[CTRL] Fwd: Legionnaire's disease outbreak confirmed in Spain
So right on schedule or what is going on in Spain? Saba Legionnaire's disease outbreak confirmed in Spain MURCIA, Spain (July 8, 2001 08:50 p.m. EDT ) - Health officials said Sunday they have confirmed 10 cases of Legionnaire's disease in a city in southeastern Spain and suspect many more people may be infected. Authorities said an additional 80 people have been hospitalized with pneumonia-like symptoms in the city of Murcia, about 250 miles southeast of Madrid. Legionnaires' disease is a form of pneumonia spread through inhalation of mist from contaminated water. Symptoms include shortness of breath, fever, body aches and coughing. It was identified at a 1976 American Legion convention in Philadelphia. The victims, all adults, are mainly residents of two central neighborhoods of Murcia. Marques said city health officials were carrying out chemical tests at several local water towers to try to determine the source of the infection. He said results would be known in the next three days.

[CTRL] Disturbing Background Comments On Mueller
-Caveat Lector- BACKGROUND OF FBI DIRECTOR NOMINEE ROBERT MUELLER Sun Jul 8 20:58:01 2001 http://disc.server.com/discussion.cgi?id=149495article=4156 BACKGROUND OF FBI DIRECTOR NOMINEE ROBERT MUELLER One man's answer! World Affairs Brief July 6, 2001 Copyright Joel Skousen. Quotations with attribution permitted. Cite source as Joel Skousen's World Affairs Brief http://www.joelskousen.com When I saw arch leftists Barbara Boxer and Ted Kennedy endorse Robert S. Mueller, President Bush's pick for FBI director to replace Louis Freeh, with raving enthusiasm, the red flags went up in my mind. So I did a background check on Mueller, and found a lot that conservatives should be concerned about.. Mueller worked as US Attorney in Boston, a center of dark side government operations in the Northeast. He was then appointed by Janet Reno as US Attorney in San Francisco, the corruption capital of the West Coast. The northern California judicial districts at both the California state and federal levels are noted for extreme collusion between police, prosecutors and judges. There has existed for years a huge kickback system within the bankruptcy courts, systematically looting millions of dollars and paying off lawyers and judges to accede to the system. Notable cases have taken place in northern California where people's full civil rights have been stripped away by courts and those verdicts upheld without comment clear up the chain of appeals in Federal Court. The bottom line is that Janet Reno never appointed a single US Attorney that wasn't on her team of approved insiders. Mueller also served as head of the Justice Department's Criminal Division under George Bush Sr. His administration there was notable for the fact that he presided over some of the major cover-ups of government dark side operations. Here are a few notorious examples: 1) He was responsible for the prosecution of Gen. Manuel Noriega of Panama, who was the CIA's main money launderer for CIA operations in Panama. Even Congress knew of Noriega's CIA connections. Senator Kerry said that Noriega had been on the payroll and an employee of the CIA for many, many, many years [quoted in Defrauding America, by Rodney Stich, pg. 401]. Noriega was taken down by the CIA and prosecuted because he was found to be taking a much larger cut out of CIA drug profits than was agreed upon. During the trial, the presiding judge (on orders from the government) ruled that Noriega could not enter into evidence any documents proving his relationship to the CIA over the years. Mueller helped cover up this major issue by silencing Noriega. 2) In 1988, Mueller supervised the investigation of PanAm Flight 800 which was destroyed by a terrorist bomb over Lockerbie, Scotland. He successfully kept the CIA's connection to the bombing from becoming public. The CIA and FBI took control of the crash scene for the first day (keeping Scottish police at bay), searching through and removing numerous pieces of evidence and luggage from the wreckage to obscure the connections of the bombing to the CIA special team that was on board the aircraft. One CIA defector has said that the team had been returning to the states against orders to blow the whistle on CIA drug and terrorist connections in the Middle East. 3) Mueller was in charge of the infamous BCCI bank scandal and prosecution. According to various CIA defectors, The Bank of Credit and Commerce International was a wholly owned and operated CIA proprietary bank set up with secret CIA funds in order to launder drug money and buy off politicians. When the bank's connection to the government threatened to become public, the CIA pulled out its funding and left the private depositors with a $10 billion shortfall that the US taxpayers had to cover for. Mueller took personal charge of the investigation and indicted six lower echelon scapegoats specifically to shield the higher operators from prosecution. Mueller never investigated the shady way in which BCCI got initial approval to operate, or the stonewalling that occurred in the federal bank regulatory mechanism that would otherwise have blown the whistle on this operation much earlier. 4) Mueller presided over the prosecution of John Gotti, the alleged Mafia head of the Gambino family group. There was a tie-in here as well with government dark-side operations. CIA agent Richard Beneke, in response to a question of whether or not the Gotti family had ties to the CIA, testified, Yes. As far back as 1968 and early 1969, we [CIA] had begun to launder money from organized crime families in New York. At that time, Mr. Gotti was an up and coming member of one of the families. We used to wash their money out overseas and put it in Switzerland in nice, safe places for them. [Defrauding America, pg. 404]. We do not know why the government turned on Gotti as a partner in crime. Perhaps he was also found guilty of skimming too much off the top. Conclusion: Robert Mueller is

[CTRL] 'Largest Ever' Child Molest Case In Massachusetts
-Caveat Lector- http://www.nandotimes.com/nation/story/39628p-630175c.html Trial opens for Massachusetts man facing 130 child-sex charges By ADAM GORLICK. Associated Press NORTHAMPTON, Mass. (July 8, 2001 1:09 p.m. EDT) - Many local parents considered Christopher Reardon to be truly trustworthy, with a resume that included youth minister, Boy Scout leader, YMCA swim coach. But his upstanding image and the serenity of the community of Middleton were shattered last summer when two boys accused him of molestation. Within days, the police investigation blossomed into what prosecutors say is the state's largest ever child-molestation case. Reardon, 29, has pleaded innocent to 130 charges - including rape, molestation and disseminating pornography - involving 29 boys. Jury selection for his trial is set to begin Monday in Northampton. The trial was moved more than 100 miles away from Middleton, about 20 miles north of Boston, out of concern he wouldn't get an impartial jury close to home. Although Reardon has maintained his innocence, people in Middleton say their community won't heal unless he is convicted and put away for life. The whole town can't wait to get this over with so we can move on, said Susan Santa Barbara, a third-grade teacher who taught catechism classes with Reardon at St. Agnes Church. A lot of people are thinking why we even need a trial. We know he's guilty, so let's just put him away. Police say he admitted molesting some of the children and using pornography to lure the boys. According to court records, police confiscated at least two dozen pornographic videos, photographs of nude children, inflatable dolls and sex toys from Reardon's home and church office. The documents also say they found a videotape of Reardon masturbating with a boy in the church rectory. Lawyers for both sides did not return calls seeking comment. Santa Barbara said her two sons were not among the alleged victims, but she said they knew Reardon through church and scouting programs and now she's no longer the regular churchgoer she used to be. It's just too eerie to walk into that church where he was molesting those boys, she said. But the issue comes up everywhere. You'll be at a barbecue or at the market, and someone is talking about it. It's really shocked our community. Prosecutors plan to call 18 of the boys as witnesses during the trial, which Superior Court Judge Isaac Borenstein says could last two months. I feel so sorry for those kids, said Nancy Jones, who taught Reardon how to swim when he was a boy. Her children aren't among Reardon's accusers. When a parent heard that Chris was going to take a bunch of scouts somewhere, it was a seal of approval, Jones said. It's hard to be suspicious of someone who appeared to be doing so much good. That squeaky-clean image may have allowed the alleged abuse to go on for an extended period, some experts say. Prosecutors say the abuse began in 1996. Sometimes adults won't pick up on hints of abuse dropped by a child, especially if they point to someone of high standing in a community, said Ervin Staub, a social child psychology professor at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. And if the boys trusted him, they may have felt like they had a shared secret they didn't want to reveal. Some Middleton residents say the case has caused them to be more in tune with how children are acting. If there's a behavior problem or someone seems to be acting out in a strange way, you say in the back of your mind 'where is this coming from?' said Jones, who is also a sixth-grade teacher. It's not that everyone suspects that child has been abused, but it's something that just pops into your head now. === MARtin F.

MID-EAST REALITIES © - www.MiddleEast.Org - Washington - 7/09: In general it's no sescret what the Israelis have in mind at this point. They will put down the Palestinian Uprising with brute force, of which they have a great deal thanks to the Americans. They will declare the attempt to do much the same thing through diplomatic cunning, of which they also have a great deal, unsuccessful. They will blame it all on Arafat; as convenient a target now for their loathing and demonizing as he was a decade ago to bought and used. But the devil of course is in the details. Just how are they going to do it, and how quickly can they pull it off? Just what will be the cost in blood as well as in international standing? Just who if anyone can really stand up to them at this point in history? Just are the ramifications for the future in the Arab and Muslim region of the world where they exist? And maybe most of all, just how far do they intend to go -- mass expulsions, a Palestinian State west of the Jordan in today's Hashemite Kingdom? The following three articles published in Israel over the weekend help explain the preparations under way and ask some of the right questions: THERE ARE NO CHEAP WARS By Uzi Benziman [Ha'aretz. Sunday, July 8, 2001] While the prime minister declares to his interviewers that war is not in the offing, his ministerial colleagues are deep in expectations for the coming war with the Palestinians. Preparing for war, is the standard answer now in the corridors of power to the regular question, What's going on? Ministers, senior officials and, of course, the top officials in the defense establishment and the IDF all say it. Given the current mood of the nation's stewards, the coming war is a matter of destiny, an inevitable development, whose outbreak depends only on the timing of the next terror attack and the number of resulting casualties.This forecast requires some analysis. Is war the only logical conclusion of the current confrontation with the Palestinians? Are the expectations about it what really will happen? Is the price being taken into consideration? Can its scope and development be controled, the way its planners assume? The political lobby for bringing the violent conflict with the Palestinians to a military decision is well known; it is led by the settlers and their right-wing representatives in the government - not only Avigdor Lieberman, Rehavam Ze'evi and Natan Sharanksy, but also a large number of the Likud ministers. There's a clear majority among the decision makers now in favor of going to war. The logic behind the concept is that the state can not absorb more and more victims of terrorism, that the current methods of fighting Palestinian murders are not effective enough, that the IDF's deterrent capabilities must be proven once again to the Palestinian people and leadership and to the entire Arab world lest Israel end up bleeding forever and becoming weaker and weaker. Behind the demand to declare real war on the Palestinians is also the assumption that a major military blow will return tranquillity to the state and end the 10-month nightmare of terror. Most of the Labor ministers will also take up the cry after the next major terror attack. A bloodletting as massive as what happened at the Dolphinarium will create a psychological and emotional reaction in the public that will sweep (almost) the entire government, which will decide to flip the safety switch and order the IDF to go into the planned battle. This is supposed to deliver the knockout blow to the Palestinian Authority. The stage, therefore, has been set for the outbreak of the next wear: wall-to-wall political approval for a military solution to the current crisis, the appropriate
[CTRL] Victims of Palmyra slaughter return to haunt Syria's new leader
-Caveat Lector- Victims of Palmyra slaughter return to haunt Syria's new leader By Robert Fisk in Beirut 09 July 2001 http://news.independent.co.uk/world/middle_east/story.jsp?story=82451 After Ariel Sharon and the war crimes charges that victims of the 1982 Sabra-Chatila refugee camps massacre want to bring against him, it looks as if it is Syria's turn to answer questions about mass graves. Nizar Nayyouf a Damascus journalist who was recently released from jail, where he was being held as a political prisoner, and is now living in Paris is threatening to reveal the location of a mass grave in Syria. Everyone knows he is talking about a place called Tadmor. And now a Maronite Christian group is demanding to open up what they claim is a mass grave at Yarzeh in Lebanon, not far from the ministry of defence in Beirut. And everyone knows that this is referring to the Lebanese soldiers killed by Syrian troops at the end of the civil war in 1990. Mr Nayyouf, who is also threatening to reveal corruption within the Syrian security services, says he was kidnapped by Syrian agents in Damascus before President Bashar Assad's state visit to France last month, then beaten because they believed wrongly that he was about to ask for political asylum at the French embassy. He says he was on his way to the doctor. In any event, President Assad or Dr Bashar, as the opthamologist son of the late president Hafez Assad is known in his country announced in Paris that Mr Nayyouf was free to leave Syria. Within hours, he was told he could collect his passport. In the Middle East, everyone is aware of the particular mass grave Mr Nayyouf wants to reveal: the pit outside the Syrian town of Tadmor known in the West as the ancient Roman city of Palmyra in which about 500 prisoners from the local state security jail were buried after their massacre on 27 June 1980, by the so-called Defence Brigades of Colonel Rifaat Assad, the now disgraced uncle of Dr Bashar and brother of Hafez Assad. The slaughter of these men, most of them members of the banned Muslim Brotherhood, followed an assassination attempt against President Hafez Assad. In his magisterial biography of Assad, the journalist Patrick Seale revealed how Rifaat's 120 gunmen arrived outside Tadmor prison in a fleet of 10 helicopters early in the morning and were let loose on the prison dormitories with orders to kill everyone inside. Many of the prisoners died screaming God is great. Their bodies were later secretly buried beside a low hill outside the desert town. Many Syrians believe hundreds of other political prisoners who either died of mistreatment or were secretly executed also lie buried in graves near the hill. When Syria allows us, a civilian resident of Tadmor told me many years ago, we will go to the hill and throw rose petals on all the graves. But there are no rose petals yet. At Yarzeh, a similarly distressing story could unfold. It goes back to 1990 when Michel Aoun, the rebel Lebanese general who thought he was the president, was fighting the Syrian army for the liberation of Lebanon. After the Syrians bombed Aoun's palace from the air with American permission, since Washington was seeking President Hafez Assad's support for the Gulf coalition against Saddam Hussein Aoun fled to the French embassy in Beirut and called upon his own soldiers to hold their fire. But on a Beirut suburban hillside called Dahr al-Wahash which ominously translates from Arabic as the Monster's Back Lebanese troops did not receive Aoun's last order. So they opened fire on Syrian troops who were advancing through a minefield. At least 150 Syrian soldiers believing the Lebanese had surrendered were cut to pieces by mortar and machine-gun fire amid the mines. When they reached the Lebanese positions, they began executing the Aounists as franc-tireurs irregular partisans who had disobeyed the rules of war. No-one is certain how many Lebanese soldiers were killed. A day later, I found several of them in an unrefrigerated morgue at Baabda, shot through the head, hands tied behind their back, most of them stripped before being killed. Albert Mansour, who was Lebanon's Defence Minister, told me later that there had been a double massacre of both Syrians and Lebanese. So why are the Christians so keen to open a grave at Yarzeh? Presumably to embarrass the Syrians and to make life difficult for President Assad, who was 24 at the time and had nothing to do with the killings. At the time of the Tadmor slaughter, he was only 14 years old. After all, if the Christian group was so keen to learn the truth of Lebanon's bloodbath, they could demand the opening of a grave in Sidon which contains the bodies of several Lebanese Muslim prisoners murdered by Israeli guards near the Safa fruit factory in 1982; I investigated these killings at the time. Or of the rebel Maronites who were murdered by their fellow Christians when they tried to overwhelm the Christian Phalange

