Let Me Tell You About My Family
By Chuck Baldwin
December 4, 2001


Tomorrow my wife and I will help celebrate our oldest son's 25th birthday. A
few weeks ago, we celebrated our daughter's 27th birthday, and shortly
before that, we celebrated our youngest son's 22nd birthday. I have often
said that I would rather be a successful husband and father than a
successful anything else. If I accomplish nothing more in life, I consider
my life to be a huge success because of the outstanding family God has given
to me.

Our oldest son is in the early days of owning his own plumbing business. He
and his wife named their little boy after yours truly. They were both
virgins when they married. They are a dedicated Christian couple serving the
Lord together in our church. They do not drink, smoke, or use drugs. They
have never been in trouble with the law. They love God, each other, and
their parents.

Our only daughter is the apple of my eye. Her husband is in the early days
of owning his own engineering company. They have three children. My daughter
and her husband are the youth leaders in our church. They, too, were virgins
when they married and do not drink, smoke, or use drugs. They have never
been in trouble with the law, and they demonstrate the highest degree of
Christian dedication.

Our youngest son is in his first year of law school. He is still single.
Like his brother and sister, he is a faithful, dedicated Christian that has
kept himself morally clean and does not use alcohol, tobacco or drugs. He
loves God and our family.

If it sounds like I am bragging, I am - on Jesus! I recognize that every
good gift comes from above, and that includes this most precious of all
gifts: a Christian home.

At the same time, many people who know my family have asked me to share the
principles we used in rearing our children. (It is amusing that so many
child experts have never successfully raised children of their own.)

I begin by saying that raising children is hard work. The responsibility of
raising children cannot be passed off to a school  (public or private) or to
any other institution, including government. I am sorry to have to tell
Hillary that it takes a mom and dad, not a village, to raise a family!

Parenting must be given the priority it deserves. Parenting is not a hobby;
it is a full time occupation. One cannot ignore his or her children and
expect them to turn out well. Beyond that, preoccupation with materialism
and greed will also ruin a child. Wallowing in moral and spiritual poverty
while surrounded by material and financial prosperity is the sad story of
many American families, I am afraid. It takes time and effort to instill the
fundamental principles of character and conviction into our children. There
is no short cut, no easy way to raise honest, considerate children.

Child rearing takes love, instruction, and discipline. All three ingredients
are equally important. Children must be loved. They must be taught, and they
must be disciplined. I would even argue, that if children are not taught
right from wrong and are not properly disciplined, they are not loved. Any
parent who truly loves his or her child will be ready and able to teach and
discipline them.

To be sure, many parents have done everything right, and their children have
still turned out wrong. I do not understand it, but I know it is true. I am
also aware that there are examples of parents who did it all wrong and their
kids turned out right. Only the grace and sovereignty of God can explain
some things.

Overall, however, we have the kind of children we raise. It seems to me that
a bundle of love and a big hickory switch would solve most of America's
problems. At least it solved a bunch of mine.

Israeli Gunships Strike Arafat's HQ


Updated: Tue, Dec 04 5:07 AM EST


By HADEEL WAHDAN, Associated Press Writer
RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) - Israeli helicopter gunships attacked Yasser
Arafat's headquarters in this West Bank town on Tuesday and three missiles
hit just a few yards from the Palestinian leader's office, witnesses said.
Arafat was present during the attack, but no one was injured, officials said.

Palestinian officials fled the compound in panic. Palestinian officials said
Arafat did not leave the building.

The air strike came just hours after Israel's Cabinet branded Arafat's
government a supporter of terrorism and singled out two organizations
affiliated with the Palestinian leader as terror groups - the Tanzim militia
and Force 17, a branch of the Palestinian security forces.



Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has declared an all-out war on terror
in response to suicide bombings and shooting attacks by Islamic militants on
Israelis that killed 26 and wounded nearly 200 during the weekend.

Israel's reprisals were aimed at symbols of Arafat's rule. They effectively
grounded the Palestinian leader and confined him to Ramallah.

On Monday, Israeli missiles damaged Arafat's three helicopters parked near
his seaside office in the Gaza Strip. Early Tuesday, Israeli troops tore up
the landing strip at Gaza International Airport.

An adviser to Sharon, speaking just before Tuesday's attack on the Arafat,
said Israel was not targeting Arafat directly.

We have stated publicly that we do not intend to harm him personally, said
the adviser, Danny Ayalon. But since he is responsible for the wave of
terrorism which has been going on, we had to hit something close to him
personally.

The Cabinet declaration means that Israeli officials can only meet with
members of the Palestinian Authority for the purpose of obtaining a
cease-fire, Ayalon said.

Another adviser, Raanan Gissin, said the declaration was intended to step up
pressure on Arafat to crack down hard on militants and prevent attacks on
Israel, but was not an opening signal for a major assault on the Palestinian
Authority. We'll use all the measures at our disposal with greater
frequency, with more impunity, to put pressure on Arafat to comply, Gissin
said.

Ministers from the moderate Labor party left the Cabinet meeting in protest
before the vote was taken. Transport Minister Ephraim Sneh hinted that Labor
might quit the coalition, saying that the unity government is important to
us ... but not at every price. Labor favors rehabilitating ties with Arafat.

Israel's retaliation began Monday afternoon when helicopter gunships
destroyed or damaged three helicopters in Gaza City. F-16 warplanes also
bombed Palestinian security installations in the West Bank town of Jenin.

Early Tuesday, Israeli troops tore up the landing strip of Gaza International
Airport, a symbol of fledgling Palestinian sovereignty. The airport had been
a vital link between the Palestinians and the rest of the world since it was
opened in 1998. It was closed to regular traffic for most of the past 14
months of fighting, but Arafat had been able to use it for his frequent trips
abroad.

With his helicopters and the airport unusable, it appeared that Arafat was
confined to Ramallah. There is no land route since Israel has been blockading
all West Bank towns since the weekend suicide bombings.

Overnight, Israel sent tanks into parts of Ramallah and the West Bank town of
Nablus. In Ramallah, two tanks came within about 800 yards of Arafat's
compound in town.

It was not immediately clear whether the Palestinian Authority would continue
rounding up suspected Islamic militants following the Israeli strikes. In a
sweep that began Sunday night, Palestinian security forces had detained about
130 members of the militant Hamas and Islamic Jihad groups. Arafat also
declared a state of emergency.

Palestinian official Tayeb Abdel Rahim warned that the Israeli attacks will
push some of us to reassess this position. Jibril Rajoub, the Palestinian
security chief in the West Bank, warned the decisions of the Israeli Cabinet
will push us and the situation into more violence and bloodshed.

In overnight violence, an armed Palestinian was killed and another wounded in
a clash with Israeli troops on the outskirts of Nablus, Palestinian officials
said. Both men belonged to Arafat's Fatah group, the officials said.

Sharon charged in a televised speech late Monday that Arafat is responsible
for everything that is happening here and has chosen the path of terror
(to) try to make diplomatic gains through murder.

However, Sharon stopped short of placing Arafat in Israel's gunsights or
threatening to bring down his regime, despite calls for just such steps by
some of Sharon's own Cabinet ministers.

The Palestinians asked Israel to

Israel Launches Air Strikes on W. Bank, Gaza


Updated: Tue, Dec 04 5:28 AM EST


By Mohammed Assadi
RAMALLAH, West Bank (Reuters) - Israel attacked Palestinian cities across the
West Bank and Gaza Strip on Tuesday, hitting just beyond Yasser Arafat's main
West Bank headquarters while he was inside, but he was not hurt.

The multiple bombardment by Israeli warplanes and helicopter gunships was the
largest simultaneous air strike at Palestinian targets since the start of a
14-month-old Palestinian uprising.

Hospital officials said at least two Palestinians were killed and dozens were
wounded in the Gaza Strip.



Israel launched the assault in response to one of the most devastating waves
of Palestinian suicide bombings inside the Jewish state in years.

Palestinians accused Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon of declaring war and
demanded immediate international intervention.

Sharon's government is exercising terror. They're destroying the peace
process and now they're destroying the Palestinian Authority. The world has
to stop this Sharon madness immediately, Palestinian cabinet minister Saeb
Erekat said.

Israeli missiles struck targets in Gaza City and the Khan Younis refugee camp
in southern Gaza, as well as in the West Bank towns of Ramallah, Tulkarm and
Qalqilya, witnesses and ofifcials said.

