Your so-called "slew of pieces on and about this nutter" are
nothing of the sort (merely another ad hominem fallacy).

You didn't use "quotes" in your search, and your "slew of

-- as is Bill Clintoon, and "White" -- as in White House. So
this "slew of pieces on and about this nutter" are mostly
just pieces about the "nutter" masquerading around the
White House as the commander in Thief. Of course, if you

So what, exactly, does left-libertarianism have to do with a

[CTRL] Possible biotech grain prompts expanded tortilla recall

Possible biotech grain prompts expanded tortilla recall

By PHILIP BRASHER, Associated Press

WASHINGTON (October 13, 2000 8:58 p.m. EDT
http://www.nandotimes.com) - The recent recall of tortillas expanded Friday
when the nation's largest manufacturer recalled all its tortillas, taco shells
and snack chips made with yellow corn because the flour may contain an
unapproved biotech variety of grain.

The move by Mission Foods Co. of Irving, Texas, followed a decision
earlier this week by Safeway Inc. to remove all of Mission's taco shells from
its stores and an earlier recall of taco shells by Kraft Foods.

Mission said it was also switching from yellow to white corn in all its
products. A sister company, Azteca Milling, announced that it was recalling
all its flour made from yellow corn. Azteca supplied the flour for both the
Mission Foods and Kraft taco shells.

At issue is a variety of genetically engineered corn, known as StarLink, that
is not approved for human consumption because of questions about its
potential to cause allergic reactions. Federal officials say the health risk is
remote.

"Our guiding concern has been to protect the safety of the consumer, our
customers and our food products," said Steve Brunner, senior vice
president of Mission Foods.

Mission Foods is a subsidiary of Gruma S.A. of Monterrey, Mexico. Azteca
Milling is a partnership of Gruma and Illinois-based Archer Daniels Midland
Co.

Mission's recall applies to all of its tortilla products, which are sold under
both the Mission name and under a variety of private and generic labels.

The volume was not immediately known, officials said, and Mission
declined to disclose the names of supermarket chains that distribute its
products. It will be up to the stores whether to tell shoppers about the recall,
said Peter Pitts, a Mission spokesman. Mission makes about 10 percent
of the taco shells sold nationwide, he said. Information about the recall was
to be posted to the company's Web site.

Officials with Azteca Milling said they initiated their recall of the flour
because they were not confident of methods of testing for the StarLink
corn. The company plans to mill only white corn.

"Because StarLink is a yellow corn, and we believe that we need to assure
our customers and the public that products made with our flour are safe, the
surest way to bolster confidence is to make products with only white corn,"
said Dan Lynn, Azteca's president.

The corn that was detected in the Kraft and Mission taco shells is believed
to have originated at Azteca's mill in Plainview, Texas.

On Thursday, the Environmental Protection Agency said that the seed's
developer, Aventis CropScience, had agreed to cancel its license to sell
the corn.

Aventis already had suspended sales of the seed for next year's crop and
agreed to reimburse the government for purchasing all of this year's
harvest.

The corn contains a bacterium gene that makes it toxic to an insect pest.
StarLink is one of the least used varieties of biotech corn and the only one
not allowed in food.

The Food and Drug Administration has been testing various food products
for the corn, but officials have declined to discuss the results.

Critics of biotech food say the StarLink incident shows that government
regulation of genetically engineered crops is inadequate.

The government should have never approved StarLink in the first place,
until it was permitted to be used in food, said Jane Rissler of the Union of
Concerned Scientists.

"This is really a black eye to the regulatory regime," she said.

The StarLink corn has become an embarrassment to the biotech industry
and food manufacturers, who have been fighting consumer resistance in
Europe and Japan to genetically engineered crops. To date, there has
been relatively little public concern in the United States.

"It's going to create ripple effects in terms of demands for tighter
regulation" of agricultural biotechnology, said Sano Shimoda, an analyst
with BioScience Securities.

Aventis was supposed to ensure that farmers kept StarLink corn separate
from other varieties but failed to do so, government officials said. The corn
was first detected in the Kraft and Mission taco shells during tests
performed for a coalition of environmental groups opposed to biotech food.

[CTRL] Kansas State Senate Prayer

2000-10-15 Thread MICHAEL SPITZER

-Caveat Lector-

This interesting prayer was given in Kansas at the opening
session of their Senate:

When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the
Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but
this is what they heard:

"Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask Your
forgiveness and to seek Your direction and guidance.  We know
YOUR Word says, " Woe to those who call evil good," but that is
exactly what we have done.  We have lost our spiritual
equilibrium and reversed our values.  We confess that:

We have ridiculed the absolute truth of YOUR Word and called it
pluralism;

We have worshipped other gods and called it multiculturalism;

We have endorsed perversion and called it alternative lifestyle;

We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery;

We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare;

We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable;

We have neglected to discipline our children and called it
building self-esteem;

We have abused power and called it politics;

We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it
ambition;

We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and
called it freedom of expression;

We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and
called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh, GOD, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from
every sin and set us free.  Guide and bless these men and women
who have been sent to direct us to the center of Your will, to
open it.  For we ask it in the name of YOUR Son, the living
Savior, JESUS CHRIST. Amen"



The response was immediate.  A number of legislators walked out
during the prayer in protest.  In 6 short weeks, Central
Christian Church, where Reverend Wright is pastor, logged more
than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 of those calls responding
negatively. The church is now receiving international requests
for copies of this prayer from India, Africa, and Korea.
Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on "The Rest of the
Story" on the radio and received a larger response to this
program than any other he has ever aired.

With the LORD'S help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and
wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called
one nation under GOD.

If possible, please pass this prayer on to your friends.

"If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything."

[CTRL] No Room for Error in Weeks Before the Vote

No Room for Error in Weeks Before the Vote

By RICHARD L. BERKE

CHICAGO, Oct. 13 - The presidential race is so agonizingly tight
for both sides that it has set off a lively debate over whether
Vice President Al Gore or Gov. George W. Bush should dare reach
for something dramatic to try to pull ahead in the next three
weeks or play it safe and hope for the best on Election Day.

Top strategists, politicians and party officials in both
campaigns are so anxious and jittery that many of them readily
acknowledge they could lose.

The bloodshed in the Middle East and the tumult on Wall Street
have only compounded the uncertainty, with strategists saying the
contest has been buffeted by events that could enhance or harm
the prospects of either candidate ó or have no impact at all.

"Any false move could cost one of these guys the presidency of
the United States," said Senator Robert G. Torricelli, Democrat
of New Jersey. "The pressure must be unbearable. There's no
margin for error in this race."

Richard N. Bond, a former Republican national chairman, said,
"Neither of them ought to be whistling `Hail to the Chief' at the
moment."

After weeks of seesawing polls, several surveys said the
competition nationally and in swing states was too close to call.
But perhaps because some polls suggest that Mr. Bush has nudged
ahead after the first two debates, Democratic officials seem
slightly ó just slightly ó more tense than their Republican
counterparts.

In fact, while many Republican officials counsel Mr. Bush to keep
moving forward pressing his issues, prominent Democrats are more
critical of the Gore operation. They say that Mr. Gore must be
far more forceful in accentuating his accomplishments ó and his
differences with Mr. Bush.

Senator Bob Kerrey, Democrat of Nebraska, complained that in the
debates Mr. Gore did not sufficiently counter Mr. Bush's
assertion that he was a uniter who would deal better with
Democrats and Republicans in Congress. Mr. Gore, Mr. Kerrey said,
needs to underscore his achievements on everything from the
budget to trade pacts.

"Gore's got to say, `I delivered,' " Mr. Kerrey said. "You're
saying we didn't do anything? Were you on this planet in '95 and
'96? Bill Clinton and Al Gore almost got run out of the
Democratic Party for working with Republicans. How about the
crime bill? How about the balanced budget act? How about GATT?
How about Nafta?"

James Carville, an architect of President Clinton's victory in
1992, said he did not understand why either Mr. Gore or Mr. Bush
does not do something bold to overtake his rival. Yet Mr.
Carville had no suggestions about what audacious moves either
side could make.

"Somebody's got to come up and grab this thing," he said. "This
is an election that's waiting to be won. It strikes me that the
one who steps up and does something will be the winner. Both
sides are paralyzed by worry."

But officials in both camps said they were nervous that any
dramatic moves in this close a race could backfire ó and make it
impossible for them to recover.

"I come from the Green Bay Packers school of politics," said Tom
Cole, the chief of staff for the Republican Party. "You execute
and you do it well so hopefully the other side can't stop you,
though they have a pretty good idea of what's coming." He added,
"This is a risky time to get cute."

William M. Daley, Mr. Gore's campaign chairman, had a similar
outlook. "If you're 10 points down or 15 points down, you've
really got to throw the long bomb," Mr. Daley said. "Right now
this race is so close it's not about throwing the Hail Mary pass.
What if you come up short?"

Officials on both sides scoffed at the notion of an "October
surprise" that could somehow help their candidate break through.
Their larger concern is that the violence in the Middle East
constitutes an October surprise ó not of their own making ó that
could scramble the race. What is most disconcerting to advisers
in both camps is that there is no way of gauging how a foreign
crisis will affect the race.

If attention to foreign policy continues to escalate, Mr. Gore
could capitalize on his much richer foreign affairs experience
and the tendency of Americans to rally behind an administration
in a time of crisis. On the other hand, if voters disapprove of
how the White House is handling matters of war and peace, they
may turn to Mr. Bush. Republicans, after all, are rated in polls
as more capable of handling foreign policy.

Many Republicans and Democrats said they could not even guess how
the foreign crises would play politically. "We're in charge ó
it's our guy at the White House," Mr. Kerrey said. "It could help
the Democrats. It could hurt the Democrats."

Gov. John Engler of Michigan, a Republican, agreed that the
Middle East episodes could play many ways. But he took issue with
the notion that they could unify the nation around the party that
controls the White House.

"It has as much risk or maybe even

LIBERTIES

As the World Churns

By MAUREEN DOWD


We were sleepwalking toward the election, not loving our choices,
but not really too worried, with the country on palmy automatic
pilot. Suddenly, three weeks out from a new president, the Middle
East blows up and the markets tank.

With talk about war and terrorism and retaliatory bombing, and
heartbreaking pictures of mangled American sailors and mutilated
Israeli soldiers, with F.B.I. agents investigating in Yemen, the
election seems more consequential and the issues more complicated
than merely which side will offer better drug insurance for older
Americans.

Going from cruise control to cruise missiles, we face the eerie
specter of a St. Louis town hall meeting on Tuesday with Al Gore
and George W. Bush debating in the midst of chaos.

The roiling globe provides a different prism to view not only the
nominees, but their running mates. Reporters doing
man-in-the-street interviews began getting a few questions
wondering if Joseph Lieberman would have the proper distance on
Israeli issues. Awkward campaigner Dick Cheney all at once found
himself on terra firma, urging "swift retaliation" against those
who attacked the U.S.S. Cole.

It is easy to imagine the Bush inner circle, always reliving the
glory days of Desert Storm, swinging into action on the strategy
of another Middle East war. You know Poppy is peppering his son
with e-mails like "Talk to Condi. Get with Wolfowitz. Very
tricky. Water's edge. Nation with one voice."

If W., who has been winging it on foreign affairs, had given a
shakier debate performance Wednesday, the race might be over.
With the scary backdrop of the Middle East, Al Gore could have
jumped ahead as he grimly told Americans he had to leave Iowa's
pumpkin-strewn campaign stages to join "the principals" of the
National Security Council in the situation room.

But in Winston-Salem, W. was like Peter Pan. You knew there were
wires holding him up as he flew Around the World With 80 Coaches.
(He had finally figured out what was going on in East Timor.) But
the Bush team did a pretty good job of hiding those wires for an
hour and a half.

And W. ended up with bonus points from the first debate when it
turned out that his suggestions that the Russians be called on to
help push out Slobodan Milosevic ó which Mr. Gore haughtily
dismissed ó turned out to be what the Clinton administration was
already doing.

Al Gore, by contrast, had such a bad second debate that his
foreign affairs I.Q. is not giving him the edge it should as the
world turns dark.

The vice president was in a straitjacket the whole debate,
forcing himself to look humble because he had looked too arrogant
in the first debate. But the humble act was self-defeating.

Gore was reacting to Gore, like the sheriff in "Blazing Saddles"
who holds a gun to his own head and takes himself hostage. W.
seemed almost like a bemused spectator at the vice president's
split-personality psychodrama. And since Mr. Gore was afraid to
show his smarts and his contempt for W., the pair came across as
a couple of regular guys running for student body president.

You knew what the transparent Mr. Gore was thinking, of course,
when he was forcing himself to give that self-effacing little
smile: I know I'm smarter. I'm just not allowed to say so.

The scene conjured up that hilarious "Saturday Night Live" sketch
from 1988, with Jon Lovitz playing Michael Dukakis and Dana
Carvey doing his papa Bush.

BUSH: "So, in summary . . . stay the course . . . thousand points
of light . . . thousand points of light . . . stay the course.

MODERATOR: Governor Dukakis? Rebuttal?

DUKAKIS: I can't believe I'm losing to this guy.

Mr. Gore's confidants always worried that his biggest problem
would be that he does not know who he really is, and there was a
danger he would turn the race into a personality crisis.

The vice president thought his main hurdle was getting out of
Bill Clinton's shadow and showing he was his own man. But the
more he shows himself, the less people seem to like him. If only
he had put himself in that lockbox right after the L.A.
convention.

Now we will see whether W.'s foreign affairs tutorial has staying
power. And whether Mr. Gore can put aside his own identity crisis
and deal with the world's.

There are no saints or sinner at any stage.  The Palestinians probably don't

In the past two days, Israeli settlers have been on the rampage. Armed,
protected and supported by Israeli troops, the Israeli settlers have killed
five Palestinian civilians in the past twenty-four hours; three killed in
the occupied Palestinian territory and two in the city of Nazareth in
Israel.

Around one thousand Israeli extremist settlers from Natzrat Elite (Higher
Nazareth), supported by the Israeli police, attacked East Nazareth; they
broke into the homes of the Palestinian residents, and fired at Palestinian
civilians killing Omar Ikawi, 42, and Wisam Yazbik, 26, and wounding thirty
people, five of them critically. The deaths of Ikawi and Yazbik raise the
death toll of Palestinians within the Green Line, (in Israel) to 13.

In the occupied Palestinian territory, Israeli settlers have killed three
Palestinians. Israeli settlers murdered Fahid Abu Baker, 23, from Bedia,
Salfeet, in the occupied territories, on October 7, 2000.

Settlers burned the body of Sayil Swaidan, 25, from Azoon, Qalqilia who
disappeared during a settlers' attack on the Palestinian town. Farmers found
the corpse of Swaidan in an olive feild. Swaidan had been shot in the back
of his head, but it is not clear whether this was the cause of death.

The body of Isam Hamad, 36, from Um Safa, Ramallah, was found in a field
near his village. An eyewitness stated that he saw Hamad driving to his farm
when an Israeli military vehicle stopped and took him away. Hamad was found
dead today (October 9, 2000) in the morning near Pisgot settlement. Isam
Hamad had been tortured to death. There is evidence that he was
electrocuted, burned with a hot iron, and attacked with an axe. Law has
asked a medical examiner to prepare a full report.

For the past couple of days settlers attacked Palestinian citizens and their
property and their homes. They used firearms in their attacks while the
occupation army turned a blind eye to their aggressive acts. They attacked
the Old City of Jerusalem and some parts of Shufat, Hizma, Shufat refugees'
camp, Anata, Al Isawiyi, Al Ram, Dahiyit Al Bareed, and Harit Al Aqbat as
well as Hebron and the main road junctions. This often occurred in sight of
the Israeli army.

[CTRL] NM: Analysis: Was Clinton Being Blackmailed by the Kremlin?

2000-10-15 Thread MICHAEL SPITZER

-Caveat Lector-

Analysis: Was Clinton Being Blackmailed by the Kremlin

NewsMax.com

Monday, Oct. 9, 2000


Intelligence experts consulted by NewsMax.com cast serious doubt
on Yeltsin’s suggestion that the Lewinsky matter was a
Republican-inspired setup.

Lewinsky, for example, far from being an agent provocateur, was a
staunch defender of the president throughout the scandal. Her
affair only unraveled and became public in January of 1998 after
a chain of events involving her relationship was raised during
the Paula Jones civil suit against the president.

But the Yeltsin revelations raise several significant concerns:


*What knowledge did the Russians and other countries have of Bill
Clinton’s private life?

 Lewinsky testified under oath that during her steamy Oval Office
affair with the president, he said that he would not be able to
telephone her because a "foreign country" was tapping his White
House phone lines.

Lewinsky never specified what country Clinton believed was
surveilling his communications, but it raises the question of
whether Clinton’s relations with Lewinsky were discovered by the
Russians or other foreign intelligence agencies. *Was Clinton
being blackmailed?

 Intelligence experts have worried that the president’s private
life may have led to compromising him and, de facto, the
country’s national security.

Russia continues to operate a significant spy network in the
United States, a holdover of the Soviet days. Additionally,
Russia maintains a large communication-gathering spy station at
Lourdes, Cuba.

The old Soviet intelligence agencies used blackmail and extortion
to achieve their national interests, and there is no reason to
believe the Russians have stopped using those tactics. *Why has
Clinton turned a blind eye to Russian wrongdoing?

 Widespread sentiment in Russia today, and most certainly so
during the Yelstin years, was that the U.S. has supported a
corrupt Russian mafia at the expense of ordinary Russians.

 Clinton’s Russia policy has been masterminded by two people:
Vice President Al Gore and deputy Secretary of State Strobe
Talbot.

 Both have given the Russian government carte blanche as billions
have been siphoned off from Russian government accounts and
funneled to offshore banking centers.

