[CTRL] [Fwd: Lunacy]
- SNETNEWS Mailing List
http://www.fredoneverything.net/Suspension.html
Lunacy In Glorious Flower
Notes From The Pansy Bed
Oh joy. Today we have the latest antics of our educational
parsnips as they disassemble civilization. From the
News-Journal Online I learn that Flagler Country, Florida,
hitherto not noted for anything, is trying to turn yet another
little boy into an ungendered vegetable. Every day in every
way, we get nuttier and nuttier.
"A fourth-grader at Bunnell Elementary School received a
10-day suspension for drawing a picture of himself shooting
another pupil with a laser gun."
God almighty.
The damning artwork was with the story. Yep, kid picture.
Laser gun. Prima facie case. A dangerous psychopath. The
machinery of correctness, ever alert for opportunities for
somber fatuity, leaped into action, and recommended . . .
what? See whether you can guess:
(1) That the education apparatchiks grow up
(2) That they apologize to the kid for being such lugubrious
asses
(3) That they send him to counseling.
How did you do?
Said Superintendent Robert Williams, for whom English seems
to be a recent second language, "We are looking to find some
help for the child. We are looking at some counseling. We are
not taking this lightly."
Clearly not, which worries me. If there's anything that calls
more loudly for being taken lightly than a kid playing
spacemen, I'm not sure what it might be.
Think about it. The kid's nine. All his life he has watched
Star Wars, in which no one does anything but shoot people with
laser guns, occasionally pausing for philosophical drivel. He
has presumably watched Star Trek, in which people with funny
ears and no personalities shoot each other with laser guns
built into their Palm Pilots. Now he's playing spacemen. Who
would have thought it?
Educationists unsettle me. They seem to understand kids as a
pygmy understands a television. The pygmy can be taught to
recognize a television. ("Yeah, boss. Dass him, you betcha.
Heap talkatalk.") But the pygmy hasn't the faintest clue how a
television works.
I don't doubt that most teachers at Bunnell could recognize a
child -- that is, pick him out of a lineup also containing a
llama, an engine block, and a birthday cake. ("Uh, let me see
. . . number three. That one's the kid, officer. Yes, I'm
sure.")
But they don't seem to have the foggiest idea how kids work,
boys in particular. They know what they want boys to be, but
they don't know what boys are. What they want them to be is
ideologically correct little catatonics who sit quietly and
play with dolls.
In fact male chillun are wildmen. Always have been. It's what
makes them worthwhile, if sometimes difficult. They definitely
want to zap the Klingons. Any Klingons. When I was a kid in
Alabama, it was Yankees, and on the playgrounds and in the
woods we ran those varmints back up north where they belonged.
A Yankee is just another form of Klingon.
Now you couldn't do it today. You'd get those tiresome racial
lobbies threatening to burn cities or file suit. Heaven help a
kid playing at cowboys and Injuns. It would offend preliterate
aboriginals everywhere. Step by step, we're ideologizing even
recess.
It gets better. Says the story:
"Al Martinez, the father of the child portrayed as the victim
in the picture, said Tuesday he was disappointed with the
10-day suspension.
'They didn't seem to take things seriously. It was like a
joke,' Martinez said. 'He should have gotten a little more
that what the got when (he) threatened a person.'"
Swell. Let's give the kid the max. How about the chair?
Lethal injection? Maybe mutilation would help.
Permit me to suggest my own idiosyncratic response. If some
unisex wuss did this to my kid, I believe I'd say, "Why don't
you wrap your stupid school in barbed wire, roll it in salt,
heat it red hot, and become an amazing proctologic curiosity?
I'd be glad to help."
See? I can do therapy too.
But the real question is: What will this militant
gooberishishness do to the kid? The correct answer, I think,
is that nobody cares. What is wanted is ideological
conformity. The child's welfare is secondary. Still, think
about it: A kid plinks an android pod-monster from a bad
neighborhood in Andromeda, or yells, "Bangbang, you're dead!"
-- and he's booted from school for ten days. What then?
He's immediately pegged as a freak. Given the moral flaccidity
of everyone involved, local parents will probably forbid their
kids to play with the killer next
[CTRL] Zero tolerance
-Caveat Lector- Does it seem just a tiny bit more than a coincidence that school administrators in districts all over the land are suddenly, in unison, branding 5 and 6 year old children as being "sexual- harassers" and "potential terrorists" -- for simply being children? In the world's history, has a little boy ever tried to kiss a little girl on the cheek? Now he's guilty of sexual harassment, with a file, and probably a record. A boy maks a DRAWING of a gun, or God forbid, uses his index finger to make like a gun -- the Intelligensia running our spectacularly successful educational system brand him a potential terrorist, suspend him for 10 days, get him counselling, and this incident will travel with him the rest of his career. The Education Nazi's site their sacred "zero tolerance" policies -- (equate that with zero-IQ.) Now, where did THIS facet of Americana come from? When in our history did we have ZERO TOLERANCE for ANYTHING of this kind?? It just sprouted up, here it is, and it's an accepted, permanent factor in our day to day living. This amazing coincidence, of hundreds of these outrageous incidents of child-prosecution by heavy-handed, holier than thou school administrators, all within a very short time, seems about as coincidental as gas prices in every state jumping 10 cents 2 days before a holiday weekend.

Strange you showed no concern when a 6 year old black kid murdered a 6 year old golden haired white girl - and ditched the gun? Wonder what kind of picture that akid drew of his family life but worse yet,what was done after he took a pencil and stabbed another child prior to murdering the other.

To receive MER regularly email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] HASHEMITES CONTINUE TO COLLABORATE MID-EAST REALITIES © - www.MiddleEast.Org - Washington - 4/16: Today the Jordanian Foreign Minister goes to Israel even as Israeli bombs kill Syrians, Lebanese and Palestinians and the whole region is being humbled and shaken by the Israeli Generals, accused war criminal Ariel Sharon now in charge. Of course the Hashemite Regime has always been the most collaborationist of them all, going way back to the early days of the pre-State Zionist movement, to the days of Abdullah I and Glubb Pasha. And the recent "Arab summit" in Amman, since which time even demonstrating on behalf of the struggling Palestinians has been outlawed by the "Royal Palace", was a rather despicable display of opulence and gross impotence. As was the case long ago as well the public talk is of "peace plans", but the underlying reality is that the Hashemite Regime is primarily interesting in saving itself, enriching itself, selling itself, and controlling the Palestinians, both those who make up the majority of the citizens of today's Kingdom of Jordan and those who remain to the west of the Jordan River. Indeed, if it had not been for the connivance of the Hashemite Regime with the British and the Israelis long ago and ever since history would have likely taken very different turns not so miserable for the fractured Arab peoples. And the same can be said for modern history as well. The Egyptians have conducted themselves miserably ever since Anwar Sadat was outmanuevered and tricked at Camp David in 1978 -- essentially become political whores for the Americans in the region, collecting yearly billions and much covert under-the-table help for playing this role. But the Hashemite Regime has been playing such a role long before the Egyptians started to, the former King having actually been on the CIA payroll after London passed him off to Washington for safe-keeping. Those interested in the detailed history of the Hashemite Regime should read the book COLLABORATION ACROSS THE JORDAN by Professor Avi Shlaim at Oxford University -- at least that was the title of the first printing of this remarkably insightful book though interestingly, after the Hashemites "intervened" with the author and the publisher, the title of subsequent editions was changed. Additional information can also be found at http://www.MiddleEast.Org/jordan.htm JORDAN'S FOREIGN MINISTER BRINGING REVISED PEACE PLAN By Herb Keinon JERUSALEM POST - Jerusalem (April 16) - Jordanian Foreign Minister Abdulilah Khatib will arrive today - the highest level Arab official to arrive since the breakdown of the Camp David talks in July - and is expected to formally present an Egyptian-Jordanian proposal for restarting negotiations with the Palestinians. But Ra'anan Gissin, an adviser to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, said that unless there are serious modifications in the plan, "it will go nowhere." Khatib, who met with Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat on Thursday, is slated to meet separately with Sharon, Foreign Minister Shimon Peres, and Defense Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer in Jerusalem. Khatib is expected to be accompanied by senior Jordanian security officials. Both Sharon and Peres have already rejected the proposals in their current form.

