[CTRL] Possible biotech grain prompts expanded tortilla recall
-Caveat Lector- 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. }}} ANOMALOUS RADIO {{{ - Techno, Ambient, Talk (33k+) http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/directory.cgi?autostart=anomalous }}} RADIO ANOMALY {{{ - Techno, Ambient, Jazz (Cable, DSL) http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/directory.cgi?autostart=stevew168 Anomalous Images and UFO Files http://www.anomalous-images.com A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Kansas State Senate Prayer
-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.

[CTRL] No Room for Error in Weeks Before the Vote
-Caveat Lector- October 15, 2000 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

[CTRL] DOWD: As the World Churns
-Caveat Lector- October 15, 2000 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. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

Prudy 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.

[CTRL] NM: Analysis: Was Clinton Being Blackmailed by the Kremlin?
-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 Yeltsins 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 Clintons 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 Clintons relations with Lewinsky were discovered by the Russians or other foreign intelligence agencies. *Was Clinton being blackmailed? Intelligence experts have worried that the presidents private life may have led to compromising him and, de facto, the countrys 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. Clintons 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 presidents private life. National security concerns have included: *The presidents relationship with China. Under Clinton administration policies, some of Americas 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. Russias continuing military buildup. Despite its economic woes, Russias 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. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

[CTRL] AP: Tribe Accused of Drug Program Abuse
-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. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[CTRL] AP: White House Lawyers Hold Facts
-Caveat Lector- 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. http://www.cosmiverse.com/paranormal100902.html = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.
[CTRL] AP: U.S. Oil Workers Seized in Ecuador
-Caveat Lector- [Sorry if this was already posted, but, since it has to do with international antinarcotics trafficking efforts, I wanted to make sure you guys interested and researching these things saw it. --MS] 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. = Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

We are now a drug culture.look on TV where Pfizer and other drug companies encourage people to take these drugs - they say tell you 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 companiesand a market is being bult for same - our kids - Any school principal and teacher who would promote these drugs should be fired immediately; law suits should be filed say like the two kids in Littleton?

[CTRL] NEWSFLASH: OCTOBER 14
-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

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

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.

[CTRL] Navy flag-lowering plan confirmed
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! 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
[CTRL] Low expectations for Sharm summit
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! 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

-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! 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 â 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
[CTRL] A cornerstone for 3rd Temple?
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! 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 ..." *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S.

[CTRL] On C-Span: Gore tries to debate Nader on October 20
-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 and their seconds-in-command, as well as the entire Washington press corps. We urge everyone to watch this debate, which certainly promises to be the most interesting and representative presidential debate of the season. As always, please check your local listings for up-to-the-minute scheduling; TV and radio news stations reserve the right to make last-minute changes. -- -- JUST VOTE NADER. http://www.votenader.com RESOURCE PAGE FOR DO-IT-YOURSELF NADER CAMPAIGN MATERIALS: http://www.oro.net/~dscanlan/NaderResource.html A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

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 durchführt, wer sie unbefugt anbietet, verteilt, verkauft, vermittelt, verschafft, verordnet, in Verkehr bringt oder abgibt, wer sie unbefugt besitzt, aufbewahrt, kauft oder sonstwie erlangt, wer hiezu Anstalten trifft, wer den unerlaubten Verkehr mit Betäubungsmitteln finanziert oder seine Finanzie-rung vermittelt, wer öffentlich zum Betäubungsmittelkonsum auffordert oder öffentlich Gelegenheit zum Erwerb oder Konsum von Betäubungsmitteln bekanntgibt, wird, wenn er die Tat vorsätzlich begeht, mit Gefängnis oder mit Busse bestraft. In schweren Fällen ist die Strafe Zuchthaus oder Gefängnis nicht unter einem Jahr, womit eine Busse bis zu 1 Million Franken
[CTRL] Ha'aretz: Front units to get video cameras
-Caveat Lector- 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.

