The Covert War Against Rock  Alex Constantine

200 pages - $14.95

Loaded in the CD player as I write this is the Okeh Rhythm  Blues Story Box
Set. The music on this set spans the years from 1949-1957. It can be safely
assumed that the musicians that played on these records had problems,
however the situations they faced most likely pale in comparison to the
predicaments that the subjects of Constantines book faced. While lost love,
back stabbers and having your money "managed" by crooked labels, agents and
other handlers was the rule back in the 40s and 50s, these folks didnt have
to (for the most part) worry about being killed for their views. I am sure
they were being watched by the powers that be, but as long as it remained
out of the white bread mainstream, everything was fine. The problems started
when some folks opened their mouths a little too far and spoke up a little
too loud and the message made the top 10.

Its hard to put a finger on when it all went astray and became evident that
something very wrong was going on. Maybe it was the plane crash that claimed
the lives of the Big Bopper, Buddy Holly and Richie Valens. Maybe it was the
1966 death of Bobby Fuller, apparently from ingesting gasoline. Its hard to
say if these deaths were the beginning of something very evil or just
accidents or suicide. And while Constantine does not investigate the distant
past, he does show that this phenomenon of suspicious death in the music
industry has not stopped or slowed since the 1960s; in fact it has
increased.

Rock musicians are famous for singing about the type of things that make the
powers that be nervous. From the blatant lyrics about sex of the 40s and 50s
R  B bands to Elvis gyrating hips, to the Stones drug use (and abuse) in
the 60s. The 70s gave us the Doors, more Stones, and John Lennon before punk
took it over the top. The 80s saw the birth of gangsta rap and grunge and
the movements continue to this day. And while some may say that all the
lyrics, political statements and political movements are all about image and
posturing, someone obviously thinks otherwise.

This book takes a look at the someone else involved in the deaths of many of
yesterdays and todays musicians. Instead of just jumping in with conspiracy
theory, Constantine gives a good amount of well-footnoted background
information and history before the death toll begins to mount. History is
given on the Mafia and government involvement in the music industry. The
author then takes great pains to show how the government was involved in the
supply and use of LSD as a mind weakening and personality molding drug and
not the alleged mind expander it was being hyped as. Constantine also points
out how many of the underground heroes and their cronies had government
ties.

And then the killings start and the truth gets stretched in the mainstream
press. Mama Cass chokes on a ham sandwich. Brian Jones drowns in his pool.
Hendrix chokes on his vomit. Jim Morrison remains alive. An obsessed fan
killed John Lennon. Bob Marley dies of cancer. Peter Tosh dies by gunshot.
Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls were gang hits and most recently Michael
Hutchence was a victim of autoerotic hanging. That is what "they" want you
to believe, but Constantine has made it his job to show you the places where
these stories and reality dont agree. Constantine writes of the nervousness
inspired by Cass political aspirations. How the murderer of Brian Jones
confessed on his deathbed. How the development of the Jim Morrison lives
theory was put into place to throw people of the scent of a possible murder.
How Bob Marley suspiciously developed cancer and his more suspicious
"treatment. Why Peter Toshs killers went uninvestigated. He points out the
incongruities in the Tupac and Biggie murder investigations. And wonders how
a severely beaten Michael Hutchence could hang himself with a broken hand?
The clear message being that when you open your mouth too far, someone with
the power and influence may be right around the corner to shut it for you,
in fact you may even know and trust that person.

In the end does Constantine realize his goal of showing that "the Agency and
Organized Crime have, for over thirty

 Most of the criminal cases where the FBI used Carnivore in the past
 18 months focused on what the bureau calls "infrastructure
 protection," or the hunt for hackers, though it also was used in
 counterterrorism and some drug-trafficking cases.

One would presume any 'hacker' worth tapping would be savvy enough to
use the most rigorous encryption of their email

It's that catch-all 'counterterrorism' that is frightening...it's an
extremely broad term, which can be applied to anything from foreign
agents planning to bomb a building to citizens discussing peaceful
civil disobedience...and by extension, to ANY person or group which
represents something antithetical to the status quo, because the spooks
presume that at some time these people or groups just MAY discuss
something which can fall under the broad, catch-all description of
'terrorism'...

And as far as their watch on 'drug-trafficking', well as some us found
out years ago on AOHell, when it was announced that AOHell had
developed a cozy relationship with the spook agencies and had opened
their doors -- and computers -- to the spooks to watch every single bit
of email and live chat that went on in that system...apparently the
spooks consider any discussion of alternative health methods,
specifically the discussion of herbs and vitamins, as falling under the
umbrella 'drug' term

"...Every American citizen is better off because
we have a loyal and committed friend in the Middle
East that votes with us in the United Nations more
often than any other country on the face of this earth."

"Our admiration for Israel has never been greater;
our commitment to Israel has never been stronger;
our friendship with Israel has never been deeper;
America stands by Israel now and forever."

MID-EAST REALITIES - www.MiddleEast.Org - Washington - 7/12/00:

It's Camp David II, the latest in a long line of conferences going back throughout
the century to "resolve" the Arab-Israeli conflict.

But the year 2000 is somewhat different.  Israel's power has never been stronger.
 The Arabs have never been more divided.  The Palestinians have never been more
co-opted.

And there is one other very major difference as well in Washington these days which
in fact explains why Camp David II is taking place as it is and why in fact Bill
Clinton is there to host it on behalf of the Israelis.

There is no "Arab lobby" in Washington.  There is just a bunch of client personalities
who control weak and impotent client organizations that are used by the client Arab
regimes for their own purposes.

There is however a very confident "Israeli/Jewish lobby" with immense political
power and a large assortment of powerful and well-placed personalities.

Both of the major political parties in the U.S. are not only ever-conscious of this
major force in American politics but always careful to court it carefully.  True,
"the lobby" has a hold on the Democratic Party and Bill Clinton as no other.  But
the Republican Party as well, and indeed most of the media in the U.S., are very
well aware that there is big trouble if they come up against the Israeli/Jewish
lobby;
and little to worry about from the bumbling and stumbling Arabs.

As Camp David II proceeds, it's instructive indeed to see just how far the pandering
to "the lobby" has gone.

Recently on the 18th of May Vice President Al Gore delivered a speech at the 39th
Annual Policy Conference of the most important of the organizations that make up
the Israeli/Jewish lobby, AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
In a break with usual procedures, Gore's office refused to make copies of his speech
easily available.  However, a audio copy of that speech has been obtained from which
the following transcript has been prepared (in some cases the spellings are phonetic
and may not be fully accurage).

Note:  Be prepared.  This speech by Al Gore is pandering and fund-raising at it's
most crass as well as sophisticated level.  But even so, this is the reality of
Middle East affairs in the American capital at a time when the Israeli/Jewish lobby
is all powerful and the Arab lobby, contrary to how it attempts to portray itself,
is
practically non-existent (with what little there is carefully controlled by the
client Arab regimes with close under-the-table coordination with the Israeli/Jewish
lobby itself).

2000-07-12 Thread Aleisha Saba

So the subject is devils:   Now when you read this item, the FBI, BATF
all look great - they caught a devil worshiper, not an arsonist nor do
they report this man, this Devil, was so badly burned by setting a fire,
that he was psychotic, that he had kids enter into pacts with him
alleged to be drawn in blood - anyway, this one story noted this:

Church fires got so bad, mostly white churches, but when black churches
started to burn - oh boy Clinton off his canHells Fire, let the
rurual churches go up in  holy smoke.

Now this Ballengr's attorney wondered how his client could admit to so
many as 50 fires, for the state he was in - third degree burns, he still
has skin grafts to do, under medication, and again, this man was a
sicko.   Local police in Indiana knew of his past alliance with
Satan

Makes nice headlines; praise Janet Reno, and the local police were
tossed a bone.

So am forwarding three items, which are interesting, but show how this
guy got caught - for FBI had nothing to do with it.

And, did this guy do all this; was he a paid arsonist; organized crime
operates this way.
How many churches and OTHER businesses did he actually burn, for this
guy according to his contracts was going big time?   And living with a
dancer - probably a go go girl but how strange such a creep would end up
in the
show business rackets - so who led this psychotic down his own personal
road to Hells Fire.

Note:  Most of this guy's targets had white congregations.

    Devil Worshipper Admits 26 Church Fires
UPI

Wednesday, July 12, 2000

WASHINGTON – A Yorktown, Ind., man who considered himself a missionary
of Lucifer pleaded guilty Tuesday to setting 26 churches on fire in
eight states between 1994 and 1999, the Justice Department announced.

A department spokesman said most of his targets had white congregations.

Jay Scott Ballinger, 38, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in
Indianapolis to 29 criminal counts in 10 separate indictments and
complaints unsealed Tuesday.

The plea followed a nationwide investigation by the FBI, the Treasury
Department's Bureau of

***
Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the Indiana State Fire Marshals Office,
many other state and local investigators and the National Church Arson
Task Force,

 set up by President Clinton in 1996 after numerous reports of arson at
black churches.
***
According to a plea agreement unsealed Tuesday, the Justice Department
will recommend that Ballinger be sentenced to more than 42 years in
prison.

He still faces additional charges in Georgia for allegedly setting five
church fires from December 1998 to January 1999, including one blaze in
which a firefighter died.

A Justice Department statement said Ballinger grew up in the Yorktown
area but traveled the country extensively during his adult life,
"studying and practicing his beliefs as a Luciferian. He frequently
expressed his hostility toward organized Christianity, signed
individuals he met to contracts with the devil and termed himself a
missionary of Lucifer."

Ballinger began traveling with an 18-year-old woman named Angela Wood in
late 1993, the department said. While living in motels with Ballinger,
Wood worked short term as a nightclub dancer at a number of locations to
pay their living expenses. The department said Wood often acted as
Ballinger's lookout as he set the fires.

The pair worked late at night or early in the morning, the government
said, usually targeting isolated rural churches.

Wood pleaded guilty in November 1999 to several counts and has been
cooperating with the government investigation. She will be sentenced
when the case against Ballinger is completed.

A federal judge set a sentencing date for Ballinger in 70 days.
The National Church Arson Task Force, headed by the Justice Department,
has investigated 900 fires since 1996. Its 35.6 percent arrest rate is
more than double that of arson investigations nationwide.

So this devil was in Georgia toonow this is how this "devil
worshiper" who can only be charged with arson, got caught.

A young policemen heard an emergency callhad an idea and followed it
through.   Now all these other agences outside the local jurisdictions,
accomplished nothing but maybe during interrogation of this man put a
lot more on him than he had coming.

That old  express "thrown the book", and then "the book is closed" on
that one.

So what was the intent of thisi man?   There was a movie I believe he
watched called Needful Things - where the Devil comes to this small town
and creates havoc - kills animals through other people, and gets a
Priest and a Protestant Minister in a blood bath fight..the whole
town nearly goes up in flames.

Not that this guy was warped by one movie, but this is how to start a
Civil War.

Black Churches, White Churchs wonder he did not leave swatstikas all
over the place as wellwhat about George?   Do you think Eric Rudolph
tried to blow up tall Tower at Olympics?   Look how Jewell was blamed.

So anyway - this is how the Devil Cultist - talk about hate literature,
the guy was an ARSONISTeenie, mene, we you can find the
handwriting on the wall contains maybe a cipher?  Lots of clues in
bible, for we are dealing with a Devil Worshiper, a Satanist with long
horns and a tail, and pitchfork.

Police: Arson suspect recruited teens to devil
By T.J. WILHAM
The Star Press
MUNCIE -- For more than 5 years, police say, Jay Scott Ballinger
worshiped Satan, burned churches and persuaded teenagers to sign blood
contracts with the devil.
He recruited more than 40 teenagers from the Yorktown and Daleville
areas to sign written contracts with their own blood that gave their
"body and soul to Lucifer for eternity," according to Daleville police,
who released one of the contracts Wednesday.
Ballinger, 36, of rural Yorktown, is in federal custody, recovering from
burns he said he received while inflicting his own hate on an Ohio
church, according to court documents. He has been charged with seven
church arsons, all in Indiana.
Ballinger's injuries led Ball State Police Sgt. Steve Hiatt, who
overheard ambulance radio traffic on a scanner, to check out Ballinger's
story of how he got burned and call federal authorities.

**
"I just got lucky," said Hiatt, who spent most of Wednesday giving
interviews to television, radio and newspaper reporters. "I am kind of
embarrassed and flattered. I really didn't do that much. I have spent
more time talking to you
guys than what I did Ballinger."

Federal authorities have said they didn't want to speculate as to the
reasons Ballinger might have set fire to many as 50 churches in 11
states. According to court documents, Ballinger and two alleged
accomplices performed devil worship rituals and painted satanic symbols
on several churches before setting them on fire.
According to Daleville police, Ballinger for several years recruited
teens to sign written contracts with the devil.

Joe Schmitt of Daleville remembers his encounters with Ballinger.
Several years ago, one of Schmitt's children came to him and told him
that Ballinger had tried to get the child to sign such a contract.

"My child didn't know him and didn't even want to talk to him," Schmitt
said. "I wasn't scared; I was just concerned for the other children he
had gone up to. I am kind of glad he got caught."

At the time, Schmitt called authorities and with Daleville police
officer Mark Brewer confronted Ballinger at his home on Delaware County
Road 300-S, asking him to leave all children in the area alone.

By then it was too late for some teenagers.

Ballinger gave Brewer as many as 40 contracts signed by teens in the
Yorktown-Daleville area.
Brewer said when his department first learned about Ballinger, it
invited experts on cults to speak to its officers and school
administrators.

Throughout the years, Brewer has been in contact with parents who came
to him concerned about their children.

Brewer has a copy of one of the contracts given to him by a parent. The
contract allegedly is covered with smeared blood and has Ballinger's
name at the bottom as the author.

*
According to the contract, members of the club had to "promise in blood
to do all types of service and evil to our lord until the end of time in
business, in church and in the community. In return for my soul I shall
receive wealth, power, success and sex for the rest of my natural born
life. . . . I will also recruit other men and woman in Lucifer's
kingdom for eternity receiving added powers for each person I bring into
the club. This contract I mediate over and all others I mediate over are
binding without any chance of true salvation."

[CTRL] Bennie Demps and his Death Warrant

2000-07-12 Thread Mr.Rodriguez

AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL: http://www.amnesty.org/

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  -  MAY 2000.

INNOCENT MAN IN RISK OF EXECUTION IN FLORIDA.



My name is Bennie E. Demps,

I am 49 deathrow prisoner and am currently under deathwatch at the
Florida
State Prison, having had my 4th death warrant signed by Governor Bush
on
Monday April 24, 2000. I was convicted and sentenced to death for the
1976 of
killing a fellow prisoner. Quite simply I am innocent of this crime and
have
spent the last 22 years accumulating the necessary evidence to prove,
that
various Department of Correction prison officials - in conjunction with
an
unscrupulous former Prosecutor named Thomas Elwell, did indeed
manufacture
this case. The reason being they perceived me as having "escaped" the
death
penalty when in June 1972 the US Supreme Court struck down the death
penalty
commuting my sentence to life. It is a fact, the Courts in denying my
appeals
in this case, have often point to as justification to execute me for
this
case. Blending the lines of a prior conviction to carry out what the
Court
stopped before. By basically saying to me that the State did not get a
chance
to execute me then, so it's 'okay' for them to do so now, regardless of
the
innocence factor. I would not have been sentenced to death without that
prior
conviction as you need only consider the disparity in sentencing
between
myself and my two co-defendants who both received life.

I use the word manufactured because I was not involved in this murder
but the
prison officials upon seeing an opportunity, manipulated and re-wrote
this
case to include me. They bought and paid for everything, concealed
exculpatory evidence, 'lost or misplaced' critical files, that had they
been
discovered by me at the time of trial, would have proven my innocence.
They
made and delivered promises and rewards to all who aided in this
conviction,
be they prisoners or a guard. The proof of such has come in the form of
many
prisoners coming forward, issuing affidavits admitting their part in
getting
that conviction. But because this evidence was discovered so many years
after
my trial the Courts have ruled consistently on one issue, the evidence
is
procedurally and time barred, claiming you are just to late to present
proof
of your innocence! We discovered reams of documents about the 'so
called star
inmate witness' Larry Hathaway that proves beyond all doubt that he was
then
and continues to be today crazy! This is not opinion - we have the DOC
medical records to prove it and how they knew he was on psycothropic
medication and they used him anyway, but withheld that fact from us. In
1998
while going through a Clemency investigation my attorney Bill Salmon
received
from the State 2000 - 3000 pages of documents and amongst them was a
single
page document that for the last 21 years had been concealed and
withheld from
any of my attorneys - from the time of trial throughout the 22 years of
this
case. It is an official Department of Corrections memo written by the
Chief
Prison Inspector Cecil L. Sewell to the then Secretary of the
Department of
Corrections Louie Wainwright, it was written Sept. 7, 1976 the day
after the
murder of this prisoner and it clearly states that the victim in his
dying
declaration named a single individual and someone other than Bennie
Demps!
The fact that this document was previously concealed and withheld from
us
during trial and throughout the appellate process and the fact that it
does
not name me as the killer, became the basis for my 4th motion for post
conviction relief filed in the Bradford County Circuit Court in July
1999. My
attorney then filed a Supplement to the motion highlighting three
affidavits
of the representing attorney's involved at trial affirming that they
had
never seen the document and all stated they repeatedly sought
exculpatory
evidence and were repeatedly told nothing existed. This fact is in the
trial
record. In October 1999 the Judge felt there was merit to my motion and
ordered the State to respond by January 15, 2000 and to explain why I
was not
entitled to the relief I am seeking. Their response was empty, they
provided
no explanation for anything, simply a rehash of old responses put forth
by
the State in past appeals. My attorney then filed on April 13, 2000 one
more
Supplement and with it his own affidavit of how and when he came by the
document. We were awaiting the Judge to rule and hopefully order an
evidentiary hearing so that the truth could finally be told. The
Governor of
the State of Florida, in spite of this pending appeal based on factual
innocence, in spite of his promises of Clemency being the catch net for
innocence" in spite of the fact that the former Governor Lawton Chiles
felt
the this case needed more investigation - simply rushed to judgment
prematurely signing my 4th death warrant while I still had an appeal
pending.
I have since learned that the Bradford County Circuit Court Judge found
merit

And the FBI and Reno, sure got into this act for maybe the set the
picture - look at Waco, and see why Clinton ignored burning of white
congregation churches.

Now here is a good movie coming up - Satan on Trial, only some smart
attorney will get into this and wonder as this attorney did, how could a
man in critical condition, and under medication and the pain must have
been horrendous...how could he admit to all this stuff.

If he was an arsonist - is there more to this.   File still sealed on
some of this stuff?

Well they give the Devil his dues.and as last chapter in
Ecclesiastics relates, for the writing of many books.

Point:   Satinist Burns Church, but then so did our BATF, FBI headed up
by their leader, along with Delta, and back then by Chief Satan,
Clinton.for after all they have signed a pact with this devil too
and in the end  he wants the credit and he must also take the blame for
making the lives of those little children at Waco, hell.   War is hell,
and Clinton obviousl has declared war against God, while nourishing
Satan.   Look at the kidsLittleton, who wanted to burn down and blow
up an entire block.  Look at those two kids faces - good looking, what
happened - who was their mentor and who was mentor of this Satanist?

Church-arson suspect undergoes surgery for severe burns
By T.J. WILHAM
The Star Press



INDIANAPOLIS -- The fate of arson suspect Jay Scott Ballinger might be
determined more by his injuries than a judge or jury.

Ballinger underwent "major" surgery Thursday to repair second- and
third-degree burns over his body, according to his attorney, Steve
Riggs.

Riggs, who was appointed by a federal court, said Ballinger underwent
skin grafts along with other procedures he would not specify.

Ballinger has been in an isolation ward at Wishard Hospital in
Indianapolis since he was arrested by federal authorities on seven
charges of church arson. Ballinger confessed to as many as 50 arsons in
11 states, according to court documents.

Police believe Ballinger, 36, of rural Daleville, was injured while
setting fire to an Ohio church on Feb. 6. But he did not seek medical
treatment until 3 days later, authorities said.

Riggs said the first day he met his client he was concerned about
Ballinger's injuries and how he would recover. On Thursday he told The
Star Press he fully expected his client to survive.

"I expect that if the surgery is successful that he will survive," Riggs
said. "I anticipate that after today he will be OK."

Riggs said he did not know Ballinger's condition after his operation.
Federal authorities have declined to release his condition since the
arrest.

Last week, Riggs wondered how his client could confess to the church
arsons while in such serious medical condition.

Riggs met with his client for 45 minutes Wednesday. The attorney would
not say where Ballinger was working at the time of his arrest, nor would
he discuss the whereabouts of his client's parents, who have not been
seen at the family's home in Salem Township since the arrest.


U.S. Attorney Judith Stewart declined to comment this week on
Ballinger's medical condition or the details of the confession.

[CTRL] Fwd: FC: ACLU letter opposing FBI Carnivore surveillance system

Subject: Carnivore Letter

Declan,

Below is the text of the letter that the ACLU sent today to the House
Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution regarding the FBI's aptly named
"CARNIVORE" system for intercepting email. This is the system that was the
subject of this morning's story in the Wall Street Journal.