[CTRL] Fwd: Big Brother: Welcome to OnStar. How May We Invade You?
prj list http://www.motherjones.com/web_exclusives/commentary/opinion/newshole.html Welcome to OnStar. How May We Invade You?Forget the superhighway. Privacy on the plain-old highway is the new big concern among consumer advocates. by Brooke Shelby BiggsApr 13, 2001 You shiver in fear when you sit down in front of the computer in your den, because you have heard that these things called "cookies" are secretly collecting personal information about you, and maybe some sinister fellow is lying in wait to snatch your credit-card information out of the ether. You flip off the infernal machine and climb into your big late-model land-yacht for a good old-fashioned Sunday drive. Little do you know, you may just have less privacy in your Cadillac than you do on the Web. Where Web browser cookies can track what kinds of Web sites you visit and what kind of computer you're using, new automobile information technologies such as OnStar -- which uses a global positioning system (GPS) -- can track your physical location. The handy service can unlock your car door via satellite, or help you find your way in an unfamiliar town on the middle of the night. Maybe it smacks of Big Brother if you're given to that sort of paranoia, but at least he's a really helpful brother. Get out of your car and turn on your cell phone for a casual chat, and you're back in the panopticon: if your cell phone is a relatively new model, it too has a GPS chip. That's because the 1999 Wireless Communications and Public Safety Act requires such chips in mobile phones so public safety agencies can find people in emergencies (just as dispatchers have instant access to your address when you call 911 from a land-line phone). GPS systems in your car or telephone can track the adresses you visit -- the doctor's office, the liquor store, your lover's house. At the moment, the companies that can collect this data are under no legal obligation to protect your privacy. They may sell a permanent record of your movements to marketing firms, your employer, your wife, your bitterest enemies. OnStar's privacy policy assures users that "You take privacy seriously, and so do we at OnStar. It's our way of sustaining your trust in OnStar and our products and services." But the company's privacy policy also says "we may routinely collect information, such as ... the location of your vehicle provided via satellite, or any other information, including your preferences or usage patterns." The policy does not say that the company sells or plans to sell or share such records of your wherabouts. Then again, it doesn't say it doesn't, either. Ominously, the online privacy policy ends with this: "OnStar reserves the right to alter its privacy principles as business needs require." Consumer advocates attacked Sprint for being among the first to put the federally mandated GPS chips in its cellular phones. Sprint has said it will only use the information to help police and firefighters to locate Sprint customers in emergencies. But again, there is no law requiring Sprint or any other cellular firm from collecting, storing, or selling information it may gather on the comngs and goings of its customers. This week the Center for Democracy Technology (CDT) formally asked the Federal Communications Commission to develop regulations on how "location tracking" information may be used by businesses and agencies that collect it. Alan Davidson, an attorney with the CDT, told Business Week: "Location is information that was never easily available before -- and certainly never remotely to third parties without even the target's knowledge. I don't think people realize how available the information is, and how it is already being used. We've never had a situation where information about the location of millions of people is suddenly readily available, easily and cheaply." While OnStar may decide to sell your location records to a marketing firm, that's just the beginning of the troubling potential of such technology. The CDT's Davidson points out that there's nothing to stop someone from misuing location information to stalk a former lover or kidnap a child. Is regulation on the horizon? Barely. While we wait for the FCC to address the CDT's request, the Federal Trade Commission is also expecting to take up the issue, although neither has made any commitment to date. An official with the FTC last year said that addressing privacy on wireless devices will "likely to be the next thing we have to do." Reassuring, isn't it?
Re: [CTRL] Aleisha's Stupidity (or Deliberate Terrorism) IsBeyondThePale
-Caveat Lector- Thank you Cliff - and Mary, this one publisher at Henry Regnery in 1969, a Dominick Abel, told me I had stumbled onto something significant - he also said no doubt I would be sued for at the time, who would believe that the Mafia was in bed with the CIA, and that Jean Dixon was a psuedo religious political propagandist engaged in psychological warfare. So a Mary Ferrell in Holland Texas - Bud Fensterwald of the Committee to Investigte Assassinations had me send stuff to Mary, who wanted to edit same - the last thing I heard about Mary, her son had been murdered - she used material from my book. So if anyone out there has let us say a professional author, who steals and uses your work without permission - do not feel bad...like my old friend Sybil Leek, who was MI6 - she took a lot of my research for her one book without my permission, made a lot of money, then got sued for 5 million dollars by a man named Peter Noyes.guess who got her off the hook then for she could not wait for me to send her copy of my copyright which saved her hidebut cost her $12,000 and maybe later her life.for this woman, who had many best sellers, said this bible calendar had brought trouble into her own house. I worked on on the outside; even J. Edgar Hoover told Frank Fitzsimmons of the old Teamsters Union, that I was getting stuff on my own for I had them up in arms - and Jimmy Hoffa invited me to Washington DC to meet with him for I knew he was next on list. Much to my surprise I then discovered the man who was in same cell with Hoffa for over a year, sat in a quiet room with his friends, listening to every word I was saying. So this one Agent said it would take a College Professor to understand what I was saying - one who knew about secret societies, astrology and codes, and had masonic training no doubt, etc., and with knowledge of the KKK - and I might add the KKK you will never see in the open, not the real knights. It would take someone who knows all about religion - and as a reseaher my old friend, the MI6, told me I was the best reseacher she had ever seen and met. She did however use my work without permission and was working on the bible calendar code before she died. She was the writer, but she too had an editor as do all professional writers - I had the theory, which I called a conspiracy theory and had it copyrighted as such for my own protection for I had received many threats - after the Ohio State Lantern did a story on it - you see I was getting to people who understoodo me The biggest concern I was told indirectly that once I started attaching names - say ike a Walter Lippman to this stuff, it could be very dangerous. People try to scare you off. I never professed to be a writer; when I went to IBM school to get basics on how to operate a computer, I broke the damn record at that school and got my 120 wpm certificate - and the record still holds..and that was on a typewritier. I think faster than I can type; my way often with writing may not seem clear only because I presume many understand things I say, as Cliff Hume does and as you seem to understand.

[CTRL] Blow: Bad karmaWhy the CIA dopers beat the independents

After all, even mobster John Gotti, Jr.when asked in court whether the Family still sold drugsanswered, "No, we can't compete with the government." Based on a true story with fictionalized names and Hollywood-style story changes, Blow follows the life of George Jung (Johnny Depp), who stumbled into the dope business in the late 1960s. After leaving Massachusetts, his mom obsessed with materialism (Rachel Griffiths) and his hard-working father (Ray Liotta), George ends up in Manhattan Beach, California, a Los Angeles town that was then well known for its non-stop party scene. As George comments in the voice-over, "Everyone was getting stoned," plus his new friends on the beach "all seemed to share the same occupationstewardess." So George and his friend Tuna (Ethan Suplee) meet their first connection, marijuana dealer and hairdresser Derek, (Paul Reubens), a real-life character who actually laundered his profits by fronting beauty salons in LA's South Bay. Before NAFTA and "Free Trade" were even invented, George's first scheme was to import marijuana from Mexico and distribute it to Boston area college students. He used the airline stewardesses as mules, since their luggage cleared the airport without being checked. One of the stewardesses, Barbara (Franka Potente) became the love of his lifeuntil she died of cancer. George's stoned version of the American Dream was shattered forever, but his drive to become financially independent only deepened his resolve. George's dysfunctional childhood added to the karmic stew, as he remembered how his father "slowly but surely lost everything. He went bankrupt." Memories of his father's business failure fueled his ambition. "Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust," his father told him. "It doesn't really matter. It only seems like it does." But George decided then and there, "I don't ever want to be poor." When he did get busted, sent to Danbury Federal Penitentiary, George's cellmate turned out to be an associate of Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar. In Colombia, George meets Escobar, a ruthless drug trafficker, who executes an underling right in front of him, then proceeds to calmly tell him that "the business today is cocaine" and that he "wants to find an American he can trust." They do the numbersat $10,000 per kilo, 300 kilos is $3 million. As George describes it "cocaine exploded in American culture like an atomic bomb." Cultural trendsetters, movie people, and rock stars glamorized cocaine. The media popularized the new drug of choice, and cocaine production, distribution, and the laundering of drug profits had suddenly become really Big Business. Miffed at US banks, which wanted to launder his drug profits for an exorbitant 60% surcharge, George took his money to Panama where Tony Noriega had a more favorable arrangement. George them meets and marries a volatile Colombian cokehead named Mirtha (Penelope Cruz). He tells the world that "we were young rich and in love. It was perfect." But it wasn't. The marriage exploded. He was betrayed, then double-crossed. And in the end, George Jung was sentenced to 60 years in prison. He's due to be released in 2015. George Jung, the independent drug trafficker, was in clearly over his head. He had absolutely no conception of How the Real World Works. He had no idea that, as a former US intelligence officer has said, "the CIA is the world's most efficient cocaine distributor," and therefore, as an independent, he would eventually be characterized as competition to government sanctioned narcotics traffickers. The untold story of Blow is the centralization of the cocaine trade as a vertically integrated global business. In fact, when drugs became Big Business, the "small businessman" like George Jung became nothing but expendable. That's why the DEA is aroundto quash the competition. Jung was no match for the highly-organized, well-bankrolled, government-connected drug traffickers, who launder their profits on Wall Street and work through Fortune 500 corporations. The efficiency of scale would have been inconceivable to a small-time operator like George Jung, who had unknowingly run head first into the Olympian drug cartel. The Olympians do not take lightly to encroachment on their turf. That's Planet Earth, by the way. Today, it is fair to say that the entire global economy is a money laundry, based on surreptitious illicit revenues, derived for the most part from drugs and the
[CTRL] Aries II Down: Another Technology Transfer to China
-Caveat Lector- from: http://www.almartinraw.com/column12.html Click Here: A HREF="http://www.almartinraw.com/column12.html"Al Martin Raw: Criminal Govt Conspiracy - Behin /A - NEW PAPERBACK EDITION NEW POPULAR PRICE THE CONSPIRATORS Secrets of an Iran Contra Insider BY AL MARTIN JUST $14.95 ORDER HERE by Al Martin Aries II Down: Another Technology Transfer to China In the continuing effort to make China the bogeyman of the 21st century, Washington has scored yet another coup - the loss of the EP-3E Aries II surveillance aircraft. It's very reminiscent of the phony FBI Hanssen Spy Case. In other words, what the US Government is saying just doesn't jibe with the facts. The implausible government story states that the Aries II aircraft was supposedly escorted by ancient Chinese F8 fighter planes to a Chinese military base at Hainan Island. The Aries II has an electronic counter-measure capability that could completely fry the electronic components of a state-of-the-art MIG 29, let alone a vintage Chinese F-8. Its defensive capability consists of highly advanced directional microwave weaponry. Also this US Navy aircraft uses technology that is proprietary to the National Security Agency. Most of the technology on the aircraft is electronic intercept in nature. According to Department of Defense statements, all protocols were broken. This indicates that the incident has been staged to create a deliberate transfer of this technology. This technology is so advanced that even the NSA was queasy about giving it to the Chinese. Since this technology is not proprietary to the Department of Defense and since the NSA directly controls the contractors who produce this equipment, there wasn't any way for those who are in favor of transferring this technology to China, as a matter of illegal covert State policy, to effect this transfer without staging an international incident. Therefore an incident had to be created to give the Chinese this technology. Whoever was in charge of the aircraft command must have been in on it. Otherwise they would not have had the authority to circumvent the protocols, unless directly ordered to do so. The aircraft then would either be in pieces and the crew would be floating in life rafts. Or they would all be dead. By the way, the military designation of the EP-3E Aries II aircraft is high enough that all crew members carry cyanide capsules. They must not fall into enemy hands for interrogation. And that is precisely where they are at this moment. The Department of Defense claims they know nothing -- another bogus claim, since throughout the inside of the aircraft, there is a discreet video system which continues to broadcast. The Defense Department is also trying to imply that the Chinese are jamming the signals, but what they're not saying is that the Chinese don't have the technological capability to jam these signals. These are highly advanced microburst transmissions that can even be bounced off of China's own satellites. The Chinese would not even be aware of it. Russian and Chinese equipment cannot even detect such complex microburst transmissions. The protocol on this aircraft is very simple. If there was any chance that the aircraft could fall into hostile hands, the crew is deemed to be completely expendable. The protocol can only be overridden by the President of the United States. The only logical conclusion about this incident is that it is simply an ongoing transfer of sophisticated technology to the Chinese military. First, the government had admitted that there were 24 personnel on the aircraft the "majority of which were US Navy personnel." The aircraft's has 19 operating stations, Who are the non-Navy personnel, which the government refuses to identify? Second, why did the crew not execute its emergency protocol and destroy the aircraft? The media is reporting that the crew is supposed to destroy the technology by any means necessary. What they're not saying is that the aircraft has a self-destruct mechanism already built in. It could have been completely destroyed. If it appears that the aircraft is about to fall into "hostile" hands, the normal protocol is that the self-destruct mechanism is supposed to be activated. If the aircraft is over international waters, they are supposed to actually ditch the plane and land on the water. The aircraft is built, so it can make an emergency water landing. Since the Aries II is a naval aircraft, it is built to stay afloat long enough for the crew to get out and the life rafts to automatically inflate. The aircraft also carries emergency survival equipment with an EBIRB, an emergency locating system. The protocol then would have been to either destroy the plane or land on the water, in which case, had the emergency self-destruct mechanism been rendered inoperable for any