Arafat was in his Ramallah office when one missile slammed into a police
building just outside the compound, Erekat said.

Israel began a second day of air strikes after the government branded
Arafat's Palestinian Authority a supporter of terrorism. Troops entered three
Palestinian towns and took up positions close to Arafat's Ramallah office.

Israel has blamed Arafat for the Palestinian suicide bombings which killed 25
people and wounded about 200. The militant Islamic group Hamas claimed
responsibility for the weekend attacks.

Israel mainly directed its fire at security targets or symbols of Arafat's
power.

The surge of violence in the past week threatens to wreck a new U.S. Middle
East peace drive and has increased concern that 14 months of violence is
spiralling out of control.

In branding the Palestinian Authority a terror-supporting entity, the
Israeli government paved the way to harsher retaliation against Arafat,
although it announced no plans to topple the Palestinian president.

Palestinian Authority officials have denied supporting terror during their
uprising during which at least 743 Palestinians and 222 Israelis have been
killed.

HAMAS THREAT

The raids seemed designed to humiliate Arafat, limit his ability to move
about Palestinian areas and force him to crack down on militants.

The military wing of the Hamas movement vowed to avenge the air strikes and
overnight raids in into Gaza and the West Bank cities of Nablus and Ramallah.

When we swear to get revenge, we always fulfil our promise, the Izz el-Din
al-Qassam military wing said in a statement.

The Palestinian Authority responded to the Hamas statement by condemning the
threat of revenge and urging all groups to stop all actions that harm the
Palestinian cause.

The Israeli cabinet decision widened cracks in Sharon's broad coalition after
Labour Party ministers walked out of the late-night government meeting.
Foreign Minister Shimon Peres said his center-left Labour Party would
consider its future in the coalition.

On Monday, Israeli missiles slammed into Palestinian security targets in the
Gaza Strip and the West Bank city of Jenin, destroying three of Arafat's
helicopters on a landing pad and lightly wounding about 17 people in Gaza
City.

Tanks entered the West Bank city of Nablus, and troops took up position a few
hundred yards from the Palestinian Authority's headquarters in Ramallah as
Arafat worked inside, Palestinian security sources said.

They said Israeli troops shot dead a 26-year-old member of Arafat's Fatah
faction during an exchange of fire in Nablus and that armored bulldozers dug
up the runway of Gaza's international airport after entering Palestinian
territory.

WAR OF TERRORISM

In an address to the nation on Monday, Sharon blamed Arafat for what he said
was a war of terrorism and called him the biggest obstacle to peace.

The cabinet also branded the military wing of Arafat's Fatah faction and his
elite Force-17 unit as terrorist organizations.

Israel chose language similar to that used by the United States when it
targeted Afghanistan's Taliban rulers to flush out Saudi-born militant Osama
bin Laden, its prime suspect for the September 11 attacks on New York and
Washington.

Washington said on Monday Israel had the right to defend itself but added
that President Bush had not given Sharon a green light for military action.

Palestinian Information Minister Yasser Abed Rabbo dismissed the Israeli
government's declaration.

We believe the source of terrorism is the

Taliban Resistance Around Kandahar


Updated: Tue, Dec 04 5:06 AM EST


By KATHY GANNON, Associated Press Writer
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - Taliban fighters and members of Osama bin Laden's
al-Qaida militia were putting up fierce resistance against opposition Afghan
forces outside Kandahar on Tuesday as a relentless U.S. bombing campaign
continued, tribal leaders said.

Some Kandahar defenders fired missiles at U.S. warplanes, but made no hits,
U.S. officials said.

The city, the last bastion of the Taliban, remained in the hands of the
Islamic group, but a seesawing battle was raging for its airport, a few miles
away.



Abdul Jabbar, an Afghan tribal representative in Pakistan in contact with
commanders at the scene, described the fighting as close combat. They're
face-to-face, he said.

In Germany, four Afghan factions reached a breakthrough early Tuesday and
agreed on a framework for a post-Taliban administration. The United States
pressured the anti-Taliban northern alliance into dropping demands that
threatened to derail talks on Afghanistan's political future.

After days of clashes, Pashtun tribal fighters loyal to former Kandahar
governor Gul Agha battled their way into Kandahar airport from the south on
Tuesday despite fighting by pro-bin Laden Arab fighters, said one tribal
commander Mohammed Jalal Khan.

He said tribal warriors had captured half of the airport and were fighting
for control of the terminal building.

The group first reached the airport on Monday but was repelled by a
counterattack, according to Agha's brother, Bismillah. Details of casualties
were not available.

Other troops loyal to former deputy foreign minister Hamid Karzai were
advancing on Kandahar from the north. Some of Karzai's forces have said they
have met no resistance from the Taliban.

However, the Pakistan-based news service, Afghan Islamic Press, reported
heavy fighting between Taliban and Pashtun tribes in the Shahwali Kot
district, about 18 miles north of Kandahar overnight.

The Taliban claimed that they had repelled an assault by Karzai's troops and
had killed or wounded dozens of them. The Taliban also seized six vehicles
and arrested two opposition fighters. Bodies of anti-Taliban fighters are
scattered on the battleground, it said.

Reports from either side could not be verified as the Taliban have barred
western journalists from the region. Karzai is being touted as a possible
interim national leader in a proposed broad-based temporary administration
for Afghanistan.

Refugees who have made it east to the safety of neighboring Pakistan or north
to the Afghan capital, Kabul, have also reported fighting in several areas
near Kandahar.

Elsewhere, U.S. special forces are in Afghanistan's mountainous east working
with local people in the hunt for bin Laden and his top lieutenants.

The Pentagon believes they might be in the Tora Bora area in the White
Mountains south of Jalalabad, hiding in vast fortified cave and tunnel
networks used by Afghan guerrillas in the war against Soviet occupation in
the 1980s.

In Washington, Rear Adm. John Stufflebeem, the deputy director of operations
for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said U.S. personnel were identifying targets
for bombing rather than conducting cave-to-cave searches for bin Laden.

Airstrikes have been heavy in the remote and rugged region. However,
Stufflebeem denied reports that U.S. bombs had mistakenly pummeled villages
and wrongly killed civilians and anti-Taliban fighters near Tora Bora.

I don't have any reports of any villages being struck, Stufflebeem said.
The only reports I have are that all our weapons have been on target. I find
that a little bit suspect, that villages are being flattened.

Journalists who visited destroyed Kama Ado villages saw nine bomb craters.

The debris of thatch houses were spread over two hillsides along with
children's shoes, dead cows and sheep and the tail fin of a U.S. Mk83 bomb.
Local officials said scores were killed in three bombed villages.
Anti-Taliban officials in the area appealed to Americans to improve their
intelligence.

The other main focus of U.S. bombing in Afghanistan is Kandahar and
surrounding countryside, where bin Laden might also be sheltering.

Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar and other senior Taliban leaders, who are
believed to be holding out in Kandahar itself, have ordered their troops to
defend it to the death and not retreat as they did when other cities were
besieged by anti-Taliban forces.

Refugees who have left the city say that Arab members of al-Qaida are leading
Kandahar's defense.

Stufflebeem said U.S. pilots had reported seeing portable surface-to-air
weapons fired at them from around the city, which has come under intense
bombing. He said these might have been Stinger anti-aircraft missiles or
Russian versions of them.

 If You Liked Jerusalem Yesterday, You’ll Love The USA A Few Years From
 Now!

 On December 2, 2001 at about 6 PM Eastern Standard Time in the USA, a
 massive suicide bomb attack happened in Jerusalem. It was perpetrated by
 Islamic fundamentalists. Last count I heard showed about 150 Israelis
 injured and about 30 killed.

 If you like the thought of your wives, daughters, husbands, and sons
 being blown up or maimed while shopping or going to a population center
 for dinner – then you’re going to be very happy in the USA a few years
 from now – maybe sooner.

 As the USA continues to be seen as synonymous in the Moslem world with
 the mini-state called Israel, we continue to plant the seeds for massive
 retaliation against our own country – within our own borders.

 Leaving religion and the martyr “motivation” aside, how desperate does a
 young Arab man in his twenties have to be to go into a crowded shopping
 mall or pizzeria, and blow himself up in a guaranteed painful moment of
 death?