Analysis: Adams on arms - DRUMCREE PARADE PASSES QUIETLY The Orange Order parade to Drumcree in Portadown passed off relatively peacefully yesterday as Orangemen marched up to a giant green steel barrier on Drumcree Hill in a re-run of last year's stand-off. The Orangemen's preferred route through the nationalist Garvaghy Road was blocked after they failed to engage in dialogue with Catholic residents. The residents oppose what they see as a coat-trailing, triumphalist parade through their area. After the now traditional protest at the barricade, local Orange Grand Master Harold Gracey made a relatively low-key speech in which he vowed to continue his weekly protests on the hill, and urged supporters to join him. But absent was the appeal for widespread loyalist disorder which marked his infamous tirade last year. A huge military operation in Portadown at the weekend saw 1,600 British troops drafted in to keep loyalists from forcing their way into the Garvaghy Road. Razor-wire and a water-filled trench kept loyalists from circumventing the barricade which has blocked their contentious route through the Catholic enclave for a fourth year. But loyalist numbers were considerably down on previous years and only token efforts were made to surmount the obstacles. A demonstration by supporters of jailed paramilitary Johnny Adair on Thursday had raised fears of loyalist violence. Portadown district spokesman David Jones said the next few days leading to the twelfth were crucial. There has never been violence at Drumcree on any of the Sundays. We would ask people who are coming to our protest over the next few days to respect our wishes for it to be peaceful. Nationalist representatives welcomed the calls for protests to be peaceful, but remained concerned by the number of leading loyalist paramilitaries around the Garvaghy Road. A sense of siege remains, and residents spokesman Breandan Mac Cionnaith warned of possible trouble in the run up to the twelfth of July, the high point of the marching calendar. We don't know if they (loyalist paramilitaries) will be launching attacks against the Catholic communities in the coming days before the twelfth, he said. Let's hold judgment about the peaceful Drumcree until we can see the results by July 12th. Loyalists later threw fireworks and petrol bombs over the huge steel barrier blocking the path to the Garvaghy Road. The crowds which had dwindled earlier in the afternoon swelled to around 700 by 10pm. A vehicle was set alight in the loyalist Corcrain estate. There were also disturbances in Belfast up to 11pm last night with police examining a suspicious device on the Ligoniel Road in north Belfast. A number of roads were also blocked for short periods. Mr Mac Cionnaith repeated his call for Portadown Orangemen to enter into direct dialogue with nationalist residents, something they have always refused or avoided. It has always been our position that the best way to resolve this local difficulty in Portadown is for the district office in Portadown to sit down with representatives of this community and try to get a local agreement to what essentially is a local problem, he said. He said the protest at Drumcree hill involved those bent on wrecking the peace process. I am not involved in the political process, but the people here who are marching out to Drumcree today are anti-agreement Unionists, he said. They are people who wish to see the Good Friday agreement fail. Sinn Fein assembly member Dara O'Hagan said it appeared that the Drumcree protest was fizzling out. It is certainly much more low key than in previous years. I certainly think a large section of people within the unionist community don't want anything to do with what is happening at Drumcree, she said. It is very clear that the extremes within loyalism that are using this protest at Drumcree. - Critical talks begin at new venue The main pro-agreement parties and the British and Irish governments gather for talks in England today aimed at breaking the continuing political impasse. The talks are possibly the most important in the process of implementing the 1998 Good Friday Agreement and follow the resignation last week of Ulster Unionist leader David Trimble as First Minister of the Belfast Assembly.

[CTRL] Conspiracist Jim Marrs Revealed
-Caveat Lector- Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2001 11:10:49 -0400 From: Eileen Sutton [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Conspiracist Jim Marrs Revealed ...WBAI producer Bill Weinberg offers this excellent analysis of right-wing conspiracist, Jim Marrs, whose book was recently offered by Marjorie Moore as a premium in WBAI's last fund drive. The use of the Marrs material to fund the station is seen by many as strong evidence of the ideological shifts taken place at WBAI, despite protests from management that changes in program content are illusory. Weinberg also discusses Leid's history with the City Sun, and DeRienzo's recent attacks on the IMC and George Soros. --efs RULE BY IDIOCY: WBAI FALLS FOR RIGHT-WING CONSPIRACY THEORY by Bill Weinberg Rule by Secrecy: The Hidden History That Connects the Trilateral Commission, the Freemasons, and the Great Pyramids. The title itself reads like a self-parody. The fact that it is not is a sad comment on our times. The fact that HarperCollins chose to publish this amateurish potboiler is even sadder. But saddest of all is that it was offered as a premium in the last fund-raising marathon by New York City's progressive WBAI Radio. WBAI, whose leadership was purged in a notorious Christmas Coup last year, once offered premiums by the likes of Noam Chomsky. But it was the voice of Jim Marrs that issued from the station's transmitter in relentless interviews during the May marathon. Marrs was chosen as the latest political guru by morning show host Marjorie Moore and approved by WBAI's Interim General Manager Utrice Leid. Both repeatedly praised his research over the air. That WBAI is now promoting Marrs, a peddler of the most vulgar anti-Semitic conspiracy theory, loans credence to those who argue that the station has assumed a rightward trajectory since the coup. In Rule by Secrecy, Marrs of course goes out of his way to disavow anti-Semitism-but in terms that are clearly anti-Semitic! While it may be true that secret organizations in the past were built along both racial and religious grounds and [a]lthough many international financiers are of Jewish descent, it is unfair to accuse the Hebrew race of an international conspiracy. Note the slippery use of Hebrew race in place of the more common and accurate term Jews. He complains that the broad brush of anti-Semitism frequently has been used to besmirch anyone offering a conspiratorial view of history. After this requisite disavowal, Marrs goes on to portray the gigantic and secretive Rothschilds banking empire as the covert and indirect power behind nearly every government on Earth (ultimately tracing their grand design for world domination to the Illuminati and Masonic conspiracies dating to ancient Egypt). His sources are the usual ones, all too familiar to followers of the far right and fascism. Topping the list, of course, is the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, the purported Jewish conspiracy masterplan which served as propaganda for the Czarist pogroms and then the Nazi Holocaust. While Marrs does concede that the Protocols are a hoax, he nonetheless vests much legitimacy in them: It is the possibility of 'historical truth' which has kept the Protocols in circulation since its inception. Today, modern conspiracy writers see it as a real program predating Nazism or Communism... The Protocols may indeed reflect a deeper conspiracy beyond its intended use to encourage anti-Semitism, one hidden within the secret upper ranks of the Iluminati and Freemasonry. The kneejerk anti-Communism which always characterizes this genre is there as well. Marrs writes that Marx's program points in The Communist Manifesto bear a striking resemblance to the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, suggesting some common origin. Much, of course, is made of Marx's Jewish ethnicity. Concludes Marrs: The goals of the Russian communists and Karl Marx were largely the same goals of the Illuminati and continental Freemasonry. Again and again, Marrs attempts to legitimize the anti-Semitism of Henry Ford, the Krupps and even Hitler, portraying them as mere over-reaction to the arrogant power of international Jewish bankers. Marrs argues that the Jews themselves were behind Hitler, another line familiar to those who follow this unsavory milieu. All of the American, British and Dutch industrialists who aided Hitler's rise to power are portrayed (on no evidence) as stand-ins for the great Rothschild empire. Marrs goes one better by claiming that Hitler was a Rothschild-that his grandmother was not impregnated by her husband Johann Georg Hiedler, but by one Baron Rothschild, in whose Vienna home she was working as a servant. Marrs cites a (conveniently) suppressed OSS report for this allegation, but provides no details on its name or where it is to be found. The actual report, by psychologist Walter C. Langer, was published in 1972 as The Mind of Adolf Hitler, but Marrs doesn't tell us that,
[CTRL] Fwd: [CIA-DRUGS] United Church of Christ apology
An interesting contrast. The Church, its many organs and branches, has a funny way about apologizing in one area after the damage is done, while aggressively persuing the same policy somewhere else for which it is repenting. United Church of Christ in Canada WANTS To Deal With The Cultural Loss Issue. United Church says cultural loss issues must be on the table in negotiations with Ottawa. TORONTO, July 6, 2001 In a statement released today, The United Church of Canada has said it believes that the negotiations with Ottawa around residential schools must not be limited to claims of physical and sexual abuse. While it's still early in the negotiations, the United Church says that it will insist that the matter of cultural loss be dealt with before any agreement can be reached with the government. Sitting at the table is a first step but the challenge we face is coming to an agreement on the terms of reference that will guide these negotiations, comments the Reverend David Iverson, chair of the United Church's Residential Schools Steering Committee. The United Church has repeatedly argued that it believes claims of cultural loss must be considered when dealing with matters related to residential schools. The church's own position has been to apologize for all manner of harm that was done as a result of the United Church's involvement in the residential school system, explains Iverson. Individual claimants are only one group of people who were affected by this policy of assimilation, says Iverson. Entire communities and generations of family members have borne years of pain and suffering that must be addressed in any agreement we come to with the Government of Canada. The United Church is entering into these conversations with the Government of Canada with the clear purpose of trying to achieve a fair and timely reparation for harm done to individuals and communities resulting from the legacy of residential schools, says Iverson. He adds that not only does the United Church want to ensure that any agreement is in keeping with its long-term commitment to reconciliation and healing with Canada's First Nations peoples, but also that these talks keep the interests of the survivors of residential schools first and foremost in mind. We are not negotiating with the Government in order to abdicate responsibility or to avoid financial hardship, says Iverson. We hope that with these conversations we will be able to find the path to not only resolving the dilemma of costly and time-consuming litigation, but also seeking a just resolution to all claims regarding the legacy of residential schools. That is why Iverson is concerned when he reads that Deputy Prime Minister Herb Gray says he must protect taxpayer's interests in reaching any agreement with the churches. Iverson says that comments like this not only smack of political opportunism but also fail to acknowledge that Ottawa has an obligation to challenge each and every taxpayer to recognise that we all bear responsibility for this horrific chapter in Canadian history. Church organizations were active participants in a misguided, historic government policy of cultural and racial assimilation, says Iverson. But assimilation was supported and endorsed by the Canadian public. That is why, he says, reconciliation with Canada's First Nations peoples, including financial compensation for the legacy of residential schools, is a collective responsibility that all Canadians must share. The United Church also believes that the negotiations with the Government should include consideration of a two-tract approach for dealing with issues related to residential schools. The first tract would focus primarily on litigation involving physical and sexual abuse. These matters would be resolved using some form of alternative dispute resolution process. A second tract would deal with other matters, like cultural loss issues, that require a major policy and programme response involving all parties. The ministry of reconciliation is part of our calling as a church, says Iverson. It is rooted in our biblical heritage and is especially central as we seek new ways of being in relationship with First Nations people. -- Sign The Petition To The Thai Government To Protect The Akha On Line At: http://www.PetitionOnline.com/AkhaZauh/petition.html http://www.akha.org PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/refer/pal=akha%40loxinfo.co.th Credit Card Donation Site: http://www.drugwar.com/store/proddetail.cfm?ItemID=12CategoryID=6 Your donation goes to infant care, vitamins, medical supplies, wells, bread and fish for the villages.

[CTRL] Condit admits affair with Levy
-Caveat Lector- Condit admits affair with Levy - - - - - - - - - - - - July 8, 2001 | WASHINGTON -- Rep. Gary Condit for the first time told investigators he had a romantic relationship with Chandra Levy, a source familiar with the investigation said late Saturday. But police reiterated that Condit is not a suspect in the disappearance of the former federal intern. Print story E-mail story In his third interview with Washington police and FBI agents Friday night, Condit acknowledged that his relationship with Levy, 24, was more than a friendship, said the source, who discussed the meeting on grounds of not being identified by name. Condit had been less direct in describing the relationship in two earlier interviews, the source said. Terrance Gainer, Washington's second ranking police official, would not discuss the details of the 90-minute interview, which Condit attended with his lawyer. But Gainer said at a news conference Saturday that Condit was fully cooperative, answering every question he was asked. The congressman was not a suspect before the meeting, the congressman was not a suspect during the meeting and the congressman is not a suspect since the meeting, Gainer said. Police had wanted more clarity from Condit, D-Calif., about the nature of his relationship with Levy, whose home in Modesto, Calif., is in Condit's district. The congressman had called her a good friend, but her relatives have described the relationship as intimate. Gainer refused to say whether Condit told police the relationship was romantic. But he said with the clarity of this interview and the interview with his wife I think we have the information we need about the nature of the relationship. Gainer stressed that police still don't know what happened to Levy, who has not been seen since April 30. Police are investigating Levy's disappearance as a missing persons case, not a crime. News reports that a grand jury would hear evidence about Levy's disappearance are simply wrong said Gainer. We've not called for a grand jury, we're not looking for a grand jury, said Gainer. He also said police have not subpoenaed any information from Condit. It's not necessary to use compelled testimony and compelled documents if people are cooperating with us, he said. The congressman and his wife are fully cooperative with us. Associated Press A HREF=http://www.ctrl.org/;www.ctrl.org/A DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.

How to use simple chi kung for self defense and distance killing: Index: 1)Fingers and the relevance to the four elements of material existence: 2)Basics 3)Martial use of chi kung 4)Targets and effects Fingers and the relevance to the Four elements of material existence: The Hanzi character for five (elements) is formed from the character for two. The original character only had 4 sides and a center (ether the formless middle 5th element). Metal was later added The 5 element theory is a totally erroneous contrivance. It was only made up to support a false chinese cosmology and has no basis in reality. There are only 4 (four) primary elements of material existence. What is lesser known, is that each element is respresented by a finger on our hands: 1. Index- Air 2. Middle- Fire 3. Ring- Water 4. Pinky - Earth 5. Thumb- Ether The quinta-essentia, Fifth element. Representing every element (everything) and none at all (nothing). The highest form of refinement of physical form (spirit). Note: The pericardium meridian comes down to the tip of the middle finger. Both the index and middle finger can be air fingers, special training is needed to develop the fire of the middle finger fully. This energy should not be used for healing, as it is dangerous to all life. Basics: Most people will not be able to generate enough energy to do serious damage at will. Test first on your neibors cat or something I will not go into the basics of charging breathing techniques like reverse breathing here. One can research on their own on how to do reverse breathing. Once you have learned reverse breathing. You can experiment with using it for offensive purposes. 1. Energy charging: Take several reverse breaths. You should feel heat in the lower abdomen. Alternatly experiment with drawing air into the abdomen, poofing it out, then holding the breath and then pushing the belly in and out rapidly. 2. Preparing the nerves and channels of the hand: Stretch and flex the hand repeatedly. You should feel a tingling sensation. 3. Toning the nerves of the arm and shoulder: Tense and relax the arm and shoulder repeatedly. Things should be warming up now. 4. Focus your attention on your source of heat and power in the abdomen. Then the hand, then on your target. This is a generally safer method of chi kung for self defense using chi. Some people report that they feel a creepy feeling like they are being watched when this is applyed to them. This is useful for people that you want to clear from an area, like teenage punks. The self-consciousness should be enough to drive them off. Sometimes, its best to develop a more meditative character and learn to deal with life. Or just leave. I will now introduce the short and simple variation of using the power/elements of each finger. Therefore, do the above, but alternatly, focus on your hand, then a finger of a hand for a varyed effect. Targets and effects: Key: Target(s)/element/effects(?) Note: Element will not always be listed. Fire is the most useful for decisive effect (fire consumes all) purposes generally. It also generally requires special training to develop, which I will not go into right now.