[CTRL] Unequal Treatment
-Caveat Lector- From SF Chronicle }}Begin www.sfgate.com Return to regular view Crisis Inflames Bias Against Asians Ethnic stereotypes in broadcast, print media prompt protests Marsha Ginsberg, Chronicle Staff Writer Saturday, April 14, 2001 2001 San Francisco Chronicle URL: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi- bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/2001/04/14/MN225028.DTL Political cartoons, radio high jinks and satiric skits that feature Chinese characters with thick glasses, buck teeth and heavy Asian accents sound like a throwback to an era when American society lacked sophistication and tolerance. But these scenes played out across the country after China detained 24 Navy crew members whose spy plane collided with a Chinese fighter jet. Some observers say the backlash rivals the anti-Asian sentiments of World War II and before. "In times of conflict, it is a norm that any country will ridicule the other. It happens all over the world," said Federico Subervi, an associate professor in the communications department at the University of Texas at Austin. "But it's more about politics. It's the policy, not the people. This is ridiculing the people." Especially disconcerting, experts said, is the fact the stereotypes have emerged in the news media -- whose organizations of late stress diversity within their ranks. Among the recent incidents was a skit during a meeting of top newspaper editors. BAY AREA BROADCAST Even the Bay Area, where Asian Americans are about 20 percent of the population and where people pride themselves on tolerance, has not been immune. Radio talk show host Don Bleu spoofed the spy-plane standoff April 6 in what he called a "fry over." He then called a restaurant in China and teased the person who answered, who apparently could not speak English, as music from the Oscar-winning Chinese film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" played in the background, according to listeners. Listener Christine Rivera said she called Bleu's station, Star 101.3 FM, to complain that she was "repulsed and offended by these ignorant remarks." The station offered a "generic apology," she said. The stunt prompted Philip Ting, president of the Organization of Chinese Americans in San Francisco, to call for a public apology. "Xenophobic climates lead to persecution, hate crimes and murder," he wrote in a letter to the station. "Your insensitivity to throwing more fuel on this fire is all too glaring." Neither Bleu nor station managers could be reached for comment yesterday. DISTURBING INCIDENTS Ting said that elsewhere in America, radio commentators have called for Chinese American internment. A station in Springfield, Ill., suggested boycotting Chinese restaurants. Another commentator called people with Chinese last names and harassed them. Outspoken Pulitzer Prize winning cartoonist Pat Oliphant, who once said political correctness "drives me crazy," enraged Asian Americans with a cartoon that appeared this week in many Bay Area newspapers. The cartoon, which The Chronicle declined to run, portrays a buck-toothed Chinese waiter delivering cat gizzard noodles to a customer who concedes he had been "slowly getting used to doing business with China." The waiter trips, dumping noodles on the head of the customer, who says the waiter must have been waiting for an apology. The waiter jumps up and down while saying, "Apologize Lotten Amellican!" The customer, who gets up in a huff and leaves, is Uncle Sam. OLIPHANT ACCUSED The 1,700 member Asian American Journalists Association said Oliphant's work "crossed the line from acerbic depiction to racial caricature" and yesterday demanded that he stop using racial stereotypes in his work. Editorial cartoonists are given some leeway in material, association President Victor Panichkul said, but "this in no way excuses base ethnic insult. Gross racial parodies cannot be explained away as merely 'tart' opinion." Oliphant, a nationally syndicated cartoonist, could not be reached to comment. EDITORS LAUGH AT SKIT Another glaring example of racial stereotyping was a skit during the opening of last week's American Society of Newspaper Editors convention. The skit, by the renowned Washington, D.C., satirical troupe Capitol Steps, featured a white man dressed in a black wig and thick glasses impersonating a Chinese official who gestured wildly as he said, "ching, ching, chong, chong." The room full of top editors, predominantly Caucasian, laughed heartily. But Amy Leang, a Chinese American student photographer assigned to the cover the skit, saw no humor in it. Leang said she was so upset by the incident that she awoke the next morning crying. She was encouraged by members of ASNE to write a story about the experience, portions of which were cited in news stories nationwide. Experts said the skit was well out of bounds. "Here we have the leading opinion makers -- the ones who dictate what goes into the papers -- laughing like a bunch of 5-year-olds," said Helen Zia, an East Bay author

E. Brown favors encouraging private companies to sell water. MIAMI, Tex. The dirt road winds through the gray hills of T. Boone Pickens's sprawling Mesa Vista Ranch when an unlikely swath of green grass appears like an emerald in a sandbox. It is a lushly irrigated two-hole golf course, a playpen for a wealthy man, and a reminder that beneath this bleak, isolated terrain lies one of the prime untapped reserves of water in Texas. And Mr. Pickens, the former oilman and corporate raider whose takeover bids once struck terror in boardrooms, has more in mind for the Mesa Vista than golf. At a time when nearly every major city in Texas is desperate for more water to meet runaway population growth, Mr. Pickens is proposing to pump tens of billions of gallons to the highest bidder. "Water is the lifeblood of West Texas," said Mr. Pickens, 72, who is courting Fort Worth, Dallas, San Antonio and El Paso as potential customers and estimates that a deal could reap $1 billion. "They've got to get it somewhere." For decades the gold beneath the ground in Texas was oil. But if oil built modern Texas, water is now needed to sustain it. Water has become so valuable that a complicated scramble is under way for the rights to underground aquifers, reminiscent of the days when "land men," among them a young George W. Bush, solicited rural landowners to drill for oil. There are even "water ranches" popping up around the state. The unanswered question is whether all this activity will skew who gets water and who does not in the future, or influence how much it will cost. In many parts of the country, water is considered a life-sustaining public resource. So there are already public policy concerns about whether pumping water for profit could threaten supply in some areas. Rural officials fear that large cities could simply outbid them in a profit-driven market. And Texas law offers few restrictions; groundwater is considered private property, and any landowner can pump the water out even if it leaves neighbors high and dry. "You're going to devastate a large part of the state of Texas," said Tom Beard, a rancher who said he feared that arid West Texas could be pumped dry by water ranches owned by distant cities. "I'm not sure we can afford to treat water like cotton or cattle. And certainly not like oil. The approach to oil was to pump it up, use it up and do something else. We can't do that with water." Throughout the country, drought and population growth have placed a premium on water. Such demand is amplified in Texas after four droughts in five years. The state's population is 20.8 million, second only to California's, and demographers predict that it will double in 50 years. Already, El Paso must find new sources of water or it could run out in 20 years. The Rio Grande, a primary water source for counties along the Mexican border, is so dry that this month it failed for the first time in 50 years to reach the Gulf of Mexico, stopping 50 feet short. Until now, Texas has largely avoided the contentious political fights over water familiar to Western states like Arizona. But the Texas Legislature is considering a sweeping piece of legislation known as Senate Bill 2 that could determine how water is regulated and what is done to meet demand in the state for the next half-century. Regional water planning groups have proposed $17 billion in public works projects, conservation efforts and irrigation improvements. Lawmakers say it could cost at least $80 billion to upgrade the state's aging municipal water systems. The political debate is complicated. Environmentalists want more conservation and tougher regulation, as opposed to new dams and aggressive pumping of groundwater. There are the competing demands of agriculture and urban areas. There are also differing needs and climates in the state's various regions, some of which depend on reservoirs and other surface sources while others depend on
[CTRL] SNET: TEN TIPS ON HOW TO LIVE IN THE New World Order (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- visit my web site at http://www.voicenet.com/~wbacon My ICQ# is 79071904 -- Forwarded message -- Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2001 13:40:14 -0400 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: SNET: TEN TIPS ON HOW TO LIVE IN THE "New World Order" - SNETNEWS Mailing List http://www.newdawnmagazine.com.au/Articles/10_tips_NWO.html TEN TIPS ON HOW TO LIVE IN THE NEW WORLD ORDER 1. WATCH LOTS OF TELEVISION. Television pleasantly induces mental stupor, telling you all you need to know. If it wasnt on the nightly news, then it definitely isnt true. 2 AVOID TALKING ABOUT RELIGION OR POLITICS. No matter how innocuous your speech may be, it could be misinterpreted and recorded in your Government Personal Thought Dossier. 3. DEBATE TOPICS PROMOTED BY NWO-SPONSORED MEDIA. Example: Discuss the pros and cons of government under Labor or Liberal (or Democrat/Republican or Tory/Labor) while ignoring real issues like the economy and sovereignty already sold out to foreign interests by self-serving politicians doing the bidding of powerful transnational corporations. 4. PARTICIPATE IN NWO-SPONSORED FEEL GOOD PROGRAMS. Theres disasters all over the world and you seem hopeless to do anything about it: Why not partake in NWO-sanctioned programs like Walk for Want or 40 Hour Famine and even buy an Amnesty International Sticker for your car, while the agents of the NWO wreak havoc in parts of the world youve hardly ever heard of. 5. WORK, EAT, ENTERTAIN, AND SEEK MEDICAL HELP AT NWO-SPONSORED OUTLETS. Always buy NWO-manufactured grocery items preferably from large supermarkets. Growing your own veges or purchasing organically grown produce affects the profit margins of NWO corporations. Safely entertain yourself by religiously viewing sports events, mindless TV shows/movies, as well as trivia and illusion-filled books and magazines. Listen to any type of mind-numbing music spewed forth by the corporations of the NWO. If you get sick, refrain from alternative cures or therapy, and always seek medical help at NWO-sponsored hospitals or clinics and take whatever medicines and drugs you are given. 6. READ, HEAR AND WATCH NWO-MANDATED MEDIA. Exploring alternative media might result in dangerous thought crimes against the NWO authorities. Disregard any ideas or reports not originating with NWO media as conspiracy theory. 7. MEMORISE THE OPINIONS OF NWO LEADERS AND TELEVISION NEWS REPORTERS. Reiterate them as if they were your own during all social and business conversations. 8. HYPOCRISY IS THE SAFEST POLICY. And affiliations with State-approved religious organisations are permitted, and may be rich fields for business contacts. 9. WATCH OTHERS AND MAKE SURE THEY DO THE SAME AS YOU. Keep an eye on neighbours, friends and family to ascertain they are obeying the law. Always call the NWO authorities if you suspect any wrongdoing. Participate in dob-in programs. If ever confronted by someone who questions NWO policies, its best to convince them ignorance is bliss. If the case is serious, immediately seek help from NWO psychiatrists. 10. WILLINGLY AND HAPPILY participate in all NWO school indoctrination programs. Realise the honour associated with being a breeder and caretaker of the next generation to SERVE THE MASTERS in the NEW WORLD ORDER. - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ==^ EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?b1ddDh.b2mv8T Or send an email To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This email was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] T O P I C A -- Learn More.

