which everyone with any sense should know by now, means "the
government."  There is no private ownership of elephants.  Vast
resources are spent (read, "taxpayer money") to protect the elephant
for extinction due to poachers, disease, and general mis-management of
the herds.  On the other hand, in Burma, Thailand, and other countries,
"people" -- without "the" in front of it -- meaning "individuals" -- own
the elephants.  The elephants are used as beasts of burden in private
enterprise.

Maybe because you are talking about two different speciecies of
elephant...the Indian elephant is semi-tame and is trainable, while the
African elephant -- a totally different species of elephant -- is not, at
least not without an extensive amount of time and money to do so, and
even then it will not be as tame as it's Indian cousin


They are run over with elephants... elephants are thriving and
multiplying.

Bullshit.  The Indian elephant's in trouble due to loss of it's natural
habitat...


There is no danger of their becoming extinct.

Again, bullshit.  An elephant is extremely expensive, to buy, to train
(takes years), and to house and feed adequately...therefore most areas of
the east where the elephant was once used have replaced the elephant with
gasoline-driven vehicles to do the same work, as the gas vehicles are
ultimately cheaper...

  What I remember from years ago  was it was *possible* that the millenium

the millenium actually begins in what we know as the years 2004 or in
that area...or 2001 could be the correct date.

It's ALL an artificial construct

GOD is not operating on the Western calendar...nor on any other calendar
developed by man...

Whenever 'the millenium' ends or begins is based solely on a subjective
decision made by a body of men...doesn't matter a whit about
'corrections', etc.

In the west, we've set up an artificial construct where every 1000 years,
people 'lose it' and expect the world to end...

The problem is (and it doesn't matter whether it's a 'corrected' calendar
or not) is that people forget that there was never a year zero, that
centuries (and hence, 'millenium') start with a year '1' (or ending in
'1'), which means it ends in a year ending in 'zero')...

The same argument went on 100 years ago, where those 'in the know'
unsuccessfully tried to stop 'Fin de Siecle' parties being held on Dec.
31, 1899, accurately pointing out that the 19th century didn't really end
until a year later, and the 20th century start on Jan. 1, 1901

It's a losing argument...now, just like then...so my suggestion is that
the party last a year and two days, start on Dec. 31, 1999, and end at
midnight on Jan. 1, 2001   ;-)

   Some might argue that an even greater scam is the social security

   As for the most despicable business transaction, it is hard to find
anything to compare with government actions as to their ultimate
negative effect. However, there are certainly many transactions which
have had negative effects throughout history. Many believe that the
stock market was purposely crashed in 1929. If this was so, that may be
considered the most dispicable transaction. But even there it would have
had to be a series of transactions. It is hard to really cause a lot of
problems with one transaction, even between major corporations.

MURDER IN THE MARTINSBURG SHERATON?


By Joel Bleifuss

For more than a year, Danny Casolaro, a Washington D.C. - based freelance investigator, had been sorting through a web of intrigue--the S & L debacle, BCCI, Iran-Contra, the contra-connected Wackenhut Corp., the Wackenhut-connected Inslaw case, and the Inslaw-connected "October Surprise."

According to one of his close friends, who asked not to be named, Casolaro began receiving death threats eight or nine months ago. "Brother, just make it quick," Casolaro is reported to have told one of these midnight callers. The last threat came on Monday, August 5, according to his brother, Anthony.

How quick death came we may never know. On Saturday, August 10, Casolaro was found dead in Room 517 of the Martinsburg, W. Va., Sheraton. His body was discovered with 12 incisions in his arms in a bathtub of bloody water 17 hours after he had called his mother's house at 6 p.m. Friday to say he was heading home but that he would not make it to his niece's birthday party. On the following Monday Martinsburg authorities notified the family of Casolaro's death, but by then the body had been embalmed and the motel room had been sanitized by a cleaning contractor. Officials are calling the incident an "unattended death" while they continue their investigation. Family and friends say that suicide is out of the question. They maintain that Casolaro was not a depressive type, and that while he did have financial problems, he did not dwell on them.

According to family and friends, before leaving for Martinsburg, Casolaro had been ecstatic. The pieces of the puzzle were finally fitting together. He had told them he was going to West Virginia to meet a source who was to help him nail down a last piece of evidence in his investigation into the Inslaw software-theft case.

Those close to Casolaro want many questions answered. Where is his ever-present briefcase? It was not in the motel room. Where is his tape deck? It is missing. Where were his notes and the outline of his proposed book, "Behold a Pale Horse," which he had shown to friends days before his death? The documents were not found in the Sheraton motel room or in the four boxes of his papers that the family turned over to ABC News. Why did authorities wait so long to notify the family of his death? His driver's license said he lived in Falls Church, Va., and all the Casolaros listed in the 703 area code are his relatives. Why was his body embalmed before the family was notified? West Virginia law requires family approval prior to embalming. Who was the man who telephoned Casolaro's house on Saturday evening? When a housekeeper picked up the phone, a voice said, "You're dead, you bastard."

MOTIVE FOR MURDER? What was Casolaro investigating that could have put his life in such danger? David MacMichael is a former CIA analyst who now directs the Washington office of the Association of National Security Alumni, a watchdog group. MacMichael had talked to Casolaro on the phone on Thursday, the day he left for Martinsburg. Casolaro had made an appointment to meet with him.

Says MacMichael, "providing the death was not a suicide, one can examine three scenarios. First, Casolaro was developing a theory that a group of former intelligence officers were members of a for-profit cabal that Casolaro called "The Octopus." According to his theory, over the past 25 years the Octopus had its tentacles in a number of international scandals." MacMichael doesn't think such a far-fetched sounding theory would get Casolaro killed. "If you published their names, pictures and documents, what kind of book would you have?" asks MacMichael. It would be dismissed, according to Macmichael, like "a UFO crank book."

Second, Casolaro was looking into the October Surprise, the alleged deal between the 1980 Reagan presidential campaign and Iranians. That his death would be connected to this investigation is "nonsense" says MacMichael, who explains that many journalists are now investigating the 1980 deal, making it unlikely that Casolaro had information significant enough to endanger his life.

Which leads to the third scenario, that Casolaro was on his way to collect the final evidence needed to wrap up his investigation of a scandal that, as MacMichael put it, involves "real crimes, real people and real money"--the Inslaw case.

1999-01-05 Thread RoadsEnd






X DRUDGE REPORT X 01/05/99 06:52 UTC X


WHITE HOUSE DNA CHASE:  TEST RESULTS EXPECTED TUESDAY

**World Exclusive**

"I know it is his!" mother Bobbie Ann Williams told the STAR magazine during
a preliminary interview.  "He's the only white man I slept with that month."

And now the DRUDGE REPORT has learned, preliminary DNA test results in the
Danny Williams/Bill Clinton paternity showdown are expected as early as today!

He's been told all of his life that Bill Clinton is his father, and late
last month, 13-year old Danny Williams of Arkansas underwent a DNA test to
find out the truth.

The STAR magazine and ace investigative reporter Richard Gooding hope to
determine Danny Williams' true paternity by matching the teen's DNA with
information made public in the Starr report -- information that traced the
president to Monica Lewinsky's dirty dress.

Phil Bunton, editor of the STAR magazine, said late Monday: "It could be a
13 year-old hoax, we don't know yet."

But the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal that lab runs on DNA samples provided by
Williams and his mother have now been analyzed and are being compared to
Bill Clinton's genetic code outlined in information publicly released by the
United States Congress.

It is not known if and when the STAR will make the results known.

There is also tremendous intriguing surrounding tuition payments made to a
private school in Arkansas that Williams has been attending.  But details on
what information Star and Gooding may have regarding those payments were
sketchy Monday night.

STAR and Gooding have arranged for Williams and his mother to hold an
all-media press conference blowout if DNA results show a link.

Elsewhere, White House staffers of all ranks have been warned to "avoid
direct denials" regarding the paternity challenge, at least until results
are in, it has been learned.

"It is obviously just a final push to embarrass the president," one insider
told the DRUDGE REPORT.  "But if there is one thing that we've learned from
the past twelve months, nothing is gained by going with absolutes."

Press secretary Joe Lockhart followed the script during a Monday briefing at
the White House where he was pressed for official comment:

Q:  Joe, I'm not here to defend the STAR tabloid, but it seems to me they
broke the story of Gennifer Flowers and the Dick Morris sex scandal. Now,
when both of those stories broke, defenders of the President said, oh, it's
just the Star, it's just a tabloid, we're not going to dignify that with a
response. And that was sort of the way to discredit the story.   It seems to
me that both those stories turned out to be true -- the Dick Morris story
certainly turned out to be true; the Gennifer Flowers story, at least a
portion of it, the President has admitted that he had at least one sexual
liaison with Gennifer Flowers. And my question is, how can you use that same
defense to just dismiss out of hand the story? I'm not asking whether the
story is true, but wouldn't it be more instructive to just deny or
acknowledge the facts that are in question here, rather than try to smear
that tabloid?

MR. LOCKHART: I'm not trying to smear, I'm just telling you that unless you
have some independent reporting that you want to bring to this room and ask
me about, I'm just not going to comment.

Q: The picture on the Internet he looks exactly like the President.

MR. LOCKHART: That's good. And I'm an alien space baby.

[Laughter]

And we're probably related -- so, next.

Q Do we have some of your DNA?

MR. LOCKHART: Sam, that's personal and we'll talk afterwards. [Laughter]

Okay, I think we're done here, guys.

Thank you. END

---

The STAR signed Williams and his immediate family to a retainer valued in
the low six-figures.  In exchange, the family agreed to be tested,
interviewed and will sit for an exclusive photo spread.

[Reports that Danny Williams has already posed for a photo in front of the
White house appear to be erroneous.]

Williams' mother told a tabloid in 1992 that she approached Clinton after
she allegedly got pregnant with his child during a paid sex session.  She
said: "He just laughed.  He was rubbing my big belly and said: 'Girl, this
can't be my baby.' But I knew it was...  And the older he got, the more he
started looking like his daddy, Bill."

The current thinking inside of the Star magazine, the DRUDGE REPORT has
learned, is to not go with the story if the lab tests do not show a DNA link
to the president.

"If there is no match, there simply is no story," a magazine source
explained late Monday.

You need to do some research on the subject, H. (with all due respect).
The Canadian government is subsidizing their producers.  Your remarks
about agricultural subsidies demonstrates your basic lack of knowledge
about conditions in the agricultural sector.