If you leave his religion and martyr motivation aside, you don't have an
evil fucking terrorist who targets civilians for mass murder.

But hey, I feel the poor guy's pain. He suffers so. Let's see now...h.
Are there more appropriate choices the poor bastard could make? Nah.

I'm all for these guys. They serve two purposes. First, the always kill off
a violent terorist. And if that wasn't great enough, they help Sharon do
what he was born to do. Move the Palestinians over the Jordan. Permanently.

 The idea that these misguided individuals are full of “mindless
 evil” is gross, lying propaganda by the dominant Jewish Lobby at its Big
 TV news media.

How could it possibly misguided evil if all they're killing are Jews. Don't
the  Jew  media get it?


 The insulting line pushed by the dominant Jewish Lobby in the USA is
 that hatred of America in the Moslem world has nothing to do with our
 slavish support of the mini-state of Israel. Some, such as fifth
 columnist Norman Podoretz of New York City, has gone so far as to state
 that it’s the other way around: the Moslems hate Israel due to its
 association with the USA! Ri – ii –gh — tt.

Actually, it's both. They hate Israel because they consider it colony of
Europe in the midst of Islamic splendor.


 The situation is desperate. The ZOG (Zionist Occupation Government) over
 America appears to be all powerful at this time.

ZOG is a neo-Nazi myth. Condit really likes neo-Nazi mythology. Has been
spouting it on this list for years.

 At least $5 billion a
 year in tribute (aid) is paid to the favorite cause (mini-state of
 Israel) of our conquerors. And much of that $5 billion is used to
 maintain the military/terror apparatus that persecutes Palestinians and
 their families to the point where desperate young Arabs, thinking they
 have nothing left to lose in this world – are willing to go into a
 public place and blow themselves up in the prime of their lives, just to
 take a few Israelis with them into the next world.

The Devil made them do it. They actually have NO responsibility in choosing
to kill civilians.


 Millions of Moslems are hoping that one of their factions gets their
 hands on biological weapons or nuclear weapons so that they can be used
 not only against Israel – but also used against the United States so
 that we will become less capable of financing their oppressors.

 There is a significant faction of Jews in Israel itself, and a minority
 contingent of Jewish leaders in this country, -- who also see the train
 wreck on the horizon, and who are pleading for sanity. But these voices
 don’t seem to have much power either in today’s world.

 The degree of brainwashing accomplished in the United States is shown by
 the fact that millions of Evangelical Christians and Catholics (left
 adrift by those occupying the Bishop’s chairs) – actually believe that
 it is a command of God to support the evil government of the mini-state
 of Israel – no matter what they do! By this perverted logic, Jesus
 Christ, in St. John’s Gospel, Chapter 8, circa v. 44 – became the First
 One to suffer the wrath of God for opposing the leaders of the Jewish
 people at that time. How ridiculous.

How ridiculous indeed. Everyone knows that Jeshua fought the collaborators
with Rome who were elite Jews doing business with the conquerors. He was
building a revolt against those who would destroy the country of the Jews.
For this the Romans killed him.

I always like to remind Christian Identity types that Jeshua/ Jesus was
ALWAYS a devout Jew and NEVER a Christian. A fact that even the NT couldn't
obfuscate.

  when they married and do not drink, smoke, or use drugs. They have never
  been in trouble with the law, and they demonstrate the highest degree of
  Christian dedication.
 
  Our youngest son is in his first year of law school. He is still single.
  Like his brother and sister, he is a faithful, dedicated Christian that
has
  kept himself morally clean and does not use alcohol, tobacco or drugs.
He
  loves God and our family.
 
  If it sounds like I am bragging, I am - on Jesus! I recognize that every
  good gift comes from above, and that includes this most precious of all
  gifts: a Christian home.
 
  At the same time, many people who know my family have asked me to share
the
  principles we used in rearing our children. (It is amusing that so many
  child experts have never successfully raised children of their own.)
 
  I begin by saying that raising children is hard work. The responsibility
of
  raising children cannot be passed off to a school  (public or private)
or to
  any other institution, including government. I am sorry to have to tell
  Hillary that it takes a mom and dad, not a village, to raise a family!
 
  Parenting must be given the priority it deserves. Parenting is not a
hobby;
  it is a full time occupation. One cannot ignore his or her children and
  expect them to turn out well. Beyond that, preoccupation with
materialism
  and greed will also ruin a child. Wallowing in moral and spiritual
poverty
  while surrounded by material and financial prosperity is the sad story
of
  many American families, I am afraid. It takes time and effort to instill
the
  fundamental principles of character and conviction into our children.
There
  is no short cut, no easy way to raise honest, considerate children.
 
  Child rearing takes love, instruction, and discipline. All three
ingredients
  are equally important. Children must be loved. They must be taught, and
they
  must be disciplined. I would even argue, that if children are not taught
  right from wrong and are not properly disciplined, they are not loved.
Any
  parent who truly loves his or her child will be ready and able to teach
and
  discipline them.
 
  To be sure, many parents have done everything right, and their children
have
  still turned out wrong. I do not understand it, but I know it is true. I
am
  also aware that there are examples of parents who did it all wrong and
their
  kids turned out right. Only the grace and sovereignty of God can explain
  some things.
 
  Overall, however, we have the kind of children we raise. It seems to me
that
  a bundle of love and a big hickory switch would solve most of America's
  problems. At least it solved a bunch of mine.

slamming a particular set of rural geeks who obviously have no clue about

If you think getting robbed at gun or knife point 'fun', be my

 and who in the world do you do it with  Boy oh boy.

You missed the whole point of my post; what I'm objecting to is Kamen et al
presuming to say they have a 'solution' to urban life, when they obviously
don't have a single clue as to what urban life is about.  To me it's just
all a marketing scam to sell his expensive toy.  When he gets around to
marketing a model for the general public, it is said they will cost around
$3000 -- that means it will be toy for rich yuppies, and will be used
perhaps in midtown Manhattan and its equivalent in other cities by rich
stockbrokers and investment bakers to get from the train station to work,
and then back at the rich, exclusive (and I DO mean 'exclusive' in it's
complete meaning) suburban bedroom communities they live in.  Regular
working-class folks who are living paycheck-to-paycheck, and especially
poor people, living in the city itself won't be able to afford it...

Kamen is touting it as a 'solution' to city life (which presumes a
'solution' is needed), when in fact when it comes to the general consumer
market one will mostly find it being used in rich suburban communities,
because those are the only people who will have both a need for it and the
funds to afford it.  Rich people in the city will have no need for it,
because the existing modes of transport are more than adequate for their
needs...

[CTRL] Bush law chief tried to drop habeas corpus

Bush law chief tried to drop habeas corpus

BY ROLAND WATSON

THE Bush Administration sought the power to suspend all suspects’ rights in
the most extreme example of its squeeze on civil liberties since September
11.
According to a draft of the anti-terrorism Bill which was published
yesterday, John Ashcroft, the Attorney-General, initially wanted to do away
with the fundamental legal tenet of habeas corpus for terrorist suspects.

Such a move would have allowed the authorities to hold suspects in secret and
indefinitely without charging them or producing them before a judge.

A secret first draft of Mr Ashcroft’s Bill included a section titled
“Suspension of the Writ of Habeas Corpus”. Its inclusion has astounded some
members of Congress. James Sensenbrenner, chairman of the House Judiciary
Committee, told Newsweek magazine: “That stuck out like a sore thumb. It was
the first thing I crossed out.”

Habeas corpus establishes the requirement on authorities to produce a suspect
before a judge at regular intervals so that the court, and therefore the
public, is satisfied that the detention is lawful.

The suspension of the writ did not make it into the final draft of Mr
Ashcroft’s Bill but it was seized on as another example of how far the
Administration is prepared to go.

Mr Ashcroft faces a grilling on Capitol Hill this week for other measures in
his postSeptember 11 crackdown, in which thousands of young Muslim men have
faced questioning and detention.

It was also revealed over the weekend that he wanted to renounce the
restrictions on the FBI from carrying out covert surveillance of religious
and political organisations. The proposal would override protections put in
place in the 1970s after the death of J. Edgar Hoover, the notoriously
hardline FBI Director, after the agency admitted that it had spent much of
the 1960s and early 1970s spying on Martin Luther King, the Black Panthers,
the Ku Klux Klan and other groups that it considered dangerous.