[CTRL] Fwd: Who is George W. Bush?
http://www.newdawnmagazine.com.au/Articles/Elite_Controllers__Hidden_Agendas.html Who is George W. Bush? BY SUSAN BRYCE He grew up as a very rich child with powerful parents. He partied from high school until he was 40 then went cold turkey on drugs and alcohol. His business career was marked by mediocrity or failure that nonetheless resulted making him millions of dollars thanks to the political allies of his father, who happened to be the US President. He was elected 46th governor of Texas mostly because of his family name and his dads cronies. He found God and became a Christian. Now, George W. Bush is the 43rd president of the United States. The Bush administration is a combination of Cold War warriors, big business bureaucrats and ideologues, harvested from the Ford, Nixon and Reagan governments. As veterans of past Republican administrations their thinking reflects a bygone era, particularly with respect to social policy, the environment and nuclear defence. Many of Bushs appointees are pals from his days as Governor of Texas, or are members of influential insider think tanks such as the Council on Foreign Relations and the Centre for Strategic and International Studies. This article provides a brief analysis of the key players in the Bush team, their backgrounds, their policies and their likely agendas over the next four years. President George Walker Bush Bushs name is a familiar one in the ranks of Americas top leadership: George W. Bush is the oldest son of George Herbert Walker Bush, the 41st president. The only other set of father-son presidents came early in US history when John Quincy Adams, son of the second president, John Adams, became the sixth president in 1825. Bush Jr. attended Eastern elitist schools, in this case Andover Prep, and Yale. According to a Newsweek profile, he went to Yale but seems to have majored in drinking at the Deke House. He became a member of the secretive Skull Bones society in 1968. George W. Bush joins a recent parade of state governors (Carter, Reagan, and Clinton) who have moved up to the highest office in the country. Bush was elected Governor of Texas in 1994. He and his brother Jeb Bush (elected in Florida in 1998) were the first brothers to be simultaneous governors since the Rockefellers. Before becoming Governor of Texas, George Bush was involved in the Texan oil scene, where he founded an oil company, Arbusto Energy, Inc. (Arbusto is the Spanish word for bush.) The company floundered in the early 1980s when oil prices dropped. Fifty investors, who were mainly family friends, sunk millions to help bail the company out. Nearing collapse, Arbusto was purchased by Spectrum 7 Energy Corporation in September 1984. Despite a poor track record, the owners made Bush Jr. the president and gave him 13.6% of the parent companys stock. The Spectrum 7 oil firm company was owned by two staunch Reagan/Bush (dad was then vice president) supporters, who were also involved with the Texas Rangers. After working on his fathers successful 1988 presidential campaign, Bush assembled a group of partners that purchased the Texas Rangers baseball franchise in 1989. He sold his stake for $14.9 million while Texas governor. Not bad, considering his initial investment was $600,000 of borrowed money. Speaking after the sale, Bush told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram: When it is all said and done, I will have made more money than I ever dreamed I would make. In 1986, the Harken Energy Corporation bought Spectrum 7s 180-well operation. In 1990, Harken Energy was granted a contract to drill for oil off the coast of the Gulf state of Bahrain, shunting aside the oil giant Amoco, even though the company had no experience in offshore operations. Suggestions that the Bahrain government was attempting to curry favour with the US president, George Bush Snr, were denied. A Harken Energy director was invited to participate in private White House briefings on Middle East policy, and in May 1990 Harken learned that Washington was considering an oil embargo of Iraq. In June, Bush Jr. conveniently sold 212,000 of his Harken shares, raking in more than $848,500. In August, US intelligence agencies, in full propaganda mode, reported that Iraqi troops had invaded Kuwait and the value of Harkens shares dropped 25%. During the 2000 presidential election campaign, various allegations about Bushs past misdemeanours surfaced. They include: an alleged conviction for drunk driving; an allegation that Bush halted investigation of a campaign contributors

[CTRL] JOKE
Man goes to see the Rabbi. "Rabbi, something terrible is happening and I have to talk to you about it." The Rabbi asked, "What's wrong?" The man replied, "My wife is poisoning me." The Rabbi, very surprised by this, asks, "How can that be?" The man then pleads, "I'm telling you, I'm certain she's poisoning me, what should I do?" The Rabbi then offers, "Tell you what. Let me talk to her, I'll see what I can find out and I'll let you know." A week later the Rabbi calls the man and says, "Well, I spoke to your wife. I spoke to her on the phone for three hours. You want my advice?" The man anxiously says, "Yes." "Take the poison," says the Rabbi.

[CTRL] Fw: [DU-WATCH]
-Caveat Lector- The Sunday Herald (Scotland) 15 April 2001 Global spread of DU reaches food chain By Torcuil Crichton and Felicity Arbuthnot Publication Date: Apr 15 2001 Depleted uranium from shells fired by British and American forces during the Balkan wars has found its way into the food chain and has been detected among the civilian populations of Kosovo and Bosnia. A study of the local population in three locations in the two Balkan regions has found samples of the highly radio active particles in the urine of all those tested. The investigation comes amid growing concern about the possible effects of depleted uranium in the Balkans both on foreign troops and on the local population. A survey for the Sunday Herald has found that depleted-uranium weaponry has been used or tested in 41 countries worldwide. They range from Britain - where DU shells are test-fired on the Solway Firth - to Japan, where unauthorised firing by the United States military led to a massive clean-up operation. Eleven of the countries affected by DU are in the Balkans. Nato warplanes dropped 10,000 rounds of DU ammunition in Bosnia in 1994 and 1995. Soldiers from several troop-contributing countries - including Italy, Portugal and France - have fallen ill with what is being called Balkan syndrome but this is the first time that the civilian population has been tested for contamination. Spain has reported at least eight cases of cancer among personnel deployed in Bosnia and Kosovo. Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Italy and Poland are among other countries to have acknowledged a problem. There was an outcry in Portugal when Hugo Paulino, a young corporal, died of cancer three weeks after returning from duty in Kosovo. The health of returning Italian personnel was of such concern that five different regions have appointed senior judiciary to open inquiries. The civilian study was carried out by Professor Nick Priest of Middlesex University, for E rpa, BBC Scotland's European-affairs programme. It looked at people in one location in Bosnia and two locations in Kosovo. "So far, all the results for every single one of the samples collected in Kosovo is showing some depleted uranium in the urine," he said. "That is completely abnormal because normally you would expect no DU to be in the urine samples." Priest's conclusion was that it was likely that the metal was present in the food chain. The study did not investigate possible health problems. Previous studies have found no evidence of a link, although a recent United Nations report acknowledged that there remain "considerable scientific uncertainties". Despite that concern, a proposed voluntary testing programme for Kosovan civilians has been shelved following the intervention of the World Health Organisation. Campaigners against the use of DU, which will remain radioactive for four-and-a-half billion years, argue the tiny particles of DU dust emitted from shell explosions will still be mutating genetics of fauna, flora and humanity "when the sun goes out". Teenager Vlora Marleku told the programme makers: "I am worried. I don't know what to say. This is something that touches you very deeply." Civilian populations and refugees returning to the Balkans are also experiencing severe health problems, according to local reports. Journalist Svetlana Stankovic Lala of Greece's Athens News said: "In Kosovska Mitrovica, [in the] north of Kosovo, the number of malignant diseases increased 200% in 2000 compared to 1998, the year before the bombing." Doctors in the area estimate that birth deformities have increased by 250% over 1998 figures. Dr Aleksandra Veljovic, of the Cancer Foundation in Yugoslavia, talked of "a doubling of incidence of cancer" by June 2000 - exactly a year after the war's end. In January 2000, she said, "almost 2000 people died from a flu pandemic, corpses [remained unburied] for 10 or more days and in numbers from pneumonia". Like Iraq, medication and facilities were unavailable due to sanctions. Like Iraq, an epidemic occurred shortly after the bombing. In Iraq, at least 5000 people died of measles within months of the end of the Gulf war. Radiation damages the immune system - a link that the Gulf veterans have made with their proven immune deficiencies. No studies have been made in bordering countries, although there are concerns that radiation travels via the wind, water and fauna. An A-10 Thunderbolt, which carries DU weapons, crashed in Albania. A missile thought to be carrying DU landed in Bulgaria. Another landed in Macedonia, which has hosted nearly one million refugees and has already removed 10 tonnes of DU-contaminated topsoil from its border region. Britain's Ministry of Defence insisted that the levels of depleted uranium found in the tests for
[CTRL] Tax-reform drive building up steam
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Tax-reform drive building up steam Nonprofit group champions legislation to mothball IRS -- -- By Julie Foster 2001 WorldNetDaily.com As Americans' irritation with the income tax reaches a fevered pitch, a group of citizen activists work to spread "good news": There is another way for the government to collect revenue without prying into individuals' personal finances and without the filing of confusing, sometimes lengthy forms. It's called the "Fair Tax," and its most ardent supporter is a group called Americans for Fair Taxation. The concept is simple: Charge consumers a tax on non-essential purchases at a rate relative to the current income tax, while removing the current wage-based tax system altogether. But there's a complicated side, as well -- informing a public living in an income-tax culture that the Fair Tax exists and that it is a viable option. While the concept is in legislative form in Congress, the Fair Tax movement is about more than passing a particular piece of legislation. It is a movement spurred on by people who believe an income tax is inherently unfair and un-American. They are people who don't just want tax relief -- they want tax reform. And they're not politicians. Danny Clark is a truck driver from Georgia who spends most of his time on the road. But that doesn't stop him from spreading the word about the Fair Tax. Clark has been known to spark so much interest in the issue over his radio communications with other truckers, that it is not uncommon for inquirers to meet him at truck stops for the printed information Clark carries with him. Indeed, if there is Fair Tax literature at a truck stop, it was likely Clark who put it there. But Georgians don't just get their Fair Tax information at truck stops. Americans for Fair Taxation State Director David Klepinger is a self-employed entrepreneur who uses his adaptable schedule to plug tax reform in between his business obligations. Using his own money, Klepinger flies to national conventions to place Fair Tax literature into the hands of attendees. Another self-employed Fair Tax advocate is Robin Cyr, AFT district director in Maine. Cyr makes his living repairing appliances. So committed is Cyr to tax reform that he has spent $200 of his own money to buy radio air time for Fair Tax promotional information, and gave another $1,500 to help AFT pay for a national magazine ad. But he spends more than money; he also spends his time -- logging countless hours in various online chat rooms in the evenings, informing participants about the Fair Tax. Tax reformers aren't just businessmen. AFT's Wisconsin District Director Al Ose has made it his mission to connect headlines from current events to the issue of tax reform, which affects practically every aspect of life, activists say. He has written dozens of letters on the subject, and last year, he participated in a neighborhood parade with his daughter, where he passed out literature on the Fair Tax. Holding regular meetings to help educate his community about tax reform, Ose's enthusiasm is representative of the passion that drives tax reformers. And the movement is catching on. In the last year, AFT's online-community membership has increased seven-fold, and its membership via mail has grown by over 150,000. The group has nearly doubled its financial contributors and has identified, trained and assisted over 100 new district and state directors as volunteers, according to Carrie Ardelian, AFT's vice president of field operations. And the manpower is showing results. Over the last 12 months, AFT has generated over 30,000 phone calls and tens of thousands of e-mails to congressional offices in support of the Fair Tax and delivered thousands of postcards to the White House, urging the president's support of fundamental tax reform. Leaders of the movement have appeared on affiliate TV stations from every major television network, have been featured on over 2,000 talk-radio stations across the country and have appeared or been featured in over 25 print publications. Now boasting a membership of over 400,000, AFT is a 501c(4) nonprofit, non-partisan organization founded in May 1995. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, the organization also has an office in Washington, D.C., where it conducts tax-reform lobbying and testifies before Congress. While the movement is based on tax reform, namely the elimination of the income tax, AFT has championed a specific bill in Congress appropriately titled the Fair Tax Act. Known as H.R. 2525 in the 106th Congress, the bill was reintroduced in the 107th Congress last week, though the new bill number is not yet reflected in the Congressional Record. As with H.R. 2525, the bill is sponsored by Rep. John Linder,
[CTRL] Here's the next level of nuclear weapons
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Here's the next level of nuclear weapons Reuters (Washington, April 15) THE PENTAGON is studying whether to develop a nuclear bomb that would be capable of knocking out hardened or deeply buried targets without huge collateral damage, the Washington Post reported on Sunday. Citing administration and congressional sources, the newspaper said officials are looking at whether to build a low-yield nuclear weapon with an earth-penetrating nose cone as a way to hit underground leadership bunkers and command centers. Rising concern that Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein could hide chemical and biological weapons in underground bunkers has heightened interest in such weapons, the Post said. Key proponents include nuclear weapons scientists and top members of the Bush administration, according to the Post. A senior adviser to Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was quoted as saying that current US nuclear weapons would not deter the Iraqi leader "because he knows a US president would not drop a 100-kiloton bomb on Baghdad." The Post said the head of the Department of Energy's Sandia Nuclear Laboratories has written that "low-yield weapons with highly accurate delivery systems" could help US officials "contemplate the destruction of some buried or hidden targets while being mindful of the need to minimize collateral damage." The Post said critics argue that such a weapon would not be able to penetrate deep enough to keep radioactive debris from getting into the atmosphere. The report on the Pentagon study was due to be sent to Congress in July, the Post said. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.