Ranking Member
Constitution Subcommittee of theConstitution Subcommittee

House Judiciary Committee   House Judiciary Committee

Washington, D.C. 20515-6220 Washington, D.C.
20515-6220

Dear Representatives Canady and Watt:

We are writing to you about the new FBI email surveillance system aptly
named "Carnivore," which gives law enforcement extraordinary power to
intercept and analyze huge volumes of email. The Carnivore system gives law
enforcement email interception capabilities that were never contemplated
when Congress passed the Electronic Communications Privacy Act  (ECPA),
codified in relevant part at 18 U.S.C. 2510-22 and 18 USC 3121-27.
Carnivore raises new legal issues that cry out for Congressional attention
if we are to preserve Fourth Amendment rights in the digital age.

The existence of Carnivore first came to light in the April 6 testimony of
Attorney Robert Corn-Revere to the Constitution Subcommittee. Its operation
was further detailed in a report that appeared in today's Wall Street
Journal (copy attached).  According to these reports, the Carnivore system
-- essentially a computer running specialized software-- is attached
directly to an Internet Service Provider's (ISP) network. Carnivore is
attached either when law enforcement has a Title III order from a court
permitting it to intercept in real time the contents of the electronic
communications of a specific individual, or a trap and trace or pen
register order allowing to it obtain the "numbers" related to
communications from or to a specified target.

But unlike the operation of a traditional a pen register, trap and trace
device, or wiretap of a conventional phone line, Carnivore gives the FBI
access to all traffic over the ISP's network, not just the communications
to or from a particular target. Carnivore, which is capable of analyzing
millions of messages per second, purportedly retains only the messages of
the specified target, although this process takes place without scrutiny of
either the ISP or a court.

Carnivore permits access to the email of every customer of an ISP and the
email of every person who communicates with them. Carnivore is roughly
equivalent to a wiretap capable of accessing the contents of the
conversations of all of the phone company's customers, with the "assurance"
that the FBI will record only conversations of the specified target.  This
"trust us, we are the Government" approach is the antithesis of the
procedures required under our the wiretapping laws. They authorize limited
electronic surveillance of the communications of specified persons, usually
conducted by means of specified communications devices.  They place on the
provider of the communications medium the responsibility to separate the
communications of persons authorized to be intercepted from other
communications.

Currently, law enforcement is required to "minimize" its interception of
non-incriminating communications of a target of a wiretap order.  Carnivore
is not a minimization tool. Instead, Carnivore maximizes law enforcement
access to the communications of non-targets.

In his testimony to your subcommittee Mr. Corn-Revere described the
experience of his client, an ISP that was required to install Carnivore
when presented with a trap and trace order. He detailed his client's
concerns that a trap and trace order in the context of the Internet
revealed information that Congress did not contemplate when it authorized
their limited use. In the traditional telephone context, those orders
reveal nothing more than the numbers dialed to or from a single telephone
line. In the Internet context, these orders and certainly Carnivore, likely
involve ascertaining the suspect's e-mail address, as well as header
information that may provide information regarding the content of the
communication.

As we have stated previously, the ACLU does not believe that it is clear
that the Government can serve an order on an Internet service provider and
obtain the e-mail addresses of incoming and outgoing messages for a
particular subscriber.  Further, it is not clear whether law enforcement
agents use or should use authority under the pen register statute to access
a variety of data, including Internet Protocol addresses, dialup numbers
and e-mail logs.  We certainly do not

If it weren't for one thing, Gov. George W Bush would see a clear path before
him leading straight to the Whitehouse. He's so far ahead in the polls that
all other candidates look almost insignificant. The media are in love with
him, and the Republican Party has pinned all their hopes on this one man to
reunite their broken party. Just one problem: he's a former drug user. In a
country that locks people away for decades for simple possession, this is a
major liability for Bush. Especially since he's a "tough on crime" candidate
who insists that people should pay dearly for their mistakes-no matter what
age or what the circumstances.
While Bush has not fully admitted to drug use, he's sending very clear
signals in that direction. Even though he's lowered the age at which minors
can be tried as adults in Texas to 14, when asked about crimes in his own
youth he asks them to be forgotten and forgiven. This was G.W. in a New
Hampshire TV interview with WMUR when they asked about cocaine:
"I'm not going to talk about what I did as a child. What I am going to talk
about - and I am going to say this consistently - [is that] it is irrelevant
what I did 20 to 30 years ago. What's relevant is that I have learned from
any mistakes I made. I do not want to send signals to anybody that what Gov.
Bush did 30 years ago is cool to try."
And what's he talking about trying? Something he "did" as late as age 32 (20
years ago) that would not be cool for others to "try." What-sex? alcohol?
Well, actually, he offers confident denials of alcoholism and marital
infidelity. He was a heavy drinker for years, and admits that alcohol "got
the best of him", but he swore off booze on his 40th birthday, and says he
hasn't had a drink since, and says he was never an alcoholic.
His refusal to deny drugs in his past is even more interesting in light of
the fact that Al Gore, his only potential rival, admits to smoking a joint or
two while at Harvard (perhaps with his college roommate, actor Tommy Lee
Jones.) If Gore smoked pot, then what does Bush have to lose by admitting he
smoked a little as well?
This is the main issue I have been trying to publicize on my satirical Web
site,

For Your Internet Connection, Dial MI5


Supermarket records checked against tax returns.



by Simon Davies

THIS week, the House of Lords will vote on a Bill designed to create a regime
of surveillance for the entire internet. Fuelled by fears of rampant anarchy,
pornography and a digital black economy, the Government is pressing ahead
with measures of intrusion into cyberspace without parallel anywhere outside
Russia.

The legislation, known as the Regulation of Investigatory Powers (RIP) Bill,
authorises government agencies to snoop, often without warrant, on the e-mail
and internet activities of everyone with an internet connection. "Black
boxes" will connect internet service providers directly to the HQ of MI5.

The security services will be provided with new powers to use this machinery
to monitor British domestic internet activities. People are up in arms. True,
the internet can be a scary place - particularly for those who can't remember
when the telephone and the printing press induced similar anxieties. Some
people in government are also scared of the internet.

They believe criminality and tax evasion will flourish in cyberspace. Having
spent much of the past decade trying unsuccessfully to figure out ways of
controlling the medium, government has struck upon a novel idea: make sure
everyone using the internet knows they are being watched.
But although Britain already has the highest level of conventional mail and
phone interception, per capita, than anywhere in the Western world, at least
those intrusions are regarded as extraordinary. The real problem with the RIP
Bill is that it builds surveillance into the core of the internet, and thus
destabilises the very foundation of the medium.

An unprecedented alliance has formed an ad-hoc coalition of opposition to the
Bill. Yesterday, more than 50 organisations ranging from the Countryside
Alliance to Unison signed an open letter demanding the withdrawal of the
Bill. They warn that the measures are heavy-handed and ill-considered, and
will lead to loss of confidence in e-commerce, unacceptable costs to business
and to the British economy, confusion and uncertainty at numerous levels of
business activity, and an onerous imposition on the rights of individuals.

The Bill permits surveillance of the internet "for the purpose of assessing
or collecting any tax, duty, levy or other imposition, contribution or charge
payable to a government department". Would the authorities ever use these
powers? On the basis of the past record of the Inland Revenue, it is likely
that they will.

It was recently revealed that they have approached supermarkets to obtain
loyalty card files. They say the information is useful to determine whether a
person's spending pattern matches the way of life implied by his tax return.
Consider, also, the requirement in the Bill for computer users and companies
to hand over on demand their "decryption" keys to the Government.

It sounds mundane, but this simple requirement in the legislation is likely
to drive businesses off-shore. Encryption (the mathematics of scrambling data
so it is unintelligible to business rivals) sits at the heart of the
functioning of modern business, and it forms the core of the trust in the
e-commerce and banking industries.

Enter government, with its size 12 boots, demanding that businesses hand over
these priceless items. Bemused investors and venture capital leaders have
warned that the requirement compromises the core security of business. And
that means investment in new British projects in e-commerce will fall off
sharply.

Sensing a potential economic disaster, the British Chambers of Commerce
recently commissioned some academic colleagues and me to conduct an
assessment of the economic impact of the Bill. We concluded that it would
create an economic Chernobyl amounting to a cost to the British economy of
£46 billion over five years.

Instead of causing an uproar, business groups have been quiet, choosing to
pursue discreet meetings with ministers rather than dropping depth charges.
The reason, perhaps, can be traced to a civil servant from the DTI, Nigel
Hickson. In a scene worthy of Yes, Minister, the Government placed Hickson
"on loan" to the CBI, from where he started to co-ordinate the business
response to the Bill. Scary stuff.

In the face of increased opposition from non-business groups, Jack Straw
entered the fray. He talked up the potential for the Bill to tackle crime on
the internet, and launched a spirited attack on our economic report. Mr
Straw's intervention is significant. It indicates that the driving force
behind the Bill is substantial, and the air of desperation within sections of
government to get the legislation through has blinded the Home Office to
commercial and human rights sensitivities.

It is already clear that the

Daniel Sheehan lawyer and social activist who founded the Christic Institute
delivered an outstanding lecture last night at MUFON-LA and I would like to
comment on some astounding points he made.

First, let me give some background.

"Christic Institute is an interfaith center for law and national policy in
the public interest. We commit our resources to legal investigations
carefully selected for their potential to advance human rights, social
justice, and personal freedom--at home and abroad."

From the Introduction to his talk to the audience at

(QUOTE)

Daniel Sheehan

THE PROBABILITY OF A PUBLIC ENCOUNTER WITH

EXTRATERRESTRIALS IN THE 21st CENTURY  and the public policy implications of
such contact on American foreign policy, military policy and national
security.

DAN SHEEHAN is a social activist who has spent virtually his entire life
working on progressive social programs and initiatives. As the Legal Counsel
on such nationally-recognized investigative cases involving government
covert operations as The Karen Silkwood Case, The Iran/Contra Case, The
Pentagon Papers Case, The Watergate Burglary Case, and The American
Sanctuary Movement Case, Dan brings to the issue of Extraterrestrial
Intelligence and the UFO Phenomenon a unique background in investigating and
exposing the world of American governmental covert operations, "black
budget" operations, mind control programs, government disinformation
projects, covert warfare and clandestine operations. He established the
Christic
Institute in Washington, DC, which for nearly two decades was the country's
preeminent public-interest law firm.

In 1994 Dan defended Dr. John Mack before his inquisition by an
Investigatory panel of the Harvard Medical School after Dr. Mack's
courageous  publication of "Abduction: Human Encounters With Aliens.” This
was not his first, nor his last, encounter with the important issue of Alien
Intelligence and American Law. In 1977, while General Counsel to the United
States Jesuit Office of Social Ministry in Washington, DC., he served as a
Special Consultant to the United States Library of Congress Congressional
Research Office Project on Extraterrestrial
Intelligence ordered by President Jimmy Carter. In this capacity, Dan was
given access not only to the classified portions of the United States Air
Force's infamous “Project Blue Book” files but to the confidential report
prepared for the Science  Technology Committee of the United States
Congress by the Library of Congress Congressional Research Office pursuant
to this Presidential assignment.

Today, Dan is director of The Strategic Initiative To Identify The New
Paradigm which was one of the six Strategic Initiatives of the State of The
world Forum of President Gorbachev. In this organization, Dan shares the
responsibility for formulation of a new world view integrating into all of
the classical fields of human knowledge (Cosmology, Theology, Philosophy,
Physical Science, Psychology, Ethics, Ontology, Epistemology, Human
Teleology) the now virtually universally accepted FACT of the existence of
extraterrestrial Intelligence in our Universe and the growingly-accepted
fact that representatives of one or more of these extraterrestrial
civilizations are presently  visiting our planet and interacting with
members
of our species.

(END QUOTE)

NOTE:  The range of interests given above is reminiscent of those given by
Joe Firmage.

I want to make a statement about his very articulate presentation in two
parts.

1)  He told the story of how, during the Carter administration, in 1977
Carter requested UFO information from then-CIA Director George Bush and the
request was declined by Bush.  However, a confidential report was prepared
for Carter and Sheehan, through connections, and a woman named Marcia
(sorry, I did not write down the name, but intend to get more details on
this story) he was given access to old microfilm files in a new wing of the
National Archives which had armed guards stationed at the entrance.  There
he hand-cranked through the microfilm records.

He stated there were two primary reports, one on the UFO phenomena, and one
on extraterrestrial life.  He described how, rolling through the microfilm,
he encountered some clear photos showing a "flying saucer" embedded in snow
and surrounded by USAF personnel wearing parkas.  He could even see visible
name tags.  The clarity of these photos impressed him.  He could even make
out symbols on the hull of the craft.

2000-07-12 Thread Kris Millegan





Flight 800 Independent Researchers Organization (FIRO)
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Springfield, Massachusetts

7/17/00

Flight 800 Independent Researchers Organization (FIRO) is acknowledging the
4th anniversary of the crash of TWA Flight 800 by filing a FOIA suit in
Springfield, Mass, Federal Court. FIRO is seeking an injunction against the
FBI to release accident data still being withheld from researchers.
Incredibly, such data is also being withheld from other official parties to
the investigation. Remarkably, the FBI even refused to share such source
documents when requested at Congressional oversight hearings.

FIRO is specifically seeking the FBI's forensic analytical results, which
describe over 100 shrapnel-like objects, and which were never revealed to
any other parties to the official investigation. Similarly, radar data
seized by the FBI from the Sikorsky facility on Long Island have been
withheld for 4 years.

Last August, FIRO attracted national TV coverage (C-Span) to their press
conference revealing previously unreleased radar data showing many
unexplained vessels in the vicinity of the crash. One fast, high
performance aircraft was tracked maneuvering in and out of a nearby
military warning zone before, during, and after the crash. There has still
been no official response or explanation as to what these 30+ mystery
vessels were, and why, despite their proximity, they did not contribute any
of the 755 witness reports.

It is FIRO's contention that by continuing to keep such data secret and
isolated from the official record, that the FBI and the NTSB are themselves
undermining the credibility of their conclusions and of the overall
official inquiry process. Such unnecessary secrecy creates skepticism and
perpetuates allegations of a cover-up.

The NTSB will formally release their report on the accident in August with
a conclusion based upon a hypothetical and spontaneous spark in the center
fuel tank. To date, no physical evidence has been found to support
the "spark" theory.

After years of delay the NTSB has finally released the FBI's redacted
eyewitness reports. These revealed that there were actually 755 witness
reports despite FBI Asnt Director James Kallstrom's sworn testimony to a
Congressional Hearing in 1997 that misrepresented the total number as "over
200 witnesses".

The Witness data and a summary can finally be viewed at:

www.twa800.com

The recent official TWA report to be included in the final NTSB report
notes wryly that "These observations did not comport with the (upward)
trajectory … as depicted in the CIA videotape". Unfortunately the whole
direction of the NTSB's investigation and conclusions are totally
compromised by this perception: that the CIA's and the FBI's analyses lack
credibility even among official parties to the investigation. FIRO has
studied the CIA animation and related NTSB simulations in detail. All are
in significant conflict with FAA radar that tracked the true path of Flight
800. See: http://flight800.org/radar6.htm

The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAMAW)
final report to the NTSB also evidences serious flaws in the NTSB's process
and conclusions. The IAMAW report even concluded that the physical evidence
establishes that the CWT exploded as a result of the breakup of the a/c and
not as a primary cause. They also draw attention to previously unreported
16 penetrations of the aircraft that go from out to in - an external event
and possible initiating event!

FIRO further contends that the NTSB cannot reasonably conclude the official
inquiry without seriously acknowledging and addressing all these many
conflicts, anomalies and unexamined details. See also FIRO's testimony
submitted to the House Aviation Subcommittee Hearing in 1998 included on
FIRO website at:

http://flight800.org

It is now time for the media to start asking the FBI and the NTSB to show
the factual basis and source materials their theories and conclusions are
based upon. Blustering assertions of scrupulous diligence from high
government officials should no longer be uncritically accepted. Aviation
safety depends on the official inquiry process being done well and being
done credibly. On close examination, this investigation itself looks like
an aviation disaster.

  "Theo" comes from the Greek word "theos", i.e., "god".  The "dore" part
is from "doron", i.e., "gift".

  The names "Theodore" and "Theodora" mean "a gift from God".

  The names "Dorotheos", "Dorothea", and "Dorothy" mean "a gift (from the

This page is black in protest of the CDA. If you do not know what that
is  click here.

This is the unedited version of my interview with former CIA agent Phil
Agee.  click here  to go back to the Daily Beacon Page. If you want to
get in touch with me via e-mail  click here.

SR:  The first question that I have is that people have the impression
that the CIA is a Big Omnipresent Government Agency with its hand in
everything. How true is this belief?

PA:  I think that's relatively untrue and it depends what period of
history you are talking about. During the 1960's President Johnson was
obsessed with the idea that there was a foreign hand behind the anti-war
movement and he told the FBI to find that hand. The FBI did the
investigation and they couldn't find it and they told Johnson that and
he hit the roof, he said there is a foreign hand in there. So he told
the CIA in 1967 "I want you to find the foreign hand."

And, so the CIA begin a whole series of illegal operations inside the
United States because they are, by law, barred from an internal security
function. But they searched high and low abroad and in the United States
and they went back to Johnson and told him "No, we can't find the
foreign hand; and there is no foreign hand as far as we're concerned of
any significance."

By that time Johnson's presidency was destroyed by the Vietnam War and
in came Richard Nixon in 1969. Nixon too was obsessed with finding the
foreign hand behind the anti-war movement. He had the CIA continue these
illegal operations that they were doing and had the FBI also continue a
whole series of operations that were illegal against the anti-war
movement and against various groups particularly the Black Panthers.

 The FBI continued to tell Nixon that there was no foreign hand the CIA
did the same. So Nixon came up with what was known as the Houston Plan,
after Tom Houston who was an assistant council to the President, and
this was a whole series of illegal operations to intensify this search
for the foreign hand and at the same time to neutralize the opposition
to Nixon's policies in Vietnam.

He was paranoid, as everyone knows, he was so paranoid that he even
bugged himself. But, it never turned up, the foreign hand, because there
was no foreign hand to turn up. The CIA was collecting files on
thousands of people at that time inside this country. But that was an
unusual period, even though they had been reviewing mail, going out to
the Soviet Union and other communist countries and other places for some
20 years from 1952 to 1972, I don't think that you can say that the CIA
hand is everywhere.

Or ever was everywhere in the United States. It has a definite role and
it carries out this role mainly, almost exclusively, abroad. Whereas the
FBI is the Agency charged with internal security, and wherever a group
arose, and whenever a group arose that the FBI considered to be a threat
to the stability, a potential threat to the stability, of the United
States, and this goes on into the 1930's; they would initiate what they
call counterintelligence programs or COINTELLPROS for short.

 These operations went on into the 1970's and they only became known
after unknown persons stole several thousand pages from the FBI offices
in Pennsylvania and this eventually came out in the press. And then the
whole COINTELPRO program became known and Hoover stopped it as such.
But, there can be know doubt that this continued on into the 1980's in
the operations against the solidarity movement with El Salvador and
Nicaragua because there have been exposes on those operations.

So, the way to look at this is that the FBI and the CIA are organized to
sustain and promote stability. The CIA outside the United States the FBI
inside the United States. And this means secret operations against all
those groups that are potentially destabalizing factors. And so its a
matter of looking at the groups that exist and assuming that they are
going to be targets and that there is where the attention will fall. But
not over the general population as such.

SR:  How much of what the American public hears through the mass media
about foreign relations is true? Do we practice what we preach?

PA:  We certainly don't practice what we preach. That is we don't
practice what we preach within the United States and much less abroad in
my long experience in this area. But, the media can be very deceptive.
The problem is not that so many lies are printed, there are plenty of
those though, but the worst part of it is the censorship, the self
censorship, that

An Unfree Press: The Jeff Jacoby Affair
If anyone ever doubted the totalitarian mentality that lurks right below the 
surface of every liberal brain, the outrageous firing of Jeff Jacoby 
should put those doubts to rest. The excuse given for the firing of Jacoby is 
laughable. (Of course the Globe lefties didn't have the spine to do even this 
honestly, covering it up as a suspension without pay for four 
months). The reckless cruelty towards Jacoby, a talented young man who has no 
blemish on his career is inexcusable. It is self-evident that no one but a 
conservative would have been treated this way.
Jeff Jacoby was the only conservative columnist on the staff of The Globe. 
But that is one more conservative than, say, the leftists at the Los Angeles 
Times or National Public Radio can live with. Now The Globe joins them as a 
party paper without dissent. Token conservatives do pepper the pages of other 
major dailies like The New York Times and The Washington Post. But 
pepper is the word. Their main courses are dished up daily by 
legions of left-wing chefs.
Readers curious about the commissar-like mentality of the liberal media 
community could do worse than read Harry Stein's new book How I Accidentally 
Joined the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy and Found Inner Peace. Stein was a 
columnist for several of the liberal magazines (so-called) that shape our 
national tastes. Having fathered a child, Stein decided to take a look at the 
child-care issue about the time Dan Quayle was being pilloried for 
suggesting that two parents might help a youngster to get a good start in life. 
Without thinking too hard about the implications of what he was doing  
indeed without realizing that there were any  Stein wrote a piece that 
raised some mild questions about whether institutional childcare was all that it 
was cracked up to be. The next thing he knew, an old friend was accosting him at 
a dinner party with Since when did you become a fascist? Bang, 
buddy, you're dead.
It is appropriate that Jeff Jacoby should be made an unperson by his leftwing 
bosses at The Globe over a column written as a tribute to the Americans who 
wrote the Constitution and paid a dear personal price for their gift to the rest 
of us of a nation conceived in liberty. Jeff Jacoby has now paid a price too. 
And for the same reason.