The reason why you should "buy American" is quite simple.  Your dollars
are going to insure the continued productivity of our domestic economy.
The wheat farmers are Americans who pay taxes, send their kids off to war
to protect the country.  If the wheat farmers do well economically, rural
America does well...  The agricultural sector supports thousands of small
businesses throughout the American Midwest.  Each dollar that is spent in
a rural community is "rolled over" several times through that community.

When you buy American products, you are supporting your country.  It's
that simple.  You are indirectly the beneficiary of the economic wellbeing
of your fellow citizens.  The farmers pay taxes that support basic
services like schools, highways, medical services...
If your fellow citizens go under economically, eventually,
YOU will be asked to pay for their welfare. Their economic distress
undermines your own economic security.  How so?  Re-read your American
history.  Take a look at the American Depression. When money is taken out
of an economy, out of the pockets of ordinary working people, the system
eventually collapses.

Re: Your "tribal mentality" remarks.  They are fundamentally racist and
absurd.  First of all, Native Americans did not have a "money" economy.
Their technological expertise could not rival the Europeans (who, as you
must know) were the heirs and technological beneficiaries of several
advanced civilizations (Rome, Greece, Egypt, the cultures of the Levant)..
The European expansion was based on CENTURIES of cultural trials and
errors...  Also, look at the role that geography,a temperate climate,
and proximity to the "civilized" Near East played in the development of
Europe.

Re: "God made animals for us" comments.  They're made for the plate? An
interesting argument.  I would only point out that we might consider some
healthier, "kinder and gentler" (borrowing a phrase) ways of taking care
of our protein needs. Just a thought.  But of course we could follow PJ

PAPER 52 - PLANETARY MORTAL EPOCHS
From the inception of life on an evolutionary planet to the time of its final
flowering in the era of light and life, there appear upon the stage of world
action at least seven epochs of human life. These successive ages are
determined by the planetary missions of the divine Sons, and on an average
inhabited world these epochs appear in the following order:


1. Pre-Planetary Prince Man.

2. Post-Planetary Prince Man.

3. Post-Adamic Man.

4. Post-Magisterial Son Man.

5. Post-Bestowal Son Man.

6. Post-Teacher Son Man.

7. The Era of Light and Life.


The worlds of space, as soon as they are physically suitable for life, are
placed on the registry of the Life Carriers, and in due time these Sons are
dispatched to such planets for the purpose of initiating life. The entire
period from life initiation to the appearance of man is designated the
prehuman era and precedes the successive mortal epochs considered in this
narrative.


1. PRIMITIVE MAN
From the time of man's emergence from the animal level--when he can choose to
worship the Creator--to the arrival of the Planetary Prince, mortal will
creatures are called primitive men. There are six basic types or races of
primitive men, and these early peoples successively appear in the order of the
spectrum colors, beginning with the red. The length of time consumed in this
early life evolution varies greatly on the different worlds, ranging from one
hundred and fifty thousand years to over one million years of Urantia time.

The evolutionary races of color--red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and
indigo--begin to appear about the time that primitive man is developing a
simple language and is beginning to exercise the creative imagination. By this
time man is well accustomed to standing erect.


Primitive men are mighty hunters and fierce fighters. The law of this age is
the physical survival of the fittest; the government of these times is wholly
tribal. During the early racial struggles on many worlds some of the
evolutionary races are obliterated, as occurred on Urantia. Those who survive
are usually subsequently blended with the later imported violet race, the
Adamic peoples.

In the light of subsequent civilization, this era of primitive man is a long,
dark, and bloody chapter. The ethics of the jungle and the morals of the
primeval

 forests are not in keeping with the standards of later dispensations of
revealed religion and higher spiritual development. On normal and
nonexperimental worlds this epoch is very different from the prolonged and
extraordinarily brutal struggles which characterized this age on Urantia. When
you have emerged from your first world experience, you will begin to see why
this long and painful struggle on the evolutionary worlds occurs, and as you
go forward in the Paradise path, you will increasingly understand the wisdom
of these apparently strange doings. But notwithstanding all the vicissitudes
of the early ages of human emergence, the performances of primitive man
represent a splendid, even a heroic, chapter in the annals of an evolutionary
world of time and space.

Early evolutionary man is not a colorful creature. In general, these primitive
mortals are cave dwellers or cliff residents. They also build crude huts in
the large trees. Before they acquire a high order of intelligence, the planets
are sometimes overrun with the larger types of animals. But early in this era
mortals learn to kindle and maintain fire, and with the increase of inventive
imagination and the improvement in tools, evolving man soon vanquishes the
larger and more unwieldy animals. The early races also make extensive use of
the larger flying animals. These enormous birds are able to carry one or two
average-sized men for a nonstop flight of over five hundred miles. On some
planets these birds are of great service since they possess a high order of
intelligence, often being able to speak many words of the languages of the
realm. These birds are most intelligent, very obedient, and unbelievably
affectionate. Such passenger birds have been long extinct on Urantia, but your
early ancestors enjoyed their services.


Man's acquirement of ethical judgment, moral will, is usually coincident with
the appearance of early language. Upon attaining the human level, after this
emergence of mortal will, these beings become receptive to the temporary
indwelling of the divine Adjusters, and upon death many are duly elected as
survivors and sealed by the archangels for subsequent resurrection and Spirit
fusion. The archangels

Domestic Tranquility
How Tabs Support the Status Quo

In the long run only he will achieve basic results in influencing public
opinion who is able to reduce problems to the simplest terms.
—Joseph Goebbels, 1942

As chapter 2 suggests, the use of supermarket tabloids as tools for espionage
and the dissemination of propaganda seems exceedingly natural. Although they
are widely read, they remain invisible to the mainstream media. In a time when
subliminal advertising and the subtle effects of violence on TV warrant
serious debate, tabloid content remains unexamined and ignored. Millions of
people claim to never pick up a tabloid, yet the
y are exposed to the headlines as they pass through checkout counters. As
outlined earlier, merely reading a headline has its effects.

Once again, the tabloids' anonymity is key. Even people who look for signs of
media conspiracy to shape public opinion do not address tabloids. This
publishing realm has the perfect camouflage—it's right in front of our noses.

In 1984 a reporter visited the offices of the National Examiner to try to
expose its unethical practices. Editor Billy Burt allowed her full run of the
office. She could speak to anyone at all and look at whatever she wanted as
long as she didn't interfere with people doing their work.

On a hunch, she decided that a recent story about a boy born on a
rollercoaster was a fake. She researched the story but could find no trace of
it in any other newspaper. She called Burt on it, and he quickly told her that
the story had been taken from a stringer in Brazil. She doggedly used the
resources of her paper to try to track down the story, but came up with
nothing. When she presented this to Burt he asked her to come into his office,
where he shut the door.

"Look, I'll tell you a secret," he said in a sheepish tone. "That story's
about 30 years old."

Aha! There was her answer. She couldn't find the incident because it was too
old to show up on any of her databases. She swallowed Burt's ploy completely.
A good reporter, she thought she had run her quarry to ground. There are few
more gullible than a journalist.

The Not so-Harmless Side of Tabs

Some of the tabloids' activities parallel those of Readers Digest, which has
been linked to the CIA. In 1988, Covert Action Information Bulletin No.29
documented the magazine's connections to propaganda efforts, starting when
copies of the Digest were air-dropped behind enemy lines during World War II.
The article explains the links between the wholesome Reader's Digest and
various American "psychological warfare" agents.

Like the Digest, tabloids are considered harmless. Nobody questions why
tabloids and the Digest expend large sums of money on stories they lever
print, or which could have been written after making a few phone calls. Why
Reader's Digest—a magazine supposedly devoted to reprints—would maintain a
well-staffed Hong Kong office makes little sense. Its maintenance of other
offices around the world is suspicious, specially its former Havana offices,
which served as the focal point for its Central American editions.

In fact, the more innocuous the format, the more insidious the proaganda.
Readers Digest has the largest circulation of any publication in he world. It
is pro-American and pro-Christian. Its editors and pubishers are notoriously
jingoistic. At one time American flag decals were dispensed to every employee.
The Digest has been a useful outlet for disinformation, especially about the
supposed Communist threat. Ronald Reagan even cited it as a source of
information about the Sandinista government in Nicaragua! As if the man in
charge of the Contras needed bolstering from reading material normally
associated with musty dentist offices.

Tabloids—especially the Enquire~spend tons of money on foreign stories,
sending reporters all over the world for no discernible reason other than to
gather information. They may claim to be looking for lost dinosaurs in the
jungles of Zaire or for ancient astronauts in Peru. But none of these stories
require on-the-ground reporting. Curiously, many of the sites are close to
hard-to-monitor war zones or areas controlled by guerrilla movements.

The people who run and staff the tabs are anything but stupid. Many are former
editors and reporters for the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time and
Newsweek. American Media co-owner Michael Boylan is a former photo editor for
the New York Times. Eddie Clontz, editor of the outrageous Weekly World News,
used to be an articles editor at the Pulitzer-Prize-winning St. Petersburg
Times.

Many tabloid reporters are bright, accomplished investigators and writers.

Impeached POTUS

Clinton May Miss State of the Union Speech

Jury Tampering

PRESIDENT CLINTON may be forced to shelve his State of the Union
Address, the showpiece in the American political calendar, because of
his impeachment trial.
Democrats and Republicans agree that he cannot stand at the podium in
Congress on Jan 19 if he is still, figuratively, in the dock of the
Senate facing perjury and witness-tampering charges being prosecuted by
the House of Representatives. Senators of both parties say it would be
improper for the President to deliver an oration to his accusers and, in
the Senate's case more importantly, to his jurors.

Mr Clinton desperately wants to go ahead with the speech, which offers
an unparalleled set-piece opportunity for a president to present himself
as in charge and purposeful. Last year he seized the chance to repair
his credibility eight days after the Monica Lewinsky sex-and-cover-up
scandal erupted.

It would not be a constitutional problem were the President to fail to
deliver the speech in person. Although the constitution requires
presidents to give Congress an annual report, before the advent of
television many sent it in writing rather than turning up on Capitol
Hill to bask in applause.

Mr Clinton's trial is due to open next Monday. If a censure compromise
cannot be agreed, and a full trial goes ahead, it would take weeks,
perhaps months, some Senators fear.