One expert with a background in Russian matters notes: "From the
start of the relationship with Monica Lewinsky until Clinton
admitted it in public, that is, from November '95 until 17 August
'98, the fact of the relationship, the fact the Russians knew
about it quite early in '96 probably, the likelihood that Clinton
knew they knew, and that he wanted throughout this period to
cover it up all constitute a prima facie case for extortionary
pressure, real or felt. It is precisely in this period that we
funneled billions of dollars via the IMF and other channels, into
the Yeltsin campaign, into the debt pyramid, and into corruption
at the top."

 He notes with suspicion that "the Russian financial crash that
largely stopped this for a time occurred precisely on 17 August
1998."

 Root Scandal: National Security

 Despite the White House spin that the scandals that have plagued
the Clinton administration have been "just about sex," serious
concerns have been raised about whether the Clinton White House
could have been susceptible to extortion based on the president’s
private life.

 National security concerns have included:


*The president’s relationship with China. Under Clinton
administration policies, some of America’s most-guarded nuclear,
ballistic missile and encryption technologies have passed into
the hands of the Chinese. At the same time, according to FBI
reports, the Democratic National Committee received more than $10
million during the 1996 campaign. Russia’s continuing military
buildup. Despite its economic woes, Russia’s military continues
to modernize as it engages in a bloody war in Chechnya – yet the
administration remains silent and continues to pump billions into
Russia.

[CTRL] AP: Tribe Accused of Drug Program Abuse

2000-10-15 Thread MICHAEL SPITZER

-Caveat Lector-

MASHANTUCKET, Conn.(AP) - A wealthy Indian tribe that runs the
world's largest casino abused a government health program
intended for American Indians by dispensing $5.8 million in
discounted prescription drugs to its non-Indian casino employees,
a federal audit says.

The audit found that 82 percent of the drugs dispensed under the
program by the Mashantucket Pequot's pharmacy in 1998 and 1999
went to ineligible patients.

In response, the federal Indian Health Service said it will
review all prescription drug contracts with tribes across the
country. The service said it will also instruct the Mashantuckets
to stop including non-Indians in the program.

Tribal spokesman Arthur Henick said Monday that the Mashantuckets
disagree with the audit's conclusions and may appeal to top
health officials in Washington. He said there are no immediate
plans to scale back the drug program, which he said allows the
tribe to provide prescription medicine at no cost to its
employees.

The Mashantuckets run Foxwoods Resort Casino, which takes in
upwards of $1 million a day in gambling revenue. There is no
suggestion the tribe profits directly from the sale of the drugs.
However, on its Web site, Foxwoods touts its ``no-cost
prescription program with onsite delivery'' as a job benefit.

Health officials expressed concern that including non-Indians who
work in tribal businesses could jeopardize the future of the drug
discount, which some poorer tribes count on for affordable
prescription medicines.

``Evidence of program abuse could prompt Congress to reconsider
the future of discounted drug programs, which would ultimately
affect the millions of federal beneficiaries who now depend upon
them for their health care,'' June Gibbs Brown, the U.S. Health
and Human Services Department's inspector general, wrote in an
Aug. 17 memo to the head of the Indian Health Service.  Brown's
office conducted the audit.

Under the Veterans Health Care Act of 1992, the Veterans Affairs
Department, the Pentagon, the Coast Guard and the Public Health
Service are entitled to buy drugs from suppliers at deeply
discounted rates - often less than 50 percent the regular price.
The Indian Health Service, a unit of the Public Health Service,
extends this service to tribes that have ``self-determination
contracts'' with the government.

Tribes can then provide the discounted drugs to their own
members. But the law says the drugs may be dispensed to
non-Indians only if ``there are no reasonable alternative health
services available.''

The Mashantucket tribe has about 600 members, plus 12,000
employees at its casino, hotels, restaurants and museum. Together
with their dependents, about 22,000 people, almost all of them
non-Indians, are covered under the tribe's prescription drug
plan, auditors said.

Auditors said that because there are at least 40 drug stores
within 10 miles of the reservation, the tribe cannot claim a lack
of alternative health services.

The auditors also dismissed the tribe's contention that the
Indian Health Service was aware of its practice of selling drugs
to non-Indians, saying that even if it were true, the health
service does not have the authority to approve it.

Casino employees said the tribe's prescription drug benefit was
unusually generous and would be sorely missed.

Leo Jackson, a shuttle bus driver who said he lost his medical
coverage while employed at Electric Boat in Groton years ago,
said he requires three prescriptions for cancer treatment.

``There's no way I could afford to pay even for part of this
stuff I have to take,'' Jackson said. ``I don't know what I'll do
if the plan disappears.''

Henick said the Mashantuckets do not consider the inspector
general's report the final word on the matter.

``The tribe has been able to provide one of the best health plans
in the region for its employees,'' Henick said. ``We're going to
continue to do anything we can for our employees, whom we
consider part of the tribe for purposes of health care.''

Although the inspector general's report concentrated on the
Mashantuckets, it found reason to believe the alleged abuse may
involve other tribes.

The report noted that in August 1999, a consortium of 11 tribes
in Michigan and Wisconsin requested advice on the legality of
providing discounted drugs to non-Indians, indicating that they
believed they could do so. It was not immediately clear whether
the tribes received a reply.

In addition, the Mashantuckets contract with 16 other tribes to
provide mail-order pharmaceutical services. Auditors contacted
six of the tribes and found that four of them include non-Indian
employees among those who receive discounted drugs from the
Mashantuckets.

[CTRL] AP: White House Lawyers Hold Facts

Wednesday October 11 4:26 PM ET

Ray: White House Lawyers Hold Facts

By GREG TOPPO, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) - Independent Counsel Robert Ray's office has
accused a former White House attorney of ``inaccurate testimony''
and suggested to a judge that presidential lawyers made it
difficult for investigators to find subpoenaed documents.

Ray's office took the rare step of intervening in an unrelated
civil case involving missing White House e-mails to draw the
judge's attention to the practices of President Clinton's lawyers
during the 1998 investigation that led to his impeachment.

Though not a party to the lawsuit, ``this office has an
obligation to assure that inaccurate testimony is corrected,''
Deputy Independent Counsel Jay Apperson wrote in a letter dated
Oct. 5. The letter was made public Wednesday.

In the letter, Apperson challenged the veracity of former White
House lawyer Michelle Peterson's testimony in the lawsuit, and
urged U.S. District Judge Royce C. Lamberth to take ``appropriate
action.''

Peterson testified that White House lawyers always produced
subpoenaed documents to investigators ``as soon as anything was
found.'' And whenever requested documents turned up belatedly,
White House lawyers would ``explain why they hadn't been found
before,'' Peterson testified.

But Apperson wrote that Peterson knew this wasn't the practice of
White House lawyers. He said she was ``personally involved in the
failure to disclose to this office the belated discovery of an
important document'' during the Monica Lewinsky probe.

That document revealed that White House officials were concerned
that Lewinsky had been engaged in ``extracurricular activities''
inside the White House before they transferred her to a job at
the Pentagon. The memo became an important piece of evidence in
the report prosecutors sent Congress that initiated impeachment
proceedings against Clinton.

Apperson told the judge that Peterson ``made no effort to
disclose'' the belated discovery of the document, ``delayed
production of the document for over a week following its
discovery'' and then placed it in a package of 970 pages of
documents sent to prosecutors handling another case.

Apperson suggested to the judge that it was routine for the White
House to ``covertly transmit'' belatedly discovered documents
without calling attention to them.

He sent the judge a 1998 letter in which then-Special Counsel to
the President Lanny Breuer acknowledged to the Office of the
Independent Counsel that White House lawyers routinely sent newly
discovered documents to prosecutors without clearly stating their
relevance.

The letter also acknowledged that White House lawyers routinely
sent belatedly discovered material with documents required by a
different subpoena, without indicating that the material had been
ordered by a prior subpoena.

``Although we provide you with a production log, we do not
invariably and explicitly identify a recently discovered document
to you in our cover letter,'' Breuer wrote.

An official with the White House counsel's office on Wednesday
said he had not seen Apperson's letter and had no immediate
response. A phone call to Peterson's lawyer was not immediately
returned.

Attorney Larry Klayman, whose conservative legal group Judicial
Watch brought the e-mail lawsuit, said Apperson's letter shows
``a pattern and practice of obstruction of justice'' by the White
House.

He has alleged that the administration is dragging its heels in
restoring thousands of lost e-mails.

Klayman, who has put several administration officials - including
Peterson - on the stand since last summer, said Apperson's letter
``just explodes any defense that they have that the e-mail was a
matter of good faith.''

A programming error in 1998 prevented thousands of incoming
messages - including some from Vice President Al Gore's office -
from being archived. As a result, they were not reviewed by White
House lawyers to determine whether they should have been turned
over to investigators probing cases that included the Monica
Lewinsky scandal, Whitewater and campaign fund raising.

Ray is investigating whether the White House covered up the
e-mail problem in 1998 at the height of the Lewinsky scandal.
Presidential aides have denied any cover-up.

U.S. Oil Workers Seized in Ecuador

The Associated Press
Thursday , October 12, 2000


QUITO, Ecuador –– An armed group seized a helicopter with 10
foreigners aboard from an oil field in the Amazon jungle
Thursday, Ecuador's vice president said.

Those kidnapped were six Americans, two Frenchmen, a Chilean and
an Argentine, military officials said.

Vice President Pedro Pinto told reporters "the kidnapping is
confirmed."

Pinto said Colombia's largest guerrilla organization the
Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia "have claimed
responsibility saying they carried out the kidnapping, in
reprisal for Plan Colombia." Plan Colombia is an anti-narcotics
initiative backed by a $1.3 billion U.S. aid package.

A military official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the
gunmen hijacked the Superpuma helicopter from the YPF oil field
at 4 a.m. in the El Coca region, about 100 miles northeast of the
capital, Quito.

Last September, another armed group seized oil workers and
several other people from an area north of the oil field where
Thursday's abduction took place. The last of those hostages were
freed months later, but it was never confirmed if a ransom was
paid and the kidnappers were not identified.

Re: [CTRL] Mass Drugging at schools?

Piper - once I got into a very bitter disagreement with a school nurse -

from this vaccine could cause sweling of the brain, etc.

Threats were made - finally I required the nurse and doctor
administering the vaccine sign a paper they would be held responsible
personally for any injury that might be caused by the drug - I won that
argument - but at the time, 1 in 100,000 kids had these "harmless" side

doctor you want this, etc.   Doctors do not approve of this method of
advertising..and oh, when they tell of the harmless side effects
which they must so do according to law - how fast they speak, and oh so
softly - as though nothing to worry about.

Big time illegal drug money is being put into the pharmaceutical

[CTRL] NEWSFLASH: OCTOBER 14

2000-10-15 Thread K

-Caveat Lector-

http://www.nomorefakenews.com/

NEWSFLASH: OCTOBER 14. Who is making an illegal killing in
the stock market right now and ripping off millions of Americans?
Who is profiting from the violence and death in Palestine?  Who is
making $$$ from the deaths of US sailors on the USS Cole?  Who
is racking up huge rewards from higher oil prices?

A respected investment advisor, speaking off the record, states,
"Everybody on Wall Street knows that when oil goes up the
business stocks on every exchange in the world begin to drop. If
you have inside information on oil prices, you can play the market
like a fiddle.  Certain big oil executives and their friends have been
short-selling stocks all over the world and watching them drop.
Their profits are staggering."

The recent massive fall in stock markets has also been
coordinated with the bombing of the USS Cole and the violence in
Palestine.  These murderous events cause investors to get jittery
and sell their stock holdings, forcing stock prices to go down.

So while US families worry about freezing this winter, fat cats are
reaping huge benefits from short selling--betting, in effect, that
major stock prices will go down.  Their bets are correct.

The Securities and Exchange Commission, the US agency
responsible for keeping the investing game fair, is of course
sitting on its hands.

The stock advisor I spoke with goes on to say, "There should be an
immediate investigation to find out who is illegally making millions
from the current crises around the world.  But that won't happen.
Because such an investigation would reveal that the whole stock-
investing game is rigged on many fronts..."

Gore and Bush say nothing either, because they are fronting for
special interests who know how to play this fixed stock game very
well.  The public is fed the boring presidential debates, in which the
object seems to be taking on the role of the most polite
candidate.  The public is told it would be a mortal sin not to vote
for either Bush or Gore.

Reports coming out of all major news outlets keep repeating "eye-
witness accounts" of a raft "loaded with explosives" that blew up
with its terrorist passengers at the hull of the USS Cole.  This,
despite the fact that there is a very high probability the raft was
carrying a very sophisticated shaped charge--and wasn't stacked
with any explosives.  See much more below.  (written and filed by
Jon Rappoport on Saturday, Oct.14)


 NEWSFLASH: OCTOBER 13.  Knowledgeable sources
indicate that the bomb that took out a 40 X 20 section of the USS
Cole and killed US sailors was a shaped charge.  This charge was
"sophisticated, outfitted with either a contact detonator or a
proximity detonator." So the bomb would have gone off on the raft
when the raft either touched the hull of the Cole or came close to
it.  The people behind this were not amateurs.

The bombing of the USS Cole occurred on the day when two Israeli
soldiers were killed by Palestinians, provoking the Israeli
helicopter/rocket attack--and on the same day that the US stock
markets plunged.  These and other events of October 12 suggest
intentional coordination on a broad scale. (Written and filed by Jon
Rappoport. See more below.)

NEWSFLASH: OCTOBER 12.  Middle East conflict, terrorism, oil
prices, the election in the US, the stock market, the economy,
Israel, Palestine.

This is an OPERATION.  This is not a series of  accidents or
coincidences.  As the tech stocks on NASDAQ started to
tumble, exposing the dotcoms and the phony biotech companies--
several months ago--both the Repubs and the Demos began to
think about how an economic downturn might affect their
Presidential campaign strategies.  Oil prices a little later began to
rise.  The energy moguls, backing Bush, saw the possibility that a
temporary hit of this kind to the economy in the US could benefit
Bush's cause.  After all, who wants to change political parties in
the middle of what the press has been calling the greatest period of
prosperity in US history? So, the thinking has gone, why not erode
that prosperity with rising oil prices and get the people to bring in
Bush Jr.  Nothing very unusual so far.

Through overt manipulation, not so different from the holding of US
hostages in Iran during the Carter-Reagan campaign of 1980, the
US has been being held hostage, in a very soft way, by rising
oil prices--and these prices would immediately drop as soon as
Bush Jr. won the White House...just as the hostages returned as
soon as Reagan was inaugurated President.  This is a distinct
parallel.  After all, George Bush Sr. was involved in the October
Surprise, which was the deal made with the Ayatollah in Iran to
hold the US hostages until the election of 1980, thereby wrecking
all confidence in the Presidency of Jimmy Carter and ensuring a
Reagan victory.

But now the ante was upped.  Clinton-Gore decided to free up US
reserves of oil to counteract the energy moguls' raising of oil
prices.  This was a bit

BIG OIL and "TERRORISTS" by Sherman H. Skolnick 10/14/00
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
http://www.skolnicksreport.com


A good handle on a number of details is necessary to understand this
subject.


1. In 1953, British and U.S. oil interests were upset with the popular
head of Iran, Premier Mossadegh, who demanded a bigger cut for his
countrymen of Iran's exploited oilfields. With an elite unit of U.S.
Military Intelligence, (mostly Afro-Americans from Chicago who seemed to
fit in good with the people of color in Iran) together with the money
and plans of British Intelligence, Mossadegh was overthrown, and Shah
Pahlavi was restored to his "Peacock Throne". [The coup facilitators
later became part of a Chicago law firm that included George Leighton, a
dark-skinned Portugeuse, who went on in later years to be a federal
district judge and then mob-mouthpiece off the bench. We have the
documents from the National Archives showing this group of former
assassins/government overthrowers, were the secret attorneys in 1963 for
CIA patsy falsely blamed for the murder of JFK, Lee Harvey
Oswald.]


The press-fakers told us little of what was involved. Such as: that the
Shah and his elders had been pro-Nazi and caused quite a problem for the
Allies in World War 2. Former intelligence spook, Kermit Roosevelt,
wrote a book, "Counter Coup", about it, letting slip the involvement of
British spies in the overthrow of Mossadegh. His book was withdrawn from
U.S. bookstores before distribution. Only 8 copies were left and we have
several of those suppressed books. Later, a sanitized version was
issued.


2. The British purpose: On behalf of the British Monarchy, under the
Palestine Mandate, British Intelligence planned for a Jewish-dominated
Palestine, to be put in position to irritate the surrounding Arab
countries soaked with oil. It was the British historical method: Divide
and Conquer. That is, use the new State of Israel to keep the oily Arabs
off-balance. A British-owned newspaper, the Jerusalem Post, steers the
pot repeatedly fomenting troubles, between the Jews and the
Arabs.


3. The British Monarchy financed the oil endeavors of George Herbert
Walker Bush, which later became the firm of which he owns a great part,
Pennzoil. See our website series, "Greenspan Aids and Bribes the Bush
Family," as to how Bush used crooked high court judges in Texas to grab
onto their competitor, Texaco, whose major source of oil is Iraq. When
the Queen of England visits America, she stays at the home in  Texas of
Bush the Elder's trusted secret money handler, William Stamps Farish
III, who owns and boards the studs that mate with the Queen's mares.
Also on our website are the secret documents of Federal Reserve wire
transfer records, showing the joint account of George Herbert Walker
Bush and the Queen of England, at the bank owned by the Monarchy, Coutts
Bank, London. Billions and billions of dollars from the dope trafficking
trade, go through that joint account, with the aid and blessing of the
Czar of the Federal
Reserve.


As to the Bush family and the British Monarchy, see "George Bush, the
Unauthorized Biography" by Webster Griffin Tarpley and Anton
Chaikin.