[CTRL] Taiwan leader presses for weapons
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Sunday, 15 April 2001 11:44 (ET) Taiwan leader presses for weapons By FAITH HUNG TAIPEI, Taiwan, April 15 (UPI) -- In a meeting with a delegation of U.S. Senators, Taiwan's President Chen Shui-bian asked the United States to approve the sales of advanced defense weapons. Chen told Republican Senators Phil Gramm of Texas, Bob Bennett of Utah, Jim Bunning of Kentucky and Mike Crapo of Idaho that the weapons are necessary to help the island preserve a military balance with China. "The cross-strait security not only serves the interests of Taiwan, but those of the United States," he told the delegation, which visited Taipei after an original scheduled visit to mainland China was nixed due to the stand-off between Beijing and Washington. "China could achieve air and sea superiority over Taiwan by 2005," warned Chen. There are growing fears that Taiwan may not be able to get the weapons it wants as the Bush Administration now takes a more cautious attitude after the spy plane collision or Beijing uses the incident to pressure Washington, observes said. Several senators and representatives said Sunday that the recent incident over the spy plane has boosted Taiwan's chances for getting sophisticated weapons. The most significant part of the arms deal is destroyers equipped with the Aegis radar system, which tracks missiles, aircraft, ships and submarines and programs weapons to hit them. Taiwan is also seeking to buy Apache attack helicopters, an advanced Patriot anti-missile system known as PAC-3, and submarines. A decision by the Bush administration is slated for later this month about whether to sell Taiwan the weapons. China and Taiwan split in 1949. Since then, the Chinese leaders have insisted Taiwan is part of the mainland that can't be separated. -- Copyright 2001 by United Press International.

[CTRL] U.S. Signals Tough Stance at China Meeting
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Monday April 16 3:01 PM ET U.S. Signals Tough Stance at China Meeting By Steve Holland WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States on Monday signaled a tough stance going into a meeting with China on their dispute over a downed spy plane, insisting that U.S. surveillance flights will be resumed soon. Officials from the two sides are scheduled to meet on Wednesday in Beijing to discuss the flights. A mid-air collision between a Chinese fighter shadowing a U.S. EP-3 spy plane triggered an 11-day standoff between the two countries. White House spokesman Ari Fleischer (news - web sites) said the U.S. side will make clear it feels the Chinese pilot caused the April 1 accident by flying too close to the U.S. plane. Fleischer told reporters the U.S. team would ``ask tough questions'' to the Chinese about the manner in which they ''dangerously intercepted'' the U.S. surveillance plane. He said: ``The agenda as far as the United States is concerned is to provide a clear and graphic explanation of the U.S. view of the cause of the accident, and discuss ways of avoiding similar accidents in the future.'' They will also ask for the return of the damaged EP-3 plane. Fleischer insisted the flights will resume but the timing was unclear. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld will make a recommendation to President Bush (news - web sites), who will then make the final decision. ``They could resume at any time, whenever the president makes the determination,'' Fleischer told reporters. A defense official said the flights are likely to resume shortly but that Rumsfeld had as yet made a recommendation to Bush. ``It seems prudent to wait for the talks'' to decide how and when to proceed, the official said. The EP-3 planes typically fly about 50 miles off the Chinese coast in international airspace. The Chinese government says the flights come too close. The State Department said the outcome of the meeting could well set the tone for U.S.-Chinese relations. ``We have made quite clear that we think a productive meeting can set the basis for a further relationship and on the other hand a polemical meeting would give us some indication of how they might or might not intend to proceed with the relationship,'' said State Department spokesman Richard Boucher. He said the meeting might last two days. FIGHTER ESCORTS FOR SPY PLANES? Under discussion within the administration has been whether to have U.S. fighter jets escort the EP-3 flights to chase off intercepting Chinese jets, a potentially provocative step. One possible source of U.S. fighter jets for that purpose is the U.S. aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk, which is based in Yokosuka, Japan, but U.S. defense officials said there were no plans to involve the carrier. They said it was sailing away from China on Monday to take part in exercises near Guam and that there were no plans to move it where it could launch fighter jets to protect reconnaissance flights off China's coast. The officials, who asked not to be identified, were responding to a Washington Post report quoting Navy officials as saying the Kitty Hawk was sailing in the direction of the South China Sea off China. A senior defense official, who asked not to be identified, told Reuters the delegation would essentially discuss three issues with the Chinese: Who was responsible for the accident; possible ways to prevent such incidents in the future, and China's plan to formally demand that the flights be stopped. Adding to U.S. concern before the talks have been dramatic accounts by members of the 21 men and three women who were aboard the EP-3 plane, including the pilot, Lt. Shane Osborne, who say the Chinese jet flew so close it clipped a propeller. The Chinese jet fell in pieces while the badly damaged American plane survived a harrowing 8,000-foot (about 2,500 meters) drop and managed to land without permission on China's Hainan Island. The crew was held there for 11 days until the United States said it was ``very sorry'' for the loss of the Chinese pilot and for having to make an unscheduled landing on Chinese territory. ``Once the aircraft started going out of control, I think pretty much everybody on the aircraft thought they were going to die at some point,'' said crew member Lt. Patrick Honeck on Sunday on CBS' ``Face the Nation.'' The U.S. delegation to the talks will be headed by Acting Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Pete Virga and will include both Pentagon (news - web sites) and State Department officials. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U.

[CTRL] U.S. Could Use Fighter Jets to Protect Reconnaissance Flights
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Carrier May Move to S. China Sea U.S. Could Use Fighter Jets to Protect Reconnaissance Flights By Thomas E. Ricks Washington Post Staff Writer Monday, April 16, 2001; Page A04 A U.S. aircraft carrier may be moved to a position in the South China Sea where it could launch fighter jets to protect U.S. reconnaissance flights off China's coast when those flights resume, Navy officials said yesterday. The flights may resume as early as Thursday in international airspace about 50 miles off the Chinese coast, officials indicated. Depending on the Chinese reaction, the addition of U.S. warplanes to the mix could lead to new confrontations or signal the resumption of routine military operations. U.S. and Chinese officials are scheduled to meet Wednesday in Beijing to discuss the flights, which the Chinese government says come too close but the United States says are routine missions conducted in international airspace. The meeting was scheduled as part of the diplomatic exchange that led to Wednesday's release of the 24 crew members of a Navy EP-3E. That plane made a heart-stopping emergency landing on China's Hainan Island after it was badly damaged in a collision with a Chinese fighter aircraft April 1. At the Beijing meeting, China is expected to ask that the flights be moved farther off its coast or stopped altogether, a Defense Department official said. The United States plans to respond that it intends to continue the flights, he said. China rejected again yesterday the U.S. contention that a Chinese fighter pilot was responsible for the crash that killed him. "They must assume their responsibility," said Wang Zhen, China's ambassador to Venezuela, where Chinese President Jiang Zemin was making the last stop of a Latin American tour. "They crashed into us, our pilot is dead and the family of this poor pilot is crying every day. Who is responsible? The U.S." The USS Kitty Hawk, which carries about 70 aircraft, recently passed Singapore and yesterday passed through the southern Philippines, a Navy official said last night. By the time the Beijing meeting occurs, the ship could be ready to send up fighters to support the reconnaissance flights, but only if it soon receives an order to reverse course, a Navy official said. Adm. Dennis C. Blair, U.S. military commander for the Pacific, last week suggested three possible courses of action to the Bush administration, an official said: Send the Kitty Hawk on a slow, northward track through the South China Sea; tell it to linger farther south of the Philippines; or keep it on its planned course toward Guam. The ship currently is continuing toward Guam, an official said last night. "Blair recommended different options that could or could not send a message, depending on how they wanted to play it," a Pentagon official said, confirming the other official's account. Blair did not recommend that the F-14s and F/A-18 fighters actually escort the U.S. reconnaissance planes, a third official emphasized. That's because the United States wants to underscore its view that the flights aren't acts of underhanded espionage, but legal and overt movements though international airspace, said a Navy official in Washington. "Our view is that the flights are so benign that they don't need escorts," he said. Rather, he indicated that if the White House approves, the Navy fighters would fly farther off the Chinese coast than the reconnaissance planes, perhaps 100 miles away. "The thinking isn't to intercept the interceptors," another official emphasized. The United States sends about 200 reconnaissance flights a year near China's coasts, a Chinese military official said. The Chinese send up fighter aircraft to intercept about one-third of those flights, Pentagon officials report. Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said at a Pentagon news conference Friday that "in recent months there have been 44 [People's Liberation Army] interceptions of U.S. surveillance and reconnaissance flights off the coast of China." The Kitty Hawk, based in Yokosuka, Japan, is part of Carrier Battle Group Five, which includes several other ships. The battle group is commanded by Rear Adm. Robert F. Willard, a career aviator who was the aerial coordinator for "Top Gun," the Tom Cruise movie about Navy fighter pilots that culminates in an aerial confrontation at sea. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U.