Latest polls show that the average American is broadly supportive of the
restrictions on civil liberties: 86 per cent believe that the Government has
not overstepped the mark.

Chris Matthews Urges President Not To Attack Iraq
Jews In Media, Government, Are Getting Ready To Roast Him

12/4/2001 1:23:12 PM
Chris Matthews / Jewish World Review

Commentary -- [Bill's note:  This article was published in Jewish World
Review today with the
comment, (HE'S LOST IT, FOLKS!).  I am hearing that we should see an all
out
attack on Mr Matthews by the Israeli Lobby soon.  Personally, I was amazed
to
see this.  I know he lives in Bethesda, and I have run across him once or
twice
at Barnes and Nobles (though I doubt he remembers me.)  Next time, I'll
have to
compliment him.]

Chris Matthews

If it were in my power to stop Dubya, I would

http://www.jewishworldreview.com -- LIKE other victors before him,
President
Bush is being tempted with greater glories. He should follow his triumph
in
Afghanistan, the trumpet sounds, with a more magnificent destruction of
Saddam
Hussein.


If it were in my power to stop him, I would.

To attack Iraq now would forfeit all that the American president has won
since
Sept. 11:

-- the backing of the United Nations;

-- the resurrection of the Big Three alliance of America, Britain and
Russia,
which won World War II;

-- the support of the Arab League; and

-- a 90-percent job approval from the American people.

It short, it would be nothing like the recent successes in Afghanistan.

To topple Saddam would take a half million to a million U.S. troops. It
would
require an occupying force capable of policing a civilian population that
would
be embittered by enormous casualties and a brutal bombing campaign.
Throughout
much of the world, and not just in the Middle East, it would cast our side
in
the role of the aggressor. Once again, it would recall Pearl Harbor, but
this
time with us in the role of the imperial Japanese.

I have given up trying to understand the thinking of those who agitate for
such
a wrong and tragic course against Saddam. They try and fail to blame him
for
Sept. 11. They try and fail to blame him for the anthrax letters. Yet,
their
inability to nail him only adds to their resolve. They want nothing less
than
an all-out war with Iraq. They want American troops to march into Baghdad,
take
control of the country, take out Saddam, and create a post-Saddam
government
favorable to the United States.

I can't tell where President Bush stands, whether with his Secretary of
State
Colin Powell or with the neo-conservatives inside and outside of his
administration who have long led their global wish-list with Saddam's
destruction. He called this week for Saddam to let U.N. Inspectors search
his
country for weapons of mass destruction. While Hussein defied him, this is
the
sort of posturing that's been going on for years.

Bush must certainly know the risks and costs of the all-out invasion the
anti-
Hussein hawks are demanding. It would put the United States on one side,
Iraq
and the rest of the world on the other. I doubt that even Tony Blair would
back
an attack on Baghdad.

What a calamitous end this would bring to the current anti-terrorist
campaign.
Instead of leading the world in a war of justice, we would be undoubtedly
scorned as an aggressor.

Here at home, the country would suffer a hard division.

The hunt for Osama bin Laden was, let's face it, an easy sell. His crowd
killed
our people. For that, he's going to die.

A war with Iraq would enjoy none of this same authenticity. We would be
attacking another country based on what it might do: use biological or
nuclear
weapons against another country.

That might work with a small group of us. It will not sell to the
majority.

I liked the way Harry Truman talked about us. He called us this country.
He
didn't mean the government in Washington, but the American people in those
splendid moments when we feel and act as one.

Right now is one of those moments. The Taliban is finished. Forces allied
with
the United States have grabbed Kabul and other major cities, while the
Marines
hunt cave-to-cave for Osama bin Laden.

Here at home, the country stands united. The terrorist network that
attacked us
on Sept. 11 is being decapitated.

Best of all, we can see a feasible future line of attack. To wipe out bin
Laden's Al-Qaeda network, America will now attack its other training
grounds in
Sudan, Somalia, Yemen and the Philippines. And along every step of the
way,
President Bush will retain the emphatic loyalty of the American people.
That 90-
percent job approval rating will stay at 90 percent.

This isn't complicated. Bush is doing what any red-blooded American leader
would do. He is bringing justice to those who killed our people in cold
blood.
That's something Americans have been ready to do since those early
Revolutionary days, when our flag showed a coiled snake and the words
Don't
Tread on Me.

What we shouldn't be ready to do is attack another country before it
attacks
us.

[CTRL] Saudi Paper: Mossad responsible for 9-11

Mossad behind Sep 11 attacks: Report
Updated on 2001-11-04 10:17:31

RIYADH, Nov 4 (PNS): A Saudi newspaper charged
Saturday that the Israeli secret service Mossad was
behind the September 11 terror attacks on New York and
Washington that killed thousands of people.

The mass-circulation Okaz said in an editorial that an
attack on such a scale could not have been carried out
with such accuracy and precision without the help of
parties inside the United States or with strong links
in Washington.

Six Israelis suspected of involvement in the attacks
on New York and Washington were arrested in the US, to
be later released. This confirms our strong suspicions
about the involvement of Israel's Mossad in the ugly
crime, Okaz said.

If we look carefully into this matter, we can find no
more influential sides in the US than the Israeli
Mossad agents, who have the ability to penetrate and
the capability to execute with high efficiency, the
daily said.

The paper said there was not sufficient evidence that
Arabs and Muslims were behind the attacks, but it did
not rule out the possibility that Mossad may have
recruited some Muslims to carry out the atrocities.

The main purpose of the conspiracy (attacks) is to
undermine ties between Arabs and Muslims, especially
moderate states, on the one hand and the US on the
other, and to turn the Muslim and Christian
civilizations against each other and incite hatred
between their adherents, it said.

The positive change in Washington's policy on Middle
East peace and its support for the establishment of an
independent Palestinian state confirms that the United
States has laid its hands on important leads
indicating a direct role by the Mossad in the attacks,
the paper asserted.

We don't think we will wait too long before (the
United States) reaches this result. This crime should
not pass without knowing its actual masterminds,
instead of focusing on 'stupid' tools, Okaz said.

[CTRL] A village is destroyed. And America says nothing happened

2001-12-04 Thread Gavin Phillips

-Caveat Lector-

Very good article below by a British journalist in
Afghanistan doing his job and reporting events that we
never hear about in The New York Times, Washington
Post or CNN etc. Civilian deaths are extremely high
and mounting. High tech weapons make little difference
if you bomb indiscriminately. In Vietnam we destroyed
the village in order to save it,  here we destroy the
village in the hopes of killing a few terrorists and
sacrifice dozens of innocents in the process.

A village is destroyed. And America says nothing
happened

War on terrorism

Richard Lloyd Parry in Kama Ado, Afghanistan
http://news.independent.co.uk/world/asia_china/story.jsp?story=108209
04 December 2001

The village where nothing happened is reached by a
steep climb at the end of a rattling three-hour drive
along a stony road. Until nothing happened here, early
on the morning of Saturday and again the following
day, it was a large village with a small graveyard,
but now that has been reversed. The cemetery on the
hill contains 40 freshly dug graves, unmarked and
identical. And the village of Kama Ado has ceased to
exist.

Many of the homes here are just deep conical craters
in the earth. The rest are cracked open, split like
crushed cardboard boxes. At the moment when nothing
happened, the villagers of Kama Ado were taking their
early morning meal, before sunrise and the beginning
of the Ramadan fast. And there in the rubble, dented
and ripped, are tokens of the simple daily lives they
led.

A contorted tin kettle, turned almost inside out by
the blast; a collection of charred cooking pots; and
the fragments of an old-fashioned pedal-operated
sewing machine. A split metal chest contains scraps of
children's clothes in cheap bright nylon.

In another room are the only riches that these people
had, six dead cows lying higgledy-piggledy and
distended by decay. And all this is very strange
because, on Saturday morning – when American B-52s
unloaded dozen of bombs that killed 115 men, women and
children – nothing happened.

We know this because the US Department of Defence told
us so. That evening, a Pentagon spokesman, questioned
about reports of civilian casualties in eastern
Afghanistan, explained that they were not true,
because the US is meticulous in selecting only
military targets associated with Osama bin Laden's
al-Qa'ida network. Subsequent Pentagon utterances on
the subject have wobbled somewhat, but there has been
no retraction of that initial decisive statement: It
just didn't happen.