4. For  well over a hundred years, J.P. Morgan  Co. have been the
Queen's agents headquartered in New York. In its simplest form, how the
U.S. was lured into Europe's War in 1917, involved huge loans for
munitions to Britain from Morgan. When England could not pay back,
Morgan arranged to instigate events falsely dragging America into the
war. This whole situation was planned prior to the war's onset in 1914.
The foisting of the conspiratorial Federal Reserve onto the docile and
innocent American people in 1912, was part of the scheme to consolidate
America as the money cow for Great Britain's bloody adventures.[In 1934,
the Federal Reserve connived in seizing the gold of ordinary Americans
who were not legally permitted to own gold again until
1975.]


To show their loyalty, J.P. Morgan  Co. traditionally have flown the
Britsh flag at their Wall Street
location.


5. J.P. Morgan  Co. and their affiliates, such as Morgan Stanley
brokerage, together with the parent holding companies of 18 money center
banks have been part of a scheme to artificially force up the price of
oil, starting just prior to the year 2000 Presidential election. The
press whores do not mention that there is, in fact, a worldwide glut of
oil. Remember: the key event in December, 1998, was NOT the impeachment
resolutions just on sex charges against Clinton. It was that the price
of crude oil

 You're right.  There is always restraint, but there is always the hatred.

Yes there is hatred. The hatred is taught and exploited by the Palestinians.
The Israelis have become bourgie Liberals, and as such, have tried to overcome
the emotions of the past. Those who exploit the hatred on Jewish side are
either religious, or the Jewish refugees from Arab countries who know damn
well what being exposed to hatred is all about.

 And there is always the contempt.  And there is always the sneaky tormenting.

How do you know this?

  It's the settling of America all over again.

NO IT'S NOT. You are completely wrong about this. It's not even remotely
similar to the settling of America. This is the problem with you Liberals.
You see things through your pet sufferings whether it's real or not. I'll
bet that YOU don't share YOUR house with an Indian family. Do you?
Why don't you just turn over your home and leave the country. Set an example,
then maybe the Israelis will follow your lead.

 But then, they were the
 Indians, and they were not of the proper faith, and they wanted to go where
 they wanted to go, and they wanted their land back, and they thought they
 should be able to eat and feed their families.  History repeats itself on
 this planet--over and over and over and over.   Prudy

Well at least you got that right. Most of history's conflicts were about shifting
populations. With the exception of Australia's Aboriginals, no group is sitting
on real estate that wasn't someone else's NOT EVEN THE AMERICAN INDIANS who
killed off the original aboriginal settlers of the Americas. The question is-
HOW LONG AFTER YOU TOOK SOMEONE ELSE'S LAND, IS THAT LAND CONSIDERED YOURS.
In the USA, it was immediately after conquest or purchase. In the Caribbean, it
was the moment Columbus planted the Cross. In New Zealand they are still
struggling with the issue. In Israel it hasn't happened yet in the eyes of the
world EVEN AFTER HALF A CENTURY. Why not? I know the answer and the reason
sucks.

The Palestinians are adrift in an Arab sea. Why? They are the only ethnic group
in the world who have been refugees for 52 years. Why? The Hashemite Kingdom of
Jordan is the other ( Arab ) half of Palestine. Sixty to seventy percent of the
population is Palestinian. They are controlled by a minority puppet regime set
up by Great Britain. Why are the Palestinians still in refugee camps after
fifty two years when there is a Palestinian homeland 10 meters from the West
Bank?

Answer= Because the Palestinians are the only single thing that unites the
Arabs by focussing hatred on the Jews.

Answer= Because the Palestinian issue distracts the various Arab populations
from their own oppression by their own elites. As in Saudi Arabia,
Egypt, Kuwait, Syria, Iraq, etc.

Answer= Because Islam does NOT  ALLOW another religion to be dominant.

Answer= Because keeping the Palestinians as underdogs provides the Arabs with
entree into the Christian psyche other than the enmity of religious
conflict.

Answer= Because Israel is too strong to be overthrown. It will stay that way
because the alternative is four million or so dead Jews, and frankly
we are not going to allow that to happen again even if that is what it
takes to be the new underdog in the Mid-East and gain your sympathies.

Not true Prudy. At best ( and I doubt it ) the Palestinians can trace their

But all of this is irrelevant. The Jews have Jerusalem NOW. And they will keep

Israelis lose the ability to hold it, or are stupid enough to give it up, then
it will belong to someone else. That's all there is to it.

First the Pagans had it. Then the Jews took it. Then the Romans took it and
destroyed it. Then the Christians had it. Then the Moslems took it. Now the
Jews have it again. And the seasons, they go round and round.

Only the Jews allowed the other religions to worship there when in control.

Navy flag-lowering plan confirmed
CINCPACFLT officer:
'There was a proposal to
change the regulations'

--

--

By Geoff Metcalf
© 2000 WorldNetDaily.com

A high-ranking U.S. Navy officer has confirmed WorldNetDaily's Aug. 23 report
that President Bill Clinton wanted to lower the American flag beneath the
level of Vietnam's flag during a planned trip to the Southeast Asian country
before he leaves office.
One of WND's more controversial reports in recent months, the exclusive story
by reporter Geoff Metcalf had two parts: One, that the president was secretly
planning a trip to Southeast Asia after the November election but before the
end of his term, and two, that he planned to have a U.S. Navy ship, with him
onboard, lower its flag -- in violation of long-standing Navy regulations --
to below the level of the Vietnamese flag when the U.S. ship pulled into
Vietnam's territorial waters.

While the idea of the commander in chief using the Navy's flag to "bow"
before the communist Vietnamese infuriated an enormous number of U.S.
military personnel, the story also elicited swift denial from the Navy.

"The Navy is not aware of any planned trips by the President to China or
Vietnam aboard a Navy ship," said Alan P. Goldstein, assistant chief of
information for technology integration in the Navy's Office of Information in
the Pentagon. "I ... can assure you that there are no plans to change the
regulations governing the flying of the U.S. flag on U.S. Navy warships,"
Goldstein added, noting that "federal statutes determine Navy Regulations on
the flying of the national ensign on Navy vessels and are not subject to
alteration by the Department of the Navy."

At the same time, in an e-mail alert widely circulated on the Internet, Phil
Alperson, legislative director for Rep. Ronnie Shows, D-Miss., announced:

I have spoken with White House officials. They UNAMBIGUOUSLY state the
following:


There are no plans at this time for the President to make such a trip.

If he were to make such a trip, there is no way he will alter Navy
regulations requiring that the U.S. flag always fly above any other flag.
THIS IS AN UNFOUNDED RUMOR THAT MUST STOP NOW!

Nevertheless, within weeks the White House acknowledged that Clinton would
indeed make the trip, a development reported widely, by the Associated Press
and USA Today among others.

As to the validity of the second half of WND's story -- the alleged plan to
avoid offending the Vietnamese government by temporarily lowering the
American flag below the level of the communist nation's flag -- there has
been no independent confirmation until now.

Yesterday, WorldNetDaily received this letter, on letterhead, from a
high-ranking U.S. Navy officer in CINCPACFLT (Commander In Chief U.S. Pacific
Fleet), written to a high government official who was one of WND's original
sources for the story. Per the CINCPACFLT officer's request, his name and
rank are being withheld from publication:

Thanks for sending those news accounts concerning Clinton's planned trip to
Vietnam and the proposed change to Navy regulations.

You asked what the hell is going on in the Navy. In a nutshell, and
unfortunately, one or more of our Navy spokesmen are not being truthful. That
in itself is a sad event and serves to illustrate what has happened to the
military under this administration. There was a proposal to change the
regulations to accommodate a presidential trip to Vietnam and Vietnam
requires that its flag fly in the superior position. ... The good news is
that there appears to be no support for the proposal on the staff, but the
bad news is there is more to this story.

The direction to submit the request apparently did not originate on the
CINCPACFLT staff, but was directed from above, probably up at the SECDEF
[Secretary of Defense] level. Unfortunately, everyone serving in this
administration seems to have been corrupted by it, or perhaps all of
Clinton's DoD appointees were corrupt coming in the door. No one is talking
about this issue on the staff anymore, which strongly suggests that the news
story killed the initiative. If I were a betting man, I would bet that this
is a dead issue.

To clarify one facet of the story, I am sure that there never was any
intention for Clinton to go to Vietnam on a Navy ship, although he may
envision himself traveling on a Navy ship, as did Franklin D. Roosevelt. I
believe that the concept was for a port visit by one of our ships concurrent
with his visit. In any event, is it not interesting that the White House
finally owned up to the visit after this news article broke? I put nothing
past this guy and I hope Mr. Metcalf keeps burning him. I'd like to get word
to him that his story is accurate, but this administration is vindictive and
I would like to leave the Navy with my rank and

Low expectations for Sharm summit
By Janine Zacharia and Lamia Lahoud


JERUSALEM (October 15) - Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian Authority
Chairman Yasser Arafat will meet US President Bill Clinton, Egyptian
President Hosni Mubarak, and other world leaders in Sharm e-Sheikh tomorrow
in an effort to end clashes that have raged for more than two weeks, killing
scores.

The leaders agreed to meet as Israelis and Palestinians yesterday largely
took a breather from fighting, with few skirmishes and casualties reported.

Barak and Arafat agreed to attend the summit after a weekend of shuttle
diplomacy by UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan and intensive prodding by
Clinton. Annan said both leaders had dropped preconditions for the meeting,
whose limited goal is to reach a cease-fire agreement and restore some sort
of joint Israeli-Palestinian security mechanism.

Barak reportedly has low expectations for the summit and only agreed to
attend at Clinton's request.

"Our main target is to reach an immediate truce," UN special peace envoy
Terje Larsen told The Jerusalem Post.

PA Planning Minister Nabil Shaath said the Palestinians agreed to attend the
summit after Annan assured them that Barak would allow medical supplies and
food to enter the Palestinian areas, which have been sealed off by Israeli
forces, and would pull Israeli forces back to their original positions.

But another senior PA official, who declined to be identified, said that
international pressure from all sides from the US, UN, Russia, and the EU led
to the breakthrough.

PA officials say Arafat, who traveled to Egypt yesterday to consult with
Mubarak, was reluctant to attend such a reconciliation meeting with Israel
ahead of the first Arab summit in 11 years, scheduled to take place in Cairo
this coming Saturday. Arafat hopes there to solidify Arab backing for
Palestinian demands of sovereignty over east Jerusalem, including the Temple
Mount, something he failed to do in a whirlwind tour of Arab capitals
following the collapse of the July Camp David summit.

Clinton was concerned that wider military confrontations could erupt if the
Arab summit preceded a cease-fire agreement.

The US president, who has labored intensively throughout his term to strike
an historic peace deal, would also like to use the meeting to set a time
frame for resuming final-status negotiations, but officials and analysts say
the trust necessary for such talks has completely eroded.

Pressure on Barak from potential coalition mates like Likud leader Ariel
Sharon to reject a new round of talks, and Arafat's desire to maintain some
friction with Israel at least until the Arab summit, also make a declaration
of a resumption of peace negotiations unlikely.

"Our central objectives must now be to stop the violence, to restore calm and
safety, to agree on a fact-finding mechanism concerning how this began and
how it can be prevented from occurring again, and to find a way back to
dialogue and negotiations," Clinton told reporters in Washington yesterday.

Clinton, who was burned three times in recent peacemaking summit efforts - at
Geneva, Camp David, and Paris - warned that there is no guarantee of success.

"We should be under no illusions. The good news is the parties have agreed to
meet and the situation appears to be calmer. But the path ahead is difficult.
After the terrible events of the last few days, the situation is quite tense.
But President Mubarak and I are convinced that we must make every effort to
break the cycle of violence."

Israeli and US officials warned last night that a new round of violence today
or a surprise development could torpedo the summit plans.

Clinton called for both sides to "do all in their power to cease hostilities
and halt the violence,"in the two days leading up to the summit.

Speaking later in Denver, Clinton asked for the "prayers" of the American
public as leaders "attempt to try to put things back together" in Sharm
e-Sheikh.

The most worrisome unknown for the US is whether Arafat will agree to a
cease-fire agreement drafted in Paris and endorsed by Israel, which calls for
a US-led commission to examine the events of the last two weeks and make
recommendations to the UN secretary-general. The body, however, would not be
authorized to condemn or initiate proceedings against either side.

Palestinian officials say privately that Arafat has dropped his demand for a
UN-appointed international commission of inquiry.

But Shaath said Arafat agreed to the summit "to end all Israeli hostilities
against the Palestinians and form an international investigation committee,"
without specifying what kind. Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat told
CNN the Palestinians also wanted assurances "that Israel will never repeat
what it did with the missiles, and choppers, and tanks." In return, Justice
Minister Yossi Beilin said Israel would

War  Peace in the Middle East: An Exclusive Interview with Prime Minister
Barak
Ehud Barak, the Prime Minister of Israel, spoke with TIME's Lisa Beyer about
the forthcoming peace talks and the turbulent events of the past few days
that have led the Middle East to the brink of war
 Prime Minister Barak at a press conference in Tel Aviv on Oct. 12



Two days ago Israeli attack helicopters bombed installations of the
Palestinian Authority in retaliation for the lynching of two Israeli army
reservists who accidentally drove into the West Bank city of Ramallah.
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak spoke with TIME Senior Writer Lisa Beyer by
phone about the events and their ramifications. He spoke from his home in
Kochav Yair, north of Tel Aviv, Saturday evening local time.

TIME: Given the commitment and political capital you've devoted to pursuing
peace with the Palestinians, it must have been a difficult or at least bitter
decision to attack facilities of the Palestinian Authority.

Barak: It was somehow frustrating, but I cannot say that it was not part of
the possible results. I've said from the very first day in late July last
year that within fifteen months I believe we will know whether we have or do
not have a partner for peace here. I promised that we will leave no stone
unturned in order to find a partner, but I emphasized that it takes two to
tango. And in a way, I've done exactly this. And now I should tell you that
with the same determination that we looked for a partner and for a
reasonable, honest peace of the brave, we will struggle if Chairman Arafat
and the Palestinian Authority will try to impose their own will upon us
through the use of violence. We are a tough and small people that wants peace
but is ready to fight if necessary.

TIME: This particular decision to go after Palestinian Authority targets, was
it a simple decision for you?

Barak: No, it was not simple, but I ordered it after a lot of deliberations.
It takes two to make peace and only one to impose confrontation. Arafat,
breaking all the agreements that he signed, initiated and launched this
violence, sending innocent, incited citizens together with policemen and
Tanzim people and kids 10 years old to assault our isolated positions. He
released terrorists of the Hamas that should be according to the agreement
behind bars and invited the (Hamas) leadership to his cabinet meeting in
Gaza. By this, he gave a green light for violence. If you look a the TV
footage from the coverage of preaches at the mosque, it's devastating. It's
like living in the fourteenth century, I don't know, troubled Italy, or
during religious wars in western Europe 300 years ago. It's unbelievable. We
have to take responsibility for our people. And since the P.A. is the source
of these orders and the source of this violence, we had to attack their
infrastructure. But let me tell you, Lisa, we deliberately made it in a way
that in all the five attacks of Thursday afternoon, we did not kill a single
Palestinian. We shot warning shots outside in the backyard or outside the
installations so that everyone will be able to go out. We watched by remote
control vehicles, drones, the going out of these people. And we didn't shoot
to destroy it before it became clear that no one was there. We made this
effort in order to emphasize our feeling that Arafat is responsible but that
somehow he uses the blood of his own people as lubrication for calling upon
the attention and the support of the world. That is cyncical, opportunistic
behavior that should be condemned by any honest leaders in the world.

TIME: The Americans, though, have blamed both you and the Palestinians.
They've called on both sides to stop the bloodshed. On Thursday they called
on you specifically to end the army actions. What do you say to that?

Barak: I think that we are acting out of self defense. We do not initiate.
Arafat can put an end to it in 12 hours. We do not agree with this kind of
condemnation, not by the U.N. Security Council and not by the United States.
We are still working to convince open-minded leaders all around the world
that in spite of the sensitivity to the Arab positions, to the oil prices, to
the sensitivites of other interests — every country has its interests in the
Arab world, there is a need for leadership that will be able to stand firm
even against certain challenges. You know, I cannot criticize any other
leader, but I know that we are all in the same boat. And if the free world
and the community of democracies will not be able to stand firm against the
tacit blackmail that is projected at us by different unstable regimes of the
Third World where terrorist groups are operating, it will create more pain
and more suffering for the free world, not less. There is always a temption
not to stand at certain moments in order to save what will come immediately
after. But in the

WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS
A cornerstone
for 3rd Temple?
As tensions rise in Mideast, Jews
set to begin symbolic rebuilding

--

--

By Julie Foster

As violence in the Middle East escalates, an Israeli group plans a symbolic
effort to begin building the Third Temple of Israel tomorrow in Jerusalem --
a move the Arab-American community calls a "very grave provocation."

In biblical times, the people of Israel worshipped at the temple in Jerusalem
-- the hub of Jewish activity. After Israel's enemies destroyed the temple,
it was rebuilt only to be destroyed again in 70 A.D. by the Roman Empire. The
Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement announced its plans Friday
to lay a cornerstone to the Third Temple in an anointing ceremony.

The event poses a threat to Muslims, as the site of the new temple, the
Temple Mount, is also the location of the Dome of the Rock -- a Muslim
mosque.

In its "Vision of Redemption," the Temple Mount Faithful Movement states its
belief that the creation of the modern state of Israel is "the beginning of
the redemption of the world," which is completed with the building of the
Third Temple.

Led by Gershon Salomon, the movement explains its reasons for the timing of
the plan to rebuild the historic Jewish Temple.

"Two and one-half millennia ago, the Hebrew prophets spoke that in the 'last
days' G-d would regather His people from all the lands where He had scattered
them," states the group's website. "For the last 100 years the Jewish people
have been returning to and rebuilding Zion. Today Israel is again the dynamic
center of Jewish life across the world. The regathering is not yet complete.
Ezekiel prophesied that G-d would 'leave none of them there any longer.'"