Reno Appointed Web Hubbell to Oversee Clipper Chip

by Charles R. Smith

See the FBI documents here: http://www.software.net/fbi.html
A newly de-classified document from the FBI confirms that Attorney
General Reno appointed Webster Hubbell to a secret computer chip project
intended to bug America. The document, a 1993 letter from FBI Director
William Sessions to Janet Reno, was obtained from the Department of
Justice using the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).

The FBI letter to Reno states "During the June 30, 1993 meeting with the
National Security Council staff to discuss the status of the
Presidential Decision and Review Directives concerning key-escrow
encryption technology and telecommunications trends, which was attended
by Associate Attorney General Webster Hubbell, the issue of a
recommended solution to the law enforcement access problem, or the
digital telephony issue, was discussed."

The Department of Justice withheld many of the documents seen by
Hubbell, including a SECRET report from the FBI on "Requirements For the
Surveillance of Electronic Communications."

The June 30, 1993 letter from Sessions to Reno states that the
Whitewater figure attended a secret White House briefing on U.S.
computer chip policy. In 1993, President Clinton considered mandatory
legislation for a special computer chip called CLIPPER to be
manufactured into all U.S. computers. According to a SECRET FBI report
from 1992, the CLIPPER chip contained a "exploitable feature" which
allowed the Federal Government to intercept and decode computer
communications.

The letter proves Ms. Reno appointed her trusted Assistant Attorney
General Webster Hubbell to over-see the secret National Security Agency
(NSA) encryption chip project in 1993. According to documents obtained
using the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Hubbell attended at least
one other meeting at the National Security Agency (NSA) Headquarters in
May 1993, along with White House lawyers Vince Foster and Bernard
Nussbaum.

Ms. Reno has been heavily involved in the making of computer security
policy of interest to China since 1993. She has also supported a view to
monopolize the computer security industry under the Federal government.

One 1996 CIA report noted that Ms. Reno wanted to monitor all American
domestic computer communications such as e-mail, using a technique to
secretly intercept and decode any messages. According to CIA Director
John Deutch, the government would mandate all computers be equipped with
a special "back-door" system called "key recovery". Federal agents would
use a secret "key" to secretly enter a back door and read any computer
communication.

According to the 1996 report to V.P. Gore by CIA Director Deutch, Ms.
Reno proposed an all out Federal take-over of the computer industry. The
Justice Department, proposed "legislation that would ... ban the import
and domestic manufacture, sale or distribution of encryption that does
not have key recovery."

Prime targets for monitoring would be foreign governments, banks,
corporations, and individuals opposing the Clinton administration. The
keys were to be held by "key recovery agents" licensed by the Commerce
Department.

 "individuals" -- own the elephants.  The elephants are used as beasts of burden in 
private
 enterprise.  They are run over with elephants... elephants are thriving and

 There is no danger of their becoming extinct.  The reason is this:  When elephants 
belong
 to individuals, and represent "wealth" to that person, he takes care of them, 
nurtures
 them, and promotes their well-being AT NO COST TO "SOCIETY."  He pays all this out 
of his
 own pocket, for his own welfare and to produce his own wealth.  It is the same with 
almost
 any "natural resource."  When the govm't owns it, there is a burden on the taxpayer, 
and
 the resource is almost certain to be mis-managed, costly, and in danger of depletion.
 When individuals own resources, they foot the bill for preservation and management 
of the
 resource.  While an individual may needlessly and foolishly exploit or squander his 
little
 portion of the resource, it is unlikely that all owners of similar resources would 
be so
 foolish.

Is there anything so jaw dropping inexplicable than the few who attempt to

"shrines" to Jefferson Davis and Stonewall Jackson.  Take a tour of the South
and your ear will be bent by a guide babbling about how cruel the Yankees were
at Vicksburg.  Listening to them, one would never guess that the South was run
by a gang of slavers who do not at all correspond to those portrayed in Gone
With the Wind as kindly masters taking loving care of some child like people.

Of course, things are complicated and there were many decent Christian
Southerners who smuggled slaves, spied on Southern military units, and
sabotaged when possible.  There were right-wing Northerners who spoke and
acted for the South.  There were slave holding prosperous free blacks in the
South.  There were a few slave holders who did treat their slaves with some
shred of fairness considering the relationship.  The real point is that every
son of the South who involves himself in discussions about the Civil War
should get down on his knees and thank God that the Union won the war thereby
freeing both slave and "free" Southerner.

Thank you for the inspiring story.  Although I am a little bit curious why
exactly a "homosexual, atheist, marxist composition teacher" would object
to your musical composition, presumably, a work that expresses humanity's
movement towards "freedom."

I would imagine that an individual who holds heterodox views
would be interested in "freedom."  But come to think of it, how would you
differentiate music that is "free" from the "unfree" variety?  Isn't music
just music?

 It seems to me that the greatest con of all times has got to be the
  fractional reserve system of banking and its evil off-springs: central
  banking and the IMF. This has caused and continues to cause more hard

  amounts of money have been transferred and continue to be transferred
  from producers to parasites.

 Oh, I forgot. Some people try to graduate from college. Its been so
 long, I forgot. In fact, I guess I really didn't understand the concept
 when I was going to college. I thought you were supposed to be there to
 learn. My major was musical composition. My senior year I tried to get
 an orchestra composition I had written performed called "Pilgrims
 Progress". It was a piece which illustrated in sound the movement of
 humanity towards freedom. You can imagine how that set with my
 homosexual, athiest, marxist composition teacher. He said: "your music
 will be performed over my dead body". Fortunately, I was able to
 restrain myself. I left school without the piece being performed and
 without a degree, but in less then a year it was performed before 4,000
 people by a professional orchestra and I recieved a standing ovation.
 Not long afterwards I recieved a letter from the school saying that I
 would be graduated at the end of the month. The degree hasn't done me
 nearly the good that the experience did. Even if I had never gotten a
 degree, I would be glad I chose the path I did. You can bet if I were in
 school and had to do that thesis I'd be using fractional reserve banking
 as my example!

[CTRL] Fwd: [priory-of-sion] PoS future agenda

1999-01-05 Thread RoadsEnd





From: "Donato Ranzato" [EMAIL PROTECTED]

While re-reading 'Holy Blood Holy Grail' I thought about how the PoS
will react to the bad press it has had the last couple of years.

In Holy Blood Holy Grail the authors state that Pierre Plantard may
actually be a direct descendant of the Merovingian Bloodline. They
conclude/proof this after done some very thorough research. When the
book came out it got some international publicity and shocked a lot of
people with their "revelation". If there ever was a time that the Priory
could have come forward with their "Priest-King" it was in this period.
But the Priory remained silent and elusive.

In the years after the publication people have proofed that Pierre
Plantard is a con-man and not a Merovingian and that the most important
members of the Priory are almost all con-men and possibly engaged in
fraude, blackmail and the spread of disinformation (remember the story
with the Prieure documents). It is stated on this mailinglist that the
Priory has possible links with the Mafia, Opus Dei, OTO,  P2 and a
couple of other shadowy and/or criminal organizations. Not something to
be proud of.

So, the question is how and when will the Priory try to refute these
accusations. IMHO the longer they wait to emerge with the "truth" the
more they will damage their long-term goals.

God Speed,

 Bullshit.  The Indian elephant's in trouble due to loss of it's natural
 habitat...

Maybe I should have said "Domesticated Indian elephants."  You're back to talking
about "wild" elephants that "belong to the people."

 There is no danger of their becoming extinct.

 Again, bullshit.  An elephant is extremely expensive, to buy, to train
 (takes years), and to house and feed adequately...therefore most areas of
 the east where the elephant was once used have replaced the elephant with
 gasoline-driven vehicles to do the same work, as the gas vehicles are
 ultimately cheaper...

Proves my point As long as there was a "use" for elephants, and people were
allowed to own them for their personal use, there was no danger of them becoming
extinct.  As for the rest of the world, I must say that not having ever seen a
"do-do bird" doesn't seem to have had a detrimental effect on me... And since I
can no longer buy elephant-hide boots, and never had a desire to own any ivory,
the extinction of elephants would not effect me much either.  I don't think they
were "put here" for entertainment purposes (i.e. vacation trips to Africa, or even
to the zoo, to "see the elephants.")

[CTRL] Orangutans Suffer from too Much TV

1999-01-05 Thread Hilary Thomas




Orangutans 
Suffer From Too Much TV 
Tuesday, January 5, 1999; 7:10 a.m. EST 
MOSCOW (AP) -- A plan to educate a group of 
orangutans on the joys of family life by watching television backfired after the 
apes became more interested in the tube than each other, The Moscow Times 
reported today. 
The newspaper said keepers at the St. Petersburg Zoo rigged up a TV outside 
the cage of orangutans Monika and Rabu to show them videos on being good 
parents. They took the step after the apes had a baby, Ramon, in November, but 
then started to neglect their offspring. 
Rabu, the male orangutan, became so engrossed in watching TV that he started 
to ignore his mate, Monika, who became upset over his neglect, the paper said. 
``We'll reduce the time of TV watching in order to keep the family 
together,'' zoo director Ivan Korneyev was quoted as saying.

Tom DeLay is rather interesting.  It seems that he and our new speaker,
Hastert, have been working together for a long time.  The Feb 7 issue of "In
These TImes" says "they have been deploying their good cop/bad cop routine in
tandem for years."  They claim that this has put DeLay in the catbird's seat
on the new team.  They also say "Hastert is steeped in the dour and
puritanical traditions of German Protestantism, and his surface geniality and
reputation as a man of his word will serve as the perfect cover for DeLay's
draconian exigencies."  They discuss DeLay's various tactics, etc., and then
say: "Those menaces were backed by the shock troops of the Christian right and
their feldkommandurs--Paul Weyrich, Gary Bauer, James Dobson and Randy
Tate--with whom Delay works hand in glove.  We'll all soon know who DeLay is

THE OCTOPUS - THE TENTACLES OF CORRUPTION


MURDER IN THE MARTINSBURG SHERATON?


By Joel Bleifuss

For more than a year, Danny Casolaro, a Washington D.C. - based
freelance investigator, had been sorting through a web of intrigue--the
S  L debacle, BCCI, Iran-Contra, the contra-connected Wackenhut Corp.,
the Wackenhut-connected Inslaw case, and the Inslaw-connected "October
Surprise."

According to one of his close friends, who asked not to be named,
Casolaro began receiving death threats eight or nine months ago.
"Brother, just make it quick," Casolaro is reported to have told one of
these midnight callers. The last threat came on Monday, August 5,
according to his brother, Anthony.