[CTRL] Last Warning: China Ready to Take Taiwan in 2002
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Last Warning: China Ready to Take Taiwan in 2002 Dr. Alexandr Nemets and Dr. Thomas Torda Monday, April 16, 2001 China is fast developing its naval and war capabilities to engage in a major war in Asia with the purpose of taking Taiwan by the fall of 2002. Two respected analysts report that shipments of advanced Russian military equipment will be delivered and in place by late next year. The experts believe China's plans have already put it on a confrontation course with its neighbors, and a collision course with the U.S. What has happened during the last two weeks has surprised many experts, let alone persons having limited knowledge about China. The first question: How did it happen? The incident involving the U.S. EP-3 did not happen in a vacuum, but was instead one incident in a spate of aggressive moves by the Chinese military. During 2000 and the first months of 2001, China was steadily increasing its military presence in the airspace and waters between the mainland coast and the First Island Chain, formed by Japan, Taiwan and the Philippines. The goal of this activity is to push out all other countries' forces â significantly the U.S. Air Force and Navy â and to establish unlimited Chinese control in this strategically and economically important zone. This, by the way, would facilitate China's People's Liberation Army air force (PLAAF) and navy (PLAN) actions in a forthcoming conflict around Taiwan. The Japanese navy and Philippines navy, indeed, have physically felt the drastic rise of PLAN pressure in the East China Sea and South China Sea, respectively, over the last few months. So, direct collision of Chinese and U.S. forces at some moment was unavoidable. A U.S. Navy vessel managed to escape a collision with a PLAN frigate on March 24, but another collision â between a Chinese fighter and a U.S. reconnaissance plane â did occur. The second, probably more important question: Why have the Chinese been conducting such bold maneuvers against the U.S. and others? Indeed, the Chinese side behaved in a surprisingly bold manner during the months preceding the collision, during the collision itself, and in the showdown with the U.S. administration after the incident. There are two major reasons for China's increasing belligerence: 1) China has a mighty strategic rear, i.e., Russia, whose leaders firmly support any PLA action aimed at expansion and confrontation with the U.S. In July of this year, China and Russia intend to sign a Treaty on Friendship and Cooperation, and will formalize their strategic military alliance. In fact, this new military axis between Beijing and Moscow has been in de facto existence since about mid-1999. The new treaty prescribes, among other items, "joint resistance to the aggression against either of the two sides." This particularly means unconditional support of China by the Russian side â with all resources available â in the case of a Sino-U.S. military conflict. Such a position of the Russian side was confirmed in a telephone call between Jiang Zemin and Putin in mid-January this year. Talks between these two supreme leaders takes place on a regular basis after their summit in July 2000. The strongly negative attitude of the Kremlin to the U.S., especially toward the present U.S. administration, gives Chinese leaders "unshakable confidence" in Russian support. 2) PLA combat potential has increased very significantly during the last two years, and Russian military-technological assistance was the decisive factor here. Particularly: a) It is common knowledge among analysts that China's PLAAF and PLAN aviation received hundreds, not "several dozen," of Russia's modern fighters and bombers. By early April 2001, the PLA finished, or almost finished, staffing three fighter divisions with SU-series fighters. Each division includes up to 72 Chinese-made and Russian-made SU-27 SK, SU-27 UB, and/or SU-30 MKK fighters. This was achieved due to the work in the "prewar period regime" of key aircraft industry enterprises in China and Russia during the last 12-18 months. In addition, the PLA now has at least four divisions staffed with drastically upgraded â based on Russian technology â J-8 II M fighters. Though each fighter of this kind is still inferior to an F-16 fighter, two of them are capable of downing one F-16. Upgrading of several hundred J-7 fighters also adds to PLAAF potential. All the fighters are equipped with Russian-made or Russian-technology-based air-to-air missiles (AAMs) and air-to-ground missiles (AGMs). b) By April 2001, the PLA deployed in the coastal zone from Beijing to Hong Kong a theater missile defense (TMD) network, including the following Russian air-defense missile (ADM) systems: up to 30 systems (battalions) of S-300 ADMs (12 ADM launchers, capable

[CTRL] Bush's Mistake on Medical 'Privacy'
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Bush's Mistake on Medical 'Privacy' Christopher Ruddy Monday, April 16, 2001 With the brouhaha with China filling the airwaves and captivating our national attention span, many probably missed the fact that President Bush approved sweeping changes to medical privacy rules proposed by Bill Clinton. Bushâs move, which came Thursday and barely blipped on media radar screens Friday, will have important implications for all Americans and their confidential medical records. Bushâs decision came as a surprise. On Monday of last week, Secretary of Health and Human Services Thompson told a press conference that his office had been swamped by public comments and that the HHS would need more time beyond the April 14 deadline to consider more than 1,500 pages of new regulations Clinton proposed over the Christmas holiday. President Bush decided to override Thompson and ordered him to adopt the Clinton rule changes and to implement them without delay. Bush said "for the first time, patients will have full access to their medical records and more control over how their personal information will be used and disclosed." "This rule will help address patientsâ growing concerns regarding medical privacy," the president said in a statement. In several reports on NewsMax.com, we have been warning the opposite â that the Clinton rule changes would do precisely the opposite of what Clinton and now Bush have claimed. We have reported, after reviewing the regulations, that the new regulations would permit: Government agencies and bureaucrats to have access to your medical files â even if you paid for the services yourself. Government to require all of your medical records to be stored electronically for easy access Without your consent, the government to release your medical records to others, including insurance companies, drug manufacturers, marketing and other "third parties" â all without your consent! Government to assign all citizens a UPI number, a "unique patient identifier," which will be used to track your medical history from birth to death. The effect of the regulations are clearcut, according to the Association of American Physicians and Doctors (AAPS), one of the most respected medical groups. It was AAPS that successfully sued Hillary Clinton over her Health Care Plan. Now AAPS has taken the lead to stop these regulations. Guess who is supporting the new Clinton-Bush regulations? The two most vocal supporters in the U.S. Senate for the regulations are also the two most liberal and the two biggest supporters of Hillary's failed Health Care Plan: Sens. Ted Kennedy and Patrick Leahy. Press reports are claiming that the new rules are opposed by the health care industry largely because of the costs involved in digitizing all medical records. Insurance companies and drug marketing companies are salivating that the new rules will enable access to medical records. And there is no question the new rules allow third-party marketing companies to have access to your medical records. As NewsMax previously reported, Bob Gellman, a medical privacy consultant and former congressional staffer, states that under the new rules someone can knock on your door and say, 'I've learned from your doctor you have hemorrhoids; would you like to buy this treatment?' " Gellman added: "You can only opt out after you have been marketed to. I've been working on this issue for 20 years, and it's the worst anti-privacy thing I've seen." Last week we had more confirmation of this incredible invasion of personal privacy. The Washington Post reported that Secretary Thompson "said the administration was somewhat less likely to review a provision, opposed by consumer advocates, that allows patients' information to be shared for marketing purposes." Let me ask the new Bush administration, if the purpose of these rules is to protect patient medical privacy, why do they allow marketing companies to have access to them, as the Washington Post reports? Obviously, claims that these rules "protect privacy" are as deceptive as redefining the meanining of "is." Slapping on a label of "privacy" doesnât mean it really safeguards privacy. We expected that from Clinton, but not from Bush. The Clinton years were filled with doublespeak. Today Wes Vernon reports that legislation passed by Congress late last year and signed by Clinton supposedly claims to protect individuals' private financial data, including their confidential Social Security numbers. Now we learn the privacy safeguards were a sham and that banks can sell your Social Security information to marketing companies. Sounds familiar. The new Bush administration would do well to rethink its hasty decision to adopt the Clinton "privacy" rules. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.

-Caveat Lector- http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/environment/story.jsp?story=66975 US refusal to sign Kyoto deal 'not on the agenda' for Prescott's visit By Marie Woolf, Chief Political Correspondent 17 April 2001 John Prescott's role in restarting the stalled climate change talks was called into question yesterday after the Government insisted that global warming would not be on the agenda during his visit to the United States. In an apparent contradiction to Mr Prescott's claim at the weekend that he was flying to New York to try to persuade the Americans of the importance of climate change controls, the Department of the Environment said yesterday that the issue would not be discussed. The Deputy Prime Minister left yesterday with the Environment minister Michael Meacher to take part in an international commission on sustainable development. He will also hold a short "get to know you" meeting with Norm Mineta, the US Transport Secretary. On Sunday, Mr Prescott said in an interview on GMTV that he would use his influence to bring the Americans on board the climate change talks, in a response to President George Bush's decision to abandon the Kyoto Protocol. He said: "We must argue with the Americans and get them to agree that we have to have a global solution and America is a very important part of that solution. I shall be over there arguing the case again." But the Department of the Environment was clear that Mr Prescott's visit would not include talks about climate change. A spokesman said: "It is not the reason he is going out there. He is going out there to take part in the commission on sustainable development. He is only meeting the US Transport Secretary." The Tories accused Mr Prescott of making an "embarrassing gaffe". A Conservative Party spokesman said: "[He] has put his foot in it again. He is such an embarrassment to the Government. Climate change is a serious issue for serious minds. Should the Deputy Prime Minister be handling this?" Mr Prescott was instrumental in pushing through the Kyoto Treaty in 1997, which led to a legally binding agreement to a 5 per cent cut in greenhouse gases by 2010. Although America has only has 4 per cent of the world's population it causes 25 per cent of its pollution. President Bush's statement that he will not abide by the deal has infuriated environmentalists. The Green Party has launched an international boycott of American-owned petrol stations in protest against his decision.

[CTRL] Blow-Why CIA Dopers Beat The Independents
http://www.conspiracyplanet.com/index.cfm 'Blow' -- Why CIA Dopers Beat the Independents by URI DOWBENKO Despite his ambition and entrepreneurial skills, George Jung, the working class hero/ drug dealer of Blow, never had a chance. After all, even mobster John Gotti, Jr. -- when asked in court whether the Family still sold drugs -- answered, “No, we can’t compete with the government.” Based on a true story with fictionalized names and Hollywood-style story changes, Blow follows the life of George Jung (Johnny Depp), who stumbled into the dope business in the late 1960s. After leaving Massachusetts, his mom obsessed with materialism (Rachel Griffiths) and his hard-working father (Ray Liotta), George ends up in Manhattan Beach, California, a Los Angeles town that was then well known for its non-stop party scene. As George comments in the voice-over, “Everyone was getting stoned,” plus his new friends on the beach “all seemed to share the same occupation – stewardess.” So George and his friend Tuna (Ethan Suplee) meet their first connection, marijuana dealer and hairdresser Derek, (Paul Reubens), a real-life character who actually laundered his profits by fronting beauty salons in LA’s South Bay. Before NAFTA and “Free Trade” were even invented, George’s first scheme was to import marijuana from Mexico and distribute it to Boston area college students. He used the airline stewardesses as mules, since their luggage cleared the airport without being checked. One of the stewardesses, Barbara (Franka Potente) became the love of his life -- until she died of cancer. George’s stoned version of the American Dream was shattered forever, but his drive to become financially independent only deepened his resolve. George’s dysfunctional childhood added to the karmic stew, as he remembered how his father “slowly but surely lost everything. He went bankrupt.” Memories of his father’s business failure fueled his ambition. “Sometimes you’re flush and sometimes you’re bust,” his father told him. “It doesn’t really matter. It only seems like it does.” But George decided then and there, “I don’t ever want to be poor.” When he did get busted, sent to Danbury Federal Penitentiary, George’s cellmate turned out to be an associate of Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar. In Colombia, George meets Escobar, a ruthless drug trafficker, who executes an underling right in front of him, then proceeds to calmly tell him that “the business today is cocaine” and that he “wants to find an American he can trust.” They do the numbers – at $10,000 per kilo, 300 kilos is $3 million. As George describes it “cocaine exploded in American culture like an atomic bomb.” Cultural trendsetters, movie people, and rock stars glamorized cocaine. The media popularized the new drug of choice, and cocaine production, distribution, and the laundering of drug profits had suddenly become really Big Business. Miffed at US banks, which wanted to launder his drug profits for an exorbitant 60% surcharge, George took his money to Panama where Tony Noriega had a more favorable arrangement. George them meets and marries a volatile Colombian cokehead named Mirtha (Penelope Cruz). He tells the world that “we were young rich and in love. It was perfect.” But it wasn’t. The marriage exploded. He was betrayed, then double-crossed. And in the end, George Jung was sentenced to 60 years in prison. He’s due to be released in 2015. George Jung, the independent drug trafficker, was in clearly over his head. He had absolutely no conception of How the Real World Works. He had no idea that, as a former US intelligence officer has said, “the CIA is the world’s most efficient cocaine distributor,” and therefore, as an independent, he would eventually be characterized as competition to government sanctioned narcotics traffickers. The untold story of Blow is the centralization of the cocaine trade as a vertically integrated global business. In fact, when drugs became Big Business, the “small businessman” like George Jung became nothing but expendable. That’s why the DEA is around – to quash the competition. Jung was no match for the highly-organized, well-bankrolled, government-connected drug traffickers, who launder their profits on Wall Street and work through Fortune 500 corporations. The efficiency of scale would have been inconceivable to a small-time operator like George Jung, who had unknowingly run head first into the Olympian drug cartel. The Olympians do not take lightly to encroachment on their turf. That’s Planet Earth, by the way. Today, it is fair to say that the entire global economy is a money laundry, based on surreptitious illicit revenues, derived for the most part from drugs and the laundering of drug profits. Think about the “feasibility” of an $8 million book advance. Think about a $100 million movie. Think about venture capital firms literally awash with money.