In the Jewish faith, the name of God is so holy that it is never spelled out
in its entirety. "It is the view of the Temple Mount and Land of Israel
Faithful that the redemption will proceed in an orderly fashion according to
G-d's plan," the statement continues.

The group plans to anoint a four-and-a-half ton marble cornerstone, which
will be covered with Israeli flags and driven to the Temple Mount on a
flatbed truck. Participants will also bring "reconstructed vessels for the
Third Temple, a priest in the original garments, and Levites who will play
music," recreating historical temple activities.

According to a statement by the Temple Mount Faithful, "The event has the
approval of the Israeli authorities and will be protected by the Israel
security forces."

Reaction by the Arab-American community to the scheduled event is strong. In
a letter sent Friday to U.S. Secretary of State Madeline Albright, the
American Committee on Jerusalem warned against the "explosive consequence of
such an act."

"We urge the United States government to ensure that the government of Israel
takes all necessary actions to prevent such a blatant provocation,
particularly in view of its failure to do so two weeks ago," when the current
Middle East conflict erupted.

Written by ACJ President Rashid Khalidi, the letter conludes, "ACJ stresses
with the utmost urgency the importance of the U.S. government taking this
matter up immediately with the government of Israel."

The Temple Mount Faithful attempted to lay the cornerstone of the Third
Temple more than a year ago but was prevented from doing so by the Israeli
government due to the potential for further violence. Some Israelis believe
that to begin full-scale construction of the temple, the Dome of the Rock
must first be torn down. Others believe the Temple can be built adjacent to
the Muslim shrine.

"This effort to go and actually attack the mosque is a very, very grave
provocation," said Ali Abunimah, vice president of the Arab-American Action
Network, who called the Temple Mount Faithful an "extremist group." "Israel
will be solely responsible for any provocation and any consequences," he
added.

But Salomon's movement is determined to go through with the ceremony. "G-d is
ready for this and He expects Israel to re-liberate the Temple Mount from the
pagan Arab worshippers and to rebuild His house to again be the heart, soul
and focus of Israel and all the nations," Salomon wrote. "The Temple Mount
and Land of Israel Faithful Movement has decided to wait no more and to bring
the G-d of Israel back to His rebuilt house ..."

-Caveat Lector-

   On Friday, October 20, from 8:00 to 9:30 p.m. Eastern time,
   Judicial Watch will host a nationally televised presidential
   debate featuring six of the seven qualified presidential
   candidates. John Hagelin, Al Gore, Ralph Nader, Pat Buchanan,
   Harry Browne, and Howard Phillips have all accepted--only
   George W. Bush has declined.

   C-SPAN has committed to televising the debate, and Fox TV and
   American Voice Radio are considering coverage. The debate
   will be moderated by a highly respected journalist, and the
   panel will be composed of other journalists from well-known
   national newspapers--both liberal and conservative.

   Seven lecterns will be set up on stage--no matter who attends
   the debate. Each candidate will give an opening and closing
   statement and will be asked questions by the panel in rotating
   order.

   The questions, while not set in advance, will reflect Judicial
   Watch concerns about ethics in politics--bribery laws, corporate
   control of government, independent counsel issues, etc.

   About 600 people have been invited to the debate and to a
   reception immediately following, including over 30 Ambassadors

Kerr briefed on CIA threat to Whitlam
http://theage.com.au/news/20001015/A51154-2000Oct14.html

EXCLUSIVE: THE NATIONAL LIBRARY TAPES

By ANDREW CLARK
Sunday 15 October 2000

The first evidence of possible CIA involvement in the dismissal of the
Whitlam government in 1975 has been revealed by the defence minister at the
time, Bill Morrison.

The American intelligence connection is linked to a crucial meeting called
by the Governor-General, John Kerr, a few days before he sacked Prime
Minister Gough Whitlam.

Sir John sought and received a high-level briefing from senior defence
officials on a CIA threat to withdraw intelligence cooperation from
Australia, according to Mr Morrison in an interview with The Sunday Age.

Speaking at his home in Sydney's southern suburbs, Mr Morrison, a career
diplomat before entering parliament and a former Australian ambassador to
Indonesia, said: "Kerr loved the cloak and dagger. I don't think (the
briefing on the CIA threat) was decisive, but I think it reinforced his
position (about sacking the Whitlam government).

"The CIA was pissed off because their cover as far as Pine Gap was concerned
was blown. Kerr could say that as Commander-in-Chief (a formal position the
Governor-General holds under the constitution) he could take briefings from
Defence," Mr Morrison told The Sunday Age.

Mr Morrison's revelation - 25 years after Australia's greatest
constitutional crisis - underlines the significance that Sir John, who had
an intelligence background, attached to the CIA threat.

It has previously been reported that three days before the sacking Sir John
was briefed on security issues by the Defence Department, but the CIA threat
and the Pine Gap furore have never before been identified as part of the
briefing.

The US Government has officially denied any involvement in the dismissal of
the Whitlam government. Sir John sacked Mr Whitlam on November 11, 1975, and
appointed Opposition Leader Malcolm Fraser caretaker prime minister on the
condition that he called an immediate election.

The CIA threat was made after Mr Whitlam revealed that the American spy
agency ran Pine Gap, the powerful satellite-tracking station in central
Australia that played a crucial role in America's Cold War readiness for a
nuclear conflict with the Soviet Union or China.

Pine Gap was used to eavesdrop on military movements in China, the Soviet
Union and parts of Europe. Its crucial significance to the US military
remains today, even though the Cold War has ended.

In a cable sent to ASIO on November 8, 1975, the CIA said: "They (the CIA)
feel that if this problem cannot be solved they do not see how our mutually
beneficial relationships (with Australian intelligence agencies) are going
to continue."

On the 25th anniversary of the opposition's decision to block supply, a
Sunday Age investigation of the dismissal, which has accessed special
tape-recorded interviews made by key figures for the oral history section of
the National Library, also reveals how close Australia came to a breakdown
in the system.

The investigation shows that:

Gough Whitlam, when he returned to parliament after being sacked, asked
defence minister Bill Morrison: "Who's got the army?"

Former Liberal Party leader, the late Billy Snedden, said Australia came
close to an insurrection. Crises "don't come bigger than that without a few
shots", he said.

The Labor government's upper house leader, Ken Wriedt, said that he had "no
doubt" that the caretaker government led by Mr Fraser would, "if need be",
have called in the army.

The late Clarrie Harders, a former head of the Attorney-General's
Department, revealed that less than three hours after he had dismissed Mr
Whitlam, Sir John rang him up to discuss the latest parliamentary
manoeuvres. "Looking back," Mr Harders sensed "a desire by Kerr to seek
protection in the circumstances he had been faced with and to endeavor to
enlist others in supporting the action that he had taken."

Mr Snedden said that only days after the dismissal he was "sickened" and
"ashamed" at a drunken display by Sir John when he was Sir Robert Menzies'
guest at a dinner of the Melbourne Scots at Leonda, in Hawthorn.

Mr Fraser confirmed earlier reports that Sir John raised the issue of the
conditions under which Mr Fraser could agree to be a caretaker prime
minister in a telephone call with him at 10.15am on November 11, nearly
three hours before Sir John sacked Mr Whitlam.

The claimed involvement of the CIA in Mr Whitlam's dismissal comes against a
backdrop of traditional distrust of the ALP by the US during the Cold War.

This distrust dates back to World War II, when H.V. Evatt was foreign
minister and the sensational proceedings of the Petrov royal commission,
which investigated Soviet espionage in Australia, implicated members of Dr
Evatt's staff.

The US State Department has formally

THE SWISS CANNABIS REPORT v1.05
Copyright By Mike Braben - May-September 2000
(Do not redistribute without author's permission)

The following article was written in the hope of shedding some light on the
controversial situation surrounding Marijuana / Cannabis here in
Switzerland. Many things have been said during the last months, most
unfortunately grossly inaccurate.

I hope my views will be somewhat more balanced in that I have worked for
one of Switzerland's most respected Cannabis retailers. Unfortunately I'm
not in able to name my previous employer, in part due to a pending criminal
investigation against him. It is my hope that this report will do be as
objective and informative as possible. Please note that English is not my
primary language and that I do not pretend to be a skilled writer


CHAPTER I - The Beginnings

Recently there has been talk that Cannabis has been legalized in
Switzerland. This is incorrect in that - technically speaking - Cannabis
has always been completely legal in this country.

The Swiss Cannabis market started to emerge about 10 years ago when the
first pioneers noticed how our Federal narcotics law is formulated. I
decided to reproduce the four most relevant Articles in their original
language (German)below and comment on their respective significance.
Needless to say that I will focus only on the Cannabis related parts and
that my translation is not guaranteed to be legally fully accurate.

1. Kapitel : Allgemeine Bestimmungen Art. 1 1 Betäubungsmittel im Sinne
dieses Gesetzes sind abhängigkeitserzeugende Stoffe und Präparate der
Wirkungstypen Morphin, Kokain, Cannabis.

Zu den Betäubungsmitteln im Sinne von Absatz 1 gehören insbesondere: a.
Rohmaterialien 1. Opium, 2. Mohnstroh, das zur Herstellung von Stoffen oder
Präparaten dient, die unter die Gruppen b 1, c oder d dieses Absatzes
fallen, 3. Kokablatt, 4. Hanfkraut; b. Wirkstoffe 1. die
Phenantren-Alkaloide des Opiums sowie ihre Derivate und Salze, die zur
Abhängigkeit (Toxikomanie) führen, 2. Ekgonin sowie seine Derivate und
Salze, die zur Abhängigkeit führen, 3. das Harz der Drüsenhaare des
Hanfkrautes; c. Weitere Stoffe, die eine ähnliche Wirkung haben wie die
Stoffe der Gruppen a oder b dieses Absatzes;


Chapter 1, Article 1 is called "General Statements", and defines what a
"narcotic" means to this law and lists the raw materials used in the
production of the major narcotics. These raw materials are: Opium, poppy
straw for the production of narcotics, Coca leaf, Hemp and the Phenantrene
alkaloids of Opium, Ecgonin, the resin of the glandular trichomes of
Cannabis as well as other compounds having a similar effect (!).

All of the above are strictly regulated and the Hemp plant is mentioned in
the same category of raw opium, apparently making it strictly illegal.
However the document doesn't end here, the next relevant part being Article 8:

Art. 8 1 Die folgenden Betäubungsmittel dürfen nicht angebaut, eingeführt,
hergestellt oder in Verkehr gebracht werden: a. Rauchopium und die bei
seiner Herstellung oder seinem Gebrauch entstehen-den Rückstände; b.
Diazetylmorphin und seine Salze; c. Halluzinogene wie Lysergid (LSD 25); d.
Hanfkraut zur Betäubungsmittelgewinnung und das Harz seiner Drüsenhaare
(Haschisch).


"Art.8 - The following narcotics can't be cultivated, imported, produced or
sold: a) smokable Opium and the residues created by it's production or use;
b) Diacetylmorphine (aka Heroin) and it's salts; c) Hallucinogens like
Lysergid (LSD 25); d) Hemp for the production of narcotics and the resin of
it's glandular trichomes (Haschisch)."

While Hemp is mentioned again in Article 8 - a very important article - it
is explicitly stated that this applies only to hemp for the production of
narcotics! Haschisch on the other hand is illegal in itself, regardless of
the intended use. That should mean that all Cannabis which is not intended
for the production of narcotics can be freely purchased, sold and possessed
since it is quite evidently not regulated.

4. Kapitel: Strafbestimmungen Art. 19 47 1. Wer unbefugt alkaloidhaltige
Pflanzen oder Hanfkraut zur Gewinnung von Be-täubungsmitteln anbaut, wer
unbefugt Betäubungsmittel herstellt, auszieht, umwandelt oder verarbeitet,
wer sie unbefugt lagert, versendet, befördert, einführt, ausführt oder

besitzt, aufbewahrt, kauft oder sonstwie erlangt, wer hiezu Anstalten
trifft, wer den unerlaubten Verkehr mit Betäubungsmitteln finanziert oder

auffordert oder öffentlich Gelegenheit zum Erwerb oder Konsum von

Ha'aretz: Front units to get video cameras

By Amos Harel Ha'aretz Military Correspondent Ha'aretz 15 October 2000

The Israel Defense Forces will equip front-line units with video cameras, to
show the world the Israeli viewpoint. The IDF Spokesman, Brigadier General
Ron Kitri, said yesterday in an interview to Channel 2's "Media File," that
the decision was made only recently, and will be implemented soon. The
footage will be distributed to the Israeli and foreign media, he said.

The IDF maintains that clashes in the occupied territories, in which Israeli
soldiers are often under gunfire, are not documented well enough. As a
result, the general picture in the media is that of soldiers, tanks and
helicopters fighting stone-throwers. Since the PA instructed the Palestinian
TV camera crews not to videotape the Tanzim militia shooting at riots, and
instructed that all shooting be limited to after dark, the image received is
reminiscent of the Intifada, and problematic for Israel's public relations.

Ideas similar to that of Brig. Gen. Kitri were suggested during the
Intifada, but were never approved for implementation.

Ya Gotta Wonder

Special to TLE

Sometimes ya gotta wonder

I had the misfortune to suffer a truck breakdown recently. I was
temporarily stranded in an "economically disadvantaged" area while
I waited for a friend to arrive with the parts required for the repair.

I had a few encounters while I was there, the first of which occurred
when I was newly arrived on the scene at about two o'clock in the
morning. While I was on the phone with my friend, three rowdies
came up to me yelling, and generally acting in a belligerent
manner. My friend could hear them, and asked if I was in trouble. I
told him it was possible that I was about to mugged, but that it
seemed unlikely they'd succeed, while staring down the rowdies.

At that point, my "accosters" apparently took in my general, non-
terrified demeanor, large multi-pocketed vest (which is very
nearly the official uniform for concealed carry), and partially
concealed hand grasping something under the vest at my hip.

They left abruptly. Maybe I should send Lott another report of a
crime prevented without firing a shot. Or maybe not. After all,
nothing really happened.

I didn't really have any more trouble for the entire seventeen hours
I was there. Quite the contrary. While waiting to use the phone, or
otherwise killing time, I was engaged in several friendly
conversations with the locals. You know, the sort of thing that isn't
supposed to happen to a white guy in the slums, if you believe
stereotypes that deny that most people are just ... people.

Around lunch time I walked into a little cafe across the street,
where I chatted pleasantly with the folks working there while I
ordered and ate a meal. And even though it was set up as more of a
fast food joint, the cashier even brought my food to my table, and
came back to refill my glass of tea. Nice folks.

Most of the day was like that; generally pretty good, despite a
breakdown that cost seventy-five bucks to fix. People walking by,
saying hello, smiling, wondering about my trouble.

So what's my point?

Well, I did have another "visitor" while I was stuck there. A cop.

I was over by the payphone about to call my friend for an update,
when a patrol car pulled into the parking lot and slowly circled my
truck. It stopped, and American Ninja carefully exited his vehicle:
BDU pants, black. Shirt, black. Tactical load-bearing vest, black.
Black equipment belt with gun, OC spray, asp baton, cuffs, and
enough mag pouches to supply the allied forces in Desert Storm.
Combat boots, black; at least they weren't jackboots. As he slowly
approached my truck, his head maintained a constant scan of his
surroundings. His hand was on his gun. Careful is one thing; but
this was behavior more suited to a soldier behind enemy lines than
a public servant in his own community.

Given his apparent paranoia level, I approached him pretty damned
cautiously myself, announcing myself so's not to startle him
into anything unpleasantly fatal (to me). He didn't quite draw
his sidearm.

We spoke. I explained my difficulty, and that parts were on the way.
He barely made eye contact as he continued to visually sweep the
area. Then he told me that I should get towed out of the
neighborhood, as soon as possible, don't wait for repairs, because
"This area is dangerous". Eventually he left, still looking
like a soldier listening for the whistle of incoming mortar fire.

Ya gotta wonder

Aside from the three stooges at the beginning of my odyssey, no
one in the area gave me any trouble. To the contrary; people
chatted with me, exchanged jokes. I got some of the best cafe
service that I've seen in months. I was even offering to share coffee
(one of the advantages of keeping all that camping gear in the
truck) with folks waiting for the bus.

But the obviously nervous cop told me, "This area is
 dangerous".

I encountered three clowns with better sense than to mess with me
and a whole lot of friendly people.

That cop looked like he was expecting Viet Cong on night patrol.

Ya gotta wonder

What did that cop see or know that I didn't?

Or, more to the point... Why did he see something different?

Ya gotta wonder

Did the people react to me in a friendly manner because I came
across as an ordinary Joe, no threat? If so, were they simply
reacting to the psyched-up, blackshirted stormtrooper...
appropriately?  Spooner knows, the guy made me nervous; and he
was supposedly helping me.

Ya gotta wonder

I found it inconvenient to be stuck there; but to the municipal
soldier it was dangerous.

Ya gotta wonder

I treated people decently, and was treated the same way in turn.
The cop seemed to consider them the enemy... and thinks the
area is dangerous.

Ya gotta wonder if black-garbed thugs are really the best way to
keep the peace in our communities.

Ya gotta wonder why the cities think they *want* stormtroopers, if

[CTRL] Fwd: [CIA-DRUGS] drug war review-Feb. 2000

2000-10-15 Thread Kris Millegan





Hi all,
Although this review is now a bit dated, having been published back in
Feb. 2000, the book "Drug War," by Dan Russell, is now available, and can be
purchased at Russell's site, as well as through other on-line book-shopping
sites, such as Amazon, (and www.copvcia.com, the rather large site of
CIA-intelligence-narcotics tracking and research of Mike Ruppert's), so I do
urge you to check it out. You will not be disappointed.

http://www.hightimes.com/News/2000_02/drugwar.tpl
Drug War: Covert Money, Power And Policy
FILED 02/02/00

'Prohibition is, as it has always been, a fascist protection racket.'