[CTRL] Ya Gotta Wonder
-Caveat Lector- http://www.webleyweb.com/tle/libe92-20001002-03.html Ya Gotta Wonder by Carl Bussjaeger(*) [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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

-Caveat Lector- Ok, Now tell us what you really think;-) Very good analysis. Om K In a message dated 10/15/00 8:46:02 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: 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.

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

[CTRL] Judge Lenient With Perjurer, Cites Clinton Case
-Caveat Lector- http://www.abqjournal.com/news/149889news10-14-00.htm Judge Lenient With Perjurer, Cites Clinton Case Saturday, October 14, 2000 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. "It's just terribly out of

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

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.

[CTRL] Arabian Daze
-Caveat Lector- From http://www.ireland.com/newspaper/world/2000/1014/wor20.htm }}Begin Saturday, October 14, 2000 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 YUGOSLAVIA Fischer states that Yugoslavs Must Acquire Democratic Culture in order to be able to Relate to Germany Comments by Prof. Michel Chossudovsky follow the news report www.tenc.net [Emperor's Clothes] [Note: The following 'AP' dispatch was apparently released only in German. Emperor's Clothes is publishing the German text and our own English translation for Fair Use Only.] *** (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. [Note: Original German text will be posted as soon as possible at http://emperors-clothes.com/german/bundeswehr.htm ] *** 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

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. Saba 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." (© Jewish Telegraphic Agency Inc.

[CTRL] Fwd: Christians Are Starting to Eat the Lions
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.

Christians Are Starting to Eat the Lions (Part 3) PART 1 PART 2 PART 3 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

Saba Posted Saturday, July 24, 1999 Quick navigation They Dare to Speak Out by Paul Findley [Return to Part I] 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 never

-Caveat Lector- Dear Carl, Here is the truth about the Talmud and Jewish fundamentalism. http://www.washington-report.org/backissues/0300/0003105.html Washington Report on Middle East Affairs MARCH 2000, pages 105-106 Book Review 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.

-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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 Americaâs first imperial presidency. Therefore, why should he leave office gracefully? Some people donât 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 Americaâs 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 hasnât been a serious challenge to Clintonâs 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 wouldnât upset them. Religious leaders have already forgiven him for any and all sins committed, so they wouldnât 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 shouldnât he walk through it? If Clinton has entertained such ideas (and Iâm 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 wasnât Clintonâs inner conscience or the resolve of Congress that brought it to completion.

[CTRL] Clinton's Bloody Photo-Op Diplomacy
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! 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 severely
[CTRL] FBI Joins Probe
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! 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.

Re: [CTRL] Kansas State Senate Prayer

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.

Re: [CTRL] Holy War: The Holy War Against Alien Life (fwd)
-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 says that this ...Being will come among men dressed in the one piece suit usually worn by the Intelligences from other Planets...He will openly approach

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

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.

Orlin Grabbe/A - 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.

Oct 12th 2000 From The Economist print edition Wall Street is rediscovering fearthis week in its high-tech stockmarkets, but more particularly in the junk-bond market THERE is trouble brewing in the worlds capital markets, especially at their most speculative end. Although the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average has fallen by only a bitwell, 10% actuallythis 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 expectationsand 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 Nasdaqs 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 Xeroxs 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 Streets 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 Lynchs 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 sumon 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 billioncoincidentally, the price it paid for DLJhas been wiped off Credit Suisses 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 sectorwhich is fast looking less like the foundations of a glorious Internet future and more like another outing for the emperors 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

Re: [CTRL] Article by Jewish Professor regarding Jewish hatred for Christianity
-Caveat Lector- - Original Message - From: "Justine Blake" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 16, 2000 11:47 AM 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

-Caveat Lector- 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.

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.

-Caveat Lector- You are one of the best sources of disinformation on the Internet! I am truely impressed. You really don't work for the NSA. But you should. Steve On 17 Oct 00, at 13:51, NSA wrote: -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?