[CTRL] Illegal Weapons Shipment Seized by FBI
-Caveat Lector- no url or reference so Illegal Weapons Shipment Seized by FBI HUNTSVILLE, ALABAMA -- The interception of an illicit weapons shipment threatens to expose the Bush Regime's illegal covert policy of rearming China. The FBI has intercepted a rented truck containing crates of illegal weapons en route to New Orleans from Huntsville, Alabama. Crates marked Lemmings were discovered on board. Lemmings is an official military designation for sophisticated explosive bolts, used in the separation of missile stages. They come in two parts. One is the bolt mechanism. The other is the remote control mechanism. Since the missile program in question was cancelled, these bolts were technically classified and declared surplus items. In fact, however, these were being shipped on behalf an Irish arms merchant called Mr. Weinstein.. Prior to the shipment of the Lemmings, Mr. Weinstein had procured the missiles themselves from a supposedly cancelled military defense program. However, since he needed the explosive bolts and the automatic detonation system to complete the system, he was able to buy them at the weekly weapons auction at the Huntsville, Alabama Redstone Arsenal sale. Although the type of missile in question is unknown, it would most likely be either a theater missile or a strategic missile. A theater missile has a range of at least 1,800 miles to a maximum range of 2,600 miles. A strategic weapon is a missile with a range greater than 2,600 miles. According to the Friendly Colonel, the team of drivers of this arms shipment was shocked and surprised at being stopped by the FBI. They supposedly had no idea that their cargo was illegally obtained weapons. After being questioned by the FBI, they were allegedly released and given transportation money to get back to Huntsville. The cargo was, however, confiscated. The state police, who were the first to arrive on the scene, stopped the truck on the pretext of a moving vehicle violation. A few minutes later, the FBI moved in and the state police were told that the FBI was taking over. What the Friendly Colonel suspects is that the FBI will attempt to cover-up this incident -- and act as if it never happened. The FBI agents who seized the truck were agents who were out of the loop. In other words, they did not understand that the Friendly Colonel is involved in the execution of a state-sanctioned illegal covert operation visavis the illicit rearming of China. After the discovery of the weapons shipment, the FBI agents were told by cell phone to hush up the whole thing. This incident may prove to be the opening of the Pandora's box with regard to the Bush Regime's covert and illicit policy of state, i.e. to arm China. Previous reports have confirmed this ongoing situation as part of a covert Bush Administration policy. This incident is the latest in a series of startling events in the continuing saga of the illegal Redstone Arsenal Weapons Auction story. The revelation of this incident may again force the FBI to once again cover up this embarrassing event. Or the FBI may be forced a make a public admission about the illicit arms deals that continue to be made at the US military arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. All media groups worldwide are urged to make inquiries regarding this latest incident. The successful cover-up by the FBI is not a done deal - yet.

[CTRL] BioApocalypse: How Secret Experiments May Have Unleashed Cancer
-Caveat Lector- From New Dawn No. 64 - http://www.newdawnmagazine.com BioApocalypse: How Secret Experiments May Have Unleashed Cancer Causing Viruses By Leonard Horowitz The American people, along with the rest of the world's population, have been under attack by insidious lethal enemies. Most people cannot perceive or conceive that shadow governors are engaged in hideous biological and chemical experiments on unwitting populations. Minority and ethnic groups especially at risk for toxic exposures, many being done in the name of public health. The recent widescale spraying of malathion and Anvil, two known chemical carcinogens and immune system toxins, to allegedly prevent West Nile Virus attacks within several northeastern American states, is just one example of such public health policy based on no rational science. Most people are incapable of realising the scope and depth of such crimes against humanity. Perceiving, rather, their impotence in altering the course of history, and fearing the fight of a crusade, people rationalise their inefficacy or indifference in human terms - Don't tell me. That's just the way it is. I can't do anything about it anyway, so I'd rather not know. During the past two decades, at least six internationally known authorities advanced theories that the AIDS virus (HIV-1) was developed by biological weapons researchers, and either accidentally or intentionally transmitted it with the help of the United States Public Health Service (USPHS) and the United Nations World Health Organisation (WHO). A 1969 US military appropriations document obtained through the Freedom of Information Act called for $10 million for the development of AIDS-like viruses by 1975. In fact the National Academy of Sciences / National Research Council had informed the Department of Defense (DOD) that: [I]t would probably be possible to make a new infective microorganism which could differ in certain important aspects from any known disease-causing organisms. Most important of these is that it might be refractory to the immunological and therapeutic processes upon which we depend to maintain our relative freedom from infectious disease. During the 1960s and early 1970s, these agencies, with help from the World Health Organisation (WHO), the (US) National Cancer Institute (NCI), and the Rockefeller and Alfred P. Sloan Foundations played leading roles in the development of cancer viruses for vaccine research and germ warfare. By 1969, the WHO had provided prototype virus strains for more than 592 virus laboratories in more than 35 different countries. That year, four of the most active centres, including the NCI and US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), distributed 2,514 strains of viruses, 1888 ampoules of experimental vaccines, and about 100 samples of cell cultures throughout the WHO's viral network. 70,000 virus isolations were reported by 1970, and many, cultured for further study, were breaking out of the laboratories that tested them. In March of 1970, WHO consultants even reported the likelihood of massive cancer epidemics from such virus outbreaks. Such biological agents, they noted, may be used... to achieve the simultaneous infection of key groups of people, and the military consequences might well be of major importance However, they warned of the calculated risk that a virulent mutant might appear and spread rapidly to produce an uncontrollable epidemic on a large scale These consultants also predicted that as a consequence of such biological attacks, mass illnesses, deaths, and epidemics would require the WHO and allied agencies to furnish supplies and personnel to deal with the resulting medical emergencies. The first viruses and retroviruses used for cancer and biological weapons research passed through the NCI. Among the premier labs specifically researching, developing, and testing immune system destroying viruses was the Cell Tumor Biology Laboratory at the NCI. This was headed by Dr. Robert Gallo - the notorious alleged co-discoverer of the AIDS virus. To date it remains uncertain when Gallo discovered HIV. It was reported Gallo's discovery followed the French Pasteur Institute's Luc Montagnier's discovery of LAV, an identical virus, in 1984, but new evidence suggests he may have genetically engineered the virus as early as 1970 along with biological weapons contractors at Litton Bionetics - a subsidiary of the mega-military weapons producer Litton Industries, Inc. Dr. Gallo's behaviour is, in fact, highly suspicious. As chronicled by bestselling deceased author Randy Shilts in And the Band Played On, and more recently by Eleanor Burkitt in The Gravest Show on Earth, Gallo's collaborative efforts in search of the AIDS virus were deceitful and repugnant. The authors' charged Gallo's ego was largely responsible for delaying international progress in search of the AIDS virus. Following his alleged find, patents were filed on his and the NCI's behalf

In a letter to John Cox, president of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, the group says that money widely available for sponsorship of meetings and of doctors is an attempt to persuade psychiatry to go down the biomedical route and to ignoresocial circumstances that might be the true cause of an illness. The group plans a symbolic protest outside the Queen Elizabeth II conference centre in London, where the annual meeting of the college is taking place today in conjunction with the World Psychiatric Association. Two consultant psychiatrists, Pat Bracken and Philip Thomas from the University of Bradford, members of the group that calls itself the Critical Psychiatry Network, will join mental health service users in demonstrating their concerns. We want to open up the debate about the role of the drugs companies in terms of how we frame the issues facing mental health, said Dr Bracken. Some of us are very unhappy at the way that has been hijacked in the past 20 years by the pharmaceutical industry. The letter to Professor Cox expresses concern at the amount of advertising and sponsorship at the conference. We are also concerned about less overt but more dubious aspects of the relationship between the profession and the industry, such as sponsorship of individuals, local meetings and dinners, it says. Psychiatry is a major growth area for the pharmaceutical industry. By influencing the way in which psychiatrists frame mental health problems, the industry has developed new (and lucrative) markets for its products. This has had a major effect on the direction taken by psychiatry in the past 20 years. The group fears what is termed by companies medical education - sponsorship activities that can include paying for doctors to attend conferences. In our opinion, their interest in medical education is purely self-serving. Drug companies see doctors as 'promotional tools', and their sponsorship of educational events amounts to nothing more than advertising. The group claims that biomedical frameworks - the focus on drugs - increasingly dominate research and education in psychiatry, in spite of limited evidence as to how or whether the drugs work. Dr Bracken points to a paper in the journal Ethical Human Sciences and Services last year on the efficacy of the SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) class of antidepressant, which includes Prozac, which concluded that the drugs worked little better than dummy pills - there is a less than 10% difference in the antidepressant effect of drug versus placebo. Dr Bracken and colleagues feel the drive to find a medical cause for all mental illness ignores issues such as poverty, family breakdown, or other social or cultural problems. They call for the college to pull back from the increasingly closerelationship with the pharmaceutical industry.

[CTRL] Barenboim stirs up Israeli storm by playing Wagner
-Caveat Lector- Barenboim stirs up Israeli storm by playing Wagner Ewen MacAskill in Jerusalem Monday July 9, 2001 The Guardian The Jewish conductor, Daniel Barenboim, provoked an outcry in Israel at the weekend by defying the country's informal ban on playing Wagner, the favourite composer of the Nazis. His decision to challenge the taboo was inspired by hearing the ringing-tone of a mobile phone in Jerusalem last week. He originally had Wagner's The Valkyries on the programme for his weekend appearance at Israel's national arts festival. The organisers, after protests from Israel when the programme was published a few months ago, asked him to drop it and he agreed, replacing it with Schumann's Symphony No 4 and Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. On Saturday night, he and the Berlin Staatskapelle orchestra completed the programme as promised at Jerusalem's international convention centre. But when Barenboim returned for a second encore, he surprised the audience by asking if they wanted to hear Wagner. An emotional 30-minute debate among the audience followed, with some shouting fascist and concentration camp music, and dozens walked out, banging doors as the music began. But most stayed and Barenboim, 58, played a piece from Tristan and Isolde. He was reported to have been close to tears after receiving a standing ovation. He told the audience it had been a personal initiative: You can be angry with me, but please don't be angry with the orchestra or the festival management. He revealed that his decision was made at a press conference on Wednesday that was interrupted by the ring of a mobile phone. The telephone's ring was The Valkyries of Wagner, he said. I thought, if it can be heard on the ring of a telephone, why can't it be played in a concert hall? However, even some of those who oppose the Wagner ban were angry that Barenboim had reneged on a promise to the festival organisers. But most of the rightwing anger was simply because it was Wagner. The prime minister, Ariel Sharon, said: I would rather it hadn't been played. There are a lot of people in Israel for whom this issue is very hard. The rightwing mayor of Jerusalem, Ehud Omert, said Barenboim's decision was arrogant, uncultured and unacceptable. He added that Israel would have to review its relations with the conductor. It's not his job to determine whether the state of Israel decides to allow Wagner to be heard or not. As a musician he is great, but as a human being I could say a few other things. Ephraim Zuroff, director of the Israeli branch of the Nazi-hunting Simon Wiesenthal Centre, said: We will urge all Israeli orchestras to boycott Daniel Barenboim. Wagner, who wrote anti-semitic diatribes, was the favourite composer of Hitler. In 1981, the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra tried to play a piece from Tristan and Isolde, but a Holocaust survivor jumped on to the stage, opened his shirt and showed scars from a concentration camp. The performance was abandoned. The ban is not consistent. Wagner was for years being played on Israeli radio. A small crack was created last year when he was played for the first time on stage in a relatively low-key event by Israel's Rishon Lezion orchestra, conducted by a Holocaust survivor. But Barenboim's breach is the most serious yet, as it was in Jerusalem at Israel's premier music festival. Barenboim, who was born in Argentina, raised in Israel and lives in Berlin, opened the debate on Saturday night by challenging the audience: Despite what the Israel festival believes, there are people sitting in the audience for whom Wagner does not spark Nazi associations. I respect those for whom these associations are oppressive. It will be democratic to play a Wagner encore for those who wish to hear it. I am turning to you now and asking whether I can play Wagner? He said he did not want to offend anyone and that those who would find the music objectionable could leave. The debate, carried out in Hebrew, was lost on almost all of the orchestra. Holocaust survivors were in both camps. Michael Avraham, 67, an engineer, said: Wagner was a giant anti-semite but also a great musician. I'm against his views, but not his music.

[CTRL] FC: U.N. security investigating irate email from U.S. gun owners
-Caveat Lector- Summary: Fewer than 100 angry email messages from American gun owners led U.N. conference organizers to turn over the correspondence to U.N. internal security forces. The U.N. gun-summit began today, and -- see below -- includes proposals for a global gun database, tracking of firearms, complaints about encryption and so on. What's interesting is that even this limited outcry was enough to prompt U.N. officials to make the appropriate we're not trying to limit private ownership of guns, apparently backtracking from previous positions. Statement on U.N. meeting from Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms: http://www.usnewswire.com/topnews/Current_Releases/0601-139.html To see what kind of reaction the U.N. conference has provoked: http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a3ae8ec916ace.htm http://www.un.org/News/briefings/docs/2001/SmallArmsConfBrf.doc.htm He said he had seen some of the nearly 100 letters and e-mails that had been sent by gun-ownership advocates. They were mainly irate and strongly worded protests, and allegations that the United Nations wanted to take guns away from civilians in conflict with the constitutional rights of United States citizens. While he would not characterize any of the letters as explicitly threatening, they had been turned over to United Nations security authorities. Mr. Honwana added that it was not for his Department to determine whether the correspondence was threatening. It was up to the Organization's security staff to make that determination. http://www.un.org/News/Press/docs/2001/dc2782.doc.htm A small arms and light weapons register could be established, adds the report, at the national level to assist information-gathering and information-sharing. One option could be to extend this register to the regional level. While the option of a United Nations register was discussed, significant opposition continues to exist to a global register on the basis that it is premature and the provision of such sensitive information could undermine, not enhance, national security. http://www.un.org/News/Press/docs/2001/dc2746.doc.htm On specific points to be included in the recommendations to the Conference, the representative of Pakistan promoted a proper marking system for numbering weapons... Some tracking system was in the interest of both producers and governments, which should keep the information under their authority at all times. http://www.un.org/Depts/dda/CAB/smallarms/files/2001conf2e.pdf Furthermore, some of these activities are already conducted by the brokers or other participants in the chain of the illicit trade, by using e-commerce channels and networks. This e-commerce is frequently encoded or encrypted, thus placing an extra burden on the law enforcement institutions to detect it. -Declan United Nations opens gun conference The United Nations opens a special session in New York focusing on the international market for small arms. The UN has already angered proponents of freedom with proposals to limit or prohibit private ownership of small arms. (07/09/01) http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,29062,00.html UN investigating email from gun owners as 'threat' The United Nations is investigating whether irate letters and email from American gun enthusiasts protesting an upcoming conference on illicit trade in small arms constitute a security threat. The body has received about 100 complaints from Americans who erroneously believe the conference seeks to infringe on their right to bear arms, said a U.N. spokesman.