There is a war going on in this country, and it is being fought against
American citizens by American citizens. Prisons are being built at breakneck
speed, Americans are receiving mandatory sentences for victimless,
non-violent crimes, and the airwaves are full of propaganda and lies,
primarily to justify these repressive policies of the military-industrial-law
enforcement combine.


THE ETERNAL INQUISITION

These are points well covered by Dan Russel in his new book, DRUG WAR--COVERT
MONEY, POWER AND POLICY. Written in an easy-to-read, flowing style that is
entertaining, amazingly detailed, concise and to the point, DRUG WAR covers
one hell of a lot of ground. With a 16-page bibliography, and copious
footnotes, this is a very in-depth look at the orgins, and the current state
of affairs, the whys and wherefores of War on Drugs.

Brutality Bred Into The Bone
Beginning with the first official arrival of Medieval Europeans on these
shores, and the decimation of the indigenous cultures here, Russel takes the
reader on a tour de force of inhuman greed and oppression, perpetrated to
this day on American citizens, targeting minorities, the poor, and the sick.

"What the fascist structure wants is the militarization of global industrial
culture," explains Russel in a chapter-essay titled "The Active Enemy:" "a
stranglehold on policy and wealth, absolute control of the industrial
machinery. 'Drug interdiction' is a necessary adjunct to this. It's a way of
stealing tribal lands by criminalizing tribal sacraments--a way of
criminalizing the culture itself, and a way of organizing the sports fans
behind the patriotic campesino-stomping. And it's a way of attacking
America's poor for being poor, a way of attacking the painkiller rather than
the pain. It's a way of channeling all the cash needed to do something about
the structural poverty into the military-police complex."

A few paragraphs later he writes, "Drug Prohibition has made the illegal drug
trade the economic, and political, basis of military power throughout much of
the world. It is the most significant policy disaster in American history, as
a loss of control of CIA covert operations is the most significant structural
disaster. Together they are the major tools of military fascism today. By
artificially exploding street violence, Prohibition effectively diverts the
culture's political eye, and wealth, from structural poverty, industrial
ecocide, industrial oligarchy, and confiscatory taxation. Prohibition is, as
it has always been, a fascist protection racket."

Russel's DRUG WAR follows in the footsteps of those select few books, such as
THE POLITICS OF HEROIN: CIA Complicity in the Global Drug Trade, by Alfred
McCoy, and WHITEOUT: CIA Drugs and the Press, by Cockburn and St. Clair, that
lay open the deceit and duplicity of the power structure and its social
strategies in terms of the drug war.

Covering such diverse angles as the Kennedy assassination, the CIA and its
cornucopia of nefarious misdoings like the MK-ULTRA assassination and
mind-control experiments, its cocaine and arms-supply networks, its funding
of terrorist organizations, all the way to the struggles of assorted tribal
peoples around the world who are adversely affected by this country's fascist
policies, on into the medical aspects of this war, Russel goes into detail
about how the Drug War is splitting this country apart.

Hi! We're The American Inquisition!
Besides the obvious money-making going on, Russel also focuses on the
classically pharaco-phobic, anti- shamanic aspects of the mindset behind
Prohibition, and how this makes it that much easier for the power structure
to foist its Drug War on the rest of us. Using age-old tactics, and even
terminology, those responsible for this war are still waging an
"inquisition," which though modern, has not changed much since the
witch-burning eras of medieval Europe.

"The Drug War is a propaganda-fed neurotic repeat of the medieval
Inquisition," Russell charges. "I don't mean that metaphorically. The most
common evidentiary bust of the medieval Inquisition was 'the possession of
prohibited substances.' In fact, the legal phrase 'prohibited substance' can
be found in the MALLEUS MALEFICARUM of 1484, in relation to the 'witches'
medicines' of the curanderas. 'Possession,' one of the premier indicia of
'witchcraft,' was the most

Judge Lenient With Perjurer, Cites Clinton Case
By Guillermo Contreras
Journal Staff Writer
Copyright 2000 Albuquerque Journal
   Chief U.S. District Judge James A. Parker told prosecutors last
week that it was unfair of them to ask for a strict prison sentence in
a New Mexico perjury case, pointing out that President Clinton
recently asked for leniency for lying under oath.
   Parker said other factors warranted the sentence he imposed,
but that Clinton's pleadings were somewhat "icing on the cake."
   Parker said it seemed "terribly unfair" that the U.S. Department
of Justice was trying to "pillorize" Ruben Renteria Sr. when Clinton,
for similar or more "egregious" conduct, was asking for leniency.
   Clinton was found in contempt of court in the Paula Jones sexual
harassment case for lying about his affair with White House intern
Monica Lewinsky.
   Just last month, Parker issued a stinging rebuke of the Clinton
administration's prosecution of Wen Ho Lee, who was convicted on
one count of mishandling government nuclear-weapon secrets.
   According to newspaper stories, Clinton told an Arkansas judge
in late August that losing his law license was too harsh a penalty
for lying under oath in the Paula Jones case.
   U.S. District Judge Susan Webber Wright found Clinton in
contempt, fined him $90,000 and referred the case to the Arkansas
Supreme Court Committee on Professional Conduct. The
committee in turn has recommended that Clinton be disbarred.
   Parker has declined comment on the Renteria case, saying he
intends to issue a written opinion.
   The Renteria case resulted from a drug-smuggling investigation in
the early 1990s. Renteria, 49, was acquitted of drug-conspiracy
charges after spending 324 days in jail awaiting trial.
   However, prosecutors later charged Renteria with perjury after he
denied signing a consent form that gave investigators permission to
search his property in Deming.
   Renteria was convicted of one count of perjury, and Parker
sentenced him in 1996 to 15 months in prison and two years of
supervised release.
   Prosecutors argued at the time that Renteria should be
sentenced to 60 months in prison.
   Renteria appealed his perjury conviction to the U.S. 10th Circuit
Court of Appeals in Denver, and the government appealed the
sentence.
   The appeals court in 1998 affirmed Renteria's conviction but
threw out the sentence because Parker followed an incorrect
sentencing guideline.
   The 10th Circuit directed Parker to hold a hearing to resentence
Renteria.
   In May 1999, Parker determined that the appropriate guideline
term of imprisonment was 60 months but noted there were several
criteria that could lower that sentencing range.
   A spirited legal battle ensued over what sentencing criteria
applied. Renteria's attorney, Assistant Federal Public Defender
Joseph Gandert, argued in one court filing that the government was
being too severe on Renteria when it failed to prosecute FBI agent
Robert Messemer, who acknowledged that he had made
"inadvertent" errors while testifying in the Wen Ho Lee case.
   Prosecutors contend Parker suggested to Renteria at a hearing
Aug. 30 that he argue for a less-severe sentence than 60 months
based on Clinton's argument in the Paula Jones case.
   Gandert included the Clinton argument in a court motion, and at
a hearing on Oct. 4 Parker imposed a 15-month sentence again. At
that hearing, Parker determined the proper range for sentencing
was 15 to 21 months.
   Among the reasons for choosing that guideline, Parker said, was
that the government could not prove how much marijuana Renteria
allegedly smuggled, that Renteria had already served the original
1996 sentence and that he was doing well at a full-time job.
   Parker also gave Renteria credit for the 324 days he served while
awaiting trial on the drug-conspiracy charges.
   Assistant U.S. Attorney Jonathon Gerson vehemently opposed
lowering Renteria's sentence by anything more than the 324 days
of pretrial confinement.
   Gerson told Parker that it was "an abuse of this court's discretion
to rely in any way" on the proceedings involving the president.
   Parker said Clinton's pleadings are "icing on the cake" — adding
"weight" to the other reasons he chose to lessen Renteria's
sentence. But he said he would have made the same decision even
without taking Clinton into account.
   "I took it into account because I think it demonstrates how
terribly unfair it is for the president's Department of Justice to be
attempting to pillorize Mr. Renteria when the president, for similar
conduct, or what is probably more egregious conduct in terms of
its consequences, is claiming that the prospect of not being
allowed to practice as an attorney in Arkansas is too harsh,"
Parker said, according to transcripts of the Oct. 4 hearing.

A Call for Anti-Capitalist Direct Action in Cincinnati, OH, USA

http://www.n16.org

We are calling for Revolutionary Anti-Capitalist people to come to
Ohio and join us in opposing yet another undemocratic authoritarian
structure functioning quietly in peace this year. On November 16th
thru 18th the Trans-Atlantic Business Dialog (TABD) will hold their
annual CEO meetings in downtown Cincinnati. The TABD has positioned
itself as the executive vanguard of the World Trade Organization.
They represent the interests of the European Union and North America
in the process of the globalization of capitalism. These meetings will
bring more than 100 CEOs and top government officials together to
resolve trade "issues". This body represents the interests of the
white, first world, capitalist elite, and exists to impose their
collective will, not only the governments and capitalists of other
nations, but on the working peoples of the world as well. Anti-
capitalists of all backgrounds and philosophies must come together
to oppose these authoritarian and exploitive policies and procedures.
The TABD is yet another anti-democratic structure in the capitalist
elite's march toward unopposed world supremacy. Along with the WTO,
IMF, World Bank, UN, NATO, and NAFTA, the TABD is just one more
tool for reducing inter-capitalist conflict, allowing them to better
exploit the rest of us.

Many coalitions are calling for actions, rallies, marches, and teach-
ins during this latest undemocratic meeting to divide the world's
resources and the fruits of all people's labor for the benefit of an
elite few. Many of these actions will be legal, permitted, and
reformist. Others will be of a non-violent, civil disobedient nature.
But regardless of these various coalitions' stances on tactics, none
of their political statements represent our views or needs. For this
reason, we find it necessary to organize in solidarity with these
coalitions, but autonomously, on our own terms and with our own
explicitly anti-capitalist analysis.

We are not necessarily calling for any specific tactic aside from
revolutionaries visibly standing together against imperialism and
exploitation. We feel it is important that we stand apart from the
advocates of "fair" trade and green capitalism. Whether it is the TABD
or another global capitalist structure, our opposition is the same, we
stand with indigenous people and the working class the world over
against the facade of "improvements" on global capitalism; capitalism
cannot be improved, it must be destroyed. We stand for a bright future,
when the fruits of the world's labor are used for the needs of the
people that do the producing.

To that end we are against narrow economic nationalism. We refuse to
play the game of pitting the working peoples of one nation against the
working peoples of another, one state against another, or one eco-
system against another. Capital is globalized; the resistance of the
working class must be as well.

The first-world business leaders who comprise the TABD think they can
quietly meet in a very conservative midwestern city, plan, dine, drink,
play, and slip back to their palaces and offices. We aim to show them
that even here they will meet resistance. This is why we reach out to
anti-capitalist people of all ideological persuasions to join us in
our disruption of business as usual in Cincy.

We feel it is important as well to stand together with the rest

Kurzweil is one of the great inventors of our day. His web site tells us
he expects to see 20,000 years of scientific progress, in today's terms,
compressed into the next 100 chronological years. But my question is
how much of that 20,000 years will take place in public and how much will
take place in private. If the gap is too great, the results for the public
will be disastrous. To the technolords we will be less than peasant
masses. We will be like ants. So we heed the proverb to "observe the ant
to be wise".
   Ants are merciless creatures...much like the Trotskyite overlords who
keep the American masses dumbed down. The Trotskyites have their mouth
pieces like the Bushgore candidate for Trotskyite puppet du
jour. President Bushgore will continue to torture the unborn young of the
ant colony called America to death by the millions and he will continue to
perpetrate genocide-after-genocide in countries like Iraq. The employers
of Bushgore believe that they are far, far more than ants, ie that they
are "Alien Life Forms". Like ants, though, they are merciless
creatures. Isn't that what alien abduction cases tell you?
   UFO's (complete with bio-robotic operators) may well be the technology
of those Alien Life Forms who rule the American ant colony. Could it be
that people like Colonel Corso and Admiral Inman have been playing a role
which has never yet been recognized in military intelligence? Could they
be responsible for trying to spirit alien technology from the plutocrats
to the public? The Pentagon alone has a budget of $250 b./year. There are
~500 billionaire families on the planet. Do they have the resources to
develop Superhuman AI now? Most certainly. And maybe they have had it for
a long time. Maybe they are already several millennia ahead of the ants.
   Try to imagine what just a one millennium gap could do. Imagine one
tank brigade of today against the best army of 1,000 years ago. The tank
brigade would win without a single casualty. Perhaps those who own the
Bushgore Party, the pseudo-democracy and its bogus republican principles
are several millennia ahead of the ants already. If not, they will be
unless Superhuman AI reaches the public in time, because the plutocrats,
those Alien Life Forms among us now will either have Superhuman AI
soon...or have it already.

Arab populace demands
action against Israel

Arab rhetoric at Israel and the US is tinged with self-loathing over the
singular failure of Arab states to vindicate the cause of the Palestinians,
writes David Hirst
MIDDLE EAST: In his workshop in suburban Beirut, Raef Hammoudi has been more
than usually busy painting Israeli and US flags, so high is the demand from
people demonstrating in support of the new Palestinian intifada. He does them
on non-absorbent cloth just an hour or so before they are due for ritual
burning because, he says, "I can"t stand them in my shop and they disgust my
clients."

Lebanon, as the freest and politically most diverse of Arab countries, is the
most eloquent sounding-board of Arab and Muslim emotions. True to form, it was
the first to react to the Palestinian drama, with those twin villains, Israel
and US, more automatically linked than ever as the target of the demonstrators'
wrath.

But, this time, Lebanon has been far from alone. The protests sweeping the Arab
world these days are by far the most persistent and widespread for many a year,
even reminiscent, some say, of the 1950s and '60s, when President Nasser, the
pan-Arab champion, used to rouse the masses from the Gulf to the Atlantic.

In Egypt, university students have been staging daily protest marches and sit-
ins for nearly two weeks now. Some demonstrations, liked those in Baghdad, were
state-sponsored. But most, like one, of particular significance, in tightly-
controlled Syria, were spontaneous; last week 4,000 people stoned the heavily
fortified US embassy, scaled its walls and tore down its flag, chanting
"Jerusalem is ours", "Down with America, Down with Israel."

There have been demonstrations in Tunis, Sudan, Libya, Morocco, Yemen and
Jordan. But, most strikingly, the protest has also spread to the Gulf, where
there is little tradition of street protest. In Oman, a huge throng of students
at Sultan Qabous University shouted "with our souls and blood we shall redeem
you, al-Aqsa". They demanded the closure of the Israeli trade mission in their
country: and on Thursday the government obliged.

The protests reached even into Saudi Arabia, heartland of archconservative
authoritarianism; thousands burned Israeli and American flags in the streets of
Sakakah in the kingdom's remote north. In Kuwait, where popular anti-
Palestinian sentiment runs deep, Islamists led a march for Palestine.

There is often a religious flavour to the outrage, be it Muhammad Tantawi,
Sheikh of Cairo's al-Azhar University, decreeing - in the name of establishment
Islam - that "force must now be our only weapon to confront Israel", or the 55
personalities, from Malaysia to Morocco, who - in the name of militant,
fundamentalist Islam - have issued a joint declaration proclaiming that
Israel's arrogance would never have reached the dimension it did were it not
for "Arab submissiveness and willingness to give in, instead of pursuing the
path of the intifada, resistance and struggle to liberate every handspan of
Palestine." But conventional patriotism, instinctive fellow-feeling with
Palestinian compatriots, is very much present too.

It is renewed, dramatic testimony to the abiding centrality of Palestine in the
Arab psyche. Yet, though this has been the most impressive such outpouring of
solidarity for years, the fact is that the same thing has been seen, in one
form or another, time and time again. And, repeatedly, emotion has failed to
translate into serious action. Palestine may be a great rallying-cry, but, to
many Arabs, it is also a badge of shame, a prime symptom of weakness and
disarray, of the rottenness and corruption of an Arab world once again
reminded, by the spectacle of Palestinian youths dying in unequal combat, that,
for all its wealth, numbers and geographic immensity, it is quite unable to
check the excesses of the historic foe.

The anathemas heaped on Israel/America may be genuinely felt, but, beneath
them, lies another, perhaps more significant emotion: self-disgust, a profound
exasperation with this Arab impotence, and above all with regimes which are the
chief expression of it. That emotion has long been an intrinsic part of the
contemporary Arab condition: but it always breaks surface on occasions like
this, not so much in the demonstrations, as in the lamentations of the Arab
media.

The fate of Muhammad Durra, the 12-year-old boy shot to death on the world's
television screens, had a very special resonance. Like other obituarists,
Sawsang al-Shaer wrote in the Kuwaiti newspaper al-Watan that not just Israeli
soldiers, the Arabs themselves, had the child's blood on their hands. "Do you
remember", she asked, "TV footage of Israeli soldiers breaking the bones of
Palestinian youth during the intifada a few years back?

"Didn't we fume and revolt and threaten? What happened afterwards? Nothing.

GERMAN FOREIGN MINISTER CALLS FOR PERMANENT GERMAN TROOP OCCUPATION OF

(Berlin), AP, Oct. 11, 2000

German Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer, addressing Parliament on Wednesday,
expressed his opinion that Germany should not only provide material help to
Yugoslavia but that the Bundeswehr and non-military organizations should
establish a permanent presence there. He declared that this was a unique
chance to create a democracy in the context of further European unification.

Reunited Germany has a special responsibility for stabilizing democracy in
Serbia. Democracy, said Mr. Fischer, is the basis for a lasting peace in the
Balkans. But the priority is for the moment that the democratic changes be
carried out peacefully and that justice prevail. The Western Balkans is a
part of the European comprehensive responsibility.