How quick death came we may never know. On Saturday, August 10, Casolaro
was found dead in Room 517 of the Martinsburg, W. Va., Sheraton. His
body was discovered with 12 incisions in his arms in a bathtub of bloody
water 17 hours after he had called his mother's house at 6 p.m. Friday
to say he was heading home but that he would not make it to his niece's
birthday party. On the following Monday Martinsburg authorities notified by a
cleaning contractor.
Officials are calling the incident an "unattended death" while they
continue their investigation. Family and friends say that suicide is out
of the question. They maintain that Casolaro was not a depressive type,
and that while he did have financial problems, he did not dwell on them.

According to family and friends, before leaving for Martinsburg,
Casolaro had been ecstatic. The pieces of the puzzle were finally
fitting together. He had told them he was going to West Virginia to meet
a source who was to help him nail down a last piece of evidence in his
investigation into the Inslaw software-theft case.

Those close to Casolaro want many questions answered. Where is his
ever-present briefcase? It was not in the motel room. Where is his tape
deck? It is missing. Where were his notes and the outline of his
proposed book, "Behold a Pale Horse," which he had shown to friends days
before his death? The documents were not found in the Sheraton motel
room or in the four boxes of his papers that the family turned over to
ABC News. Why did authorities wait so long to notify the family of his
death? His driver's license said he lived in Falls Church, Va., and all
the Casolaros listed in the 703 area code are his relatives. Why was his
body embalmed before the family was notified? West Virginia law requires
family approval prior to embalming. Who was the man who telephoned
Casolaro's house on Saturday evening? When a housekeeper picked up the
phone, a voice said, "You're dead, you bastard."

MOTIVE FOR MURDER? What was Casolaro investigating that could have put
his life in such danger? David MacMichael is a former CIA analyst who
now directs the Washington office of the Association of National
Security Alumni, a watchdog group. MacMichael had talked to Casolaro on
the phone on Thursday, the day he left for Martinsburg. Casolaro had
made an appointment to meet with him.

Says MacMichael, "providing the death was not a suicide, one can examine
three scenarios. First, Casolaro was developing a theory that a group of
former intelligence officers were members of a for-profit cabal that
Casolaro called "The Octopus." According to his theory, over the past 25
years the Octopus had its tentacles in a number of international
scandals." MacMichael doesn't think such a far-fetched sounding theory
would get Casolaro killed. "If you published their names, pictures and
documents, what kind of book would you have?" asks MacMichael. It would
be dismissed, according to Macmichael, like "a UFO crank book."

Second, Casolaro was looking into the October Surprise, the alleged deal
between the 1980 Reagan presidential campaign and Iranians. That his
death would be connected to this investigation is "nonsense" says
MacMichael, who explains that many journalists are now investigating the
1980 deal, making it unlikely that Casolaro had information significant
enough to endanger his life.

Which leads to the third scenario, that Casolaro was on his way to
collect the final evidence needed to wrap up his investigation of a
scandal that, as MacMichael put it, involves "real crimes, real people
and real money"--the Inslaw case.

[CTRL] Pesticide Exposure Affects Male Fertility

1999-01-05 Thread Hilary Thomas




Thursday December 31 3:57 PM ET 
Pesticide exposure affects male fertility
NEW YORK, Dec 31 (Reuters Health) -- A class of pesticides widely used in the 
developing world may disrupt men's reproductive hormone levels and contribute to 
fertility problems, according to a study in the December issue of the Journal of 
Occupational and Environmental Medicine. 
Previous research findings have suggested that exposure to organophosphate 
pesticides -- such as methyl- and ethylparathion -- can disrupt fertility. In 
experiments with mice, researchers found that exposure to methylparathion was 
associated with abnormal sperm production. 
In the new study, Dr. Xiping Xu of the Harvard School of Public Health in 
Boston, Massachusetts, and colleagues measured pesticide byproducts and 
reproductive hormone levels in urine, blood, and semen samples from 34 Chinese 
men working in a factory producing organophosphate pesticides, and 44 Chinese 
men working in a textile factory. 
After controlling for the men's ages, smoking habits and other factors that 
can affect hormonal levels, the researchers found that men who had relatively 
high levels of exposure to the pesticides showed small but significant sex 
hormone abnormalities. Among other things, these men produced decreased levels 
of testosterone. The greater the exposure, the greater the abnormalities. 
``We conclude that organophosphate pesticides have a small effect on male 
reproductive hormones,'' Xu and colleagues write. To the best of their 
knowledge, this is the first study that examines the effects of organophosphate 
pesticide exposure on the reproductive hormones of pesticide factory workers. 
Further study, with a larger group of men, is warranted to clarify the 
pesticides' effects on both hormone levels and reproductive function, they 
conclude.

 You need to do some research on the subject, H. (with all due respect).
 The Canadian government is subsidizing their producers.

I don't care at all what the Canadian govm't subsidizes or doesn't subsidize.  I would 
be
delighted if they bought every grain of Canadian wheat and gave it to me free.

 Your remarks about agricultural subsidies demonstrates your basic lack of knowledge 
about
 conditions in the agricultural sector.

I freely admit to "lack of knowledge" about conditions in the agricultural sector.  
However,
I don't have to have a great deal of knowledge to know that it is wrong for the govm't 
to
take MY money, against my will, and give it to farmers.  Anything beyond that 
knowledge on
the subject of subsidies is immaterial.

By the way, I just read in this morning's Dallas Morning News that the U.S. 
Agriculture Dept
(which has more employees than there are farmers in the U.S.) has "settled a lawsuit" 
with
Negro farmers, in which the "farmers" will get a $50,000 cash award, plus all debts to 
the
govm't will be canceled, which are estimated to be between $75,000 and $100,000 each.  
Do I
have to be more knowlegable than that to know that I'm being screwed?

 The reason why you should "buy American" is quite simple.  Your dollars are going to
 insure the continued productivity of our domestic economy.

You've taken the bait, I see.  You're telling me that I have some obligation to support
people who otherwise cannot make a living at their chosen profession.  Sir, I am not
responsible for their inept farming or business practices, nor for their choice of how 
to
make a living.  They aren't responsible for mine either, by the way.

 The wheat farmers are Americans who pay taxes, send their kids off to war
 to protect the country.

I pay my taxes, too... But I don't get a subsidy from farmers so I can be 
self-employed...
And as for sending their kids off to war, then they are stupid to boot.  I am not
responsible for other peoples' stupidity.

 If the wheat farmers do well economically, rural America does well...

So, I should pay higher prices than the free market will bear is that right?  So 
"rural
America will do well"??? And, by the same token, I should pay higher prices for 
automobiles
so the United Autoworkers will do well?  And exhorbitant taxes to support inferior 
schools
so the teachers "will do well?"  Give me a break!

 The agricultural sector supports thousands of small businesses throughout the 
American
 Midwest.  Each dollar that is spent in a rural community is "rolled over" several 
times
 through that community.

Good... Spend your own dollars, and stop taking mine... If that's your objective, go 
right
ahead... But don't force me support people who don't give a damn whether or not I have 
to
pay too much for what I buy.

 When you buy American products, you are supporting your country.  It's that simple.

Yep... That's one of the most "simple" things a person could say

 You are indirectly the beneficiary of the economic wellbeing of your fellow citizens.

Maybe so, but I am DIRECTLY the victim of having my money extorted from me.  Anytime 
someone
starts talking about how I will benefit from someone else's govm't support, I 
automatically
reach for my wallet.

 The farmers pay taxes that support basic services like schools, highways, medical
 services...

Then they're being conned, too... Welcome to the club.

 If your fellow citizens go under economically, eventually, YOU will be asked to pay 
for
 their welfare.

"Eventually, my ass!"  I'm already being FORCED to pay for their welfare.  I don't 
recall
being "asked."

 Their economic distress undermines your own economic security.  How so?

They need to get a job that pays a living without extorting my money to subsidize their
lifestyle...

 Re-read your American history.  Take a look at the American Depression. When money is
 taken out of an economy, out of the pockets of ordinary working people, the system
 eventually collapses.

That's my point... "MONEY IS BEING TAKEN OUT OF MY POCKET" and, you're right, the 
system
will indeed collapse.

 Re: Your "tribal mentality" remarks.  They are fundamentally racist and absurd.

Yeah, yeah... You haven't a clue about who I am or what my ideas about "race" are.  As 
for
the results, which is what I commented on, do you deny it?

 First of all, Native Americans did not have a "money" economy.

That's because they didn't have any money Everything is "the property of the 
tribe."
That's why they were living in tents, and why they now live in hovels.  The point is, 
they
created no wealth, and having no one the tax, they were destitute.

 Re: "God made animals for us" comments.  They're made for the plate? An
 interesting argument.  I would only point out that we might consider some
 healthier, "kinder and gentler" (borrowing a phrase) ways of taking care
 of our protein needs. Just a thought.