[CTRL] Conspiracist Jim Marrs Revealed
Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2001 From: Eileen Sutton [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Conspiracist Jim Marrs Revealed : ...WBAI producer Bill Weinberg offers this excellent analysis of right-wing conspiracist, Jim Marrs, whose book was recently offered by Marjorie Moore as a premium in WBAI's last fund drive. The use of the Marrs material to fund the station is seen by many as strong evidence of the ideological shifts taken place at WBAI, despite protests from management that changes in program content are illusory. Weinberg also discusses Leid's history with the City Sun, and DeRienzo's recent attacks on the IMC and George Soros. --efs RULE BY IDIOCY: WBAI FALLS FOR RIGHT-WING CONSPIRACY THEORY by Bill Weinberg Rule by Secrecy: The Hidden History That Connects the Trilateral Commission, the Freemasons, and the Great Pyramids. The title itself reads like a self-parody. The fact that it is not is a sad comment on our times. The fact that HarperCollins chose to publish this amateurish potboiler is even sadder. But saddest of all is that it was offered as a premium in the last fund-raising marathon by New York City's progressive WBAI Radio. WBAI, whose leadership was purged in a notorious Christmas Coup last year, once offered premiums by the likes of Noam Chomsky. But it was the voice of Jim Marrs that issued from the station's transmitter in relentless interviews during the May marathon. Marrs was chosen as the latest political guru by morning show host Marjorie Moore and approved by WBAI's Interim General Manager Utrice Leid. Both repeatedly praised his research over the air. That WBAI is now promoting Marrs, a peddler of the most vulgar anti-Semitic conspiracy theory, loans credence to those who argue that the station has assumed a rightward trajectory since the coup. In Rule by Secrecy, Marrs of course goes out of his way to disavow anti-Semitism-but in terms that are clearly anti-Semitic! While it may be true that secret organizations in the past were built along both racial and religious grounds and [a]lthough many international financiers are of Jewish descent, it is unfair to accuse the Hebrew race of an international conspiracy. Note the slippery use of Hebrew race in place of the more common and accurate term Jews. He complains that the broad brush of anti-Semitism frequently has been used to besmirch anyone offering a conspiratorial view of history. After this requisite disavowal, Marrs goes on to portray the gigantic and secretive Rothschilds banking empire as the covert and indirect power behind nearly every government on Earth (ultimately tracing their grand design for world domination to the Illuminati and Masonic conspiracies dating to ancient Egypt). His sources are the usual ones, all too familiar to followers of the far right and fascism. Topping the list, of course, is the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, the purported Jewish conspiracy masterplan which served as propaganda for the Czarist pogroms and then the Nazi Holocaust. While Marrs does concede that the Protocols are a hoax, he nonetheless vests much legitimacy in them: It is the possibility of 'historical truth' which has kept the Protocols in circulation since its inception. Today, modern conspiracy writers see it as a real program predating Nazism or Communism... The Protocols may indeed reflect a deeper conspiracy beyond its intended use to encourage anti-Semitism, one hidden within the secret upper ranks of the Iluminati and Freemasonry. The kneejerk anti-Communism which always characterizes this genre is there as well. Marrs writes that Marx's program points in The Communist Manifesto bear a striking resemblance to the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, suggesting some common origin. Much, of course, is made of Marx's Jewish ethnicity. Concludes Marrs: The goals of the Russian communists and Karl Marx were largely the same goals of the Illuminati and continental Freemasonry. Again and again, Marrs attempts to legitimize the anti-Semitism of Henry Ford, the Krupps and even Hitler, portraying them as mere over-reaction to the arrogant power of international Jewish bankers. Marrs argues that the Jews themselves were behind Hitler, another line familiar to those who follow this unsavory milieu. All of the American, British and Dutch industrialists who aided Hitler's rise to power are portrayed (on no evidence) as stand-ins for the great Rothschild empire. Marrs goes one better by claiming that Hitler was a Rothschild-that his grandmother was not impregnated by her husband Johann Georg Hiedler, but by one Baron Rothschild, in whose Vienna home she was working as a servant. Marrs cites a (conveniently) suppressed OSS report for this allegation, but provides no details on its name or where it is to be found. The actual report, by psychologist Walter C. Langer, was published in 1972 as The Mind of Adolf Hitler, but Marrs doesn't tell us that, since its findings on the theory of Hitler's

[CTRL] Colombia War Highlights Arms Trade
-Caveat Lector- ASSOCIATED PRESS Sunday, 8 July 2001 Colombia War Highlights Arms Trade -- By Nick Rosen BOGOTA -- The smuggling operation showed how fueling a war in Colombia can be nearly as easy as stepping into a Miami gun shop. Colombian arms dealers in the United States on tourist visas purchased assault rifles in Miami shops, packed them in bubble wrap and sent them home on cargo flights, listed as machinery parts. Their destination: guerrillas trying to overthrow the South American country's elected government. The smuggling operation, which Colombian and U.S. officials say was operating during 1997 and 1998, illustrates just one of the myriad ways that black market weapons elude national and international controls to fuel the violence of Colombia's 37-year civil war, rampant drug trafficking and sky-high common crime. The smuggling network from Miami to the Caribbean city of Barranquilla was also one tiny link in a global small arms trafficking problem that will be the focus of unprecedented attention with the start of a U.N. conference in New York on Monday. The 11-day conference, presided over by a Colombian diplomat, aims to combat an illicit trade believed to be worth billions of dollars a year and contribute to hundreds of thousands of deaths in conflict zones from Africa to Latin America. The impact is severe in Colombia, with more than 3,000 people killed in the civil conflict annually and one of the world's highest per capita homicide rates. Many of the guns flowing into Colombia are left over from civil wars fought during the 1980s in Central America or come from stockpiles in the former Soviet bloc. In recent years, authorities have seized handguns and assault rifles from the United States, Brazil, China, North Korea, Bulgaria and Romania. Some recent high-profile cases: On Sunday, Colombian police said they seized 31 assault rifles including 27 AK-47s three rockets and a rocket launcher sent from Nicaragua and destined for the country's largest rebel group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC. The shipment and three men were captured on San Andres Island, 372 miles off Colombia's northern coast, said National Police chief Gen. Ernesto Gilibert. A fugitive Brazilian trafficker was caught in the Colombian jungles in April, accused of trading guns for cocaine with the FARC. Peruvian authorities are investigating allegations that disgraced former spymaster Vladimiro Montesinos arranged for at least 10,000 AK-47 assault rifles Peru purchased from Jordan to be diverted to the FARC in an airdrop last year. Colombia's top rightist paramilitary leader claimed last year that he had arranged to purchase a large cache of Chinese-made arms from traffickers in Suriname, but that the FARC outbid him for the shipment once it arrived via Brazil. The U.S. government has provided Colombia army counterdrug battalions with grenade launchers, mortars and M-60 machine guns as part of a $1.3 billion aid plan. There have been no reported cases of selloffs of U.S.-provided weapons by corrupt soldiers. With coasts along two oceans, long chains of Andean mountains and rivers, and 3,700 miles of sparsely populated borders with five different countries, Colombia is particularly vulnerable to smuggling. The number of illegal firearms confiscated here grew from about 23,000 in 1994 to 42,000 last year, according to police. Ten times that amount are believed to be entering the country undetected. Colonel Alberto Ruiz, director of the DIJIN, Colombia's judicial police force, says intelligence-sharing by Colombia's neighbors has helped stem arms trafficking, but that more far-reaching measures are needed. ''We really need wider accords with countries that manufacture the guns, to try to get more control over the legal sale of weapons,'' says Ruiz, ''Because most illegal arms begin as legal arms.'' The assault rifles being shipped from Miami to Barranquilla were headed for the National Liberation Army, Colombia's second largest rebel band, according to Detective Edgar Gonzalez of the DAS state security agency. Colombian intelligence officials intercepted a phone conversation in February 1997 revealing a sale about to occur. Agents pounced on a house outside the city and captured dozens of Kalashnikov assault rifles. The smugglers got away, but Colombian officials with the help of the U.S. Bureau for Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms traced the weapons' serial numbers back to sales made a several Miami gun shops, Gonzalez said. Gonzalez said authorities have traced more than a hundred assault rifles seized here from rebels and criminal gangs back to the Miami purchases. ATF officials said they believe the group purchased at least 600 assault rifles in the United States. The five Colombians involved in the smuggling operation are now behind bars three here and two in the United States. But authorities acknowledge they may barely

Agenda Next week St. Louis will host the Freedom 21 National Conference 2001, a forum of dynamic conservatives who hope to raise awareness about the United Nations' U.N. Agenda 21 Project. Though most Americans are likely unfamiliar with the U.N. proposal, critics say it poses a clear and present danger to the American way of life. U.N. Agenda 21 is a clever attempt to undermine U.S. sovereignty through the back door, they argue, using environmental issues, gun control and fears about global overpopulation to enhance the powers of an international court system that would supersede local jurisdictions. At next week's conference, Freedom 21 organizers say they'll offer workshops featuring concrete plans to combat the growing U.N. threat, as well as a star-studded cast of speakers to explain the dangers of U.N. Agenda 21. Featured speakers will include Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, Congress' most outspoken U.N. critic, and Rep. Jo Ann Emerson, R-Mo., a congressional champion of property rights who participated in the Kyoto and Hague environmental negotiations. Phyllis Schlafly, president of Eagle Forum and longtime crusader for conservative causes, will be on hand as well as John Fund, the voice of the Wall Street Journal editorial page. Also slated to appear is Daniel New, father of Michael New, the U.S. Army soldier who refused to submit to U.N. command and was court-martialed for his courage, as well as Kent Snyder of the Liberty Study Committee. Diane Alden, one of NewsMax.com's most incisive pundits, will address the Freedom 21 conference on the adverse influence of current environmental policy. The conference kicks off Thursday, July 12, at the St. Louis airport Marriott and runs through Saturday, July 14.

Tzemach News Service ~ A weekly update of news and events regarding the nation and the people of Israel Week Ending: 7 July 2001/16 Tamuz 5761 For thus says the L-rd, 'Sing aloud with gladness for Jacob, and shout among the chiefs of the nations; Proclaim, give praise, and say, O L-rd, save Thy people, the remnant of Israel.' Jeremiah 31.7 Highlights Of This Week: :: CEASE FIRE STATISTICS :: STATE DEPARTMENT REFUSES REWARDS FOR PALESTINIAN TERRORISTS :: MORE MURDERS; CEASE FIRE CONTINUES :: BOMBING IN TEL AVIV SUBURB :: SETTLEMENT WEB SITE OF THE WEEK :: THE MACCABEAN ONLINE :: UN TO TURN OVER VIDEO TAPE :: THE NUMBER OF OLIM DIRECTED TO JERUSALEM TO BE DOUBLED :: ISRAEL STRIKES BACK AT LEBANON :: DOES ISRAEL USE PALESTINIAN WATER? :: CEASE FIRE STATISTICS: On 2 June PLO leader Yassir Arafat declared a cease fire. Since then, up to and including 2 July, there have been 373 Palestinian terrorists attacks against Israelis, not including rock throwing or fire bombs. Israel and Palestinians accepted the US-brokered Tenet Plan on 14 June. Since then there have been 200 Palestinian terrorists attacks against Israelis, not including rock throwing or fire bombs. Between the acceptance of the Tenet Plan on 14 June and 26 June, there were a total of 116 Palestinian terrorists attacks against Israelis, not including rock throwing or fire bombs. Based on this data, US President George W. Bush claimed that there had been much progress in the cease fire. On 2 July, after a total of 373 Palestinian terrorists attacks against Israelis -- not including rock throwing or fire bombs -- Arafat declared seven quiet days to end on 5 July. Meanwhile, according to a report in the WORLD TRIBUNE, the Bush administration is expressing frustration over its failure to stop the Israeli-Palestinian war and is considering decreasing US efforts. Administration officials said Bush has been dismayed that Secretary of State Colin Powell and CIA Director George Tenet have failed in their missions to stop the war. They said they are considering ending their intensive efforts to mediate a ceasefire between the two sides. :: STATE DEPARTMENT REFUSES REWARDS FOR PALESTINIAN TERRORISTS: US lawmakers are urging Secretary of US State Colin Powell to publicize rewards for the capture of Palestinian terrorists. Nineteen American citizens have been killed in terrorist attacks in Israel since the signing of the Oslo Accords in 1993. A State Department report released in April stated that publicizing such rewards in the case of Palestinian perpetrators of terror would be detrimental to ongoing efforts to capture the terrorists. However, the State Department's Rewards for Justice Web site (http://www.dssrewards.net) lists reward programs for terrorists involved in all kinds of bombings and murders: the bombing of the US Embassies in Africa; the bombing of the Khobar Towers in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia; the bombing of the Marine base in Lebanon; the bombing of TWA Flight 840; the Karachi, Pakistan Consulate Murders; the Karachi, Pakistan UTP Murders; the TWA Flight 847 Hijacking; plus several others. The site also lists several terrorists including Osama Bin Laden. If publicizing such rewards is supposed to be detrimental to ongoing efforts to capture the terrorists, then why does the US State Department list all these other terrorist acts? Why it is that only listing the Palestinian terrorists who have murdered US citizens in Israel is considered detrimental to ongoing efforts to capture the terrorists? On our Web site, http://www.tzemach.org/fyi/, is a link to a listing of addresses for the US Congress and the US Senate. Maybe you ought to ask them why. :: MORE MURDERS; CEASE FIRE CONTINUES: Aharon Obadyan, 41, father of four, of Zichron Ya'akov was shot and killed Monday near Baka a-Sharkia, north of Tulkarem, after shopping at the local market. The body of Yair Har Sinai, 51, of Susiya in the Hebron hills, was found early Tuesday morning shot in the head and chest. Har Sinai had been a shepherd for the last 19 years and was well known to Israelis and Palestinians in the area. Unarmed at the time of his murder, he did not carry a gun as a matter of principle. He is survived by his wife, Dalia, and their nine children. His oldest daughter, 21 years old, is married. His oldest son is serving in the military. His youngest son is 18 months old. Arab forces shot a handicapped Jew to death near Tulkarm Wednesday. The victim was found on a road, outside of his car, shot in the back. Security sources say it seems the man, who suffered from a handicap in his legs, was attempting to run away from his attackers. On Wednesday night, a 54-year-old Israeli Arab from Tira, suspected of collaborating with Israel, was shot dead from a passing car at the entrance to the town.
[CTRL] Rob Stiff holds Marine dog tags belonging to Lance Cpl. Allan George Decker
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! May 2001: Rob Stiff holds Marine dog tags belonging to Lance Cpl. Allan George Decker in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Wednesday, July 04, 2001 Email this Article ORLANDO, Fla. â Lance Cpl. Allan George Decker made the ultimate sacrifice during his 1968 tour of Vietnam, which is why two Florida businessmen were sickened earlier this year to find his Marine dog tags for sale in a back-alley market in Ho Chi Minh City. Rob Stiff and Jim Gain made a second trip to Vietnam in May just to buy the tags, and hundreds of others. Upon returning to America, they set about trying to reunite soldiers and their families with the lost tags. On Wednesday, Decker's dog tags will be given to his mother in an Independence Day ceremony at the Orlando cemetery where he's buried. I'm just overwhelmed with it all, said Ruth Decker, who lives in Punta Gorda. I just think, 'Wow, the way the Lord makes things work out.' Since the end of the war, Vietnamese field workers have found in their rice paddies all sorts of military debris: boots, helmets, badges, buttons, medals and dog tags. Servicemen usually wore the tags â silver discs that listed a soldier's name, military identification number and blood type â around their necks, but in the field many put them in their boots so they wouldn't jingle. Stiff and Gain weren't looking for war mementos when they traveled to Vietnam in January. They wanted to check the commercial climate for possible business ventures. But in a market not frequented by tourists, they found the dog tags dangling from a string. It was really eerie and we were disgusted, said Stiff, 27. Despite their revulsion, they left the tags there. But back home in America, they couldn't escape the memory. People asked, 'What if they're fake?' Stiff said. Well, our question was, 'What if they're real?' In May, they returned to Vietnam to buy all the American dog tags they could find. It took days to scour Ho Chi Minh City and sort through thousands of tags â some printed in Vietnamese, others destroyed or illegible â and returned home with about 640. The total cost of the tags was $180. They sometimes paid less than 14 cents each. Stiff and Gain transcribed what was printed on each the best they could, then complied a database of names and ID numbers to list on their Web site: www.founddogtags.com. A dozen tags matched names listed on the black granite Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C. One day, Jim comes into my office and says, 'You won't believe this. We've got matches for the Wall,' Stiff said. One of the first names they uncovered was Decker's. With the help of Rep. Ric Keller, an Orlando Republican, and the Defense Department they tracked Ruth Decker to Punta Gorda and called her June 21. She was so full of joy, Stiff said. Decker began his Vietnam tour as a machine-gunner with the 2nd Battalion, 27th Regiment of the 3rd Marine Division on Feb. 16, 1968. On Aug. 25, 1968, the 19-year-old Marine was killed in Quang Nam province, one of more than 58,000 Americans to die in Vietnam. He had lost his dog tags during his six months in Vietnam. Allen was killed on a Sunday, and we didn't receive the word until the following Thursday, said Ruth Decker. My husband and I were just crushed. But the next day, we received a letter from his buddy, she said. He said that Allan believed in God very strongly, and He will take care of him. And that was my consolation right from the beginning. During Wednesday's ceremony, the Florida businessmen will present the dog tags to Decker's mother and family members at Woodlawn Cemetery. She plans to lay flowers and flags on the graves of her son and husband, who died in 1988. This is going to be a very special Fourth of July, Stiff said. I'm truly learning what a patriot is. It's more than just fireworks now. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.