It was truly correct at the time to stop Slobodan Milosevich's policy of
Greater Serbia and to engage oneself on the side of the democratic
opposition, says Joschka Fischer. Now the bloody murdering in the Balkans
can
be stopped. The Stability Pact has to be used, among other things, for the
clearing of the Danube. Also democratic culture has to be built up [in
Serbia] to make possible the normalization of relations between Germany and
Serbia. The first steps have been taken through the lifting of the oil and
the flight embargoes by the European Union. Now Serbia can be accompanied on
its route toward Europe. In the words of Fischer, all those who have made
themselves guilty of grave crimes have to be brought to justice.

German Domination Slated for Yugoslavia

Interview with Michel Chossudovsky, Professor of Economics, University of
Ottawa. Prof. Chossudovsky studies and writes about the effects of
International Monetary Fund/NATO penetration of countries in transition.

Interview conducted by Max Sinclair

Sinclair: Some supporters of Kostunica are arguing, or hoping, that somehow
he can maneuver around the United States because he has ties to Europe. That
Europe is getting away from US domination and wants to be independent.

Chossudovsky: I think they're very na?ve in that belief. Berlin and
Washington are working hand in hand in this situation. They coordinate their
respective foreign policy initiatives. Germany's secret service, the
Bbundesnachrichten Dienst (BND) collaborated closely with the CIA in the
various stages of the 78 day bombing of Yugoslavia, and also after the
bombing.

Everything indicates that what they want is to transform Yugoslavia into a
German protectorate with German troops (and the Deutschmark) stationed on
Yugoslav soil, within Germany's "lebensraum". This has been the fate of the
other former republics of Yugoslavia including Macedonia and Croatia.

In Montenegro and Kosovo the Deutschmark has been established as legal
tender. In Kosovo Germany's Commerzbank controls the entire commercial
banking system. At the same time it is the Washington Group, which is a US
Transnational linked up with the US defence industry, which controls the
Trepca mines in northern Kosovo.

The Americans and their British allies have their eyes on Central Asia; that
is the deal. The Caspian Sea basin and Central Asia are American territory.
BP-AMOCO and ARCO, the world's largest Anglo-American oil consortium, is the
major player in the Caspian oil fields. NATO's role, through GUUAM, the
NATO-sponsored military alliance in this area, is to protect the pipeline
routes from the Caucasus through the Balkans.

Germany is not an important player in the oil business. In return for the US
and Britain getting the Caspian Sea Basin and Central Asia, Germany gets the
Balkans and parts of Eastern Europe. The US and Germany seem to have agreed
on this division of territory and their respective spheres of influence.

Sinclair: So they are fully united?

Chossudovsky: United in some regards, divided in others. There is a major
split between Germany and the US in the defence industry. We see two
competing defence conglomerates. The powerful Deutsche Aerospace which is
part of Daimler is now allied with France's Aerospatiale Matra. In turn,
British Aerospace is integrated into the US military industrial complex. It
is in close relationship with major US

Not really. The Dome of the Rock is built on a church, which was built in
the Temple area. Pre 1948 Palestine was controlled by the Britts, and before
that the Ottoman Turks who were fairly liberal about religion in their empire.

Anyway, I was talking about recent times before 1967 when the Temple Mount
was in Arab hands. They let Christian tourists in, but the area was forbidden
to Jews.

Interesting item..Ehud Barak is an Ashke-nazi jew (European descent)
according to his biography.

In this item it shows where domestic jews, the real arab jews who are
brothers to the moslem arabs - it shows the domestic jews and arabs are
being discriminated against.

You see the slaughter in the streets - slaughter of the innocents - and
I am still reminded of the son of King Faisal - the King was later
murdered by black from Berkley - this young Prince stated the domestic
jew and arab got along fine and it was the European jew causing all the
problems.he must have meant, then the Ashkenazi jew, such as Ehud
Barak.

Barry Chomish might have a story to tell here - for he loved Rabin who
died with a song of peace in his suit jacket...too quickly Barak
seems to climb the ladder to success - but he still looks like KGB to
me.

Maybe of the Herr Kissinger type KGB, who was Code Name Bor - KGB Agent
who served two masters and now maybe three?

Anyway this story makes one wonderdoes Ashke-nazi equal Zionist?
I would think possible.

  Shas supporters say decision
to jail leader is discriminatory

By Naomi Segal

JERUSALEM, July 12 (JTA) — Charges of anti-Sephardi discrimination
were rampant in the crowd that gathered outside the Supreme Court
building on Wednesday.

The court upheld a lower court's bribery conviction of Aryeh Deri,
former political leader of the fervently Orthodox Shas Party, but
reduced his jail sentence from four years to three.

Shas supporters initially misunderstood the revision of the lower
court's verdict for a full acquittal, and broke out with cheers and
shofar-blowing.

This quickly changed into expressions of shock and disbelief as the
actual decision became clear.

Deri, who propelled Shas to become a powerful political force
representing mostly Sephardi Jews, avoided suggesting that the court
decision was anti-Sephardi — a claim he has made in the past.

But activists at the courthouse demonstrated no such restraint.

Calls of "Weizman" were heard in the crowd, as activists drew parallels
to prosecutors' decision not to press charges against Ezer Weizman, who
resigned as president this week, over cash gifts he accepted from a
millionaire friend while serving as a Knesset member and Cabinet
minister.

"The only difference is that Weizman is an Ashkenazi" Jew, one activist
shouted at the microphones of the radio and television journalists at
the crowded court building.
Deri, a former Cabinet minister is to begin serving his sentence Aug.
13.

He said that the judges' decision was "God's will," and that he would go
to jail "happily." But he added that he thought the justices had
"erred," and he did not understand how they drew their conclusions.

The high court found that Deri was guilty of accepting bribes during the
late 1980s and early 1990s, when he served as director general and later
as head of the Interior Ministry.

But in what commentators called a "technical" revision of the earlier
ruling by the Jerusalem District Court, the high court said Deri was
guilty of accepting $95,000 in bribes, not $155,000.

The justices also upheld the lower court's decision preventing Deri from
serving as a Cabinet minister until 10 years after he leaves jail.

Following Wednesday's ruling, Shas' spiritual leader, Rabbi Ovadia
Yosef, declared that Deri was innocent according to Torah law, and that
the Supreme Court judges were "evil."

Eli Yishai, who took over the political leadership of Shas after Deri
was forced to resign, called the ruling "difficult and painful."

So theft in office in Israel - and preferential treatment given to
Ashke-nazi Jews (of European descent).

In a sense every American pays taxes to the little State of Israel - we
even bought the little mosquito planes the Israelies used to blow up the
USS Liberty - killing 34 sailors, wounding 161 and while they lie on
deck wounded the Israelie planes napalmed and bombed this great ship the
USS Liberty for 45 minutes - they were to try to blame the Egyptians,
but got caught.

So now we have the USS Cole - and I wonder - and this item too I found
on the web gives more data re Israel and the numerous factions working
against each other - for instance, the assassins of Rabin - who were
they really?

So Remember the USS Liberty and the USS Cole and do not draw snap
conclusions as to what really happened - after all, Barak needed
something to happen to turn the USA against the Arabslike the USS
Liberty - only they got caught red handedthis ship was in
international waters.

One of the greatest tools of a "misinformation" artist is the "Racist"
label.  If someone attacks your platform and questions your motives
just call him a racist and the majority of his audience tunes out what
he has to say.  One of the masters of this are the "Jews".  Contrary
to the "public" line, the majority of the people that have "occupied"
Isreal are not real Jewish people.   Consider the following article
from Norio Hayakawa.
REBIRTH OF ISRAEL, JEWS AND "ANTI-SEMITISM"
Here is an interesting quote from Jack Bernstein from his short but
informative booklet entitled THE LIFE OF AN AMERICAN JEW (The Noontide
Press, 1991):
"It is important for us to understand that Jews are not one race of
people. There are two distinct groups of Jews in the world and they come
from two different areas of the world - the Sephardic Jews from the
Middle East and North Africa, and the Ashkenazi Jews come from Eastern
Europe.
The Sephardic is the oldest group and it is they, if any, who are the
Jews described in the Bible. They are blood relatives to the Arabs..-
the only difference between them is religion. The Ashkenazi Jews, who
now comprise 90% of the Jews in the world, had a rather strange
beginning. According to historians, many of them Jewish, the Ashkenazi
Jews came into existence about 1200 years ago. It happened this way:
At the eastern edge of Europe, there lived a tribe of people known as
the Khazars. About the year 740 A.D., the Khazar king and his court
decided they should adopt a religion for their people. So,
representatives of the three major religions, Christianity, Islam and
Judaism, were invited to present their religious doctrines.  The
Khazars chose Judaism, but it wasn't for religious reasons. If the
Khazars had chosen Islam, they would have angered the strong Christian
world. If the Khazars had chosen Christianity, they would have angered
the strong Islamic world. So, they played it safe: They chose Judaism.
It wasn't for religious reasons the Khazars chose Judaism; it was for
political reasons.
Sometime during the 13th Century, the Khazars were driven from their
land and they migrated westward with most of them settling in Poland and
Russia. These Khazars are now known as Ashkenazi Jews. Because these
Khazar (Ashkenazi) Jews merely chose Judaism, they are not really Jews:
at least not blood Jews. Throughout their history, these Polish and
Russian Ashkenazi Jews practiced communism / socialism and worked to
have their ideas implemented in these countries. By the late 1800s
significant numbers of these communist/socialist Jews were found in
Germany, the Balkans and eventually all over Europe.  Because of their
interference in the social and governmental affairs of Russia, they
became the target of persecution by the Czars. Because of this,
migration of these communist/socialist oriented Jews began. Some went to
Palestine; some went to Central and South America; and a large number of
them came to the U.S.
In 1897, the First Zionist Congress was held in Basel, Switzerland. At
this Congress, it was decided to work toward the establishment of a
Jewish state and a search for land on which to build the Jewish state
began. Great Britain offered the Zionists land in Africa.  This the
Zionists rejected they wanted Palestine!!  At the time, Palestine was
inhabited by a half a million Palestinian Arabs and a few Palestinian
Jews who are blood related and who had lived together rather peacefully
for centuries. (*This is why the term "Anti-Semitic", widely misused,
has no meaning. Literally, if one were to be an "Anti-Semite", it would
mean that he is against Jews, Saudi Arabians, Jordanians, Lebanese,
Syrians, Iraqi, etc. etc. because they are all Semitic peoples. The term

Compare story on USS Liberty attack.a lot of web about this ship but

Doubt a few camel drivers could get that close to this USS Cole - but
Israelie spies are being caught dressed in palestinian garb - snipers
murdering children and now the USS Cole - one could have concluded in
advance such an attack would soon be forthcoming for this seems to be an
old trick used by Israelies - like Remember the USS Liberty and 34 dead

As a taxpayer to Israel I protest my money being spent on Uzzies for

They Dare to Speak Out by Paul Findley

Part II
 
Chapter 6 (continued)
Legal Adviser's Report Becomes Top Secret
DURING this same period--the weeks immediately following the assault on
the Liberty, an assessment of the "lsraeli Preliminary Inquiry 1/67" was
prepared by Carl F. Salans, legal adviser to the secretary of state. It
was prepared for the consideration of Eugene Rostow. The report, kept
top secret until 1983 and apparently given only cursory examination by
Secretary of State Dean Rusk, examines the credibility of the Israeli
study and reveals as has no other single document the real attitude of
the U.S. government toward the Israeli attack on the USS Liberty. It was
a document too explosive to release.
Item by item, Salans demonstrated that the Israeli excuse could not be
believed. Preparing the report immediately after the attack, he relied
mainly on the limited information in Admiral Isaac Kidd's court of
inquiry file. He never heard Ennes, Golden, nor any of the principal
witnesses. He found enough there to discredit the Israeli document
thoroughly. The items Salans examined were the speed and direction of
the Liberty, aircraft surveillance, identification by Israeli aircraft,
identification by torpedo boats, flag and identification markings, and
time sequence of attacks. In each instance, eyewitness testimony or
known facts disputed the Israeli claims of innocent error.
For example, the Israeli report contended that the Liberty was traveling
at a speed of 28 to 30 knots, hence behaving suspiciously. Its actual
speed was five knots. Israeli reconnaissance aircraft claimed to have
carried out only two overflight missions, at 6:00 and 9:00 A.M. Aircraft
actually overflew the Liberty eight times, the first at 5:15A.M. and the
last at 12:45 P.M.
The Israeli report charged that the Liberty, after refusing to identify
itself, opened fire. Captain McGonagle testified that the only Signals
by the torpedo boats came from a distance of 2,000 yards when the attack
run was already launched and torpedoes on their way. The blinker signals
could not be read because of intermittent smoke and flames. Not seeing
them, the Liberty could not reply. Immediately thereafter it was hit by
a torpedo and 25 sailors died instantly.
The Israeli report contended that the Liberty did not display a flag or
identifying marks. Five crewmen testified that they saw the naval ensign
flying the entire morning and until the attack. When the flag was shot
away during the air attack, another larger flag was hoisted before the
torpedo onslaught began. Hull markings were clear and freshly painted.
The Israelis tried to shift responsibility by asserting that the attack
originated through reports that the coastal area was being shelled from
the sea. Salans said it should be clear to any trained observer that the
small guns aboard the Liberty were incapable of shore bombardment.
The Salans report was forwarded September 21, 1967, to Under Secretary
of State Rostow. This means that high officials of the administration
knew the falsity of Israeli claims about the Liberty soon after the
assault itself.
With a document in hand so thoroughly refuting the Israeli claims, the
next logical step obviously would be its presentation to the Israeli
government for comment, followed by publication of the findings.
Instead, it was stamped "top secret" and hidden from public view, as
well as the attention of other officials of our government and its
military services, along with the still-hidden Israeli report. Dean
Rusk, secretary of state at the time, says that he has "no current
recollection" of seeing the Salans report. He adds, however, that he was

Jewish Fundamentalism in Israel

By Israel Shahak and Norton Mezvinsky. London: Pluto Press,1999, 176
pp.List: $18.95; AET: $16.00

Reviewed by Allan C. Brownfeld

In recent years there has been a dramatic growth of Jewish fundamentalism
in Israel which has manifested itself in vigorous opposition to the peace
process and has played a key role, as well, in the assassination of Prime
Minister Yitzhak Rabin and the murder of 29 Muslims at prayer by the
American-born fundamentalist, Baruch Goldstein.

Few outside of Israel have been properly informed about the extent of the
fundamentalist movement or the theology upon which it is based. American
Jews, in particular, seem unaware of the narrow ethnocentrism which is
promoted by the movement's leading rabbis, or of the traditional Jewish
sources they are able to call upon in drawing clear distinctions between the
moral obligations owed to Jews and non-Jews.

In an important new book, Jewish Fundamentalism In Israel, Israel Shahak
and Norton Mezvinksy provide a thorough assessment of this phenomenon in
modern Israel. The authors trace the history and development of Jewish
fundamentalism, examining the various strains, and identify the messianic
tendency which they believe to be the most dangerous.

Israel Shahak, an Israeli and a Holocaust survivor, is a retired professor
at the Hebrew University and a leading human rights activist. Norton
Mezvinsky is a professor of history at Central Connecticut State University
who has written and lectured extensively on the modern Middle East.

The authors point out that "the adherents of Jewish fundamentalism in
Israel oppose equality for all citizens, especially non-Jews." The respected
Israeli sociologist Baruch Kimmerling, citing evidence from a study
conducted by other scholars, declared: "The value of the [Jewish] religion,
at least in its Orthodox and nationalistic form that prevails in Israel,
cannot be squared with democratic values. No other variable neither
nationality, nor attitudes about security, nor social or economic values,
nor ethnic descent and education so influences the attitudes of [Israeli]
Jews against democratic values as does religiousity."

What particularly concerns the authors is the total contempt which Jewish
fundamentalists show toward non-Jews. Rabbi Kook the Elder, the revered
father of the messianic tendency of Jewish fundamentalism, said, "The
difference between a Jewish soul and souls of non-Jews all of them in all
different levels is greater and deeper than the difference between a human
soul and the souls of cattle."

Rabbi Kook"s entire teaching, which is followed devoutly by, among others,
those who have led the settler movement on the occupied West Bank, is based
upon the Lurianic Cabbala, the school of Jewish mysticism that dominated
Judaism from the late16th to the early 19th century. "One of the basic
tenets of the Lurianic Cabbala," the authors write, "is the absolute
superiority of the Jewish soul and body over the non-Jewish soul and body.
According to the Lurianic Cabbala, the world was created solely for the sake
of Jews; the existence of non-Jews was subsidiary. If an influential
Christian bishop or Islamic scholar argued that the difference between the
superior souls of non-Jews and the inferior souls of Jews was greater than
the difference between the human soul and souls of cattle, he would incur
the wrath of all and be viewed as an anti-Semite by most Jewish scholars
regardless of whatever less meaningful, positive statements he included."

The scholarly authors of books about Jewish mysticism and the Lurianic
Cabbala, such as Gershon Scholem, have, the authors charge, "willfully
omitted reference to such ideas. These authors are supreme hypocrites. They
are analogous to many authors of books on Stalin and Stalinism. Until
recently, people who read only the books written by Stalinists could not
know about Stalin's crimes and would have false notions of the Stalinist
regimes and their real ideologies."

According to the ideologies which underlie Gush Emunim, the militant West
Bank settlers group, and Hasidism, non-Jews have "satanic souls" Shahak and
Mezvinsky note that "the role of Satan, whose earthly embodiment according
to the Cabbala is every non-Jew, has been minimized or not mentioned by
authors who have not written about the Cabbala in Hebrew. Such authors,
therefore, have not conveyed to readers accurate accounts of general NRP
(National Religious Party) or its hardcore Gush Emunim politics."

Common to both the Talmud and Halacha, Orthodox religious law, is a
differentiation between Jews and non-Jews. The late, highly revered Rabbi
Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the "Lubovitcher Rebbe" who headed the Chabad
movement and wielded

Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War!