[CTRL] Refugees in America/Israel (and presumably also Britain)

2000-07-12 Thread J Taylor

At 05:18 PM 7/10/00 -0700, Robert wrote:

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Clinton has authorized legal entry into the
United States for 80,000 refugees in fiscal 2001, including some from
the former Yugoslavia and Soviet Union.

Most Russian "refugees" are Jews.  Unlike the other INS categories, there
is no numerical cap for refugees, and they are immediately eligible for
extra benefits.

In a September 1997 column, syndicated columnist Charles Reese wrote:  "The
U.S. refugee program has become a racket.  The Refugee Act of 1980 needs to
be repealed, especially the 1989 Lautenberg Amendment."  That amendment,
named after its chief sponsor, Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ), was introduced
with the intention of helping Soviet Jews.  All they needed to prove was
that they were Jewish and had, at some time or other, lived in the
now-defunct USSR.  That was accepted as prima facie evidence that they were
the victims of specific discrimination and therefore eligible for refugee
status--and all the goodies that go with it.  Reese wrote, "Ordinary
immigrants must work or live off the largesse of their sponsors; refugees
qualify for a ton of public benefits the day they set foot on U.S. soil."

Russian Jews were also being looked out for under cover of the so-called
Freedom from Religious Persecution Act in 1997.  In an article entitled
"Persecution Complex," in the 11/10 National Review, Don Barnett wrote:

"The stated goal of the Freedom from Religious Persecution Act, sponsored
by Rep. Frank Wolf (RVA) and Sen. Arlen Specter (RPA), is to help eradicate
religious persecution around the world--a laudable goal, but one the bill
is unlikely to achieve.  It imposes economic sanctions on persecuting
countries, but, except for the specific case of Sudan, those sanctions are
weak, and can be waived at any time by the President.  Meanwhile, the bill
contains refugee and asylum provisions that could have a significant
effect--not toward the bill's stated purpose of mitigating religious
persecution, but rather in terms of leading to substantial increases in the
numbers immigrating to the United States as refugees and asylum-seekers."

According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (F.A.I.R.),
U.S. Immigration laws allow 50,000 Soviet Jews (1/3 of all refugees) to
come to the United States each year; this came about as a result of the
1989 Lautenberg Amendment to The Refugee Act of 1980.   Efforts to raise
refugee admissions by as much as 40 per cent in 1998 had the backing of
Sen. Spencer Abraham (R,MI), chairman of the Senate Immigration
Subcommittee.

The American Immigration Control Foundation (AICF) commissioned a study by
Don Barnett, and one of its conclusions was that "According to the FBI,
about half of the 4,000 'Russian' mobsters operating in the United States
arrived as refugees under the Lautenberg Amendment."  The article states
further, "it should be noted that U.S. officials call refugees from Russia
and from the ex-USSR 'Russian'.  Most aren't."

The Christian Science Monitor (10/8) reported that Israel, which has been
inundated with expatriates from the Former Soviet Union (FSU), has also
discovered that the refugee population is generously seeded with
well-connected mobsters.  As a result, "Russian expatriates are using
Israel as a base for international money laundering and trying to
infiltrate or influence Israeli economic, political, and security
establishments."

One of the most notorious gangsters to seek refuge in Israel is Grigori
Loutchansky, the KGB-trained Latvian who heads Nordex, the Vienna-based KGB
front that specializes in arms and drug smuggling, as well as money
laundering. Wanted by nearly every national law enforcement and
intelligence agency in the Western world, Loutchansky was able to finagle a
facetoface meeting with Bill Clinton, after which Mr. Clinton commissioned
the gangster as an intermediary in nuclear diplomacy with Ukraine. This
happened at a time when Loutchansky's firm was implicated in a scheme to
smuggle nuclear materials to North Korea.

Loutchansky went on the lam in 1995, and failing to find any other country
that would take him, he claimed a "RIGHT OF RETURN" to Israel based on his
Jewish ancestry. The new book One Point Safe, by Andrew and Leslie
Cockburn, reports that "the Israeli police duly noted how skies over the
eastern Mediterranean darkened with charter jets in February 1995, carrying
such leading lights of the Moscow underworld as Iosif Kobzon (described by
the CIA as the "Tsar and kingpin" of the Russian Mafia) as they flew in for
Loutchansky's lavish fiftieth birthday celebrations in the resort town of
Eilat."

According to the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, by the end of
the 1998 election cycle, New Jersey senator Frank Lautenberg had accepted a
career total of $419,806 from the pro-Israel PACs.

Russian mob makes S. Florida a base
Task force, FBI fight uphill battle
By Juan O. Tamayo, Herald Staff Writer

When Russian nightclub owner Oleg Kirillov decided to fly to Miami last
December and spend his New Year's vacation in the sun and surf, the FBI got
ready to celebrate, too.

Pegged as the head of a powerful Russian crime gang, the 31yearold Kirillov
was arrested by FBI agents soon after he arrived and was charged with
conspiracy to export cocaine from Miami to Moscow.   Yet the bust got
little publicity, perhaps because Kirillov was only one of scores of
Russian mobsters who visit South Florida, perhaps because his is only one
of the dozen or so Russian gangs known to operate here.

With little fanfare, Russianspeaking mobsters regarded as the most
sophisticated criminals ever to hit America have turned South Florida into
one of their main U.S. bases, behind only New York and maybe San Francisco.
They are holding internal summits and meeting with Italian Mafia and
Colombian drug cartel leaders, buying luxury condos and running scams,
according to a dozen FBI, DEA and local officials and private
moneylaundering experts interviewed by The Herald.

``What elevates Miami to the top of Russian organized crime in the U.S. is
the access to banks in the Caribbean and drugs in Latin America,'' said
Hardrick Crawford Jr., head of the FBI's organized crime branch in Miami.

Some clear evidence of the Russian mob's presence here:

+  Sergei Aksyonov, reputed head of Russia's secondlargest and most violent
gang  ``No. 2 with a bullet,'' one FBI official joked  recently bought
several luxury condos on north Collins Avenue through two relatives.
+  Anzor Kikalischvili, a Russian businessman denied a U.S. entry visa last
year for alleged ties to crime gangs, bragged in a 1996 FBI wiretap that he
had 600 employees in Miami alone.
+  Four of Russia's highestranking mobsters met in Miami in 1993 to decide
how their gangs would split up the governmentowned hotels and factories
that were privatized that year, law enforcement officers who watched them
say.  "There are definitely a lot of major league players here ... who want
that Miami Vice lifestyle," said Bob Levinson, who retired recently as the
FBI's top expert in Miami on Russian mobsters.

Bosses and underlings

Law enforcement agents in Miami say they have grown used to seeing lots of
young Russian men in luxury beach hotels, a few of them apparently bosses
who bring bodyguards and even satellite phones.  But most appear to be foot
soldiers, athletic young men who sport the homemade tattoos that denote
prison experience and the track suits that are the virtual uniforms of
lowlevel Russian hoodlums.  ``They are on allexpensespaid vacation, perhaps
rewards for a whacking [killing] well done,'' said Kenneth Rijock, a
Miamibased law enforcement consultant on financial crimes.

The Russians' arrival in South Florida has clearly worried law enforcement
agencies.  The FBI's Miami office created a 13person ``RussiaEurasia''
squad last July after a threatassessment study put Russian organized crime
in fourth place  behind Colombians, La Cosa Nostra and ``other Caribbeans''
and ahead of the Sicilian mob.  The FBI has Russia squads in only five
other U.S. cities.

Task forces watches mob

That squad is in addition to Odessa, a joint task force of Miamiarea U.S.
and local law enforcement agencies, financed with federal funds, that began
monitoring the Russian mob in South Florida around 1993.  Odessa has scored
some victories, most notably last year's arrest of Ludwig Fainberg,
Ukrainianborn owner of the Porky's strip club in Hialeah, and 20 others on
drug, weapons, counterfeit money, prostitution and stolen liquor charges.

But both the FBI and Odessa face an uphill battle against  mobsters who are
extremely clannish, have rogue KGB veterans advising them on security
precautions, and speak a relatively uncommon language.   None of the new
FBI squad's 13 members speak Russian. And the lack of major indictments
since the Fainberg case  which generated about 15,000 taperecorded
conversations  indicates the depth of the difficulties.

Russian mobsters  some law enforcement officers jokingly call them
Redfellas  come to South Florida for the same reasons as other retirees,
other tourists and other criminals.   ``Miami's climate is perfect for guys
who have spent a long  time in Siberian prisons,'' said Lee Lamothe,
publisher of a Torontobased newsletter on financial and organized crime.

Wasn't this O'Hair or whatever, did she not disappear and later they
fund her body for it was alleged she was murdered?

The astronauts read from the bible from the moon - a Gideon Bible - take
Christmas away from the kids?

Now tell me this - if you do that, and we no longer celebrate birth of
Christ or this pagan Christmas to some - boy oh boy cui bono and who
will NOT profit.

The Three Wisemen in the bible came bearing Giftsdo not see any
Arabs getting rich on Christmas - but Christians have been buying at
Jewish stores for many years - the big department stores...Lazaras even
opened on Saturdays and closed on Sundays to accommodate the people.

Maybe some people will not like this, for Christmas has many meanings to
different people.

A Christmas tree is a Christmas tree - but to Christians alone it has
deep religious meaning.

They better watch out with this stuff.for in the end, who will lose
the big bucks?

See, everything is timed to go off again like the 60 period  - and this
evil element pushes for race war and civil war as they did in the 60
period, even unto Atheist O'Hair

Target of Nationalism.restore lost boundaries (to biblical days
presumably) and restore secular education - even Jomo Kenyatta with his
Masonic Temple in Kenya got into this act playing Moses, but boy he did
not want to get knocked off, like King who too played role timed to a -
face it Timed to the Communist Time Table keyed to bible...and all is
ready again for the next push.

Castro was there in 60 period.Kennedy murdered and our government is
now in bed with his killerssame secret society, different names.

So you see any difference between fascism and nationalism and communism
-   all birds of feathers, and they have come home to roost once more
and have control of our White House after shooting JFK,RFK, Wallace,
Reagan -

So you should have my masonic bible dated in 1963pages all out of

care to enlighten us as to what is really going on?

Are Masons really as loyal as George Washington maintainedbut then
there are Masons all over world, come in many different colors, even

FREEDOM ALLIANCE
 For Immediate Release

 International UN Conference Proposes Global Taxes
Freedom Alliance Opposes UN Taxes; Continues to Monitor Delegates
in Geneva at "World Conference for Social Development"
Geneva, Switzerland --- "Just as we suspected, the United Nations is
planning a system of global taxation - the burden for which will
fall largely on Americans - in order to pay for Kofi Annan's Global New
Deal," today said Thomas Jacobson, senior policy analyst for Freedom
Alliance, who is in Geneva this week to monitor the conference. "The
issue of a United Nations tax system is given such high priority that the
issue was discussed on the first day of the Geneva 2000 World Conference
for Social Development," Jacobson continued. Freedom Alliance opposes the
imposition of the Tobin Tax (a tax on international currency transactions
named after 1981 Nobel Prize winning economist James Tobin) and
any other kind of global taxes, especially those that would impact
American citizens.

 Jacobson continued, "The United Nations has no legitimate
authority to tax anyone, directly or indirectly, so they are endeavoring
to do so through the back door by seeking the cooperation of the United
States and other national governments to collect the taxes. Yet those who know
America's history know that we became a free, independent and prosperous

nation, in part, because our forefathers declared: 'No taxation without
representation.' That truth is still worth fighting for-not just for
Americans, but for any people who value freedom more than government
social benefits that bind them to political leaders and governments."

 The UN Non-Governmental Liaison Service convened the
meetingon global taxes which was dubbed, "Financing Social
Development: Progressive Taxation and Globalization." All who
spoke expressed support for the Tobin Tax or currency exchange
taxes. The speakers included Robin Round of the Halifax Initiative,
which was primarily responsible for getting the Canadian
Parliament to pass a resolution last year supporting the Tobin Tax;
Julian Disney of the International Council on Social Welfare (ICSW),
who wants to see international corporations taxed on 1% of their
assets; Bart Bode of Cooperation for International Development and
Solidarity (CIDSE), who said international banks can handle the
collection of global taxes; Christopher Aguiton of Association for
Taxation of Transactions to Aide Citizens (ATTAC-France), an
organization which is conducting an international effort to gain
support of the Tobin Tax; and Catherine Matheson of War on Want
[U.K.], who is working on systems for administering global taxes.

 The speakers and attendees said an international conference
on global financing is scheduled for next year, possibly resulting in the
creation of a new international body to administer the taxes.

U.S. Eyes Europe's Echelon Probe

by Steve Kettmann

July 6, 2000 -  American critics of the National Security
Agency's so-called Echelon tech surveillance system are welcoming
mounting European efforts to investigate the system and allegations
that it has been used for industrial espionage.

That effort took a big step forward on Wednesday when the European
Parliament appointed a 36-member committee that will spend a year
investigating Echelon and plans to hold public hearings this fall.
Critics hope the hearings won't be as limited in scope as were the
U.S. House Intelligence Committee hearings earlier this year.

"It's a major step forward," said Barry Steinhardt, associate director
of the New York office of the American Civil Liberties Union, which
maintains the echelonwatch.org website. "We've gone past the point
where Echelon is X Files material and can be dismissed as paranoia.

"It's been the intercession of the European Parliament that has forced
the issue out into the open and forced the United States government
to admit that Echelon exists and to begin to publicly account for their
actions."

U.S. Representative Bob Barr (R-Georgia), an outspoken critic of U.S.
intelligence, welcomed the European effort, and said he hopes it will
help raise awareness about how ordinary citizens' privacy is also at
stake.

"My goal in examining our intelligence surveillance activities continues
to be protecting the privacy of American citizens," Barr said in a
statement released through a spokesman. "While European nations are
primarily concerned with protecting their commercial interests, I
welcome any inquiry that helps further the debate about how intelligence
activities should be conducted.

The European Parliament action came one day after French prosecutor
Jean-Pierre Dintilhac ordered the French counter-intelligence agency,
DST, to investigate whether the purported global surveillance system
violated the rights of French citizens.

Two weeks ago, a Dutch parliamentary committee announced it planned
to hold hearings on Echelon as well. The system can allegedly intercept
email, faxes, and phone conversations.

As the ACLU site says:

"Echelon is perhaps the most powerful intelligence gathering
organization in the world. Several credible reports suggest that this
global electronic communications surveillance system presents an extreme
threat to the privacy of people all over the world. According to these
reports, Echelon attempts to capture staggering volumes of satellite,
microwave, cellular, and fiber-optic traffic, including communications
to and from North America. This vast quantity of voice and data
communications are then processed through sophisticated filtering
technologies. This massive surveillance system apparently operates
with little oversight."

The Echelon system, discussed for years in shadowy, speculative terms,
became a major topic in Europe when British analyst Duncan Campbell
prepared a detailed report on Echelon for the European Parliament and
delivered it last year.

Among the more controversial aspects of his findings was the contention
that the U.S. government -- along with the U.K., Canada, Australia,
and New Zealand -- used its worldwide array of satellite-dish listening
devices to conduct industrial espionage.

Carlos Coelho, the Portuguese Christian Democrat likely to be selected
to head the European Parliament committee on Thursday, said that part
of the work of investigating Echelon will be to quash some of the wider
speculation on the system. He also said the committee would endeavor
to glean more information about exactly what spying takes place and
how it might be subjected to checks and balances.

"Some things were published that were not true, that are not technically
possible," Coelho said in a phone interview. "But there are others
we have to look into and find out if this can happen and in what way.
We have to protect our citizens and our enterprises. That's our duty."

Coelho was at pains to assure Americans that the committee's expected
year-long investigation springs from a groundswell of public concern
in Europe. Since Campbell delivered his report on Echelon to the
European Parliament last fall, he said, the topic of alleged U.S. spying
on European businesses has been thrashed around in public at length.

"There was a huge debate in the countries of the European Union," he
said. "Everybody is very worried that this system can work without
being under the law, without being under judicial mandates, and it
can be a kind of attack on privacy. They are worried that there are
European enterprises in the situation of having unfair chances because
of this system.

 is  click here.

 This is the unedited version of my interview with former CIA agent Phil
 Agee.  click here  to go back to the Daily Beacon Page. If you want to
 get in touch with me via e-mail  click here.

 SR:  The first question that I have is that people have the impression
 that the CIA is a Big Omnipresent Government Agency with its hand in
 everything. How true is this belief?

 PA:  I think that's relatively untrue and it depends what period of
 history you are talking about. During the 1960's President Johnson was
 obsessed with the idea that there was a foreign hand behind the anti-war
 movement and he told the FBI to find that hand. The FBI did the
 investigation and they couldn't find it and they told Johnson that and
 he hit the roof, he said there is a foreign hand in there. So he told
 the CIA in 1967 "I want you to find the foreign hand."

 And, so the CIA begin a whole series of illegal operations inside the
 United States because they are, by law, barred from an internal security
 function. But they searched high and low abroad and in the United States
 and they went back to Johnson and told him "No, we can't find the
 foreign hand; and there is no foreign hand as far as we're concerned of
 any significance."

 By that time Johnson's presidency was destroyed by the Vietnam War and
 in came Richard Nixon in 1969. Nixon too was obsessed with finding the
 foreign hand behind the anti-war movement. He had the CIA continue these
 illegal operations that they were doing and had the FBI also continue a
 whole series of operations that were illegal against the anti-war
 movement and against various groups particularly the Black Panthers.

  The FBI continued to tell Nixon that there was no foreign hand the CIA
 did the same. So Nixon came up with what was known as the Houston Plan,
 after Tom Houston who was an assistant council to the President, and
 this was a whole series of illegal operations to intensify this search
 for the foreign hand and at the same time to neutralize the opposition
 to Nixon's policies in Vietnam.

 He was paranoid, as everyone knows, he was so paranoid that he even
 bugged himself. But, it never turned up, the foreign hand, because there
 was no foreign hand to turn up. The CIA was collecting files on
 thousands of people at that time inside this country. But that was an
 unusual period, even though they had been reviewing mail, going out to
 the Soviet Union and other communist countries and other places for some
 20 years from 1952 to 1972, I don't think that you can say that the CIA
 hand is everywhere.

 Or ever was everywhere in the United States. It has a definite role and
 it carries out this role mainly, almost exclusively, abroad. Whereas the
 FBI is the Agency charged with internal security, and wherever a group
 arose, and whenever a group arose that the FBI considered to be a threat
 to the stability, a potential threat to the stability, of the United
 States, and this goes on into the 1930's; they would initiate what they
 call counterintelligence programs or COINTELLPROS for short.

  These operations went on into the 1970's and they only became known
 after unknown persons stole several thousand pages from the FBI offices
 in Pennsylvania and this eventually came out in the press. And then the
 whole COINTELPRO program became known and Hoover stopped it as such.
 But, there can be know doubt that this continued on into the 1980's in
 the operations against the solidarity movement with El Salvador and
 Nicaragua because there have been exposes on those operations.

 So, the way to look at this is that the FBI and the CIA are organized to
 sustain and promote stability. The CIA outside the United States the FBI
 inside the United States. And this means secret operations against all
 those groups that are potentially destabalizing factors. And so its a
 matter of looking at the groups that exist and assuming that they are
 going to be targets and that there is where the attention will fall. But
 not over the general population as such.

 SR:  How much of what the American public hears through the mass media
 about foreign relations is true? Do we practice what we preach?

 PA:  We certainly don't practice what we

Chief rabbis prepared to forgo control of certain 'holy places'
But Old City sites will need tripartite religious agreement

By Amir Oren
Ha'aretz Correspondent

The night before Prime Minister Ehud Barak was to leave for Camp
David, he sent a special emissary to the two chief rabbis,
Yisrael Lau and Eliahu Bakshi-Doron. The emissary was a general
who usually isn't in uniform: Maj.  Gen. Yaakov "Mendy" Orr,
government coordinator in the territories, who is on Barak's
staff at the Camp David summit. His mission: to find out where
the chief rabbis stand - and what they'll say to the public -
about the religious issues at stake in the negotiations.

Orr went back to Barak after two hours with partial success. On
one issue, at least, the rabbis will stand by Barak. But that
issue, no matter how important, is secondary to the much more
critical issue: the Temple Mount.

Lau and Bakshi-Doron told Orr - and through him, Barak - that
they would not oppose transfer of control over Rachel's Tomb,
Joseph's Tomb and even the Tomb of the Patriarchs, to the
Palestinians, as long as appropriate measures were taken to
guarantee access, prayer rights and security for Jews at the
sites. Neither the halakha nor tradition, they said, requires
Jewish sovereignty over graves, including the graves of the
religious pantheon. Jews have always given in to the geography
that gives others sovereignty over the final resting spots of
Jews, from Moses on Mount Nevo in Jordan, to Rabbi Nahman of
Breslau in Uman in Ukraine. There is always the matter of the
ownership of the property, but it too is a matter that is derived
from sovereignty.