I don't think its weak at all... Most people don't take care of "other peoples' stuff"

 It resembles the arguments used by white slaveowners during the Abolitionist

It was, I might add, a valid argument.  I've done a bit of research in that aspect of 
economics
and history.  For your information, the typical Negro slave received back, over the 
period of
his life, about 90% of the wealth he produced... He had a longer life expectency than

Topic: White Water 
Written in Blood (An Interview with Michael Sullivan) 
JANUARY Magazine (literary) October, 1998 Linda Richards 
January Magazine 
Written In Blood 
Interview with Michael Sullivan, by Linda Richards 
He doesn't look like a lunatic. Crisply dressed and coifed, his blue eyes 
smile quickly -- though not for our cameras -- and his graying-blond hair 
stays neatly placed. He is, he tells me, a son of the south and this is verified 
by his voice: as close to clipped as a southern accent gets. An educated 
voice, certainly. But one that is, nonetheless, punctuated by the region 
that spawned him. He does not wear a white suit, but if he did it wouldn't 
look strange. In short, he doesn't look or sound at all like someone 
hatching a plot or grinding an ax, though looks can be deceiving. 
If half of the things Michael Sullivan is saying are true, the 
Clinton-Lewinsky scandal starts to look like a children's sandbox creation. 
Interesting for a while, but more crumble than substance. If it's not true, it 
still seems likely that Sullivan is going to sell a lot of books. 
I want to go on record as saying I am not planning on committing 
suicide, Sullivan says earnestly. I plan to live a long, long 
time. 
My interview with Sullivan did not go at all as planned. I arrived expecting 
to speak with the author of an interesting new suspense novel. I planned to 
talk to him about his writing process and perhaps his life, interests and 
favorite pets. The last thing I'd anticipated was being led down a dark path 
of conspiracy featuring some of the largest characters in international 
politics: especially some of those who (ahem) have been getting a lot of 
press in recent months. 
I had, of course, noticed some more than fleeting similarities between one of 
Blood Trail's major characters and a certain former governor from Arkansas. 
This I put down to the richness of fiction and the fact that Sullivan is a 
native of that state. 
However, it would seem that Sullivan's interest runs less to literature than 
it does to high level machinations: at least in this instance. With some 
passion Sullivan spoke at length about what led him to write Blood Trail. 
The fictional work focuses on two men from Arkansas. Robert Davis Prescott 
has been groomed almost from birth to take a place in American history. 
David Farr is the Vietnam Vet whose son is stricken with AIDS from a blood 
transfusion given to him in Canada. Farr wants to find out who is 
responsible, and is somewhat surprised when the trail -- the Blood Trail, if 
you will -- leads back to his home state and eventually to the White House 
and Prescott. 
Sullivan -- though it's not the writer's real name, and he's not talking -- 
is a doctor who says he was a medical practitioner for the Arkansas prison 
system between 1982 and, off and on, to the present time. He says 
that he knew that blood was being drawn from sick and infected Arkansas 
prisoners but he didn't know where the blood was being sold and distributed. 
In 1995, says Sullivan, he learned about infections and death in Canada, 
where the Arkansas blood had ended up. Sullivan says he became determined to 
find out more. The result of that research, says Sullivan, is in the novel Blood 
Trail. A story that while it's almost unbelievable, Sullivan says only 
begins to scratch the surface of the truth. 
Linda Richards: So is Bob Prescott's resemblance to Bill Clinton 
unintentional? 
Michael Sullivan: I had certain information when I started the book. 
Actually, not very much. I worked in the system. I knew they were taking 
blood from very sick people. I knew the group was basically corrupt. And it 
wasn't until years later that I realized that they didn't have a way to 
clean up. It was not until 1995 and the initial Krever investigation was 
kicked off that one article appeared in the Associated Press that said that 
tainted blood in Canada had been taken from Arkansas prisoners. And I said, 
'God Almighty!' because I'd forgotten about it. I was in it. I knew certain 
things. You know, it was like this huge guilt rush hit me because I hadn't 
investigated it. That's not my specialty. I just assumed mistakenly that 
they had a way to manufacture some kind of clean product. 
Suddenly I remembered how Clinton had stood in and protected the HMA [Health 
Management Associates] through everything. Because they'd come under fire 
not because of plasma but because they hired drug addicts and they hired 
guys that had lost their medical licenses and several other things, especially 
dealing with narcotics. They'd come under fire from the media. Clinton had

things up and kill people... Vicksburg isn't, however, a good example to
illustrate cruelty.  There are far better ones.

 Listening to them, one would never guess that the South was run by a gang of
 slavers who do not at all correspond to those portrayed in Gone With the Wind as
 kindly masters taking loving care of some child like people.

You learned this in public school, no doubt.  I will challenge you to share your
evidence, and will in like manner share mine... Your choice of words indicates
that you prefer emotionalism to objective discussion, however..  For instance, the
elected government of the South was no more a "gang of slavers" than was the north
a "gang of slave traders."

 Of course, things are complicated and there were many decent Christian
 Southerners who smuggled slaves, spied on Southern military units, and
 sabotaged when possible.

You mean the traitors?

 There were right-wing Northerners who spoke and acted for the South.  There were
 slave holding prosperous free blacks in the South.  There were a few slave
 holders who did treat their slaves with some shred of fairness considering the
 relationship.

A few?  I believe the documentation of the era supports that such was the norm.
Unless, of course, your study of history is mainly pulp such as "Uncle Tom's
Cabin."

 The real point is that every son of the South who involves himself in
 discussions about the Civil War should get down on his knees and thank God that
 the Union won the war thereby freeing both slave and "free" Southerner.

Absurd... The war was never intended to free the slave, but to enslave the
master... and its objective was accomplished.

And I, for one, will not "thank God" for having my country over-run by the
imperial United States, and making my state a mere administrative extension of an
over-bearing and increasingly intolerable Central Govm't...

 Apocalypse 2000

 Copyright©1999 by Michael A. Hoffman II http://www.hoffman-info.com

 As we approach the Year 2000 and millennial madness begins to manifest in
 all its amusing pagan frenzy, I am not so much interested in the claims
 made for what shall or shall not transpire after the great chronological
 divide has been crossed, but rather in what people believe about those
 claims.

 There may be little of consequence in the claim of industrial and
 technological collapse on Jan. 1, 2000 but if people believe a catastrophe
 will occur, they will by their own volition and credulity, make it come to
 pass.

 The widespread belief in and resulting panic associated with the Y2K doom
 scenario indicates an enormous fatigue. The denizens of the technological
 imperium are weary of their gadgets and believe they should be punished
 for using them, so they conceive of a world reduced to the Neolithic.

 I do not believe that a population of superior people would have any
 significant difficulties with ³Y2K² since the history of the West is the
 history of surmounting technological difficulties.

 I have seen some hint that a technological remedy to the Y2K computer
 glitch has been at hand since last summer but is being withheld.
 But aside from that, I am fascinating by the emergence of the cult of
 limitation which accompanies the mob reaction to Y2K.

 Suddenly man is paralyzed by two zeros.

 Two zeros in a Unix system will collapse western civilization.

 What a complete reversal of the spirit of OE69, which saw German
 scientists
 Arthur Rudolf and Werner Von Braun place men on the moon.

 Yet this new sense of limitation is not all bad. It signifies a profound
 anxiety over the direction of our technological imperium as it grows
 increasingly alien and artificial, particularly in the pharmaceutical
 usurpation of agriculture and the growth of gene-manipulated modern
 ³foods.²

 But these appropriate concerns are being manipulated and diverted into mob
 panic. Monsanto and the other corporations who are at present the
 equivalent of the city-states of Medici Italy--that is to say, nations
 unto themselves on the British East India model--will emerge stronger
 after the Y2K millennial panic is in full swing, as will FEMA and the
 other departments of the Federal leviathan.

 The rulers of the age require chiefly one form of energy from the masses:
 fear.
 The chief agent of these rulers in our time is the American right wing,
 the greatest repository of fear and fear-mongering rumors, which almost
 always concern the alleged enormous power of our rulers and the dark fate
 they have in store for us.

 Being cowans and dupes, these rightists have no ³knowledge of the
 equilibrium,² no knowledge that fear is the glue that holds the Evil
 Empire together.

 More than an adhesive, fear is a magnet, attracting precisely that which
 is most feared and bringing it into materialization as reality.
 It is for this reason that the Bible states, ³Fear God and you need fear
 no other.²

 But the American right wing is a cesspool of fear--fear of the U.N., the
 FBI, Bill Clinton, the ³Jews,² and the media. They have woven these
 disparate forces into an invincible web of power over themselves and
 constantly imagine impending doom and gloom.

 Without even knowing it, the Right is practicing pagan sorcery by just
 such means. I have just described the mechanics of primitive witchcraft,
 or perhaps we should call this self-fulfilling prophecy, ³wishcraft.²

 It has been used by harlequin hucksters at market stands of the Middle
 Ages and in our day by Gallup  pollsters, Madison Avenue advertisers and a
 legion of agents planted deep in the right wing as well as in the pulpits
 of Judeo-Churchianity, both Catholic and Protestant.

 To the historian this ³End Time² situation is so familiar as to be
 humorous.
 On December 31 of the year 999, at the steps of the old basilica of St.
 Peter¹s in Rome, a throng of weeping, cowering and trembling peasants
 awaited the end of the world. They fought with one another and tore at
 each others garments. Some had purchased various amulets and ³relics² at
 great cost to ward off the impending ³doom.²

 Others had abandoned their homes in the towns and joined

Re: government subsidies.  I don't disagree with you on this point.  Why
should the government subsidize a particular economic sector (or special
interest group) and not others?  But that is how the game of power is
played.  The government is particularly generous to business interests of
various sorts: Savings and Loan bailouts, bailouts to Mexican investors,
bailouts to Wall Street junk bond investors, subsidies to defense
contractors not to mention billions of dollars in armaments to
oppressive dictators in central America, South America and wherever else
peasants are seeking to overthrow their rulers.  So, the subject of tax
dollars going to finance any number of dubious schemes/boondoggles/etc. is
a complex one.
My tax dollars have supported the murder of millions of peasants around
the world... in order to help some greedy corporate elites to make money
off of the misery of poor people...  I had no vote on the matter.  Why
should my tax dollars go to support United Fruit in Guatemala and El

 By the way, I just read in this morning's Dallas Morning News that the U.S.

  The wheat farmers are Americans who pay taxes, send their kids off to war
  to protect the country.

 I pay my taxes, too... But I don't get a subsidy from farmers so I can be 
self-employed...
 And as for sending their kids off to war, then they are stupid to boot.  I am not
 responsible for other peoples' stupidity.

  If the wheat farmers do well economically, rural America does well...

 So, I should pay higher prices than the free market will bear is that right?  So 
"rural

automobiles
 so the United Autoworkers will do well?  And exhorbitant taxes to support inferior

  The agricultural sector supports thousands of small businesses throughout the

 Then it requires you to fill out forms accounting for the
 missing cows..

of Mexican trucks entering U.S. commercial zones and the amount of

the condition of trucks entering California are "much better" than those

Few Mexican Trucks Face Inspection, DOT Inspector General Report
Charges

A Department of Transportation Office of Inspector General report has
found that "far too few trucks" are being inspected at the U.S.-Mexico
border, with the exception of California.

"At one crossing in El Paso, Texas, which receives an average of 1,300
trucks daily, only one inspector is on duty and he can inspect only 10
to 14 trucks daily. At other crossings, there are times when there is no
inspector at all," according to a memorandum accompanying the report.


Of the trucks inspected, almost half do not comply with U.S. safety
standards, the report, released on DOT's web site Jan. 4, found. The
report said that 44 percent of inspected trucks from Mexico were turned
away because of safety violations.

The report addressed the Federal Highway Administration's programs to
ensure the safety of commercial trucks entering the United States from
Mexico and Canada. It focused on plans to implement North American
Free Trade Agreement provisions on cross-border trucking with Mexico.