What if Clinton decides to stay in office?
October 13, 2000

It is assumed that this will be an ordinary election year in which our
government peacefully changes administrations. While this is likely to occur,
remember it is Bill Clinton who is scheduled to leave office. That does tend
to put the situation in a different light.

After all, Clinton has managed to tear apart practically every restraint that
was designed to arrest his insatiable lust for power. He has turned the
Constitution upside down and turned Congress inside out. He has demonstrated
that neither the media nor the military brass has the character to resist his
tyrannical inclinations. Truly we have experienced America’s first imperial
presidency. Therefore, why should he leave office gracefully? Some people
don’t think he will.

What would the American people do if Clinton decided to stay in office? What
would the media do? What would our military leaders do? What would America’s
religious leaders say? What would Congress do? If recent history were any
indicator, they would do what they have done already: nothing at all! There
hasn’t been a serious challenge to Clinton’s corrupt and treasonous regime
since he became president. Why should he think that suddenly one would now
materialize?

If Bill Clinton decides to stay in office, I seriously doubt that our current
crop of political leaders would have the character or the courage to resist
him. The media adores him, so the idea wouldn’t upset them. Religious leaders
have already forgiven him for any and all sins committed, so they wouldn’t
have much to say. The military brass (the ones that have stayed anyway) have
largely sold their collective honor for career advancement; therefore, it is
obvious where their allegiance lies. Congress has shown itself to be
comprised of a bunch of toothless hound dogs, so their growls are harmless.
It might appear that the portal to kingship is wide open for Clinton.
Therefore, why shouldn’t he walk through it?

If Clinton has entertained such ideas (and I’m sure he has), there could be
only one foreseeable problem standing in his way: tens of million of armed
citizens! Without a doubt, the only thing standing between tyranny and us is
the widespread possession of privately owned firearms.

If the American people want to retain their liberties, they will fight to the
death for the right to keep and bear arms. If they have any hopes that their
children will grow up in a land of freedom, they will fight to the death for
the right to keep and bear arms. If they expect the Clintons of tomorrow to
submit to their role as servant of the people and not to become their
masters, they will fight to the death for the right to keep and bear arms.

Hopefully, Bill Clinton will leave office next January just like he is
supposed to. When it happens, rest assured that it wasn’t Clinton’s inner
conscience or the resolve of Congress that brought it to completion. It will
be nothing less than a testimony to the necessity of an armed citizenry!

Clinton's Bloody Photo-Op Diplomacy

   Dan Frisa
   Friday, Oct. 13, 2000

  A horrific price has been paid, with the lives of U.S.
sailors, as
  a direct result of the self-indulgent and wildly
misguided foreign
  policy of Bill Clinton and Al Gore, which tragically
amounts to
  nothing more than photo-op diplomacy.

  Even the staid and bland statement read by Clinton
yesterday
  and Gore's "selfless" cancellation of campaign stops to
be
  briefed - so long after the fact that these "briefings"
had to be
  staged - are so cynical and coldly political as to
border on the
  criminal.

  It's an outrage that the USS Cole was directed to
refuel in the
  port of Aden in Yemen, a known haven of some of the
world's
  most notorious terrorists, with the knowledge that
there have
  been numerous kidnappings of diplomats and Western
  citizens over the past year, as well as various other
acts of
  abject terrorism.

  And, why did the Clinton administration, in the
ultimate act of
  inane political correctness, recently re-classify
"terrorist states"
  as "areas of concern?"

  It has also now been revealed that recent U.S.
intelligence
  reports warned that U.S. ships were being specifically
  targeted by terrorists based in Yemen. Why, then,
continue
  refueling there?

  There is no excuse, there is no reason, there is no
justification
  for such a disastrous decision, which directly resulted
in the
  loss of American lives.

  The blood of these U.S. sailors is on the hands of Bill
Clinton
  and Al Gore.

  By forcing talks this summer, beyond any realistic
possibility of
  a sound result, between Ehud Barak and Yasser Arafat at
  Camp David, Clinton demonstrated his utter lack of
  comprehension of diplomacy and his abiding interest in
only
  himself.

  The result is that the man he helped elect as Israeli
prime
  minister, merely because he was deemed more willing than
  Netanyahu to grant concessions, offered such
far-reaching and
  one-sided terms to the Palestinians that Barak's own
political
  fate was thrust into question, severely weakening his
hand.

  And just last week when the United Nations acted upon a
  resolution condemning Israel, Clinton and Gore abandoned
  our ally and directed that the United States abstain!

  This act of cowardice and indecision stands as stark as
any
  betrayal could.

  So much so that these events could not help but send a
  dangerous signal of weakness and lack of resolve to the
  aggressors and enemies of both the U.S. and Israel.

  What's more, the ill-advised decision to grant
substantial relief
  from the post-Desert Storm sanctions to Iraq - even
after U.N.
  arms inspectors were unceremoniously expelled and in the
  face of other acts of defiance - has left Saddam
Hussein with
  a vastly strengthened hand, which he continues to wield
with
  increasing audacity.

  This, also, is materially related to the tragedy of the
USS Cole
  because its very mission in the gulf was to monitor
Iraqi export
  shipments that are now so much more numerous, given the
  relaxed restrictions, therefore engendering greater
danger
  through even more opportunities for confrontation.

  The result is that Saddam has control over enough
petroleum
  output to directly affect world oil markets. And he has
now
  become so emboldened that he is moving the remaining
  elements of the Republican Guard westward to the Iraqi
border
  closest to Israel.

  The overarching impact of these mistaken actions has
been to
  send world financial and petroleum markets reeling and

FBI Joins Probe

   NewsMax.com Wires
   Saturday, Oct. 14, 2000

  SAN FRANCISCO, (UPI) - A large U.S. team of
investigators
  and experts began arriving in the Yemeni port of Aden
  Saturday for the complex task of trying to determine
the cause
  of Thursday's suicide bomb attack against the USS Cole
that
  left 17 crew members dead and 39 injured.

  Around 150 FBI agents and evidence and explosives
experts
  and Defense Departments specialists from Washington were
  expected to be engaged in investigating the bombing for
  which two little-known Islamic radical groups have
claimed
  responsibility. Arab and Western experts are taking the
claims
  of the two organizations - the Islamic Deterrence
Forces and
  Mohammed's Army - seriously, but they believe they may
be
  terrorists from old militant outfits in the region that
have
  assumed new names.

  "We have no previous reports of their activities and
that's why
  we believe it is old wine in new bottles," said an Arab
  intelligence official who monitors the activities of
the so-called
  Arab-Afghans, citizens of Arab states who participated
in the
  Afghan war. Many of these Arab-Afghan fighters are now
  associated with various militant groups. Since 1992,
when an
  Arab militant group bombed the Egyptian Embassy in
  Islamabad, killing 15 people, most Arab embassies in the
  region maintain big intelligence outfits.

  An American specialist in international terrorism
commented
  that the bomb attempt was too ambitious for a newly
formed
  group. "You do not form a group one day and the next
day you
  go and attack an American warship," he said. "You need
a lot
  of courage and practice for that."

  You also need preparation. Eyewitnesses of the explosion
  said the attack was made by a small watercraft that had
been
  helping the Cole to dock before refueling. The boat,
which was
  manned by two men, was packed with explosives, and the
two
  men stood at attention just before the explosion ripped
into the
  ship's hull.

  Various experts have pointed out that the attack had to
be the
  work of people with advance information about the Cole's
  arrival in Aden on a refueling stop. A Pentagon
spokesman
  said Friday U.S. fleet movements are not made public,
but the
  port was routinely notified about 10 or 12 days in
advance of
  the USS Cole's arrival so as to ensure that the fuel
would be
  available.

  Despite his silence, the Al-Quaida group of terrorism
suspect
  Osama bin Laden remains one of the prime suspects.
  Washington holds bin Laden responsible for masterminding
  the August 1998 bombing of its two embassies in East
Africa
  that killed 224 people.

  Bin Laden has been hiding in Afghanistan since 1996 and
  U.S. intelligence sources claim that he has at least
two major
  training camps where he trains militants for his
Al-Quaida and
  other Islamic groups. "He has a cadre of dedicated and
  well-organized supporters who can do anything for him.
He
  also has sympathizers across the Muslim world and is
capable
  of striking wherever he wants," said an Arab diplomat.

  But bin Laden has long had ties with Yemen, a country
where
  several Islamic radical groups and terrorist
organizations
  blend into a landscape of traditional tribal rivalries
and
  old-fashioned bandits. Saturday Yemeni officials denied
U.S.
  State Department claims that it harbored terrorism. But
  observers said the Yemeni government was only in
control of
  the towns, or about a third of the country, and
lawlessness
  prevailed almost everywhere else.

 This interesting prayer was given in Kansas at the opening
 session of their Senate:

 When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the
 Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but
 this is what they heard:

 "Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask Your
 forgiveness and to seek Your direction and guidance.  We know
 YOUR Word says, " Woe to those who call evil good," but that is
 exactly what we have done.  We have lost our spiritual
 equilibrium and reversed our values.  We confess that:

 We have ridiculed the absolute truth of YOUR Word and called it
 pluralism;

 We have worshipped other gods and called it multiculturalism;

 We have endorsed perversion and called it alternative lifestyle;

 We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery;

 We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare;

 We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable;

 We have neglected to discipline our children and called it
 building self-esteem;

 We have abused power and called it politics;

 We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it
 ambition;

 We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and
 called it freedom of expression;

 We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and
 called it enlightenment.

 Search us, Oh, GOD, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from
 every sin and set us free.  Guide and bless these men and women
 who have been sent to direct us to the center of Your will, to
 open it.  For we ask it in the name of YOUR Son, the living
 Savior, JESUS CHRIST. Amen"



 The response was immediate.  A number of legislators walked out
 during the prayer in protest.  In 6 short weeks, Central
 Christian Church, where Reverend Wright is pastor, logged more
 than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 of those calls responding
 negatively. The church is now receiving international requests
 for copies of this prayer from India, Africa, and Korea.
 Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on "The Rest of the
 Story" on the radio and received a larger response to this
 program than any other he has ever aired.

 With the LORD'S help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and
 wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called
 one nation under GOD.

 If possible, please pass this prayer on to your friends.

-Caveat Lector-

WHERE IS THIS "Kurzweil"  GUYS SITE?

I have observed images of supposed "UFO's," - frankly, I think some of these
"saucers,"  could hardly zip across the length of my kitchen, let alone
interdimensionally, or supposedly intergalactically. UFOlogy is a joke!

ET's are a psychological symptom, and today, a secular mysticism in place of
oldtime superstition.

Scientific experiments, for example, indicate that even faint magnetic
fields generated around the brain, produce the same mystic experience that
UFO "abductees" supposedly experience.

Furthermore, the "messages," that "abductees," of UFO's and aliens have is
identical in philosophy to the One Worlder religio-political-economic elite.

The deceptive intrigues and deceptions of various of the ancient and modern
priestcraft, creating "gods," demons, spirits, so on and so forth is well
attested. In addition, I would suggest that people have ever "mysteriously
vanished," in the old world because of the deceptions such cliques and
people claiming to be taken by their "gods" when drugged off their heads to
"other worlds," or under the drugged, hypnotics influence of shamans,
voodooists, conjurors, mesmerists, sorcerers, then claiming such
hallucinations were reality.

Why would the CIA, as has been widely reported, actively spread LSD into the
general community? Has not the CIA, along with other apparatus' of the
Ruling Elite, promoted this "alien" gewgaw all along?

What is the following except the avowed use superstition, secular mysticism,
employed toward political ends? According to USA Today and other newspapers,
Henry Kissinger, in an address to the Bilderbergers meeting at Evian, France
on 21 May 1992, stated:

"Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to
restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if
they were told there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or
promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all the
peoples of the world will plead with world leaders to deliver them from this
evil. The one thing that every man fears is the unknown. When presented with
this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the
guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world government."

"If the Earthlings should not raise their vibratory rate within a set period
of time, severe earth changes and major cataclysms will take place. (Such
disasters will not end the world, but shall serve as cataclysmic crucibles
to burn off the dross of unreceptive humanity. Those who die in such
dreadful purging's will be allowed to reincarnate on higher levels of
development so that their salvation will be more readily accomplished
through higher teachings on a higher vibratory level.)"

"[The occultist] is brought into intelligent communication with the spirits
of the air, and can receive any knowledge which they possess, or any false
impression they choose to impart...the demons seem permitted to do various
wonders at their request." G.H. Pember, Earth's Earliest Ages and Their
Connection with Modern Spiritualism and Theosophy (1876), p. 254

"The symbolic display seen by the abductees is identical to the type of
initiation ritual or astral voyage that is imbedded in the [occult]
traditions of every culture...the structure of abduction stories is
identical to that of occult initiation rituals...the UFO beings of today
belong to the same class of manifestation as the [occult] entities that were
described in centuries past." Dr. Jacques Vallee citing the extensive
research of Bertrand Meheust [Science-Fiction et Soucoupes Volantes (Paris,
1978); Soucoupes Volantes et Folklore (Paris, 1985)], in Confrontations, p.
146, 159-161

"The 'medical examination' to which abductees are said to be subjected,
often accompanied by sadistic sexual manipulation, is reminiscent of the
medieval tales of encounters with demons. It makes no sense in a
sophisticated or technical framework: any intelligent being equipped with
the scientific marvels that UFOs possess would be in a position to achieve
any of these alleged scientific objectives in a shorter time and with fewer
risks." -Dr. Jacques Vallee, Confrontations, p. 13

Is abducting and raping women okay if extra-terrestrials do it? Also, why
all the authoritarian overtones to some of the messages? Do they really have
our best interest in mind or is there evidence of some kind of control
system?

The Aetherius Society, a UFO sect, founded by contactee George KIng..in its
documents, based on information from UFO sources, we are told that "Globe
Master, a ruler of the world, is to come - a stranger who will be more
powerful than all the armies on earth. He will remove all those from the
earth who do not respect his word. In his book "The Day the Gods Came" King

David Icke writes:

"The black magic rituals we know as Satanism are the modern expression of the
rituals and human sacrifice in ancient Babylon and the Brotherhood infiltrated
societies of the Sumerian, Phoenician, Hittite, Egyptian, Canaanite and
Akkadian, peoples, among many others across the world. It has been a seamless
procession through history of the same rituals to the same deities and this
remains of fundamental importance to the initiates of the Brotherhood today.

My use of the term Satanism has nothing to do with the Christian version of
Satan. I use it only to describe a system of ritual sacrifice and torture which,
staggering as it may seem; to most people, is commonplace all over the world
today. Satanism is just another name for the worship of a highly destructive,
negative force which has been given endless names over the centuries. Nimrod,
Baal, Moloch or Molech, Set, the Devil, Lucifer, there is no end to them.
Satanism perverts everything positive in the same way that the Nazis took a
positive symbol, the swastika, and turned it around to symbolise the negative.

This is why the Satanists invert the pentagram and why they use black to
symbolise the darkness, hence their Black Mass. But they also reverse the
symbolism of white and that is a powerfully negative colour to them.

The Satanic networks, under the names of their various deities, were created by
the Babylonian Brotherhood to serve their needs. We have seen that the accounts
of the Watchers and their off spring, the Nefilim, include references to their
blood drinking activities. The Brotherhood know that blood contains the
life-force energy. Drinking menstrual blood has always been a feature of the
reptilian bloodlines because they need blood to live in this dimension.

It was known as the Star Fire, the female lunar essence. The female menstrual
cycle is governed by the cycles of the Moon and the blood contains that energy.
Its ingredients are supposed to ensure a long life. In India it was called soma
and in Greece it was ambrosia. This was said to be the nectar of the gods and it
was the reptilian gods who are genetic blood drinkers. The 'holy grail' chalice
or cup is also symbolic of the womb and ~ drinking menstrual blood, as well as
being a symbol of the reptilian 'royal' bloodline itself. Menstrual blood was
provided for the Elite of the reptilian 'royal' line by virgin priestesses and
this is the origin of the term 'Scarlet Woman' or, to the Greeks, 'Sacred
Woman'. The Greek word for this, Hierodulai, was eventually translated into
English as harlot and into German as 'hores", the origin of whore. The word
ritual derives from this practice (ritu = redness) and so do the words rite and
red. Menstrual blood is one reason why the colour red is so important to
Satanists and it is another reason for the constant use of the colour gold by
the 'royal' bloodlines. Gold is called the metal of the gods, but to the
Anunnaki of the Sumerian Tablets, menstrual blood was the 'gold of the gods'.

The reptilians and their crossbreeds drink blood because they are drinking the
person's life-force and because they need it to exist in this dimension. They
will often shape-shift into reptilians when drinking human blood and eating
human flesh, I am told by those who have seen this happen. Blood drinking is in
their genes and an Elite high priestess or 'Mother Goddess' in the hierarchy,
who performed rituals for the Brotherhood at the highest level, told, me that
without human blood the reptilians cannot survive in this dimension.

Her name is Arizona Wilder, formerly Jennifer Ann Green. Interestingly, she said
that the reptilians had been pursuing the Aryan peoples around the universe,
because the blood of the white race was particularly important to them for some
reason and the blondhaired, blue-eyed genetic stream was the one they wanted
more than any other. They had followed the white race to Mars, she said, and
then came to Earth with them. It is far from impossible that the reptilian
arrival on this planet in numbers was far more recent than even many researchers
imagine. An interbreeding programme only a few thousand years ago between the
reptilian Anunnaki and white Martian bloodlines already interbred with the
reptilians on

   ^^^
The books, reports, and articles recommended are not without serious
faults from the point-of-view of the Project, the Quarterly Journal of
A-albionic Research.  Most are guilty of blatant partisan bias, too often
on the basis of ideology, religion, race, class, interest group, etc.
Unfortunately, by its nature, ruling class research is not and probably
never will be solely the province of disinterested scholars.  However,
keep in mind that the bootlicking, lying court historians cultivate only
the appearance of objectivity and, therefore, deserve even less credit
than some of the partisan authors we have recommended.