This is substantial support for the expected IDF withdrawal from
the remaining territories in Hebron, Bethlehem and Nablus in an
agreement with the Palestinians. But it does not solve the Temple
Mount issue.

The preliminary staff work before the departure for Camp David
was based on the assumption that the Israeli public would agree
to hand over Arab neighborhoods in East Jerusalem outside the Old
City to Palestinian jurisdiction. Israeli Jerusalem in July 2000
is eight times the size of Jerusalem on June 5, 1967. In exchange
for transferring the Arab neighborhoods to Palestine, within the
context of an umbrella municipality, Israel will not only finally
win international recognition of its capital, but Israeli
Jerusalemites will enjoy a deep cut in their city taxes.

However, there is no easy solution for the Temple Mount issue.
The chief rabbis agree that the halakha forbids any Jew from
going onto the Mount until the conditions are right (the
reconstruction of the Temple, with the arrival of the messiah),
but they do not believe that Jewish sovereignty over the Mount
can be relinquished. The Palestinians, through the waqf, would
never dare to relinquish the claims to the Mount that they hold
on behalf of the Arab world and Islam.

It's a religious problem more than a political one. And that's
where a formula might be found for a tripartite,
Jewish-Muslim-Christian administration that would preserve the
status quo - but that's a formula that still needs a rhetorical
juggle that would win approval not only from the Israelis and
Palestinians but from authorities far from the Holy Land.

The Jewish Community of Hebron issued the following statement:

If the above article is true, this can only be described as an
act of overt betrayal of the foundations of our very being. How
is it possible that the 'religious leaders' of the Jewish people
in Eretz Yisrael, in the State of Israel, could possibly agree to
abandon the holiest of sites - Ma'arat HaMachpela in Hebron, the
Tomb of Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebecca, Jacob and Lea,
Kever Rachel, the Tomb of Rachel in Bethlehem, and Kever Yosef,
the Tomb of Joseph in Shechem!? Both Ma'arat HaMachpela and Kever
Yosef were purchased by Jews, as recorded in the Bible. Millions
of Jews have worshipped at all these sites over the centuries.

These three holy sites, together with Temple Mount, represent,
more than any other places in the world, the Jewish people. The
very agreement to relinquish them is traitorous.

BUSH AND COLIN POWELL'S NEW WORLD ORDER

To make up for his lack of gravitas, as well as his self-admitted shortcomings
in the realm of foreign policy expertise, George W. Bush and his senior
advisors have made it clear that Colin Powell is going to be their choice for
Secretary of State – and Powell has signaled that he just might accept. There
is even some talk of Dubya announcing his Cabinet picks during the Democratic
national convention: if Powell is among the designees then this is sure to
steal the spotlight at a crucial moment. Not only that, but it is virtually
certain to provoke hosannas from Republicans of the "responsible" right as well
as the moderate, Ripon-ish center: for Powell-mania transcends political
categories and ideologies. It doesn't matter that Powell supports a whole
panoply of proposals that are anathema to conservative Republicans. The General
is virtually immune to all criticism from Republicans, even though he favors
affirmative action, as he stated clearly in his speech to the 1996 Republican
convention, and is so mired in black victimology that when a predominantly
black jury let off O. J. Simpson, Powell was quick to come to the jury's
defense:

"People will try to suggest that because there were nine blacks on the jury, it
was a racial judgment. I think that's unfair. These are people who can
understand the facts put before them."

A FREE PASS

Many blacks, in openly celebrating Simpson's acquittal, were quick to state the
real rationale behind the verdict: that, as several put it in news interviews,
"it's payback time." In other words, if we think of Nicole Brown Simpson as a
human sacrifice to the god of black victimology – made in payment for the
injuries inflicted on blacks by racist whites – then her murder was justified.
The jurors understood the "the facts" – and ignored them. Powell's defense of
their verdict was outrageous, and if such a ridiculous explanation had come out
of the mouth of, say, Louis Farrakhan or Lenora Fulani, it would have been
roundly condemned. But the revered Powell gets a free pass, where others are
held accountable: the man is an icon, widely seen as living evidence that we
can, after all, live in a multi-cultural society. Or, as Bruce Llewellyn,
Powell's business partner and cousin, puts it:

"Have you ever heard [Powell's] speeches? He gives a great speech. He gets all
of them white people coming up off the chairs, clapping and feeling good about
themselves. He talks about America, the great land of opportunity, and how a
poor West Indian kid with Jamaican parents and living in the south Bronx can
work his way to be the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. . . . . They all
love this shit. They all love the idea that "Gee, we weren't prejudiced.' . . .
White people love to believe they're fair. One of the things that upsets the
living shit out of them is when you confront them with the fact that they are
really a bunch of racist, no-good motherfuckers." [Cited in Henry Louis Gates,
"Powell and the Black Elite," The New Yorker, September 25, 1995; p. 70.]

THE BANDWAGON THAT WENT OFF THE ROAD

The great wave of Powell-mania that swept the country in 1996 included all too
many conservatives who didn't care that their candidate's views were
considerably to left on many key issues – the sight of Bill Kristol and Arianna
Huffington jumping on the Powell-for-President bandwagon presaged the later
defection of these two intellectual lightweights to the McCainiac camp and the
wacko Left respectively. Still, many veteran conservative leaders, such as
Phyllis Schlafly, Paul Weyrich, and others declared their opposition. This
year, with the Republican hard right taking a back seat to the party's moderate-
to-liberal wing, putting Powell on the ticket, albeit in a secondary spot,
would have been provocative, to say the least. So it's the Secretary of State's
office, and not the White House or the Vice-Presidential Residence, for Powell
– where his views on affirmative action won't rub conservatives the wrong way.
But what kind of a Secretary of State would he make? What are his foreign
policy views? In light of Bush's pre-election appointment, such questions need
to be asked. The inspiring saga of the Powell Myth, the General's by-his-
bootstraps bio, is a personal narrative with little relevance to the
qualifications for the Secretary's job. What are his qualifications, anyway,
aside from his immense popularity and his usefulness in giving the GOP a
(completely phony) multicultural gloss?

A ROCKEFELLER REPUBLICAN

What really scared the Republican right, back in 1996, when it looked as if
Powell might run for – and take – the White House, was his self-designation as
a "Rockefeller Republican." Phyllis Schlafly was particularly perturbed by
this, and wrote:

What Price for Clinton's Legacy?

By Seth Lipsky, a Journal contributing editor.

In August 1992 President Bush, about to go into a general
election against Bill Clinton, invited Prime Minister Yitzhak
Rabin of Israel for a visit at Kennebunkport.  When it was over
Mr.  Bush rushed back to Washington and called in the editors of
some American Jewish newspapers, of which I was one.  Mr.  Bush
was asked whether he had given any thought to making free-market
economic reform in Israel a higher priority than the peace
process.  "I'd have to cop out on that," he replied.

He was then asked: "Do you see any irony in the fact that the
administration you seem to be most comfortable with in Israel is,
in effect, a center-left, Clinton-type administration, and the
one you've rejected" -- this was a reference to the government of
Yitzhak Shamir -- "is, in effect, a center-right administration
in Israel?"


Reckless Meddling

Mr. Bush sort of chuckled and then insisted he hadn't rejected
any administration in Israel.

He went on, of course, to lose to Mr. Clinton.

President Clinton has, much more recklessly than any of his
predecessors, taken to meddling directly in Israel's elections.
After Rabin was assassinated, Mr. Clinton threw his
administration openly into the campaign of his successor, Shimon
Peres. Israel's voters spurned the effort, elevating a
conservative, Benjamin Netanyahu. Mr. Clinton and Secretary of
State Madeleine Albright proceeded to badger and undercut Mr.
Netanyahu throughout his term in an effort to force him to
compromise more than he felt was prudent.

When Ehud Barak made his own run for prime minister, Mr. Clinton
shed all but formal pretense of evenhandedness.  Mr. Barak's
campaign was crafted by Mr. Clinton's own operatives, Stanley
Greenberg, Robert Shrum and James Carville.

Now there is a view in the Jewish community that what Camp David
II is really about is payback.  The concern grows from the fact
that Israelis are deeply divided over the wisdom of the Oslo
peace process.  The Palestinian Arab leadership is openly viewing
the negotiations as but one stage in a long war to annihilate the
Jewish state, and those most in need of a deal at Camp David are
Mr. Clinton, Vice President Al Gore, and Senate candidate Hillary
Clinton.

This view was articulated most pointedly in a posting on the
National Review Web site by Seth Gitell, one of my former
colleagues on the Jewish Forward newspaper.  It is disputed by
those who point out that Mr. Barak himself was the principal
advocate of the summit.  But Mr. Gitell likens Mr. Barak to a
long list of those "who thought they could get something out of
the president and ended up getting used by him instead."

One got a bit of a taste of this at the last big meeting to take
place between the Israelis and the Palestinian Arabs under the
hospitality of Mr.  Clinton, namely the summit at the Wye River
Plantation in the fall of 1998.  Mr. Netanyahu was still Israel's
prime minister.  Mr. Clinton helped clinch a deal there by
promising to review the case of Jonathan Pollard, who is serving
a life sentence for spying against America, and by promising $1.9
billion in new foreign aid to underwrite the concessions the
Israelis were asked to make.

No sooner had the deal been struck than it emerged that Mr.
Clinton had neglected to nail down a Pollard deal with the
director of central intelligence, George Tenet (who reportedly
threatened to quit over the matter), or a funding deal with a key
congressman, Rep. Sonny Callahan, the Alabama Republican who
chairs the House Appropriations subcommittee that deals with
foreign aid.

When Congress balked at the Wye River aid package, Israel's most
famous politician, Natan Sharansky, went up to Capitol Hill to
pay a call on Mr.  Callahan.  When the former prisoner of Zion
began to tell Mr. Callahan that it was important for America to
keep the commitments it had made at Wye, as Mr. Sharansky later
related somewhat ruefully to Ira Stoll of the Jewish Forward, Mr.
Callahan hit the roof.  "What commitments?"  Mr. Callahan asked.
"No one ever picked up the phone and asked me."

Yesterday the New York Times waited until the last paragraph of
an 1,800-word dispatch to drop on its readers the fact that Mr.
Arafat's chief economic adviser, Mohammed Rachid, was saying the
Palestinian Arabs would ask the Americans for $40 billion, much
of it for refugee assistance.

When I read the $40 billion figure, I called Mr. Callahan and
asked him what he made of it.  He said he'd heard all kinds of
dollar amounts, starting at $15 billion and going all the way to
$150 billion, depending on whether one threw in a possible deal
between the Israelis and the Syrians.

He demurred on the question of whether anyone ought to be
preclearing these amounts with the Republican leadership in the
House.  But he warned against any illusion that there's going to
be an endless pot of dollars available to underwrite

Apollo Mission's Masonic Symbols

In 1961, William Branham said: "I tell you now, it's a program
that'll take you a hundred billion, billion, million light years
beyond the moon. That's right. And there if you go to the moon
you couldn't set down because see, you'd jump right back up
unless you had some magnet to hold you there. You couldn't stay
over night; you'd freeze to death. In the daytime you'd burn up.
What you going to do when you get there?" (Basis of Fellowship
61-0214)


The following article is an excerpt from Wm Cooper's site:

http://harvest-trust.org/majestyt.htm

NASA was created to make interstellar travel believable. The
Apollo Space Program foisted the idea that man could travel to,
and walk upon, the moon. Every Apollo mission was carefully
rehearsed and then filmed in large sound stages at the Atomic
Energy Commissions Top Secret test site in the Nevada Desert and
in a secured and guarded sound stage at the Walt Disney Studios
within which was a huge scale mock-up of the moon.

All of the names, missions, landing sites, and events in the
Apollo Space Program echoed the occult metaphors, rituals, and
symbology of the Illuminati's secret religion: The most
transparent was the faked explosion on the spacecraft Apollo 13,
named "Aquarius" (new age) at 1:13 (1313 military time) on April
13, 1970 which was the metaphor for the initiation ceremony
involving the death (explosion), placement in the coffin (period
of uncertainty of their survival), communion with the spiritual
world and the imparting of esoteric knowledge to the candidate
(orbit and observation of the moon without physical contact),
rebirth of the initiate (solution of problem and repairs), and
the raising up (of the Phoenix, the new age of Aquarius) by the
grip of the lions paw (reentry and recovery of Apollo 13). 13 is
the number of death and rebirth, death and reincarnation,
sacrifice, the Phoenix, the Christ (perfected soul imprisoned in
matter), and the transition from the old to the new. Another
revelation to those who understand the symbolic language of the
Illuminati is the hidden meaning of the names of the Space
Shuttles, "A Colombian Enterprise to Endeavor for the Discovery
of Atlantis... and all Challengers shall be destroyed."

Exploration of the moon stopped because it was impossible to
continue the hoax without being ultimately discovered: And of
course they ran out of pre-filmed episodes.

No man has ever ascended higher than 300 miles, if that high,
above the Earth's surface. No man has ever orbited, landed on, or
walked upon the moon in any publicly known space program. If man
has ever truly been to the moon it has been done in secret and
with a far different technology.

The tremendous radiation encountered in the Van Allen Belt, solar
radiation, cosmic radiation, temperature control, and many other
problems connected with space travel prevent living organisms
leaving our atmosphere with our known level of technology. Any
intelligent high school student with a basic physics book can
prove NASA faked the Apollo moon landings.

If you doubt this please explain how the astronauts walked upon
the moons surface enclosed in a space suit in full sunlight
absorbing a minimum of 265 degrees of heat surrounded by a
vacuum. NASA tells us the moon has no atmosphere and that the
astronauts were surrounded by the vacuum of space.

Heat is defined as the vibration or movement of molecules within
matter. The faster the molecular motion the higher the
temperature. The slower the molecular motion the colder the
temperature. Absolute zero is that point where all molecular
motion ceases. In order to have hot or cold molecules must be
present.

A vacuum is a condition of nothingness where there are no
molecules. Vacuums exist in degrees. Some scientists tell us that
there is no such thing as an absolute vacuum. Space is the
closest thing to an absolute vacuum that is known to us. There
are so few molecules present in most areas of what we know as
"space" that any concept of "hot" or "cold" is impossible to
measure. A vacuum is a perfect insulator. That is why a "Thermos"
or vacuum bottle is used to store hot or cold liquids in order to
maintain the temperature for the longest time possible without
re-heating or re-cooling.

Radiation of all types will travel through a vacuum but will not
affect the vacuum. Radiant heat from the sun travels through the
vacuum of space but does not "warm" space. In fact the radiant
heat of the sun has no affect whatsoever until it strikes matter.
Molecular movement will increase in direct proportion to the
radiant energy which is absorbed by matter. The time it takes to
heat matter exposed to direct sunlight in space is determined by
its color, its elemental properties, its distance from the sun,
and its rate of absorption of radiant heat energy. Space is NOT
hot. Space is NOT cold.

[CTRL] On Television Induced Photosensitive Epilepsy

2000-07-12 Thread MICHAEL SPITZER

"The researchers note that while the disorder is not very common,

a result of the proliferation of television display units and
video games, which may act as triggers.''

Abnormal brain response caused Pokemon-induced seizures

NEW YORK, Feb 22 (Reuters Health) -- Italian scientists have
figured out how an episode of the television cartoon Pokemon may
have caused epileptic seizures in 685 Japanese children in 1997.

The problem was caused by an abnormal brain response in these
children to flashing lights featured in the cartoon, signaling a
brain disorder known as photosensitive epilepsy. Dr. Vittorio
Porciatti of the Institute of Neurophysiology in Pisa and
colleagues say that a mechanism in the brain that controls the
reaction to visual information ``is defective or absent in''
people with photosensitive epilepsy.

It has been known for many years that strobe lights or flashing
lights may cause seizures in people with this type of epilepsy,
but it was unclear how the lights induced this response. In an
attempt to understand that process, Porciatti and colleagues
exposed eleven patients with photosensitive epilepsy to different
patterns of flashing lights and studied the brainwaves of these
patients in response to the lights.

Compared with people who did not have the disorder,
photosensitive epileptics had abnormal brain activity in response
to slow-flashing lights with high contrast. These are the type of
lights ``common in TV images and in video games, and may be
important in triggering the abnormal (brain) response underlying
visually induced epileptic seizures,'' the researchers write in
the March issue of Nature Neuroscience.

The researchers note that while the disorder is not very common,
affecting between 0.5 - 0.8% of children between the ages of 4 -
14, they suspect that photosensitive epilepsy ``is increasing as
a result of the proliferation of television display units and
video games, which may act as triggers.''

[CTRL] Scientologist Death Said Accidental

Scientologist Death Said Accidental

ASSOCIATED PRESS


ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) -- Four years after a Scientologist
died while being treated by church members following a traffic
accident, a medical examiner ruled the woman's death was
accidental.

The decision by Pasco-Pinellas Medical Examiner Joan Wood to
change the cause of Lisa McPherson's death from "undetermined"
could have a major impact on the state's prosecution of the
Clearwater-based church.

Prosecutors have charged the church with practicing medicine
without a license and abusing a disabled adult for its treatment
of McPherson. Now, prosecutors have to decide whether to drop,
amend or pursue the charges.

"We need to review (Wood's decision)," said Assistant State Doug
Crow said Wednesday. "I wouldn't want to speculate about what
effect it may have."

Church attorney Sandy Weinberg predicted that if prosecutors do
not dismiss the charges, a judge will.

Wood, who was unavailable for comment, filed the amended autopsy
Friday after reviewing new medical evidence and test results,
most of them provided by church-hired experts, said her attorney,
Jeff Goodis.

Wood originally said McPherson died of a blood clot in her lungs
caused by bed rest and severe dehydration, but the new report
drops the references to bed rest and dehydration and lists
psychosis and the auto accident as contributing factors.

McPherson, 36, died in December 1995, 17 days after being
involved in a minor traffic accident. She took off her clothes
and began walking down the street. Police took her to a hospital,
but she left with Scientology officials, who wanted her to avoid
psychiatric treatment, which is against church teachings.

Prosecutors say she was given unprescribed medicine and forcibly
restrained by church officials. McPherson eventually was taken to
a hospital, but was pronounced dead.

Church officials have denied the charges.

The Church of Scientology, based in Los Angeles, was founded in
1954 by the late science-fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard. His book
"Dianetics" formed the basis of his philosophy that traumatic
memories in past lives could be cleared through church
counseling.

Sioux Tribal Members End Takeover

ASSOCIATED PRESS


AGENCY VILLAGE, S.D. (AP) -- Members of the Sisseton-Wahpeton
Sioux tribe filed out of tribal headquarters here, claiming their
takeover of the building achieved their goals.

The protesters left Wednesday after the tribal council agreed to
suspend the panel that governs the tribe's casinos. The
demonstrators had barricaded themselves in the council chambers
Tuesday afternoon, demanding an investigation of alleged tribal
corruption.

"This started out as a council meeting," said Paul McCabe,
special agent with the FBI in Minneapolis. "When the council
meeting was adjourned, some people who were in attendance there
asked for the resignation of the council and the gaming board.

"They adjourned the council, and then these people were joined by
some armed individuals."

No shots were fired, and several protesters and their supporters
denied they had any weapons. Early reports indicated anywhere
from eight to 15 people were inside the building. Later estimates
ranged to 25.

Tribal leaders have grown wealthy from casino proceeds while the
tribe's poor have gotten poorer, the protesters said.

"This corruption has to stop," said Smiley Shepherd, former
manager of two of the tribe's casinos. "Our elders are being
abused, living in snake-infested apartments while the council and
(casino) executives are making high five-digit salaries."

During the 90-day suspension of the seven-member panel that
governs the casinos, the protesters' concerns and complaints will
be studied, said Rosebud Marshall, judicial representative from
the tribe's Old Agency District.

In the southwestern corner of South Dakota, the Oglala Sioux
tribal headquarters at Pine Ridge has been occupied by protesters
since Jan. 16 in a stalemate with a faction representing the
tribal treasurer, whom the occupiers accuse of mismanaging funds.

WSWS : News  Analysis : Medicine  Health : BSE/CJD
Renewed fears that BSE/Mad Cow Disease can pass from one generation to another
By Barry Mason
12 July 2000
Back to screen version

Britain's Agricultural Minister confirmed in parliament last month that a calf
had been born with Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) or Mad Cow Disease.
The animal was born after August 1, 1996, when extra control measures on animal
feed containing mammalian meat and bone meal had been implemented, supposed to
eradicate the incidence of BSE.

BSE is a degenerative brain disease in cattle, first recognised in the mid-
1980s, caused by the infectious prion protein. The disease is thought to have
resulted from the practice of feeding ruminant animals with the treated remains
of slaughtered animals. It is responsible for the development of a new variant
(vCJD) of the fatal brain-wasting disorder Creutzfeldt Jacob Disease.

Despite the potentially grave dangers posed to public health by his
confirmation, Agriculture Minister Nick Brown went on to claim that “there is
no risk to food safety as a result of this case”. The newly-established Food
Standards Agency (FSA) would also be issuing a statement to that effect later
in the day, Brown said, adding that the FSA chairman had also stated that there
was “no extra risk to food safety” posed by the recent case.