So God knows what kind of a magic looking-glass I
stepped through yesterday, as I travelled out of the
city of Jalalabad along the desert road to Kama Ado.
From the moment I woke up, I was confronted with the
wreckage and innocent victims of high-altitude,
hi-tech, thousand-pound nothings.

The day began at the home of Haji Zaman Gamsharik, the
pro-Western anti-Taliban mujahedin commander who is
being discreetly supplied and funded by the US
government. The previous day I had followed him around
Jalalabad's mortuary, where seven mutilated corpses
were being laid out – mujahedin soldiers of Commander
Zaman who had been killed when US bombs hit the
government office in which they were sleeping. And
now, it had happened again.

There they were in the back of three pick-up trucks –
seven more bloody bodies of seven more mujahedin,
killed when the guesthouse in which they were sleeping
in the village of Landi Khiel was hit by bombs at
6.30am yesterday morning.

Commander Zaman is a proud, haughty man who fought in
the mountains for years against the Soviet Union, but
I've never seen him look so vulnerable. I sent them
there myself yesterday,'' was all he could say. I
sent them for security.''

But the commander provided us with mujahedin escorts
of our own, and we set off down the road to Landi
Khiel. We found the ruins of the office where the
first lot of soldiers had died, and the guesthouse
where they perished the previous morning. And there,
in the ruins of a family house, was a small fragment
of nothing. It was the tail-end of a compact bomb. It
bore the words Surface Attack Guided Missile AGM
114, and a serial number: 232687. It was half-buried
in the remains of the straw roof of a house where
three men had died: Fazil Karim, his brother Mahmor
Ghulab, and his nephew Hasiz Ullah. They were a
family, just ordinary people, said Haji Mohammed
Nazir, the local elder who was accompanying us. They
were not terrorists – the terrorists are in the
mountains, over there.''

So we drove on in the direction of the White
Mountains, where hundreds of al-Qa'ida members, and
perhaps even Osama bin Laden himself, are hiding in
the Tora Bora cave complex. A B-52 was high in the
sky; a billow of black smoke was visible, blooming out
of the valley. Something, surely, was happening over
there. And then we reached the ruins of

Re: [CTRL] WAS HITLER A ROTHSCHILD?

2001-12-04 Thread inri

-Caveat Lector-

  alois hitler was not rumored to have been the illegitimate son of
salomon
  mayor, but an illegitimate son of a jew named frankenberger! could
  frankenberger have been a rothschild? if i know david icke then i doubt
 it.

 Frankenberger?  Where did THAT name come from -- sounds like Rocky
 Horror...

it came from hitler's own investigation into his past. he sent an
investigator out to where his grandmother came from early on in his reign
and the result was that the investigator concluded that his father was the
result of an illegitimate encounter between someone named frankenberger
and his known grandmother, who was a servent in his household. icke had it
right almost to a tee - just replace the word rothschild with
frankenberger. modern historians, however, seem to agree that nobody can
really say for sure just who hitler's grandfather was but that may be
because hitler burned his grandmother's entire village to the ground in an
attempt to cover up his past. once again, though, many modern historians
will tell you that it was not to hide his jewish lineage as much as it was
to hide his family's history of mental insanity and mental retardation. his
sister was mentally challenged, one of his aunts [i think] commited suicide,
etc. remember that hitler also carried out massive sterilization programs
for the mentally unfit. it would actually be interesting to know whether
his own sister was a result of this or not.

 I thought Hitler was supposed to be the illegitimate offspring of a Jew
 named Shicklegruber...that was the big rumor all through the 30s and
WWII...

adolf hitler was the son of alois hitler and klara potzl, that much is known
for sure. alois hitler's mother was named maria anna schicklgruber and was
not jewish to my knowledge; but that's where you're getting this from.

in fact, alois hitler was known as alois shicklgruber for most of his life
because he had no father. it's thought that he changed his name in order to
gain some kind of inheritence and/or legitimacy [because the parish
refused to give it to him on his own merit] and not because johann nepomuk
hiedler, the man who raised him, was his true father. in fact, he waited
until both he and his mother's wife, johann's brother george, died before it
got done. yes, he was raised by his mother's husband's brother. sounds fishy
to me; my own conclusion is that his grandfather was this frankenberger.

but adolf hitler himself was not illegitimate.

Read where Caryle has 15 billion in interests; hey, this is small time.

Larry Silverman in 3 weeks or so made 7 billion dollars tax free - and
all that had to be done was for The Contractor to take out the Twin
Towers.

7 billion dollars and nobody seems to see possible conspiracy in this
effort big time?

This is tip of iceberg..at the feet of the Twin Towers lay the gold
equaling the gold of Solomon for all we know one truck already was
loaded that day already to go and BOOM - the buildings pancaked?

So when your insurance starts to double - hey they got to raise our

  December 4, 
  2001THE HOLDINGS 
  
  Enron Causes 5 Major Japanese Money Market Funds to 
  Plunge
  
  By KEN BELSON
  
  OKYO, Dec. 3  Shares of five major money market funds in Japan 
  have fallen below their face value because of extensive Enron (news/quote) 
  holdings, and the stocks of the companies that manage the funds plunged 
  today.
  The funds are managed by some of Japan's largest banks and brokerage 
  firms. Shares of UFJ Holdings, a banking giant, plunged nearly 10 percent, 
  and Nikko Securities, a leading brokerage firm, slid 3.4 percent. Each ran 
  major funds with big positions in Enron bonds. The weakness in financial 
  stocks helped push the Nikkei 225-stock index down 3.1 percent.
  The stampede left investors with few places to turn for steady returns 
  and low risk. In Japan, bank deposits pay almost no interest, so money 
  market funds have been popular with pension funds and other investors that 
  seek security with a reasonable return. In the United States, each share 
  of a money market fund generally carries a face value of $1 and an 
  implicit guarantee that the price will not fall below that amount, 
  preserving investors' principal; there have been a few exceptions.
  The losses by the Japanese money funds on Enron bonds led skittish 
  investors to withdraw cash last week, producing a net outflow for November 
  of some 3 trillion yen ($24.2 billion).
  An alternative for investors is Japanese government bonds, but they, 
  too, have given investors a scare in recent weeks. Major rating agencies 
  have lowered Japan's sovereign credit rating and said more cuts may be 
  coming. The country's debt rating is now near the point where banks that 
  hold government bonds will have to reserve capital against the chance of a 
  default.
  "This is a big headache for safe- haven investors," said Akio Yoshino, 
  head of investment research and chief economist at SG Yamaichi Asset 
  Management in Tokyo. "Investors are becoming very keen about avoiding 
  credit risk, so brokers who recommended these trusts will continue to see 
  a huge outflow," he said, referring to the funds.
  Managers of funds are hoping to shore up the confidence of investors by 
  disclosing their bondholdings and other assets more frequently  they are 
  now obliged to report on them only twice a year  and perhaps by 
  restricting themselves to issuers with credit ratings of A or better, 
  analysts said.
  If the money market funds stop buying debt of lower-rated companies, it 
  could be a serious blow to Japan's steel makers, retailers and other 
  highly indebted companies.

[CTRL] Bernard Lewis-British Svengali Behind Clash Of Civilizations

2001-12-04 Thread William Shannon
http://www.larouchepub.com/other/2001/2846b_lewis_profile.html



This article appears in the November 30, 2001 issue of Executive Intelligence Review. 