[CTRL] Another Top Secret Laptop Missing In Britain
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/010416/80/bkwiz.html Monday April 16, 08:01 AM "Top secret" laptop reported missing LONDON (Reuters) - A Defence Ministry laptop computer packed with national security secrets has gone missing after an official left it in the back of a taxi, the Mirror has reported. The laptop was thought to contain vital information about new weapons systems, it said. The Mirror said the official had notified police about the missing laptop. No immediate comment was available from the Defence Ministry or police. It was the latest of several laptops with military or intelligence information reported lost in Britain in just over a year. In March last year there were reports that agents of MI5, the domestic security service, and MI6, the overseas security service, had lost laptops containing secret information. The MI5 laptop, said to contain confidential information on Northern Ireland, was snatched at a London railway station. Before the start of the 1991 Gulf War, a laptop said to have contained combat plans was stolen from the car of a air force officer, who lost his job as a result.

[CTRL] Israeli Missile On Chinese Fighter
http://www.worldtribune.com/worldtribune/breaking-1.html Downed Chinese F-8 carried Israeli missile Special to World Tribune.com MIDDLE EAST NEWSLINE Monday, April 16, 2001 TEL AVIV — China has deployed Israeli air-to-air missiles on its F-8 fighter-jet, one of which was downed during a crash with a U.S spy plane on April 1. The Israeli Haaretz daily reported that the Chinese F-8 fighter-jet contains the Python-3 air-to-air missile. The misile was developed and produced by the state-owned Rafael, Israel Armament Development Authority. The Python-3 missile can be seen in a video taken in January that was played during a weekend news conference by U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld after the release of the captured American crew. The crew of the EP-3 plane was released last week. The newspaper said Israel's defense officials are concerned that the appearance of the Python-3 on the Chinese F-8 could lead to renewed U.S. demands to end all defense cooperation between Jerusalem and Beijing. In July, the Republican-dominated Congress and the Clinton administration pressured Israel to halt the sale of the Phalcon airborne early-warning system to China. Since the suspension of the sale, Israeli-Chinese military cooperation has been shelved. Over the last few months, officials from both countries are discussing a revival of such relations.The Python-3 was sold to China with U.S. consent, Israeli defense sources said. Israel has since developed and marketed the Python-4.
[CTRL] Hey! Maybe O.J. DIDN'T Do It!
http://www.dallasobserver.com/issues/2001-04-12/feature.html/page1.html O.J. Confidential High-profile P.I. Bill Dear believes he knows who killed Nicole Simpson. It's not who you think. By Carlton Stowers It was a Friday in June 1994, and Dallas private investigator Bill Dear, dapper as ever in his three-piece suit, monogrammed shirt and alligator boots, had completed his speech to the National Conference of Investigative Reporters and Editors and remained in the St. Louis Convention Center to answer questions.On that day, however, attending journalists seemed less interested in his litany of recollections of high-profile cases he'd worked during a colorful, sometimes controversial, three-decade career. Never mind his investigations that had been spun into nonfiction books; solving the murder of an Ohio millionaire, tracking down a missing 16-year-old genius and an abducted 5-year-old girl; the tales of dangers faced and bad guys put behind bars; the staff of assistants he employed who helped him sleuth around the world; the bigger-than-life persona that Dear had long perpetuated as "the real Sherlock Holmes." The topic of the day, clearly, was a crime that had occurred thousands of miles away in an upscale California residential area known as Brentwood. There, in the realm of Los Angeles' rich and famous, the slain bodies of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman had been found. The savage murders that had occurred in the doorway of Nicole Simpson's Bundy Drive condo only five days earlier had been locked onto the front pages of newspapers throughout the world and were an around-the-clock concern of the electronic media. The prime suspect: the murdered woman's ex-husband, O.J. Simpson, Heisman Trophy winner, NFL Hall of Famer, movie star and pitchman. What, the famed P.I. was asked, did he think about the case? "I told them what I believed to be true, based on what I'd heard and read," Dear says. "O.J.'s blood was found at the Bundy crime scene. Nicole's blood was at Simpson's home on Rockingham. Ron Goldman's blood was in Simpson's Ford Bronco. This, I said, looked exactly like what it was: O.J. was guilty." It was later, as he stood in the convention center lobby, that Dear noticed a strange look on his son Michael's face. Having accompanied his father on the trip, the young man had sat in on the question-and-answer session. "You've never done that before," he finally said. "I didn't have to ask what he meant," the elder Dear recalls. He had, in a from-the-hip reply to a reporter's question, joined the nationwide chorus that was proclaiming O.J. Simpson guilty even before the investigation was complete. The credo he had sworn to throughout his career--never assume, always verify--had been violated. Three weeks after the murders--after watching the live coverage of the bizarre slow-speed chase along a Los Angeles freeway that finally ended in Simpson's arrest, after reading and re-reading every news report he could lay hands on, after filling a legal pad with questions he wished answered--Dear was on a plane to Los Angeles. Though he had been talking of slowing the frantic pace of his career and moving into semiretirement, he was off on what would turn into a six-year odyssey. It became, he admits, an obsession. Working independently, without assistance from Los Angeles law enforcement or the "dream team" of lawyers assembled to defend Simpson, Dear went in search of a truth he was convinced had not yet surfaced. Unlike many, he saw reason to doubt that O.J. was, in fact, guilty of what was being called the Crime of the Century, many questions that to him weren't answered:··· If the crime scene had been the horrific bloodbath described by media reports, why was it that such small amounts of blood were found in Simpson's Bronco? ·· ·If he had made his getaway from Nicole's condo and driven directly home to make certain he caught a scheduled late-night flight to Chicago, didn't it stand to reason that there would have been blood on the vehicle's gas pedal, brake or steering wheel? ·· ·Why, in the wall-to-wall beige carpeting inside Simpson's home, was there no blood left by a man who, just minutes earlier, had stabbed and killed two people? ·· ·In a limited time frame, how had he disposed of bloody clothing? And, assuming he'd done so, why would he have overlooked the pair of socks later found in his bedroom with a single droplet of blood on them? And what of the murder weapon? ·· ·Why, after what authorities assumed was a violent struggle with victim Goldman, did Simpson have no bruises or scratches except for a small cut on the knuckle of one finger? And if the finger had, in fact, been injured during the murders, why was it that there was no cut on either of the gloves Simpson was supposed to have worn? ·· ·Then, the most troubling question of all: If Simpson was wrongly accused, who else might have committed the horrific

[CTRL] How it's done: Once elected you can do what you want.
-Caveat Lector- 4/16/01 In the example below, it's about energy. But it could be anything. Once you gain power through election, it's not necessary to pay any more attention to the desires of the voters. If you don't plan to take advantage of incumbency and run again, you are pretty much free to serve the elites who funded you, in a most direct manner. All you need is a claim for secrecy. You don't even need to prove that secrecy is necessary or required. Nurev Energy Task Force Works in Secret http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A21748-2001Apr15.html?GXHC_gx_ session_id_FutureTenseContentServer=69509fcd5f8f5837referer=email Like Clinton Health Effort, Cheney Group Aims to Limit Leaks, Flak By Dana Milbank and Eric Pianin Washington Post Staff Writers Monday, April 16, 2001; Page A01 The Bush administration's energy task force is something of a secret society. At the start of each meeting with outside groups, task-force members request that the session be off the record. They say they will share no documents, to prevent information from leaking. The members are expected not to talk to the media, and the few who do are not able to talk about policy. "There really isn't anything to talk about," said an official from the Transportation Department. "I'm sorry, but we're not going to discuss process," said an Environmental Protection Agency spokesman who intercepted a call to a task force staffer -- and then asked that his name not be used with his no comment. Why such secrecy? The broad outline of the policy recommendations, after all, is not in doubt. The final proposal, anticipated within the next three or four weeks, will be heavily focused on increased production of oil, gas and coal and investment in new refineries, pipelines and power grids, according to those familiar with the discussions. The silence, rather, is an effort to keep a low-key atmosphere around the task force's deliberations. By limiting exposure, the administration is calculating that it can limit criticism. To close followers of government, the shroud of secrecy may seem familiar: It is precisely the approach taken by Hillary Rodham Clinton's health care task force at the same point in the Clinton administration. Members of the Bush energy task force, headed by Vice President Cheney, say they are determined to avoid the disastrous fate that befell that previous task force. They say that despite some obvious similarities in approach, their goal -- solving the nation's energy supply-demand imbalance -- is more circumscribed and achievable than overhauling America's health care system. "We're not out to reengineer the nation's electric system," said Lawrence B. Lindsey, the president's chief economic adviser and a member of the task force. Still, addressing the nation's energy problems is one of the top priorities for the new administration, and some of the issues the task force plans to tackle could spark the same kind of outcry created by the Clinton health task force. Administration officials familiar with the deliberations say the task force is looking at everything from increased drilling in the Alaskan wildlife refuge and the Rocky Mountains to more emphasis on nuclear power and energy conservation. For Bush's energy team, as for the Clinton health care task force, the problem is less in coming up with a set of recommendations than in selling its ideas to the public. While Clinton's advisers labored in secrecy, out-of-context news reports made wrong impressions, and the feeding frenzy by opponents once the plan was released contributed to its downfall. A similar danger faces the Bush task force as reports come out about controversial elements in its plan, including more drilling and more nuclear power plants. "There will be quite a political reaction to that, and not just from the anti nuclear-proliferation types," said Paul Leventhal, president of the Nuclear Control Institute. "It's from anyone who doesn't want a plant in their back yard." Already, there are signs of the divisions. Environmental groups complain that Cheney won't meet with their leaders while the vice president sits down with a parade of industry officials. The nation's powerful environmental lobby is ready to pounce on any report that will shift policy from conservation toward increased energy production -- a central argument of the Bush report. Some outsiders say the administration is courting trouble with its closed approach. Ira Magaziner, who ran the Clinton health care task force, said it was a "huge mistake" to restrict the news about the health care task force. It didn't work, and it created hostility, he said. "My experience taught me from a political and public policy point of view, it's better keeping things open." Magaziner would know. In 1993, The Washington Post wrote about the Clinton task force's information "blackout," designed "to stop reporters and lobbyists from bothering the