Brown's announcement continues a long-running cover-up over BSE and its impact
on the human population, dating back to the Conservative administration of
Margaret Thatcher. Ever since the emergence of BSE and its human equivalent,
the main issue for successive British governments has been to protect the
profits of the beef industry.

To this end, scientists like Professor Richard Lacey, who had warned of the
dangers of eating BSE-contaminated beef and called for the destruction of
England's national herd, were subjected to a campaign of vilification. BSE
first became a notifiable disease in cattle in 1988 and in July of that year
the ban on mammalian meat and bone meal was brought in. In 1992, nearly 37,000
cases of BSE were recorded in the UK, yet still the Conservative government
denied any danger to human health.

Certain limited measures were introduced which undermined this claim, including
a ban on the use of specified bovine offals in the human food chain. Later, the
“30-month rule” was introduced, preventing the use of cattle over 30 months in
human food. Even so, the regulations were ineffective and poorly enforced. The
30-month rule moreover meant that animals with the disease but not yet showing
symptoms might still be entering the food chain.

Only when a number of young people began to exhibit symptoms similar to those
of CJD normally found in older people, and several died as a result, was it
accepted that BSE had passed into the human food chain with fatal consequences.
The number of fatalities has increased steadily, and to date a total of 58
mainly young people have died of the disease in the UK. The Edinburgh-based CJD
surveillance unit says that another 12 cases have been identified. Many
scientists have warned that the death toll might still not have peaked and that
the final figure could be in the thousands.

When the Labour government came to power in May 1997 they had to tackle the
widespread public concern in Britain and internationally that had caused a
collapse in the British beef industry. To this end, Blair convened a public
inquiry into BSE under Lord Justice Phillips. The inquiry has yet to report.
However, Labour had stipulated that the inquiry would only consider matters up
to March 1996, when the link between BSE and vCJD was first officially
recognised, and that subsequent developments—including continued fears of the
danger to public health—would not be examined.

The Blair government also announced the establishment of the FSA—a new agency
supposedly answerable to the consumer and aimed at restoring public confidence
in the food industry.

Brown's statement in parliament effectively exposed the FSA's role as a rubber
stamp for the government and food industry. It also confirms that Labour
intends to continue defending the agricultural industry at the expense of
public health.

The Agriculture Minister gave two possible explanations for the occurrence:
either the calf had caught the disease through maternal transmission, he said,
or it had been fed contaminated cattle feed. The government had extended the
ban on mammalian meat and bone meal in August 1996, making it illegal to hold
supplies of it on farms or in feed mills.

In his statement, however, Brown also described maternal transmission as being
only a “theoretical” possibility, despite well-documented evidence that
scrapie, a prion disease found in sheep similar to BSE, can be passed from
mother to offspring.

More troubling, in March this year it was announced that a 24-year-old woman

THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON LANDINGS

The idea that we went to the Moon - and that we were successful
in our Apollo endeavours - is so firmly embedded in the cultural
lives of most people on this planet, that to voice the opinion
that this might be untrue smacks of paranoia and to present
evidence for these doubts smacks of heresy. If this opinion is
correct, then the majority of us have been conned; that, we've
been taken for a ride that has lasted 27 years. A ride that's
been generating its own momentum and most of us are still on it!
Throughout aviation history and space exploration, the prime and
lasting record of our achievements has been preserved as
photographic images, movie film and in recent times, television
coverage. We are in no doubt that these records reflect the
actual events as they occurred, disasters and triumphs included.
Particularly in the exploration of space - and going to the Moon
is a perfect example in which there are no independent witnesses
to the actual events- we have the right to expect the record to
be genuine, honestly portrayed, and responsibly reported. In
actual fact, mankind has no proof at all that we ever set foot on
the Moon, other than the photographs that NASA has elected to
publish. In this article, David Percy, an award winning film and
TV producer, 'focuses' on some of these images, formulating the
kind of brief that might have been given to the first lunar
surface photographers to produce such questionable images. While
such matters as the alleged Moon rocks are important, if the
Apollo photos are faked, then they and everything else will find
its own place in this NASA jigsaw.


We are now waking up to the possibility that NASA's photographic
coverage of the landings on the Moon between 1969 and 1972 may
not be genuine - this includes both the film and the TV
broadcasts. Following detailed photographic analysis of NASA
images, I have gained compelling evidence that there was indeed a
falsification of the record and although NASA might seek to
justify its actions, there can be no acceptable defence for such
dishonesty. Those whom I call 'Whistle-Blowers' appear to have
encoded the information needed to discover this sad truth. Their
information is found in the photography, in the processing and in
the final compositing and retouching. I have organised my
discoveries under the headings of a series of photographic rules.

Photo rule No 1:

Light travels in straight, parallel lines at any given moment.
Shadow directions are constant because the light comes from the
sun over 90 million miles away.

Take a look at photo 1, typical tree shadows. Notice the virtual
parallel lines of shadow - and the shadow side of the trees is
dark. No detail. This is not surprising.


Now compare with the panoramic shot, photo 2, supposedly taken on
the Moon, you can work out where the sources of light are! ...
Not very far away! These shadows are not parallel.


In photo 3 they converge to a point on the alleged lunar surface.
This is an impossible situation in natural sunlight. Also notice
that the shadow side isn't dark and the shaded side of the gold
visor reflects a bright source of light. Very surprising! Daytime
on the lunar surface lasts for a period of 14 'Earth' days, but
in the NASA images, shadow lengths vary within the time frame (a
few hours or days) of the alleged mission. Shadow lengths are at
odds with the sun angles at the time of the supposed trip.


For example, during 'Apollo 11' the sun was at 10 degrees above
the horizon but the pictures depict 30 degrees or so! See photo
4. Is this a mistake, or a Whistle-Blower's clue? Varying shadow
lengths within any given picture or TV scene imply more than one
light source, sometimes positioned at different heights! Clearly,
if a picture is genuine, it's not possible to have variations in
shadow direction within any one picture.


The shadows in photo 5 are all over the place.




Again in photo 6, there are more shadow 'problems' with the
rocks. Long shadows, short shadows, grey shadows, dark shadows,
some filled-in, some not filled-in - real Whistle-Blowing!


The TV image, photo 7, is another example of differential shadow
lengths. Additionally, there is visual evidence of the use of a
large, very near, ARTIFICIAL source of light.


The TV image, photo 8, shows a reflection of a light source
occupying approximately 25% of the convex visor. This, in my
view, indicates the use of a super-light of an incredible size,
positioned extremely close to the action.

Photo rule No 2:

Light in a vacuum is high contrast - ie. very bright on the sun
side, very dark on the shadow side - and on the Moon there is no
atmosphere to help fill-in or soften/lighten the shadows.
Consider 'Apollo 16'.


In photo 9, you see the shadow area of an 'astronaut' filed-in,
indicating the deployment of reflectors (not seen in

ONCE AGAIN, EX-AGENT PHILIP AGEE ELUDES CIA's GRASP
Los Angeles Times
NATION  WORLD
Tuesday, October 14, 1997

By JAMES RISEN, Times Staff Writer
Espionage: An effort to get secrets for Cuba was foiled, but he got away
before case against him could be made, officials say. He denies charges.

WASHINGTON -- It was an aggressive, even reckless bit of espionage,
allegedly committed by a man too well known for his own good.

CIA officials and other U.S. government sources charged that Philip
Agee, a former CIA officer, author and CIA critic, went undercover as a
spy for Cuba in late 1989 to try to pry secrets out of a female staff
member in the agency's Mexico City station.

U.S. officials alleged that Agee was acting on behalf of Cuba's
intelligence service, which has long staked out Mexico as a central
espionage battleground with the CIA. Agee has denied the charges.

Agee, posing as a member of the CIA's inspector general's staff, tried
to convince the staff member that he needed information about the Mexico
City station as part of a secret investigation, the officials charged.
CIA sources said that Cuban intelligence traditionally has targeted
women staffers in their espionage operations.

The plot failed, U.S. officials said, when the CIA employee reported the
contact and brought two CIA case officers with her to her second meeting
with Agee. But one of the two case officers told Agee that he recognized
him, the officials said, and Agee ended his efforts before enough
evidence could be collected against him to bring formal charges.

The two CIA officers later were disciplined for their failure to notify
their superiors of Agee's alleged action early enough for the FBI to
launch a criminal investigation of whether the former CIA agent had
committed espionage against the United States.

Agee's alleged willingness to act as a field
agent for the Cubans astonished U.S. intelligence officials.

They said they believe that Agee -- who quit the CIA during the Vietnam
War in 1968 and later was known for his willingness to expose undercover
CIA officers and operations through public lectures, magazines and books
-- has been working for Cuban intelligence since the early 1970s.

A high-ranking Cuban defector in 1992 told The Times that Agee had
repeatedly taken money that the Cuban intelligence service had received
from the Soviet KGB intelligence agency.

But CIA officers said that they had never seen Agee work openly as a
field operative for the Cubans until his alleged approach to the female
CIA staff member in Mexico City -- an incident that remains classified.

In written responses to a series of questions from The Times, Agee
denied that he was involved in the Mexico City case. He suggested that
the story of his involvement in Mexico City had been inspired by the CIA
to counter a lawsuit in which he is seeking damages for alleged illegal
actions committed against him by the CIA in the early 1970s.

He stressed that he is not a Cuban agent.

"The story is one more in a long line of false allegations [inspired by
the CIA] going back to the first mention of me in the New York Times of
July 4, 1974," Agee 

[CTRL] Cyber-Attack Tool Appears In Windows-run Systems (fwd)

2000-07-12 Thread MICHAEL SPITZER

-- Forwarded message --
Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2000 02:54:46 -0700
From: Raphael SF Zvetkoff [EMAIL PROTECTED]


-- The FBI Wednesday was continuing to warn of a troubling new
development in the fight against cyber-attacks, such as the ones
that crippled some of the most popular sites on the Internet.

For the first time, the tools used to launch such attacks have
been found on computer systems using later versions of Windows.
Warnings about the tools, which can be found "in the wild" on the
Internet, were first posted on the Web site of the National
Infrastructure Protection Center on Dec. 30. NIPC is a
multi-agency unit headquartered in the FBI in Washington, and is
the government's front-line defense against cyber-attacks.

But those early warnings involved "distributed denial of
service," or DDOS, tools that could be used to launch attacks
against Solaris-run computers, not those using the more popular
Windows operating system. Those earlier versions were used in
this month's attacks.

However, NIPC is now warning that new tools similar to the
earlier "Trin00" and "Tribe Flood Network" have shown up on
Windows systems.

"NIPC determined that the tool was found on 16 Windows 98
machines on a university network," the agency's latest advisory
says. The advisory was posted last Friday, but is still available
on the unit's Web site.

The FBI did not give details, but the machines are believed to be
in California.

"Denial of service" attacks depend on "packets" or "daemons"
being implanted into "victim" computer systems, turning them into
"zombies." Scores or hundreds of such "zombie" computer systems
can be made to launch an attack on a target without the knowledge
of their operators.

The "zombie" systems essentially send a flood of requests for
information to the target Web site, but provide "spoofed" or
phony return e-mail addresses, locking the sites up for hours
in a futile attempt to answer the requests.

NIPC says before they were nullified, the 16 "infected" Windows
machines were communicating with each other, without the
knowledge of their operators. The unit said it has already
moved to counter the new threat, sending DDOS binaries to
anti-virus vendors so they can modify their software.

Meanwhile, the investigation into the attacks earlier this
month is also continuing. An FBI spokeswoman said Wednesday
that "leads have taken us to Canada," but declined further
comment. A Clinton administration official outside the FBI
confirmed that U.S. agents are working closely with the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police in the hunt for possible suspects.

IBM's wearable PC may debut early next year

June 30, 2000

by George A. Chidi Jr.


NEW YORK (IDG) -- IBM's wearable PC could be ready for the market
as early as the beginning of next year, although the company
needs to work further at refining and testing the design, an IBM
engineer said here Wednesday.

More effort is needed to shrink and test the technology,
according to Russell Budd, an engineer on the IBM project.

"We need to know what the customer wants, and build it in," he
said here at PC Expo.

Most of the people who tried on the wearable PC at the show
Wednesday seemed enthusiastic about it. The device has a high
gee-whiz factor, something IBM highlights in company commercials
featuring a young man sitting alone in a park full of pigeons,
screaming stock orders into the wearable PC's headset.

Hardware innovation

The system links a head display harness to a wide, black shoulder
sash with the computer processing hardware.

The display device is a toothbrush-sized bar extending from the
headgear like a monocle on one side of the wearer's face. It
projects the image of a computer screen in front of the user's
eye. The wearer can control the computer using voice commands or
a mouse built like a pilot's hand-grip with the buttons mounted
like triggers.

The ghostly image of a Windows operating system desktop doesn't
interfere significantly with a wearer's field of vision, but
seeing the screen, no matter which way you turn your head, can be
a little disorienting, said Darwen Perez, a computer programmer
from New York, who tried out the PC at the show.

"It's something you could get used to, though," he added.

Field testing for the wearable computer started with airplane
manufacturers and ship inspectors -- workers who need access to
detailed information and their hands free at the same time, said
Istvan Lovas, an optical engineer for IBM.

"When the field guys were inspecting ships for damage, crawling
into tight spaces, they couldn't carry a (traditional) computer
with them," he said.

IBM's wearable computer uses standard computer processing chips
and can run Microsoft's Windows 98 operating system. The shoulder
sash with the computer's processor and memory weighs about a
pound or two.

Although the device is comparatively light, it's still big and
bulky enough to qualify as a major fashion accessory -- a fact
that deterred at least one user.

"I'm an older lady. I don't like to carry things," said Eva
Simonyi, an exhibitor at PC Expo who tried out the wearable PC.
"If I can put it in my pocket, then I'll use it."

[CTRL] FBI's Carnivore Program

2000-07-12 Thread William Shannon

FBI system covertly searches e-mail

Superfast system called 'Carnivore' searches e-mails for messages from
criminal suspects, thus raising legal issues, privacy concerns.

By Neil King Jr. and Ted Bridis, WSJ Interactive Edition
July 11, 2000 6:01 AM PT

WASHINGTON -- The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation is using a superfast
system called Carnivore to covertly search e-mails for messages from criminal
suspects.

Essentially a personal computer stuffed with specialized software, Carnivore
represents a new twist in the federal government's fight to sustain its
snooping powers in the Internet age. But in employing the system, which can
scan millions of e-mails a second, the FBI has upset privacy advocates and
some in the computer industry. Experts say the system opens a thicket of
unresolved legal issues and privacy concerns.



The FBI developed the Internet wiretapping system at a special agency lab at
Quantico, Va., and dubbed it Carnivore for its ability to get to "the meat"
of what would otherwise be an enormous quantity of data. FBI technicians
unveiled the system to a roomful of astonished industry specialists here two
weeks ago in order to steer efforts to develop standardized ways of complying
with federal wiretaps. Federal investigators say they have used Carnivore in
fewer than 100 criminal cases since its launch early last year.

Word of the Carnivore system has disturbed many in the Internet industry
because, when deployed, it must be hooked directly into Internet service
providers' computer networks. That would give the government, at least
theoretically, the ability to eavesdrop on all customers' digital
communications, from e-mail to online banking and Web surfing.

The system also troubles some Internet service providers, who are loath to
see outside software plugged into their systems. In many cases, the FBI keeps
the secret Carnivore computer system in a locked cage on the provider's
premises, with agents making daily visits to retrieve the data captured from
the provider's network. But legal challenges to the use of Carnivore are few,
and judges' rulings remain sealed because of the secretive nature of the
investigations.

Internet eavesdropping
Internet wiretaps are conducted only under state or federal judicial order,
and occur relatively infrequently. The huge majority of wiretaps continue to
be the traditional telephone variety, though U.S. officials say the use of
Internet eavesdropping is growing as everyone from drug dealers to potential
terrorists begins to conduct business over the Web.


The FBI defends Carnivore as more precise than Internet wiretap methods used
in the past. The bureau says the system allows investigators to tailor an
intercept operation so they can pluck only the digital traffic of one person
from among the stream of millions of other messages. An earlier version,
aptly code-named Omnivore, could suck in as much as to six gigabytes of data
every hour, but in a less discriminating fashion.

Still, critics contend that Carnivore is open to abuse.

Mark Rasch, a former federal computer-crimes prosecutor, said the nature of
the surveillance by Carnivore raises important privacy questions, since it
analyzes part of every snippet of data traffic that flows past, if only to
determine whether to record it for police.

"It's the electronic equivalent of listening to everybody's phone calls to
see if it's the phone call you should be monitoring," Rasch said. "You
develop a tremendous amount of information."

Others say the technology dramatizes how far the nation's laws are lagging
behind the technological revolution. "This is a clever way to use old
telephone-era statutes to meet new challenges, but clearly there is too much
latitude in the current law," said Stewart Baker, a lawyer specializing in
telecommunications and Internet regulatory matters.

Privacy and security concerns
Robert Corn-Revere, of the Hogan  Hartson law firm here, represented an
unidentified Internet service provider in one of the few legal fights against
Carnivore. He said his client worried that the FBI would have access to all
the e-mail traffic on its system, raising dire privacy and security concerns.
A federal magistrate ruled against the company early this year, leaving it no
option but to allow the FBI access to its system.

"This is an area in desperate need of clarification from Congress," said
Corn-Revere.

"Once the software is applied to the ISP, there's no check on the system,"
said Rep. Bob Barr (R., Ga.), who sits on a House judiciary subcommittee for
constitutional affairs. "If there's one word I would use to describe this, it
would be 'frightening."'

Marcus Thomas, chief of the FBI's Cyber Technology Section at Quantico, said
Carnivore represents the bureau's effort to keep abreast of rapid changes in
Internet communications while still meeting the rigid demands of federal
wiretapping statutes. "This is just a very specialized sniffer," he said.

ABRAHAM ZAPRUDER: a CLOSER LOOK


Lo and Behold, will wonder ever cease ?
Any thoughts/facts pro or con are invited.

Amazing Web Of

Abraham Zapruder -
The Man Who Filmed
JFK's Death

From Gregory Burnham [EMAIL PROTECTED]
12-1-99


Consider the following:

Abraham Zapruder-White Russian affiliation, 32nd degree Mason,
active MEMBER of 2 CIA Proprietary Organizations: The Dallas
Council On World Affairs and The Crusade For A Free Europe;

These two organizations were CIA (backed) Domestic Operations in
Dallas whose membership included:

Abraham Zapruder, Clint Murchison, Mr. Byrd, (owner of the Texas
School Book Depository), Sarah Hughes, who swore LBJ in as the
36th President while Air Force One was still on the ground in
Dallas, George DeMohrenschildt, (CIA contract agent AND best
friend of LHO), George Bush (also close friend of George
DeMohrenschildt), Neil Mallon, (mentor that Bush named his son,
Neil, after), H.L. Hunt,  Demitri Von Mohrenschildt (George D's
brother).

In 1953 and 1954 a woman named, Jeanne LeGon worked SIDE by SIDE
with Abraham Zapruder at a high end clothing design firm called,
Nardis of Dallas. Jeanne LeGon designed the clothing and Abraham
Zapruder cut the patterns and the material for her.

Incidentally, Abraham Zapruder's obituary mis-states the
date/year that he departed Nardis of Dallas, incorrectly citing
1949. The correct year was 1959, [the same year that his "partner
in design" Jeanne LeGon became known as, Jean LeGon
DeMohrenschildt... She had married Lee Oswald's BEST FRIEND (to
be), CIA Contract Agent, George DeMohrenschildt!]

Lyndon Baines Johnson's personal secretary, Marie Fehmer, who
flew back to Washington on Air Force One with LBJ on 11-22-1963,
just happens to be the daughter of Olga Fehmer, currently living
in Tyler, Texas. Olga Fehmer ALSO worked at Nardis of Dallas with
Abraham Zapruder and Jean LeGon DeMohrenshildt.

==

QUICK REVIEW:

Olga Fehmer, the mother of LBJ's future personal secretary,
(Marie) worked closely with the man who would later capture the
assassination on film: Abraham Zapruder, in the same city of
Dallas.

George DeMohrenschildt's future wife Jeanne LeGon, also worked at
NARDIS of Dallas, the city in which LHO's best friend and rabid
anti-communist White Russian, George DeMohrenshildt - would
convince Lee Oswald and his White Russian wife, Marina, to
eventually reside.

The Oswald's spent time together in the Soviet Union during their
"courtship" -- much if not most of that time was spent in the
city of Minsk, which is where George DeMohrenshildt and his
brother, Demitri Von Mohrenschildt, grew up, after fleeing the
place of their birth, Mozyr, which was often mistakenly thought
to have been a part of Poland.

Abraham Zapruder's co-worker, Jeanne LeGon and her husband George
DeMohrenschildt introduced Lee Oswald to the daughter of one of
George DeMohrenshildt's close friends, Ruth Paine. Ruth Paine's
husband, Michael, whose step-father, Arthur Young collaborated
with none other than Lyndon Baines Johnson's personal pilot,
Joseph Mashman, to develop "BELL" helicopter, was employed by
Bell at the time of the assassination. 3,000-5,000 BELL
helicopters were lost in Viet Nam and BELL's stockholders made a
fortune replacing them.