PROFILE: BERNARD LEWIS

British Svengali Behind
Clash Of Civilizations

by Scott Thompson and Jeffrey Steinberg 

On Nov. 19, octogenarian British Orientalist spook Bernard Lewis wrote an elaborate apologia for Osama bin Laden, a fervent pitch for the inevitability of the "Clash of Civilizations," in the pages of New Yorker magazine. Under the headline "The Revolt of Islam," Lewis lied that the emergence of "Islamic terrorism" in the recent decades, is completely consistent with mainstream Islam, which is committed to the subjugation of the infidels to Islamic law. He went through 14 pages of a fractured fairy-tale history of Islam, quoting bin Laden's Oct. 7, 2001 videotape, where the Saudi expatriate spoke of Islam's "humiliation and disgrace ... for more than 80 years"—a reference to the crushing of the Ottoman Empire by Britain and France in 1918. Lewis invented a tradition of jihad, "bequeathed to Muslims by the Prophet":

"In principle," Lewis explained, "the world was divided into two houses: the House of Islam, in which a Muslim government ruled and Muslim law prevailed, and the House of War, the rest of the world, still inhabited and, more important, ruled by infidels. Between the two, there was to be a perpetual state of war until the entire world either embraced Islam or submitted to the rule of the Muslim state." Among all the different "infidels" ruling the House of War, Lewis asserted, Christianity was singled out as "their primary rival in the struggle for world domination." Lewis cited slogans painted on the walls of Jerusalem's Dome of the Rock from the Seventh Century, assailing Christianity.

Lewis then claimed that the evolution of modern Islamic terrorism, specifically the al-Qaeda terrorism, had a long proud history within Islam, dating to the Assassins cult of the 11th-13th Centuries. (Lewis wrote a 1967 book, The Assassins, extolling the virtues of this secret society.) He also identified Saudi Arabia and Egypt as two regimes legitimately singled out by the Islamic jihadists, for their corruption by "modernism."

He concluded, ominously: "For Osama bin Laden, 2001 marks the resumption of the war for the religious dominance of the world, that began in the Seventh Century If bin Laden can persuade the world of Islam to accept his views and his leadership, then a long and bitter struggle lies ahead, and not only for America. Sooner or later, al-Qaeda and related groups will clash with the other neighbors of Islam—Russia, China, India—who may prove less squeamish than the Americans in using their power against Muslims and their sanctities. If bin Laden is correct in his calculations and succeeds in his war, then a dark future awaits the world, especially the part of it that embraces Islam."

Bernard Lewis Plan, Take II

Since the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, Lewis has, not surprisingly, resurfaced in numerous locations. After all, the 85-year old British Arab Bureau mandarin has been London's point-man in the United States since 1974, when he was posted to H.G. Wells' outpost at Princeton University's Center for Advanced Studies, to secure American compliance with British geopolitical manipulations in the Middle East, the Caucasus, the Caspian Basin, and Central Asia.

To put it bluntly: British intelligence senior operator Lewis is the guiding hand behind the ongoing U.S. neo-conservative drive for a new "Thirty Years War" in Eurasia. This drive is at the heart of the ongoing coup d'état attempt against the George W. Bush Administration, which began with the Sept. 11 irregular warfare attacks on New York City and Washington.

Lewis' arrival at Princeton, after serving on the faculty of the University of London's Middle East and Africa faculty (the repository of the original India House files, long officially referred to as the Colonial Department), coincided with then-Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger's fomenting of the civil war in Lebanon. That persists to the present day, and served as a laboratory for the later "Islamic revolution" in Iran.

Lewis is no mere British quackademic. After obtaining his doctorate in the history of Islam from the University of London School of Oriental and African Studies, he joined the university faculty in 1938. From 1940-45, Lewis was, in his own understated words, "otherwise engaged," as a wartime British Military Intelligence officer, later seconded to the British Foreign Office. To this day, Lewis remains mum about his wartime "engagements."

Since arriving at Princeton, Lewis has been demonstrably responsible for every piece of strategic folly and insanity into which the United States has been suckered in Asia Minor. The Wellsian "method to his madness" has been the persistent push to eliminate the nation-state system, and launch murderous wars stretching across 

[CTRL] All-American Anthrax Scare - Made in the USA

2001-12-04 Thread William Shannon
http://www.conspiracyplanet.com/index.cfm



All-American Anthrax Scare - Made in the USA

by BARBARA HATCH ROSENBERG

A Compilation of Evidence and Comments on the Source of the Mailed Anthrax by Barbara Hatch Rosenberg (12 Nov 01)

1. ANTHRAX STRAIN

--All letter samples are the same, and correspond to AMES in the N.
Arizona State University database (which has been used for identification).

That Ames sample was obtained from Porton Down (UK) in the mid-90's (the
sample was marked "October 1932"); Porton had gotten it from USAMRIID. 

--Many anthrax strains were isolated by labs in Ames, Iowa starting with
one in 1928. There is much confusion about who has which sub-strain or
which one is meant by "Ames." 

--A 2000 paper by M. Hugh-Jones, PJ Jackson, P. Keim et al says that the
Ames strain played a central role in the US BW program. Hugh-Jones says he
learned that from David Huxsoll (Former Commander, USAMRIID). He also says
Vollum 1B was the strain stockpiled. 

--USAMRIID claims to have obtained the "Ames" strain around 1980 from the
USDA lab in Ames, Iowa.

They don't know when it was isolated. They did
transfer the strain to Porton in the '80s. They claim have no information
about the Ames strain prior to 1980. 

--The Ames strain is highly virulent and is used now in the US biodefense
program for testing vaccines etc. 

--The Ames strain recurred in nature in 1997 on a Texas goat farm.


2. WEAPONIZATION 

--The form in the senate letter: fine particles, very narrow size range
(1.5-3 microns diameter), treated so it won't clump and will float.

--An ABC reporter who writes on anthrax vaccine has privately confirmed
that four labs have told him that under the electron microscope the sample
looks just like material obtained by UNSCOM in Iraq. The Iraqi material
was spray-dried BT. I have been told that such particles are
distinguishable from milled particles. The US process did not use milling. 

--The senate sample contains silica, a drying agent used in the US
process, and not bentonite (used by the Iraqis) 

--The US weaponization process is secret. Bill Patrick, its inventor, says
it involves a COMBINATION of chemicals. Therefore, further analysis should
be able to determine whether or not the process used to make the letter
anthrax was identical to the US secret process.


All the available information is consistent with a US government lab as
the source, either of the anthrax itself or of the recipe for the US
weaponization process.

3. TESTS IN PROGRESS? 

--A study of genetic drift at certain locations in anthrax is said to be
underway at Northern Arizona State Univ. This will give an idea of how
many times the letter anthrax replicated, in comparison to the reference
strainie, whether it was grown on a very large scale (as in a State
program) or on a very small scale, as would be likely if recently made by a
terrorist. 

--Analysis of trace contaminants could be used to determine the method of
production. 

--Senator Bob Graham, Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said
that 30-40 labs in US and perhaps 100 worldwide could have produced the
anthrax mailed Daschle. Investigators can identify with great certainty
which lab produced the anthrax, Graham said, but it will be a laborious,
time-consuming process. (Chicago Tribune, 27 Oct 01).

4. LETTER ANALYSIS 

--Analysts believe the letters were not written by a Middle-Easterner.
The FBI now conjectures that the perpetrator was a lone domestic terrorist
(obviously one with a scientific background and lab experience who could
handle hazardous materials).

5. TIMING 

--There was only 1 week between 11 Sept and Sept. 18th, when the first
two letters (and probably a letter, never found, to AMI) were postmarked.
This suggests that the anthrax was already in hand before Sept 11. 

--Did the perpetrator have advance knowledge of the Sept 11 attacks?
Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld has said that he does not believe al Qaeda
was responsible for the anthrax attack, and other public officials have
increasingly indicated that the perpetrator was probably domestic. 

6. PUBLIC STATEMENTS 

At first, US officials provided miscellaneous bits of information, some
conflicting; then denied some of the earlier information, then clammed up.
Chances are they know more than they want to say. They are clearly
concentrating on domestic investigations, however (the US even rejected a
UN resolution condemning the anthrax attack, on the grounds that it might
have been domestic terrorism). 

--The Secretary of Health and Human Services said that some of the
relevant information is classified, and some is restricted by the FBI.

7. SPECULATION 

--The perpetrator was not only an American scientist but one with access
to US weaponized anthrax or one who had been taught by an expert how to
make it. 