[CTRL] Prying Eyes
Free Congress Foundation's Notable News Now Excerpts from FCF Programming and Other FCF Projects July 10, 2001 The Free Congress Commentary PRYING EYES by Lisa S. Dean Every now and again something startles us, forcing us out of the narrow, sheltered worlds in which we live and we wonder how that something got there. Usually that something is not good and it forces us into action to either stop it or prevent it from getting worse. Such is the case in Denver, Colorado where citizens are up in arms over a new traffic light surveillance system that not only captures the picture of their vehicles on camera, but their faces as well. The system is part of a new Department of Motor Vehicles initiative designed to stop identity theft and drivers license fraud. When the motorist is stopped at a traffic light, the camera takes his picture and the face recognition software maps out a three-dimensional image of the driver's face, matching that record to the one in the DMV database, to come up with a positive identification of the individual driving the car. But the system is not just restricted to motorists. Last week, the city of Tampa, Florida became the first city in the US to install a similar system on street corners in an effort by law enforcement to identify criminals walking along the city streets. But how did this happen, you might ask? How did we get to this point where what was once science fiction is now reality? Well, cast your minds back, if you will to three years ago when Image Data, a US company, received a grant totaling $1.5 million from the US Secret Service to develop a database containing every motorist's photo ID. Image Data had entered in to agreement with a number of states to buy their citizens' driver's license photos to enter into the database. The Secret Service wanted a complete database containing the picture ID of every US motorist for the purpose of catching criminals. There was a bit of a scuffle over a government agency selling private information to a business but very few saw the potential danger in doing so. While Image Data was busy building its database for federal law enforcement, states were passing laws requiring the installation of cameras on city streets and intersections, allegedly to monitor traffic flow. Many privacy advocates both here in Washington and across the country saw the big picture and were alarmed at the potential abuse of our privacy that this system could cause. The combination of street cameras monitoring pedestrians and motorists and face recognition software that would identify pedestrians and motorists was a lethal one. Needless to say, their concerns were ignored and even dismissed as paranoid or anti-government. Well, you can call them paranoid or whatever other name you like. I call them correct. I predict that the next step for Big Brother is for law enforcement to combine our personal information that government agencies have been collecting with the face recognition software. That way they will not only know where we are, but who we are and everything about our lives, how much money we have in our bank accounts, what medication we might be taking or what illnesses we're being treated for, whether we paid our taxes, and so forth, just because we happened to walk in front of a camera on the way to the store or the doctor's office. Total strangers don't know this information, but the government will because it claims to have the right to know it and there's no one telling them they don't because the citizens who can object aren't doing so. We Americans need to open our eyes and watch where we're going or like the people in Denver and Tampa, we're going to wake up and wonder how we got to where we are and realize that there's no way to turn back.

[CTRL] Fwd: Washingtonpost.com: Barry Goldwater Dead at 89
This man Goldwater was a real paradox in the art of politics. Nice story here of the man - but if Harry Truman could make it, why couldn't Goldwater only it seems to me that Goldwater was running on the wrong ticket? During this time frame the CFR was moving in strong and stood each of their men, in their place - was Barry Goldwater one of the puppets - well he was called everything else in the book. Also, who was Ronald Regan ??? Saba Goldwater Remembered By Bart Barnes Washington Post Staff Writer Saturday, May 30, 1998; Page A01 Barry M. Goldwater, 89, a five-term U.S. senator from Arizona and a champion of conservatism whose 1964 presidential candidacy launched a revolution within the Republican Party, died yesterday at home in Paradise Valley, a suburb of Phoenix. He suffered a stroke in 1996 that damaged the part of the brain that controls memory and personality. Last September, family members said he was in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. Mr. Goldwater, who retired from the Senate in 1986 as one of his party's most respected elder statesmen, suffered a resounding defeat when he ran for president. But his efforts helped prepare the way for the election of another conservative Republican, Ronald Reagan, as president in 1980. Mr. Goldwater carried only six states and 36 percent of the popular vote in 1964. After the election, most analysts and commentators concluded that the Republican Party was hopelessly divided, and that Mr. Goldwater and his conservative philosophy were all but politically dead. From collection of Ken Rudin In fact, he had wrested control of the GOP from the Eastern liberal wing that had dominated it for years. By 1980, he was acknowledged as the founder of a conservative movement that had become a vital element in mainstream Republican thinking and a major ingredient in Reagan's political ascendancy. It was a 1964 speech delivered on behalf of Mr. Goldwater that brought Reagan to national prominence and helped launch his political career. During his 1964 presidential campaign, Mr. Goldwater was attacked by Democrats and opponents within his own party as a demagogue and a leader of right-wing extremists and racists who was likely to lead the United States into nuclear war, eliminate civil rights progress and destroy such social welfare programs as Social Security. But that perception mellowed with time. Mr. Goldwater returned to the Senate in 1969 and went on to serve three more terms. Long before his retirement, he had come to be regarded as the Grand Old Man of the Republican Party and one of the nation's most respected exponents of conservatism, which he sometimes defined as holding on to that which was tested and true and opposing change simply for the sake of change. His friends said he was often misunderstood, but his reputation for personal integrity was unblemished. At the height of the Watergate crisis, when the Republicans in Congress needed someone to tell President Richard M. Nixon he should resign, they chose Mr. Goldwater. But instead of telling the president what to do, Mr. Goldwater simply informed him in the Oval Office on Aug. 7, 1974, that the Republicans in Congress were unwilling and unable to stop his impeachment and conviction should he remain in office. Nixon announced his resignation the next day. 'An American Original' A stickler for the Constitution, Mr. Goldwater refused to join the Republicans of the New Right during the 1980s when they began to press for legislation that would limit the authority of the federal courts to curb organized prayer in public schools or to order busing for school integration. He opposed busing and he backed prayer in schools, Mr. Goldwater said, but he thought it a dangerous breach of the separation of powers for Congress to be telling the courts what to do. Goldwater in 1995 (AP) Mr. Goldwater's political philosophy also included a strong military posture, a deep mistrust of the Soviet Union and a conviction that increasing the scope of government programs was not the way to solve social problems. In all, he served 30 years in the Senate, but he was out of office for four years after losing his bid for the presidency, and he was in a political limbo for almost 10 years after that defeat. He reemerged during the Watergate crisis of the early 1970s. Then, the bluntness and candor that had so often damaged Mr. Goldwater's presidential campaign a decade earlier and his outspoken and harsh criticism of Nixon's failure to deal with the growing Watergate scandal were among the vital ingredients of his political renaissance. The president, he contended, had shown a tendency to dibble and dabble and argue on very nebulous grounds like executive privilege and confidentiality when all the American people wanted to know was the truth. A quintessential westerner and a man of great personal charm, Mr. Goldwater was an incurable gadgeteer who loved such devices as the electronically operated flagpole at

The Uk artistocracy have more than a reputation for being pink, and there seems to be a tie in with the Mastery of the Human Race and pink issues. To get our answers we need to look at the illuminati and reptilian fascination with the human energies called the kundalini - the electrical system that the ordinary human being isn't aware of. This energy is a direct highway to the soul - and the 'opening of the gate' is synonymous with reptoid/magik ritual - the ritual of the eye of horus or 'sore ass' is all about the rebirth of the age of horus and the domination of the human species - the opening of the gates to enable - presumably parasitical hosting. Our/my assumptions used to be that the nazi style master race were abherrant because of their sexual deviance and its misuse but by now we all must be starting to realise that these practises are not deviant - THEY ARE THE NORM for this type of non-human Being.

[CTRL] SOMALIA: Amid war, famine, selling guns 'guarantees my family will be fed'
-Caveat Lector- http://www.accessatlanta.com/partners/ajc/epaper/editions/today/news_b394a405f34431dc005c.html Page 1/A Section July 9, 2001 SOMALIA: Amid war, famine, selling guns 'guarantees my family will be fed' SPECIAL REPORT: SMALL ARMS, MASS DESTRUCTION Margaret Coker - Staff Monday, July 9, 2001 Mogadishu, Somalia --- Like most small business owners, Ali Shalia counts and cleans his inventory before opening his shop each morning. Standing under a corrugated tin roof that provides shade for his wooden kiosk, he grabs a rag and a can of oil and rubs down the nozzles and carbines of a dozen or so assault rifles. Next, he builds displays of ammunition in neat stacks by caliber. I'm a businessman. I sell whatever I can move, and guns are something that's always in demand, said Shalia, a lanky 31-year-old father of three who runs one of many stalls that sell used weapons in Mogadishu's Bakhar market. This is one of the few businesses that guarantees my family will be fed. The Somali capital, located on Africa's northeast coast on the Indian Ocean, is a post-apocalyptic landscape straight out of Road Warrior. Toyota pickups careen through rutted dirt streets lined with bullet-riddled homes and bombed-out buildings. The rusty vehicles brim with teenage gunmen whose main accessories are braids of ammunition draped around their necks and a stem of the local narcotic, a leafy plant called qat that resembles green basil, hanging from their mouths. War has rocked this country for nearly half of Shalia's life. The intervention of a U.N. peacekeeping force in 1992 to protect relief supplies and a disastrous U.S. attempt to eliminate the country's top warlord that left 18 U.S. Rangers dead 10 months later weren't enough to restore order. Today, the country is still controlled by warlords and their private militias, armed mostly with Russian-made weapons. Most of these arms have been circulating in Somalia since the Soviet era, but aid officials say new Kalashnikovs are arriving, despite international sanctions, in private shipments from neighboring countries like Ethiopia. Many of these guns end up at the Bakhar market or another of Somalia's many open-air bazaars where weapons can be found alongside consumer goods and car parts. Listening to Shalia list the goods he has sold the last couple of months is like hearing a roster of attractions at an international weapons show: AK-47s from Russia, North Korea and Yugoslavia, hand-held rocket launchers, 24 mm anti-aircraft guns, anti-tank mines and hundreds of rounds of ammunition. Although the country is constantly beset by famine in one region or another, Shalia, who prefers to dress in baggy jeans and button-down shirts, says he can't remember a time when guns or bullets were ever in short supply. The warlords used to get their weapons from us, here at the market, but now they have international contacts to buy from. When they sell off their old guns, they still come to us, he said. The average cost for a Russian-made Kalashnikov at the Bakhar market is $200, while a Russian-made collapsible AK-47 goes for $250. (In legal markets elsewhere, such weapons sell for as much as 10 times that much.) North Korean versions are slightly cheaper at $230. A used, American-made M-16 sells for $100. There aren't as many American guns here, Shalia said. We don't think they are as good as the Russian weapons. Most days, Shalia says he makes a sale. A typical buyer, he said, isn't interested in just one Kalashnikov. People routinely purchase 15 or 20 assault rifles at a time. The United Nations estimates that 90 percent of Somalia's population owns a gun, a statistic that reflects the traditional value placed on weapons as well as the vital need for self-protection. Our business is an essential part of life in Mogadishu. I'd gladly sell something else if there was peace, but for now, I'm providing a service my people need, Shalia said.