In September of 1976, George DeMohrenschildt was subjected to 9
electro-shock treatments at Parkland Hospital under the order
given by one, Doctor DeLoach... first cousin of FBI Assisstant
Director Cartha D. "Deke" DeLoach. His "doctor of record", Dr.
Mendoza, ordered the administration of intravenous "drugs" upon
DeMohrenschildt's being committed to Parkland Hospital for,
"mental problems" - but, it was DeLoach that ordered the
Electro-Shock Therapy. This episode occured during the time that
George Bush was the Director of Central Intelligence and within
weeks of DeMohrenshildt's having written a manuscript for a book
entitled, "I Am A Patsy! I Am A Patsy!" which named names of
various CIA and FBI personnel who framed Oswald to cover their
tracks in the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

There is an "extant" version of this manuscript floating around
the net [which is possibly a creation of a good forgerer like E.
H. HUNT].

On March 29, 1977... the same day DeMohrenschildt agreed to an
interview with the HSCA, George DeMohrenschildt was found dead of
a shotgun blast through his mouth by his daughter, Alexandra. His
death was ruled a suicide.

In 1964, a CIA report states that: "[she] was being monitored by
CIA's James Jesus Angleton because she was having an affair with
Mohammed al Fayed shortly after the JFK assassination..." James
Jesus Angleton's name is signed at the bottom of that 41 page
report. Under his signature is that of CIA asset, Jane Roman.
Roman was the CIA agent who the record shows was charged with
"monitoring" the movements of one, Lee Harvey Oswald, for the two
months preceding the assassination.

CHAPTER I

THE ORDER OF ROSICRUCIANS AND THE ROSICRUCIAN FELLOWSHIP
OUR MESSAGE AND MISSION

A SANE MIND
A SOFT HEART
A SOUND BODY




--
--

  Before entering upon an explanation of the teachings of the Rosicrucians,
it may be well to say a word about them and about the place they hold in the
evolution of humanity.

   For reasons to be given later these teachings advocate the dualistic view;
they hold that man is a Spirit enfolding all the powers of God as the seed
enfolds the plant, and that these powers are being slowly unfolded by a
series of existences in a gradually improving earthy body; also that this
process of development has been performed under the guidance of exalted
Beings who are yet ordering our steps, though in a decreasing measure, as we
gradually acquire intellect and will. These exalted Beings, though unseen to
the physical eyes, are nevertheless potent factors in all affairs of life,
and give to the various groups of humanity lessons which will most
efficiently promote the growth of their spiritual powers. In fact, the earth
may be likened to a vast training school in which there are pupils of varying
age and ability as we find it in one of our own schools. There are the
savages, living and worshipping under most primitive conditions, seeing in
stick or stone a God. Then, as man progresses onwards and upwards in the
scale of civilization, we find a higher and higher conception of Deity, which
has flowered here in our Western World in the beautiful Christian religion
that now furnishes our spiritual inspiration and incentive to improve.

   These various religions have been given to each group of humanity by the
exalted beings whom we know in the Christian religion as the Recording
Angels, whose wonderful prevision enables them to view the trend of even so
unstable a quantity as the human mind, and thus they are enabled to determine
what steps are necessary to lead our unfoldment along the lines congruous to
the highest universal good.

   When we study the history of the ancient nations we shall find that at
about six hundred years B.C. a great spiritual wave had its inception on the
Eastern shores of the Pacific Ocean where the great Confucian religion
accelerated the progress of the Chinese nation, then also the religion of the
Buddha commenced to win its millions of adherents in India, and still further
West we have the lofty philosophy of Pythagoras. Each system was suited to
the needs of the particular people to whom it was sent. Then came the period
of the Skeptics, in Greece, and later, traveling westward the same spiritual
wave is manifested as the Christian religion of the so-called "Dark Ages"
when the dogma of a dominant church compelled belief from the whole of
Western Europe.

   It is a law in the universe that a wave of spiritual awakening is always
followed by a period of doubting materialism; each phase is necessary in
order that the Spirit may receive equal development of heart and intellect
without being carried too far in either direction. The great Beings
aforementioned, who care for our progress, always take steps to safeguard
humanity against that danger, and when they foresaw the wave of materialism
which commenced in the sixteenth century with the birth of our modern
science, they took steps to protect the West as they had formerly safeguarded
the East against the skeptics who were held in check by the Mystery Schools.

   In the fourteenth century there appeared in central Europe a great
spiritual teacher whose symbolical name was



CHRISTIAN ROSENKREUZ

or

CHRISTIAN ROSE CROSS,
  who founded the mysterious Order of the Rosy Cross, concerning which so
many speculations have been made and so little has become known to the world
at large, for it is the Mystery School of the West and is open only to those
who have attained the stage of spiritual unfoldment necessary to be initiated
in its secrets concerning the Science of Life and Being.

   If we are so far developed that we are able to leave our dense physical
body and take a soul flight into interplanetary space we shall find that the
ultimate physical atom is spherical in shape like our earth; it is a ball.
When we take a number of balls of even size and group them around one, it
will take just twelve balls to hide a thirteenth within. Thus the twelve
visible and the one hidden are numbers revealing a cosmic relationship and as
all Mystery Orders are based upon cosmic lines, they are composed of twelve
members gathered around a thirteenth who is the invisible HEAD.

   There are seven colors in the spectrum: red, orange, yellow, green, blue,
indigo, and violet. But between the violet and the red there are still five
other colors which are invisible to the physical eye but reveal themselves to
the spiritual sight. In every Mystery Order there are also seven Brothers who
at times go out into the world and there perform whatever

CHAPTER II

THE PROBLEM OF LIFE AND ITS SOLUTION
THE PROBLEM OF LIFE
  Among all the vicissitudes of life, which vary in each individual's
experience, there is one event which sooner or later comes to
everyone--Death! No matter what our station in life, whether the life lived
has been a laudable one or the reverse, whether great achievements have
marked our path among men; whether health or sickness has been our lot,
whether we have been famous and surrounded by a host of admiring friends or
have wandered unknown through the years of our life, at some time there comes
a moment when we stand alone before the portal of death and are forced to
take the leap into the dark.

   The thought of this leap and of what lies beyond must inevitably force
itself upon every thinking person. In the years of youth and health, when the
bark of our life sails upon seas of prosperity, when all appears beautiful
and bright, we may put the thought behind us, but there will surely come a
time in the life of every thinking person when the problem of life and death
forces itself upon his consciousness and refuses to be set aside. Neither
will it help him to accept the ready-made solution of anyone else without
thought and in blind belief, for this is a basic problem which every one must
solve for himself or herself in order to obtain satisfaction.

   Upon the eastern edge of the Desert of Sahara there stands the
world-famous Sphinx with its inscrutable face turned toward the East, ever
greeting the Sun as its rising rays herald the newborn day. It was said in
the Greek myth that it was the wont of this monster to ask a riddle of each
traveler. She devoured those who could not answer, but when Oedipus solved
the riddle she destroyed herself.

   The riddle which she asked of men was the riddle of life and death, a
query which is as relevant today as ever, and which each one must answer or
be devoured in the jaws of death. But when once a person has found the
solution to the problem, it will appear that in reality there is no death,
that what appears so, is but a change from one state of EXISTENCE to another.
Thus, for the man who finds the true solution to the riddle of life, the
sphinx of death has ceased to exist, and he can lift his voice in the
triumphant cry, "O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?"

   Various theories of life have been advocated to solve this problem of
life. We may divide them into two classes, namely THE MONISTIC THEORY, which
holds that all the facts of life can be explained by reference to this
visible world wherein we live, and THE DUALISTIC THEORY, which refers part of
the phenomenon of life to another world which is now invisible to us.

   Raphael in his famous painting, "The School of Athens," has most aptly
pictured to us the attitude of these two schools of thought. We see upon that
marvelous painting a Greek Court such as those wherein philosophers were once
wont to congregate. Upon the various steps which lead into the building a
large number of men are engaged in deep conversation, but in the center at
the top of the steps stand two figures, supposedly of Plato and Aristotle,
one pointing upwards, the other towards the earth, each looking the other in
the face, mutely, but with deeply concentrated will; each seeking to convince
the other that his attitude is right, for each bears the conviction in his
heart. One holds that he is of the earth earthy, that he has come from the
dust and that thereto he will return, the other firmly advocates the position
that there is a higher something which has always existed and will continue
regardless of whether the body wherein it now dwells holds together or not.

   The question who is right is still an open one with the majority of
mankind. Millions of tons of paper and printer's ink have been used in futile
attempts to settle it by argument, but it will always remain open to all who
have not solved the riddle themselves, for it is a basic problem, a part of
the life experience of every human being to settle that question, and
therefore no one can give us the solution ready-made for our acceptance. All
that can be done by those who have really solved the problem, is to show to
others the line along which they have found the solution, and thus direct the
inquirer how he also, by his own efforts, may arrive at a conclusion.

   That is the aim of this little book; not to offer a solution to the
problem of life to be taken blindly, on faith in the author's ability of
investigation. The teachings herein set forth are those handed down by the
Great Western Mystery School of the Rosicrucian Order and are the result of
the concurrent testimony of a long line of trained Seers given to the author
and supplemented by his own independent investigation of the realms traversed
by the Spirit in its cyclic path from the invisible world to this plane of
existence and back again.

CHAPTER III

THE VISIBLE AND THE INVISIBLE WORLDS
THE CHEMICAL REGION
  If one who is capable of consciously using his spiritual body with the same
facility that we now use our physical vehicles should glide away from the
Earth into interplanetary space, the Earth and the various other planets of
our solar system would appear to him or her to be composed of three kinds of
matter, roughly speaking. The densest matter, which is our visible Earth,
would appear to him as being the center of the ball as the yolk is in the
center of an egg. Around that nucleus he or she would observe a finer grade
of matter similarly disposed in relation to the central mass, as the white of
the egg is disposed outside the yolk. Upon a little closer investigation he
would also discover that this second kind of substance permeates the solid
Earth to the very center, even as the blood percolates through the more solid
parts of our flesh. Outside both of these mingling layers of matter he would
observe a still finer, third layer corresponding to the shell of the egg,
except that this third layer is the finest, most subtle of the three grades
of matter, and that it interpenetrates both of the two inner layers.

   As already said, the central mass, spiritually seen, is our visible world,
composed of solids, liquids, and gases. They constitute the Earth, its
atmosphere, and also the ether, of which physical science speaks
hypothetically as permeating the atomic substance of all chemical elements.
The second layer of matter is called the Desire World and the outermost layer
is called the World of Thought.

   A little reflection upon the subject will make clear that just such a
constitution is necessary to account for facts of life as we see them. All
forms in the world about us are built from chemical substances: solids,
liquids, and gases, but insofar that they do move, these forms obey a
separate and distinct impulse, and when this impelling energy leaves, the
form becomes inert. The steam engine rotates under the impetus of an
invisible gas called steam. Before steam filled its cylinder, the engine
stood still, and when the impelling force is shut off its motion again
ceases. The dynamo rotates under the still more subtle influence of an
electric current which may also cause the click of a telegraph instrument or
the ring of an electric bell, but the dynamo ceases its swift whirl and the
persistent ring of the electric bell becomes mute when the invisible
electricity is switched off. The forms of the bird, the animal, and the human
being also cease their motion when the inner force which we call LIFE has
winged its invisible way.

   All forms are impelled into motion by desire: the bird and the animal roam
land and air in their desire to secure food and shelter, or for the purpose
of breeding. Man is also moved by these desires, but has in addition other
and higher incentives to spur him to effort; among them is desire for
rapidity of motion which led him to construct the steam engine and other
devices that move in obedience to HIS desire.

   If there were no iron in the mountains man could not build machines. If
there were no clay in the soil, the bony structure of the skeleton would be
an impossibility, and if there were no Physical World at all, with its
solids, liquids, and gases, this dense body of ours could never have come
into existence. Reasoning along similar lines it must be at once apparent
that if there were no Desire World composed of desire-stuff, we should have
no way of forming feelings, emotions, and desires. A planet composed of the
materials we perceive with our PHYSICAL eyes and of no other substances,
might be the home of plants which grow unconsciously, but have no desires to
cause them to move. The human and animal kingdoms, however, would be
impossibilities.

   Furthermore, there is in the world a vast number of things, from the
simplest and most crude instruments, to the most intricate and cunning
devices which have been constructed by the hand of man. These reveal the fact
of man's thought and ingenuity. Thought must have a source as well as FORM
and FEELING. We saw that it was necessary to have the requisite material in
order to build a steam engine or a body and we reasoned from the fact that in
order to obtain material to express desire there must also be a world
composed of desire stuff. Carrying our argument to its logical conclusion, we
also hold that unless a World of Thought provides a reservoir of mind stuff
upon which we may draw, it would be impossible for us to think and invent the
things which we see in even the lowest civilization.

   Thus it will be clear that the division of a planet into worlds is not
based on fanciful metaphysical speculation, but is logically necessary in the
economy of nature. Therefore it must be taken into consideration by any one
who would study and aim to understand the inner nature of things. When we see
the street cars moving along our streets, it does not

THE DESIRE WORLD
   When spiritual sight is developed so that it becomes possible to behold
the Desire World, many wonders confront the newcomer, for conditions there
are so widely different from what they are here that a description must sound
quite as incredible as a fairy tale to anyone who has not himself seen them.

   Many cannot believe that such a world exists, and that other people can
see that which is invisible to them, yet some people are blind to the
beauties of this world which we see. A man who was born blind, may say to us:
"I know that this world exists. I can hear, I can smell, I can taste, and
above all I can feel, but when you speak of light and of color, they are
non-existent to me. You say that you SEE these things. I cannot believe it
for I cannot SEE myself. You say that light and color are all about me, but
none of the senses at my command reveal them to me and I do not believe that
the sense you call sight exists. I think you suffer from hallucinations." We
might sympathize very sincerely with the poor man who is thus afflicted, but
his skepticisms, reasonings, objections, and sneers notwithstanding, we would
be obliged to maintain that we perceive light and color.

   The man or woman whose spiritual sight has been awakened is in a similar
position with respect to those who do not perceive the Desire World of which
he speaks. If the blind man acquires the faculty of sight by an operation,
his eyes are opened and he will be compelled to assert the existence of light
and color which he formerly denied, and when spiritual sight is acquired by
anyone, he also perceives for himself the facts related by others. Neither is
it an argument against the existence of spiritual realms that seers are at
variance in their descriptions of conditions in the invisible world. We need
but to look into books on travel and compare stories brought home by
explorers of China, India, or Africa; we shall find them differing widely and
often contradictory, because each traveler saw things from his own
standpoint, under other conditions than those met by his brother authors. We
maintain that the man who has read most widely these varying tales concerning
a certain country AND WRESTLED WITH THE CONTRADICTIONS OF NARRATORS, will
have a more comprehensive idea of the country or people of whom he has read,
than the man who has read only one story assented to by all the authors.
Similarly, the varying stories of visitors to the Desire World are of value,
because giving a fuller view, and more rounded, than if all had seen things
from the same angle.

   In this world matter and force are widely different. The chief
characteristic of matter here is INERTIA: the tendency to remain at rest
until acted upon by a force which sets it in motion. In the Desire World, on
the contrary, force and matter are almost indistinguishable one from the
other. We might almost describe desire-stuff as force-matter, for it is in
incessant motion, responsive to the slightest FEELING of a vast multitude of
beings which populate this wonderful world in nature. We often speak of the
"teeming millions" of China and India, even of our vast cities, London, New
York, Paris, or Chicago; we consider them overcrowded in the extreme, yet
even the densest population of any spot on Earth is sparsely inhabited
compared with the crowded conditions of the Desire World. No inconvenience is
felt by any of the denizens of that realm, however, for, while in this world
two things cannot occupy the same space at the same time, it is different
there. A number of people and things may exist IN THE SAME PLACE AT THE SAME
TIME and be engaged in most diverse activities, regardless of what others are
doing, such is the wonderful elasticity of desire-stuff. As an illustration
we may mention a case where the writer, while attending a religious service,
plainly perceived at the altar certain beings interested in furthering that
service and working to achieve that end. At the same time there drifted
through the room and the altar, a table at which four persons were engaged in
playing cards. They were as oblivious to the existence of the beings engaged
in furthering our religious service, as though these did not exist.

   The Desire World is the abode of those who have died, for some time
subsequent to that event, and we may mention in the above connection that the
so-called "dead" very often stay for a long while among their still living
friends. Unseen by their relatives they go about the familiar rooms. At first
they are often unaware of the condition mentioned: THAT TWO PERSONS MAY BE IN
THE SAME PLACE AT THE SAME TIME, and when they seat themselves in a chair or
at the table, a living relative may take the supposedly vacant seat. The man
we mistakenly call dead will at first hurry out of his seat to escape being
sat upon, but he soon learns that being sat upon does not hurt him in his
altered condition, and that he may remain in his chair regardless of the

I've had a look at the info posted on the Web.

I've never had any doubt that JFKjr flew beyond his capabilities
and so caused his own death, so I'm not surprised by the NTSB
conclusion.

But reading all (or a lot) of their material leads me to believe
that they sugar-coated some of the information so that JFKjr
wouldn't appear to have been a complete a$$#01e.

The following is taken directly from the report with my comments
in brackets.


PILOT INFORMATION

The pilot obtained his private pilot certificate for "airplane
single-engine land" in April 1998. He did not possess an
instrument rating. He received a "high performance airplane"
sign-off in his Cessna 182 in June 1998 and a "complex airplane"
sign-off in the accident airplane in May 1999. His most recent
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) second-class medical
certificate was issued on December 27, 1997, with no limitations.

["He received ... a 'complex airplane' sign-off in the accident
airplane in May 1999."  This means he had virtually NO
PILOT-IN-COMMAND TIME IN THIS PLANE.  The accident occurred on
July 20.  He broke his ankle in a hang gliding accident on June
1.]

A copy of the pilot's logbook that covered from October 4, 1982,
to November 11, 1998, was provided to the Safety Board. The
pilot's most recent logbook was not located.

[What they're saying here is that they really don't know much
about his actual experience.  Most of this is a guess.  There was
no flying between 9/88 and 12/97 so the logbook they have really
only covers one year. Given the fact that he had only one solo
hour - inferred from info below - prior to abandoning flying in
1988, those hours before 12/97 probably weren't of much value to
him.}

 The Board used the copied logbook, records
from training facilities, copies of flight instructors' logbooks,
and statements from instructors and pilots to estimate the
pilot's total flight experience. The pilot's estimated total
flight experience, excluding simulator training, was about 310
hours, of which 55 hours were at night. The pilot's estimated
experience flying without a certified flight instructor (CFI) on
board was about 72 hours.

[I think it pretty unusual to have only 72 hours PIC at 250
hours.]

 The pilot's estimated flight time in the accident airplane was
about 36 hours, of which 9.4 hours were at night. Approximately 3
hours of that flight time was without a CFI on board, and about
0.8 hour of that time was flown at night, which included a night
landing.

[I'm not sure why the "estimated flight time" is as high as it is
given that they guess that he only had three hours PIC.  I wonder
if they counted the last 1.5 hours as part of the three.  Three
hours is about what he would log for a routine round trip between
CDW and MVY, but it's hard for me to believe that his first PIC
time wasn't local.]


In the 15 months before the accident, the pilot had flown about
35 flight legs either to or from the Essex County/Teterboro, New
Jersey, area and the Martha's Vineyard/Hyannis, Massachusetts,
area. The pilot flew over 17 of these legs without a CFI on
board, including at least 5 at night. The pilot's last known
flight in the accident airplane without a CFI on board was on May
28, 1999.

[Last, or only?  This is almost two months before the accident.]

Pilot Training

On October 4, 1982, the pilot started receiving flight
instruction. Over the next 6 years, he flew with six different
CFIs. During this period, the pilot logged 47 hours, consisting
of 46 hours of dual instruction and 1 hour without a CFI on
board. The pilot made no entries in his logbook from September
1988 to December 1997.

[This is the "abandoned flying" that I made reference to above.]

In December 1997, the pilot enrolled in a training program at
Flight Safety International (FSI), Vero Beach, Florida, to obtain
his private pilot certificate. Between December 1997 and April
1998, the pilot flew about 53 hours, of which 43 were flown with
a CFI on board. The CFI who prepared the pilot for his private
pilot checkride stated that the pilot had "very good" flying
skills for his level of experience.

[They're sort of implying a period of continuous training here.
I wonder. Did JFKjr really spend four months in Vero Beach, or
two weeks?  I thought when I got my "Private" that the
requirement was for 20 solo hours, so JFKjr's 10 or 11 strikes me
as odd.  The instructor's statement is not very encouraging.
What is he going to say, "I signed him off because he was a
Kennedy."?]

On April 22, 1998, the pilot passed his private pilot flight
test. The designated pilot examiner who administered the
checkride stated that as part of the flight test, the pilot
conducted two unusual attitude recoveries. The pilot examiner
stated that in both cases, the pilot recovered the airplane while
wearing a hood and referencing the airplane's

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
By Bobbie Sandoz, MSW, Author, Listening to Wild Dolphins
www.bobbiesandoz.com

Dr. Darlene Ketten's ear exams on stranded whales bleeding from
their eyes have provided the link between whale strandings and
Navy sonar tests, long suspected by environmentalists and
non-government scientists.

In view of persistent government failure to provide autopsies
that would reveal whether or not stranded mammals had suffered
the tissue, lung, and ear explosion symptoms predicted by the
Marine Mammal Commission to be the result of sonar exposure,
these tests were facilitated by an interesting source.