Mexican trucks are currently limited to operate in designated
commercial zones, which generally encompass areas extending up to
20 miles north of U.S. border cities. In December 1995, the United
States put on hold trucking applications from Mexican carriers seeking
to operate freely in U.S. border states pursuant to NAFTA provisions.
The United States has conducted discussions with Mexico on highway
safety rules but the dispute remains unresolved. Under NAFTA,
commercial trucks should be able to travel the interiors of the three
NAFTA countries by Jan. 1, 2000.

More Inspectors Urged

Actions being undertaken to prepare for the opening of the U.S.-Mexico
border to Mexican long-haul trucks do not provide "reasonable
assurance" that the trucks will comply with U.S. safety standards, the
report stated.

"With the exception of California, neither FHWA's nor the States' plans
provide for an adequate presence of inspectors at border crossings for
trucks currently operating in the commercial zones ... A more robust
border inspection presence is needed, at least in the near term, to both
encourage and reinforce the importance of Mexican efforts to establish
its own safety oversight program," the report said.

FMWA, the report continued, was looking to the states to provide
needed inspectors rather than providing federal resources. The border
states, except for California, failed to provide enough inspectors at
border crossings but looked to the federal government to provide
inspectors, it added.

The report said that a "direct correlation" exists between the condition of
Mexican trucks entering U.S. commercial zones and the amount of
inspection resources at the border. With the best inspection practices,
the condition of trucks entering California are "much better" than those
entering other border states, the report said.

Mexican trucks entering through Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas are
unlikely to face inspection since those states do not have enough
inspectors on duty during all commercial hours.

The report recommended several alternatives for increasing the number
of inspectors at the border, with costs ranging from about $3 million to
about $7 million. Because of inconsistencies in approaches, FHWA
needs a NAFTA program director to oversee an effective cross-border
traffic management program, the report urged.

Better coordination is also called for among the federal entities
monitoring border activities, the report urged. "Visits to a border
crossing clearly show considerable vehicle congestion. Multiple Federal
and State agencies have jurisdiction over a variety of border-crossing
issues and differing inspection responsibilities, which need to be
balanced with the expeditious movement of traffic," the report said.

Another recommendation made by the report was the establishment of
a federal interagency group to coordinate border issues.

"Although views differ about whether a 44 percent out-of-service rate for
Mexican trucks is statistically representative of the universe of Mexican
trucks that are noncompliant, there currently is no other measure to use
as a frame of reference;

U.S. Fighter Jets Fire on Iraq Planes

By ROBERT BURNS
.c The Associated Press

WASHINGTON (Jan. 5) - Four U.S. fighter jets fired missiles at Iraqi planes
today in the ''no-fly'' zone over southern Iraq, a senior U.S. administration
official said. It was the first American-Iraqi air-to-air confrontation in
more than six years.

The U.S. missiles apparently failed to hit the Iraqi planes, although one
Iraqi plane was believed to have crashed, apparently after running out of
fuel, the official said.

The official Iraqi News Agency said Iraqi planes ''confronted and clashed with
the aggressive British and American aircraft'' before ''the aggressive
aircraft withdrew. All of our air force planes returned to base safely.''

The American planes - two Air Force F-15 strike aircraft and two Navy F-14
fighters - returned safely after the confrontation, the U.S. official said,
speaking on condition of anonymity. The Navy planes were from the aircraft
carrier USS Carl Vinson.

The incident, which happened at about 2:30 a.m. EST, marked an escalation of
tensions between Iraq and the United States and Britain over enforcing the
''no-fly'' zones in northern and southern Iraq. Iraq considers the
restrictions illegal and has vowed to defy them.

President Clinton has said U.S. and British forces will continue banning Iraqi
flights in the restricted zones, arguing that Saddam Hussein's military still
represents a threat to minority Kurds in the north and Shiite Muslims in the
south.

David Leavy, spokesman for the White House National Security Council, said
today, ''The president has made it clear we will enforce the no-fly zones
vigorously. The Iraqi violations are at their own peril.''

A senior Pentagon official said the air-to-air altercation was the first in
Iraq since Dec. 27, 1992, when a U.S. F-16 shot down an Iraqi MiG-25.

Pentagon spokesman Ken Bacon said there were two separate incidents 15 minutes
apart, one involving U.S. F-15s and Iraqi MiG-25s, the other U.S. F-14s and
MiG-25s. U.S. warplanes fired a total of six missiles during the two
incidents.

All told, military officials counted eight separate violations of the no-fly
zone today involving 13 to 15 Iraqi aircraft.

The Iraqi planes turned quickly after being fired upon, Bacon said. ''They
escaped without being shot down.''

At a Pentagon briefing, Bacon defended the accuracy of the missiles.

''Air-to-air combat is an extremely engaging and demanding type of war,'' he
said, adding there were still several unknowns, including the distance between
the aircraft when the missiles were fired.

Bacon said there were reports that a MiG crashed because it ran out of gas.
''We believe that to be the case but we do not have certainty on that right
now,'' he said.

Prior to today, there had been two incidents in the no-fly zones - neither
involving air-to-air combat - since the U.S. and British airstrikes of Dec.
16-19.

On Dec. 28, U.S. warplanes fired on an Iraqi surface-to-air missile battery in
the northern zone after being fired on from the ground. Iraq said four Iraqi
soldiers were killed and seven wounded.

On Dec. 30, U.S. warplanes hit an anti-aircraft battery in the south. Iraq
says a farmer was killed and two other civilians wounded.

Saddam announced earlier in a statement read on state-run Iraq television that
the no-fly zones imposed on his country have no basis in international law and
vowed that Iraq will fight violations of its airspace ''with all its courage
and bravery.''

Meantime, the State Department said one of Saddam's sons directed the murder
of hundreds of Iraqi dissidents last November in the Shiite region of southern
Iraq.

Spokesman James P. Rubin said Monday that tensions in the south, a stronghold
of anti-Saddam sentiment, rose after the assassinations of two senior Islamic
clerics this summer.

He said there have been reports of mass arrests throughout the southern region
and in the Shiite areas outside Baghdad over the past six weeks - in addition
to hundreds of summary executions of dissidents at two prisons.

''The repression reportedly reached a peak in November, with hundreds killed
in actions directed personally by Qusai Hussein,'' Rubin said.

''Regime military action against the Shiites is an intrinsic and continuing
part of this campaign of repression. Since 1991 the regime has been carrying
out the widespread and brutal repression of the Shiite population of southern
Iraq.''

Rubin said opposition sources from the Shiite areas reported that seven
villages were recently destroyed or turned into military outposts.

He added that more than 2,000 civilians who were unable to flee were
reportedly taken hostage by regime forces and possibly sent to Baghdad. They
were made up largely of the old, the infirm, women and children, he said.

[CTRL] Update on London Shell Office occupation

  News release Tuesday, January 5, 1999
  Shell protest activists pledge to step up campaigns through 1999

  Yesterday's protest at Shell-Mex House in the Strand, London, ended with
  the environmental and human rights activists released without charge and
  pledging to continue challenging corporate hegemony. Police ejected the
  protesters from the building for a second time today as they leafleted
  Shell workers in the building's foyer.

  The action on January 4 involved a dozen smartly dressed anti-corporate
  executives breaching security to enter the building. They then
  barricaded themselves into top management offices including those of the
  new Shell-UK boss Malcolm Brinded and outgoing boss Chris Fay. From the
  offices the protesters used a lap-top computer and mobile phone to relay
  live pictures and updates of the protest to a Shell-style website at
  http://www.kemptown.org/shell
  After 6 hours, riot police smashed through the office walls and arrested
  all the protesters.

  The activists described the protest as an act of solidarity with
  indigenous resistance to Shell in Nigeria. The protesters in London
  demanded compliance with the demands of the Ijaw ethnic group for Shell
  to leave their traditional lands and for an end to corporate-backed
  military repression. Chris Fay refused to negotiate with the activists
  and called the Ijaw demands 'irrational.'

  Killings of Niger Delta activists by soldiers were reported yesterday by
  Nigerian based groups Environmental Rights Action and ND-HERO as having
  reached 240 since the New Year. The killings follow an increase of
  direct action in the Niger Delta over the last 2 years by youths angry
  at the continuing poverty of the oil-rich areas and the pollution caused
  by oil companies's outdated equipment and negligent performance.

  500 Ijaw communities from across the Niger Delta had issued the Kaiama
  Declaration on 11 December 1998 giving Shell, Chevron and other
  transnationals until 30 December 1998 to leave their land - or face
  eviction. Military Administrator of Bayelsa State, Lt. Col Paul Obi,
  declared a State of Emergency, suspending all civil liberties and
  imposing a dusk-to-dawn curfew on the entire state, the first such
  declaration since the Biafra-Nigeria civil war.

  They Ijaws launched Operation Climate Change on January 1, 1999, saying
  that activists would shut down oil flow stations and their polluting gas
  flares between January 1 and 10. Thousands of troops have now been sent
  to smash occupations of oil installations, disperse rallies and provide
  a military shield for continued oil production across the Delta.

  The activists in London chose the first day of work in the last year
  before the new Millenium to send a message to corporations that 1999
  will be a year of increased globalisation of protest. Activists said
  that the Shell protest gave a foretaste of direct action to come. A
  spokesperson said yesterday, "We mean business. This is the turning
  point that will see the end of corporate dominance."

[CTRL] Fwd: [CIA-DRUGS] ALERT - NO CIA DRUG HEARINGS IN JANUARY! - Calculus Unchanged

1999-01-05 Thread RoadsEnd





From: "Mike Ruppert" [EMAIL PROTECTED]

CIA-DRUGS ALERT!

THERE WILL BE NO HEARINGS ON VOLUME II IN THE HOUSE PERMANENT SELECT
COMMITTEE ON INTELLIGENCE IN FEBRUARY

11:53 AM - Tues, Jan, 5, 1998

Los Angeles - Just minutes ago I hung up after speaking with a source on the
House Permanent Select committee on Intelligence (HPSCI). The source stated
that, contrary to previously published reports in The San Jose Mercury News,
it would not be possible for HPSCI to hold hearings on Volume II any sooner
than February. The cited reasons for this are telling.

The Committee is not yet constituted and there are several key vacancies.
Ranking Democrat Norman Dicks (D), Washington has rotated out of the
Committee after eight years. This was mandatory. Jane Harman (R) CA, left
the House to run for Governor and Congressman David Skaggs (D), CO has
retired.