Condit's solid support bleeds away By John Ritter, USA TODAY MODESTO, Calif. â Gary Condit's safe and supportive congressional district has turned frosty and skeptical with reports that he admitted having an affair with a missing 24-year-old government intern. Constituents who just a month ago defended the seven-term Democrat and took him at his word that Chandra Levy was nothing more than a good friend now are demanding full disclosure. Across the district Sunday, some of them were calling for Condit's resignation. Many expressed doubt that he can survive politically in a district that had routinely returned him to Washington with more than 65% of the vote. He ought to come clean about everything and stop speaking through his staff, said Robert Bailey, 46, a recreational vehicle salesman from Riverbank. It just appears that he's trying to hide something. Randy Reeves, who manages an auto repair business here, said Condit will lose the support of many conservative voters like himself if it's true he was unfaithful to his wife. I think he should resign, and if he doesn't, I'll be surprised, Reeves, 44, said. He was one Democrat I was able to support because of his integrity. But now his integrity is suspect. Condit, 53, has refused to comment beyond statements that he and Levy were friends because, he said, he didn't want to distract from the police investigation of her disappearance. Washington police interviewed Condit for the third time on Friday and said again that he is not a suspect. Law enforcement sources said that Condit admitted in the interview that he was having a sexual affair with Levy, who was last seen April 30. A career politician, Condit had earned the loyalty of voters in California's 18th Congressional District through years of painstaking attention to constituents' needs and a voting record that reflected the values of the agricultural Central Valley. He has a reputation as a moderate who will break ranks with Democrats when it's in the best interests of his district, which spreads from the southern Sacramento suburbs toward Fresno. But after weeks of silence and after an aunt said Levy told her she had been seeing the congressman, his rock-solid base appears to be crumbling. Sunday's Modesto Bee editorialized that each day that passes without the public hearing from him only increases the attention, the criticism and even the suspicion. The public's confidence in him is eroding, his credibility has been damaged and his character and ability to effectively represent his district are in question. An NBC News poll found that 53% of voters in the 18th District believe that Condit should say more about his relationship with Levy. And with the lessons of the Bill Clinton-Monica Lewinsky scandal, some constituents said they don't understand what they see as Condit's lack of damage control. It would have been better for his political future if he had fessed up early on rather than denying it or just not saying anything, said Dick Jacobs, 56, who runs a non-profit agency for the disabled here. Michael Lockard, 34, a commercial real estate appraiser here, said Condit has borrowed Clinton's tactics: skating around the truth and not being direct. Lockard's wife, Dodie, 35, a pharmaceutical saleswoman, said, People in Modesto are disappointed that Condit wasn't honest with the community. Most people say they don't believe Condit had anything to do with Levy's disappearance. Others say they wonder whether he is hiding anything else. There are questions now about his involvement in her disappearance, said Lynn Reeves, Randy Reeves' wife. Some are willing to give Condit the benefit of the doubt. We haven't heard his side of it yet, said Mike Streeter, 32, a physical therapist here. But if he really was just trying to cover his tail and holding up the investigation, then he should resign. Condit has a chance to regain part of his popularity, some say. If the public believes he's cooperating with the investigation, that he's not leaving anything out, I suspect he can bounce back from this, Jacobs said. Condit would next face the voters in November 2002. Besides, I don't think the Republicans have a strong candidate to put up against him at this point. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.

[CTRL] Rep. Condit Criticized in Case of Missing Intern
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Rep. Condit Criticized in Case of Missing Intern By Lori Santos WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The congressman caught up in the case of a missing intern withheld crucial information from police and should be a suspect in her disappearance, a former federal prosecutor said on Sunday. Police questioned Rep. Gary Condit (news - bio - voting record), the 53-year-old Democrat from California, for a third time and said on Saturday he had answered all their questions and was not a suspect in the disappearance of Chandra Levy, who was last seen on April 30. But Joseph diGenova, a former U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, told the ``Fox News Sunday'' program he believed Condit should be a suspect because he did not disclose his intimate relationship with the intern. DiGenova, a Republican who handled many high profile cases, including that of convicted Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard, also said he was ``absolutely stunned'' that city police had not searched Condit's apartment. ``I cannot believe that that was not one of the first things that police did not ask him to do, especially in light of the fact that the congressman obviously lied to them in the first two interviews, and it wasn't until the third interview that he finally told the truth and admitted that he had a relationship with this missing person,'' diGenova said. ``He withheld that information from the police over a number of weeks. It's absolutely outrageous. It is indefensible,'' diGenova said. ``...He should be a suspect, under all the facts and circumstances,'' he added. On CNN's ``Late Edition,'' former U.S. Attorney General Richard Thornburgh also asserted Condit had ``not been completely forthcoming'' until the third interview and said the delay likely damaged the investigation. ``That's two months later, all that time has been lost,'' said Thornburgh, who led the Justice Department (news - web sites) during the first Bush administration. Though police would not comment on the nature of the relationship between the congressman, who is married, and the 24-year-old intern, Levy's aunt said on Friday Condit was involved in a romantic relationship with Levy. It was widely reported that Condit acknowledged to police investigators on Friday evening he had an affair with Levy that was continuing at the time she disappeared. But Abbe Lowell, Condit's attorney, declined on Sunday to describe the relationship between the congressman and the intern but asserted Condit had been completely forthcoming to police. ``The congressman has answered their questions each time to the best of his ability,'' Lowell told ABC's ``This Week.'' Photos Reuters Photo Lowell also said Condit has not been subpoenaed for anything by police nor had authorities asked to search his apartment. ``If they need something that we can help them with, we'll get it to them,'' he said. ``But they haven't asked us for anything at this point.'' Lowell also sidestepped questions about whether Levy might have been pregnant at the time of her disappearance. ``I certainly know the questions the police asked the congressman, I know his answers. And we're not getting into that,'' he told the CBS ``Face the Nation'' program. ``This is a situation in which the congressman has told the police everything, has been cooperative, has been said never to be a suspect, and anything about what he's told them is not a matter of the public, it's a matter of the private,'' Lowell said. Condit has been at the center of a furor surrounding Levy's disappearance shortly after she finished up a government internship in Washington. He represents Levy's home town of Modesto in California. Many of his fellow lawmakers urged him to be more forthcoming. ``The most critical thing that you need to do in this situation... is get the facts out. And it's critical that he does that,'' Rep. Martin Meehan, a Massachusetts Democrat, told NBC's ''Meet the Press.'' Rep. Christopher Shays (news - bio - voting record), a Connecticut Republican, said, ``It's clearly a lesson -- you have got to tell the truth. If you say you didn't have an affair and you had an affair, that's wrong.'' And Rep. Dick Armey, the House Republican leader, said the case could come before the House ethics committee if a complaint were filed and predicted it might be hard for Condit to survive politically. But Armey told ``Fox News Sunday'' that Condit should not step down at this time. ``We've got more speculation, it seems to me, than we do fact,'' he said. ``I'm still not convinced that he did anything.'' *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U.

[CTRL] Evolution fraud in current biology textbooks
-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Evolution fraud in current biology textbooks Exposed as fakes decades ago, major publishers still include them -- -- © 2001 WorldNetDaily.com One of the most popular and familiar pieces of evidence used to bolster the theory of evolution â reproduced for decades in most high school and college biology textbooks â is fraudulent, and has been known to be fraudulent for nearly 100 years. Most people have seen those drawings of developing human embryos next to developing animal embryos, and they look virtually indistinguishable. (The Haeckel embryo sequence shown purported to show â left to right â a hog, calf, rabbit and human). This has long been said to demonstrate that humans share a common ancestry with these animals and thus prove the theory of evolution. These pictures were designed by German zoologist Ernst Haeckel. What few people know â and one of many surprises in the evolution debate reported in the current edition of WorldNet magazine â is that they were fakes. At Jena, the university where he taught, Haeckel was charged with fraud by five professors and convicted by a university court. His deceit was exposed in Haeckelâs Frauds and Forgeries, a 1915 book by J. Assmuth and Ernest R. Hull, who quoted 19 leading authorities of the day. Ernst Haeckel It clearly appears that Haeckel has in many cases freely invented embryos, or reproduced the illustrations given by others in a substantially changed form, said anatomist F. Keibel of Freiburg University. Zoologist L. Rütimeyer of Basle University called his distorted drawings a sin against scientific truthfulness. Yet, despite Haeckelâs fraud conviction and early exposure, Western educators continued using the pictures for decades as proof of the theory of evolution. The matter was settled with finality by Dr. Michael Richardson, an embryologist at St. Georgeâs Medical School in London. He found there was no record that anyone ever actually checked Haeckelâs claims by systematically comparing human and other fetuses during development. So Richardson assembled a scientific team that did just that â photographing the growing embryos of 39 different species. In a 1997 interview in The Times of London, Dr. Richardson stated: This is one of the worst cases of scientific fraud. Itâs shocking to find that somebody one thought was a great scientist was deliberately misleading. It makes me angry. ... What he [Haeckel] did was to take a human embryo and copy it, pretending that the salamander and the pig and all the others looked the same at the same stage of development. They donât. ... These are fakes. Today â believe it or not â Haeckelâs drawings still appear in many high school and college textbooks. Among them are Evolutionary Biology by Douglas J. Futuyma (Third Edition, Sunderland, MA: Sinauer Associates, 1998), and also the bedrock text, Molecular Biology of the Cell (third edition), whose authors include biochemist Dr. Bruce Alberts, president of the National Academy of Sciences. Haeckelâs fraudulent drawings are just one of evolutionâs pillars now under spectacular scientific assault. There are many others. To experience WND's in-depth coverage of the raging debate between evolution and intelligent design â a battle that increasingly includes outright censorship â read the July edition of WorldNet magazine, WND's popular monthly print publication. The groundbreaking cover story is titled, EVOLUTION: The basis of all life, or a fairy tale for scientists who reject God? I promise you will be rocked by this issue of WorldNet, said Editor and CEO Joseph Farah of the current edition on evolution.

[CTRL] International Bookburning in Progress
-Caveat Lector- ((___)) cDc communications [ x x ] HACKTIVISMO \ / A Special Message of Hope (' ') July 4th, 2001 (U) FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE INTERNATIONAL BOOKBURNING IN PROGRESS [July 4, 2001 - LUBBOCK, TX.] Free speech is under siege at the margins of the Internet. Quite a few countries are censoring access to the Web through DNS [Domain Name Service] filtering. This is a process whereby politically incorrect information is blocked by domain address -- the name that appears before the dot com suffix. Others employ filtering which denies politically or socially challenging subject matter based on its content. Hacktivismo and the CULT OF THE DEAD COW have decided that enough is too much. We are hackers and free speech advocates, and we are developing technologies to challenge state-sponsored censorship of the Internet. Most countries use intimidation and filtering of one kind or another including the Peoples Republic of China, Cuba, and many Islamic countries. Most claim to be blocking pornographic content. But the real reason is to prevent challenging content from spreading through repressive regimes. This includes information ranging from political opinion, foreign news, women's issues, academic and scholarly works, religious information, information regarding ethnic groups in disfavor, news of human rights abuses, documents which present drugs in a positive light, and gay and lesbian content, among others. The capriciousness of state-sanctioned censorship is wide-ranging. [1] * In Zambia, the government has attempted to censor information revealing their plans for constitutional referendums. * In Mauritania -- as in most countries --, owners of cybercafes are required to supply government intelligence agents with copies of e-mail sent or received at their establishments. * Even less draconian governments, like Malaysia, have threatened web-publishers for violating their publishing licenses by publishing frequent updates: _timely, relevant_ information is seen as a threat. * South Korean's national security law forbids South Koreans from having any contact -- including contact over the Internet -- with their North Korean neighbors. * Sri Lanka threatened news sites with possible revocation of their licenses if coverage of a presidential election campaign was not partial to the party of the outgoing president. The risks of accessing or disseminating information are often great. * In Ukraine, a decapitated body found near the village of Tarachtcha is believed to be that of Georgiy Gongadze, founder and editor of an on-line newspaper critical of the authorities. * In August, 1998, eighteen year old Turk Emre Ersoz was found guilty of insulting the national police in an Internet forum after participating in a demonstration that was violently suppressed by the police. His ISP provided the authorities with his address. * Journalist Miroslav Filipovic has the dubious distinction of having been the first Journalist accused of spying because of articles published on the Internet -- in this case detailing the abuses of certain Yugoslav army units in Kosovo. We are sickened by these egregious violations of information and human rights. The liberal democracies have talked a far better game than they've played on access to information. But hackers are not willing to watch the custodians of the International Convention on Civil and Political Rights and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights turn them into a mockery. We are willing to put our money where our mouth is. Hacktivismo and the CULT OF THE DEAD COW are issuing the HACKTIVISMO DECLARATION as a declaration of outrage and a statement of intent. It is our Magna Carta for information rights. People have a right to reasonable access of otherwise lawfully published information. If our leaders aren't prepared to defend the Internet, we are. - [1] some information cited in this press release was either paraphrased, or quoted directly, from the Enemies of the Internet report published by Reporters Without Frontiers, and may be found at http://www.rsf.fr THE HACKTIVISMO DECLARATION assertions of liberty in support of an uncensored internet DEEPLY ALARMED that state-sponsored censorship of the Internet is rapidly spreading with the assistance of transnational corporations, TAKING AS A BASIS the principles and purposes enshrined in Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) that states, Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers, and Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) that says, 1.