The whales, who often swim great distances in order to strand
before us on our shores and reveal their struggle beneath the
sea, came this time to a beach fronting the home of Dr. Ken
Balcomb, a caring marine biologist who made sure they received
timely and appropriate autopsies.

Now that the suspected link has been firmly established, it
offers new clues to the "mysterious" deaths of other cetaceans
and marine mammals with similar symptoms stranding by the
thousands all over the world. As a result, continued efforts to
ignore and deny such serious problems with this risky technology
will no longer slip by the American public and press with the
same ease previously enjoyed.

Non government scientists and environmentalists have been trying
to warn of the immense and lethal force of these new sonar
devices being secretly tried throughout the world in preparation
for full deployment in 80% of our oceans. Government studies on
their results have been secret, swift, and shoddy and have
provided more evidence for dire concerns than the assurances of
safety they had hoped to produce.

Now, the key is for the American public to sleep with one eye
open until all pressure to press forward has stopped. Clearly let
your congressional representatives know that you want this new
brand of sonar out of the water in order to keep our oceans safe
and preserve life on earth as we know it.

If we unite in both action and prayer to preserve our beautiful
blue oceans and the wonderous marine life within them, we will
become a better humanity who can look our own souls in the eye.

[CTRL] Slick Willey...Kathleen Willey That Is...

2000-07-12 Thread William Shannon

A new woman?

New bankruptcy documents make the murky finances of Ken Starr's key witness
look even shadier.


- - - - - - - - - - - -
By Bruce Shapiro

July 12, 2000 |

Federal bankruptcy court, stage for the quotidian tragedies of personal debt
and commerce, is the last place anyone would expect to turn for a
head-spinning legal yarn, and even less for the verdict on a national
political scandal. But sometime in the next few weeks, a Richmond, Va.,
bankruptcy court will be the stage for both, when Judge Douglas O. Tice Jr.
calls the case of Kathleen Schwicker.

Kathleen who? Until her recent remarriage, Kathleen Schwicker was Kathleen
Willey. Almost two years ago, Willey went on "60 Minutes" to accuse President
Clinton of unwanted sexual advances in the Oval Office, followed up by dark,
never-confirmed tales of threats and intimidation by presidential operatives.
Willey has remarried, changed her name and relocated to Ramrod Key, Fla. Now
her bankruptcy appears to be one more effort at a new start, at leaving
behind an overwrought period of life beginning with her husband Ed Willey's
1993 suicide and culminating in her 1998 grand jury testimony for Independent
Counsel Kenneth Starr.

But coming the same week that former Starr spokesman Charles Bakaly faces
contempt-of-court charges, Willey's bankruptcy case raises more questions
about the probity of Starr's investigation. The facts revealed in Willey's
bankruptcy filing and other documents obtained by Salon also raise questions
about her past and character, and Starr's decision to grant her sweeping
immunity as a central strategy in his inquiry.

Willey claims she is virtually destitute. Her bankruptcy petition, filed in
April, declares she has just $50 in her checking account, $2,000 worth of
jewelry and $3,700 worth of household furniture. Her Subaru Outback, worth
$13,000, has been claimed by her lawyers as collateral for unpaid bills.

In fact, Willey is far from destitute. She has been living in comfort in a
suburban home, on a budget of thousands of dollars a month. Court records and
other documents obtained by Salon suggest that in 1997 and 1998, at the very
time she was going public with her accusations of genital groping by
President Clinton several years before, Willey was at the center of a
complicated series of asset transfers that appear to have been designed to
insulate her money and property from the scrutiny of courts and creditors --
and claiming under oath in Virginia that she could not remember basic
personal matters from just weeks earlier.

It is a noteworthy tale of legal intrigue: In declaring bankruptcy, Willey
claimed personal debts of over $700,000. But financial records suggest that
at least two-thirds of that "debt" consists of Willey's own assets, shifted
on paper to her children while she has continued to reap the benefits. At the
heart of this complicated financial maneuver, records suggest, is the
manipulation of a $160,000 loan to create the appearance of a debt.

The road to Tuesday's bankruptcy hearing goes back to 1991 -- long before
Kathleen Willey emerged as a White House volunteer with a tale to tell. It
begins not with a presidential grope but with financial transactions by her
now-deceased husband, Ed Willey Jr.

To understand Willey's predicament, it helps to understand her husband. Ed
Willey Jr. was a Richmond attorney and investor in local real estate deals.
He was the son of the speaker of Virginia's Assembly -- and so in theory,
born to the state's political aristocracy. In fact he was the Willey clan's
black sheep. Sometime around 1970 -- according to Kathleen Willey's own
account in her application for a volunteer position at the White House -- Ed
Jr. was charged with manslaughter in an auto accident, though the charges
were later dropped. His taste for fast money further alienated Willey from
his father.

When Ed Jr. married Kathy in 1971, their joint dedication to ostentation --
the condo in Vail, the Rolex watches and jewelry -- did nothing to dispel
that reputation, though many in Richmond still find it convenient to blame
outsider Kathy for driving her husband's greed quotient into the
stratosphere. Whatever the truth, by the early 1990s Ed Willey Jr. was
beginning a long slide into debt, ultimately owing the IRS alone $325,000.

In August 1991, Ed Willey turned to a longtime friend for help: Richmond
developer, architect and political activist Louis Salomonsky. Salomonsky was
Gov. Douglas Wilder's personal financial trustee and a successful player in
local real estate projects that sometimes ended in scandal and indictments;
though Salomonsky was named in at least one indictment, he was never charged
himself.

Salomonsky agreed to lend the Willeys $160,000, according to court
transcripts and Willey financial records obtained by Salon. The Willeys
secured the loan with collateral: their suburban home worth over $200,000,
part of a real estate partnership and their life insurance policy of over $1

The following are snippets from that story:

"A Shotgun News columnist found himself put in the smut merchant

antique collectable firearms.  He holds a Federal Firearms

"That is, he thought he did until America Online (AOL) summarily
removed his web site from their system and sent email to his

"AOL wrote, 'We have become aware of a web page site that is part

"'I've heard from other dealers who got the same form letter and

The article goes on to say that CompuServe (another AOL company),
as well as other IPs, are doing the same.

"Oh, my countrymen! What will our children say, when they read the history
of these times? Should they find we tamely gave away without one noble
struggle, the most invaluable of earthly blessings? As they drag the galling

any regard to the dearest treasures on earth; if we have one tender

Priest arrested on sex charge
Catholic official runs Jubilee 2000
BY ELAINE DE VALLE
[EMAIL PROTECTED]


A Catholic priest who served as president of St. Thomas University from 1979
to 1988 has been arrested in a Miami Police prostitution sting.

The Rev. Patrick H. O'Neill, executive director of the Archdiocese of
Miami's
Jubilee 2000 program, was charged with offering to commit prostitution last
week after a short conversation with an officer from his car at Biscayne
Boulevard and 19th Street.

O'Neill's lawyer, William Dean, issued a statement about the misdemeanor
arrest:

``Father O'Neill is confident that once all of the facts and circumstances
surrounding this incident are fully revealed, his name will be cleared and
he
will return to serving the community and continue on with his life's work.''

Miami Police said Officer Albert Guerra, 27, was working a plainclothes
sting
operation Wednesday, July 5, when O'Neill, 60, allegedly drove up about
11:10
a.m. and lowered the passenger side window of his burgundy Mercedes 300E
sedan.

In the arrest affidavit, Guerra said O'Neill began a conversation.

``He then offered me $100 to hold my penis and be affectionate with me until
he ejaculated. I then gave the take-down signal [and the] defendant was
arrested,'' the officer wrote.

Miami Police spokesman Jorge Pino said the priest, who lives at 8901 Dickens
Ave. in Surfside, was not booked. He was released after he signed a form
promising to appear in court.

O'Neill did not return two phone calls made to his home, but archdiocese
spokeswoman Mary Ross Agosta said he was out of town on a previously
scheduled trip.

``He's a man that travels a lot, and July is the vacation month for a lot of
our priests,'' Ross Agosta said.

``The archdiocese is aware that Father Patrick O'Neill was arrested on a
misdemeanor charge. Father O'Neill has cooperated with authorities, and we
are optimistic there will be a quick and just resolution to this incident.''

Ross Agosta also said the archdiocese does not have a policy for priests who
have been criminally charged.

``We don't suspend the priest,'' she said. ``We may ask him to take some
time
off.''

The high-ranking cleric heads the Archdiocese of Miami's campaign to bring
more of South Florida's 1.3 million Catholics ``home'' to the church. About
800,000 are registered at the 111 churches in Miami-Dade, Broward and Monroe
counties.

Jubilee is the archdiocese's most-ambitious evangelization effort since Pope
John Paul II's 1987 visit.

Before taking on the Jubilee campaign, O'Neill had been in the limelight
before.

O'Neill helped organize the pilgrimage of South Florida Catholics for the
Pope's visit to Cuba in 1998.

In 1993 and 1994 he oversaw a committee of about 20 priests, nuns and lay
people forming a plan to help the Catholic Church of Cuba.

He has also served as president of the South Florida Center for Theological
Studies since 1994, president of the National Conference of Christians and
Jews (now called the National Conference for Community and Justice), and
president of the West Palm Beach-based New Hope Charities Foundation, of
which he is also listed as a founder.

O'Neill delivered a sermon at the memorial service for Gianni Versace, a gay
fashion designer murdered on the steps of his South Beach home in 1997.

After singing from the Madonna song You Must Love Me, the priest talked
about
Versace as a family man.

``He changed everything around him,'' said O'Neill, who pointed out the joy
in Versace's life and work as his hallmark despite the Catholic Church's
stance against homosexuality.

The priest is the latest high-profile person to be caught in a prostitution
sting on Biscayne Boulevard in recent undercover operations.

Norman Lindeblad, executive director of Miami-Dade Schools' Office of
Professional Standards, was reassigned after he was charged June 24 with
soliciting a prostitute.

The same night, Miami Police Maj. Juan García -- a onetime finalist for
police chief who used to supervise prostitution stings -- was

Media's label gun fires blanks at President Clinton

© 2000 WorldNetDaily.com

WASHINGTON -- "When the 'Monica situation' broke in January 1998,
it touched off one of the most incredible series of leaks, lying,
stonewalling and obfuscation I've ever seen."

No, Cal Thomas didn't say that.  It was Helen Thomas, dean of the
White House press corps, in a rare fit of candor about a
Democratic president.

It's quite a damning statement, too, particularly in the context
of just one scandal.  Thomas has covered every president since
JFK, including Nixon, so she's seen a fair piece of lying and
stonewalling.

But she buried the complaint in her latest book. Like others in
the press corps, she never put it to President Clinton directly.
Republican presidents weren't so lucky.

"Reporters at every turn accused Reagan of duplicity, challenged
his credibility and shattered his composure," writes Thomas,
celebrating the feverish Iran-Contra coverage.

The press corps even took the liberty of bundling that scandal
with minor ones and associating Reagan with what it called an
overall "sleaze factor."

Nixon also wasn't spared.  His administration was written off as
"crooked." He was branded "Tricky Dick."

Yet Clinton is still just "Mr.  President."

The national press, usually so good at calling things by their
proper names -- cruelly so at times - has yet to coin any
nickname for Clinton. (Paul Greenberg, the Arkansas
Democrat-Gazette's editorial editor, came up with "Slick Willie."
But no big East Coast newsroom has rubber-stamped its use.)

After eight years of rank corruption, reporters in this town are
by and large still reserving judgment on Clinton.  Maybe it's
because they'd be judging themselves, too.

Most have a personal, not just political, stake in Clinton.  A
whopping 89 percent of Washington reporters and 60 percent of
bureau chiefs voted for him in 1992 -- compared with just 43
percent of the electorate.

Surveys going back to the '60s show the press has always voted to
the left of the public.  But the Clinton disconnect (a gap of 46
percentage points) is the greatest of all, which makes me think
the attraction is more than ideological.

Maybe it's because most editors today are baby boomers and, like
Clinton, smoked pot and loathed the military.  Maybe it's because
he's a reflection of their own morals.  Or maybe they just like
his cool hair.

Whatever, the national press remains intoxicated by Clinton and
can't seem to summon the spit to call him for what he is -- the
most corrupt president in American history, and quantifiably so.

That phrase, "the most corrupt president," has been bandied about
so often in Republican circles that it's become a cliche.  And
that's allowed the press corps to dismiss it as hyperbole.

It's not, and I'll prove it for any of the White House court
jesters willing to stop batting their eyelashes at His Nibs for
five minutes. The Clinton administration has the dubious honor of
breaking the record for the most number of:

*Convictions and guilty pleas

*Cabinet officials under criminal investigation

*Independent counsels named (Attorney General Janet Reno has had
to tap more than all other attorney generals combined)

*White House lawyers Claims of executive privilege

*Presidential legal bills

*Witnesses who fled the country or took the Fifth

*Key witnesses who died unexpectedly

*Illegal foreign donations accepted

Now let's zero in on Clinton.  No other elected, sitting
president has ever been:

*Impeached

*Recommended for disbarment

*Guilty of violating The Privacy Act

*Held in contempt of court and fined for giving false and misleading
answers under oath

*Sued for sexual harassment

*Forced to settle a sexual-harassment lawsuit

*Accused of rape

*In business and/or good pals with more convicted felons

Now after 39-plus scandals (the White House counsel's office's
own internal count) and seven special outside investigations,
you'd think Clinton's crookedness would be bumper-sticker obvious
to even his sappiest apologist (Dan Rather) and shrillest shill
(Eleanor Clift).

Fat chance.

Just witness the last press conference.  Clinton called the
scandals "bogus" and reporters sat there with their faces
flapping.  Gee, what beautiful silk you're wearing today,
Emperor.

"The word 'scandal' has been thrown around here like a clanging
teapot for seven years," Clinton huffed.  "And I keep waiting for
somebody to say -- I noticed there was one columnist in the
Washington Post that had the uncommon decency to say, will no one
ever stand up here and say that a whole bunch of this stuff was
just garbage and that we had totally innocent people prosecuted
because they wouldn't lie (about me and my wife)?"

Clanging scandals

Yeah, and I'm still waiting for somebody among the media elite to
stand up and call all your clanging scandals by their proper
name: Corruption.  And you by yours: crook.

By holding back and affording this president an unusually high
degree of respect, 

[CTRL] NYP: INSIDE CLINTONS' WEIRD MARRIAGE

2000-07-12 Thread MICHAEL SPITZER

PAGE SIX

By RICHARD JOHNSON with Paula Froelich and Chris Wilson

INSIDE CLINTONS' WEIRD MARRIAGE

A NEW book is set to lift the lid off some of the weirder secrets
of Bill and Hillary Clinton's ever-complicated marriage.

Among the claims made by biographer Jerry Oppenheimer in "State
of a Union: Inside the Complex Marriage of Bill and Hillary
Clinton" are:

* "Willard," the pet name for the presidential penis bestowed by
former Clinton paramour Gennifer Flowers, was an inside joke
referring to Hillary's late uncle Willard, a roly-poly loner who
died while sitting on his toilet in 1965.

* Bill nearly left Hillary during his first congressional race in
Arkansas for a sexy campaign worker, but stayed with Hillary
because he believed her superior political savvy would help him
attain his ultimate goal of becoming president.

* Despite present-day rumors of an icy romantic relationship,
Bill and Hillary were infamous around the Yale campus for having
a "hot sexual relationship."

Oppenheimer told PAGE SIX he interviewed scores of friends,
relatives and associates of the Clintons to unearth tidbits such
as the origin of "Willard" (also the name of the talking
presidential penis in Joe Eszterhas' talked-about tome "American
Rhapsody.")

Oppenheimer writes that the real Willard keeled over after
suffering a heart attack. But Hillary's brother Tony Rodham told
the author he thinks his uncle, a tubby bachelor who lived with
his parents, "died of loneliness" at 57 after his father passed
away.

Oppenheimer also interviewed the woman he says nearly broke up
Bill and Hillary just before they were married. "After 25 years
of hiding from the media, she finally came out and talked on the
record," he said.

"She told me how she viewed Bill and Hillary's relationship as
more of a political alliance than a romantic love affair. Bill's
mother Virginia Kelly was really very fond of this woman and
really despised Hillary," Oppenheimer says of Hillary's rival,
whose name will be revealed in the book that's due in stores on
July 18.

"Hillary was like an alien creature to Virginia. But this other
woman was the epitome of the Arkansas woman. She wore sexy
clothes and was very bright and insightful.

"But eventually Hillary was able to convince Bill that she was
the better political partner. They had forged a pact even before
they were married that their ultimate goal was the White House."

[CTRL] WT: 'No underlying offense'

2000-07-12 Thread MICHAEL SPITZER

Washington Times-EDITORIAL • July 12, 2000

'No underlying offense'


 If, as the Justice Department charges in its oddball
contempt-of-court case against Charles G. Bakaly III, the former
spokesman for Independent Counsel Kenneth W. Starr did confirm to
a New York Times reporter that President Clinton might face
indictment by the independent counsel, it's hard to summon the
requisite outrage to clamor for putting the man behind bars.
After all, any independent counsel worth his independence might
indict a target of his investigation. No one needs Deep Throat to
figure that out.

 Nonetheless, when the article first appeared in January,
1999, during Mr. Clinton's impeachment trial in the Senate, the
White House feigned the appearance of being shocked, shocked,
prompting U.S. District Judge Norma Holloway Johnson to initiate
an investigation into whether Mr. Starr or his staff had violated
grand jury secrecy rules.

 This was not the first time Judge Johnson, who oversees the
grand jury, had opened a leaks inquiry. Nor was it the first time
the judge would be overruled on the matter.

 Recall that beginning in February 1998, David Kendall, Mr.
Clinton's personal lawyer, opened a daring new front in the
public relations war by charging that the Office of Independent
Counsel (OIC) was leaking confidential grand jury information. An
appeals court ultimately judged the charges groundless, but they
certainly impressed U.S. District Judge Norma Holloway Johnson,
who has consistently ruled against the OIC on Mr. Kendall's leak
charges. Her rulings have not exactly stood the test of time. At
last count, Judge Johnson had been reined in on three separate
occasions by a federal appeals court for her rather extravagant,
even Kendallian readings of grand jury secrecy rules — which, if
allowed to stand, would outlaw most lawyer-reporter exchanges
outside lunch orders.

 The New York Times article is a case in point. Having
determined that the article contained no grand jury secrets, an
appeals court panel unanimously overruled Judge Johnson in
September 1999, thus preventing her from initiating contempt
proceedings against Mr. Starr and the OIC staff. (Even the
Justice Department, appointed by Judge Johnson as prosecutor
against the OIC, agreed there had been no violation of grand jury
secrecy rules.) So how is it that Mr. Bakaly now stands trial for
charges stemming from the same article?

 The answer verges on the Kakfaesque. Mr. Bakaly stands
accused, not of leaking grand jury secrets, but rather of falsely
denying that he gave what the Justice Department calls "nonpublic
information" to a reporter — presumably concerning the possible
indictment of Mr. Clinton. His lawyers contend that he was simply
confirming "a truism." In their pretrial brief, they also argue
that the three sworn statements in question were edited and
amended against Mr. Bakaly's wishes by OIC prosecutors to reveal
as little as possible to Mr. Clinton's lawyers, even to the point
of suggesting that Mr. Bakaly had provided no information
whatsoever to the reporter — not even a truism. Does the phrase
"frivolous case" begin to form in the cranial cavity? As even
Julian Epstein, the Democratic counsel on the House Judiciary
Committee and one of Mr. Starr's harshest critics, put it, this
is a "terrible" case, a "semantical game of gotcha. There is no
real underlying offense here," Mr. Epstein said this week.

 It certainly makes you wonder — especially considering that
if Judge Johnson wants to slap contempt citations on offenders
against her court, she's overlooking the most deserving candidate
of all: Bill Clinton.

FBI E-Mail Snooping Device Attacked

http://futurezone.orf.at/futurezone.orf?read=detailid=35107
http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/ap/2711/pl/fbi_snooping_1.html

By D. Ian Hopper
Associated Press Writer
Wednesday, July 12, 2000; 8:12 a.m. EDT

WASHINGTON -- Civil liberties and privacy groups are railing
against a new system designed to allow law enforcement agents to
intercept and analyze huge amounts of e-mail in connection with
an investigation.

The system, called "Carnivore," was first hinted at on April 6 in
testimony to a House subcommittee. Now the FBI has it in use.

When Carnivore is placed at an Internet service provider, it
scans all incoming and outgoing e-mails for messages associated
with the target of a criminal probe.

In a letter addressed to two members of the House subcommittee
that deals with Fourth Amendment search-and-seizure issues, the
American Civil Liberties Union argued that the system breaches
the Internet provider's rights and the rights of all its
customers by reading both sender and recipient addresses, as well
as subject lines of e-mails, to decide whether to make a copy of
the entire message.

Further, while the system is plugged into the Internet provider's
systems, it is controlled solely by the law enforcement agency.
In a traditional wiretap, the tap is physically placed and
maintained by the telephone company.

"Carnivore is roughly equivalent to a wiretap capable of
accessing the contents of the conversations of all of the phone
company's customers, with the 'assurance' that the FBI will
record only conversations of the specified target," read the
letter. "This 'trust us, we are the government' approach is the
antithesis of the procedures required under our wiretapping
laws."