--An astute observer has pointed out that the letters warned of anthrax
or the need to take antibiotics, making it possible for those who handled
the letters

A German warning to the world


by Bernhard Schreiber



Bernhard Schreiber was born in 1942 in Stuttgart after his father died in
action as an officer of the Luftwaffe. After his education in Germany he
studied journalism in America and travelled extensively as a freelance
journalist. During the last five years he has been researching the material
for this book and decided to publish the German Edition as a first result of
his research. He will be continuing his research with colleagues. and he has
received a grant from a large university for this purpose. When his work does
not take him abroad he lives with his family in Germany


TRANSLATOR'S NOTE

When I first heard of Bernhard Schreiber's work I was convinced that a work
along these lines was needed in English.
I met Mr. Schreiber and he consented to his work being translated and I am,
in fact, indebted to him for his help in ensuring that his exact meaning was
put into English. It is refreshing to work with an author who can cross check
your translation. He has edited certain errors and improved the documents
section which he felt was lacking in the original.
My thanks to C.S. Carr for his assistance with the translation of the
documents and to Miss P. Carter for the typing and retyping.

H. R. Martindale
It is my desire that this book be distributed as widely as possible; and thus
I hereby not only give my consent, but urge the distribution, translation,
publication, reprinting and quoting of this book in part or in whole by any
person, group or organisation that may wish to so do.
Unfortunately my financial situation made it impossible to distribute this
book as widely as I would have liked, and I hope that the step I have taken
will inspire others to actively participate in this German warning to the
world.

THE AUTHOR
I have taken the liberty of scanning this book, and publishing it on the
internet because, like the Author, I believe that it should be read and

DEDICATION

This book is humbly dedicated to the memory of countless ordinary people -
those men, women, children and babies of many races and beliefs, whose lives
were taken because they were considered less than perfect and, therefore,
unworthy to live.
I hope that this small book will serve in its own way to keep their memory
alive and that it will help to remind us all of the price we have to pay when
extremists have the power to decide upon our right to live.

CIA's conspiracy revealed in Mazar's Prison revolt

Updated on 2001-12-03 12:15:41

DHARKI, December 03 (PNS): Prisoners of War (POWs) at Qala-I-Jangi had not revolted but it was a pre planned massacre which was plotted by unholy trio of US CIA and Israeli troops in collaboration with Northern Alliance soldiers.

This was disclosed by a Pakistani Extremist and the Taliban aide, Hafiz Abdul Malik who fled to Pakistan after escaping from the brutal killings of the Pakistani Taliban at Qala-I-Jangi, Mazar-e-Sharif.

Unfolding the grisly event of genocide in a meeting with journalists, he said that the prisoners of war kept in the Qilla included Pakistani volunteers, Taliban soldiers and Chechens and Arab Mujahideen. Pakistani Mujahideen hailed from the inner Sindh areas, Karachi and other parts of the country, he added.

"It was not a revolt from POWs in any way but a planned conspiracy from US, Israel and Northern Alliance coalition agencies and forces, he shuddered while narrating the horrendous event.

The prisoners were unarmed and were fired upon with the light guns and later in collaboration with Northern Alliance Forces heavy guns were used to exterminate them, he added. Hundreds of prisoners were killed brutally within minutes.

The US forces for giving it the name of revolt opened aerial firing to give impression that Taliban have captured the arms. Later the US warplanes bombarded the site, he maintained.

Giving further details, he said that those who survived were captured by US forces and were crushed under tanks with their arms and legs tied.

"I and some other Mujahideen escaped the bloody scene in the dark of night", he could not contain his tears which made their way to the earth to mourn over the unnamed Mujahideen whose mutilated parts implant a slap on the faces of so called champions of human rights.

End.

Genetic evidence links Jews to their ancient tribe
By Judy Siegel
JERUSALEM (November 20) - Genetic evidence continues to provide additional proof to the claims that the Jewish people are descended from a common ancient Israelite father: Despite being separated for over 1,000 years, Sephardi Jews of North African origin are genetically indistinguishable from their brethren from Iraq, according to The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. They also proved that Sephardi Jews are very close genetically to the Jews of Kurdistan, and only slight differences exist between these two groups and Ashkenazi Jews from Europe. These conclusions are reached in an article published recently in the American Journal of Human Genetics and written by Prof. Ariella Oppenheim of the Hebrew University (HU) and Hadassah-University Hospital in Ein Kerem. Others involved are German doctoral student Almut Nebel, Dr. Marina Faerman of HU, Dr. Dvora Filon of Hadassah-University Hospital, and other colleagues from Germany and India. The researchers conducted blood tests of Ashkenazi, Sephardi and Kurdish Jews and examined their Y chromosomes, which are carried only by males. They then compared them with those of various Arab groups - Palestinians, Beduins, Jordanians, Syrians and Lebanese - as well as to non-Arab populations from Transcaucasia - Turks, Armenians and Moslem Kurds. The study is based on 526 Y chromosomes typed by the Israeli team and additional data on 1,321 individuals from 12 populations. The typing of the Jewish groups was performed at the National Genome Center at HU's Silberman Institute of Life Sciences. The Fertile Crescent of the Middle East was one of the few centers in which the transition from hunting-gathering to permanent settlement and agriculture took place. Genetic studies suggest that migrating Neolithic farmers dispersed their technological innovations and domesticated animals from the Middle East towards Europe, North Africa and Southwest Asia. Studies of Y chromosomes have become powerful tools for the investigation of the genetic history of males, since these chromosomes are transmitted from fathers to sons. Surprisingly, the study shows a closer genetic affinity by Jews to the non-Jewish, non-Arab populations in the northern part of the Middle East than to Arabs. These findings are consistent with known cultural links that existed among populations in the Fertile Crescent in early history, and indicate that the Jews are direct descendants of the early Middle Eastern core populations, which later divided into distinct ethnic groups speaking different languages. Previous investigations by the HU researchers suggested a common origin for Jewish and non-Jewish populations living in the Middle East. The current study refines and delineates that connection. It is believed that the majority of today's Jews - not including converts and non-Jews with whom Jews intermarried - descended from the ancient Israelis that lived in the historic Land of Israel until the destruction of the Second Temple and their dispersal into the Diaspora. The researchers say that a genetic analysis of the chromosomes of Jews from various countries show that there was practically no genetic intermixing between them and the host populations among which they were scattered during their dispersion - whether in Eastern Europe, Spain, Portugal or North Africa. A particularly intriguing case illustrating this is that of the Kurdish Jews, said to be the descendants of the Ten Tribes of Israel who were exiled in 723 BCE. to the area known today as Kurdistan, located in Northern Iraq, Iran and Eastern Turkey. They continued to live there as a separate entity until their immigration to Israel in the 1950s. The Kurdish Jews of today show a much greater affinity to their fellow Jews elsewhere than to the Kurdish Moslems.






[CTRL] Eyewitness Reports Persist Of Bombs At WTC Collapse

Eyewitness Reports Persist Of 
Bombs At WTC Collapse
By Christopher Bollyn
Exclusive to American Free Press
12-2-1

Despite reports from numerous eyewitnesses and experts, including news reporters on the scene, who heard or saw explosions immediately before the collapse of the World Trade Center, there has been virtual silence in the mainstream media.   

Television viewers watching the horrific events of Sept. 11 saw evidence of explosions before the towers collapsed. Televised images show what appears to be a huge explosion occurring near ground level, in the vicinity of the 47-story Salomon Brothers Building, known as WTC 7, prior to the collapse of the first tower.   

Van Romero, an explosives expert and former director of the Energetic Materials Research and Testing Center at New Mexico Tech, said on Sept. 11, "My opinion is, based on the videotapes, that after the airplanes hit the World Trade Center there were some explosive devices inside the buildings that caused the towers to collapse."   

The collapse of the structures resembled the controlled implosions used to demolish old structures and was "too methodical to be a chance result of airplanes colliding with the structures," Romero told The Albuquerque Journal hours after the attack.   

Implosions are violent collapses inwards, which are used to demolish buildings in areas of high density, to prevent damage to surrounding buildings. Precision-timed explosives are placed on strategic load-bearing columns and beams to cause the controlled collapse.   

Demolition experts say that towers are the most difficult buildings to bring down in a controlled manner. A tower tends to fall like a tree, unless the direction of its fall is controlled by directional charges. The WTC towers "smokestacked" neatly, falling within the boundaries of their foundations.   

Skeptics say this could not have happened coincidentally and it must have been caused by strategically placed and precisely timed internal charges. Videotape images may reveal these internal charges precipitating the controlled demolition of the towers and WTC 7.   