It is the headquarters of Exxon Mobil, and it houses a plush management suite that is known across the energy industry as the "God Pod", with the reverence befitting a corporation which last month emerged as the most profitable in the history of human endeavour. It is no exaggeration to say the decisions made here in Irving, in this high temple of private enterprise, will shape the future of the planet. Exxon Mobil, which trades in Britain as Esso, does not believe in the certainty of global warming - it casts doubt on evidence that industrial emissions of greenhouse gases are raising temperatures. And not only is it sceptical, it has conducted an aggressive and expensive public relations operation to challenge scientific orthodoxy on the subject, as part of its battle to halt international efforts to put an expensive cap on the smokestacks. Now a new Republican government, elected with the help of $1.2m from Exxon Mobil, has abandoned the centrepiece of those international efforts, the Kyoto treaty on global warming. The Bush administration, staffed from the president down by former oil executives, has also ruled out plans to limit US emissions of carbon dioxide in the foreseeable future. The exact link between campaign contributions and the subsequent acts of an administration can only be guessed at. But Exxon's critics argue that the behemoth's assertive embrace of any scientific evidence against global warming - however anecdotal or dubious in origin - has lent it a credibility it does not deserve. It has also given President George Bush "cover" for his rejection of Kyoto. The mood in Irving in the new Bush era is confident, even jovial. But it is equally clear that its executives have been put on their guard against complacency. Exxon Mobil (born of a mega-merger in 1999) has, to say the least, an image problem. In Australia, the first ever conference of the world's green parties yesterday agreed to launch a boycott against Exxon and other US oil companies. They want to "send a message" to the companies on the role they allegedly played in getting Mr Bush elected. "We know we have a giant target painted on our chests," said Ken Cohen, Exxon Mobil's head of government relations and public affairs. Consequently, the company has decided to emerge from its customary insularity and mount something resembling a charm offensive. And that is presumably why the outer gates of the God Pod were opened last week, and two of the corporation's vice presidents were deployed to explain why Exxon Mobil remains dubious about global warming and how it is nevertheless cleaning up its act the free-market way. Mr Cohen and Frank Sprow, in charge of safety and environmental health, both insist that Exxon Mobil's position has been misunderstood. Rather than denying the existence of global warming outright, they argue, Exxon Mobil is simply pointing out the room for error in such an ever-changing and unpredictable phenomenon as climate, and urging caution. "You really can't bring human influence out of the noise of natural variability at this point," Mr Sprow said. "Science is a process of inquiry... I'd like the answer tomorrow afternoon but it may be a decade before the science really gets crisp, because there's so much fundamental information that has to be worked on." Even though the science may not be rock hard, Mr Sprow said, Exxon is working on alternative energy sources, such as low emission fuel cells for cars, and cutting down emissions in its refineries. It spends $12m a year researching means of reducing carbon dioxide emissions, and has so far managed to reduce its own output by 3%. These arguments have not convinced the corporation's enemies in the green camp. It is big enough and controversial enough to have galvanised an entire environmental movement, Campaign Exxon Mobil, devoted to keeping it under surveillance. The campaign's spokesman, Peter Altman, argues that the vaunted $12m in carbon dioxide research is a fairly paltry share of the $17bn net income Exxon Mobil earned last year. Furthermore, he said, whatever beneficial effect that money might have is more than outweighed by the corporation's role in undermining the accepted wisdom that global warming is a real threat. Other oil companies, such as BP and Shell, have crossed the barricades. At its annual general meeting on Thursday, BP will come under pressure from green activists who have
Re: [CTRL] Zero tolerance
-Caveat Lector- I wish I could take credit for writing the following, but it was written by someone else. Although it was written in response to another problem, the following indicates one of the reasons for the zero tolerance trend in the schools. Parents should be aware of the book Education in the New Age by Alice Bailey to understand what is happening in their children's schools. Treating one's fellow man with respect should be a result of knowledge and thinking for oneself and not a result of forced conformity, repression and groupthink. "I think the key statement here is psychological training, which has effectively replaced academic specialization in teacher training. This goes back to the New Age conspiracy, which was labeled the "Aquarian Conspiracy" by author Marylin Ferguson in 1981. Please note that the official vehicle for the new age movement, Theosophy, was founded over a hundred years before Ferguson's blockbuster book was published. As of the late forties, theosophical medium Alice Bailey of Lucis Trust predicted that the education of the new age would be characterized by teachers trained as psychological facilitators for globalism and political correctness, rather than specialists in certain fields of knowledge. "The general trend of his education will be more psychological than in the past and the information thus gained will be geared to his peculiar situation. All children have certain assets and should be taught how to use them; these they share with the whole of humanity, irrespective of race or nationality." Education in the New Age http://www.netnews.org/bk/education/edu1026.html "The errors and mistakes of the past techniques are obvious but there is no need to waste time in emphasizing them or in piling up instances. What is needed is a realization of the immediate opportunity, plus the recognition that the required shift in objectives and change in methods will take much time. We shall have to train our teachers differently and much time will be lost as we grope for the new and better ways, develop the new textbooks and find the men and women who can be impressed with the new vision and who will work for the new civilization. I have sought only to emphasize principles and I do this with the recognition that many of them are by no means new but that they require new emphasis. I have endeavored to show that now is the day of opportunity, for everything has to be built up again, for everything has been destroyed in the greater part of the world. The war has demonstrated that we have not taught aright. A better educational system should, therefore, be worked out which will present the possibilities of human living in such a manner that barriers will be broken down, prejudices removed and a training given to the developing child which will enable him, when grownup, to live with other men in harmony and goodwill. This can be done, if patience and understanding are developed and if educators realize that "where there is no vision, the people perish." "An international system of education, developed in joint conference by broadminded teachers and educational authorities in every country, is today a crying need and would provide a major asset in preserving world peace. Steps towards this are already being taken and today groups of educators are getting together and discussing the formation of a better system which will guarantee that the children of the different nations (beginning with the millions of children now demanding education) will be taught truth, without bias or prejudice. World democracy will take form when men everywhere are regarded in reality as equal; when boys [88] and girls are taught that it does not matter whether a man is an Asiatic, an American, a European, British, a Jew or a Gentile but only that each has an historical background and history which enables him to contribute something to the good of the whole, and that the major requirement is an attitude of goodwill and a constant effort to foster right human relations. World Unity will be a fact when the children of the world are taught that religious differences are largely a matter of birth; that if a man is born in Italy, the probability is that he will be a Roman Catholic; if he is born a Jew, he will follow the Jewish teaching; if born in Asia, he may be a Mohammedan, a Buddhist, or belong to one of the Hindu sects; if born in other countries, he may be a Protestant and so on. He will learn that the religious differences are largely the result of man made quarrels over human interpretations of truth. Thus gradually, our quarrels and differences will be offset and the idea of the One Humanity will take their place." "Much greater care will have to be given in picking and training the teachers of the future. Their mental attainments and their knowledge of their particular subject will be of importance, but more important still will be the need for them to be free from prejudice and to see all men as

[CTRL] World's Nobel Laureates And Preeminent Scientists
-Caveat Lector- --- Forwarded message follows --- Date sent: Mon, 16 Apr 2001 21:10:36 -0700 From: Steve Wingate [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject:SNET: World's Nobel Laureates And Preeminent Scientists Call On Government Lead To: IUFO [EMAIL PROTECTED], SNETNEWS [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send reply to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Organization: Anomalous Images [ Double-click this line for list subscription options ] - SNETNEWS Mailing List Source: Union Of Concerned Scientists (http://www.ucsusa.org/) Contact: Rich Hayes , Public Information Officer Phone: 202-332-0900; Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Posted 10/2/1997 World's Nobel Laureates And Preeminent Scientists Call On Government Leaders To Halt Global Warming (Washington, DC - September 30) More than 1,500 of the world's most distinguished senior scientists, including the majority of Nobel laureates in science, have signed a landmark consensus declaration urging leaders worldwide to act immediately to prevent the potentially devastating consequences of human-induced global warming. The "World Scientists' Call for Action at Kyoto" was presented to the Clinton Administration today at a Science Summit on Climate Change in Washington, DC. "Let there be no doubt about the conclusions of the scientific community: the threat of global warming is very real and action is needed immediately," said Nobel laureate Henry Kendall, Chairman of the Union of Concerned Scientists and author of the scientists' statement. "It is a grave error to believe that we can continue to procrastinate. Scientists do not believe this and no one else should either." Leading scientists came to the Science Summit to ensure that government leaders base their global warming policies on climate science, not politics. In December, world leaders will gather in Kyoto, Japan, to negotiate final agreement on a treaty to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases that are altering the climate. The White House has yet to announce its concrete proposals to limit global warming and has scheduled a conference on the subject for October 6. The scientists' declaration urges all government leaders to demonstrate a new commitment to protecting the global environment for future generations. According to the scientists, a strong treaty will be the "first step to protect future generations from dire prospects that would result from failure to meet our responsibilities toward them. The stark facts carry a clear signal: There is only one responsible choice to act now." "This is a wake-up call for world leaders. Never before has the senior scientific community spoken so boldly on the urgent need to prevent disruption to our climate," said Nobel laureate Dudley Herschbach, Professor of Chemistry at Harvard University. "Scientists and citizens around the world will hold leaders accountable if a strong climate treaty is not reached." The "Call for Action" is notable in both the pedigree and cautious nature of its backers. The signers come from 63 countries and include leaders and senior members of national science academies from around the world, chief authors and the former head of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, National Medal of Science recipients, and winners of the Craaford Prize. A majority of the world's Nobel winners in science - 98 out of 171 - signed the statement. The declaration points out that a strong climate treaty in Kyoto would address one of the most serious threats to the planet and future generations. The declaration states that: * Global warming is underway and our overuse of fossil fuels is partly to blame. * Climate change is projected to raise sea levels; increase the likelihood of more intense rainfall, floods, and droughts; and endanger human health by greater exposure to heat waves and encroachment of tropical diseases to higher latitudes. * Climate change is likely to exacerbate food shortages and spread undernutrition by adversely affecting water supplies, soil conditions, temperature tolerances, and growing seasons. * Climate change will accelerate the appalling pace at which species are now disappearing, especially in vulnerable ecosystems. Possibly one-third of all species may be lost before the end of the next century. * Continued destruction of forests will undermine the environment's natural ability to store carbon, thereby enhancing global warming. The scientists note that leading economists have identified viable policies for reducing global warming and urge government leaders to enact sound energy policies that promote energy efficiency and renewable energy, like solar and wind power. "We need to speed the transition away from oil and coal while developing cutting-edge technologies involving wind, biomass, and solar power," said Kendall. "A move to clean energy and energy efficiency will bring major benefits to both industrial and