[CTRL] CIA Cash Funded Drug Trade
http://www.scotlandonsunday.com/world.cfm?id=CIA08071feed=N CIA cash funded drugs trade By Nick Peters in Washington WHILE Peru's disgraced former spymaster Vladimiro Montesinos awaits trial in a maximum security jail in Lima, it has emerged that millions of dollars donated by the United States' Central Intelligence Agency not only helped him amass a small personal fortune, but was also responsible for one of the most embarrassing espionage debacles of recent years. Skimming off money that the CIA intended for use in Peru's anti-drug trafficking efforts, Montesinos set up a major arms deal in the Middle East that funnelled 10,000 AK47 rifles to left-wing FARC guerrillas in Colombia, thereby fomenting the very uprising that America has pledged $1.3bn to stamp out. FARC has transformed itself from a Marxist insurgency group trying to seize power in Colombia into a quasi-drug cartel, making millions from the drug smugglers who operate under their protection. Bill Clinton's administration decided it was worth investing spectacular amounts of cash to help the Colombian government stamp out the guerrillas and thus leave the smugglers unprotected. At first Vladimiro Montesinos looked as if he could be a significant asset in the US fight against both Communism and the drugs trade. In the mid-1970s, while an officer in the Peruvian army, he came to the US to show the CIA evidence of Soviet arms deals with Peru. It was enough to get him on the agency's payroll. Montesinos rose to become spymaster for the controversial former president of Peru, Albert Fujimori, himself now being sought on suspicion of human rights violations. Throughout the 1990s the flow of money became a torrent, the stated intention being to help Peru fight the trans-Andean drug trade. But after years of little or no oversight over how the cash was spent, Montesinos started turning the money to his own ends. He was, according to prosecutors, also guilty of flagrant human rights violations against political opponents, including murder. The CIA was well aware of his actions but did little to rein Montesinos in. But the CIA had not banked on Montesinos' double-dealing. According to Peruvian prosecutors he was also taking protection money from drug traffickers, which joined a stream of corrupt cash that amassed him a fortune close to $264m. The CIA decided to call a halt when the FARC arms deal demonstrated conclusively that he had gone too far. Montesinos became a fugitive in October 2000 and was captured at the end of last month by Venezuelan agents in Caracas. Today Montesinos is on hunger strike in protest against being held in the same jail, one he actually designed, as many of his former enemies. If found guilty, the ex-spymaster faces the rest of his life in prison. That at least would ease the CIA's embarrassment. But in the US, the CIA's involvement in the Montesinos case has raised barely a ripple of comment.
[CTRL] Martin On Robert Mueller
http://www.almartinraw.com/column27.html DoJ Cover-Up Specialist Bobby Mueller Named FBI Chief by Al Martin Long-time Department of Justice/ Reagan-Bush Regime cabalist Robert Mueller has been selected as the new Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Mueller was installed in the Department of Justice in 1986, as the Number 3 Man under George Terwilliger. He was part of the same gang that controlled legal and political liability visavis Iran-Contra. In fact, it should be noted that he colluded with DoJ's Domestic Criminal Section Chief Dave Margolis and International Criminal Section Chief Mark Richards to cover up Iran-Contra liability for the Reagan-Bush Regime. Bobby Mueller personally handled the effort to try and distance Bush Sr. and the Bush Faction from the infamous Jordanian coffee merchant Mansour Barbouti. Barbouti, of course, was involved with the famous West Palm Beach "Cherry Syrup Case" [see Chapter 7 of "The Conspirators" by Al Martin] which was about the illegal exportation of chemicals used in chemical weapons sold to both Iraq and Iran -- both nations with whom the US maintained weapons embargoes. Even though he was supposed to be a cover-up specialist, Mueller inadvertently exposed Barbouti's connection to Oliver North. Despite the fact that Barbouti was being protected by the CIA, he had to flee the country. He went back to Jordan to hide out because of Mueller's incompetence. Barbouti was forced to hide out in his townhouse in Aqabah. The Washington Post even sent journalists to Jordan to try to track him down. Another journalist Margie Sloan also knew quite a bit about Barbouti. She coaxed Louis Champlaign out of the closet and got him to be a whistle-blower. Louis had managed Barbouti's chemical plant in West Palm Beach, and therefore was in a position to know the real story. She gave him an interview because Louis didn't make out very well financially in the very end. Nobody was taking care of old Louis for keeping his mouth shut. At the same time, Mueller was involved in some tug-of-war with his soon to be ex-wife. The ex-wife said he was involved in an affair and in financial improprieties and other things that don't go down well with the cadre of old right wingers, whose wives are supposed to keep their mouths shut and stay married to them forever. Eventually Mueller was pushed out of the Department of Justice. Mueller also came under some criticism in 1992 by Sen. Christopher Dodd (D.-CT), then Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Dodd's office was looking at Mueller for having shredded documents linking senior Reagan-Bush officials to illicit transactions involving BCCI and the personal profiteering of Republicans close to the Bush Regime in schemes financed by BCCI. Chief among those schemes was Top Sail Development. [See Chapter 10 of "The Conspirators" by Al Martin.] Today people have mostly forgotten that Mueller did have his 15 minutes of fame (or infamy) in the negative limelight. The significance of Bobby Mueller's return is that it's part of an ongoing operation to rebuild the old political/legal liability control feature within the Department of Justice. According to the National Journal magazine, 43 percent of Bush Jr.'s top 300 appointees worked for Bush Sr. There were also allegations made by journalist George Williamson in the San Francisco Chronicle that in his capacity as US Attorney, Northern District San Francisco, Mueller tried to distance senior Reagan-Bush era policymakers from certain CIA-connected narcotics trafficking cases in his jurisdiction. Like Stanley Marcus, former US Attorney in Miami and Lowell Jensen, who were both appointed judges, Mueller was placed in a position where he could control liability, mostly narcotics trafficking liability. Mueller was also instrumental in the DoJ cover-up of the infamous Pan Am 103 Bombing case in which it was revealed by the British Defense Ministry that at least two CIA agents were on board the ill-fated flight. The Bush administration then exerted pressure to get rid of British Defense Minster Michael Hazeltine. Insider sources reveal that despite the track record of recent FBI debacles, the only inducement that Mueller insisted on in becoming the new FBI chief was that his Document Shredding Bonus Points be carry-forwarded to his new position. Mueller insists that he just wants carry forward credits for the documents he had previously shredded at the Department of Justice. It's well known that he always wanted to have the DoJ's Million Documents Shredded Citation, held by well-accomplished document shredders like George Bush, former Attorney General Billy Barr, and others. The citation comes with a miniature model of the huge turbo shredders used by the Department of Defense.

[CTRL] Evolution Design
-Caveat Lector- Could one of you people out there who reject evolution please explain to me why evolution and intelligent design are mutually preclusive? It doesn't really follow that all that oppose darwins evolution should necessarily be fundamentally christian. However, for me, my picture of evolution is more complex and more scientific than religious belief. [although I am Christian too] It is based upon the research into Chaos theory, Complexity and Emergence. Order Out of Chaos the 33rd degree masons tell us - and so does 10,000BC Hindu sanskrit and so does the the modern research at santa fe - www.santafe.edu Its long been known eg. the compilation of darwin refutations by Richard Milton in his book THE FACTS OF LIFE, and also by the paleontologists of china - who have a fossil record that sees darwin off by all accounts - that Charles darwin was onto some basic idea some of which worked - but couldn't really account for everything. It suited 20th century politics to latch onto darwin - so-called social darwinism - an easy idea like survival of the fittest - the long slow 'Climbing Mount Improbable' ed. Richard dawkins - but the real and true science behind such theories is actually suppressed - for various reasons. 1. Catastrophism - the sudden revolution of the world as documented by Beaumont and Velikovsky [who plagiarised beaumont] has it that the established order can disappear overnight - absolute chaos and anarchy as a social paradigm - and the fittest don't get a fair chance to bully anyone because they simply don't have the time to get it together amongst the sudden overturning of mountains - eg. there are fossilised trees still standing upright - none of the slowly falling down and gradually becoming coal stuff - these trees were suddenly deluged. The implications of catastrophism for the social engineers were scary - for the religion of irrationality and chaos would emerge - unless the science of chaos could be alowed to emerge. Champions might suddenly emerge - hope might spring up etc etc What was needed was the paradigm of maintained steady control - so if there was to be chaos it had to have a scientific basis - then [perhaps buried] Enter the santa fe institute where research by Kauffman, langton on the spontaneous organisation of complex systems into structures - soon illustrated that Chaos played an important role - ie. the mathematics of chaos - in structure. Next came the paris expose of Newton - and his theory of planetary motion bit the dust when it was found that the planets didn't proceed in an orderly manner - they only APPEARED to do so - and the closer we looked the more chaos mathematics explained. The Cambridge Biologist Brain Goodwin discovered the taboo, the refutation of smooth talking pope of the rational - mr memetics - Richard Dawkins - Dawkins went to great lengths to ossify Darwin in concrete with his Survical of Fit thoughts and his book on the gradual evolution of the complexities of the eye over billions of years - What blew Dawkins out of the water was that Goodwin could demonstrate that the eye could emerge quickly to fulfill the need and disappear again when there was none - and Goodwin predicted that an eye may evolve and devolve several times over the course of evolution. Yes there was structure, yes there were mechanics but the descriptions were never simple - never as simple as darwin or Newton had made out. There were Contextual factors and other processes to be taken into account. This idea of context does not fit at all into the world view of scientific reductionism, so the great new sciences that came from Santa Fe went virtually anonymous by the end of the 1990's - the bandwagon of stock market predictions and genius grants ended. To all intents and purposes - the ingredients of the cosmos could spontaneously organise themselves into progressively more complex systems. That is mechanistic, but the mechanism is the natural law called Emergence - ie. masons - ordo ab chaos. It is old knowledge is the truth. They feed us the terror of darwins predator instead - the ideologies of dominance. Not for us the simple idea that the old order can overturn in a flash - no hope for us. Chaos mathematics, emergence, Structure, demergence/entropy - one big happy equilibrium - divine providence - a playground This does not preclude God either - nor exclude dualism, polarity, good and evil, nor does it disprove soul or Christ - but provides a material basis of the Universe in which our souls have incarnated.

[CTRL] Drug Trafficking By NSC
http://www.zolatimes.com/V5.28/cr_drugs1.html Costa Rica, Past Present Part 1: Drug Trafficking by the US National Security Council by Zola We call it the Ollie North International Airport. I have flown in and out of it many times. It lies out on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, near Nosara. It is a tiny airstrip for small planes, originally constructed for training (touch-and-go exercises) and for refueling. It is one of about eight airstrips built by Oliver North in Costa Rica for support of the Contras. And, as it turns out, it is one of the reasons that three individuals working for the US National Security Council, along with the US ambassador and the local CIA Chief of Station, were barred from Costa Rica for narcotrafficking. I had heard rumors about this on the Internet. One hears many things on the Internet—some of them true, some of them not. It is not always easy to get the facts. This has been the case especially since a "CIA-drugs" research industry emerged. Some of the kingpins of this research group are into exposure for the same reason that Elmer Gantry was into religion, or that Christine Keeler was into politicians: namely, it's way to make a buck. So they deliver fire and brimstone, and then pass the collection plate. They aren't very concerned whether their information is accurate—only that it supports their thesis. So I went digging for verification, and found it in the archives of the Costa Rican legislative assembly (Asamblea Legislativa). A special commission had been appointed to investigate the facts concerning narcotrafficking in Costa Rica (Comision Especial Nombrada para Investigar los Hechos Denunciados Sobre Narcotrafico), and it issued its final report on July 20, 1989 in San Jose ( Expediente 10.684, Informe Final, San Jose, 20 de Julio de 1989). It wasn't easy to find: they had buried the report down here also. Recommendation number 13 reads: 13. Que el señor Lewis Tambs, Joe Fernández, Oliver North, John M. Poindexter, Richard V. Secord, no se les permita la entrada al pais. [p. 74] Here we have three individuals associated with the US National Security Council—John M. Poindexter, Oliver North, Richard V. Secord—as well as the local CIA Chief of Station, Joe Fernández, and the US Ambassador to Costa Rica, Lewis Tambs, all barred from the country. Fifty members of the legislative assembly voted to approve the report with its recommendations. Two members did not. One of these two—Leonel Salazar Villalobos—is now himself in prison for narcotrafficking. General Manuel Noriega of Panama is important to the story. Noriega was the key to drug transport through Central America during the early to mid-1980s. My story, however, will not stop with the Costa Rican legislative report of July 1989. Rather, it will be brought forward to the present day, to the year 2001. For there is a new drug kingpin in town, a new "General Noriega," a new man who is key to the Central American transport and distribution zone. In due course in this series I will name him, and I will back up my assertions with documented facts. But first things first. Let's begin in the 1980s when Oliver North opened up a narcotrafficking pipeline through Costa Rica. The pipeline is still here, and Ollie North is still persona non grata. The Southern Front, Noriega, and North It is a simple fact of geography that Costa Rica lies between Panama, to the south, and Nicaragua, to the north. The "Southern Front" were the Contras under Eden Pastora on the southern border of Nicaragua—in the northern frontier of Costa Rica. North's objective was to supply them with arms, food, fuel, and whatever else was needed to fight the Sandanistas. In this respect, there was already remnants of a network in place—one that had been used previously to supply the Sandanistas themselves against the Nicaraguan government of Somoza. This group was already experienced in dealing with the logistic problems. A key person used by North in organizing the Southern Front was John Floyd Hull Clark ("John Hull"), who had lived in Costa Rica for about 20 years at the time he applied for Costa Rican citizenship in 1983. Sometime in the early 1980s he became a CIA asset—convenient, since he owned a lot of property in the north of Costa Rica. Since CIA funds for the Contras had been largely cut off, CIA Director Bill Casey had given North access to many of the CIA's Central American assets. Now, the legislative report and the accompanying documents are specific in many details, but are weak in others. I have supplemented them with various firsthand sources—Costa Rican and others. These sources generally express respect for Richard Secord, contempt for Oliver North, and say Hull "was not a bad guy." For whatever reason, Hull had become a tool of the CIA and did what he was told. For this, he suffered. Drug flights (by contrast to others involving munitions and

[CTRL] Condit The Hells Angels?
http://chblue.com/Article.asp?ID=1935 Cops want to know more about Condit's ties to Hells Angels Saturday, July 07, 2001 By Timothy J. Burger and Helen Kennedy New York Daily News Investigators searching for missing intern Chandra Levy are probing Rep. Gary Condit’s ties to the Hells Angels motorcycle gang. Condit, who rides a Harley when he is home in his northern California district, has close ties to members of the gang, said sources close to the Levy family investigation. “These are bad guys to be involved with,” said one investigator. Condit’s former longtime aide, Vince Flammini, taught the congressman to ride and introduced him to Hells Angels’ leaders, investigators said. Flammini, 62, has told reporters Condit could be emotionally harsh but “he would never hurt a fly.” Anne Marie Smith, 39, a flight attendant who says she had a 10-month affair with Condit that ended in May, said she remembers the congressman once telling her he was going to attend an upcoming Hells Angels party. “He told me he had to keep it secret from his brother because it was a birthday party for a cop killer,” Smith told the Daily News. Condit’s brother, Burl, is a sergeant with the Modesto police. Meanwhile, The Daily News has learned that on April 29, Levy left a message on her aunt’s machine saying, “I have big news.” “She didn’t sound downtrodden. She sounded like she had something exciting to tell,” said a source close to the family. Investigators working for the Levy family believe it’s a major clue and are looking at the possibility she could have been killed to silence her about something she had learned. “The big news might be what got her killed. Maybe she found out something,” said the source close to the Levy family. Investigators are also considering the possibility that Levy, 24, could have been pregnant, though no testing kit was found in her apartment. Condit, 53, told police he last spoke to Levy April 29. She vanished May 1. In other developments: The Levy family private investigators have located a security tape showing Levy buying juice and chatting cheerily with a clerk at a 7-Eleven in Arlington, Va., on April 29. Investigators are interested because Levy, who does not have a car, was far from home. Condit’s wife, Carolyn, was interviewed by the FBI in Northern Virginia. She was accompanied by her husband’s lawyer, Abbe Lowell. Police had been trying to schedule an interview with Carolyn Condit for more than a week to ask about her visit to Washington in late April. She was with her husband when Levy was calling him repeatedly as she prepared to leave town. Cops wanted to know if she had any contact with Levy and if she could verify her husband’s whereabouts. It was unclear why the interview took place in Washington and not in California. Condit’s lawyer released a statement explaining Condit couldn’t make his hometown Fourth of July parade because he was flying to Washington with his wife for the interview. He also blasted press “efforts to dissect and mischaracterize his and his family’s private lives” and said Condit would maintain his media silence. “Unlike some, Congressman Condit remains singularly focused on what is and remains the central mission at this time—locating Chandra Levy,” the statement said. “The media risks losing its focus with what has been a recent and seemingly unbounded effort to expose highly personal and private Condit family matters.” Washington Police Chief Charles Ramsey told reporters Thursday that suicide is close to being discounted. “As time goes on, the possibility of suicide becomes more and more remote, because you would find the remains,” Ramsey said. “You can’t kill yourself and then bury yourself.” Ramsey repeatedly stressed that Condit is not a suspect and only one of a hundred people interviewed. He became irritated when reporters asked if allegations that Condit urged his flight attendant mistress to lie to the FBI would give cops probable cause to search his apartment. “That’s a heckuva leap. I’m not trying to find a flight attendant. I’m trying to find Chandra Levy,” he said. “We’re not the sex police.”
[CTRL] Rove, FORTUNATE SON, Bush Cocaine
http://www.softskull.com/catalog/hatfield/fs_karlrove.html George W. Bush's Brain? How Karl T. Rove Used Fortunate Son to Stick George W. Bush in the White House by Sander Hicks All his life, George W. Bush has been allowed to cheat to get by. You see this in Fortunate Son, starting with the special favors Bush enjoyed in his youth, such as the family connections that shielded him from the ugly realities of Vietnam. The same pattern continued into his adulthood, when the careful, strategic handling of his advisors won him the Presidency. In 1989, Bush himself said "You know I could run for governor, but I’m basically a media creation…I’ve never done anything." Bush campaigned in the 1994 race for governor of Texas solely on his record as a "businessman." The sharp-tongued, popular incumbent Governor Ann Richards asked why all the businesses Bush had run since 1979 lost a combined $371 million. Bush was instantly put on television to plead with her to cease "these personal attacks." He eventually won this race with manipulative strategies, heavy spending and scare-tactic TV ads. In office, Governor Bush relaxed environmental controls to stick Texas with one of the highest concentrations of air and water pollution in the country, allowed 134 executions, and allowed the gulf between rich and poor to grow out of control. Bush limited access to abortions and legalized concealed handguns despite protests from law enforcement. He even refused to pass hate crimes laws after the murder of James Byrd by three racists, saying that legislation was unnecessary, because "all crimes are hate crimes." Bush spent his youth in a haze of debauchery, and while that’s understandable for one whose life is so empty, what Soft Skull finds exceptional is his lack of accountability. It is commonly believed that Bush was busted for cocaine possession in 1972, but records of the arrest were expunged as a special family favor. Once again, Bush didn’t have to play by the rules, he was given special treatment over the rest of us commoners. On the campaign trail for President, Bush couldn’t seem to keep quiet about his drug past. In August 1999, with his handlers out of town ghost-writing his "autobiography," he blurted out at a press conference that he hadn’t done drugs since 1974. The media crowed at the spectacle–another deer in the headlights, another conservative politician who puts his foot in his mouth on camera. Now imagine you’re Bush’s senior adviser, Karl T. Rove. It’s August 1999, 18 months from the election. This means that in just 18 months, you have to transform the public image of a right-wing incompetent into a "man of the people." This was not a small job: Karl Rove and company had to take an unproven, spoiled rich kid, and create a competent, eloquent, likable man. Rove is no angel. In the 70’s, he had been investigated by the Republican National Committee for teaching seminars on political "dirty tricks" to college students, and, like George W. Bush, trained under cagey campaign strategist Lee Atwater.1 But after managing Bush’s successful campaigns for governor in Texas, Rove was set to reinvent Bush as Predidential timber. In January of 2000, a year away from the election, The New York Times’ Frank Bruni reported on Rove’s passionate, almost homoerotic, dedication to Bush: "When Mr. Rove talks about Mr. Bush, he radiates a regard for him that goes beyond professional obligation or selfish investment in Mr. Bush’s fortune. It is more like a crush, both platonic and political, and it underscores the oddness of this particular couple: the pale, intense, bookish Mr. Rove and the ruddy, easygoing, folksy Mr. Bush."2 After the "election," Rove was chided for taking maximum credit for placing Bush in the White House. The New York Times reported "He committed a subtle breach of Bush-world etiquette at an election post-mortem at the University of Pennsylvania last weekend, when he took responsibility–and credit–for many of the candidate’s moves."3 As David Shribman asked, in the Boston Globe magazine in July of 2000, "Is there a place where George W. Bush ends and Karl Rove begins? Are you the wizard behind the curtain of George W.? Are you George W. Bush’s brain?"4 Hatfield was the Stalking Horse When Bush blurted out that he hadn’t done drugs since 1974, Rove probably realized he needed to find a way to remove discussion of Bush’s drug past from the national discussion so thoroughly that even Bush himself couldn’t bring it up again. Right around August 1999, when Bush made that blunder at his solo news conference, J. H. Hatfield’s biography Fortunate Son was in its final stages with its original publisher, St. Martin’s Press. In the late 1980’s in Texas, Hatfield had made the acquaintance of Clay Johnson, Bush’s lifelong friend and advisor to Bush as Governor. An author of several nonfiction books, Hatfield decided that his personal