These vacancies leave open the possibility for serious and important
developments. The Ranking Democratic member will wield enormous influence
and will, next to the Chairman (retired CIA operative Porter Goss), have a
lot to say about the scope and nature of the hearings on Vol. II. The new
ranking member will be chosen by House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt who
will, no doubt, consult with President Clinton beforehand.

Wish List: Maxine Waters as a new member of the Committee. Better yet - as
ranking member!

Given the pressure already placed on the Committee by public pressure to
hold well publicized hearings with a reasonable witness list I now think it
unlikely that HPSCI will hold hearings at all before the planned April 29th
demonstration at Florence and Normandie.

My story on the Calculus of Impeachment including CIA drug dealing has been
picked up by the Progressive Review www.prorev.com and apparently the Drudge
report as well. I had four visitors to my web site, www.copvcia.com,  this
AM from the drudge page. The progressive review has added additional
material making my scenario even more likely and credible.

That story is producing the biggest "AHA!" I have ever heard from both the
left and the right. A lot of people are now actually reading Vol. II.

Remember that the Bully Pulpit can, at any time, draw attention to Volume
II. So can the people if they put their mind to it.

more gun-control laws.

o   At its 1998 convention, the NEA passed resolutions
denouncing school vouchers and opposing home schooling --

"protection of the Earth's finite resources" and raise
awareness of overpopulation, "global warming, ozone
depletion and acid precipitation."

health insurance at taxpayers' expense, and would use

than for tax cuts.

Thank you, Hawk, for the documentation.  I apologize for any ad hominem
remarks I might have made..

I have read Vogel.  (I have a degree in American history.)  Vogel argued
that the majority of slaves were not inhumanely or cruelly treated.. I
would agree (if we define inhumane treatment in terms of whippings,
beatings, and being malnourished.)  Yes, the slaveowners did take care of
their property.  But even the pampered "house niggers" could be bought and
sold at the whim of their masters..
Re: Biblical support for slavery.  Of course.  "Slaves obey your masters,"
etc...  Sure. Slavery was a respected institution in the ancient world...
no doubt about it. As well as the Biblical injunction to not tolerate
witches, etc.  The Bible condoned a number of questionable practices..


I haven't read Dabney...but I have read the pro-slavery tracts of the
period and I'm familiar with the arguments.

 Not that I think you will bother to check it out, but one primary source is "Time On 
the Cross - The
 Economics of American Negro Slavery," by Pulitzer Prize-winning economist Robert W. 
Fogel.

 This is an extremely well-documented book by a man who's initial purpose was to 
debunk the idea that
 slavery as practiced in the South was inhumane and cruel.  The facts didn't 
substantiate his thesis,
 but he was principled enough to publish the book anyway.  He wrote a later book in 
which he expressed
 his disapproval of slavery on "moral" grounds... But the facts I mentioned were 
accurate
 non-the-less.  You might also want to read "A Defense of Virginia and the South," by 
R.L. Dabney.

 Regarding the "moral" aspect, I suggest a reading of the Bible and its teachings on 
the institution of
 slavery.

Okay--so they're rounding up these folks because there is a

Now...where do they put them until after the Millenium event? Will

Seems like a double-bind here.  And an interesting ethical  and

 Is there anything so jaw dropping inexplicable than the few who attempt to
 make the South out as a victim of the North over the Civil War?  There are
 "shrines" to Jefferson Davis and Stonewall Jackson.  Take a tour of the South
 and your ear will be bent by a guide babbling about how cruel the Yankees were
 at Vicksburg.  Listening to them, one would never guess that the South was run
 by a gang of slavers who do not at all correspond to those portrayed in Gone
 With the Wind as kindly masters taking loving care of some child like people.

 Of course, things are complicated and there were many decent Christian
 Southerners who smuggled slaves, spied on Southern military units, and
 sabotaged when possible.  There were right-wing Northerners who spoke and
 acted for the South.  There were slave holding prosperous free blacks in the
 South.  There were a few slave holders who did treat their slaves with some
 shred of fairness considering the relationship.  The real point is that every
 son of the South who involves himself in discussions about the Civil War
 should get down on his knees and thank God that the Union won the war thereby
 freeing both slave and "free" Southerner.

   I was born and raised in Michigan. Most of my ancestors were in
Europe at the time, though I believe one was an doctor in the Union
army. However, I have lived in Atlanta since I was 15 so it may be
charged that I am not neutral on this. (Interestingly, many of my
friends who are the descendents of slave owners and Confederate soldiers
probably believe as you).

   After many years of study (especially through input from a black
friend of mine and observation of southerners of both races over the
past thirty plus years) I have come to the conclusion that the nation
and the south and even the black population of the south would probably
have been better off if Lincoln had not forced the south through
military means back into the union. (And, I believe that slavery
probably would have ended within 20 years and subsequent relations
between the races would have been much better). I believe now that the
"Civil War" was mainly caused by the tariff question and only
exasperated by the slave issue. (Lincoln in his first inaugural address
invites the south back into the union with slavery, but paying tariffs).
These tariffs were designed to benefit the northern manufacturers and
helped to create the "robber barrons". The post "Civil War" result was
great hardship on both the white and black races in the south. To say
that the "every son of the South who involves himself in discussions
about the Civil War should get down on his knees and thank God that the
Union won the war thereby freeing both slave and "free" Southerner"
shows a complete lack of knowledge about the war and its effects.

$110 billion more for Pentagon over six years

Clinton to propose biggest military spending boost since Reagan

By Martin McLaughlin
5 January, 1999

The Clinton administration will propose the biggest increase in Pentagon
spending since 1984, at the height of the Reagan military buildup, in the
budget it submits to Congress next month. Clinton announced the huge rise
in military spending in his weekly radio speech January 2.

The rise of $12 billion this year and $110 billion over six years comes out
of discussions between the White House and the Joint Chiefs of Staff over
the last four months. The budget will provide for a 4.4 percent
across-the-board raise in military pay, the biggest since 1984 and well
above the inflation rate, with additional raises targeted towards mid-level
officers, noncommissioned officers and skilled technicians.

The bulk of the increased spending will provide expensive new hardware for
each of the three services: new F-22 fighter jets for the Air Force, new
Comanche attack helicopters for the Army, new missile-firing warships for
the Navy. The result will be the first sustained long-term increase in
military spending since the accession of Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in
1985.

US military spending has declined steadily since the end of the Cold War,
with the exception of 1991, when there was a brief upswing to pay for the
Persian Gulf war. (Most of the costs of this military operation were
subsidized by Japan, Germany and other nations heavily dependent on oil
imports from the region.)

The scale of the US military budget is already staggering, especially since
the Cold War arms race with the Soviet Union ended a decade ago, and the
resources of the Pentagon dwarf those of potential rivals. The increase
alone, $110 billion over six years, is larger than the combined total
budgets of the next two largest military powers, Russia and China, which
spend about $50 billion each.

The total Pentagon budget will top $276 billion next year, and rise
steadily to $296 billion annually by 2005, an amount which exceeds the
total spending of all the other NATO countries, Russia, China and Japan
combined. Yet even these proposed spending levels have been criticized by
the military brass and denounced by congressional Republicans as
inadequate.

Senator James Imhofe of Oklahoma, chairman of the Senate subcommittee on
military preparedness and a close ally of the Christian Coalition, attacked
Clinton's budget proposal, saying, "He's personally responsible for the
defamation of our defense system and our hollow forces. The president is
going to try to make it look like he's a pro-defense president. It's an
outrage."

A major factor in the Pentagon buildup is the increasing turn by the US to
unilateral military interventions, as in Iraq, and the deployment of US
forces in regional trouble spots like Bosnia, Kosovo and Somalia. Some $2
billion out of the $12 billion in additional spending for the coming fiscal
year is for the US forces in Bosnia.

Coming on the eve of the Senate consideration of Clinton's impeachment and
removal from office, the shift of policy on the military budget represents
yet another olive branch to the president's congressional opponents. It
follows the four-day bombing of Iraq and the White House embrace of
proposals for partial privatization of Social Security, each step a
concession to the far-right elements which are

My understanding of things is like this:
There is no easy answer software that will automatically convert the data and
store it.  Many of the non-compliant computers are very old and run their own
proprietary systems, which software was written by one or two independant
programmers say 25 years ago.  A large part of the problem is that the code
for many of these systems is either lost or was never documented.  Many of
these programs were rush jobs, and the code is very sloppy and hard to figure.
In some cases, the original programmers are dead.   In order to export the
data, new programmers must be hired to first figure out _how_ to export the
data.  They have to reverse engineer the original code in order to figure
things out and then convert the data into something a compliant program can
understand.
The only other solution is to print out ALL of the original data and hire
people to input it all by hand into a new program.  That could take a long
time as well, but may be the only solution for some ailing organizations who
are having no luck with their original code.  But then, you run the risk of
human error in the data entry process, so go figure.
That's all I know about that.

 Bullshit.  The Indian elephant's in trouble due to loss of it's natural

Maybe I should have said "Domesticated Indian elephants."  You're back to talking
about "wild" elephants that "belong to the people."

And just WHERE do you think those 'domesticated Indian elephants' get
PARKED?

Do you really think that privately owned Indian elephants in the
increasingly urbanized southeast Asia get put into garages, complete with
automatic dooropeners, every night?

I stand by my statement...the DOMESTICATED Indian elephant is also in
trouble, due to the loss of its natural habitat.


Proves my point As long as there was a "use" for elephants, and people were
allowed to own them for their personal use, there was no danger of them becoming
extinct.

Proves absolutely nothing of what you claim...your contention was that
AFRICAN elephants should be privately owned like some Indian elephants
are...ignoring the FACT that African elephants are basically untrainable.

You also ignore the fact of the USES the Indian elephant was put to, and
therefore fail to recognize WHY the Indian elephant, privately owned tho
many of them may be, is becoming increasingly rare...

It would make as much sense to argue that Saudis and Kuwaitis should go
back to using camels instead of driving cars...


I don't think they
were "put here" for entertainment purposes (i.e. vacation trips to Africa, or even
to the zoo, to "see the elephants.")

I would not presume to second-guess God's mind in WHY elephants...or any
other species...was put on Earth...neither would I presume to state that
eliminating any species would have little, or no, effect on the greater
whole...

But my guess is that God will treat each one of us by the way we treated
the lesser species in our care/dominion...