The Project hypothesis is unique in ruling class-conspiracy literature.
None of the authors recommended present the Project theory.  The
recommended reading simply contributes facts, research leads, evidence,
testimony, insights, theorizing, and speculation relevant to the Project's
progress toward uncovering the objective nature of the ruling class-
conspiracy(s) or power organism(s).

Do not judge the Project theory by the readings recommended. We recommend
many authors not for objective information, but for insight into the
propaganda of the social power organism which holds them in thrall.

For the evolving Project theory consult only the Project back issues,
especially the August 1985 Issue ($9.00) for the original theory and the
Winter- Spring 1989-90 Issue ($9.00) for a major revision of working

**The Myths of Democracy and Pluralism vs Ruling Class/Conspiracy Theories
  
 Is America ruled by the outcome of the democratic process in which a

a ruling class obtains the consent of the governed for its exploitive,
parasitical social and economic engineering?

 If the ruling class/conspiracy paradigm is correct, is the ruling

America's

The Plunder of Russia


Russian Media Boss Hides Out in Israel


The advantage of keeping assets offshore.

MOSCOW, Oct 14, 2000 -- (Reuters) The head of Russia's leading independent
Media Company told prosecutors on Friday that he refused to come to Russia
for questioning on allegations of hiding company assets, and invited them to
Israel instead.

Prosecutors have alleged that Media-Most boss Vladimir Gusinsky shifted
assets abroad to avoid having them seized in a debt dispute with Russia's
state-owned gas giant, Gazprom.
Media-Most says the case is part of official pressure to force Gusinsky to
give up control of Media-Most.

"He (Gusinsky) does not believe he has guarantees of security on Russian
territory and he has said that he is ready to testify at any convenient time
to the prosecutors in Israel," Media-Most spokesman Dmitry Ostalsky told
Reuters.

He said a letter to this effect had been sent to the General Prosecutor's
office. It was the second time in recent weeks he has refused to appear
before prosecutors.

Gusinsky holds Russian and Israeli citizenship and has been in Israel since
prosecutors dropped a previous, unrelated case.

Russian news agencies quoted the prosecutor's office as saying they would
press on with their pursuit of Gusinsky.

"Someone called for questioning must appear at the time and place set," a
spokesman said. "The law has demands which every citizen must fulfil and
Gusinsky is no exception in this."
The Media-Most case has raised fears for press freedom but President Vladimir
Putin has said he supports freedom of speech.

Media-Most has accused the Kremlin of orchestrating a campaign to seize
Media-Most, which owns Russia's only independent national television channel,
NTV.

Of the other two national TV channels, one is state-owned while the other is
under strong official influence amid an unending tug of war between the
state, which owns 51 percent of it, and the other key shareholder, Boris
Berezovsky.

NTV is the only one that even mildly criticizes Kremlin policy.

Gusinsky, jailed for three days in June, left Russia after saying he had been
forced "at gunpoint" to sign a deal in July to hand over Media-Most to settle
debts to Gazprom.

He has repudiated the deal but Gazprom has gone to court to have it honoured.
Ostalsky said Media-Most had asked a firm of U.S. lawyers to check on the
firm's assets to prove that none of them had been shifted abroad.

He said the firm's conclusions would be ready soon.

Is the end in sight?
Oct 12th 2000
From The Economist print edition



Wall Street is rediscovering fear—this week in its high-tech stockmarkets,
but more particularly in the junk-bond market

THERE is trouble brewing in the world’s capital markets, especially at their
most speculative end. Although the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average has
fallen by only a bit—well, 10% actually—this year, Nasdaq, the main market
for high-tech shares, has had a torrid time. Since its high point in March,
it has fallen by some 40%, and it shows few signs of hitting bottom. The
profits of technology companies are failing to meet expectations—and even the
rare ones that do, such as Yahoo!, find that this is not always enough to
spare their share price a beating. Telecoms firms are saddled with huge
debts. Internet firms are near-untouchable. At mid-week, the Nasdaq Composite
index had fallen for 13 of its 15 most recent trading days.

Disappointing profits, sales and advertising revenues, plus the fact that
many shares were crazily overvalued to start with, have all caused problems.
Intel, Lucent Technologies, Motorola: all have seen slower sales growth than
investors had previously been led to expect, and have been punished severely
for their shortcomings. Even when sales growth has been better than expected,
as was the case with Yahoo!, some other factor, in this case signs of a drop
in advertising revenues, has spoiled the picture.

So much for shares. But an even scarier story may be unfolding in a market
mostly ignored by those who day-trade Nasdaq’s dreamy paper: that for
corporate debt. In recent weeks, disappointing profits have meant that some
blue-chip companies have seen their investment-grade debt pummelled. The
victims include Xerox, Eastman-Kodak, and just about every telecoms firm
(“death, taxes and the long-term deterioration of the phone sector are among
the few certainties in life,” wrote Credit Suisse First Boston in a recent
report). After announcing bad results, yet again, last week, the spread on
Xerox’s bonds over Treasuries tripled to 330 basis points. Hitherto,
investment-grade bonds had generally stood above the fray.

Cowboy junkies

The fray has, in particular, surrounded those bonds without an
investment-grade rating: described by Wall Street’s marketing folk as
“high-yield bonds”, but formerly (and perhaps again) known simply as “junk”.
These bonds, particularly those issued by non-blue-chip telecoms and tech
companies, have been by far the worst of a poorly performing bunch. Merrill
Lynch’s high-yield index is now nearly as ugly as in 1998, during the panic
over the failure of Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM), a hedge fund that
owned lots of junk (see chart).
This week, some big investment banks were rumoured to have lost a fortune—$1
billion is the gossips’ favourite sum—on junk debt they underwrote but could
not shift even to their most gullible customers. Among the names bandied
about in the market were Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, Deutsche Bank and CSFB.
Each denied, more or less, that it had lost lots of money on junk debt.
Morgan said junk would hurt fourth-quarter profits by at most only $45m,
causing a rebound in its shares, which had plunged by 11% on October 10th.
Shares in other investment banks also fell. Since Credit Suisse bought
Donaldson, Lufkin  Jenrette (a high-yield-bond specialist), $12
billion—coincidentally, the price it paid for DLJ—has been wiped off Credit
Suisse’s market value.

Investment banks hold many billions of dollars of debt and have lots of risky
loans on their books. One market participant reckons that there is, perhaps,
$25 billion at serious risk in the big investment banks’ portfolios. It is
conceivable, he says, that among them, they could lose $10 billion of this.
If so, the grim reaper seems likeliest to be the telecoms sector—which is
fast looking less like the foundations of a glorious Internet future and more
like another outing for the emperor’s new clothes.

Deutsche Telekom, France Telecom and British Telecom, to take but three, have
had their credit ratings slashed. These would have been cut by even more had
the companies not persuaded the rating agencies to hold fire while they try
to flog any assets they can. But, done in a hurry, this may be a less
lucrative process than they hope. And Credit Suisse Asset Management, for
one, reckons that Deutsche Telekom, for example, should already be closer to
a BB credit (ie, junk) than its current A rating. That might reveal something
about those telecom firms that are already rated as junk.

The sheer volume of high-yield debt is causing spreads over Treasuries to
soar. But so, ominously, is the draining of liquidity from the market, which
has never really recovered from the

Subject: [CTRL] Article by Jewish Professor regarding Jewish hatred for
Christianity

For a start, you would need to DEFINE ...  "CHRISTIANITY" ... ???


 The authors point out that "the adherents of Jewish fundamentalism in
 Israel oppose equality for all citizens, especially non-Jews." The
respected
 Israeli sociologist Baruch Kimmerling, citing evidence from a study
 conducted by other scholars, declared: "The value of the [Jewish]
religion,
 at least in its Orthodox and nationalistic form that prevails in Israel,
 cannot be squared with democratic values. No other variable neither
 nationality, nor attitudes about security, nor social or economic values,
 nor ethnic descent and education so influences the attitudes of [Israeli]
 Jews against democratic values as does religiousity."

Hmmm ... sounds a rather broad brushed statement to make imo?  Many Jewish
people are secular, and subscribe to no  religion.


 What particularly concerns the authors is the total contempt which Jewish
 fundamentalists show toward non-Jews. Rabbi Kook the Elder, the revered
 father of the messianic tendency of Jewish fundamentalism, said, "The
 difference between a Jewish soul and souls of non-Jews all of them in all
 different levels is greater and deeper than the difference between a human
 soul and the souls of cattle."

The Vatican (which has innumerable US sycophantic spittle-lickers), teaches
that IT ALONE is the "true church," and that Salvation of souls cannot be
attained unless it is ONLY through it. This teaching is in fact papal LAW!
All those not "saved," by [un]holy Rome, will burn and writhe in the eternal
flames and agony of "Hell,"  including the infirm, elderly, children, women,
babies, so on and so forth.

This repugnant superstition, makes the notion that some are in possession of
"lesser" souls, seem rather pale in comparison.  Some 49% of the US populace
apparently adhere to the papal religion, how many TENS of MILLIONS would
this be then? Where are the voices raised against such a barbaric religion
in the U.S.? Yet some miniscule group of Rabbi's, which ascribe to some
silly tribal superstition, from a worldwide population perhaps less than
that of a big US city, makes some headline? Rather odd in my opinion?

The Vatican "religion," claims it has over 1 BILLION devotees, many of which
inhabit the highest offices of US government and Intel.  The current US
President was trained by a Vatican institution,  by the Jesuits, via Jesuit
Georgetown University. His "morality," is testimony to his indoctrination in
the Jesuits use of CASUISTRY and equivocation.


 Common to both the Talmud and Halacha, Orthodox religious law, is a
 differentiation between Jews and non-Jews. The late, highly revered Rabbi
 Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the "Lubovitcher Rebbe" who headed the Chabad
 movement and wielded great influence in Israel as well as in the U.S.,
 explained that, "The difference between a Jewish and a non-Jewish person
 stems from the common expression: 'Let us differentiate.' Thus, we do not
 have a case of profound change in which a person is merely on a superior
 level. Rather, we have a case of 'let us differentiate' between totally
 different species. This is what needs to be said about the body: the body
of
 a Jewish person is of a totally different quality from the body of
[members]
 of all nations of the world A non-Jew's entire reality is only vanity. It
is
 written, 'And the strangers shall guard and feed your flocks' (Isaiah
61:5).
 The entire creation [of a non-Jew] exists only for the sake of the Jews"

Once again, why are the crazy rants of a minor cult elevated to such a lofty
status in this "REVIEW," as supposed representation, of apparently - ALL
JEWS?  In comparison, if you care to look at the history of your own
country, and the supposed "Christian" rants of many Catholic prelates,
which, for example, taught the doctrine, and called for the atomic
annihilation of ALL, "godless communists,"   many of the same also supported
Catholic Hitler and the Nazi regime, and exterminated Jews, at the behest of
the pope of Rome who egged his "favourite son of the church" Hitler on,
whilst saying his holy "Hail Mary's," and prayers.


 Rabbi Yitzhak Ginsburgh, who wrote a chapter of a book in praise of
 Goldstein and what he did, is another member of this group. An immigrant
to
 Israel from the U.S., Rabbi Ginsburgh speaks freely of Jews'
genetic-based,
 spiritual superiority over non-Jews. "If you saw two people drowning, a
Jew
 and a non-Jew, the Torah says you save the Jewish life first," Ginsburgh
 states. "If every simple cell in a Jewish body entails divinity, is a part
 of God, then every strand of DNA is part of God. Therefore, something is
 special about Jewish DNA "If a Jew needs a liver, can you take the liver
of
 an innocent non-Jew passing by

 At this site, there are numerous links to the Arab perspective on the
Middle East.  I am not advocating any (as I have read few if any); yet, it is
important to know what some representatives the majority of the area's
residents think with regard to their regional identity.  With the focus only on
one American "ally" that is given "Liberty" to affect the press, this is
-- needless to say -- unbalanced.  AER 

From
http://www.ahram.org.eg/weekly/1998/1948/index.htm

}}Begin
Special pages commemorating
50 years of Arab dispossession
since the creation of the State of Israel
Published in Cairo by AL-AHRAM established in 1875
1948-1998

David Ben-Gurion, one of the father founders of Israel, described Zionist aims
in 1948 thus: "A Christian state should be established [in Lebanon], with its
southern border on the Litani river. We will make an alliance with it. When we
smash the Arab Legion's strength and bomb Amman, we will eliminate Transjordan
too, and then Syria will fall. If Egypt still dares to fight on, we shall bomb
Port Said, Alexandria and Cairo... And in this fashion, we will end the war and
settle our forefathers' account with Egypt, Assyria, and Aram" *.

50 years after the Arab defeat in the1948 war, which resulted in the
establishment of Israel, many of Ben-Gurion's stated aims can still be
discerned in the language of Israeli and Zionist leaders. Some modifications
have become apparent, in large part as a result of Arab resistance, but the
biblical language in which Ben-Gurion chose to state his meaning starkly
expresses the deeply-rooted nature of these violent fantasies of conquest and
destruction.

Resistance, in this instance through a better comprehension of the history of
the struggle, as well as the writing of our own version of it, becomes more
necessary than ever. Israel cannot be allowed to write the history of the past
fifty years unchallenged. It is in this conviction that Al-Ahram Weekly
presents the first in a regular series of articles designed to document the
history and nature of Arab-Israeli struggle, as well as that of Palestinian
dispossession and exile.

The libertarian therefore considers one of his prime educational
tasks is to spread the demystification and desanctification of the
State among its hapless subjects.  His task is to demonstrate
repeatedly and in depth that not only the emperor but even the
"democratic" State has no clothes; that all governments subsist
by exploitive rule over the public; and that such rule is the reverse
of objective necessity.  He strives to show that the existence of
taxation and the State necessarily sets up a class division between
the exploiting rulers and the exploited ruled.  He seeks to show that
the task of the court intellectuals who have always supported the State
has ever been to weave mystification in order to induce the public to
accept State rule and that these intellectuals obtain, in return, a
share in the power and pelf extracted by the rulers from their deluded
subjects.

 WHERE IS THIS "Kurzweil"  GUYS SITE?

 I have observed images of supposed "UFO's," - frankly, I think some of these
 "saucers,"  could hardly zip across the length of my kitchen, let alone
 interdimensionally, or supposedly intergalactically. UFOlogy is a joke!

 ET's are a psychological symptom, and today, a secular mysticism in place of
 oldtime superstition.

 Scientific experiments, for example, indicate that even faint magnetic
 fields generated around the brain, produce the same mystic experience that
 UFO "abductees" supposedly experience.

 Furthermore, the "messages," that "abductees," of UFO's and aliens have is
 identical in philosophy to the One Worlder religio-political-economic elite.

 The deceptive intrigues and deceptions of various of the ancient and modern
 priestcraft, creating "gods," demons, spirits, so on and so forth is well
 attested. In addition, I would suggest that people have ever "mysteriously
 vanished," in the old world because of the deceptions such cliques and
 people claiming to be taken by their "gods" when drugged off their heads to
 "other worlds," or under the drugged, hypnotics influence of shamans,
 voodooists, conjurors, mesmerists, sorcerers, then claiming such
 hallucinations were reality.

 Why would the CIA, as has been widely reported, actively spread LSD into the
 general community? Has not the CIA, along with other apparatus' of the
 Ruling Elite, promoted this "alien" gewgaw all along?

 What is the following except the avowed use superstition, secular mysticism,
 employed toward political ends? According to USA Today and other newspapers,
 Henry Kissinger, in an address to the Bilderbergers meeting at Evian, France
 on 21 May 1992, stated:

 "Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to
 restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if
 they were told there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or
 promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all the
 peoples of the world will plead with world leaders to deliver them from this
 evil. The one thing that every man fears is the unknown. When presented with
 this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the
 guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world government."

 "If the Earthlings should not raise their vibratory rate within a set period
 of time, severe earth changes and major cataclysms will take place. (Such
 disasters will not end the world, but shall serve as cataclysmic crucibles
 to burn off the dross of unreceptive humanity. Those who die in such
 dreadful purging's will be allowed to reincarnate on higher levels of
 development so that their salvation will be more readily accomplished
 through higher teachings on a higher vibratory level.)"

 "[The occultist] is brought into intelligent communication with the spirits
 of the air, and can receive any knowledge which they possess, or any false
 impression they choose to impart...the demons seem permitted to do various
 wonders at their request." G.H. Pember, Earth's Earliest Ages and Their
 Connection with Modern Spiritualism and Theosophy (1876), p. 254

 "The symbolic display seen by the abductees is identical to the type of
 initiation ritual or astral voyage that is imbedded in the [occult]
 traditions of every culture...the structure of abduction stories is
 identical to that of occult initiation rituals...the UFO beings of today
 belong to the same class of manifestation as the [occult] entities that were
 described in centuries past." Dr. Jacques Vallee citing the extensive
 research of Bertrand Meheust [Science-Fiction et Soucoupes Volantes (Paris,
 1978); Soucoupes Volantes et Folklore (Paris, 1985)], in Confrontations, p.
 146, 159-161

 "The 'medical examination' to which abductees are said to be subjected,
 often accompanied by sadistic sexual manipulation, is reminiscent of the
 medieval tales of encounters with demons. It makes no sense in a
 sophisticated or technical framework: any intelligent being equipped with
 the scientific marvels that UFOs possess would be in a position to achieve
 any of these alleged scientific objectives in a shorter time and with fewer
 risks." -Dr. Jacques Vallee, Confrontations, p. 13

 Is abducting and raping women okay if extra-terrestrials do it? Also, why
 all the authoritarian overtones to some of the messages? Do they really have
 our best interest in mind or is there evidence of some kind of control
 system?

 The Aetherius Society, a UFO sect, founded by contactee George KIng..in its
 documents, based on information from UFO sources, we are told that "Globe
 Master, a ruler of the world, is to come - a stranger who will be more
 powerful than all the armies