-Caveat Lector- Closer to the mark as to the true state of affairs in the whole drug issue. When we see just how involved the intelligence agencies in this country are in the trafficking and sale of drugs it will reveal the extent to which the depravity and lopsidedness of those in positions of power has really extended.

BR BRSkimming off money that the CIA intended for use in Peru's anti-drug BRtrafficking efforts, Montesinos set up a major arms deal in the Middle East BRthat funnelled 10,000 AK47 rifles to left-wing FARC guerrillas in Colombia, BRthereby fomenting the very uprising that America has pledged $1.3bn to stamp BRout. BR BRFARC has transformed itself from a Marxist insurgency group trying to seize BRpower in Colombia into a quasi-drug cartel, making millions from the drug BRsmugglers who operate under their protection. BR BRBill Clinton's administration decided it was worth investing spectacular BRamounts of cash to help the Colombian government stamp out the guerrillas and BRthus leave the smugglers unprotected. BR BRAt first Vladimiro Montesinos looked as if he could be a significant asset in BRthe US fight against both Communism and the drugs trade. In the mid-1970s, BRwhile an officer in the Peruvian army, he came to the US to show the CIA BRevidence of Soviet arms deals with Peru. It was enough to get him on the BRagency's payroll. BR BRMontesinos rose to become spymaster for the controversial former president of BRPeru, Albert Fujimori, himself now being sought on suspicion of human rights BRviolations. BR BRThroughout the 1990s the flow of money became a torrent, the stated intention BRbeing to help Peru fight the trans-Andean drug trade. BR BRBut after years of little or no oversight over how the cash was spent, BRMontesinos started turning the money to his own ends. He was, according to BRprosecutors, also guilty of flagrant human rights violations against BRpolitical opponents, including murder. BR BRThe CIA was well aware of his actions but did little to rein Montesinos in. BRBut the CIA had not banked on Montesinos' double-dealing. According to BRPeruvian prosecutors he was also taking protection money from drug BRtraffickers, which joined a stream of corrupt cash that amassed him a fortune BRclose to $264m. BR BRThe CIA decided to call a halt when the FARC arms deal demonstrated BRconclusively that he had gone too far. BR BRMontesinos became a fugitive in October 2000 and was captured at the end of BRlast month by Venezuelan agents in Caracas. BR BRToday Montesinos is on hunger strike in protest against being held in the BRsame jail, one he actually designed, as many of his former enemies. BR BRIf found guilty, the ex-spymaster faces the rest of his life in prison. BR BRThat at least would ease the CIA's embarrassment.

[CTRL] Haiti's Successful War on Drugs
-Caveat Lector- Haiti leads the way on how to wage a war on drugs - when local citizens steal the drugs. July 9, 2001 THE WORLD http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/front/la-56365jul09.story?coll=la%2Dheadlines%2Dfrontpage Chaos in Haiti Repels Even Drug Dealers Crime: Crumbling roads and populist cocaine grabs erode the nation's role as a transport hub. MARK FINEMAN, TIMES STAFF WRITER GRAND-GOAVE, Haiti -- It was just over a year ago that a peasant mob in this poor coastal town ripped off a 4-ton shipment of Colombian cocaine--a haul worth $20 million even at local prices. Fishermen became instant millionaires. Farmers showered in celebratory beers at local nightclubs. And the sudden largess spawned a host of new social ills. But the populist drug seizure here in a nation that had become a major transshipment hub for Colombian cocaine headed to the U.S. also pointed to the latest--and perhaps strangest--trend in Caribbean drug smuggling. After a year of mass rip-offs, crashed drug planes and trashed getaway cars, not even the drug dealers, it seems, can tolerate desperate and dilapidated Haiti. So dramatic is the decrease of the drug flow through this country of 8 million that the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and State Department have taken notice. In its most recent narcotics report, the State Department concluded that Haiti accounted for just 8% of all cocaine reaching the U.S. last year, down from 13% in 1999. But in Haiti's government and law enforcement circles, there's little cause for pride. Little of this [decrease] is attributable to the efforts of the Haitian government, the State Department report says, adding that Haiti must still be regarded as a major transshipment point for South American narcotics. Rather, it cites such incidents as the grass-roots drug rip-off in Grand-Goave to explain one of the more unusual--and inadvertent--successes in the global drug war. The report notes that intensified U.S. Customs Service searches of Haitian freighters in the Miami River, which netted about 3 tons of cocaine last year, may have played a role in the decline. And it partly credits tough new anti-drug laws recently passed by Haiti's National Assembly. But it adds: The largest factor [in the decrease] may be the difficulties traffickers experienced in moving drugs through Haiti because of poor infrastructure or the seizure of drugs by rival traffickers or other criminals. For example, airdrops of large shipments dropped significantly in 2000, particularly after several aircraft crashed trying to land on makeshift runways, the department said. 'Manna From Heaven' for Poor Villages Another factor is the increasingly brazen and impoverished citizens, for whom cocaine has in recent years become the principal business in some coastal towns. Cocaine is widely known as manna from heaven throughout Haiti, as it has become a source of income for entire towns, the report says. There was the case last year of a drug plane that landed in Port-de-Paix on Haiti's north coast. Traffickers met the plane, shot a policeman and packed their SUV with the cocaine. But as the traffickers sped off on the town's rutted and neglected streets, the vehicle flipped. Within minutes, hundreds of residents set upon it and stripped it of the drugs. Another drug plane was burned to a crisp in Leogane, 25 miles west of the capital, Port-au-Prince, by villagers who were outraged when the traffickers refused to share part of the shipment with them. But Grand-Goave, also outside the capital, is a model of the phenomenon. What's more, the populist cocaine seizure on June 9, 2000, has fundamentally changed the town by fostering social evils that were compounded when the drug flows went dry, local officials, radio correspondents and police officers say. Grand-Goave, like most of the Haitian countryside, has always been poor. It has no hospital, park or professional school, and it runs solely on a $2,700 monthly federal handout for municipal salaries. With unemployment approaching 100%, the town's people have survived on subsistence farming and money sent from relatives in the U.S. and Canada. Morally, however, it had been a God-fearing town where petty crime was minimal and major crimes such as murder were largely motivated by politics. That all changed a year ago, residents say, the day two launches sped ashore and nearly the entire town turned out to meet them. Grand-Goave's free-for-all began about 5:30 a.m. that day, moments after 8,400 pounds of cocaine landed on the beach. Local police had been tipped off to the shipment; some were probably hired protection for the traffickers, said one local officer who asked not to be named. Soon the police were overwhelmed by thousands of townspeople, most of them armed with machetes or homemade guns. Outnumbered, the police ultimately gave up and, witnesses said, even helped distribute the sacks. In the end, police

There's also the hidden costs of gasoline that must be considered, such as cost of the death, disease and distraction that the pollution it makes. Then there's the enormous expense of maintaining the military capacity to protect gasolines foreign sources. Then there's the people who suffer and die in the wars that are fought over oil.

Gary Condit for the first time told investigators he had a romantic relationship with Chandra Levy, a source familiar with the investigation said late Saturday. But police reiterated that Condit is not a suspect in the disappearance of the former federal intern. I'm very much inclined to believe that Condit had nothing to do with Chandra Levy's disappearance and probable demise. I believe that someone who knew about Condit's bimboes and who also had a score to settle with Condit (think: Clintonista's) made Chandra Levy disappear knowing full well that Condit would be embarrassed, discredited, and ultimately a murder suspect.

If not, did Condit at anytime vote for any measure that enabled the impeachment process to proceed?

[CTRL] Fwd: [GATA] As GATA closes in, Treasury reclassifies West Point gold again
'MIDAS' COMMENTARY FOR JULY 9, 2001 By BILL MURPHY www.LeMetropoleCafe.com July 9, 2001 Gold $266.50, up 80 cents Silver $4.22, down 3 cents The gold market is comatose as the Gold Cartel has gold right back at its official price of $266. Meanwhile, they have to be frantically trying to figure out how they are going to get out of their massive short positions. Time is NOT on their side (see below). The big story of the day is one you will not hear spoken about in mainstream gold commentary. For weeks now Mike Bolser and I have been clamoring that U.S. Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill should explain why 1,700 tonnes of the Treasury's gold bullion reserve were reclassified as custodial gold' in August last year. The reason could not be more obvious. The word custodial implies taking care of something for someone else (as for the Bundesbank) as opposed to owning it yourself. That can be the only explanation for the reclassification. Some clerk was only doing his job correctly and told it as it was; that is, told the truth. U.S. Reps. Ron Paul (Texas) and John Larson (Connecticut), as well as Sens. Joseph Lieberman (Connecticut) and Wayne Allard (Colorado) have posed the same question to the treasury secretary, and so far he has failed to answer them, as well as many others. Lo and behold, look what we have here today -- a posting at www.USAGold.com by Elwood: * * * http://www.fms.treas.gov/gold/index.html Looks like all the gold at the mint locations is now called either deep storage or working stock. It's labeled Treasury-owned gold at the bottom of the report. From the notes at the bottom of May's report: Deep Storage Gold -- formerly called Gold Bullion Reserve or Custodial Gold Bullion Reserve. This gold is owned by the U.S. Government and held for safekeeping by the U.S. Mint at the locations listed. Working Stock -- formerly listed as specific coins and blanks or called PEF Gold. This is the portion of U.S. Government-owned gold that is used as the operating inventory for minting gold coins. Working stock includes bars, blanks, and finished coins. The May report (updated July 2) is the first month of the new classification. * * * Is this the Treasury's response to a most serious question posed by very serious people -- that U.S. Government gold is now classified Deep Storage Gold so that they have an answer to any sort of inquiries? Does this mean that there are no new questions to be asked in the future because of the pathetic Treasury's definition of 'is' obfuscation? This is one sick government we have. God help us all. What the heck is REALLY going on in Washington? What kind of systemic risk is close at hand? What has happened and is happening to America's gold? To what extent will the U.S. Government go to hide the truth from its citizens and members of Congress? What kind of depravity is ruling the roost in our nation's capital? I never had sex with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. The Levy girl was just a friend. A gold swap with the Bundesbank? How silly! Deep Storage? That is comical. Who thought that one up? I guess we are going to need a Deep Throat to find out about the U.S. gold in Deep Storage. One thing for sure. WE GOT THEM. GATA has stirred up a hornet's nest on this one. There can be no other explanation for such a ridiculous classification of the gold of American citizens. Clearly they have made the change in classification because they can't answer the questions posed to them. So they changed the classification. What more does anyone need to understand that the gold market is under siege with the United States acting like the world's gold czar? Yes, the gold price is manipulated and something is very wrong in the gold market -- but, worse, something is even wronger with our government. A certain faction of Washington has LOST IT -- and lost the ideals our country was founded on. I am still waiting on confirmation that Newmont has closed its giant Gold Quarry mine in Nevada. If that is the case, it means that the two premier U.S. gold producers have closed their flagship mines within seven months. First, the Homestake mine in South Dakota and now this. While this would be a blow to Newmont shareholders, it will be a very positive development for the gold price -- mostly because it signifies the sharp drop in gold production that is upon us. Gold producers are hitting the wall all over the world. The Gold Cartel has created the most untenable of situations. The gold loans are 10,000 to 16,000 tonnes, the gold derivatives are massive and hover above the market like a neutron bomb, the U.S. Government is trying to cover up what it has done (always a no-no), and now gold supply is starting to drop off a cliff while gold demand remains strong. Murphy's Law is setting upon the Gold Cartel. The Manufacturers Association is moaning to the media that the strong dollar is hurting them and the U.S. economy. The pressure to bring the dollar down is going to