Romero is vice president of research at New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, which studies explosive materials and the effects of explosions on buildings, aircraft and other structures, and often assists in forensic investigations into terrorist attacks, often by setting off similar explosions and studying the effects.   
After being hit by the aircraft, the twin towers appeared to be stable. Then without warning, at 9:58 a.m. the south tower imploded vertically downwards, 53 minutes after being hit. At 10:28, 88 minutes after being struck, the north tower collapsed.   

"It would be difficult for something from the plane to trigger an event like that," Romero said. If explosions did cause the towers to collapse, "It could have been a relatively small amount of explosives placed in strategic points," he said.   

"One of the things terrorist events are noted for is a diversionary attack and secondary device," Romero said. Attackers detonate an initial, diversionary explosion, in this case the collision of the planes into the towers, which brings emergency personnel to the scene, then detonate a second explosion.   

Ten days after the attack, following criticism of his initial remarks, Romero did an about-face in his analysis of the collapse, "Certainly the fire is what caused the building to fail," he told the Journal on Sept. 21.   

The twin towers were struck by Boeing 767's carrying approximately 23,000 gallons of fuel.   

However, there is other information that lends credence to Romero's controversial scenario. One eyewitness whose office is near the World Trade Center told AFP that he was standing among a crowd of people on Church Street, about two-and-a-half blocks from the South tower, when he saw "a number of brief light sources being emitted from inside the building between floors 10 and 15." He saw about six of these brief flashes, accompanied by "a crackling sound" before the tower collapsed. Each tower had six central support columns.   

One of the first firefighters in the stricken second tower, Louie Cacchioli, 51, told People Weekly on Sept. 24: "I was taking firefighters up in the elevator to the 24th floor to get in position to evacuate workers. On the last trip up a bomb went off. We think there were bombs set in the building."   

Kim White, 32, an employee on the 80th floor, also reported hearing an explosion. "All of a sudden the building shook, then it started to sway. We didn't know what was going on," she told People. "We got all our people on the floor into the stairwell . . . at that time we all thought it was a fire . . .We got down as far as the 74th floor . . . then there was another explosion."   

The accepted theory is that as the fires raged in the towers, the steel cores in each building were heated to 2,000 degrees

Smedley Butler on Interventionism
-- Excerpt from a speech delivered in 1933, by Major General Smedley Butler,
USMC.

War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something
that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside
group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few
at the expense of the masses.

I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation
comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that
when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and
goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the
soldiers follow the flag.

I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of
the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the
defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other
reason is simply a racket.

There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind
to. It has its finger men to point out enemies, its muscle men to destroy
enemies, its brain men to plan war preparations, and a Big Boss
Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism.

It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison.
Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty- three years and four months in
active military service as a member of this country's most agile military
force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second
Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time
being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the
Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.

I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it.
Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my
own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended
animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with
everyone in the military service.

I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in
1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank
boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central
American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of
racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking
house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where have I heard that name before?).
I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in
1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way
unmolested.

During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell
racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few
hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I
operated on three continents.

[CTRL] Switzerland and the gun

2001-12-04 Thread Bill Richer

-Caveat Lector-

WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War!

Switzerland and the gun


Switzerland has long maintained its armed neutrality

Guns are deeply rooted within Swiss culture - but the gun crime rate
is so low that statistics are not even kept.
The country has a population of six million, but there are estimated
to be at least two million publicly-owned firearms, including about
600,000 automatic rifles and 500,000 pistols.

This is in a very large part due to Switzerland's unique system of
national defence, developed over the centuries.

Instead of a standing, full-time army, the country requires every
man to undergo some form of military training for a few days or
weeks a year throughout most of their lives.

Between the ages of 21 and 32 men serve as frontline troops. They
are given an M-57 assault rifle and 24 rounds of ammunition which
they are required to keep at home.

Once discharged, men serve in the Swiss equivalent of the US
National Guard, but still have to train occasionally and are given
bolt rifles. Women do not have to own firearms, but are encouraged
to.

Few restrictions

In addition to the government-provided arms, there are few
restrictions on buying weapons. Some cantons restrict the carrying
of firearms - others do not.

The government even sells off surplus weaponry to the general public
when new equipment is introduced.

Guns and shooting are popular national pastimes. More than 200,000
Swiss attend national annual marksmanship competitions.

But despite the wide ownership and availability of guns, violent
crime is extremely rare. There are only minimal controls at public
buildings and politicians rarely have police protection.

Mark Eisenecker, a sociologist from the University of Zurich told
BBC News Online that guns are anchored in Swiss society and that
gun control is simply not an issue.

Some pro-gun groups argue that Switzerland proves their contention
that there is not necessarily a link between the availability of
guns and violent crime in society.

Low crime

But other commentators suggest that the reality is more complicated.

Switzerland is one of the world's richest countries, but has
remained relatively isolated.

It has none of the social problems associated with gun crime seen in
other industrialised countries like drugs or urban deprivation.

Despite the lack of rigid gun laws, firearms are strictly connected
to a sense of collective responsibility.

From an early age Swiss men and women associate weaponry with being
called to defend their country.

Bush Law Chief Tried to Drop Habeas Corpus

FROM THE TIMES OF LONDON
BY ROLAND WATSON THE

Bush Administration sought the power to suspend all suspects' rights in the
most extreme example of its squeeze on civil liberties since September 11.
According to a draft of the anti-terrorism Bill which was published yesterday,
John Ashcroft, the Attorney-General, initially wanted to do away with the
fundamental legal tenet of habeas corpus for terrorist suspects.

Such a move would have allowed the authorities to hold suspects in secret
and indefinitely without charging them or producing them before a judge.

A secret first draft of Mr Ashcroft's Bill included a section titled Suspension
of the Writ of Habeas Corpus. Its inclusion has astounded some members
of Congress. James Sensenbrenner, chairman of the House Judiciary
Committee, told Newsweek magazine: That stuck out like a sore thumb. It
was the first thing I crossed out.

Habeas corpus establishes the requirement on authorities to produce a
suspect before a judge at regular intervals so that the court, and therefore the
public, is satisfied that the detention is lawful.

The suspension of the writ did not make it into the final draft of Mr Ashcroft's
Bill but it was seized on as another example of how far the Administration is
prepared to go.

Mr Ashcroft faces a grilling on Capitol Hill this week for other measures in his
postSeptember 11 crackdown, in which thousands of young Muslim men
have faced questioning and detention.

It was also revealed over the weekend that he wanted to renounce the
restrictions on the FBI from carrying out covert surveillance of religious and
political organisations. The proposal would override protections put in place
in the 1970s after the death of J. Edgar Hoover, the notoriously hardline FBI
Director, after the agency admitted that it had spent much of the 1960s and
early 1970s spying on Martin Luther King, the Black Panthers, the Ku Klux
Klan and other groups that it considered dangerous.

Latest polls show that the average American is broadly supportive of the
restrictions on civil liberties: 86 per cent believe that the Government has not
overstepped the mark.


If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so
long as I'm the dictator.

From: Steve [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 So, I wonder if Bush and Co. (oil, etc.) have killed more than 5000
innocent
 civilians? ;-(  But I guess it will be worth it because what is 5000
innocent
 souls if we Amerikans can get some big oil profit$ and even dominate the
 Mideast for 'national security reasons'.

 I have to wonder if it would not be much more economical to fund the
 development of solar and other renewable energy technologies currently
 available, including commercially viable windpower. And what about funding
 warm fusion, and hydrogen power and other promising energy technologies?

Economical, maybe, but exploitable, nope. The per-$ Bush is getting
personally from his investments is far more than he'd ever get from solar,
unless he were a genuis.

 Why? Because many of you voted for the Bush Dynasty and the Oil and Gas
 interests, and you are getting exactly what you voted for:  War,
Pollution,
 Global Warming, and Recession.  I hope you are happy. (Many of you are
 very happy, unfortunately. Have a nice day.  :-(

You don't think that Gore would have propogated oil at just about the same
rate? H ...

[CTRL] @ 1 Time...

At One Time...

There were 'worms' running under the Earth. It was a time of catastrophe on
the surface. Those of the reptile and those of the mammal who survived, lived
in the caverns and large hollow areas previously created below. This is the
prelude to the fourth world known in some locations as the flood, but having
other primary causes.

Nope. :-(

But if we get involved in the two major parties and we are not killed or 'more
likely' neutralized in the process, we might have a chance.

How's that for a realistic answer?