Behold the real crimes of the Clinton Administration. Still, what goes
around comes around. China bankrolls American politicians who would impose a
Singapore style police state on the US. Its reasons are to stop American
support for Chinese dissidents. This is exactly what the US has done for
years in Latin America in particular. Now we know how it feels to be on the
recieving end. Clinton collaborates with China the same way Pinochet
collaborated with the US. And our much vaunted ruling class turns out to be
vulnerable to corruption from outside, just as Mexico's is.

Hubbell


http://www.worldnetdaily.com/bluesky_smith/19990105_xcsof_administra.shtml

A newly de-classified document from the FBI confirms that
Attorney General Reno appointed Webster Hubbell to a secret
computer chip project intended to bug America.  The document, a
1993 letter from FBI Director William Sessions to Janet Reno,
was obtained from the Department of Justice using the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA).

The FBI letter to Reno states "During the June 30, 1993 meeting
with the National Security Council staff to discuss the status
of the Presidential Decision and Review Directives concerning
key-escrow encryption technology and telecommunications trends,
which was attended by Associate Attorney General Webster
Hubbell, the issue of a recommended solution to the law
enforcement access problem, or the digital telephony issue, was
discussed."

The Department of Justice withheld many of the documents seen by
Hubbell, including a SECRET report from the FBI on "Requirements
For the Surveillance of Electronic Communications."

The June 30, 1993 letter from Sessions to Reno states that the
Whitewater figure attended a secret White House briefing on U.S.
computer chip policy.  In 1993, President Clinton considered
mandatory legislation for a special computer chip called CLIPPER
to be manufactured into all U.S. computers.  According to a
SECRET FBI report from 1992, the CLIPPER chip contained a
"exploitable feature" which allowed the Federal Government to
intercept and decode computer communications.

The letter proves Ms. Reno appointed her trusted Assistant
Attorney General Webster Hubbell to over-see the secret National
Security Agency (NSA) encryption chip project in 1993.
According to documents obtained using the Freedom of Information
Act (FOIA) Hubbell attended at least one other meeting at the
National Security Agency (NSA) Headquarters in May 1993, along
with White House lawyers Vince Foster and Bernard Nussbaum.

Ms. Reno has been heavily involved in the making of computer
security policy of interest to China since 1993.  She has also
supported a view to monopolize the computer security industry
under the Federal government.

One 1996 CIA report noted that Ms. Reno wanted to monitor all
American domestic computer communications such as e-mail, using
a technique to secretly intercept and decode any messages.
According to CIA Director John Deutch, the government would
mandate all computers be equipped with a special "back-door"
system called "key recovery".  Federal agents would use a secret
"key" to secretly enter a back door and read any computer
communication.

According to the 1996 report to V.P. Gore by CIA Director
Deutch, Ms. Reno proposed an all out Federal take-over of the
computer industry.  The Justice Department, proposed
"legislation that would ... ban the import and domestic
manufacture, sale or distribution of encryption that does not
have key recovery."

Prime targets for monitoring would be foreign governments,
banks, corporations, and individuals opposing the Clinton
administration.  The keys were to be held by "key recovery
agents" licensed by the Commerce Department.

According to Congressional investigators, documents from
Hubbell's personal schedule for 1993 show that the Whitewater
figure met multiple times at the White House on a top secret
computer chip project called CLIPPER.  Hubbell met with the then
National Security Council (NSC) advisor George Tenet.  Tenet is
currently the Director of the CIA.

According to George Tenet's SECRET White House email, Ron Brown
insisted that the Commerce Department be one of the key holders
or be in charge of licensing key holders.

Hubbell resigned from the Justice Department in April of 1994.
In late June 1994, Lippo boss James Riady met with John Huang
and Bill Clinton during five days of White House visits.  Early
the next week, a Lippo unit paid Hubbell about $100,000.

In December 1994, Hubbell pled

   Good point. Maybe the central conspirators are running
 the bug-fixing racket and planned the bug crisis. They'll
 cash in to the tune of billions and then sit back in their
 remote estates while Y2K culls the herd. Several people
 have told me they've read or heard accounts of programmers
 who warned people years ago about Y2K, and they were just
 ignored. Could be psychology, or maybe it was the plan.


   First, I think that is basically what they are doing. However, it
isn't as automatic as you might think. Also, there seem to be some
inbedded systems that may run into a problem with this and they have to
be removed from the equipment and then reinstalled. Plus there is the
problem of testing all this once you have fixed it. Have you ever gotten
any software that had a bug? Supposedly the company ran it through its
paces and did not find it. Now there is a problem and they have to spend
money sending you a fix. Well, they probably tested it, but there were
so many variables that they could not test them all. So they sent it out
and after a while they fixed all the problems that cropped up. That's
basically the situation now. They will probably fix most everything, but
there will still be problems that won't turn up until 1/1/2000.
Unfortunately, it is not just one program that is going to have
problems. Its going to be a whole lot of programs having little problems
(or maybe big ones). That's what the problem is. And it is very
difficult to figure out just how bad those problems will be and how
easily they will be fixed.
   I just talked to a fellow who was one of the top techies for Bell. He
said that the phones would not go down because of any software problem
with dates. However, he did say that the maintenance software had to be
fixed (when to change batteries, etc). He said that he told his boss
back in 1976 when they were doing an upgrade on the software that they
were using then that they would have a problem with the software in
2000. His supervisor said that she would be retired by then so it wasn't
a problem for her. And that was it.
   I also know a fellow who is working on y2k for nuclear power plant
computers. He told me "expect weeks without electricity".

Vol I   THE JOSHUA REPORT   No. #13




"...We can't be so fixated on our desire to
Preserve the Rights of ORDINARY Americans..."
- President Bill Clinton
USA TODAY 3/11/93

PART III of 4
WILLIAM JEFFERSON CLINTON ...
ELECTED Official or CFR APPOINTEE?

[GAMES THEY NEVER TAUGHT
US IN SCHOOL!]

If PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON can't be bothered with upholding the CONSTITUTION,
and preserving OUR RIGHTS as "ORDINARY AMERICANS," just exactly who IS he working
for??? [You gotta admit this would certainly explain how he got in the position he's in
today!] CLINTON - (1) a working member of the MOB [international organized crime], and
(2) a 33rd-degree MASON - has sworn his allegiance to the (3) UNITED NATIONS. He sits 
on
the (4) COUNCIL OF 300, belongs to the (5) TRILATERAL COMMISSION, the (6)
BILDERBERGERS, and, of course, the (7) COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS [CFR]. The
important thing to remember about all of these organizations - besides the obvious 
point
that they are all incorporated BUSINESSES - is that EVERY ONE OF THESE HAVE TAKEN AN
OATH TO DESTROY AMERICA! If we examine these organizations one by one, maybe we
can figure out WHY - and [with Billy Boy's help] just how far they have progressed to 
that
deadline of 2000:

(1) "...[When Chicago-area CONGRESSMAN HENRY HYDE] was a State Legislator,
he corrupted other state and federal officials to instrumentally protect a GANGSTER-
OWNED gambling casino on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. The toll bridge linking the
place with Nassau was owned by then-PRESIDENT RICHARD M. NIXON, now by Nixon's
Estate. ...Like Nixon, HYDE has been part of NAVAL INTELLIGENCE assigned to the
CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY [retiring with the rank of Commander]...

"Hyde became part of the spy agency's worldwide covert funding and political
assassination apparatus, masquerading as the NUGAN HAND BANK...Upon the collapse of
NUGAN HAND BANK in 1980 and the supposed destruction of their records, their worldwide
espionage and dirty tricks funding, disguised as banking...was taken over by their
successor, HOUSEHOLD INTERNATIONAL and HOUSEHOLD BANK...now headquartered in a
Chicago suburb near a convenient suburb airport...HENRY HYDE has a large financial 
stake
in HOUSEHOLD...

"Upon the collapse of the Chicago suburban American Heritage Savings  Loan
Association, the Federal Home Loan Bank, acting as a midwife, arranged its take-over by
HOUSEHOLD. The cover-up included sending some of American Heritage's officials to
federal prison to shut them up. Keeping the criminal matter from getting into HENRY
HYDE's complicity in the affair was Assistant Federal Prosecutor Susan Bogart, now 
part of
a special Chicago team on Hyde"s CLINTON IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY. After being accused
in a published decision by the Federal Appeals Court in Chicago of Jury-tampering, 
which
favored some of the S  L defendants in the criminal case, Susan Bogart left federal
employment.

"To arrange the take-over of the S  L, the HOME LOAN BANK parked $58.4
MILLION with HOUSEHOLD to make good the pending claims of Chicago-area caulking
contractor, Joseph Andreuccetti, who contends the S  L helped swindle him of sums
close to that amount. In 1988, $50 MILLION of those parked funds were secretly 
transferred
from HOUSEHOLD to LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS, in an attempt to cover up the
embezzlement there of $47 MILLION from MADISON GUARANTY SAVINGS  LOAN, for
which BILL AND HILLARY CLINTON are subject to being prosecuted and sent to federal
prison. [This is what the WHITEWATER scandal was REALLY about!] (The $3 MILLION
difference was used by RAHM EMANUEL to start Clinton's first campaign for President.)
When a senior investigator of the S  L bail-out agency, RESOLUTION TRUST
CORPORATION, Jon Parnell Walker, discovered the details, he demanded a full inquiry by
his federal agency. His insistance was cut short when HE WAS MYSTERIOUSLY THROWN
TO HIS DEATH from a building in Arlington, Virginia.

"The secret transfer of the $50 MILLION was arranged by HYDE with the aid of 
John
E. Gierum, a lawyer in the same suburb of Chicago, PARK RIDGE, that HILLARY RODHAM
CLINTON's family is from. A close crony of the RODHAMS, Gierum grew up with that family
and went to law school with one of HILLARY's brothers. In January, 1994, Gierum
confessed...in the presence of Joseph Andreuccetti (who was once Gierum's law client),
that the CLINTON WHITE HOUSE is attempting to send Gierum to prison on a frame-
up...Later, when confronted in Court...with his confession, Gierum DID NOT DISPUTE the
same. [1]

"Chicago US District Judge George M. Marovich put the case out of Court 
claiming
he could not hear it because IT HAD TOO MANY DETAILS [!]...A simple explanation of why
HYDE arranged the $50 MILLION transfer is that HYDE is protecting two CIA OPERATIVES
with the agency since an early age,