Barry Steinhardt, associate director of the ACLU, said citizens
shouldn't trust that such a sweeping data-tap will only be used
against criminal suspects. And even then, he said, the data mined
by Carnivore, particularly subject lines, are already intrusive.

"Law enforcement should be prohibited from installing any device
that allows them to intercept communications from persons other
than the target," Steinhardt said in an interview. "When
conducting these kinds of investigations, the information should
be restricted to only addressing information."

A spokeswoman for Rep. Charles T. Canady, R-Fla., who heads the
House Judiciary subcommittee on the Constitution, said the
congressman had no comment on the letter.

In testimony to Canady's subcommittee, Robert Corn-Revere, a
lawyer at the Hogan  Hartson law firm in Washington, said he
represented an Internet provider that refused to install the
Carnivore system. The provider was placed in an "awkward
position," Corn-Revere said, because the company feared suits
from customers unhappy with the government looking into all the
e-mail.

"It was acknowledged (by the government) that Carnivore would
enable remote access to the ISP's network and would be under the
exclusive control of government agents," Corn-Revere said.

Corn-Revere told the committee that current law is insufficient
to deal with Carnivore's potential and that the Internet provider
lost its court battle in part because of the Internet's
connection to telephone lines, and that the law was stretched to
cover the Internet as well.

Corn-Revere would not reveal the name of his client, and the
client lost the case. He said the FBI has been using Carnivore
since early this year.

James X. Dempsey, senior staff counsel at the Center for
Democracy and Technology, said the main problem with Carnivore is
its mystery.

"The FBI is placing a black box inside the computer network of an
ISP," Dempsey said. "Not even the ISP knows exactly what that
gizmo is doing."

But Dempsey said Internet providers contributed to the problem,
by saying that current technology does not allow the Internet
provider to sort out exactly what the government is entitled to
get under a search warrant. The carriers complained that they had
to give everything to the FBI.

"The service providers said they didn't know how to comply with
court orders," Dempsey said. "By taking that position, they have
hurt themselves, putting themselves into a box."

Marcus Thomas, who heads the FBI's cybertechnology section, told
the Wall Street Journal that the bureau has about 20 Carnivore
systems, which are PCs with proprietary software. He said
Carnivore meets current wiretapping laws, but is designed to keep
up with the Internet.

"This is just a specialized sniffer," Thomas told the Journal,
which first reported details about Carnivore.

Encrypted e-mail, done with an e-mail encoding program like PGP,
still stays in code on Carnivore, and it's up to agents to decode
it.

Dempsey has a possible solution to the problem, though one that's
probably unlikely - show everyone what it does and how it does
it, allowing Internet providers to install the software
themselves.

"The FBI should make this gizmo an open-source product," he said.

Subject: 9th Circuit Opinion re Favish vs OIC (Foster Photos) Out Today

Allan called me minutes ago and asked that I post about the
release in his appeal to the US 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in
his case against the Starr OIC to get various photos of Foster
released under FOIA.

NOTE:  Someone, please post this to the Free Republic site, Allan
requested since I'm not sure how to do so.

[Although Allan didn't mention this, anyone following the
"Foster" thread(s)  on Courtroom might want to post this
information there as well.]

Apparently the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals remanded (send back)
the case to the Federal District Court with instructions that the
District Court Judge view the photos in question "in camera"
(judge alone) to determine which (if any) should be released
under FOIA.

Neither Allan nor I have read the full opinion of the 9th Circuit
yet so we are not sure how "good" it is from Allan's persepctive,
but at least the 9th Circuit did not agree fully with the
District court's opinion.

The text of the full decision of the 9th circuit can apparently
be found at:

www.CA9.uscourts.gov

Once at that site, click on "opinions" and then click on "Favish
versus OIC"  (the opinion came down today from what Allan told
me).

Here are some extracts I pulled from the opinion in 9th Circuit
Court of Appeals Case (Favish V OIC) published today, 7/12.

As I understand it, the District Court judge is merely required
to examine the photos in question to determine whether they
should be released.  Prior to this point the Disrict Court judge
had ruled (summary judgment -- no trial on the merits was held)
that Allan had no cash and had dismissed same.  Allan appealed
that decision and the opinon released today by the 9th Circuit
court of Appeals is the result.

granting summary judgment to the Office of Independent
Counsel (the OIC) in his action under the Freedom of Infor-
mation Act, 5 U.S.C. S 552 (1999) (the FOIA). Favish seeks
10 photos relating to the death of Vincent W. Foster, Jr., the
Deputy Counsel to the President. Holding the OIC has not
established that the photos fall within the privacy exemption
of the FOIA, we reverse the judgment of the district court and
remand for further proceedings.
===

Extracts from Majority Opinion culled by Sprunt:


==
The Statutory Exemption Invoked. First, the OIC denied
Favish's request on one ground that made no sense, viz, that
release of the photos would interfere with law enforcement
proceedings. It took over a year for the OIC to abandon this
position. The bulk of the photos requested were already in the
public domain. How higher quality photos released to Favish
would interfere with law enforcement was not and has not
been explained by an agency under a statutory duty to comply
promptly with a freedom of information request.
Second, after the OIC did release new copies of the 118
photos it had withheld without adequate explanation, it did
not release them in color, nor did it release a new copy of Fos-
ter's eyeglasses. The OIC has now released copies in color
and a new copy of the eyeglasses photo, thanks to the order
of the district court. Not appealing that order, the OIC tacitly
admits that it had no legal right to withhold this material.
   7943
Third, in its answer to Favish's complaint, the OIC specifi-
cally referred to his request for a new copy of the photo pub-
lished in Time, March 18, 1996 and on ABC-TV and stated
that the OIC was "without sufficient information or knowl-
edge to form a belief as to the truth of the allegations" that the
photo had been published in the forms alleged. This denial
was on its face implausible. How could the OIC not discover,
with a modicum of diligence, whether a photo published in
national news media had not come from its files? But the OIC
did not abandon this posture in the ensuing litigation. In its
brief on this appeal, the OIC declared that it did not concede
that the photo had come from its files and added that Favish's
argument "that the photograph already has been widely dis-
seminated" should, therefore, be rejected. Only on appeal in
this court, at oral argument, did counsel for the OIC state that
it was true that the OIC possessed the photo referred to in
Favish's request.


Application of the Statute. Favish's request focuses on how
the OIC conducted its investigation of Foster's death. So
doing, his request is in complete conformity with the statutory

Privacy groups protest FBI email scanner
By The Associated Press
Special to CNET News.com
July 12, 2000, 5:55 a.m. PT
WASHINGTON--Civil liberties and privacy groups railed against a new system
designed to allow law enforcement agents to intercept and analyze huge
amounts of email in connection with an investigation.

The system, dubbed "Carnivore," was first hinted at April 6 in testimony to
a House subcommittee. Now the FBI has it in use.


• Get the "Big Picture"
• Related News
• Message Boards


When Carnivore is placed with an Internet service provider, it scans all
incoming and outgoing emails for messages associated with the target of a
criminal probe.

In a letter addressed to two members of the House subcommittee that deals
with Fourth Amendment search-and-seizure issues, the American Civil
Liberties Union (ACLU) argued that the system breaches the ISP's rights and
the rights of all its customers by reading both sender and recipient
addresses, as well as subject lines of emails, to decide whether to make a
copy of the entire message.

Further, while the system is plugged into the ISP's systems, it is
controlled solely by the law enforcement agency. In a traditional wiretap,
the tap is physically placed and maintained by the telephone company.

"Carnivore is roughly equivalent to a wiretap capable of accessing the
contents of the conversations of all of the phone company's customers, with
the 'assurance' that the FBI will record only conversations of the specified
target," read the letter. "This 'trust us, we are the government' approach
is the antithesis of the procedures required under our wiretapping laws."

Barry Steinhardt, associate director of the ACLU, said citizens shouldn't
trust that such a sweeping data tap will only be used against criminal
suspects. And even then, he said, the data mined by Carnivore, particularly
subject lines, is intrusive.

"Law enforcement should be prohibited from installing any device that allows
them to intercept communications from persons other than the target,"
Steinhardt said in an interview. "When conducting these kinds of
investigations, the information should be restricted to only addressing
information."

A representative for Rep. Charles T. Canady (R-Fla.), who heads the
Constitution subcommittee, said the congressman had no immediate comment on
the letter.

In testimony to Canady's subcommittee, Robert Corn-Revere, a lawyer at the
law firm of Hogan  Hartson here, said he represented an ISP that refused to
install the Carnivore system. He said the provider was placed in an "awkward
position" because the company feared suits from customers unhappy with the
government looking into all its email.

"It was acknowledged (by the government) that Carnivore would enable remote
access to the ISP's network and would be under the exclusive control of
government agents," Corn-Revere added.

He told the committee that current law is insufficient to deal with
Carnivore's potential and that the ISP lost its court battle partly because
telephone laws are stretched to cover the Internet.

Corn-Revere would not reveal the name of his client, which lost the case. He
said the FBI has been using Carnivore since early this year.

James X. Dempsey, senior staff counsel at the Center for Democracy and
Technology, said the main problem with Carnivore is its mystery.

"The FBI is placing a black box inside the computer network of an ISP,"
Dempsey said. "Not even the ISP knows exactly what that gizmo is doing."

But Dempsey said that ISPs contributed to the problem by saying current
technology does not allow them to sort out exactly what the government is
entitled to get under a search warrant. The carriers complained that they
had to give everything to the FBI.

"The service providers said they didn't know how to comply with court
orders," Dempsey said. "By taking that position, they have hurt themselves,
putting themselves into a box."

Marcus Thomas, who heads the FBI's Cyber Technology Section, told The Wall
Street Journal that the bureau has about 20 Carnivore systems, which are PCs
with proprietary software. He said Carnivore meets current wiretapping laws
but is designed to keep up with the Internet.

"This is just a specialized sniffer," Thomas told the Journal, which first
reported details about Carnivore.

Encrypted email, done with an email-encoding program such as PGP (Pretty
Good Privacy), still stays in code on Carnivore, and it's up to agents to
decode it.

Dempsey has a possible solution to the problem, though one that's probably
unlikely: Show everyone what it does and how it does it, allowing ISPs to
install the software themselves.

"The FBI should make this gizmo an open-source product," he said. "Then the
secret is gone."

   FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (7 May, 2000)


   ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION  OUR SOLAR SYSTEM,
  PLUS COMMENTS REGARDING FORBES MAGAZINE ARTICLE


This morning, Mt. Etna  in  Italy erupted.  Also, St.
Louis,  Missouri  had  "14"  inches  of   unpredicted
rainfall and severe flooding.   The  Weather  Channel
stated "that the storm was totally unpredictable."

Sadly --- homes, trailers, and cars were washed away.
At the same time, record heat temperatures are occur-
ring across the  United States.   Louisiana is in the
midst  of  one  of  its  worst  droughts  in recorded
history.

Fact: I have strongly predicted those types of events
across the earth at this time.  (See my earlier Press
Releases, dating back to January, 2000.)

It  is  no  accident that on May 5, 2000, the sun was
photographed  with   explosive   bursts   of   energy
indicated by huge solar flares.

   See:  http://www.cyberspaceorbit.com/
  and the June issue of POPULAR MECHANICS, page 20.

Fact:  Due to  the LAWS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION,
the earth  can expect MORE of the same in the next 30
days.   On May 5, 2000  the earth was on the OPPOSITE
side  of  the  sun  from   planetary  alignment*  and
electromagnetic induction from same into the volatile
sun.

(*Certain planets approximated an alignment, relative
to  their  usual planetary  positions with respect to
one another.)

Fact: The sun's resultant energy releases will rotate
along with the sun's 28-day  rotation period and that
will very likely have an even greater electromagnetic
induction effect into the earth from the sun.

Question:  Why don't you,  the people, know the TRUTH
that I teach?   Dr.  Robert  Smith,  Chief  of  Space
Environment for NASA at Huntsville,  Alabama in 1977,
totally endorsed my teachings  and he even sent to me
Dr. Huntington's  30 years  of research regarding the
connection between sunspots and planets and the cause
of same.  Dr. Smith stated that Dr. Huntington's work
"COMPLIMENTED AND DOCUMENTED" my teachings. See pages
112 through 153 of my book,  THE  ENERGY  MACHINE  OF
JOSEPH NEWMAN.   After having his statisticians check
my calculations and teachings on astronomy, Dr. Smith
specifically  stated,  "THE CHANCES OF  JOSEPH NEWMAN
BEING WRONG IS ALMOST TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE."

With that being the case, why don't "you" the PEOPLE,
know of my life's work for humanity?

I also  refer you  to the  libelous interference with
business  and  commerce  demonstrated  by the article
written by  Robert Park  that is published by  Forbes
Magazine in their  May 15, 2000 issue.   On the cover
of that issue  is written,  "Voodoo  Science  and the
Energy Machine."  Robert Park  and Forbes  are acting
as mouthpieces  for  the power  brokers and their old
boy networks.   It is no  accident that  the libelous
article by Park  is published within  a short time of
my selling the first Collectible, Signed and Numbered
Energy Machines via the internet.

Such an  action  by  Forbes Magazine  reinforces  the
statement by U.S.  Congressman  Robert  Torricelli of
New Jersey when he wrote:

"THIS IS THE GREATEST CONSPIRACY AGAINST ANY HUMAN
   BEING IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD."

Such a conspiracy was further documented by the A  E
Network in  their  Special Report about my work  that
was entitled "Conspiracies."

*

I strongly  welcome any  competent attorney with guts
and honesty to assist  me in filing a lawsuit against
Forbes  Magazine  and  Robert  Park  regarding  their
published,   libelous   statements  that   explicitly
represent an interference with business and commerce.

*

Fact:  The  people  of  the  earth  are suffering, as
exemplified by the above  natural catastrophes.  They
will continue  to suffer  with  virtually  no warning
from federal governments.

Fact: As a result of the knowledge given to me by God
(and as  documented  in my book),  the technology now
exists to PREVENT TORNADOES  FROM OCCURRING.   Yet no
city, state, or  federal  representatives even bother
to contact me.

Fact:  None of those who  attempt to belittle my work
have the scientific integrity and  credibility of Dr.
Robert Smith -- who whole heartedly endorsed my work.

Because my sincere warnings  are being ignored, "you"
the "people" SUFFER!  That does NOT have to happen.

I invite a sincere and competent attorney to  contact
me.

Love to humanity,

NEW EXPLOSIVE CHARGES!

Presidential Award-Winning Civil Servant Reveals Plot By
Chinton/Gore White House to Hide Proof That Commerce Department
Trade Trips Were Bought and Sold

7/12/00 - More secret documents concerning U.S. trade missions
being apportioned for political donations to the Clinton/Gore
campaigns and the Democratic National Committee, or DNC, have
been revealed by an award-winning 25-year career government
executive who once held the rank of acting deputy assistant
secretary for administration at the Commerce Department.

Sonya Stewart, now chief financial officer and chief
administrative officer of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration, or NOAA, overseeing 1,100 employees and an annual
budget of more than $3 billion, has revealed that she signed a
sworn July 7, 2000, statement for Judicial Watch "with great
trepidation and grave concern about retribution and retaliation
which may be directed at me, both professionally and personally,
as a result of this affidavit."

Indeed, her affidavit, turned over to U.S. District Court Judge
Royce C. Lamberth on July 10, will produce wide and substantial
ramifications – but not necessarily for Stewart. Rather, those
most in jeoparday are likely to be the people she identifies in
the senior staff at both the Commerce Department and at White
House.

In the lengthy and incredibly detailed 17-paragraph sworn
statement that names names, cites dates and details activities –
including a previously unknown secret database at the Commerce
Department allegedly containing the names of 40,000 political
donors -- Stewart reports that as head of the Commerce Department
Freedom of Information Act division she personally was aware of
political considerations and communications between top Commerce
officials and White House lawyers to thwart or otherwise withhold
responsive documents under FOIA that had been requested by
Judicial Watch and other organizations, including Congress.

Moreover, Stewart reports that she personally was aware of
instances in which Commerce legal-counsel officials improperly
overrode and withheld documents that clearly showed trade-mission
seats were apportioned specifically for Clinton/Gore political
supporters and donors.

Stewart swore that she also was told by colleagues, subordinates
and superiors that documents unlawfully were withheld under the
FOIA– and covered up by some officials in depositions ordered by
Lamberth. She said this was done by her superiors -- who,
contrary to all practice she had witnessed in her 25-year tenure
at Commerce --reviewed these matters directly with White House
lawyers.

"I am aware of Commerce officials’ contacts with Cheryl Mills,
then Deputy Counsel to the President, concerning whether to
release or withhold certain documents," Stewart states. "I know
that Ms. Mills, in her position as Deputy Counsel to the
President, advised Commerce officials to withhold certain
documents. In my many years working for the federal government on
FOIA and other matters, and in my experience gathering and
responding to FOIA and Congressional requests for information, I
have never known or heard of a federal agency collaborating or
discussing releasing or withholding documents with White House
officials. The Commerce Department’s collaboration with White
House Deputy Counsel Mills on these matters was, in my
experience, highly irregular and at variance with normal
procedures. During the time period at issue, many of the same
documents were being sought by several entities, including
Judicial Watch, Inc., congressional committees, grand juries, and
others. It is my belief and recollection based on my knowledge
and experience that these interactions with Ms. Mills, as well as
other practices, delayed and corrupted the Commerce Department’s
response to Judicial Watch’s FOIA requests."

Stewart further notes that, notwithstanding a December 1998 order
by Lamberth directing Commerce to review its compliance with
Judicial Watch FOIA requests, the order was ignored despite being
brought directly to the attention of then-Commerce Secretary
William M. Daley, who now is the top campaign official for Vice
President Al Gore.

"In my role as Commerce FOIA Director, I have reviewed Commerce
Department documents showing that Commerce Department officials
offered to contact White House official Bruce Lindsey concerning
the vetting of participants, such as James Riady of the Lippo
Group, in trade mission events led by late [Commerce] Secretary
[Ron] Brown," Stewart states. "I have also reviewed Commerce
Department documents which show that Commerce officials did
coordinate with White House official Doris Matsui concerning
potential participants in trade mission activities, and that
Commerce Department officials considered support for the
President and Democratic Party during their review."

Stewart also confirmed earlier sworn statements by Nolanda Hill,

I think the conspiracy here, after driving an hour to see him
speak recently, might be Newman and his "assistants" conspiring
to get me (and his audiences in general) to put $ into something
without his revealing any WORKABLE proof that his engine even

I mean, Duh!!  To say that I was really disappointed (after
reading about his work for years) at what I saw him present would
be an understatement.  I felt a tad burnt, too...i.e., wasting my

   "Theo" comes from the Greek word "theos", i.e., "god".  The "dore" part
 is from "doron", i.e., "gift".

   The names "Theodore" and "Theodora" mean "a gift from God".

   The names "Dorotheos", "Dorothea", and "Dorothy" mean "a gift (from the
 people) to God".  The "gift" may refer to something like a religious vocation,
 or to CLuM human sacrifice, as in the case of Dorothy in the "Wizard of Oz".

[CTRL] Sun Eruption Causes Radio Blackouts

2000-07-12 Thread DIG alfred webre

Wednesday July 12 8:24 PM ET
Sun Eruption Causes Radio Blackouts

WASHINGTON (AP) - A strong solar flare early Wednesday morning caused some
radio blackouts on parts of
the Earth facing the sun and more are possible as the active solar region
rotates toward the center of the sun,
NASA announced.

The space agency said on its science web site that the Solar and Heliographic
Observatory (SOHO) satellite
recorded a massive solar flare, called an X-class flare, about 6:37 a.m. EDT
Wednesday.

Streams of electromagnetic energy erupting from the flare disrupted some
radio communications, the
announcement said.

SOHO, a joint project of NASA and the European Space Agency, also detected
two coronal mass ejections,
huge clouds of electrified gas, erupting from the sun on Monday and Tuesday.

The National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration, which predicts the
effects of solar eruptions,
said there was a 40 percent chance that the mass ejection would trigger a
disruption of the Earth's magnetic
field by Friday. This could create aurora lights reaching into the
mid-lattitudes, which would include the southern
U.S. Aurora lights are common in the far northern and southern latitudes.

The coronal mass ejection sent a bubble of plasma, or electrified gas, toward
the Earth at more than 2 million
miles an hour. The first shock wave of the fast-moving mass was expected to
smash into the Earth's
magnetosphere, the magnetic field that surrounds the planet, on Thursday.
Material from a second, more
powerful ejection is expected on Friday.

The aurora, or northern and southern lights, are a shimmering glow in the sky
caused when energetic particles
from the sun strike atoms of gas in the upper atmosphere of the Earth. The
Earth's magnetic field protects the
planet from these solar particles, but the field dips low over the poles. For
this reason, the aurora is most
commonly seen at high northern and southern latitudes. Unusually powerful
solar bursts can produce the blue
and green lights in the night sky closer to the equator.

Experts say that the aurora is best viewed around midnight, local time.

The corona mass ejection poses no health risk to people on the ground, but
such solar bursts have been known
to damage spacecraft and to disrupt electrical power grids. Most utility
systems and satellites now are
designed to resist such effects, however.

The sun is currently at the peak of its 11-year cycle of intense activity.
